TIGER HEAD COACH Chris Bartels 1991 Great Midwest Conference Coach-of-the-Year Fifth year at Memphis State MSU Career Recordr35^35=7- qq~^,^ Graduate of Bowling Green State Born: 7-19-51, Teaneck, NJ Wife: Victoria 5!f" Children: Teddy, 4; Ross, 2 '<> -J

Tiger head coach Chris Bartels has lifted the Memphis State soccer program to a new level in four years at the helm and hopes to continue that trend as he looks forward to his fifth season. Never before has the MSU soccer team faced such an imposing schedule. With the exception of crosstown rival Christian Brothers University, the Tigers face all Division I opponents in their 17-game slate. Ten of the 1992 Tiger opponents had winning records in 1991, and of the seven teams with losing marks, three missed winning seasons by only one game. Bartels' Tigers have an impressive nine-game home schedule, including 1991 Final- Four semi-finalist University of St. Louis. Since his arrival in the spring of 1988, Bartels has worked for improvements to Echles Field. In the summer of 1992, Bartels saw his vision materialize and his hard work pay off. With the help of the Tiger Clubs and the MSU Athletic Department, Echles Field underwent a major facelift this summer, including seating for 800, a new Scoreboard and a freshly sodded field. Bartels strives for excellence in the classroom as well as on the field by recruiting student-athletes. His soccer program was recognized by MSU in 1992 for its high graduation rate. Besides signing some of Memphis' finest student-athletes, his recruiting base includes players representing six nations and three states. A New Jersey native, Bartels attended River Dell High School in Oradell, N.J., before signing with Bowling Green State University on a soccer scholarship. During his junioryearat BGSU, Bartels worked in public relations for the New York Cosmos. After graduating in 1973 with a degree in journalism and public relations, Bartels stayed at BGSU as an assistant coach until he became a player-coach forthe Athletes in Action soccerteam. In 1980, Bartels returned to BGSU as an assistant coach and physical education instructor while earning a master's degree in physical education. Bartels, who has worked as General Manager or coach for three professional soccer teams, arrived in Memphis in 1982 as an assistant coach and Player Personnel Director for the Memphis Americans of the Major Indoor Soccer League. Later, he served as the head coach and General Manager of the Kalamazoo Kangaroos in the American Indoor Soccer Association. From 1986 to 1987 Bartels was General Manager of the Memphis Storm. Bartels left the Storm to enter private business.

Carbognani signed his first contract with the Argentinian "team Independiente in 1973 and played a year before moving to Santelmo where his team won the second division championship. In 1979 Carbognani joined the New York Cosmos of the North American Soccer League until he was traded to the Memphis Rogues. He spent three years with the Memphis Americans. The Memphis Storm of the National Professional Soccer League acquired his rights in 1987 where he played until 1990. He became a player- coach in 1990. Carbognani closed his professional career in 1991 with the Chicago Power.

LARRY CRESON Second year at Memphis State Born: 10-5-64, Memphis, TN

Larry Creson returned to Memphis State in 1991 after a ^_ , f : .^successful soccer career at Memphis State where he — played from 1983 to 1984. The native Memphian ranks fourth in all-time scoring at MSU with 24 goals and 57 points. He also ranks third for most points in a season with 35.


1992 OUTLOOK The Memphis State Soccer team will sport a new look for 1992, with new faces, new bleachers and a new Scoreboard. Coach Chris Bartels called this year's recruiting class "the best I've ever seen," which will complement a great returning cast. The '92 squad has the best team speed Bartels said he has ever had, and the scoring should be up. Newcomer Thomas Ohimeier, whom Bartels expects to step in for Jim Hink, joins Patrice Lhommeau and Brent Jordan as midfielders and should relieve some of the defensive pressure that forwards Gareth O'Sullivan and David Norris faced last year, when the Tigers played with only two forwards. Bartels expects O'Sullivan, the Tigers leading scorerthe last two years, to have his best year yet. "Numbers are not indicative of what he can do," Bartels said. "I think he should be putting better numbers on the board." Junior Alan Redd will move from defense to forward this year. Redd, a former walk-on with great athletic ability, scored two goals against soccer powerhouse University of Evansville last spring. "He's dueto take pressure off of Gareth because of his speed," Bartels said of Redd. Lhommeau has come a long way since he first stepped foot on campus in 1989, Bartels said, having a good season last year and a great spring. Lhommeau, a strong goal scorer, is playing with maturity and confidence and should help put points on the board. The defense will be led by returning seniors Rick Morris, Frank Pileggi and Scott Spencer. All have started since their freshman season and have grown up together. "We've given up a lot of bad goals," Bartels said. "But that's part of the learning process and now is the time to start teaching instead of being taught a lesson on the field." Co-Captain Morris will anchor the middle of the defense. The defensive specialist, who scored two goals last year, will be a stopper. Co-Captain Pileggi hasdone a great job making the transition from midfield to defense. A good leader, Pileggi gives his all on every ball and is also a great attacker. "Pileggi probably had the best goal of the season in a 1-0 win against Marquette," Bartels said. Senior Scott Spencer, who will move to sweeper this year, "gives 120 percent all of the time and will play every ball like it's the last ball on earth," Bartels said. Spencer's speed, endurance and heart will make him a good sweeper, Bartels added. The goalie position leaves a question mark with two-year starter Todd Scarpace gone. Newcomers Brooks Monaghan, Jacob Meyer and Jonathan Smith will be vying for the spot. Monaghan, who played at Christian Brothers High School, is a transfer from the University of Evansville and played on the under-20 national team this summer. Meyer, from Vancouver, Wash., comes from an excellent program


1992 OUTLOOK and has some good experience. Smith, a walk-on from Murfreesboro, Tenn., also will work for the starting slot. Bartels expects these three men to give the Tigers plenty of depth and good experience at the goalkeeper position. The 1992 recruiting class includes five players from three-time Tennessee State Champion Christian Brothers High School and two University of Evansville transfers who played on two state championship Christian Brothers teams. Damon Davis, Philip McDonnell, Carter Fairley, Greg Gallina and Tommy Smith are part of the freshman class that knows howto win and expects no less. Bartels also landed several transfers from established winning programs. Russell Church, a midfielder and defender, is a transfer from undefeated and 1991 NAIA National Champion College of Boca Raton. Keith Gardino and Trey Naron, who transfered from 1990 Final Four finalist University of Evansville, will provide needed depth and experience. Church, Naron and Gardino will be sophomores this season and have three years of eligibility remaining. Bartels hopes Thomas Ohlmeier, from Oldenburg, Germany, can step into the center-midfield slot, filling the shoes of first team All-Great Midwest Conference selection Jim Hink. Bartels compares White Station High product Justin Rose to sweeper Scott Spencer. "He works hard defensively," Bartels said of Rose, and "he will get down and do the dirty work." Bartels said Gerald Turner of Harding Academy might well be the sleeper of the class, adding "this kid has great skills and great athletic ability." The soccer team faces what may well be the toughest schedule ever. The Tigers open their season at home September 6 against Vanderbilt and play Southern Indiana on September 7 before hitting the road. The 17-game schedule includes six consecutive games on the road. The road trip begins September 13 at Arkansas-Little Rock. The Tigers then head south to face 1991 Metro Conference champion University of South Florida and the University of Central Florida. Before returning to Echles field, the Tigers face Great Midwest Conference foes DePaul, Marquette and Alabama-Birmingham. "This will be the toughest schedule we've had," Bartels said. "But each year we try to upgrade the schedule." The Tigers return to Echles Field October 7, where they will play seven of their last nine games, against Western Kentucky. Then the Tigers face 1991 Great Midwest Conference Champion, St. Louis. The Billikens, who lost in the semi-finals of the 1991 Final Four, had a 20-2-2 record last year and Bartels expects them to be as good as ever. " We've got a great home schedule, which I think will be great for the community," said Bartels. The Tigers conclude the regular season with three games at home before heading to St Louis for the Great Midwest Tournament. Echles Field, the home of the Tigers, had a $14,000 facelift over the^ summer and now has a seating capacity of 700.

MEMPHIS STATE UNIVERSITY The roots of Memphis State University date back to September 15,1912, with the establishment and opening of the West Tennessee StateNormal School, which provided for the training of primary and secondary education teachers. However, the seed for the normal school's creation were sown three years earlier, in 1909,when the Tennessee General Assembly passed a general education law calling for the establishment and maintenance of three normal schools, one located in each of the three grand divisions of the state. The eastern edge of Memphis became the site for the West Tennessee State Normal School, which in 1925 became the West Tennessee State Teachers College. In 1941, the college's curriculum in liberal arts was expanded and the name was changed to Memphis State College, an institution serving approximately 4,000 students. The undergraduate program was reorganized into three schools and a graduate school was added in 1951. On July 1,1957, Memphis State achieved itsstatus as a university and has since expanded its degree programs to serve a student population of over 20,000 individuals. Memphis State's campus is situated in a quiet residential section of Memphis. The campus is unique in that all buildings are constructed in matching form and one does not expect a university in a metropolitan area of more than a million citizens to have such a large and beautiful campus with a park-like atmosphere. South campus, which was a Veterans Hospital for many years, was donated to the university. The Murphy Athletic Center and married student housing are located on south campus. The primary purpose of Memphis State University is to advance learning. The University is dedicated first to the traditional ideals of learning by focusing its attention and efforts upon the creation, transmission and application of knowledge. Secondly, it is committed to goals that are utilitarian in preparing students to serve in a variety of professions and occupations and in providing services to society for improving the quality of life and environment. Through instruction, research and public service the University offers a diversity of learning opportunities for the pursuit of knowledge and truth in an atmosphere of free inquiry and open discussion. A community of learning, the university exists to nurture students in achieving intellectual competence, maturity and development.

1992 Great Midwest Conference Tournament November 6-8 at Billiken Sports Center St. Louis, MO 36


THE GREAT MIDWEST CONFERENCE Things like this are supposed to take time. But it did not take much time for the Great Midwest Conference to make an impact on the national scene. The nation's newest NCAA Division I conference, the Great Midwest celebrated its first season by sending a pair of teams to the semifinals of an NCAA championship. The St. Louis soccer team was the first Great Midwest squad to make the run at a national title. After earning the inaugural conference soccer championship in November, the Billikens advanced all the way to the national semifinal game before losing to eventual champion Virginia in overtime. Cincinnati's men's basketball team provided the second shot at a national title. The Bearcats claimed the first men's basktball conference title en route to a run to the NCAA Final Four before falling to Michigan. It should not be a surprise the Great Midwest met with success. From its formation in November, 1990, the six-member league has been tabbed with the "can't miss" label. "WeVe always known this was going to be a very good conference," commissioner Mike Slive said. 'What we had no way of knowing was how quickly itwould happen. Throughout our planning, we expected that we would be a high quality athletics conference. Having two teams reach the national semifinals brought that recognition quickly. "In turn, my job becomes easier. Ayear ago, when I would meet someone, I would have to explain what the Great Midwest Conference was. No more. Now, there is a sense of recognition." The Great Midwest could quickly be recognized in even more sports. Overall, the conference sponsors championships in 15 sports. In addition to soccer and men's basketball, the championship sports are volleyball, basketball, tennis, indoor trackand field, outdoor track and field, cross country forwomen along with baseball, golf, tennis, indoor track and field, outdoor track and field and cross country and riflery for men. "This is more than a men's basketball conference," Slive said. "I'm very proud of the fact that we were represented in postseason play in soccer, women's basketball and volleyball as well as men's basketball." In fact, the Great Midwest earned its first automatic qualification in volleyball. The winner of the 1993 conference title gets a trip to the NCAA Championship. There also was plenty of academic success. One conference athlete earned GTE Academic AllAmerican honors and another was honored on the district level. Academic success should continue. The Great Midwest is committed to academic success for its student athletes and maintains stringent guidelines regarding initial and continuing eligibility. Great Midwest institutions are more than athletic rivals. The league is developing an academic consortium to allow students enrolled in one institution to attend one or more of the other five while earning credit at the original institution. Consortium plans also include a visiting lecture series coinciding with athletic contests. Slive, formerly a Chicago-based attorney who specialized in sports law, sees more success on the horizon. "We had an exciting inaugural year, truly a shining start," he said. "But this is only the beginning. One of the great things about starting something new is that you can take all the best parts of the rest and mix them together. That is happening with the Great Midwest Conference. "Obviously, when you call yourselves 'the great ...', you have high expectations. WeVe already achieved some of our expectations. Still, the best is yet to come." Slive heads the conference offices, which are located in downtown Chicago. Under his direction, the conferencedeveloped asound governance structure under the direction of the league's presidents, which make up the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors meets four times annually and is the body to which the commissioner reports. GREAT MIDWEST PERSONNEL Commissioner: Mike Slive Asst. Comm./Med!a Relations: Tim Stephens Asst.
