2011 Men’s Soccer Season Outlook

Bears try to find perfect blend of veterans, newcomers Following an 8-7-3 overall record in 2010, men’s soccer head coach Jon Leamy has a chance to reach the 200-win plateau this season. Leamy, who has sported a record of .500 or better in 15 seasons with the Bears, enters the 2011 season with a career mark of 195-137-36 (.579). Despite graduating MVC Goalkeeper of the Year Alex Riggs, the Bears return four players who received All-MVC honors last season. Gerard Barbero grabbed first-team accolades, while Heath Melugin and Jordan Hoffman were named to the second team and honorable mention list, respectively. After earning valuable playing time during his rookie campaign, Dan Williams was named to the MVC All-Freshman team. With a senior class that has combined for 218 total starts, Leamy believes there will be a nice blend of veterans and younger players contributing to this year’s team. “Our seniors have logged a lot of minutes for us over the past couple of years,” Leamy said. “I think that’s a great nucleus for us to start in terms of the direction this team is going to go. We also have sophomores and juniors that we’re going to rely on to see meaningful minutes, in addition to the incoming class.” The Missouri State coaching staff was excited to see such good battles going on for both starting roles and key backup spots. Because of the healthy competition leading up to the regular season, the Bears’ head coach is optimistic that his squad will be versatile with some welcomed depth. GOALKEEPERS One of the biggest holes the Bears have to fill is at goalkeeper. Last year’s MVC Goalkeeper of the Year, Alex Riggs, went down in the MSU record books as second all-time in goals against average, minutes in goal and games started in goal. He also sits in the top five in all-time wins at keeper with 27. Riggs signed a contract in February to play for Major League Soccer’s Columbus Crew. “We have three guys working really hard and out of that, we’re going to have somebody emerge,” Leamy noted. “We’re going to be different, but I think we’re going to be every bit as effective with our defending and goalkeeping.” Vying for the starting spot is redshirt junior Nikolas Markos with two years of eligibility remaining, redshirt sophomore Trevor Spangenberg, who is in his third year with the program, and redshirt freshman Andrew Riggs. Markos and Spangenberg have each played in one match during their time with the program. Markos logged 11 minutes of action

2011 Bears Men’s Soccer

against Bradley in 2009, while Spangenberg came in as the backup against IUPUI last season and helped preserve the 3-0 shutout. DEFENDERS Missouri State aims to continue its prominence as a stingy defense after allowing just 14 goals during the 2010 season. The 14 goals were the fewest allowed in a single season since 1998 when the Bears held their opponents to 13. Goalkeeper Alex Riggs and his backfield teamed up to shut out 10 of its 18 opponents. The backline could see a completely different look from last year. Leamy indicated that he was going to infuse new players into the backfield whether they were returners or newcomers. Senior Thomas Vania and junior Ben Griffiths both started all 18 matches for the Bears’ defense, but could expand their roles this year. “Griffiths and Vania have logged the most minutes back there for us,” Leamy said, “but they have the ability and versatility to possibly play some different spots for us.” Returning letterman Callen Roselieb is primed to help out at the center back position after making huge strides during his freshman year. The sophomore appeared in 17 of the 18 matches played last season and started in nine of those contests. Other returners who have gametime experience in the backfield include sophomores Jarred Clark, who is coming off of a season-ending injury in 2010, and Sean Wilkins. The incoming class that includes freshmen

James Fawke and Andrew Turner, and transfers Danny Frid and Ryan Moses, also looks to put its stamp on the program. Leamy said the newcomers were really working hard to adapt and have been growing day after day. MIDFIELDERS/FORWARDS Barring any significant injuries, the Bears will have a deep lineup in which they will be able to mix and match at midfielder and forward. The top two scorers from last year’s team return in seniors Heath Melugin (seven goals) and Gerard Barbero (five goals). In addition, senior Jordan Hoffman tallied two goals and junior Eric Martin registered his first collegiate goal. Senior David Buckenheimer, who recorded three goals his freshman season and two during his sophomore year, saw a drop off in shot production, but still contributed in a big way during the 2010 season. Buckenheimer ended the season as the leader in assists with four. Sophomore Dan Williams will also be able to provide a boost up front after logging nine starts during his first season with the Bears. “I see a lot of opportunities for us to score some goals from different players without one being dominant,” Leamy added. “We’re not going to be a team with a 15-20 goal scorer and I’ve never liked those teams anyway. I think you will see goals coming from different spots on the field and from a variety of players.” Among the other Bears that will play a significant role up front will be Jared Gain, Matt Bray and Cole Alexander, all of which saw playing time last year. Bray and Gain appeared in 15 and 13 games, respectively, while Alexander got onto the field in six matches.

2011 Men’s Soccer Season Outlook

Schedule to help with national notoriety, RPI standings

There are newcomers aplenty that will be looking to make a splash at the midfield and forward positions in their first seasons on the MSU campus. Seven freshmen will be pushing to make an impact on the field with Ricky Hoegg, Springfield native Parker Maher, Hayden Sander, Chris Roth, Brandon Besong, Pedro Cardenas Gutierrez and Ryan Navarre. Of the three goals scored against Northeastern State and Columbia College, two were put into the back of the net by Hoegg. NEWCOMERS The Bears added 11 new players for the 2011 seasons, all of which bring a different element to the pitch. Like most situations, the newcomers have been adjusting to the speed of the game, but have been picking things up nicely. “We have an incoming class in which we hope some of those guys can step up more, practice-to-practice, week-to-week, and make some type of impact,” Leamy said. “I think we have some good possibilities with the younger group and we just have to figure out the best combinations to maximize our depth at each position.” NON-CONFERENCE SCHEDULE The Bears are gunning for their fourth NCAA Tournament appearance and the coaching staff believes that there are some meaningful matches that will put the team in a position to succeed. “We have a great schedule in tact that can really help us in terms of national notoriety and RPI standings,” Leamy said. “We will see

a lot of teams from different regions that will allow us to get a good gauge of what kind of soccer is being played.” Missouri State will begin the season with home contests against Belmont and Tulsa. The Tulsa game on Sept. 1 will be a rematch of last year in which the Bears fell to the Golden Hurricane, 2-1, in double overtime. Tulsa is one of three teams on MSU’s schedule to begin the season ranked or receiving votes. The Bears then set out on a five-game road trip with stops at Memphis, Albuquerque, Cincinnati and Saint Louis. While in Albuquerque, Missouri State will play in the TLC Plumbing, Heating and Cooling Lobo Invitational where they will take on Cal. StateNorthridge and Columbia University. Oral Roberts will visit Plaster Field on Sept. 27 before the Bears hit the road for a rematch with Northwestern. Last season, the Wildcats posted a 1-0 victory over MSU and Leamy said his squad is already fired up and excited to play Northwestern again. After losing games to both teams last year, UMKC and No. 5 Southern Methodist will serve as good tests for the Bears in between conference matchups. “The team wants to play the best,” Leamy commented. “If we could play the No. 1 team in the country every weekend, we’d sign up. That’s the only way you’ll really see the best so that you can measure your team and make adjustments.” MISSOURI VALLEY CONFERENCE Missouri State kicks off its conference slate with two matches at home, beginning with

Central Arkansas on Oct. 8 and Creighton on Oct. 12. For the second year in a row, the Bears will open their conference schedule up with Central Arkansas. In 2010, Missouri State squeaked out a 1-0 win in double overtime against the Bears. Creighton begins the 2011 season ranked No. 10 in the National Soccer Coaches Association of America Preseason Top 25. “Once you hit October, you really start to focus on the conference season,” Leamy said. “Hopefully we can put some things together and play our best soccer towards the end of the season when it matters the most.” On Oct. 15, the Bears will visit Evansville before a two-game break with non-conference foes UMKC and SMU. MSU will then face Bradley on the road on Oct. 26 prior to returning home for the Living Our Legacy match on Oct. 30. This year’s Living Our Legacy game will again feature the Bears and SIU Edwardsville. Last season, Missouri State played to a 0-0 draw in the first meeting and came up short in the MVC Tournament Semifinals, losing 2-1 to the Cougars. The Bears head into November with just one match before the MVC Tournament. They will pay a visit to Des Moines, Iowa, to wrap up the regular season against Drake on Nov. 5. Following the regular season, the Bears will travel to Omaha, Neb., for the MVC Tournament Nov. 9-13. “The Conference is going to have quite a bit of parity,“ Leamy added. “You only get to play six league games so every result is going to factor into how we do in the conference race.” According to the MVC preseason poll voted on by coaches, the Bears are picked to finish third behind Creighton and Bradley. Drake, SIU Edwardsville, Evansville and Central Arkansas round out the poll. Seniors Heath Melugin and Gerard Barbero were named to the preseason All-MVC team.

JON LEAMY Head Coach

20th Season Overall Record: 195-137-36 (.579) Alma Mater: Roanoke College, 1982

Jon Leamy enters his 20th season as head coach of the Missouri State men’s soccer team and has transformed the Bears into a nationally-recognized program. The veteran coach is just five wins shy of his 200th career win. In 2005, Leamy reached the 150-win plateau with a victory over Western Kentucky. Last season, the Bears finished 8-7-3, including a 4-1-2 mark in the MVC to finish third in the MVC regular season race. The winningest coach in school history, Leamy has produced a 195-137-36 (.579) record during his Missouri State tenure. The four-time conference Coach of the Year and three-time Midwest Region Coach of the Year has produced 81 all-conference selections and 51 all-academic picks. Leamy is the winningest active MVC coach with 67 career victories in conference. Last season marked the 16th-consecutive trip to the MVC tournament under Leamy’s reign. In 1996, MSU goalkeeper Brad Barnes became the first MSU soccer player to earn CoSIDA Academic All-America first team honors after receiving second team recognition in 1995. Doug Lascody and Justin Douglass earned second team honors in 2004 and 2005, respectively. Forward Ryan Anderson became the first player in school history to earn conference player of the year honors, sharing the award with Drake’s Jesse Baker in 2005. Anderson was also the first player in school history to be voted to the NSCAA/adidas All-America team, earning second-team honors. The 2005 Bears, playing for the first time as Missouri State and 25th year as a program, reeled off a 10-match unbeaten streak to start the season, culminating in a number nine national ranking by the National Soccer Coaches Association of America. The team improved to 12-1-2 before dropping its final three matches of the season to finish 12-4-2,which included a 4-3 mark and fifth-place finish in the MVC. Highlights of the season included a school-record five match shutout streak from Sept. 9-23 and an offensive attack that ranked atop the conference in goals and points for much of the season. In 2004, the Bears flew out of the gate with the nation’s second-longest unbeaten streak (11 games), dating back to the 2003 season. The streak resumed in 2004 with a tie against Loyola Marymount before the Bears rattled off seven straight victories. MSU finished at 11-6-2 on the season and was 4-4-1 in the MVC to tie for fifth place and advanced to its 10th consecutive conference tournament. Leamy

2010 Missouri State Season Review

Team overcomes tough non-conference schedule Head coach Jon Leamy completed his 19th season at the helm of the Missouri State men’s soccer program as the team finished 8-7-3 (41-2 in the MVC) and reached the semifinals of the MVC Tournament. Despite a schedule that included four top-25 opponents and a six-game road trip, the team was able to battle and overcome obstacles en route to a better-than .500 record for the second straight season. “We came into the season extremely excited about the level of competition on our schedule,” said head coach Jon Leamy. “We always want to play the best teams we can to prepare our team for conference play.” REGULAR SEASON The men’s soccer team had to wait out a two hour and 30 minute lightning delay in Dallas, Texas on Sept. 1 before it could kick off the 30th season in the program’s history. The Bears jumped out to a 2-0 halftime lead on goals from junior Heath Melugin and freshman Callen Roselieb. But SMU responded with two second-half goals and the decisive goal in the second overtime to defeat MSU, 3-2. The Mustangs ended the season in the Elite 8 and ranked No. 8 in the final NSCAA poll. Missouri State turned around and headed to Kansas City for a showdown with UMKC on Labor Day evening. The Kangaroos’ Diego Rojas buried a highlight-reel goal with a bending shot from 30 yards away as the only

2011 Bears Men’s Soccer

tally of the match. The Bears dropped to 0-2 for the first time since 2001, but things would turn around for MSU. The Bears kicked off a brief two-game homestand against Green Bay on Sept. 10. The Phoenix had made the NCAA Tournament in 2009 and would out-shoot the Bears in the match 13 to 12. But senior Paul Paradise scored in the second minute of play and fellow senior Alex Riggs made three saves in the 1-0 shutout win. Two days later, MSU hosted IUPUI and quickly evened its record at 2-2-0. Junior Jordan Hoffman scored his first goal of the season and propelled the Bears to a 3-0 shutout of the Jaguars. Melugin and junior Gerard Barbero also tallied goals in the win. Riggs again made three saves for the shutout. Missouri State set out on its longest road trip since 1985 with a visit to No. 10 Louisville on Sept. 18. Once again, the Bears got on the board early with a Melugin goal in the 14th minute. The Bears held a 1-0 lead at halftime, but the Cardinals evened the score in the first minute of the second half and added the game-winner in the 53rd minute for a 2-1 win over the Bears. Louisville remained in the top-10 the rest of the season and ended up losing in the NCAA Tournament Championship match to Akron. Three days later, junior Edin Sabic put the Bears in front of No. 2 Tulsa with his first goal of the year in the 14th minute. Again the Bears were unable to hold a halftime lead as the Golden Hurricane tied the match in the 74th minute and won it in double overtime. The road trip continued as Missouri State kicked off conference play at Central Arkansas on Sept. 25. The match remained scoreless until the final minute of double overtime when Barbero scored off of a free kick for the game-winner. Riggs was only required to make one save for the shutout win, his second of the season. MSU headed to Saint Louis on Sept. 28 for a rematch of the 2009 NCAA Tournament first round tilt with the Billikens. The two squads battled for 110 minutes of scoreless play. Riggs made three saves for his third shutout of the year. It was MSU’s first shutout of the Billikens in the series history. The Bears turned the calendar to October with a stop in Evanston, Ill. for another matchup with a 2009 NCAA Tournament team. Northwestern got a second half goal and beat the Bears, 1-0. Paul Paradise tallied four of MSU’s eight shots in the match. Missouri State looked to avenge its only loss of the 2009 MVC campaign as they

wrapped up the road trip at Eastern Illinois on Oct. 9. Melugin scored in the first minute of play and Riggs made seven saves as MSU prevailed, 1-0. The win moved the Bears to 2-0-0 in conference play for the first time since 2001 and the back-to-back shutouts to begin conference play were a first since 1998. Alex Riggs was named MVC Defensive Player of the Week after his performance. A week later, the Bears began a four-game homestand by hosting Drake. The Bulldogs jumped out to the early lead with a 10th minute goal. Late in the second half, however, Drake was called for a penalty in the box and Barbero converted the PK. Neither team scored in overtime and the match ended in a 1-1 draw. On Oct. 20, Missouri State played host to Evansville. It was the first matchup since the Purple Aces knocked off the Bears in the 2009 MVC Tournament semifinals. Barbero converted another PK in the 24th minute, his second in as many matches and the first Bear since Derek Phillips in 1993 to convert a PK in consecutive matches. Melugin and Hoffman tacked on goals late in the match as MSU pulled away for a 3-0 shutout win. Riggs was again named MVC Defensive Player of the Week after his strong performance. Memphis visited Plaster Field on Oct. 26 as the Bears’ final non-conference test. Melugin scored his team-leading sixth goal of the year in the 12th minute and sophomore Eric Martin tallied his first career goal as the Bears

2010 Missouri State Season Review

Missouri State ties for second in MVC standings

downed the Tigers, 2-0. Riggs made three saves for his 20th career clean sheet. The Bears ended the homestand with a visit from Bradley. The match remained scoreless until the 85th minute when Barbero put back a rebound for the gamewinning goal, his third GWG of the year. Riggs made three saves for his fourth shutout of the Braves in as many career matches. Barbero was named MVC Defensive Player of the Week for his play. The win extended the Missouri State unbeaten streak in regular season conference play to 12 games, a school record. MSU headed up to Omaha, Neb. for the final regular season road match against No. 10 Creighton. The Bluejay defense held the Bears to just five shots in the match and CU got a goal in each half for the 2-0 win. The Bears wrapped up the regular season at home with a tilt against SIU Edwardsville on “Living our Legacy” night in front of 2,027 fans, the second-largest crowd in MSU history. Melugin led MSU with 10 of the 23 shots taken, but neither team was able to tally a goal. Riggs made five saves for his eighth shutout on the campaign. “We pride ourselves on being organized and playing good defense,” Leamy continued. “Our ability to turn away scoring opportunities and make big saves kept us in every game. We had a very good senior class that contributed a lot to this team in their four years as a Bear.”

MVC TOURNAMENT Missouri State entered the MVC Tournament in Peoria, Ill., as the No. 3-seed. The Bears faced a first round matchup with the No. 6-seed Purple Aces of Evansville. It was the second consecutive MVC Tournament meeting between the squads. Missouri State’s defense was able to turn back numerous Evansville opportunites as UE outshot the Bears 14 to nine in the match. MSU got on the board in the first half after a Purple Aces turnover. Junior David Buckenheimer found a streaking Paradise who chipped the ball over the UE keeper for a 1-0 lead. The Bears doubled the lead in the second half as Melugin tallied his team-leading seventh goal of the year. He received a pass from freshman Matt Bray, who earned his first collegiate point on the play. MSU advanced to the semifinals with a 2-0 shutout win. Riggs made three saves for the shutout, his ninth of the season, the secondbest single season total in Missouri State history. The Bears squared off with SIU Edwardsville in the semifinals, the second meeting between the teams in less than a week. The Cougars came out with early pressure and were able to get the early lead with a goal in the 19th minute. SIUE doubled the lead in the 31st minute and took a 2-0 edge into halftime. The Bears responded in the second half. In the 78th minute, senior Chad Johnson registered his first goal of the year to draw MSU within one. But Missouri State’s efforts were thwarted in the final minutes as SIUE prevailed to advance to the finals, 2-1. “We played well against Evansville,” recalled Leamy. “We were clicking and it felt like we were in control. We stumbled against SIUE. They had some different players emerge, but I thought we had decent chances to draw even in the match.” Riggs and Melugin were named to the MVC All-Tournament team for their outstanding play.

Hopefully he can continue his career at the next level.” Gerard Barbero joined Riggs on the AllMVC first team. He received a second-team NSCAA All-Midwest Region nod as well. Heath Melugin was the third Bear on the NSCAA All-Midwest Region squad, also receiving a second team selection. He was named an MVC State Farm Good Neighbor award recipient and an All-MVC second team member. Off the field, Melugin racked up the academic awards. He earned CoSIDA/ ESPN Academic All-District VII first team and All-America second team honors from the organization.

Home of the Bears -- Plaster Field The Missouri State men’s soccer team will begin its fourth season of play on Plaster Field at the Robert W. Plaster Sports Complex in 2009. Last season, the Bears were 2-3-3 at the on-campus facility and averaged 322 fans per contest.   Plaster Field enjoys a picturesque, landscaped location at the heart of the Missouri State campus. The facility has been home to Bears football for over 50 years, with the first game at the facility taking place Sept. 19, 1941. The facility also plays host to Bears field hockey, track and field, and marching band events.   A four-phase expansion of the facility between 1987 and 1991 was further enhanced in August of 1991, when it received a seven-figure gift from the Robert W. Plaster Foundation, with the expanded facility now known as the Robert W. Plaster Sports Complex.   The Plaster Foundation has made numerous gifts to support higher education in southwest Missouri. The addition to the facility in the summer of 1991 nearly doubled the seating capacity of the existing stadium, giving the complex its current capacity of 16,300 seats.   The stadium got a facelift in the summer of 2006 with the installation of a new FieldTurf artificial playing surface on the field. The new surface allows for an exciting, fast-paced brand of soccer.

The nation’s second-oldest NCAA Division I conference is a leader in college athletics and is one of the nation’s most progressive conferences. The Missouri Valley Conference enters a new decade facing a rapidly changing environment in NCAA Division I athletics as conference expansion and realignment swept the nation in the summer of 2010. Although The Valley was untouched, the league will remain vigilant in monitoring changes or potential changes in other conferences that might impact membership, or present opportunities for expansion. Men’s basketball continues to be the engine that drives Valley athletic programs. With UNI’s NCAA Sweet 16 appearance in 2010, the league has had four different Sweet 16 teams since 2006, and The Valley is the only non-BCS league with more than two different Sweet 16 teams in that span. Notably, the run of nine straight seasons with two or more teams in the NCAAs ended in 2007, as the past three seasons have seen only the tournament champion included in the NCAA field. Notably, The Valley made history in March 2007 with record attendance for four days at St. Louis’ Scottrade Center as 85,074 fans turned out to watch the five sessions of the tournament. The two sellout crowds of 22,612 for the semifinals and final of the 2007 State Farm Tournament set an all-time attendance record for basketball at the arena and also gave The Valley the distinction of having the largest championship crowd for any of the 30 NCAA conference tournaments in 2007. The State Farm MVC Tournament continues to be a spectacular showcase for the league, and the MVC has extended the tournament agreement with the Scottrade Center that will keep Arch Madness in St. Louis through 2013. At the 2011 State Farm MVC Championship, the league will surpass 1,000,000 in total attendance for the event, now in its 21st year. While the success of men’s basketball has received the greatest attention, the overall performance of league teams in virtually every sport continues to raise the

47

national profile of the conference. In men’s soccer, for the 13th time in league history, at least two MVC teams were invited to dance in the 2009 NCAA Men’s Soccer Championship –Drake and Missouri State. The Bulldogs won their firstever league tournament championship and saw their magical run end at the NCAA Elite Eight, falling to No. 4 North Carolina, 2-1. The 2009 campaign marked the thirdstraight season, and the ninth time in the past 10 years, that a Valley men’s soccer team advanced to at least the Quarterfinal Round of the NCAA Championship. Meanwhile, the success of The Valley television package is one of the great stories in the league. The MVC Television Network has blossomed into a revenuegenerating vehicle and The Valley’s most visible marketing tool. Meanwhile, The Valley is making video-streaming a major focus as it enters the second year of a three-year plan to upgrade the production and marketing of both institutionallyproduced and conference-produced webcasts. The 2003-04 campaign was a landmark for the conference as State Farm Insurance and the league came to terms on an agreement that provides State Farm with title sponsorship of all of the league’s 18 championships. Last fall, The Valley took a major step toward ensuring current revenues in television media and tournament sponsorship sales would be guaranteed in future years when it announced a 10-year partnership with Learfield Sports. The Jefferson City, Missouri-based company now has the exclusive sales and marketing rights to MVC assets that include championships and television advertising. The seeds for the creation of the conference were planted by eight administrators representing five institutions, who met at the Midland Hotel in Kansas City, Mo., on Jan. 12, 1907. The five schools which formed the Missouri Valley Intercollegiate Athletic Association were Washington University of St. Louis, and the state universities of Iowa, Kansas, Missouri and Nebraska. Two months after the initial meeting, two more schools -Drake University and Iowa State College -- were admitted. In the fall of 1907, basketball became the first competitive sport. Today, the

Missouri Valley Conference sponsors the following sports: baseball, men’s and women’s basketball, men’s and women’s cross country and track & field (indoor and outdoor), men’s and women’s golf, men’s and women’s soccer, softball, women’s swimming and diving, men’s and women’s tennis, and women’s volleyball. Athletic accomplishments on the men’s athletics side include 14 national basketball championships, 16 trips to the NCAA Final Four, a 1989 national baseball championship and 19 College World Series qualifiers. In 2010, Missouri State’s men’s basketball program won the CollegeInsider.com Postseason Tournament, the league’s first national title in men’s basketball since 1982 (Bradley, NIT). In 2001, Missouri State added to The Valley women’s accomplishments, as the Lady Bears advanced to the Women’s Basketball Final Four in St. Louis. Creighton (2004) and Missouri State (2005) have claimed national championships (WNIT) in women’s basketball, while MSU also has a 1992 NCAA Women’s Final Four appearance, and Creighton (2003), Drake (1999) and Illinois State (2009) have made semifinal trips to the WNIT postseason tournament. And while the inclusion of women’s sports under a comprehensive athletic umbrella is a recent development in the league’s storied history, over the years, Valley student-athletes and coaches have become household names during the league’s illustrious history, both during their collegiate careers and, for some, professional careers. League members include Bradley, Creighton, Drake, Evansville, Illinois State, Indiana State, Missouri State, Northern Iowa, Southern Illinois, and Wichita State. Central Arkansas and Southern IllinoisEdwardsville are men’s soccer affiliates, beginning in 2010.

MOATS Director of Athletics Third Year at Missouri State Missouri State University’s search for its new director of athletics concluded May 28, 2009, with the introduction of Kyle Moats as the University’s 10th A.D. Moats came to the University after serving as associate athletics director for national marketing at the University of Louisville since 2005.  Moats began his duties at Missouri State in July 2009, replacing Bill Rowe, who retired after spending 27 years as Missouri State’s top athletics administrator and more than a half century at the university as a student, coach and administrator.  In a busy first year on the job, Moats wasted little time in laying groundwork for the future of Missouri State Athletics. From day one he emphasized the importance of fostering a strategic vision in the current landscape of intercollegiate athletics by involving all corners of the campus community in developing a long-range plan for the MSU Athletics. Moats played a key role in Missouri State’s new partnership with Nelligan Sports Marketing (NSM), announced in February 2010. The agreement will result in the outsourcing of the departments’ marketing and corporate sales operations while maximizing revenue potential for MSU Athletics. Additionally, Moats was instrumental in MSU’s negotiations for a new multi-year television contract with KY3, Inc.  Year two for Moats in Springfield saw Missouri State finish second in the 2010-11 MVC All-Sports Trophy standings--its best finish in five years. Conference titles by men’s basketball, women’s swimming and softball, as well as postseason tournament berths for both MSU basketball programs highighted the Bears’ year. Prior to his arrival in Springfield, Moats spent four years as associate athletics director for national marketing at Louisville. In that capacity, he coordinated the Cardinals’ efforts in national awareness, marketing, branding and group ticket sales. He also worked closely with Nelligan, which manages the exclusive marketing rights for Cardinal Athletics. Moats oversaw the Louisville band and spirit squads as the liaison with student government and student spirit groups.  Prior to joining the Louisville staff, Moats served as senior associate athletic director for two years at Marquette University, where he oversaw the Golden Eagles’ Blue and Gold Fund, media relations, ticket operations, special events, licensing, radio, television, marketing and promotions and sponsorships with NSM.  He also worked 14 years in the University of Kentucky athletics department, including his last three there as associate athletics director for marketing (2000-02).  Moats joined the UK staff as a graduate assistant in the athletics office in 1989, and in 1991 was promoted to coordinator of promotions and special events. He became the Wildcats’ director of marketing, promotions and licensing in 1993 before being named assistant athletics director for marketing in 1996. He served as tournament manager for the 1993 NCAA Golf Championships and the 1996 and 1998 NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament events in Lexington.  A native of Dixon, Ill., Moats is a 1988 graduate of Southern Illinois University at Edwardsville with a bachelor’s degree in physical education. While at SIUE, Moats was a three-year letterwinner in golf and was a student assistant basketball coach for the Cougars from 1985-1988. He earned a master’s degree in sports management from the University of Kentucky in 2001.  Moats and his wife, Leeann, have two children, Kirk and Lauren.

Intercollegiate Athletics Mission Statement

(Approved by the Board of Governors October 1995, revised November 1999, December 2001, October 2003)

Abridged Version

Missouri State University (MSU) is committed to an intercollegiate athletics program which complements the mission of the University and operates in accordance with the principles and regulations of the National Collegiate Athletic Association. As a member of various athletics conferences, MSU is committed to academic and athletics excellence, sound fiscal management practices, enhancement of the physical and educational welfare of student-athletes, equal opportunity, character development, principles of amateurism, as well as the fundamental values of sportsmanship, civility, and the common virtue of good citizenship.

The Bears Fund

The Bears Fund is the annual fund-raising program for Missouri State intercollegiate athletics that was established in 1981 in conjunction with the move of MSU athletics to NCAA Division I status.  The fund’s name stands for “Building Excellence in Athletics through Recruiting and Scholarships,” and its impact on Missouri State Athletics has grown substantially throughout the 29 years of its existence. The 2009-10 drive netted over $2.75 million, marking the 22nd year in a row in which total contributions to The Bears Fund have gone beyond $1 million.  The fund is administered by the Missouri State University Foundation with additional input from coaching and administrative staff members in intercollegiate athletics.  Contributors of $50 or more during each year are recognized as members at various giving levels in The Bears Fund, and as such, receive benefits within the athletic program, including game program recognition, online athletics newsletter, and parking and postseason ticket considerations.  Bears Fund gifts may be earmarked for specific sports or general use and the money is used to enhance MSU athletics, particularly in the areas of scholarships and recruiting. Contributions may be cash, gifts in kind of goods or services, matching gifts from employers, bequests or life income trusts and honorary or memorial gifts.  An additional fund-raising event that’s a popular latesummer social event for MSU fans is the Missouri State Auction Benefiting Athletics. Held in August for each of the past 23 years, the auction has generated additional income for athletic uses with an evening of food, fun and entertainment.  Individuals and businesses donate goods or services for sale at the auction, and the income derived from that sale goes to intercollegiate athletics. Items available for purchase at the auction since it began in 1987 have included automobiles, a thoroughbred racehorse, country club memberships, advertising packages, travel opportunities including road trips with MSU athletic teams, furs, jewelry, sports memorabilia, and unique items such as the chance to join MSU coaches on the sidelines during varsity contests. Fifteen of the last sixteen auctions have netted more than $100,000 for MSU Athletics, and the 2009 auction raised more than $110,000.
