2012 Missouri State Men’s Soccer

2012 SEASON PREVIEW
QUICK LOOK AT NEWCOMERS, PRESEASON PICKS & SCHEDULE MEET THE NEWCOMERS This season, the Missouri State men’s soccer team is tasked with replacing an extremely talented and experienced group of seniors from 2011. One place they will look to is the 2012 recruiting class. The Bears returned to familiar recruiting grounds in 2012 signing four student-athletes from England, bringing the total to eight. Sophomore Jack Wood and freshman James Thomas will focus their efforts at the forward position. Freshman Jon Boyack will split minutes at midfield and attack, while sophomore Jack Roberts will primarily play midfielder. Missouri State also added a player already familiar with the men’s soccer program in Brandon Barbero. Brandon’s older brother, Gerard, was one of the five exiting seniors in 2011. Also joining the mix is a pair of players from Starkville, Miss. Missouri State picked up a letter of intent from goalkeeper Addison Watson in March and went back to Starkville High in July to secure a commitment from Kase Kingery, who will help the Bears out on defense and in the midfield. PRESEASON PICKS MSU was picked second and received three first-place votes in the 2012 MVC Preseason Poll. “It is nice to get some recognition and apparently some other coaches in our league felt good about our team,” head coach Jon Leamy said. “We feel great about our team.” The MVC also announced its 2012 Preseason All-MVC team as voted on by the Valley’s head coaches. Perennial league power Creighton led the way with four athletes on the list, while Missouri State was represented by sophomore
defender Andrew Turner. A trio of Bears gained preseason recognition from TopDrawerSoccer.com in its top 20 player rankings for the Missouri Valley Conference. On the list were Andrew Turner (7), Trevor Spangenberg (11) and Jack Wood (13). SCHEDULE Highlighting the Bears’ 17-match slate are five 2011 NCAA Tournament teams and matchups with eight squads from the Men’s Soccer RPI Top 100. Missouri State will host just five home games this fall, and will play in tournaments at Central Arkansas, Dayton and New Mexico. “It’ll be tough, but hopefully it seasons us and makes us a lot tougher,” Leamy commented. “We don’t want to get road weary and sometimes you worry about wearing the guys out with the travel, being away from school and getting in at 3 or 4 in the morning. We have to train smart and see how fresh we can keep this team to perform well during the season.” The Bears kick off the regular season at Plaster Field before playing eight consecutive games on the road. Missouri State welcomes Belmont back to Springfield for the home opener (Aug. 24) and will look to reverse its luck after losing 2-1 in the final seconds to the Bruins in last year’s home opener. On August 28, the Bears will take a mid-week trip to UMKC. After facing the Roos, Missouri State will participate in the University of Central Arkansas Tournament, Aug. 31-Sept. 2. The Bears’ first opponent will be Oral Roberts, a team that MSU beat 6-1 in 2011, followed by the firstever meeting with Lipscomb. The next weekend, MSU resumes tournament play in Dayton, Ohio with matches against

Eastern Illinois and Green Bay on Sept. 7 and 9, respectively. Green Bay (No. 65) is one of the eight squads that finished in the top 100 of the final RPI rankings. Rounding out tournament action, the Bears will return to University of New Mexico’s annual invitational, Sept. 14-16. Leamy’s group will open the tournament with No. 13 UC Irvine (Sept. 14). The Anteaters received a No. 8 seed for the 2011 NCAA Tournament, but lost their only match in the second round to Saint Mary’s. Missouri State then plays its first meeting with Ivy League opponent Dartmouth (Sept. 16). “We’re going to have to treat the neutral games as home games,” Leamy said of the three tournaments. “They may not be the greatest crowds or environments, but we have to go in there and play like it’s our home field. Those are games that you don’t want to drop.” To conclude September, the Bears will venture to Xavier on Sept. 22. The matchup with the Muskateers is the first of three straight games against opponents that finished in the top 50 of the RPI. Xavier also received a bid to the NCAA Tournament, losing to West Virginia in the first round. As the calendar turns to October, the Bears return to Springfield for a three-game homestand beginning with Memphis on Oct. 3. Missouri State will look to avenge a 2011 loss to the Tigers, who were 46th in the RPI. “We will bunker in a little bit and it will be unbelievable having three straight games at home, but then right after that you go four more away,” Leamy said. “That is going to be a monstrous stretch for us.” The Bears will have a tough test in their MVC opener against Bradley (Oct. 6). The Braves finished the season ranked No. 25 in the NSCAA Coaches’ Poll and 28th in the RPI after getting a first-round win in the NCAA Tournament. They were ousted from the Tournament in the second round by No. 12-seed Louisville. Missouri State will conclude its homestand with Evansville on Oct. 10. The Bears have won three straight against the Purple Aces. The Bears hit the road for a four-game swing starting Oct. 13 against SIU Edwardsville. They are looking for their second win in as many tries against SIUE. Next on the slate is a return trip to Conway, Ark. to play Central Arkansas on Oct. 17, followed by a Sunday night showdown with SMU on Oct. 21. The 19th-ranked Mustangs, played one of the tougher schedules in the nation and finished 10th in the RPI. In the final weekend of the four-game road trip, MSU travels to Omaha, Neb., for a battle with Creighton (Oct. 27). The Bears split the series in 2011, winning its first-ever game over a top-five opponent in the regular season, 1-0, and then falling short in the MVC Tournament final. Last season, Creighton was a perfect 14-0 when playing at Robert J. Morrison Stadium. In addition to making it all the way to the NCAA Tournament semifinals, four Jays were selected in the Major League Soccer (MLS) SuperDraft. Finishing out the Bears’ regular-season calendar is a home match with Drake on Nov. 2. The matchup with the Bulldogs will also serve as this year’s “Living Our Legacy” game.

J
on Leamy begins his 21st season as head coach for the Bears, making him the longest tenured men’s soccer head coach in Missouri State’s NCAA history. The veteran coach has transformed the Bears into a nationally-recognized program and has maintained a standard for success as the MSU men have been .500 or above in 16 of his 20 seasons at the helm. Leamy, the winningest coach in school history, sits atop the record books in both total wins (204) and winning percentage (.576). He has hit several coaching plateaus including the 150win mark in 2005 and most recently, the 200-win plateau in 2011. On October 15, 2011, Leamy recorded his 200th victory at Missouri State with a 3-0 blanking of Evansville on the road. During his tenure, the Bears have been nationally-ranked on six different occasions and have made the NCAA Tournament three times (1997, 1999, 2009). His resume also includes five MVC Tournament finals appearances and one Valley crown. The four-time MVC Coach of the Year and three-time Midwest Region Coach of the Year has produced 117 all-conference selections and 58 MVC Scholar-Athlete picks. He is also the winningest active MVC coach with 72 career victories in league play. Last season marked the 17th-consecutive trip to the MVC Tournament under Leamy’s reign. In addition to teaching a group of quality athletes on the pitch, Leamy has coached five players who have received CoSIDA

Academic All-America recognition. In 1996, MSU goalkeeper Brad Barnes became the first Bear to earn All-America first team honors after receiving second team recognition in 1995. Springfield, Mo. native Heath Melugin became the second MSU soccer player to garner first team accolades during the 2011 campaign. Like Barnes, Melugin was a second team honoree the previous season. Others that have been named CoSIDA Academic All-Americans include Quentin James (2000), Doug Lascody (2004) and Justin Douglass (2005). In 2011, Leamy’s squad bounced back from an 0-4-1 start to finish above .500 and secure the top seed in the MVC Tournament. The Bears went 5-1 in league play and clinched a share of the regular-season title with NCAA semifinalist Creighton. Another highlight of the 2011 season came when Missouri State registered its first-ever win over a top-five opponent, shutting out the No. 4-ranked Creighton Bluejays, 1-0, at Plaster Field on Oct. 12. The 2009 campaign proved to be successful as the Bears finished the season 12-5-2 (7-1-1 MVC) and were crowned MVC regular-season champs. Despite an early exit from the MVC Tournament semifinals, Missouri State still received a bid to the NCAA Tournament. For the second time in three NCAA appearances, the Bears drew Saint Louis, but found the back of the net just once on 22 shots in the 2-1 loss to the Billikens. Leamy and his group of Bears had a terrific year in 2005, reeling off a 10-match unbeaten streak to start the season, culminating in a No. 9 national ranking by the NSCAA. The team improved to 12-1-2 before dropping its final three matches of the season Tournament Finish to finish 12-4-2. Highlights of the season - included a school-record five-match shutout streak from Sept. 9-23 and an offensive attack Semifinalist that ranked atop the conference in goals and Semifinalist points for much of the season.

11-6-2 on the season and was 4-4-1 in the MVC to tie for fifth place. Leamy saw two players drafted, Lascody (35th overall) by the Kansas City Wizards, and Jim Levesque by the St. Louis Steamers of the MISL. Lascody was the fourth MSU player in three years to be drafted into Major League Soccer. In 2003, the Bears finished 9-7-3 overall and knocked off the MVC Tournament top seed and 18th-ranked Creighton Bluejays, 1-0 on the Bluejays’ home field in the tournament quarterfinals. The Bears then battled 19th-ranked Bradley to a 1-1 tie in the semifinals, only to lose the contest on penalty kicks. Leamy took the Bears to new heights in 2000, as they climbed as high as third in the national polls. Leamy picked up career win number 100 in a 2-1 victory over then eighthranked and eventual NCAA national finalist Creighton on September 29. The Bears finished the season 9-7-3 after injuries saw the team drop five one-goal matches. In 1999, the Bears finished the season 17-1-3 overall, were outright Valley regular season and tournament champions and earned the program’s first-ever NCAA Tournament seeding. While accumulating a 20-match unbeaten streak, MSU was ranked in the nation’s top 10 for seven consecutive weeks. For his efforts, Leamy earned both the Valley and Midwest Region Coach of the Year honors and was an NSCAA National Coach of the Year finalist. Leamy led the Bears to their first ever NCAA Tournament appearance in 1997, as the Bears went 13-5-3 and 6-0-1 in MVC play and won the Valley regular season championship. A native of Ipswich, Mass., Leamy graduated from Roanoke (Va.) College in 1982. He captained the nationallyranked Maroons for two years and earned all-conference honors as a defender.

2011 SEASON REVIEW
2011 SEASON RECAP LOWE’S SENIOR CLASS AWARD CANDIDATE Preseason All-MVC selection Heath Melugin was named a candidate for the 2011 Lowe’s Senior CLASS Award in men’s soccer announced Aug. 17. Melugin was one of five MVC men’s soccer players to make the list of 30. SENIOR-LADEN SQUAD On Senior Night against SIU Edwardsville, all five of Missouri State’s seniors were recognized including Gerard Barbero, David Buckenheimer, Jordan Hoffman, Heath Melugin and Thomas Vania. The senior class combined for 307 total matches started, while Buckenheimer led the group with 75 starts in 78 games played. FRESHMEN GETTING THEIR FEET WET Between Brandon Besong, James Fawke, Emmerich Hoegg, Parker Maher and Andrew Turner, the freshman class combined for 46 starts. Both Fawke and Turner led the group with 14 starts apiece. EARLY-SEASON WOES Having trouble finding the back of the net, the Bears were winless in their first five games of the season. They got their first win on the road at Cincinnati with a 1-0 victory over the Bearcats on Sept. 16. It was the first time in program history that the MSU men’s soccer team started out the season with four consecutive losses. In 1983, under head coach Frank Dinka, the Bears were winless in their first five matches, but picked up a draw in the second game of the season against Northeastern Oklahoma.
Goalkeeper of the Year, Brian Holt, made its way back to senior forward Heath Melugin. From 15 yards out, Melugin chipped the ball into a wide open net to put the Bears up 1-0 in the 23rd minute. MSU held strong after intermission, controlling the clock and allowing just one shot on goal in the final 45 minutes. The Bears handed Holt just his third goal allowed on the season and were the only MVC squad to score on the Bluejays. LEAMY REACHES 200-WIN PLATEAU Leamy reached the 200-win mark at Missouri State with a 3-0 shutout win of Evansville on Oct. 15. In his 20th season with the Bears, he finished the season with an overall coaching record of 204-145-38 (.576). The four-time MVC Coach of the Year has made 16 consecutive trips to the MVC Tournament and has earned three NCAA tournament berths. Leamy has had a record of .500 or above in 15 of his 20 seasons at the helm. QUICK MVC START The 3-0 start in MVC play marks just the third season that Missouri State has begun league play with three straight victories. The last time the Bears accomplished the feat was in 2001 when they defeated Evansville, Vanderbilt and Western Kentucky. The only other occasion was in 1999 as Missouri State finished the season with a 17-1-3 record.
WINNING STREAK The Bears were riding a four-game winning streak heading into their match with No. 21 SMU on Oct. 21. It was the longest stretch of victories for the Missouri State men’s soccer team since 2009 when the Bears strung together seven straight wins prior to the MVC Tournament. “LIVING OUR LEGACY” GAME With 1,498 fans in attendance for the “Living Our Legacy” game on Oct. 30, it was the third highest total in men’s soccer program history. This year’s theme for the game was “Soccer Salutes Service,” honoring the efforts of law enforcement, firefighters and EMT/first responders/medical/rescue personnel. Also, $488 of the Sunday’s proceeds were donated to the new Code 3 Sertoma Club. The Bears defeated SIU Edwardsville, 1-0. STINGY DEFENSE IN MVC PLAY Missouri State limited its MVC foes to just three goals on 77 shot attempts. Two of the three goals were scored via penalty kicks (Bradley, Drake). CHAMPIONSHIP SUNDAY The top-seed Missouri State men’s soccer team played its way into the 2011 MVC championship match with a 2-0 shutout of Drake at Morrison Stadium in Omaha, Neb. on Nov. 11. The Bears have advanced to the finals five
OFFENSIVE JUGGERNAUT Missouri State cruised to a 6-1 win over Oral Roberts on Sept. 27 at Plaster Field. The Bears scored more goals against Oral Roberts than they had totaled in their first seven games. The last time that Missouri State scored six goals in a single match was September 17, 2005 against Indiana Purdue-Fort Wayne. DOUBLING UP Senior midfielder Jordan Hoffman and freshman forward Pedro Cardenas scored two goals apiece in the 6-1 blowout win against ORU. Hoffman and Cardenas achieved a feat that no other Bear reached in 2010: scoring two goals in a match. The last Missouri State player to record two goals in a match was Paul Paradise in 2009 against Bradley. WIN ON THE BIG STAGE The men’s soccer team upset No. 4 Creighton on Oct. 12 and recorded its first-ever win over a top-five opponent. The Bears had beaten a sixth-ranked opponent on three different occasions, but were 0-10-3 in matches against top-five teams before the Creighton victory. The Bears’ game-winner came halfway through the first half on a Bluejay defensive breakdown. A ricocheted ball off of MVC
David Buckenheimer was one of three players to start all 19 matches in 2011. He ended his career ranked fifth all-time in Missouri State history for games started with 75.

2011 SEASON REVIEW
2011 SEASON RECAP times: 1997, 1998, 1999, 2008 and 2011. For the fourth time in as many tries, MSU was unsuccessful in taking down perennial MVC power Creighton in the championship game. In 1999, the Bears were crowned MVC Tournament champs with a 2-1 OT victory over Bradley. ROCKY START, GREAT FINISH After beginning the season with four straight losses, the Bears made an impressive run that included a 1-0 win over then-No. 4 Creighton at home, a 5-1 record in league play, and a share of the MVC regular-season crown. “Even though we started out a little rocky, we got stronger every practice and felt like we were getting better every day as the season progressed,” said head coach Jon Leamy on the Bears’ 9-8-2 season. “The best soccer the team was playing was definitely at the end of the year, and that’s what you want to do.” MELUGIN’S OFFENSIVE MAGIC Springfield native Heath Melugin led the team in goals during his sophomore, junior and senior season. He also tied for the team-lead in goals (3) during his freshman campaign. HOME-FIELD ADVANTAGE The Bears excelled in their own confines, finishing the season with a 5-2 record at Plaster Field. Wins at home included a 6-1 routing of Oral Roberts and a 2-1 conference-opening win over Central Arkansas. It also included a 1-0
win over then-No. 4 Creighton, giving the Bears their first-ever win over a top-five opponent. Next came another blowout win as Missouri State defeated UMKC, 5-1, and to cap off the home slate, the Bears defeated SIU Edwardsville, 1-0, to move within one game of the regularseason title. Missouri State outscored opponents 17-7 while playing at home. RPI In the final NCAA Men’s Soccer RPI rankings of the 2011 season, Missouri State jumped up 20 spots to No. 61. In all, the Bears played nine opponents rated in the top 100 of the RPI rankings. Included in that list were No. 2 Creighton, No. 10 SMU, No. 28 Bradley, No. 35 Northwestern, No. 46 Memphis, No. 52 Cal State Northridge, No. 53 Columbia, No. 63 Drake and No. 86 Saint Louis. Missouri State was 3-6-2 against those teams. NCAA TOURNAMENT TEAMS Four of Missouri State’s opponents appeared in the 2011 NCAA Tournament. MVC Tournament champion Creighton advanced to the semifinals with wins over Northern Illinois (2nd round), UC Santa Barbara (3rd round), South Florida (quarterfinals), but went into double overtime with Charlotte and failed to advance on penalty kicks. Also making tournament appearances were Bradley, SMU and Northwestern.

CoSIDA ACADEMIC ALL-AMERICAN Forward Heath Melugin earned Academic All-America honors for the second year in-a-row, but reached elite status in 2011, earning firstteam accolades. He became the second MSU men’s soccer play to earn first-team honors. In 1995, Brad Barnes was awarded second-team honors and the following year was named to the Academic All-America first team. Melugin became the first Bears’ studentathlete to receive first-team honors since the men’s track & field duo of Michael Breshears and Travis Mack in 2006. “It is a tremendous feat for Heath to be considered on of the top-11 student-athletes in the country for men’s soccer,” head coach Jon Leamy said. “He has done so well in all aspects of his life, whether it be academics, athletics or in the community.” Melugin boasted a 3.97 GPA in cell and molecular biology and was named to the MVC Scholar-Athlete first team for the third consecutive year. The senior was one of four unanimous first-team selections on the 11-member squad. CoSIDA ACADEMIC ALL-DISTRICT SUCCESS Seniors Heath Melugin and Thomas Vania were named to the CoSIDA/ESPN Academic All-District VI first team on Friday, November 4. It was the third-straight year that Melugin received the honor and marked the first year that Vania was named to the team.

Hat Tricks Ryan Anderson recorded the 20th hat trick in
Missouri State men’s soccer history when he scored three goals in the Bears’ 3-1 victory over Florida International on Sept. 3, 2005. Chris Deal is the last player to score four goals in a game, doing so against Evansville on Oct. 10, 2004. Doug Lascody recorded a hat trick in a 4-1 win against Vanderbilt in 2003. Jed Hohlbein also gathered a hat trick scoring three times in a 3-2 victory over Oakland (Sept. 1, 2002). Severin Lwali and Mike Williams both scored three goals in 1999. Matt Caution is the only Missouri State player to record more than two hat tricks. Caution posted four in his career, with three his freshman season. Tim Abeln and Ken Robinson each scored four goals in a 10-0 win against Baptist Bible College in 1981, and Caution repeated the feat against Missouri Southern in 1993 to become the last fourgoal scorer before Deal repeated the feat in 2004.

Plaster Field The Missouri State men’s soccer team will begin its seventh season of play on Plaster Field at the Robert W. Plaster Sports Complex in 2012. Last season, the Bears were 5-2 at the on-campus facility and averaged 514 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.

THIS IS THE MISSOURI VALLEY CONFERENCE BRADLEY - CENTRAL ARKANSAS - CREIGHTON - DRAKE - EVANSVILLE -MISSOURI STATE - SIU EDWARDSVILLE From early beginnings to its current standing on the map of college athletics, the Missouri Valley Conference continues to be proactive as The Valley enters its 106th season of athletic competition in 2012-13. 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. In what has become a wild, unpredictable climate in collegiate athletics, the Missouri Valley Conference has remained strong and stable. Notably, 19 of the nation’s 31 Division I conferences have new membership for this season, and all but five of those conferences have undergone a transformation in membership since 2000. Notably, the Missouri Valley Conference’s current 10-member composition has remained the same since 1996 – and only two leagues (Ivy, Patriot) can match that continuity. League members have worked together to focus on common goals and objectives, putting a high value on league harmony while continuing to invest in athletic programs to compete at the highest level. The Valley brand remains very strong, both regionally and nationally, and the great athletic tradition of The Valley remains a compelling force in recruiting student-athletes and in marketing all the MVC programs. 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. The 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 at least 2015. During the 2011 MVC Championship, the league surpassed 1 million in total attendance for the event, now in its 23nd year. Last year, the league matched a record with seven post-season teams, while Creighton and Wichita State represented the MVC in the NCAAs, marking the first time since 2007 that the league had received multiple NCAA bids. Creighton’s Doug McDermott became the first league player to earn First Team All-America honors since 1988. For the first time, the league had two ranked teams in the MVC Tournament (Creighton and Wichita State), while Creighton finished the season ranked No. 21 in the coaches’ poll (taken after season’s end). Wichita State (18) and Creighton (19) represented the MVC in the final regular-season writer’s poll (March 12, 2012), marking the first time since 1974-75 that two MVC teams had been ranked in a season-ending AP poll. 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 national profile of the conference. In men’s soccer, Creighton reached the 2011 College Cup semifinals, falling in a shootout loss to Charlotte. Bradley and Creighton -- who shared the regularseason MVC title with Missouri State -- represented the MVC in the NCAA Championship. Bradley also won a match before falling in the second round. In 2011, Creighton ended the year with a 21-2-1 record as it recorded 19 shutouts, falling one shy of the NCAA record. CU’s 0.20 goals against average on the year set an NCAA record, while All-American goalkeeper Brian Holt also set an NCAA record by posting a 0.206 GAA. Creighton led the NCAA with four soccer AllAmericans, Holt was named a Lowe’s Senior CLASS Award winner and Academic All-American of the Year. In women’s basketball, the league set an all-time record with seven postseason bids, while 2012 marked the 13th-straight season in which the Valley earned at least three post-season bids. The Conference remains committed to keeping the tournament at a neutral site at the Family Arena in St. Charles as establishing a neutral site remains a huge part of the overall efforts to improve women’s basketball in The Valley. In volleyball, UNI, Missouri State and Wichita State represented the league in the NCAA Tournament. It marked the sixth-straight season that multiple MVC teams were invited to the dance. UNI entered the NCAA Tournament with a 23-match win streak and advanced to the second round before falling to Florida. Notably, UNI has now won 61-straight matches against Missouri Valley Conference competition. In baseball, Indiana State won its first regular season title since 1985, the program’s first outright title, while five Missouri Valley Conference teams – Evansville, Illinois State, Indiana State, Missouri State and Wichita State – passed the 30-win threshold, marking the sixth-straight season in which at least four MVC teams have reached 30 wins. For the fifth time in league history, three Missouri Valley Conference baseball teams were selected for the NCAA Baseball Championship. It marked the first time since 2007 that multiple MVC teams were invited to the dance, and the first time since 2000 that three league teams were selected. In track & field, the league picked up three more national championships. Southern Illinois standout Jeneva McCall earned the national championship title in the weight throw at the NCAA indoor meet, and she also took the outdoor title in the hammer throw. Illinois State’s Tim Glover was the national champion in the javelin at the outdoor meet for a second-straight year. It marks the seventh NCAA meet in a row that the MVC has earned an individual national title in track & field. The MVC has now produced 13 national champions in the sport in the past six years. 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. Also, The Valley is making video-streaming a major focus as it enters the third year of a three-year
60
plan to upgrade the production and marketing of both institutionally-produced and conference-produced webcasts. In 2010, The Valley took a major step toward ensuring current revenues in television media and tournament sponsorship sales would be guaranteed in future years, announcing 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. During the tenure of Doug Elgin, The Valley’s ninth and longest-tenured commissioner, The Valley has been aggressive in hosting NCAA events in St. Louis. Since 1998, the MVC served as host for a staggering nine NCAA tournament events in the 13-year period, which has made St. Louis one of the most frequent stops on the NCAA Tournament trail. The Valley hosted Women’s Final Fours in 2001 and 2009, and the Men’s Final Four in 2005. The league will host an NCAA second- and third-round men’s basketball event in Kansas City in 2013 and assisted Creighton with preliminary round men’s events in both 2008 and 2012. 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. This season, the league will conduct its 102nd outdoor track and field championship, its 95th tennis championship, its 59th baseball tournament, and its 75th golf championship for the men. Those programs, plus other current sponsored sports of cross country (54 years), indoor track (46), men’s soccer (22) and swimming and diving (19), have helped solidify The Valley as one of the nation’s most respected conferences. Athletic accomplishments include four NCAA national basketball championships, 16 trips to the NCAA Final Four, a 1989 national baseball championship and 19 College World Series qualifiers. The league owns a total of 30 post-season national team championships, including Wichita State’s men’s basketball NIT title in 2011. 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. Indeed, the inclusion of women’s programs under The Valley banner has provided a boost. The Gateway Collegiate Athletic Conference -- which began in 1982 -- merged with the Missouri Valley Conference and was unveiled as part of the new conference on July 1, 1992. 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. In fact, The Valley began honoring that tradition in the summer of 1997, when the conference began its athletics Hall of Fame. Hersey Hawkins of Bradley, Larry Bird of Indiana State, Wes Unseld of Louisville, Coach Henry Iba of Oklahoma State, Dave Stallworth of Wichita State, Ed Macauley of Saint Louis, and Oscar Robertson of Cincinnati were members of the initial induction class.

KYLE Director of Athletics Third Year at Missouri State
M
issouri 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. In 2011-12, Moats’ third year at the helm, Missouri State enjoyed its finest campaign in nearly a decade, capturing the Missouri Valley Conference AllSports Trophy for just the fourth time. The Bears won Valley titles in women’s swimming and diving, women’s indoor track and field, women’s basketball and women’s golf this year along with a co-championship in men’s soccer. Additionally, four MSU teams advanced to postseason play, including NCAA Tournament appearances for the Bears’ volleyball, women’s golf and baseball programs. 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). A native of Dixon, Ill., Moats is a 1988 graduate of Southern Illinois University at Edwardsville with a bachelor’s degree in physical education. Moats was a three-year letterwinner in golf and a student assistant basketball coach for the Cougars from 1985-88. 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.
