FORT HAYS STATE UNIVERSITY

About Fort Hays State University Founded in 1902 on the plains of Western Kansas, Fort Hays State University is the second youngest of the six state universities. FHSU celebrated its centennial in 2002.

From a humble but exciting beginning, when just two faculty members and a 19-course curriculum greeted 34 students, our university has grown to a faculty of over 400, a support staff in excess of 500 and a student body of nearly 15,000. The university now offers hundreds of courses in each of its four main colleges — Education, Arts and Sciences, Business and Leadership, and Health and Life Sciences — and the Graduate School. The FHSU Virtual College provides many of the courses through various media to sites across Kansas and beyond.

FHSU is governed by a Board of Regents appointed by the governor of the state of Kansas.

FHSU is located in Hays, the largest city in northwest Kansas. Hays began as a wild frontier town and has grown into a progressive community of about 20,000 people. The old and new blend beautifully to form a city that is small enough to be comfortable yet large enough to provide abundant cultural, commercial and entertainment opportunities. In 1996, Hays was recognized as an All-America City.

The university sits on a campus of 4,160 acres of land that once was part of the historic Fort Hays frontier military post, and it recently expanded to include the relocated Sternberg Museum of Natural History on a site adjacent to Interstate 70 in northeast Hays. Big Creek, with its shady, grassy banks, meanders through the main campus, providing a tranquil learning atmosphere and serving as a natural laboratory for students in the biological sciences. With its stately limestone buildings and profuse flowers, trees and shrubs, our campus has often been called the prettiest in Kansas.

FHSU is academically superior to many comparable universities, offers students an electronic learning and living environment, and is richly endowed by heritage and tradition. Students come to our university for a multitude of reasons, but surveys show that their overwhelming reason is “the university’s reputation for academic excellence and its caring faculty.”

The university supports one of the most extensive and successful intercollegiate sports programs of any comparably sized college or university in America, boasting numerous All-American athletes and national championships. More than 400 athletes compete annually in nine men’s and nine women’s sports. FHSU is a member of the Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association, which comprises 14 schools from the states of Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma and Nebraska.

The university also serves as the cultural center of western Kansas, featuring fine arts exhibitions, performing arts presentations by faculty, students and traveling professional troupes, and a Presidential Lecture Series.

Dr. Andy Tompkins - Fort Hays State Interim President The Kansas Board of Regents announced the appointment of Dr. Andy Tompkins as interim president at Fort Hays State University on December 14, 2016, effective December 19, 2016.

“There is no one in the State of Kansas who has more experience as a leader in education, or who is more qualified to assist in this capacity,” said Zoe Newton, chair of the Kansas Board of Regents. “I appreciate the opportunity to work with Dr. Tompkins again. The Board is confident he will be able to successfully oversee Fort Hays State, especially because of his extensive knowledge of FHSU.” Tompkins became president and CEO of the Kansas Board of Regents on June 1, 2010, and retired from the position on June 30, 2015.

Throughout his career, he served at all levels of public education, beginning as a high school English teacher in 1969 and continuing on to work as a high school principal and district superintendent. In 1994, he was hired by Pittsburg State University as chair and associate professor in the Department of Special Services and Leadership Studies. He then went on to serve from 1995 to 1996 as interim dean for the College of Education at Pittsburg State. He returned to that position as dean from 2007-2010.

In 1996, Tompkins was asked to serve as the commissioner of education for the Kansas Department of Education, a role he continued in through 2005. Afterwards, he served as an associate professor at the University of Kansas, teaching in the Department of Educational Leadership and Policy Studies, before returning to Pittsburg State.

Tompkins was selected as Kansas Superintendent of the Year in 1992, was inducted into the Kansas Teachers Hall of Fame in 2001, and received the Governor’s Award presented by the Kansas State High School Activities Association in 2002. He was the 2002 recipient of the Leadership Kansas Alumnus of the Year Award, received the University of Kansas College of Education Distinguished Service Award in 2004, and was given the Emporia State University Distinguished Alumni Award in 2005.

He earned his undergraduate degree in English at East Central State University in Ada, Okla. He earned his master’s degree from Emporia State University and his doctorate in educational administration from the University of Kansas.

Lewis Field Stadium

GROSS COLISEUM COACHES PLAYERS

LEWIS FIELD STADIUM is the 6,362-seat home of the Fort Hays State University football team. The venue has been home to the Tigers for over 80 years, but has seen several renovations throughout its history.

Lewis Field was constructed in 1936 on what was formerly the Golden Belt Fairgrounds, named in honor of William Alexander Lewis, president of Fort Hays State University from 1913 to 1933. The field is located beside a spacious tree-lined drive and is just a short walk from the campus residence halls and downtown business district.

The stadium saw several changes prior to the start of the 2013 season. A brand new artificial playing surface was installed, which plays similar to natural grass. A new look for the field included the FHSU Tiger logo at the 50-yardline and black endzones with gold lettering that reads “Fort Hays” in the north endzone and “Tigers” in the south endzone. Visible just beyond the southeast wall of the stadium is the Schmidt-Bickle Indoor Training Facility, opened in 2013, which features a 60-yard indoor field, a weight room and meeting rooms for the players.

Before the 2017 season, old chair back seating and bleacher seating on the west side of the stadium was replaced by new folding chair back seats. Several donors gave generously to the project, allowing for chair back seating for nearly the entire west side of the stadium, excluding a few rows at the top of the stands.

Prior to the 2003 season, a new lighting system was installed to eliminated shadows on the playing surface.

The native limestone structure around the outside of the stadium was refurbished to its natural state in 1993 when 57 years of weathering was sandblasted away.

Dressing rooms, concession areas, athletic training facilities, restrooms and equipment storage rooms are located under the grandstands.

A complete remodel of the Tiger locker room was completed prior to the 2006 season with carpet flooring and individual lockers for 90 players.

Admittance to the stadium is allowed through two main gates, one on the east side and one on the west side. Four ticket windows are in service for each game.

Plans are in place to install a new video/scoreboard measuring over 60 feet wide and 45 feet tall at the north end of the stadium following the completion of the 2017 season and will be operational by the 2018 season.

Schmidt-Bickle Indoor Training Facility

THE MIAA

The multi-million dollar SCHMIDT-BICKLE INDOOR TRAINING FACILITY opened in August of 2013. The facility is located just beyond the southeast wall of Lewis Field Stadium on the campus of Fort Hays State University. The 50,400-square foot facility features a 65-yard artificial turf practice field, batting cages, 70-yard three-lane synthetic track with jump pits, 5,000-square foot weight room, storage areas for multiple sports, and a team meeting room. The facility was named for the families of Bob and Pat Schmidt and Don and Chris Bickle, who provided major gifts to the university to help fund the construction of the facility. Construction began in June of 2012 and took just over a year to complete. The facility is primarily used by Fort Hays State’s outdoor sports programs.

Gross Memorial Coliseum

6 6

GROSS MEMORIAL COLISEUM is the home of Fort Hays State men’s and women’s basketball, volleyball, wrestling and indoor track and field. The 6,814-seat arena was finished in August of 1973 at a cost of seven million dollars. The Tigers made the move across campus from Sheridan Coliseum which seated 2,000. Paul “Busch” Gross is the namesake of the Coliseum. Gross coached basketball at FHSU from 1930 to 1946.

Major renovations took place at the coliseum in the summer of 2011 with the installation of a completely new playing surface and indoor track, and completely remodeled locker rooms for the men’s and women’s basketball teams. The old wood surface, which had been in place for at least a couple of decades, was stripped down to the concrete underneath and a more forgiving wood surface was installed. A new track was laid over the existing one around the outside of the wood playing surface. The new locker rooms include open wood lockers, carpet in the dressing area, dry erase boards, new showering and restroom facilities, and a lounge with flat screen monitors for viewing television or video footage.

In the summer of 2008, changes were made with the addition of chairback seating on the lower level of the coliseum. Approximately 650 chairback seats were installed along the sidelines of the court. New composite retractable bleachers were installed on both ends of the court.

The chairback seats and new bleachers replace the old wooden bleachers that encompassed the entire lower level.

Prior to the 1996-97 season, several changes were made to Gross Memorial Coliseum. Additions included the construction of new locker rooms and the remodelling of two existing locker rooms. The sound system was upgraded with the addition of 16 speakers and a new sound board which allows for programming of music, messages and sound effects. Prior to the 1997-98 season, two message boards on each end of the coliseum were installed.

Gross Memorial Coliseum is a multipurpose facility that hosts the KSHSAA Class 1A State Basketball Tournament, the KSHSAA Class 3-2-1A State Wrestling Championships, the KSHSAA Class 2A and 1A State Volleyball Championships, and concerts (seating for 10,000). The Coliseum houses the FHSU athletic offices, a large athletic training room, locker rooms, concession stands, a press box and the Field Strength Facility.

FHSU Soccer Stadium at Bickle-Schmidt Sports Complex The FHSU SOCCER STADIUM opened for play in the fall of 2011, the inaugural season of Fort Hays State men’s and women’s soccer. The Tigers home stadium is part of the Bickle-Schmidt Sports Complex which also features eight baseball/softball fields and eight football/soccer fields.

LARKS PARK is home to the Fort Hays State University baseball team. The park is owned by the city of Hays but operated by the FHSU Athletic Department. The athletic department has a ten-year lease on the property.

Larks Park was built in 1940 as part of a Work Projects Administration project. It is a historic venue as the oldest park within the state of Kansas. Continued renovations over past years have maintained the facility as one of the finest in the state.

Larks Park is located at Fourth and Main in Hays. The park features a limestone frame with locker rooms, restrooms, concession facilities, and seating for 1,200 Tiger fans. A record 1,868 fans turned out on April 8, 2005, to watch the Tigers take on Mesa State. Lights were installed in 2000 to allow night games at the park.

A new field turf infield playing surface was installed in the spring of 2013. The entire infield, including dugouts, mound, base cutouts, and home plate area, is now field turf instead of dirt. The artificial infield is necessary due to the numerous games that are played in the park each year. The outfield is made of bluegrass sod.

Park dimensions are 322 feet down the left field line, 319 feet down the right field line, 349 feet to the power alleys and 405 feet to center field.

Larks Park also received several major renovations in 2008. A new eight-foot wooden fence replaced the old chainlink outfield fence and the foul poles were also replaced. Billboards of Tiger supporters line the new outfield fence. Along foul territory is now a four-foot wooden fence. The bullpens received a facelift as they are now enclosed with the same fencing that surrounds the field. A new scoreboard with LED lighting was placed above the right field fence. Most recently in the spring of 2010, the Tiger locker room, bathrooms, and training facility underneath the grandstand were remodeled.

TIGER STADIUM is home to the Fort Hays State University softball team. Ground breaking for the stadium occurred in January of 1998 and was ready for action by February of 1999.

Tiger Stadium is on the south side of Gross Memorial Coliseum/Cunningham Hall. The park features concession facilities and seating for 500 Tiger fans.

Both dugouts were built above ground with a six foot high protection fence in front. A large press box sits behind the stands which houses the public address announcer, scoreboard operator, official scorer, and working media.

Park dimensions are 200 feet down the left and right field lines, 210 feet to the power alleys and 220 feet to center field. The outfield fence stands eight feet high.

Prior to the 2012 season, the stadium received a major facelift as the wooden outfield fence was painted black with a gold distance marks and trim on top of the fence. The tops of the dugouts were also painted black, along with the backstop behind home plate. More renovations took place in the fall of 2013, when stadium style seating was added behind home plate thanks to a major donation from Eugene and Jo Ann Fleharty.

Upgrades to the park were made before the 2007 season with the installation of an Oklahoma red clay infield surface. The surface is excellent for the Kansas wind and has a high moisture content ratio, providing the ability to withstand spring storms, particularly in the absence of field tarp. Drought resistant fescue grass is the surface in the outfield and foul territory.

In the summer of 2007, a new net-style backstop replaced the old chain link backstop behind home plate. In 2008, a new scoreboard with LED lighting was installed beyond the outfield wall.

Behind the center field portion of the fence sits three flagpoles which hold the American, State of Kansas and FHSU flags. The chainlink fence alongside foul territory contains billboards of Tiger supporters.

The stadium also features two bullpens and two batting tunnels. They are located outside the playing area down the right and left field lines. Lights were installed in the summer of 2003 to aid in hosting tournaments and night contests. The lights are positioned behind each dugout and to each side of right and left field.

FHSU Track & Field Facility The FHSU TRACK & FIELD FACILITY consists of a nine-lane, 400-meter, all-weather running track and a full complement of field event areas. The current site was chosen more than two years ago and construction of the $3.28 million facility began in April of 2016. The complex includes a press box and fixed bleacher seating for 500 spectators on the east side. Other structures provide field equipment storage, a training room, a meeting room, and public restrooms. Construction completed in December of 2016. Installation of a new timing and results board occurred in August of 2017 and future upgrades include the addition of lights to the facility as funding becomes available.

The track at the facility is named for Alex Francis, the highly successful man who coached track and field and cross country at Fort Hays State University from 1946 until his retirement in 1980. The track at Lewis Field Stadium was previously named after Coach Francis and his name and legacy has been carried forward to Fort Hays State’s current track. His cross country teams won four national titles (1963, 1965, 1968, 1969) and finished national runner-up four times. He also guided cross country teams to 11 conference titles. His track and field squads captured 17 conference titles and overall he guided 139 Tiger athletes to All-America status in cross country and track and field combined.

GROSS MEMORIAL COLISEUM FORT HAYS STATE GROSS COLISEUM COACHES PLAYERS OPPONENTS REVIEW

GROSS MEMORIAL COLISEUM is home of the Fort Hays State volleyball, men’s and women’s basketball, wrestling, and indoor track and field programs. The coliseum is in it’s 44th year of operation in 2016-17. The 6,814seat arena was finished in August of 1973 at a cost of seven million dollars. The Tigers made the move across campus from Sheridan Coliseum which seated 2,000. Paul “Busch” Gross is the namesake of the coliseum. Gross coached basketball at FHSU from 1930 to 1946 and totaled 150 wins in 14 seasons.

Major renovations took place in the coliseum in the summer of 2011 with the installation of a completely new wood playing surface and indoor rubber track, and completely remodeled locker rooms for the men’s and women’s basketball teams. The old wood surface, which had been in place for at least two decades, was stripped down to the concrete underneath and a more forgiving wood surface was installed. On the court, a large Tiger logo is featured at midcourt. The conference letters “MIAA” are located in the lanes just inside the free-throw lines on each end of the basketball court. The word “Tigers” is located on each baseline of the basketball court. Fort Hays State University and the NCAA logo are also on the court along each sideline. A pair of new video boards to enhance the fan experience during home contests were installed at each end of the court.

In the summer of 2008, changes were made with the addition of chairback seating on the lower level of the coliseum. Approximately 650 chairback seats were installed along the sidelines of the court. New composite retractable bleachers were installed on both ends of the court. The chairback seats and new bleachers replaced wooden bleachers that encompassed the entire lower level.

Gross Memorial Coliseum also features ample seating for media members both courtside and at the top of the arena. Padded courtside tables with advertising are featured along each side of the court, where the majority of media members are located during home contests. The press box at the top of the arena was utilized for radio, television, and the FHSU sports information staff during games for several years until sports information and radio was moved courtside nearly a decade ago. The press box at the top of the arena GROSS MEMORIAL is still utilized by television and webstreaming personnel, along with personnel to COLISEUM control the video boards at each end of the arena.

Seating Capacity: 6,814 Surface: Wood M.C. Cunningham Hall is part of the total Health, Physical Education and Recreation/ Constructed: 1973 Athletic complex at Fort Hays State. Cunningham Hall houses HHP offices, classrooms, a swimming pool, four full-sized gymnasiums, eight handball/racquetball courts, a INDOOR TRACK Surface: Rubber weight room, two dance studios, and a wrestling room.

Gross Memorial Coliseum is a multi-purpose facility that hosts the KSHSAA State 1A Basketball Tournament, the KSHSAA State 3-2-1A Wrestling Championships, the KSHSAA 2-1A State Volleyball Championships, and concerts (seating for 10,000). The Coliseum houses the FHSU athletic offices, a large athletic training room, locker rooms, concession stands, a press box and the Field Strength Facility, which features full nautilus equipment and free weights.

HEAD COACH KURT KOHLER

Kurt Kohler • Head Coach Kurt Kohler enters his ninth season as head volleyball coach at Fort Hays State University in 2017. He has guided FHSU to 127 wins in eight seasons at the helm, second-most in program history.

Fort Hays State has accumulated seven 20-win seasons since joining the NCAA Division II in 1992 (25-year history).

Kohler has coached the Tigers in three of those seasons, more than any other coach. Kohler has now led the Tigers to back-to-back 20-win campaigns for just the second time in the program’s Division II history (25-9 in 2016, 21-13 in 2015). The nine losses last season are the fewest for the Tigers since 2004 (31-5). The first 20-win season under Kohler occurred in 2012 when the Tigers finished 23-14 overall. FHSU has averaged 19 wins per season over the past six years under Kohler.

The Tigers finished 11-7 in Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletic Association (MIAA) play in 2016, producing their most conference wins in a season since joining the MIAA in 2006. FHSU has advanced to the MIAA tournament three times under Kohler (2012, 2015, 2016).

Kohler has coached 28 All-MIAA selections in his time at Fort Hays State, including five honorees in a season three times, tied for the program record. Two Tigers earned first team honors in 2016 (Crystal Whitten and Rebekah Spainhour), the first time FHSU has had a student-athlete on the first team since joining the MIAA in 2006.

Additionally, Kohler coached the fifth All-American in program history in 2016 when Crystal Whitten earned honorable mention honors from the AVCA. Whitten also earned All-Central Region honors, the first such honor for a Tiger since 2005.

After rebuilding the program in his first two years, Kohler has drastically turned the program around at Fort Hays State in the highly competitive MIAA and toughest region in the nation at the NCAA Division II level. FHSU won 10 more matches in 2011 than it did in each of the two previous seasons, then saw a six-win improvement in 2012. Fort Hays State won double-digit conference games for the first time in 2015 (10-8), finishing sixth in the standings. The Tigers improved to 11-7 in 2016 to tie for fourth in the conference, FHSU’s best-ever finish in the MIAA standings.

Kohler came to Fort Hays State from Barton (Kan.) Community College, where he coached volleyball during the 2005-06 season, but then took over as Barton’s athletic director for the next two and a half years. Kohler brought three years of head coaching experience at the community college level, where he posted an overall record of 89-44.

In 2005-06, Kohler led Barton to a 36-11 overall record and a national ranking for most of the season. Barton finished the season ranked 14th in the nation. Kohler was voted the Jayhawk West Division Coach of the Year that season.

Kohler gained his first experience at the NCAA Division II level at Missouri Western State University, where he served as Assistant Coach and Recruiting Coordinator in 2004.

Prior to his year at Missouri Western, Kohler coached three years at Allen County (Kan.) Community College from 2001-2003. He served as assistant coach in 2001 before becoming the head coach for the next two years. He was voted the Jayhawk East Division Coach of the Year in 2002.

He guided Allen County to District D Championships in both his years as head coach. Kohler posted an overall record of 53-33 at ACCC. He served as the Assistant Athletic Director at ACCC while coaching volleyball, eventually becoming the interim athletic director.

Kohler was the athletic director and head volleyball coach at Weld Central High School in Keenesburg, Colo., during the 2000-01 school year.

In his time at WCHS, Kohler guided the volleyball program to one of its top finishes in school history and helped triple the size of the booster club.

He planned and promoted fund-raising efforts that doubled the budget of the school.

Kohler also spent time as the Youth Sports Supervisor for the Fort Collins, Colo., Parks and Recreation Department. While in Colorado, Kohler was a volleyball coach at Morgan Community College in Limon, Colo., Karval High School in Karval, Colo., and Genoa-Hugo High School in Hugo, Colo. He earned league Coach of the Year honors twice while coaching in Colorado. Kohler served as President of the Colorado High School Volleyball Coaches Association in 2000 and 2001. In five years, Kohler posted an overall record of 137-30 at the high school level in Colorado.

A native of Colorado Springs, Colo., Kohler earned a bachelor’s degree from Colorado State University in Exercise and Sport Science in 1995. He also earned a Teaching Certificate as well for Physical Education and Science. Kohler obtained his master’s degree from Emporia State University in Health, Physical Education, and Recreation in 2004.

We hope to boost the support even more for the 2017 season.

The MIAA is an extremely competitive conference and boasts some of the top teams in the nation. The Tigers plan to contend for a top position in the conference for years to come. Continued support from the Volleybackers greatly increases the team’s chance for success.

2017 OUTLOOK Slew of Newcomers Join Strong Returning Class for Tigers in 2017 The Fort Hays State volleyball team continued its climb up the ranks in the Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association last season, setting program records with 11 wins and a tie for fourth in the final standings. The Tigers finished the year 25-9 overall, matching the second most wins in a season since the team joined the NCAA Division II in 1992. With a strong returning class and a slew of talented newcomers, head coach Kurt Kohler looks to keep the Tigers moving forward with another strong campaign in 2017.

A total of 13 players return from a year ago, including 10 lettermen and three redshirts. Kohler has also added 14 newcomers for the 2017 season, including 11 true freshmen and three transfers.

Kohler enters his ninth year at the helm in 2017 with the second most wins as a coach in program history. He passed Orvene Johnson (108 wins) and Jesse Mahoney (107 wins) early last season, closing the year with 127 career victories at FHSU.

Middle Hitters The Tigers return two middle hitters from a year ago, including one senior and one redshirt-freshman. Senior Callie Christensen earned second team All-MIAA honors last season after leading the conference and ranking 10th in the country with 149 total blocks. She ranked third on the team with a .247 attack percentage while starting in 29 contests. Redshirt-freshman Morgan West will look to contribute after working with the team all last year.

Ashley Webb looks to contribute in the middle after transferring as a junior from Garden City (Kan.) Community College. The Nassau, Bahamas native accumulated 203 kills and 131 blocks in her two seasons as a Broncbuster, ranking 13th in the NJCAA with 47 solo blocks as a senior.

Three freshmen also have the talent to play a vital role in the center of the court. Tatum Bartels was a unanimous pick for MCL Top Player honors after a strong senior season at Phillipsburg (Kan.) High School. Christianna Herron has plenty of experience in big matches, helping St. James Academy (Lenexa, Kan.) to a pair of Kansas 5A championship games and winning the title in 2015. Bayleigh Petty was chosen to play in the North Central Kansas All-Star Game after earning all-county and all-league honors her final two seasons at Salina Central (Kan.) High School.

Outside Hitters Three talented returners and four incoming freshmen look to help the Tigers replace All-American outside hitter Crystal Whitten. Junior Sydney Dixon is the top offensive returner for the Tigers, picking up 363 kills through her first two seasons. The Louisburg, Kan. native picked up honorable mention All-MIAA honors as a freshman and recorded similar numbers last year during her sophomore campaign. Fellow junior Azlyn Cassaday has served as an outside hitter and a defensive specialist for the Tigers, ranking fourth on the team with 2.47 digs per set last season. She also totaled 30 kills on just 85 swings. Sophomore Magan Alexander saw plenty of the floor last season, appearing in 20 matches and playing in 38 sets. Alexander finished sixth on the team with 61 kills, including nine in two separate matches.

Four incoming freshman are vying for a spot in the rotation on the outside, including Garden City, Kan. product Kyra Bellows. Bellows was named Garden City High School Female Athlete of the Year honors as a senior after earning first team all-conference and all-area honors. Britta Coleman helped Shawnee Mission Northwest High School (Shawnee, Kan.) to a sub-state victory after picking up all-league honors. Jordan Eshbaugh was named a first team All-State performer as a junior at Concordia (Kan.) High School, helping the Panthers to a pair of state championship game appearances. Logan Wallick was named the Player of the Year in her region after serving as the captain at Verrado High School (Waddell, Ariz.).

Rightside Hitters

20

Three returners look to anchor the opposite side for the Tigers. Senior Kylie Rollman ranked sixth on the team with 1.38 kills per set last season, playing in 12 matches and making three starts. She recorded five or more kills in three of her 12 matches. Junior Madison Elwood took on a reserve role last season, swinging at a .115 clip in five matches. Redshirt-freshman Kylie Brown will have her first opportunity to contribute this season after working with the team in practice all last season.

Setters Five strong passers look to replace All-MIAA setter Hannah Wagy, including one returner and four new faces. Becca Page appeared in nine matches last season, ranking second on the team with 68 assists and averaging 6.18 assists per set. She reached a season-high of 20 assists in one match, reaching double figures three times.

Halie Sigurdson transferred to FHSU from Butler (Kan.) Community College, serving as the primary setter for the Grizzlies for two years. The incoming junior totaled 1,179 assists, 597 digs and 62 service aces in her career at Butler. She has already worked with the team for a full semester after transferring to Fort Hays State in the spring.

A trio of incoming freshmen also have the potential to come in and contribute right away. Amirah Bentley was chosen to play in the CCGS All-State game after her senior season at Denver East High School. Katie Darnell earned all-league honors three times at Wichita (Kan.) Northwest High School, helping the Grizzlies to three sub-state victories while earning the Wendy’s High School Heisman Award. Jaycie Richardson picked up all-league honors three times at Ness City (Kan.) High School.

Defensive Specialists/Liberos Four returners and two newcomers look to strengthen the team’s defensive unit. Junior Kailey Klibbe played in 28 matches a year ago, serving as the libero for much of the season. Klibbe ranked third on the team with 314 digs, reaching double figures 13 times. Fellow junior Abby Groth appeared in a limited role last season, playing in six matches and tallying four digs. Sophomore Abbie Hayes saw the floor in 15 matches as a freshman, totaling 15 digs. Redshirt-freshman Taylor White looks to become a vital part of the defense after practicing with the team all last season. White holds the Kansas record for most assists in a season (1,123) and career (4,216).

Sabrina Rodgers will play her senior season at FHSU after playing at Columbus State University for three seasons. The Iowa City, Iowa native totaled 500 digs and 54 service aces during her time as a Cougar.

Rounding out the defensive staff is Sydney Sinclair, a freshman from Grain Valley, Mo. Sinclair earned all-conference and all-league honors three times during her time at Blue Springs South High School.

Crystal Whitten became the fifth Tiger to earn All-American honors in 2016, leading the MIAA in kills per set en route to a unanimous first team AllMIAA selection. She is the fourth individual to be named an All-American during the Division II era, and the first since 2005. Whitten was a threetime All-MIAA selection (twice at FHSU and once at Pittsburg State). She finished her senior season with 491 kills and 395 digs, leading the team in both categories. Whitten became the first Tiger with back-to-back 400 kill seasons since Lilian Rezende in 2008-09. She wrapped up her collegiate career with 1,507 kills and 1,266 digs, including 911 kills and 833 digs in two seasons at Fort Hays State.

Head Coach Kurt Kohler has turned the Fort Hays State volleyball program around in eight years. After winning just seven matches in each of his first two seasons as coach, FHSU has averaged nearly 19 wins per season over the last six years. The Tigers reached 20 wins in a season for the third time under Kohler in 2016, going 25-9 overall, the second-highest win total in a season during the program’s NCAA Division II history. Kohler reached the 100-win milestone in 2015 during his seventh season at the helm. He ranks second in wins in program history and is the winningest coach in the Division II era.

2016 REVIEW

42 42

Tigers Reach 25 Wins for Third Time in NCAA Era Fort Hays State put together one of its strongest seasons in recent history in 2016, reaching the 25-win plateau for just the third time since joining the NCAA Division II in 1992. After tallying 21 victories in 2015, the Tigers finished last season 25-9, eclipsing 20 victories in consecutive years for just the second time since the jump to the NCAA. The Tigers also continued their climb to the top of the Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association, setting team records with 11 conference victories and a tie for fourth in the league standings.

Kurt Kohler’s squad was firing on all cylinders out of the gate, winning its first 12 matches. The Tigers first traveled to Goodwell, Oklahoma for the Aggies Challenge, sweeping their way through four regional opponents. FHSU opened the year with a three-set victory over UC-Colorado Springs, breaking the NCAA DII single set points record with a 38-36 victory in the third set (25-point rally scoring era, since 2008). The Tigers went on to defeat Northwestern Oklahoma State, Texas-Permian Basin and tournament host Oklahoma Panhandle State to complete the 4-0 opening weekend. Crystal Whitten was named MVP of the Aggies Challenge, while Hannah Wagy picked up AllTournament honors.

The Tigers then traveled to Salt Lake City, Utah for the Fairfield Inn & Suites Invitational, hosted by Westminster College. FHSU swept aside the Dustdevils of Texas A&M-International in straight sets before holding on to defeat Western New Mexico in five. Day two opened with a five-set victory over Westminster before wrapping up with a sweep of Minot State. Crystal Whitten once again earned tournament MVP honors, with Rebekah Spainhour joining her on the All-Tournament team.

The final non-conference tune-up for the Tigers took place in Denver, Colorado. The Tigers had little trouble against a quartet of NAIA opponents, sweeping through Central Christian and Graceland on day one before taking care of Haskell Indian Nations and tournament host Johnson & Wales on day two. Another 4-0 weekend gave the Tigers a 12-game winning streak to open the season, their first doubledigit win streak since 2003 (14 matches).

The Tigers entered conference play as one of eight undefeated teams remaining in DII. Unfortunately, FHSU had to match up with one of the other eight in third-ranked Nebraska-Kearney. The Black and Gold took the first set in a hostile environment on the road, but the Lopers rallied to win the match in four sets.

The Tigers returned to their winning ways in their home opener, knocking off Emporia State in four sets. FHSU then dropped consecutive matches for the only time in 2016, falling to No. 18 Washburn in four sets before losing a non-conference matchup with Colorado Christian.

Fort Hays State bounced back in a big way, knocking off No. 6 Central Missouri in four sets. After dropping the opening frame, the Tigers rallied to defeat the Jennies for just the second time in program history and the first time at home. The win snapped a 16-game losing streak against UCM, dating back to 2003. It also marked the second year in a row FHSU has knocked off an AVCA Top 10 team.

The Tigers opened October with a 3-0 win over Lindenwood before getting swept by No. 3 Nebraska-Kearney. FHSU completed the season-sweep of Emporia State the following weekend before coming up short against No. 17 Washburn.

FHSU then took a break from conference play for Pass, Set, Pink Night, sweeping both Oklahoma Panhandle State and Northwestern Oklahoma State. The Tigers returned to MIAA action with a loss to No. 10 Central Oklahoma before topping Pittsburg State and Lindenwood. The Black and Gold then fell to No. 15 Central Missouri before knocking off Southwest Baptist and Missouri Southern in their final home weekend.

The Tigers opened their final road trip with a five-set loss to Missouri Western before topping #21 Northwest Missouri State. Fort Hays State wrapped up the regular season with straight-set road wins over Missouri Southern and Southwest Baptist. The Tigers tied with Central Missouri for fourth in the MIAA standings, but had to travel to Warrensburg for the MIAA quarterfinals due to a tiebreaker. The Tigers battled in each set, but the Jennies came away with a four-set victory. The Tigers totaled 290 blocks on the year, breaking the rally scoring era record.

Fort Hays State had five All-MIAA selections for the second year in a row, matching the program record for most individual conference honors in a season. Senior outside hitter Crystal Whitten was a unanimous selection on the first team, while senior middle hitter Rebekah Spainhour also picked up first team honors. This marks the first time a Tiger has earned first team honors since joining the MIAA in 2006.

Junior middle hitter Callie Christensen earned second team honors while senior middle hitter Megan Anderson and senior setter Hannah Wagy both earned honorable mention accolades.

Crystal Whitten also earned AVCA All-America and first team All-Region honors, becoming the fifth Tiger all-time to earn national honors.

The Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association, a 14-member conference of NCAA Division II institutions in Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma and Nebraska, was first organized in 1912 as the Missouri Intercollegiate Athletic Association.

The MIAA has gained the reputation of being one of the top NCAA Division II conferences in the nation. MIAA student-athletes have won 36 NCAA team championships and, since 1963, more than 256 individual national titles. The MIAA currently conducts championships in 10 sports for men and 10 for women.

For the men, champions are crowned in football, soccer, cross country, Mike Racy basketball, wrestling, indoor and outdoor track & field, baseball, tennis MIAA Commissioner and golf. The women compete for titles in volleyball, cross country, soccer, basketball, bowling, indoor and outdoor track & field, softball, golf and tennis.

Mike Racy became the fifth full-time commissioner in MIAA history when he succeeded Dr. Bob Boerigter on February 1, 2017. Racy has more than 20 years of leadership experience in higher education, including a 14-year tenure as a Vice President for NCAA Division II. Larry House joined the MIAA staff in the summer of 2007 to assist in the marketing of the conference and its events, as well as aid in the league’s external affairs.
