LETTER FROM COACH GOLLOWAY
2011 MEDIA GUIDE CREDITS
Welcome to OU baseball, one of the most storied collegiate programs in the nation. The Sooners have built a strong tradition by winning National Championships in 1951 and 1994. Most recently, we made the program’s 10th College World Series appearance and are primed for another strong postseason run in 2011.
The 2011 Oklahoma baseball media guide is a production of the University of Oklahoma Athletics Communications office. The guide was written, designed and edited by Assistant Director of Athletics Communications Craig Moran. Additional contributions provided by student interns Ashley Elkins, Lawre Everest, Chris Jeter and Clark Wilson.
As a Sooner coach, I have been fortunate enough to be a part of four College World Series and the last five regional titles at Oklahoma. It’s fair to say that Sooner baseball is second to none when it comes to its student-athletes enjoying success on and off the field.

The University of Oklahoma Athletics Department is committed to excellence on the field and in the classroom and that is evident by the amount of resources available to our student-athletes. The expectations remain high and the goals are simple -- to present the studentathletes with the most competitive setting that will prepare them for success at OU and, in turn, in life. As a Sooner head coach, I recognize the outstanding leadership that has come before this coaching staff and the successful student-athletes who have represented this program. We acknowledge the awesome responsibility as caretakers of this program and work very hard to build upon its rich tradition.
