SOUTHLAND CONFERENCE 2011-12 PREVIEW TEAM PREVIEWS 2010-11 REVIEW HISTORY & RECORDS

THIS IS THE SOUTHLAND CONFERENCE In an era of considerable change in intercollegiate athletics, the Southland Conference continues to be a model of innovation, stability and consistent achievement as it celebrates the academic and athletic accomplishments of its member institutions. What began as a small gathering of college administrators nearly 50 years ago, the Southland Conference has transformed itself into a dynamic and respected consortium of 12 member universities in three states. Beginning with a historic meeting of five institutions in Dallas on March 15, 1963, that included current members Lamar University (then Lamar State College of Technology) and the University of Texas at Arlington (then Arlington State College), the Southland Conference set on an extraordinary course that has proven successful well into its fifth decade of existence. On July 1, 2006, the Southland Conference commemorated another milestone as the league membership reached 12, marking the largest configuration ever for the organization. The addition of the University of Central Arkansas and Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi expanded the Southland into the Little Rock, Ark., metro area and into the eighth largest city in Texas. Central Arkansas and A&M-Corpus Christi enhanced the Conference in innumerable ways, including athletic and academic successes, strong and principled leadership, and strong fan support and media coverage. In addition to its two newest members, the Southland Conference membership also consists of Lamar University, McNeese State University, Nicholls State University, Northwestern State University, Sam Houston State University, Southeastern Louisiana University, Stephen F. Austin State University, the University of Texas at Arlington, the University of Texas at San Antonio, and Texas State University-San Marcos. All told, the revised membership of the Southland encompasses more than 180,000 current students and an alumni base of approximately 920,000. Famous alums from Southland Conference schools include former President Lyndon B. Johnson (Texas State), former CBS news anchor Dan Rather (Sam

Houston State), retired U.S. Central Command General Tommy Franks (UT Arlington), NBA executive Joe Dumars (McNeese State), ABC news anchor Robin Roberts (Southeastern Louisiana), country music star George Strait (Texas State), Major League Baseball stars Hunter Pence (UT Arlington), Kevin Millar (Lamar) and Ben Broussard (McNeese State), NBA legend Scottie Pippen (Central Arkansas) and actor Lou Diamond Phillips (UT Arlington). The cities of the Southland are diverse and progressive, ranging from international business and cultural centers such as the Dallas/ Fort Worth metroplex, San Antonio and the New Orleans area, to the historical cities of Nacogdoches, Texas, and Natchitoches, La., to the home of the modern oil boom, Beaumont, Texas, to the unique Cajun French cultures found in the Louisiana cities of Thibodaux and Lake Charles. Southland Conference institutions also draw large numbers of students from the metropolitan areas of Houston, Little Rock, Baton Rouge, Austin, and Shreveport. The Southland sponsors 17 championship sports, all at the NCAA Division I level. The eight men’s sports include baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, tennis, and indoor and outdoor track and field. The women compete for nine championships in basketball, cross country, golf, soccer, softball, tennis, indoor and outdoor track and field, and volleyball. The conference earns automatic qualification to NCAA championships in baseball, men’s and women’s basketball, men’s and women’s cross country, football, men’s and women’s golf, women’s soccer, softball, men’s and women’s tennis, and volleyball. Continuing its tradition of innovation, the league launched the Southland Conference Television Network in the fall of 2008 and has already broadcast nearly 100 events. The network is expanding its reach to roughly 10 million households throughout Texas, Louisiana and Arkansas in 2011-12. In its first three years, the regional network has received recognition for its work. It received a national honorable mention award at the College Sports Media Award at the College Sports Video Summit in

Atlanta in June 2011 for its production of the 2010 Stephen F. Austin vs. Sam Houston State football game in the category of professional live event, competing with the likes of ESPN, Turner Sports, YES Network and other conference networks, including the Big Ten and Mountain West. In the summer of 2010, the network was recognized for the best live game or event in its category for the production of the 2009 McNeese State vs. Stephen F. Austin football game. The conference network has also collected four prestigious Telly Awards, including this past summer when the conference won a Silver Telly Award for its promotion of the 2011 Southland Conference basketball tournament. In January 2011, the Southland Conference, in conjunction with the city of Frisco, Texas and Hunt Sports Group, played host to the NCAA Division I Football Championship Game in Frisco, which has been home to the conference office since 2006. The game will be played at Frisco’s Pizza Hut Park for at least the next two seasons. Frisco was named the fastest growing city in the nation in 2010. Southland Conference football ranks among the best Football Championship Subdivision leagues in the nation, and enjoys an annual expectation of competing for the national championship with multiple teams advancing to the NCAA playoffs each year. In 2002 and 2003, McNeese State finished the regular season ranked No. 1 in the nation, and advanced to the 2002 national championship contest, the sixth such title game appearance since the league joined the Football Championship Subdivision (formerly I-AA) in 1982. All told, Southland teams have played in 93 Division I playoff games in 29 years, winning 43 of the contests. Historically, the Southland’s successful football heritage has sustained itself through numerous membership and classification changes. Originally an NAIA conference, the Southland joined the NCAA College Division in 1968. The College Division was re-named NCAA Division II in 1973, and the league played two seasons in that class, before joining Division I in 1975. The Southland was an NCAA Division I-A league from 1978-81, before joining the ranks

State in the NIT) for the second time since 2008 and enjoyed its first win in the NCAA tournament since 2006. Coaches such as Billy Tubbs, Mike Vining, Scotty Robertson, Jack Martin, Andy Russo, Bobby Paschal and Pat Foster have led teams in the Southland. In women’s basketball, the Southland also has its share of tradition with Louisiana-Monroe advancing to the 1985 NCAA Women’s Final Four, and Stephen F. Austin sustaining itself as one of the most successful programs in the history of the sport. In 2008, the Ladyjacks became the eighth program in NCAA Division I history to record more than 800 wins. In 2011, three Southland teams reached the postseason for the second consecutive season. McNeese State won its first conference tournament to earn its first NCAA tournament berth. Lamar was selected to play in its first WNIT and Central Arkansas played in its first Division I postseason tournament in the WBI. A Southland team has played in the WNIT 11 times, including each of the last five years. Women’s basketball all-stars have included Eun Jung Lee, Lisa Ingram, Portia Hill, Deneen Parker, Katrina Price, and Joskeen Garner, and coaches such as Gary Blair, Linda Sharp, James Smith and Linda Harper. Baseball has emerged as a huge Southland Conference strength with the league earning numerous national rankings and NCAA tournament berths. The Southland consistently ranks among the top-10 conferences in the country and that was no different in 2011 when 50 of the league’s 150 non-conference victories came against the Big 12, Conference USA, Sun Belt and SEC. Major leaguers such as Ben Sheets, Micah Hoffpauir, Hunter Pence, David Segui, Brian Lawrence, Ben Broussard, Chuck Finley, Jerald Clark, and Terry Matthews once played in the Southland. Former UT Arlington shortstop, Trey Hillman, a three-time all-conference selection from 1983-85, was manager for the Kansas City Royals from the 2007-10 seasons and coached the American League in the 2009 MLB All-Star Game.

Among the former NFL stars from the Southland include Fred Dean, who was inducted to the Professional Football Hall of Fame in 2008 to become the first former Southland Conference player to earn induction in Canton. Other great NFL players from the Southland include Super Bowl XXIX quarterback Stan Humphries, Bill Bergey, Mike Barber, Fred Barnett, Bubby Brister, Ray Brown, Roger Carr, Larry Centers, Bruce Collie, Jackie Harris, Buford Jordan, Tim McKyer, Kavika Pittman, Billy Ryckman, Rickey Sanders, Eugene Seale, Rafael Septien, Terrance Shaw, Marcus Spears, Pat Tilley and Marvin Upshaw. The Southland Conference has also seen its share of great coaches during its history in Maxie Lambright, Ernie Duplechin, Sam Goodwin, Jack Doland, Bennie Ellender, Bobby Keasler, Larry Lacewell, Bill Davidson, Dennis Franchione, Pat Collins, and Ron Randleman. In addition to football, the Southland Conference can point to a number of accomplishments in all sports. Men’s basketball has experienced a tremendous amount of success during the Southland’s 45-plus years. The league has sent two teams to the NCAA Sweet Sixteen, as well as a squad to the NIT Final Four. Basketball stars Karl Malone, Joe Dumars, Jeff Foster, Dwight “Bo” Lamar, Andrew Toney, Devin Brown, and Mike Oliver played in the Southland Conference. In 2006, Northwestern State, playing as the No. 14 seed in the NCAA tournament, defeated No. 3 seed Iowa, 64-63, in first-round action. The Southland took another step forward in 2011.

of FCS in 1982, its home ever since. During its tenure as a Division I-A conference, the Southland Conference was instrumental in the startup of the Independence Bowl in 1976. The Southland representative served as the host team of the bowl until 1980, compiling a 2-3 record in those contests. The conference can lay claim to five national championships, including College Division championships through former members Arkansas State (1970, UPI) and Louisiana Tech (1972, National Football Foundation). Louisiana Tech also won the first NCAA-sanctioned national title, winning the Division II playoffs in 1973. Tech followed that with the UPI’s Division II national championship in 1974. Louisiana-Monroe won the 1987 national championship. McNeese State, which has made 14 appearances in the national playoffs, played in the 1997 and 2002 NCAA Division I Championship games, while Stephen F. Austin played in the 1989 title game and has six playoff appearances, including each of the last two seasons. Northwestern State has played in the playoffs six times, and advanced to the semifinals in 1998, while Sam Houston State has earned four trips to the postseason, including the semifinals in 2004. Nicholls State has participated three times in the playoffs. On four occasions, the Southland has placed three teams in the national 16-team playoffs. Five of the eight current football-playing members have qualified for the FCS playoffs. The Southland has produced 156 first-team football All-Americans during its history and in 2010, Stephen F. Austin quarterback Jeremy Moses became the first player in Southland history to receive the Walter Payton Award, which is presented annually to the most outstanding football player at the FCS level. The Southland is one of three FCS conferences with at least 200 selections (204) in the National Football League draft. The league also ranks third in the FCS with 24 players taken in the draft since 2000 and has 18 former players on NFL rosters heading into the 2011 season. The Southland Conference has also sent such talent to the professional ranks as Buffalo’s Terrence McGee (Northwestern State) and

players from the Southland get drafted, matching its best draft in conference history (1995), to push the all-time draft total to 439 selections. In 2010, UT Arlington’s Michael Choice became the seventh Southland player taken in the first round, selected by Oakland with the 10th overall selection. He joins Ben Sheets (LouisianaMonroe) as the league’s highest draft pick. The two are the only players in Southland history to be taken in the top 10 of the draft. In 2011, Jim Gilligan became the first Southland coach to reach 1,200 career victories, ranking him sixth-best in the NCAA among active Division I coaches and 24th all-time. Gilligan joined the Southland Conference Hall of Honor in 2011. After 26 years as a college head coach, including the last five years at Sam Houston State, Mark Johnson, a Southwestern baseball legend, retired following the 2011 season. He was the 44th Division I coach to win more than 1,000 career games (1,043). He is among an impressive list of coaches who have patrolled Southland Conference dugouts, including Mike Bianco, John Cohen, Mitch Gaspard, Smoke Laval, Butch McBroom, Pat Patterson, Tony Robichaux, Dave Van Horn and Jim Wells. Softball continues to enjoy success on a national level, annually beating at least one nationally ranked opponent since 1995. In 2011, the league had four wins against ranked opponents, including a win by Stephen F. Austin at No. 3 Texas. In the 2003 NCAA tournament, UT Arlington and Texas State enjoyed unprecedented success as each won two games in the national event. In 19 years of NCAA tournament competition the Southland has racked up 14 wins. The Southland has a proud history in volleyball with UT Arlington representing the conference eight times in the NCAA tournament, advancing all the way to the NCAA Volleyball Final Four in 1989. Track and field has also served as a proud asset for the Southland Conference as the league has produced numerous national champions and Olympic medalists. The Southland boasts 28 men and three women student-athletes who have won NCAA track and field national

championships, including Northwestern State’s Trecey Rew, who won the women’s discus in 2011, Texas A&M-Corpus Christi’s Shadrack Songok (10,000-meter run) in 2007 and 2008 and McNeese State’s Brad Gebauer (pole vault) in 2007. The league has also produced U.S. Olympic track and field medalists Earl Bell, Thomas Hill, Al Joyner and Charles Austin, Liudmila Litvinova, along with other Olympians. With the addition of five more All-Americans in 2011, the league continues to find national success in both indoor and outdoor track and field. In the indoor circuit, the Southland boasts 62 unique all-time AllAmericans that have won a combined 11 national championships. Likewise, in the outdoor season, the league has seen 152 different All-Americans, including 123 men and 29 women, who have combined to win 21 national championships. Golf has traditionally been a strong Southland sport as exemplified by Lamar men’s golfer Chris Stroud, who finished third individually at the 2003 NCAA National Championship and is a member of the PGA Tour. Both Stroud and former Southeastern Louisiana golfer Hugo Leon competed in the 2010 U.S. Open. The league has sent multiple teams into postseason play on numerous occasions, including in 2011 when three Southland teams – UT Arlington, Lamar, Southeastern Louisiana – competed in the NCAA tournament. Additionally, during the past three seasons the Southland has sent nine golfers to compete as individuals in regional play with five in 2009, three more in 2010 and one in 2011. Lamar won a pair of NCAA Division II national championships in 1967 and 1968, and also produced PGA player Ronnie Black. In 2005, Lamar’s Dawie Van Der Walt finished fourth individually and Lamar tied for 12th place at the NCAA Men’s Golf Championship, before the Cardinals tied for ninth in 2006 and tied for third in 2007. Former Lamar golfer Casey Clendenon advanced to the semifinals of the U.S. Amateur in 2007. Southland tennis has also experienced national prominence. UT Arlington All-American Andy Leber was the 2002 ITA/Ted Farnsworth National Senior Co-Player of the Year after a 43-3 record and earning the nation’s No. 2 ranking.

In women’s tennis, Southeastern Louisiana won 46 consecutive conference matches during a four-year period that began in 2005. The conference has increased sponsorship and championship opportunities for female student-athletes in recent years, adding women’s golf and soccer as league sports. The Southland Conference has repeatedly demonstrated its commitment to the academic and athletic success of its student-athletes. With the F.L. McDonald Postgraduate Scholarship Award, the league annually honors one male and one female scholar-athlete with a stipend for postgraduate study. The Scholar-Athlete Award is given to each institution’s male and female student-athlete with the highest grade-point average. The Steve McCarty Citizenship Award, initiated in 2005-06 and named after the former Stephen F. Austin athletic director, properly recognizes accomplishments off the court for a male and female student-athlete. Also, studentathletes with grade-point averages above 3.0 are honored on the Southland’s annual All-Academic teams and Commissioner’s Honor Roll. A record 953 student-athletes appeared on the honor roll following the 2011 spring semester. While successful on the fields and courts, the Southland Conference has repeatedly demonstrated its commitment to the academic and athletic success of its student-athletes. The conference continues to make great strides in the classroom. During the last five years, no other Division I conference has improved its Academic Progress Rate as well as the Southland Conference has. In the most recent year of data collection, 2009-10, the Southland ranked 10th among the 31 Division I leagues in men’s basketball APR. The academic progress the league has shown ultimately leads to higher graduation rates for our student-athletes. In addition to providing expanding opportunities for student-athletes, the Southland Conference and its member institutions are very involved in various community outreach programs. Many of these programs provide positive life skills training such as academics, citizenship and leadership to school-aged students in Southland communities.

SOUTHLAND CONFERENCE

SOUTHLAND COMMISSIONER TOM BURNETT Commissioner Ninth Year Joined Southland: Dec. 23, 2002 Alma Mater: Louisiana Tech, 1988 Tom Burnett was named the Southland Conference’s sixth commissioner on Dec. 23, 2002, and brought a diverse background in athletics administration experience at the conference and national levels. Now the second-longest tenured full-time commissioner in league history, Burnett is in his ninth year of service with the Southland, and has a conference administrative background reaching over two decades. Burnett has helped to enhance the Southland’s membership, with addition of the University of Central Arkansas and Texas A&M UniversityCorpus Christi in July, 2006. The new membership gave the league 12 member institutions, the largest configuration in the conference’s 48year history. The league’s television exposure has expanded under his watch with the creation of the Southland Conference Television Network in 2008. This broadcast venture has since featured approximately 100 unique sports and promotional telecasts to a potential viewing audience of more than 13 million television households. The Southland also signed a multiyear agreement with the ESPN family of networks in 2010, and the league has had longstanding relationships with Fox Sports Net Southwest and Cox Sports Television. He also recently led the successful communitywide effort to bring the 2011-13 NCAA Division I Football Championship Games to Frisco, Texas, as the Southland serves as the host conference for the national title contests at Pizza Hut

Park. A leading proponent for the Football Championship Subdivision, Burnett organized the first FCS Summit, a national gathering of athletic directors, commissioners, NCAA staff and other key football stakeholders held prior to the 2011 national championship game. A former member of both the NCAA’s Division I Committee on Academic Performance and the Division I Football Academic Working Group, Burnett also served as the FCS Vice President for the Collegiate Commissioners Association (CCA) in 2007-08. He is also a member of the Board of Directors for NCAA Football, the organization that serves to improve, promote and protect college football for those who play, coach and support the game. In 2004, Burnett also began the league’s renewed efforts to secure corporate sponsorships. Since then, the Southland has secured sponsorship agreements with State Farm Insurance, Capital One Bank, Toyota, American Airlines, Royal Purple Motor Oil, Best Western Hotels, O’Reilly Auto Parts, BellSouth, Aeropostale, Holiday Inn, Academy Sports and Outdoors, and Advantage Rent-A-Car. He also initiated efforts to bring the Southland Conference basketball tournaments to a neutral site in the Houston area, giving the league a year-end celebration of the sport at a centralized location near much of the Southland’s largest alumni and student bases. Prior to joining the Southland, Burnett spent nearly 11 years in a number of roles with the Sun Belt Conference, including stints as associate

and assistant commissioner, and director of communications. He also served two years on the staff of the American South Conference. His previous responsibilities included championships administration, public and media relations, television production and negotiation, scheduling, marketing, NCAA championship and committee service, and football bowl experience. While at the Sun Belt, Burnett worked in the development of football as a league-sponsored sport, and was an administrator with the New Orleans Bowl, which began in 2001. He also produced the Sun Belt’s television packages with ESPN Regional Television, which debuted in 2002. In addition, he has experience negotiating television agreements with regional sports networks such as Fox Sports Net, Comcast/ Charter Sports Southeast and numerous local television stations and cable systems. He also provided oversight of Sun Belt championship events and administered more than 100 league tournaments. In 2000, he began exclusively administering the Sun Belt’s men’s and women’s basketball tournaments, which grew from minimal financial successes into events that grossed the conference $1.2 million during a three-year period. Burnett has also served in an administrative capacity with numerous NCAA events, including national championships in men’s and women’s basketball, track and field, baseball and volleyball. He represented the Southland Conference on the NCAA Division I Management Council in 2004-05, and served on the Division I Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) Governance Committee from 2004-06. Burnett previously served on the NCAA Playing Rules Oversight Panel, and the NCAA Baseball Rules Committee. Burnett, 47, is a native of Houston, Texas, and is a 1988 graduate of Louisiana Tech University, where he studied journalism and spent one year as the sports editor of the school’s student newspaper. He and his wife Tracy, a native of Baton Rouge, La., are the parents of a son, Cole, and a daughter, Jesse.

HISTORY & RECORDS

As one of the nation’s newest and innovative broadcast opportunities, the award-winning Southland Conference Television Network became a reality in 2008 and has broadcast more than 100 events during its first three-plus years. The network has earned a College Sports Media Award (2009) and an honorable mention (2010) at the College Sports Video Summit in Atlanta as well as four prestigious Telly Awards. The conference will feature 15 live basketball telecasts during the 2011-12 season. The entire package will be carried across the Southland’s network of affiliated television stations, plus online at SLC NOW. Select match-ups will air nationwide on ESPN Full Court. “We’re very pleased to announce another season of outstanding basketball broadcasts,” Burnett said. “The Southland Network has provided welcome and compelling programming during the last three years, and the ‘in-house’ concept of our broadcast effort has been mimicked by other conferences as a unique and effective way to promote institutions and their student-athletes.” The network will open its broadcast schedule Wednesday, Jan. 4, when the men’s team from Texas A&M-Corpus Christi plays host to Lamar. The second telecast will take the crew to Conway, as the Stephen F. Austin men face Central Arkansas Jan. 11. The first women’s basketball broadcast of the season will emanate from the University Center in Hammond on Jan. 18, as the Southeastern Louisiana Lady Lions take on defending Southland Conference champion McNeese State. Later, men’s basketball’s version of the “Battle of the Piney Woods” takes place on Jan. 25, when Stephen F. Austin hosts Sam Houston State. That’s followed by a visit to Northwestern State for a women’s game between the Lady Demons and 2011 WNIT participant Central Arkansas on Feb. 1. Three consecutive men’s games then appear on the schedule: UT Arlington at Sam Houston State (Feb. 8), UTSA at McNeese State in a rematch of the 2011 Southland Conference Tournament championship game (Feb. 15) and Texas State at Southeastern Louisiana (Feb. 22). The only Saturday game on the Southland Conference Television Network schedule is Feb. 25, when the Lamar women’s squad plays host Sam Houston State. The regular season schedule wraps up the following weekend with the men’s teams from Nicholls State and Northwestern State Feb. 29. The network will carry the women’s and men’s semifinals of the Southland Conference tournament on Thursday, March 8. The broadcast schedule concludes with the women’s championship game on Friday, March 9. Check southland.org/television for a complete list of affiliates.

SOUTHLAND CONFERENCE

On the strength of two regular-season team championships and seven top-three finishes, UTSA claimed its second Southland Conference Commissioner’s Cup for the 2010-11 academic year. UTSA compiled 142.5 points to edge last year’s Cup winner, Stephen F. Austin, by one point with 141.5 points. The Roadrunners won their first Cup in 2008 and have finished as the runnerup in four of the last five Cup standings. UTSA is one of four Southland universities to win at least two Commissioner’s Cups, joining Sam Houston State, UT Arlington and Texas State. UTSA totaled 78.5 points to win their first outright women’s all-sports trophy in program history. The Roadrunners finished in a first-place tie with former conference member Louisiana-Monroe in 1994. Since that time, UTSA has finished in the top four 12 times with four secondplace scores. The Roadrunners had 64 points to finish second in the men’s all-sports trophy standings behind Stephen F. Austin, which totaled 69 points. UTSA, which won the men’s all-sports trophy in 2006 and 2008, has been one of the more consistent programs in the conference, finishing no less than third in each of the last eight seasons. The UTSA women won their first golf championship and finished in the top five in five other sports, including second place in soccer and volleyball. The UTSA men won their sixth consecutive indoor track and field title and recorded a top-five finish in four other sports, including second place in tennis and outdoor track and field. Stephen F. Austin, the 2010 Commissioner’s Cup winner, was one point shy of claiming a share of its second overall trophy in the last two seasons. SFA was equally impressive in 2011 as the men’s and women’s programs combined to win five conference championships. The men claimed titles in football and outdoor track and field and the women swept championships in cross country and both indoor and outdoor track and field. Texas State (124), UT Arlington (121.5) and Sam Houston State (119.5), came in third, fourth and fifth place, respectively, by a margin of less than five points. McNeese State (112.5) finished sixth, Lamar (110), was seventh and Texas A&M-Corpus Christi (89.5) finished in eighth place. Northwestern State (83.0), Central Arkansas (80.0), Southeastern Louisiana (80.0) and Nicholls (64.0) round out this year’s standings. The Commissioner’s Cup is awarded annually to the top overall athletics program in the Southland Conference. Texas State leads all member institutions with four. In the 14-year history of the Commissioner’s Cup, UT Arlington and Sam Houston State each have three, UTSA now has two, and Northwestern State and Stephen F. Austin have one apiece. The Southland Conference all-sports trophies are awarded annually for men’s and women’s competition based on a 12-point system for all conference sports. Point values are 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 and 1, pending place of finish. Regular-season standings are used for sports that have a conference tournament. The Commissioner’s Cup is awarded to the university compiling the highest combined total of men’s and women’s all-sports points.


The Southland Conference presents five academic accolades to recognize student-athletes within the league who demonstrate excellence in the classroom and superior athletic achievements on the field or court. These academic honors include the Commissioner’s Academic Honor Roll, the All-Academic teams, the Southland Conference Student-Athlete of the Year, the Southland Conference Scholar-Athlete awards and the F.L. McDonald Postgraduate Scholarship awards.

Commissioner’s Academic Honor Roll

Now called the Commissioner’s Academic Honor Roll, the Southland Conference acknowledges all participants in all sports sponsored by the league and its member institutions. The honor roll is released within 30 days at the conclusion of the fall and spring semesters, recognizing student-athletes who maintained a 3.0 or better grade-point average. Student-athletes, nominated by their respective academic advisors, must have been eligible to compete in a Conference sport during the academic year in which the nomination occurs. The honor roll was first dubbed Southland Conference All-Academic and then the Southland Conference Honor Roll. It changed for a third time to the Commissioner’s List, beginning with the 1996-97 season, before acquiring its current title in the 2003-04 academic year.

Southland Conference All-Academic Teams

The Southland Conference announces all-academic teams in all 17 championship sports to recognize those student-athletes who excel in the classroom and on the field or court. Nominated by each institution’s athletic media relations director and selected by a voting contingent made up of sports information directors, head coaches and academic or compliance administrators, all-academic team members must have posted at least a cumulative 3.0 grade-point average, completed at least one full academic year at the member institution prior to the season in which the nomination occurs, and competed in a minimum of 50 percent of the sport’s contests during the most recently completed season. Student-athletes receiving CoSIDA national academic honors are automatically named to the Southland all-academic first team. Allacademic teams are announced in conjunction with the conference’s student-athlete of the year in each sport. One team shall be selected for cross country, indoor and outdoor track and field within 30 days following the outdoor championship.

HISTORY & RECORDS

Southland Conference Student-Athlete of the Year

Established in the 2002-03 academic year, the conference honors one student-athlete from each of the 17 championship sports who achieves excellence in academics, athletics and community/campus service. The student-athlete of the year, selected by the league’s awards committee, will have attained athletics achievement for at least two years at the nominating institution, possess at least a 3.20 cumulative grade-point average and demonstrated extracurricular service at his/her campus and/or community. The recipient of the student-athlete of the year award is announced in conjunction with the all-academic teams in each sport.

Southland Conference Scholar-Athlete

Beginning with the 1996-97 season, the conference annually recognizes the outstanding male and female student-athletes from each of the league’s member institutions. Student-athletes must be a letterwinner with a minimum 3.20 cumulative grade-point average and have completed at least two years of intercollegiate competition at the school from which he/ she was nominated. The student-athletes are selected by their respective institution administrators.

F.L. McDonald Postgraduate Scholarship

The F.L. McDonald Postgraduate Scholarship is presented annually to graduating male and female letterwinners with the highest cumulative grade-point averages during their enrollment at Southland member schools. The $2,500 scholarship must be applied to graduate study at an institution of the recipient’s choice. The award was established in memory of Dr. F.L. McDonald in 199697, a former president of Lamar University and 1999 Southland Hall of Honor inductee. McDonald served as Lamar’s president in 1963 when the Southland Conference was established and is considered one of the league’s founding fathers. Each member institution may nominate one male and one female student-athlete who meet the following criteria: a letterwinner in a Conference sport, be on track to graduate during the spring in which they are nominated or the subsequent summer, and plan to attend graduate school no later than the second fall following the receipt of the award. The 2010-11 scholarships were presented by Toyota.

UTSA Tabbed as Preseason Pick in West Division, but Coaches and SIDs Split on East Division Favorite UTSA, which won the 2011 Southland Conference Tournament and earned the league’s first win in the NCAA tournament since 2006, was the pick to win the West Division in both the coaches’ and sports information directors preseason polls. The Roadrunners welcome back 74 percent of their scoring and 79 percent of their rebounding from last year’s squad that won 20 games for the first time in 19 seasons. A pair of former Southland freshmen of the year – junior guard Melvin Johnson III and sophomore forward Jeromie Hill – headline the list of returning Roadrunners. While the pick in the West Division appeared to be easy, the coaches and SIDs selected different teams to win the East Division. The SIDs went with McNeese State, which won the Southland Conference regularseason championship last year, while the coaches selected Northwestern State, which was the No. 2 seed last year in its first berth in the conference tournament since 2008. McNeese, which hosted Boston College in the postseason NIT last year, returns just one starter from a team that finished 21-12 overall and 11-5 in league play. Patrick Richard, a first-team all-conference pick last season, will have to shoulder the brunt of the load for the Cowboys. He averaged 16.1 points, 6.4 rebounds and 2.5 assists per game a season ago. Two Demon starters return, including Will Mosley, who led the nation in blocked shots with 156 rejections, an average of 4.9 per game, and Louis Ellis, the team’s top returning scorer, who averaged 8.8 points per game. In the East Division coaches’ poll, four teams garnered first-place votes, including Northwestern State (4), McNeese State (3), Lamar (3) and Southeastern Louisiana (2). Central Arkansas and Nicholls State rounded out the coaches picks in that division. UTSA was the overwhelming pick in the West Division and garnered eight first-place votes. Texas State (2), UT Arlington (1) and Stephen F. Austin (1) also collected top picks. Sam Houston State and Texas A&M-Corpus Christi rounded out the selections in the west. Seven SIDs picked McNeese State to win the East Division. Lamar (2), Northwestern State (2) and Southeastern Louisiana (1) also received first-place votes. Nicholls State and Central Arkansas round out the preseason picks in the east. In the West, five teams earned at least one first-place votes, but UTSA received six as the top pick among SIDs. Stephen F. Austin received three first-place votes, while UT Arlington, Texas State and Sam Houston State each received one. A&M-Corpus Christi was picked sixth. Four All-Conference Selections Return for 2011-12 Season Four players who earned All-Southland Conference honors last season return to highlight the preseason all-conference teams as selected by the league’s coaches. McNeese State guard Patrick Richard, Stephen F. Austin center Jereal Scott, Northwestern State center Will Mosley and Southeastern Louisiana guard Brandon Fortenberry make up four of the five spots on the first team. Richard and Scott earned first-team honors after the 2010-11 season, while Mosley was a second-team pick and Fortenberry a third-team honoree. They are joined on the preseason first team by Jeromie Hill, the 2011 Southland Conference Freshman of the Year. Richard, who was the state player of the year in Louisiana, averaged 16.1 points per game in helping lead the Cowboys to the conference regular-season championship and berth in the NIT. Scott averaged 13.3 points and 5.8 rebounds while shooting 68.9 percent from the floor as the Lumberjacks reached the conference tournament for the sixth consecutive year. Mosley led the nation with 156 blocked shots and 4.9 rejections per game. He averaged 7.9 points and 8.8 rebounds per game as the Demons earned the No. 2 seed in the conference tournament. Fortenberry was the Lions’ second-leading scorer last year, averaging 11.9 points per game. He led the team and ranked fourth in the Southland with 4.2 assists per game. Hill, an honorable mention all-conference pick last year, led all conference freshmen in scoring (13.4), rebounding (6.6) and field goal percentage (47.5) and earned a spot on the conference all-tournament team with averages of 19.0 points and 5.3 rebounds to go with a game-winning dunk in a first-round upset of Northwestern State. The second-team preseason all-conference squad consists of UT Arlington forward Bo Ingram, UTSA guard Melvin Johnson III, UT Arlington forward/guard LaMarcus Reed, Lamar forward Devon Lamb and guard Mike James. Ingram became the first Maverick to be named the conference newcomer of the year in 2010-11 after he averaged 11.2 points and 5.1 rebounds per game. Johnson was the second leading scorer for the Roadrunners last year and averaged 14.9 points and 3.5 rebounds. He poured in 25 first-half points en route to a career-high 29 points in the win over Alabama State in the NCAA First Four. Reed is the most experienced player on the UT Arlington roster. He has made 41 starts in 82 career games and has averaged 8.0 points and 3.7 rebounds during his career. Reed averaged 12.4 points and 4.9 rebounds last season. Lamb averaged 9.5 points and 8.3 rebounds per game. James set the Lamar record with 52 points against Louisiana College and tied the school record with 11 3-pointers in the game. He averaged 12.5 points per game. All 12 Southland Teams to Play in Sears BracketBusters All 12 Southland Conference teams will participate in Sears BracketBusters this season. The schedule won’t be announced until Jan. 30, but league teams with home games in this year’s BracketBusters are McNeese State, Nicholls State, Northwestern State, Sam Houston State, Southeastern Louisiana and Stephen F. Austin. The other eight teams, including Central Arkansas, Lamar, UT Arlington, UTSA, Texas A&M-Corpus Christi and Texas State, will have road games.

Northwestern State has previously played in two BracketBusters matchups and rode its first appearance in 2006 at Utah State to a first-round upset over Iowa in the NCAA tournament. The Demons also met Tennessee Tech in a BracketBusters game. Stephen F. Austin also played in 2006 and Sam Houston State played in 2007. While the conference is winless in its four previous BracketBusters games, which have all been played on the road, the league won all four of the guaranteed return games the next year.

2011-12 PREVIEW

Southland Conference men’s basketball has experienced a tremendous amount of success during the league’s 48 years. The league has sent two teams to the NCAA Sweet Sixteen, in 1980 and 1985 respectively, as well as a squad to the NIT Final Four in 1986. Basketball stars Karl Malone, Joe Dumars, Jeff Foster, Dwight ‘Bo’ Lamar, Andrew Toney, Devin Brown and Mike Oliver played in the Southland Conference and NBA. The league’s basketball history has experienced recent success in the tournament, which expanded to 68 teams in 2011. UTSA played in the inaugural First Four in Dayton, Ohio, where it beat Alabama State, 70-61, to earn a second-round game against top-ranked Ohio State. In 2006, Northwestern State, as the No. 14 seed in the NCAA tournament, defeated No. 3 seed Iowa, 64-63 in the first round, thanks to a three-point basket with 0.5 seconds remaining from Jermaine Wallace. Trinity was the first Southland Conference school to qualify for the NCAA tournament, qualifying for the 1969 tournament, after the league began basketball competition in 1964. The league’s first win in the NCAA tournament came 10 years later in 1979, as No. 10 seed Lamar knocked off No. 7 seed Detroit, 95-87. The next year, in 1980, Lamar became first league school to qualify for the NCAA tournament’s Sweet 16. The league’s second NCAA tournament Sweet Sixteen berth was in 1985, as Karl Malone led No. 5 seed Louisiana Tech to wins against No. 12 seed Pittsburgh, 78-54, and No. 4 seed Ohio State, 79-67. The league has also experienced first-round wins in the 1979, 1981, 1983, 1984, 2006 and 2011 tournaments, while winning an openinground game in 2001. The Southland Conference has also experienced success in the National Invitational Tournament. The first school to participate in the NIT was Louisiana-Lafayette in 1980, the year of the league’s first two wins in the tournament. The league sent a league-best three schools

26

to the 1986 NIT, as Louisiana Tech, McNeese State and Lamar all qualified. While the Cardinals were eliminated in the opening round, Louisiana Tech advanced to the Final Four, defeating Northern Arizona, 67-61, McNeese State, 77-61, Providence, 64-63, before falling to Ohio State, 79-66. The team did rebound to finish third in the tournament, knocking off Florida, 67-62. The Southland has also seen eight league players selected in the opening round of the NBA Draft, including a league-best two players in the 1985 draft. Louisiana Tech’s Karl Malone was drafted No. 13 overall by the Utah Jazz and McNeese State’s Joe Dumars was drafted No. 18 by the Detroit Pistons. The highest Southland Conference draftee was Louisiana Tech’s Mike Green, who was taken No. 4 by the Seattle Supersonics in 1973. Other Southland first-round selections include Louisiana-Lafayette’s Andrew Toney, drafted No. 8 overall by the Philadelphia 76ers in 1980, Lamar’s Tom Sewell selected No. 22 by the Philadelphia 76ers in 1984 and Texas State’s Jeff Foster, who was taken No. 21 by the Indiana Pacers in 1999. Stephen F. Austin, although it was not a member of the Southland Conference at the time, had five players drafted in the 1970 NBA Draft, and is one of only eight schools to have five players selected in a single draft, joining UCLA, UNLV, North Carolina, Indiana, Florida and Kentucky. Over the years, Southland Conference schools have earned victories over Texas Tech, Houston, Kentucky, Mississippi State, Iowa, Oklahoma State, Missouri, Texas A&M, Oklahoma, LSU, Alabama, Pittsburgh, Oregon, Oregon State, Southern California, Texas, Arizona and Gonzaga. The Southland Conference has also seen its school’s receive national recognition in the final top-25 polls, as Louisiana-Lafayette finished No. 8 and No. 7 in the 1972 and 1973 polls, respectively, while Louisiana Tech finished No. 8 in 1985.

2010-11 REVIEW

Central Arkansas is looking forward to its second season under the guidance of head coach Corliss Williamson. The Bears finished 5-24 last season in the former All-American and NBA player’s first year as head coach. With a year under his belt and seven new players to fit into his system, things are looking up for the Bears in 2011-12. UCA returns five players with experience, including three seniors. Two of those, guard Dewan Clayborn and forward Chris Henson, have been in the program for four years. Forward Mark Rutledge transferred to UCA from Connors State before the 2010-11 season. Rutledge is UCA’s top returning scorer after averaging 9.6 points and 4.2 rebounds a year ago. He had season highs of 23 points against Southeastern Louisiana and scored 19 two other times. Rutledge connected on 22 three-pointers and also handed out 58 assists. Clayborn, who started 19 games at point guard, averaged 8.7 points and 2.4 rebounds and also made 31 three-pointers, shooting 36 percent from beyond the arc. Clayborn, from Little Rock Parkview, scored a season-high 16 points against Tennessee-Martin and made a season-high four threes against Stephen F. Austin. Henson started 13 games and is the Bears’ top returning rebounder at 4.6 per game. He had a career-high 114 rebounds last season and had season highs of 18 points and 10 rebounds, both against Champion Baptist. Two other returnees saw considerable action a year ago. Sophomore Ryan Williams, a walkon from Pine Bluff, Ark., played in 28 games with seven starts and averaged 5.2 points and 3.9 rebounds a game. He scored a career-high 19 points against UTSA in the next-to-last game of the season. Williams shot 82.5 percent from the free-throw line for the season. Junior center Terry Tidwell, from Conway by way of Arkansas-Pine Bluff, played in 18 games and averaged 3.9 points and 3.1 rebounds. He had highs of eight points (three times) and eight rebounds. Two players who sat out last season and are expected to be big contributors this season are sophomore guard LaQuentin Miles and forward Jordan Harks. Miles, from Jacksonville, Ark., transferred from Southeast Missouri last year. Harks, from Lombard, Ill., came to UCA from Olivet Nazarene. Five newcomers look to bolster the Bears lineup, beginning with junior center Anthony Borden, a transfer from Holmes Community College and orginally a highly touted prospect from West Memphis (Ark.) High School. Borden was rated the No. 19 high school senior in 2009 by ESPN. At Holmes, Borden averaged 11.5 points and 6.3 rebounds. Former Conway High School forward Jarvis Garner comes to UCA from Connors State, along with teammate Robert Crawford, a guard who actually returns to UCA. Garner averaged 14 points and nine rebounds a game at Connors, and prior to that, was voted the Most Outstanding Player at the 2009 Arkansas High School All-Star Game. Crawford redshirted as a freshman at UCA in 2008-09 before transferring to Connors. Crawford, who played at Victory Christian in Tulsa, averaged 17 points and 7 rebounds and was an All-NJCAA Region 2 selection as a sophomore at Connors. Freshman guard Carlin Bremner from Davidson, N.C., will help at both the point guard and shooting guard positions after averaging 21 points and 4 assists per game at North Mecklenburg High School. Freshman guard/forward Darius Singleton is expected to play multiple positions for the Bears. He averaged 17 points and 10 rebounds at Sachse (Texas) High School, where he was rated the No. 49 player in Texas by Rivals.com, and the No. 10 small forward in the state. In addition to the usual Southland Conference schedule, the Bears will have tough non-conference road games at UNLV, Stanford, Iowa and Drake, and an in-state battle with Arkansas State.

Head Coach Maryland, 2003 Second Year Record at UCA: 5-24 Career Record: 5-24 (2nd Yr.) Former NBA player, NCAA All-American and Arkansas Sports Hall of Famer Corliss Williamson became the head basketball coach at the University of Central Arkansas on March 12, 2010. In his first season at UCA, the Bears struggled to a 5-24 overall record. But Williamson and his coaching staff have brought in five newcomers and three redshirts for the 2011-12 season and expect bigger and better things. Williamson, a former two-time All-American at Arkansas and an NBA champion with the Detroit Pistons, coached three seasons at Arkansas Baptist College in Little Rock, and served as head coach during the 2009-10 season. Prior to his coaching stint at ABC, Williamson played 12 years in the National Basketball Association, helping the Pistons to the NBA championship in 2004. He played for the Sacramento Kings, the Toronto Raptors, the Detroit Pistons and the Philadelphia 76ers. He was named the NBA’s Sixth Man of the Year while playing for the Pistons in 2001-02. His NBA career averages were 11.1 points per game, 3.9 rebounds per game and 1.2 assists per game in 822 career games. Williamson shot 49 percent from the field and 71.4 percent from the free-throw line. Williamson was a two-time Gatorade National Player of the Year for the Russellville Cyclones before signing with Arkansas, where he was a two-time Southeastern Conference Player of the Year (1994 and 1995) and the Most Outstanding Player of the 1994 NCAA Final Four, where he led the Razorbacks to the national championship against Duke.

HISTORY & RECORDS

Under the direction of first-year head coach Pat Knight, Lamar will begin a new era on the basketball court this season. Knight inherits 10 returning letterwinners, including four starters, as he looks to return the Cardinals to the top of the Southland Conference standings. While the Cardinals were one of the most prolific scoring teams in the nation last season (82.1 ppg), defense will be the name of the game under Knight. The key for Lamar this season will be establishing its defense and making its opponents as uncomfortable as possible. Knight will use his bevy of guards to pressure the ball, get in the passing lanes and create turnovers. Lamar will employ strong man-to-man pressure and a match-up zone which will also fuel the Cardinals on the offensive end. The Cardinals will look to take the vast majority of their shots in the lane or from the freethrow line. No longer wanting to live and die by the 3-point shot, Lamar will look for its guards to penetrate and create easy shots. There is no shortage of talent in the Cardinals’ backcourt, led by senior point guard Anthony Miles. Miles enters the season just 21 points shy of 1,000 for his career, yet still led Lamar with 3.9 assists per game last year. Miles’ style of play fits in with Knight’s philosophy as the Houston native scored most of his buckets from inside the arc, and he was able to knock down 86.5 percent of his free throw attempts on the year. Fellow senior Mike James returns after leading the Cardinals in scoring at 12.5 points per game last season. An explosive scorer who established a new Lamar single game record of 52 points last year, James looked outstanding in Lamar’s three-game Canada tour in August, averaging 26.0 points and 4.0 steals per contest. Two other senior guards will also see significant time for the Cardinals, though their games are vastly different. Devon Lamb established himself as one of the top rebounders in the Southland Conference. A quick jumper and outstanding athlete, Lamb averaged 9.5 points and 8.3 rebounds per game last season, and will be looked upon to rebound and start the Cardinals’ break. Brandon Davis, a teammate of Lamb’s at Southwest Christian Junior College, led the Cardinals with 55 3-point makes in 2010-11. Davis averaged 8.2 points per game in just 17 minutes of playing time per game. Rounding out the Cardinals’ backcourt are junior Donley Minor and sophomore Tre Lynch. Minor was second on the team with 37 3-point makes a year ago, averaging 5.6 points per game. Lynch played 10 games as a true freshman, but is strong at both ends of the floor. Lamar’s frontcourt will be manned by seven versatile big men, four returnees and three newcomers. Charlie Harper, who returns for his fourth season, is the most experienced of the group. Harper missed six games due to injury in 2010-11, but still managed 7.4 points and 5.6 rebounds per game. Junior Stan Brown garnered 16 starts for Lamar last season, averaging 3.8 points and 3.3 rebounds per game. Brown has enough range on his jump shot to be a matchup problem for opposing big men. Senior Vincenzo Nelson and redshirt sophomore Osas Ebomwonyi are the other two returnees to the Cardinals’ frontcourt. Nelson battled knee injuries last year, but when healthy is a solid scorer and rebounder. Mostly a defensive threat, Ebomwonyi has added size and strength each season at Lamar and should be a real factor this season. Newcomers Nikko Acosta, Rhon Mitchell and Sebastian Norman will also vie for time at the forward positions. Acosta adds good size at 6-foot-7 and 235 pounds. Norman has played in 85 international games for his native Sweden and helped his team to a ninth place showing at the 2011 European Championships in the Men’s Under-20 division. Norman is good down on the blocks, but also has shooting range beyond the 3-point line. Mitchell averaged 17.0 points and 8.0 rebounds as a senior at Inglewood (Calif.) High School in helping the Sentinels to a 26-8 overall record.

SEASON OUTLOOK Patrick Richard, a returning all-conference selection, will have to shoulder the brunt of the load this season as McNeese State’s Cowboys attempt to defend the Southland Conference title that they won a year ago. He is the only starter returning from a team that posted a 21-12 record and played in the postseason NIT. Two of the keys to last year’s gallop – sharp shooting Diego Kapelan and talented rebounder P. J. Alawoya – are gone along with point guard C. J. Collins, a three year starter. Dave Simmons, now in his sixth campaign as the Cowboy head coach, earned league coach of the year honors last season and feels that his team has the personnel to make another title run. Richard, who can also play the guard post, will have to lead the way. He was the team’s top scorer last year with a 16.1 mark and he ranked second in most other categories including 6.4 rebounds and 2.5 assists per game. The loss of players (five seniors) was great but there are some good prospects in the wings. Daniel Richard started 13 games last year and is probably the most improved player on the team. He goes in with a 3.7 scoring and a 2.5 rebounding average. Dontae Cannon is expected to move into the starting role at the point and he showed signs of promise a year ago, especially when he hit a game winning field goal against Nicholls State. He had a 3.8 scoring average last season. Two big pluses are expected to be Rudy Turner and Will Brown, who each sat out last season.

Turner is a transfer from Louisiana-Monroe, where he was a three-year starter. He averaged 8.8 points and 5.5 rebounds per game his last season with the Warhawks, also blocking a team-high 43 shots. Brown is an athletic inside performer who can also go outside for the shot. He transferred in from New Mexico where he played two seasons, averaging 4.2 points and 3.6 rebounds his final year. Other returning letter winners the Cowboys have are Brandon Regis, who can play three different positions; Adrian Fields, who had five points and four rebounds in 13 minutes of play in one game; Jeremie Mitchell, who scored a career-high 20 points in one game last season; Mari Konate, who made 11 of the 12 free throws he attempted last season; and Tyson Queen, who knocked down two free throws to cement the victory against Louisiana-Lafayette last year.

A year ago, the Cowboys posted one of the best home records in school history, winning its first 14 games and finishing at 15-2. This year one of the home games will be a ESPN BracketBuster contest. The road schedule is a tough one with outings against Auburn, California, UTEP and New Mexico State.

Sr., 6-4, 208 Forward Carencro, La. Carencro High School

Head Coach Louisiana Tech, 1981 Sixth Year Record at MCN: 70-83 Career Record: 97-113 (8th Yr.) Dave Simmons returned McNeese State to Southland Conference royalty last season, leading his team to the league title, its first since the early part of the last decade. The 20-win season his Cowboys produced was also the first for the school in nine years and the 15-2 home record was one of the very best. Now, he enters his sixth season with the goal of defending the league title. His coaching effort the past year earned him the Southland Conference Coach of the Year honors. He was also named the district coach of the year by the National Association of Basketball Coaches. He’s now 70-83 in five seasons with the Cowboys. He was an assistant coach at Louisiana Tech when the team went to the NIT Final Four and made two NCAA appearances. He was an assistant at Delta State when it won 24 games and appeared in the Division II Final Four and he was an assistant at Northwestern State when the Demons won back-to-back league crowns, participated in the NCAA and gave the Southland a first-round NCAA victory for the first time since the 1980s. During a 28-year career Simmons has coached more than 20 players who have gone on to play in the professional ranks including Karl Malone. Simmons is a member of the Louisiana Basketball Hall of Fame, having been inducted for his playing career at Louisiana Tech and he is one of the few current collegiate head coaches in the nation who scored more than 1,500 points during their playing careers.

SEASON OUTLOOK Coming into the 2011-12 basketball season, Nicholls State will look to replace its two strongest offensive pieces: first-team all-conference selection Anatoly Bose to graduation and Fred Hunter to a knee injury that will keep him sidelined for most of the season. But with an influx of youth and athleticism, the Colonels will look to make its fourth consecutive postseason appearance beginning with Sam McBeath, a forward from Sydney, Australia. Named one of the five best players in New South Wales in 2009, McBeath’s frame and size will make it hard for defenders to get a grasp on his game, having both speed and finesse in his arsenal. A local product of nearby Houma, La., Trevon Lewis will also be another key component of the Colonel lineup. Lewis, an all-state player and region MVP in 2010 at Ellender High School, averaged 24 points and 12 rebounds as a senior for the Patriots and was a nominee for the McDonald’s All-American game. Looking to make an impact right away is junior college transfer Pedro Maciel, who spent the last year at Pearl River Community College. The Sao Paulo, Brazil, native, will be the one to run the offense. An attacking guard with a knack for defense, he gives Nicholls three new pieces that will infuse new life into the program. Overall, the Colonels will have four players coming back this year, including redshirt senior Ben Martin. Martin was fourth on the team in 3-pointers made with 34 on the year, averaging 4.5 points and 2.3 rebounds-per-game. He was second on the team in steals and was a 75-percent shooter from the free-throw line.

The non-conference schedule for the Colonels feature powers from the Atlantic Coast, Big 12 and Southeastern conferences, beginning with Nicholls’ regular-season opener against LSU Nov. 12, one year removed from beating the Tigers for the first time in school history.

In all the Colonels will have 11 home games in Stopher Gym in Thibodaux, with one game being held in the Houma-Terrebonne Civic Center against the Loyola Wolfpack. Non-conference games against UL-Monroe and Dillard also highlight the pre-conference schedule. One game to highlight on the schedule this year is the annual ESPN BracketBusters game which will feature Nicholls against a still-to be determined opponent Feb. 17-19. Ben Martin

Head Coach Southeastern Louisiana, 1991 Eighth Year Record at NICH: 78-123 Career Record: 78-123 (8th Yr.) J.P. Piper enters his eighth season at the helm of the Colonels, having amassed a 78-126 overall record through seven seasons. In 2010-11, Piper guided the Colonels to their fourth consecutive double-digit win total and third consecutive appearance in the Southland tournament. It’s the third time in Colonel history that the team has made at least three consecutive appearances in the tournament. Under the direction of Piper and his coaching staff, former Colonel guard/forward Anatoly Bose finished ninth in the nation, averaging 22.1 points per game en route to being named the Louisiana Basketball Player of the Year, a first-team all-conference and NABC first-team all-district pick. Bose finished his career as the leading scorer in Nicholls history racking up 2,051 points. Before being named head coach at Nicholls in 2004, Piper served two seasons as the top assistant for the Colonels (2002-04) under the direction of head coach Ricky Blanton. Prior to joining the college ranks, he held the position of head basketball coach at The Dunham School where he guided the Tigers to a Class A State Championship in 1997-98 and the Class A State Runner-Up spot in 1998-99. Piper was named Class A Coach of the Year in 1999 and was selected as head coach of the Louisiana High School Athletic Association (LHSAA) East All-Star Team. Piper’s leadership was evident off the court as he served as principal of The Dunham School for three years and President of the Louisiana High School Basketball Coach’s Association for two years.

Northwestern State Coaching History

SEASON OUTLOOK Depth and quickness in basketball often adds up to an annoying defensive presence. Those are certainly characteristics of the 2011-12 Northwestern State basketball team. Add one of the most dynamic shot blockers in college basketball history, senior center William Mosley, and 13th-year Demons coach Mike McConathy believes this year’s squad will be converting swats and steals into offensive opportunities at an alarming rate to opponents. Northwestern State went 18-14 last year, including a 10-6 second-place finish in the Southland Conference. The Demons led the nation in blocked shots as a team (7.0) as Mosley won the NCAA individual crown with 4.9 rejections per game. Northwestern also contended for the national steals title, leading the NCAA during most of non-conference play despite a typically rugged out-of-conference schedule, and wound up ninth nationally with a 9.2 average. This year the Demons will have seven games against 2011 postseason teams, including six NCAA tournament entries, perhaps adding another in the Sears BracketBusters matchup to be set in midseason. The key question facing McConathy: who will step up to fill the void created by the departure of 2010-11 seniors Will Pratt and Devon Baker, last year’s top two scorers who combined for 33 of Northwestern’s 77 points per game. Senior guard Louis Ellis, the top returning scorer at 8.8 ppg, Mosley (7.9 ppg), juniors Shamir Davis (6.7 ppg, 2.7 apg) and James Hulbin (5.8 ppg, 4.6 rpg), and newcomers Demetrice Jacobs and Gary Roberson will be expected to do so. Also potential instant help: prep signees Jalan West and Marvin Frazier led their teams to Louisiana state titles.

Mosley will also graduate during the season, following another trademark of the McConathy era. The Demons had a perfect 1,000 APR for 2009-10 in NCAA’s latest report issued in May. The addition of the 6-9 Frazier, and the return of players who had 90 percent of Northwestern’s blocks last season, forecasts a formidable front line.

Roberson averaged 11.5 points and 4.3 rebounds last season while serving as team captain and helping Jacksonville (Texas) Community College to a school-record 24 wins. Jacobs, a native of New York, N.Y., averaged 14.5 points and 4.2 rebounds while shooting 57 percent from the field including 49 percent on 3-pointers for a Missouri State-West Plains team that was ranked No. 1 in the country in junior college basketball.

HISTORY & RECORDS

Junior college transfers Roberson, a local product of Natchitoches Central High School, and Jacobs should help perimeter production.

2010-11 REVIEW

The Demons will be strong in the middle, and not simply because of Mosley. He led the nation in blocks (156, 4.9 pg) last year, and if he equals last year’s blocks, he will finish fourth in NCAA history in career blocks, beginning the season with 330, second all-time in the Southland. He averaged 7.9 ppg, 8.8 rebounds pg (third in the Southland) and shot a league best 63.4 percent last year.

NORTHWESTERN STATE DEMONS MIKE McCONATHY

WILLIAM MOSLEY #42 Sr., 6-7, 200 Center Shreveport, La. Huntington High School

Head Coach Louisiana Tech, 1977 13th Year Record at NSU: 184-188 Career Record: 536-333 (29th Yr.) Now in the 13th season under Coach Mike McConathy’s leadership, Northwestern State has evolved in his tenure from being nearly an afterthought in the historic city of Natchitoches to providing the sports heartbeat of northwest Louisiana in February and March. McConathy’s Demons have been to the Big Dance twice (2001 and 2006), winning an NCAA tournament game each time, and have been to the Southland Conference tournament championship game six times in his 12 seasons. Under McConathy, despite annually playing one of the nation’s toughest non-conference schedules, Northwestern has posted six winning seasons while graduating more than 80 percent of his players. His Demons captured the hearts of the nation in March 2006 with their appearance in the NCAA Tournament. Northwestern became the “Cinderella team” in the first-round of the tournament by beating regional third-seed Iowa, 64-63, on a last-second basket that completed a run from a 54-37 deficit with eight minutes to play. Iowa was ranked 15th in the country and had just won the Big Ten Conference tournament. Coach McConathy’s career collegiate coaching record in 27 seasons is 536-347, including 184 wins with the Demons. Attendance records have been shattered at Prather Coliseum, with the overall average per game attendance having almost doubled from prior to his arrival.

Sam Houston State Coaching History

Returning only three lettermen from last year’s 18-13 squad that earned Sam Houston State’s third consecutive Southland Conference West Division title and made the program’s ninth consecutive league postseason tournament appearance, second-year coach Jason Hooten and his staff definitely will be putting a new group of Bearkats on the floor in 2011-12. Sam Houston returns only 10.5 of its 69.7 points the team averaged in 2010-11 as the Bearkats compiled a 10-6 league mark and reached the semifinals of the Southland Conference tournament. Antuan Bootle is the only returning starter. Bootle became a force inside for the Bearkats as a junior, finishing the year ranked second in rebounding for the Bearkats and No. 13 in the Southland. Two key reserves from the squad also return, including forward Marcus James, who averaged 4.5 points per game as a transfer from Seward County Community College, and post Aaron Thompson, who averaged 8.1 minutes per contest as a reserve. Eight transfers will provide the Bearkats with much needed immediate experience. Konner Tucker red-shirted last year after averaging 5.2 minutes per game for Wake Forest. During his freshman season at Lon Morris Junior College, Tucker averaged 16.2 points per game. Darius Gatson was a two-time all-conference selection at Trinity Valley Junior College, leading the Cardinals to records of 23-9 and 25-6. Gatson averaged 11.9 points and 6.4 assists as a sophomore. Steven Werner helped lead McLennan Community College to a 28-5 record and a North Texas Junior College Conference runner-up finish last year. Guard Kevin Schaffartzik earned all-Western Junior College Athletic Association after leading Odessa College to records of 23-8 and 24-8. Forward Joshua Gibbs is a versatile athlete who can play several positions. He averaged 14.5 points and 6.2 rebounds in helping Butler County Community College to a 29-7 record and an appearance in the NJCAA national tournament. Guard Cameron Sadler joins the Bearkats as a transfer from Columbia College. Erik Williams, a transfer from Marquette will red-shirt this season and have two seasons to play for the Bearkats in 2013 and 2014. Aaron Harwell, a sophomore transfer from Centenary, will contribute as a point guard for the Bearkats after averaging 5.3 points and 2.1 assists for the Gents last year.

SEASON OUTLOOK Despite losing key contributors to graduation, Southeastern Louisiana should be an experienced group that possesses better size, depth and athleticism. Five letterwinners, including Trent Hutchin, the team’s leading scorer and an All-Southland Conference performer, are gone but seventh-year coach Jim Yarbrough replenished his roster with a talented group of newcomers highlighted by a pair of experienced transfers from Southeastern Conference schools. Coupled with a pair of talented junior college transfers and a solid group of six returning letterwinners, the Lions will again be expected to contend for the Southland Conference title. “I’m excited about this team,” Yarbrough said. “We have greater size, more length and more depth. There are a number of questions that will get answered at some point early in the season and that will determine what kind of team we can become and evolve in.” Paced by three-year letterwinners Brandon Fortenberry and DeShawn Patterson, Yarbrough has the added benefit of having two coaches on the floor as the senior duo bring a combined 170 games and 129 starts between them in the backcourt. With the continued progression of forward Roosevelt Johnson, and sophomores Jeremy Campbell, Antonnio Benton and Michael Harrel, Southeastern should be more experienced in key areas on the floor. The biggest addition to the 2011-12 squad starts with 6-foot-8, 265-pound center Elgin Bailey, who returns to his native state after three seasons at Mississippi State. Bailey, who joined the team after the Fall 2010 semester, will bring a bigger post presence and solid experience of playing in the rugged Southeastern Conference. The Lions also added LSU transfer Daron Populist, who played two years as a walkon, to the squad and will have the benefit of having the guard in the lineup immediately.

2010-11 REVIEW

“Elgin was probably not a No. 1 option at Mississippi State, but for us, we’ll put him front and center and make him feel very much a part of what we do and I think that will help him,” Yarbrough said. “He’s had a lot of experiences in his career, he’s played in an SEC Championship game and played in a lot of big games in the SEC. (Junior guard) Daron Populist will bring in a lot of experience from his two years at LSU. Early on, his mindset and his understanding of the game will free up Brandon Fortenberry to do more scoring.”

Southeastern Louisiana Southland Conference History

Junior college transfers Todd Nelson and Jan Petrovcic both bring different resumes to the roster, but both are considered solid shooters who will help in the Lions’ perimeter game.

DeShawn Patterson

“I want us to fundamentally sound, really good defensively, understand how to move the ball and share it and find our scoring and our rhythm from the inside out as we go.”

HISTORY & RECORDS

“They both shoot the ball very well and they are both good skill guys and I think they’re going to make very good contributions to our ballclub,” Yarbrough said. “The question is – these parts are kind of new to each other. Can we come together as a team? We have great length, great depth and the challenge for our coaching staff is to make sure they’re very good defensively, that they play hard and tough all the time, offensively we give them a body of things that they can handle and be good at, and then we’ll add some more options and wrinkles as the aseason goes on.

SOUTHEASTERN LOUISIANA LIONS JIM YARBROUGH

BRANDON FORTENBERRY #5 Sr., 6-1, 180 Guard Picayune, Miss. Picayune Memorial High School

Head Coach Florida St., 1987 Seventh Year Record at SLU: 96-82 Career Record: 193-124 (12th Yr.) In six seasons as head coach at Southeastern Louisiana, Jim Yarbrough has helped make Southeastern not just one of the top programs in the Southland Conference, but one of the top Division I programs in the state of Louisiana. Yarbrough has kept the Lions on a consistent course during his tenure, producing winning campaigns in five of his six years and advancing to the Southland Conference tournament in each season. Since the 2003-04 season, Southeastern has been a model of consistency among Division I programs in the state of Louisiana winning 140 games (second behind LSU) and producing more winning seasons (seven) than any other school. Replacing Southeastern graduate Billy Kennedy in May 2005, Yarbrough has done an excellent job of keeping the program very competitive. His 96 wins in Hammond are the third-most in school history and his .527 winning percentage is the best for a program that was looking for a solid foundation. Prior to his arrival at Southeastern, Yabrough spent five seasons as the head coach at Division II Valdosta State, where he posted an impressive 97-42 record. In 10 seasons as a head coach, Yarbrough has notched a 193-124 record. At Valdosta, Yarbrough’s 2001-02 squad posted a 24-8 record and reached the NCAA tournament, advancing to the Sweet 16. He was named the South Region Coach of the Year and was a finalist for National Division II Coach of the Year. He followed that with 19-7 record before posting a 25-4 mark in 2003-04 and helping the Blazers to a No. 3 ranking in the final Division II polls.

SEASON OUTLOOK With a first-team all-conference center anchoring the middle, and having no less than 18 wins in each of the last four seasons, Danny Kaspar’s Lumberjacks have reason to be optimistic about the upcoming 2011-12 season, despite returning just four players from last season’s roster. Last year the Lumberjacks led the nation in scoring defense (56.7 ppg) and got 13.3 points per game from starting big man Jereal Scott, a first-team all-conference selection who set a school record for field-goal percentage by hitting 60 percent of his shots; however, SFA will have to replace guard Eddie Williams, one of its key pieces during the last four years. Williams helped lead SFA to a 91-34 record (.728) over the past three seasons and win the program’s first two conference championships, and leaves behind a backcourt with only three years of combined experience at the Division I level. Darius Gardner and Antonio Bostic headline that group after each seeing significant playing time. Gardner assumed the starting point guard role for the majority of league play as a true freshman after senior Denzel Barnes was sidelined with an injury and averaged 4.5 points and 2.7 assists per contest, but will be asked to carry a heavier load this year as a sophomore, as will Bostic, who made 15 starts and became more of a scoring threat as the year went on. Lefty guard Desmond Haymon is also back and brings instant offense to the floor. He only played 13 games as a true freshman, averaging just 2.3 points per game; however, he pumped up that average to 7.8 per game in his final four before going down with an injury of his own that kept him out the remainder of the year.

Meanwhile, King and Bright were also junior college all-league players for their respective squads. King – a native of Panama – averaged a double-double at East Mississippi CC as a sophomore and ranked in the nation’s top 15 in rebounding with his 10.4 per-game average, while Bright is the third player from Howard since 2007 to sign on with the Lumberjacks. He averaged 10 points and 5.3 rebounds for the Hawks, one year after being there when Howard claimed the 2010 Junior College national title.

Four freshmen round out the order with guard Thomas Walkup and forward Jacob Parker possibly in line to see playing time in their first season. Walkup, the brother of former Texas A&M forward Nathan Walkup, averaged nearly 26 points per game as a senior at Deer Park High School while Parker was an all-state selection himself as a senior for Bixby High School in Oklahoma.

HISTORY & RECORDS

SFA should also get help in the backcourt from shooting guard Kevin Broussard (Coffeyville CC) and point guard Hal Bateman (Des Moines Area CC). Broussard averaged 14 points per game in his two years at Coffeyville, leading his team to a 33-5 record last season, while Bateman averaged 10 points and nearly six assists as a sophomore.

2010-11 REVIEW

The Lumberjacks will also add eight new players this season and could boast a roster that is as deep as Kaspar has had in his tenure. Big men Taylor Smith and Jonathan King are each junior college transfers who stand to see immediate court time on the front line, as should forward Joe Bright. Smith was a two-time all-Region XIV selection at McClennan Community College, earning the league’s award as top defensive player both seasons in Waco.

Head Coach North Texas, 1978 12th Year Record at SFA: 199-124 Career Record: 418-176 (21st Yr.) Danny Kaspar has already cemented himself as the most successful head coach in the Division I era of Lumberjack basketball. In 2011-12, his Lumberjacks will try to take the next step toward becoming the consistent power in the Southland Conference. If the Lumberjacks can grab a conference title, it would mark the third time in the last five seasons for SFA to win at least a share of the league crown. The Lumberjacks are coming off an 18-11 season in 2010-11 after putting together three consecutive 20-win seasons. Kaspar’s SFA squad also showed why it is one of the top defenses in the nation, surrendering just 56.7 points per game, the lowest mark in the country. The Lumberjacks also saw Jereal Scott earn first team all-Southland Conference honors. Kaspar will enter the 2011-12 season needing just one win to pick up the 200th victory of his SFA coaching career. Before becoming the head coach at Stephen F. Austin, Kaspar spent nine season as the head coach at the University of the Incarnate Word. In his tenure, Incarnate Word posted an overall record of 219 wins against only 52 losses. That 219-52 mark was the best record for any fouryear institution in Texas for the decade of the 1990s. Prior to becoming a head coach, Kaspar served as an assistant for some of the legends of college basketball coaching. Not only did he work for Harry Miller for three years at SFA, but Kaspar also worked on the staffs of Billy Tubbs, Gene Iba and Dr. Gerald Stockton. He served as an assistant coach at SFA from 1983-86.

UT Arlington Coaching History

SEASON OUTLOOK Inexperience led to inconsistency for UT Arlington during the 2010-11 season. Much of last year’s team returns, but do not look for the same group. For starters, last year’s team – the second youngest in the NCAA – now has numerous players with an additional year of collegiate experience. Second, the Mavericks welcome in several key newcomers, headlined by Kevin Butler, who sat out the 2010-11 season after transferring from TCU. Then there is the style of play. UT Arlington coach Scott Cross focused much of the offseason on largely vacating the slower, more methodical half-court set employed by the team a year ago. In its place comes a faster, transition-oriented pace. Senior LaMarcus Reed returns as the team’s leading scorer after averaging 12.4 points per game. Cross said Reed will benefit not only from the faster speed but also from the added muscle he added during the offseason. Last year’s Southland Conference Newcomer of the Year, Bo Ingram, will be called upon again this year to mix his inside and outside game effectively. Ingram, Cross said, has the purest 3-point shot on the team while also possessing the strength and toughness to be a force around the basket. Ingram finished as the team’s leading scorer in Southland play last year and was the leading rebounder. Look for Butler to have an immediate impact as well, regardless of where he lines up on the court. The transfer from TCU, like Ingram, is an inside-outside presence capable of finishing under the basket as well as stepping back and knocking down a 3-pointer. Cross said he could start at either forward spot and can play center when the Mavs decide to go with a smaller lineup. With the increase in tempo, the emphasis on point-guard play will take on a new look this year. This season the Mavericks will feature three at the position in returnees Shaquille White-Miller and Cameron Catlett plus newcomer Jorge Redmon, a junior-college transfer from Lon Morris College. Regardless of offensive game plan in a given game, Cross wants his team’s calling card to be hard-nosed man-to-man defense. Redmon is likely to come off the bench for Cross, but that does not mean he has a lesser role. Cross wants Redmon to be one of his top scorers and hopes bringing the junior-college transfer off the bench will force him to be more aggressive when he enters the game. Catlett is capable of creating his own shot and offense off the dribble. An added element to his game will be his outside shooting after attempting just 12 3-pointers a year ago. Cross said Catlett might have been one of the players most positively influenced by the pickup in speed. The center position will again be manned by Jordan Reves and Brandon Edwards. Reves, a junior, had his best year as a sophomore and is one of the best team defenders on the squad while Edwards has the potential to be more of a factor this year. One thing Cross knows heading into his sixth year is that his team is not lacking for depth. He intends to play as many as 10 players in rotation. Forward Bradley Gay will be a part of that rotation after averaging 7.3 points per game last year. Gay is a player who does a little bit of everything well and even started at the end of the season. Center Stuart Lagerson will also compete to be part of the rotation after playing sparingly as a freshman last season. Junior college transfers Bojan Mihajlovic and Karol Gruszecki should also make immediate impacts on the program. Mihajlovic is a scrapper under the boards who can come away with the tough points while Gruszecki has a smooth jump shot. Both players were among the top junior college scorers in the nation last year.

Sr., 6-5, 200 Forward Dallas, Texas Skyline High School

Head Coach UT Arlington, 1998 Sixth Year Record at UTA: 79-73 Career Record: 79-73 (6th Yr.) During his first five seasons at UT Arlington, Scott Cross has guided the Mavericks to the school’s only appearance in the NCAA tournament, won a conference tournament, coached a player who earned All-American honors and recorded 50 wins faster than any other coach in school history. Cross led his team to the 2008 NCAA Tournament marking the first time in school history the Mavericks made an appearance in the “Big Dance.” That appearance came just a week after his team entered the Southland Conference tournament as the No. 7 seed but came away with the conference title. Cross entered the 2010-11 season with the second-youngest team in the nation. He kept that young group of players in the hunt for a postseason conference berth until the final game of the regular season. Bo Ingram was named the Southland Conference’s Newcomer of the Year. Cross coached Marquez Haynes, the conference player of the year in 2009-10. Haynes became just the second player in school history to be so honored after finishing third in the nation in scoring at 22.6 points per game. Cross was named the head coach of his alma mater on April 21, 2006 after serving as an assistant coach for the previous eight seasons. A three-year letter winner at UT Arlington from 1995-98, Cross appeared in 82 games for UTA, including 58 in the starting lineup. As a senior, Cross averaged 11.9 points, 3.7 rebounds and 3.4 assists per game, while converting a team-high 41.5 percent of his three-point shots, second best in the Southland Conference.

HISTORY & RECORDS

Coming off arguably the program’s best season in two decades, excitement surrounding UTSA basketball is at an all-time high. With 12 letterwinners, including four starters, back from a squad that posted the first 20-win campaign in 19 years, won the Southland Conference tournament and advanced to the second round of the NCAA tournament, coach Brooks Thompson has plenty of reasons to be excited about the prospects of the 2011-12 season. The 2010-11 Roadrunners registered a 20-14 record and finished tied for third in the Southland Conference’s West Division with a 9-7 mark. UTSA got off to a school-record 4-1 start and finished the campaign by winning six consecutive elimination games before falling to top-ranked Ohio State in the second round of the NCAA tournament. Included in that stretch run was a historic 70-61 victory against Alabama State at the inaugural NCAA First Four in Dayton, Ohio, which marked the first NCAA postseason win by any sport in school history, and a string of upsets against the top three seeds in the Southland tournament, which led to the program’s first league crown since 2004. UTSA welcomes back 74 percent of its scoring and 79 percent of its rebounding from last year’s squad. A pair of former Southland freshmen of the year in junior guard Melvin Johnson III and sophomore forward Jeromie Hill headline the list of returnees. Johnson emerged as a threat to score from anywhere on the floor in his sophomore campaign, averaging 14.9 points on the strength of a team-high 80 3-pointers and he also shot 85.9 percent (85-for-99) at the free-throw line en route to honorable mention all-conference accolades. He topped the 20-point barrier eight times, including a career-high 29 in the historic win against Alabama State, 25 of which was scored in the first half. Meanwhile, Hill provided an immediate impact in his debut season, posting 13.4 points and a team-high 6.6 rebounds per contest. The Cairns, Australia, native registered four double-doubles, including a pair in his first two games, and poured in 25 points in two of the three Southland tournament matchups en route to all-tournament honors. The other two starters both played pivotal roles in their first seasons with the Roadrunners. Senior forward Stephen Franklin started all 34 games and averaged 6.5 points and 4.1 boards, while senior center Larry Wilkins contributed 3.6 points and 3.7 rebounds in his 34 contests (18 starts), including 6.6 and 7.0 during his final eight outings. Senior guard Sei Paye played in all 34 games with 17 starts and pitched in with 5.1 points per game on top of being one the team’s top perimeter defenders, while senior Alex Vouyoukas appeared in 27 contests, including starting the first 12 tilts of the season, and he posted 49 points, 46 boards and a team-high 16 blocks. Other returnees include senior forward/center Mike White, junior guard Kalif Bakare, sophomore forwards Igor Nujic and Tyler Wood and sophomore guards Jordan Sims and Ryan Whitehead. Thompson will have to fill a huge void left by the lone lost starter, Devin Gibson. Gibson capped a remarkable career with one of the best seasons ever recorded by a Roadrunner. He led the team in scoring (17.0 ppg), assists (5.4 apg) and steals (2.7 spg) and was second in rebounding (5.2 rpg). He was the only player in the country who averaged at least 16 points, five rebounds, five assists and 2.5 steals per game and was one of only two in the NCAA who posted two triple-doubles during the season. A trio of newcomers will look to help fill the void left by Gibson. Two-time NJCAA All-America point guard Michael Hale III averaged 17.8 points, 3.7 rebounds, 4.2 assists and a pair of steals per game at North Idaho College last season. Fellow JUCO transfer Kannon Burrage, a guard, scored a team-high 20.7 points per contest and also posted 5.2 rebounds, 2.2 assists and 1.2 steals en route to all-region accolades at Des Moines Area Community College last year. A.J. Price, a freshman guard, was a three-time all-district selection at Class 5A powerhouse The Colony.

UTSA ROADRUNNERS BROOKS THOMPSON

STEPHEN FRANKLIN #1 Sr., 6-6, 205 Forward Aurora, Colo. Central High School

Head Coach Oklahoma State, 1994 Sixth Year Record at UTSA: 78-77 Career Record: 133-91 (8th Yr.) Former NBA player and Oklahoma State star Brooks Thompson enters his sixth season as head coach of the UTSA men’s basketball program. In his five years in the Alamo City, UTSA has registered the school’s first-ever NCAA postseason victory in any sport, captured one league championship, made two conference tournament title game appearances and recorded the most successful three-year stretch (58 wins) in nearly two decades. Seven players have earned all-conference honors, three have been tabbed Southland Freshman of the Year and four have garnered all-academic honors. In 2010-11, Thompson guided UTSA to the Southland Conference tournament championship for the first time since 2004 and to the program’s fourth NCAA tournament appearance, where it registered a 70-61 First Four victory over Alabama State. That win gave UTSA its first 20-win season in 19 years. UTSA tied for third in the Southland West Division and fifth overall to qualify for its fourth consecutive Southland tournament, where it upset the top three seeds en route to the crown. Thompson came to UTSA from Arizona State, where he served as an assistant coach for two seasons. Prior to his stint at Arizona State, Thompson was head coach at Yavapai College, for two seasons where he compiled a 55-14. Thompson began his coaching career as an undergraduate assistant at Oklahoma State in 1998-99 and served as head coach at Metro Christian Academy in Tulsa, Okla., in 1999-2000. He then was an assistant coach for one season at Southeastern Louisiana in 2000-01.

HISTORY & RECORDS

Willis Wilson is the new coach at Texas A&M-Corpus Christi after spending 16 years as the head coach at Rice University and two as an assistant coach at Memphis. The widely respected college basketball veteran set a school record with his 219 wins at Rice. Wilson has surrounded himself with a very strong staff heading into the 2011-12 campaign. His first hire was associate head coach Marty Gross, who was Wilson’s right-hand man at Rice and most recently spent four years as an assistant with mid-major power Wichita State. Joining Gross on the coaching staff are Mark Dannhoff and K.T. Turner. Dannhoff, a 20-year veteran of college basketball, is the only carryover from the 2010-11 staff. Turner joins the Islanders after two years with Hutchinson (Kan.) Community College. Among the Islanders’ returning players is junior Terence Jones, who had a strong sophomore season. Jones led the Islanders with 80 assists and 51 three-pointers on the season, including 10 dimes in the final home game of the season. He is expected to play more at shooting guard in 2011-12 and is a leader both on and off the court. Also back in the backcourt is senior Chris Mast. Mast was a sparkplug off the bench a year ago, averaging 5.0 points and 2.4 rebounds last season. Sophomore Ted Wang is back in the frontcourt after playing sparingly in 2010-11. Sophomore walkon Kevin Lynch is also in the mix for playing time after sitting out last year due to NCAA transfer rules. The Islanders will depend heavily on newcomers in 2011-12. Leading the way are a pair of junior college transfers who will bring advanced maturity and physical makeup to help make an immediate impact. Myron Dempsey joins the Islander family after two years at Redlands Community College in Oklahoma. Dempsey led Redlands in blocks and rebounds last year. His rebounding is especially impressive on the offensive end and he should make an immediate impact for the Islanders in the frontcourt. After two years at Allen Community College, Jason Smith will bring his talents to the Coastal Bend. The scoring guard has a tremendous ability to get to the rim and create his own opportunities. He averaged 25 points per game as a sophomore, and will be a go-to player offensively right out of the gate. Five scholarship freshmen will also help the Islanders in the 2011-12 season. Hameed Ali was the last signing for the team, but he has impressive ability at both the point and shooting guard positions. Ali averaged 20 points, five rebounds and five assists in his senior season at San Leandro (Calif.) High School and was named Honorable Mention All-East Bay. The only pure point guard to sign with the Islanders is Johnathan Jordan, out of Houston’s Hightower High School. Jordan brings extreme athleticicism and explosiveness to the team right out of the box. Jake Kocher was the only player to sign with the Islanders during the November early signing period. The outstanding outside shooter finished his high school career as the all-time scoring leader in the city of Austin. While he needs work defensively and creating his own shot, his range is nearly limitless from downtown. The player with perhaps the biggest upside for the team is Nate Maxey, a forward/center who played at Westwind Prep last season. The long and athletic Maxey is a prolific shot blocker who can disrupt opposing offenses with his defensive ability. His prep school teammate, Jordan Didier, brings a lot of maturity to the Islanders as a freshman. The forward is a solid shooter, and will help the depth up front right away. He averaged 17 points and eight rebounds as a senior in high school. A pair of newcomers also will help the Islanders depth. Charlie Hurd joins the team as a junior after spending two years helping Division II Tarleton State to the NCAA tournament. He will have to sit out the season due to NCAA transfer rules. Freshman James King comes to the Island University after playing three years at Steele High School.

Head Coach Rice, 1982 First Year Record at TAMUCC: 0-0 Career Record: 219-246 (16th Yr.) Longtime Rice University head coach and 25-year veteran of college basketball Willis Wilson was hired to be the third head coach in Texas A&M-Corpus Christi history on March 25, 2011. Wilson spent 16 years at the helm of the Owls’ program, and is the winningest coach in the program’s history. In 16 years leading the Owls, Wilson posted a career record of 219-246, leading the team to three postseason appearances. Most recently, Wilson served two seasons as an assistant to Josh Pastner at Memphis. In two years, he saw the Tigers go 49-19 and advance to the postseason both years. In 2010-11, the Tigers went 25-9, won their fifth Conference USA Championship and a berth in the 2011 NCAA Tournament. In his first season for the Tigers, Wilson helped guide the Tigers to a 24-10 overall record and a National Invitation Tournament (NIT) berth. During his tenure at Rice, Wilson coached 17 all-conference picks, including 2007 Conference USA Player of the Year Morris Almond. Almond, a 2007 NBA Draft first round pick, and Michael Harris (2005) both earned All-America accolades. A 1982 Rice graduate, Wilson began his collegiate coaching career as an assistant at his alma mater in 1985-86. After a one-year stint as a head coach at Houston’s Strake Jesuit Prep, Wilson returned to Rice as an assistant from 1987-91. Prior to taking over the reins of the Rice program, Wilson spent the 1991-92 campaign as an assistant on Mike Montgomery’s staff at Stanford.

Texas State Coaching History

Texas State comes into the 2011-12 season trying to build on a season in which it tied for the Southland Conference West Division title. The Bobcats and coach Doug Davalos are known for their high-scoring offense, finishing the 2010-11 season ranked 15th in the nation in points per game. Davalos, who enters his sixth season, has led the Bobcats to an improved overall win percentage each of his five years. Texas State returns two starters from last season, along with four seniors that will lead the Bobcats. Senior guard John Bowman was the only Bobcat to start every game last year; tying a single-season school record. Bowman, who is known for his tough defense, will return to the floor for his senior campaign to pilot the team. In addition to Bowman in the frontcourt, the Bobcats will have senior guards Travis Jones and Eddie Rios; both capable of draining the 3. The duo registered 98 of Texas State’s 185 3-pointers last season to help the Bobcats average 78.3 points per game. Rios is the team’s top returning scorer; he averaged 9.0 points per game and had 31 steals. Jones, who averaged 7.5 points per game, led Texas State in 3-pointers made with 49. The Bobcats enter the new season as the fourth-ranked scoring offense team in the nation during the past five years. After losing the team’s top two scorers in big men Tony Bishop and Cameron Johnson, the Bobcats will need to fill the void under the basket. With eight forwards on its roster, the key for Texas State is to find two solid guys that can step up. Senior forward Brooks Ybarra had an impressive junior year as the season went on, and the Bobcats will look to see him improve in 2011-12. Junior Matt Staff and sophomore Reid Koenen also return to provide the Bobcats the depth they need down low. Texas State has eight newcomers on its roster; including redshirt freshmen forwards Nick Hinton and Basil Brown, who both practiced with the Bobcats all last season. Joining the pair will be junior college transfers, Vonn Jones and Gordon Ball. Both Jones and Ball helped guide Lamar State-PA to the 2011 NJCAA Region XIV Championship title; where Jones was named the Most Valuable Player.

Head Coach Houston, 1994 Sixth Year Record at TXST: 67-84 Career Record: 139-119 (10th Yr.) Doug Davalos is entering his sixth season at Texas State as the seventh-winningest coach in school history with 67 career wins. Davalos and his staff have posted five consecutive years with an improved overall and conference record. Davalos’ 2010-11 squad posted a 16-16 (.500) overall record, while going 10-6 in conference play to earn a share of the Southland’s West Division title and finish with the 15th best scoring offense in the nation. Texas State tied for second place in the league and advanced to the semifinals of the conference tournament for the first time since 2003. The Bobcats recorded 11 victories in Strahan Coliseum, which marked the third consecutive year the Bobcats have posted double digit victories in home games for the first time since 1993-94. The Bobcats enter the 2011-12 season on a 10-game home win streak dating back to Dec. 31, 2010. Texas State is one of 21 Division I schools with a current home win streak of 10 games or more. Davalos came to Texas State after he turned Sul Ross State into a perennial winner during his four seasons. Prior to his stint at Sul Ross State, Davalos was an assistant for two years at Eastern New Mexico University. He got his coaching start as a student assistant coach at the University of Houston and was a graduate assistant coach at Auburn-Montgomery before serving as the head coach at Fort Stockton (Texas) High School for four years. Davalos is the son of Texas State All-America point guard Rudy Davalos, who captained the 1960 Texas State team to an NAIA national championship.
