tech women’s basketball


After the final buzzer sounded the end of last season, the Golden Eagles weren’t aware of the major changes that would be made throughout the course of the offseason. One thing that remained the same was the drive to be the best.   Jim Davis was named coach of the 2012-13 Golden Eagles in July and since that moment, Davis was ready to start the 2012-13 campaign. Davis wasted little time in regrouping and preparing for the upcoming season. And it has been difficult for him to contain his excitement.   As last season progressed, the Golden Eagles had flashes of dominance from guard Jala Harris, and forward Molly Heady transformed from a role player to a go-to star. As Davis assessed what he inherited from one of the most storied programs in NCAA history, he found himself with a group of seniors that had been to the OVC Tournament Championship game the past two years, strong underclassman and a talented freshman class coming in as well as a former transfer

sharp-shooter, Lashay Davis.   With outstanding facilities in place, a new but wellrounded coaching staff and the most complete and talented roster Tech has seen in a few years at Tech, Davis was ready to embark on a breakthrough season, but he knew one thing was missing.   While acknowleding his players’ dedication in past years, Davis knew this group had the potential go give more. He wanted them to understand that it is a privilege to play for Tennessee Tech University, so in honor of his new start, he urged his players to strengthen their commitment in the fall offseason and take their first semester more seriously than ever before.   Davis’ plan was clear, and the players returned to the court more focused and excited than ever before. “The first couple of weeks will tell a new coaching staff a lot about the grit our girls have,” Davis said. “You have a group of seniors and a group of juniors that are anxious to play as their opportunities are starting to dwindle. Everybody has a fresh set of eyes starAllison ing them down.”

Price

The 2012-13 season is the time for players like Kellie Cook, Kylie Cook, Katherine Barker, Davis, Harris and Heady. Their work ethic has trickled down to the rest of the team and the underclassman are itching for their own breakout season.

increased optimisim this season, it’s the massive threat on the perimeter.   Despite losing fan favorite Taccarra Hayes to graduation, Tech’s biggest strength this season should be the perimeter play of its guards. The Golden Eagles are deeper, more talented and more experienced at the guard position than years prior.   It starts with the trio of Jala Harris, Kellie Cook and Lashay Davis. Each brings a different game to the floor, but all three have the capability of putting up big numbers any given night.   Harris, who returns as the Golden Eagles starting point guard, is the floor general behind the offenisve attack. At 5-foot-6, Harris provides lightning-quick speed an uncanny ability to create shots for herself and her teammates. In her junior season, a transfer from the University of Alabama-Birmingham, Harris could not take the court as a Golden Eagle in the first semester of the season. However, the impact she made once hitting the court, was immediate. Harris teamed up with Hayes for a one-two punch that most teams couldn’t compete with. She dished out 2.6 assists per game, but more importantly, she learned how to take control of the game and run the team.   One of Harris’s primary passing mates on the

outside is the sharpshooting Kellie Cook. Although she’s struggled to find consistency, she possesses a deadly accurate threepoint shot in spurts of every contest. In 24 games, she knocked down 21 threes. Although a chunk of her 4.8 points per game came from the outside, Cook developed an all-around game in her junior season.   But the chief weapon in Tech’s perimeter arsenal is the dynamic Davis. At 5-foot-6, Davis boasts versatility and big-play ability. She has the capability of playing all three guard positions and joins the Golden Eagles from Western Kentucky after taking a year off.   At Western Kentucky, Davis eclipsed the double digit mark 12 times, including a career-high 20 points against Florida Atlantic.   Also looking to make a splash is Diamond Henderson. Henderson, a red-shirt sophomore, played in all 22 games last season, and after a season ending injury her freshman season, Henderson finally got her footing toward the end of the 201112 season.   If the newcomers are “there”, Tech could have the some of the best collection of guards in the OVC. The Golden Eagles welcome four new guards - one transfer and three freshman - all of whom Davis expects to contribute in the practice gym immedi-

Golden Eagles Play New OVC Format   This season, with the addition of Belmont University to the conference, the OVC will break down into two regions, expanding tournament play to the top eight teams (from six in previous years). The winners of each division receives automatic berths into the conference championship, while the seeding will be determined by winning percentage.   Tech will play in the East Division along with Belmont, Eastern Kentucky, Jacksonville State, Morehead State and Tennessee State. The West Division includes Austin Peay, Eastern Illinois, Murray State, Southeast Missouri, SIUE and UT Martin.

OUTLOOK

New Faces on the Bench:   Joining Davis is a brand new staff. Erin Batth, Davis’ former player at Clemson, joins him yet again. Batth has several years of coaching experience, along with WNBA and international play. Former Golden Eagle sharp shooter, Allison Clark also joins Davis’ staff. Clark has been the assistant coach at Middle Tennessee for the past few years. Rounding out the staff is Bart Walker. Walker coached at the JUCO level and found great success leading his team to several championships.

Backcourt   The Golden Eagles lack depth and height, but Davis believes the frontcourt will be strong if it can continue to play defense and rebound the ball.   Tech might be limited depth-wise in the paint, but it’s hard to be overly concerned when you have Molly Heady and 6-2 center T’Keyah Williams roaming the low block.   Williams has shown flashes of outright dominance at times. As a freshman, Williams averaged 6.2 points per game, and shot an impressive .494 clip. If Williams can become more consistent, she has the ability to become one of the leagues best players.   But she’ll need help down low. Heady, averaged 6.9 points per game. The return of Heady will certainly be important, both from a depth standpoint, as well as an experience factor.   Three freshman, Mariah Dean, Quira Demery and Tia Nicholson will also be relied upon to step up to the plate and make a big impact early.

15 Home Games Highlight 2012-13 Schedule   The Golden Eagles have 15 regular-season home games in the Hooper-Eblen Center this year, including eight against OVC opponents.

UT Martin also comes to the “Temple of Doom” in mid January for a rematch of the 2012 OVC Tournament Championship game.

Schedule   Tech is sheduled to face several top teams from primetime conferences such as the SEC, the Big East and the Pac 12. The Golden Eagles will take on perennial titans like Vanderbilt, UCLA and St. John’s. Tech also has one of the most storied women’s basketball programs in NCAA history and is ready to take back its place as one of the top tier teams with a new team motto: “Respect all, but fear none.”   The non-conference slate is highlighted by a tournament in New York City at the St. John’s Chartwell’s Holiday Classic, December 15-16. “This is going to be a great experience, but the purpose of going there is to win some basketball games,” said the new head coach. “We’re going to face formidable opponents. St. John’s will probably be a Top 10 basketball team.”   After an exhibition against Lee University on Nov. 5, the Golden Eagles open the regular season with a sixgame homestand, beginning against Tennessee Wesleyan in a November 10 doubleheader with the TTU men’s basketball team. “Kicking off the season with such a great home stretch is vital to helping our team grow,” Davis said. “One of our goals is to defend the home court and then steal some

on the road.”   Returning Eblen Center to one of the most feared gyms in the conference is high on Davis’ list. He recalls visiting Tech as an opponent, and remembering how much the tense atmosphere affected his players. According to Davis, four or five thousand screaming fans can make all the difference in a tight game. “It’s a love affair between the fans, especially the students. I expect to see faces painted, signs made. I want the students to fall in love with Tech basketball,” he said.   Tech hits the road for the first time Dec. 1 when the Golden Eagles travel down I-40 to Nashville to face Vanderbilt. Tech then takes on Samford at home before a six-game road trip over the holidays.   OVC conference action kicks off at Jacksonville State, Dec. 29. The OVC will be formatted differently with twodivisions, with Tech competing in the East Division. “All games are important, but the Ohio Valley Conference has always been very competitive and I expect this year to be no different,” Davis said. “I expect us to be at the top of the heap. A regular season championship is very difficult, but when those lights are on in the gym, you better be ready to play, and you better believe we’ll be ready.”

INSIDE THE EAGLES NEST What are you most looking forward to this season? Right now I’m looking forward to the first game. Really it’s a, I mean, you know its an old adage in the coaching business you take it one game at a time right now I’m looking forward to the first game. And after that I’ll be looking forward to the second game. What can fans expect about the style of play this season? Well, we’re going to be up tempo, we’re gonna be pushing the basketball down the floor. We’re not necessarily going to be a quick shooting team unless it comes early offense, unless it comes in transition. But we want to be a team that can strike quickly on offense. We’re gonna be a pressing trapping team and we’ll pick and choose when we wanna to do that so you know we wanna be a balanced team, a team that can do everything well.

The term purple pride, what does it mean to you? Well, you’re gonna ask me my favorite color, its has to be purple and gold. And I’ve always been partial to purple. Purple pride is, you know pride can be a bad thing. But in this case I think it’s a great thing and the people of this community, not just the college community, but the people of the upper Cumberland have a great deal of pride in the tradition of Tennessee tech women’s basketball. They have always been supportive and I expect nothing different. I expect them to be here in mass and get behind this basketball team. We do events to help them get to know our players as individuals and not just a number on their back. What facet of the game is most important to this year’s success? Well, I’ve always believed that you struggle with defense. We have to be a better defensive team. I think the one statistic that is the telling factor on how

good you are is field goal percentage defense. So if we can lead the OVC in field goal percentage defense, we’re gonna have a chance to make a statement in the league. What do you expect from Jala Harris this season? Well, Jala is so unselfish. Many times she might be too unselfish. She can score, but she gets just as much gratification in making the pass that leads to a score. And bottom line is, she just wants to succeed. She wants the team to succeed. She is a young lady that will put the team first always. So you know just solid play from Jala, take care of the basketball, be the quote coach on the floor, and Jala’s going to be fine. You know we have got to develop a point quard position where we can sit her out a little bit , but she’ll be on the floor a lot.

JIM

Head Coach First Season Tennessee Wesleyan ‘70

Davis holds a master’s degree from Tennessee Tech, has led teams to Ohio Valley Conference and Atlantic Coast Conference championships, and has found coaching success on every level from the Tennessee high school ranks to the WNBA. He’s the perfect fit to take the reins of the tradition-rich Tennessee Tech women’s basketball program.

of the Year in 1990 and 1994.

Jim Davis was named in July 2012 as the head coach of the Golden Eagle women’s basketball team.

Even more impressive than his on-court record is the academic success of his student-athletes, a trait that brands him as a natural fit for Tennessee Tech, another program built on high academic standards. During his span as Clemson head coach from 1987 through 2005, Davis saw every single four-year player receive her degree.

A native of Englewood, Tenn., Davis’ coaching resume includes junior high and high school positions, a brilliant six-year span at Roane State Community College, one championship year at Middle Tennessee State, 18 highly successful seasons at Clemson University, a year in the WNBA with the Minnesota Lynx, and the past two seasons as an assistant coach at Young Harris College in Georgia.

In 2011, he accepted an assistant coaching assignment at Young Harris College and helped create a new program. In just one season, he helped take the team from inception to a 23-3 record with a roster featuring only freshmen and sophomores. The majority of Davis’ past coaching career was at Clemson, and his record includes a lengthy list of highlights. In 18 years, he led his team to 16 post-season appearances including 14 trips to the NCAA Tournament and two WNIT appearances. While earning 355 victories, he brought the program into national prominence, guiding the Tigers to two championships in the impossibly tough Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC). His Clemson teams advanced to the NCAA Sweet 16 four times and climbed to the Elite Eight one time, and he posted 51 victories over Top 25 teams.

DAVIS

Clemson made it to the ACC championship game six times, claiming the title in 1996 and 1999. The team achieved 20 wins or more in 11 of his 18 seasons, and earned Top 25 Final National Rankings 11 times. Davis was named the ACC Coach

44

The record book reflects 501 all-time victories in his 25 seasons as a collegiate head coach, and he is the winningest basketball coach – men or women – in Clemson history. He was inducted into the Clemson Athletic Hall of Fame in 2008.

Prior to his arrival at Clemson, Davis was a familiar figure with Tennessee Tech fans – if not appreciated –as he served one season as head coach of arch-rival Middle Tennessee State. During the 1986-87 season, he guided the Lady Raiders to a 19-8 record and a share of the Ohio Valley Conference championship. Prior to his stop at Middle Tennessee, Davis spent the 1985-86 season as an assistant coach with the University of Florida Lady Gator basketball program. A Tennessee native, Davis spent six highly successful years at Roane State Community College in Harriman, Tenn., before moving to Florida. Davis put together one of the most successful stints ever in the junior college ranks by coaching Roane State’s Raiderettes to 127 wins against only 35 losses, building a .784 winning percentage. His teams won four Tennessee Junior College Athletic Association divisional championships and one state championship, and were ranked in the Top 10 by the National Junior College Athletic Association three times (1981, 1984, 1985). His biggest accomplishment was the 1984 team’s finish of 27-2 and the NJCAA National Championship title. Before entering the junior college ranks, Davis coached two years at Englewood (Tenn.) Junior High School and 10 seasons in various Tennessee high schools, including stops at Madisonville, Charleston and McMinn high schools. His overall high school record was 197-93, a winning percentage of .679. Davis graduated from Tennessee Wesleyan College in 1970 with a bachelor’s degree in health and physical education.

2012-2013 • TECH WOMEN’S BASKETBALL


After doing graduate work at East Tennessee State University, he received his master’s degree in Educational Administration and Supervision from Tennessee Tech in 1975.

Tech Hoops

In 1996, Davis was inducted into the Tennessee Junior and Community College Athletic Association Hall of Fame. In the fall of 1996, he was inducted into Tiger Brotherhood, an honorary fraternity that promotes high standards of social and ethical conduct while recognizing in its members an earnest devotion to Clemson, coupled with the integrity of character commensurate with a typical Clemson gentleman or lady. Davis was also inducted into the Clemson Athletic Hall of Fame in the fall of 2008.

Outlook

Davis becomes only the fifth head coach in the 42-year history of women’s basketball at Tennessee Tech.

Golden Eagles

“Marynell Meadors and Bill Worrell established a program that is known nationally for excellence,” Athletic Director Mark Wilson said. “That tradition was carried on by coach (Amy) Brown and coach Messer, and we expect that coach Davis will not only continue that excellence, but elevate our program to new level.”

STAFF

Davis is married to the former Bobbie Henderson and they have one grown son, Todd, a beautiful daughter-in-law, Rhonda, and two most precious grandchildren, Ansleigh Grace and Jacob Garrett.

BATTH

The first assistant coach to be added to Jim Davis’ women’s basketball staff at Tennessee Tech was someone the veteran coach is familiar with on several platforms – she played for him at Clemson and coached against him at Towson State. Erin Batth, an assistant coach at Towson State for the past two years, joined the Golden Eagle staff in July 2012 and brings with her a wealth of knowledge and experience.

Returning back to the state of Virginia, Batth served as the director of women’s basketball operations of three years at the University of Virginia under Hall of Fame Coach Debbie Ryan. Batth was in charge of the Cavalier Classic Tournament and also managed the budget, team travel and community service opportunities. The Cavalier teams advanced to the NCAA Tournament each of the three years that Batth was at UVA.

Batth was a player for Davis at Clemson from 1997 to 2001. In 1999 she helped lead the Tigers to the Atlantic Coast Conference Championship, and the Sweet Sixteen in the NCAA Tournament, one of four tournament appearances for Davis’ teams. Batth ended her career by entering the Clemson record books as the first player in school history to be drafted by the WNBA. At Towson State Batth, was involved in all aspects of the basketball program, including the growth and development of the Tiger post players. She was also involved in all aspects of recruiting, monitoring student athletes in the classroom and on the court, scouting opponents, organizing community service opportunities and managing the summer camps. After graduation, Batth continued her playing career in the WNBA, originally drafted to the Cleveland Rockers, but joining the San Antonio Silver Stars and finally becoming a Sacramento Monarch. Batth has also played abroad playing for Panathanikos, one of Greece’s premier athletic programs, as well as Apollon in Greece and Migros in Turkey. Her coaching career began at Virginia Commonwealth, where she was in charge of the development of the Rams’ post players. From there she moved to the West Coast spending time with the WNBA’s Sacramento Monarchs working in basketball operations along with the NBA’s Sacramento Kings. She assisted in the NBA War Room during the drafts and provided support for the general managers and coaches. She also served as a liaison between the league offices and the teams. While in Sacramento, Batth was given the opportunity to work with John Wisenant, former GM of the Sacramento Monarchs and current head coach of the N.Y. Liberty, T.R. Dunn, Elston Turner as well as Scotty Brooks, who is the current head coach of the Oklahoma Thunder, among others.

OVC TOURNAMENT

If that wasn’t a perfect half of basketball Thursday afternoon, well, it was pretty darn close. The Tennessee Tech women’s basketball team was nearly flawless in the first 20 minutes of its first game of the Ohio Valley Conference Tournament, pulled far away from Eastern Kentucky, and coasted to an 81-65 victory. Tech has now won 10 of its last 12 games. With the win, the Golden Eagles (16-15) advance to a semifinal showdown Friday afternoon with Eastern Illinois. Tipoff is scheduled for 2 p.m. in the Municipal Auditorium. EKU, which lost three times to Tech this winter, ends the season with a 13-16 mark. It will be be 26th time in the 31 years since the OVC tournament began in 1982 that the Tech women will play in the semifinals. By halftime, Tech held a 43-25 lead, jumping on top 5-0 to open the contest and never letting the Colonels catch up. Tech shot 49 percent in the first half, including 4-for-8 from long range, and was 5-for-6 at the free throw line. In addition, the Golden Eagles held EKU to 29 percent shooting, had a two-to-one rebound margin (25-13), and had only seven turnovers. More impressive, seven different players contributed points in the opening half with five scoring six or more. In short, the team effort by the Golden Eagles made short work of the battle. EKU did mount an early threat in the second half, cutting the lead down to 12, but that was the extent of the Colonel comeback. Tech bounced back to regain a 20-point lead and head coach Sytia Messer was able to turn things over to her bench. The Golden Eagle starters were sitting down and watching for the final 11 minutes of the game, and the reserves were able to keep the lead above 20 points down to the final minute. All 13 players saw action, and 12 put points on the board. In the end, junior Jala Harris was Tech’s leading scorer with 19 points, going 6-for-8 from the field and 6-for-6 at the free throw line. She also had four rebounds and three assists. Senior Tacarra Hayes also scored in double figures with 14 points, and contributed five assists. Brittany Darling had eight points and seven rebounds and Molly Heady chipped in with eight points and five boards. Rachel Glidden also had a solid game with six points and five rebounds, while Briana Jordan added seven points, three assists and two steals. Alex Jones led EKU with 14 points and 16 rebounds while Jade Barber added 11 points and 10 boards. Carla Booth also scored in double figures with 10. Tech shot 44.8 percent for the game overall (30-for-67) and 81 percent at the free throw line (17-for-21). EKU finished with 33.3 percent shooting (21-for-63) from the field and 70.8 percent at the charity line (17-for-24). The Golden Eagles held a 49-38 advantage on the boards. Tech faces EIU Friday in a semifinal matchup. The Panthers edged Tech by one point in Eblen Center two weeks ago, and have been idle since the close of the regular season last Saturday. EIU had byes on Wednesday and Thursday, and will be seeing its first action on the Municipal Auditorium floor.

Golden Eagles shock Eastern Illinois in OVC semifinal overtime win

Tech Hoops Outlook Golden Eagles Staff REVIEW Records History

The Tradition continues. For the 21st time in 31 years, Tennessee Tech has advanced to the championship game of the Ohio Valley Conference women’s basketball tournament. Third-seeded Tech (17-15) will meet No. 1 seed UT Martin Saturday at 4:30 p.m. in a nationally televised game in Municipal Auditorium. Coach Sytia Messer’s team made it a rematch of last year’s title game by pulling out an 81-72 victory in overtime over No. 2 seed Eastern Illinois Friday afternoon. Senior Tacarra Hayes nearly made history, finishing with 26 points, 14 rebounds, nine assists and five steals. She was one assist short of recording the first triple-double in tourney history. Junior Jala Harris also had a huge game, finishing with 24 points including seven in overtime. Molly Heady just missed another double-double with 10 points and nine rebounds, while freshman T’Keyah Williams added 10 points before leaving late in regulation with an injury. Eastern Illinois (22-8) had three players in double figures, topped by Ta’Kenya Nixon with 23 points. Mariah King added 11 points and seven rebounds, and Jordyne Crunck netted 10 for the Panthers. The Golden Eagles have now won 11 of their last 13 games. Tech never trailed the entire game, pulling on top by as many as 14 points in the first half. The Golden Eagles were still up by double digits with under nine minutes remaining, before Eastern Illinois began to peck away at the difference. Following a 40-minute delay in which the arena was evacuated to a safer location because of a tornado warning, the Panthers finally tied the contest on a 3-pointer by Sydney Mitchell with 12 seconds left. Tech had one chance to win in regulation by Hayes’ layup missed with one second to play. Already missing post players Brittany Darling (fouls) and Williams (injury), and with Harris playing with four fouls, the Golden Eagles didn’t miss a beat in the overtime. Harris got things started with a 3-pointer, her fourth of the game. After Nixon hit two free throws, Harris added a driving layup for a 73-70 lead, and Hayes added a jumper for a fivepoint margin. Heady made one free throw and Harris another layup and the lead was eight, 78-70, with 1:06 to play. In fact Tech went 4-for-5 from the field in overtime and built an 11-point lead, 81-70, before the Panthers managed their only basket of the extra session. They finished 1-for-8 in overtime.

OVC TOURNAMENT

Tennessee Tech’s hopes of a 10th Ohio Valley Conference Women’s Basketball Tournament championship looked pretty good midway through the second half Saturday afternoon. But top-seeded UT-Martin put together a five-minute spurt for an 18-2 run that lifted the Skyhawks from a six-point deficit into a 10-point lead, and the Golden Eagles couldn’t recover. UTM took the title, their second consecutive, with an 82-65 victory. Tech (17-16) was led by another uncanny, all-around performance from senior Tacarra Hayes with 23 points, 11 rebounds, seven assists and two blocked shots. It was an MVP-caliber performance for the Tech senior guard, who averaged 22.5 points, nine rebounds, seven assists, two steals and one blocked shot per game in her team’s three tourney contests. However, that honor was voted to UT Martin sophomore guard Heather Butler who finished the championship game with 35 points, one rebound, three assists and one steal. Butler and Hayes were joined on the five-player All-Tournament team by Jasmine Newsome of UTM, Jala Harris of Tech and Whitney Hanley of Austin Peay. Harris was the only other Golden Eagle to score in double figures, netting 10 along with five rebounds and two assists. Molly Heady added nine points and Brittany Darling scored eight. Tech struggled throughout the game to find the range, hitting just 2-for-19 from outside the 3-point arc. Tech was 26-for-45 inside the stripe for 58 percent, finishing the game with a 43.8 overall mark. UTM was 10-for-20 from long range and finished the game hitting 52.7 percent (29-for55) overall. The Skyhawks had a 33-32 edge in rebounds. Newcome had a solid game, finishing with 26 points, 11 rebounds, five assists, two blocked shots and four steals.

EAGLES FALL SHORT

Tech Hoops Outlook Golden Eagles Staff REVIEW Records History Honors Opponents

Tennessee Tech stormed out to a 20-point lead in the first half Wednesday night, but host Bradley kept its composure. The Braves found a lethal inside-outside scoring combination in the second half, clamped down on defense and pulled out a 7471 victory over the Golden Eagles in a first round game of the Women’s Basketball Invitational.   Tech, playing in the post-season for the 23rd time including the second straight year, had everything working in the first 18 minutes despite playing a distant road game following a 10-day layoff and a 10-hour bus ride.   But Bradley (18-15) got inside scoring from Latasha Hollingshed and some big outside scoring from Katie Yohn to scratch its way back into the game midway in the second half.   When Tech freshman post T’Keyah Williams left the game after knocking her head hard on the wooden floor while battling for a rebound, the Braves took advantage as Tech lost her defensive quickness in the paint. The 6-foot-3 Hollingshed scored 15 of her 21 points in the second half to lead the comeback surge.   Tech, meanwhile, went from a 5-for-7 performance in the first half from 3-point range to an 0-for-7 showing in the second half. The Golden Eagles, who shot 58.3 percent in the opening period, hit 40.7 percent in the second half.   Still, the Golden Eagles found enough resiliency to resist the Braves’ efforts for much of the second half. Three times Bradley tied the game and all three times the Golden Eagles answered to reclaim the lead.   In fact it appeared Tech had weathered the storm after Bradley tied things at 62-62 with 5:49 remaining as the Golden Eagles scored the next five to take a 67-62 lead with 5:07 to play.   Brooke Bisping, who didn’t play in the first half, scored and Hollingshed grabbed an offensive rebonds – the third straight on the offensive glass in the series by Bradley – and drew a foul. She made both free throws to trim Tech’s lead to 67-66 with 3:52 remaining.   With 3:18 to play, the Braves took their first lead since the opening minute when Catie O’Leary hit a driing layup for a 6867 lead. Bisping added a layup and a jumper the BU lead was at five, 72-67, with 1:42 to go.   Tacarra Hayes hit a basket with 1:22 left to make it 72-69 and the Golden Eagles got the ball back on a missed 3-point try by Yohn, but couldn’t take advantage. A turnover, Tech’s 21st of the contest, led to two free throws by Kelsey Bud and a 7469 lead.   Jala Harris scored a jumper with 24 seconds left, and Tech had two more chances to tie the game. Hayes grabbed a defensive rebound but missed a layup at the other end. She stole the ball with 16 seconds left but Harris’ 3-point try with three seconds left was off the mark.   Hayes, one of four seniors playing her final game as a Golden Eagle, narrowly missed her 11th double-double of the year, finishing with 18 points and nine rebounds, along with three assists, two blocked shots and a steal.   Harris added 17 points, four rebounds, four assists and two steals, and sophomore Molly Heady scored 14. Rachel Glidden, another departing senior, had nine points and three rebounds while senior Brittany Darling bowed out with four points and six boards. Williams also had four points, six rebounds and two blocked shots before her early exit.   Hollingshed led all scorers with 21 points and eight rebounds, going 8-for-11 from the field and 5-for-5 at the line. Yohn went 4-for-7 from long distance and finished with 19 points. Bradley also got double digit scoring from O’Leary with 12, along with six assists, and Bisping, who scored all 11 of her points in the second half.   Bradley’s leading scorer, Leah Kassing, was held scoreless by the Golden Eagles.   The Golden Eagles ended the season with a 17-17 overall record. The 34 games played during the 2011-12 season is the most for a Tech women’s team since 34 in the 1980-81 season, and second all-time behind the record 36 games in 1976-77.   The Braves (18-15) advance to the second round of the WBI tournament, and will play Sunday against either Minnesota or Charleston Southern.

OHIO VALLEY CONFERENCE

From left: Beth DeBauche, Ohio Valley Conference Commissioner; Brad Walker, Associate Commissioner/Chief Operating Officer; Jennifer Gibbs, Assistant Commissioner for Championships; Kyle Schwartz, Assistant Commissioner for Media Relations; Brian Pulley, Assistant Commissioner for External Affairs; Matthew Banker, Assistant Commissioner for Institutional Services; Heather Brown, Director of Media Relations.

Entering its 64th year, the Ohio Valley Conference continues to build on the success that has made it the nation’s eighth-oldest NCAA Division I conference. In May 2011 the Conference expanded for the second time in four years, adding Belmont University which will begin competition in the 2012-13 academic year. The addition of Belmont will give the OVC 12 members, the most the league has had at one time in its illustrious history. The move added a second team in the city of Nashville and was the first addition to the league since Southern Illinois University Edwardsville joined in 2008. SIUE will begin regular season competition this season (2011-12) and be eligible for postseason the same year Belmont joins the league. The 2009-10 school year saw a change in leadership as Beth DeBauche was named the seventh full-time Commissioner in league history on July 28. She is currently one of just five females to be the head of a Division I conference, and one of just eight to lead a Division I conference all-time. The last three commissioners of the OVC have moved onto jobs as the commissioner of the Big Ten, Big 12 and the Mid-American Conferences. The OVC’s proud past dates back to 1948, but seeds for the new league were actually planted in 1941. Discussions were put on hold by World War II but reemerged Feb. 27-28, 1948 at the Kentucky Hotel in Louisville as Morehead State, Louisville and Evansville merged to form the OVC. Tennessee Tech joined the OVC the following year. In the 1950s, the OVC became a pioneer on a much more significant scale socially, breaking racial barriers to providde educational and athletic opportunities to African-Americans. Through the past 63 years, 15 teams have won or shared the league’s football title. The list is led by Eastern Kentucky, winner of 20 outright or shared football crowns, including both the 2007 and 2008 championships. Former member Middle Tennessee is next with 11 titles, followed by Tennessee Tech with nine. The first Division I-AA/FCS football playoff was held in 1978 with only four teams, which is the only year through present day that the OVC did not field a playoff representative. In the late 1970s, women’s athletics began somewhat of a rebirth on the national scene as the NCAA began sponsoring and marketing women’s sports. Recognizing the need to provide increased opportunities for female athletes, the OVC established women’s championships in the sports of basketball, tennis and track in 1977, with cross country and volleyball added over

60

the next four years. Those sports were initially governed by the Association of Intercollegiate Athletics for Women (AIAW), but the overall strength of women’s programs in the league was demonstrated by the automatic bids the OVC instantly received when the NCAA became the governing body in 1982. The playing field is not the only place where OVC athletes are working hard. The league also recognizes excellence in the classroom. Six ScholarAthlete Awards are presented yearly to male and female athletes, while others are commended for their academic success by being Medal of Honor recipients or earning a spot on the Commissioner’s Honor Roll. Additionally, the league annually presents one institutional Academic Achievement Award, as well as separate team awards in each Conference-sponsored sport. Since the College Sports Information Directors of American (CoSIDA) Academic All-America program began, the Ohio Valley Conference has had 202 student-athletes honored with the award, including 35 over the last three years. Through the early years of the league, administrators wrestled with fan behavior due to the close proximity of the Conference members and the intense rivalries which developed. Just as it did decades ago, the OVC took the leadership role on what has become a national issue. In 1995, the OVC

The Ohio Valley Conference 215 Centerview Drive, Suite 115 Brentwood, Tenn. 37027 (615) 371-1698 www.ovcsports.com

implemented a first-of-its-kind “Sportsmanship Statement,” a policy which promotes principles of fair play, ethical conduct and respect for one’s opponent. The statement has become a model for others to follow across the nation, and has answered the challenge of the NCAA Presidents Commission to improve sportsmanship in collegiate athletics. Additionally, the OVC annually presents the Steve Hamilton Sportsmanship Award, in honor of the former Morehead State student-athlete, coach and athletics director, to a junior or senior studentathlete with significant athletic contributions who best exemplifies the characteristics of sportsmanship and citizenship. Most recently, the Conference has also implemented the OVC Institutional and Team Sportsmanship Awards, which are presented to one institution and 18 sport-specific teams voted by their peers to have best exhibited the standards of sportsmanship and ethical conduct as outlined by the OVC and NCAA. The vision of leadership demonstrated by the Founding Fathers in 1948 remains alive today as the Ohio Valley Conference prepares for the future. One example is in regard to the current trend in collegiate athletics administration for increased involvement of university presidents in setting policies and making rules. The presidents of OVC institutions, however, have always governed the Conference, long before presidential governance became a national theme. The Ohio Valley Conference sponsors the following sports: baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, tennis and track for men, and basketball, cross country, golf, soccer, softball, tennis, track and volleyball for women. In addition, the OVC also sponsors the combined men’s and women’s sport of rifle. Now in its seventh decade of competition, the Ohio Valley Conference has grown significantly from its humble beginnings while increasing the number of athletics opportunities it provides for students. Current league representatives include charter members Eastern Kentucky University, Morehead State University and Murray State University, along with Austin Peay State University, Eastern Illinois University, Jacksonville State University, Southeast Missouri State University, Southern Illinois University Edwardsville, Tennessee State University, Tennessee Technological University and the University of Tennessee at Martin. Belmont University will become the league’s 12th member on July 1, 2012.

In 2008, Emily Christian had her jersey (40) retired, adding to the six jerseys which had previously been retired by Tennessee Tech to honor the outstanding Golden Eagle players who wore them. The first was Pam Chambers (21), followed by Jerilynn Harper (30). Cheryl Taylor (33) was honored following the 1986-87 season, and in 1992 Angela Moorehead (41) was added to the elite list. Diane Seng (51) joined their elite company in 2001, and Janet Holt (50) in 2002. Moorehead, Chambers, Harper and Taylor are all in the Tennessee Tech Sports Hall of Fame.

Janet Holt Baker inducted into the TTU Sports Hall of Fame

That lengthy list sets her apart as one of the greatest women’s basketball players in program history.   Holt-Baker is one of four people who will be inducted at the annual Hall of Fame Dinner, scheduled for Friday, Nov. 2, in the Multipurpose Room of the Roaden University Center. The induction dinner is part of Homecoming festivities. Tickets for the dinner, or the Saturday afternoon game against Eastern Illinois, can be purchased through the Athletics Ticket Office in Eblen Center or by calling (931) 372-3940.   To open her career under coach Bill Worrell, Holt earned OVC Freshman of the Week honors three times and conference Player of the Week recognition once. She averaged 13.3 points and led the team in rebounds and steals during her rookie season.   As a sophomore, Janet earned her first Kodak honor. She was named the OVC Player of the Year and earned Player of the Week five times. She also earned CoSIDA Academic All-America honors and was named to three all-tournament teams as she averaged 17.4 points per game.

Review

In 2001, Holt ranked fourth in the nation in scoring as a junior and ranked among OVC leaders in seven categories. Her athletic achievements continued to grow, but her academic achievements grew, as well. By the time she was a junior, Holt was listed on the OVC Commissioner’s Honor Roll three times as well as Tech’s A.D. Honor Roll all six semesters. During the season, Holt recorded 11 doubledoubles.   Holt’s career was capstoned during her senior season. In the Golden Eagle season-opener Holt scored a career-high 41 points against Ole Miss. She surpassed 2,000 career points and became the only player in the program’s rich history with more than 2,000 points, 900 rebounds, 250 assists and 150 steals.

A 2002 graduate of Tech, Janet Holt-Baker led her team to four OVC championships and two NCAA appearances. She left her mark with indelible ink, being recognized first as the 1998-99 OVC Freshman of the Year followed by three consecutive years as the OVC Player of the Year. In her career, Holt reaped four All-OVC selections in addition to Kodak All-Region and CoSIDA Academic All-America honors.

Holt earned both the Kodak all-district honors and Academic All-America selection that season. She was again named the OVC Player of the Year – the only women’s player in history to win three OVC Player of the Year awards -and finished her career ranked second all-time in OVC and Tech history with 2,420 points.

HISTORY

Holt wrapped up her decorated career as a four-time team MVP.   What distinguished Holt from any other scorer was her dedication to her team and her education. Entering into her final season, Holt was quoted by SLAM magazine: “The WNBA isn’t really a priority. I’m a nursing student, and I’ll probably trade rebounds for IVs after this season is over.”   She later stated that her team winning was more important than leading the nation in scoring: “It’s more important to me to step up and be a leader, if it happens it happens, but I’m going to worry about our team and its success.”   The campus also recognized Janet’s accomplishments. She was chosen as the school’s NCAA Woman of the Year in 2002, and was picked as Techs Outstanding Female Athlete in both 2001 and 2002.   A native of Lynchburg, Tennessee, Holt graduated with a degree in nursing in 2002. Holt-Baker currently resides in her hometown of Lynchburg with her husband, Todd. The couple has two sons, Will (7) and Hoyt (6).   As predicted, she is working in the health field as a clinical manager, overseeing the medical/pediatric floor at the Harton Regional Medical Center in Tullahoma.

Tommy Tech

Evil Eagle

Awesome Eagle

First mascot name. “Tommy” was actually the struttin’ Eagle logo, rather than a suited mascot. “Tommy Tech” came from the “TT” on his sweater.

Mascot name from mid-70s to early-80s. Named after “Evil Knievel.” Both “Evils” were known for daredevil stunts.

Beloved Tennessee Tech suited mascot. Although we first had a suited mascot in the mid-1960s, it wasn’t dubbed “Awesome” until the late 1980s.

OLDHAM Tech Hoops

– University President – Freed-Hardeman, 1980

Golden Eagles

He spent a year following his graduate work as a Wellcome Research Fellow at Burroughs Wellcome Co. (Glaxo Smith-Kline) before joining the faculty at Mississippi State University in 1986. Oldham served as head of Mississippi State University’s chemistry department for five years prior to becoming MSU’s College of Arts and Sciences dean in 2001.

Honors Opponents TECH

Oldham has served on statewide task forces to develop the new higher education funding formula for Tennessee and to create universal transfer pathways to provide seamless student transfers across all Tennessee public colleges and universities. Along with his administrative accomplishments, Oldham has authored more than 35 peer reviewed research articles in analytical chemistry, along with two patents and approximately 100 conference presentations. His research has been financially supported by the National Science Foundation, American Chemical Society, U.S. Department of Defense, U.S. Department of Agriculture, U.S. Geological Survey and private industry. He has served on a number of scholarly editorial boards and as a peer reviewer for both the NSF and National Institutes of Health. Oldham and his wife, Kari, are proud of their family, which includes three sons (Clay, Paden and Sam), a daughter (Audrey) and a daughterin-law (Rebecca).

During his five years as provost at UTC, enrollment grew 28 percent to more than 11,400 students. He led efforts to improve student retention and graduation rates resulting in a 15 percent increase in freshmen retention in just three years. Under his leadership, UTC established the Center for Advisement and Student Success, created the Math Plaza and initiated UTeaChattanooga to educate future teachers. He oversaw the addition of doctoral programs in advanced nursing practice and occupational therapy as well as the redesign of summer school. Under his guidance, the university raised significant private support, received board approval to create the University Honors College and launched a creative new “Degree in 3” program designed to accelerate degree completion at reduced student costs.

History

Records

Review

President Oldham previously served as provost and senior vice chancellor of academic affairs at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, a position he had held since 2007.

WHERE QUALITY COUNTS

Today, Tech makes a number of contributions to economic development locally, regionally and nationally.

The university is divided into seven academic divisions offering 44 programs of study leading to the bachelor’s degree and 20 programs of study at the graduate level. More than 75 percent of the 370 full-time faculty members hold doctoral degrees.

The Fitness Center is a free, full-service health club for students. It houses a fully equipped weight room, 25-meter indoor pool, cardiovascular equipment and an indoor track. Tech is also a center for the arts, presenting concerts, theatre productions, lectures, dance performances, films, workshops, demonstrations and art exhibits each year. And, of course there’s always an athletics event to attend. Tennessee Tech’s athletic teams compete in the Ohio Valley Conference for 14 sports on the NCAA Division I level, and students can attend all regular season athletic events absolutely free!

History

Tech was established in 1915 as Tennessee Polytechnic Institute, located on the site of its forerunner, Dixie College. TPI gained university status in 1965, reflecting the institution’s role as a multipurpose, statesupported university.

Records

Considered one of the most picturesque campuses in the South -- and one of the safest -- the buildings carry an attractive Georgian style of architecture that lends the Tech campus an Ivy-league character.

At Tech, it’s easy to get involved and make friends. Campus recreation coordinates 11 intramural and club sports: basketball, bowling, flag football, golf, racquetball, rugby, soccer, softball, tennis, volleyball and wrestling.

Review

Tennessee Tech is widely known as an institution noted for its academic quality -- an institution where the energies of the faculty, staff and students are devoted to ensuring that the university’s quality is maintained and enhanced.

Tennessee Tech students know that there is a lot more to college life than what goes on in the classroom. Nearly 200 student organizations on campus offer activities ranging from academic, athletic, cultural, political, community-oriented, social to spiritual.

Staff

Tech’s 65,000-plus alumni occupy positions of leadership in education, business, industry, government and public service.

CAMPUS LIFE

Golden Eagles

For nearly 100 years, Tennessee Tech has served the various needs of the region, the state and beyond. Not only is Tech renowned as a fine institution of higher education, it also serves as a public resource center and encourages scholarly research and creative activity by its faculty and students.

Outlook

WILSON Tech Hoops

– Director of Athletics – University of Maine, 1991

Coming off an appointment on the NCAA Leadership Council, Wilson is beginning a four-year term on the NCAA Division I Football Championship Committee and Division I Football Issues Committee, and has been very active in the Ohio Valley Conference governance structure.

Wilson was named Director of Athletics on July 1, 2004. He came to Tennessee Tech from a position of Associate Athletics Director at Ohio University. Prior to that, he served as the Director of Athletic Marketing for the University of Massachusetts, worked as a graduate assistant in the UMass athletic department and interned with the Northwestern University ticketing and marketing departments. Wilson received his bachelor’s degree in 1991 from the University of Maine in physical education and health, and earned his master’s in sports management from the University of Massachusetts in 1994. Mark has two daughters, Katey (17) and Meaghan (12).

Honors

Additional building plans call for a new student-athlete center and an on-campus tennis center. Another step achieved under Wilson’s direction has been increased fund raising and development efforts with the goal of providing the necessary facilities and resources for Tech’s student-athletes, coaches and staff.

Opponents

All of those accomplishments have come while the department has continued to stay focused on compliance with all NCAA rules and regulations. The most recent NCAA announcements show that all 14 of Tech’s athletic programs are comfortably above the benchmark for compliance in the Athletic Progress Rate (APR), including two Tech teams winning Public Recognition Awards. Prior to that, the Golden Eagle softball team ranked first in the nation for cumulative team GPA for the second time in four years.

Just as important are the relationships that Wilson has developed and nurtured, including the Cookeville-Putnam County Chamber of Commerce, the student body, the campus community and the region at-large. His leadership has been instrumental in the overwhelming success in the community’s host role at Tucker Stadium for the annual

History

Wilson also developed a strategic plan for Tech’s athletic facilities and has already seen some of those plans become reality. During the past five years, Tech has completed several construction and renovation projects to athletic facilities, including a spectacular, new Athletic Performance Center on the western edge of campus, a spacious, new basketball office complex in Eblen Center, a new natural grass practice field, installation of new turf in Tucker Stadium, renovating the running track, renovating the football offices, meeting rooms and locker rooms, and new lights at Tucker Stadium.

Another highly visible product of Wilson’s leadership is the increased fan support at Golden Eagle events. Last year, while winning the OVC Championship for the first time in 36 years, the Tech football team drew the largest average home attendance at Tucker Stadium in 25 years. In February, Tech set a school record for the largest attendance at a women’s basketball game.

Records

Under Wilson’s guidance, the program has continued to focus on the academic success of its student-athletes, with soaring numbers each semester on the Athletic Director’s Honor Roll. Tech’s student-athletes have achieved their highest overall combined semester GPAs.

During his tenure, Wilson has successfully selected and hired head coaches for six of the school’s 14 teams, and three of those hires have earned Ohio Valley Conference Coach of the Year honors.

Review

Wilson, 43, has led Athletics to several milestone accomplishments during his first eight years, including enhanced facilities and fund raising, high profile staff additions, and compliance and academic success.

Under Wilson’s direction, Tech is also on the brink of introducing an enhanced digital video presence for athletics, including free live web streaming productions and a variety of additional video programs, interviews and features that will give fans, alumni and supporters greater access to Golden Eagle teams, student-athletes, coaches and staff.

Staff

In June, Wilson agreed to a five-year contract extension, keeping him at the helm of the Golden Eagle athletics program through 2017.

Tech has also seen growth in regional and national media exposure for its student-athletes and coaches while his hand-on approach to marketing and branding Golden Eagle Athletics has earned increased opportunities and involvement for fans and sponsors. Some of the ideas he has implemented include the Purple Pride Caravans, a new athletics logo and branding marks that have gained nationwide recognition, and an updated and modern ticketing system.

Golden Eagles

In short, Wilson has facilitated growth and excellence in all areas of TTU Athletics.

Outlook

Mark Wilson’s first eight years as Director of Athletics at Tennessee Tech have showcased his vision, energy, and enthusiasm for providing outstanding experiences for Tech’s student-athletes and fans. Highlights of his efforts include major improvements in Tennessee Tech’s athletics facilities including the Basketball Coach’s Complex and the Athletic Performance Center, high graduation and APR rates by Golden Eagle student-athletes, outstanding academic success, and excellent relationships with the campus, community and alumni.

– Assistant Athletics Director for Academics and Student Welfare –

Virginia Lewis Academic Coordinator

The WIN Program was implemented in the fall semester of 2004 to provide additional support for freshmen and studentathletes whose general academic progress places them at risk for maintaining eligibility and graduating. The program involves the student-athlete, coach(es), academic advisor, tutors, and others to build academic skills for success. Participation in the program is primarily based on grades, and coaches or the academic advisor may recommend additional participation at any time. All incoming freshmen meet at least one time per week with their coach to discuss academic progress and needs as well as time management and study skill techniques. Other aspects of the program include monitored study hours, tutoring, and study skills workshops.

The success of Tennessee Tech University’s athletic teams is tied closely to the academic progress of each student-athlete, and the academic performance of each Tech student-athlete is closely monitored by the coaching staff as well as an experienced staff in Academic Services, led by Dr. Lance Jasitt. Student-athletes are the most visible component of a university, entertaining thousands of fans, students, alumni, family and friends. Their athletic abilities and achievements are a focus for national attention, as athletic events not only bring back faithful alumni, but serve as a welcome mat to the university for potential new students. Student-athletes devote many hours to practice, conditioning and training in an effort to be the best they can be. These hours are not required by nonathletes in the student body, and these extra demands can compete with academics for the student-athlete’s time and energy. The Tech Athletics Department works to provide help with course content (through tutors and monitored study hours) as well as with time management and study skills and any other academic support services that will allow Tech student-athletes to maximize their academic potential.

Emphasizing Player Development The Tennessee Tech strength and conditioning program is a blend of science, technology, nutrition and one-on-one attention to each athlete. Golden Eagle student-athletes make a year-round commitment to physically preparing to play their sport at the highest level. At TTU, a program is tailored to match each student-athlete’s individual needs with the sport-specific physical demands. This includes strength, speed, power, agility, flexibility, metabolic conditioning and motivation. This combination allows Tennessee Tech’s student-athletes to better reach their specific goals. Another major focus of the strength staff is the development of sport-specific speed, agility and conditioning.

Strength and Conditioning

Train using ground-based, multi-joint lifting versus machine lifting Most athletes participate in stand up power sports using many muscle groups at once. The emphasis of training should be on total body athleticism and flexibility rather than having body weight supported by a machine and forcing isolation of just one muscle group. By incorporating ground-based lifts and exercises that focus on the total body, the athlete becomes more prepared to use their whole body in sport skills.

Tech Hoops

By taking advantage of expert instruction, Golden Eagle student-athletes are afforded every opportunity to maximize their athletic potential.

Development of Core Strength Imagine the body is a 3-link chain with the head and arms being one link, the torso/trunk being the second link and the legs being the third link. If the core link (trunk/torso) is weak or inflexible, there is little chance of maximizing potential because all body movement stems from the core.

Train for Power (which results in increased speed) Power = (Mass Moved x Distance)/time. The less time it takes to move a mass a certain distance, the higher the output. As seen in the above formula, an increase in speed of movements results in an increase in power.

Train Athleticism Many factors are included in athleticism: strength, power, speed, agility, flexibility, coordination, fitness level and mental toughness are just a few. It is the goal to maximize an athlete’s overall athleticism.

History

Make workouts short and intense There are many philosophies on how to get athletes stronger, faster and more flexible. But, when combined, these philosophies have the same three underlying principles: a) The workouts should be highly organized b) The workouts should be short in duration c) The workouts should be extremely intense

Records

Train as a Team When teams train together, it provides another opportunity to develop chemistry, teamwork, leadership skills and a competitive environment. Within this competitive environment, teams can work on mental toughness, attacking the weights and maintaining a positive attitude. By enabling athletes to work on these things as a team, it helps to promote a stronger sense of unity, thus making it harder to “fold” under pressure.

Over the past several years, many of the interns who have worked for Schabert have moved into full-time positions in the Sports Information profession at a wide variety of colleges and universities, including Appalachian State, UAB, Xavier, Idaho, Texas State, Northern Illinois, and the University of New Mexico. A Minnesota native who learned the trade under the guidance of his father, Bob (a long-time Minnesota Sportswriter), Rob earned his bachelor’s degree in mass communications from St. Cloud (Minn.)

TECH WOMEN’S BASKETBALL • TRADITION OF EXCELLENCE


T

here's no question Tennessee Tech University is a great place to get an education. And Cookeville is a great college town. The largest micropolitan area in Tennessee and one of the top 40 micropolitan areas in the nation, Cookeville has consistently been rated among the top 10 most affordable regions in the nation.

Cookeville boasts a mild climate, with an average temperature of 57 and four distinct seasons. Located within a day's drive of 75 percent of the nation's population, Cookeville is just off Interstate 40, which runs from the east coast to California. City life is easily accessible, as well, because Cookeville is situated within 100 miles of Nashville, Knoxville and Chattanooga — three of Tennessee's major metropolitan areas. The seat of Putnam County, Cookeville is the heart of a three-county alliance known as the Highlands, which centers Tennessee's 14-county Upper Cumberland region. We have hundreds of acres of unspoiled nature — from championship golf courses to natural preserves, state parks and top-rated lakes — close to home. There's plenty of nature inside the city limits, too; the City of Cookeville tends nine parks, including Cane Creek Park, a 262-acre natural area with a 56-acre lake. And while Cookeville is a relatively small town, we have no lack of culture. We are one of the smallest cities in the U.S. with a full-blown symphony orchestra, and our area attracts visual artists and craftspeople from across the nation, thanks to the Appalachian Center for Craft, a satellite campus of TTU. Drama also takes center stage here, with the 456-seat Cookeville Performing Arts Center cranking out productions year-round, including the award-winning Drama Center Backstage series. Cookeville is home to three museums — the Cookeville Depot Museum, the Cookeville History Museum and the Cookeville Children's Museum — and a year-round slate of events, including regular excursion trains and the annual Fall FunFest. A walkable downtown shopping district and an impressive roster of national chain stores give the retail segment a small-town feel with big-city convenience. Add to that our more than 100 restaurants and 1,400 hotel rooms, and you'll quickly see that Cookeville offers something for everyone.
