2017-18 PREVIEW As with any college basketball team, the beginning of the season arrives with several unkown factors. For Jordan Dupuy's second Northwestern State women's basketball team, the preseason only served to enhance those uncertainties. "We're still trying to establish what our identitiy is," Dupuy said. "Knowing the system and how we coach, how we prepare, will be a strength. What we're going to hang our hat on, I don't know yet. I'd love to be able to say it was going to be creating tempo and the amount of effort we'll play with, but we're still trying to figure ourselves out." Injuries to several players, including Nia Randall's season-ending Achilles tear, affected Dupuy and his staff's ability to evaluate a full roster for much of preseason practice. Instead of worrying about who his team had or didn't have available, Dupuy said he he hoped his team used the opportunities afforded them a chance to improve. "Its all in our approach," Dupuy said. "We don't know when certain people are going to come back, but we have to view every time we step on the court as an opportunity to get better. Somebody's going to have to step up. "The best teams in the country lose players and have people step up. It happens all the time. The team that comes to mind professionally is the (New England) Patriots. They have the 'next man up' motto, and that's what we have to do." As has been the case since the Southland Conference went to an 18-game league schedule, the Lady Demons will again play an 11-game, non-conference slate that includes six games at Prather Coliseum. Among the pre-Southland matchups is a Nov. 28 home date against Southern Miss, where Dupuy coached for eight seasons before taking the reins of the Lady Demons program. After tipping off the season at Ole Miss on Nov. 10, Northwestern State opens its home schedule two days later against LeTourneau. Included in the remaining Gabby Bell nine non-conference games are trips to Power Five foes Oklahoma State (Nov. 19), Texas (Dec. 13) and TCU (Dec. 17) and a matchup with state rival UL Monroe (Dec. 3). Northwestern State also will face Texas Southern in the NSU Cenla Showdown in Alexandria on Dec. 9. Additional home games are against state rivals LSU-Shreveport (Nov. 15) and LSU-Alexandria (Nov. 22) and a Dec. 20 visit from Central Baptist. "We're going to be tested on the road," Dupuy said. "We're going to have some games where we can try some different combinations, some different things at home. We're going to have a good home battle against Southern Miss that will be good for

us no matter the outcome - although you always want to win. "Games like that help you get prepared for what you're going to face during conference. In all honesty, it's about playing your best in March and getting hot for the tournament. You want to set yourself up for a great seed so you can make a run in the tournament. I think our schedule's going to allow us to do that." The Lady Demons will face their typical 18-game Southland Conference schedule, squaring off with defending regular-season and tournament champion Central Arkansas, Stephen F. Austin, New Orleans, McNeese, Southeastern Louisiana and Nicholls in home-and-home series. Northwestern State will host Texas A&M-Corpus Christi (Jan. 3), Sam Houston State (Jan. 17) and Incarnate Word (Feb. 21) and will travel to Abilene Christian (Jan. 13), Lamar (Feb. 7) and Houston Baptist (Feb. 14) in single-game conference action. The Lady Demons were picked to finish eighth in the conference by league coaches and sports information directors. Junior post Cheyenne Brown was named a preseason second-team all-conference selection after averaging 17 points and 7.4 rebounds per game in conference play during the 2016-17 season. "Our league is wide open," Dupuy said. "Lamar has the most returning and should be the preseason No. 1. Every spot is up for grabs though. Everyone (else) lost a lot. It's going to be interesting to see how it's going to play out." Brown, who set the school single-season field-goal percentage record (62 percent) as a sophomore, was one of those Lady Demons who were dinged up during preseason practice. Brown is Northwestern State's top returning letter winner and will be a focal point of the Lady Demons offense provided she is healthy. "She was shooting the ball 70 percent in practice, including the 3 ball," Dupuy said. "She had gotten confident from out there. That's something I told her she needed to add after last year, because she was going to have a bull's-eye on her back, being the best returner on our team. Not having that established guard to free her up, she's going to be the main focus of everyone's defensive schemes, so she had to step her game out and be able to score from all over the floor." Brown and senior Tia Youngblood bring with them the most experience on the team. Youngblood has appeared in all 95 games the Lady Demons have played in the past three seasons, starting 64. She inherites the role of team leader, one she has taken to quickly. "Tia's done a great job of being a leader," Dupuy said. "It's amazing when you get into that final year how a lot of things click and you realize the desperation you need to attack each day with because you're not going to get that day back. She's been through the battles, and she under-

stands she has a long way to go, too. "When you see your leader working hard every single day, it helps." Youngblood's classmate, point guard Sami Thomas, will redshirt in 201718 after suffering a knee injury in February. Just because she won't be on the court doesn't mean Thomas won't be able to help her teammates. "Sami will help us from a coaching standpoint," Dupuy said. "It's a career choice she wants to take on, and there's no better time to start figuring it out than now. She has responsibilities here in the office from a planning standpoint. She's helped us in recruiting. She'll take on some bench responsibilities during the game and practice. We're going to make sure everyone is an asset." Junior forward Libba Gilliam proved herself to be an asset, especially late in Southland Conference play. Gilliam knocked down 10 of her final 18 3-point attempts of the season, all of which came in SLC play. Gilliam set career highs in nearly all offensive categories in her sophomore season. Dupuy is looking for more growth from the 6-foot-1 Alabama native. "She's still shooting the ball extremely well," Dupuy said. "The thing I don't want Libba to do is fall in love with that 3-point shot. I want her to be able to get to the block and score down there, be confident in her decision making, be able to execute the offense, be able to step up on the defensive end and get more physical. She konws that. I'm on her hard, but it's because I know she can get that done." When Thomas went down with an injury in February, it allowed then-freshman guard Gabby Bell to expand her role, a scenario that will repeat itself in 2016-17. "She understands the system," Dupuy said. "She doesn't have to look at me for everything anymore. She can make corrections. We're still working on time and situation, knowing what to do, being able to recognize defenses and the speed of the game." Bell was one of five freshmen who saw extended time in 2016-17. Randall was lost to injury for 2017-18, but the trio of Victoria Miller, Jocelyn Scott and Jasmyn Johnson is in position to contribute heavily. Miller flashed her ability with a 16-rebound game against Mississippi Valley State in November before a shoulder injury ended her season in late January. "Victoria was always the Energizer Bunny for us before she got hurt," Dupuy said. "She was always around the ball. The thing she's done now is worked on scoring through contact and being able to step out and shoot some." Scott and Johnson also made strides from their freshman season. Dupuy praised Johnson for showing up in great shape for the season while Scott has worked to expand her offensive game. The Lady Demons add a quartet of newcomers -- junior college transfers

Nautica Grant and Leah Barnes and freshmen Jada Freeman, Lacee Savage and Jha'ne Wheeler. Grant is a high-scoring guard, who brings the ability to score out of scheme, while Barnes gives the Lady Demons' frontcourt a boost of athleticism. The trio of freshmen include a pair of guards (Freeman, Wheeler) who can play both backcourt spots and another athletic forward in Savage. Those five will fold in with a group of returners that knows better what to expect in Year 2 of the Dupuy Era. "The time frame we had last year has been sped up double," Dupuy said. "We know what to do and how to attack it. That consistency will pay off this year."

Deneen Parker Associate Head Coach Second season at NSU Stephen F. Austin, 1994 Deneen Parker wasted little time putting her imprint on the Northwestern State women's basketball staff. Under Parker's tutelage, sophomore post Cheyenne Brown made tremendous strides in her all-around game while fellow sophomore forward Libba Gilliam became an inside-out weapon, showcasing a deft 3-point touch during conference play. After spending two decades at SMU, Parker's transition to the NSU bench was a smooth one, aided by familiarity with head coach Jordan Dupuy. Parker's and Dupuy’s relationship dates to their time as Conference USA rivals at SMU and Southern Miss, respectively. “Deneen and I go way back from our Conference USA days,” Dupuy said. “The thing that always stuck out to me was her personality and her aura to attract people to her and to the SMU program. She was always a great recruiter, especially in the state of Texas. I think she’s going to be a great fit for our staff, for our girls and especially for me with her being the associate head coach. “I’ll be able to bounce ideas off her, and she will be able to help me in my first head coaching endeavor, which is a plus.” Parker was part of five NCAA Tournament teams while on Rhonda Rompola’s staff at SMU, helping the Mustangs reach the Big Dance in 1996, 1998, 1999, 2000 and 2008. With Parker on staff, SMU captured regular-season championships in the Western Athletic Conference (2000) and Conference USA (2009, 2013). SMU’s 1999 WAC Tournament championship was the program’s first as was the Mustangs’ 2000 regular-season title. During her 21 seasons with the Mustangs, Parker burnished her reputation as a standout recruiter, eventually taking over as SMU’s recruiting coordinator. Parker’s college roots began in the Southland Conference when she played four years at Stephen F. Austin, during which time she dueled with some

Erin Crane Assistant Coach Second season at NSU Dubuque, 2012 Erin Crane's first season on the Northwestern State women's baketball coaching staff ended with a first for the program. Crane helped senior guard Beatrice Attura elevate her game to first-team all-conference and All-Louisiana levels while making program history in a couple of instances. Attura became the Lady Demons' first CoSIDA Academic All-American, earning first-team honors, while also setting the school single-season 3-point record with 88.

In her lone season at Saint Mary’s, Crane helped lead the Cardinals to a 21-6 record and a second-place finish in the Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference. Crane, a Baraboo, Wisconsin, native, spent three seasons at Northern State, a Division II program in South Dakota, before heading to Saint Mary’s.

ment championship. After spending the 2012-13 and 2013-14 seasons as a graduate assistant, Crane was Northern State’s volunteer assistant in 2014-15. She comes from a family of coaches, having played for her father in high school. Her brother Andy, currently an assistant coach at Youngstown State, was an assistant at Dubuque during Crane’s playing career. “Erin comes from a coaching family and knows how it works,” head coach Jordan Dupuy said. “Having been an assistant at both the D2 and D3 level, you have to wear many hats, and she has done a great job of assisting in all areas of the program. Here, her main focus will be the organization of recruiting and heading up our community service program. Having a more concentrated set of duties will allow her to be even more successful as a coach.” Crane played two seasons at Dubuque after playing two seasons at Madison College. She is a 2012 Dubuque graduate in speech communication and earned her master’s degree in sport performance and leadership from Northern State in 2014. Crane began her coaching career at the AAU level, coaching the U-14 Team Wisconsin in 2012.

the coaching staff while also assisting Tulane’s marketing, alumni and video departments. Her versatility, along with a recruiting relationship, drew head coach Jordan Dupuy’s eye to Grayson. Grayson, who earned her undergraduate degree in psychology while playing at Tulane, will handle various facets of the Northwestern State program, including video and social media. “She understands the impact social media can have on a program, both positively and negatively,” Dupuy said. “She’s going to take a huge role in educating the girls on how to use it. She’s very good with technology, creating graphics for recruiting services. Video-wise, she’s way ahead of the game in how she uses Synergy and how she breaks down film. She’ll wear a lot of different hats, but she’ll be good at them and embrace every single one of them.” Grayson is a Metairie native and the daughter of Allean Grayson and Alonzo Joseph.

Well into its sixth decade of service, 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 and approximately 4,200 student-athletes. Having commemorated its 50th anniversary in 2013, the Southland Conference has transformed itself into a dynamic and respected consortium of 13 member universities in three states. Beginning with a historic meeting of five institutions in Dallas on March 15, 1963, the Southland Conference set on an extraordinary course that has proven successful well into the 21st Century. The successful transformation continues, as the Southland Conference welcomed four additional members in 2013: Abilene Christian University, Houston Baptist University, the University of Incarnate Word in San Antonio, and the University of New Orleans. In addition to its newest members, the Southland also consists of the University of Central Arkansas, Lamar University, McNeese State University, Nicholls State University, Northwestern State University, Sam Houston State University, Southeastern Louisiana University, Stephen F. Austin State University and Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi. An original Southland member from 1963-73, Abilene Christian rejoined the league as one of the most decorated athletic programs in NCAA history, and the addition of Houston Baptist, UIW and New Orleans gives the Southland a regular competitive presence in the key metropolitan areas of Houston, San Antonio and New Orleans. Southland cities encompass approximately 14 million people, and six of its television markets rank among the top 100 in the U.S. All told, the membership of the Southland encompasses nearly 140,000 current students and an alumni base of nearly 800,000.

2016-17 IN REVIEW In some ways, the first year of the Jordan Dupuy era of Northwestern State women's basketball hearkened back to the Lady Demons' golden days. There were points aplenty and an up-tempo offense that often produced entertaining, high-scoring matchups. As with any program that goes through a coaching chage, there were the expected ups and downs. There also was, for the fifth straight season, a berth in the Southland Conference Tournament, extending the program's longest stretch in more than a decade. The Dupuy era got off to a scorching start as the Lady Demons posted the program's first 3-0 start since the 1997-98 season with victories against LeTourneau, LSU-Alexandria and Central Baptist. In those three wins, Northwestern State averaged 86.7 points per game, showing off Dupuy's preferred up-tempo, run-and-gun offensive style. It also portended good things to come inside Prather Coliseum, as Dupuy's squad continued the program's longtime run of success within their home arena. NSU went 12-4 at Prather, marking the fourth straight season the Lady Demon won at least 75 percent of their home games and the fifth straight winning season at home overall. As quick as the Lady Demons started, the grind of an early-season stretch of four games in seven days showed in the latter half of that span with NSU dropping a pair of games to No. 14 Texas and Mississippi Valley State. Following a Nov. 30 loss at Memphis, Northwestern State sat at .500 with five non-conference games remaining. The losing streak nearly hit four before senior guard Beatrice Attura delivered the first of a season full of memorable moments, scoring NSU's final eight points, including the game-winning 3-pointer with 22 seconds to play to edge state rival UL Monroe on Dec. 3. Seventeen days later, Attura etched her name in the Northwestern State history books when she became the 27th player in program history to notch 1,000 career points, doing so in a 113-65 romp against Louisiana College. The point total against the Wildcats was Northwestern State's highest output since posting 122 against Arkansas Baptist during the 1986-87 season. In between Attura's memorable pre-conference moments, sophomore post Cheyenne Brown asserted herself as an inside complement to Attura. Brown dominated Jackson State, turning in a double-double of 27 points and 12 rebounds in NSU's 83-65 victory, earning Brown her first Southland Conference and Louisiana Sports Writers Association Player of the Week honors. Thanks to the blowlout win against Louisiana College, the Lady Demons assured themselves of being above .500 when Southland Conference play started for the second straight season. The early start to the 18-game Southland Conference slate, which began on New Year's Eve against McNeese at Prather Coliseum, produced another memorable moment for Attura, who tallied a career-high 34 points in a scintillating offensive performance that included six 3-pointers. Despite Attura's heroics, the Lady Demons dropped the conference opener, putting added importance on a three-game road trip that carried NSU to defending conference regular-season co-champ and tournament winner Central Arkansas, Incarnate Word and Texas A&M-Corpus Christi in a five-day stretch. Following a loss at Central Arkansas, the Lady Demons produced perhaps their finest offensive start of conference play on Jan. 5 at Incarnate Word. NSU connected on 13 of its first 16 shots, scoring 31 first-quarter points and setting the tone for a 76-74 victory, NSU's first road win of the season.

The win against the Cardinals was not secure until Shahd Abboud hit a goahead 3-pointer with 1:31 to play and then secured the game-clinching rebound with a second remaining in the game. The late-game sequence capped Abboud's best game of the season (22 points, 4-of-6 3-point shooting) in a game where the Lady Demons were without their top two point guards, Sami Thomas and Gabby Bell, because of injury. As the Lady Demons began to slowly work their way back to full health, they began to exhitbit the ability to play markedly better in Prather Coliseum. Northwestern State posted four Southland Conference victories by at least 17 points at Prather in 2016-17 beginning with wins against Nicholls (75-58, Jan. 12) and Sam Houston State (78-51, Jan. 14). Those two victories coincided with the first two starts of freshman guard Nia Randall's career. Randall, who moved into the starting lineup after Thomas' injury, took her opportunity and ran with it, averaging 11.5 points in those two victories. While Attura and Brown handled the majority of the Lady Demons' scoring during conference play, the victory against Nicholls showcased a versatile lineup in which all five starters (Attura, Abboud, Brown, Randall and Tia Youngbllod) all scored in double figures, combining for all 75 points. In the victory against Sam Houston State, the Lady Demons unearthed a new weapon as Libba Gilliam connected on the first 3-pointer and first double-figure conference performance of her career. Once Gilliam found her range from the outside, she used it as an effective weapon, connecting on 10 of her final 18 3-point tries of the season. The home-road disparity meant the Lady Demons hovered around the .500 mark in conference play for much of the season. What it didn't stop was Attura's stellar scoring senior season. The Frisco, Texas, product and Dupuy's faster-moving offense meshed quickly with Attura becoming the team's top offensive option. In her lone season under Dupuy, Attura had 18 20-point games, including five games of 30 or more points. From Feb. 16-25, Attura scored at least 30 points in three of four games and added 27 in the other. The run was part of a season in which Attura established herself as one of the top scorers in Northwestern State's gilded women's basketball

history, averaging 20.6 points per game and setting a school single-season record with 88 3-pointers. The combination of Attura, Brown and Prather Coliseum's home-court advantage helped the Lady Demons right themselves after a three-game losing streak in late January. Buoyed by playing six of their final nine games at home, the Lady Demons extended their run of trips to the Southland Conference Tournament to five straight. Attura and Brown made history twice in a nine-day span, leading NSU to a pair of key Southland Conference victories in the process. In an 89-71 victory against Southeastern Louisiana on Feb. 16, Attura and Brown turned in twin 30-point performances, becoming the first set of Lady Demons' teammates to do so in the same game. The duo wasn't finished as they one-upped themselves with a pair of 34-point performances to spark a wild, 95-93 win against New Orleans on Feb. 25. The victory against the Privateers proved crucial for the Lady Demons returning to the conference tournament as NSU entered as the No. 8 seed, facing Texas A&M-Corpus Christi. Northwestern State's stay at the Merrell Center proved to be a short one as Attura and Brown combined for 32 points, but the Islanders were a deeper team, earning a 57-46 victory. Although the Lady Demons' season ended earlier than any it had played since 2012-13, Attura was recognized multiple times for her stellar senior season. She took home first-team All-Southland Conference and All-Louisiana honors, making it the third straight season for a Lady Demons player to pull off that feat. For all of her on-court success, Attura was equally as impressive in the classroom and was rewarded for that as well. In March, Attura made more program history. Combining her 3.92 grade point average with her on-court succees, Attura was named a first-team CoSIDA Academic All-American, the first Lady Demon basketball player to earn such an honor. Attura became the 15th student-athlete in school history to earn inclusion on any of the Academic All-American teams and the sixth first-team selection among them.

NORTHWESTERN STATE WOMEN’S BASKETBALL HISTORY

Since the first team took the court in 1908, the women’s basketball program at Northwestern State has always scored a lot of points and won a lot of games. Dating to the early 1970s, when little attention was given to women’s athletics in college, the Lady Demons were already drawing attention with winning records and postseason success. In fact, while women’s sports were not yet funded by the university budget, the Lady Demons earned a trip to the National Women’s Invitational Tournament in 1973, led by volunteer coach Lou Lewis Baxter, a physical education professor. Recognized officially (and funded) by the university for the 1974-75 season, the Lady Demons hit the court running, posting an 18-9 record under head coach Mary Jane Mayfield. In April 1975, Northwestern became the first university in Louisiana to issue full athletic scholarships to women, when NSU athletes Pat Nolen, Diane Pittman, Emma Ellerman, Louise “Do” Bonin, Sherrill Landry, Terri McDonnell, Inez Brew, Mona Davidson, Janie Wallace and Margaret Langford were the recipients. Tammy Primeaux and Lisa Brewer were high school seniors who accepted scholarships to play basketball for the Lady Demons. In 1974-75, the Lady Demons advanced to the Louisiana Association of Intercollegiate Athletics for Women basketball tournament, splitting four games with Southwestern Louisiana before moving onto the AIAW Region IV tournament. The Lady Demons repeated the accomplishment for the next three years under Charlotte Corley, posting a 14-13 record in state tournaments and an 8-8 mark in regional tournaments. While the Lady Demons were a powerful force in state women’s basketball under their first three coaches, it was under the leadership of Pat Nolen Pierson that the Lady Demons tasted their first bit of national recognition. After finishing her playing career with the Lady Demons and graduating with honors, she came within one game of claiming a state championship in her only year of high school coaching at her alma mater, Pitkin High School. She took over the Northwestern State program following that season, just 23 years old. During her nine years as head coach, the Lady Demons became a force on the national level as women’s basketball moved into the NCAA Division I mainstream around the country after playing in the Association of Intercollegiate Athletics for

Women in the 1970s. A formidable partnership was created when Pierson hired James Smith as assistant coach in 1980. He was responsible for installing the Lady Demons’ trademark fast-break offense. The Pierson-Smith tandem won 71 percent of their games (135-56) in their seven years together. During those years, Northwestern State became a fixture in the national top 10 scoring rankings. That attack appealed to top athletes like Lonnie Banks, Teressa Thomas, Annie Harris, Linda Grayson and Sandy Pugh, highly recruited prep stars who became Lady Demon greats. The Lady Demons won three straight Gulf Star Conference championships (1984-86), receiving votes for the AP Top 20 each year. The 1985-86 squad made the biggest breakthrough, setting a single season record for victories and becoming the first Northwestern State team to participate in postseason play at the NCAA Division I level. That team, led by Thomas, Banks and Harris, stunned 1985 NCAA Final Four entry Northeast Louisiana (ranked No. 4 in USA Today Top 25) 86-83 on Jan. 30, 1986. Northwestern State had a 20-point halftime lead and held off a rally as Harris ripped in 37 points and Thomas pumped in 25 more to go along with eight assists and Banks, at 5-foot-5, snagged 14 rebounds. A pair of late-season road losses at Southeastern Louisiana and Sam Houston probably kept the Lady Demons out of the 32-team NCAA Tournament. However, the NWIT issued an invitation to Northwestern State and it was well received on both ends. By the end of the NWIT in Amarillo, Texas, the Lady Demons had won over the local crowd and nearly won the tournament title. Seeded sixth, Northwestern State topped Tennessee Tech, 77-71, and squeaked by Duke, 89-88, on a last-second jumper by Harris to reach the championship contest. As a crowd of 2,600 Texans cheered wildly “on another night in Lady Demon Land,” as the local newspaper put it, Northwestern battled to the last minute before falling 100-91 to Idaho. Thomas and Harris were All-Tournament picks. Thomas had a national record 19 assists in an 88-77 win over Mississippi College earlier in her senior year. The Lady Demons won a fourth straight conference title in 1986-87 with a win over Southwest Texas, sharing the title with Stephen F. Austin. Sandy Pugh was named conference MVP, the first time a Lady Demon picked up that honor.

NSU’s all-time leading rebounder, Joskeen Garner

At the end of the 1987 campaign, Pierson made a difficult decision and left Northwestern to rejuvenate the women’s basketball program at East Carolina. It was an easy decision, however, to elevate Smith to the head coaching position. In 17 years, he took the program to even greater heights while surpassing Pierson as the alltime winningest coach in Lady Demon history during the 1995-96 season. Senior Linda Grayson combined with junior college transfer Pam Hudson to lead another landmark year for the Lady Demons in 1988-89. Smith’s second team knocked off No. 11 Stephen F. Austin, 78-76, and earned an at-large invitation to the NCAA Tournament. In 1989-90, the program took another huge step forward when Hudson won the Division I rebounding title (15.2 rpg), finished second in the scoring race (28.4 ppg) and rewrote school and Southland Conference records on the way to becoming the first major college All-American in Northwestern State basketball history. She was a second-team pick on the Basketball Writers of America team and a honorable mention Kodak All-American. In 1993, the Lady Demons posted another winning campaign (24-8) with a freshman nucleus led by Joskeen Garner, the Southland Conference Freshman of the Year and a first team All-SLC pick. Northwestern State accepted a bid to the NWIT and claimed the consolation championship (third place). The 1993-94 Lady Demons posted their 15th consecutive winning season with a 20-8 record as Garner was the nation’s second leading rebounder (13.8 rpg) and named Louisiana’s Co-Player of the Year with Pam Thomas of Louisiana Tech. Northwestern State posted its fourth consecutive 20-win season en route to a record-tying 25-7 record in 1994-95. The Lady Demons captured their first Southland Conference championship, finishing league play with a 16-2 record. Northwestern State lost to SFA in the tournament championship game, but accepted a bid to the NWIT for the second time in three years. The seventh-seeded Lady Demons were the surprise team in Amarillo, Texas. Northwestern State opened with an 80-64 win over Clemson. They followed with a 103-93

win over Notre Dame in a semifinal shootout before losing a hard-fought battle against Texas A&M in the finals, 85-81. Joskeen Garner became the first Lady Demon since Pam Hudson to earn All-American honors, being named to the Associated Press Honorable Mention All-American team. The Lady Demons again posted impressive numbers in 1995-96 while posting their 17th straight winning season, one win shy of a fifth straight 20-win season. Northwestern State went through a rebuilding process in 1996-97 but found a star in Judy Clark, named Southland Conference Freshman of the Year. The 1998-99 squad put their stamp on the the Lady Demons record books. The team reeled off 13 straight wins from Dec. 20, 1998 to Feb. 6, 1999, a new Lady Demons record and finished the year with a 22-7 overall record. Clark added another piece of hardware to her trophy case, as she was selected Southland Conference Player of the Year. The Southland Conference regular season champions lost to Stephen F. Austin in the tournament finals, but once again were invited to the WNIT, the third time in six years for NSU. In a new format, the Lady Demons lost in the first round on the road against Arkansas. In 1999-00, the Lady Demons (24-6) notched an .800 winning percentage, the best in school history. The Lady Demons also had the third-most wins in school history. The 1999-00 season did end in disappointment, however, as the Lady Demons failed to earn a bid to the NCAA tournament despite a higher RPI ranking than several teams that were offered bids. The 2000-01 team led by Kia Converse rolled off a school-record 15 straight wins from Jan. 1 to March 8, finishing the season with a mark of 23-7. The Lady Demons advanced to the tournament finals, only to lose to SFA. Converse became the SLC’s all-time best 3-point shooter with 218 career 3s. The 2003-04 team looked loaded in what turned out to be coach Smith’s final season, and the pieces fell into place. The Lady Demons rolled through the SLC season

with a 14-2 mark, including an 11-0 start. The team finished 24-7, tying for the second-most wins in a season while winning the SLC regular-season and tournament crowns, advancing to the second NCAA Tournament in school history. Cooda Dobin became NSU’s career assist leader with 921. She also became the first player in NCAA history, men or women, to lead the nation in assists per game for three straight seasons. She was featured in the NCAA Final Four official program. Dobin later returned to the Lady Demon program as an assistant coach for the 2011-12 season. On Sept. 1, 2004, the torch was passed. Smith stepped down as head coach and Lady Demon player and assistant coach Jennifer Graf, after being groomed by her mentor for the last two seasons, took over as head coach. Graf stepped down at NSU after accumulating more than 100 wins for the Lady Demons at the conclusion of the 2011-12 season, and on Apr. 4, 2012, the first set of co-head coaches in program history was hired. Brooke Stoehr, who started at point guard for rival Louisiana Tech from 2000-02, was hired from Texas Tech with her husband, Scott. The two immediately saw success after doubling the program’s win total in just a year and taking NSU to its third NCAA tournament after an SLC Tourney championship in 2014. The 2013-14 season was much like the days of old with a 20-win season, its first since 2004, and one team standing between NSU and the big dance, Stephen F. Austin. The Lady Demons downed the Ladyjacks 62-44 on March 16 to claim the second league tournament title in school history which led to Brooke and Scott Stoehr capturing the Louisiana Sports Writers Association Coaches of the Year Award. The Stoehrs added to their legacy in March 2015, leading Northwestern State to a second straight Southland Conference Tournament championship and a return trip to the NCAA Tournament. NSU’s appearance against Baylor marked the first time in program history it had reached consecutive NCAA Tournaments. Behind two-time All-Louisiana first-teamer Janelle Perez, who ended her stellar Lady Demons career in the top 10 in numerous career categories, NSU made its Women’s Basketball Invitational debut in 2016. Perez, meanwhile, left NSU as the school’s all-time 3-point leader, canning 241 career 3s. The first three-year run of postseason play capped the Stoehrs’ time in Natchitoches, leaving for Louisiana Tech after the 2015-16 season. Jordan Dupuy, the newest Lady Demons coach, begins his run in 2016-16 promising to re-establish a high-tempo offense that long was a NSU staple. Dupuy's inagural season produced a program first as senior guard Beatrice Attura earned first-team CoSIDA Academic All-American honors. Attura, who left as the school's single-season 3-point record holder (88), added first-team All-Louisiana and All-Southland Conference honors in her final Lady Demons campaign. Four Lady Demons have had their jerseys retired after great careers. Hanging in the rafters of Prather Coliseum, alongside the many championship banners, are Pam Hudson’s No. 45, Linda Grayson’s No. 33, Lonnie Banks’ No. 10, and Teressa Thomas’ No. 25. It’s a safe bet, looking at the fast track record of success for Lady Demons hoops, that more banners will be raised soon.

PRATHER COLISEUM Perhaps the toughest arena to play in the Southland Conference, Prather Coliseum is now in its sixth decade of hosting Northwestern State basketball and is named after H. Lee Prather, the all-time winningest coach in Demon Basketball history. The 3,400-seat multi-purpose facility was constructed in 1963 and sits on the banks of Chaplin’s Lake, just south of Turpin Stadium. The coliseum houses offices for men’s and women’s basketball, volleyball, soccer, the NSU news bureau, sports information, compliance, athletic facilities and vice president of external affairs offices. The arena was given a major facelift before the 2012-13 season with the addition of a permanent wood floor that fits three basketball courts, attractive new courtside purple seating that includes end-zone bleachers and new interior signage and banners.

Dr. Chris Maggio

Northwestern State President

Chris Maggio is a competitor for all seasons. Northwestern State’s new president was an all-sports athlete in high school, a college distance runner at NSU, and a high school football, basketball and track coach. He became a college coach in track and field for the Demons and Lady Demons. He even spent a few years as a high school basketball referee. Today, you can find him making early-morning runs, and you might see him on the tennis courts. He’s made memorable putts in scramble tournaments at Demon Hills Golf Course. His zeal for competition makes him a dynamic recruiter and fund raiser for NSU, and his ability to mentor staff U N I V E R S I T Y A D M I N I S T R AT I O N members and students comPresident: bined with his warmth and . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Dr. Darlene Williams as acting president of Northwestern State effective January 1, and named to the position permanently May 4 after a national search. He succeeded Dr. Jim Henderson, whose dynamic tenure spearheaded significant growth and achievement in two years as president. Henderson moved up to run the University of Louisiana System, which includes Northwestern and eight other state universities. Maggio, 53, is a lifelong resident of Natchitoches and long-time faculty and staff member at Northwestern State. He is the university’s 19th president since its founding in 1884, and the first one who is homegrown, along with the first to be a four-year athletic letterwinner as a Demon competitor. Maggio was named vice president for the student experience at Northwestern State last September after serving as interim vice president for just over a year. He maintained his role as vice president for the student experience while serving as acting president. When the NSU Student Services building opened a couple of years ago, designers had a lovely office location for Maggio on the second floor. He asked instead for the room just inside the front door to the building, not connected to any administrative wing, but envisioned as a conference space. His reasoning: Maggio wanted to see everybody who walked in the door, and providing the ability to immediately engage them or at least be easily accessible for anyone who needed help. As vice president, Maggio led the Dean of Students and the Offices of Admissions, Recruiting, Financial Aid, Student Activities and Organizations, First Year Experience and Leadership Development, Judicial Services, Counseling and Career Services, Student Life, the Student Activities Board, Student Government Association, Student Support Services, and Greek Life. Northwestern State has recorded enrollment increases for the past two years, including a school-record number of 10,572 students in the Fall 2017 semester. That mark comes one year after Maggio and his staff helped deliver a 7-percent increase from the Fall 2015 semester to the Fall 2016 term. Maggio served as assistant vice president of external affairs for university ad-

vancement from 2013 until 2015, when he was promoted by Dr. Henderson. He has been a staff member at Northwestern State since 1988, when he joined the track and field coaching staff. After several years as director of admissions and recruiting during record-setting enrollment for NSU, Maggio was selected as director of alumni affairs in 1999, director of alumni and development in 2003, executive director of the NSU Foundation in 2005 and Dean of Students and assistant provost for student success in 2007. During his career at NSU, Maggio also served as director of enrollment services. Under Maggio’s leadership, the NSU Foundation completed its first capital campaign in Northwestern’s history, exceeding a campaign goal of $18.84 million and raising $31 million to support the university. He has also been a faculty member in the Department of Health and Human Performance for more than 20 years as an instructor, assistant professor and associate professor. Maggio came on board the NSU staff in 1988 as assistant track and field coach, then became head women’s coach a year later. After a very successful five years in that capacity, in 1994 Maggio moved into administration as the fundraiser for NSU Athletics before quickly being snapped up to become the university’s director of admissions and recruiting. Maggio is a 1985 summa cum laude graduate of Northwestern State. He won Gulf Star Conference All-Academic honors in track and field and helped the Demons win the 1985 GSC championship. As a senior, he was elected Mr. NSU by his fellow students. Maggio earned his master’s of education at NSU. He received a doctorate in developmental education from Grambling State University. His parents helped run a family business in Natchitoches. His father, Buddy, was honored as a “Natchitoches Treasure” in 2015 by the City of Natchitoches. As a young boy, Maggio became playmates with future Basketball Hall of Fame member Joe Dumars, whose home was near one of the Maggio’s stores. Dr. Maggio’s wife, Jennifer, was formerly on the NSU staff as Coordinator of Adult Education Initiatives. They have three children, Melanie, Scott, and Emily. Emily is a high school student at St. Mary’s Catholic School of Natchitoches, while her older siblings attend other colleges.

Jerry Pierce

Vice President • External Affairs Only a couple of people have served Northwestern State as long as alumnus Jerry Pierce has, and nobody has done so in a more understated manner. In his 52nd year on the university’s staff, Pierce’s impact on NSU and the city of Natchitoches is indelible. He’s never wanted or gotten top billing, but consistently, he gets results to benefit the university. He is in his 27th year as vice president of external affairs at Northwestern. A significant aspect of his job is oversight of intercollegiate athletics. Pierce works closely with athletic director Greg Burke and all NSU coaches and staff members to keep Northwestern athletics competing at a championship level week after week, month after month and year after year. Pierce, an avid tennis player, has been a member of USTA teams that have won more than a dozen state championships, five regional titles and one national championship. Well before moving into the executive position, Pierce had already served his alma mater, adopted hometown and state with distinction. In his role as vice president, he NSU Athletic Council oversees university operations in athletics, alumni and development, public and media relations and assists President Dr. Chris Maggio in governJody Biscoe (Chair) mental affairs activities. Many of those duties were his since the 1970s as Hall Adams Kwan Adkins (Student-Athlete) he worked under six previous presidents as Northwestern advanced from Angela Bolton NAIA to NCAA College Division to NCAA Division I athletic status in 1977. Sid Hall A 1961 graduate of Northwestern, Pierce served as trainer/manager Aaron Johnson for the Demon football team during his college years, working closely with Damon Jones legendary coach Jack Clayton. After earning his journalism degree, Pierce Dr. Theresa Kyzar went to work for the New Orleans Times Picayune, serving as a reporter Lori LeBlanc and editor. He was named executive sports editor at the age of 24. Chris Lyles In 1965, he chose to raise his two sons in Natchitoches and returned Jacqueline Manza to NSU as sports information director. He was promoted to news bureau di(Student-Athlete) rector two years later and assumed additional responsibilities in athletics, Dr. Jim Mischler alumni affairs and other areas through the years. Christie Price He created, in 1972, the Louisiana Sports Hall of Fame facility in Ex-Officio Members Greg Burke Prather Coliseum on the NSU campus, providing a home for an entity Jasmine Chievous founded by the Louisiana Sports Writers Association in 1958. He estabDustin Eubanks lished annual induction activities that remain in place nearly five decades Roxanne Freeman later, serving as director of the Hall for 19 years until his promotion to vice Dr. Chris Maggio president in April 1990 forced him to step aside from the volunteer post. Dr. Patrice Moulton He helped guide Northwestern into three athletic conferences (Trans Dr. Vicki Parrish America, 1979; Gulf Star, 1983; Southland, 1987) and NCAA Division I staJerry Pierce tus in 1977. He is a past president of the Southland and has served the conference through other offices and committee positions. In 1994, he was named one of Louisiana’s 20 most influential sports figures by the Times-Picayune. Also on the list were New Orleans Saints owner Tom Benson, LSU athletic director Joe Dean and basketball coach Dale Brown, and Grambling football coaching legend Eddie Robinson. His salesmanship and managerial skills were instrumental in convincing Tri-Star Productions to film the 1989 smash hit movie “Steel Magnolias,” with an all-star cast including Julia Roberts, Sally Field and Dylan McDermott in Natchitoches and on the NSU campus. The movie’s impact on tourism in Natchitoches continues to resonate nearly three decades later. Pierce is regarded as one of the most effective legislative liaisons for Louisiana’s higher education system. He has been also a master of ceremonies and speaker who has enlivened hundreds of events since 1965. In addition to his administrative responsibilities, Pierce is a tenured member of the Journalism Department faculty. He is the author of one book and editor of two others and has written thousands of editorials, columns, features and other articles for newspapers and magazines. Pierce and his wife Regina, a retired teacher and also a tennis buff, live on Cane River Lake in Natchitoches. He has two sons, Randy and Rick, both NSU graduates; three grandchildren, twins Evan and Amanda, 28, and Miranda, 17; and two great-grandchildren; he has two adult stepchildren, Nicholas and Natalie. He’s a doting “Poppy” to Natalie’s preschool daughters.

Greg Burke

Director of Athletics The Burke File

AGE: 61 (Born Oct. 22, 1956) • HOMETOWN: Alliance, Ohio • HIGH SCHOOL: Marlington ’74 • COLLEGE: Mt. Union ’78 (cum laude) POSTGRADUATE: Kent State ’86 • BEFORE HE WAS A.D.: Sports writer, Alliance (Ohio) Review, 1972-78; director of news and sports information, Hiram (Ohio) College, 1978-85; administrative intern, NSU athletics, 1985-86; director, NSU Athletic Association, 1986-92; director of athletic development, University of Akron, 1992-96; director of athletics, Northwestern State, 1996-present. BIG FAN OF: Cleveland Browns, Indians and Cavaliers • INTERESTS: Working out, watching ESPN and VH1 Classic, family outings.

Beginning his 22nd year as director of athletics at Northwestern State, Greg Burke is highly regarded far past the 318 area code due to the work he’s done in his adopted hometown. Burke, a native Ohioan and avid fan of all Cleveland pro sports teams, has been the Demons’ athletics director since Aug. 29, 1996, when his first day included speaking at the annual NSU/ Independence Bowl Kickoff Luncheon. Burke is the longest serving AD at any Louisiana or Southland Conference institution, and is believed to be the longest-serving AD in state history. He has steered NSU athletics to many of its greatest accomplishments while overseeing a program that has fielded championship caliber teams in a dozen of the school’s 14 NCAA Division I sports. Highlights in Burke’s two decades as athletic director include 41 Southland Conference regular-season or tournament championships, 68 All-America and Academic All-America student athletes, and three U.S. Olympic competitors. Twenty-five NSU teams have taken part in NCAA or other postseason competition. All of the school’s athletic facilities have undergone over $7 million in improvements in the past few years, with another $1 million of enhancements to Turpin Stadium’s video board and sound system due before the 2017 home opener. Burke spearheaded a $2 million series of sponsorships for new scoreboards installed for 2008-09 at all NSU athletic venues; the $700,000 Second Century Circle fencing project for athletic venues; a $500,000 softball grandstand project; and a $600,000 upgrade of chairback seating at Turpin Stadium for the 2016 football season. Fundraising initiatives reached new levels in 2015-16. Formalizing the endowed giving program, branded as “Perpetually Purple,” generated an influx of over $100,000, while overall revenue generated by donations and sponsorships cracked $2 million. Competitively, milestones continue. One of the biggest under Burke: NSU in 2004-05 became the first (and remains the only) Southland Conference member in the league’s five decades of history to sweep football, men’s basketball and baseball championships in the same athletic year. It’s been done only once in Southeastern Conference history, by Alabama in 1933-34, and only four times in Big Ten Conference history, the last time by Michigan State in 1979-80. Those accomplishments have come with one of the more modest athletic budgets in the state and conference. Burke’s management skill and fundraising ability have been pivotal. Burke has a remarkable ability to hire dynamic head coaches. Anchors of the department are current head coaches Mike McConathy, Louisiana’s all-time career basketball wins leader; softball coach Donald Pickett, and track and field coach Mike Heimerman, a trio with nearly 50 combined years on staff at NSU. Three former student-athletes in Burke’s tenure have become NSU head coaches, including second-year baseball coach Bobby Barbier. Numerous Burke hires had great success at Northwestern State that propelled them to national prominence in subsequent positions. Former baseball coach John Cohen is beginning his first full year as AD at Mississippi State. Over 100 more former NSU student-athletes, coaches and support staff members, most of them here with Burke as AD or assistant AD (1986-92), are working in college athletics at some level. Former Demons are head coaches in the SEC, Big XII, Mountain West Conference, Conference USA, Ohio Valley, SWAC, and Southland Conference. Five others hold Associate AD positions in the SEC, PAC 12, and American Athletic conferences. Former Burke lieutenants Todd Garzarelli (Wisconsin-Whitewhater), Jason Horn (Xavier-NO) and Adam Jonson (LSU Alexandria) are now athletics directors, while Kurt Gulbrand is senior associate AD for development at Tennessee and Jodie Libadisos is associate AD for student-athlete enhancement at South Florida. From his first day on the job, Burke has stressed the importance of having a balanced athletic program. Tremendous competitive strides have been made in women’s athletics under his guidance. Just in the past four years, Lady Demon basketball (2014, 2015), softball (2013, 2014), tennis (2013, 2015) and volleyball (2015) have reached NCAA Tournaments. Burke established a high standard for NSU Athletics in academic achievement and community service. The academic accomplishments are reflected annually in the NCAA’s APR and GSR studies. Community service by NSU student-athletes, coaches and staff more than doubled to over 5,000 hours in 2009-10 and has remained at that level. The Southland Conference created the “Southland Strong” Community Service award to recognize the member institution whose student-athletes compile the most service hours each year. NSU won the inaugural prize in 2014-15 and was second in 2015-16.

Burke spearheaded the adoption of the slogan “Great Tradition, Brighter Future” for NSU Athletics, and the creation of NSU Athletics “Cornerstones” for student-athletes: “Academic Achievement, Personal Responsibility, Competitive Success … Every Minute, Every Hour, Every Day!” During Feb. 2013, he was presented the “Outstanding Contributions to Amateur Football Award” by the North Louisiana chapter of the National Football Foundation and College Football Hall of Fame. Six years ago, he was included among 29 winners of the Under Amour AD of the Year Award presented by the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA). Burke was the 2010-11 president of the Football Championship Subdivision Athletics Directors Association. He serves on the NCAA Committee on Academics, a 20-person group replacing the Committee on Academic Performance, which included Burke. He also has served on the NCAA Championships/Sports Management Cabinet. Burke previously served a four-year term on the NCAA Division I Football Issues Committee (1999-2002) and concurrently served a term on the eight-member NCAA FCS Committee that administers the national playoffs. He has served as a site supervisor for Football Championship Subdivision playoff games across the nation, and he is regarded as one of the country’s premiere advocates of FCS football. In 2005, Burke was one of three recipients of the All-America Football Foundation’s Gen. Robert R. Neyland Outstanding Athletic Director Award and that same year, was also tabbed as one of two Natchitoches Parish Cenla Newsmakers of 2005 by the Alexandria Town Talk newspaper’s editorial staff. He received the 2006 “Outstanding Alumni Award” from his alma mater, Marlington High School in Alliance, Ohio, recognizing his community service and professional achievements. At the time, Burke became one of only 21 alumni honored since the award was instituted in 1982. Burke serves on the Natchitoches Convention and Visitors Bureau board, and on the board of directors for the Central Louisiana Community Foundation. He is a past president of the Natchitoches Kiwanis Club and remains active in that civic group. He has also been part of the steering committee for the Natchitoches Christmas Festival and is a former member of the Natchitoches Area Jaycees. He has been involved with the American Heart Association and was 2010 March of Dimes chairman locally. His wife, Susu, is a Natchitoches native, NSU graduate and an elementary teacher. Their 23-year-old daughter, Catherine, graduated from St. Mary’s Catholic School in May of 2012 and is in graduate school at UL Lafayette after earning her undergraduate degree from Louisiana Tech.
