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.

2020 NORTHWESTERN STATE SOCCER MEDIA GUIDE

After a 2018 season in which Northwestern State wanted to build off positive vibes of making the Southland Conference Tournament in co-head coaches Jess and Anna Jobes’ inaugural season, the Lady Demons struggled to an 0-5 start with a roster featuring 14 newcomers and eight returners who were sophomores. But the second-youngest roster in the nation didn’t flinch, reeling off five straight wins and propelling themselves to the No. 2 seed in the Southland Conference Tournament and a berth in the finals. The 13 wins is the second-most in program history and tops since the 2005 Lady Demons won 13 matches en route to an SLC Tournament championship and NCAA Tournament appearance. The tournament field expanded to eight teams three seasons ago, but the Jobes led the Lady Demons to consecutive postseasons for the first time since NSU had a string of postseasons from 2002-08. NSU turned the corner in league play, posting an 8-2-1 mark before winning a pair of tournament games in reaching the finals for the fifth time in school history. Defense was a cornerstone led by NSU’s first Southland Conference Defensive Player of the Year in sophomore Nicole Henry. NSU posted a 1.27 goals against average, the program’s best since 2009. Henry led an underclassmen back line that included freshman Hallie Field and sophomore Natalee Henry with sophomore Kalee Williams, freshman Samantha Hanking and junior Ashley Medawattage playing various roles. The Henry twins were first and second-team All-Southland Conference, respectively, while Field and sophomore forward Jalen Donaldson made the league’s third team. Donaldson produced four goals and two assists. Nicole Henry added to her honors with first-team All-Louisiana status, while Natalee Henry and Donaldson were honorable mention. The goalkeeping tandem of sophomore Acelya Aydogmus and senior Kayla Bomben proved effective. Aydogmus was the team’s primary keeper by season’s end starting all three SLC tournament games, including pitching two of her six shutouts this season, which is one short of the program record. Bomben actually had the better GAA (0.99), the Aydogmus, the Troy transfer, strengthened her grip on the position with four straight shutouts leading to the conference tournament finals. Freshman Olivia Draguicevich led the team with six goals, including four game-winners. Draguicevich scored the decider in games such as an OT win vs. UL Lafayette, the tournament semifinals vs. McNeese and a win at Incarnate Word. NSU knocked off SFA to start league play, the team’s first win against the Ladyjacks since 2002. The Lady Demons also handed champion Lamar its only loss and tied third-place Abilene Christian on the road. The Lady Demons lose just two seniors who played in Bomben and academic all-district honoree Jayden Wheeler.

Dr. Chris Maggio

Northwestern State President Chris Maggio is a competitor for all seasons. Northwestern State’s fourth-year 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. His zeal for competition makes him a dynamic recruiter and fund raiser for NSU, and his ability to mentor staff members and students combines with his warmth and sincerity to produce a tremendously effective university administrator.

Dr. Darlene Williams 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, 56, 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 in 2016 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 three 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 four years, with record numbers in 2017-18, peaked by 11,081 in the fall 2018 semester. Maggio served as assistant vice president of external affairs for university advancement 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.

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 55th 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 29th 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. During NSU’s 2018 Homecoming celebration, Pierce was honored at the N-Club Hall of Fame ceremony, becoming only the second person to receive the “Leadership Award” from the organization of former Northwestern athletic letterwinners. 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 NSU Athletic Council one national championship. Jody Biscoe (Chair) Well before moving into the executive position, Pierce had already Dr. Landon Amberg Katrice Below served his alma mater, adopted hometown and state with distinction. In Maggie Black (Student-Athlete) his role as vice president, he oversees university operations in athletics, Steven Boyd alumni and development, public and media relations and assists President Scott Burrell Dr. Chris Maggio in governmental affairs activities.

Dr. Terrie Poehl A 1961 graduate of Northwestern, Pierce served as trainer/manager Randi Washington Brian White (Student-Athlete) for the Demon football team during his college years, working closely with legendary coach Jack Clayton. After earning his journalism degree, Pierce Ramona Wynder went to work for the New Orleans Times Picayune, serving as a reporter Ex-Officio Members Greg Burke and editor. He was named executive sports editor at the age of 24. Dustin Eubanks In 1965, he chose to raise his two sons in Natchitoches and returned Roxanne Freeman to NSU as sports information director.

Dr. Patrice Moulton He created, in 1972, the Louisiana Sports Hall of Fame facility in Dr. Vicki Parrish Prather Coliseum on the NSU campus, providing a home for an entity Jerry Pierce founded by the Louisiana Sports Writers Association in 1958. He estabDr. Haley Taitano lished annual induction activities that remain in place nearly five decades later, serving as director of the Hall for 19 years until his promotion to vice president in April 1990 forced him to step aside from the volunteer post. He helped guide Northwestern into three athletic conferences (Trans America, 1979; Gulf Star, 1983; Southland, 1987) and NCAA Division I status 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.

Greg Burke

Director of Athletics The Burke File

AGE: 64 (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.

In a quarter century at the helm of the Northwestern State Athletic Department, 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 1996. 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 most of the school’s 14 NCAA Division I sports. Highlights in Burke’s two-plus decades as athletic director include 42 Southland Conference regular-season or tournament championships, 75 All-America and Academic All-America student athletes, and three U.S. Olympic competitors. Twenty-six NSU teams have participated in NCAA or other postseason competition. The athletic program’s $10 million “Victorious” facility campaign has resulted in $1.7 million of construction and updates to the baseball, softball, football, soccer, and track complexes in the past year. Updates are also visible in the Athletic Fieldhouse and at Prather Coliseum, including a new interactive N-Club Hall of Fame display. The “crown jewel” of the campaign will be a $3.5 million strength and conditioning center that will also include significant updates to the department’s sports medicine areas. These completed projects come on the heels of the addition of a $1 million video board and $600,000 chairback seating upgrade at Turpin Stadium made possible through private gifts and sponsorships in the past three years. Fundraising initiatives reached new levels in 2018-19 through increased giving to the Demons Unlimited Foundation that exceeded $2.5 million in restricted and unrestricted gifts, as well as to the “Perpetually Purple” endowment program. The athletic department also recently signed an exclusive multi-media rights agreement with Peak Sports Management. Competitively, one of the biggest achievements 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. 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. Since 2013, Lady Demon basketball (2014, 2015), softball (2013, 2014), tennis (2013, 2015), volleyball (2015) and baseball (2018) have reached NCAA Tournaments. Most recently, Jasmyn Steels had arguably the best year in Southland Conference history for a female track and female athlete by winning the long jump title at the NCAA Division I Indoor Championships and finishing second at the NCAA outdoor meet. 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 over 50 combined years on staff at NSU. Three former student-athletes in Burke’s tenure have become NSU head coaches, including fourth-year baseball coach Bobby Barbier, who guided the Demons to the 2018 NCAA Regionals after winning the first conference tourney title in school history. Numerous Burke coaching and staff hires have had great success at Northwestern State that propelled them to national prominence in subsequent positions. Over 100 former NSU studentathletes, 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 12 Division I conferences - SEC, Big XII, ACC, MWC, Conference USA, Sun Belt, Ohio Valley, Big Sky, Patriot, Southern, SWAC, and Southland – as well as several others at the Division II and NAIA levels. Former Burke lieutenants Todd Garzarelli (Indiana University Pennsylvania), Jason Horn (Xavier-NO) and Adam Jonson (LSU Alexandria) are now athletics directors. OthersBurke proteges include Tommy McClelland (athletic director at Louisiana Tech), Roman Banks (athletic director at Southern University), Kurt Gulbrand (senior associate AD for development at Tennessee), Jodie Libadisos (associate AD for student-athlete enhancement at South Florida), and Dennis Kalina (deputy athletic director at Binghamton). Burke has 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 and engagement outreach by NSU student-athletes, coaches and staff totaled nearly 7,000 more for the 2018-19 year. NSU was the inaugural winner and has twice been runner-up for The Southland Conference’s “Southland Strong” Community Service since its inception five years ago. NSU has also had the most Southland Conference “Steve McCarty Citizenship Award” honorees since that award’s inception in 2008. 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!” In February 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. In 2010, 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. 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. Burke’s NCAA committee service has included terms on the NCAA Committee on Academics and Championships/Sports Management Cabinet. He previously served a term on the NCAA Division I Football Issues Committee (1999-2002) and concurrently served on the eight-member NCAA FCS Committee that administers the national playoffs. He begins a five-year term on the NCAA Women’s Basketball Committee in 2020. Burke is a member of the Natchitoches Convention and Visitors Bureau board, and on the board of directors for the Central Louisiana Community Foundation. He is 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 daughter Catherine graduated from St. Mary’s Catholic School in May of 2012 and completed her graduate studies at UL Lafayette in December 2019 after earning her undergraduate degree from Louisiana Tech. She began a career in public relations and marketing in May 2018. She and Joseph Faucheaux of Natchitoches were married in July 2020.
