Julie Goodenough is at the start of her 20th season as a collegiate head coach and second at the helm of the Abilene Christian women’s basketball team. The Haskell native became ACU’s sixth head coach after being hired March 27, 2012. Goodenough flipped the Wildcats’ fortunes during her first season, transforming a program hindered by consecutive losing seasons into conference champions. With many of the same players coming back from a 12-14 season in 2011-12, Goodenough maximized her roster’s talents as the Wildcats went on to share the Lone Star Conference regular-season title with Midwestern State at 16-4. Picked to finish seventh in the LSC, ACU instead finished with an overall mark of 21-7, the program’s first 20-win season since 2004-05. The Wildcats also earned their 12th appearance in the NCAA Division II South Central Region Tournament and first since 2008-09. The 21 wins represented ACU’s highest win total since the 1998-99 team won 24 games, and on Jan. 15, 2013 vs. Incarnate Word, Goodenough won her 300th game as a collegiate head coach as the Wildcats beat the Cardinals, 76-65. Goodenough’s efforts earned her co-Coach of the Year honors from the Lone Star Conference, making her the sixth Wildcat coach in ACU’s LSC era – Burl McCoy (198283, 1984-85 and 1985-86), Suzanne Fox (1995-96), Wayne Williams (1997-98), and Shawna Lavender (2007-08) – to earn this prestigious honor. Several of Goodenough’s players made all-conference with junior guard Mackenzie Lankford being tabbed to the league’s first team for the third straight year. Junior forward Renata Marquez was voted second team and senior center Kelsey Smith was named honorable mention. Point guard Whitney West was voted the league’s Freshman of the Year. Lankford became only the third Wildcat to earn three consecutive all-region honors, joining Melanie Carter and Audrey Maxwell-Lively on the short list. The Weatherford, Texas, native received second team honors following her freshman and junior years and a first team citation as a sophomore. As a team, Goodenough’s Wildcats ranked 12th nationally in scoring offense (74.8 points per game) as they averaged the seventh-most 3-point field goals per game with 8.4. ACU also possessed one of the best defenses in Division II, ranking 16th in scoring margin (12.7) and 23rd in field goal percentage defense (.353). Opponents struggled year-round from beyond the arc, as the Wildcats boasted the third best 3-point field goal defense (.249). A graduate of Texas-Arlington, Goodenough was the head coach at Hardin-Simmons University from 1993-2002 before going to Oklahoma State for three seasons. She was then the head coach at NCAA Division I Charleston Southern from 2006-12. In her 19 seasons as a head coach, Goodenough is 310-227 (.577) with 188 of those wins coming in her nine seasons at HSU. She was 23-61 in a short, three-year stint at Oklahoma State and 78-105 in six seasons at Charleston Southern. However, during her time as the Buccaneers’ head coach, she has posted two of only four winning seasons in the program’s history, which dates back to the 1976-77 season. In fact, before Goodenough took over the CSU program, the Buccaneers had only two winning seasons from 1976-2006, and had endured two winless seasons at the NCAA level. She is 48-45 in her last three seasons at CSU and took the Buccaneers to play at Minnesota in late March in the Women’s Basketball Invitation (WBI) Tournament. Also, she led the Buccaneers to the semifinals of the Big South Conference Tournament in 2011-12, only the second time the Bucs have gone that far in the conference tournament. At Oklahoma State, Goodenough recruited and coached the Big 12 Newcomer of the

2013-14 ACU WILDCAT WOMEN’S BASKETBALL

Year (Nina Stone, currently a college coach, after a brief stint playing professionally in Europe), and posted the 19th best recruiting class in the country in her first full season. Five of the top 10 largest home crowds in school history occurred during Goodenough’s tenure, including the largest crowd to ever watch a home women’s basketball contest. Goodenough was inducted into the HSU Sports Hall of Fame in 2007 after guiding the Cowgirls to a 188-54 record in her nine seasons there, leaving as the winningest coach in school history. Her last four teams advanced to at least the NCAA Division III Sweet 16 and also coached her team to the NAIA national tournament in her first two seasons. She captured seven Trans-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association or American Southwest Conference titles. She also recruited quality student-athletes as her last seven teams were named to the Women’s Basketball Coaches Association Honor Roll as one of the top 25 teams in grade-point average in the nation. She coached three all-America, 34 all-conference and 46 academic all-conference selections. Her teams won the first four ASC Conference Tournaments in league history. She also served as an assistant athletic director and senior women’s administrator at HSU. Goodenough and her husband, Rob, have two daughters, Bailey and Macy.

Southland Conference

The Southland Conference

n an era of considerable change in intercollegiate athletics, the Southland Conference continues to be a model of innovation, stability and consistent achievement as it celebrates a half-century of the academic and athletic accomplishments of its member institutions. Commemorating its 50th anniversary in 2013, the Southland Conference has transformed itself into a dynamic and respected consortium of 14 member universities in four 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 its five decades of existence. The successful transformation continues, as the Southland Conference welcomed the addition of Oral Roberts University in 2012-13, marking the league’s first entry into the state of Oklahoma. Also, on July 1, 2013, the Southland welcomed four additional members: 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 Conference 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, Abilene Christian rejoins the league as one of the most decorated athletic programs in NCAA history, and the addition of Houston Baptist, Incarnate Word 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 14.5 million people, and seven 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. Famous alums from current Southland Conference schools include former CBS news anchor Dan Rather (Sam Houston State), NBA executive Joe Dumars (McNeese State), ABC news anchor Robin Roberts (Southeastern Louisiana), MLB star Wade Miley (Southeastern Louisiana), NBA legend Scottie Pippen (Central Arkansas), and track and field Olympians Kenta Bell (Northwestern State), and Bobby Morrow and Max Lucado (both Abilene Christian). Other notable alums from current members include Grammy Award-winning musicians Frank Ocean (New Orleans), Don Henley and Rodney Crowell (both Stephen F. Austin), television personality and actress Ellen DeGeneres (New Orleans), current NFL standouts Lardarius Webb (Nicholls State), Terrence McGee (Northwestern State), and Danieal Manning (Abilene Christian), professional golfers Shawn Stefani and Chris Stroud (both Lamar) and Colin Montgomerie (HBU), CBS Sports producer Lance Barrow (Abilene Christian), award-winning filmmaker Richard Linklater (Sam Houston State), American Idol winner Kris Allen (Central Arkansas), NFL Hall of Famer Jackie Harris (Northwestern State), former NFL 18

standouts Bobby Hebert (Northwestern State), Gary Barbaro (Nicholls State), Wilbert Montgomery (Abilene Christian) and Gary Reasons (Northwestern State), former MLB stars Darryl Hamilton (Nicholls State) and Kevin Millar (Lamar), NCAA football coach Charlie Strong (Central Arkansas), TV personality Kathie Lee Gifford (Oral Roberts), actors John Larroquette (New Orleans), and Ricardo Chavira and Jesse Borrego (both UIW) and NFL coaching legend O.A. “Bum” Phillips (Lamar and Stephen F.

The eight men’s sports include baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, tennis, and indoor and outdoor track and field. The women compete for nine championships in basketball, cross country, golf, soccer, softball, tennis, indoor and outdoor track and field, and volleyball. The conference earns automatic qualification to NCAA championships in baseball, men’s and women’s basketball, men’s and women’s cross country, football, men’s and women’s golf, women’s soccer, softball, men’s and women’s tennis, and volleyball. Continuing its tradition of innovation, the league launched the Southland Conference Television Network in the fall of 2008 and has broadcast more than 160 events. The network has expanded its reach to roughly 13 million households throughout Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas and Oklahoma in recent years, and has also gained national viewership through ESPN3 and Fox College Sports. In its first five years, the network has received recognition for its work, earning numerous College Sports Media and Telly Awards. The Southland Conference, in conjunction with the city of Frisco, Texas, and Hunt Sports Group, also serves as the host to the NCAA Division I Football Championship Game in Frisco, which has been home to the conference headquarters since 2006. The game is played at Frisco’s FC Dallas Stadium, and after a successful three-year run, the partnership was rewarded with a three-year renewal to serve as the national championship host site through the 2015 season. Southland Conference football ranks among the best Football Championship Subdivision leagues in the nation, and enjoys an annual expectation of competing for the national championship with multiple teams advancing to the NCAA playoffs each year. In 2011 and 2012, Sam Houston State advanced to the NCAA national championship game. Also, in 2002 and 2003, McNeese State finished the regular season ranked No. 1 in the nation, and advanced to the 2002 national championship contest. The conference has been represented in eight national championship games since the league joined the FCS (formerly I-AA) in 1982. All told, Southland teams have played in 104 Division I playoff games in 31 years, winning 51 of the contests. Historically, the Southland’s successful football heritage has sustained itself through numerous membership and classification changes. The Southland joined the NCAA College Division in 1968, and was designated as NCAA Division II in 1973 before joining Division I in 1975. The Southland was an NCAA Division I-A league from 1978-81, before joining the ranks of FCS in 1982, its home ever since.

2013-14 ACU WILDCAT WOMEN’S BASKETBALL

During its tenure as a Division I-A conference, the Southland Conference initiated the startup of the Shreveport, La.-based Independence Bowl in 1976. The Southland representative served as the host team of the bowl until 1980, compiling a 2-3 record in those contests. The conference can lay claim to five national championships, including College Division championships through former members Arkansas State (1970, UPI) and Louisiana Tech (1972, National Football Foundation). Louisiana Tech also won the first NCAA-sanctioned national title, winning the Division II playoffs in 1973. Tech followed that with the UPI’s Division II national championship in 1974. Louisiana-Monroe won the 1987 Division I-AA national championship. McNeese State, which has made 14 appearances in the national playoffs, also played in the 1997 NCAA Division I Championship game, while Stephen F.

Austin quarterback Jeremy Moses became the first player in Southland history to receive the Walter Payton Award, which is presented annually to the most outstanding football player at the FCS level. The Southland is one of five FCS conferences with at least 200 selections (206) in the National Football League draft. There have been 26 Southland players taken in the draft since 2000, including Southeastern Louisiana defensive back Robert Alford, who was picked as the first FCS player in the second round of the 2013 draft. There are 20 former Southland players on NFL rosters heading into the 2013 season.Southland Conference alums in the NFL include Buffalo’s Terrence McGee (Northwestern State) and Chicago’s Josh McCown (Sam Houston State), who have each been in the league for the last 11 seasons.

The Southland has seen former Nicholls State players win Super Bowl rings in two of the last three seasons, as former Colonel Antonio Robinson was a member of the Green Bay Packers’ Super Bowl XLV champions. And, Nicholls-ex Lardarius Webb was a member of the Super Bowl XLVII champion Baltimore Ravens. Among the former NFL stars from the Southland include Fred Dean, who was inducted to the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2008 to become the first former Southland Conference player to earn induction in Canton.

In addition to football, the Southland Conference can point to a number of accomplishments in all sports.

Four. Basketball stars Karl Malone, Joe Dumars, Jeff Foster, Dwight “Bo” Lamar, Andrew Toney and Mike Oliver played in the Southland Conference. In 2006, Northwestern State, playing as the No. 14 seed in the NCAA tournament, defeated No. 3 seed Iowa, 64-63, in first-round action. The league also saw three of its current teams, including newcomer Oral Roberts, reach the postseason in 2012. Coaches such as Billy Tubbs, Mike Vining, Scotty Robertson, Jack Martin, Andy Russo, Bob Marlin, Danny Kaspar, Mike McConathy, Bobby Paschal and Pat Foster have led successful teams in the Southland. In women’s basketball, the Southland also has its share of tradition with former member Louisiana-Monroe advancing to the 1985 NCAA Women’s Final Four, and Stephen F. Austin sustaining itself as one of the most successful programs in the history of the sport. In 2008, the Ladyjacks became the eighth program in NCAA Division I history to record more than 800 wins. In each of the last four seasons, at least three Southland teams reached the postseason, and in 2012, four women’s squads earned postseason berths. A Southland team has played in the WNIT 13 times, including each of the last seven years. Women’s basketball all-stars have included Eun Jung Lee, Lisa Ingram, Portia Hill, Deneen Parker, Katrina Price, and Joskeen Garner, and coaches such as Gary Blair, Linda Sharp, James Smith and Linda Harper.

Major leaguers such as Ben Sheets, Micah Hoffpauir, Hunter Pence, David Segui, Brian Lawrence, Ben Broussard, Chuck Finley, Jerald Clark, and Terry Matthews once played in the Southland. In 2012, Southeastern Louisiana’s Stefan Lopez became the league’s second winner of the national Stopper of the Year Award, which is selected by the National Collegiate Baseball Writers. Sam Houston State’s Luke Prihoda won the award in 2007. Only the Big 12 has had more players win this award. The Southland also fares well each year in the MLB Draft, but for the first time in conference history, two Southland players were selected in the first round of the 2013 draft. Stephen F. Austin shortstop Hunter Dozier was picked eighth by the Kansas City Royals making the Southland player and hitter of the year the league’s top draft pick in any sport. Later in the first round, the Texas Rangers selected Oral Roberts right-handed pitcher Alex Gonzalez, Southland pitcher of the year, with the 23rd overall pick. The Southland has had eight first-round picks in its history. In 2011, Lamar mentor Jim Gilligan became the first Southland coach to reach 1,200 career victories, ranking him sixth-best in the NCAA among active Division I coaches and 24th all-time. He leads an impressive list of coaches who have patrolled Southland Conference dugouts, including Mark Johnson, Mike Bianco, John Cohen, Mitch Gaspard, Smoke Laval, Butch McBroom, Pat Patterson, Tony Robichaux, Dave Van Horn and Jim Wells. Softball continues to enjoy success on a national level, beating nationally ranked opponents every year since 1995, including McNeese State’s win at No. 1 Arizona State early in the 2012 season. In 2011, the league had four wins against ranked opponents, including a win by Stephen F. Austin at No. 3 Texas. In 20 years of NCAA tournament competition the Southland has racked up 15 wins.

Rew, who won the women’s discus in 2011, Texas A&M-Corpus Christi’s Shadrack Songok (10,000-meter run) in 2007 and 2008 and McNeese State’s Brad Gebauer (pole vault) in 2007. The league has also produced U.S. Olympic track and field medalists Earl Bell, Thomas Hill, Al Joyner, Charles Austin, and Liudmila Litvinova, along with other Olympians. With the addition of 10 more All-Americans in 2012, the league continues to find national success in both indoor and outdoor track and field. In the indoor circuit, the Southland boasts 66 unique all-time All-Americans that have won a combined 11 national championships. Likewise, in the outdoor season, the league has seen 158 different All-Americans, including 128 men and 30 women, who have combined to win 21 national titles. Golf has traditionally been a strong Southland sport as exemplified by Lamar men’s golfer Chris Stroud, who finished third individually at the 2003 NCAA National Championship and is a member of the PGA Tour. Both Stroud and former Southeastern Louisiana golfer Hugo Leon competed in the 2010 U.S. Open. Lamar alum Shawn Stefani had a pair of top seven finishes through the midway point of the 2013 PGA tour. The league has sent multiple teams into postseason play on numerous occasions, including in 2012 when three Southland teams – Lamar, Southeastern Louisiana and Texas-Arlington – competed in the NCAA tournament. Additionally, during the past five seasons the Southland has sent 12 golfers to compete as individuals in regional play with five in 2009, three more in 2010, one each in 2011 and 2012 and two in 2013. Lamar won a pair of NCAA Division II national championships in 1967 and 1968, and also produced PGA player Ronnie Black. In 2005, Lamar’s Dawie Van Der Walt finished fourth individually and Lamar tied for 12th place at the NCAA Men’s Golf Championship, before the Cardinals tied for ninth in 2006 and tied for third in 2007. Former Lamar golfer Casey Clendenon advanced to the semifinals of the U.S. Amateur in 2007. In women’s tennis, Southeastern Louisiana won 46 consecutive conference matches during a four-year period that began in 2005, while in men’s tennis Texas A&M-Corpus Christi has played in the NCAA tournament five times in the last seven years. The conference has increased sponsorship and championship opportunities for female student-athletes in recent years, adding women’s golf and soccer as league sports. In women’s soccer, Stephen F. Austin midfielder Kylie Louw became the first player in conference history to earn All-America honors, when she earned third-team mention by the National Soccer Coaches Association of America. A member of the South Africa Olympic team during the 2012 London Olympics, she also garnered first-team Academic All-America honors from the College Sports Information Directors of America. The Ladyjacks have gone 72-12-8 (.826) in conference play during the last 10 seasons. In women’s golf, the Southland sent two teams to 2012 NCAA regional play for the first time since the league added the sport in 2002. Lamar leads all league teams with four team championships during that span. The Southland Conference has repeatedly demonstrated its commitment to the academic and athletic success of its student-athletes. With the F.L. McDonald Postgraduate Scholarship Award, the league annually honors one male and one female scholar-athlete with a stipend for postgraduate study. The Scholar-Athlete Award is given to each institution’s male and female student-athlete with the highest grade-point average. The Steve McCarty Citizenship Award, initiated in 2005-06 and named after the former Stephen F. Austin athletic director, properly recognizes accomplishments off the court for a male and female student-athlete. Also, student-athletes with grade-point averages above 3.0 are honored on the Southland’s annual All-Academic teams and Commissioner’s Honor Roll. A record 979 student-athletes appeared on the honor roll following the 2012 spring semester, and total of 1,545 student-athletes earned a spot on the honor roll at the end of the fall and spring semesters during the 2012-13 academic year. 20

While successful on the fields and courts, the Southland Conference has repeatedly demonstrated its commitment to the academic and athletic success of its student-athletes. The conference continues to make great strides in the classroom. During the last seven years, no other Division I conference has improved its Academic Progress Rate as well as the Southland Conference has. In fact, in 2009-10, the Southland ranked 10th among the 31 Division I leagues in men’s basketball APR. The academic progress the league has shown ultimately leads to higher graduation rates for our student-athletes. In addition to providing expanding opportunities for student-athletes, the Southland Conference and its member institutions are very involved in various community outreach programs. Many of these programs provide positive life skills training such as academics, citizenship and leadership to school-aged students in Southland communities.

ACU Athletics Staff JARED MOSLEY

Director of Athletics Jared Mosley is entering his 10th

year as the director of athletics after serving two years as the associate director of athletics for operations. He is responsible for the athletics budget, fundraising, facilities oversight, student-athlete development, athletics events, marketing and special projects. Mosley was named the seventh director of athletics in ACU history in June 2004, and under his leadership (through 2012-13), the Wildcats won 10 NCAA Division II national championships, 20 Division II regional championships and 46 Lone Star Conference championships. His greatest achievement to date has been to guide ACU athletics through the transition from Division II and the LSC to Division I affiliation and membership in the Southland Conference. As part of the move to Division I status, Mosley negotiated a three-year deal with Adidas for the sports apparel company to be the official outfitter of ACU athletics. In May 2008, Mosley won the All-American Football Foundation’s General Robert Neyland Award as the Athletics Director of the Year for the NCAA Southwest Region. He also serves on the NCAA Division II Men’s National Tennis Committee and is on the National Association for Collegiate Directors of Athletics Executive Committee. Under Mosley’s leadership, ACU continued to build on its athletics tradition as one of the most successful programs in Division II. The Wildcats finished in the top four of the Learfield Sports Directors’ Cup in five of Mosley’s seven seasons as the director of athletics, and ninth the other two seasons. ACU began a women’s soccer program in 2007-08 and had a successful inaugural season, finishing 8-11-1 overall and just missing the LSC Post-Season Tournament. In 2010, that team won its first conference title and advanced to the regional championship match. Marketing and increasing the visibility of ACU athletics have been another focus during Mosley’s tenure. The Wildcats launched a new website (acusports.com) in August 2006 to capitalize on technology advancements and the opportunity to keep fans, alumni, donors and prospects more engaged through a more interactive Web experience. ACU now offers Web streaming of athletics contests, online camp/event registration, email subscription updates and merchandise sales. Abilene Christian also benefited from its televised football game against West Texas A&M in 2006 that was broadcast nationally on CSTV. Mosley is one of the most decorated basketball players to play for ACU. He finished his career in 1999 as the 11th-leading scorer and eighth-leading rebounder in school history, and in his senior season (1998-99) he led the Wildcats to the Division II South Central Region championship game.

He earned several honors during his senior season, including first team GTE academic all-America, first team NCAA all-South Central Region by the NABC, second team all-region by Daktronics-CoSIDA, LSC South Division MVP and first team academic all-LSC. He also was awarded a $5,000 NCAA Post-Graduate Scholarship. Mosley, who graduated with a 3.88 GPA, was a three-time academic all-LSC pick, two-time all-LSC first team selection and all-tournament at the 1999 NCAA II region tournament. He and his wife, Trish, have two sons (Jaden and Jaxon) and a daughter (Blair).

After graduating from Athens, Ala., High School in 1949, Bullington headed west to play college football. He was a four-year letterman at Abilene Christian, helping to lead the Wildcats to the only undefeated, untied season (11-0 in 1950) in school history. He was named all-Texas Conference in 1950, 1951 and 1952, and received first team all-America honors at center in 1952. While Bullington was an assistant coach at Abilene High School, the Eagles won three state championships in football. When he became head coach, he led his team to a 40-19-1 record over six seasons (1960-65). And in nine years as the head football coach at Abilene Christian (1968-76), his teams had a 62-32-2 record. Four of his nine Wildcat teams were nationally ranked, he coached ACU to its first NAIA Division I national championship, and coached six first team all-America players, including eventual all-pro running back Wilbert Montgomery. In 1969, Bullington became the ACU’s athletics director and presided over the Wildcats’ transition from NAIA to NCAA Division II. During his tenure, ACU won 17 national titles, including another football championship in 1977, and 41 Lone Star Conference titles. Bullington has served as program coordinator for Herald of Truth, an elder for Highland Church of Christ in Abilene and a member of the board for the Abilene Independent School District.

The first complete season in the coliseum was the 1968-69 campaign. ACU’s John Ray Godfrey – still the Wildcats’ only first team NCAA all-America men’s basketball player – made the opening night one to remember as he hit 17 of 24 field goals and seven of 12 free throws on his way to 41 points.

That record was broken by David Baxter, who scored 44 points against the Rams on Jan. 24, 2005. Tarleton State’s Brandon Burney holds the all-time scoring record with 50 points in a win over ACU on Feb. 1, 2001.

Wildcat student-athletes are fortunate to train in the state-of-the-art Powell Fitness Center, which opened in 1993 and was renovated in the spring and summer of 2007. In the last renovation, the size of the fitness was doubled to more than 8,000 square feet. Included in the center are free weights, cable weights, hammer strength equipment, cardio exercise machines, and other exercise equipment. The Powell Fitness Center was built in 1992 on Oliver Jackson Boulevard, adjacent to Elmer Gray Stadium. It is named for its donor, Lee Powell of Paducah, Ky. The late Powell was ACU’s 1963 Outstanding Alumnus of the Year, a recipient of an honorary Doctor of Laws degree from the university, and a member of the ACU Sports Hall of Fame.

STUDENT RECREATION AND WELLNESS CENTER

Money Student Recreation and Wellness Center

The ACU men’s and women’s basketball teams have access to four practice floors inside the Royce and Pam Money Student Recreation and Wellness Center, which opened in September 2011. The recreation center is a 113,000-square-foot expansion and renovation of the Gibson Health and Physical Education Center adjoining Moody Coliseum. It is named after former ACU president and current chancellor, Dr. Royce Money, and his wife, Pam. Featuring student-requested items, state-of-the-art technology and cutting-edge workout and classroom space, the $21 million expansion is one of the most popular student-gathering places on campus. Other features include a 1/8-mile jogging track, the Wessel Fitness Center, and lap and leisure pools.

2013-14 ACU WILDCAT WOMEN’S BASKETBALL

“

I tell my coaching friends – and anyone who will listen – that I have the best job in America: coaching Division I women’s basketball at Abilene Christian University. We provide a unique Division I athletics experience for our student-athletes in an intentionally Christian environment. Our players are not only given the opportunity to excel academically and athletically, but even more importantly, socially and spiritually, in a family-type atmosphere. We tell recruits that if they want to go somewhere and be anonymous, don’t come here! At ACU, our student-athletes are known, loved, prayed for, and mentored by awesome faculty and staff. With our recruiting efforts, we are evaluating players from around the nation but our main focus is in Texas. In my opinion, some of the nation’s best high school coaches are in Texas and we want to coach their players. Our desire is to keep the best talent from Texas, in Texas at ACU. We are obviously recruiting players who have the ability and talent to help us win at the Division I level, but our priority in recruiting is to find players who are mentally tough, extreme competitors, and who will be incredible ambassadors for ACU. Every aspect of campus life at Abilene Christian University operates in a first-class, Division I manner, so it made sense for the athletics program to compete at the highest level as well. The Southland Conference is an excellent league; we are proud to be members are are ready to begin new rivalries. Our program seeks the identity of “Godly Women Seeking Excellence.”
