2014-15 PREVIEW

The Lady Demons celebrate after Janelle Perez’ buzzer beater sent NSU to the Southland Conference Championship game.

The 2013-14 women’s basketball team did things that haven’t been seen at NSU in a decade, and all signs are pointing to more this season. The Lady Demons finished with a 21-13 record, a Southland Conference Tournament championship and an NCAA Tournament berth. Northwestern State hadn’t won 20 games in a single season since 2004, also the last NCAA tourney appearance, nor had it experienced a winning record since 2008. “I think the biggest thing, especially with our returners, is they understand what it takes to win a championship and they understand the level that we want to compete at every day,” said co-head coach Brooke Stoehr. Stoehr and her husband, Scott, took over the program after the 2011-12 season and start their third season. “I think now our leadership now goes from our staff having to harp on them everyday to a peer leadership,” said Stoehr. “I think that the peer leadership is very important and it helps them hold each other accountable.” The 2014-15 squad returns four starters, but lost its leading scorer and rebounder in Trudy Armstead. Senior guard Chelsea Rogers led NSU in 3-point shooting percentage, including a 4-of-5 performance against SFA in the SLC Tournament Championship game.

2014-15 NORTHWESTERN STATE WOMEN’S BASKETBALL

Armstead was named to the All-Southland Conference team and took home the Most Valuable Player award from the league tournament. “We’ll miss Trudy for sure,” said Stoehr. “We’ve tweaked some things and have looked at things in the offseason to help our team be successful. “We have some young talent coming in, and some transfers that help fill that void. It may not be just one player, but two or three filling that role if we can get some people combined for that double-double.” In the low post, Northwestern State returns Presley Owens who averaged three points and two rebounds a game. She started 33 of NSU’s 34 games in 2013-14 as a junior transfer. “Presley has shown great strides as far as her confidence level and strength. Her leadership has been tremendous during the summer and start of the fall,” said Stoehr. “I’m excited to see how that position develops for us through the year.” Owens is the only returner in the frontcourt this season. She joins one junior transfer (Meghan Cross) and two freshmen (Ndey Sonko and Tia Youngblood). The backcourt for NSU has the potential to be explosive in 2014 with all three starters returning in Janelle Perez, Chelsea Rogers and Keisha Lee. Along with those, Northwestern State gets back Beatrice Attura, Robin Richardson, Amy Staha and Arianne Ausmer. “I am excited about our backcourt,” said Stoehr. “I think anytime you can go in with players who have started for two years and played a lot of minutes, it is a huge lift.” Both Lee and Perez have eclipsed the 2,000-minute mark in their careers, and together have combined for 4,275 minutes on the floor. Both juniors, Perez brings a 10-point scoring average in to the new season and Lee adds a 13.3 average. Lee is 430 points away from joining the Top 20 list for all-time scorers at Northwestern State. “The number of minutes that both Keisha and Janelle have played for us is experience that cannot be substituted,” said Stoehr. Rogers started 32 contests a season ago, and was NSU’s top rebounding guard (5.0 rpg) and the team’s leader in 3-point percentage. She was electric in the league tournament championship with four 3-point makes in five attempts. Attura, who scored 11 points against Tennessee in the NCAA Tournament game as a freshman, returns with a 3.8 scoring average. Attura’s best games were against power-conference opponents -- with a career-high 13 points against Baylor to add to her 11-point output at Tennessee. “I’ve been really pleased with Beatrice Attura and Amy Staha and how they have worked during the offseason to come back stronger,” said Stoehr. “ They are ready to compete for a major minutes. It has been fun to watch them compete.” Along with the returners, NSU welcomes three newcomers to finish out the backcourt in Jackie Perez, TaSheena Moore and Sami Thomas. “I’m expecting big things. We have some newcomers who will come in and really challenge the veterans,” said Stoehr. “I also think it is nice to be

Co-head coaches Brooke and Scott Stoehr discuss strategy against Tennessee at the NCAA Tournament. The Lady Demons were tied with the top-seeded Lady Vols with 18 mintes to play in NSU’s first NCAA appearance in 10 years.

able to give some of the veterans a break and allow the newcomers to ease into that spot. “There are a couple that will challenge for more minutes.” Though NSU returns eight players from last year’s team and adds six newcomers, the Lady Demons will still have a wealth of experience when they tip off against LeTourneau in the Nov. 14 season opener. A rugged schedule loaded with teams from the Southeastern and Big 12 conferences will help the newcomers adjust quickly to the rigors of Division I basketball. “For us, being able to get people the game experience is crucial,” said

BASKETBALL Stoehr. “When you look at last year, playing the ‘big’ teams really helped out when it comes to the big moments in the postseason.” Before the calendar flips to 2015, NSU plays Arkansas, Texas A&M, Texas and Oklahoma State. “This year will probably be the toughest non-conference schedule we’ve had in the three years Scott and I have been here,” Stoehr said. “It will be a great challenge but one our team will welcome. “I think that if we can get our players that type of experience in that environment, then it will pay great dividends for us. It also helps to keep our legs fresh. You have to be playing your best basketball in March, and to do that you have be fresh and energized while getting experience along the way.” For the first time in 31 seasons, state rival Louisiana Tech visits Prather Coliseum. The Nov. 18 matchup revives the long-dormant rivalry and will see Brooke Stoehr face her alma mater for the first time as a head coach. Northwestern State opens its league schedule against Houston Baptist on Jan. 2 at 3 p.m. in Houston.

When Brooke and Scott Stoehr were hired on April 4, 2012, not many people could have imagined that they would turn a 6-23 program in 2011-12 into a 20-game winner and NCAA participant in just two seasons. The 2013-14 Louisiana Coaches of the Year led the NSU women’s hoop squad to just that. With a 21-13 record and Southland Conference Tournament championship, Northwestern State headed to Thompson-Boling Arena to face No. 1 seeded Tennessee Volunteers, a game in which the Lady Demons stood toe to toe with the Lady Vols, trailing by just 10 points with 10 minutes to play despite a starting lineup featuring three players who did not have another Division I scholarship offer. The 21-13 record was the first winning record for NSU since 2008-09 and its first winning conference record (11-7) since 2010-11. The Lady Demons hadn’t had a 20-win season since 2004, also the last NCAA Tourney appearance. In 2012-13, the husband-wife duo won twice as many games as the program did the year before, all with the sixth-most inexperienced squad in the nation. They posted a 12-18 record and 7-11 league mark, and guided the program back to the Southland Conference Tournament. Through the course of their first season, the Lady Demons upset four of the top five teams in the final standings, including Oral Roberts that went on to the NCAA Tournament, Sam Houston that participated in the WNIT, McNeese that played in the WBI. The two split on-court responsibilities with the team with Brooke working with the backcourt and Scott the forwards and post players. Scott helped develop Trudy Armstead into an all-conference player and eventual MVP of the 2013-14 Southland Conference Tournament. Brooke transformed 5-foot-2 Janelle Perez, who had no other Division I offers because of her height, into a league Freshman of the Year (2013) and all-conference player. Brooke spent the last three years prior to arriving at NSU as an assistant coach at Texas Tech and helped guide the Lady Raiders to a NCAA and two National Women’s Invitational tournaments. Prior to Texas Tech, she spent a season on the staff at Southern Mississippi and three years on the staff at her alma mater, Louisiana Tech, following a stay at Arkansas-Little Rock. The 34-year old was a standout player at Hamburg (Ark.) High School and played collegiately at Louisiana Tech from 1998-2002 where she served as a two-year captain and starting point guard as a junior and senior, while leading the Lady Techsters to an impressive 119-16 mark under legendary coach Leon Barmore. She was instrumental in leading Louisiana Tech to four NCAA Championship appearances, including the Final Four in 1999 and two more Elite Eight appearances. During her playing days, Louisiana Tech won four regular-season conference titles and conference tournament crowns, while only losing one conference game. The 2001 All-Sun Belt Conference selection ended her career ranked as the NCAA Division I all-time career free throw percentage leader at 91.5 percent, hitting 268 of

At Southern Mississippi, Brooke worked primarily with the perimeter players.

She also served as a graduate assistant at Florida State prior to her job at UALR. Scott, who received his degree in biology from Nebraska Wesleyan in 1997 and his master’s degree in kinesiology from North Texas in 1999, began his coaching career at Nebraska Wesleyan University and followed that with stints at North Texas, Florida State, Arkansas-Little Rock and Louisiana Tech before leaving the college ranks for high school in 2008. In his first position as a Division I coach, Scott helped guide North Texas to its most successful time in school history, including three conference division championships, two postseason tournaments and a 43-4 home record over a four year period. Scott was the position coach for the 2002 Sun Belt Conference Player of the Year and the league’s Defensive Player of the Year and was responsible for recruiting regions in Oklahoma and Arkansas. At Florida State, he generated and implemented offensive and defensive game plans, coached the guards which included an All-ACC player, and assisted the team to its second highest win total and its second postseason tournament berth in school history as a member of the ACC. He followed that with a stint at Arkansas-Little Rock where he helped recruit the 2005 Sun Belt Conference’s

The Southland sponsors 17 championship sports, all at the NCAA Division I level. The eight men’s sports include baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, tennis, and indoor and outdoor track and field. The women compete for nine championships in basketball, cross country, golf, soccer, softball, tennis, indoor and outdoor track and field, and volleyball. The conference earns automatic qualification to NCAA championships in baseball, men’s and women’s basketball, men’s and women’s cross country, football, men’s and women’s golf, women’s soccer, softball, men’s and women’s tennis, and volleyball. Continuing its tradition of innovation, the league launched the Southland Conference Television Network in the fall of 2008 and has 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 six 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 Toyota 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.

2013-14 IN REVIEW

Was it a return to the glory days? Twenty-one wins, a conference tournament championship and an NCAA Tournament appearance make a good argument for it. The program had not experienced 20 wins in a season since 2004, nor had it reached the Southland Conference Tournament finals or been to a national postseason tournament in a decade. All of that happened in 2013-14, a season that restored the shine to a tradition-rich program. The vast majority of the previous high points in Lady Demon basketball history came in 24 years from 1980-2004, including 13 20-win seasons, two WNIT championship game appearances, and a collection of signature wins including victories over Duke, Iowa, Louisville, Notre Dame and Texas A&M, among a lengthy list of elite national programs. In 29 of the program’s first 31 seasons, Northwestern State produced a winning record. In the first 18 seasons of Southland membership (1988-2005), the Lady Demons reached the semifinals or finals of the Southland Conference tournament 15 times, winning the 2004 event and making five national postseason appearances. But over the last seven seasons prior to the arrival of co-head coaches Brooke and Scott Stoehr, NSU had five under-.500 records. When the Stoehrs were hired in 2012, their main goal was to re-establish a winning culture. That gradual process came to fruition late last season when NSU notched four straight wins to grab the fourth seed in the league tournament. That run reached seven when the Lady Demons captured their first SLC tournament title since 2004 by beating the tournament’s No. 1, 2 and 5 seeds.

It was most apparent when NSU held a 22-22 tie with top-seeded Tennessee at Thompson-Boling Arena in Knoxville. Northwestern State was fearless in that game, and was led by season leading scorer Trudy Armstead. “I could not be more proud of my team and the way they competed. I think fearless was a word that we kept using over and over this week,” said Brooke Stoehr in the postgame news conference after the contest. “I’m just so proud of their fight, their effort and their will to compete for each other and our staff.” To even get to that point, NSU had to win a close game over in-state rival, Nicholls, in the first round of the SLC tournament before Janelle Perez was able to lift the Lady Demons over league champion Lamar in the second round. LU held a six-point lead with just under four minutes to play, but was scoreless until there was 1:22 to play. Down 59-53, Robin Richardson hit two free throws that cut it to four, before Lamar’s Jameisha Edwards made it a five-point lead by making one of two free throws. Armstead grabbed the defensive board, which allowed Perez to score a fastbreak bucket followed by another 30 seconds later to cut it to one point. The game-winner from Perez was set up by a five-second violation on an inbounds play from the Cardinals. Down one point, Perez took the ball to the top of the key, played for the last shot and drove the lane with just under nine seconds. After the ball bounced on the rim three times, it fell through the net to give NSU the one-point edge with 2.4 seconds to play. It was not even close in the championship game that ended in a 62-44 win over Stephen F. Austin. Northwestern State held the lead for the final 32 minutes of the game, and almost 38 minutes for the entire game. SFA scored the game’s first points on a layup and eventually took the lead back with 12:43 to play in the first half, but Perez drained a 3-pointer shortly after to put them down again. Armstead and Perez took all-tournament honors,including Armstead winning the most valuable player award. The season got off to a great start when NSU downed Houston in Prather Coliseum, 74-70. Keisha Lee carried the Lady Demons with 28 points in that game, which turned out to be a season and career high for her. “Its exciting. I’m really happy for our players; they believe in themselves,” said Stoehr in a postgame interview. “We just talk about the process and giving

BASKETBALL your best every single day.” NSU gave up the lead with eight minutes to play, which was the only time the Cougars controlled the game. NSU strung together a nine-point run to jump up 65-59 with 3:44 to play in the contest, and Houston would not get closer than three points in the contest. After a disappointing loss to UTSA, Baylor battled NSU for a 38-30 advantage, largely due to Armstead’s 15 points and three rebounds along with Beatrice Attura’s 11 points and three boards. Baylor put together 50 points in the second half to take the contest. The next milestone came at home when NSU won the 700th game in program history at home against Arkansas-Monticello. Defensive effort was the story of that contest when NSU forced the Cotton Blossoms into 27 turnovers. “It’s nice to hit that milestone. It’s a tribute to all the coaches and players that came before us,” Stoehr said. “We’re just a small part of that. Hopefully we can add a lot more wins for the program.” “I’m just honored and proud to be a part of that. It’s special to get it at home.” The Lady Demons continued to play power conference schools tough, next was at Texas. NSU jumped out to an early 18-11 lead, but Texas’ size helped the Longhorns take control on the boards and defensively. In league play, NSU never lost more than two games in a row, and only did that once. The Lady Demons fell to 3-4 after wins over Sam Houston, Texas A&MCorpus Christi and Stephen F. Austin and losses to Central Arkansas, Oral Roberts, Lamar and Houston Baptist. From that point on, Northwestern State closed the regular season with an 8-3 record.

QUICK CLIMB Since being hired before the 2012-2013 season, the co-head coaching combo of Brooke and Scott Stoehr has lifted the Northwestern State Lady Demons program from its nadir back to the top of the Southland Conference mountain. YEAR 2011-12 2012-13 2013-14 TOTALS

HISTORY OF NORTHWESTERN STATE WOMEN’S BASKETBALL

Since the first team took the court in 1908, the women’s basketball program at Northwestern 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 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 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 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 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-foot5, 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 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 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 was named conference MVP. 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 basketball history. She was a secondteam 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 accepted a bid to the NWIT and claimed the consolation championship (third place). The 1993-94 Lady Demons posted their 15th consecu-

WOMEN’S tive 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 posted its fourth consecutive 20-win season en route to a record-tying 25-7 record in 199495. The Lady Demons captured their first Southland Conference championship, finishing league play with a 16-2 record. Northwestern 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 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 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 Demon record books. The team reeled off 13 straight wins from Dec. 20, 1998 to Feb. 6, 1999, a new Lady Demon 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 soon. 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 1985- crowns, advancing to the second NCAA Tournament in 1986- school history. 1987- 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 1988- for three straight seasons. She was featured in the NCAA 1989- Final Four official program. 1990- Dobin later returned to the Lady Demon program as an 1991- 1992- assistant coach for the 2011-12 season. On Sept. 1, 2004, the torch was passed. Smith stepped 1993- down as head coach and Lady Demon player and assistant 1994- 1995- coach Jennifer Graf, after being groomed by her mentor 1996- for the last two seasons, took over as head coach. 1999- Graf stepped down at NSU after accumulating more 2000- than 100 wins for the Lady Demons at the conclusion of 2001- the 2011-12 season, and on Apr. 4, 2012, the first set of 2002- co-head coaches in program history was hired. Brooke 2003- Stoehr, who started at point guard for rival Louisiana Tech 2004- from 2000-02, was hired from Texas Tech with her hus- 2005- 2008- band, Scott. The two immediately saw success after doubling the 1984- program’s win total in just a year and taking NSU its third 1985- NCAA tournament after a SLC Tourney championship in 1988- 2014. 1989- The 2013-14 season was much like the days of old with 1990- a 20-win season, its first since 2004, and one team stand- 1992- 1994- ing between NSU and the big dance, Stephen F. Austin. The Lady Demons downed the Ladyjacks 62-44 on 1995- March 16 to claim the second league tournament title in 1996- 1999- school history which led to Brooke and Scott Stoehr cap2000- turing the Louisiana Sports Writers Association Coaches of 2002- the Year Award. 2003- Four Lady Demons have had their jerseys retired after 2004- great careers. Hanging in the rafters of Prather Coliseum, 2014- 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 Demon hoops, that more banners will be raised.

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 and sports information 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.

That funding included the establishment of numerous endowed chairs and professorships to enhance academic programs at the university. In addition to the private funding, Northwestern State has received more grant monies in recent years from state and federal agencies and private foundations than at any time since its founding in 1884. Webb has also expanded the university’s outreach by spearheading the development at NSU of the largest electronic education and distance learning network of any university in Louisiana. Northwestern State offers courses and 34 accredited degree programs to students across the nation and world through Internet and compressed video. Several university online programs have been rated as being among the best buys in the United States. Millions of dollars have been obtained during Webb’s presidency for new and renovated facilities. The new facilities include the Wellness, Recreation and Activity Center, Student Services Center and University Place I and II. Morrison Hall, the Family and Consumer Sciences Building, Williamson Hall, Russell Hall and Caspari Hall have been completely renovated and restored. Northwestern State’s academic programs and athletic teams continue to receive positive national recognition. The Computer Information Systems program has won 12 national championships in academic competition over the past 12 years. The university achieved Tier I status in the U.S. News and World Report ranking of regional universities on two occasions. The master’s program in nursing was rated as one of the Top 100 by U.S. News. A new Doctor of Nursing Practice program was created along with a Post Master’s Certificate in Global Security and Intelligence and a master’s in homeland security. The university has added new undergraduate academic programs in theatre, criminal justice, unified public safety administration, organizational leadership, addiction studies, liberal arts, general studies, communication and allied health under Webb. Northwestern State is looking to add and enhance academic programs that meet the state’s workforce development needs. Several faculty earned prestigious Fulbright Fellowships to teach internationally and Northwestern State students have received several of the top scholarships awarded for graduate studies. Demon and Lady Demon athletic teams have won team conference championships in baseball, men’s and women’s basketball, football, soccer, softball and women’s tennis and had numerous All-Americans in men’s and women’s track and field. Student-athletes at Northwestern State also excel academically as the university has the state’s top five-year average among Louisiana Division I Football Championship Subdivision schools in the NCAA’s Graduation Success Rate study. Northwestern State is among the Southland Conference leaders in graduation rates. The athletic program has also recorded strong results on the NCAA Academic Progress Report led by state and Southland Conference-best scores by the men’s basketball program in the latest survey. A former center on the Northwestern football team, Webb is an avid supporter of the university’s athletic programs and has held positions of leadership at the national level in intercollegiate athletics. He has served as chair of the board of directors of the Southland Conference and has been a member of the prestigious NCAA Executive Council and the NCAA Division I Board of Directors that oversee all major policy decisions by the governing body for major college sports.

He became Dean of Instruction and Graduate Studies and professor of mathematics at Northwestern in 1989. In that position, he was responsible for campus-wide policy development, planning, advancement, and review of both graduate and undergraduate programs. While Webb was in that position, graduate enrollment increased by 35 percent, and internal funding for faculty research increased by 200 percent. As dean, Webb proposed the concept for NSU’s successful Freshman Connection Program and served as a member of the writing team for a grant proposal that resulted in a five year, $1.7 million Title III grant to improve student retention.

His vast knowledge of higher education and his commitment to the academic success of students are second to none.

Perhaps most important is his warm and open approach to communication. College constituencies are encouraged by his style to feel comfortable expressing their points of view. I was fortunate to be his dissertation advisor as he completed his outstanding dissertation. I deeply admire Jim and all that he has accomplished.” Charlene Nunley Program Director (Retired), Doctor of Management - Community College Policy and Administration, University of Maryland University College

He is a strong supporter of the community as well as the college. As Chancellor, he is very personable with faculty and student alike. He makes weekly rounds to all departments just to stay in touch with us and see how faculty members and our students are doing. He is not an untouchable leader, and I think that is a remarkable quality. I am very sad to see him leave BPCC, but I have no doubt he will be an excellent choice for NSU.” Amy Williams, Assistant Professor of Nursing, Bossier Parish Community College

“Northwestern has great days ahead. Dr. Henderson is a man of the highest level. He is a person of great integrity and knows how to empower people. Dr. Henderson is a very forward-thinking individual. Because of him, the staff at BPCC has a can-do attitude. They believed that could accomplish things in spite of what is happening externally. He played a pivotal role in helping our board reshape how it functions.” Bruce Willson Jr., President/CEO, United Way of Northwest Louisiana

“Dr. Henderson is a man who inspires great trust and confidence. His genuine, sincere and caring manner, great intellect, dedication to the college and students, determination to accept nothing less that quality education, and openness with students, staff and shareholders all serve well to enable him to be a leader of change, inspiration and vision. People believe in what he is doing and want to be part of a new and exciting vision and challenge.” Miles Hitchcock, Assistant Professor of Technology, Engineering and Mathematics, Bossier Parish Community College

Jerry Pierce

Vice President • External Affairs Only a handful of people have served Northwestern State as long as Jerry Pierce has, and nobody has done so in a more understated manner. In his 50th 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 24th 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 is an avid tennis player who 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 overNSU Athletic Council sees university operations in athletics, alumni and development, public Jody Biscoe (Chair) and media relations and assists President Dr. Randall J.

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 more than two decades later. Pierce is regarded as one of the most effective legislative liaisons for Louisiana’s higher education system. He is also a popular after dinner speaker and master of ceremonies who has spoken at hundreds of events since 1965. In addition to his administrative responsibilities, Pierce is a member of the Journalism Department faculty.

Burke was the 2010-11 president of the Football Championship Subdivision Athletics Directors Association. He has just been named to the newly formed NCAA Committee on Academics, a 20-person group replacing the Committee on Academic Performance, which included Burke, and the NCAA Academic Cabinet. Burke also has served on the NCAA Championships/Sports Management Cabinet. He 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. Burke 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. Burke’s 17 years as athletic director include 37 Southland Conference regular-season or tournament championships, 61 All-American and Academic All-American student athletes, and three U.S. Olympic competitors. Twenty NSU teams have taken part in NCAA or WNIT postseason competition. All of the school’s athletic facilities have undergone nearly $7 million in improvements in the past four years. 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; and a $500,000 softball grandstand project completed earlier this year. 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 displayed a remarkable ability to hire dynamic head coaches. In just their second seasons, women’s basketball co-head coaches Brooke and Scott Stoehr guided NSU to the NCAA Tournament while baseball coach Lane Burroughs executed the best one-season turnaround in Southland Conference history and tied NSU’s school record. Anchors of the NSU department include current gead coaches Mike McConathy, Louisiana’s all-time career basketball wins leader; 2013 Louisiana softball coach of the Year Donald Pickett; Hugh and Stephanie Hernesman, who just led the volleyball program to its best two seasons in the 31-year history of the program; and Patric DuBois, whose Lady Demon tennis program has two Southland Conference titles in the past four years. Several other Burke hires had great success at Northwestern State that propelled them to national prominence in subsequent positions. From his first day on the job, Burke has stressed the importance of having a balanced athletic program. To that end, tremendous competitive strides have been made in women’s athletics under his guidance. Along with the aforementioned volleyball surge, NSU’s soccer program was the first in Louisiana to reach the NCAA Tournament. Softball and tennis made NCAA Tournament appearances in 2013, the second in four seasons for Lady Demon tennis, and softball returned in 2014. 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 by NSU student-athletes, coaches and staff more than doubled to over 5,000 hours in 2009-10 and has remained at that level. 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 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 became one of only 21 alumni honored since the award was instituted in 1982. Burke 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 president of the Natchitoches Area Jaycees. He is 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 20-year-old daughter, Catherine, graduated from St. Mary’s High School in May of 2012 and attends Louisiana Tech. Burke with his wife Susu and daughter Catherine

Assistant AD/ Sports Information Director In charge of athletic media relations at his alma mater since January 1989, Doug Ireland coordinates publicity efforts for Northwestern’s 14 intercollegiate sports teams through local, regional and national media outlets in print, broadcast, television and the internet. He is assistant athletic director and sports information director. He also serves in the volunteer role of chairman of the Louisiana Sports Hall of Fame. Ireland assumed that post in April 1990. He played a key role in the development of the $23 million Louisiana Sports Hall of Fame and Northwest Louisiana History Museum, which opened its doors on Front Street in Natchitoches in June 2013. His 1992 Demon Football Media Guide won “Best in the Nation” in FCS Division from the College Sports Information Directors of America. A 1997 story on Joe Delaney, “The Guy We Called Joe D,” won a national second-place award in a COSIDA writing contest. Ireland has won numerous awards for writing and publications from the Louisiana Sports Writers Association. In 2008, he was awarded the Northwest Louisiana “Distinguished American” award by the S.M. McNaughton Chapter of the National Football Foundation, joining a list of recipients including U.S. Senator J. Bennett Johnston. In 2012, he was honored by the Alexandria Town Talk as the “CENLA Sportsman of the Year” for his work as NSU’s SID and toward the completion of the $23 million Hall of Fame Museum. The LSWA presented its prestigious Mac Russo Award to Ireland in 2001 for his contributions to the organization. Ireland was awarded honorary membership in the Graduate N Club at NSU by the university’s group of athletic lettermen in 1999 for his service to Northwestern and its athletic program, and in 2003 he was given full N Club membership. He was appointed by President Dr. Randall Webb to serve a two-year term on the inaugural University Planning Council in 1997-99. Several of his assistant SIDs and graduate assistants have advanced to prominence in media fields. Former NSU sports information staffers under Ireland include Bruce Ludlow, associate commissioner of the Southland Conference; Bill Magrath, media relations manager for the Sports Business Daily; Kenny Lannou, assistant AD and director of athletic communications at Kansas State; Mike Morrison, former co-editor of the ESPN Information Please Almanac; Daucy Crizer, assistant AD and business manager at Lamar; Erik Cox, former SID at Lamar; Dart Volz, former SID at Southeastern Louisiana; Melissa Reynaud, former assistant SID at LSU; and Troy Mitchell, SID at Henderson State. Dustin Eubanks, NSU’s director of NCAA compliance, worked in the NSU SID office as a graduate assistant and for two years as the fulltime assistant, and Adam Jonson, NSU’s associate athletics director, was a student and graduate assistant in the SID office. In 1981-82, while an undergraduate at Northwestern, Ireland worked as chief of the Shreveport Times Natchitoches Bureau, coordinating news coverage of an eight-parish region along the Red River. From 1982-85, he was assistant SID at Louisiana-Lafayette, working with a men’s basketball program that made three straight postseason tournament appearances. He won CoSIDA publications and writing awards while at USL. Ireland was the sports editor of the Natchitoches Times in 1985-86 and attended graduate school at Louisiana-Monroe before joining the Alexandria Town Talk sports staff in 1987. In 18 months at the Town Talk, he covered both NSU and LSU sports and won 15 writing awards from the Louisiana Sports Writers’ Association, including a still-record nine in 1988. A member of the Blue Key National Honor Fraternity and a student government senator while completing a journalism degree from Northwestern, Ireland was editor of the student newspaper “Current Sauce” as a sophomore before going to work for the Shreveport Times. He was an all-district baseball player and the student body president at Jonesboro-Hodge High School, where he was a wingback for the Tigers’ 1977 Class AA state football finalists coached by the late Don Shows.
