2018 OUTLOOK Starting with the roster construction, there is a new feeling surrounding the 2018 Northwestern State baseball team. After a year of learning experiences, second-year head coach Bobby Barbier is a year wiser, a year more in tune with being at the helm of his alma mater. “There are a whole bunch of things (you learn in your first year),” he said. “I think you don’t really expect certain things until you’re in the fire. That goes a lot for our team this year, because we have a lot of talented players, a lot of players who had a lot of success in high school and junior college. Now it’s time to see what happens when we throw them into the fire.” Barbier’s second Demons roster is one filled with 18 newcomers, including 11 junior-college products. The last time Northwestern State underwent such a drastic change on its roster, it produced a 14-win turnaround season within the Southland Conference, a league record. “Who knows what success looks like for this team,” Barbier asked. “Why put any limitations on them? Why put a number out there and say we reach it with two weeks left in the season? What do we do then, shut it down? I know getting these guys playing the right way, playing together and working together. That helps you win games, conference championships and go to regionals.” Barbier’s attitude is reflected in the team’s motto for the 2018 season, “Change It.” Beginning with a deeper roster, the Demons will attempt to improve upon a tough 2017 season and return to the Southland Conference Tournament in Sugar Land, Texas. There are building blocks among the upperclassmen, starting with first baseman David Fry, a first-team Rawlings/ABCA All-South Central Region selection as a junior when he hit .340 with 21 doubles, 10 home runs and 44 RBIs. “David’s a great leader,” Barbier said. “Its taken him a little while to come back from his arm injury, but he’ll be healthy enough to play first and second base early in the season. As the season goes along, we can move him around more, which is nice.” Fifth-year senior Kelsey Richard returns behind the plate, looking to recapture the form he flashed while hitting .300 as a sophomore. Outfielder Kwan Adkins, who spent the fall as a wide receiver on the Demons football team, and right-hander Danny Hlad are the team’s only other two seniors. “They have played a lot of baseball,” Barbier said of the quartet. “They’ve had good experiences, they’ve had bad experiences and they should learn from both. The good ones are good because, as they mature and get older, they learn from both and they watch from their mistakes and their success.” Joining Fry at first base are a pair of redshirt freshmen -- Hudson LaBorde and Peyton Davis -- and sophomore Austin Townsend, who played both first base and right field as a redshirt freshman in 2017. “Peyton and Hudson are

competing,” Barbier said. “We’re still tinkering with lineups. All of those guys are still competing for spots, which is good. You’d love to have eight returning starters, but it’s also nice to have competition, which is what we saw this fall and into the spring.” Competition is rife all around the diamond for the Demons. Shortstop Caleb Ricca is back after starting 48 games as a freshman. After showing flashes of offense, Ricca is expected to produce at a higher level in his second season. “He’s healthy,” Barbier said. “He’s a much different player when he’s healthy. He’s a live body, a runner who can really play defense and swing the bat. We saw it last fall, and then he had back problems in the spring. We weren’t deep enough to get him out of there and let him get healthy and his performance suffered.” The addition of Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College transfer Sam Taylor gives the Demons a pair of versatile middle infielders who should be offensive threats as well. “Sam is a plus-plus defender,” Barbier said. “He can run. He can handle the bat. He can play the small game really, really well. He’s been a great addition to the team.” Bossier Parish Community College transfer Austin Stegall could find himself in the mix at second base in addition to playing left field. Lenni Kunert, who delivered several key hits as a redshirt freshman and was an All-Star in the Collegiate League of the Palm Beaches, is another option at second. At third base, redshirt freshman Chaney Dodge and San Jacinto transfer Luke Watson, who hit .400 in each of his two JUCO seasons, are the likely candidates to take over for current graduate manager Matthew Alford, who committed just two errors as a senior at the hot corner. “Chaney has been tremendous,” Barbier said. “He’s worked. It’s not easy for those guys who redshirt. He’s worked for everything he has. Luke has brought out the best in Chaney, and I think Chaney is bringing out the best in Luke, which is good to see. Both of those guys will play at points throughout the season. Luke can move around the middle and play first if needed. I’m really excited about both of those guys.” With Richard behind the plate, the Demons have an experienced anchor for their pitching staff. The fifth-year senior will be tasked with also bringing along freshman Tyler Thibodeaux. “He’s seen it -- all of our seniors have,” Barbier said. “They’ve been through it. We’ve got some wide-eyed freshmen and junior college guys who haven’t seen Division I baseball. Should it change from where they’ve been? It shouldn’t, but it’s hard not to. So it’s good to have some of those guys to bring along some of our new players.” Adkins is the elder statesman of an outfield that is heavy on versatility. Stegall and Townsend can play along the infield while freshman Matt Collins could see time on the mound. “Kwan is obviously a plus-plus defender, the best runner we have and our best outfielder,” Barbier said. “You put him and Tyler Smith out there, they’re going to cover some ground, which as a head coach turned pitching coach, you like to see. “(Stegall) has been a very consistent player. He gives you good at-bats every time. We’re looking for more consistency out of (Townsend). He gives us some options, which is nice to have.” Smith will try to build on a summer that saw him swat 10 home runs in just 23 games, earning Sunflower League All-Star honors. “Had he stayed healthy over the summer, he would have been player of the year,” Barbier said. “I really like his attitude right now. His maturity level and how he approaches the game have changed, which I’m excited about.” Delgado Community College transfer J.P. Lagreco and freshman Larson Fontenot bring different skill sets to the Demons outfield. “J.P. is a hitter,” Barbier said. “He played for Joe Scheuermann at Delgado and hit in the middle of the lineup for two years. He’s an old-school player, no batting gloves.

Demons’ aim: #ChangeIt

He’ll run through a wall to get an out. Our fans are going to love watching him play.” Said Barbier of Fontenot: “He’s a physical kid who can really run. He will be a good player for us. He plays like a freshman, and that’s OK, because he has some guys around him who can teach him.” Barbier will resume his role as pitching coach after a one-season break, calling the decision a natural progression. Barbier will lead a pitching staff that has a core of returners with experience along with several junior-college arms that will provide options for Northwestern State. Junior right-hander Nathan Jones returns after making all 14 starts in his first season in the starting rotation. Jones tossed a team-high 83 1-3 innings as a sophomore before spending three weeks at Driveline Baseball in Seattle during the offseason, plying his craft. “Nate’s been really good for us over the last two years,” Barbier said. “He really dedicates his time to his craft. He’s athletic. He can attack the running game with his feet. There’s a comfort in sending someone like him, who has pitched in big spots, out there on the weekend.” Jones gave the Demons a third straight season of a Friday night starter who took every turn in the rotation in a series opener, joining former All-American Adam Oller. Behind Jones, there is competition for the final two weekend rotation slots Junior college transfers Ridge Heisler (LSU-Eunice) and Jerry Maddox (San Jacinto) as well as freshman Robert Burke (Zachary High School) could find their way into those spots. “Ridge was a really good high school pitcher who tore his labrum playing football,” Barbier said. “I think we’re seeing him getting back to where he was. He’s a mid-to-upper 80s lefty who doesn’t throw anything straight. He’s going to be fun to watch.” Maddox is a right-hander with a four-pitch mix while Burke is a 6-foot-4 righthander with a fastball that already clocks in the low 90s. “He’s what a pitcher looks like,” Barbier said of Burke. “He’s been tremendous. He has such good composure.” Both Hlad and Cullen McDonald could factor in as starters as well. Hlad enjoyed a strong second half of the season while McDonald led the Demons in ERA (4.08) and tossed back-to-back complete games against Incarnate Word and Abilene Christian in May. “Cullen is Cullen,” Barbier said. “He does what he does. He locates a fastball, and when you locate a fastball and throw a lot of strikes like Cullen does, it’s hard to hit. Hitting is tough, and Cullen is the epitome of showing everyone else that. “For whatever reason, it didn’t work for Danny early in the year. Then we saw what he knew he had in him after that. We expect Danny to be a big part of our season.” After having exactly one left-handed pitcher (Devin Bear) on the roster in 2017, Barbier will have several at his disposal this season. Junior-college transfers Tyler Pigott (Southwest Mississippi) and Reed Michel (Jones County) join redshirt freshman Cameron Taylor and freshmen Hayden Dupuy and Tyler Gatewood as left-handed options for Barbier. “Pigott has a really good arm,” Barbier said. “Reed Michel played for a really powerful Jones County program and can really spin a breaking ball. “Hayden Dupuy comes to us from Oak Forest where he was coached by (Natchitoches native) Tony Salim. He’s got a really good breaking ball and has really come along. “Gatewood is a great story, comes from a well-known family here. His dad, Reggie, was an All-American here and his grandfather, Randall Webb, was the university president. He’s come a long way since he got here.” “Cameron’s coming back from arm surgery. He’s done some good things in the fall NCAA Regionals: 1991 • 1994 • 2005

and the early spring.” The Demons will have several right-handers who can fill multiple roles as well. Junior Kyle Swanson led the Demons with four saves last year while classmate Austin Reich is working his way back after missing most of his sophomore season. “Kyle’s been really good so far,” Barbier said. “We made some mechanical changes that he’s welcomed that will be easier on his arm. Hopefully we can use him in a little more limited role than we had to last year. “Not being able to do much last year hurt Austin. We came a long way from when he got her to where he was at the end of his freshman season, and then he had a great summer. For him, it’s about getting innings and being comfortable again in a competitive environment.” They are joined by junior college transfers Jose Vasquez (Grayson College), David Hodo (Hinds Community College), Sam Wallace (Bossier Parish Community College) and freshmen Ty O’Neal and Collins. Vasquez and Hodo are taller right-handers with experience. “Jose’s been as good for our team as he has on the mound,” Barbier said. “He’s already a leader on our pitching staff. He pitches in the upper 80s with three pitches he throws for strikes. He will have a significant role on our team. “Hodo’s a bit of a specialty pitcher. He’s got a really good cutter that gives right-handed hitters tough at-bats. He comes highly recommended from coach (Nick) Ammirati over at Hinds.” Wallace and Collins could see time in multiple roles. “Sam is a great story,” Barbier said. “He paid his way to our camp, which is normally a high school deal. He’s been unbelievable for us. He has one of our best right-handed curveballs and swings the bat. Matt’s been really good, and we expect to find ways for him to contribute.” O’Neal may be the most unique of the Demons pitchers, righties or lefties. “He throws three different pitches from three different arm angles, so technically nine pitches,” Barbier said. “He’s done a really good job for us. He throws a bunch of strikes, and it’s really funky, really different.”

Great Tradition • Brighter Future

Bobby Barbier Head Coach Seventh Season at Northwestern State (Second as head coach) Northwestern State, 2006 As “one of the most respected and revered players in school history” enters his second season at the helm of his alma matter, Bobby Barbier is dedicated to seeing positive change within the Northwestern State baseball program. During his first season, Barbier’s Demons continue to epitomize the term student-athlete while his current first baseman, David Fry, produced the first 20-double, 10-home run season in school history, earning first-team American Baseball Coaches Association/Rawlings All-South Central Region honors. Before becoming the 12th coach in the more than 100 years of Demon baseball history, Barbier spent two stints as an assistant coach with the Demons. He spent the 2015 and 2016 seasons helping the Demons craft two of the lowest ERAs in recent Northwetern State baseball history. After settling into the head coach’s role in 2017, Barbier will again serve as NSU’s pitching coach in 2018. The son of former Nicholls head football coach Darren Barbier was an easy choice to succeed Lane Burroughs. “Bobby was born to be a coach and is the son of a coach,” said NSU Director of Athletics Greg Burke during Barbier’s introductory news conference in June 2016. “He has the work ethic, interpersonal skills, baseball knowledge and, as a Demon baseball alumnus, a unique level of passion for the program, which will enable him to sustain and even enhance the team’s success level.” In addition to helping guide ace Adam Oller to a pair of All-American selections, Barbier’s tutelage led the Demons staff to a 3.01 ERA that ranked ninth nationally. Barbier directed Oller to a season in which he went 8-1, posted a 1.23 ERA (third-lowest nationally) and earned Southland Conference Pitcher of the Year honors, along with All-American nods from Louisville Slugger/Collegiate Baseball magazine and the American Baseball Coaches Association. In his first season, Barbier helped the NSU staff post a 3.55 ERA while Josh Oller became the program’s first 10-game winner in 11 years and Brandon Smith tied the program record for single-season saves (10). The overall ERA marked an improvement of more than one run from 2014 and was the lowest mark since 2002 (3.54). Forming successful pitchers stood in opposition to what Barbier did while wearing a Demon uniform. Barbier, the 2006 Southland Conference Scholar Athlete of the Year, played four seasons for the Demons, finishing his career ranked in the top 10 in eight offensive categories. He remains second in NSU history in hit by pitches. After spending the 2007 season as a student assistant and the following two seasons as an assistant coach, Barbier joined former NSU head coach Mitch Gaspard’s staff at the University of Alabama, where he spent five seasons as the Crimson Tide’s third base coach. While at Alabama, Barbier coached five All-Southeastern Conference selections, including Academic All-American Taylor Dugas. Twelve Alabama players were selected in the Major League Baseball First-Year Player Draft during Barbier’s Crimson Tide tenure. Barbier was part of a Crimson Tide coaching staff that led Alabama to four regional appearances from 2010-14, including the Atlanta Regional championship and a berth in the 2010 Clemson Super Regional. Barbier’s responsibilities at Alabama included coaching outfielders, assisting with catchers and infielders, directing camps and scouting and being heavily involved nsudemons.com // @NSUDemonsBsB

in recruiting. Barbier also was the staff’s academic coordinator. Barbier was a key contributor on the field as Alabama’s defense set a school record for fielding percentage in 2011. During his first stint as a Demons assistant, Barbier coached NSU infielders and hitters as well as acting as the team’s base running coordinator. Under his tutelage, NSU led the Southland Conference in stolen bases with 99. Barbier also coordinated travel, field mainteance and team academics as an NSU assistant. In his Demons playing career, Barbier epitomized the term student-athlete. In addition to being awarded the Southland’s top individual academic honor, Barbier was a 2004 Academic All-American and a part of the 2005 Southland Conference All-Academic Team. On the field, Barbier saw the majority of his playing time at first base, earning honorable mention all-conference accolades in 2004 and first-team All-Southland honors in 2005, while helping lead NSU to the 2005 Southland Conference title and a berth in the NCAA Baton Rouge Regional. Even though his playing career ended nearly a decade ago, the left-handed-hitting Barbier still ranks in the career top 10 in hit by pitches (2nd, 44), RBIs (4th, 130), games played (7th, 209), doubles (T-10th, 33), hits (10th, 181) and total bases (10th, 267). During his college career, Barbier laid the foundation for his future career, coaching American Legion ball for three years (2005-07) in Natchitoches and in his hometown of Lafayette, directing each of his teams to regional tournament berths. Barbier earned his bachelor’s degree in health and human performance from Northwestern State in December 2006. He is married to the former Kody Sprout and the couple has one daughter, Landry.

Head baseball coach Bobby Barbier (third from left) poses with former Northwestern State President Dr. Jim Henderson, Barbier’s wife, Kody, and Director of Athletics Greg Burke (far right) after being named the 12th baseball coach in school history in June 2017.

“Bobby has many of the qualities you would like to see in a successful head coach. He has a clear plan and vision for the direction of where he wants to take the program, and he will deliver a continued message for the players to follow. During his time with me as both a player at Northwestern State and coach at Alabama, Bobby has always been a tremendous communicator. This will take effect in the way he molds his program with the community, administration, coaches, players and recruits. Being the son of a coach, Bobby displayed elite leadership skills at a very young age in his playing career for me. “I feel one of the top qualities a person can have is being ‘trustworthy.’ In my years of being a head coach Bobby was one of the most trustworthy players and coaches that I have had in my 27 years in the profession. I have no doubt that everyone in his program will develop an endless trust in his words and actions that will lead to success both on the diamond and in real life.” - Mitch Gaspard, associate head coach Kansas State, former Alabama and Northwestern State head coach NCAA Regionals: 1991 • 1994 • 2005

For their efforts, which included a 34-12 record and ASC regular-season and tournament championships, Bertrand and his staff were named the 2015 ASC Coaching Staff of the Year. Bertrand’s Patriots teams were familiar with success on and off the diamond. In his first season, Bertrand had 13 players named Academic All-ASC while 12 of his players earned All-ASC East Division honors, including East Division Player of the Year Kevan House. House was a first-team All-Region selection that year while teammates Chance Cotton (second team) and Isaac Tijerina (third team) also earned all-region honors.

In addition to coaching at UT Tyler, Bertrand was the athletic department’s director of external marketing where he enhanced the game day experience for all Patriots athletics and enhanced the exposure and aesthetics of the UT Tyler athletic facilities. Prior to his tenure at UT Tyler, Bertrand spent seven seasons as the pitching coach and associate head coach at LSU-Shreveport, helping the Pilots reach the NAIA World Series in back-to-back seasons (2011, 2012). His 2012 staff held the school records for shutouts (13) and ERA (3.10) until 2015. It still owns the school mark for strikeouts (476). Bertrand helped coach right-hander Jared Mortensen, a current Houston Astros farmhand, to first-team All-America honors in 2012 and tutored 10 first-team all-conference pitchers in his LSUS tenure.

Taylor Dugas Assistant Coach Second Season at Northwestern State Alabama, 2012 After a year as Northwestern State’s volunteer assistant coach, former major league outfielder Taylor Dugas embarks on his first season as a full-time member of the Demons coaching staff, bringing with him a combination of grit and excitability. While working with the Demons hitters and outfielders in 2017, Dugas helped junior David Fry compile the first 20-double, 10-home run season in program history. Thanks to a season in which he batted .340 and won the team’s triple crown, Fry was named the first-team American Baseball Coaches Association All-South Central Region first baseman and second-team All-Southland Conference and All-Louisiana. As the Demons outfielders coach, Dugas was pivotal in the development of a group of young players that, at times, saw freshmen comprising all three outfield spots. Dugas, a Lafayette native and Teurlings Catholic High product, was a fouryear letterman at Alabama, setting school records for hits (334), singles (235), doubles (67) and triples (18). He was a two-time, eighth-round draft pick (Chicago Cubs, 2011, New York Yankees 2012) and reached the major leagues with the Yankees in 2015. After signing with the Yankees organization in 2012, Dugas played four seasons, twice topping 100 hits. During his professional career, Dugas batted .283 and drew 195 walks while striking out just 171 times. In addition to his duties as the hitting coach, Dugas will work with the Demons outfielders and assist with baserunning coaching. “Taylor’s one of my all-time favorites that I’ve ever coached,” said head coach Bobby Barbier, who mentored Dugas during the latter’s career at Alabama. “He embodies the grit we’re trying to impart on our guys and how we want to play. He was a great hitter. He has tons of experience working with great hitting coaches. It’s a unique situation and a blessing to get someone of Taylor’s quality. It’s a great fit for us.” Dugas and Brae Gaspard, daughter of former Northwestern State head coach and current Kansas State associate head coach Mitch Gaspard, were engaged in December.

NSU A COACHES’ PIPELINE TO SEC

Northwestern State baseball has enjoyed a tremendous run of success in the past three decades, molded by head coaches and assistants who have climbed the ladder to the highest levels of college baseball. Entering the 2018 season, three of the 14 head coaches in the Southeastern Conference, widely regarded as the toughest conference in college baseball, spent part of their careers on the Demons staff. Additionally, former Demons skipper Jim Wells helped build Alabama into a national power, leading the Crimson Tide to the 1996 College World Series championship game and was succeeded by Mitch Gaspard, who is now the associate head coach at Kansas State. The three current SEC coaches with Northwestern State ties have combined for a trio of College World Series appearances at their current schools. Van Horn led Nebraska to back-to-back CWS appearances in 2001 and 2002 before taking the Arkansas job between the 2002 and 2003 seasons. Additionally, former Demons skipper John Cohen is in his first full academic year as the Mississippi State director of athletics, overseeing the department after eight years as the Bulldogs baseball coach.

Well into its sixth decade of service, the Southland Conference continues to be a model of innovation, stability and consistent achievement as it celebrates the academic and athletic accomplishments of its member institutions and approximately 4,200 student-athletes. Having commemorated its 50th anniversary in 2013, the Southland Conference has transformed itself into a dynamic and respected consortium of 13 member universities in three states. Beginning with a historic meeting of five institutions in Dallas on March 15, 1963, the Southland Conference set on an extraordinary course that has proven successful well into the 21st Century. The successful transformation continues, as the Southland Conference welcomed four additional members in 2013: Abilene Christian University, Houston Baptist University, the University of Incarnate Word in San Antonio, and the University of New Orleans. In addition to its newest members, the Southland also consists of the University of Central Arkansas, Lamar University, McNeese State University, Nicholls State University, Northwestern State University, Sam Houston State University, Southeastern Louisiana University, Stephen F. Austin State University and Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi. An original Southland member from 1963-73, Abilene Christian rejoined the league as one of the most decorated athletic programs in NCAA history, and the addition of Houston Baptist, UIW and New Orleans gives the Southland a regular competitive presence in the key metropolitan areas of Houston, San Antonio and New Orleans. Southland cities encompass approximately 14 million people, and six of its television markets rank among the top 100 in the U.S. All told, the membership of the Southland encompasses nearly 140,000 current students and an alumni base of nearly 800,000. 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), Major League Baseball star Wade Miley (Southeastern Louisiana), NBA legend Scottie Pippen (Central Arkansas), and track and field Olympians Kenta Bell (Northwestern State), and Bobby Morrow and Billy Olson (both Abilene Christian). Other notable alums from current members include Grammy Award-winning musicians Frank Ocean (New Orleans), Don Henley

BROWN-STROUD

Field

H O M E O F T H E N O R T H W E S T E R N S TAT E D E M O N S BUILT IN 1939... Named for the first two head baseball coaches in school history -- C.C. Stroud (1912-30) and H. Alvin “Cracker” Brown (1949-66) -- Brown-Stroud Field has been the home to nine Southland Conference championship teams. The facility has undergone significant changes in the past few years with the 2017 addition of the Demon Cooking Club area enhancing the stadium even further. Along with a grandstand that seats 1,200, there is hillside seating along both baselines, giving fans some of the best sightlines in the Southland Conference. Fitting for a program that relishes high-level competition, Brown-Stroud Field has hosted College World Series programs LSU, Alabama, Arkansas, TCU, UL Lafayette, Nebraska and Missouri State as well as Missouri, Houston, Kansas State, Oral Roberts. Brown-Stroud also was home to Brian Lawrence, who pitched for the Demons in the 1997 and 98 seasons before anchoring the San Diego Padres starting rotation in the early-to-mid-2000s.

Cracker Brown (second from right) is one of the stadium namesakes for Brown-Stroud Field. He is standing with three other namesakes (L-R) Walter P. Ledet (track complex), Harry Turpin (football stadium), H. Lee Prather (basketball coliseum)

DEMON BASEBALL... A HIT SINCE 1912 All-Americans. Conference championships. NCAA Regional appearances. All of the above have been part of the tradition that is Northwestern State baseball, a program that has made its share of headlines and memories in the last eight decades. NSU’s baseball tradition dates to 1912, when the first incarnation of the Louisiana Normal nine won 7 of its 11 games. With the exception of a 18-year gap from 1930-1948, the diamond Demons have written a legacy of success for the better part of a century. Individual accomplishments have blended into team success, creating a program that has enjoyed a run as one of the best in the Southland Conference in the last three decades. Numerous All-Americans have donned the Purple and White, beginning with Danny Turner in 1967 when the Demons competed at the NAIA level. Darryl Woods bridged the gap between the NCAA and NAIA eras, earning All-American honors after belting a school-record 19 home runs. Outfielder Terry Joseph was a two-time Academic All-American (1993, 1995) and ranks 9th in career batting average. Pitcher Reggie Gatewood was named a second-team All-American by the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association in 1994 after posting an 11-3 record and a 2.14 ERA. Shortstop Ryan Anholt earned third-team All-American honors from the American Baseball Coaches Association in 1998 when he batted .417 with 15 home runs and 71 RBIs in his junior season. Three Demons pitchers have earned Freshman All-American honors – Kyle Broughton and Dereck Cloeren in 2005 and Adam Oller in 2014. One of the most decorated runs in NSU baseball history began with its entrance into the Southland Conference, a league the Demons have called home for the past 27 seasons. In that time, the Demons have accumulated 49 first-team All-Southland Conference selections, seven Coach of the Year awards, four Pitcher of the Year honors, two Hitter of the Year awardees, eight Newcomer or Freshman of the Year winners and one Relief Pitcher of the Year. As a team, the Demons have captured 10 conference championships. Included in that grouping is a run of three straight SLC titles (1993-95) that has been accomplished by just two other Southland school. Perhaps more impressive than the sheer volume of championships is Northwestern State’s three NCAA Regional appearances during their Southland Conference membership. Each time the Demons have advanced to NCAA postseason play, they have done so as an at-large team, speaking to their ability to put together impressive regular seasons. In 1991, coach Jim Wells’ Demons earned the first NCAA Regional berth in school history and were placed in the NCAA South II Regional in Baton Rouge. The Demons fell to eventual national champion LSU, 11-2, and were edged by UL Lafayette, 11-7. Three years later, Wells’ Demons earned another at-large bid and were placed in the Midwest I Regional in Stillwater, Okla. After dropping the opener to perennial national power Cal State Fullerton, 11-3, NSU earned its first NCAA Regional victory, as Gatewood overpowered Illinois State, 8-2. NSU fell to Memphis, 14-9, ending its season with a school-record 45 victories. Wells’ success led him to become the head coach at Alabama, ushering in a flood of NSU coaches who took control of Southeastern Conference programs. Currently, former NSU coaches are head coaches at Arkansas (Dave Van Horn), Mississippi State (John Cohen), Ole Miss (Mike Bianco) and Texas A&M (Rob Childress). The Demons’ decade of dominance continued in 1996 with two wins at eventual national champion LSU. Two years later, NSU notched its sixth Southland title and fourth 40-win season of the 1990s. NSU closed the decade with a 38-21 campaign in 1999. Included in that season were wins against LSU and UCLA. The Demons closed the decade with a .658 winning percentage, which ranked 23rd in the nation. The 2000s brought continued success with a seventh Southland title in 2001. That season, NSU defeated LSU, 10-8, in front of a record crowd of 4,214 screaming Demons fans at Brown-Stroud Field. NSU repeated as Southland champions in 2002, winning 43 games in Gaspard’s first season. The Demons cracked the national top 25 for the first time in school history, reaching No. 23 in the Collegiate Baseball poll. NSU’s 2005 season was simply overpowering, as the Demons racked up 22 Southland wins and won the conference by five games, the largest margin in Southland history. NSU earned the third NCAA Regional trip in school history, traveling to Baton Rouge where it fell to nationally ranked Rice, 7-3, in its opening game before recovering to beat Marist, 4-3. NSU fell to state rival LSU, 12-4, in its next regional game. In 2010, NSU tied its school record for conference wins with 22 and added victories against nationally ranked Southern Mississippi and Texas A&M. Four Demons earned first-team All-Southland Conference honors and the conference named Chad Sheppard its Relief Pitcher of the Year. The next three seasons were uncharacteristically trying for the Demons, who nevertheless had three players drafted in 2012, including second-round pick Mason Melotakis (Minnesota). The hiring of Lane Burroughs, a Mississippi State assistant under Cohen, signaled a return to form for the Demons program. After going 16-40 in his first season, Burroughs engineered a remarkable turnaround, winning 17 more games in his second season. NSU also authored the largest single-season turnaround in Southland Conference history, increasing its conference win total from 5 to 19. The follow-up season included another improvement as NSU bumped its winning percentage from .559 to .574 and saw outfielder Cort Brinson earn Southland Conference Hitter and Student-Athlete of the Year honors. In what turned out to be Burroughs’ final season, NSU added to its All-American legacy in 2016 as righthander Adam Oller was tabbed by both the American Baseball Coaches Association and Collegiate Baseball magazine. Oller was one of three Demons drafted (Nick Heath, Daniel Garner) from an NSU team that won its final 10 Southland Conference games of the year, setting a school record for consecutive conference victories, one that remains active entering the 2017 season. Former NSU Academic All-American Bobby Barbier took the reins of his alma mater’s program prior to 2017 and began putting his stamp on the program. A tough 2017 season as a team had its highlights, including first baseman David Fry’s ABCA First-Team All-South Central Region selection.

Dr. Chris Maggio

Northwestern State President

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

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

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

Jerry Pierce

Vice President • External Affairs Only a couple of people have served Northwestern State as long as alumnus Jerry Pierce has, and nobody has done so in a more understated manner. In his 52nd year on the university’s staff, Pierce’s impact on NSU and the city of Natchitoches is indelible. He’s never wanted or gotten top billing, but consistently, he gets results to benefit the university. He is in his 27th year as vice president of external affairs at Northwestern. A significant aspect of his job is oversight of intercollegiate athletics. Pierce works closely with athletic director Greg Burke and all NSU coaches and staff members to keep Northwestern athletics competing at a championship level week after week, month after month and year after year. Pierce, an avid tennis player, has been a member of USTA teams that have won more than a dozen state championships, five regional titles and one national championship. Well before moving into the executive position, Pierce had already served his alma mater, adopted hometown and state with distinction. In his role as vice president, he NSU Athletic Council oversees university operations in athletics, alumni and development, public and media relations and assists President Dr. Chris Maggio in governJody Biscoe (Chair) mental affairs activities. Many of those duties were his since the 1970s as Hall Adams Kwan Adkins (Student-Athlete) he worked under six previous presidents as Northwestern advanced from Angela Bolton NAIA to NCAA College Division to NCAA Division I athletic status in 1977. Sid Hall A 1961 graduate of Northwestern, Pierce served as trainer/manager Aaron Johnson for the Demon football team during his college years, working closely with Damon Jones legendary coach Jack Clayton. After earning his journalism degree, Pierce Dr. Theresa Kyzar went to work for the New Orleans Times Picayune, serving as a reporter Lori LeBlanc and editor. He was named executive sports editor at the age of 24. Chris Lyles In 1965, he chose to raise his two sons in Natchitoches and returned Jacqueline Manza to NSU as sports information director. He was promoted to news bureau di(Student-Athlete) rector two years later and assumed additional responsibilities in athletics, Dr. Jim Mischler alumni affairs and other areas through the years.

He estabRoxanne Freeman lished annual induction activities that remain in place nearly five decades Dr. Chris Maggio later, serving as director of the Hall for 19 years until his promotion to vice Kaitlyn McCanna president in April 1990 forced him to step aside from the volunteer post. Dr. Patrice Moulton He helped guide Northwestern into three athletic conferences (Trans Dr. Vicki Parrish America, 1979; Gulf Star, 1983; Southland, 1987) and NCAA Division I staJerry Pierce tus in 1977. He is a past president of the Southland and has served the conference through other offices and committee positions. In 1994, he was named one of Louisiana’s 20 most influential sports figures by the Times-Picayune. Also on the list were New Orleans Saints owner Tom Benson, LSU athletic director Joe Dean and basketball coach Dale Brown, and Grambling football coaching legend Eddie Robinson. His salesmanship and managerial skills were instrumental in convincing Tri-Star Productions to film the 1989 smash hit movie “Steel Magnolias,” with an all-star cast including Julia Roberts, Sally Field and Dylan McDermott in Natchitoches and on the NSU campus. The movie’s impact on tourism in Natchitoches continues to resonate nearly three decades later. Pierce is regarded as one of the most effective legislative liaisons for Louisiana’s higher education system. He has been also a master of ceremonies and speaker who has enlivened hundreds of events since 1965. In addition to his administrative responsibilities, Pierce is a tenured member of the Journalism Department faculty. He is the author of one book and editor of two others and has written thousands of editorials, columns, features and other articles for newspapers and magazines. Pierce and his wife Regina, a retired teacher and also a tennis buff, live on Cane River Lake in Natchitoches. He has two sons, Randy and Rick, both NSU graduates; three grandchildren, twins Evan and Amanda, 28, and Miranda, 17; and two great-grandchildren; he has two adult stepchildren, Nicholas and Natalie. He’s a doting “Poppy” to Natalie’s preschool daughters. NCAA Regionals: 1991 • 1994 • 2005

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

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

He also has served on the NCAA Championships/Sports Management Cabinet.

He has served as a site supervisor for Football Championship Subdivision playoff games across the nation, and he is regarded as one of the country’s premiere advocates of FCS football. In 2005, Burke was one of three recipients of the All-America Football Foundation’s Gen. Robert R. Neyland Outstanding Athletic Director Award and that same year, was also tabbed as one of two Natchitoches Parish Cenla Newsmakers of 2005 by the Alexandria Town Talk newspaper’s editorial staff. He received the 2006 “Outstanding Alumni Award” from his alma mater, Marlington High School in Alliance, Ohio, recognizing his community service and professional achievements. At the time, Burke became one of only 21 alumni honored since the award was instituted in 1982. Burke serves on the Natchitoches Convention and Visitors Bureau board, and on the board of directors for the Central Louisiana Community Foundation. He is a past president of the Natchitoches Kiwanis Club and remains active in that civic group. He has also been part of the steering committee for the Natchitoches Christmas Festival and is a former member of the Natchitoches Area Jaycees. He has been involved with the American Heart Association and was 2010 March of Dimes chairman locally. His wife, Susu, is a Natchitoches native, NSU graduate and an elementary teacher.
