The University

Eastern Kentucky University is known as the Campus Beautiful, and for good reason. The EKU campus is one of the most scenic college campuses in the nation and it features several striking features. From the James E. van Peursem Music Pavilion and the Ravine, to the Chapel of Meditation and the Keen Johnson Building, EKU features some of the most diverse and attractive locales on any college campus anywhere. However strong Eastern Kentucky University’s reputation is for its visual aesthetics, the real character of the University can be found in its students, faculty and staff, and outstanding academic programs. EKU offers more than 160 degree programs and features an excellent 17-1 student-to-faculty ratio. The University serves more than 16,000 students, which represent almost all 120 counties in Kentucky, all 50 states and more than 60 countries worldwide. The University, which celebrated its centennial in the spring of 2006, had humble beginnings. EKU’s origins can be traced back to a conflict between the northern and southern branches of Kentucky’s Presbyterian Church. A group of alumni and supporters from the Southern branch lost control of Centre College in Danville and set out to start their own institution of higher learning. From that conflict, Central College was chartered in 1873 and the school opened in September of 1874. Financial problems led to Central College’s consolidation into Centre College in 1901, but Richmond’s place in higher education did not move with Central College. Walters Collegiate Institute offered a preparatory curriculum for college-bound men and served as a transitional institution between Central College and what would become Eastern Kentucky University. In 1906, the Kentucky General Assembly approved a bill that would establish two normal schools in the eastern and western parts of the state in order to prepare teachers to enter the classroom. The eastern school, which was located in Richmond, was called the Eastern Kentucky State Normal School, later evolving into the regional institution now known as Eastern Kentucky University. Modern-day EKU now encompasses three branch campuses in Corbin, Danville and Manchester. The University also boasts one of the state’s strongest distance learning programs, giving students from around the world an opportunity to receive an EKU education. EKU is also home to the College of Justice and Safety, which educates students from around the world. As EKU’s Program of Distinction, the College of Justice and Safety is involved in numerous worldwide research projects. It also educates a vast majority of the law enforcement officers in the Commonwealth. The University also boasts 17 championship sports at the NCAA’s Division I level, competing in the Ohio Valley Conference. The Colonels’ history includes several national championships, conference titles and NCAA tournament appearances. However, the best is yet to come as the school’s athletic department is committed to ensuring that EKU student-athletes are given the necessary resources to continue to compete at a national level. All told, Eastern Kentucky University provides a safe and attractive environment in which its students can learn and become productive members of society. The lessons learned at EKU will follow students for a lifetime and the performance of its graduates will, in turn, continue to enhance the already strong regional and national reputation of the University.

City of Richmond Richmond is home to many interesting and convenient activities. Whether it’s arts and entertainment, recreation, or shopping and dining out you are looking for, Richmond has it all. With more than 100 buildings in Richmond on the National Register of Historic Places and three areas on the National Register of Historic Districts, it is one of Kentucky’s finest restored 19th Century commercial districts. Arts and entertainment take center-stage with the EKU Center for the Arts. Its grand opening in 2011-12 featured such acts as Wynonna Judd, Peter Frampton, Jerry Seinfeld, Willie Nelson, Aretha Franklin and Disney’s Beauty and the Beast. With 2,100 seats, the theater is the largest performing arts venue in Central Kentucky — larger than Lexington’s Singletary Center for the Arts at the University of Kentucky and Danville’s Norton Center for the Arts at Centre College. There is never any lack of recreational activities in Richmond. An array of parks and recreational centers across the city offers something for everyone. Lake Reba Recreational Complex includes golf, little league baseball and softball fields, soccer, fishing and a water park which opened in the summer of 2008. If it’s shopping you want, downtown Richmond can accommodate you. Locally owned businesses line the historic streets of downtown Richmond with everything from fine antiquities to exquisite jewelry. There is a wide variety of stores at the brand new Richmond Centre as well. The outdoor mall offers shoppers convenience and style. Dining isn’t hard to find either. Family-owned and major chain restaurants give Richmond a unique variety of menus. Local hot spots include Madison Gardens, which is uniquely Richmond, to restaurants such as Olive Garden, Logan’s Roadhouse, O’Charley’s and Outback Steakhouse. Whatever your pallet craves, Richmond dining offers a variety of tastes made to satisfy. Never far from mainstream, Richmond offers the comforts of simplicity with the convenience of the city. Only 29 miles from Lexington and the Bluegrass Airport, Richmond is easily accessible to all travelers. Interstate 75 is a major artery of both state and national motor transportation. Richmond’s location on I-75 makes it an important factor in making the city a commercial hub. In fact, the ease of travel to and from Richmond makes the city an ideal spot for those who enjoy outdoor activities. Fort Boonesborough State Park is located only 12 miles from EKU’s campus, while Natural Bridge State Park (63 miles) and Cumberland Falls State Park (100 miles) are located nearby. Also within easy driving distance of Richmond are the Kentucky Horse Park, the state capital in Frankfort, Herrington Lake, My Old Kentucky Home at Bardstown, White Hall State Shrine and thoroughbred horse racing at Keeneland.

A Brief Richmond History Richmond was founded in 1798 by Colonel John Miller, a Revolutionary War soldier. In 1798, the Kentucky Legislature authorized the moving of the Madison County seat from nearby Milford to land owned by Colonel Miller. The move was bitterly opposed by about 300 residents of the Milford area and a fight to retain the seat resulted between Dave Kennedy, who represented the Milford location, and William Kearly, who represented the new site. Although history does not record the results of the brawl, the county approved the move in March of 1798 and two acres of land were purchased from Colonel Miller. Court was held in his barn. On July 4, 1798, the site was officially named Richmond in honor of Miller’s birthplace, Richmond, Va.

COLONELS

Season Outlook The 2013 softball season could be one of rejuvenation for the Eastern Kentucky University Colonels. It has been a few years since EKU has been in contention for an Ohio Valley Conference title and the Colonels last captured the league crown back in 2004. However, signs are certainly pointing up for this group of Colonels. “If our freshmen produce, we stay healthy and we play consistent softball, I believe we will be in the OVC hunt at the end of the season,” EKU head coach Jane Worthington said. The strength of 2013 OVC Predicted Order of Finish this year’s team is the East Division pitching staff. SophoTeam Points more Leanna Pittsen1. Jacksonville State (21) 130 barger set a program 2. Tennessee Tech (2) 103 single-season record 3. Eastern Kentucky (1) 99 with 43 appearances 4. Morehead State 60 as a true freshman 5. Belmont 54 while ranking fifth in 6.

Eastern Illinois (6) 111 Worthington plenty of 3. Murray State (3) 94 options to use on the 4. SIUE 71 mound. 5. Southeast Missouri (1) 61 “I don’t think we’ve 6. Austin Peay 30 ever had as much *selected by head coaches and SIDs pitching depth as we do this year,” said Worthington, who is now in her 21st season as Eastern’s head coach. Eastern Kentucky returns seven of nine position starters from the 2012 squad that finished fifth in the OVC with a 16-13 record. EKU’s 2012 offense was one of the most potent in the league as it ranked second in home runs (40) and third in batting average (.281). Two all-conference performers will once again suit up for Eastern Kentucky this spring – senior Raquel Howes and sophomore Katie Tackett. Howes earned first team All-OVC honors last year after setting program single-season records in home runs (16) and RBIs (54). Meanwhile, Tackett gives the Colonels some added pop in the middle of the line-up. The sophomore was among the OVC leaders in home runs (12), walks (32) and RBIs (42) one year ago. “We have some leaders who have developed over the course of the last year who have taken ownership of the team,” Worthington said. “I really like the cohesiveness this group seems to have.”

Fellow sophomore Shannon McQueen joined Mitchell on the left side of the infield for every game one year ago and is expected to contribute at third base again this season. Redshirt freshman Haley Schenasi, a BYU transfer, and freshman Sarah Fobbs could also see some playing time around the infield in 2013. Worthington plans to move Tackett behind the plate full time this year. Tackett split time between first base and catcher as a freshman. Senior Cheyanne Pounds gives the squad another option at catcher. Pounds notched 43 starts at the position last year, but finished with a .155 batting average. The Outfield Two of the three EKU starters in the outfield from 2012 are back with the team this spring – senior Melissa Costa and junior Nicole Heitz. Costa started 31 games as a junior, most of which came towards the end of the season in center field. Heitz came on strong down the stretch last year and finished first on the team in batting average (.392). The right fielder hit safely in 13 of her final 15 games. Senior Carissa Reisinger, who also saw significant time in the outfield last year, will compete for playing time in center field. Reisinger was among the team leaders in stolen bases and runs scored as a junior. A pair of freshmen will be in the outfield mix as well. Fobbs, a very versatile player, was an all-conference performer at Lakewood (Calif.) High and helped her prep team win a pair of league championships. Meanwhile, Kayla Joyce hit better than .400 in each of her final two seasons at John F. Kennedy (Calif.) High. Fobbs is expected to occupy left field while Joyce is slated to be a center fielder. The Pitching Staff Eastern’s pitching staff features a mix of experience and youth. Pittsenbarger was EKU’s number one option as a true freshman in 2012 with the Colonels going 16-16 in her starts. Pittsenbarger offers speed, pinpoint control and a wide variety of pitches. Robb had glimpses of excellence as a freshman as well. She went 8.0 innings and struck out seven batters in the win over No. 5 Missouri last February. Senior Kristin Perry is the most experienced pitcher on the staff. She has struck out 263 batters while making 50 starts in her collegiate career. Perry led the team in strikeouts and wins in each of her first two seasons on the squad. New to the Eastern Kentucky staff this year is Flynn. The native of Chandlersville, Ohio was a three-time all-state performer at Philo High and had a career prep ERA under 0.90.

The Infield Howes will anchor the infield at second base. The senior has started 156 games in her three years at Eastern Kentucky and owns the program career record for home runs (31). Junior Christina Ciolek will be in a new spot this spring. Ciolek earned 45 starts in the outfield or as a designated hitter as a sophomore, but is expected to line up at first base this season. “Ciolek has a better understanding of the game and has developed into one of our leaders, which should help her performance on the field,” Worthington said. Sophomore Lauren Mitchell, one of the team’s most improved players from 2012 to 2013, can be utilized at shortstop or third base. Mitchell started every game at shortstop as a true freshman and ranked third on the team with 17 walks.

The Schedule The addition of Belmont to the OVC has allowed the conference to split the league into divisions. Eastern Kentucky, along with Belmont, Jacksonville State, Morehead State, Tennessee State and Tennessee Tech, are in the East Division. The West Division is comprised of Austin Peay, Eastern Illinois, Murray State, SIUE, Southeast Missouri and UT Martin. The season-ending OVC tournament has expanded from six to eight teams in 2013. “Our non-conference schedule has plenty of top teams and will show us exactly where we are heading into OVC play,” Worthington said. “If we take care of ourselves, I think we can do well and be a factor in the league this year.”

Coaching Staff coaching ranks, Worthington taught junior high school in Idaho. Worthington, a 1982 graduate of Utah State, helped the Aggies capture the 1981 national championship with a win over CalState Fullerton in the finals. Winning a championship as a player, Worthington knows what it takes to be a winner and has successfully instilled those beliefs in her players. As a result, a large number of her former players have followed her lead and entered the coaching profession. A strong supporter in the growth of fast-pitch softball in Kentucky, Worthington has provided numerous opportunities for individuals to enhance their softball skills at clinics and camps. On a yearly basis, she hosts player development clinics and camps to help fast-pitch softball develop throughout the state. Worthington believes in giving all players the chance to increase their skills and attempts to keep costs low so that everyone interested can attend. In addition, she believes in devoting personal attention to each participant and as a result, tries to keep the number of participants low by scheduling multiple events. Worthington has instructed more than 3,000 players at the Eastern Kentucky camps and clinics throughout the years and has helped raise the level of play in Kentucky and surrounding states. In 1996, Worthington was given the state’s Citizen for Sports Equity Outstanding College Coach Award. The Colonels’ coach also stresses the importance of academics and expects her players to excel in the classroom. Worthington feels that a balance can be achieved, and with good management skills, her student-athletes can succeed in the classroom and on the playing field. Her close work with the Chad Bratzke StudentAthlete Academic Success Center has resulted in many past EKU softball players being recognized as Colonel Scholars. This past summer, both Leanna Pittsenbarger and Shaylon Robb received the OVC Medal of Honor for recording a perfect 4.0 GPA in 201112. In 2002, Elise Burch became Eastern’s first softball Academic All-American. After graduation, Worthington’s past players have entered the professional fields of law, criminal justice, education, business, aviation and coaching. Worthington earned a master’s degree in Sports Studies from Miami (Ohio) in 1991.

Head Coach • 21st Year at EKU (535-527)

Jane Worthington Alma Mater: Utah State, 1982  2004, 2002 OVC Coach of the Year Jane Worthington has been committed to the success of Eastern Kentucky softball since its inception in 1993, and the rewards continue to mount. The Washington, Utah native is entering her 21st year with the Colonels and has guided the squad to two OVC titles (2002, 2004) and two NCAA tournament appearances (2002, 2004). The expectations as always remain high for the 2013 team which is filled with seven returning position starters and two starting pitchers. Since taking over the helm of the Colonels’ program, Worthington has posted an impressive 535-527 overall mark and an even more striking 262-198 mark in Ohio Valley Conference play. The Colonels have earned a spot in 16 of the 19 OVC tournaments since the event began in 1994. Throughout her career, Worthington has produced several standout players as three Colonels have been named OVC Player of the Year and four players have earned Freshman of the Year recognition. Thirty-one All-OVC first team players and 30 second team selections have worn an EKU jersey as well. Worthington maintains that the only way to improve is to play the best possible teams in the country. Her Eastern squads have faced numerous nationally-ranked opponents, which includes a satisfying 6-5 upset over No. 5 Missouri last year. EKU also faced No. 17 UCLA and No. 23 North Carolina at the 2012 Long Beach Invitational. Other notable games include a 4-3 victory over No. 7 South Carolina in 1995 and a showdown with top-ranked UCLA in the 2002 NCAA regionals. Worthington, the only coach in the program’s history, has built the program from the ground up, starting in her first year at EKU with the construction of Gertrude Hood Field. Eastern’s first season of competition occurred in the spring of 1993 with Worthington leading the team to an 11-26 record. In just its third year, the program posted its first-ever winning season (31-29) and advanced to the finals of the OVC tournament. Worthington then led Eastern Kentucky to another winning season in 1998, ending with 38 wins, and reached a career milestone with her 200th victory in 2001. The 2002 Colonels rolled through the league with a 16-2 conference record and captured the program’s first OVC title with a 7-4 victory over Tennessee Tech. That win also propelled Eastern Kentucky to its first-ever NCAA tournament. Two years later, EKU posted its most wins ever (42) on the way to another NCAA tournament appearance. Worthington won OVC Coach of the Year accolades in both 2002 and 2004. Worthington’s 400th career win at Eastern Kentucky came as the Colonels advanced to the title contest of the 2006 conference championship. She reached another milestone on March 20, 2011 when she picked up her 500th career victory thanks to a 9-4 triumph over Austin Peay. Prior to Eastern Kentucky, Worthington spent two years as an assistant coach at Miami (Ohio) and one year as an assistant at Livingston University in Alabama. Before entering the collegiate

Coaching Staff / Ohio Valley Conference

“I am excited we were able to find someone with Lacy’s knowledge of the game, work ethic and energy,” head coach Jane Worthington said. “She is a great addition and will make a positive difference in our program.” Prior to entering the collegiate coaching ranks, Wood spent three years as the head softball coach at Presentation Academy (2009-11) in Louisville. Wood had a stellar collegiate career as a catcher for Louisville from 2003-06. The two-time captain earned all-conference accolades for three consecutive years and was selected as a first team All-American in her senior season. Wood graduated from UofL in 2006 with a bachelor’s degree in sociology.

Assistant Coach • 1st Year at EKU

Lacy Wood Alma Mater: Louisville, 2006 Lacy Wood has joined the Colonel coaching staff for the upcoming 2012-13 season. Wood served the previous year as a volunteer assistant coach at Louisville where she helped the Cardinals capture the Big East championship and advance to the regional finals of the 2012 NCAA tournament. Louisville posted a 55-5 record last spring while picking up nine All-Big East selections.

The Ohio Valley Conference Now in its 65th year, the Ohio Valley Conference continues to build on the success that has made it the nation’s eighth-oldest NCAA Division I conference. In May 2011 the Conference expanded for the second time in four years, adding Belmont University which begins competition in the 2012-13 academic year. The addition of Belmont gives the OVC 12 members, the most the league has had at one time in its illustrious history. The move added a second team in the city of Nashville and was the first addition to the league since Southern Illinois University Edwardsville joined in 2008. The 2009-10 school year saw a change in leadership as Beth DeBauche was named the seventh full-time Commissioner in league history on July 28, 2009. She is currently one of just five females to be the head of a Division I conference, and one of just eight to lead a Division I conference all-time. The OVC’s proud history dates back to 1948, but seeds for the new league were actually planted in 1941. It was then that Roy Stewart, the athletics director at Murray State, Charles “Turkey” Hughes, the athletics director at Eastern Kentucky, and Kelly Thompson, the public relations director at Western Kentucky, first broached the idea of forming a new conference. Discussions were put on hold by World War II, but reemerged Feb. 27-28, 1948 at the Kentucky Hotel in Louisville as the three original institutions combined with Morehead State, Louisville and Evansville to form the OVC. In the late 1970s, women’s athletics began somewhat of a rebirth on the national scene as the NCAA began sponsoring and marketing women’s sports. Recognizing the need to provide increased opportunities for female athletes, the OVC established women’s championships in the sports of basketball, tennis and track in 1977, with cross country and volleyball added over the next four years. Those sports were initially governed by the Association of Intercollegiate Athletics for Women (AIAW), but the overall strength of women’s programs in the league was demonstrated by the automatic bids the OVC instantly received when the NCAA became the governing body in 1982. In 2009 it was OVC softball that accomplished several firsts as UT Martin (tournament champion) and Jacksonville State (atlarge) were each selected for the NCAA Championship. Jacksonville State would take it a step farther by winning the Knoxville Regional (beating No. 13 national seed Tennessee along the way) to become the first OVC softball program to advance to a Super Regional. Jax State would fall to No. 4 Alabama in that Super Regional but finished the season 43-16 (19-2 OVC) and ranked 21st

nationally in the ESPN.com/USA Softball poll and 24th nationally in the USA Today/NFCA poll. The playing field is not the only place where OVC athletes are working hard. The league also recognizes excellence in the classroom. Six Scholar-Athlete Awards are presented yearly to male and female athletes, while others are commended for their academic success by being Medal of Honor recipients or earning a spot on the Commissioner’s Honor Roll. The Ohio Valley Conference sponsors the following sports: baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, tennis and track for men, and basketball, cross country, golf, soccer, softball, tennis, track and volleyball for women. In addition, the OVC also sponsors the combined men’s and women’s sport of rifle. Current league representatives include charter members Eastern Kentucky University, Morehead State University and Murray State University, along with Austin Peay State University, Belmont University, Eastern Illinois University, Jacksonville State University, Southeast Missouri State University, Southern Illinois University Edwardsville, Tennessee State University, Tennessee Technological University and the University of Tennessee at Martin.

EKU Athletics Hall of Fame On Dec. 14, 2005, Eastern Kentucky University announced the creation of an Athletics Hall of Fame. The Hall of Fame’s mission is to commemorate and honor student-athletes, other individuals and teams whose accomplishments have contributed to the esteemed tradition of Colonel Athletics and whose character has reflected positively on the University. The inaugural class of the EKU Athletics Hall of Fame, featuring 38 distinguished individuals, was inducted during an evening ceremony on Nov. 3, 2006, in the Keen Johnson Ballroom. Almost 300 people attended the induction ceremony. The honorees were also recognized prior to EKU’s home football game against Murray State the following day. The inaugural class was comprised of The Founders, a group of 25 who were previously honored at the 1974 Centennial Athletics Awards Banquet, and 13 members who were chosen by a selection committee. A former Colonel softball player has been included in three of the first seven Hall of Fame inductions. In 2008, Jonelle CsoraClark became the first EKU softball player to be inducted into the Athletics Hall of Fame. In 2009, Kim Sarrazin-Blouin joined and in 2010 Jamie Parker Welt was inducted into the Hall of Fame. The Department of Athletics accepts nominations for the Hall of Fame on a rolling basis. Nominations must be received by March 1 to be considered for that year’s class. Please visit www.EKUSports.com for more details or a nomination form.

Jamie Parker Welt (inducted 2010) Jamie Parker was a pitcher, designated hitter and infielder for three seasons for coach Jane Worthington’s EKU softball team. She was a three-time All-Ohio Valley Conference choice for the Colonels in 1994, 1995 and 1996 and still holds single season records for most hits (84) and most at bats (205). She also holds career records at Eastern for best batting average (.392) and on-base percentage (.450). As a sophomore in 1994, Parker led the team in batting with her .363 average which included four home runs and 27 RBIs. She also pitched in 37 games that season, recording 12 wins with an ERA of 2.50. In 1995, as a junior, she again led the team in batting with her .410 average, four homers and 40 RBIs. As a senior in 1996, Parker was Eastern’s top slugger, hitting .399 with three home runs and 14 RBIs. She also appeared in 27 games in ’96 for the Colonels as a pitcher, collecting 10 victories, recording a miniscule 1.67 ERA.

Kim Sarrazin-Blouin (inducted 2009) Kim Sarrazin played four years for coach Jane Worthington and was a three-time AllOhio Valley Conference choice, while making honorable mention all-conference recognition her freshman season. While compiling a .353 career batting average during her four seasons at EKU, Sarrazin finished among the league leaders in the OVC in six different categories her senior season, including batting average (.298) and runs batted in (29). She was also honored in 2000 as the OVC Player of the Year. Sarrazin’s name is all over the EKU record book, holding Eastern career marks for hits (235), doubles (46) and consecutive games with a hit (21), and EKU single-season records for most base stealers caught (24), batting average (.420) and triples (six). She was also a two-time OVC all-tournament team selection and won the OVC Academic Medal of Honor in 1996-97 as a freshman. She continued her softball career after college by starting for both the Canadian National Team that placed ninth at the 2002 World Championships and for the 2004 Canadian Olympic Team that finished fifth at the Olympic Games in Athens, Greece. She is married to Patrick Blouin and they have one son, William.

Jonelle Csora-Clark (inducted 2008) The most decorated pitcher in EKU softball history, Jonelle Csora-Clark was a three-time all-conference selection and holds several program records. Csora earned Ohio Valley Conference Pitcher of the Year honors following her junior and senior seasons. As a junior, she also earned OVC Tournament MVP recognition while leading the Colonels to the league championship and a berth in the NCAA Tournament. The Massillon, Ohio native earned all-conference and all-tournament honors in 2001, 2002, and 2003 and all-region second team honors in 2002. She tossed two seven-inning no-hitters and a six-inning no-hitter during her senior season. Csora holds EKU’s career pitching records for games played (144), games started (105), complete games (75), wins (72), consecutive wins (9), innings pitched (740.2), earned run average (1.74), shutouts (30), strikeouts (754), and opponent batting average (.194).
