HEAD COACH PETE MEYER Now in his fourth year (201112) as Director of At h letics at Florida Southern College, Pete Meyer saw Moccasin teams enjoy another successful year in 2010-11. The women’s golf team finished third at the NCA A Div ision I I Championship. The swimming team claimed four individual event NCAA championships (Mary O’Sullivan – 200-yard freestyle and 200-yard backstroke, Jeb Halfacre – 200yard backstroke and men’s 400-yard medley relay team). Twelve of FSC’s programs participated in NCA A postseason competition. FSC won Sunshine State Conference titles in men’s cross country (14th straight) and women’s basketball (regular season and postseason tournament), won the SSC women’s Mayor’s Cup Award and tied for second in the men’s Mayors’ Cup. That success combined to give the Moccasins a 19th-place finish, tops among SSC schools, in the 2010-11 Learfield Sports/NACDA Cup standings and their 10th top 25 finish in the program’s history. Meyer also returned to the coaching ranks in 2010-11, taking command of the baseball program 12 games into the season and guiding the Moccasins to a final season record of 32-15. In 2009-10, FSC won its 12th NCAA men’s golf title and 27th national title overall and produced its first national champion in swimming (Jeb Halfacre – 200-yard backstroke). Eleven programs were represented in NCAA postseason competition, with men’s golf, basketball and cross country teams capturing SSC titles. In Meyer’s first year as AD (2008-09), Moccasin teams produced three SSC championships (men’s cross country, men’s basketball, softball) and a fifth-place national finish in women’s golf. Eleven FSC teams went to NCAA postseason competition. Named to the AD position Feb. 21, 2008, he officially assumed his duties July 1, 2008, when Lois Webb retired. In the fall of 2008, Meyer was given the additional title of Dean of Wellness, putting the operation of the Hollis Wellness Center, as well as the water ski program and campus intramurals under his direction. Meyer, who has been at Florida Southern since 1998, also served as assistant athletics director for Webb from February of 2006 until his AD appointment. In his previous stint as baseball coach (2002-08), Meyer spent six full seasons as head coach, guiding the Moccasins to their ninth NCAA Division II national title in 2005 with a 51-11 record. His head coaching record at Florida Southern is 282-121-1, while his overall record as a head coach is 321-151-1. Thirty-eight Moccasin baseball players have been drafted or signed professional contracts during Meyer’s tenure as head coach. Before officially assuming the reigns of head baseball coach in June of 2002, Meyer had served for over three years as Florida Southern’s top assistant coach under Chuck Anderson. He also was the program’s recruiting coordinator. 2
Prior to joining the FSC coaching staff, Meyer spent five seasons at Valdosta State, working under legendary head coach Tommy Thomas. Before his stint at Valdosta State, Meyer was head baseball coach at Oglethorpe University in Atlanta, where he coordinated the start of the school’s Division III program in 1991. His Oglethorpe teams won Eastern Division titles in the SCAC in each of his two seasons (199293). He served as a graduate assistant at Valdosta State from 1988-90, while earning his M. Ed. in physical education. A four-year baseball letterman at the College of Wooster in Ohio, Meyer graduated in 1987 with a B.A. in speech communication. Meyer is married to the former Julie Newnum. The couple has three children - 23-year old Ross, 21-year-old Mitchell, who is enrolled at FSC, and 20-year old Megan, who attends Trinity University in Texas.

ASSOCIATE HEAD COACH LANCE NIEKRO After his first season on the Moccasin baseball coaching staff in 2011, former FSC All-American and Major Leaguer Lance Niekro now has the title of associate head coach for the 2012 season. A third-team All-American at FSC, Niekro played four seasons with the San Francisco Giants (2003-2006). “When I found out the job was open, it seemed like a natural fit for me, being from Lakeland and having played at Florida Southern,” Niekro said. “I want to stay involved in baseball and I’m looking forward to helping the Moccasins continue to be one of the top college baseball programs in the country.” A graduate of Lakeland’s George Jenkins High School, Niekro was drafted as a senior by Philadelphia in the 13th round, but chose to at-
tend Florida Southern instead of signing. He was redshirted in 1998 and played in 1999 and 2000 for the Moccasins. In 1999 he hit .368 with eight home runs, 44 RBI and 21 stolen bases. In 2000 he hit a team-best .357 with seven home runs, a team-high 63 RBI and 24 stolen bases. He was a first-team All-Sunshine State Conference selection, a first-team All-South Region selection and a third-team All-America pick. In the 2000 Major League Draft, he was the 61st player selected overall, going in the second round to the Giants. He made his big league debut with the Giants in September of 2003. His best season was 2005, when he hit .252 with 12 home runs and 46 RBI in 113 games. Overall he spent four seasons in the Major Leagues, hitting .246 with 17 home runs and 79 RBI. He also had brief minor league stints with the Astros’ and Braves’ organizations before leaving pro baseball. Niekro is the son of the late Joe Niekro, who won 221 games in 22 seasons in the Major Leagues and who also was an assistant coach at Florida Southern in 2000. His uncle is Hall of Famer pitcher Phil NIekro, who won 318 games in his career. He and his wife, Emilee, have a one-year old son, Will.
Pete Meyer led the Moccasins to the 2005 NCAA National Championship capturing the program’s ninth NCAA Trophy.
Lance Niekro is in his first season as associate head coach after joining the Mocs last season as an assistant coach.

ASSISTANT COACH BRIAN REVES Former Moccasin Brian Reves joins the baseball staff for the 2011-12 school year. Reves played four seasons for FSC under Pete Meyer (2002-05). A Polk County native from Fort Meade, Reves compiled a 23-13 career record for the Moccasins and was a member of the 2005 national championship team. He earned a win at the 2005 championship tournament, making the start and going five innings in a 6-5 elimination game win over West Virginia State and worked four innings in relief in the title game three days later. His 2005 record was 6-2 with a 4.90 earned run average and 59 strikeouts in 60.2 innings. His best season was 2003, when he was 7-3 with a 3.07 ERA and 77 strikeouts in 96.2 innings. Used as a starter and a reliever, his 80 career appearances rank third in FSC history. He had a career ERA of 3.76 and 270 strikeouts in 280 innings. Reves was a two-sport standout at Fort Meade High School, earning all-Polk County honors in both baseball and football. He was the starting quarterback in football and helped lead Fort Meade to two appearances in the Class A state championship game, earning all-state recognition. He was the salutatorian of his graduating class with a 4.250 grade point average. He received his bachelor’s degree in recreational turf/grass management from FSC. He has been the head baseball coach at Bartow High School the past four seasons, producing a 64-40 record.

ASSISTANT COACH RICK MARLIN Rick Marlin returns to the Moccasin baseball staff after serving as a volunteer assistant for the 2011 season. Marlin was an assistant coach for the Orlando Mavericks in the Florida Collegiate Summer League in the summer of 2010. A native of Orlando and a graduate of Bishop Moore Catholic High School, Marlin enjoyed a four-year collegiate career at Penn State (200609). A three-year starter in the outfield, Marlin played in 175 games for the Nittany Lions, starting 162. He had a career batting average of .295 with seven home runs and 84 RBI.
ASSISTANT COACH PATRICK SZCZERBA After a four-year playing career for the Moccasins, Patrick Szczerba will continue his association with FSC as a member of the baseball coaching staff for the 2012 season.

Former Moc, Matt Joyce, named to American League 2011 All-Star Team Matt Joyce, a member of the Moccasins’ 2005 NCAA Div. II National Championship Team, was named to the American League All-Star Team in 2011 as a member of the Tampa Bay Rays. Joyce earned his spot on the AL team thanks in part to a torrid month of May in which he hit .414 at the plate. The Rays’ rightfielder singled in his second at bat in the midseason classic. Joyce is Florida Southern’s second Major League All-Star, joining relief pitcher John Hudek (1987-1988), who made the National League All-Star team as a rookie in 1994 as a member of the Houston Astros. Joyce played at Florida Southern from 2003-05, hitting .306 with 40 doubles, seven triples, 22 home runs and 121 RBI.

.400 CLUB In 2006, Nick Diyorio hit .408 to become just the third FSC player since 1957 to hit .400 or better in back-to-back seasons after having posted a .403 mark in 2005. Diyori joins Joe Sickles (1982 and 1983) and Mike Schoeller (1978 and 1979) in this exclusive club. James Vida’s .463 average in 1994 is the FSC record, which was also good for sixth in the nation that year, the highest finish ever for a Moccasin hitter. In 2006, Diyorio set an NCAA record by hitting in 49 consecutive games.

Clare “Doc” Henley Ball Park (aka Henley Field)
The Mocs play their home games at historic Henley Field, a 1,000-seat lighted ball park located a few blocks north of downtown Lakeland. Its cozy atmosphere makes it fun to attend a game, but it is tough on opponents. Combined with nearby Joker Marchant Stadium (which served as the Mocs’ home park for several games in past seasons) FSC has a winning percentage at home of better than 80%. Henley Field’s dimensions are 420 to straight-away center, 325 down the left field line, 330 down the right field line, 365 to left center and 385 to right center.
THE HISTORY OF HENLEY FIELD Named for Clare “Doc” Henley, Henley Field, the home of the Moccasins, has been a Lakeland fixture since the 1920’s when it was known as Adair Field. In 1922, Clare Henley, president of the Lakeland Baseball Club, joined efforts with T.J. Appleyard and approached the Cleveland Indians about moving their Spring Training to Lakeland. In 1923 the Indians set up shop in Lakeland and played here for two seasons. Henley, owner of a series of Lakeland area pharmacies, would sell tickets at his stores and also charge for parking next to the park. On March 17, 1925 the dedication of “Athletic Park” took place with Major League Baseball Commissioner Judge Kenesaw Mountain Landis as guest speaker. With attendance dwindling to just an average of just 110 fans in 1927, the Indians packed their bags and left Lakeland without a professional team Athletic Field originally was an open field, but in 1927 a wall 52
encircled the 510’ by 440’ field. In 1933 Henley joined with the Lakeland Chamber of Commerce and approached the Detroit Tigers about setting up camp at Athletic Field. In 1934, the Tigers began what today is the longest relationship between a major league team and a host spring training city. The Lakeland Chamber decided to honor Henley by naming the park in his honor and on March 29, 1952, Athletic Field was renamed Clare “Doc” Henley Ball Park. A writer for the Detroit News said of Henley, “He is the man who has done the most for the national sport of baseball in Lakeland.” Futhermore, the writer called Henley, the “Virtual Father of Lakeland Baseball.” During its spring training days Henley Field saw the likes of Babe Ruth and Ty Cobb, as well as Joe DiMaggio and Ted Williams, play here, in addition to Hall of Famer Al Kaline, whose grandson, Colin, is a current member of the Moccasin baseball team. In 1987, Henley Field was the fictional home to the Tampico Stogies semi-professional team in the HBO movie “Long Gone” starring William Peterson and Virginia Madsen. Former FSC athletics director Hal Smeltzly served as baseball advisor during the filming. Entrance to Henley Field

Home of the Nine-Time National Champions WHO WAS CLARE HENLEY? Clare Henley was born in 1888 in Lakeland. After graduating from Lakeland High School, Henley attended Stetson University and later studied at Atlanta College of Pharmacy. While in Atlanta, Henley played baseball at Georgia Tech although not a student at the school. Henley later took over his father’s pharmacy business and eventually sold spring training tickets in his five stores. His love for baseball inspired him to convince the City of Lakeland to purchase 70 acres of land from Dr. Pike Adair.

FLORIDA SOUTHERN COLLEGE
Home of the 2012 Princeton Review’s top-ranked “Most Beautiful Campus” in the nation, Florida Southern College has the world’s largest single-site collection of architecture by renowned architect Frank Lloyd Wright, including the recently refurbished Water Dome. Currently under construction is a Frank Lloyd Wright Usonian House that will be a campus visitor’s center. Newly opened campus facilities include the Rinker Technology Center, the McKay Archives Center, the Blanton Nursing Building, the Christoverson Humanities Building and the popular TuTu’s Cyber Café in the Roux Library. Situated on the north shore of Lakeland ’s scenic Lake Hollingsworth, the 100-acre campus also features a number of other outstanding facilities – the newly renovated Jenkins Field House (for basketball and volleyball); Barnett Field (for softball and soccer); Branscomb Auditorium (for major events and concerts); 12 residence halls (all wired to the Internet); the Davis Performing Arts Center; the Roux Library; and the Hollis Wellness Center, which includes a state-of-the-art fitness center, recreational facilities and an NCAA competition-size outdoor swimming pool. Founded by the United Methodist Church in 1883, Florida Southern is the oldest private college in the state of Florida. With an enrollment of over 2,000 students, Florida Southern offers more than 40 undergraduate majors and distinctive graduate programs in business administration, education and nursing. With Lakeland’s population at over 97,000, Florida Southern is in the heart of dynamic and growing central Florida and is only about an hour’s drive from the major metropolitan areas of Tampa and Orlando, as well as some of Florida’s most popular beaches. Such attractions as Walt Disney World, Universal Studios, Epcot Center, Sea World, Busch Gardens and the new Legoland Theme Park are only a short drive from campus. Major League Baseball’s Detroit Tigers have made Lakeland their annual spring training home for 75 years and several other big league teams train in the nearby area. Some of Florida Southern’s prominent alumni include professional golfers Lee Janzen and Rocco Mediate; Major League Baseball’s Matt Joyce (Tampa Bay Rays); auto racing executive Jim France, chairman of International Speedway Corp. (which owns Daytona International Speedway) and vice chairman of NASCAR; Publix Super Markets, Inc. Vice Chairman Barney Barnett and Florida Supreme Court Justice Fred Lewis.

Florida Southern College Frank Lloyd Wright’s “Child of the Sun”
The Danforth Chapel is one of two chapels on campus designed by Frank Lloyd Wright.
The Thad Buckner Building is home to the Frank Lloyd Wright “Child of the Sun” Visitor Center.
The Esplanades, totaling 1.5 miles, line the west campus of Florida Southern College. The “covered walkways” connect the structures, actually weaving in and out, providing the pattern for the complex.
Florida Southern is home to the world’s only Frank Lloyd Wright-designed planetarium.
Frank Lloyd Wright often visited Florida Southern College during his 20-year relationship with the college.
Founded by the United Methodist Church, Florida Southern College is one of the oldest private colleges in the state, tracing its beginnings to a small seminary in Orlando in 1883. The tie to its founding church has remained constant and is today, a proud part of the College’s heritage and a bright beacon for the future. Florida Southern moved to Lakeland in the heart of Florida’s citrus belt in 1922 and began the construction of a campus that would eventually become a national landmark. The beautiful 100-acre campus, on the north shore of Lake Hollingsworth, includes the world’s largest collection of buildings by master architect Frank Lloyd Wright. Florida Southern’s West Campus, now known throughout the world, actually had its inception in the mind of Dr. Ludd M. Spivey, president of the college from 1925-1957.
Annie Pfeiffer Chapel, completed in 1941, was the first of Wright’s designs at Florida Southern College.
In 1935 he conceived the idea of an ultra-modern campus, designed by the world’s leading architect. Ground was broken two years later for the first building in the Wright collection, the Annie Pfeiffer Chapel. What Frank Lloyd Wright created on the campus is amazing. His original work is still as modern and exciting as the newest buildings still on many architect’s drawing boards. It is, perhaps, symbolic that the greatest concentration of his genius should be located at a small, private institution of higher learning. Perhaps he describes it best, “...out of the ground and into the light, a child of the sun...the college of tomorrow.”

DR. ANNE B. KERR College President Since her appointment
as Florida Southern College’s seventeenth president in 2004, D r. A n ne K e r r ’s v i s ion a r y leadership has enhanced the student experience on campus and increased the college’s national prominence. Under her direction, the institution has renewed its commitment to educate the whole person—academically, socially, spiritually and physically—in order to insure that students leave prepared to make a positive and consequential impact on our world. Early in her tenure, Dr. Kerr oversaw implementation of a comprehensive strategic plan for the College that was designed to enrich all facets of our student-centered culture. Opportunities for active learning and leadership were increased; innovative, engaged, and personalized instruction were prioritized; and the College’s scholar-athlete program became a national model for NCAA Division II athletic programs. Recent college improvements include ongoing restoration projects on the Frank Lloyd Wright campus and the construction of a Frank Lloyd Wright Usonian House for use as a Tourism and Education Center, which will be the first Wright design built
since 1966. Other new construction includes the two-building Barnett Residential Complex and the Christoverson Humanities Building (all three designed by world-renowned architect Robert A.M. Stern), the McKay Archives Center, the Blanton Nursing Building, the Rinker Technology Center, and TûTû’s Café (located in the Roux Library). Further improvements include the complete renovation of the student dining facility (Wynee’s Bistro), residence hall and campus-wide technology upgrades, and a campus beautification project featuring dozens of interconnected plazas and gardens. Dr. Kerr graduated from Mercer University and received her M.S. and Ph.D. from Florida State University. Prior to assuming the Presidency at Florida Southern, she served as Vice President for Advancement both at the University of Richmond and at Rollins College. She has held numerous volunteer leadership roles, and currently serves on the boards of SunTrust Bank, All Saints’ Academy, EarthLinked Technologies, Inc., the Polk Museum of Art, and the Florida Chamber of Commerce. She recently completed a two-year term as president of the Sunshine State Athletic Conference. Dr. Kerr and her husband, Roy, have a seventeen-year-old son, Ed, who plays baseball for All Saints’ Academy. Dr. Roy Kerr is a retired professor of Spanish and a baseball historian, whose recent publications include The Loving of the Game: a Baseball Memoir (2007); Sliding Billy Hamilton: the Life and Times of Baseball’s First Great Leadoff Man (2010), and Roger Connor: Home Run King of Nineteenth-Century Baseball (2011).
The Christoverson Humanities Building, which opened Fall 2011, is the latest of the numerous additions to the campus under the leadership of President Kerr. A Tourism & Education Center, based on a Frank Lloyd Wright design, is currently under construction.
