2007–08 IPFW Basketball
A
fter all the hype and excitement, it has finally arrived. IPFW begins its first season of play as a member of an NCAA conference affiliate. No more Independent status, no more struggles to find teams to play in January and February, and no more need to keep reminding players that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. These facts are definitely not lost on IPFW’s Head Men’s Basketball Coach Dane Fife, who is in his third season at the helm. The past two years, Fife has led IPFW in its first two double-digit win seasons since the program became Division I-eligible back in 2001–02. “Begin in the Summit League is a tremendous opportunity for our players,” Fife said. “Now we have a goal, something to play for. Now were playing for a bid to either the National Invitational Tournament (NIT), or if we win the conference, an automatic bid into the NCAA Tournament.” However, Fife knows that just because IPFW is now a member of the Summit League, it doesn’t mean that tournament appearances will just be handed to the Mastodons. “The Summit League is definitely on the rise,” he said. “In the near future, I can see the Summit League begin considered as comparable to some of the other high Mid-Major programs like a Horizon League or the MAC (Mid-American Conference). I mean, when you have coaches like Scott Sutton (Oral Roberts), Ron Hunter, (IUPUI), Greg Kampe (Oakland), and a Scott Nagy (South Dakota State), how can this conference not grow?” The Summit League (formerly the Mid-Continent Conference) opponents are no strangers to IPFW. Most of the teams in the 10-team league have been on the Mastodons’ schedule in the past few years, so there should be a sense of familiarity for fans. Oral Roberts, UMKC, Southern Utah, and Centenary will be new faces for folks at Memorial Coliseum, and Fife already has a good idea who will be the teams to beat. “IUPUI had our number last year, and they have just about everyone back,” he noted. “Oakland will be loaded, and Oral Roberts is always strong. Then there are the wild-card teams like North Dakota State and even South Dakota State.” The Mastodons’ non-conference schedule should have them battle tested for conference play. The Dons begin the season at Wisconsin. The Badgers finished the 2006–07 campaign at 30–6. IPFW will also travel to Nebraska, Michigan State, Marquette, Kent State, and Indiana State. The good news for IPFW fans is that this is the deepest Mastodon team that Fife has had, featuring seven seniors. “Certainly that is a good thing,” the Dons’ boss said. “Right now, we are in a process of looking for someone to step up and take a leadership role. We graduated three team leaders last year (Justin Hawkins, Quintin Carouthers, and Tyler Best), so we are really taking a look at who will step up and lead.” Best’s departure leaves a huge void in the middle for the Mastodons. Fife wants his seniors to fill that void. “We are going to need quality minutes from Armend Ademi and Zjelko Egeric,” he said. Ademi (6–9/230/Sr./Forward/Pristina, Kosovo) is a physical presence in the middle. He has played sparingly over the past two years, but he will have an opportunity this year. “As a senior, Armend needs to step up and give us minutes. We are going to need him to defend in the post.” Egeric (6–10/240/Sr./Forward/Split, Croatia) showed flashes of brilliance last year. He has an incredible range for someone with his size, which can make defensive match-ups a nightmare, but Fife needs him to be on the floor more. “Zjelko needs to work on his stamina,” Fife noted. “We need him to be able to play hard for more minutes.” Jaraun Burrows (6–8/210/Sr./Forward/Nassau, Bahamas) assumed a starting role mid-way through last season and finished third on the team in scoring and second on the squad in rebounding.

2007–08 IPFW MEN’S BASKETBALL
2007–08 IPFW Basketball “Jaraun is our most physically talented front-court player,” Fife added. “We are going to push the tempo this year, and “Keno” can flat-out fly up the floor, so we are going to take advantage of that.” Burrows can also alter shots in the paint. He led the team in blocks last year with 26. Two new arrivals will also have an impact on the Dons front-court. David Carson (6–7/230/Jr./Forward/Gary, Ind.) will be eligible to play at the semester break. Carson transferred to IPFW from conference foe Oakland last year. Carson will be a welcome addition, giving the Mastodons some size, strength, and scoring ability in the paint. Also joining the IPFW front-line will be freshman Nick Luttrell (6–8/230/Fr./Forward/Nashville, Tenn.). Luttrell and Carson are expected to push for minutes this season. On the wing, IPFW is rock-solid with the return of DeWitt Scott for his senior season. Scott (6–6/190/Sr./Forward/Chicago, Ill.) finished last season as one of the most deadly three-point shooters in the nation. He was ranked 15th in the country in shooting accuracy in the final statistics released by the NCAA. Fife is looking for big things from Scott this year. “DeWitt is obviously a scoring threat. What we are trying to do is make him more than just a one-dimensional player. We are working with him to make some ball fakes to create some room, and at 6’6” we may have him post up. There aren’t that many people with his size that will be guarding him so we can possibly create some match-up problems by posting DeWitt.” A career 80-percent free-throw shooter, Fife wants to get Scott to the line more this year. Pat Lepper (6–5/190/Sr./G/F/Jacksonville, Fla.) will also see plenty of time on the wing. “Pat has probably worked harder than anyone in the gym this summer, and we expect him to have a good senior year,” Fife said. Fife has a stable of guards that can get up and go. That is why he is ready to make the move to a more up-tempo offense. “I know that we have wanted to get out and run the past two years, but I really believe we have the speed to do it this year,” he said. Demetrius Johnson (6–4/198/Sr./Guard/Cleveland, Ohio) draws some pretty lofty praise from IPFW’s head coach. “In the eight years that I have been associated with college basketball, Demetrius is the best passer that I have ever seen.” Johnson missed IPFW’s first 10 games last year, but finished second on the team in assists with 73. He struggled with injuries the past two years, but he appears to be 100 percent and ready for the upcoming year. That will allow Fife to move senior guard Chris Perkins (6–2/190/Maywood, Ill.) to his more natural position as a two-guard, where Fife says he can use his speed to get up and down the floor and his strength to defend the opposition’s top scoring threats. Fife has brought in a pair of talented freshman guards who will push for playing time of their own. “Ben Botts (6–0/165/Muncie, Ind.) and Zach Plackemeier (6–2/185/St. Charles, Mo.) are smart players who raise the basketball I.Q. of this team,” Fife explained. “They both come from very successful high school programs, and I really think that all of our freshman (Botts, Plackemeier, and Luttrell) are players that will be future leaders.” Also looking to get into the mix at guard is red-shirt freshman Keevan Miller (6–2/185/Clarksville, Ind.). Miller’s freshman campaign was lost due to injury, and he will have to continue to try to get healthy. Depth at all positions is a luxury that Fife has not had in his first two years at the helm, but one luxury he won’t have is sneaking up on teams or having them overlook the Dons. “With our successes over the past two years, we aren’t going to surprise anyone, anymore,” Fife quipped. “Now we will have to see how we react to taking a team’s best punch. We’ve caught some teams like Notre Dame and Michigan State a little off guard the first time around, but they were pretty well prepared for us the second time.” Fife also noted that there will be one key to IPFW’s success this year. “Consistency…we’ve got to give the same effort every night. There were times last year where we came out and gave a great effort and then didn’t see it the next game. For us to be successful, we need to be consistent.”

Dane Fife Dane Fife enters his third season at the helm of IPFW’s men’s basketball program. He has an overall record of 22–35. The Mastodons took another positive step forward in 2006–07 by winning 12 games, a new record win total for the program since becoming Division I. Fife’s squad really jelled the last half of the campaign, going 8–6 to finish out the year. Another sign that the program is continued in the right direction was the signing of former Mastodon Tyler Best to a professional basketball contract. Best, one of Fife’s first recruits, will play basketball this season in the top league in Uruguay.

In 2005–06, Fife guided the Mastodons to their best mark ever as a Division I program with 10 wins. While the Dons may have started the year a bit slowly, they made up for it with an 8–7 record since January. Included in that win total was an impressive 54–46 upset of Indiana State at the Hulman Center in Terre Haute. Fife took over the reigns of the program on March 24, 2005, after spending two years on the staff of former Indiana University Head Coach Mike Davis.
As a player, Fife was the defensive catalyst behind Indiana’s 2001–02 Big Ten co-champion and Final Four team. He broke the Hoosiers’ career steals record (180) en route to league Defensive Player of the Year honors as a senior. Fife also ranks among the Hoosiers’ all-time top 20 in assists (307) and three-pointers (99), and his .478 three-point field goal percentage in 2001–02 is sixth on IU’s singleseason list. Fife also holds Indiana’s single-season record for games started (37) and is tied for sixth in career games played (131). Fife was the Gary Steelheads’ first-round pick in the 2002 CBA Draft and started five of the 34 games in which he played. He averaged 3.4 points and one rebound per game. At 28, he is currently the youngest NCAA Division I men’s basketball head coach. Coach Fife and his wife, Blair, reside in Fort Wayne.

Before arriving at IPFW, Jasick was a member of the coaching staff at Middle Tennessee State University. During the 2004–05 season at MTSU, he helped the Blue Raiders to 19 wins and coached Mike Dean and Michael Cuffee to All-Sun Belt Conference selections. He was responsible for video coordination, player academic progress, and community service projects.

The Indians appeared in the South Atlantic Conference Championship Game for the first time in school history, led by First-Team All-SAC performer Rashaad Carter. Jasick began his career as a volunteer assistant at the University of North Alabama in the Gulf South Conference. Coach Jasick received a B.S.Ed. in Biology from Mars Hill College in 2000. He then obtained an M.S.Ed. from Lincoln Memorial University in 2002. Jasick, his wife, Melissa, and their daughter, Rohen Marie, reside in Fort Wayne.
Dan Bere Dan Bere begins his third year on the IPFW men’s basketball staff. This past spring, Bere was promoted to assistant basketball coach.

In 1992, he transferred to Manchester College in North Manchester, Ind., where he played for two seasons under Coach Steve Alford. After completing his playing career, he remained at the college another year to finish a bachelor’s degree in physical education. He also worked as a student assistant coach for the basketball program, helping guide the team to an undefeated record during the regular season and a runner-up finish at the NCAA Division III National Tournament. During his three years at the college, the basketball team compiled a 74–13 record.
Parkinson, a former Purdue University basketball letterwinner, finished his Boilermaker career in 2003–04 tied for 10th on the school's all-time assist list. Parkinson led the team in assists both his sophomore (140) and senior (119) campaigns. He also led the Big Ten in assist-to-turnover ratio three years straight.
“I’m excited to have Gerad joining our staff,” Head Coach Dane Fife said. “He’s an Indiana guy who has built a reputation at John Logan as a quality recruiter within the Midwest and as a great mentor to his players. He will do well here at IPFW.” Good and his wife, the former Robin Kilgore (a native of Fort Wayne), have one son, Miles.

Summit League History Now in its 26th year as an NCAA Division I athletics conference, The Summit League is in its first year under that name. In May 2007, the Presidents Council embraced the Summit Plan, a strategic plan that places a renewed emphasis on improving the academic and athletic performances of all its student-athletes. Included in the plan was the creation of a new image of the conference and the unveiling of a new name. The Summit League is the third name the conference has maintained as an NCAA sanctioned league. The Summit League’s current member schools are Centenary College of Louisiana, IPFW (Indiana University–Purdue University Fort Wayne), IUPUI (Indiana University–Purdue University Indianapolis), UMKC (University of Missouri–Kansas City), North Dakota State University, Oakland University, Oral Roberts University, South Dakota State University, Southern Utah University and Western Illinois University. The member schools pride themselves on providing quality athletic, academic, and social experiences for their student-athletes. The Summit League sponsors 19 championship sports, which include: baseball, men’s and women’s basketball, men’s and women’s cross country, men’s and women’s golf, men’s and women’s soccer, softball, men’s and women’s swimming and diving, men’s and women’s indoor track and field, men’s and women’s outdoor track and field, men’s and women’s tennis, and volleyball. A review of The Summit League’s highlights during the past 25 years: 1982–83 The Association of Mid-Continent Universities is founded with “Frosty” Ferzacca as its first commissioner. • The initial AMCU line-up includes Cleveland State, Eastern Illinois, Illinois–Chicago, Northern Iowa, SW Missouri State, Valparaiso, Western Illinois, and Wisconsin–Green Bay. 1983–84 UW–Green Bay and Eastern Illinois each play in the NCAA Men’s Soccer Tournament, making them the league’s first NCAA tourney teams in any sport. 1985–86 Cleveland State earns the AMCU’s first national recognition in the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament, upsetting No. 3 seed Indiana on their way to a Sweet 16 appearance. • Southwest Missouri State begins a string of five consecutive postseason appearances by reaching the quarterfinals of the NIT. 1987–88 Ferzacca steps down as commissioner and is replaced by Jerry Ippoliti. • Eastern Illinois’ Jim Maton is the league’s first NCAA national champion, winning the 800-meter run at the NCAA Indoor Track Championship. • The AMCU sends two teams to men’s basketball post-season play for the third straight season. 1989–90 The AMCU sends a conference-record three teams to post-season play in men’s basketball, including Northern Iowa, which upsets third-seeded Missouri in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. • The AMCU changes its name to the Mid-Continent Conference. 1991–92 The league announces that it will begin sponsoring women’s athletics strengthened by the membership of seven former North Star Conference members—the following year with the debut of six championship sports. • Eastern Illinois’ Dan Steele wins the 400-meter intermediate hurdles at the NCAA Outdoor Track & Field Championship. 1992–93 UW–Milwaukee wins the first Mid-Con-sponsored women’s championship when it takes home the cross country crown. • Northern Illinois makes the first NCAA appearance by a Mid-Con women’s team in the NCAA Women’s Basketball Tournament. • Wright State’s Brian Anderson is the third overall pick in the Major League Baseball draft after winning his second consecutive Mid-Con Pitcher-of-the-Year award.

Tommy Bell
INDIANA UNIVERSITY PURDUE UNIVERSITY F O R T W AY N E
director of athletics James T. (Tommy) Bell is IPFW’s new director of athletics beginning with the 2007–08 academic year and comes from Southern Illinois University Carbondale. He has been the constituent development officer for the Saluki’s Department of Athletics since October 2001. As the director of athletic development, Bell oversaw a staff of two that managed all fundraising efforts within the department. He established the Saluki Athletic Scholarship Fund in fall 2002 and increased that fund by more than 450 percent. TM
“I am honored and proud to be chosen to lead the athletic department at IPFW. This is truly an exciting time in the university’s athletic history as we enter the Summit League,” Bell said. “I am pleased that Tommy is joining the Mastodon family here at IPFW,” Chancellor Wartell noted. “He brings to us a wealth of knowledge and experience in NCAA Division I collegiate athletic administration and fundraising. Tommy’s high energy level, his people skills, and his natural warmth will make him an instant success in both the Mastodon and Fort Wayne communities. I’m sure that with his abilities and talents, the Mastodons will be reaching new goals in a very short time.” Most recently, Bell led the SIU athletic department’s comprehensive capital campaign efforts for The Opportunity Through Excellence: The Campaign For Southern Illinois University. This project facilitated the first phases of the proposed “Saluki Way” master facility plan. Bell received an undergraduate degree from Virginia Tech in 1979, and an M.S.Ed. from Radford University in 1987. His previous development experience was at Northern Illinois University as assistant athletic director for development from 1990–99. He also served as head athletic trainer at Radford University in Virginia from 1980–84, and then serving full time as athletic trainer for the Philadelphia Phillies AAA affiliate, the Portland Beavers from 1984–87. Tommy and his wife, Laurie, currently live in Makanda, Ill., and have two children: Joey (22) and Courtney (20). Both are attending SIU.
Michael A. Wartell chancellor Academician and scientist Michael A. Wartell came to IPFW as vice chancellor for academic affairs and chemistry professor in 1993. On July 1, 1994, Wartell was installed as chancellor. His prior experience includes positions at Sandia Laboratories in Albuquerque, N.M.; Humboldt State University in Arcata, Calif.; and James Madison University in Harrisonburg, Va. He received a B.S. in chemistry from the University of New Mexico and both an M.S. and Ph.D. from Yale University in physical chemistry. Wartell currently serves on the U.S. Army Science Board and has worked on such projects as chemical warfare, manpower and logistics, and decontamination. He also serves on the Defense Science Board and chairs the Defense Intelligence Agency Science and Technology Advisory Board. Wartell stays involved in the Fort Wayne community by serving on the Board of Directors of the Greater Fort Wayne Chamber of Commerce, Corporate Council, Leadership Fort Wayne, and Fort Wayne Philharmonic.

IPFW at a glance one university. two great names.
INDIANA UNIVERSITY PURDUE UNIVERSITY F O R T W AY N E
The university offers more than 190 academic programs for undergraduate and graduate students who are taught by distinguished professors. It’s not unusual to turn on a television documentary and see a member of IPFW’s faculty as the “resident expert” on topics ranging from dinosaurs to Middle East politics. TM
As northeast Indiana’s premier public university, IPFW is committed to enhancing access to personalized, high-quality learning.
IPFW continues to grow, both in number of students and in facilities. The addition of more than a dozen soccer fields alongside the St. Joseph River has greatly increased athletic opportunities for students as well as members of the community. IPFW has new apartmentstyle student housing, offering a more traditional university experience to students. This fall, a new state-of-the-art music building was dedicated and ground was broken for a new medical education building. IPFW’s academic organization is made up of 10 major units, which include the College of Arts and Sciences; the College of Engineering, Technology, and Computer Science; the College of Health an Human Services; the College of Visual and Performing Arts; the Richard T. Doermer School of Business and Management Sciences; and the School of Education. It also includes the divisions of Continuing Studies, Labor Studies, Public and Environmental Affairs, and Organizational Leadership and Supervision. There are nearly 100 student organizations on IPFW’s campus. Groups include departmental organizations, honorary societies, religious organizations, and special-interest groups. There are also several intramural sports. IPFW is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools. 46

Fort Wayne history of the summit city Fort Wayne began as an outpost on the western frontier more than 200 years ago. It gained its nickname, the “Summit City,” by being the highest place between the Maumee and Wabash river basins.

2007–08 IPFW MEN’S BASKETBALL
Now with a population in excess of 200,000 people, it is the second largest city in Indiana. As such, it offers its citizenry a wide variety of things to do, see, and appreciate. For the sportsminded, there are three professional teams based here: the United Hockey League’s Fort Wayne Komets, the Midwest League’s Single A Baseball Fort Wayne Wizards (whose parent club is the San Diego Padres), and the United Indoor Football Association’s Fort Wayne Fusion. Fort Wayne holds several places in sports history. It is the birthplace of the National Basketball Association and the home of the Daisies, one of five teams in the first professional women’s baseball league. Fort Wayne also has the honor of holding the first night baseball game under lights. For those interested in the performing arts, the Summit City offers venues such as the Fort Wayne Philharmonic, the Fort Wayne Ballet, Civic Theatre, Artlink, the Fort Wayne Dance Collective, and Fort Wayne Youtheatre. Some little known trivia about Fort Wayne: the inventor of the television, Philo T. Farnsworth, was born here as was fashion designer Bill Blass. Fort Wayne is the home of the washing machine, baking powder, parking meters, magnetic wire, streetlights, and gas pumps. 47
