Coaches Head Coach Jared Baszler
Jared Baszler (pronounced BAYZ-ler) enters his tenth season as head coach of both the men’s and women’s golf teams at South Dakota State University. After coaching on a part-time basis for five years, Baszler was promoted to a full-time position on Aug. 5, 2008. Baszler has taken the Jackrabbit golf program to new heights in recent years with the addition of two home tournaments to the schedule and a brand new, $67,000 indoor golfing room. The Jackrabbit Invitational started in 2010 at the Primm Valley Golf Club in Primm, Nev. Comprised of two courses, the venue has been perfect for the Jacks and other schools in the northern part of the U.S. looking for an early spring tournament. A new addition to the schedule
2
in 2012 was the Jackrabbit Fall Invitational, which became the first Division I golf event ever held in South Dakota. The field consisted of state and regional schools who don’t get many opportunities to golf in the places many of them grew up. During winter break of the 2012-13 school year, the putting and chipping area of the new indoor golf room was completed. Installed by SynLawn, the green is 48 by 20 feet and takes up most of the new golfing room. The other phase of the indoor facility came much sooner than expected as the Foresight Sports golf simulator was installed in early March 2013. The system features a launch monitor, a portable black box which can be used indoors or out on the course. The monitor tracks club head speed, carry distance, angle of attack, ball spin, etc. It keeps data for every swing for every golfer and used for later analysis -- pretty much like watching game film for golfers. The updates to the indoor facilities usher in a new era for SDSU golf. Instead of being shut down during the cold winter months, golfers now have access to a variety of courses and a driving range even while the snow piles
up outside. Baszler earned Midwest Conference medalist honors two times (1999 and 2002) during his collegiate playing career at Grinnell College (Iowa). He also earned team most valuable player honors three times (1999, 2000 and 2002), before earning a bachelor’s degree in computer science in 2002. During his prep career at De Smet High School, Baszler qualified for the state Class B tournament five times, earning runner-up honors as a freshman. Baszler helped lead De Smet to the Class B state team title his junior year, while also competing on three state runner-up team. Baszler and his wife Ashley have one son, Jack, who was born in 2011.

Coaches Graduate Assistant Eric Hodgson
The new graduate assistant coach for the men’s and women’s golf teams is Eric Hodgson. He was a late addition to the program in the fall of 2012 after previous GA Rachel Hanigan accepted a highlysought after golf management position in Arizona. The Marietta, Ga., native brings with him four years of collegiate
golf experience and a broad range of knowledge when it comes to college golf, swing mechanics and academics. After spending his first two years at Young Harris College where he posted a 73.3 scoring average, Hodgson transferred to University of the Cumberlands (Ky.). He consistently held a top-five roster spot and helped Cumberlands with nine straight conference titles while holding down a top-five ranking in the NAIA. His work in the classroom earned him two Academic All-America honors and he was also a two-time Academic AllConference selection. Hodgson graduated from the University of the Cumberlands in 2012 with a bachelor’s degree in business administration and minor in political science.

New Indoor Facility

Freshman Miles Knutsen getting ready to try out the new Foresight Sports simulator.
Jacks get new home for winter Being an upper-Midwest school with a golf program can be tough. “We used to basically shut down for two months out of the year. Two hitting mats and a simple net gets boring,” head coach Jared Baszler said. Thanks to a new $67,000 indoor facility on the south side of Frost Arena, not anymore. “One of the first questions a recruit usually asks is how many months a year they can golf (in Brookings). From now on I’m gonna say 12 ... anything you can do outside you can do in here,” Baszler said. About two years ago, a few of the golfers’ parents approached him and got the ball rolling on fundraising for the project. He rounded up support from former Jackrabbit golfers, alumni, other parents of current golfers and just about anyone that ever had any connection to the SDSU golf program. The first phase of the Jacks’ new facility was the 900 square-foot (48 x 20 feet) putting and chipping area. After $35,000 and some good old-fashioned labor (a wall had to be knocked out), phase one was completed over winter break. SynLawn, an artificial grass company, installed the indoor putting green in less than two days.
Freshman Miles Knutsen takes his first swings on the new simulator.
One of the biggest advantages of the simulator is the ‘launch monitor’, a portable black box which can be used indoors or out on the course and keeps data on every swing of every golfer for later analysis. Like watching film for golfers, the launch monitor records data such as club head speed, carry distance, angle of attack, ball spin, etc. The launch monitor and simulator setup were purchased from Foresight Sports - a leader in the launch monitor sector of the golf industry.

About SDSU With a record enrollment of 12,816 students in the fall of 2012, South Dakota State remains the state’s largest institution of higher learning.
The
SDSU Early History
Located in Brookings, the Territorial Legislative Assembly authorized SDSU in 1881 to serve as the state’s land grant institution. Territorial Council member John O’Brien Scobey managed to secure Dakota Agricultural College for his city. Although allocations fell short of the actual cost, the school did open in the fall of 1884 because the president, George Lilley, advanced $500 — one-third of his salary — to finish three rooms in the new Central Building. “Old Central” was soon joined by South (1885) and North (1887), forming the nucleus of campus for a decade and a half. During the first year of operation, the college only held preparatory classes. College classes started in 1885 with five teachers, 17 freshman and 61 preparatory students. Growth stayed slow and erratic for many years, but by the turn of the 20th century, 242 students enrolled and by 1990, SDSU enrollment grew to more than 9,000 students.
Colleges Established
SDSU granted nearly 70,000 degrees since its charter in 1881. The structure of the college became more complex as enrollments increased. The first nine chairs of instruction established in 1884 included agriculture, science, mathematics, English, modern languages, military tactics, veterinary science, practical business, political & domestic economy and music. By 1907, the year the name of the institution changed to South Dakota State College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts, there were 22 departments on campus. Reorganization into the five divisions that formed the basis for the designation of colleges was completed under President Charles W. Pugsley in 1923. In 1964, when “State College” became South Dakota State University, the school included six colleges. Now, students can earn degrees offered through eight colleges. Students can choose from more than 200 majors, minors and options at SDSU with more than 2,500 different course offerings. Master’s degrees can be earned in more than 30 areas, with doctorates available in eight fields. SDSU also offers degree programs through the South Dakota Public Universities and Research Center in Sioux Falls. The Office of Academic Affairs and Outreach coordinates evening, RDTN, Internet and off-campus courses. The North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools accredits SDSU, while numerous departments on campus hold accreditation from various other agencies. SDSU celebrated its 125th anniversary in 2006, a yearlong event that culminated with the 2006 Hobo Day football game. Over those 125 years, SDSU grew from a campus of 80 acres in 1881 to a 271-acre campus with facilities worth more than $220 million.

AGGIE SCHOOL CLOCK TOWER—The clock tower sits in front of the Tompkins Alumni Center on the west side of campus. The alumni center is host to many university and alumni functions throughout the year. The Coughlin Campanile (left) is considered South Dakota State University’s most recognizable landmark. The campanile’s cornerstone was laid on June 10, 1929, by Charles Coughlin and its chimes have called students to classes with its famous Westminster peals ever since.
university owns or leases another 15,000 acres for research throughout the state. The Printing and Journalism Building — now named Anson and Ada May Yeager Hall — underwent a $2.1 million expansion and renovation project. Other recent campus construction projects include a $7 million expansion to Crothers Engineering Hall, the renovation of Solberg Hall and the building of a $9 million performing arts center, which opened in the fall of 2002. A new residence hall (Caldwell Hall) and the University Student Union expansion and renovation opened in the fall of 2005, and the Enterprise Institute, located on the southwest corner of campus opened in 2004. In 2005, SDSU spent more than $3 million to install new state of the art scoreboards in Frost Arena and at Coughlin Alumni Stadium.
Agricultural Research
The university reaches all corners of the state through the Cooperative Extension Service and the Agricultural Experiment Station, offering service to improve the quality of rural life. SDSU also sponsors the Center for Innovation, Technology and Entrepreneurship; Engineering Experiment Station, Office of Remote Sensing; Water Resources Institute; Engineering and Environmental Research Center; Animal Disease Research and Diagnostic Laboratory; and Northern Grain Insect Research Laboratory. These units help strengthen the university’s growing commitment to research and support of state and local economic development efforts. The Northern Great Plains Biostress Laboratory, dedicated in 1993, houses scientists who focus on research aimed at developing new technologies to protect crops and livestock. SDSU is also one of just five universities to serve as a

regional center for the Sun Grant Initiative, which is a concept to solve America’s energy needs and revitalize rural communities with Land-Grant university research, education and Extension programs on renewable energy and bio-based non-food industries. The Harding Distinguished Lecture Series, the F.O. Butler Lectures, the Lusk Lecture and the Amdahl, Schultz-Werth and Griffiths endowments all supplement classroom instruction. Students can also choose from more than 100 clubs and organizations on campus.
The Coughlin Campanile
Museums & Attractions
The educational opportunities do not end in the classroom or laboratory, as South Dakota State University houses several facilities, including museums and gardens. Dedicated in 1970, and expanded in 2000, the South Dakota Federation of Women’s Club first envisioned the South Dakota Art Museum in 1949. The museum’s collections include early Sioux Indian tribal art, the famed Harvey Dunn paintings of pioneer life and the exclusive Vera Way Marghab linens. The State Agricultural Heritage Museum transformed the former Stock Judging Pavilion into a home for exhibits that record and preserve the agrarian heritage of South Dakota. The 70-acre McCrory Gardens and South Dakota Arboretum, located south and east of campus, provide a beautiful setting for area residents and tourists to enjoy a stroll through the radiant colors and fragrances of one of the top 10 small ornamental gardens in the nation. It is also recognized as an All-American Display Garden, one of only 13 in the nation. In 1993 McCrory Gardens was designated an All-American Judging Garden to conduct research on annual flowers. Since 1985, private contributions made many new gardens possible including the

Rose, Rock, Centennial Prairie, Iris, True Lily, Mum, Native Prairie Collection, Oak Tree Memorial Garden, All-Red Specialty Garden, Peony Garden, Shrub Rose Collection, and Children’s Maze. In August 1994, McCrory Gardens dedicated the Mickelson Grove Memorial in honor of former governor and Brookings resident George S. Mickelson. In 1982, they dedicated the area north of the formal garden to the planting and testing of ornamental trees and shrubs. The 45-acre site was designated the South Dakota State Arboretum in 1988. The arboretum’s purpose is to test woody plants needed to protect agricultural fields and livestock from the region’s harsh environment, to provide hardy trees to shade our towns and cities, and to test ornamental shrubs for both durability and beauty.

COOLIDGE-SYLVAN THEATRE—The Sylvan Theatre, located on the southwest corner of campus, is an outdoor amphitheater that has been the site of concerts, graduations and inaugurations of university presidents since its dedication by President Calvin Coolidge in September 1927.
South Dakota State’s most recognizable landmark may be the 165-foot Coughlin Campanile, the state’s largest chimes tower. A climb of 179 steps leads to a panoramic view of the city. 1909 Engineering graduate Charles Coughlin, who later went on to become head of the Briggs & Stratton Corporation, donated the statuesque structure on the west end of campus at a cost of $65,000. Coughlin laid the campanile’s cornerstone on June 10, 1929. Since then, its chimes call students to classes with the famous Westminster peals. An alumni-sponsored project to restore the campanile was completed in the summer of 2001. Named after a former SDSU President, The Hilton M. Briggs Library, the state’s largest, opened in 1977 and joined South Dakota’s statewide automated library network in 1988.Through the library, users can access holdings from all 10 of the state’s libraries, including official documents and more than 1 million other holdings at Briggs. Adjacent to the campanile, CoolidgeSylvan Theatre provides a restful, green haven for students since its dedication by President Calvin Coolidge in September 1927. Over the years the outdoor amphitheater hosted concerts, graduations and inaugurations for university presidents. Woodbine Cottage, the home of the university president, is a charming example of Queen Anne architecture. Built in 1887 by South Dakota Agricultural College’s second president, Dr. Lewis McLouth, the home is crowned by multiple rooflines. The house also served as a women’s dormitory, music hall and infirmary.
SOUTH DAKOTA ART MUSEUM—The museum is home to several collections, including early Sioux Indian tribal art, the famed Harvey Dunn paintings of pioneer life, and the exclusive Vera Way Marghab linens. The South Dakota Art Museum also has a variety of other exhibits throughout the year.

About SDSU The Jackrabbits
Two theories exist as to how and why SDSU’s athletic teams became known as the “Jackrabbits.” Most believe that the name “Jackrabbits” came from a story and cartoon sketch that appeared in a Minneapolis newspaper following a 1905 football game between the University of Minnesota and South Dakota State College. Many believe that a reporter for the newspaper, knowing of the preponderance of jackrabbits in the Brookings area, wrote that the SDSC team was as quick as jackrabbits. Many people believe that the school adopted the Jackrabbits as its official nickname from that beginning. The other theory about the origin of the nickname came in The Jackrabbit, SDSU’s yearbook. A poem in the 1907 yearbook puts forth the idea that the yearbook is called The Jackrabbit because a group of juniors wished to immortalize themselves by changing the name of the yearbook. Athletic teams followed suit, adopting the nickname. Prior to the adoption of the Jackrabbit nickname, fans knew the school athletic teams as the Barn Yard Cadets as SDSU was known as South Dakota State College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts in 1907. The Jackrabbit can run at speeds of 30to-35 miles per hour, with bursts up to 45, making it the second fastest animal in North America, second only to the pronghorn antelope, which can run at speeds up to 60 miles per hour. Jackrabbits are, properly speaking, not rabbits but hares, with longer feet and longer ears than rabbits. Most hares live in open country, whereas rabbits - like cottontails live in brushy habitats. Jackrabbits can grow up to two feet long, weigh froms six to nine pounds, with ears up to eight inches long. Hares are vegetarians, eating tender herbs in summer, and woody twigs and bark in the winter.
MEMORIAL PARK—Memorial Park, located between DuPuy Military Hall and Briggs Library in the center of campus, honors SDSU students who have served in the armed forces, including Congressional Medal of Honor recipients Capt. Willibald Bianchi and Col. Leo Thorsness. The park was dedicated in the fall of 2000.
Brookings, South Dakota
Named after W.W. Brookings, who came to the area in 1857. That winter, his legs froze badly enough to force doctors to amputate them. Undaunted, Brookings stayed and eventually became president of the territorial council and a judge in the state supreme court. In honor of his support of railroad construction, and possibly because of his stalwart nature, South Dakota’s first locomotive was named the “Judge Brookings.” Situated at the intersection of U.S. Highway 14 and Interstate 29, about 20 miles west of the Minnesota border and 50 miles north of Sioux Falls, the Brookings community of about 18,500 people continues to grow. The community also houses several recognizable companies including Rainbow Play Systems, Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing (3M medical products), Larson Manufacturing (doors and windows), and Daktronics, a leading manufacturer of scoreboards and display systems.
HILTON M. BRIGGS LIBRARY—Shown above is the entrance to South Dakota’s largest library, which was opened in 1977 and later joined the state’s automated library network in 1988. Through the library, users have access to holdings from all 10 of South Dakota’s libraries, including official documents and more than 1 million other holdings in Briggs.

Sell oversees the Jackrabbits’ 21-sport Division I varsity athletics program. Eighteen SDSU teams compete in The Summit League, while football competes in the Missouri Valley Football Conference of the Football Championship Subdivision and wrestling competes as a member of the Western Wrestling Conference. Women’s equestrian competes under the umbrella of the National Collegiate Equestrian Association. Under Sell’s leadership, SDSU athletics continues to make strides in athletic competition, in the classroom, in fundraising and in reconnecting with alumni. Athletically, the Jackrabbits claimed a total of 10 regular and postseason league championships in five different sports since 2009-10. That success earned SDSU The Summit League Commissioner’s Cup all-sports trophy following the 2010-11 season, after a runner-up finish the year before. Also in 2010-11, SDSU earned the league’s Sportsmanship Award, an award voted upon by their peers. In the classroom, Jackrabbit student-athletes continually post a gradepoint average of 3.2 or higher in more than 70 different majors, which led SDSU to winning The Summit League’s Institutional Academic Achievement Award for the 2009-10 academic year and the Missouri Valley Football Conference Academic Award in all four years in the league (2008-11). In January of 2011, Sell announced a partnership with Learfield Sports, signing a 10-year deal worth $13 million for SDSU athletics.

Sports Properties” that directs all aspects of the partnership, including managing and selling multimedia and sponsorship rights for South Dakota State Athletics. In addition to the deal with Learfield Sports, Sell directed the implementation of the Letterwinners Club, which provides opportunities for Jackrabbit Athletics to reconnect and stay connected with former studentathletes, while supporting current student-athletes at South Dakota State. In the years to come, Sell wants to continue reconnecting with former Jackrabbit student-athletes and enhancing the athletic facilities while still maintaining success, both in competition, but more importantly, in the classroom. On the facilities front, Sell oversaw the completion of the Dykhouse Student-Athlete Center in 2010, and developed the 2025 SDSU Athletic Facilities Master Plan. Additionally, Sell spearheaded efforts to add permanent seating and a press box at Erv Huether Field, chairback seating in both Frost Arena and Coughlin-Alumni Stadium and continues working towards the building of an indoor practice facility and football stadium.
