Media Information

Media Credentials

Passes for Louisiana Tech baseball games are limited to the working media only. Only authorized personnel will be admitted to the press box. Space is limited, so please contact Anna Claire Thomas in the Louisiana Tech Athletic Communications office for credentials. Requests should be made well in advance due to the limited space. Passes not picked up at the Athletic Communica-

tions office or received by mail will be left at the front of the stadium for pickup. Please contact Thomas at least one week in advance concerning credentials for road games. Media may park in the lot on Alabama Avenue adjacent to the stadium; however, space is limited and parking will be available on a firstcome, first-serve basis as players, coaches, game day staff and season-ticket holders also park in this lot. Additional parking is available in the lot across Tech Drive adjacent to the Lady Techster Softball Complex.

Radio

Visiting radio crews are welcome at J.C. Love Field at Pat Patterson Park. One courtesy broadcast line will be provided in the press box for official stations. Space is limited, so we ask that broadcasting crews be limited to two air persons and one technician. Please direct all questions to Anna Claire Thomas at 318.331.3813 or acthomas@latech.edu.

Phone/Internet

Louisiana Tech will provide three phone lines in the J.C. Love Field at Pat Patterson Park Press Box, one for each team’s radio crew and one for phone calls. Wireless internet access and a hard line is also available for working media and radio crews in the press box.

Post-Game Procedures

A full NCAA box score will be provided at the end of each game. Anna Claire Thomas will serve as the official scorer for all home games. Head coach Greg Goff will be available for all media on the field approximately 10 minutes after the conclusion of the game. Player interviews will also be done on the field after the cooling-off period. Contact Anna Claire Thomas by the beginning of the final inning to make arrangements for these interviews.

Louisiana Tech’s official athletics web page, LATechSports.com, has up-to-date information on all of Tech’s varsity programs. The site is maintained by the Athletic Communications office through CBS Sports. Weekly releases, updated statistics, rosters, schedules, and photos can be viewed at the official web site. Live stats are also available for each home game through CBS Sport’s Game Tracker.

Interview Policy

All player and coach interview requests must be directed through the Athletic Communications office. Reporters should submit interview requests at least 24 hours in advance by either calling Anna Claire Thomas at 318.331.3813, or through email at acthomas@latech.edu. It is NEVER permissible for media members to call student-athletes directly on their home phones or cell phones. Practices are open to the public, but reporters wishing to interview players before or after practice should contact Thomas at least 24 hours in advance.

Field Access Policy

Members of the media are not allowed to shoot footage, photos, etc. from inside or directly next to the LA Tech dugout on the field. Instead, members are more than welcome to shoot from the camera area near the opposing team’s dugout, the area behind the fence between the Bulldogs’ dugout and their bullpen (not the bullpen itself) and from the stands. When the baseball team is on the road, the policy regarding the media’s access near the Bulldogs’ dugout will remain in effect.

Dr. Les Guice became the 14th president in the history of Louisiana Tech University on July 1, 2013.    “ Louisiana Tech has a really great foundation of excellence, and we’re not starting from scratch by any means. We’ve got so many of the ingredients in place. My vision is to continue to progress Louisiana Tech in national prominence, but to turn that national prominence into things that bring benefit to North Louisiana, to our citizens of this state and to all of the students and stakeholders of the university.” -- Dr. Les Guice, University President

Quarter System – Big Advantage for the Student-Athlete Louisiana Tech has a unique advantage of being on the quarter system as opposed to the semester system. The quarter system provides significant advantages for the students: Lighter workload (take 3 classes instead of 5)

“By joining one of the many on-campus organizations as a freshman, you will immediately meet new people who share similar interests. It is a place where people make you feel like family.

J . C . L ov e Fi e ld at Pat Patterson Park

Entering its 45th year of service, modern J.C. Love Field at Pat Patterson Park continues to be one of the top playing facilities in the south. Since the facility opened in 1971, the stadium has seen the Bulldogs amass an impressive 762-4291 (.639) home record, making “The Love Shack” one of the toughest venues for opposing teams. The facility has undergone several renovations in recent years with the newest additions including a state-of-theart locker room and players’ lounge for the Bulldogs underneath the stadium, which was completed in time for the start of the 2014 season. Renovations also included the addition of a ticket office, laundry room, equipment room and training room. Mondo flooring, a heavy resistant sports flooring, has also been installed throughout the facility. When Greg Goff became the seventh head coach in Tech history on June 6, 2014, he made it a priority to put his stamp on the historic stadium early on. During their first six months on the job, Goff and his three assistants brought new signage into the locker room, removed the grass base paths in favor of dirt down the lines and completed their grandest project yet, installing a turf halo with the primary LA Tech logo behind home plate. “We put a halo around home plate and really tried to establish that as people walk into the stadium, people recognize something new and where the direction of the program is going,” Goff said. “We re-did our mound and home plate and just a number of things cosmetically we are trying to do to make the appearance of the field a lot better.” Goff and Co. also made the decision to renovate offices on the visitor’s side of the stadium into permanent coaches’ offices in order to gain easier access to players, rather than remain in the former baseball offices in the Thomas Assembly Center. Since the opening of the facility in 1971, the outfield fence has been moved back as much as 20 feet in some places and has been raised. The dimensions of the field are now (left-to-right) 315-370-385-340-325. Other renovations include

a new paint job and a new warning track, while windscreens were added, as well as a visitors’ bullpen. In 2008, a brand-new scoreboard was installed beyond the right field wall and a smaller scoreboard display behind home plate for spectators watching from beyond the outfield fence. The smaller display faces the outfield and the University Park Apartments beyond the left field fence. Approximately 400 new chairback seats were also added to the existing 300 to give more options to Tech season ticket holders. A new press box was constructed in time for Tech to host the 2008 WAC Tournament for the first time in the school’s history. It features two radio booths, a television booth, ample seating for media members, high-speed internet and multiple phone lines. On May 22, 2008, the facility was rededicated as J.C. Love Field at Pat Patterson Park in honor of Tech legend, Pat “Gravy” Patterson. In his honor, an outfield wall sign that bears a picture of the former coach in his Tech jersey with the years he coached and his record was installed in left-center field. His name was also imprinted on the outside wall of the press box that faces Tech Drive, and it has been added to the top panel on the scoreboard in right field. Centrally located on the Louisiana Tech campus, the facility features a seating capacity of 3,000, many of which are chairback seats. The ballpark also boasts picnic and viewing areas beyond the outfield wall that are popular with Tech fans and the infamous “Right Field Rowdies.” Tech’s baseball surface features a fully-automated sprinkler system and lights were installed prior to the 1978 season to allow the Bulldogs to play the majority of games at night. In 1997, a school-record 3,251 fans packed the stadium and beyond the outfield to watch the Bulldogs play eventual national champion LSU. The facility, known as Tech Stadium until 1982, was named in honor of J.C. Love, a Ruston businessman who whole-heartedly supported the Tech baseball program and the University.

Pat “Gravy” Patterson (1934-2007)

THI S I S BU L L D OG C OU N TRY

Louisiana Tech lost a coaching legend on Oct. 11, 2007, as Pat “Gravy” Patterson, longtime coach of the Bulldog baseball team, passed away at the age of 73. Patterson coached the Louisiana Tech Bulldogs for 23 years and upon retiring in 1990, he was the all-time winningest coach in Louisiana collegiate baseball compiling a record of 741-462-2. “The Louisiana Tech family has lost a wonderful person,” said former Tech President Dr. Dan Reneau. “Coach Patterson was a great friend and mentor to countless Tech students over the years, and he will be missed by all of us.” Patterson led Louisiana Tech to seven NCAA Tournament appearances during his coaching tenure, the last coming in 1987. In 1974, Patterson had the Bulldogs just one game away from the College World Series. Affectionately known as “Gravy” by Bulldog fans, Patterson came to Louisiana Tech in 1967 as an assistant football coach. One year later, he was hired as the Bulldog baseball head coach and served in dual roles before finally leaving the gridiron in 1978. “The entire Tech Athletic family mourns the loss of Coach Patterson,” said former Tech Athletic Director Jim Oakes. “We all grieve the loss of such a special man and outstanding coach. Coach Patterson left an unforgettable mark on his players and those of us who were fortunate to know him. This loss is very hard because Coach Patterson was beloved by everyone who knew him.” Patterson recorded 18 winning seasons in 23 years at the helm of Tech baseball and posted 40-win seasons five times. He was named the conference Coach of the Year seven times and the District VI Coach of the Year in 1974. “In my eyes, Gravy is Louisiana Tech baseball,” said former Tech baseball coach Wade Simoneaux. “Anytime anybody mentions Louisiana Tech baseball, his name always comes up. He set the bar so high that it’s not even attainable to do what he did here. He was an idol to me.” A 1958 graduate of Louisiana Tech, Patterson played football and baseball under legendary Bulldog coaches Joe Aillet and Berry Hinton, earning four football letters and two baseball letters. He went on to earn his master’s degree from the University of Mississippi in 1961. He began his coaching career in 1958 on the prep level at Ouachita Parish High School in Monroe, then took a job at Shreveport’s Byrd High School in 1963 before joining the Tech athletic department in 1967 as an assistant football coach. Although he finally left the gridiron in 1979, Patterson did return for one game as interim head coach in 1979, leading the Bulldogs to a remarkable 13-10 victory over rival Northeast Louisiana (now known as UL-Monroe) in his only game as head coach. “When I came in 1974, he was the first coach I was really involved with,” said longtime Tech broadcaster Dave Nitz. “He took me in and was always like a father figure to me. He would go on a recruiting trip and take me with him. He was Tech through and through. Nobody loved Louisiana Tech more than he did.” Patterson served for several years as Tech’s associate athletic director following his retirement from the diamond, overseeing eligibility of athletes and working closely with NCAA compliance. On three occasions, he was asked to step in as the university’s interim athletic director. He is a member of the Louisiana Tech Athletic Hall of Fame.

down the lines, re-painted the outfield wall and completed their grandest project yet, installing a turf halo with the LA Tech logo around home plate. “We came in and just kind of changed the mindset of the locker room with trying to support Louisiana Tech and Conference USA and get our guys to understand that is more important than themselves,” Goff said of the updates. “We put a halo around home plate and really tried to establish that as people walk into the stadium, they recognize something new and where the direction of the program is going.” While fans will certainly be able to visualize the changes made since Goff was hired in June, the real excitement will occur on Feb. 13 when LA Tech takes the field in Hammond to face a good Southeastern Louisiana team in the season opener. “We’re going to try and win every game,” he said. “Our goal right now is to win Conference USA. That is kind of the mindset we have taken with these guys. I think we have some talent and I’m excited about the opportunity to go out there and watch them play starting Feb. 13. We’ve made a lot of progress with these guys and feel we have a chance to compete in every game that is on our schedule this year, so it is going to be a fun season and we’re looking forward to getting out there and actually getting it done.” Position Players After losing seven seniors at the conclusion of last season, including five starters in the field, the Bulldogs will be looking to fill some holes in field in 2015, but 12 returning position players will help make the transition easier for LA Tech. In the infield, LA Tech’s Taylor Love leads the way and sets the standard as he returns as the starting shortstop and leading hitter from 2014 after batting .320 in 47 games with 12 doubles and 11 stolen bases. Seniors Thomas Simoneaux and Jordan Taylor also return for LA Tech and will see time at both second base and third, respectively, entering the season. Simoneaux played in 45 games in 2014 and started 42 at second base. The senior hit .212 last season, but it was his 18 sacrifice bunts that etched his name in the LA Tech record books for most sacrifices in a single season. Taylor played in 19 games last year and hit .304 with seven hits in 23 at bats as a reserve infielder for the Bulldogs. Chandler Hall and Taylor Nichols will also see time in the infield for Tech this season after playing sparingly throughout the 2014 campaign. Hall hit .250 as true freshman last season, while

Faith. Passion. Loyalty. Integrity. These are the four standards set by first-year head coach Greg Goff and his staff, comprising of Rick McCarty, Jake Wells and J.D. Hulse, when they were hired this past June to take over the Louisiana Tech baseball program. A tall task awaited the foursome, who came to Ruston ready to take the reins of a program that experienced minimal wins in recent years. The staff had lofty goals in mind before ever meeting their team and stepping on the field. In order to experience success quickly, the coaches knew their players would have to buy in to a new, more demanding system in little to no time. That meant each player was expected to embody the four standards listed above, which are displayed in LA Tech’s locker room as a constant reminder of the change in culture surrounding LA Tech Baseball these days. Goff doesn’t believe in rebuilding years. In his first season at Montevallo in 2004, a Division II program in Alabama, his squad won 26 games, just one shy of a .500 record. Fast forward to 2008 and the Jackson, Tennessee native totaled 27 wins in his second year at Campbell. He is averaging more than 34 wins a season in 11 years as a head coach. In the time he has been at the helm of a program, Goff’s squads have amassed at least 40 wins in a single season five times, including three straight 40-win seasons in his last three years with the Camels. Simply put, he is used to winning. He also made it clear early on in his time with the Bulldogs that he has a plan in mind for achieving success as a program. “I don’t really want to have a three or four year plan,” he said of taking over the LA Tech Baseball program. “I want to win right away. In order to do that, I feel like you have to recruit older guys, which come from junior colleges. And I have had a lot of success doing that. “Our ultimate goal is to eventually get some high school players that stay here for four years, but at this point, we are trying to turn the program around. It has been three or four years since we have had a winning season, so I want to make sure we have a chance of winning as soon as possible.” From the team’s first meeting in August to the first time they stepped on the diamond this past fall, the Bulldogs have firmly bought in to Goff’s energetic style of coaching and win-at-allcosts mentality. As a first-year guy, Goff’s handling of the team early in the process was crucial, as was the buy-in factor of the players remaining on the roster. Although the majority of guys he addressed in the team’s first meeting back in August were not “his guys”, Goff said his integration into the team has been better than he could have ever imagined. “We have some good leadership here and really good young men with character, so the transition has been really easy in that regard,” he said. “They have been very respectful and really have bought into our system and what we are trying to do, so that part of it has probably been a lot easier than what I thought. These guys want to win, so one of the first things we stressed to them was that some things have to change in order to be successful, and our guys have bought into that. Although I didn’t recruit most of them, to me, this is my team.” After taking the reins of the program on the field, Goff’s next step was putting his stamp on J.C. Love Field at Pat Patterson Park, a ballpark now in its 45th year of service. In six months, the four coaches have put up new signage around the field and in the locker room, removed the grass base paths in favor of dirt

Nichols appeared in 28 games and started 18 in his first season in Ruston. The Bulldogs welcome five newcomers to the infield in 2015, three of which transferred to LA Tech from junior colleges in the offseason. Expect to see Graham Ackal and Zac Burger spend time at first base this season, while Mason Paxton could also see valuable playing time at third base in 2015. Z.J. Buster and Ryan Hoogerwerf are the two lone freshmen on this year’s squad and could see playing time throughout the infield during the upcoming campaign. Goff and his staff have their pick of experienced outfielders this season with seniors Colby Johnson and Bre’shon Kimbell expected to start in left and right field for Bulldogs once again. Johnson was LA Tech’s most consistent hitter throughout the fall after hitting .260 as a junior last season. The Ruston native is expected to see valuable playing time in left field in his final season with the Bulldogs. Kimbell returns for his fourth and final year in the red and blue and will more than likely lock down his spot as the starting right-fielder for the fourth straight season. Kimbell posted a .234 average in 46 games a year ago with six doubles, three home runs and 18 RBI. Sophomore B.J. Findley could see a significant increase in playing time in 2015 after starting six of the 23 games he played in as a freshman last season. The former Ruston Bearcat will more than likely battle junior transfer Bryce Stark, who comes to Ruston from Hill College, for the starting spot in centerfield. Seniors Steven Blanchard and Conner Tobias, as well as redshirt sophomore Pierce Spangler, could also see time in the outfield for the Bulldogs in the upcoming season. Newcomers to the outfield position also include two junior college transfers in Bo Parker and J.D. Perry. Jacob Derouen returns for his senior season and will see time both behind the plate, at first base and as a designated hitter for the Bulldogs. Newcomer Michael Deceglie is expected to see the majority of time as a catcher for LA Tech in 2015, while freshman Brent Diaz will also split time behind the dish and as a designated hitter in his first collegiate season. Pitching Staff The Bulldogs return seven pitchers in 2015, including starter Phil Maton, who enters his senior season as the probable Friday night ace with a 3.49 career earned run average. After posting 66 strikeouts last season, the right-hander is currently ranked ninth in LA Tech history with 234 career punch outs. At the tail end of 2014, the Chatham, Illinois native also moved in 10th place in school history with 270.2 innings pitched in his decorated Bulldog career. Expect two southpaws to highlight LA Tech’s weekend rotation with juniors Tyler Clancy and Phillip Diehl set to start for the Bulldogs on Saturday and Sunday. Clancy comes to Ruston from Gateway Community College in Arizona, while Diehl hails from Cincinnati, Ohio and was a standout pitcher for Wabash Valley College last season. Senior Austin Greer returns for his senior season and will more than likely see time out of the bullpen in 2015 after starting 10 of his 13 appearances with a .367 ERA as a junior. Braden Bristo will also split time as both a starting pitcher and reliever after he impressed in his freshman campaign in 2014 with a 3.00 ERA in five starts and 19 appearances. Relievers Mark Baughman, Adam Derouen and Jared Keating all return to fill out the bullpen for Tech this season after combining for 35 relief appearances in 2014. Expect senior Laetten Galbraith to split closing duties with right-hander Adam Atkins, who transferred to LA Tech from Panola College in the offseason. LATechSports.com

Brandon Horne and Hunter Mitchell are two right-handers that could see time as both relievers and midweek starters after joining the Bulldogs from junior colleges prior to the fall. The final newcomer is Kelby Blalock, a lefthander from Baton Rouge Community College who will also see time out of the bullpen. 2015 Schedule The 2015 slate is highlighted by 29 home games, including eight weekend series at J.C. Love Field at Pat Patterson Park in Ruston, now in its 45th year of service. LA Tech is set to play a total of 55 games in 2015, including 14 three-game series, four of which will be non-conference matchups, and 13 midweek contests over the course of the campaign. The Bulldogs will also face off against four opponents that made the NCAA Tournament last season as Southeastern Louisiana, Arkansas, Rice and Old Dominion reached the postseason in 2014. “We have a challenging schedule ahead of us this season, but hopefully the non-conference schedule we are playing will prepare us for Conference USA play and give us an opportunity to play in the postseason,” Goff said about the upcoming campaign. The Bulldogs begin the season with a five-game road trip, as the 2015 season and the Greg Goff era will officially get underway on Friday, Feb. 13 at 6 p.m. with LA Tech traveling to Hammond to take on Southeastern Louisiana in what will be a return trip for the Diamond ‘Dogs after the Lions opened the 2014 campaign in Ruston a season ago. Now in its second year as a member of Conference USA, LA Tech will play 10 C-USA series in 2015, with the Bulldogs hosting five league opponents during the season. LA Tech will open conference play with no small task as the Bulldogs will travel to face the Rice Owls on March 13 in the league opener at Reckling Park in Houston. Louisiana Tech will follow up by opening its home conference schedule on March 20 when the Golden Eagles from Southern Miss make the trek to Ruston to battle with the Bulldogs. In addition to three-game series, LA Tech will also play 13 midweek games against regional opponents, including five that will be played on the Bulldogs’ home turf. Tech is set to play a home and away contest against Grambling State, UALR and Stephen F. Austin, as well as midweek matchups against McNeese State, ULM, Arkansas and Northwestern State. The 2015 Conference USA Baseball Tournament is set to be played at Pete Taylor Park in Hattiesburg, Mississippi for the second straight season.

Louisiana Tech Athletics Director Tommy McClelland introduced former Campbell University coach Greg Goff as the seventh head coach of the Bulldog Baseball program in a press conference on June 6, 2014 in the Jarrell Room of the Charles Wyly Athletic Center. Goff comes to Ruston after spending seven years as the head baseball coach at Campbell University in Buies Creek, N.C., where he amassed an impressive record of 224-174 in his time at the helm of the Camels program, including recording Head Coach three straight 40-win seasons. In 2014, Goff and his team captured the Big South @LATechGGoff Tournament Championship, which led to Campbell’s first NCAA Regional appearance in 24 years. In the team’s regional appearance, Goff and his team defeated Conference USA’s Old Dominion for the program’s first ever win in an NCAA Regional. “Greg is a proven winner. Everywhere he has been as a coach, he has developed a culture of winning on the field and in the classroom. This represents our philosophy of developing champions,” McClelland said. “We had an incredible pool of candidates, and through the process Greg separated himself as our top choice. We are fortunate to have him lead our baseball program into the future.” The 21-year coaching veteran led Campbell to its third straight 40-win season in 2014, as the Camels joined LSU, Florida State, Oregon, Oregon State, Louisville, South Carolina and Rice as the only NCAA Division I baseball programs with at least 40 victories in each of the last three years (2012-2014). From 2012 to 2014, Goff led the Camels to their only 40-win seasons in program history, which gave the Jackson, Tenn., native 131 wins in just three years. “I am extremely excited to get to work and eager to hit the ground running,” Goff said. “I am grateful to have the opportunity to coach at a great university with such wonderful fan support. It is great to have an opportunity to work at a university like Louisiana Tech that is nationally known with a great reputation. I like that Ruston is a baseball community that is going to be very supportive. I am ready to get things started. “The opportunity to compete in one of the top baseball conferences in the country in Conference USA is exciting. I know the state of Louisiana has a wealth of talent, and it is a great place to start our recruiting base out of because of the amount of talented players in the state and the surrounding areas.” In 2013, Campbell was crowned the Big South regular season champions, while Goff earned Coach of the Year honors for the league after winning a school record 49 games. His Campbell team was the only squad in Division I baseball ranked in the Top 10 nationally in both team batting average and team earned run average. The Camels also spent the majority of the 2013 season ranked nationally, which led to Goff being named one of Perfect Game’s 10 rising college coaches heading into the 2014 campaign. Prior to his seven years at Campbell, Goff spent four seasons as the head coach at the University of Montevallo, a Division II program in Alabama, where he led his squad to a 152-84 (.644) mark. In his final two seasons with the Falcons, Goff’s teams set the school record for wins in back-to-back seasons, with 43 victories in 2006 and 47 in 2007. He led Montevallo to its first ever NCAA Division II College World Series in 2006, where his team finished third and claimed the Southeast Region Championship. Goff was named the ABCA South Central Region Coach of the Year following the 2006 season, as his Montevallo squad was ranked third in the final Collegiate Baseball NCAA Division II poll after reaching the College World Series for the first time in the program’s history. That same season, he was also awarded Coach of the Year for all divisions by the Alabama Baseball Coaches Association. Before spending 11 years on the head coaching circuit, Goff led the nationally ranked Kentucky Wildcats as the pitching coach for four seasons from 1999 to 2003. He helped guide Kentucky to 38 victories in 2000, which marked a school record for wins in a season at the time. In all, Goff spent a total of 10 years as an assistant coach, with two of those seasons spent as both the pitching coach and recruiting coordinator for Southeast Missouri State from 1997 to 1999. The Bulldogs’ skipper began his collegiate coaching career in 1993 at his alma mater, Delta State, as a graduate assistant for DSU’s baseball team. Goff was promoted to full-time pitching coach for the Delta State Statesmen heading into the 1997 season. In his time as an assistant, Goff coached 23 professional draft picks, eight All-Americans, 25 all-conference performers and had two players awarded the Dick Howser National Pitcher of the Year. During his playing days, Goff pitched for Jackson State Community College, where he earned his associate’s degree in 1991. He then spent time on the mound at Delta State where he earned both his bachelor and master’s degrees in 1994 and 1996, respectively. Goff is married to the former Tina Newbill of Jackson, Tennessee. They have four daughters - Kara, Kiley, Kolby and Kenzie.

Louisiana Tech head coach Greg Goff announced on July 8, 2014 the hiring of his former Campbell University assistant head coach, Rick McCarty, as the second assistant coach for the Bulldog Baseball coaching staff. McCarty comes to LA Tech after spending the last four years in charge of pitching at Campbell during Goff’s tenure as head coach. The 12-year coaching veteran was named the assistant head coach prior to the 2014 season as he helped lead Campbell to new heights as a baseball program, including guiding the Fighting Camels to three straight 40-win seasons (41 in 2012; 49 in 2013; 41 in 2014) and their first NCAA Regional appearance in 24 years in 2014. “We are all very excited for Rick McCarty to join our staff here at Louisiana Tech,” Goff said. “Rick is one of the best pitching coaches in the country and our program will greatly benefit from him being here. His reputation of developing pitchers is second to none and I can’t wait to see him have the opportunity to work with our players and recruits here at LA Tech.” A native of Campbellsville, Kentucky, McCarty helped lead Campbell to the 2014 Big South Conference Tournament championship, while his team also won the Big South regular season championship in 2013 for the first time since the 1986 season. Over the course of the 2013 season, Campbell not only broke the school record for wins in a season with 49 victories, but the Camel pitchers, under the direction of McCarty, finished in the Top 10 nationally in team earned run average (2.63 - 7th). From 2011-14, McCarty’s pitching staff set single-season schools records for wins, ERA, strikeouts, innings pitched, fewest walks per nine innings, shutouts, saves, pick-offs and fewest hits per nine innings. His team’s 2.63 ERA in 2013 also set new Big South and Campbell records. During the 2013 record-breaking campaign, McCarty recruited and coached the first Big South Pitcher of the Year in program history as Ryan Thompson set the single-season record for ERA (0.88) for both Campbell and the Big South Conference. Following the 2013 season, Thompson became Campbell’s first All-American pitcher as he broke the singleseason saves record for the Camels in both 2013 and 2014, while also leading the nation in ERA. In addition to Thompson’s accolades on the mound, McCarty also recruited all four of Campbell’s All-Americans and three academic AllAmericans. In four seasons with the Camels, McCarty has coached 17 All-Big South Conference performers, including a school record nine honorees in 2013. Prior to coaching at Campbell, McCarty spent two seasons at Southeast Missouri State where he was responsible for pitching and recruiting. In his first season with the Redhawks, McCarty helped SEMO finish second in the Ohio Valley Conference in team ERA, strikeouts and opposing batting average. The Redhawks’ pitching staff had two members named to All-Ohio Valley Conference teams in 2010, including Shae Simmons, who was also named Freshman of the Year in the league. McCarty was also responsible for recruiting several key position players in his first recruiting class that helped SEMO finish the regular season with the ninth highest batting average in the country (.349). In addition, Southeast Missouri’s team batting average went from .316 in 2009 to .349 in 2010 with McCarty’s first recruiting class. From 2004-08, McCarty was an assistant coach at Division II powerhouse Delta State for five seasons. In McCarty’s five years with the Statesmen, the team posted a combined record of 236-65 and won the Gulf South Conference regular season championship four times. In 2004, Delta State won the school’s first Division II National Championship as the team set a school record with 54 wins over the course of the campaign. During McCarty’s tenure at Delta State, the team finished among the nation’s top-10 in ERA two times, appeared in four NCAA Regionals and totaled 19 All-Gulf South Conference honorees. A total of six members of Delta State’s pitching staff signed professional contracts during McCarty’s five seasons, including Brent Leach, who was drafted in the sixth round of the Major League Baseball Draft following the conclusion of the 2005 campaign, when the Statesmen finished fifth in the Division II World Series with a 52-10 overall record. Prior to coaching five seasons at Delta State, McCarty began his coaching career at his alma mater, Murray State, for one season in 2003 when the Thoroughbreds won the Ohio Valley Conference Tournament for the first time in 24 years and made an appearance in the NCAA Regionals. McCarty graduated from Murray State in 2003 with his bachelor’s

Assistant Coach - Hitting/Recruiting @CoachJakeWells Louisiana Tech head baseball coach Greg Goff announced on July 1, 2014 the addition of Jake Wells as an assistant coach to the Bulldog coaching staff. Wells, a former player under Goff at the University of Montevallo in 2004-05, comes to LA Tech as a hitting coach after serving two seasons as the coordinator of camps and volunteer assistant coach at Mississippi State. “I am extremely excited for Jake to join our staff here in Ruston,” Goff said. “He is an energetic young coach that has a great reputation for developing hitters and he is very respected in this business. We are thrilled he is bringing that experience to Louisiana Tech and this baseball program.” While at Mississippi State, Wells was primarily responsible for coaching first base for the Bulldogs, working with the catchers and coordinating the team’s winter and summer baseball camps. In 2013, Wells coached two catchers who went on to sign professional contracts and followed up in 2014 by coaching Mississippi State’s Gavin Collins, the first All-Southeastern Conference freshman catcher in the 124-year history of the program. Wells was also a part of a Mississippi State coaching staff that led the Bulldogs to back-to-back NCAA Tournament appearances, including finishing as finalists in the 2013 College World Series. “The opportunity to be with Coach Goff again, now as an assistant coach, is exciting,” Wells said. “I am eager for the opportunity to get on the road and recruit so we can put our fingerprints on this program. We want to continue to build on the success that Louisiana Tech is used to having.” A native of Devine, Texas, Wells is the first to join Goff’s staff, as he brings a total of seven years of coaching experience to Ruston, including a two-year stint as head coach at Marion Military Institute in Marion, Ala. In all, Wells spent five years at MMI beginning in 2008, while taking over as head coach for the 2011 and 2012 seasons. Over the course of five seasons at Marion, Wells coached 11 players who earned all-conference and all-region accolades, including the 2010 Alabama Community College Conference Player of the Year, Luis Pollorena, who is currently a member of the Texas Rangers’ organization. The 31-year-old has also served as camp manager for youth baseball camps in Montevallo, Ala., and Devine, Texas, while also serving as the manager for the Alabama Special Olympics State Tournament. In his prep days, Wells was an all-state catcher at Devine High School in his hometown. After high school, he continued his baseball career at Blinn College, Lurleen B. Wallace Community College in Andalusia Ala., and eventually at the University of Montevallo, where he earned his bachelor’s degree in 2005 in kinesiology and health promotions. In addition to his previous coaching stints, Wells also played professional baseball in the United League with the Laredo Broncos in 2009 and 2010. Wells is married to the former Melissa Sherrod of Longview, Texas.

As a staff, we are happy to have him on board and we are all looking forward to putting our stamp on this baseball program as soon as possible.” Hulse comes to LA Tech from his alma mater, Birmingham-Southern, where he spent two seasons on the coaching staff under Panther head coach Jan Weisberg.

2014 SEASON HIGHLIGHTS

NAVARI ENDS BULLDOG CAREER WITH DOMINANT PERFORMANCES

Richie Navari was constantly on his game in 2014. Each and every time the senior right-hander stepped on the mound, Louisiana Tech had the advantage, no matter the opponent. After struggling with injuries throughout the 2013 season, Navari spent the offseason rehabbing from arm surgery and came back for his senior season better than ever. He was quickly entered back into the Bulldogs’ 2014 rotation where he was a mainstay for the entirety of his senior season. The Pittsburgh native started 13 of the 14 appearances he made on the mound, including three complete games to add to his impressive senior campaign. In the first complete-game performance of his career, Navari threw a fourhitter to help lead Louisiana Tech to a 5-2 victory over C-USA opponent Tulane for the team’s inaugural win as a first-year league member. His second complete game was even more impressive, as Navari gave up one run and walked two batters to lead LA Tech to a 5-1 road victory over No. 25 Texas A&M in College Station. In his final appearance in a the red and blue, Navari was arguably at his best against No. 14 Rice when he held the Owls to three runs on seven hits in the 9.1 innings he pitched before being relieved by Adam Derouen. The

Bulldogs went on to lose that game to Rice, 4-3 in 11 innings, but it was Navari’s gutsy performance that was remembered on that day. The senior allowed just 29 runs - 24 earned - through 96.2 innings pitched this season and led LA Tech’s pitching staff in wins (5), earned run average (2.23), complete games (3), while also holding opponents to a .249 batting average. Navari also ended the season second on the Bulldogs’ staff with 51 strikeouts. Navari was ranked 12th in Conference USA with a 2.23 ERA, while also ranking third in the league and 48th in the nation with three complete games. His 2.23 ERA ranked in the Top 100 among all Division I pitchers in the country. Late in 2013, Navari’s hard work paid off as he was one of 80 college baseball players named to the watch list for the 2014 Gregg Olson Award, which honors the Breakout Player of the Year.

NAVARI, BULLDOGS SHUT DOWN #25 AGGIES IN COLLEGE STATION

After knocking on the door in the first two games of the series, Louisiana Tech used a four-run eighth inning and a complete game by Richie Navari to defeat No. 25 Texas A&M, 5-1, Sunday afternoon at Olsen Field at Blue Bell Park.

#WeAreLATech


The win over Texas A&M marked the first victory for Louisiana Tech over a ranked team since May 8, 2011 when the Bulldogs defeated No. 19 Fresno State in Ruston. Navari put together yet another lights out performance on the mound, allowing just one run in a complete game effort in College Station to earn the win for the Bulldogs. The game marked the second complete game of the season for Navari as the Bulldogs moved to 4-0 when the senior right-hander appeared in a game. With the game knotted at 1-1 after seven innings of play, LA Tech’s Taylor Love led off the eighth with a walk, followed by a single to centerfield by Tyler Qualls to give the Bulldogs runners on second and third with one out. Taylor Burch then produced the eventual game-winning RBI single to left field to score Love from second and give Tech a 2-1 lead, which was eventually stretched to a 5-1 advantage to seal the victory.

Louisiana Tech’s Stephen Gandy was named to the Conference USA Baseball All-Academic Team as the redshirt senior represented the Bulldogs on the 11-member squad. Gandy, a native of Farmerville, owned a perfect 4.0 GPA while pursuing a master’s in business administration at Tech. He earned honors six quarters while at Louisiana Tech, was a fivetime member of the Dean’s List and a one-time honoree on the President’s List. Gandy was also a recipient of the Conference USA Commissioner’s Academic Medal, as well as being named to the C-USA Commissioner’s Honor Roll this past spring. This season, Gandy posted a .267 batting average, while also totaling six doubles, two home runs and 15 RBI in the 37 games he appeared in as a designated hitter for the Bulldogs. He graduated Magna Cum Laude with a degree in marketing in May of 2013.

Maton Tosses Complete Game, Earns C-USA POTW Honors

Louisiana Tech pitcher Phil Maton was the lone Bulldog named Conference USA Pitcher of the Week in 2014, announced by the league on March 17, 2014, after posting a 2-0 record in two appearances in one week, including a complete game performance to beat Florida Atlantic in league play. In the span of one week, Maton picked up two big wins for the Bulldogs after allowing just one earned run off four hits in a total of 10.0 innings, while striking out nine. In league play, Maton pitched a complete game and struck out a season-high seven batters to lead Louisiana Tech to a 3-2 league win over Florida Atlantic. That win tied the series at one game apiece this past Saturday in Boca Raton, Fla. Maton earned the win for LA Tech after pitching the fourth complete game of his career and his first of the season. The Chatham, Ill., native held FAU hitless until the fourth inning and held Florida Atlantic to a total of just two hits until the ninth when the Owls ended Maton’s shutout by scoring two runs on two base hits in the final inning. The junior right-hander was lights out for the Bulldogs in his best outing of the season as he allowed just one FAU runner past second base up until the ninth inning. The win over FAU marked the second win of the week for Maton as he earned the victory for Tech last Wednesday when the Bulldogs defeated Grambling State, 8-1, in Ruston. In that game, he pitched a perfect inning in relief, adding two strikeouts to help lead Tech to its 19th straight win over Grambling. @LATechBSB

DR. LES

GUICE

University President @LKGuice

@LATechBSB

T H I S I S BU L L D OG C OU N TRY

Louisiana Tech University and President Les Guice share a rich history together that spans five decades and has produced family ties that are deeply rooted in a passion for the Bulldogs and Lady Techsters. From an architecture student stepping on the campus for the first time in 1972 to an appointment as Louisiana Tech’s 14th President in 2013, Dr. Guice has shown an unwavering commitment to leadership and service to his alma mater. One of Dr. Guice’s first achievements at Louisiana Tech was earning a bachelor of arts in architecture in 1976. Discovering a passion for engineering under the mentorship of Professor Jack Painter, Dr. Guice went on to earn a master’s degree in civil engineering from Tech in 1978. While working on his master’s degree, Dr. Guice also discovered a passion for teaching and education as a profession. Dr. Guice accepted a position as an assistant professor of civil engineering at Louisiana Tech in 1978 and was promoted to associate professor in 1981. A few short years after earning his Ph.D. in civil engineering from Texas A&M University in 1986, Dr. Guice was named the interim department head of civil engineering in Louisiana Tech’s College of Engineering in 1988 and earned the permanent department head position and full professorship in 1989. As department head, Dr. Guice initiated the formation of the Civil Engineering Advisory Board and the Civil Engineering Distinguished Alumni recognition program, both of which significantly enhanced alumni participation and significantly enhanced fund-raising for the department. Throughout the next decade, Dr. Guice would continue to distinguish himself as an academician, researcher, administrator and leader. His dedication to his students, his faculty and the university would lead to his appointment as Dean of Louisiana Tech’s College of Engineering and Science (COES) in 1999. As Dean, Dr. Guice continued to encourage and support innovations in the curricula. The College’s faculty became increasingly successful in securing external funding for the integrated curriculum which resulted in a transformative redesign of curricula throughout the College. Dr. Guice’s leadership and vision also reinvigorated the Engineering and Science Foundation to more effectively serve the needs of the College. He initiated a new integrated strategic plan, known as “COES 2010,” and capital campaign, “Tech’s BEST,” that led advancement of the college and to funding for an Eminent Scholar Chair, 15 Professorships, $500k Scholarship Fund, and several new laboratories and facilities. Dr. Guice leadership also helped to guide the Institute for Micromanufacturing (IfM) toward a focus on the emerging field of nanotechnology. With the hiring of key nanotechnology faculty in numerous disciplines, further expansion of research laboratories, establishment of an interdisciplinary engineering PhD program with a nanotechnology track, and initiation of a B.S. in Nanosystems Engineering, the IfM and COES established strong research and education nanotechnology programs that have received national recognition. In 2004, Dr. Guice’s performance and accomplishments as dean of the College of Engineering and Science led to his appointment as Louisiana Tech’s vice president for research and development. During his tenure as vice president and as executive vice president in 2012, Louisiana Tech has significantly increased patents, licenses/options, start-up companies, SBIR grants with affiliated companies, and has established strong industry partnerships for commercialization of technologies. Dr. Guice also led the establishment of Louisiana Tech’s first two technology incubators, the Rawle and Humana Enterprise Centers. With a focus on the future and a progressive vision for economic development, Dr. Guice has led the planning and development of the Louisiana Tech Enterprise Campus – a research park connecting the university and downtown Ruston. Enterprise Campus’ first building, Tech Pointe, was completed in 2012 and is now home for several companies and organizations, including an Air Force funded Cyberspace Research Laboratory. With the recent completion of Louisiana Tech’s new College

of Business building and renovation to University Hall as a home for interdisciplinary entrepreneurship and innovation activities, the first phase of Enterprise Campus is nearing completion. Dr. Guice’s reputation for exemplary leadership has not been bound by the campus or the region. Roles in statewide leadership have included election to serve as the founding Chair for the Louisiana Optical Network Initiative (LONI) Management Council, serving as Chair of the Louisiana EPSCoR Committee, and leading the development of a statewide science and technology plan, called FIRST Louisiana. Dr. Guice currently serves as Chair of the Board of Regents Master Plan Research Advisory Council and as chair of the Louisiana Innovation Council. Among the many awards and recognitions Dr. Guice has earned during his career is the Robert E. Russ Award from the Ruston/Lincoln Parish Chamber of Commerce (2009), Outstanding Civil Engineer from the ASCE Louisiana Section (2008), Louisiana Tech University Civil Engineering Distinguished Alumnus (2007), Louisiana Engineering Society’s James M. Todd Technological Accomplishment Award (2007), Governor’s University Technology Leader of the Year Award (2006), and Louisiana Engineering Society A.B. Patterson Medal for an Engineer in Management (2004.) On December 4, 2012, during a special session of the University of Louisiana System Board of Supervisors, Dr. Guice was unanimously voted to serve as the 14th President of Louisiana Tech University. Dr. Guice officially took over as President on July 1, 2013. As President of Louisiana Tech, Dr. Guice is the chief executive officer of north Louisiana’s only Carnegie Foundation national research university and one of only two public universities from Louisiana recognized in the top tier of national universities in the U.S. News and World Report. Dr. Guice leads a university that most recently has been ranked #11 in the nation in a list of “Most Underrated Colleges In America” (Business Insider), #17 in the nation in a list of “Low Cost Colleges with High Starting Salaries for Graduates” (Affordable Colleges Online), and #21 in the nation for providing its graduates with the best returns on their investments (AdvisorOne.) Throughout his career, Dr. Guice has contributed to and played a central role in creating the culture and vision for the future of Louisiana Tech, and continues that commitment as President. Dr. Guice’s focus on campus-wide engagement, building and growing relationships, and leadership in forging a path toward advancement of the university’s academic and athletic programs, research and commercialization activities, and economic development efforts means that Louisiana Tech University’s best days are yet to come. Dr. Guice is a native of Monroe and grew up in Bastrop. He and his wife, Kathy, have three sons – Kyle, Chad, and Bret – and one grandson, Christopher.

Tommy

McClelland Director of Athletics

THI S I S BU L L D OG C OU N TRY

@TMcClelland

Louisiana Tech boasts one of the rising young stars in the industry in Athletics Director Tommy McClelland, who enters his second year in Ruston after an impressive debut. McClelland joined the LA Tech Family when University President Les Guice introduced him as the new athletics director during a press conference at the Charles Wyly Athletic Center on July 16, 2013. McClelland, the youngest AD among all Football Bowl Subdivision athletic programs, came to Ruston after serving six years in the same position at McNeese State in Lake Charles. His first year in north Louisiana was a successful one. McClelland’s philosophy of developing student-athletes into champions on the playing fields, in the class room and in life is the cornerstone of his leadership style. While leading Louisiana Tech into the Conference USA era, McClelland impacted the athletics department through fundraising, facility improvements, coaching hires and overall student-athlete development. Shortly after his hiring, McClelland re-energized the LA Tech fanbase when he joined President Guice in an October press conference revealing the updated plans for the $20 million south end zone facility project – the centerpiece of the University’s Quest for Excellence capital campaign. McClelland completed the fundraising needed for the project, and the University broke ground in mid-April. An expected completion date is August of 2015. When completed, the three-story facility, 70,000-plus square foot building will benefit all of Louisiana Tech’s student-athletes; it will include a new state-of-the-art strength and conditioning complex utilized by all 16 of the University’s athletic programs. The building will also house football coaches’ offices, football locker room, team and position meeting rooms, club seating and a multi-functional dining space that can be utilized for athletic and campus events. Another marquee addition to the Louisiana Tech athletic facilities during McClelland’s first year was the $1.2 million Paul Millsap Vision presented by Community Trust Bank, a high definition video display board in the Thomas Assembly Center. The project also includes a customized sound system for the Thomas Assembly Center and a video board control room, which will be utilized for both football and basketball. These two major facility improvements and additional smaller scale projects were made possible through a record-setting year of fundraising. During the 2013-14 fiscal year, McClelland spearheaded the efforts in raising more than $10.9 million through both LTAC and Quest for Excellence; more than double any previous year in Tech Athletics history. Included in the record total were five, seven-figure gifts. Tech had plenty of success stories on the playing fields this year as well, led by Mike White and the Bulldog basketball team. The Dunkin’ Dawgs captured the regular season Conference USA title, tied the program single season wins record and advanced to the third round of the National Invitation Tournament after impressive wins over Iona and SEC foe Georgia. Following the season’s success, McClelland extended the contract of White, which enabled the University to hold onto one of the hottest commodities in the basketball coaching circles nationwide. In addition to the men’s basketball success, the Lady Techster tennis team recorded one of its best seasons in program history, posting a 15-7 record and earning the No. 5 seed in the C-USA championships. First-year head coach Chad Camper earned the Louisiana Sports Writers Association Coach of the Year Award, and the Lady Techsters earned their first ever regional ranking, finishing seventh in the southern region of the final Intercollegiate Tennis Association rankings. Tech sophomore Victor Lange became the first Bulldog golfer ever to earn an NCAA Regional appearance and competed in the San Antonio Region. Tech track and field had 13 student-athletes qualify for the NCAA regionals; six advanced to the NCAA championships in Eugene, Oregon. McClelland also made some tough personnel decisions, making

coaching changes in both women’s basketball and baseball. McClelland made a national splash with the hiring of Tyler Summitt to lead the tradition-rich Lady Techster basketball program. Summitt, son of legendary Tennessee Lady Vols coach Pat Summitt, is the youngest head coach of any Division I women’s basketball program. He also hired one of the rising stars in college baseball in Greg Goff, a 21-year coaching veteran who recently led Campbell to its third straight 40-win season. The Camels joined LSU, Florida State, Oregon, Oregon State, Louisville, South Carolina and Rice as the only NCAA Division I baseball programs with at least 40 victories in each of the past three years. Goff led the program to this year’s NCAA Regionals. Prior to coming to Ruston, McClelland made a national name for himself after quickly elevating to the athletics director position at age 26. He earned high praise from a number of high-profile, experienced athletic administrators. “Tommy McClelland is an outstanding leader and one of the nation’s rising stars in intercollegiate athletics,” said Bubba Cunningham, athletics director at the University of North Carolina. “He has a demonstrated commitment to supporting and developing his coaches and student-athletes and has already become well-known among ADs for his leadership, vision and character. Tommy has also shown a dedication to lifelong learning and the application of his skills and talents to making his athletic programs better.” Prior to being named athletic director at McNeese State on March 19, 2008, McClelland served as interim athletic director and assistant athletic director of internal affairs at the university. In his time at McNeese, McClelland and his staff had numerous success stories when it came to increased revenue streams and the overall game-day experience in Lake Charles. He raised more than $3 million in private donations, and he was instrumental in increasing corporate sponsorships to nearly $1 million, while securing new clients and multi-year sponsorships. McClelland was also responsible for increasing football season ticket sales: the program eclipsed the 8,000 mark in 2008 with a high of 8,035 in 2009. In addition, he was instrumental in setting single-game attendance records in baseball, volleyball, softball, soccer, women’s basketball and women’s tennis. “Tommy is a rising star in the college athletics administration field and, in my view, the ideal leader to advance Louisiana Tech’s athletics program as it transitions into Conference USA,” said Ian McCaw, athletics director at Baylor University. “He possesses impeccable integrity and has an extraordinary work ethic. Moreover, his interpersonal and relational skills are outstanding and will enable him to quickly connect with Bulldog fans as well as campus and community leaders.” One of McClelland’s main goals was to improve the life of the student-athletes and increase the game-day experience for the McNeese State fan base. One of the most effective ways to accomplish these goals was by improving the facilities. During his time at McNeese State, he oversaw a combined total of over $11 million dollars in facility renovation and new construction. The combination of increased revenue streams, renovations and

Mary Kay

Hungate

Deputy Athletics Director/ Senior Woman Administrator Deputy Athletics Director and Senior Woman Administrator Mary Kay Hungate enters her 29th year as a member of the Louisiana Tech Athletics Department and has proven to be an integral part in the emergence of the University’s programs on the playing fields and in the classroom. Not only does Hungate serve as the sports administrator for softball, women’s volleyball, men’s and women’s track and field, and women’s bowling, but she is also in charge of NCAA compliance for all of the university’s 16 NCAA sanctioned programs. As one of the top two ranking administrators in the Tech Athletics Department, Hungate is part of a senior staff that was instrumental in helping the University earn an invitation to join Conference USA starting July 1, 2013. In addition, Hungate and the current senior staff have also garnered a number of national awards, including the 2010 Turnkey PRISM Award which recognizes colleges for managerial excellence across four areas: marketing/branding; fan development; community relations; and customer/client service. The Tech athletics department also finished in the Top 10 three times in the Excellence in Management Cup, which recognizes the most

@LATechBSB

efficient athletic departments in the nation. Hungate serves a vital role in the hiring of head coaches. She served as the point person in the hiring process of head women’s soccer coach Kevin Sherry. Sherry led the Lady Techster soccer team to four straight winning seasons (the first ones in program history), the program’s first ever WAC victories and its first appearance in the WAC Tournament in 2010. She has also been involved in the hiring of a number of other highly successful coaches, including current Lady Techster basketball coach Tyler Summitt, son of legendary Tennessee coach Pat Summitt. Another of Hungate’s responsibilities includes overseeing the academic side of the Tech athletics department, another area which has improved drastically as proven by the fact LA Tech’s graduation rate continues to be one of the highest in the state (Federal Graduation Report). Louisiana Tech’s student-athletes continue to reach academic progress superlatives. For the sixth straight year the University recorded alltime highs in the most recent Federal Graduation Rate Report released by the NCAA last October. Tech’s student-athletes recorded a Graduation Success Rate (GSR) of 80 percent and a Federal Graduation Rate (FGR) of 59 percent, which both were improvements over last year’s numbers. Louisiana Tech’s 80 percent graduation success rate ranks as the second highest in the state among Division I football-playing public institutions, trailing only LSU (81). LA Tech’s graduation success rate is four percentage points higher than last year’s (76) and easily outdistances the state average of 66 percent among the other nine Division I footballplaying public institutions in the state of Louisiana. Twelve out of 16 programs at LA Tech also saw an improvement in their single year Academic Progress Rates (APR) over the previous year’s scores, including men’s and women’s indoor track and field, men’s and women’s outdoor track and field, and women’s cross country. Thirteen of Tech’s athletic programs earned a single year rate above 930 for 2012-13 led by perfect 1000 scores by men’s basketball, men’s golf, women’s tennis and women’s bowling. The women’s bowling team also earned an NCAA Public Recognition Award last week after their multi-year APR (1000) ranked in the top 10 percent among all the women’s bowling programs in the nation. Hungate also plays an important role in LA Tech’s NCAA Certification process. As a member of the Steering Committee and the liaison between the athletic department and the University’s Self Study Committees, she provides the information needed for the committees to write their reports. Hungate joined the Louisiana Tech staff in 1985 as an assistant women’s basketball coach and remained in that role for five years. During that time, the Lady Techsters participated in four Final Fours and won the NCAA National Championship in 1988. In 1990, Hungate made a move out of coaching and became assistant athletics director for academics and compliance as well as senior woman administrator. One of Hungate’s early accomplishments as assistant director of athletics was the creation of the Louisiana Tech Athletic Academic Center program. Hungate has served terms on the NCAA Division I Academics/ Eligibility/Compliance Cabinet, the NCAA Division I Interpretations/Legislative Review Subcommittee, the National Association of Collegiate Women Athletics Administrators Wade Trophy Selection Committee and as an NCAA Peer Reviewer. She has also served on the NCAA Division I Women’s Basketball Issues Committee since 2004. She served on the Western Athletic Conference Council, the Conferences’ Legislative Review Committee, the Finance Committee and the Code Book Committee. Along with Athletics Director Tommy McClelland, she represents the athletics department as an ex-officio member of the LA Tech Athletics Council. Hungate’s professional career began as Women’s Sports Coordinator and head volleyball, head basketball and head softball coach at Illinois’ Carl Sandburg Junior College. She spent four seasons at the college where she guided the basketball team to a mark of 80-22 which included an 11th place finish in the 1976 NJCAA national tournament. In 1978 Hungate took over the head coaching position at Richwoods High School in Peoria, Ill., and quickly compiled one of the top prep coaching records in the nation. During her seven seasons at Richwoods High School, Hungate’s team ran up an impressive record of 195-13, including a state-record 63 consecutive victories. Hungate was named the National Coach of the Year by USA Today in 1985. Before coming to Louisiana Tech, Hungate amassed a career coaching record of 275-35.

new construction, and a highly-involved fan base led to plenty of success stories on the playing fields. During his tenure as athletic director, McNeese won Southland Conference championships in football (2007, 2009), soccer (2006, tournament; 2007, regular season), softball (2010, tournament; 2013, regular season), men’s basketball (2011, regular season), women’s basketball (2011, regular season; 2011 and 2012 tournament) and men’s cross country (2012). The women’s basketball program made its first appearances ever in the NCAA Tournament, and the men’s basketball program hosted the first round of the NIT postseason tournament (Boston College live on ESPNU). Even more impressive is the fact that while the Cowboy and Cowgirl programs were capturing titles on the fields, the University’s student-athletes were making tremendous strides in the classroom. In five of McClelland’s six years as athletics director, McNeese State led the Southland Conference in the number of student-athletes named to the Commissioner’s Honor Roll. In addition, McClelland guided the resurgence in APR success in Lake Charles. The number of athletic programs boasting the required APR score of 925 went from four in his first year to all 16 in his final year. The community service hours performed by the MSU student-athletes also tripled to more than 3,000 during his tenure. “Tommy has a great knowledge of college athletics and excels at helping his student-athletes balance and succeed in their commitments to academics and athletics,” said Warde Manuel, athletics director at the University of Connecticut. “Tommy has also proven his ability to work effectively with coaches and administrators to help his programs be successful.” McClelland earned his bachelor’s degree from Northwestern State in 2004 and completed his master’s degree in sports administration in 2005. He walked on with the Demons football team and eventually earned a scholarship; he also competed in the javelin for the NSU track and field team. The native of Basile, Louisiana served as a graduate assistant at Northwestern State in athletics and also worked at the Southland Conference office as an administrative intern, assisting with championship events. McClelland is also a 2012 graduate of the Executive Program of the Sports Management Institute and attended instruction at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill’s Kenan-Flagler Business School and the University of Southern California’s Marshall School of Business. McClelland is married to the former Jessica Stokes of Garrison, Texas. They have two sons, Lawson (4) and Grayson (3).

efficient athletic departments in the nation. He was instrumental in forming the partnership between Louisiana Tech and CBS Interactive in the fall of 2007, including the redesign and hosting of the athletic departments website, LATechSports.com. As part of the agreement with CBS Interactive, a webstreaming platform - LA Tech All-Access -- was created, allowing fans from all over the world to watch live streams of almost all of the university’s home athletic events. LA Tech All-Access annually streams more than 125 live events. Butler has served as the host media coordinator for three NCAA Women’s Basketball First- and Second-Round sites hosted by Louisiana Tech (2000, 2001 and 2003) while also serving as the host media coordinator for the 2008 WAC Baseball Championships and the 2013 WAC Softball Championships hosted by Louisiana Tech. In addition to his media relations responsibilities, Butler serves as the radio play-by-play voice for the nationally-prominent Louisiana Tech Lady Techster basketball team. Butler has broadcast more than 480 women’s basketball games, including 15 NCAA Tournament games, during his 14 years behind the mic. He finished second in the Louisiana Sports Writers Association College Radio Play by Play category in 2013. He has also broadcast in excess of 200 softball games, including four in the 2008 NCAA Tournament, and served as the color commentator on numerous Bulldog football and basketball broadcasts. He served as the sideline reporter for the Bulldog football broadcasts in 2014. Butler joins Dave Nitz as the co-hosts of Inside Tech Basketball, an hour-long coaches radio show during the winter. Butler implemented a fundraising campaign for his department in the fall of 2007 and since that time it has raised over $40,000, which has been used to purchase additional equipment, software and other essentials within the media relations department. He is a member of the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA), Louisiana Sports Writers Association (LSWA), United States Basketball Writers Association (USBWA) and Football Writers Association of America (FWAA). He is also a proxy voter for the Louisiana Sports Hall of Fame committee.

Nate Warren begins his second year as the assistant athletic director for development where he oversees the fundraising efforts for the Louisiana Tech Athletic Department. Warren’s responsibilities at Louisiana Tech include identifying and securing private support with an emphasis on major gifts, cultivating and soliciting major gift societies, providing oversight for the Louisiana Tech Athletic Club, the Lettermen’s Club and the Director of LTAC. During his first year in his position, Warren teamed up with A.D. Tommy McClelland and the LA Tech Foundation to raise a record $10.9 million in total athletic gifts, nearly $6 million more than the previous year. Almost 1,300 individuals responded with financial gifts, including three separate major gifts of seven figures. A University of Tennessee and Kansas State alum, Warren came to Ruston after serving as the assistant director for development at K-State for more than two years. During Warren’s four-plus years at Kansas State which included two years as a graduate assistant, he oversaw the Ahearn Fund which experienced unprecedented growth from 5,454 members and $12.7 million in gifts to athletics when he arrived to 9,143 members and $25.8 million in gifts to athletics in fiscal year 2012. Much of the growth in the Ahearn Fund numbers was due to the increased focus on leadership annual giving of $10,000 and above, as well as increased focus in Kansas City, Kansas State’s largest alumni base. In his role as assistant director of development, he oversaw an active portfolio of over 150 Ahearn Fund members and prospects, primarily in Kansas City. In addition to his duties in Kansas City, he oversaw membership campaigns and special events, both in the Kansas City area and on campus for returning letter winners. Warren was also actively involved in fund raising for the West Stadium Center, the largest capital project in Kansas State University history both through philanthropic capital gifts and premium seat construction gifts. Some of his additional responsibilities at Kansas State included providing leadership in re-branding the Ahearn Fund across Kansas as well as nationally; fully overhauling the online signup process leading to a much more simple process for first time members to join the Ahearn Fund; helping implement and serving on the Marketing Task Force, a collaborative effort between the development and marketing departments, leading to more streamlined communications to both current and potential members; creating and running the R1SE UP member referral program, which led to over 300 new members via referrals from existing members; and soliciting and secured annual gifts from $50 to $15,000 and capital gifts up to $140,000. Warren earned his bachelor’s degree from Tennessee in sports management in 2008 while he completed his master’s degree in education administration and leadership from Kansas State in 2011.
