MORE THAN 700 COMPANIES WORLDWIDE TRAVEL TO CAMPUS EACH YEAR TO RECRUIT LOUISIANA TECH GRADUATES

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.”

-- D r. 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)

Shorter academic sessions (12 weeks instead of 18)

More frequent breaks during and between academic sessions

ore opportunities to withdraw or drop a class M and still remain TOPS eligible

TENNIS COMPLEX Situated in the heart of all of the Louisiana Tech athletic facilities -- surrounded by Joe Aillet Stadium, the Thomas Assembly Center, the Lady Techster Soccer Complex and the Jim Mize Track and Field Complex -- are eight lighted tennis courts that make up the LA Tech Tennis Complex.

Construction on the facility began in March 2008 and concluded five months later in August. Then on Oct. 15, 2008, the women’s tennis team played and swept Grambling State in their inaugural match at the new facility. A dedication ceremony took place two weeks later as then Tech President Dr. Dan Reneau officially announced it as the Louisiana Tech Tennis Complex. In the spring of 2015, all eight courts received a facelift by being resurfaced.

The Lady Techsters have tallied an all-time record of 46-22 at their home courts. Over the last seven spring seasons, the team is 39-10 at home which included a season-best nine wins in 2011 and an undefeated home season in 2013 and 2017.

The facility has also seen the Lady Techsters host its first-ever conference match on April 8, 2010 against Hawai’i. They then notched their first-ever conference win a few days later on April 10 against San Jose State. Another highlight moment came on April 5, 2016 when LA Tech played its first ever home match as a nationally-ranked team.

AMANDA

STONE Head Coach

Amanda Stone, one of the up and coming young coaches in the country, joined the Louisiana Tech Family in September of 2016 to take over the reins of the Lady Techster tennis program.

In year one, she helped guide LA Tech to a 12-win spring season which included an undefeated mark at home (first since 2013). She coached two Lady Techsters -- Jazmin Britos and Nadja Manjon -- who were named AllConference USA. The freshman Manjon registered 27 dual wins (singles and doubles) which was the third most by a LA Tech freshman in program history.

Prior to coming to Ruston, Stone recorded an 86-20 record and four straight Sweet 16 appearances in the NCAA Tournament during her four seasons as the head coach at Northeastern State (Okla.), a Division II

program located in Tahlequah, Oklahoma.

The two-time MIAA Coach of the Year returned the RiverHawks back to national prominence, as the team shot up the rankings all four seasons Stone served as head coach. She posted at least 20 wins in each of her four years, which included four straight trips to the NCAA Championship Round of 16.

She also led NSU to three-consecutive MIAA Regular Season Championships (2014-16).

Stone boasted two ITA All-Americans, one ITA Central Region Senior Player of the Year, one ITA Central Region Player to Watch, one MIAA Player of the Year, and two MIAA Freshmen of the Year during her time at Northeastern State. Of the 15 players who competed in the program since Stone took over in 2013, 14 earned All-MIAA honors at least once. Those 14 student-athletes amassed 38 all-conference accolades.

She took over the reins of a program that was unranked at the time and led it to the school’s first ever Top 10 ranking which came at the end of the 2016 campaign.

Off the court, the RiverHawks were one of the nation’s top academic programs. Over the last four years, NSU touted one CoSIDA Academic All-American, four CoSIDA Academic All-District honorees, eight ITA Scholar-Athletes, one MIAA Academic Excellence award winner, 10 MIAA ScholarAthletes and 13 members of the MIAA Academic Honor Roll.

The 2016 contingent went 20-4 overall with an undefeated (10-0) mark against MIAA opponents for the second-straight year. Northeastern State won the MIAA Regular Season Championship for the third year in a row and hosted the 2016 NCAA Central Region 1 Championship. The RiverHawks won the regional and advanced to the NCAA Championship Round of 16 for the fourth-straight year.

All six members of the team earned All-MIAA honors, and Patricia Husakova was selected as the MIAA Player of the Year. She was also named an ITA All-American and was chosen as the ITA Central Region Senior Player of the Year. Husakova and doubles partner Molly Worden ended the season No. 15 in the nation.

The 2015 team posted a 20-6 mark, which included a perfect 10-0 record in the MIAA. NSU claimed its second-straight MIAA title and served as hosts for the 2015 NCAA Central Region 2 Championship. The RiverHawks went on to win the regional and advance to the NCAA Championship Round of 16.

Northeastern State ended the season ranked No. 18 in the nation and all eight members of the team earned All-MIAA honors. Both Kristina Savchenkov (No. 14) and Patricia Husakova (No. 39) earned national ITA singles rankings during the season, and they also teamed up to comprise the nation’s No. 10-ranked doubles tandem.

The 2014 squad went 23-6 and captured the first conference championship for any NSU sport since the university joined the MIAA. Northeastern State ended Southwest Baptist’s stranglehold on the MIAA by snapping the Bearcats’ 32-match win streak against league opponents. The RiverHawks also won a pair of matches in the NCAA tournament to advance to the Round of 16.

The team finished the year ranked No. 20 in the nation after toppling six ranked opponents. Kristina Savchenkov ascended to No. 17 in the nation in singles and was honored as an ITA All-American. NSU boasted seven individuals who picked up All-MIAA honors, which included three first teamers.

Valeriia Efimenko also garnered MIAA Freshman of the Year accolades.

In her first campaign, she turned what was a 10-9 program the year before back into one of the premier programs in the nation. The 2013 season saw NSU finish at 23-4 overall and advance to the NCAA Round of 16 for the first time since 2007. The 23 wins were the most since 2006, and the RiverHawks also finished runner-up in their first year in the Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association with a 9-1 record. Northeastern State defeated four ranked teams in 2013 and went from unranked at the beginning of the campaign to No. 27 in the nation by years’ end.

Stone led the doubles team of Ivana Belejova and Savchenkov to a national ITA rank of No. 19, and Savchenkov earned a national singles ranking of No. 49. She was honored as the 2013 MIAA Freshman of the Year. The team had seven All-MIAA performers, including four members of the first team.

Stone returned to Tahlequah after spending two years at the University of Rochester (N.Y.), where she served as an assistant coach for both the men’s and women’s tennis programs. Her responsibilities with the YellowJackets included organizing, scheduling and planning daily practices, budget management, recruiting, marketing, and player development.

She graduated cum laude from NSU in 2007 with a Bachelor of Art degree in mass communications and a minor in studio art. She is currently working towards a Master of Science degree in marketing at Rochester.

Stone attended Northeastern State from 2004-07, where she served as one half of the top doubles tandem and played anywhere from No. 3 to No. 5 singles.

She made two national tournament appearances, attained a No. 11 national doubles ranking in 2007 and posted an undefeated singles mark her senior year.

Her first collegiate stop was at Oral Roberts, where she played basketball during her freshman campaign. She played in 22 games and made six starts in her lone season as a member of the Golden Eagles, helping lead the squad to an 18-10 record.

Stone worked at Garmin International as a consumer technical writer prior to attending graduate school (2008-11). She has also served as an assistant tennis pro at Indian Springs Country Club in Tulsa (2007) and as an assistant coach for Girls on the Run (2010-11).

DR. LES

GUICE

University President @LKGuice

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 state-wide 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 by 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 – one grandson, Christopher, and twin granddaughters, Elizabeth and Everly.

TOMMY

McCLELLAND Director of Athletics @TMcClelland

Since stepping on campus in July of 2013, the cornerstone of Louisiana Tech Director of Athletics Tommy McClelland’s leadership has been the philosophy of building champions on the playing fields, in the classrooms and in life.

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.

If 2015-16 is any indication, McClelland’s philosophy is paying dividends in Ruston. During McClelland’s third year sitting in the AD chair in Ruston, the University’s student-athletes combined to record one of the most successful years in recent history.

“What a great job by our coaches, our student-athletes and our support staff this past year,” said McClelland. “It was truly a memorable year in so many ways. We preach building champions on the field, in the classroom and in life, and I truly believe we had more than our share of all of those during the past 12 months.

“I think this year was one we can build upon. We never want to be satisfied, and we are always striving for even greater things. That’s our philosophy. However, when we look back at the past year, we know that a lot of blood and sweat and tears went into the successes that Louisiana Tech and its student-athletes had on the playing fields and in the classroom.”

How impressive was 2015-16?

Louisiana Tech joined Florida, Florida State, Ohio State and Ole Miss as the only five Football Bowl Subdivision schools to recorded 9-plus wins in football, 20-plus wins in men’s basketball and 40-plus wins in baseball.

That’s pretty elite company.

It was also one of only 12 FBS programs to play in the postseason in each of those three sports, joining Florida, Connecticut, Florida State, Texas Tech, Texas A&M, Ohio State, Washington, Duke, Arizona, Utah and Miami (Fla.). Not a bad crowd in which to be included.

The impressive year started in late August when the brand new $23 million Davison Athletics Complex – which encloses the south end of Joe Aillet Stadium – opened and the second largest crowd in Tech football history watched the Bulldogs defeat Southern in the season opener.

It was just the beginning of a great season for head coach Skip Holtz and the Bulldogs, who defeated Sun Belt Conference champion Arkansas State 47-28 in the R&L Carriers New Orleans Bowl. It was the first back-toback bowl victories by LA Tech in program history (Tech defeated Illinois in the 2014 Heart of Dallas Bowl).

The year culminated in June when the Bulldog baseball team – which was picked 11th in the preseason C-USA Coaches Poll – earned its first ever at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament, winning a pair of games in Starkville while advancing to the regional championship game against Mississippi State. The Diamond Dogs posted 10 wins over Top 25 teams, including a three-game conference sweep of the Rice Owls. Tech earned the program’s first ever at-large berth and its first regional appearance since 1987, defeating 4-time NCAA champion Cal State Fullerton. Tech’s 42 wins were the sixth most in program history and the most since 1988.

It was a truly memorable year on the playing fields, including: The Bulldog golf team shocked everyone in route to capturing the Conference USA team title (its first since 1980) and clinching the program’s first ever appearance in the NCAA Regionals.

The Lady Techster tennis team recorded the program’s first win over a nationally ranked team (defeated No. 45 Georgia State) while also earning its first ever national ranking. Chad Camper was named the LSWA State Coach of the Year for the second time in three seasons.

The Lady Techster soccer team qualified for the C-USA Tournament for the third time in four years and recorded the program’s 100th win. Katie Sloan also became the 17th student-athlete in LA Tech history to earn Academic All-American honors.

The Lady Techster softball team recorded a 32-win season, its first back-to-back 30-plus win seasons since the late 1990s. Tech won five straight league series for the first time in program history and fell just percentage points shy of winning the West Division. Tech also drew a program

home record 1,927 fans against LSU. The Bulldog basketball team won 23 games, eight of those coming against teams that participated in the postseason, including Ohio State and Florida Gulf Coast. Tech advanced to its fourth straight postseason tournament, while senior guard Alex Hamilton was named the Conference USA Player of the Year and honorable mention AP All-American.

The LA Tech track and field teams also had some impressive individual performances as Jermey Hicks earned second team all-American honors in the indoor 60-meters, advancing to the NCAA Indoor Championships.

Adams represented the University in the NCAA Outdoor Championships, competing in the long jump in Eugene.

Off the playing field, the LA Tech Athletics Department had a stellar year as well. Seventy-five student-athletes earned their bachelor’s or master’s degrees while 151 made the C-USA Commissioner’s Honor Roll and 27 received the C-USA Commissioner’s Academic Medal.

Tech’s student-athletes recorded a Graduation Success Rate (GSR) of 83 percent and a Federal Graduation Rate (FGR) of 62 percent, with both being record highs for the University. Louisiana Tech’s 83 percent graduation success rate ranks as the second highest in the state among Division I football-playing public institutions, trailing only LSU by one point (84).

Louisiana Tech also made the announcement in the fall that it partnered with adidas America, Inc. to establish a transformational 5-year exclusive agreement that will outfit all 16 NCAA men’s and women’s programs in adidas uniforms, apparel, footwear and equipment through the 2020-2021 athletics season.

Tech alumni and fans also continued to buy in to the vision for the athletic department as the Louisiana Tech Athletics Club (LTAC) set an all-time high in total LTAC giving and most total LTAC donors.

2015-16 was truly amazing.

Shortly after his hiring in 2013, McClelland re-energized the LA Tech fan-base when he joined President Guice in an October press conference revealing the updated plans for the Davison Athletics Complex located in the south endzone of Joe Aillet Stadium - the centerpiece of the University’s Quest for Excellence capital campaign. McClelland completed the fundraising needed for the project, and the new facility opened in August of 2015. It generates an additional $500,000 annually in revenue.

Another marquee addition to the Louisiana Tech athletic facilities during McClelland’s tenure is 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 included 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 pair of record-setting years in fundraising. During the 2013-14 fiscal year, McClelland spearheaded the efforts in raising more than $10.8 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.

The 2014-15 fiscal year saw record totals in Louisiana Tech Athletic Club (LTAC) unrestricted donations -- both in dollar figures and in total number of donors. It also included increases in ticket sales in football, men’s and

women’s basketball.

Tech had plenty of success stories on the playing fields during those first two years, led by the Bulldog basketball team winning back-to-back Conference USA regular season titles and advancing into the NIT with impressive road wins over SEC foe Georgia (2014) and Texas A&M (2015). The Dunkin’ Dawgs tied the program single season wins record (29) in 2014 and totaled 56 wins during the two year span.

On the gridiron, the Bulldog football team captured the Conference USA West Division title in 2014, recording a 9-5 overall record and barely falling to Marshall in the C-USA title game. Tech earned an invitation to the Heart of Dallas Bowl and promptly defeated Big 10 foe Illinois 35-18.

Tech sophomore Victor Lange became the first Bulldog golfer ever to earn an NCAA Regional appearance, competing in the San Antonio Region in 2014 and Lubbock Region in 2015.

He also hired one of the rising stars in college baseball in Greg Goff, a 21-year coaching veteran. In just two seasons in Ruston, Goff led the program to this year’s NCAA Regionals before being hired by SEC member Alabama.

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, former 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 studentathletes 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 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 (6) and Grayson (5).
