The Tigers celebrate on the field of Rosenblatt Stadium after winning the 2009 College World Series title.
A program of
Excellence Paul Mainieri, the 2008 and 2009 National Coach of the Year, begins his fourth season in 2010 as the head coach of the LSU Fighting Tigers. Mainieri, who directed Notre Dame to 533 wins and nine NCAA Tournament appearances in 12 seasons (1995-2006), was named on June 28, 2006 as LSU’s 25th baseball coach. He stated on that day that his goal was “to return LSU to the pinnacle position in college baseball.” He and his staff took an immediate first step toward that objective by signing the nation’s No. 1 recruiting class. In just his second season in Baton Rouge, Mainieri guided the Tigers to the 2008 College World Series. En route to the CWS, the Tigers won SEC Western Division and SEC Tournament titles, and LSU established a conference-record 23-game win streak from April 22-June 1. Then in 2009, Mainieri did indeed return the Tigers to “the pinnacle position” as LSU won the the national championship with an 11-4 victory over Texas in Game 3 of the College World Series Finals. Since April 22, 2008, Mainieri has guided the Tigers to a remarkable 82-20 (.804) record. 2010 LSU baseball official yearbook

Paul Mainieri, in just his third season at LSU, directed the 2009 Tigers to the College World Series title, posting a 56-17 overall record, including a 10-1 mark in NCAA Tournament competition. Mainieri earned 2009 National Coach of the Year recognition from Collegiate Baseball, Baseball America, Rivals.com and the American Baseball Coaches Association. The Tigers defeated Texas in the CWS Championship Finals to win the national title, LSU’s sixth CWS championship and its first since 2000. Mainieri also guided his squad to the 2009 Southeastern Conference regular-season and tournament titles. LSU played host to the NCAA Baton Rouge Regional, where the Tigers defeated Southern, Baylor and Minnesota to set up a Super Regional matchup versus Rice in Alex Box Stadium. LSU swept two games from the Owls, earning a berth to the CWS for the second straight season and for the 15th time in school history. The Tigers defeated Virginia in their CWS opener and recorded two wins over Arkansas to advance to the CWS Championship Finals versus Texas. Trailing 6-4 in the ninth inning of Game 1, the Tigers staged a dramatic two-run rally and eventually prevailed, 7-6, in 11 innings. The Longhorns posted a 5-1 win in Game 2; however, LSU overwhelmed UT, 11-4, in the deciding game to claim the NCAA championship trophy. Mainieri was named 2008 National Coach of the Year by Rivals. com aafter guiding the Tigers to the College World Series in just his second season at the helm of the program. The Tigers finished the season ranked sixth in the nation by Collegiate Baseball, Baseball America and ESPN/USA Today. LSU (49-19-1), picked to finish fifth in the SEC Western Division in the ‘08 preseason coaches’ poll, won 26 of its final 29 games, including a conference-record 23-game win streak that saw LSU claim the SEC Western Division title, the SEC Tournament championship and the NCAA Baton Rouge Regional championship. LSU’s 23-game surge ended with a loss to UC Irvine in Game 1 of the NCAA Baton Rouge Super Regional, but the Tigers won the next two games over the Anteaters to advance to the College World Series for the 14th time in school history and for the first time since 2004. LSU placed fifth in Omaha with a 1-2 record, marking the Tigers’ first Top 5 CWS finish since the 2000 squad claimed the national title. Mainieri, a Miami, Fla. native, has 998 career victories, as he directed the baseball programs at St. Thomas University (198388), Air Force (1989-94) and Notre Dame (1995-2006) prior to arrving at LSU in June 2006. Mainieri’s overall head coaching record is 998-553-6 (.643) in 27 collegiate seasons, and he has a 13462-2 (.682) mark in three seasons at LSU.
Skip Bertman is LSU’s all-time winningest coach, as he compiled an 870-330-3 (.724) record in 18 seasons (1984-2001). Bertman, the National Coach of the Year in 1986, 1991, 1993, 1996, 1997 and 2000, and the 1996 United States Olympic head coach, guided the Tigers to five national championships (1991, 1993, 1996, 1997, 2000) and 11 College World Series appearances (1986, ‘87, ‘89, ‘90, ‘91, ‘93, ‘94, ‘96, ‘97, ‘98, ‘00). Under Bertman, LSU finished in the Top 7 in the national polls in 12 of his final 16 seasons. Bertman was a member of the inaugural class of the College Baseball Hall of Fame that was inducted in July 2006. He is one of only three coaches to have won five College World Series titles. Southern Cal’s Dedeaux won 10 CWS crowns from 1958-78, and Augie Garrido has captured five championships with two schools (Cal State Fullerton, 1979, ‘84, ‘95; Texas, 2002, ‘05).

National Titles Under Bertman Skip Bertman directed LSU to its fifth national title in 2000, as the Tigers recorded a 52-17 mark, including a perfect 13-0 postseason record. LSU won the SEC Tournament with four straight wins, and the Tigers raced to a 9-0 mark in the NCAA Tournament. The Tigers captured the national title with a thrilling 6-5 win over Stanford in the CWS championship game, as LSU scored four runs in the last two innings to overcome a 5-2 deficit. Catcher Brad Cresse’s RBI single in the bottom of the ninth inning drove home shortstop Ryan Theriot with the winning run. The 2000 squad was Bertman’s most productive offensive team, setting a school record for team batting average with a .340 mark. The Tigers also established Southeastern Conference records for hits (864) and doubles (194). For the fifth time, Bertman was voted National Coach of the Year by Collegiate Baseball magazine. LSU claimed its fourth NCAA title in June, 1997, as the Tigers overwhelmed Alabama, 13-6, in the College World Series final. LSU became the first school to win back-to-back national championships since Stanford in 1987-88. The Tigers completed the year with a 57-13 mark, setting the Southeastern Conference record for most single-season victories. The Tigers also established the NCAA record for single-season home runs, as LSU unloaded a remarkable 188 round-trippers en route to the national championship. LSU joined Southern California (six titles in the 1970s) as the only schools to win four CWS crowns in one decade. LSU claimed its third national championship of the 1990s in 1996 when second baseman Warren Morris belted a two-run homer in the bottom of the ninth inning to lift the Tigers to a thrilling 9-8 College World Series title game win over Miami (Fla.). The ‘96 Tigers were one of the most prolific offensive teams in Southeastern Conference history, establishing league records for home runs (131), runs scored (648), RBI (549) and total bases (1,331).

LSU made its first CWS appearance in 1986, when the Tigers finished fifth with a 1-2 record. LSU lost its CWS debut, 4-3, to Loyola-Marymount before rebounding with its first Series win, an 8-4 triumph over Maine. The Tigers were then eliminated by defending CWS champion Miami (Fla.), 4-3. LSU returned to Omaha in 1987, marking the first time a Southeastern Conference team made back-to-back CWS appearances. The Tigers placed fourth in ‘87 with a 2-2 mark, as LSU was eliminated when Stanford’s Paul Carey sent a Ben McDonald pitch over the left-field wall with the bases loaded in the 10th inning to give the Cardinal a 6-5 win. In 1989, after an incredible two-game sweep of top-ranked Texas A&M -- the Aggies entered the regional final round with a 58-5 record -- in the NCAA Central Regional at College Station, Texas, LSU joined the CWS field, placing in a tie for third with a 2-2 record. In 1990, the Tigers again emerged from an NCAA regional tournament losers’ bracket to earn a CWS berth, as LSU captured the South I Regional at Baton Rouge with two scintillating one-run wins over Southern California. LSU finished in a tie for third at the ‘90 CWS, recording a 2-2 mark in the summer classic. LSU claimed its first NCAA championship in 1991 as the Tigers decimated the CWS field, outscoring their opponents 48-15 in four games. LSU, which won the SEC regular-season title for the second straight year, became the first team since 1982 to win the national championship without a loss in the NCAA Tournament -- the Tigers won four consecutive games in both the NCAA South Regional and the College World Series. LSU’s domination in Omaha was evidenced by the fact that the Tigers set CWS team records for most runs per game (12), highest fielding percentage (.993), highest slugging percentage (.603) and most home runs (nine). LSU returned to Omaha in 1993 for another national championship crusade as the Tigers posted a 4-1 CWS mark, including an 8-0 victory over Wichita State in the final. Perhaps more memorable than the championship contest was LSU’s 6-5 victory over Long Beach State in the CWS semi-finals, as the Tigers scored three runs in the bottom of the ninth inning for the win. LSU, which won the SEC for an unprecedented fourth straight year, advanced to the CWS by capturing the NCAA South Regional championship at Alex Box Stadium, which played host to a regional tournament for the fourth consecutive year. In 1994, LSU became the first defending national champion to return to the CWS since Stanford accomplished the feat in 1988. The Tigers earned the CWS berth with four straight wins in the NCAA South Regional at Baton Rouge, including a thrilling 12-10 triumph over Southern California in the regional final. However, for the first time in its CWS history, LSU went “two-and-out” in Omaha, as the Tigers dropped consecutive decisions to Florida State and Cal State-Fullerton. In 1996, the Tigers posted an 8-0 NCAA Tournament record to win the school’s third national championship. LSU won four

LSU has established an outstanding international reputation with representatives on U.S. Olympic squads:
summers (1995 and ‘96), Bertman guided the U.S. to an incredible 71-11 record (.866 winning percentage), culminating his tenure with a victory over Nicaragua for the 1996 Olympic bronze medal. In 1995, Bertman led the United States to an unprecedented four-game sweep of Cuba, the reigning World and Olympic champion, and the squad ended its summer tour on a 21-game win streak, the longest in the history of USA Baseball. The ‘96 U.S. team added to the streak by winning its first 18 games before dropping a 5-1 decision to Cuba on June 29. In the fall of ‘96, USA Baseball presented Bertman with its annual Achievement Award, which is given to an individual who has participated in amateur baseball and has gone on to excel in his professional endeavors. LSU second baseman Warren Morris and shortstop Jason Williams were two of the ‘96 Olympic team’s brightest stars as the starting middle infielders. Morris was the Americans’ leading hitter
in the Olympics, batting .409 in nine games with five homers, one double, 11 RBI and 10 runs. Williams batted .367 in the Olympics with three homers, nine RBI and 10 runs. Bertman also served as the pitching coach of the 1988 U.S. Olympic team which captured a gold medal in Seoul. The ‘88 squad featured LSU pitcher Ben McDonald, who posted two Olympic victories. LSU pitcher Rick Greene was a member of the ‘92 Olympic team which competed in Barcelona, but fell short of earning a medal. LSU pitcher Kurt Ainsworth helped lead the U.S. to the gold medal at the 2000 Olympics in Sydney. Ainsworth pitched the Americans to wins over Holland and Australia en route to the Olympic title. Most recently, LSU catcher Micah Gibbs was the starting catcher for the 2008 United States National Team that won a gold medal at World Championships in the Czech Republic. Gibbs hit .264 (19for-72) for the U.S. with three doubles, two homers and 17 RBI in 23 games.
Attendance LSU led the nation in total attendance for the 14th straight year in 2009, as the Tigers drew an NCAA-record 403,056 fans in the inaugural season of the New Alex Box Stadium. Nearly five million fans have seen LSU baseball over the past 26 seasons. A total of 4,953,664 patrons have experienced “Baseball at the Box” during that period. LSU also helped to establish an NCAA single-game attendance mark, as the Tigers and Tulane played before an actual crowd of 25,101 (27,673 paid) on April 10, 2002, in the Louisiana Superdome. LSU won that contest, 9-5. The LSU-Tulane mark was surpassed in 2004, when San Diego State and Houston played before over 40,000 fans to christen Petco Park in San Diego. Innovative promotional schemes, record-breaking crowds and increasing revenues characterize LSU’s baseball program. In 1983, the year before Skip Bertman’s arrival as head coach, LSU drew only 10,002 fans for 22 dates at Alex Box Stadium, an average of 454 per game.

Academic Excellence The coaching staff’s influence on LSU Baseball goes beyond the Tigers’ achievements on the playing field. The primary ingredient in the Tigers’ winning formula is a commitment to the education and emotional development of the players. The scholastic progress of the players is closely monitored by both the coaching staff and by the counselors in LSU’s Academic Center for Athletes. LSU’s steadfast emphasis on academics has produced

exceptional results. Student-athletes who leave the university early to play professional baseball often return at a later time to earn their degrees. For example, pitcher Clay Parker, who completed his athletic eligibility in 1984, received his LSU degree in 1995 after enjoying a lengthy major league career. Former MLB second baseman Todd Walker, who signed a pro contract in 1994, received a business degree from LSU in the fall of 1998. Former LSU first baseman Eddy Furniss was named a 1997 first-team Academic all-American by GTE-CoSIDA, and he received second-team Academic all-America recognition in 1996 and 1998. Other Academic all-America selections include pitcher Chris Demouy (third-team, 1996), second baseman Warren Morris (first-team, 1995) and catcher Tim Lanier (third-team, 1994). Third baseman Wally Pontiff was a member of the 2002 GTE/ CoSIDA District VI Academic all-America team, and pitcher Kurt Ainsworth earned District VI recognition in 1999. Left-handed pitcher Jason Determann was named the 2005 SEC Baseball Scholar-Athlete of the Year with a 3.781 GPA in biology. He was also voted to the ESPN The Magazine second-

ALEX BOX STADIUM
The original Alex Box Stadium, home of the LSU Fighting Tigers from 1938-2008, has a storied history which spans several decades. The 2008 season was the last for the Tigers in the 70-year-old facility, as LSU moved into the New Alex Box Stadium in 2009.
Alex Box Stadium Testimonials “We tried to prepare our players for coming here, but I don’t think you can prepare anybody for this, until you get here. This - and I mean this in a complimentary way - is a very, very special place; a very unique place ... There are lots of places where there’s great baseball played and there’s great support and they get behind their teams. But there is nothing like this. This is in first place and everything else is a distant second place.” -UC Irvine coach Mike Gillespie after the 2008 NCAA Super Regional in Alex Box Stadium
“I want to commend what I truly believe may be the premiere crowd in all of college baseball . . . that is a special, special crowd out there. I want to say that the way the fans have responded all weekend to just excellence and outstanding play leads me to believe that they truly do appreciate the difficulty of playing this game. I’m glad to have our players play in front of a crowd that I truly believe appreciated their performance.”
LSU has finished first in the nation in total attendance for 14 straight seasons. In 2009, the Tigers drew an NCAA-record 403,056 fans in the inaugural season of the New Alex Box Stadium. LSU has been among the nation’s attendance leaders for the past 19 seasons, finishing No. 5 in 1991, No. 6 in 1992, No. 4 in 1993, No. 3 in 1994 and 1995, and No. 1 from 1996-2009. Over the past 26 seasons, the Tigers have attracted nearly five million fans to their home stadium. A total of 4,953,684 patrons have watched the Tigers play at “The Box” from 1984 to 2009. The original Alex Box Stadium was recognized both for its old-fashioned charm and for its modern renovations. Beginning in 1985, it was the site of four SEC tournaments, 18 NCAA regional tournaments, four NCAA super regional series and one ABCA Hall of Fame tournament. Originally a 2,500-seat facility, the concrete and steel grandstand of the original Alex Box Stadium was completed in 1938. Funding came from the Works Progress Administration, a federally sponsored agency which constructed public athletic facilities, among other such projects. In its first two years, Alex Box Stadium was the site of spring training for the New York Giants. Such legendary baseball figures as Mel Ott, Carl Hubbell, Bill Terry and Dick Bartell trained at “The Box.”

LSU’s baseball stadium was named in 1943 for Alex Box, an outfielder for the 1942 Tiger squad. Box was killed in 1943 while fighting in North Africa during World War II. Simeon Alexander Box was born August 5, 1920, in Quitman, Miss., and attended George S. Gardiner High School in Laurel, Miss. Box came to LSU in 1938 and majored in petroleum engineering. He played football and baseball, served as vice president of the junior class in engineering and was a member of several professional societies. He earned his petroleum engineering degree in 1942. Box pursued his advanced ROTC studies in the engineering regiment. A handsome, popular figure on campus, he met and developed a close relationship with Earle Hubert, an attractive member of Delta Zeta sorority from Plaquemine, La. They had an understanding that she would complete her elementary education degree while he was serving in the military; then, they would later marry. Tragically, the terrors of warfare changed those plans. After being commissioned in the U.S. Army, Box made short stops at camps in Florida and Pennsylvania and went on to England in August, 1942. He was posted to the First Infantry Division, called the “Big Red One” in North Africa. Lieutenant Box, a tank commander, displayed his heroism on November 9, 1942, when he risked his life in helping destroy six enemy machine gun nests and an artillery emplacement near Arcole, Algeria. His brave acts earned him the Distinguished Service Cross, the Army’s second-highest decoration. Only two months later, there was a fierce battle in Tunisia, and Box’s tank was shredded by a German mine. He was killed instantly on February 19, 1943, at the age of 22. Brigadier General Theodore Roosevelt, wrote a letter of condolence to Box’s mother, Mattie, saying “the deeds and death of your son have gone to make up the spiritual background that is this country.” Laurel, Miss., superintendent of schools R.H. Watkins eulogized Box as a “perfect example of an athlete, a Christian gentleman, a scholar and a soldier . . . His beautiful life may be compared to a great piece of music which ends on a high note.” On the LSU campus, there was a spontaneous movement that spring to commemorate his sacrifice in some tangible way. At its May 28, 1943 meeting, the LSU Board of Supervisors voted unanimously to named the baseball stadium for Box. That was considered such an unusual decision that the student newspaper, The Reveille, observed, “For the first time in the school’s history, the service and memory of the military hero came to be esteemed so highly that a structure on the campus was named in his honor.” The Box family made a special presentation of Alex’s personal memorabilia to LSU during the 1991 baseball season. The memorabilia, enclosed in a specially-constructed glass case, is permanently housed in the LSU Athletics Hall of Fame and Museum.

ALEX BOX STADIUM
GREAT MOMENTS
LSU Diamond – later named Alex Box Stadium – was the spring training home of the New York Giants in 1938 and 1939. Reprinted with permission from Baseball in Baton Rouge. Available from the publisher online at www.arcadiapublishing.com or by calling 888-313-2665.
Slugger Eddy Furniss powered LSU to NCAA Regional titles in 1996, 1997 and 1998.
May 6, 1939 LSU defeats Tulane, 16-0, clinching its first SEC crown with a 10-2 conference record. The Tigers receive help from the Auburn Plainsmen, who defeated Florida, giving the Gators their second loss of the season, and eliminating them from title contention.
March 14, 1979 Robert Landry pitches only the fourth no-hitter in LSU’s history, defeating Southern Miss 1-0 at Alex Box Stadium. Landry strikes out seven and walks three in the seven-inning contest. Randy Olson, the Tigers’ designated hitter, hits a solo home run for the lone score of the game.
May 23, 1998 LSU falls behind Cal State Fullerton, 7-0 through two innings, but Cedrick Harris’ two-run double in the eighth caps a four-run inning to complete a comeback as the Tigers earn a 13-11 victory. LSU routs the Titans 14-3 the next day to reach Omaha.
May 6, 1946 LSU completes a doubleheader sweep of Tulane to finish 11-3 in SEC play and win the league title. In the first outing, home runs by Joe Bill Adcock and Gene “Red” Knight help to erase a 4-1 deficit. Mel Didier singles in two runs in the seventh and LSU captures a 7-4 victory. In Game 2, home runs by Knight and Ray Coates highlight LSU’s 4-3 win, as the Tigers clinch the SEC title.
May 25, 1986 Albert Belle smashes two, two-run homers in the South I Regional championship game, leading the Tigers to their first College World Series with a 7-6 win over Tulane at Alex Box Stadium. Belle was named tournament MVP for his efforts.
May 30-31, 1999 Facing a seven-run deficit and in danger of being eliminated, LSU rallies to take a 12-10 lead it would not relinquish against East Carolina to force a second championship game. Kurt Ainsworth gets an extra day of rest thanks to rain, which forces the second contest to be moved to Monday. Ainsworth blanks the Pirates, 9-0, hurling the Tigers to a super regional matchup with SEC foe Alabama.
May 12, 1961 LSU defeats Auburn 6-5 in the second game of a bestof-three series to win the SEC Championship. LSU trails 5-4 in the bottom of the 11th inning when the Tigers rally for two runs. Bobby Theriot provides the game-winning single and LSU captures the league crown. The paid attendance for the game was estimated to be around 2,500, making it the most attended LSU baseball game at the time. May 5, 1967 LSU right-hander Bruce Baudier fires a seven-inning perfect game, blanking Alabama, 2-0, in the second game of a doubleheader. Baudier records eight strikeouts and needs only 72 pitches to defeat the Crimson Tide in front of 450 fans in Alex Box Stadium. March 3, 1972 On Opening Day, LSU pitcher Randy Wiles pitches a no-hitter in the first game of a doubleheader against Rice, leading the Tigers to a 3-0 victory. Wiles pitches seven innings, recording 11 strikeouts and one walk. The no-hitter is nearly broken up with an infield hit, but is kept alive with an outstanding play by freshman shortstop Mike Miley. May 14, 1975 LSU defeats Georgia 6-5 in the first game of a bestof-three series to determine the SEC champion. Randy Aldridge singles in the winning run in the bottom of the 10th. Paul Stefan earns the victory, pitching 8.2 innings of relief and striking out 13. LSU goes on to win the series and the SEC title with a 8-3 win over the Bulldogs in Athens.

Albert Belle and the 1986 Tigers captured an NCAA Regional title and advanced to LSU’s first College World Series.
May 28, 1990 Rich Cordani’s dramatic two-run blast in the seventh inning lifts LSU to a thrilling 7-6 South Regional championship game win over Southern California. April 26, 1993 LSU defeats Tulane, 5-2, in a “Turn Back the Clock” game in Alex Box Stadium. The players wear early 20th-century replica uniforms and use wooden bats in the contest. The game celebrates the 100th anniversary of the LSU Baseball program. May 29, 1994 LSU holds on to a 12-10 win over Southern Cal in the South Regional final. Former Trojan and current Minnesota Twins star Jacque Jones smashes three homers in defeat. May 26, 1996 In one of the largest hit outputs in school history, LSU uses 18 runs on 13 hits in the seventh inning of the South II Regional championship game to rout Georgia Tech, 29-13. The Tigers wear new gold jerseys during the regional and throughout the 1996 College World Series. May 25, 1997 A classic five-hour marathon comes to an end as LSU outlasts Long Beach State by scoring seven runs in the 11th inning for a 14-7 victory. One day later, the Tigers avenge their second round loss to South Alabama by sweeping the Jaguars, 14-4 and 15-4, before defending their national championship in Omaha.

Skip Bertman opens the “spirit ball” prior to the first game in the New Alex Box Stadium. June 2, 2002 LSU comes through the loser’s bracket to defeat UL-Lafayette twice by identical 12-2 scores to win its seventh consecutive regional championship. The Tigers are the only regional winner of 2002 to come through the loser’s bracket to win twice on the final day. June 1, 2003 Jon Zeringue’s one-out, walk-off home run in the bottom of the 11th sends LSU to the super regional round as the Tigers defeat a pesky UNC-Wilmington club, 9-8. Despite defeat, UNC-W becomes the first opposing team to make a congratulatory lap around the field following the game. June 7-8, 2003 LSU blasts Baylor 20-5, using an 11-run sixth inning highlighted by Clay Harris’ grand slam to reach its 12th College World Series. The Tigers faced elimination a day earlier after Baylor captured the first contest in the bestof-three set. Harris and Ivan Naccarata belted back-toback homers to lead off the eighth inning to lift LSU over Baylor, 6-5, to set up the rubber match. June 13, 2004 Lane Mestepey fires a masterful five-hit shutout in Game 2 of a Super Regional series against Texas A&M. Will Harris’ ninth-inning homer clinches LSU’s 4-0 triumph and sends the Tigers to the College World Series for the second straight season.
June 8-9, 2008 LSU completes its 70-year residency in Alex Box Stadium in grand fashion, overwhelming UC Irvine, 21-7, in Game 3 of the NCAA Baton Rouge Super Regional. The win vaults the Tigers into the College World Series for the 14th time since 1986. LSU explodes for six runs in the first inning on the strength of consecutive home runs by Blake Dean, Micah Gibbs and Matt Clark to roll past the Anteaters. The Tigers had faced elimination in Game 2 the day before, but LSU erupted for five runs in the ninth inning to erase a 7-4 deficit and post a 9-7 victory, setting up the Game 3 final showdown. February 20, 2009 LSU defeats Villanova, 12-3, in the first game played in the New Alex Box Stadium. Over 9,000 fans witness the inaugural contest played in the state-of-the-art ball park. Louis Coleman, who fires the first pitch in stadium history, earns the victory with a strong outing against the Wildcats. June 6, 2009 LSU defeats Rice, 5-3, to win the NCAA Super Regional and advance to the College World Series in the first season of the New Alex Box Stadium. A crowd of 9,651 fans watches as Louis Coleman and Matty Ott pitch the Tigers to victory. Coleman earns his 13th win and Ott picks up his 16th save as the Tigers head to Omaha for the 15th time in school annals.

It represents the University as a memorial to those who gave their lives during World War I. Although it currently houses the LSU Anglo-American Art Museum, plans are in process to return Memorial Tower to a military museum as originally intended. The University lakes (above, right) on the LSU campus give various recreational options.

Louisiana State University and Agricultural & Mechanical College has, throughout its 150year history, served the people of Louisiana, the region, the nation, and the world. LSU is creating a revolution, one of pervasive change and advancement. For the past five years, the focus of the LSU community has been an increased commitment to excellence. Our progress has been dramatic and shows no sign of stopping. Having witnessed many of yesterday’s possibilities become today’s tangible realities, the LSU community set forth to capitalize on its success. The goal was to improve our standing as a nationally competitive flagship university. Following intense discussions among the LSU Board of Supervisors, campus administrators, faculty, and student leaders, the objectives required to reach this status crystallized, providing the impetus for LSU’s National Flagship Agenda.

“How could you put a price tag on the experience I had at LSU? You couldn’t pay me enough money to take away the College World Series championship or the things I learned from (former LSU head coach) Skip Bertman to the relationships I have with guys like (former LSU teammates) Victor Brumfield and Blair Barbier. You meet all these guys and you have lifelong friends. I could go on and on about guys I still keep in close contact with.”

“When you go back and get your degree, it says a lot about your work ethic. I accomplished things that I will never forget here. I come home to Miami, but a lot of people don’t know me like everyone in Baton Rouge and the fans. Baton Rouge and LSU has been my home. If I had to do it all over again, LSU would be the only place I would do it.”
“Throughout the entire recruiting process I always knew LSU was the best choice. Being from the great state of Louisiana, LSU was a home away from home. I knew that this would be a place I could grow as a student-athlete and a young man. The coaches, faculty, and the 92,000 marvelous fans only help to make the decision much easier. Looking back on it, I couldn’t have asked for more from the experience.”
“As far back as I can remember (riding bicycles, playing little league baseball), I have literally bled purple and gold. It never crossed my mind that there was anywhere else to go other than LSU. The experiences and relationships that I developed at LSU have been an integral part of my life. No other colleges existed in my mind. I am fortunate to have attended a place that I considered a dream and look forward to my association with the University until the day I die.”

Along with the success of the LSU baseball team comes a great deal of media attention and Dr. Tommy Karam, the Director of the Communications Lab, works with LSU student-athletes on their interactions with the media and interview skills. Karam utilizes a mock press conference setting to get the student-athletes used to handling themselves in front of both print and electronic media. He video tapes the mock interview session and reviews it with the student-athletes to help them become more comfortable in an interview setting. Karam also helps the LSU student-athletes get prepared for the MLB experience by working closely with those players on the interview process.

Academic SUCCESS Critical to the development of a student-athlete is an adequate academic facility and capable staff to further the athlete’s progress. The Cox Communications Academic Center for Student-Athletes is responsible for overseeing the educational development and progress toward graduation for all student-athletes. The staff acts as a liaison between the student-athlete and the academic communities and insures that studentathletes comply with academic rules established by the University, NCAA and Southeastern Conference. The staff also coordinates academic programs designed to assist student-athletes in acquiring a quality education.

The LSU baseball program has undergone a reclamation project since Paul Mainieri was hired in June 2006. Besides returning the program that won five College World Series between 1991 and 2000 to national prominence on the field, the program recorded a perfect 1,000 Academic Progress Rate for the 2007-08 academic year. “Having gone into this profession to be an educator and teacher, it is of course important for youngsters to fulfill their potential as baseball players, but it is even more important for them to earn their degrees and become contributing people in society once they finish their playing careers,” Mainieri said. LSU baseball student-athletes posted a cumulative 2.89 grade-point average in the spring of 2008, the highest in-season mark in program history. For the entire 2007-08 academic year, the team posted a 2.83, another highwater mark for the program. Fourteen LSU baseball players - again the most in program history - were named to the 2008 Southeastern Conference Academic Honor Roll. “I realize those numbers are modest by some people’s standards, but it is a start,” said Mainieri. “I feel proud. I’m hoping this will be the start of a trend, and not only will we succeed on the field, but the kids will go on to be productive citizens.”

One of the true legends of college football in the South, Cannon was the 1959 Heisman Trophy winner and helped the Tigers to the 1958 national title. Cannon’s most memorable performance came in 1959 against Ole Miss when No. 1 LSU trailed No. 3 Ole Miss 3-0 in the fourth quarter. He fielded a punt, broke seven tackles and returned it 89 yards for the 7-3 victory. He went on to a successful 11-year professional career.

About LSU Retired Jerseys The retirement of the jerseys of Casanova, McDonald and Macklin comes under a new provision of the LSU jersey retirement bylaws that says the retirement of an athlete’s jersey in a particular sport does not preclude a current student-athlete in that sport from wearing the jersey number in that or any other sport, subject to the discretion of the head coach. This provision applies only to jerseys retired after January 1, 2007, so the numbers worn by Maravich, Pettit, O’Neal, Cannon and Bertman may never again be worn by future student-athletes in their respective sports. To have a jersey retired at LSU, an athlete must have completed intercollegiate competition for LSU a minimum of five years prior to nomination. Athletes must have demonstrated truly unusual and outstanding accomplishments, exceeding and in addition to all criteria used for Hall of Fame selection. Nominees must have a unanimous vote of support from the Hall of Fame committee.

Preview tigers coaches Review History records lsu
Four of the finest men to wear an LSU baseball uniform - third baseman Wally Pontiff, pitcher Robbie Smith, pitcher Ben McDonald and head coach Skip Bertman - were recognized on LSU’s Wall of Honor, the center field wall of the original Alex Box Stadium. Their jersey numbers were painted on the wall as tributes to individuals who brought esteem to the university through their exploits on the field and through their accomplishments as vital citizens. Pontiff and Smith were honored posthumously.
Ben McDonald, the 1989 Golden Spikes Award winner, still holds the LSU career strikeout mark with 373.
19 Ben McDonald
McDonald, a 6-7 right-hander from Denham Springs, La., capped a magnificent 1989 season by receiving the Golden Spikes Award, given by the United States Baseball Federation to the nation’s most outstanding amateur player. McDonald, who was also named National Player of the Year by Baseball America, The Sporting News and Collegiate Baseball, was the first player chosen in the free-agent amateur draft and made his major league debut with the Baltimore Orioles in September, 1989. McDonald, who set an LSU career mark with 373 Ks, established Southeastern Conference standards for single-season strikeouts (202), innings pitched (152.1) and consecutive scoreless innings (44.2). A two-time All-American and a 1988 Olympic gold medalist, he finished his LSU career with a 29-14 record and a 3.24 ERA. McDonald, who enjoyed an excellent 10-year major league career with the Orioles and Milwaukee Brewers, also lettered as an LSU basketball player. He was a member of the 1986-87 Tiger hoops squad which advanced to the Elite Eight of the NCAA Tournament. McDonald has volunteered his time to several philanthropic endeavors, including Special Olympics, Sojourner Truth House (prevention of domestic violence) and Child Abuse Prevention. He has also made significant financial contributions during his professional career to the LSU Scholarship Fund. McDonald was inducted into the College Baseball Hall of Fame in July 2008.

Robbie Smith served as team captain of the 1985 LSU squad that won the SEC Western Division title.
19 Robbie Smith
Smith, a trooper for the Florida Highway Patrol, was killed in Miami in July 1997, when a man slammed his car into the back of Smith’s parked police cruiser. The 34-yearold Smith, was trapped inside his car, which exploded on impact on Interstate 95. Smith, a four-year veteran of the Florida Highway Patrol, had served with the TriCounty DUI Task Force for the 18 months prior to his death. The federally funded program allows nine state troopers from Dade, Broward and Palm Beach counties to stop drunk drivers and bring them to jail. For four years, Smith had been a member of the “One Hundred Club,” a group of troopers recognized by the Florida Highway Patrol and Mothers Against Drunk Driving for having arrested more than 100 drunk drivers annually. Smith came to the LSU baseball program in the fall of 1983 as a transfer from Miami Dade South Junior College. He pitched for head coach Skip Bertman’s first two LSU teams in 1984 and 1985, serving as the ‘85 team captain.

As a freshman, Pontiff helped lead the Tigers to the 2000 national title, batting .347 with 20 doubles, seven homers and 45 RBI. He was voted the Most Outstanding Player of the 2000 SEC Tournament, and he was named an honorable mention Freshman allAmerican by Collegiate Baseball magazine.

He also skippered the United States to a bronze medal at the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta and was an assistant on the gold medal-winning U.S. squad in Seoul, Korea in 1988. Bertman retired from coaching following the 2001 season and served as the LSU athletic director through June 2008.

LSU’s profound success in Olympic competition began in 1988, when head coach Skip Bertman and right-hander Ben McDonald helped lead the United States to the gold medal in Seoul, South Korea. Bertman served as the pitching coach of the 1988 U.S. squad, and McDonald pitched the Americans to complete-game victories over Korea and Puerto Rico. In the two wins, McDonald allowed just two earned runs in 18 innings, recording 17 strikeouts and four walks. Reliever Rick Greene, LSU’s all-time saves leader (29), continued the Tigers’ Olympic tradition by pitching for the 1992 U.S. squad which competed in Barcelona, Spain. The ‘92 team, however, failed to advance to the medal round. Skip Bertman served as head coach of the 1996 United States Olympic team, guiding the Americans to the bronze medal in Atlanta. LSU standouts Warren Morris (second base) and Jason Williams (shortstop) were the starting middle infielders for Team USA, which defeated Nicaragua for the bronze medal in Atlanta’s Fulton County Stadium.
Morris and Williams each enjoyed a spectacular summer of 1996 which culminated in the bronzemedal triumph. Morris was Team USA’s leading hitter at the Olympics, batting .409 (9-for 22) in nine games with one double, five homers, 11 RBI and 10 runs. Williams hit .367 (11-for-30) with three homers, nine RBI and 10 runs. Team USA’s ‘96 pre-Olympic tour was highlighted by a stop at LSU’s Alex Box Stadium on June 20. The game served as a homecoming for Bertman, Morris and Williams, as the Americans defeated Australia, 11-6, before a standing-room only crowd of 6,926. LSU right-hander Kurt Ainsworth pitched the U.S. to two wins at the 2000 Olympics in Sydney, Australia, en route to the gold medal. Ainsworth defeated Holland and Australia with a pair of dominating performances. In the victories, Ainsworth worked a total of 11.2 innings, allowing just two earned runs on 10 hits with three walks and 10 strikeouts.

2010 OUTLOOK Fourth-year coach Paul Mainieri, who directed the Tigers to the 2009 NCAA championship, believes his 2010 club has the necessary elements to earn a third consecutive berth for LSU in the College World Series. “I have all the confidence in the world that we’ve got the pieces in place to be able to have another outstanding club,” said Mainieri, the 2008 and 2009 National Coach of the Year. “I’m very confident that we will have an excellent pitching staff and an outstanding starting nine. The only area of concern right now may be our depth, but I feel like we have players who will continue to develop and fill important roles on the club.” LSU welcomes back 15 players that made significant contributions to the 2009 national championship drive, including seven position players with starting experience and eight pitchers that recorded innings last season. Senior all-America first baseman Blake Dean leads a core of veterans that includes junior outfielder Leon Landry, junior catcher Micah Gibbs, sophomore outfielder Mikie Mahtook, sophomore infielder Tyler Hanover, sophomore shortstop Austin Nola and sophomore infielder Grant Dozar. Two players that had part-time starting roles during the 2008 season – senior infielder
Matt Gaudet and sophomore outfielder Johnny Dishon. – are back on the Tigers’ active roster in 2010. The pitching staff is led by junior allAmerica right-hander Anthony Ranaudo, who finished third in the nation last season with 159 strikeouts and was the winning pitcher in the deciding game of the CWS Finals. Also returning is sophomore right-hander Matty Ott, the 2009 SEC Co-Freshman of the Year who established the LSU single-season record for saves last season with 16. Ranaudo and Ott are joined by a talented group of hurlers that includes senior righthander Paul Bertuccini, junior right-handers Austin Ross, Daniel Bradshaw and Ben Alsup, sophomore left-hander Chris Matulis and sophomore right-hander Shane Riedie. The LSU veterans are complemented by a talented class of 13 newcomers, including five players that have been selected in the Major League Draft. “I think we had a very productive fall practice session, and we learned a lot about
our team,” Mainieri said. “I was very pleased with the way our players competed in the fall scrimmages -- there was a lot of energy and enthusiasm in the dugout. “We have an excellent starting lineup that can compete with anybody, and I feel our pitching staff will be the strength of our team. We actually have a deeper staff than we had last year. It’s important that we stay healthy throughout the year, but we feel like we’re on target for another successful season.”

The Tigers’ returning starters are led by senior first baseman Blake Dean, who elected to return to LSU for his final season after being selected in the 10th round of the MLB Draft by the Minnesota Twins. Dean, a native of Crestview, Fla., moves to first base this season after playing as an outfielder/DH during his first three years at LSU. The 2008 first-team AllAmerican earned first-team All-SEC honors in 2009, batting .328 (85-for-259) with 18 doubles, 17 homers and 71 RBI. Dean, a 2010 preseason All-America selection, is No. 8 on the all‐time LSU home run list with 44 dingers and No. 6 on the LSU career RBI list with 190. Sophomore Tyler Hanover, who started 53 games last season at third base, moves to second base in 2010. Hanover, a product of Kernersville, N.C., excelled at the plate as a true freshman, batting .321 (67-for-209) with nine doubles, two triples, five homers, 47 RBI and 40 runs. Sophomore Austin Nola is back after earning the starting shortstop role 40 games into the 2009 season. The Baton Rouge native provided the Tigers with outstanding defense, and he hit .240 (29-for-121) on the year with four doubles, one triple, three homers, 18 RBI and 27 runs. Nola delivered several clutch hits in the 2009 postseason, including the game-winning single in the Tigers’ 10-inning NCAA Regional victory over Baylor. Nola was rated the No. 8 prospect last summer in the Illinois-based Prospect League by Baseball America. Redshirt freshman Wet Delatte of Prairieville, La., enjoyed an excellent fall practice session to earn the starting job at third base entering the 2010 season. Junior Leon Landry and sophomore Mikie Mahtook give the Tigers a veteran, athletic presence in the outfield. Landry, a

Landry hit .300 (51-for-170) for the Tigers last season with 10 doubles, 12 homers, 41 RBI, 38 runs and nine steals. Mahtook, the MVP of the 2009 SEC Tournament, was Baseball America’s No. 1 prospect in the Prospect League over the summer. The Lafayette, La. native batted .316 (62-for-196) last season for LSU with eight doubles, three triples, seven homers, 38 RBI, 41 runs and nine steals. Landry and Mahtook will be joined in the outfield by sophomore Trey Watkins, a transfer from LSU-Eunice. The product of Montz, La. will give the Tigers excellent range in the outfield and a spark at the top of the lineup. Sophomore Johnny Dishon, redshirted in 2009 after playing in 41 games in 2008, will also make an impact in the outfield. The Beaumont, Texas native was rated the No. 2 prospect by Baseball America last summer in the Valley League of Virginia. Junior catcher Micah Gibbs, a member of the 2009 ABCA Gold Glove team, gives the Tigers an outstanding presence behind the plate. Gibbs, a 2010 preseason AllAmerican, batted .294 (70-for-238) last season with 16 doubles, two triples, six homers, 42 RBI and 58 runs, and he threw out 22 baserunners attempting to steal. The Pflugerville, Texas native was the starting catcher in the summer of 2008 for the United States National Team that captured the gold medal at the World Championships in the Czech Republic. Sophomore Grant Dozar is an extremely versatile performer who could see action at catcher, first base, second base and DH. Senior Matt Gaudet, who appeared in 21 games in 2008 before being sidelined

Pitchers The experienced staff is led by a pair of preseason All-Americans -- junior right-hander Anthony Ranaudo and sophomore right-hander Matty Ott. Ranaudo, selected as the 2010 preseason National Player of the Year by Collegiate Baseball newspaper, was the Tigers’ No. 1 starter throughout the 2009 season, recording a 12-3 mark and a 3.04 ERA in 19 starts (124.1

innings) with 50 walks and 159 strikeouts. The native of Jackson, N.J. finished No. 3 in the nation in strikeouts and No. 5 in wins. Ranaudo, a 2009 third-team AllAmerica and second-team All-SEC selection, became the first LSU pitcher to lead the SEC in strikeouts since Kurt Ainsworth (157 Ks) in 1999. He was the winning pitcher in the deciding game of the College World Series Finals versus Texas on June 24, working 5.1 innings while allowing four runs on eight hits with five walks and four strikeouts. Ott, a 2009 second-team All-American and the SEC Co-Freshman of the Year, established the LSU single-season saves record with 16, surpassing the previous mark of 14 set by Rick Greene in 1991. Ott, a sophomore right-hander from Chalmette, La., recorded a 4-2 mark and a 2.68 ERA in 37 appearances, collecting six walks and 69 strikeouts in 50.1 innings. He earned the relief win over Texas in Game 1 of CWS Finals on June 22, firing three shutout innings while allowing no hits with one walk and three strikeouts. The top candidates to join Ranaudo in LSU’s weekend starting rotation are junior right-handers Austin Ross and Daniel Bradshaw. Ross, a native of Shreveport, La., started 17 games last season, posting a 6-8 mark with a 5.18 ERA and 76 strikeouts in 83.1 innings. Ross was named SEC Pitcher of the Week on two occasions, including after a brilliant

eight-inning, two-hit outing against Ole Miss. Bradshaw, a product of West Monroe, La., was 4-0 in 25 appearances (four starts) last season with a 3.04 ERA and 33 strikeouts in 50.1 innings. He was named to the SEC AllTournament team after firing a seven-inning shutout against Georgia. Senior right-hander Paul Bertuccini, who has made 79 career appearances, will again be one of the Tigers’ top relievers. Bertuccini, a Metairie, La. native, was 2-0 last season with a 3.86 ERA in 25.2 innings (28 appearances) while recording three saves and 31 strikeouts. Junior right-hander Ben Alsup, a product of Ruston, La., also figures prominently in the Tigers’ pitching plans. Alsup made 20 appearances (three starts) in 2009, recording a 1-0 mark and 24 strikeouts in 29.1 innings. The Tigers will count upon sophomore left-hander Chris Matulis (6-2, 4.82 ERA, 46.2 IP, 39 SO), a native of Boynton Beach, Fla. who started seven games last season. Sophomore right-hander Shane Riedie also returns after earning a save in four relief appearances last season. A pair of transfers – sophomore righthander Joey Bourgeois (LSU-Eunice) and junior right-hander Mitch Mormann (Des Moines CC) – are hard-throwing hurlers that should make a strong impact on the mound. Four true freshmen – right-hander Michael Reed and left-handers Forrest Garrett, Jordan Rittiner and Zach LaSuzzo – should also contribute on the hill this season.

2010 SEC Tournament
May 26-30 • Regions Park • Hoover, Ala. The Southeastern Conference Baseball Tournament returns for a 13th straight year to Regions Park in the south Birmingham city of Hoover, Ala. Regions Park serves as home of the Double-A Birmingham Barons (Chicago White Sox) of the Southern League. The SEC Tournament will follow an eight-team double elimination tournament that is modeled after the College World Series. The tournament field includes the top teams from the SEC’s Eastern and Western Divisions plus six at-large bids based on conference winning percentage. The eight teams are seeded 1-8 with the two divisional champions guaranteed of the top two seeds. Last season, LSU defeated Vanderbilt in the championship game to claim its second straight SEC Tournament title. Located eight miles south of Birmingham, Regions Park is regarded by many sports experts as one of the best of its kind in the nation. It seats 10,800 for baseball, but can accommodate over 16,000 when the patio, banquet and side grassy areas are used. The stadium also houses 12 suites and state-of-the-art dressing and training rooms. Wireless internet access was added in 2004, concourse and signage renovation was done in 2005 and a second-level press box expansion, new stadium seating and an exterior facelift in 2007 completed a $4.5 million renovation project. A new video scoreboard was added for 2008. The 2009 SEC Baseball Tournament drew 86,048 fans. Five times in the last eight years the tournament has surpassed the six-digit mark in total attendance. The 2002 SEC Baseball Tournament total attendance of 124,440 is the largest total in tourney annals. LSU has played in the SEC Tournament title game in five of the past 10 seasons. The Tigers have won eight tournament titles (1986, ‘90, ‘92, ‘93, ‘94, 2000, 2008, 2009) and have finished as runners-up on six occasions (1987, ‘91, ‘95, ‘97, 2001, 2003).

Regional Tournaments: June 4-6/7(sites TBA) Super Regional Series: June 11-13/12-14 (sites TBA) College World Series: June 19-29/30 (Rosenblatt Stadium - Omaha, Neb.) The 2010 NCAA Tournament will feature a 64-team field for the 12th straight year, as the tournament was expanded from 48 to 64 participants in 1999. The teams selected for the tournament will be placed in 16 four-team NCAA Regional brackets at campus sites across the country June 4-7. The brackets are set up like the NCAA basketball tournament, with the top eight teams in the country earning “National Seeds.” The brackets will be used to determine Super Regional pairings as well as the two brackets for the College World Series. The 16 winners of the Regionals advance to the Super Regionals, where teams will be matched up for best-of-three series at eight sites June 11-13 and June 12-14. The eight winners of the Super Regionals advance to the College World Series June 19-30 at Omaha’s Rosenblatt Stadium, marking the 61st series that will take place in the venerable facility. The eight CWS teams compete in two four-team brackets. From 1988-2002, the bracket champions met in a single game to determine the national champion; however, the bracket champions now meet in a best two-of-three series to determine the national champion.

When Paul Mainieri was hired as LSU’s baseball coach in June 2006, he expressed a clear vision for the future of the Fighting Tiger program. “Make no mistake about it,” he said. “The goal is to return LSU to the pinnacle position in college baseball. I have all the confidence in the world that we can do that here.” Three years later, LSU does indeed occupy the pinnacle position in college baseball as the 2009 NCAA National Champions. Mainieri directed the ’09 Tigers to the College World Series title, posting a 56-17 overall record, including a 10-1 mark in NCAA Tournament competition. The Tigers defeated Texas in the CWS Championship Finals to win the national title, LSU’s sixth CWS championship and its first since 2000. Mainieri also guided his squad to the 2009 Southeastern Conference regular-season and tournament titles. The 2009 season was a magnificent year that began with LSU ranked No. 1 in the polls and ended with the Tigers still occupying college baseball’s summit. LSU won its first Southeastern Conference regular-season title since 2003, posting a 20-10 SEC mark. The Tigers then became the first league school since Alabama in 2002-03 to win

consecutive SEC Tournament titles. LSU played host to the NCAA Baton Rouge Regional, where the Tigers defeated Southern, Baylor and Minnesota to set up a Super Regional matchup versus Rice in Alex Box Stadium. LSU swept two games from the Owls, earning a berth to the CWS for the second straight season and for the 15th time in school history. The Tigers defeated Virginia in their CWS opener and recorded two wins over Arkansas to advance to the CWS Championship Finals versus Texas. Trailing 6-4 in the ninth inning of Game 1, the Tigers staged a dramatic two-run rally and eventually prevailed, 7-6, in 11 innings. The Longhorns posted a 5-1 win in Game 2; however, LSU overwhelmed UT, 11-4, in the deciding game to claim the NCAA championship trophy. LSU in 2009 led the nation in total attendance for the 14th straight season, as the Tigers performed in the New Alex Box Stadium. LSU drew an NCAA record 403,056 fans to the state-ofthe-art facility, an average of 9,596 per contest. Mainieri’s commitment to academic excellence was illustrated by the Tigers’ performance in the classroom as 11 LSU players received 2009 SEC Academic Honor Roll recognition.

Six LSU players were selected in the 2009 Major League Baseball Draft, including four in the first five rounds. Outfielder Jared Mitchell was the first-round choice of the Chicago White Sox, marking the first time LSU produced a first-round selection since 2003. Also among the drafted players was Louis Coleman, a 2009 First-Team all-American and the SEC Pitcher of the Year chosen in the fifth round by the Kansas City Royals. Mainieri first guided LSU back into prominence in 2008 as the Tigers advanced to the College World Series, earning a berth to Omaha for the first time since 2004. Mainieri, named 2008 National Coach of the Year by Rivals.com and by CollegeBaseballInsider.com, directed the Tigers to a 49-19-1 record. LSU, which was predicted to finish fifth in the SEC Western Division in the preseason league coaches’ poll, won 26 of its final 29 games during a remarkable late-season surge. Mainieri’s promise to LSU fans to attract the nation’s best players had been fulfilled during his staff’s first recruiting season, as Collegiate Baseball magazine rated the Tigers’ 2007 class No. 1 in the country. The recruiting class -- which included nine
players selected in the Major League Baseball Draft -- combined with LSU’s returning players to form an outstanding 2008 club. With four weeks remaining in the regular season, the ’08 LSU club was 23-16-1 overall and in 11th place in the overall SEC standings with a 6-11-1 record; however, the Tigers posted a conference-record 23-game win streak that saw LSU claim the SEC Western Division title, the SEC Tournament championship and the NCAA Baton Rouge Regional championship. LSU’s 23-game surge ended with a loss to UC Irvine in Game 1 of the NCAA Baton Rouge Super Regional, but the Tigers won the next two games over the Anteaters to advance to the College World Series for the 14th time in school history and for the first time since 2004. LSU placed fifth in Omaha with a 1-2 record, marking the Tigers’ first Top 5 CWS finish since
the 2000 squad claimed the national title. Mainieri’s emphasis on academic achievement produced outstanding results in the classroom. Fourteen LSU baseball players – the most in the program’s history – were named to the 2008 Southeastern Conference Academic Honor Roll. The previous high for the LSU squad was 12 players, established in 2004 and in 2005. Seven LSU players were selected in the 2008 Major League Baseball first-year player draft,
“He was trained his whole life to do this. His father was a great coach and his father raised him to be tough. I think he knew when he got to LSU that this (a national championship) was coming. He probably did it a lot sooner than most people thought.” - Jim Hendry, Chicago Cubs gM ON LSU COACH PAUL MAINIERI 2010 LSU baseball official yearbook

Mainieri’s Mentors Paul Mainieri grew up around the game of baseball on a daily basis and, as the son of a Hall of Fame coach, had the good fortune to be exposed to several outstanding coaches. Mainieri cites three primary influences in his development as a coach, headed by his father Demie Mainieri, who coached Miami-Dade North Community College to 1,018 wins and a national title in his 30-year career. “My father laid the foundation for identifying the correct reasons to enter into the coaching profession,” says Mainieri. “Despite his success that he may have encountered, my father emphasized to me that a coach was a teacher first and foremost. Watching how he made such a positive impact on young people’s lives was the greatest factor for me wanting to follow in his footsteps.” Mainieri spent his final two seasons as an infielder at the University of New Orleans, where he had the good fortune of playing for current UNO athletic director Ron Maestri. “Coach Maestri showed me how a high intensity level and work ethic can translate into success,” recalls Mainieri, whose 2002 squad opened at the Ron Maestri/UNO Classic. “He used to do the little things-like drag the field and go into the community to raise support - and his charisma resulted
in the construction of a beautiful ballpark for our team,” says Mainieri. “He pushed his team hard but would do anything for his players, and his players were very loyal to him. Coach Maestri also relayed to me the importance of recruiting the best athletes - meaning shortstops - and we had six or seven high school shortstops in our everyday lineup.” During his early days in coaching, Mainieri had the chance to meet former Los Angeles Dodgers manager Tommy Lasorda and has maintained a friendship with one of the game’s greatest ambassadors. “Tommy has advised me in so many areas, it’s hard to specify any areas of emphasis,” says Mainieri of Lasorda, the keynote speaker at the 2008 LSU First Pitch Banquet. “I think from him I really realized how important it is to bring joy to the ballpark every day. The players definitely follow your lead as the coach and the enthusiasm you show for your job will rub off on them.” Mainieri readily credits his success to the guidance of those three Hall of Famers. “To this day, I still regularly call each of these men to ask for their advice,” he says. “I think it’s safe to say I’ve learned from the best!”

representing the most since eight Tigers were taken in the 2001 draft. The 2008 team’s cumulative GPA for the spring semester was 2.89, the highest figure in LSU Baseball history, and the cumulative GPA for the entire 2007-08 academic year was 2.83, also the highest ever recorded by the baseball program. In addition, the Tigers logged 345 hours of community service work, the most by any of the LSU men’s sports programs during the 2007-08 academic year. Mainieri has established an active community service function within the baseball program, as the Tigers regularly visit hospitals and schools in the Baton Rouge area. The team also participates in the ALS Walk -- promoting awareness of the treatment of Lou Gehrig’s Disease -- and in the Buddy Walk, which is designed to encourage acceptance and inclusion of people with Down Syndrome. Mainieri is personally involved in several philanthropic causes, including Cancer Services of Baton Rouge, the ALS Association, the Mental Health Association of Greater Baton Rouge, Prevent Child Abuse and the McMains Development Center for Children. It is Mainieri’s goal to finish his collegiate baseball career in the same place it began 34 years ago. He earned a letter in 1976 as a freshman outfielder at LSU, where he also met his future wife, Karen, then a Fighting

Tiger cheerleader. He completed his playing career at the University of New Orleans, and, after enjoying great success as a head coach at St. Thomas (Fla.) University, the Air Force Academy and Notre Dame, Mainieri returned to Baton Rouge for the 2007 season eager to enhance the Fighting Tigers’ storied tradition. Mainieri and his staff laid the foundation for the future of the LSU program during the ‘07 season, as the Tigers posted a 29-26-1 overall mark. Despite its inexperience -- the Tigers often featured four true freshmen in the batting order -- LSU was in contention for an NCAA Tournament bid through the final weekend of the regular season. The ‘07 Tigers won four SEC series over Top 25 teams, as LSU posted series victories over No. 3 Arkansas, No. 13 Ole Miss, No. 15 Mississippi State (a 2007 CWS participant) and No. 25 Alabama. LSU was led by junior right-hander Jared Bradford, a second-team All-SEC selection who posted either a win or a save in 10 of the Tigers’ 12 SEC victories. Outfielder Blake Dean and catcher Sean Ochinko each received Freshman All-SEC recognition for their outstanding rookie seasons. LSU in 2007 led the nation in total attendance for the 12th straight season -- the final attendance figure was 256,537, an average of 7,329 per game. Mainieri established an unparalleled standard of

excellence during his tenure at Notre Dame (1995-2006), leading his teams to 11 40-win seasons, nine conference titles, nine NCAA Regional appearances and a berth in the 2002 College World Series, marking the school’s first CWS trip since 1957. Mainieri led Notre Dame to an NCAA Regional in every season from 1999-2006, making the Irish one of 10 teams to appear in every NCAA Tournament in that eight-year span – the others were Miami, Texas, Rice, Cal State Fullerton, Florida State, Stanford, Clemson, Tulane and Oral Roberts. Notre Dame also joined six other schools (LSU, Miami, Rice, South Carolina, Stanford and Texas) as the only programs to reach an NCAA Regional final every season from 2000-05. Sixty of Mainieri’s Notre Dame players were drafted or signed free-agent contracts, and 19 were selected in the first 10 rounds of the Major League draft. His Irish players also combined for 14 All-America and 10 Academic All-America seasons. Mainieri’s Notre Dame teams combined for a 100-percent graduation rate (71 of 71) among players who completed their eligibility. Twelve players who signed professionally after their junior year returned to Notre Dame to complete their degree requirements. Notre Dame was the only Division I baseball program to produce Academic All-Americans each year from 2000-04, with two honored every season from

2000-03. The 2006 squad combined for an impressive 3.28 team GPA during the spring semester. Notre Dame was one of just four schools from 1998-2001 that produced two pitchers - Brad Lidge (‘98, Houston Astros) and Aaron Heilman (`02, New York Mets) - who were drafted in the first round, with both players advancing to the Major Leagues. Mainieri and his staff consistently have molded players into top prospects, as Lidge was just a 42nd-round pick out of high school while Heilman was a 54th-round pick. Seven of Mainieri’s former Notre Dame players have reached the Major League level, including six pitchers – Brad Lidge (Astros/Phillies), Aaron Heilman (Mets/Cubs/Diamondbacks), Jeff Samardzija (Cubs), Jeff Manship (Twins), John Axford (Brewers) and Christian Parker (Yankees). Former Irish infielder Matt Macri (Twins) made his big league debut in 2008. Eight other recent Irish players developed into high draft picks despite going undrafted as prep players: pitchers Tim Kalita (7th round in ‘99), Danny Tamayo (10th round, ‘01), J.P. Gagne (13th round, ‘03) and Jeff Samardzija (5th round, ‘06), shortstop Alec Porzel (13th round, ‘01), centerfielder Steve Stanley (2nd round, ‘02), first baseman Craig Cooper (7th round, ‘06), and pitcher Kyle Weiland (3rd round in 2008).

were drafted out of high school went on to be drafted in a higher round at Notre Dame while 24 who were undrafted as prep players went on to be drafted as members of the Irish program. The 12 years of the Mainieri era at Notre Dame include 83 noteworthy players who have gone on to distinguish themselves after their Irish careers. Among that group are: three pitchers who have reached the Major Leagues; 16 other current professional players (plus 29 former pro players); nine lawyers/current lawschool students; five medical/dental-school students; seven others who have received a master’s degree including two MBAs); three engineers; five involved in medical sales; 11 college/high school coaches; three teachers; three commodities brokers; a sports agent; a contractor; and a town mayor - plus others who are involved in areas such as youth services, accounting, sales, athletic administration, technology, advertising, graphic design, banking and consulting. In 12 seasons of Big East Conference play, the Irish won more league games (192-67-2, .740) than any other team in the conference. Mainieri owns the top career Big East winning percentage (.740) in the history of the league and four of his teams posted 20-plus wins in Big East play. Mainieri was voted in 2005 to the position of the ABCA’s chair of the Division I Baseball Coaches – which

he held for three years. He was also a member of the ABCA executive committee. Mainieri served on the NCAA Division I Baseball Issues Committee, and he was a member of the NCAA Academic Enhancement Working Group. Mainieri established in 2002 the Opening Night Dinner at Notre Dame, an event that he continues to hold each year at LSU. The event, now known as the First Pitch Banquet, has featured an impressive lineup of keynote speakers: Hall of Fame manager Tommy Lasorda, Chicago Cubs GM Jim Hendry, awardwinning author and lifelong baseball fan John Grisham, legendary baseball pitcher Roger Clemens and Notre Dame football coach Charlie Weis. A former Chicago White Sox farmhand, Mainieri was the first civilian baseball coach at Air Force and averaged 26 wins in six seasons (1989-’94) for a program that averaged just 15 wins in the six previous years. He is the only Air Force baseball coach to post six straight 20-win seasons and his 1994 squad led the nation in hitting (.360), slugging (.623) and triples (0.76 per game). Mainieri guided the 1993 Air Force team to its first winning season in nearly a decade (28-22), with a school-record 21 wins at home. He coached three All-Americans, two Freshman All-Americans and two Academic All-Americans with the Falcons.

Mainieri coached six seasons at St. Thomas (Fla.) University. Four of Mainieri’s teams at St. Thomas were ranked in the NCAA Division II Top 10 during the season. The 1984 Sunshine State Conference Coach of the Year saw his St. Thomas teams average 30 wins per season (after an average of just 18 wins in the six previous years). Mainieri was inducted into the St. Thomas Sports Hall of Fame in November 2009. Fifteen of Mainieri’s St. Thomas players entered pro baseball, with Joe Klink, Dane Johnson and Dan Rohrmeier each going on to appear on Major League rosters. Klink played with the 1987 Minnesota Twins and 1989 Oakland A’s World Series championship teams while also pitching with the Florida Marlins in 1994. Mainieri’s coaching career began at his alma mater, Columbus High School in Miami, where he served as assistant baseball and football coach for three years before taking over at St. Thomas in the fall of 1982. He also spent the final three years at St. Thomas as director of athletics. Mainieri was inducted into the Columbus High School Hall of Fame in October 2009.
A four-year letterwinner in college, Mainieri played one season at LSU, one season for his father, legendary JUCO coach Demie Mainieri, at Miami-Dade North Community College, and two seasons at the University of New Orleans. The second baseman helped the Privateers win two Sun Belt Conference titles and advance to the 1979 NCAA Tournament during his senior season. After completing his undergraduate degree requirements at Florida International (1980), Mainieri played two minor-league seasons before earning a master’s in sports administration from St. Thomas in 1982. Born August 29, 1957, in Morgantown, W.Va., Mainieri and wife Karen have four children: Nicholas (26), Alexandra (25), Samantha (23) and Thomas (15).

“Coach Mainieri knows the game but he knows his players even better. He knows how to manage players extremely well - knowing who he has to push harder and who he needs to give space, always getting the best out of his players. His door was always open and he was willing to listen to whatever was on your mind - all while treating everyone with the respect they deserved and caring about the person and his life, not just the player.” - Aaron Heilman, Arizona Diamondbacks reliever; Notre Dame pitcher (1998-2001)

Grewe
David David Grewe enters his second season as LSU’s associate head coach after helping lead the Tigers to the 2009 national championship. Grewe, the head coach at Michigan State from 2006-08, was named the Tigers’ associate head coach on June 26, 2008. He serves as LSU’s pitching coach and recruiting coordinator.

Grewe’s hiring reunited him with Paul Mainieri, as he worked under Mainieri at Notre Dame from 2003-05. Grewe was also reunited with LSU hitting coach Javi Sanchez, who played catcher at Notre Dame under Grewe’s supervision in 2003 and 2004. Grewe made an immediate impact upon the LSU program in his first season, directing a Tiger pitching staff that finished No. 6 in the nation in strikeouts per nine innings (9.5), No. 7 in walks allowed per nine innings (2.6) and No. 9 in earned run average (4.01). LSU posted the best ERA in the Southeastern Conference for the first time since 2002. “David Grewe has made a tremendous impact on our program in a very short time,” Mainieri said. “His work as our pitching coach last season was vital to our drive to the national championship, and he is recognized as one of the best recruiters in the nation. It’s very apparent David is proving every day that he is one of the outstanding young coaches in college baseball.” Grewe tutored three All-America pitchers in 2009 – right-handers Louis Coleman, Anthony Ranaudo and Matty Ott. Coleman was the ’09 SEC Pitcher of the Year, recording a 14-2 record, a 2.93 ERA and 142 strikeouts in 129 innings. Coleman finished the season ranked No. 2 in the nation in wins and No. 4 in strikeouts. Ranaudo, an all-SEC selection and a member of the College World Series all-tournament team, was 12-3 on the year with a 3.04 ERA and 159 strikeouts in 124.1 innings. Ranaudo was No. 3 in the nation in

strikeouts, and he became the first LSU pitcher to lead the SEC in Ks since Kurt Ainsworth in 1999. Ott, the SEC Co-Freshman of the Year, established an LSU single-season record with 16 saves. A finalist for the NCBWA Stopper of the Year award, Ott posted a 4-2 mark and a 2.68 ERA with six walks and 69 strikeouts in 50.1 innings. Grewe also provided national recognition for LSU in the recruiting realm, as his 2009 class was rated No. 3 in the nation by Collegiate Baseball magazine. Five members of the class were selected in the MLB Draft, and four of the players earned AllAmerica recognition during their careers. During Grewe’s three-year tenure at Michigan State, the Spartans compiled a 75-85 record, including a 42-53 mark in Big Ten play. The Spartan baseball program was in contention for postseason play on the final day of each of Grewe’s three seasons, and the program compiled the Big Ten’s top recruiting class for the 2009 season, according to Baseball America. In 2008, MSU recorded victories over traditional powers Stetson and Western Carolina while also winning a game against College World Series participant Rice. In 2007, the Spartans defeated South Florida, Oklahoma and won three of four at Ohio State. During Grewe’s three seasons, seven MSU players were selected in the MLB draft. Three players were taken in the 2008 draft, topping each of the previous two years when two players were selected. The Spartans also enjoyed notable achievements in

the classroom under Grewe. Thirty MSU baseball players were named Academic All-Big Ten during his tenure, including 12 student-athletes in 2006. Grewe arrived in East Lansing following three years at Notre Dame (2003-05) where he served as the recruiting coordinator and the hitting and catching instructor under Mainieri. During his tenure, the Irish compiled a combined record of 134-54-1 (.712), including three straight Big East Tournament championships and three-consecutive NCAA Regional appearances. Over his three-year period with Notre Dame, Grewe helped the squad to the fourth-most wins in all of NCAA Division I. At Notre Dame, Grewe established himself as one of the nation’s top recruiters. He helped attract two top-10 recruiting classes to South Bend, Ind., including the 2004 Class (ranked No. 6 by Baseball America) and the 2006 Class (ranked No. 7 by Team One Baseball). While on the Notre Dame coaching staff, Grewe also supervised the transformation of Sanchez, from starting shortstop (2002) to all-star catcher. With no catching experience prior to 2003, Sanchez emerged as a polished catcher and clutch hitter, earning 2003 Big East Tournament MVP honors and a spot on the NCAA Fullerton Regional All-Tournament team. His steady development and refined defensive skills prompted the Minnesota Twins to select Sanchez in the 14th round of the 2004 Major League Baseball Draft. Grewe coached 13 players at Notre Dame that were drafted or played professional baseball. He also recruited five players that were drafted out of high school and continued their playing career at Notre Dame. Grewe spent two years as an assistant coach at Central Michigan (2001-02), where he coached the infielders and catchers and served as hitting instructor under Judd Folske. He was also extremely involved with the pitchers and called pitches for CMU pitchers during the games. Grewe coached five CMU players who went on to professional baseball. In 2001, the Chippewas set single-season records for runs scored (470) and RBI (422). The 626 hits (second), 988 total bases (second) and 69 home runs (third) all ranked among the top single-season totals in CMU history. Grewe spent two seasons as an assistant coach at the University of Chicago (1999-2000) under Brian Baldea, serving as hitting instructor, infield coach and recruiting coordinator. In 2000, the Maroons ranked No. 19 in NCAA Division III in batting average (.347) while averaging 8.47 runs per game. Grewe earned three letters at Dayton (1996-98) while starting games at catcher, first base and third base. He started at third base for the 1996 team that set the Dayton record for wins, including an upset victory in Alex Box Stadium over eventual national champion LSU. The Royal Oak, Mich., native graduated from Dayton in 1998 as a sports management major, with a double minor in marketing and public relations. While coaching at Central Michigan, he served as a graduate teaching assistant while studying towards a master’s degree in athletic administration. Grewe married the former Annie Brammer, a native of South Bend, Ind., in the fall of 2006. The Grewes have two children – Charlie (2) and Mary Claire (1).

Coaches Review History
Highlights • LSU coach Paul Mainieri directed the 2009 Tigers to the College World Series title, posting a 56-17 overall record, including a 10-1 mark in NCAA Tournament competition. The Tigers defeated Texas in the CWS Championship Finals to win the national title, LSU’s sixth CWS championship and its first since 2000. Mainieri also guided his squad to the 2009 Southeastern Conference regular-season and tournament titles. The 2009 season was a magnificent year that began with LSU ranked No. 1 in the polls and ended with the Tigers still occupying college baseball’s summit. The Tigers are now 6-0 in winnertake-all games for the CWS championship, also claiming national titles in 1991, 1993, 1996, 1997 and 2000. LSU defeated Wichita State in 1991 and 1993, Miami (Fla.) in 1996, Alabama in 1997 and Stanford in 2000. • LSU tied Texas for second place on the all-time College World Series titles list by defeating the Longhorns in the ’09 CWS Finals. Texas has six national championships, followed by LSU and Arizona State with five each. Southern California is in first place with 12 national titles.
• LSU has a 122-45 (.731) alltime record in the NCAA Tournament and owns the highest winning percentage in tournament history. The Tigers made their 15th College World Series appearance in 2009 – LSU is 35-20 (.632) at the CWS. • LSU, which won 26 of its final 29 games to close the 2008 season, has a remarkable 82-20 (.804) record since April 22, 2008. The Tigers’ late-season drive to the 2008 CWS featured an SEC-record 23-game win streak, and LSU won 15 of its final 16 games from May 21-June 22 of the ’09 season en route to the national title. • LSU in 2009 won its first Southeastern Conference regular-season title since 2003, posting a 20-10 SEC mark. The Tigers then became the first league school since Alabama in 2002-03 to win consecutive SEC Tournament titles. • LSU played host to the 2009 NCAA Baton Rouge Regional, where the Tigers
defeated Southern, Baylor and Minnesota to set up a Super Regional matchup versus Rice in Alex Box Stadium. LSU swept two games from the Owls, earning a berth to the CWS for the second straight season and for the 15th time in school history. • The Tigers defeated Virginia in their CWS opener and recorded two wins over Arkansas to advance to the CWS Championship Finals versus Texas. Trailing 6-4 in the ninth inning of Game 1, the Tigers staged a dramatic two-run rally and eventually prevailed, 7-6, in 11 innings. The Longhorns posted a 5-1 win in Game 2; however, LSU overwhelmed UT, 11-4, in the deciding game to claim the NCAA championship trophy. • Three LSU pitchers earned AllAmerica recognition in 2009 – right-handers Louis Coleman, Anthony Ranaudo and Matty Ott. Coleman was the ’09 SEC Pitcher of the Year, recording a 14-2 record, a 2.93 ERA and 142 strikeouts in 129 innings. Coleman finished the season ranked No. 2 in the nation in wins and No. 4 in strikeouts. Ranaudo, an all-SEC selection and a member of the College World Series all-tournament team, was 12-3 on the year with a 3.04 ERA and 159 strikeouts in 124.1 innings. Ranaudo was No. 3 in the nation in strikeouts, and he became the first LSU pitcher to lead the SEC in Ks since Kurt Ainsworth in 1999. Ott, the SEC Co-Freshman of the Year, established an LSU singleseason record with 16 saves. A finalist for the NCBWA Stopper of the Year award, Ott posted a 4-2 mark and a 2.68 ERA with six walks and 69 strikeouts in 50.1 innings.

The next batter, Dean, hit a deep sacrifice fly to right, scoring LeMahieu and giving the Tigers a 2-1 lead with one out. Schimpf moved up to third on the play. Gibbs followed with his second RBI of the game when he ripped a single to left to score Schimpf and put the LSU ahead 3-1. The Cavaliers fought back in the fourth and made the score 3-2 when shortstop Tyler Cannon tripled to lead off the inning and scored on a shallow blooper to right by catcher Franco Valdes. Werman followed Valdes with an infield single and Ranaudo walked centerfielder Jarrett Parker to load the bases with one out. Right-hander Paul Bertuccini came out of the bullpen to relieve Ranaudo and retired the next two batters to end the Cavalier threat with the bases loaded in the fourth. A sliding catch by Schimpf in left field saved the LSU lead heading into the bottom of the frame. Ranaudo turned in his shortest outing of the season, pitching 3.1 innings and allowing two runs on five hits while walking four and striking out three. Virginia tied the score at 3-3 in the top of the fifth when third baseman Steven Proscia belted a solo homer to left off Bertuccini. It was Proscia’s 10th homer of the season. The Cavaliers followed with back-to-back singles by Cannon and first baseman John Hicks with one out in the fifth. Cannon later scored on a single by Werman, his third hit of the game, to give Virginia its first lead of the game 4-3. Ross came on in relief for Bertuccini with two outs in the fifth and struck out Parker to end the inning. It was Ross’ first relief appearance of the season. The Tigers regained the lead in the bottom of the frame when Ochinko blasted a three-run homer to left after Gibbs and Mikie Mahtook hit back-to-back singles, giving LSU a 6-4 advantage. Ochinko’s eighth homer of the year was his first since April 3 against Georgia. Virginia wouldn’t go away in the seventh as Valdes blasted a solo homer to left to pull the Cavaliers within one at 6-5. The previous batter, Hicks, reached base on a single, but was thrown out trying to steal by Gibbs. LSU extended its lead to 7-5 in the eighth when Austin Nola was hit by a pitch and stole second and scored on a single by LeMahieu. The next batter, Schimpf, laced his 20th homer of the season, a two-run dinger that put LSU up 9-5. Freshman right-hander Matty Ott closed out the ninth for LSU, striking out Parker to end the game.

#1 LSU vs #7 Arkansas
June 15, 2009 at Omaha, Neb. (Rosenblatt Stadium) Homers by centerfielder Mikie Mahtook, shortstop Austin Nola and designated hitter Blake Dean, as well as a solid performance by starter Louis Coleman, paced No.1 LSU to a 9-1 victory over Arkansas in the second round of the College World Series. Coleman (14-2) threw six innings, allowing one run on six hits while walking three and striking out seven. The senior from Schlater, Miss., became LSU’s first 14-game winner since Patrick Coogan posted 14 victories in 1997. Righfielder Jared Mitchell and second baseman DJ LeMahieu led LSU offensively with three hits apiece. LeMahieu became the first player in LSU history to record back-to-back three-hit games in the College World Series. After LeMahieu led off the game with a single and stole second and Schimpf walked, centerfielder Mikie Mahtook blasted a three-run homer to left to give the Tigers a 3-0 lead in the first inning. Mahtook’s homer was the first by an LSU freshman in the College World Series since Mike Fontenot homered against Texas on June 10, 2000. The Razorbacks responded in the bottom of the frame with back-to back hits by Ben Tschepikow and Scott Lyons. First baseman Andy Wilkins knocked in Tschepikow from third with a sacrifice fly to left to make the score 3-1. LSU increased its lead to 4-1 in the second when LeMahieu laced a two-out single to right and then scored from first on a double by Ryan Schimpf, which went over the head of Arkansas centerfielder Colin Kuhn. The Tigers’ four runs came off of right-handed starter Brett Eibner, who only lasted 1.2 innings, allowing five hits. Eibner was replaced by right-hander TJ Forrest, who came in and struck out Micah Gibbs to retire LSU in the second. After another double by Tschepikow and walks by Wilkins and second baseman Bo Bigham, Coleman struck out pinch hitter Jacob House with the bases loaded to end the Arkansas threat in the third. LSU got back on the board in the sixth when shortstop Austin Nola belted a solo homer over the left field wall, putting the Tigers ahead 5-1. Later in the inning, designated hitter Blake Dean launched a two-out, two-run homer to deep left off Forrest to give LSU a 7-1 advantage. Right-hander Sam Murphy came on in relief for Forrest after Dean’s homer. With a 3-2 count and two outs in the sixth, right fielder Jared Mitchell ripped a single to left that scored Gibbs and Mahtook after Arkansas leftfielder Chase Leavitt’s throw to third got by Zack Cox. Mitchell advanced to third on the play and LSU took a 9-1 lead into the bottom of the sixth. Daniel Bradshaw came on in relief for Coleman in the seventh and threw two innings, allowing no runs on two hits while walking none and striking out two. Nolan Cain closed out the game for LSU in the ninth, allowing one hit and striking out two.

#1 LSU vs #7 Arkansas
June 19, 2009 at Omaha, Neb. (Rosenblatt Stadium) LSU’s four home runs led a 16-hit barrage and starter Anthony Ranaudo threw six shutout innings as the topranked Tigers stormed past Arkansas 14-5 to advance to the championship series of the College World Series. Ranaudo (11-3) gave a solid performance, throwing six innings and allowing no runs on only four hits while walking none and striking out five. Leading LSU offensively were designated hitter Blake Dean, who went 2-for-4 with a home run and two RBI and Ryan Schimpf, who hit 3-for-5 with a homer and two runs scored. Arkansas left-hander Stephen Richards started the game well, striking out DJ LeMahieu and Ryan Schimpf before surrendering a double to Blake Dean. The next batter, Micah Gibbs, slapped a single up the middle to score Dean and give the Tigers an early 1-0 lead. LSU made the score 2-0 in the third when shortstop Austin Nola led off with a single and scored after LeMahieu walked, Schimpf singled and Dean reached first on an error. Mikie Mahtook made the score 3-0 when he lifted a sacrifice fly to center to score LeMahieu from third. Schimpf advanced to third on Mahtook’s sacrifice and scored on a wild pitch from reliever Mike Bolsinger to put LSU ahead 4-0. The Tigers got on the board again in the fifth when Blake Dean crushed a solo homer to right to give LSU a 5-0 advantage. It was Dean’s 17th homer of the year and his second of the College World Series. In the sixth, right fielder Jared Mitchell blasted a solo homer to the opposite field in left off Razorback reliever TJ Forrest to make the score 6-0 in favor of LSU. The homer was Mitchell’s 10th of the season. For the third time in three innings, the Tigers launched a solo homer with one out. In the seventh, Ryan Schimpf lifted a dinger over the wall in right to give LSU a 7-0 lead. The Tigers weren’t finished in the seventh as Dean walked and advanced to third when Gibbs reached base on an error by Forrest. The next batter, Mahtook, ripped a single to right, scoring Dean and putting LSU up 8-0. First baseman Sean Ochinko made the score 9-0 later in the inning when he laced a double down the left field line, scoring Gibbs. It was Ochinko’s fourth RBI in this year’s College World Series. Later in the seventh, LSU loaded the bases when Mitchell walked with Mahtook and Ochinko already on bases. Mahtook crossed the plate on a wild pitch, making the score 10-0. The next batter, pinch hitter Tyler Hanover, crushed a double off the wall in right to plate Ochinko and give the Tigers an 11-0 lead.

2009 Season Notebook CWS #1 LSU vs #4 Texas
June 22, 2009 at Omaha, Neb. (Rosenblatt Stadium) After second baseman DJ LeMahieu erased a 6-4 deficit with a two-out RBI double in the ninth to tie the game 6-6, centerfielder Mikie Mahtook laced a two-out RBI single in the 11th to give top-ranked LSU a 7-6 victory over Texas in Game 1 of the National Championship Series. Freshman right-hander Matty Ott (4-2) earned the win for LSU, throwing three shutout innings between the ninth and eleventh, allowing no hits and striking out three. LSU’s bullpen of Chad Jones, Paul Bertuccini and Matty Ott allowed no hits in the final five innings in relief of starter Louis Coleman. Coleman pitched six innings and allowed six runs on nine hits, including five solo homers, while striking out six. Offensively, the Tigers were led by a 2-for-4 performance by LeMahieu, who also had three RBI and scored twice. Rightfielder Jared Mitchell also had two hits, including a two-RBI triple. LSU wasted no time getting on the scoreboard as leftfielder Ryan Schimpf, the second batter of the game, blasted the second pitch from Texas starter Chance Ruffin over the wall in right center to put the Tigers up 1-0. It was Schimpf’s 22nd homer of the season and his third in the College World Series. After notching only one hit through the first three innings, Texas tied the score in the fourth with a solo home run by second baseman Travis Tucker to tie the score at 1-1. Two batters later, designated hitter Russell Moldenhauer crushed a ball off one of the flagpoles in centerfield to give the Longhorns a 2-1 advantage. It was only the second homer of the year for Moldenhauer. Texas right fielder Kevin Keyes belted the Longhorns’ third solo homer in the inning two batters later, giving Texas a 3-1 lead. In the sixth, Ruffin left the game with two outs and Blake Dean on third and Micah Gibbs on first, giving way to lefthanded reliever Austin Wood. The next batter, Jared Mitchell, hit a triple to left-center field, scoring Dean and Gibbs, tying the score at 3-3. The Longhorns responded in the bottom of the frame when Moldenhauer launched his second solo homer of the game off Coleman, putting Texas back on top 4-3. Texas made the score 5-3 when Keyes crossed the plate on a wild pitch by Coleman. The senior right-hander ended the sixth by striking out leftfielder Preston Clark with a runner on third. The Tigers pulled the score within one in the seventh when second baseman DJ LeMahieu pounded a solo homer over the wall in center to make the score 5-4. In the bottom of the frame, Texas blasted their fifth solo homer off the game, this time off the bat of centerfielder Connor Rowe, to put the Longhorns ahead 6-4. Left-hander Chad Jones entered the game for Coleman after Rowe’s homer and retired the Longhorns in order, striking out first baseman Brandon Belt to end the inning. The Tigers erased a 6-4 deficit with two outs in the ninth when LeMahieu laced a double down the left field line scoring Leon Landry and Derek Helenihi, tying the score at 6-6 heading to the bottom of the ninth. After Ott got out of the ninth unscathed, the Tigers loaded the bases in the tenth, but Texas right-hander Brandon Workman entered the game with one out and struck out Helenihi and Tyler Hanover to end the LSU threat. In the 11th, Ott struck out shortstop Brandon Loy and Maitland before forcing Rowe to ground out to Hanover at second base to end the game.

#4 Texas vs #1 LSU
June 23, 2009 at Omaha, Neb. (Rosenblatt Stadium) Texas starter Taylor Jungmann pitched a complete game and the Longhorns collected 12 hits, including two homers to defeat top-ranked LSU 5-1 to force a Game 3 in the Championship Series. Jungmann (11-3) held the Tigers hitless from the fourth through the eighth innings and finished his complete game allowing one run on five hits, while walking two and striking out nine. The Tigers (55-17) lost their first game since a 4-1 loss to Vanderbilt in the opening game of SEC tournament on May 24, snapping a 14-game winning streak. The Tigers’ lone run came in the third when second baseman DJ LeMahieu led off the inning with a triple. Leon Landry, Jared Mitchell, Blake Dean and Micah Gibbs each had one hit. Texas got out to an early 1-0 lead in the first after third baseman Michael Torres led off with a walk and scored on an RBI single by first baseman Brandon Belt. The Longhorns added to their lead in the second when left fielder Preston Clark lined a solo homer over the wall in left to make the score 2-0. In the bottom of the frame, Jared Mitchell and Leon Landry hit back-to-back singles with two outs before Derek Helenihi reached on an error by shortstop Brandon Loy, allowing Mitchell to score from second and cut the LSU deficit to 2-1. Senior left-hander Ryan Byrd came on in relief for LSU in the third after starter Austin Ross (6-8) left the game after allowing two runs on four hits in two innings of work. With one out in the third, Texas designated hitter Russell Moldenhauer blasted a solo homer, his fourth of the College World Series, over the wall in right-center field to give the Longhorns a 3-1 lead. The next batter, Cameron Rupp doubled and scored on an RBI double by center fielder Connor Rowe to increase the Texas lead to 4-1. Clark then singled to the left side, scoring Rowe and giving the Longhorns a 5-1 lead. LSU relievers Nolan Cain and Daniel Bradshaw combined to shutout the Longhorns through the last six innings, allowing a total of five hits combined.

#1 LSU vs #4 Texas
June 24, 2009 at Omaha, Neb. (Rosenblatt Stadium) Right fielder Jared Mitchell’s three-run homer in the first and a five-run sixth inning lifted top-ranked LSU to an 11-4 victory over Texas as the Tigers captured the 2009 National Championship. The Tigers (56-17) won their sixth national championship in school history, the first since 2000 and the first under head coach Paul Mainieri. The Tigers are now 6-0 in winner-take-all NCAA championship games. “I’ve dreamt my whole life of having this moment. It’s almost surreal,” Mainieri said. “My first thoughts are with this wonderful university and with this state and its tenacious people. This championship is for them. “We’ve had a wonderful group of kids. They’ve done everything you’ve asked them to do. They did everything they needed to do to be called champions.” The winning pitcher was sophomore right-hander Anthony Ranaudo (12-3), who threw 5.1 innings and allowed four runs on eight hits with five walks and eight strikeouts. Ranaudo was named to the All-Tournament team along with second baseman DJ LeMahieu and outfielders Ryan Schimpf and Jared Mitchell. Mitchell was also named Most Outstanding Player of the College World Series, after hitting .347 (8-for-23) with two homers, seven RBI, two doubles and a triple. Leading LSU offensively in Game 3 was first baseman Sean Ochinko, who went 4-for-5 with a homer, three RBI and two runs. Longhorn starter Cole Green retired LeMahieu and Schimpf to begin the game before hitting Blake Dean and giving up a single to Ochinko. The next batter, Mitchell, lined a two-strike pitch just within the foul pole in right to give the Tigers a 3-0 lead. The homer was Mitchell’s 11th of the season and second of the College World Series. “As the starting pitcher, the three-run home run in the first gives you a lot of room to go and compete and throw strikes,” Ranaudo said. “I didn’t have my best stuff today. That has been the story of the season for us, when the pitchers didn’t have their best stuff, the hitters picked them up and when the hitting wasn’t going the pitchers picked them up.” In the bottom of the first, Texas strung together a couple of hits and catcher Cameron Rupp loaded the bases on a two-out walk. Ranaudo struck out the next batter, Kevin Keyes to end the Longhorn threat in the first and preserve LSU’s 3-0 lead. Catcher Micah Gibbs led off the LSU second inning with a single and later scored on a two-out RBI single by Schimpf to increase the Tigers’ lead to 4-0. Green left the game for Texas after only throwing two innings and allowing four runs on five hits. Sophomore right-hander Brandon Workman entered the game for the Longhorns to start the third and allowed no runs in the inning, despite giving up a lead-off single to Ochinko. Texas got on the board in the third when second baseman Travis Tucker led off with a double and later scored on an infield groundout by Rupp to make the score 4-1. The Longhorns narrowed the gap to 4-2 after Ranaudo walked Preston Clark with the bases loaded. It was the third-straight walk in the inning by Ranaudo. Shortstop Brandon Loy grounded out to Austin Nola to end the Texas threat in the third. Texas tied the score in the fifth when Keyes smashed a two-run homer following a lead-off single by Rupp. Keyes’ ninth homer of the season tied the score at 4-4. The Tigers responded in the sixth when Mitchell drew a lead-off walk and scored on an RBI double by centerfielder Mikie Mahtook to put LSU back on top 5-4. Right-hander Austin Dicharry came into pitch for Texas after Mahtook’s double. The next batter, Gibbs, reached first on a sacrifice bunt and throwing error while Mahtook advanced to third. Derek Helenihi then lifted a deep sacrifice fly to left, scoring Mahtook and giving the Tigers a 6-4 lead. After Gibbs advanced to third on a wild pitch and Dicharry walked LeMahieu, Texas brought in left-hander Austin Wood. Wood hit Schimpf to load the bases for Dean with two outs. After three straight balls, Dean was hit by a pitch, allowing Gibbs to score from third. Ochinko then belted his third hit of the game through the left side, scoring LeMahieu and Schimpf to increase the Tigers’ lead to 9-4. Ranaudo left the game in the bottom of the sixth after retiring Tucker on a fly out to center, giving way to lefthander Chad Jones. Jones struck out the next two batters to end the sixth inning. The Tigers increased the lead to 10-4 in the eighth after Austin Nola doubled to lead off the inning and later scored on a sacrifice fly by Schimpf. Louis Coleman entered the game in the bottom of the eighth after pitching six innings in Monday’s 7-6 win over Texas in Game 1. Coleman allowed one hit in the eighth and struck out one. Ochinko blasted a solo homer to left in the top of the ninth to give the Tigers an 11-4 lead. It was Ochinko’s fourth hit of the game and his seventh RBI of the College World Series. Coleman made his final appearance in a Tiger uniform in the ninth inning, as he struck out the side to end the game and start an LSU celebration on the pitcher’s mound. “If there is a better way (to end this season), write the story for me,” Mitchell said. “It’s been so much fun … to accomplish something like this with these players.” LSU 11 (56-17) Player AB DJ LeMahieu 2b 4 Chris McGhee 2b 0 Ryan Schimpf lf 3 Leon Landry lf 0 Blake Dean dh 3 Sean Ochinko 1b 5 Buzzy Haydel 1b 0 Jared Mitchell rf 4 Nicholas Pontiff rf 0 Mikie Mahtook cf 5 Micah Gibbs c 4 Derek Helenihi 3b 4 Austin Nola ss 4 Anthony Ranaudo p 0 Chad Jones p 0 Louis Coleman p 0 Totals 36

LSU’s 1900 Baseball Team
L
ouisiana State University has a colorful 117-year (114 seasons) baseball history which began with the first team in 1893 and has continued uninterrupted since 1905. Although baseball was played at LSU prior to 1893, no contests had been scheduled with any clubs outside of Baton Rouge. The team of 1892 won all of its games against local competition. On May 13, 1893, in connection with a military field day, LSU was engaged in its first intercollegiate athletic contest and defeated the nine from Tulane University. That was the only game of 1893 and captain E.B. Young, in selecting materials for uniforms to be used for the May 13 contest, chose the colors of Old Gold and Purple. The baseball squad of 1893 had the honor of first wearing the colors that later were adopted as the official University colors. In 1904, a game was scheduled to start the year against a local professional club. That game, however, was cancelled when the Tiger captain and manager resigned upon the refusal of the university president to grant permission for the cadets to attend the contest. The team disbanded and no further contests were played that year. In 1915 C.C. “Doc” Stroud took over as Tiger coach and eventually became the first man to lead LSU for more than two seasons. In 1919 Stroud led LSU to a 12-4 campaign, a mark that had been bettered only one time before and would not be surpassed again until 1936. In that 1919 season, the Tigers had a fine young pitcher named Tom Staples who threw a perfect game in a 9-0 win over Louisiana College. He also pitched and won both games of a doubleheader that same year. In 1927 Harry Rabenhorst was named head coach and served in that capacity until 1956, with the exception of a three-year period from 1943-45. During that three-year span, A.L. Swanson was the Tigers’ field manager. In Swanson’s first year, the Tigers lost their first three games of the
season, but bounced back to win 12 of the next 16 and LSU’s second SEC championship. The first SEC title came back to LSU in 1939 under Rabenhorst. The ‘39 team was one of LSU’s best as it posted a 22-5 record for an .815 winning percentage. The team was led by first baseman Paul Brotherton, outfielder Ken Kavanaugh, Sr. and pitcher Jesse Danna, and had a winning streak of 13 games before losing to Minnesota in a swing through the Western (Big 10) Conference. Besides the 1939 and 1943 championships, LSU also won conference titles in 1946 - under Rabenhorst - and in 1961 under Ray Didier, but not again until 1975 under Jim Smith. During Smith’s tenure, however, the Tigers won or tied for the SEC Western Division title on three occasions. The 1975 team became the first LSU squad to participate in the NCAA Tournament, as the Tigers played in the South Regional at Starkville, Former LSU infielder Alvin Dark managed Miss. LSU won its five Major League teams.

first regional game over Murray State, but was eliminated from the tournament after consecutive losses to Florida State and Miami (Fla.). LSU coaches in the early years supplemented their collegiate schedules with competition against professional opponents. This gave the Tigers excellent chances to gain experience, but rare chances for victory. Among the Tigers’ most noteworthy losses was a 17-7 defeat at the hands of the Chicago White Sox in 1925. Other pro opponents included the Detroit, Cleveland, New York and St. Louis major league teams, Indianapolis of the American Association, Nashville and New Orleans of the Southern Association, plus several teams from Louisiana’s celebrated Class “C” Evangeline League. Through the early years, numerous Tigers made it into the professional ranks. A.W. Baird in 1916 was the first Tiger known to have signed a pro contract. Since then, many players from LSU made their mark in the major leagues, including Walker Cress, Cincinnati Reds; Dave Madison, Detroit Tigers; Buddy Blair, Philadelphia Athletics; Mark Freeman, New York Yankees; Connie Ryan, Boston Braves; Alvin Dark, New York Giants; Joe Bill Adcock, Milwaukee Braves; Art Swanson, Pittsburgh Pirates; Mike Miley, California Angels; and Randy Wiles, Chicago White Sox. Those and other outstanding players performed on a number of diamonds on the LSU campus. In 1929, the Tigers’ home

games were played on a field located on the Campanile Parade Grounds. In 1936, the playing field was located north of the football stadium and was equipped with wooden bleachers. In 1938, LSU baseball moved into what was later to be named Alex Box Stadium, the home of the Fighting Tigers for 70 years (19382008).

The Skip Bertman Years 1984-2001
LSU INTRO THIS IS LSU Preview tigers Coaches Review History records lsu
T
o Skip Bertman, striving for excellence isn’t just a catchy motto or slogan; it’s how he has approached every task he has undertaken in his life -- from his playing days at the University of Miami, to his highlysuccessful 11-year stint as head baseball coach at Miami Beach High School, to his eight years as associate head coach at UM, to his remarkable 18-year tenure (1984-2001) as LSU’s baseball coach. Bertman, who recently completed a seven-year term (2001-08) as LSU’s athletics director, led the Tigers to five College World Series titles and a sterling 870-330-3 mark (.724) in 18 seasons, giving him the highest all-time winning percentage among SEC coaches. Bertman also had the fourth-highest percentage among active NCAA coaches at the time of his retirement, trailing only Wichita State’s Gene Stephenson, Gary Ward of Oklahoma State and Florida State’s Mike Martin. Bertman, USC legend Rod Dedeaux and Augie Garrido of Texas are the only coaches in NCAA history to win five national championships. In addition to the five national championships (1991, 1993, 1996, 1997, 2000) Bertman’s LSU teams also claimed

seven SEC championships, nine 50-win seasons, 11 CWS berths and six SEC Tournament championships. Bertman’s jersey #15 has been retired by LSU – the first baseball number to receive that designation from the university – and the street in front of the original Alex Box Stadium was re-named Skip Bertman Drive. Bertman was inducted into the American Baseball Coaches Association Hall of Fame in January 2003 and into the College Baseball Hall of Fame in July 2006. As much as LSU’s dominance can be attributed to Bertman, the players have also had a huge part in that success. During Bertman’s tenure at LSU, more than 100 players were drafted into professional baseball, with 41 Tigers reaching the major leagues. Bertman produced 11 first-team All-America performers, and more importantly, nearly 100 percent of those who played for at least four years in the Tiger program earned their LSU degrees. Bertman came to LSU after a highly successful eight-year stint at Miami, where he was associate head coach and pitching coach under Hall of Fame coach Ron Fraser. The Bertman-Fraser

partnership produced 427 wins and five berths in the CWS, including the Hurricanes’ first national championship in 1982. Bertman’s recruiting also laid much of the groundwork for Miami’s second national championship in 1985, which was Bertman’s second year at LSU. Bertman was also an accomplished international coach, serving as pitching coach on the 1988 United States goldmedal squad, then leading the USA as head coach to the bronze medal at the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta. Bertman has authored two books (Coaching Youth League Baseball and Skip: The Man and the System), produced a motivational video (Motivation and Teamwork: Winning the Big One), and has been a featured speaker and clinician at banquets, civic organizations and youth groups around the country. Bertman’s Era of Excellence as LSU’s baseball coach ended in June 2001, but his service to the university continued on a more comprehensive level. On January 19, 2001, the LSU Board of Supervisors paved the way for another
Bertman era, as the panel unanimously approved LSU Chancellor Mark Emmert’s selection of Bertman to be the school’s seventh permanent athletics director since LSU became a charter member of the Southeastern Conference in 1933. Bertman assumed his duties as athletics director on August 6, 2001. As athletics director, Bertman supervised a highly successful 20-sport program. With a diverse and talented coaching staff as well as some of the best facilities in the nation, Bertman enhanced LSU’s status as one of the best athletics programs in the country.

LSU completed a magnificent 1991 season with a 55-18 record as the Tigers captured their first baseball national title and the 19th overall national championship for the school. Head coach Skip Bertman directed the Tigers to the 1991 NCAA title after having led his team to the College World Series in five of the past six seasons. Bertman was recognized as the National Coach of the Year by Collegiate Baseball magazine shortly after LSU’s World Series victory. The Tigers became the first team since
Miami (Fla.) in 1982 to win the national title without a loss in the NCAA Tournament; LSU won eight consecutive games in the tournament, including four in the South Regional and four in the College World Series. As a team, the Tigers set a College World Series record by averaging 12 runs per game, breaking the previous mark of 11 per contest established by Notre Dame in 1957. LSU also set a new Series mark with a team fielding percentage of .993. The Tigers committed only one error
in 148 chances. LSU equaled the College World Series mark for most home runs with nine, tying the record set by Arizona State in 1981. Catcher Gary Hymel blasted four homers, rightfielder Lyle Mouton belted three, designated hitter Pat Garrity contributed one and centerfielder Armando Rios launched a two-run shot in the championship game win over Wichita State. The Tigers outscored their four Series opponents, 48-15, while recording a team batting average of .329, including five doubles, four triples

Hymel, Mouton, pitcher Chad Ogea and first baseman Johnny Tellechea were named to the College World Series AllTournament team. Mouton batted .429 in the Series with three homers and 10 RBI; Ogea earned wins over Florida and Wichita State, compiling a 1.74 ERA in 10 1/3 innings; Tellechea hit .438 with two doubles, one RBI and five runs. LSU culminated its championship year on July 9, 1991, with a trip to the White House. President George Bush recognized the Tigers in a special Rose Garden ceremony which also honored major league legends Joe DiMaggio and Ted Williams. LSU became only the third collegiate baseball team to receive an invitation to the White House.

A century of baseball excellence was culminated in June, 1993, as LSU captured its second NCAA title in three years with an 8-0 victory over Wichita State in the College World Series final. In the 100th anniversary season of the Fighting Tiger program, head coach Skip Bertman and his players reinforced LSU’s status as the nation’s premier baseball power. The Tigers began the 1993 campaign as the nation’s No. 1 team in all three of the college baseball polls. The Tigers’ pre-conference scheduled featured a 12-game winning streak which extended through the month of March as
LSU prepared to defend its SEC title. The Tigers’ drive to win their fourth straight league crown was spearheaded by Todd Walker, who established an SEC single-season record with a 33-game hitting streak. The regular-season also featured a “Turn Back the Clock” game against Tulane in Alex Box Stadium, as players from both teams wore oldfashioned uniforms and used wooden bats. The Tigers defeated the Green Wave 6-3 in a game which commemorated LSU’s 100year baseball history. LSU went on to become the first team in league annals to win four straight SEC championships and, after
a 9-4 win over South Alabama in the NCAA South Regional final at Alex Box Stadium, the Tigers advanced to the College World Series for the sixth time in eight seasons. The Tigers returned to Omaha’s Rosenblatt Stadium for another National Championship crusade. The fifth-seeded Tigers disposed of fourthseeded Long Beach State to open the Series as left fielder Jim Greely launched two home runs and collected a personal-best five RBI. Left-hander Mike Sirotka handcuffed the 49ers with a three-hit, nine strikeout performance. LSU posted a furious rally against top-seeded Texas A&M in the next

round, overcoming a 7-2 deficit and grabbing a 9-8 lead on an eighth inning single by Armando Rios. Then, with the bases loaded, Todd Walker provided one of the series’ most scintillating moments, unloading his third grand slam of the season to cap the 13-8 triumph. The momentum generated by the win over the Aggies was vanquished three days later as Long Beach State rallied for an improbable 10-8 victory, striking for four runs in their final at-bat. Now LSU faced a third meeting with Long Beach, with the winner advancing to the World Series championship game. The Tigers, on the strength of a two-run double by Rios, tied the game 5-5 in the bottom of the ninth before Walker delivered the game-winning single for a thrilling 6-5 victory. LSU was one victory away from fulfilling a
season-long dream. LSU faced Wichita State in the national championship game for the second time in three years, and unlike the first meeting in 1991, this game offered little suspense. Todd Walker’s two-run homer in the first inning began LSU’s surge to another World Series title. LSU added three runs in the second inning as Armando Rios sandwiched a sacrifice fly between RBI singles by Walker and by Jason Williams. While the Tigers bolted to the big lead, freshman righthander Brett Laxton was in the process of making College World Series history. Relying primarily on an exploding fastball with an occasional paralyzing slider, Laxton set a CWS championship game record with 16 staggering strikeouts. Laxton limited Wichita State to a mere three hits while retiring 16 of the final 20 Shocker batters, including Wichita State’s last hope, outfielder Carl Hall, who flied weakly to Harry Berrios in right field to conclude the Tigers’ 8-0 triumph. For the second time in three years, an unquenchable desire for victory was LSU’s most prominent characteristic as it catapulted the Tigers to college baseball’s summit. Todd Walker was named the Most Outstanding Player of the Series and was joined on the All-Tournament team by Mike Sirotka, Brett Laxton, Adrian Antonini, Jim Greely and Armando Rios. Walker, the 1993 SEC Player of the Year, recorded a conference-record 102 RBI on the season and surpassed Albert Belle as LSU’s all-time RBI leader with 175. Mike Sirotka ended a fantastic four-year career as LSU’s career leader in innings pitched with 372. He tied Ben McDonald’s school record with 10 complete games, including eight in his final nine starts. Laxton’s dazzling performance in the national title game capped a phenomenal season as the National Freshman of the Year was 12-1 with an SEC-best 1.98 ERA. The 1993 team was expertly guided by Skip Bertman, who for the third time in his 10-year career was named National Coach of the Year. The Tigers completed the year with a 53-171 record, marking LSU’s fifth-straight 50-win season, a feat unmatched by any other school.

Second baseman Warren Morris launched a two-out, two-run homer in the bottom of the ninth inning to lift LSU to a pulsating 9-8 victory over Miami (Fla.) in the 1996 College World Series final. The blast marked the first time in the 50-year history of the CWS that a team had won the national championship with a homer in the bottom of the ninth. As the ball cleared the right-field fence and landed in the third row of the bleachers, Morris raised his arms into the air triumphantly as he rounded first base. Upon reaching home plate, he was mobbed by his jubilant teammates and cheered by 23,905 fans
who had just witnessed the greatest finish in CWS annals. The LSU Tigers, for the third time in six seasons, were the champions of collegiate baseball. Fittingly, it was the only home run of the season for Morris, as the Alexandria, La., native had missed 39 games due to a broken hamate bone in his right hand. He returned to the LSU lineup for the NCAA South II Regional, and he led the Tigers to eight straight victories, with the final win giving his team the national title. LSU became just the seventh school to win three or more CWS titles in the 50-year history of the event, and Skip Bertman became only
the sixth coach to win three or more baseball national championships. LSU also became only the third school to win three national titles in one decade (1991, 1993, 1996). The CWS championship capped a long list of achievements for the 1996 Tigers, including establishing an SEC record with 131 home runs on the season. The Tigers posted a 52-15 record, marking LSU’s sixth 50-win season in eight years and the seventh in school history. LSU recorded a 20-10 SEC mark, sharing the conference title with Florida and Alabama. Shortstop Jason Williams became the SEC career leader in runs

First baseman Eddy Furniss, a first-team all-America selection, set the SEC single-season mark for RBI (103) and the LSU single-season home run record (26). Pitcher Eddie Yarnall was also a first-team all-America choice, as he posted an 11-1 record, including two victories in the College World Series. Furniss and pitcher Chris Demouy were named Academic all-Americans; Furniss had a 3.7 gpa in pre-medicine and Demouy a 3.8 gpa in management. Seven Tigers earned Academic all-SEC recognition, including Furniss, Demouy, Morris (3.5 gpa in zoology), catcher Tim Lanier (3.6 in kinesiology), designated hitter Brad Wilson (3.0 in general studies), catcher Kevin Ward (3.6 in electrical engineering) and pitcher Brian Daugherty (3.1 in kinesiology). For the third time in six seasons, Bertman was named National Coach of the Year, an honor he received from Collegiate Baseball, Baseball America and the American Baseball Coaches Association. LSU was No. 1 in the grandstand as well, as the Tigers led the nation in attendance by drawing a school-record 226,805 fans to Alex Box Stadium. It was a remarkable season, culminated by arguably the greatest moment in LSU athletic history, a decisive swing of the bat by Warren Morris, who magnificently added his name to the list of Tiger legends.

On June 7, 1997, the LSU Fighting Tigers justified the pre-season status bestowed upon them by Baseball America magazine as college baseball’s “Team of the ‘90s” by defeating Southeastern Conference rival Alabama, 13-6, in the championship game of the College World Series. The game was witnessed by a record crowd of 24,401 in Omaha’s Rosenblatt Stadium. LSU won its fourth NCAA championship of the 1990s (1991, 1993, 1996, 1997), and the Tigers became the first team to win back-toback titles since Stanford accomplished the feat
in 1987-88. Head coach Skip Bertman joined Rod Dedeaux of Southern California as the only coaches to win four College World Series championships. Bertman was named the 1997 National Coach of the Year, receiving that designation for the fifth time in his storied 14-year career. Ironically, a month before the title match, the Crimson Tide humiliated the Tigers, 28-2, the worst loss in LSU’s 104-year baseball history. But in the CWS championship contest, the Tigers exploded to a 9-0 lead after two innings and never looked back. LSU won its
eighth straight CWS game over two seasons, and the Tigers improved their mark in NCAA (regional and CWS) tournament championship games to a phenomenal 16-0. Prior to the win over Alabama, the Tigers posted CWS victories over Rice (5-4) and Stanford (10-5 and 13-9). LSU batted .328 (45-for-137) in the Series with seven doubles and 10 home runs. The Tigers averaged better than 10 runs per game in the CWS, outscoring their opponents, 41-24. The championship game completed a 57-13 campaign for Skip Bertman and his club, as the Tigers established the

Southeastern Conference record for most victories in a season. LSU, which returned only two starting position players from its 1996 national championship club, also claimed the ‘97 SEC championship, the school’s sixth conference crown of the 1990s. LSU roared to a blistering 19-0 start, establishing the SEC mark for most consecutive victories. The Tigers, who began the season ranked No. 8 (Collegiate Baseball) and No. 13 (Baseball America) in the pre-season polls, ascended to No. 1 by March 10, holding that position for 10 consecutive weeks. After claiming the SEC title, LSU played host to the NCAA South I Regional, where the Tigers, after suffering a thirdround loss to South Alabama, battled back to claim their ninth CWS berth in 12 seasons. LSU posted a thrilling 14-7, 11-inning victory over Long Beach State in an elimination game to force a rematch with South Alabama in the regional championship round. Needing two victories over USA, the Tigers launched eight homers in a doubleheader sweep en route to the regional title. LSU hit .339 (82-for242) in its six regional games, outscoring the opposition 76-29 while unloading 20 home runs. Third baseman Trey McClure was named the regional’s Most Outstanding Player, as he hit .435 (10-for-23) with five doubles, two homers and 10 RBI. LSU completed the year with an NCAA-record 188 home runs, breaking the previous mark of 161 homers set by Brigham Young in 1988. The Tigers homered at least once in all 70 of their games.
All-American junior shortstop Brandon Larson enjoyed a remarkable season, batting .381 on the year with 40 homers and 118 RBI. He established SEC single-season records for homers, RBI and total bases (250), and he became just the fourth player in NCAA history to collect 40 or more homers in a season. Patrick Coogan (14-3, 4.63 ERA, 144 K), a junior righthander, earned first-team all-America honors, while first baseman Eddy Furniss (.378, 17 HR, 77 RBI) was a third-team all-America selection. Second baseman Blair Barbier (.353, 15 HR, 57 RBI) earned Freshman all-America recognition. Also enjoying outstanding campaigns were junior center fielder Mike Koerner (.353, 22 HR, 69 RBI), senior right fielder Tom Bernhardt (.322, 17 HR, 49 RBI) and Doug Thompson (12-3, 4.63 ERA, 158 K), a junior right-hander who earned the victory in the national championship game. The ‘97 Tigers magnificently maintained LSU’s reign as the “Team of the ‘90s.” Not since Southern California won five straight national titles in the 1970s was one school so dominant in the college baseball landscape.

Trailing Stanford 5-2 with one out in the bottom of the eighth inning of the 2000 national championship game, the LSU Tigers appeared to have little hope, especially with Cardinal ace Justin Wayne on the mound. Wayne had subdued LSU’s bats, allowing no hits while recording seven strikeouts in 3.1 relief innings. In fact, Wayne and Stanford starter Jason Young had combined to hold the Tigers hitless since the second inning, when left field Jeremy Witten singled during a two-run LSU rally. LSU’s only highlight after the second inning had come on defense,
when right fielder Ray Wright robbed Stanford’s Edmund Muth of a thirdinning, two-run homer by leaping above the wall to make a sensational catch. Thus, when LSU team captain Blair Barbier stepped to the plate with one out in the eighth, everything pointed toward a Stanford victory celebration. After all, the Cardinal were just five outs away from a national championship with arguably the best pitcher in the country on the mound. Barbier, undaunted, envisioned a much different scenario. Prior to the inning, he had gathered his teammates in the dugout, imploring
them to remain focused, asking them, “DO YOU BELIEVE?” He hoped his words would spark a positive reaction, yet he knew they would be meaningless should he fail in this at-bat, likely the final at-bat of the senior third baseman’s brilliant college career. So, Barbier stood in against Wayne and battled for his team’s survival. He stubbornly fouled off several twostrike offerings, before finally ripping a line drive over the left field wall of Rosenblatt Stadium. Barbier’s solo shot was his third homer of the College World Series, and the Tigers had life, now down by two runs.

The Tigers posted a 52-17 record, including a 13-0 post-season mark.
Wally Pontiff then drew a walk from Wayne, but the Stanford right-hander retired center fielder Cedrick Harris on a fly ball to right field for the second out. Witten, who was hitting just .200 (3-for-15) in the CWS, would be Wayne’s next challenge. In his only other at-bat against Wayne, Witten, a fifth-year senior, fanned on just three pitches. And, in this at-bat, Witten again quickly fell behind in the count. Knowing that this was perhaps the final at-bat of his college career, indeed the final at-bat of his entire baseball career, Witten would not succumb to Wayne’s darting slider. Instead, he launched a soaring liner into the left-center field seats, just out of the reach of Cardinal left fielder Andy Topham. The Rosenblatt Stadium crowd of over 24,000 erupted as Witten triumphantly rounded the bases, celebrating just his seventh homer of the season. LSU 5, Stanford 5 . . . and the drama was just beginning. Wayne retired Wright on a liner to left to end the eighth inning, but Stanford could not recover its lost momentum. LSU right-hander Trey Hodges, who had kept the Tigers in the game with three scoreless relief innings, easily retired the Cardinal in the top of the ninth, setting the stage for the game’s final act. LSU shortstop Ryan Theriot grounded Wayne’s first pitch of the ninth into left field to place the winning run on first base. Head coach Skip Bertman, electing not to bunt Theriot down to second base, allowed second baseman Mike Fontenot to swing away. Fontenot skillfully drew a full-count walk from Wayne, placing the Tigers’ destiny in the potent bat of catcher Brad Cresse. Cresse, like Barbier and Witten before him, was standing at the plate for the final time in an LSU uniform. The nation’s leader in home runs (30) and RBI (105), the senior was just 1-for-12 in the College World Series. He had struck out in his two previous at-bats against Wayne, who desperately needed a double play to work his way out of the jam. As he had in his first two encounters with Cresse, Wayne opened with his devastating slider. Strike one. Wayne fired the slider again, but this time Cresse smashed it, sending the ball sharply into left field. Theriot raced around third base as Topham picked up the ball and heaved it toward home plate. But, the throw was up the line and Theriot slid safely across the plate as his teammates burst from the third-base dugout to embrace him. The wave of jubilant Tigers then moved to the infield, engulfing Cresse at first base. LSU 6, Stanford 5. The Tigers had secured the school’s fifth NCAA title since 1991 with a courageous effort, scoring four runs in their final two at-bats to erase a three-run deficit. Blair Barbier’s eighth-inning challenge to his teammates was answered in resounding fashion. The 2000 LSU Tigers, without question, did believe.
Team captain Blair Barbier displays the NCAA Championship trophy to the throng of fans that welcomed home the Tigers.

Preview
LSU starter Louis Coleman allows only three runs in eight innings, and the top-ranked Tigers complete a two-game NCAA Super Regional sweep of No. 6 Rice with a 5-3 victory in Alex Box Stadium to advance to the College World Series for the 15th time in school history. A record crowd of 9,651 is on hand to watch the Tigers advance to Omaha in their inaugural season at the new stadium.Coleman earns his fourth straight win as the SEC Pitcher of the Year allows nine hits and strikes out five. Freshman closer Matty Ott secured the victory with his 16th save of the season. Third baseman Derek Helenihi leads the Tigers at the plate with two hits including a solo homer - and two RBI.

LSU shortstop Austin Nola delivers a game-winning RBI single in the top of the 10th inning to break a 2-2 tie and lead the second-ranked Tigers past Baylor, 3-2, in the semifinal round of the NCAA Baton Rouge Regional. LSU starter Anthony Ranaudo records the victory with a magnificent performance as the right-hander limits Baylor to only three hits and one earned run in a career-high nine innings with 14 strikeouts. Right-hander Matty Ott finishes off the Bears with a perfect 10th inning to register his school-record 15th save of the season. The Tigers defeat Minnesota the next day to win the first NCAA Regional held in the New Alex Box Stadium.
June 8-9, 2008
Facing elimination in Game 2 of the Super Regional versus UC Irvine, the Tigers erupt for seven runs in their final two at-bats to rally for a 9-7 victory. Sean Ochinko’s base hit provides the go-ahead run in a five-run ninth inning, and Louis Coleman fires three scoreless innings to secure the win. In Game 3 the next day -- before an Alex Box Stadium record crowd of 8,173 -- the Tigers explode for six runs in the first inning and cruise to a 21-7 triumph. LSU collects 24 hits, including seven home runs, to advance to the College World Series for the 14th time in school history.
June 13, 2004
Lane Mestepey fires a masterful five-hit shutout in Game 2 of a Super Regional series against Texas A&M. Will Harris’ ninth-inning homer clinches LSU’s 4-0 triumph and sends the Tigers to the College World Series for the second straight season.
June 7-8, 2003
LSU blasts Baylor 20-5, using an 11-run sixth inning highlighted by Clay Harris’ grand slam to reach its 12th College World Series. The Tigers faced elimination a day earlier after Baylor captured the first contest in the best-of-three set. Harris and Ivan Naccarata belted back-toback homers to lead off the eighth inning to lift LSU over Baylor, 6-5, to set up the rubber match.
LSU celebrates its 2009 Super Regional win over Rice.
May 25, 1997
A classic five-hour marathon comes to an end as LSU outlasts Long Beach State by scoring seven runs in the 11th inning for a 14-7 victory. One day later, the Tigers avenge their second round loss to South Alabama by sweeping the Jaguars, 14-4 and 15-4, before defending its national championship in Omaha.
May 26, 1996
June 1, 2003
Jon Zeringue’s one-out, walk-off home run in the bottom of the 11th sends LSU to the super regional round as the Tigers defeat a pesky UNC-Wilmington club, 9-8. Despite defeat, UNC-W becomes the first opposing team to make a congratulatory lap around the field following the game.
June 2, 2002
LSU comes through the loser’s bracket to defeat UL-Lafayette twice by identical 12-2 scores to win its seventh consecutive regional championship. The Tigers are the only regional winner of 2002 to come through the loser’s bracket to win twice on the final day.
May 30-31, 1999
Facing a seven-run deficit and in danger of being eliminated, LSU rallies to take a 12-10 lead it would not relinquish against East Carolina to force a second championship game. Kurt Ainsworth gets an extra day of rest thanks to rain, which forces the second contest to be moved to Monday. Ainsworth blanks the Pirates, 9-0, hurling the Tigers to a super regional matchup with SEC foe Alabama.
In one of the largest hit outputs in school history, LSU uses 18 runs on 13 hits in the seventh inning of the South II Regional championship game to rout Georgia Tech, 29-13. The Tigers wear new gold jerseys during the regional and throughout the 1996 College World Series.
May 29, 1994
LSU holds on to a 12-10 win over Southern Cal in the South Regional final. Former Trojan and current Minnesota Twins star Jacque Jones smashes three homers in defeat.
May 28, 1990
Rich Cordani’s dramatic two-run blast in the seventh inning lifts LSU to a thrilling 7-6 South Regional championship game win over Southern California.
May 28, 1989
LSU tags UL-Monroe starter and current Milwaukee Brewer star Ben Sheets, opening the Baton Rouge Regional with a convincing 11-4 victory over the Indians.
LSU c ompletes perhaps its most improbable journey in the program’s history to reach its third College World Series. The Tigers win five of six games at the 1989 Central Regional in College Station, Texas. LSU shocks top-ranked Texas A&M with two wins on the tournament’s final day -- including a 5-4, 11-inning victory in the championship game. Ben McDonald earns the win in seven innings of work in the first game and then comes back to earn a save in the clincher. All four LSU pitchers in the final game -- Russ Springer, Paul Byrd, Curtis Leskanic and Ben McDonald -- reach the Major Leagues. Texas A&M had amassed 58 wins to just five losses and was led by Chuck Knoblach. The 58 wins still stands as an Aggie record.
May 23, 1998
May 25, 1986
May 28, 1999
LSU falls behind Cal State Fullerton, 7-0 through two innings, but Cedrick Harris’ two-run double in the eighth caps a four-run inning to complete a comeback as the Tigers earn a 13-11 victory. LSU routs the Titans 14-3 the next day to reach Omaha.
Albert Belle smashes two, two-run homers in the South I Regional championship game, leading the Tigers to their first College World Series with a 7-6 win over Tulane at Alex Box Stadium. Belle was named tournament MVP for his efforts.

coaches Review History records lsu
Before arriving at NMSU in 2004, Dr. Martin served for six years as vice president for agriculture and natural resources at the University of Florida, leading the university’s Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences. He was elevated to senior vice president of the University of Florida shortly before being selected as NMSU’s president. Previously, he was vice president for agricultural policy and the dean of the College of Agricultural, Food and Environmental Sciences at the University of Minnesota. He began his academic career at Oregon State University as a faculty member in the Department of Agricultural and Resource Economics. An academic leader dedicated to the land-grant mission, Dr. Martin is recognized as a strong voice for higher education. In 2007, he received the Justin Smith Morrill Memorial Award, named after the author of the bill creating land-grant universities, which honors outstanding service on behalf of the land-grant mission. Only six individuals have been designated to receive this award since it was first given in 1980. For his leadership in improving the quality of life for New Mexico citizens and future generations, he was awarded the 2008 Distinguished Leadership Award by Leadership New Mexico. Other recent awards include his recognition as a powerbroker by The New Mexico Business Weekly in 2006, being named Outstanding Alumnus of Minnesota State University Mankato in 2006, and receiving the NMSU Social Justice Award in 2005. Dr. Martin is involved in a wide array of professional and community organizations and activities. An active scholar, Dr. Martin has authored numerous book chapters and articles for academic journals, trade publications, and the popular press and recently published pieces for The Chronicle of Higher Education and University Business. Some of his philosophy is summed up in the following quote: “It is the tradition of landgrant universities to be non-traditional,” written as part of a 2001 article titled “The Land-Grant University in the 21st Century,” published in the Journal of Agricultural and Applied Economics. He traced the history of the land-grant movement from the mid-1800s and concluded that “the fundamental land-grant principles of accessibility, practical as well as classical education, research and discovery in the public interest, and connectedness to all the people remain powerful and profound.” A native of Crosby, Minn., Dr. Martin earned a bachelor’s degree in business and economics and a master’s degree in economics at Mankato State College (Minnesota State University) in Minnesota. He received his Ph.D. in applied economics from the University of Minnesota in 1977. Dr. Martin and his wife, Jan, have two children, both adopted from South Korea. Amanda, a graduate of the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire, is a graphic artist in Saint Paul, Minn. Sam, who holds a bachelor’s degree from the University of Minnesota and a master’s from Sarah Lawrence College, is a genetics counselor at Beth Israel Hospital in New York City.
Dr. Michael V. Martin speaks at the opening of the New Alex Box Stadium on February 20, 2009.
Dydia DeLyser Faculty Athletics Representative
Dydia DeLyser, an associate professor in the Department of Geography and Anthropology, serves in her fourth year as LSU’s Faculty Athletics Representative. DeLyser, a native of Santa Monica, Calif., earned her bachelor’s degree in 1992 from UCLA, and her master’s and doctoral degrees from Syracuse University (in 1996 and 1998). DeLyser arrived at LSU in August 1998 as an Instructor before becoming an assistant professor one year later. She was promoted to associate professor with tenure in August 2005. DeLyser is a cultural-historical geographer. Her research has been both ethnographic and historical, and most of it questions how different built landscapes can help make the past meaningful in the present. Much of her published research has focused on two different studies. One was a many-year ethnographic study of a ghost town in California (Bodie State Historic Park) where she examined how images and ideas about the American mythic West became meaningful to the tourists who
188
visited the town. The second was an historical study that examined a 19th century novel (Ramona) and how it changed the way people understood (and still understand) southern California’s past. Her current research concerns early women aviators and how they used their practices of flying to advance feminism in the post-suffrage era. DeLyser teaches graduate courses in cultural geography, qualitative research, and academic and professional writing. She has also taught undergraduate courses in cultural, and urban geography, and an introductory world-regional geography course. DeLyser is a first-generation American -- her parents were Dutch immigrants and English is her second language. She also has language abilities in Russian and Spanish. DeLyser’s hobbies include driving/riding antique cars and motorcycles. She is also a licensed pilot and co-owns a Citabria, which is a two-place aerobatic airplane.

LSU coach Paul Mainieri and the Tigers accept the 2009 SEC regular-season championship trophy from league commissioner Mike Slive.
The Southeastern Conference Setting the Standard for Intercollegiate Athletics in Baseball The Southeastern Conference, with its storied 76-year history of athletic achievements and academic excellence, has built perhaps the greatest tradition of intercollegiate competition in baseball of any league in the country since its inception in 1933. The SEC posted another tremendous season in 2009 as the conference had eight teams earn selection to NCAA postseason play with Arkansas and LSU advancing to the College World Series. A SEC squad has now appeared in the College World Series 24 of the last 25 years. LSU advanced to and won the National Championship Series, marking the fifth time since 2000 an SEC team played for the national championship in Omaha. LSU won the SEC tournament title over Vanderbilt. LSU also won the SEC regular-season title with a 20-10 conference record, sharing the honor with Ole Miss.
Notes • The SEC has sent 38 teams to the College World Series since 1990. That was accomplished despite no SEC teams making the field in 1992. LSU has been to Omaha 12 times, Georgia five times and Florida and Mississippi State four times, while Alabama, South Carolina and Tennessee have been three times each. Auburn has been once, while Arkansas advanced in 2004 and 2009. • SEC teams have won seven of the last 20 national championships, with LSU winning six (1991, 1993, 1996, 1997, 2000, 2009) and Georgia claiming the 1990 title. The SEC has finished runner up four times in that time, 1997, 2002, 2005 and 2008.
The Southeastern Conference boasts 11 former National Players of the Year (Vanderbilt’s David Price won in 2007), ten Baseball America Coach of the Year and eight Collegiate Baseball Coach of the Year honors. 143 student-athletes have been named first-team AllAmerican, three of which came in 2009. Four SEC players were taken in the first round of the 2009 Major League Baseball Amateur Draft, held Tuesday in New York City, including the seventh pick overall. Vanderbilt’s Mike Minor was picked seventh by the Atlanta Braves. Jared Mitchell of LSU was selected 23rd by the Chicago White Sox. Pedro Alvarez was the second overall pick of the draft by the Pittsburgh Pirates in 2008. Vanderbilt’s David Price was the first overall pick in 2007, while Luke Hochevar of Tennessee was first overall in 2006. With those four selections this year, the SEC has
• S EC teams are 73-66 since 1990 in Omaha, a 52.5 winning percentage. Not counting games against each other, the SEC has a 56-50 record in the CWS since 1990, a 52.8 winning percentage. • The SEC has played 33 games in the “Final Four” of the College World Series since 1990, an average of over 1.5 per year. Only five times, 1992,1994, 2003, 2006 and 2007 has the SEC failed to get a team to the “Final Four” of the CWS. • The SEC has averaged nearly eight games played per year in the College World Series since 1990. In 2004, 12 of the 15 games played in Omaha involved a SEC team. In 1997, the SEC had a team in 13 of the 14 games played in the CWS. Since 1990, an SEC team played in 122 of the 285 games played in the College World Series, an amazing 42.8 percent of games.
now had a first round selection in each year since 1991 and 80 total in the first round during that time. The SEC drew a record of nearly 1.9 million fans to its on-campus ballparks in 2009, the fourth year in a row to draw over 1.6 million. Seven SEC teams drew in excess of 100,000 fans to their parks in 2009. The SEC averaged a record 4,689 fans per game in 2009, the third straight year to exceed the 4,000 mark. South Carolina and LSU both opened new parks in 2009, while Ole Miss’ recent expansion took capacity over 10,000. Four teams, all in the SEC West, can now house crowds of over 10,000. The SEC Baseball Tournament drew 86,048 fans, besting the attendance of three previous events this decade.
• The SEC has sent nine of its 12 schools to the College World Series since 1990 - Alabama, Arkansas, Auburn, Florida, Georgia, LSU, Mississippi State, South Carolina and Tennessee. Ole Miss has played in three Super Regional finals the last five seasons. • Since 1990, 130 SEC squads have been invited to the NCAA Tournament, an average nearly seven per season. The SEC set yet another NCAA record in 2004, 2005 and 2008 with nine teams earning postseason births. The SEC also had a NCAA-record five teams earn regional host sites in 2004 and 2006. • The SEC has had an NCAA-high 10 different teams compete in the 57-year history of the College World Series. In those appearances, the conference has registered a 95-107 record, a 47.0 winning percentage.
2010 LSU baseball official yearbook
• Since 1990, 24 SEC squads have posted 50+ win seasons, while 96 have won 40+ games in a season, including five teams in 2009. • The SEC posted a 253-91 record against non-conference foes in 2009, a 73.5 winning percentage. Since 1990, the SEC has accumulated a 4798-1824-4 record against non-conference teams, a 72.4 winning percentage. • SEC teams have also been strong in the polls. Since 1990, 93 conference teams have appeared in the final Baseball America poll, 102 in the final Collegiate Baseball poll and, since 1992, 92 in the final ESPN Coaches poll. Seven SEC squads appeared in at least one of the final polls in 2009, with eight in the Top 30.

The SEC office is located in Birmingham, Ala. Throughout its 76-year history, the Southeastern Conference has been a leader in the integration of athletic competition and higher education. Since its formation in 1933, the SEC has achieved both stature and stability by designating governing/voting power to the presidents of the member institutions. They have determined the policies of the conference and through the years this involvement has been the principal source of strength in the evolution of the SEC. Intercollegiate athletics encountered many challenges in the 1990s and again the SEC provided guidance. In 1993, the member institutions adopted The Principles of Gender Equity. Committed to increasing the quantity and quality of women’s athletic opportunities, each school provides at least two more women’s intercollegiate programs than the number of men’s. Faced with the task of conference realignment after competing with 10 members since 1966, the SEC welcomed the University of Arkansas and the University of South Carolina in 1991. SEC schools began athletic competition with one another almost 100 years ago as members of the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association. Seven institutions (Alabama, Auburn, Georgia, Georgia Tech, North Carolina, Sewanee and Vanderbilt) attended the SIAA organizational meeting of faculty representatives in Atlanta in 1894. Basketball moved quickly to the South as Vanderbilt was playing at the Nashville YMCA in 1893, just two years after Dr. James Naismith originated the game at Springfield (Mass.) College. Basketball became an intercollegiate sport in 1901 and in 1908 Vanderbilt was meeting Columbia and Yale intersectionally.
The seven-member SIAA expanded to 19 institutions in 1895 and by 1920 there were 30 members. The larger schools reorganized as the Southern Conference in 1920. Despite an original limit of 16, the membership grew to 23 by 1928. The 13 members west and south of the Appalachian Mountains reorganized as the Southeastern Conference at the annual SC meeting in 1932. The 10 coast members remained in the Southern Conference. Charter members of the new conference were: Alabama, Auburn, Florida, Georgia, Georgia Tech, Kentucky, LSU, Mississippi, Mississippi State, Sewanee, Tennessee, Tulane and Vanderbilt. (Sewanee withdrew in 1940, Georgia Tech in 1964 and Tulane in 1966). The first SEC champions were crowned in 1933 in four sports (baseball, basketball, football and outdoor track). The league’s inaugural championship event was a basketball tournament in Atlanta in 1933. Records show the first men’s team title for cross-country was awarded in 1935, while golf and swimming were added in 1937. The league later began hosting championships in tennis (1953) and indoor track (1957). In the 1979-80 academic year SEC championships for women were recognized in basketball, tennis and volleyball. The following year golf, gymnastics, swimming and track and field were added. The administration of women’s athletics officially came under the auspices of the conference office in 1984. The SEC currently regulates nine men’s sports and 11 women’s sports: Men—baseball, basketball, football, golf, swimming, tennis and track (cross country, indoor and outdoor). Women—basketball, golf, gymnastics, soccer, softball, swimming, tennis, track (cross country, indoor and outdoor) and volleyball.
SEC Commissioner
Michael L. Slive
190
The office of the commissioner was formed in 1940 in Jackson due to the great amount of detail work developing, especially in recruiting and eligibility. Former Mississippi Governor Martin S. Conner took office as commissioner Aug. 21, 1940. Conner later became ill and the secretary of the conference, Dean N.W. Dougherty of Tennessee, served as acting commissioner during the fall of 1946. The office moved to Birmingham with the appointing of Bernie H. Moore as the second full-time commissioner on Feb. 21, 1948. Moore, a former LSU coach, guided the SEC to national respect in his 18-year tenure. A.M. (Tonto) Coleman succeeded Moore upon his retirement April 1, 1966. The Alabama native, who was reared in Texas and experienced in athletic coaching and administration, served six and a half years. Dr. H. Boyd McWhorter, then Dean of Arts and Sciences at Georgia, secretary of the league since 1967, accepted the position upon the retirement of Coleman Aug. 1, 1972. Under his leadership the SEC experienced unparalleled growth. In McWhorter’s first

year the SEC distributed $1.57 million and 14 years later (1986), the league distributed $15 million in revenue to the member institutions. Dr. Harvey W. Schiller, an Air Force colonel and faculty chair at the U. S. Air Force Academy, followed McWhorter upon retirement, taking office Sept. 15, 1986. Under his guidance the SEC established itself as a leader in the areas of athletic scholarship and marketing. Roy F. Kramer succeeded Schiller on Jan. 10, 1990. Kramer, who has served on numerous NCAA committees, joined the league office after spending 12 years as athletic director at Vanderbilt. Kramer held the office of Commissioner for more than 12 years before retiring in the summer of 2002. Michael L. Slive, who served as Commissioner of Conference USA for seven years, was appointed the seventh Commissioner of the Southeastern Conference on July 2, 2002.

The Jack and Priscilla Andonie Museum is home to LSU’s athletics history. The museum, located at the Lod Cook Alumni Center on LSU’s campus, is full of artifacts and memorabilia from the Andonie’s personal collection gathered by the couple over the past three decades. The museum features more than 115 precious pieces of LSU memorabilia. Among these are the 1926 program of the dedication of the campus; the 1936 Sugar Bowl program signed by Governor Oscar K. Allen; Chinese Bandits’ hats, jerseys and game ball of the 1958 National Champions; Shaquille O’Neal’s and Pete Maravich’s jerseys and game shoes; coach Skip Bertman’s championship game uniform; the Tiger Band’s national championship trophy; coach Dale Brown’s favorite game tie; coach Nick Saban’s Sugar Bowl headphones; and the 2003 football national championship signed game ball. Twenty-four wall mounted TVs simultaneously broadcast music videos of the Tiger Band, Cheerleaders, Golden Girls, significant LSU Sports moments, and campus scenes from the 1930s, 40s and 50s. These videos are synched to the wonderful music of the LSU Band and were created exclusively for the Andonie Museum. A movie screen is installed across the corridor entrance displaying highlights of the 2003 and 2007 championship football seasons. Twenty-two huge purple and gold banners add bursts of color to the museum’s wall displays. These banners provide information about legendary coaches Paul Dietzel and Charles McClendon. The banners also pay tribute to LSU’s SEC and national championship teams.

Mike THE TIGER 1936-1956
History of Mike Few mascots in the country are as admired as Mike the Tiger. LSU’s live Bengal mascot serves as the graphic image of all LSU athletic teams. The school has had six mascots, with the most recent, Mike VI, taking over the reign prior to the 2007 national championship football season. LSU veterinarian Dr. David Baker began the search for the young tiger after his predecessor, Mike V, died in May 2007 of renal failure at the age of 17. The two-year-old Bengal/Siberian mix, formerly known as “Roscoe,” was donated to LSU by Great Cats of Idaville, Ind., a nonprofit sanctuary and rescue facility for big cats and other large carnivores. Mike’s ride through Tiger Stadium before home games in a cage topped by the LSU cheerleaders is a school tradition. Before entering the stadium, his cage on wheels is parked next to the opponent’s locker room in the southeast end of the stadium. Opposing players must make their way past Mike’s cage to reach their locker room.
Tradition dictates that the Tigers will score a touchdown for every growl issued by Mike before a football game. For many years, Mike was prompted to roar by pounding on the cage. Objections of cruel punishment brought about the use of recorded growls to play to the crowd before the games. That practice was discontinued shortly afterward and today Mike participates in the pregame tradition without provocation. In the mid-1980’s, pranksters cut the locks on Mike IV’s cage and freed him in the early-morning hours just days before the annual LSU-Tulane clash. Mike roamed free, playfully knocking down several small pine trees in the area, before being trapped in the Bernie Moore Track Stadium where police used tranquilizer guns to capture and return the Bengal Tiger to his home. The incident was reminiscent of a kidnapping of Mike I many years ago by Tulane students before a Tiger-Green Wave battle.
Mike I
The original Mike was purchased from the Little Rock Zoo in 1936 for $750, with money contributed by the student body. Originally known as “Sheik” at the time of his purchase, his name was changed to Mike to honor Mike Chambers who served as LSU’s athletic trainer when the first mascot was purchased. The first Mike was housed in the Baton Rouge Zoo for one year before a permanent home was constructed near Tiger Stadium. Mike I reigned for 20 years before dying of pneumonia. 1956-1958
Mike II
The second Mike served a brief reign, lasting only through the 1957 season before dying of pneumonia in the spring of 1958. He was born at the Audubon Zoo in New Orleans and came to LSU on Sept. 28, 1956. The young tiger was held overnight in Tiger Stadium and unveiled Sept. 29, the opening day of the football season. 1958-1976
Mike III
Just in time for the 1958 national championship season, Mike III was purchased from the Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle, Wash., following a “national search” by then-athletic director Jim Corbett. The student body contributed $1,500 for the purchase of the tiger. Mike III served as mascot for 18 seasons, dying after the only losing season of his reign, as LSU posted a 5-6 record in 1975. 1976‑1990
Mike IV
Mike IV reigned over Tiger athletics for 14 years after being donated to the school by August A. Busch III from the Dark Continent Amusement Park in Tampa, Fla, on Aug. 29, 1976. Born on May 15, 1974, Mike’s age and health were determining factors in his retirement to the Baton Rouge Zoo in 1990. Mike IV died of old age in March of 1995 at the age of 21. 1990-2007
Mike V
Mike V was donated by Dr. Thomas and Caroline Atchison of the Animal House Zoological Park in Moulton, Ala. Dr. Sheldon Bivin of the LSU School of Veterinary Medicine traveled to Alabama and brought the baby tiger back to Baton Rouge. Born Oct. 18, 1989, the new tiger was introduced to LSU fans at a basketball game against Alabama in February of 1990. He officially began his reign on April 30, 1990, when he was moved into the tiger habitat across from Tiger Stadium. Mike V died on May 18, 2007, at the age of 17.
Mike’s Habitat In 2005, a new environment (above) was created for Mike that is 15,000 square feet in size with lush planting, a large live oak tree, a beautiful waterfall and a stream evolving from a rocky backdrop overflowing with plants and trees. The habitat has, as a backdrop, an Italianate tower - a campanile - that creates a visual bridge to the Italianate architectural vernacular that is the underpinning of the image of the entire beautiful LSU campus. This spectacular new habitat features state-of-the-art technologies, research, conservation and husbandry programs, as well as educational, interpretive and recreational activities. It is, in essence, one of the largest and finest Tiger habitats in the United States.

Mike VI
Mike VI arrived in Baton Rouge on Aug. 25, 2007, thanks to the donation by Great Cats of Idaville, Ind. He was officially designated as the successor to Mike V on Sept. 8, when LSU played host to Virginia Tech. Six days later, on Sept. 14, 2007, a ceremony was held to honor Mike V and dedicate the habitat to Mike VI. The two-year-old Bengal/Siberian mix, formerly known as “Roscoe,” reigned over a football national title in his first year.

Vice Chancellor and Director of Athletics
Joe Alleva
LSU Vice-Chancellor/Director of Athletics
tigers
Joe Alleva is in his second year as LSU’s Director of Athletics after being hired to lead one of the nation’s most powerful athletic programs on April 4, 2008. Alleva joined LSU after 10 years of outstanding leadership as the director of athletics at Duke University. He officially took over at LSU on July 1, 2008.
coaches Review History records lsu
Under Alleva’s guidance in 2008-09, LSU reached new heights in terms of athletic success while continuing to be recognized as one of the top enterprises in college athletics. The LSU Board of Supervisors approved a promotion on August 28, 2009, expanding his role to the academic side of the university. Alleva accepted the position of LSU Vice-Chancellor while still continuing his role as Director of Athletics. A veteran leader in college athletics, Alleva is dedicated to athletic and academic excellence. He is committed to providing the opportunities and the resources necessary for student-athletes to excel in competition, in the classroom and in the community. Alleva, 56, is well-respected for sustaining high standards of excellence and integrity in athletic programs, hiring the finest coaches in the country and the high level of success achieved by student-athletes. Under Alleva’s direction, all 20 LSU sports competed in NCAA post-season play for the first time in school history, and it culminated with the baseball team winning the national championship. In addition, six teams finished in the top 10 nationally. The Tigers hold claim to being the only school in the Southeastern Conference to participate in a bowl game and the men’s and women’s NCAA basketball tournaments during 2008-09. Furthermore, LSU student-athletes volunteered a total of 2,360 hours for community service projects. LSU earned a ninth place ranking in the 2009 Learfield Director’s Cup, which measures the overall athletic success for institutions across the country. LSU was second only to Florida in the Director’s Cup among SEC institutions as the Tigers accumulated points in 18 of a possible 20 categories in the standings, also a first for the school. Upon being hired at LSU, Alleva immediately made an impact by hiring Trent Johnson to lead the men’s basketball program. Johnson, the 2009 SEC Coach of the Year, wasted little time in turning the Tigers into a winner as LSU claimed the 2009 SEC regular season title and reached the second round of the NCAA Tournament. LSU also had top 10 national finishes in gymnastics, men’s and women’s indoor track and field and men’s and women’s outdoor track and field. Thirteen of LSU’s 20 sports finished the year ranked among the top 25 in the nation. The Tiger football team capped their season with a record ninth-straight bowl appearance as LSU closed out 2008 with a 38-3 win over 14th-ranked Georgia Tech in the Chick-fil-A Bowl. During the offseason, Alleva helped secure the funding necessary for the addition of a stateof-the-art artificial turf practice field, which compliments the surface the Tigers have in their indoor practice facility. The addition of the outdoor artificial turf field gives the LSU football program one of the nation’s finest all-around facilities.

Not only did LSU teams set records but so did the fans as over 1.5 million fans filled venues on the LSU campus. LSU set the school record for overall attendance in the sports of football, baseball, and softball. Alleva oversaw the grand opening of two of the premier baseball and softball facilities in college athletics, Alex Box Stadium and Tiger Park. LSU also broke ground on a basketball practice facility that will house both the men’s and women’s basketball teams starting in December of this year. The new basketball practice facility will feature two full length courts as well as locker rooms and other amenities for
both squads. In addition, LSU opened a new gift center for its fans – the LSU SportsShop. The LSU SportsShop, a spectacular, free-standing facility that features the latest in LSU apparel and merchandise, is located adjacent to Mike’s Habitat. Under Alleva’s guidance, LSU has one of the most lucrative apparel and shoe contracts with Nike while also having one of the nation’s most attractive multi-media rights contracts with CBS Collegiate Sports Properties. LSU athletic budget is now approaching $85 million, which allows the university to compete at the highest level in the nation. Alleva has a long-term vision for continued improvements to LSU’s athletic facilities in order to ensure that the Tigers are among the best in the country well into the 21st Century. One of his top priorities is the enhancement of Tiger Stadium and making Tiger Stadium and the North Stadium Drive corridor a showplace for the university. Alleva’s innovative plan is to make a plaza area
2010 LSU baseball official yearbook
between the Maravich Assembly Center and Tiger Stadium that would recognize LSU’s national championship teams and distinguished alumni. This special area, along with Mike’s Habitat, and the LSU SportsShop, would become the focal point for visitors to campus. Alleva is also pursuing a major renovation to the golf course at the University Club and is developing plans for a new gymnastics practice facility, indoor tennis center and improved soccer and track facilities. “Joe Alleva brings a wealth of experience and accomplishment to LSU,” LSU President John Lombardi said of hiring Alleva. “I’m confident we’ve found a new leader for LSU athletics who exemplifies the vision and integrity needed to lead our sports programs to new heights, a champion of student athletes who believes in the highest standards of competition both on the field and in the classroom.” Alleva’s impressive tenure as director of athletics at Duke propelled the university into the ranks of America’s top all-around collegiate programs. Among his outstanding list of accomplishments includes the greatest 10-year period in Duke athletics, winning more ACC and NCAA championships than in any other decade in school history. Also, his fundraising reached extensive heights providing new facilities or renovations for all 26 sports at Duke, which enhanced the experience for every student-athlete. Alleva is active on the national collegiate athletics scene, having served on the Football Bowl Certification Committee. He sat on several Atlantic Coast Conference committees and served on the NCAA Division I Championships/Competition Cabinet. Alleva majored in Finance at Lehigh University and received his bachelor’s degree in 1975. While at Lehigh, Alleva was the quarterback of the football team and team captain in 1974. Alleva also played on the Lehigh baseball team. He served as a graduate assistant football coach and earned an MBA in 1976. Alleva began his 32-year career at Duke University in 1976. He spent 28 years in the athletic administration prior to becoming director of athletics in 1998. Alleva played a key role in Durham’s community sports scene. He started Little League Baseball in Durham over 20 years ago, and also began the American Legion baseball program Alleva is a member of the North Carolina American Legion Hall of Fame, Suffern High School Hall of Fame and the Rockland County Hall of Fame. Alleva and his wife, Annie, have three children, J.D., Jeff, and Jenny.

This new habitat provides Mike with a 15,000-square foot environment with lush planting, a beautiful waterfall and a stream evolving from a rocky backdrop overflowing with plants and trees.
