GWU SOCCER FACILITIES The soccer field, formerly known as Varsity Field, was renamed the Greene-Harbison Field in 2007, as it has received many upgrades since the fields inception in 1990. Prior to the 2007 season, a permanent press box was built (left) with a video purch on top for both the home and visiting teams to film the games. Also prior to the 2007 season, permanent seating (center) was put in at midfield to allow the spectators to be right in the action of the games. Prior to the 2005 season, Gardner-Webb erected a brand new scoreboard (right), adding to the game experience for all. In 2004, four light standards were installed, allowing the Bulldogs to play home night games for the first time in school history. The 2002, mobile bench covers were added, offering players from both teams protection from the elements.

Dr. A. Frank Bonner, in his sixth year as the president of GardnerWebb University, took office on May 2, 2005, and was inaugurated on April 6, 2006. Bonner is no stranger to GardnerWebb, having been a part of the University family since 1987. A native of Greenville, S.C., Bonner graduated from Furman University in 1969, has a M.A. degree from the University of Georgia and earned a Ph.D. from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. He was a faculty member and Associate Dean at Anderson College in Anderson, S.C., prior to beginning his career in Boiling Springs as Vice President for Academic Affairs. In 1992, Bonner was promoted to provost and senior vice president at Gardner-Webb, a post he held until assuming his current role in 2005.

6

After a comprehensive, national search for the university’s new president, chairman of the presidential search committee and the board of trustees, Frank Beam, said, “We came to the conclusion that we had the most qualified candidate right here at the university.” Bonner succeeded Dr. Frank Campbell, who served Gardner-Webb University as president from October, 2002 until June, 2005. Active in civic life and in the community, Bonner has served on the boards of the United Way, the YMCA, and Communities in Schools, and he serves on the Cleveland County Sports Commission. He is a past chairman of the Cleveland County Chamber, a past president of the Shelby Rotary Club, and a Sunday School teacher and deacon at First Baptist Church in Shelby. Bonner is also a retired Colonel in the U.S. Army Reserve. During Bonner’s time as provost, Gardner-Webb emerged as a vibrant institution for higher learning, officially moving from college to university in 1993. The institution’s academic reputation has steadily improved during Bonner’s time in Boiling Springs, with an outstanding faculty and consistently evolving curriculum. Bonner is married to the former Florence “Flossie” Black of Chester, S.C., also a graduate of Furman University. They are parents of two adult daughters and four grandchildren.

GWU ADMINISTRATION CHUCK BURCH Vice President for Athletics Gardner-Webb alumnus Chuck Burch is in his 14th year as Vice President for Athletics and his 29th year in athletics administration. The Charlotte, N.C., native spearheaded the Bulldogs move into Division I athletics, which resulted in Gardner-Webb’s addition to the Big South Conference as an associate member for football in 2001, and GWU’s move to the Big South as a full member – which became official on July 1, 2008. Burch oversees all athletic operations at Gardner-Webb, including management and supervision of athletic programs, facilities and budgets. During his career at GWU, Burch has overseen across-the-board improvements in facilities and the addition of five new sports since arriving in 1997. A sixth sport, men’s swimming was added in 2007-08. Burch is also responsible for continued improvements in the quality and quantity of Gardner-Webb’s athletics staff – with a number of full-time positions created to assist and enhance the entire department. GWU athletics has seen a steady increase in academic performance since Burch’s arrival, and the department has posted a combined GPA above 3.0 in each of the last two academic years. Gardner-Webb’s final year in the Atlantic Sun Conference was fruitful, with several notable wins and the usual high number of strong academic performances by the Bulldogs’ student-athletes. GWU enjoyed its most successful athletics year as a Division I member in 2006-07. Gardner-Webb won its first Atlantic Sun Conference Academic Championship, unseating Belmont University for the title. The Bulldogs also finished third in the men’s and women’s combined sports standings – a very impressive effort in the race for the inaugural Bill Bibb Trophy. Gardner-Webb’s men’s soccer team captured the imagination of faces across Cleveland County during its run to the 2006 A-Sun Championship and the NCAA Tournament second round. National qualifiers in Track & Field, swimming and wrestling highlighted competitive success for the Bulldogs in 2006-2007. Burch, a graduate of Independence (N.C.) High in Charlotte, and former member of Gardner-Webb’s football team, spent 19911997 as Director of Athletics at Liberty (Va.) University, and was instrumental in a successful and well run department in Lynchburg as well. He also served Liberty as Associate Director of Athletics (1988-1990), Assistant Director of Athletics (1984-1988), Sports Information Director (1986-1988) and Assistant Director of Sports Information (1982-1984). After graduating from Gardner-Webb in 1979 with a bachelor’s degree in Social Science, Burch, 52, earned his master’s degree from Eastern Kentucky University in 1982. His wife, Franki, holds a Ph.D. in Health Education from the University of Virginia, and currently serves as the Dean of the Graduate School as well as a professer in the Physical Education Wellness and Sports Studies Department. The couple has three children, Travis, a recent graduate of Furman University, Danielle, a junior soccer player at Brevard (N.C.) College and Amy (16). MEN’S SOCCER SUPPORT STAFF

Head Men’s Soccer Coach Tony Setzer, one of the pillars of Gardner-Webb’s men’s soccer program during his career in Boiling Springs, is entering his 23rd season as the Runnin’ Bulldogs’ head coach. The Bulldogs’ career victories leader with 155, Setzer, the face of GWU Men’s Soccer, has spent his entire 22-year collegiate career as a head coach in Boiling Springs, N.C. and has spearheaded the growth of soccer at GardnerWebb University and throughout Cleveland County. Setzer has been vital in the Bulldogs success over three transitions, as GWU transitioned to the NCAA Division I in 2000-01, moved into the Atlantic Sun Conference in 2002-03 and then most recently moved into the Big South Conference in 2008-09. The 2009 men’s soccer season was one of both highs and lows and up and downs for Setzer and his squad en route to the Bulldogs 8-6-3 overall record and 4-3-1 Big South Conference record. Gardner-Webb’s highs included the retiring of the No. 16 of Jordan Traylor and its first ever win over an ACC school in 17 tries, a 1-0 win over Clemson to kick off the 2009 season. The Bulldogs also had wins over Jacksonville and Liberty, both of which were only the second ever wins over those two teams in the program’s history. The Bulldogs tallied nine more goals in 2009 than the season before and tallied 17 more assists in the process to finishing the year

with its first winning season since 2006. Coach Setzer had a total of six players earn Big South All-Conference honors, as redshirt-senior Gerard Hefferon and redshirt-freshman Jovan Ivanovich were both named First-Team AllConference. Junior Romeo Kabanda and redshirt-freshman Jon Ole Reinhardsen were both named to the Second-Team, while freshman John Sargent was named to the All-Freshman Team. Junior goalkeeper Trent Kozman was not only named to the All-Academic Team, but he was also named the 2009 Big South Men’s Soccer Scholar Athlete of the Year. In the Bulldogs first year in the Big South Conference, GWU finished third overall with a 5-3-0-conference record. Overall the Bulldogs finished the season 6-12-0, as again Setzer put together a tough slate, which included 11 road games, two of which came against ACC powerhouses Clemson and N.C. State. In 2007, the Bulldogs suffered a down year picking up only three wins on the season. However, Coach Setzer’s squad, which consisted of only three seniors and was comprised of mostly newcomers, was coming of a championship season in 2006 and found themselves the hunted rather than the hunters. Adding to the pressure for the Bulldogs, it was its last season in the Atlantic Sun, putting an even larger target on the Bulldogs back in conference play. Setzer’s team had a superb season in 2006, reeling off a 5-1-1 ASun record and earning the No. 2 spot at the conference championship. Playing at Stetson University, his squad downed the host squad by a 2-1 score in the championship game, earning the school’s first-ever bid to the NCAA Championship. Playing at UAB in the opening round, the Bulldogs scored a 1-1 tie and moved on to the second round due to a 3-1 margin in penalty kicks after the teams played two scoreless overtime periods. GWU fell

2010 GARDNER-WEBB UNIVERSITY


by a 3-1 count to No. 9 Clemson in the second round, spoiling the team’s hope for a third-round match, and ending the Bulldogs stellar season. A total of six Bulldogs were honored by receiving A-Sun post-season awards and all-conference recognition at the conclusion of the season, including Setzer, who is not one for personal goals, being named the A-Sun Coach of the Year prior to the conference championship. Under his direction, Tyler Kettering garnered more saves than anyone to ever play in GWU and A-Sun history. After his collegiate days came to an end after the 2006 season, Kettering signed a professional contract to man the net for the Wilmington Hammerheads. Setzer’s 2005 Bulldogs put together a solid season as they finished 9-7-2 overall and improving their record by five games from the previous season. GWU started out the 2005 season 4-0-2 before suffering a heartbreaking 2-1 loss to the nationally ranked No. 17 Clemson Tigers. However, the Bulldogs would score their first ever victories over East Carolina, Appalachian State, Winthrop, and Florida Atlantic. The Bulldogs jumped into the top-10 regionally for the first time since moving to the Division I level, as Setzer’s 2005 squad was once ranked as high as 8th in the NSCAA/adidas South Region poll. Under Setzer in 2005, the Bulldogs had two individuals receive All-Conference honors, as senior Loren McLean was named to the Second Team All-Atlantic Sun Conference and rookie Dirk Dittrich earned a spot on the All-Freshmen Team. Setzer’s 2004 Bulldogs had several solid outings during a 4-15-0 campaign, seeing several near misses go in favor of the opposition. A total of seven matches were lost by just one goal, and three more close calls were lost, 2-0, by the Bulldogs. Perhaps the team’s most impressive effort came at #15 South Carolina as GWU got goals from Brian Wentzel and Darnell Caroll to lead the Gamecocks, only to see a late rally result in a 3-2 comeback win for the nationally-ranked foe. With Setzer’s guidance in 2004, keeper Tyler Kettering earned second-team All-Atlantic Sun Conference honors while recording a career-best 134 saves and a solid 1.93 goals against average. In 2003, Setzer’s bunch forged a 10-9 record, missing qualifying for the A-Sun Championship by just one game in the league standings. Setzer guided GWU to an incredible recovery from a winless 2002 season, and with an 8.5-game improvement in 2003, notched the nation’s largest turnaround. Setzer also directed the Bulldogs to the fifth 10-win season in school history, and the first at the Division I level. GWU was a serious contender every time it took the field in 2003, knocking off Georgia State, then the No. 7 team in the region, at home, and playing eventual A-Sun champion UCF to a 2-1 loss in overtime. The Bulldogs also put a scare into national No. 5 Wake Forest in October, 2003, forging a 1-1 tie for most of the first half before eventually falling 6-1. The 2003 season marked the first time that Gardner-Webb placed players on the A-Sun All-Conference Team, with Sergio Lozano and Carlitos Ramirez both earning second team honors. Rookie Tyler Kettering also took home postseason league honors, landing a spot on the All-Freshmen Team. Senior Todd Ulrich was GWU’s President’s Senior Athletic Program Achievement Award winner, and was a firstteam Academic All-District III and third-team Academic All-American performer in the classroom. Gardner-Webb also put seven players on the A-Sun All-Academic Team. Tough schedules are nothing new to Setzer or his team, as the Bulldogs are noted for refusing to shy away from challenges. Over the past eight seasons, Gardner-Webb has played seven games against opponents ranked in the top-15 nationally, including top-ranked Wake

MEN’S SOCCER MEDIA GUIDE

Forest in 2002. Success is no stranger to Setzer either. In 1998, at the Division II level, Setzer directed the Bulldogs to their first national top-25 ranking, as GWU reached as high as No. 21 in the Division II poll behind a balanced attack and strong defense. He has coached the top goalkeeper and three scorers in Gardner-Webb history, both single-season and career, and has tutored an impressive 16 All-Americans during his tenure – including 11 Academic All-Americans. Former Gardner-Webb star forward Jerome Lee Yaw, the school’s career leader in goals and total points, became the first student-athlete in Gardner-Webb University’s history to be named first-team All-American and Academic All-American in the same season (1996). During Gardner-Webb’s time in the South Atlantic Conference, Setzer developed 28 All-Conference performers and five All-South Region choices. GWU Hall of Fame member Dennis Puckerin was honored as SAC Player of the Year in 1990, while Lee Yaw earned that honor in 1995. Two players, Vince Bueno (1996) and Jurgen Wagner (1998) were named SAC Freshman of the Year under Setzer. Edwin Odugba (1994 and 1995) and Lee Yaw were named South Atlantic Conference First Union Scholar Athlete of the Year during their careers, also earning All-Conference honors during those seasons. Odugba also earned the SAC President’s Award in 1994 and 1995 as the league’s top male student-athlete, making him the only Gardner-Webb performer, in any sport, to earn the honor twice. Prior to joining the Gardner-Webb family, Setzer served as an assistant coach at The Citadel under Bill Barfield. Setzer earned his Master’s degree from The Citadel in 1988. A 1986 graduate of Lander (S.C.) University, Setzer was a standout goalkeeper for the annually powerful Senators and enjoyed a brief professional playing career with the Columbus Capitals of the APISL before heading to The Citadel. Setzer, who holds a USSF “A” License, is also the founder of the Runnin’ Bulldog Soccer Academy, and has been a driving force in the youth soccer movement in Cleveland County and, specifically, in Boiling Springs with the Greater Cleveland County Soccer Association. On most Saturdays, thousands of youth soccer players descend on Gardner-Webb University’s campus to compete in league and tournament matches. Setzer is married to the former Kristen Lott, a four-time AllConference selection for the Gardner-Webb women’s program in the mid-1990s, and the program’s leader in goals with 49 and second leading career scorer with 113 points. The couple resides in Boiling Springs and has four daughters. Madison Faye will be seven years old on Nov. 20. On March 20, 2007, the couple gave birth to triplets - Sydney Dianne, Morgan Jeanette and Cadence McRee.

TYLER KETTERING

DANE GERACI

Associate Head Coach

Graduate Assistant Coach

Former GWU standout and career saves leader Tyler Kettering is entering his second year as Associate Head Coach for the Gardner-Webb men’s soccer program. Kettering, who served as an assistant coach in 2007, serves as the recruiting coordinator and contact for the Bulldogs, as well as running day to day team operations along with developing and implementing practice sessions and overseeing the goalkeeper training throughout the season. In 2009, the Bulldogs posted an 8-6-3 overall record and a 4-3-1. GWU posted three shutouts, including a 1-0 win over Clemson in the season opener. GWU’s goalkeepers allowed only 31 goals on the season, posted a 1.75 goals against average and a 66.3 saves percentage. Starting keeper Trent Kozman led the Bulldogs with 53 saves on the season. Kettering, who manned the goal for the Bulldogs from 2003-06, was a two-time Atlantic Sun All-Conference selection and earned a spot on the 2003 Atlantic Sun Conference All-Freshmen Team. Kettering, who hails from Xenia, Ohio, was a three-time Atlantic Sun Conference Defensive Player of the Week recipient and led the Bulldogs in saves all four seasons he played at GWU. Kettering, who holds both the Atlantic Sun Conference and the GWU records in career saves with 446, led the nation in saves in both 2004 and 2006. Kettering is also second in the GWU career record books with 15 career shutouts, second in single-season shutouts with six in 2006, third in single-season goals against average with an average of 1.25 in 2005 and fourth in single season saves with 134. After his playing days at Gardner-Webb, Kettering went on to play professionally with both the Wilmington Hammerheads (2006-07) and the Chicago Fire of the MLS (2008-09). Kettering was married to the former Ali Labig on December 29, 2007. The couple resides in Boiling Springs with their son Logan, who was born on March 19, 2009.

Graduate Assistant Coach Dane Geraci is in his second season on the Gardner-Webb men’s soccer staff, having been a member of the team as a player since 2004. Geraci, who will help with the day-to-day operations and the goalkeeper training, manned the goal for the Bulldogs over his final two seasons with the Bulldogs, playing 2683:18 minutes over 30 matches during that span. In 2009, his first year on head coach Tony Setzer’s staff, the Bulldogs posted an 8-6-3 overall record and a 4-3-1 conference record which included its first ever win over an ACC school in 17 tries, a 1-0 win over Clemson in the season opener. The Bulldogs also had wins over Jacksonville and Liberty, both of which were only the second ever wins over those two teams in the program’s history. GWU posted three shutouts, including a 1-0 win over Clemson in the season opener. GWU’s goalkeepers allowed only 31 goals on the season, posted a 1.75 goals against average and a 66.3 saves percentage. Starting keeper Trent Kozman led the Bulldogs with 53 saves on the season. Geraci, who backed up fellow coach Tyler Kettering in 2004-06, was vital in the Bulldogs 2006 Atlantic Sun Conference Championship season and more importantly in the Bulldogs First Round NCAA Championship College Cup Tournament win over UAB. Geraci came off the bench to stop three penalty kicks by the Blazers in the shootout to give the Bulldogs the 3-1 win on penalty kicks in the shootout and help them advance to the second round of the NCAA Championship College Cup tournament. Geraci graduated in December 2008 and is currently working toward his MBA degree at Gardner-Webb. VOLUNTEER COACHES

2010 SEASON OUTLOOK In 2010 the Gardner-Webb Runnin’ Bulldogs will have a mix of both senior leadership and new blood, as head coach Tony Setzer’s squad will be led by five experienced seniors that will look to lead and guide a total of 15 newcomers en route to its third straight winning record in Big South Conference play. After falling for the second straight season in the quarterfinals of the Big South Conference Championship Tournament last season, Coach Setzer and his staff will look for the Runnin’ Bulldogs squad to play with even more determination, will and smarts in 2010. While the roster has 15 newcomers, including 10 freshmen, experience should not be a factor in 2010, as the Runnin’ Bulldogs return 20 letterwinners, including six starters from a team that went 8-6-3 overall last season with key wins over Clemson, Liberty, Jacksonville, Georgia Southern and Radford. DEFENSE Last year’s strong leg is this season’s question mark, as the defensive third for the Runnin’ Bulldogs is all but set in 2010. With the departure of graduated seniors Jordan Gaines and Mark Webster, the backline of defense will be led by redshirt-sophomore Jon Ole Reinhardsen. Reinhardsen, who was named to the Big South All-Conference Second-Team last season, will look to lead a new and young defensive line in 2010. Senior Adam Augruso, who split time in the midfield and on the defensive side of the pitch last season, will see more time in the defensive line, as will fellow returners Kevin Nolan, Jordan Day and Jaap Elekan. Augruso played in 16 games last season, scoring one goal and one assists on the season, but like Nolan and Day, who both bring quick feet to the backline, the upperclassman brings leadership and familiarity of Coach Setzer’s system to the field. A duo of newcomers in transfer Ian Hartfield and Jonathan Arango will also compete immediately for time in the defensive third for GWU in 2010. Hartfield, a transfer John Sargent from Gonzaga University in Spokane, Washington, brings both experience and understanding to the backline for the Runnin’ Bulldogs. Arango is very athletic and can get to the ball quickly and will look to see some minutes for GWU’s defense this season. MIDFIELD Like in 2009, the Runnin’ Bulldogs have a ton of depth in the midfield, ranging from experienced seniors to eager newcomers, all with the intentions to make an immediate impact in 2009. Highlighted by returners Romeo Kabanda, Eric AsaninMiroux, Richie Wall and John Sargent, the four combined to score 13 goals, dish out 16 assists and provide four gamewinning goals in 2009. Kabanda, who earned a spot on the Big South All-Conference Second-Team last season, will look to pick up more of the scoring load left behind with the departure of senior Gerard Hefferon. Sargent, who was named to the Big South All-Freshman Team a year ago, will look to continue to make an impact in the middle for Coach Setzer’s squad, while Asanin-Miroux and Wall’s minutes should increase in 2010.

2010 GARDNER-WEBB UNIVERSITY


2010 SEASON OUTLOOK Depth in the midfield will come by way of sophomore Patrick Colgan and a slew of newcomers highlighted by freshmen Marius Hammersmark and Nicolas Wrobel. Newcomers Eric Bowen, Chijioke Akujuobi, Matthew Cardin, Chad Castainca, Stephen Maxwell, Brice Nardozzi and Austin O’Conner will all also compete for minutes in the midfield, as each brings a different set of physical skills to the pitch. FORWARDS With the loss of its leading scorer for the second straight season, Gardner-Webb will look to a group of four returners capable of picking up the scoring load in 2010. Junior Taylor Jordan, who tallied two goals in limited minutes last season, will look to be GWU’s scoring threat up top this season, while senior Guy Mbanyamsig and sophomore Eliel Delphonse will look to make an impact in the offensive third for the Runnin’ Bulldogs this season when given the chance. Newcomers Chris Davis and Satoshi Tatsumi will also compete for playing time up front for Coach Setzer’s squad immediately, while fellow newbies Wrobel and Cardin could also see time at the forward positions. Davis, who is 6-2 and 200 pounds, will bring strength, size and physical play up front for GWU. GOALKEEPERS The Runnin’ Bulldogs should have no problems in manning the net in 2010, as the roster includes seven goalkeepers. However, redshirt-sophomore Evan Johnson, a transfer from Syracuse University, and fellow redshirt-sophomore Scott Krotee will both have to sit out the season due to injuries, putting the count at five keepers heading into play. Senior Trent Kozman, the Big South Scholar-Athlete of the Year for men’s soccer last season, started 16 games a year ago, missing the Big South Championship Tournament game for GWU due to an injury. Kozman posted seven wins last season, including three shutout victories, recording 53 saves along the way. Competition for Kozman in goal will come by way of junior college transfer Adam Garcia and returners Andrew Robinson and Colin Ashley. Robinson played in two games last season, picking up one win. Ashley is coming off a year in which he redshirted, while junior Garcia brings forth a strong resume and work ethic from Phoenix College in Phoenix, Arizona. SCHEDULE The challenging slate in 2010 includes non-conference games against Clemson, UNC Greensboro, Appalachian State, Lipscomb, Belmont, Davidson, Mercer, Georgia State and USC Upstate, with five of those games coming at home at Greene-Harbison Field. However, the Big South Conference schedule will once again prove to be a very tough challenge as well in 2010, as the Runnin’ Bulldogs will play on the road at High Point, at Asheville, at Liberty and at Winthrop, while hosting VMI, Coastal Carolina, Presbyterian College and Radford.

2010 GARDNER-WEBB UNIVERSITY


BIG SOUTH CONFERENCE Since its founding in 1983, the Big South Conference has matured into a competitive leader in college athletics, actively pursuing excellence on the field of play and in the classroom. The League’s growing presence as an NCAA Division I athletic conference is evident by athletic accomplishments on the national stage, innovative marketing and media partnerships, increased television packages, and quality athletic competition while intentionally fostering the academic, personal, social, athletic and leadership development of each student-athlete. This has evolved into the Conference’s mission of “Developing Leaders Through Athletics.” The Big South Conference was formed on August 21, 1983, when Charleston Southern (then Baptist College) Athletic Director Howard Bagwell and Augusta President George Christenberry began recruiting members into the Big South, receiving initial commitments from Augusta, Charleston Southern, Campbell, Coastal Carolina and Winthrop. One month later, Dr. Edward M. Singleton was selected as the League’s first Commissioner and continued to solicit new members. His efforts led to the additions of Armstrong State, Radford and UNC Asheville, giving the Big South more than the required six members to constitute an official conference. The Big South’s first year of competition was in the Fall of 1984, and in September 1986, the Big South Conference was granted full-fledged NCAA Division I status. During its infancy and prior to securing automatic bids to NCAA Championships, the Big South made early strides in earning at-large berths in several national postseason events, including volleyball, women’s basketball and women’s golf. In 1989, George F. “Buddy” Sasser replaced the retiring Dr. Singleton as Commissioner, and in 1990, the League received its first automatic bid – receiving an automatic qualifier to the NCAA Baseball Championship. Under Sasser’s seven years of leadership, the Conference implemented its public relations and compliance programs, and introduced its first-ever men’s basketball television package, featuring the Big South competing among some of the finest teams in the nation. In August 1996, Kyle B. Kallander replaced Sasser as the League’s third Commissioner, and in his 13 years at the helm of the Big South, Kallander has been instrumental in aggressively promoting the Conference to new levels. The Conference has enjoyed record levels in marketing revenue during the past several years, he has brought television coverage to Big South women’s basketball, baseball and softball for the first time in Conference history, as well as increased national television exposure to the League as a whole through aggressive and unique television packages. Under Kallander’s leadership, the Big South developed and initiated its first long-range strategic plan, re-affirming the League’s vision as a distinctive athletic Conference committed to the quality of institutional life through athletic competition. He also spearheaded the efforts to add football as a championship sport, which came to fruition in 2002, and has solidified Conference membership with the additions of High Point, Gardner-Webb and Presbyterian, and in 2011-12, the return of charter member Campbell University. Kallander’s long range vision has also included technological advancements, as the Conference introduced its first live event video streaming in 2005 and has since expanded its video offerings to more than 600 events annually through a partnership with the member institutions, as well as the creation of several online and social media platforms. In the last 15 years, the Big South Conference has experienced monumental growth and success in nearly every sport. During this time, the Conference has had two individual National Champions, more than 200 All-Americans, has reached the “Sweet 16” in men’s soccer, women’s basketball and baseball, has received national Top 25 rankings in men’s soccer, men’s basketball, women’s basketball, baseball, men’s outdoor track & field, and men’s golf, had an individual selected to play in the NCAA Singles Championship four times in addition to the first men’s tennis doubles at-large selection, had the No. 1 ranked men’s golfer in the country, has had the nation’s top scoring men’s basketball team three consecutive years as well as the national men’s basketball scoring leader twice, received an at-large playoff berth in the Football Championship Subdivision in 2006, and had an institution finish fifth in the NCAA Men’s Golf Championships – the Conference’s highest-ever team finish in an NCAA event. In 2006-07 alone, the Big South was the only Conference nationwide to have an at-large participant in the football playoffs (Coastal Carolina), a team in the Second Round of the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament (Winthrop) and a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Baseball Regionals (Coastal Carolina). In fact, Coastal Carolina’s baseball program has been a No. 1 seed three out of the last five years, while its FCS playoff berth in 2006 came in just the fifth-year of the Big South’s football existence. The Conference’s tagline, “Developing Leaders Through Athletics” was unveiled in 2008-09 in conjunction with the Conference’s 25th Anniversary. The League also honored its heritage with the Top 25 “Best of the Best” moments in League history from 1983-2008, with Liberty University’s 10-year women’s basketball championship run from 1996-2007 being crowned the No. 1 moment in the Big South’s first 25 years. The Conference’s on-field accomplishments have been duplicated in the classroom. Annually, more than 40 percent of Conference student-athletes are named to the Big South’s Presidential Honor Roll for maintaining a cumulative 3.0 grade-point average, and the League has had more than 95 Academic All-Americans in its quartercentury of existence.
