2011 Lady Demon Volleyball

F r e s h m e n C o u n t e d O n T o V a ul t Lady Demons Into A Contender Second year co-head coach Hugh Hernesman has truly taken to heart the phrase “building a program.”

Team with his wife, Stephanie, to guide Northwestern State into the 2011 season, the Hernesmans will do so with a roster comprised of nine true freshmen, two sophomores, one junior, and no seniors.

“It’ll be a quick and easy Senior Day for us,” said Hugh at the annual Fall Sports Media Day in early August.

Despite the youth, this Lady Demon program, who posted one of the top 10 turnarounds in terms of victories last season after winning 10 more matches from the previous season, will boast one of the most talented teams a Lady Demon volleyball program has seen in quite some time, if ever.

“This should be an interesting year for NSU Volleyball,” said Hugh.

“It is going to clearly be a building year with a great number of young players on the floor. In fact, threequarters of our roster is going to be freshmen after losing an unusual number of seniors. With that, there is some great enthusiasm among the staff and the players with the new direction of the program. We’ve added some very talented players that will increase the overall level of play in our gym. The biggest issues will be how fast can we learn to play with one another and how fast can we learn the systems of play.”

The defense will be the signature of the 2011 Lady Demons.

Said Hernesman: “As long as we are running this program, defense and ball control will continue to be the signature of our program. This doesn’t change with new faces. In fact, we believe that we’ve added some players that will only enhance this for our program.”

Hernesman notes that how fast the young group picks up on buying into the system depends on how high their expectations will be.

“There are some wild cards here that can greatly affect the season.

Number one will be youth. With youth comes inexperience at the collegiate level and also a general lack of physicality. We’ll be competing against a number of teams that have had players in two or three years of a college strength program and that is significant. On the other hand, sometimes physicality takes a back seat to skill and we’ll have a tremen2011 Lady Demon Volleyball

dously skilled team. How that skill fits together is for the staff to figure out. The second major factor is our learning rate. If we as a staff, do a good job teaching, we should put our team in a position to be competitive in every match. Once we’re competitive, the wins will take care of themselves. So there can be a big range there for our season, but our expectations will remain high.”

Hugh Hernesman

breaks down each position

Position: Setter Players: Lauren Joyner, Emily Sweet, Keelie Arneson, Emily Johnson

• Our setting situation will be much improved over what we had last year. This year, we feel as though we’ve got four solid options.

Lauren Joyner is coming off knee surgery this past Thanksgiving and some complications from that. How the knee recovers will determine how competitive she’ll be for this spot. But she’s got experience in our system and knows what we expect. Emily Sweet is coming from a great club program and is as experienced as anyone can be- playing at the open level since her 15’s year for a great club. Keelie Arneson is a great setter, but small. She made the all-state team as a setter and MVP of her district, but we’re intending to use her at libero- where she’s also very good. She’s a great insurance policy if there are injuries at that position. Emily Johnson is a pretty skilled kid. She’s just a very good volleyball player and a smooth player that knows how to command the floor.

last portion of spring ball re-learning the middle position and learning what we do and will be fine. Both are great competitors.

Position: Opposite/Right-side Players: Nicole Hajka, Caiti O’Connell

• Nicole will be given the first shot at this job. She’s a versatile hitter and does pretty well on the right side as well as the left side. Caiti O’Conell, again, probably needs a year to develop, but if she goes out and makes it a no-brainer, it would be tough to not use her.

Position: Libero Players: Jessica Guttierrez, Keelie Arneson, Tamara Hanna, Emily Johnson

• This will be interesting. Jessica Guttierrez knows our system and is a fearless kid with a great work ethic. Jess also knows our system well and has played all three back court positions. She’s coming off knee surgery and there could be some setbacks that come along with that.

Tamara Hanna is the most experienced and most “natural” libero. She Position: Outside Hitter plays with great effort. Keelie Arneson just started playing libero this Players: Nicole Hajka, Jessica Guttierrez, Stacey DiFrancesco, past year in club and progressed a lot further than we expected. She Kelly Jimenez, Caiti O’Connell is an athlete with tremendous speed and a great first step. It will just • Nicole Hajka will be the most experienced of the bunch. She depend on how fast the position starts feeling natural for her. All of played much of her freshman year before we arrived and gained some them are high effort and fearless players, so I think it’ll be fun to valuable experience, but then got caught up in a numbers battle last watch that position battle. Whoever win that battle, will leave two season. The key for Nicole will be consistency. Both DiFrancesco and players that can be used in a defensive specialist role.

Jimenez are similar players. Both are six-rotation players and have similar skill sets and both achieved at high levels in club and high school. Jessica Guttierrez won’t be ready to hit early in the year- if at all this season- after undergoing knee surgery this past spring. But she’s pretty determined, so we’re not going to rule her out. Caiti O’Connell is a player with great potential, but may need a redshirt year to get strong.

Position: Middle Blocker Players: Mackenzie Neely, Vanessa Coleman, Kelly Jimenez

• Losing Holly Moreno to retirement (back) hurts our depth here.

So we’re razor thin in the middle, but that’s just part of building a program. Can’t do it all in one year. The reality is that we won’t be able to replace a player like Laranda Spann right away, but I think that Vanessa Coleman is just as athletic with great speed and leaping ability, so I wouldn’t be surprised to see Vanessa come on as the season progresses and she gets acclimated. Mackenzie Neely played middle for most of her youth. Her 17’s year in club, she moved to the rightside and that’s where she’ll end up for us eventually. She spent the Great Tradition • Brighter Future

Graduate Assistant Coach

Elaina Kakatolis 2nd Season at NSU Ball State (2010)

Elaina Kakatolis is in her second season at Northwestern State, serving as a graduate assistant.

Kakatolis comes to NSU after lettering four years in volleyball at Ball State where she earned her bachelor’s degree in accounting this past May.

As a player at Ball State, Kakatolis ended her career ranked 14th in the program history with 2,203 attempts; finished as one of the top blockers in program history, ranking 16th in block assists (227) and 18th in career total blocks (249); and her 127 sets played in 2008 tie as the 17th-best single-season total in the program.

“Having Elaina as a member of our staff is huge for our program,” commented Hugh Hernesman. “For all three years that we were together at Ball State, Elaina was a leader and captain for the team. Her teammates gravitated to her and she has a nice, easy calm about her. As a three-year starter, Elaina’s experience of playing within our unique systems of play makes her a great resource for our players. The bottom line is that we have another coach that knows what we do as well as we do, that will step right in without any sort of learning curve. On top of that, Elaina is a very organized and responsible individual, which will be invaluable to the day-to-day operations of the program.”

As a high school player at Franklin Monroe in Ohio, Kakatolis helped guide her team to a 16-7 record her senior year and a 63-26 mark over her career. She led her team to three sectional runner-up finishes and a pair of conference championships and was the conference player of the year as a senior. She tallied a school-record 298 kills as a senior to go along with a .443 attack percentage while recording 100 blocks and 125 digs.

She was named all-area first team her final two seasons as well as first team all-district. She was also a three-time first team all-cross country selection.

Born on Sept. 1, 1986 in Greenville, Ohio, Kakatolis is the daughter of Peter and Susan Kakatolis and has one sister, Kaitlyn.

Dr. Randall J. Webb

2011 Lady Demon Volleyball

Northwestern State President

Dr. Randall J. Webb stated when he became Northwestern State U N I V E R S I T Y A D M I N I S T R AT I O N University’s 17th president in July of 1996 that his primary objective President: would be to help make his Alma Mater the best institution it could be.

It is apparent after 15 years that Webb is achieving that admirable goal. . . . . . . . . . . . . . Dr. Randall J. Webb Enrollment has reached record levels during Webb’s tenure as Provost & Vice President for Academic and president and exceeded 10,500 for the first time in history in the fall Student Affairs: of 2004. Webb has also been at the forefront in recent years of moving . . . . . . . . . . . . . Dr. Lisa Abney the university toward higher admission standards, which has resulted Vice President for External Affairs: in some enrollment declines but in the enrollment of students with . . . . . . . . . . . . . Jerry Pierce greater academic potential and aptitude.

Retention has increased at the university, the average ACT score of students has gone up, and Vice President for Business Affairs: high school student leaders are enrolling in Northwestern in record numbers. There has been a . . . . . . . . . . . . . Carl Jones substantial increase in the number of high school valedictorians and salutatorians among first-time Vice President for University Affairs: . . . . . . . . . . . . . Marcus Jones freshmen at the university.

External funding for NSU has also increased dramatically under Webb’s leadership. In the first Vice President for Technology, Research and capital campaign in its history, the university received $32.7 million to far exceed its goal of $18.84 Economic Development: million. That funding included the establishment of numerous endowed chairs and professorships . . . . . . . . . . . . . Dr. Darlene Williams to enhance academic programs at the university. In addition to the private funding, Northwestern has received more grant monies in recent years from state and federal agencies and private founda- Executive Assistant to the President: . . . . . . . . . . . . . Robert Crew tions than at any time since its founding in 1884.

Webb has also expanded the university’s outreach by spearheading the development at NSU of the largest electronic education and distance learning network of any university in Louisiana. NSU offers courses and degree programs to students across the nation and world through Internet and compressed video.

Millions of dollars have been obtained during Webb’s presidency for new and renovated facilities. A new $6.9 million Wellness, Recreation and Activity Center opened on the campus in 2005; and Morrison Hall, the Family and Consumer Sciences Building, and Williamson Hall have been completely renovated and restored. A new Student Services Center on the site of the former West Caspari Hall will be complete early next year. Over $32 million in construction by a private company has added two modified residence halls to the campus in recent years. Funding has also been obtained to rebuild the East Caspari Hall and replace the underground electrical distribution system.

Northwestern academic programs and athletic teams continue to receive positive national recognition. The Computer Information Systems program, for example, won five consecutive national championships in academic competition in systems analysis, and the NSU men’s basketball team defeated Iowa in the NCAA national championship tournament.

A former center on the Northwestern football team, Webb is an avid supporter of the university’s athletic programs and has held positions of leadership at the national level in intercollegiate athletics. He has served as chair of the board of directors of the Southland Conference and has been a member of the prestigious NCAA Executive Council and the NCAA Division I Board of Directors that oversee all major policy decisions by the governing body for major college sports. He currently serves as the Southland Conference representative on the NCAA Presidential Advisory Group.

A 1965 graduate of Northwestern in mathematics and business education, Webb earned a master of science degree in mathematics from NSU in 1966. He received a doctorate in education from the University of Southern Mississippi in 1971 with a concentration in mathematics and research.

Webb was a member of the faculty of Longwood College in Farmville, Va, from 1966 until 1974. He served as Director of Higher Education and Teacher Certification in the Louisiana Department of Education from 1974 through 1976. He moved to Southeastern Louisiana University in 1976 and in 13 years there held positions as director of institutional research, EEO officer, registrar and member of the mathematics faculty.

He became Dean of Instruction and Graduate Studies and professor of mathematics at Northwestern in 1989. In that position, he was responsible for campuswide policy development, planning, advancement, and review of both graduate and undergraduate programs. While Webb was in that position, graduate enrollment increased by 35 percent, and internal funding for faculty research increased by 200 percent.

As dean, Webb proposed the concept for NSU’s successful Freshman Connection Program and served as a member of the writing team for a grant proposal that resulted in a five year, $1.7 million Title III grant to improve student retention. He also chaired the steering committee for NSU’s Self Study for the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools.

He has been active in the community as a member of the board of directors of the Natchitoches Chamber of Commerce and as a member of the Association for the Preservation of Historic Natchitoches, the Natchitoches Historic Foundation, the Natchitoches-Northwestern Symphony Society, Rotary Club, and the First Baptist Church.

Webb and his wife Brenda have two daughters, both honor graduates of Northwestern. Tamara and her husband, former NSU All-America baseball pitcher Reggie Gatewood, live in McKinney, Texas, withtheir children Tyler and Ava. Lauren is married to former outstanding NSU baseball player Nick Simokaitis, and they live in St. Louis with their sons Nicholas and Benjamin.

Jerry Pierce

Vice President • External Affairs Jerry Pierce is the Cal Ripken of the Northwestern State athletic program.

Day after day, year after year, Pierce is in the lineup, fielding his position with aplomb, and delivering at the plate, knocking a ball out of the park from time to time but always taking an understated profile, seeing himself as a role player.

Beginning his 47th year on the university’s staff, Pierce’s impact on NSU and the city of Natchitoches can’t be measured as easily as Ripkin’s Baseball Hall of Fame statistics, but they are equally indelible.

He begins his 21st year as vice president of external affairs at Northwestern. A significant aspect of his job is oversight of intercollegiate athletics. Pierce works closely with athletic director Greg Burke and all NSU coaches and staff members to keep Northwestern athletics competing at a championship level week after week, month after month and year after year.

Pierce is an avid tennis player who has been a member of USTA teams that have won more than a dozen state championships, five regional titles and one national championship.

Well before moving into the executive position, Pierce NSU Athletic Council had already served his alma mater, adopted hometown and state with distinction.

Greg Burke

2011 Lady Demon Volleyball

Director of Athletics The Burke File AGE: 54 (Born Oct. 22, 1956) • HOMETOWN: Alliance, Ohio • HIGH SCHOOL: Marlington ’74 • COLLEGE: Mt. Union ’78 (cum laude) POSTGRADUATE: Kent State ’86 • BEFORE HE WAS A.D.: Sports writer, Alliance (Ohio) Review, 1972-78; director of news and sports information, Hiram (Ohio) College (1978-85); administrative intern, NSU athletics, 1985-86; director, NSU Athletic Association, 1986-92; director of athletic development, University of Akron, 1992-96.

BIG FAN OF: Cleveland Browns, Indians and Cavaliers • INTERESTS: Working out, watching ESPN and VH1 Classic, family outings.

At the outset of his 16th year as director of athletics at Northwestern State, Greg Burke has received national acclaim for the job he’s done in his adopted hometown.

Burke has been athletics director at Northwestern since Aug. 29, 1996, when his first day included speaking at the annual NSU/Independence Bowl Kickoff Luncheon. Burke is the longest serving AD at any Louisiana institution.

He has steered NSU athletics to many of its greatest accomplishments while overseeing a program that has fielded championship caliber teams in nearly all of the school’s NCAA Division I sports.

Last year, he was included among 29 winners of the Under Amour AD of the Year Award presented by the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA). He was also among four winners chosen to be involved in a Street and Smith’s SportsBusiness Journal panel discussion on current Division I athletics issues. Joining NSU’s Burke were Purdue’s Morgan Burke (no relation), Samford’s Bob Roller and Lee Fowler of North Carolina State, with the transcript of their discussion distributed to national media by the Sports Business Daily. Burke just completed a term as the 2010-11 president of the Football Championship Subdivision Athletics Directors Association.

Burke’s 15 years as athletic director include 32 Southland Conference regular-season or tournament championships, 54 All-American and Academic All-American student athletes, and three U.S. Olympic competitors. Seventeen NSU teams have taken part in NCAA or WNIT postseason competition.

Under his guidance, Northwestern State has led all 13 public institutions in Louisiana, and all 12 Southland Conference institutions, in the NCAA’s Academic Progress Rate and Graduation Success Rate reports. The school’s athletic facilities have undergone nearly $7 million in improvements in the past four years.

NSU in 2004-05 became the first (and remains the only) Southland Conference member in the league’s five decades of history to sweep football, men’s basketball and baseball championships in the same athletic year. It’s been done only once in Southeastern Conference history, by Alabama in 1933-34, and only four times in Big Ten Conference history, the last time by Michigan State in 1979-80.

Those accomplishments have come with one of the more modest athletic budgets in the state and conference. Burke’s management skill and fundraising ability have been pivotal.

Burke generated a $2 million series of sponsorships for new scoreboards installed for 2008-09 at all NSU athletic venues and spearheaded the $700,000 Second Century Circle fencing project for athletic venues.

Burke has displayed a remarkable ability to hire dynamic head coaches, including several whose success at Northwestern State has propelled them to national prominence in subsequent positions.

Some of his best hires remain on staff at NSU. Two, basketball’s Mike McConathy and soccer’s Jimmy Mitchell, guided Northwestern in NCAA Tournament play in their second seasons and have been back to postseason since. NSU’s 2006 basketball team scored one of the most memorable upsets in the history of March Madness, coming from 17 down to stun No. 15-ranked Iowa 64-63.

Burke has selected head coaches who have subsequently been hired by Alabama, Florida, Missouri, New Mexico, Kentucky, Virginia, Mississippi State and Wichita State.

From his first day on the job, Burke has stressed the importance of having a balanced athletic program. To that end, tremendous competitive strides have been made in women’s athletics under his guidance. The NSU soccer program was the first one in Louisiana ever to reach the NCAA Tournament and remains the only one with multiple appearances. Volleyball set attendance records and has made its best-ever showings in conference play in recent years. In softball, NSU posted the nation’s most improved win total in 2010 regular-season play under second-year coach Donald Pickett, and moved among league contenders in 2011. The Lady Demons joined Stanford as the only women’s tennis programs in the country in 2010 with only one regular-season loss, while sweeping Southland regular-season and tournament titles and making a first-ever NCAA Team Tournament appearance.

While on-field success by Demon and Lady Demon teams has been a source of pride for NSU supporters, Burke is equally proud of the tone which has been set within the NSU athletic program as it relates to academic achievement and community service.

The academic accomplishments are reflected annually in the NCAA’s APR and GSR studies. Community service by NSU student-athletes, coaches and staff more than doubled to over 5,000 hours in 2009-10 and remained at that level in 2010-11.

Burke spearheaded the adoption of the slogan “Great Tradition, Brighter Future” for NSU Athletics, and the creation of NSU Athletics “Cornerstones” for student-athletes: “Academic Achievement, Personal Responsibility, Competitive Success … Every Minute, Every Hour, Every Day!” In 2005, Burke was one of three recipients of the All-America Football Foundation’s Gen. Robert R. Neyland Outstanding Athletic Director Award and that same year, was also tabbed as one of two Natchitoches Parish Cenla Newsmakers of 2005 by the Alexandria Town Talk newspaper’s editorial staff.

He received the 2006 “Outstanding Alumni Award” from his alma mater, Marlington High School in Alliance, Ohio, recognizing his community service and professional achievements. Burke became one of only 21 alumni honored since the award was instituted in 1982.

In June 2006, he was a featured speaker and panelist at the National Association of Collegiate Athletic Directors convention in New Orleans, addressing members of the College Athletic Business Managers of America and also participating in a panel discussion of “Fundraising from an Athletic Director’s Perspective” speaking to the National Association of Athletic Development Directors.

Since 2007, Burke has been a member of the prestigious NCAA Championships/Sports Management Cabinet, a 49-person panel which makes recommendations to the NCAA Board of Directors on key issues facing Division I athletics.

He previously served a four-year term on the NCAA Division I Football Issues Committee (1999-2002) and concurrently served a term on the eight-member NCAA FCS Committee that administers the national playoffs. Since his committee term expired, Burke has served as a site supervisor for Football Championship Subdivision playoff games across the nation and he is regarded as one of the country’s premiere advocates of FCS football. In 2004, NSU received the highest possible rating, “fully certified,” from the National Collegiate Athletic Association, affirming that Northwestern operates its athletic program in substantial conformity with operating principles adopted by the NCAA Division I membership.

Burke is a past president of the Natchitoches Kiwanis Club and remains active in that civic group. He has also been part of the steering committee for the Natchitoches Christmas Festival and is a former president of the Natchitoches Area Jaycees. He is involved with the American Heart Association and was 2010 March of Dimes chairman locally.

He and his wife, Susu, is a Natchitoches native, NSU graduate and an elementary teacher.

Their 17-year-old daughter, Catherine, is captain of the St. Mary’s High School cheerleading squad, in addition to being a point guard on the basketball team and a member of the tennis Greg Burke with wife, Susu, and daughter, Catherine. team.

Since 2006, he has served as Faculty Athletic Representative for NSU. This role includes the chair of the NSU Athletic Council.

Since 2006, Northwestern State University has made numerous paradigm shifts in how it addresses the needs of student-athletes; however, one thing has been consistent in that its student-athletes are winners on the field and in the classroom. All have heard about higher educational institutions being penalized by the NCAA for academic improprieties.

NSU has attempted to be a model program of “Doing Things the Right Way,” by following the Athletic Department motto: Great Tradition – Brighter Futures. This past year, NSU was one of only four schools in the State of Louisiana that did not receive any penalties for low NCAA Academic Progress Rates (APR) with baseball, soccer, softball, tennis, women’s indoor & outdoor track, and volleyball rating in the top three in the Southland Conference. Among the 40 Northwestern State student-athletes and athletic staff members who graduated in spring 2010, 10 of the 20 receiving undergraduate degrees graduated either cum laude or magna cum laude. Graduation rates of student-athletes in soccer, volleyball, men’s basketball, baseball and football ranked in the top four of the Conference. These accomplishments could not have been achieved without the support and efforts of the student-athletes, coaches, faculty, and administration.

Also, Jody is the Director for the Louisiana Addiction Technology Transfer Center at NSU. He has served on the National Addiction Technology Transfer Center’s (ATTC) - Practice and National Leadership Institute Committee. In addition, he has coordinated five nationally recognized leadership institutes for Louisiana, Texas and New Mexico and a member of the National ATTC Leadership Directors Committee.

Crowell served as an intern in the Academic Services and CHAMPS/ Life Skills program in January 2009, while also completing her second season as a graduate assistant soccer coach and finishing work on her master’s of science in sport administration.

She was a magna cum laude graduate of NSU in August 2007 in business administration, and also was a key contributor on the Lady Demons’ 2005 NCAA Tournament team that won the Southland Conference Tournament.

Crowell is the academic coordinator for the sports of soccer, women’s basketball, men’s and women’s track, volleyball, and veteran football. She also heads the Enhanced Academic Program which provides additional help for student-athletes and aids in maintaining a healthy and successful balance between academics and athletics.

Crowell served an internship in the summer of 2008 with the Missouri Sports Hall of Fame, helping stage events supporting a Nationwide Tour golf tournament co-sponsored by the Hall. She also assisted in daily operations of the museum in Springfield, Mo., and helped stage the Missouri High School Basketball All-Stars Game.

Crowell was a member of Alpha Lambda Delta honors society from 2005-2007, graduating in three years with a 3.74 grade point average.

She made the SLC Commissioners’ Academic Honor Roll in the last three seasons she competed for NSU, capped by a 2006 season in which her defense helped the Lady Demons set a school record for least goals allowed per game. Crowell graduated with her Masters of Science in Sport Administration with a 4.0 GPA in May 2009.

2011 Southland Conference Preseason Polls Coaches 1. Central Arkansas (5) 2. UTSA (3) Texas State (2) 4. Lamar (2) 5. Texas-Arlington 6. Sam Houston State 7. Stephen F. Austin 8. McNeese State 9. A&M-Corpus Christi 10. Northwestern State 11. Nicholls State 12. Southeastern Louisiana

In an era of considerable change in intercollegiate athletics, the Southland Conference continues to be a model of innovation, stability and consistent achievement as it celebrates the academic and athletic accomplishments of its member institutions.

What began as a small gathering of college administrators more than 45 years ago, the Southland Conference has transformed itself into a dynamic and respected consortium of 12 member universities in three states. Beginning with a historic meeting of five institutions in Dallas on March 15, 1963, that included current members Lamar University (then Lamar State College of Technology) and the University of Texas at Arlington (then Arlington State College), the Southland Conference set on an extraordinary course that has proven successful well into its fifth decade of existence.

On July 1, 2006, the Southland Conference commemorated another milestone as the league membership reached 12, marking the largest configuration ever for the organization. The addition of the University of Central Arkansas and Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi expanded the Southland into the Little Rock metro area and into the eighth largest city in Texas. Central Arkansas and A&M-Corpus Christi enhanced the Southland Conference in innumerable ways, including athletic and academic successes, strong and principled leadership, and strong fan support and media coverage.

In addition to its two newest members, the Southland Conference lineup also consists of Lamar University, McNeese State University, Nicholls State University, Northwestern State University, Sam Houston State University, Southeastern Louisiana University, Stephen F. Austin State University, the University of Texas at Arlington, the University of Texas at San Antonio, and Texas State University-San Marcos.

All told, the revised membership of the Southland encompasses more than 180,000 current students and an alumni base of approximately 920,000. Famous alums from Southland Conference schools include former President Lyndon B. Johnson (Texas State), former CBS news anchor Dan Rather (Sam Houston State), retired U.S. Central Command General Tommy Franks (UT Arlington), NBA executive Joe Dumars (McNeese State), ABC news anchor Robin Roberts (Southeastern Louisiana), country music star George Strait (Texas State), Major League Baseball stars Hunter Pence (UT Arlington), Kevin Millar (Lamar) and Ben Broussard (McNeese State), NBA legend Scottie Pippen (Central Arkansas) and actor Lou Diamond Phillips (UT Arlington).

The cities of the Southland are diverse and progressive, ranging from international business and cultural centers such as the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex, San Antonio and the New Orleans area, to the historical cities of Nacogdoches, Texas, and Natchitoches, La., to the home of the modern oil boom, Beaumont, Texas, to the unique Cajun French cultures found in the Louisiana cities of Thibodaux and Lake Charles. Southland Conference institutions also draw large numbers of students from the metropolitan areas of Houston, Little Rock, Baton Rouge, Austin, and Shreveport.

The Southland sponsors 17 championship sports, all at the NCAA Division I level. The eight men’s sports include baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, tennis, and indoor and outdoor track and field. The women compete for nine championships in basketball, cross country, golf, soccer, softball, tennis, indoor and outdoor track and field, and volleyball. The conference earns automatic qualification to NCAA championships in baseball, men’s and women’s basketball, men’s and women’s cross country, football, men’s and women’s golf, women’s soccer, softball, men’s and women’s tennis, and volleyball.
