2013 Lady Demon Volleyball

A Look Back at 2012 After laying down the first winning season the program has seen since 1987, the Northwestern State volleyball team is proud to mark 2012 as the most successful season in team history.

The Lady Demons finished 20-13 overall, 12-6 in the Southland Conference for a third-place tie with Texas A&M-Corpus Christi at the end of the regular season.

No. 4 seeded NSU returned to the SLC tournament for the second year in a row to face No. 5 Stephen F. Austin. They put up two strong sets before falling to the Ladyjacks 3-2.

On top of earning its highest regular season finish and tournament seeding, Northwestern also posted its most Southland wins (12). NSU’s 20 overall wins are the most of any Lady Demon team since 1975.

The 2012 team went undefeated against Louisiana opponents and beat every SLC team besides Central Arkansas at least one time.

The Lady Demons also had a phenomenal year individually with four current athletes earning spots in the record books.

Stacey DiFrancesco earned First Team All-Southland Conference recognition after leading the team in kills and aces while also recording 14 double-doubles. Her 385 kills are fifth in the NSU single-season kills ledger and her 1,244 attempts stand at second.

The outside hitter also made her way into the career kills and attempts standings. She has totaled 809 kills (7th) and 2,634 attempts (6th) in just two seasons.

great.

Keelie Arneson earned First Team All-SLC accolades as well after finishing second in the conference in digs at 5.00 per set. The Tomball, Texas native broke the single-season digs record, collecting an astonishing 618, to surpass her own record of 539.

Arneson’s 1,157 career-digs come in at third in NSU history. Additionally, the sophomore was named SLC Defensive Player of the Week for the weeks of Sept. 10 and Sept. 24.

“Keelie just continues to get better,” said Hernesman.

“She probably knows our defense as well as us coaches do right now. We try to give her the freedom to trust her instincts because she is a tremendous athlete and one of the best liberos in the conference.”

Glynna Johnson recorded a team-high and NSU fifthbest 82 block assists. The freshman also produced on the offensive end, hitting for an SLC sixth-best percentage of .305. Johnson registered 15 matches with a hitting percentage of .300 or better.

Vanessa Coleman also earned a spot in the single-season block assists list, collecting a personal-best 81 (6th).

“I think a lot of the players in this program are going to dot the record books by the time they get done.

They are very talented individuals and I don’t know that this program has had a collection of players with this level talent in the past.

Arneson’s 1,157 career-digs come in at third in NSU history. Additionally, the sophomore was named SLC Defensive Player of the Week for the weeks of Sept. 10 and Sept. 24.

“I think one thing that a lot of people don’t know is that Stacey was playing most of the season injured,” said Hernesman. “She has had some shoulder issues so for her to improve despite the injuries was great to see and is a credit to how determined she is for us to be Vanessa Coleman also earned a spot in the single-seawww.nsudemons.com • @NSUDemonsVB • facebook.com/forkemdemons

2013 shaping to be a thriller son block assists list, collecting a personal-best 81 (6th).

After capturing the program’s best season less than nine months ago, the Northwestern State volleyball team looks to bring nothing less than their best in 2013.

“Our players have made it no secret that they expect to be one of the top teams in the Southland Conference once again,” said Hernesman.

“Our program goal will never change - to win a conference championship. I believe that we’ve made great strides in many areas.” the rundown The squad returns nine letter winners and welcomes six freshman in hopes of continuing the record-breaking tradition the Hernesman’s have established.

Junior Emily Johnson and freshman Natalie Jaeger look to fill a very important role at setter.

Caiti O’Connell collected preseason All-SLC second team accolades.

Johnson put up a strong spring season this past year, while Jaeger is not afraid of risks and quick decision-making.

“Although Emily has been with us for the past two years, we have two new players at the setting position,” said Hernesman. “Emily ran our offense this past spring and has really stepped up in this role. We’re excited to see how her and Natalie will perform this season.”

“On top of the freshman coming in, we also have some upperclassmen leadership as we return three extremely talented outside hitters in Stacey DiFrancesco, Caiti O’Connell and Mackenzie Neely,” said Hernesman.

DiFrancesco led the 2012 squad in kills and aces while recording 14 double-doubles to receive First Team All-Southland Conference. Her 385 kills are fifth in the NSU single-season kills ledger and her 1,244 attempts stand at second.

Sophomore middle blocker Glynna Johnson.

O’Connell is also a strong force on the outside after recording 337 kills and posting a 3.04 kills per set average. These two returners will be joined by freshman Lauren Agan and Ashley Elrod who bring strong talent and experience to the squad.

“We return two-year starter Vanessa Coleman, full-time starter Glynna Johnson and Amanda Kunz, who made tremendous strides the past spring,” said Hernesman.

Junior Mackenzie Neely made a strong transition from the middle to the right side last year and will be dangerous if teams do not prepare properly, while freshman Aaliyah Smith brings natural athletic ability and room to grow on the outside.

First Team All-SLC recipient Keelie Arneson finished 2012 second in the conference in digs at 5.00 per set while breaking her own digs record after just two seasons at libero.

“Keelie is an amazing player to watch just in the way she moves and her sense of fearlessness,” said Hernesmen. “She competes really hard and is very instinctive.”

Lone senior Jessica Guitterrez brings experience and utility in her abilities to play in the back-court. Freshman Bailey Martin joins the squad after aiding Lovejoy high school in fivestraight state championships and a successful run at the USA Volleyball Junior National Championships where her Junior Olympic Team won the 18-Open championship crown. Fellow freshman Danielle Sellari brings energy and speed to the floor while also possessing strong defensive skills.

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 nearly 50 years ago, the Southland Conference has transformed itself into a dynamic and respected consortium of 11 member universities in four states. Beginning with a historic meeting of five institutions in Dallas on March 15, 1963, that included current member Lamar University (then Lamar State College of Technology), the Southland Conference set on an extraordinary course that has proven successful well into its fifth decade of existence.

The successful transformation continues. On Oct. 11, 2011, the Southland Conference announced the addition of Oral Roberts University, effective for the 2012-13 academic year, marking the league’s first entry into the state of Oklahoma and the Tulsa metropolitan area. Shortly thereafter, on Nov. 21, the Southland announced the addition of Houston Baptist University for the 2013-14 academic year, giving the league an 11th member and its first institution in the region’s largest city, home to significant student-recruitment and alumni bases. The league added Abilene Christian, University of New Orleans and Incarnate Word to the schedule beginning in 2013.

The cities of the Southland are diverse and progressive, ranging from international business and cultural centers such as Houston, New Orleans, Tulsa and Little Rock, 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 Dallas-Fort Worth, San Antonio, Baton Rouge, Austin, and Shreveport.

2013 Lady Demon Volleyball

Dr. Randall J. Webb Northwestern State President

Dr. Randall J. Webb stated when he became Northwestern State University’s 18th president in July of 1996 that his primary objective would be to help make his Alma Mater the best institution it could be. Beginning his 18th year, it’s clear that Webb is achieving that admirable goal.

Enrollment has reached record levels during Webb’s tenure as president and exceeded 10,500 for the first time in history in the fall of 2004.

Webb has also been at the forefront in recent years of moving the university toward higher admission standards, which has resulted in some enrollment declines but in the enrollment of students with greater academic potential

and aptitude.

Retention has increased at the university, the average ACT score of students has gone up, and high school student leaders are enrolling in Northwestern in record numbers. There has been a substantial increase in the number of high school valedictorians and salutatorians among first-time freshmen at the university.

External funding for NSU has also increased dramatically under Webb’s leadership. In the first capital campaign in its history, the university received $32.7 million to far exceed its goal of $18.84 million. That funding included the establishment of numerous endowed chairs and professorships 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 foundations 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 was completed in May 2012. 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 campus-wide 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 NatchitochesNorthwestern 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 Long Valley,N.J., with their 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 Only a handful of people have served Northwestern State as long as Jerry Pierce has, and nobody has done so in a more understated manner.

Beginning his 49th year on the university’s staff, Pierce’s impact on NSU and the city of Natchitoches is indelible. He’s never wanted or gotten top billing, but consistently, he gets results to benefit the university.

He begins his 23rd 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 had already served his alma mater, adopted hometown and state with distinction. In his role as vice president, he oversees university operations in athletics, alumni and development, public and media relaNSU Athletic Council tions and assists President Dr. Randall J. Webb in governmental affairs Jody Biscoe (Chair) activities. Many of those duties were his since the 1970s as he worked Kaymin Carter under four previous presidents as Northwestern advanced from NAIA Lyn Christophe to NCAA College Division to NCAA Division I athletic status in 1977.

Catherine Faucheaux A 1961 graduate of Northwestern, Pierce served as trainer/ Cole Gentry manager for the Demon football team during his college years, workKelee Grimes ing closely with legendary coach Jack Clayton. After earning his jourSteve Gruesbeck nalism degree, Pierce went to work for the New Orleans Times PicaMarcus Jones yune, serving as a reporter and editor. He was named executive sports Natalie Laurence editor at the age of 24.

Tara McKenney (Student) In 1965, he chose to raise his two sons in Natchitoches and reDr. Charles Pellegrin turned to NSU as sports information director. He was promoted to Dr. Pat Pierson news bureau director two years later and assumed additional responSteve Story sibilities in athletics, alumni affairs and other areas through the years.

Dr. Mark Swanstrom

He founded, in 1972, the Louisiana Sports Hall of Fame facility Ed Ward in Prather Coliseum on the NSU campus, providing a home for an Dr. Randall Webb entity created in 1958. He established annual induction activities that remain in place nearly four decades later, and served as director of the Ex-Officio Members Hall for 19 years until his promotion to vice president in 1990 forced Greg Burke him to step aside from the volunteer post.

Carrie Crowell

He helped guide Northwestern into three athletic conferences Dustin Eubanks (Trans America, 1979; Gulf Star, 1983; Southland, 1987) and NCAA Roxanne Freeman Division I status in 1977. He is a past president of the Southland and Dr. Patrice Moulton has served the conference through other offices and committee posiDr. Vicki Parrish tions.

Jerry Pierce In 1994, he was named one of Louisiana’s 20 most influential sports figures by the Times-Picayune. Also on the list were New Orleans Saints owner Tom Benson, LSU athletic director Joe Dean and basketball coach Dale Brown, and Grambling football coaching legend Eddie Robinson.

His salesmanship and managerial skills were instrumental in convincing Tri-Star Productions to film the 1989 smash hit movie Steel Magnolias, with an all-star cast including Julia Roberts, Sally Field and Dylan McDermott in Natchitoches and on the NSU campus. The movie’s impact on tourism in Natchitoches continues to resonate more than two decades later.

Pierce is regarded as one of the most effective legislative liaisons for Louisiana’s higher education system. He is also a popular after dinner speaker and master of ceremonies who has spoken at hundreds of events since 1965.

In addition to his administrative responsibilities, Pierce is a member of the Journalism Department faculty. He is the author of one book and editor of two others and has written thousands of editorials, columns, features and other articles for newspapers and magazines.

Pierce and his wife Regina, a teacher, live on Cane River Lake in Natchitoches. He has two sons, Randy and Rick, both NSU graduates; and three grandchildren, twins Evan and Amanda, 23, and Miranda, 12, and two stepchildren, Nicholas and Natalie.

Greg Burke

Director of Athletics The Burke File

AGE: 56 (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 18th 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 or Southland Conference 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 February, he was presented the “Outstanding Contributions to Amateur Football Award” by the north Louisiana chapter of the National Football Foundation and College Football Hall of Fame. Two years ago, 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). Burke was the 2010-11 president of the Football Championship Subdivision Athletics Directors Association.

About to begin a term on the NCAA Division I Committee on Academic Performance, Burke previously served on the prestigious NCAA Championships/Sports Management Cabinet.

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. 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.

Burke’s 17 years as athletic director include 35 Southland Conference regular-season or tournament championships, 59 All-American and Academic All-American student athletes, and three U.S. Olympic competitors. Twenty NSU teams have taken part in NCAA or WNIT postseason competition.

All of the school’s athletic facilities have undergone nearly $7 million in improvements in the past four years. Burke spearheaded a $2 million series of sponsorships for new scoreboards installed for 2008-09 at all NSU athletic venues; the $700,000 Second Century Circle fencing project for athletic venues; and a $500,000 softball grandstand project completed earlier this year.

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 has displayed a remarkable ability to hire dynamic head coaches, notably current staffers Mike McConathy, Louisiana’s all-time career basketball wins leader; 2013 Louisiana softball coach of the Year Donald Pickett; Hugh and Stephanie Hernesman, who just led the volleyball program to its best season in the 31-year history of the program; and several whose success at Northwestern State propelled them to national prominence in subsequent positions.

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. Along with the aforementioned volleyball surge, NSU’s soccer program was the first in Louisiana to reach the NCAA Tournament. Softball and tennis made NCAA Tournament appearances in 2013, the second in four seasons for Lady Demon tennis.

Burke has established a high standard for NSU Athletics in 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 has remained at that level.

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.

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.

His wife, Susu, is a Natchitoches native, NSU graduate and an elementary teacher. Their 19-year-old daughter, Catherine, graduated from St. Mary’s High Greg Burke with wife, Susu, and daughter, Catherine.

School in May of 2012 and attends Louisiana Tech.

In 2001, the LSWA presented its prestigious Mac Russo Award to Ireland for his contributions to the organization. In 1999, Ireland was awarded honorary membership in the Graduate N Club at NSU by the university’s group of athletic lettermen for his service to Northwestern and its athletic program, and in 2003 he was given full membership.

He was appointed by President Dr. Randall Webb to serve a two-year term on the inaugural University Planning Council in 1997-99.

A member of the Blue Key National Honor Fraternity and a student government senator while completing a journalism degree from Northwestern, Ireland was editor of the student newspaper “Current Sauce” as a sophomore before going to work for the Shreveport Times.

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. Recently, he was appointed to the NAADAC - National Addiction Studies & Standards Collaborative Committee. This past year, Jody was selected to serve on the United States Health and Human Services – Substance Abuse & Mental Health Service Administration Expert Panel concerning workforce issues.

Jody’s married to his wife,Veronica (Roni), an avid runner, and daughter Roxy is a senior co-captain on the varsity cheerleading squad and Lady Tiger basketball team at St. Mary’s School. All are devoted Demon fans!
