2007 Outlook The Return of 11 seniors and seven position starters has Schoenrock’s Tigers hunting for the program’s first NCAA bid since 1994
Kyle Norrid
Michael Murray
Bill Moss
Adam Amar
Memphis returns its entire infield from last year. This four-man crew will be expected to provide offensive production and stabilize the Tigers’ defense.
A 19-game turnaround in the win column resulted in a 32-28 finish and Memphis’ first appearance in the Conference USA Tournament since the 2001 season. With the return of 11 seniors, seven position starters and a year of experience under the pitching staff ’s belt, it’s no wonder head coach Schoenrock is excited about the possibilities the 2007 campaign holds. However, the goal for Schoenrock’s club is more than just finishing above .500. The Tigers are after an NCAA Regional appearance, which would be its first in 13 years. The challenge for this year’s team will be continuing its success from last year to carry on the process of building a strong program at the University of Memphis. The Tigers return 20 letterwinners from last year’s team that exceeded all preseason expectations. Along with its core returnees, eight redshirt freshmen become eligible for competition, and the program welcomes in a pair of four-year transfers, a junior college transfer and seven talented true freshmen. “This is obviously the most experienced team we have had since I’ve been here,” said Schoenrock. “This team wants to take the next step and has the ingredients to due so.” Memphis features a potent offensive attack led by senior first baseman Adam Amar. The Tigers, who ranked 30th nationally with a
.315 team batting average last season and 28th in scoring, return 12 of their key offensive contributors. Amar headlines a talented crew that includes four seniors—Amar, Bill Moss, Michael Murray and Kyle Norrid—in the starting infield, seniors Will Petersen and Ben Grisham in left and rightfield, and two-year starter K.K. Chalmers in centerfield. Amar, who is on pace to become Memphis’ alltime RBI leader, led C-USA with a .395 batting average and slammed 10 homers in 2006. Moss ripped 24 doubles, while Murray and Petersen were named to the C-USA All-Tournament Team. Norrid, who hit .324 with 45 RBI and 14 doubles, provides both offensive and defensive stability at third base. Chalmers, an All-C-USA pick in 2006, returns after tying the program’s single-season stolen base record with 39 as a sophomore. He needs just 11 swipes to become Memphis all-time stolen base leader. Also returning is the Tigers’ leading power bat in senior DH Joey Lieberman. Lieberman, who led the team with 13 home runs a year ago, banged out the most round trippers by a Memphis slugger since Dan Uggla knocked 18 in 2001. Coaching Staff An important factor in building a program is maintaining continuity within a coaching staff. Schoenrock has done just that with recruiting coordinator and pitching coach, Mike Federico, and first base coach and recruiter, Jerry Zulli, back for their third season together. In two years, Federico’s pitching staff has improved,

while Zulli’s offense has seen a dramatic increase in total production. “It helps our players develop when they can get comfortable with a certain coaching style and philosophy,” Schoenrock said. Four new members join Schoenrock’s coaching staff for the 2007 season. Allen Osborne is a new volunteer assistant and camps coordinator. Osborne has spent several years in the college game, most recently as the hitting coach at East Carolina University, where his offense set or broke six offensive records, including hitting 103 home runs and 153 doubles in 2004. He spent time on the Georgia coaching staff with Schoenrock in 2000 and 2001. Other first time Tiger staff members include Al Woods, who joins the program as the Director of Baseball Operations, and former Tigers Cory Barton and Jordan Tolliver, who will serve as student assistants this year. “Our program will benefit from having a staff that is very familiar with how I operate,” Schoenrock said. “I am excited to have someone with the experience that Allen has in this role, as well as having two former players on the staff. This is by far the most experienced coaching staff that we have had in my time at Memphis. Once again, I feel very blessed to have these people aiding in our efforts.”
2007 Outlook Pitching Pitching will be the key to the success of this year’s squad. The return of seven hurlers, including All-C-USA pitcher Scott McGregor, senior starters Philip Utley and Lance Scoggins, and senior reliever Dusty Davis, and a more mature pitching staff should give the Tigers a chance for success. Ben Grisham’s emergence as a pitcher late in the season has the coaching staff encouraged about the role he could play in 2007. McGregor earned both All-Conference USA and All-C-USA Freshman recognition after going 7-3 and tossing three complete-game victories in his freshman campaign. McGregor and Utley led the staff with 50 strikeouts, while Davis went 4-1 Dusty Davis Scott McGregor Matt Yokley as Memphis’ top option out of the bullpen.

2007 Outlook improve our pitching and avoiding injuries. We have a very experienced frontline, but our depth will play a big role also,” said Schoenrock. Last year’s depth came from experienced upperclassmen, while the depth on the 2007 team will be provided by younger players. Senior Josh Irvin and junior Chris Newsom will both see ample amounts of time in the Tigers’ lineup. Memphis’ most capable reserve hitter, Irvin hit .409 in 22 pinch-hit at-bats in 2006. Newsom, who made 35 starts in right and center field as a freshman, will join Irvin as a solid backup crew for the U of M outfield.

“Basically, the philosophy is to keep the double play in order at all times and the ability to defend the gaps,” said Schoenrock. “That’s where speed in the outfield comes into play—a lot more so on the road than at Nat Buring.”

Speedster K.K. Chalmers enters his third season as the starting centerfielder for the Tigers. On the corners, the Tigers have four guys chasing two jobs. Returning starter, senior Will Petersen, anchored left field the majority of the season and will get the starting nod this year. He will be battled by true freshman Tyler Huelsing, who is expected to put up solid numbers in his career at Memphis. Right field features another three-way battle between Ben Grisham and Josh Irvin, who platooned at the position in 2006, and junior Chris Newsom. Seniors Grisham and Irvin are experienced players in C-USA, while Newsom has been a role player in his two years at Memphis. Newsom will also backup Chalmers in centerfield. Schoenrock is excited about the offensive and defensive capabilities of this outfield. The Tiger outfield lost Trey Wiedman for the season to shoulder surgery in the off-season, which will create opportunities for other younger players to emerge and get at-bats. Reserves The area with the most questions will come from the Tiger reserves. A year after having the luxury of plugging a talented upper classman into the lineup late in the game, Memphis will depend on inexperienced youth to fill the backup roles this year. “The key to our success will be to continue to

Schedule With an upgrade in the talent level that Schoenrock puts on the field, there comes an increase in the strength of competition. Memphis will add Clemson to an already strong schedule that includes the likes of Ole Miss, Mississippi State and a pair of league series at perennial powers Rice and Tulane. The Tigers put their five-year, season-opening win streak on the line when they make the trip to Oxford on February 20. A pair of local tournaments—the Service Academies Spring Classic and the AutoZone Classic—will follow in weeks two and three. Memphis will travel to NCAA College World Series participant Clemson for a three-game series, March 9-11. The Tigers will also play host to C-USA powers Houston and Southern Miss as part of their 27-game home schedule. “We have a strong schedule this year,” stated Schoenrock. “This is definitely the most challenging schedule we’ve put together in my time as coach at Memphis. With the addition of Clemson to the schedule, along with our regular Conference USA schedule, this is the type of schedule that the NCAA Selection Committee likes to see. It should build a solid RPI.”

Head Coach
Third Season • Tennessee Tech (1984) The 16th baseball coach in school history, Daron Schoenrock enters his third full season at the controls of Memphis baseball. After a rocky inaugural season, Schoenrock confirmed what many in the coaching world believed to be true when he was hired—that he was one of the top new head coaches in the business and that he could turn around a once successful Memphis baseball program. Schoenrock inherited a program that had lost its top three pitchers and 10 seniors from 2004, and struggled through a 13-42 campaign in 2005. He has wasted little time working to get the Tiger baseball program back on track, signing 25 newcomers for the 2006 season, including four four-year transfers, a National Junior College Player of the Year honoree and five major league draftees. Schoenrock brought those additions together and led the Tiger to a 32-win season in just his second campaign. The 32 wins were the most wins for Schoenrock in his three years as a head coach and the most by a Memphis baseball club since 2001. The 19-game turnaround tied for the second-best winning turnaround in the country in 2006 and also tied for the best turnaround in Tiger baseball history—tying that of the 2001 team. Along with that 32-28 mark came Memphis’ first appearance in the Conference USA semifinals since the 2001 season.

Focused on maintaining that success, Schoenrock has added a few more pieces to the puzzle, hiring Allen Osborne and Al Woods to his staff as well as bringing in talented youth to complement the wealth of experience on the Memphis roster.

Hired on June 29, 2004, Schoenrock immediately brought two talented young coaches aboard, in Michael Federico and Jerry Zulli. He has taken on the tasks of a much-needed renovation of Nat Buring Stadium, marketing season ticket campaigns, reorganizing the Bullpen Club, and revamping the Diamond Darlings program to help elevate the program’s image. Schoenrock is also making a conscious effort to reach Tiger baseball alumni, having honored the 1994 team in 2005 and the 1986 team in 2006.
Playing Experience College Four-year letterwinner at Tennessee Tech University (1981-84)
The difference he has made has been evident off the field as well, as in just his first semester a more disciplined baseball team recorded the program’s highest GPA ever. They once again recorded a program-high GPA in the fall 2005 semester. A mirror of its coach, his squad also has been involved in community service efforts, such as visiting children at the Ronald McDonald House and St. Jude every year since his hiring. The Tigers added Streets Ministries to its goodwill efforts this year, preparing a meal and interacting with the inner city youth in a visit to the community outreach organization in the fall of 2006. Schoenrock came to Memphis after several successful years as an assistant coach. Before taking the post as the Tigers’ skipper, he spent three seasons as an assistant coach on the Mississippi State staff—his fifth year in association with State’s coaching legend Ron Polk. His primary responsibilities included coaching Bulldog pitchers, and overseeing MSU’s recruiting efforts. Schoenrock also coordinated the activities of the Bulldogs’ foster-parent program. Regarded as one of college baseball’s premier pitching coaches, Schoenrock has sent over 30 pitchers under his tutelage to the professional level. Most recently three Bulldog

Head Coach Coaching Background
Daron, Bret, Erik and Carol Schoenrock pitchers were taken in the 2004 First-Year Player Draft. The 2006 Major League Baseball season was special to Schoenrock as two of his former pitchers achieved national recognition. Former Kentucky Wildcat Brandon Webb won the National League Cy Young Award, while former Mississippi State Bulldogs John Papelbon was the runner-up for the American League Rookie of the Year honor. Both were named to the Major League All-Star Game. Prior to joining Polk at MSU, he served as the pitching coach in 2000 and 2001 on the University of Georgia staff. In Athens, he developed a Bulldog pitching staff that, in 2001, helped boost Georgia to its first SEC championship in 47 years and its first appearance in the NCAA College World Series since 1990. He launched his affiliation with Southeastern Conference baseball in 1998 at the University of Kentucky. He served two seasons on the coaching staff of former MSU baseball staffer Keith Madison, coaching the UK pitchers and catchers and heading up the Wildcats’ recruiting program in 1998 and 1999. His coaching expertise gained national acclaim during a highly-successful eight-year coaching stint at Birmingham Southern. His Panther pitchers improved their staff earned run averages each season and helped lead Birmingham Southern to the 1995 NAIA World Series. In the summer that followed, Schoenrock earned a position as the short-season pitching coach for the Chicago White Sox’s affiliate in the Appalachian League. Schoenrock was a four-year starting pitcher under Coach David Mays at Tennessee Tech University. He earned his bachelor’s degree in secondary education with a certification in biology before launching his coaching career as a graduate assistant coach there in 1985. He continued his coaching career as a graduate assistant coach under ABCA Hall of Famer Johnny Reagan at Murray State University, where he earned a master’s degree in education in 1987. Schoenrock undertook his first head coaching job back in 1988 at Lincoln Memorial University in Harrogate, Tenn. He was 25-52 in his two years as coach of the Railsplitters. Schoenrock guided LMU to its first postseason appearance in five years and was named the Tennessee Valley Athletic Conference Coach of the Year in 1989. A native of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, Schoenrock has been involved in numerous community outreach efforts, sharing his knowledge at coaching clinics and banquets nationwide and making several appearances for speaking engagements across the country, as well as in the Memphis area since taking the head coaching post at the U of M.

Michael Federico is in his third year as assistant coach at the University of Memphis. Hired in July 2004 as Coach Schoenrock’s top assistant, Federico is primarily responsible for the instruction of the Tigers’ pitching staff and catchers. In addition, he will coordinate the Tigers’ aggressive recruiting efforts, as well as overseeing operations of the Tiger Baseball Bullpen Club. Under Federico’s coaching, the Tiger pitching staff—a staff that was depleted after losing its three starters to the Major League Draft in 2004—improved on a sub par 2005 showing. With Federico at the controls, the pitching staff did its fair share to ensure a successful season. In more games, Fed’s staff tossed more complete games, logged more saves, while yielding fewer walks and holding opponents to nearly 60 fewer runs. In addition, the staff gave up fewer home runs, while striking out more than 100 more batters. Federico’s mentoring also produced the program’s third Conference USA All-conference pitcher and second All-freshman selection in Scott McGregor. The Tiger pitching staff lowered its ERA in 2006 and trimmed its opponent’s batting average by 15 points. A two-time Junior College Coach of the Year honoree, Federico spent three years (2002-2004) as the head coach at Meridian Community College before taking the assistant post at Memphis. In 2003 and 2004, he led his squad to the JUCO World Series in Grand Junction, Colo. Federico led MCC to a 46-14 finish and a ninth-place finish in the JUCO World Series in 2004. Several of his players received accolades following the 2004 season, as two players were named as All-Americans, four players received AllRegion 23 honors, and nine Eagles were voted to the All-State team. Federico was named region XXIII and Southeastern District Coach of the Year. In 2003, he led the Eagles to a fifth-place finish in the Alpine Bank JUCO World Series in Grand Junction, Colo. The Eagles also won the MACJC Central Division, Region XXIII and Southeastern Regional Championships. Federico was honored with Region XXIII and Southeastern District Coach of the Year accolades for his accomplishments in 2003. Before taking over the head duties, Federico served as the assistant coach for two years, working with pitchers and catchers. As an assistant, he helped lead the Eagles to two conference championships, one region, and one sectional championship and a trip to the 2000 JUCO World Series. Prior to joining the staff at Meridian, Federico served as a graduate assistant coach at the University of Southern Mississippi for two years. In 1999, his last year with USM, he helped lead the Eagles to the NCAA Regionals. As a player, Federico was a catcher at USM from 1995-1997. He served as the team captain his senior year. He started his collegiate career at Hinds Community College in 1993-1995, where he was the starting catcher with the Eagles and helped lead his teams to back-to-back Division II World Series. While at USM, Federico received his undergraduate degree in physical education in 1998, and his master’s degree in sports administration in 1999. A native of Slidell, La., Federico attended Pope John Paul II High School, where he was the starting catcher for four years. During this time, he was named All-State, All-District, All-Metro and team captain.

Assistant Coach
Third Season • New Orleans (2002) Jerry Zulli enters his third full season on the Memphis Tigers’ coaching staff. Zulli is responsible for the instruction of the Tiger hitters and outfielders, as well as coordinating various travel accommodations. He has also taken on a significant role in the recruiting process, as well as placing Tiger players on teams in collegiate-level wooden bat leagues to hone and improve their skills in the summer. Zulli, brings an extra dimension of youth, energy and enthusiasm in his philosophy of teaching the offensive part of the game and has an excellent ability to evaluate talent. The players have bought into his philosophy, as is evident in Memphis’ 699 hits, 453 runs scored and program-best 130 doubles in 2006. Under Zulli’s guidance, the 2006 offense became the second Tiger offense ever to post top-five totals in games played, hits, RBI, runs scored, doubles and total bases. In addition, Adam Amar, Bill Moss, Kyle Norrid and Will Petersen each belted over 80 hits, marking the first time in Memphis baseball history that four Tiger hitters have amassed at least 80 hits in a single season. Zulli has also made his mark on the program off the field, as the team’s academic supervisor. As a team, Memphis put together the highest GPA ever in the fall of 2004 and then surpassed that feat with a record-high cumulative GPA in the fall of 2005. On the field, Coach “Z” also serves as the third base coach during the season. While “Z” coaches third base, his product on the field constantly attests his coaching ability. Not known as an offensive juggernaut when he took over as hitting coach, Zulli has transformed the Memphis lineup into one of the most feared in Conference USA. A year after hitting just .262 as a team, Memphis had a breakout season as a team at the plate, tying Rice for the league lead and ranking 30th nationally with a .315 batting average. The Tigers’ high-octane offense wrapped up the season ranked in the country’s top-30 (28th at 7.6 runs per game) in scoring after putting up 10 or more runs in 17 times. Zulli’s philosophy resulted in a pair of All C-USA selections in Amar and K.K. Chalmers. Amar, a 2007 preseason AllAmerican, led Conference USA in hitting with a .395 average to earn first team All-C-USA honors. He hit .459 in league play—third highest ever in C-USA history. Chalmers hit .312 and stole a league-best 39 bases, but showed another facet of Zulli’s tutoring as he earned recognition as one of the conference’s top outfielders. A native of New Orleans, La., Zulli was an assistant coach under Craig Young at Middle Georgia College from 2002-04. While at Middle Georgia, he was the team’s hitting instructor and outfield coach. He was also responsible for coordinating the Warriors recruiting efforts. In his final two years at MGC, 12 Warriors were drafted by Major League teams, including Tiger senior Will Petersen. Under Zulli’s assistantship, the Warriors posted a 130-51 record and a 72 percent winning percentage. In 2004, the Warriors placed sixth in the JUCO World Series, and ended the year with a 45-17 record. The 2002 Warriors also advanced to the JUCO World Series and ranked sixth in the final National Junior College Poll. He also spent the summer of 2004 as an assistant coach of the Hyannis Mets of the Cape Cod Summer League. Under his assistance, the Mets advanced to the semifinals of the Cape playoffs. Zulli spent the 2003 summer as the assistant for the U-17 East Cobb Braves. Under his instruction, the Braves sent eight players to NCAA Division I baseball programs and captured the 2003 Perfect Game National Championship. Zulli first arrived at MGC in 1997 as a player. In 1999 Zulli helped lead the Warriors with the Region XVII Championship and finish a game away from an East-Central District Championship. During that year, he was a recipient of the Terry Daniels Award. He earned his associate degree in business management from Middle Georgia in 1999. He then transferred to the University of New Orleans where he played under the direction of Coach Randy Bush. Zulli finished his career with the Privateers, where he received his bachelor’s degree in sports management in 2002. He is engaged to Kristen Bell of Lawrenceville, Ga.

Assistant Coach
First Season • Marshall (1996) Allen Osborne begins his first season with the University of Memphis baseball program. Off the field, Osborne will be in charge of the upkeep and maintenance of Tom DeHart Field, as well as overseeing Tiger baseball summer camps, summer youth tournaments held at Nat Buring Stadium and maintaining contact with area high school coaches. On the field, he will take over as the infielders’ and catchers’ instructor. A native of Chesapeake, Ohio, Osborne comes to the Memphis baseball program with a strong coaching background. He spent the 2006 baseball season at Wakefield High School in Raleigh, N.C., where he served as the assistant coach. Prior to his one-year stint in the high school ranks, Osborne spent three years as an assistant at Conference USA opponent East Carolina. There, he worked as the hitting instructor and recruiting coordinator. While at ECU, Osborne’s offense set or broke six offensive records, including hitting 103 home runs and 153 doubles in 2004. He helped guide the 2004 Pirates to a nation-best 47-9 mark, including a 25-5 finish in C-USA play. ECU advanced to the Super Regional series after claiming the Kinston Regional championship. The Pirates finished the year ranked as high as fourth nationally by Collegiate Baseball and USA Today. Osborne broke into the Division I ranks in 1997, at the University of Georgia, when he joined head coach Robert Sapp’s staff as a graduate assistant. As the Bulldog assistant, he worked primarily as the catcher’s coach and assisted with daily administrative duties. Osborne returned to Georgia for his second stint with the Bulldog baseball program following the 1999 season, joining then fellow assistant Daron Schoenrock on Ron Polk’s staff. He served as the hitting and catchers’ coach, as well as assuming the role of equipment manager and on-campus recruiting coordinator. He helped the Bulldogs to a 2001 Southeastern Conference championship, NCAA Regional and Super Regional title en route to an appearance in the College World Series. He spent the 1999 season as an assistant coach at Chipola Junior College in Marianna, Fla. At CJC he coached defense, base running and also served as the recruiting coordinator and hitting instructor. Osborne got his coaching career started in 1996 as an assistant coach for the Cortland Apples of the Northeastern Collegiate League. He took the reins as the head coach of the club a year later and guided them to the NCBL’s Eastern Division title in 1999 and 2000. A four-year letterwinner at Marshall University from 1992-95, Osborne earned Southern Conference Freshman of the Year honors. Osborne earned his bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice from Marshall in 1996. He received his master’s degree in sport management from the University of Georgia in 1998. He is married to former Janey Wheeler. The couple has a one-year old daughter, Ellason Grace.

A native of Trussville, Ala., Barton is a sport management major. He is on track to graduate in May 2007.
Director of Operations • First Season Al Woods begins his first season as the Director of Operations for the University of Memphis baseball program. Woods joins Daron Schoenrock’s staff after spending the last three years as the assistant baseball coach at Southwest Tennessee Community College under former head coach Johnny Ray. A native of Memphis and graduate of Ridgeway High School, Woods’ primary responsibilities will include assisting in game day operations, team travel accommodations and serving as the staff liaison with the Tiger baseball Bullpen Club.

Stan Bronson Jr. A tradition lives on for another year. Every time a Tiger home game reaches the middle of the seventh inning, it is Stan Bronson Jr.’s time in the spotlight. The 77-year-old living legend pops out of the home team’s dugout and heads to the home plate area where he acknowledges the Tiger faithful who have made it out to that day’s game. The fans, in turn, acknowledge Bronson, who has served as the Tigers’ batboy since 1958. Stan attends every practice for both the Tiger football and baseball teams and makes cameo appearances at Lady Tiger basketball games and volleyball matches. He has been a Tiger baseball fixture for more than 48 years and the U of M is looking forward to many more years with Stan in the dugout. “Stan is a cornerstone of University of Memphis baseball. Our players love having Stan around and I look to continue the tradition of having Stan as the official batboy of University of Memphis baseball.” —Head Coach Daron Schoenrock

Turchin Stadium Scheduled to open in April 2007, the new Turchin Stadium will feature a grandstand designed of structural steel and a new FieldTurf playing surface. Chairback seating will be nearly triple that of the original Turchin while private suites, an open-air club suite, a partially covered seating area and a new press box all highlight the new facility. Dedicated on the eve of March 11, 1991, Turchin Stadium has played host to the 1992 Metro Conference Tournament as well as the 1997 and 2003 C-USA Tournaments and the 2001 NCAA New Orleans Regional. Homefield advantage came into play in all three tournaments as the Green Wave won the 1992 and 2001 tournaments while advancing to the semifinals in 1997 and the finals in 2003. The grandstand, which currently has more than 300 chair-back seats and backed benches, can hold in excess of 2,500 fans. Room also exists down each foul line for a total seating capacity of 3,500. The park measures 325 down the lines, 370 to the power alleys and 400 feet to straight-away center. The fence is eight-feet high in right and left field, and rises to 12 feet in centerfield. Lights were added in 1991 with eight banks of between 22 and 30 lights illuminating Turchin Stadium. Also new to the stadium in 1991 was the addition of permanent seating, a luxury box, a press box and a state-of-the-art computerized scoreboard.

2006 Year-In-Review
Top-50 Recruiting Class Pays Dividends, Tigers advance to C-USA Semifinals for first time since 2001 The 2006 baseball season will go down as one of the most impressive and productive seasons in Memphis baseball history. Armed with a Top-50 recruiting class that included 25 newcomers, five of which were junior college standouts, and four four-year transfers, head coach Daron Schoenrock and the Tigers posted over 30 wins for just the second time since 1995. Finishing with a 32-28 mark, the Tigers’ 19-game win turnaround tied for second-best in the country and tied for the best improvement in the program’s history. Inclement weather forced the postponement of the season opening series with Ohio, but it only made the Tigers that much hungrier for the season to get underway. Memphis immediately opened the eyes of the college baseball world jumping out to a 3-0 mark with key wins over NCAA participants Alabama, Oklahoma and Notre Dame in the first week of action. The season started with an impressive performance at Alabama as the Tigers needed just two runs in the first Adam Amar (left), K.K. Chalmers (center) and Scott McGregor (right) became the second Tigers trio to garner inning to win their sixth-straight season opener and to All-conference honors in a single season. hand the eventual NCAA top-seed Crimson Tide its first home shutout loss since April 21, 1995—a span of 379 games.
2006 Season Highlights
The road would only get tougher from there, as the Tigers took on NCAA Region host and top-seed Oklahoma in the Service Academies Spring Classic. Freshman hurler Scott McGregor struck out three, scattered three hits and allowed just one unearned run in six innings in his collegiate debut. The Tigers were no-hit through six innings, but managed to knot the score at 1-1 on an RBI in the seventh by Adam Amar. Amar then provided the late-inning heroics, driving home Kyle Norrid on a two-out single to centerfield in the bottom of the ninth inning to propel Memphis to a 2-1 comeback win over the Sooners. Memphis climbed to the top RPI spot on boydsworld.com with a 7-6 extra-inning triumph over Notre Dame. Junior pinch-hitter Joey Lieberman made his first Division I at-bat a memorable one, lifting the first pitch he saw over the left centerfield wall to give Memphis the win. Trailing 5-0 in the top of the sixth inning, the Tigers staged a furious comeback and trailed 5-4 with two outs in the top of the ninth inning. Junior Will Petersen lined an RBIdouble to left centerfield to tie the game to plate Ben Grisham and tie the contest. Lieberman would take care of the rest to improve Memphis to 3-0. Those three wins would anchor one of Memphis’ most productive offensive outputs ever, as the 2006 Tigers began the process of reviving the once-prominent program. “With the excitement of so many new players and the expectations that they brought, to open the season 3-0 was important for our team,” said Schoenrock. “It allowed our players to realize and understand that we could compete with the nation’s elite teams if we take care of the fundamental things that help win games.” A one-run loss to Navy landed the Tigers a runner-up finish in the SASC, but that did not hold the Schoenrock’s upstart crew down as they bounced back with a 9-7 win over UT-Martin and then took two out of three at Nicholls State to improve to 6-3. Robbie Goss and Will Petersen led a 21-hit Tiger attack with four hits each, as Memphis raced to a 17-4 win in the series finale at Nicholls The win clinched the Tigers’ first weekend series win since the final Conference USA weekend of the 2004 season when Memphis defeated Saint Louis, two-games-to-one. Memphis moved to 8-3 with a two-game sweep of Middle Tennessee, but then faltered, dropping three at the hands of Troy. The Trojans, who finished 45-15 and landed a No. 2 seed in the Tuscaloosa Regional, proved to be a tough customer for the Tigers, scoring 55 runs in the three-game series. The Tigers went 3-2 over the next five games leading into the Conference USA schedule. A win over Murray State and a two-game sweep over Southeast Missouri pushed them to 11-6. However, consecutive losses to Ole Miss and Arkansas State sent Memphis into the league slate on a low note. Despite the three big wins to open the season, Memphis knew it had a lot of work to do in league play. They went right to work in the C-USA opener against 14th-ranked Tulane. Amar jacked three home runs and drove in seven runs, while Scott McGregor struck out eight to hold the Green Wave to just four unearned runs as Memphis raced to an 11-4 win in the league opener. The win snapped a four-game losing streak to Tulane over the last two years. Tulane outscored Memphis 17-3 over the final two contests of the series to take the opening league weekend.

Tigers Clinch No. 4-Seed in C-USA Tournament Head coach Daron Schoenrock and the Memphis Tigers equaled the program’s best finish in Conference USA by winning each of its last six league games to finish the regular season CUSA slate with a 13-11 mark. The fourth-place finish equals that of the 1999 team. Memphis Returns to Postseason Play A season after notching just five wins in 30 C-USA contests, Schoenrock has Memphis back in postseason play for its first appearance in the C-USA Tournament since 2004 and just its second since 2000. Wow! What a Turnaround After finishing 13-42 in 2005, Schoenrock guided Memphis to a 32-28 regular-season finish. The 19game improvement tied for the second-highest in the country and tied the 2001 team’s 19-game turnaround for the best in Tiger baseball history. The 2001 Tigers finished 34-24 a year after going 15-37 in 1999. Here is a look at the top turnarounds the nation in 2006 and in Memphis Baseball history. School Increase 2006 2005 1.

2006 Year-In-Review The Tigers rebounded the following weekend in Hattiesburg. A week after holding a powerful Tulane offense to four unearned tallies in a complete game triumph, freshman Scott McGregor posted another dominating performance, striking out seven to push Memphis to a 5-4 win over No. 20 Southern Miss. The win was McGregor’s second complete game win and game the Tigers their 13th win of the year—tying the 2005 win total. A ninthinning rally fell short in the second game of the series as Memphis lost 7-8, but the high octane offense showed up on Sunday’s series finale behind Joey Lieberman’s two home run outing. The Tigers hit four home runs and hammered out 15 hits and trumped the Golden Eagles 15-6 to win its first Conference USA series in two years. With the 15-6 win in the series finale at USM, Memphis began an eight-game win streak. Schoenrock and company reeled off wins against Arkansas-Little Rock and UT-Martin before hitting the road for a three-game league series at Marshall. The series opener was a battle, with Memphis finding itself behind 3-1 in the ninth inning. But shaky pitching from the Thundering Herd bullpen allowed Memphis to score three without the aid of a hit. A pair of walks and three hit batsmen knotted the game at 3-3 before K.K. Chalmers gave Memphis the 4-3 lead with a sac fly to rightfield. Josh Irvin came up with the eventual game-winning hit in the top of the 11th—a ground rule double to centerfielder. An eight-run third inning carried the Tigers to a 14-4 win in game two of the series. Memphis again used a ninthinning rally to send the game into extra innings, and then scored the game-winner in extra frames to complete a 9-8 extra-inning win and sweep of the Herd. Trailing 8-6 and down to its final two outs of regulation, Memphis staged a two-run rally to send the game to the bottom of the ninth. K.K. Chalmers got things going with a lined double to the left centerfield gap. Will Petersen made it a one-run game, 8-7, with a double to the rightfield corner. Bill Moss made it three-straight hits when he reached on an infield single and Kyle Norrid tied it up at 8-8 with a single through the left side. The Tigers won the game in the 10th when Alex Fennell’s RBI single up the middle plated Michael Murray. Memphis finished off the eight-game streak with wins over Murray State and Arkansas State. The streak was the longest such string in 12 years—since the 1994 Tigers reeled off 16-straight wins en route to an NCAA Regional appearance. “The eight-game win streak was when our players started getting comfortable in their roles,” Schoenrock said. The win streak quickly gave way to an eight-game losing streak. Memphis was swept by No. 2 Rice, No. 15 Mississippi State and No. 19 Houston to fall to 21-21. The 16-inning series finale at Houston was the longest in Memphis history since the Tigers battled to a 4-4 tie in 21 innings against the Evansville Aces on March 7, 1999. The contest also tied a Conference USA record for the longest game, taking 4:49 to play. The Tigers got back on track with a pair of routes over Mississippi Valley State. Memphis made it three in a row with a 9-4 series opening win against UAB, but a pair of lackluster performances in a Saturday doubleheader resulted a series loss to the Blazers. The losing streak was stretched to four games after the Tigers were swept in two games at Middle Tennessee. Memphis saved its best baseball for the final stretch of the season, winning its last six regular season C-USA games. The Tiger offense put its best three-game effort together at UCF, scoring 41 runs in the series. Scott McGregor tossed seven solid innings to post his sixth win of the season and was backed by a 20-hit performance from the offense. Behind a career-high 10 strikeouts from Philip Utley and 10 runs from the Memphis offense, Schoenrock’s bunch sealed an appearance in the C-USA Tournament. Memphis finished off the sweep with an 11-3 win in the series finale. The Tigers were primed for a matchup with rival Ole Miss in its next outing. Starter Lance Scoggins struck out two, allowed just two hits and held the 18th-ranked Rebels to one run through five innings, but was forced out

The Tigers turned double plays in each of the first six innings and then again in the ninth to tie the NCAA record and set a new program mark with seven double plays in a single game. The seven double plays is a new Memphis baseball record and is just the fifth time the feat has been completed in NCAA history. Long Beach State was the last team to turn seven double plays, doing it in 2003. Prior to that, the last time seven double plays had been turned in a single game was back in 1985 when Old Dominion turned seven against Western Kentucky. Miami has recorded seven DP’s twice, back in 1976 and 1971. Amar Puts Up Big Numbers At .459, Memphis junior 1B Adam Amar finished with the third-highest single-season batting average ever in league games, just behind Rice junior shortstop Brian Friday , who hit .468.

The 37 bases swiped in a single-season are second all-time on Memphis’ single-season list. Chalmers had a string of 21-straight stolen bases without being caught snapped against Southern Miss.

Dusty Davis (left), Drew Jaudon (center) and Philip Utley (right) each finished the year with four wins. the contest when the game was delayed. Despite the rain delay the Tigers took a 5-4 lead into the bottom of the ninth before Ole Miss’ Zack Cozart came up with a three-run, walk-off homerun with one out in the final frame to give the Rebels a 7-5 victory. A game later it was Memphis’ turn to create late-game heroics as designated hitter Joey Lieberman lined a one-out, walk-off grand slam over the leftfield wall to give the Tigers a 9-6 win over East Carolina in the series opening contest. The Tigers secured a No. 5 seed with a 20-hit performance in a convincing 14-6 win in game two. Adam Amar led the Memphis offense with six hits, including the game-winning single in the bottom of the ninth inning as the Tigers posted an 11-10 come-from-behind win over East Carolina in the series finale. The Tigers slammed a season-high six home runs in the contest, including back-to-back-to-back homers for the first time in 23 years. “We felt like the way we finished the season over the last seven games of the regular season gave us confidence headed into the Conference USA tournament,” said Schoenrock. Memphis entered the C-USA Tournament as the No. 4 seed—equaling the program’s best finish in C-USA play. The Tigers were paired with its most common C-USA Tournament opponent in Southern Miss. The Golden Eagles jumped out to a 4-0 lead early and Memphis never recovered. They were held scoreless for eight innings before falling to the loser’s bracket in a 6-2 loss. They quickly bounced back behind the arm of McGregor. The freshman fanned seven and finished off his third complete-game win of the year, while shortstop Michael Murray went 3for-4 performance with three runs scored to lead No. 4 Memphis to a 13-2 seven-inning win over No. 8 UAB. That win set up quarterfinal rematch with Southern Miss. The momentum turned Memphis’ way when Amar drove a bases-loaded, bases-clearing double to the right centerfield gap. The Tigers never looked back as they rode an 8-5 victory into a semifinal matchup with the nation’s top team in Rice. Memphis fell behind 5-1 before Michael Murray cut the deficit to one run with a three-run triple. That would be as close as the Tigers were able to get as the Owls advanced with a 7-4 final to end the Tigers’ season. Murray and Will Petersen were each named to the All-Tournament team. “Heading into the tournament we were confident knowing that we had played with the teams in the field,” Schoenrock said. “We had the confidence that we could play well and have a good showing. When the dust settled after the loss to Rice, our players knew how close we were to being an NCAA Regional calibur team.”
New England Patriots Draft Gostkowski in Fourth Round University of Memphis pitcher and kicker Stephen Gostkowski was selected in the fourth round of the NFL Draft by the New England Patriots. He was the first kicker selected in the draft, and was the 118th pick. Gostkowski, who is the first Tiger kicker ever to be drafted, joined fellow U of M teammate tailback DeAngelo Williams, who was drafted by Carolina in the first round, marking the first time since 2003 that two Tigers had been drafted. A native of Madison, Miss., Gostkowski originally came to Memphis on a baseball scholarship, and worked as a two-sport athlete at the U of M until he was drafted. He has been a starter and a relief pitcher on the mound, and led the Tigers in strikeouts with 35 at the time he was drafted. He finished the season with a 6.00 ERA and 35 strikeouts. The 2005 C-USA Special Teams Player of the Year, Gostkowski wrapped up his baseball career with 164 strikeouts and ranked in the program’s top-10 with 236.2 innings pitched.

TCU broke open a close contest with eight runs in the fifth, sixth and seventh innings to cruise to an 11-3 win over #18 Memphis in the opening round of the NCAA Midwest Regional.
NSU closed the gap with a pair of runs in the fourth, but Hoekstra responded with another RBI and then came around to score for 7-2 cushion.
TCU got on the board first with a pair of runs in the first, but Memphis was able to tie the game at 2-2 on Scott Curtis’s fourth-inning bases loaded single.

Another two-run homer in the seventh put the game out of reach. Dan Guehne was saddled with the loss after giving up nine runs on nine hit. TCU outhit Memphis 13-9 in the game.

AutoZone Park
Welcome to AutoZone Park... The 2007 season marks season number seven of a special cooperative between the University of Memphis baseball program and the Memphis Redbirds. After playing just one game at the downtown gem in 2005, Coach Daron Schoenrock and his Tigers will host a pair of marquee matchups at AutoZone Park this season–the annual showdown with rival Ole Miss, on Tuesday, Mar. 21, followed by an April 19 tilt with Mississippi State. The relationship began on August 20, 2001, when former Tiger head coach Dave Anderson and his Tigers gathered in front of AutoZone Park in downtown Memphis to reveal what U of M fans had anticipated for weeks. Tiger baseball would begin a relationship with the Memphis Redbirds that would allow the U of M to share the minor league stadium that many have deemed the best ballpark in all of minor league baseball. Accompanied by U of M Athletic Director R.C. Johnson, Redbirds Co-Founder Dean Jernigan and President of the Memphis Redbirds’ Baseball Foundation Rita Sparks, Anderson finally outlined his AutoZone plans at the late-August press conference. “This is a great day for our baseball program,” Anderson said. “AutoZone Park is one of the finest baseball parks in the country and now we can tell all of our recruits that they will be playing on the same field as the Mark McGwires and Albert Pujols. They’ll be dressing in a state-of-the-art clubhouse and playing in a big-league park.” “This is indeed an important day for our baseball program,” Johnson told reporters. “It is important for us because it demonstrates that our program is headed in the right direction and that the Memphis business community is behind us.”
Memphis played just one game at AutoZone Park in the 2001 season. The result was a 3-1 win over Ole Miss for its first win at the minor league ball park. After the Redbirds released their 2002 home schedule, Anderson announced that Memphis was scheduled to play 14 home games at the minor league facility. Memphis’ second season of play at the ‘Zone saw the Tigers host conference series’ against USF, UAB and then C-USA newcomer East Carolina. The Tigers also hosted non-conference opponents Middle Tennessee State, Southeast Missouri State, and SEC rival Ole Miss.
The downtown park remained unkind to Schoenrock and his crew in 2006 as the Tigers losing streak at AutoZone extended to five games after an 8-4 loss to Ole Miss, followed by a 5-3 setback to Mississippi State. 2007 looks to be a promising year for the unique cooperative as Memphis will play four contests in downtown Memphis. All four games will be feature matchups as the Schoenrock and the Tigers will host Northern Iowa, Indiana and Eastern Illinois in the program’s first annual AutoZone Classic, Mar. 2-4. Memphis will return to AutoZone Park, when it hosts Ole Miss in the annual battle on May 2.
The Tigers’ second season saw the club post a 3-10 record at AutoZone. A pair of conference wins over USF and a non-league triumph over Southeast Missouri St. highlighted the 13-game schedule. The Tigers produced one of their more dramatic wins in recent memory during the 2003 campaign at AutoZone Park. Designated hitter Ryan Martin hit a walk-off home run in the bottom of the tenth inning to defeat Mississippi State 8-7. Memphis went 2-4 in games at the minor league facility last season also winning its C-USA opener 3-2 against Louisville with a ninth-inning rally. The Tigers called the ‘ZONE’ home for five contests in 2004. Year four got off to a rough start, with Ole Miss handing the Tigers one of the worst losses in history. Memphis then bounced back to defeat Austin Peay, 5-2, in a game that was originally slated to be played at Nat Buring Stadium. A dramatic 6-5 win over league foe No. 18 East Carolina highlighted the Tigers’ five-game schedule at the downtown ball park as they finished the year with a 2-3 mark at AutoZone. Year five showcased just one contest at AutoZone. The Tigers battled No. 22 Ole Miss, but fell short in a 6-5 decision.

Nat Buring Stadium Nat Buring Stadium...
Home to the University of Memphis baseball team since March 14, 1992, the “Nat” provides a fantastic setting for top-notch NCAA Division I baseball. In 34 seasons at Nat Buring, Memphis has compiled a 641-268-1 record. The year 1972–the inaugural season at Nat Buring–also marked the first coaching season for former skipper Bobby Kilpatrick. On March 27, 1991, the Memphis Athletic Department ushered in a new era at Nat Buring Stadium–night baseball. The Tigers hosted Mississippi State University in the program’s first-ever night game played at “The Nat”. The Tigers played three times under the lights in 1991. Noted for its cozy dimensions, it has often proved to be a pitchers’ park when the wind blows in from left field. However, when the wind blows out to left, hitters would think differently. The dimensions down the lines are 318 and 317 feet in left and right fields, respectively, 360 in the alleys and 379 to center field. Also, the Tiger baseball team is fortunate to have access to the Billy J. Murphy sports complex, which neighbors the stadium on the University’s Park Avenue Campus. The Murphy Complex offers top-notch training facilities, including the baseball team’s clubhouse and indoor training facility. Several renovations have taken place since the stadium opened in 1972. Besides the 1991 addition of lights to the stadium, a new backstop was installed at the beginning of the 1994 season to allow better visibility for the fans. Chairback seats were also installed in the grandstand area for better comfort and enjoyment of Tiger baseball games.
During the summer of 1994, the playing surface of the infield was overhauled, giving Nat Buring Stadium one of the best natural grass playing surfaces in the South. In the winter of 1999, new dugouts were constructed. In the spring of 2004, the entire playing field was leveled out and resurfaced for better playing conditions. A new wall was added to the list of stadium improvements in the winter of 2005. Prior to the 2006 campaign, field turf was installed around the batter’s circle to help maintain the field’s aesthitic in the high-traffic area. Future renovations have been slated for the Tiger’s home facility. Improvements include a new scoreboard, a granstand renovation--complete with expanded pressbox, grandstand seating, concession and restroom facilities. The final transformations include a new training facility, with a players’ lounge, hitting cage, coaches offices and restrooms Following the 1971 season, the Tigers moved to Nat Buring from Tobey Park, located at the corner of Hollywood and Central. The team also played games at Blues Stadium, which in now known as the former Tim McCarver Stadium. The first game played at Nat Buring Stadium was on March 14, 1972 when the Tigers defeated Mississippi State 11-2 in game one of a doubleheader. Memphis went on to sweep the Bulldogs with a 4-2 victory in the evening game. Since that time, Nat Buring Stadium has hosted two Missouri Valley Conference Tournaments (1972, 1973), two Metro Conference Tournaments (1976, 1977) and the Great Midwest Conference Tournament in 1993. Nat Buring Stadium is named after the owner of Buring Food Packing. Mr. Buring was known for his generosity to the University of Memphis athletic program.

C-USA IN THE COMMUNITY The conference’s footprint is concentrated with 12 members in nine states and a combined area population of nearly 17 million. More than 1.1 million living alumni represent C-USA schools across the nation. With a renewed commitment to community involvement, the conference has begun development of several initiatives to maintain strong ties in
C-USA cities, as well as with fans and alumni across the country. C-USA schools also place a priority on giving back to their communities through volunteer service with local and national organizations. GOVERNANCE Along with the ACC, Big East, Big Ten, Big 12, Pac-10 and SEC, Conference USA is one of the seven conferences having significant representation in the NCAA governance structure. The Presidents of the member institutions serve as the league’s Board of Directors. Dr. Carol Garrison of UAB began her first year as chair of the Board of Directors in 2005-06 and will serve in that capacity again in 2006-07. A PROUD HISTORY; A PROMISING FUTURE Conference USA was formed in 1995 and quickly emerged as one of the nation’s top conferences. The conference unveiled its name, logo and commissioner on April 24, 1995 in Chicago. The league’s charter members included Charlotte, Cincinnati, DePaul, Houston, Louisville, Marquette, Memphis, Saint Louis, Southern Miss, Tulane, UAB and USF. Eleven of the institutions began athletic participation in 1995, while Houston joined competition in the fall of 1996.

R.C. Johnson
Athletic Director (Iowa, 1965)
R.C.
Johnson, who has worked for 32 years in athletic administration and previously served as athletic director at Temple University, was named the Director of Athletics at the University of Memphis on December 29, 1995. Johnson came aboard in February of 1996 and immediately set forth in putting together one of the most renowned athletic staffs in school history. Since his arrival, Johnson has hired such high-profile coaches as former Clemson head football coach Tommy West, former New Jersey Nets and UMass head basketball coach John Calipari, baseball coach Daron Schoenrock and Lady Tiger basketball coach Blair Savage, who is considered one of the up-and-coming young coaches in the country. With his staff completed, Johnson set his sights on revamping University of Memphis athletic facilities. Johnson initiated a capital campaign to add a new 8,000-square-foot football and basketball office complex to the current Athletic Office Building, a new basketball practice facility and a complete renovation of the Murphy Athletic Complex. The $8 million campaign was the largest fund-raising effort in the history of Memphis athletics and has brought the Tiger athletic facilities on-line with the Conference USA sister institutions. During his tenure, Johnson has created the Athletic Director’s Honor Roll, the Tiger Scholarship Fund Board of Directors and the Athletic Director’s Ambassadors Club. Johnson has conducted several meetings with the Memphis Park Commission to add a greater presence for the Tigers in Liberty Bowl Memorial Stadium. Numerous signs appear in the Liberty Bowl indicating that the stadium is the “Home of the Tigers.” He was also instrumental in implementing the addition of a new turf field to the stadium for 2005. At Temple, Johnson was responsible for directing a program with more than 500 student-
athletes in 20 men’s and women’s intercollegiate sports, including nationally-visible programs in men’s basketball and football. He was named Temple’s director of athletics on May 9, 1994, after a national search. Johnson was hired at Temple after nearly six years as director of athletics at Miami (Ohio) University. During his tenure at Miami University, Johnson was responsible for numerous programs that enhanced the stature and image of the Ohio institution. A strong believer in a quality education for student-athletes, Johnson emphasized academic integrity and excellence during his time at Miami University. At the time he departed for Temple, Miami University had 15 student-athletes with a perfect 4.0 GPA, 62 student-athletes with a 3.50 or better GPA and 191 student-athletes with a 3.00 or better GPA. Before becoming the athletic director at Miami University, Johnson was the athletic director at Eastern Illinois from 1980-88. He was the associate athletic director at Northern Iowa from 1974-80. A former football coach himself, Johnson served as an assistant at Mankato State University from 1968-74. He coached at Youngstown State University during the 1967 and 1968 seasons. Prior to joining the staff at Youngstown State, Johnson served as an assistant coach at Northern Iowa (1965-67) and the University of Iowa (1963-65). An Ottawa, Ill., native, Johnson has his bachelor’s degree in sociology from the University of Iowa and a master’s in physical education from the University of Northern Iowa. He is a member of the National Association of College Directors of Athletics and serves on the NCAA Management Council. Johnson is the Chair of the C-USA Athletic Directors while also serving on the C-USA Bowl Committee and Finance Committee. His involvement in the Memphis community includes serving on the Memphis and Shelby County Sports Authority. He also is a member of the University of Memphis President’s Council. Johnson and his wife, Melba, have three children and five grandchildren.

uture renovations have been slated for the Tiger’s home facility. Improvements include a new scoreboard, a grandstand renovation-complete with expanded pressbox, grandstand seating, concession and restroom facilities. The final transformations include a new training facility with a player’s lounge, hitting cage, coaches offices and restrooms. Nat Buring Stadium is named after the owner of Buring Food packing. Mr. Buring was known for his generosity to the University of Memphis athletic program. The Tigers moved to Nat Buring from Tobey Park, located at the corner of Hollywood and Central. The team also played games at Blues Stadium, which later became Tim McCarver Stadium.

T
he Tigers’ Park Avenue Campus Strength and Conditioning facility is located next to the remodeled indoor turf room in the Billy J. Murphy Athletic Complex. Opened in January 1993, the facility serves each of the University’s intercollegiate sports programs. Head Strength and Conditioning Coach Mike Stark oversees all workouts at South Campus. He is aided by graduate assistants Jason Hartman and Chad Smith and volunteer assistant Ken Roach. The Tiger football, men’s soccer, baseball and track teams work out with Stark and his staff. A former U of M football player, Stark has worked with over 40 NFL players, including the Carolina Panthers’ DeAngelo Williams, the New England Patriot’s Stephen Gostkowski, the Detroit Lions’ Marcus Bell and Idrees Bashir, the Houston Texans’ Michael Stone and the St. Louis Rams’ AllPro receiver Isaac Bruce. In addition to the Park Avenue Campus weight room, there is a weight facility in the Elma Roane Fieldhouse that was refurbished in the spring of 2005. That weight room benefits women’s basketball, volleyball, men’s tennis, women’s tennis, cross country, women’s golf, softball and women’s soccer. Assistant Strength Coach Lee Yerty is responsible for all workouts in the Fieldhouse. He is assisted by graduate assistant Jake Fitts. The men’s basketball team utilizes a weight room that is located in its practice facility, the Larry O. Finch Center. Assistant Strength Coach Richard Hogans and graduate assistant Mike Malone are charged with the workouts of Tiger basketball, as well as the men’s tennis and men’s golf teams. With three state-of-the-art facilities located around campus, the U of M Strength and Conditioning staff is well-equipped to handle the training needs of Tiger Athletes.
The Memphis baseball team competed in the C-USA Challenge, a tough six-event relay race, at the Murphy Athletic Complex in December.
Weight Room Highlights The 10,500-square-foot varsity weight room is equipped with rugged, versatile hardware so that groups of up to 75 student-athletes can train concurrently with optimal effectiveness and efficiency. Workouts are designed and supervised by one or more of the Strength and Conditioning staff ’s certified specialists, and each student-athlete’s individual progress is projected via a computerized database. The Tiger Power philosophy couples functional, multi-joint movements with fundamental principles: exercise techniques are simplified and performed on an alternating heavy/explosive basis in order to maximize training effects while minimizing teaching and training time (as well as fatigue). Performance based fitness and work quality are the bottom-line objective. The weight room’s equipment upgrade plan reflects this philosophy and includes: 10 self-contained Olympic platforms and power racks; a plyometric/medicine ball area; a complete dumbbell line; and a variety of hip sleds, glute/ham stations, cable stations and other supplemental pieces allowing student-athletes to perform an unlimited variety of exercises and movements. The modern and spacious facility is also equipped with dressing/rest rooms; is naturally illuminated; and is maintained at a constant 70-74 degrees. In planning the long-range Tiger Power programs, student-athletes are assigned to respective developmental levels based on individual ability and training history. For example, newcomers begin with an extensive volume of “foundational” or generalized movements and progress toward more intensive and specialized exercises with each successive phase.
A grueling relay race, the C-USA Challenge consisted of a 680-yard run, followed by the tower climb, the tire flip, sled pull, farmer’s walk and bear crawl.
The actual workout menu may remain fairly constant over a student-athletes four- or five-year sport career; however, broad variations in workload combine the program’s simplicity with a measure of sophistication.
T
he University of Memphis athletic training staff is second-to-none when it comes to ensuring that U of M student-athletes receive quality care in the areas of athletic injury, rehabilitation and preventative care. With the renovation of the Murphy Athletic Complex training facility along with the Larry O. Finch Center training room, the Memphis studentathlete can be assured of receiving the best medical attention and rehabilitation available. The Finch Center training facility is located just off the basketball practice courts and is used primarily for the men’s basketball program. The training room, which is operated by Assistant Athletic Trainer Chris Simmons, is fully equipped to help prevent and also treat injuries throughout the year. If needed, the Tiger basketball players also have the Murphy Athletic Complex training room available for them. That training room was redesigned and reconstructed as part of the $6 million renovation of Park Avenue Campus. The training facility, which more than doubles the size of the old training room, contains an in-ground aquatic rehabilitation pool which allows trainers to work on rehabilitating injuries without having the studentathlete support his/her own body weight. The new training room also contains new doctor examination rooms, storage areas and the latest in rehabilitation equipment. The athletic training staff uses a comprehensive approach to the injury care and wellness of student-athletes by utilizing state-ofthe-art diagnostic and treatment equipment with the latest methods in the care and prevention of injuries. Amos Mansfield enters his second year as head athletic training. Mansfield spent four years at Southern Miss as an assistant train-

rounded by many qualified and generous team doctors who are available to the many student-athletes at the University of Memphis. Dr. Barry Phillips of The Campbell Clinic is directly responsible for the orthopedic needs of the Tiger basketball team. Dr. Thomas Meriwether and Dr. Arthur Franklin serve as the team physicians. Dr. Allen Sills serves as the team’s neurosurgeon. Tiger student-athletes are fortunate to have the two largest privatelyowned hospital systems in the world located in Memphis. Baptist Hospital and Methodist Hospital offer the finest in healthcare to area residents and handle the care of Memphis studentathletes. The athletic training staff is one support group that the athletic teams cannot do without. They are responsible for staffing all practices and games as well as handling the day-to-day rehabilitation of injured or post-surgery studentathletes. The goal of the sports medicine department is not only to care for the injuries, but also to assist the student-athletes in preventing injuries from occurring.
T
he University of Memphis’ Center for Athletic Academic Services (CAAS) is dedicated to the academic and personal development of all Tiger student-athletes. Its mission is to provide support services to ensure that U of M student-athletes succeed in the classroom and obtain undergraduate degrees. The services include orientation programs, tutoring, mentoring, academic counseling, study hall and academic advising. In March 2002, vast improvements were beginning to take place in the CAAS. At that time, Dr. Joe Luckey took over the staff after spending the previous 10 years at Austin Peay State. Dr. Luckey, who was nationally recognized for his outstanding leadership in 1999, came to Memphis with a vision. In just one short year, Dr. Luckey recruited six new staff members, instituted new academic programs, designed and inspired two special sections of ACAD 1100 for studentathletes and transitioned the office from the basement Former members of the Memphis baseball team, Drew of the Elma Roane Fieldhouse to the newly-renovated Jaudon (left) and John Peterson, received their diploma in December 2006.

The Wilder Tower also houses admissions, the bursar, finanwith those student-athletes and coaching staffs. Dr. Luckey has continued to challenge the Center’s staff, cial aid, the registrar, student development and academic the coaching staffs advising. A total of 8,000 square feet, encompassing the entire sixth and seventh floors of the tower, have been designated for the CAAS. The area supports 31 student computer stations, 17 offices and numerous study tables. Inspired by Dr. Luckey, two special sections of ACAD 1100, Introduction to the University, were offered to student-athletes only. The class was so well received that a third section was offered in 2003 so that all freshman student-athletes can be included in the course. Students who participated in the class earned an average of 15.2 credit hours and an average GPA of 3.25. Three academic awards are sponsored by the CAAS as a means of honoring the top student-athletes. The Tiger 3.0 Club recognizes student-athletes who earned grade-point averages of 3.0 during the fall/spring semesters, while the Tiger Academic Thirty is dedicated to the 30 student-athletes with the best grade-point average on each team and then the next best group of student-athletes, totaling 30. The final honor, the TEAM GPA Award, is presented to the male and female team with the best grade point average for the semester.

WHY TIGERS?
When the University of Memphis first fielded a football team in the fall of 1912, no one had selected a nickname for the squad. Early references to the football team tabbed them only as the Blue and Gray Warriors of West Tennessee Normal School. After the final game of the 1914 season, there was a student parade. During this event, several Normal students shouted, “We fight like Tigers.” The nickname was born. More and more the nickname “Tigers” was used, particularly in campus publications. But it did not catch on with the newspapers downtown. They continued to use “Normals” or the “Blue and Gray” when referring to the University. Under Coach Lester Barnard in 1922, Normal’s football team gave a ring of truth to that old student yell about Tigers. The team adopted a motto – “Every Man a Tiger” – and went on to score 174 points while allowing its opponents just 29 points. In the late 1920s, student publications and downtown newspapers began referring to the football team as the “Teachers” or “Tutors.” The Tiger nickname would return, but not until 1939 was it finally adopted as the official nickname for the University of Memphis.
A BENGAL FOR A MASCOT
For over 30 years, the sideline mascot for The University of Memphis has been the Bengal Tiger. TOM II, the current Tiger mascot, attends all Tiger football home games, and he can also be found at many other University events throughout the year as a powerful and majestic symbol of Tigers Athletics. TOM II travels in style in a custom-designed, climate-controlled trailer, always with police escort. The first Tiger, TOM, was procured by the Highland Hundred Football Boosters in 1972 and served the U of M faithfully for nearly 20 years until passing away in February of 1992. TOM came to the university on November 9, 1972, when the tiger cub was placed in a dog kennel in Michigan City, Ind., and put on a Memphis-bound flight via Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport. He arrived in Memphis at 3:00 a.m., and C. Cleveland Drennon, President of the Highland Hundred, approved a check for $1,500 to purchase the animal. That morning, TOM was taken to Athletic Director Billy Murphy’s office for a press conference. The Highland Hundred officially presented TOM to the University in a ceremony at Liberty Bowl Memorial Stadium on November 11, 1972, during a football game against the University of Cincinnati. TOM had initially been named ‘Shane’ at the suggestion of the breeder’s daughter. Once in Memphis, though, a contest was held to name the mascot. More than 2,500 entries were submitted to a committee chaired by Judge Harry Pierotti, including colorful monikers like Spook, Sampson, Goliath, Bengo, Sultan, Sahib, Big Cat, Ptah, Touchdown, Sonny Shiloh, and even Bengie Wougie Bengal Boy from Tennessee. The list was ultimately reduced to two choices, Shane and TOM, which stands for Tigers Of Memphis. TOM won.
During his first few months in Memphis, TOM was housed by Highland Hundred member Bill Proctor in his garage, which the Club had redecorated, and was closely guarded by Proctor’s hound dog. As TOM grew older, the decision was made by the Highland Hundred to keep the Tiger Tradition alive by securing a new Tiger to be raised as TOM II. In the fall of 1991, Highland Hundred President Ray Daniels and President-Elect Bobby Wharton received TOM II as a gift from Tom and Carolyn Atchison of Florence, Alabama. In 2005, TOM II moved to a new habitat in a rural area just south of Memphis on land offered by long-time Tiger fans Jeff and Mary Kuntz. The new facility was designed as a virtual copy of the original facility in Collierville, but includes many upgrades that improve TOM’s comfort and safety. As one of only two Universities in America with a live Tiger mascot, the University of Memphis is unique in its Tiger Tradition.
SCHOOL COLORS
The University of Memphis’ official school colors of Blue and Gray were selected in the early 1900s. The colors were chosen in an effort to show unity in a nation that was still recovering from the effects of the Civil War. The student body thought that by picking the colors of the North and the South, the school would show a togetherness among all students.
THE LOGO
The University of Memphis’ official logo has been redesigned by Craig Thompson, from Disciple Design in Memphis, Tenn. The original logo was an MSU with a leaping tiger coming out from behind the letters. The new logo is an “M” with a leaping Tiger coming up over the center of the “M.”

Athletic Complex Highlights
Nat Buring Stadium
The University of Memphis Murphy Athletic Complex is located approximately one mile south of the institution’s main campus and serves as the home and training facility for many of the Tiger athletic teams. Facilities Director Murray Armstrong is responsible for overseeing the facility. Opened in 1971, the Murphy Complex, the first of its kind in the Southeast, includes a training room with examination rooms for team doctors, rehabilitation and taping areas and an in-ground aquatic pool for rehabilitating injuries. Additional locker rooms have been added for the football staff, women’s soccer team and visiting teams competing at the track and field and baseball facilities. A media interview room, video room and storage rooms are also a part of the renovation project. The Murphy Complex underwent some major changes and renovations in 2003. The renovations were part of a $6 million facelift given to the Murphy Complex, giving Tiger studentathletes a state-of-the-art training facility.
Four 100-yard grass practice fields highlight the back side of the Murphy Complex.
The renovation of the Billy J. Murphy Training Complex was completed in the spring of 2003.

onsidered the “Home of the Blues” and the “Birthplace of Rock ‘n Roll,” the city of Memphis’ musical roots run deep. However, music is just a chapter in the history as well as the future of the city located in the heart of Mid-America. Memphis, named after the capital of ancient Egypt, boasts all the amenities you would expect in a city with over 1 million residents, while retaining the charm and down-to-earth feel of a small town. Downtown Memphis is in the midst of a building boom valued at $2.3 billion which is transforming the heart of the city. One of the most visible projects has been the construction of AutoZone Park, the downtown ballpark which is the home of the Memphis Redbirds, the St. Louis Cardinals’ Triple-A club. The 14,320-seat stadium includes 1,500 club seats, 48 luxury suites and is located at the corner of Third Street and Union Avenue across from the world-famous Peabody Hotel. The city’s newest downtown project is FedExForum, an entertainment arena that houses both the Memphis Grizzlies of the National Basketball Association and the University of Memphis men’s basketball team. The $250 million state-of-the-art arena features a 35,000-square-foot outdoor plaza where fans of all ages can gather before an event.

In 1991, Graceland was placed on the National Register of Historical Places. Over 600,000 visitors tour Graceland each year. Also located downtown is the beautiful Orpheum Theater which serves as a venue for performances by Ballet Memphis, the Memphis Symphony Orchestra and traveling Broadway shows, as well as the Orpheum Classic Movies series and other concerts. The city’s location makes Memphis a major distribution hub with two interstate highways intersecting the city. Memphis is also home of FedEx, the nation’s largest package carrier which makes Memphis International Airport the world’s busiest cargo airport. Over 500 commercial passenger flights originate from Memphis International each day.
Just off of Beale Street in downtown Memphis, the FedExForum is home to both the University of Memphis men’s basketball team and the NBA’s Memphis Grizzlies.
