ADMINISTRATION

MVC Career Coaching Victories

Starting Pitching Missouri State will rely on the one-two right-handed punch of junior Pierce Johnson and redshirt sophomore Nick Petree to anchor the weekend rotation. The duo combined for 15 victories a year ago as first-time regular starters, with Petree bringing home Collegiate Baseball and NCBWA Freshman All-America and Valley Freshman Pitcher of the Year honors. The Clinton, Mo., product went 9-2 with a 2.81 ERA, setting MSU rookie records for wins and innings pitched (96.0). “Nick is going to keep you in every game,” Guttin states. “Even in a couple of losses last year he kept the opposition to two or three earned runs. The biggest thing is you know what you’re getting every time out. He does all the little things—he’s a huge strike-thrower, he holds runners well, he fields his position well and he knows how to get batters out.”

Veteran’s Day The Bears’ strength is in numbers, both in quality and quantity, according to Guttin. With seven regular position starters and six experienced seniors returning, the 2012 Bears will have a deep and talented well to turn to for leadership. “I think our overall experience is going to be our biggest strength,” Guttin says. “I wouldn’t say we have one specific area that’s particularly stronger than another, just that we have a number of players who have been through it all before and know what it’s going to take to be successful.” The six MSU seniors combined to drive in nearly

60 percent of the runs tallied by the Bears last spring, while hitting a collective .298. While the MSU roster does not include a senior pitcher, Guttin’s charges should benefit from a deep pitching staff that improved dramatically over the course of the 2011 season. The Bears posted a 3.22 ERA in conference play after yielding an average of 4.66 earned runs per nine innings over their first 27 contests. “A lot of these guys went out and had productive summers and there has been good carryover from the fall to the preseason,” Guttin continues. “They’re anxious, with the weather as good as it has been, to move forward and get the ball rolling.”

ing we would have a big group coming back. But now it’s time to go to work.”

ith a memorable bounceback from a disappointing 2010 campaign, the Missouri State Bears found themselves in familiar territory in 2011—the thick of the Missouri Valley Conference baseball race. But a frustrating week-and-a-half in Omaha at the end of the season saw the Bears finish the campaign with a 33-23 overall record, narrowly missing out on their first NCAA Tournament trip since 2003. With that near-miss still fresh in their minds, the Bears enter 2012 poised for a breakthrough year. The MVC coaches agreed, making MSU the preseason choice to capture the regular-season title for the fourth time in the last 12 seasons. Additionally, MSU will have the home field advantage in its quest for the Valley championship and the league’s automatic NCAA Tournament berth when the league’s postseason tournament returns to Hammons Field, May 22-26. The 2012 season promises to be a milestone year for the Bears, who mark their 30th year as a Division I program. It will also be the 30th campaign for head coach Keith Guttin, who enters the season just eight wins shy of the 1,000 career win mark. With all the buzz surrounding his club, Guttin shares the optimism of his fellow coaches, but is still mindful of the fact that the road ahead will not be an easy one. “We have a number of talented, experienced players back and I think we’re very optimistic coming into the year,” the Bears’ mentor says. “We’ve been pointing toward this season for a while, know-

Relief Corps Replacing a closer who saved more games in

2011 than all but two previous Bears had saved in their entire careers would normally be cause for concern. But Guttin won’t have to look too hard to fill the stopper role left vacant by the departure of Dan Kickham, who tied a school record with 13 saves in his only season in Maroon and White. After making 14 starts for MSU as a sophomore, Grant Gordon will assume the role he held during his freshman season of 2010, during which he saved seven games and punched-out 74 batters in just 56.0 innings pitched. “Gordon is the closer,” Guttin declares. “He did it as a freshman and was outstanding and has been working out of the bullpen again since the summer. That’s where he’s most comfortable and he should do a great job for us in that role once again.” Help should come from returners Landon Jarrett and Jonathan McCann, who will be looking to expand their roles after seeing limited mound time as newcomers last spring. Junior transfers Danny McMurtrey and Erik Shannahan, as well as freshman Chris Bonk, should also push for playing time, giving Guttin and pitching coach Paul Evans added options from the right side. Behind the Plate Perhaps the Bears deepest position on the field will be behind the plate, as Guttin welcomes back junior All-MVC second-teamer Luke Voit and senior Brett Marshall. Voit, who belted 11 home runs and drove in 64 runs over his first two seasons at MSU, came through when it mattered most for the Bears in 2011. The Wildwood, Mo., native produced eight game-winning RBIs to rank ninth in school history. “Voit went out and had a strong summer in the

After a slow start to 2011, Johnson did much of his damage out of the Bears bullpen, earning two saves while giving up just six earned runs over his last 34.0 innings pitched spanning nine appearances, good for a 1.58 ERA. Named the top MVC pro prospect in the 2012-13 draft classes by Baseball America during the preseason, Johnson will be called upon to shoulder an even larger load as a junior after finishing with a 6-5 mark and 4.76 ERA over 18 appearances last spring. “The last half of last year, Pierce was outstanding for us, both starting and relieving,” Guttin says. “We’ll need him to bring that same level of performance all year.” As far as the rest of the Bears’ starting rotation goes, Guttin expects junior Clay Murphy and sophomore Jake Powers to get their shots, while a trio of newcomers could also vie for starts after posting strong fall campaigns. Murphy made five starts as a sophomore, posting a 3-3 mark that included a 10-strikeout performance in eight shutout innings against No. 22 Oklahoma State. Powers worked primarily out of the bullpen in his first year as a Bear, going 1-0 with 28 strikeouts in 27.2 innings of work. Leading the pack of new faces on the Bears’ pitching staff is junior transfer Cody Schumacher, a right-hander who won 17 games and fanned a school-record 136 batters over his two-year career at Johnson County Community College. Freshman righty Zach Merciez was impressive during the fall season, while classmate Tyler Burgess could also work his way into a prominent role as one of just two left-handers on the MSU roster.

Cape Cod League,” Guttin adds. “He had a good fall and has carried that over to the preseason. He’s going to be a good run-producer for us.” With Voit providing the offense, Marshall has excelled behind the plate for the Bears, throwing out 38 percent of would-be base-stealers for his career. Additionally, Guttin expects freshman Darin Francis to benefit from working with the two MSU upperclassmen. Around the Horn Yet another area of strength for the Bears in 2012 should be a veteran-laden infield. Despite the loss of three-year starter Travis McComack (redshirt), Guttin has high expectations for his three returning senior starters. Leading the way is second baseman Kevin Medrano, who returns to complete his Missouri State career despite his selection by the Cardinals in the 14th round of the MLB Draft in June. The Bears most-consistent hitter since his freshman year, Medrano has the chance to leave his mark on a number of MSU career offensive charts. He could also become the first four-time first-team All-MVC honoree in Valley history this spring. “One thing Kevin does is get his hits,” Guttin offers. “He’s a quiet leader, he’s very consistent defensively, and he knows how to handle the bat at the top of the order. Having him back is a bonus we didn’t necessarily expect to have.” The Bears also figure to be solid at the hot corner, as Brent Seifert is back after pacing the club in home runs (9), RBIs (43) and total bases (112) as a junior. Seifert saw time at third, second and first base in 2011, earning a spot on the alltournament team at the MVC Championship. “Seifert brings it every day,” Guttin says. “He’s

Perennial MVC power Wichita State totaled 47 points to place third in the poll, while Indiana State (37 points) came in fourth and Illinois State finished close behind in fifth with 34 points. Southern Illinois (31 points) earned the sixth spot, followed by Bradley (15 points) and Evansville (11 points) in seventh and eighth place, respectively. “I think the league as a whole will be better,” says the Bears’ nine-time conference coach of the year honoree. “Everybody seems to be returning a lot of guys, and because of that, this conference will be stronger as a whole than it was a year ago.”

Review

Outfield Patrol Perhaps the biggest job facing Guttin and the Bears during the preseason has been identifying who will replace all-around threat Aaron Conway in center field. One of MSU’s top performers both at the plate and in the field in 2011, Conway’s graduation leaves room for a pair of talented sophomores in Patrick Drake and Trey Massenberg to step into larger roles after seeing limited time as freshmen. The picture is clearer with the corner outfield positions, especially in right, where senior Spiker Helms returns after a strong 2011 campaign. Helms, who also saw playing time on the Bears’ infield as a junior, drew 42 walks to tie for third on MSU’s single-season list, matching Guttin’s 1976 total. The Washington, Mo., native finished third on the club in runs scored and steals as well. “Helms has shown marked improvement in the

year he’s been here,” Guttin says. “He gets on base, plays the game well, he’s a good baserunner and he has very strong arm.” The Bears will count on junior Keenen Maddox and senior Derek Mattea in left after the tandem combined to make 49 of 56 starts at the position last season. Additionally, Guttin anticipates a DH-by-committee involving a number of potential members. “Everyone is a candidate,” he concludes. About the Opposition The 2012 Missouri State schedule will feature a total of 56 games, including 25 home dates and match-ups against five different 2011 NCAA qualifiers. Additionally, the Bears will host the Valley Tournament, which returns to Hammons Field for the first time since 2007. Highlighting the Bears’ 49th season of varsity baseball will be non-conference home-and-home sets with Big 12 foes Oklahoma State, Kansas and Missouri, as well as series with NCAA qualifiers Oral Roberts and Dallas Baptist. In all, Missouri State will play 25 games against 10 different opponents that rated among the top 100 RPI finishers a year ago, including 13 contests against 2011 NCAA teams. “I really like our non-conference schedule,” Guttin says. “The highlight of the year has to be the return of the conference tournament to Hammons Field, and with nine games against Big 12 opponents, we should be challenged early and often.”

not a big talker, but he is very consistent. He plays the game the right way and he handles the bat well in the middle of the order.” Another All-MVC performer, Brock Chaffin, is also back for MSU to hold down the first base job. Chaffin led the Bears with a .344 average while clubbing six long balls and driving home 37 runs as a junior last spring. Guttin also praises the Stoutland, Mo., product’s leadership skills, as evidenced by his selection as a team captain in just his second year in the program. While Chaffin will see most of the time at first, Guttin will also have the luxury of depth provided by a pair of newcomers who could see time at both first base and as MSU’s designated hitter. Local products Conner Wilson and Koby Peebles bring the ability to play first or one of the corner outfield spots. Wilson comes to MSU after a standout prep career that included three all-state selections at Strafford High. A junior transfer, Peebles is a switchhitter with power who helped Crowder College to a Junior College World Series appearance as a freshman in 2010. Additionally, sophomore MVC Scholar-Athlete candidate Conor Smith will push for an expanded role after seeing limited action as a pinch-hitter and first baseman as a freshman. The freshman trio of Dylan Becker, Eric Cheray and Joey Hawkins should help fill the void at shortstop, provide infield depth and fill the DH spot at times, Guttin claims. Becker is a threat at the plate and a versatile defensive player who could see time on the infield or in the outfield. A four-year starter at shortstop for Shawnee Mission East High, Becker batted .612 as a senior and hit .375 in the Ban Johnson League last summer. Cheray is another utility player who Guttin forsees playing a number of different positions during his MSU career. The Topeka, Kan., product helped his Seaman High squad to three straight Kansas Class 5A state titles, demonstrating the range to play both shortstop and catcher. A Whitby, Ontario, native, Hawkins was a 42nd round selection of the Royals in the 2011 MLB Draft and a Team Canada pick prior to joining the MSU program.

MISSOURI STATE

on an at-large basis. A total of 292 schools sponsored Division I baseball in the NCAA in 2011. Following the conclusion of conference tournament play the last weekend in May, the NCAA Division I Baseball Committee will select and announce its 64-team field for the tourney. The teams will go into 16 double-elimination regionals of four teams each, with the regionals to be held June 1-4 either at campus or neutral sites. The NCAA will announce the 64-team field May 28. The 16 regional winners will advance to best-of-three Super Regionals at eight campus sites the weekend of June 8-11, with those sites to be announced June 5. The Super Regional winners will advance to the 66th College World Series, held at TD Ameritrade Park in Omaha, June 15-26. Missouri Valley Conference member Creighton University is the College World Series host. The eight teams in the CWS are divided into two double-elimination pools of four schools each. Pool winners meet in the new best-of-three championship June 24-26. All CWS games

are nationally televised on ESPN. Once the field of 64 teams is determined, the committee will select 16 teams each to receive regional seeds one, two, three and four. From the 16 No. 1 seeds, the committee will select the top eight national seeds and rank them, one through eight. The eight national seeds will be placed in separate regionals so they cannot meet before the first round of the College World Series, and the eight remaining No. 1 regional seeds will be placed geographically in the 64-team bracket for potential Super Regional meetings with the eight national seeds. Teams from the same conference will not go into the same regional and teams from the same conference who are number one regional seeds cannot meet in the Super Regionals. The 64-team field will not be reseeded once the initial bracket is announced May 28. Thirteen schools have represented the MVC in the NCAA Division I championship, including all eight current MVC baseball schools.

The 66th annual NCAA Division I Baseball Championship will conclude with the NCAA College World Series. The event is held in Omaha, Neb., for the 62nd time in its history, and makes the move to downtown this season at the brand new TD Ameritrade Park. For the 13th year, the tournament will continue with a highly-successful new format which was implemented in 1999. Another significant change to the format in 2003 occurred in the World Series’ final round. The championship round is now a best-of-three showdown involving the winners of each bracket in the CWS field. The 64-team tournament field will again include 30 conferences whose champions (determined either by a league tournament or regular season play) automatically qualify for NCAA play, with the other 34 slots to be filled

2012 Missouri State Baseball Guide

Missouri State University Student-Athlete Code of Conduct Introduction Student-athletes at Missouri State University (“University”) are representatives of their teams, the Department of Athletics and the University. It is a privilege, not a right, to be a member of an intercollegiate athletics program. It has many benefits, but student-athletes receive a higher level of interest from the public and the media. That attention means student-athletes have a responsibility to be positive and effective members of their program, the University and the Department of Athletics. As a member of an athletics program, student-athletes are expected to demonstrate the pillars of good character by displaying integrity, honesty, respect for others and good sportsmanship in all academic, athletic and social activities. Additionally, student-athletes are to abide by all University policies, Athletic Department, National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA), and conference rules and regulations, as well as city, county, state and federal laws and standards of behavior. The Student-Athlete Code of Conduct is an Athletic Department policy that applies to all studentathletes including those that are not actively competing in their sport. The standards and expectations set forth apply at all times: in season, out of season, on or off campus, and on and off the playing field. Sanctions will be applied for violation of this Code. Student-athletes have an obligation to report Code of Conduct violations to their Head Coaches or the Faculty Athletics Representative as soon as possible. Student-athletes who do not conform to this Code may be subject to greater consequences for misconduct that is not reported or that involves multiple or repeat violations. The Head Coach or Faculty Athletics Representative who learns of a Code of Conduct violation shall report same to the Athletic Director within 24 hours. A written copy of the Student-Athlete Code of Conduct will be provided to student-athletes annually. It will also be included in the Student-Athlete Handbook and will be available online at the missouristatebears.com website.

Review

eginning his 30th year of guiding the Missouri State baseball program, head coach Keith Guttin continues to build the Bears into one of the top programs, not just in the Missouri Valley Conference or the Midwest, but in all of NCAA Division I baseball. With just eight more wins, Guttin will join an elite group of college coaches in the 1,000 career victory club. Under Guttin, the Bears are 992-630 (an average of 34 wins and 22 losses per season) and have won 61 percent of their games. Guttin has had eight 40-win seasons. The Bears will be poised for a breakout season in 2012 with seven regular starters and a deep pitching corps returning from last year’s 33-23 campaign that saw MSU fall just short of its first NCAA Tournament berth in eight years. Missouri State returned to the top of The Valley in 2009, finishing the league schedule with a 17-5 record after sweeping Creighton and Indiana State in the final two weeks of the season. Both CU and ISU entered its series with MSU atop the MVC standings. MSU’s stellar 2009 season followed a 2008 campaign when the team went 40-17 overall, earning Guttin his 10th conference coach of the year honor. In 2007, Ross Detwiler was selected sixth overall in the MLB Draft, the highest pick in school history, and the Bears came within a win of the NCAA Tournament in 2006 before falling in the MVC Tournament finals. In 2003, MSU advanced to its first-ever NCAA Division I College World Series to cap a season in which the Bears won the MVC regular season title for the second time in three seasons. The Bears’ NCAA Tournament trip was the second straight NCAA trip and the sixth appearance in the past nine years. That year, Guttin garnered the American Baseball Coaches Association Midwest Region Coach of the Year award and his second MVC Coach of the Year honor in three seasons. It was his third conference honor since the Bears joined the Valley and it was Guttin’s ninth conference Coach of the Year recognition in 23 years as a head coach. In 2002, the Bears posted their first 40-win season since 1991 and won the second-most games in school history and the most since winning a school record 47 games in 1987. Missouri State advanced to the NCAA Tournament for the fifth time in eight years but the first time since 1999. In 2001, Guttin led the Bears to their first-ever

Guttin’s Milestone Victories

Missouri State

MVC regular season championship and, in the process, dethroned perennial league powerhouse Wichita State. The Shockers had previously won outright or shared the Valley regular season crown in the previous 14 years, but the Bears posted a 22-10 record in 2001 and beat WSU by one game in the final league standings. While the accomplishments of Guttin’s teams on the field speak volumes about the success of his program, another dream came true in April 2004 when the Bears opened a sparkling 8,000-seat stadium just four blocks north of the Missouri State campus. The Bears finished the year ninth among NCAA Division I teams in attendance and that was playing only a portion of their home schedule at Hammons Field. It’s just a coincidence that the crown jewel of the Missouri State baseball program came one year after the Bears exploded onto the national college baseball radar in the College World Series. But both events show the growth of college baseball in the Ozarks and the amount of community and

administrative support the program had received in the last several years. Throughout those years, Guttin has been the face of Missouri State baseball. A part of the MSU baseball program as a player, assistant coach and head coach for 33 of the program’s 47 years, Guttin took the helm of Bears baseball at the start of the 1983 season, coinciding with the move of Missouri State athletics to Division I status. He inherited the reins of the program from its only previous head baseball coach, former Missouri State Director of Athletics Bill Rowe. Guttin stretched the string of MSU consecutive winning seasons to 32 in a row; easily the longest of any Missouri State athletics team. The Bears have finished in the top half of the conference race every year but three in the last 35 seasons. Missouri State slipped to 10-11 in 1992, 15-17 in 2000, 10-14 in 2005 and 7-17 in 2007 in the Bears’ only years in the past 35 seasons without a winning league record. The Bears have finished lower than third in the league standings just five times since Guttin took over. Guttin directed Missouri State to six straight league titles in Mid-Continent play from 1984 through 1989. He gave MSU its first two Valley postseason tournament championships in 1996 and 1997. He was voted the MVC Coach of the Year in 1993, 2001, 2003 and 2008 and was selected the American Baseball Coaches Association Division I Midwest Region Coach of the Year in 1997 and again in 2003. Missouri State ran through MCC regular season and tourney play annually from 1983 through 1989. Missouri State faltered only once, finishing as tourney

runner-up in 1990, its final MCC season before moving to the Valley. Guttin was named MCC Coach of the Year each season from 1984 through 1989. In 1986, Missouri State had its best record ever, going 47-14. In 1987, the 38-14 Bears got their first NCAA Division I tourney bid, playing in the West II Regional in Tempe, Ariz. In 1988, the 41-17 Bears became the first team to go through regular season MCC play undefeated, and in 1989 went 41-10 for the third best winning percentage and third fewest losses of any Division I team. The 1990 Bears were 42-15 and again perfect in regular season league play. Missouri State capped the year with Guttin’s 300th win and left the Mid-Continent with the best overall, conference and league tourney marks. In 1991, Missouri State joined the Valley, reaching the 40-win plateau and finishing fourth in its first Valley campaign. In 1993, the Bears finished second as Guttin was named MVC Coach of the Year. The 1995 Bruins were second in the MVC Tournament and added an NCAA visit, playing in the West Regional in Fresno, Calif. In 1996, Missouri State won its first MVC tourney, capped by Guttin’s 500th career win, an 8-7 victory over top-ranked Wichita State in the winner’s bracket final. Missouri State won its first NCAA Division I tourney games, beating Long Beach State and UCLA to finish third in the Central I Regional in Austin, Texas. The 1997 Bears repeated the MVC crown and knocked off Texas Tech and Nevada on the way to a runner-up finish in the NCAA Central Regional in Lubbock, Texas. Missouri State was at the Fayetteville regional in 1999, finishing second with wins over Clemson and Arkansas. Guttin returned to Missouri State in 1982 after a year at Rend Lake College where he served as assistant coach to Kirk Champion as RLC claimed an Illinois JUCO sectional crown. Guttin was a Missouri State assistant under Rowe from 1979 to 1981, as Missouri State won its last MIAA title and made two NCAA appearances. Guttin had two notable seasons as the Missouri State second baseman, coming from Mineral Area College. He earned MIAA all-conference honorable mention in 1977 as the Bears made their first NCAA Division II tournament appearance in seven years. A University City native, Guttin finished his undergraduate degree at the University of Missouri-St. Louis in 1978, and earned his master’s degree in 1984 at Truman State. He and his wife, Marianne, have three daughters; Lauren, Lindsey and Samantha.

veteran assistant coach who’s been at Missouri State alongside Bears’ head coach Keith Guttin since he took over the baseball reins in 1983, Brent Thomas is one of the senior assistants in the Missouri Valley Conference as he enters his 30th year on the MSU staff. Thomas has been the Bears’ first base coach for six Mid-Continent Conference championship years, MVC titles in 1996, 1997, 2001, 2003 and 2009, and all seven of the Bears’ trips to the NCAA tournament. In addition to coaching, Thomas’s duties include academic evaluation of players and game administration, as well as working with hitters and outfielders. Under his guidance, Thomas stayed with the program after his days as a Bear outfielder in 1981 and 1982. He came to MSU after earning MVP honors twice at Crowder College in Neosho, Mo. A native of Marshfield, Mo., Thomas played for the Bears’ unbeaten MIAA Southern Division champs in 1981 and the 1982 team which closed the Bears’ Division II days with a regional title and a trip to the NCAA World Series in Riverside, Calif. Thomas hit .380 for the 32-12 MSU team in 1981 as the Bears came within a game of winning the MIAA crown and advancing to NCAA play. He hit .352 his senior year as Missouri State was 31-14 and won its final Division II

aul Evans moves into his 24th season with the Bears, having come to Missouri State as pitching coach in 1989 after three years as head coach at Rend Lake College. Evans also serves as the recruiting coordinator for the baseball Bears. Over the past six seasons, Evans has coached the two highest draft picks in MSU history, with Brett Sinkbeil going 19th overall in 2006 and Ross Detwiler as the sixth overall pick in 2007. Detwiler made his major league debut with the Washington Nationals on Sept. 7, 2007, a mere 108 days after his final outing in a Bears’ uniform. In fact, Evans has coached three first-round pitchers in the last 11 seasons, including John Rheinecker as the 37th overall pick in 2001. A total of 51 hurlers have signed pro contracts under Evans’ tutelage, with at least one in each of his 23 seasons and eight advancing to the major leagues. Additionally, Evans has seen three Bears selected to pitch for Team USA: Jarrod Mays (1995), Bob Zimmermann (2001 and 2002) and Detwiler (2006). In 2001, the Bears led the MVC and were 17th in the country with a 3.63 earned run average. Rheinecker became the highest draft pick in MSU history in June of 2001 and Zimmermann led the USA National Team in saves and appearances. In 1990, Evans coached the staff to a school record ERA of 2.91 which was sixth in Division I. Evans guided Rend Lake to a 201-95 mark in three years which included two Illinois juco sectional titles. Rend Lake missed the 1986 juco World Series by one game. A native of Granite City, Ill., Evans played football and baseball at South High School. He pitched his American Legion teams to back-to-back state

runner-up finishes and had a 50-8 combined career record in high school and American Legion. He gained Illinois all-state honors in baseball while in high school and in 2000, he was inducted in the Granite City Sports Hall of Fame. Evans was 18-7 at Southern Illinois before graduating from SIU in 1981. His 0.84 ERA as a sophomore was third in NCAA Division I and he tossed a no-hitter against SIU Edwardsville. Additonally, his nine career saves still rank sixth all-time at SIU. Evans was head coach at Shawnee Junior College and assisted at RLC two years before becoming head coach. A Central Illinois Collegiate League and Cape Cod League hurler, he returned to Cape Cod in 1988 as pitching coach at Yarmouth-Dennis. Evans has three children, Kyle, Kameron and Kassidy.

Kyle Moats was introduced as Missouri State University’s 10th director of athletics on May 28, 2009.

REVIEW

issouri State University’s search for its new director of athletics concluded May 28, 2009, with the introduction of Kyle Moats as the University’s 10th A.D. Moats came to the University after serving as associate athletics director for national marketing at the University of Louisville since 2005. Moats began his duties at Missouri State in July 2009, replacing Bill Rowe, who retired after spending 27 years as Missouri State’s top athletics administrator and more than a half century at the university as a student, coach and administrator. In a busy first year on the job, Moats wasted little time in laying groundwork for the future of Missouri State Athletics. From day one he emphasized the importance of fostering a strategic vision in the current landscape of intercollegiate athletics by involving all corners of the campus community in developing a long-range plan for the MSU Athletics. Moats played a key role in Missouri State’s new partnership with Nelligan Sports Marketing (NSM), announced in February 2010. The agreement will result in the outsourcing of the departments’ marketing and corporate sales operations while maximizing revenue potential for MSU Athletics. Additionally, Moats was instrumental in MSU’s negotiations for a new multi-year television contract with KY3, Inc. Year two for Moats in Springfield saw Missouri State finish second in the 2010-11 MVC All-Sports Trophy standings--its best finish in five years. Conference titles by men’s basketball, women’s swimming and softball, as well as postseason tournament berths for both MSU basketball programs highighted the Bears’ year. Prior to his arrival in Springfield, Moats spent four years as associate athletics director for national marketing at Louisville. In that capacity, he coordinated the Cardinals’ efforts in national awareness, marketing, branding and group ticket sales. He also worked closely with Nelligan, which manages the exclusive marketing rights for Cardinal Athletics. Moats oversaw the Louisville band and spirit squads as the liaison with student government and student spirit groups. Prior to joining the Louisville staff, Moats served as senior associate athletic director for two years at Marquette University, where he oversaw the Golden Eagles’ Blue and Gold Fund, media relations, ticket operations, special events, licensing, radio, television, marketing and promotions and sponsorships with NSM. He also worked 14 years in the University of Kentucky athletics department, including his last three there as associate athletics director for marketing (2000-02). Moats joined the UK staff as a graduate assistant in the athletics office in 1989, and in 1991 was promoted to coordinator of promotions and special events. He became the Wildcats’ director of marketing, promotions and licensing in 1993 before being named assistant athletics director for marketing in 1996. He served as tournament manager for the 1993 NCAA Golf Championships and the 1996 and 1998 NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament events in Lexington. A native of Dixon, Ill., Moats is a 1988 graduate of Southern Illinois University at Edwardsville with a bachelor’s degree in physical education. While at SIUE, Moats was a three-year letterwinner in golf and was a student assistant basketball coach for the Cougars from 1985-1988. He earned a master’s degree in sports management from the University of Kentucky in 2001. Moats and his wife, Leeann, have two children, Kirk and Lauren.

Missouri State University (MSU) is committed to an intercollegiate athletics program which complements the mission of the University and operates in accordance with the principles and regulations of the National Collegiate Athletic Association. As a member of various athletics conferences, MSU is committed to academic and athletics excellence, sound fiscal management practices, enhancement of the physical and educational welfare of student-athletes, equal opportunity, character development, principles of amateurism, as well as the fundamental values of sportsmanship, civility, and the common virtue of good citizenship.

The Bears Fund The Bears Fund is the annual fund-raising program for Missouri State intercollegiate athletics that was established in 1981 in conjunction with the move of MSU athletics to NCAA Division I status. The fund’s name stands for “Building Excellence in Athletics through Recruiting and Scholarships,” and its impact on Missouri State Athletics has grown substantially throughout the 30 years of its existence. The 2010-11 drive netted over $2.75 million, marking the 23rd year in a row in which total contributions to The Bears Fund have gone beyond $1 million. The fund is administered by the Missouri State University Foundation with additional input from coaching and administrative staff members in intercollegiate athletics. Contributors of $50 or more during each year are recognized as members at various giving levels in The Bears Fund, and as such, receive benefits within the athletic program, including game program recognition, online athletics newsletter, and parking and postseason ticket considerations. Bears Fund gifts may be earmarked for specific sports or general use and the money is used to enhance MSU athletics, particularly in the areas of scholarships and recruiting. Contributions may be cash, gifts in kind of goods or services, matching gifts from employers, bequests or life income trusts and honorary or memorial gifts. An additional fund-raising event that’s a popular late-summer social event for MSU fans is the Missouri State Auction Benefiting Athletics. Held in August for each of the past 25 years, the auction has generated additional income for athletic uses with an evening of food, fun and entertainment. Individuals and businesses donate goods or services for sale at the auction, and the income derived from that sale goes to intercollegiate athletics. Items available for purchase at the auction since it began in 1987 have included automobiles, a thoroughbred racehorse, country club memberships, advertising packages, travel opportunities including road trips with MSU athletic teams, furs, jewelry, sports memorabilia, and unique items such as the chance to join MSU coaches on the sidelines during varsity contests. Sixteen of the last seventeen auctions have netted more than $100,000 for MSU Athletics, and the 2010 auction raised more than $110,000.

Dan Kickham

issouri State found itself in familiar territory in 2011, the thick of the Missouri Valley Conference baseball race, but a frustrating week-and-a-half in Omaha at the end of the season saw the Bears finish the campaign with a 33-23 overall record and RPI in the low 60s, ending an otherwise successful season just outside the elusive NCAA Tournament.

review

Quick Start

records

Despite falling to Air Force (7-2) and Washington (6-3) on opening day (Feb. 18), the Bears ran out to an 8-3 start behind a spectacular .341 team batting average through 11 games. The season’s first victory came in 12-8 fashion at NCAA qualifier Texas State, and, after a 16-4 loss to Nebraska in San Marcos, the Bears returned to Texas the following weekend and began a season-long seven-game winning streak. In Arlington, the Bears rolled to a 17-3 win over super regional qualifier Dallas Baptist on Feb. 25, then scored three runs in the first inning and held for a 3-2 win over UT Arlington. Nick Petree pitched the final three innings for the save, his first of many notable pitching performances, and Aaron Conway ended the game with a diving catch in right-center. The Bears concluded UTA’s tournament with a 2-0 victory over South Dakota State as Blake Barber scattered five hits in 8.1 innings and Dan Kickham earned the first of his school-record 13 saves on the season Missouri State stayed on the road for a March 1 game at Oklahoma State, and the Bears held the Cowboys to six hits with five innings from Clay Murphy and four from Petree. Kevin Medrano hit a two-run triple in the third, returning from an injury suffered in the season opener, as the Bears won 3-2.

Despite Strong Campaign, Bears Miss Out on NCAA Tournament Berth

2012 Missouri State Baseball Guide

MSU opened the home schedule March 4 with three games against North Dakota. Brent Seifert capped a 4-for-6 day with a walk-off double in the ninth for a 9-8 win in the opener, while Conway went 4-for-5 in each of the next two contests, helping the Bears win 12-4 and 13-0 on the way to MVC Player of the Week honors.

Bears Hit the Skids

Missouri State followed its 8-3 start with a five-game losing streak that quickly sent the Bears back to .500. In the first game of a four-game road trip, Arkansas State led 6-2 after three innings and eventually knocked off MSU 6-5 on March 9. A three-game sweep at Southern Miss followed as the Golden Eagles outscored the Bears 35-8 on the way to vaulting themselves into the national rankings for the rest of the year. The Bears returned home March 15 and lost a 13-inning affair to Southeast Missouri State 8-7. The game was tied 7-7 after the fifth and the Bears failed to record a hit after the seventh in dropping to 8-8 on the year.

Consistency is Key

After the first SEMO loss, Missouri State did not lose consecutive games for six weeks, getting to 24-15 overall and 6-3 and league play entering a late April series at Evansville. Petree tossed seven shutout innings in his first start of the year and Travis McComack ended the game with a ninth-inning sacrifice fly as the Bears upended SEMO 2-1 on March 16. Missouri State then hosted Western Illinois for a weekend series, beating the Leathernecks 9-1 on Friday (March 18) and winning the next game 5-2 on Saturday and Sunday as weather broke the game up across two

days. Sunday’s finale saw the Bears trail 8-0 after six innings before scoring three in the seventh and five in the eighth, but it was a WIU run in the top of the eighth that made the difference in a 9-8 defeat. A split weekend with Oral Roberts began March 25 in Tulsa with the Bears overcoming a 3-0 deficit to win 10-5. Seifert homered twice and Petree made his first appearance as MSU’s Friday starter. A rainout Saturday and cold weather led to a single game Sunday, which the Bears won 6-5 thanks to a five-run third inning that included Derek’s Mattea’s two-run homer and a three-run double by Brock Chaffin. The Bears shut out Kansas 6-0 at home on March 30 with seven scoreless innings from Barber, and then beat the Jayhawks 5-1 in Lawrence six days later with a complete game, 10-strikeout effort by Pierce Johnson. In between, Missouri State won another split weekend series, this time against Saint Louis. The Bears scored three in the eighth inning of the April 1 opener to break open a 2-2 game in a 5-3 win, then lost at SLU 6-5 the next day. MSU trailed 4-0 and tied the Billikens 5-5 in the ninth before losing on a wild pitch. Back at Hammons Field on Sunday, the Bears outslugged SLU to a 13-11 win with wind blowing out at upwards of 40 miles per hour. The Bears began conference play at home the following weekend, hosting Wichita State April 8-10. MSU led 8-0 after seven innings in the opener and Petree struck out 11 in eight frames before the Shockers made it interesting in the ninth for an 8-6 final. The Shockers won game two 3-1 after it went into the eighth inning scoreless, and the Bears overcame four separate deficits on Sunday, taking the lead on Voit’s three-run pinch homer in the seventh for an 8-7 victory. An eighth-inning error led to a pair of unearned runs for 16th-ranked Arkansas as the Bears fell 2-1 to the Razorbacks at Hammons on April 12 before heading to Southern Illinois for another MVC series. After poor weather Friday pushed the series back, the Bears used a five-run second and a six-run fourth to beat SIU 11-4. The Salukis returned the favor in the first game of Sunday’s doubleheader, winning 11-1 in seven innings before taking 4-0 lead in the rubber match. Seifert tied the game with a homer in the seventh and McComack gave the Bears the 5-4 win with a sac fly in the eighth. The Bears hiccuped April 19 at Kansas State with a 10-4 loss, but rebounded at home thanks to a seven-RBI day from Chaffin to take game one of the Indiana State series 14-2. The teams played two games Saturday with rain in the forecast, and the Sycamores scored four in the eighth inning of game one to upset the Bears 7-6. As he had done several times previously, Barber delivered in the finale, tossing 6.2 shutout frames as the Bears won 4-1 to claim their third straight league series. Missouri State continued its domination of the Big 12 April 27 at Missouri, holding the Tigers scoreless after third in a 5-2 win. Voit’s two-run homer in the sixth provided the winning RBIs. The Bears finished April on a sour note, being held to a season-low three hits in a 3-1 April 29 loss at Evansville before grounding into a double play to end a 5-4 loss the next day for the first back-to-back losses since March 9-15. Sunday’s game was rained out and the Bears ended April at 24-17 overall and 6-5 in the MVC.

Strong Finish

The Bears jetted to a 7-1 start to the month of May to set themselves up for a showdown at Creighton for the MCV championship. Missouri State opened with a May 3 shutout of Missouri, winning 5-0 behind seven stolen bases and seven shutout innings from Johnson.

Review

Missouri State head coach Keith Guttin (Missouri-St. Louis, 1978) completed his 29th season with a career record of 992-630 (.612), just eight wins shy of joining the exclusive 1,000 victory club. He would become just the third Valley coach to achieve the milestone, joining Wichita State’s Gene Stephenson and Indiana State’s Bob Warn. Guttin became the first coach at Missouri State (in any sport) to reach the 900-win mark with the May 11, 2008, win over Middle Tennessee at Hammons Field.

Medrano earned his third consecutive first-team All-MVC selection and highlighted five Bears on all-conference squads. Kickham joined Medrano on the first team as the league’s Newcomer of the Year, while Petree was the

Guttin Approaching Milestone

The Bears found their offense at the MVC Tournament, scoring 16 runs and batting .375 in a 2-0 start that included a 6-4 win over Southern Illinois and a 10-3 thumping of top-seeded Creighton. Missouri State was in the driver’s seat at that point, needing one more victory to advance to the championship game. CU emerged from the loser’s bracket and tipped the Bears 6-5 to force an if necessary game in Bracket 1. MSU lost leads of 2-0, 3-2 and 5-3, committed four errors and left the bases loaded to end the game in a frustrating defeat. The next night, Creighton scored three runs in the first inning of the winner-take-all game to knock Grant Gordon out after one inning. J.C. Casey relieved Gordon, and the Bears tied the game behind Voit’s RBI single in the fourth and Trey Massenberg’s two-run,. pinch-hit double in the sixth. Ten innings later, Casey had yet to allow a run while striking out 11, the longest relief outing in school history, but the game remained tied 3-3 entering the 12th. The Bears had left five runners on base in the previous four innings and stranded two more in the 12th against CU’s last available pitcher, and the Jays came through with a leadoff walk that turned into the winning run with two outs when Kickham’s wild pitch went through Brett Marshall’s legs, ending the Bears’ season with a painful 4-3 loss.

coaching staff

Chaffin’s .344 average led a balanced offensive attack with seven regulars that hit .286 or better. Medrano and Conway each hit .325 to join Chaffin in the .300 club. Conway led the Bears with 75 hits, 52 runs, 16 doubles, five triples and 19 steals. Seifert paced the club with nine homers and 43 RBIs while tying Conway with 16 doubles. Six Bears in total drove in at least 30 runs, while Spiker Helms drew 42 walks to lead in that category. On the mound, Petree’s nine wins, 96 innings, 2.81 ERA and 81 strikeouts led the major pitching categories. Kickham topped the team with 13 saves and 25 appearances, while Barber led with 15 starts to go with eight wins in 93.1 innings. Gordon made 14 starts while Johnson struck out 72 in 75.2 frames. Voit recorded 405 putouts between catcher and first base, McComack led in assists for the second year in a row with 134 along with 30 double plays, and Brett Marshall’s .986 fielding percentage led all players with at least 100 chances.

Stat Wrap

Heartbreak at the MVC Tournament

Honor Roll

Missouri State saw just two players and one signee chosen in the June draft. Medrano went to the Cardinals in the 14th round as the 440th overall pick and decided to return to Missouri State for his senior season. Kickham went a day later as Detroit’s 33rd round choice (1,007th overall) and signed almost immediately, beginning his pro career shortly thereafter for the Tigers’ Gulf Coast League rookie team. Kickham improved his draft stock four rounds after turning down Colorado’s offer as a 37th rounder out of Crowder College in 2010. Casey signed a free agent deal with the Chicago White Sox and shipped off to Great Falls, Mont., for his first pro assignment, and Barber continued his career in non-affiliated ball as a member of the Frontier League’s Gateway Grizzlies. Signee Joey Hawkins, an infielder from Canada, was drafted by Kansas City in the 42nd round and elected to attend MSU.

The Bears

Conway stole his 69th career base at the MVC Tournament to tie Dant’e Brinkley’s school record as one of many Bears to leave their marks on the record book. The senior also finished his career third at MSU with 16 career triples, sixth with 17 sacrifice bunts and 11th with 160 singles. His 2011 totals of 12 HBP (t-5th) and 19 steals (t-11th) also made season lists. Medrano concluded his junior season tied for the

Record Book Update

career lead with 20 sac bunts, tied for seventh with 179 singles, sixth with 409 assists and 11th with 86 double plays turned. His six sacrifice flies in 2011 tied for fifth in season history, and his 59 singles tied for ninth. McComack moved into seventh in career history with 89 walks and 408 assists while ranking ninth with 90 double plays. His six sac flies in 2011 tied Medrano for fifth in a season. Kickham tied Shaun Marcum’s school record of 13 saves in 2011, which also rates third for a career. His 25 appearances tied for second. Petree set freshman records with nine wins and 96 innings. His innings total ranks sixth all-time for a single season while nine wins ranks seventh among all players. Barber’s 15 starts tied for third all-time, while his eight wins ranked just outside the top 10. Additionally, Helms drew 42 walks to rank third for a single season and tied with Coach Guttin’s 1976 total on the list.

Missouri State

MVC Freshman of the Year and one of three Bears on the all-conference second team. Chaffin made the second team as a designated hitter while Voit earned a spot as the utility player. Petree also earned Freshman All-America honors from Collegiate Baseball and the NCBWA. Conway (March 7) and Medrano (May 9) won MVC Player of the Week honors, while Kickham (May 16) and Clay Murphy (May 22) collected the league’s final two weekly pitching awards of the season. Along with his MVC honor, Conway was also the CollegeBaseballInsider.com Central Region Player of the Week. Casey, Chaffin, Conway, Medrano and Seifert decorated the MVC all-tournament squad, while Conway and Seifert earned MVC Scholar-Athlete first team recognition and Casey was an honorable mention pick. Medrano was voted by his teammates as the team’s A.E. “Ted” Willis Most Valuable Player after the season for the second consecutive year, while Petree was the Dave Dickensheet Pitcher of the Year and the Danny Cook Rookie of the Year.

outlook /

A trip to Illinois State followed, and the Bears were positioned for a sweep before a tough Sunday loss. On Friday (May 6), MSU scored eight runs after a 2-2 tie in the fifth to win 10-3, then got two-run doubles from Seifert and Medrano in the late innings Saturday to win 6-3. In the finale, ISU grabbed a 4-0 lead without benefit of a hit and won 8-3. After finals week, the Bears hosted last-place Bradley and earned a tough sweep. MSU overcame a 2-0 deficit to win 5-4 on Friday (May 13), then used eight innings from Barber to win 2-1 on Saturday. Voit doubled and scored in the fourth for MSU’s offense. Chaffin homered twice and Missouri State scored five times in the seventh to win 7-4 on Sunday that pushed its league record to 11-6. The Bears edged No. 22 Oklahoma State two days later to close the non-conference schedule and finish the year 6-2 against Big 12 schools. Murphy continued his dominance against the Cowboys, tossing eight shutout innings with 10 strikeouts and pushing his career numbers against OSU to 20 innings, 10 hits and 25 Ks. Kickham allowed three runs for a tie in the ninth and McComack ended the game with a sacrifice fly for a 4-3 win. The season came down to the May 19-21 series at Creighton, with the Bears in control of their own destiny. Missouri State would claim the league title with a sweep at TD Ameritrade Park, and a series win and help elsewhere around the league would also provide a championship. Petree fired a complete game in the series opener, but the Bears left the bases loaded in the eighth and suffered a stinging 3-2 loss. Friday’s game started after Wichita State’s series at Bradley ended with a WSU sweep, meaning Missouri State’s hopes for a title were over. The deflated Bears were hitless until the sixth inning and finally scratched across a run in the eighth in a 3-1 loss. Another 3-1 loss Saturday concluded the regular season with an 11-9 record and fourth-place league finish entering the State Farm MVC Tournament in Omaha.

MSU joined the Missouri Valley Conference in 1990 and first played in the MVC tournament in 1991. The MVC tourney is a double elimination event which has, in some years, involved all of the league’s baseball schools. Beginning in 1992 and lasting through 2009, only the top six teams in the final regular season standings advanced to the league meet. In 2010, the tournament expanded to include all eight league schools, as UNI departed following the 2009 season. The tourney champ receives the MVC’s automatic berth to the NCAA Division I Baseball Championship. Since the Bears joined the league, the tournament has been held in Wichita, Kan. (1991-1994 and 1996-1997, 1999-2003, 2005-06, 2008-10), Springfield, Mo. (2004, 2007), Springfield, Ill. (1995), Evansville, Ind. (1998) and Omaha, Neb. (2011).

fter 19 years in the NCAA Division II ranks which included seven appearances in the Division II tournament and four trips to the Division II World Series, MSU moved to Division I in 1983. MSU hosted the first four D-II World Series at Meador Park. The Bears played in two of those events, finishing as the national runner-up in 1969 and third in 1970. MSU won regional tournament titles and went to the Division II World Series in 1978 in Springfield, Ill., and in 1982 at Riverside, Calif. In 1987, the Bears made their first appearance in the NCAA Division I Tournament at Tempe, Ariz., and in 2003 advanced to the Division I College World Series for the first time in school history. MSU had three straight NCAA visits in 1995, 1996 and 1997, competing in regionals at Fresno, Calif., Austin, Texas and Lubbock, Texas. After a one-year absence from postseason play, MSU returned to NCAA play in the 1999 Fayetteville (Ark.) Regional. In 2002, MSU made the regional tournament with a trip to Lincoln, Neb. The Bears returned to Lincoln in 2003 and won the regional before sweeping the Columbus Super Regional over Ohio State. The Bears were winless in their 1987 and 1995 NCAA outings but claimed two wins and played on the final day in each of the four subsequent regionals, finishing third in regional play in 1996 and second in the 1997, 1999 and 2002 regional fields. In 2003, MSU was 3-1 at the Lincoln Regional, 2-0 at the Columbus Super Regional and 0-2 in the CWS in Omaha, Neb.

On Dec. 18, 2010, Missouri State retired the No. 6 jersey of former Bear and 2006 National League Most Valuable Player Ryan Howard at JQH Arena. A St. Louis native who played at Missouri State from 1999-2001, Howard finished his collegiate career with 50 home runs, 183 RBIs and a .335 career average in 172 games. He was the 1999 Missouri Valley Conference Freshman of the Year and MSU’s A.E. “Ted” Willis Most Valuable Player in 2000. Since being drafted by Philadelphia in the fifth round of the 2001 draft, Howard has enjoyed a standout professional career. His long list of accomplishments as a member of the Phillies includes 2005 National League Rookie of the Year, 2006 NL MVP, 2006 Home Run Derby champion, 2008 World Series champion, 2009 NLCS MVP and three All-Star selections. Howard debuted with the Phillies in 2004, accumulating a career batting average of .275 with 286 homers and 864 RBIs in 1,027 games over eight seasons.

On Saturday, May 8, 2004, former head baseball coach and director of athletics Bill Rowe became the first person in the 48-year history of the MSU baseball program to have his number retired. Rowe guided the baseball Bears as head coach for 19 years from the start of the program in 1964 through its final season in NCAA Division II in 1982. He led the Bears to a 394-230-1 record and four Division II College World Series appearances. Under Rowe, the Bears finished as national runners-up in 1969 and finished third nationally in 1970 (just the sixth and seventh years of the program). As athletic director, Rowe guided the Bears from Division II to Division I and saw the Bears change leagues from the MIAA and Mid-Continent Conferences to a current membership in the Missouri Valley Conference. The retirement ceremony for Rowe’s jersey was held prior to the Bears’ doubleheader against Illinois State. The indoor practice facility at Hammons Field also bears Rowe’s name as of January 30, 2010.

he Missouri State University Athletics Hall of Fame was established in 1975 by athletics director Aldo Sebben and the Women’s Athletics Hall of Fame was founded in 1981 by women’s athletics director Dr. Mary Jo Wynn. The first 23 years of the men’s hall saw 179 people enshrined, while 70 went into the first 18 induction classes of the women’s hall. The two shrines merged and had their first joint induction in 1999. The combined Hall is now housed on the Price Cutter Concourse in JQH Arena as part of the Legacy of Competition exhibit. The 2012 induction class brought the total membership of the combined Hall of Fame to 332 former athletes, coaches and administrators. 1975-76 INDUCTION

Men’s Basketball March 1-4 • St. Louis, Mo.

-- Drake University and Iowa State College -- were admitted. In the fall of 1907, basketball became the first competitive sport. Today, the Missouri Valley Conference sponsors the following sports: baseball, men’s and women’s basketball, men’s and women’s cross country and track & field (indoor and outdoor), men’s and women’s golf, men’s and women’s soccer, softball, women’s swimming and diving, men’s and women’s tennis, and women’s volleyball. While The Valley no longer sponsors football (it did from 1907-85), six league members compete in football at the FCS (Football Championship Subdivision) level as Illinois State, Indiana State, Missouri State, UNI and Southern Illinois play in the nine-member Missouri Valley Football Conference (with North Dakota State, South Dakota State, Western Illinois and Youngstown State). That league competed as the Gateway Conference from 1985-2007. Drake plays non-scholarship football in the Pioneer Football League. Athletic accomplishments on the men’s athletics side include 14 national basketball championships, 16 trips to the NCAA Final Four, a 1989 national baseball championship and 19 College World Series qualifiers. In 2010, Missouri State’s men’s basketball program won the CollegeInsider.com Postseason Tournament, the league’s first national title in men’s basketball since 1982 (Bradley, NIT). In 2001, Missouri State added to The Valley women’s accomplishments, as the Lady Bears advanced to the Women’s Basketball Final Four in St. Louis. Creighton (2004) and Missouri State (2005) have claimed national championships (WNIT) in women’s basketball, while MSU also has a 1992 NCAA Women’s Final Four appearance, and Creighton (2003), Drake (1999) and Illinois State (2009) have made semifinal trips to the WNIT postseason tournament. Indeed, the inclusion of women’s programs under The Valley banner has provided a boost. The Gateway Collegiate Athletic Conference -- which began in 1982 -- merged with the Missouri Valley Conference and was unveiled as part of the new conference on July 1, 1992. The Valley began honoring its storied tradition in the summer of 1997, when the conference began its athletics Hall of Fame. Hersey Hawkins of Bradley, Larry Bird of Indiana State, Wes Unseld of Louisville, Coach Henry Iba of Oklahoma State, Dave Stallworth of Wichita State, Ed Macauley of Saint Louis, and Oscar Robertson of Cincinnati were members of the initial induction class. Currently, nearly 40 former players, coaches and alums dot the league’s Hall of Fame. From its early beginning to its current standing on the map of college athletics, The Valley will always continue to be proactive in its approach. League members include Bradley, Creighton, Drake, Evansville, Illinois State, Indiana State, Missouri State, Northern Iowa, Southern Illinois, and Wichita State. Central Arkansas, Eastern Illinois and SIU Edwardsville are affiliate members in men’s soccer.

rom its early beginning to its current standing on the map of college athletics, the Missouri Valley Conference continues to be proactive in its approach as it enters its 104th year in 2010-11. The nation’s second-oldest NCAA Division I conference is a leader in college athletics and is one of the nation’s most progressive conferences. The Missouri Valley Conference enters a new decade facing a rapidly changing environment in NCAA Division I athletics as conference expansion and realignment swept the nation in the summer of 2010. Although The Valley was untouched, the league will remain vigilant in monitoring changes or potential changes in other conferences that might impact membership, or present opportunities for expansion. In softball, the MVC returned to its multi-bid status after a one-year hiatus, sending two teams – Creighton and Illinois State – to the NCAA Tournament. The 2010 campaign marked the seventh time in eight seasons that the Valley has placed multiple teams into the NCAA field. Meanwhile, the success of The Valley television package is one of the great stories in the league. The MVC Television Network has blossomed into a revenue-generating vehicle and The Valley’s most visible marketing tool. Meanwhile, The Valley is making videostreaming a major focus as it enters the second year of a three-year plan to upgrade the production and marketing of both institutionally-produced and conferenceproduced webcasts. The 2003-04 campaign was a landmark for the conference as State Farm Insurance and the league came to terms on an agreement that provides State Farm with title sponsorship of all of the league’s 18 championships. Last fall, The Valley took a major step toward ensuring current revenues in television media and tournament sponsorship sales would be guaranteed in future years when it announced a 10-year partnership with Learfield Sports. The Jefferson City, Missouri-based company now has the exclusive sales and marketing rights to MVC assets that include championships and television advertising. During the tenure of Doug Elgin, The Valley’s ninth and longest-tenured commissioner, The Valley has been aggressive in hosting NCAA events in St. Louis. Since 1998, the MVC served as host for a staggering nine NCAA tournament events in the 13-year period, which has made St. Louis one of the most frequent stops on the NCAA Tournament trail. The Valley hosted Women’s Final Fours in 2001 and 2009, and the Men’s Final Four in 2005. The seeds for the creation of the conference were planted by eight administrators representing five institutions, who met at the Midland Hotel in Kansas City, Mo., on Jan. 12, 1907. The five schools which formed the Missouri Valley Intercollegiate Athletic Association were Washington University of St. Louis, and the state universities of Iowa, Kansas, Missouri and Nebraska. Two months after the initial meeting, two more schools
