2016 Missouri State Season Outlook

Bears Riding Last Year’s Momentum Into Big Things Momentum. It’s been a common word around the Missouri State volleyball program since the Bears completed an historic 24-11 season that saw them go to the NCAA Tournament for the eighth time in 13 seasons while churning out multiple All-Americans for the first time in the program’s storied history. And while one of those All-Americans moved on to graduation, the Bears still return a remarkable amount of experience, including nearly 91 percent of last season’s kills, 89 percent of the team’s points and 79 percent of the club’s aces from 2015. Additionally, two-time All-American and reigning Missouri Valley Conference Player of the Year Lily Johnson returns to lead a deep and talented roster that includes a total five players that have earned all-MVC recognition during their careers and three who spent the summer of 2016 honing their skills with USA Volleyball.

Pair

of

Talented Setters

Two players are competing to fill the shoes of All-American Kinsey Batten in running the Bears’ offense, beginning with junior Lauren Boone (Branson, Mo.), who has played all over the court while backing up Batten during her first two seasons on campus. Boone has a career .238 hitting percentage in nearly 500 attempts, and averaged 0.48 blocks as a sophomore while playing mostly on the right side. Daniele Messa (Bartlett, Ill.) is a heralded freshman who won four state championships in high school for one of the top 10 ranked teams in the country. She led St. Francis to a 109-10 overall record in four seasons, was a two-time first-team all-state pick, and a finalist for the Andi Collins Award as a senior, given to the nation’s top setter. Messa’s skill gives the Bears options to run multiple offensive attacks in 2016.

Plenty

of

Offense

Junior Lily Johnson (Wildwood, Mo.) headlines an exceptional group of

offensive players that will be a force for the Bears in 2016. The only two-time All-American in school history, Johnson’s 620 kills as a sophomore ranked third nationally and helped her move to 15th on MSU’s career kills list with more than 1,100 through her first two seasons, and she has at least 10 kills in 61 of 67 career matches. Simone House (Oshkosh, Wis.) enters her senior season with a .305 career attack efficiency, good for fourth in MSU history, and earned second-team all-MVC honors last season after hitting .310 with 242 total kills. Not only an offensive threat, House averaged at least 0.92 blocks per set in each of her first three seasons.

MOATS Director of Athletics Eighth Year at Missouri State

M

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.   During Moats’ tenure at MSU, he has hired seven head coaches, while leading the charge for facility upgrades totaling nearly $22 million, including the Dr. Mary Jo Wynn Academic Achievement Center project, the Jim D. Morris Basketball Complex and new or renovated home facilities for 12 of MSU’s 17 sports. During the 2013-14 academic year, he helped spearhead the passage of the Bear Experience and Recreation (B.E.A.R.) Fee, which now generates $1.4 million annually toward the enhancement of four separate athletics facilities, including Robert W. Plaster Stadium, a new sand volleyball facility, as well as the Betty & Bobby Allison North (field hockey) and South (soccer, track and field) Stadiums currently used by MSU’s intercollegiate and recreational programs. This past February, Moats was appointed to serve on the NCAA Division I Football Championship Committee, which administers playoff selections, seedings and the overall structure of the FCS. In addition to being able to implement several facets of Missouri State’s longrange athletics facilty improvement plan through the B.E.A.R. Fee, Moats’ played a pivotal role on the task force that paved the way for the reinstatement of women’s tennis as a varsity sport in September 2013. As a result of the task force’s careful evaluation and recommendation, President Clif Smart announced the return of women’s tennis for the 2014-15 academic year, making it the 11th women’s sport and the 17th varsity program to operate under the MSU Athletics umbrella. Missouri State’s decision to revive the program after an eight-year hiatus will ensure the University’s long-term compliance with Federal Title IX regulations. 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 partnership with Nelligan Sports Marketing (now Learfield Sports), announced in February 2010. 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 201011 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. In 2011-12, Moats’ third year at the helm, Missouri State enjoyed its finest campaign in nearly a decade, capturing the Missouri Valley Conference All-Sports Trophy for just the fourth time. The Bears won Valley titles in women’s swimming and diving, women’s indoor track and field, women’s basketball and women’s golf that year along with a co-championship in men’s soccer. Additionally, four MSU teams advanced to postseason play, including NCAA Tournament appearances for the Bears’ volleyball, women’s golf and baseball programs. Moats’ efforts helped make the Jim D. Morris Basketball Complex a reality during the 2012-13 academic year. The $3.7 million construction project, completed in

The Bears proved competitive nationally throughout the season, sporting a No. 35 final RPI ranking as the Missouri Valley Conference sent four teams to the postseason.

The foundation for MSU’s high RPI was laid during a non-conference schedule that saw the Bears go 9-4 against a slate that included six eventual NCAA Tournament clubs. Missouri State won its first five matches of the season, opening with a 3-0 record after victories against Furman, Western Michigan and Milwaukee in Wisconsin on Aug. 28-29. The Bears hosted the Dr. Mary Jo Wynn Invitational the first weekend of September, opening with a five-set victory over NCAA-bound Miami (Fla.) and a 3-1 win against Oral Roberts. MSU’s first loss of

Missouri State got back on track Sept. 11 at Western Kentucky with a come-frombehind 3-2 win over the Lady Toppers, who won 31 matches on the year, before suffering a 3-2 setback to Northwestern the next day. The Bears cruised by Middle Tennessee on Sept. 13, then topped UMKC in five sets and swept South Dakota State during the season’s first trip to Lawrence, Kan. MSU concluded the non-conference schedule on Sept. 19 with a 3-0 loss to a Kansas team whose season ended in the Final Four.

Missouri Valley Conference The Missouri Valley Conference, the nation’s second-oldest NCAA Division I conference, continues to be a leader in college athletics and is one of the nation’s most progressive conferences, celebrating its 110th season in 2016-17. League members have worked together to focus on common goals and objectives, placing a high value on league harmony, while continuing to invest in athletic programs to compete at the highest level. The Valley brand remains very strong, both regionally and nationally, and the great athletic tradition of The Valley remains a compelling force in recruiting student-athletes and in marketing all the MVC programs. Men’s basketball continues to be the engine that drives Valley athletic programs. In 2016, UNI and Wichita State represented the Conference in the NCAA Tournament, and the teams combined for three victories. Recent success in resurrecting the challenge series with the Mountain West Conference, and the increased opportunities for MVC teams to participate in ESPN’s early-season multi-team events and in other elite tournaments, have added strong opponents and more national television exposure to the non-conference scheduling mix. While the success of men’s basketball has received the greatest attention, the overall performance of league teams in virtually every sport continues to raise the national profile of the Conference. In women’s basketball in 2016, four Valley teams reached post-season play. MVC Tournament champ Missouri State represented the league in the NCAA Tournament, and the Lady Bears were joined by Drake (WNIT), UNI (WNIT) and Southern Illinois (WBI) in post-season play. The Panthers reached the third round of the WNIT. Meanwhile, the Conference remains committed to keeping the tournament at a neutral site. The women’s tournament, tagged “Hoops in the Heartland,” will compete in the iWireless Center in Moline, Ill., for the second time in 2017 as part of a multi-year agreement to conduct the league’s post-season tournament at a neutral site in the Quad Cities. Bradley In baseball, regular-season and MVC Tournament Champion Dallas Baptist Peoria, Illinois represented the league in the NCAA Tournament and was one win away from reaching the Super Regional, falling to No. 5 overall seed Texas Tech in the regional Drake finals. Four league teams won 30+ games led by the Patriots’ league-best 44 Des Moines, Iowa victories. A total of 17 players were taken in the 2016 Major League Baseball draft. Evansville For the third time in league history, four Valley volleyball teams were selected Evansville, Indiana as part of the field of 64 to play for the 2015 NCAA national title. MVC regularseason and tournament champion Wichita State was joined by at-large selections Illinois State Missouri State, UNI and Southern Illinois in the 2015 NCAA Division I Women’s Normal, Illinois Volleyball Championship. Four conference teams were also a part of the 2010 and 2007 NCAA Volleyball Championship fields. Indiana State Meanwhile, the success of The Valley television package is one of the great Terre Haute, Indiana stories in the league. The MVC Television Network has blossomed into a revenuegenerating vehicle and The Valley’s most visible marketing tool. Also, The Valley Loyola continues to be proactive in upgrading the production and marketing of both Chicago, Illinois institutionally-produced and Conference-produced events. The summer of 2015 yielded two major announces on the TV front, as ESPN Missouri State and the Missouri Valley Conference announced a 10-year extension to their current Springfield, Missouri media rights agreement that will provide increased coverage of Conference events across ESPN platforms through 2023-24. As part of the deal – which continues a UNI business relationship that began in 1986 – ESPN, the Missouri Valley Conference Cedar Falls, Iowa and its 10 member institutions will work jointly to develop in-house production capabilities at each campus that will provide significant national coverage for Southern Illinois multiple sports on ESPN3 and hands-on educational opportunities for students. As a result, ESPN3 will showcase a minimum of 820 events a year (a minimum of 70 Carbondale, Illinois men’s basketball) in the final six years of the agreement on the league’s co-branded Wichita State network (The Valley on ESPN3). During the tenure of Doug Elgin, The Valley’s ninth and longest-tenured Wichita, Kansas commissioner, The Valley has been aggressive in hosting NCAA events in St. Louis. From 1998-2010, the MVC served as host for a staggering nine NCAA tournament events in that 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. In 2016, The Valley hosted a first- and secondround men’s basketball event in Scottrade Center. The Valley also hosted an NCAA second- and third-round men’s basketball event at Scottrade Center in St. Louis in 2014, and in 2013, the league hosted an NCAA second- and third-round men’s basketball event in Kansas City. The Valley previously assisted with preliminary round men’s events in both 2008 and 2012 in Omaha. 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 -- 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. This season, the league will conduct its 106th outdoor track and field championship, its 99th tennis championship, its 63rd baseball tournament, and its 79th golf championship for the men. Those programs, plus other current sponsored sports of cross country (58 years), indoor track (66), men’s soccer (26), women’s soccer (20), and swimming and diving (23), have helped solidify The Valley as one of the nation’s most respected conferences. League members include Bradley, Drake, Evansville, Illinois State, Indiana State, Loyola Chicago, Missouri State, Northern Iowa, Southern Illinois and Wichita State. Central Arkansas and Southern Illinois Edwardsville are affiliate members in men’s soccer; Dallas Baptist is an affiliate member for baseball; Arkansas-Little Rock is an affiliate member in women’s swimming and diving; and Stony Brook competes as an affiliate member in men’s and women’s tennis.

Missouri State NCAA History

The Bears have appeared in the NCAA Tournament 11 times. The Bears earned an at-large berth in 1982 and lost in four games at Texas in the first round. In 1990, Missouri State won the Gateway automatic bid and fell in three games at Hawaii. In 1993, the Bears collected the MVC automatic berth and lost in three games to Illinois. In 2003, the Bears returned to the Tournament but lost in four to Arkansas at Manhattan, Kan. In 2005, the Bears won the MVC Tournament to clinch the automatic berth, falling at Missouri in the first round. In 2006, the Bears broke through with the program’s first NCAA win, defeating Arkansas 3-1 in the first round before falling 3-0 to Oklahoma. MSU made it three in a row in 2007, losing to Oregon in the first round as one of a record four MVC teams included in the field. In 2008, Missouri State fell to UAB in the first round, while the Bears fell to another Alabama school, Auburn, in 2010 as the MVC matched its 2007 record of four bids. The Bears fell to 15th-seeded Pepperdine in the 2011 first round, and fell to Missouri in 2015 in yet another four-bid year for the league. The current MVC membership has a 25-53 mark in NCAA volleyball competition through the 2015 tournament. The all-time Missouri State results in the NCAA: 1982 1990 1993 2003 2005 2006 2006 2007 2008 2010 2011 2015

Hammons Student Center, the home of Missouri State volleyball since the start of the 1976-77 school year.   The one of the largest indoor facilities in southwest Missouri, Hammons has a main arena seating capacity of 8,846. There are 4,646 permanent seats and folding bleacher units on the north and south ends each seat 2,100 fans.   Hammons Student Center was constructed at a cost of $5.5 million and was named for Springfield business executive and former Missouri State student John Q. Hammons, who donated a gift of one million dollars to the project.   The facility grew out of a lengthy project begun by Missouri State students in the early 1970s, with actual construction beginning in January of 1975. The structure, completed in the late summer of 1976, is located on the northwest edge of the Missouri State campus. The land for the building was made available to the University in 1972 by the Springfield Land Clearance for Redevelopment Authority.   An additional $326,000 of the total cost came in a grant from the Department of Housing and Urban Development for the facility’s eight-lane swimming pool. Parking is located south of the building.   The court in the main arena, two more full-size courts in the east and west gyms under the side seats, and two smaller courts under the bleacher units on the north and south ends are marked for basketball, volleyball and tennis. In 1985, Missouri State acquired a hardwood floor, which is laid over the permanent floor for volleyball and basketball competition.   The office space in women’s athletics was doubled in the fall of 1993, and the volleyball locker room was remodeled following the 2005 season, thanks to lead gifts by Chip McGeehan of

Marshfield. Several others have made significant gifts to benefit the locker room projects, including Jim and Joan Cologna.   The Missouri State volleyball and softball teams had shared a locker room since the opening of Hammons Student Center in 1976 and each now has its own space with the completion of the two projects. The new locker rooms each include 20 wooden lockers, a team meeting area, a trophy case, sinks, toilets and individual showers.   The Colognas are longtime supporters of Missouri State volleyball and pledged a significant gift toward the volleyball locker room. The trophy case is named in their honor.   In 2016, a campaign to replace the more than 2,000 existing seats in the lower bowl with maroon versions began, while numerous cosmetic improvements took place both inside and outside the facility.   The swimming pool is equipped for use at either 25 yards or 25 meters and has both one and threemeter diving boards. Hammons Student Center also houses a rifle range, a training room and six racquetball courts.   Hammons contains athletic and building administration offices as well as offices for many coaches, a lounge area, large varsity locker rooms and locker rooms for visiting teams and recreational use.   Performers who have made appearances in Hammons include Bob Hope, Anne Murray, Huey Lewis and the News, Tina Turner, Elvis Presley, Barbara Mandrell, Barry Manilow, Genesis, Dolly Parton, the Harlem Globetrotters, George Carlin, Garth Brooks, John McEnroe, Mikhail Baryshnikov, Amy Grant, Alabama, James Taylor, 98 Degrees and the Dixie Chicks. There have also been appearances in 1986 by President Ronald Reagan, in 1988 by Vice President George Bush and in 2002 by President George W. Bush.

Wooden lockers in the volleyball locker room were introduced after the remodel in 2005. ttt

The Turner Family Practice Court was completed in 2006, helping ease the practice schedule of the volleyball Bears and both basketball programs. The east gym underwent extensive renovations, including the installation of new lighting, wall covering, and the addition of the hardwood floor that was in use in HSC’s main arena from 1985 until February 2006. uuu
