2009-10 OUTLOOK Tajama Ngongba has a 12-piece puzzle to put together with her Radford women’s basketball team in 2009-10, with a mindboggling number of possibilities. Some pieces she knows more about than others. Some pieces, like the seven newcomers, will make the puzzle a season-long process of trial and error. But in year two as the head coach of the Highlanders, it’s a task she’s willing and ready to take on, and one that she thinks her group of “puzzle pieces” is willing to take on together. “I’m a confident person, and confident in our goal as a program to put as unified a group on the floor as we can,” Ngongba says. “To be successful, we have to get to that place, and our players understand that.” Getting to that point has been the goal leading up to this season and it’s taken steps on and off the court to make strides. “We’ve had three things that we’ve lived by this offseason: effort, attitude, and knowing each other,” she says. On the court, that means that both Ngongba and her group need to know who works well in certain situations.
“We’ve got to figure who likes to pass to a certain spot, who can knock down a key shot, and who can run the floor well.” This preseason, her goal for the Highlanders is figuring out how to maximize each of the skills, talents, or abilities that each of the 12 pieces on the floor can bring to the table. “It’s difficult to make someone who has limitations meet expectations,” Ngongba says. “If we can maximize those skills that each individual has, we can make what we’re trying to do a lot easier.” First things first for Ngongba: find out early on where each player’s skill level is, and then add in the wrinkles and challenges of the Division I game. “After we jump start or improve the skills of our players, the next step is develop that into a full court game. We’re going to run, so we want to find out how our players are going to do when we go full speed. Then, we’ll find out how they do full speed, with other players around.” If it sounds like a deliberate process for Ngongba and her team, it is. But she believes it’s the best way to mesh a group of seven new faces with five returning players of varied experience.
“Our overall goal is to have solid chemistry. This is part of getting there.” One player whose experience, and performance, stands out from the rest is preseason all-conference forward Kymesha Alston, the team’s only senior. A player that didn’t start at all as a secondsemester sophomore transfer from Manhattan, Alston was forced into a frontcourt starting position last season with clear expectations from Ngongba to perform. Alston came through, posting 11.3 points and 8.3 rebounds per game, while turning her play up a notch during the Big South slate. In her 16 conference games, Alston knocked down 14.3 points, 9.1 rebounds (seven double-doubles) and hit on 53 percent of her tries from the field. Along with proving herself in the scorebook, Alston took on both tangible and intangible roles for the then-first year head coach. Radford started 1-10 last year before

2009-10 OUTLOOK Alston hit on 9-of-10 shots in a career-high 23-point performance to lift the Highlanders over Gardner-Webb on Jan. 5, sparking a 9-7 run to close out the regular season. Ngongba is equally proud of Alston’s performance as a leader, both late last year and early in this season. “Her commitment is 100 percent, and her desire to win a championship is unparalleled,” she says. “You see that in the way she approaches workouts, in the way she approaches her teammates. She’s had the talk with the underclassmen where she says ‘I want to cut down the nets before I leave.’ “She’s spreading a wonderful, contagious attitude of getting things done, now.” On the court for Alston, there are even more expectations in 2009-10. “I think consistency is the next step for Kymesha,” Ngongba says. “We now know she’s capable, but it’s being able to maintain that performance day in and day out.
“Our goal for this year is that she doesn’t feel like she’s the only threat, because we have other weapons out there.” What those weapons are, only time will tell. Alston went from unheralded to producer last season, and Ngongba will look for copy-cat performances from others this coming season. Two players Ngongba will look to didn’t see the court for Radford last season, juniors Jewell Kinlaw and Brooke McElroy. But both can play the guard and forward positions, and bring experience to the table. Kinlaw averaged 11.8 points and 7.8 rebounds per game for Northwest Shoals Community College (Ala.), hitting 53 percent of her shots and posting a pair of 30-point games. McElroy, who sat out last season after transferring from Monmouth, started in nine games as sophomore in 2007-08, scoring seven points with four rebounds per game while collecting a coteam-high 20 blocks. “Jewell’s going to step in and play in the front court for us, and as athletic as she is, we’re going to rely on her to hold down the interior for us,” Ngongba says. “And Brooke has been hungry sitting out the last year, and I know that she’s eager to get out there and make everyone better.” Two returning players that started for the Highlanders at times last year, juniors Denay Wood and Ciara Hayes, are also part of the mix in the frontcourt. Wood logged 13 starts during the Big South portion of the schedule, playing 26 minutes per outing (3.7 ppg, 5.3 rpg in conference games). Hayes (2.3 ppg, 1.9 rpg) started four times last year and played 12 minutes per contest. Ngongba is also looking for contributions from junior guard Kaylyn Crosier and sophomore center Kahealani Vick, both of whom played in better than 20 games last year off the bench. “It’s a great group that can provide some leadership,” Ngongba says. “I’ve explained to those ladies that they need to be leaders, and that one of them has a chance to serve as one of our co-captains because of great leadership, effort, and positivity.”
Five true freshmen will also compete for a spot on the floor, and it’s a class that Ngongba wants to see leadership out of as well, even though their experience is nonexistent. “The great teams have many players that can bring leadership qualities to the floor,” she says. “I want this group to step up, and speak up, especially if we’re getting beaten on something. Even if they’re on the sideline, I want them to take a leadership role from the sideline.” Even though Ngongba has called on specific players to provide specific skills and abilities, while counting on everyone to speak up, it isn’t about what each player does on their own. But each is an equally important puzzle piece in 2009-10. “Last year I came to a team with a lot of pieces to figure out how they work,” she says. “I have a better idea on some players this season, but the bottom line is the individual piece is not as important as how it all fits together.”

A.D. ROBERT LINEBURG Since being introduced as Radford
University’s Director of Athletics in the fall of 2007, Radford native Robert Lineburg has helped usher in a new era of Highlander athletics, marked by unprecedented on-and off-field improvements and successes. “Robert Lineburg brings a unique collection of skills and experiences that make him a great fit for our program,” Radford President Penelope W. Kyle said. “He is a former coach, he has worked in the corporate world. His ties Robert to the City of Radford will help build LINEBURG community support for Highlander Radford University athletics.” Director of Athletics In his short time with the department, Lineburg has been the catalyst for a number of changes, particularly in areas such as facilities, personnel and strategic planning. His most visible influence to date has been on the Dedmon Center, where Lineburg has been involved with major renovations to the centerpiece of Radford athletics for more than 25 years. Beginning in the spring of 2008, the facility underwent transformations to the arena, including a new steel-supported roof, a new basketball floor, renovated athletic offices, a new-look natatorium, and improved athletic locker, training, and medical facilities. Lineburg has also overseen the hires of four new head coaches, as well as five new athletic administrators. His hires include women’s basketball head coach Taj Njongba, head volleyball coach Marci Jenkins, women’s head golf coach Jeff Beeler, and the promotion of track and field interim director Brent Chumbley to head coaches’ status. Among the administrators added in Lineburg’s tenure are executive associate A.D. Randy Butt, head athletic trainer David Jager, assistant A.D. for communications Joey Beeler, director of student-athlete support services/senior women’s adminstrator Stephanie Ballein, and associate A.D. for external operations Greg Herring. As a result of the changes, Radford achieved a banner year in 2008-09: women’s soccer, men’s basketball, men’s tennis and softball claimed Big South conference crowns and advanced to NCAA Tournament play. Women’s soccer advanced to its fourth tournament, men’s basketball won the Big South regular-season and tournament title to advance to the NCAAs for the first time since 1998, men’s tennis made its third-straight appearance, and softball appeared for the first time and won Radford’s first-ever NCAA tournament game in any sport. He and his staff have also been responsible for creating a five-year strategic plan for the Radford athletic department and building an athletics facilities master plan. Additional achievements include ushering in a new athletics Internet site (RadfordAthletics.com), and helping implement a new ticket system (Ticket Return). Lineburg and his staff have also hosted top-level competition, with three Big South championships taking place on the Radford campus in 2008-09 (men’s basketball, track
68
& field and softball). In addition to making an impact on Radford athletics, Lineburg is also involved in a number of different organizations and committees. He is the chairman of the Big South Conference Subcommittee on Basketball Improvement, a member of the Big South ad-hoc Committee on Basketball Issues, and a member of the selection committee to select Radford University’s Vice President for Advancement. Prior to becoming Radford’s third Director of Athletics, Lineburg’s corporate knowledge was groomed as a marketing associate with Peloton Real Estate Partners in Dallas, Texas. Along with his business experience, Lineburg spent 15 seasons as a college basketball coach, including time as Southern Methodist’s (Dallas, Texas) interim head coach. Prior to serving as the Mustangs interim head coach, Lineburg spent eight years as an assistant coach at SMU. Following his interim tenure, he served two more seasons as an assistant coach at Southern Methodist. Lineburg’s coaching resume also includes assistant coaching positions with the men’s basketball programs at James Madison University and Emory & Henry College, as well as with the Dallas Mavericks summer league team. His coaching experience also took him through the Big South, as he spent time on the sideline at UNC Greensboro.

ATHLETIC TRAINING / S.A.S.S. The department of sports medicine at RU is deeply concerned with both the short-term and long-term effects of intercollegiate competition on the physical and mental well being of the studentathlete. The sports medicine department is committed to providing quality health care to all varsity studentathletes, which begins with injury prevention. It is a priority to work with coaches, physicians, and the rest of the medical community to ensure that student-athletes are physically and mentally prepared for practice and competition. Additionally, the sports medicine staff is responsible for the treatment and rehabilitation of all athletically related injuries. It is the staff’s goal to return the athlete to a level equal or above that of their pre-injury status; no athlete will return to play until his or her highest post-injury level of function has been achieved. Lastly, the concern from the physical well being of the student-athlete includes the opposition to the use of all illegal and NCAA-banned chemical substances by student-athletes. It is the responsibility of the sports medicine staff to provide athletes with information on the ill effects of drug use and to provide deterrents through periodic, random drug testing by the institution and the NCAA.
The mission of the Student-Athlete Support Services (SASS) office for Radford University Athletics is to promote, assist, and provide counsel to all student-athletes. Its primary, constant goal is to develop graduates and outstanding citizens who have contributed in the areas of athletic competition during their tenures of education. Located in the Dedmon Center, the newly established Learning Enhancement Center (LEC) is equipped with computers, tutorial rooms, and a study lounge. The Learning Enhancement Center provides direction for student-athletes via academic counseling in conjunction with advisors from the respective colleges at Radford University.

BIG SOUTH CONFERENCE Since its founding in 1983, the Big South Conference has matured into a competitive leader in college athletics, actively pursuing excellence on the field of play and in the classroom. The League’s growing presence as an NCAA Division I athletic conference is evident by athKYLE letic accomplishments KALLANDER on the national stage, Commissioner innovative marketing and media partnerships, increased television packages, and quality athletic competition while intentionally fostering the academic, personal, social, athletic and leadership development of each student-athlete. This has evolved into the Conference’s mission of “Developing Leaders Through Athletics.” The Big South Conference was formed on August 21, 1983, when Charleston Southern (then Baptist College) Athletic Director Howard Bagwell and Augusta President George Christenberry began recruiting members into the Big South, receiving initial commitments from Augusta, Charleston Southern, Campbell, Coastal Carolina and Winthrop. One month later, Dr. Edward M. Singleton was selected as the League’s first Commissioner and continued to solicit new members. His efforts led to the additions of Armstrong State, Radford and UNC Asheville, giving the Big South more than the required six members to constitute an official conference. The Big South’s first year of competition was in the Fall of 1984, and in September 1986, the Big South Conference was granted full-fledged NCAA Division I status. During its infancy and prior to securing automatic bids to NCAA Championships, the Big South made early strides in earning at-large berths in several national postseason events, including volleyball, women’s basketball and women’s golf. In 1989, George F. “Buddy” Sasser replaced the retiring Dr. Singleton
78
as Commissioner, and in 1990, the League received its first automatic bid – receiving an automatic qualifier to the NCAA Baseball Championship. Under Sasser’s seven years of leadership, the Conference implemented its public relations and compliance programs, and introduced its first-ever men’s basketball television package, featuring the Big South competing among some of the finest teams in the nation. In August 1996, Kyle B. Kallander replaced Sasser as the League’s third Commissioner, and in his 13 years at the helm of the Big South, Kallander has been instrumental in aggressively promoting the Conference to new levels. The Conference has enjoyed record levels in marketing revenue during the past several years, he has brought television coverage to Big South women’s basketball, baseball and softball for the first time in Conference history, as well as increased national television exposure to the League as a whole through aggressive and unique television packages. Under Kallander’s leadership, the Big South developed and initiated its first long-range strategic plan, re-affirming the League’s vision as a distinctive athletic Conference committed to the quality of institutional life through athletic competition. He also spearheaded the efforts to add football as a championship sport, which came to fruition in 2002, and has solidified Conference membership with the additions of High Point, Gardner-Webb and Presbyterian, and in 2011-12, the return of charter member Campbell University. Kallander’s long range vision has also included technological advancements, as the Conference introduced its first live event video streaming in 2005 and has since expanded its video offerings to more than 600 events annually through a partnership with the member institutions, as well as the creation of several online and social media platforms. In the last 15 years alone, the Big South Conference has experienced monumental growth and success in nearly every sport. During this time, the Conference has had two individual National Champions, more than
200 All-Americans, has reached the “Sweet 16” in men’s soccer, women’s basketball and baseball, has received national Top 25 rankings in men’s soccer, men’s basketball, women’s basketball, baseball, men’s outdoor track & field, and men’s golf, had an individual selected to play in the NCAA Singles Championship four times in addition to the first men’s tennis doubles at-large selection, had the No. 1 ranked men’s golfer in the country, has had the nation’s top scoring men’s basketball team three consecutive years as well as the national men’s basketball scoring leader twice, received an at-large playoff berth in the Football Championship Subdivision in 2006, and had an institution finish fifth in the NCAA Men’s Golf Championships – the Conference’s highest-ever team finish in an NCAA event In 2006-07 alone, the Big South was the only Conference nationwide to have an at-large participant in the football playoffs (Coastal Carolina), a team in the Second Round of the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament (Winthrop) and a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Baseball Regionals (Coastal Carolina). In fact, Coastal Carolina’s baseball program has been a No. 1 seed three out of the last five years, while its FCS playoff berth in 2006 came in just the fifthyear of the Big South’s football existence. The Conference’s tagline, “Developing Leaders Through Athletics” was unveiled in 2008-09 in conjunction with the Conference’s 25th Anniversary. The League also honored its heritage with the Top 25 “Best of the Best” moments in League history from 1983-2008, with Liberty University’s 10-year women’s basketball championship run from 1996-2007 being crowned the No. 1 moment in the Big South’s first 25 years. The Conference’s onfield accomplishments have been duplicated in the classroom. Annually, more than 40 percent of Conference student-athletes are named to the Big South’s Presidential Honor Roll for maintaining a cumulative 3.0 grade-point average, and the League has had more than 95 Academic All-Americans in its quarter-century of existence.

RADFORD RADIO NETWORK The Radford University Basketball Radio Network The broadcasting arm of the Radford Athletic Department, the Radford Sports Network, exists to bring live game action of Radford’s sporting events. While men’s and women’s basketball are the flagship events, other events are broadcast from time-to-time, giving Highlander sports fans another way to follow their teams. Broadcasts begin with a pre-game show 30 minutes before tip-off. The pre-game show includes opponent breakdown, interviews with head coach Tajama Ngnongba and a recap of previous games. A post-game show follows the game and provides analysis of the game, coach and player interviews and previews of upcoming games.
WOMen’s Basketball Talent Patrick Reed enters his second season with the Network as the voice of Radford women’s basketball. In addition to handling play-by-play on the network, Reed also serves the university in the role of assistant director of athletic communications, the public address announcer at many of Radford’s home athletic events, and as the voice of Highlanders baseball on RadfordAthletics.com.
Patrick Reed
A native of Roanoke, Reed came to Radford from the news and sports departments of WLTX-DT in Columbia, S.C. Reed is a graduate of James Madison University’s School of Media Arts & Design. His radio resume includes play-by-play stints for Johns Hopkins University football and women’s basketball, and color analyst duties for James Madison baseball.
NetWork Talent
At the forefront of the Network is the “Voice of the Highlanders,” Rick Watson, who enters his tenth year as the play-by-play voice for all men’s basketball games. A 1991 graduate of Radford’s school of communications, Watson is also the host of “Big Dog Sports Talk,” a popular radio call-in show in the New River Valley, and is the voice of Pulaski County High School football.
Network History In 1988, Radford University became one of the first NCAA Division I schools to bring its basketball broadcasts in-house. In the process, Radford became a pioneer in college sports broadcasting, and created the foundation which helped establish the Radford Sports Network as a leader in collegiate sports broadcasting. The Network has been the starting point for several well-respected voice talents, including Wes Durham, current voice of the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets and the NFL’s Atlanta Falcons, and David Hunziker, current voice of the Oklahoma State Cowboys.
Along with regular women’s basketball and baseball duties, Reed called the all of the action for the Big South Network’s coverage of the 2009 conference softball and volleyball tournaments.
