If you enjoy the arts, you can take advantage of a rich and varied schedule of musical, dance and theatre performances, art galleries and exhibitions, lectures and readings by writers, poets and experts on every topic imaginable.

From the architecture on campus to the landscaping, The University of Alabama campus is one of the most beautiful places in the state of Alabama. The Ferguson Center was completed in 1973. Plans at the time called for the building to be constructed over Woods Hall, but it was built slightly to the north thanks to a student campaign to save the art building. The Ferguson Center Game Room located on the first floor is the perfect place to unwind, test your skill at a video game, play a friendly game of pool or ping-pong, or enter a campus tournament. With seven pool tables, video games, a ping-pong table, computer gaming and televisions, the Game Room offers a fun escape from the daily pressures of college life.

Whatever your interests, you’ll find a group, an organization, an activity or a program that will appeal to you at UA.

ALABAMA SOFTBALL
“We are extremely fortunate to have the top softball facility in the country. I have been to many places and this one tops them all. With the private suites, the shade for the fans, the state-of-the-art hitting facility and player amenities, this is a mini-major league park.� - Head Coach Patrick Murphy
2010 NFCA DIVISION I FIELD OF THE YEAR For the University of Alabama softball team, home field advantage is a fact of life. After walking through the $4.2 million stadium and clubhouse, it is easy to see how the Crimson Tide posted a 26-6 home record in 2013 and owns an overall 404-62 (.867) record while playing in the stadium. Construction on a new indoor practice facility, field house and expansion to the clubhouse began after the completion of the 2010 season. The new state-of-the-art facility, which was completed before first pitch of the 2011 season, includes a new lobby, players lounge, locker room, video room, an expanded training room and coaches offices. Additions to the already pristine complex were made during the 2009 season and helped boost the total attendance of the stadium to more than 3,000. Tier seating was added in right field along with a standingroom concourse area that includes tables and drink rails. For the 2012 season, tier seating was added in center field and two new scoreboards were implemented to accommodate the fans in the Brickyard. For pre-game and post-game treatment, the athletic training staff has a fully-equipped training room at their disposal, stocked with two training tables, an ice machine, a mini-whirlpool and a hydroculator used to hold heat packs for shoulders, arms, legs or whatever the ailment may be.
In the new clubhouse, coach Murphy and his staff can utilize a state-of-the-art video suite for team meetings and film breakdown. For the fans there are 500 chairback seats, the new tier seating in right and center field, 1,095 bleacher back seats and a large overhang that protects from inclement weather. There are two ticket booths to accommodate the rush of fans and a large concession stand sitting directly behind the press box. Two private luxury suites sit on both sides of the state-of-the-art pressbox that includes home and visitor radio booths, a television booth, a booth for the sound system, and a media room large enough to hold press conferences during tournaments. Rhoads Stadium has proven to be one of the finest places to watch softball in the nation and the attendance numbers support that claim. Alabama is the only school in the country to sell out its tickets before the season has even started and the Crimson Tide has accomplished that feat for six seasons. The previous two seasons have seen attendance top the 90,000 mark, with 91,541 fans in 2012 and 93,332 in 2013.
Rhoads Stadium
Great Moments in History FEBRUARY 23, 2000 - OPENING NIGHT With an introduction that included fireworks and a capacity crowd, the Alabama Softball Complex officially opened against instate foe UAB. The Blazers took the early lead, but behind a six-run sixth the Crimson Tide earned a 7-1 win. All-American Shelley Laird earned the first win in the new cirlce and senior Nicki McKee belted the first home run. Kelly Kretschman and Ginger Jones collected two hits apiece while Kristi Frenier went deep and drove in three runs. First pitch was at 7:04 p.m. and 1,501 fans took in a new era of Alabama softball.

MARCH 13, 2004 - DRAMATIC COMEBACK
FIELD OF PLAY
Against arguably the toughest southpaw to toe the rubber, the Complex welcomed Monica Abbott and the Tennessee Lady Volunteers. Stephanie VanBrakle delivered with her arm first, then with her bat later, as she helped Alabama post a doubleheader sweep. VanBrakle allowed three hits and struck out 11 batters en route to the win. Then with Alabama trailing, 3-1, with two on and two out in the bottom of the seventh, VanBrakle hit a walk-off home run that bounced off the top of the right field fence for the final 4-3 margin.
LOCKER ROOM
MAY 23, 2009 - DUNNE NO-HITS JSU TWICE NCAA history was made and, in doing so, it propelled Alabama to its sixth Women’s College World Series. Crimson Tide ace Kelsi Dunne threw her second no-hitter in two days at the Tuscaloosa Super Regional to help lead Alabama to a pair of 9-0 wins over Jacksonville State on ESPN. Dunne struck out seven and walked only one in each of the two contests to tie an NCAA record for consecutive no-hitters in NCAA postseason play. Seniors Kelley Montalvo and Kellie Eubanks belted home runs to provide all the offense Dunne would need.
HITTING FACILITY
MAY 27, 2011 - TIDE RALLIES TO GO TO WCWS Alabama was in search of its seventh trip to the Women’s College World Series. Hosting Stanford, the Tide’s backs were against the wall after losing the first game of the Tuscaloosa Super Regional. Facing elimination, Alabama run-ruled the Cardinal, 10-0, to start the day and then fought its way to a thrilling 1-0 win in the deciding game. A triple down the line off the bat of Cassie Reilly-Boccia brought Jackie Traina all the way home from first for the game-winning run. Traina later shut the door in the seventh inning to send the Tide to Oklahoma City.

In 2006, Owens was nearly unhittable, leading the Crimson Tide to its first ever Southeastern Conference championship. The Miami, native holds the two lowest ERAs in school history, posting a 0.88 mark in 2006 and a 1.33 ledger in 2005. Her 1.49 career ERA is the lowest in school history and her 67 wins ranks third all-time. On top of baffling teams from the start, Owens also holds the career mark at the Capstone in saves with 21.

A transfer from Baylor, Lauren Parker had no problems adjusting to her new surroundings as she immediately made an impact en route to earning first team All-America honors. Parker jumped onto the scene and hit .457, the second highest season clip in school history. Her .368 career batting average ranks fifth all-time and her .429 on-base percentage ranks eighth. Parker was also as good with her glove. The Port Neches, Texas native teamed up with fellow senior Kellie Eubanks to set an NCAA record by turning five double plays against Texas in the 2009 Tuscaloosa Regional. Known as a free-swinger, Parker was deceptively tough to strike out as she fanned 10 or fewer times in each of her three seasons at the Capstone.

One of the greatest defensive players to put on a Crimson Tide uniform and arguably the best defensive third baseman in the country during her tenure at the Capstone, Kelley Montalvo earned All-America honors in 2008. During that 2008 campaign when she helped lead Alabama to its longest stay at the Women’s College World Series, Montalvo posted career highs in batting average, hits and RBI. She ranks in the top five in the Alabama record books in slugging percentage (5th .579), on base percentage (4th .469), doubles (4th 51), runs (5th 174)and walks (4th 131). Her 52 walks in 2009 set the Alabama individual season record and ranked 10th in the country. Defensively, Montalvo garnered SEC All-Defensive Team accolades in 2008 and 2009.

Making an immediate impact in the circle, Florida native Kelsi Dunne backed up her National High School Player of the Year accolades by becoming one of the top collegiate hurlers. Dunne capped off her career by being named the Southeastern Conference Pitcher of the Year as a junior and a senior. She shattered numerous Alabama pitching records such as lowest opponent batting average (.156), most strikeouts per seven innings (9.82) and most strikeouts (1,219). Dunne was unhittable in the circle, tossing nine no-hitters, including two straight against Jacksonville State to advance the Tide to the WCWS in 2009.

Kayla Braud started her career in the same way she started many games as the team’s leadoff hitter: with a bang. Her freshman campaign proved to be one of the best in NCAA history, helping earn her SEC Freshman of the Year honors while batting a school-record .505 average. She continued to be a model of consistency, earning First Team All-America honors in two of her last three seasons. She was always a threat to get on base, owning a school-record .438 career average, and was equally as dangerous on the basepaths, accumulating 182 stolen bases over her career, which ranks second at Alabama.

A player who showed steady improvement every season, Whitney Larsen turned in a stellar senior campaign as she put together a career year en route to her first All-America selection. Larsen is regarded as one of the best captains inprogram history, leading the team to the semifinals of the 2011 Women’s College World Series. Larsen proved to be a versatile player for head coach Patrick Murphy, finding significant time in the outfield and at second base before finding a home at shortstop - a position she solidified for two seasons. Quietly, Larsen played her way into the record books. Her 196 RBI rank second all-time at the Capstone on the strength of 65 RBI as a senior, which marks the fourth-best season output in school history. She also ranks third in home runs (48), and fourth in slugging (.601).

Championships Alabama has been one of the most successful and consistent programs in the Southeastern Conference.
2012 National Champions
Alabama’s first national title came in one of the most dramatic games in Women’s College World Series history. After a three-hour rain delay prior to first pitch, Oklahoma raced out to a 3-0 lead before a second rain delay threatened to dampen any hopes of a comeback. When the rain subsided, a relaxed and renewed Crimson Tide team came out of the dugout, immediately taking the lead with four runs in the bottom of the fourth. Leading 5-3 with two outs in the bottom of the seventh, an Oklahoma home run brought the Sooners within one as USA Player of the Year Keilani Rickets came to the plate. The Tide’s ace Jackie Traina struck her out looking for the final out, bringing the Tide its first-ever national championship.

STRAIGHT TRIPS TO AN NCAA REGIONAL
The Alabama softball team has made 15 straight appearances in NCAA postseason play. The streak started in 1999 under firstyear head coach Patrick Murphy. Every season since his first at the helm of the Crimson Tide, Alabama has been a mainstay in the NCAAs. The 15-year streak includes eight Women’s College World Series appearances and hosting 14 NCAA regionals in Tuscaloosa. The Crimson Tide has hosted a regional every season since 2005 and has advanced to the WCWS six times. Postseason play has been kind to Alabama in Tuscaloosa, as the Tide have advanced to the next round all but twice and have moved on 11 straight times to the Super Regional round.
WOMEN’S COLLEGE WORLD SERIES BERTHS
Alabama has advanced to the Women’s College World Series eight times in its 17 years of playing softball, including four of the past six seasons. Alabama’s eight appearances have all come since 2000 and they have won at least one game at Hall of Fame Stadium six times. The 2012 Crimson Tide became the first team in Southeastern Conference softball history to win a national championship. Nine different players have been selected to the WCWS All-Tournament team, including 2012 Most Outstanding Player Jackie Traina. All-American Kelly Kretschman was the first, earning the honor in 2000. Charlotte Morgan earned the honor in back-to-back seasons (2008-09) and was joined in 2009 by Brittany Rogers and Kelley Montalvo. Whitney Larsen finished off her career with a selection in 2011. The 2012 honorees included Traina, Kayla Braud, Jennifer Fenton and Amanda Locke.
WESTERN DIVISION CHAMPIONSHIPS
The Crimson Tide has held a stranglehold on the Southeastern Conference western division. Alabama has won the SEC west eight times, including five of the last six seasons. The Crimson Tide has won 20 or more games in conference play on 11 different occasions, including 11 of the past 14 seasons. Alabama has won a school record 25 conference games in three different seasons, reaching the quarter-century mark in 2000, 2006 and 2008. The first division title came in 2003, when Alabama went 22-8 in the conference season. Alabama then won 23 games en route to its second title in 2005 and 25 in 2006. The Tide then claimed fivestraight titles with 25 SEC wins in 2008, 21 in 2009, 23 in 2010, 19 in 2011 and 23 in 2012.
SOUTHEASTERN CONFERENCE TITLES
Alabama has won nine different Southeastern Conference titles, earning the regular season trophy outright in 2006, 2010, 2011 and 2012 and five SEC Tournament titles in 1998, 2003, 2005, 2010 and 2012. In its second season of existence, Alabama claimed the tournament title in 1998, beating No. 12 LSU twice and earning a ninth-inning victory over Mississippi State. The Tide swept its way to the title and then beat No. 13 Tennessee and No. 8 Georgia to win the tournament in 2005. The Crimson Tide won the regular season title in 2006 on the strength of a 25-4 record. The Tide swept its way through the 2010 campaign by claiming both the regular season and tournament titles. In 2011, the Tide claimed its second straight regular season title, outscoring Mississippi 36-2 in the final weekend to claim the trophy. Alabama once again won both titles in 2012, marking three-straight regular season championships.

In only its fourth season of existence, the Alabama softball team made its inaugural trip to the Women’s College World Series and has not looked back. Only two other teams have appeared in more WCWS than the Crimson Tide since 2000. Alabama has made eight trips and four in the past six years, culminating with its first national title in 2012. Alabama has been a staple at ASA Hall of Fame Stadium from the South, leading all SEC teams in appearances. The Crimson Tide has produced 10 WCWS All-Tournament Team selections, including 2012 Most Outstanding Player Jackie Traina. From pinch-hit grand slams to downing perennial powerhouses and dancing in the rain, the Crimson Tide has made a lasting impression in Oklahoma City.

“THE FIRST TRIP” In only the fourth year of the program’s history and the second under head coach Patrick Murphy, the Crimson Tide welcomed in the new millennium with their first appearance in the Women’s College World Series. The young 2000 squad went 1-2 in Oklahoma City with a 6-4 victory over DePaul. Tide junior Kelly Kretschman was named to the WCWS AllTournament team after a three RBI performance in the DePaul game. It was the only World Series appearance for the future Team USA gold medalist, but was only the start of what would become one of the most impressive runs of the decade.

In 2003 the Crimson Tide found themselves back in Oklahoma City for the second time in school history. The SEC Tournament champions, who swept through the NCAA Regionals, ran into a wall in Oklahoma City being one of the first teams sent home after two straight defeats. The offense of Arizona and Oklahoma proved to be too much for future All-American Stephanie VanBrakle, as the right-handed hurler took the loss in both games. After an eight-inning fight with Oklahoma, the Sooners scored three runs in the top of the ninth to take down Alabama in the first elimination game of the tournament.

The Tide accomplished the feat in its eighth trip to the WCWS. Behind WCWS MVP Jackie Traina and the potent Alabama bats, the Tide sailed to its first ever championship series appearance. Against an Oklahoma team that featured the national player of the year in Keilani Ricketts, the Sooners took game one, but the Tide rallied to seize the next two victories. The championship game was one for the ages, as Alabama trailed, 3-0 early. But a light rain opened the flood gates for the Tide and the comeback was complete, with Ricketts going down on strikes for the last out.

2013 | ANDREA HAWKINS AND HAYLIE MCCLENEY
Starting in right field for Team USA, Kretschman was the only batter, for any country, to hit for the cycle – hitting at least one single, double, triple and home run – over the course of the Olympics. Her .333 batting average was eighth best in the summer games and her .714 slugging percentage ranked third among all hitters at the 2004 Olympic games. In 2008 she earned silver at the Beijing Olympics, batting .348 with a home run and six RBI.
KELLY KRETSCHMAN JAPAN CUP / WORLD CUP / CANADA CUP

In today’s world of collegiate athletics, few can claim to have been at a program since the beginning. Not many can say they were there at the origin of a program, having been present from the very inception to where it stands today. And certainly nobody can claim to have brought a program further, and in shorter time, than Crimson Tide head softball coach Patrick Murphy, entering his 16th season as the program’s leader in 2014. From a humble start to a national championship, Murphy has taken Alabama to the top of the college softball world. Beginning with his days as an assistant in the very first years of the Alabama softball program, Murphy has emerged as the face of a team that has grown under his leadership to become one of the most consistently successful programs in the nation. The accomplishments are there for everyone to see. A 2012 National Championship, eight Women’s College World Series berths, four SEC titles and 15 straight NCAA Tournament bids are only a few of the team honors that Murphy has brought to Tuscaloosa during his tenure. The individual honors are equally as impressive. Tide players have earned All-America honors 89 times under Murphy’s watch. He has tutored 81 All-SEC performers and 73 NFCA All-Region honorees. His teams have been just as successful in the classroom, with 14 CoSIDA Academic AllAmericans and 157 SEC All-Academic selections. Even more impressively, Murphy has led the program to a surge of popularity among Tide fans. Alabama has become a regular atop the nation’s attendance standings, with an evergrowing group of loyal fans who fill the stands at Rhoads Stadium throughout the season. The 2008 campaign was a sellout, setting a new benchmark in season tickets sold with more than 1,200 allocated to loyal fans. During the 2009 season, Alabama broke the single-season attendance record formerly held by Fresno State. Then, in 2010, a record total of 80,690 fans were part of the atmosphere in Tuscaloosa followed by 68,110 that took in the Tide in 2011. The previous two seasons have seen attendance top the 90,000 mark, with 91,541 fans in 2012 and 93,332 in 2013. Every coach in the nation would do anything to achieve those numbers, which stand as a tribute to what Murphy and his teams have achieved while illustrating the willingness of Tide fans to support a program that does things right, both on and off the field. Murphy has turned his program into an absolute model of consistency, having guided Alabama to its first national title, 15 consecutive NCAA tournaments, and appearances in eight Women’s College World Series (2000, 2003, 2005, 2006, 2008, 2009, 2011, 2012). The 2013 season was yet another successful season at the Capstone, with the Tide making

its 15th straight NCAA regional appearance. The year was particularly special for Murphy, as he opened the season with a return trip to his alma mater, Northern Iowa, for the UNI-Dome Classic and ended the year being inducted into the NFCA Hall of Fame. Murphy also earned his 800th win during the season with an 8-0 win over Auburn on March 22, 2013. A magical 2012 season for the Tide culminated in defeating Oklahoma for the NCAA Championship. Alabama finished 60-8 and claimed its third straight SEC regular-season championship. The Tide also won the SEC Tournament, becoming the first team ever to host the highly competitive tournament and come out champions. The NFCA ultimately named the Alabama coaches the 2012 National Coaching Staff of the Year. The 2011 Tide won the first two games in the WCWS for the first time in program history. Alabama finished 53-11, marking the seventh straight season Murphy had guided the Tide to 50 or more wins. Alabama secured its second straight SEC regular-season title, finishing 19-6 in the league. Individually, four Tide players earned 2011 NFCA All-America honors. Kelsi Dunne, on the strength of earning her second straight SEC Pitcher of the Year accolade, was named to the NFCA first team and was joined by Kayla Braud and freshman Jackie Traina. Whitney Larsen was named to the second team. Dunne, Braud and Larsen also garnered All-SEC honors and were joined by Amanda Locke as all-conference performers. Kaila Hunt was named to the SEC All-Freshmen team while Dunne, Kendall Dawson and Jazlyn Lunceford were tabbed to the SEC All-Defensive Team. Once again, Murphy and his staff were named the NFCA South Region Coaching Staff of the Year. Murphy eclipsed the 650-win mark in 2010 en route to leading the Crimson Tide to SEC regular-season and tournament championships. The Alabama coaching staff once again was named the NFCA South Region Coaching Staff of the Year. Alabama finished with a 52-11 record and a 23-4 conference mark, en route to earning the number one overall seed in the NCAA tournament. Individually, Charlotte Morgan was named the 2010 SEC Player of the Year, Dunne was awarded SEC Pitcher of the Year, Braud was tabbed the SEC Freshman of the Year and Murphy earned SEC Coach of the Year honors. Morgan, Dunne and Braud all earned NFCA All-America accolades. The previous season, Murphy and his staff were named the 2009 NFCA South Region Coaching Staff of the Year after leading Alabama to a 54-11 overall record. The Tide matched its longest run in the WCWS at the time by finishing with a 2-2 mark in Oklahoma City. Alabama led the nation with three players earning 2009 Louisville Slugger

Head Coach Patrick Murphy hoists the national championship trophy to the Bama faithful at Hall of Fame Stadium in Oklahoma City.
All-America honors from the National Fastpitch Coaches Association. The first-team selections included Dunne and Morgan while Brittany Rogers garnered second-team honors. Since taking over prior to the 1999 season, Murphy has compiled a winning record in all 15 seasons. He has won 45 or more games in each of the past 14 years, with a program-best 66 victories in 2000. Murphy also has won 20-plus games in conference play in 11 of his 15 seasons in the SEC. The 2008 campaign marked the third time he had posted 25 conference victories, matching the win totals from the 2006 and 2000 seasons. Murphy’s ability to build and maintain the impressive level of consistency places him among the nation’s elite. He has a career mark of 817233 (.778) in 16 seasons, including one year at Northwest Missouri State. Murphy has been just as successful in the always competitive SEC with a 323-112 (.743) record in league play. It is Murphy’s desire for perfection that has guided the Tide to the upper echelon of the softball world. His hard-nosed work ethic has led the program to as high as No. 1 in the national rankings, reached for the first time in program history during the 2007 season and continued through every ensuing season. The Tide has finished in the top 10 in the final polls each of the past eight campaigns. The 2010 squad earned the number one overall seed in the NCAA tournament after finishing the season on a 21-game winning streak, a run that saw the the Tide capture both the SEC regular-season and tournament titles. Entering his 22nd season as a collegiate coach, Murphy officially acquired the title of Alabama’s head coach on July 12, 1998. He spent the previous two years as an assistant coach on the Crimson Tide coaching staff. In his first season as the head coach, Murphy took the team to its first NCAA Tournament en route to a 39-26 final record. The Tide lost to No. 1 UCLA and No. 23 Missouri in the Los Angeles Regional. In his second season, Murphy took the program to the next step, leading Alabama to its first-ever Women’s College World Series berth after the best regular season in school history. That 2000 team won a school-record 66 games (66-14) and 25 SEC games (25-5). They finished in the top 10 for the first time in school history, after earning a 6-4 victory over DePaul for the school’s first win in the WCWS.
Alabama continued its success in 2001 when it hosted an NCAA regional for the first time. The Tide ended that season ranked No. 10 with a 50-11 record and 24-6 SEC mark. In 2002, they went 46-21 (22-8 SEC) and again advanced to the NCAA Tournament. Murphy took the Tide back to the Women’s College World Series in 2003, after winning his first SEC Championship as a head coach. The 2003 team swept the NCAA Region 8 tournament to advance to the WCWS, where they lost two close games, 3-2, to No. 1 Arizona and 6-3 (9) to No. 4 Oklahoma. Alabama finished No. 7 in 2003, with a 49-21 record (22-8 SEC). The 2004 team posted a 45-20 mark but had to travel to No. 4 UCLA in the NCAA Regional round and lost twice to the Bruins. But 12 months later, the Tide were back at the Women’s College World Series. The 2005 squad totaled the secondmost wins in program history with a 63-15 record and 23-7 SEC ledger. They won the school’s third SEC Tournament championship with a 2-0 victory over Georgia and swept the NCAA Region 12 tournament to earn the right to travel to College Station for a two-game sweep over No. 5 Texas A&M in the new Super Regional round. In the WCWS, the Tide earned a 12-inning, 2-1, victory over DePaul before they were eliminated with a 4-0 loss to Tennessee. One could almost say that Murphy was born to be around the game of baseball. In the third grade, the Fayette, Iowa, native put on his first baseball glove and took to the little league fields. Five years later, fresh out of the eighth grade, he made Fayette High School’s varsity baseball squad and played the next five years for five different coaches. “I always knew I wanted to be a coach,” Murphy says. “My high school was such a small school that I got to play varsity baseball in eighth grade. Every year it was something different I learned, either good or bad, from each coach. My senior year, I tried to put everything together I had learned from all the different coaches and came up with a good collaborative plan.” After hanging up his spikes on his prep career, Murphy made the trip to the campus of the University of Northern Iowa where he spent the next four years. Murphy took his first job doing what he always had wanted to do, but on a smaller scale, when he became a little league head coach. Three years after taking that job, he graduated from Northern Iowa with a bachelor’s degree in history education.
Even with his youngest players on that team being close to his own age at the time, Murphy concedes that his first job as a head coach was where he learned the most about himself and the game. “Those kids were baseball nuts,” he says. “They played baseball on the town tennis court because that was the only place in town that had lights. The lights would go off automatically at midnight, so that is when they knew they had to go home. They taught me so many things about the game of baseball. They played because they loved it so much.” It took only two years for Murphy to become a success as a head coach. After leading the Sumner High School boys to a 22-3 record in his first year as head coach, he guided the Aces to the state championship game the next season. Following a short stay at Sumner, Murphy continued his education as a graduate student at the University of Southwestern Louisiana (now known as Louisiana-Lafayette). While at USL, he broke into the collegiate coaching ranks as an assistant softball coach while finishing his master’s degree in communications in 1992. “The head coach at USL knew I had coached baseball in Iowa and she told me about the job,” Murphy remembers. “It only paid six thousand dollars, but I was in grad school there and she asked me if I wanted another duty. That’s where it all started and I just got hooked.” Prospering with the Ragin’ Cajuns through a five-year record (1990-94) of 239-46 – including a trip to the 1993 Women’s College World Series on the shoulders of former player and current Alabama associate head coach Alyson Habetz – Murphy moonlighted as head coach of the Independence Iowa high school baseball team from 1992-95. Due to the high recognition of his duties as an assistant coach at USL, along with the solid success of his duties as a high school coach, Murphy was hired as interim head coach at Northwest Missouri State in 1995. Although he was officially hired only three weeks before spring practice in 1995, Murphy led the Bearcats to a 28-20 record. Murphy has proven himself to be a leader capable of recruiting and developing talented players who perform on the field and in the classroom. Combining that with the lure of athletic tradition at Alabama and the nation’s finest facilities, the Tide softball team remains among the best in the nation.

COACHES/STAFF
If Patrick Murphy has been the face of the Alabama softball program throughout its entirety, Alyson Habetz certainly has played a huge role of her own in developing the Tide into one of the nation’s elite. Entering her 16th season on Murphy’s staff in 2014, Habetz earned a promotion of her own when Murphy named her associate head coach in the summer of 2007. Habetz brings a wealth of softball and baseball knowledge to the Crimson Tide softball staff. She joined on Sept. 21, 1998, in the program’s second year. During her tenure, Habetz has helped Murphy lead the Tide to eight College World Series appearances, its first national championship and four SEC titles, including three in a row. Habetz’s primary duties include outfield play and team offense. She also contributes significantly to the evaluation of recruits. “Alyson is a great role model for our players and future recruits,” Murphy says. “She is one of the most outstanding people I have met. She was a dream to coach and she is even better to coach with. I think she’s the best assistant coach in the country. She has turned down several head coaching jobs already and she keeps getting better and better each year.” Habetz began her stint at Alabama following a four-year career in women’s professional baseball. She joined the pitching rotation with the Colorado Silver Bullets women’s professional baseball team in 1995 following her collegiate playing career. Habetz played with the Silver Bullets for three years before joining the Long Beach Aces of the now defunct women’s professional baseball league, as a first baseman and pitcher in 1998. After her first season with the Silver Bullets, Habetz made the trip to Cooperstown, N.Y., for the opening of a section in the National Baseball Hall of Fame recognizing the Colorado Silver Bullets team. Her good friend and favorite sports hero Tommy Lasorda was on hand for the ceremony. After spending two years fighting the issue in the state courts, Habetz became the first female in the state of Louisiana to play high school baseball, garnering all-district honors as a first baseman and pitcher at Notre Dame High

School (in Crowley, La.) while earning all-state honors as a basketball player. Habetz also excelled in the classroom, representing the NDHS class of 1990 as its salutatorian before earning an academic scholarship to the University of Southwestern Louisiana (now the University of Louisiana at Lafayette), where she had earned a basketball scholarship. While displaying her talents as a basketball player at USL, Habetz was a member of the softball team, earning third team All-America, All-South Region, All-Louisiana and Academic All-America honors with the Ragin’ Cajuns. While at USL, she played for a staff that included Murphy, who was an assistant coach in Lafayette. Habetz helped lead the Cajuns to an appearance in the 1993 Women’s College World Series. As a member of the basketball team, Habetz etched her name in the record books, settling in at No. 7 all-time on the career scoring list en route to earning membership in the 1,000-point club. She graduated with a bachelor’s degree in communications in 1995. Habetz was a 2006 inductee into the Louisiana High School Coaches Association Hall of Fame. She also is enshrined in the University of Louisiana at Lafayette’s Sports Hall of Fame, where she was inducted in 2003.

Assistant Coach Stephanie VanBrakle
STEPHANIE VANBRAKLE Assistant Coach
3rd Year
Stephanie VanBrakle enters her third season at the University of Alabama as the team’s pitching coach in 2014. In her first season guiding the Alabama pitching staff, Stephanie VanBrakle helped lead the Crimson Tide win the program’s first national championship. Behind the right arm of Jackie Traina, the 2012 team rolled through the postseason, winning the Southeastern Conference regular-season title for the third straight year and then claiming the SEC Tournament title before advancing through the NCAA Regional and Super Regional rounds and finally capturing the coveted national championship. VanBrakle was instrumental in the development of Traina. In her first season as the ace of the staff, Traina was named an NFCA first team All-American and the SEC Pitcher of the Year. Traina led the nation with a school record 42 wins and struck out 361 batters, another Tide all-time best. The following season in 2013, Traina again earned NFCA and Easton All-America honors. VanBrakle was named Alabama’s pitching coach on July 5, 2011, returning to Tuscaloosa after spending one season as the head coach at Samford. “We are very excited to have Stephanie as our first former athlete to join the coaching staff,” said Tide head coach Patrick Murphy after hiring VanBrakle. “She led us to new heights as a player and know she can do the same thing as a coach.” Prior to serving as Samford’s head coach, VanBrakle spent the previous two years as the head coach at Birmingham-Southern College. She posted a record of 57-14 in her two seasons with the Panthers, for an impressive .803 winning percentage. In her first season as a head coach in 2009, VanBrakle led the Panthers to a 32-5 record. The team broke 13 program records, including the mark for wins in a season. Her first team posted a .364 team batting average and 1.19 ERA. VanBrakle’s 2010 team then finished with a record of 25-9 overall and 12-4 in the Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference. Prior to becoming head coach at Birmingham-Southern, VanBrakle spent the
2008 season as an assistant coach on the BSC staff. That season, the Panthers earned a 32-28 record for the first 30-win season in program history. She also helped coach four All-Big South Conference players and two CoSIDA Academic All-District honorees. VanBrakle played professionally in the National Pro Fastpitch (NPF) league for the Philadelphia Force prior to being hired at Birmingham-Southern. She also served as a 2007 student assistant coach at her alma mater, with the Tide going 55-10 during that season. During her stellar career at Alabama from 2003 to 2006, VanBrakle helped the Crimson Tide win its first Southeastern Conference regular-season title in 2006 plus SEC Tournament championships in 2003 and 2005. She earned SEC Tournament MVP honors in 2005 and was named SEC Pitcher of the Year in 2006. VanBrakle helped her team make NCAA Regional and Super Regional appearances during all four of her years at Alabama, as well as three NCAA College World Series appearances (2003, 2005, 2006). A native of Chambersburg, Pa., VanBrakle was named a NFCA second team All-American in 2005 and 2006. She was named SEC Pitcher of the Year and was one of 10 finalists for the Collegiate Player of the Year as a senior in 2006. She also was named to the SEC Honor Roll and the Academic All-SEC Team all four of her years at Alabama.
VanBrakle’s other playing honors included 2003 Region VIII Tournament MVP, NFCA AllSouth Region in 2003, 2005 and 2006, and NFCA All-American in 2005 and 2006. She also earned all-conference honors each of her four years at Alabama and was named the 2003 SEC Freshman of the Year. VanBrakle earned a Bachelor of Science degree in physical education from Alabama in 2007.

ADAM ARBOUR Volunteer Assistant
3rd Year
MICHIGAN, 2011
COACHES/STAFF
Alabama head softball coach Patrick Murphy named Adam Arbour a volunteer assistant coach, starting in the 2012 season. Arbour – entering his third season with the Tide in 2014 – came to the program from the University of Michigan, where he played on the Wolverine baseball team and was a manager for the softball team. In his first season at the Capstone, Arbour helped the Crimson Tide win the first national championship in program history. Arbour worked directly with the Tide catchers in 2012, helping senior Kendall Dawson earn SEC AllDefensive Team honors and break the school record for throwing out would-be base stealers. “We are very fortunate to have Adam on our staff,” Murphy says. “We respect coach Carol Hutchins and her staff at Michigan very much and try to emulate their program in many ways. We all look forward to working further with Adam.” Arbour, an Ann Arbor native, was a threeyear member of the Michigan baseball team (2007-09). Over that span the Wolverines won
32 ALABAMA SOFTBALL
two Big Ten championships (2007-08) and an NCAA regional title in 2007. “Coach Murphy has established an amazing softball culture here in Tuscaloosa and I am very thankful that he asked me to jump on board,” says Arbour. “Coach Murphy, Alyson Habetz, and Stephanie VanBrakle are some of the best minds in the game and I look forward to continue learning from them and adding value to this program.” Arbour’s softball experience comes from his time serving as a student manager for three seasons. Over that span, the Wolverines won three Big Ten titles, two NCAA regional championships and made an appearance at the 2009 Women’s College World Series. Arbour graduated from Michigan in 2011 with a bacherlor’s degree in physical education. He previously coached ASA-level teams from 16 and under up to gold level. Arbour comes from athletic family that includes parents Ed (baseball) and Julie (volleyball) who were student-athletes at Eastern Michigan. His father also played baseball at Washtenaw Community College while an uncle, Dan, played football at Western Michigan.
KATE HARRIS Director of Operations
4th Year
CREIGHTON, 2007
Kate Harris enters her third season as the Alabama softball program’s director of operations in 2014. “We are very excited to have Kate Harris on our staff,” Head Coach Patrick Murphy says. “I have always said the best quote to live by is to surround yourself with good people and good things will happen. Kate is a great person who came highly recommended.” Harris joined the Crimson Tide staff after serving as an assistant softball coach at her alma mater, Creighton. For two seasons, the Waterloo, Iowa, native worked with the outfielders, in addition to her role with Bluejay softball camps. In her two seasons at Creighton, she helped guide the Bluejays to back-to-back Missouri Valley Conference regular-season championships and two NCAA regional appearances. Harris was a Bluejay outfielder from 200407, appearing in 122 games. She was a member of three NCAA Tournament teams, helping the Jays win the MVC tournament in 2004, 2005 and 2007. Creighton also won the 2007 MVC regular-season championship with Harris as a senior leader. During her senior season, Harris led the Bluejays with nine stolen bases. She received Creighton softball’s Most Inspirational Award following her sophomore, junior and senior seasons. Before returning to Creighton, Harris taught at Millard West High School in Omaha, Neb., while also coaching softball and basketball at Millard West. Harris’ grandfather Tom Lind played basketball at the University of Iowa while her sister Molly played softball on the 1999 DePaul team that reached the Women’s College World Series. She graduated from Creighton in 2007, with a bachelor’s degree in sociology.

Player Profiles 2014 SEASON PREVIEW
Junior pitcher Leslie Jury
PITCHERS AND CATCHERS The Tide pitching staff in 2014 will consist of senior Jackie Traina, junior Leslie Jury and freshman Sydney Littlejohn. The 2013 fall season showed off a versatile staff that should frustrate opposing hitters in 2014. “Jackie looked better after taking the whole summer off,” says Murphy. “Leslie was a lot better and was considerably more confident than last year. Sydney was probably the biggest surprise. You never know what you’re going to get with a freshman pitcher and she played really well in a couple games. She was very composed. The three together are going to make a great staff.” The dynamics between the three pitchers should allow the Tide to keep opponents offbalance, with each owning a unique skill set. “This fall we had a couple scrimmages where we started Sydney for four or five innings and then we brought in Jackie,” recalls Murphy. “It’s like starting with Greg Maddux and closing with Randy Johnson. It was a really good combination, because Sydney is totally different than Jackie or Leslie. During a couple scrimmages, the team said they thought Leslie was throwing harder than Jackie, which is a great thing to have. Both hit 70 miles-per-hour on the gun this fall and it’s a rarity to have even one pitcher do that on a team, much less two.” Behind the plate, the Tide will have a veteran platoon to work with including seniors Molly Fichtner and Jordan Patterson as well as junior Chaunsey Bell. All three played in 2013, with Fichter starting the most games, but each is capable defensively while their offensive production likely will determine who gets to play at any given time. “We have two senior catchers, which is a rarity, plus a junior so we have a very veteran catching staff,” says Murphy. “All three of them bring something different to the table. It’s going to be fun to see how that plays out because all three of them have an opportunity to play. It probably will come down to who’s the most consistent hitter and who’s throwing people out. “Near the end of last year, Molly threw out the last eight kids that tried to run against her so that was a huge improvement from the beginning of the year. All three catchers are very capable and all of our pitchers are comfortable with each of them.” INFIELD Versatility will be the name of the game for the Tide infield in 2014. Depth and flexibility will allow the coaching staff to shuffle players between multiple positions, giving the hottest bats at the time a chance to play wherever they’re needed. “I love the flexibility because we’re two deep at every infield position,” notes Murphy. “Wherever the pieces of the puzzle fit best, that’s what we’re going to do. Some players may not think they’ll play a certain position, but we want the best nine hitters in our lineup so we’re going to do whatever we can to make that happen.” At first base, it again will be a battle between junior Jadyn Spencer and sophomore Leona Lafaele. Spencer, who owns a .316 career batting average, looks poised to remain a key offensive weapon after a good 2013 fall season. “Jadyn was probably our most consistent hitter in the fall,” says Murphy. “She and Leona both had great fall seasons and it might come down to a situation where we have to somehow get both of them in the lineup. Jadyn could play in the outfield if we need her to, as she played there a little as a freshman. She’s a fast kid and she can run.” The middle infield is led by two-time AllAmerican Kaila Hunt, the 2013 team leader in home runs (15) and RBI (60). A group of capable
Senior infielder Ryan Iamurri
players – including Hunt’s fellow senior Ryan Iamurri, junior Danae Hays and freshmen Marisa Runyon and Peyton Grantham – all will battle for playing time, with the difference again likely coming down to offensive production. “Either of those positions could come down to who has the hottest bat,” says Murphy. “We could run it like a lot of Major League baseball teams do and give the best hitter three at-bats and then bring in a defensive replacement, because we have that much depth.” Junior Danielle Richard started 33 games at third base in 2013, and she will anchor the hot corner along with freshmen Grantham and Runyon. With so many capable hitters and only three infield spots to fill, Murphy knows it wouldn’t even be out of the question to possibly shuffle the infield’s All-American to third. “If it had to come down to it, Hunt could play third too,” says Murphy. “Kaila probably is one of the best third basemen in the country but she just hasn’t played there for us. She played there a lot in summer ball.”
PROFILES
With such a rich history in only 17 years as a program, the list of accomplishments left to tackle for Alabama softball grows smaller each year. The 2013 season, however, was a major first for the program: defending a national championship. Looking objectively, 2013 was another successful season for the Tide. Alabama boasted four All-Americans, three All-SEC honorees and earned a 15th straight appearance in the NCAA Tournament. But, in the end, an early exit from the SEC Tournament and defeat at the hands of Tennessee in the Knoxville Super Regional prevented a proper title defense. “We had so many new people in major positions last year,” says Patrick Murphy, who enters his 16th season as Alabama’s head coach in 2014. “I’m not sure everyone realized, but in certain situations they had to be the person who delivered when we needed it. I think it took them a while to get used to that.” Murphy cited Danielle Richard’s walk-off triple in the 2013 SEC Tournament against Texas A&M as an example of responding to adversity, albeit a few games late. “We had many games where we had opportunities like that to win in the bottom of the seventh and that was the first time all year that we did it,” explains Murphy. ”When Texas A&M went ahead in the top of the seventh, we said that this is just another opportunity for us to show we can do this. It doesn’t matter if it’s the 58th game of the season or the first. So they did it.” After a whirlwind year that included throwing 289 innings in a championship sophomore season and spending the 2012 summer with the U.S. Junior National Team, the Tide’s ace pitcher Jackie Traina was slowed by a nagging arm injury that forced her out of the lineup late in her junior season. “Jackie’s situation with her throwing arm hurt us, especially when we had to take her out of the lineup,” says Murphy. “Losing your four or fivehole hitter always hurts, so it was hard not having her bat over that last month.” Looking ahead to 2014, Murphy believes the lessons learned and hardships of 2013 will pay dividends to this year’s squad, which is well balanced with five seniors, five juniors, four sophomores and four freshmen. “The experience that a lot of players gained in 2013 will help moving forward,” adds Murphy. “This year, when all eyes are on them to perform, it won’t be as daunting of a spot. They should have a little more fun this year than last year, where they were more nervous than I thought they would be.”
OUTFIELD Under the guidance of associate head coach Alyson Habetz, Alabama consistently has fielded one of the most talented outfields in the country. While the team lost a big presence in graduated left fielder Kayla Braud, a productive fall season out of sophomore Kallie Case and freshman Chandler Dare showed they are more than capable of filling the big shoes left behind. “In left field, we’ll have Kallie, Chandler and possibly Jadyn Spencer,” says Murphy. “Kallie had a really good fall in left field and she can even play infield if we need to fit her in somewhere. She has great speed, great instincts and isn’t afraid to dive. Kallie and Chandler are very similar. They both throw right and bat left, they have pop and they have speed – so that will be another good battle.” The other outfield positions are fairly established, highlighted by the return of sophomore All-American Haylie McCleney and sophomore Andrea Hawkins, an Easton AllAmerican and SEC All-Freshman honoree. Both earned valuable experience in the summer with the U.S. Junior National Team. “Haylie has basically established herself as one of the best outfielders in the country,” observes Murphy. “Hopefully she’ll carry on that tradition at Alabama in center field. Andrea, Jadyn and Kallie all could be possibilities in right. Andrea is going to be a very good offensive player for us. The more at-bats she gets, the better she’s going to be. Andrea and Haylie really benefited from the Team USA experience and are ready to get going.”
