LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT We welcome you to another season of Hillcat baseball, which promises to build upon the excellence we've seen in previous years.

The development of our athletic programs mirrors the exciting changes that have occurred throughout the university with a distinguished list of recent milestones that includes: • Developing as Oklahoma’s fastest growing regional university during the past decade while still maintaining the personalized academic attention that’s become the university's hallmark; • Adding new academic programs to meet the needs of Oklahoma’s business and industry, including our first master’s degree program starting in fall 2014; • Constructing two student apartment communities and a dining hall (to open in fall 2014) that serve the Tulsa metropolitan area’s only residential, public university; • Expanding and remodeling academic facilities to provide students with up-to-date academic resources; and • Developing strong ties with the communities we serve in order to fulfill our mission of education and service.

RSU’s rapid growth also extends to our intercollegiate athletics, which are a relatively new addition after being reintroduced to campus in 2005. In only a few short years, our Hillcat teams have become a vital component of the university’s DNA providing an infectious campus spirit and a strong connection to the community. The university and our students have invested in athletic facilities, including the new baseball/softball complex, Bushyhead Fieldhouse renovations, expansion and turf installation at Soldier Field and construction of soccer and cross country facilities on campus.

We appreciate our entire student body for their support of these campus initiatives, including the student fees that funded the recently completed $4 million renovations of the soccer facilities and baseball/softball complex. Their support signals a strong vote of confidence in our athletic programs, but also represents their investment in the quality of life at Rogers State.

The Hillcats are continuing our affilation with the Heartland Conference in the NCAA Division II. We have appreciated the high priority these two organizations have placed on promoting healthy values, developing strong character traits, and encouraging academic achievement among all student-athletes. These are core values for RSU’s programs, and we work daily to impress them upon our student-athletes. We appreciate your interest in RSU athletics, and we look forward to another great season on the diamond.

Dr. Larry Rice

President Rogers State University

u Rogers State University became an accredited four-year university in 2000.

LETTER FROM THE DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS Greetings from the Hill and welcome to the ninth edition of Hillcat Baseball.

The RSU Athletic Department embarks on a new chapter during the 2014 campaign as the Hillcats enter the Heartland Conference and the NCAA Division II membership process. The Hillcat Baseball team has enjoyed tremendous success since their inaugural season. With back-to-back World Series appearances, the Hillcats have gained national recognition in recent years and are now regarded as one of the premiere programs in small college baseball.

There is no better time to be involved in Hillcat Athletics as we look to continue to improve upon the triumphs that have helped make Rogers State Hillcats a household name. The Hillcat Baseball team has built a solid foundation for the program while also emphasizing the important of academic success.

We appreciate your interest in our fledging athletic programs and hope you will join us at the Diamond Sports Complex ballpark on a regular basis this spring.

We are thankful to have the opportunity to showcase this first-class facility and look forward to hosting state, regional, and national events for many years to come.

The outpouring of community support we have received has played a huge role in our early success and will remain vital to Hillcat Athletics as we strive to raise the bar once again in 2014 and beyond.

Thank you for all you do in support of the Hillcats!

ABOUT RSU

u RSU offers a wide variety of bachelor’s and associate degrees.

Rogers State University: A Great Oklahoma Higher Education Success Story

Rogers State University holds a historic position in the annals of Oklahoma higher education.

Since RSU was accredited as a four-year university in 2000, enrollment has increased by more than 60 percent, earning RSU the title of Oklahoma's fastest-growing regional university.

A dynamic, progressive university with nearly 4,300 students, RSU is widely recognized for its high-quality academic programs, distance learning options and high-technology learning environment. RSU is the only public, four-year, residential university in the Tulsa metropolitan area.

RSU offers a wide variety of bachelor's and associate degrees. Innovative new bachelor's degrees include applied technology, environmental conservation, military history, sport management and game development. In fall 2014, the university will begin its first graduate degree program, a master’s of business administration.

Many students from northeast Oklahoma who plan to attend medical school complete their undergraduate studies through RSU's program in medical/molecular biology. And RSU enjoys a statewide reputation for academic excellence in its nursing program.

Distinguished Academic Achievements

RSU received continued accreditation from the Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools without further required evaluation for 10 years - a rarity in higher education in Oklahoma and a major accomplishment achieved by few universities. This is truly a testament to the high academic quality of RSU. RSU participates in The Washington Center Internship Program, a nationally recognized program placing students with private, public, and nonprofit organizations in Washington, D.C. Students participating in the semester-long internship earn college credit while they gain "real world" experience within their field of interest and interact with influential leaders and policymakers. RSU is one of only three universities in Oklahoma to participate in this prestigious program.

ABOUT RSU Most RSU faculty members hold doctoral degrees, or the highest degrees available in their fields, from esteemed institutions across the nation, including Princeton University, Duke University and the University of Oklahoma.

A major expansion and renovation of Baird Hall on the Claremore campus was completed in 2010. The new Baird Hall has doubled in size and contains many of the leadingedge features associated with higher learning today, including classrooms equipped with Smart Boards, a performance studio, an art gallery and an outdoor classroom for learning outdoors on sunny days.

The university’s Honors Program provides an atmosphere where scholars can challenge themselves academically to maximize their college experience through specialized courses, student/faculty joint research projects, and a strong emphasis on service learning in the community.

RSU opened a new student apartment community in September 2011 that doubles the number of students living on the main campus in Claremore. The $11.5 million project accommodates up to 255 students in a three-level facility, located across the street from the present university apartments. The new 87,118-square-foot complex is located just west of Soldier Field. A new student dining hall will open on campus in fall 2014.

The President's Leadership Class (PLC), a four-year scholarship program that fosters personal and professional development, was designed for RSU students who have demonstrated leadership abilities.

RSU also offers study abroad programs in Italy and Wales through the university's Studies-at-Large Program. The international study programs provide students with opportunities to see the world, learn about other cultures, and enrich their educational experience.

Stratton Taylor Library, which opened in 2004, features distinguished collections, wireless Internet, study areas, reading rooms, computer stations and classrooms.

A Brief History of RSU

Growth in Learning Facilities

RSU was founded in 1909 as Eastern University Preparatory School in Claremore. The school prepared the daughters and sons of area residents to attend college. Historic Preparatory Hall, known for its iconic gold dome, was the first building on the school's campus.

The Centennial Center, which opened in 2009, has become the centerpiece of the main campus in Claremore. This twolevel, 50,000-square-foot facility combines student development programs under one roof, serves as a central location for students to study and socialize and provides a focal point for the RSU campus in Claremore. The facility also offers ballrooms, conference centers, and meeting rooms for the community.

However, the school closed only a few years after it opened.

Taking its place was the storied Oklahoma Military Academy (OMA), which operated on the Hill from 1919 to 1971.

ABOUT RSU

u RSU is Oklahoma’s fastest growing regional university.

Known as the “West Point of the Southwest,” OMA has an extensive register of graduates who became great leaders, both in military and civilian life. More than 2,500 OMA graduates served in the Armed Forces of the United States during World War II, the Korean War and the Vietnam War. More than 100 graduates gave their lives in service to their country.

In 1971, OMA closed and Claremore Junior College opened on the Hill, serving more than 400 students. The junior college grew rapidly in the 1970s, and by the time it was renamed Rogers State College in 1982, the institution boasted a variety of associate degree programs, distance learning capabilities, a new radio and television station and intercollegiate athletics. In 1999, the Oklahoma Legislature renamed the institution Rogers State University and charged it with seeking accreditation as a four-year university. Accreditation at the baccalaureate level was granted in 2000. RSU offers a wide variety of bachelor's degree programs to students on campuses in Claremore, Bartlesville, Pryor and online.

2014 BASEBALL OUTLOOK has been able to contribute in the rotation for the last two seasons, and he finds a way to get the job done. He has pitched very well for us and I expect him to match up with weekend starters.”

The Rogers State baseball team begins a new era in 2014 as the Hillcats will embark on their inaugural season in the NCAA Division II Heartland Conference.

The Hillcats have a whole new look after graduating 15 players from last season’s NAIA World Series team that finished the final season in the NAIA with a 36-24 overall record. Head Coach Ron Bradley will have several new faces playing across the diamond with 20 newcomers on the squad. Despite losing every starting position player to graduation, the Hillcats return 14 players who saw the field for the Diamond Cats a season ago while adding three redshirt freshmen who had a year to learn the RSU system.

A junior duo from Broken Arrow, Okla., emerged as key components out of the Hillcat bullpen a year ago. T.J. Law played in 17 games last season with three saves and one win.

Mason Marquette played in 16 games last season with three saves on the year. He tallied a 2.78 ERA, the lowest of any returner on staff.

“T.J. has had a great fall and has improved every year. He is either a weekend starter or a heavy contributor out of the bullpen. Mason is a specialty guy, he gives teams a different look. He has a chance to be really effective and we have entertained him being a starter in the rotation,” Bradley added.

“We probably do not have as much flash on our infield but this group is probably the most consistent infield that we have had as far as making the routine plays,” Bradley said. “Our program has always been built around pitching and defense. Losing several great veteran players has created a situation where the door is wide open for playing time. We are hoping to see some guys make the most of the opportunity”

Redshirt freshman Collin Thomas, sophomore Zach Tyson and Northern Oklahoma College-Tonkawa transfer Edward Layton will vie for time in the rotation.

Pitchers

The most touted returners for the Hillcats are on the pitching staff. RSU returns seven pitchers from last year’s team, including a pair of seniors who are slated to start weekend games for the Diamond Cats.

“The first two weeks of the season are very important for our rotation.

Collin is in the mix to pitch some quality inning. He is a six footseven inch right-handed pitcher with a lot of promise. Zach will also be in the mix for a spot in the rotation along with Edward, a junior college transfer who could be a mid-week starter or a bullpen guy in a conference series.”

Kyle Duncan and Jesse Baird are two of the most experienced hurlers on the Hillcat staff. Duncan has been a weekend starter for the Hillcats for the last two seasons. The Bedford, Texas native tallied complete-game performances in consecutive NAIA Opening Round Championship games to send the Hillcats to the World Series. Baird joined the Hillcats last season, and despite being plagued with injury early, the Verdigris, Okla., product played in 10 games last season with five starts.

A trio of southpaw pitchers will compete for time on the mound. Senior Kyle Deaton, sophomore Colton Weeks and junior Travis Teague all give Coach Bradley options from the left side.

“Colton has earned an opportunity to pitch and has grown in the program. Kyle Deaton and Travis Teague will also be in the mix. Senior Drew Anthony along with newcomer Matt Shepherd will more than likely come out of the bullpen.

“Jesse and Kyle are both seniors returning and they are the two coming back with the most experience,” Bradley said. “They both have post-season experience.

Jesse got off to a slow start last year due to a broken hand but he has come back and had an outstanding fall. He has tremendous work ethic and leadership. He is going to give us that quality arm that will match up with anyone’s front line. Kyle

#19 MASON MARQUETTE 13

2014 BASEBALL OUTLOOK

u The Hillcats return 15 players from the 2013 squad.

Another specialty pitcher we like is Jordan Keith from Verdigris.

He throws submarine and could be a really good match up guy.

He will definitely get some opportunities.”

First Base

With a few shifts around the diamond early this spring, Vian, Okla., native Hunter Spencer has earned a starting spot at first base. The junior transfer from Connors State College tallied a .364 batting average during his sophomore campaign.

The Hillcats haven’t been known to have a true closer on the staff and this season will not be the exception. Coach Bradley may call on any number of guys to close out the game.

“The door has opened for Hunter to get some time at first base.

He probably has the most power on our team so it will be good to get him in the lineup.”

“Coach (Robert) Brown and I have talked about having a true closer. Edward could fill that role along with maybe T.J., but he is too valuable to put on the back burner.”

Second Base

Catchers

A trio of returners will compete for the starting spot at second base with senior Nick penciled in as the everyday starter. The Wilmington, N.C., native appeared in 32 games, making 13 starts last season.

RSU will look to Johan Ochoa to fill the void at catcher after the loss of projected starter Emmanuel De La Cruz. Ochoa was the Hillcats projected starting third baseman but has quality experience behind the dish. Freshman Joe Crow will also see time at catcher.

“Second base has been a very competitive position. The frontrunner is Nick Malter. He was able to get some playing time last year and he is a very quality defender. Hamilton Hernandez, who has been a backup at second base for the last three seasons, will get some playing time. Austin Culwell is more of a utility guy.

He has one of the better arms on the infield and always leaves it all on the field; he can play second, third or short.

“Manny will be a student assistant for us and he will really be instrumental in the development of our catchers. Right now we are looking to move Johan to catcher. He played catcher last summer and really had a good fall in the innings that he caught.

He is penciled in as our opening day catcher. Joe is a hard worker and has made a lot of improvement this fall. He is a guy we feel can develop over the next two years. But he is going to have an opportunity to play some quality innings early.”

Shortstop

Northern Oklahoma College-Enid transfer Chase Knott will play shortstop for the Diamond Cats. The junior from Locus Grove, Okla., played in 47 games with 23 RBI and 28 runs scored as a sophomore.

14

2014 BASEBALL OUTLOOK “Our everyday shortstop will be Chase. He has had a good fall and is probably going to hit in the two or three-hole for us. He has brought a lot to the program both defensively and offensively.

Ryan Hendricks is a utility guy who can play everywhere on the infield and could contribute. He is someone that makes the routine play and comes up with big hits.”

Another Claremore native that could be an immediate contributor in the outfield and on offense is Isaac Hollihan, a true freshman from Claremore High School.

“Isaac will get some time off of the bench as a left-handed hitter.

He is from Claremore and has experience in some big games.

Hopefully he can DH or pinch-hit off the bench. “

Third Base

Schedule

Sophomore Caleb Kohlmeyer saw time at first base last season, playing in 18 games with a .333 batting average as a true freshman. With Ochoa moving behind the plate, Kohlmeyer will most likely shift to third base.

The Hillcats schedule looks much different than in years past.

RSU will face several teams for the first time in program history and have several long road trips to contend with during conference play.

“Caleb was penciled in at first but might get some time to play third since Ochoa will be moving to catcher.”

“This schedule brings on a different flavor than we are used to.

There is not much difference from the top to the bottom of the schedule.”

Outfield

The Hillcats will have big shoes to fill in the outfield this season as they lost NAIA All-American Colton Campbell and 2012 World Series Gold Glove winner Eric Baker to graduation.

The Heartland Conference has a rich baseball tradition with St. Mary’s and St. Edward’s each making the NCAA Division II World Series over the last two years. Although the conference is new, RSU will continue its rivalry with former Sooner Athletic Conference foe Lubbock Christian.

Junior Blake Heston was slated to be the only returning starter this season after playing in 54 games, making 38 starts last year.

However, the Pryor, Okla., native will redshirt the season after undergoing surgery in the fall.

“We have had some battles in the past with Lubbock Christian and hopefully the rivalry will continue. Oklahoma Christian is also a team we have played in the past in the SAC. St. Edward’s and St. Mary’s are probably the most talented two teams in the conference both making World Series appearances in the past.

Those are going to be trips that brings a little excitement to our community to be playing teams from those areas. It will be an enjoyable atmosphere.”

“We took a big hit losing Blake. He was a good left-handed hitter and defender. But on the bright side, we will have Blake back for the next two years.”

Junior Alex Cochran was the Diamond Cats go-to courtesy runner last year and played defensively in the outfield during late innings last season. The Broken Arrow, Okla., native played in 54 games last year and finished second on the team in stolen bases with 13.

The Hillcats will end the season with a familiar foe and one of the club’s biggest rivals against Oklahoma Baptist at OneOK Field in Tulsa, Okla., on April 29.

“Alex is penciled in as our center fielder. He has a lot of energy and will hit lead off. He has a chance to steal 20 or more bases, is a great defender and has made progress offensively.”

“We are able to play OBU and I feel like they were our biggest rival in the SAC. It always seemed to come down to them and us. It was a very good rivalry. We are going to get to end our season playing them at OneOK.

“One of the newcomers that I feel has a chance to be an offensive plus for us is Blake Gipson. He played at Dallas Baptist and Carl Albert. He really has a chance to be a three-year starter and brings a lot of pop to our lineup. He has a lot of potential.”

RSU will take on Northeastern State and Arkansas Tech in nonconference play. The Hillcats have faced both squads in past seasons.

Claremore, Okla., native J.P. Seifried is penciled in as RSU’s everyday leftfielder. He played in 38 games, starting in 35 as a true freshman at Mid-America Christian University.

“NSU and Arkansas Tech are both good non-conference opponents that will be great challenges for our ball club. Even though we lost some games off our schedule this season, we have a more consistent schedule. We are looking forward to the NCAA DII schedule and the transition to full membership.”

“A transfer from Mid-America Christian by way of Claremore, J.P. will start in left field. We need him to have a good season offensively.”

2013 BASEBALL SEASON IN REVIEW

u RSU made its second consecutive trip to the NAIA World Series in 2013.

The Diamond Cats hit a slump down the stretch, as they were swept by Lubbock Christian and lost three of four to Oklahoma City heading into the Sooner Athletic Conference tournament.

The Rogers State baseball team rounded out a storybook season in 2012 as the NAIA World Series runner-up but they had some unfinished business in 2013. The Hillcats rounded out their seven-year stint in the NAIA with a memorable NAIA Opening Round Championship in front of the hometown crowd and a second consecutive trip to the and NAIA World Series.

The Hillcats fell in back-to-back games in the conference tournament but the Cats season for long from over as they were selected by the NAIA to host an Opening Round for the NAIA World Series, receiving an automatic bid.

RSU (36-24) produced its seventh-straight winning season in 2013. After playing Cinderella at the World Series, the Hillcats were tabbed fifth in the NAIA Baseball Coaches’ Preseason Top 25 Poll. It was just the second top-five mention for the Cats.

RSU opened up the season with four wins, outscoring their opponents 53-36 before suffering two losses in Dallas, Texas against Tabor (Kan.) 1-0 and UT-Arlington 3-1.

The Hillcats were revived during the postseason as they swept through the NAIA Opening Round-Claremore Bracket. In the first game of the tournament, they clawed their way to an 8-4 victory over Midland (Neb.) as senior southpaw Shawn Spainhoward went the distance on the mound, fanning 12 hitters. In the nightcap on the opening day of play, the Hillcats avenged a regular season they suffered against fourth-ranked and topseeded Lubbock Christian as RSU grabbed a 7-5 victory. In their third game, the Diamond Cats defeated Lyon (Ark.), 16-2, pounding out 15 hits and scoring eight runs in the first inning to reach the championship game. The Hillcats were pitted against conference foe, LCU in the championship game. In front of a hometown crowd of over 500, the Hillcats clinched a berth to the Avista-NAIA World Series with an 8-4 victory over the topseeded Chaps. For the second consecutive season, the Hillcats won the Opening Round with right-handed hurler Kyle Duncan on the mound. The Bedford, Texas native went the distance in the championship game in back-to-back seasons spurring the Diamond Cats to victory.

The Hillcats rebounded and won 15 out of their next 16 games.

That streak ended with an extra inning battle against nonconference opponent university of Arkansas-Fort Smith, losing 5-4. With conference play in full effect, the Cats split a tough series with conference foe Oklahoma Baptist but bounced back, winning three out of four against Mid-America Christian, outscoring the Evangels, 32-5.

Science and Arts took three out of four games against the Hillcats but RSU bounced back with a sweep over Wayland Baptist and a non-conference win against Northeastern State at ONEOK Field.

2013 BASEBALL SEASON IN REVIEW Seeded 10th in the World Series, RSU was forced to face the hometown favorite in the opening games as the Lewis-Clark State Warriors tallied a 6-1 win over the Hillcats. The Hillcats stayed alive in the loser’s bracket with a 4-1 win over York (Neb.).

RSU was led by a standout pitching performance from senior southpaw Brandon Bargas, who fanned a season-high 10 Panthers. The Owasso, Okla., native became just the second Hillcat pitcher in program history with 200 or more career strikeouts. The Hillcats would eventually end their season losing to Missouri Baptist 5-4. RSU ended its season ranked No. 13 in the NAIA Postseason Coaches’ Top 25 Poll.

Five Diamond Cats received Sooner Athletic Conference awards for the 2013 season. Colton Campbell led the way as he was named Sooner Athletic Conference First Team, leading the conference with a .418 batting average. Eric Baker, Shawn Spainhoward, Brandon Bargas, and Keith Poverud rounded out the rest of the Hillcats to receive conference awards.

For the second year in row, Casey Cassity was named a Daktronics NAIA-Scholar Athlete. A native from Barnsdall, Okla., Cassity graduated in May with a degree in accounting and recorded a 3-2 record while tossing 31 innings on the year. Head Coach Ron Bradley rounded award winners as he was named the 2013 Rawlings-NAIA Regional Coach of the Year for the Plains Region.

u Kyle Duncan tossed complete-game victories in the opening round championship game in consecutive seasons, sending the Hillcats to the World Series.

ABOUT THE HEARTLAND CONFERENCE The Heartland Conference is an NCAA Division II conference, founded in 1999, that currently consists of 12 schools, seven from Texas, three from Oklahoma, and one each from Arkansas and Kansas. The schools comprising the Heartland Conference stretch from as far north as Wichita, Kan., as far east as Fort Smith, Ark., as far south as Laredo, Texas, and as far west as Goodwell, Okla.. The Conference stretches over a distance of 1,050 miles north to south and 610 east to west.

The schools that are in the Heartland Conference include founding members St. Edward's University (Austin, Texas), and St. Mary’s University (San Antonio, Texas), and expansion members Dallas Baptist University (Dallas, Texas) in 2002 and again in 2004, Oklahoma Panhandle State University (Goodwell, Oklahoma) in 2002, and Newman University (Wichita, Kansas), Texas A&M International University (Laredo, Texas) and The University of Texas of the Permian Basin (Odessa, Texas) in 2006, the University of Arkansas-Fort Smith (2009), McMurry University and Oklahoma Christian University in 2012, and Rogers State and Lubbock Christian in 2013.

Among the many accomplishments of these institutions are national championships in baseball, golf, swimming, basketball, softball, and nationally ranked teams in all sports. The strength of the student-athlete concept is well supported by the many NCAA scholar-athletes in each school, the high cumulative GPA of the student-athletes in each school, and the high number of student-athletes who graduate from each institution in the Heartland.

The Heartland Conference is the newest of the NCAA Division II conferences. At the present time, there are 24 conferences in NCAA Division II, totaling almost 300 institutions in full or provisional status across the nation.

Members of NCAA Division II believe that a well-conducted intercollegiate athletics program, based on sound educational principles and practices, is a proper part of the educational mission of a university or college and that the educational welfare of the participating student-athlete is of primary concern.

48

ABOUT THE HEARTLAND CONFERENCE Members of NCAA Division II support the following principles in the belief that these objectives assist in defining the division and the possible differences between it and other divisions of the Association. This statement shall serve as a guide for the preparation of legislation by the division and for planning and implementation of programs by institutions and conferences. A member of Division II: u Believes in promoting the academic success of its student-athletes, measured in part by an institution's student-athletes graduating at least at the same rate as the institution's student body; u Believes that participation in intercollegiate athletics benefits the educational experience of its student-athletes and the entire campus community; u Believes in offering opportunities for intercollegiate athletics participation consistent with the institution's mission and philosophy; u Believes in preparing student-athletes to be good citizens, leaders and contributors in their communities; u Believes in striving for equitable participation and competitive excellence, encouraging sportsmanship and ethical conduct, enhancing diversity and developing positive societal attitudes in all of its athletics endeavors; u Believes in scheduling the majority of its athletics competition with other members of Division II, insofar as regional qualification, geographical location and traditional or conference scheduling patterns permit; u Recognizes the need to "balance" the role of the athletics program to serve both the campus (participants, student body, faculty-staff) and the general public (community, area, state); u Believes in offering opportunity for participation in intercollegiate athletics by awarding athletically related financial aid to its student-athletes; u Believes that institutional control is a fundamental principle that supports the educational mission of a Division II institution and assumes presidential involvement and commitment. All funds supporting athletics should be controlled by the institution. The emphasis for an athletics department should be to operate within an institutionally approved budget, and compliance with and self-enforcement of NCAA regulations is an expectation of membership; and u Believes that all members of Division II should commit themselves to this philosophy and to the regulations and programs of Division II.

What Is A Hillcat?

The university’s official mascot, the “Hillcat,” is a unique blue and red animal that serves as a source of campus pride and provides a visual identity for the university’s Athletic, Student Activities, and other school spirit programs. The Hillcat embodies the enthusiastic, determined and bold spirit of the university’s athletic programs and the pride our students and alumni feel for the institution.

BASEBALL COACHES Ron Bradley, Head Coach rbradley@rsu.edu | 918-343-7787 Robert Brown, Assistant Coach robertbrown@rsu.edu | 918-343-6815 Jimmy Rogers, Assistant Coach 918-343-6815 Rusty Wood, Assistant Coach rwood@rsu.edu | 918-343-6815

The “Hillcat” is a fictitious cousin of the bobcat, which is indigenous to northeast Oklahoma. The “Hillcat” also draws its name from “College Hill,” a traditional nickname for RSU. The university sits atop a hill overlooking the city of Claremore. The name “Hillcat” was conceived independently by a group of RSU students in spring 2005, and approved by the University Mascot Committee, Student Government Association, President, and Administration.

RSU HILLCAT COMPLIANCE What are Boosters permitted to do?

Booster Education for RSU Alumni, Friends & Fans

u Notify coaches about prospects in your area

Rogers State University is responsible for the actions of its coaches, student-athletes and staff, as well as its alumni, boosters and fans. The following information is intended to help educate athletic boosters and organizations, so they can best support RSU athletes without putting the institution or the individual studentathletes at risk. If you have any questions or would like to seek clarification regarding your actions as a supporter of Hillcat athletics, please call the athletic compliance office at 918-343-7988 or email RSU's NCAA Compliance Coordinator, Eddie Jackson at ejackson@rsu.edu.

Enrolled Student-Athletes

What contact can Boosters have with currently enrolled studentathletes?

Boosters

What is a booster?

A booster may not provide a student-athlete any benefit or special arrangement that would not be offered to the rest of the general student population. This would include:

You are a Booster or Representative of Athletic Interests, if you: u Have participated in, or ever have been, a member of a booster organization that supports RSU athletics;

u May not entertain student-athletes or their friends or family;

u Have made any financial contribution to the RSU athletic department or any athletic organization of the University;

u May not use the name or picture of an enrolled studentathlete to advertise, recommend, or promote any product or service;

u Have been involved in the recruitment of a prospect or have been asked to assist in the recruitment of a prospective student-athlete;

A prospective student-athlete is any person who has begun classes in the ninth grade. A prospective student-athlete remains so even after signing a National Letter of Intent or accepting financial aid and until they report for the first day of classes.

NOTE: Employment may be arranged for a prospect provided the employment does not begin before the completion of the prospect's senior year of high school.

A prospect or student-athlete who accepts an impermissible benefit faces the loss of eligibility.

u Making arrangements for the prospect or the prospect's relatives or friends to receive money or financial aid u Providing transportation for a prospect or the prospect's family or friends to visit the campus u Providing free tickets or reduced priced tickets to attend an athletic event to the prospect or the prospect's family or friends u Entertaining coaches of prospects

HILLCAT ATHLETIC FACILITIES

u The centerpiece of the Diamond Sports Complex is the two-story building, completed in 2012, positioned between the baseball and softball playing fields.

Diamond Sports Complex

The Diamond Sports Complex, home to Hillcat Baseball and Softball, sits on the northwest corner of RSU's Claremore Campus featuring a professional playing surface, large inning-by-inning scoreboard, batting cages adjacent to the home dugout and spacious grandstand and lawn chair areas for fans. A large locker room is located behind the Hillcat dugout that includes individual lockers, coaches’ office, bathrooms, showers and a 42-inch flat screen television. Lights were installed in time for the 2008 season. The centerpiece at the Diamond Sports Complex is a 7,790 square-feet, two-story building positioned between the playing fields and completed in time for the start of the 2012-13 academic year. The first floor includes concessions and restrooms for patrons as well as two dressing rooms for umpires and multiple storage areas. The second floor features separate press boxes for baseball and softball, coaches’ offices, and a donors’ suite with indoor and outdoor seating. New grandstands with stadium seating, a ticket booth, and a paved entry plaza were also included in the project.

Claremore Expo Center

Claremore Expo Center serves as the home of Hillcat basketball on game nights. It is also utilized as a secondary practice facility for the men's and women's basketball teams. The Expo features arena seating on all four sides of the court for 2,000. A four-sided digital scoreboard adorns center court accompanied by professional playing goals with three-sided shot clocks on each end of the floor. A stateof-the-art sound system helps produce a fun atmosphere for fans and often creates a hostile environment for opponents. The Expo Center is located less than a mile from the RSU campus on Highway 20 in Claremore.

u RSU Basketball has called the Claremore Expo Center home since the inception of Hillcat Basketball for the 2007-08 season.

HILLCAT ATHLETIC FACILITIES

u The Hillcat Athletics Center (left) was completed in 2012 as was the artificial turf surface on Soldier Field.

Hillcat Athletics Center

The Hillcat Athletics Center for the RSU soccer and cross country teams began construction in October 2011 and was completed prior to the 2012-13 academic year. The 8,986 square-foot building is located in the north end zone of Soldier Field, adjacent to Blue Starr Drive. The facility features spacious locker rooms for the men’s and women’s soccer teams as well as the men’s and women’s cross country teams. Coaches’ offices, an athletic training room, and storage areas for athletics and intramurals are located in the central area of the building. The facility also includes permanent concessions and restrooms for patrons and a paved concourse area with sightlines to the field.

Soldier Field

Soldier Field is located in the heart of the RSU campus. The facility was originally constructed as a venue for the Oklahoma Military Academy's football games. The field has been widened and resurfaced and a new digital scoreboard has been added in the south end zone. Soldier Field also features a large press box, lights, a public address system and stadium seating for a great view of the action.

Installation of the new turf began following the conclusion of the RSU soccer season in November 2011 and was completed in May 2012. The artificial turf surface allows RSU to maximize the availability and functionality of historic Soldier Field. The durability of artificial turf permits the university to utilize Soldier Field for athletic training and competition, intramural sports, and other student activities and community events.

Bushyhead Fieldhouse

Bushyhead Fieldhouse serves as the on-campus practice facility for RSU men's and women's basketball teams. The gym recently received a complete makeover which included refurbishing and repainting the floor, the addition of six new goals, new digital scoreboards and the installation of portable seating with a capacity of 300. Bushyhead is also the home of the athletic department offices as well as the RSU Wellness Center - a private weight training facility for student-athletes. Bushyhead houses both the men's and women's basketball locker rooms, an athletic training room, an academic tutoring center for student-athletes and public restrooms. The Hillcats play their home games in the Claremore Expo Center, located one mile south of campus.

The university’s official mascot, the “Hillcat,” is a unique blue and red animal that serves as a source of campus pride and provides a visual identity for the university’s Athletics, Student Activities, and other school spirit programs.

The university celebrated the first-ever Homecoming during the first week of November 2007, during the first Hillcat men’s and women’s basketball games.

At RSU, Homecoming is a campus-wide tradition.

A bonfire is typically held the night before the big games in the open area west of the University Village B student apartments.

The “Hillcat” embodies the enthusiastic, determined and bold spirit of the university’s athletic programs and the pride our students and alumni feel for the institution.

A campus office decoration competition is held during Homecoming Week, in which students and staff members compete to show their Hillcat pride.

It is a fictitious cousin of the bobcat, which is indigenous to northeast Oklahoma.

The Hillcat Hacker Invitational is a fun-filled golf event played amidst the hazards of Rogers State University’s scenic Claremore campus. The game features special nondestructive golf balls and is designed for pros, amateurs and hackers alike. The goal of this event is to generate camaraderie among the university’s friends and alumni, showcase RSU’s beautiful and historic campus and establish an outstanding Hillcat Homecoming tradition.

The mascot also draws its name from “College Hill,” a traditional nickname for RSU. The university sits atop a hill overlooking the city of Claremore.

The name was conceived independently by a group of RSU students in spring 2005, and approved by the University Mascot Committee, Student Government Association, President, and Administration.

The Slam Dunk Contest and 3-point Shootout has become a yearly tradition held on the Thursday of Homecoming Week.

The Homecoming Tailgate Party, held outside of the Claremore Expo Center, is one of the most popular Homecoming events for students, alumni, and the community. For more information, visit www.rsu.edu/homecoming.

The mascot was developed and officially unveiled to the campus in 2005 by RSUPR – the university’s Office of Public Relations – with the assistance of SME Branding of New York, N.Y.

RSU HILLCAT TRADITIONS

u The Hillcat tradition of “Fear the Claw” began seven years ago and has spread throughout, the student body.

Fear the Claw

Fight Song

Not long after Hillcat men’s and women’s basketball was introduced at RSU, the home court at the Claremore Expo Center quickly gained a reputation as a formidable venue for opponents.

As a member of the Hillcat team aligns himself or herself on the free throw line, the crowd at the Expo Center extends one arm skyward and makes the sign of the claw with their fists.

Hillcats of RSU Standing tall in Red and Blue We will prevail We refuse to fail Because our spirit's great We wear our colors proudly On our way to victory Go Rogers State!!!

If the shot falls successfully, arms descend in the manner of the scratch of a ferocious wild cat.

Lyrics by Yvonne Pace Music by Clarence Woods/arr. Weller

As members of an opposing team prepare to shoot a free throw, the rowdy RSU student section has been known to intimidate the shooter. Depending on the shooter’s fortitude, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t!

Alma Mater

Rise above the Claremore valley Camelot to view, Stands our gracious alma mater Thrusting t’ward the blue.

Lift the chorus, speed it onward For the Red and Blue, Hail to thee our alma mater Hail to R-S-U!
