LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT We welcome you to another season of Hillcat softball, 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 Softball.

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 Hillcats enter the NCAA era with a new head coach at the helm as former assistant Amy Cope will take over the program. The Hillcat softball team has enjoyed tremendous success since their inaugural season. In their final season in the NAIA, the Softball Cats left their mark with a 30-0 start, ending the season in the Opening Round championship game. We are excited about the team Coach Cope and her staff has put together and looking forward to a successful season on and off the field.

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 softball team has built a solid foundation for the program while also emphasizing the importance of academic success. We appreciate your interest in our fledging athletic programs and hope you will join us at the Diamond Sports Complex 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.

5

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.

AMY COPE - HEAD SOFTBALL COACH As recruiting coordinator, Cope brought in the Hillcats best recruiting class to date prior to the 2013 season securing the Softball Cats first-ever NAIA All-American and the only firstteam All-American in RSU school history. The 2012 signing class went on to produce one first-team all-conference selection and three second team all-conference members.

Amy Cope was named the third head coach in Rogers State softball program history in April 2013.

Cope spent five years as an assistant coach at RSU before being promoted to the helm of the program. In 2013, as an assistant, she helped the Hillcats to their best record in her time on the Hill finishing the season 40-19 and making the program’s first ever appearance in the NAIA National Championship.

Cope, formerly Amy Renault, completed a standout playing career at the University of Science & Arts of Oklahoma in 2008. She earned all-conference honors in softball at Connors State College before finishing her career at USAO. The former Claremore High School standout helped the Lady Zebras to a pair of state championships in 2003. During her junior season at CHS, Cope was a member of the girl’s basketball team that won the 5A state title. In her senior campaign, she spurred the Lady Zebras to a softball state title in the fall of 2003.

The Claremore, Okla., native returned home to begin her coaching career with the Hillcats in 2009.

In her five years as assistant to Mark Dicus, the Hillcats compiled a 175-120 record. As an assistant coach, Cope worked primarily with infielders and coached first base.

ANDREA VAUGHAN - ASSISTANT COACH Andrea Vaughan begins her second season as a member of the Rogers State softball coaching staff in 2014 and assumes the duties as the program’s pitching coach.

Vaughan comes to the Hill after spending eight years as the Program Director and head softball coach at Oologah High School. During her time at the helm of the Mustangs, the team enjoyed tremendous success. OHS won the 2012 4A state championship and the Verdigris Valley Conference championship with an overall record of 31-5. The team made a semi-final appearance at the state tournament in 2011 and made it to the quarterfinals twice in her tenure (2005 and 2010).

Fourteen of Vaughan’s players have gone on to play at the collegiate level. She coached 27 all-conference players, 12 all-region members and four all-state award winners. Vaughan has twice been named Region 3 Coach of the Year (2010 and 2012) and is a two-time Tulsa 7 Coach of the Year (2010 and 2011). In 2010, she was named the 4A East All-State Coach and was honored as the 2012 Tulsa World All-Metro Coach of the Year.

Vaughan enjoyed a standout collegiate career at Oklahoma City University, making three consecutive trips to the NAIA National Tournament. The Chiefs won the NAIA National Championship in 1997, were second runner-up in 1998, and made it to the title game in 1999. Vaughan, a right-handed pitcher, was a two-time Academic All-American at OCU.

2014 SOFTBALL OUTLOOK The 2014 edition of Rogers State softball will be one of firsts for the program entering its ninth year of competition under firstyear head coach Amy Cope and its first season in the Heartland Conference.

"Jackie is very quick, fast, and a great defensive player. She has a great arm and an even better work ethic. She will be really good for us," added Cope. "Katie has a cannon for an arm and good range. She is someone we converted to be a left-handed slapper and she has shown great improvement on the offensive end. I can't wait to see what she will add to our lineup with her speed."

While the Hillcats may be without seven seniors from last year's team that posted a 40-19 record, coming one win shy of the National Championship final site, there is a sense of excitement emanating through the program after reaching the NAIA Opening Round championship game.

The Hillcats have only one pitcher on the roster with collegiate experience, and she is coming off knee surgery. That fact does not deter Coach Cope as senior Yolanda Rios (Fullerton, Calif.) showed she is more than capable of being the team's go-to pitcher despite limited action last season where she posted a 1.31 earned run average in 58.2 innings pitched. Rios threw more than 400 innings in two seasons at Midland Junior College winning 47 ballgames before transferring to RSU at the start of 2013.

"We have a strong, core group returning from last year when we made a great run through the NAIA," said Cope, who was promoted to the helm last April after spending the previous five seasons as an assistant coach with RSU. "Despite losing seven seniors, I think that having our main group back at key positions should help us this season."

From that core group mentioned

by Coach Cope, three outfielders are back for their seniors seasons with the Hillcats bringing a wealth of experience, led by 2013 NAIA FirstTeam All-America selection Candace Monigold. The Broken Arrow, Okla., native became the first RSU student-athlete to earn FirstTeam All-America honors after starting 56 of 57 games a year ago leading the team in nearly every offensive category. This included three singleseason records with 77 hits, a .480 on-base percentage, and a .433 batting average.

"Yolanda is a huge key for us and will be our day-to-day starting pitcher," stated Cope. "We structure our defense around her and her pitching capabilities. She is ready to go after working very hard with the RSU athletic training staff rehabbing her knee following ACL surgery."

The other pitchers on the Hillcat staff are two of only three players that made the jump to Rogers State straight from high school in Brooklyne Harbert (Fountain, Colo.) and Mikayla McGoldrick (Omaha, Ark.).

"Candace can continue her success from last season and put up even better numbers," said Cope. "She is a big-time stick in our lineup and has tremendous power while hitting to all sides of the field. She does a great job in centerfield as well and holds down the outfield for us."

"Brooklyne and Mikayla come in as freshmen with a lot of potential and will help Yolanda with the pitching duties," added Cope. "They both still have a good deal to learn but I am confident they will do so quickly."

Returning to a familiar spot in left field is Jackie Flores (San Elizario, Texas), who played 35 games in her first season at RSU in 2013, while Katie Ellington will take the reins in right field after getting the starting nod in 17 of 45 games played a year ago.

2014 SOFTBALL OUTLOOK

u RSU will complete its inaugural season in the Heartland Conference in 2014.

Back to her spot at second base, Cailin Simpson (Riverside, Calif.) was named to the Sooner Athletic Conference SecondTeam All-Conference squad in 2013 hitting .346, driving in 26 runs, and scoring 35 times. Simpson made 51 starts a year ago in her first season in a Hillcat uniform.

Independence Community College where she was named NJCAA First-Team All-American for the Lady Pirates. Conley will help anchor the middle infield while providing another quality bat as she hit .513 in 57 games with 14 home runs and 67 RBIs as a sophomore.

"Cailin had a great defensive season for us last year. She works hard and has a great attitude which is infectious for the rest of the team," explained Cope of the junior.

"Carley is going to be our everyday shortstop after coming over from a great program where she got experience at a high level," added Cope. "She can hit, and hit with power, and will be a great defensive player for us."

Senior Taran Threet (Wellston, Okla.) is the only current player who has been at RSU all four years and will open 2014 at third base while also seeing action at first base. Threet is one of four Hillcats that played all 57 games last season batting .250 with four home runs and 24 runs scored.

A former dual-sport athlete for the Hillcats having previously played on the women's basketball team, Kelby Fritz (Vinita, Okla.) will utilize her athleticism to play a variety of positions for the Softball Cats as a senior in 2014 after making one appearance a season ago.

"Taran is a great contact hitter and rarely strikes out. She is one of the hardest working players on the team and has been a key starter for us the last three seasons," stated Cope of the versatile senior, who has made 165 career starts for RSU.

"Kelby can play middle infield as well as outfield and will add depth to our lineup," said Cope. "She has a quickness to her that we can use on the base paths and will be a weapon offensively."

In her second season on the Hill, senior Toni Shurtliff (Hesperia, Calif.) is slated to cover first-base duties following a 2013 campaign where she started 38 games.

Junior Kassie Brugmann (Burkburnett, Texas) makes the transition to RSU from Vernon College providing depth to the corner infield positions and can step behind the plate as needed.

"Kassie played at a high level with the Chaparrals and comes to us as a versatile player," declared Cope.

"Toni will be a big part of what we do this season and adds a lot of speed to the bases," said Cope. "She is a great contact hitter and will make some great plays both offensively and defensively."

Carley Conley (Paris, Texas) is one of four transfers to the RSU lineup and the junior is coming off an impressive 2013 at

A pair of transfers will share the majority of catching duties with junior Makenzie Kirk (Bixby, Okla.) opening the season as the

14

2014 SOFTBALL OUTLOOK starter while incoming sophomore Jamie Kowalick (Petrolia, Texas) continues to learn the defensive system after entering the program at semester from Independence Community College.

"Makenzie is someone I look to be a leader on the field even as a newcomer to the program," explained Cope of the former Northern Oklahoma College standout. "She is a vocal player in the field and can hit really well, whether with power or for contact.

Jamie came in at semester and is still learning our system but she will be a great addition once she gets more exposure. She blocks a lot of balls and does not allow many to get past her."

While the roster may feature 11 of 14 players with prior collegiate experience, Coach Cope knows that bringing in transfer players is a major benefit to the program.

"One of the reasons I recruit junior-college transfers is that they bring in experience, whether that's in the classroom or in games, you know what you are getting with a player, and there are not many surprises," explained Cope. "They all have different playing backgrounds with top-tier teams and they can bring it all together here and buy into the system."

One of the main focuses for Coach Cope in her first season directing the Hillcats is defense and she has made sure everyone on the team knows that is the top priority heading into the season.

"Defense is a huge component to what we do," said Cope. "We return a lot of players, especially in the outfield and I will be surprised if many balls drop. Having a strong upperclassmen defense, we will rely on them heavily, and we can set them up to our different pitching styles."

RSU will take the experience it gained from playing in the NAIA's Sooner Athletic Conference for seven years and enter a new chapter in the program's history with its first look at the NCAA's Division II Heartland Conference.

"Everything is going to be new for us this year other than playing two of the former SAC schools in Lubbock Christian and Oklahoma Christian," added Cope. "There will be a small learning curve to seeing the different styles of the coaches and teams we play. The three schools that are joining the Heartland Conference will make it a better, tougher conference altogether.

We are excited about the new opportunity."

With the Hillcats joining the Heartland Conference amidst the transition to NCAA Division II, the Softball Cats will have to play for something other than a chance at postseason play.

"Even though we are not postseason eligible, these next three years are crucial to our program and laying the foundation to have success in the future as a member of the NCAA," concluded Cope.

u Makenzie Kirk will split time between third base and catcher.

2013 SOFTBALL SEASON IN REVIEW

u Head Coach Mark Dicus ended his five-year stint at RSU with a 40-win season.

RSU tallied a 7-1 win over Cardinal Stretch and a 5-0 win over Ottawa (Kan.) before defeating Midland College in dramatic come-from-behind fashion with a grand slam by Shelby Brogdon to give the Cats an 11-7 win. The Hillcats used a 4-2 win over Sooner Athletic Conference foe USAO to send them to the championship. RSU earned the tournament title with a 5-2 win over Midland in the championship game.

Head Coach Mark Dicus ended his era on the Hill with the first 40-win season in his five years at the helm, taking his Rogers State softball team to the NAIA National Championship Opening Round.

The Hillcats’ memorable season started with the best win-streak in program history, opening the season with an unblemished 300 mark.

The Hillcats turned some heads with their five-win weekend and impressive record, coming in at No. 4 in the first regular season edition of the 2013 NAIA Softball Coaches' Top 25 Poll with a 27-0 record and an 8-0 start in the SAC.

RSU opened the season with a win over Bacone in Muskogee, Okla., before the Hillcats made their debut at the newly renovated Diamond Sports Complex with a pair of wins over William Woods. The four-win week led to newcomer Candace Monigold earning the first Sooner Athletic Conference Player of the Week honors for the season, hitting .643 with a double, two triples, and two home runs.

RSU’s streak came to an end on spring break as the Hillcats split a doubleheader with No. 21 Mobile (Ala.). Despite the first loss of the season, RSU moved up to No. 3 in the NAIA Poll, its highest ranking on the year, and in program history.

Continuing to roll past opponents, RSU opened conference play with a doubleheader sweep over the University of Science and Arts of Oklahoma. Despite pushing its win-streak to 13 games, RSU had a set back during the series, losing ace pitcher Yolanda Rios to a season-ending knee injury.

RSU dropped a four-game series at then-No.6 Lubbock Christian and lost three out of four to then-No. 20 St. Gregory’s.

After sliding to No. 18 in the polls, RSU bounced back with a doubleheader sweep over Oklahoma Baptist. The Hillcats ended the regular season opposite of the way it started, losing eight straight, including two losses at the Sooner Athletic Conference Tournament.

The Hillcats continued to add to the win column and saw their flawless record tested at the David Fillmore Memorial Tournament, hosted by Evangel (Mo.). RSU registered five wins en route to winning the tournament remaining undefeated on the season (27-0) but needed late-inning heroics on more than one occasion to keep the record perfect.

The NAIA named Rogers State one of the 10 host sites for the inaugural NAIA Softball National Championship Opening Round.

2013 SOFTBALL SEASON IN REVIEW

u RSU graduated seven seniors during the 2013 season.

The Hillcats fell to top-seeded Williams Baptist (Ark.) in the NAIA Opening Round-Rogers State Bracket championship game to end its season. RSU upset the No. 6-ranked Lady Eagles, forcing them to climb to the championship game through the loser’s bracket and beat RSU twice to claim the title. RSU ended the season with a 40-18 overall record.

Seven members of the squad tallied accolades from the Sooner Athletic Conference for the 2013 season. Ashlie Fauchier and Monigold led the way for the Hillcats each landing on the first team all-conference squad. Laura Fleck, Desiree Ayarzagoitia Shona Guerrero, Cailin Simpson and Jamie King were all featured on the second team.

Monigold was named to the 2013 NAIA Softball All-America First-Team by the NAIA All-America committee. Monigold, a junior from Broken Arrow, Okla., became the first RSU studentathlete to earn First-Team All-America honors. She also was the first RSU softball player to be named an all-American. The Hillcats’ everyday centerfielder burst onto the scene in her first season at RSU, starting all 56 games she played in on the year.

Monigold broke three RSU single-season records with 77 hits, a .480 on base percentage, and a .433 batting average. She also led the team in doubles, triples, home runs and RBIs. She finished the season with a .713 slugging percentage and a .944 fielding percentage.

Katrina Loy and Niki Keck were named 2013 Daktronics-NAIA Scholar-Athletes. Loy was also named to the Capital One Academic All-District Softball Team for the second-consecutive season while Fleck earned the honor for the first time and was one of two pitchers named to the team.

Seven Hillcat seniors played their final game in RSU red and blue.

Niki Keck, Shona Guerrero, Ashlee Dillman, Shelby Brogdon, Linsey Curtis, Katrina Loy, and Ashlie Fauchier made immense contributions to the program during their time on College Hill.

The Hillcats return eight players for the 2014 season.

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.

40

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.

Hillcats, Cats, Softball Cats, Diamond Cats (baseball), etc. are acceptable. u Refer to the institution as Rogers State on first mention in news releases or other communications about sports events. The words university or college are understood in such releases, and are a commonly accepted practice within athletics.

RSU’s sports information office produces media guides and game notes for softball games, which include rosters, schedules and statistical leaders. Opponents are asked to supply RSU -- either via, email or with a link to availability on the web -- with detailed rosters, up-to-date statistics and season scores, for use in our game day notes no later than a day before the event.

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.

SOFTBALL COACHES Amy Cope, Head Coach acope@rsu.edu | 918-343-6813 Andrea Vaughan, Assistant Coach avaughan@rsu.edu | 918-343-7562 Kyle Pease, Assistant Coach kpease@rsu.edu | 918-343-7562

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.

u Attend athletic contests where prospects compete, but may not contact the prospect or the prospect's relatives u Continue existing friendships with families of prospects, but not attempt to recruit u Participate with prospects in organized institutional community engagement activities when prospects reside within 100-mile radius of location (Effective 8/1/07)

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;

u May not provide awards or gifts to student-athletes; u May not allow a student-athlete to use a telephone to make free calls, or allow use of a free or discounted auto mobile;

u Have provided or are providing benefits to an enrolled student-athlete or his or her relatives or friends; u Have otherwise been involved in promoting the RSU athletic program;

u May not provide a student-athlete free or reduced cost goods or services;

u Have helped arrange employment for student-athletes;

NOTE: An enrolled student-athlete may be invited to a booster's home for an occasional home-cooked meal, but may not be taken to a restaurant.

u Are a parent or guardian of an enrolled student-athlete; u Are or have ever been a season-ticket holder.

NOTE: Once someone has been identified as a Booster, they will retain that identity forever.

Recruiting

A student-athlete may be employed so long as compensation is only for work actually performed, at a rate commensurate with the going rate in that locality for similar work, and the student-athlete was not hired based on athletics ability.

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.

What are Boosters prohibited from doing?

RSU is responsible for the actions of its boosters and booster support groups. Boosters are regulated by the same NCAA rules and regulations placed upon all institutional athletics staff members.

Institutional Control

u Contacting a prospect in person on or off campus u Writing or telephoning a prospect or member of the prospect's family

Consequences

If a booster provides an impermissible benefit to a prospect, a student-athlete, or their relatives or friends, institutions may be subject to penalties, even if the student-athlete has completed his or her eligibility. 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.

RSU HILLCAT TRADITIONS

u Hunter the Hillcat was given his name in 2009 through an online voting contest.

Hillcat

Homecoming Week

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!
