The William R. Johnson Coliseum â&#x20AC;&#x201C; to the Ladyjacks, the name represents home; for opponents the name conjures up memories of fear, intimidation and losses. The William R. Johnson Coliseum has become one of the toughest places to play for opponents. Since the coliseum was built in 1974, the Ladyjacks have amassed a 370-97 (.792) record. The coliseum gives the Ladyjacks an even bigger home court advantage come postseason. SFA is 22-1 (.957) in SLC Tournament games played in the coliseum. In its 30-plus-year history, the coliseum has hosted to two NCAA regional tournaments and two AIAW national tournament games. In those games the Ladyjacks amassed an 8-3 (.727) record, including a 3-2 (.600) record in the 1993 and 1996 NCAA Midwest Regionals.

The SFA Ladyjacks have dominated the Southland Conference through the years, but the Ladyjacks’ accomplishments on the court have been rivaled by their accomplishments off

the court. SFA head coach Lee Ann Riley’s

troops have been involved in giving back to the Nacogdoches community. During

Riley’s time in Nacogdoches, the Ladyjacks have

participated in the Special Olympics, Boys and Girls Clubs and March of Dimes, and have read to children at the local elementary schools.

The Ladyjacks also participated in a “Pink

Zone” game this season to help raise awareness for

breast cancer. The Ladyjacks honored breast cancer survivors with a special halftime ceremony. SFA

head coach Lee Ann Riley wore a pink scarf, belt and heels.

When the Ladyjacks don the purple and white, they are representing more than a university; they also are representing their community.

Team Outlook After entering the Southland Conference tournament as the fifth seed in consecutive seasons, the Ladyjacks enter 2009-10 with added excitement. The majority of that excitement surrounds head coach Lee Ann Riley’s veteran squad. SFA returns all but one letterwinner, guard Jessica Gaines, and all five starters, from last year’s 15-14 (.517) season. The Ladyjack roster, which has been one of the youngest in the conference over the past two seasons, has now become one of the more veteran lineups in the league. The Ladyjacks enter the upcoming season returning the overwhelming majority of their firepower from last season. SFA returns 96 percent of its offense, 97 percent of its rebounding and 99 percent of its shot-blocking capability from last season. “The thing I’ve been most impressed with from the end of last year to now is the maturity of this team,” said Riley. “With as many returning players as we have that should happen, but it is not always a guarantee. We are blessed to be returning all but one letterwinner. “Right now our starting lineup is wide open. The reason for that is because of the amount of returning depth on the roster. That is a good problem to have,” said Riley. A big strength for the Ladyjacks in 2009-10 will be at the guard spot. SFA returns an overwhelming number of players who bring a wide array of skills to the floor. Along with the talent level, SFA is also blessed to have a wealth of talent at every rung of the classification ladder, from sophomore to senior. Coach Riley, who is entering her ninth season at the helm, will once again look to senior Whitney Cormier to set the tone offensively. The 5-9, guard really came into her own down the stretch, averaging 15.4 points and 6.4 rebounds per game during conference action last season. She led the Ladyjacks, averaging 12.1 points and 5.7 rebounds, on her way to first-team all-conference honors. “With everything that Whitney has accomplished, you feel pretty good about her spot,” said Riley. “Whitney is an unsung hero. She is a very quiet individual who has elevated her game every year. There are just so many things that Whitney does well. She’s proven herself as a scorer, but she also does all of the little things that help make your team better.” Sophomore Tammara Marion was a perfect complement to Cormier’s slashing style of play. Marion appeared to be well on her way to making a push to conference freshman of the year honors before an injury midway through the season slowed her down, but that did not

diminish what she accomplished. The sharp-shooting guard finished second on the team, averaging 9.3 points per game, and led the team from three-point land connecting on 42-of-110 (.382) attempts. “Tammara had an outstanding rookie season,” said Riley. “But, unfortunately her year was slowed by a high-ankle sprain, and she never fully recovered. We need her to become a more consistent player, and she is capable of that. “Tammara’s best quality may be her shooter’s mentality. When she gets the ball she’s looking to shoot. She may miss a couple, but she isn’t going to allow that to affect her next shot,” added Riley. Throughout her career Riley has enjoyed the services of some of the program’s top three-point threats. That was a concern as the coaching staff hit the recruiting trail, finding another long-range weapon to stretch the defense. Riley believes they found the answer in guard Chelsea Foy from Jacksonville College. The school’s all-time leading three-point shooter, Foy knocked down 120 triples in her two seasons at Jacksonville. “We have to be a better perimeter shooting team,” said Riley. “We were faced with a lot of zone defenses last year – teams were daring us to shoot it from beyond the arc. That was our main goal when we targeted Chelsea. We needed another three-point threat, someone who was going to extend the defense. If our opponents are denying Tammara or Chelsea, then that will open things up in the low post.” The Ladyjacks will also look for junior forward Jordan Ford to return to the form that made her one of the league’s top young players during the 2007-08 season when she averaged 9.3 points and 5.8 rebounds per game. Ford struggled early during her sophomore campaign but really started to come around down the stretch. Ford finished the season averaging 7.4 points per game. “Jordan will be the first to tell you she was disappointed about her sophomore season,” said Riley. “The one thing that made Jordan so successful as a freshman was that fact that she never got tired. She is a high-energy player. Last year she was hampered by some fatigue issues, and that hurt her game. We need her to be healthy this year, and she has really addressed that during the offseason.” The responsibility of getting the ball into the hands of the Ladyjack playmakers will be placed on the shoulders

Team Outlook of junior Ebony Alexander and sophomore Cambria Smith. The two veterans provide SFA with a different look. Alexander is a streaky player with the ability to score, while Smith is a “pass-first” point guard who brings more speed to the floor. “Cambria is a pass-first point guard who had a strong freshman season,” said Riley. “She had some moments where she struggled, as all freshmen do, but she brings an added element of speed to our team. She has the ability to get by anybody. Cambria doesn’t look to score, but looks to get a better scoring opportunity for her teammates. But she needs to understand, when she’s open she needs to shoot.” “Ebony is a very talented young lady. She can do so many things for us on the floor. The one thing we are working with her is on her consistency. We need her to be consistent every game. She is now a junior and has played a ton during that time. We need her to take her game to the next level,” said Riley. Two other players who will figure into the mix at point guard will be sophomore Courtney Conwright and transfer Brittany Hardy. Conwright is coming off a tough rookie season that was plagued by injury. Conwright played in 11 games for the Ladyjacks last season. Hardy is a transfer from NCAA Division II Incarnate Word where she earned all-conference honors. A highenergy player who brings added speed to the lineup, Hardy is almost like another returner for Riley, having spent last season on the Ladyjack practice squad. Junior Decreasha Goodner should see plenty of time at the off guard spot in 200910. After averaging nearly seven points and four rebounds in 21 starts during her rookie season, Goodner struggled to find the mark in her sophomore campaign. An attacking guard with the ability to penetrate and finish down low, she averaged fewer than 12 minutes per contest during her sophomore season. “Decreasha’s biggest critic is herself,” said Riley. “At times she tries to be to perfect, instead of relaxing and playing her game, and at times I think that hurt her play. But she is the same in all aspects of her life, striving to be the very best. She’s a very driven young lady.” The Ladyjacks will turn to a rotation of four players to provide production in the low post in juniors Toni Davis and Chantol Drennan and sophomores Amina Sawyer and Schera Sampson. Sampson, Drennan and Sawyer bring good size to the floor, standing 6-0, 6-1 and 6-2, respectively, while Davis is a powerful defender down low. Davis has the most starting experience of the group, having started 35 games in her two seasons. Davis has the ability to put up big numbers at both ends

of the floor but has struggled with staying on the floor, at times leading the team in fouls. “Toni plays such a physical game, and I don’t want to take that away from her, but we need her to be able to stay on the court,” said Riley. “She has to cut down on the reach-in fouls. Toni is an undersized post but plays so strong that at times she gets the fouls called against her. She is not afraid to guard a 6-4 player, understanding that she has to keep them away from the basket, and she has the ability to do that. Technically speaking, Toni is the best post defender I’ve ever coached.” Drennan has played in 51 games and has earned five starts during her career. The Ladyjacks are looking for more consistency from Drennan, whose numbers dropped off in 2008-09. “Chantol is a power post who is left-handed,” said Riley. “She had a similar season to Jordan (Ford) from the standpoint that she struggled more last year compared to her rookie season. She knows what she is good at, but she didn’t always play to her strengths last season. We really need her to step up and be a leader this season.” Both Sawyer and Sampson asserted themselves as two of the league’s better young players last season. The duo brings a dominating presence in the low post defensively, while showing signs of being able to carry the load offensively. Sawyer finished tied for sixth in the league and led the team, averaging 1.0 blocks per game, but Sampson was the more intimidating blocker in the conference-only games, averaging 1.1 blocks per game. “Amina had a solid freshman year,” said Riley. “Like all freshmen she hit some bumps along the way, but no one on the team works harder to improve than her. She is a great teammate because she’s always so positive, except with herself. If she misses a shot she gets down on herself, and that is the one thing that she’s got to overcome. She has also worked real hard during the offseason after getting stronger.” “Schera is such a talented young lady. She has the ability to do some special things on the court. Schera is a unique individual who can take control of a game at both ends of the floor. Her year was slowed by the fact that she had knee surgery, and that slows you down, but we saw a glimpse of what she’s capable of toward the end of the year. She has the potential to be a difference maker this season,” added Riley. The Ladyjacks will face another tough slate in 2009-10, which will include contests against the Big 10, Big 12, Conference USA and Western Athletic Conference. SFA opens the season Nov. 14 against North Texas in Nacogdoches, before Rice comes to town the following week. SFA’s non-conference schedule will consist of dates against Michigan, Texas A&M, Tulane, Louisiana Tech and Tulsa before they open a tough Southland Conference slate against Sam Houston State Saturday, Jan. 9.

Head Coach

2006 SLC Coach of the Year Head Coach

Ninth Season

131-105 (.555)

Baylor, 1985

Lee Ann Riley SFA head coach Lee Ann Riley returns for her ninth season on the Ladyjack sidelines. During Riley’s time in Nacogdoches, Ladyjack fans have been privy to more than 100 victories, three 20-win seasons, two NCAA Championship appearances, a WNIT appearance, two Southland Conference regular-season and tournament titles, and the program’s 800th win. A former SLC Coach of the Year, Riley guided a youthful Ladyjack squad through remarkable moments in 2007-08. SFA became only the sixth program in women’s basketball history to record 800 wins. It was a remarkable night; the Ladyjacks joined the likes of Tennessee, Louisiana Tech, Old Dominion, Texas and James Madison by recording win No. 800 against rival Sam Houston State. In addition to the overall accomplishment, the day also served as Sue Gunter Day on the SFA campus. The Ladyjacks paid tribute to the legendary coach by naming the Ladyjack basketball offices in her honor. Last season was very similar to the 2007-08 campaign, with a youthful roster comprised primarily of freshmen and sophomores, and only two seniors. The Ladyjacks jumped out of the gates quickly, winning three of their first four games, but with all young teams, there are growing pains. Riley guided her young squad through a tough stretch in the middle of the season, watching them peak at the right time. The Ladyjacks got out to a quick start in conference play, advancing to the SLC Championship tournament for the 22nd consecutive season. The Ladyjacks faced Lamar in the first round of the tournament, marking the first time in conference history that two teams had met in the opening round of the tournament in four consecutive seasons. The 2006-07 season was another successful campaign for SFA, recording 21 victories and making their first trip to the WNIT since the 1986-87 season. After graduating a talented senior class stocked full of All-SLC honors the year before, Coach Riley was put in the position of revamping her squad with young talent. The Ladyjacks entered the regular season with a ton of question marks, but as the season wore on, those questions turned to positive answers. In the fourth game of the season, SFA’s youthful squad rattled off a 10-point upset of Louisiana Tech. Senior Charity Egenti transitioned from a top reserve into the league’s most dominant player, averaging 16.5 points, 9.8 rebounds and 1.8 blocks per game. She was

also among the league leaders with 12 double-doubles. Egenti was rewarded by the league for her work on the court, being named SLC Player of the Year. Egenti’s honor marked the second consecutive year that SFA had a firstteam all-conference player, and it marked the school’s first player of the year since Stephanie Whitmore received the honor in 2000. After advancing to the SLC Championship game for a second consecutive season, the Ladyjacks received an automatic berth in the WNIT. It marked the program’s first trip to the WNIT since 1987. The Ladyjacks faced 2006-07 Missouri Valley Conference Champions Southern Illinois in the opening round of the tournament. SFA has been a major player in the Southland Conference since joining the league. The Ladyjacks have won 14 of 22 regular season titles and 15 league tournament titles. Riley’s 2005-06 squad only added to that tradition. SFA rolled through the regular-season with a 23-7 (.767) overall record and won the Southland Conference with a 14-2 (.875) tally. It marked the 25th time in program history that SFA had won at least 20 games in a season.

Head Coach The Ladyjacks also finished the regular season ranked among the nation’s elite in blocked shots (eighth), scoring offense (29th) and field-goal percent defense (29th). Senior Kendria Smith was ranked among the nation’s top 20 in blocks (2.3 bpg - 18th). The Ladyjacks also made a return appearance in the NCAA Championships, as a No. 13 seed. It marked

the 18th time in program history that SFA advanced to the postseason tournament. The Ladyjacks faced fourthseeded Arizona State in the first round of the tournament. Following the regular season, the honors started pouring in for Riley and her team. She was recognized by the conference as the 2006 SLC Coach of the Year, and four of her players garnered all-conference honors. Senior LaToya Mills was named first-team all-conference, becoming the first Ladyjack to receive All-SLC recognition in all four seasons. Classmates Kendria Smith and Britany Vinson earned third-team All-SLC recognition, and sophomore Nikki Carr was an honorable mention allconference selection at point guard. Almost lost in the shuffle of the Ladyjacks’ run to the 2006 conference title was a career achievement for Riley. On Jan. 12th, the Ladyjacks defeated Lamar, 80-58, which marked Riley’s 200th career win. Riley took over as the Ladyjacks’ head coach prior to the 2001-02 season, guiding the team to the 2002 SLC regular-season and tournament championship. The Ladyjacks went 24-6 on their way to the SLC title, advancing to their 15th consecutive NCAA tournament appearance and their 17th appearance overall. The Ladyjacks were one of the hottest teams in the nation heading into the tournament, winning a season-high 16 consecutive games and 22 of their final 23. Riley left her mark on the SFA program in just her first year, leading SFA to its 24th 20-win season in school history. Riley became the fifth SFA head coach to win 20 games during their first season, and she finished tied with Mary Ann Otwell (1980-81) for most wins by a first-year Ladyjack head coach (24). The Ladyjacks also set an SLC record for wins in a season in 2001-02, going 19-1 (.950). Riley’s troops received national recognition for their on-the-court exploits. SFA was ranked among the nation’s top 10 for current winning streak (16), top 20 in scoring defense (56.7), win/loss percentage (24-6/.800), current home-winning streak (13), and guard Jessica Guild was among the nation’s top 20 with her 3.43 steals per contest. During the 2002 NCAA Women’s Final Four, Riley was selected to coach in the WBCA All-Star Challenge. The all-star team was composed of the nation’s top collegiate seniors who squared off against the USA National team. The Ladyjacks have always been known for their defensive style of play, and the 2002-03 team was no exception. The Ladyjacks finished 29th in the nation, holding opponents to a .369 field-goal percentage. SFA was tied for fourth in the country, averaging 5.9 blocks per game. Senior post Amy Collins finished the season tied for third nationally with 3.3 blocks per game, on her way to setting the SFA single-season record (91).

Head Coach In Riley’s seven seasons, 20 Ladyjacks have been recognized by the conference for their success on the court, including five first-team selections. Former player LaToya Mills became the first Ladyjack to earn all-conference honors all four seasons. Riley has also coached a league player, league defensive player and league freshman of the year. Winning has followed Riley throughout her career. During the 2000-01 season, Riley was the associate head coach at Missouri. The Tigers tallied a 22-10 record and a 10-6 league mark on their way to the NCAA Championships. Missouri knocked-off second-seeded Georgia in Athens, Ga., to advance to the Sweet 16. Prior to her stop in Missouri, Riley was the head coach at Tyler Junior College. During her six seasons at Tyler, Riley’s teams amassed a record of 131-58 (.693), culminating in the 2000 NJCAA National Championship. That TJC squad compiled a record of 34-2 on its way to the title. Riley was named the NJCAA, Region XIV and the 2000 WBCA National Coach of the Year after her team’s run to the crown. Winning 15 games in her rookie season as a head coach, Riley only saw the win total increase every season. In her six seasons at TJC, Riley coached four junior college All-Americans, 12 all-region players, 19 allconference players and three Region XIV Freshmen of the Year. Riley also coached 31 players who continued their playing careers at four-year institutions. Riley’s athletes were the true definition of student-athletes, as 22 players received academic all-conference honors and three were named Academic All-American. Riley was honored for accomplishmets at TJC in June when she was inducted into the Tyler Junior College Circle of Honor. The winning tradition of the Ladyjack basketball program is nothing new to Riley. She spent two seasons in the 1990s with SFA, one as an aide under current-Texas A&M head coach Gary Blair. During those seasons, Riley helped guide the Ladyjacks to two SLC titles and one trip to the NCAA Sweet 16. Prior to Riley’s first stop in Nacogdoches, she spent one season as an assistant at

New Mexico State, helping guide the program to a 16-15 record. Riley began her coaching career as a graduate assistant at the school she would eventually lead to the 2000 NJCAA crown. She helped lead TJC to a 28-6 (.823) record during the 1990-91 season. In her 17 seasons on the bench, either as the head coach or as an assistant, Riley has been witness to more than 300 victories, with her teams compiling a 364-192 (.655) record. Along with her responsibilities, Riley also serves as a member on several national committees. She is currently a voter for the WBCA/USA Today Top 25 Poll, serves as a member of the NCAA Rules Committee and was a WBCA Conference Captain for the past five years. During Riley’s college days, she was a guard at TJC before transferring to Baylor, where she played on the Bears’ softball team for three seasons.

Sixth Season

Arkansas, 1997

Taqueta Braxton Taqueta Braxton is entering her sixth season as an assistant coach and recruiting coordinator with the Stephen F. Austin Ladyjack basketball program. Braxton has spent the first five years in Nacogdoches producing some of the Southland Conference’s top guards. Braxton continued to work her magic with the SFA guards last season. Sophomore Tammara Marion recorded one of the best seasons of all league freshmen in 2008-09. The Houston, Texas, native put her long-range shooting prowess on display throughout the season. Marion shot 38 percent from beyond the arc and recorded 42 threepointers on the season, despite missing three games with an injury. Former Ladyjack Nikki Carr became one of the most prolific players in school history under Braxton’s guidance. Carr finished her career as a first-team AllSouthland Conference selection, and the 2008 SLC Defensive Player of the Year. She also graduated as one of the school’s all-time leaders in points, assists, steals, threepoint field goals and free throws. Braxton spent the 2004-05 season helping transform then-juniors Britany Vinson and Kirby Killingsworth into two of the league’s better three-point shooters. The duo finished their careers as the most potent three-point shooting tandem in school history. Killingsworth graduated second all-time in school history with 168 three-point field goals, only 11 shy of owning the record. Right on her heels, Vinson finished third at SFA with 152 triples. Both athletes wrapped up their senior seasons earning thirdteam All-SLC honors. In 2006, Braxton helped develop another duo in point guards Nikki Carr and Anitria Mosley. Carr earned honorable mention all-conference recognition after a season that saw her among the team leaders in points (7.9 ppg), assists (3.1 apg) and steals (1.7 spg). Braxton helped turn Mosley from a timid freshman at the beginning of the season into a take-charge floor general that was a spark for SFA in its NCAA tournament game against Arizona State. Mosley finished that contest with 16 points, three assists and a steal. Braxton came to SFA from Beaumont, Texas, where she spent two seasons as an assistant at Lamar. During her time in Beaumont she was given the responsibility of helping LU rebuild the Lady Cardinal program. Braxton serves as the Ladyjacks recruiting coordinator, as well as assisting Riley in the day-to-day operations of the Ladyjack program. Braxton, formerly Taqueta Roberson, spent her college days at Arkansas as a player for former Ladyjack head coach Gary Blair. Braxton was a four-year letterwin-

ner for the Lady Razorbacks guiding them to an NCAA Tournament appearance. As a senior, Braxton was selected as the team captain and named to the Southeastern Conference’s Academic Honor Roll. Braxton received her bachelor’s degree in kinesiology from Arkansas in 1997. Following her playing career, Braxton became an assistant coach at Mesquite High School for three years. While at Mesquite, she helped guide the Skeeters to a district title. Taqueta married Lamont Braxton in December 2004, and the couple has a son, Aaron (1).

44 2009-10 Ladyjack Basketball

Game 1 @ Prairie View A&M

Game 2 vs. Houston Baptist

PRAIRIE VIEW, Texas - The Ladyjack basketball team placed four players in double-figures on Friday night, taking a wire-to-wire win over Prairie View A&M, 69-58, at the William Nicks Building. The win is the first seasonopening victory for SFA (1-0) under Lee Ann Riley and avenges last year’s loss to the Panthers (0-1), giving the Ladyjacks a 4-1 lead in the all-time series. Tammara Marion led the way for the Ladyjacks with 19 points, including 5-for-11 shooting from behind the threepoint arc, but it was the free throw shooting for SFA that really proved to be the difference. SFA was 26of-37 from the stripe compared to just 9-of-28 for the Panthers, led by 10 free throws from Whitney Cormier. Cormier finished with 12 points, with Jordan Ford also contributing 15 with eight rebounds and Ebony Alexander also finishing with 11 points including five free throws. It was Alexander that got the game going with a floater from the left side for SFA’s first bucket, a lead they never gave back. The Ladyjacks led by as much as 10 in the first half, and drew a pair of fouls in the first three minutes on reigning SWAC Player of the Year Candice Thomas to force her to the bench for the remainder of the half. Despite Thomas’ absence though, PVAMU pulled within point at 28-27 on a jumper by Dominique Smith, but Natashia Green answered with a three-pointer on the next possession as SFA went on a 7-0 run to close out the half and go in with a 35-27 lead. SFA then went to the free throw stripe 23 times in the second half, making 16 of them to keep PVAMU at arm’s length, primarily behind 13 points from Marion. The Panthers did not aide their cause much, only going 4-for-19 from the stripe in the second half. Once again SFA pushed its lead to double digits at 43-33 on a jumper by Ford, but the Panthers steadily clawed back to pull within three at 58-55, but that was as close as they got. SFA made nine free throws in the final minute, sandwiched around a key jumper by Marion to pull out the win.

NACOGDOCHES, Texas - SFA overcame a sluggish start to record an 82-72 victory over Houston Baptist at the William R. Johnson Coliseum, giving SFA consecutive victories to start the season. It marks the first 2-0 start by a Ladyjack team since the 2000-01 season. It wasn’t all smiles for head coach Lee Ann Riley’s troops who were coming off an impressive 69-58 win at Prairie View A&M. The Ladyjacks started the game shooting less than 30 percent from the floor, while the Huskies jumped out to a five-point lead, and led by four with 11 minutes remaining in the opening half. All that changed when the Ladyjacks dialed up the defensive pressure. Down by four, sophomore Jordan Ford sparked a 14-2 run by hitting a layup with 10:40 on the clock. She would finish the game with six points. The Ladyjacks took the lead and never looked back shooting 50 percent from the floor in the opening half, while holding their opponents to 13-of-34 (.382). Even though SFA never surrendered the lead, the second half came with some tense moments. The Huskies went on a 13-0 run midway through the second half to trim a 16-point lead down to three, 61-58. HBU’s Jelela Simpson led the charge with 18 points and 13 rebounds, but the Ladyjacks found an answer, and it came in the form of teamwork. The Ladyjacks broke the huddle and responded with a 10-0 run to build the lead back to 13 points. SFA maintained the advantage by spreading out the scoring. All but one player who entered the game scored, led by four players in double figures. Sophomore Ebony Alexander led the way with 15, while sophomore Whitney Cormier added 14 points and seven rebounds. Sophomore Chantol Drennan finished the game with 13 points and seven rebounds, while classmate Toni Davis scored 12 points and pulled down four boards despite fouling out in 17 minutes. SFA again was clutch from the free throw line connecting on 19of-25 (.760) free throws, while forcing the Huskies into 23 turnovers.

After freshman Tammara Marion knocked down the first field goal of the game, the Lady Bears responded by going on a 33-3 run to take a 33-5 lead. The Ladyjacks went nearly 14 minutes before scoring their next field goal. Sophomore Whitney Cormier connected on a 15-footer from the baseline to dent the scoreboard.

Game 4 vs. Tulsa

NACOGDOCHES,Texas - In a season of firsts for many on the SFA team, the youthful Ladyjacks recorded another against Tulsa. SFA responded to its first setback of the season by defeating Tulsa, 59-55 to improve to 3-1. It was a close back-n-forth affair that remained a close battle to the final buzzer. Tulsa utilized its height advantage to gain a 53-33 edge in rebounding. The Golden Hurricane used their height to gain a 30-10 advantage in terms of points in the paint. SFA may not have had an answer for Tulsa’s size, but the Ladyjacks’ speed and defensive intensity proved to be the great equalizer. With just over seven minutes remaining the Ladyjacks forced Tulsa into turnovers on threestraight possessions to build a nine-point lead with 5:34 remaining. Senior Jessica Gaines and sophomore Decreasha Goodner came off the bench to provide a huge spark. Gaines came in and sank a three-pointer and pulled down an offensive rebound. Goodner added 11 points, on 3-of3 shooting from beyond the arc, and also grabbed five rebounds. While the Ladyjack defense forced Tulsa into 23 turnovers which they converted into 16 points, the Golden Hurricane couldn’t account for the Ladyjacks’ depth. The Ladyjacks’ bench outscored Tulsa’s reserves, 34-18. Led by Larissa Williams’ 21 points and 14 rebounds, Tulsa made a late charge cutting the SFA lead from eight points down to three with 1:21 remaining, but SFA was able to put the game away at the free throw line.

Game 5 vs. Jacksonville State

MEMPHIS, Tenn. - SFA jumped out to a 7-0 lead and never trailed as they recorded a 61-51 victory over Jacksonville State in the opening round of the 24th Annual Piggly Wiggle Classic in Memphis, Tenn. The Ladyjacks improved to 4-1 (.800) on the season. Despite the Ladyjacks early lead, SFA couldn’t run and hide from a Gamecock team that was in search of its first victory of the season. SFA built big leads throughout the contest only to see Jacksonville State rally to keep it close. After falling behind by seven points, JSU rallied to cut the lead to one. The Ladyjacks responded by building the lead to nine points prior to the intermission. Neither team shot the ball particularly well in the opening half. SFA connected on only 11-of-38 (.289) shots, including an 0-of-9 performance from beyond the arc, while the Gamecocks were held to a 7-of-24 (.292) performance. While the Ladyjack offense was fighting to find its rhythm, the Ladyjack defense was picking up the slack. SFA forced the Gamecocks into 14 turnovers, and took a 30-16 rebounding edge into the locker room. SFA came out of the locker room with a six-point advantage, 28-22, and immediately increased its lead to double digits. SFA went up by 11 points when junior Whitney Cormier scored two of her six points with 16:09 remaining. JSU responded by cutting the lead to seven points behind Jolie Efezokhae’s 11 points and five rebounds. The Ladyjacks responded with a run of their own to push the lead up to 15 points. Behind improved shooting, maintaining defensive pressure and a senior who came off the bench to lead the team in scoring the Ladyjacks built their lead to as many as 19 points in the second half, and never allowed JSU to get closer than nine points for the rest of the contest. Senior Natashia Green came off the bench to provide a huge offensive spark. She led SFA with 12 points and seven rebounds. Freshman Tammara Marion added 10 points and three rebounds. The Ladyjacks finished the game 23-of-67 (.343) from the floor after shooting 41 percent in the second half. SFA held the Gamecocks to a 17-of-55 (.309) performance, while outrebounding JSU, 53-38.

Game 6 @ Memphis

MEMPHIS,Tenn. - Despite jumping out to a 9-0 lead, Memphis rallied for a 64-52 victory over Stephen F. Austin to win the 24th Annual Piggly Wiggly Classic. The loss dropped SFA to 4-2 on the season. The Ladyjacks got to a hot start over Memphis, knocking down four of their first five shots and took a nine-point lead, 9-0. The Ladyjacks’ defensive pressure caused Memphis a ton of problems in the opening half as the Tigers were held scoreless until the 13:33 mark, missing their first six shots. SFA also forced Memphis into 14 first-half turnovers which SFA converted into 10 points. While the Memphis offense was sputtering, the Ladyjacks spent the majority of the half over 40 percent, before Memphis rallied late in the half to cut the lead to two points. Junior Whitney Cormier hit one of two free throws with 8.3 seconds remaining in the half to give SFA a three-point advantage heading into the locker room. Memphis opened the second half on a 4-0 run to claim their first lead of the game less than a minute into the final 20 minutes of action. The Lady Tigers connected on 10 of their first 14 shots in the second half to build a nine-point advantage, 51-42, with 7:16 remaining. Memphis’ Paris Leonard led the charge with her game-high 21 points. While the Lady Tigers improved their shooting in the second half finishing the game at 37 percent, SFA finished the night 17-for-51 (.333). Cormier led SFA with 16 points and nine rebounds, while freshman Tammara Marion scored 10 points. Cormier, along with senior Natashia Green, was named to the all-tournament team.

Game 7 vs. #4 Texas A&M

NACOGDOCHES, Texas - There were many story lines entering the game between SFA and No. 5 (ESPN/USA Today Top 25 poll) Texas A&M: former SFA head coach Gary Blair returning to Nacogdoches with his Aggies, Blair’s induction into the Ladyjack Hall of Fame, current SFA head coach Lee Ann Riley going up against her former mentor, and Ladyjack assistant coach Taqueta Braxton coaching against her former coach from their time at Arkansas together. But in the end, the fourth-ranked Aggies stole all the headlines by recording a 77-36 victory to drop SFA to 4-3 on the season, while Texas A&M remained undefeated, 7-0. The Aggies scored the games’ first eight points, and never trailed in the contest, but that stat by itself is misleading. The Ladyjacks had their way defensively against one of the nation’s top teams forcing Texas A&M into 13 firsthalf turnovers, and only being outrebounded by one, 18-17. Unfortunately for the Ladyjacks when they did something good on the defensive end, they were unable to cash in offensively. SFA was only able to convert the 13 turnovers with into five first-half points, and among 11 first-half offensive rebounds SFA could only muster eight second-chance points. A&M built its lead to as many as 24 points in the first half before taking a 33-12 lead into the locker room. The Aggies connected on 12-of-21 (.571) shots in the opening half, while holding the Ladyjacks to a 16-percent clip. SFA picked up the offense in the second half knocking down 8-of-22 (.364) shots, but they couldn’t slow down the Aggies who shot 51.5 percent in the second half due in large part to their success in the low post. Texas A&M finished the game with a 38-18 advantage points in the paint. The lone offensive spark for SFA was senior guard Natashia Green. The Lancaster, Texas, native finished the night with a team-high 12 points. The Aggies were led by Adaora Elonu’s 17 points and six rebounds.

Game 8 @ Grambling State

GRAMBLING, La. - A Rachelle Dobbins three-pointer from 38-feet away with eight seconds on the clock was the deciding factor in a 65-64 win for Grambling State win over Stephen F. Austin at the Assembly Center. The loss dropped SFA to 4-4 (.500) on the year while Grambling State improved to 1-4 (.200). The Ladyjacks held Grambling to under 30-percent shooting all night, but it was SFA’s inability to hold on the basketball that hurt them in the end. SFA turned the ball over 26 times, which Grambling State converted into 25 points. SFA also out rebounded Grambling by eight, 48-40, but it was Grambling State that finished the game with a three-point advantage in second-chance points. The Ladyjacks finished the night 21-25 (38.2 percent) from the floor and were led by three players in double figures. Natashia Green led the way with 18 points and six rebounds, while freshman Tammara Marion had 17 points andfive rebounds. Sophomore Ebony Alexander contributed 11 points and pulled down seven rebounds. Dobbins finished the night with 15 points for Grambling State, but the Lady Tigers were led by Whitney Brown who had 16 points and eight rebounds.

Game 9 vs. New Orleans

The Tigers jumped out of the gate quickly connecting on their first four field-goal attempts, building a 14-0 lead before SFA could score its first bucket. While Auburn was off to a quick start, SFA struggled early on missing its four shots and connecting on only 2-of-its-first-9. Freshman Tammara Marion hit a three-pointer from the top of the key to put SFA on the board, 14-3, with 15:43 remaining. The Tigers never cooled off in the first half connecting on 9-oftheir-first-11 attempts, and finished the half shooting 17-of-30 (.567) from the floor.

The Tigers used their height advantage to take a 19-11 lead on the glass in the opening half.

The Ladyjacks started the second half connecting on its first two possessions, and forcing Auburn into a turnover. SFA trimmed the lead to 11 points early in the half, and were able to keep the Tigers within striking distance for the first 10 minutes of the half, before Auburn started to pull away due to its advantage on the glass.

50 2009-10 Ladyjack Basketball

Game 13 @ Sam Houston St.

HUNTSVILLE, Texas - Despite a double-double from junior Whitney Cormier (16 points, and 13 rebounds), SFA dropped a 68-65 decision to Sam Houston State. The Ladyjacks are now 5-8 on the season, and 0-1 in Southland Conference play. The Ladyjacks appeared to be cruising to a conference opening victory, leading by 14 points with 12:54 remaining, but that is when the Bearkats got hot. SHSU outscored the Ladyjacks, 30-13, in the final 12:54 of the contest. The Bearkats jumped out to an early five-point lead, 17-12, behind a quick offensive start. SHSU connected on 6-of-their-first-10 shots to take the advantage. But the Ladyjacks went to work on the glass outrebounding SHSU, 28-22, in the opening half to take their first lead of the game, 18-16, with 11:34 remaining in the contest. The Ladyjacks gathered 12 of their rebounds on the offensive end. SFA shot 37 percent in the opening half, and took an eightpoint advantage, 38-30, into the locker room. Despite shooting 40 percent in the half, the game seemed to be slipping away from the Bearkats. SFA led by one with three minutes in the half but outscored Sam Houston State, 8-1, heading into the intermission. The Ladyjacks came out in the second half and appeared to take complete control pushing their advantage to 14 points. The Bearkats then began to attack the glass pulling down nine of the 13 offensive rebounds in the second half. Led by some hot three-point shooting in second half, including a 3-of-7 performance from the Bearkats’ Leasa Ailshie, the Bearkats cut the lead to one, 6160, with 2:41 remaining. But two free throws by SHSU’s Therese Hager and consecutive layups by Brittany Brooks and the Bearkats took the lead for good. Sophomore Jordan Ford scored 14 points and pulled down nine rebounds. Freshman Tammara Marion finished the game with eight points and six rebounds, while classmate Amina Sawyer had three points and seven rebounds.

Game 14 vs. Central Arkansas

NACOGDOCHES, Texas - Junior Whitney Cormier recorded a career-high 24 points and pulled down seven rebounds to lead the SFA to a 76-66 victory over Central Arkansas. The Ladyjacks moved to 6-8 on the season, and 1-1 in conference play. The victory also snaps a fourgame slide that saw SFA drop seven of its last eight games heading into Wednesday night’s showdown with the Sugar Bears. UCA jumped out to a quick start knocking down 5-of-its-first-7 shots to take an early three-point lead, 15-12 with 13:34 remaining. But the Ladyjack offense got out to a strong start as well, knocking down 3-of-their-first-five shots. SFA settled down and the first half turned into a tug-o-war that saw four ties, and 14 lead changes. The Ladyjacks were able to build a sixpoint lead late in the half, and took a 42-37 lead into the locker room. The two teams torched the nets in the opening half as UCA was 13-of-26 (.500), while the Ladyjacks knocked down 15-of-27 (.556) shots in the first 20 minutes. Cormier, and sophomore Jordan Ford, both of whom have recorded back-to-back double-digit efforts, sparked the SFA offense. Cormier scored 12 points in the first half, while Ford recorded eight of her 11 in the opening 20 minutes. The tug-o-war theme continued for the first 11 minutes of the second half. The Ladyjacks maintained the advantage, but were unable to shake the Sugar Bears until SFA went on a 13-2 run to push a three-point lead into a 14-point advantage with 3:43 remaining. With UCA’s leading scorer, Chorcelle Taylor (22 points), fouling out of the game, the Sugar Bears had no answer offensively and fell to 0-2 in conference play. The Ladyjacks maintained their strong shooting in the second half finishing the game with a seasonhigh 28-for-55 (50.9 percent), while the Sugar Bears fell off the pace, 24-of-51 (.471). SFA’s bench was also huge outscoring Central Arkansas’ reserves, 33-11. Senior Natashia Green was the Ladyjacks’ trump card off the bench scoring 11 points and pulling down three rebounds. Sophomore Ebony Alexander added nine points, and a team-high five assists, while classmate Chantol Drennan scored seven points and pulled down six rebounds.

Game 15 @ Nicholls

THIBODAUX, La. - The Stephen F. Austin Ladyjack basketball recorded a 92-56 victory over Nicholls State to improve to 7-8 overall, and 2-1 in Southland Conference play. SFA jumped to a 15-point first half lead, 19-4, behind some tough defensive pressure. The Ladyjacks forced NSU into 12 turnovers in the first eight minutes of the game to build their advantage. SFA kept up the pressure increasing their lead to 21, 32-11, with 7:50 remaining. The Ladyjacks forced NSU into 23 first half turnovers, and took a 4926 lead into the locker room.

The Ladyjacks had a huge advantage in the low post outscoring NSU, 26-4, in the paint, and 14-0 on secondchance points. The Ladyjack bench was also key in the first-half run outscoring the Colonels’ reserves, 27-5. SFA was led by junior Whitney Cormier who was one of three Ladyjacks to score eight points in the opening half. Sophomore Decreasha Goodner added eight points, while freshman Amina Sawyer chipped in eight and pulled down five rebounds in the opening 20 minutes. Nicholls came out of the locker room with a spark cutting the SFA lead to 15, but the Ladyjacks didn’t allow NSU to get any closer. SFA shot 42 percent from the floor, and outrebounded their hosts by 21 in pushing their advantage to 30 points. The Colonels turned the ball over 33 times which SFA converted into 38 points.

Game 16 vs. Texas-Arlington

NACOGDOCHES, Texas - SFA and Texas-Arlington were two of eight SLC teams that entered Wednesday night tied for first place in the league standings. After the dust settled, it was the Lady Mavs that clung to a 76-65 decision. The setback dropped SFA to 7-9 on the season, and 2-2 in league play. After knocking down their first two shots, and taking a 5-0 lead, the Ladyjacks responded by going on a 22-7 run to take a 10-point lead with 11:25 remaining in the half. Although it would be the largest lead of the game until the final 23 seconds, it didn’t last very long. UTA methodically chipped away at the Ladyjack advantage with clutch shooting. The Lady Mavs connected on 19-of-34 (.559) of their shots in the first half, including a 4-of-7 (.571) clip from beyond the arc. While the Lady Mavs’ Shalyn Martin and Candice Champion struggled offensively early, UTA’s Meghan Nelson more than picked up the slack scoring 15 of her game-high 23 points in the first 20 minutes. The Lady Mavs took a 42-38 lead into the locker room. UTA scored the first bucket of the half, but the Ladyjacks immediately retaliated cutting the lead to a point. The game remained close throughout the second half due in large part to senior Natashia Green who came off the bench to score a team-high 18 points. SFA seemed poised to make a run and reclaim the lead but momentum was handed to TexasArlington due in large part to two SFA technical fouls within a 3:13 time span. The Lady Mavs sank 3-of-the-4 foul shots, and pushed a one-point lead to seven-point with 12:08 remaining. UTA never gave away the lead after that and eventually pushed its lead to double digits. Freshman Tammara Marion finished the game with 12 points, while sophomore Jordan Ford added 10 points and three rebounds. Freshman Amina Sawyer recorded six points and a team-high eight rebounds. Champion finished the night with 22 points and eight rebounds for UTA, while Erin Dixon added seven points and 11 rebounds.

52 2009-10 Ladyjack Basketball

Game 17 vs. SE Louisiana

NACOGDOCHES, Texas - Junior Whitney Cormier scored 17 points to lead SFA to a thrilling 69-66 victory over Southeastern Louisiana at the William R. Johnson Coliseum. The Ladyjacks improved to 8-9 on the season and remained only a half game back of Northwestern State for the SLC East lead at 2-2. The Ladyjacks jumped out of the gates quickly hitting their first four shots to build an 8-0 advantage, but Ladyjack fans were not allowed to sit back and get comfortable. The Lady Lions immediately clawed their way back into the contest behind a barrage of three-pointers led by Chelsea Hix and Quantae Thomas. After falling behind eight to start the game, SLU rattled off a 12-2 run to claim their first lead, 12-10, with just over 13 minutes remaining in the half. The game would remain close for the rest of the half as lead changed hands 10 times, along with seven ties. SFA took a three-point lead, 38-35, into the locker room. SFA maintained a 10-point advantage in points in the paint at halftime, and out-rebounded its opponent by five, 19-14. Southeastern hung close due their ability to score from beyond the arc. The Lady Lions knocked down 7-of-16 (.438) three-pointers in the first half, but SFA countered by going nearly perfect at the free throw line, 9-of-10. The second half was almost a mirror image of the first. The Ladyjacks stormed out to an 11-point lead, and right when the game looked like it was on the brink of being a blowout SLU battled right back. The Lady Lions once again used the three to get back into the contest as Kristy Carlin and Charinee Mitchell each hit a triple to cut the lead to two points, 65-63, with less than three minutes remaining. But Cormier and company wouldn’t allow the Lions to get any closer. Cormier got fouled and hit 1-of-2. SFA got the ball back off the miss and Cormier again attacked the glass driving to the bucket for an uncontested layup. Sophomore Jordan Ford scored nine points and pulled down seven rebounds, while senior Natashia Green came off the bench to chip in eight. The Lady Lions were led by Carlin who scored 19 points. Hix added 15 points on 5-of-10 (.500) shooting from beyond the arc.

Game 18 @ Northwestern St.

NATCHITOCHES, La. - The Northwestern State Lady Demons jumped out to a 19-point lead, and were able to hold off Stephen F. Austin at Prather Coliseum in Natchitoches, La. Northwestern State defeated SFA, 76-69, dropping the Ladyjacks to 8-10 on the season, 3-3 in Southland Conference play. Lady Demons started the game hitting on 10-of-14, and built a 23-4 lead, while SFA sputtered to a 2-of-12 start and turned the basketball over eight times. But after two SFA timeouts, the Ladyjacks settled down and slowly began to chip away at the Northwestern State lead. SFA scored 11 straight, including nine of those points coming from the free throw line, to cut the lead to nine. SFA’s strength at the free throw line in the first half, 12-of-15 (80 percent), helped keep SFA in the game until the offense could get warmed up. The Ladyjacks cut the lead down to three points behind sophomore Whitney Cormier’s eight first-half points and five rebounds. But the Lady Demons closed the half on a flurry to take a 10-point lead into the intermission, 40-30. SFA finished the half 9-of-31 (.290) from the floor, while the Lady Demons cooled off, but still went into the locker room shooting 50 percent (14-of-28). SFA took a small advantage into the locker room on the glass, 23-19. Lady Demons opened the second half on a 7-3 run to push lead back to 14 points. But the Ladyjacks rallied to cut the lead down to one point, 66-65, with 2:36 remaining. SFA had the ball with an opportunity to take their first lead but couldn’t convert, and the Lady Demons never surrendered the lead. SFA had five players finish in double figures led by Cormier’s 14 points and 13 rebounds. Sophomore Ebony Alexander added 14 points and five rebounds.

Game 19 vs. McNeese State

NACOGDOCHES, Texas SFA got 14 points from junior Whitney Cormier and sophomore Decreasha Goodner to defeat McNeese State, 55-50, Saturday afternoon. The Ladyjacks are now 9-10 on the season, and 4-3 in Southland Conference play. Despite shooting only 31 percent for the game, which included a 1-of-10 performance from beyond the arc, SFA was able to record a five-point victory. Throw into the equation that SFA also played the game without the services of leading scorer Tammara Marion, it really had to lean on its defense, and the “D” came through. SFA forced the Cowgirls into 14 first-half turnovers which SFA converted into 12 points. It was that defense that allowed SFA to take a two-point advantage into the locker room. McNeese State shot 8-of-20 (.400) from the floor in the first half, and out-rebounded SFA, 18-13, but only took two three-pointers. The Cowgirls entered the game shooting 36 percent from beyond the arc, but didn’t look for the long-range shot until the second half. The Cowgirls came out of the locker room with the momentum, building their largest lead of the game, 34-28, with 15:45 remaining. With the McNeese State on the verge of taking control of the game, SFA put a stop to the rally by rattling off a 14-3 run to reclaim the advantage. SFA reclaimed a five-point lead, 42-37, with 4:11 remaining. The Ladyjacks were able to push their lead to as many as nine points late in the contest, and it came down to SFA hitting its free throws. In a complete role-reversal from the game Wednesday night in Natchitoches, La., the Ladyjacks went 10-of-12 from the stripe to put the game on ice. Freshman Schera Sampson came off the bench to score eight points, and pull down four rebounds. Cormier finished the game with a team-high 12 rebounds. Senior Natashia Green struggled going 0-for-12 from the floor, but was huge on the glass pulling down six rebounds.

Game 20 vs. Nicholls

NACOGDOCHES, Texas - SFA got 20 points and nine rebounds from junior Whitney Cormier as SFA held on to beat Nicholls, 60-55, at the William R. Johnson Coliseum. The Ladyjacks moved to 10-10 on the season, and 5-3 in Southland Conference play. The Colonels, showing no shades of the team that got beat by 36 points in Thibodaux, La., earlier this season, jumped out of the gate knocking down 4-of-theirfirst-5 jumpers to take an early two-point advantage. Nicholls was able to push its advantage to as many as seven points, 22-15, before SFA settled down. The Ladyjacks’ defense finally began to have an effect on Nicholls, forcing the Colonels into 17 first-half turnovers. SFA utilized the opportunities to retake the lead 31-30, with 2:15 remaining in the half. The Colonels scored the final four points in the half to take a four-point lead into the locker room. The Colonels recorded one of their better shooting halves of the season going 16-for-27 (.593), and out-rebounded SFA by three in the opening 20 minutes. Despite its struggles, SFA still managed a 42-perent clip in the first half behind Cormier’s 12 first-half points. The game remained close for the first 16:34 of the second half, until sophomore Ebony Alexander drilled a three from the left corner to give SFA a four-point advantage. The Ladyjacks would tack on a bucket by Cormier and sophomore Jordan Ford to take its biggest lead of the game, 56-48, with only 1:19 to play. The Ladyjacks iced the game at the free throw line hitting their final four attempts for the victory. Nicholls’ Christie Bryant hit a three at the buzzer for the final score. Both teams cooled off in the second half shooting below 30 percent. SFA finished the game 21-of-58 (.362), while the Colonels were 24-of-55 (.436). SFA outrebounded Nicholls by four, 39-35, and forced the Colonels into 29 turnovers. Sophomore Toni Davis joined Cormier in double figures with 14 points, and six rebounds. Ford and Alexander each chipped in nine. The Colonels finished the game with three players in double figures, led by Bryant’s 16 points, but she also turned the ball over 12 times.

Game 23 at McNeese State

LAKE CHARLES, La. - Junior Whitney Cormier scored 19 of her game-high 23 points in the second half as Stephen F. Austin recorded a 67-56 victory at McNeese State Saturday afternoon in the Burton Coliseum. The victory moves SFA to 12-11 on the season, and 7-4 in Southland Conference play. The Ladyjacks took the early lead in the game building a double-digit advantage in the first half. SFA was able to push that lead to 13 points behind strong first-half play from sophomore Chantol Drennan. The 6-1, sophomore from Bedford, Texas, came off the bench to score 10 points on 3-of-7 shooting, including a perfect 4-of-4 from the free throw line. The Ladyjacks led by 13, with 5:03 remaining in the contest. McNeese State managed to cut the lead to eight points, and get the ball back, but the Ladyjacks’ defense didn’t allow the Cowgirls any extended runs forcing the Cowgirls into 11 first-half turnovers. SFA also took advantage of its free throws in the opening half connecting on 10-of-11 (91 percent) attempts. The Ladyjacks led by as many as 11 in the second half when the Cowgirls went on a 12-3 run to cut the lead to two points, 50-48, with 8:25 remaining. The Cowgirls had two opportunities to tie the game, but SFA rattled off a run of its own to reclaim advantage of the game. Aided by a technical foul against the Cowgirl bench, SFA went on a 15-3 run to take a 14 point lead, 65-51, with only 3:46 remaining. After scoring only four points in the opening 20 minutes, Cormier took over in the second half. Cormier, who entered the game averaging just under 17 points over the course of the team’s last six games, dropped in 19 in the final stanza to finish the game with 23. The Cowgirls never threatened down the stretch as the Ladyjacks held on for the double-digit win. SFA finished the game 21-of-60 (.350), while the Cowgirls were 17-of-53 (.321). The Ladyjacks also managed to prevent the league’s second-leading scorer, Shante Perry, from being a factor in the game. Perry finished the day with nine points on 3-of-16 shooting. The Cowgirls were led by Kendra Wells who had 13 points and 15 rebounds.

Game 24 at SE Louisiana

HAMMOND, La. - Junior Whitney Cormier buried a three-pointer with 18 seconds remaining to give Stephen F. Austin a four-point lead, and eventually the victory over Southeastern Louisiana.

The Ladyjacks jumped to an 11-point lead, 14-3, after knocking down their first six field goal attempts. While SFA started quickly the Ladyjacks missed 6-of-theirfirst-seven attempts. The Ladyjacks pushed their advantage to as many as 16 points in the opening half. SFA connected on 12-of-26 (46.2 percent) in the first half, while holding the Lady Lions to only seven field goals. Southeastern Louisiana shot 21 percent from the floor in the first 20 minutes, and connected on only one three-pointer, 1-of-12. SFA took a 13-point lead into the locker room. SFA hit 3-of-its-first-5 to build an 18-point second-half lead, 42-24, with 14:40 remaining. The Ladyjacks appeared to cruising to an easy victory, but the Lady Lions mounted a huge rally late in the game. SLU rattled off a 14-2 in the final 6:30 minutes to cut the lead to one, 58-57, with only 45 seconds remaining, but that’s when Cormier stepped up to play the role of hero. Cormier buried the three, and also tacked on two free throws for the final score. Cormier finished the game with 18 points, while freshman Tammara Marion added 12 points. Sophomore Jordan Ford knocked down her first three attempts of the season, and finished the game with 10 points. Kristy Carlin led SLU with 15 points.

Game 25 at Texas State

SAN MARCOS, Texas - Texas State used a strong second-half shooting performance to pull away from Stephen F. Austin Wednesday night at Strahan Coliseum in San Marcos, Texas. The Bobcats recorded a 73-60 victory, dropping SFA to 13-12 on the season and 8-5 in league play. The Ladyjacks knocked down 4-of-their-first-8 shots to take an early lead in the contest, but Texas State was able to take advantage of some Ladyjack miscues to steal the momentum. SFA went through a 10-possession stretch where they turned the ball over six times, including three consecutive trips down the floor. SFA also missed two shots during that stretch allowing Texas State to build an eight-point lead. The Ladyjacks would rally to reclaim the advantage on an Ebony Alexander three-pointer to take a 31-30 lead. But the Bobcats would answer with a Gabrielle Mattox three right before the break to take a two-point lead into the locker room. The first couple of minutes in the second half saw Texas State take a four-point lead only to see SFA battle right back to tie the game. The Bobcats led by two, 39-37, when they rattled off a 17-7 run to take a 12-point lead, 54-42. The Bobcats came out of the locker room and connected on 15-of-their-first-20 (75 percent) shots in the second half to build the double-digit lead. Texas State also made SFA pay for its turnovers. The Ladyjacks turned the ball over 16 times, which Texas State converted into 24 points, while SFA scored only 12 points from 15 Bobcat turnovers. SFA out-rebounded Texas State, 38-33, but the Bobcats finished the game 32-of-65 (.492), including a 62-percent performance in the second half. The Ladyjacks finished the night 25-of-69 (.362). Junior Whitney Cormier led SFA with 16 points, while freshman Amina Sawyer added 10 points. Sophomore Decreasha Goodner added three, and pulled down nine rebounds. Mattox and Victoria Davis led Texas State with 21 points.

Game 26 vs. A&M-Corpus Christi

NACOGDOCHES, Texas - The final outcome of the Stephen F. Austin/ Texas A&M-Corpus Christi game was not in doubt for very long as the Ladyjacks cruised to a 33-point victory, 87-54, Saturday night in the William R. Johnson Coliseum. The Ladyjacks improved to 14-12 on the season, and 9-5 Southland Conference play, and keep pace with Southeastern Louisiana for the top spot in the league’s east division. The game was close for about the first 5:30 minutes, until Lee Ann Riley’s troops turned up the defensive intensity in a way they hadn’t done all season. The Ladyjacks went on a 17-4 run over the next 6:37 of the game to take a 16-point lead and never looked back. The Ladyjacks forced Texas A&M-Corpus Christi into 24 firsthalf turnovers, and converted the mistakes into 24 points. SFA took a 35-20 lead into the locker room. Led by freshman Schera Sampson’s 16 points, and an SFA defense that recorded 18 steals, the Ladyjacks pushed their lead to as many as 38 in the second half, 62-24, with just under 11 minutes remaining. The Islanders went on a mini run to cut the deficit back to respectability, but never seriously threatened SFA in the second half. The Ladyjacks shot 46 percent for the game, including a 54-percent clip in the second half, while holding the Islanders to 37 percent. The Ladyjacks dominated their visitors in several key areas of the game. SFA outscored Texas A&MCorpus Christi 40-16 in the paint, and turned 37 Islander turnovers into 44 points. The most telling stat of the game was the Ladyjacks’ reserves who scored 55 of the team’s 57 points. Three Ladyjacks finished the game in double figures, and all but one player scored for SFA. Along with Sampson’s 16 points, freshman Tammara Marion added 21 and sophomore Chantol Drennan chipped in 11. The Ladyjacks had 10 players who scored at least six points, and five who scored at least eight. The Islanders were led by Shaye Montgomery’s 12 points.

Game 27 at Central Arkansas

CONWAY, Ark. - The Stephen F. Austin Ladyjacks used a late first-half run to pull away from Central Arkansas and coast to a 78-46 victory Wednesday evening in Conway, Ark. The Ladyjacks improved 15-12 on the season, and 10-5 in conference play. “I was proud of how we started the game,” said head coach Lee Ann Riley. “We came out with a lot of intensity. I thought we hit some lulls, but we were able to battle our way through them. Our bench was a key in this game. They scored 37 points tonight, and that is going to be important as we head into the Southland Conference tournament.” The first half was a game of runs as the Ladyjacks jumped out a 7-0 lead, only to have UCA go on a 10-4 run to cut that lead down to a single point. The Ladyjacks were able to push that lead back to nine points behind consecutive threepointers from freshman Tammara Marion. The Ladyjacks closed the half on a run to take an 18-point lead, 40-22, into the locker room. The Ladyjacks were 14-of-31 (.452) from the floor in the opening half, while UCA was held to a 7-of-28 (.250) performance. The Ladyjacks did a good job of hanging onto the basketball committing only six first-half turnovers. SFA forced its hosts into 10 turnovers, and converted the miscues into 13 points. The Ladyjacks also got 17 points from its bench in the opening 20 minutes. The Ladyjacks pushed their lead to 26 early in the second half, and never looked back. SFA shot 27-of-61 (.443) from the floor while holding the Sugar Bears to a 29.6-percent clip. The Ladyjacks also out-rebounded UCA, 43-38. The Ladyjacks had four players in double figures led by junior Whitney Cormier who finished the night with 14 points and eight rebounds. Sophomore Jordan Ford and freshman Schera Sampson each added 12, while sophomore Ebony Alexander scored 11.

Whitney Cormier 2009 First-Team All-SLC

58 2009-10 Ladyjack Basketball

KATY, Texas - Sophomore Ebony Alexander scored a team-high 15 points, all coming in the final 4:30 of the contest, but it wasn’t enough to overcome Lamar in the first round of the 2009 State Farm SLC Championships. SFA dropped a 76-64 decision, ending the season 15-14 (.517) overall. The Ladyjacks and Lady Cardinals made history before they even stepped on the court, because it marked the first time in SLC tournament history that the same two teams have opened tournament play in four consecutive seasons. In a start that was eerily similar to the 2008 SLC tournament game, the Ladyjacks struggled in the opening half shooting only 31 percent, while Lamar took advantage building an eight-point lead heading into half time. Lamar appeared to be on the verge of breaking the game open early in the second half building a 19-point lead, but the Ladyjacks responded by knocking down consecutive layups to cut the lead to 13, 50-37, with just over 10 minutes remaining. SFA then picked up the intensity on defense holding Lamar scoreless over the next 6:32 of the game. Unfortunately, SFA was unable to take advantage of the LU dry spell, because the Ladyjacks would be unable to score another point over the next 4:08 of the contest. Freshman Tammara Marion broke the SFA dry spell with a three-pointer at the 5:59 mark to cut the lead back to 16 points. Marion finished the game with 13 points. LU once again led by 20 when SFA recorded one of its more impressive comebacks of the season. Led by Alexander’s aerial assault, the Ladyjacks quickly reduced a 20-point deficit down to seven by knocking down 5-of-7 threepointers over a 3:46 time span. But Lamar didn’t allow the Ladyjacks to get any closer by taking care of business at the free throw line. The Lady Cardinals closed out the game knocking down 13-of-14 attempts from the free throw line. Along with Alexander and Marion’s double-figure performance, sophomore Jordan Ford added 10 points and nine rebounds. SFA finished the game shooting only 35 percent from the floor, but out-rebounded Lamar, 45-40.

The Southland Conference In an era of considerable change in intercollegiate athletics, the Southland Conference continues to be a model of innovation, stability and consistent achievement as it celebrates the academic and athletic accomplishments of its member institutions. What began as a small gathering of college administrators over 45 years ago, the SLC has transformed itself into a dynamic and respected consortium of 12 member universities in three states. Beginning with a historic meeting of five institutions in Dallas on March 15, 1963, that included current members Lamar and TexasArlington, the SLC set on an extraordinary course that has proven successful well into its fifth decade of existence. On July 1, 2006, the SLC commemorated another milestone as the league membership reached 12, marking the largest configuration ever for the organization. The addition of Central Arkansas and Texas A&M-Corpus Christi expanded the league into the Little Rock metro area and into the eighth largest city in Texas. In addition to its two newest members, the SLC lineup also consists of Lamar, McNeese State, Nicholls, Northwestern State, Sam Houston State, Southeastern Louisiana, Stephen F. Austin, Texas-Arlington, TexasSan Antonio, and Texas State. All told, the revised membership of the conference encompasses over 160,000 current students and an alumni base of approximately 700,000. The cities of the Southland are diverse and progressive, ranging from international business and cultural centers such as the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex, San Antonio and the New Orleans area, to the historical cities of Nacogdoches, Texas, and Natchitoches, La., to the home of the modern oil boom, Beaumont, Texas, to the unique Cajun French cultures found in the Louisiana cities of Thibodaux and Lake Charles. Southland Conference institutions also draw large numbers of students from the metropolitan areas of Houston, Little Rock, Baton Rouge, Austin and Shreveport. The SLC sponsors 17 championship sports, all at the NCAA Division I level. The eight men’s sports include football, basketball, baseball, golf, tennis, cross country, and indoor and outdoor track and field. The women compete for nine

championships in basketball, volleyball, softball, soccer, golf, tennis, cross country, and indoor and outdoor track and field. The conference earns automatic qualification to NCAA championships in football, men’s and women’s basketball, baseball, softball, volleyball, men’s golf, men’s and women’s Tom Burnett tennis, women’s soccer, men’s and women’s Commissioner outdoor track and field, and men’s and women’s cross country. The conference has seen a deal of success in all of its sponsored sports, including women’s basketball. Former league member UL-Monroe advanced to the 1985 NCAA Women’s Final Four, while Stephen F. Austin has sustained itself as one of the most successful programs in the history of the sport. In 2008, the Ladyjacks became only the sixth program in NCAA Division I history to record over 800 wins, joining Tennessee, Louisiana Tech, Old Dominion, Texas and James Madison. Women’s basketball all-stars have Jack Key included Eun Jung Lee, Lisa Ingram, Portia Assoc. Commissioner/ Hill, Deneen Parker, Katrina Price, and Chief Financial Officer Joskeen Garner, and coaches such as Gary Blair, Linda Sharp, James Smith and Linda Harper. The SLC has repeatedly demonstrated its commitment to the academic and athletic success of its studentathletes. With the F.L. McDonald Postgraduate Scholarship Award, the league annually honors one male and one female scholar-athlete with a stipend for postgraduate study. The Scholar-Athlete Award is given to each institution’s male Stephanie McDonald and female student-athlete with the highest Assoc. Commissioner/ grade-point average. Compliance Also, student-athletes with grade point averages above 3.0 are honored on the SLC’s annual All-Academic teams and Commissioner’s Honor Roll. In addition to providing expanding opportunities for student-athletes, the SLC and its member institutions are very involved in various community outreach programs. Many of these programs provide positive life skills training such as academics, citizenship and leadership to school-aged students in Southland communities. The Steve McCarty Citizenship Award, initiated in 2005-06 and named after the former Stephen F. Austin athletic director, properly recognizes Todd Lamb Director of accomplishments off the court for a male Media Services and female student-athlete.

2009-10 Ladyjack Basketball

On Saturday, Jan. 26, 2008, the Stephen F. Austin Ladyjack basketball team became the sixth member of a very elite club. The Ladyjacks defeated rival Sam Houston State, 73-40, to join Tennessee, Louisiana Tech, Old Dominion, Texas and James Madison as the only schools to win 800 games. To make the day even more memorable, several former players were on hand to honor the late Sue Gunter as part of the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sue Gunter Dayâ&#x20AC;? festivities. At halftime of the game, SFA renamed the basketball offices, the Sue Gunter Ladyjack Basketball Office Suite, to honor the legendary head coach.

Saturday, Jan. 26, 2008, will go down as one of the memorable days in Ladyjack basketball history. Many Ladyjack fans, former players, and hall of fame head coaches, such as Jody Conradt and Leon Barmore, were on hand to honor legendary head coach Sue Gunter. Along with Conradt and Barmore, former Ladyjack All-Americans Barbara Brown and Rosie Walker were special guest speakers at the “Sue Gunter Day” luncheon. At halftime of the Ladyjack basketball game, SFA dedicated the Sue Gunter Ladyjack Basketball Suite in her honor. But the biggest honor of the evening may have come from the 200708 Ladyjack basketball team. SFA defeated rival Sam Houston State, to record the program’s 800th win, becoming only the sixth school in NCAA women’s basketball history to accomplish the feat.

Hall of Fame

Sue Gunter 2000 Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame 2005 Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame Sue Gunter spent 15 seasons in Nacogdoches as the SFA Ladyjacks head basketball coach. During that time she posted a 266-88 (.751) overall record. The 266 wins stand as the most for any Ladyjack head coach. She also guided the Ladyjacks to five AIAW national tournaments (1972, 1973, 1976, 1978 and 1980). Gunter’s teams also won four state titles (1974, 1977, 1979 and 1980). Gunter’s coaching abilities went beyond the college game and onto the international scene, where she coached the U.S. National team in 1976, 1978 and 1980. She served as an assistant coach on the 1976 U.S. Olympic silver medal team before being named head coach of the 1980 U.S. Olympic team. Gunter also served on the U.S. Olympic Committee and the Amateur Basketball Association. Gunter took over the LSU women’s basketball program in 1982-83 where she continued her dominance as a coach. In her 22 seasons with the Tigers, she guided LSU to 13 NCAA tournament appearances, seven NCAA Sweet 16

appearances, three NCAA Elite Eights, three WNIT postseason tournaments, one WNIT Championship and an SEC co-title. She was also twice named SEC Coach of the Year. Gunter reached the 20-win plateau 14 times in Baton Rouge. Despite Gunter not being able to finish the season, her 2003-04 team advanced to the NCAA’s Final Four. In her 40 seasons as a head coach, Gunter won 708 games between her stops at Middle Tennessee State, SFA and LSU. She retired from the game of basketball in 2004 as one of the true legends of the game. Gunter’s 708 all-time victories make her the third all-time winningest coach. Gunter completed her career among the leaders in several NCAA coaching categories: seasons coached (No. 1 - 40); games coached (No. 3 - 1,016); wins (No. 3 - 708); and 20-win seasons (No. 4 - 22). Already a member of the Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame, Gunter was inducted posthumously into the prestigious Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame in September 2005. It wasn’t too hard to figure out early in her career that Gunter was going to be a success in the world of athletics. During her collegiate days, Gunter earned All-American honors as a guard for Nashville Business College. She also played for the U.S. National team from 1960-62. Gunter proved her versatility as an athlete, earning All-American honors in softball as well.

Hall of Fame

Rosie Walker 2001 Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame Rosie Walker was a two-year letterwinner for the Ladyjacks during the 1978-79 and 197980 seasons. During that time she led the Ladyjacks to 30-5 (1978-79) and 27-6 (1979-80) records and back-to-back trips to the AIAW tournament, including the AIAW National tournament in 1980. Walker was a two-time Kodak All-American, as well as a two-time junior college All-American. She represented the United States in the 1979 Pan American Games and was a member of the 1980 Olympic team. Following her college career, Walker played professionally for the Nebraska Wranglers of the Women’s Professional Basketball League. She averaged 26 points and 14 rebounds a game, while shooting 69.5 percent from the field. Walker led the Wranglers to a league title in 1981. More than 20 years later, Walker’s name can still be found throughout the Ladyjack record books. Her 1,561 career points ranks ninth on the Ladyjacks list and her 23.7 points-per-game average and .660 field-goal percentage ranks as the school’s best mark. Walker’s 47-point performance against UCLA in 1979 is still the second-best day by a Ladyjack in school history. She also recorded a 40-point game against Louisiana Tech that same season. Walker’s name appears several times in the Ladyjack 35-point club and 20-rebound club.

THIS IS SFA Like the towering pine trees that encircle its campus, Stephen F. Austin State University has grown over time from its tiny beginnings to a strong, independent institution that stands proudly among its peers. And, like those majestic evergreens, SFA continues to strive for bigger and better things, always reaching toward the sun as it spreads its branches and drops its seeds all over the state of Texas. SFA has its roots in education, a strong foundation that has served the university well over the years and remains a point of pride for East Texas’ premier fouryear school. The university was first chartered by the Texas Legislature in 1917, but further progress was put on hold until after World War I. Following the war, funding legislation for the school was signed in 1921, and Nacogdoches was selected as the site that same year. Two years later, on Sept. 18, 1923, the first classes at Stephen F. Austin State Teachers College were held. Nearly a century later, the university ranks as one of the top teacher preparation institutions in the state and has attained national

recognition for several of its other instructional programs. With six colleges of instruction, SFA offers more than 80 undergraduate majors and more than 120 areas of study. Graduate students have nearly 50 degree programs from which to choose, including three doctoral courses of study. More than 80 percent of professors at and instructors at SFA hold the highest degree in their field. With a studentto-faculty ratio of 20:1, SFA continues to demonstrate that it is committed to making sure each student gets the personal attention he or she requires to succeed. SFA enrollment has been rising for four consecutive reporting periods. Enrollment for the fall 2009 semester was 12,845, followed by a spring 2009 enrollment of 11,226. In 2008, SFA introduced a new 12-day term, called May-mester, to expand opportunities for students to earn credit hours during the summer months. A new parking garage and multi-level freshman residence hall will soon be added to help accommodate the growth. The 412-acre main campus is part of

the homestead of historic Texas patriot and U.S. senator Thomas J. Rusk. The university also maintains the 490acre Walter Todd Agricultural Research Center for beef, swine and poultry production, as well as an experimental forest and a forestry field station on Lake Sam Rayburn. In addition, the physics department operates the second-largest observatory in the Central Time Zone. The facility is one of only a few in the world of its size that permit regular use by advanced undergraduates and graduate students. The largest telescope at the observatory, a 41-inch telescope, is the second-largest in both the state of Texas and the Central Time Zone. As SFA approaches its 90th birthday, the school continues to grow and evolve. Improvements — from a new student center to new residence halls to a new student recreation center — are being made on campus yearly to enhance the student experience. SFA has produced an alumni base exceeding 100,000 members, a number that will continue to swell as the university’s growth rate accelerates. Come grow with us.

Did You Know? Ninety-six percent of Lumberjacks report Texas residency, and 75 percent claim either the Dallas, East Texas or Houston areas as home.

NACOGDOCHES When Spanish trader Antonio Gil Y’Barbo established Nacogdoches as the first permanent settlement in Texas, he designated the town center as the intersection of El Camino Real and El Calle del Norte — the meeting place of the region’s major east-west and northsouth thoroughfares. Some 220 years later, Nacogdoches continues to be a major intersection — only now the town is a junction where a rich past meets a promising future. Nacogdoches is known for playing several key roles in the history of Texas and served as the backdrop or starting point for some of the biggest moments in the story of the state of Texas. Originally settled by a Caddo Indian tribe between 1250 and 1450, Nacogdoches saw French, Spanish and Mexican rule before the Lone Star Republic was established. Some of the first shots of the Texas Revolution against the Mexican government were fired in Nacogdoches. Town citizens, both Mexican and Anglos, attacked and drove out the local Mexican garrison in The Battle of Nacogdoches

in 1832. Townsfolk later helped outfit a company of volunteer soldiers from New Orleans who went on to fight in the Texas Revolution, some of whom lost their lives in the historic battle at the Alamo. The town’s history took a new turn in 1923 with the opening of Stephen F. Austin State Teachers College. The small college has since grown to a major university, and the town has grown to a population of approximately 30,000, with the amenities and entertainment options of a modern city. Nacogdoches also is located a mere 140 miles northeast of Houston and just 180 miles southeast of Dallas. Both cities offer excellent shopping and dining opportunities, as well as clubs from all four major professional team sports. Small enough to provide the safety and security of a small town, but large enough to offer many of the conveniences of a large city, Nacogdoches is as unique as it sounds. Texas’ oldest town continues to grow and prosper as its rich heritage guides it into its sixth century of existence.

Fast Facts • Nacogdoches is widely recognized as the “Oldest Town in Texas,” with some estimates placing the first Caddo Indian settlement in the area as early as 1250 AD. • As of the 2000 census, Nacogdoches’ population was 29,914. • The town encompasses a total area of 25.3 square miles. • While the state of Texas is known for the “Six Flags” that have flown over it, Nacogdoches claims those six, plus three more, a fact recognized each year with the town’s Nine Flags Festival. • Nacogdoches County is the top blueberry producer in Texas. The city hosts an annual Blueberry Festival each June. • Nacogdoches is the hometown of Clint Dempsey, formerly of MLS fame, now playing soccer for Fulham FC and the U.S. National Team.

Did You Know? The first oil well in the state of Texas was drilled in Nacogdoches in 1859.

STEPHEN F . AUSTIN Stephen F. Austin State University is named for one of the legends of Texas history. Stephen Fuller Austin, known as “The Father of Texas,” is recognized as the founder of Anglo-American Texas. Following his graduation from Transylvania University in Kentucky at the age of 16, Austin took over the family mining business in the Missouri Territory from his father. In the coming years, he would serve as an ensign in the Missouri militia and a Missouri legislator, as well as a circuit court judge in the Arkansas Territory. He went on to study law in New Orleans. During this time, Austin’s father, Moses, obtained a land grant from the Spanish government with the intent of settling 300 Catholic U.S. families in the Texas Territory. When the elder Austin died in 1821, Stephen picked up where his father left off, but found the going more difficult than anticipated. With the Mexican uprising against Spanish rule throwing the fledgling colonial government into turmoil, Austin’s status as empresario came into question. Austin

made multiple pilgrimages to the Mexican capital to plead his case and was rewarded by having his father’s original agreement with the Spanish government honored. In 1825, Austin brought the first 300 families into Texas to settle. Through cunning diplomacy and cautious political maneuvering, Austin negotiated contracts to bring another 900 settlers to Texas between 1825 and 1829. By 1832, Texas’ colonial population numbered 11,000. The growing colonial populous became increasingly dissatisfied with Mexican rule. Austin again traveled to Mexico City and gained several important concessions from the ruling authority, but after growing frustrated with the slow pace of change, Austin penned a letter encouraging Texans to unite and form their own independent local governments. For this he was arrested and spent several months in prison before returning, in 1835, to a Texas on the brink of revolution. The war for Texas independence

began in October of that year. While Austin had counseled his countrymen not to take up arms against Mexico until all diplomatic efforts had been exhausted, once the first shots in the war had sounded, his patriotism shone brightly. Austin is remembered for his firm and decided voice, speaking words of encouragement and hope during the darkest days of the revolution, as well as his laborious travels in the United States to obtain needed support for his struggling countrymen. Following the decisive Texas victory in the Battle of San Jacinto on April 21, 1836, Austin was named secretary of state under Sam Houston, the first president of the Republic of Texas. Unfortunately, his time in office would be short. Austin became ill in December of that year and died of pneumonia on Dec. 27, 1836. He was 43 years old. Upon hearing of Austin’s death, Houston issued an official statement proclaiming: “The Father of Texas is no more; the first pioneer of the wilderness has departed.”

CAMPUS LIVING Stephen F. Austinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s athletes have several unique opportunities when it comes to on-campus living. Recently, the university opened two brand-new apartment-style residence halls that boast the latest innovations in campus living anywhere in the United States. Lumberjack Lodge and Lumberjack Village both offer fully furnished units with private bedrooms and kitchen units. The Lodge, the first of the two facilities to open, is a four-story brick facility located conveniently near East College Cafeteria, Ralph W. Steen Library and Homer Bryce Stadium. The Lodge offers two-bedroom/one-bath or fourbedroom/two-bath units. Each unit has a kitchenette with a full-sized refrigerator, microwave and double sink. The building offers two laundry facilities per floor complete with television viewing areas, as well as a game room with pool table

and two conference rooms. The Village is the newest housing facility on campus. It is located in close proximity to the Pattillo Student Center, Health and Physical Education Complex and the new Student Recreation Center. Like the Lodge, the Village is a four-story brick building, but it has exclusively twobedroom/one-bath units. In addition to all the amenities found in the Lodge, the Village offers two types of units. Unit A consists of the same kitchenette setup as found in all the rooms at the Lodge. Unit B provides a full kitchen and a washer and dryer for personal use. In addition, the Village has an in-house convenience store for its residents, as well as outdoor recreation areas. Both Lumberjack Lodge and Lumberjack Village are co-ed halls with 24-hour visitation. Through an agreement with the Residence Life Department,

CAMPUS DINING The recent explosion of on-campus construction at Stephen F. Austin has provided students with numerous new opportunities in housing, learning and recreation. These changes may have had the greatest impact in the area of campus dining. The university now has more than a dozen eating locations from which to choose. The two primary on-campus eateries are East College Marketplace and Lumberjack Den, both all-you-can-eat buffet-style facilities. Lumberjack Den is located on the first floor of the newly renovated Baker Pattillo Student Center. East College is a favorite among studentathletes because of its close proximity to the athletics training facilities, as well as Hall 20 and Lumberjack Lodge. The university also has added an expanded Pizza hut station at East College Marketplace. Just to the north, on the ground floor of the Ralph W. Steen Library, students have a good outlet for quick study breaks. Einstein Bros.

Bagels café specializes in bagels and other breakfast food, as well as small deli sandwiches. The new Baker Pattillo Student Center offers more variety in dining choices in a contained location than any other place in town. Aside from Lumberjack Den, students have the option of frequenting several different restaurant chains. The Student Center houses Chickfil-A, Starbucks, Brickoven Pizzeria, Panda Express, Freshens Yogurt, Zoca, Bleecker Street Café and a convenience store. All students who live in campus residence halls — with the exception of those housed in the B Units of Lumberjack Village — are required to purchase a meal plan each semester. These meal plans provide a set number of meals per week that can be used at the on-campus dining locations. Meal plans can also be purchased for students who live off campus.

BAKER PATTILLO STUDENT CENTER In the past sevaral years, Stephen F. Austin State University has seen numerous construction projects and facility upgrades completed on campus. But the crowning achievement in this campus improvement campaign is the Baker Pattillo Student Center, opened in the spring of 2007. The $32 million renovation to what once was called the University Center began with a vision proposed by student leaders. SFA students now have access to a facility that rivals any in the region. The most recognizable portion of the project is the 95,000-square-foot addition that houses a three-story atrium and lounge area. The addition includes a multi-outlet food court and convenience store, as well as a 383-seat movie theatre and Commercial Bank of Texas banking center. The upper two floors of the addition

house offices for student government and student organizations, as well as other campus offices. Television rooms and study lounges are located throughout the facility. Some holdovers from the previous University Center include the Barnes and Noble University Book Store and Grand Central Station, the largest dining outlet on campus. The upper floor of the original building still houses the Grand Ballroom and Twilight Ballroom, as well as numerous lounges, suites, offices and meeting rooms. Just after its grand opening in April of 2007, the SFA Board of Regents approved a motion to name the student center for Dr. Baker Pattillo, SFA president and a key figure in the completion of this dream facility.

Facility Highlights • Project was born at a student leadership retreat in 2001. • Students voted to support project funding in March of 2003. • Construction began on May 17, 2004. • Facility was completed in just under three years. • Total cost of the construction was $32 million. • Total size of addition is 95,000 square feet. • Facility houses a 383-seat movie theatre. • Main addition is a three-story atrium that houses a multi-outlet food court, bank, convenience store, TV room and study lounges. • Post office was expanded to 10,000 P.O. boxes.

Did You Know? The Pattillo Student Center is one of only five structures on campus named for SFA presidents. The others are Johnson Coliseum, Steen Hall, Steen Library and the Boynton Building.

STRENGTH AND CONDITIONING It takes a special kind of athlete to earn a roster spot at a Division I institution. At Stephen F. Austin, the strength and conditioning staff is committed to taking those special athletes to an even higher level. Under the direction of veteran strength coach Dan Eason, SFA studentathletes take part in sport-specific programs to increase their strength, speed and endurance. The strength and conditioning program is based in the Jimmy W. Murphy Wellness Center — an 8,000-square-foot facility located at the southwest corner of Homer Bryce Stadium. The facility is conveniently located near the stadium and athletics field house and provides SFA student-athletes with the latest in weight and aerobic training equipment.

ATHLETIC TRAINING The Sports Medicine program at Stephen F. Austin seeks to provide the finest preventative education, medical care and physical rehabilitation possible for all SFA student-athletes. To that end, the program employs a state-of-theart training center and one of the best athletic training staffs around. Under the direction of veteran trainer Sandy Miller — a member of both the Southwest Athletic Trainers’ Association Hall of Fame and the National Association of Athletic Trainers’ Hall of Fame — the sports medicine staff provides the best in care for SFA’s student-athletes while providing a hands-on educational program for athletic training students. In addition to Miller, the department employs three accredited full-time assistant trainers, three accredited graduate assistants, 16 graduate students working toward their master’s

degrees in athletic training through SFA’s accredited entry-level graduate athletic training program, and 12 undergraduate students in the athletic training internship program. The sports medicine program is housed in the 5,300-square-foot athletic training facility located behind the field house at the north end of Homer Bryce Stadium. The training room has the staff and facilities to accomodate several student-athletes at once, with a wide range of equipment capable of meeting the needs to treat almost any injury. Features of the training facility include a pair of dual HydroWorx pools that measure seven feet, six inches square with a water depth of three feet, nine inches. One pool is configured for cold therapy, while the other employs heat. The pools are used for enhancing recovery, as well as aquatic rehabilitation.

No other SLC school employs more full-time accredited athletic trainers than SFA.

Athletic Training Staff Notable Achievements • In addition to being a member of two athletic training halls of fame, head athletic trainer Sandy Miller has had the opportunity to serve at many national and international events: • 1990 Goodwill Games • U.S. Olympic Training Center • 1995 Track & Field World Championships • Miller was honored as a Most Distinguished Athletic Trainer in 1999, and has served as a member of the board of directors of the NATA. The athletic training center also houses a set of SciFit exercise equipment that includes an upright bike, all-body ergometer and treadmill. This equipment is used to aid in rehabilitation of injuries.

ACADEMIC ASSISTANCE Under the direction of assistant athletics director for student services Amber Burdge, the SFA athletics department’s student services program offers support to student-athletes for nearly all phases of their lives away from the playing field. The mission of student services is to ensure that all studentathletes are aware of the resources available to them — both within the department of athletics and through the university at large — and to make sure that SFA’s student-athletes are utilizing these resources to maximize their potential, both in the classroom and in day-to-day life. Academics is the largest piece of the student services pie. The student services staff, which consists of Burdge, academic services assistant Kathy Springfield, two graduate assistants and up to eight student assistants, is charged with overseeing and managing the academic health of more than 350 student-athletes at SFA. Burdge and her staff utilize a software program called Student Athlete Monitoring System (SAMS) to keep abreast of the big picture. The SAMS software uses

feedback directly from SFA professors to update the athletics department with vital information like student-athlete grades, attendance and academic progress. Using the information provided by SAMS, as well as personal interaction with the student-athletes, student services can fine-tune the extra instructional opportunities to fit each student’s needs. University options available to all students include tutoring and student instruction through the library’s Academic Assistance and Resource Center (AARC). Thanks to the university’s friendly 20:1 studentto-instructor ratio, additional personal assistance from professors is typically also available. In-house assistance from the student support staff is always readily available for student-athletes and can be tweaked even further to fit the unique needs of each individual. Burdge and her staff act as liaisons between the department and the university faculty, cultivating the long-standing relationship between the two. Student services also provides individualized academic counseling, including course selection, scheduled,

degree programs and eligibility, as well as offering hand-picked tutors to fit the needs of student-athletes. Student-athletes are encouraged to make use of the Academic Services building, located behind the athletics field house at Homer Brice Stadium. The facility is manned by student services staff and is open six days per week for a total of nearly 70 hours a week. The building houses several individual study stations with partitions for semi-privacy and 15 computer work stations with inhouse printing and copying capabilities. The facility also offers laptop computers for student-athletes to take on road trips for completing course work during the season. In addition to the main area, there are two smaller workrooms available for tutoring or group study. The student services team also works in conjunction with the CHAMPS Life Skills program to help promote improved study skills and time-management practices, as well as health and wellness through programs like drug and alcohol education.

Did You Know? From the fall of 2008 to the spring of 2009, 46 SFA studentathletes received their degrees. In the spring of 2008, SFA had 135 student-athletes on the Athletic Director’s Honor Roll.

TRAINING FOR LIFE The Stephen F. Austin athletics department seeks to give its studentathletes every advantage they need to succeed both on the field and in the classroom. But the ultimate goal of training in both these arenas is to give our Lumberjacks a leg up in the game of life. To that end, the department strives to provide SFA student-athletes with the resources and support needed to prepare them for success in their lives after collegiate athletics. The life training starts with a freshman orientation class called SFA 101. The course is available for any first-year SFA student and seeks to ease the transition into life on the SFA campus. SFA 101 courses meet twice weekly for an hour each meeting, and the student receives a letter grade worth one semester hour of credit. But the gains of successfully completing the course go far beyond mere credit earned toward graduation. SFA 101 presents and reinforces skills and information that are key to a smooth passage from high school or junior college to life at a four-year institution. Primary topics include: academic integrity, accessing and evaluating

information, campus and community service opportunities and obligations, college classroom learning strategies, overview of university resources, time management, money management, the true value of a college education, university rules and procedures, and working successfully with peers, faculty and staff. The course also provides students with information about SFA’s history and traditions. The course is taught by handpicked faculty and staff members who are dedicated to helping students succeed. The athletics department offers two course sections, proctored by administrators. Assistant athletic trainer and senior woman administrator Loree McCary teaches one section, while assistant athletic director for academic services Amber Burdge oversees the other section. In addition to the required curriculum for SFA 101, the department’s classes also cover extra topics, including: career exploration, team-building exercises, alcohol education, personal health and safety, and note-taking and exam preparation. In addition to her role as an SFA 101

instructor, McCary coordinates the SFA athletics department’s CHAMPS Life Skills program. CHAMPS (Challenging Athletes’ Minds for Personal Success) is an initiative of the NCAA Foundation to create a total development program for student-athletes. The goal is to send student-athletes into life after college with the knowledge and skills they need to succeed on their own in the real world. In her first year as senior woman administrator, McCary took SFA’s CHAMPS program in a new direction, offering multiple educational opportunities and chances for student-athletes to come together and build skills for the future. Program topics include: stress management, personal safety and selfdefense, violence prevention, dressing for success, interviewing techniques and financial planning. The Champs curriculum also includes: nutrition and cooking, money management while in school, life after athletics, drug and alcohol education, and personal and social development.

TRADITIONS The students and faculty at Stephen F. Austin State University have bred several strong traditions since the school’s founding, and, as SFA approaches its 90th birthday, new traditions are born almost yearly. It’s no coincidence that nearly all of SFA’s rituals and customs have ties to Lumberjack and Ladyjack athletics, a rallying point for school spirit since the university’s beginnings. The oldest campus tradition also is the most easily recognized one. Future students find it staring them in the faces before they set foot in an SFA classroom. When high schoolers tear open the envelope containing their letters of acceptance to the university, the first line boldly reads, “Congratulations! You’re a Lumberjack!” Since the university first opened its doors in 1923, SFA’s athletic teams and students in general have been known as the Lumberjacks. The nickname was chosen in an assembly held shortly after the institution officially opened classes. Students and the faculty met to debate the merits of several potential nicknames, with the proponents of each choice leading cheers to rally support for their

proposed mascots. T.E. Ferguson — a professor of English at the time, whose name now adorns an academic building on campus — submitted “Lumberjacks,” a nickname he found appropriate for a university surrounded by the piney woods of Deep East Texas. The assembly agreed. With the arrival of the first women’s basketball team in the late 1930s, SFA’s female athletes took on the moniker of Ladyjacks, a nickname chosen by two of the campus’ pioneers in women’s athletics — Drs. Lucille Norton and June Irwin. One special SFA tradition earns national attention each year as the college football season winds down, and bitter rivalries are hashed out all over the country. When the Lumberjack football team takes on rival Northwestern State, there are more than just bragging rights up for grabs. The two teams battle each year with the winner taking home the largest football trophy in the nation — Chief Caddo. The Chief is seven feet, six inches tall and weighs more than 320 pounds. Chief Caddo is in his late 40s, having been carved from a 2,000-pound black

gum log following the 1961 football game between the two teams. The statue is named to honor the Caddos — a Native American tribe indigenous to the area. As legend has it, a Caddo chief and his two sons are responsible for the settling of Nacogdoches and Natchitoches, La. — home to Northwestern State — each of which is recognized as the oldest settlement in its respective state. Anyone lucky enough to be on campus for an SFA victory over the Demons will have the chance to see the Lumberjack football team rally around the statue of Chief Caddo and celebrate the fact that he will reside in the Homer Bryce Stadium field house for the next calendar year. Following the game, if fans look to the south of the stadium, they’ll be able to see another important SFA tradition in action. After every SFA victory in any sport, at home or on the road, the university turns on a large purple light that sits atop the Garner tower, the tallest building on campus. The building’s roof remains illuminated all night to let all who see it know that their Lumberjacks or Ladyjacks were victorious.

2009-10 Media Guide

TRADITIONS The light atop Garner can be seen all over campus, but another Lumberjack tradition can be heard — and sometimes felt — all over town. At every home football game, the SFA ROTC cadets man a 75 mm cannon dubbed “Ole Cotton.” From its station beyond the south end zone at Homer Bryce Stadium, the big gun puts an exclamation point on every SFA scoring strike, as the cadets fire off a round to rally the Lumberjacks and their fans. Speaking of fans, there is no shortage of ways for the Lumberjack faithful to get together and show their support for SFA athletes. Starting with the ’Jacks Back Pep Rally before the first home football game of the season, SFA fans crowd the commuter parking lot before every home game for Lumberjack Alley the biggest tailgate party in town. With local businesses, student organizations and SFA alumni offering food, drink, games and fellowship, there’s a good time to be had by every Lumberjack fan. Homecoming week is full of opportunities for SFA students, fans and alumni to gather in support of their

2009-10 Ladyjack Basketball

school. The Alumni Association sponsors an alumni golf tournament, silent auction, benefit drawing and Duck Dash — a water race featuring rubber ducks — during the week. On game day, the main event leading up to Lumberjack Alley and the football game is a parade downtown. The night before the game, the SFA band and spirit squads lead a torchlight parade through campus and out to the intramural fields, where the torch is used to light SFA’s annual homecoming bonfire. A new tradition that also involves fire is the Burn Shirt program. Begun by the Student Activities Association in an effort to increase school spirit on campus, the Burn Shirt initiative encourages students to get rid of apparel that is branded with the logos and names of other universities. Students can trade other schools’ merchandise for an SFA T-shirt. The shirts are known as Burn Shirts, because, in the project’s formative days, the discarded apparel from other colleges was burned on a bonfire in a spirit rally setting. But in 2007, it was decided that a more productive use of the unwanted gear would be to donate it to local

shelters and charitable organizations. The idea remains the same, though, proclaimed in the words of the Burn Shirts: “Lumberjack Spirit Burns In My Soul!” One of the newest traditions on campus helps Lumberjacks identify one another long after they graduate and leave Nacogdoches behind. The SFA Mentor Ring is a specially designed ring that has been adopted as the university’s official class ring. More than just a piece of jewelry, the Mentor Ring comes with an SFA mentor for each student. These mentors ensure that the students’ last months at SFA are on the right track to graduation and beyond. Students receive their Mentor Rings in a ceremony called the Big Dip. At this ceremony, held in the middle of campus, students have their hands dipped in purple dye before being presented with their rings. Each of these customs and rituals plays its own role in making the SFA experience unique. Get involved, find your niche and maybe you could be responsible for the next great Lumberjack tradition.

UNIVERSITY ADMINISTRATION DR. BAKER PATTILLO University President Stephen F. Austin State University has been a major part of the life of Dr. Baker Pattillo for more than 40 years — first as a student, later as an administrator and now as president. After 27 years as vice president, Pattillo was named president by the SFA Board of Regents in January 2007. A longtime supporter of Lumberjack and Ladyjack athletics in his role as vice president for university affairs, Pattillo immediately voiced his intention to remain committed to the students. “My role has been to serve students and to attend to student needs; that role will now be expanded to all areas of the university,” Dr. Pattillo said following the board’s announcement. “However, students are the primary reason we are here, so I’ll be focusing on our continued efforts to improve recruitment and retention. I’m looking forward to this and will give my best to the university every day.” Prior to being named president, Dr. Pattillo was vice

ROBERT HILL Director of Athletics Hill is in his fifth year as Director of Athletics and his 23rd year as a member of the SFA Athletics Department. During his time as Director of Athletics, SFA teams have claimed 12 Southland Conference titles and have made NCAA championship appearances in men’s and women’s basketball, volleyball, soccer, softball and indoor and outdoor track and field. Following on the heels of its 2008 SLC title, and trip to the NIT, the men’s basketball team claimed its second consecutive conference title and advanced to the NCAA Championships for the first time in school history. SFA Athletics also recorded another first during the 2008-09 season qualifying all of its men’s and women’s teams to SLC post season tournaments. Under Hill’s guidance, SFA has added two new varsity sports. SFA will be competing in women’s golf and bowling beginning in 2009-10. Facility improvements have been a priority since Hill became director with the addition of a new sound system for the Coliseum, an eight-lane track surface, video screens and scoreboards for football, basketball and

president for university affairs, overseeing all athletics programs at SFA. During that time, Dr. Pattillo also served as the university’s institutional representative to the NCAA, and recently completed a term as president of the Southland Conference. A native of Arp, Texas, Dr. Pattillo began his professional career at SFA in 1966 when he was named assistant director of placement and financial aid. In 1970, he became director of placement and financial aid, serving until 1972 when he was named dean of student services. He was promoted to vice president for student affairs in July 1979 with the more comprehensive university affairs designation coming in 1982. A two-time graduate of Stephen F. Austin, Dr. Pattillo received his Bachelor of Science degree in 1965 and his Master of Education degree in 1966. He received his Ph.D. in educational administration from Texas A&M University in 1971. Dr. Pattillo and his wife, Janice, who is chair of the Department of Elementary Education and a professor of elementary education, have one daughter, Paige, an SFA graduate who graduated from law school at the University of Texas in May 2004. She was also the feature twirler with the Lumberjack and Longhorn bands. With a lifestyle that has been all SFA all the time, Pattillo continually makes a fresh commitment to help improve the university, not only for current and future students, but also for alumni and Nacogdoches. baseball, renovated dressing rooms for football and men’s basketball, major renovations to the fieldhouse main meeting room, football offices and to the varsity weight room. A new $450,000 tennis pavilion to house the women’s team, opened in the spring of 2008. Major renovations are ongoing for both baseball and softball after securing a long-term lease with the City of Nacogdoches. Baseball construction includes a new 750 seat bleacher system while work is underway to build a new softball stadium for exclusive use of the Ladyjacks in time for the 2010 season. Academic success is another point of emphasis for Hill. A total of 203 SFA student-athletes posted a 3.0 GPA or higher during the 2008-09 academic year. There were also 40 student-athletes who earned their degrees with 17 of those graduating with honors. Hill also is active on the national scene, serving on the Football Championship Subdivision Athletic Director’s Association committee representing the Southland Conference. He also serves on several Southland Conference committees. In 2007, he received the General Robert R. Neyland Outstanding Athletic Director Award from the AllAmerican Football Foundation. The Canadian, Texas, native began his SFA career as sports information director in 1987. Hill moved to assistant athletic director for business affairs in 1990 and became associate athletic director for internal affairs in 1998. Prior to joining SFA, he spent 17 years in broadcasting. Both he and his wife, Brenda, are SFA graduates. Their family includes daughter Alix and her husband Matt of Dallas; son Stuart and his wife Kathy and a grandson, Blake, all of Columbia, MD.

INTERCOLLEGIATE ATHLETICS COUNCIL The Intercollegiate Athletics Council, as a standing committee of the faculty senate, serves as an advisory panel to the Department of Intercollegiate Athletics. Its mission is to maintain intercollegiate athletics programs that benefit all students — student-athletes and non-student-athletes — and which are supportive of the purposes and goals of the university. The NCAA Constitution requires that a majority of the members of the Intercollegiate Athletics Council be regular faculty members or administrators of the university. The faculty members of the Intercollegiate Athletics Council are appointed by the vice president for university affairs. The council consists of seven members — six faculty, staff or members of the community, and the director of athletics, who serves as an exofficio member of the council. Faculty members serve staggered three-year terms, which begin with the new academic year. Members may be reappointed to serve additional terms. The chair of the Intercollegiate Athletics Council is a faculty representative appointed by the vice president for university affairs. The council reports as requested to the faculty senate. The Intercollegiate Athletics Council meets monthly during the academic year with the director of athletics to review the operations of the department, assist in the development of new policy, and consult on other matters as related to athletics.

2009-10 Ladyjack Basketball

Program History Stephen F. Austin was one of the first universities in the country to compete in women’s athletics. The Ladyjack athletic program has been quite successful from its inception in the late 1930s through the present. Women’s athletics was first organized by Dr. Lucille Norton when she came to SFA in 1939 as what she called an “intramural program and extramural program.” The best-skilled athletes from the intramural program were chosen to play on the extramural team. Those athletes, who furnished all their own equipment and clothes, would travel off campus to Sam Houston State and East Texas State to play a few games a year. There were no athletic budgets or regulation uniforms. Norton used a little money from the HPE Department and her own personal car for transportation. Dr. June Irwin came to SFA as a student in 1942

red, white and blue for many years until a proper purple material was found. The team held fund-raisers to earn the money for the uniforms. The women did not use the name Ladyjacks until construction was started on the coliseum in 1974. When the building was near completion, plans were made to include the Lumberjack mascot on the walls. Irwin, who was at the time the only female member of the Athletic Council, asked President Steen if the women also could be represented. By the next morning, she, Norton and Mrs. Matthews had come up with the nickname “Ladyjacks.” The original logo was designed by one of the basketball players, Carol Lamberth, who was an art major. Under the supervision of Irwin, Sue Gunter served as the first women’s athletic director from the early 1970s to 1982. She also coached the very successful Ladyjack

and began playing on the intramural and extramural teams. Once she joined the staff, she began coaching some of the teams. By the late 1940s, the basketball team acquired matching regulation uniforms. Basketball was the first sport played, and eventually teams were started in softball, tennis, golf and volleyball. Virginia Matthews joined the HPE staff in 1952 and helped Irwin coach the intramural programs. By the late 1960s, Norton decided SFA needed to progress further with its women’s athletic programs. At that time, Sue Gunter was hired to coach basketball and later became SFA’s first women’s athletic director. In 1972 Norton and Gunter traveled to Kansas City to take part in the first organizational meeting for women’s athletics; out of that came the AIAW national organization. The department has advanced from the AIAW days to competing on the NCAA Division I level in the 12team Southland Conference. Irwin and Norton were responsible for the women’s basketball team’s first modern-day uniforms and for the nickname “Ladyjacks.” In the early 1970s, the two approached Mr. Deaton, the man from whom they bought intramural uniforms, and asked if he could design a purple basketball uniform. At that time the only purple material he had was a cheap design that faded badly, so he talked them into using blue with red and white trim until a better material could be found. The SFA women, who were one of the state’s first college teams to have uniforms, wore

basketball team from 1968-80. First Norton, and then Irwin, served in the capacity of Women’s AD before Irwin approached then-SFA President Steen about the need for an expanded position. Eventually, Sadie Allison was added as assistant women’s athletic director. When Gunter left for LSU in 1982, Allison took over the director’s position. Allison served as women’s athletic director from 1982 to 1993. The programs were then combined under former athletic director, Steve McCarty. The Ladyjack basketball team is recognized as a national powerhouse. Since results were first kept in the 1972-73 season, SFA boasts an impressive 821-327 (.715) record. In the 1970s, under the direction of Gunter, the Ladyjacks competed in the AIAW National Tournament five times. The Ladyjacks competed in the first NCAA Tournament in 1982 and have gone on to compete in 17 more, including, at one point, a streak of 15 consecutive years. SFA received the honor of hosting the NCAA Midwest Regional in 1993 and again in 1996. The Ladyjacks advanced to the Sweet 16 both of those years, in addition to three other occasions. The Ladyjacks also have prospered in the Southland Conference. Since joining the league in 198788, the Ladyjacks have won 14 regular-season conference championships and 15 SLC Tournament titles.

William R. Johnson Coliseum In its 35th year of existence, the William R. Johnson Coliseum has established a reputation as one of the finest basketball facilities in the Southwest, as well as a tough arena for opponents. Built in 1974 at a cost of $3.5 million, the coliseum is not only the home of both SFA basketball teams and the site of the 1993 and 1996 Women’s NCAA Midwest Regionals, but also has served as a concert arena for such top attractions as Pearl Jam, Alabama, Huey Lewis & The News, Clint Black, Aaron Tippin, Heart, Garth Brooks, Willie Nelson, Mark Chesnutt, Clay Walker, and the San Antonio Philharmonic. In addition to these events, the coliseum also serves as host of the University Interscholastic League Region III Conference A Regional for both boys’ and girls’ basketball. The coliseum serves as the university’s graduation facility. It has undergone numerous renovations in recent years, including the installation of 7,200 chair-back seats. The seats reduced the capacity in the coliseum from just more than 8,000 to its present 7,203. During the summer of 1993, a new multipurpose scoreboard and message center were installed. Prior to the 1999 season, a video projection system was in place for basketball games. During the summer 2007, a new Daktronics ProStar Video Board and ProAd Panel were installed in the coliseum. The new scoreboard also has a video screen and message center. The Ladyjack locker room was remodeled prior to the 1993-94 season. Each player has an individual wooden locker and bench with her name on it. New carpet also

has been installed in the locker room. A television, VCR, bulletin board and blackboard allow coaches to provide instruction during team meetings and before games and at halftime, in addition to entertainment for the Ladyjacks when it’s time to relax. The training room is located in the back of the locker room, along with individual showers. Originally called the SFA Coliseum, the facility was renamed prior to the 1991-92 season in honor of SFA’s fourth president, Dr. William R. Johnson. A portrait of Johnson was unveiled in 1995 and is still on display in the coliseum. The facility houses both the Lumberjack and Ladyjack basketball offices, Ladyjack volleyball offices and locker rooms, a training room, ticket office, and meeting and hospitality rooms.
