2013 LSC Preseason Poll

2013 AFCA Preseason Poll

The Coaches

The Lone Star Conference held its annual LSC Football Media Day at the Embassy Suites in Fort Worth on Tuesday and announced the preseason poll and players of the year for the upcoming 2013 football season. Tarleton State was picked to finish third in the conference after receiving one first-place vote for a total of 99 points. West Texas A&M is the top choice to repeat as LSC football champion according poll that reflects the opinions of LSC head coaches and sports information directors, plus various media representatives from throughout the region. “I am very excited about the team that we have and the team that we are going to put on the field this year,” Fowler said after addressing the media. “We have 27 players that have started at least three games over the past couple of years and over 40 lettermen, so I think that we have a team that can make a run in the conference for sure.” WTAMU, which earned a share of the 2012 LSC title with a 7-1 mark, earned first-place votes on 16 of the 21 ballots to finish with 141 total points. Midwestern State, the 2012 co-LSC champion, was second in the poll with 124 points and three firstplace nods, and the Texans came in right behind the Mustangs in third. Texas A&M-Kingsville was fourth with 82 points and the remaining first-place vote, followed by Angelo State in fifth (69), Eastern New Mexico sixth (39) and A&M-Commerce seventh (34). WTAMU quarterback Dustin Vaughan was named LSC Preseason Offensive Player of the Year, while teammate Ethan Westbrooks was tabbed the Preseason Defensive Player of the Year. All of the head coaches spoke about the upcoming season and LSC Commissioner Stan Wagnon discussed the upcoming changes to football in the conference, including the new rules that will be incorporated into this coming season, especially the highly talked about “targeting rule”. Media members from all seven LSC football institutions were on hand to meet with coaches, players, and other conference personnel to discuss the upcoming season. Tarleton senior defensive back Dashaun Phillips (Duncanville) and junior wide receiver Clifton Rhodes III (Fort Worth) met with the media and talked about the growth of Tarleton football in 2013.

The Tarleton offense averaged 34.5 points per game (third in the LSC) last season, but managed to post scores of 40 points or more in three of its final five games - including a 54-point effort against Angelo State in the regular-season finale. The Texans will look to improve its third-down percentage in2013 after converting 41 percent (61-147) of its third-down efforts last season, which ranked second in the LSC.

Doyle completed 153 of his 244 passes for 10 touchdowns with nine interceptions on the year. Doyle was the primary starter for the Texans before an injury against Texas A&MKingsville sidelined him. He did however see action in the final game against Angleo State. Jake Fenske (6-4, 220, Sr.) was forced into the starting role following the injury to Doyle last season, and all he did was throw five touchdowns in his first career start and set three different school records over the final three games. Fenske tossed a school record 99-yard pass against North Alabama and then closed out the year with a 460-yard passing performance against the Rams at home. The 460 yards set a new single-game school record for most passing yards in a contest. He finished the season completing 102 of his 154 passes for 1,285 yards. His 66.2 completion percentage also set a new school record. He tallied 11 touchdowns and had just six picks on the season.

He tallied 255 yards on 46 carries, losing just two yards total in two contests. Henshaw were each named Second Team All-LSC selections following the regular season. A trio of freshmen will join the mix as well this season, as the coaching staff added Cody Burtscher (5-11, 185, Fr.), Glenn Roberts (5-7, 180, Fr.) and Jabari Anderson (5-8, 180, Fr.) to the roster this offseason.

Jerome Regal added a lot of depth to the receiving corps, bringing back three redshirt freshmen and adding seven true freshmen to the squad.

Offensive Line

Nick Perez (6-4, 290, So.), Lucas Love (6-4, 280, Jr.) and Chris Burnett (6-0, 290, Sr.) each started all 10 games for the Texans last season. They helped anchor an offense that rushed for 1,761 yards (third in the Lone Star Conference) Tight Ends and tallied 2,864 yards through the air (second in Honorable Mention All-LSC selection Will McLane the LSC).

He returns A pair of Texans, Kody Travis (6-4, 270, So.) and as a key component to the Texan offense after Armando Alvarez (6-3, 315, Sr.), will make the catching four passes for 52 yards last season. He transition to starter on the offensive line after will be backed up by three freshmen in 2013, with appearing in a total of 15 games combined last Cooper Cole (6-0, 210, Fr.), Ernest Gonzales (6-3, season. The offensive line will be backed up by four returning Texans and an incoming junior270, Fr.) and Alex Gallegos (6-3, 205, Fr.) each transfer. John O’Brien (6-7, 290, Jr.) will back up looking to make a spot in the depth chart.

Having a pair of experienced linebackers in Marquis Wadley (5-9, 215, Sr.) and Marc Martinez (6-0, 220, Jr.) return to the squad will be beneficial to head coach Cary Fowler’s defense this season.

Linebackers

three interceptions for the Texans in 2011. Phillips will try and return to the 2011 season form where he tallied 50 tackles and picked off seven passes. He also had a defensive backs-high 3.5 TFL and a sack. Redshirt freshmen Robert Adkinson (5-9, 175, R-Fr.) and Daniel Adams (6-0, 180, R-Fr.) will serve as primary back-ups at the cornerback position, while Brandon Moore (5-10, 185, So.) and Chance Wallace (6-0, 190, So.) each backup the safety positions. Jeremy Louis (5-9, 180, So.) and Brayden Coverdale (6-2, 210, R-Fr.) will also see time in the defensive backfield as well in 2013.

2012 Review

Tarleton lost nearly 35 percent of its tackles for loss and over 40 percent of its sacks in 2012 with the departures of Rufus Johnson and Brian Ford, but Patrick Bettiol ((6-3, 240, So.) returns to the fold after starting seven of the eight games and collecting 31 total tackles, 5.0 TFL and 2.0 sacks. He was second on the team with three quarterback hurries as well. Andre Allen (6-3, 235, Jr.) returns as well and will be in the rotation after finishing 2012 with 23 total tackles. He tallied 6.0 TFL and 1.5 sacks. Juan Gonzalez (6-3, 275, Jr.) and Ronnie Faimoa (6-3, 300, Sr.) have 15 starts and over 30 games played between them on the defensive line. Gonzalez has played in all 21 games since his freshman season and finished the 2012 campaign with 15 tackles and 1.5 sacks. Faimoa tallied 16 tackles and 1.5 sacks as well. Justin Rayside (6-3, 250, Jr.), Keivaughn Barrett (6-3, 285, Jr.), Ethan Perkins (5-10, 300, Jr.) and Brandon Johnson (6-6, 280, Jr.) all transfered into Tarleton back in the spring and will each be major contributors on the defensive line depth chart. Returners Jade Grant (6-1, 215, So.) and Brian Ndwa (6-2, 230, Jr.), along with redshirt freshmen Damien Ward (6-3, 225, R-Fr.) and Jake Blount (6-4, 225, R-Fr.) will also look to make an impact at the defensive end position. Returning to the team at the tackle position are Jarett Alvarado (6-3, 245, So.) and Cole Vitolo (5-11, 265, Sr.). Incoming freshmen Jarrett Bopp (6-4, 275, Fr.) and Jared Thames (6-0, 260, Fr.) could also see reps on the defensive front early as well.

Wadley has led the Texan defense in total tackles the past two years, collecting 83 in 2012 and 119 in 2011. In his two seasons with the Texans, Wadley has over 13 TFL and seven defensive breakups. He has a career total six forced fumbles and three fumble recoveries. Martinez was second on the team last season with 55 tackles. He recorded 8.5 TFL and had 1.0 sack. Tyrone Melton (6-0, 245, Jr.) will make the transition from defensive end to linebacker this season. In 2012, he tallied seven tackles, which included 3.0 sacks. Savion Washington (5-11, 205, So.) is also making the move to linebacker after spending the 2012 season as mostly an offensive weapon at fullback. Dan Jackson (6-0, 200, Sr.) received a medical reshirt in 2012 and returns to the squad after finishing second on the team with 74 total tackles in 2011. He tallied 8.0 TFL and 1.0 sack as well. Anthony Lee (6-0, 215, So.), Kade Cole (5-11, 215, So.) and Alex Anderson (6-2, 235, Jr.) all return to the team after seeing action in nine games between them.

The Coaches

The Tarleton State defense lost four starters, but returns seven players that started at least seven games last season, along with another three players that have starting experience. The defense finished the 2012 regular season ranked 65th in the nation and fourth in the Lone Star Conference in total defense, yielding 360.4 yards per games to opponents. Despite only ranking 50th in the nation in rushing defense (137.8/game), the Texans did have a couple of great games throughout the season, limiting Abilene Christian to just 55 yards on the ground and then going into to A&M-Commerce and keeping the Lion offense in check with just 20 yards rushing on 25 attempts. The Texans will look to improve a passing defense that ranked 89th in the nation and fifth in the LSC after giving up 222.6 yards per game through the air. Tarleton did however limit four teams to 200 yards or less, which included a season-low 149 yards through the air against Incarnate Word. Tarleton will also focus on its scoring defense that finished 86th in the nation, giving up 28.3 points per game.

The Texan Special Teams The Tarleton State special teams will be in good hands as it returns a pair of All-Lone Star Conference honorees and a veteran deep snapper. The special teams will have a new holder for the first time in four years and will also have new players at both the kick and punt return positions. The Texans averaged 33.5 net punting yards last season, which ranked 67th in the nation. The Texans ranked 64th in punt returns, averaging 10.4 yards per attempt. The kicking game was one of the best in the nation last year as true freshman Blake Barnes averaged a nation’s best 1.8 field goals per game.

He made 18 of his 20 field goal attempts and was a perfect 38-for-38 in point-after-attempts. He scored 92 points on the year and his 9.2 points per game average ranked 19th in the nation. He also tied a school record after making five field goals in a game against A&M-Commerce. He heads into the 2013 season having made his last eight field goal attempts.

Punter Isaac Arellano (5-11, 180, Jr.) finished the 2012 season averaging 42.17 yards per punt, which ranked him not only 13th in the nation, but it gave him the secondbest per punt average in school history. An honorable mention all-conference selection, Arellano had 13 kicks inside the 20-yard line and eight punts booted for 50

yards or more. He had just three touch backs in his 38 attempts in 2012.

Return Specialist The Texans will have new specialists at both the punt return and kick return this season after losing its primary returners to graduation last year. Transfer freshman Bubba Tandy (6-1, 190, Fr.) will be the primary kick returner for the Texans in 2013 while backing up Andre Plata (5-10, 180, So.) at the punt return position. Robert Adkinson (5-9, 175, R-Fr.) will backup Tandy as secondary kick returner as well. Plata had 15 yards in the kick return last season. Dashaun Phillips (5-11, 180, Sr.) could also see some time at both returner positions after collecting 34 yards in punt returns and 106 yards in kick returns in 2012.

CARY FOWLER Head Coach

2013 Texan Football Media Guide

Head coach Cary Fowler will be looking to carry the momentum of 2012’s final three games into the 2013 campaign as he heads into his fourth season at the helm of the Tarleton Texan Football program. Fowler guided the Texans to a 3-0 mark in the final third of the regular-season last year and will look to continue that winning success and Tarleton football back into the postseason. Despite having one of the youngest teams in the Lone Star Conference last season and also working through a depleted squad due to injuries, Fowler still managed to guide the Texans to a 6-4 overall record and a 5-3 mark in conference play. Tarleton finished the 2012 season in a tie for third place with the 5-3 mark, giving Fowler back-to-back winning records against conference opponents. The 2012 squad collected a total of 4,625 yards on the offensive side of the ball, notching 2,864 yards through the air and 1,761 yards on the ground. The Texans averaged 462.5 yards per game, which ranked second in the LSC – just a little under 13 yards less than LSC co-champions West Texas A&M. Tarleton ranked among the top three LSC teams in many statistical categories on both offense and defense and that helped lead to 20 Texan players earning allconference recognition. Overall, Fowler had three players earn first team honors, eight second team selections and nine more honorable mention honorees.

overall pick in the 2013 NFL Draft, going to the New Orleans Saints in the sixth round. When it comes to the fourth year head coach, there is not a shortage for people to contact regarding advice. The Texans’ leader is going into his sixth season with the Texans overall and he feels that it has been a process of learning, growing, and communicating expectations with his fellow coaches and the players. He has used his coaching connections and mentors in order to better understand what it means to be a head coach of a football program. “I have been involved in college football for the past 24 years of my life,” said Fowler. “I have seen a lot of things and coached a lot of players, but here at Tarleton, I am able to fully appreciate the coaching experience. We have the facilities, the staff, and the university that makes Tarleton football one of the premier programs in all of Division II.” Coach Fowler has high expectations, not only for himself, but also for the players and the university as a whole. The 2013 squad could be one of Fowler’s most talented teams that he has assembled since taking over the program and with his leadership the Texans could prove to be a major player in the LSC this season. Through the early part of the century, Tarleton was the most successful program in the Lone Star Conference. Since then, the rest of the league has caught up in terms of recruiting and success on the field. It is a critical time for the Texans to maintain their hold on the forefront of the conference landscape. Fowler has spent 20 years in coaching at all only three schools, which is surprising considering the number of Division I coaches he has worked with, under, and over in his time in college football. With names like Houston Nutt, Denver Johnson, and Joe Pannunzio as influences, Fowler has plenty of sounding boards to bounce ideas off of. “The best thing that has happened to me is that Coach Nutt is not coaching anymore,” said Fowler. “Now I have unlimited access to him. I really use these coaches as guides and examples of coaching the right way. They have meant so much to me in my development as a coach and as a human being.” At the end of the day for Fowler, only one thing matters, and it isn’t necessarily winning games. “The most rewarding part of coaching is watching these kids graduate,” said Fowler. “We have a lot of first generation college students, as I was myself. My mom and dad influenced me more than anyone else and I haven’t missed a day of school or work my entire life. I want to set an example for these young men and show them that dedication and a drive to succeed are all you need to be something in life.” The 2011 team was Fowler’s real beginning as a head coach because he was able to play the players he recruited. With that squad, Tarleton overcame a 1-5 start to finish 6-5 on the year with five straight victories, including big conference wins over Incarnate Word, Texas A&M-Kingsville, and Angelo State. At 5-3 in league play, the Texans finished fourth overall behind ranked teams like Midwestern St., Abilene Christian, and West

After two seasons at Austin Peay State in Clarksville, Tenn., Fowler transferred to Murray (Ky.) State to begin what would be a nine-year relationship with the Racers’ football program. In 1993 and 1994, he was a safety and standout special teams performer before moving into a graduate assistant role from 1995-96. Fowler’s role would grow into his first full-time coaching job in 1997 when he was put in charge of the Murray State secondary. He became recruiting coordinator later that year before becoming the linebackers and free safety coach in 1999. During his four seasons as a full-time coach at Murray State, Fowler coached two All Americans in cornerback Willie Hampton (1998) and safety Beau Guest (2000). Fowler continued his coaching successes at Midwestern State as the defensive coordinator in 2001 where he coached a pair of All-Americans including linebacker Columbus Wooley and safety Germont Jackson. Fowler earned a bachelor’s degree in history from Murray State in 1994. Fowler married the former Shanan Dunn in June of 2002. The couple are the proud parents of two daughters: Sophi and Bella.

Henry Cofer enters his eighth season at Tarleton where he will serve as the linebackers’ mentor and the defensive coordinator. This will be his fourth year as defensive coordinator for the purple and white. Prior to his full-time stint for the Texans, Cofer spent two seasons as a graduate assistant coach at Tarleton. Cofer came to Tarleton with several years of high school experience. In 2012, Cofer was inspirational in the Texan defense earning seven all-conference honors, including three first team selections (Rufus Johnson, Marquis Wadley and Dashaun Phillips), a second team selection (Brian Ford) and three honorable mention selections (Matt Knicky, Blair Johnson, Charles Moore). The 2011 season saw the emergence of a young core of linebackers Cofer groomed for success. Wadley, a sophomore at the time finished with 119 tackles, which led the LSC. In his first season as the coordinator in 2010, the Texans played many young players all over the field, and the coach mentored a defense that was led by Damian Perkins with 99 tackles and Brandon Johnson with 86 total stops. In 2009, Cofer coached Marcus Phillips to an All-LSC First Team pick in his second season as a full-time coach. In 2007, Cofer coached the All-LSC First Team selection Vernon Smith after mentoring 2006 LSC South Division Linebacker of the Year Erick Smith who led the team, and was second in the conference, in tackles with 99. The linebacking corps was a huge part of a strong defense that was No. 1 in rushing defense and No. 2 in total defense. “When I came to Tarleton, I really wanted to gain experience at the collegiate coaching level, and I had a prior relationship with former Head Coach Sam McElroy from Sam Houston State,” Cofer said. “I have a passion 2013 Texan Football Media Guide

for the game of football, and I jumped at the chance to work at a family-oriented institution. This was, and continues to be, a great opportunity for me.” After attending the University of Arizona for one year, Cofer transferred to Sam Houston State where he lettered three seasons for the Bearkats and graduated in 1997 with a degree in kinesiology. He received all-conference honors while at SHSU. Cofer served as the defensive coordinator at Austin Johnston High School for four years (1997-2000) before coaching at Pflugerville High School for the next five seasons. While at Pflugerville, he helped coached the 2004 and 2005 Bi-District Champions and area runner-ups. In his five years there, Pflugerville claimed three district championships and he worked with four Division I signees at the runningback position. They made the playoffs all five seasons. Cofer, who completed his master’s degree at Tarleton in December of 2007, also serves as the professional football contact for the Texan coaching staff. Cofer has a 13-year-old daughter, Krysilynne.

Texan Football History

78

The football program has long played an important role on the campus of Tarleton State University, with records showing that Tarleton fielded a football team as early as 1904. The following story will take you on the journey of football at Tarleton, starting with the early days of junior college competition and continuing with the move to senior college level in 1961. It recaps the Texans’ dominance on the NAIA Division II scene and tells of TSU’s recent accomplishments as a member of NCAA Division II. Finally, this story ends by assuring you that Tarleton’s best days on the football field are still ahead. Football began at Tarleton almost from the start of the college. Records indicate that Tarleton fielded a team as early as 1904. However, scores of Tarleton’s games are available only starting in 1915. When Tarleton first began collegiate play, it was known as John Tarleton College but it became a junior college in 1906 and affiliated with the Texas A&M University System in 1917. It was know as John Tarleton Agricultural College (JTAC) until 1949 when it became Tarleton State College. In 1961, Tarleton began four-year competition and in 1973 became Tarleton State University. Tarleton enjoyed great success on the gridiron after World War I, going 52-16-6 over an eight-year span under the direction of W.J. Wisdom, who would later gain greater fame as a basketball coach. Included in the span was an 8-0-1 record in 1925 when Tarleton outscored its opponents 276 to 25 and was tied only by Baylor University’s freshman team. Wisdom also coached the 1935 team to a 9-2 mark, losing the last two games of the season after shutting out eight of the first nine opponents and outscoring opponents 235 to 6. Among the early luminaries of the game were Tarleton Hall of Famers Leslie “Al” Jennings, Max Menzies, Paul “Duck” Marr, Jess “Ironhead” Davis, Hugh Wolfe, Henry Todd, and Clifford Funderburk. During World War II, Tarleton did not field a team in 1942 or 1943 and played mostly military and academy teams in 1944 and 1945. In 1950, Tarleton posted a 7-3 record with what many consider its best team. Seven players from that team are Hall of Fame Al Jennings (1922-26) members, including quarterback Pence Dacus, rushing champion Marvin Brown, and receiver Jack Jones. Brown would later play professionally for the Detroit Lions. In the mid-50’s, led by stars Webb Bishop, Leon Blakeney and Jerry Flemmons, Tarleton would field strong teams, including a 7-11 record in 1956. Tarleton made its difficult transition from two-year to four-year competition in 1961 and also changed its team nickname from the “Plowboys” to the “Texans” by student vote. Though the team suffered through seven straight losing seasons – that did not keep John Riggs from becoming one of the most heralded defensive players in school history. The linebacker is one of just two players to have had his jersey (No. 63) retired. In 1966, Tarleton posted a 7-3 record behind a team that also boasts Hall of Famers. That squad defeated a team of Mexico All-Stars in the Aztec Bowl. Giant defensive tackle Randy Winkler would later play professional football. Between 1966 and 1968 Tarleton was entertained by magical quarterback, J.D. McMahon, throwing to receivers Pat Ballow, Harlan Wunsch and Jody Worsham. Between 1968 and 1975, Tarleton competed as a member of the Lone Star Conference. Over that eight-year span, the team recorded 2013 Texan Football Media Guide

just 12 wins while losing 68. One of the few highlights in that span was the opening in 1974 of Memorial Stadium as the football team’s new playing site. In 1976, the University left the LSC and helped form the nonscholarship Texas Intercollegiate Athletic Association. Over the next 15 years, Tarleton would win six TIAA titles, with back-to-back crowns in 1977 and 1978, 1986 and 1987, and 1989 and 1990. The 1978 team was the first to go to postseason play, finishing with an 8-0-1 record during the J.D. McMahon ranks as one of the regular season.

From 1979 to 1982, Ricky Bush would become Tarleton’s career rushing champion and the only Texan football player ever to be selected to four consecutive all-America teams, as he thrilled Tarleton fans at the turn of the decade. During a five-year span from 1986 to 1990, Tarleton went 4511-1, won the Sunflower Bowl in 1986, and advanced to the NAIA quarterfinals in 1987, 1989 and 1990. The 1990 team is the only Tarleton team to have an undefeated and untied regular season, going 10-0, before losing in the quarterfinals to eventual national champion Westminster College. That playoff loss to Westminster is remembered as one of the most thrilling games ever to be played at Memorial Stadium. Because of its domination of the league, Tarleton was requested to leave the TIAA and played as an independent from 1991 to 1994. In 1994 the school was accepted for membership to NCAA Division II, and rejoined the Lone Star Conference, first competing for a league title in 1995. Tarleton’s 10-3 record in 2001 is by far the top single season mark during the scholarship era. In 2002, the Texans finished 9-2 for the second best mark since beginning scholarships. Former head coach Todd Whitten played a key role in Tarleton’s recent success, averaging seven wins per season in his five years at the helm. He and his staff set out to make Texan football a consistent winner, and it appears they are well on their way to doing just that. In 2001, Tarleton earned a share of both the LSC overall championship and LSC South Division crown for the first time in school history. The Texans, John Riggs (1960-63) who closed the regular season with six straight wins, made their first-ever appearance in the NCAA Division II playoffs and advanced to the national quarterfinals. Tarleton placed 17 players on the All-LSC teams in 2002, including an amazing eight first team selections.

The Coaches

quarterback Scott Grantham scored from 20 yards out before punching in the two-point conversion for the victory. Tarleton finished the season 10-3 and claimed a share of the LSC championship and the LSC South Division title. Tarleton advanced to the second round of the playoffs for the second time in the program’s history. In 2010, head coach Cary Fowler took over a rebuilding program in his first year at the helm of the Texans. Tarleton struggled through injuries and inexperience, limping to a 3-8 record, but it gave the Steve Kelly (1999-2001) is Tarleton’s all-time passing younger players an opportunity to gain leader having passed for 8,203 valuable experience. The 2011 season was the most yards in 35 games played. successful under Coach Fowler after finishing the season on a five-game winning streak. Tarleton got off to a rough start, but faced very tough competition. In fact, the Texans’ losses came against ranked opponents, including No. 1 Midwestern State and No. 2 Abilene Christian. Tarleton rebounded though and finished the season as the hottest team in the conference. At 6-5 on the year, the Texans showed they were growing into a force to be reckoned with in the LSC. It showed a change of pace from the past few years and that the Texans were on the rise. The Texans opened the 2012 campaign upsetting nationally ranked Midwestern State, 20-17, and the team looked poised for greatness. After downing the No. 4-ranked team in the nation, Tarleton would hit the road for a neutral contest against Abilene Christian that would be played at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Tarleton took a three-point lead into the locker room, but the Wildcats came back with a stifling defense and defeated the Texans 3431. The team would battle back the next week with a win over Eastern New Mexico, but Tarleton would not win back-to-back contests until late October and early November. The Texans managed to go on the road and upset Gulf South Conference super-team North Alabama on the second to final week of the season and then defeat Angelo State in the season finale to earn wins in its final three games. Quarterback Jake Fenske set a school record with a 99-yard touchdown toss against UNA and then set the new school record for yards passing in a game against ASU, collecting 460 yards on the evening. Tarleton finished the season 6-4 overall and 5-3 in the LSC. After nearly 100 years of Tarleton football action, including 48 as a senior college, the Texans have never been stronger over a longer period of time. Clearly, the best is yet to come for the Proud Defenders of the Purple and White. The 2013 campaign will be another exciting chapter in the annals of Tarleton football history.

Senior defensive back Ranardrick Phillips became the first player in the LSC South Division to earn the Defensive Back of the Year Award three consecutive times (2005, 2006 and 2007). The Texans won the first five games of the 2008 season before dropping a close game at home to resurgent Texas A&M-Kingsville. The Texans finished 8-3 after dropping two of their last three games. Tarleton was featured on national television on CBS College Sports Network on Thursday, Oct. 30 when the Texans hosted Angelo State, winning 31-24.

The Players

The Tarleton Athletics Department honored five new members into the Athletics Hall of Fame on Jun. 1 as part of Tarleton’s Hall of Fame Weekend. Former letterwinners J.W. Boren, Krayles Banks and Tracy Guy will be honored along with the 1992 Tarleton TexAnn Basketball team and Tarleton supporter David Tomlinson. The induction dinner was held on the Tarleton State campus inside the Barry B. Thompson Student Center. The athletics department also hosted a reception for the honorees on Friday evening as well as a breakfast Saturday morning. Boren became the 63rd Texan Football player to be inducted into the Tarleton Athletics Hall of Fame. Boren was a four-year letterwinner for the Texans, donning the purple and white from 1999 to 2002. He was an All-Lone Star Conference selection all four years, earning secondteam honors his freshman year and first-team honors as a sophomore, junior and senior. A Stephenville native, Boren owns the school record having made five field goals in one game and he ranks second in school history in field goals made during a single-season after making 17 field goals his senior season in 2002. He ranked third in the LSC in points scored his senior year, scoring 90 points that season. Boren still holds the LSC career-record for field goals in a career, having kicked 59 field goals in his four-year stretch with the Texans. He is a two-time All-American selection, earning the honor in both 2000 and 2002. Banks was the 140th member and 64th Texan Football player to be inducted into the Tarleton Athletics Hall of Fame. Banks played for the Texans under legendary head coach Buddy Fornes and was a member of the defensive backfield that was coach by current Tarleton Athletics Hall of Fame member, Joe Gillespie. Banks helped lead Tarleton to a 15-4-1 record over his final two seasons with the team and was a part of Tarleton’s first ever TIAA conference championship in 1977. The Texans went on to win the TIAA conference title again during Banks’ senior season in 1978 as well. A native of San Marcos, Banks was known to be very deadly when coming up to play run-sweeps. The Texan coaches also acknowledged that Banks was a very good tackler and that he loved to play the game of football. During his senior season, Banks recorded more than 20 tackles, had six pass deflections and recovered a fumble as well. Guy entered the Tarleton Athletics Hall of Fame as the 50th basketball member to be inducted. A two-year starter for the Texans under head coach Lonn Reisman, Guy scored over 950 points while playing at Tarleton and helped lead the Texans to back-to-back TIAA

conference championships during the 1988-89 and 1989-90 seasons. Guy made 122 three-pointers his senior season with the Texans, which ranks second most in school history for a single-season. He made 210 three-pointers during his career and set the single-game school record with 10 three-pointers back on Dec. 5, 1988 against Pual Quinn. An Itasca native, Guy finished his career with over 300 assists and was a two-time all-conference selection and a two-time all-district 8 selection as well. Tomlinson became the third Tarleton supporter to be inducted into the Athletics Hall of Fame behind Dr. Lamar Johanson and Perry Elliott. A proud supporter of Tarleton Athletics, Tomlinson has served on the Texan Club Advisory Board of over 20 years and during that time has served as Texan Club President, twice. He first served as president from 1994 to 1996 and then served again from 2008 to 2010. In 1997, Tomlinson received the distinguished All-Purple Award, an award established in 1989 to recognize individuals who have demonstrated outstanding support of the Tarleton Athletics Program, the athletes and the university. He was also recognized in the spring of 2008 for his unresolved concessions service during athletic events, when the athletic department honored him with the naming of Tarleton’s Memorial Stadium Purple and White Pavilion area. The 1991-92 Tarleton TexAnn women’s basketball team returned five starters from a 1990-91 team that went 21-9 and just missed making the national playoffs after going 1-1 in the District 8 tournament. The TexAnns began the season ranked No. 7 in the nation and went 8-4 in the fall semester schedule. The team then won 22 games in the 1992 portion of the schedule and moved up to as high as No. 4 in the nation, while going 8-0 in District 8. The TexAnn squad defeated St. Joseph’s 81-70 in the first round of the NAIA Division II national tournament and then downed Pacific 68-66 in overtime of the second round. As an underdog, Tarleton then defeated Mount St. Joseph’s of Ohio 91-72 to make it to the championship game. Despite the season coming to an end in a 73-56 loss to Northern State College of South Dakota in the national title game, the TexAnns would end the year with a 30-8 overall record which still ranks as the most single-season victories in school history. The 1991-92 squad became only the second team in school history to compete for a national title and the first such team to do so since Tarleton had become a four-year university in 1962. Post season honors for the team included Kristen Curtis earning all-district and first team all-American honors; Helena Smith earning alldistrict and second team all-American honors and both Karla Dick and Julie Mata earning NAIA All-American Scholar Athlete honors. The Tarleton Athletics Hall of Fame now has 143 members.

The Players

CHADRON, Neb. - Tarleton State’s defense limited a high-powered Chadron State offense to just three points in the second half as the Texans rallied past the Eagles 28-24 in first-round action of the NCAA Division II football playoffs. The Texans trailed 21-7 late in the first half after quarterback Steve Kelly fumbled and Chadron’s Aric Lopez returned it five yards for a touchdown. That play seemingly gave the Eagles all the momentum heading to halftime. Kelly and Texans came right back and managed to cut their deficit to 21-14 with a quick 11-play drive that culminated with a 3-yard touchdown catch by tight end Kyle Masters, slicing the Chadron lead to seven points with 30 seconds left in the half. Chadron upped its lead to 24-14 with Ryan Larson’s 24-yard field goal on the Eagles’ first second-half possession, but the Texans’ defense would dominate from there, allowing Chadron to only 77 yards in their final four drives. The Texans limited Chadron to 0-for-4 on 3rd-down conversions and 0-for-2 on 4th-down tries in the final quarter. Tarleton squelched the Eagles’ fake punt attempt on 4th-and-1 at the Tarleton 44-yard line with 6:20 left, and the Texans stopped Chadron on a 4th-and-3 at the CSC 26 with 2:12 to play. Tarleton’s offense managed two lengthy scoring drives to complete the rally, first going 72 yards in 12 plays to score on running back Chavis McCollister’s 5-yard run late in the third quarter. D.T. Hopkins plowed up the middle from four yards out with 9:46 left in the game to put the Texans ahead 28-24, with that short touchdown run being set up by a 42-yard halfback pass from McCollister to wide receiver Damien Jackson.

Quarterfinals • November 24, 2001 Toomey Field • Davis, Calif. (5,377)

Aggies outscore Texans 21-8 in fourth quarter; Tarleton’s season ends in 42-25 loss

DAVIS, Calif. - Glenn Adriatico of UC Davis returned a fourthquarter kickoff 66 yards for a touchdown and scored again less than two minutes later on a 55-yard reception as the Aggies pulled away from Tarleton State for a 42-25 victory in the NCAA Division II quarterfinals. UC Davis overcame Tarleton leads of 7-0 and 17-14 to pick up the win. The Aggies took a 21-17 lead in the third quarter as RB Sean Holleman scored his third TD of the game, then Davis got the ball right back after a Tarleton punt and pushed its edge to 28-17 on the first play of the fourth quarter with Mike Oliva’s 19-yard TD catch. The Texans answered as Tarleton QB Steve Kelly completed 5 of 7 passes on a 9-play drive that ended with Kelly hitting Aaron Lucas on a 14-yard TD pass. Chavis McCollister then scored on a 2-point conversion run, cutting the UC Davis lead to just 28-25 with 11:40 left in the game. Tarleton was flagged for an offsides penalty on the ensuing kickoff, and after being forced to kickoff again, Adriatico gathered the ball at his own 34-yard line and raced unscathed in front of the Tarleton bench for the game-breaking TD. The Texans picked up one first down on the next possession before turning the ball over on downs at the UC Davis 45-yard line. That’s where QB J.T. O’Sullivan delivered the knockout punch, hitting Adriatico in stride over the middle for a 55-yard TD toss at the 9:28 mark. The score was tied 14-14 at halftime, with Tarleton turning the ball over twice in UC Davis territory, including a D.T. Hopkins fumble at the Aggies 1-yard line. Tarleton gained 489 yards on 76 plays but was just 2 of 13 on 3rddown conversions, compared to an 8 for 11 effort by the Aggies

KINGSVILLE, Texas - The Tarleton State football team offered too many chances to Texas A&M-Kingsville on Saturday and lost 34-10 in the first round of the NCAA Division II playoffs. The No. 21 Texansʼ Justin Parson fumbled the opening kickoff to put the Javelinas at the Texansʼ 37-yard line. The other problem with the ballgame for the Texans was the time of possession. The Javelinas won that stat 37:21 to 22:29. The Texans (8-4) also lost the turnover battle, giving up the fumble and a 68-yard interception return by TAMUKʼs Micahel Bragg. Bragg intercepted Tarleton quarterback Cliff Watkins at the goaline and returned it to the Tarleton 32. Problem No. 4 was the TAMUK defense. The Javelinas held the Texans 202 yards below their season offensive output, including 132 yards below the average passing game. TAMUK (10-1) got on the board first when Richard Hammond nailed a 44-yard field goal with 4:11 on the clock, capping a six-play, 12 yard drive that took 2:39 off the clock. A seven-yard Texan punt put TAMUK in good field position. Larry Williams put the Javelinas on the scoreboard again when he punched it in from four yards out. That capped a five-play, 25 yard drive that was set up when Chris Peterson, the Texan punter, had just a 19yard punt. Watkins scored his first rushing touchdown of the season when he ran a bootleg in from nine yards out. Jamie Guin added the kick with 11:50 left in the game to move the Texans within three, 10-7. The Javelinas got on the board with 1:05 left in the first half when Brent Holmes caught a 15-yard pass from Daniel Taylor. That play was set up by a 32- yard punt return by Eddie Moten to the Tarleton 19. Guin added a 48-yard field goal for the last Texan score with 11:50 left in the third quarter. TAMUK score three more times in the ballgame. Richard Hammond hit a 23-yard field goal with 8:07 left in the game to cap a 15-play, 51-yard drive. Holmes caught a 27-yard pass from Taylor with 5:25 left in the contest. That drive was set up by the Bragg interception. Williams put the final nail in the coffin when he punched it in from two yards out with 2:36 remaining. The Texans turned the ball over on downs in the middle of the field for the second time in the game. Williams ran for 36 yards on the play before the touchdown to set up the score. TAMUK defeated the Texans on Sept. 27, 23-15. Tarleton gained only 287 yards in the contest, including just 66 yards rushing. Watkins was 16-36 for 212 yards and no touchdowns. He had the one interception. TAMUK gained 287 yards of total offense, including 129 yards on the ground and 159 yards through the air. Leading the Texans in rushing was Joe Morrison with 16 carries for 73 yards. Justin Tabor had seven receptions for 97 yards, while Will Moody had just three catches for 64 yards. Ken Jones led the team with 18 total tackles, including four solo and 14 assisted tackles. He had three tackles for a loss of four yards and half a sack for four yards. Erick Smith was second with seven solo and nine assisted tackles. On the bright side, Watkins set a new school record for passing yards in a season with 5,547 this season. He also set a new record for attempts in a season with 437 attempts. The senior also set a new record for completions in a season with 264.

Texans Move on to second round; upset Javelinas 57-56 in Double Overtime Thriller

KINGSVILLE, Texas – In one of the most dramatic games in school and NCAA history, the No. 12 Tarleton Texans needed a come-frombehind victory and double overtime to advance to the second round of the NCAA Division II playoffs with a 57-56 win at No. 13 Texas A&MKingsville Saturday in front of a crowd of over 13,000 people. Tarleton improved to 10-2 on the season after quarterback Scott Grantham scored on a 20-yard run in the second overtime to pull Tarleton within one before running the two-point conversion in by himself to give the Texans the win. Overtime was set up with a 64-yard field goal by Tarleton’s Garrett Lindholm to tie the game as time expired after the Javelinas had scored with under a minute left in regulation. The kick was the second longest field goal in NCAA Division II history. Another record was set in the game when Devin Guinn set a new school mark for career receiving touchdowns with 26, passing Jeremy Madkins who earned 25 in 2003-06. With the Javelinas driving, Dominic Smith recovered a Javelina fumble at the Tarleton 23-yard line with just seconds left in the third quarter. The Texans then drove 77 yards over 14 plays and 6:59 and took the lead when Roderick Smith put the ball into the end zone from 11 yards out. Lindholm’s kick was good, and with 8:22 left in the contest, Tarleton led 43-39. Tarleton had three third-down conversions and one fourth-down conversion during the scoring drive. The Javelinas got the ball back with 4:56 left in the game and drove 61 yards on nine plays and scored the go-ahead touchdown. Brom’s kick put the score at 46-43 with 45 seconds left on the clock. Tarleton started at its own 26 with a false start penalty. Facing fourth and 18, Grantham hit Arthur Buckingham on a 35-yard pass for a first down. Then, facing a third and 10 from the Kingsville 47, Lindholm hit the kick that tied the game at 46 from 64 yards out as time expired. Buckingham had the hold, Kyle Piercefield the snap. Tarleton loss the coin toss in overtime and had the ball first. The Texans got to the eight, but Lindholm was forced to kick a 27-yard field goal after a delay of game penalty to go ahead 49-46. TAMUK then drove to the Tarleton two, but the Javelinas also had to kick, Brom’s good from 19 yards. The Javelinas then got the ball first in the second overtime, and TAMUK scored on a two-yard run from Winborn. The kick by Brom made it 56-49 and forced the Texans to do the same. Robertson started from the 25 and gained five yards before two incomplete passes forced the Texans into a fourth and five from the 20. Grantham scrambled to the right and saw an opening, and after breaking several tackles and spinning into the end zone, the Texans trailed by just one point. The Tarleton coaches called for the two-point conversion, and Grantham again went to the right side on a keeper and found the winning two-point conversion to give the Texans the 57-56 double overtime victory. Tarleton finished the afternoon with 530 yards of total offense, including 234 yards rushing and 296 yards through the air. The Javelinas had 402 yards of offense, including 238 yards on the ground and 164 yards passing. Robertson has 19 carries for 131 yards and a touchdown while Roderick Smith had 13 carries for 67 and a score. Grantham had five rushes for 35 yards and a score while Demby had two carries for one yard and a touchdown. Grantham threw for 296 yards and three touchdowns and was 20of-40 with one interception. Hobson had 10 receptions for 188 yards and two touchdowns while Guinn had four catches for 27 yards and a score.

The Players

ELLENSBURG, Wash. - The No. 12 Tarleton Texans had a hard time running the ball Saturday in the second round of the NCAA Division II playoff against No. 1 Central Washington, and just nine first downs were logged by the Texans in a 27-6 loss in Ellensburg, Wash. Tarleton’s season closed with the loss as the Texans finished 11-3 overall. The Texans handed the ball over on two fumbles, and the Wildcats scored 10 points off of those turnovers, while the Texans had an interception and had just three points. One of the Texan turnovers was deep into Wildcat territory. The Texans gained just 178 yards of total offense, Tarleton’s second worse out of the season after Abilene Christian held Tarleton to 172 total yards. On Saturday, Tarleton gained 192 yards through the air, but the Texans were limited to minus-17 yards on the ground. Bradley Bullitt intercepted a Cole Morgan pass and then lateralled the ball to Jeremy Sifford who returned it to the CWU 39-yard line to set up the first score of the game when Garrett Lindholm made a 39-yard field goal with 4:07 left in the first quarter. The score came after six plays and Tarleton covered just four yards in the scoring drive to make it 3-0 Texans. On the next drive for the Wildcats, Morgan hit Johnny Spevak for a 48yard touchdown. Garrett Rolsma had the extra point to put the home team ahead 7-3 with 2:33 left in the opening quarter. The drive took three plays to cover 50 yards. The Wildcats stretched the lead to 14-3 with 10:16 left in the first half when Randall Eldridge punched it in from two yards away. Rolsma added the kick to cap the two-play 15-yard drive that was set up by a Roderick Smith fumble at the Tarleton 22-yard line. The ball was scooped up by Taylor Breitzman and returned to the Tarleton 15. The Texans took the next drive 48 yards on 10 plays in 4:03 to set up a 31-yard field goal by Lindholm. The Texans trailed 14-6 with 6:03 on the clock. CWU then added a field goal with 1:39 remaining in the second quarter when Rolsma connected on a 27-yard attempt to close an eight-play, 71-yard drive that took 4:24 off the clock. The Wildcats led 17-6 at the half. The Texans stopped the Wildcats’ first drive of the second half, and the offense was driving down the field when Roderick Smith caught a screen pass from Scott Grantham, but the senior running back again fumbled – this time at the CWU 23-yard line. The home team then took the ball 69 yards on six plays to stretch its lead to 20-6 when Rolsma hit a 30-yard field goal with 8:07 left in the third quarter. Neither team scored again until the Wildcats put the last point of the game on the board. Eldridge punched the ball in from three yards out to end a nine-play, 67-yard drive. The kick by Rolsma put the final tally on the board with CWU winning, 27-6. Evan Robertson had 26 yards to lead the Texans’ rushing game on 10 carries. Keith Demby had one carry for two yards while Smith had five carries for minus-six yards and both fumbles. Grantham was 14-of-33 for 192 yards and was sacked twice. Devin Guinn led the team with three catches for 45 yards while Arthur Buckingham had three receptions for 34 yards. The Wildcats totaled 409 yards of total offense, including 122 yards on the ground and 287 yards through the air. Morgan was 21-of-31 for 287 yards and a touchdown with one sack and one interception. Spevak led the squad with five catches for 97 yards and a score while Eldridge had 18 carries for 101 yards and two touchdowns. Tarleton is now 2-3 all-time in Division II playoff games.

The Lone Star Conference

122

Long known as a leader in intercollegiate athletics, the Lone Star Conference (LSC) is an innovative athletics conference that aims to provide a superior competitive experience for member institutions and to allow for comprehensive development of student-athletes through academic services and life skills programming. The LSC continues to build upon its proud history while intending to be recognized as the premier NCAA Division II conference in the nation. The league’s mission is to foster student participation and success among member institutions in Division II intercollegiate athletics as an integral part of each institution’s total educational program. The LSC strives for academic excellence, stresses involvement within the community, and prides itself in upholding traditions while continually seeking new opportunities to provide student-athletes with a unique and superior experience. The LSC - founded on April 25, 1931 - has developed from a fiveteam conference of Texas-based schools to a nine-member league that spans three states (Texas, Oklahoma and New Mexico). The league continues to assist its member institutions in the maintenance of intercollegiate athletic programs that are compatible with the highest standards of education and competitive sports. Throughout the league’s 82-year history, various institutions have competed under the LSC banner. Today, only Texas A&M UniversityCommerce (then East Texas State) remains from the original group that was formed in 1931 when North Texas State, Southwest Texas State, Sam Houston State and Stephen F. Austin withdrew from the old Texas Intercollegiate Athletic Association. The membership alignment has changed over the years, with current members having been added from 1954 to 1995. Texas A&MKingsville (formerly Texas A&I) joined in 1954, and Angelo State in 1968. Conference membership remained within the Texas borders until 1984 when Eastern New Mexico was admitted. Since then, the LSC has included members from Arkansas and Oklahoma. Cameron (1988, 1996) was added near the outset of an expansion phase, while Texas Woman’s (1989) and previous members West Texas A&M (1986, 1993) and Tarleton State (1968, 1994) joined the league soon after. Midwestern State was admitted early in 1995, while Harding reconnected with the league as an affiliate member in track and field in 2013. Past members of the LSC include Trinity, Houston, Lamar, Howard Payne, Sul Ross State, McMurry, Harding, Ouachita Baptist, Central Oklahoma, East Central (Okla.), Northeastern State (Okla.), Southeastern Oklahoma, Southwestern Oklahoma, Abilene Christian and Incarnate Word.

The LSC conducts conference championships in 16 sports (seven men and nine women). Men’s championships include football, cross country, basketball, baseball, indoor track and field, outdoor track and field and golf. Women’s titles are determined in volleyball, soccer, cross country, basketball, softball, indoor track and field, outdoor track and field, tennis and golf.

Lone Star Conference Hall of Honor

The Coaches

Former Tarleton State football standout James Dearth has been named one of three inductees into the Lone Star Conference Hall of Honor, the league office announced in early August. Along with Dearth, the 2013 inductees also includes another football standout in Angelo State’s Clayton Weishuhn and a previous sports information director, Garner Roberts from Abilene Christian. These former players and administration staff make up the 2013 class of inductees for the LSC Hall of Honor, which recognizes outstanding individuals who have brought pride and honor to the conference through their contributions as an athlete or who have demonstrated a longterm commitment to the betterment of the conference as a coach or administrator. The inductees were chosen by a panel of athletic administrators throughout the league. “This year’s class is very deserving and seems to represent the contrasting ways people have been associated with our league over the years. You have a guy like James, who accomplished a whole lot in a very brief period of time, and then a guy like Garner, who really has made lifelong contributions to the conference. And, of course, Clayton’s experience of achieving individual success while also helping his team to accomplish national prominence is to be celebrated. These three truly speak to the tradition of our conference and are joining their rightful place among other Lone Star Conference greats,” said LSC Commissioner Stan Wagnon. Each of the inductees will receive the LSC’s signature Hall of Honor award, a 15-inch custom-sculpted eagle figurine mounted on a cherry wood base. The awards for Dearth, Roberts and Weishuhn are to be presented this fall. Here is a closer look at each of the 2013 inductees to the LSC Hall of Honor: James Dearth, Tarleton State, Football: Dearth, who is TSU’s first LSC Hall of Honor inductee, was a two-time second team All-American in football and an All-American in the shot put. Drafted in 1996 in the sixth round by the Cleveland Browns, he is a 12-year veteran of the NFL as a deep snapper. Dearth played for the Texans from 1996-98, tallying 77 catches for 992 yards and nine TDs in three seasons. He actually started at quarterback in TSU’s opening game in 1996 before moving to tight end, where he twice was named first team All-LSC South Division and second team NCAA Division II All-America. The Scurry, Texas, native was named the 1998 LSC South Offensive Lineman of the Year as he finished his senior season with 19 catches for 333 yards in the final four games. He also earned All-America honors in the shot put in 1998 while competing for Tarleton’s track and field team. Dearth was inducted into the TSU Hall of Fame in 2012. Dearth was enshrined into the Tarleton Athletics Hall of Fame Garner Roberts, Abilene Christian, Sports Information Director: Roberts served ACU as its Sports Information Director for 25 years from 1973-98, watching the Wildcats win 41 national championships and 89 Lone Star Conference titles, and then worked at the university in various marketing roles until 2004. He also served as the LSC media relations director from 1984-95, while still performing his duties at ACU. Roberts was inducted into the ACU Sports Hall of Fame in October 1999 as the 11th recipient of the Lifetime Achievement Award. A 1970 ACU graduate, he has worked at athletics events all over the globe, including track and field opening and closing ceremonies at the 1984 Olympic Games in Los Angeles. In 1987, Roberts received CoSIDA’s Warren Berg Award and is a member of the CoSIDA Hall of Fame.

Clayton Weishuhn, Angelo State, Football: Weishuhn was a threetime first team All-LSC selection during his career from 1978-81 and one of the top defensive players to wear an ASU uniform. He played during the most successful era in Ram football as ASU posted a 39-8-1 record during his four years with the program. Weishuhn was a part of Ram teams that made three-straight postseason appearances, the only such streak in school history. As a freshman, he was a member of the ASU football team that won the 1978 NAIA national championship, going 14-0, the program’s only undefeated season. Weishuhn ended his playing career as the Rams’ all-time leading tackler with 523 stops, a record that he still holds to this day. After earning second team All-American honors as a junior, he was a consensus first team All-American pick after his senior season in 1981 after setting the school record with 173 tackles. Weishuhn earned first team All-LSC acclaim after each of his three final seasons (1979-81) and was a two-time selection for the J.V. Sikes Award (1980-81) given to the outstanding lineman in the LSC. He is one of nine former ASU players to go on to a playing career in the NFL as he was drafted by the New England Patriots in the third round of the 1982 draft.

Head Strength and Conditioning Coach, Rod Cole, leads the way in providing his athletes with an intense workout specifically aimed at maximizing potential and gaining competitive edge.

Facilities

Tarleton Memorial Stadium Memorial Stadium on the campus of Tarleton State University

was completed in 1977. Recent renovations to the west stands has increased seating capacity to 7,000 spectators for athletic events. The concrete bleachers rest against a dirt berm on the east (home) side of the field with a center section featuring 750 seats with back rests forming a purple “T”. The lower level features a concession stand with restrooms, while the press box resides on the upper level. The press box is heated and air-conditioned and is more than 100 feet long. It includes ample working space for press, scouts, sideline communications, film crews, statisticians, public address announcer, scoreboard operators, home and visitor radio stations, and a VIP room. The Memorial Stadium field surface got a new look in 2004 when artificial turf was added. The endzones are painted purple with white lettering: Tarleton in the south zone and Texans in the north zone. There is a block T in the middle of the field facing the home side. A jumbotron was also installed on the north end of the field with the old scoreboard being moved to the south end of the stadium. In 2006, a new restroom and concession area was built on the visitor’s side of the stadium. Oscar Frazier Memorial Track, an eight-lane, all-weather track borders the artificial grass football field and is encircled by a chain link fence. The stadium is bordered east and west by hardsurfaced parking lots, north by the intramural complex, and south by the Physical Education Field Facility, completed in 1989. Memorial Stadium is easily accessible, as it is located north of Business 377 (West Washington Street) on Harbin Drive.

The Texans practice on the northeast corner of the fields adjacent to Memorial Stadium. The Tarleton football program has two complete fields that offer plenty of room for the Texans to workout and prepare for competition. The fields are marked with lines and hash marks so that the Texans will have the best preparation for game day. Next to the two fields is a short field marked for individual and group workouts. The Texans are the only team practicing on the fields in the fall, though the south end of the fields is converted to a throwing area during track and field season, and the facility is locked when the Texans are not practicing.

Tarleton State Traditions

Purple Poo

The LSC

The Plowboys In 1984, a group of interested students established a spirit organization on campus and re-adopted the name “Plowboys,” which was the former mascot of the athletic teams. The Plowboys attend athletic events and other campus activities and are familiar to students because of their white shirts, hats and purple chaps.

The Purple Poo take in the sites of Cowboys Stadium at the Lone Star Football Festival. WWW.TARLETONSPORTS.COM

Texan Football The University

Upon joining the Texas A&M System in 1917, the Tarleton athletic teams became known as the “Junior Aggies.” In 1924, Coach W.J. Wisdom became disenchanted with the name and held a contest to select a new mascot. The winner would receive $5 and Wisdom would be the sole judge. One day, Wisdom was walking across campus and contemplating the fact that Tarleton was primarily an agricultural school when the name “Plowboys” popped into his head. He immediately adopted the new mascot and kept the $5. The symbol of the Plowboys, was a muscular young man in overalls pushing a hand plow. In 1950, the mascot withstood a challenge when four additional names were suggested for a student vote. Plowboys won by a 2-1 margin. With the University’s changing image, however, another election was held in 1961 and students approved the name “Texans.” The horse and rider became the new athletic mascot of the University.

History/Records

The Texan Mascot

At the height of the Tarleton-North Texas Agriculture College rivalry, frequent raids by opposing students were common. Bonfires were the primary objectives, and as described in the J-TAC newspaper (Tarleton’s school paper), the students were driven by “the desire to cause premature conflagration of the accumulated rubbish.” On Nov. 29, two days before the traditional football game, and in retaliation for the burning of the NTAC bonfire by Tarleton students the night before, an NTAC student and accomplice flew over the Tarleton campus and attempted to bomb the bonfire. In their efforts to repel the air attack, Tarleton students on guard threw various objects at the plane. L.V. Risinger hurled a 2x4 into the air which struck the propeller and disabled the aircraft. The pilot glided over what is now the Hall of Presidents and crash-landed in a clump of trees. While the NTAC student and his buddy were launching the air attack, three truck loads of NTAC students were attempting to invade campus by land. Both the land and air attacks were repulsed. The NTAC students were captured, given a block-T haircut and sent on their way. The Homecoming bonfire has been dedicated to L.V. Risinger, defender of the bonfire, who died in 1994.

2012 Review

The TTS and TTP were precursors of the modern Purple Poo. The still-secret organization makes Poo signs each Monday night, which appear on campus every Tuesday morning. The signs occasionally comment on campus political life and student life, but most promote school spirit. These signs are nailed to trees on campus. Members appear in public dressed in costumes and identity is closely guarded.

The Airplane Incident

The Players

Legend has it that John Tarleton, founder of the University, had a pet duck named Oscar P who went everywhere with him. The two were so close that Oscar P is said to be buried with Tarleton. At various student activities, the Purple Poo rally Tarleton students by raising the spirit of Oscar P. This is done by kneeling and pounding the ground while calling out “Hey, Oscar P.” Although this has become one of the favorite traditions, there is no evidence to verify the story.

The Coaches

Oscar P

Formed when Tarleton was a junior college, the Ten Tarleton Peppers (TTP) and Ten Tarleton Sisters (TTS) are the two oldest organizations on campus. These spirit organizations for men and women were formed in 1921 and 1923 respectively. New members of these secret organizations are selected by current members. When first organized, the two groups met late at night and prepared signs for upcoming athletic events. The basic signs at this time were made of canvas and were stretched between trees on campus. The clubs met in the attic of the old recreation hall which is now the Administration Annex. The identities of the senior members were disclosed in group photos when the yearbooks were distributed. Senior members stood facing the camera while others faced away from the camera with various and sundry items placed over their heads. The groups are sponsored by faculty and staff members.

Student Recreation Center The new 70,000-square-foot sports recreation center, complete with weight rooms, track and gym, opened in fall 2007. The two-story building holds four racquetball courts, a weight room, cardio equipment as well as multi-purpose rooms, classroom and office space. The new facility is also home to a climbing wall and an “outdoor pursuits” area, allowing students the opportunity to sign up for such outdoor items as kayaks, tents, and camping equipment. The Tarleton Rec Center’s mission is to provide opportunities to engage in activities, programs and special events that promote healthy active lifestyles, leadership development, social interaction and educational opportunities. These opportunities exist through programs, services and facilities that reflect the diverse needs of the Tarleton State University Family. The facility is located adjacent to the home side of Memorial Stadium.

Dining Facility Tarleton State University has completed a state-of-the-art dining facility. The building opened in 2010, ending 80 years of service for the old facility. The 42,000-square-feet structure replaced the original dining hall constructed in 1928, and features buffet lines with various cuisines and a salad bar. The two-story facility also features a convenience store, executive meeting rooms and a cafe with a wireless network. Tarleton’s previous dining hall only accommodated approximately 350 students at one time, whereas the new facility will have a capacity of 700 students. For student convenience, the new dining hall is an extension of the Barry B. Thompson Student Center. The new facility sits between the Student Center and the Tarleton Control Center on Vanderbilt Street in the center of campus.

The Tarleton State University Softball Field has served as home to the TexAnns since the program was started in 1996. Construction on the field began in the spring of 1995 and the field was ready for play in January of 1996. Tarleton played its first varsity game on the field on February 19, 1996, winning the second game of a doubleheader against Schreiner College in extra innings. The field dimensions are 190’ down the lines and 220’ to straight away center field. The field itself is laid out in the same direction as the adjacent Cecil Ballow Field, Tarleton’s home for baseball games. Lights were added for the first time in the summer of 2011. A scoreboard is in left field and the field is surrounded by chain link fence with windscreen. Among the improvements since the field was initially constructed are the installation of permanent bleachers with a seating capacity of 250, the construction of a press box, and the painting of the Tarleton softball logo (by former Tarleton third baseman Jalayne Rinewalt) on the Tarleton (third-base side) dugout. The grounds also include a hitting tunnel, locker rooms and storage facilities.

Wisdom Gymnasium is located in the Health and Physical Education Building on the northwest corner of the campus, adjacent to Memorial Stadium. The facility serves as home for both the Texans and the TexAnns basketball teams. The gymnasium, named for long-time Tarleton athletics director and coach W.J. Wisdom, was built in 1970 at a cost of $1.3 million. A $1.7 million expansion project was completed in 1977. The total physical education complex covers 114,343 square feet of floor space. The Texan and TexAnn basketball teams play in the main gym that seats 3,000 spectators in both the upper and lower seating arrangements combined. Seating on the lower south side has chair backs, which were installed in 1999, while new student bleachers were installed in the summer of 2010. A new hardwood floor was installed in the summer of 2010, and it has a paint job with the 3D T logo in center court. The men’s and women’s basketball locker rooms have received several updates over the last couple of years, including new carpeting, new lockers and new technology for watching film. The TexAnn volleyball team plays in its own gym, known as the “South Gym” or the “Volleyball Gym.” The extra gym was completed in 1977 as part of a $1.7 million expansion project and quickly became the home court for the TexAnn volleyball team. The court is a hardwood floor which can be viewed by a capacity crowd of 700 spectators.

Cecil Ballow Baseball Complex has been home to Tarleton State baseball since the program was reinstated in 1988. Construction of the facility began in January of 1987, and it was officially named the Cecil Ballow Baseball Complex in December of the same year to honor the school’s former Dean of Students who also was a pioneer in baseball at Tarleton, coaching the team for 10 years. The field sits adjacent to the Tarleton Horticultural Building on the south side of West Washington Street (Business 377). The playing surface is natural grass and the outfield is framed in center and right by pecan trees. The left field fence runs parallel to Washington Street with a state-of-the-art scoreboard in left center field. The dimensions of the field are 320 feet down the lines, 365 feet in the alleys, and 400 feet to center. An extended net behind and above the left field fence keeps home run balls from entering traffic on Washington Street. In 1996 the field was given a new look with the addition of a 120’ long and 10’ high extension to the center field fence. The field was lighted for nighttime play in March of 1990. The baseball facility features red brick enclosed dugouts, while permanent seating for 550 spectators wraps around the fence behind home plate. There are bleacher seats down the baselines and the reserved center section has chairback seating. A fully functional press box is located atop of the center seating section and provides ample working space for the scoreboard operator, official statistician and members of the media.

Memorial Stadium on the campus of Tarleton State University was completed in 1977. An artificial surface was installed by ProGreen on the field in 2004, turning the surface into one of the best in the Lone Star Conference. Recent renovations to the west stands has increased seating capacity to 7,000 spectators for athletic events. The concrete bleachers rest against a dirt berm on the east (home) side of the field with a center section featuring 816 seats with back rests forming a purple “T”. The lower level features a concession stand with restrooms, while the press box resides on the upper level. The press box is heated and air-conditioned and is more than 100 feet long. It includes ample working space for press, scouts, sideline communications, film crews, statisticians, public address announcer, scoreboard operators, home and visitor radio stations, and a VIP room. Oscar Frazier Memorial Track, an eight-lane, all-weather track borders the artificial grass football field. The stadium is bordered east and west by hard-surfaced parking lots, north by the intramural complex, and south by the Physical Education Field Facility, completed in 1989. The stadium is easy to access from Business 377 (Washington Street) by turning at the Harbin Street intersection.

Texan Weight Room

164

Tarleton State University’s Athletic Weight Room at Wisdom Gym sets the standard for the Lone Star Conference strength and conditioning facilities. With the overall goal of producing successful elite level teams, the purpose of the program is to maximize athletic potential in each and every athlete through periodized year-round lifting. Texan and TexAnn athletes elevate their athletic potential and athletic success as measured through the ability to move more freely and controlled while reducing injury potential (and decreased healing time, if an injury does occur). Assistant Athletic Director for Athletic Performance Rod Cole leads the way in providing his athletes with an intense workout specifically aimed at maximizing potential and gaining competitive edge. The focus and intensity in the weight room is targeted to be the same as in a game; thus, athletes attack the weights with high intensity, replicating movements of the sport. The spacious two level, high ceiling facility holds over 15,000 pounds of free weights and is a major reason why Tarleton is able to aggressively hit the weights. As most sports are upright power sports involving multi-joint movements, the Tarleton program is aligned to support these movements by being equipped with seven Olympicstyle platforms, a full line of Hammer Strength equipment, 10 Power Lift Squat Racks and Power Lift Benches. The human body has a large dependency on the core (not just the abs) to move; therefore emphasis is placed on developing the core in the weight room. Athletes lift a large percentage of the time on their feet performing explosive free weight, multi-joint/muscle exercises to replicate movements and work the core. Olympic lifts using dumbbells and barbells are used to train speed, strength and power. The cardiovascular area is located on the second level, over looking the weight room, with an array of equipment from Life Fitness containing treadmills, elliptical machines, stair steppers and recumbent bike. A majority of athletes train on campus during the offseason as a result of the season success and gained competitive edge. During the offseason, a high emphasis is placed on helping athletes make great strides toward their athletic performance through integrated speed, conditioning and plyometric training in addition to their weight training. As most of Tarleton’s athletes remain on campus during the offseason, those athletes not on campus are provided with individualized, detailed workout plans to follow during the offseason with descriptive diagrams, detailed nutrition information and much more on the web. In gaining the competitive edge, the Tarleton Strength and Conditioning program is much more than a weight room. The program encompasses all of the components of movement involved in speed, agility and quickness. Athletes are monitored and given specific exercises with instructions for movements needed to improve. Cole educates athletes regarding the importance of nutrition-toathletic performance, healthy eating habits, achieving a proper bodyweight and much more.

Reisman has also been involved in facility improvements while heading the Tarleton athletics programs. Memorial Stadium received an artificial surface in 2004 and a new concession stand Lonn Reisman and bathrooms have been Athletics Director added on the visitors’ side. The lobby of Wisdom Gym looks much different with the building of the Hall of Fame wall and trophy cases as well as cosmetic changes throughout the building. Both the Tarleton tennis courts and softball complex have been upgraded with state-of-the-art lighting systems. Another area that has improved under Reisman is athletic scholarships. Of course, the Texans joined the Lone Star Conference and the NCAA Division II ranks in 1994, and now all but two sports (men’s and women’s track and field) are fully funded in scholarship aid. In 2006, Reisman led the way for Tarleton students to vote for an athletics fee that helped fund the scholarships and improve the overall well-being of the athletics department and its programs. The athletics director led another charge for updated fees to increase over the next two years to help the Texans and TexAnns keep up with the rest of the LSC and nation. Reisman has also helped to push the academic success of the athletics program. The Texans and TexAnns boast a higher graduation rate than the overall university graduation rate. As basketball coach, Reisman has positioned the Texans as a national power. He led Tarleton to a 520-226 record over the past 25 seasons, with last year’s team going 20-10 and reaching the NCAA Division II South Central Regional after capturing the Lone Star Conference Championship Tournament title. In 2005-06, his team finished 27-7 after winning its second straight NCAA Division II South Central Regional title and reaching the Elite Eight in Springfield, Mass. Tarleton also won the Lone Star Conference South Division title and advanced to the LSC Tournament Championship game. To Reisman, it is not just about winning on the court that matters, he wants every Tarleton athletics program to excel both on and off the field. Graduating students is more important than winning any contest. “I want each and every program to not just say they are competing for a national championship, I want them to actually do so. I believe with the success we have had in the recent years, this should become a reality,” Reisman said.

Lonn Reisman begins his 22nd year as the athletics director at Tarleton State University where he will also begin his 26th season as head coach of the men’s basketball program. Under Reisman’s direction, Tarleton is flourishing not only on the basketball court, but in nearly every sport. The athletics director’s responsibilities extend far outside the lines on the playing surfaces. One must be more than just an administrator. He or she must also be a public relation’s specialist, a catalyst and a fundraiser. As Tarleton grows, the expectations and responsibilities grow. Reisman has spent the last 20 years focusing on building the Texan Club into one of the leading booster organizations in NCAA Division II. “In fact, our booster club is better than a lot of Division I schools,” Reisman said. “However, the success of the club depends on raising the money every year.” The Texan Club has previously been recognized as a successful organization in the National Association of College Directors of Athletics publication for its fundraising efforts and success. “People around the country recognize we have a successful athletics program and booster club,” Reisman said. “When you walk into Wisdom Gym, it is apparent there is lots of support for our teams when you see all of the banners on the wall.” Of course, the point of the sponsorships is for more than hanging signs on the wall. “We raise a lot of money,” Reisman said. “We raise enough to fulfill 10 full scholarships, and the rest of the money goes for student-athlete enhancement through study hall tutors and monitors as well as supporting the programs. We definitely would not be as successful if we didn’t have the support of the Texan Club corporate sponsors and individual members.” The Texan Club has been around since the early 1990s, and Reisman said each year the organization keeps getting bigger, but so does the cost of the success. “It took 15 years to get the sports programs to a national presence in Division II, but we want to be pushing for a national championship in every sport,” Reisman said. “Our programs are now being recognized not only on a regional level, but nationally as well.” “We are at a pivotal status in our program, and most of the sports are knocking on the door of a national championship,” Reisman said. “We have to work with the Texan Club to help provide these coaches with the support and backing they need to get there.” In a time of budget cutting and decreased spending, an athletics department should focus not on how to save money, but on how to make money. Bridging the gap between the community and the athletics department is a key to making a booster club and corporate sponsorship program effective. “The bridge we built several years ago is still solid and continues to get people involved,” Reisman said. “As you see the enthusiasm grow, the athletics director needs to learn to ask for help because he or she can’t do it all on his/her own.” The efforts of Reisman and his staff have led the Texan
