BUSH STADIUM
Built in 1978, Bush Stadium at the Averitt Express Baseball Complex has been the home of Tennessee Tech baseball for more than 40 years. The Golden Eagles moved into the stadium at the start of the 1978 season, and won the first game ever played there, a 7-6 win over Eastern Kentucky. But Bush Stadium hasn’t always looked the way it does today. Over the past 15 years the facility has seen tremendous upgrades. In 1995 the stadium saw the addition of its 3,240 square-foot clubhouse. Among the features of the clubhouse are player and coaches’ locker rooms, coaches’ offices, team weight room and a team lounge area.
house game management, home and visiting media. In 2000 the team added a batting cage to the facility. The cage is inside a 3,600 square foot covered building adjacent to the clubhouse. With all the additions over the years, Bush Stadium at the Averitt Express Baseball Complex has transformed into a first-class baseball facility, and is truly a home field advantage to Tech baseball players.
In 1997 lights were added to the facility and the Golden Eagles played their first night game at home on March 25, 1997, a 9-6 loss to Tennessee. At the time, Tech was only the fourth school in the Ohio Valley Conference to have a lighted baseball field. The facility was dedicated as “Bush Stadium” in 1997 in honor of Howell W. Bush, who donated the funds needed to bring lights to the facility. The next addition to the facility came just a year later, in 1998, when a new press box was added to the top of the stands. The 460 square foot press box features three separate rooms to

BRAGGA
HEAD COACH • 13TH SEASON • KENTUCKY, 1994 • 2010, 2013 OVC COACH OF THE YEAR The 2013 and 2010 Ohio Valley Conference Coach of the Year and the 2013 and 2009 Tennessee Baseball Coaches Association Coach of the Year, Matt Bragga just finished his 12th year at the helm of the Tennessee Tech baseball team. The Tennessee Tech head coach has made the baseball program a model of consistency. On the field, over the past eight years, his teams have the highest average conference finish of any team in the 11-team Ohio Valley Conference, including three championship seasons. The Golden Eagle baseball squad has also had players sign with Major League Baseball for nine straight years, including an OVC-record six student-athletes signing after the 2014 season. In the classroom, his past 11 teams have the 10 highest team GPA marks since records started being kept in 1972. The 2014 team holds the record with a 3.20 GPA and the 2015 squad ranks right behind with a 3.17 mark. Bragga’s 2014 squad tied the school record for wins, a record it had set in 2013, as it became one of only two OVC teams in conference history to win 40 games in back to back seasons. The 2014 team not only had six players sign with a Major League Baseball team, it had four players drafted in the first 12 rounds. The 2014 season also saw a school-record two student-athletes named post season TPX Louisville Slugger Collegiate Baseball News First Team All-Americans and one named to the second team. Only Oregon State could match this feat. The 2014 club was also No. 1 in the country in runs scored per game (8.3), total home runs (83), (out-slugging their opponents by a margin of 52 home runs), home runs per game (1.41), and slugging percentage (.495). It also ranked seventh in the country in fielding percentage at .979. 2013 was a record-breaking year for Bragga’s squad as they compiled a school record 40 wins and an Ohio Valley Conference record 24 victories. The 2013 squad ranked near the top in the nation in several major categories, covering all facets of the game: pitching, defense, and offense. The team ranked seventh in the country in scoring (7.3 runs/game), 13th in fielding percentage (.979), seventh in home runs per game (.95), 26th in batting average (.303), eighth in slugging percentage (.464), and second in strikeouts per nine innings (9.0). The 2013 club also had eight members make the AllOVC first or second team, six of whom were underclassmen. The team also had one National Player of the week and one National Pitcher of the week. The 2013 baseball team tied a school record with a 14-game win streak and beat the No. 2 nationally ranked Vanderbilt Commodores on the road. No team in any sport, in the history of Tennessee Tech athletics had ever beaten a higher ranked team prior to the win at Vanderbilt. At the conclusion of the 2013 season, Bragga’s Golden Eagles compiled an 8-4 record against teams that reached the 64 team NCAA Regional field including a mark of 5-3 against opponents ranked in the top 35 in the country. Off the field, the 2013 team excelled as well, as they set a program record for team G.P.A. They finished the fall semester with a 3.177 mark and bettered that in the spring with 3.215. Twenty-six out of 35 team members had a 3.0 G.P.A. or higher this spring. This is the fifth year out of the past six where a new team G.P.A. record was set and then broken the next school year. In 2012, one of Bragga’s former student-athletes, Stephen Pryor, reached the Major Leagues with the Seattle Mariners. Pryor had been a fifth round pick of the Seattle Mariners in 2010 and flashed a 100 mph fastball in his MLB debut against the Chicago White Sox in June of 2012. Offensively in 2012, the Golden Eagles were splendid, ranking 26th in the nation in batting average (.299), 13th in home runs per game (.92), 19th in on base percentage (.391), and 29th in slugging percentage (.434). On the mound, Matthew Shepherd helped lead the pitching staff and was drafted

COACHING STAFF by the San Diego Padres in the June MLB draft. Five players from the 2012 team were named All-Conference and power-hitting first baseman Zach Stephens was named second team All-Region. The 2011 Golden Eagles finished fourth in the league standings as four student-athletes were named to All-OVC teams. Slugger Zach Stephens was named to the TPX freshman All-American Team and 2010 First Team All-American Chad Oberacker was drafted for the second time in his Tech career, going to the Oakland Athletics. In the classroom, the 2011 team posted the best team G.P.A. in school history with a 2.94 combined fall and spring mark. In 2010 the Golden Eagles finished the season winning 15 of their last 16 conference games to win the Ohio Valley Conference regular season championship, their second title in as many years. The team was also voted the league’s Sportsmanship Award winner. 2010 also marked the first time in history that the Tech program had won 30+ games in a season for three straight years. Individually, five team members were voted to All-Conference teams and sluggers Chad Oberacker and A.J. Kirby-Jones were both named TPX/ABCA first team All-Americans, the first time in school history that two players had been named first team AllAmerica in one decade, let alone one season. Beyond being ranked 29th nationally in batting average (.332) and 12th in strikeouts per nine innings (8.7), the team also boasted the second highest team G.P.A. in its history, garnering a 2.915. The 2010 club also set a program record for Major League Baseball draft picks in a season when four Golden Eagles heard their names called in the MLB Draft. Right handed flame thrower Stephen Pryor went to the Seattle Mariners in the fifth round, all-time home run king A.J. Kirby-Jones went to the Oakland A’s in the ninth round, all-time hits leader Chad Oberacker went to the St. Louis Cardinals in the 19th round, and power left handed pitcher Adam Liberatore was chosen by the Tampa Bay Rays in the 21st round. All four of these young men are still playing as Pryor is in the big leagues with the Mariners, Liberatore in Triple A with the Rays, Oberacker in Double A with the A’s, and Kirby-Jones in Double A with the Padres. In 2009, the Golden Eagles made a thrilling run to sweep the Ohio Valley Conference baseball tournament and eliminate No. 14 Alabama from the NCAA regionals, setting the standard for what proved to be an epic 2010 season. They finished the 2009 season with a 31-24-1 record, marking the first backto-back 30-win seasons in Tech history. The Golden Eagles swept the OVC tournament, going 4-0, including back-to-back extra-inning victories over Jacksonville State to clinch the OVC title.

COACHING STAFF They went on to the NCAA regional in Clemson, S.C., where they eliminated No. 14 Alabama before being eliminated by eventual regional-champion Clemson. The Golden Eagles had two all-conference team members, six all-tournament team members, and the OVC tournament MVP in A.J. KirbyJones. Alex Henry was also named to the all-regional team at the Clemson Regional. Following the 2009 season, pitcher Ryan Dennick was drafted by Major League Baseball’s Kansas City Royals. Off the field the 2009 club established the top G.P.A. mark in school history with a 2.928 mark for the year. Bragga has built a solid foundation for his program — on the field and in the classroom — during his nine and a half years as head coach, and knows that Tech baseball will continue to reach new heights in and out of the Ohio Valley Conference. In 2011, 10 Golden Eagles were named to the OVC Commissioner’s Honor Roll, bringing the total number of players who have earned the honor to 65. This is the second time at least 10 Golden Eagles have been named to the honor roll in a season under Bragga. The veteran coach continues his work toward redefining the program with high ideals and even greater expectations.

Taking over the head coaching reins in January 2004, Bragga has shown the dedication needed to win multiple OVC championships, and his players exhibit that same down-to-earth determination, day-in and day-out. His plan has brought about marked improvements in the team’s on-field performance, academic performance, alumni support and program facilities. On the field, Bragga’s silent resolve has taken the program from a 13-42 record in his first full year in 2005, improving 5.5 games in 2006 with a record of 18-36, making an eight game improvement in 2007 with a record of 26-28, and another seven game improvement in 2008 as the Golden Eagles went 35-23-1, leading to the OVC championship and an NCAA Regional berth in 2009 and two more OVC Championships in 2010 and 2013. With success on the recruiting trails, Bragga continues to take the baseball program to a new level. Before taking the head coaching position at Tech, Bragga spent three and a half years as an assistant coach at Birmingham Southern College under head coach Brian Shoop from July 2000 to December 2003. He spent the majority of his time at BSC working as the hitting and outfielder coach as well as recruiting for the Panthers. Under Bragga’s direction, BSC hitters batted a combined .316 during the 2002 and 2003 seasons. In 2004, after accepting the job as Tennessee Tech head coach Bragga, led his former Birmingham-Southern ball club win the Big South Conference title, winning 47 games and losing just 18. They received an at-large birth to the NCAA Regional’s in Athens, GA in BSC’s first year eligible for NCAA D-I post season play. In 2003, the BSC team went 33-18 as 10 Panthers hit over .300 for a team batting average of .318. The Panthers scored 7.9 runs per game which ranked 15th in NCAA Division I. For the 2002 season, BSC’s first as an NCAA D-I member, the Panthers finished with a 32-20 record. Before moving to the NCAA Division I for the 2002 season, the Panthers won the school’s first ever NAIA National Championship in 2001 as 11 Panthers hit .300 or better and averaged 8.5 runs per game. In 2001, the Panthers set a school record for most wins in a season, going 55-11. Bragga also owned some head coaching experience before coming to Tech. At the age of 25, prior to his role at Birmingham Southern, Bragga served as the head coach at Bevill State (Ala.) Community College for four seasons.

COACHING STAFF Bragga took over a Bevill State baseball program that, prior to his arrival, had an all-time record of 175-350 (.343), and was considered by many one of the worst programs in the state of Alabama. With the Bears going 39-20 in 1998, Bragga’s second season at Bevill State resulted in a school record for most wins in one season. That team also participated in the schools first-ever postseason tournament. In 1999, Bragga led his squad to a 40-19 record, surpassing his previous record and taking the team to another regional tournament. During his time at Bevill, his teams compiled a 148-86 record and BSCC went from a .343 winning percentage prior to Bragga’s arrival, to one of Alabama’s best Community/Junior College programs, amassing a remarkable .630 winning percentage during his time. Before jumping into the college ranks, Bragga served as head coach for the Junior American Legion Baseball Team Post 208 that won the Alabama state championship in 1996. That same year, he also took on the role as assistant coach for the Tuscaloosa County High School baseball squad. One aspect that makes Bragga such an influential coach, and what some describe as a player’s coach, is that he has coached and played at nearly every level of baseball. Bragga played his collegiate career for the University of Kentucky Wildcats, earning four letters from 1991 to 1994. He played multiple positions at Kentucky, including outfield, catcher, first base and designated hitter, and also excelled at the plate. Bragga earned multiple honors including second-team All-Southeast region and Southeastern Conference all-tournament first-team in 1993. In his senior season Bragga finished with a .408 batting average in SEC play, which ranked him second in the league. He also etched his name in the Kentucky baseball record books, ranking among UK’s all-time best in multiple season and career categories. During Bragga’s four-year career with UK, the baseball team compiled the most wins in any four-year period of UK baseball, a record which was recently broken by the 2005-2008 Kentucky squads. After graduating from Kentucky with a degree in communications, Bragga signed as a free agent with the Cincinnati Reds organization in 1994. He played one season in the Pioneer League with the Butte (Montana) Copper Kings before moving to Charleston, W.Va., to play with the Cincinnati Reds’ Single A affiliate the following season. Bragga earned his master’s degree from the University of Alabama. Matt is married to the former Elisa Currins, a 1997 graduate of the University of Alabama. The couple are the proud parents of two children — Luke and Emerson.

KIRBY-JONES
STUDENT ASSISTANT COACH • 1ST SEASON • TENNESSEE TECH, 2010
One of the most accomplished hitters to ever wear a Golden Eagle uniform, A.J. Kirby-Jones has returned to the program he led to two Ohio Valley Conference titles, taking on the title of student assistant coach after spending the previous six years in minor league and independent league baseball. In three seasons donning the purple and gold, Kirby-Jones established himself as the program’s most lethal slugger, setting school records for home runs, RBI and slugging percentage for a career, as well as home runs, walks and slugging percentage in a single season. To this day, he still holds three single-season and one career Tech record and if you narrow the records down to players who have played just three seasons, he ranks at the top of the list in six offensive categories. He helped lead the Golden Eagles to the 2009 OVC Tournament Championship and a berth in the NCAA Regionals, as well as the 2010 OVC regular season championship. Kirby-Jones put together a stellar career, but it was his 2010 campaign that really cemented his place in both Tech and Ohio Valley Conference lore. As a junior, the right-handed hitter shattered his own program record of 20 home runs with 26 long balls, tying the league record as well. On the year, he hit .388 with 19 doubles and the 26 dingers, driving in 71 runs and scoring 64 himself. He also set the program standard with 58 walks, leading to a .531 on base percentage. He slugged .858 on the year, more than 100 points higher than any other percentage in school history. At the end of it all, Kirby-Jones wrapped up a three-year career having hit .347 (still ranks 16th in program history) and finishing with 207 hits (10th), 49 doubles (T-4th), 51 home runs (1st), 190 RBI (1st), 143 runs scored (T-9th), 128 walks (2nd) and a .686 slugging percentage (1st). After littering his name throughout the Tech record books through three seasons, Kirby-Jones heard his name called in the 2010 MLB First Year Player Draft as the Oakland Athletics took the slugger with the 10th pick of the ninth round. He spent five seasons in the minor leagues, tallying 64 home runs and 66 doubles, as well as 235 RBI and 248 walks, in 401 career games. Kirby-Jones returned to Tennessee Tech University to finish his bachelor’s degree after officially retiring from professional baseball at the conclusion of last season.

OHIO VALLEY CONFERENCE
Top row from left: Beth DeBauche, Ohio Valley Conference Commissioner; Brad Walker, Associate Commissioner/Chief Operating Officer; Kyle Schwartz, Assistant Commissioner for Media Relations; Brian Pulley, Assistant Commissioner for External Affairs; Stephanie Castera, Assistant Commissioner for Institutional Services/ Senior Woman Administrator; Scott Krapf, Assistant Commissioner for Championships; Heather Brown, Director of Media Relations; Bryce Robinson , Director of Compliance and Digital Media; Jon Kuka, General Manager, OVC IMG Sports Marketing. Now in its 67th year, the Ohio Valley Conference continues to build on the success that has made it the nation’s eighth-oldest NCAA Division I conference. In May 2011 the Conference expanded for the second time in four years, adding Belmont University which began competition in the 2012-13 academic year. The addition of Belmont gave the OVC 12 members, the most the league has had at one time in its illustrious history. The move added a second team in the city of Nashville and was the first addition to the league since Southern Illinois University Edwardsville joined in 2008. Subsequently, the league has shown its stability over the past decade, seeing only one member institution depart over the past 14 years. The 2009-10 school year saw a change in leadership as Beth DeBauche was named the seventh full-time Commissioner in league history on July 28. The last three commissioners of the OVC have moved onto jobs as the commissioner of the Big Ten, Big 12 and the Mid-American Conferences. The OVC’s proud past dates back to 1948, but seeds for the new league were actually planted in 1941. Discussions were put on hold by World War II but reemerged Feb. 27-28, 1948 at the Kentucky Hotel in Louisville as Morehead State, Louisville and Evansville merged to form the OVC. Tennessee Tech joined the OVC the following year. In the 1950s, the OVC became a pioneer on a much more significant scale socially, breaking racial barriers to provide educational and athletic opportunities to AfricanAmericans. Through the past 66 years, 15 teams have won or shared the league’s football title. The list is led by Eastern Kentucky, winner of 21 outright or shared football crowns. Former member Middle Tennessee is next with 11 titles, followed by Tennessee Tech with 10. The first Division I-AA/FCS football playoff was held in 1978 with only four teams, which is the only year through present day that the OVC did not field a playoff representative. In the 1970s, women’s athletics began a rebirth on the national scene as the NCAA began sponsoring and marketing women’s sports. Recognizing the need to provide increased opportunities for female athletes, the OVC established women’s championships in the sports of basketball, tennis and track in 1977, with cross country and volleyball added over the next four years. Those sports were initially governed by the Association of Intercollegiate Athletics for Women (AIAW), but the overall strength of women’s programs in the league was demonstrated by the automatic bids the OVC
@TNTECH_BASEBALL
instantly received when the NCAA became the governing body in 1982. The playing field is not the only place where OVC athletes are working hard. The league also recognizes excellence in the classroom. Six Scholar-Athlete Awards are presented yearly to male and female athletes, while others are commended for their academic success by being Medal of Honor recipients or earning a spot on the Commissioner’s Honor Roll. Additionally, the league annually presents one institutional Academic Achievement Award, as well as separate team awards in each Conference-sponsored sport. Since the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA) Academic All-America program began, the Ohio Valley Conference has had 229 student-athletes honored with the award, including 50 over the last five years. Through the early years of the league, administrators wrestled with fan behavior due to the close proximity of the Conference members and the intense rivalries which developed. Just as it did decades ago, the OVC took the leadership
The Ohio Valley Conference 215 Centerview Drive, Suite 115 Brentwood, Tenn. 37027 (615) 371-1698 www.ovcsports.com
role on what has become a national issue. In 1995, the OVC implemented a first-of-its-kind “Sportsmanship Statement,” a policy which promotes principles of fair play, ethical conduct and respect for one’s opponent. The statement has become a model for others to follow across the nation, and has answered the challenge of the NCAA Presidents Commission to improve sportsmanship in collegiate athletics. Additionally, the OVC annually presents the Steve Hamilton Sportsmanship Award, in honor of the former Morehead State student-athlete, coach and athletics director, to a junior or senior student-athlete with significant athletic contributions who best exemplifies the characteristics of sportsmanship and citizenship. Most recently, the Conference has also implemented the OVC Institutional and Team Sportsmanship Awards, which are presented to one institution and 18 sportspecific teams voted by their peers to have best exhibited the standards of sportsmanship and ethical conduct as outlined by the OVC and NCAA. The vision of leadership demonstrated by the Founding Fathers in 1948 remains alive today as the Ohio Valley Conference prepares for the future. One example is in regard to the current trend in collegiate athletics administration for increased involvement of university presidents in setting policies and making rules. The presidents of OVC institutions, however, have always governed the Conference, long before presidential governance became a national theme. The Ohio Valley Conference sponsors the following sports: baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, tennis and track for men, and basketball, cross country, golf, soccer, softball, tennis, track and volleyball for women. In addition, the OVC also sponsors the combined men’s and women’s sport of rifle. Now in its seventh decade of competition, the Ohio Valley Conference has grown significantly from its humble beginnings while increasing the number of athletics opportunities it provides for students. Current league representatives include charter members Eastern Kentucky University, Morehead State University and Murray State University, along with Austin Peay State University, Belmont University, Eastern Illinois University, Jacksonville State University, Southeast Missouri State University, Southern Illinois University Edwardsville, Tennessee State University, Tennessee Technological University and the University of Tennessee at Martin.

A problem for pitchers every time he stepped to the plate, Oberacker stepped up his play to a whole new level in 2010, racking up a program-record 108 hits in 56 games while leading the Golden Eagles to the Ohio Valley Conference regular season championship. His performance still stands as the highest single-season total in league history and makes him the only Golden Eagle to ever eclipse the century mark in base hits in one season.

A four-year starter as a middle infielder, Bosheers plastered his name all over the Tech record book in his career, tallying a program-record 60 doubles in his four seasons in purple and gold. The four-time All-American represents one of just two Golden Eagles to ever post multiple 20-double seasons.

A speedster on the diamond for the entirety of his career, Maclin made a routine of stretching a typical double into so much more, tallying an program and Ohio Valley Conference record 10 triples in the 1971 season. More than twice as many as any other player has ever posted in school history, the mark helped Maclin cement his play as the program’s career leader in triples as well, legging out 16 in his four-year career.

In just two short years, Thomasson was no time making his presence felt in the Ohio Valley Conference, laying waste to pitching in a highly successful 2014 campaign. The three-time All-American set a program record with 76 RBI, ranking second in the nation with 22 long balls and helping the Golden Eagles lead all of collegiate baseball in home runs on the year.

One of the most potent offenses in program history, the 1997 squad had Malone to thank for a massive chunk of the scoring, literally. The four-year Golden Eagle dented home plate a program-record 77 times during the year, just a fraction of his 183 total runs scored, more than enough to help the team to an Ohio Valley Conference championship.

â– A.J. KIRBY-JONES
In just three years, Kirby-Jones made it his mission to see just how hard and far he could hit a baseball every time he stepped to plate. And boy did he succeed during the 2010 Ohio Valley Conference championship season, setting a program record with an .859 slugging percentage. He set the school and OVC standards for home runs with a whopping 26 that season, and left his mark all over the Tech record book.

It takes a lot to follow in the footsteps of the best base stealer your school has ever seen. It takes even more to break those record in the same amount of time and that’s just what Hill did in two short years, racking up a program-record 47 steals during the 1984 campaign. He also set the career mark with 78, three years before Derek Lane matched the effort, in four seasons.

Nobody did it better on the mound while wearing a Tech uniform than Sullivan, who in three seasons lacing it up for the Golden Eagles, managed a 2.11 ERA for the best mark for a career in program history. Fans can find his name strewn all over the Tech record book as the right-hander made his mark as a power pitcher.

Every once in a while, a player comes along and does something that raises everybody’s eyebrows and that’s just what Maberry did in 1997, setting a program record with 12 victories on the hill while leading the Golden Eagles to an Ohio Valley Conference title. He turned in a near identical performance with the bat as well, becoming the first and only player to ever win both OVC Pitcher and Player of the Year.

There’s no denying what kind of effect Kemp had on hitters in his four years as the ace of the Golden Eagle pitching staff. The southpaw still holds the program and Ohio Valley Conference records with 408 strikeouts, thanks in large part to a 1986 season that set the current school and league marks of 133 punchouts. His 408 Ks may never be touched, totaling more than 100 more than the next best mark in school history.

In the blink of an eye, Hess went from putting together one of the best relief performances in Golden Eagle history (striking out 10-of-14 batters faced to clinch a share of the 2013 Ohio Valley Conference regular season title), into making a program-record 16 starts the very next season. Following three sensational seasons on the hill, he became the program’s highest draft pick since 1973.

Putting enough faith in a freshman hurler to start from day one is not an easy decision to make for most coaches. Archer made that choice a no-brainer, turning in a fantastic four-year career that saw him rack up a program-record 323.2 innings on the hill. The winningest pitcher in Tech history with 23 victories, he tied the Ohio Valley Conference mark with 55 career starts and racked up nearly 300 strikeouts.
