Overall, the network broadcasts more than 100 live events each year, including men’s and women’s basketball, football and baseball. In addition, network programming also includes a weekly talk show, “Trojan Talk,” which promotes Troy sports. Barry McKnight is in his eighth season as the play-by-play “Voice of the Trojans.” A veteran of the broadcast industry, McKnight also serves as the co-host of a sports talk radio show on WMSP-AM 740 in Montgomery, where he has worked for parts of the last 11 years. He has also worked in television broadcasting, serving as the primary play-by-play announcer for College Sports Southeast’s football, basketball and baseball coverage from 1997-2001. A nine-time winner of Associated Press awards for broadcast excellence, McKnight is a member of the American Sportscasters Association and National Sportscasters and Sportswriters Association.

Bryant Returns
to
Lead Trojans
The Troy University baseball program enters the 2011 season with a roster full of new players but with the same lofty expectations the program has had since head coach Bobby Pierce first arrived in Troy. The high expectations are fueled by what should be a vastly improved pitching staff, by a schedule that includes a record 35 home games and by the healthy return of All-American shortstop Adam Bryant at the top of a retooled lineup. The 2011 Trojans will not be the same kind of team as the one that last spring underachieved early, caught fire down the stretch before falling in the championship game of the Sun Belt Conference tournament. That Troy team relied on an offense that pounded out 100 home runs to bash opponents into submission. That team, which relied on 13 seniors, produced 230 extra-base hits and hit .316 as a club in finishing with a 36-25 record. The Trojans won 18 of their last 24 games in 2010 because of that offense, which averaged 9.3 runs per game during that run. But the Troy offense took a heavy hit with the graduation of those seniors, plus the early loss of junior Chase Whitley to professional baseball. Gone are 66 percent of the teams’ homers, 62.4 percent of the RBI and 60 percent of the extra-base hits. “There are so many new faces on this team, but they have a quiet confidence,” Pierce said. “I like their camaraderie and chemistry and I think they will feed off each other, possibly more than last years’ experienced team.” While the Troy offense returns just three starters – Bryant at short, T.J. Rivera at second base and catcher Todd McRae – the team should present a more balanced attack in 2011. “We knew that we were going to have pretty heavy turnover, so we did recruit the junior colleges fairly heavily,” Pierce said. “We had a productive fall and I was very pleased with the way they worked in the weight room and on the field. I am looking forward to the season. Sometimes having a team with a lot of new faces is exciting to a veteran coach.” Bryant, who is the first All-American player to return for the Trojans in the Division I era, was a finalist for the 2010 Brooks Wallace Award, which goes to the nation’s best shortstop. He will be a leading candidate for that honor again in 2011 if he can come close to replicating the amazing numbers he posted last year. Despite playing the entire season with a shoulder injury that required post-season surgery, Bryant had one of the best individual seasons in school history. He finished the year with a .356 average, a team-leading 23 homers and 65 RBI. In addition to his offensive numbers, he made just three errors in 295 total chances at short. While it is not reasonable to expect the same kind of numbers this year, Bryant is poised to have another big year for the Trojans. “He is a hard-nosed, committed player who is highly

competitive,” Pierce said. “He doesn’t care who gets the credit or who gets the hit, but he does have high expectations for himself. I don’t know that you can ask a player to have that kind of season again. I want Adam to just be Adam, to play the game the way he is capable and to let the numbers fall where they fall.” With only Bryant, Rivera (.295, 8, 51) and McRae (.354, 0, 32) returning as starters, there are many holes to fill in the lineup. After fall practice revealed numerous players ready to step in and contribute, Pierce expects a more balanced attack this spring. “What I do like is that we may be a little more consistent from top to bottom,” Pierce said. “If that turns out to be the case, that will take a little of the pressure off Adam and we can distribute the production a little better throughout the lineup.” While the day-to-day lineup will look vastly different in 2011, the Trojans pitching staff will have a new look as well. Weekend starters Tyler Ray (8-4, 5.34) and Drew Hull (4-6, 6.59) both return after sitting out fall practice. Ray, a junior,

was given the time off to rest after a heavy spring workload that was followed by a summer spent in the Cape League where he was an All-Star. Hull missed the fall after surgery to clean out some problems in an ankle. “Obviously, when we start talking about pitching, we start with Tyler Ray and Drew Hull,” Pierce said. “Tyler needed the rest in the fall and I expect him to push his game to another level. I think he saw a lot over the summer, playing with so many top prospects. He saw how hard those players work and I think that sent a message as to what he needs to be doing.” Ray will be back in the weekend rotation for a third season. He has a career record of 15-7 in 30 starts with a 4.98 ERA. “We have been calling Tyler’s name for a long time but he is still just a junior,” Pierce said. “A lot of times it is that junior season when a guy really takes off.” Like Ray, Hull sat on the sidelines during the fall, although he spent most of the time on crutches following surgery. After recovering from the procedure, Pierce said you could see a difference in the way Hull carried himself, both on and off the field. “I think that Drew is primed to have a very good year,” Pierce said. “That ankle had bothered him, off and on, for a while. Toward the end of the semester, just watching him walk around, you could tell he was better. I think he will be ready to get back to work this spring and we have high expectations for him.” Joining Ray and Hull among returning hurlers are sophomore right handers Thomas Austin and Cass Abercrombie, sophomore left-hander Shane McCain, and seniors Nick Ward and A.J. Howard. All three right-handers are expected to serve in similar roles to what they played in 2010 when
12
they worked in middle and long relief. Ward was a spot starter, but could find his way to the back end of games as part of committee of closers. McCain and Howard are both working to come back from injury. McCain opened his freshman season in the weekend rotation but made just five starts before an elbow injury shelved him for the year. Howard is still working to battle back from surgery that cost him the 2009 season. What has the Troy coaches excited, in addition to the returning hurlers, is the stable of newcomers who showed promise during the fall, despite having several pitchers who had to battle through injuries. “We went into the previous recruiting classes trying to build depth on our pitching staff,” Pierce said. “We thought we had done that, but some key injuries hurt us. We addressed that, and then the injury bug hit again with some of our signees before they even reported to Troy. We are still working through some of that but, overall, I feel like our pitching depth has improved. We’ll see how it all works out.” One thing that is a certainty for the 2011 Trojans is a schedule that will allow the team to play more regular season home games than any team in school history. The Trojans will play 21 of their first 23 games at Riddle-Pace Field and have a total of 35 home games on the schedule overall. Teams that will visit Troy early in 2011 for weekend series include High Point (31-29), Southern Miss (36-24) and Southeast Missouri State (30-25). The Trojans will also entertain former Sun Belt foe New Orleans for a four-game set before opening league play against state rival South Alabama. “Certainly, our schedule favors this years’ team and our fans with so many home games,” Pierce said. “The thing about our schedule is that you don’t see the Arkansas or Arizona State but, with teams like High Point and Southern Miss, we all know what kind of baseball they play and how well they are coached. This may be a fortunate year for this team to play a great schedule against quality opponents at home.”

2011 Season Preview
Trojans Have Big Shoes To Fill Offensively During the 2010 season, the Troy Trojans ranked as one of the top run producing teams in all of college baseball. The Trojans averaged 8.5 runs per game thanks, in large part, to an average of 1.64 home runs per game. Those numbers ranked 20th and ninth in the nation, respectively. As the start of the 2011 season nears, the Trojans must find a way to replace more than half of that production. Only senior All-American Adam Bryant (23) returns from the group of five players who blasted double-figure homers last year. Gone are Ryan Ditthardt (18), Steven Felix (16), Miles Hoyle (12) and Chase Whitley (10). That quartet accounted for more than half of the Trojans’ homers last year. The new season will see the debut of an almost entirely new starting cast for Troy who will be looking for new ways to score runs. That is especially true as the result of changes to the NCAA mandated specifications placed on bat manufacturers for the coming year. Trojans head coach Bobby Pierce, who is entering his ninth season in Troy, said the change in the lineup combined with the change in the equipment leaves many questions unanswered for the new season. “Without the opportunity to practice with the new equipment, I think everyone across the country is asking the same questions,” Pierce said. “We may rely on the long ball and the extra-base hits more than the next guy, so the adjustment might be more severe for us, but we don’t know that yet.” With the great unknown hanging out there, the Trojans must proceed on the information they do have. What they do know is there will be new starters at all three outfield positions, both corner infield spots and at designated hitter. Most of those spots are normally occupied by run-producers. The Trojans also know that they will be solid up the middle, both offensively and defensively. With Bryant back at short, senior T.J. Rivera back at second base and senior Todd McRae returning behind the plate, the Trojans have a solid base of experience to build around. Bryant is the headliner, even though he did not hit at all during the fall while recovering from off-season surgery. “We did not allow him to hit live during the fall simply from a cautionary standpoint,” Pierce said. “I was convinced he was healthy and was ready to swing live, but he is a four-year starter, a senior, an All-American and preseason All-American, why take that chance when he was going to have another couple of months to strengthen the shoulder and make sure? All indications are that he is 100 percent ready to go. He feels great.” Bryant was a stalwart for the Trojans last spring, hitting .356 with 23 homers and 65 RBI while, at the same time, playing almost flawless defense. The fact that he did all of that with a bad shoulder, and that he played in all 61 games, makes the numbers even more remarkable. The obvious question is, what can he possibly do better this spring?
Junior Blake Martz will be counted on to carry more of the offensive load for the Trojans in 2011.
“The only area that he could improve, because when you look at last year, across the board he was terrific, maybe stealing a bag or two,” Pierce said. “He is capable of doing that, but last year we chose not to because of the labrum issue. “Coming off a season like last year, with the new bat in place, there is going to be a reduction of numbers. Even if we were using the old bats, I don’t know that you can ask a player to repeat that type of season. Defensively, he is such a good player that I know he is going to play well at shortstop, but I don’t expect him to go through another season with just three errors.” Rivera will be back with Bryant in the middle infield. The duo got off to a great start defensively in 2010 but wound up sacrificing some of that teamwork later in the year as Rivera played more at third base. The Bronx native also struggled later in the season with some lower back problems that likely cut into his offensive production. “T.J. has worked very hard with our athletic trainer Sean Boland, who does an outstanding job,” Pierce said. “He has also worked hard with our strength and conditioning staff, which is now headed up by J.D. Pruitt, who is outstanding. I know he has put the work in to get past those nagging problems. It is a long season, and I don’t know that he will make it without any issues, but I can say he has put the work in to, hopefully, eliminate them.” Rivera saw his batting average slip below the .300 mark late in the season as his back problems limited his production,

2011 Season Preview This year McRae will be focused on producing more doubles and driving in more runs. “We were very impressed with the year Todd had in 2010,” Pierce said. “He is a good hitter who has worked hard to improve. I feel certain that his extra-base numbers will go up this year because of the work he has done to produce that. He is a tough out. He knows the strike zone and he competes hard. He is a winner.” In addition to what he brings to the table offensively, McRae also gives the Troy pitching staff the confidence to throw just about any pitch in any count or in any situation. His presence behind the plate last year helped the Trojans cut their wild pitches from 59 in 2009 to just 27 last year. He also allowed just one passed ball, which came during the Sun Belt Tournament at the end of the year. “His defensive skills get him in the talks of possibly getting an opportunity to play professionally because of what he does behind the plate,” Pierce said. “He cut our wild pitch numbers in half and our pitchers are very comfortable with him. He is one of the few guys I have coached at the college level who I would be comfortable with calling his own game.” McRae will be backed up by senior Jacob Dixon as well as freshman Zach Siegel. The Trojans have two other returning offensive players who are expected to take on bigger roles this spring. Junior outfielder Daniel Peterson, who has had to constantly battle pain from a leg injury in 2008, will be in the rotation in center Senior T.J. Rivera will be back in the middle of the lineup field and junior Blake Martz will be a middle of the order and will be back at second base in 2011. bat, primarily as the designated hitter.

He hit “T.J. is a fantastic player and is a guy we really like in our .333 in just 72 at bats, but will be counted on to see more program,” Pierce said. “He is a guy who is committed to doing action this year. his work on a daily basis.

While McRae did not produce a lot of extra-base hits, Since moving to Division I status in 1994, he pounded hit after hit right up the middle of the field.

2011 Season Preview tough curriculum, but now you can see that he is enjoying himself and is much more relaxed as a player.” The key to Peterson having success is to manage the number of consecutive games he plays. “The injury he suffered a couple of years back has left some residual pain,” Pierce said. “He is a tough kid and he battles through it, but at his position, center field, it is hard to play at 75 percent. He is pretty good at 75 percent, but we will have to keep a close eye on him to keep him at 100 percent as much as possible.” Martz has shown flashes of the type of offensive production that was expected of him when he came to Troy. A knee injury in 2009 cut his season short and a senior laden team last spring hampered his chance to be an everyday player. Still, he batted .294 in 126 at bats with 12 doubles and three homers. “Blake hasn’t had the big year we know he is capable of,” Pierce said. “He is a guy this team really needs to be a part of the middle of the order. It is his turn and his time. He is certainly more prepared, both mentally and physically, to take over that role and produce the RBI numbers he is capable of.” The Trojans have a pair of players who were in the program last year, but redshirted, who are expected to be every day players this year. Junior Tyler Hannah originally signed with Tennessee out of Wallace State Community College in Hanceville, but transferred to Troy and had to sit out last year, per NCAA rule. A shortstop by trade, the Gardendale, Ala., native will play third base this year with Bryant anchored at short. Sophomore Logan Pierce, the youngest son of the Trojans’ head coach, will back Hannah at third, but will also be part of a three-man platoon at first base with Martz and freshman Kyle Brown. “Tyler is a fine defensive player at third, short or second but, with Adam and T.J. returning, we need to keep that combination in place,” Pierce said. “He played all summer and did some really good things offensively, but he had some oblique issues that kept him out some of the fall. The times he was out there he did great things both offensively and defensively. I certainly feel very good about his ability to play third base and I think he will be a fine offensive player for us this year. Looking ahead, Tyler will probably return to shortstop for his senior season.” With Hannah limited somewhat during the fall by the oblique injury, Logan Pierce spent most of his time playing third base. The Trojans’ coach said that even though first base is a relatively new position for his son, he feels good about the combination of players that will work to replace departed senior Ryan Ditthardt. “It is always difficult to replace great players and Ryan Ditthardt certainly was a great player in our program,” the elder Pierce said. “He was a consistent run producer who did great things, both offensively and defensively. We don’t think we can ask one player to take right up where Ryan left off, but the guys we do have we believe will do a good job
Todd McRae led the Trojans in hitting in 2010 and will be back behind the plate for his senior season this spring. for us over there. “Logan had a good fall,” Bobby Pierce said. “He played well defensively at first base, although only seeing limited time there. With Tyler having the oblique problem, we had to play Logan at third to keep intra-squads rolling. I wanted Logan to get more reps at first but, when he was at first, he made good decisions and made all of the routine defensive plays. He had a good offensive fall. With our limited number of left-handed bats, that plays to his advantage.” The Trojans coach said that having the opportunity to coach his own son is unique, but not something completely foreign in college baseball. He said he has spoken to others who have coached their sons to get an idea of what to expect. “I’d say initially, it was more difficult than I would have thought,” the elder Pierce said. “Everyone who I talked to who has been through this said the relationship becomes more rewarding as their sons careers in college come to a close. It is more rewarding than I could have imagined because of the extra time I get to spend with him. I think both of us have settled in to the point where I am just his baseball coach when we are on the field and he is just another player on the team. That approach appears to be working well for both of us.”

2011 Season Preview
Daniel Peterson is the only outfielder returning in 2011 with playing experience for the Trojans.
Brown is a two-way player who will be a third option at first base and DH this year, but will see time on the mound in the future. Redshirt freshman Tyler Vaughn provides depth up the middle on the infield. With the exception of Peterson, the Trojans will employ and entirely new outfield this spring. A total of nine players came out of fall practice with a chance to see playing time this spring and the battle for starting jobs at two of the three positions are still up for grabs. Pensacola native Boone Shear, a junior from L.B. Wallace CC, came out of the fall in a solid position as a starter in left. The job in center will be shared by Peterson and junior Tyson Workman while the right field spot will be between juniors Josh McDorman and Drew Prichard. A pair of redshirt freshmen – Ali Knowles and Hayden Hillyer – along with true freshmen Clay Holcomb and Jeremy McGowan are also waiting in the wings should an opportunity arise. The biggest issue for the Troy coaches to figure out is how to best use Workman, who is a natural middle infielder. His work with the bat in the fall showed he is ready to be a contributor on offense, which is why he has also worked in the outfield. Compounding the situation is that Workman is also a strong candidate to replace Chase Whitley as the Trojans’ closer. “Tyson is a very disciplined hitter who could leadoff if we chose to go that direction,” Pierce said. “Tyson knows how to play the game and the tougher the game gets, the better he gets. He is very versatile. When we look at Tyson, it will be hard for him not to be in the lineup, so we are looking at how best to get him into the lineup every day. It is more a matter of where he will be in the lineup versus if he will be in the lineup.” Shear will open the season in left, if his health allows him to play. “He had a very good fall even though he has some issues

that he came in with in his shoulder and neck area,” Pierce said. “He has been seeing a physical therapist for it and it is a come and go type of thing. When it comes on, he can’t play and can barely sit. He is a hard-working player, very competitive. He will be a middle of the order player for us as long as he is healthy.” Should Shear be unable to play because of his neck problems, Knowles and McGowan are in line as his backup. Knowles, who is also a pitcher, redshirted last year after elbow surgery. He is still not ready to work on the mound, but will see playing time in the outfield. “He is our most versatile and best defensive player in the outfield,” Pierce said of Knowles. “He is a switch-hitter who has not quite developed offensively, but he may be just opportunities away because he does compete well and he puts the ball in play. He has skills that we will utilize throughout the season.” McGowan is also a two-way player who will eventually see action on the mound, but will likely only play in the outfield this year. “He is a guy who really worked hard to improve his strength,” Pierce said. “He came in as a primary pitcher, secondary position player but we really didn’t know which would develop. He did some things offensively in the fall that were better than we anticipated.” The battle for the starting job in right between McDorman and Prichard will likely continue into the spring and may turn into a left/right platoon situation. Hillyer and Holcomb will provide depth, with Holcomb a potential candidate to redshirt. “The surprise of the fall camp was Josh McDorman, who showed good power in his bat and hitting ability above and beyond what we thought coming in,” Pierce said. He has definitely put himself in position to have the opportunity to play and produce for this years’ team. “Drew Prichard is even with, or slightly behind, Josh. He is one of our few left-handed hitting options. He was a tremendous offensive player in junior college and we expect Drew to contribute in our lineup.” Pierce said that even though there are so many new faces on the club, the coaches came out of the fall with a good idea about who will play this spring. “It was a productive fall,” Pierce said. “I was very pleased with the way they worked in the weight room as well as on the field. With all of the new faces, there are sure to be changes and there will certainly be a larger number of people who will get opportunities during the early part of the season to see how the lineup develops. “Several guys performed very well during the fall, and that gives us a lot of reason to be optimistic about the upcoming season. We knew we were going to have pretty heavy turnover, so we recruited the junior colleges fairly heavily. We are very comfortable with what we will put out there defensively in the infield and we will utilize several guys in the outfield until we find the right mix of players.”

Trojans Pin 2011 Hopes Like most college baseball teams, the 2011 Troy Trojans will go as far this spring as their pitching staff takes them. With a new pitching coach in place, as well as a full stable of new arms, expectations for the season are very high – for both the pitching staff and the team. Over the last two seasons the Trojans struggled at times on the mound. Major injuries to key components of the staff were major culprits to the clubs’ pitching woes. While there is no way to avoid injuries, the Trojans have taken steps to reduce the devastating affect they can have. “We went into the previous recruiting classes trying to build depth on our pitching staff,” head coach Bobby Pierce said. “We had thought we had done that in prior seasons, but some key injuries in places hurt us. We addressed that and then the injury bug hit us with some of our signees before they ever reported to Troy. We are still kind of working through some of that but, overall, I feel like our pitching depth has improved. We’ll see how it all works out.” One of the major steps toward improving the Trojans’ pitching staff, which has posted a combined ERA of 5.90 over the four seasons since winning the Sun Belt title in 2006, was the hiring of Brad Phillips as the teams’ pitching coach. Phillips, who served as a volunteer assistant coach at Troy in 2002-03, has been a successful high school coach over the past six seasons. “Brad is a guy I have had my eye on for a long time,” Pierce said. “I watched him develop as a coach and, when the opportunity came along, I was happy to give that opportunity to him. It was a very smooth transition to Brad, which I thought it would be since he had been in our program before. He has a calming demeanor for the pitching staff and I really like the way the staff has made a quick and easy transition.” Phillips will have a mixture of veteran hurlers and newcomers to the program to work with this spring. He will also have a pitching staff that is much more balanced in terms of right-handers and left-handers. Of the 16 players expected to see time on the mound this spring, six are lefthanded. “We set out to create more depth on the mound and more left-handed depth, and we think that we accomplished both,” Pierce said. The Trojans return a pair of veteran right-handers who have been through the battles in the Sun Belt Conference. Both junior Tyler Ray and senior Drew Hull will be among the teams’ top hurlers again this year, even though both players sat out fall practice. “Obviously, when we start talking pitching we start with Tyler Ray and Drew Hull,” Pierce said. “Tyler just needed to rest from a long summer, but I think that rest, and just coming out and soaking it in every day is going to be very good for him. I expect him to push his game to another level and I think he is prepared to do that.

Pitching
Junior right-hander Tyler Ray will anchor a Trojans pitching staff this spring that promises to be deeper than ever.
“Drew is a lot like Tyler in that he has plenty of experience and has upped his work ethic. He is prepared, both mentally and physically, to take his game to a new level. Now, with the nagging ankle injury issue solved, I think Drew is primed to have a very good year.” Ray was given the fall off after having worked more than 90 innings in posting an 8-4 record for the Trojans in 16 starts last spring. He followed that up during the summer by pitching in the Cape Cod League, where he logged almost 48 innings in nine games while posting a 4-4 record, including a victory in the league’s All-Star game at Fenway Park, with a 3.78 ERA pitching against some of the top collegiate players from across the country. Pierce said the experience of pitching in the Cape League was not only good for Ray from a competitive standpoint, but was also beneficial in terms of exposing him to those other top players. “I think his summer showed him a lot,” Pierce said. “He played with a lot of top prospects, and he saw how hard they worked. I think that sent him a message about what he needs to be doing. It is not that he wasn’t a hard worker before, but he has taken his work to a new level.

Sophomore Shane McCain will be in the mix for a spot in the weekend rotation as he battles back from elbow surgery.
I also believe Drew is ready to elevate his performance to another level. When he is right, he is very good.” The Trojans have two other veteran hurlers back this spring. Senior right-hander Nick Ward served last year in much the same role as Hull has in the past. He made 20 appearances during the season, seven of which were midweek starts. Because of his versatility, he’ll probably serve in multiple roles again. Junior left-hander A.J. Howard is still trying to battle back from an injury that cost him the entire 2009 season. “Nick adjusted his arm slot to more of a three-quarter angle and his command has improved with that adjustment,” Pierce said. “He is throwing a really nice slider from that arm slot. He is a very versatile guy who is all about the team. He can do a lot of things to help us win games. He can spot start, he can work in middle relief and I wouldn’t be afraid to close a game with him now that he is commanding the ball better. He will be a valuable member of the pitching staff. “A.J. is a hard-working kid, who is continuing to work his way back. His velocity is beginning to return. He has improved his secondary stuff because he needed to. When his velocity does return and he has the power that he has relied on in his career, he has a chance to be really good.” In addition to the veteran returners, the Trojans also have three sophomores back this year who saw action as true freshmen last spring. Right-handers Thomas Austin and Cass Abercrombie became regulars out of the bullpen for the Trojans last year. Austin was second on the team, behind Whitley, with 23 appearances, all but one in relief. He posted a 4-1 record, but tired down the stretch, inflating his ERA to 7.11. Abercrombie worked in 13 games, three as a starter, and showed flashes of brilliance. He had a 2-0 record, but posted a 9.16 ERA. “Thomas Austin was truly remarkable for a stretch last year as a true freshman,” Pierce said. “He was coming off an
“We have been calling Tyler’s name for a long time, but he is still just a junior and, a lot of times, it is that junior season when some guys really take off. He has the experience and has had the opportunities to go to the Cape and to pitch on Friday night. The combination of work and experience makes us believe Tyler will have another great year.” Hull has pitched in a number of different roles for the Trojans during his career – starter, long relief, short relief – and he may be asked to do some of all three again during his senior season. He did miss the fall after having surgery for a nagging ankle injury but will be at full strength for the spring. “I believe Drew will be ready and we have high expectations for him,” Pierce said. “He is so versatile that I have talked closing with him, we have talked about moving him around and we have talked weekend with him. He is okay with whatever helps the team the most. I have to believe that, if he takes his game to the level I think he will, Senior right-hander Drew Hull may work as a member of the weekend rotawe’ll probably either go weekend or close. tion or he may end up pitching as the Trojans’ closer in 2011.

2011 Season Preview arm angle adjustment that he did not make until January. It was a fairly natural adjustment for him, producing late sink on his fastball, that resulted in a high number of ground balls. Then he lost it, probably due to us over-using him, and we will take the blame for that. We believe Tom will continue to progress with his stamina and be a valuable middle reliever again this year. “Cass Abercrombie has made a lot of progress and we have a lot of confidence in him. He also made a slight arm adjustment that looks to be paying off for him. He has a good arm and is a good athlete on the mound. He should have an opportunity to see more time on the mound and, as a sophomore, he should be prepared to take advantage of those opportunities.” Both Austin and Abercrombie will likely serve in similar roles to what they did in 2010. The other returning sophomore is left-hander Shane McCain, who opened last season as a member of the weekend starting rotation. In his fourth start of the year he started having elbow problems. After taking a month off to rest, he came back and was dominant against UAB in a tightly controlled pitch-count game. He made just one more appearance before surgery ended his season. “Shane threw late in the fall and threw very well,” Pierce said. “He showed again why we liked him so much as a true freshman, prior to his elbow getting aggravated. He has poise, a lot of know-how and a lot of competitiveness. Now that he is healthy, I believe he will continue getting better with each opportunity.” The rest of the Trojans’ hurlers this spring are new to Sophomore Cass Abercrombie had some good outings in the program.

Senior Nick Ward is one of several candidates to serve as the Trojans’ closer in 2011.
to potentially filling the closer role, Workman will also be in the lineup as an everyday starter. “Tyson has end of the game experience and mentality,” Pierce said. “He could do more than that but, as an every day position player, we tend to go toward the back of the game with those guys.” Several other newcomers to the Troy pitching staff will be expected to make significant contributions this spring. Sophomore right-handers William Teal, a Troy native, and Chris Fisher, along with freshmen Ivan Carter, who redshirted last spring, and Hunter Warren will be looking to find roles. Junior left-hander Garrett McHenry and sophomore lefty Nathan Hill will also be vying for spots. “Teal and Fisher are both coming off Tommy John surgery,” Pierce said. “They were recruited to be a part of this years’ pitching staff, but they had problems last year and wound up having surgery. Both of them are ahead of schedule on their rehab and are throwing very well in the bullpen. We expect them to be healthy and contribute at some point this year. “McHenry was another pleasant surprise. He is a left-hander with good arm strength, a nice slider, is very competitive and is a good athlete. He can fill a lot of roles. He got better and better as the fall went on and has earned the right for his opportunities. There are a lot of roles open right now and there are a lot of guys who are going to be fighting for those roles. It is going to be very interesting to see how it all shakes out.” Carter redshirted last year and has made strides and will be able to help the Trojans down the line. Warren and junior college transfer Josh Dozier, who had Tommy John surgery in the fall, will likely both redshirt this year. Several other players were recruited as two-way players – Clay Holcomb, Jeremy McGowan, Kyle Brown, Ali Knowles and Josh McDorman – will focus on playing in the field and contributing offensively this year, but returns to the mound are not out of the question down the road.
With a pair of four-game weekends early in the season, there will be plenty of chances to experiment with the rotation before Sun Belt play begins. Besides the battle for starting jobs, the other big question for the Trojans is at closer, which is a spot Troy has enjoyed a lot of success with. Starting with Nate Moore in 2004, the Trojans have had a remarkable run of success at the end of games. Mike Felix (2006), Josh Dew (2006-07), Josh Storm (2008-09), Sorce (2009) and Whitley (2010) have allowed Troy to dominate the relief pitcher spot on the All-Sun Belt team. That group is a big reason why Troy is 217-4 under Pierce when taking a lead into the ninth inning of games. “With Chase Whitley out, and our tradition of being really good at the end of the game, that is the number one area of concern,” Pierce said. Both Hull and Sorce could transition from starter to closer if the need arises, and Ward has experience at the end of games, but the leading candidate to fill that role Sophomore Thomas Austin will be back as a situational reliever for the Trocould be junior Tyson Workman.

Tough Competition, Heavy Home Slate Troy Trojans baseball fans will get plenty of opportunities to see their team play this spring at Riddle-Pace Field. The Trojans are scheduled to play 35 of their 56 regular season games at their home field, including 21 of the first 23 games of the year. The 35 home games will be the most for Troy since the 2000 team played 35 at home. Trojans coach Bobby Pierce, who is entering his ninth season in Troy, said the home heavy slate should give his squad, which is loaded with first year players, a huge advantage this spring. “Certainly, our schedule favors this years’ team and our fans with so many home games,” Pierce said. “I know it is the best home schedule since I have been in Troy and may be one that will be difficult to repeat in the future. Things certainly fell our way in a lot of ways with this schedule. If we, as a team, can take on the “defend Riddle-Pace Field” attitude, as we should, then the amount of home games should be to our benefit.” The home heavy schedule for the Trojans begins with six consecutive home weekend series. Troy will not play a road non-conference series for just the second time since moving to Division I. In fact, the team will play just six nonconference road games all year, and none of those games is much more than a three hour drive from campus. Coach Pierce is quick to point out that, even though the Trojans will play at home a lot, the teams that will be coming to Troy will not be pushovers. “The thing about our schedule is that you don’t see Arkansas or Arizona State, but teams like High Point and Southern Miss play outstanding baseball and are very well coached,” Pierce said. “In Division I baseball there are a lot of really good teams that people really don’t know about. We have several of those on this year’s schedule.” Both High Point (Feb. 18-20) and Southern Miss (Feb. 25-27) come to Troy for series the first two weekends of the season. The Trojans will play a four-game series against High Point, a team that is coming off a fourth place finish in the Big South Conference last year. The Big South had multiple teams ranked among the top 25 in the nation last year, including Coastal Carolina, which spent the majority of the year among the top five teams in the nation. All Southern Miss did in 2009 was make a trip to Omaha for the College World Series. The Golden Eagles played in the Auburn Regional last year and have advanced to NCAA Regional play in each of the last eight seasons. Other non-conference weekend opponents include Southeast Missouri State (March 4-6) from the Ohio Valley Conference and the University of New Orleans (March 1113), which will be playing as a Division I independent this year after leaving the Sun Belt Conference. Troy will once again play home-and-home mid-week non-conference games against in-state rivals Auburn, Samford, UAB and Jacksonville State. Florida A&M returns

to the schedule for Troy for the first time since 2002. The teams will play one time in both Troy and Tallahassee. The final two non-conference games will be at Alabama (March 8) and at home against Alabama A&M (April 20). Of course, the most important part of any season is the conference schedule. The Sun Belt will be as tough as ever in 2011 and, with UNO leaving the league, the schedule will have a little big different flavor. “With the loss of New Orleans in the league we adopted the plan to play our rival twice during the season, with a three-game series at the beginning and the end of the conference season,” Pierce said. “The advantages of that are now you get to have your rival at home every year, either at the beginning or end of the season. In the past, our students have not been in school when we have played South Alabama but now, at least every other year, they will get the opportunity to see that series during the school year.”

Catcher Todd McRae is one of just seven seniors for the Trojans this year.
The Jaguars will visit Troy March 18-20 to open league play. The Trojans will play at Stanky Field in Mobile to close the regular season (May 19-21). Other SBC home series for the Trojans will be against UALR (March 25-27), defending tournament champion FIU (April 8-10), Western Kentucky (April 22-24) and the Ragin’ Cajuns of UL Lafayette (May 6-8). The Trojans will go on the road in conference play to face Arkansas State (April 1-3), Middle Tennessee (April 15-17), defending league champion Florida Atlantic (April 29-May 1) and ULM (May 13-15). “We have quietly solidified ourselves as one of the top baseball conferences in America,” Pierce said of the Sun Belt. “The insiders know that, but our fans and fans at other schools in our league may not have realized it yet. I don’t think this year will be any different. There are a lot of teams,

like ours, that will have a lot of new faces. “I think that puts FAU out front because they were cochampions last year and they return a lot of people. I think you have to put them at the top but, where you go from there, I don’t know. If FIU has the pitching, they return a lot of position players, so we know they will have another good club. “I am looking forward to our league producing additional teams in post-season play. We, as a league, have earned that. Arkansas State has improved immensely. South Alabama has always been very competitive under Steve Kittrell and, even though he will be retiring, I expect their tradition to continue. Lafayette, Middle Tennessee and WKU are always good. It is going to be an interesting year.” The priority for all 10 members of the league is to be among the top eight at the end of the year in order to take part in the Sun Belt Tournament. The championship will be played at ULM May 25-29 and will feature a brand new format. Instead of playing a two-bracket double elimination tournament, the league will divide the eight teams into two pools for round-robin play. That change, according to Coach Pierce, should help our teams that advance to NCAA Regional play the following week. “The more we looked at the round-robin format, we felt that our current eight-team, double-elimination tournament, was really not giving our NCAA teams their best opportunity because of how difficult it is to get through an eight team tournament,” Pierce said. “So, the round robin format, with a four-game maximum, should eliminate some of the stress on our pitching staffs. “Last year for the championship game, both Troy and FIU had played six games, with two extra-inning games each. When you do that, and then start regional play the next weekend, those arms have not recovered. We feel like this will be a positive step, league-wide, for teams that advance to post-season play.” The race to NCAA Regional play will start on Friday, February 18, when the Trojans host High Point. Season tickets for the 2011 Troy baseball season are available through the Troy University Athletics Ticket Office. Call 877878-9467 for information. Pierce said he hopes to see the Troy community continue to embrace the Trojans like other college towns around the nation have. If the local and university community can show that stadium growth is warranted, Pierce is ready to move forward. “We do have plans for growth, but that growth will be determined by interest from the community,” Pierce said. “The possibility of adding additional seats with sky boxes and club level seating, I think would be a fabulous addition to Riddle-Pace Field from a fan standpoint as well as from the standpoint of potentially hosting a regional here in Troy. I think it is an addition we have to continue to pursue, but it can only happen if the local interest is there.”

Since his arrival at Troy University in 2003, Bobby Pierce has presided over a period of unprecedented growth in the Trojans Baseball program. The success of the program on the field is obvious. In his eight seasons the Trojans have captured two conference titles, have been to two NCAA Regionals, produced six consecutive seasons with a national award winner, had nine All-Americans and has sent 20 players on to professional baseball. In conference competition, the Trojans have produced 30 All-Conference selections, including two players who earned Pitcher of the Year honors, one who earned Player of the Year, one who was named Newcomer of the Year and, in 2009, a player named Freshman of the Year. In terms of team results, the Trojans led the nation in runs scored in 2006 and have been in the top 10 nationally in home runs four times since Pierce has been in charge of the program.

with a 1.25 earned run average. Those two accomplishments started a remarkable run for the Troy program that ran through the 2009 campaign. Moore was also the first Trojan selected in the MLB amateur draft under Pierce, going in the fourth round to the Kansas City Royals. Since Moore’s selection in 2004, 13 more Trojans have had their names called in the MLB draft. Most remarkable was the streak of six seasons, starting with Moore in 2004 and ending with Brett Henry in 2009, when the Troy program produced a national award winner. According to long-time NCAA staff members, the streak was unprecedented in college baseball history. By the 2005 season, without Moore, there were doubts as to whether the Trojans would, or could, continue to improve. Those concerns were answered by a group of seniors who led Troy to a wire-to-wire run to the A-Sun title, earning two more players All-America recognition. Adam Godwin ran his way into not only the Troy record book, but also the A-Sun and NCAA books with 84 stolen bases that season in earning league Player of the Year as well as All-America honors. Three other seniors on that squad – pitchers Landon Brazell and Brent Adcock, along with catcher Henry Gutierrez – also earned All-Conference honors that year, with Adcock earning conference Pitcher of the Year. For Pierce, the hardware was for Coach of the Year, his first such award at Troy. In addition to the successes of 2005 on the field, the squad also performed well in the classroom, capturing the Fred B.

2012 Troy University Baseball Media Guide
Head Coach Bobby Pierce Remarkably, Dew struck out 41.4 percent of all the hitters he faced during the season. Dew, Clint Robinson and Clegg Snipes were all called in the MLB Draft following the season. After four straight NCAA statistical championships, no one even considered the possibility of someone else stepping up in 2008. That was before outfielder Bryan Miller recorded seven doubles over a four-game stretch in March. That hot streak, however, paled in comparison to an 11-game run later in the season when Miller posted a .608 batting average with 10 doubles to put himself in position. He finished the year with six doubles in his last five games to total 32 for the year. While his total wasn’t enough to win outright, his average of .55 doubles per game made him Troy’s fifth straight national champion under Pierce. He also joined the list of All-Americans to have played for Pierce at Troy. In 2009, the Trojans faced a schedule chocked full of some of the best teams in the nation. The club battled through some ups and downs, but closed the year as the third seed in the Sun Belt Conference Tournament, which was played, for the first time, at Troy’s Riddle-Pace Field. The home field advantage for the tournament, however, failed to produce dividends. Following the season, two Trojans, pitchers Jason Walls and Chris Sorce, were selected in the MLB Amateur Draft and, for the sixth straight year, the Trojans produced a national award winner when senior third baseman Brett Henry was selected to the exclusive Rawlings Gold Glove Award team. The 2010 Trojans, loaded with 13 seniors, were poised to produce another memorable season. After a slow start left the team with a 19-19 mark past the halfway point of the year, the team turned up the intensity to win 13 of the final 17 games of the regular season. Seeded sixth in the Sun Belt Tournament, little was expected from the Trojans, but the team went to Murfreesboro on a mission and bounced host Middle Tennessee and Arkansas State before falling to FIU in the title game. Junior shortstop Adam Bryant, although not awarded for his efforts with a Gold Glove, posted the best fielding percentage of any regular player at his position in addition to blasting 23 homers to earn All-America honors. Chase Whitley continued Troy’s run of outstanding closers during the year and was selected in the 15th round of the MLB Draft by the New York Yankees.
Florida state junior college championship, helping him earn Panhandle Conference and Florida Junior College Coach of the Year honors. Chipola won four Panhandle Conference championships, earned five state tournament berths, with one title, and won 40 or more games four times under Pierce. In addition, more than 75 percent of his players signed scholarships at four-year institutions, more than 95 percent of which eventually earned their degrees. In seven seasons, Pierce’s squads at Chipola posted a 25995 overall record. After the 1989 season, Pierce returned to his alma mater as Alabama’s top assistant coach. In five years, he served as recruiting coordinator, coached the offense and outfielders, served as third base coach and coordinated the program’s summer camps. During his stay, Pierce coached his first Division I All-American, outfielder Joe Vitiello, who went on to enjoy a seven-year career in the Major Leagues. He was one of 16 players from Alabama to advance into professional baseball during Pierce’s time there. After five seasons as an assistant coach, Pierce was named the first head baseball coach in history at the University of Alabama-Huntsville. In a short time, Pierce established himself, and the Charger baseball program, as one of the best in the nation. Pierce coached several All-Conference, All-Region and AllAmerica players while at UAH and 10 players went on to have professional careers after playing at UAH. Pierce served on the Division II All-America Committee in each of his last two years at UAH. During his time in Huntsville, Pierce posted a 276-108 record in seven seasons. He guided the Chargers to the 2001 Gulf South Conference title and four NCAA regional tournament appearances after founding the program in 1995. His squads also won three GSC East Division crowns and advanced to the conference tournament championship game four times. He was named the GSC’s 2001 Coach of the Year after helping the Chargers finish 41-17 and earn a top 10 national ranking. Pierce is married to the former Kay Walls of Chipley, Fla., a health teacher at Charles Henderson High School. The couple has three children – Lance (25), a Troy University graduate, Lauren (24), a graduate student at Troy, and Logan (21), a
The Road To Troy
A Marianna, Fla., native, Pierce was no stranger to Troy when he arrived as head coach in 2003. He originally enrolled at Troy as a freshman in the fall of 1977 before transferring to South Florida Community College in January 1978. He played the 1979 season at Wallace Community College in Dothan and then signed with the University of Alabama in 1980. As a senior co-captain in 1981, Pierce set numerous school records as an All-SEC outfielder. Pierce was honored after his playing career by being named to the Crimson Tide’s All-Century team. Following his graduation in 1982, the then 23-year-old became the youngest head coach in Florida junior college history at Chipola Junior College. In his first season, the school finished 41-15 and won the

EDUCATION Former Trojan Mark Smartt returned to his alma mater in July of 2002, accepting an assistant coaching position under head coach Bobby Pierce. Following his third season at Troy University in 2005, he was named the Alabama Baseball Coaches Association Assistant Coach of the Year. He was the first-ever recipient of the award. Coach Smartt is the recruiting coordinator for the Trojans while also coaching third base and working with the hitters and infielders. Smartt, a second baseman for legendary Coach Chase Riddle, helped lead the Trojans to the 1986 and 1987 NCAA Division II national championships. He was the second leading hitter (.405) on the ’86 championship team, which is the sixth highest singleseason average in school history. He ended his career with a .379 batting average, the third-highest career average in school annals. He also ended his career with a stellar .954 fielding percentage. During his two-year Trojan career, Smartt was named to the All-GSC team in 1986 and 1987 and earned second-team AllRegion honors in 1987. He was also named to the College World Series All-Tournament team in 1987 after hitting .333 while not committing an error in 24 chances. His successful playing career was punctuated by his induction into the Troy University Baseball Hall of Fame in 2002. Following two years as an assistant coach under Riddle, Smartt spent 11 seasons as a coach at the University of West Alabama, serving as the head coach from 1995-2000. He arrived in Livingston as the school’s first full-time assistant coach in 1990 under then head coach Mark Hogan. His recruiting efforts helped produce a 1992 Division II College World Series appearance after capturing the Gulf South Conference and South Central Regional Championships along the way. The Tigers captured a GSC West Division Championship in 1994, his last season as an assistant. In 1995, Smartt was elevated to the head coaching position and compiled a 165-163 record in six seasons. During his tenure, his teams broke or tied 38 school records while producing two All-America, seven All-Region and 10 All-GSC selections. Under his leadership, UWA also finished in the top five in national attendance in five of his six seasons, including setting a single-game home crowd record of 2,019 in his last season. Smartt was appointed a member of the ABCA Division II AllAmerican Committee from 1998-2000, serving as the chairman the last two years. He also was a member of the Division II National Poll Committee from 1995-98. Immediately prior to returning to Troy, Smartt spent two years as park manager with the parks and recreation department in Moody, Alabama. Smartt and his wife Deborah, a Troy graduate, have a daughter, Taylor Michelle (19) who is a member of the Troy softball team, and a son, Chase Allan (15).

Troy University head baseball coach Bobby Pierce did not waste any time in selecting a new pitching coach, nor did he have to look very far. Former Charles Henderson High School head coach, and Troy University graduate, Brad Phillips became the Trojans’ new pitching coach in August 2010. Phillips is no stranger to the Troy baseball program, having served as a volunteer assistant under Pierce during the 2003-04 seasons. “I am very happy to have Brad back on board with our program,” Pierce said. “Having worked with him in the past should make this an easy transition. I am looking forward to having him back with us.” Phillips, a native of Hazel Green, Ala., in Madison County, played collegiately at Gadsden State Community College and the University of Montevallo before completing his degree at Troy in 2004. He took over the program at CHHS that same year and led the team to four consecutive AHSAA playoff appearances. During his time at Charles Henderson he posted a record of 114-59 and was named the Class 5A Region 2 Coach of the Year four times. He was named the Dothan Eagle Super 12 Coach of the Year in 2008. Phillips took over the program at Niceville, Fla., High School for the 2009 season and took his team there to consecutive state playoff appearances while posting a combined record of 43-16. He was named the 2009 Northwest Florida Daily News Coach of the Year. “I am very excited to be back in the city of Troy and at Troy University, both of which are very familiar places to me,” Phillips said. “I know how much Troy University and the game of baseball means to this area and I am very proud to be a part of both. “I look forward to working for Coach Pierce and with Coach Mark Smartt and being a part of the championship program they have built.”

On Wednesday, April 16, 2008, prior to Troy’s game against Samford, a ceremony was held to officially dedicate the Lott Baseball Complex at Riddle-Pace Field. Members of the Lott family and various University dignitaries were on hand for the ceremony and ribbon cutting. “This is another first at Troy University as we continue to move forward,” Athletics Director Steve Dennis said. “We are grateful to have such wonderful supporters in the Lott family and everyone who helped in making the project a success.” The presentation focused on the Lott family, who was in large part responsible for making the improvements possible. “We are very proud of our facility and very appreciative to those who helped us achieve this goal,” Trojan coach Bobby Pierce said. The late Jerry Lott was inducted into the Troy Baseball Hall of Fame in the fall of 2007. Mrs. Lott currently serves in many roles at Troy University, both as a member of the Troy Planned Giving Council, and as a founding member of the Troy Shield Society. Mr. and Mrs. Lott, along with their children Mike and Janet, have been instrumental in making the newly constructed Lott Baseball Complex go from a mere vision to the reality. “This is a magnificent place and it is going to serve us well,” Pierce said.

Sun Belt Conference While there are 31 NCAA conferences that sponsor multiple sports, the Sun Belt is one of only 11 to participate in the Bowl Championship Series (BCS) and Football Bowl Subdivision. The Sun Belt was formed in 1976 with six members competing in four men’s sports, and today comprises 13 institutions of higher learning while sponsoring 19 championship sports for men and women. The Sun Belt Conference enters its 34th season in 200910 with a proud history of athletic and academic success. The conference sponsors 10 women’s sports - basketball, cross country, golf, soccer, softball, swimming and diving, tennis, indoor and outdoor track and field, and volleyball; and nine men’s sports – baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, swimming and diving, tennis, and indoor and outdoor track and field. Each of the 19 sports has seen numerous team and individual accomplishments, and nearly every Sun Belt Conference school is currently graduating its student-athletes at a rate higher than their school’s student body. All Sun Belt schools are committed to excellence in the 21st century, and facility upgrades and expansions are occurring on virtually every campus. In baseball, the Sun Belt Conference has sent multiple teams to the NCAA tournament each year since 1988. The 21-year streak of having two or more teams reach NCAA play is matched by only four other conferences (ACC, Big West, SEC, Pac-10). Because of its status as a member of the Football Bowl Subdivsion coalition, the Sun Belt Conference has a permanent seat on the NCAA’s 17-member Board of Directors. As a result, the conference has a crucial voice on some of the most pressing issues in college athletics and will always have a role in the implementation of any future NCAA legislation and guidelines. The conference continues to utilize television to grow and promote the league and it’s member institutions. Adding volleyball, baseball and softball to the conference’s television package has resulted in more national and regional television exposure for the league than at any time in its history. The conference’s regional television package enables live telecasts of Sun Belt events to reach over 20 million households. Additionally, ESPN televised the conference’s men’s basketball championship game for the 28th straight season in 2008, marking its longest affiliation with any conference in the country. The Sun Belt Conference has partnered with JumpTV

2011 Season In Review Despite having a team loaded with seniors and veteran players, it took the 2010 Trojans well into the second half of the season to finally get their feet under them. Early season struggles included a three-game sweep at the hands of then 16th-ranked Arkansas in Fayetteville as well as Sun Belt series losses to both Florida Atlantic and FIU led to the team struggling to an 8-11 mark through the first month of the year. Those early woes were capped by a game at Jacksonville State that the Trojans dominated behind the pitching of Drew Hull into the eighth inning. But things came unraveled in that eighth inning, when JSU scored six times to turn what looked to be a 3-1 Troy victory into a hard-to-swallow 7-3 loss. The Trojans bounced back from that disappointment with a seven-game win streak, the longest of the year, that included a victory over Auburn in front of a Riddle-Pace Field record crowd of 2,586. Once again, the team was unable to capitalize on the momentum it had built. The Trojans’ old nemesis, the Ragin’ Cajuns of ULL, swept Troy in Lafayette. After dropping a home series to Middle Tennessee and losing at Auburn, the Trojans found themselves a game under .500 (18-19) overall with just 18 games left in the season. Worse still was the fact that Troy was only 5-10 in Sun Belt play an in danger of not making it to the league tournament for the first time. At that point, for whatever reason, the Trojans finally figured things out. Over the final 18 games of the regular season the Trojans got great starting pitching which produced a team ERA over that stretch of better a run per game better than the overall season total. The offense did its part as well as the team closed the regular season on a 14-4 run. Catcher Todd McRae hit a team-high .406 down the stretch while working behind the plate in 17 of the 18 games. All-American Adam Bryant also finished strong. Over the final 18 games of the season he hit .385 with eight homers and 25 RBI. As a team, the Trojans blasted 31 homers down the stretch and averaged better than nine runs per game. The solid stretch run included a Sun Belt sweep at UNO and league series wins over WKU, ULM, Arkansas State and South Alabama. That run produced an 11-4 record in Sun Belt Conference play down the stretch, good enough for
a final league mark of 16-14 and a berth in the Sun Belt Championship Tournament in Murfreesboro. The Trojans entered the tournament as the No. 6 seed for a second straight year, but the 2010 experience was much more fulfilling. Troy opened the event against the host Blue Raiders, who came in as the third seed in the tournament and the favorite to win their second straight Sun Belt tourney title. The Trojans dealt the Blue Raiders a decisive blow in the opening game, clobbering MTSU 15-4 in a game that included an eight-run eighth inning explosion from Troy, [producing a run-rule shorted game. Troy faced Arkansas State in the second game of the tournament. The Red Wolves had been the surprise of the first day of play with a victory over ULL. ASU carried the momentum of that victory to a 12-2 run-rule victory over Troy. Like the Trojans the night before, ASU scored eight times in the eighth inning to blow the game open. With their backs to the wall, the Trojans had to once again face MTSU on the third day of tournament play. The road

to the tournament title would have to include a second victory over MTSU, followed by two wins over Arkansas State just to get to the title game. That task seemed to be almost impossible as the Trojans faced a 5-2 deficit in the Friday game with MTSU in the eighth inning. Troy was up to that challenge, scoring three times in the bottom of the eighth to knot the score. After Chase Whitley retired the Blue Raiders in order in the top of the ninth, the teams appeared headed to extra innings when Daniel Peterson and Bryant were quickly retired. Senior Steven Felix had other ideas. After working a 3-1 count from pitcher Daniel Palo before lifting a high fly to deep left-center. Zach Hudson went back to the wall and leaped, but the ball passed just over his outstretched glove for a walk-off homer. Following the emotional win, weather intervened on the tournament. Troy was to have played ASU later that evening, but the game was pushed to Saturday, with the tournament title game moved to Sunday. After falling behind the Red Wolves 5-1 early, the Trojans scored 10 times
in the fifth and sixth innings and coasted to a 12-5 victory, forcing a third, and deciding, game with ASU. The clubs matched up in an epic struggle with a berth in the title game on the line. Troy got off to a quick start with four runs in the first inning, and the Trojans led 6-2 after six innings, but ASU was not about to go down without a fight. The Red Wolves mounted their run in the eighth inning, which was Troy’s nemesis throughout the tournament. Closer Chase Whitley came on for Troy with two runners on base, but he allowed consecutive walks to force in a run and bring ASU slugger Murray Watts to the plate. Watts had victimized the Trojans earlier in the tournament with a grand slam and, after a meeting on the mound to discuss whether to walk him again, this time with the bases loaded and a three-run lead, the decision was made to pitch to him, but carefully. Whitley, however, made a mistake on his third pitch, and Watts hammered the ball out to right for his second grand slam. The blast put ASU within three outs of a trip to the title game. ASU stayed with Andy Ferguson to close out the Trojans in the ninth and he appeared to be well on his way when he struck out Miles Hoyle to start the inning. Trojans senior J.R. Myers had different ideas, however. He hit a line shot past the scoreboard in right for a game-tying homer, sending the game into extra innings. Troy took the lead in the top of the 10th on a sacrifice fly by Chase Whitley, but the Red Wolves tied the game in the bottom of the frame when Todd Baumgartner blasted a solo homer. The Trojans left little room for doubt in the 11th, scoring four times in the inning to send Troy into Sunday’s championship game against FIU. Like Troy, the Panthers battled their way to the title game after an early loss and had to play a pair of extra-inning games to get there. Both teams were out of pitching and the result was a 24-run, 32-hit slugfest. Troy led the game 6-5 before FIU scored six times in the seventh inning. The Panthers added three more in the ninth to put the game away and earn the automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament. Troy’s final record of 36-25 was certainly not what the team had hoped for going into the season, but the taste of championship play at the end of the year left the returning players hungry for a title in 2011.

Troy Baseball History & Records
2012 Troy University Baseball Media Guide

Troy Baseball History Few schools in the South, let alone in America, possess as rich a history and tradition as that of the Troy baseball program. In the last 40 years, Trojan hardball squads have claimed more than 1,300 victories, 14 conference championships, seven NCAA Regional crowns and back-to-back Division II NCAA Championships in 1986 and 1987. Photographic archives show evidence of intercollegiate baseball in the Wiregrass as early as the turn of the century, but school records only date back to 1954. Listed hereafter is a synopsis of the “modern era” of Troy Baseball.
1931
All home games are moved to what is now known as Riddle-Pace Field. All previous home seasons were played on the quad in front of Shackelford Hall. The change in venue was due to the number of windows being broken in Shackelford.
1961
In his first season as head coach, Melvin Lucas leads Troy to a 17-7 record and its first Alabama Intercollegiate Conference title. After capturing ACC crowns in 1962 and 1964, Lucas ends his four-year stint with a 62-30 record. His .674 winning percentage is still second all-time at Troy.
1975
Larry Maier is hired as the eighth coach in school history. He is also the linebackers coach on the Troy football team. In his only season on the diamond, the 33-year-old leads the Trojans to a 14-12 record.
1978
Catcher Buster Bergstrom is named first-team All-GSC and second-team All-South Central Region as a junior. In a team-high 187 at bats, he struck out just two times. His 93.5 at bat-to-strikeout ratio is still a school record.
1979
After 25 years as a player, manager and scout with the St. Louis Cardinals, 50-year-old Chase Riddle is hired as the ninth head coach since 1954. In his first year as the head man in Troy, he led the Trojans to a then-school-record 33 wins and a second-place finish in the Gulf South Conference Eastern Division. They also reeled off a school-record 20-game winning streak. Stan McCauley leads the GSC with 14 home runs and becomes Troy’s first All-America selection. Pitcher Andy Giannini finishes tied for the conference lead with 10 wins.
Pace Field, circa 1950.
Riddle was named GSC and NCAA Central Region Coach of the Year.
1981
Senior Danny Cox throws an NCAA-record 43 consecutive scoreless innings on his way to a 13-3 record and 1.30 ERA. His 13 victories are tops in the NCAA.
1982
The Trojans tear through the GSC and capture their third consecutive conference crown, but are denied a spot in NCAA Regional play. Troy (31-10, 8-3 GSC) finished the season ranked 13th, its lowest in four years under Riddle.
1983
Troy’s string of three consecutive GSC titles is snapped and the Trojans failed to reach the CWS for the second straight season, falling in the semifinals of the NCAA Central Regional. Troy finished with a 23-11-1 record, 5-3-1 in GSC play, and a No. 7 final ranking.
1984
The 1984 squad won a then-school-record 39 games (16 losses) and finished third at the NCAA College World Series and won the third Central Region title in the last five years. The 1984 team broke or tied an amazing 76 school records.
1980
After sweeping Jacksonville State, 2-0, in the GSC Championship playoff, Troy played host to the NCAA Central Regional. The Trojans went 5-1 and advanced to their first College World Series in Riverside, Calif. Troy dropped their first game, 8-2, to Florida International but rebounded with a 6-3 win over Florida Southern in the loser’s bracket. The Trojans were eliminated by New Haven, 15-7, and ended the year with a 30-12 mark. The 1930 Troy baseball team in front of Kilby Hall.

Troy Baseball History 1985
Eleven seniors led Troy back to the NCAA CWS and broke the school record for wins (43) and home runs (87). The home run record stood for 13 years. Senior Chuck Stanhope and junior Ron Warren combine for 22 victories, 12 complete games and a 3.15 ERA. It was the first year for the CWS to be played at Paterson Field in Montgomery.
1986
Mike Perez, a transfer from the University of Florida, leads the NCAA with 13 wins. His .929 (13-1) winning percentage is the best single-season percentage in school history and the 13th-highest in Division II history. On May 23, an NCAA Division II record for attendance is established in the Division II College World Series as 6,280 fans pack Montgomery’s Paterson Field Mike Perez and head coach Chase Riddle accepting the 1986 NCAA for the doubleheader featuring Cal State Sacramento Division II National Championships trophy. 29-16 record, the Trojans fail to make the NCAA Tournament against Tampa and Troy against Mankato State. for the first time since 1981.
1987
Troy repeated as NCAA Champions with a 38-10-1 record and closed the season with a 15-game winning streak. First baseman Jude Rinaldi hit a school-record .431 and led the team in hits (62), home runs (16) and fielding percentage (.990). He was named the CWS Most Outstanding Player after he hit .588 with seven RBI in four games. James Wray makes a run at Danny Cox’s consecutive scoreless innings streak but falls short with 36 consecutive. That is still fourth all-time in NCAA Division II history.
1988
The Trojans finished with a 35-17 record but were eliminated in the semifinals of the NCAA South Central Regional and denied a chance to win a third consecutive national title.
1989
Shortstop Dirk Williams led the team in batting average (.410), hits (59), singles (46), doubles (11) and runs batted in (34) en route to claiming All-Gulf South honors. With a
1990
In what would be Coach Riddle’s last year at Troy, the Trojans finished one game shy of a run at a third national championship, dropping the regional title contest to archrival Jacksonville State. Troy went 51-10 and broke or tied more than 40 team and individual school records. Ward Thigpen earned first-team All-America accolades, while catcher Joel Smith garnered third-team honors. Scott Ates tied an NCAA Division II record when he hit four home runs against Valparaiso on March 6. He was the first player since 1965 to accomplish the feat. His 16 total bases tied the NCAA record and stood for three years -- but is now tied for sixth all-time. On June 4, by an act of the University Board of Trustees, Pace Field was officially renamed Riddle-Pace Field. In the off-season the infield of Pace Field was dug up, leveled and rebuilt with new sod and a complete state-ofthe-art irrigation system.
1991
Eckerd College head coach John Mayotte was hired as the 10th head coach since 1954. His task was simple: Maintain the level of success that Riddle had elevated the program to in the 1980s and remain competitive at the Division I level. He did just that in his first year, leading the Trojans to a 34-19 record, the Gulf South Conference East Division crown and a berth in the NCAA South Central Regional. Troy finished the year ranked 14th in the nation. On April 13, Chase Riddle’s No. 25 became the first number to be retired in Troy history.

1994
In its final year as a Division II member, Troy claimed the NCAA South Central Regional Tournament and returned to the College World Series for the first time since 1987. Knowing it would be the final appearance in Montgomery, the Trojans were the sentimental favorite to win their third championship. Senior Steve “Chainsaw” Charles took the hill and made just his third start of the season in the opener against Mansfield. He definitely made the most of his opportunity. In front of 5,100 fans, Charles threw the first no-hitter in College World Series history. The Trojans went 1-2 over their next three contests and had to settle for a third-place finish. They ended the year with a 39-17 record. Charles finished the season with a 1.40 ERA, a 5-1 record, a school-record 10 saves and was named first team
In its first year as a full Division I member, Troy won the East Coast Conference Tournament with a 5-1 record and finished the season with a 34-16 mark. The Trojans posted a four-game split with NCAA Tournament participant South Alabama and a two-game split with eventual NCAA College World Series participant Auburn. Right-hander Rob Batchler was named ECC Player of the Year as he posted an 11-3 record and a 3.73 ERA. He concluded his two-year career with a 22-7 record. Catcher Curtis Green and outfielder Daryl George were also named All-ECC.

Troy Baseball History Trojans finished the regular season with a 22-21-1 record and drew the third seed in the four-team MCC Tournament, hosted by Eastern Illinois in Charleston. Trojan ace Jason Fawcett beat EIU 13-6 in game one, as Alex Rosa paced the team with a three-run homer and two-run double. A thrilling 8-7 win over Western Illinois in game two left Troy just one win shy of the Mid-Con title. Tournament MVP Rosa hit another three-run dinger, and Peter Bezeredi collected four hits as the Trojans defeated WIU, 12-9, for the championship. The Trojans continued their hot play in the NCAA PlayIn series against Midwestern Collegiate Conference champ Wright State. Fawcett took the hill in game one as the bats provided more than enough support in a 16-7 rout. Troy earned its first NCAA Regional berth when pinch-runner Lance Lawley scored from second on a single by Rhodney Donaldson with the score tied in the bottom of the ninth to give Troy a 6-5 victory. Despite losing two straight games, to top-seeded Florida State and second-seeded Ole Miss, in the Atlantic I Regional in Tallahassee, Fla., the trip will forever be remembered as the event that officially welcomed Troy into the Division I family.
1996
The Trojans went through the Mid-Con regular season with a 16-2 record, earned the top seed in the East Division and the host role. NE Illinois upset Troy, 8-7, in the first round when it scored the winning run on an eighth-inning error.

The Trojans breezed by Western Illinois and NE Illinois to earn a spot in the finals. NEIU upended Troy, 7-3, forcing a winner-take-all final. The Trojans exacted some revenge from the previous year, defeating the Golden Eagles, 9-3, on their home field. Troy took two straight from Detroit in the NCAA Play-In series and was assigned to the NCAA South II Regional in Tuscaloosa, Ala. In their opening game against Alabama, the Trojans held a 5-4 advantage through six-and-a-half innings but could not hang on, as the top-ranked Crimson Tide won, 8-5. A day later, ninth-ranked USC eliminated Troy, 5-2, ending the Trojans’ season at 37-23. The Trojans nearly pulled off another sweep of the conference awards, missing out only on the Newcomer of the Year. Outfielder Bryan Kelley was named Player of the Year, Jason Fawcett Pitcher of the Year and Mayotte earned his fourth career Coach of the Year award.
1998
In their first year as a member of the Atlantic Sun Conference, the Trojans finished with a 37-21 mark and advanced to the conference title game.

Troy Baseball History placed him in a tie for 29th. On May 8, Troy broke 10 individual and team records in a 34-4 rout of Stetson at Riddle-Pace Field. The 14 hits belted out by the Trojans in the sixth inning are an NCAA Division I record.

Junior third baseman Casey Smith finished the year with a .404 batting average, ranking 42nd nationally. The Trojans finished with a 22-34 record, 11-16 in A-Sun play, and missed the conference tournament for the first time in three years as a member.
2001
Troy won five of its final six regular-season games to secure the sixth seed in the A-Sun Tournament. After dropping their opener to UCF, the Trojans upset No. 2 seed Stetson before falling to Jacksonville in the quarterfinals. The Trojans finished the year at 27-28 overall and 13-17 in A-Sun action. Jason Bernard was named second team All-South Region and finished among the national leaders in wins (20th with 11) and ERA (52nd at 2.71).

Senior pitchers Brent Adcock and Landon Brazell gave Troy the top pitching tandem in the conference. The combined to win 20 of the Trojans 37 victories, and Adcock earned Pitcher of the Year honors.
2006
After the disappointment of the end of the 2005 season, the Trojans went into the 2006 campaign with renewed determination. The players were determined to leave their mark on a new league, and that is just what they did. The Trojans put together a streak in the middle of the season that resulted in victories in 20 of 21 games. That streak also helped the team get off to a 12-1 start in its first season in the Sun Belt Conference. That hot start turned out to be insurmountable as the Trojans finished with a 20-4 mark in league play to capture the Sun Belt crown in the programs’ first year in the league. With the memory of the snubbing of 2005 still fresh on the minds of all involved, the Trojans left no doubt about NCAA play by sweeping through the Sun Belt Tournament to
2002
After enduring a slow start, the Troy baseball team rallied over the last month to earn another berth in the Atlantic Sun Conference Championship. The Trojans won 19 of their last 28 games, including nine straight at one point, to pull into fourth place in the A-Sun standings.
2003
Troy began the Bobby Pierce era with a 27-27 finish. The Trojans won their first five under Pierce and were in contention for a spot in the A-Sun tournament. However, they dropped 10 of their last 13 to miss the tournament by just one game. Trent Cox broke the freshman hit record with 49 and was named to the A-Sun All-Freshman team.
2004
The Trojans made great strides in Pierce’s second season. After a great start, the team slid to fifth in the final A-Sun standings, but then bullied their way to the finals of the Conference Tournament before falling to Florida Atlantic. Junior pitcher Nate Moore became the first Trojan to earn First Team All-America honors (Baseball America) after leading the nation with a 1.25 ERA. He was taken in the fourth round of the Major League Baseball June Amatuer Draft by the Kansas City Royals.
2005
Going into its final season of play in the Atlantic Sun Conference, the Trojans squad put together an amazing combination of speed on the base paths, power at the plate and dominating starting pitching to dominate the league race, winning the league title by a comfortable margin.

earn an automatic berth into the NCAA Tuscaloosa Regional. Upon arriving in Tuscaloosa, the Trojans were faced with the only team to sweep a series from them, Southern Miss. The Trojans answered that challenge by beating the Golden Eagles twice, but Troy was not able to overcome the homestanding Alabama club, which ended Troy’s season. Troy’s 47-16 overall record was the best for the program since moving to Division I in 1994. The season was full of landmark performances. Tom King earned All-America honors after leading the nation in hits and doubles, setting school and conference records in both. King also had a 31-game hit streak during the year and had hits in nine consecutive at bats twice, breaking another SBC mark.
2007
The Trojans earned a second straight NCAA Tournament berth, but fell short of a third straight conference title. The season was highlighted by victories over Alabama, Auburn, Michigan, Southern Miss and Arkansas, not to mention a pair of thrilling wins over nationally-ranked Coastal Carolina. Troy’s strong non-conference performance resulted in a top 20 RPI and earned the team an at-large berth into the Oxford Regional. There the team dropped consecutive games to Southern Miss and Sam Houston State to end the season. The Trojans ran their streak of NCAA statistical champions to four with Josh Dew’s performance on the mound. Dew earned Sun Belt Pitcher of the Year honors after posting a 7-2 record with 10 saves and leading all of college baseball with 13.36 strikeouts per nine innings.
Mother nature intervened on the Trojans attempt to earn a third consecutive NCAA Regional bid. Troy knew that a victory in the Sun Belt Tournament was the only way for that bid to come, but the weather had other ideas. After dropping an opening round game to host UL Lafayette, the Trojans were poised to eliminate topseeded New Orleans in their second game. NCAA doubles champion Bryan Miller stood at the plate with one out in the ninth inning and the winning run 90 feet away. Almost any ball put in play would result in a Troy victory. Before Miller could face a single pitch, a huge lightening bolt struck just outside the stadium, forcing a delay that turned into a 24 hour stoppage by 10 inches of rain. When play did resume the next morning, Miller and the rest of the Trojans appeared to still be sleeping. Miller struck out and UNO got a homer in extra innings to down Troy and end the Trojans’ season.
2009
While the Trojans’ streak of national statistical champions came to an end, the Troy program did produce another national award winner in 2009 when senior third baseman Brett Henry was named as a Rawlings Gold Glove Award winner as the best defensive player in the nation at his position. On the field, the team worked through a season of ups and downs. The Trojans never lost more than three consecutive games throughout the year, but also never won more than six straight. Pitching was the main culprit as Troy finished the year with the highest team ERA (6.32) in school history. The Trojans finished the Sun Belt season in sixth place, but with the league tournament coming to Riddle-Pace Field for the first time, expectations were high. The high hopes came to a crashing end after an emotional late loss to WKU on the second day of the tournament led to an early morning 16-1 loss to ULM that ended Troy’s season.

Everyone knew it was coming at the end of games in 2004. If the Trojans held a lead late in the game, Nate Moore was going to take the mound. The Kinston, Ala., native was as dominant throughout that season as any player in college baseball. In 64.2 innings or work during the year, Moore allowed only nine earned runs. Name School IP ER ERA 1. Nate Moore Troy 64.2 9 1.25 2. Jered Weaver Long Beach State 144.0 26 1.63 3. Brad Kilby San Jose State 58.0 11 1.71 4. Jason Windsor Cal State-Fullerton 162.2 31 1.71 5. Wade Townsend Rice 120.1 23 1.72
Adam Godwin - 2005
There was nothing anyone could do to stop it. When Adam Godwin got on first base, everyone in the park knew what was coming. The opposing coaches knew, the pitchers knew and the catchers knew. Everyone was aware, but there was nothing they could do about it. The Enterprise, Ala., native was so dominant on the base paths that, not only did he set new school and conference marks for stolen bases in a season, he earned Atlantic Sun Conference Player of the Year honors. To illustrate how dominant he was, he stole second and third base consecutively 27 times during the year. Those 27 trips around the bases, alone, would have left him one stolen base shy of leading the nation. Name School G SB SB/G 1. Adam Godwin Troy 58 84 1.45 2. Carl Lipsey Jackson State 46 55 1.20 3.

NCAA Statistical Champions Tom King - 2006
Tom King was a little big of an unknown entering the 2006 season. A transfer from South Carolina, no one expected the kind of season King put up. His 35 doubles not only led the nation, they fell one short of tying the all-time NCAA single-season record. The Panama City, Fla., native led the Trojans to a Sun Belt Conference title in their first year in the league by leading the nation in both doubles and hits. In addition to setting league records in both categories, he also set new league marks with a 31-game hitting streak and by getting his in nine consecutive at bats, twice. He was named Sun Belt Newcomer of the Year for his efforts. Name School G 2B 1. Tom King Troy 63 35 2. Jay Miller Washington State 59 28 3. Jacob Dempsey Winthrop 64 28 4.

Josh Horton North Carolina 271 107 .395 5. Matt Camp N.C. State 261 101 .387
Josh Dew - 2007
Like Moore three years before, Josh Dew got the ball at the end of a lot of games for the Trojans in 2007. Unlike Moore, he rarely got the opportunity to warm up in the bull pen because he spent most of his time playing first base. The Montgomery, Ala., native’s moonlighting as a closer turned into his primary vocation as he turned in one dominant performance after another. Dew earned Sun Belt Pitcher of the Year honors by striking out better than 40 percent of the hitters he faced during the year while posting a 7-2 record and earning 10 saves. Name School App. IP SO K/9 1. Josh Dew Troy 27 65.1 97 13.4 2. David Price Vanderbilt 18 133.1 194 13.1 3. Jess Todd Arkansas 23 93.1 128 12.3 4. Chance Chapman Oral Roberts 22 94.0 127 12.2 5. Mitch Harris Navy 14 88.1 119 12.1
Bryan Miller - 2008
The thought of producing a fifth straight national champion at the beginning of the 2008 season was not even a consideration. Through 11 games, the Incline Village, Nev., native had a fairly average five doubles. He more than doubled that total in a series against FIU, but the best was yet to come. Through 34 games, Miller had 16 doubles, but over a 24-game hitting streak to end the season, Miller hit a sparkling .519 with 16 more doubles, not to mention 10 home runs. He also drove in 41 runs during that stretch, with a .963 slugging percentage. Name School G 2B 2B/G 1. Bryan Miller Troy 58 32 .55 2. Matt Pace Ark.-Pine Bluff 43 23 .53 3.

Riddle-Pace Field & Lott Baseball Complex
Continued improvements to Riddle-Pace Field, along with the addition of the Lott Baseball Complex, give Troy University the top baseball facility in the Sun Belt Conference and one of the best in the nation.

Riddle-Pace Field & Lott Baseball Complex After years of planning, fund-raising, sacrifices and hard work, the Troy University baseball program ushered in a new era on April 16, 2008, with the official opening of the Lott Baseball Complex. “This is another first at Troy University as we continue to move forward,” Athletics Director Steve Dennis said. “We are grateful to have such wonderful supporters in the Lott family and everyone who helped in making this project a success.” The late Jerry Lott was inducted into the Troy Baseball Hall of Fame in the fall of 2007. Mrs. Lott currently serves in many roles at Troy University, both as a current member of the Troy Planned Giving Council, and as a founding member of the Troy Shield Society. Mr. and Mrs. Lott, along with their children Mike and Janet, were instrumental in making the Lott Baseball Complex go from a mere vision to reality. The Lott Baseball Complex at RiddlePace Field is a state of the art baseball complex that rivals any in the nation. The new complex features indoor batting cages, new locker rooms for the players and umpires as well as a player lounge and meeting area. The facility also provides new offices for the Troy coaching staff. “We are very proud of our facility and very appreciative to those who helped us achieve this goal,” Trojan coach Bobby Pierce said. “This is a magnificent place and it is going to serve us well.” In addition to the Lott Complex, numerous upgrades were made to Riddle-Pace Field. Among the highlights is a new home dugout, built into the ground floor of the Lott Complex, a new home bullpen area and a new artificial playing surface. The new playing surface is now lit by a state-of-the art lighting system that provides the Trojans with the absolute best lighting for night games. No other college facility in the country can match the lighting availble at Riddle-Pace Field. The final touch is a new outfield wall that included a “monster” in right field and a state-of-the-art scoreboard and sound system built into the wall in right-center field. The wall in left field was lowered and future plans call construction behind the wall, creating a fan-friendly seating and tailgate area. The new playing surface gives the Trojans an opportunity to spend more time on the field, even on days where inclement weather would have, in the past, forced practice or games to be cancelled. The field drains water at an incredible rate of 10 inches per hour meaning that, in the future, rainouts of Troy home games will be a very rare occurance. The completion of the Lott Complex at Riddle-Pace Field, plans are in place for the next phase of improvements and removations that will take the facility to a level on par with the best college baseball facilities in the nation. Plans call for an expansion of seating down the rightfield line that will bring capacity to more than 4,000. The expanded seating will also include a new sunken dugout on the first base line that will match the home dugout as well as locker room space for visiting teams.

Finally, the next phase calls for the construction of 12-15 luxury sky boxes to give Troy baseball fans an opportunity to enjoy all the best amenities while cheering the Trojans to victory. As we continue to make improvements to Riddle-Pace Field all Trojan fans are needed to do their part to make this, and other, projects become a reality. By contributing to the Troy Baseball Capital Campaign, fans will be helping the University, the student-athletes and coaches achieve at the highest level of success possible. To contribute to the Troy University Baseball Capital Campaign contact the Atletics Department at 334-670-3482.

Dr. Jack Hawkins, Jr., Chancellor Dr. Jack Hawkins, Jr., a native of Mobile, Alabama, was named Chancellor of Troy University Sept. 1, 1989. He earned his bachelor’s and master’s degrees from the University of Montevallo and his doctorate from the University of Alabama. Upon completion of his bachelor’s degree in 1967, Hawkins was commissioned a lieutenant in the U.S. Marine Corps and served as a platoon leader during the Vietnam War. For his combat duty, he received the Bronze Star, the Purple Heart and a citation from the Korean Marine Corps. Hawkins has overseen an era of change and growth at TROY, as worldwide enrollment has more than doubled from 14,000 in 1989 to approximately 30,000 today. He led the merger of the worldwide Troy State University System into the unified Troy University, an initiative called “One Great University.” More than $200 million has been invested in capital improvements by the Hawkins Administration, including new academic buildings on all four of TROY’s Alabama campuses. Chancellor Hawkins served as the catalyst for the University’s evolution to an international institution, as TROY has attracted record numbers of students from other nations and established more than 60 teaching sites around the world. During his tenure, academic standards for admission have been increased, new degree programs were established in all academic colleges, and intercollegiate athletics joined the highest level of NCAA competition. Hawkins’ professional background includes his service as an assistant dean at the University of Alabama at Birmingham (1971-1979) and as president of the Alabama Institute for the Deaf and Blind in Talladega (1979-1989). In 1985, he was honored by the University of Montevallo as Distinguished Alumnus of the Year, and was the recipient of the 2003 All-American Football Foundation’s “Top College President” Award. In 2005 he was inducted into the Hall of Fame of Murphy High School in Mobile, Alabama. In 2007 he was recognized as the “Alabama Citizen
138
of the Year” by the Alabama Broadcasters Association. Three buildings have been named in his honor: the “Jack and Janice Hawkins Chapel” at the Alabama Institute for the Deaf and Blind, the “Hawkins-Adams-Long Hall of Honor” and “Jack Hawkins, Jr. Hall” which serves the College of Education of Troy University. Hawkins was profiled as part of two books published in 2004: “Above and Beyond: Former Marines Conquer the Civilian World” by Rudy Socha and Carolyn Darrow and “The Entrepreneurial College President” by James L. Fisher and James V. Koch. Hawkins serves on the board of directors of the Business Council of Alabama, Better Business Bureau of Central Alabama, and Troy Bank and Trust Company. He is chairman of the Governor’s Committee on Employment of the Disabled, and the Air University Board of Visitors at Maxwell Air Force Base. He also serves as chairman of the Southern Association Colleges and Schools (SACS) Board of Directors and as President of the Sun Belt Conference Executive Committee. He has served on the Board of Directors of the American Association of State Colleges and Universities (AASCU), as Chairman of the Council of University Presidents in Alabama (1999-2001) and as President of the Southland Football League. He has also served as a trustee of Talladega College, the Helen Keller Eye Research Foundation, and the American Foundation for the Blind. He is a member of the Troy Rotary Club. Dr. Hawkins’ family includes his wife, Janice, and daughters Katie and Kelly. Katie is married to Capt. Dan Beall of the United States Air Force and the couple has one son, Noah and a daughter, Ellyotte. Dr. and Mrs. Hawkins are members of the First Baptist Church of Troy.

Director of Athletics Steve Dennis Steve Dennis is his fifth year as the Director of Athletics for Troy University and his tenure has been marked by continued growth of all of Troy’s athletics programs in the Sun Belt Conference and Division I. Since his arrival at Troy in March of 2005 Dennis’ focus has been on the most important part of any athletics program, the student-athletes. Due to that emphasis Troy University studentathletes have led all members of the Sun Belt Conference, as well as all public institutions of higher education in Alabama, in Graduation Success Rate every year since his arrival. Over his four years, Troy University student-athletes have posted grade point averages of 3.0 or better for a year more than 600 times. That high academic standard led Troy to enjoy the highest level of success possible under the NCAA’s Academic Progress Report for the 2008-09 school year, with all 16 NCAA sports above the mandated 92.5 percent. Troy University’s student-athletes have flourished on the field of play as well as in the classroom. Troy’s baseball program has had 15 players drafted or signed to professional contracts while the football program has sent 20 players into professional football, including first-round draft picks DeMarcus Ware and Leodis McKelvin. The Troy football program has been especially successful under the watchful eye of Steve Dennis. The Trojans have won four consecutive Sun Belt Conference titles and have appeared in three bowl games since his arrival as Director of Athletics. That success on the field has translated to success in the stands as Troy has led the Sun Belt Conference in football attendance in each of the last four seasons. The last five years have also been marked by construction and growth of Troy University’s athletics facilities. The soccer and track teams moved into a brand-new facility adjacent to the Trojan Oaks Golf Course. Riddle-Pace Field underwent $5 million in renovations that included the construction of the Lott Baseball Complex. Movie Gallery Veterans Stadium saw the addition of two new luxury boxes and plans are now under way for a brand-new multi-purpose arena that is expected to be open in time for the 2011-12 basketball season. Dennis has also shepherded the athletics department through NCAA certification and, at the same time, completed a five-year strategic plan for the program’s continued growth. Externally, Dennis was instrumental in the formation of the Trojan Warriors, the athletic department’s booster club, as well as “The Legion” a student support group. Both groups have grown to more than 500 members in a short time and continue to grow annually. The athletics department also entered into a marketing agreement with International Sports Properties of Winston-Salem, NC, an agreement that was just renewed in 2009. Other external accomplishments have included chartering the “T” Letterman’s Club as a chapter of the Troy University National Alumni Association and the establishment of the Al Lucas Endowment for Student-Athlete Excellence. Over the last five years the Troy Athletics Department has
hosted numerous state and regional athletics events, including the Sun Belt Conference Softball Championship in 2008 and the SBC Baseball Championship in 2009. Other events have included Special Olympics, AHSAA and AISA championships. Dennis came to the Troy family from Auburn University, where he served in a variety of capacities beginning in 1985. His final assignment was as the Associate Director of Tigers Unlimited, the Athletics Department’s Development office. In that position, he was responsible for identifying, cultivating and soliciting support from individuals, private industry and corporations for the Athletics Department. A native of Macon, Ga., Dennis graduated from the University of Georgia, Cum Laude, in 1978. While at Georgia, Dennis played football for legendary coach Vince Dooley. He was the Bulldogs’ defensive captain in 1978 and was an Academic All-Southeastern Conference selection that same season. During his playing career, he played in three bowl games for the Bulldogs. His foundation as a student-athlete guides Dennis in his quest to take Troy athletics toward great things in the future. Dennis started his professional career as a high school teacher, football coach and baseball coach in Windsor (Ga.). He started his collegiate coaching career at UT-Chattanooga in 1981. In four-plus seasons, he coached outside linebackers, the defensive line and special teams for the Moccasins. Dennis went to work as the defensive backs and special teams coach at Auburn in 1985, and he remained on the Tigers’ staff for eight seasons. He was named the SEC Working Coach of the Year in 1986 by The Birmingham Touchdown Club. During his initial stint with the Tigers, he coached alongside current Troy head coach Larry Blakeney. Current Troy assistant coach Shayne Wasden, as well as former assistant coaches Mike Pelton and James Joseph, all played for the Tigers while Dennis served on the coaching staff. Dennis returned to his alma mater in December of 1993, and worked as the defensive backs and special teams coach for the Bulldogs for three seasons. From 1997 until 2002, Dennis was out of college athletics. He worked in sales, marketing and promotions for Georgia Southern Wood, Inc., serving in that role from 1997 until 2000. He then served as Vice President of Cleveland Brothers Construction from 2000 until 2002. D e n n i s returned to Auburn to coach tight ends in 2002, before moving to fundraising within the Auburn Athletics D epar tment in 2003. During his college coaching career, he was part of seven bowl teams and one Division I-AA playoff team. Dennis and his wife, Lisa, have four children Chris, Cale, Corey and Allison.
