A well-respected and highly-regarded academic institution set on a beautiful campus with classical architecture, complete with a successful Division I athletics program, the University of Central Arkansas – situated right in the heart of The Natural State – offers something for everyone In recent years, UCA’s academic reputation has grown as the school’s Honors College has taken off and continues to produce elite students who are commonly accepted to some of the nation’s premiere schools for postgraduate and professional programs. In 2001, UCA was proud to produce its first Rhodes Scholar in Rhett Martin. Martin, a philosophy major, was one of only 32 students in the United States to receive the prestigious honor. Another milestone was reached when Shannon Palmer, a biology major, became the university’s first Goldwater Scholar. The university’s state-of-the-art Donald W. Reynolds Performance Hall and the Brewer-Hegeman Conference Center are valuable tools in attracting quality entertainment and business meetings to central Arkansas. During the 2004 election year, the University hosted prominent political voices Ann Coulter and Michael Moore in the space of five days for view from the “right” and “left” that brought the campus not only national publicity, but praise for achieving balance with the two controversial speaker. Reynolds has also welcomed the likes of Dallas Cowboys owner and Arkansas native Jerry Jones, 2009 American Idol winner and former UCA student Kris Allen, James Brown, Ray Charles, Gladys Knight, The Temptations, Gavin DeGraw, Lifehouse, Pat Green, Ricky Skaggs, Wayne Newton, Frank Sinatra, Jr. and comedians such as Dave Chappelle, DL Hughley and Jon Heder (Napoleon Dynamite).

6

Dr. Allen C. Meadors is the ninth president of the University of Central Arkansas. A native of Van Buren, Ark., as well as an alumnus of UCA, Meadors has a varied background that is deeply rooted in health care administration and education. As an Air Force officer from 1969-1973, he served in the Medical Service Corps as a health administrator. After his service commitment, he was a health care administrator for Blue Cross and Blue Shield in Topeka, Kansas. Later, he served as the assistant director of Health for Kansas City, Mo., and a health consultant involved in designing, developing, organizing, marketing and implementing health care programs in the Midwest and Western United States. In 1977, Meadors was assistant professor and program director for Southern Illinois University. He recruited students and faculty, served as the students’ counselor, coordinated with appropriate state and federal agencies and taught health management. In 1982, Meadors became associate professor and director in the Division of Health Administration at the University of Texas at Galveston. He left that position several years later to become the first executive director of the Northwest Arkansas Radiation Therapy Institute in his home state of Arkansas. It was his responsibility to build this free-standing radiation therapy facility from the ground up. In his first year, more than $3.5 million was raised, and eight months later, the facility was debt-free. Meadors returned to higher education as professor and chair of the Department of Health Administration at the University of Oklahoma, and later served as the dean of the College of Public Health there from 1989-90. In 1990, Meadors became the first dean of the College of


Health, Social and Public Services at Eastern Washington University. He also held the faculty rank of professor. Meadors then became the CEO and dean of Penn State Altoona. Under his leadership, enrollment increased, fundraising improved and intercollegiate sports were revived. In fact, Penn State Altoona grew from the fifth-largest to the secondlargest campus during his tenure. In 1999, the UNC Board of Governors elected him Chancellor of UNC Pembroke. Under his leadership there, UNCP tripled its endowment; established an honors college; doubled the number of education majors; was granted full SACS accreditation; doubled its enrollment; significantly increased in its international partners and international enrollment; raised the entering freshmen class average SAT scores and GPA to an all-time high; added nearly 200 new full-time tenure line faculty; received six outstanding financial audits; established six new endowed chairs; raised over $60 million dollars in external funds; and had over $170 million dollars in new facilities and renovation projects.

One of his last academic endeavors was to enroll in a computer sciences program at Saddleback College in Mission Viejo, California, where he earned an associate’s degree. He has also earned certification as a Fellow in the American College of Healthcare Executives (FACHE), has written and spoken extensively on health care issues, and is a member of numerous professional and civic organizations.

UCA Spirit

Since making the move to Division I, the atmosphere at Bear and Sugar Bear sporting events has been on a steady rise with support from the UCA students, alumni, faculty & staff and the city of Conway at an all-time high. Many of the school’s attendance records have been broken in the past three years in several of the school’s sports – including all Top 10 crowds in the history of Estes Stadium, home of the UCA football team. The Bear Den, the UCA student fan organization, has the highest membership in its history as more and more students fill the stands and “Do It Like A Big Bear!” UCA is also blessed with one of the nation’s best cheerleading squads. The cheerleaders have claimed multiple national championships through the years, and placed 2nd and 3rd in the nation in 2006 and 2007. And no group is more spirited than the UCA athletic bands. The Bear Marching Band, which is larger than it has ever been with well over 200 members, and The Purple Rage – the highly spirited UCA pep band – have had tremendous impact on the crowds and the games, drawing praise from the university’s coaches for their game-changing contributions. The excitement around the campus and city – and the sales of purple body paint – continues to escalate, and with all the groups coming together on game days UCA has quickly become one of the best sporting environments around.

Academic Excellence The University of Central Arkansas’ student-athletes excel not only in athletics, but in the classroom as well. The UCA Athletic Department is proud of its student-athletes’ accomplishments and strives to give them the resources necessary to succeed in the academic world. All UCA student-athletes have at their disposal an Academic Success Center with tutors, computer labs and study lounge areas. Included on the staff is a fulltime athletic academic adviser who deals exclusively with the student-athletes to assist them with their academic progress and scheduling needs. For the 2008-09 school year, UCA had 130 studentathletes named to the Capital One/Southland Commisioner’s Academic Honor Roll – the second straight year of increase, and up 45 from two years prior. Since joining the Southland Conference three years ago, the Sugar Bears’ basketball program has placed a student-athlete on the All-Academic teams, with Allyson Sample being named to the team in 200607, Meaghen Kelleybrew in ‘07-’08 and Jamye Adair earning the distinction last year.

NBA Legend

SCOTTIE PIPPEN Take time to consider the story of Scottie Pippen. It’s one of the greatest rags-to-riches story in the history of sports. The youngest of 12 children, Pippen was only an average high school player (6-1,145) at tiny Class B Hamburg High School in the southern part of Arkansas. He only played 1 1/2 years of high school basketball and received no recruiting attention, at any level. He was allowed to walk on at the University of Central Arkansas as a favor to his high school coach, as a student manager before earning a scholarship early in his freshman year after the team lost several players. He quickly grew to 6-7 by his sophomore year and earned NAIA All-America honors as a junior and senior, averaging 24 points and 11 rebounds as a senior. After two stunning pre-draft camps, he was taken as the No. 5 lottery pick in the 1987 NBA Draft by the Seattle Supersonics, who turned around and traded his rights to the Chicago Bulls. Teaming with the immortal Michael Jordan, Pippen helped the Bulls to three consecutive NBA championships from 1991-93, and to a fourth, fifth and sixth title from 1996-98. He was a member of the original Dream Team which dominated the 1992 Summer Olympic Games, and was also a member of the 1996 Olympic squad. He was an NBA All-Star 11 times and was named one of the NBA’s 50 Greatest Players of all time in 1997.

Six-Time NBA Champion Two-Time Olympic Gold Medalist 11-Time NBA All-Star Lifetime UCA Bear

Scottie Pippen lived the dream of nearly every youngster who grows up shooting baskets in the park. From the most humble of beginnings, he became an All-American, an Olympic gold medalist and one of the NBA’s top players of all time. And it all started at the University of Central Arkansas!

Scottie Pippen Tribute Banners

In Oct. of 2009, banners celebrating a few of the many achievements in the storied career of former Central Arkansas and NBA star Scottie Pippen went up in the Farris Center.

One banner, coming in at more than 600 sq. ft., spans a wall across the back of the arena. A 10’x10’ banner hangs in each corner, each highlighting one of the many milestons reached in one of the greatest careers in NBA history – including 6 NBA titles, 2 Olympic Gold Medals, 7 NBA all-star selections (and one all-star MVP), being named NBA All-Defensive First Team eight times and being named one of the 50 greatest players in NBA History for the NBA’s 50th anniversary team. Plans are also in the works for a Scottie Pippen jersey retirement ceremony in the Farris Center in the Spring of 2010.

The Farris Center Since its opening in January of 1972, the Farris Center has been the home of the UCA men’s and women’s basketball programs and has seen many memorable moments. The Sugar Bears have found home to be oh-so-sweet through the years, winning nearly 75 percent of their games inside the Farris Center. The 5,500-seat facility was the home arena for NBA great Scottie Pippen from 1984-1987; has been the home for seven Sugar Bear All-Americans including Carone Harris, the NCAA’s all-time career steals leader; was a regional site in the 2005 NCAA Division II Tournament; and has seen some of the best talent the state and nation have to offer as it has been the host site for Arkansas high school and collegiate all-star games, and AAU tournaments attracting some of the nation’s highest-profile players and coaches. The arena received a new playing floor in 2001 and has a recently-renovated state-of-the-art athletic training facility. The arena has also undergone a facelift this fall, with the arrival of Scottie Pippen tribute banners that hang along the north wall and in each corner, highlighting some of his many professional accomplishments .The Sugar Bears’ locker room and the coaches offices have been updated as well, with several improvements made including new lockers.

Dr. Brad Teague

Director of Athletics When Dr. Brad Teague was announced as the new athletic director at the University of Central Arkansas on Jan. 24, 2007, he brought stability, a vision and a passion to an already successful UCA athletic department. Teague spent the previous four years as Director of Athletics at Delta State University in Cleveland, Miss. Teague has proven to be the perfect fit for UCA’s move to the NCAA Division I level.

Crawford Center. Teague, a former All-American pitcher for the Statesmen, was awarded the prestigious Gulf South Conference Commissioner’s Trophy as the top student-athlete in the conference in 1992. He began his professional career as the assistant director of the Delta State Alumni foundation in 1992 and served for four years. In June 1996, he moved to the University of Mississippi as assistant to the athletic director. In July of 1998, he was named the Associate Director of the Ole Miss Loyalty Foundation.

THE SEASON AHEAD After a 6-23 season in his first year as head coach, Matt Daniel and his staff set out to overhaul the program and begin an immediate turnaround in hopes of returning the Sugar Bears to the success they enjoyed during a 25-year streak without a losing season that ended two years ago. To that end, the roster underwent a major facelift in the offseason with only five players remaining on the roster from the 2008-09 team. With virtually a clean slate, Daniel and staff hit the recruiting trail hard and brought in a nine-member class to fill out the roster with student-athletes who fit the new coach’s vision. After being hired mid-season in 2008 and not taking over until the end of the ’07-’08 season, Daniel entered his first year having had a brief period to recruit his own players to add to an otherwise inherited roster. This season, all but one on the Sugar Bears’ roster will be players evaluated and recruited by Daniel’s staff (with junior forward Jamye Adair the lone holdover), making it the first team that truly has his stamp on it. The team will likely be one of the nation’s youngest with ninefreshmen and sophomores, and no seniors on the roster. And while the coach feels the talent level is closer to where it needs to be, the team’s youth and inexperience will provide a major hurdle for the ’09-’10 Sugar Bears. Only 11 players will be available this season, with junior Sidney Stewart being ineligible after transferring in from Louisiana Tech and sophomore guard Jasmine Canser suffering a seasonending injury in the preseason. Among those 12, there is only five combined years of Division I experience returning – with four of those coming last season.

16

With the four players coming back from last year, the Sugar Bears return just 36 percent of their scoring, 26 percent of their rebounds and 33 percent of the assists. Added to that for this season will be seven freshmen and one junior college transfer – junior Brea Banks of Moberly Area Community College – giving Daniel a fresh, but raw, group to work with in his second season. “My only holdup with this group is the youth,” Daniel said. “I love the girls we’ve got; I love our depth, our talent level, our basketball IQ. The only reservation I have is our youth. We’re going to be young, but there’s nothing you can do about that once you’ve got that personnel on campus. But the experience will come in time, and they’ll become better players than they already are. I’m eager to see them grow and excited to get it started. I understand where we’re at, but I know where we’re headed and that gets me fired up.”

BACKCOURT Two of UCA’s returners saw action in the backcourt last season, with Nakeia Guiden and Marci Moffitt combining to make 30 starts as true freshmen. Guiden led the Sugar Bears in scoring in six games last season and cracked double figures nine times, including a high of 22 against league champion UTSA. They will have plenty of company this season with the addition of 5-foot-8 freshman point guard Micah Rice, 5-10 guard Westin Taylor and 5-11 Britney Gowans on the wing. Taylor was, prior to her senior season, rated as the 2nd best player in Arkansas behind Baylor signee Jordan Madden. Taylor took her teams to three state championship games during her high school career, winning two. Gowans was ranked by ESPN HoopGurlz as the No. 12 overall player in Texas and was ranked


THE SEASON AHEAD the No. 35 shooting guard in the country coming out of Lincoln High in Dallas, a team ranked in the national Top 20 by USA Today. “I think we’ve got a savvier backcourt than we’ve had in the past,” Daniel said. “We’ve raised the basketball IQ of that group. I think our skill set is going to be good, and we’ve got some versatility back there. It may be that we have a lot of people who can bring the ball up the floor and whoever gets it first brings it up. That’ll allow us to push the ball and the tempo more and I’m excited about that.”

FRONTCOURT Adair returns as the Sugar Bears’ leading scorer and rebounder from last season (8.5 and 3.8) in addition to leading the team in three-pointers made (40-114, 35.1 percent) and free throw percentage (82.5). She is joined by returning center Megan Moss, a 6-foot-3 junior from Coolidge, Ariz. Moss played in 25 games last season and made eight starts in her first year with the program. Moss’ younger sister Chantel, a 6-2 freshman, has been brought in to add to the team’s depth at center. At forward, Megan Herbert will step in and immediately be counted on to make significant contributions. The 5-11 Herbert was Miss Basketball in Arkansas and led her Shiloh Christian team to a state championship. Herbert averaged 25.5 points and 10.9 rebounds per game during her senior season and accumulated more than 2,800 points and 1,300 rebounds over the course of her career. Desiree Rogers, another 5-11 forward, will also give the Bears another weapon in the frontcourt. Rogers played for three state championship teams during her high school career and was a four-time all-state selection. The Sugar Bears also added Rogers’ high school teammate, 5-11 forward/center Jasmine Curtis, but she was deemed medically unable to continue her career after being diagnosed with sickle cell trait in the preseason. Brea Banks comes in with two years remaining after spending the previous two seasons at Moberly Area CC in Missouri. At 5-11, she will provide the Sugar Bears with an experienced, more mature option in the frontcourt.

What’s Coming Back: Jr. forward Jamye Adair Jr. center Megan Moss Soph. guard Nakeia Guiden Soph. guard Marci Moffitt 36 percent of last year’s pts. 26 percent of last year’s rebs. 33 percent of last year’s assts. 5 yrs combined D-I experience 74 career starts

What’s New: Six freshmen One junior college transfer

What’s Waiting: Junior guard Sidney Stewart (Louisiana Tech transfer) Soph. guard Jasmine Canser (Out for season – knee)

“Again, much like our situation in the backcourt, we’ve gotten taller and a little bit bigger and we’ll have some interchangeable parts, but it’s newcomers and youth. We’ve got some versatility with some players that can play the three or the four, or even three-four-five, and maybe a couple who can play one-two-three or even move into the four spot. It makes it hard to have a conversation about frontcourt and backcourt, and I like that.”

SCHEDULE

After two previous seasons in which the Sugar Bears were faced with the daunting task of taking on nationally ranked teams and Big 12 powerhouses such as Oklahoma, Oklahoma State and Kansas State, along with Miami and Ole Miss, the ’09-’10 schedule is more favorable for the transitioning D-I program. After beginning the season with road games at Belmont and Lipscomb in Nashville, Tenn., the Sugar Bears return home for a seven-game home stretch extending from Nov. 18 to Dec. 19. During that span they will play Ecclesia, Jackson State, Central Methodist, Tulsa, Texas College, Wiley and Southeast Missouri State – who defeated UCA 60-41 in Cape Girardeau, Mo. last season. The Sugar Bears will then take back to the road, finishing up the calendar year on the road at Chicago State and Southern Illinois-Edwardsville. Last season UCA defeated SIU-E 79-70 in the Farris Center. The final tune-up before Southland Conference play will be at home against Houston Baptist, a team that defeated UCA 66-61 in Houston last season. Southland play will begin for UCA on Jan. 9 when the Sugar Bears travel to Texas A&M-Corpus Christi. UCA will be looking to improve on its Southland mark of 2-14 from a year ago, getting only back-to-back wins at home against Nicholls and McNeese State. It was the second straight year of decline in Southland play for the Sugar Bears, who were 5-11 in ’07-’08 after going 8-8 in their first year in the league in ’06-’07.

The Team


When the University of Central Arkansas needed a leader for its burgeoning women’s basketball program, the school’s administration sought a charismatic, progressive coach who could quickly restore the long-standing winning tradition of the Sugar Bears. That search began, and abruptly ended, with Matt Daniel. Daniel, 33, quickly developed a reputation as one of the nation’s most tireless and spirited young coaches as he made a rapid ascent through the ranks on his way to his first Division I head coaching job. Entering his second season, he has continued to add to that reputation. After his first year at the Central Arkansas helm, Daniel and his staff set out to make a quick turnaround with the program. By assembling a nine-member recruiting class including Arkansas’ Miss Basketball, a national Top-40 guard and a handful of state champions, they have begun that process in earnest. Daniel’s impact on the program can also be seen off the court, with the Sugar Bears excelling in the classroom. In 2009, under Daniel’s watch, the Sugar Bears placed four student-athletes on the academic honor roll with GPAs of 3.0 or higher and had one named to the Southland All-Academic teams. Another stamp Daniel has put on the program in his brief tenure is in the way of facilities, having designed major renovations and upgrades made not only to the women’s basketball locker room and offices, but the arena as well as he helped spearhead the effort to get commemorative Scottie Pippen banners put in the Farris Center. When Daniel took the reins as the 12th coach in program history, he brought with him an impressive resume that includes stints at Big 12, Pac 10 and Southland schools, along with one of the nation’s most successful prep programs. Since beginning his coaching career a decade ago as a graduate assistant at Arizona State, Daniel has coached a number of players who have gone on to play professionally both in the NBA, WNBA and overseas, and has developed a

25


keen eye for talent while establishing himself as one of the premiere young recruiters in the nation. At the University of Missouri, where he coached for three years prior to coming to UCA, Daniel served as the staff’s recruiting coordinator and assembled the nation’s 25th, 26th and 31st-ranked classes during his tenure. Prior to joining the staff at Missouri, Daniel spent the 2004-05 season at the University of Colorado under legendary coach Ceal Barry – returning to the campus where he began his collegiate playing career in the mid-’90s – to work for the coach with 500-plus career wins. In 2003-04, Daniel led Little Rock’s Pulaski Academy boys to a 34-1 record, a berth in the state semifinals and a national ranking as high as No. 14 while earning 6-AAA High School Coach of the Year honors. Daniel also has some history with the Southland Conference, having been an assistant men’s coach at UT Arlington from 1999-2003. That he became a successful coach following a highly decorated playing career is of little surprise to those who know Daniel, who grew up in a basketball family. During his stay at UTA, he had the opportunity to coach his younger brother, Josh. Their father, David, is well respected in Arkansas coaching circles – having coached both in high school and collegiately in the state for more than 30 years before assuming the Athletics Director position at Jonesboro High School . He most recently coached the JHS girls program after serving as a men’s assistant at Arkansas State University. Daniel was an all-state performer at Jonesboro High, and was named Arkansas’ Mr. Basketball in 1994 – the same year he was state tournament MVP while leading his team to a title in Arkansas’ highest classification. He began his collegiate career at Colorado in 1994-95, guiding the Buffaloes to the NIT and becoming the first freshman to earn a postseason start in the school’s history. The next season, he was an Academic All-Big Eight selection. After two years with the Buffaloes, Daniel transferred to Harding University in Searcy, Ark., where he graduated in 1998.

Coach Daniel gives back while enjoying his favorite pastime by participating in charity poker tournaments throughout the year benefiting a variety of causes. This year he took part in tournaments for the Children’s Miracle Network and Make A Child Smile, among others. Always the competitor, he won one tournament and recorded a handful of Top 20 finishes as well in tournaments with more than 200 participants.

Tiffany Phillips

Assistant Coach - 4th season Tiffany Phillips enters her fourth season as an assistant coach with the Sugar Bears, adding invaluable experience to all aspects of the program as the staff’s longest-tenured member. During her time at UCA, Phillips has served as recruiting coordinator and been heavily involved with game planning, in-game coaching, individual workouts, academic support and the summer camps program. “Tiffany won me over,” Sugar Bears head coach Matt Daniel said. “Her loyalty to the program was really big, and her work ethic is a major asset to her. As a head coach, one of the things I was told that was very important was to find assistants where you don’t have to follow up. And Tiff is one of those. I can give her something and never have to think about it again because I know she’s going to handle it.” In the two years before coming to UCA in Au-

gust of 2006, Phillips spent two seasons coaching at Division II perennial power Delta State, where she earned her master’s degree in 2005. During her time at Delta State, the Lady Statesmen went 45-15, including a 30-3 season in ‘05-’06 in which they won a Gulf South Conference championship and advanced to the Sweet 16. Before entering the coaching ranks, Phillips enjoyed a stellar playing career at Arkansas Tech and Harding. After playing her first two seasons at ATU, she played her final two seasons at Harding, where she quickly etched her name into the record books. Despite playing just two seasons at the school, she left as the school’s No. 7 career scorer and was fifth in career free throw percentage (79.4). She led the Lady Bisons in scoring during both her seasons. As a senior in 2003-04, she averaged 13.1 points and 5.3 rebounds and also had a team-high 33 three-pointers. She also led the team in scoring as a junior at 13.3 points per game. She had a careerhigh 32-point effort against Arkansas Baptist in 2003. At Greenland High School, Phillips helped her team to a pair of state championships and guided her team to a 32-3 record in her senior season.

Caronica Randle

Assistant Coach - 2nd season

After helping lead the Sugar Bears to 80 wins in her four seasons as a player, Caronica Randle looks to continue to add to that total from the sidelines as she begins her second season with the Central Arkansas coaching staff. Randle, a Forrest City, Ark. native who concluded her career as the school’s third leading scorer (2,089 points) and all-time leader in free throws made (597) and attempted (788), was tabbed by first-year head coach Matt Daniel to complete his staff last season and has proven to be a tremendous asset in the office, on the bench, on the floor and in gyms throughout the region on the recruiting trail.

28

“I took quite a bit of time and talked to a lot of different people,” he said. “I felt like it was important to make a quality hire with this position, and I searched all over the country. But after searching high and low and visiting with a

number of people, I just kept coming back to Caronica. The way she carries herself has been phenomenal to me. She’s as professional a young person I’ve been around in a long time. I’m not afraid to put her on the phone, on the road recruiting or anything else. The way she carries herself stood out to me from day one, and I feel like she’s the best fit for this position.” During her time in the purple and gray, Randle rang up a host of individual honors while leading her teams to 20 wins per season – including a school-record 28 in 2004-05, an NCAA Division II national semifinal appearance, two NCAA Division II tournament appearances, Gulf South Conference regular-season and tournament titles, and a second-place finish in the Southland Conference East Division in the program’s first season in Division I. Individually, Randle was twice named a Division II All-American honorable mention and was the Most Outstanding Player of the South Regional in the ‘04-’05 NCAA DII tournament. A two-time All-GSC 1st team selection, Randle was the conference’s Player of the Year in 2006 and was named to the All-Southland Conference 1st Team in 2007 after leading the league in scoring in her first year. Randle graduated from UCA in May ‘08 with a bachelor’s degree in Business Administration.

A Look Back at 2008-2009 As is typical in the first year of a coaching transition, the Sugar Bears underwent some growing pains during their first season under the direction of new head coach Matt Daniel. Inheriting a roster composed largely of underclassmen, with only 11 combined years of Division I experience on the roster, the young head coach and younger team faced an uphill climb as they hurriedly tried to learn each other and the new system during the preseason. The progress made throughout the season showed on the court, but did not translate to the record book as the Sugar Bears struggled their way to a 6-23 record with a 2-14 mark in Southland Conference play. The Sugar Bears became all too familiar with near-misses, taking several losses that were decided in the final moments or by a few possessions. It started at home against Southern Illinois, who had defeated UCA by 21 the previous year, when the Salukis came to the Farris Center and walked out with a one-point victory on a shot that barely beat the final buzzer. Less than two weeks later, the Sugar Bears dropped a five-point game on the road at Houston Baptist.

the final 4:40 and lose by four.

After getting one to go their way in an overtime win at TexasPan American, the Sugar Bears found themselves on the short end once again when they opened Southland play with a twopoint defeat at the hands of Texas A&M-Corpus Christi, missing a 3-pointer at the buzzer. Another one slipped away when Northwestern State overcame an 11-point halftime deficit to win by three in Conway. At Sam Houston State, a late lead dissolved when the Sugar Bears failed to score a single point over

The Sugar Bears had one final golden opportunity slip away against the most unlikely of opponents – league champion UTSA. A 3-pointer from Laura Beth Anderson in the final seconds tied the game and sent it to overtime, where the Sugar Bears ultimately fell short 97-89 in their highest scoring game of the season. True freshman Nakeia Guiden had a team-high 22 points in the game, and another freshman – 5-foot-6 guard Jasmine Canser –led the team with eight rebounds. It would prove to be UCA’s best chance at a win the rest of the way, as the Sugar Bears closed the year out by dropping their final 11 games. The Sugar Bears played their final three games without leading scorer Destinee Rogers, who was dismissed from the team for disciplinary reasons. The season did afford the youthful Sugar Bears to gain valuable experience. Guiden logged nearly 20 minutes a game and scored in double figures time – six times leading the team in scoring. Marci Moffitt played in all 29 games, averaging 17 minutes per and made 12 starts. Sophomore Jamye Adair played 26 minutes per game and was the team’s second leading scorer. Sophomore Megan Moss, in her first year at UCA, averaged double-digit minutes in 25 games played and led the team in blocks four times and twice in rebounds.

Southland Conference In an era of considerable change in intercollegiate athletics, the Southland Conference continues to be a model of innovation, stability and consistent achievement as it celebrates the academic and athletic accomplishments of its member institutions. What began as a small gathering of college administrators more than 45 years ago, the Southland Conference has transformed itself into a dynamic and respected consortium of 12 member universities in three states. Beginning with a historic meeting of five institutions in Dallas on March 15, 1963, that included current members Lamar University (then Lamar State College of Technology) and the University of Texas at Arlington (then Arlington State College), the Southland Conference set on an extraordinary course that has proven successful well into its fifth decade of existence. On July 1, 2006, the Southland Conference commemorated another milestone as the league membership reached 12, marking the largest configuration ever for the organization. The addition of the University of Central Arkansas and Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi expanded the Southland into the Little Rock metro area and into the eighth largest city in Texas. Central Arkansas and A&M-Corpus Christi enhanced the Southland Conference in innumerable ways, including athletic and academic successes, strong and principled leadership, and strong fan support and media coverage. In addition to its two newest members, the Southland Conference lineup also consists of Lamar University, McNeese State University, Nicholls State University, Northwestern State University, Sam Houston State University, Southeastern Louisiana University, Stephen F. Austin State University, the University of Texas at Arlington, the University of Texas at San Antonio, and Texas State University-San Marcos. All told, the revised membership of the Southland encompasses more than 180,000 current students and an alumni base of approximately 920,000. Famous alums from Southland Conference schools include former President Lyndon B. Johnson TOM BURNETT (Texas State), former CBS news anchor Dan Rather Commissioner (Sam Houston State), retired U.S. Central Command General Tommy Franks (UT Arlington), NBA executive Joe Dumars (McNeese State), ABC news anchor Robin Roberts (Southeastern Louisiana), country music star George Strait (Texas State), Major League Baseball stars Hunter Pence (UT Arlington), Kevin Millar (Lamar) and Ben Broussard (McNeese State), NBA legend Scottie Pippen (Central Arkansas) and actor Lou Diamond Phillips (UT Arlington). The cities of the Southland are diverse and progressive, ranging from international business and cultural centers such as the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex, San Antonio and the New Orleans area, to the historical cities of Nacogdoches, Texas, and Natchitoches, La., to the home of the modern

oil boom, Beaumont, Texas, to the unique Cajun French cultures found in the Louisiana cities of Thibodaux and Lake Charles. Southland Conference institutions also draw large numbers of students from the metropolitan areas of Houston, Little Rock, Baton Rouge, Austin, and Shreveport. The Southland sponsors 17 championship sports, all at the NCAA Division I level. The eight men’s sports include baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, tennis, and indoor and outdoor track and field. The women compete for nine championships in basketball, cross country, golf, soccer, softball, tennis, indoor and outdoor track and field, and volleyball. The Conference earns automatic qualification to NCAA championships in baseball, men’s and women’s basketball, men’s and women’s cross country, football, men’s and women’s golf, women’s soccer, softball, men’s and women’s tennis, and volleyball. Southland Conference football ranks among the best Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) leagues in the nation, and enjoys an annual expectation of competing for the national championship with multiple teams advancing to the NCAA playoffs each year. In 2002 and 2003, McNeese State finished the regular season ranked No. 1 in the nation, and advanced to the 2002 national championship contest, the sixth such title game appearance since the league joined FCS in 1982. All told, Southland teams have played in 89 Division I playoff games in 27 years, winning 42 of the contests. During its tenure as a Division I conference from 1975-81, the Southland Conference was instrumental in the startup of the Independence Bowl in 1976. The Southland representative served as the host team of the bowl until 1980,

compiling a 2-3 record in the contests. The Conference can lay claim to five national championships, including College Division championships through former members Arkansas State (1970, UPI) and Louisiana Tech (1972, National Football Foundation). Louisiana Tech also won the first-ever NCAA-sanctioned national title, winning the Division II playoffs in 1973. Tech followed that with the UPI’s Division II national championship in 1974. Louisiana-Monroe won the 1987 FCS national title. McNeese State, which has made 13 appearances in the national playoffs, tied for the fourth most all-time, played in the 1997 and 2002 NCAA Division I Football Championship Subdivision national championship games, while Stephen F. Austin played in the 1989 title game and has four playoff appearances. Northwestern State has played in six national playoffs, and advanced to the semifinals in 1998, while Sam Houston State has earned four trips to the postseason, including the semifinals in 2004, and Nicholls State has participated three times in the playoffs. Texas State, in its lone postseason appearance, advanced to the semifinals in 2005. On four occasions, the Southland has placed three teams in the national 16-team playoffs. Six of the eight current football-playing members have qualified for the FCS playoffs. In addition, Texas State won NCAA Division II titles in 1981 and 1982 before joining the Southland. The Southland has produced 149 football All-Americans during its history, and has sent such talent to the professional ranks including Miami’s Keith Davis (Sam Houston State), Miami’s Josh McCown (Sam Houston State), Buffalo’s Terrence McGee (Northwestern State), Kansas City’s B.J. Sams (McNeese State), Seattle’s Mike Green (Northwestern State), Cleveland’s Kenny Wright (Northwestern State), Indianapolis’ Chad Stanley (Stephen F. Austin), Green Bay’s Craig Nall (Northwestern State) Philadelphia’s Luke Lawton (McNeese State). In the 2008 NFL Draft, the league saw three players taken, the most since five were selected in the 2002 NFL Draft. The league had two players selected in the 2007 and 2006 NFL Drafts, and has seen 21 players taken in the NFL Draft since 2000.

Former NFL stars from the Southland include Fred Dean, who was inducted to the Professional Football Hall of Fame in 2008, becoming the first former Southland Conference player to earn induction in Canton, Bill Bergey, Stan Humphries, Fred Barnett, Roger Carr, Marvin Upshaw, Larry Centers, Kavika Pittman, Mike Barber, Bruce Collie, Tim McKyer, Pat Tilley, Jackie Harris, Eugene Seale, Bubby Brister, Billy Ryckman, Rafael Septien, Buford Jordan, Marcus Spears, Terrance Shaw and Ray Brown. The Southland Conference has also seen its share of great coaches during its history such as Maxie Lambright, Ernie Duplechin, Sam Goodwin, Jack Doland, Bennie Ellender, Bobby Keasler, Larry Lacewell, Bill Davidson, Dennis Franchione, Pat Collins and Ron Randleman. While successful on the fields and courts, the Southland Conference has repeatedly demonstrated its commitment to the academic and athletic success of its student-athletes. In addition to football, the Southland Conference can point to a number of accomplishments in all sports. Men’s basketball has experienced a tremendous amount of success during the Southland’s 40-plus years. The league has sent two teams to the NCAA Sweet Sixteen, as well as a squad to the NIT Final Four. Basketball stars Karl Malone, Joe Dumars, Jeff Foster, Dwight “Bo” Lamar, Andrew Toney, Devin Brown, and Mike Olliver played in the Southland Conference. In 2006, Northwestern State, playing as the No. 14 seed in the NCAA Tournament, defeated No. 3 seed Iowa, 64-63, in first-round action. In 2008, the league saw two postseason teams (UT Arlington in the NCAA Tournament and Stephen F. Austin to the NIT) for the first time since 2001. Entering the 2008-09 season, Sam Houston State holds the nation’s second-longest non-conference home court winning streak (44), behind only Duke’s 59 win total. Coaches such as Billy Tubbs, Mike Vining, Scotty Robertson, Jack Martin, Andy Russo, Bobby Paschal and Pat Foster have led teams in the Southland. In women’s basketball, the Southland also has its share of tradition with UL-Monroe advancing to the 1985 NCAA Women’s Final Four, and Stephen F. Austin sustaining itself as one of the most successful programs in the history of the sport. In 2008, the Ladyjacks became the sixth program in NCAA Division I history to record over 800 wins, joining Tennessee, Louisiana Tech, Old Dominion, Texas and James Madison. Women’s basketball all-stars have included Eun Jung Lee, Lisa Ingram, Portia Hill, Deneen Parker, Katrina Price, and Joskeen Garner, and coaches such as Gary Blair, Linda Sharp, James Smith and Linda Harper. Baseball has emerged as a huge Southland Conference strength with the league earning numerous national rankings and NCAA Tournament berths. The Southland consistently ranks among the top-10 conferences in the country, and major leaguers such as Ben Sheets, the league’s highest draft pick (10th in 1999 by the Milwaukee Brewers), Hunter Pence, David Segui, Brian Lawrence, Ben Broussard, Chuck Finley, Jerald Clark, and Terry Matthews once played in the league. Former UT Arlington shortstop, Trey Hillman, a three-time All-SLC selection from 1983-85, was named the manager for the Kansas City Royals

Carone Harris NCAA Career Steals Record Holder

54

Overlooked by most schools coming out of tiny Bradley, Ark. (pop. 563), Carone Harris made sure she was plenty well known by the time her career ended in 2005. She finished her career with an NCAA record 667 steals, an average of 5.1 per game, and was named All-American three times. She was also a three-time Gulf South Conference Player of the Year and a 15-time GSC Player of the Week. Over her four years, the Sugar Bears went 101-31 (.765) and twice made the NCAA Division II Elite Eight – advancing to the national semifinal during her senior season in 2005. She was twice named to the South Reigonal All-Tournament team and earned MOP Honors in 2002-03.

Ron Marvel Ron Marvel had an incredible run as head coach of the Sugar Bears from 1980-2004, retiring as the winningest college women’s basketball coach in Arkansas history with a 489-207 (.703) record. In his 24 years, UCA never had a losing season and averaged more than 20 wins per season. Ten times during their time in the AIC, the Sugar Bears made the postseason and then, after moving to NCAA Division II, made four NCAA Tournament appearances. In 2002-03, UCA reached the Elite Eight and set a school record with 28 wins to only 6 losses. Marvel’s players received All-American honors 10 times and All-Conference 63 times. He was inducted into the UCA Sports Hall of Fame in 2003. He came out of retirement to coach the Sugar Bears for the final half of the 2007-08 season.

Carone Harris (top) and Caronica Randle (bottom) combined to form one of the greatest duos in Sugar Bear history during the 2004-2005 season. It was during that year that the Sugar Bears were within a single basket of the D2 national championship game and tied a UCA record with 28 wins. Both earned All-American honorable mention honors – Harris as a senior and Randle as a sophomore – and put up staggering statistical totals. During that season, the pair combined for 42.5 points, 16.4 rebounds, 7.2 steals and 5.2 assists per game; and hit 432 free throws at an 82 percent clip.

A Message from Coach Daniel

Here we are – another basketball season is upon us. Though the stress level is always highest at this time of year, it is also the most fun time of the year. The 29 playing dates between November 13 and March 6 are what we have worked so hard for year-round. And everybody involved has busted their tail to make the 2009-10 season one that we hope is enjoyable for every member of the Sugar Bear family – not just our coaching staff and student-athletes, but our fans, our school, our community and our state. As I enter my second season as the head coach here at Central Arkansas, I do so with a great sense of excitement. Going into my first year I was obviously very excited to get started and begin my collegiate head coaching career, but at the same time you come into it with a sense of uncertainty. Now, having learned the lessons typical of a rookie coach and getting a year under my belt, I feel that for myself and my staff the trial run is behind us and now it’s time to get this thing going. A great deal of my enthusiasm comes from the group of student-athletes that make up our team. Recruiting went well as we were able to bring in Miss Basketball in the state of Arkansas, three first team all-Arkansas players, a national Top 35 guard, a transfer from Louisiana Tech and a handful of state champions. These are players who are used to success, and we hope they continue to settle for nothing less. Six of our eight newcomers are from Arkansas, which shows the reception we are getting in this proud state. It is a place I am happy to call home, and it is a place I hope we represent well with several of its native daughters. We love them all the same whether they are from Arizona or Texas, California or Maine or anywhere in between; but it is always nice to enrich the life and further the education of a kid from within the state’s borders – and win some games in the process. While we are a young team, I am eager to hit the hardwood and watch them grow and develop. Hopefully this maturation process will be as fun to witness from the stands. The quicker they grow up, the better we will be. The bar for our program has been raised both on the floor and in the classroom, as our summer GPA was an astounding 3.02. We hope to keep that momentum going through the ‘09-’10 academic year and pile up the A’s along with the W’s. I would like to express my gratitude to everybody who has had a hand in helping us get to where we are at, and to where we are going. To list everybody individually would require several more pages and I’m almost certain I would leave somebody out. But you all know who you are, and I am appreciative. I would, however, like to recognize one group in particular – our “High Bear Nation”. Thanks to your generous financial support, we have been able to renovate the dressing room and upgrade the lockers for our student-athletes. We were also able to establish four computer stations in our offices so that, at any one time, more than a quarter of our team has immediate access to class notes, emails and other academic necessities under our supervision. We do have plans to continue creating a place of comfort and an environment conducive to success for our student-athletes, and building a competitive edge to continue recruiting top-notch student-athletes to Central Arkansas. Your donations provide so much for our program, and for that we are grateful. Your generosity goes a long way in the betterment of not only Sugar Bear Basketball, but UCA Athletics and ultimately our University. So to our current members, our prospective members and everybody else – we hope you can come out and show our opponents it’s a new day at Central Arkansas. Thank you for investing in the future of Sugar Bear Basketball. ENJOY YOUR DASH.
