e.a. diddle arena
The building, named for legendary Hilltopper coach E.A. Diddle, was officially dedicated in December 1963, and underwent a $32 million renovation in 2002. The renovation was the focal point of WKU’s extensive athletic complex makeover.
WKU’s Edgar Allen Diddle stood unique among the college basketball coaches of the world. His 759-302 won-loss record over 42 years at WKU made him the first coach to ever guide his team through more than 1,000 games at one college. At the time of his retirement in 1964, his 759 wins stood as the highest total ever by a college coach. On September 7, 1922, he joined the staff at Western Kentucky State College as athletic director and coach of all sports. He gave up his duties as head football coach in the fall of 1929. In 1934, Diddle relinquished the job of athletic director, but assumed it again in the summer of 1942 and held it, in addition to his coaching duties, until his retirement. Over the years he became famous throughout the nation for his antics with a red towel that was his constant companion on the bench. Never done as a “show,” the towel tossing started as a nervous habit, and he used it to signal his players. The Red Towel soon became a revered WKU tradition.
From the Natcher Parkway (heading south): Take the first Bowling Green exit (US 231, exit 9) and turn right onto Morgantown Road (US 231) into Bowling Green. You will cross Veterans Memorial Lane and pass Warren Central High School (on the right). When you reach the junction of US 231 and US 68-80 (Holley Corporation on your right and Arby’s straight ahead), turn left onto Russellville Road and follow the directions for US 68-80 above from the railroad overpass (“Welcome to WKU” sign) on in to Diddle Arena/Smith Stadium.

From US 68-80 West (heading east): Follow US 6880 (Russellville Road) into Bowling Green. You will pass under a railroad overpass (with its “Welcome to WKU” sign) and turn left onto University Blvd. The athletics complex will then be on your right -- first Nick Denes Field (baseball), then Houchens Industries-L.T. Smith Stadium. The Arena/Stadium Parking Lot and E.A. Diddle Arena will be on your right just past the stadium.

The utility and versatility of the arena has been amply demonstrated throughout the years. The facility has hosted several Sun Belt Conference basketball tournaments, and was the site of the 2003, 2009 and 2012 SBC Volleyball Championships. Diddle Arena has staged numerous concerts, hosted WKU’s annual spring and winter commencements and has even welcomed the President of the United States during a 1988 visit by Ronald Reagan.
From I-65 South (heading north): Take the second Bowling Green exit (exit 22) onto Scottsville Road and follow it all the way down to the 31-W intersection. Take a left at the light and follow 31-W down to the roundabout and exit right onto University Blvd. WKU’s athletic facilities will be located on your right coming up the road.
history
Included in the Diddle Arena renovation were a new playing floor, all-new seating, two state-of-the-art video boards and 16 luxury suites. But those were just the changes made to the playing arena. An addition was added to the back side of the facility which houses new training and weight rooms as well as a 30,000-square foot auxiliary gym complex containing two regulation basketball courts with a firewall divider. New locker rooms and office facilities were also added for multiple sports and the athletics administration.
directions to WKU From I-65 North (heading south): Take the first Bowling Green exit (exit 28) onto US 31-W. Follow the signs for US 31-W South -- Bowling Green. Stay on the four-lane US 31-W South (Louisville Road) to the stop light at the bridge over Barren River. Continue straight through the light. When the oneway streets merge into the four-lane University Blvd., you will be on the NW corner of the WKU campus (railroad on right, WKU on left).

One of the finest on-campus facilities in the country, WKU’s E.A. Diddle Arena serves as the home of Hilltopper and Lady Topper basketball and Lady Topper volleyball. The facility celebrated its 50th year of operation during the 2012-13 school year.

2014 outlook new conference, same tradition The 2014 season will bring new challenges to the WKU volleyball team, as the team enters into a new conference in Conference USA. However, the plan remains the same: to win league titles and make a trip to the NCAA Tournament. WKU returns seven letterwinners, including four starters, from a team that went 27-6 with a conference championship. Add five highly-touted freshmen to that mix, and the Lady Toppers look to keep the pace of its winning tradition in 2014. hudson enters year 20 WKU head coach Travis Hudson enters his 20th season at the helm of Lady Topper volleyball, as he becomes the longest tenured coach on The Hill. Hudson went from a 7-26 record during his first season in 1995 to producing seven teams that went to the NCAA Tournament along with 10 Sun Belt Conference regular-season championships and five SBC Tournament titles. A WKU alum himself, Hudson holds a 467-186 career record, good for a .715 winning percentage. He has coached 59 All-Conference honorees, including 35 named to the first team, along with 11 All-America selections. schedule brings familiar foes, new faces As the move to C-USA brings in a new conference slate, only four teams on the schedule will repeat from last season with WKU defeating each of those teams in UNLV, Belmont, Purdue and Western Michigan. Though the league schedule is new, WKU will renew the series with several former Sun Belt Conference opponents, including Louisiana Tech, FIU, Florida Atlantic, UAB, Charlotte, North Texas and Middle Tennessee. The Lady Toppers are just a year removed from facing four of the teams as league foes, as WKU is a combined 96-25 versus FIU, Florida Atlantic, NT and MT. However, WKU hasn’t played LA Tech since 2000, UAB since 1996 and Charlotte since 1990. The 2014 campaign also delivers seven first-time opponents. Cal State Northridge, Incarnate Word, Missouri State, Michigan State, LIU Brooklyn, UTEP and UTSA will all meet WKU for the first time in each of the programs’ history. challenging 2014 slate With 32 total matches on the schedule, including 13 at E.A. Diddle Arena, WKU faces six teams that went to the NCAA Tournament last season with five coming in the first month of action. The Lady Toppers’ opponents garnered six wins in NCAA postseason action, including a trio of teams advancing past the first round in Cal State Northridge (Second Round), Michigan State (Sweet 16) and Purdue (Elite Eight).

Ranked at No. 29 and comprised of a Fab 50 selection, two PrepVolleyball.com All-Americans and an Academic All-American, WKU head coach Travis Hudson calls this group of talent the best class in WKU volleyball history. With size, athleticism and skill in many different areas, the five Lady Topper recruits each come to Bowling Green from a winning background with a ton of biggame experience. WKU TABBED SECOND IN C-USA Preseason poll Voted on by the league’s 13 volleyball coaches, WKU was selected to finish second in the Conference USA Preseason Poll. The Lady Toppers were placed behind defending regular-season and tournament champion UTSA, who produced a 24-8 overall record and 13-1 league mark in 2013.

back row defense gets a change The back line will have one major change to it in 2014 after the departure of three-time Sun Belt Conference Defensive Player of the Year Ashley Potts, as a new libero will step in. Sophomores Kaelin Grimes and Georgia O’Connell will be up for the spot. Both hailing from Louisville, the pair combined for 350 digs as true freshmen in 2013. Grimes and O’Connell are also strong at the service line with 15 and 23 service aces, respectively, while Grimes had just 13 service errors, the least amount of the team’s most consistent servers.
Adding depth to the position are freshmen Alyssa Cavanaugh, Sydney Engle and Jackie Scott.

travis hudson wku ‘94 | 467-186 (.715)
After taking over the helm in 1995 and finishing that campaign with a 7-26 overall record, a resurgence in WKU volleyball came at an astounding pace. Under Hudson’s tutelage, WKU has earned 10 Sun Belt Conference Regular-Season Championships, including seven-straight from 2000-2006, and five Sun Belt Conference Tournament Championships. Along with that, the Lady Toppers have appeared in seven NCAA Tournaments, as five came from earning the league’s automatic bid and two were as at-large selections. For his career, Hudson holds a 467-186 (.715) mark, as his only head coaching job has been on The Hill. Hudson has been named Sun Belt Conference Coach of the Year five times in 2000, 2002, 2005, 2012 and 2013 while being an American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA) National Coach of the Year finalist three times after earning the South Region Coach of the Year award in 2002, 2005 and 2012. He has 17 winning seasons in his career, as he has 15 seasons with 20 or more wins as well as four years with 30 or more wins. Hudson also closes out WKU’s time in the Sun Belt Conference with a 215-59 record (.785), as the athletic department joins Conference USA as a full-time member in July 2014. His student-athletes have earned 59 All-Sun Belt Conference selections, including 35 first-team honorees, as well as five selections for SBC Player of the Year, six for SBC Defensive Player of the Year, one for SBC Setter of the Year and four for SBC Freshman/Newcomer of the Year. The Lady Toppers are also recognized on a national scale, as WKU has ranked as high as No. 16 in the AVCA National Poll in 2013 and finished as No. 21 in the nation in 2012, the first
time in program history that a team finished the season ranked. Along with that, Hudson’s produced 19 AVCA AllRegion selection and 11 AVCA All-Americans during his tenure, including four-time All-American Megan Argabright. But Hudson is not a man to rest on his accomplishments. To the contrary, he continues to ambitiously set new goals for his program and his players, pushing them to reach heights never before seen at WKU. During the 2013 season, WKU was looking to end its era in the Sun Belt Conference on top, and it did that by winning Hudson’s 10th regular-season title and 11th in program history with a 27-6 overall record and 17-1 against league opponents. The Lady Toppers opened the season for the first-time ever ranked in the AVCA Top-25 poll at No. 21 before moving up to No. 16 after defeating No. 16 Purdue in West Lafayette in its opening weekend. The ranking was the highest in school history. The team stayed ranked or received votes for 15-consecutive weeks throughout 2013.

One name easily comes to mind when thinking of Western Kentucky University volleyball--Travis Hudson. Entering into his 20th season as head coach in the 2014 season, he is the architect behind turning WKU volleyball into a championshipcaliber team and bringing national attention to the Lady Topper program.

head coach - 20th season
Coaching Staff After a tough non-conference slate that consisted of five opponents receiving national attention from the poll voters, WKU carried a 10-4 record into SBC action. WKU swept its first five matches before dropping its first set against a league foe in a 3-1 win over ULM. It snapped a streak of 40-consecutive sets won over a SBC opponent and 24-straight sets won by WKU this season overall. The Lady Toppers then took its first and only loss in the conference schedule the following match in a five-set contest at Louisiana-Lafayette, breaking an impressive SBC streak set by the team, as it was the first loss against a league opponent since October 4, 2011, making it 38-straight matches won. The team responded after the loss in a dominating way by winning out the regular season and sweeping 10 of its last 11 matches. In the process, Melanie Stutsman became WKU’s all-time assist leader while Ashley Potts became the program’s all-time digs leader. WKU ended the season in its 29th SBC Tournament appearance and 16th under Hudson. At season’s end, SBC coaches honored the Lady Toppers by placing five on All-Conference teams and honoring three individuals with specialty awards. Stutsman earned the league’s inaugural Setter of the Year honor while Potts won Defensive Player of the Year for the third time. Stutsman along with Paige Wessel and Noelle Langenkamp were garnered with first-team accolades while Potts and Heather Boyan were named to the second team.

The 2012 campaign marked a historic year for the WKU volleyball program, as Hudson and the Lady Toppers defended the team’s league titles by earning their second-straight SBC regular-season and tournament championships. After receiving votes in the AVCA Top 25 Preseason Poll, WKU entered the top 25 in week five’s poll at No. 24 with a 13-3 record and wins over nationally-ranked opponents Dayton and Michigan. WKU finished out the year ranked in the national poll and finished with a No. 21 ranking, the first time in program history that a WKU squad ranked in the year’s final release. After falling to Ohio State on Sept. 8, WKU would not drop a match until its final game of the 2012 season, giving WKU and Hudson the longest-winning streak in school history at 24 games. During that time, the Lady Toppers also won 36-straight matches, including 11-consecutive sweeps. Heading into the SBC Tournament at E.A. Diddle Arena, WKU took 45 of 46 sets against SBC teams and ranked as high as No. 17 in the AVCA poll, then a program record. The Lady Toppers then won threestraight sweeps on its way to the tournament crown.

The 2007 season saw the Lady Toppers make a bit of history. Through the first 26 years of the NCAA Volleyball Tournament, the Sun Belt Conference had never received an at-large bid. That changed, however, as a top-notch schedule, a No. 36 ranking in the RPI, and a 27-9 final record all added up to an invitation to the “Big Dance” for the Lady Toppers. It marked the third NCAA Tournament appearance for WKU in six seasons, with the Lady Toppers earning the Sun Belt’s automatic bid with league tournament championships in both 2002 and 2005.

WKU made history again in its seventh appearance at the NCAA Tournament, as the Lady Toppers took a 3-0 victory against Loyola Marymount in their opening match, the firstever NCAA Tournament win in the program’s history. The team’s memorable season came to a conclusion after falling to host and No. 2 Stanford, giving WKU a 33-4 season record.
Coaching Staff The 2005 Lady Toppers rank among the best teams in school history, finishing the year 31-3 (a school-record .912 winning percentage) and going undefeated in Sun Belt Conference play (12-0). WKU also ran through the conference tournament, claiming its second championship and berth in the NCAA Tournament. The Lady Toppers had the best start in school history opening the season 18-1 -- including wins at Indiana and Georgia Tech. They went on to win 27 of their last 28 matches en route to the Sun Belt championship, as Hudson earned SBC Coach of the Year honors for the third time since 2000. WKU also gained national recognition, climbing to 34th in the USA Today/CSTV Coaches Poll. The 2005 season also produced another first in Lady Topper volleyball history, as Caron Blotch and Argabright were named to the AVCA All-America team. Hudson also earned his second AVCA South Region Coach of the Year Award. Argabright went on to become the first multi-time AllAmerican in Lady Topper history, as Hudson led her and the 2006 squad to a seventh-straight division title with a 14-3 league mark and a 26-10 overall record. She also earned AllAmerica honors following the 2007 season. Hudson’s 2004 squad opened the campaign 16-1 with the only loss coming in a four-game setback to nationallyranked Stanford. WKU went on to capture its fifth-straight Sun Belt Conference East Division Championship with an 11-3 league mark, and advanced to the Sun Belt Tournament championship match for the fourth-consecutive season. The Lady Toppers also posted their seventh-consecutive winning campaign, finishing 26-7, and became the first Lady Topper team to earn votes in the coaches poll, climbing as high as 32nd with nine votes. The 2003 team continued the championship trend, capturing another division championship with a 12-2 mark, and again advancing to the Sun Belt Tournament championship match in E.A. Diddle Arena. The program also reached a milestone as it finished in the top 50 in the final RPI for the first time in school history. In 2002, Hudson became WKU’s all-time winningest coach by knocking off New Mexico State in the Sun Belt Conference Tournament title match, capping off a then school-record 19-straight wins to give the program its first-ever SBC championship and NCAA Tournament berth. Despite the graduation of three of the best players to suit up in Lady Topper history, the 2003 squad set school records for wins in a season with 33 en route to their third-straight SBC East Division title, all after being picked to finish third in their division by the league’s coaches in the preseason poll. Hudson’s efforts hardly went unnoticed as he was named the AVCA South Region Coach of the Year in addition to earning the SBC’s top honor for the second time in three years.

WKU’s success on and off the court has been a labor of love for Hudson, dating back to his days as a student at WKU. Prior to assuming the head coaching duties for the Lady Toppers in 1995, he served as an assistant coach for two years with Mark Hardaway, who left The Hill to take the head coaching position at Evansville, and one campaign under Jeff Hulsmeyer, former head coach at Purdue. Hudson also served as WKU’s interim head coach on two occasions, once after Hulsmeyer left for Arkansas State in 1991 and again in the spring of 1995 following the departure of Hardaway. Later that year, Hudson was named the head coach at WKU, making him (at the time) the youngest head coach in the nation at age 24. A featured clinician, Hudson has developed a reputation as one of the best coaches in the game. He has directed and staffed various volleyball camps both at the collegiate and high school levels throughout the region, including the WKU Volleyball Camp that he founded in the summer of 2000. He has also spent time as a member of the polling committee for AVCA Top 25 rankings. Hudson is the cousin of former Hilltopper basketball great Bob Daniels, who lettered for WKU from 1954-57. A graduate of nearby Edmonson County High School in Brownsville, Ky., Hudson captained both the varsity football and basketball teams, earning All-State honors in football. A 1994 graduate of WKU, Hudson holds a bachelor’s degree in business management with a marketing emphasis. In 1996, he married the former Cindy Wiseman, a graduate of the University of Louisville’s School of Allied Health with a degree in physical therapy. The couple has two sons, Tyler and Andrew.

Two organizations the team shows great interest in is Hope for Harlie and the Friends of Jaclyn Foundation (FOJ), a charitable, non-profit organization that strives to enhance and strengthen the support system built around children with pediatric brain tumors. FOJ would forever change the lives of people involved with WKU volleyball, as the group connected the team with Harlie Bryant in 2012. Originally from Beaver Dam, Ky., Bryant was diagnosed with a brain tumor behind her eyes at a young age. Once FOJ connected Bryant with the volleyball team, Bryant was adopted as an official member of the squad, donning the No. 6 jersey ever since.

harlie bryant Friends of Jaclyn Foundation The Friends of Jaclyn Foundation (FOJ) story is a magical one about a nine-year-old girl, a start-up Division I women’s lacrosse team and a big dream.
Harlie’s positive spirit is now being spread throughout the WKU Volleyball program after the Lady Toppers and Harlie were joined by the Friends of Jaclyn Foundation (FOJ), a charitable, non-profit organization that strives to enhance and strengthen the support system built around children with pediatric brain tumors. Through the program, adopted children become part of the team and build unique friendships. Children also gain an incredible group of caring role models to look up to when they need the extra support. Harlie is now a Lady Topper. At every home game, she is with the team in the huddle and at introductions while she cheers with her family from the sidelines during the game. The team’s secret weapon, she is a constant reminder to the WKU studentathletes and coaching staff to keep fighting no matter what stands in the way. For more information about Harlie and her journey, visit HopeForHarlie.org and follow on Twitter via @HopeforHarlie.
In 2004, nine-year-old Jaclyn Murphy was diagnosed with a medullo-blastoma, a malignant brain tumor. While undergoing treatment, she was inspired by a large framed photo on the hospital wall of a joyful, young woman lacrosse player celebrating her team’s NCAA championship. Jaclyn would see it and say, “I am going to play lacrosse again when I get well.” In 2005, two unrelated friends of the Murphy family told Northwestern University’s Lacrosse coach about Jaclyn’s story and asked them if they could help. The team promptly adopted Jaclyn as an honorary member. Jaclyn’s strength, courage, relentless spirit and joy for life inspired everyone. The team began to play for Jaclyn and achieved a magical “perfect season,” winning Northwestern’s first NCAA championship in 64 years. Just three years after the program started, Jaclyn even predicted the final score, 13-10, in the championship final. When Jaclyn was in the middle of the team’s celebration, her parents realized that Jaclyn’s relationship with the players - her adopted sisters - had a positive effect on her happiness and health. The Northwestern players knew that their relationship with Jaclyn had opened their eyes and hearts to a deeper appreciation for life. Soon afterward, Jaclyn shared a big dream with her father. She wanted other children with pediatric brain tumors to have similar experiences of being honorary team members. The Murphys understood that it is ultimately the love and support of others that gives people the inspiration and courage to get through this challenging journey. In 2005, Denis and Lynda Murphy started The Friends of Jaclyn Foundation (FOJ) to improve the quality of life for children with pediatric brain tumors and their families by pairing them with college and high school athletic teams. The FOJ program has grown incredibly to over 300 children who have been adopted by high school and college teams across the country. The magical FOJ is only just beginning!

Hope for Harlie Harlie Bryant has not lived a typical eight-years-old’s life. Though she is active and lively, Harlie has been through a lot after being diagnosed with a brain tumor behind her eyes in the spring of 2011. Since then, Harlie has had CT scans, MRIs, surgeries, chemotherapy and more. With everything going on in her life, though, Harlie has kept a positive spirit.

In laying out the town, the Moore’s designed two acres for the construction of public buildings. Those same two acres today make up Fountain Square Park in the heart of downtown. This is symbolic of the city of Bowling Green whose central location allowed it quickly to become a major agricultural community and river port, and later, an important commercial and educational center. Today Bowling Green is a regional entertainment hub for more than 250,000 people in 11 surrounding counties.
• Chosen as a Top 10 Great Public Space (Downtown Fountain Square) in 2010 by the American Planning Association
university
At the first county commissioners meeting in early 1798, the pioneers decided that the new town would be “called and known by the name of Bolin Green.” This name was after the Bowling Green Square in New York City, where patriots had pulled down a statue of King George III and used the lead to make bullets during the American Revolution.
• Selected as an All-America City Finalist in 2010 by the National Civic League
history
Warren County consists of 546 square miles and was named for General Joseph Warren, a hero of the famous American Revolution Battle of Bunker Hill. The area was first settled in 1785 when Andrew McFadin built McFadin’s Station on the Barren River. Shortly afterward, another explorer, Robert Moore, paused for a few days at the station before deciding to build in the area. Brothers George and Robert Moore may not have realized how forward looking they were when they selected a site on the Barren River in south central Kentucky for a new settlement in 1796.
• Named a Dozen Distinctive Destination in 2006 by the National Trust for Historic Preservation

Noteworthy general
Here’s the Gist
the president
Dr. Gary Ransdell University president
17th year at WKU | WKU ‘73 Dr. Gary A. Ransdell was named the ninth president of Western Kentucky University on September 12, 1997. Dr. Ransdell, 62, received his Bachelor of Arts degree from WKU in 1973 in Mass Communications, a Master of Public Service degree in Public Administration in 1974, and a Doctor of Education degree from Indiana University in 1978. Dr. Ransdell re-joined WKU as President after serving four years as Vice President for Administration and Advancement and seven years as Vice President for Institutional Advancement at Clemson University in Clemson, S.C. His previous professional experiences at WKU also include service as a field representative in the Office of University School Relations from 1974 to 1976 and as Associate Director of Alumni Affairs from 1978 to 1981. Dr. Ransdell and the WKU Board of Regents are leading the campus through a dramatic transformation from a university of regional importance to a leading American university with international reach. WKU has grown its enrollment to 21,000 and improved its retention of students to 75 percent. A key element in the transformation of WKU is growth in private support. WKU completed its first capital campaign on June 30, 2003, with $102 million in gifts and pledges. A second campaign was completed on June 30, 2012, with $202 million in new gifts and pledges. Another priority is a complete rebuilding of the WKU campus. Some $700 million in campus construction has been completed since 1998, with $200 million on the drawing board. Other measures of progress include a dramatic push in sponsored research, the growth of critical degree programs in electrical, mechanical, and civil engineering; three new doctoral degree programs in education, nursing, and physical therapy; a new emphasis on the commercialization of intellectual property and the transfer of WKU technology to

the Kentucky workplace; growth of the three WKU regional campuses in Glasgow, Owensboro, and Elizabethtown/ Ft. Knox; the creation of the Gatton Academy of Math and Science, which has been ranked by Newsweek as the No. 1 high school in America two years in a row; Kentucky’s only independent Honors College with enrollment of 1,200 high achieving students; expanded study abroad programs; and the state’s first Confucius Institute and only Chinese flagship program. True to its plan, WKU has the largest number of distance-learning courses and the largest distance-learning enrollment among Kentucky’s eight universities. During Dr. Ransdell’s tenure, WKU’s athletic programs have won over 100 conference championships, and have led the Sun Belt Conference in academic performance. He served as President of the Sun Belt Conference in 2000, and completed in 2013 a four-year term on the BCS Presidents’ Oversight Committee. Dr. Ransdell successfully negotiated a move to Conference USA, which occured in July 2014. Dr. Ransdell has served on the Board of Directors of the Bowling Green Area Chamber of Commerce, the Board for the Intermodel Transportation Authority of South Central Kentucky, and has chaired the Warren County United Way Campaign. Dr. Ransdell currently serves on the Board of Trustees for the Institute for Shipboard Education (ISE) which operates the global Semester at Sea (SAS) program.

todd stewart seventh year at WKU | Miami (Ohio) ‘88
Each of WKU’s 18 sports has a multi-year Academic Progress Rate (APR) score of 946 or higher, exceeding by 16 points the NCAA’s mandate of 930 to be eligible for postseason play. Stewart also played an instrumental role in elevating WKU’s athletic programs to Conference USA. In its final year in the Sun Belt Conference in 2013-14, WKU won the league’s all-sports championship for the sixth overall time but first since 2008. A total of 110 student-athletes graduated during the year, and six sport programs captured conference championships - the most in a single-year since 2008-09. WKU’s volleyball, soccer, and women’s indoor and outdoor track teams captured Sun Belt Conference regular season championships, while the men’s swimming and diving team won the Conference USA Invitational. Women’s basketball posted 24 wins en route to winning the Sun Belt Conference Tournament and earning the program’s first NCAA Tournament berth since 2008. The Hilltoppers’ 2013 football team posted a program Football Bowl Subdivision-era-best 8-4 overall record and had four wins over bowl eligible teams, more than the previous five seasons combined. WKU’s eight wins included a second consecutive win over Kentucky along with victories over Navy, Army and Sun Belt Conference co-champion Arkansas State, while the 18,334 per game home attendance average was the highest in the program’s 95-year history. WKU’s men’s outdoor track program set a program record with seven first-team AllAmericans while finishing tied for 18th in the nation, the highest national team finish for any WKU program since men’s basketball reached the Sweet 16 in 2008.
The 2012-13 year, Stewart’s first full-year as Director of Athletics, marked the first time since the APR variable was introduced that all 19 WKU sports exceeded the single-year 930 APR threshold, and 108 student-athletes graduated during the year. Five sport programs (volleyball, women’s swimming and diving, men’s track and field, men’s basketball, softball) won conference championships. Despite a fifth-place conference finish in football, Stewart’s navigation of the bowl landscape helped secure the program’s first-ever FBS bowl bid, an at-large appearance in the 2012 Little Caesars Pizza Bowl. Men’s basketball became the first team in NCAA history to win its conference tournament two consecutive years by winning four games in four days each time. Softball posted two wins in the NCAA Tournament, the first in the program’s history, while women’s basketball won a game in the WNIT, the program’s first postseason win since 2006-07. Volleyball also capped a 33-4 season by winning the program’s first-ever NCAA Tournament match. A member of WKU’s senior athletic staff since 2008 and 25year veteran of collegiate and professional sports, Stewart was named WKU’s Director of Athletics on May 9, 2012, after serving in the role on an interim basis since March 22. After nearly two years as WKU’s Senior Associate Athletic Director, Stewart was named Interim Director of Athletics on March 22 after the departure of Ross Bjork to Ole Miss. He was immediately responsible for the day-to-day operation of WKU’s athletic department and its 19 varsity sports and over 400 student-athletes and employees. In that role, Stewart completed the hiring of Michelle Clark-Heard as head women’s basketball coach and oversaw the assistant coach hiring for both Heard and head men’s basketball coach Ray Harper. Stewart was elevated to Senior Associate Athletic Director in August of 2010 after serving as WKU’s Associate Athletic Director for Communications and Media Relations since June of 2008. As Senior Associate Athletic Director, Stewart served as second-in-command in the department and assisted in strategic initiatives that advanced the mission of athletics, served as a critical advisor for all important decisions for

Stewart joined WKU in June of 2008 after a 40-month stint as Associate Commissioner for Communications for the Sun Belt Conference, where he and his staff were responsible for internal and external communications for all Sun Belt Conference publicity.

He also served on the NFL’s Media Policies Committee.
Prior to joining the Browns, Stewart was the Assistant Director of Public Relations for the Indianapolis Colts from 1991-99, where he helped direct activities between the organization, community and media with major responsibilities focused on writing press releases and producing team publications as well as arranging and coordinating interviews and press conferences.

Big RED
the spirit of western
Big Red, WKU’s athletic mascot, was born in the fall of 1979 and celebrates its birthday on December 1st. Big Red can be best described as the Spirit of Western! The huge, furry, lovable creature was originally designed and built by WKU student Ralph Carey, (’80 WKU graduate), of Cincinnati, and made its debut during the Hilltoppers’ 1979-80 basketball season. Big Red has become a big hit with fans of all ages throughout the state and the nation. Big Red’s signature moves are the belly slide and belly shake. Big Red is an eight-time participant in the Capital One Mascot Challenge and, in 2012, Big Red was named the first member of the Capital One Mascot Challenge Hall of Fame. Prior to the 2013 season, Sports Illustrated rated Big Red as the No. 9 mascot in college football. Of course, on The Hill, we all think Big Red is No. 1. The ultimate fan and supporter of all WKU’s intercollegiate sports, Big Red won the “Key to Spirit” award, the highest honor presented to team mascots at the time, at the Universal Cheerleading Association competition in 1980, 1981 and again in 1983. In the spring of 1990, Big Red reached the “Final Four” of the UCA’s second annual national championship event in San Antonio, Texas, taking third-place honors. Then, in the spring of 1996, Big Red reached the “Final Four” of ESPN SportZone’s “Battle of the Mascots” in public balloting on the Internet. Big Red was the centerpiece of ESPN’s promotion of the 25,000th SportsCenter, airing in August 2002. The famed mascot has also been featured in two SportsCenter commercials as well. In 2005, Big Red placed second at the Universal Cheerleader Association’s Summer Camp in Knoxville, Tenn. Also, in 2005 Big Red was voted the favorite mascot (of participating schools) at the NCAA Mascot Mania celebration in Indianapolis, Ind.
