nick denes field ‘the nick’ QUICK FACTS Capacity 1,500 Surface Natural Grass Stadium Opening 1969 Renovation Completed 2007 Seasons 46 Home Record 795-438-5 (.644) Top Crowd 3,057 vs. Kentucky, 04/23/08 Winning Seasons at Home 42 20-Win Seasons at Home 14 Nick Denes Field, affectionately known as “The Nick” by WKU fans, has been home for the Hilltoppers since the facility was completed in 1968 in time for the 1969 baseball season. The field is named after WKU Athletic Hall of Famer Nick Denes, who coached the WKU Baseball program from 1958-62 and also led the Hilltopper Football squad from 1957-67. With a natural grass infield and outfield surface and field dimensions running 330 feet down the lines and 400 feet to straightaway center, The Nick has certainly developed a reputation as being a pitcher’s park. The facility has undergone over $3 million in renovations since 2002, including the additions of a baseball clubhouse in 2010 and indoor hitting facility in 2002. The clubhouse project was $1 million and was made possible in part to a generous gift from former
WKU Baseball student-athlete Paul Orberson, whom the Hilltoppers named the clubhouse after. The 4,200 square-foot clubhouse features a head coach’s office and two assistant coach offices along with a coaches locker room. The clubhouse also houses a large players’ locker room and players’ lounge, which had major design renovations completed during the summer of 2014. Additionally, the clubhouse has a 250-square foot equipment room and has an on-site training room for injury prevention and rehabilitation. An enclosed press box with three rows of press seating and two suites was added to the top of the grandstands in 2002. A pair of fan decks past each dugout, often referred to as “Rally Alley”, were added in 2006 as were bullpens to go along with a new outfield wall. Eighthundred red chair back seats stretching from dugoutto-dugout were also tacked onto the grandstands to increase stadium capacity to 1,500 in the early 90’s and the facility had lights installed for the first time in 1994. The Hilltoppers have been a dominant home team at Nick Denes Field, particularly in recent years, and have a .644 winning percentage at home since opening play at the facility in 1969. The Tops have won 142-of-208 (.682) games at home since 2008, including a schoolrecord mark of 27-3 in 2009. WKU won 20-of-27 games at The Nick in 2014 and is five home wins shy of hitting the 800-win plateau in 2015. WKU has been .500 or better at home in eightconsecutive seasons and has only been under .500 four times in 46 seasons at Nick Denes Field.
Nick Denes Field has played home to 795 Hilltopper victories since opening in 1969

2015 OUTLOOK
2015 OUTLOOK Overall The Hilltoppers have steadily improved during each of the past two seasons under head coach Matt Myers and have developed a reputation for taking down national powers but WKU aims to take the next step as a program in 2015 by advancing to a NCAA Regional. Myers and his Tops have taken out six Top 25 teams since the start of his tenure in 2012 but haven’t been able to string together late season wins to propel themselves back to regional action, where they made postseason noise during the 2008-09 seasons.
Redshirt senior catcher Ryan Messex was a 2014 Johhny Bench Watch List member and provides the Hilltoppers with one of the strongest catch-and-throw arms in the country. Messex gunned down 19 runners trying to steal last season and picked off four others. He proved to be one of the most disciplined hitters in the nation as a junior, striking out just 11 times in 158 at bats – a mark that ranked second in the SBC and 53rd nationally. His bat cooled late in the season after being well over .300 for most of the year but he still finished with a .285 average and 15 multi-hit games.
Myers returns six of his top nine hitters from last year’s potent Hilltopper offense and has the bullpen depth to take the Tops to the next level during their inaugural season in Conference USA. A challenging schedule featuring seven 2014 NCAA Regional opponents and four preseason Top 15 programs lies in front of WKU but with 11 position players and 10 pitchers returning from 2014’s 29-win squad, the Hilltoppers are primed for success as they journey into their new league.
Sophomore catchers Hunter Wood and Ty Hogan provide depth behind Messex. Wood will also be in contention for starts at designated hitter as he pounded out 15 RBI on 14 hits in 57 at bats as a rookie.
Infield No position group returns more experience for the Tops than the infielders, who bring back 165 combined starts between four players from a 2014 unit that turned 50 double plays. Senior shortstop Cody Wofford and senior first baseman Ryan Church return after stellar first seasons on The Hill while utility infielders Thomas Peter and Leiff Clarkson are also back for 2015. Wofford, who slugged. 462 and drove in 26 RBI from his leadoff position last year, anchors the Hilltopper infield with his strong arm and tremendous range at short. Church was a Second Team All-Sun Belt Conference selection at first base in 2014 after leading WKU with 38 RBI, 21 multiple-hit games, seven home runs, 102 total bases and a .371 batting average with runners in scoring position. Newcomer Danny Hudzina, who played with Church in junior college at Palm Beach State, is expected to make major contributions at third base this year while Peter and Clarkson will bolster depth on the hot corner and second base, respectively. Peter made 59 starts at third base over his first two seasons and Clarkson made 38 starts on the left side of the infield in 2014 while relieving Wofford and Peter for injuries at different points in the year. Clarkson came on strong in relief and became a mainstay in the lineup, finishing his rookie campaign with 42 hits and a .316 average.

Competition will be the theme in the Hilltopper outfield in 2015 as Miller enters the season as the only apparent mainstay. Local product Trevor Lowe has made 63 starts in the outfield in his first two seasons on The Hill and senior Philip Diedrick brings a big arm and bat to the table as an option in right field. Sophomore Paul Murray saw limited action in the outfield as a rookie but gives WKU a powerful option in left, as does redshirt freshman Harrison Scanlon in right.

general
Outfield WKU loses two major outfield pieces (Regan Flaherty and David Simmons) from last year’s unit that combined for 15 outfield assists but returns junior star Anderson Miller, who led WKU with a .335 batting average, .879 OPS, 40 runs scored, four triples and four outfield assists. Miller’s breakout sophomore campaign led to Second Team All-SBC honors and an invitation to play in the Cape Cod League, where he played for the Wareham Gatemen in one of the nation’s most elite summer leagues for college players. He’s spent significant time in both left and right field early in his career but has the speed to be an option in center.
2015 OUTLOOK Pitching There will be plenty of proving ground to cover for the Hilltopper pitching staff in 2015 as it is tasked with filling the shoes of two of the best pitchers in WKU history in Justin Hageman and Ian Tompkins. Both were First Team All-SBC pitchers in 2014 as Hageman went 6-2 with a 2.63 ERA as the ace while Tompkins shattered the school record for single-season saves with 14. Hageman finished his career ranked sixth all-time with 243 strikeouts while Tompkins struck out 161 in 117.0 relief innings. Take away those two pieces along with No. 3 starter Jake Thompson and reliable reliever Austin Clay - there are some big roles to fill for the 2015 staff. But Myers and pitching coach Blake Allen are confident that the pieces are in place. Junior RHP Josh Bartley returns after a strong sophomore campaign where he developed from a midweek starter to the Saturday option halfway through the season. He went head-to-head with Vanderbilt’s Walker Buehler, a 2015 Preseason First Team All-American, and emerged victorious against the eventual College World Series Champions in Nashville last February and also took down 2013 NCAA Regional qualifier Illinois. Bartley will compete for a spot in the weekend rotation again in 2015 with sophomores Sam Higgs (RHP) and Ryan Thurston (LHP) along with newcomer southpaws John Harman and Austin King. No WKU pitcher was hotter than Thurston at the end of 2014 as the lefty only allowed three runs over his final 28.2 innings, which included four starts against Lipscomb, at No. 18 Indiana, at No. 12 Louisville and at Austin Peay. He took a no-hitter into the ninth inning at No. 18 Indiana and finished 2014 with the lowest ERA on the team at 2.16. Higgs was WKU’s secondmost called up relief ace as a rookie but has the arm stamina to compete for a starting role in 2015. He started two midweek contests and appeared in relief 23 times last year in route to five wins and a save. Harman (Darton State) and King (Seward County CC) were dominant lefties at their respective junior colleges and bring starting caliber talent to the mound. Harman registered quality starts in 11 of his 15 starts in 2014 and sported an ERA of 2.33 in 104.1 innings of work. King started 12 games for Seward County as a sophomore and displayed amazing control in striking out 78 batters compared to just four walks in 77.0 innings. King shined during the annual Fall World Series at The Nick in October when he struck out eight and retired the final 13 batters in lifting the Red Team to a series-clinching victory.

2015 HILLTOPPER BASEBALL
The back end of WKU’s bullpen was a strength in 2014 with Tompkins shutting the door in 14-of-15 save opportunities but the Tops will have to find a replacement for that production this year. Sophomore Ben Morrison had a strong summer in the Prospect League with the Terre Haute Rex and showed 92-94 velocity in the fall. Morrison and senior Brennan Pearson are two of WKU’s top swing-and-miss arms and should have major roles at the back end of the bullpen this year. Lefty Anderson Miller, who was initially recruited as a two-way player but has only made one pitching appearance in his WKU career, is expected to take on bullpen role as a junior and displayed good velocity during the fall after injuring his throwing shoulder in 2013. Seniors Brandon Allen and Tate Glasscock are also proven veterans who can fill a variety of roles in the bullpen. Redshirt sophomore Jackson Sowell should be back after missing most of 2014 with an elbow injury and sophomore Cody Coll also returns. Kevin Elder was a major piece to Iowa Western’s NJCAA National Championship team last year and will compete for innings as will four true freshmen. WKU has had an ERA of 4.35 or lower in four of the past five seasons and takes its traditionally strong staff to Conference USA, which has been a dominant pitching league over the years.

matt myers WKU head baseball coach Matt Myers enters his fourth season at the helm of the Hilltopper baseball program, and his eighth season overall on the Hill. Myers guided WKU to 29 wins in 2014, the Hilltoppers’ most victories since the 2011 season. WKU’s 15-15 mark in Sun Belt Conference play earned a fifth-place finish in the league standings. Myers and his staff focused on bringing in offensive talent during the 2013 offseason and that focus showed in 2014 as the Hilltoppers finished the regular season ranked seventh in the nation with 116 doubles, 18th with 560 hits and 26th with a .416 slugging percentage. WKU tallied at least 10 hits in 31 of 57 games and out-hit its opponents on 37 occasions. The Hilltoppers were fast out of the gate for the secondstraight season, starting the year with a 10-5 record, which was headlined by a win at No. 4 Vanderbilt, the eventual 2014 College World Series Champion, and a sweep of 2013 NCAA Regional qualifier Illinois in Bowling Green. WKU knocked off the fourth-ranked Commodores 3-2 on Feb. 25 to become the first team in WKU Athletics’ history to defeat the eventual national champions. The Hilltoppers were the first team in the nation to defeat two Top 5 teams on the road in 2014 as they also took down No. 1 Louisiana-Lafayette 14-3 in the opening game of their league series on March 29. WKU’s 14-3 win over the top-ranked Cajuns was the largest margin of victory for any team against Louisiana-Lafayette in 2014. The Cajuns wound up with a national best 58 wins in 2014 and earned a No. 6 national seed in the NCAA Tournament.

Myers led the Hilltoppers to 28-29 record during the 2013 season, including a 16-14 clip in Sun Belt Conference play. WKU’s 16 wins in league play marked the sixth time in the past seven seasons that the Hilltoppers finished .500 or better in the league. WKU finished fifth in the regular season standings in a banner year for the conference, which saw a record four teams earn bids to the NCAA Baseball Regionals.

WKU finished 2014 with a 29-28 record with an 8-16 record against teams that finished Top 100 in the RPI. Two of those eight wins came at Vanderbilt and LouisianaLafayette, who both finished Top 10 in RPI and combined to win 108 games. The Hilltoppers’ opponents were a combined 716-625 (.533) in 2014 and five foes advanced to the NCAA Tournament.
Under Myers direction, five WKU pitchers struck out 50 or more batters in 2013, led by Saturday starter Andrew Edwards’ 75 strikeouts. Friday night ace Tanner Perkins rebounded from a 2012 season-ending injury to post solid numbers, fanning 51 batters in 63 innings of work. Austin Clay and Ian Tompkins emerged as lethal options out of the bullpen, combining to strike out 115 batters in 109 innings of work. The duo limited hitters to a .211 batting average and surrendered just 44 earned runs. WKU finished the regular season with an average of 8.4 strikeouts per nine innings, ranking eighth nationally.

Five Hilltoppers finished 2014 with batting averages better than .300, led by Second-Team All-SBC outfielder Anderson Miller’s clip of .335. Miller pounded out 67 hits, scored 40 runs, drove in 33 RBI and had 18 extra-base hits as a sophomore to lead the Hilltopper offense. Junior first baseman Ryan Church also flourished in his first year on the Hill, leading WKU with 38 RBI and seven home runs on his way to Second-Team All-SBC honors.
Myers’ WKU squad had a knack for playing its best against the toughest competition in 2013, picking up wins over three nationally-ranked opponents for the first time since 2005, including a pair of victories over No.8 ranked Kentucky and No.8 ranked Louisville, who advanced to the College World Series. The Hilltoppers also defeated Kentucky later in the season when the Wildcats were ranked No.24. WKU picked up six wins against teams that finished the regular season ranked Top 50 in the RPI and defeated six different NCAA Regional qualifiers a total of nine times.
hilltoppers 2014 review
Myers coached senior pitcher Justin Hageman to a FirstTeam All-Sun Belt Conference caliber season, guiding his ace to a 6-2 record with a 2.63 ERA. Hageman registered nine quality starts and won all of his games against Sun Belt foes on his way to becoming WKU’s first First-Team All-SBC pitcher since Matt Ridings in 2010. Junior reliever Ian Tompkins also thrived in 2014, setting a single-season WKU record with 14 saves and earning First-Team All-SBC honors. Tompkins was drafted by the Kansas City Royals in the 14th round and was named a Third-Team Academic All-American following the 2014 season.
WKU jumped out to a quick start in SBC play in 2013, holding or sharing the conference lead for the first five weeks of league play. The Hilltoppers kicked off conference action and ended the regular season with sweeps of rival Middle Tennessee, marking the first time in program history WKU went 6-0 against the Blue Raiders. WKU also took the series against regular-season co-champion Troy for the second-straight season, another program first.
general
Four teams in the nation wound up winning 50 games or more during the 2014 season and WKU played three of them (Vanderbilt, Louisiana-Lafayette, Louisville), going 2-4 in those contests.
COACHING STAFF Senior slugger Ryan Huck strung together one of the best offensive seasons in WKU history under Myers, slugging .694 and blasting 16 home runs in his final campaign. Huck led WKU in virtually every offensive category including batting average (.367), doubles (16), home runs (16), RBI (56), total bases (136), slugging percentage (.694) and on-base percentage (.469). Both Huck and Edwards were selected in the 2013 MLB Draft, with Edwards going in the 19th round to the Kansas City Royals and Huck being selected by the Oakland Athletics in the 27th round. Myers, who spent four years as an assistant coach at WKU before being named the permanent head coach on July 11, 2011, has 23 years of Division I experience as a head coach, assistant coach and a student-athlete. In his first season as head coach at WKU, Myers’ Hilltoppers went 25-33 in 2012, persevering despite battling difficult injuries throughout the season, including star pitcher Tanner Perkins, who was lost for the season on March 3. The left-handed starter had posted a 7-4 record in 2011, to go along with a 2.36 ERA, and was 1-0 with a 3.22 ERA in three starts before the injury in 2012. Despite the loss of Perkins, the WKU pitching rotation relied heavily on the emergence of left-handed starters Tim Bado and Austin Clay, who won a combined eight games in 2012. Clay performed well down the stretch, winning over rival Middle Tennessee in the final series of the season, and allowed only 19 walks in 74.0 innings of work.
bullpen, to go along with a pair of starts. Haydel worked 65.0 innings in his junior campaign, striking out 74 batters, while walking only 12, which is good for nearly a 7:1 strikeout-to-walk ratio. The Hilltopper pitching staff as a whole struck out 443 in 2012, which increased from 414 strikeouts in 2011. The 443 strikeouts ranked second in the Sun Belt Conference, as WKU averaged 7.45 strikeouts per nine innings. The Hilltopper pitching staff also limited the deep ball, allowing a Sun Belt low 22 home runs on the year, which was 12 less than the next-closest school. On the offensive side, Myers saw his Hilltopper squad bring a more patient approach to the batter’s box in 2012, as WKU drew 277 walks on the year, good for the sixthmost in program history, and the most since drawing 290 free passes in 2009. Arguably the biggest win for Myers and his staff in 2012 came at Bowling Green Ballpark on May 1, as the Hilltoppers took down 18th-ranked Louisville 8-1 in front of 2,323 fans. Myers’ Hilltoppers held Louisville to just one run on four hits, as the WKU bullpen went four innings, not allowing a single hit after starter Ian Thompkins allowed just one run on four hits over 6.0 innings of work. The win at Bowling Green Ballpark moved the Hilltoppers to 4-0 at the venue all-time in regular season games, outscoring opponents 58-22 during those four games.

As a player, Myers pitched two seasons at Tennessee (1996-97), posting a 13-4 career record and helping the Volunteers to a pair of NCAA Regional appearances. The 1996 Tennessee team was one win shy of making the College World Series, the equivalent of being a Super Regional finalist. His .765 winning percentage ranks fifth all-time at Tennessee. He also pitched a season at Cal State-Sacramento (1994) and Sacramento City College (1995).

Throughout his coaching career, Myers has coached 31 professional draft picks or free agent signees, 18 allconference pitchers, six freshman All-Americans, three first-team All-Americans, two conference pitchers of the year, and two conference freshmen of the year. Myers, who was WKU’s associate head coach before his appointment to head coach, has also coached five pitchers selected in the top 10 rounds of the MLB First Year Player Draft.
Prior to his arrival at Auburn, Myers served as the head coach at UNC Asheville for four seasons, earning Big South Conference Coach of the Year honors in 2003. Taking the position at the age of 26 - the youngest Division I head coach at the time - Myers directed a turnaround within the Bulldog baseball program, finishing in the top half of the league in each of his final three years at Asheville, including 27 wins in 2003, leading to his Coach of the Year honor. Myers, much like he has done everywhere he has been, developed pitching during his time with the Bulldogs, as his staff set five school records during his tenure, and saw seven of his pitchers sign professionally and four others earn Freshman All-America honors.

Despite the loss of five seniors following the 2012 season, Myers and his coaching staff put together a stellar signing class stocked full of high school and junior college talent. In what was Myers’ first official signing class since taking over the reins of the WKU program, the Hilltopper head coach ended up with 14 signees in the class, with seven from the state of Kentucky, including four from within a 30-mile radius of Bowling Green. The class spanned from seven different states, with five junior college players looking to make immediate impacts in 2013.

WKU clinched a berth in the conference tournament after taking a 5-4, 13-inning thriller over the Blue Raiders at Nick Denes Field in game two of the series.
Before joining the WKU baseball staff, Myers spent three seasons as an assistant coach at Auburn University, joining Tom Slater’s staff with the Tigers. Myers served as an assistant at Auburn with former Hilltopper head coach Chris Finwood, who was an assistant coach at Auburn at the time of Myers’ arrival. In his first year at Auburn, Myers helped guide the Tiger pitching staff to a 3.89 team ERA, the lowest by a Tigers staff in 10 years. The team also posted 21 saves and surrendered just 169 walks during the 2005 season - the fewest walks issued by any staff in the Southeastern Conference. Myers saw four of his pitchers selected in the first 13 rounds of the 2005 MLB First Year Player Draft.

blake allen ASSISTANT coach - pitching/recruiting 7th SEASON at WKU | Blackburn college (2001) WKU assistant coach Blake Allen enters his seventh year as an assistant with the Hilltopper Baseball program, heading up the efforts with the WKU pitchers and with recruiting. Allen, who spent four years as a volunteer assistant at Vanderbilt University, came to the Hill under former WKU head coach Chris Finwood in 2009. Allen mentored Justin Hageman and Ian Tompkins to First-Team All-Sun Belt Conference honors in 2014, which was WKU’s first all-conference pitching duo since the 2010 season. Hageman registered nine quality starts and won all six of his games in conference action on his way to all-conference accolades with an ERA of 2.62. Hageman was a two-time Sun Belt Conference Pitcher of the Week and flourished as a senior in WKU’s Friday night starting role. Tompkins set a single-season record with 14 saves in 2014, which included two saves in a three-game sweep over Illinois and a four-out save at No. 4 Vanderbilt on Feb. 25. Tompkins went on to get drafted by the Kansas City Royals in the 14th round after posting a career strikeouts per nine innings clip of 12.38, which ranked third among active NCAA pitchers before he left. He was also key in the development of young pitchers Josh Bartley, Ryan Thurston and Sam Higgs in 2014. Bartley strung together a quality start in WKU’s 3-2 win over No. 4 Vanderbilt, tossing five scoreless and hitless innings before surrendering his first damage in the sixth inning. He earned a start the next weekend against Illinois, registering another win and quality start before solidifying himself in WKU’s weekend rotation. Thurston was stellar as a midweek starter and reliever down the stretch as he allowed just three runs in his final 28 innings of the season.

Allen has served as WKU’s recruiting coordinator during the Myers era and ushered in a new wave of talent in the 2013-14 signing class that contributed immediately. Junior college transfer Ryan Church earned Second-Team All-Sun Belt Conference honors after leading WKU with 38 RBI and seven home runs while batting .306 at first base. Fellow JUCO transfers Cody Wofford and Philip Diedrick also contributed significantly, combining for 85 hits, 43 RBI and 29 extrabase hits. Freshmen Ryan Thurston and Sam Higgs were vital bullpen pieces and freshman catcher Hunter Wood collected 15 RBI in limited pinch-hit at bats.
Allen has witnessed Hilltopper position players move on to the next level, as nine different position players have been drafted in the Major League Baseball FirstYear Player Draft since 2009. That list includes 2011 draftee and former Hilltopper outfielder Kes Carter, who was tabbed as the 56th overall pick by the Tampa Bay Rays - the highest draft pick in school history. Allen also helped develop Wade Gaynor into a third-round selection by the Detroit Tigers in 2009. Gaynor won a MiLB Gold Glove at third base with the Class Double AA Eerie Seawolves in 2013 and was bumped up to the Triple A Toledo Mudhens early in the 2014 season. In all, 20 players have signed professional baseball contracts since Allen’s arrival on the Hill In Allen’s four years with the Vanderbilt program, he worked primarily with hitters and catchers and also assisted with the team’s strength and conditioning program. During his four seasons with the Commodores, Allen was part of three NCAA Regional teams, as well as an SEC championship team in 2007. The 2007 team was ranked No. 1 in the nation for most of the season and received the top overall seed in the NCAA Tournament. Allen worked with three catchers in his four years at Vanderbilt that were drafted in the top 20 rounds of the Major League Baseball First-Year Player Draft. Brian Hernandez was taken in the 19th round of the 2006 MLB Draft by the San Diego Padres, and Shea Robin was a 20th round selection in 2008 by the Houston Astros. In four seasons at Vanderbilt, Allen tutored 38 players that ended up signing professional baseball contracts.

COACHING STAFF A native of St. Louis, Mo., Allen began his collegiate playing career at DePauw (Ind.) University and finished at Blackburn (Ill.) College. At Blackburn, Allen was an all-conference and record-setting performer in both baseball and football. He joined the Vanderbilt coaching staff after one year as baseball recruiting coordinator and linebackers/ special teams coach for football at Franklin (Ind.) College. While there, he worked with the catchers and hitters, and also was involved with the strength and conditioning program as the baseball team set a record for home runs in a season and finished with its secondbest victory total in team history. Prior to that, he was a graduate assistant for both football and baseball for two years at DePauw. Allen earned his Bachelor of Arts degree from Blackburn College in 2001 and his Masters in Kinesiology from Indiana State in 2003. A native of St. Louis, Mo., Allen is married to the former Cristin Czubik. The couple has two daughters, Keelyn and Quinley Jane.

Brendan Dougherty enters his fourth season as an assistant baseball coach at WKU. He came to the Hill in March 2011 following a six-year stint as an assistant at Coastal Carolina.
Personal Born: October 13, 1974 Hometown: Trenton, N.J. Family: Jonna (Wife), Cruz (Son), Knox (Son) Education Coastal Carolina: B.A. (Interdisciplinary Studies 1998) PLAYING CAREER College: Potomac State (1994-95; NJCAA AllAmerican both years, inducted into school’s HOF in 2008), Coastal Carolina (1996-97).

Defensively, WKU turned 50 double plays and led the Sun Belt Conference with 32 runners caught stealing in 2014. Dougherty’s defense committed five less errors than it did in 2013 and surrendered the lowest stolen base success rate (.584) in the league.

COACHING STAFF His work with senior first baseman Ryan Huck in 2013 aided the slugger to a tremendous campaign on the offensive and defensive end as he posted a .367 batting average with 16 home runs and 16 RBI along with a .988 fielding percentage. Huck was one of three hitters to hit over .300 in 2013 after no Hilltoppers achieved the mark in 2012. Huck, Scott Wilcox and Steve Hodgins all finished 2013 with a batting average of .300 or better and WKU’s team average improved by 15 points. WKU also improved dramatically in extra-base hits, accounting for 144 on the year compared to 120 in 2012. Dougherty’s efforts helped produce 24 games with at least six runs, including a pair of double-digit performances in wins against NCAA Regional qualifiers Louisiana-Lafayette and South Alabama. WKU was solid in turning the double play in 2013, as they accounted for 42 on the season. In a three-game series at South Alabama, an eventual NCAA Regional qualifer and regular season Sun Belt champion, shortstop Scott Wilcox, second baseman Steve Hodgins and Huck teamed up for seven double plays. The Hilltoppers also defended the bases well, catching 38 runners stealing, the second most in the Sun Belt. Dougherty signals hitters and base runners from 3B during games
In his first true offseason with the program, Dougherty helped bring in a 14-member signing for 2012-13. The large signing class included student-athletes from seven different states, including seven from the state of Kentucky and four from within a 30-mile radius of Bowling Green. Several freshmen members of the class contributed significantly in 2013 while junior college transfers Andrew Edwards and Regan Flaherty made tremendous impact immediately. In Dougherty’s first year on the Hill, he helped the Hilltoppers to a .971 fielding percentage, good for the fourth-best percentage in the Sun Belt Conference. Two of the Hilltopper infielders - Ryan Huck and Scott Wilcox - posted fielding percentages of .994 and .978, respectively. Wilcox, a second team all-Sun Belt Conference selection as a utility player, saw action at three of the four infield positions in 2012, making only nine errors in a team-best 400 chances. Dougherty experienced success at the highest level as an assistant at Coastal Carolina, as the Chanticleer’s made five consecutive trips to the NCAA Tournament, including a berth in the Super Regionals in both 2008 and 2010. Coastal Carolina’s 2010 run was due in large part to the play of the infield, as the Chanticleer’s turned 50 doubles plays and saw shortstop Taylor Motter, third baseman Scott Woodward and second baseman Tommy La Stella each earn first team All-Big South honors. While at Coastal Carolina, Dougherty also coached third baseman Tyler Bortnick, who was selected by the Tampa Bay Rays in the 16th round of the 2009 Major League First-Year Player draft, along with first baseman David Anderson who was named the Big South Player of the Year and Big South Tournament MVP after posting a .989 fielding percentage in 63 games and hitting 21 home runs in 2009. Before making the move to Coastal Carolina, Dougherty spent a pair of seasons as an assistant coach at Army. During Dougherty’s stay, the Black Knights won the Patriot League title and advanced to the NCAA Regionals. In Dougherty’s first year at West Point, he helped second baseman Nate Stone to an AllAmerica honor from the American Baseball Coaches’ Association, becoming the first Army player in 40 years to accomplish that feat. Before Army, Dougherty spent the 2003 season at Auburn, working with the Tigers’ infielders, outfielders and catchers, while assisting with bunting and baserunning.

hilltopper legends #14 Jack Glasser
#36 Joel Murrie
Dr. Jack Glasser became the first player in WKU Baseball history to have his jersey retired when he was honored on April 19, 2011 prior to the Hilltoppers’ victory over Kentucky. Glasser’s No. 14 jersey is displayed on the right field wall at Nick Denes Field below the scoreboard.
Joel Murrie’s 815 wins over the course of 26 seasons as WKU’s head coach still stand as the most victories of any WKU coach in any single sport. The legendary skipper wore No. 36 from 1980-2005 and will have his number retired on March 8, 2015, prior to the Hilltoppers’ series finale against Ohio State.
Glasser (1969-73) was a three-time All-Ohio Valley Conference catcher and started all four of his years on The Hill. He finished his stellar career with a .326 career batting average and hit .364 with 17 RBI as a senior. Glasser was WKU Baseball’s first All-American, earning First Team CoSIDA Academic All-American honors in 1973. He was also the university’s first Athlete of the Year honoree in 1973 and graduated Cum Laude from the WKU pre-med program as a biology major. Glasser, who still lives in the area and is a highly regarded local physician, was inducted into the WKU Athletic Hall of Fame in 1999. He has continued to be a supporter of WKU Athletics over the years, formerly serving as president of the Alumni W-Club and assisting in baseball broadcasts each spring.
As the head coach of the Hilltoppers, Murrie guided the program to three-straight Ohio Valley Conference titles (1980-82), two Sun Belt Conference championships (1985, 1988), a pair of NCAA Regional appearances (1980, 2004) and was a four-time conference coach of the year (1980-81, 1985, 2002). During his 26-year tenure WKU won 40 or more games four times, including a program best 47-13-1 mark in 1980 where the Tops advanced to their first NCAA Regional in school history. WKU defeated Vanderbilt and New Orleans before being ousted by host Florida State in the Regional Championship . Murrie returned WKU to NCAA Regional play after winning the 2004 SBC Tournament and the Tops blanked No. 1 seed host Ole Miss 1-0 before being eliminated later in the regional. Murrie, a 2012 WKU Athletic Hall of Fame inductee, developed six major leaguers, including 2000 World Series champion Chris Turner (Yankees), and 80 players that were signed or drafted professionally.
Jack Glasser, WKU’s first baseball All-American, hit .326 over 4 seasons

Brief History
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. 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 Fountain Square Park in downtown Bowling Green

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 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.

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%. 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.

Director of Athletics
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 post-season 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 cochampion 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 their 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 post-season win since 200607. 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 25-year 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.

Big RED
the spirit of western
Big Red, Western Kentucky University’s athletic mascot, was born in the fall of 1979 and 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 Hall of Fame. Prior to the 2013 season, Sports Illustrated rated Big Red as the number nine 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, TX, 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.
