HOME OF CHAMPIONS Since it’s rebirth in 2004 after a 24 year absence, the West Texas A&M Softball Program has become a nationally recognizable name in NCAA Division II Softball. A combination of great coaching, strong recruiting and talented young athletes has propelled the program to tremendous levels of success with a bright future. The Lady Buffs registered their best season, yet, in 2010, finishing the season with a 45-18 overall record and the program’s first ever Lone Star Conference South Division Championship. WT made its first-ever appearance in the NCAA Postseason, resulting in a trip to the NCAA Division II South Central Regional Finals. Head Coach Kevin Blaskowski enters his sixth season at the helm of the WT Softball Program. Hired in 2004 to bring the program back to the WT campus after a 24 year absence, over his first five years, Blaskowski has

registered a 131-153 overall record, with a South Division Championship and an LSC South Division Coach of the Year Award in 2010. Over his career, Blaskowski has compiled a 483-430 (.531) overall record during his 18 years of coaching. LSC Preseason Player of the Year Kim LeComte returns to the Lady Buff outfield after having a tremendous season in 2010 that saw her belt 21 home runs with 68 RBI, to become the first NFCA First Team All-American in school history. Fellow outfielder Kasey Henderson also returns after finishing the 2010 season with a team leading .437 batting average, with 90 hits and 27 stolen bases. Her 90 hits were just three shy of the LSC record for hits in a season. In the circle, the Lady Buffs return a pair of starters in Marci Womack and LSC Preseason Pitcher of the Year

Shelbey Cockrell. Womack registered 167.2 innings of work in 2010 with 85 strikeouts and a 17-11 record while Cockrell led the nation in saves (8) and finished the season 10-0 with a 1.85 ERA. The 2011 season finds West Texas A&M fielding a solid core of returning players and a talented group of newcomers, with ambitions of propelling the program into the national spotlight. The National Fastpitch Coaches Association (NFCA) named the Lady Buffs as the #6 team in all of Division II in their Preseason Top 25 Poll, announced in early February. The ranking was the Lady Buffs’ highest ranking, ever.

Lady buff yard West Texas A&M University is home to one of the finest Division II softball complexes in the nation. Lady Buff Yard is a state-of-the-art in every way and provides West Texas A&M softball players and coaches with an all-inclusive complex that includes locker rooms, meeting rooms, batting cages and one of the best playing surfaces anywhere in the country. “We are very fortunate to have the administrative support that we have” said Lady Buff head coach Kevin Blaskowski “With their support, we now get the opportunity to practice and play in one of the nicest softball facilities in collegiate softball. The Yard is definitely the nicest Division II facility in the country and it rivals most Division I facilities.” WT’s dream of a new, state-of-the-art softball complex became a reality when ground was broken in a ceremony in the winter of 2009. Construction workers worked continuously to complete the facility, which also competition fields for soccer, track and field and baseball along with tennis courts, outdoor basketball courts, three intramural fields for flag football and slow-pitch softball and practice facilities for football, soccer and the WTAMU Marching Band. The result was the creation of one of the nation’s premier collegiate sports complexes. Lady Buff Yard which was completed in December of 2010, includes ticket and concession buildings and a spacious pressbox with radio/television booths. The home dugout is connected to the team’s clubhouse which consists of coaches’ offices, a laundry facility, a team meeting room and locker room.

“This is a great facility that has every amenity that you would want” said Blaskowski “It is a great playing surface with one of the best lighting systems available and it is a major plus to have our clubhouse, offices and laundry facility immediately accessible. I envision our players and staff spending a lot of down time just hanging out in the clubhouse. It is a beautiful facility.” The lighted facility is made completely of AstroTurf GameDay 3D synthetic turf with the combination

of green and chocolate brown for a perfect looking playing surface year-round. The stands feature 150 chair back seats for members of the Buffalo Club and season ticket holder and another 340 general admission seats for a total capacity of 490. “I think fans are going to love coming to games at The Yard” said Blaskowski “There is not a bad seat and fans will be able to see everything that happens on the field. The atmosphere will be one of the best ballpark atmospheres in the country.”

About the lone star conference Long known as a leader in intercollegiate athletics, the Lone Star Conference (LSC) is an innovative athletics conference which aims to provide a superior competitive experience for member institutions and to allow for comprehensive development of student-athletes through academic services and life skills programming. The LSC continues to build upon its proud history while developing into one of NCAA Division II’s most successful conferences. The league’s mission is to foster student participation and success among member institutions in Division II intercollegiate athletics as an integral part of each institution’s total educational program. The LSC pursues student-athlete development with highest regard to the principles of academic excellence, sportsmanship, ethical conduct, resourcefulness, community service, gender equity, and diversity. The LSC - founded on April 25, 1931 - has grown from a five-team conference of Texas-based schools to a 15-member league that spans three states (Texas, Oklahoma and New Mexico). The conference will expand in July 2010 with the addition of the University of Incarnate Word. The league continues to assist its member institutions in the maintenance of intercollegiate athletic programs that are compatible with the highest standards of education and competitive sports. Throughout the league’s 78-year history, various institutions have competed under the LSC banner. Today, only Texas A&M University-Commerce (then East Texas State) remains from the original group that was formed in 1931 when North Texas State, Southwest Texas State, Sam Houston State and Stephen F. Austin withdrew from the old Texas Intercollegiate Athletic Association.

The LSC conducts conference championships in 16 sports (eight men and eight women). Men’s championships include football, soccer, cross country, basketball, baseball, track and field, tennis and golf. Women’s titles are determined in volleyball, soccer, cross country, basketball, softball, track and field, tennis and golf. The conference office is located in Richardson, Texas, a northern suburb of Dallas. Stan Wagnon serves as Commissioner, with assistance from Jay Poerner (Compliance) and Melanie Robotham (Media Relations).

NORTH DIVISION:

The membership alignment has changed over the years, with current members having been added in each of the past five decades. Texas A&M-Kingsville (formerly Texas A&I) joined in 1954, followed by Angelo State in 1968 and Abilene Christian in 1973. Conference membership remained within the Texas borders until 1984 when Eastern New Mexico was admitted. Since then, the LSC has grown to include members from Arkansas and Oklahoma. Central Oklahoma (1987) and Cameron (1988, 1996) were the next additions in the LSC’s expansion phase, while Texas Woman’s (1989) and previous members West Texas A&M (1986, 1993) and Tarleton State (1968, 1994) joined the league soon after.

Northeastern State North Division Preseason Player of the Year Kacie Edwards, UCO North Division Preseason Pitcher of the Year Brittney Tanner, MSU

Midwestern State was admitted early in 1995, and the league grew again later that year with the acceptance of four more Oklahoma schools - East Central, Northeastern State, Southeastern Oklahoma and Southwestern Oklahoma - along with Harding and Ouachita Baptist from Arkansas. That brought the league membership to 17, but Harding and OBU departed the conference after the 1999-2000 academic year to bring about the LSC’s current look. Other past members of the LSC include Trinity, Houston, Lamar, Howard Payne, Sul Ross State and McMurry. Beginning with the 1997-98 academic year, the league was formed into two divisions - North and South - in football, volleyball, basketball, baseball and softball. Divisional champions are crowned according to results among division teams, with an overall league champion also being decided either by crossover games or a postseason championship tournament. For the third straight season, volleyball and baseball will play without divisions, utilizing a single conference standing to determine the regular-season champion and postseason seedings. While the LSC has maintained a long-standing tradition of competitive athletic programs for its members, many teams and individuals have gone on to distinguish themselves on the national stage. Entering 2009-10, LSC member institutions had collected more than 100 team national championships, including 71 in NCAA Division II.

Canyon & Amarillo, Texas The City of Canyon, with a population in excess of 13,000, was founded on Christmas Day 1887 by Lincoln Guy Conner, a cattle rancher who bought the land from the State of Texas for $3 per acre. He was too modest to name the town after himself, and Canyon City was named after the nearby Palo Duro Canyon. In 1910 the name was changed to Canyon.

NCAA Division II Pick a number of college sports fans and ask them what it means to be an NCAA Division I, II or III member. Most of them probably will say that Division I is “big,” Division II is “midsize” and Division III is “small.” There is some truth in the observations, but what makes Division II special has more to do with philosophy than with size. Here are features that make Division II athletics unique: Division II student-athletes generally come from the area in which their institution is located. They are effectively integrated with the overall student body. Many Division II coaches and administrators perform other jobs or functions at their institutions, including teaching. Most Division II student-athletes pay for school through a combination of scholarship money, grants, student loans and employment earnings. Teams are encouraged to play other teams from their region, thus reducing expense and missed class time. Division II brings its “A” game in the way it balances academics and athletics. Division II provides an excellent environment for studentathletes. It maintains a highly inclusive structure for studentathletes in NCAA governance matters: The annual summit between the Division II Student-Athlete Advisory Committee and the Division II Management Council serves as a model for athlete-administrator communication. Division II also benefits student-athletes by having the most opportunities per capita to compete in national championships.

The number of national championships in Division II is about the same as Divisions I and III. For 2006-07, Division II national championship competition will be offered in the following sports: National championship opportunities are comparable to those in Division I and III. Since 2003-04, National Championship competition will be offered in the following sports

In January 2004, the Division II membership approved two legislative changes that increased academic requirements for enrolled student-athletes. The first change mandated that Division II studentathletes be required to attain a 1.800 grade-point average after earning 24 credit hours, a 1.900 GPA after earning 48 hours and a 2.000 GPA after earning 72 hours and thereafter. The second change required that student-athletes must have earned at least six credit hours from the previous term. That new rule helped ensure that transfer studentathletes were legitimate students during the previous term and that enrolled student-athletes are progressing toward a degree semester-by-semester. Division II also has initiated a new measure of academic performance through creation of the Academic Success Rate. The new measure will provide graduation-rate data on all Division II student-athletes, including transfers and those not receiving athletically related financial aid. Two pilot studies using the new measure produced a graduation rate about 10 percent higher than what was measured through federal government methodology. Also, at its April 2006 meeting, the Division II Presidents Council (along with the Division I Board of Directors) approved a proposal that defines the role of the NCAA Initial-Eligibility Clearinghouse in validating the information on which the initial academic eligibility of a student-athlete is based. The action was taken after a series of newspaper articles revealed the existence of “diploma mills” that some prospective student-athletes were using to inappropriately enhance their academic records. Division II also has established a Degree-Completion Grant Program to assist student-athletes who are just short of completing their degree but whose athletics eligibility has expired.
