Athletic excellence and strength and conditioning go handin-hand at West Virginia University. Long regarded as one of the nation’s finest strength programs, the strength and conditioning coaches at WVU ensure that all student-athletes are kept at the peak of their total fitness capabilities. “Our strength program here is second to none. The entire staff cares tremendously about our baseball program and players,” said coach Greg Van Zant. “Combining our facilities with our excellent strength program, it doesn’t get any better, and that’s a huge reason why we’ve had players who have been All-Americans, allconference or getting drafted and playing professional baseball. We really emphasize player development, and a big part of their development is their strength.” To keep athletes in tip-top condition, West Virginia offers a variety of training areas and a vast array of strength programs. Equipped with excellent amenities and staffed by some of the finest strength coaches in the nation, athletes who come to West Virginia know that they are in good hands when it comes to fitness. Weight Lifting The lifting portion of the baseball routine is used to improve overall strength, power and explosion. This is accomplished through cycled periodization of Olympic lifts, conventional weight lifting techniques, plyometrics, agility and speed work and proper nutrition along with intense conditioning. Flexibility An increase in stride length, frequency and range of motion in joint to tendon relationships is directly correlated to speed, agility and injury prevention. Therefore it is important to make flexibility an area of emphasis. Good flexibility helps to improve speed and agility and reduces the risk of injury. Each workout is preceded with a dynamic flexibility routine with regular stretching and followed by a post-flexibility routine at the end of every workout.
STRENGTH AND CONDITIONING MISSION STATEMENT To provide athletes with the knowledge, character, extrinsic motivation, discipline and training to reach their potential both personally and athletically. Student-athletes are offered the opportunity to train in some of the nation’s best facilities and with one of the nation’s best staffs. Physical development and dominance have been and continue to be traits that are equated with WVU. The athlete’s self-confidence and unwavering dedication have driven him/her into the nation’s spotlight. This is made possible through the give-and-take relationships between the athletes and staff. The WVU strength and conditioning staff is committed to enabling athletes to achieve their dreams.
Conditioning Rigorous conditioning designed to elicit physiological changes in the body’s bioenergetics systems occur four times a week with the emphasis on anaerobic and baseball aerobic conditioning.

The Weight Rooms Housing almost 15 tons of total weight, the Mountaineer Weight Room is located in the Puskar Center at Mountaineer Field. The 22,000-square foot weight room features a three-lane track for conditioning and 40 times, one of only two collegiate weight rooms to have such a track. Seven power platforms and 40 pieces of Hammer Strength weight equipment make the facility the envy of all opponents. Weight rooms also exist in the WVU Coliseum and Shell Building facilities. These weight rooms are located near the baseball field and outdoor and indoor tracks, providing year-round facilities for additional conditoning.
MOUNTAINEER PROFILES
Core Training For baseball players, the abdominal and low back regions are the units that tie the upper and lower extremities’ power together. In order to have excellent maneuverability and transfer of power, an athlete must have superior balance and strength in this core region. Training of the core region occurs three times per week using balance balls, medicine balls and other baseball specific drills.

The 2010-11 academic year will be the 32nd in the history of The BIG EAST Conference as the unique consortium marches on competing at the highest level with integrity and sportsmanship. The BIG EAST has gone through membership changes since its birth, but the 2010-11 year will mark the conference’s sixth straight with the same 16-member group, the nation’s largest Division I-A conference. The BIG EAST Conference’s goals have always been the same. The outstanding performances of the student-athletes at BIG EAST schools are evidence of the league’s proud tradition of success. The league has always been able to boast that many of its best students are also its best athletes. The 2009-10 year was no different. The BIG EAST has continued to produce student-athletes who are at the forefront of athletic and academic achievement. In 2009-10, 22 BIG EAST players from 10 schools were chosen to their respective ESPN The Magazine Academic All-America Teams. Over 400 student-athletes have earned academic allAmerica honors. The BIG EAST became the nation’s largest Division I-A conference in 2005-06 when five new members began competing. The new schools were: University of Cincinnati, DePaul University, University of Louisville, Marquette University and the University of South Florida. BIG EAST institutions reside in nine of the nation’s top 35 largest media markets, including New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, Washington, D.C., Tampa, Pittsburgh, Hartford, Cincinnati and Milwaukee. With its newest members, BIG EAST markets contain almost one-fourth of all television households in the U.S. In November of 2010, TCU accepted an invitation for full membership into conference. The Horned Frogs will become the 17th conference member on July 1, 2012. Its athletic teams will begin competing in the BIG EAST in the 2012-13 academic year.
With an enrollment of 9,142 in Fort Worth, Texas, TCU competes in 20 sports, including baseball which played in the 2010 College World Series. The league has long been considered a leader in innovative concepts in promotion and publicity, particularly regarding television. Those efforts have resulted in unparalleled visibility for BIG EAST student athletes. The conference has enjoyed long-standing relationships with CBS, ESPN, Inc. and ABC. More than 575 BIG EAST student-athletes have earned all America recognition and dozens have won individual NCAA national championships. The BIG EAST has been well represented in U.S. or foreign national and Olympic teams. Several athletes earned gold medals. The BIG EAST has its headquarters in Providence, R.I., where the conference administers to more than 5,500 student-athletes. WVU at the BIG EAST Tournament Guided by 17-year coach Greg Van Zant, the West Virginia baseball team has enjoyed almost two decades of success at the BIG EAST Baseball Championship. After winning the 1996 conference title in just his second season, Van Zant guided the Mountaineers to three straight tournament berths (1997-99). The Mountaineers appeared in five tournaments throughout the last decade, including the last three straight. During the most recent run, WVU has compiled a 2-6 record, including a 13-6 victory over Notre Dame in 2008, the first time the championship was held at Bright House Field, in Clearwater, Fla. WVU looks for its fourth straight conference championship berth this season, a streak of championship appearances that would equal the string from Van Zant’s early years (1996-99). Television Exposure Seven regular-season dates and the final game of the 2011 BIG EAST Championship will be televised this season, including the national television slate starting on April 15 in Notre Dame, Ind., as West Virginia and Notre Dame begin their BIG EAST series with a 7 p.m. game on ESPNU. ESPNU will once again air the title game of the BIG EAST Championship live from Clearwater, Fla., May 29.

Caperton Indoor Facility Opened in August 1998, the Caperton Indoor Practice Facility is one of the best indoor practice buildings in the country. “The Caperton Indoor Facility is a big plus for all of our athletes at West Virginia,” coach Greg Van Zant says. “It’s versatile in its uses and eases all our minds when it comes to bad weather. “There have been times through the years when we just weren’t able to practice or do the things we needed to do because of bad weather. There were times when we had to come off the field or halt practice for a period of time because of the weather conditions, but that’s not the case now. The IPF takes care of all those worries. The grass is always green in our indoor practice facility.” The project was the first of its kind for a state university to employ the innovative “design-build” concept. Located adjacent to Milan Puskar Stadium at Mountaineer Field, the Caperton Indoor Practice Facility is equipped with a major league playing surface with the total length of the facility from wall to wall of 315 feet and it is 225 feet wide. The Mountaineers’ sparkling indoor facility exceeds 75,000 square feet of practice room and now features a FieldTurf playing surface, which was installed in the winter of 2006. With the artificial surface, the Caperton Indoor Facility is versatile in its uses. It also serves as a practice facility for WVU’s football and men’s and women’s soccer teams. Safety netting surrounding the entire playing field allows coaches the ability to divide the playing surface in half. Four state-of-theart major league style batting cages drop out of the ceiling with the push of a button. Each batting cage is 70 feet long, 15 feet wide and 35 feet high. The dimensions allow for pitchers to face hitters in live situations. Also, nine indoor pitching mounds are equipped in the facility and two full infields can be set up. Room for outfielders to make game-like throws is also available. In fact, there is enough room for a full round of infield/outfield during practice sessions. Locker rooms for male and female athletes are in the facility along with a fully equipped training room, restrooms, 4,500 square feet of storage and a facilities office. Skylights provide natural lighting in the building and it is equipped with camera platforms for filming. The modern structure features the flying WV logo on its exterior, while former football captain John Thornton, who played 10
seasons in the NFL, sponsored the painting of the large “West Virginia” script murals on the interior. Named in honor of former governor Gaston Caperton, the facility gives West Virginia’s student-athletes a safe and secure practice home away from the inclement weather. The Caperton Indoor Practice Facility gives West Virginia University yet another component in one of the finest baseball complexes in the nation. Hawley Field Hawley Field, home of the Mountaineer baseball team since 1971, is evolving into one of the top college baseball facilities in America. Improvements to the facility have become almost an obsession to coach Van Zant, who has invested a great deal of time and effort to the cause. In the spring of 2006, a 100 foot wide by 40 foot high batters eye was constructed behind the centerfield fence. This solid, dark green structure makes it easier for hitters to see the ball out of the pitchers’ hand. Plans are also in the works for new dugouts and a clubhouse behind the first base dugout. Major improvements were made to the playing surface at Hawley Field after the 2005 season making it one of the nicest places to play college baseball.

2010 REVIEW RECORD BOOK
Behind the fence is a modern scoreboard and message center constructed in 1998, which was accompanied by a $15,000 state-of-the-art sound system, giving Hawley Field a professional baseball environment. Inside the fence, bullpens were constructed, allowing room down the base lines for additional seating. It is his aim to construct two 500seat grandstand bleachers down both foul lines to increase the stadium’s capacity to 2,500. The funds for this project will come through the annual baseball marathon game, which raises thousands each year for the program, along with donations from baseball alumni and friends. To all of the former baseball players who return to campus, Hawley Field is barely recognizable. It has also become a source of great pride to all of those who spend their time edging the warning tracks, pulling out dead grass, trimming the infield or giving their hard-earned money to see it grow. Those same people hope to make Hawley Field one of the nation’s finest college baseball parks.
WEST VIRGINIA UNIVERSITY
A new state-of-the-art drainage system was installed in the outfield and foul territories. The infield received a completely new playing surface. The ballpark got a new warning track made of crushed red shale bordering the fences. According to Van Zant, these major-league quality improvements now make the playing surface one of the best in Division I. In the last few years, the Mountaineers expanded their outdoor batting cages and put down AstroPlay (a grass-like synthetic surface that is also on Mountaineer Field) to make it one of the finest outdoor cages in the nation. Also, 50 white pine trees were planted behind the outfield fence from the left field foul pole to the right field foul pole to enhance the beauty of the field and give better depth perception to the players. A five-foot wide Astroturf halo around the home plate area with “Mountaineers” written in gold with navy trim has also been added, signifying the home of West Virginia baseball. It’s fair to say the ballpark that stands there today isn’t the same one cleared off after the construction of the WVU Coliseum in the late 1960s. Many improvements and changes have happened to the ball yard since its first game in 1971, one expenditure being a modern outfield fence with signage that cost more than $60,000. In 2001, a state-of-the art lighting system that cost more than $260,000 was constructed with the help of baseball alumni and friends. Those two projects are among a series of improvements made to the field over the last two decades, beginning with an infield drainage system in 1981 and dugouts in 1985. Four years later a 1,500-seat grandstand and press box were constructed. Shortly afterward restrooms and a concession area were added. An Astro-turfed double hitting tunnel was erected down the right field line in 1991. The tunnel is now lighted, enabling Mountaineer hitters to work on their game anytime. It was also around that time that West Virginia installed an eight-foot fence adorned with advertising which has since been replaced with an improved version.

Representing West Virginia University, the city of Morgantown and the state of West Virginia in a charitable manner is important to the WVU baseball team. Besides training and studying everyday as part of their student-athlete duties, the Mountaineers are always ready and willing to give back to those that make Morgantown a kind-hearted and good-natured community. “It’s very important for our team to get out in the community,” said coach Greg Van Zant. “Our players and coaches enjoy community service projects and giving back to the Morgantown area and the state. Our guys are always eager to go out and help people that are less fortunate than they are.” One of the many traditions that the West Virginia baseball program enjoys is preparing, enhancing and improving the minds of elementary school children. A plethora of players have given their time, energy and effort toward reading to children at elementary schools as well as running fitness classes to show the importance of staying in shape. In early December, several players from this year’s team visited underprivileged kids from Mountainview Elementary School and took them on a shopping spree. The experience was a beacon of light for the children during the holiday season, an opportunity for each youngster to find something he or she liked as well as hang out with a Division I baseball player. The Mountaineers also have made several trips to the West Virginia Children’s Hospital, looking to provide some temporary relief to those who are sick. The annual occurrence always gives each Mountaineer a greater perspective on life, and in the process each player does what he can to put a smile on the faces of those who are in need of one. The West Virginia players and coaching staff also partake in seasonal baseball camps to give prospective Mountaineers an early look of what it takes to be a WVU baseball player. The emphasis of each camp is on player development, as coach Van Zant, his assistant coaches and respective players help each attendee hone their skills in an opportunity to someday play Division I baseball. Although the West Virginia baseball team works year-round to build as competitive of a program as possible, it is never a chore for the Mountaineers to give back to the community. Based on the success of their initiatives and the satisfaction that it gives to the players and coaches, WVU baseball will continue to engage in its philanthropy for years to come.

The WVU Department of Intercollegiate Athletics is committed to the promotion of the academic achievement of student-athletes as well as their athletic accomplishment and their personal and career development. In support of this position, West Virginia University offers a variety of services and programs to help student-athletes maximize their academic potential. Department staff members work with coaches, on-campus student service providers and faculty to help student-athletes meet the unique demands of the classroom, the sporting arena and the personalsocial challenges they face as developing adults. While many of the headlines center on the Mountaineers’ accomplishments on the playing field, West Virginia athletes have also made some noteworthy strides in the classroom. Some of those strides include having 11 student-athletes being named first team Academic All-Americans in seven of the last nine years and nearly 800 different student-athletes earning a 3.0 GPA during the 2008 and 2009 academic years. To help its student athletes achieve academic success, one of the nation’s finest facilities resides in the WVU Coliseum – The Coliseum Academic Performance Center.

“The Coliseum Academic Performance Center is a significant development for an academically oriented institution such as West Virginia to recognize the special needs required for a modern student-athlete’s success both as an athletic competitor on the field of play and in the classroom.” -- Garrett Ford, Associate Athletic Director for Student Services
ð ð ð ð
WVU’S ACADEMIC SUPPORT SERVICES PROVIDES Team educational counselors Tutoring services Priority registration for student-athletes Post-eligibility assistance
The WVU student services staff, headed by Associate Athletic Director for Student Services Garrett Ford and his assistants Sandy Cole-DeMent, Erica Wycherley, Paul Downey, Stephanie White, Mark Hanselman and Donnie Tucker, makes sure that every studentathlete has the best possible opportunity to obtain a college degree. This process begins as soon as a recruit signs a letter-of-intent to play for the Mountaineers. “We know everything about incoming freshmen academically before they arrive in the fall,” said Ford. “We know which students are ahead of others and which will require more assistance.” Besides keeping in touch with freshmen, incoming student-athletes are encouraged to attend orientation sessions offered for all West Virginia University students during the summer prior to their arrival on campus. This is where new students can learn more about the Morgantown campus and, most importantly, register for classes. During the second week of classes, freshmen are enrolled in mandatory study halls, monitored by Ford and his staff. Those who do well during the first semester are given the option of attending study hall, but if their GPA drops below a certain mark, they must return to the mandatory sessions. During the semester, department officials keep a careful record of each student-athlete’s academic progress. Class and study hall attendance are checked regularly, periodic grade reports are obtained from instructors, and parents, coaches and players are kept up-to-date on their academic progress. During priority registration, all student-athletes, from incoming freshmen to graduating seniors, get advice in scheduling the courses to keep them on track in their degree programs. These measures are succeeding in a noticeable way. Last year, 379 student-athletes earned a place on the Athletic Director’s Academic Honor Roll with at least a 3.0 grade-point average.
TUTORING SERVICE FACTS
ð Over 75 tutors provide student-athletes with assistance in their classes. Upperclassmen, graduate students and community members serve as ð tutors in their area of specialty. Tutoring services are provided for all student-athletes regardless of ð scholarship status.
MENTORING SERVICE FACTS Experienced educators from the local community serve as mentors for student-athletes who need additional guidance with adjusting to the academic rigors of the college environment. Mentors help incoming student-athletes improve accountability through time management, study skills and organizational skills related to their classes. In another program, former Mountaineer athletes are returning to school to complete work on their degrees, some after as many as 10 years past their time in Morgantown. But for those who don’t graduate with their class, there’s still hope. A continuing-eligibility program was created in 1989 to give those studentathletes who are close to graduating an opportunity to come back to school to complete their degrees. Since its creation, dozens of students have participated, with a success rate of better than 80 percent. More than 25 student-athletes from all sports participated in the post-eligibility program last year. In 1992, under the direction of associate Ford, WVU joined the growing list of schools that are a part of an NCAA-sponsored consortium. Similar to the post-eligibility program in providing former student-athletes a chance to continue work toward their degrees, the closely screened consortium requires participants to be more involved in community-related activities. The consortium students are often much older athletes, who left the University to pursue professional sports or business careers, but now wish to return to complete their degrees.
STUDENT-ATHLETE SERVICES
STUDENT-ATHLETE ADVISORY COMMITTEE The Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) provides a forum for the “voice of the student-athlete” on WVU’s campus. SAAC membership provides feedback to administration about how to improve WVU athletic programs. They disseminate information important to student-athletes to share with their teams. Two representatives from each varsity team at West Virginia University are either elected by their teammates or selected by the members of their coaching staff. Under the guidance of SAAC advisor Terri Howes, the SAAC meets regularly to discuss current issues and concerns of WVU’s studentathletes. SAAC leaders attend BIG EAST Conference SAAC meetings to exchange ideas with other student-athletes from BIG EAST schools regarding student-athletes’ collegiate experience.

SAAC’S PURPOSE
The purpose of West Virginia University SAAC is: 1. To generate a student-athlete voice within WVU, the Big East and NCAA structure. 2. Solicit student-athlete response to proposed WVU, Big East and NCAA legislation.
RECORD BOOK
APR The West Virginia University men’s basketball team, women’s cross country team and women’s soccer team received public recognition in the spring of 2010 by the NCAA for their latest multiyear Academic Progress Rate (APR) scores. These teams posted multiyear APRs in the top 10 percent of all squads their respective sports. Each year, the NCAA honors selected Division I sports teams by publicly recognizing their latest multiyear APR. The APR provides a real-time look at a team’s academic success each semester by tracking the academic progress of each student-athlete on scholarship. The APR accounts for eligibility, retention and graduation and provides a measure of each team’s academic performance.
WHAT IS SAAC? The West Virginia University Student Athlete Advisory Committee is comprised of student-athletes assembled to provide insight on the student-athlete experience. The SAAC also offers input on the rules, regulations and policies that affect student-athletes’ lives on NCAA member institution campuses.
3. Recommend potential WVU, Big East and NCAA legislation. 4. Review, react and comment to the governance structure on legislation, activities and subjects of interest. 5. Actively participate in the administrative process of athletics programs and the NCAA. 6. Promote a positive student-athlete image.
WEST VIRGINIA UNIVERSITY
GRADUATION RATES West Virginia University’s graduation rate for student-athletes has been impressive, to say the least, over the past several years. The ratio of student-athletes graduating to the general student body has increased almost every year. The graduation rate for student-athletes is based upon the number of students who entered the University receiving athletic scholarship aid in a given academic year, and their progress over six years. The most recent figures are based upon the progress of student-athletes who entered WVU during 2002-03.
MOUNTAINEER BASEBALL
NCAA CERTIFICATION West Virginia University received unconditional recertification in April 2010 from the NCAA Division I Committee on Athletics Certification, recognizing that the University’s athletic program is in “substantial conformity with operating principles” adopted by Division I schools. The purpose of athletics certification is to ensure integrity in the institution’s athletics program and to assist institutions in improving their athletics departments, the NCAA said. WVU was one of the first schools to volunteer for the NCAA’s pilot certification program in 1991, and was one of five schools originally certified. WVU’s program was recertified by the NCAA in 1996 and then again in 2001. The most recent round of recertification began in 2008 with a self-study of governance and commitment to rules compliance, academic integrity, as well as gender and diversity and student-athlete well-being. The Division I Committee on Athletics Certification preliminarily reviews an institution’s certification materials and provides a list of issues identified during the evaluation. The university then hosts a visit by peer reviewers who file a report regarding the institution’s resolution of those issues before a final certification decision is rendered. An institution’s failure to satisfactorily respond to the committee may negatively affect certification status. All 335 active Division I members participate in the certification process.

COMMITMENT TO SERVICE The purpose of this component is to engage interested student-athletes in service to his or her campus and surrounding communities. Activities for student-athletes within this component include peer education, guest speaking at campus and community events and mentoring local children. The many challenges that today’s college student-athletes face, both on and off the playing field, are unmatched in the history of higher education. Unfortunately, many students are not well prepared to face these challenges or encounter life issues that undermine health and success in college. To prepare studentathletes for the demands of college life and beyond, the NCAA developed the CHAMPS (Challenging Athletes Minds for Personal Success)/Life Skills program. In the spring of 1995, the West Virginia University Department of Intercollegiate Athletics initiated its own CHAMPS/Life Skills program. WVU was one of only 170 schools selected by the NCAA to participate in their national pilot program. Five programming “commitment” areas viewed as critical to personal growth are part of WVU’s model. They are: 1. Academic excellence 2. Personal development 3. Career development 4. Athletic excellence 5. Community serviceCOMMITMENT TO ACADEMIC
COMMITMENT TO CAREER DEVELOPMENT The purpose of this area is to encourage student-athletes to develop and pursue career and life goals in a timely manner. The CHAMPS/Life Skills program fulfills this purpose by offering career development presentations, sport career retirement programs, transitions from college class in the spring semester (SEP 493), and by working in conjunction with the WVU Carruth Center and the WVU Career Services Center on identifying an individual’s interests, career goals, crafting resumes and facilitating job search process.

GREG VAN ZANT Head Coach 17th Season
Now in his 17th season as head coach at West Virginia University, state native Greg Van Zant has elevated the WVU baseball program into the national spotlight. The former Mountaineer player from Williamson,W.Va., now ranks second in WVU baseball history with 477 wins. In his time as head coach at West Virginia, Van Zant has accomplished plenty by winning BIG EAST championships (regular season and tournament), earning an NCAA tournament appearance and churning out 49 players who have been drafted or signed contracts with Major League Baseball organizations, including 26 pitchers. Van Zant has produced six All-Americans, the BIG EAST Pitcher of the Year, the BIG EAST Player of the Year, two BIG EAST Rookies of the Year, 52 all-conference players, a first round draft pick, two major league players and an Olympian. He also has been named BIG EAST Coach of the Year twice as well as the American Baseball Coaches Association East Region Coach of the Year. During his first 16 seasons, Van Zant has averaged nearly 30 wins per year. The 2010 season marked another thrilling campaign for WVU, featuring Van Zant’s third consecutive appearance to the BIG EAST Championship as the Mountaineers punched their bid as the league’s eighth seed. Facing plenty of questions prior to the season, along with incorporating several fresh faces into the lineup, Van Zant’s youthful unit managed to finish with a .305 batting average and go 27-30 against a grueling schedule and battling through injuries. Following the 2010 season, WVU baseball great Jedd Gyorko added to Van Zant’s résumé when he was chosen 59th overall by the San Diego Padres in the second round of the Major League Baseball first-year player draft. Gyorko became the third-highest pick in the modern baseball draft era at WVU. In 2009, Van Zant’s Mountaineers amassed 37 wins, tying the 1998 team for the most victories since joining the BIG EAST. Picked to finish seventh in the league’s preseason coaches’ poll, Van Zant led one of country’s best offensive clubs to a third-place finish in the regular season, helping a school-record nine players earn all-BIG EAST accolades. The veteran coach propelled his group to 17 conference wins, WVU’s most since 2003, while directing the

In 2007, Van Zant led WVU to a 29-22 record. Senior left fielder Justin Jenkins earned third team All-America honors, while producing a 38-game hitting streak, tied for the 11th-longest in the history of college baseball. Jenkins later signed as a pre-draft free agent with the Cleveland Indians. Four other Mountaineers were selected in the pro draft in 2007. Van Zant guided the Mountaineers to a 36-22 record in 2006 and the program’s sixth BIG EAST Tournament appearance. WVU won its first 17 home games and owned the nation’s longest winning streak at the time. With the final three home wins at the end of the 2005 season, the 20-game home winning streak set a school record. The 25-4 season-opening mark was the best start to a campaign in 40 years, garnering the school’s first national ranking since 1982. The 2006 squad put a strong offense on display, as it finished the season with a .339 batting average, good enough for second in all of Division I. The 2005 season was a special year for the skipper as he grabbed win No. 300 in a 15-1 victory over Savannah State on April 6. The year also marked the first time in school history that three former Mountaineers were playing Major League Baseball at the same time. Steve Kline, Scott Seabol and current Major Leaguer Dustin Nippert of the Texas Rangers were all coached by Van Zant. In 2003, Van Zant orchestrated one of the most exciting seasons in team history, as a Mountaineer team slated to finish near the bottom of the conference battled its way to a 36-19 overall record and an 18-6 conference mark. For his efforts, Van Zant was named BIG EAST Coach of the Year for the second time in his career. WVU produced a school-record six draft picks in the 2001 season, as Van Zant reached 200 wins faster than any other coach in school history. In 1998, Van Zant’s talented squad produced a 37-17-1 record and advanced to the final four of the BIG EAST Tournament. Four players were drafted from that team, including 19th-round pick Brad

Mountaineers to a No. 26 ranking in the Collegiate Baseball poll and a No. 36 spot in the ESPN/USA Today Top 25 Coaches’ Poll during the week of April 13, 2009. Behind three .400-plus hitters in Dan DiBartolomeo, Gyorko and Vince Belnome, the Mountaineers set single-season school records for team batting average (.360), RBIs (491), doubles (161), extra base hits (242) and runs scored (525). Under the tutelage of Van Zant, pitchers Jarryd Summers and Billy Gross formed one of the best 1-2 starting combinations in the BIG EAST, combining for a 16-7 record with a 3.63 ERA and 157 strikeouts. 2009 also saw WVU win the national statistical championship for most doubles per game. Van Zant also witnessed the progression of catcher Tobias Streich, who became WVU’s then-highest draft pick in 12 seasons after being selected by the Minnesota Twins in the fifth round of the MLB first-year player draft. Belnome also landed a spot with the San Diego Padres in the 28th round, while Gross (Baltimore Orioles), Austin Markel (Florida Marlins) and Joe Agreste (San Diego Padres) all signed free-agent deals. In 2008, Van Zant guided one of the nation’s most prolific offenses to a 35-21 mark, making WVU one of the select few Division I programs to post 100 wins in a three-year span (2006-08). Led by All-Americans Tyler Kuhn and Gyorko, the Mountaineers finished fifth in the country with a .341 batting average, 13th in slugging percentage (.523) and 15th in total runs (477). WVU also had three other all-BIG EAST players in Agreste, Belnome and Justin Parks who added to the high-powered WVU offense, as well as BIG EAST all-Tournament Team member Markel. Adding to Van Zant’s résumé was the selection of former WVU pitcher Jeremy Cummings to the United States Olympic Baseball team in the 2008 Summer Games in Beijing, China. Van Zant oversaw the four-year progression of Cummings from 1996-99, as the Mountaineer pitching alum helped the United States earn a bronze medal.

Elwood. The Mountaineers ranked among the NCAA’s best in hitting (second) with a .358 team batting mark, pitching (22nd) with a 4.49 ERA and scoring (28th) at 9.02 runs per game. Outfielder and former volunteer assistant Joe McNamee became the coach’s second AllAmerica player in two seasons. A year earlier in 1997, Van Zant led West Virginia to its second BIG EAST American Division title in as many years. Owning a 36-19 overall mark, West Virginia registered the third-most wins in school history at the time. His top pitcher, Chris Enochs, became the school’s first All-America selection since 1964 and was selected in the first round (11th overall selection) of the Major League Draft by the Oakland Athletics. For Van Zant’s efforts, he was honored as the 1997 BIG EAST Coach of the Year. West Virginia’s 1996 squad posted a 33-25 record, won the BIG EAST regular and postseason championships, and earned a thirdplace finish at the 1996 Atlantic Regional at Clemson, S.C. His club defeated nationally ranked Tennessee and Georgia Southern in the NCAA Tournament, securing the school’s first wins against nationally ranked teams since 1982. West Virginia was one of just three schools from the nation’s 10 major baseball conferences to win the regular and postseason titles that season, and its 2-0 start in the NCAA Tournament was the best in school history. By virtue of his club’s 1996 BIG EAST Tournament championship, the coach has now participated in the NCAA Tournament as a player (1982), an assistant (1990 and 1994) and a head coach. The Mountaineers finished the 1996 campaign ranked No. 36 by USA Today/Baseball Weekly, the highest West Virginia has ever finished in that poll. He was named the ABCA/East Region Coach of the Year, one of eight regional coaches honored nationwide. He took over the Mountaineer program in December of 1994, a month after the death of longtime mentor Dale Ramsburg. Like Ramsburg, Van Zant has been active among the coaching fraternity. The hard-working coach is a 27-year member of the American Baseball Coaches Association, and has served two terms as president of the
BIG EAST Baseball Coaches Association. In 2005, Van Zant was chosen as a member of the NCAA Division I Baseball East Region Advisory Committee and served in that capacity through the 2007 season. Van Zant began his association with college baseball as a four-year starting third baseman at WVU from 1980-83, helping the Mountaineers to the NCAA regional playoffs in 1982. He is probably best remembered for a double play that he started in the ninth inning to give WVU a 7-5 victory over Rutgers in the Eastern Eight Championship game. That team finished No. 16 in the nation by Collegiate Baseball and came within two games of advancing to the College World Series. After graduation, he worked for Ford Motor Company from 1985-87 before accepting a coaching position at Georgia Southern under legendary coach Jack Stallings. During his three years at Georgia Southern, he was responsible for working with the infielders as well as marketing and promoting the baseball program. In his final season at Georgia Southern in 1990, Van Zant was part of an Eagle team that won 50 games and advanced to the College World Series. Among the prominent players at Georgia Southern during Van Zant’s stay were future Major League players like pitcher Joey Hamilton, catcher Todd Greene and shortstop Chris Petersen. Van Zant spent the summer of 1990 coaching in the Cape Cod League with the Falmouth Commodores, where he helped instruct St. Louis Cardinals first-round pick Alan Watson. Later that summer, Van Zant returned to his alma mater as an assistant coach. Serving as Ramsburg’s top assistant and recruiting coordinator, Van Zant helped recruit WVU players that produced an NCAA regional berth in 1994. He was also a part of several improvements to the Mountaineer baseball program, including re-establishing the alumni game played every fall since 1991 and the construction of an eight-foot outfield fence with advertising and 30-foot foul poles. As head coach, the improvements continued. The most notable are the installation of lights and initiating the Mountaineer Baseball Marathon Game, which has raised thousands of dollars toward improving the baseball program. Recently, Van Zant helped raise funds for a new outfield drainage system, a state-of-the-art infield, a new warning track and a major league-style batter’s eye just beyond the center field wall. Van Zant has also maintained the respectable rapport with professional scouts established under Ramsburg; West Virginia has had 70 players selected in the Major League draft since it was first initiated in 1965 (in just 16 seasons, Van Zant has coached over half of those drafted at West Virginia). Four of those players have gone on to play in the big leagues. Van Zant has been chosen four times to participate as a clinician at the YES (Youth Education through Sports) Clinic in Omaha, Neb., at the College World Series. He has worked at the Omaha Clinic in 1999, 2004, 2005 and 2007, and has spoken at numerous baseball coaching clinics and camps nationwide. Holding multiple degrees stemming from his time as a graduate and undergraduate student, Van Zant has not disappointed in stressing the significance of the ever-important realm of academics. He was instrumental in guiding former players Josh Williamson (1997) and Lee Fritz (2005) toward CoSIDA Academic All-America honors, and has also coached three academic all-district performers during his reign in Morgantown. A 1984 WVU graduate in industrial engineering, Van Zant earned master’s degrees in sport management in 1988 and business administration in 1989 from Georgia Southern. The southern West Virginia native received the Rawlings Baseball post-graduate scholarship in 1991 and 1992. Nine years ago, Van Zant was widely recognized by his hometown when he was inducted into the Williamson High School Hall of Fame. Van Zant resides in Morgantown with his wife, the former Leslie Jones of Farmington, W.Va., and their daughter, Reese, 1.

The 2008 season saw two players bat better than .400, as Tyler Kuhn (.424) and Jedd Gyorko (.409) powered their way to nationally acclaimed seasons while leading one of the greatest batting lineups in school history. The Mountaineers were 24th nationally in hitting during their 2007 campaign. WVU finished with a 29-22 mark while Sherald played a key role in paving the way for power-hitter Justin Jenkins to become a Collegiate Baseball third team All-American as well as an all-BIG EAST second team performer. Sherald came from Lamar University, where he served as an assistant coach for three seasons. At Lamar, Sherald worked primarily with the catchers and pitchers. He guided the Lamar pitching staff to three consecutive Top 25 rankings in ERA, including sixth-best in the nation in 2004. He also coordinated the in-season and off-season strength and conditioning programs for Lamar baseball. The Cardinals made three consecutive trips to the NCAA Regionals under Sherald’s watch. During that time, 14 Cardinals signed professional baseball contracts, 18 players earned all-conference recognition, and Sherald coached one major leaguer. During his three-year tenure, Lamar won two Southland Conference championships and two tournament titles. The Cardinals posted 36-, 40- and 41-win seasons while being nationally ranked in each of Sherald’s three seasons. The 2003 Lamar team finished the season ranked No. 22 in the nation. Sherald began his playing career at Frederick Community College (Md.), where he lettered from 1998-99. As a catcher he earned all-conference and all-tournament honors, helped FCC advance to the Division II World Series and finish the season ranked fourth nationally. A two-year letterman for Lamar from 2000-01, Sherald earned academic allSouthland Conference honors at catcher while earning two degrees, a bachelor’s and master’s degree in kinesiology. He completed his thesis and was named graduate student of the year. The Emmitsburg, Md., native received his Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) certification in 2002.

Jake Weghorst begins his first season as an assistant coach for the West Virginia University baseball team. The Lorena, Texas, native served as the volunteer coach with the Mountaineers last year. During that tenure, Weghorst’s primary duties included serving as the bullpen coach on game days while assisting the pitchers and outfielders. WVU finished the season at 27-30 and advanced to the 2010 BIG EAST Tournament. Weghorst spent the 2009 season as a volunteer assistant and the pitching coach for Tennessee-Martin of the Ohio Valley Conference. The Skyhawks’ 21 victories that season were then a program-best mark and their most since becoming a Division I program. Additionally, Weghorst has been active in the collegiate summer baseball leagues. He has spent the last two summers as an assistant coach for the Front Royal Cardinals in the Valley Baseball League. The squad went 27-25 this past summer and fell to Luray on Aug. 12 in the Lineweaver Cup Series for the league title. The Cardinals also concluded the season with the league’s second-best team ERA (3.30). In his first summer with the team, Front Royal earned the league’s 2009 regular season crown with a 30-17 record and finished on top of the league’s team ERA (3.40) standings. Prior to his time with the Cardinals, Weghorst spent the 2007 summer with the Duncanville Deputies of the Texas Collegiate League and served as the pitching coach. Weghorst enjoyed a remarkable two-year career as a reliever for Baylor University, lettering both years. His senior season in 2006 was highlighted by a 27-inning scoreless streak that covered 17 appearances, as he set a Big 12 Conference record for the lowest ERA (0.00) in league play. He finished his standout junior campaign with a teambest 1.73 ERA in 24 appearances, and helped lead Baylor to NCAA Regional appearances in both seasons with the Bears. Prior to his playing career at the Division I level, Weghorst was a first team all-conference pitcher and a member of the Texas-New Mexico Junior College All-Star team at Angelina College. His pitching prowess guided the school to the Region 14 East Zone Conference crown in his sophomore season. Weghorst earned his bachelor’s degree in education from Baylor in December 2007, specializing in health, human performance and recreation programs.

Despite fielding a widely untested and youthful pitching staff, WVU baseball coach Greg Van Zant believes his 2011 team possesses the know-how and will to win to overcome its lack of experience and play its way into a fourth straight BIG EAST tournament. “Every team in the country starts the season wanting to win the national championship,” Van Zant says. “You never want to limit yourself, so I try not to put a lot of tangible goals on the team. My goal for this group is that they prepare the best they can on a daily basis, whether it be for a practice or for a game, and then they give the coaching staff all that they have. “We preach about that all of the time – maximum preparation and maximum effort.” Working with a roster which features a combined 13 redshirt and true freshmen, Van Zant is busy preaching fundamentals and mechanics to his young Mountaineers. “Instead of focusing on production, we focus on mechanics,” he says. “Focusing on mechanics and things you can control will lead to good performances, which also will lead to good numbers.” Therefore, a combination of preparation, accountability and proper technique is the recipe Van Zant hopes will help the Mountaineers, coming off a 27-30 campaign which saw the team finish eighth in the BIG EAST Conference with an appearance in the league’s tournament, overcome their inexperience and make a name for themselves. “This team is already giving great effort and showing excellent enthusiasm,” he explains. “I’m confident the guys that we have want to do well. I think they’re going to have a lot of fun this year if they continue to work hard and maintain good attitudes. We have talent. They just have to work at it and do the best they can.” PITCHING Van Zant does not mince words when talking about his underdeveloped 2011 pitching staff. “The overall view of our pitching staff is that we are untested and very young,” he says of a group which pitched in just over one-third of the Mountaineers’ total innings last season. “This staff will just be a matter of who throws strikes. It’s very inexperienced.” The Mountaineers look to replace 2010 starters Jarryd Summers and Eric Hinkle, as well as reliable reliever Andy Altemus and closer Chris Enourato. Altemus and Enourato each finished with six wins, with Altemus setting the single-season school record with 29 appearances, and Enourato registering a team-best 67 strikeouts. Tops among the returnees is senior right-hander Andy Berry. Boasting a 4-3 record from a 2010 season which saw him make 13 starts, the second-most for WVU, Berry accounted for a 6.11 ERA with 57 strikeouts. “Andy pitched well for us last year,” Van Zant says. “He was fairly consistent over the course of the season. He just has to get the ball down and change speeds. He will have to start for us – he’s earned that. He’s going to have to go out there and get as deep into the game as he can.” Behind Berry is a pair of underclassmen left-handers in Jonathan Jones and Michael Twigg. Jones, a junior, started six games last season and finished with a 2-1 record and a 6.62 ERA, while Twigg, a sophomore, enjoyed a strong rookie season which saw him work 44.2 innings, earn a 3-1 record and the team’s fourth-best ERA of 5.44. Twigg also finished with 34 strikeouts. “We are going to have to get a lot of innings out of Berry, Jones and Twigg,” Van Zant says. “They are our most experienced returners, and we will depend on their consistency.” Van Zant says senior right-hander Marcus Broadwater also could factor into the lineup. Despite making just five appearances one season ago, a change with his technique may increase his playing time this year. “We will need him this year,” says Van Zant. “We dropped him down to the side, and he’s throwing side-arm now. Hopefully, we’ll get an inning or two out of him in a lot of games.”
The biggest hole Van Zant must fill this year is the one left by Enourato, the Mountaineers’ current student assistant. A 2009 all-BIG EAST third team selection, he recorded more strikeouts (179) than innings pitched (178.1), and had a 3.5/1 strikeout-to-walk ratio. A four-year letterwinner, he signed a free-agent deal with the Toronto Blue Jays following the 2010 season. “We haven’t identified anyone on this staff yet who is going to take over Chris’ role and close out our games,” explains Van Zant. “It might be closing by committee instead of closing with Enourato. It’s a big hole.” While Broadwater is an option, junior right-hander Josh McCauley has emerged as the early-season candidate behind a good breaking ball. A transfer from Frederick Community College, he helped the team to a 53-7 record and the 2010 Maryland JUCO Championship. He went 6-2 as a sophomore and registered 82 strikeouts in 90.3 innings pitched. Also returning this season are seniors Jonathan Hash and Matt Morrone, sophomore Jared Hill and redshirt freshmen Zach Bargeron and Marshall Thompson. Newcomers looking to make an impact and add depth this season are freshmen Josh Harlow, Harrison Musgrave, Ryan Tezak and Corey Walter. “Musgrave, Harlow and Tezak all threw the ball well in the fall and could pitch for us right now,” Van Zant says. CATCHING What experience Van Zant’s pitching staff lacks, the group will not have to worry about who will be receiving its tosses, for the Mountaineers have three quality catchers who provide needed insurance behind the plate. “We have three excellent college catchers, and I have complete confidence in this group,” Van Zant says. Senior Kevin Griffin is a near-lock to earn the season’s starting nod. A Martinsburg, W.Va., native, he shared the starting role last season before assuming the position full time for the final 29 games. A gritty player, he threw out 19 of 59 runners attempting to steal (32.2 percent), while also batting .267 with 10 doubles, five home runs, 33 RBIs and 25 runs scored. Kevin Griffin

RECORD BOOK
INFIELD Thanks to the quality play and ambition of senior Grant Buckner, Van Zant is confident in his infield, despite the loss of All-American shortstop Jedd Gyorko. Buckner, a redshirt senior out of Elkview, W.Va., saw time at third base in 2010, but outperformed expectations in the fall and will assume the shortstop duties. A preseason all-BIG EAST selection, Buckner registered a .363 batting average last season, tops among all returnees, and recorded 50 RBIs and eight home runs. “That position was the one I was most worried about going into the fall season, but Grant really stepped up, and it is now the most solidified spot in the infield,” says Van Zant. “I have a lot of confidence that he can do a really solid job.” Redshirt junior Dan DiBartolomeo, out last year with a medical redshirt after sustaining a season-ending shoulder injury, looks to return to the diamond this year and hold down third base. He set WVU’s single-season batting average (.439) in 2009, and also accounted for eight home runs and 59 RBIs. Sophomore Brady Wilson, one of the fastest Mountaineers on the field, will play at second, while utility infielder Colin Durborow could see action at second, third and shortstop. Durborow accounted for 28 RBIs last year with a .266 batting average, while Wilson was successful on 60 percent of his stolen base attempts. Freshman Isac Frankin also is expected to see the field, either at second or third base, or shortstop. First base remains up for grabs, with McDavid and freshman Ryan McBroom at the top of the pack. McDavid saw action last season at first base and also hit .290 with five home runs and 53 RBIs, while McBroom, a left-handed thrower and right-handed hitter, impressed the coaching staff in the fall and could impact the lineup this year. Additional options include sophomore Chris Rasky and redshirt freshman TJ Kuban. OUTFIELD Speed and arm strength are the keys to Van Zant’s outfield, and redshirt senior Mark Dvoroznak and sophomore Matt Frazer are vital to this unit’s success. Dvoroznak, a Westlake, Ohio, native, possess speed like few others in the Mountaineers’ clubhouse and will play centerfield. He went 10-for-10 in stolen bases last season and batted .255 with two home runs, 19 RBIs and 39 runs scored. Frazer will join Dvoroznak and holds down left field. Returning from a freshman campaign which saw him hit .305 with 32 hits and 12 RBIs, Frazer began his rookie season on a 10-game hitting streak and had nine multiple-hit games.

“He is very mature and a smart leader,” Van Zant says of his senior. Sophomore Matt Malloy earned valuable starting time last season and will serve as Griffin’s backup. He also is a threat with the bat and is expected to see time as the designated hitter. Senior Justin McDavid also is an option at catcher.

“Those two ACC games (against Wake Forest and Maryland) are really big for us,” says Van Zant. “It’s always a plus to play good teams from respected conferences.” “Every team in the conference wants to win the BIG EAST Championship, and to get to the tournament, you have to win enough games,” says Van Zant. “The conference is good this year, probably the strongest it’s ever been. It’s only going to continue to get better. It’s a lot of fun and a big challenge.” WVU opens its BIG EAST slate with a trip to USF on March 25-27. The Bulls eliminated the Mountaineers from the conference tournament with a 10-5 decision on May 27, 2010. WVU also will travel to Louisville on April 1-3; the Cardinals are the only team of the conference’s three NCAA tournament participants the Mountaineers will face this year. Additionally, the first of WVU’s three games at Notre Dame on April 15-17 will be broadcast on ESPNU at 7 p.m. “We have never been on national TV like this before for a regular season game,” says Van Zant. “This is a big deal. Games like this offer the entire nation a window to watch our team play and open our program up to so many more fans.” WVU’s BIG EAST schedule includes four home series against Georgetown, Seton Hall, Cincinnati and Rutgers. The Mountaineers also travel to Villanova and Pitt.
2011 QUICK FACTS Multiple faces could see time in right field this season. McDavid, Wilson and Rasky are all options, as is freshman Tyler Steele-Worsham. “Frazer is a big presence in the middle of the lineup, and he’ll be an opening day starter,” Van Zant says. “Bottom line is we have to get offense out of our corner outfielders. Whoever hits is who we’ll go with.” SCHEDULE The Mountaineers will tackle a 57-game slate that features 26 teams, including three 2010 NCAA tournament participants. “This schedule is a good mix and hopefully it will prepare us for the BIG EAST Conference,” says Van Zant. “We have three weekend trips at the beginning that will provide us with 11 quality games.” WVU again opens the season at the BIG EAST/Big Ten Baseball Challenge, hosted by the St. Petersburg/Clearwater Sports Commission. The Mountaineers open against Iowa, the 2010 Big Ten tournament runner-up, on Feb. 18, followed by games against Penn State on Feb. 19 and Illinois on Feb. 20. From there, WVU will compete at the Hughes Brothers Challenge in Wilmington, N.C., Feb. 25-27, and face Marist, Miami (Ohio) and UNC-Wilmington. The Mountaineers will close out the weekend with a Feb. 28 trip to Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) foe Wake Forest. The squad closes out its early-season road trip in Elon, N.C., on March 4-6, with two games each against the host Phoenix, an NCAA regional qualifier the last three years, and Wright State. The Mountaineers open their home season at Hawley Field on March 8-9 with a two-game stand against Bryant, before playing host to 2010 NCAA regional participant, Rider, on March 11-13. Also highlighting the Mountaineers’ non-conference slate is a March 29 meeting with Morehead State at the annual Mountaineer Diamond Classic, in Charleston, W.Va., and an April 5 meeting with Maryland.

BIG EAST Bestows Preseason Honor on Buckner Redshirt-senior shortstop Grant Buckner was named to the 2011 preseason all-BIG EAST team. The Elkview, W.Va., native is coming off a junior campaign which saw him earn a .363 batting average, the team’s second-best mark behind All-American Jedd Gyorko, and hit eight home runs and record 50 RBIs. Buckner is the fourth Mountaineer to earn preseason conference honors in two years, as Gyorko, Dan DiBartolomeo and Jarryd Summers were all recognized in 2010.
Swinging for a Stellar Senior Season Ten true and fifth-year seniors are set to embark on their final season with the Mountaineers. Over the last four seasons, this group has appeared in three BIG EAST tournaments and helped the Mountaineers to a combined 12891 record. The 2011 WVU seniors are: Andy Berry, Marcus Broadwater, Jonathan Hash, Matt Morrone, Kevin Griffin, Justin McDavid, Grant Buckner, Colin Durborow, Jeremy Gum and Mark Dvoroznak.

Mountaineer Diamond Classic The Mountaineers will participate in their third straight Mountaineer Diamond Classic on Tuesday, March 29, against Morehead State, at Appalachian Power Park, at 6 p.m. This year’s classic meeting will be the second between WVU and MSU; the Eagles tallied a 4-3 win over the Mountaineers in 1999. WVU scored a 13-11 victory over Eastern Kentucky last year in front of 1,289 fans. The classic was resurrected in 2009 after a nineyear hiatus, and the Mountaineers defeated Southeastern Conference foe Kentucky, 10-7, in front of 2,452 fans. WVU is 5-2 all-time at the Mountaineer Diamond Classic. Its seven-game history is as follows:

SEASON REVIEW MOUNTAINEER BASEBALL COACHING STAFF MOUNTAINEER PROFILES 2011 SEASON
Growing up, every aspiring baseball player dreams of being the hero in a pressurized situation. The thrill of winning a game for your team, whether it is a walk-off single, home run or grand slam, is seen as one of the monumental achievements in America’s pastime. The 2010 Mountaineer baseball team was able to experience such a collective thrill, yet it was magnified exponentially by the heroics of junior catcher Kevin Griffin. West Virginia entered its 55th and final regular season game needing a victory over Villanova, and also needing help from Louisville against Notre Dame in order to clinch the BIG EAST’s eighth and final spot in the postseason tournament. In a tightly contested affair in Morgantown against the Wildcats, the Mountaineer offense was stymied by superb Villanova pitching through eight innings. Trailing 2-0 with two outs and two runners on base in the ninth inning, Griffin stepped to the plate looking to rise up. An in-state native of Martinsburg, Griffin wasted no time hitting one of the biggest shots in Mountaineer baseball history. On the first pitch, the junior took a fastball offering from reliever Mike Francisco and drilled a walk-off three run blast well over the left field wall. As the Mountaineers rejoiced like never before, they would soon find out that Louisville took care of business against postseason contender Notre Dame, putting WVU in the BIG EAST Tournament as the No. 8 seed. Such a game-changing play was a microcosm of the 2010 WVU baseball squad – no matter what the situation was, WVU would fight, scratch and claw until the final out. On May 1, the Mountaineers ended a three-game road trip by getting swept at Cincinnati, putting them last in the conference with a 3-15 mark. However, coach Greg Van Zant performed one of his best coaching jobs ever by telling his team to stay the course. WVU finished 9-2 over the final 11 regular season games, including 7-2 in conference play. It started its captivating run with a thunderous three-game sweep of the Fighting Irish, followed by a nailbiting 6-5 win over NCAA Tournament participant Bethune-Cookman. WVU was then dealt a gut-

wrenching 7-5 extra-inning loss in a Friday night affair at Georgetown, but bounced back to win the final two contests. After defeating Towson by an 8-4 score on May 18, everything came down to Villanova. There were numerous postseason scenarios, but Van Zant was adamant on keeping his team focused and letting them know that it could only control its own performances, rather than banking on outside fortunes from other teams. WVU was dealt an initial blow in its first game against the Wildcats, falling 5-4 after rallying from four runs down with two outs in the ninth inning. The Mountaineers once again fought back to win their next contest, 9-7, before Griffin’s big blast put WVU in the postseason. Entering the 2010 season, WVU, which finished 27-30 overall and 10-17 in the conference, had plenty of questions about who was going to fill the holes left by the 2009 team’s six key departures. Making matters worse, returning third baseman Dan DiBartolomeo was eventually lost for the season following a shoulder injury before WVU’s third game, and promising freshman T.J. Kuban also was lost to a season-ending elbow injury early in the year. Despite this adversity, the Mountaineers reached what seemed to be the unachievable by earning a postseason spot. During their incredible up-and-down journey, the Mountaineers were paced by the veteran leadership of four quality players – junior shortstop Jedd Gyorko, redshirt junior third baseman Grant Buckner and senior relievers Andy Altemus and Chris Enourato. Gyorko had another all-world campaign. The Morgantown native tied a single-season school record with 19 home runs, and led WVU in batting average (.381), RBIs (57), total bases (177), slugging percentage (.750) base hits (90) and doubles (28). He also finished with a team leading on-base percentage of .472, and struck out just 24 times compared to 43 walks.

In many circumstances, a team that plays above its expectations has dark-horse players that come from nowhere to make an impact. Junior right fielder Dom Hayes fit that mold, batting .352 with 83 base hits, two triples and 25 RBIs. Junior first baseman Justin McDavid also broke through with 53 RBIs, the second-most on the team, and carried an impressive 21-game hitting streak. Two pitchers that injected life into the starting rotation were junior right-hander Andy Berry and freshman left-hander Michael Twigg. Berry finished 4-3 with 57 strikeouts in 70.2 innings pitched, and held ninthranked and top-seeded Louisville to just one run on four hits in six innings in the first round of the conference championship. Twigg became a reliable mid-week starter, finishing 3-1 with a 5.44 ERA in 11 appearances. He held opponents to a .275 batting average, and will be a worthy candidate to start at the top of WVU’s rotation in 2011. Despite playing one of the more difficult schedules in the country, which included six 2010 postseason participants, WVU managed to finish with a .305 team batting average. The feat marked the eighth straight year WVU has batted above .300. The 2010 WVU baseball team also recorded the second-most doubles in school history with 135, and tied the 2003 squad for the fourth-most extra base-hits with 201. WVU’s postseason bid was its third consecutive season of reaching the BIG EAST Championship. The Mountaineers last made at least three consecutive conference tournaments from 1996-99. During the season, WVU defeated three of its five Big Ten opponents in Iowa (9-5), Purdue (18-14) and Illinois (11-8). The Mountaineers also beat formidable foe Manhattan, erupted for a 20-9 win at long-time rival Maryland on April 7 and beat Eastern Kentucky, 13-11, at the Mountaineer Diamond Classic in front of 1,289 fans at Appalachian Power Park.
2011 SEASON
For his efforts, Gyorko earned several All-America accolades, most notably becoming a Pro-Line Athletic/National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association (NCBWA) first-team player. He was also given the Brooks Wallace Shortstop of the Year Award, named the NCBWA District II Player of the Year, and took second team honors from Base ball America, the American Baseball Coaches Association and Collegiate Baseball Newspaper. He capped off his illustrious career as the 59th overall selection in the second round of the Major League Baseball first-year player draft by the San Diego Padres. Buckner, an Elkview native, enjoyed a breakthrough season for the Old Gold and Blue. He batted .363 with eight home runs, 50 RBIs and 17 doubles. He earned national attention for his incredible three-game series against Notre Dame on May 8-9, which included a three-home run, 10-RBI performance in game one of a 22-6 WVU win. Buckner was rewarded with several national honors that week, being named the Pro-Line Athletic National Hitter of the Week, the Collegebaseballinsider.com National Player of the Week, the College Baseball Foundation National All-Star Lineup and the Louisville Slugger National Player of the Week Team. Altemus and Enourato were the two backbones on a pitching staff that grew as a unit. Both veterans led the team with six wins apiece, and combined for 49 appearances. In WVU’s 57 games played. Altemus set the single-season school record with 29 appearances, and Enourato led the Mountaineers with 67 strikeouts. Following the season, Altemus earned a free-agent contract with the San Francisco Giants, while Enourato signed a free-agent deal with the Toronto Blue Jays.

On April 11, WVU earned a quality victory at eventual BIG EAST postseason champion St. John’s, winning 10-8 in 13 innings. In that contest, Enourato gave up just two runs in eight relief innings, and managed to come out after injuring his ankle while going after a foul ball. The school’s all-time saves leader wanted to stay in the contest, but eventually gave way to Altemus, who earned the win. Despite bowing out with an 0-2 mark against Louisville and USF at the BIG EAST Championship, the 2010 WVU baseball team managed to get back up and fight after each passing blow. Throughout the tough losses and injuries, the Mountaineers never conceded and kept their eye on the ultimate goal of attaining a conference postseason spot. Van Zant and his coaching staff performed as well as ever for an injury-riddled group that many thought would never taste the postseason. Now just 23 wins from becoming the second coach in WVU baseball history to reach 500 victories, Van Zant only can hope that next year’s squad shows as much heart, resiliency and stick-to-itiveness that was displayed in the 2010 unit.

Tom Shafer 1961
COACHING STAFF
Known as one of the best pitchers to wear the Old Gold and Blue, Tom Shafer was named an Amateur Baseball Federation second team All-American after emerging as the ace of the pitching rotation in 1961. Shafer finished the regular season with a 6-1 mark and a 1.45 ERA. The hurler struck out 56 batters in 56 innings pitched, and gave up only nine earned runs while walking 18 batters. He led the Mountaineers to a 17-10 finish, including another postseason berth at the NCAA Tournament in Gastonia, N.C. Shafer is the school’s all-time leader in career ERA (1.69), seventh in innings pitched (235.0) and ninth in winning percentage (.708). He is also tied for eighth on the single-season list for wins (nine in 1962) and ninth for his eight complete games in 1962.

Ed Tekavec 1961
2011 SEASON
The versatile infielder who could play at both corners was honored as an American Baseball Coaches Association second team All-American in 1961, giving WVU its first All-American combination with Ed Tekavec and Tom Shafer. Tekavec led the offense with a blistering .427 batting average. He boasted a team-best 32 hits, 23 RBIs and 38 total bases prior to WVU’s entrance into the NCAA postseason. The upstart player platooned all around the infield, ranging from shortstop to third base to first base. He committed only two errors during his All-American campaign, making him a viable candidate as one of the nation’s best players. Tekavec lettered as a Mountaineer from 1960-62.

Joe Hatalla led WVU’s offensive attack in 1962 en route to being named a third team ABCA All-American. He powered his way to a .415 average during the regular season, and compiled one home run, 10 RBIs, eight doubles and a triple. The talented infielder paced the Mountaineers to a 17-9 record and another NCAA berth. Defensive-minded as well, he led the squad with 65 assists and sported a .954 fielding percentage during
his standout season. The Nemacolin, Pa., native played at WVU from 1961-63.
Bill Marovic 1964 Bill Marovic earned the prestigious honor of being WVU’s first-ever ABCA first-team AllAmerican. The Leckrone, Pa., native ended the 1964 season with a well-rounded .404 average. The three-year letterman led one of WVU’s most potent offenses, with six batters finishing with a .300 or better average. Marovic created havoc for opposing pitchers on the base paths, racking up a team-leading 27 stolen bases. WVU finished the season at 24-5, falling in its first two postseason contests against Missis-
sippi and East Carolina. The athletic centerfielder ranks first on the school’s all-time career list in stolen bases (74) and is tied for seventh with eight triples. His .404 average at the plate puts him 11th on WVU’s single-season list.
Mark Landers 1994 The Charleston, W.Va., native became the first Mountaineer to earn multiple All-American honors, being named an ABCA second team All-American as well as a Collegiate Baseball and National College Baseball Writers Association third team All-American in 1994. Landers was the catalyst for WVU’s recordsetting squad that reached the 40-win plateau for the first time in school history. He garnered a solid .416 average with a WVU single- season record 19 home runs and 81 RBIs, as well as 22 doubles. He added 91 hits and 57 runs scored to highlight his prolific season from the plate. The Mountaineers had an eventful season, winning the Atlantic-10 Tournament and then defeating St. Peter’s twice in an NCAA play-in series at Hawley Field behind Landers’ offensive prowess. Landers is fifth on the school’s all-time list in home runs (32) and RBIs (167). He is also atop WVU’s career leaders in base hits (220), at-bats (646), doubles (57), extra base hits (89), runs scored (142) and multi-hit games (61).
Chris Enochs 1997
As the dominant pitcher in WVU’s 1997 starting rotation, Chris Enochs was rewarded as a Collegiate Baseball and ABCA first team All-American. Besides being the second Mountaineer player to ever garner first-team honors, Enoch also was named a Sporting News, Baseball America and NCBWA second team All-American. Enochs’ productive season on the mound included a 12-1 mark with a 3.03 ERA. He tossed a single-season record 10 complete games and struck out 86 batters. The Newell, W.Va., native threw 95 innings in 15 appearances, which involved 14 starts. The multi-faceted player also hit well at the plate, carrying a .281 average with two home runs and 19 RBIs during his vintage season. His 21 career victories are tied for ninth all-time at WVU in just three seasons of work.
in NCAA history. Jenkins led the Mountaineers with a .372 batting average and produced 11 home runs and a team-high 21 doubles. After his superb 2007 season, he was signed by the Cleveland Indians. The steady left fielder is a fixture in the Mountaineer career record books, sitting among the school’s career leaders in batting average (.369), base hits (253), home runs (33), at-bats (686), RBIs (140), doubles (69), extra base hits (105) and runs scored (158).
Tyler Kuhn 2008 One of the great all-around baseball players at WVU, Tyler Kuhn finished off his senior campaign as a Pro Line Athletic/NCBWA and Rawlings/ABCA third team All-American. Known as one of the country’s most talented shortstops, Kuhn batted .424 with nine home runs, 56 RBIs and 17 doubles while leading the nation’s fifth-best offense to a 35-21 mark in 2008. The Louisville, Ky., native lettered from 2005-08 and was drafted by the Chicago White Sox. He is regarded as WVU’s “Iron Man” after playing in all 220 career games during his illustrious four-year career.
2011 WEST VIRGINIA UNIVERSITY BASEBALL
Hailing from Morgantown, infielder Jedd Gyorko left West Virginia University as arguably the greatest baseball player in school history. Following his sophomore year in 2009, Gyorko became the first Mountaineer to garner All-America accolades in more than one season, being named a Louisville Slugger second team All-American as well as a third team Pro-Line Athletic/NCBWA All-American. He was also honored as a second team All-American by the NCBWA
in 2008. In 2010, the fundamentally sound junior continued his burst into national consciousness. He became the first first team All-American since Chris Enochs in 1997 after being honored once again by the NCBWA, and was listed as a second team All-American by Baseball America, Collegiate Baseball Newspaper and ABCA/Rawlings. Gyorko, who was selected by the San Diego Padres in the second round of the 2010 Major League Baseball first-year player draft, is WVU’s all-time leader in batting average (.404), doubles (73), extra base-hits (113) and tied for first place in home runs (35). He is also the single-season leader in home runs (19 in 2010 is tied with Mark Landers), doubles (28 in 2009 and 2010), extra-base hits (48 in 2010), walks (43 in 2010), total bases (177 in 2010) and assists (192 in 2010).

The Ridgeley, W.Va., native left his final season at WVU in style after being named a Collegiate Baseball third team All-American in 2007. Justin Jenkins was also named to the Pro-Line Athletic NCBWA third team, as well as the Louisville Slugger NCAA Division I AllAmerica third team. His superb senior year was highlighted by a 38-game hitting streak that lasted from Feb. 17-April 28. Jenkins’ run was the longest ever by a BIG EAST player and ties for 10th place
scored and 89 hits. The two-time all-BIG EAST performer finished his junior year among the nation’s best with a .519 on-base percentage and posted a team-best 24 multiple RBI games. He finished his three-year career among the school’s all-time leaders in batting average (.388), base hits (216) and RBIs (174). Belnome also owns one of the greatest single-game performance in Mountaineer history, going 6-for-6 with two home runs, nine RBIs and four runs scored in an 18-3 rout over Cincinnati on May 10.
2010 REVIEW
Justin Jenkins 2007
Known as one of the greatest pure hitters in school history, Vince Belnome earned third team College Baseball Insider All-America honors after having his most prolific season in his final year. Belnome, who gave up his final year of eligibility after being drafted by the San Diego Padres in the 28th round, set the school record for RBIs with 84 in 2009. The Coatesville, Pa., native batted .418 with nine home runs, 20 doubles, 66 runs
RECORD BOOK
Joe McNamee was honored as an ABCA third team All-American in left field during the 1998 season. He led the Mountaineer hitting attack with a .429 average, 13 home runs, 66 RBIs and 27 doubles. Furthermore, the Bridgeport, W.Va., native tallied 61 runs and 152 total bases while putting together a .796 slugging percentage.

Former WVU pitcher Jeremy Cummings became the first Mountaineer baseball player to compete in the Summer Olympic Games as he helped lead Team USA to a Bronze Medal at the 2008 Games in Beijing, China. The Charleston, W.Va., native allowed one run on three hits in five innings pitched, contributing two solid appearances for the Red, White and Blue. Cummings’ second appearance included tossing two shutout innings in a 4-2 victory over Japan in 11 innings. Cummings’ other appearance came in a 5-4 extra-inning loss to defending champion Cuba, which finished with a silver medal. Not only did Cummings receive the thrill of competing for his native country, he also went on to enjoy one of his finest seasons as a member of the Durham Bulls, the Triple-A affiliate of the Tampa Bay Rays. He emerged at the front of the starting rotation with an 8-3 record and a 2.87 ERA in 14 games started. Cummings held several high marks while playing at WVU from 199699. He is the school’s all-time leader in career appearances with 58, eighth all-time with 225.1 innings pitched and is tenth on the career list with 211 strikeouts. The former Mountaineer standout also holds several single-season marks. His 109.2 innings pitched and 15 starts in 1999 are both second all-time, and his 119 strikeouts during the same season are fourth on the single-season list. Cummings also had 18 appearances during his junior campaign in 1998, good for sixth on WVU’s single-season list.

1892-2009: The listing of scores that follows is the most comprehensive to date with available sources of information. Scores from 1900 through present are verified and accurate. The years prior to 1900 are likely incomplete, but the scores listed for those games have been documented. Beginning with its first season in 1892, West Virginia University played several contests against non-intercollegiate competition until the practice was discontinued after the 1956 season.

JAMES P. CLEMENTS James P. Clements has said that no university in the country means as much to its state as West Virginia University means to West Virginia. Since becoming WVU’s 23rd president on June 30, 2009, Dr. Clements has shown a strong dedication to expanding the University’s role as a 21st century land-grant institution, providing superior academic programs, expanding a wellness initiative for students, technologically advancing research for use around the globe and strengthening service and health-care initiatives for the community. Dr. Clements has already announced several initiatives in support of this commitment, including: adding100 new faculty members to achieve goals directly related to WVU’s mission; building a new student health facility to increase wellness efforts; dedicating capital funds to expand outdoor recreational space for students; creating a grants budget office to assist researchers; and increasing research to strengthen the University’s position as a leader in fields such as energy, biometrics and health sciences. Additional priorities have been to continue offering world-class health care and – through WVU’s Top-10 ranked Rural Health Program – remain committed to increasing state outreach in the health sciences. Other goals include finding more efficient and effective ways to use technology to drive progress, increasing the diversity of WVU’s learning community and developing an even broader global focus in preparing students for new international opportunities. He also plans to focus on increasing student retention, increasing WVU’s doctoral program enrollment, enhancing leadership development and increasing operating funds. In 2009-10, private giving to the University increased, external and competitive funding for research grew, and student applications increased, keeping enrollment strong. A major strategic planning process was launched, several new facilities opened and ground was broken on a project to house WVU’s nationally acclaimed Physics Program. Recently, Dr. Clements was appointed to the American Council on Education’s (ACE) Commission on Women in Higher Education and was appointed to serve as the Outreach Liaison for the Association of Public and Land-Grant Universities (APLU), representing the Mid-Atlantic Region. Dr. Clements’ previous experience in higher education demonstrates his ability to help achieve these objectives and guide WVU to continued stability, growth and prominence. Before joining the Mountaineer family, Dr. Clements served as provost and vice president at Towson University, the secondlargest public university in Maryland. Under his leadership, Towson developed academic and student support programs that led to impressive increases in enrollment as well as retention and graduation rates. Towson’s externally-funded research increased by 36 percent during Dr. Clements’ tenure as provost. Prior to becoming provost, he served as Towson University’s vice president for economic and community outreach and as the Robert W. Deutsch Distinguished Professor and chair of the Department of Computer and Information Sciences. He was a fourtime recipient of Towson’s Faculty Member of the Year Award given by students at the university.
With a background in computer science, Dr. Clements also brings technological savvy to his role as president. He has a B.S. in computer science and an M.S. and Ph.D. in operations analysis from the University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC), as well as an M.S. in computer science from Johns Hopkins University. His project management textbook, in its fourth edition, is used in more than 20 countries and is published in four languages. At WVU, Dr. Clements is a tenured professor in the College of Engineering and Mineral Resources’ Lane Department of Computer Science and Electrical Engineering. In October 2009, he was named UMBC’s Alumnus of the Year in the Engineering and Information Technology category. Dr. Clements chairs the boards of the WVU Research Corporation, West Virginia United Health System and WVU Hospitals. He also serves as an ex-officio member of the WVU Foundation and WVU Alumni Association boards. He is married to Beth Clements, and they have four children – Tyler, twin daughters Hannah and Maggie, and Grace.

Women’s basketball, also set a school record for most wins in a season (29), finished second in the BIG EAST with 13 wins and was the BIG EAST Championship runner-up for the second time in school history.

Liz Repella was named an ESPN The Magazine/CoSIDA first team Academic All-American while Repella, Sarah Miles, Asya Bussie and Korinne Campbell were named all-BIG EAST. Coach Mike Carey was named BIG EAST co-Coach of the Year. Cross Country finished sixth at the NCAA Championships, marking the third-straight Top 10 national finish for the Mountaineers. Seniors Marie-Louise Asselin, Keri Bland and Clara Grandt earned All-America and all-BIG EAST honors and the squad was named an all-academic team by the USTFCCCA by showing the ninth-highest team GPA in the country, which also marked the highest GPA of any of the Top 25 teams at nationals.

The more things change, the more they stay the same. That certainly held true for West Virginia University Intercollegiate Athletics during the 2009-10 academic year. What stayed the same? Simply, it was WVU flexing its collective athletic muscles in the BIG EAST and on the national scene, yet again, in what continues to be the contemporary Golden Era. What changed? Simply, it was just changing the calendar to another year. Leading the way in what was yet another banner season for the department was the men’s basketball team’s school-record 31 wins, which saw the squad reach the NCAA Final Four for the second time in school history and win its first-ever BIG EAST championship. The team finished the year No. 3 in the final ESPN/USA Today poll, defeated seven ranked teams, reached the “Sweet 16” for the fifth time in the last six NCAA Tournament appearances, and coach Bob Huggins won his 670th career game in the Elite 8 victory over Kentucky. Individually, Da’Sean Butler led the way for WVU, garnering John Wooden, Basketball Times and Associated Press All-America honors and was named the Lowe’s Senior CLASS award winner. Devin Ebanks, Kevin Jones and Joe Mazzulla also garnered postseason honors. Football posted a 9-4 record and a 5-2 BIG EAST mark, tying for second in the league. WVU posted its fifth-straight season of nine wins or more, played in its eighth-straight bowl game and sixth New Year’s Day Bowl in the decade when it played Florida State in the Gator Bowl. WVU finished No. 22/25 in the final polls, marking the fifth- straight season WVU has finished in the Associated Press’ Top 25. Quarterback Jarrett Brown became the first 2,000-yard passer since 1998, and Noel Devine rushed for 1,465 yards, marking the 13th season out of the last 14 years where a Mountaineer eclipsed the 1,000 yard mark. Ten Mountaineers earned all-BIG EAST honors, while Reed Williams, a two-time Academic All-American, was named the BIG EAST Scholar Athlete of the Year and a National Football Foundation Scholar Athlete. West Virginia is the only school in the country during the last six years to win two BCS Bowl Games in football and make four Sweet 16 appearances in men’s basketball.
