Fifth year Northwestern State head coach J.P. Davis didn’t take long to forget about the 2011 season - the worst in his 12-year career on the Demon staff. But what he does remem-ber is what it takes to be a championship team in the Southland Conference, a title that he’s helped the Demons win three times as an assistant coach before taking over the reigns in 2008, and came so close to reeling in in 2010. The 2012 team has the makings of a championship calibur squad with enough depth at the pitching and fielding positions - the likes Davis hasn’t had since his first year in 2001. “This team has the ability and makeup to be very successful,” said Davis. “We should have much improved play offensively and defensively. This team has good overall team speed and athletic ability, and we have several guys at each position. On the mound, our depth should be a strong factor in our success. Hopefully this team will continue to improve and should be able to make some noise in the Southland Conference.”

The following is Davis’ outlook at each position:Pitchers We should have as a good of depth as we’ve had in a while. We have a number of guys that can be used in several different roles. All of these guys have the ability to get you out in different ways. We should be very competi-tive on the mound. Joe Scanio had a strong season last year out of the pen and we look for him to move into the weekend rotation this year. He has a good fastball and has improved his secondary stuff. Jacob Williford started out as a midweek guy for us and moved into the weekend rotation. Jake should be able to build upon last year and continue to be a strong starter for us in the rotation. Colin Bear was our Sunday starter last year and is our most expe-rienced returning guy. Colin has continued to improve on his game and we look for him to be a leader and have another huge impact on this team. Mason Melotakis developed into one of the top relievers in the SLC last spring. He has great stuff and likes to compete. We look for him to continue where he left off last year and be a go to guy out of the pen once again. Side note: Melotakis was named by Baseball America as the Southland Conference’s top Major League Baseball Draft prospect. Jacob Roark is a guy that we are looking to too really come into his own this year. Last year he threw out of the pen and served as a midweek starter. We are looking for him to serve in that role once again this year. Jacob has very good stuff and has the ability to pitch a lot of innings for us this year. Andrew Adams threw for us as a true freshman in 2010. He is sat at last year after having shoulder surgery and is fully healthy and is back ready to have an impact on this year’s staff. Andrew likes to compete and will factor in heavily for us as a reliever and midweek starter.

Mason Melotakis

Joe Scanio



Jamie Bittle is a true freshman left-hander that will be able to come in and give us quality relief innings. Jamie can get you out in several ways. He could also could factor in as a mid-week starter. JP Clifton is a JC transfer that is another guy that will factor in for us out of the pen as well as starter during midweek games. JP has a good fastball and good secondary stuff as well. AJ Funk is another JC transfer that should factor in heavily. AJ likes to compete and comes right after hitters. He has several ways to get you out. AJ will factor in out of the pen and could also start for us midweek as well. Carson Goldsmith is a two way guy that could definitely be a factor for us on the mound. He has a good mentality on the mound and possesses a good fastball and a good breaking ball. He should add depth to the back end of the pen. Austin Robson is yet another JC transfer that figures to factor in heavily as reliever and as a starter. He has good mound presence and has the ability to get hitters out in various ways. We look for Austin to throw a lot of innings for us. Fabian Roman is a JC transfer that has a very good arm and likes to compete on the mound. Fabian has the ability throw in relief, be a midweek starter, or a weekend starter for us. Zach Winchester is another JC transfer that has a good arm that should factor in heavily for us. Zack has a good fastball and much improved offspeed pitches. He will throw mainly out of the pen but develop into a starter for us as well. Cameron Brewer is a JC transfer that will redshirt after undergoing off-season shoulder surgery.

Catchers Matt Farmer is the lone returning catcher from last season. Matt did a nice job last season, giving us some quality innings behind the plate and should do the same again this season. He has continued to improve his blocking, receiving, and throwing skills. Offensively, Matt will give a strong left-handed presence at the plate. Carson Goldsmith is a JC transfer that will compete to be a starting catcher. Carson is big and durable, and has shown to be a good receiver and blocker. He has a strong throwing arm that should serve well to limit the running game. Offensively, Carson can be a middle of the order type hitter for us. Nick Purdy is also a JC transfer and has come in and made very good strides defensively. He has improved in all phases, especially his throwing. Offensively, Nick is a very balanced hitter that is a tough out. He can handle the bat and hit for power. Nick looks to be our Opening Day catcher. Todd Wallace is yet another JC transfer that looks to figure in behind the plate. Todd is solid defensively and has the tools to be a very productive middle of the order hitter for us. Todd will compete for the starting catching job and should factor in heavily for us. James Coats a is freshman that will redshirt but we feel is going to be a good player for us down the road. James is learning the catching position after missing fall workouts with a shoulder injury to his non-throwing side.

Infielders Will Watson returns as one of the top first basemen in the SLC and continues to develop offensively and de-fensively. His throwing has greatly improved. Will also looks to be one of the better hitters in the league as he should hit at the top of the order for us. Ray Frias is the returning starting second baseman. Ray had a good fall offensively and we look for him to continue that this spring. He can handle the bat as well and split a gap. Defensively, he has very good hands and range. We are looking to him to have a very good season for us this year and provide strong senior leadership.

Will Watson

Nick Hinojos

Ray Frias



Nick Hinojos was our starting SS for most of last spring but will be our opening day starter at 3B this year. He looks to factor in as a middle of the order hitter for us as well. He is strong and has the ability to be RBI producer for us. Chad Northcott was a backup infielder for us last year and looks to do the same again this year. He is very versatile and can play any position on the infield. Offensively, Chad is also versatile and can handle the bat. He can put a bunt down for you, execute a hit and run, or split a gap. Ryan Westbrook is guy that could factor in heavily for us this year. He took a redshirt last year after injuring his throwing shoulder but is back healthy. He is versatile and can play any position on the infield. Offensively, He has the ability to a RBI guy for us in the middle of the order. Shawn Hoover is another guy that took a redshirt last year after battling several injuries. He can provide us with a strong left-handed bat and has good power and good plate discipline.

He can also play SS if needed. Josh has good actions and an accurate and strong throwing arm. At the plate, he has the ability to drive the ball. Matt Burns is a JC transfer that has established himself as our starting SS. Matt is athletic and has good range and an a c -curate throwing arm. Offensively, Matt should be our catalyst at the top of the order. He has the ability to handle the bat, split a gap, and steal bases. Mitch Huckabay is a freshman infielder that is going to be a very good player for us. He can play all three infield posi-tions and has good range and an accurate throwing arm. Offensively, he does a good job of handling the bat.

Outfielders Drew Helenihi is our lone returning starter in the outfield and is one of the top defenders in the league. He gets very good reads on balls and has a very accurate and strong throwing arm. Offensively, Drew was very solid for us last year and looks to continue that again this season. Jordan Buckley is one of the most talented players in the SLC. with big league tools. He had a very good fall and early spring and we look for him to have a good year for us this season as he is slated to be our opening day rightfielder. Matt Baca is a JC transfer that is competing for a starting outfield spot. He has improved defensive skills and at the palte, will give us a very strong presence in the middle of the lineup. He has very good power and should be a RBI producer for us. Nick Doughty is another JC transfer that is competing for a starting outfield spot. He has very good power to all fields and figures to be a very strong left-handed presence in the lineup for us. Kevin Sanford is a JC transfer that is competing for a starting position in the outfield and is very versatile and can play any of the three outfield spots. He plays very good defense and has a strong, accurate throwing arm. Offensively, he runs well and handles the bat very well. Jacob Clouatre is a freshman that has the ability to be a very good player for us. He has very solid defensive skills and runs well. Offensively, he will continue to get better as he matures and gets stronger. We are very excited about Jacob’s future here at NSU.

Designated Hitter Colin Bear looks to be our DH after serving as the DH last spring as well as playing leftfield. He established himself as one of the top hitters in the league last year. He is a true middle of the order hitter and RBI producer. Other guys that could see action at the DH spot are Hoover, Doughty, Baca, Farmer, Goldsmith, Westbrook, Wallace, and Golsmith.

2011 F.L. McDonald Postgraduate Scholarship recipient J.P. Davis will enter his fifth season as the skipper of the Northwestern State Demons and is focused on bringing the team back to the top of the Southland Conference - a place it dominated for so long in the 1990s and 2000s. Davis, who will continue to oversee the pitching coach du-ties, has helped NSU win three conference championships while coaching 20 All-SLC pitchers and developing 15 Major League Draft picks since 2001. In his first year at the helm, he guided the Demons to their best conference record (17-12) since the 2005 team finished 22-5. His team also held the top spot in the East Division standings for much of the season before finishing second. And in 2010, he posted his first overall winning season (36-21) while finishing 22-10 in league play for a second place finish - just one-half game from bringing home the school’s 10th SLC title. The 2010 campaign was filled with accomplishments, both as a team and individual. The Demons broke or tied six team records - batting average (.322), hits (646), total bases (939), strikeouts thrown (459), batters struckout in a game (21 vs. Sam Houston State on April 1), and tied a record with 22 league wins. There were also eight individual game, season, and career records snapped or tied - hitting streak (Eric DeBlanc, 28), stolen bases (Chase Lyles, 34), saves (Chad Sheppard, tied with 10), pickoffs (Aaron Munoz, 13), stolen bases in a game (Lyles, 4 vs. UTA on March 27), sacrifice flies in a career (Lyles tied with 12), saves in a career (Sheppard, 20), and strikeouts thrown (Heath Hennigan with 255). Davis succeeded Mitch Gaspard, head coach from 2002-07, who resigned in July of 2007 to become the No. 1 assistant to former NSU head coach Jim Wells at the University of Alabama. Gaspard has since been promoted to head coach for the



Crimson Tide. Davis stepped into a charmed spot in college baseball. His immediate predecessors in the Demons’ dugout have carved prominent identities in the game. Wells coached the Demons from 1990-94 before taking the Alabama job and was succeeded by Dave Van Horn, who headed NSU’s pro-gram from 1995-97 before going to Nebraska and then to his alma mater, Arkansas. John Cohen took over in 1998 and departed four seasons later, and is the head coach at Kentucky. Wells, Van Horn and Cohen all have won national coach of the year honors in their current positions after each led the Demons to at least two Southland Conference titles. Gas-pard, who turned down at least two head coaching offers elsewhere during his six seasons with the Demons, guided NSU to SLC titles in 2002 and 2005 and was strongly consid-ered for head coaching posts at Oklahoma and Auburn while at NSU. Since Wells arrived and revitalized Northwestern’s pro-gram, the Demons have won nine of the last 17 SLC cham-pionships with 654 wins, a .602 winning percentage, and six 40-win seasons since 1990, best by any conference team. Davis, 39, was hired by Cohen prior to the 2001 season in which Northwestern won the SLC title with a 38-17 mark. Gaspard retained him after Cohen’s departure following the 2001 season, and the Demons immediately won another SLC title. The third Southland crown won in his tenure came in 2005, when NSU set a league marks with 22 wins and an .815 winning percentage in league play (22-5) and a record six-game margin in the league standings. “There is no doubt in my mind that J.P. has the baseball knowledge and background to be the next successful head baseball coach at Northwestern State, said Director of Athlet-ics Greg Burke of his hiring. “He truly has played a major role in the high level of success achieved by NSU baseball over the past seven years. In addition, he knows the Demon base-ball program, as well as our university and community, very well and will certainly utilize that knowledge to his advantage. “I was impressed with J.P.’s perspective regarding NSU’s baseball program, both in terms of what has happened in the past and in terms of the vision he has for the future. He will work with great passion, an intangible which is always a posi-tive. In fact, I have met very few individuals who were as ea-ger to ‘hit the ground running’ as a new head coach than J.P. “The transition from assistant coach to head coach, as al-ways, will be an adjustment but in J.P.’s case, his familiarity

with NSU will lessen that adjustment.” Gaspard, who teamed with Davis to produce a Top 40-ranked recruiting class at Northwestern in 2006, said the new head coach earned the opportunity. “During our six years together, J.P. has definitely been one of the more respected assistants in the Southland Confer-ence as both a pitching coach and as a recruiter. We worked hand-in-hand through the championships and other success-ful moments enjoyed by the NSU baseball program,” said Gaspard. Four times, in 2002 (No. 23), 2003 (35th), 2005 (No. 30), 2010 (No. 30) Northwestern has earned rankings in national collegiate polls with Davis handling the pitching staff. The De-mons ranked 17th nationally in earned run average (3.85) and led the SLC in his first season, 2001, and a year later ranked 12th nationally and tops in the league with a 3.54 ERA. NSU also led the SLC in ERA in 2005 (3.99). Fourteen school pitching marks have fallen under Davis’ tutelage while NSU compiled a 338-230 (.595) overall record,

including a 159-94 (.628) mark in the Southland. He recruited 26 All-SLC players, including 13 pitchers - notably 2002 SLC Pitcher of the Year O.J. King and 2005 SLC Player of the Year Blake Jones. One of his craftiest pitchers, left-hander Zach Sanches (2001-03), was the winning pitcher over third-ranked LSU as a sophomore. “Coach D’ was one of the main reasons I was successful at NSU. I had a terrible fall my first year but he stuck with me and turned my career around,” said Sanchez, now district sales manager for Association Member Benefits Advisors. “He is te-nacious, he’s a winner, and he gets the most out of you.” Carl Makowsky, who beat No. 21 Arkansas in 2001, his ju-nior year, said: “‘Coach D’ understands the entire game, not just the pitching aspect. Any time I was fundamentally un-sound, he would pick up what I was doing wrong. He always got the best out of our pitching staff and that will carry over to the entire team as head coach.” One of his recent pupils was Daniel Lonsberry, a star on the 2005 team which reached the NCAA Tournament. “‘Coach D’ is an extremely hard worker and a great recruit-er. He always had a way of going out and finding the answer to a problem. He turned my career around and that has given me the chance to play professional baseball,” said Lonsberry. Davis came to NSU from Neosho County (Kan.) Community College, where he helped build the 1999 Jayhawk Conference Eastern Division Sub-Regional championship team. In four seasons at Neosho, Davis produced 18 all-conference play-ers, including one All-American, and sent 39 student-athletes forward to four-year institutions. Under his direction, Neosho pitchers broke 18 of 31 school record, while his bullpen posted a 3.58 ERA. He also served as an associate scout in the Cleveland Indi-ans organization.

8th Season at NSU25 All-Conference Players11 Players Drafted2005 SLC Player of the Year

Jeff McCannon is a 15 year coaching veteran. Coach “Mac” as he is more commonly known is entering his fifth season as the recruiting coordinator and his seventh season at NSU. He continues to direct the Demon offense and coach the catchers. McCannon has coached 35 players that were either drafted or signed MLB contracts in his coaching career. The Demons had two players selected in last year’s MLB Draft and in 2010, had a school-record five players drafted. During his time at NSU, he’s seen 11 play-ers selected by Major League Baseball. In 2011, he coached Colin Bear to the school’s Triple Crown and coached three players to over .300 batting averages. Bear finished the season with a .340 batting average, five home runs, and 41 runs batted in. He also led the team with a .515 slugging percentage and 19 doubles. In 2010, Demon hitters led a blitzkrieg on the schools record books. They received recognition nationally and shattered school records both team wise and individually. The Demons hit .322 as a team which broke the school record set in 1993. The hits record was shattered as the Demons had 646 hits collectively, the most since 2002. It was the first time in the school’s history to have four players (Oscar Garcia, Eric DeBlanc, Chase Lyles, and Tyler Baisley) with 70 or more hits for a season. Two of those players had 80 hits (Gar-cia and DeBlanc). The 939 total bases was another record that fell, previously held since 1999. The Demons were once again ranked nationally at 25th in the country for stolen bases with a total of 106. Along the way there were may individual records broken. Eric LeBlanc broke the consecutive hit streak record (28) set in 2007. Chase Lyles set the stolen base record with 34 bags, a record that was set in 1995. Oscar Garcia finished the season with a .382 bat-ting average and was .001 points away from winning the conference batting title. Defensively, catcher Aaron Munoz led the country with 13 pickoffs. “He’s done an outstanding job of running the offense, and as the recruiting coordinator,” said Demon head coach J.P. Davis of McCan-non. “He has been vital to the continued success for the baseball program here at NS. Since he’s been here, he’s done an exceptional job of connecting with the players. And that in turn shows on the field.” McCannon served two seasons as the Nicholls State Hitting coach before joining the Demon staff. Prior to Nicholls, he spent a year at Kansas State as a Volunteer assistant, helping the Wildcats to a fourth place finish in the Big 12 Conference, and in 2000, helped lead his alma mater, Arizona to a 33-23 record and a fifth place finish in a

rugged Pacific-10 with a 12-12 conference mark. Prior to his time at Arizona, McCannon spent two years as an as-sistant coach at Butler County Community College in 1999 and 2000. Before going to Butler County in 1999, McCannon worked as an assistant for Division II power Fort Hays State where he helped the Tigers to the 1998 Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference title and an overall record of 44-14. A native of Wichita, KS, McCannon earned his Bachelor’s degree in Exercise Sports Science with a Minor in Physical Education from Arizona in 1997.



AndyMorgan(Park University, 2003)#35 assistant CoaCH

1st Season at NSU Andy Morgan, who was named the 2010 Jayhawk East Coach of the Year and guided his teams to its most wins in back-to-back seasons in school history, is the newest member of the Northwestern State coaching staff, hav-ing replaced Phillip Miller who returned after last season as an assistant at Sam Houston State - a position he held from 2005-09.. “I am really excited about having Andy come on board with us,” said Demon head coach Jon Paul Davis. “Andy

is as good of a young baseball coach as you’ll find out there. He has a strong passion for the game and a knowledge that far surpasses his years. His knowledge and background of experience are what led me to believe that he was the right guy for this job. He has the ability and all the right intangibles to help us become better.” Last season, Morgan directed Coffeyville Community College squad to a 27-31 campaign and a second place finish at the Liberal Super Regional. In the last two seasons, the Ravens won 56 games, the most wins in back-to-back seasons in school history. Coffeyville also had five sophomores transfer on to NCAA Division I programs under his leadership. In his second season as head coach in 2010, Morgan was named Jayhawk East Coach of the Year after leading Coffeyville to a third place finish in the Jayhawk East Division - the best ever conference finish for Coffeyville baseball. In addition to a 21-15 conference mark, Coffeyville finished the year 29-32 overall and setting a school record for most wins in a season and placed second in the sub-region baseball tournament. The team also set school records for 35 team/individual offensive/pitching categories. In his first year as head coach, Morgan and the Ravens posted a respectable 15-21 conference record in the Jayhawk Conference East and quali-fied for the Region 6 playoffs despite losing a preseason All-American pitcher and top hitter due to injuries. Morgan helped develop 20 players have moved on to four-year insti-tutions to continue their education and playing careers and coached six players who would earn postseason awards while one would go on to earn NJCAA All American. As an assistant, Morgan helped Coffeyville advance to postseason play in both of his seasons. His primary responsibilities included recruit-ing coordinator, hitting coach, and in charge of the infielders. Academically, Coffeyville has improved in the classroom as well since Morgan’s arrival. Four players were named NJCAA Distinguished Aca-demic All–Americans while six earned NJCAA Academic All–Americans. Morgan has a proven track record of developing players. During a four year span with the Kansas City Sluggers, a nationally known high school baseball academy, Morgan saw 11 players selected in the Major League Baseball Amateur Draft, 14 of his players sign with Division I programs, and seven others with Division II teams. In the summers of 2008 and 2010, Morgan coached for the Falmouth Commodores of the Cape Cod League and worked on a daily basis with some of the best amateur players in the country while helping direct the Commodores to a second place finish in the West Division and a second straight appearance in the league playoffs.

Dr. Randall J. WebbNorthwestern State President Dr. Randall J. Webb stated when he became Northwestern State Uni-versity’s 17th president in July of 1996 that his primary objective would be to help make his Alma Mater the best institution it could be. It is apparent after 15 years that Webb is achieving that admirable goal. Enrollment has reached record levels during Webb’s tenure as presi-dent and exceeded 10,500 for the first time in history in the fall of 2004. Webb has also been at the forefront in recent years of moving the uni-versity toward higher admission standards, which has resulted in some enrollment declines but in the enrollment of students with greater aca-demic potential and aptitude.

Retention has increased at the university, the average ACT score of students has gone up, and high school student leaders are enrolling in Northwestern in record numbers. There has been a substantial increase in the number of high school valedictorians and salutatorians among first-time freshmen at the university. External funding for NSU has also increased dramatically under Webb’s leadership. In the first capital campaign in its history, the university received $32.7 million to far exceed its goal of $18.84 million. That funding included the establishment of numerous endowed chairs and professorships to enhance academic programs at the university. In addition to the private funding, Northwestern has received more grant monies in recent years from state and federal agencies and private foundations than at any time since its founding in 1884. Webb has also expanded the university’s outreach by spearheading the development at NSU of the largest electronic education and distance learning network of any university in Louisiana. NSU offers courses and degree programs to students across the nation and world through Internet and compressed video. Millions of dollars have been obtained during Webb’s presidency for new and renovated facilities. A new $6.9 million Wellness, Recreation and Activity Center opened on the campus in 2005; and Morrison Hall, the Family and Consumer Sciences Building, and Williamson Hall have been com-pletely renovated and restored. A new Student Services Center on the site of the former West Caspari Hall will be complete early next year. Over $32 million in construction by a private company has added two modified residence halls to the campus in recent years. Funding has also been obtained to rebuild the East Caspari Hall and replace the underground electrical distribution system. Northwestern academic programs and athletic teams continue to receive positive national recognition. The Computer Information Systems pro-gram, for example, won five consecutive national championships in academic competition in systems analysis, and the NSU men’s basketball team defeated Iowa in the NCAA national championship tournament. A former center on the Northwestern football team, Webb is an avid supporter of the university’s athletic programs and has held positions of leadership at the national level in intercollegiate athletics. He has served as chair of the board of directors of the Southland Conference and has been a member of the prestigious NCAA Executive Council and the NCAA Division I Board of Directors that oversee all major policy decisions by the governing body for major college sports. He currently serves as the Southland Conference representative on the NCAA Presidential Advisory Group. A 1965 graduate of Northwestern in mathematics and business education, Webb earned a master of science degree in mathematics from NSU in 1966. He received a doctorate in education from the University of Southern Mississippi in 1971 with a concentration in mathematics and research. Webb was a member of the faculty of Longwood College in Farmville, Va, from 1966 until 1974. He served as Director of Higher Education and Teacher Certifica-tion in the Louisiana Department of Education from 1974 through 1976. He moved to Southeastern Louisiana University in 1976 and in 13 years there held positions as director of institutional research, EEO officer, registrar and member of the mathemat-ics faculty. He became Dean of Instruction and Graduate Studies and professor of mathemat-ics at Northwestern in 1989. In that position, he was responsible for campus-wide policy development, planning, advancement, and review of both graduate and under-graduate programs. While Webb was in that position, graduate enrollment increased by 35 percent, and internal funding for faculty research increased by 200 percent. As dean, Webb proposed the concept for NSU’s successful Freshman Connection Program and served as a member of the writing team for a grant proposal that resulted in a five year, $1.7 million Title III grant to improve student retention. He also chaired the steering committee for NSU’s Self Study for the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools. He has been active in the community as a member of the board of directors of the Natchitoches Chamber of Commerce and as a member of the Association for the Pres-ervation of Historic Natchitoches, the Natchitoches Historic Foundation, the Natchi-toches-Northwestern Symphony Society, Rotary Club, and the First Baptist Church. Webb and his wife Brenda have two daughters, both honor graduates of Northwest-ern. Tamara and her husband, former NSU All-America baseball pitcher Reggie Gate-wood, live in McKinney, Texas, withtheir children Tyler and Ava. Lauren is married to former outstanding NSU baseball player Nick Simokaitis, and they live in St. Louis with their sons Nicholas and Benjamin.

Jerry PierceVice President • External Affairs Jerry Pierce is the Cal Ripken of the Northwestern State athletic program. Day after day, year after year, Pierce is in the lineup, field-ing his position with aplomb, and delivering at the plate, knocking a ball out of the park from time to time but always taking an understated profile, seeing himself as a role player. Beginning his 47th year on the university’s staff, Pierce’s impact on NSU and the city of Natchitoches can’t be mea-sured as easily as Ripkin’s Baseball Hall of Fame statistics, but they are equally indelible.

He begins his 21st year as vice president of external affairs at Northwestern. A sig-nificant aspect of his job is oversight of intercollegiate athletics. Pierce works closely with athletic director Greg Burke and all NSU coaches and staff members to keep Northwestern athletics competing at a championship level week after week, month after month and year after year. Pierce is an avid tennis player who has been a member of USTA teams that have won more than a dozen state championships, five regional titles and one national championship. Well before moving into the executive position, Pierce had already served his alma ma-ter, adopted hometown and state with distinction. In his role as vice president, he oversees

university operations in athletics, alumni and development, public and media relations and assists President Dr. Randall J. Webb in governmental affairs activities. Many of those duties were his since the 1970s as he worked under four previous pres-idents as Northwestern advanced from NAIA to NCAA College Division to NCAA Division I athletic status in 1977. A 1961 graduate of Northwestern, Pierce served as trainer for the Demon football team during his college years, work-ing closely with legendary coach Jack Clayton. After earning his journalism degree, Pierce went to work for the New Or-leans Times Picayune, serving as a reporter and editor. He was named executive sports editor at the age of 24. In 1965, he chose to raise his two sons in Natchitoches and returned to NSU as sports information director. He was pro-moted to news bureau director two years later and assumed additional responsibilities in athletics, alumni affairs and other areas through the years. He founded, in 1972, the Louisiana Sports Hall of Fame facil-ity in Prather Coliseum on the NSU campus, providing a home for an entity created in 1958. He established annual induction activities that remain in place nearly four decades later, and served as director of the Hall for 19 years until his promotion to vice president forced him to step aside from the volunteer post. He helped guide Northwestern into three athletic conferences (Trans America, 1979; Gulf Star, 1983; Southland, 1987) and NCAA Division I status in 1977. He is a past president of the Southland and has served the conference through other offices and committee positions. In 1994, he was named one of Louisiana’s 20 most influential sports figures by the Times-Picayune. Also on the list were New Orleans Saints owner Tom Benson, LSU athletic director Joe Dean and basketball coach Dale Brown, and Grambling foot-ball coaching legend Eddie Robinson.

His salesmanship and managerial skills were instrumental in convincing Tri-Star Pro-ductions to film the 1989 smash hit movie Steel Magnolias, with an all-star cast including Julia Roberts, Sally Field and Dylan McDermott in Natchitoches and on the NSU campus. The movie’s impact on tourism in Natchitoches continues to resonate more than two de-cades later. Pierce is regarded as one of the most effective legislative liaisons for Louisiana’s higher education system. He is also a popular after dinner speaker and master of ceremonies who has spoken at hundreds of events since 1965. In addition to his administrative responsibilities, Pierce is a member of the Journalism Department faculty. He is the author of one book and editor of two others and has written thousands of editorials, columns, features and other articles for newspapers and maga-zines. Pierce and his wife Regina, a teacher, live on Cane River Lake in Natchitoches. He has two sons, Randy and Rick, both NSU graduates; and three grandchildren, twins Evan and Amanda, 22, and Miranda, 11, and two stepchildren, Nicholas and Natalie.

In the midst of his 16th year as director of athletics at Northwestern State, Greg Burke has received national acclaim for the job he’s done in his adopted home-town.

Burke has been athletics director at Northwestern since Aug. 29, 1996, when his first day included speaking at the annual NSU/Independence Bowl Kickoff Luncheon. Burke is the longest serving AD at any Louisiana institution. He has steered NSU athletics to many of its greatest accomplishments while overseeing a program that has fielded championship caliber teams in nearly all of the school’s NCAA Division I sports. Last year, he was included among 29 winners of the Under Amour AD of the Year Award presented by the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA). He was also among four winners chosen to be involved in a Street and Smith’s SportsBusiness Journal panel discussion on current Division I athletics issues. Joining NSU’s Burke were Purdue’s Morgan Burke (no relation), Samford’s Bob Roller and Lee Fowler of North Carolina State, with the transcript of their discussion distributed to national media by the Sports Business Daily. Burke just completed a term as the 2010-11 president of the Football Championship Subdivision Athletics Directors Association. Burke’s 15 years as athletic director include 32 Southland Conference regular-season or tournament championships, 54 All-American and Academic All-American student athletes, and three U.S. Olympic competitors. Seventeen NSU teams have taken part in NCAA or WNIT postseason competition. Under his guidance, Northwestern State has led all 13 public institutions in Louisiana, and all 12 Southland Conference institutions, in the NCAA’s Academic Progress Rate and Graduation Success Rate reports. The school’s athletic facilities have undergone nearly $7 million in improvements in the past four years. NSU in 2004-05 became the first (and remains the only) Southland Conference member in the league’s five decades of history to sweep football, men’s basketball and baseball championships in the same athletic year. It’s been done only once in Southeastern Conference history, by Alabama in 1933-34, and only four times in Big Ten Conference history, the last time by Michigan State in 1979-80. Those accomplishments have come with one of the more modest athletic budgets in the state and conference. Burke’s management skill and fundraising ability have been pivotal. Burke generated a $2 million series of sponsorships for new scoreboards installed for 2008-09 at all NSU athletic venues and spearheaded the $700,000 Second Century Circle fencing project for athletic venues. Burke has displayed a remarkable ability to hire dynamic head coaches, including several whose success at Northwestern State has propelled them to national prominence in subsequent positions, including basketball’s Mike McConathy who guided Northwestern in NCAA Tournament play in his second season and has been back to postseason since. NSU’s 2006 basketball team scored one of the most memorable upsets in the history of March Madness, coming from 17 down to stun No. 15-ranked Iowa 64-63. Burke has selected head coaches who have subsequently been hired by Alabama, Florida, Missouri, New Mexico, Kentucky, Virginia, Mississippi State and Wichita State. From his first day on the job, Burke has stressed the importance of having a balanced athletic program. To that end, tremendous competitive strides have been made in women’s athletics under his guidance. The NSU soccer program was the first one in Louisiana ever to reach the NCAA Tournament and remains the only one with multiple appearances. Volleyball set attendance records and has made its best-ever showings in conference play in recent years. In softball, NSU posted the nation’s most improved win total in 2010 regular-season play under second-year coach Donald Pickett, and moved among league contenders in 2011. The Lady Demons joined Stanford as the only women’s tennis programs in the country in 2010 with only one regular-season loss, while sweeping Southland regular-season and tournament titles and making a first-ever NCAA Team Tournament appearance. While on-field success by Demon and Lady Demon teams has been a source of pride for NSU supporters, Burke is equally proud of the tone which has been set within the NSU athletic program as it relates to academic achievement and community service. The academic accomplishments are reflected annually in the NCAA’s APR and GSR studies. Community service by NSU student-athletes, coaches and staff more than doubled to over 5,000 hours in 2009-10 and remained at that level in 2010-11. Burke spearheaded the adoption of the slogan “Great Tradition, Brighter Future” for NSU Ath-letics, and the creation of NSU Athletics “Cornerstones” for student-athletes: “Academic Achieve-ment, Personal Responsibility, Competitive Success … Every Minute, Every Hour, Every Day!” In 2005, Burke was one of three recipients of the All-America Football Foundation’s Gen. Rob-ert R. Neyland Outstanding Athletic Director Award and that same year, was also tabbed as one of two Natchitoches Parish Cenla Newsmakers of 2005 by the Alexandria Town Talk newspaper’s editorial staff. He received the 2006 “Outstanding Alumni Award” from his alma mater, Marlington High School in Alliance, Ohio, recognizing his community service and professional achievements. Burke became one of only 21 alumni honored since the award was instituted in 1982. In June 2006, he was a featured speaker and panelist at the National Association of Collegiate Athletic Directors convention in New Orleans, addressing members of the College Athletic Business Managers of America and also participating in a panel discussion of “Fundraising from an Athletic Director’s Perspective” speaking to the National Association of Athletic Development Directors. Since 2007, Burke has been a member of the prestigious NCAA Championships/Sports Man-agement Cabinet, a 49-person panel which makes recommendations to the NCAA Board of Direc-tors on key issues facing Division I athletics. He previously served a four-year term on the NCAA Division I Football Issues Committee (1999-2002) and concurrently served a term on the eight-member NCAA FCS Committee that administers the national playoffs. Since his committee term expired, Burke has served as a site su-pervisor for Football Championship Subdivision playoff games across the nation and he is regarded as one of the country’s premiere advocates of FCS football. In 2004, NSU received the highest possible rating, “fully certified,” from the National Collegiate Athletic Association, affirming that Northwestern operates its athletic program in substantial conformity with operating principles ad-opted by the NCAA Division I membership. Burke is a past president of the Natchitoches Kiwanis Club and remains active in that civic group. He has also been part of the steering committee for the Natchitoches Christmas Festival and is a former president of the Natchitoches Area Jaycees. He is involved with the American Heart As-sociation and was 2010 March of Dimes chairman locally. He and his wife, Susu, is a Natchitoches native, NSU graduate and an elementary teacher. Their 17-year-old daughter, Catherine, is captain of the St. Mary’s High School cheerleading squad, in addition to being a point guard on the basketball team and a member of the tennis team.

Kyle Barnard has been named the interim athletic ticket manager and is also assistingwith development. His duties include working with event management, external af-fairs, and alumni relations aside from his ticket manager needs. His career plans are to become an associate athletic director.

His first year at Northwestern State served as a graduate assistant for the department. While working with game day operations and marketing/promotions, he served on the diver-sity council for NSU during the NCAA recertification process. Kyle organized a NCAA diversity workshop for both coaches and players. Barnard received his undergraduate degree in kinesiology and fitness from Ouachita Bap-tist University. He was a 4 year letterman and a 3 year starter on the offensive line for the OBU football team. As a captain his junior and senior year, the team had their highest ranking in school history. He served as member and president of OBU’s Student-Athlete Advisory Com-mittee. While attending OBU, Kyle reached the dean’s list and was a member of IFC (Inter Fraternal Council) and also was a member of Rho Sigma men’s social club. His hometown is The Woodlands, Texas. In high school, he was named to the all-district and all-county teams at The Woodlands High School. Kyle also earned a power lifting letter. The son of Ron and Brenda Barnard, he was born Nov. 13, 1987, in Corpus Christi, Texas and

has one brother, Conall. He is currently married to Brittany Barnard, a pediatric RN at Cabrini Hospital.

Faculty Athletic Representative Jody Biscoe is Associate Professor

of Psychology and Addiction Studies at Northwestern State, where he is the coordinator for the undergraduate Addiction Studies, and Substance Abuse/Prevention concentrations. Since 2006, he has served as Faculty Athletic Representative for NSU. This role includes the chair of the NSU Athletic Council. Since 2006, Northwestern State University has made numerous paradigm shifts in how it addresses the needs of student-athletes; however, one thing has been consistent in that its student-athletes are winners on the field and in the classroom. All have heard about higher educational institutions being penalized by the NCAA for academic improprieties. NSU has attempted to be a model program of “Doing Things the Right Way,” by following the Athletic Department motto: Great Tradition – Brighter Futures. This past year, NSU was one of only four schools in the State of Louisiana that did not receive any penalties for low NCAA Academic Progress Rates (APR) with baseball, soccer, softball, tennis, women’s indoor & outdoor track, and volleyball rating in the top three in the Southland Conference. Among the 40 Northwest-ern State student-athletes and athletic staff members who graduated in spring 2010, 10 of the 20 receiving undergraduate degrees graduated either cum laude or magna cum laude. Gradu-ation rates of student-athletes in soccer, volleyball, men’s basketball, baseball and football ranked in the top four of the Conference. These accomplishments could not have been achieved without the support and efforts of the student-athletes, coaches, faculty, and administration. Also, Jody is the Director for the Louisiana Addiction Technology Transfer Center at NSU. He has served on the National Addiction Technology Transfer Center’s (ATTC) - Practice and National Leadership Institute Committee. In addition, he has coordinated five nationally recog-nized leadership institutes for Louisiana, Texas and New Mexico and a member of the National ATTC Leadership Directors Committee. Recently, he was appointed to the NAADAC - National Addiction Studies & Standards Collaborative Committee. This past year, Jody was selected to serve on the United States Health and Human Services – Substance Abuse & Mental Health Service Administration Expert Panel concerning workforce issues. Jody’s married to his wife, Veronica (Roni), an avid runner, and daughter Roxy is a senior co-captain on the varsity cheerleading squad and Lady Tiger basketball team at St. Mary’s School. All are devoted Demon fans!

Dustin Eubanks is in his 13th year in the NSU athletic de-partment and his 12th year at the helm of the compliance duties, keeping all athletic personnel current and in accordance with NCAA and Southland Conference guidelines. A 1996 education graduate of Northwestern, the 38-year-old avid

fan of all teams that hail from Pittsburgh seized an opportunity to serve as a graduate as-sistant in the sports information department at Northwestern while beginning the pursuit of his master’s degree in health and physical education (concentration in sports administration), which he obtained in May of 2003, and was impressive enough to earn a promotion to full-time status in November 1998. Eubanks is married to the former Dawn Hornsby of Branch and the couple has two daugh-ters, Emilie (16) and Taylor Nicole (5). The sisters share the same birthdate. Dustin and Dawn, who is the Associate Director of Financial Aid at NSU, will celebrated their eighth wedding anniversary this summer. Roxanne Freeman began working at NSU in 1983 as an

accounting clerk in business affairs. She transferred to the athletic department as football/baseball/track secretary and served under Sam Goodwin, Leon Johnson and several baseball coaches for eight seasons before graduating with a B.S. in accounting in May 1995.

He also played an instrumental part in landing Jeep as the Title Sponsor of the annual Army/Navy Football game. Army Athletics increased corporate sponsorships, tickets and overall attendance under Garzarelli’s watch.

NDemon Baseball History • Demon Baseball History • Demon Baseball History • Demon Baseball History

Demon BaseBall. . . a hiT since 1912 Northwestern State has established itself as one of the premier baseball programs in the Southland Conference, in the state of Louisiana, and in America as well. The Demons have been members of the SLC for only 17 years, but in that time they have won nine conference championships and been to the NCAA Regionals twice. The Demons became only the third school in SLC history to win three straight titles (1993-95). Trinity University accomplished the feat in 1964-66, while Lamar University matched that effort 10 years later. Leading the way for Northwestern is third-year head coach Jon Paul Davis. Davis is only the 10th coach in Demon baseball history, which is remarkable considering Northwestern has been playing organized baseball for over 90 years. Northwestern dropped intercollegiate baseball in the 1930’s, but reinstated it in 1940 and has since built a strong program. However, it was not until the Demons joined the SLC in 1988 that they truly began to flourish. A Northwestern player has been named to the SLC first team 36 times. The Demons have also boasted the Coach of the Year seven times, Hitter of the Year twice, Pitcher of the year four times, Player of the Year four times and Newcomer of the Year seven times. Five All-Americans have also donned the Demon uniform. The first was Danny Turner who earned the honor in 1967 when the Demons were still NAIA. Darryl Woods was named NCAA and NAIA All-American in 1974 when he belted a Demon record 19 home runs on the season. Demon outfielder Terry Joseph was named to the GTE Academic All-America team in 1993 and earned the honor again in 1995. Pitcher Reggie Gatewood was named to the Na-tional Collegiate Baseball Writers Association second team in 1994 after posting an 11-3 record with a 2.14 ERA. Shortstop Ryan Anholt was the fifth All-American in Demon baseball history. The junior from Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan was a third-team selection by the American Baseball Coaches Association in 1998. For the season, he batted .417 with 15 home runs and 71 RBIs. Northwestern has been able to participate in post-season play as well. In 1991 the De-mons received an at-large bid to the NCAA South II Regional in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. The Demons lost to eventual National Champion Louisiana State 13-2, before being edged by USL 11-7. Northwestern’s 45-15 record was enough to earn an at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament in 1994. The Demons travelled to Stillwater, Oklahoma, for the Midwest I Regionals. Perennial power Cal State Fullerton would defeat Northwestern 11-3 in Game 1. In Game 2, Northwestern and NSU All-American Reggie Gatewood would overpower Illinois State 8-2 to win its first and only NCAA Regional game. Northwestern would then lose a heartbreaking 14-9 game to Mem-phis and bow out of the double elimination tournament. Northwestern’s 45 wins in 1994 were the most in school history. In 1996, the Demons beat the National Champion LSU Tigers twice in Alex Box Stadium and won their sixth conference title in the 1990’s in 1998. The Demons also reached the 40-win plateau for the fourth time in the 1990’s in 1998. A 38-21 campaign in 1999, including wins over LSU and UCLA, ended a “decade of excel-lence”, one which found the Demons as one of the elite teams in the nation. Northwestern’s .658 winning percentage during the decade ranks 23rd among all Division I teams, while its six conference championships is second only to Wichita State. Success continued in 2001 as the Demons won their seventh conference title and de-feated in-state rival LSU, 10-8, before a record-breaking 4,214 fans watching at Brown-Stroud Field. The 2002 season brought the Demons their eighth conference title after going 43-17 under first-year head coach Mitch Gaspard. The Demons cracked the top-25 for the first time in school history when they were ranked 23rd by Collegiate Baseball in 2002. The Demons blew through the 2005 SLC season, winning a record 22 games while post-ing the largest margin of separation in league history with their 5-game lead over the second place team. The 2005 team also stayed ranked in the nation’s top 35 for most of the season while earning an at-large bid to the NCAA Baton Rouge Regional where they finished third with a 1-2 record.

Northwestern State’s first All-American baseball player, winning that honor in 1967. Turner came to Northwestern from Fair Park High School in Shreveport. He won the 1967 Gulf Star Conference batting title as he hit .411 during the regular season and .443 in conference games. Turner played for the 1967 GSC championship team that made the NCAA Midwest Regional. 1967 sta-

tistics - 37 hits in 90 at bats, 27 runs batted in , 4 triples, 5 doubles, and 1 home run, 53 total bases.

Northwestern’s second All-American selection from New Orleans Redemp-torist High School, earned All-American honors during the 1974 season. Woods set an NCAA home run record with 18 in 38 games. He hit one in the NAIA play-offs but only regular season stats count towards a record. Woods was enshrined in the “N” Club Hall of Fame in 1992. 1974 statistics - .376 batting average, 52

RBI, 105 total bases, .840 slugging average and a .984 fielding average.

Northwestern’s first Academic All-American selection from Marrerro Archbishop Shaw High School, Joseph finished as the all-time leader in 10 offensive cat-egories, including runs scored (231), hits (225), doubles (45), triples (16) and stolen bases (100). He is one of only 12 players in Southland Conference his-tory to earn first-team honors three straight years. Joseph was named SLC and

Louisiana Player of the Year as a senior and was a 13th round draft choice of the Chicago Cubs.

Reggie Gatewood was named to the National Collegiate Baseball Writ-ers Association second-team after guiding Northwestern to their second NCAA Regional appearance. The Mabelvale, Ark., native finished the season 11-3 with a 2.14 ERA. He completed 11 of the 14 games he started and led the team with 101 innings pitched. Gatewood is tied with Eric Barkley for most career shutouts

at six and ranks third in wins (21), fourth in winning percentage (.807, 21-5) and fourth in ERA (2.56).

Shortstop Ryan Anholt is the fifth Northwestern State All-American base-ball player. The sweet-swinging left hander from Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan was a third-team selection by the American Baseball Coaches Association after a solid season in 1998. In 1999, Anholt proved his talent in the classroom, as well as on the field, as he was a third team selection on the prestigious GTE

Academic All-America Team. Along with his All-American selections, Anholt was selected Southland Conference Player of the Year, SLC Newcomer of the Year, first team All-Louisiana, and first team All-Region (South Central) after the 1998 season. He finished his career at NSU with a .368 batting average, the second highest in the history of the program.

Bobby Barbier became Northwestern State’s eighth student-athlete to garner academic All-American honors when he was selected to the CoSIDA Aca-demic All-America Third Team in 2004. Graduated in 2006 with a Bachelors in Health and Human Performance.

Mike Jaworski joined an elite list of Demon baseball players in May when he was named to the 2008 ESPN the Magazine Academic All-America Team, earning second-team honors in the university division released by the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA). Jaworski received his bach-elor’s degree in business administration in the spring of 2007.

Led by Mitch Gaspard in his first of six seasons as head coach of Northwestern State, the Demons posted a 43-17 record and won its eight Southland Conference title in 12 seasons. Senior pitcher O.J. King was named the league’s Pitcher of the Year after compiling an 8-4 record and a 2.63 ERA. Also named to the first team All-SLC along with King were outfielder Brad Hanson (.368, 7 HR, 46 RBI) and designated hitter Anatole Vincent (.361, 11 HR, 60 RBI). Outfielder Jeramie Hale and pitcher Jason Slanina earned third team honors while pitchers Casey Johnson and Zach Sanches along with infielders David Quattrociocchi and Tyler Durham garnered honorable mention honors. The team broke seven school season batting records while two individual pitchers records were broken. After falling 5-4 in 10 innings to Lamar in the conference tournament championship game, the Demons were denied an at-large bid to the 2002 NCAA Regionals despite a 43-17 record. The team also set the school’s second longest winning streak, that being 16 games, from February 22 to March 21.
