BIG 12 CONFERENCE – STRENGTH AND SUCCESSThe Big 12 and its member institutions are committed to a competitive environment where sportsmanship and fair play take center stage. Whether on the fi eld, in the classroom, or within the community, the student-athletes, administrators, coaches and game offi cials of the Big 12 support the highest ideals in sportsmanship.

National academic accolades have always been strong in the Big 12. Danielle Robinson (Oklahoma) and Sam Acho (Texas) were selected to receive Today’s Top VIII Awards – one of the NCAA’s top honors. It recognizes student-athletes who completed their athletic eligibility during 2010-11 for success on the fi elds and courts, in the classroom and in the community. In the last two seasons, three student-athletes were recipients of the NCAA Elite 89 Award. That honor showcases individuals who have reached the pinnacle of competition at the national championship level, while also achieving the highest academic standard among their peers.

In its short history, the Big 12 has had 537 Academic All-America recipients, averaging more than 30 each season. Big 12 student-athletes have shown commitment to their studies by earning numerous individual academic recognitions. Nine times in the past eight years a league athlete has garnered the top academic honor for their respective sport. The Big 12 had plenty of success overall in the classroom the last four years, as the Conference boasted 80 student-athletes earning Capital One/CoSIDA Academic All-America recognition through the fall of 2012.

The Big 12 can take pride in other stories that combine on and off the fi eld success. Patience Knight (Texas Tech) was the recipient of the Honda Inspiration Award in 2008, given to an outstanding female college athlete who overcomes adversity to excel in her sport. She was diagnosed with a cancerous tumor in 2007, but rebounded to win All-America honors at the NCAA Indoor Track & Field Championships. Oklahoma State women’s basketball was the inaugural recipient of the “Together We R” Team Award in 2012, recognizing programs that have strived to succeed in the face of adversity. Following a devastating tornado south of Oklahoma City just before the Big 12 Baseball Championship in 2013, several league baseball teams along with other student-athletes, coaches and former Conference players contributed help in a variety of ways. Plus, the Conference contributed $200,000 to the relief efforts.

Competitive excellence, scholarship and sportsmanship are all equal components of the Big 12 philosophy. All-Big 12 teams and Academic All-Big 12 squads are recognized for each sport at the end of their respective seasons. At the end of each academic year, the Conference honors its top male and female student-athletes with the Big 12 Athlete of the Year and Big 12 Sportsperson of the Year awards.

Institutions can also nominate student-athletes for the prestigious Dr. Prentice Gautt Postgraduate Scholarships. A total of 313 scholars have received near $2.2 million in postgraduate fi nancial aid through the fi rst 17 years of the program.

The Big 12 sponsors 23 sports. Men’s squads include baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, indoor track & fi eld, outdoor track & fi eld, swimming & diving, tennis and wrestling. Women’s teams are fi elded in basketball, cross country, equestrian, golf, gymnastics, indoor track & fi eld, outdoor track & fi eld, rowing, soccer, softball, swimming & diving, tennis and volleyball.

Big 12 institutions create a league that encompasses fi ve states and nearly 37 million people. More than 4,200 student-athletes from across the United States and around the World compete annually in the sports sponsored by the Conference.

The Conference conducts postseason championships for 20 of its 23 sports. Each championship helps to determine teams and/or individuals that will represent the Conference in national postseason competition. The winner of the Big 12 football regular season championship earns the league’s berth into the Bowl Championship Series.

In its fi rst 17 years, the Conference has distributed more than $1.8 billion to its member institutions. The conference offi ce is headquartered in Irving, Texas.

The Big 12 enters its 18th year as it continues to promote the strength and success of one of the nation’s premier athletic conferences under the direction of second-year commissioner Bob Bowlsby.

TCU and West Virginia joined the league on July 1, 2012 and became the Big 12’s fi rst additions since inception, joining Baylor, Iowa State, Kansas, Kansas State, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Texas and Texas Tech.

With 10 members, the Big 12 remains as the only major conference in the nation to determine its champions in all sports directly on the fi eld of play with a full round-robin schedule.

The Conference’s hard work ethic and strong values have translated to enormous success in its fi rst 17 years. Since it began competition in 1996-97, the league can boast of 52 NCAA team titles and 537 individual national championships.

The trophy case added more hardware in 2012-13 as Texas won the NCAA Championship in women’s volleyball and the Oklahoma State men’s cross country team captured its third national title in the last four seasons. Oklahoma State won the Western crown in equestrian while Oklahoma became one of just fi ve programs to capture multiple national championships in softball. The year ended with Kansas hoisting its fi rst NCAA trophy in women’s outdoor track and fi eld. Additionally, the Big 12 picked up 20 individual national titles.

Several other sports also made strong national showings a year ago. Big 12 football sent a national-record 90 percent of its teams to bowl games. Women’s basketball claimed the top position in conference RPI for the sixth consecutive season and was the only league to place 80 percent of its teams in postseason play and 70 percent in the NCAA Championship. Baylor won the Big 12’s fi rst men’s basketball NIT title. Kansas indoor track & fi eld, Oklahoma women’s gymnastics and Oklahoma State wrestling fi nished as runner-up in their respective national championships. Additionally, Texas joined Oklahoma in the Softball College World Series while K-State and Oklahoma competed in baseball Super Regionals.

Individually, Baylor center Brittney Griner earned consensus women’s basketball national player of the year for the second season. Oklahoma State’s Marcus Smart was named National Freshman of the Year by two different outlets, while Jeff Withey of Kansas was selected the National Association of Basketball Coaches Defensive Player of the Year. Texas volleyball head coach Jerritt Elliott received American Volleyball Coaches Association Coach of the Year honors.

Oklahoma pitcher Keilani Ricketts repeated as the USA Softball Collegiate Player of the Year, giving the Big 12 two of the three all-time multiple winners as former Texas player Cat Osterman earned the award three times. Ricketts also claimed the Honda Award for softball for the second consecutive season and the Honda Cup, given to the nation’s top female collegiate athlete by the Collegiate Women’s Sports Awards. Kansas track & fi eld head coach Stanley Redwine and assistant coach Wayne Pate each earned national accolades as the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) awarded the two with outdoor coach of the year honors.

The Big 12 lays claim to fi ve Heisman Trophy winners since 1996 and has had a fi nalist in 12 of its 17 seasons – the most of any league. Seventeen athletes have earned major individual awards in football in the past fi ve campaigns. Overall, more than 1,400 student-athletes have earned All-America recognition in the past fi ve years alone.

Through its fi rst 17 years, the Big 12 has claimed a team national championship in 16 of the sports it sponsors. The Conference ranks second with seven appearances in the BCS National Championship Game and is second with 96 football consensus All-America selections in that time. League squads combined to lead the nation in women’s basketball attendance 13 consecutive years and the Big 12 is the only conference to surpass the one-million mark in season attendance – doing so six times. In men’s basketball, the league is the only conference in the nation where every coach has guided a team to the NCAA Tournament, including six coaches that have led teams to the Final Four. During the last nine years a total of 31 NCAA trophies have been hoisted by Big 12 institutions, with at least one national crown won in all but one year for the Conference, including 16 consecutive seasons.

Regina Everett Austin Anderson

He represented the NCAA as one of two voting members on the USOC. In 2002, President George W. Bush chose Bowlsby to be a member of the Commission on Opportunities in Athletics.

Bowlsby has previously served as president of the NCAA Division I-A Athletics Directors’ Association, chair of the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Committee (2003-04, ’04-05) and chaired the NCAA Management Council. In addition, he has also chaired the NCAA Wrestling Committee, served on NCAA committees on Financial Aid and Amateurism, the Special Committee to Review Amateurism Issues and the Special Committee to Review Financial Conditions in Athletics.

The National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA) named Bowlsby in 2001-02 as Central Region Athletic Director of the Year and Sports Business Journal selected him from the four regional award winners as the National Athletics

Director of the Year. The award highlights the efforts of the athletic directors for their commitment and positive contributions to campuses and their surrounding communities.

Before his stint overseeing the Hawkeye athletic department he served in the same role for seven years at the University of Northern Iowa. A native of Waterloo, Iowa, Bowlsby was named to that post in 1984. He was previously in the role of Assistant Athletic Director for Facilities at the school.

Bowlsby earned his bachelor’s degree from Moorhead State University (Minnesota) in 1975 and his master’s degree from the University of Iowa in 1978. In February 2013, he was named to the NCAA 40th Anniversary Tribute Team, which recognizes the 40th anniversary of NCAA Division II competition. He was a four-year letterwinner in wrestling at MSUM and served as captain during his senior year when he won an NSIC title. Bowlsby was inducted into the Dragon Sports Hall of Fame in 1998.

Born on January 10, 1952, Bowlsby is married with four children and two grandchildren.

BIG 12 STAFF

Bob Bowlsby, one of the most respected athletic administrators in the nation, was named the fourth full-time Commissioner of the Big 12 Conference on May 4, 2012. The hire was praised throughout college athletics circles as yet another step in the continuing strength and stability of the Big 12.

In his fi rst year with the Conference, Bowlsby secured one of the most lucrative television deals in college athletics and fi nalized the Champions Bowl, a partnership with the Southeastern Conference. He has also worked to confi rm the league’s other bowl partnerships, giving the Big 12 some of the premiere postseason destinations in college football.

Bowlsby has also played a key role in the formation of the College Football Playoff that will begin in 2014-15, the fi rst postseason playoff in the history of the sport. He has worked to improve scheduling, including an agreement to stage the fi rst Big 12/SEC Challenge in men’s basketball in 2013-14.

The fi rst year for Bowlsby saw three more national championships added to the Big 12 trophy case while 12 individuals earned NCAA crowns. Three additional conference squads were runner-ups in NCAA competition.

Prior to his role at the Big 12, Bowlsby spent six years directing a Stanford University athletics department that sponsors 35 varsity sports and claimed an unprecedented 17 consecutive Learfi eld Sports Directors Cups, emblematic of the top overall athletics program in the country. The department maintained an annual budget of $75 million.

Bowlsby arrived at Stanford after a 15-year stint as the chief administrator for the University of Iowa Department of Athletics. In his fi nal four years, he guided and supervised the merger of the Hawkeye men’s and women’s athletic departments that included 24 varsity sports.

Throughout his career, Bowlsby has emerged as a national leader in intercollegiate and amateur athletics. He was appointed to the United States Olympic Committee Board of Directors in 2007 and will complete that term at the 2014 Winter Olympiad in Sochi, Russia.

(a) If two teams are tied, the winner of the game between the two tied teams shall be the representative.(b) If three or more teams are tied, steps 1 through 4 will be followed until a determination is made. Once a team has been eliminated from a multi-team comparison, it is dropped from further comparisons. If only two teams remain tied after any step, the winner of the game between the two tied teams shall be the representative. 1. The records of the three teams will be compared against each other 2. The records of the three teams will be compared against the next highest placed teams in the conference 3. The highest ranked team in the fi rst Bowl Championship Series Poll following the completion of Big 12 regular season conference play shall be the representative, unless the two highest ranked tied teams are ranked within one spot of the other in the BCS poll. In this case, the head-to-head results of the top two highest ranked tied teams shall determine the representative in the Bowl Championship Series. 4. The representative will be chosen by draw.

Big 12 Conference Sportsmanship StatementThe member institutions of the Big 12 Conference are committed to competition in an arena where sportsmanship and the sense of fair play take center stage. Whether on the fi eld, within the community or in the classroom, those who make up the Big 12 -- its administrators, coaches, game offi cials, and student-athletes -- support the highest ideals in sportsmanship.

At the heart of sportsmanship is the commitment of the institutions towards respect for the opposition and those offi ciating contests in the 23 sports sponsored by the Big 12. It is with a sense of fair play that a true sporting demeanor in the spirit of intercollegiate competition can be created and maintained with a total regard for the welfare of student-athletes, coaches, support personnel and spectators.

Sportsmanship on the fi eld of play is governed by Conference rules and guidelines, as well as those established under the NCAA and amateur organizations. It is the responsibility of game offi cials and administrators to see to strict adherence to these guidelines. The behavior of spectators is managed by event personnel, who are encouraged to deal with interference or abuse of appropriate sporting behavior in the strictest of methods.

The Big 12 Conference and its member institutions appreciate the support of the majority of fans who wish to create an atmosphere of competition that allows the participants to showcase the game and their respective skills.
