2011-12SOUTHLANDCONFERENCEBASKETBALL 2011-12SOUTHLANDCONFERENCEBASKETBALL
In an era of considerable change in intercollegiate athletics, the Southland Conference continues to be a model of innovation, stability and consistent achievement as it celebrates the academic and athletic accomplishments of its member institutions.
What began as a small gathering of college administrators nearly 50 years ago, the Southland Conference has transformed itself into a dynamic and respected consortium of 12 member universities in three states. Beginning with a historic meeting of five institutions in Dallas on March 15, 1963, that included current members Lamar University (then Lamar State College of Technology) and the University of Texas at Arlington (then Arlington State College), the Southland Conference set on an extraordinary course that has proven successful well into its fifth decade of existence.
On July 1, 2006, the Southland Conference commemorated another milestone as the league membership reached 12, marking the largest configuration ever for the organization. The addition of the University of Central Arkansas and Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi expanded the Southland into the Little Rock, Ark., metro area and into the eighth largest city in Texas. Central Arkansas and A&M-Corpus Christi enhanced the Conference in innumerable ways, including athletic and academic successes, strong and principled leadership, and strong fan support and media coverage.
In addition to its two newest members, the Southland Conference membership also consists of Lamar University, McNeese State University, Nicholls State University, Northwestern State University, Sam Houston State University, Southeastern Louisiana University, Stephen F. Austin State University, the University of Texas at Arlington, the University of Texas at San Antonio, and Texas State University-San Marcos.
All told, the revised membership of the Southland encompasses more than 180,000 current students and an alumni base of approximately 920,000. Famous alums from Southland Conference schools include former President Lyndon B. Johnson (Texas State), former CBS news anchor Dan Rather (Sam
Houston State), retired U.S. Central Command General Tommy Franks (UT Arlington), NBA executive Joe Dumars (McNeese State), ABC news anchor Robin Roberts (Southeastern Louisiana), country music star George Strait (Texas State), Major League Baseball stars Hunter Pence (UT Arlington), Kevin Millar (Lamar) and Ben Broussard (McNeese State), NBA legend Scottie Pippen (Central Arkansas) and actor Lou Diamond Phillips (UT Arlington).
The cities of the Southland are diverse and progressive, ranging from international business and cultural centers such as the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex, San Antonio and the New Orleans area, to the historical cities of Nacogdoches, Texas, and Natchitoches, La., to the home of the modern oil boom, Beaumont, Texas, to the unique Cajun French cultures found in the Louisiana cities of Thibodaux and Lake Charles. Southland Conference institutions also draw large numbers of students from the metropolitan areas of Houston, Little Rock, Baton Rouge, Austin, and Shreveport.
The Southland sponsors 17 championship sports, all at the NCAA Division I level. The eight men’s sports include baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, tennis, and indoor and outdoor track and field. The women compete for nine championships in basketball, cross country, golf, soccer, softball, tennis, indoor and outdoor track and field, and volleyball. The conference earns automatic qualification to NCAA championships in baseball, men’s and women’s basketball, men’s and women’s cross country, football, men’s and women’s golf, women’s soccer, softball, men’s and women’s tennis, and volleyball.
Continuing its tradition of innovation, the league launched the Southland Conference Television Network in the fall of 2008 and has already broadcast nearly 100 events. The network is expanding its reach to roughly 10 million households throughout Texas, Louisiana and Arkansas in 2011-12. In its first three years, the regional network has received recognition for its work. It received a national honorable mention award at the College Sports Media Award at the College Sports Video Summit in
THISISTHESOUTHLANDCONFERENCEAtlanta in June 2011 for its production of the 2010 Stephen F. Austin vs. Sam Houston State football game in the category of professional live event, competing with the likes of ESPN, Turner Sports, YES Network and other conference networks, including the Big Ten and Mountain West. In the summer of 2010, the network was recognized for the best live game or event in its category for the production of the 2009 McNeese State vs. Stephen F. Austin football game. The conference network has also collected four prestigious Telly Awards, including this past summer when the conference won a Silver Telly Award for its promotion of the 2011 Southland Conference basketball tournament.
In January 2011, the Southland Conference, in conjunction with the city of Frisco, Texas and Hunt Sports Group, played host to the NCAA Division I Football Championship Game in Frisco, which has been home to the conference office since 2006. The game will be played at Frisco’s Pizza Hut Park for at least the next two seasons. Frisco was named the fastest growing city in the nation in 2010.
Southland Conference football ranks among the best Football Championship Subdivision leagues in the nation, and enjoys an annual expectation of competing for the national championship with multiple teams advancing to the NCAA playoffs each year. In 2002 and 2003, McNeese State finished the regular season ranked No. 1 in the nation, and advanced to the 2002 national championship contest, the sixth such title game appearance since the league joined the Football Championship Subdivision (formerly I-AA) in 1982. All told, Southland teams have played in 93 Division I playoff games in 29 years, winning 43 of the contests.
Historically, the Southland’s successful football heritage has sustained itself through numerous membership and classification changes. Originally an NAIA conference, the Southland joined the NCAA College Division in 1968. The College Division was re-named NCAA Division II in 1973, and the league played two seasons in that class, before joining Division I in 1975. The Southland was an NCAA Division I-A league from 1978-81, before joining the ranks

of FCS in 1982, its home ever since. During its tenure as a Division I-A conference,
the Southland Conference was instrumental in the startup of the Independence Bowl in 1976. The Southland representative served as the host team of the bowl until 1980, compiling a 2-3 record in those contests.
The conference can lay claim to five national championships, including College Division championships through former members Arkansas State (1970, UPI) and Louisiana Tech (1972, National Football Foundation). Louisiana Tech also won the first NCAA-sanctioned national title, winning the Division II playoffs in 1973. Tech followed that with the UPI’s Division II national championship in 1974. Louisiana-Monroe won the 1987 national championship.
McNeese State, which has made 14 appearances in the national playoffs, played in the 1997 and 2002 NCAA Division I Championship games, while Stephen F. Austin played in the 1989 title game and has six playoff appearances, including each of the last two seasons. Northwestern State has played in the playoffs six times, and advanced to the semifinals in 1998, while Sam Houston State has earned four trips to the postseason, including the semifinals in 2004. Nicholls State has participated three times in the playoffs. On four occasions, the Southland has placed three teams in the national 16-team playoffs. Five of the eight current football-playing members have qualified for the FCS playoffs.
The Southland has produced 156 first-team football All-Americans during its history and in 2010, Stephen F. Austin quarterback Jeremy Moses became the first player in Southland history to receive the Walter Payton Award, which is presented annually to the most outstanding football player at the FCS level.
The Southland is one of three FCS conferences with at least 200 selections (204) in the National Football League draft. The league also ranks third in the FCS with 24 players taken in the draft since 2000 and has 18 former players on NFL rosters heading into the 2011 season.
The Southland Conference has also sent such talent to the professional ranks as Buffalo’s Terrence McGee (Northwestern State) and
Felton Huggins (Southeastern Louisiana), Minnesota’s Rhett Bomar (Sam Houston State) and Fred Evans (Texas State), Jacksonville’s Bryan Smith (McNeese State) and Larry Hart (Central Arkansas), Tennessee’s Jacob Ford (Central Arkansas), Baltimore’s Lardarius Webb (Nicholls State), Seattle’s Dominique Edison (Stephen F. Austin) and Green Bay’s Antonio Robinson (Nicholls State), who became the Southland’s 24th player to win a Super Bowl when the Packers beat Pittsburgh in Super Bowl XLV in Arlington in 2011.
Among the former NFL stars from the Southland include Fred Dean, who was inducted to the Professional Football Hall of Fame in 2008 to become the first former Southland Conference player to earn induction in Canton. Other great NFL players from the Southland include Super Bowl XXIX quarterback Stan Humphries, Bill Bergey, Mike Barber, Fred Barnett, Bubby Brister, Ray Brown, Roger Carr, Larry Centers, Bruce Collie, Jackie Harris, Buford Jordan, Tim McKyer, Kavika Pittman, Billy Ryckman, Rickey Sanders, Eugene Seale, Rafael Septien, Terrance Shaw, Marcus Spears, Pat Tilley and Marvin Upshaw.
The Southland Conference has also seen its share of great coaches during its history in Maxie Lambright, Ernie Duplechin, Sam Goodwin, Jack Doland, Bennie Ellender, Bobby Keasler, Larry Lacewell, Bill Davidson, Dennis Franchione, Pat Collins, and Ron Randleman.
In addition to football, the Southland Conference can point to a number of accomplishments in all sports.
Men’s basketball has experienced a tremendous amount of success during the Southland’s 45-plus years. The league has sent two teams to the NCAA Sweet Sixteen, as well as a squad to the NIT Final Four. Basketball stars Karl Malone, Joe Dumars, Jeff Foster, Dwight “Bo” Lamar, Andrew Toney, Devin Brown, and Mike Oliver played in the Southland Conference. In 2006, Northwestern State, playing as the No. 14 seed in the NCAA tournament, defeated No. 3 seed Iowa, 64-63, in first-round action. The Southland took another step forward in 2011. The league saw two teams reach the postseason (UTSA in the NCAA tournament and McNeese
State in the NIT) for the second time since 2008 and enjoyed its first win in the NCAA tournament since 2006.
Coaches such as Billy Tubbs, Mike Vining, Scotty Robertson, Jack Martin, Andy Russo, Bobby Paschal and Pat Foster have led teams in the Southland.
In women’s basketball, the Southland also has its share of tradition with Louisiana-Monroe advancing to the 1985 NCAA Women’s Final Four, and Stephen F. Austin sustaining itself as one of the most successful programs in the history of the sport. In 2008, the Ladyjacks became the eighth program in NCAA Division I history to record more than 800 wins.
In 2011, three Southland teams reached the postseason for the second consecutive season. McNeese State won its first conference tournament to earn its first NCAA tournament berth. Lamar was selected to play in its first WNIT and Central Arkansas played in its first Division I postseason tournament in the WBI. A Southland team has played in the WNIT 11 times, including each of the last five years. Women’s basketball all-stars have included Eun Jung Lee, Lisa Ingram, Portia Hill, Deneen Parker, Katrina Price, and Joskeen Garner, and coaches such as Gary Blair, Linda Sharp, James Smith and Linda Harper.
Baseball has emerged as a huge Southland Conference strength with the league earning numerous national rankings and NCAA tournament berths. The Southland consistently ranks among the top-10 conferences in the country and that was no different in 2011 when 50 of the league’s 150 non-conference victories came against the Big 12, Conference USA, Sun Belt and SEC. Major leaguers such as Ben Sheets, Micah Hoffpauir, Hunter Pence, David Segui, Brian Lawrence, Ben Broussard, Chuck Finley, Jerald Clark, and Terry Matthews once played in the Southland. Former UT Arlington shortstop, Trey Hillman, a three-time all-conference selection from 1983-85, was manager for the Kansas City Royals from the 2007-10 seasons and coached the American League in the 2009 MLB All-Star Game.

players from the Southland get drafted, matching its best draft in conference history (1995), to push the all-time draft total to 439 selections. In 2010, UT Arlington’s Michael Choice became the seventh Southland player taken in the first round, selected by Oakland with the 10th overall selection. He joins Ben Sheets (Louisiana-Monroe) as the league’s highest draft pick. The two are the only players in Southland history to be taken in the top 10 of the draft.
In 2011, Jim Gilligan became the first Southland coach to reach 1,200 career victories, ranking him sixth-best in the NCAA among active Division I coaches and 24th all-time. Gilligan joined the Southland Conference Hall of Honor in 2011. After 26 years as a college head coach, including the last five years at Sam Houston State, Mark Johnson, a Southwestern baseball legend, retired following the 2011 season. He was the 44th Division I coach to win more than 1,000 career games (1,043). He is among an impressive list of coaches who have patrolled Southland Conference dugouts, including Mike Bianco, John Cohen, Mitch Gaspard, Smoke Laval, Butch McBroom, Pat Patterson, Tony Robichaux, Dave Van Horn and Jim Wells.
Softball continues to enjoy success on a national level, annually beating at least one nationally ranked opponent since 1995. In 2011, the league had four wins against ranked opponents, including a win by Stephen F. Austin at No. 3 Texas. In the 2003 NCAA tournament, UT Arlington and Texas State enjoyed unprecedented success as each won two games in the national event. In 19 years of NCAA tournament competition the Southland has racked up 14 wins.
The Southland has a proud history in volleyball with UT Arlington representing the conference eight times in the NCAA tournament, advancing all the way to the NCAA Volleyball Final Four in 1989.
Track and field has also served as a proud asset for the Southland Conference as the league has produced numerous national champions and Olympic medalists. The Southland boasts 28 men and three women student-athletes who have won NCAA track and field national
championships, including Northwestern State’s Trecey Rew, who won the women’s discus in 2011, Texas A&M-Corpus Christi’s Shadrack Songok (10,000-meter run) in 2007 and 2008 and McNeese State’s Brad Gebauer (pole vault) in 2007. The league has also produced U.S. Olympic track and field medalists Earl Bell, Thomas Hill, Al Joyner and Charles Austin, Liudmila Litvinova, along with other Olympians. With the addition of five more All-Americans in 2011, the league continues to find national success in both indoor and outdoor track and field. In the indoor circuit, the Southland boasts 62 unique all-time All-Americans that have won a combined 11 national championships. Likewise, in the outdoor season, the league has seen 152 different All-Americans, including 123 men and 29 women, who have combined to win 21 national championships.
Golf has traditionally been a strong Southland sport as exemplified by Lamar men’s golfer Chris Stroud, who finished third individually at the 2003 NCAA National Championship and is a member of the PGA Tour. Both Stroud and former Southeastern Louisiana golfer Hugo Leon competed in the 2010 U.S. Open. The league has sent multiple teams into postseason play on numerous occasions, including in 2011 when three Southland teams – UT Arlington, Lamar, Southeastern Louisiana – competed in the NCAA tournament. Additionally, during the past three seasons the Southland has sent nine golfers to compete as individuals in regional play with five in 2009, three more in 2010 and one in 2011. Lamar won a pair of NCAA Division II national championships in 1967 and 1968, and also produced PGA player Ronnie Black.
In 2005, Lamar’s Dawie Van Der Walt finished fourth individually and Lamar tied for 12th place at the NCAA Men’s Golf Championship, before the Cardinals tied for ninth in 2006 and tied for third in 2007. Former Lamar golfer Casey Clendenon advanced to the semifinals of the U.S. Amateur in 2007.
Southland tennis has also experienced national prominence. UT Arlington All-American Andy Leber was the 2002 ITA/Ted Farnsworth National Senior Co-Player of the Year after a 43-3 record and earning the nation’s No. 2 ranking.
In women’s tennis, Southeastern Louisiana won 46 consecutive conference matches during a four-year period that began in 2005.
The conference has increased sponsorship and championship opportunities for female student-athletes in recent years, adding women’s golf and soccer as league sports.
The Southland Conference has repeatedly demonstrated its commitment to the academic and athletic success of its student-athletes. With the F.L. McDonald Postgraduate Scholarship Award, the league annually honors one male and one female scholar-athlete with a stipend for postgraduate study. The Scholar-Athlete Award is given to each institution’s male and female student-athlete with the highest grade-point average. The Steve McCarty Citizenship Award, initiated in 2005-06 and named after the former Stephen F. Austin athletic director, properly recognizes accomplishments off the court for a male and female student-athlete. Also, student-athletes with grade-point averages above 3.0 are honored on the Southland’s annual All-Academic teams and Commissioner’s Honor Roll. A record 953 student-athletes appeared on the honor roll following the 2011 spring semester.
While successful on the fields and courts, the Southland Conference has repeatedly demonstrated its commitment to the academic and athletic success of its student-athletes.
The conference continues to make great strides in the classroom. During the last five years, no other Division I conference has improved its Academic Progress Rate as well as the Southland Conference has. In the most recent year of data collection, 2009-10, the Southland ranked 10th among the 31 Division I leagues in men’s basketball APR. The academic progress the league has shown ultimately leads to higher graduation rates for our student-athletes.
In addition to providing expanding opportunities for student-athletes, the Southland Conference and its member institutions are very involved in various community outreach programs. Many of these programs provide positive life skills training such as academics, citizenship and leadership to school-aged students in Southland communities.

Tom Burnett was named the Southland Conference’s sixth commissioner on Dec. 23, 2002, and brought a diverse background in athletics administration experience at the conference and national levels. Now the second-longest tenured full-time commissioner in league history, Burnett is in his ninth year of service with the Southland, and has a conference administrative background reaching over two decades.
Burnett has helped to enhance the Southland’s membership, with addition of the University of Central Arkansas and Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi in July, 2006. The new membership gave the league 12 member institutions, the largest configuration in the conference’s 48-year history.
The league’s television exposure has expanded under his watch with the creation of the Southland Conference Television Network in 2008. This broadcast venture has since featured approximately 100 unique sports and promotional telecasts to a potential viewing audience of more than 13 million television households. The Southland also signed a multi-year agreement with the ESPN family of networks in 2010, and the league has had longstanding relationships with Fox Sports Net Southwest and Cox Sports Television.
He also recently led the successful community-wide effort to bring the 2011-13 NCAA Division I Football Championship Games to Frisco, Texas, as the Southland serves as the host conference for the national title contests at Pizza Hut
Park. A leading proponent for the Football Championship Subdivision, Burnett organized the first FCS Summit, a national gathering of athletic directors, commissioners, NCAA staff and other key football stakeholders held prior to the 2011 national championship game.
A former member of both the NCAA’s Division I Committee on Academic Performance and the Division I Football Academic Working Group, Burnett also served as the FCS Vice President for the Collegiate Commissioners Association (CCA) in 2007-08. He is also a member of the Board of Directors for NCAA Football, the organization that serves to improve, promote and protect college football for those who play, coach and support the game.
In 2004, Burnett also began the league’s renewed efforts to secure corporate sponsorships. Since then, the Southland has secured sponsorship agreements with State Farm Insurance, Capital One Bank, Toyota, American Airlines, Royal Purple Motor Oil, Best Western Hotels, O’Reilly Auto Parts, BellSouth, Aeropostale, Holiday Inn, Academy Sports and Outdoors, and Advantage Rent-A-Car.
He also initiated efforts to bring the Southland Conference basketball tournaments to a neutral site in the Houston area, giving the league a year-end celebration of the sport at a centralized location near much of the Southland’s largest alumni and student bases.
Prior to joining the Southland, Burnett spent nearly 11 years in a number of roles with the Sun Belt Conference, including stints as associate

TOMBURNETTand assistant commissioner, and director of communications. He also served two years on the staff of the American South Conference.
His previous responsibilities included championships administration, public and media relations, television production and negotiation, scheduling, marketing, NCAA championship and committee service, and football bowl experience.
While at the Sun Belt, Burnett worked in the development of football as a league-sponsored sport, and was an administrator with the New Orleans Bowl, which began in 2001. He also produced the Sun Belt’s television packages with ESPN Regional Television, which debuted in 2002. In addition, he has experience negotiating television agreements with regional sports networks such as Fox Sports Net, Comcast/Charter Sports Southeast and numerous local television stations and cable systems.
He also provided oversight of Sun Belt championship events and administered more than 100 league tournaments. In 2000, he began exclusively administering the Sun Belt’s men’s and women’s basketball tournaments, which grew from minimal financial successes into events that grossed the conference $1.2 million during a three-year period.
Burnett has also served in an administrative capacity with numerous NCAA events, including national championships in men’s and women’s basketball, track and field, baseball and volleyball.
He represented the Southland Conference on the NCAA Division I Management Council in 2004-05, and served on the Division I Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) Governance Committee from 2004-06. Burnett previously served on the NCAA Playing Rules Oversight Panel, and the NCAA Baseball Rules Committee.
Burnett, 47, is a native of Houston, Texas, and is a 1988 graduate of Louisiana Tech University, where he studied journalism and spent one year as the sports editor of the school’s student newspaper.
He and his wife Tracy, a native of Baton Rouge, La., are the parents of a son, Cole, and a daughter, Jesse.

As one of the nation’s newest and innovative broadcast opportunities, the award-winning Southland Conference Television Network became a reality in 2008 and has broadcast more than 100 events during its first three-plus years. The network has earned a College Sports Media Award (2009) and an honorable mention (2010) at the College Sports Video Summit in Atlanta as well as four prestigious Telly Awards.
The conference will feature 15 live basketball telecasts during the 2011-12 season. The entire package will be carried across the Southland’s network of affiliated television stations, plus online at SLC NOW. Select match-ups will air nationwide on ESPN Full Court.
“We’re very pleased to announce another season of outstanding basketball broadcasts,” Burnett said. “The Southland Network has provided welcome and compelling programming during the last three years, and the ‘in-house’ concept of our broadcast effort has been mimicked by other conferences as a unique and effective way to promote institutions and their student-athletes.”
The network will open its broadcast schedule Wednesday, Jan. 4, when the men’s team from Texas A&M-Corpus Christi plays host to Lamar. The second telecast will take the crew to Conway, as the Stephen F. Austin men face Central Arkansas Jan. 11.
The first women’s basketball broadcast of the season will emanate from the University Center in Hammond on Jan. 18, as the Southeastern Louisiana Lady Lions take on defending Southland Conference champion McNeese State.
Later, men’s basketball’s version of the “Battle of the Piney Woods” takes place on Jan. 25, when Stephen F. Austin hosts Sam Houston State. That’s followed by a visit to Northwestern State for a women’s game between the Lady Demons and 2011 WNIT participant Central Arkansas on Feb. 1.
Three consecutive men’s games then appear on the schedule: UT Arlington at Sam Houston State (Feb. 8), UTSA at McNeese State in a rematch of the 2011 Southland Conference Tournament championship game (Feb. 15) and Texas State at Southeastern Louisiana (Feb. 22).
The only Saturday game on the Southland Conference Television Network schedule is Feb. 25, when the Lamar women’s squad plays host Sam Houston State. The regular season schedule wraps up the following weekend with the men’s teams from Nicholls State and Northwestern State Feb. 29.
The network will carry the women’s and men’s semifinals of the Southland Conference tournament on Thursday, March 8. The broadcast schedule concludes with the women’s championship game on Friday, March 9.

On the strength of two regular-season team champi-onships and seven top-three finishes, UTSA claimed its second Southland Conference Commissioner’s Cup for the 2010-11 academic year.
UTSA compiled 142.5 points to edge last year’s Cup win-ner, Stephen F. Austin, by one point with 141.5 points. The Roadrunners won their first Cup in 2008 and have finished as the runnerup in four of the last five Cup standings. UTSA is one of four Southland universities to win at least two Commissioner’s Cups, joining Sam Houston State, UT Arlington and Texas State.
UTSA totaled 78.5 points to win their first outright women’s all-sports trophy in program history. The Road-runners finished in a first-place tie with former conference member Louisiana-Monroe in 1994. Since that time, UTSA has finished in the top four 12 times with four second-place scores.
The Roadrunners had 64 points to finish second in the men’s all-sports trophy standings behind Stephen F. Aus-tin, which totaled 69 points. UTSA, which won the men’s all-sports trophy in 2006 and 2008, has been one of the more consistent programs in the conference, finishing no less than third in each of the last eight seasons.
The UTSA women won their first golf championship and finished in the top five in five other sports, including second place in soccer and volleyball. The UTSA men won their sixth consecutive indoor track and field title and recorded a top-five finish in four other sports, including second place in tennis and outdoor track and field.
Stephen F. Austin, the 2010 Commissioner’s Cup win-ner, was one point shy of claiming a share of its second overall trophy in the last two seasons. SFA was equally impressive in 2011 as the men’s and women’s programs combined to win five conference championships. The men claimed titles in football and outdoor track and field and the women swept championships in cross country and both indoor and outdoor track and field.
Texas State (124), UT Arlington (121.5) and Sam Hous-ton State (119.5), came in third, fourth and fifth place, respectively, by a margin of less than five points. McNeese State (112.5) finished sixth, Lamar (110), was seventh and Texas A&M-Corpus Christi (89.5) finished in eighth place. Northwestern State (83.0), Central Arkansas (80.0), Southeastern Louisiana (80.0) and Nicholls (64.0) round out this year’s standings.
The Commissioner’s Cup is awarded annually to the top overall athletics program in the Southland Conference. Texas State leads all member institutions with four. In the 14-year history of the Commissioner’s Cup, UT Arlington and Sam Houston State each have three, UTSA now has two, and Northwestern State and Stephen F. Austin have one apiece.
The Southland Conference all-sports trophies are awarded annually for men’s and women’s competition based on a 12-point system for all conference sports. Point values are 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 and 1, pending place of finish. Regular-season standings are used for sports that have a conference tournament. The Commissioner’s Cup is awarded to the university compiling the highest combined total of men’s and women’s all-sports points.

The Southland Conference presents five academic accolades to recognize student-athletes within the league who demonstrate excellence in the classroom and superior athletic achievements on the field or court. These academic honors include the Commissioner’s Academic Honor Roll, the All-Academic teams, the Southland Conference Student-Athlete of the Year, the Southland Conference Scholar-Athlete awards and the F.L. McDonald Postgraduate Scholarship awards.
Commissioner’sAcademicHonorRollNow called the Commissioner’s Academic Honor Roll, the Southland
Conference acknowledges all participants in all sports sponsored by the league and its member institutions. The honor roll is released within 30 days at the conclusion of the fall and spring semesters, recognizing student-athletes who maintained a 3.0 or better grade-point average.
Student-athletes, nominated by their respective academic advisors, must have been eligible to compete in a Conference sport during the academic year in which the nomination occurs.
The honor roll was first dubbed Southland Conference All-Academic and then the Southland Conference Honor Roll. It changed for a third time to the Commissioner’s List, beginning with the 1996-97 season, before acquiring its current title in the 2003-04 academic year.
SouthlandConferenceAll-AcademicTeamsThe Southland Conference announces all-academic teams in all 17
championship sports to recognize those student-athletes who excel in the classroom and on the field or court.
Nominated by each institution’s athletic media relations director and selected by a voting contingent made up of sports information directors, head coaches and academic or compliance administrators, all-academic team members must have posted at least a cumulative 3.0 grade-point average, completed at least one full academic year at the member institution prior to the season in which the nomination occurs, and competed in a minimum of 50 percent of the sport’s contests during the most recently completed season.
Student-athletes receiving CoSIDA national academic honors are automatically named to the Southland all-academic first team. All-academic teams are announced in conjunction with the conference’s student-athlete of the year in each sport. One team shall be selected for cross country, indoor and outdoor track and field within 30 days following the outdoor championship.
SouthlandConferenceStudent-AthleteoftheYear
Established in the 2002-03 academic year, the conference honors one student-athlete from each of the 17 championship sports who achieves excellence in academics, athletics and community/campus service.
The student-athlete of the year, selected by the league’s awards committee, will have attained athletics achievement for at least two years at the nominating institution, possess at least a 3.20 cumulative grade-point average and demonstrated extracurricular service at his/her campus and/or community.
The recipient of the student-athlete of the year award is announced in conjunction with the all-academic teams in each sport.
SouthlandConferenceScholar-AthleteBeginning with the 1996-97 season, the conference annually recognizes
the outstanding male and female student-athletes from each of the league’s member institutions. Student-athletes must be a letterwinner with a minimum 3.20 cumulative grade-point average and have completed at least two years of intercollegiate competition at the school from which he/she was nominated. The student-athletes are selected by their respective institution administrators.
F.L.McDonaldPostgraduateScholarshipThe F.L. McDonald Postgraduate Scholarship is presented annually to
graduating male and female letterwinners with the highest cumulative grade-point averages during their enrollment at Southland member schools. The $2,500 scholarship must be applied to graduate study at an institution of the recipient’s choice.
The award was established in memory of Dr. F.L. McDonald in 1996-97, a former president of Lamar University and 1999 Southland Hall of Honor inductee. McDonald served as Lamar’s president in 1963 when the Southland Conference was established and is considered one of the league’s founding fathers.
Each member institution may nominate one male and one female student-athlete who meet the following criteria: a letterwinner in a Conference sport, be on track to graduate during the spring in which they are nominated or the subsequent summer, and plan to attend graduate school no later than the second fall following the receipt of the award.
The 2010-11 scholarships were presented by Toyota.

FRISCO,TEXAS
The City of Frisco is the fastest growing city in the country, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. Long considered a “fast growing community,” the City of Frisco achieved the title in 2010 when the U.S. Census Bureau announced Frisco’s population had grown from 33,714 in 2000 to more than 109,000 in 2010. This phenomenal growth is one reason why city leaders selected “Progress in Motion” as the city’s slogan.
Progress in Motion, which best describes Frisco’s spirit, compliments a brand that reflects Frisco’s century old roots. Established in 1902, Frisco was named for the St. Louis-San Francisco Railway which trekked through the then, small town. The brand first used to distinguish the historical rail line is now recognized throughout the U.S. as belonging to a city “making history,” as a result of its incredible growth and progres-sive practices.
Before being dubbed “the fastest growing city in the country,” Forbes.com awarded Frisco a place on its “Top 10 Best Places to Relocate” in 2009. Money Magazine listed Frisco among the “Top 100 Best Places to Live” in 2008.
Every day, more and more people are drawn to the City of Frisco for its emphasis on educa-tion, family and quality of life.
Increasing enrollment by 10-30 percent during the past 12 years, the Frisco Independent School District is the fastest growing school district in the nation. Currently, 37,306 students are served on 52 campuses by 5,000 staff members, making FISD among the largest single employers in the area. The Lewisville and Prosper Independent School Districts also serve Frisco. Together, these districts provide exceptional education environments. Higher education is also a priority in Frisco. Collin College, Dallas Baptist University, University of Dallas and Amberton University have campuses in Frisco.
Frisco’s comprehensive plan – or blue print for growth – was named “best in the state” in
2000 and again in 2006. The City of Frisco has been “building green” since 2001, when Frisco became the first city in the country to mandate the EPA’s Energy Star program as the standard for new home construction.
The Frisco Fire Department has achieved the highest rating awarded by the Insurance Services Office (ISO), which translates into cost savings for homeowners. More importantly, the ISO No. 1 rating means the City of Frisco fire services, as well as its water and communications systems, are of the highest quality. Frisco Fire Safety Town is the first of its kind in the U.S., hosting more than 142,000 “children of all ages” since opening in 2007.
Frisco is proud to claim one of the lowest crime rates in Collin and Denton Counties, a credit to our watchful citizens and nationally accredited Frisco Police Department. The Frisco Parks and Recreation Department was named “best in the state” by the Texas Recreation and Parks Society in 2007 and 2010.
The new Frisco Discovery Center houses the Frisco Art Gallery, Frisco Black Box Theatre and Sci Tech Discovery Center under one roof while the
nearby Frisco Heritage Museum invites visitors to experience history. Art lovers can experience more than 150 pieces of art on public display throughout the city.
Stonebriar Centre mall anchors eight million square feet of dining and retail offerings, which include IKEA and Sam Moon Trading Company. Ten hotels and the Frisco Conference Center offer visitors and conventioneers a “home away from home.”
Frisco has “can do” attitude and a reputation for creating unique, public/private partnerships resulting in first class sports and entertainment venues.
Frisco is home to the Frisco Roughriders, an affiliate of the Texas Rangers; the three-time national champion Texas Tornado, a junior league hockey team; and the Texas Legends, a member of the NBA D-League and the newest member of the Frisco sports family.
These teams play in state of the art venues, including the Dr Pepper Ballpark and the Dr Pepper Arena, which is also home to the Dal-las Stars’ headquarters and training facility. Fieldhouse USA is a 144,000 square foot indoor sports facility and World Olympic Gymnastics Academy, renowned for turning out Olympic champions Nastia Luikin and Carly Patterson, is headquartered in Frisco.
Pizza Hut Park is an innovative soccer specific complex featuring a 23,500- seat stadium, which is home to FC Dallas, of Major League Soccer, as well as 17 tournament grade fields. This world class facility hosts everything from high school to international sporting events, not to mention, A-list concerts. The NCAA Division I Football Championship Game touched down at Pizza Hut Park in 2011 and will be played here through at least the 2012 season.
The City of Frisco’s list of major accomplish-ments and developments span the past 10 years yet continue to grow with its population. Frisco is a community full modern day pioneers defining Progress in Motion.

McNeese State and UTSA Favored in East and West DivisionsMcNeese State and UTSA are the favorites to win the Southland Conference East and West Divisions, respectively, in the 2011-12 preseason coaches’ and sports information director’s polls. McNeese State received nine first-place votes both the coaches’ poll in the SID poll while UTSA received six first-place votes in the coaches’ poll and five in the SID poll. McNeese State returns 12 letterwinners from its most successful season in school history in 2010-11. The Cowgirls finished as the regular season and tournament champions and posted a 26-7 overall record and a 15-1 mark in conference play. The overall record ties the best NCAA turnaround from the previous season with the 2002 Valparaiso team. McNeese returns four of its top five scorers including first team all-conference performer Ashlyn Baggett and second team all-conference player Caitlyn Baggett. UTSA coach Rae Rippetoe-Blair returns eight letterwinners from last year’s program that finished first in the West Division with an 11-5 record in conference. Blair, who is one victory shy of 300 for her career and eight shy for 200 at UTSA, looks to capitalize on the return of her two all-conference players in Whitney York and Judy Jones, both of whom missed the 2010-11 season. York, who fell victim to a preseason injury a year ago, led the Roadrunners in scoring with 15.0 points per game in 2009-10. McNeese State defeated UTSA in the Southland Conference tournament semifinals on the Cowgirls way to clinching the conference’s automatic berth to the NCAA Tournament.
Eight All-Conference Selections Return for 2011-12 Season Eight players from last season’s All-Southland Conference teams return for the 2011-12 season, including four first-team selections and the reigning player of the year. Megan Herbert, a junior forward at Central Arkansas, earned first-team all conference accolades a season ago on her way to being named the conference player of the year. Also returning from the first-team are juniors Ashlyn Baggett, Britni Martin and Kalis Loyd. Ashlyn Baggett, whose twin sister Caitlyn earned preseason second-team honors, is a guard at McNeese State and helped lead the Cowgirls to their best season in history last year. Martin, a guard for Sam Houston State, and Loyd, a guard at Nicholls State, earned first team honors for the first time last year. Completing the preseason first-team all-conference selections is senior guard Tammara Marion from Stephen F. Austin. Leading the way on the second-team all-conference selections is Sequeena Thomas, a junior forward for Sam Houston State, and Caitlyn Baggett, a junior guard at McNeese State. Last season’s newcomer of the year Monique Whittaker, a Lamar forward, also earned a spot along with Nicholls State’s KK Babin, the 2010-11 freshman of the year. Completing the second team is Texas State junior Diamond Ford.
Southland Tournament Returns to Katy, Texas The Southland Conference will again travel to the Leonard E. Merrell Center in Katy, Texas for the league’s annual event. This year’s tournament will begin on Tuesday, March 6 as quarterfinal action begins with game one at noon. The seminfinals and finals, which will be televised by the Southland Conference Television Network, will take place on Thursday, March 8 and the championship game will be played Friday, March 9. The 2011-12 tournament will be the 13th in league history to be played at a neutral site. The tournament was played in Shreveport, La., from 1995-01 and was held in Houston in 2007 before moving to Katy in 2008.
Southland Women’s Basketball Sends Three to the Postseason For the second consecutive season, three Southland Conference women’s basketball programs received postseason invitations. McNeese State made its first appearance in the NCAA tournament, Lamar was invited to its first postseason Women’s National Invitational Tournament (WNIT) and Central Arkansas was selected to play in the Women’s Basketball Invitational (WBI). McNeese State received an automatic bid to the NCAA tournament after defeating Central Arkansas in the 2011 State Farm Southland Conference Basketball Tournament. The Cowgirls earned a No. 15 seed and faced second-seeded Texas A&M. Lamar received the Southland’s automatic bid into the WNIT after McNeese State advanced to the NCAA Tournament. The Lady Cardinal faced SEC opponent Arkansas in Fayetteville, Ark. Central Arkansas hosted Alabama-Birmingham in the opening round of the WBI for the school’s first Division I national postseason tournament.
Central Arkansas Transitioned Straight into Division I Postseason Play In its first season of Division I postseason eligiblity, Central Arkansas earned the invitation to play in the Women’s Basketball Invitational. The Sugar Bears hosted the eventual-WBI champion UAB in the opening round. Central Arkansas was one of three Southland programs with more than 20 wins last year and finished third in the league standings. The Sugar Bears look continue to improve this season with the return of the 2010-11 conference Player of the Year in Megan Herbert.
McNeese State Claims First Southland Conference Tournament Championship McNeese State capped off its remarkable turnaround from the 2009-10 season’s 7-22 mark with a 71-50 win over Central Arkansas that clinched the women’s tournament title for the Cowgirls along with an automatic bid to the NCAA tournament. McNeese used the first 6:19 of the second half to floor the Sugar Bears, who made their first trip to the championship game in their initial year of eligibility. Tournament Most Valuable Player Ashlyn Baggett keyed the decisive run, scoring nine of her game-high 23 points during a 17-5 run that turned a 37-26 halftime lead into a 54-31 advantage.

The Sugar Bears jumped to an early 6-4 lead behind consecutive treys from all-Tournament performer Desiree Rogers, but relinquished the edge for good when Baggett hit a 3-pointer at the 16:04 mark. Central Arkansas got within 18-14 with 9:40 left in the first half, but could not match baskets against a Cowgirls team that shot 57 percent from the field in the opening 20 minutes. Much of McNeese’s offensive success came from the defensive work against Southland player of the year Megan Herbert. Herbert, who had a combined 35 points and 24 rebounds in two prior meetings against the Cowgirls, was held to just 13 points and six rebounds before fouling out in the final three minutes. All-tournament member Caitlyn Baggett had 15 points, six assists and four rebounds while also helping hold Sugar Bears guards Rogers, Nakeia Guiden and Micah Rice to a combined 11 points. The all-tournament team consisted of McNeese State’s Ashlyn Bagget, Caitlyn Baggett and Kendra Wells, Central Arkansas’ Desiree’ Rogers and UTSA’s Ashleigh Franklin.
McNeese State Plays Texas A&M in First NCAA Tournament Appearance McNeese State’s record setting season came to an end with a 87-47 NCAA Tournament first round loss to Texas A&M. The Cowgirls ended the season 26-7. Caitlyn Baggett led the Cowgirls with 22 points, making 10-of-20 from the field and was 1-of-3 from three-point range. The Cowgirls struggled from the field from the get go and missed shots that would normally fall. McNeese struggled from behind the arc and made four of 17 attempts and was 5-of-10 from the free throw line. The Cowgirls were out rebounded 45-25 by the taller and quicker Aggie inside players. Texas A&M jumped out to an 8-0 run in the first four minutes of the game with six points coming off fast break points following Cowgirl misses on the offensive side. The Cowgirls got on the scoreboard on a layup by Martika Hull. Texas A&M then went on another 8-0 run to take a 16-2 lead with 12:11 left in the half.
Lamar Returns to the Postseason with a WNIT Invite The Lamar University women’s basketball team saw its hopes of a postseason title come to an end with a 91-65 loss to Arkansas in the first round of the WNIT on Thursday. Lamar couldn’t overcome a cold shooting touch in the first half. The Lady Cardinals were just 9-of-33 (27.3 percent) from the floor in the first half, including going just 2-of-13 (15.4 percent) from 3-point range as Arkansas raced out to a 43-22 lead at intermission. Lamar would get as close as 18 points in the second half, but the deficit was just too big to overcome. Lamar also had trouble overcoming Arkansas’ 59-37 rebounding advantage. Jenna Plumley, playing in her final game in a Lamar uniform, led the Lady Cardinals with 15 points and four assists. Kalis Loyd had 14 points, while Trashanna Smith, another senior playing her final game for Lamar, had 12 points, nine rebounds, four assists and two blocks. Despite the loss, it was still a successful season for the Lady Cardinals, who advanced to postseason play for the second year in a row. Lamar is 51-16 over the last two seasons, which the most wins in the history of the program over that time span.
Central Arkansas Hosts Opening Round of Inaugural Women’s Basketball Invitational In the school’s first-ever NCAA Division I postseason tournament game, a Central Arkansas women’s basketball record crowd of 2,953 came out to the Farris Center to watch the Sugar Bears take on UAB in the first round of the Women’s Basketball Invitational. Unfortunately, they did not get to celebrate a UCA victory. Despite not making a field goal in the last 8:30, the Sugar Bears trailed just one with 1:35 to play but couldn’t get over the hump in the final moments and fell 58-54 to the Blazers, bringing an end to their 2010-11 season. UAB jumped on the Sugar Bears early, taking a 12-3 lead, but UCA responded with a 17-5 run to take a 20-17 lead with eight minutes to go in the first half. The Sugar Bears stayed within five and trailed just 27-26 at the half. The Sugar Bears looked primed to take control of the game, going on a 12-4 run to start the second half, going up 38-31. With 8:58 remaining, UAB knocked down a 3-pointer to give the Blazers their first lead in 11 minutes. The Sugar Bears answered on a layup by Megan Herbert with 8:31 to go, making it 47-46 UCA on what would prove to be both the Sugar Bears’ final basket and final lead. Herbert had 16 points to lead three Sugar Bears in double figures, with Desiree Rogers and Nakeia Guiden each adding 10. The Sugar Bears ended their first year out of the Division I reclassification period with their second consecutive 21-win season, first Southland Conference tournament appearance and first D-I national postseason tournament appearance.
Southland Teams Play 26 Games Against Teams in 2011 Postseason All twelve Southland schools face non-conference opponents that participated in the 2011 postseason, including two games against the defending national champion Texas A&M Aggies. Lamar opens its season against the Aggies and McNeese State faces Texas A&M Dec. 30. The Lady Cardinals only face one team from last year’s NCAA’s but will face-off against four teams that took part in the WNIT. The Cowgirls, the defending Southland conference champions, play three more teams from the NCAA Tournament including UCLA, Houston and Baylor. Central Arkansas and UT Arlington both face two participants from the NCAA Tournament, while Sam Houston State, Northwestern State, Texas State and UTSA each play one opponent.

The Southland Conference has had its share of women’s basketball tradition, with Louisiana-Monroe advancing to the 1985 NCAA Women’s Final Four, and Stephen F. Austin sustaining itself as one of the most successful programs in the history of the sport as one of eight programs in the NCAA with over 800 wins.
Women’s basketball standouts have included Eun Jung Lee, Lisa Ingram, Portia Hill, Deneen Parker, Katrina Price and Joskeen Garner, and coaches such as Gary Blair, Sue Gunter, Linda Sharp, James Smith and Linda Harper. Blair and Gunter have both received honors as two of the NCAA’s all-time greatest coaches.
In the national polls, the league has also experienced success as Stephen F. Austin, which joined the Southland Conference in 1988, finished No. 19 in 1988, No. 11 in 1989, No. 6 in 1990, No. 14 in 1991, No. 4 in 1992, No. 12 in 1993, No. 19 in 1997 and No. 19 in 1998.
In addition, former member Louisiana-Monroe finished No. 13 in 1984 and No. 2 in 1985.
In 1983 Louisiana-Monroe was the league’s first representative in the NCAA Tournament, winning the Southland’s first postseason contest in an opening round game that same season, followed by another win the following year.
In 1985, Louisiana-Monroe showed the league’s progress, as it advanced to the Final Four. In 29 NCAA Tournaments, the league has won a first or opening round game 12 times.
The league has competed in the WNIT 10 times, as Northwestern State became the first school to compete in the event in 1993. The Demons got the league’s first WNIT win that same season, before ending the tournament in the consolation game. The next season, Louisiana-Monroe advanced to the third round.
In the 1995 WNIT, Northwestern State advanced to the championship game, the second trip in school history, as it played in the 1986 WNIT Championship before joining the Southland Conference in 1988.
In 2008 Texas State made their first appearance in the WNIT with a buzzer-beater victory over Prairie View A&M by Player of the Year Joyce
Ekworomadu for the league’s first postseason win in women’s basketball in 13 years. UT Arlington made its first appearance in the WNIT in 2009 after claiming its first regular-season title under Coach Samantha Morrow.
In 2010, the Southland accomplished its first trifecta as three league programs reached the postseason in the same year. After winning its first league tournament title, Lamar faced West Virginia in the NCAA Tournament. Stephen F. Austin played Creighton in its third WNIT appearance and Texas A&M-Corpus Christi was one of 16 teams invited to compete in the inaugural Women’s Basketball Invitational and reached the semifinals recording its first two postseason wins in school history.
In 2011, McNeese State also tied the NCAA record for the best turnaround from the previous season by posting 19 more wins and earning its first NCAA appearance. The Southland once again sent three teams into the postseason with McNeese State playing in the NCAA Tournament, Lamar competing in the WNIT and Central Arkansas earning its first-ever Division I postseason berth with an invite to the WBI.
Multiple players have continued their careers professionally. Most recently, Central Arkansas’ Caronia Randle and Renita Dobbins played with the Arkansas Starz of the WBCBL, while Stephen F. Austin’s Charity Egenti was invited to WNBA training camp with the Phoenix Mercury.
Former Central Arkansas assistant coach Carone Harris, a two-time All-American and the NCAA career leader in steals in all divisions was named one of the NCAA’s all-time finest women’s basketball players, had a WNBA tryout with the Washington Mystics, before being invited to camp with the Chicago Sky. 2006 Southland Player of the Year Terra Wallace was invited to the WNBA’s Pre-Draft Camp at Cleveland State University.
Other players to continue their careers professionally include UT Arlington’s Rola Ogunove, who played in Europe, as did Northwestern State’s La’Terrica Dobin, the 2004 Southland Player of the Year who led the nation in assists for three-straight years.
Texas State’s Tamara Thompson, the 2005 Southland Newcomer of the Year, played professionally overseas, after playing in Israel in 2006, while Mercy Okorie played for the Nigerian National Team. Stephen F. Austin’s Portia Hill who played professionally in France, was on the 1990 U.S. National Team, while Katrina Price played professionally in the ABL in the late 1990s.
In addition, Texas State’s Ekworomadu, along with former UTSA standout Vivian Ewalefo and SFA standout Charity Egenti, the 2007 Southland Player of the Year, all played for the Nigerian National team.
Over the years, Southland Conference schools have earned victories over Tennessee, Duke, LSU, Alabama, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Texas Tech, Arizona, Baylor, Florida, George Washington, Indiana, Kansas, Kansas State, Maryland, Mississippi, Mississippi State, UNLV, Texas A&M, Texas, Southern California and Missouri.

SEASONOUTLOOKOne.would.think.after.looking.at.the.Northwestern.State.Lady.Demon.basketball.roster,.the.2011-12.season.will.be.a.rebuilding.year...After.all,.it.features.just.two.seniors.and.three.juniors.with.three.sophomores.and.five.freshmen.
But.don’t.tell.that.to.eighth.year.head.coach.Jennifer.Graf.
“I.wouldn’t.consider.it.a.rebuilding.year,”.said.Graf...“I.know.you.look.at.the.roster.and.see.all.of.the.young.names.on.there,.especially.with.the.five.freshmen...That’s.a.lot...But.we.return.so.much.playing.experience.with.Ronikka.(Drake).and.Jordi.(James),.Trudy.(Armstead),.Meredith.(Graf),.and.JB.(Jasmine.Bradley)...They.all.have.so.much.time.on.the.floor.”
Those.returning.five.players.accounted.for.60.percent.of.the.Lady.Demons’.scoring.last.season.and.59.percent.of.the.minutes.played...The.group.combined.to.start.96.games.in.2010-11,.as.James.started.in.28.of.30.games.while.Armstead.started.in.27.of.28.
James.and.Armstead.ranked.1-2.on.the.team.in.scoring.last.season.–.James.averaging.12.2.points.per.game.while.Armstead.notched.10.8.ppg.
“I’ve.been.really.proud.of.those.two,.and.four.of.five.of.our.other.kids,”.said.Graf...“You.can.really.tell.how.hard.a.player.has.worked.over.the.summer.–.those.two.seniors.and.a.handful.of.others,.it’s.just.a.night.and.day.difference.from.last.year.to.right.now...You.can.tell.that.they’ve.really.dedicated.themselves.to.be.better.players.”
One.of.the.surprises.this.season.could.be.from.the.play.of.sophomore.guard.Tiandra.Williams.
Williams.played.in.just.10.games.last.season,.mainly.in.mop-up.duty,.and.scored.eight.points...But.despite.her.lack.of.playing.time,.the.potential.of.being.a.really.good.ball.player.was.deep.down...That.should.burst.out.this.season.
Drake.is.expected.to.run.the.point.but.will.be.challenged.by.true.freshman.Arianne.Ausmer,.who.is.a.gifted.and.talented.point.guard.
At.the.2-guard,.James.has.that.position.locked.down.while.Graf.will.see.ample.playing.time...James.knocked.down.31.three-point.goals.last.season.and.connected.on.102.of.124.from.the.free.throw.line.
Sophomore.guard.Jasmine.Bradley.(9.1.ppg,.6.9.rpg).returns.from.a.stellar.freshman.season.that.saw.her.lead.the.team.in.rebounding.and.steals.(62)...With.her.aggressive.style.of.play,.she.can.play.either.the.inside.or.the.outside.
Under.the.goal.will.be.Armstead.along.with.fellow.twin.tower.Jasmine.Upchurch.(5.4.ppg,.3.2.rpg,.21.blocks)...Upchurch,.who.stands.at.6-foot-3,.could.be.a.player.who.makes.or.breaks.the.season.
“The.thing.with.Jasmine,”.said.Graf,.“is.that.she.can.be.an.all-conference.player.one.game,.and.not.one.the.next...If.she.stays.consistent.with.her.playing.like.she’s.capable.of,.that’ll.be.a.huge.boost.to.the.type.of.season.we.can.have.”

SEASONOUTLOOKTaking.stock.of.her. team.going. into. the.season,.Mavericks.coach.Samantha.Morrow.sees. just.that:.a.team.
“I.feel.like.we.don’t.have.any.superstars,.but.I.feel.like.we.are.going.to.be.very.deep,”.said.Morrow,.heading.into.her.fifth.season.as.UT.Arlington’s.women’s.coach..“I.am.impressed.by.a.couple.of.our.freshmen.that.have.come.in.
“I.think.our.returners.have.realized.they.need.to.be.more.team-oriented.and.they.are.helping.the.freshmen.out.and.mentoring.them.a.little.bit.more..We.do.not.have.any.seniors,.so.we.are.going.to.look.for.it.to.be.a.total.team.effort.as.far.as.leadership.goes.”
The.incoming.class.of.freshmen.is.led.by.guard.Eboni.Watkins.who.suffered.a.torn.ACL.in.the.state.tournament,.but.hopefully.returns.by.Christmas..Krioni.Bruce,.a.forward.from.Mesquite,.and.guard.Chauntandra.Williams.from.Lufkin.are.also.in.the.fold..
“Eboni.Watkins.is.trying.to.bounce.back.from.an.ACL.surgery.and.if.we.can.get.her.back.in.December,.it’s.going.to.be.fantastic.because.she.can.score.the.ball,”.Morrow.said..“Krioni.Bruce.can.score.the.ball..They.can.both.shoot..It’s.just.adapting.from.the.high.school.level.”
Briana.Walker.returns.as.a.sophomore.after.a.strong.freshman.campaign.that.featured.a.number.of.double-digit.scoring.and.rebounding.efforts..The.backcourt.should.be.solid.with.the.returns.of.juniors.Sabreena.DeNure.and.Kiara.Parker.and.sophomores.Michelle.Rodriguez.and.Malaika.Green..Sophomore.forward.Desherra.Nwanguma.has.also.made.strides.since.last.season..
“If.everything.goes.as.planned,.Briana.Walker. should.become.a. recognizable.name,”.Morrow.said..“I.think.potentially.Kiara.Parker.is.going.to.be.very.good.for.us..She.is.a.little.fighter.and.I.think.people.will.like.that.and.see.the.feistiness.in.her..She.just.needs.to.learn.when.to.contain.it..I.think.people.are.going.to.be.surprised.at.how.much.better.Desherra.Nwanguma.has.gotten.”
Morrow.is.counting.on.DeNure.and.Green.to.run.the.point,.take.care.of.the.ball.and.get.to.the.basket..The.Mavericks’.attack.is.designed.to.take.advantage.of.strengths.of.all.five.players.on.the.court...The.Mavericks’.identity.will.be.built.on.their.ability.to.protect.the.basket.and.get.downright.dirty.on.the.defensive.end.
“They.know.that’s.what.I.love,”.Morrow.said..“If.they.want.to.play,.they.are.going.to.have.to.play.some.defense.whereas.in.the.past.I.would.maybe.say,.‘Well,.she’s.going.to.get.15.points.so.she.really.doesn’t.need.to.play.defense.’
“We.are.trying.to.stress.to.them.how.important.it.is.to.get.out.and.compete.in.everything..Every.drill.we.do,.whether.it.is.in.conditioning.or.in.individuals,.we.are.trying.to.make.them.go.out.there.and.compete..We.feel.like.if.we.can.get.five.extra.loose.balls.or.five.tips.here.or.five.steals,.that’s.potentially.10.points..We.lost.a.lot.of.games.last.year.by.seven.or.less.”
In.order.for.the.Mavericks.to.get.where.they.want.to.go,.it.comes.back.to.trust.and.coming.together.as.one.unit.with.a.common.goal.
“We.realize.that.we.have.to.play.more.as.a.team.this.year,”.Morrow.said..“We.need.to.be.more.cohesive.and.not.depend.on.one.or.two.people..Everybody.has.got.to.pull.their.part.of.the.load..I.think.they.recognize.that.”
