Jeff Alder, a long-time fixture on the Liberty campus,enters his seventh season as the head coach of theLiberty men's soccer program. Alder spent nine yearsas an assistant and four seasons as a player for 21-year head coach Bill Bell, before taking over as theprogram's third head coach after the 2000 season.

Alder took over a program which had been a consis-tent winner and has moved it among the elite of theBig South Conference.

During his first six years at the helm, the Flameshave finished first (2001) in the Big South regular -sea-son standings once, while placing second (2003,2004) and third (2000, 2005) twice each and fourth(2006) once. Alder has also guided two Freshman All-Americans, three all-region honorees, two Big SouthFreshman of the Year and 14 all-conference players,including eight first-team members.

Alder has also been the driving force behind thegrowing visibility of the Liberty soccer program, bothregionally and nationally, as the Flames have tradition-ally played several top programs each season. Andlast year was no different as Liberty hosted a top-ranked team, North Carolina, at Liberty Soccer Fieldfor the first time since 1988, while traveling to Virginia,a perennial national power and yearly Flames oppo-nent.

Last season, Alder meshed a team of experienced vet-erans and several newcomers to post a 9-6 overallmark, overcoming early injury to several key players to close the season with five-consecutive victories,before falling in overtime in the semifinals of the BigSouth Championship. The Liberty head coach alsosaw two of his players go on to play professionally andfor their country’s national team in Darryl Roberts andOsei Telesford. In addition, under Alder’s guidance,Roberts finished his career as the school’s all-timescoring leader.

In 2005, the Flames lost several key players toinjury in the preseason, yet even after a rough start,Alder had Liberty in a position to claim first place in theconference going into the last day of the regular sea-son, as the Flames finished 6-8-2.

The previous season, Alder’s team once again over-came several injuries to key players and arguably thetoughest schedule in the program’s history to finishwith a 9-10-2 overall mark and a second-place BigSouth regular-season finish.

Despite a 9-10 overall record in his first season in2001, the team finished the regular season tied for firstplace in the Big South with a 5-2 league record andreached the title game of the Big South Championship.

In 2002, Alder guided the Flames to their best over-all record during his tenure, 11-8-2, including a 4-2-1mark in Big South play.

As an assistant coach, Alder served as the recruit-ing coordinator, a role in which he oversaw the recruit-ing process, including evaluations, home visits andofficial visits. His other responsibilities included assist-ing in the preparation, implementation and supervisionof daily practice sessions, scouting of opponents, teamtravel and scheduling.

Alder also spent six years as the Director ofAcademics for Athletics, supervising the overall athlet-ic academic support program for all of Liberty's stu-dent-athletes.

2007 MEN’S SOCCER

Coming into the 2006 season,the Liberty Flames men’s soccerteam looked to have all the keyingredients in place for an out-standing year. Coach Jeff Alder’ssquad returned important veteranparts when several players decidedto come back for their final seasonof eligibility. Add to them, a stronggroup of newcomers who wereexpected to make an impact rightaway and optimism was high for asuccessful season.

The Flames opened the year ona warm and muggy night atLongwood. After taking a bit to fig-ure out the Lancers’ defensivestyle, Liberty controlled the gameand pressured the host’s net for therest of the night. The Flames couldnot push a goal past however,sending the scoreless contest toovertime.

However, after another score-less stanza in the first overtime,Adrian Bumbut was pulled down inthe box during the second extraperiod for a foul. Darryl Roberts,one of three players who returnedfor their final Liberty season,

banged home the resulting penaltykick to send the Flames home awinner, 1-0, on opening night.

Remaining on the road for theirits contest, Liberty traveled toRadford for an early Big SouthConference contest. After an even-ly played first period, theHighlanders broke open the gamein the second for a 3-1 victory toeven the Flames’ ledger at 1-1.

The ensuing Saturday broughtmore than the usual excitementsurrounding a home opener asAlder’s team welcomed thenation’s No. 1-ranked team, theNorth Carolina Tar Heels, toLynchburg for the first contest ofthe season at Liberty Soccer Field.

Standing toe-to-toe with the ACCfoe, a crowd of over 2,000 watchedthe Flames give the Tar Heels allthey could handle, before droppinga 1-0 decision on a North Carolinamarker midway through the secondhalf.

Three days later, Liberty evenedits record at 2-2 overall and 1-1 inthe Big South with a strong 3-2 vic-tory at VMI. Roberts became theFlames’ all-time leading scorer bynetting two goals in the contest. Hissecond goal, off a pass from JuanGuzman, pushed him past JamesWright to the top of the scoring listwith 90 career points. The forwardwould go on to score four morepoints during the season to finishhis career with 94.

Liberty returned home a weeklater for an important conferencematch with Coastal Carolina. TobyLewis assisted on the Flames’ firstgoal and nine minutes later, had anunassisted tally of his own, to giveLiberty a 2-0 lead at intermission.Goalkeeper Kevin Mahan and theFlame defensive corps thenclamped down throughout the sec-ond half to provide Liberty with a 2-1 win.

In their following contest, theFlames got all they could handle in

an 8-1 loss at Winthrop, sendingLiberty back to Lynchburg with a 3-3 overall record and a 2-2 confer-ence mark.

Josh Boateng’s penalty kick inthe Flames’ next contest, a hard-fought 2-1 home victory overGardner-Webb, pushed Liberty’smark to 4-3 overall with matches atBirmingham-Southern and nation-ally-ranked Virginia looming ahead.

Despite holding a 7-3 shotadvantage in the first half of play,the Flames found themselves onthe short end of a 2-0 score atintermission at Birmingham-Southern. A Boateng marker 25minutes into the second stanza cutthe Panther advantage in half, but itwas the closest Liberty got on theafternoon in a 3-1 setback.

Three nights later, the Flameshung tough with No. 3 Virginia tobegin the October part of theirschedule, before falling 2-0 to theCavaliers.

After waiting 11 days for their nextmatch due to rain in the south cen-tral Virginia area, Liberty returnedhome with the first of two importantconference home games, lookingto get rolling. In the first contestagainst UNC Asheville, Mike Gelatt

advantage of one of the few scor-ing opportunities of the evening toend the Flames season with a 2-1,overtime victory. As the champi-onship closed, Mahan andTelesford were named to the all-tournament team.

In centuries gone by, "liberty" was just aconcept - an idea feared by tyrants anddreamed of by the opposed. In more recenthistory, "liberty" became a cause and adeeply held belief worth fighting and dyingfor. Today, Liberty University has become aplace where students call home … wherepeople dare to dream big dreams and thenwork to see those dreams come to pass …where old-fashioned values and morality stillsurvive and thrive in a world that appears tohave forgotten the meaning of the words…where the undeniable Truth of the Ages stillreigns supreme … where the whole person iseducated - body, mind and soul … a placewhere you can learn, grow and achievewholeness as you become all God createdyou to be.

TThhee MMiissssiioonn To produce Christ-centered men and

women with the values, knowledge and skillsrequired to impact tomorrow's world … themission is carried out for resident students,through both undergraduate and graduateprograms, through a rigorous academic pro-gram and structured social environment …also, it is carried out externally for studentswho can't make the trek to the campus in acomparable academic program but withoutthe structure of the resident community,through the distance learning program.

Dr. Jerry FalwellLiberty University Founder and Former Chancellor (1933-2007)

At the age of22, having justgraduated from col-lege in June of1956, Jerry Falwellreturned to hishometown ofLynchburg, Va.,and startedThomas Road

Baptist Church with 35 members. The offering thatfirst Sunday totaled only $135.

Falwell often said about the first collection,“We thought we had conquered the world”. Today,Thomas Road Church has 24,000 members andthe total annual revenues of all the Jerry Falwellministries total over $200 million.

Within weeks of founding his new church in1956, Falwell began the Old-Time Gospel Hour, adaily local radio ministry and a weekly local televi-sion ministry. Nearly five decades later, this Old-Time Gospel Hour is now seen and heard in everyAmerican home and on every continent exceptAntarctica. Through the years, over three millionpersons have communicated to the Falwell min-istries they received Christ as Lord and Savior asa result of this radio and television ministry.

In 1967, Falwell implemented his vision tobuild a Christian educational system for evangeli-

cal youth. He began with the creation ofLynchburg Christian Academy, a Christ-centered,academically-excellent, fully-accredited Christianday school, providing kindergarten, elementaryand high school.

In 1971, Liberty University was founded.Today, over 27,000 students from 50 states and80 nations attend this accredited, liberal artsChristian university. Falwell’s dream has becomea reality. A pre-school child can now enter theschool system at age three, and 20 or more yearslater, leave the same campus with a Ph.D., with-out ever sitting in a classroom where the teacherwas not a committed follower of Jesus Christ.

Falwell was also publisher of the NationalLiberty Journal, a monthly newspaper which isread by over 200,000 pastors and Christian work-ers, and the Falwell Confidential, a weekly e-mailnewsletter to over 500,000 pastors and Christianactivists.

In June 1979, Falwell organized the MoralMajority, a conservative political lobbying move-ment which the press soon dubbed the "ReligiousRight." During the first two years of its existence,the Moral Majority attracted over 100,000 pastors,priests and rabbis and nearly seven million reli-gious conservatives who mobilized as a pro-life,pro-family, pro-Israel, and pro-strong nationaldefense lobbying organization.

The Moral Majority chose California GovernorRonald Reagan as "their candidate" for Presidentin 1980, registered millions of new voters, and setabout to inform and activate a sleeping giant - 80million Americans committed to faith, family, andJudeo-Christian values.

With the impetus of the newly organized MoralMajority, millions of people of faith voted for thefirst time in 1980 and helped elect Ronald Reaganand many conservative congressmen and sena-tors. Since 1979, about 30% of the American elec-torate has been identified by media polls as the"Religious Right". Most recent major media sur-veys have acknowledged these "faith and values"voters re-elected George W. Bush in November2004.

Though perhaps better known outsideLynchburg for political activism, Jerry Falwell'spersonal schedule confirmed his passion for beinga pastor and a Christian educator. He often statedhis heartbeat was for training young people forevery walk of life.

Falwell, who went home to be with the Lord atthe age of 73 on May 15, 2007, was married toMacel for 49 years and they have three grownchildren and eight grandchildren.

He was also responsiblefor all major gifts to the Gamecock Club whichexceeded $15,000 annually and developed thatlevel of giving from 21 members to 137 at his timeof departure.

Barber joined the athletics department atSouth Carolina in 1996 as an Assistant AthleticDirector for Development and was promoted toAssociate Athletic Director/Gamecock ClubExecutive Director in 1999.
