Over the past 17 seasons, head coach Fred Jor-dan has seen his Bulldogs win seven SoCon titles and advance to the NCAA Regionals six times. A former Bulldog pitcher, Jordan has established the Bulldogs as one of the hardest working and most consistent teams in the coun-try.

Hard work is what “Bulldog Style” is all about. With talent that can compete at any level, Jor-dan instills the words “Belief, Faith, Trust” into his players and by the time spring training rolls around, they are not just words, but a way of life on and off the diamond.

Jordan’s players never leave the field with a clean uniform or without dirt on their faces. Many around the Southern Conference point to this as the reason the Bulldogs have been so successful since Jordan took the reigns in 1992.

Since Jordan arrived, every player that has been recruited by him has been in a position to win a Southern Conference Championship. His pitch-

ing staffs traditionally rank in the top-30 in the nation in earned run average, while also being one of the top pitching teams in the SoCon. Jor-dan’s pitching staffs have won eight conference ERA titles during his tenure.

Jordan is not only a pitching guru, but his teams have produced superior hitting numbers and play exceptional defense as well. During his tenure, Bulldog players have hit over .300 for a season on 97 different occasions while 24 have stolen over 20 bases in a single season. During his 17 seasons, The Citadel record books have been re-written and the majority of the offensive records are held by hitters under his tutelage.

Jordan’s clubs regularly lead the conference in fielding percentage, including in 2004 when the Bulldogs set a new single-season record with a .974 mark.

All of these factors can be summed up in these words ... “The Citadel Baseball. Not Just a Sea-son, but for a Lifetime.”

Seignious HallThe home of The Citadel’s football program, Seignious Hall provides the Bulldogs with one of the most modern and complete facilities of its kind in the Southeast.

The building also houses The Citadel Sports Medicine and Athletic Strength and Development Departments as well as the athletic department’s equipment room.

Opened in the spring of 1983, the building is named in honor of one of The Citadel’s former presidents, Lt. Gen. George M. Seignious II.

The $1.5 million facility, which sits behind Vandiver Hall and overlooks the Ashley River, was financed through private funds.

In addition to housing the football coaches’ offices, Seignious Hall also has a spacious training room, large dressing rooms, meet-ing rooms, equipment storage areas, and a spacious weight room which is supplied with modern weight-training equipment. The weight room has undergone a facelift in the last few years, including the addition of more than 30 new weight training machines, new state-of-the-art flooring, and new cardio equipment that benefits all athletes.

“The body will tolerate more than the mind will lead it to believe. Our program is built around several principles that stem much farther than that phrase is capable of reaching. However, if I could pick one thing that I could give to every athlete that trains with us, then it would be that mental-ity. I think focus is the single most important facet of athletic performance enhancement, as well as on field performance. Distractions are really the only thing that can slow a person’s progress. When an athlete has devel-oped the mental toughness to never be distracted by things like fatigue, environment and surroundings, they become pretty hard to beat.”

Donnell Boucher

In the spring of 1997, a Citadel official was quoted as saying the Bulldogs had three important things going for its base-ball program: weather, tradition and the best facility in college baseball. When The Citadel moved from historic College Park to Joseph P. Riley, Jr. Park and played their first game in “The Joe” on April 6, 1997, the Bulldogs continued to play in one of the best facilities in col-lege baseball. Named for the longtime – and current – Charleston mayor who is a 1964 gradu-ate of The Citadel, “The Joe” has seating for 6,000 in one of the most picturesque ballpark settings in the country. Designed by HOK Sport, the same archi-tecture firm that designed Oriole Park at Camden Yards in Baltimore, Coors Field in Denver, Jacobs Field in Cleveland, Nationals Park in Washington, D.C. and PNC Park in Pittsburgh, Riley Park is located on the banks of the Ashley River with a view of the Charleston Marina beyond the left-center field wall. The winning tradition that was a mainstay at College Park was immediately established in the first game ever to be played at Riley Park on April 6, 1997. The Citadel’s Ryan Butler blasted a two-run home run in the bottom of the ninth inning to give the Bulldogs a 6-5, come-from-behind victory over Western Carolina. Not to be outdone by advancements in technology, Riley Park was upgraded in 2006 when a state-of-the-art video board was installed, replacing the original matrix board. In addition, a new scoreboard was installed featuring LED lighting. Since its first full season as home of the Bulldogs in 1998, Ri-ley Park has seen over 481,000 fans file through the gates to

watch The Citadel play, averaging over 43,700 fans per year. The single game attendance record for a collegiate baseball game at “The Joe” was on March 30, 2005 when 5,802 people watched The Citadel play South Carolina. The most fans to watch the Bulldogs over the course of a season at home was in 2004 when over 58,500 fans headed to “The Joe” to watch the Bull-dogs play. The Citadel has finished in the top-35 nationally in attendance eight times in the 11 seasons playing at Riley Park. The roaring crowds in support of the Bulldogs make “The Joe” one of the toughest places to play in the South. That has resonated with the success of the program as the Bulldogs have accumulated a 264-132 (.667) record at Riley Park. That includes a 125-43 (.744) mark in Southern Conference games. That success rate is an extension of the success established at College Park from 1967 – 1997 as the Bulldogs went 549-257 and posted a .681 winning percentage. In its inaugural season, Riley Park became home to the Southern Conference Tournament, a popular mainstay in the Holy City. One of the most attended college baseball tournaments in the nation, The Citadel and Riley Park hosted the SoCon Tournament through the 2008 season, marking 19 consecutive years the tournament has been held in Charleston. After a year’s absence in Greenville, S.C., the tournament is slated to return to its home city in 2010.

Notes on “The Joe”

*Bricks -- Over 280,000 were used. That’s nearly three bricks for each person in Charleston.*Sprinklers -- There are a total of 75 sprinkler heads.*Light Poles -- There are six, each 120-feet high with 112 lumi-naries producing 168,000 watts of light.*Showers -- One could have a daily shower for three months and never use the same shower. There are a total of 96 in the ballpark.*Speakers -- The park has a total of 90 speakers.*Grass -- Riley Park has Tifway Burmuda 419.

The Citadel Bulldog Clubhouse at Riley Park is affectionately named “Chal’s House” in honor of legendary Citadel coach Chal Port.

The single-game tournament attendance record of 5,419 was set in 2003 for an opening round game between The Citadel and the College of Charleston. The tournament attendance record was set in 2004 when more than 35,000 fans attended the SoCon Tournament at Riley Park, an average of 2,343 per game. Over 300,000 patrons have attended the 19 previous SoCon Tourna-ments held in Charleston and anxiously await its return. Riley Park is more than a playing field for the Bulldogs. The Citadel’s clubhouse, affectionately named “Chal’s House” after legendary coach Chal Port, provides individual lockers for each player, a full amenity bathroom facility, coaches’ locker room and office and meeting space. The Bulldog Hall of Fame that boasts players that have gone on to the professional ranks, along with The Citadel’s Wall of Champions, line the halls leading to the clubhouse. There are also exclusive tunnels that run to the batting cages and dugout as well as a sports medicine training room. Riley Park also features ample restroom facilities, convenient con-cession stands, sufficient parking, a state-of-the-art videoboard, an easy-to-read scoreboard with LED lighting, party areas, sky-boxes, a comfortable press box with separate radio and televi-

sion booths, three locker rooms, umpires’ locker room, training rooms, significant office space and just about all amenities for which one could ask. The Citadel shares its home with the Charleston RiverDogs, the Class-A affiliate of the New York Yankees. The RiverDogs cur-rently play in the South Atlantic League (SAL).

In its 11 seasons at Riley Park, The Citadel has ranked in the top-35 nationally in attendance on eight separate occasions.

Riley Park, or “The Joe” as it is affectionately known, hosted the Southern Conference Tourna-ment from 1997 - 2008. The Joe will host one of the nation’s premier collegiate conference tour-naments once again in 2010 when the Southern Conference Tournament returns to its home city.

After serving as the home to The Citadel baseball program for more than 26 successful seasons, historic College Park re-mains a part of the Bulldog program as the team’s practice and training facility. Known with a lengthy tradition for hous-ing sporting events in Charleston, College Park served as host of the Southern Conference Tournament from 1990 – 1996 and still remains host to Dixie League games, travel team tournaments and baseball camps throughout the year.

Located along the west side of Rutledge Avenue between Grove and Cleveland Streets, the once-city owned park was given its name by virtue of the College of Charleston leasing it for several years for its athletic games.

College Park features a well-manicured playing surface, four full-length batting cages, a tee and soft toss area, a bullpen area with five pitching rubbers and a full-size clubhouse.

Prior to Riley Park opening in the spring of 1997, College Park was home to the Bulldogs and the Charleston RiverDogs while also serving as the set for the movie Major League III: Back to the Minors and the local television drama Palmetto Pointe.

The Citadel was 549-257 in the 30 years the Bulldogs called College Park home with 6,000 seats right on top of the field. Roaring crowds and hard-nosed teams made College Park an intimidating place for any opponent.

Besides being a home for the Bulldogs, College Park has been home to the various minor league teams that have called Charleston home since the 1940s.

College Park has also been the site of several major league exhibitions throughout its history. The Cincinnati Reds, Washington Senators, St. Louis Cardinals, Philadel-phia Phillies and Boston Red Sox have all taken the field

at College Park. Also home to several concerts throughout history, College Park once hosted “The King,” Elvis Presley.

Until 1967, the park was occasionally used by The Citadel when Washington Light Infantry Field, then home of the Dogs, was unplayable due to weather conditions. After the ballpark at WLI was exten-sively damaged by a tornado which swept through Charleston in 1966, the school leased – and eventually purchased – the park from the city and the Bulldogs began play there in 1967.

College Park underwent renovations in 1984 and 1985 and was rebuilt after extensive damage from Hurricane Hugo in 1989 destroyed the roof, press box and tore out the light poles. Rebuilt before and during the 1990 season, the ballpark was home to the magical 1990 team that became the first – and still is the only – team from any military college to ever advance to the Col-lege World Series.

McAlister Field HouseA Brand New Clubhouse

McAlister Field House has hosted such entertainment acts as Dave Matthews, Widespread Panic, Bob Hope, Kenny Rogers and Patti LaBelle. Events that have utilized the multi-purpose bulding include WCW Wrestling, Charles-ton Cup Gymanastics Championships, Special Olympics, Moja Arts Festival, Rotary/Red Cross Roundball High School Basketball Classic and a number of high school and collge commencement ceremonies.

Orginially constructed in 1939 and renovated in 1989, McAlister Field House serves as the indoor home of the baseball program. With the seats pulled back, there is space for three full-size basketball courts and the base-ball team utilizes this space throughout the year when inclement weather prevents the team from practicing elsewhere.

The facility, which also houses the athletic department’s administrative offices, has a seating capacity of 6,000. When it was built in 1939, it was referred to as “The Cit-adel Armory” and seated 4,500 for basketball games.

Top to bottom, McAlister Field House is one of the top arenas for its sports in the region for both participants and fans. Even though 6,000 fans can pack into McAlis-ter Field House for a basketball game, no fan is further than 24 rows away from the court. In addition, concession stands and rest room facilities are located on both the first and second floors.

With the seats pulled back, there are three full-size bas-ketball courts for practice. During inclement weather, The Citadel’s baseball, football, tennis and track and field teams use the facility.

McAlister Field HouseThe Bulldogs’ Other HomeThrough the generous donations of Bulldog alumni and fans, The Citadel Baseball unveiled a completely remodeled clubhouse in McAlister Field House prior to the 2008 season. “The Bulldogs Other Home,” the clubhouse in McAlister Field House is used on a daily basis and when the team is not playing or practicing at Riley Park.

The remodeling of the clubhouse was financed almost entirely through donations and gifts-in-kind and features new wooden lockers for each player, new tile in the showers, a new stereo system, 42” flat screen plasma televisions, new carpet and furniture in the coaches offices and a brand new academic enrichment center.

DID YOU KNOW?mcalister field house is one of the oldest college basketball venues currently in use today. Bulldog athletic teams have been calling it home since 1939. There are only 11 other venues that surpass The Cit-adel’s historic field house, including The Palestra at penn and Butler’s hinkle field house.

Phil Hartig, the most prolific hitter in Citadel baseball history, high-lighted a list of six who were inducted into The Citadel Athletic Hall of Fame this year. The induction ceremonies were held at McAlister Field House during Hall of Fame Weekend on Nov. 1, 2008.

Also entering the Hall as members of the Class of 2008 are basketball standouts Rick Swing and Tom Slawson, baseball pitcher Britt Reames, and former Director of Athletics Walt Nadzak and longtime football videographer Carl Kilpatrick, who enter as honorary members.

Phil Hartig ‘00Hartig is the most prolific hitter in Citadel baseball history as he es-tablished 14 offensive records and earned first team All-Southern Conference honors all four years. The league’s Player of the Year in 2001, Hartig was also the 1998 SoCon Freshman of the Year and twice earned All-America honors from Collegiate Baseball (second team in 2000; third team in 2001). He finished his career ranked fourth in the NCAA career total bases and seventh in ca-reer hits. Among his many school records, Hartig holds the career marks in games played (239), runs (230), hits in a season (99) and career (360), career doubles (76), RBI in a season (86) and career (290), career slugging percentage (.673) and career fielding percentage (.989). Owning a career batting average of .367, Har-tig holds the mark along with Chip Cannon with 17 home runs in a season and for his career, he belted 64 home runs (second best is Anthony Jenkins’ 32). He played on Fred Jordan-coached teams that went a combined 155-88 and started on teams that advanced to three NCAA regionals, won three Southern Conference Tournament titles and two SoCon regular season titles. Hartig was drafted in the 24th round by the Florida Marlins.

Britt Reames ‘96Reames was a hard-throwing right-hander who finished his career with an 18-7 record and 2.03 ERA. After his senior season, he was second in school history with 296 career strikeouts, having established the mark for strikeouts in a season (135 in 1994) and game (18, vs. Marshall in 1995 during the SoCon Tournament). He was a member of the 1994 pitching staff that set the mark with 531 strikeouts and he recorded 10 wins in 1995. A two-time All-Southern Conference perform-er (first team in 1995; second team in 1994), Reames earned All-SoCon Tournament honors in 1994 and 1995. In 1994 he had the best league ERA (2.16) and in 1995 was tops in the league in strikeouts per 9 innings (11.3). He played on two SoCon Tournament championship teams, one team that captured a regular-season title, and pitched in the 1994 East Regional at Clemson and the 1995 Mideast Regional at Knoxville. Reames was drafted in the 17th round by the St. Louis Cardinals and in 2000 pitched for the Car-dinals in the Division Series against Atlanta and the National League Championship Series against New York. He played six years in the Major Leagues for the Cardinals, Montreal Expos, Oakland Athletics and Pittsburgh Pirates.

The Citadel Hall of FameBulldog GreatsThey couldn’t remember if it was sunny, cloudy or rainy but they did recall meeting in Athletic Director Eddie Teague’s office on the second floor of McAlister Field House. They were certain, however, that it was hot outside.

Forgive these aging men if they can’t recall minor items like the day’s weather. After all, it was more than 30 years ago.

On June 11, 1977, five volunteers from The Citadel Brigadier Club and two ex-officio committee members left Coach Teague’s air-conditioned office with papers in hand. Gen. George Seignious, The Citadel’s presi-dent, had endorsed the volunteers’ work and the hard-nosed Teague was pleased. Even the school’s attorney had given it his blessing.

What those men walked away with on that suspected warm and humid day 31 years ago was the formation of The Citadel Athletic Hall of Fame. They brought a unique way to honor, recognize and keep the legacy alive of those who proudly wore the blue and white and who ex-celled on a higher plane on the various athletic fields, courts, rings, pools, ranges and tracks of competition.

These celebrated combatants were clearly the best of the best. And they still are.

The Citadel Athletic Hall of Fame Steering Committee consisted of Her-bie Wilcox, his brother, John Wilcox ’56, Bob Daniel ’49, Bob McDowell ’55 and Stan Hurteau ’65. Jimmie Jones ’58 was the ex-officio member from the Brigadier Club and Jim Dodson ’55 represented the Association of Citadel Men. One of the first orders of business was that the Hall was to be jointly coordinated and operated by both the Association and the Brigadier Club.

One benefit of membership in The Citadel Athletic Hall of Fame is receiv-ing two free tickets to every home athletic event for life. Evidently, that perk was something that Teague, a hawk of a businessman, was reluctant to give away.

“Eddie was tight,” Daniel remembers, “though he didn’t have much to start with. But I say with all sincerity that I was blessed that I was able to work with Eddie Teague. He was a wonderful man who was somewhat embarrassed to ask for anything, but he got things done.”

Teague eventually relented, and the tradition of each Hall of Fame mem-ber owning two lifetime passes to all home athletic events continues.

The first Hall of Fame induction ceremonies took place in Jenkins Hall and remained there until they were moved to McAlister Field House in the mid-1990s. The format for the ceremonies pretty much remains the same.

The original class of inductees included Cecil Johnson ’11, Richard King ’29, W.F. “Gunner” Ohlandt ’51, Paul Maguire ’60 and John Small ’70.

Today, there are 144 members in The Citadel Athletic Hall of Fame, of which 54 are deceased. Membership encompasses the sports of foot-ball, basketball, baseball, track and field, wrestling, soccer, boxing, rifle, tennis, golf and swimming.

The Hall’s by-laws permit only four athletes and one “honorary” member to enter in each calendar year. Eighteen of the Hall’s inductees have entered as “honorary” members. Most of the honorary inductees are coaches while others are former administrators or boosters. However, one is a trainer (William Boswick) and another (George Norwig) is the first “Voice of the Bulldogs.”

Improbable Cast Carries Citadel to GloryBy: Ken Burger - June 10, 1990

The post & Courier

Who’d a thunk it?In the beginning, back in January, when they gathered to practice in warm-up suits and on some days could see their breath as they zipped the ball around the infield and the aluminum bats were cold to the touch, nobody gave it much thought.

Nor did early February send any signs. The season started as most do, lost some-where between the end of football and the crescendo of basketball. They were winning a few games, there even appeared to be a pattern. But nobody really gave it much thought.

In fact no one, not even their coach, thought the 1990 Citadel baseball team would be much different from those that had come before. They were picked to finish sixth in the eight-member Southern Conference where only seven schools play baseball.

So who’d a thunk it?

That this band of unlikely heroes would somehow put it all together and battle their way to the College World Series. Certainly not the media. Certainly not coach Chal Port, who gave his usual preseason assessment of rebuilding. Probably not even the players, a group of 35 cadets with only seven seniors on the roster, almost all of whom are from South Carolina or neighboring towns in Georgia and North Carolina.

They would go through their season, do their best, enjoy the camaraderie and be able to tell their sons about playing baseball at The Citadel many years from now.

Nobody knew. Really. Nobody knew.

It wasn’t until late February, maybe early March, when their headlines started get-ting a little larger, moving to the front page of the sports section. Bulldogs win 10th straight. Bulldogs win 12th straight. Bulldogs extend win streak.

Soon the television stations were showing up at College Park to get snipets of the moment for the evening news. Win streaks are fun to follow. They give people something to talk about over lunch. How ‘bout those Bulldogs?

And then the streak got serious. As they approached the school record, still win-ning, the pressure started building. Seventeen. Eighteen. Nineteen straight. The school record was 22 straight. Now people were paying attention.

And they broke it, eventually winning 26 straight before losing to Kent State. The ride was over. The TV cameras didn’t come back for awhile. The team went into a mild slump, apparently returning to reality. Ev-erybody could relax.

But the slump didn’t last. The Bulldogs started winning again, this time with a little less hoop-la. And by the end of the season they won the Southern Conference regular-season title going away. No contest. Interesting. And to make things more interesting, the conference tournament was coming to Charleston for the first time. The pres-sure was on again.

By this time, however, the warm spring breezes of April found a Citadel team that had genu-inely come into its own. They were loose. They were having fun. They had nothing to lose. And they didn’t.

They dominated the tournament, won four straight, and earned the right to travel to Miami for the Atlantic Regional. Everybody thought it would be a nice trip for the boys who had played so hard. Nobody thought they would have a chance.

But they did it again. Against unbelievable odds, they beat North Carolina State, East Carolina and the dreaded Miami Hurricanes twice to steal the regional crown and a trip to Omaha, Neb., for the College World Series.

So who’d a thunk it?

Nobody was more surprised by this time than Port, a veteran of 26 years of coaching Citadel baseball teams. He had seen teams with more potential go south. He had seen some with less do well. But he had never had a group like this.

By now the city of Charleston and the Palmetto State were getting a little giddy about this club. The Citadel, yes, The Citadel was in the College World Series. What a trip. What a story. Everybody thought it was great. Nobody thought they had a chance.

And when they arrived in the Midwest, they didn’t. Not really. The other teams were loaded. Real contenders. The Bulldogs were just an aberration, a novelty. The only military school to ever make it to the final eight. Everybody talked about how they had to march and what great manners the boys had and how Port was one of the funniest, most entertaining coaches around.

They lost their first game to Louisiana State, 8-2. People thought, that’s OK, at least they made it this far. Nobody expected them to do anything anyway. One more loss and they’re gone. They made a good showing. Got on ESPN.

Then they played the game of their lives. Trailing Cal-State Fullerton 4-1 going into the seventh inning, they rallied. Port did some of his magic coaching and strained every ounce of talent and ability out of his team. They won, 8-7, in a

12-inning drama that few will forget.

So they had done it. They had at least won a game in Omaha, proving they belonged, that they weren’t a fluke. One more loss and they’d be coming home.

It came the next night, against LSU, again. This time it was 6-1, a loss relayed back to the fans by radio because ESPN couldn’t show it live due to its major-league obligation. It was probably better that way. Hearing it was less painful than watching it.

And at 4:07 p.m. the next day, they touched down in Charleston. The end of a long odyssey. The season that couldn’t have been, had been. They became and remain the most unlikely and humble of heroes.

For through their efforts they gave us all some-thing to cheer for, and gave themselves some-thing to remember forever. It was one of those things that wasn’t supposed to happen, but it did. And those are the best kind.

Who’d a thunk it?

How They Got ThereLongest Winning Streak in the NationFrom Surviving a Hurricane...

...To Surviving the Hurricanes

The Citadel was faced with great odds for success in 1990 long before the season started. In the fall of 1989, Hurricane Hugo destroyed the Bulldogs’ practice field adjacent to Johnson Hagood Stadium and severely damaged College Park. The team held preseason practices on the College Park field with construction of the rebuilding of College Park taking place around them. The construction to rebuild College Park was no quick effort, but lasted well into the season.

After clinching the Southern Conference’s automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament after winning the SoCon Tournament, The Citadel was sent to Coral Gables, Fla. as the No. 5 Seed in the NCAA Atlantic Regional. The Bulldogs were forced to defeat the Hurricanes on their home turf - twice.

Did You Know??The Citadel held the longest winning streak in the nation in 1990 after winning 26 straight games. That winning streak, which garnered national media attention (see New York Times article to the right), began on Feb. 18 with a 12-1 win over North Carolina State and ended on March 27 with a 2-1 loss to Kent State.

The Citadel’s national-best, 26-game win streak in 1990 garnered national media attention, including this article in the New York Times.

Feb. 9 – The Citadel opens the season with a 5-4 victory on the road against the No. 1 ranked team in Division II – Armstrong State. Anthony Jenkins hits the first of his then-school-record 16 home runs.

Feb. 17 – Amid construction at a Hurricane Hugo-damaged College Park, The Citadel drops its home opener to North Carolina State, 5-3. The sound of jackhammers working on dugouts and fences outside the stadium will continue for most of the regular season, causing a great deal of distraction for the Bulldogs and their opponents. The Citadel would not lose again, however, for 38 days.

Feb. 18 – The Dogs’ 26-game, school-record win-ning streak gets underway on a cold, rainy Sun-day afternoon at College Park with a 12-1 romp over North Carolina State.

March 10-11 – The Citadel completes its first-ev-er three-game sweep of Western Carolina, de-feating the five-time defending Southern Confer-ence Champions by scores of 6-3, 7-3 and 10-3. The Bulldogs would go on to lose only one league game the entire season.

March 13 – The Bulldogs rally from an 8-4 defi-cit to edge George Mason, 9-8, and run their winning streak to 15. The Citadel collects only three hits (all singles) but takes advantage of six Patriot errors and nine walks.

March 26 – With the city of Charleston already buzzing over their Bulldogs, the national press began taking notice. None other than the New York Times ran a story about the winning streak and all the obstacles the Bulldogs have had to overcome this season (focusing on the destruction caused by Hugo).

March 27 – After defeating Kent State the day before, the Golden Flashes rebound to defeat The Citadel, 2-1, to snap the Dogs’ and nation’s longest winning streak at 26.

April 13 – Despite having two games against VMI rained out (the Bulldogs won the only game played in the series, 8-3), The Citadel clinched the regular season SoCon title with a three-game set against second-place Marshall still left to play.

April 27 – The Citadel and the City of Charleston served as host for the 1990 Coca-Cola Southern

Conference Tournament. The success of the tournament brought a three-year commitment from the league’s athletic directors (the start of a 19-year run where the Holy City hosted the tournament).

April 28 – Chal Port earns his 600th career victory as the Bulldogs pick up two wins and advance to the championship game of the SoCon Tourna-ment.

April 29 – Gettys Glaze hits the first of two home runs of his career as The Citadel runs up a 6-0 lead and holds on for a 9-5 victory over Western Carolina and the Dogs’ first SoCon Tournament title. In one of the greatest sights of the 1990 season, Glaze warmed up in the Bulldog bullpen wear-ing his shin guards (he was catching at the time and loosened up while the Dogs were batting). Glaze, in addition to his batting heroics, picked up the save against the Catamounts. A then-SoCon Tournament record crowd of 3,186 cheers the Bulldogs on to victory.

May 21 – In a telephone hookup, The Citadel’s first-round opponent in the Atlantic Regional is announced to a press conference assembled at Johnson Hagood Stadium. The Bulldogs learn that they will travel to Miami, Fla., and play North Carolina State, a team they split two games with earlier in the season, in the first round of regional play. The Dogs were seeded fifth and grouped with the top seed and host school Miami, the Wolfpack, East Carolina, Stetson and South Florida in the six-team regional.

May 21 – After receiving word of their regional assignment, The Citadel finished its pre-regional tune-up with an 11-2 victory over another NCAA playoff-bound team in Clemson at College Park.

May 22 – With fans gathered on campus to wish the team luck, the Bull-dogs depart Charleston by bus for the 10-hour ride to Miami. Assistant coach Ken Creehan shows up wearing a University of Miami baseball cap to inspire the Dogs.

“Hurricanes Finished Off 4-1 by Citadel’s No. 4 Pitcher”

The Citadel’s elimination of top-seeded Miami at the Atlantic Re-gional in Coral Gables, Fla., shocked the nation.

They Wrote It�

“No. 5 Seed Wins Atlantic Regional”By dan leBatard, miami herald

“Most people,” University of Miami pitcher Jeff Alkine said softly Tuesday afternoon, “have never even heard of The Cita-del.” Most people have probably never heard of Chris Coker, Tony Skole or Brad Stowell, either. But the Crew Cut Kids from that unglamorous, unknown, un-derdog military school at Charleston, S.C., did the unbelievable Tuesday afternoon, winning the Atlantic Regional with a surpris-ingly easy 4-1 victory over top-seeded Unviersity of Miami be-fore 2,157 startled fans at Mark Light Stadium.

They Said It^The Citadel Head Coach Chal Port

“We might not have all the talent that the other teams might have but the whole on this team is better than the parts.” “I really think that because we’re a military school and our players are confronted with stressful situations in school as cadets, it conditions them to handle pressure better and we handled the pressure of playing Miami in Miami very well.” “Now we just have to figure out how to celebrate. We’ve got a 10-hour bus ride back to Charleston so maybe we’ll sing or something.” Continued on P. 24

May 25 – Play finally begins in the regional and The Citadel jumps out quickly, scoring six runs in the first three innings and routing North Carolina State, 11-3.

May 27 – The Citadel faces East Carolina, a team with the nation’s best winning percentage and with eight of their nine hitters batting over .300. Although the Pirates had the lead three times in the game, the Bulldogs were able to rally for an 8-5 win.

May 28 – The Citadel shocks the crowd at Mark Light Field with a 6-2 win over Miami. The Cita-del is the only undefeated team left in the tour-nament. Miami came back later that day and beat North Carolina State to set up a rematch with what Miami Herald columnist Dan LeBatard called “the cutest little team in the NCAA base-ball tournament.”

May 29 – “The Crew Cut Kids” – another nick-name for the Bulldogs penned by the talented LeBatard, needed only one win to advance to the College World Series; Miami needed two. With the score tied 1-1 in the bottom of the sixth, Chris Coker and Tony Skole each slammed home runs and the Hurricanes were finished. The 4-1 final moved the Dogs into their first College World Se-ries. In describing his home run over the phone to his oldest brother, Skole said that he “Canseco-ed one” against the Mark Light Field scoreboard. Whatever the comparisons were to his clout, it helped keep the dream season alive. In a move of utter class, Miami head coach Ron Fraser gathered the Bulldogs together on the artificial turf and congratulated them on a great win and great season and also gave them advice on how to deal with all the pressures of Omaha.

June 1 – Anthony Jenkins becomes only the sec-ond player in school history to be named First Team NCAA Division I All-America by the Ameri-can Baseball Coaches Association.

June 2 – The Citadel, after watching the first-round games played the day before, opens CWS play with an 8-2 loss to Louisiana State. The loss was The Citadel’s first in post-season play (after four straight wins in both the SoCon Tournament and Atlantic Regional). The Dogs face Cal State Fullerton next.

June 3 – At first look a loser’s bracket game be-tween The Citadel and the Titans did not figure to capture the imagination of a nationwide tele-vision audience on ESPN. By the time the 12-in-ning, three-hour, 31-minute drama had ended, it wound up being the best game of the 1990 Col-lege World Series and one of the greatest of all time. Tony Skole singled in Anthony Jenkins in the 12th inning, whose eye-popping slide and reach enabled him to just beat the throw home. That slide and sophomore reliever Hank Kraft’s final strikeout with the tying run on third to end the game allowed the Bulldogs to clinch the 8-7 win.

June 5 – The dream ends after falling 6-1 to a powerful LSU team.

Diary of a Dream SeasonHow They Got There1990 College World Series

LSU 8, The Citadel 2June 2, 1990 • College World Series Omaha, Neb.

by Bob Lang of The Post and CourierOMAHA, Neb. — The Citadel can blame Paul Byrd for spoiling its College World Series debut.

Byrd, a sophomore right-hander, picked off three Citadel runners and stranded five others to lead Louisiana State to an 8-2 victory before a crowd of 7,000 at Rosenblatt Sta-dium and a national television audience on ESPN.

…In Saturday’s game, which began under cloudy skies and ended in bright sunlight, The Citadel had 12 hits to LSU’s 14. But the score wasn’t closer because Byrd (17-5) kept getting the Tigers out of innings with Bulldogs on bases.

“We were getting our hits,” Citadel coach Chal Port said, “but Byrd was capable of shutting our runners down in scor-ing position. We never really took control away from him.”

Byrd’s biggest inning was the second, when The Citadel had a 1-0 lead and the bases loaded with one out. At that time, LSU coach Skip Bertman visited Byrd on the mound. The Citadel’s Dan McDonnell, a .203 hitter with 39 strikeouts on the season, and Gettys Glaze, a .319 hitter who doubled in the first inning and scored on a single by Billy Baker, were on deck.

“I felt Paul’s stuff could overpower these batters,” Bertman said he told Byrd.

Bertman was right. Byrd struck out both McDonnell and Glaze.

…The inning did crush The Citadel which wasn’t the same afterward, and it gave new life to LSU.

…Ken Britt, who started on the mound for The Citadel, was hoping for a similar ending in the bottom of the third with two outs. But he had no such luck, as Wes Grisham singled a 3-2 pitch to right to score Ron Lim.

Then Tim Clark, a 6-4, 205-pound junior, rocketed a 2-run blast over the wall in right field to give the Tigers a 5-2 lead. Seemingly in an instant, the Bulldogs were taken out of the game.

. . . “I don’t think I had my best stuff today,” said Britt (10-2), who gave up six runs on 10 hits through four innings to take the loss. “That is definitely one of the better teams I’ve faced. They seem to hit everything.”

Said Port: “I thought LSU was awesome.”

How They Got There1990 College World SeriesThe Citadel 8, Cal State-Fullerton 7

(12 innings)June 4, 1990 • College World Series

Omaha, Neb.by Bob lang of The post and Courier

OMAHA, Neb. — They don’t get much crazier than this. The Citadel overcame seven errors and a 4-1 deficit to eliminate Cal State-Fullerton, 8-7, in 12 in-nings Monday at sun-splashed Rosenblatt Stadium and remain alive in the College World Series.

“I thought that was one great game,” Citadel coach Chal Port said after the marathon contest that lasted three hours, 31 minutes. “It was not great baseball, but, my God that was exciting.”

The seventh-seeded Bulldogs kept an estimated crowd of 5,000 and an ESPN audience on edge while avoid-ing defeat when the Titans had potential winning runs in scoring position in the bottom of the ninth and 10th innings.

But Gettys Glaze and Hank Kraft came through with remarkable displays of relief pitching to defuse Ful-lerton’s threats. With one out, Glaze struck out 2 with runners on first and second in the 9th. Kraft struck out one and forced the other to ground out with one out and the bases loaded in the 10th.

Third baseman Tony Skole, who singled in a go-ahead run in the 10th, did it again in the 12th. This time the single scored Anthony Jenkins, who made a spectacular diving slide for the winning run.

Fullerton posed one final scare in the bottom of the 12th when the Titans had their best hitter, Mate’ Borgogno, at the plate with the potential tying run at second. But Kraft, in his 26th relief appearance this season, struck out Borgogno looking on three pitches.

… “As the old saying goes, it’s better to be lucky than good,” Port said. “That’s certainly true for this game.”

… “We had the situation we wanted,” Fullerton coach Larry Cochell said. “It just didn’t break for us. We had two or three situations we wanted. You have to credit The Citadel.”

The Bulldogs seemed to be headed for elimination af-ter six innings, trailing 4-1. But before they took the field in the seventh, Port made wholesale changes.

Port replaced starting pitcher Richard Shirer with Brad Stowell, moved Chris Coker from first base to shortstop, switched Billy Baker from right field to first base and put Mike Black in right field. After Stowell walked his first batter, Port replaced him with Glaze, who had been catching. Larry Hutto replaced Glaze behind the plate.

“What we did was not unusual for us,” Port said. “We won the championship game in the Southern Conference Tournament the same way. We’re limited in our person-nel, and I’ve got to ride the horses that we’ve got.”

LSU 6, The Citadel 1June 5, 1990 • College World Series

Omaha, Neb.by Bob lang of The post and Courier

Omaha, Neb.— The Citadel’s dream season is over.

Louisiana State pitcher John O’Donoghue provided the wakeup call, holding the Bulldogs to one run on eight hits to lead the Tigers to a 6-1 victory Tuesday night in a Col-lege World Series elimination game.

It was only appropriate that the largest crowd ever to watch a Citadel baseball game — 14,614 — was on hand at Rosenblatt Stadium to witness the last game of a most remarkable year for the Bulldogs, who finished with a 46-14 record.

The fans gave The Citadel a standing ovation while the teams shook hands and the stadium announcer said over the speaker system, “Thank you, The Citadel, in your first trip to the College World Series. You have a fine bunch of kids. Thank you coach Chal Port.”

… “We were very fortunate to tiptoe past The Citadel,” LSU coach Skip Bertman said. “They’re America’s team — touched by Abner Doubleday himself. A real field of dreams.”

…(Citadel right-handed pitcher Billy) Baker had a no-hitter going through four innings, but the Tigers killed that in the fifth by scoring three runs on four hits to take a 3-0 lead.

…The Bulldogs had runners in scoring position with two outs in both the fifth and sixth innings, but O’Donoghue ended the threats with a pop-up and strikeout, respec-tively.

In the seventh The Citadel started another two-out rally, which produced the team’s only run. Jason Rychlick got the rbi, blooping to left to score Chris Coker, who led off the inning with a single.

The Bulldogs didn’t threaten in the eighth or ninth innings. The game ended when Tony Skole was called out on strikes.

“We played as hard as we possibly could,” Port said. “I thought O’Donoghue did a magnificent job. He didn’t walk anybody and he kept us in the ballpark. When you do that, you’re going to win some games.

This is The CitadelThe Military College of South Carolina This is The CitadelThe Citadel is a state-supported comprehensive military college with the mission of educating principled leaders through its Corps of Cadets. Males and females are admitted to the undergraduate residential Corps of Cadets. In addition to the day program, undergraduate and graduate programs are offered through The Citadel Graduate College (CGC) in the evening.

The South Carolina Commission on Higher Education recognizes The Cita-del as the only specialized four-year college in the state. The Citadel, founded in 1842, is a co-educational military college with a rich and storied history. Located in Charleston, S.C., the institution offers a classic military education for young men and women who seek a college experi-ence that is intense, meaningful and academically strong. Graduates of The Citadel say that the disciplined lifestyle and friendships they forged here have a profoundly positive effect on their lives.

With an enrollment of more than 2,000, the Corps of Cadets is the na-tion’s largest military college program outside the service academies. All cadets are educated within a classic military system and about 40 per-cent of the graduating seniors earn military commissions. The remaining graduates attend graduate school or enter the job market.

The Citadel Graduate College, which is noted for The Citadel excellence in a civilian environment, serves about 1,100 residents of South Caro-lina’s Lowcountry.

Academic programs at the college are complimented by a strong com-mitment to service and emphatic support of an honor code that calls upon a cadet not to lie, cheat or steal or tolerate those who do. Since its found-ing in 1842, The Citadel’s emphasis on character, as well as intellect, has produced generations of graduates who have served their nation, their professions and their communities with distinction.

Corps of Cadets...All undergraduate students at The Citadel are members of the South Caro-lina Corps of Cadets, which numbers approximately 2,000 and represent nearly every state, as well as more than 20 countries. While roughly 40 percent of the graduates each year go into the armed services, all cadets participate in an ROTC program. On most days, cadets have physical fitness training and military instruction in addition to their regular college classes. Weekdays end with a formation and required evening study period.

Because The Citadel emphasizes corps unity, cadets cannot be married and all must live on campus in the barracks with their assigned company. Despite the challenges, cadets value their first year for the lessons in teamwork, self-discipline and time management. The disciplined lifestyle that begins in the knob year binds cadets into a lifelong, close-knit camaraderie that is one of the strongest forces in their lives after graduation.

Academic Programs...Because of the strength of the academic pro-gram, The Citadel has repeatedly been rated as a top regional institution in the annual rank-ings issued by U.S. News and World Report. The quality of the education at The Citadel combined with the availability of financial aid, the credentials of the faculty and the gradu-ation rate earned the institution the citation of Best College Value in the South in 2007. With more than 80 percent of its students returning each year, The Citadel enjoys one of the best retention records in the country. The Citadel’s 14 academic departments offer five bachelor’s degrees in 17 areas, six master’s degrees in 17 areas and specialist degrees in two areas.

The CGC also offers three undergraduate evening programs in business and engineering. The Citadel is the only col-

lege in South Carolina that offers undergraduate civil and electrical engineering degrees in the evening.

Alumni...Generations of Citadel graduates have served their nation, their state and their community with distinction. The Citadel graduates men and women with alert minds and sound bodies, who value honor, integrity, loyalty and patrio-tism, and who accept the responsibilities that accompany leadership. The Citadel remains a stronghold of duty, self-discipline and high ide-

als in a changing American society.

The Citadel leads South Carolina with the highest four-year Graduation Rate at 62.4 percent, while the national aver-age is only 30 percent.

Cadets receive gold stars for earning a 3.7 GPA or higher. The stars are worn on both sides of the collar of their dress uniforms and above the left pocket of their summer leave uniforms.

The Citadel ranks No. 3 nationally among public colleges and universities in the Carnegie classification in the percent-age of students who graduate in four years. That category includes colleges with master’s level programs.

The Princeton Review for 2008 named The Citadel School of

Business one of the nation’s 237 best business programs.

Among South Carolina’s public colleges and universities, The Citadel has the highest four-year graduation rate for ath-letes. More than 90 percent of cadet-student-athletes who have exhausted their four years of eligibility earn a diplo-ma.

The Princeton Review for 2008 placed The Citadel in its top tier of academic institutions according to an academic rank-ing that measures how hard students work and how much they get back for their efforts. The ranking considered such factors as hours students study outside of class, quality of the student body, class size, student assessment of professors and other resources.

AcademicsExcellence in the Education of Principled Leaders Band of GoldTraditionally received during Parents’ Weekend by first class cadets, The Citadel ring symbolizes

honor and the unity between The Citadel graduates. Worn proudly by alumni of all ages, cadets look forward to the day that they will be able to wear this band of gold with pride.

The ring has symbolized outstanding accomplishments both by the Corps of Cadets and South Carolina. Perhaps the most popular feature of the ring is the “Star of the West”, which commemorates the firing on

a Union supply steamer by a detachment of Citadel ca-dets in January 1861. This action was the powder keg which

set off the War Between the States.

The Citadel Ring: Symbolizing Unity Between Graduates

Every aspect of the ring is symbolic of the history and tradition of the Corps of Ca-dets from the Mexican War through both World Wars, to the present day. The Citadel is a military college and the leadership, courage and in-tegrity found in good officers is embodied by the sword, found on the left shank of the ring. Crossing the sword is the rifle, the symbol of the infan-try. Of equal importance in this world of political aggrandizement and perpetual military conflict are the concepts of freedom acquired and maintained only through a willingness to fight for it, represented by the rifle surmounted by the oak leaves of toughness and victory blessed by peace, represented by the laurel wreath.

On the right shank of the ring are found the United States and South Carolina flags, which depict the unity of the state and federal government. The cannon balls at the bottom of this shank indicate the continuing link between the Old Citadel on Marion Square and the Greater Citadel. When the college moved to its present location, the Civil War cannon balls piled before the Old Citadel were left behind. The oval crest has a reproduction of the Palmetto tree in its background. Aside from representing the state tree of South Carolina, the Palmetto symbolizes a cadet-trained regiment of infantry that fought in the Mexican War and it represents a fort, built of Palmetto logs, that repelled a large British invasion fleet during the Revolutionary War. The two oval shields at the base of the tree are replicas of the state seals.

Bulldogs: ... noted for their vigor and composed disposition... they are fiercely loyal and their grip is very powerful against resistance.

The Citadel has two live bulldog mascots, Boo IX and General, whose main duty is to provide morale for the Corps of Cadets, faculty and staff and all of the Bulldog athletic teams. Other duties include barking at opposing teams, eating numerous dog biscuits throughout the day and being pampered by the cadets that help take care of them while school is in session.

GeneralGeneral, who was born June 18, 2003, became the first live mascot to live on The Citadel campus since the 1950s. The mascot program was created by the Class of 2003, which wanted to leave a gift to the college. The class raised $1,000 toward the program’s startup. General was donated in August 2003 by the late Hazel Gro-shon of James Island, S.C.

General comes from a long line of bulldog royalty. He is the nephew of Uga V, the former mascot for the University of Georgia. General’s other relatives include the bulldog representatives for the United States Marine Corps and Mississippi State University. General was named by the Corps of Cadets following a contest to find the best name.

Boo IXBoo IX was born on Sept. 30, 2003, and was donated by Fred Ducker, class of ‘63. He joins General as a member of the two-dog mascot team that attends special events, football games, parades and anything involving the Corps of Cadets. Boo IX is named after Lt. Col. Thomas Nugent Courvoisie, a former assistant commandant,

and comes from a long line of Bulldogs that have been serving The Citadel for more than 15 years.

The Honor Code is fairly simple. This code, while simple, offers the key to living and maintaining an honorable life. Cadets are trained that there is never a situation in which they should participate in, or tolerate, dishonorable activities. These core values of honor and integrity are exactly the values which allow Citadel cadets and alumni to improve their organizations and their

communities.

Honor“A Cadet does not Lie, Cheat, or Steal, nor Tolerate those who do.” LeadershipConquering Challenges

Honor is the most cher-ished principle at The Citadel. In today’s post-corporate-scandal soci-ety, honor, integrity and ethics are in high demand. The Citadel strives to achieve excellence in the education of prin-cipled leaders, also known as the “whole person” concept. The Honor Code encompasses all aspects of cadet life, from academic integrity to personal integrity. It has evolved from an unwritten tradition known as the “code of the gentleman” to a formalized code in September of 1955, when the Corps of Cadets unanimously voted to establish The Honor Code. The development of a cadet into a principled leader is a four-tiered process that includes knowing, adhering, believing and leading. Its culmination is seen in the cadets who internalize the Code and the alumni who continually apply it throughout their lives.

Cadet PrayerAlmighty God, the source of light and strength, we implore Thy blessing on this our beloved institution, that it may continue true to

its high purposes.

Guide and strengthen those upon whom rests the authority of gov-ernment; enlighten with wisdom those who teach and those who learn; and grant to all of us that through sound learning and firm leadership, we may prove ourselves worthy citizens of our country, devoted to truth, given to unselfish service, loyal to every obliga-

tion of life and above all to Thee.

Preserve us faithful to the ideals of The Citadel, sincere in fel-lowship, unswerving in duty, finding joy in purity and confidence

through a steadfast faith.

Grant to each one of us, in his/her own life, a humble heart, a steadfast purpose, and a joyful hope, with a readiness to endure hardship and suffer if need be, that truth may prevail among us and that Thy will may be done on earth. Through Jesus Christ, Our

Lord. Amen.

Honor“A Cadet does not Lie, Cheat, or Steal, nor Tolerate those who do.”The Krause Initiative in Ethics and Leadership, in support of The Citadel Vision, is a college-wide effort to enhance lead-ership development and ethical growth at The Citadel.

Established in July of 2003, the mission of the Krause Initia-tive is to provide institutional programs and activities that will help strengthen The Citadel’s preparation of principled lead-ers. Supporting The Citadel’s core values, the Krause Initia-tive promotes the ethical growth and leadership development of our students while serving as a model for peer institutions.

Funded by a generous endowment from Bill Krause (Citadel Class of 1963) and his wife, Gay, the Krause Initiative is a multifaceted program that serves as a resource for institu-tional and regional outreach activities while promoting lead-ership and ethics on campus.

Directed by LTC Jeff Weart, the Krause Initiative will produce and promote developmental policies and instruction, coordi-nate interactions for cadets, students, faculty/staff, and serve as an agent for outreach efforts in the area of ethics and leader development.

LeadershipConquering Challenges

Academics: We produce graduates who have insight into the issues, ideas and values that are important to society and pos-

sess the skills necessary to deal with them successfully.

Discipline: We operate a leadership laboratory which em-phasizes a structured environment, acceptance of responsibil-

ity, self-confidence and service to others.

Diversity: We promote diversity in all segments of our campus community and in all aspects of college life.

Duty: We emphasize the importance of individual accountabil-ity and the moral obligation of responsibility for the welfare

of others.

Morality: We believe that an individual’s character is of ut-most importance and, therefore, we provide training which em-

phasizes ethical principles and core values.

Honor: We adhere to a code which teaches that uncompromis-ing personal integrity is the primary guide in all situations.

Sir, Yes, Sir • Sir, No, Sir • Sir, No Excuse, Sir“...three permissible knob answers: ‘Sir, yes, sir’ and ‘Sir, no, sir’ and—I liked this third one best of all—’Sir, no excuse, sir.’ By golly, I think, we ought to send the entire U.S. Congress down here to learn

answer number three.”

The Honorable Ronald Reagan40th President of the United States

May 15, 1993

Whatever their major, all cadets will graduate with a “dual degree” in lead-ership. They learn about attention to detail, respect, time management, and

discipline.

“Leadership is about integrity, trust and people. The Citadel, with its mission to prepare graduates to be principled leaders, is all about integrity, trust and people. There is no question in my mind that, had I not attended The Citadel to learn these values, I would not have come close to achieving what success I have

been fortunate enough to achieve.”

“The Citadel is a place of pride and tradition. A place where the standards are high, the discipline is strong and leaders are born. The men and women of this institution represent a sense of honor and accomplishment. And I am proud to be with you today.”... “in all that is to come, I know the graduates of The Citadel will bring credit to America, to the military and to this great institution. In

the words of your school song, you will go where you’ve always gone... ‘in the paths our fathers showed us. Peace and Honor, God and Country -- we will fight for thee.’”

The Honorable George W. Bush43rd President of the United States

Why The Citadel“What you Tolerate, you Define.”

“Without question, The Citadel experience opened a world of opportunity for me. I can think of no better preparation for the things I have done or hope to do.”

Dr. Harvey W. Schiller, ’60Former Executive Director,U.S. Olympic Committee

“...I read this friendly advice in the book: ‘When you receive an order, carry it out to the best of your abil-ity. Never argue or offer suggestions which you think might be better. This is not in your best interest.’ Well, it seems to me that The Citadel has a few things to teach the Cabinet and the Executive Branch, too! In fact,

maybe we should just put the whole federal government through cadet training!”

The honorable ronald reagan40th President of the United States

“What you tolerate, you define. And that is what makes this institution so unique. Regardless of class or cadet rank, The Citadel graduate more than anything else carries the reputation for integrity that is unsurpassed by any institution in his nation.”

The Honorable Steve Buyer, ’80U.S. Congressman

“At the center of The Citadel education, that rock that anchors it’s soul, is the honor system. I found the honor system simple and profound; majestic and life-changing: A cadet does not lie, cheat or steal, nor tol-erate those who do.”

Pat Conroy, ’67

Award-winning author

“Citadel graduates have become successful leaders in both the public and the private sectors, as well as having been involved in every American military conflict since the Mexican war. Thanks to its effective teaching techniques, The Citadel has earned an enviable reputation as one of the best public colleges in the United States, and there is not a better military school anywhere in this nation than The Citadel.”

2009 Preview

4545

After fielding a relatively young ballclub the past two seasons, The Citadel Bulldogs are looking forward to reaping the benefits of two seasons of gaining experience. Sporting a bal-anced roster that has almost as many seniors as it does juniors, sophomores and freshmen, the team is hoping to get off to a strong start with a challenging 2009 schedule.

Following a very productive fall practice sea-son, The Citadel has the tools in place to field a very competitive team in 2009. The return of All-American Richard Jones behind the plate and three-time All-Southern Conference hon-oree Sonny Meade at the plate lead a team filled with experience.

Fielding the Southern Conference’s top pitch-ing staff in 2008, 11 pitchers return for the 2009 season as the Bulldogs look to maintain their perch atop one of the nation’s toughest offensive conferences. Seniors Wes Wrenn and Matt Crim lead a pitching staff that led the nation in pickoffs and the league in ERA last season. With three new pitchers on the staff in 2009, the Bulldogs are poised to continue to remain in the top third of the conference.

Defensively, the Bulldogs were one-thousandth of a percentage point away from finishing in the top three in the Southern Conference last sea-son and a year of experience should lead to an even more successful season in 2009. Jones, a Freshman All-America selection in 2007, re-turns behind the plate along with senior Sid Fallaw. The tandem of Jones and Fallaw gives the Bulldogs the two most experienced catch-ers in the league.

Head coach Fred Jordan continuously preach-es that successful teams build through the middle and the Bulldogs have those tools in place in 2009. In addition to the experience be-hind the plate, the middle infield duo of Bryan Altman and Kyle Jordan have two years of ex-perience playing together while redshirt sopho-more Matt Simonelli returns to center field after redshirting the 2008 season due to an injury.

The offense has the tools to succeed if the team can keep the line-up moving. With the return of the 3-4-5-6 hitters from the 2008 line-up, the Bulldogs again have the experience to be successful. Meade, Jones and Chris McGuiness will combine to form the heart of a line-up looking to become a force in the South-ern Conference.

POSITION-BY-POSITIONThe following is a position-by-position look at the 2009 Bulldogs…

PitchingThe 2009 Bulldogs feature an experienced pitching staff that is expected to keep the team in games until the later innings. With Wrenn and Crim, The Citadel has two seniors who

have pitched a great deal of baseball to date. Combined, the senior duo has logged over 522 innings on the mound for the Bulldogs. Wrenn, who enters the season with 289.0 innings pitched in his career, will likely set the school record for career innings pitched this season. Wrenn’s 289.0 innings pitched is seventh in career history at The Citadel and is close to Brian Wiley’s record of 316.1 innings pitched amassed from 1996-99. Wrenn has the ability to establish consistency early on as the right-hander pitched a stretch of 29.1 innings early last season without allowing a walk.

Meanwhile Crim has averaged six wins a year on the mound for the Bulldogs and if he con-tinues with that average rate of success, the southpaw will finish his career around the middle of the school’s top 10 charts for career wins.

Sophomore Asher Wojciechowski led the team with 78 strikeouts as a freshman last season while sophomore Matt Talley tallied nine pick-offs throughout the year. Both are expected to have solid and consistent seasons in 2009 and round out a talented rotation.

Juniors Raymond Copenhaver and Matt Reif-snider give the Bulldogs two veteran bullpen arms to be used late in the game while Reif-snider has the ability to perform as the team’s fifth starter this season. Chris Boyce, Drew Mahaffey and Nick Sprowls have the capabil-ity to succeed in certain match-up situations. The addition of TJ Clarkson, Zach Garrett and Jeremy Long add youth and even more depth to the pitching staff.

CatchingWith two talented veteran backstops return-ing in Jones and Sid Fallaw, the Bulldogs are confident in the abilities of the men behind the plate. Jones and Fallaw combined for a .985 fielding percentage in 2008 and posted a .989 fielding percentage the year before. The Bull-dog backstops ranked atop or near the top of the Southern Conference both years and are expected to do the same in 2009.

Jones is expected to be in the heart of the line-up offensively every day this season while Fallaw is near the top of the depth chart for the designated hitters. Both have played a lot of baseball to this point and will see action in most, if not all, games this season. Jones split the off-season between the Cape Cod League and the Coastal Plains League, gaining valu-able experience and improving offensively and defensively. That should translate into a suc-cessful 2009 season for the junior catcher.

Jones and Fallaw return after limiting oppo-nents to a Southern Conference-best 45 sto-len bases against while opponents, wary of the cannons fielded by Jones and Fallaw, only attempted 60 stolen bases against, fewer than

any other team in the league.

INFIELDThe middle infield has shed its youth and with two consecutive seasons under their belt, second baseman Bryan Altman and shortstop Kyle Jordan bring good experience to a middle infield that was second in the Southern Confer-ence in double plays last season. The Bulldogs hope that the 2009 season brings continued improvement to a middle infield whose goal is to continue to make the routine play.

Both Altman and Jordan improved steadily throughout the 2008 season while combining to play in every game. Altman could see some time at short with freshman Nick Orvin or se-nior Johnny Dangerfield taking over the reigns at second should that happen.

The experienced tandem of Altman and Jor-dan, combined with reliable first baseman Chris McGuiness, makes one of the better de-fensive infields The Citadel has fielded in the last couple of years. McGuiness is a reliable first baseman who can read infield throws and seamlessly adjusts to make plays happen.

The main question facing the Bulldog infield this season is who will step up and fill Matt Ar-nold’s shoes at third base. That remains one of the biggest question marks coming out of fall practice. Entering spring practice, freshman David Greene leads the race for the starting job with Johnny Dangerfield, Legare Jones and even Altman in the running. Replacing Ar-nold will be a challenge for whomever wins the job in preseason training as the now graduated infielder was generally a reliable and experi-enced defensive player.

The infield’s goal is to just make the routine play in 2009 and to limit the errors. With experi-ence at three of the four positions, the Bulldogs have the opportunity to excel defensively this season.

OutfieldSimilar to the infield, most of the outfield returns talent and experience for the 2009 season. The coaches emphasized being fundamentally sound and not allowing the extra base in work-ing with the outfielders during the fall season. With decent arm strength and above average speed among the outfielders, opposing hitters will be challenged to get an extra-base hit this season.

Senior Sonny Meade, who has garnered All-Southern Conference honors all three years, returns to right field and brings a powerful bat with him. Meade led the team with a .393 batting average and was second in the ranks with a .528 slugging percentage last season. Meade also led the team in hits (90) and was tied for third in extra-base hits with 16 doubles and five home runs. A true student-athlete,

Meade will be leading by example in the field and in the classroom as he sports an impres-sive 3.8 cumulative grade point average.

Redshirt sophomore Matt Simonelli has speed and a good glove and returns to centerfield after redshirting last season after a wild pitch broke his hand. Before his injury, Simonelli was off to a great start and had developed himself into a reliable lead-off man. Simonelli had a productive fall and has worked hard to rebound from his injury.

Left field could be the position that has rota-tion capabilities and could have some match-up opportunities. Senior Trey Thomas won the job during fall practice and it will be his to lose in the spring. Thomas spent time in left field along with senior Brian Shubsda, who will also be competing for the left field spot. Freshman Justin Mackert, a product of St. Ignatius High School in Cleveland, will also be challenging for the position.

HittingThe Bulldogs worked extremely hard in the offseason in addressing the inside game. The challenge for The Citadel in 2009 is to keep the line-up moving. The coaches have put empha-sis on the bunting game and on the hitting and running game and are hoping that emphasis will yield results in the spring. Riley Park is not known to be a hitter-friendly park and with the majority of the games at home this season, the team’s goal is to be one of the top two or three executing teams in the league. Execution is a mainstay of the Fred Jordan coaching philoso-phy and if the team can execute the game plan

in certain situations, they should prove to be successful.

The coaching staff believes the 2009 team has good offensive experience in the line-up. The coaches were disappointed in the 2008 squad offensively, but it was not because of effort. Fred Jordan and the rest of the coaching staff believe that the team will be a better offensive club this year than they were last year.

ScheduleOnce again, a rugged slate awaits the Bulldogs this spring. The 2009 slate features a very de-manding schedule with great competition. The team is fortunate to have a few more home games this season both from an economical standpoint and from a fan support standpoint. An early season tournament featuring Mar-shall, Radford and Tennessee Tech, along with a four-game series hosting Air Force, highlights the 2009 home schedule.

Success breeds confidence and confidence is something that must be achieved early on to be successful. The first nine games lead-ing up to the conference-opening weekend series against Elon are important to establish confidence and relaxed aggression. With the non-conference schedule being as demanding as always, the development of some depth in the team’s pitching staff should pay dividends down the stretch.

The Southern Conference, as always, is the number one mid-major conference in the coun-try by far. The Bulldogs open the league slate the third weekend of the season with 2008

league and tournament champion Elon return-ing to “The Joe” for the first time after advanc-ing to the NCAA Regionals last season.

The addition of Samford has created schedul-ing challenges for all teams in the conference this season and the Bulldogs will be faced with back-to-back road conference series. The Citadel will face that challenge early on, travel-ing to Appalachian State and Western Carolina in consecutive weekends the fourth and fifth weeks of the season.

It will be important for the team to be able to handle those road weekends in such a deep league as the Southern Conference. There is no longer an opportunity of having a weekend that is not like a championship series. Amplify that with having to be on the road for consecu-tive weekends and you have the makings of a very, very difficult schedule.

This year’s Southern Conference Tournament departs from Charleston for the first time in 20 years and will be held in Greenville, S.C. at West End Field. An added challenge is the return to the limitation of eight teams into the tournament and the elimination of the play-in day.

Fred Jordan is the winningest active coach in the Southern Conference.

Fred Jordan, the second-longest tenured Southern Conference Coach, is four conference wins away from his 300th SoCon Victory.

In his coaching career, Fred Jordan has registered over 800 wins.

Fred Jordan, a former Citadel baseball letterman, is in his 18th sea-son at the helm of his alma mater’s baseball program and holds a 586-428 (.578) overall record, all with the Bulldogs. Jordan has instilled the ideals of belief, faith and trust into The Citadel baseball. Players under Jordan are known for playing “The Citadel Way”— Long, Hard and Fast. The Citadel Baseball has been recognized for its tenacious pace of play and tremendous discipline that Jor-dan sets forth in the everyday rigors of practice and throughout the regular season.

He has led the Bulldogs to six Southern Conference Tournament championships and six NCAA Regional appearances in the last 12 years, including the 2004 SoCon Championship and an appear-ance at the 2004 NCAA Regional held in Columbia, S.C. No other NCAA Division I baseball program has been a part of their confer-ence championship more than The Citadel in the past 12 years.

In his 17 seasons, Jordan’s Bulldogs average more than 34 victories a year, including 41 victories in 1999, which currently ranks as the second highest win total in Citadel history. Jordan hit a milestone in 2006 as he picked up his 500th career win. No other coach has ever reached the 500 mark as quickly as Jordan did. In fact, Chal Port is the only other coach in school history to earn 500 victories.

Jordan is considered the dean of Southern Conference baseball coaches as he has won 10 Southern Conference championships, seven more than the nearest competitor. Jordan stresses strong pitching and solid defense in order to win championships. Under

Jordan, The Citadel has won the pitching title eight of the last 17 years and seven of the last 14. Jordan has had 19 players drafted in the Major League Baseball Amateur Draft from The Citadel.

Under Jordan, the Bulldogs have garnered 42 All-Southern Con-ference honors while bringing home another 42 All-SoCon Tourna-ment honors, including a record seven in 2004. He has coached one Southern Conference Male Athlete of the Year, five Southern Conference Pitchers of the Year, four Southern Conference Fresh-men of the Year, one Southern Conference Player of the Year, and six tournament Most Valuable Players.

Jordan has been honored as the Southern Conference Coach of the Year three times, the last being in 2003.

Of Jordan’s 19 draftees, 13 were pitchers and one is currently on a Major League 40-man roster. Dallas McPher-son led all professional players in home runs in 2008 with the Class AAA Albuquerque Iso-topes before being called up to the Florida Marlins late in the season. Britt Reames, re-cently retired from professional baseball and now the pitching coach at Furman, became the first-ever Bulldog to ever participate in the Major League Baseball postseason with the St. Louis Cardinals in 2000.

Over the last 10 seasons, Jordan’s teams have had the eyes of Charleston upon them. The Citadel has been ranked in the top-35 in national attendance for 10 consecutive seasons. In 2001, the Bulldogs finished 25th in the nation, the highest ever for a Citadel team, with 53,501 fans turning out at Riley Park to see the Bulldogs play. In 2004, over 58,000 fans streamed through the gates of Riley Park to help set a single-season atten-dance record.

The Citadel continued its streak of upsetting nationally-ranked pro-grams in 2008 as the Bulldogs topped No. 23 Louisville in 10 in-nings, 1-0, at Riley Park. The game pitted former Bulldogs against current Bulldogs as the Cardinals were led by head coach Dan McDonnell ’92 and assistant coach Chris Lemonis ’92. The 2008 season witnessed The Citadel pitching staff lead the nation with 28 pickoffs and the Bulldogs brought home four SoCon Pitcher of the Week honors awarded to four different pitchers, a first for the program.

In 2007, over 57,500 fans attended Bulldog baseball games, which brought the total attendance to watch The Citadel Baseball in Riley Park to almost 450,000 (since 1998).

The Citadel surpassed the 30-win total in 2007 for the 15th time in 16 seasons under Jordan. Included in that was The Citadel’s 7-6 upset victory over No. 1 South Carolina as the Bulldogs rallied from a late 6-1 deficit in the sixth inning. Also, for the third time in four years, The Citadel found itself in the Southern Conference Tourna-ment Championship game.

The Bulldogs garnered national attention in 2006 as Chris Swauger was named National Hitter of the Week to open the season. Swauger was one of two players to earn All-SoCon honors and fin-ished the season second nationally in triples. Closer Link Saunders was tabbed to the Stopper of the Year Watch List as he was consis-tently in the top-five in the nation in saves.

Jordan also had two more players continue to the professional ranks as left-hander Ryan Owens signed with the Houston Astros and shortstop Matt Matulia was drafted in the 24th round by the Chicago Cubs.

The Citadel played 12 games against nationally ranked opponents, including an upset over No. 3 Nebraska. In the Southern Confer-ence Tournament, the Dogs battled to knock out top-seeded Elon en route to the championship game as The Citadel captured the runner-up spot and had two Bulldogs named to the All-Tournament team.

In 2005, Jordan had his 37th player named to the Southern Confer-ence All-Tournament team in shortstop Matt Matulia. Matulia reg-istered a .333 batting average with two doubles, two home runs and six RBI in four games. Two seniors on the 2005 squad also received Southern Conference Player of the Week honors as Chris Ard and pitcher Griff Beckham each earned the award for their per-formance.

Four seniors left their mark on Citadel baseball history. Ard, Josh Stackley and Jon Aughey each made their way into multiple top-10 lists, while Shannon Sprouse moved into seventh all-time in saves.

Relief pitcher Link Saunders emerged to lead the Southern Con-ference in opposing batting average (.234) during his sophomore campaign. Saunders also finished third in the Southern Confer-ence with a 3.15 earned run average.

In 2004, The Citadel finished 21-9 in the Southern Conference and had three players named to the 2003 All-Southern Conference squad; Chip Cannon and Jonathan Ellis were honored as members of the first-team, while Josh Stackley was named to the second team. A record seven Bulldogs earned all-tournament honors after leading The Citadel to its seventh SoCon Tournament title. Jor-dan’s 2004 team also became the first Bulldog team since 1998 to win a NCAA Regional game as they downed Coastal Carolina 10-1 in the Regionals.

The 2004 Bulldog club assaulted the record books like no other team in recent history as 19 career and/or season records were ei-ther tied or broken. The marks that standout are Cannon’s 17 hom-ers, 71 base on balls and .990 fielding percentage, Stackley’s 274 at-bats, and Ellis’ 18 games started, nine complete games, 136.1 innings pitched and 12 wins. The 2004 team also left its mark on the field with a .974 team fielding percentage that broke the previ-ous record of .968 set by the 2003 club.

Ellis and Cannon took home several national honors as well, includ-ing All-American laurels. Cannon was quickly tabbed as a clutch power hitter and several teams took notice as he set a new South-ern Conference and Citadel record with 71 walks in 2004, a mark which also led the nation. The dynamic pair capped off a great season by getting drafted on the first day of Major League Baseball Amateur draft. Ellis went in the sixth round to San Diego, while Cannon was picked by Toronto in the eighth round.

The 2003 club finished 19-11 in the Southern Conference and had four players named to the 2003 All-Southern Conference squad; Chris Ard and Chip Cannon were honored as members of the first-team and Brook Dantzler and Matt Hamer, who finished his career second on the all-time appearances list with 108, were listed on the second-team. Freshman centerfielder Trent Weathers, who played in all 57 of the Bulldogs’ games, was honored by the Southern Con-ference Media Association as the Freshman of the Year.

With national powers Miami, North Carolina State, Florida State and South Carolina on the slate in 2003, Fred Jordan led his ball club to victories over the Hurricanes, Wolfpack and Gamecocks. He also became the fastest Citadel coach to reach the 400-win pla-teau as he accomplished the feat on March 8 with a 7-3 victory over Western Carolina.

The 2002 team featured one All-American, two All-Southern Confer-ence performers and the Southern Conference’s Pitcher and Male Athlete of the Year. The 2002 team was no different than any other Jordan coached club, as they were one of the best pitching teams in the country. The Bulldogs’ earned run average ranked in the top-25 nationally and right-handed pitcher Randy Corn proved to be the workhorse of the Bulldogs’ staff as he saved 13 games, tying a then school record. Corn’s 1.37 ERA was good enough for second

lowest in the country and earned him Southern Conference Pitcher of the Year honors. Joining Corn in the category of pitching dominance was junior reliever Matt Hamer, who compiled a 9-2 record to earn second-team All-SoCon honors.

When remarking about the 2002 team it is im-possible to forget 13th-round draft pick T.A. Fulmer and team batting leader David Griffin. Fulmer, who threw the fifth no hitter in school history, became the 17th Bulldog selected since Jordan took over. Griffin, perhaps the epitome of Jordan’s style, went on to play minor league baseball, carrying on, along with Fulmer, the Bulldog tradition of graduating players to the professional ranks.

The 2001 team featured three All-Americans, four first-team All-Southern Conference per-formers and the Southern Conference’s Pitcher and Player of the Year. The Bulldogs’ earned run average ranked in the top-25 nationally and were led by Corn, who compiled an 8-3 record

and 12 saves to earn second-team All-America honors.

When mentioning the 2001 team it is impossible not to mention the names of second-round draft pick Dallas McPherson and Southern Conference Player of the Year Philip Hartig. McPherson, the 57th overall selection of the Anaheim Angels in the 2001 draft, became the third-highest selected Bulldog in school history. Hartig, perhaps the most prolific offensive power in Southern Conference history, set 10 Citadel and six Southern Conference all-time records dur-ing his senior season and teamed with McPherson to be the most dominant offensive duo in the Southern Conference.

The 2000 championship team featured two all-Americans, three first-team All-Southern Conference performers and two second team All-Southern Conference members. Junior centerfielder Chris Morris led the nation by stealing 84 bases and established the sin-gle season Southern Conference record. Those 84 swipes also moved the Southern Conference all-time record for stolen bases to 147. Morris was named first team All-America by Baseball Weekly and also earned first team All-Southern Conference honors.

In typical Jordan fashion, the 2000 team was not without strong pitching. Senior right-hander Ron Colvard posted 11 wins, which stands as the second highest total in school history. Along with Colvard, senior closer Jay Morgan posted 10 saves, which was the highest total since 1995 when Donald Morillo posted 13 saves for Jordan’s second Southern Conference championship team.

In 1999, Jordan’s team posted a career best 41 victories en route to the regular season crown and the Southern Conference Tourna-ment championship. The Bulldogs participated in the NCAA Re-gional in Tallahassee, Fla., and Jordan was named the Southern Conference’s Coach of the Year for the second time in his career.

In 1998, The Citadel won 37 games, marking the fourth-highest single-season victory total in school history, and won the Southern Conference Tournament crown by outscoring its four opponents by a combined score of 37-3. In addition, Jordan saw three members of his 1998 club selected in the Major League Baseball Amateur Draft. In the spring of 1998, he had three players with 4.0 grade point averages, five Gold Star (3.8+ GPA) recipients and 17 AD’s Honor Roll (3.0+ GPA and/or 2.75 cumulative GPA) members.

His 1995 squad captured the Southern Conference regular season crown by five games, the Southern Conference Tournament Cham-pionship and made their second consecutive trip to NCAA Regional play.

The 1994 Bulldogs captured the Southern Conference Tournament, won the play-in series with the Ohio Valley Conference tournament champion and earned the right to participate in the NCAA East Re-gional at Clemson. The Citadel advanced to the quarterfinal round of play before bowing out with a 5-1 loss to Notre Dame. This was accomplished with only five freshmen and two seniors in the every-day lineup.

Jordan, 51, was named The Citadel’s head coach on Jan. 14, 1992, only 28 days prior to the team’s season-opener against Coastal Carolina in Conway. He replaced his former college head coach Chal Port, who retired prior to the 1992 season after coaching base-ball at The Citadel from 1965-1991. Jordan is the fifth head coach in modern-day Citadel baseball history (since 1954).

Jordan is a 1979 graduate of The Citadel where he received a bach-elor of science degree in physical education and a master’s degree in education in 1987. He lettered as a pitcher in 1976, 1977 and 1979 for the Bulldogs under Port. He won an Ace (Pitching) Award in 1979 and was a member of the 1979 Southern Conference Base-ball Championship squad.

Prior to his appointment at The Citadel, Jordan had been one of the most respected high school baseball coaches in the state of South Carolina. He was the head coach at Stratford High School from 1984-1991 before The Citadel called. He led the Knights to an overall record of 156-53 (.746), and during his tenure at Stratford, the Knights were Lower State runners-up in 1988 and 1989.

At Fort Johnson High and James Island High schools in Charles-ton, Jordan led the Trojans and Rams to an overall record of 70-34 (.673) from 1980-83, including the AAAA Lower State Champion-ship in 1983 at James Island. His 1980 and ‘81 Fort Johnson teams were AAA District runners-up.

In 12 years as a high school head coach, Jordan led each of his teams to a state playoff appearance and all 12 squads finished no worse than second place in their conference. His 1988 Stratford team racked up 20 wins in a row en route to a No. 28 ranking by Collegiate Baseball. His 1989 squad started the season ranked 20th by USA Today and was ranked between 20th and 25th the entire season.

Jordan was named Region 6-AAAA Coach of the Year in 1987, 1988 and 1989, and served as the head coach of the Lowcoun-try All-Star team in 1991. He served as the assistant coach of the South Carolina All-Star team in 1989.

His high school coaching record in 12 seasons was 226-87 (.722).

Jordan had over 30 high school players go on to play collegiate baseball. He coached four professional draft choices, six Lowcoun-try Players of the Year and 48 all-conference picks. Two of Jordan’s players in high school - Lee Glaze and Anthony Jenkins - went on to become Southern Conference Athletes of the Year at The Citadel and earn induction into the school’s athletic hall of fame.

A Charleston native and 1975 graduate of Garrett High School, he is married to the former Debra Mattox of Charleston and the cou-ple has two children, Kristen, who graduated from Clemson in the spring of 2004, and Kyle, who is a junior on The Citadel baseball team.

BeCKleYdavideighTh seasonThe CiTadel, ’96

WhaT You need To KnoWDavid Beckley is one of the longest-tenured assistant coaches at The Citadel and in the Southern Conference.

David Beckley has had four players go on to play profes-sional baseball in the past five years.

David Beckley finished his career as the top base stealer in Southern Conference history.

David Beckley enters his eighth season with the Bulldogs as an assistant coach and his third as the recruiting coordinator. Beckley will continue to work with the infielders and base runners for the 2009 season.

Under Beckley, the Bulldogs have flourished defensively. Head coach Fred Jordan has always preached that good pitching and solid defense wins championships, and Beckley firmly believes in that system.

After setting the school’s fielding percentage record at .968 in 2003, all the 2004 club did was smash it with a .974 fielding percentage. Beckley’s de-fense only committed 69 errors in 2,633 chances and tallied a record-break-ing 762 assists, surpassing the previous mark of 715 set in 1994. The solid defense continued in 2008 with a .965 fielding percentage.

With such a solid defense behind them, Jordan can allow his pitchers to pitch without any fear of being let down by a defender.

In 2006, Matt Matulia was drafted by the Chicago Cubs and was a solid defender at shortstop as a four-year starter. Matulia also made an assault on many Citadel records during his career as a Bulldog.

Three other Bulldog infielders have reached the professional ranks under Beckley’s tutelage. Second baseman Jon Aughey signed as a free agent with the Kansas City Royals in 2005 and first baseman Chip Cannon was drafted in the eighth round by the Toronto Blue Jays in 2004 after receiv-ing All-Southern Conference accolades. Cannon was also named to the Louisiville Slugger/TPX All-America Team in his final season as a Bulldog. Shortstop David Griffin played with the Evansville Otters of the independent Frontier League in 2002 and 2003.

Beckley’s other task is to put pressure on opposing pitchers and defenses by coaching the Bulldogs base runners. A solid base stealer himself, Beck-ley swiped 103 bags in four seasons as a Bulldog. He has taken his ap-proach to base running and instilled it into the current Citadel base runners. His guidance is beginning to pay dividends as several current Bulldogs are quickly becoming threats on the base paths.

Jon Aughey was one swipe shy of the career top-10 list in stolen bases as he recorded 65 over the four years he played for the Bulldogs. Chris Ard swiped a season-high 29 bases in 2005, giving him a career total of 54.

Aughey and Ard are not the only players to benefit from Beckley’s knowl-edge. Trent Weathers was a huge base stealing threat to any club in the conference as he totaled 50 stolen bases in 68 attempts over the four years he spent at The Citadel.

Beckley played a pivotal part in the development of the 2003 Southern Conference Freshman of the Year, Weathers. Weathers not only played in every game for the Bulldogs in 2003 and hit over .300, but Beckley helped hone the fleet-footed Weathers into one of the nation’s leading base stealing threats. Weathers broke The Citadel’s freshman stolen base mark with 25 steals in only 30 attempts.

Beckley is no stranger to The Citadel as he was a four-year letterwinner under coach Fred Jordan. Among the smartest base runners in conference

history, the James Island native finished his career as the top base stealer in Southern Conference history as he eclipsed the century mark and finished with 104 stolen bases.

The Southern Conference, which began its 88th season of intercollegiate competition in 2008, is a national leader in emphasizing the development of the student-athlete and in helping to build lifelong leaders and role models.

The Southern Conference has been on the forefront of innovation and originality in developing creative solutions to address issues facing intercollegiate athletics. From establishing the first conference basketball tournament (1921), tackling the issue of freshmen eligibility (1922), developing women’s championships (1984) and becom-ing the first conference to install the three-point goal in basketball (1980), the Southern Conference has been a pioneer.

The Southern Conference is the nation’s fifth-oldest NCAA Division I collegiate athletic association. Only the Big Ten (1896), the Missouri Valley (1907), the Pacific 10 (1915) and the Southwestern Athletic (1920) conferences are older in terms of origination.

Academic excellence has been a major part of the South-ern Conference’s tradition. Hundreds of Southern Con-ference student-athletes have been recognized on ESPN The Magazine/CoSIDA Academic All-America and all-district teams. A total of 19 Rhodes Scholarship winners have been selected from conference institutions.

The Conference currently consists of 12 members in five states throughout the Southeast and sponsors 19 varsity sports and championships that produce participants for NCAA Division I Championships.

The Southern Conference offices are located in the his-toric Beaumont Mill in Spartanburg, S.C. A textile mill that was in operation from 1880 until 1999, Beaumont Mill was renovated in 2004 and today offers the league first class meeting areas and offices as well as a spacious library for storage of the conference’s historical documents.

MeMBerShiP hiStoryOn Feb. 25, 1921, representatives from 14 of the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association’s (SIAA) 30 members met at Atlanta’s Piedmont Hotel to establish the South-ern Intercollegiate Conference. On hand at the inaugural meeting were officials from Alabama, Alabama Polytech-nic Institute (Auburn), Clemson, Georgia, Georgia School of Technology (Georgia Tech), Kentucky, Maryland, Mis-sissippi A&M (Mississippi State), North Carolina, North Carolina State, Tennessee, Virginia, Virginia Polytechnic Institute (Virginia Tech) and Washington & Lee.

Dr. S.V. Sanford of Georgia was chosen as acting chair-man and N.W. Dougherty of Tennessee was named sec-retary. The decision to form a new athletic conference was motivated by the desire to have a workable number of conference games for each league member. With 30 schools in the SIAA by the early 1920s, it was impossible to play every school at least once during the regular sea-

son and many schools went several years between play-ing some conference members. In addition, in 1920, the SIAA voted down proposed rules that an athlete must be in a college a year before playing on its teams and re-fused to abolish a rule permitting athletes to play summer baseball for money.

Play began in the fall of 1921 and a year later, six more schools joined the fledgling league including Tulane (which had attended the inaugural meeting but had elected not to join), Florida, Louisiana (LSU), Mississippi, South Carolina and Vanderbilt. VMI joined in 1925 and Duke was added in 1929.

By the 1930s, membership in the Southern Conference had reached 23 schools. C.P. “Sally” Miles of Virginia Tech, president of the Southern Conference, called the annual league meeting to order on Dec. 9, 1932 at the Farragut Hotel in Knoxville, Tenn. Georgia’s Dr. Sanford announced that 13 institutions west and south of the Ap-palachian Mountains were reorganizing as the Southeast-ern Conference. Members of the new league included including Alabama, Alabama Polytechnic Institute, Flor-ida, Georgia, Georgia School of Technology, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Mississippi A&M, University of the South, Tennessee, Tulane and Vanderbilt.

According to the minutes of the meeting, Dr. Sanford stated that the division was made along geographical lines. Florida’s Dr. J.J. Tigert, acting as spokesman for the withdrawing group, regretted the move but believed it was necessary as the Southern Conference had grown too large. The resignations were accepted and the with-drawing schools formed the new league which began play in 1932.

The Southern Conference continued with membership of 10 institutions including Clemson, Duke, Maryland, North Carolina, North Carolina State, South Carolina, Virginia, VMI, Virginia Tech and Washington & Lee.

The second major shift occurred some 20 years later. By 1952, the Southern Conference included 17 colleges and universities. Another split occurred when seven schools including Clemson, Duke, Maryland, North Carolina, North Carolina State, South Carolina and Wake Forest departed to form the Atlantic Coast Conference which be-gan play in 1953. The revamped Southern Conference in-cluded members The Citadel, Davidson, Furman, George Washington, Richmond, VMI, Virginia Tech, Washington & Lee, West Virginia and William & Mary.

Today, the league continues to thrive with a membership that includes 12 institutions and a footprint that spans five states: Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, Ala-bama and Georgia. Current league members are Appa-lachian State, College of Charleston, The Citadel, David-son, Elon, Furman, Georgia Southern, UNC Greensboro, Samford, Chattanooga, Western Carolina and Wofford.

2009 Southern conFerence tournAMent

After 19 successful seasons in Charleston, S.C., the Southern Conference Baseball Champion-ship moves to Greenville, S.C., in 2009. The tournament will be held at Fluor Field at the West End in downtown Greenville and will be hosted by the Greenville Drive, the Class A affiliate of the Boston Red Sox.

The top eight teams in the SoCon regular season standings will qualify for the event, which fea-tures a modified double-elimination bracket designed to produce a one-game, single-elimination championship final. The tournament championship game will be televised live throughout the Southeast on SportSouth at 2 p.m. on Sunday, May 24.

First opened in April 2006, the 5,700-seat stadium was named as the 2006 Ballpark of the Year by Ballparks.com, earning the nod over a group of stadiums that included St. Louis’s Busch Stadium and Medlar Field at Lubrano Park in State Col-lege, Pa.

Modeled after Fenway Park, home of the Boston Red Sox, Fluor Field at the West End boasts its own “Green Monster,” a 30-foot high wall in left field, equipped with a manual scoreboard. The dimensions all around the out-field wall are to the same specifications as Fenway Park, including “Pesky’s Pole” in right field.

The single-game tournament attendance record of 5,419 was set in 2003 for an opening round game between The Citadel and the College of Charleston. The all-tourna-ment attendance record was set in 2004 when more than 35,000 fans attended Riley Park, an average of 2,343 per game.

In 2008, Elon became the seventh different team in the past seven seasons to win the SoCon Tournament, de-feating College of Charleston in the championship game and earning its first title.

Following a one-year stop in Greenville, the tournament will return to Charleston’s Joe Riley Park for the 2010 event. The tournament’s winner secures the league’s automatic bid to the NCAA Division I Baseball Championship.

Career win as a head coach at any level Fred Jordan earned in The Citadel’s 9-6 win over Appalachian State on March 30, 2008.

Average RPI of The Citadel’s opponents over the last six weeks of the season, marking one of the toughest stretches of schedule for any team in the nation.

Consecutive innings pitched by Wes Wrenn in 2008 without allowing a single walk.

The number of pickoffs by The Citadel pitching staff in 2008, which led the nation.

Consecutive batters retired by Drew Mahaffey in his three-plus appearances in April and early May. That streak included six strikeouts.

4 Different pitchers who were named Southern Confer-ence Pitcher of the Week, a first for the program.

Chris swauger seleCted by the st. louis Cardinals in the 26th round of the Mlb draftChris Swauger was chosen in the 26th round of the Major League Baseball First-Year Player Draft on June 6 as the 2008 graduate of The Citadel was selected by the St. Louis Cardinals. Swauger became the fifth player in the past four years to be drafted from The Citadel.

Swauger was picked by the Cardinals with the 785th pick overall. Since 1979, Swauger becomes the sixth player in school history to be drafted by the Cardi-nals organization. St. Louis has drafted more players from The Citadel than any other MLB organization with Atlanta, Boston, Cleveland, Florida, Oakland and San Diego all tied for second with two Bulldog players drafted.

swauger reCords 300th Career hitChris Swauger became only the second player in school history and only the seventh in Southern Conference history to record 300 career hits when he laced a leadoff double in the first inning at No. 15 Coastal Carolina on Wednes-day, April 30, 2008 in Conway. Swauger finished his career second only to Philip Hartig’s 360 career hits at The Citadel, a mark that is also the conference record.

not so fast, My friend!Opponents beware on the base paths - The Citadel held the national and Southern Confernece lead in pickoffs with 28. Western Carolina was close be-hind with 24 pickoffs while Campbell was tied with the Catamounts. The top five schools in pickoffs nationally last season all reside in the Carolinas.

Joining “the long gray line”On May 3, 2008, four members of The Citadel Baseball team joined “The Long Gray Line” as they walked across the stage at McAlister Field House in order to receive their diplomas.

Matt Arnold, Conrad Kellahan, Timmy Martin and Chris Swauger were in their salt and pepper uniforms with full regalia as they became four of the chosen few to graduate from The Military College of South Carolina.

With the team playing a three-game Southern Conference series at Georgia Southern that weekend, the quartet traveled back to Charleston following the Friday, May 2 game at Georgia Southern in order to participate in commence-ment exerices. They then headed back to Stateboro, Ga. on Saturday, May 3 for the 6 p.m. game against the Eagles in which the Bulldogs won, 12-8.

Mahaffey retires 12 straightDrew Mahaffey made the most of his three-plus appearances in April and early May, retiring 12 consecutive batters he had faced. To go along with that streak, Mahaffey struck out six of those 12 batters he had retired, including all five bat-ters he faced in 1.2 innings pitched at No. 29 UNC Wilmington on April 15.

Chris swauger, Chris MCguiness earn ESPN ThE MagaziNE aC-adeMiC all-distriCt honors, swauger naMed aCadeMiC all-aMeriCaChris Swauger and Chris McGuiness were named to the ESPN The Magazine All-District III baseball team while Swauger was named to the Academic All-America team as voted on and announced by the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA). Swauger earned first team honors Academic All-District and Second Team All-America honors while McGuiness was named Second Team All-District.

Swauger graduated from The Citadel with a business administration degree after earning straight As throughout college with the exception of one B. The Tampa, Fla. native led the Bulldogs in many offensive categories last season and is second in the school’s all-time charts in hits, total bases and doubles and holds the school record in triples.

Meanwhile McGuiness posted an impressive 3.97 GPA during his sophomore season while starting at first base all but five games last year. In those five games, McGuiness was the starting pitcher.

Kevin Costner Joins the Citadel baseball for batting PraCtiCeThe Citadel Baseball team had a distinguished guest join the Bulldogs as ac-tor Kevin Costner hit batting practice on April 18 at College Park. Costner, a

big baseball fan, hit batting practice and then talked to the team for several minutes.

Costner hit both left and right handed off former assistant coach Stuart Lake, ripping two balls off the outfield wall at The Citadel’s practice park.

“I hate to tell you but all of your coaches are old men,” said Costner. “As old men, all they can do is give advice. They can’t play for you. The coaches are coaches but they can’t perform. Go out and seize the moment. Do what’s fun.”

Costner has starred in several baseball movies including Bull Durham, For Love of the Game and Field of Dreams. Costner was in Charleston filming a movie and was on nearby Moultrie Street, next to College Park.

wrenn’s non-walK streaK endsWes Wrenn’s had an impressive streak come to a close on Saturday, March 29, 2008 against Appalachian State when he walked David Rubinstein with two outs in the first inning. That brought to a close a streak of 29.2 consecutive innings pitched where the junior RHP had not walked a batter. The last time he walked a batter was the seventh inning of The Citadel’s Feb. 24 game against Delaware.

Wrenn’s efficiency was highlighted on March 22 against Furman where he gathered his second win of the season and became the first Southern Confer-ence pitcher to throw a nine-inning complete game in2008. Wrenn only thew 100 pitches in that game against the Paladins.

standard bearersOne of the pleasant aspects of the 2008 regular season was the effectiveness of The Citadel pitching staff. The Citadel fielded one of the top pitching staffs in the Southern Conference in 2008.

Si-monelli, who saw action in 38 games in 2007 and was the starting centerfielder early in 2008, suffered a broken hand and redshirted the season.

The CiTadel, ’73

The CiTadel PresidenT

The Citadel President Lt Gen John W. Rosa was born in Spring-field, Ill., Sept. 28, 1951. After graduating high school in Jackson-ville, Fla., in 1969, he was recruited to play football at The Citadel, the Military College of South Carolina. While at The Citadel, Rosa was the starting Bulldog quarterback in 1970 and went on to earn three varsity letters in football. He graduated from The Citadel in 1973 with a degree in business administration and was awarded a commission in the Air Force.

A command fighter pilot with more than 3,600 flying hours, Rosa enjoyed an illustrious 32-year career in the Air Force. Among his career highlights, he was stationed in Lossiemouth, Scotland, as an American exchange officer flying the Jaguar for the Royal Air Force. He has commanded at squadron, group and wing levels at air bases in South Korea, Idaho, South Carolina, New Mexico and Georgia. He served as inspector general for Pacific Air Forces at Hickam Air Force Base in Hawaii and commandant of The Air Com-mand and Staff College at Maxwell Air Force Base in Alabama. As deputy director for operations for the Joint Chiefs of Staff in Washington, D.C., he was in charge of the National Military Com-mand Center and served as the military spokesman for the Pen-tagon when U.S. troops were deployed to Afghanistan and Iraq in 2002. In July 2003, he was named superintendent of the U.S. Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, Colo., and in September of that year, he was promoted to lieutenant general.

Rosa holds a master’s degree in public administration from Golden Gate University. He is a graduate of the Air Force Command and Staff College, the U.S. Army Command and General Staff College, and the U.S. Army War College. He has also studied at the John F. Kennedy School of Government and the Harvard Graduate School of Education.

His awards include the Distinguished Service Medal, the Defense Superior Service Medal, the Legion of Merit with oak leaf cluster, the Meritorious Service Medal with four oak leaf clusters, the Air Force Commendation Medal and the Combat Readiness Medal

with two oak leaf clusters. He has flown the A-7, A-10, Hunter and Jaguar aircraft, F-16, F-117A, HH-60G and HC-130.

On Jan. 3, 2006, Rosa returned to The Citadel where he serves as 19th president. He is married to Donna Kangeter, a Charles-ton native. They have two sons, Jonathan and Brad (‘03), and a grandson, Michael Bradley, who is the son of Jonathan and his wife, Elisha.

The Citadel’s President Lt Gen John W. Rosa, Jr. named Larry Leckon-by as the 11th athletics director at the South Carolina Military College in a press conference held at the Altman Athletics Center on June 13, 2008. Leckonby officially joined the Bulldog Family in July.

Prior to The Citadel, Leckonby spent six years as a senior associate athletic director at the University of Maryland. Hired as the athletic de-partment’s Chief Financial Officer in September 2002, he managed the department’s annual $51.2 million operating budget, capital projects and long-range financial forecasting.

In addition, Leckonby was the sport supervisor for women’s basket-ball, assisted the Athletic Director with men’s basketball and football, and supervised the athletic business office, athletic ticket office and information technology. He was also responsible for coordinating de-partmental construction projects, which have included a $50.8 million expansion of the Football Stadium, as well as expansions to the Gos-sett Football Team House, new grass and field turf practice fields and the Field Hockey and Lacrosse Complex. He also served on several campus committees including the University Finance Committee and the University Facilities Advisory Committee.

Prior to accepting the position at Maryland, Leckonby served as the se-nior associate director of athletics at the University of Houston, appoint-ed in January 1998. He was responsible for the daily administration of the department and specific areas of duty involving finance, planning, fund-raising and marketing. He also served as interim athletics director for six months in 2001 and 2002.

Leckonby also worked as the associate AD for business affairs at Bos-ton College for four-and-a-half years (1993-98), and the assistant AD

Leckonby Family (L-R): Katie, Larry, Hunter, Cris and William

for finance and operations at Old Dominion University for five years (1988-93). He was the ticket manager and assistant business manager at Boston University from 1982 to 1988, after beginning his athletics business career at the University of Massachusetts (Amherst) where he was an administrative assistant to the business manager beginning in 1981.

A former lacrosse player at Duke University, he graduated with a bach-elor’s degree in management science in 1979. He earned a master’s degree in sport management from Massachusetts in 1983.
