NSU PRESIDENT


SAMPLE TEXT NORFOLK STATE UNIVERSITY 2011BASEBALL MEDIA GUIDE

Marty Miller has been called many things during his tenure at Norfolk State University. Some have called him a rock. Others have referred to him as one of Nor-folk State’s greatest ambassadors. Regardless of the label, what’s clear is that Miller has served his alma mater in various capacities for nearly 40 years, providing NSU with stability in times of need.

His professional career at Norfolk State has included stints in the areas of fi nancial aid, career services, student aff airs and athletics. After winning more than 700 games as the school’s baseball coach, Miller was named NSU’s acting athletics director on December 16, 2004. He was appointed to the permanent athletics director post on March 18, 2005. Early in Miller’s tenure, he was confronted with many chal-lenges, the biggest one being the hiring of a football coach. Miller and his search committee worked during the Christmas and New Year’s holidays to fi nd a football coach. The hard work paid off when the decision was made to hire Pete Adrian from Bethune-Cookman. With approval of then-President Dr. Marie V. McDemmond, Adrian became the fi rst white head coach in any major sport at NSU and the second ever in MEAC football history. Shortly thereafter, with help from alumni, fans, friends and the Department of Facilities Management, the athletics depart-ment was able to raise funds to renovate and purchase new equipment for the weight room. In 2007, the school completed a major renovation of the NSU Softball Field, which included the installation of new team dugouts and a press box. Bleacher renovations to Joseph Echols Hall were completed for the 2008-09 basketball season. A new track surface is scheduled to be completed in the summer of 2010. Another highlight of his tenure as athletics director in-cludes NSU capturing the last six Talmadge Layman Hill awards, given annually to the top men’s sports program in the confer-ence. NSU has received a total of $145,000 for winning the awards. Miller was also presented in March 2006 with the Tom Fergusson Memorial Award, given annually to the area’s top sportsman by the Norfolk Sports Club. Miller is no stranger to winning. His career record as base-ball coach was 718-543-3. Miller fi rst started making a name for himself as a player at NSU from 1965-68. He hit .380 as a sophomore; .438 with eight doubles, two triples, three homers and 27 RBI as a junior; and .406 as a senior, when he became the fi rst Spartan player to be named an NCAA College Division All-American. Miller was an All-CIAA baseball selection in 1967 and 1968, and led the nation in doubles in 1968. Miller graduated with a bachelor’s degree in mathematics in 1969. An ROTC member in college, Miller was commissioned a second lieutenant in the U.S. Army after he graduated. While on active duty, Miller was signed by the Minnesota Twins. Miller returned to his alma mater in 1972 as an assistant to baseball

coach Bob Andrews. The next season, Miller inherited the head-coaching job, which he held until early in 2005. Miller is the winningest baseball coach in CIAA history, having led the Spartans to a 584-374-3 record in their years in the league. Miller’s ledger in the CIAA includes 17 conference championships, including seven in a row from 1987-93; 12 post-season appearances; 15 CIAA Coach of the Year awards; six All-Americans and 22 players signed to pro contracts. He also won the 1980 NAIA District 19 Coach of the Year award after his team won the District 19 title. Between 1993-97, Miller won fi ve consecutive Louisville Slugger Awards, given to championship coaches. He was one of a select few baseball coaches to receive the award for fi ve consecutive years. In 1997, NSU honored Miller by building the Marty L. Miller Baseball Field. One year later, Miller led NSU to the MEAC Tour-nament championship round in the Spartans’ fi rst year in the league. He was named the MEAC Coach of the Year in 2000, and NSU reached the championship round again in 2001. The year 2003 was also a special one for Miller. In Febru-ary, Miller was inducted into the CIAA’s John B. McLendon Hall of Fame. In May, Miller earned his 700th career win with the Spartans when sixth-seeded NSU upset No. 2 Delaware State in the MEAC tournament. In August, Miller the player was hon-ored as one of eight inductees into the Norfolk State University Athletics Foundation Sports Hall of Fame. He was inducted into the Hampton Roads African American Sports Hall of Fame in November 2010. Miller, a native of Danville, Va., serves on the Norfolk Sports Club Board of Directors and serves as its president for 2011. Miller was also elected to serve on the Virginia Sports Hall of Fame Honors Court beginning in 2009. He and his wife Liz have one son, Marty Eric, a former NSU outfi elder.

NSU ATHLETICS DIRECTOR NORFOLK STATE UNIVERSITY 2011BASEBALL MEDIA GUIDE



Norfolk State University was founded in 1935 as a beacon of hope to the region’s youth. Brought to life in the midst of the Great Depres-sion, Norfolk State was named the Norfolk Unit of Virginia Union University at its founding. By 1969, Norfolk State began its status as an independent college and was designated a university in 1979. Today, the University remains a source of inspiration for those who aspire to fulfi ll their dreams. A four-year public institution, Norfolk State is located in the dynamic Hampton Roads region and is close to the Virginia Beach oceanfront and downtown Norfolk. NSU has an enrollment of nearly 7,000 students.

In addition, the College of Science, Engineering and Technology also was awarded accreditation from the Engineering Accreditation Commission (EAC) of ABET. The School of Business received reaffi rmation of accreditation from the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business, International and the School of Education received continuing accreditation from the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education. Additionally, the National Collegiate Athletic Association recerti-fi ed Norfolk State’s intercollegiate athletics programs for NCAA ac-creditation, eff ective February 2009 for a 10-year period.

During the academic year, NSU recognized more than 60 young men and women who were inducted into the Athletics All-Academic Team for 2008-2009. To qualify, the scholar-athletes had to have a grade point average of at least 3.0 on a 4 point scale. This team includes fi rst-year and continuing students and represents all 15 of the department’s sports programs. From 2005-2010, NSU athletics has won the last six MEAC Men’s All-Sports Awards (Talmadge Layman Hill Award) and earned the department $125,000 during that period. Norfolk State University is also one of the top 50 producers of African-American Ph.D. recipients, according to Inside Higher Ed. The fi nding, based on a National Science Foundation report, says that Historically Black Colleges and Universities are graduating a growing share of African Americans who go onto earn Ph.D.s in science and engineering. Norfolk State’s Dozoretz National Institute for Mathemat-ics and Applied Sciences (DNIMAS) is specifi cally geared towards increasing the number of Ph.D.s in science, engineering, technology and mathematics. The program has been in place since 1986. More than 50 percent of DNIMAS scholars have earned advanced degrees.

Norfolk State University Timeline

NSU TIMELINE


NORFOLK STATE UNIVERSITY 2011BASEBALL MEDIA GUIDEATHLETICS HIGHLIGHTS

The Norfolk State University intercollegiate athletics program has experienced unprecedented success at the NCAA Division I level during the past fi ve years (2005-10). This period of progress has been highlighted by improvements in virtually every area critical to transforming the NSU athletics program into a highly competitive program that will consistently challenge for Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) and NCAA Division I championships. The catalyst for these advancements has been Marty Miller, who was appointed athletics director at NSU in December 2004. Miller believes that the mission of the athletics program is an extension of the mission of Norfolk State University. He places an emphasis on areas that impact the welfare of student-athletes. Improving graduation rates, gender equity, and the retention of student-athletes are equally, if not more important, than winning conference and national championships. However, the initiatives designed to enhance the student-athlete experience and improve the overall administrative process have been successful due to the achievements of the teams and individual athletes. Perhaps the biggest achievement came in early 2009, when the athletics department was recertifi ed to receive NCAA accreditation for the next 10 years. By achieving certifi cation status, NSU is considered to be operating its athletics program in substantial conformity with operating principles adopted by the NCAA’s Division I membership. Numerous staff and coaching hires have been made to enhance the department’s effi cacy. New personnel have been hired in the areas of aca-demic support, compliance, business operations and development to meet the growing demand in those departments. A host of new head coaches joined the staff signaling new beginnings in several sports. They included Pete Adrian (Football), Claudell Clark (Baseball), Anthony Evans (Men’s Basketball), Heidi Cavallo (Softball), and Wilhelmenia Harrison (Bowl-ing). Kenneth Giles (Men’s Track) and Ronda Berard (Women’s Track) were promoted from interim to full-time head coaches in their respective sports. Giles’ cross country and track teams have dominated the MEAC. Adrian has orchestrated the steady progress of the football team, which came

within a game of capturing its fi rst MEAC title in 2007. Evans led the Spartans

to the MEAC Tournament cham-pionship game in his second

year. Clark and Cavallo helped guide their teams to

runner-up fi nishes at the MEAC championships in their respective sports in 2008. Harrison guided the

bowling team to its fi rst MEAC Southern Division

regular-season champion-ship in 2008-09 and the No.

19 national ranking in 2009-10. The accomplishments

of NSU student-athletes in the classroom since 2005 have been equally

impressive. The number of athletes annually named to the MEAC Commis-sioner’s All-Academic Team has steadily increased, and now numbers 40 or more each year.

Academics

ATHLETICS FOUNDATION



The NSU Strength and Conditioning Program is administered by Reese Bridgman, NSU’s strength and conditioning coach. Bridgman has 26 years of coaching experience in athletics at the high school, college and professional levels. His resume includes a seven-year stint as head strength and conditioning coach at Central Flor-ida, where he worked with future professionals such as Daunte Culpepper, Asante Samuel and Brandon Marshall of the NFL and Mike Maroth of Major League Baseball. The NSU Strength and Conditioning Program exists to provide all 280+ NSU student-athletes with scientifi cally-sound performance-enhancement programs in the areas of strength, speed, explosive power and sports nutrition. Programs are conducted in the NSU athletics weight room, a 2,000-square foot facility in Gill Gymnasium that houses the equipment and accessories needed to devel-op championship-level NCAA Division I athletes. The strength and conditioning program also uses the NSU athletics department’s game and practice fi elds.The program develops athletes by means of functional strength training for strength and power utilizing Olym-pic lifts, power lifts, plyometric drills and additional supplementary lifts, particularly dumbbell exercises. The program trains speed in both linear and change-of-direc-tion movement. Athletes are taught recovery by develop-ing good eating habits that are appropriate for athletes training at the Division I level and by emphasizing the correct amount of rest. Athletes are trained in a team setting as a part of a year-round program. Athletes train two times per week in season and three to four times per week during the remainder of the year with a break between semesters and at the end of their sport’s season. Their annual plan consists of in-season, off season, preseason and holiday programs. All training schedules are administered within NCAA guidelines for contact time with athletes in both

required programs and voluntary programs. Part of the emphasis within the NSU Strength and Con-ditioning Program is on the athlete developing lifetime character qualities of teamwork, discipline, dedication, determination, respect for others and respect for hard work. Athletes are also expected to develop an interest in lifetime fi tness. “The Strength and Conditioning Program at NSU tries to remember that our athletes came to us to participate in and excel in their given sport, not to become weight lifters or body builders,” Bridgman says. “For this reason, we ap-proach strength and conditioning as a means to an end, and we encourage our athletes to learn from and enjoy the journey.”

ATHLETICS DIRECTORY



Claudell Clark is in his seventh season as head coach of the Norfolk State Uni-versity baseball program. After serving as interim head coach for two seasons, Clark was named to the permanent post in the summer of 2006.

Clark has led NSU to two MEAC Tour-nament championship appearances in his tenure. The Spartans have recorded 116 wins over his last fi ve seasons as head coach, posting fi ve straight 20+ win seasons for the fi rst time since the program moved to the Division I level in 1998.

Last season, the Spartans fi nished 21-29-1 and fi nished one victory shy of the MEAC Tournament champion-ship round.

In 2009, NSU fi nished 22-23 and won a pair of games in the MEAC Tournament. Along the way, Clark picked up his 100th career coaching win in April against Delaware State. NSU fi nished the season second in the MEAC with a .312 batting average, the highest mark in Clark’s fi rst fi ve seasons.

In 2008, NSU notched the school’s fi rst winning season since 2000, fi nishing 25-24. The 25 wins matched the program’s most since joining Division I, tying the 2007 team that went 25-25. The Spartans ad-vanced all the way to the MEAC Tournament championship round last year before falling to Bethune-Cookman.

They did it thanks largely to a dependable pitching staff . NSU ranked fi rst in the MEAC and 22nd in the nation in earned run average (4.07). Former Spartan pitcher Joey Seal, who broke Clark’s school record for career strikeouts last year, gained the program national distinction by being selected for the initial Roger Clemens Award watch list for the national pitcher of the year award. Seal also became the fi rst Spartan in the school’s Division I history to be selected as national pitcher of the week.

The Spartans have fared well outside of the conference in recent seasons. Last year, the Spartans picked up wins over Georgetown of the Big East, cross-town foe Old Dominion of the CAA and Mount St. Mary’s of the Northeast Conference. In 2009, NSU’s notable regular-season wins included a series victory (two out of three) over Hofstra of the CAA. In 2007 and 2008, the Spartans split four games with ODU.

Also in 2007, NSU earned its fi rst-ever series win over a Big East team, taking two of three from Seton Hall, and its fi rst-ever sweep of an Atlantic 10 team when it took three straight games from St. Joseph’s. That Spartans’ team featured fi rst baseman Ernie Banks, who was drafted by the Florida Marlins in the 2007 Major League Baseball draft.

In 2006, Clark guided the program to a 23-28 record. The Spartans tallied the most wins in their nine-year MEAC history, fi nishing 11-7 and placing second in the conference regular-season standings. The Spartans showed continued improvement under Clark, ranking fi rst in the MEAC in batting (.302), second in earned run average (4.60), and third in fi elding percentage (.944).

After taking over four games into the 2005 season from long-time

coach and current athletics director Marty Miller, Clark and the Spartans overcame a slow start to advance to the MEAC Tournament championship round. The Spartans defeated six-time defending MEAC champion Bethune-Cookman twice en route to the championship round, where the Spartans fell to top seed North Carolina A&T 10-9.

Clark helped a Spartans’ pitching staff comprised mostly of freshmen and sophomores to the second-best earned-run average in the MEAC in 2005. Clark was an assistant coach under Miller for two seasons prior taking over as head coach.

Clark had a distinguished career as a pitcher and outfi elder at NSU from 1998-2001. He was the MEAC Pitcher of the Year in 2000, when he went 7-3 with a 3.05 ERA and 92 strikeouts in 76.2 innings pitched.

Clark was also the MEAC Tournament MVP in 2001, when he led the Spartans to the championship round. He was NSU’s Most Improved Player in 2000, and was the team MVP in 2000 and 2001.

Clark earned his bachelor’s degree in physical education from NSU in 2001. He ranks in the top 10 all-time at NSU in strikeouts, innings pitched, wins, decisions and appearances. He is the school record-holder in strikeouts per nine innings (9.9) and strikeouts in a single season (92 in 2000) and ranks second in career strikeouts (249).

He was drafted by the Pittsburgh Pirates in the 28th round of the 2001 draft. He spent time with the Bradenton (Fla.) Pirates in rookie ball and the Class-A Williamsport (Pa.) Crosscutters. In 2001, Clark led all Wil-liamsport pitchers in lowest opponents’ batting average (.176) as the Crosscutters won the New York-Penn League championship.

After an injury cut short his baseball career, Clark returned to his native Chesapeake, where he still resides today.

Joey Seal is in his second season as a student assistant this season. He pri-marily works with the pitching staff .

As a four-year standout pitcher for the Spartans from 2005-08, Seal’s fi n-gerprints are all over the NSU record book. Seal completed his career as the school’s all-time leader in innings pitched (334), strikeouts (269) and appearances (78). Seal was a second-team All-MEAC selection as a relief pitcher as a junior in 2007, when he recorded four saves and fanned 75 hitters in 84 innings.

Seal enjoyed his best season as a se-nior in 2008, when he went 7-4 with a 3.69 ERA in 97.2 innings pitched as the Spartans’ No. 1 starting pitcher. He helped pitch the Spartans to the MEAC Tournament championship round that season for the second time in his four-year career. Also in 2008, Seal was named to the watch list for the Roger Clemens Award, given annually to the top pitcher in the nation. Seal was also selected the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Associa-tion (NCBWA) Pitcher of the Week after pitching a school-re-cord 11 scoreless innings in a no-decision against Lafayette.

Seal, a Newport News, Va. native, is completing his bachelor’s degree in interdisciplinary studies this year.

Drew Suttmiller is in his fi rst season as a student assistant this season with NSU. He helps work with the infi elders and with hitting instruction.

Suttmiller played two years at shortstop for the Spartans (2009-10) after transferring from Allegany College in Maryland. Suttmiller played in 71 games in his NSU career, starting 68. He batted .301 over his time as a Spartan with 11 doubles, four triples and 37 RBI.

Suttmiller batted .314 as a junior in 2009, and .277 in an injury-short-ened senior campaign in 2010.

Suttmiller, a Chesapeake native, is completing requirements toward his bachelor’s degree in business this year.

ASSISTANT COACHES

A.J. Corbin is in his seventh year on the Norfolk State University base-ball coaching staff . He coaches the infi elders and helps with hitting instruction, recruiting, game and fi eld preparation, and administrative tasks.

Spartan hitters have earned 18 All-MEAC selections since Corbin took over as an assistant coach. Two of those players, Ernie Banks (Florida Marlins draftee) and Juan Serrano (independent), have reached the professional ranks.

Last season, the NSU hitters posted a .308 team batting average, third-best in the MEAC. Eight Spartans batted over .300 and three ranked in the conference’s top 20 in hitting.

The 2009 Spartans hit .312 as a team, which ranked second in the MEAC and is the best team average NSU has posted under Corbin’s guidance. NSU ranked third in the MEAC in batting in 2007 (.289). In 2006, the Spartan hitters led the MEAC in hitting at a .302 clip. That marked an improvement of 65 percentage points over the previous year.

Corbin made a name for himself as a versatile player at NSU under former coach Marty Miller from 2001-04. Corbin played every position but center fi eld during his Spartan career, but saw most of his time on the mound and at fi rst base. He ranks in the top 10 in school history in games played (185, second), at-bats (614, third), doubles (38, seventh), runs batted in (121, tied for seventh) and home runs (17, tied for eighth).

Corbin batted .279 for his career and had a 4.12 ERA in 32 pitching appearances. He was named to the MEAC All-Tour-nament Team as a junior and senior, leading the Spartans in home runs in both seasons. He was also named to the fi rst team Black College Baseball Elite squad as a relief pitcher his senior year.

A native of Gloucester, Va., Corbin earned his bachelor’s degree in interdisciplinary studies from NSU in 2004. He is currently pursuing his master’s degree in business administration from the University of Phoenix. Corbin and his wife, Tilya, reside in Norfolk.

2011 ROSTER



Deep Lineup Carries Spartans into 2011Deep Lineup Carries Spartans into 2011It’s not often that a baseball coach at any level can boast eight starting position players who hit better than .300. But that’s exactly the luxury that Norfolk State baseball coach Claudell

Clark has heading into the 2011 season.

Last year, the Spartans batted .308 as a team, the third-best mark in the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference. Eight of NSU’s nine primary position players topped the .300 plateau, and all eight return to the Spartans this season. Clark is hoping that that fi repower, which includes many of the team’s 10 seniors, will carry the Spartans while a young, but talented pitching staff fi nds its groove.

Leading the way is a trio of seniors who will be entering their fourth seasons as starters: third baseman Chris Joyce, right fi elder John Lynch and fi rst baseman Brandon Hairston. Joyce and Lynch enter the season within striking distance of a number of school records. Hairston, meanwhile, was the team’s leading home run hitter last year with eight.

They are three of 20 returning letterwinners for the Spartans this year. Following is a position-by-position breakdown of the team heading into the 2011 season:

INFIELD

Joyce, a fi rst-team All-MEAC performer, paced the Spartans and ranked fi fth in the MEAC with a .380 batting average in 2010. His 23 doubles led the MEAC and established a school record, and he also led NSU with 42 RBI. Assuming he stays healthy, Joyce is a good bet to surpass the school’s career hits mark of 226, owned by Andrew Dixon (1983-86).

Hairston was another key cog in NSU’s lineup. He batted .326 with 15 doubles, eight homers and 36 RBI last year from the left side of the plate. He had a pair of two-homer games as a junior.

Sophomore Sammy Serafi ne returns to man second base for NSU. Serafi ne batted .339 as a freshman in 2010. He was espe-cially productive over the fi nal month of the season, culminat-ing in his MEAC All-Tournament Team selection.

NSU’s lone hole to fi ll from last year’s batting and defensive lineup is at shortstop, where both Ryan Wiggins (.274 aver-age) and Drew Suttmiller (.277) completed their eligibility. The likely candidate to replace them is junior college transfer Rafael

Colon (Bridgeport, Conn.), who played two years at Patrick Henry Community College in Martinsville. Colon hit .333 as a sophomore.

The Spartans have a number of key returning reserves in the infi eld who should push for playing time. At fi rst base, senior Blaze Zeilman (.163 in 2010) and sophomore Shane Hoggard (.204) return. Either could spell Hairston at fi rst base or serve as designated hitter. Clark is also high on the abilities of another Patrick Henry Community College transfer, junior fi rst base-

man/DH Hunter Kenney (Culpeper, Va.). Kenney adds another powerful left-handed bat to the lineup.

Senior Juan Herrera (.233, 1 HR) has experience playing second, shortstop and DH in his career. First-year sophomore shortstop Kevin Curd also has the reputation of being a dan-gerous hitter and could factor into the mix on the left side of the infi eld.

OUTFIELD

While Joyce is likely to surpass the school record for hits in a ca-reer, it is very possible that Lynch will get there fi rst. Lynch, who has hit anywhere from lead-off to the sixth spot in NSU’s order over his career, has 189 career hits, six ahead of Joyce. Lynch was also a fi rst-team All-MEAC performer last year, when he batted .364 with fi ve homers, 34 RBI and 27 stolen bases. Lynch also turned heads with his nine outfi eld assists, one of the top marks in the nation.

Lynch is one-third of an all-senior outfi eld which features a trio of returning starters. TiQuan Griffi n started 31 games last year, 28 in center fi eld. He rebounded from a slow start to bat .302 on the season with six doubles, two triples and six stolen bases. He is one of NSU’s faster players.

Senior left fi elder John Rasberry is also back in the fold. The former junior college transfer made a splash in his fi rst year at NSU in 2010. Rasberry batted lead-off much of the year and didn’t disappoint. He batted .307 with 11 doubles, three hom-ers and 31 RBI. Rasberry stole 17 bases in 20 attempts, second-best on the squad behind Lynch.

Sophomore James Taylor also has starting experience. He started 23 games in center fi eld last year and four at DH during his rookie season. Taylor stole 10 bases, scored 17 runs and bat-ted .247. He was also one of the more patient Spartans, walking 18 times and compiling a .407 on-base percentage.

The Spartans also stockpiled plenty of young talent in the off season with the addition of three freshman outfi elders. Cameron Day (Virginia Beach, Va.), Tyon Ore (Norfolk, Va.) and Chase Kyriacou (Virginia Beach, Va) have the physical tools to help right away or serve as capable backups behind the Spar-tans’ more experience outfi elders. Walk-on M.J. Wells (Nelson County, Va.) adds depth.

PITCHERS

The 2011 Spartan pitching staff fi gures to be a young, but tal-ented bunch. NSU did lose the services of 2010 seniors Jason

Barker and Chase Davenport. They tied for the team-lead with four pitching wins, and both pitched more than 79 innings last season. The Spartans’ most experienced returner is junior right hander Ryan Shook, who was named to the All-MEAC second team as a reliever in 2010. Shook tied Barker and Davenport for team-high honors with four wins. Shook also saved six games,

2011 OUTLOOK



one shy of the single-season school record. He even proved capable of serving as a starter late in the season, and could be used in either role.

Sophomore Richie Salter should serve as one of the Spartans’ top weekend starting pitchers this season. Limited for much of the year due to an injury sustained in the preseason, Salter made just three appearances in 2010. He won both games he started and registered a 1.20 ERA in 15 innings pitched. Includ-ed among his two victories was a complete-game win against Delaware State in a MEAC Tournament elimination game.

Senior Ryan Davis, junior Kyle Davis, and sophomores Ray-

mond Morton and Jordan Egan also return to the squad this season. The Davis brothers and Morton all served as key reliev-ers out of the NSU bullpen in 2010, while Egan made eight starts and nine appearances in relief. Egan and Morton will be considered for starting roles this season.

Five NSU freshmen are also expected to see time on the mound: left hander Ryan VanAssche and right handers Kyria-cou, Jeff Di Fulgo, Justin Bhatti and Jason Ellington. VanA-ssche and Bhatti are candidates to start, but can also throw extended innings out of the bullpen. Kyriacou, Di Fulgo and Ellington are likely to see most of their work in relief.

CATCHER

NSU welcomes back all three players who caught every inning for the team last season in senior Cameron Parsons, junior Chris Warren and sophomore Ryan Montgomery. Parsons led those three with a .333 batting average, a jump of nearly 100 points over his sophomore year at NSU.

Warren was the primary backup last season and also got the majority of the designated hitter starts down the stretch. He fi nished the season with a .309 average and drove in 21 runs.

Montgomery played in 19 games, starting eight. He homered once and had two doubles in his limited at-bats. Montgomery can also fi ll in at third base in a pinch, as well.

SCHEDULE

The 2011 baseball schedule is a challenging one. The Spartans play 34 home games at Marty L. Miller Field, including contests with teams from the Big East, Big Ten, Ivy League and Colonial Athletic Association and MEAC series with defending champion Bethune-Cookman and rival North Carolina A&T. The schedule also features a second annual exhibition matchup against the Norfolk Tides, the Triple-A affi liate of the Baltimore Orioles, at Harbor Park in early April.

“We are fortunate to have so many home games against quality opponents early in the season to prepare our ball club for a tough conference stretch,” Clark said. “Having 34 home games also gives our team great exposure to our local fan base and will be key to attracting local talent to the program.”

The season starts with four straight home games against Big East teams. NSU hosts Villanova for a three-game series Feb. 18-20, then Georgetown visits for a mid-week game on Feb. 23.

The Spartans have a three-game series at future MEAC op-ponent Savannah State on Feb. 26-27 before returning home to begin the March slate against two teams from the Colonial Athletic Association. Defending CAA champion Virginia Com-monwealth visits Marty L. Miller Field for a mid-week game on March 1, then Hofstra visits for a pair of doubleheaders on March 5-6. After a mid-week road trip to face Longwood (March 8), the Spartans host Penn State of the Big Ten in a four-game set from March 11-13.

Penn of the Ivy League comes to Norfolk for a pair of double-headers on the weekend of March 19-20. Next, NSU will host William & Mary in a mid-week game on March 23.

The Spartans’ last March weekend series represents the start of MEAC play. Long-time nemesis North Carolina A&T comes to Marty L. Miller Field for a three-game set March 26-27.

NSU concludes its March schedule in a return game at William & Mary on March 30. That begins a nine-game road swing for the Spartans, their longest stretch away from home during the season. NSU hits the road for a three-game MEAC series at Coppin State on April 2-3. Next, NSU faces the Norfolk Tides in an exhibition game at Harbor Park on April 5. The teams met for the fi rst time last year, with more than 8,500 fans attending.

The very next night, NSU meets cross-town foe Old Dominion at ODU. The same weekend, the Spartans conclude their road swing with a three-game MEAC series at Maryland Eastern Shore (April 9-10).

The Spartans then return home for their next four games, start-ing on April 12 against Virginia State and continuing April 16-17 against Bethune-Cookman.

After a road game at Georgetown on April 19, NSU is home for two straight weekends, facing Delaware State (April 22-23) and Savannah State (April 29-30).

NSU has seven games in May before postseason play begins. The Spartans wrap up their home-and-home series with VCU on May 4 in Richmond, then conclude MEAC play at Florida A&M on May 7-8. The regular season wraps up with a three-game home series against Longwood, May 14-15.

The 2011 MEAC Tournament will be held at Jackie Robinson Ballpark in Daytona Beach, Fla., for the third straight year. The tournament runs May 19-22.

“This will be one of the toughest Division I schedules that we have faced,” Clark said. “But I feel confi dent that with 10 seniors and a number of other talented returners, we will be up to the challenge.”

2010 DEFENSIVE STATS



In 1997, Marty L. Miller Baseball Field debuted as the home for Spartan baseball. It is named after former coach and current athlet-ics director Marty Miller, who has spent more than 40 years as a player, coach and administrator at NSU.

The fi eld itself is located off Presidential Parkway on the NSU campus. It has metal bleacher seating for 1,500, as well as a spacious press box for game staff and working media. It also has full stadium lighting for night games, one of the few colleges with that distinction in Virginia.

The playing surface is enclosed by cyclone fencing, has an underground drainage system, a gravel warning track, and enclosed bullpens for both teams. The dimensions are 330 feet to left fi eld, 318 to right, 395 to the gaps, and 402 to center fi eld. A giant scoreboard sits behind the center-fi eld wall.

In addition to numerous youth clinics and youth baseball games, Miller Field also hosted three consecutive MEAC Baseball Tourna-ments from 2006-08.

NSU VS. THE NORFOLK TIDES



The Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) is in its 41st year of operation in the 2010-11 academic school year. The MEAC is made up of 13 outstanding historical-ly black institutions across the Atlantic coastline: Bethune-Cookman University, Coppin State University, Delaware State University, Florida A&M University, Hampton University, Howard University, University of Maryland Eastern Shore, Morgan State University, Nor-folk State University, North Carolina A&T State University, North Carolina Central Univer-sity, Savannah State University and South Carolina State University.

HISTORY In 1969, a bold ad hoc group of innovators long associated with intercollegiate ath-letics met in Durham, N.C., to discuss the feasibility of organizing a new conference. Dis-sected from these discussions, a steering and planning committee was formed to fully investigate the idea, present a detailed report with recommendations to interested col-legiate institutions, and then construct a workshop to outline proposals. After adopting a program, seven institutions (Delaware State College, Howard Uni-versity, University of Maryland Eastern Shore, Morgan State University, North Carolina A&T State University, North Carolina Central University and South Carolina State College) agreed to become the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference. Its major objective was to estab-lish, organize and supervise an intercollegiate athletic program among a compact group of educational institutions of high academic standards and with a sound philosophy of co-curricular activities. The conference agreed to seek Division I status for its sports. The conference was confi rmed in 1970, kicking off its fi rst season of competition in football in 1971. In 1978, a milestone was reached when the MEAC selected Kenneth A. Free to be its fi rst full-time commissioner. Free served the conference for 18 years before stepping down in May of 1996. In July of 1996, Charles S. Harris was named commissioner and served in the capacity until April 2002. On September 1, 2002, Dr. Dennis E. Thomas was named the commissioner and has served in the position for nine years. The conference’s fi rst expansion occurred in October 1979 when Bethune-Cookman College and Florida A&M University were voted into the MEAC as new members. Original members Morgan State, North Carolina Central and Maryland Eastern Shore withdrew from the conference at the end of the 1979-80 fi scal year. Maryland Eastern Shore was readmitted in 1981 and Morgan State returned in 1984. Florida A&M opted to resign in 1984 but rejoined the conference in 1986. Coppin State College was granted admittance in 1985, becoming the ninth member institution. The MEAC expanded again in the 1990’s with the inclusion of Hampton University (1995) and Norfolk State University (1997). The conference expanded in 2007 adding Winston-Salem State University. Following the 2009-10 academic/athletic season Win-ston-Salem State withdrew from the conference and returned to Division II. On July 1, 2010 the MEAC made its fi nal expansion with the admittance of North Carolina Central and Savannah State University. On June 8, 1980, the MEAC was classifi ed as a Division I conference by the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA). Prior to that year the conference operated as a Division II conference. The following month the MEAC received an automatic qualifi ca-tion to the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Championship. Currently, the conference has automatic qualifying bids for NCAA postseason play in baseball (since 1994), men’s basketball (since 1981), women’s basketball (since 1982), football (since 1996), softball (since 1995), men and women’s tennis (since 1998), and volleyball (since 1994). The MEAC initiated cross country in 1980 and North Carolina A&T earned the inaugu-ral men’s crown. The fi rst women’s cross country championship took place a year later with Howard winning the fi rst of its seven titles. Indoor Track and Field was also added in 1981 with South Carolina State capturing the men’s title and Howard winning the women’s crown. Tennis and golf returned as MEAC governed sports in 1981, after a fi ve-year hiatus. South Carolina State won all seven of the conference’s golf championships from 1972-1983 before the sport was discontinued after the 1983 championship. Morgan State dominated the conference in wrestling winning 13 of 24 conference championships during the sports tenure (1972-1995). Baseball, which began in 1972, was discontinued following the 1977 season. It was brought back as a MEAC governed sport along with women’s volleyball in 1983. Wom-en’s softball became a MEAC sanctioned sport in 1992. Bowling was offi cially sanctioned as a MEAC sport in 1999. Before that season, the MEAC was the fi rst conference to secure NCAA sanctioning for women’s bowling by adopting the club sport prior to the 1996-97 school year.

SPORTS HIGHLIGHTS The MEAC has enjoyed tremendous athletic success over the years. In 2008, Maryland Eastern Shore (UMES) defeated Arkansas State 4-2 to win the NCAA Women’s Bowling National Championship, a fi rst for the conference and institution. With the victory, Lady Hawks’ head coach Sharon Brummell became the fi rst female head coach to win a NCAA bowling title. In men’s basketball, UMES became the fi rst historical black college/university to par-ticipate in the 1974 National Invitational Tournament (NIT). The Hawks defeated Man-hattan, 84-81, in the fi rst round before falling to Jacksonville by two points in the second round. Before the Jacksonville loss UMES had the best record in the nation at 27-1. That same year, Morgan State won the NCAA College Division II National Champion-

ship and junior Marvin “The Human Eraser” Webster was named the Division II Player of the Year. The 1981 tournament champion Howard Bison became the fi rst MEAC team to play in the NCAA Division I Basketball Championship. Coppin State and Hampton made history in the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Tournament with fi rst-round victories. The No. 15 seeded Coppin State defeated No. 2 South Carolina in 1997 and No. 15 seeded Hampton defeated No. 2 Iowa State in 2001. Both victories ranked among the Top 10 greatest tournament upsets of all-time by ES-PN’s SportsCenter. In women’s basketball, South Carolina State won the Association for Intercollegiate Athletics for Women (AIAW) Division II National Championship in 1979. In 1982, Howard became the fi rst MEAC women’s team to participate in the NCAA Di-vision I Women’s Basketball Championship. South Carolina State earned the conference’s bid in 1983 and became the fi rst MEAC team, men or women, to win an opening-round game in the NCAA Division I Basketball Tournament. The No. 14 North Carolina A&T Lady Aggies faced No.3 Florida State in the 2009 NCAA Division I Women’s Basketball Tournament. The 14th seed was the highest seed earned by a MEAC women’s basketball program since the inception of the 64-team bracket in 1994. The Lady Aggies defeated Wake Forest and Charlotte before falling to Miami in the third round of the 2010 Women’s National Invitation Tournament (WNIT). North Carolina A&T became the fi rst MEAC team and historical black college/university to win two con-secutive basketball games in a national postseason tournament. In football, the MEAC was instrumental in constructing the Freedom Bowl All-Star Classic, the Heritage Bowl, and the Gold Bowl. Prior to Division I competition, the MEAC competed in the Gold Bowl held in Rich-mond, Va., which matched the MEAC champion against the champion of the Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association (CIAA). South Carolina State represented the MEAC in 1976 and 1979, winning both outings over Winston-Salem State and Norfolk State respectively. In addition to the 1976 and 1979 crowns, South Carolina State won MEAC football titles in 1974-78, 1980-83, 1994, 2004, 2008 and 2009.
