Hoping to ride the momentum of theirsecond-best winning season in programhistory, the Utes are optimistic for greatthings in 2003. Last season, Utah posteda 33-26 overall record and was 16-14 inMountain West Conference play, goodfor second place. The team also led thenation in doubles (154) and ranked in thetop 25 nationally in batting average,scoring and slugging percentage.

“Last season was a fantastic run byour team, and winning 33 games is anincredible feat,” says Head Coach TimEsmay.

The Utes lost six starters and12 letterwinners from last year’ssquad, including pitchers MitchMaio, Cheyenne Rushton andJason Wylie, infielders NateWeese, Donald Hawes and AdamCastleton, and outfielder BritPannier. Maio compiled a 9-1record and was the Co-MWCPlayer of the Year. Rushton postedan 8-6 record with 63 strikeoutsand Wylie was 7-7 on the yearwith 76 strikeouts in 19 starts.

Weese had a team-high 17home runs, 60 RBI, 148 total basesand 19 stolen bases, while Pannierknocked a team-leading 26doubles, which ranked fifth in theNCAA. Hawes was third on theteam in stolen bases, whilecatching nine runners stealing,and Castleton led the team with a.369 batting average and ranked18th nationally in runs per game(1.24). Weese, Hawes andCastleton were all second-team all-MWC picks.

Utah will look to junior MikeWestfall and sophomore MattCiaramella as the offensive leadersthis year. Westfall, a two-time all-conference honoree, was secondon the team last season with a .356batting average and 80 hits. In his debutseason, Ciaramella excelled defensively incenterfield and notched the third-bestbatting average on the team of .345. Hewas the lone Ute named to the MWC all-tournament team.

Below is a position by positionbreakdown of the 2003 Utes.

P I T C H E R SP I T C H E R SP I T C H E R SP I T C H E R SP I T C H E R SOn the mound, Utah returns six

pitchers who saw time last year. Though ayoung staff built mostly of sophomoresand freshmen, Esmay believes this groupwill get the job done. “This is a talentedgroup,” Esmay claims. “They are short onexperience, but not on ability.”

Leading the way will be junior SeanOverholt, who made 20 appearances forthe Utes, including four starts. “I expectSean to have breakthrough year,” Esmaysays.

Also returning is a core of sopho-mores − Doug Mackay, Brady Martinezand Clay Westmoreland − all of whom sawaction last season. “All three of them gottheir feet wet last year,” Esmay notes.“That experience will prove invaluablethis season.”

Mackay made four starts, with 20appearances, while Westmoreland posted

a 1-0 record in 17 appearances. Martinezfinished the year with a 2-1 record in 15appearances and boasted the second bestERA of the returners.

Esmay also expects newcomers DerekLarsen, Ryan Florence, Jason Price andBen Buck to make an immediate impact.“Look for those guys to demand inningsright away,” he notes.

Larsen was a two-time Class 4A Utahall-state selection. He tallied a 9-1 recordas a senior while recording 96 strikeoutswith a 2.10 ERA.

Florence served as the teamcaptain at Utah Valley StateCollege during the 2002 season,when he had a 5-7 record with a4.01 ERA. In 2001, he went 6-2with a 3.75 ERA.Price threw three no hitters and

recorded six shutouts during hiscareer at Copper Hills HS in Utah.He compiled a 1.62 career ERAwith 208 strikeouts and only oneloss (16-1) during his three letteryears.Buck is the career (18) and single

season (9) saves leader at LamarCommunity College, where heplayed for the past two years. Healso holds the single season (1.06)and career (2.07) ERA records atLamar. While there, his team went106-17, with two region champion-ships and a third-place finish inthe Junior College World Series.In addition, sophomores Jared

Snyder and Brett Sundberg willsee time on the mound. Snyder,who had a 4.44 ERA in 18 appear-ances last year, will once againsplit time between the catcher andpitcher positions, while Sundbergwill also play third base. “Thosetwo guys will not only help us onthe position player side, but theywill also pitch,” Esmay claims.

In addition, Utah picked up transfersWick Udy and Nate Schlieman. Udytransferred from Oregon State, where hehit .327 for the Beavers last year. “Wickwill add much-needed experience as hesaw quality play last year in the Pac-10,”Esmay says.

Schlieman sat out last season atEckerd College due to injury, but posteda .368 batting average at HighlandCommunity College during the 2001season.

“We’ve had all-conference catchersfor the past three or four years,” Esmaynotes. “Look for these guys to continuethat tradition this year.”

solid this season. “We are very talentedand have a lot of depth in the infield thisseason,” Esmay claims.

Leading the way isWestfall, the two-time all-conference third baseman.Backing him up will beSundberg.

At shortstop, Esmaylooks to start CortlandWilson, a junior tranfer fromHawaii. Last year, Wilsonstarted 30 of the 31 gameshe played for the RainbowWahine.

Redshirt junior JaredPena will start at secondbase. Pena sat out lastseason after transferringfrom Salt Lake CommunityCollege, where he started 43of the 47 games he playedand finished with 42 hitsand 30 RBI.

Freshmen middleinfielders Tyler Kmetko andRyan Khoury will back upWilson and Pena. “Thosetwo can play short stop andsecond base and will be ourmiddle back-ups,” Esmayexplains.

Senior JakeJordison, who spent

last season as the designated hitter,will start at first base. Jordison hadseven home runs and 32 RBI lastseason and was a second-team jucoAll-American at Dixie State Collegein 2001.

Backing Jordison up at first willbe freshman Jake Waldram.

Rounding out the infield issenior utility player BrandonBiesinger. “Utility players are a hugenecessity in any program,” Esmaysays. “Look for Brandon to playfirst, second and third, and also toDH.”

Hill

Hackett

Dr. Chris Hill, Utah’s director ofathletics and special assistant to thepresident, has carried Utah athletics intonational prominence in the last 14 years.Hill was just 37 years old when he wasnamed director of athletics back inOctober of 1987.

His vision reaches beyond theathletics department. Since 1998, he hasbeen the special assistant to U. presidentDr. Bernie Machen and a member of theUniversity’s senior administrative cabinet.On a national level, Hill was the NCAAappointed chairman of the powerfulChampionships/Competition Cabinet from1997-98. He now serves as the MountainWest Conference representative on theNCAA Management Council and is on theManagement Council’s administrativecommittee. He was also chair of thetransition committee for the MountainWest Conference.

But his biggest strides have come oncampus, where his tenure has beencharged with capital improvements, anemphasis on student-athlete support,academics, and winning programs. In theMarch 18 issue of U.S. News and WorldReport, Utah was ranked among the top20 athletics programs in the nation, basedon winning percentage, graduation rate,number of sports and gender equity.

Hill is the driving force behind Utah’sathletics success and its numerousnational-caliber facilities.
