EARLY THURSDAY FAVORITE Since joining Conference USA in 2013, Louisiana Tech has been a favorite for conference openers on Thursday nights. LA Tech’s first C-USA game in 2013 was on a Thursday night against Tulane (broadcast on FS1) while the team’s 2014 league opener was on a Thursday night at North Texas (broadcast on CBS Sports Network). The tradition continues this week when Louisiana Tech opens C-USA play at WKU on a Thursday night in a game televised nationally on FS1.

PRESEASON FAVORITES SQUARE OFF EARLY High expectations abound entering Thursday’s game at Western Kentucky as both teams were projected to win their respec-tive divisions within Conference USA this season. The Bulldogs hope to retain the title of West Division champions after advancing to the C-USA Championship Game last season while the Hilltoppers, in their second year in the league, are looking to reach the league’s title game for the first time.

NOT THE FIRST TIME POSTSEASON GLORY DEPENDENT UPON TECH-WKU GAME With a showdown of the two divisional favorites set to kickoff Thursday, it is not the first time plenty has been at stake for the Louisiana Tech-WKU game. Back in 1973, the two programs played in the National Championship game in Sacramento, California with the Bulldogs winning, 34-0.

#TBT (THROWBACK TO THURSDAY) Every trend comes to an end. That was especially true for Louisiana Tech when the Bulldogs won decisively at North Texas last season, 42-21, in what was only the program’s second win on a Thursday since making the move to Division I-A in 1989. LA Tech has a chance to add another win on a Thursday when the Bulldogs play at WKU in Week Two. Prior to Sept. 11, 2014, the last time LA Tech had recorded a win on Thursday was in 1995 with a 28-21 win over Bowling Green on the road. Since then, up until Sept. 11, Tech had lost four straight in games played on Thursday. The win also moved LA Tech’s record to 6-10 in non-traditional game dates since 1989.

NOTING THIS WEEK’S GAME Next up for Louisiana Tech is a quick turnaround with a Thursday, Sept. 10 game at Conference USA foe WKU. The Bulldogs defeated the Hilltoppers, 59-10, last season on Nov. 1, 2014 in front of 20,011 at Joe Aillet Stadium in Ruston. Of note for this year’s match-up: ► That 59-10 win last season marked the second biggest conference win for the Bulldogs since 1953 behind only the Bulldogs’ 55-3 win over UTEP in 2014. ► LA Tech leads the series, 3-1, outscoring the Hilltoppers 107-36 in those four meetings ► The week two, Sept. 10 date marks the earliest conference game for Louisiana Tech since hosting No. 20 Hawai’i in Week Two on Sept. 8, 2007. LA Tech fell in that game in double overtime, 45-44. ► Since 2000, LA Tech is 5-3 in league games played before Week Three. ► Since moving up to the Division I-A/FBS level in 1989, Louisiana Tech is 9-8 in conference openers. Last year in its league opener, the Bulldogs won at North Texas, 42-21, forcing the Mean Green to punt on its first eight possessions. Louisiana Tech in Conference Openers Big West Conference (1993-95): 2-1 Western Athletic Conference (2001-12): 6-6 Conference USA (2013-Present): 1-1 ► The last time Louisiana Tech’s first road trip of the season was to a conference opponent came back in 1975 when LA Tech played at McNeese State and defeated the Cowboys, 21-14, in the Southland Conference opener. ► Since moving up to the I-A/FBS level in 1989, LA Tech is 6-10 in non-traditional (non-Saturday) game dates. Prior to last year’s win over North Texas, the Bulldogs had not won on a Thursday since 1995. ► Louisiana Tech all-time has a 4-1 record against teams from the Commonwealth of Kentucky. That includes a 3-1 record against Western Kentucky including a 34-0 win in the 1973 National Championship game. ► While Louisiana Tech does not have any players from the Commonwealth of Kentucky, defensive line coach Rick Petri coached at the University of Kentucky (2005-09) as he helped the Wildcats to four consecutive bowl appearances. Additionally, Louisiana Tech Football SID Patrick Walsh was raised in Louisville (Ballard High School) while LA Tech marketing assistant Rachel McDivitt is a WKU graduate and native of Owensboro (Apoloo High School). ► WKU has one student-athlete from the Pelican State as redshirt sophomore Jimmie Simms offensive lineman Jimmie Simms graduated from McDonogh 35 High School along with Tech’s Carlos Henderson in 2013.

KENNETH DIXON IS NATION’S ACTIVE CAREER RUSHING LEADER Louisiana Tech running back Kenneth Dixon is far from anonymous as the senior tailback was honored on both the Doak Walker Award and Maxwell Award Watch Lists this season and for good measure. Dixon entered the 2015 season as the nation’s active career rushing leader.

DIXON WITH A CHANCE TO BECOME 18TH PLAYER WITH 5,000 YARDS Kenneth Dixon already owns the school record for career rushing yards and will vie for the national scoring record (see below) with Navy’s Keenan Reynolds this fall. But a strong rushing year by Dixon could push him over the 5,000 career rushing yard mark, something only 17 other players in NCAA history have achieved. A full list of players that have eclipsed the 5,000 rushing tally is listed to the right.

DIXON SECOND AMONG ACTIVE CAREER LEADERS IN TOUCHDOWNS SCORED Montee Ball, beware. Entering the season with 61 total career touchdowns to his credit, Kenneth Dixon is challenging Ball’s NCAA total career touchdown record of 83 that Ball set at Wisconsin from 2009-12. But similar to the rushing touchdown record that Ball owns (see below), Dixon has a challenger. Navy’s Keenan Reynolds enters the year with 61 total touchdowns to his tally, a number that is sure to continue to rise in Navy’s triple-option offense.

KENNETH DIXON WITH A CHANCE AT NCAA RECORD FOR CAREER RUSHING TOUCHDOWNS Running back Kenneth Dixon has a knack for finding the end zone and has done so at an impressive rate. Entering his senior campaign, the Strong, Arkansas native has a chance to challenge Montee Ball for the NCAA record for rushing touchdowns. Dixon entered the year with 53 rushing touchdowns in his career. (See list on the right) But he will have a challenger for the title. Navy senior quarterback Keenan Reynolds entered the season with 64 rushing touchdowns to his credit entering this season.

DIXON TOP RETURNING TOUCHDOWN THREAT IN THE NATION Kenneth Dixon scored 28 total touchdowns last season in Louisiana Tech’s impressive 9-5 season that resulted in a Zaxby’s Heart of Dallas Bowl championship over Illinois. While only two players in the country scored more touchdowns than Dixon last sea-son, both aren’t returning to the collegiate ranks in 2015. Dixon entered the season as the nation’s top returning touchdown scorer.

KENNETH DIXON ONE OF THREE WITH MULTIPLE 1,000-YARD RUSHING SEASONS Last season Kenneth Dixon became one of only three players in Louisiana Tech history to rush for 1,000 yards in multiple sea-sons during their Bulldog careers. Entering 2015, he has a chance to become the first player in school history to record three seasons of 1,000-plus rushing yards.

DIXON SETS SCHOOL RECORD FOR 100-PLUS RUSHING YARD GAMES LA Tech tailback Kenneth Dixon broke yet another school record on Oct. 18, 2014 when his 121 rushing yard performance marked his 14th career game rushing for 100 or more yards. Dixon had been tied with Jason Davis for the most 100-yard performanc-es at 13 times and now stands alone in the category.

BACK TO BOWLING GREEN ... AND IT’S ABOUT TIME Thursday’s game at WKU marks Louisiana Tech’s first return to Bowling Green since 1939, a span of 76 years. That gap between trips to Bowling Green is the longest in school history between trips to a single opponent. The previous longest drought was a 62 years in between trips to Baton Rouge to face LSU (1941 to 2003) as well as 62 years before returning to New Orleans to face Tulane (1936 to 1998).

EAST BOUND AND DOWN Thursday’s game at WKU will mark the first time the Bulldogs will play a conference opener east of the Mississippi River since 1931. That season Louisiana Tech opened Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association play against Union University Bulldogs in Jackson, Tennessee, bringing home a 31-0 win.

JEFF DRISKEL COMPLETES PERFECTION AS STARTING QB IN SEASON OPENERS This year’s opener marked Jeff Driskel’s fourth start in a season opener with three at Florida and one at Louisiana Tech. Driskel found success in all four games, notching a 4-0 in season opening games as the starting QB.

LIGHTS! CAMERA! ACTION! ... TIMES 12 Louisiana Tech will have all 12 regular season games televised throughout the 2015 season, a first for the school. While a member of the Western Athletic Conference and now Conference USA, LA Tech’s television profile has steadily grown. That will take another major step forward this season with all 12 games being televised live.

A WINNING HISTORY Historically, Louisiana Tech has compiled a .500 or better record against eight of its 11 opponents the Bulldogs will be facing this season (with the exception of Southern, a team the Bulldogs have not faced prior to 2015) with even or winning marks against FIU, Louisiana-Lafayette, Middle Tennessee, North Texas, Rice, UTEP, UTSA and Western Kentucky. Tech has compiled a 94-89-7 (.513 winning percentage) all-time record against its 11 opponents.

DOUBLE THE FUN The numbers of Louisiana Tech’s secondary are notable (more on that below) but the Bulldog ball hawkers seem to have a knack for finding the ball multiple times in a single game. Louisiana Tech has three players - Bryson Abraham, Adairius Barnes and Xavier Woods - that have recorded multiple interceptions in a single game in their career. Even more impressive, Barnes has achieved this feat on three separate occassions.

ADAIRIUS BARNES AMONG NATIONAL ACTIVE CAREER INT LEADERS Not only has Adairius Barnes been successful and picking off quarterbacks multiple times in a game, he is among the national active career leaders in interceptions. Barnes enters the week ranked fifth among all FBS players with nine career interceptions.

WOODS SETS SCHOOL RECORD IN INTERCEPTION RETURN YARDS, CAN HE REPLICATE HIS SUCCESS OF 2014? Last year, Xavier Woods set a new school record with an impressive 230 interception return yards on his six interceptions (two returned for touchdowns), a mark that ranked second in the country. That is the most by any Bulldog player except Willie Smith’s 180 interception return yards set in 1994. Woods will look to replicate that success in 2015.

INTERCEPTION STREAK FOR BULLDOGS Entering this week’s game Louisiana Tech’s defense has gone 10 consecutive games with an interception, dating back to the 2014 season. The last time Tech didn’t pick off an opposing quarterback was Sept. 27, 2014 at #5/5 Auburn. In that streak, the Bulldogs have returned 24 interceptions for a combined 307 yards and a touchdown.

INTERCEPTION STREAK EVEN LONGER AT HOME Louisiana Tech’s interception streak in all games is impressive but it isn’t as strong as the dominance the Bulldog defense has displayed at home.

CARLOS HENDERSON A BIG-TIME THREAT Louisiana Tech’s Carlos Henderson is a big play threat whether he be lined up at receiver or returning kicks. One of the - if not the - fastest player in Conference USA, Henderson led the Bulldogs with an impressive 28 plays of over 20 yards last season (Trent Taylor was second on the team with 17). Of those big plays, three were longer than 65 yards (with Henderson reaching the end zone in all three plays). Henderson had one rush, two receptions and 19 kickoff returns for longer than 20 yards over the course of the 2014 season. The highlight (and longest) was a 96-yard kickoff return for a touchdown against WKU. He enters the year just outside of the top 10 in kickoff return yards after recording 826 return yards last year. He needs only 570 return yards to break into the school’s top-five list. (See full list on P. 9)

BALL-HAWKING STARTERS

EXPERIENCED SECONDARY LEADING DEFENSE... Louisiana Tech led the nation in 2014 in interceptions, turnovers gained and passes defended. With three of the four starters returning in the secondary and two reserves with significant playing time, the 2015 defense will likely again rely on the ball hawking ability of the secondary.

...BUT TECH HAS ONE OF THE MOST UNEXPERIENCED LINEBACKING CORPS Louisiana Tech may have an experienced secondary but the Bulldogs bring one of the most inexperienced linebacking corps entering the season. Heading into the year, Louisiana Tech’s seven starts among its entire linebacker group ranks fifth in the nation among the fewest number of returning linebacker starts.

Fewest Returning Linebacker Starts1. TCU 02. Virginia 13. Duke 5 Troy 55. Louisiana Tech 76. Oregon State 10

CHANGE HAS BEEN THE ONLY CONSTANT ON OFFENSIVE LINE Change seems to be the only constant on Louisiana Tech’s offensive line over the past few years. Each of the last three years, LA Tech’s offensive line has started at least three players in their final year of eligibility. That trend continues in 2015. The challenge in that turnover for new offensive line coach Robert McFarland is tasked with putting the best five players up front.

TWENTY-ONE THE MAGIC NUMBER Dating back to the 1998 season, history has shown that when the Louisiana Tech offense struggles the team tends to struggle. Since 1998 the Bulldogs have compiled a 4-62 record when scoring less than 21 points. Before the Bulldogs won the 2008 Inde-pendence Bowl vs. Northern Illinois 17-10, the last victory for Tech when scoring less than 21 points was in 2003 against Michigan State when the Bulldogs upset the then ranked Spartans, 20-19. Tech added a win to that tally on Sept. 4, 2010 when the Bulldogs defeated Grambling State, 20-6 but dropped a 26-20 overtime decision at Mississippi State on Sept. 24, 2011.

OH CAPTAIN, MY (OVERTIME) CAPTAIN! O Captain! my Captain! our fearful trip is (not quite yet) done! While Louisiana Tech has four captains none of them can be seen at the coin toss at midfield when Louisiana Tech enters an overtime game. Instead, punter Logan McPherson or Gerald Shouse will be at midfield. Skip Holtz explains the reasoning behind that: “At that point, the punter’s job is done for the day. Your field goal kicker still has something to do. Not too many teams are punting during overtime. We figured we would send our punter out from a philosophy standpoint. We told him what to call and what the decisions were. Let the captains sit down and talk with their coaches and game plan. We said at the beginning of the year what our plan was going to be. We wanted those other guys to talk with their coaches and focus on what they needed to do.”

GOING TO THE CHAPEL OF LOVE Louisiana Tech has at least three players on its roster that have made the ultimate commitment - marriage or impending marriage. Running back Blake Martin married his long-time girlfriend, Karis, over the past summer. Meanwhile quarterback Jeff Driskel became engaged over the summer to his then-girlfriend and now finacee Tarin Moses while offensive lineman Josh Robinson is engaged to LA Tech track and field athlete Laticia Watson.

THE LAST TIME... 2014RUSTON, La. - Louisiana Tech head coach Skip Holtz talked all week about a high-powered offense that puts up video game numbers playing at Joe Aillet Stadium Saturday. Little did he know, he was talking about his own team as a prolific outing by the Bulldog offense paired with a dominating performance by the defense resulted in a 59-10 rout over Western Kentucky. The win moves Louisiana Tech (6-3) to 5-0 in Conference USA play and keeps the Bulldogs atop C-USA’s West Division standings while also claiming bowl eligibility in Holtz’ second year with the program. WKU (3-5, 1-4) had entered the game ranked fifth in the nation in total offense but was held to season lows in passing (145 yards), total offense (297 yards) and points scored (10). Saturday marked the first time the Hilltoppers - which ranked fourth in the nation in scoring offense entering the game - had been held scoreless in a half this season.

BULLDOGS PROJECTED TO WIN CONFERENCE USA WEST Louisiana Tech as a program has won 25 conference championships in its history - a mark that ranks tied for 11th (with Fresno State) among all current FBS programs - but had never reached a championship game until last season. LA Tech joined Conference USA in 2013, marking the first time the Bulldogs have been in a conference with enough members to allow for a championship game per NCAA rules. Tech fell at Marshall, 26-23, in the 2014 C-USA Championship Game.

RICKY JONES CHALLENGED BY MORE THAN JUST FOOTBALL Former walk-on Ricky Jones is challenged by more than just the demands of a student-athlete. The senior tight end has been diagnosed with diabetes since the seventh grade, but the disease has yet to hold him back. But football might just be helping him manage the disease. The Center for Disease Control (CDC) reports approximately 29.1 million Americans have diabetes with 4.3 million in the 20-44 age range have the disease. The CDC recommends staying active as a way to help prevent and/or manage diabetes.

RICKY JONES ON MANAGING DIABETES AS A STUDENT-ATHLETE:“It is all about how badly you want something. Everybody has aspirations, dreams and goals. In my mind, obstacles are God putting things in your way trying to see how bad you want something. You may get knocked down, but how fast are you going to get up.? That is how I go about everyday life.”

HESTER DEFIES MEDICAL ODDS, OVERCOMES RAMSAY HUNT SYNDROME During Mardi Gras break in spring 2014, strength and conditioning coach Kurt Hester felt a dizziness and suffered from a partial (temporary) facial paralysis. After several tests, he was diagnosed with Ramsay Hunt Syndrome. The Mayo Clinic describes Ramsay Hunt syndrome as occurring when a shingles infection affects the facial nerve near one of the ears. In addition to causing a painful shingles rash, it can also cause facial paralysis and hearing loss in the affected ear. And yet he never missed a day of work. He refused to allow the facial paralysis to slow him down but the vertigo did cause him some issues. Hester would be yelling at players in the weight room above the weights, encouraging them to keep working harder and then the vertigo would hit without warning. All Hester could do would be to grab ahold of something as quick as possible and wait a few moments until he could orient himself.

LOUISIANA LEADS NATION IN NFL PLAYERS PER CAPITA

It’s no secret that Louisiana produces more than its share of NFL players. Once again, it’s been con-firmed as data released from opening day rosters shows the state has more NFL players per capita than any other.

States (per capita) Louisiana -- 1 per 73,119 people South Carolina -- 1 per 85,655 Mississippi -- 1 per 92,728 Alabama -- 1 per 99,578 Florida -- 1 per 101,082 Georgia -- 1 per 101,975 Montana -- 1 per 109,935 District of Columbia -- 1 per 120,345 Texas -- 1 per 136,661 New Jersey -- 1 per 139,554

HOLTZ REACHES 100 CAREER WINS Louisiana Tech head coach Skip Holtz reached a milestone on Nov. 29, 2014 achieved by only 22 other active head coaches. With a 76-31 win over Rice, Holtz secured his 100th career victory as a head coach. He has reached the century plateau while head coach of four different schools: UConn (1994-98), East Carolina (2005-09), South Florida (2010-12) and Louisiana Tech (2013-Pres-ent). See page 9 for a full list of active head coaches with 100-plus wins.

HOLTZ THE FIRST TO TAKE TWO TO C-USA CHAMPIONSHIP GAME When Louisiana Tech faced Marshall on last season for the Conference USA Championship, it marked two firsts. Not only did Louisiana Tech make its first appearance in a conference championship game but Skip Holtz will became the first head coach to take two different schools to the C-USA Championship Game. Holtz previously guided East Carolina to back-to-back C-USA Championships in 2008 and 2009, defeating Tulsa (27-24 in 2008) and Houston (38-32 in 2009) in those appearances.

NITZ-HOLTZ CONNECTION The connection between LA Tech play-by-play announcer Dave Nitz and the Holtz family goes much farther back than Loui-siana Tech. Several years decades ago, Nitz was the play-by-play announcer at William & Mary. During his time in Williamsburg, Va., Nitz called games when the head coach of the Tribe was Lou Holtz, the father of current Louisiana Tech head coach Skip Holtz. Nitz recently recalled a night when he and Lou drove up to Washington, D.C. from Williamsburg to see a Washington Senators game at RFK Stadium. Joining the two for the game was a seven-year old boy in the backseat named Skip.

A LONG TIME VOICE FOR THE RED AND BLUE For Louisiana Tech’s Dave Nitz the 2015 campaign will mark Nitz’s 41st consecutive season of proclaiming “Ya Gotta Love It!” during Bulldog broadcasts on the LA Tech Sports Network, a streak that is one of the longest active broadcast streaks in the nation.

SEEING RED The Sept. 26 game against FIU marks Louisiana Tech’s annual RED OUT game where the Bulldogs wear their red jerseys at home instead of their traditional home blue jerseys. Since instituting the RED OUT game promotion in 2009, Louisiana Tech has gone 3-3 in those games.

SEVEN IN A ROW IS JUST ANOTHER LOUISIANA SATURDAY NIGHT As Louisiana Tech rolled to a 48-20 win over Louisiana-Lafayette on Sept. 6, 2014 in Lafayette, it seemed like just another Louisiana Saturday Night for the Bulldogs. That’s because LA Tech extended its winning streak over the Ragin’ Cajuns to seven - the longest either side has maintained in the 86-game history - and done so in dominating fashion. Over the seven game winning streak, Louisiana Tech has won by an average of 30 points with the average score being 48-18 in the Bulldogs’ favor. In those seven games, LA Tech has been held to under 30 points just once (a 24-20 win in 2004) while ULL has scored over 30 points just once (a 41-31 Tech win in 1999). The biggest Tech win came in 1998 as Tim Rattay led the Bulldogs to a 77-14 win over ULL (then named USL).

LOOKING TO GO ABOVE .500 IN TEXAS While Louisiana Tech has posted a winning record against teams from the state of Texas, the Bulldogs are an even at .500 when playing in the Lone Star State. LA Tech is 36-36-1 all-time when playing in the state of Texas after going 2-0 last year with a dominating 42-21 win at North Texas on Sept. 11 and a 35-18 win over Illinois at the Cotton Bowl in the Zaxby’s Heart of Dallas Bowl. The Bulldogs will have three chances in 2015 to push that overall record above even with games at UTSA (Oct. 10), Rice (Oct. 30) and UTEP (Nov. 21).

HOME SUCCESS AGAINST IN-STATE TEAMS Louisiana is home to several successful football programs but they seem to struggle to find success when visiting the friendly confines of Joe Aillet Stadium. Since moving to Division I-A/FBS in 1989, LA Tech is 14-5 at Joe Aillet Stadium against in-state teams including the 62-15 win over Southern on Sept. 5.

BULLDOG OPENER HISTORY After Louisiana Tech beate Southern, 62-15, to open the 2015 campaign the Bulldogs moved to 52-51-5 all-time in season openers. That mark includes a record of 10-1 at Joe Aillet Stadium with eight consecutive wins in season openers at home. Tech’s only loss in Joe Aillet Stadium on opening day was 12-7 to Tennessee-Chattanooga in 1978. Some notes about Louisiana Tech’s opener and home opener history: - LA Tech has never opened the season against an in-state foe at Joe Aillet Stadium since moving to I-A/FBS in 1989 until hosting Southern in 2015 - Only three times since moving to I-A/FBS in 1989 as LA Tech opened the season against a Louisiana team: - 1989 at UL-Lafayette W, 40-14 First game, first win as a member of Division I-A/FBS - 2010 vs. Grambling State (Shreveport, La.) W, 20-6 - 2015 vs. Southern W, 62-15 - The Sept. 5 game against Sotuhern marked only the third time in the last 10 years and only the seventh time since moving to Division I-A/FBS 26 years ago (1989) the Bulldogs have opened a season in Ruston Opening the season at home 2015 Southern W, 62-15 2008 Mississippi State W, 22-14 2007 Central Arkansas W, 28-7 2004 Nevada W, 38-21 2000 Mississippi Valley State W, 63-10 1997 Bowling Green W, 30-23 1996 Middle Tennessee W, 20-0 - On three occasions, LA Tech has opened the season hosting a game at Independence Stadium in Shreveport, Tech’s “home away from home” 2003 vs. #2 Miami (Fla.)

DALLAS IS BULLDOG #BOWLDOG COUNTRY Dallas is definitely Bulldog #BowlDog Country after Louisiana Tech registered a 35-18 win over Illinois in the 2014 Zaxby’s Heart of Dallas Bowl at the Cotton Bowl on Dec. 26, 2014.

ON THE PLAYING FIELDS:

Men’s Basketball won the C-USA regular season title, the third straight league title for the program and the first outright title since 1999, and advanced to the NIT quarterfinals for a second straight year which included a victory at Texas A&M.

Soccer head coach Kevin Sherry and star player Kathryn Sloan earned Louisiana Coach and Player of the Year honors in light of the team posting a 13-6-3 record and winning their first ever postseason match which advanced them to the C-USA Tournament semifinals.

Baseball registered 10 more wins than the previous year under the direction of first-year head coach Greg Goff, an improvement that was the seventh most in program history, while also tying a Bulldog record with a 12-game non-conference winning streak.

Golfer Victor Lange was named Conference USA’s Golfer of the Year while also earning a bid to the NCAA Regionals for a second straight year, finishing in the top 25 during the three-round event.

Football won the Conference USA West Division title and accepted a bid to play in the Zaxby’s Heart of Dallas Bowl where they defeated Illinois, 35-18, to post the program’s first bowl victory since 2008.

Indoor track and field star Jarvis Gotch recorded the eighth longest jump in the world for the season and set the school record with a mark of 26-7.75 (8.12m) at the Vanderbilt Indoor Invitational.

Outdoor track and field sprinter Charla Craddock (200m) and long jumper Jarrett Samuels received honorable mention All-America honors for their top-20 finishes at the NCAA Championships.

Women’s basketball received a flood of national media coverage, including feature pieces by 60-Minute Sports, USA Today, SI.com, ESPN.com, NBC Nightly News, ESPN SportsCenter, New York Times, CNN.com, and more in Tyler Summitt’s first year as head coach.

Softball head coach Mark Montgomery guided the Lady Techsters to a 31-win season, the most victories since 2008, and came three outs away from defeating WCWS participant LSU in Baton Rouge.

SUMMA CUM LAUDE TECH The athletic success of Louisiana Tech - both past and present - is easy to see (particularly in this release) but did you know Louisiana Tech is one of the top academic schools in the state and region?

► Louisiana Tech is ranked as a Tier One National University according to U.S. News & World Report’s 2015 Best Colleges Report.

► Louisiana Tech is north Louisiana’s only Carnegie RU/H “High Research” and SREB Four-Year Doctoral 2 Research University.

► Louisiana Tech is the highest ranked university in Louisiana and No. 13 in the nation for return on investment (ROI) for graduates (PayScale.com’s 2014-15 College Salary Report).

► Louisiana Tech is ranked as one of the nation’s 25 Most Affordable Colleges (for both in-state and out-of-state students) by Newsweek and The Daily Beast.

► Louisiana Tech is ranked highest in Louisiana and No. 21 in the nation for providing its graduates with the best returns on their investments (ROI) in their college educations (AdvisorOne).

► Louisiana Tech is ranked highest in the state of Louisiana and No. 11 in the nation on list of “25 Most Underrated Colleges in America” from Business Insider.

► Louisiana Tech is ranked highest in the state of Louisiana and No. 17 in nation among “Low Cost Colleges with High Starting Salaries for Graduates” (Affordable Colleges Online).

BEYOND THE HASH MARKS Success for the Bulldog Football program extends beyond the playing field and even outside the classroom. Recently,

► LA Tech student-athletes annually volunteer more than 2,000 hours of community service each school year with all 16 Division I sanctioned programs involved in some aspect of giving back to the community.

► At the program’s last Pigskins & Pearls Women’s Clinic and Luncheon, over $2,100 was raised for the Boys’ & Girls’ Club of North Central Louisiana.

► Over the summer, the losing team from the program’s annual Spring Game hosted a charity car wash, raising several hundred dollars for the Boys’ & Girls’ Club of North Central Louisiana.

► Tech’s football program also sponsors Bulldogs Tackling Breast Cancer each season with a game dedicated to those who are fighting or have fought breast cancer. Special commemorative hats are sold with all proceeds going towards a local charity, Wiggin’ Out, that purchases wigs, lymphatic sleeves and prosthetic bras for those fighting cancer that cannot afford them. www.WigginOut.org

HOLTZ COACHING EXPERIENCE

in the Zaxby’s Heart of Dallas Bowl at Cotton Bowl Stadi-um on Dec. 26, 2014. In 2014, Holtz engineered an offense that was ranked fourth most improved with an average of 37.4 points per game, while Louisiana Tech was the national leader in points off of turnovers on the defensive side of the ball. In his first season he inherited a team that lost 35 seniors with seven being invited to NFL camps (two through the NFL Draft) and brought together the team as it entered a new conference (Conference USA) under a new President and new Athletics Director, going 4-8. Holtz had spent the past three seasons as the head football coach at the University of South Florida. He has also served as the head coach at the University of Connecticut and East Carolina University where he won back-to-back Conference USA titles with the Pirates in 2008 and 2009. He also led his teams to five consecutive post-season bowl games between 2006 and 2010. Holtz has participated in 16 postseason games in his coaching career, including eight as a head coach and eight as an assistant coach. Of the eight games as head coach, six occurred in the Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) and two occurred in the Football Championship Subdivision (FCS). In all, he has been involved in eight New Year’s Day bowl games during his coaching career. Born March 12, 1964, in Willimantic, Conn., Louis “Skip” Holtz spent the first two years of his life in Con-necticut, while his father served as the top football as-sistant on the Huskies’ staff from 1964-65. He attended Holy Cross Junior College in South Bend, Ind., for two years before transferring to Notre Dame in 1984. Holtz earned his bachelor’s degree in business management in 1986 and was a football letterwinner for the Irish that same year, appearing in all 11 games as a special teams member and backup flanker.
