Looking Back at 2013Belmont recorded a program-best 37 regular season wins, including a win over nationally ranked Mercer during

the 2013 season. BU enjoyed a nine-game win streak through March and early April, including two sweeps over new con-

ference foes Eastern Kentucky and Morehead State. The Bruins finished their inaugural year in the Ohio Valley

Conference with a 38-20 record overall and a 22-8 mark in conference play and received votes in national polls five

times throughout the season. In its inaugural season in the

Ohio Valley Conference, the Bruins earned the three-seed

for the OVC Tournament, but the ended their season with

a 2-1 loss to Southeast Missouri, snapping their two year

streak of NCAA Touranament play. Dan Ludwig finished

the season tied for 15th nationally with a conference-best

11 wins. Ludwig also found his name in the record books,

setting the single-season record for wins. Jessie Snodgrass

also inked his name in the record books with his confer-

ence-best 44 appearances on the mound. Snodgrass also

had a league-best 2.23 ERA. Ludwig and Josh Davis

earned First Team All-OVC honors, Chase Brookshire and

Drew Turner picked up Second Team All-OVC honors, and

Dom Veltri was named to the All-Freshman Team.

The Class of 2013

Chase Brookshire earned National Pitcher of the Week honors by Collegiate Baseball Newspaper after tossing a

complete game in Belmont’s 6-3 win over Jacksonville State in the OVC Tournament. The left-hander struck out a career-

high 14, which broke the single-game strikeouts record in the OVC Touranment in 12 years. Brookshire was also named to

the All-Tournament Team for his performance. Brookshire finished his collegiate career as the Bruins’ career strikeouts

leader with 339 and as the all-time leader in innings pitched with 360. He was also one of ten Senior CLASS finalists.

Josh Davis proved to be a crucial two-way player for the Bruins, seeing time as the designated hitter, at second

base and as a reliever. He was one of 11 Division I players on the John Olerud Two-Way Player of the Year Watch List.

On the hill, he registered a 2.22 ERA and a 3-13 record through 44.2 innings of work. He also recorded 12 saves, which

ranked him tied for 27th nationally.

Drew Turner finished second on the team with a batting average of .318, a team-leading 67 hits, 15 doubles,

one triple and 29 runs batted in. Judah Akers had a team-leading 10 homers and Dan Huenecke earned his first career

save over nationally ranked Mercer. Snodgrass set the Belmont single season record with 44 appearances, which was also

a conference-best. The right-hander registered a 2.23 ERA, struck out 77 and had two saves.

Jared Breen was a valuable assest to the Bruins both offensively and defensively. He hit .292, had 61 hits, seven

home runs, registered a .464 slugging percentage and stole nine-of-10 bases, successfully. The short stop had a team-

high 148 assists and registered 73 putouts.

2013 MLB Amateur Draft

Brookshire was drafted in the 20th round by the St. Louis Cardinals. The left-hander made his first professional

start for the State College Spikes, a Class A Short Season Affiliate, against Mahoning Valley Scrappers. He tossed two

innings, giving up one hit and striking out two.

Breen went in the 24th round by the Baltimore Orioles. Breen made his professional debut at shortstop for the

Aberdeen Ironbirds, a Class A Short Season Affiliate, who were the 2013 McNamara Division Champions. Breen found his

way into the Ironbird record book quickly after an 18-game hit streak, which is the longest in the 11-year history of the

franchise.

Snodgrass signed a professional contract with the Windy City Thunderbolts of the Frontier League. He made 26

appearances for a 1.92 ERA for a 3-0 record. He struck out 25 and earned one save.

Davis signed a free agent contract with the Chicago Cubs and earned his first professional win with the Arizona

Cubs against the Arizona Padres. He tossed one inning of relief while giving up a hit and striking out one, en route to the

win.

Austin Coley was selected in the 27th round by the New York Mets, but chose to remain on the Bruins staff for his

junior season. Newcomer Tyler Walsh was selected in the 15th round by the Baltimore Orioles.Page 9

Belmont has worked with Nashville’s Metro Board of Parks and Recreation to provide $8 million worth of

enhancements to nearby E.S. Rose Park, which also allows the University to lease space for athletics. Rose Park

opened in the spring of 2011, just in time for the Belmont Baseball team to play the final games of the 2011

season.

The enhancements provide new resources for the Edgehill community and Belmont student-athletes, including

accessible walking trails, softball, baseball, and soccer fields, and a track.

The Metro Parks Board maintains the exclusive authority to schedule the use of the park and will remain the

sole owner of the park and its improvements. Utilizing the new sports fields and their accompanying concessions

will be neighbors from the Edgehill community, athletic teams from nearby public schools, the youth and adult

recreational programs of Metro Parks, neighborhood churches, community groups, nonprofit sports organiza-

tions and Belmont University.

The university also agreed to award eight full Belmont scholarships and two partial ones to students in the

Edgehill community and help sponsor neighborhood little league baseball and softball teams.

Now in its 66th year, the Ohio Valley Conference contin-

ues to build on the success that has made it the nation's

eighth-oldest NCAA Division I conference.

In May 2011 the Conference expanded for the second time in four years, adding Belmont University which

began competition in the 2012-13 academic year. The addition of Belmont gives the OVC 12 members, the

most the league has had at one time in its illustrious history. The move added a second team in the city of

Nashville and was the first addition to the league since Southern Illinois University Edwardsville joined in 2008.

The 2009-10 school year saw a change in leadership as Beth DeBauche was named the seventh full-time

Commissioner in league history on July 28, 2009. She is currently one of just five females to be the head of a

Division I conference, and one of just eight to lead a Division I conference all-time. The last three commissioners

of the OVC have moved onto jobs as the commissioner of the Big Ten, Big 12 and the Mid-American

Conferences.

Over its 65 years, OVC teams have garnered national championships and bowl games in football, along

with national team or individual titles in the sports of rifle, cross country, track and golf.

The playing field is not the only place where OVC athletes are working hard. The league also recognizes

excellence in the classroom. Six Scholar-Athlete Awards are presented yearly to male and female athletes,

while others are commended for their academic success by being Medal of Honor recipients or earning a spot

on the Commissioner's Honor Roll. Additionally, the league annually presents one institutional Academic

Achievement Award, as well as separate team awards in each Conference-sponsored sport. Since the College

Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA) Academic All-

America program began, the Ohio Valley Conference has had 215

student-athletes honored with the award, including 36 over the last

four years (2009-10, 2010-11, 2011-12, 2012-13).

The Ohio Valley Conference sponsors the following sports: base-

ball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, tennis and track for

men, and basketball, cross country, golf, soccer, softball, tennis, track

and volleyball for women. In addition, the OVC also sponsors the

combined men's and women's sport of rifle.

Now in its seventh decade of competition, the Ohio Valley Conference has grown significantly from its hum-

ble beginnings while increasing the number of athletics opportunities it provides for students.

Current league representatives include charter members Eastern Kentucky University, Morehead State

University and Murray State University, along with Austin Peay State University, Belmont University, Eastern

Illinois University, Jacksonville State University, Southeast Missouri State University, Southern Illinois University

Edwardsville, Tennessee State University, Tennessee Technological University and the University of Tennessee at

Martin.

Belmont University sits on 75 historic acres two miles southwest of downtown Nashville, Tenn.,

a thriving metropolis known worldwide as Music City USA. In the mid-1800s, the land the university

now occupies was known as the Belle Monte estate, the Victorian home of one of Tennessee's wealthi-

est couples, Joseph and Adelicia Acklen. Their antebellum Belmont Mansion remains today, flanked by

university buildings separated in age by more than a century.

Belmont University is among the fastest growing Christian universities in the nation with more

than 6,600 students hailing from every state and 25 countries. Since 2000, enrollment has risen from

just under 3,000 to 6,647 students for the 2012-13 school year. As enrollment steadily increases, so

does the quality and diversity of each new class. Incoming freshmen represented 48 states and 14

foreign countries and scored an average of 26.4 on the ACT.

Academics

Intent on being a leader among teaching universities, Belmont brings together the best of lib-

eral arts and professional education in a Christian community of learning and service. Belmont was

ranked seventh on the U.S. News & World Report listing of "Best Universities" in the South in the mas-

ter's category for the 2013 edition of America's Best Colleges, making Belmont the highest ranked uni-

versity in Tennessee in this category. In addition, Belmont was named a top "Up-and-Comer" for the

fifth year in a row, a high honor that indicates the strength of the university's reputation and innova-

tions.

Both Rolling Stone and Time magazines have hailed Belmont's Mike Curb College of

Entertainment & Music Business as one of the best music business programs in the country. The Jack C. Massey Graduate School of Business

has been named the best MBA program in the region, and Belmont's business administration and accounting programs have earned accredi-

tation by AACSB International, the premier accrediting agency in that arena. Moreover, Belmont's entrepreneurship program has been

named a National Model Undergraduate Program by the United States Association of Small Business and Entrepreneurship and recognized

as a Top 20 program by the Princeton Review.

Students who have passions outside of the music industry also have a home at Belmont. From international business and accounting

to education, sport administration, nursing, journalism and the humanities, Belmont provides avenues of learning for almost any interest.

Recent program additions include interdisciplinary studies in social entrepreneurship, motion pictures and Asian studies as well as a doctoral

degree in pharmacy, a program that is already gaining acclaim for its four-pillared approach to educating pharmacists for an ever-evolving

health care environment. In addition, Belmont's College of Law began its first classes in fall 2011. The university's fourth doctoral program,

Belmont's College of Law provides a natural extension of the university's mission and vision, which emphasize challenging academics, a serv-

ice-minded approach, real-world experience and community leadership.

Belmont's boundaries extend beyond the Nashville campus through its Cool Springs campus and organized programs such as the

Washington Center program and music business' Belmont West in Los Angeles and Belmont East in New York City. Study-abroad programs

place students in China, Costa Rica, Great Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Russia, South Africa and Spain, among other foreign nations. Also,

Belmont serves as a regional site for the East-West Center for the Development of Asian Studies and is the host institution for the

Cooperative Center for Study Abroad, a higher education consortium of 23 colleges and universities.

Campus Growth

As Belmont's academic program offerings grow, so too does the physical campus. In 2012, the university opened the Randall and

Sadie Baskin Center, a 71,000 square foot facility which serves as the home for the College of Law and law library and includes a five-

level underground garage.

Also in fall 2012, Board of Trustees Chair Marty Dickens and his wife Betty joined University employees and students at a grand

opening celebration for a new residence named in their honor. Dickens Hall, located near the intersection of 15th and Bernard Avenues, pro-

vides approximately 300 beds for Belmont upperclassmen as well as a 562-car underground parking garage. An adjoining residence hall

(Magnolia) providing an additional 190 beds opens in January 2013.

A Christian Community of Learning and Service

In 2007, the university's formal relationship with the Tennessee Baptist Convention ended. In recent years, Belmont broadened its

mission and now includes on its Board of Trustees members of all Christian denominations. In addition, Belmont joined the Lilly Fellows

Program's National Network of Church-Related Colleges and Universities, a collective that also includes Baylor University, Boston College,

Villanova and Notre Dame, among others.

Belmont is a student-focused, Christian community of learning and service where students hear from their first visit to campus until

the day they graduate that they are created for a purpose in life. The Belmont faculty and staff dedicate themselves to preparing and

empowering students to find their passion and use it to change the world. The university seeks to show every student how the love of Christ

can compel them to lead lives of disciplined intelligence, compassion, courage and faith.

With more than 80 areas of study, 23 master's programs and five doctoral degrees, there is no limit to the ways Belmont University

can expand an individual's horizon.

Looking ahead to the 2014 Season

The Bruins graduated seven seniors (Judah Akers, Jared Breen, Chase Brookshire, Josh Davis, Dan Huenecke, Jessie

Snodgrass and Drew Turner), who won 115 games in the last three years and a total of 142 games during their careers. They

also had a hand in Belmont’s two NCAA Tournament appearances, including the first-ever Belmont team to win an NCAA

Tournament game in any sport. Head Coach Dave Jarvis and the BU squad return several experienced players and add 11

newcomers to a team that looks to continue success in the OVC and return to the postseason.

On the pitching staff, Belmont returns First Team All-OVC honoree Dan Ludwig, who posted an 11-2 record and an ERA

of 3.83. His 11 wins on the mound ranked him tied for 15th nationally and led the conference. The left-hander contributed

greatly to the staff last season after moving from the midweek starter to the weekend rotation and finished with a team-high

94 innings of work and 72 strikeouts.

Austin Coley returns for the Bruins after posting an unblemished 6-0 mark on the hill with a 3.32 ERA. He struck out 65

and only walked 14 in 57 innings of work. The right-hander sat out the final stretch of last season after suffering an injury.

Scott Moses saved four games for BU last season after making 22 appearances, including one start. The two-way player struck

out 18 batters in his 34 innings on the mound. James Buckelew, Blake Harvey and Zach Hodgkiss also return for the Bruins to

add depth on the hill. The Bruins also add three new freshmen pitchers in Michael Ray, Christopher Carroll and Ben Lovell along

with two transfers in Patrick McGrath and Chase Cunningham, who had successful junior college careers.

At the plate, Alec Diamond led the Bruins with a .351 average, while Drew Ferguson led the team with a .447 on base

percentage after 62 hits, three home runs, drawing a conference-high 42 walks and being hit by a pitch 18 times. Matt Beaty

also returns for the Bruins after hitting .285 last season with 11 doubles, four home runs and 32 runs batted in. Jamie Ritchie,

who had 30 RBI last season, returns to his role behind the plate, splitting time with Diamond.

Dom Veltri earned All-Freshman Team honors after starting 35 games in the outfield and made 10 appearanecs on the

mound. At the plate, he hit .246 with three doubles, three home runs and 16 RBI. He made three starts on the mound and seven

relief appearances for a 3.60 ERA and recorded his first collegiate save.

For the 2014 season, Belmont adds 11 new faces to the roster. Christopher Carroll, Chase Cunningham, Ben Lovell,

Patrick McGrath and Michael Ray join the Bruin pitching staff. Carroll was the 9AAA Pitcher of the Year with a 5-3 record and

a 1.33 ERA. Cunningham played two seasons at Walters State Community College where he went 4-2 with a 2.35 ERA and

five saves. Lovell went 20-1 in his last two seasons of high school helping Westminster Christian to its second-straight Missouri

Class-3 State Championship. McGrath joins the staff by way of Jackson State Community College. In his first year with Jackson

State he compiled an 8-1 record in 12 starts and the Generals finished in fourth place in the TCCAA.

Page 14

Page 15: 2014 Belmont Baseball Media Guide

Looking ahead to the 2014 SeasonBU also adds Rafael Bournigal, Drake Byrd, Nick Egli, Zach

Hald, Brennan Washington and Tyler Walsh. Bournigal earned All-County

honors and led his team (Lakeland Christian) in RBIs, extra base hits and

home runs. Byrd hit .451 with five home runs during his junior season and

was elected to the Tennessee Sports Writer’s All-State Team. Egli, a local

product from Battle Ground Academy, led the team in RBIs, doubles, slug-

ging percentage and home runs, and hit .402 in his senior season. Hald

earned the Best Defensive Player Award and was named the Georgia

Dugout Club Outstanding Player after leading his team (Roswell HS) in

postseason batting average as they played in the Georgia State

Championship. Washington is another local product from Ensworth High

School and was coached by former major leaguer Jason Maxwell. Walsh,

a 15th round draft pick by the Baltimore Orioles, had a .400 batting

average with six home runs, 27 doubles and 29 stolen bases in his senior

year at Mater Dei HS, and was an All-State (Indiana) selection.

Belmont’s 2014 season is highlighted by regional rivalries and

national powers. The Bruins open the season with a seven-game homes-

tand beginning February 14 with a three-game series at Rose Park with

defending MAC champion Bowling Green. Also noteworthy during the

homestand is a three-game series with Mercer, who finished 2013 with a

37 RPI and earned an NCAA Tournament at-large berth. Belmont will

play no fewer than 19 games against programs in the Top 100 of the

2013 RPI. Among the Bruins’ midweek contests include home-and-home

sets with defending SEC regular season champion Vanderbilt, Middle

Tennessee, Memphis, Western Kentucky, Evansville and Lipscomb.

A three-game road series with Southeast Missouri on March 7

will open Belmont’s OVC schedule. During the Bruins’ bye week from con-

ference action, the team will travel to Oklahoma for the first time in

Division I program history to play a three-game series with Oklahoma

University March 14-16. The Sooners advanced to the NCAA LSU Super

Regional in 2013. Defending OVC champion, Austin Peay comes to Rose

Park on April 17-19. The OVC Tournament will return to The Ballpark at

Jackson (Tenn.) May 21-25.

Head Coach Dave Jarvis enters his 17th season at the helm of the Belmont baseball team after three suc-cessful campaigns from 2011 to 2013. Jarvis has consistently led Bruin baseball to excel in the classroom while

competing at the top of the conference standings. Belmont competed in the Atlantic Sun for 15 years, where theBruins won two straight championships before joining the Ohio Valley Conference in 2013. In its inaugural year in the OVC, Belmont finished third.

In 2013, Belmont finished the season 38-20 with a 22-8 mark in their first year in the OVC. The Bruins set the regular season record for wins at37 in a 13-10 win at Tennessee Tech. Five Bruins, Chase Brookshire, Dan Ludwig, Josh Davis, Drew Turner and Dom Veltri, earned All-OVC honors.Belmont also led their new conference in team pitching with an ERA of 3.78. Senior Jessie Snodgrass led the league in ERA (2.23) and appearances(44). Snodgrass’ 44 appearance also set the Belmont single-season record. Sophomore Dan Ludwig recorded a conference-high 11 wins, which alsoset the Belmont single-season record. Senior Chase Brookshire, who earned All-OVC Tournament honors, struck out 14 Jacksonville State batters, toset the OVC Tournament record. Brookshire was drafted by the St. Louis Cardinals in the 20th round, followed by Jared Breen by the BaltimoreOrioles in the 24th round.

Jarvis’ Belmont baseball team left the A-Sun on a high note, winning back-to-back league championships in its final two opportunities.

Back in 2009, the Bruins returned to the Atlantic Sun Tournament Semifinals for the third consecutive season behind the potent pair of record-setting veteran infielder Derek Wiley and up-and-coming outfielder Dylan Craig. Wiley gradu-ated owning six Belmont career batting records and the Atlantic Sun record for careerhomeruns (58).

He works as the pitching coach,and also oversees the operation of Belmont's instructional camps as the camp director.

Under Barnett's direction, twelve Belmont pitchers have been earned First or Second Team All-Conferencehonors in the last 13 seasons, including Chase Brookshire’s unanimous first team selection in 2012. The success of the Belmont pitching staff has beenintegral to the squad’s success as the team led the Ohio Valley Conference and was ranked nationally with a 3.78 ERA.

The 2013 Belmont Bruins set a school record for regular season victories at 37 and led the league in Team ERA for the second straight season.They also were in the top 30 in the nation in strikeouts per nine innings (7.7), top 40 in the nation in strikeout to walk ratio (2.42) and the top 70 inthe nation in whip (1.33). Chase Brookshire capped his stellar career in style by being a second team All OVC member while being 19th in the nationin strikeout per nine innings (10.39), 8th in the nation in hits allowed per nine innings (5.7), 9th in the nation in strikeout to walk ratio (6.83), and thirdin the nation in WHIP (.80). He was also a finalist for the Senior CLASS Award. Dan Ludwig set the single season mark for victories with 11, which puthim 15th in the nation in victories and landed him on the All-OVC First Team. Josh Davis had 12 saves on the mound and was also on the All-OVCFirst Team. He was also a finalist for the John Olerud Two-Way Player List as well as the NCBWA stopper of the year watch list. Jessie Snodgrass seta single season record for appearances at 44 and was 40th in the nation in strikeouts per nine innings (9.54).

The 2013 Bruins pitching staff was well represented in professional baseball as Chase Brookshire was drafted by the St. Louis Cardinals in the20th round, Austin Coley was drafted by the New York Mets in the 27th round, Josh Davis was a free agent signee with the Chicago Cubs and JessieSnodgrass signed a deal with the Windy City Thunderbolts of the Independent Frontier League.

The Bruins were named National Pitching Staff of the Week by InsidePitching.com following a 4-0 week that saw Belmont allow just four runs inwins over Austin Peay and USC Upstate. There were a number of individual pitching successes in 2012, including Brookshire’s postseason accolades.Scott Moses and Austin Coley were named to that A-Sun All-Freshman Team, while the former also picked up a Pitcher of the Week Honor. SeniorMatt Hamann was named A-Sun Pitcher of the Week three times, and Southeast Pitcher of the Week for a complete game one-hitter.

In 2011, Barnett helped a duo of starting pitchers earn postseason accolades, as Matt Hamann was named to the All-Atlantic Sun First Team andChase Brookshire received Second Team honors. Under Barnett's tutelage, Jon Ivie broke both Belmont's single-season and career saves records with15 and 26, respectively. In addition, three Bruins were named A-Sun Pitcher of the Week over the course of the 2011 season. Brookshire, Hamann,and Nate Woods each earned the accolades during the historic season.

In 2010, Ivie turned into one of the premier closers in southern baseball, leading the A-Sun with 10 saves en route to First Team All-Atlantic Sunhonors. Freshman lefthander Chase Brookshire also blossomed into a trusted starter, tallying a team-high six victories on his way to Atlantic Sun All-Freshman Team accolades.

In 2008, Carlo Testa was named First Team All-Conference as a starting pitch-er and a position player, the only time this has occurred in the Atlantic Sun. Testawas later selected in the 18th round of the MLB Draft by the Kansas City Royals.The 2008 campaign also yielded 14 team saves, the second-most in the A-Sun.

Barnett has coached three closers who have finished in the top-five onBelmont's career saves list; Jimmy Stanley recorded 15 saves in three seasons as aBruin (2007-09). Chris Manning tied the school record at the time of 25 saves inthree seasons at Belmont (2006-08). Ivie then broke the record with 26 saves from2008-11. Stanley and Ivie have been named to the NCBWA Stopper of the Yearwatch list in 2009 and 2010 & 2011, respectively.

With an 8-2 record in 2007, starting pitcher Charles Lee came within one winof tying Belmont's single-season win record on his way to a First Team All-Conference selection. Lee finished his career with 16 career wins on the mound, thethird-most during Belmont's NCAA era.

Relief pitcher Blake Owen set a then single-season Belmont record of 13 saveswhile posting an ERA of 0.81 under the direction of Barnett in 2005. Owenearned First Team All-Conference in his lone season at Belmont and went on to bethe highest Bruin selected in the MLB Draft during the NCAA era. After his junioryear as a Bruin, Owen was picked by the Baltimore Orioles in the sixth round (183rd overall).

With a style that emphasizes the ability to keep pitch count down by eliminating the batter in three pitches or less, the Bruin pitching staff wasone of the best in the conference in 2004. The Bruins were at the top of the league in hits allowed, runs allowed and earned run average.

Barnett also led a stand-out year for the Bruins in 2005, as five pitchers posted winning records while the staff struck out 307 batters andwalked just 129.

Also under Barnett's direction, Will Tucker broke the then single season mark for saves with 12; Shane Haas tied the school record for wins withnine, and a handful of pitchers earned Atlantic Sun Pitcher of the Week honors.

UNIVERSITY

Dr. RoberT Fisher

President at Belmont University

Dr. Robert (Bob) Fisher serves as President of Belmont University, a position he has held

since April 2000. During his tenure the University's enrollment has more than doubled while

the campus itself has expanded significantly with the additions of the Curb Event Center and

Beaman Student Life Center, the Gordon E. Inman Center, the Troutt Theater complex,

McWhorter Hall and several new residence halls and parking garages. Under his leadership

Belmont University also broke into the Top 5 for the first time in the Best Regional

Universities South category in U.S. News & World Report's analysis of America's Best

Colleges. Soaring to No. 5 in the 2011 edition, Belmont was also honored for the third year in a row as one of the top

schools nationwide for "leading the pack in improvements and innovative changes."

Academically, the University has added numerous new interdisciplinary programs in the past decade, including Social

Entrepreneurship, New Century Journalism, Pharmacy and, most recently, the Belmont College of Law which will wel-

come its first class this fall. In addition, Fisher worked to secure Belmont as the host site for the 2008 Town Hall

Presidential Debate, a historic event broadcast worldwide that also led to Fisher's selection as 2008 Tennessean of the

Year and 2010 Nashvillian of the Year.

Dr. Fisher's greatest sense of accomplishment comes not from new campus structures, stronger endowments or an

ever-increasing student population. Rather, he measures achievement through witnessing education's impact on each indi-

vidual student. "The student is the focus of all our efforts here at Belmont," Fisher said, "and our top priority is meeting

the needs of those students. My life's mission is to help create experiences that transform people, especially students, in

ways that enable them to become all they were created to be."

Prior to his appointment at Belmont, Fisher was vice president for academic affairs at Arkansas State University for

four years and was dean of the School of Business at Henderson State University, his alma mater, for 10 years. Fisher

earned a B.S.B.A. from Henderson State, an M.B.A. from the University of Memphis and a Ph.D. from the University of

Arkansas.

In addition to his success as both faculty member and higher education administrator, Fisher is also an accomplished

author with his most recent work, Life Is a Gift: Inspiration from the Soon Departed, released in 2008. Co-authored with

his wife Judy, Life Is a Gift features a collection of lessons learned from interviews with 104 terminally ill patients of Alive

Hospice in Nashville. Dr. Fisher previously co-authored Real Dream Teams: Seven Practices Used by World-Class Team

Leaders to Achieve Extraordinary Results, published by St. Lucie Press, with Belmont's Vice President of University

Advancement Dr. Bo Thomas.

Expressing knowledge gained from his business degrees and management positions, Dr. Fisher has published numer-

ous articles on management and leadership and has consulted with a wide variety of organizations on human resource

and strategic planning issues, including Kimberly-Clark Corporation, Alltel, Arkla Gas and the U.S. Department of

Transportation, among others. In 1992, Fisher served in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, as a Fulbright Scholar, conducting

research and consulting with the National Institute of Public Administration. He also provided a keynote address at the

Arabian Society for Human Resource Management Conference in Bahrain in 1998.

Active in his community, Fisher has served in numerous volunteer roles with such organizations as Alignment

Nashville, the Nashville Alliance for Public Education and the PENCIL Foundation, all of which support Nashville's pub-

lic schools. He also is a past chair of the Greater Nashville Area Chamber of Commerce. He is an active member of the

Rotary Club of Nashville, participates in Nashville's Agenda and is a 2001 graduate of Leadership Nashville. He also serves

as a member of the Board of Directors for the Southern Financial Partners, a division of Southern Bancorp, Inc. In addi-

tion, he has been a member of the Board of Directors for the United Way of Metropolitan Nashville, the Country Music

Hall of Fame, the Boy Scouts of Middle Tennessee, the Nashville Symphony, the YMCA of Middle Tennessee, Music City

Coalition,TICUA, Fifth Third Bank-Tennessee Division, Cumberland Region Tomorrow and the NCAA Division I Board

of Directors and Executive Committee.

Married for over 40 years, Dr. Fisher and his wife Judy share in their commitment to Belmont University, where Mrs.

Fisher provides support through her role as campus-wide coordinator of interior construction and exterior

landscaping/lighting.The Fishers are the proud parents of three grown children and have two wonderful sons-in-law, one

wonderful daughter-in-law and six perfect grandsons.

Now entering his 18th year as Director of Athletics, Mike Strickland has led Belmont's

Department of Athletics through its infancy stages as a new NCAA Division I program to become one

that sees annual success on the field and in the classroom. During his tenure at Belmont, the program

has expanded the number of teams it fields, transitioned from an NCAA Division I independent to the

Atlantic Sun Conference and now the Ohio Valley Conference, enhanced its facilities, and established a

reputation producing winning teams and distinguished student-athletes.

Since arriving in Nashville in 1996, Strickland has overseen the inception of six new sports at

Belmont: women's soccer, women's golf and men's and women's indoor and outdoor track and field. In

addition, the University has built the Frances Bond Davis Tennis Courts, as well the most recent partnership with Metro Parks for

athletic fields at E.S. Rose Park.This exciting new venture houses Belmont baseball, softball, soccer, and track & field.

During his tenure, Strickland has overseen a program expansion from 11 to 17 teams of competition, spurred athletic facility

enhancement and forged a reputation of producing winning teams and distinguished student-athletes.

In 2008, Belmont became the first school in Atlantic Sun Conference history to represent the league in three consecutive NCAA

Men's Basketball Championships.Adding conference championships in baseball and men’s basketball in conference campaigns, Belmont

Athletics won a staggering 36 Atlantic Sun Conference Championships in 11 years.

In addition, the school has hosted 11 conference championships over the past seven years, most recently the 2011 A-Sun Cross

Country Championships. Strickland has taken a leadership role in the A-Sun serving as chairman of the tournament committee and

various other leadership capacities.

In addition to the program's success on the field, his tenure has seen the building of the exquisite Curb Event Center.The $52

million facility, which opened in the fall of 2003, has become the centerpiece of the athletics program.The complex houses a new

5,000-seat arena for basketball and volleyball, locker rooms for all sports, a training facility and weight room, as well as administra-

tive offices for the Athletic Department.

Off the field, the athletic department has made academic achievement the cornerstone of its definition of success. Belmont has

won the Atlantic Sun Academic Trophy eight of the past 10 years.The Bruins boasted over 76 percent of their student athletes with

a grade-point average of 3.0 or better on a 4.0 scale during the past academic year. Belmont is the only school to win the trophy five

straight times (2002-2006).Also of significance, Belmont has earned distinction from the NCAA in each of their Academic Progress

Rate (APR) reports, including a program-best seven teams in 2011-12.

Strickland brings varied years of experience to the program, including nine years as athletics director at Murray State University

prior to coming to Belmont.While at Murray State, Strickland served on numerous Ohio Valley Conference committees as well as

serving on the NCAA I-AA football advisory committee and the NCAA rifle committee. Prior to serving at Murray State, Strickland

was an Associate Athletics Director at Wichita State University from 1983-87, where he was responsible for all business operations

for the department.

Strickland earned his bachelor's degree in political science from Georgia Southern University and a master's degree in public

administration from the University of Georgia.

In June of 2009, Strickland received the Under Armour National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA)

Division I Southeast Region A.D. of the Year Award. Strickland was honored at the annual NACDA convention in Orlando, Fla.

Strickland is married to the former Martha Thomas, an English instructor at Nashville State Community College.The couple has

two children: Leanna Elizabeth, a graduate of the University of Tennessee, and Sara Grace, a Belmont University graduate who is mar-

ried to Belmont alumnus Jared Vaughn. Strickland has one grandson, Jacob.
