NISWONGER SPORTS COMPLEX & PIONEER PARK Tusculum College is very fortunate to play in one of the fi nest ball parks in collegiate baseball as they begin their 11th season in the mul� -million dollar Pioneer Park. Tusculum College alumnus and Board of Trustee member Sco� M. Niswonger fully funded the stadium project. Pioneer Park is part of the Niswonger Sports Complex which also includes Pioneer Field (football/so� ball), Red Edmonds So� ball Field and the Indoor Prac� ce Facility. Since 1998, Tusculum has experienced a resurgance in the area of campus facili� es with the renova� on of the football and soccer stadium, the construc� on of Pioneer Arena and the building of TC’s new state-of-the-art indoor prac� ce facility, which opened its doors in 2001. The home of of Tusculum baseball was constructed next to Pioneer Field on the former site of the Red Edmonds So� ball Field, which is now located at the previous loca� on of the baseball facility. Besides serving as the baseball home of the Pioneers, it is also home of the Greeneville Astros, the Appalachian League (Rookie) affi liate of the Houston Astros. The Astros began play in the facility in the summer of 2004 and claimed the Appy League � tle in its inaugural Greeneville season, while breaking league a� endance records. Pioneer Park features chair-back sea� ng for 2,400 spectators and is one of the best NCAA Baseball facili� es in the country. It is a pitcher friendly ballpark with dimensions measuring 331 feet down the lines, 375 feet to the power alleys and 400 feet to center fi eld. The stadium project, designed by Fisher & Associates, included ligh� ng, concession areas, re-strooms and two clubhouses (home and visitor). A “light-frame” steel canopy covers a majoring of

the sea� ng area and provides a covered concourse. The main concourse includes two conces-sion stands, ample space for group dining and gatherings. Pioneer Park also includes four luxury suites and a press box with two radio booths, media area and an opera� ons room. The ball park also has a new state-of-the-art audio system. In 2006, an administra� on building was constructed to house the Greeneville Astros staff . The building includes four � cket booths, a club store and a beau� ful atrium that includes the Greeneville Baseball Museum. Also housed in the building is the offi ces for Tusculum head coach Doug Jones along with a beau� ful conference room with views of the Pioneer Park playing sur-face. The en� re facility is face with brick and limestone, giving the facility a “retro” look to the baseball stadiums built in the 1930’s and 40’s. Pioneer Park also u� lizes individual, slat-back seat-ing similar to that used at Bal� more’s Camden Yards. In 2002, installa� on of the bermuda grass playing surface was done by Valley Crest, one of the renowned athle� c playing fi eld installers in the na� on. Valley Crest’s client list includes: AT&T Park (San Francisco Giants), Turner Field (Atlanta Braves), Vanderbilt University, Stanford Univer-sity and Smokies Park (Tennessee Smokies). The playing surface features a state-of-the art drain-age and irriga� on system. Also included are in-ground dugouts, a warning track, spacious bullpens, indoor ba� ng cages and hi� ng sta� ons. The home clubhouse, one of the largest in collegiate baseball, is located un-

der the grandstand behind the fi rst base dugout. The clubhouse includes locker room space for 52 players, restroom and shower facili� es and an athle� c training and weight training area. There is also a video area along with locker rooms for home coaches and umpires. The visi� ng clubhouse is located next to the home bullpen in right fi eld as well as maintenance and equipment storage.

GENERAL INFORMATION

2 - 2011 Tusculum Baseball 4 SAC Championships • 2005 • 2006 • 2007 • 2009

Doug Jones is entering his 14th season as the head coach at Tusculum College and is the winningest coach in the history of the program. Jones has guided Tusculum to 10 consecu� ve winning seasons, while pos� ng a school record 434 victories in his 13 campaigns in Greeneville. He has directed the program into one of its most successful and exci� ng periods. His last eight teams have posted 30-win campaigns, including four of the last six that have eclipsed the 40-win plateau. The best year during that run was a 50-14 cam-paign in 2007. In its last six seasons, TC is an amazing 241-96-1 (.715), including four South Atlan� c Conference Championships, two SAC Tournament � tles and fi ve trips to the NCAA Division II Tournament. Tusculum’s 50 wins in 2007 are s� ll a school and conference record, including an amazing 23-game winning streak, both TC and SAC bests. TC fi nished the year ranked No. 10 in the NCAA II and was one of only seven programs in the country with 50 victories. For his eff orts, he was named SAC Coach of the Year and has led the Pioneers to fi ve NCAA postseason appearances in the last seven years. The fi ve trips to the NCAA Tournament are � ed for the most by any school in the history of the South Atlan� c Conference. He has mentored 53 All-South Atlan� c Conference honorees at Tusculum, including four SAC Players of the Year (Shane Banks - 2001; Guy O’Connell - 2003; Maikol Gonzalez - 2007; Jared Richmond - 2010) and three SAC Pitchers of the Year (Brent Gabel - 2005; Kevin Hammons - 2007; C.J. Hillyer - 2009). In 2009, Tusculum won its fi rst 13 league contests, en route to pos� ng an 18-4 SAC mark and winning the league crown for the fourth � me in the last fi ve years. The 18 league wins � es a school record for most conference wins in a sea-son. For his eff orts, he was named the SAC Coach of the Year for the second � me in his career. Jones achieved a personal milestone in 2009, recording

his 400th career win. Win No. 400 came against Lenoir-Rhyne University on Apr. 17, 2009 in a 7-0 victory over Bears. In 2008, he led the Pioneers to a 41-15 campaign and earned Tusculum’s fourth NCAA post-season trip by winning the SAC Tournament crown. Seven TC players earned All-SAC recogni� on, including six that later garnered All-South Region accolades, the most of any school in the region. Of that group, Maikol Gonzalez was named the Daktronics South Region Player of the Year for a second straight season. Gonzalez also led the na� on with his school record .468 ba� ng average. The 2007 squad fi nished third in the NCAA South Regional going 2-2, with one of its setbacks coming at the hands of eventual na� onal champion Tampa. TC broke or � ed 45 team and individual records, including seven SAC records. Tusculum was declared the NCAA II Na� onal Sta� s� cal Cham-pion for triples per game, pos� ng a TC and SAC best 41 triples in 2007. Gonzalez was also named a na� onal sta� s� cal champion, leading the country with his 14 triples, two shy of the all-� me NCAA II mark. In 2005, Jones guided the Pioneers to a 44-17 record, while capturing both the South Atlan� c Conference Championship and SAC Tournament � tles. The Pioneers became the fi rst team in league history to lose its opening tournament game and win the next six to claim the SAC Tournament crown. He also led Tusculum to its second NCAA postseason berth in three years. The Pioneers defeated No. 9 Tampa 2-1 in the opening round before falling to eventual na-� onal champion Florida Southern. Tusculum ended the year ranked No. 13 in NCAA Division II, led by SAC Pitcher of the Year and All-American Brent Gabel. In 2006, the Pioneers recorded its second consecu� ve 40-win season, pos� ng a 40-14-1 work-sheet, marking the fi rst � me in school history that a team tallied back-to-back 40-win campaigns. TC also claimed a share of its second straight SAC Championship, tallying a school record 17-4 league mark. Tusculum fi nished second in the league in 2004. TC led the SAC in hi� ng for a second straight year and was also rated the top defensive unit in the league with a school record .964 fi elding per-centage, which was 17th in NCAA Division II. In 2003, Jones led the Pioneers to their fi rst-ever NCAA Tournament appearance. TC’s 34-21 ledger � ed a school record for most victories in a season at the � me. That team rallied from a 1-5 start in the SAC to win 10 of its last 13 league games to � e for fourth place. Jones’ club advanced to the championship game of the SAC Tournament for the fi rst � me ever, winning four straight games out of the elimina� on bracket including three 9-inning games in one day. That squad established 46 individual and team records, including a .342 team ba� ng average establishing a new school and conference single-season record. He led the Pioneers to a 29-24 record in 2002 for the team’s second straight 29-win season. In 2001, TC’s 29-24 mark was a nine-win improvement from a season before. The 2002 club fi nished � ed for fourth place in the conference and advanced to the SAC Tour-

nament semifi nal for a second consecu� ve season. For a second straight year, TC was the best defensive team in the conference and 12th in NCAA Division II. TC’s 1.04 double plays per game average was fourth in the na� on. The 2001 squad set several school records and made quite a turnaround defensively. In 2000, TC was the worst fi elding squad in the conference. But one year later, the Pioneers emerged as the top defensive team in the league and 14th in the country. In his fi rst season in Greeneville, Jones led the Pioneers to a 29-17 record and captured the Southeast Sub-Region Championship in Tusculum’s fi nal year of dual membership in the NCAA and NAIA. Jones recorded his fi rst victory as a collegiate head coach on Feb. 7, 1998 when the Pio-neers defeated Pfeiff er University, 7-5. He would have to wait fi ve seasons to break the century mark as Jones tallied his 100th victory on Feb. 15, 2002 in a 5-3 road win at North Greenville. On Apr. 3, 2004, Jones posted his 185th victory, making him the winningest coach in school history, surpassing the previous best of 184, set by former TC skipper Tom Griffi n (1990-97). Three years and two days a� er his 100th win, Jones posted No. 200 in a 13-3 victory at Pfeiff er on Feb. 17, 2005. He wouldn’t have to wait long for his next milestone as No. 300 came at Carson-Newman in a 5-4 extra inning victory. Jones has mentored eight All-Americans, 17 All-Region honorees and 53 All-SAC players, four SAC Players of the Year, two SAC Freshmen of the Year (Brian Love� in 2003 and Mat Galens in 2004) and three SAC Pitchers of the Year. O’Connell was also named SAC Male Athlete of the Year in 2002-03, earned ABCA First Team All-American honors and was the NCAA II South Region Player of the Year. Thirty-eight(38) Pioneers have also garnered SAC All-Tournament dis� nc� on during his watch, including Tournament MVP’s Adam Beacham (2005) and Gonzalez (2008). Since 2004, 19 Pioneers have or are s� ll playing professionally. All-Region shortstop Rob-bie Bouman signed with the Tampa Bay Rays in 2004. In 2005, All-SAC pitcher Eric Butler signed with the Arizona Diamondbacks. In 2006, four Tusculum players signed professional contracts, in-cluding pitcher Brandon Dickson (St. Louis Cardinals), catcher Adam Beacham (Kansas City Royals), All-American pitcher Brent Gabel (Washington Wild Things) and Bobby Darling (Rockford River-Hawks). Two members of the 2007 club signed professional contracts, including Kevin Hammons, who was dra� ed in the 24th round by the Florida Marlins, while Ben Swaggerty signed as a free agent with the Kansas City Royals.

PHILOSOPHY OF HEAD COACH DOUG JONES & THE TUSCULUM COLLEGE BASEBALL PROGRAM

“The philosophy of our program is very important to me and it requires a commitment from all of our players and coaches. I want all of our players to understand what I am about, and I want them to understand what the priori� es will be in our pro-gram. For me and my family GOD will always be fi rst in our lives. I want our players to know that they are playing for a Chris� an coach and we will provide opportuni� es for them to grow spiri-tually.

The two main goals that we have in our program are: (1) Every player who comes in will graduate and (2) we will try to compete for championships every year. Our players will understand that they are student’s fi rst and baseball players second. We as a staff will monitor on a weekly basis the academic progress of our players. We have been fortunate enough to have had several players get an the opportunity to move on to pro ball and live out their childhood dreams. But we all know that they won’t play the game forever; their college degree is what will give them the opportunity to be successful for the rest of their lives.

I am proud of what our student-athletes have, and con� nue to accomplish in the classroom. Each year our team GPA ranks at the top of the South Atlan� c Conference, and several of our play-ers are listed on the South Atlan� c Conference Commissioner’s Honor Roll.

The slogan that we live by in our program simply states, “IT’S NOT ABOUT ME”. We want players in our program that are un-selfi sh and that are willing to do whatever it takes to help us win. This slogan is not just words; we live this every day in everything we do. We are a family and I want our players to build the type of memories and rela� onships that will last forever. Our players will be pushed to be the very best they can be, both on and off the fi eld. We will treat them with respect and we will require them to represent their family, our ins� tu� on and our program in a fi rst class manner at all � mes.”

TUSCULUM HISTORY Tusculum College is the oldest college in Tennessee and the 28th oldest in the na� on. In addi� on, Tusculum is the oldest coeduca� onal ins� tu� on affi liated with the Presbyte-rian Church (U.S.A.) and an early na� onal pioneer in the admission of women. Tusculum accepted women students early in its history, and it is notable that by the turn of the 20th century more than half of its students were women. The roots of Tusculum College are buried deep in early American fron� er history. In 1794, George Washington was president of a young country and the state of Tennessee was s� ll two years away from becoming a reality. In what is now East Tennes-see, Hezekiah Balch and Samuel Doak, Presbyterian ministers educated at the College of New Jersey (now Princeton University), were ministering to the pioneers of what was the southwestern fron� er of the United States. They also desired to meet the educa� onal needs of these Scots-lrish se� lers. Doak and Balch were visionaries ul� mately seeking the same goals through the rival colleges they established. Tusculum College as it now exists descends from two schools. The fi rst, Greeneville College, was chartered in September 1794 by the General Assembly of the Territory of the United States South of the Ohio River, and established by Hezekiah Balch. Samuel Doak and his son Samuel Witherspoon Doak founded the second as Tusculum Academy in 1818. Tusculum Academy operated in a log cabin adjacent to the present site of Tusculum College. When the academy became Tusculum College in 1844, Andrew Johnson, who was to become 17th President of the United States, was one of its trustees. A merger in 1868 formed Greeneville and Tusculum College. In 1908, Greeneville and Tusculum College merged with Washington College, crea� ng Washington and Tusculum College. This union dissolved in 1912, and thus evolved modern-day Tusculum College. The College received formal accredita� on by the Southern Associa� on of Colleges and Schools 15 years later. The College takes its name from the ancient Roman town where the great statesman and educator Cicero had an academy at his villa. Cicero taught what are now called the liberal arts. They actually were cons� tuted by the prac� ces a ci� zen must develop to par� cipate eff ec� vely in leading his or her community - to play a vital role in civic aff airs.

TUSCULUM ACADEMICS As a Civic Arts ins� tu� on, Tusculum College prepares students to be eff ec� ve ci� zens, recognizing that they will need prac� cal wisdom to par� cipate in communi� es and enrich life� me experiences. Tusculum’s academic calendar is diff erent from all but three other colleges in the country. The academic year is divided into two semesters and our students take four 3 1/2 week courses each semester, totaling eight courses for the year. Classes are taught one at a � me, with a four-day break in between. Three 3 1/2 week summer sessions are also off ered. This allows our students to complete course requirements for the baccalaureate degree in four calendar years. Our unique Civic Arts program is being used as a model for other colleges and universi� es that seek to promote community, responsibility, and civic development. The Carnegie Founda� on for the Advancement of Teaching has recognized Tusculum as one of about a dozen schools (including Duke University and the University of Notre Dame) with a strong commitment to those ideals. As part of our emphasis on service-learning, we ask students to assess the needs of the community and complete a project to address those needs. Beyond helping key popula� ons, Tusculum students gain valuable experience in solving problems, apprecia� ng diff erences, and working with others.

Tusculum College is a learning community where students and faculty members spend concentrated blocks of � me together exploring important areas of knowledge, developing and refi ning thinking and communica� on skills, wrestling with the � meless controversial issues that characterize the human condi� on, and applying themselves to the prac� cal solu� on of problems. Whether in the tradi� onal on-campus Bachelor of Arts programs or in the evening Bachelor of Science and Master of Arts programs for working adult-students, Tusculum College’s dis� nc� ve academic calendar lets students concentrate on learning one subject at a � me. It’s a tradi� on grounded in the belief that we best realize the poten� al of each individual when faculty members and students work closely together with the ul� mate aim of enriching the lives of our students and preparing them to contribute posi� vely to their communi� es. For many tradi� onal students, an ini� al reason for choosing Tusculum is our focused calendar, which allows students to take one course at a � me. For others, its our dis� nc� ve programs of study, from specialized areas such as Ath-le� c Training, Business Administra� on, and Museum Studies to strong arts and sciences areas such as Biology, English, and Psychology. Tusculum is well known throughout East Tennessee for the eff ec� veness of its Teacher Educa� on programs. Students are well prepared for careers in early childhood and el-ementary educa� on, in several secondary educa� on subject areas, in K-12 programs in Physical Educa� on and Visual Arts, and in Special Educa� on. But what o� en seals pro-spec� ve students’ decisions to join Tusculum’s community is the people.Tusculum a� racts topfl ight professors for the same reason that we a� ract students: small

classes with close interac� on between professors and students, the focused calendar which allows concentrated study, and a Civic Arts curriculum that emphasizes community. Our professors are mo� vated and mo� va� ng. Excited and exci� ng. Whatever the major, you’ll fi nd that Tusculum’s academics are innova� ve, and that our faculty is commi� ed to the success of our students.

THE TUSCULUM CAMPUS Located in Greeneville, Tenn., Tusculum College lies in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains between Knoxville and the Tri-Ci� es (Bristol-Johnson City-King-sport). Our wooded 190-acre campus has over 25 buildings, nine of which are listed on the Na� onal Register of Historic Places. The Albert Columbus Tate Library, one of our Na� onal Historic Sites, was built in 1910. The library is experiencing a major mul� -million dollar renova� on and expansion that will more than double the size of the current library facility, bringing our library space to 34,467 square feet. The Tate Library previously encompassed 12,000 square feet, and is incorporated into the expanded and renovated building. We also have two on-campus museums, one holding archives with materials da� ng to the College’s beginnings. The Andrew Johnson Presiden� al Museum and Library includes the Charles Coffi n Collec� on containing materials from the Collegeís original library, the Andrew Johnson Library containing books, papers, and memo-rabilia from the 17th President of the United States, and the College Archives containing documents related to the history of Tusculum since its founding. Tusculum’s loca� on is convenient to shopping and entertainment, and our students enjoy access to such recrea� onal opportuni� es as backpacking, hiking, whitewa-ter ra� ing, fi shing and snow skiing. The city of Greeneville and Greene County have a combined popula� on of 65,000. Knoxville and the Tri-Ci� es are within a 70-mile radius of the campus.
