AQUINAS FIELD

The Aquinas Softball Field has been the home of Belmont softball since the fall of 2001.

Located on the Aquinas College campus just minutes from Belmont University, the field -

which was once the home to the Aquinas baseball team - was converted to a softball field in

2001.

The complex features covered dugouts, hitting cages, an enclosed press box, concession stand,

and storage facilities. It is used by the team for practices and games and gives the softball team

a real home field advantage with its quaint, intimate charm.

SEASON PREVIEW

2010 PREVIEW

In 2010, first year head coach inherits

a team with plenty of experience.

Seven of the team’s nine starters return

to a roster that includes four seniors.

This experience will benefit the Bruins

as they pursue the next stepping stone

for the young program: an Atlantic Sun

Tournament bid.

“I really believe in this team,” stated

Coach Kuhlmeyer. “There is an atti-

tude and an excitement surrounding

this team that has been missing. They

have worked hard, bought into what we

are trying to do, and are having fun.”

THE SCHEDULEThe Bruins’ experience will be put to the test early as they will travel to

four tournaments after playing one home series against Austin Peay to

open the season. Their 2010 schedule features nine teams that finished in

the top 100 in last season’s NCAA Rating Percentage Index (RPI). One

of those teams, Georgia, comes in with a preseason ranking of #7 in the

nation.

“Our team is excited about the competition we are facing this season,”

says Coach Kuhlmeyer about the season’s opponents. “As an athlete and

a competitor, you want to face these kinds of teams to see what you are

made of.”

After playing a doubleheader at home against Austin Peay on Feb. 13, the

Bruins will travel to Mobile, Ala. to compete in the South Alabama Invi-

tational, hosted by South Alabama, on Feb. 20 and 21. A doubleheader in

Memphis lies in between the South Alabama Invitational and the Bruins’

next tournament, the Southern Mississippi Tournament. The tournament,

held in Hattiesburg, Miss. and hosted by Southern Mississippi, kicks off

against Jackson State on Feb. 27 and ends on Feb. 28.

A home doubleheader against Alabama A&M lies in between the Southern

Mississippi Tournament and the Bruins’ next two tournaments, the Geor-

gia Softball Classic and the Murray State Tournament. The Georgia Soft-

ball Classic opens on March 5 against host Georgia and ends on March 7.

The Murray State Tournament opens on March 13 against host Murray

State and will end on March 14.

After wrapping up the non-conference tournament season, the next 22 of

Belmont’s 34 remaining games will be held in the state of Tennessee. Bel-

mont will end their season hosting the Lipscomb Bisons for the softball

version of the Battle of Boulevard before traveling to Buies Creek, N.C.

to battle defending A-Sun Champion Campbell. The Atlantic Sun Tour-

nament will begin on May 6 in DeLand, Fla.

ATLANTIC SUN PREVIEWLipscomb and 2009 Tournament Champion Campbell finished first and

second, respectively, in the Atlantic Sun’s Preseason Coaches’ Poll. Lip-

scomb’s Senior Kellie Sirus was tabbed as the Preseason Player of the

Year, and Campbell’s Senior, Brittany Stanley, was tabbed as the Presea-

son Pitcher of the Year.

Lipscomb, with two Preseason All-Conference Team selections, were also

picked to win the Atlantic Sun Tournament.

Belmont was picked to finish 11th in the conference, and did not have a

player selected onto the Preseason All-Conference Team.

“It’s not unexpected. The program has been down in the past, and it’s

something that we’re going to have to go out and prove to the league that

we’re not the team of the past anymore,” said Coach Kuhlmeyer. “We’re

a team that can compete with anybody, and can compete for the confer-

ence championship. If we can maintain our health, the conference is going

to get a little bit of a rude awakening.”

PITCHERSAshley Byers, Sophomore – 6-0

Julie Harmon, Junior – 5-7

Devon Schmidt, Freshman – 5-6

The Bruins enter the 2010 season with a lot of youth at the pitching posi-

tion. After losing Senior Sammi Parks, redshirt freshman Devon Schmidt

will look to fill her shoes as the Bruins’ ace. Sophomore Ashley Byers

gained valuable experience as a freshman that will serve her well in the

upcoming season. Junior Julie Harmon will once again bolster the relief

duties. These pitchers provide the Bruins’ a promising combination that

will be poised to carry Belmont deep into the season.

Schmidt’s began her Belmont career in a very convincing manner as she

posted a 2.8 ERA with 3 complete games and 46 strikeouts in only 50 in-

nings. Her season was derailed by an injury, but is now poised for a resur-

gent season.

“Devon is a very good pitcher. She has such a will to win, and combined

with her ability to throw every pitch with great movement and spot it, her

impact will be tremendous,” said Coach Kuhlmeyer.

Sophomore Ashley Byers will look to have a breakout season after gaining

invaluable pitching experience as a freshman. Byers saw action in 16

games with 18 strikeouts last season.

Kuhlmeyer said about Ashley, “She brings a little bit of a different ele-

ment. She throws hard and has incredible movement. She’s a presence

at the plate, and we’re expecting a lot of good things from her on the

mound this season.”

Harmon racked up the second most innings of any pitcher on the Bruins’

squad last season. Making appearances in 22 games, Harmon recorded

27 strikeouts with one win.

“Schmidt, Byers, and Harmon gives us three legitimate pitchers,” said

Coach Kuhlmeyer. “We are very fortunate, because a lot of schools don’t

have that.” (Continued on page 6)

INFIELDERSSara Bentley, Senior – 5-8

Cassie Bollin, Sophomore – 5-4

Courtney Elrod, Freshman – 5-4

Hannah Irwin, Sophomore – 5-4

Ashley Smith, Junior – 5-6

Dawn Thoni, Senior – 5-6

Erin Gier, Senior – 5-7

This year’s infielder group will be anchored by re-

turning starters Dawn Thoni, Sara Bentley, and

Cassie Bollin. As a Junior, Thoni started 43 games

and was the team’s most consistent batter with an

average of .294. Bentley has been a stalwart in the

Bruins’ lineup over the years. Her 70 assists were

tops for the Bruins last season. Bollin will add ex-

perience to the squad as she started 45 games last

season.

Senior Erin Gier has a plethora of experience in

the infield as well as in the outfield, and will see

her infield role increased this season.

Newcomers Ashley Smith and Courtney Elrod will

also look to have an immediate contribution.

Smith comes to the Bruins after leading Wallace

State Community College to a NJCAA National

Championship and NJCAA National Champi-

onship Runner-Up in 2008 and 2009. Elrod comes

to Belmont after a storied high school career in

which she holds school records for homeruns, sin-

gles, doubles, RBIs, and batting average.

“From a defensive stand point, we have the poten-

tial to be a very solid infield,” stated Coach

Kuhlmeyer. “They work well together, and they

are very sound fundamentally.”

OUTFIELDERSBrooke Babington, Senior – 5-5

Amanda Buntin, Sophomore – 5-10

Kelley Cash, Junior – 5-4

Julie Harmon, Junior – 5-7

Belmont’s outfield begins the 2010 campaign as

one of the most experienced units for the Bruins.

Each of the team’s five outfielders combined to

start 134 games last season. Senior Brooke

Babington, Juniors Julie Harmon and Kelley Cash,

and Sophomore Amanda Buntin will all compete

for starting positions this season. Kelly Cash and

Brooke Babington led the group in fielding per-

centage last season with a .959 and .962 percent-

age, respectively. Harmon was a leader at the plate

for the Bruins last season leading the team with 20

RBI. After having seen action in 36 games as a

freshman, Buntin is an up and coming star in the

outfield.

“We can change the outfield depending on match

ups. We are a good defensive outfield, and I’m

comfortable with several different rotations out

there. Kelly Cash is stepping up as a leader in cen-

ter field, and we have several good arms in the out-

field,” Coach Kuhlmeyer said about his outfield.

CATCHERSHannah Irwin, Sophomore – 5-4

Stayci Cook, Sophomore – 5-9

The Bruins will benefit from having two catchers

that were both acclimated to the collegiate game

last season. Sophomore Stayci Cook was tied with

the team’s best fielding percentage of 1.000. Her

sophomore counterpart, Hannah Irwin, was not far

behind with a .987. Each performed well at the

plate as well, with a combined RBI total of 11.

“Hannah is a very heady catcher. She’s a natural

leader on the field, and she knows the game very

well,” said Coach Kuhlmeyer. “Stayci possesses

a very good arm, which will help us tremendously

when she’s in there. I feel comfortable with both

of our catchers, and the matchup will determine

who we go with on game day. ”

Chris KuhlmeyerHead Coach

Louisiana State, 1999

First Season at BelmontChris Kuhlmeyer was named the head coach of Belmont Softball on July 10, 2009. Seasoned with experi-

ence from several of the nation’s top programs, Kuhlmeyer ushers in a new era for the program.

Kuhlmeyer spent the past three seasons as the top assistant coach at Wichita State University. Over that

stretch, the Shockers won 91 games, including four against nationally ranked opponents (Illinois State,

Southern Illinois, Texas, Washington), in the highly competitive Missouri Valley Conference.

Kuhlmeyer made an astounding impact in recruiting and player development at Wichita State. In 2007

Kuhlmeyer helped transform then freshman Kara L’Huillier from an infielder into one of the top fielding

catchers in the Missouri Valley and the NCAA. L’Huillier, who had no previous experience behind the

plate, made only one error in conference play and threw out 10 runners attempting to steal base.

“We are excited to have Chris join our staff,” Strickland said. “We feel his background and experience give

him all the tools he needs to be a success at Belmont. We are confident he will take our softball program to

new heights.”

Prior to joining the staff at Wichita State, Kuhlmeyer spent four seasons as an assistant coach at Samford

University. While in Birmingham, Kuhlmeyer served as the recruiting coordinator, first base coach, and as

the primary hitting and catching instructor for the Bulldogs. During his stead, Samford registered its most

successful stretch in school history, winning 27 or more games in three of his four campaigns. The Bulldogs

were among the NCAA leaders in stolen bases per game in 2006.

Previously, Kuhlmeyer served two seasons as a volunteer assistant coach at Baylor University. At Baylor,

he shaped his coaching instruction of catchers and infielders, as well as overseeing the program’s booster

club and field maintenance.

The 32-year-old Anacoco, La. Native also spent the summer of 2000 as head coach of the Louisiana Lady

Hawks of the Amateur Softball Association (ASA) 16-and-under league. He led the Lady Hawks to three

tournament titles and top three finishes at both ASA and National Softball Association (NSA) state tourna-

ments.

Kuhlmeyer began his coaching career at his alma mater, Louisiana State University. He spent the 2000 sea-

son as a volunteer assistant coach for the Bayou Bengals and three seasons as a student manager while earn-

ing his bachelor’s degree in education with a concentration in sport studies.

Kuhlmeyer is a member of the National Fastpitch Coaches Association and has served on the association’s

Internet Committee. He is married to the former Shelley Dykes of Baton Rouge, La. The couple has one

daughter, Addison.

JENIFER KERNAHAN

Assistant Coach

Bowling Green, 2005

Third Season at Belmont

Jenifer Kernahan enters her third year as

assistant coach with the Belmont softball

program in 2010. Her main responsibilities

include working with the outfielders and

catchers as well as assisting with recruiting,

field maintenance and travel plans for the

Bruins.

“Having Coach Kernahan has been great,”

said Coach Kuhlmeyer. “Not only is she

young, enthusiastic, and knowledgeable,

but she knows Belmont. Her role has been

expanded this season. She’s taken the op-

portunity and ran with it.”

Kernahan came to Belmont after serving as

the graduate assistant for the softball pro-

gram at Heidelberg College. During her

tenure with the program, she served as the

team's academic coordinator as well as

helped with recruiting, fundraising, and

field maintenance.

A 2005 graduate of Bowling Green State

ASHLEY TAYLOR

Volunteer Assistant Coach

Austin Peay, 2008

First Season at Belmont

2010 will be Ashley Taylor’s first season

with the Bruins as a Volunteer Assistant

Coach. Her main responsibility will come

as a hitting coach for the Bruins.

“[Ashley Taylor] was a great pick up that is

going to pay major dividends for us. She re-

lates well to our student-athletes. She is a

very knowledgeable hitting coach, she

knows the game well, and she will have a

great career in coaching if that is what she

decides to do,” stated Coach Kuhlmeyer

about Ashley.

Taylor came to Belmont after a very success-

ful career at Austin Peay where she was a

three year starter for the Lady Governors.

Taylor made her mark on the Austin Peay

record books in her three years there as she

set the all-time school record for at bats

(184), tied the all-time record for starts in a

season (58), set the all-time freshmen

records for runs scored (35) and homeruns

(10).

Taylor was able to graduate from Austin

Peay in three years while playing softball

and maintaining a 3.5 GPA.

“FROM HERE TO ANYWHERE”

BELMONT UNIVERSITY

HISTORY AND HONORS

In the mid-1800s, the campus was known as Adelicia Acklen’s Belle Monte

estate. The antebellum mansion remains today, flanked by university build-

ings separated in age by a century. The first educational institution on the

estate was teh original Belmont College (1890-1913), offering elementary

school through junior college education to young ladies. The school

merged with Ward Seminary to become the prestigious Ward-Belmont

School for Women (1913-1951) and in 1951 became the coed Belmont Col-

lege. In 1991, the college became Belmont University and, this year,

began the 115th year of higher education on this site.

Belmont continually reflects its rich heritage as it excels in the academic

area. Last year, U.S. News & World Report named Belmont University in

the top 15 of the best colleges and universities in the South in the maga-

zine’s “master’s” category.

VISION

Belmont’s vision is to be a premier teaching university bringing together

the best of liberal arts and professional education in a Chris-

tian community of learning and service.

Belmont strives to enable men and women from diverse

backgrounds to engage and transform the world with disci-

plined intelligence, compassion, courage and faith.

Believing that every student is created for a purpose in life,

Belmont encourages students to explore their passions and

develop their talents to meet the world’s needs.

ACADEMICS AND MORE

Belmont’s boundaries continue to extend beyond the

Nashville campus through its Cool Springs campus south of

Nashville 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. Bel-

mont also serves as a regional center of the East-West Center

for the Development of Asian Studies.

Vital to the Belmont student experience are service learning,

volunteerism and mission projects that invest in surrounding

communities. Through the efforts of students and faculty,

Belmont has touched lives in Nashville’s charitable organiza-

tions, its growing Hispanic community, area tutoring pro-

grams, neighboring businesses and mentoring programs, as

well as inner-city and overseas mission projects, including

trips to the Appalachian Mountains and the Ukraine.

Among its student body of just over 5,000, are students from

every state and more than 29 countries. In addition to seven

baccalaureate degrees in over 75 areas of study, Belmont of-

fers master’s degrees in Business Administration, Accountancy, English,

Education (including Sport Administration), Music, Nursing, and Occupa-

tional Therapy, and doctorates in Occupational Therapy and Physical Ther-

apy.

Under the leadership of President Robert Fisher, Belmont celebrates more

than a century of academic heritage. Perhaps most notably, Belmont stood

out in the latest annual rankings of America’s best colleges and universities

in U.S. News & World Report, labeled as “Best Colleges 2009 - Up-and-

coming Masters Universities (South)” and a most cited “School to Watch.”

BU is now ranked 11th in the South in the “Best Universities - Masters”

category. Also noteworthy, Belmont has earned the Atlantic Sun Academic

Champion Trophy seven of the last eight years - with over two-thirds of its

student-athletes with a GPA of 3.0 or higher in 2007-08.

Moreover, Belmont has opened several impressive new facilities on campus

which have enhanced the learning environment: the Massey Performing

Arts Center, the Curb Event Center, and the newly-unveiled Gordon E.

Inman Center. Then came word Belmont would host the 2008 Presidential

Town Hall Debate, further exposing the school to a global audience.

In short, Belmont has experienced remarkable growth and achievement -

increases in average ACT scores, innovative program development, impres-

sive campus expansion, land and facility development and establishing it-

self as a national leader in quality improvement.

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 risen by nearly 70 percent while the campus it-

self 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 and several new residence halls and

parking garages. In addition, he worked to secure Belmont as the host site for teh 2008 Town Hall Presi-

dential Debate, a historic event broadcast worldwide that also led to Fisher’s selection as 2008 Ten-

nessean of the Year.

But Dr. Fisher’s greatest sense of accomplishment comes not from new campus structures, stronger en-

dowments or a larger student body. Rather, he measures achievement through witnessing education’s

impact on each individual 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 ex-

periences that tranform 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, and M.B.A. from the Univer-

sity 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, re-

leased 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 WorldClass Team Leaders to Achieve Extraordi-nary 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 numerous articles on management and leadership and has consulted with a wide

variety of organizations on human resource and strategic planning issues, including Kimberly-Clark Cor-

poration, 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 on the Board of Directors for the Greater Nashville Area

Chamber of Commerce, United Way of Metropolitan Nashville, the Country Music Foundation, the Boy

Scouts of Middle Tennessee, the Nashville Symphony, the PENCIL Foundation, the YMCA of Middle

Tennessee, the Nashville Alliance for Public Education, TICUA, Cumberland Region Tomorrow, Fifth

Third Bank and the NCAA Division I Board of Directors and Executive Committee. 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 Arkansas Enterprise

Group, a division of Southern Development Bank.

Married for 38 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 and four perfect grandsons.

DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS

Michael StricklandDirector of Athletics

14th Year at Belmont

Now entering his 14th 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, joined the Atlantic Sun 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 and the Whitten Soccer Complex, as well

the most recent partnership with Metro Parks for athletic fields at Rose Park. This exciting new venture

will house Belmont baseball, softball, soccer, and track & field. Two of the most important achieve-

ments of his tenure at Belmont are the acceptance of Belmont into the Atlantic Sun Conference and the

opening of the Curb Event Center. During his tenure, Strickland has overseen a program expansion from

11 to 17 teams of competition, spearheaded membership into the Atlantic Sun Conference, spurred ath-

letic facility enhancement and forged a reputation of producing winning teams and distinguished stu-

dent-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

women’s cross country, women’s soccer and volleyball during the past academic year, Belmont Athletics

has won a staggering 26 Atlantic Sun Conference Championships since becoming a member institution

in 2001-02 - far and away the league standard. In addition, the school has hosted nine conference cham-

pionships over the past five years, most recently the 2006 A-Sun Volleyball Championship. Strickland

has taken a leadership role in the A-Sun serving as chairman of the tournament committee and presently

serves as a member of the conference’s membership committee. 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 facil-

ity and weight room, as well as administrative 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 seven of the past eight years. The Bruins

boasted over two-thirds 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. 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 mas-

ter's degree in public administration from the University of Georgia. In June of 2009, Strickland re-

ceived 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, an undergraduate student at the University of

Tennessee, and Sara Grace, a Belmont University graduate who is married to Jared Vaughn. In 2008,

Mike and Martha celebrated two milestone events: their 35th wedding anniversary and the arrival of

their first grandson, Jacob. In his leisure time, Mike enjoys travel, history, and spending time with his

family.

ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF

For five decades, Betty Wiseman has been an active figure at Belmont University. As a student, coach,

and professor, Wiseman has been a great ambassador for the University and the Department of Athletics.

As Assistant Athletic Director/Senior Woman Administrator, Wiseman advises the athletic department on

the status of women's sports and conducts administrative tasks in relation to all sports. She serves as liaison be-

tween Athletics and Student Affairs, coordinates counseling, discipline, and all random drug-testing for ath-

letes, and serves as advisor to Belmont’s Student-Athletes Advisory Committee. In addition, she works with

teams as they participate in service opportunities throughout the year, including organizing and leading a

yearly foreign mission trip with athletes to do Sports Evangelism overseas. Countries served through these

trips include Poland, Portugal, Costa Rica, Brazil, Venezuela, and Ukraine. In May 2009, she led a team to

Cape Town, South Africa.

Wiseman also serves on many committees and boards. In 2008 she completed a four-year term as one of

the Atlantic Sun Conference’s representatives on the NCAA Management Council. The Management Council

serves as the main legislative body for Division I sports. She has been a member of many Atlantic Sun Con-

ference committees.

After graduating from Belmont in 1965, the Portland, Tennessee native was named as Associate Professor

of Health and Physical Education in 1966 and began a teaching career of 40 years. She was named Professor

Emeritus in the Department of Health and Human Performance in 2006 where she served as Chair for six

years. In 1968 the former high school basketball standout began a new career as a women’s sports trailblazer

when she founded the women’s basketball program at Belmont, one of the first programs, not only in the state,

but in the southeast. Wiseman was the head women's basketball coach at Belmont for 16 seasons, compiling a

248-152 record. She led Belmont to four consecutive berths in the National Women's Invitational Tournament

from 1973-1977. In those tournaments, her teams knocked off such programs as Alabama, Nebraska, and

North Carolina. She was inducted into the Belmont Athletics Hall of Fame in 1981.

Wiseman has been honored by several organizations for her contributions to collegiate athletics. In 1999

she was given the Josten-Berenson Service Award by the Women's Basketball Coaches Association during the

NCAA Women’s Final Four in San Jose, California to recognize her lifelong commitment to women's basket-

ball. In 2003 Belmont honored her by naming part of the university’s new athletic facility the Striplin-Wise-

man Athletic Office Complex. Finally, in 2004, Wiseman was inducted into the Tennessee Sports Hall of Fame

for her contributions to promoting women’s basketball in the state. She is the first Belmont coach or athlete to

be so honored. In July 2007 she was featured in an article on the front page of The Tennessean, as a Tennessee

Sports Legend.

She is a member of Brentwood Baptist Church where she serves as Trustee, is a member of the adult choir,

serves as a substitute teacher in Sunday School, and is an active missions volunteer.
