In 2012 Emporia State University will cel-ebrate its 75th anniversary in Francis G. Welch Stadium. The stadium is named in honor of ESU's long-time coach and ath-letic director. Welch guided the efforts of the Hornet football program from 1928-42, and then again from 1946-54. In those two spans, Welch won 115 games and is the all-time winningest coach in ESU football history. The Super Turf playing surface is named for the W.S. and E.C. Jones Trust that provided the lead gift for the artificial surface. Opened in 1937 and dedicated in 1960, the stadium sits just north of beautiful Lake Wooster and has seated as many as 10,000 fans when bleachers were added in each end zone. Permanent lighting makes it pos-sible to televise games and play at night. The facility also has been used exten-sively by individuals outside the University community. Welch Stadium is the home field of the Emporia High School football team and has hosted the Hershey Track and Field State Championships, Special Olympics, the 1998, 2004 and 2008 Kansas Shrine Bowl and will host the game again in 2012. . In 1992, the “GOING THE DISTANCE CAMPAIGN” was initiated. With its comple-tion, track and field events once again were held at ESU. The NCAA Division II National Track and Field Outdoor Championships were held on the Zola Witten Track within Welch Stadium in 1995, 1999 adn 2006. In 1994, as part of the campaign’s second phase, the east and west side concession areas, restroom facilities, and entrances were renovated. A new scoreboard was hoisted into place at the south end of the stadium and a new landscaped fence was erected. In 1997, the final phase was completed in time for the University’s 100th season of intercollegiate football. The Hutchinson Family Pavilion is a three-tiered facility which has enclosed theatre seating on the first floor, a president’s box and four sky-boxes on the second floor, and a game-day management and media center on the third floor.

The facility was one of the first on the NCAA Division II level to offer enclosed sky-boxes and is still one of only a few across the nation. The latest upgrades to the historic facility came prior to the 2006 season with the addi-tion of the Super Turf playing surface and upgrade of the stadium’s sound system. The first game at Welch Stadium came on Armistice Day, 1937. The Hornets tied St. Benedict's College, 20-20. More than 6,000 fans saw the first game in the facility. The Hornets gained a tie for the Central Intercollegiate Conference title by beating Pittsburg State, 7-0, on Homecoming 1951. Quarterback Bob Sherrer won the game with a 69-yard TD run. The Hornets defeated Washburn on Homecoming 1972, 41-7. With the win, the Hornets won the Great Plains Athletic Conference and earned a berth in the Boot Hill Bowl Game. In 1973, a record crowd of 10,000 saw the Hornets defeat Northern Colorado, 10-0, as the Hornets vaulted to a No. 3 ranking in the NAIA. ESU tied UNC for the Great Plains Athletic Conference championship in 1973. The Hornets defeated Harding, 32-9, as ESU advanced to the NAIA semifinals in 1989. After winning on the road the following week at Adams State, ESU played for the national title against Carson-Newman. The Hornets won their first ever Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association game when they defeated Missouri Western, 23-22, before a crowd of more than 5,800 on September 21, 1991. The Hornets defeated Washburn, 64-35, in front of a regional television audience, on October 30, 1997. Brian Shay became the school’s all-time leading rusher and finished the game with an MIAA-record 469 all-purpose yards. On September 19, 1998 the Hornets defeated Pittsburg State, 38-28, in front of 9,200 fans - the second largest crowd in Welch Stadium history.

Emporia State again defeated Pittsburg State on October 12, 2002 this time by a score of 13-3 on the way to the Hornets first postseason appearance since 1989. The Hornets went 4-1 on the Jones Field at Welch Stadium turf in 2010, their best home record since 2002. ESU then made it two straight season’s at .500 or better going 3-3 in 2011. The addition of Jones Field at Welch Stadium to the Hutchinson Family Pavilion ESU has maintained its position as one of the finest football facilities at the NCAA Division II level in the nation.

Former Hornet Garin Higgins is entering his sixth season at his alma mater after posting back to back five win seasons at ESU for the first time in nearly a decade. He has a 70-45 record as a head coach after going 19-36 in his first five seasons at ESU.

The 1992 ESU graduate led his alma mater to a three game improvement in the win column from 2009 to 2010 and has established a solid home field advantage for the Hornets. ESU has won at least four games on the turf of Jones Field at Welch Stadium in three of the last four seasons.

Under Higgins the Hornets employed a high powered offense that ranked 23rd in the nation last year in total offense and opportunistic defense that led the nation in interceptions during the regular season and was ranked second nationally in turnover margin

Higgins compiled a 51-9 record (.857) as the head coach at Northwestern Oklahoma State University before becoming the co-offensive coordinator at NCAA Division II member Minnesota State in 2005. Prior to returning to ESU he was the offensive coordinator at Northeastern State University in the 2006 season.

While at NWOSU, the Rangers qualified for the NAIA playoffs five consecutive seasons, had three national title game appearances and he was named the Central State Football League Coach of the Year five straight years from 2000 through 2004. Higgins’s offense rolled up over 42 points per game from 1999-2003 and his rushing offense led the nation in 1999 and 2000. The Rangers won 31 consecutive games from Oct. 1998 through December 2000 and were 15-3 against NCAA Division II schools under Higgins. His .857 winning percentage is the highest in NWOSU history.

Higgins has coached three players that have gone on to play in the NFL - Lynn Scott with the Dallas Cowboys, Sam Breeden with the Green Bay Packers and current San Diego Charger Patrick Crayton. Former Hornet Harold Ayodele was with the Kansas City Chiefs in training camp last year.

“Emporia State can and will compete for conference championships in football,” said Higgins. “And the MIAA is hands down the best conference in the nation.”

A native of Blackwell, Okla. where he was an all-state quarterback, Higgins earned his undergraduate degree at Emporia State in 1992. He was a four-year letterman for the Hornets and helped lead the team to a national runner-up finish in 1989. He has been involved with four teams that have played for or won national championships as a player, coordinator or head coach.

“Emporia State provided me a wonderful experience as a student-athlete and I hope to do the same for my players,” said Higgins. “We are going to recruit kids that want to come to ESU and represent this university well on the field, in the classroom and in the community.”

Higgins and his wife Heather, a 1995 graduate of Emporia State, are the parents of three children - son Halen and daughters Harlee and Gracyn.

What .do .you .like .the .best .about .coaching .at .Emporia .State? .First of all, anytime you get a chance to come back to your alma mater as the head football coach, it really is a dream come true and it is something I always thought about ever since I got into the profession. Second, along with being a great Univer-sity and a great community, I think this is a great location to recruit kids too, to get an education and play football.

What .are .your .goals .for .the .2012 .season?We have many different goals within our program, but with the large number of upperclassmen we definitely feel that we are in a position to play in the post season this year whether it’s the playoffs or a bowl game.

What .most .excites .you .about .this .season?We have an experienced group of upperclassmen on both sides of the football and guys that have experienced some level of success at Emporia State. We have a fourth year starter at quarterback. He’s taking snaps from a fourth year starter at center. We have a fourth year starter at wide receiver. All those guys were part of the 23rd ranked offense in the country last year and they all looked really good in the spring. Defensively we are bringing back an All-American that is tied for the school record in interceptions. We have our leading tackler back at linebacker. We have three guys that have all started off and on for three years along the defensive line. but on top of all that I think these guys all get along really well and under-stand what it means to be a Hornet.

What .should .fans .expect .to .see .out .on .the .field .when .they .come .to .Welch .Stadium?We definitely want to be a team that plays with a lot of enthusiasm and en-ergy. We’ll respect our opponents, but want to have the attitude that we will never take the field without the belief that we will win.

How . do . you . want . the . typical .Hornet . football . player . to . be .perceived?A player that has a strong work ethic, is concerned about his teammates and is mentally and physically tough. Along with having the right type of character off the field.

When .a .player .graduates . from .your . program, . what . do . you .want . them . to . remember . from .it?I definitely want our player to have the same type of experience that I did as a student athlete at Emporia State. We want to be proud not only of our foot-ball program but of this great institu-tion. We want them leaving here with a sense of pride that their alma mater is Emporia State University. We want them to be leaders in their communi-ties and be a positive impact in every-thing they want to do in life.

Emporia State has won at least five games in each of the last two years and with an experienced group on both offense and defense are in a position for a break through season.

The Hornets return seven starters from last year’s offense that ranked 23rd in the nation in total yards. Emporia State averaged 436.5 yards and 30.5 points per game in 2012. They did it with a good balance of rushing and passing and look to maintain that balance this season despite having one of the most experienced starting quarterbacks in the conference.

Three-year starter Tyler Eckenrode is the leading returning passer in the MIAA after throwing for 2,580 yards last sea-son. He added 283 yards on the ground to rank third in the MIAA in total offense and is the top returner in the conference. There are a total of five quarterbacks on the roster, however Eckenrode is the only one to have taken a snap in a col-lege game.

Eckenrode will be protected by an offensive line that brings back three start-ers from last season. All-MIAA and All-Region selection Lance Uhles anchors the line from his center position. He has started every game he has played

at Emporia State. Senior Kameron Neal started all 11 games at guard for the Hornets last season after earning All-Jayhawk conference honors at Butler CC in 2010. Junior Trey Rodgers started nine of the final ten games for Emporia State last season. Senior Josh Moses is expected to be back at full strength after missing all of last season after getting injured in the opener. Sophomore Aaron Blount saw action in five games last year at tackle and was the first overall pick in the Hornets 2012 Spring Game Draft.

The top three receivers from last year return as well in seniors Ray Ray Davis, Shjuan Richardson, and Adam Schiltz (33 catches for 425 yards and one TD). Davis was sixth in the MIAA in receptions with 50 catches for 540 yards and four touchdowns in ten games. Richardson had 37 catches for 644 yards to rank tenth in the MIAA in receiving yards per game and was fourth in the league with nine touchdowns. An All-American in track for the Hornets, he was the 27th fastest football player in the country in the 60m indoors and was ranked second among Division II players. Schiltz had 33 receptions for 425 yards to rank second among MIAA tight ends in receptions per game and third in receiving yards per game.

Junior Josh Klumpe and sophomore

Austin Willis each caught a pass last season. Two players will be making their return after sitting out. Junior Charleston Johnson returns to the line-up after sit-ting out last year. He averaged 24.0 yards per catch with touchdowns on two of his six receptions in 2010. Senior Andre Maupin caught 18 passes for 234 yards and a pair of touchdowns in 2007, his last season of action at Emporia State. Redshirt freshman Logan Clothier had a solid spring for the Hornets. Senior Jordan Stout will make his football debut at wide receiver after playing basketball for four years for the Hornets.

The Hornets lost three running backs that combined for 1,574 yards last sea-son. Sophomore Jordan Tice had an outstanding spring for Emporia State after averaging 9.6 yards per carry with a touchdown last season. Senior Derwin Hall averaged 7.6 yards per carry with a touchdown as a running back last season. The Hornets have three trans-fer running backs on the roster - Dozie Iwuagwa from Diablo Valley (Calif.) CC, Josh Mathews from Drake, and Matt Gentle from Moorpark College to go with returning squad members Trent Davis and John Bannister.

The Emporia State defense will return six starters from last season and four

others that started at least two games. The Hornets were second in the nation in turnover margin last season, forcing 37 turnovers. Their 22 interceptions were the most by a team that did not make the playoffs. ESU’s opponents completed just 54.5% of their passes as the Hornets finished third in the MIAA in pass defense efficiency.

The defense is led by senior All-American Derek Lohmann at safety. Lohmann led the MIAA and was fourth in the nation in interceptions last sea-son. His eight picks last year were the most in the nation in the regular season and allowed him to tie the Hornet career record with 14 interceptions. He averaged 19.4 yards per interception return. He was fifth on the Hornets with 61 tackles and had 6.5 tackles for loss.

Overall the defensive backfield may be one of the deepest and most talented positions for the Hornets. Senior Kevin Gaddis had five interceptions to rank fourth in the MIAA and 28th in the nation. Senior Jeff Richards had two picks from his safety position for the Hornets last season as ESU’s 15 returning intercep-tions are more than six MIAA teams had all of last season. Senior Julian Dozier has played in every game since setting

foot on campus. Senior Josh Taylor will return to the line up after getting injured in the opener last season and missing the final ten games. Speedy junior Gary Fortune is expected to battle for a start-ing position after transferring from Ohio University.

Senior linebacker Ben Carlson returns after leading Emporia State with 85 tackles last season. The transfer from Missouri State and former Major League draft pick of the Cleveland Indians was 12th in the MIAA in total tackles. Senior Jordan Sanders is the second leading returning tackler for the Hornets with 65 stops in just seven starts last year. Sophomore Kamrhan Jones had 16 tack-les last season as a true freshman and had two fumble recoveries. Junior Ashton Reichmann had 13 stops last season.

Seniors Dakota Hagler, Tim Chandler, and Tim Weaver have all started for parts of the last three seasons on the defen-sive line for ESU. Hagler had 34 tackles and 7.5 tackles for loss last season. Chandler recorded 14 tackles with two sacks while Weaver was credited with 19 tackles and one tackle for loss last sea-son. Senior Jake Farley bounced back from an injury plagued sophomore year to record 15 tackles and 1.5 tackles for loss

in 2011. Junior Aaron Mathews played in all 11 games last season.

Special teams units will replace both starting kickers. Sophomore Zane Guadagnolo hit two of three field goals for the Hornets last season and was three of four on point after attempts in relief of starter Zak King. He had a season long 31 yarder for Emporia State. Senior Derek Jonas kicked off 12 times for the Hornets last season, but did not attempt a field goal or PAT. The Hornets will be looking for a punter to replace three year starter Tyler Chilson. Kevin Gaddis had 12 punt returns with a 10.4 yard average last season. Derwin Hall was an honor-able mention returner as a sophomore in 2010.

The Hornets open the season against Ft. Hays State on August 30 in the first of five home games. With the unbal-anced schedule Emporia State will not play Pittsburg State, Central Missouri and Missouri Southern.

For the men, champions are crowned in football, cross country, basketball, indoor and outdoor track & field, baseball, tennis and golf. The women compete for titles in volleyball, cross country, soccer, basketball, indoor and outdoor track & field, softball, golf and tennis.

The MIAA turned a new page on July 1, 1992, when the NCAA Division II conference changed its name from the Missouri Intercollegiate Athletic Association to the Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association.

The decision to make the change originated in 1989, when Pittsburg State University and Washburn University became the first schools outside the state of Missouri to gain member-ship in the MIAA.

The conference was first organized in 1912 with 14 mem-ber institutions. Of those original members, the University of Central Missouri, Truman State University, and Northwest Missouri State University still remain a part of the MIAA.

The first change in membership came in 1924, when the MIAA reorganized to include only the five regional Missouri state colleges: Central, Truman (at the time known as Northeast Missouri State), Northwest, Southeast Missouri State University and Southwest Missouri State University (now Missouri State).

Over the next 56 years, three schools joined the member-ship: the Missouri School of Mines (later the University of Missouri-Rolla) in 1935, Lincoln University in 1970, and the University of Missouri-St. Louis in 1980.

The 1980s brought the biggest changes in the conference. In 1981, Southwest Missouri State University opted to move to NCAA Division I and the MIAA appointed its first full-time com-missioner, Ken Jones, in July.

He would be in the position for 16 years, retiring in 1997. Former Gulf South and Metro commissioner Ralph McFillen succeeded Jones, serving 10 years before his retirement in 2007. Jim Johnson succeeded McFillen in July of that year. Dr. Bob Boerigter was named the new commissioner in late 2010.

Southwest Baptist University brought membership back to eight schools in 1986, before the major expansion of the con-ference in 1989. Pittsburg State, Washburn, Missouri Southern and Missouri Western formerly members of the Central States Intercollegiate Conference began competition in the 1989-90 season.

Southeast Missouri State left the MIAA following the 1990-91 season to move on to NCAA Division I, and was replaced by Emporia State University in the 1991-92 season.

In 1996 Missouri St. Louis left the league and was followed by Missouri Rolla in 2005. Lincoln forfeited their membership in 1999. Fort hays State joined the league in 2006 and Nebraska-Omaha came in during the 2008 season. Lincoln rejoined the league this year to make the MIAA a 12-team league.

In August 1991, Judy Willson was hired as the MIAA’s first full-time sports information director. She left in 1994, and was succeeded by Matt Newbery, formerly the assistant sports information director at Pittsburg State. He became the assis-tant to the commissioner for media relations in 2005. Kellen Coleman replaced Newberry as Director of Communications for the 2008-09 season.

A third full-time staff member was added in 2005, as former Emporia State track and field athlete Natasha Oakes was hired as the assistant to the commissioner for compliance. Larry House joined the staff in August 2007 as Assistant Commissioner for Championships and Business Development

The 1962 book, Football--For The Sport of It, by Fred A. Markowitz, detailed the history of football at Kansas State Teachers College from 1893-1962. In the book, Mr. Markowitz lists some of the all-time greats as selected by legendary coaches Bill Hargis and Fran Welch.

esU Centennial football teamTwenty-five individuals were honored during the 1997 season, the institution’s 100th of football competition, as members of the ESU Centennial Football Team. More than 300 former players were considered for the honor which was based on play-ing career at ESU; awards, recognition and achievement as a Hornet football player; team success; and contribution to the overall betterment of the program. Fans from across the country sent in more than 350 ballots, with the top 100 vote-getters forwarded to a committee which boasted more than 120 years of association with the ESU program.

The Emporia State Athletic Department had another outstanding year in competition as well as in the classrooms, stands and community during 2010-11. ESU finished 46th in the final Learfield Sports Director’s Cup standings, highlighted by the men’s track and field teams fourth place finish at the NCAA Division II Outdoor Track and Field Championships. Nearly 140 ESU student-athletes earned academic recognition from the MIAA for maintaining a 3.00 cumulative GPA and over 40 were presented D-II Athletic Directors Association Academic Achievement Awards. Student-athletes from ESU’s 15 sports teams contributed over 2,400 hours of community service during the past year.

It is the seventh straight year ESU has finished in the top 50 nationally out of over 300 NCAA Division II schools in the Director’s Cup which measures the overall strength of an athletic program based on NCAA play. ESU finished fourth among all MIAA schools and was the top finishing school from the state of Kansas. The Hornets have finished in the top four in the conference in six straight seasons and was the best finisher amongst conference schools during the 2007-08 season. ESU scored in seven MIAA sponsored sports in the Director’s Cup standings, second to Central Missouri who scored in 12 sports with ten coming in MIAA sponsored competition.

ESU fans showed up in great numbers throughout the school year. The Lady Hornet women’s basketball was second in the nation in average attendance with over 2,000 fans per game. The volleyball team averaged nearly 600 fans per game with two crowds of over 1,000 to rank tenth in the nation. The men’s basketball was 19th in the nation while the Hornet football was 36th in the nation in average attendance.

The men’s track and field team had the highest national finish for ESU, with a fourth place showing at the outdoor national championships following their fifth place finish indoors. This is the fourth straight year that ESU has had a program finish in the top four nationally, all by four different sports. Last year the Lady Hornet basketball team won the national championship, in 2009 the Hornet baseball team was the national runner-up and in 2008 the ESU softball team played for the national title.

Josh Schuler led the way for the Hornets outdoors, finishing second in both the 100m and 200m in school record fashion while Andrew Etheridge won the national championship in the 110m hurdles for ESU.

Emporia State plays in front of some of the largest crowds in the nation in most sports.

The Hornet volleyball team won their first round NCAA Tournament match to finish 17th in the nation. It is the third time in the last four years that ESU has advanced to the NCAA South Central Regional semifinals. Brittney Miller was named Player of the Year in the MIAA and South Central Region on the way to All-American honors. She was also named the MIAA’s nominee for NCAA Woman of the Year.

The baseball Hornets won the MIAA regular season championship and went 1-2 in the NCAA Tournament to place 26th nationally. Dillon Hazlett was drafted in the 20th round by the Seattle Mariners in the major league baseball first year player draft after earning All-American honors for ESU.

The ESU softball team won their sixth MIAA regular season championship in the last seven years. They advanced to the NCAA Tournament regional semifinals to place 33rd in the nation. Angela Mahan was named the MIAA Player of the Year and earned All-American honors for the Hornets.

The final points for ESU in the Director’s Cup came from the women’s track team that placed 34th indoors and 55th outdoors at the NCAA Track & Field Championships. Katie Mona was responsible for those points after winning MIAA championships in three events indoors and outdoors as well as earning All-MIAA honors in cross country.

Alli Volkens became the Lady Hornets eighth All-American in the last 12 years after leading the MIAA in scoring and rebounding. ESU, the 2010 NCAA Division II National Champions, became the first MIAA team to win 20 games and advance to the conference tournament championship and not get a bid to the NCAA Tournament. Volkens was also one of three finalists for the Ken B. Jones Award as the top student-athlete in the MIAA.

Individually a total of 17 Hornets earned All-American honors in an MIAA-high nine different sports. ESU also had ten student-athletes earn Capital One Academic All-District honors, led by baseball player Kevin Wempe earning Academic All-America status.

ESU will head into the 2011-12 school year with four new head coaches. Former NBA first round draft pick Shaun Vandiver will take over the men’s basketball program, Julie LeMaire will lead the softball program, Bryan Sailer will head up the soccer program, while Steven Blocker will lead the track and field/cross country programs. Three of the four head coaches are replacing head coaches that have moved on to the NCAA Division I level.

Here come the Hornets! Go Hornets Go! How did Emporia State University really get to known as the Hornets?

A casual conversation between Vic Trusler and an Emporia Gazette reporter named Cecil Carle led the establishment of the Hornets as Emporia State’s mascot. In the early 1930’s, the Teachers College students were called the Yaps. It is uncertain why the students were called that except popular legend suggests that because they were teachers, they did a lot of “yapping.” In any case, most of the students were not fond of the moniker.

Trusler, a legendary figure on campus in the 1930’s, and coach at Roosevelt High School, and Carle, without design, were instrumental in getting the name changed. Carle was seeking information on the official name of the Roosevelt High School team. Trusler suggested he call the Roosevelt team the Bluejackets since they wore blue jerseys.

In that momentous conversation, Trusler further commented that the students at the Teacher College really did not like being called the Yaps. Instead he suggested they be called the Yellow Jackets because the men wore yellow sweaters with black stripes on the sleeves. And, like the insect, they had quite a sting to them. Nothing further was said, but the next Gazette article about the Teachers College referred to the students as Yellow Jackets.

The evolution of the name Yellow Jacket to Hornet is almost anti-climatic. A lack of newspaper space forced the Yellow Jacket to be shortened to Hornet. For a while the two names were interchanged and used throughout the state.

To further cement the Hornet tradition, the football team received new uniforms in 1936. They were almost entirely black prompting some to suggest that the team be called the Mud Daubers, which are yellow jackets, which are hornets, which game more sting to the legend.

“Corky” first appeared on the scene in 1934 when Paul Edwards, then a sophomore, made what he thought was a more representative figure of the school mascot than the stereotyped hornet being used. He entered it in a contest and finished second. Not to be discouraged Edwards redrew his hornet and showed it to Ray Maul, then manager of the Memorial Union, who thought he could “use the buzzard.” The Corky figure would soon become popular on campus.

Edwards liked his Corky so much he patented the bug in 1936, which dated its 50th anniversary to 1986. During Homecoming 1987, Edwards dedicated a Corky the Hornet statue he sculpted and is now on display in the Memorial Union Bookstore. A large number of Corky’s cropped up beginning in 2003 during a Parade of Corkys throughout Emporia and many of them are still on display around campus and in the community.

Over the last several years, Emporia State has implemented several projects to upgrade their facilities. The projects continue to give Emporia State some of the finest venues in NCAA Division II.

The Emporia State Athletics Weight Room was renovated and expanded over the summer into one of the top facilities in the MIAA. The renovation increase the area of the current “Hornet’s Nest” from 2,460 square feet to over 4,300 square feet and includes state of the art equipment. When the current Hornet track and field weight room, located on the lower level of the HPER Building, is added to the total ESU will have over 6,000 square feet dedicated to athletic strength and conditioning.

Opened in 1937 and dedicated in 1960, Welch Stadium sits just north of beautiful Lake Wooster in the heart of the ESU campus. Crowds as large as 10,000 fans have watched games when bleachers were added in each end zone. Permanent lighting makes it possible to televise games and play at night.

The facility also has been used extensively by individuals outside the University community. Welch Stadium is the home field of the Emporia High School football team and has hosted the Kansas Special Olympics, the 1998 and 2004 Kansas Shrine Bowl. The 1995, 1999 and 2006 NCAA Division II National Track Championships were held here as well.

A Super Turf playing surface was installed at Welch Stadium in the fall of 2005. The field is named Jones Field at Welch Stadium in honor of the W.S. and E.C. Jones Testamentary Trust, the lead contributor to the project.

Zola Witten Track at Welch Stadium was resurfaced over the summer of 2005 as well. The resurfacing prepared ESU as the host site of the 2006 NCAA II men’s and women’s outdoor track and field national championships. The facility hosted the same event in 1995 and 1999.

The Hanna Clubhouse at the Trusler Sports Complex, just north of the ESU campus, has been in place since 2007. The facility houses locker rooms for baseball and softball, as well as coaches offices. It gives Hornet student-athletes on the teams a place to call home before and after games and practices. The second floor of the building serves as an observation deck.

Throughout NCAA Division II programs, White Auditorium, built in 1940 as a product of President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s Work Projects Administration (WPA), is regarded as one of the premier basketball arenas in the nation. The 70 year old facility was upgraded during the fall of 2008 with a new scoreboard and video board as well as a new color scheme on the arena floor and the throughout the entire building.

The approximately $270,000 improvement project was funded with City of Emporia general fund and Convention and Visitors Bureau, along with contributions from ESU, the Walter S. and Evan C. Jones Trust, Emporia Sports Promotions, Inc., and Sunflower Gymnastics.

In the fall of 2009 the original wooden balcony seats were replaced with modern black plastic seats, that include cup holders.

In addition to White Auditorium, the ESU basketball and volleyball teams also have a practice facility in the Health, Physical Education and Recreation Building on the Emporia State campus. The practice facility in the HPER underwent a major renovation during the summer of 2008. A new lighting system was installed as well as a the playing court getting resurfaced to match the arena floor at White Auditorium.

ESU dedicated Milton Tennis Courts in 2004 in honor of former coach George Milton. Milton was a coach at ESU from 1966-99. The facility, located west of the HPER Building on campus, is used by the men’s and women’s tennis program and hosted the Hornet women’s first ever trip to the NCAA tournament in 2005. The courts were resurfaced adn painted in US Open blue during the summer of 2011. The Hornets also play matches at the Emporia High School Courts in northwest Emporia. The EHS complex has 12 lighted courts, allowing for men’s and women’s matches to be played a the same time.

Jones Park in northwest Emporia is the home of the Emporia State cross country program. The park provides practice facilities and the host-site for the ESU Invitational, a meet hosted be ESU each year. Jones Park was the host site for the 2009 MIAA Cross Country Championships.

Emporia State student-athletes didn’t just provide the Emporia community with exciting sports action throughout the year, the Hornets also provided the community with more 2,400 hours of community service during the 2010-11 year. The Emporia State Student Athlete Advisory Committee donated $1,500 to the Make-A-Wish Foundation last year.

Student-athletes worked with organizations like the Make-A-Wish Foundation, Habitat for Humanity, Rebuilding Together, Abundant Harvest Food Kitchen and several local elementary schools on projects that included painting homes for the disadvantaged, dancing and visiting with the elderly at the Senior Prom, collecting canned foods and to recycling.

Our relationship has been and will continue to be very strong with Emporia and the Flint Hills area. Our teams have been a constant in the community. The teams pay attention to how the community perceives them and it is important that we maintain our great relationship.

2011-12 Community Engagement Spotlight. One new initiative that has been in place the last couple of years is the Hangin’ with a Hornet mentoring program. This very successful program has paired up Emporia State athletes from all teams with Emporia Middle School students. Emporia State student-athletes meet at the Middle School for lunch with students each week to discuss academics and other topics the students would like guidance on. Over 50 ESU athletes chose to be mentors in 2010-2011.

MIAA Game Environment Award of ExcellenceIn response to the creation of the Division II game environment initiative, ESU created “The Sportsmanship Statement”, which is presented by a student-athlete either live, via audio recordings, or filmed and shown on a video board to the fans before the start of home football, soccer, volleyball, basketball, softball and baseball contests. The statement encourages fans to cheer for their team while also showing respect to other players, fans, coaches and officials. In addition to the Sportsmanship Statement, the ESU SAAC also created the Sportsmanship Creed, which is displayed in each team’s locker room. The Creed was designed to not only convey what it means to be a student-athlete at the institution, but to address how student-athletes should conduct themselves within the campus, community and on the field of play by reaffirming the ideas of Honor, Outstanding, Respect, Nobility, Enthusiasm, Teamwork and Support, better known as H.O.R.N.E.T.S.

As the university begins to celebrate its 150th Anniversary, Emporia State is gaining the reputation as being the innovative university in the state of Kansas.

It’s easy to see why. With aspirations to create an Honors College, launch a $5.4 million renovation of two of its residence halls, begin work on Wi-Fi for the entire campus and completion of the stunning Memorial Union renovation, Emporia State is a university on the move.

In these and many other ways, Emporia State offers its students a life-changing private liberal arts college experience at a state university price.

The quality of Emporia State’s academic programs is also well-known. The university’s many accolades include a first-tier regional university designation by U.S. News and World Report, a top-four model teacher education program and international accreditation for our School of Business. The university’s science and nursing programs prepare its graduates for rewarding health care careers that are sorely needed in Kansas.

The university’s four schools and graduate and distance learning programs embody that quality. In fact, U.S. News and World Report has rated Emporia State’s online program as one of the best in the nation. In addition, Emporia State University-Kansas City has robust degree and certificate programs for working adults.

The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences is called the heart of the university for a reason. Every major requires take liberal arts and sciences courses to graduate. From stellar programs in the sciences to music and theatre, the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences has built a reputation of excellence throughout its curriculum by creating critical and creative thinkers.

Likewise, Emporia State’s School of Business educates students to become entrepreneurs, critical thinkers and ethical leaders in the workplace. Graduates hold leadership positions at some of the most significant companies in Kansas and the nation. The School of Business holds prestigious Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business International accreditation, a designation held by less than 5 percent of business schools worldwide. The accreditation is the “gold standard” that identifies business programs of the highest quality.

As a national leader in teacher preparation, the Teachers College has a rich history of preparing teachers to succeed in the classroom. Arthur Levine, former president of Teachers College, Columbia University, and president of the Woodrow Wilson National Fellowship Foundation, wrote “Educating School Teachers,” a national study of America’s education schools. He cited four “exemplary” programs in the nation, including Emporia State University. Emporia State is included for its curriculum, student teaching, partnerships (e.g., Professional Development Schools), and the commitment of the faculty to raise the quality of the entire state education system. “ESU is the Camelot for teacher education,” Levine said.

Emporia State University is located next to downtown Emporia, a vibrant town of about 27,000 with coffee shops, restaurants, a wonderful art deco theatre and an arts scene that includes a symphony orchestra, which links with Emporia State’s renowned music program. Its system of city parks rivals Kansas’ best.

Emporia was founded Feb. 20, 1857, and hailed as “the loveliest site in the world for a town.” Named for a Greek market center, Emporia has thrived as a focal point for manufacturing and trade. Four major highways intersect in Emporia — Interstate 35, the Kansas Turnpike, U.S. Highway 50 and Kansas Highway 99. Emporia is an important crossroads for the east-central Kansas population. With nearly 700 lodging rooms, 80 dining choices and 30 meeting facilities, Emporia is a great meeting place for regional, state and national conferences and events.

Serving as the county seat, Emporia is the largest city in Lyon County, covering 8.97 square miles. The city’s population is about 26,760, and Lyon County has a population of 35,935.

Because the Emporia State University Teachers College is embedded in the area’s schools, the city’s and area’s elementary and secondary school systems are exemplary.

Emporia is known as the “Front Porch to the Flint Hills,” the state’s most magical landscape with the world’s largest tract of undisturbed tall grass prairie. The beautiful Flint Hills also offer the following outdoor experiences:

• Twenty miles from town is the Tallgrass National Prairie Preserve with fishing and more than 40 miles of hiking trails.

• Ready to bike? At the north end of campus, there’s College Trails, Emporia’s oldest single track trail system. It consists of a network of winding trails that run along the Neosho River.

• Looking for more fishing? Consider the John Redmond Reservoir and Melvern Lake, where you can boat, camp, swim, bike and hike 30 minutes from town.

• Looking to spot an American bald eagle? Just 30 minutes away is the Flint Hills National Wildlife Refuge in Hartford.

tHiS iS EMporiA StAtE UniVErSitYThe School of Library and Information Management prepares its students to analyze and manage information on a global scale.

Its programs, offered in numerous states across the nation, can lead to a Ph.D.

Emporia State prides itself on its hands-on, student-centered approach to education. Along with its commitment to student success, the university has set the bar high for education outcomes. In fact, 90 percent of our graduates have a job or are in graduate school six months after graduation from the university.

Moreover, 85 percent of the seniors who responded to the recent National Survey for Student Engagement say they would choose Emporia State again if they could start their college career over.

A $20 million renovation of Emporia State’s Memorial Union was completed this year. The Memorial Union was constructed in 1925 in memory of the students who fought and died in military wars. Additions were constructed in 1958, 1963 and 1972.

By an 80-20 percent margin, ESU students approved a fee increase to help pay for the project.

A Lawrence architectural firm, Treanor Architects P.A., designed the renovation plan following a series of meetings with ESU students, staff and Emporia residents.

Included in the renovation was:

• Creation of new student lounge space and performance area;

• Renovation of the current student resident dining;

• An addition on the east side of the building featuring a new entrance, information center and admissions office;

• Redesigned entrances to the building’s west, south and east sides;

• Redesigned meeting spaces and traffic patterns inside the building;

The Memorial Union has a long and storied history on the ESU campus.

On Aug. 15, 1922, — 90 years ago — the Memorial Union was incorported as a legal entity in 1922. This set in motion the earnest efforts of students and faculty to raise money to build this memorial to Emporia State students who made the supreme sacrifice in service to the country during the Spanish-American War and WWI. The first phase opened on Founders’ Day, Feb. 15, 1925 becoming the first student union building west of the Mississippi River, the second student veteran memorial union, the eighth oldest student union in the U.S., and the 15th student union in the world.

Michael D. Shonrock, Ph.D.President

When Dr. Michael D. Shonrock became the 16th president of Emporia State University on Jan. 3, 2012, he brought a leadership style influenced by another 16th president — Abraham Lincoln.

“Get out of the office and circulate among the troops” is one tenet of Lincoln’s leadership. Dr. Shonrock is always ready to give and receive high fives and fist bumps with students, faculty and staff alike when he walks across campus.

Lincoln also believed in building strong alliances. For Dr. Shonrock, this means building relationships with faculty, staff and students on campus; alumni and current and future donors; as well as members of the Emporia community, Kansas Board of Regents, Kansas legislators and other academic institutions in the state.

Since March, Dr. Shonrock has been traveling the state of Kansas, meeting with community college partners, media outlets and the public at alumni events. On campus, Dr. Shonrock is a strong advocate for shared governance and works closely with representatives of the Faculty Senate, Classified Assembly and Associated Student Government as well as a new Unclassified Staff Senate.

Partnering with the Emporia community is key to strengthening both the town and university, according to Dr. Shonrock. A Hornet Telethon held in April and organized by the Admissions office was a significant event from this partnership. During the telethon, community leaders worked telephones to contact newly admitted students and welcome them to campus. Other campus and community members spent the same time writing postcards to the new students.

With the enrollment management team, Dr. Shonrock is looking beyond student recruitment to student retention, a key component to increasing enrollment. One goal involves research opportunities for students.

Emporia State has a good reputation for undergraduate research, and Dr. Shonrock has recommended the experience be expanded so that all undergraduate students have the opportunity to participate in research and creative activities. Other goals include enhancing the honors program experience and extending a leadership studies minor. During the Fall 2012 semester, Dr. Shonrock plans to teach an introductory leadership course.

Under Dr. Shonrock’s leadership, Emporia State is embarking on a much-needed housing project — upgrading and renovating Singular and Trusler residence halls. Already on a long-term plan, the project was moved up by allocating on-campus resources to complete the work. Work also is under way to expand the wireless network to cover the entire campus.

A self-described futurist, Dr. Shonrock is focusing on Emporia State’s heritage — the regional institution celebrates its 150th anniversary in 2013 — to determine how to strengthen its future and reinforce the belief that Emporia State provides a private college experience at a public university price. An upcoming “President’s Report on Innovations and Aspirations for Emporia State University” will show how the institution can become what Dr. Shonrock refers to as a “Division 2-plus.”

Dr. Shonrock earned a bachelor’s degree in geography with a chemistry minor and a master’s degree in college student personnel from Western Illinois University, an education specialist degree from Pittsburg State University in Kansas and his Ph.D. in higher education administration from the University of Kansas.

He has worked in higher education senior administration for more than 20 years. With his wife, Karen, Dr. Shonrock has a history of community involvement, what he calls paying “civic rent,” or giving back.

In Emporia, the Shonrocks attend First United Methodist Church. Dr. Shonrock will soon serve on the board of the United Way of the Flint Hills. He attends meetings of the Regional Development Association of East-Central Kansas, the Emporia Area Chamber of Commerce board and the Chamber’s Joint Economic Development Activity Committee and looks forward to joining the RDA and Chamber as a board member in the future.

Kent WeiserAthletic Director

Under the leadership of Director of Athletics Kent Weiser, Emporia State has consistently competed at the national level in NCAA Division II on the field, in the classroom and in the stands. In the last five years, three different Hornet programs have competed in four national championship games, culminating with the Lady Hornets 2010 NCAA Division II Women’s Basketball National Championship.

Emporia State University has ranked in the top 50 of nearly 300 D-II schools in each of the last five years, highlighted by an MIAA best 11th place finish in the 2007-08 Director’s Cup Standings. In the classroom, Emporia State is ranked in the top 20 in the nation in producing Academic All-Americans in the 21st century. The athletic and academic success has combined to place every ESU program in the top 25 in national attendance at some point during Weiser’s ten year tenure.

The Hornets have won 23 MIAA regular season team championships and have finished in the top 20 of Division II in 11 different sports under Weiser’s leadership.

Emporia State Athletics had five top 20 team finishes in 2009-10 as ten of 15 programs made the NCAA post-season. In addition to the Lady Hornets national championship in basketball, Emporia State also picked up top 20 finishes by the men’s and women’s indoor track & field, softball, and women’s outdoor track & field teams.

In the classroom Emporia State ranks in the top 20 in the nation among Division II schools with 16 Academic All-Americans in the 21st century. Emporia State regularly places over 50 percent of its student-athletes on the A.D.’s Honor Roll and has had an NCAA Top VIII Award winner under Weiser. Nine coaches hired by Weiser have been named MIAA Coach of the Year in their respective sports. During the 2003-04 school year Emporia State was the first NCAA Division II institution to advance to the postseason in football, men’s and women’s basketball, baseball and softball with 11 of Emporia State’s 15 programs competing in the NCAA postseason.

Major capital improvements, such as the Emporia State Athletics Weight Room, Hanna Baseball/Softball Clubhouse, Jones Field SuperTurf, the artificial turf infield at Glennen Field, new scoreboards at the Trusler Sports Complex and White Auditorium and the resurfacing of Witten Track have been completed under his watch with 100 percent of the nearly $2 million coming from donors. These improvements have helped maintain those facilities as some of the best in the nation at the Division II level. His leadership of Emporia State’s fund raising efforts led to the largest single gift for athletics scholarships in school history, a $1.25 million contribution in 2004.

He helped establish the first department-wide shoe and apparel contracts in NCAA Division II, when Emporia State partnered with Adidas in 2000. Emporia State is still one of just two NCAA Division II athletic programs in the nation to be a Direct Sales Partner with Adidas. The agreement stretches buying power of all 15 Hornet programs and is similar to programs designed for NCAA Division I institutions.

While other institutions were faced with reducing sports, Weiser spearheaded the effort to add women’s soccer as a varsity sport, increasing participation opportunities for women at the University for the first time since 1980. His efforts helped Emporia State receive a grant from the NCAA in support of expanding administrative opportunities for women and minorities.

Weiser has been a guest panelist at numerous NCAA and NACDA meetings, including for the Division II Strategic Alliance Matching Grant Enhancement Program and the NCAA Leadership Institute for Minority Males.

Weiser, a native of Great Bend, Kan., received a bachelor of arts and a master of science in education from the University of Kansas. He began his career in athletics at KU, where he worked from 1981-88. During that time, he held administrative positions as ticket manager and marketing director He also served as the Kansas women’s golf coach from 1984-88.

He was the associate director of development for Ottawa University from 1990-93. He joined Emporia State in 1999, after serving as associate athletic director at Oregon State University for six years. Weiser is married to the former Amy Pangrac, and the couple has two daughters, Katie and Abby.
