sChool nICkname

“Bronchos” was the nickname selected for Central Oklahoma in 1922 by Mrs. C.W. Wantland, wife of long-time UCO football coach C.W. Wantland. The name was chosen from a number of suggestions for the name of UCO’s football team and became the nickname for all athletic teams at the school.

Mrs. Wantland was made an honorary member of the Letterman’s Club as a result of selecting the nickname, becoming the first woman admitted to that organization.

sChool Colors

Bronze and blue were chosen as Central Oklahoma’s school colors early in the fall of 1895 by school president Edmund Dandridge Murdaugh. The first public display of the bronze and blue was in Guthrie when a student represented UCO in the first oratorical contest ever held in Oklahoma.

John Martin

In his first year at the helm of the Central Oklahoma program is John Martin, who took over the reigns last July after spending the previ-ous four seasons as head coach at Coffeyville

(Kan.) Community College.Martin, a former standout at Mid-America

Intercollegiate Athletics Association rival Emporia State and Major League Baseball draft pick, went 133-105 at Coffeyville and guided the Ravens to the regional tournament all four years.

John assumed control of the Coffeyville program in August 2011 and led the team to a school-record 33 wins during the 2012 season, earning Jayhawk Conference Coach of the Year honors.

The Ravens tied that record by winning 33 games again the following season, set another record with a 38-18 campaign in 2014 and had 29 wins last spring. Martin took the Ravens to four straight super regional tournaments, one of just two teams in the junior college ranks to accomplish that feat.

A prep standout at Shawnee Mission (Kan.) North High School, Martin played one year at Hutchinson (Kan.) Community College before going to ESU and putting together a sensa-tional three-year starting career at catcher.

John capped his college career by leading the Hornets to the NCAA Division II World Series

the Martin File

as a senior and was a 24th round draft pick of the Los Angeles Dodgers in 2006.

He spent two years in the Dodgers organi-zation and also played one season each for independent professional teams in Kansas City and Wichita.

Martin returned to Emporia State to start his college coaching career in 2008 as assistant coach, directing the pitchers and catchers. He helped the Hornets to a 134-42 record during his three-year tenure, including a national runner-up finish in 2009.

Martin also spent two summers as manager of the Liberal Bee Jays, a summer collegiate baseball team. He coached the team to a 42-13 record and the National Baseball Congress championship in 2010 when he was named NBC Manager of the Year.

John is married (Courtney).

Born: Dec. 13, 1983. High School Education: Shawnee Mission (Kan.) North High School, 2002. College Education: Emporia State University, B.S. in Integrated Studies, 2009.

aaron rea

In his first year as a graduate assistant coach with the Central Oklahoma baseball program is Aaron Rea, who will work with the outfielders and hitters.

Rea coached outfielders and hitters at Coffeyville Community College last year under new UCO head coach John Martin.

Aaron was a two-year standout at Cowley County Community College, earning All-Jayhawk Conference honors as a sophomore. He spent his junior season at Division I Wichita State before playing at Emporia State as a senior, collecting All-MIAA recognition with the Hornets.

Rea earned a bachelor’s degree in interdisciplinary studies from ESU in 2014.

JeFF Christy

In his first year as Central Oklahoma’s full-time assistant coach is Jeff Christy, who came to the Bronchos after spending the previous five seasons at the Division I level.

Christy, who works with the pitchers and catchers while also serving as UCO’s recruiting coordinator, was an assistant coach at long-time Division I powers Wichita State and Nebraska. He coached with the Shockers in 2011 before assisting the Huskers the past four years.

A native of Lincoln, Neb., Jeff was taken in the 2002 Major League Baseball draft but chose to play at Barton County Community College and was a two-year standout there, earning first-team All-Jayhawk League honors as a sophomore.

Christy moved on to Nebraska and was a two-year starter, helping lead the Huskers to the 2005 College World Series. Christy caught a school-record 64 games in 2005 and was an honorable-mention All-Big 12 pick in 2006.

Jeff was selected in the sixth round of the 2006 MLB Draft by the Minnesota Twins and spent four seasons in the Twins organiza-tion, reaching the Triple A level in 2008 and 2009. He spent the 2010 season with the Wichita Wingnuts of the American Association and was named an All-Star.

Christy began his coaching career at Wichita State in 2011 and helped guide the Shockers to a 39-26 record and the championship game of the Missouri Valley Conference Tournament. At WSU, Jeff was in charge of the catchers and helped the starting catcher become a Johnny Bench award finalist and an 18th-round draft pick.

Christy then spent the summer of 2011 as the manager of the Derby Twins in the Jayhawk Summer Collegiate League, leading the team a 28-17 record and the NBC World Series.

Christy started coaching with Nebraska in the fall of 2011, working with the catchers and as the first base coach. The Huskers made their first regional appearance in five years in 2014 and Christy helped two NU catchers get drafted and play professional baseball.

Jeff earned his bachelor’s degree from Nebraska in 2008. He and his wife (Michelle) have one daughter (Quinn).

sawyer Carroll

In his second year on the Central Oklahoma baseball staff as a graduate assistant coach is former Division I All-American and professional player Sawyer Carroll.

A baseball-football star at Henryetta High School who led the Knights to a Class 3A state baseball cham-pionship, Carroll played two years at Seminole State College and was an All-Bi-State Conference performer as a sophomore.

Sawyer went on to play two years at Kentucky, hitting a Southeastern Conference-best 23 doubles as a junior before putting together a record-setting senior season in 2008.

Carroll became the first consensus first-team All-American in school history that year after hitting a conference-leading .419 with 19 home runs and a school-record 83 runs batted in to lead the Wildcats to the national tournament.

He was also an Academic All-SEC selection as a senior and finished with school career records for average (.386) and on-base percentage (.483).

Carroll was taken in the third round of the 2008 Major League Baseball draft by the San Diego Padres and played several years in the minor leagues for the organization, earning Midwest League All-Star honors in 2009 and Texas League All-Star recognition in 2011.

A cousin of former UCO baseball All-American Tyler Carroll, Sawyer is married (Katie).

new coach and a mostly new roster should make for an interesting season at Central Oklahoma, but don’t sell the Bronchos short just yet.

First-year skipper John Martin is confident his squad will compete at a high level in 2016 despite having 30 newcomers

on the 39-man roster, with the majority of those new players expected to fill key roles throughout the starting lineup.

“We have high hopes and I expect us to go out and win right away,” said Martin, who came to UCO last summer after four years as head coach at Coffeyville (Kan.) Community College. “That’s what our guys expect as well.

“I think it’s a plus that we have a lot of new faces because we’re all starting over. We’re going to work hard every single day in everything we do and we’re going to have fun and we’re going to be a family.”

The Bronchos return just eight lettermen from last year’s 19-26 team, but two of those -- senior first baseman/designated hitter Isaac Hellbusch and senior pitcher Dalton Leiker -- are among the best players in the Mid-America Intercollegiate Athlet-ics Association.

UCO also has back another starting pitcher in senior Car-son Corff, while senior Jacob Borrego started all last year at shortstop and junior Chris Lobato was a part-time starter at catcher.

The bulk of the starting spots will be be manned by newcomers as the Bronchos brought in a heavy influx of talented junior college transfers and Martin expects his team to be fundamentally sound.

“Playing defense and pitching is what it’s all about,” said Martin, a standout catcher during his playing career at MIAA rival Emporia State. “You’ve got to pitch it and catch it. Offensively, we want to put the ball in play and put pressure on the defense. If you do that, good things will happen.”

“Our biggest thing is just to go play hard and compete. That’s what I expect. You can control how hard you play and that’s what we’re focused on.”

Here’s a position-by-position look at UCO:

CatCher

Junior Chris Lobato started 23 games behind the plate last season and is ready to assume a full-time role this spring. He’s a defensive standout with a strong arm and also looks to be much improved offensively. Junior transfer Dan Weer will be the main back-up, with senior Isaac Hellbusch also available if needed.

First Base

The Bronchos are in good shape here, with senior slugger Isaac Hellbusch slated to take over as the starter after being the main desig-nated hitter last year. Hellbusch was an honorable mention All-MIAA selection after hitting .299 with 12 doubles, 10 home runs and 43 runs batted in along with eight stolen bases and could be even more of an offensive threat in 2016. Juniors Jon Kamies and Trae Smith can play here if Hellbusch goes to DH or catcher.

seCond Base

Junior Brenton Washausen is the top candidate to fill the starting spot at second base and should give UCO a big boost with his offensive prowess after batting .353 with 13 doubles, six homers and 37 RBI at Independence (Kan.) Community College last year. Junior letterman Casey Wissinger and sophomore Jake Dyer offer quality depth.

A

DaultonLeiker

2016 season outlook

shortstoP This is the only position where the Bronchos have back an every-day

starter and senior Jacob Borrego ranks among the top defenders in the conference. He had a .253 average with eight doubles and 29 RBI last year in addition to making a team-high 112 assists and is ready to finish with a flourish. Junior Brenton Washausen is available in an emergency.

third Base

UCO is counting on junior T.J. Sparr taking over at the hot corner and much is expected of this multi-talented newcomer in all phases of the game. He batted .324 with 14 doubles, a school-record seven triples, six homers and 23 steals at Coffeyville (Kan.) Community College

last season and will have a major impact. Junior Brenton Washausen can help out if needed.

outField

Newcomers will take over in the outfield and competi-tion is fierce at all three spots.

Juniors Jon Kamies and Korey Floyd are bat-tling it out in left field, junior Landon Eason

is favored to start in right and fleet-footed junior Xavier Warren is expected to be in center. Versatile junior Jake Dyer can play anywhere, while freshman Brenden Fowler, sophomore Torey Hart and juniors Hunter Schellhardt and Casey Bowlan are all capable of contributing.

Kamies is expected to add punch to UCO’s attack after hitting .393 with 16 doubles and 33

RBI at Independence last year, while Floyd had 12 doubles and 32 RBI at Northern Oklahoma-E n i d . Eason is a dangerous switch-hitter

and Warren is an offensive cataylyst who will probably

end up as the team’s lead-off hitter.

PitCher

The pitching staff is spearheaded by one of the top returners in the league, but newcomers will throw the majority

of innings this spring.Senior standout Daulton Leiker is the ace after earning second-

team All-MIAA honors last year. He went a tough-luck 2-4, but had a fine 3.97 earned run average with 88 strikeouts and opponents hit just .212 against him. Juniors Greg Hyde and Brock Stuber are favored to join Leiker as weekend starters, with sophomore Austin Stewart, juniors Ryan McCourt and Jaycee Parker and senior returner Carson Corff all fighting for starting duty. Corff went 2-2 with a 6.80 ERA last year while throwing the second-most innings (42 1/3) on the staff.

McCourt could also see action in a closer role along with sophomore J.D. Cameron, while juniors Kyle Dale, Zayne Dougan, Jaycee Parker, Drew Polk, Bobby Pierce, Gibson Russ, Shawn Troutman and Colt Weiner and senior Zack Wunderlich will be used in a variety of relief roles.

designated hitter

Plenty of players could see action here, depending on what happens at other positions and who has the hot bat. Senior Isaac Hellbusch was an honorable mention All-MIAA pick at this position last year and will see time here when he’s not playing first base, while sophomore Trae Smith will also contend for at bats.

2016 UCO BASEBALL

Central Oklahoma never recovered from a slow start and posted its first losing season in five years in 2015.

The Bronchos lost their first four games of the year and only reached the .500 mark once en route to a 19-26 finish. UCO was competitive all season, but went 10-15 in 25 games decided by two runs or less.

Offense was seldom an issue for the Bronchos, who were never shut out and averaged 6.8 runs a game. But UCO had 20 more errors than their opponents and finished with a team earned run average of 6.67.

The Bronchos opened the season with a three-game series at Arkansas-Fort Smith and lost all three, including one by two runs and another by one.

UCO dropped a 12-10 neutral-site decision to Re-gis before notching its first win on Feb. 14 with a 6-4 12-inning victory over Colorado School of Mines.

The Bronchos made their Mid-America Intercol-legiate Athletics Association and home debut with a four-game series against Nebraska-Kearney and managed only one win in dropping to 2-7.

Central swept a neutral-site doubleheader from Robert Morris on March 3 as Jake O’Brien went 6-for-8 to lead a 23-hit attack, but then dropped all

2015 season Reviewthree games in a league series with Emporia State to fall to 4-10 overall and 1-6 in the conference.

UCO followed with a season-best six-game winning streak, including a four-game MIAA sweep of Lincoln. The Bronchos belted 15 home runs and scored 61 runs in that series, capped by a 31-7 rout as Ethan

Elroy went 5-for-5 with three homers.A 16-3 romp over Lindenwood was the final win

of that streak and it got UCO to 10-10 on the season and 6-6 in the league, but the Bronchos promptly lost their next five games and never reached the .500 mark again.

UCO dropped to 12-18 and 7-13 with a series-opening loss to Northeastern State before coming back to take the final three games.

The Bronchos then split a four-game set with eventual conference champion Missouri Southern, winning the opener 11-9 behind a 17-hit attack and taking the finale by the same score as Isaac Hell-busch drove in five runs.

That had UCO at 16-18 on the season and 11-13 in the MIAA, but the Bronchos lost six of their final eight games -- three of those by one run -- to miss qualifying for the league tournament.

JOe mULLer

Now in his eighth year as athletic director at Central Oklahoma is Joe Muller, who has helped return the Bronchos to national prominence in NCAA Division II.

UCO teams have captured 11 conference championships and had 12 top-10 national finishes during Muller’s tenure, with softball winning the school’s first-ever women’s national championship in 2013.

Sixty-three student-athletes have earned All-America honors over the past seven years and the Bronchos have placed 42nd or better three times in the Learfield Sports Directors’ Cup Standings out of nearly 350 Division II institutions.

The athletic department’s fund-raising efforts have also increased significantly under Joe’s guidance. He secured the largest gift in program history last fall with a $10 million donation that ranks among the highest ever in the NCAA Division II ranks, continues to grow Stampede Club membership and also in-troduced a corporate sales initiative that has generated record revenues for the program in just four years.

Academically, UCO’s student-athletes are performing at all-time high levels. For the past six years, the overall grade point average of student-athletes has surpassed that of the general student population and to demonstrate that academics is a priority, the athletic department now hosts an annual Academic Awards Banquet recognizing the achievements of student-athletes.

A native of Stillwater, Joe earned bachelor’s and master’s degrees from Oklahoma State and got his start in athletic administration at OSU when he served as director of athletic marketing and promotions from 1985-90.

Muller was involved in the television industry for more than a decade before returning to OSU in 2002 as associate athletic director, serving in that capacity until going to Purdue in ‘06.

He was senior associate athletic director for external relations for the Boilermakers for two years before becoming just the seventh athletic director in Central’s rich athletic history in July of 2008

Joe is married (Julie) and has three sons (Jaxon, Brandon and Matthew).

While at NSU, he also was the Executive Director of the Educational Foundation, Assistant to the President, Dean of Continuing Education and Special Programs, Director of the Sequoyah Institute/Center for Tribal Studies, the founder and advisor of the university’s President’s Leadership Class and its Model United Nations program.

From 1982 through 2003, President Betz worked for and with the United Nations on Middle East issues. He founded and chaired the International Coordinating Committee on the Question of Palestine (ICCP), a UN-affiliated non-governmental organization (NGO) network pursuing peace in the Middle East based on UN resolutions.

Central Oklahoma is in its fourth year as a member of the Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association.

The MIAA, a 14-member conference of NCAA Division II insti-tutions in Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska and Oklahoma, was first or-ganized in 1912 as the Missouri Intercollegiate Athletic Association.

Over the past 100 years, the MIAA has gained the reputation of be-ing one of the top NCAA Division II conferences in the nation. MIAA schools have won 15 NCAA team championships and, since 1964, over 160 individual national titles.

The MIAA currently conducts champi-onships in eight sports for men and nine for women.

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 vol-leyball, 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 confer-ence changed its name from the Missouri Intercollegiate Athletic Association to the Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics As-sociation.

The decision to make the change origi-nated in 1989, when Pittsburg State and Washburn became the first schools outside the state of Missouri to gain membership in the MIAA.

The conference was first organized in 1912 with 14 member institu-tions. Of those original members, Central Missouri, Truman State and Northwest Missouri State 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 Missouri, Truman (at the time known as Northeast Missouri

Mid-AMeriCA interCOllegiAte AthletiCs AssOCiAtiOn State), Northwest Missouri, Southeast Missouri State and Southwest Missouri State (now Missouri State).

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

Ken Jones became the first full-time commissioner of the MIAA in 1981 and would be in the position for 16 years, retiring in 1997. Ralph McFillen succeeded Jones, serving 10 years before his retirement in

2007.Jim Johnson succeeded McFillen in July

of that year and served as commissioner until September of 2010, when Dr. Bob Bo-erigter took over.

Southwest Baptist brought membership back to eight schools in 1986, before the major expansion of the conference in 1989. Pittsburg State, Washburn, Missouri South-ern and Missouri Western began competi-tion in the 1989-90 season.

Southeast Missouri State left the MIAA following the 1990-91 season and was re-placed by Emporia State in the 1991-92 season.

Missouri-St. Louis departed the MIAA in 1996, Missouri-Rolla left in 2005 and Lincoln forfeited its membership in 1999. Fort Hays State joined the MIAA in 2006,

Nebraska-Omaha entered the league in 2008 and Lincoln re-joined the conference in 2010.

UCO, Lindenwood, Nebraska-Kearney and Northeastern State all become league members with the start of the 2012-13 academic year.

Nebraska-Omaha left the league in 2011 and Truman State did the same in 2013, which leaves the conference with 14 schools. Lincoln and SBU are associate members who compete in women’s basketball.
