DR. LEO M. LAMBERTELON UNIVERSITY PRESIDENT Leo M. Lambert became Elon’s eighth president in January 1999. Very early in his tenure, his responsibilities included completing the Elon Vision strategic plan, including the construc-tion of Rhodes Stadium and the opening of Belk Library. Today, Lambert’s work focuses on an ambitious new strategic vision which aims to place Elon, with a national reputation for engaged learning, among the nation’s best small, selective, private universities. Substantial progress has been achieved toward realizing this goal. The ac-ademic climate of the campus has been strengthened by endowed programs such as the Kenan Honors Fellowships, the Baird Pulitzer Prize Lectures and the Isabella Cannon Distinguished Visiting Professorship in Leadership. He has led efforts to more than double expenditures for library acquisitions, increase faculty sabbatical opportunities and improve Elon’s position in Division I athletics by joining the Southern Conference. Lambert has been committed to further strengthening Elon’s renowned programs of expe-

riential learning, and the results have included top national rankings for Elon’s study abroad, volunteer service, undergraduate research and leadership programs. Lambert has provided national leadership in efforts such as Campus Compact and Project Pericles, which encourage students to become civically engaged in their communities. During his tenure, the Martha and Spencer Love School of Business has at-tained AACSB International accreditation, the School of Communications has achieved accreditation by ACEJMC and the Elon University School of Law, which opened in Greensboro in 2006, achieved American Bar Association provisional approval in 2008. Recent new campus facilities have included the Ernest A. Koury Sr. Business Center, the Academic Village, The Colonnades dining hall and residence halls, The Oaks residence complex and Belk Track and White Field. Lambert has written extensively about post-secondary education and is co-editor of a book about university teaching that was published by the Syracuse University Press in 2005. His alma mater, the State University of New York, awarded him an honorary doctorate of human letters in 2002 in recognition of exceptional achievements in higher education. Lambert’s greatest honor in life, in collaboration with his wife Laurie, has been the privilege of parenting two daughters, Cal-lie, a student at the Wake Forest University School of Medicine, and Mollie, a student at Furman University.

DR. GERALD FRANCISELON UNIVERSITY PROVOST/VP FOR ACADEMIC AFFAIRS Dr. Gerald (Gerry) Francis is provost and vice president for academic affairs at Elon Uni-versity. As provost, he is second in command, responsible for the academic program, admis-sions and student life. Francis received his undergraduate and graduate degrees from Appalachian State Univer-sity, where he was a member of the basketball team. He earned a doctorate in mathematics at Virginia Polytechnic Institute (Virginia Tech). Francis came to Elon in 1974 as a professor in the department of mathematics. During his tenure, he received the Daniels-Danieley Award as Elon’s most outstanding teacher. In 1983, he joined the administrative ranks as dean of academic affairs, and was later named vice presi-dent before assuming his current position in 1994.

During his years at Elon, the institution has doubled in size, increased quality among faculty and students and made substan-tial facilities improvements. Francis is a native of Arlington, Va., and is married to Burlington native Laine Neese Francis. His daughter Kristen and her husband James McCarthy are both Elon alums and have two children, Jay and Gerry, and reside in Elon.

DAVE BLANKDIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS Dave Blank begins his third year as the Elon University Director of Athletics for the 2008-09 campaign, following another year of notable improvement for the Phoenix in terms of ath-letic success, academic progress, marketing and fundraising. During his first two years at Elon, he ignited ambitious expansions in the Department of Athletics – including a restructuring of the Phoenix Club with emphasis on funding scholar-ships for student-athletes, a restructuring of the academic assistance program for athletics in conjunction with the Office of the Provost and a plan for future facility improvements, includ-ing an already completed renovation of the Latham Park baseball facility. In June 2008, Blank was appointed to serve on the NCAA Division I Championships/Sports Management Cabinet – a 31-member cabinet consisting of athletics directors, senior woman administrators and faculty athletic representatives representing the nation’s multi-sport Division I conferences which will help shape the future of Division I athletics.

Under Blank’s direction, 12 of Elon’s 16 teams fashioned higher Southern Conference finishes during the 2007-08 season than they did during the 2006-07 campaign. What makes that fact even more impressive is that 10 Phoenix squads achieved a higher SoCon finish during the 2006-07 season than they did during the previous campaign. In 2007-08, the Phoenix baseball team went on to claim SoCon outright regular season and tournament crowns en route to making the program’s third NCAA regional appearance in seven seasons. Also, Elon fell one mere victory shy of capturing the SoCon’s automatic NCAA postseason bid in football, men’s basketball and men’s tennis. During the 2006-07 season, Elon notched its first winning record in men’s soccer at the Division I level and posted SoCon outright regular season and tournament titles and an NCAA postseason appearance in men’s tennis. The Phoenix men’s soccer (2006), football (2007 and 2008), men’s tennis (2007 and 2008) and baseball (2008) teams have all earned national rankings during Blank’s time at Elon. Blank became the Elon Director of Athletics in 2006 after spending six years as the Director of Athletics at Drake University. At Drake, he directed an 18-sport NCAA Division I athletics program that competes in the Missouri Valley Conference. He was responsible for the creation of a comprehensive academic assistance program. During his tenure, Drake student-athletes consistently posted a combined grade-point average of 3.0 or above. Also, Blank oversaw the addition of the women’s crew, women’s golf and women’s soccer programs at Drake. Facility enhancements were a priority, including upgrades in the softball complex, renovation of the strength and conditioning facilities and new locker rooms for several sports. Under Blank’s guidance, Drake completed a $17 million renovation of Drake Stadium, which hosts football, soccer and track and field events as well as the nationally known Drake Relays. He restructured the Bulldog Club, which provides financial support for Drake athletics, resulting in a 90-percent increase in gifts. He also enhanced the marketing of Drake athletics to generate additional exposure and corporate donations. Blank served as chairman of the Missouri Valley Conference Championship Committee and was a member of the NCAA I-AA Governance Committee and Football Issues Committee. He received Gen. Robert R. Neyland Outstanding Athletics Director accolades from the All-American Football Foundation in 2005. Before moving to Drake in 2000, Blank worked at Coastal Carolina University where he served as Assistant/Associate Direc-tor of Athletics for three years (1996-99) and Director of Athletics for one year (1999-2000). Blank directed the CINO Club, in-creasing fiscal contributions to Coastal Carolina athletics by more than 200 percent. He spearheaded efforts to raise more than $4 million to establish an intercollegiate football program at the university, which began play in 2003. Before moving into athletics administration, Blank spent eight sea-sons (1988-1996) as head men’s basketball coach at Lock Haven Uni-versity. Blank’s teams won 119 games during his tenure, making him the winningest head men’s basketball coach in Lock Haven history. He was named Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference Coach of the Year in 1989 and 1996. A native of Frostburg, Md., Blank attended Duke University for two years (1978-1980) before graduating from South Carolina in 1982 with a bachelor of science degree in business administration (finance). He earned a master of science degree in business administration from South Carolina in 1986. Blank and his wife, Leslie, are the proud parents of four children – Dexter, Samantha, Dustin and Davis.

Elon University baseball places an emphasis on the physical development of their play-ers. Under the direction of head strength and conditioning coach Aaron Walker, the squad benefits from innovative instruction and state-of-the-art facilities.

Walker, in his fourth year at Elon, heads up the Phoenix’s strength and conditioning program. Previously, he served as an assistant strength and conditioning coach at the University of North Carolina. Walker graduated from East Carolina University in 2002 with a bachelor of science degree in communications. He was a three-year starter for the Pirate football squad, starting in 36 consecutive contests, including three bowl ap-pearances.

Assisting Walker is Megan McCollum, who is in her fifth year with the Phoenix. Mc-Collum came to Elon after serving an internship at Wake Forest University where she helped implement strength and conditioning programs. McCollum earned her bache-lor’s degree from North Carolina State University in 2002. She obtained her master’s degree in sports physiology from Texas A&M University in 2004.

The Phoenix uses various strength and conditioning techniques to prepare student-ath-letes for the highest level of competition.

The Elon University Department of Athletics is proactive in ensuring the academic suc-cess of all student-athletes from their recruiting visit through graduation. Integral compo-nents of academic support for athletics include the academic enhancement program, reg-istration services, tutorial services, travel notices, recruiting visits, laptops and life skills.

Academic Enhancement Program (AEP)All freshmen and select upperclassmen participate in the Academic Enhancement Pro-gram. All student-athletes in the AEP meet with their assigned academic coordinator each week to discuss academic progress and concerns. In addition to weekly meetings, student-athletes in the AEP are required to complete monitored study hours. To accom-modate class and practice schedules, both daytime and nighttime options are available to complete monitored study hours.

Registration ServicesAll student-athletes are assigned an academic advisor through the academic advising of-fice. The academic advisor serves as the primary contact for preregistration and gradua-tion requirements and student-athletes meet with their academic advisor prior to the be-ginning of registration to determine scheduling needs. Student-athletes also meet with the academic coordinator for their sport to balance their academic schedule with athletic demands, such as in-season versus out-of-season scheduling.

Life SkillsIn addition to the academic support provided by Elon Athletics, programs are also in place to promote and enhance the student-athlete experience. Programs and speakers address topics such as freshman transition issues, health and wellness and career/graduate school preparation. The Student-Athlete Advisory Council is an organization for student-ath-letes, run by student-athletes, to provide an opportunity to serve the athletic, Elon and greater Burlington communities.

Academic SuccessPhoenix athletes continue to excel in the classroom. Last year, Elon landed two ESPN The Magazine Academic All-Americans and saw 57 student-athletes earn Academic All-Southern Conference honors.

Throughout history there is told the legend of the rare and remarkable Phoenix, a crimson and gold bird that lived 500 years. It was sleek, swift and strong — the most marvelous bird ever created by human imagination. At the end of its life, with death approaching, it built a nest in an oak tree and was consumed in flames ignited by the sun. From the ashes emerged the next Phoenix — reborn and renewed, with strength forged in fire.

Fire, too, has shaped the history of Elon Univer-sity. The disastrous fire of 1923 all but destroyed Elon. Gone were Main Building, college records, classrooms, the library and the chapel. But within days of the fire, Elon trustees set in motion the plan for Elon to rise from the ashes, stronger than ever.

The Phoenix is a powerful leader and an emblem of immortality. It is a perfect symbol for a school that is constantly renewing and recreating itself.

The Elon motto, Numen Lumen, embraces intellectual and spiritual light. And so too, throughout history, the Phoenix has served as a sym-bol of light and knowledge.

The Phoenix is timeless and unique. It perfectly describes an athletics program and an institution that are rising to new levels of excellence.

There is only one Phoenix. There is only one Elon. Catch the Fire!

SoCon Champions – 2006, 2008 Pg. ��

The Southern Conference, which entered its 88th season of intercollegiate competition in 2008, has become known as one of the nation’s leaders in emphasizing the development of the student-athlete and defining the league’s role in helping to build lifelong leaders and role models.

The Conference currently consists of 11 members in four states throughout the Southeast and sponsors 19 varsity sports and championships that produce participants for NCAA Division I Championships.

The Southern Conference is the nation’s fifth-oldest NCAA Division I collegiate athletic association. Only the Big Ten (1896), the Missouri Valley (1907), the Pacific 10 (1915) and the South-western Athletic (1920) conferences are older in terms of origination.

Throughout its history, the Southern Confer-ence has been an innovator in college athletics. The Southern Conference was the first “super con-ference” with its charter membership including the likes of Alabama, Auburn, and North Carolina. The SoCon, as it has come to be known by head-line writers throughout the country, is the league that gave birth to the three-point shot in college basketball and was the college home of such sport-ing greats as Arnold Palmer, Jerry West and Char-lie “Choo Choo” Justice.

Academic excellence has been a major part of the Southern Conference’s tradition. League ath-letes have been recognized countless times on Co-SIDA Academic All-America and district teams. A total of 19 Rhodes-Scholarship winners have been selected from the conference.

In baseball, Wake Forest advanced to the championship game of the NCAA College World Series in 1949. Demon Deacon second baseman Charles Teague was named the CWS Most Valu-able Player. The Citadel made history in 1990 by becoming the first military school to make an ap-pearance at the College World Series. The Bull-dogs were joined that season at the CWS by cur-rent conference member Georgia Southern.

One of the Southern Conference’s more fa-mous baseball alums is Duke’s Dick Groat. The Blue Devil shortstop, who was also a basketball standout, was the conference’s Athlete of the Year in 1951 and 1952. He went on to a 14-year career in the major leagues. In 1960, he was named the National League MVP after he led the league in batting with a .325 average for the World Cham-pion Pittsburgh Pirates.

Among Southern Conference alums to grace Major League Baseball fields have been Atlee Hammaker (East Tennessee State), Jeff Montgom-ery (Marshall) and Mike Ramsey (Appalachian State). Other SoCon players to go on to a career in the major leagues include Angels third baseman Dallas McPherson (The Citadel), pitchers Britt Reames (The Citadel) and Ryan Glynn (VMI) who both pitched with Oakland in 2005 and Furman’s Tom Mastny, a pitcher with the Cleveland Indians (2007).

The Southern Conference has also been a breeding ground for some of college athletics’ most recognized coaches and administrators.

Legendary basketball coaches Adolph Rupp of Kentucky and Everett Case of North Carolina State both worked the sidelines in the Southern Conference. Rupp guided the Wildcats to a 30-5 mark during the 1931 and 1932 seasons. Yet, for all his coaching accomplishments, Rupp never led Kentucky to a Southern Conference tournament championship. Case mentored the Wolfpack to six consecutive Southern Conference Tournament championships from 1947 through 1952.

Lefty Driesell coached Davidson to three Southern Conference Tournament championships in 1966, 1968 and 1969. Driesell also won the league’s Coach of the Year award four straight times from 1963 through 1966. Former Georgia Tech coach Bobby Cremins earned league Coach of the Year honors three times in the late ’70s and early ’80s while at Appalachian State and is in his first season as head coach at the College of Charleston.

Terry Holland saw his basketball coaching career take off at Davidson when he returned to his alma mater in 1970. Holland was honored as the Southern Conference Coach of the Year for three consecutive seasons from 1970-72 and led the Wildcats to the conference tournament title and an appearance in the NCAA Tournament in 1970. J. Dallas Shirley, a member of the Basketball Hall of Fame, spent 21 years as the assistant to the com-missioner and supervisor of officials in the South-ern Conference. He also served as president of the International Association Basketball Officials and the United States Olympic Basketball Committee.

Even the legendary Paul “Bear” Bryant got his coaching start in the Southern Conference as he guided the Maryland Terrapins in 1945. A legendary Southern Conference football coach is the late Frank Howard of Clemson, who guided the Tigers as a league member from 1940-52. The incomparable Howard won 69 Southern Confer-ence games which still ranks tied for fourth on the league’s all-time coaching victories list.

2009 numerical roster

Pg. �6 NCAA Regionals – 2002, 2006, 2008

Q&A WITH COACH KENNEDYYou have a good balance of young players and veterans on this team (�6 juniors or seniors and �� freshmen, red-shirt freshmen or sophomores). How does that affect your coaching style?I don’t think it affects our style of coaching at all. We have a philosophy in place that we feel has been successful and we try to recruit players that fit our system. As far as how we handle those players individually, that is where you see differences. Obviously with the younger players we are going to be more patient. It takes them longer to adjust to our system where as our older players have been there and they understand our goals and what it takes to make them attainable.

You lost some key players from last year’s SoCon Championship squad – Steven Hensley, Jesse Lewter, Chris Dove and Donny Jobe to name a few. What do you do to replace those guys? or can you replace what they brought to the team?Each of those players were special and played a huge role in our success, as did our other two seniors Matt Hill and Greg Jones. Each year teams take shape based on personnel. New leaders take over and players get better and assume greater roles. It’s our hope that our returning players learned from those guys, teach our new players to respect the history of our program and put Elon baseball first and their personal gains second. College baseball is such a team game and that’s what makes it so special.

With the loss of Hensley, your Friday night starter the past two years, who do you see stepping up to fill that slot in the weekend rotation? We have several guys that are capable. Sophomores Jimmy Reyes and Ken Ferrer both have good enough stuff to take on that role. How much have they matured from a year ago? Will they throw

enough strikes? Can they go deep into the game? All of those questions will be answered in time. Junior transfer Bobby Kennedy and junior Daniel Britt have also shown that they have enough stuff to compete for that spot. Senior Cory Harrilchak could handle Friday nights as well as any of them, but he is so important defensively as our centerfielder. We have to take care of his arm and use him wisely on the mound so that we do not hurt our team in other areas.

What about your rotation in general? You have some young pitchers there. How do you see them fitting in?We do have some young arms, but we have some very capable arms. Several of those guys pitched meaningful innings as freshmen last year, which is an added bonus. I can’t remember another start of the season when we had so many guys battling to pitch on the week-ends. Jimmy and Ken are in the mix. Daniel, Bobby and J.D. Reichenbach have all thrown well. We have a couple of freshmen in John Brebbia and Jordan Darnell who have also been impressive. Hopefully some of these guys will step up and pitch with confidence and consistancy to carry us through the season.

of the newcomers, who do you expect to make an immediate impact this season and what can we expect out of those guys?We have several new guys that have the chance to make an immediate impact. There are so many factors that will determine how their roles play out. Freshmen must adjust to the faster pace of the game, while junior college players must adjust to the style of play as well as different styles of coaching. Junior transfer Justin Hilt is a special player. He has all the tools – he runs, has very good bat speed, hits for power and has a great arm. If he adjusts well to Division I pitching, he could put up some great numbers. Bobby will make an immediate impact as he battles for a spot in the weekend rotation. Junior Hunter Wessells brings added experience and is battling for playing time. Freshman Alex Maruri had a great fall with the bat and will have a chance to impress us early in the season. Freshman Grant McCoury has a bright future as well. We are excited about these new players and look forward to watching them compete and fight for playing time.

You have plenty of key players returning this year, such as pre-season all-Americans Cory Harrilchak and Bennett Davis. What do you expect out of this core of returning guys who carried the team to the SoCon title last season?It’s hard to beat experience. There’s no question we are excited about Cory and Bennett and what they bring to the table. To expect them to put up the same type of numbers they did last season would not be fair. Both of those guys will have a very good year. They have worked so hard to try to maintain that high level of play and I believe they will be rewarded for their efforts. However, just as important will be the level of play of our other returners. These guys fly under the radar because of Cory and Bennett, but they are outstanding players. Junior Chase Austin had a great year and is so versatile and can play everywhere in the infield. Senior Dallas Tarleton is as steady as they come and has proven he can have success at this level. Senior Mike Lobacz has worked hard this fall and has been very impressive. Junior Mike Melillo continues to improve and may be on the verge of a breakout year. Junior Ryan Adams has experience and will provide depth. Senior Pat Irvine has had success at this level and has worked very hard this fall to get back to the high level of play that he showed as a freshman and sophomore. Sophomore Harry Austin impressed us last season as a red-shirt freshman and will make an impact as well. Sophomore Greg Annarummo showed signs of what’s to come as a fresh-man and continues to get better every day. Sophomore Neal Pritchard started 49 games as a freshman and will play a huge role in the success of this club. On the mound, our bullpen a year ago was primarily freshmen. Sophomores Jared Kernodle and Thomas Girdwood were terrific as freshmen, helping us go 38-3 when leading after six innings, and have a year of experience under their belt.

SoCon Champions – 2006, 2008 Pg. ��

Q&A WITH COACH KENNEDYIn your mind, what are the biggest strengths of this 200� team?Our strength will be in our line-up. We return six players that started 47 or more games a year ago. We return our top four hitters in terms of average, home runs and RBI. Add to that the experience gained from the likes of Annarummo, Lobacz and Adams (pictured right) and it’s easy to see why we think this team has a chance to do some damage offensively. We have a very nice blend of power and speed and we really think we can play different styles offensively. Everyone likes the home run and we will have some guys with some pop, but I like to run and I believe we will also be able to put pressure on our opponents.

What is the biggest question mark for this squad?Our biggest question mark will be how much we improve defensively. We made 91 errors a year ago and that’s just not acceptable. We cannot expect to play at a championship level if we do not improve defensively. In order for our pitching staff to be successful, we can-not afford to give the quality teams we play five or six outs an inning. We have addressed defense with our club and it’s up to them now to understand its importance and take owner-ship of it.

Coaches have had a season to adjust to the new scheduling format. What changes do you think that will have this year on the game, both from what you do and as a generality around the country? What did you learn about what you need to do with your squad with the way the schedule plays out now?There isn’t much change from a year ago in the way we will coach. The schedule is basi-cally the same. I think the most important phase of the game, in regards to the schedule, is how you manage your bullpen. You have to be willing to use more guys with five games a week and you have to take care of your arms in terms of not over-using relievers. From a position player standpoint, preparation is key. You have to prepare your players both mentally and physically for the grind of playing five games a week without much practice time. I love to coach, and practice is important to me. However, with this schedule, when the games start we are limited in the actual practice time we get. You play Friday, Saturday and Sunday; you take Monday as your required day off; play Tuesday and Wednesday and then you either have a practice or travel on Thursday. There is just not much time to practice once the season begins.

Speaking of the 200� schedule, you’ve set up another challenging slate which includes seven games against teams that made the 2008 NCAA Regionals. What will your team have to do to continue the success which it has had in the past against stiff competition?It’s simple. You have to play well. I know when people read this they will say “no kidding,” but I believe that if you play well and play with some consistency then you put yourself in position to be successful against anyone you play. Baseball is unique in that you have to play the game and not so much your opponent. Execution is so important – throwing strikes, playing good defense, moving runners, getting runners in, two-out hits, etc. The teams that do that consistently win more games.

Samford is new to the SoCon this season. With the addition of three more league games, bringing the total to �0 SoCon contests, how does that affect your schedule? Does it put more emphasis on non-conference games to work towards an at-large bid if you do not win the SoCon Tournament? or do the league games mean that much more now?It limits your opportunities for non-conference weekends. I believe it puts added emphasis on mid-week scheduling in terms of RPI. You’re missing three RPI opportunities from outside of league play. So now you’re forced to play some great programs mid-week in order to keep your RPI high enough to give you a chance at a potential at-large bid. You cannot impact your RPI inside the league. It is what it is. But if your goal is to play in June you have to look at how you schedule mid-week. In terms of importance, I don’t think in the SoCon you can separate conference games from non-conference games. You have to schedule mid-week in regards to RPI and in conference play, in order to get an at-large bid, you cannot finish third or lower. If that happens, you are forced to win the conference tournament and the automatic bid in order to participate in postseason play.

The addition of another SoCon series also forces you to start conference games very early this year. In the second weekend of the season your team travels to Appalachian State. How do you prepare a team to play such important games that early in the year?It’s hard. I don’t think it’s a challenge in terms of mentally preparing our players. They know the significance. You have to be able to have your pitchers’ pitch count higher than normal at that time in the season or you’re going to have to be willing to use more guys out of the bullpen. You don’t want to run the risk of hurting a guy that early in the season, yet one game at the end of the season often separates a conference champion from a second-place team. It would be nice to have another week of non-conference games to get ready for the start of the conference season, but we will do what’s best for our kids..

Pg. �8 NCAA Regionals – 2002, 2006, 2008

Winning baseball continues to be the tradition for Mike Kennedy and the Elon University Phoenix as the skipper begins his 13th season as head coach. His previous 12 Elon teams have collected 11 winning records and 10 campaigns of 30 or more victories, all while consistently playing against many of the country’s finest programs. His 2006 squad set a new school record with 45 victories while the 2008 team fell just one win shy of that mark and captured the program’s first NCAA Division I league tournament title. With each victory tallied, Kennedy adds to his record for the most wins by an Elon baseball coach that he set in 2003. In his 12 seasons, Kennedy has guided the Phoenix to 395 victories. In the last 10 seasons, Elon has had 18 victories over opponents ranked in the top-25. In his tenure, Kennedy has led his program to 36 victories over ACC opponents, including records of 5-4 in 2000, 4-4 in 2002, and 5-4 in 2003. Prior to the start of the season, Kennedy was selected to serve as the pitching coach for USA Baseball’s National Team (Collegiate) during the summer of 2009. With USA Baseball Kennedy will be reunited with his mentor Rick Jones, a former Elon head coach and the current skipper at Tulane. Kennedy’s 2008 team claimed its second Southern Conference regular season title in three years after posting a 19-8 league mark and a 44-18 overall re-cord. The team also won its first-ever SoCon Tournament title, cruising through the league’s showcase to earn its third NCAA Regional bid. Kennedy’s teams have now posted at least 30 victories in each of their nine official NCAA Division I seasons. During the 2008 season, the Phoenix defeated fourth-ranked North Carolina by a 2-0 score – the program’s 18th victory over a top-25 foe since the beginning of the 1999 season. With a good season came the expected accolades as Kennedy was named the Southern Conference’s Coach of the Year by both his peers and the league’s media. Elon also boasted the league’s Pitcher of the Year in Steven Hensley, the league’s Freshman of the Year in Thomas Girdwood and five players who collected all-league accolades. Hensley was also honored as an All-American, the first for Elon at the NCAA Division I level, while Girdwood was named a Freshman All-American. In 2007, the 32-29 Phoenix finished third in the Southern Conference with a 15-12 league mark. The 2007 campaign saw Elon pick up three victories over teams ranked in the top-25 – #11 Miami, #17 Clemson and #24 College of Charleston. Elon set a new attendance mark during the 2007 season as well, drawing 1,811 fans to witness the Phoenix host the

#1-ranked North Carolina Tar Heels. It was the second time during the season that Elon set a new attendance mark. Earlier in the year, 1,421 fans turned out to watch the Phoenix take on top-ranked South Carolina at Latham Park, the first time that a #1-ranked team had ever visited Elon in any sport at the NCAA Division I level. The 2007 squad also featured two players that earned all-conference accolades.

In 2006, Kennedy led his team to its first-ever Southern Conference regular season title with a 21-6 league record. The team also collected its second NCAA Division I Tournament berth in five seasons, participating in the Clemson Regional as the number two seed. In the regional’s opening game, the Phoenix knocked off third-seeded Mississippi State by a 5-4 margin for the first NCAA Division I Tournament victory in any sport at Elon. Kennedy also led his team to its first-ever NCAA Division I national ranking as the Phoenix appeared at #25 in Baseball America’s poll on May 22. The 2006 squad also earned a win over a top-25 team, defeating #14 South Carolina. For his efforts, Kennedy was honored as the 2006 SoCon Coach of the Year while five

Phoenix players earned all-conference recognition. Elon also boasted the 2006 SoCon Freshman of the Year in Steven Hensley.

In 2005, the skipper paced his Phoenix to a 32-25 overall record and an 18-12 Southern Conference mark, good enough to tie for third place in the 11-team league. Two members of that squad earned All-Southern Conference distinc-

tion. The 2005 Phoenix squad claimed wins over a pair of nationally-ranked opponents – #6 North Carolina and #22 Coastal Carolina (twice) – as well as SEC member Auburn.

In 2004, Elon’s first year in the Southern Conference, Kennedy led his Phoenix to a 31-28 overall record and a 17-13 conference mark to finish fourth in the league. Four different players were honored with all-conference acco-lades.

The 2003 campaign was one for the record books. On the heels of the university’s first-ever at-large bid to an NCAA Division I tournament in any sport, Kennedy, a 1991 Elon graduate, made his mark by putting his name at the top of the list of Elon’s all-time winningest coaches. With a 19-4 victory over Liberty, Kennedy set the record for most wins by an Elon baseball coach, claiming his 197th victory at the helm of the program. What makes that feat even more impressive is that it was accomplished

while Elon completed the transition from the NCAA Division II ranks to its current NCAA Division I classifi-cation.

With an overall record of 34-23-2 (12-7 in the Big South, tying for second place), Kennedy’s 2003 club matched its 34 wins from the previous season in which the Phoenix advanced to the Clemson Regional of the NCAA Tournament. For the fifth consecutive year, Kennedy guided his squad to a triumph over a nationally-ranked top-20 opponent. With victories over #7 Wake Forest, #14 Clemson and #22 North Carolina, the Phoenix defeated three top-25 teams for the second consecutive season. In Elon’s historic 100th season of baseball celebrated in 2002, Kennedy’s squad compiled a record of 34-23, including a 13-8 mark in the Big South Conference, good enough for second place in the league. In just its third official season of Division I baseball, the Phoenix received an at-large bid to the NCAA Tourna-ment and competed in the Clemson Regional. In Elon’s run to the regional, the Phoenix posted impressive victories over #1 Clemson, #10 Wake Forest and #20 East Carolina. The Phoenix fell one out shy of recording a three-game sweep at defending national champion Miami that season. With the 2002 team’s trip to the NCAA Regional, Kennedy has been a part of championship play at each level of Elon’s baseball success. As a catcher, he helped lead Elon to the 1989 NAIA World Series in Lewiston, Idaho. In 1997, Kennedy, in his first campaign at the helm, coached Elon to a runner-up finish in the NCAA Division II South Central Regional in Alabama. His 2001 club amassed a 30-27 record, including a 12-9 conference slate to place fourth in the Big South. Kennedy guided his team to an impressive 17-8 mark at home, including a three-game sweep of Atlantic Coast Conference foe Maryland. The Phoenix finished with a 6-4 record against ACC competition that year.

The 2000 squad amassed a 33-25 record (11-10 in the Big South/tied for 4th) while starting as many as seven freshman and sophomore position players. Despite the youth movement, the team was more than competitive as proven by a 7-5 win at #5 South Carolina, which later spent more time ranked #1 than any other team that season. In 1999, Elon beat then-#1 and eventual national champion Miami. In 1998, Kennedy posted a winning 26-22 ledger during his second season as head coach and the institution’s first during its two-year transition to the NCAA Division I level. In 1997, Kennedy guided his first Elon club to a 34-16 slate, a South Atlantic Conference regular season title, a berth in the NCAA Division II South Central Regional championship game and a final ranking of 14th in the country. For his efforts, Kennedy was named South Atlantic Conference Coach of the Year. In the South Central Regional, Elon suffered an opening-round loss to Central Oklahoma, but rebounded to capture two-straight victories before battling within three outs of qualifying for the Division II College World Series, falling 7-5 to Central Oklahoma in the final. For the former Elon catcher, it was a fitting start to a coaching career at his alma mater. After serving the program as a volunteer and graduate assistant coach for four seasons, Kennedy was named to the head coach post on Sept. 12, 1996. In the 10 seasons (1997, 2000-08) that Elon players have been eligible for postseason honors, Kennedy has coached 19 first team all-conference honorees, 22 second teamers, 19 conference all-tournament selections, nine all-region players, three all-region tournament picks, seven all-state honorees, two league Freshmen of the Year, two Freshman All-Americans and two academic All-Americans. He has worked with 25 players — 23 as head coach — who have gone on to play professional baseball. A native of Fayetteville, N.C., Kennedy was a two-time honorable mention All-American catcher for Elon from 1988-1990. He experienced 102 victories during his career, as Elon posted a .756 winning percentage his last two years. The career .311 hitter batted .321 with seven homers and 36 RBI during Elon’s 1990 NAIA District 26 championship season. He also collected 15 doubles that year and was named first team All-South Atlantic Conference, first team all-district and honorable mention All-American. He also earned all-conference, all-district, all-area and honorable mention All-American honors during the 1989 season, hitting .289 with 32 RBI as Elon finished 36-9. For his career, Kennedy appeared in 115 games, batting .311 with 26 doubles, 13 home runs and 78 RBI. Kennedy signed with the Oakland Athletics organization as a ninth-round selection in the 1990 amateur draft, making stops in Scottsdale, Ariz., Medford, Ore. and Modesto, Calif. Prior to becoming head coach, Kennedy spent four seasons as Elon’s pitching coach. The pitching staff finished among the country’s top-20 NCAA-II teams in ERA four years — sixth in 1993, third in 1994, 18th in 1996 and fifth in 1997. Active in his profession, Kennedy is a frequent speaker and clinician at various schools and camps throughout the region. He and his wife, Liz, make their home in Burlington and have a daughter, Blair, and a son, Ryan.

Pg. 20 NCAA Regionals – 2002, 2006, 2008

Greg Starbuck enters his 11th season on the Elon coaching staff and his fifth as the associate head coach to Mike Kennedy.

SoCon Champions – 2006, 2008 Pg. ��

Walter C. Latham Park, Elon’s baseball facility, was dedicated on Saturday, April 28, 2001, in honor of Walter C. Latham, an Elon alumnus. The dedication was followed by Elon’s doubleheader against Radford University. The Phoenix swept the two games that day by scores of 10-2 and 7-6. Latham (1909-2000) came to Elon in 1928 with a dream to accomplish what those before him had not. He wanted to play college ball and earn a college degree. Elon offered him that opportunity.

He became the first-ever four-sport letterman at Elon and a member of the Elon Sports Hall of Fame. Latham excelled in the classroom as well. Twice he was forced to suspend his studies in order to help support his family in Bath, N.C. Each time he returned and, in 1934, he earned his degree. Latham was a coach and educator for nearly 50 years in North Carolina. The ceremonies began with a welcome from then-Elon Director of Athletics Alan J. White and in-cluded a plaque unveiling by the Latham family. Dr. Bryan Latham, Walter’s son who made Latham Park possible, threw out the ceremonial first pitch. The playing field is known as Newsome Field and was dedicated on April 29, 1978 in honor of Wilburn E. “Webb” Newsome who played football and baseball and boxed at Elon. Newsome was inducted into the Elon Hall of Fame in 1975. Featuring a plush Bermuda grass surface, a computerized sprinkler system, batting cages, a modern-ized press box and major league-style dugouts, Latham Park has quickly gained a reputation as being one of the finest small university baseball facilities in not only the Southern Conference, but also the country. Measuring 317 feet down the leftfield line, 385 feet to centerfield and 328 feet down the rightfield line, the spacious confines of Latham Park have played host to some of the most memorable games and individual performances in the history of Elon baseball. In 2005, Latham Park was adorned with lights to allow the Phoenix to play night games on campus that the community could enjoy. The first game under the new lights was played on April 9, 2005

against eventual Southern Conference tournament champion Furman. Elon won that game by a 21-10 score. On April 29, 2006, Elon drew its first crowd of over 1,000 spectators to Latham Park. On that night, 1,051 fans were treated to a thrilling 7-6 victory by Elon over SoCon foe Georgia Southern. On May 8, 2007, the Phoenix played in front of the largest crowd to ever witness a game at the facility as 1,811 fans were on hand when Elon hosted then-#4 North Carolina. Earlier that season, 1,421 fans flocked to Latham Park to watch the Phoenix take on South Carolina – the nation’s top-ranked team at the time. The Phoenix set a new standard for average home attendance in 2008 as an average of 501 fans watched Elon at Latham Park.

2008 superlatives

SoCon Champions – 2006, 2008 Pg. ��

The 2008 baseball campaign marked yet another historically successful one for head coach Mike Kennedy and his Phoenix program. Elon finished 44-18 – one victory shy of equaling the school record for victories in a season, won the 2008 Southern Conference regular season and tournament titles and advanced to the NCAA Regionals for the second time in three years. The Southern Conference regular season crown marked the Phoenix’s second outright in three years while the tournament title was the first since the Phoenix joined the NCAA Division I level nine years ago. Elon started hot out of the gate, winning its first 10 contests and 17 of its first 20 games overall. The 10-game winning streak marked the program’s longest such streak since the 2000 team reeled off 14 consecutive victories. Throughout the season, Elon never dropped more than three games in a row and tallied three streaks of at least six consecutive victories. The Phoenix offense was one of the most prolific, if not the most prolific, in school history. The 2008 squad shattered club records for runs scored

(545; old record was 491 in 2006), hits (682; old record was 653 in 2006), doubles (135; old record was 133 in 2006), home runs (80; old record was 68 in 2006) and RBI (495; old record was 449 in 2006). This club’s 24 triples fell just shy of the record of 25 set by the 1982 team and the 155 stolen bases came within nine of the school record 164 swiped in 1985. On the mound, the Phoenix also established a new school mark with 467 strikeouts to easily eclipse the 441 thrown in 2001. Junior Steven Hensley left his mark on the Elon record book, setting a new milestone with 302 career strikeouts. Elon is known for knocking off quality opponents every season and 2008 was no different. The Phoenix earned victories over UNC Wilmington and East Carolina, both of which spent time in the top-25 throughout the season, as well as two wins over Atlantic Coast Conference foe Wake Forest. The most notable win, how-ever, came when Elon visited then-fourth-ranked North Carolina and shutout the Tar Heels 2-0. It represented the Phoenix’s 18th victory over a top-25 team in 10 years and the first time an Elon team had ever shutout a top-25 foe. The Phoenix captured the SoCon regular season championship with a 19-8 league mark and advanced through its conference tournament bracket with impressive wins over Wofford (21-12), Georgia Southern (16-5) and UNC Greensboro (12-4) to earn a first-ever trip to the title game. In front of a regional television

audience, the Phoenix claimed a decisive 17-8 triumph in the tourney final over College of Charleston who had twice defeated Elon during the regular season. Elon sprinted through the tournament, obliterating records for the league’s showcase. Among the SoCon Tournament milestones set were total runs scored (66, surpassing the mark of 51 by Western Carolina in 1991), total bases (114, equaling the mark set by Georgia Southern in 1992), RBI (64, surpassing the mark of 43 set by Western Carolina in 1988 and tied by Georgia Southern in 1992), highest batting average (.423, surpassing the mark of .410 set by Western Carolina in 1986), most runs in an inning (15 in the sixth inning vs. Wofford, surpassing the 13 by Appalachian State vs. Marshall in 1989), RBI in a game (21 vs. Wofford, equaling the mark set by Western Carolina vs. The Citadel in 1988), individual runs (13 by junior Cory Harrilchak, equaling the mark set by David Beckley of The Citadel in 1996) and individual hits in a game (five by Harrilchak vs. College of Charleston, equaling the mark set eight other times). With the SoCon Tournament crown, the Phoenix secured the league’s automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament for the program’s third regional trip in seven years. On Memorial Day, Elon learned that it would head to Cary, N.C. to participate as the third seed in the Cary Regional hosted by North Carolina. In its NCAA opener, Elon took on a familiar foe in UNC Wilmington, but fell short as the Seahawks knocked off the Phoenix 5-2. Against Mount St. Mary’s, Elon rebounded to take a 6-3 decision and set up a rematch with UNCW. The Phoenix’s season would end there though; as the Seahawks staged a late rally to pick up a 15-11 win over Elon. Individually, numerous Elon players were honored throughout the season. During the season, three Phoenix pitchers were named either SoCon Pitcher of the Week or SoCon Pitcher of the Month. The lone weekly award went to freshman Jimmy Reyes. The monthly honors went to Hensley twice and senior Jesse Lewter once. Elon also had one SoCon Player of the Week as Harrilchak nailed down that accolade. Following the regular season, the SoCon’s coaches handed out their all-conference awards. Hensley was honored for a stellar season with Pitcher of the Year honors while closer Thomas Girdwood earned Freshman of the Year distinction. Both Hensley and Girdwood were joined as First Team All-SoCon picks by Harrilchak, who earned a spot as an outfielder. Kennedy was also rewarded by his peers, claiming his second SoCon Coach of the Year honor in three years. The media also awarded all-conference honors in baseball, recognizing Hensley as its SoCon Pitcher of the Year and Kennedy as its Coach of the Year. Hensley, Harrilchak and Girdwood were again first team selections while juniors Bennett Davis (third base) and Dallas Tarleton (catcher) both claimed spots on the second team. Hensley became Elon’s first all-American at the NCAA Division I level when he was selected to as a Louisville Slugger TPX Third Team All-American. Girdwood was named to two freshman all-America teams, claiming Louisville Slugger Freshmen All-American and Second Team All-Freshman All-America honors by the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association. All-State honors were bestowed upon Hensley and Harrilchak, who fashioned a .410 batting average to become the first Elon player to eclipse the .400 single-season plateau since 1988. In early June, three Phoenix players were chosen in the 2008 Major League Baseball First-Year Player Draft – the most ever selected from Elon in one draft. Hensley became the school’s highest-ever June selection, being picked by the Seattle Mariners in the fourth round. Junior outfielder Chris Dove was the next drafted. Dove, an Academic All-District honoree, came off the board in the 26th round as a Texas Rangers selection. Finally, senior second baseman Donny Jobe, an All-Cary Regional honoree, was taken by the Mariners in the 44th round.
