6 • 2015 Ohio Valley Conference Football Media Guide Beth DeBauche - Commissioner Elizabeth (Beth) DeBauche was named Commissioner of the Ohio Valley Conference on July 29, 2009 and began her duties with the league in September 2009. DeBauche (pronounced De-BUSH) is the seventh full-time Commissioner in the 67-plus year history of the OVC. She follows Art Guepe (1963-75), Paul Dietzel (1975-76), Bob Vanatta (1976-79), Jim Delany (1979-89), Dan Beebe (1989- 2003) and Dr. Jon A. Steinbrecher (2003-09). DeBauche is one of just eight females to be the head of a Division I Conference in 2015-16. In May 2011 the league announced the addition of Belmont University to the OVC beginning in 2012-13. The addition of Belmont brought the OVC to 12 teams, the largest membership total in league history. DeBauche served as the Chair of the Nashville Local Organizing Committee (NLOC) for the 2014 NCAA Division I Women’s Basketball Final Four; the OVC served as the host institution of the event held at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville. It was termed one of the most successful Women’s Final Four’s ever by the NCAA staff, bringing more than 30,000 people to the city and resulting in an estimated economic impact of more than 20 million dollars. It also left a long-term mark on the city and middle Tennessee through a variety of legacy programs. Under DeBauche the league started an extensive strategic planning and branding initiative which led to the development of the league’s fi rst tagline of “Inspiring Excellence Since 1948.” The project also produced the league’s fi rst 30-second PSA commercial in over a decade as well as a longer feature video highlighting the Conference. The league recently adopted an updated strategic plan that includes goals for the league through 2019. In October 2013 the League launched OVCExtra.com, a fan-focused blog which features compelling, offbeat, and so- cial media-sourced content from around the league. During the 2014-15 year the blog added a Campus Correspondents program that included students from each member institution contributing material to the blog highlighting each of their campus communities in a creative way. During the 2012-13 school DeBauche oversaw the switch of the league’s web streaming efforts to a free access model which was rebranded the OVC Digital Network (OVCDN). The new OVCDN included HD video for the fi rst time and was made available on any platform/device. The Digital Network focuses on both athletic competition as well as telling the story of OVC and its member institutions. After seeing extreme growth in viewership in its fi rst year as a free service, the OVCDN has increased its viewership in each of its three years, broadcast over 2,000 events and had a viewership of nearly one million. In October 2013 the league signed a new fi ve-year agreement with ESPN that runs through the completion of the 2017-18 season and includes a seven-game men’s basketball package as well as an eight-game ESPN3 Game of the Week football package which is done through a partnership with WebStream Sports. DeBauche also secured a deal with the CBS Sports Network to produce a four-game men’s basketball package for the fi rst time in 2013-14. During the 2014-15 academic year the OVC had the largest national men’s basketball television package in its history with three national partners in ESPN, CBS Sports Network and the American Sports Network (ASN). The package included 19 total games including at least one national appearance for each member institution. In her time with the league the OVC has seen postseason success in men’s basketball as Murray State topped Vanderbilt in the fi rst round of the NCAA Tournament in 2010, Morehead State beat Louisville in the second round in 2011 and Murray State bested Colorado State in the second round in 2012. Overall the league has won NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament games in four of the past seven years, including four-straight years (2009-12) for the fi rst-time in league history. In 2015 the league had a record fi ve men’s basketball programs compete in national postseason tournaments; those fi ve teams combined to win a record eight postseason games. Overall the OVC has had at least one victory in seven-straight postseasons, an all-time league record. In 2013 the OVC qualifi ed three teams for the Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) Playoffs for the fi rst time in league history, with each of those teams winning at least one game. Overall the OVC recorded a league-record four wins in the postseason and advanced two teams to the quarterfi nals in the same season for just the second time in league history. OVC student-athletes have continued to achieve high levels of success not only on the fi eld but also in the classroom. The league has consistently seen record number of honorees on the OVC Medal of Honor and OVC Commissioner’s Honor Roll lists during her tenure. During her tenure 63 OVC student-athletes have been named CoSIDA Academic All-Americans. DeBauche has also sponsored leadership programming for OVC student-athletes and coaches through comprehensive on-campus summits. In October 2014 the league held its fi rst Health and Safety Summit which was designed to engage team physicians and athletic trainers regarding national and conference issues. The OVC will hold a second summit in October 2015. In 2012-13 DeBauche helped spearhead a year-long celebration of the 40th Anniversary of Title IX. As part of the celebration each of the OVC’s 12-member institutions identifi ed a pioneer in women’s athletics and gender equality from their school to be honored during the year and celebrated at a home athletic event on their campus. The celebration was capped in May when those honorees were recognized at a special luncheon as part of the OVC Spring Meetings. Throughout the 2014-15 academic year the OVC celebrated diversity with through the stories of pioneers and leaders from each of our member institutions who paved and continue to pave the way for future generations of student-athletes and administrators. DeBauche currently serves on the NCAA Committee on Institutional Performance, the Committee on Academics, the NCAA Division I Leadership Council, the Division I Strategic Vision and Planning Committee and is the FCS representative to the “Coalition to Protect the Student-Athlete Experience” communications steering committee. She also serves as the chair of the National Letter of Intent (NLI) Policy and Review Committee. From August 2002 through August 2009 DeBauche, along with the vice-president of Division I, was responsible for coordinating Division I initiatives through the NCAA governance structure, as well as helping to manage the Division I agenda. Her duties included developing agendas and providing leadership for the Division I Board of Directors, Presidential Advisory Group and the Leadership Council. DeBauche has overseen the entire Division I governance structure and worked directly with the Legislative Council, the six cabinets and the supporting communications and coordination committee. She was also a liaison to governance representatives, external constituent groups and NCAA staff regarding legislative and governance activities. That role required DeBauche to have regular interaction with the Collegiate Commissioner’s Association (CCA), the CCA Compliance Coordinators, the Division I-A Athletics Directors Association, the National Association of Collegiate Women Athletics Administrators (NACWAA) and the Faculty Athletics Representatives Association (FARA). DeBauche also served as a liaison to the Women’s Basketball Issues Committee, the Presidential Oversight and Monitoring Group, the Men’s Basketball Academic Enhancement Group, the Presidential Task Force on Commercial Activity in Intercol- legiate Athletics and the Two-Year College Relations Panel. In 2008, DeBauche was named the NACWAA Conference/Organiza- tion Administrator of the Year. Prior to her work at the NCAA, DeBauche worked at the Southeastern Conference (SEC) from November 1996 through August 2002. As an as- sistant and later associate commissioner, she managed all aspects of the SEC’s rules compliance program. DeBauche provided NCAA and SEC rules interpretations, developing rules education materials and programming, conducting compliance reviews and assisting member institutions with the NCAA certifi cation program. At times during her tenure, she also served as the league’s liaison to the faculty athletics representatives, the compliance coordinators, directors of academic support and Student-Athletes Advisory Committee (SAAC) as well as the sports liaison to the leagues women’s golf, women’s tennis and women’s volleyball coaches. From 1996 to 1998 DeBauche was the Director of the National Let- ter of Intent (NLI) Program for the Collegiate Commissioners Association (CCA). In that role she was the administrator in charge of issuing all NLI rules interpretations, creating rules education materials and providing NLI rules education presentations as well as being the primary information resource for parents, student-athletes and the media. DeBauche got her start in collegiate athletics at Vanderbilt University where she was the Assistant Athletic Director for Compliance from August 1994 to November 1996. DeBauche received her Bachelor of Arts degree in history and gov- ernment from Saint Mary’s College (Ind.) and earned her Master’s Degree in communications from Notre Dame.

ROV 28 Vincent Speller 6-1 195 R-So. • Eastern Illinois could feature one of the most potent backfi elds in the FCS this season 7 Bradley Dewberry 6-0 196 So. with the return of quarterback Jalen Whitlow (792 yards rushing/12 TD) and a healthy FS 4 Pono Choy 5-10 182 R-Jr. Shepard Little (797 yds in 2014, 1,551 yds in 2013). Add to those player’s transfers Korliss 24 Johnathan Draper 6-1 180 R-Fr.

SPECIAL TEAMS • After having a wide receiver lead the nation in receiving each of the past three seasons PK 43 Nick Bruno 6-1 170 So. (Erik Lora in 2012 & 2013 / Adam Drake in 2014), Eastern Illinois will look for a new pass P 43 Nick Bruno 6-1 170 So. receiving leader this season. The Panthers return only one player with double fi gure LS 54 AJ Hantak 6-4 242 R-So. HO 14 Austin Green 6-3 210 R-So. receptions from last year in junior Anthony Taylor (23 catches for 306 yards). KR 22 Korliss Marshall 6-0 205 Jr. 26 Trey Pendergrass 5-6 165 R-Sr. • An experienced Eastern Illinois defense should be one of the high points for the Pan- PR 22 Korliss Marshall 6-0 205 Jr. thers this season as they return seven starters from last year with three other players 26 Trey Pendergrass 5-6 165 R-Sr. that started at least one game. The unit will be led by senior All-OVC players Dino Fanti, Kamu Grugier-Hill and Jourdan Wickliffe. Scheduled to move to a new position is senior Returning Starters in Bold Fedney Delphonse moving from defensive end to the Wolf linebacker slot. Key Losses WR Adam Drake • Eastern Illinois will have the home schedule play in its favor this season as the Panthers All-American; 93 catches, 1321 yards, 12 TDs will host three of the nation’s preseason Top 25 teams at O’Brien Field. EIU’s home opener TE Jeff LePak is against national runner-up Illinois State on Sept. 19 in the Mid-America Classic. The 30 catches, 317 yards, 1 TD Panthers also host both of the OVC’s FCS playoff teams from last season with Jacksonville OL Collin Seibert State and Eastern Kentucky both coming to Charleston in November. First-Team All-American RB Taylor Duncan 541 rushing yards, 5 TDs, 18 catches, 2 rec. TDs • The Panthers could make OVC history this year during the NFL season as former LB Robert Haynes Eastern Illinois quarterbacks and Walter Payton Award winners – Tony Romo and Jimmy All-OVC; 75 tackles, 13.5 TFL, 2.5 sacks Garoppolo – could face each other in fi fth week of the season. Garoppolo could get the call for the New England Patriots if a suspension to Tom Brady is upheld at its current four-game sentence.

2015 Ohio Valley Conference Football Media Guide • 105 NCAA DIVISION I FOOTBALL CHAMPIONSHIP In the fi rst title game played in Frisco, Eastern Washington erased 16-point defi cit to beat Delaware 20-19 in January 2011. The en- tertaining game certainly did not disappoint the 13,000-plus fans who attended the fi rst college football game in Frisco. A year later, the perfect blend of two passionate fan bases combined with a “local” team making it to the championship game led to a standing-room only crowd of 20,586 to watch North Dakota State beat Sam Houston State 17-6. North Dakota State quarterback Brock Jensen threw a touchdown pass right after a fake punt and then added a 1-yard run for another score following a long interception return to help the No. 2 seed Bison upset the top-seeded Bearkats, snapping Sam Houston’s 16-game win streak and preventing it from winning its fi rst national championship It was NDSU’s fi rst national championship at the Division I level to go with fi ve Division II titles, the last in 1990. The 2012 title game was a rematch between the Bison and Bearkats with North Dakota State claiming its second-straight title with a 39-13 victory. The game was played in front of 21,411 fans, including more than 10,000 wearing green and gold. Brock Jensen ran for three touchdowns and Sam Ojuri added two more scores as NDSU broke a 10-10 halftime tie as they outscored SHSU 29-3 in the second half. In 2013 North Dakota State made it three-straight titles with a convincing 35-7 victory over Towson in front of 19,802 fans. It completed a perfect 15-0 season for the Bison and tied the FCS victory for overall consecutive victories (24). Last year NDSU made it four titles in a row with a dramatic 29-27 victory over Illinois State as Carson Wentz scored from fi ve yards out with 37 seconds remaining to upend the Redbirds who had surged ahead with 1:38 to play. While the games have no doubt been the highlight, it is a week’s worth of events that have separated the event in Frisco from past championships – not to mention the great Texas hospitality. The teams arrive in Texas four days before the game starts. They’re greeted by signs and banners around town as well as great crowds at their respective team headquarters. The next day, the teams visit local elementary schools where they are welcomed by students eager to show off their school spirit for their newly adopted college teams. Later that night, the two participating teams gather for the Great Texas Barbecue Bowl that showcase the legendary Texas culture and hospitality. On Friday, teams attend the Champions Luncheon and make last-minute tweaks in game preparation. The day of the game, fans begin gathering at restaurants and parking lots surrounding Toyota Stadium and take part in Tailgate Town that features quality entertainment and even more Texas sounds, fl avors and hospitality. The local organizing committee, collectively known as Team Frisco consists of the City of Frisco, its Economic Development Corpora- tion and Convention & Visitors Bureau, Hunt Sports Group/Toyota Stadium, the Frisco Chamber of Commerce and Frisco-based Southland Conference. The Football Championship Subdivision is comprised of the conferences and institutions that compete in the NCAA Division I Football Championship - Big Sky, Big South, Colonial Athletic Association, Ivy League, Mid-Eastern Athletic, Missouri Valley Football, Northeast, Ohio Valley, Patriot League, Pioneer, Southern, Southland and the Southwestern Athletic. The Ivy League, Mid-Eastern Athletic and South- western Athletic Conference choose not to participate in the football championship. The FCS embodies a tradition of excellence through high level competition, student-athlete character and sportsmanship throughout the regular season and the championship experience.

2015 Ohio Valley Conference Football Media Guide • 115 SGT. YORK TROPHY PRESENTED BY DELTA DENTAL OF TENNESSEE In July 2007, the Nashville Sports Council and the Ohio Valley Conference announced the creation of the Sergeant York Trophy which goes to the winner of the quadrangular season football series between the four Ohio Valley Conference schools located in the state of Ten- nessee – Austin Peay State University, University of Tennessee at Martin, Tennessee State University and Tennessee Technological University. The award is only the second traveling trophy that involves more than two teams in col- lege sports; the other is the Commander in Chief’s Trophy which has been contested between Air Force, Army and Navy annually since 1972. In a close race, Tennessee State and Austin Peay shared the inaugural award, fi nishing with identical 2-1 records in 2007. Tennessee State took the trophy home with it thanks to a one-point victory in overtime over the Governors; that game was decided by a block extra point by NFL First Round Draft Pick Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie. Tennessee State has won the most Sgt. York Championships (5). The award is named in honor of Alvin C. York, the most noted Soldier of World War I. As a corporal in the 2nd battalion, 328th Infantry, in the Battle of the Meuse River-Argonne (Oct. 8, 1918), York and seven other soldiers captured 132 prisoners, was promoted to sergeant and received the Distinguished Service Cross, the French Croix de Guerre, the French Legion of Honor, the Croce di Guerra of Italy and the War Medal of Montenegro. Upon his return to the United States in 1919, he was bestowed the Congressional Medal of Honor. Following the war York returned his home in Pall Mall, Tenn. (located in north central Tennessee, 55 miles northeast of Cookeville) where he dedicated his life to improving educa- tion and facilitating educational opportunities for children in the state of Tennessee. In 1927 he established the Alvin C. York Institute after spending several years raising money for the school which opened as a private institution. That school was established, in part, to provide educational opportunities denied to the boys and girls of Fentress Country. In 1937, the Institute became a state special school after an appeal to the Tennessee State Legislature. The school, located in Jamestown, Tenn., is still in operation today. York died on Sept. 2, 1964 and the foundation which he helped establish in 1920 – The Sergeant York Patriotic Foundation – was dormant for many years. The Foundation was re- established by Lipscomb Davis, Jr. in 1992 and is currently run by Sgt. York’s grandson Gerald (U.S. Army Colonel, Retired). York’s papers are archived by Michael E. Birdwell, Ph.D., who is an associate professor of history at Tennessee Technological University, one of the four institutions that will compete for the yearly honor. After the completion of the football season, the Sergeant York Trophy is awarded to the institution with the best head-to-head record in the match-ups with their fellow Tennessee schools. In the event of a tie, the award is shared; however, the previous winner will retain the trophy if they are part of the tie. If the tie is between two other institutions, the trophy will go to the institution that has gone the most seasons without winning the trophy. The award is presented to the winning institution annually at the Pepsi Celebration of Champions which is hosted each spring by the Nashville Sports Council. The event was cre- ated in 1999 and salutes amateur and professional sports in Tennessee.
