South Dakota State will begin its sixth season playing home games at Bob Shelden Field in 2007. Located behind the Brookings High School campus on Medary Avenue, Bob Shelden Field is home to SDSU baseball along with high school, Legion and teener base- ball, and Brookings Cubs amateur baseball. Bob Shelden, which has a capacity of 1,000, has host- ed three South Dakota State American Legion Championship Tournaments (1996, 2000, 2006). While playing at Bob Shelden Field, the Jackrabbits have compiled a 38-25 record, including an 11-3 mark there last season. Of the 63 games SDSU has played at Bob Shelden Field, eight have gone , with the Jacks win- ning three of those. The facility, which boasts a left-field fence adorned with ivy, first hosted a Jackrabbit game on April 6, 2002. SDSU hosted rival USD, and played eight scoreless innings before the Jacks prevailed 1-0 in the ninth. The largest crowd to watch an SDSU game at Bob Shelden was April 16 of last year, when 416 fans turned out to see the Jacks defeat North Dakota State 10-1. It was the first Division I baseball game played in Brookings. The facility is named in honor of the former Brookings High School and SDSU athlete who died the summer after his junior year of college, 1962, at the age of 21. He was the epitome of the term student-athlete, finish- ing ninth in his class while excelling in four sports. On the diamond, Shelden threw four no-hitters for Brookings American Legion Post 74. He earned all-state honors in and football while at Brookings High, and was highly recruited by the likes of Colorado, Nebraska, Minnesota, Arizona and Oklahoma. Instead, he opted to stay home and attend South Dakota State. As a sophomore in basketball, Shelden was the starting guard on a North Central Conference championship team that finished third in the nation. Shelden set a field goal shooting record that season — one that stood into the late 1970s. He also lettered in baseball as a Jackrabbit, throwing 10 innings as a freshman. Bob Shelden Field was dedicated in 1968, and was rededi- cated in 2000. A brand new Daktronics scoreboard, featuring a state-of- the-art message center, was added in the summer of 2006.

This season will mark SDSU’s third and final year of the Division I tran- sition. It also marks the third campaign for Jackrabbit head coach Reggie Christiansen. Christiansen came to SDSU in the summer of 2004 with a tall task — take a Division II program that had a 51-88 record in the previous three years, and make it a contender while making the jump to D-I. Under Christiansen, the Jackrabbit program has made significant strides. Offensively, his 2005 and 2006 teams rank third and fourth in school history for hits.They also hold the top two spots in hit-by-pitches and sacrifices. Defensively, SDSU has prospered during the Christiansen era. A season ago, the Jackrabbits fielded .960 while turning 45 plays. Both rank second in school history. Last season, after an 0-6 start, the Jacks went 9-4 in the latter stages of March. The squad compiled a seven-game win streak, including a four- game sweep at Valparaiso (Ind.), the first such streak since 2002, when SDSU was a member of Division II. Perhaps the most remarkable note about the 2006 season was how the roster had to be assembled. Christiansen and his assistants had to bring in almost an entire bullpen to replace a senior-laden 2005 staff. In addition, four of the regular nine on Christiansen’s lineup card were fresh faces.That is paying off this year, however, as 93 percent of the offensive production of 2006 returns. Over the past two seasons, the Jackrabbits own a 40-67 record. But consider that, as a Division I participant, SDSU has lost 16 one- games. The biggest win in Christiansen’s two seasons came in 2005, when the his master’s degree in health, sport and excercise science in the summer of Jackrabbits defeated Jeff Samardzija and NCAA Tournament qualifer Notre 2004. Dame 13-7. Christiansen worked primarily with the Jayhawks’ outfielders while The Jackrabbits have also been dominant at home the past two years, assisting with the Jayhawk hitters. He was also KU's first-base coach. Under compiling a 19-5 record at Bob Shelden Field. SDSU has beaten rival North his tutelage, Kansas broke several school records and was honored by the Big Dakota State in six of its seven meetings under Christiansen in Brookings. 12 Conference. In 2004, Jayhawk hitters led the Big 12 with a .316 team Christiansen was named the sixth head coach of South Dakota State average, the fourth highest in the program's history, while setting a University’s baseball program July 19, 2004. school record with 697 hits. Kansas also shattered its team record Before coming to SDSU, the Ferndale, Calif., native spent two seasons during the Christiansen era. as a volunteer assistant at the University of Kansas. He completed work on Jayhawk head coach Ritch Price gave his endorsement of Christiansen when he was hired, saying “I'm thrilled for Reggie and for his opportunity to become a head coach at the Division I level. I compliment South Dakota State on their terrific hire of one of the finest young coaches in the country. Reggie is the perfect person to lead South Dakota State to the Division I level." Christiansen did have one year of head coaching experience before being hired at SDSU. During the 2002 season, Christiansen manned the bench at Menlo College, a Division II program in Atherton, Calif. A graduate of Menlo, he served as an assistant coach from 1997-99. He has also spent time as the head coach of Ferndale (Calif.) High School and the Eureka Falcons American Legion squad.Tenures as an assis- tant coach for two summer teams, the San Mateo Bulldogs and the Humboldt Crabs, are also on his resume. Christiansen, who will turn 32 on August 28, is married. He and his wife Amber have two sons, Ryan Ripken (3) and Reese Robinson (will be 2 in August).

Outfield Coach Pat Holmes

Pat Holmes returns for his third season as an assistant on the Jackrabbit coaching staff. Holmes will again work with the outfielders and assist Christiansen with the offense. Holmes has helped the Jacks field one of the better defensive in the Midwest, developing Korby Mintken,Tim Hanigan and Nick Adams into a superb trio. Thanks in part to Holmes, the 2006 squad compiled a .960 fielding per- centage, which is second best in school history. Born in Baytown,Texas, Holmes began his collegiate playing career with two seasons at San Jacinto Junior College in Houston.

From left to right: • ERV HUETHER (1950-1983) Huether led SDSU to the postseason twice at the Division II level, hosting the 1975 Midwest Regional. • MARK EKELAND (1984-2003) In Ekeland’s 20 years as Jackrabbit coach, he led his squads to 17 postseason appearances. In his first season, 1984, SDSU earned its only trip to the Division II College World Series. • JACK REYNOLDS (2004) Reynolds came to SDSU in 2004 on an interim basis, as Ekeland was forced to step down for health reasons. • REGGIE CHRISTIANSEN (2005-PRESENT) Christiansen, who is in his third sea- son with the Jacks, has led the program through its Division I transition, as SDSU will join the Mid-Continent Conference for the 2008 baseball season. 2007 SOUTH DAKOTA STATE UNIVERSITY BASEBALL 65 Career Records • Hitting

EARLY HISTORY Located in Brookings, SDSU was authorized in 1881 by the Territorial Legislative Assembly and serves as the state’s land-grant instution. Territorial Council member John O’Brien Scobey, failing to obtain the penitentiary for Brookings, managed to secure Dakota Agricultural College for his city. Although allocations fell short of the actual cost, the school was able to open in the fall of 1884 because the president, George Lilley, was willing to advance $500 — one- third of his salary — to finish three rooms in the new Central Building.“Old Central” was soon joined by South (1885) and North (1887), forming the nucleus of campus for a decade and a half. During the first year of operation, only preparatory classes were held. College classes started in 1885 with five teachers, 17 fresh- man and 61 preparatory students. Growth was slow and erratic for many years, but by the SOUTH DAKOTA STATE UNIVERSITY features a 16-to-1 student-to-faculty ratio. Over the turn of the 20th century there were 242 stu- past five years, the average placement rate at SDSU has been 95 percent, with placement dents. By 1990, SDSU had an enrollment of in selected majors like pharmacy and engineering approaching 100 percent. more than 9,000 students. Nearly 50,000 degrees have been granted COLLEGES ESTABLISHED nine chairs of instruction established in 1884 since the college was chartered in 1881. The structure of the college became more included agriculture, science, complex as enrollments increased.The first mathematics, English, modern languages, mil- itary tactics, veterinary science, practical busi- ness, political and domestic economy, and music. By 1907, the year the name of the institu- tion was changed to South Dakota State College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts, there were 22 departments on campus. Reorganization into the five divisions which formed the basis for the designation of colleges was completed under President Charles W. Pugsley in 1923. In 1964, when “State College” was renamed South Dakota State University, there were six colleges; today degrees are offered through these eight colleges: • Agricultural and Biological Sciences • Arts and Science • Education and Counseling TOMPKINS ALUMNI CENTER features the Aggie School Clock Tower.
