Location The University of Southern was founded on the banks of the Ohio River in Evansville in 1965. USI is a comfortable drive from the major metropolitan centers of Indianapolis, Cincinnati, Louisville, Nashville, and St. Louis.

The Campus The Nursing and Health Professions Center, Science and Wright Administration Building, the Education Center, and the Orr Center are located on the north side of campus. Rice Library, the Univer- sity Center, the Liberal Arts Center, the Technology Center, and the Business and Engineering Center, now under construction, form the quadrangle in the center of campus. The Physical Activities Center and the Recreation and Fitness Center, which is getting a substantial addition, are located east of the University Boulevard, a major thoroughfare through campus. Apartment buildings and residence halls are home to 3,000 students who live on campus.

Academic Life The University enrolls 9,939 students and offers undergraduate majors in 70 areas of study. An ever-increasing number of post- graduate programs also are available to students who wish to continue their education. Opportunities are available for service learning, study abroad, and internships.

Campus Life Outside the classroom, students have opportunities to participate in more than 90 organizations offering co-curricular and extra- curricular activities. Special interest clubs, student government, sororities and fraternities, music and drama groups, and other organizations enable the students to enjoy and contribute to cam- pus life.

Residence Life The more than 3,000 students living on campus have their choice of two types of housing. Students can live in standard apartments or in suite-style housing in residence halls which have amenities such as Internet connections, wireless Internet, and cable televi- sion. Computer labs, laundromats, a convenience store, outdoor and indoor recreation areas, and student lounges contribute to an efficient living environment that has proven to be overwhelmingly popular to students. Meal plans also are available at the Univer- sity Center, which is located in the center of campus.

Rick Herdes Men's Basketball Head Coach

Rick Herdes (Noble, Illinois) has USI basketball fans looking forward to each March. Herdes has steered the Screaming Eagles to five NCAA Division II Tournament appearances and a 173-52 (.768) overall record during his seven years.

USI, under Herdes' direction both as a head coach and assistant, has reached the 20-win mark 15th times in 16 years and won 25-or-more games five times in last seven season.

In 2006-07, Herdes was named the GLVC Coach of the Year after guiding the Eagles to a 29-6 overall record, 14-5 GLVC mark, and their second GLVC Tournament title in three seasons. The Eagles also captured the GLVC West Division crown for a third straight season and became the first team to win three Disney Division II Tip-Off Classic crowns.

Herdes' Eagles also advanced to the semifinals of the NCAA II Great Lakes Region Tournament for the fifth consecutive season. He also has won more games in six years at USI than any coach in the history of the program.

The 2005-06 version of Herdes' Screaming Eagles was 27-7 over- all, tied for first in the GLVC West Division, won the Disney Division II Tip-Off Classic, and advanced to the NCAA Division II Great Lakes Regional Final for the third time in four seasons. He also directed the team to its 14th straight 20-win season and the fourth straight year with 25-or-more wins.

The 29 wins in 2006-07 has USI ranked seventh among NCAA Division I, II, and III men's basketball programs with 25.9 victories per season since 1992-93.

In 2004-05, Herdes' Eagles won the program’s first-ever GLVC Tourna- ment championship and the ninth conference regular-season champi- onship. USI's 17-game winning streak was the longest in the history of the program. The 18-2 league record is tied for first all-time in the his- tory of the program and third all-time in the GLVC for victories in a year.

During 2003-04, Herdes directed the Screaming Eagles back to Divi- sion II's center stage as the NCAA II Elite Eight finalists and the Great Lakes Regional Champions. He was named the Division II Bulletin Coach of the Month for December when he led the Screaming Eagles to an 11-0 record last year and to the program's seventh NUMBER ONE ranking in 10 seasons. Herdes' Eagles also fin- ished the season one win short of the school record with a 28-7 overall mark.

In his second season at the helm of the men's basketball program, Herdes took the Screaming Eagles back to the big dance and to within three-point range of the NCAA Division II Elite Eight.

Herdes directed the Eagles to a 25-7 overall record, a 16-4 mark in the GLVC, and the Great Lakes Regional finals after defeating #1-ranked Michigan Tech University in the semifinals. The squad, which also boasted an honorable mention All- American, two All-Region performers, and three All-GLVC players, advanced in the Sweet 16 of the national tournament for the seventh time in nine seasons.

In his first season at the helm, Herdes had a record-tying year. The Eagles posted a 22-8 overall record, tying the USI record for wins by a first-year coach. He also led the Eagles to a fourth-place finish in the Great Lakes Valley Conference with a 14-6 mark, advancing to the semifinals of the league's post-season tournament.

Herdes had been with USI for nine seasons as an associ- ate head coach and assistant coach before being tapped for the top position in 2001. The native of Noble, Illinois, is widely known as one of the best recruiters and top coaches in Division II basketball. The Eagles’ successes since Herdes’ arrival reflect his abilities.

In his nine seasons as an assistant at USI, Herdes helped direct the Eagles to a 231-46 overall record (.833), the 1995 NCAA II National Championship, the 1994 NCAA II National Championship game, three Great Lakes Valley Confer- ence championships, nine consecutive NCAA II Tournament appearances, and nine straight 20-win seasons. USI has averaged over 25 victories a season since 1993-94.

USI’s point man on the recruiting trail, Herdes brought in nearly all of the key players who contributed to USI becoming a national power in Division II. Some of those key recruits were two-time NABC/NCAA Division II Player of the Year Stan Gouard, All-American and GLVC Player of the Year Chad Gilbert, Division II Bulletin All-American Jeremy Pearson, and 2001 first team All-American Derrick Lyons.

Herdes came to USI from Southern Illinois University at Edwardsville, where he was an assistant from 1986 to 1992. While at SIUE, Herdes helped Head Coach Larry Graham lead the Cougars to a 127-56 (.694) record and three NCAA Tournament appearances. He was responsible for coordinating and recruiting, and he was the academic advisor to the basketball team and director of summer camps and fundraising events.

In 22 collegiate basketball seasons, the programs Herdes has been involved with have a .776 winning percentage (531- 153).

In 1991 and 1992 at SIUE, he was the head coach for the Illinois Prairie State Games, Southern Open Men’s Division. His 1992 team received the silver medal.

Prior to working at SIUE, Herdes was an assistant basketball coach and physical education instructor at Lawrenceville (Illinois) High School, where he worked for Ron Felling, a former Indiana University assistant coach. LHS was the Illinois Class A State Champion in 1982 and 1983 and had a 68-game winning streak. Herdes was inducted into the Illinois High School Athletic Association Hall of Fame in 1998.

Herdes graduated from Graceland College in 1980 with a bachelor’s degree in education. As a player, he led Lincoln Trail College to a ninth-place finish in the national tournament and helped lead Graceland to its first-ever appearance in the NAIA Tournament.

Herdes and his wife Sarah reside in Evansville with his two children, a daughter Taylor (15) and a son Connor (12).

2008-09 men’s basketball media guide www.usi.edu/sports 34 Evansville, Indiana . . . A CITY with urban attractions and hometown friendliness Situated on the banks of the Ohio River, Evansville is a mid- sized city that welcomes USI Students and offers them plenty of things to do. Roberts Stadium and the Victory Theatre at- tract students to concerts by entertainers like Nelly, Aerosmith, Kenny Chesney, Kid Rock, and Josh Goban. Traveling Broad- way shows and feature performances come to The Centre. For a relaxing walk or invigorating run, the downtown riverfront fea- tures a greenway with a wonderful view of the changing river traffic and the Evansville skyline. Movie theatres (including an IMAX) and Swonder Ice Arena draw students together for fun, activity, and fellowship. Evansville’s coffee shops, restraurants, and shopping areas also are places where like to spend time. Less than three miles from campus, shopping centers and places to eat are plentiful on both sides of the Lloyd Express- way. The Eastland Mall area on Green River Road and the commercial centers off Burkhardt Road offer more restaurants and terrific shopping. USI’s suburban location in the rolling hills of western Vanderburgh County is just minutes away from all that Evansville has to offer.
