12 2008 JACKRABBIT BASEBALL MEDIA GUIDE CCOOAACCHHIINNGG SSTTAAFFFF HEAD COACH REGGIE CHRISTIANSEN To say that Reggie Christiansen has dramati- cally changed the landscape of baseball at South Dakota State University would be an understatement. The proof – the year before Christiansen arrived, SDSU won 12 games at the Division II level. Last season, the Jacks won the third most games in school history, earning Christiansen Independent Coach of the Year honors. Christiansen has engineered one of the more remarkable turnarounds in the nation during his three seasons. His teams have set numerous school records, and garnered quite a reputation around the region. SDSU earned notoriety last February for playing Kansas in a three-game series in the Metrodome in Minneapolis, Minn. – in the middle of the night. Due to inclement weather both places, the teams finally found a safe haven under the dome, but there were already games scheduled all day. So the teams had to play a 1:30 a.m. doubleheader one day, fol- lowed by a 3:30 a.m. game the next.

The staff utilizes a variation of Olympic style lifts as well as squats, lunges, step ups, plyometric drills, presses, pulls and medicine ball throws. Power development is also a point of emphasis, accomplished by utilizing explosive lifts as well as compensatory acceleration training and complex training with traditional strength lifts. To prevent injuries, shoulder stability is critical, and the staff focus- es on rotator cuff and upper back strength to maintain it. Another way to help prevent injuries is by focusing on standing trunk work. This strengthens the abdominals and improves rotational power along with keeping athletes healthy. During the off-season, players go through a total body workout three times a week. Preseason training sessions occur three or four times week, with total body workouts once or twice a week. Through proper training principles, hard work and dedication, Jackrabbit baseball players are able to reach their full potential.

JAKE ROGERS: FROM SOUTH DAKOTA STATE TO THE MINOR LEAGUES Jake Rogers came to South Dakota state from Walla Walla Community College to play Division I baseball, hoping that he could do so well enough to attract Major League scouts. Ironically, it wasn’t his statistics, but his battling nature against one of the nation’s best pitchers that impressed the Washington Nationals. The date was March 16, and Rogers was facing off against Missouri State ace Ross Detwiler. The southpaw was being scouted by the Nats, who would take him with the sixth overall pick. Rogers’ prolonged at-bats and his ability to keep up with the lefty’s stuff impressed the Washington scouts. Three months later, in the 22nd round of the Minor League draft, the 670th pick belonged to the Nationals, and they selected Rogers. Rogers left Brookings, where he was helping coach the local American Legion squad, for Burlington, Vermont, the home of the Class A Vermont Lake Monsters. The Lewiston, Idaho, native started 59 games at second base, hitting .232 with nine doubles and 20 RBIs. The Lewiston, Idaho, native impressed the Nationals enough to earn an invitation- al to participate in winter ball this January. This spring, Rogers will be in Florida to take part in . Following that, the former Jackrabbit will likely be assigned to another team inside the Nationals farm system.

DARNELL COLES MANAGER – VERMONT LAKE MONSTERS

Jake is a nice young man, the kind that you’d want your daughter to marry. He’s easy going, ac hard “worker who made the adjustment from playing shortstop to second base for me. The more versatility a kid shows as they start to move up, the better off they will be. We knew that he could play shortstop, but watching him play second base, he’s absolutely incredible.”

REGGIE CHRISTIANSEN HEAD COACH – SOUTH DAKOTA STATE

Jake’s impact on and off the field over the past two years has been a big reason for the progress of our “program through the Division I transition. He proved that you truly can go anywhere from here, even in a baseball sense. Jake’s best playing days are in the future, he can go as far as he wants.”

JAKE ROGERS INFIELDER – WASHINGTON NATIONALS

Playing baseball at South Dakota State prepared me for so much after college. Reggie Christiansen is “a great coach and teacher, and he’s also a true student of the game. He prepared me with the knowl- edge and skills of the game in a different manner than any other coach has ever done. Choosing SDSU was the best decision that I ever made.”

1984 JACKRABBITS: COLLEGE WORLD SERIES QUALIFIERS When Mark Ekeland became the fourth coach in SDSU baseball history, no one expected a whole lot. After all, the team was 14-16 in 1983, and hadn’t made the NCAA Tournament in seven years. That 1984 season turned into one of the most memo- rable in school history, as SDSU finished 27-13 and advanced to the College World Series. The Jacks won the NCC Tournament, twice defeating host Minnesota State, Mankato. SDSU earned the right to host the Midwest Regional, and defeated Missouri-St. Louis in the championship, earning a trip to Riverside, Calif., and the CWS. Though the Jacks would lose both games in California, it could not diminish the accomplishments of the squad. During the season, the 1984 team accounted for 19 records. While 18 of those have since been broken, Dave Lane, as a sophomore, set a new benchmark for career stolen bases. He still holds that mark, with 76. In addition, Ekeland was named Midwest Regional Coach of the Year.

ED MARAS WINDOM, MINN.

1966 • COLLEGE BASEBALL COACHES ASSOCIATION • 1ST-TEAM The 6-foot-2, 225 pound righty was described in his All-American candidacy as “strong as the proverbial bull.” The proof? Before he graduated from SDSU, the Windom, Minn., native was drafted by the NFL’s Green Bay Packers and the ’s Maras earned his baseball recognition with a tremendous senior season, which led to the first all-American from the Jackrabbit baseball program. Before 1966, no SDSU pitcher had ever won more than five games. Maras topped that, going 7-2 with a 2.61 earned run average. He led the Jacks to their second straight North Central Conference title, striking out a team- best 58 batters in 69 innings of work. Of his two losses, one came at the hands of Minnesota, runners up in the Big Ten that season, and the Gophers only managed six hits and one earned run off him. He was more than just a pitcher, however, as Maras also stood out as an all-conference first baseman that sea- son. Maras hit .357 with 12 extra-base hits (four doubles, four triples and four home runs), ending the year with a .602 slugging percentage. The Jackrabbits, led by Maras, finished that year 15-12, but 10-2 inside the NCC. Maras was responsible for nearly half of the squad’s wins on the mound, and led the team in nearly every offensive category.

JIM LANGER ROYALTON, MINN.

1969 • COLLEGE BASEBALL COACHES ASSOCIATION • 2ND-TEAM Everyone recognizes Jim Langer as a Pro Football Hall of Famer and the starting center on the 1972 World Champion and undefeated Miami Dolphins. Jackrabbit historians, however, remember him just as much for his prowess on the diamond as the gridiron. Langer’s junior season earned him second-team All-America honors in the college division, which would later be known as Division II. Selected as an outfielder, Langer won SDSU’s proverbial “triple crown,” as he led the Jackrabbits in hitting, pitching and fielding. Listed at 6-foot-2 and 240 pounds, Langer hit .399 while setting then-single season records with 37 hits and 25 runs batted in. he hit five doubles, two triples and three homers, slugging .505 As a starting pitcher, he compiled a 5-3 mark with a 3.19 earned run average. As you can imagine, Langer was much more power than finesse, striking out 50 batters in 53.1 innings. On top of it all, Langer did not commit an error while patrolling the outfield, leading the Jacks to a share of the North Central Conference crown, SDSU’s third in five seasons.

DEAN KROGMAN LISMORE, MINN.

1971 • COLLEGE BASEBALL COACHES ASSOCIATION • 2ND-TEAM The 1971 South Dakota State University baseball squad finished one game shy of a North Central Conference championship - but don’t blame Dean Krogman. All that the Minnesotan did was set a record for slugging percentage that still stands today, set four more records that have since been broken, and led the NCC in six different offensive categories. Krogman hit for the highest average, at that time, in SDSU history, ending the season with a .417 average (42-for-101). He hit 10 homers, drove in 34 runs, and tallied 42 hits, all of which were also records that have since been eclipsed. The most amazing stat about Krogman’s season was his ability to hit for power. Of his 42 hits, 24 went for extra bases, leading to a school record .881 slugging percentage. That mark still stands, after 36 years. He hit 11 doubles and three triples, striking out only 14 times in 30 starts. As previously mentioned, he was an even bigger factor against conference foes. He hit at a .418 clip in the NCC, tops in the conference. He also held top honors in the league for hits (28), home runs (9), total bases (66), triples (3) and runs scored (23). South Dakota State started the year with a seven-game losing streak, but with the help of Krogman the Jacks won 14 of their last 23 games, posting a 13-7 mark in the NCC.

DAVE MANKE MARSHALL, MINN.

1976 • COLLEGE BASEBALL COACHES ASSOCIATION • 3RD-TEAM When asked to describe Manke, legendary Jackrabbit baseball coach Erv Huether said “he’s one of the best I’ve ever coached.” Talk about high praise. Manke, who did just about everything during his time in blue and yellow, was a three-time all-District V selection, earning All-America status following his senior season. During his final year, Manke helped SDSU to an 18-16 mark, including a 13-7 record and a runner-up finish in the North Central Conference. Manke, a native of Marshall, Minn., led SDSU with a .386 batting average, scoring 27 runs while tallying seven doubles, a triple and two long balls. He drew 24 walks compared to only five strikeouts in 131 plate appearances. That’s a ratio of one strikeout every 26 times up.

BILLY MCMACKEN BROOKINGS, S.D. 1988 • COLLEGE BASEBALL COACHES ASSOCIATION • 3RD-TEAM The beginning of something special was McMacken’s 1988 campaign, the first of three consecuive All- America seasons for the Brookings product. The designated hitter lived up to the position’s name, hitting at a .409 clip, and set a then-school record with 35 runs batted in. When he towed the rubber, the southpaw was just as impressive. He was a perfect 5-0, and while his earned run average was above five, opponents hit only .302 against him. In addition to his pitching and DH duties, he saw plenty of action at first base, where he was perfect defen- sively, not making an error the entire season. McMacken’s numbers would have been even more impressive, but SDSU had to forfeit its first 10 games of the season. While all the other statistics stand from those games, McMacken’s three pitching victories do not, and therefore he’s only credited for a 5-0 season. The Jackrabbits went 27-15, winning the NCC’s Southern Division. In fact, SDSU played its way to the NCC Tournament’s title tilt, falling to host Minnesota State, Mankato

1989 • COLLEGE BASEBALL COACHES ASSOCIATION • 3RD-TEAM As a junior, McMacken became the first Jackrabbit to ever earn multiple All-American honors. In leading SDSU to a 30-16-1 record, McMacken topped the Jackrabbits in batting average (.416), home runs (10), runs batted in (52), total bases (109), hits (62) and runs scored (48). He also hit 13 doubles, which tied for tops on the squad. For the second consecutive season, McMacken was errorless in the field in 36 total chances. He also pitched in 11 games, going 5-6 with a 6.55 ERA. Even though McMacken still had a year to play, he’d already set the career record for runs batted in, which at that point was 142. SDSU rattled off a 30-win season in 1989, going 11-1 to win the Southern Division title. Despite hosting the NCC Tournament, SDSU was eliminated prior to the championship game.

1990 • COLLEGE BASEBALL COACHES ASSOCIATION • 3RD-TEAM South Dakota State won its sixth consecutive NCC Southern Division crown, claimed a runner-up finish at the NCC Tournament, and earned a postseason berth to the Central Regional. The year 1990 also marked an unprecedented third-consecutive All-America season Billy McMacken. School records the lefty set during his senior season included 16 homers, 60 runs batted in and 127 total bases. The total bases mark remains a school mark, which Terry Van Engelenhoven tied in 1993, while his 60 RBIs and 16 home runs each rank second on the list. He also smacked 18 doubles, which is still a school mark, one he shares with Russ Langer and Greg Geary. On the mound, he went 5-5 with a 5.12 ERA, holding opponents to a .276 batting average

TREVOR SCHULTE MONTEVIDEO, MINN.

1993 • COLLEGE BASEBALL COACHES ASSOCIATION • 1ST-TEAM One could argue that Trevor Schulte is the greatest pitcher in Jackrabbit baseball history – and it would be hard to refute. The left-hander from Montevideo, Minn., got off to a rocky start as a junior, losing each of the first two games he pitched. He would not lose a game for another 14 months. Schulte started 11 more games, winning 10 of them, and finished the season with an earned run average of 2.88. He also made two appearances out of the bullpen, notching one save in his 81 innings of work. He recorded 72 strikeouts while only walking 38. In fact, he allowed just 57 hits all season for an opponents’ batting average of .197. Schulte was named Most Valuable Pitcher of both the North Central Conference and the North Central Region, setting a single season record for wins that he would break again the next year. Following his 10-win streak to end the 1993 season, Schulte won his first 11 outings of his senior season, which tied an NCAA record that still stands today – 21 consecutive wins.

TERRY VAN ENGELENHOVEN LUVERNE, MINN.

1993 • COLLEGE BASEBALL COACHES ASSOCIATION • 2ND-TEAM In his first two years as a Jackrabbit, Terry Van Engelenhoven had a total of 12 at-bats. While his one hit was a home run, there was no reason to think this pitcher was going to be anything special with the bat. And then came 1993. Van Engelenhoven started 54 games as a first baseman/designated hitter and turned in single-season records with 67 hits and 17 home runs, finishing the year with a .416 batting average. He also turned in some big innings on the mound, throwing one complete game – the championship game of the NCC Tournament, as he shut down North Dakota. He went 3-4 in 63 innings of work this year. To add even more irony to it all, Van Engelenhoven wasn’t even a first-team all-North Central Conference selection. The Luverne, Minn., native was merely selected honorable mention. While Van Engelenhoven’s outing against North Dakota gave the Jacks a conference crown, it was UND who got the last laugh. SDSU won a school-record 39 games and hosted the Central Regional, where it won its first two games, but UND beat the Jacks in back-to-back games to go to the College World Series.

COLE IRISH PLAINVIEW, MINN.

1996 • COLLEGE BASEBALL COACHES ASSOCIATION • 2ND-TEAM The last Jackrabbit to earn All-America status, Irish shattered the SDSU record books in 1996, and some of those marks still stand. Irish hit at a .449 clip, 75-for-167, the highest average ever put up by a Jackrabbit with at least 100 at bats. In addition, he put up several numbers which, at the time were school records: 75 hits, 63 runs and 63 RBIs. He also added 14 doubles and three triples, earning NCC Southern Division Most Valuable Player and first-team all-NCC honors. The .449 average, 63 runs scored and 63 runs batted in remain single-season school records. His 28 runs scored and 19 walks in conference play set NCC records, both of which have since been surpassed. He hit safely in 41 of the 47 games he played, tallying 22 multiple-hit games. Irish’s numbers weren’t just against fluff competition. In the NCC Tournament, he had four hits, including a double and two home runs, against league champion Minnesota State, Mankato. The Jacks, led by Irish, finished the year at 34-13, winning their 11th NCC Southern Division crown in 12 seasons.
