ASSISTANT COACH

KRIS MASHEPHONE: 903-923-2241E-MAIL: KMASHE@ETBU.EDU

ETBU’s volleyball program has been in capable hands the last five seasons, as former Tiger standout Lyndsay Mashe has pushed forward with keeping ETBU in the running for the American Southwest Conference championship on an annual basis. Under Coach Mashe the last five years, the Tigers have won or shared two ASC East titles and have finished no lower than second place in the division race. The program has advanced to the conference postseason tournament every year under Mashe’s direction, giving ETBU a streak of 10 straight post-season appearances dating back to the 2001 season. Mashe’s teams won 20 or more matches in a season three straight years from 2007-2009. After her fifth year as head coach of her alma mater in 2010, Coach Mashe has now compiled an overall mark of 94-62 (.602) as coach of the Tigers. Facing a rebuilding year with the youngest squad she’s ever coached at ETBU in 2010, the Tigers nonetheless finished second again in the ASC East and advanced to the program’s 10th straight conference tournament. To get there the Tigers had to win seven of 10 matches on the year that were streteched to a fifth set. Mashe has been able to continue building on the tradition she helped establish at ETBU as a player. She joined the Lady Tigers prior to the 2003 season after playing her first two seasons of eligibility at Panola College, and helped lead ETBU to the last of three straight ASC titles in 2003. Mashe, formerly Lyndsay Simpson during her playing days at ETBU, earned All-American Southwest Conference recognition as a player in 2003 and 2004, first as a defensive specialist/libero in ‘03 and then as the Lady Tiger setter in her senior year of 2004. She still ranks third all-time on the Lady Tigers’ career assists list, with 1,524. Before joining ETBU, Mashe won back-to-back all-conference recogni-tion as Panola’s setter. Prior to that she was a highly-touted setter coming out of Pine Tree High School in Longview, Texas, where she earned all-state honors for the tradition-rich Lady Pirates. After graduating in May 2005 with a B.S.E., Mashe took her first head coaching job at Atlanta (TX) High School and guided the Lady Rabbits to a 24-10 record and a playoff run that went two rounds deep in Class 3A. For-mer ETBU coach Suzanne Wingrove, who won three ASC titles in five seasons as head coach from 2001-05 and who recruited Lyndsay to ETBU, resigned in January of 2006. Mashe was then hired as head coach at her alma mater less than a year after graduation, and she quickly set about building a reputation as one of the brightest young coaches in the league. In her first season as coach in 2007, Mashe guided ETBU back from an 0-6 start to the season to win 19 games and finish as co-champion in the ASC East Division. It was ETBU’s first division championship in any sport since the 2004 season, and the Lady Tigers’ first division volleyball championship since 2002. Lyndsay’s husband, Kris, works on her staff at ETBU as volleyball assis-tant coach. Lyndsay and Kris have one son, Brady Wayne.

Dr. Samuel W. “Dub” Oliver was elected as the 12th President of East Texas Baptist University by the uni-versity Board of Trustees on Oct. 15, 2008. He officially became President on June 1, 2009, succeeding Dr. Bob E. Riley who retired after 17 years of service to ETBU.

Dr. Oliver was Vice President for Student Life at Baylor University in Waco, Texas, from 2005-2008. He had been employed in various posi-tions at Baylor for 16 years upon his election as President of ETBU. A native of San Antonio, Texas, Oliver is a graduate of Baylor University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Education. He holds a Master of Science degree in Educational Psychology from Texas A&M University. Oliver earned his Doctor of Phi-losophy degree in Educational Administration from Texas A&M as well. He is also a

licensed and ordained Baptist minister having served from October 2003 to May 2009 as the pastor of Canaan Baptist Church of Crawford, Texas. Dr. Oliver came to Baylor in April 1992 from Texas A&M University to serve as Director of Student Activities. In June 1999, he took on additional responsibilities as the Associate Dean for Campus Life. Then, in June 2001, Dr. Oliver was promoted to be the Dean for Student Develop-ment, a post he held until June 2005 when he was named Assistant Vice President for Student Life. For a year he served as Interim Vice President for Student Life before being named the Vice President for Student Life. Dr. Oliver has also served Baylor as a Visiting Professor in the Hankamer School of Business, an Adjunct Professor in the School of Education, and Interim University Chaplain. He served in the United States Air Force stationed at Carswell Air Force Base in the late 1980’s. Before entering graduate school, he was a third-grade teacher in the Fort Worth Independent School District. Dr. Oliver’s wife, Susie, was an adjunct faculty member and full-time cheerleader coach at Baylor. Their daughter, Callie, graduated from high school in May 2010. “East Texas Baptist University, near the conclusion of its first century of service and at the beginning of a new century of faithfulness, is well positioned for increased excellence in all its endeavors. In doing so, the University will, by God’s grace, become an even brighter light on the hill to a world that is desperately in need,” said Dr. Oliver.

Academic instruction at East Texas Baptist University began in 1917 with the inaugural session of a two-year in-stitution known as College of Marshall. The campaign to launch the col-lege had begun in 1911 and was led by William Thomas Tardy, pastor of Marshall’s First Baptist Church. Tardy negotiated the purchase of 100 acres of the original K. M. Van Zandt family plantation for $25,000. Keeping 50 of the 100 acres on Van Zandt Hill in northwest Marshall, the college subdivided and sold the remaining property. Marshall’s citizens sub-scribed another $70,000, and the Baptist General Convention of Texas assumed control of the college, ap-propriating $40,000 for buildings and furnishings. The trustees applied for and received a charter from the State of Texas in 1912, and Thurman C. Gardner, an early day Baptist Train-ing Union leader, became the first president in 1913.

For the first building, Marshall Hall, contractors broke ground on July 5, 1915. Of neoclassical architecture and com-pleted in 1916, Marshall Hall crowned the highest point in Harrison County. The robust building was a self-contained educational facility with a ground floor gymnasium, main floor administrative offices, laboratories, and library, third floor classrooms, and a chapel/theatre on the top floor.

The first freshman class registered in 1917 under President Henry Eugene Watters (1916-1918). The college boasted a teaching faculty of nine members. By the academic year 1918-19, some 300 students were enrolled in either a junior college or an academy curriculum. With World War I raging, a student cavalry unit

drilled regularly on the college grounds.

New dormitories soon encircled the classic campus quadrangle. In 1924, Dr. Franklin S. Groner, the Secretary of the Baptist General Convention of Texas, conveyed the Baptists’ commitment to assume the college debt if the Marshall Chamber of Commerce would supply $12,500 annually for five years, enabling it to remain open.

Leading the college during the trying days of The Great Depression, Dr. Franklin Groner (1928-42) assumed the presidency and instituted a permanent endowment program. In 1935, an additional

43 acres were purchased, including the land and buildings of the St. Joseph’s Boys Industrial Orphanage, some of which was converted to men’s housing. In 1938, Baptist layman and builder Fred Hale broke ground for Laura Groner Hall, a modern residence hall for women. A reduced replica of Mt. Vernon, the stunning structure stood complete in 1940, its austere construction having cost only $10,500.

World War II robbed the campus of its men and resources. By 1943, only 137 students remained. In 1944, the trustees, making perhaps the most important decision in the institu-tion’s history, asked the Baptist General Convention of Texas to elevate the college to four-year status and to change the name to East Texas Baptist College.

A former pastor of First Baptist Church, Midland, Texas, Dr. Harvey Daniel Bruce (1942-1960), the college’s ninth president, oversaw a vigorous postwar enrollment and building boom. Veterans arrived on campus, many bringing their families, and enrollment briefly surpassed 800. Prefabricated war surplus family housing was erected on the campus perimeter.

The college added Scarborough Chapel in 1948, which was built in the neo-Gothic style. Also added

were Feagin Hall, a new men’s residence facility; a cafeteria and student center; and additions to the women’s residence hall, which was renamed for Merle Bruce, wife of the college president. Two ornate, neo-classi-cal buildings were added in the 1950s, Sanderson Hall (now Craig Hall) to house the laboratory sci-ences departments, and Harvey Daniel Bruce Hall as the new library/admin-istrative complex. Keys Gymnasium was built in 1960. In 1961 a new wom-en’s residence hall, named after Evelyn Linebery, with its long portico and roomy plantation-style architecture, was completed.

Dr. Bruce labored to establish a liberal arts tradition, along with strong degree programs in Bible and religion. His administration’s crowning achievement came in 1957 when the Southern Association

of Colleges and Schools granted accreditation to East Texas Baptist College.

Under Dr. Howard C. Bennett as president (1960-76), the aca-demic program established enduring credibility. Dr. Bennett, the for-

mer pastor of First Baptist Church, Kilgore, oversaw construction of the new Howard C. Bennett Student Center in 1973.

Dr. Jerry Dawson (1976-85), who had been Graduate Dean at Southwest Texas State University, became the first professional educa-tor to lead the college. By 1982, the postwar “baby boom” peaked and enrollment stood at 920 students. A spacious new president’s home replaced the stately residence that Drs. Bruce and Bennett had occupied. After the opening of the Mamye Jarrett Library in 1979, H. D. Bruce Hall became avail-able for the Religion and Teacher Education depart-ments. Married students occupied several new brick

housing units. Charles Fry Hall for Men was opened. As age claimed some of the original col-lege buildings, the older men’s dormitory, build-ings of the old orphan-age, and various frame and prefabricated struc-tures were dismantled during the 1970s and 1980s.

In 1984 the University Charter revision changed the institutional name to East Texas Baptist University. However, by 1985, enrollment gains had eroded.

During the interim presidency of Dr. Harvey Lewis (1985-86), the University met various deferred maintenance and oper-ating needs.

The former president of two other Baptist institutions from 1961 to 1986, Dr. Robert Craig (1986-1992) launched a building program of unprecedented proportions, including the Fred Hale Business Building in 1988-89. Other subsequent construction projects were the Jenna Guest Music Building, the Louise Rogers Spiritual Life Center, now known as the Ornelas Spiritual Life Center; major additions to the Bennett Student Center, construction of the Clifford Nelson Murphy Science Hall, and the Mabee Housing Complex.

The untimely death of Dr. Craig in March 1992, only two months prior to his announced retirement, was followed by the leadership of Dr. Bob E. Riley (1992-Present), who had been President of the Howard County Junior College District in Big Spring, Texas. Under Dr. Riley, the University experienced record student enrollments.

The campus continued to develop under President Riley’s leader-ship with the 1995 completion of the Dean Healthplex and Ornelas Gymnasium. Fall 1996 found the opening of The Joseph and Louise Ornelas Residential Complex and the renovation of Marshall Hall, which was completed in 1997. Meadows Hall, which houses the Murphy Instructional Technology Center and the Department of Mathematics was renovated and occupied beginning with the fall semester of 1999. The University Apartments opened in fall 2002, and the renovation of Scarborough Chapel into Scarborough Hall was com-

plete in January 2004.

KENT REEVESATHLETIC DIRECTORB.S.E., John Brown UniversityM.S.E., Arkansas State UniversityEntering his 14th year as Director of Athletics at East Texas Baptist University, Kent Reeves has presided over the Tigers’ transformation into a solid member of the NCAA Division III ranks. Reeves, who remains the winningest coach in two athletics programs at ETBU, originally

stepped down as women’s basketball coach in 1997 to assume full-time duties as athletic director. He also was named the university’s first softball coach that year and laid the foundation for a pro-gram that has become one of the best in the nation annually. Under Reeves’ guidance as AD the department has grown from just five sports in 1997 to 10 in 2010, with men’s and women’s tennis set to be added in the fall of 2011. ETBU athletics programs have consistently competed for champion-

ships in the American Southwest Conference, with nine conference titles and 17 ASC division titles since joining the Division III ranks in 1998-99. ETBU teams have combined to make 41 conference tournament appearances since 1998, and the Tiger softball program claimed the university’s first NCAA national championship last spring. Facility upgrades have also been a staple of Reeves’ time as athletic direc-tor. Since 1997, ETBU has added new playing facilities for softball, football and soccer. Various upgrades and improvements have been added to each athletics program on campus over the last 10 years. Reeves arrived at ETBU as women’s basketball coach in 1987. When he decided to step down as basketball coach following the 1996-97 season, Reeves had directed the lady Tigers to an average of 20 wins per season in his 10 years as coach. He finished with 206 wins and his teams made nine NAIA postseason appearances. As softball coach from 1998-2000, Reeves built the program from scratch and culminated with the program’s first ASC championship in 2000. He assumed AD-only duties after that season but returned to the dugout in a pinch for the 2004 season. That year, the Tigers posted a program-record 41 wins. He then took another year off before returning for the 2006-07 seasons, finishing with a program-record 183 wins over six seasons. Reeves is active in the Marshall community, serving in the Marshall Lions Club as well as being a deacon at Central Baptist Church. He and his wife Mary Beth have two daughters: Kendra, who is married to Austin Skipworth, and Taylor, a recent graduate of Baylor University.HEAD COACHES

CORNISH FIELDETBU’s soccer field, which opened in 2002, was christened Cornish Field in 2007 fol-lowing a gift for facility upgrade from Harold and Joyce Cornish of Marshall. The lighted field, which began construction in 2000 and was open and ready for play to start the 2002 season, sits on the extreme northern edge of the ETBU campus adjacent to Ornelas Stadium, the Tigers’ football facility. The improvement to the facility included installation of permanent bleachers, concrete walkways, a retaining wall that will allow fans to bring their own lawn chairs and enjoy the games, and a wrought iron decorative fence on the south side of the field as well as updated fencing around the entire field. The entrance is bricked with a decorative archway bearing the name of the donor. Opened in 2002, the facility is accessible by a road -- Baker Boulevard, courtesy of Mr. and Mrs. Ed Baker -- that runs down the west side of Ornelas Stadium on the north end of campus. The soccer field runs east to west with bleachers to the south side of the field. The north side is used for team benches and scorers table. Lights were added to the facility in the fall of 2005. The lights were purchased with a gift in honor of former Lady Tiger Brooke Adair, a 2000-03 four-year letterwin-ner at ETBU.

TAYLOR FIELDTaylor Field is the home to ETBU’s softball program, which marched to the 2010 NCAA Division III national championship. The Tigers have had an unprecedented run of consistency in the ASC in softball, with 11 straight trips to the conference postseason tournament. During those 11 years ETBU has won five conference championships and six ASC East Division titles. The facility began as a gift from Earl and Louise Taylor and was constructed in time for ETBU’s first season of softball in 1998. The facility was upgraded in 2005 with a gift from Welby C. Edwards, with installation of a new two-story press box that also included a Lady Tiger locker room, brick dugouts and landscaping.Taylor Field’s dimensions make it a cozy park for hitters and pitchers alike. Distances to the foul poles down both lines is measured at 190 feet, with a distance of 210 to centerfield. The power alleys are 215 feet from home plate as well, making the majority of the facility a comfortable one for both ETBU and opposing pitchers. The softball team won ETBU’s first NCAA Division III national title in 2010, when the Tigers finished the season with eight straight wins in the NCAA Tournament and brought home the championship with a walk-off win over Linfield College on May 24, 2010 at the national championship tournament in Eau Claire, Wisc.

ORNELAS STADIUMOrnelas Stadium has provided East Texas Baptist University with a top-flight game-day facility for football since the Tigers’ program was resurrected in time for the 2000 season after a 50-year absence. The Ornelas family of Tyler provided a gift that kick-started the stadium construction late in 1999, and the stadium was literally carved from the East Texas earth in less than a year. It wasn’t quite ready for the Tigers’ first scheduled home game against McMurry in early September, but by the time the second home game came around -- against Austin College on Oct. 7, 2000 -- Ornelas Stadium was ready to become the home of the Tigers. The stadium hosted only day games until the 2009 season, when lights were added to the facility to provide ETBU the option of scheduling night games. The facility remains one of the shining landmarks on the northern end of the campus, with Cornish Field for soccer just to the north of the stadium and Taylor Field for softball located just across Van Zandt Street to the south. The stadium grandstand has a capacity of 3,000, with general admission and standing-room only available on two sloped hillsides on either side of the grand-stand.

WOODS FIELDWoods Field has been the home to East Texas Baptist University baseball since the program’s inception in the mid-1960s. The facility has received a number of upgrades over the last few years. The lat-est of the upgrades, and the most dramatic, was the installation of lights just prior to the 2008 season that allowed for the first nighttime baseball in the history of the program. The facility has also received more upgrades since 2006. These upgrades include a remodeling of the Tiger bullpen, as well as additions and improvements to the outdoor batting cages. In 2005, the old metal backstop and dugouts were torn down and replaced with red brick. The chain-link backstop, which had surrounded home plate for years, was replaced by a dark netting which provides safety while allowing for improved sight lines for fans in the bleachers. Woods Field, with a short porch in left, has long been recognized as a hit-ter-friendly park. The ballpark especially favors right-handed hitters, with the left-field wall sitting just 325 from home plate. The distance to center field is 400 feet, while the right-field fence is a more comfortable 335 feet from the batter’s box.

ORNELAS GYMOrnelas Gymnasium, as a gift from the Ornelas family of Tyler, was built in 1995 and replaced Keys Gymnasium as the home to ETBU bas-ketball. Although Keys still stands as an intramural facility, it is on the east end of the complex that now includes Ornelas Gym on the west side and Dean Healthplex in the middle.

Ornelas Gym has bowl-stype seating, with three levels of seating extending down to the gym floor. The facility includes bleacher seats at floor level, reserved chairback in a mezzanine level and upper level general admission bleachers.

ETBU students are allowed in the floor bleachers, typically across from the Tiger bench, to give the home fans a nice up-close view of the ac-tion. It also provides a nice homecourt advantage for the Tigers.

OrIn the summer of 2007, the gym floor received a facelift. ETBU’s trademark tiger-eyes logo was added to both baselines, and the floor was completely refinished with ETBU, ASC and NCAA logos added.

As part of the complex that includes Ornelas Gym, Dean Healthplex was also constructed in 1995. Built with a gift from Ben and Mary Dean, the healthplex opened on the same day as Ornelas Gym and houses state-of-the-art equipment for physical fitness such as treadmills, station-ary bicycles, stairmasters and both free and machine weightlifting stations.

Dean Healthplex also has four racquetball courts.

All healthplex facilities are free and open to ETBU faculty, staff and students. The complex also includes offices for athletic director, basket-ball, baseball, softball, soccer and volleyball coaches, as well as kinesiology faculty.
