Welcome...

At Tiffi n University, our students endeavour to excel in both the classroom and the athletic arena. Our athletic programs have enjoyed tremendous success in recent years with conference champi-onships, teams being nationally ranked and challenging at national tournaments. There have been numerous individual accolades including All-Americans, and it is no small accomplishment that in the past few years we have set new standards of excellence with our individual and team academic achievements. We expect our student-athletes to be just as successful in the classroom. A recent self study con-ducted by the university indicated that, of all the athletes who completed their eligibility at Tiffi n University in the last fi ve years, 95% of those athletes graduated. While many colleges would be ecstatic with these results, we will never be content until it is 100%. We are proud of our rich history and look forward to setting new milestones as we enter the NCAA Division II playing fi eld and the highly competitive Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference. We are proud of our athletes and what they have accomplished. They have been the force behind the winning tradition that has been established, and I am confi dent the future will also be highly success-ful for Tiffi n University athletics.

No one is more associated with Dragons baseball Lonny Allen. He enters his 21st season as head coach and 24th season with the program.

A f t e r taking over in 1992, Allen

helped the team post a winning record in just his second season, going 17-15 in 1993. One staple of Allen’s teams has been heavy hitting, as the offensive record books have been rewritten numerous times during his tenure.

With 419 career victories, no other Dragons baseball manager has won more games. The Dragons have been remarkably consistent, posting 20 or more victories in 13 of his seasons.

Tiffi n’s tradition of great hitting was in full view during the 2010 season. Led by national batting champion Devin Rudolph, TU set 10 new records, just missing qualifying for the Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference tournament for the fi rst time in school history.

Among Allen’s other highlights are the 2006 squad winning 26 games, the third highest single season wins total in school history. In 2003 the squad set a new single season record with 30 victories, shattering 18 individual and team records along the way.

Allen has coached 11 all-americas, 18 all-region and 94 all-conference players. In addition, four Dragons have played professionally, Brett Muche, Gregg Prenzlin, Brett Gray and Jesse Schrader.

Lonny AllenHead Coach Allen also serves as Athletic Director for Tiffi n University and has been at the forefront of continuing the growth of the department in Division II and the GLIAC. Under his direction, the program has made many positive additions, such as the development of a new indoor practice and recreation center, indoor track and fi eld complex, a golf practice facility, and also a wrestling practice facility.

In addition, Allen has overseen the addition of two new varsity sports (women’s lacrosse, wrestling), helping develop the new Recreation center featuring an indoor track and fi eld complex, new athletic offi ces, and an indoor practice facility while also expanding the size of the weight room and training facilities for the betterment of TU’s athletes.

Allen is a 1992 graduate of Tiffi n University with a degree in Sports Management. He has a Master’s degree in Sports Administration from Bowling Green State University .

Joe Wilkins enters his second season with Tiffi n University after a three-year absence, having served as assistant coach in 2006 and 2007. He will handle the pitching staff and tutor Dragons catchers.

Wilkins was an assistant coach at Pepperdine (2010), where his responsibilities included training the catchers, helping to develop the offense and coaching fi rst base. He helped second-year catcher Nate Johnson grind through a 54-game season in 2010, in which he caught all but one of 473.1 innings pitched and threw out 17 base runners - the fourth highest season total in school history. At the plate, Johnson led all Waves with nine home runs and 36 RBI en route to being named to the All-WCC Honorable Mention squad.

A locker room, lounge area and coaches offi ces attached to the home dugout were completed in 2011.

During the summers of 2006 and 2007, Wilkins coached in the Great Lakes Summer Collegiate League. In 2006, he was the third base coach and worked with the hitters, catchers, outfi elders and infi elders for the Delaware Cows. In 2007, Wilkins was the head coach for the Stark County Terriers. As head coach of the Terriers, he worked with players from such collegiate programs as Wake Forest, Kent State and Cincinnati.

His walkoff home run vs. Indiana gave the Buckeyes the tournament title. OSU won two Big Ten regular season championships and advanced to three NCAA Tournaments, including a Super Regional appearance in 1999, during Wilkins’ collegiate career.

Wilkins played professionally for three years, spending time in the Colorado Rockies and Arizona Diamondbacks’ farm systems. He led the Northwest League’s Yakima Bears in hitting in 2002.

A native of Columbus, Ohio, Wilkins graduated from Ohio State in 2005 with a degree in human ecology and a specialization in consumer affairs. He earned his master’s of business administration in 2007 from Tiffi n University.

When looking back at the 2011 season, you have to look past the obvious. The Dragons went 10-24 in the GLIAC (10th) and 13-35 overall. However, they lost 16 games by three runs or less. Tiffi n also posted a win over Wayne State, who were the GLIAC and NCAA Division II Midwest Regional runner-ups. TU recorded two wins over Ohio Dominican, fi fth in the league.

Offensively, Tiffi n returns fi ve of seven players who hit better than .280. Senior Pat Curtin, an All-GLIAC fi rst team and All-Midwest Region second team selection, scored 30 runs and led the squad with a .384 average.

The Dragons return a pair of All-GLIAC honorees in seniors Jordan Chiero and Val Helldobler. Chiero had 11 doubles and three triples, scored 30 runs, drove in 26 runs and hit .327. Helldobler had 11 doubles, drove in 24 runs, stole 11 bases and hit .298. He is the all-time leader in assists with 348.

Senior Zach McCutcheon batted .283 and senior Cory Osborne led the team with 28 RBI’s while hitting .281. Junior Ryan Williams played well down the stretch, hitting .311 over the last 14 games of the season.

Tiffi n hit the junior colleges hard, coming up with four players. Junior Roger Christensen was all-region selection at Mott CC (Mich.). He scored 31 runs and batted .306. TU also brought in three all-conference players in juniors Tayler Glass (Glen Oaks CC, Mich.), Tyler Glass (Glen Oaks CC, Mich.) and Ryan Locke (Kalamazoo Valley CC, Mich.). The Glass twins helped their team win the conference championship while Locke had 25 doubles, scored 85 runs and drove in 76 during his two-year career.

Among the freshman, Nick Hueneberg (Peru, Ill.) and Derek Koch (Pleasant Plain, Ohio) look to challenge for playing time early. Hueneberg, as a senior at St. Bede’s High School, had 12 doubles, nine triples and three home runs, drove in 32 runs and batted .432 in 23 games. Koch, as a senior at Goshen High School, was the SBAAC Player of the Year. He was 3-2 and at the plate led the league in doubles, drove in 40 runs and hit .557.

On the mound, senior Chris Pistorio and Curtin are the top hurlers back for the Dragons. Pistorio was 4-4 with three complete games in nine starts, struck out 22 batters and had a 6.17 earned run average in 54 innings of work. Curtin was 2-5 with two complete games in nine starts, struck out 30 batters and had a 5.21 ERA in 48.3 innings.

Back on the rubber for the Dragons will be senior Jordan Liette, who missed 2011 with an injury. Two years ago, he was 2-2 and led the GLIAC with fi ve saves. JC transfers Brent Faber and Eric Klepper look to challenge to be part of the rotation. Faber was 7-5 with 71 strikeouts in his two seasons at Mott CC (Mich.). Klepper was 12-9 with 99 strikeouts over the past two seasons at Kalamazoo Valley CC (Mich.). He ranked among the top 20 in the country for ERA.

“I’m looking forward to the upcoming season,” said head coach Lonny Allen. “The players we have back along with the newcomers have me really excited. I thought we really gelled during the fall training. I’m anticipating having a very good season in 2012.”

Tiffi n University’s Heminger Field continues to expand in the off-season before the 2012 season. The home of the Dragons received an improved backstop area with a nicely designed concrete wall and profes-sional net-ting in place of chain link

fence. The fan seating was completely re-worked, with individual seats replacing bleach-ers directly behind the backstop in front of the newly designed press box and concession area. Also new for the 2012 season is the full renovation and expansion of the Dragons dug-out area, with individual lockerrooms, baseball offi ces, and a lounge area directly connected to the Dragons’ dugout. The facility will continue to improve with the times as it becomes an inte-gral part of making attending baseball games a

great experience for Tiffi n University fans. Tiffi n University enjoys playing its home games at Heminger Field. One of many attractive new facilities on display, Heminger Field is one of the top baseball fi elds in the region. With capacity for 500, enclosed bullpens, a new fully equipped press box, a renovated backstop area with nettting, improved stadium seating, and a large outfi eld electronic scoreboard, the fi eld offers the Tiffi n University baseball team a great place to call home. The fi eld is just 1.5 miles from the Tiffi n University campus and resides on 78 acres of land that also house all the outdoor athletics teams at TU.

Heminger Field is part of the Tiffi n University Athletic Fields, which debuted in the fall of 1997. Also included are two softball fi elds, two soccer fi elds, two football practice fi elds, and a developing cross country course. Another new addition to the fi elds is the Athletic Fieldhouse. In addition, there is expanded parking accomodating hundreds of vehicles. An indoor practice facility is also in development.

Share the Pride, Build on Traditionis a $12 million comprehensive campaign designed to create endowed student scholarships, construct the new recreation center, and make other campus improvements. These enhancements, coupled with recent investments in new student apartments, the Tiffi n University Nature Preserve, Paradiso Athletic Complex, and the Miami Street Improvement Project, will result in a total investmentby Tiffi n University of more than $30 million in the Tiffi n community.

Campaign ObjectivesRecreation Center$9,400,000The Recreation Center will consist of two connected buildings: a fi eld house and an indoor practice facility. The connector will include a lobby and locker room facilities.

Other Campus Development$1,600,000Over the past several decades, TU has created a campus that not only refl ects the University’s own growth and success, but also en-hances the appearance and economic well being of the City of Tiffi n. To continue pursuing the campus master plan, TU seeks $1.6 million for land acquisition, landscaping, parking and others amenities.

Endowed Student Scholarships$1,000,000Without fi nancial aid, many Tiffi n University students could not afford higher education. Since over 80 percent of TU students receive some level of aid, TU leaders seek $1 million to bolster the endowment resources of the University to create additionalstudent scholarships.
