Neil Macdonald begins his third season as head coach of the Jacksonville State soccer program and has already begun to lay the groundwork for the pro-gram that he envisions.

In just two seasons at JSU, Macdonald has changed the mindset of the Gamecock soccer program. After one season through the Ohio Valley Conference without a league win under

its belt, JSU and Macdonald defied the preseason prognostications and turned in a 6-4 worksheet within the conference and an 11-win season in 2014. Jax State made its fourth OVC Tournament appearance and the first since 2005. JSU made an incredible run in the conference tournament, reaching the championship match before falling to SIU Edwardsville in overtime. The Gamecocks opened with a win over UT Martin in penalty kicks in the opening round before dispatching regular season champion and host, Southeast Missouri, 1-0, in the semifinals.

His peers in the league took noticed of the work he did during the 2014 campaign and named him the OVC Coach of the Year. The honor is the first of Macdonald’s coaching career and just the second JSU coach to receive the coach of the year accolade. He is the first to claim the award in the program’s OVC history. Lisa Howe, the program’s first coach, won the Atlantic Sun Coach of the Year honor in 1999 and 2002.

The 2014 squad shattered many team and individual program records as the Gamecocks recorded 54 goals during the season, which led the conference by 12. JSU averaged 2.45 goals per contest and finished with nearly 300 shots on the season. Jax State also broke the program’s assist mark of 41 that was set in 1998 with 48 assists in 2014. JSU set a new program and OVC record for goals scored in a single game in a 15-0 win over Mississippi Valley State. The previous mark was 12 against Alabama State on Sept. 23, 2008. It marks the third time in the pro-gram’s history to reach double figure goals against an opponent.

The 2014 senior class will be remembered for its leadership on and off the field and has established the foundation for the future under Macdonald. Jackie Rush departed the program with her name etched throughout the Jax State record books. Lindsey Jackson improved every season in a JSU uniform and became one of JSU’s top-scoring threats in 2014. Brianna Salverda, a co-captain with Rush in 2014, did not pile up statistics as a defender but was key to the JSU defense throughout her four seasons. The Calgary, Alberta, Canada, product played in 79 career matches at JSU.

JSU’s success in the classroom has not waivered since Macdonald took over. JSU has had six players named to the NSCAA Scholar All-South Region list.

Macdonald was named the third head coach in JSU’s soccer program in February of 2013. The Gamecocks finished with a 4-13-2 overall mark, but the he saw bright spots throughout his first season on the Jax State side. The Macdonald Era got off to a good start by claiming the season opener at McNeese State. It marked the first time JSU won its season-opening contest since the 2000 season. Jax State also won Macdonald’s home debut with a 4-0 blanking of in-state foe Alabama A&M. The four goals scored in the match was a season high for the Gamecocks.

His squad returned to the pitch the following Friday to do something that has not been done in three seasons, beat in-state nemesis Troy. Then-freshman Mackenzie Bellows connected on the game-winning goal in double overtime to post the 1-0 result.

After being battle tested in the non-conference slate, the Gamecocks put forth a valiant effort against Ohio Valley Conference sides. The 2013 squad dropped a tough 2-1 extra time affair to Morehead State and recorded a draw against Tennessee Tech.

Two members of Macdonald’s first JSU squad earned postseason accolades. Jackie Rush, who served as one of the 2013 captains, led by example throughout the first year of the Neil Macdonald era at Jax State. The Trophy Club, Texas, native averaged 4.32 shots per game in 2013 and scored a team-high five goals and 11 total points. A 19-game starter for the Gamecocks in the midfield, Rush was tabbed the OVC’s Offensive Player of the Week after narrowly missing a hat trick against Alabama A&M in September.

For the second-straight year, a Gamecock was represented on the OVC’s All-Newcomer squad as freshman Mackenzie Bellows was voted on the team. Bellows, who came to JSU from Calgary, Alberta, Canada, quickly made an impression on Macdonald from the time she stepped foot on campus and started all 19 matches. The midfielder ranked third on the team in points with six after producing a pair of goals and assists.

JSU continued its string of consecutive National Soccer Coaches Association of America Women’s Team Academic Awards to five consecutive years and the eighth time in the program’s history. To be eligible for the award, teams must have a team grade point average of 3.0 or better. Jax State turned in a 3.38 GPA, which was the highest among the ten in-state programs that also received the academic team honor – UAB (3.23), Alabama (3.35), Auburn (3.34), Auburn-Montgomery (3.06), Alabama State (3.34), Faulkner (3.09), South Alabama (3.05), Spring Hill (3.24) and Troy (3.30). JSU was one of eight OVC programs to accomplish a 3.00 or better in the classroom.

JSU also claimed the OVC’s 2013 Team Sportsmanship Award for soc-cer. The OVC Team Sportsmanship Award is voted on by the student-athletes and coaches of the respective sports and the team awards are bestowed upon the Conference squads deemed to have best exhibited the standards of sportsmanship and ethical behavior as outlined by the OVC and NCAA. Included in the areas for evaluation are the conduct of student-athletes, coaches, staff and administrators and fans.

Macdonald has posted a 222-160-22 record during his 17-year coaching career, which includes his first two seasons at JSU last season and the previous nine seasons at Mississippi State

The Inverness, Scotland, native came to the United States in 1997, where he was four-year starter for Augusta State. Macdonald captained the team during his junior and senior seasons and was also a recipient of a handful of team awards, as well as one conference player of the week accolade. He played and started in every game he was eligible for during his illustrious career in Augusta, Ga., and he left the distinguished academic institution as the career record holder in games played and games started.

Macdonald began his coaching career as an assistant at Iowa Central Community College in 1997, where he helped coach both the men’s and women’s soccer teams. In his initial season, the women finished the season as regional champions with a 9-3-1 record and featured the nation’s leading scorer at that level. The men’s team also won the regional championship with an impressive 15-4-1 record and a No. 14 national ranking.

Following a 1998 campaign that saw both the Tritons and Lady Tritons march to regional and national rankings, Macdonald was named head coach at ICCC. Over the next five seasons, he would guide the men’s team to five regional championships, four times reaching the Sweet 16 of the National Junior College Association of America (NJCAA) national tournament. Including his final season in 2002, the squad advanced through to the Final Four.

Over the same five years, he led the women’s soccer team to the same success. The Lady Tritons won five consecutive regional championships, including an appearance in the Elite Eight in 2002.

During his five-year tenure in Fort Dodge, Macdonald collected an impressive 149-34-5 coaching record. At the conclusion of the 2002 campaigns, he was honored with NJCAA Region Coach of the Year accolades, along with being named one of three finalists for NSCAA National Coach of the Year honors. He was also lauded with Who’s Who

of America’s Teachers as well.

Macdonald joined the staff at Mississippi State in 2003 as a volunteer assistant coach and was promoted to a full-time assistant later in the year. He helped the 2003 squad turn in a program-best 0.86 goals against average. That team finished the year 9-8-3 and recorded the program’s first wins over nationally-ranked teams, including a victory over No. 6 Florida.

The next season, Macdonald became head coach of the Bulldogs and became the most successful rookie head coach in Mississippi State his-tory, taking the team to nine victories and an SEC Tournament berth.

In 2011, MSU secured its most SEC victories since 2004, including upsets of two Top 20 teams for the first time since 2003. The 2012 Bulldogs opened the year with an eight-game unbeaten streak, a mark that matched the 2009 squad’s 8-0 start for the best opening to a season in school history.

Born on May 16, 1972, in Banff, Scotland, Macdonald currently holds his coaching license from the Scottish Football Association. Macdonald returned to his home country and completed his Scottish FA UEFA “B” license, one of the top coaching decorations in international soccer.

Macdonald met his wife Jamie, a staff member at JSU as well, when both were athletes at Augusta State. The couple has three sons: Colin, Liam and Findlay.

JACKSONVILLE STATE GAMECOCKS SOCCER 20158

Former Gamecock goalkeeper Katelyn Geddings returns to the program as a graduate assistant after con-cluding her days in goal in 2012.

She will work primarily with the Gamecock keep-ers and assist the staff in other roles

throughout the season.

Geddings, a native of Warrior, Alabama, spent last year at Sewanee University of the South as assistant soccer coach and also served as an assistant on the track and field staff for the Tigers. She helped Sewanee to a 13-6 overall mark in 2014 and advanced to the Southern Athletic Association Tournament semifinals.

Following graduation in Jacksonville in 2013, Geddings stayed in the area by helping the

Jacksonville High School soccer program. She helped guide the Golden Eagles to a pair of area championships, one Elite Eight appear-ance and a season record of 16-3-1. Geddings also served as a volunteer assistant coach at Birmingham Southern, instructing the Panther’s goalkeepers.

She closed out her Jax State career ranked sec-ond on the program’s all-time career saves list with 291 stops. In her four seasons in red and white, Geddings posted 10 shutouts and had a goals-against average of 1.43, which lists her third on the statistical chart. As a junior in 2011, she was credited with 139 saves and added 132 stops as a senior in 2012.

Geddings was named Second Team All-Ohio Valley Conference as a goalkeeper in 2011 after leading the league in total saves along with the best save percentage in the conference at .842. Her save total ranked her among the leaders among NCAA Division I keepers in 2011. She averaged 6.6 stops per match as a junior and ranked fourth in the OVC with five shutouts.

Geddings claimed OVC Goalkeeper of the Week honors during her junior campaign after total-ing 24 saves in a weekend against Austin Peay and Murray State. She shares JSU’s single game record for saves with 20 with Michelle Japak after posting the mark against UT Martin in 2011.

Prior to her arrival on campus as a freshman, Geddings attended Corner High School in Warrior, Alabama. CHS did not field a high school soccer team, but she played two seasons for the Alabama Olympic Development squad and played club soccer for the Birmingham United. She also kicked two seasons for the CHS football team and was voted the 2007 Most Valuable Special Teams Player. Geddings was also active in track and field on the prep level. She was selected the Jefferson County Most Valuable Runner for small schools.

She is the daughter of Jim and Toni Geddings. Geddings earned a bachelor of science degree from JSU in psychology with a minor in coach-ing in 2014.

Graduate Assistant Katelyn Geddings FIRST SEASON

Neil Macdonald didn’t have to look very far when the assistant coaching position came open in the off-season when graduate assistant Nikki Brown was pro-moted to full-time status.

The first-year assis-tant was instrumen-

tal as a graduate assistant with the program for the past two seasons. After concluding a phenomenal soccer career at the University of North Alabama in 2012, she came on board for the 2013 season. In 2014, JSU defied the preseason prognostications and turned in a 6-4 worksheet within the confer-ence and an 11-win season. Jax State made its fourth OVC Tournament appearance and the first since 2005. JSU made an incredible run in the con-ference tournament, reaching the championship match before falling to SIU Edwardsville in over-time. The Gamecocks opened with a win over UT Martin in penalty kicks in the opening round before dispatching regular season champion and host, Southeast Missouri, 1-0, in the semifinals.

Brown, a native of Bognor Regis, England, helped the Lions to an impressive 63-16-3 record in her four seasons at the Florence, Ala., school. The four-year starter appeared in 81 matches, including 78 starts at UNA. While fighting through injuries the entire 2012 season, Brown finished with 11 points behind two goals and seven assists. Her seven assists tied for sixth in the Gulf South Conference. She was also listed sixth in the league with a .053

assists-per game average. Brown established a new UNA career assist record with 51 over a four-year time frame.

She earned First Team All-GSC distinction in 2009, 2010 and 2011, while being tabbed Second Team All-GSC as a senior. The captain of the 2012 UNA squad also nabbed All-South Region honors from the National Soccer Coaches Association of America. She also gar-nered GSC All-tournament honors after helping lead the lions to the conference championship against West Florida.

Brown started collecting post-season accolades in her freshman season. She was named a First Team Daktronics All-South Region selection three times, while also accumulating Second Team Daktronics All-America honors from 2009-2011.

Her dedication was not left on the pitch, as she excelled in the classroom as well. In 2013, she was awarded with the University of North Alabama Female Student-Athlete of the Year Award because of her work on the field and in the classroom, carrying a 3.77 grade point average as a physical education major. Her academic success also earned her Phi Kappa Phi Honor Society status and a spot on the GSC All-Academic Team.

Brown earned a spot on the GSC’s Top 10 Award for the third consecutive year in June of 2013. The GSC Top 10 Awards are based on athletic, academic and extracurricular achievement during the 2012-13 academic year and recognize the top five male and top five female student-athletes as the cream of the GSC crop.

Brown’s off-campus work includes a reading initia-tive at local elementary schools, coaching a middle school soccer team and volunteering with the local Special Olympics.

She earned her bachelor’s degree in physical edu-cation from UNA in 2013 and received her master’s degree in sports management from JSU in 2015

She is the daughter of Malcolm and Laura Brown.

T H E O H I O V A L L E Y C O N F E R E N C E

Now in its 68th year, the Ohio Valley Conference continues to build on the success that has made it the nation’s eighth-oldest NCAA Division I conference.

In May 2011 the Conference expanded for the second time in four years, adding Belmont University which began competition in the 2012-13 academic year. The addition of Belmont gave the OVC 12 members, the most the league has had at one time in its illustrious history. The move added a second team in the city of Nashville and was the first addition to the league since Southern Illinois University Edwardsville joined in 2008. Subsequently, the league has shown its stability over the past decade, seeing only one member institution depart over the past 14 years.

The 2009-10 school year saw a change in leadership as Beth DeBauche was named the seventh full-time Commissioner in league history on July 28, 2009. The last three commissioners of the OVC have moved onto jobs as the commissioner of the Big Ten, Big 12 and the Mid-American Conferences.

The OVC’s proud history dates back to 1948, but seeds for the new league were actually planted in 1941. It was then that Roy Stewart, the athletics director at Murray State, Charles “Turkey” Hughes, the athletics director at Eastern Kentucky, and Kelly Thompson, the public relations director at Western Kentucky, first broached the idea of forming a new conference. Discussions were put on hold by World War II, but reemerged Feb. 27-28, 1948 at the Kentucky Hotel in Louisville as the three original institutions combined with Morehead State, Louisville and Evansville to form the OVC.

In the 1950s, the OVC became a pioneer on a much more significant scale socially. During times of racial segregation, league member Morehead State became one of the first non-traditionally black mid-southern institu-tions to accept a black student. In 1958 Marshall Banks earned athletically-related aid at Morehead, which signed a second black athlete, Howard Murphy, a year later. In 1961 Murphy earned all-conference recognition as a halfback in football. With racial barriers broken, the rest of the institutions in the league began to provide educational and athletic opportunities to African-Americans.

After Title IX legislation passed in 1972, women’s athletics began a rebirth on the national scene as the NCAA began sponsoring and marketing women’s sports. Recognizing the need to provide increased opportunities for female athletes, the OVC began formulating plans for women’s athlet-ics in 1975 and established women’s championships in the sports of bas-ketball, tennis and track in 1977, with cross country and volleyball added over the next four years. Those sports were initially governed by the Association of Intercollegiate Athletics for Women (AIAW), but the overall strength of women’s programs in the league was demonstrated by the automatic bids the OVC instantly received when the NCAA became the

governing body in 1982. The conference added women’s golf and softball in 1994 and women’s soccer in 1998.

The OVC has also produced several Olympic athletes, including Murray State’s Morgan Hicks, who was a member of the 2004 United States Olympic Rifle Team and Morehead State’s Brian Shimer who competed in five Winter Olympics in bobsled (winning a bronze medal in 2002) and coached the 2010 United States bobsled team to its first gold medal since 1948. Former Morehead State football and Eastern Kentucky track and field athlete Dallas Robinson competed with the U.S. bobsled team during the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics. In addition, some of the greatest players in professional sports were educated at OVC institutions. The list includes former greats such as football’s Phil Simms (Morehead State), basketball’s Clem Haskins (Western Kentucky) and Bubba Wells (Austin Peay) and two-sport star Steve Hamilton (Morehead State) to present-day standouts like basketball player Kenneth Faried (Morehead State), football player Tony Romo (Eastern Illinois) and baseball players A.J. Ellis (Austin Peay) and Shawn Kelley (Austin Peay). Hamilton is the only athlete to ever play in the NCAA Basketball Championship, a Major League Baseball World Series (New York Yankees) and a NBA Championship Series (Los Angeles Lakers).

In 2007 the Conference had two teams in the NCAA Women’s Soccer Tournament for the first time in league history, as former OVC member Samford earned an at-large selection while Southeast Missouri was the Conference’s automatic bid.

The playing field is not the only place where OVC athletes are working hard. The league also recognizes excellence in the classroom. Six Scholar-Athlete Awards are presented yearly to male and female athletes, while others are commended for their academic success by being Medal of Honor recipients or earning a spot on the Commissioner’s Honor Roll. Additionally, the league annually presents one institutional Academic Achievement Award, as well as separate team awards in each Conference-sponsored sport. Since the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA) Academic All-America program began, the Ohio Valley Conference has had 229 student-athletes honored with the award, including 50 over the last five years (2009-10, 2010-11, 2011-12, 2012-13, 2013-14).

Through the early years of the league, administrators wrestled with fan behavior due to the close proximity of the Conference members and the intense rivalries which developed. Just as it did decades ago, the OVC took the leadership role on what has become a national issue. In 1995, the OVC implemented a first-of-its-kind “Sportsmanship Statement,” a policy which promotes principles of fair play, ethical conduct and respect for one’s opponent. The statement has become a model for others to follow across the nation, and has answered the challenge of the NCAA Presidents Commission to improve sportsmanship in collegiate athletics.

Additionally, the OVC annually presents the Steve Hamilton Sportsmanship Award, in honor of the former Morehead State student-athlete, coach and athletics director, to a junior or senior student-athlete with significant athletic contributions who best exemplifies the character-istics of sportsmanship and citizenship. Most recently, the Conference has also implemented the OVC Institutional and Team Sportsmanship Awards, which are presented to one institution and 18 sport-specific teams voted by their peers to have best exhibited the standards of sportsmanship and ethical conduct as outlined by the OVC and NCAA.

The vision of leadership demonstrated by the Founding Fathers in 1948 remains alive today as the Ohio Valley Conference prepares for the future. One example is in regard to the current trend in collegiate athlet-ics administration for increased involvement of university presidents in setting policies and making rules. The presidents of OVC institutions, however, have always governed the Conference, long before presidential governance became a national theme.

The Ohio Valley Conference sponsors the following sports: baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, tennis and track for men, and basketball, cross country, golf, soccer, softball, tennis, track and volleyball for women. In addition, the OVC also sponsors the combined men’s and women’s sport of rifle.

Now in its seventh decade of competition, the Ohio Valley Conference has grown significantly from its humble beginnings while increasing the number of athletics opportunities it provides for students. Current league representatives include charter members Eastern Kentucky University, Morehead State University and Murray State University, along with Austin Peay State University, Belmont University, Eastern Illinois University, Jacksonville State University, Southeast Missouri State University, Southern Illinois University Edwardsville, Tennessee State University, Tennessee Technological University and the University of Tennessee at Martin. In addition Columbus State University serves as an affiliate member for the sport of rifle.

Greg Seitz begins

his 23rd year in the athletic department at Jacksonville State University and has served as interim Athletics Director since January 2, 2015.

Seitz has been with JSU since 1993, when he began working as assistant sports infor-mation director. In 1999, he became Sports Information Director, and then promoted to Associate Athletic Director in 2002. He was then promoted to Senior Associate Athletic Director in 2011, and he also handles game day operations for football, basketball and baseball.Over the last year, Jacksonville State University enjoyed another outstanding athletic year, while also excelling the classroom, under the leadership of Seitz.Both the Jacksonville State men’s and women’s athletics teams were recognized in the final Capital One Cup stand-ings which honors the nation’s best Division I athletic pro-grams. The Gamecock men’s team finished 61st, while the women finished 71st out of 347 NCAA Division I athletic programs.It marks the highest-ever fin-ish for both the men’s and women’s teams, and the third time in the last four years both Gamecock teams have finished in the Top 100. The Gamecocks also finished fourth in the OVC Commissioner’s Cup, marking the seventh straight year the Gamecocks have finished in the Top 6 in the standings.The strong finish by Jacksonville State was led by a pair of Ohio Valley Conference Championships as 15 teams advanced to post-season play in 2015-16, including NCAA appearances by football and rifle.

The Gamecocks have won 61 OVC Championships over the last 11 years, which is 12 more than the next OVC school. JSU has seen nine of its 15 pro-grams bring home various titles and com-bine for 41 trips to the NCAA post-season play.Gamecock student-athletes also excelled in the classroom after 14 teams posted a grade point average of 3.0 or higher, and it marked the fourth-straight year the depart-ment finished above a 3.0, with a cumula-tive 3.15 grade point average, the highest in school history. Additionally, 151 student-athletes were named to the OVC Commissioner Honor Roll with a 3.25 grade point average or higher, which is the most in school his-tory, while another 17 were named to the OVC Medal of Honor Roll with a perfect 4.0 grade point average. A total of 179 Gamecocks student-athletes posted a 3.0

grade point average or higher during the academic year, which is more than 64 per-cent of all of our student-athletes. The Gamecock women’s basketball team was recognized nationally by the Women’s Basketball Coaches Association as an Academic Team Honor Roll member after JSU posted the 14th best team grade point average with a 3.511.
