McNeese Cowgirls2

Head Coach2nd Year Joanna

HARDIN Head coach Joanna Hardin is in her second season as head coach of the Cowgirls and fourth overall at McNeese. Hardin posted a 36-20 overall record in her first season as a Division I head coach. She led McNeese to a second place finish in the Southland Conference with a 21-5 record, the second most SLC wins in McNeese history. A key element in the sustained success of the McNeese Cowgirl softball program that won back-to-back Southland Conference championships, Hardin was named head coach in 2014 after spending the 2013 season as a Cowgirl assistant coach. Hardin, a native of Fullerton, Calif., has spearheaded the Cowgirl pitching staff the last three seasons, all of which led the Southland in numerous team and individual pitching statistical categories as well as ranking high among the NCAA leaders. In 2015 Hardin coached the programs first NFCA All-American in Erika Piancastelli. Piancastelli was also named an NFCA Top 10 Freshman of the Year Finalist as well as being named the league’s player, hitter and freshman of the year, honors no other player has won in the same season. The Cowgirls continued to rewrite the record books, breaking the single game stolen bases record and the slugging percent and on base percent records in 2015. The Cowgirls ranked in the Top 50 in the nation

in ERA, stolen bases and triples per game. Four of her players ranked in the Top 50 in the nation in 11 different statistical categories. Her pitching staff included two of the top four pitcher in the SLC that produced the lowest ERA and ranked 44th in the nation. In 2014, the Cowgirls broke or tied a total of 23 school or conference records. Hardin joined the McNeese staff in 2013 and guided the pitchers to a Top 10 national ranking and No. 1 spot in the Southland in team ERA with a 1.79 mark. That squad also led the league in opponent batting average (.220), saves (6), hits allowed (294), runs allowed (122), earned runs allowed (91), walks allowed (53) and extra-base hits allowed (63). Individually, Hardin helped develop the league’s top pitcher in Megan Bond, who topped the conference in ERA (1.27), opponent batting average (.200), and saves (3) in 2013. The success continued in 2014 as the Cowgirls won a school record 41 games en route to their second straight league title. Jamie Allred, the 2014 SLC Pitcher of the Year, set a new school record with 27 victories as well as throwing 10 shutouts in the season. Her exceptional play helped boast the Cowgirls to a league No. 1 ranking in 12 team categories including ERA (1.86), strikeouts (324) and hits allowed (293), just to name a few. In addition to the team success on offense, Alanna DiVittorio broke a combined nine school and conference records during the season including season records in runs scored, walks and stolen bases as well as career records in runs scored and walks. DiVittorio, the league’s player and hitter of the year, also became just the second McNeese softball player to earn Capital One Academic All-America honors when she was voted onto the second team. ”We have tremendous young women in our program,” said Hardin. “The goals and expectations will remain the same as they have been – to be champions on and off the field.” Hardin began her coaching career as the head coach at Whittier Christian High School, in La Habra, Calif., from 2005-07 and helped guide the Heralds to an Olympic League Championship Title in 2006. From 2007-09, Hardin served as assistant coach at Liberty University (Lynchburg, Va.) where she oversaw the pitching staff, conducted camps and clinics, and organized daily practices. In her two years at Liberty, the team finished the 2008 and 2009 season as the Big South Conference Tournament Runners-up. Under her tutelage, Tiffani Smith (2011 graduate), was selected to the All-Big South Conference First Team as a sophomore year, the first Flame to receive such honor since 2001. After earning her Master’s Degree from Liberty University, Hardin started and coached a successful 12U/14U travel team, The Virginia Titans, in 2009. In 2010, while coaching the Titans, she served as head coach at Jefferson Forest High School where she led the Lady Cavaliers to the 2012 Seminole District Tournament Championship, a Virginia High School League Region III runner-up finish, and advancing the Lady Cavs to the VHSL State quarterfinals. In 2010, while coaching club and high school softball, Hardin opened and managed an indoor softball training facility in Virginia called “The Compound” where she worked primarily as a pitching and hitting instructor.

Finch, a native of La Mirada, California, was a pitcher and first-baseman for the University of Arizona, the USA national softball team and the Chicago Bandits. Finch won the 2001 Women's College World Series and helped lead Team USA to the gold medal at the 2004 Summer Olympics and a silver medal at the 2008 Summer Olympics. Time magazine described her as the most famous softball player in history. In 2010, Finch retired from softball to focus on her family. In August 2011 she started work as a color analyst for ESPN doing National Pro Fastpitch and college softball games. Finch began her career by achieving a career high in doubles and throwing her first career no-hitter during the 1999 NCAA tournament against Texas State. Despite making the World Series, the Wildcats were eventually eliminated by DePaul. As a sophomore year, Finch was named a 2000 NFCA First Team All-American and First Team All-Pac 10. She also threw three no-hitters and led the Wildcats in home runs and slugging percentage and achieved a career best in hits and batting average. Finch began the year with a 21 consecutive game win

streak. After suffering her only losses in back-to-back games, Finch finished the year 8–0 starting a new streak against the Oregon Ducks that would span the next two seasons. Finch's 29th win, a World Series victory over the No. 1 seeded Washington Huskies, began a 35 scoreless inning streak, after allowing runs in the fourth inning she pitched a shutout the rest of the way for a 4–2 win. As a junior in 2001, Finch was once again named NFCA First Team and All-Pac 10, adding the Pitcher of The Year award to her resume. She was awarded the Honda Sports Award for Softball Player of The Year. Finch's season ERA, wins and shutouts were and still do rank among the Top 10 at Arizona. Along with a no-hitter and career highs in WHIP and RBIs, Finch opened the season with 31 consecutive scoreless innings spanning 6 wins that combined with the innings from her last game in 2000, was a career best 35 before being snapped in the second inning by a lead off home run vs. McNeese State. On March 30, Finch hit two home runs and a double in an 11–1 romp of the Oregon to drive in a career best 9 RBIs, which tied her third all-time in the NCAA for a single game. Finch and the Wildcats were the No. 1 seed in the NCAA tournament and made it to the World Series for a third straight year with Finch on the mound. She recorded victories over California and Oklahoma to reach the finals. In a 1–0 shutout against UCLA, Finch set an NCAA record with a perfect season capped with the National Championship. Finch also had a hit in the game and was named MVP for the series. The victory extended her win streak to 40 consecutive games along with the 8 to end the 2000 season. In her final season, Finch was named 2002 First Team for the NCAA and the Pac 10 conference as well as Pitcher of The Year and Honda Player of The Year. Finch tossed 3 no-hitters and broke the season strikeouts record, while her wins and shutouts were and remain Top-10 school records. Against Cal State Fullerton, Finch matched her own record of 35 consecutive scoreless innings that was broken in a 13–1 mercy win over Northern Iowa. Finch set several records in single games beginning with a new NCAA record by winning her 51st consecutive game in the 6–0 victory over Cal State Northridge. For one of her no-hitters, Finch posted her 100th career victory over Notre Dame and struck out 15 against UL-Lafayette for a career best. Finch tied a then school record of 19 strikeouts with a 1-0, 9 inning shutout against Oklahoma. The Wildcat then beat the UCLA to start the year 20–0 and set an NCAA record with 60 straight wins dating back to the 2000 season, as Finch would lose her next decision. To open a return trip to the WCWS as defending champion, Finch shutout Nebraska and ended the game with her 1,000th career strikeout. In the semifinals of the World Series, Finch hit her 50th career home run to score the winning run and help herself beat the Florida State in 11 innings.

1980’s he and his wife Sandra were active writers, publishing a series of children’s mysteries, adult mysteries, and non-fiction works. In 1994, Dr. Williams returned to Chapel Hill to earn his M.P.H. and Ph.D. degrees in Health Policy and Administration.

Bruce HempHillAthletic Director

Bruce Hemphill is in his third year as athletic director for McNeese after the former associate AD at the University of Wyoming and assistant to the AD at the University of North Carolina became the ninth athletics director in school history in August of 2013. “Bruce understands the role athletics plays in the larger university environment and he understands the difficulty we face with the athletic budget and the importance of increasing revenue through private sources and auxiliary means,” said McNeese President Dr. Philip Williams.

The first two years under Hemphill was an eventful one as McNeese’s athletic programs excelled both on the playing field and in the classroom. Academically, McNeese set a school record in the 2013-14 sport season by having five players named as the Southland Conference Student-Athlete of the Year for their respective sports. The program also led all conference schools in the 2014 spring semester with 21 student-athletes compiling a perfect 4.0 grade point average. And Cowgirl softball player Alana DiVittorio became just the second player in the sport to earn Capital One Academic All-America honors. McNeese received the Southland Conference Academic Progress Award for the 2014-15 for posting the highest APR score in the league. McNeese football was the only team recognized from the Southland Conference as the recipient of the Football Championship Subdivision Athletics Directors Association (FCS ADA) APR Award. Athletically, McNeese finished fourth out of 13 teams in the Commisioner’s Cup Standings - the highest placing since finishing fourth in the 2002-03 season. It’s also the sixth straight year McNeese has been the highest finishing school among Louisiana SLC league teams. Ten of the school’s 16 sports programs finished fifth or higher in their respective sport standings. In the 2013-14 sports season, McNeese finished fifth out of the 14 SLC schools for the 2013-14 SLC Commissioner’s Cup standings. The Cowgirl softball team won a school record 40 games en route to its second consecutive league championship and the Cowboy football team won 10 games and qualified for its league-record 15th FCS playoff appearance. In addition, the men’s and women’s basketball teams as well as volleyball, tennis, baseball and softball, all qualified for the league postseason tournament. During his two years as Director of Athletics, Hemphill worked with the McNeese administration to gain the support of legislation, boosters and private donors for the new $44 million Health and Human Performance Complex that will also become the home for McNeese men’s and women’s basketball and volleyball teams. The Sulphur, La., native has 26 years administrative experience at the collegiate and high school levels. He supervised 10 of 17 programs offered at a major Division 1 university and was responsible for budget oversight, game operations, facilities, personnel, compliance, team travel and recruiting. He earned his bachelor’s and master’s degrees from Louisiana State University where he was a three-year letterman in football and won All-Academic Southeast Conference honors at wide receiver. His professional experience began at LSU where he was a graduate assistant and assistant football coach. In 1984, after serving as the supervisor for health and physical education for the Louisiana Department of Education, he returned to collegiate athletics and served for two years as an assistant football coach at Louisiana Tech University. In 1987 he became the recruiting coordinator at North Carolina State University. From 1989-1990 he served as the assistant recruiting coordinator at the University of South Carolina. He joined the athletics department staff at the University of North Carolina in 1990 and served eight years as assistant to the athletics director and director of recruiting. From 1999-2003 he was associate athletics director at the University of Wyoming. In 2003 he returned to North Carolina and accepted a position as athletics director at a 4A high school, the largest classification in the state. Hemphill has two sons - James, 20, a junior basketball player at the United States Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland, and Jack, 16, a junior in high school; and a daughter, Hayden, 19, a freshman at SMU and is a member of the school’s Crew (rowing) team.
