Jim Toman
Jim Toman enters his fifth year at
Liberty after posting the highest winning percentage (.617) of any head
baseball coach in program history during his first four years in Lynchburg.
The Flames posted a school record
for wins with a 42-19 campaign in 2010
and have won 35 or more games in
three of his four seasons at the helm of
program. Liberty notched a 145-90-1
overall record during his first four seasons on Liberty Mountain. The Flames
have also posted a 68-33 Big South
mark over the span. His .673 conference winning percentage is the best of
any head coach in program history.
This past June, Toman saw seven
players from his Flames squad selected during the 2011 Major League
Baseball Draft, the most players
chosen in a single draft in the 38-year
history of the program. The number
ties the 2007 and 2010 Coastal Carolina squads for the Big South Conference record for players picked in a
single draft.
The impressive strides made by the
program have not gone unnoticed.
During November of 2010, Rivals.
com cited Liberty as one of college
baseball’s top 10 rising programs.
Toman was named the sixth head
coach in the history of the Liberty
Baseball program in June 2007, after
11 seasons as the senior member of
Ray Tanner’s coaching staff at South
Carolina. Toman worked a total of 18
years alongside Tanner, dating back to
the 1990 season at N.C. State.
During his time at South Carolina,
Toman served as recruiting coordinator and coached the catchers. Known
as one of the top recruiters in college
baseball, the 22-year college coaching
veteran was named the 2002 Baseball
America/American Baseball Coaches
Association Assistant Coach of the
Year. Before joining the Gamecock
staff in 1996, Toman served under
Tanner for seven years at N.C. State.
A native of Monroeville, Pa., Toman is married to the former Ashley
McLaughlin of Florence, S.C., and
lives in Forest, Va. They have three
children - Caroline (14), Charlie Mac
(11), and Tucker (8).

history.
A Look Back at Virginia Win
• The victory was the first for the Flames against Virginia since a 9-7 win in Lynchburg on March 5,
2002, a span of eight games in the series.
• The victory was also Liberty’s first over a nationally ranked team since the Flames defeated No. 13
Coastal Carolina at the Big South Conference Tournament on May 24, 2008 in Danville, Va.
• Liberty pitchers, Tim Dudley, Blake Forslund and Kody Young, combined to hold the Cavaliers in
check, allowing two hits and recording the fourth shutout of the year for the Flames.
• Forslund followed with 3 2/3 scoreless innings of work. The right-hander, who transferred to Liberty from Virginia in 2010, did not allow a hit, striking out five batters and walking five to record his
first win of the year.
Remembering Joe Feeley
• This past Friday night, the Liberty baseball program gave a moment of silence for former Liberty
baseball player Joseph Feeley, who passed away of a rare form of cancer, Ewings Sarcoma, last
Tuesday.
• Feeley was a member of the Liberty baseball roster in 2008 and 2009 and remained close to the
program after transferring to Frostburg State in the fall of 2009.
• Feeley will be remembered by those that knew him at Liberty for his steadfast faith in God, his
character, his determination and his unwavering encouragement.
Toman Reaches 150th Career Win
• With Liberty’s 6-3 victory over Radford on Feb. 22, head coach Jim Toman reached 150 victories
for his career. Toman has posted a 154-90-1 record, as head coach of the Flames.
• Toman led the Flames to the best mark and winning percentage of any head coach during his first
four years at Liberty (145-90-1, .617)
• The Flames finished 2011 with a 35-24 mark, the third time they have won 35 or more games
under Toman.
• In 2010, Liberty posted a school-record 42-19 mark, eclipsing the previous school standard of 40
set by the 1983 Liberty team. The 2010 season was the second time in the program’s history a
team posted 40 or more wins in a year.
MLB Draft Picks Dot Roster
• Three players on Liberty’s 2011 roster have been selected in previous Major League Baseball Drafts.
• Oufielder Tony McClendon has been selected in two MLB Drafts.

STADIUM TO BE
LOCATED NEXT TO THE
RECENTLY EXPANDED
WILLIAMS STADIUM.
The 2012 season will be
Liberty baseball’s last year at
Worthington Stadium. A new
baseball facility adjacent to
recently expanded Williams
Stadium, home of Liberty
football, and Osborne
Stadium, home of both Liberty soccer and track & field programs, is set to open for
the 2013 home opener. The construction of the new baseball facility is the latest
dramatic improvement to athletics facilities at Liberty in recent years. The stadium
could eventually seat up to 2,500 spectators and will enhance a developing
athletics corridor at the University.
The intercollegiate baseball stadium will
replace Worthington Stadium, which
has been the team’s home since 1979.
Liberty will close out its time at the
complex this year with an eight-game
homestand from April 24-May 13,
highlighted by Big South Conference
series against Coastal Carolina and
High Point.
