All Times Eastern Standard Time
After leading his team to a school-record 42 victories in 2010, Jim Toman enters his fourth year
at Liberty with the best mark of any Flames head coach over his first three years.
Since taking over the program for the 2008 season, Liberty has won 35 or more games twice
and last season posted only the second 40-win campaign in the 37-year history of the program. The
Flames notched a 110-66-1 record during his first three seasons on Liberty Mountain.
On May 2, 2010, Toman recorded his 100th career victory, as the Flames defeated GardnerWebb, 10-7, at Worthington Stadium. The sixth coach in program history, Toman became the fastest Liberty baseball head coach to amass the milestone, passing first coach Al Worthington, by
reaching his 100th win in 160 games, six fewer than Worthington.
The impressive strides made by the program have not gone unnoticed. This past November,
Rivals.com cited Liberty as one being one of college baseball’s top 10 rising programs.
Last season, the Flames had their best season under Toman, posting a school record for wins
in a single season with a 42-19 record. The team’s ledger was boosted by a 21-8 road mark, the
nation’s 10th-best road record in 2010.
In addition, Liberty recorded a 19-7 mark in Big South play, eclipsing its record of the previous
season for most victories by the school since joining the conference in 1992. The Flames finished
second in the league’s regular season and were conference runner-up at the Big South Baseball
Championship.
Pitcher Shawn Teufel became the fourth player from one of Toman’s Liberty squads to be taken
in the MLB Draft. The two-time Big South all-conference first team pitcher and National Pitcher of
the Year Watch list member capped a strong senior campaign by being selected by the Detroit
Tigers.
In 2009, Liberty recorded a 33-21 overall record, while posting a 17-9 mark in Big South Conference play. Liberty set a new fielding standard in 2009, committing the fewest errors, 53, and
finishing the year with the highest fielding percentage, .974, in team history. From that infield, third
baseman Tyler Bream was named a Freshman All-American by the Collegiate Baseball News.
Pitcher Andrew Wilson became the third player during Toman’s time at Liberty to be taken in
the MLB draft (Atlanta Braves).
In 2008, the Flames fashioned a 13-3-1 record in the month of May to finish Toman’s first season at Liberty with a 35-26-1 mark. The record made Toman the winningest first-year coach in the
program’s history. He guided the Flames to their third straight Big South Championship title game
appearance, claiming the conference’s runner-up position in 2008. Liberty’s May record was the
best ever by a Flames team.
In addition, the Liberty pitching staff set a new season strikeout record, fanning 508 opposing batters during the year. The Flames’ strikeout total led the Big South Conference and their 8.2
strikeouts per nine innings ranked 22nd nationally at season’s end. Two pitchers from the staff,
Ryan Page and David Stokes, went on to be drafted and play in the professional ranks. Page was
taken in the 20th round of the MLB Draft by the Toronto Blue Jays, while Stokes was picked in the
28th round by the Detroit Tigers.
Liberty finished its season with a 14-7 record in conference play. The mark allowed the Flames
to claim the No. 2 seed for the Big South Championship, their highest seed for the Big South Baseball Championship since a No. 1 seed in 2000. Liberty would go on to post four consecutive doubledigit victories during six games in the Big South Championship to set a championship record with
55 runs scored.
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.
Toman has recruited 15 top 25 classes, including all 11 of his seasons at South Carolina. During his final years with the Gamecocks, he recruited many of the players who were members of the
2010 South Carolina National Championship team. From 2003-2006, three of the four Gamecock
recruiting classes were ranked first in the nation by Collegiate Baseball.
During his time on the staff in Columbia, S.C., Toman and the Gamecocks made nine NCAA
Regional appearances, including eight straight between 2000 and 2007, and three consecutive
trips to the College World Series (2002-04). Add in his seven seasons at N.C. State, and Toman
has helped lead 14 teams to NCAA Regional appearances.
Toman was a four-year letterwinner at N.C. State from 1981-84, and served as team captain of
the Wolfpack his junior and senior seasons.

Toman Reaches 100 Coaching Wins
With a 10-7 win over Gardner-Webb on May 2, 2010, Liberty head coach Jim Toman
recorded his 100th career coaching win.
Of the six head coaches in Liberty history, Toman becomes the fastest to reach 100
coaching victories. Toman reached the milestone in 160 games, eclipsing program founder and first head coach Al Worthington, who reached his 100th win in 166 games.
The Coaches
Liberty Head Coach Jim Toman is in his fourth year at the helm of the Flames. During
his time at Liberty, he has guided the Flames to a 122-76-1 record. He led the Flames to
the best mark of any Liberty head coach over his first three seasons on Liberty Mountain.
Last season, the Flames had their best year under Toman, posting a school record
for wins in a single season with a 42-19 record. The team’s ledger was boosted by a 21-8
road mark, the nation’s 10th best road record in 2010.
In addition, Liberty recorded a 19-7 mark in Big South play, eclipsing its record of the
previous season for most victories by the school since joining the conference in 1992. The
Flames finished second in the league’s regular season and were conference runner-up at
the Big South Baseball Championship.
In 2009, Liberty posted the most victories in Big South Conference play with a 17-9
mark, since joining the conference in 1992. The Flames recorded an overall record of
33-21 in Toman’s second year.
A 24-year member of the college coaching ranks, he served 18 years as a member
of Ray Tanner’s staffs at South Carolina and N.C. State. Toman was named the 2002
Baseball America/American Baseball Coaches Association Assistant Coach of the Year
and recruited 15 top 25 classes, including all 11 of his seasons at South Carolina.
Winthrop is in its first year under Tom Riginos, who was officially introduced as the
new baseball coach at Winthrop University on August 4, 2010. He is just the third head
coach in the program’s history.
Riginos, pronounced rih-JEEN-uhs, takes over the Eagle baseball program after
spending the previous eight seasons on the Clemson baseball staff under head coach
Jack Leggett. He spent the past three years as the associate head coach/recruiting coordinator for the Tigers, and was an assistant head coach from 2003-07. A 20-year member
of the coaching ranks, Riginos also was an assistant coach at Stetson and Eastern Kentucky.
All-Time Series Against Winthrop
Friday’s meeting will be the 74th meeting between the Flames and the Eagles on the
diamond. Winthrop holds a razor-thin 38-35 edge in the all-time series between the two
teams.
Last season, the Eagles and Flames met five times, three during the regular season
at Winthrop and twice in the Big South Baseball Championship also in Rock Hill, S.C.
Behind Steven Evans, Liberty took the first meeting, 8-2, on May 20, 2010, only to see the
host Eagles take the final two games of the series, 11-2 and 8-5.
The Flames, the second seed, and Winthrop, the fifth seed, then met the following
week at the Big South tournament. Liberty took an 8-5 victory to advance on March 26
and later in an elimination contest, defeated the Eagles, 9-7 on May 28.

Get Your Running Shoes On
What a difference a year makes. So far this season, Liberty has tried to take advantage of its team speed, doubling its stolen base total from a year ago. The Flames have
stolen 42 bases in 52 attempts this season, compared to 2010, when the Flames swiped
only 17 bases in 26 tries through 22 games. Liberty’s 42 stolen bases leads Radford by
one for the Big South Conference lead.
Leading the way for the Flames is catcher Casey Rasmus who is 11-for-11 in steal
attempts this season. He is currently third in the Big South Conference in steals. Center
fielder Ian Parmley who is next with eight thefts (8-for-11).
The Flames stolen base totals are definitely a stark contrast from last season, when
only outfielder Curran Redal had stolen five bases at this point in the year. This season,
four Liberty players have five or more base thefts. Outfielders Michael Robertson (six)
and Doug Bream join the previously mentioned Rasmus and Parmley, with five or more
stolen bases.
Casey Rasmus - Base Cop
Flames catcher Casey Rasmus has been tough to on base stealers this season.
The junior has thrown out 48% (12-of-25) would-be base thieves this year. Rasmus
leads the Big South Conference in caught base stealers.
On the flip side, the catcher leads Liberty and ranks third in the Big South with 11
steals. Rasmus is 11-for-11 in steal attempts.
Evans Pitches Way into Record Book
With a career-high 12 strikeouts in a 5-2, complete-game victory over Charleston
Southern last Sunday, senior left-hander Steven Evans moved into seventh on Liberty’s
all-time strikeout list with 219, surpassing Randy Tomlin who had 211 for the Flames from
1986-88. With one strikeout this weekend, he will tie Lee Guetterman (1978-81) on the
career K list. Mike Brown is Liberty’s career strikeout leader with 287. Evans is currently
tied for second in the Big South with 34 strikeouts this season.
Also with the victory, Evans moved into a tie for eighth on the program’s career
wins list with 21. The senior, who has a career record of 21-10, is tied with Kyle Bryan
(1981-85), Doug Smith (1980-82) and Brian Harrell (1996-2000) on the all-time list. The
previously mentioned Guetterman won 29 games during his career topping the Liberty
all-time wins list.
A fixture of the Flame pitching staff over the past four years, Evans has a 21-10 record with a 3.60 ERA. The left-hander has pitched 255 1/3 innings, striking out the 219
and walking 84 batters, a 2.6 to 1 strikeout to walk ratio.
Leaning On Linza
Senior right-hander Keegan Linza is off to a strong start this season, becoming a
reliable part of the Liberty starting rotation this season.
The right-hander has posted a 4-0 record with a 2.33 ERA during his five starts. He
has struck out 30 and walked five, while leading the Big South Conference with 38 2/3
innings pitched. In his last four starts, the senior has not allowed more than two runs.
Linza has thrown back-to-back complete games in his last two outings in victories
over Rutgers and Charleston Southern to up his career total to three.
On March 11 against Rutgers at the Keith LeClair Classic, the senior held off the
Scarlet Knights in the ninth inning for a 5-2 win. Linza gave up two runs on seven hits
over the full nine innings. He struck out five and did not walk a batter. He retired the
first 10 Scarlet Knight batters to face him in the contest and did not allow a runner past
second base until the seventh inning, when Rutgers scored its first run of the contest.
This past Friday, the Salisbury, N.C., native went the distance again in a 2-1 victory
over Charleston Southern, setting the table for a weekend sweep. Linza scattered eight
hits over nine innings, striking out a career-high 10 batters and walking one. The right
hander’s 10 punchouts eclipse his previous career high of eight in an 11-2 win over Kennesaw State during his first appearance in a Liberty uniform on Feb. 20, 2010.
With a 12-0 career record, the right-hander has not lost since joining the Flames in
2010.

Picking Up the Pace
With new bats and new rules to speed up time between innings and govern mound
visits, the time Flames contests have been played in this season has seen a significant
drop. So far this season, Liberty games have run an average of 2:31, compared to 2:45
minutes at this point in the season in 2010, a 14-minute difference.
Last season through 22 games, Liberty had already played six games which lasted
three hours or longer, with the the longest being 3:43 in a 14-13, 10 inning setback to Manhattan on March 20. This season, the Flames have had only three games go over three
hours, the longest 3:11 in a 17-5 loss in game two of a twinbill at Mercer on Feb. 19.
Are New Bats Affecting Power Numbers?
How much has the new bat affected play this season? The Flames have 20 less hits
than last season through 22 games and have seen their extra base hits drop. The Flames
have 50 extra base hits - 35 doubles, three triples and 12 home runs, so far in 2011. Liberty has a .382 slugging percentage.
In comparison at this point last season, the Flames had 25 more extra base hits or
33% more than this season. Jim Toman’s 2010 club had 75 extra base hits - 54 doubles,
three triples and 18 home runs at this point in the season. Also, it had a .453 slugging
percentage.
It is What I Like About Sunday
Liberty has opened the year 4-0 in games played on Sunday. In those games, the
Flames have outscored their opponents, 21-7, and has a .254 batting average compared
to a .173 for their opponents.
Led by starter Steven Evans, who has recorded both of his wins this season on Sunday, Liberty pitchers have posted a 1.75 ERA over their four games.
Complete Games Highlight Sweep
Each of Liberty’s starting pitchers of its three-game Big South series pitched a complete game, keying a sweep of the Charleston Southern Buccaneers in the first conference series of the year.
After allowing a combined four runs the previous week at the Keith LeClair Classic,
Liberty starters, Keegan Linza, John Niggli and Steven Evans once again turned the trick,
holding the Buccaneers to four runs over the entire three-game series.
Linza got things started, Friday. The senior right-hander outdueled his Charleston
Southern counterpart, going the distance in his second consecutive outing in a 2-1 win.
Linza allowed one run on eight hits, striking out a career-high 10 to run his record to 4-0
on the year.
Niggli followed-up with a gem of his own on Saturday afternoon. The junior righthander threw his first complete game in a Liberty uniform in a 5-1 victory. Niggli gave up
one run on five hits, striking out four. From the third inning on, the junior dominated, not
allowing a Charleston Southern hit until a two-out infield single in the ninth inning. During
the stretch, the Liberty right-hander allowed only two runners to reach, on a walk in the
fifth and another walk in the sixth inning.
On Sunday, Evans made it three consecutive complete games, pitching his first of the
season and the fifth of his career in a 5-2 victory over the Buccaneers. He allowed two
runs on six hits, fanning 12 to set a new career-high and walked one.
Baker Comes Up Big at Maryland
A strong relief appearance by Garrett Baker and seven extra base hits propelled the
Liberty Flames past the Maryland Terrapins, 11-4, March 15 at Smith Stadium in College
Park, Md.
Baker entered the contest with the bases loaded, no one out and one run already in
for Maryland in the first inning and quickly restored order in the contest. The junior allowed
only an unearned run, scattering three hits over eight effective innings. The left-hander
struck out five and walked none, running his record to 2-0. He retired seven consecutive
batters from the second through the fourth inning and later, finished his outing by setting
down 12 Terrapins in order.

the season, while Jefferson’s roundtripper was his second on the year.

Fielding
Pitchers Lead the Way at LeClair Classic
Liberty captured the 2011 Keith LeClair Classic in Greenville, N.C., March 11-13 with
a 3-0 record. Keying the title run were the efforts of Flames starting pitchers Keegan
Linza, John Niggli and Steven Evans.
Linza got things started on March 11, firing the first complete game of the season by
a Liberty starting pitcher in a 5-2 victory over Rutgers. The senior right-hander allowed
two runs on seven hits, striking out five and not walking a Scarlet Knight batter.
Linza retired the first 10 Scarlet Knight batters to face him in the contest and did not
allow a runner past second base until the seventh inning, when Rutgers scored its first
run of the contest. With the win, he runs his record to 3-0 on the year.
The following day, right-hander John Niggli pitched seven strong innings to pick up
his second victory of the year in a 4-3 win over Monmouth. The junior gave up two runs
on six hits, striking out one and walking none over the first seven innings, before being
relieved by Garrett Baker. He followed with 1 2/3 innings of relief, allowing a run on one
hit. J.J. McLeod faced one batter, getting the final out of the contest to earn his first save
of the year.
Left-hander Steven Evans capped the weekend by handcuffing the host East Carolina Pirates in his longest outing of the year, propelling the Liberty Flames to a 2-0 victory, March 13. The senior left-hander held the Pirate hitters in check during his outing,
scattering four hits over 7 1/3 scoreless innings to pick up his first victory of 2011. The
left-hander struck out a season-high nine batters and walked three, running his record
to 1-3 on the season. He retired the last eight batters he faced, before giving way to
reliever Dane Beakler with one out. Beakler completed the shutout with 1 2/3 innings of
scoreless relief, as Liberty claimed the title.
The combined shutout was the first by the Flames’ pitching staff since left-hander
Shawn Teufel pitched his second complete game of the year in leading the Liberty Flames to
a 13-0 shutout victory over the Presbyterian Blue Hose, April 24, 2010. Teufel scattered five
hits over nine innings, striking out eight and walking two.

Liberty shortstop Matt Williams started his year on a high note, Feb. 18-20 at
Mercer. The junior hit a team-high .533 with a double, triple, two runs scored and
three RBIs during the Flames’ season-opening series.
Williams was one of two Flames to collect four hits in a contest during the

Feb. 19. Designated hitter Ian Parmley also had four hits in his first game in a
Liberty uniform in the team’s season opener, Feb. 18.
Season-long Road Trip Starts Year

season. Durning the swing, Liberty traveled to Mercer, North Florida and Virginia
Tech for games to begin the year. During the trip, the Flames traveled 2,314
miles. Its trip to Jacksonville, Fla., Feb. 25-27, for a four-game series with North
Florida was the longest road trip of the year for head coach Jim Toman’s squad.
Connections - Part I
Three Liberty Flames, catcher Casey Rasmus, third baseman Tyler Bream
and infielder Austin Taylor, each have connections to Major League Baseball
through family members.
Rasmus, a junior, is in his first season as a member of the Liberty roster. His
brother Colby is a member of the St. Louis Cardinals and enters his third season
as an outfielder with the team in 2011.
Bream, also a junior, is the son of former major leaguer Sid Bream. Sid
Bream, a Liberty standout during his collegiate days, played 12 seasons in the
majors (1983-94) with the Los Angeles Dodgers, Pittsburgh Pirates, Atlanta
Braves and Houston Astros.
Taylor, a senior, is the nephew of former major leaguer Bill Taylor. Bill Taylor
spent parts of eight seasons with the Oakland A’s, New York Mets and Tampa
Bay Rays.
Connections - Part II
Three Flames are carrying on a family tradition, as a member of their family
formerly played baseball at Liberty.
First baseman/outfielder Doug Bream’s uncle Dave was a member of the
Liberty baseball program from 1982-85.
Third baseman Tyler Bream’s father, Sid, and two uncles, Dave and Sheldon,
were members of the Flames. Sid, who went on to play in the major leagues, was
a standout for Liberty on the diamond from 1979-81. The first baseman and Liberty Athletics Hall of Fame member was named a NAIA and NABC All-American
in 1981, as the Flames reached the NAIA National Tournament.
Bream’s uncles, Dave and Sheldon, were also members of the Flames baseball team during their college days. Dave played infield for Liberty from 1982-85,
while Sheldon was an outfielder with the Flames from 1989-93. Tyler and Doug
are second cousins.

and Steve, played for the Flames. Jason patrolled the
outfield for the Flames from 1993-95, earning first team
All-Big South honors in 1995. Steve was also an outfielder at Liberty from 1999-02. He was named to the Big

in early November.
The Liberty program was mentioned along with Auburn, Oregon, Washington State, New Mexico, Connecticut, Pitt, Texas State, Florida International and Florida
Atlantic.
MLB Draft Picks Dot Roster
A trio of players, who are on the Liberty roster for
2011, have been selected in the Major League Baseball
Draft. Senior Austin Taylor and juniors Michael Robertson and Tony McClendon have each been selected in a
Major League Draft.
Taylor, an infielder, was drafted out of Thomas County Central High School by the Cincinnati Reds in 2007.
The junior college transfer was taken in the 43rd round.
Robertson was also picked in the MLB Draft by the
Cincinnati Reds in 2009. The outfielder was selected in
the 40th round of the draft.
McClendon, in his first year as a Flame, has been
selected in two different MLB Drafts. The outfielder was
taken in 2008 by the Houston Astros in the 40th round.
Last year, McClendon was chosen by the Oakland A’s in
the 47th round.
California Dreaming
Six 2011 Flames hail from the Golden State, the second highest number on the roster next to Liberty’s home
state of Virginia. Seven members of the Liberty roster
are natives of Virginia. Four Flames each hail from the
states of Florida, Georgia, North Carolina and Washington, while three are Pennsylvania natives. States also
represented on the Liberty roster are Alabama, Arizona,
New York, South Carolina and Tennessee.
The Captains
Seniors Jeff Jefferson, Mark Swanson and Steven
Evans, along with junior Tyler Bream have been chosen
as captains for the 2011 Liberty Baseball team. The four
were selected by virtue of a team vote.
The Last Time
By Liberty
Back-to-Back Home Runs - Curran Redal and Doug Bream connected for back-to-back home runs to lead off the fifth inning,
putting Liberty in front 8-4 over Presbyterian at Worthington Stadium, March 29, 2009. The home runs were two of the Flames’
three home runs in the frame, as first baseman Trey Wimmer later hit a three-run home run. The Flames went on to defeat
the Blue Hose, 14-7.
Five or More RBIs in a Game - Catcher Nathan Thompson had four hits, including a home run, and drove in seven runs in
Liberty’s 16-9, 10-inning victory over Presbyterian College, April 25, 2010 at the PC Baseball Complex in Clinton, S.C.
Inside the Park Home Run - Kenneth Negron belted a liner into the right field gap which glanced off the Coastal Carolina right
fielder’s glove to cash in two runners at Charles Watson Stadium in Conway, S.C. on April 28, 2007. When the ball rolled all the
way to the wall, the Liberty second baseman came home and scored standing up for his first home run of the season, knotting
the back-and-forth contest with the No. 19 Chanticleers at 7-7. Coastal Carolina rallied in the bottom of the eighth inning to take
the contest, 9-7.
Grand Slam Home Run - Trailing 9-5 in the seventh inning, catcher Errol Hollinger drove a 1-0 pitch over the left field wall at
Masters Field in Boiling Springs, N.C., tying the visiting Flames with the Gardner-Webb Bulldogs, April 26, 2009. Liberty was
down 9-3 in the contest after six innings. The Flames later won the game in the 11th inning, 10-9, on a lead-off home run by
first baseman Trey Wimmer.
Cycle - Third baseman Chad Miller hit for the cycle in his first four at bats as the Flames downed the Longwood Lancers, 8-0,
April 18, 2006 in a non-conference contest at Worthington Stadium. Miller led off the home half of the first inning with a home
run and in the second, drove in a run with a double to the wall off the left field wall. In the fourth, the third baseman singled and
completed the cycle in the sixth inning with a triple. Miller had two RBIs and scored four runs in the contest.
No-Hitter - Dan Valentin pitched a seven-inning no-hitter against Elon on April 16, 2000, at Worthington Stadium, marking the
first no-hitter by a Flames pitcher in 20 years. Valentin walked seven batters and struck out eight in the game to give Liberty a
4-0 win. This game sparked three-consecutive shutouts for Valentin, during a span of 29-consecutive scoreless innings.
Shutout - Steven Evans handcuffed the East Carolina Pirates over 7 1/3 innings, giving up three hits and striking out nine batters, and Dane Beakler pitched a scoreless 1 2/3 innings to close out the contest in a 2-0 Liberty win, March13 at Clark-LeClair
Stadium in Greenville, N.C.
Triple Play - Liberty has never recorded a triple play.
By an Opponent
Back-to-Back Home Runs - Mercer catcher Travis Benn and left fielder Derrick Workman led off the third inning with back-toback home runs during the second game of a doubleheader, Feb., 19, 2011 at Claude Smith Field in Macon, Ga. The Bears
went on to take the contest from the Flames, 17-5.
Five or More RBIs in a Game - Binghamton first baseman Dave Ciocchi drove in five runs with a two-run double and a basesclearing double at Worthington Stadium in a 9-6 loss to Liberty in game two of a doubleheader this past Saturday. The Bearcat
first baseman went 3-for-3 in the contest.
Grand Slam Home Run - Winthrop first baseman Patrick Gamblin capped a nine-run sixth inning with a grand slam in an 11-2
victory over the visiting Flames, on May 21, 2010 at Winthrop Ballpark in Rock Hill, SC. Gamblin hit his two-out home run to
straight-away center field.
No-Hitter - UNC Asheville’s Jason Walker pitched a seven-inning no-hitter against the Flames on April 29, 2000, at Greenwood
Field in Asheville, N.C. Walker allowed two walks and struck out four, leading the Bulldogs to a 3-0 win. The game marked the
only shutout against the Flames on the season and the first no-hitter thrown against Liberty since 1992.
Shutout - North Florida pitchers Casey Medlen and Tyler Moore combined to hold Liberty to three hits, to shut out the Flames,
5-0, Feb. 25 in the opening game of a four-game series between the two teams at Harmon Stadium in Jacksonville, Fla.
Medlen, the starter, allowed two hits, striking out seven and walking one in the win.
Triple Play - Leading 6-4 with a runner on first and second to open the fourth inning, Patrick Gaillard hit a line drive which High
Point second baseman Dustin Hoffman caught. Hoffman then tagged second and threw quickly to first to complete the triple
play. The Flames went on to win the Big South Championship game, 9-7, on May 25, 2006 at Charles Watson Stadium in Conway, S.C.
