Head Coach Jim Toman
Record at Liberty: 107-64-1 (Three Years)
Career Record: Same
After leading the Flames to the best record of any Liberty head coach during his first two years,
68-47-1, Jim Toman reached 100 career victories in a 10-7 win over Gardner-Webb on May 2. The
three-year coach becomes the fastest out of Liberty’s six head coaches in reaching the milestone.
Last season, Liberty recorded a 33-21 overall record, while posting a 17-9 mark in Big South
Conference play, the most victories by the school since joining the conference in 1992. While recording 30 or more wins in each of Toman’s seasons in Lynchburg, Liberty reached the plateau for
the fifth consecutive season for the first time in the program’s 36-year history in 2009.
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. The 2009 team’s fielding percentage
ranked 16th in the country. 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), while catcher Errol Hollinger later signed a free agent contract (Arizona
Diamondbacks).
In 2008, the Flames fashioned a 13-3-1 record in the month of May to finish the 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 36-year 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 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 this past summer.
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 also eclipsed the school’s single-season doubles mark, ripping 155 two-base hits. The
total ranked the Flames fifth in the country in the category.
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 is the sixth head coach in the 37-year history of the Liberty Baseball program. The second-year skipper comes to Liberty 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 worked with
the team’s catchers. Known as one of the top recruiters in college baseball, the 19-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. From
2003-2006, three of the four Gamecock recruiting classes were ranked first in the nation by Collegiate Baseball. Toman’s 2003, 2005 and 2006 classes were named the top recruiting classes by
the publication.
During his time on the staff in Columbia, S.C., Toman and the Gamecocks made nine NCAA
Regional appearances, including eight-straight since 2000, 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
15 teams to NCAA Regional appearances.
In addition, South Carolina posted eight-straight seasons of 40 or more wins with Toman on the
Gamecock coaching staff, including 2007. During Toman’s 11 seasons at South Carolina, he helped
the Gamecocks to a combined 500-220 (.694) record.
Toman earned four baseball letters at N.C. State, 1981-84, and was captain of the Wolfpack his
junior and senior seasons. He earned a Bachelor of Science degree in vocational industrial education in 1985. He received a Master of Science degree in sport management from N.C. State in 1995.
Upon graduation, Toman entered the coaching profession as an assistant at Richmond County
High School in Rockingham, N.C., for two years. He moved into the collegiate coaching ranks in
1989 as an assistant at Florida International for one year. At FIU, he was responsible for the weight
program, worked with the squad’s catchers and coached first base. Toman joined the N.C. State
staff before the 1990 season.

Closing in on Season Win Mark
The Flames begin the week with 39 wins, one shy of the school record of 40 victories,
reached by the 1983 Liberty squad which posted a 40-17 mark. It is the only time in the
37-year history of the program that a Flames team won 40 games.
The Liberty’s 39 wins tie the 2006 Flames sqaud for the most in program history at the
NCAA Division I level. In 2006, Liberty posted a 39-21 record.
Flames Reach 30 Wins
With an 11-2 victory over the Gardner-Webb Bulldogs on April 30, Liberty has won 30
or more games in a season for the sixth consecutive year, and each of the first three years
under head coach Jim Toman. It is the first time in the 37-year history of the program, the
Flames have won 30 or more games six-straight years.
Last season, the Flames posted a 33-21 mark to record its fifth-straight season of 30
wins or more. It was the first time Liberty had accomplished the five-year feat.
Before 2008, the Liberty baseball program had won 30 or more games in a season
three consecutive years. The Flames won 30 or more contests three consecutive seasons
from 2000-02.
Flames Post Longest Big South Win Streak
This season, Liberty posted the longest Big South winning streak in program history,
with 15-straight victories. The streak, which ran from March 27 to May 14, eclipsed the
2001 Liberty team, which won 10-straight Big South games.
New Big South Victory Record
With 19 Big South victories, the 2010 Flames have recorded the most conference
wins ever by a Liberty baseball team since joining the Big South in 1992. The mark surpasses last season’s 17 wins, which eclipsed the 1995 Liberty squad’s 15 conference
wins.
Liberty All-Time Against the Big South
Liberty, a 19-year member of the Big South Conference, has compiled a
261-183 (.588) record against the Big South Conference’s current membership.

Doubles Derby
Third baseman Tyler Bream and shortstop Matt Williams are two of eight players in
school history to hit 20 or more doubles in a season. Both Bream and Williams enter the
week with 21 two-base hits each. The totals tie both players for third on Liberty’s season
list with three former Flames, Cody Brown and P.K. Keller, who both hit 21 in 2008 and
Mark de Yaz who reached the total in 1981.
Outfielder Phillip Laurent holds the program season record for doubles with 27 in
2006. He is also Liberty’s career two-base hit leader with 68.
The Flames have hit 140 doubles this season, surpassing last year’s total of 123.
The school record is 155, which was set by the 2008 Liberty squad.
Teufel on Season Wins, K List
Liberty left-hander Shawn Teufel begins the week with a 10-3 record. With 10 wins,
the senior is currently tied for second on the program’s season wins list with former
Flames standout Lee Guetterman, who won 10 games in each of the 1980 and 81 seasons. Tuefel is one shy of right-hander Jason Jones, who won 11 contests in 2002 to top
the list.
Teufel’s season strikeout total of 87 also ranks eighth in program history. Former
Flame Benji Miller heads the Liberty season strikeout list with 119 in 1998.
Umberger Moves Up On Innings Pitched, K List
Liberty senior right-hander Dustin Umberger enters his final Big South Championship second on the program’s career innings pitched list with 315 1/3 innings. The righthander trails only former Liberty standout Lee Guetterman, who heads the program’s
career innings pitched list with 334 2/3.
In addition, Umberger is fourth on the school’s career strikeout list with 229. Mike
Brown, who pitched for the Flames from 1994-97 holds the career strikeout mark with
287.
Umberger became the 53rd pitcher in Big South Conference history to record 200 or
more strikeouts on March 17, by striking out two batters at Duke. The senior became the
first Flame since David Bechtold in 2005 to strike out over 200 batters. Bechtold struck
out 241 hitters from 2002-05.
Taking One for the Team
In each of the past two seasons, the Flames have set a new team record for being
hit by a pitch, and this season has been no different. A Liberty player has been hit by a
pitch 115 times in 2010, once again setting a new program standard. The total eclipses
last season’s team record 95, which was set over 54 games.
The Flames rank third nationally in the category in the latest NCAA statistics, through
games of May 16. Catcher Nathan Thompson has been hit 19 times to lead the Flames.
The Liberty record for number of times being hit by a pitch in a season is 22, set by David Benham in 1998. Benham is also the school’s career leader in the category, as the
catcher s hit 55 from 1995-98.
Turning Two
Liberty has turned 56 double plays this season, and ranks 27th nationally in double
plays in the last NCAA Statistical Report for games through May 16. The Flames total
eclipsed last year’s season total of 36, recorded over 54 games. The program season
record is 77 double plays, set by the 1998 squad.
In addition, the Liberty Flames turned five ground balls into double plays during their
9-1 win over St. John’s on March 12. The five double plays turned by the Liberty infield
are the most in a game by the Flames over the past 11 seasons. In 2008, the Flames
turned four double plays in a game twice. The contest happened a week apart, as Liberty had four double plays in an 11-5 win over Army, March 8. A week later, the Flames
recorded four double plays in a 5-0 loss at Southern Miss, March 15. Liberty also turned
four double plays this season in a 6-3 victory over Lehigh on Feb. 27.

Baseball’s New LU Hall Famers
Former Liberty Flames pitching standout Lee Guetterman and baseball program
founder and first coach Al Worthington are two of the five members of the Liberty Athletics Hall of Fame, who will be inducted into the hall during the Savannah State-Liberty
football game on Oct. 2.
Guetterman becomes the second baseball player to be inducted into the Liberty
Athletics Hall of Fame, joining Sid Bream who was inducted in the Hall’s first class this
past fall.
During a highly successful four-year stint in a Liberty uniform, Guetterman set
benchmarks that still stand three decades later. He is Liberty’s all-time career leader in
games started (47), complete games (30), shutouts (7), wins (29) and innings pitched
(334.2). Additionally, his 3.07 career ERA ranks second in school history, while his 220
strikeouts is fifth on Liberty’s all-time listings.
Not just a dominating force on the mound, he certainly helped out his own cause at
the plate. He posted a .325 career batting average, with 108 RBIs and 82 runs scored.
The impressive statistics helped him earn NAIA All-America first-team honors as a senior in 1981.
Guetterman was drafted by the Seattle Mariners in the fourth round of the 1981
MLB Draft, beginning an 11-year career, which saw him play for the Mariners, New York
Yankees, New York Mets and St. Louis Cardinals.
Following a four-year standout career at Samford in football and baseball, Worthington played for five different major league programs, including a five-year stint with the
Minnesota Twins.
In 1974, Worthington started Liberty’s baseball program. His 13-year coaching stint
enabled him to become the winningest coach in program history. Following the first year
of the program, Liberty never again had a losing record during the final dozen years
under his tutelage.
Worthington was named Liberty’s fifth Director of Athletics in Dec. 1983, a role he
held until he retired in 1989.

Tough to K - Redal at it Again
After being one of the toughest hitters in the nation to strike out in 2009, Liberty
outfielder Curran Redal is once again proving to be hard to strike out this season. The
senior has fanned 3 times in 236 at bats this season, or once per every 18.2 at bats.
The outfielder ranked as the 13th-toughest batter to strike out in the country in the latest
NCAA statistics, through games of May 16.
Last season, Redal finished the year, striking out once every 21.3 at bats, ranking
him ninth among NCAA Division I batters in the country. Redal struck out only 10 times
in 213 at bats over 54 games in 2010.
The outfielder began the week ranked fourth in the Big South Conference in on base
percentage with a .478 average.

Bream’s Walk-off Lifts Flames Past VCU
Trailing 6-5 in the bottom of the ninth, Liberty third baseman Tyler Bream blasted
a two-run home run, his second of the contest, giving the Flames a 7-6 walk-off victory
over the VCU Rams at Worthington Stadium, May 18.
Behind by a run in the ninth, center fielder Curran Redal led off the bottom half of
the final inning with a single to left field off VCU pitcher Robbie Andrews and moved to

Double Delight
First baseman Trey Wimmer drove in five runs with three doubles, propelling
the Flames past the George Mason Patriots, 9-7, March 30 at Worthington Stadium.
Wimmer went 3-for-3 with a walk in the contest, scoring two runs. He got
things started in the first inning with a two-run double, and later scored in a threerun inning. His second two-base hit in the fifth inning scored a run, giving the
Flames the lead for good. In the seventh, he chased home his final two runs of
the contest with his third double of the game.
Wimmer’s three doubles tie 13 other Liberty players for most doubles in a
game in program history. The last time a Flame had three two-base hits in a
contest was on May 21, 2009, when catcher Errol Hollinger had three in a 20-10
win over High Point at the Big South Conference Baseball Championship at McCormick Field in Asheville, N.C.
Teufel’s Scoreless Streak Ends
Senior left-hander Shawn Teufel gave up only his second run of the season
March 19. A Manhattan home run in the fourth halted the left-hander’s scoreless
innings streak at 24, which spanned over five starts for the senior. Teufel had
allowed only one prior run, in the first inning of his season-opening start at Kennesaw State on Feb. 19, and has not allow one since.
The streak tops a previous career-high of 10 scoreless innings by the pitcher
last season, from April 4-18. The scoreless span left the left-hander five innings
shy of the school record of 29, set by Tim Harrell in 2000.
Best Start Since 1995
Liberty started its 2010 season with a 9-0 record. The mark tied the 1995
Flames for the best start to a year in the 36-year history of the program. Liberty
tied the mark with a 10-1 win over Delaware State at Worthington Stadium on
March 7.
The Flames’ start was the best during the three-year tenure of Liberty Head
Coach Jim Toman. During Toman’s first season in 2008, the Flames opened the
year, 5-1.
Liberty also tied the programs’ record for consecutive wins at the NCAA Division I level with the streak. Five other Flames squads have won nine consecutive
games (2009, 2008, 2006, 1995, 1985). The 1976 Liberty team holds the school
record for consecutive victories with 15.
Bream Named Conference Player of the Week
Liberty sophomore third baseman Tyler Bream was named as the Big South
Conference Choice Hotels Baseball Player of the Week for Feb. 23.
