2008 PROSPECTUS
The Presbyterian College baseball team opens its first season in 2008. The
upcoming year is also its fourth season under Elton Pollock’s watch and the Blue
Hose enter the season looking to improve and surprise many at the highest level
of college baseball.
Last season the Blue Hose concluded their year with the highest winning
percentage in Pollock’s tenure. PC had three winning streaks of three games or
more and closed out its time in the South Atlantic Conference by taking two out
of three games from Wingate at the PC Baseball Complex.
Overall last year, PC was strong at its home diamond, winning 13 games.
The Blue Hose have a great deal of stability coming back this season as
six position starters from last year’s squad return for PC.
Jared Combs also returns to the fold for PC in the 2008 season. A starter
for the Blue Hose at shortstop last season in the first three games after transferring in from Armstrong Atlantic State, Combs hurt his hand in the third game of
the season against Anderson University. Combs did not play the rest of the year
for PC, but recovered sufficiently to the injury and during the summer of 2007 was
named to the Southern Collegiate Baseball League’s All-Star team for his efforts
with the Tennessee Tornados.
Five of the six returning players were listed at the end of the year as the
top five hitters in the PC statistics. All five batted over .300 in 2007.
Senior outfielder Kyle Craven (Savannah, Ga.) led the way for PC at the
plate last season. Craven played in all 50 PC games, concluding the season with a
batting average of .366.
Craven had a .508 slugging percentage and rounded up a team-best 97 total bases. He was 8-for-9 on his stolen base attempts. Craven had a team-high tying 19 extra-base hits, including a team second-best 14 doubles.
Fellow senior outfielder Casey Carlson (Lexington, S.C.) finished just behind Craven with a .328 batting average. Carlson led the team in RBIs (42) and slugging percentage (.514).
Carlson tied with Craven with 19 extra-base hits. He concluded his output in 2007 with nine doubles, a teambest six triples and a team-high four home runs. Carlson earned a 1.000 fielding percentage.
A team captain as a junior in 2007, catcher William Bolchoz (Mt. Pleasant, S.C.) ended last season with a .321
batting average. Very reliable behind the dish, Bolchoz had a .975 fielding percentage.
Cory Lyda (Simpsonville, S.C.) led PC with 11 stolen bases last season. Lyda ended the 2007 season with a
batting average of .316. Lyda tied Craven and Carlson with 19 extra-base hits, collecting a team-high 15 doubles and
four triples. He had 24 RBIs.
Jesse Harmon (Newberry, S.C.) ended his freshman year at the plate with a batting average of .312. Harmon
had nine extra-base hits (four doubles, five triples) and ended his first season with 16 RBIs.
The Blue Hose return 10 players to the pitcher’s mound in 2008, which includes six players who finished with
two or more wins in 2007.
Returning hurler Eric Tatum (Buford, Ga.) finished
with the most wins on the team with four. Tatum was
4-4 in 19 appearances.
Harmon won two games from the hill for PC in
2007. The freshman also struck out a team-high 60 batters.
A senior in 2008, Andrew Cockerham (Millers
Creek, N.C.) was the only Blue Hose pitcher to start a
game in 2007 to finish without a loss. Cockerham was
2-0.
The returning Blue Hose will be led once again
by both Pollock and fifth-year assistant coach Mark
Johnson. Pollock was able to add a second assistant
in the offseason, choosing former Blue Hose standout
Charles Assey to return to the program to train the current Blue Hose.

(.616) and triples (11), third in
total bases (382), tied for fourth
in runs scored (169), and fifth in

THE FUTURE
The Future Of Blue Hose Baseball
Major Stadium Renovations Will Make PC
Baseball Complex One Of The Premier Places To
Play College Baseball In Palmetto State
And Region
PRESBYTERIAN COLLEGE
Presbyterian College is located
in Clinton, South Carolina, a community of 10,000 nestled in upstate
South Carolina. The college’s beautiful 240-acre campus and a national
reputation for academic excellence
attract 1,200 students representing 30
states and eleven foreign countries.
International study programs include
China, Oxford, Spain, and Cuba. The
distinguished sons and daughters of
Presbyterian College are outstanding
leaders in business and industry, education, athletics, journalism, medicine,
the military, the Church, and public
service. Presbyterian College, home
of the fighting Blue Hose, continues
to live its motto of “While we live, we
serve,” producing servant leaders for
the world today.
PC was born of the dreams of a
humble pastor determined to restore
a territory plundered by war. In 1864
22-year-old Rev. William Plumer
Jacobs arrived in Clinton to serve as
pastor of First Presbyterian Church.
Eight years later Jacobs and the church
founded the Clinton High School Association to provide the young people
of Laurens County a place to receive
a Christian-based, liberal arts education. In 1880 the Clinton High School
Association became first Clinton College, and then in 1890 the Presbyterian
College of South Carolina.
Coeducational instruction occurred from the start. In keeping with
its goal to produce graduates of high
moral character, Presbyterian College
adopted an honor code, a studentrun system still flourishing today, to
govern students’ academic and social
lives.
Today’s PC curriculum includes
international programs, internships,
and unique cultural and arts opportunities. New facilities for living (Senior
Hall and Carol International House),
athletic play (new Bailey Memorial
Stadium, Martin Soccer Stadium),
study (Lassiter Science Hall, the Arnold Archives and Thomason Library),
and infrastructure support (information technology) benefit the PC and
Clinton community alike.
New professorships have strengthened the already strong faculty. The
college is home to six South Carolina
Professors of the Year, more than
twice the number of any public or
private institution in the state. Financial aid resources insure that qualified
students have access to a PC educa18 • Inaugural NCAA Division I Season
tion.
Blue Hose sports have always
made history. In 1943 PC football
coach Lonnie McMillan gave the
Clemson football stadium its famous
nickname, Death Valley. The Scotsman Club, formerly known as the Walter Johnson Club, was created in 1937.
Its purpose still today is to provide
athletic scholarships for young men
and women who excel in both sports
venues and classrooms. In the 1960s
PC’s intercollegiate tennis program
was ranked number 2 in the nation.
PC provides the community a
rich cultural life through lectures,
art exhibits, concerts and theatrical
performances. The college’s library
and intramural facilities serve local
residents, while college faculty and
staff serve on many local boards. The
college is involved in local economic
development, recognizing the importance of its roll as a Clinton citizen as
well as a significant employer.
Presbyterian College holds fast
to its core mission and high standards
of integrity, celebrating its motto:
“Dum Vivimus Servimus,” or “While
we live, we serve.” Service to community and each other are hallmarks
of faculty and students alike, and PC
has one of the oldest student volunteer
organizations in the country in Student
Volunteer Services (SVS). Presbyterian College is also proud of its service
to country. More than 1,000 PC
graduates served in World War II, and
today’s alumni ranks include a Medal
of Honor recipient and more than 15
PC’S VISION
“Moving forward without leaving home”
By the year 2010, Presbyterian College,
remaining true to the Christian tradition and
its relationship with the Presbyterian Church,
USA, will be the leading liberal arts college
in South Carolina and one of the ten best
national liberal arts colleges in the Southeast.

generals.
In 2007, after 15 years in NCAA
Division II, the college entered its
transitional year of membership into
NCAA Division I. Today PC fields
sixteen competitive teams in men’s
and women’s sports, and Blue Hose
athletes routinely earn academic as
well as athletic honors.
PC is a member of the Big South
Conference.
PC FACILITIES
The Presbyterian College Athletic Department is recognized as having some of the finest athletic facilities in the Southeast. The
16-sport athletic department’s athletic facilities include the 2,500-seat Ross E. Templeton Physical Education Center, Callaway Tennis Courts, Edens Field at Martin Soccer Stadium, the PC Baseball Complex, and the PC Softball Complex.
Ross E. Templeton Physical Education Center
The facility bears the name of the late Ross E. Templeton ’24, distinguished alumnus and business leader of Charlotte and Clinton, who was
a life-long devotee of PC sports. Completed in 1975, the facility serves as
both a sports and academic center. The Furman Pinson Arena seats more
than 2,000 spectators for men’s and women’s basketball as well as volleyball. In 2000, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Staton provided a new floor for the
facility. Ample classrooms, multi-purpose space, and equipment serve
the physical education instruction program. Adjoining Templeton Center on the right is the new Johnson-Callaway Center, an 11,500-squarefoot addition
Ross E. Templeton P.E. Center
containing
men’s and
women’s locker rooms and 10 coaches’ offices. Located directly behind
this facility is the Kemper D. Lake, M.D. Sports Medicine Center which
houses PC’s Sports Medicine staff who maintain the health of all Blue
Hose athletes. The Mabry-Smith-Yonce Center is the 6,000-square-foot
facility adjoining to the left of the Templeton Center that was built in
1994. This facility provides meeting space for student organizations,
Furman Pinson Court
alumni groups, athletic teams, and special events. It also includes a
kitchen, restrooms, and a storage area.
Templeton Weight Facility
Located in the Templeton Center, the new weight room which opened
in October of 2004, replaced the facility’s racquetball court that was no
longer in service. The 38’ x 70’ addition provides an additional 2,660
square feet of weightlifting area for the college’s 16 varsity athletic
teams. The original weight room, located at the east end of the Furman
B. Pinson Court, provides 2,400 square feet of workout space that will
give the Blue Hose athletic teams the flexibility to work out in both
weight room facilities while avoiding scheduling conflicts. The new
weight room includes custom equipment designed and installed by ArrowHawk of Laurens, S.C.
Templeton Weight Facility
Templeton Tennis Center
Located next to the Ross E. Templeton Center, the Templeton Tennis
Center is home for the nationally ranked Blue Hose men’s and women’s
tennis programs. Templeton Courts has served as host for several regular
season and postseason events, including hosting the SAC Tennis Championships from 2002-04.
Templeton Tennis Center
Martin Stadium
Martin Soccer Stadium, seating approximately 400, was constructed
in 2000 by the Kenneth Martin Family, of Greenville, S.C. Dr. Robert
M. Edens ’77, of Columbia, S.C. provided the soccer playing field. The
facility is home for the Blue Hose men’s and women’s soccer programs
which have received national recognition over the years. This facility has
also served as host of several postseason events at the high school and
collegiate level.
THE BLUE HOSE
PC Softball Complex
The PC Softball Complex is located on the 31-acre Young Intramural Park. This
facility is home to the Blue Hose Softball program and was built in 1997 when the
sport was still at club level.
The facility has a new scoreboard located behind the rightfield fence which
was donated by Pepsi-Cola of Greenville, S.C., prior to the 2005 season. Behind
the scoreboard are batting cages, while the complex also has three other softball
fields which can be used for practice or tournament competition.
The complex has served host to many tournaments, including the Food Lion/
SAC Tournament from 2001-03 and in 2007.
PC Softball Complex
Johnson Field at Old Bailey Stadium
Johnson Field was named for Walter A. Johnson, who came to Presbyterian College in 1915 when he was 22 and served as coach and athletic
director for 43 years.
President John McSween dedicated Bailey Stadium at the opening
home football game of the 1928 season. The 3,000 seat facility, which is
now used as the home site by the Blue Hose men and women’s lacrosse
teams, resulted mainly from a $10,000 gift from W.J. Bailey, Clinton banker
and industrialist, as a memorial to his son William Cyrus Bailey, 1908. The
Bailey Foundation provided for the renovation of the track and stadium
Johnson Field at Old Bailey Stadium
in 1986. The facility served as the home field for the Blue Hose football
program from its opening prior to the 1928 season until the first two games of the 2002 season. During that time, the Blue Hose
compiled a record of 185-109-8, good for a .626 winning percentage.
PC Baseball Complex
The Presbyterian College baseball team plays its home games at one of the most
attractive facilities in South Carolina, the PC Baseball Complex. The Complex is
located at the eastern end of the college campus and was built in the late 1980’s.
The facility has served as host to numerous postseason events at the collegiate
and high school level over the years.
The complex boasts a covered batting facility down the first base line and a 10inning scoreboard located behind the leftfield fence.
Bailey Memorial Stadium
PC Baseball Complex
During the 2002 season, Presbyterian College opened the new 6,500-seat Bailey
Memorial Stadium. This state-of-the-art facility features a multi-level press box, a spacious field house, and concession stands for
home and visiting fans.
Guarding the entrance to Bailey Memorial Stadium is a 15-foot statue, which was graciously donated by Mr. Irwin Belk, of the
Blue Hose mascot, nicknamed Cyrus. Scotsman Club members will have the opportunity to watch exciting Blue Hose football from
the loggia level, which has open access to the home stands and a superb view of the playing field.
The second story of the press box is the president’s level. Special guests will enjoy Blue Hose football from the plush surroundings of the private president’s box. Also located on this level is the game operations box, home and visiting radio booths which
are located on each end of this level, and the sports information box. The top level of the press box is the film level, which offers
coaches’ boxes and a filming area for both teams. The playing surface, Claude Crocker Field, is made of bermuda grass. Located
at the west end of Crocker Field is the Yonce Field House. The 9,000-square-foot facility houses both home and visiting football
teams with locker room facilities. A doctor’s office and a sports medicine taping room are also located in the field house.
BIG SOUTH CONFERENCE
For more than 20 years, the Big South
Conference has been a progressive, NCAA Division I athletic Conference reflecting the energy
and growth of the Southeastern United States.
Founded in 1983, the Big South has matured into
a competitive leader in college athletics, actively
pursuing excellence both on the field of play and
in the classroom. Based in Charlotte, N.C., the

tive marketing and media partnerships, increased

South through the first decade of the 21st Century.
Entering its 24th year of existence in 2007-08, the Big
South Conference continues to emerge by providing quality athletic
competition while intentionally fostering the academic, personal,
social, athletic and leadership development of each student-athlete. The League consists of eight member institutions: Charleston Southern University, Coastal Carolina University, High Point
University, Liberty University, UNC Asheville, Radford University,

bers will join the Big South footprint in 2008-09 with the addition of
Gardner-Webb University and Presbyterian College, which began its transition to Division I athletics in 2006.
The Big South reached new heights in 2006-07, as the League experienced monumental milestones in nearly every
sport. In football, Coastal Carolina became the first Big South member to receive a berth in the NCAA Division I Championship, being selected as an at-large participant to highlight the Conference’s fifth year of sponsoring football. In men’s basketball, Winthrop became the first Big South member to be ranked in the national top 25 and first to win a first round NCAA
Tournament with its 74-64 win over Notre Dame. In women’s basketball, the Big South had two teams participate in the
postseason for the first time in League history. In men’s golf, Coastal Carolina became the first Big South squad to advance
to the final round of the NCAA Championship and finished fifth – the Conference’s highest-ever team finish in an NCAA
event. In softball, Winthrop became the first Big South member to reach the Championship game of an NCAA Regional. In
baseball, Coastal Carolina was ranked as high as No. 10 in the national polls, received a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Regional
and became the first Big South member to host an NCAA Regional. In volleyball, Winthrop became the first Big South
member to win a game in the NCAA Tournament. The Big South also had its first-ever women’s cross country All-American
in 2006-07, as well as its first women’s golf All-American in 10 years.
Additionally, Radford tennis player Martin Sayer was selected to play in the NCAA Singles Championship for the
second-straight year, Liberty’s Josh McDougal received All-America honors in the three running sports (cross country, indoor
track and outdoor track) for the second consecutive season, and Coastal Carolina golfer Dustin Johnson was at one time the
No. 1-ranked college golfer en route to earning first-team All-America honors for the second year in-a-row. The Conference
again went 2-1 in the ESPN BracketBusters men’s basketball event, had more than 30 All-Americans, and had softball and
men’s soccer televised for the first time in League history.
The Conference’s on-field accomplishments were duplicated in the classroom. A total of 36 Big South student-athletes were named Academic All-District by the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA), NINE of which
earned Academic All-America accolades. In football, Coastal Carolina’s Anthony Franklin received an NCAA Postgraduate
Scholarship, and eight Big South member sports teams were honored by the NCAA for their latest Academic Progress Rate.
The Big South Conference was formed on August 21, 1983, when Charleston Southern (then Baptist College)
Athletic Director Howard Bagwell and Augusta President George Christenberry initially began recruiting members into the
Big South. One month later, Dr. Edward M. Singleton was selected as the League’s first Commissioner and continued to
solicit new members. The League’s seven charter members were Armstrong State, Augusta, Campbell, Charleston Southern,
Coastal Carolina, Radford and Winthrop. In 1989, George F. “Buddy” Sasser replaced the retiring Dr. Singleton as Commissioner. Under Sasser’s leadership, the Conference implemented its public relations and compliance programs, and introduced
its first-ever men’s basketball television package, featuring the Big South competing among some of the finest teams in the
nation. Sasser was so integral to the growth and foundation of the League that in 2000, the Commissioner’s Cup -- the annual award given to the institution with the most successful athletic year -- was renamed the George F. Sasser Cup.
In August 1996, Kyle B. Kallander replaced Sasser as the League’s third Commissioner, and in his 11 years at the
helm of the Big South, Kallander has been instrumental in aggressively promoting the Conference to new levels. He developed the Big South Marketing Group, which has resulted in increased revenues and exposure for the Conference and its
members. He also brought television coverage to Big South women’s basketball, baseball and softball for the first time in
Conference history and created the Big South Television Network in 2001 as a television syndicate for the League. Under
BIG SOUTH CONFERENCE
Big South Conference At A Glance
Kallander’s leadership, the Big South developed and initiated
its first long-range strategic plan, re-affirming the League’s
vision as a distinctive athletic Conference committed to the
quality of institutional life through athletic competition. In
addition, Kallander has solidified membership with the addition of High Point in 1999, Virginia Military Institute in 2003
and future members Gardner-Webb and Presbyterian in 2008.
Kallander’s long range vision has also included technological
advancements, as the Conference introduced its first live event
video streaming in 2005 and has since expanded its video offerings to all sports. Kallander has also successfully integrated
the Conference’s profile with the member institutions’ general
student body, notably through the development of the Big South
Academic Consortium, which sponsors the annual Academic
College Bowl among League members and the Big South Undergraduate Research Symposium. In 2005-06, the Big South
began its Sportsmanship Awards program and Graduate Fellowships program, honoring one graduating male and female
student-athlete attending graduate school the following fall.
In the Fall of 2002, the Big South welcomed the addition of
football as a Conference sport, bringing the number of Division
I championship programs the Big South sponsors to 18, joining
men’s and women’s cross country, men’s and women’s soccer,
volleyball, men’s and women’s basketball, men’s and women’s indoor/outdoor track, men’s and women’s tennis, men’s and
women’s golf, softball and baseball. The Big South receive automatic bids to NCAA Championships in men’s and women’s
basketball, men’s and women’s soccer, volleyball,
men’s and women’s golf, baseball, softball, and
men’s and women’s tennis.
In celebrating its 20th anniversary in
2003-04, the Big South inducted its inaugural
Hall of Fame class, which included 11 former
student-athletes and administrators who were an
integral part in the Big South’s early development and vitality. The Hall of Fame now stands
at 30 members. The League also recognizes and
honors academic excellence with the Presidential Honor Roll and the George A. Christenberry
Award, which recognizes student-athletes graduating with a 4.0 grade point average. Additionally,
the Conference’s Sports Information Directors
annually select a Scholar-Athlete in each Conference sport, plus a male and female Scholar-Athlete
of the Year
The Big South continues to secure aggressive and unique television packages, making the
Conference one of the leaders among all Division
I Leagues in television exposure for its studentathletes. Entering the 2006-07 season, the Conference will have an expanded lineup on regional
network SportSouth, in addition to a partnership
with the fledgling national network, The America
Channel, allowing the Big South to televise its
largest array of events and sports in its history.
The Conference also boasts relationships with
FSN South, Comcast SportsNet (CSN), Comcast
Sports Southeast (CSS), College Sports Television
(CSTV), Fox College Sports (FCS) and the ESPN
family of networks, which will televise the 2008
Advance Auto Parts Men’s Basketball Championship game live on ESPN.

THE BLUE HOSE
WHAT IS A BLUE HOSE?
“A Blue Hose is a fierce Scotch-Irish warrior. If you have
ever seen the movie Braveheart, you have seen a true
Blue Hose.”
Despite this depiction, it still has been
asked many times where Presbyterian
College received its Blue Hose nickname. Several rumors exist and Ray
Frank in his book, “What’s In A Nickname” delved into the subject. Frank
discovered that there were many opinions. One story had it that the Presbyterian Scotch-Irish wore blue stockings in
the Puritan beginnings of our country.
Another said that a fierce war-like band
of Scotch-Irish named the Hose painted
their entire bodies blue before going
into battle. Yet, probably the true story
lies in a letter dated June 15, 1935,
written by then PC athletic director
Walter Johnson to an inquiring English
professor in Virginia ... [quoting from
Walter Johnson’s letter] ‘It was about
the second or third year, 1915, if I remember right. I think it happened this
way: I changed uniform colors to blue,
wearing blue stockings and jerseys,
and some sports writer started calling
in his articles the Presbyterian College
teams the Blue Stockings.’ ... in later
years “Stocking” became abbreviated to
“the Hose,” particularly in newspaper
headlines, and was more or less officially adopted by the student body in
the 1950’s.
All the PC media guides since 1996
continued to elaborate on the issue,
quoting an article by Ben Hay Hammet
entitled “The Spirit of PC.” The piece by
Hammet articulated that, “Johnson always insisted on the fact that his players
wear long blue socks similar to stockings (after all, there were White Sox and
Red Sox in baseball).
Coach Johnson’s explanation may
simply be coincidental to the fact that
the phrase “Blue Stocking Presbyterian”
goes back informally quite a few years
in the denomination’s history.” Nevertheless, PC’s athletic nickname was
shortened to Blue Hose in 1954.
