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 fi rst three seasons on Liberty Mountain. On May 2, 2010, Toman recorded his 100th career victory, as the Flames defeated Gardner- Webb, 10-7, at Worthington Stadium. The sixth coach in program history, Toman became the fastest Liberty baseball head coach to amass the milestone, passing fi rst 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 fi nished 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 fi rst 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 fi elding standard in 2009, committing the fewest errors, 53, and fi nishing the year with the highest fi elding percentage,.974, in team history. From that infi eld, 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 fi nish Toman s fi rst season at Liberty with a 35-26-1 mark. The record made Toman the winningest fi rst-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 fi nished 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 fi nal 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 fi rst 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.

The Flames fi nished second in the league s regular season and were conference runner-up at the Big South Baseball Championship. UNC Asheville Head Coach Tom Smith is in his second season heading up the Bulldog program. He had previously served on the UNC Asheville coaching staff for two years, serving as a volunteer assistant in 2008 and as an assistant in 2009. In his fi rst season, he led Asheville to a seventh-place fi nish in the Big South with a 10-17 conference mark and a 17-35 overall record. Before coming to UNC Asheville, Smith was considered one of the top high school coaches in the nation at T.C. Roberson HS in Asheville. He coached the Rams program for 28 years and led the school to three 3-A state titles in 1983, 2000 and 2002. The Rams won 14 conference titles during his tenure. Smith had 20 players drafted by major league teams during his time at Roberson. The list includes pitcher Darren Holmes, who went to pitch 17 years in the major leagues, current left-hander pitcher Chris Narveson of the Milwaukee Brewers and outfi elder Cameron Maybin of the Florida Marlins, who was drafted in the fi rst round in 2005.

So far this season, Liberty has taken advantage of its team speed, more than doubling its stolen base total from a year ago. The Flames have stolen 95 bases in 116 attempts this season, compared to 2010, when the Flames swiped 57 stolen bases in 80 attempts during the entire year. The Flames 95 stolen bases leads the Big South Conference in the category. The Flames were ranked sixth in the nation in the latest NCAA Division I statistical report, for games played through May 1. Leading the way for the Flames is center fi elder Ian Parmley with 22 stolen bases. Catcher Casey Rasmus is 17-for-18 in steal attempts this season despite playing in just 33 games. Parmley is third in the Big South Conference in the category, while Rasmus is tied for fourth. Parmley s 22 steals are the most by a Liberty player since 2006, when third baseman Chad Miller had 24. The Flames stolen base totals are defi nitely a stark contrast from last season. Not only has Liberty surpassed last year s season total, but individuallly four Flames have double-digit steal totals.

So far this season, Liberty games have run an average of 2:30, compared to 2:48 at this point in 2010, an 18-minute difference. Last season through 45 games, Liberty had already played 14 games which lasted three hours or longer, with the longest being 3:43 in a 14-13, 10 inning setback to Manhattan on March 20. This season, the Flames have had only fi ve games go over three hours, the longest being 3:26 in a wild, come-from-behind, 14-9 victory at High Point, April 10. Liberty scored seven times in the ninth inning to erase a 9-7 defi cit, en route to the win. Weekend Trio Getting It Done Entering this weekend, Liberty pitchers John Niggli, Steven Evans and Keegan Linza have established themselves as a trio to reckon with. The three weekend starters for the Flames have combined to post a 15-6 record with a 2.90 ERA over 208 innings in 30 starts, so far this season. They have also combined for six complete games, with Linza going the the full nine innings four times this year. Linza is among the Big South leaders in several categories. The senior right-hander leads the conference with seven wins and 79 2/3 innings pitched. He is third with a 2.37 ERA. Niggli and Evans also have their names on several of the Big South lists. Niggli is sixth in opponent batting average (.227) and ninth in ERA (2.97). Evans is fourth in strikeouts (59), tied for fi fth in innings pitched (70 1/3) and ninth in opponent batting average (.240) Two-HR Games Abound Over 10-Day Stretch Three Flames hit two home runs in a game over a stretch of 10 days from April 17-26. Before the stretch, no Liberty player had connected for more than one round tripper in a game this season. Designated hitter Justin Richardson became the fi rst Flame to hit two home runs in a game this season in a 7-1 win over Presbyterian College during the fi rst game of a doubleheader, April 17 at Worthington Stadium. The blasts were his fi rst and second round trippers of the year. Richardson belted solo home runs in the fourth and sixth innings of the contest. Catcher Jeff Jefferson followed six days later in an 8-6 victory over VMI in game one of a doubleheader at Gray-Minor Stadium in Lexington, Va., April 23. Jefferson lined a solo home run in the fi fth and tied the game at 6-6 in the ninth inning with another solo home run. In the come-from-behind victory at VMI, the Flames hit fi ve home runs, their most in a contest this season. Outfi elder Ryan Cordell became the third player with a multi-home run game April 26 at No. 2 South Carolina. The fi rst two hits of his collegiate career, the outfi elder hit round trippers in the fourth and eight innings. Last season, Liberty only had one multiple-home run game. Third baseman Tyler Bream hit two round trippers, including a two-run, walk-off home run in the last game of the season at Worthington Stadium, a 7-6 victory over VCU on May 18, 2010.

Former Liberty outfi elder Phillip Laurent (2003-06) holds the school career record for two-base hits with 68. He also set the single-season record with 27 in 2006. Williams Liberty teammate Tyler Bream has also moved into the Top 10 career doubles list this season. With 45 two-base hits, the Flames third baseman ranks 10th on the school s career list. Doing the Dougie On April 6, outfi elder Doug Bream had a career-high fi ve hits in a 16-12 setback at Worthington Stadium. Bream surpassed his previous career-high of four hits in a 12-7 win over James Madison at Worthington Stadium on April 21, 2010. It is the fi rst time a Liberty Flame has had fi ve hits in game since outfi elder Curran Redal in a 14-8 victory over High Point in game one of a Big South Conference doubleheader at Worthington Stadium on April 3, 2010. Bream went 5-for-5 in the contest and scored three runs. Later in the week, the senior had two four-hit games in victories at High Point to close the week with a.737 batting average.

The streak is tied for the longest by a Flame this season with catcher Casey Rasmus. Evans Pitches Way into Record Book With eight strikeouts Friday night in Liberty s 3-2, 12-inning victory over Le Moyne, senior left-hander Steven Evans moved into second place on Liberty s all-time strikeout list with 244. Only Mike Brown (1994-97), Liberty s career strikeout leader with 287, compiled more. Evans is currently fourth in the Big South with 59 strikeouts this season. Evans is also tied for fourth on the program s career wins list with 23. The senior, who has a career record of 23-10, is tied with Kevin Napier (1983-86) for fourth on the alltime list. The left-hander needs one more win to move into second on the school s career victory list with Tim Harrell (1995-98) and David Harris (1979-83). Liberty standout Lee Guetterman (1978-81) won 29 games during his career to top the Liberty all-time wins list.

Meanwhile, Liberty is 8-14 when its opponents plate the fi rst run of the game. It is What I Like About Sunday Unfortunately, the Flames will not play a game on Sunday this week.
