Since beginning his tenure as 

Georgia State University’s seventh 

president on Jan. 1, 2009, Mark P. 

Becker has launched a major strategic 

planning initiative focused on positioning 

the university to become one of 

the nation’s premier urban universities. 

Embracing its commitments to recognized 

excellence in both education and 

research, as well as its unique location in 

and commitment to Atlanta, the university 

is rising to new levels of accomplishment 

and impact. 

Under Becker’s leadership, GSU in 

2011 approved and began implementation 

of its 10-year Strategic Plan, whose 

mission is to position Georgia State 

“as a dynamic academic community 

where teaching and research combine 

to produce leaders and create solutions 

to conquer the challenges of the 21st 

century.” 

In 2010 Becker oversaw the launch of 

the Second Century Initiative for faculty 

excellence, or “2CI.” This initiative is 

recruiting additional faculty members 

to Georgia State to build internationally 

recognized scholarly strength and critical 

mass in areas of priority. 

Seeking to recognize the importance 

and influence of international commerce 

and technology for Georgia State students 

and researchers, Becker has worked to 

enhance Georgia State University’s global 

reach, the cornerstone of which was the 

2010 opening of GSU’s Confucius Institute, 

a partnership with the Beijing 

Language and Culture University and 

one of the first business-oriented Confucius 

Institutes in the United States. 

In addition, Becker leads a diverse 

university whose undergraduate 

academic profile continues to rise, and 

a number of the university’s excellent 

graduate programs enjoy strong national 

rankings. 

Becker also has overseen a number 

of physical improvements and enhancements 

including: the opening of the 

Parker H. “Pete” Petit Science Center; 

the university’s first freshman housing 

and dining complex, the Piedmont 

North housing and dining complex; 

the construction of on-campus Greek 

housing; and the purchasing of land for 

future growth and expansion in downtown 

Atlanta. 

Prior to his appointment to Georgia 

State, Becker served as executive vice 

president for academic affairs and 

provost at the University of South 

Carolina. 

Before assuming that role, Becker 

spent three years at the University of 

Minnesota as a biostatistics professor, 

dean of the School of Public Health and 

assistant vice president of Public Health, 

Preparedness and Emergency Response. 

From 1989 to 2000, Becker was 

a professor and associate dean for 

academic affairs at the University of 

Michigan’s School of Public Health. He 

also has held academic appointments at 

the University of Washington, the University 

of Florida and Cornell University. 

Becker earned his bachelor’s degree 

in mathematics from Towson State 

University and his doctorate in statistics 

from the Pennsylvania State University. 

Active in the Atlanta community, 

Becker is a member of the Central 

Atlanta Progress Executive Committee; 

Atlanta Committee for Progress Board 

of Directors; Georgia Aquarium Board; 

Woodruff Arts Center Board of Trustees; 

Metro Atlanta Chamber of Commerce 

Board of Directors; Georgia Chamber of 

Commerce Board of Directors; Georgia 

Research Alliance Board of Trustees; 

Commerce Club Operating Board; 

ARCHE (Atlanta Regional Council for 

Higher Education) Board; the Coalition 

of Urban Serving Universities Board of 

Directors; and the World Affairs Council 

of Atlanta Board of Directors. 

During his career, Becker has been 

involved in several professional associations, 

including the American Association 

for the Advancement of Science, the 

International Biometric Society and the 

American Statistical Association, where 

he is a fellow. He has been principal 

investigator on research grants from the 

National Institutes of Health and the 

National Science Foundation, and he has 

published extensively in leading journals 

of medicine, public health, and statistics. 

Becker has served on a number of editorial 

boards, was co-editor of Sociological 

Methodology, and was a guest editor for 

Sociological Methods and Research and 

for the Journal of the American Statistical 

Association. 

Becker and his wife, Laura Voisinet, 

have two grown children, Matthew and 

Julia.

In just three years at the helm, Georgia 

State University Director of Athletics 

Cheryl L. Levick has overseen the 

remarkable transformation of Panther 

Athletics, from the launch of GSU football 

to the enhancement of every sports program 

to the announcement that Georgia State will 

move to the Sun Belt Conference on July 1, 

2013. 

Levick presided over the Georgia State 

football program’s highly successful debut 

in 2010, and now, after just two seasons, she 

has the Panthers poised for a jump to the 

Football Bowl Subdivision, a move that will 

continue GSU’s ascent to the forefront of 

college athletics. 

Her significant imprint extends to the 

basketball court as she lured successful head 

coach Ron Hunter, who revitalized GSU 

basketball in his first season and led the 

Panthers to their first postseason berth in a 

decade. 

Levick’s first three years on the job have 

also been marked by dramatic upgrades in 

facilities and fund-raising. Annual giving 

to the Panther Athletic Club has increased 

more than ten-fold, and the two largest gifts 

in the history of GSU athletics have been 

secured. Construction projects include the 

GSU Football Practice Complex, new facilities 

for strength and conditioning and sports 

medicine, and upgrades to every venue used 

by the Panthers. 

And the progress continues. In 2012-13, 

sand volleyball comes on board as Georgia 

State’s 19th sport, complete with a state-ofthe-art 

facility on the GSU campus. The new 

sand volleyball complex is part of an ambitious 

Athletics Master Facilities Plan that 

Levick has developed to address the needs of 

every sport. 

One constant amid the change is the 

success of GSU student-athletes in the 

classroom as the Panthers maintain a 

cumulative grade point average over 3.0 

while completing more than 5,000 hours of 

community service annually. 

In 2011, Levick was recognized by the 

SportsBusiness Journal as a “Game Changer” 

among women in sports business. 

With a resume of experience and success 

at prestigious athletics programs across the 

nation, Levick came to Georgia State in March 

2009 from the University of Maryland, where 

she served as chief of staff/executive senior 

athletic director, overseeing daily management 

of the 27-sport program. Her impressive 

career includes a total of seven years as 

director of athletics at Santa Clara University 

and Saint Louis University as well as nearly 

two decades in senior administrative positions 

at Maryland and Stanford University 

and stints with the Pacific 10 Conference and 

the NCAA headquarters. 

Levick was named the 2001 Division I 

Athletic Administrator of the Year by the 

National Association of Collegiate Women 

Athletic Administrators (NACWAA). In 

2005-06, she received the General Sports 

TURF Systems Athletic Director of the Year 

Award for the NCAA Division I Central 

Region, and she was recognized in both 1998 

and 1999 as one of the nation’s Top 25 Female 

Sports Executives by Street & Smith’s Sports 

Business Journal. She is a past president of 

the NCAA Division I-AAA Athletic Directors 

Association. 

Before going to Maryland in 2007, she 

served three years (2004-07) as director of 

athletics at Saint Louis, where she led the 

transition from Conference USA to the 

Atlantic 10 Conference and served as the lead 

fundraiser for a new $80 million on-campus 

arena and practice complex. In 2006, she 

received the Carl O. Bauer Award as the top 

amateur sports figure in the St. Louis area. 

Levick also spent four years (2000-04) as 

director of athletics and recreation at Santa 

THE LEVICK 

FAMILY: 

(l-r) Michael,

Clara University, where she oversaw a major 

renovation of the school’s basketball arena. 

The Broncos’ women’s soccer team captured 

the 2001 national championship, still the 

only NCAA team title in school history. 

Prior to Santa Clara, Levick worked 12 

years at Stanford as senior associate athletic 

director and senior woman administrator. 

She served as the primary administrator for 

33 varsity programs that won 44 national 

championships and six straight Sears Cup 

titles during her tenure. 

Levick previously served as assistant 

commissioner of the Pac-10 Conference, 

assistant director of communications and 

women’s programs at the NCAA, women’s 

gymnastics coach and associate athletic 

director at Slippery Rock University, and 

assistant gymnastics coach and synchronized 

swim coach at Indiana University. She 

began her career at Pattonville Senior High 

School in St. Louis, Mo., coaching gymnastics 

and women’s track. 

Levick is a 1974 graduate of the University 

of Missouri, and she holds a masters 

degree in athletic administration from 

Indiana University. She has two daughters: 

Heather, who is married to Michael Klass, 

and Melissa.

Formed in 1976 the Sun Belt Conference 

quickly rose to the greatest heights of collegiate 

athletics by sending a team to the 

NCAA Final Four in the league’s first year of 

existence. Fast forward 36 years and the league 

again finds itself at the pinnacle of collegiate athletics 

as a member of the 11-league alliance of the Bowl 

Championship Series. 

During the 2012-13 season the Sun Belt Conference’s 

membership will consist of Arkansas-Little 

Rock, Arkansas State, Florida Atlantic, FIU, Louisiana- 

Lafayette, Louisiana-Monroe, Middle Tennessee, 

North Texas, South Alabama, Troy and Western 

Kentucky University. Ten of the 11 current Sun Belt 

members play football at the Football Bowl Subdivision 

(FBS) level. 

As the conference moves forward to the year 2013, 

the league will be comprised of 12 members with 

Arkansas-Little Rock, Arkansas State, Georgia State, 

Florida Atlantic, Louisiana-Lafayette, Louisiana- 

Monroe, Middle Tennessee, South Alabama, Texas- 

Arlington, Texas State, Troy and Western Kentucky 

University. The reformatted league will have 10 

football playing members of the 12 total members. 

The league’s new look will feature two evenly 

matched and geographically logical divisions divided 

into an East Division and West Division. 

Because of its status as a member of the Football 

Bowl Subdivision, the Sun Belt Conference has a 

permanent seat on the NCAA’s 18-member Board 

of Directors. As a result, the conference has a crucial 

voice on some of the most pressing issues in college 

athletics and will always have a role in the implementation 

of any future NCAA legislation and guidelines. 

The conference’s regional television partnership 

with Comcast/Charter Sports Southeast (CSS) and 

Cox Sports Television (CST) enables live telecasts 

of Sun Belt events to reach millions of households. 

The addition of volleyball, baseball and softball to the 

conference’s television package has resulted in more 

national and regional television exposure for the 

league than at any time in its history. 

Since the 2007 football season, the Sun Belt Conference 

ranks fifth out of the 11 FBS conferences in 

postseason bowl game winning percentage. In fact, 

the Sun Belt Conference ranks ahead of noted “Big 

Six” leagues - the ACC, Pac-12 and the Big Ten. 

Furthermore, the Sun Belt Conference outpaces its 

non-automatic qualifying BCS partners in the WAC, 

Conference USA and the MAC. 

The world has taken notice of the Sun Belt Conference 

as well. Proof of that comes as the league now 

has two automatic tie-ins to postseason bowl games. 

The R+L Carriers New Orleans Bowl agreement 

with the Sun Belt Conference ensures that a Sun 

Belt team will play in that bowl game through 2013 

(the league has sent a team to that game every year 

since the game’s inception in 2001). The Sun Belt 

Conference also recently signed an extension with 

the GoDaddy.com Bowl, played annually in Mobile, 

Alabama, that will ensure that a Sun Belt team plays 

in that bowl game through 2017. 

Over 95 percent of Sun Belt Conference teams 

earned a multi-year Academic Progress Rate (APR) 

of over 925 as the National Collegiate Athletic 

Association (NCAA) released its annual APR report 

recently. The most recent APR scores are based 

on a multi-year rate that averages scores from the 

2007-08, 2008-09, 2009-10 and 2010-11 academic 

years. The Division I Board of Directors set cut 

scores of 925 and 900 (out of 1,000) as a threshold 

for teams to meet or face possible immediate and 

historical sanctions. In total, 95.2 percent of Sun Belt 

Conference teams earned a multi-year APR score 

over 925. Eight institutions had 100 percent of their 

programs score above the 925 mark, those institutions 

are: UALR, Denver, Florida Atlantic, Louisiana- 

Lafayette, Middle Tennessee, North Texas, Troy and 

Western Kentucky. The league’s APR numbers are 

up compared to a year ago, as Sun Belt Conference 

institutions improved from 92.4 percent of all 

programs hitting the 925 threshold. 

Prominent Sun Belt alumni include NFL Hall of 

Fame football player “Mean” Joe Greene (North 

Texas) former All-Star baseball player Luis Gonzalez 

(South Alabama), former All-Star baseball player Mike 

Lowell (2007 MLB World Series MVP, FIU), former 

member of the United States Senate and House of 

Representatives John Breaux (Louisiana-Lafayette), 

country music superstar Tim McGraw (Louisiana- 

Monroe) and actor Andy Garcia (FIU). 

The conference’s first 36 years have also produced 

numerous individual national champions along with 

Olympic track medalists including Earl Bell, Tom 

Hill and Al Joyner (Arkansas State), Hollis Conway 

(Louisiana-Lafayette), and Tayna Lawrence (FIU). Old 

Dominion’s Anne Donovan, who received the Naismith 

Trophy recognizing the nation’s top women’s 

basketball player in 1983, helped the United States 

win the Olympic gold medal in 1984 and helped the 

Lady Monarchs capture the national championship 

in 1985. 

The conference continues to utilize television to 

grow and promote the league and its member 

institutions. The Sun Belt Conference signed a new 

multi-year agreement with ESPN, Inc. in 2012 that 

will result in unprecedented national coverage for 

the league. Fans of the Sun Belt Conference can 

look forward to seeing more Sun Belt teams playing 

on national television on ESPN and ESPN2 and 

additionally the new ESPN deal will result in more 

coverage on ESPNU. ESPN will continue to televise 

the conference’s men’s basketball championship 

game for the 32nd straight season in 2013, marking 

its longest affiliation with any conference in the 

country.

First Year in Sun Belt Signals Bright Future for GSU 

G 

eorgia State track and field will try to build off of the first Sun Belt 

conference championship captured by the women’s cross country 

team this fall. 

The Panther track and field team will also have a chance to compete in Sun 

Belt championships this spring with the indoor conference meet on Feb. 

23-24 in Jonesboro, Ark. and the outdoor meet on May 10-12 in Miami, Fla. 

Showalter again paced the group by winning the meet individually, being 

named the Sun Belt Runner of the Year and advancing to the NCAA 

National Championship meet. 

Along with Showalter, Stefanoff was named to the All-Sun Belt first team 

after she finished fifth at the conference meet. Kearney and Rubel also 

earned all-conference third-team honors by finishing in the Top-15. 

The 2012 Sun Belt women’s cross country Coach of the Year, Chris England 

enters his second season in charge of the GSU track teams. 

“Our coaching staff is extremely motivated and look to push their respective 

event groups to form a unified team effort,” said England. “The distance runners 

have already established themselves in the Sun Belt and the sprinters 

and field events hope to join in on the action and work toward conference 

championships.” 

The women’s track and field team finished third at the CAA outdoor championships 

last year, after winning the conference title in 2011. With 122 points, 

the team was only 10 points out of first place, the closest margin separating 

the first and third-place teams in the nation. 

Distance/Mid-Distance 

The distance runners contributed heavily to last year’s finish in the CAA outdoor 

championships, led by Katharine Showalter’s win in the steeplechase 

and runner-up finish in the 1,500m. 

Hannah Stefanoff placed fourth in the 5,000m, while Jennifer Rubel came 

in fourth in the 10,000m. Niamh Kearney placed fifth in the 1,500m, while 

Alison Bishop and Anna Sinclair finished fifth and sixth, respectively in 

the steeplechase. 

The Panthers should benefit heavily this year from the momentum garnered 

from winning the Sun Belt cross country championship this fall. GSU edged 

out Arkansas State 52-58 to claim its first conference title since 2001. 

Showalter earned five Sun Belt Runner of the Week honors during the cross 

country season after picking up one CAA Track Athlete of the Week award 

during the 2012 outdoor track and field season. 

Hurdles 

Seniors Tamara Moore and Leah Norman should be strong contenders 

for the Panthers in all varieties of the hurdle events after both earning allconference 

honors at last season’s CAA Championship. 

Moore was named the 2012 CAA Track Most Outstanding Performer after 

winning both the 100m hurdles and 400m hurdles at the conference meet. 

The 2011 CAA Rookie of the Year, Moore now has three individual conference 

titles and qualified for the 2012 NCAA East Preliminary meet in the 

100m hudles. 

Norman finished second in the 400m hurdles behind Moore to score eight 

points for Georgia State. She finished seventh in the event in 2010. 

Sprints 

With five returning letterwinners and six newcomers, this event group 

should be one of the deepest and most productive for Georgia State this 

season. Amy Henry begins her second season in charge of the group after 

joining the GSU coaching staff in 2011. 

The Panthers return sprinters Wande Brewer, Gabby Brooks, twin sisters 

Talia and Tatiana Colbert and Aniya Moore. GSU will also add freshmen 

Ravin Gilbert, Marrissa Jenkins, Jaqueline Obi, Katherine Randolph, 

Jasmyne Robinson and Kissa Williams to the roster.

Katharine Showalter 

Most of these student-athletes are capable of competing in a variety of 

events, including sprints, jumps and relays. 

Departed senior Charlesha Lightborne competed only one season for 

Georgia State, but she made it count. The Bahamas native earned All-CAA 

by finishing third in the 100m at the championship meet and qualified for the 

NCAA meet in the 200m. 

The 4x400m relay team consisting of Moore, Lightborne, Talia Colbert and 

Brooks placed third at the CAA meet to claim All-Conference honors. The 

Panthers should have plenty of potent combinations to form into successful 

relay teams this season as well. 

Jumps 

Graduate assistant coach Tanaya Lloyd will primarily work with the jumpers. 

Lloyd competed in the triple jump last season at Penn State and qualified 

for the NCAA championships in the event. 

Angelia Nugent departed Georgia State as one of the most decorated 

and accomplished jumpers in program history. The native of Paterson, N.J. 

reached the finals of the NCAA Championship twice in the triple jump and 

was a three-time CAA champion. 

Chan Harris was also lost to graduation after finishing third in the high jump 

for GSU to earn another All-CAA distinction. The graduate student was also 

a standout forward on the Panthers’ women’s basketball team. 

Brooks placed third in the long jump to earn All-CAA and was one of four 

Panthers to score in the event. Freshman Alexandra Johnson will be a 

new high jumper for the Panthers. 

Throws 

Travis Coleman enters his first season with the program and will lead the 

throws crew in addition to heading up the multi-events and vertical jumps 

(high jump and pole vault). Coleman was an accomplished thrower at Winthrop 

University in North Carolina. 

GSU returns all three throwers from last year’s squad and add a few more 

newcomers to the roster. Two seniors, Kesean Henderson and Sydney 

Henry, will lead the squad with a great deal of experience. 

Carressa Reeves performed well as a freshman and just missed out on 

All-CAA honors in the discus. The Philadelphia native will look to continue 

to contribute as a sophomore. 

Schedule 

Georgia State has a number of prestigious meets on the schedule in an 

attempt to push the athletes to new heights and personal achievements. 

“These meets present an opportunity for the top athletes to qualify at the 

Penn and Texas Relays,” said England. “Then, our team trips to the UFC 

Invite and Pepsi Florida Relays should motivate the individuals as they 

compete against the nation’s best.” 

The indoor schedule begins in December 2012 with a trip to Clemson, the 

same way the Panthers began last season. The team returns to Clemson 

later in the outdoor season on May 4. 

The schedule also includes a pair of trips to the newly constructed Birmingham 

CrossPlex for the UAB Blazer Invite and the Samford Invite. GSU 

visited the CrossPlex three times last indoor season. 

New on the schedule is the Sun Belt Indoor Championship on Feb. 23-24. 

Since 2005, the Panthers competed in the CAA, which did not have an 

indoor championship. Hosted by Arkansas State, the meet will take place 

in Jonesboro, Ark. 

During the outdoor season, Georgia State has trips to several big meets, 

including the nationally renown Penn Relays and Texas Relays, as well as 

meets hosted by SEC schools Georgia, Florida and Auburn. 

Georgia State will compete for the Sun Belt Outdoor Championship in 

Miami, Fla. on May 10-12. Those who qualify will compete in the NCAA 

East Preliminary meet in Greensboro, N.C. Three Panthers qualified for the 

Preliminary meet last year.

Head Coach 

Third Season 

Ohio State, ’97 

Entering his third season at Georgia State, Chris England serves as 

head coach for both the Panther cross country and track and field 

teams. 

During the 2012 cross country season, England led the women’s team to 

its first Sun Belt conference championship. GSU edged out Arkansas State 

52-58 and defending champion Western Kentucky for the title in Bowling 

Green, Ky. 

Subsequently, England was named the 2012 Sun Belt women’s cross 

country Coach of the Year. Senior Katharine Showalter was named the 

league’s Most Outstanding Performer and became the fifth GSU women’s 

runner to advance to the NCAA national championship. 

In the first three seasons under his guidance, the Panther cross country 

teams have captured a conference title, eight All-Conference honors, a 

Runner of the Year and Rookie of the Year awards, one All-District distinction 

and eleven conference Runner of the Week awards. 

England revived the dormant GSU Cross Country Invitational in 2010 this 

time at Nash Farm Battlefield in Hampton, Ga. This was the same course 

where the Panthers hosted the 2011 Colonial Athletic Association Cross 

Country Championships for the first time since the Panthers joined the 

league in 2005. 

During his first season in charge of the track and field program, the women’s 

team took third place at the CAA meet, winning four individual titles 

and earning eleven All-CAA honors. This included Most Outstanding Track 

performer Tamara Moore, who finished first in both the 100m hurdles and 

400m hurdles. 

England came to Georgia State as head cross country coach in March 

2010 after serving three seasons in the same role at Murray State University. 

He was elevated to interim track and field coach during July 2011 and 

was promoted to the position permanently in 2012. 

England guided the Murray State women’s cross country program to second 

place at the Ohio Valley Conference Championships in 2008 and 2009 

— the program’s highest finish in nearly two decades. England’s distance 

runners helped Murray State to third-place showings at both the indoor and 

outdoor conference track and field championships in 2009. 

In 2009, England coached the OVC Athlete of the Year for both indoor 

and outdoor track in Katelyn Jones (indoor) and Taylor Crawford (outdoor). 

Crawford was additionally honored as the top female athlete at the indoor 

and outdoor championship meets, and both runners qualified for the 2009 

NCAA regionals. Jones was previously named OVC Freshman of the Year 

for indoor track in 2008.

ollowing on the heels of a breakout 2011 season, the Georgia 

State track and field teams quietly put together another impressive 

year in 2012, setting a new precedent for consistency and 

success for the program. 

A year after winning their first-ever conference title in 2011, the Panther 

women’s squad finished third in a closely-contested CAA championship 

on May 4-5 in Fairfax, Va. 

With 122 points, the GSU women’s squad fell only 4.5 points behind runner-up 

VCU and 10 behind the CAA champions James Madison. This 

spread represents the smallest margin between the top three teams at 

any conference meet in the nation in 2012. 

The point total was also the second highest recorded by a GSU track 

and field team, behind only the 133 points scored in 2011 during the 

CAA title run. This season marks the fifth time that the Panthers have 

finished third in a conference meet. 

Georgia State was led by three individual CAA champions in four events 

in Tamara Moore (100m hurdles, 400m hurdles), Katharine Showalter 

(3,000m steeplechase) and Angelia Nugent (triple jump). All told, nine 

individuals and one relay team earned All-CAA honors for finishing in the 

top three in their events. 

The reigning CAA Rookie of the Year, Moore was named the CAA Most 

Outstanding Track Performer at the CAA meet after winning both the 

100m hurdles and 400m hurdles. Nugent captured her second CAA title 

in the triple jump a year after winning both the triple and long jumps. 

Nugent also became one of just three Panthers to claim four individual 

conference championships, winning in the triple jump, long jump and 

4x400m relay over two years. Moore is one of five GSU student-athletes 

to have won three conference titles, doing so in the 100m hurdles and 

400m hurdles.

Moore, Nugent and Charlesha Lightbourne were the three representatives 

for GSU at the 2012 NCAA East Regional meet in Jacksonville, 

Fla. on May 24-26. Moore qualified for the quarterfinals of the 100m 

hurdles and Lightbourne competed in the 200m dash. 

Nugent advanced to the NCAA National Championship in the triple jump 

after breaking her own school record with a leap of 13m (42’ 8”). The trip 

to the national meet was her second in as many years, making her only 

the third Panther track and field athlete with multiple national championship 

appearances. 

A year after finishing 19th at the NCAA national meet, Nugent was 

injured in her first attempt and withdrew from competition. 

A native of Paterson, N.J., Nugent concluded her four-year career as 

one of the most successful track and field performers in GSU history. 

Her accolades include being a six-time All-CAA competitor, four-time 

conference champion and a school record holder. 

Showalter cruised to a conference victory in the steeplechase, a year 

after finishing second in the event. The junior also finished second in the 

1,500m to score a total of 18 points for her squad. During the season, 

Showalter won the steeplechase at five meets and earned CAA Runner 

of the Week honors on April 3. 

At the CAA meet, four individuals, including Showalter, scored a total 

of 18 points for the Panthers in the steeplechase. In the women’s long 

jump, four more Panthers combined to score 15 points, with Gabby 

Brooks leading the charge with a third-place finish. 

Moore, Lightbourne and Brooks earned additional All-CAA distinctions 

as part of the third-place 4x400m relay team, along with teammate Tatiana 

Colbert. 

Lightbourne combined for nine top-10 finishes in sprint events over the 

season, including a third-place finish in the 100m at the conference 

championships. The Crown Haven, Bahamas native was named the 

CAA Runner of the Week on March 20. 


Men’s Competitors 

Cross Country stand-out Valentin Poncelet placed fifth in the 5,000m 

for the men’s team at the CAA championships. The native of Lillois, Belgium 

won the 5,000m race in two meets during the season and the 

1,500m race at another and earned CAA Runner of the Week honors 

on April 3. 

Kacey Rollins also earned a fifth-place finish at the conference meet 

in the 110m hurdles. The sophomore compiled five top 10 finishes in 

hurdle events over the 2012 season. 

Senior Chris Harper finished his career as a Panther with a sixth-place 

finish in the 1,500m at the CAA meet while sprinter Chris Miles crossed 

the finish line seventh in the 100m dash for Georgia State. 

Wrap-up Combined Notes 

Twelve seniors (nine for the women and three for the men) concluded 

their time at Georgia State during the 2012 season. But a strong class of 

juniors, including Moore, Showalter, Norman and Brooks, will return as 

they look to continue the success experienced in 2011. 

The GSU track and field student-athletes earned 42 academic honors 

over the fall and spring semesters. Ten indiviudals were named to the 

President’s List over both semesters, 17 made the Dean’s List and 15 

were placed on the AD’s Honor Roll. 

Redshirt junior Kelsey Spinks was awarded the Brude LaBudde 

Sportsmanship Award at the 2012 GSU Blue Carpet awards. The award 

is named for former GSU cross country coach Bruce LaBudde. Sophomore 

Anna Sinclair was named to the GSU All-Academic team at the 

banquet. 

The 2012 season for the Georgia State track and field team was the 

first under interim head coach Chris England and assistant coach Amy 

Henry. England has served as the head cross country coach and distance 

coach since 2010.
