A season prior Fletchall guided the Cougars to a 28-6 season, 12-4 in the division, ending the season one victory away from the NJCAA Division I Tournament and finishing at #24 in the nation.

Under Fletchall the Cougars have spent a lot of time ranked in the NJCAA Top 25 with the highest ranking coming in the 2011-12 season as Barton climbed all the way to 7th in the polls. This matched the feat of his 2009 team that captured the Jayhawk West title but lost in the Region VI semifinals.
