THE PREMIER LEADER DEVELOPMENT INSTITUTION IN THE NATION The United States Military Academy is renowned because of its historic and distinguished reputation as a military academy, and as a leading, progressive institution of higher education. Made legendary in books and movies produced over the years, the Academy’s “Long Gray Line” of graduates includes some of our nation’s most famous and influential men: Ulysses S. Grant, Robert E. Lee, Thomas “Stonewall” Jackson, George S. Patton, Omar Bradley, Douglas MacArthur, Dwight Eisenhower and Norman Schwarzkopf. Because of this superb education and leadership experience, West Point graduates historically have been sought for high level civilian and military leadership positions. Their numbers include two U.S. presidents, several ambassadors, state governors, legislators, judges, cabinet members, educators, astronauts and corporate executives. Today, West Point continues to provide hundreds of young men and women the unique opportunity to develop physically, ethically and intellectually while building a foundation for an exciting, challenging and rewarding career as an Army officer in the service of our nation. Cadets have much more responsibility in running the Academy than students in most other colleges or universities. It adds to the leadership experience. Cadets succeed at West Point because of the support they receive from the staff and faculty. After all, many faculty members are West Point graduates and understand the challenge cadets face on a daily basis. They also serve as ideal role models, showing cadets what Army life is like. The U.S. Military Academy’s primary strength is its ability to develop leaders of character who are committed to “Duty, Honor, Country” and selfless service to our nation.

2009-10 ARMY MEN’S TENNIS

DISTINGUISHED GRADUATES

BORMAN

GRANT

ROBERT E. LEE ’29

The Academy’s ninth Superintendent (1852-55), Lee was a model cadet during his four years at West Point. He graduated second in his class and never earned a single demerit during his four years at the Academy. At the beginning of the Civil War, he was selected to serve as Commanding General of the Army, but instead resigned his commission and was named General-In-Chief of the Confederate Army from 1861 to 1865. Lee’s surrender to Ulysses S. Grant (USMA 1843), at Appomattox Court House, Va., ended the Civil War. Fort Lee, Va., was named in his honor.

ULYSSES S. GRANT ’43

Grant distinguished himself during the Civil War at the Battle of Vicksburg in 1863; his victory secured control of the Mississippi River for the Union. President Abe Lincoln later appointed him Commanding General of the Army in March 1864. On April 9, 1865, at Appomattox Court House, Va., Robert E. Lee (USMA 1829) surrendered the Army of Northern Virginia to him, ending the Civil War. Grant later served as the 18th President of the United States from 1869 to 1877. Today, his image graces the $50 bill.

GEORGE W. GOETHALS ’80

Goethals became an architect and was builder of the Panama Canal, 1904 TO 1914.

JOHN J. PERSHING ’86

Considered the second most senior officer in Army history, behind only George Washington, Pershing served as commander of the American Expeditionary Force during World War I. The two-million-plus troops of the AEF made a decisive contribution to the defeat of Imperial Germany. Pershing’s abilities as a leader distinguished him among European commanders, and through repeated successes on the battlefield, promoted American prestige around the world. He served as Army Chief of Staff in 1921, and was named General of the Armies of the United States upon his retirement in 1924.

HAIG

DOUGLAS MacARTHUR ’03

After World War I, MacArthur returned to West Point to serve as the Academy’s 31st Superintendent from 1919 to 1922. During that time, he was responsible for the revitalization of the Academy.

GEORGE S. PATTON JR. ’09

“Old Blood and Guts,” Patton was one of the most colorful commanders in the Army. During World War II the famed commander of the 2nd Armored Division and later the Third Army displayed courage and daring as prominently as the pair of ivory handled revolvers he wore. Patton accomplished one of the most remarkable feats in military history in December 1944, when he quickly turned the Third Army northward to reinforce the Allied southern flank against the German attack in the Battle of the Bulge. The General’s doctrine of aggressive employment of massive armor forces continue to prove themselves in combat arenas around the world.

OMAR N. BRADLEY ’15

During his career, Bradley earned a reputation as one of the best infantry commanders in World War II. He commanded the 82nd Airborne and 28th Infantry Divisions before going on to command the 1st Army and the 12th Army Group. After the war he served as Army Chief of Staff from 1948 to 1949 and served as the first Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff from 1949 to 1953. He was the last Army officer to be promoted to General of the Army (five stars), and the Bradley fighting vehicle is named in his honor.

“My four years at West Point were wonderful. I loved every minute of it and particularly the last three years. I loved the history. I loved the tradition. I liked wearing the uniform. I felt like I belonged there. Everything was meaningful to me. There is no question in my mind the proudest day of my father’s life was the day I graduated from West Point. There is a picture of the two of us standing on ‘The Plain’ and he is just beaming.” - GENERAL H. NORMAN SCHWARZKOPF “I was so proud to be on the verge of entering the only institution in American society at that time that was totally integrated, in which I would have the opportunity to rise, based solely on performance and ability. The nation always looks to West Point and always looks to each and every one of you to follow always the angels of your nature.” - GENERAL COLIN POWELL “In every corner of America, the words ‘West Point’ command immediate respect. This place where the Hudson River bends is more than a fine institution of learning. The United States Military Academy is the guardian of values that have shaped the soldiers who have shaped the world.” - PRESIDENT GEORGE W. BUSH

THE UNITED STATES MILITARY ACADEMY The mission of the U.S. Military Academy is to educate, train, and inspire the Corps of Cadets so that each graduate is a commissioned leader of character committed to the values of Duty, Honor, Country; professional growth throughout a career as an officer in the U.S. Army; and a lifetime of selfless service to the Nation. Founded on March 16, 1802, the Academy celebrated its Bicentennial in 2002. But West Point’s role in America’s history dates to the Revolutionary War, when both sides realized the strategic importance of the commanding plateau on the west bank of the Hudson River. Gen. George Washington considered West Point to be the most strategic position in America. He personally selected Thaddeus Kosciuszko, one of the heroes of Saratoga, to design the fortifications in 1778 after problems arose with French engineers originally placed in charge of the design. In 1779, General Washington transferred his headquarters to West Point. Continental soldiers built forts, batteries and defensive barriers. A 100-ton iron chain was extended across the Hudson to control river traffic. Today, several links from that chain are arranged at Trophy Point as a reminder of West Point’s original fortifications. In 1802 President Thomas Jefferson signed the legislation establishing the U.S. Military Academy to create an institution devoted to the arts and sciences of warfare. This effectively eliminated America’s wartime reliance on foreign engineers and artillerists. West Point became the nation’s first engineering school and served as the model for engineering programs which were eventually established at other colleges. Col. Sylvanus Thayer, the “Father of the Military Academy,” served as Superintendent from 1817 through 1833. He upgraded academic standards, instilled military discipline and emphasized honorable conduct. Early graduates were largely responsible for the construction of the nation’s initial railway lines, bridges, harbors, and roads. Although the curriculum maintains its focus on engineering, in recent decades the program of instruction has markedly changed, providing cadets a selection of more than 40 majors. This tradition of academic and military excellence, guided by a demanding standard of moral and ethical conduct, remains the cornerstone of the West Point experience. It is said at West Point that “much of the history we teach was made by those people we taught.” The Academy has produced famous leaders throughout its illustrious past…Civil War Generals Grant, Sherman, Lee, and Jackson, to name but a few. In World War I, 34 of the 38 corps and division commanders were graduates. World War II would see many graduates reach brigadier general or higher, to include Eisenhower, MacArthur, Bradley and Patton. In more recent conflicts, MacArthur, Ridgway, Westmoreland, Abrams, Schwarzkopf and Abizaid were in command. Academy graduates have also excelled in air and space exploration, and countless others went on from military service to become leaders in medicine, law, business, religion and science. Since its founding, the Military Academy fulfills the same mission as it always has . . . to educate, train, and inspire the Corps of Cadets. It accomplishes this mission by developing cadets in three essential areas: intellectual, physical and military. These developmental paths are balanced and fully integrated into the daily life of each young man and woman at the Academy. Intellectual growth is fostered through an academic curriculum that provides a broad liberal education in the arts and sciences. The electives program builds upon the foundation of the core, allowing cadets to develop even greater competence in selected areas. In addition, the fields-of-study and majors nurture the development of creativity, critical thinking, and self-directed learning, essential characteristics of 21st century officers. The four-year academic experience leads to a bachelor of science degree and a commission as a second lieutenant in the Army. Physical development is achieved through a rigorous athletic

and physical education program. Each cadet participates at the intercollegiate, club or intramural level each semester. This readies the cadet for the physical demands of military life and helps teach good judgment and self-discipline, even while under mental and physical stress. Military development begins with the cadet’s first day at West Point. Most military training takes place during the summer, with new cadets undergoing Cadet Basic Training, or Beast Barracks, their first year, followed the second summer by Cadet Field Training. Cadets spend their third and fourth summers serving in active Army units around the world; attending specialty training such as airborne, air assault or northern warfare or helping to train the first- and second-year cadets. The Cadet Leader Development System seeks to give the cadets increasing responsibility until they are ready to receive their commissions and assume their duties as leaders in today’s Army. Moral and ethical values guide cadets throughout their four years at West Point. Commitment to the Academy’s “Bedrock Values,” based on integrity and respect for the dignity of others, begins on the first day. Integrity is reflected in the Cadet Honor Code which states: “A cadet will not lie, cheat, steal, or tolerate those who do.” Respect denotes that cadets treat others with the same respect and dignity they themselves would expect. At West Point, it is not enough to train leaders—they must be leaders of character. Admission is keenly competitive and is open to young men and women from all states and territories and from every socioeconomic level. Prospective cadets must receive a nomination by a member of Congress or from the Department of the Army. The Academy seeks candidates who possess records of success in academics, athletics and leadership indicative of well-rounded individuals. Although the life of a cadet is demanding, there remains an array of club activities ranging from golf, skiing, boxing, crew and orienteering to such organizations as the cadet radio station, Habitat for Humanity and Big Brothers-Big Sisters. Additionally, the U.S. Corps of Cadets hosts a Special Olympics event each spring. Today’s Military Academy is a vastly different institution from the small academy legislated into being by Congress in 1802. Originally just 1,800 acres, the Academy has grown to more than 16,000 acres. The first graduating class numbered just two men; today’s classes graduate more than 900 new officers annually, both men and women, who are prepared for leadership roles within the Army. With the expansion of knowledge and the changing needs of the United States Army and the nation, life at West Point has changed to keep pace. Ever mindful of its rich heritage, the U.S. Military Academy is developing leaders for tomorrow, and its focus remains the national needs of the 21st century.

HEAD COACH JIM POLING Jim Poling will enter his eighth season at the helm of the Army men’s tennis program this year. Poling, twice named the Patriot League “Coach of the Year,” led the team to a 4-2 record in conference play last spring and a second place finish in the League Championships. In seven years at the Academy, Poling has mentored three Patriot League “Players of the Year” (Arnie Albornoz - 2003, John Sabia - 2004, Carl Fisher 2006) and has taken the Black Knights to the conference championship match in all seven seasons. Army has now appeared in the Patriot League championship match 15 times in the last 16 seasons. The last three seasons, Army dropped the final match of the championships to service academy rival Navy. In 2006, the Black Knights won the Championship defeating American 4-2 in the finals. During the 2005 season, the Black, Gold and Gray registered an Academy best 21-5 mark. In 2004, Army tallied a 19-8 dual match record, including a 5-1 mark in conference play. The Black Knights were 15-5 in 2003, Poling’s first season at the helm. Poling sports a .590 winning percentage (104-72), which ranks among the programs all-time leaders. Poling holds a 5-7 record opposite arch-rival Navy. Poling arrived at the Academy with 16 years of head coaching experience at the collegiate level, serving highly successful terms at Rollins (1993-2002), the University of Tulsa (1985-88), the University of South Alabama (1980-83) and Mississippi State University (1979-80).

The Winter Park, Fla., native continued a legacy of tennis excellence at Rollins, guiding the Tars to the NCAA Tournament during each of his nine years at the helm. After directing Rollins to a 25-3 record and a Division II national championship in 2001, Poling was named Wilson/Intercollegiate Tennis Association Division II National “Coach of the Year” in the spring of 2002. Poling led the defending national champion Tars to a 21-4 mark and a top four national ranking throughout the entire regular season. He also garnered Sunshine State Conference “Coach of the Year” honors for the second straight season (and third time in nine years), and was named ITA South Region “Coach of the Year” for the second time in six years. Poling led the Tars to a trio of top-three finishes in the NCAA Tournament during his first three years at Rollins. His Tars club posted a 21-7 dual-match record in 1996 and reached the finals of the NCAA’s. For his efforts, he was named the ITA South Region “Coach of the Year” for the first time. Poling guided the Tars to a pair of third-place NCAA finishes the previous two seasons. The veteran mentor continued to build on his list of impressive accomplishments at Rollins. In addition to leading the Tars to the Division II national title in 2001, Poling presided over the National Rolex Doubles Champions, four All-Americans, the No. 3 doubles team in the nation, the top-ranked player in the nation, the conference player of the year and a pair of Sunshine State Conference team championships during that time. In all, three of his teams captured Sunshine State Conference crowns during

his tenure at Rollins as he authored an impressive 147-79 (.650) dual-match record. A 1970 graduate of Clemson University, Poling lettered three times on the Tigers’ tennis squad. He was selected the team’s most valuable player as a junior and helped Clemson to an Atlantic Coast Conference championship the following year. He earned a master’s degree in exercise physiology from the University of South Alabama in 1982. Poling served two years in the U.S. Army and was awarded the Bronze Star for service in Vietnam after graduating Clemson. He began his collegiate coaching career with a oneyear stint as men’s head coach at Mississippi State, before moving to guide both the men’s and women’s tennis programs at South Alabama in 1980. Poling led the Jaguar men to three consecutive Sun Belt Conference titles and was twice named the league’s coach of the year. During his third season at South Alabama, the Jaguars captured the National Independent Tournament and Poling was named the NIT “Coach of the Year.” He spent three years running both men’s and women’s tennis programs at Tulsa, earning Missouri Valley “Coach of the Year” honors in 1987, before moving on to Rollins in September of 1993. Poling is married to Marianne Ingard Poling, a member of a national champion tennis team during her undergraduate days at Stanford University. The couple has two children, Lilian and Carl.

LICHTENBERG TENNIS CENTER (INDOOR) It is hard to imagine the construction of a building having any more impact on a sports program than the sparkling new Lichtenberg Tennis Center has had on the Army tennis teams. The seven-court arena, which was completed in time for Army’s 1999 winter/ spring season, features a sophisticated synthetic indoor hardcourt surface, stateof-the-art lighting, locker facilities, coaches’ offices and meeting rooms, and an elevated spectator area that gives Army tennis fans a birds-eye view of all seven courts. Through the generosity of Herb (USMA ‘55) and Alan (USMA ‘51) Lichtenberg and the Class of 1955, Army’s men’s and women’s tennis teams now call home one of the finest indoor tennis facilities in the nation. The addition of the Lichtenberg Tennis Center has made tennis a year-round sport at West Point and has rendered the Northeast’s typically unpredictable spring weather a non-factor. In the past, Army teams were forced to travel as far as 15 miles to play in an indoor facility that was not only costly but contained an

No longer. “No college in the country has a comparable facility to what we have,” says head men’s tennis coach Jim Poling. “It makes a statement to every person that visits West Point about Army’s commitment to its tennis programs.” “I think it gives us a big psychological advantage on our opponents,” adds Army women’s tennis coach Paul Peck. “When the other team walks in they know they are standing in the best college tennis facility that they have ever been in. The building is just unbelievable. It shows our athletes and our recruits that the Academy is serious about having a quality tennis program.”

Constructed by Indoor Courts of America of Olathe, Kan., the Lichtenburg Tennis Center is an excellent complement to Army’s newest facilitiy, the Malek Tennis Center. In the spring of 2002, the Black Knights welcomed Army’s outdoor facility. Featuring enhancements to the former Clinton Courts, the Malek Tennis Center enhanced Army’s reputation for having some of the best tennis facilities in the East. Among the amenities at Malek are a spectator seating area and a pedestrian plaza adjoining the tennis and baseball stadiums. The nine courts, which are named after the project’s lead donor, Frederick V. Malek (USMA ‘59), are located directly parallel to Clinton Field and adjacent to Doubleday Field. With two sparkling facilities, the Army tennis teams will be able to better recruit top scholar-athletes, as well as host prestigious championship tournaments at the league and NCAA levels.

NINE-TIME PATRIOT LEAGUE CHAMPIONS


2009-10 ARMY MEN’S TENNIS

A season ago, under two-time Patriot League Coach of the Year Jim Poling, the Black Knights advanced to the Patriot League Championship finals for the seventh straight season. Although Army was defeated by arch rival Navy for the League crown, 2010 could mark a changing of the guard for the men’s tennis team at West Point. Senior captain Chris Albornoz will lead the charge for the Black Knights in 2010. The younger brother of former Army tennis standouts Arnie and Rafael Albornoz, Chris led the team with 16 tandem wins last season and is poised to close out his career with the Black Knights’ first Patriot League Championship since 2006. Also back for their final seasons are Johnny Lucero and Bruno Lucivero. In 2009, Lucivero won 11 of his 14 singles matches and ran his career individual record to an impressive 32-9 in three seasons on the banks of the Hudson. A Port St. Lucie, Fla. native, Lucero posted a combined 10 wins in the fall season, which could lift him to his best campaign yet in 2010. Tripp Johnson, Josh Krieter, and Matt Kuwamoto comprise a strong junior class for the Black Knights. Johnson, who paired with Phil Muhawi for a 7-4 record in fall doubles last season, earned No. 2 singles wins against Lehigh and Lafayette in Patriot League play to

aid the Black Knights, while Krieter continued to improve and earned a win at No. 5 singles opposite Holy Cross. Kuwamoto saw most of his fall success in tandem action, and will look to keep the ball rolling in the spring portion of the season. The reigning Patriot League Rookie of the Year, Donald Van Velzer returns for his sophomore campaign. Van Velzer used a big serve and powerful forehand en route to 11 singles wins, and 15 more on the doubles side, in a sparkling first season. Alex Clark, Dan Shaffer and Pete Williams used 2009 to gain experience have begun to show signs of impressive progress in the fall portion of the season. The big-hitting Clark earned his first dual-match win at No. 6 singles against Eckerd College last spring, while Williams, who went 6-5, posted back-to-back wins over the same opponent in the regular season finale and opening round of Patriot League Championship play as a freshman.

Alex Holland and Rashad Shelton will also be new faces on the team in 2009. A South Carolina native, Holland was the ranked as the sixth-best player from his home state, while Shelton was among the top 40 players in the state of Florida. Expectations are high that both will make even more improvements once they transition to West Point. The Black Knights’ pursuit of Patriot League hardware will be aided by a spate of matches at West Point’s Lichtenberg Tennis Center. In total, Army will host 16 dual matches and one tournament in the friendly confines. Army’s first match away from home will not take place until a February 27 meeting with Patriot League foe Lehigh. Army and Navy will resume their rivalry on April 11 in Annapolis, Md., before Army returns home for the regularseason finale against Boston University April 17. Bucknell hosts the Patriot League Championships, slated for April 23-25.

Headlining the freshman class is Brooklyn, N.Y. native Gary Kushnirovich. Kushnirovich was ranked as the No. 3 recruit in the MiddleAtlantic Region and also occupied the No. 30 spot on the national recruiting board. Poling, who ranks the newcomer among Army’s top all-time recruits, thinks Kushnirovich can contribute to the team immediately.
