LAURIETORTORELLI
Fifth Season At Cornell Delaware ‘02 Assistant Coach
Laurie Tortorelli, a former AllAmerica goalkeeper at the University of Delaware, begins her fifth season as an assistant coach under head coach Jenny Graap. Tortorelli is involved in all aspects of the program, from recruiting and travel planning to developing and implementing practice and game day strategy. She also serves as the team’s defensive coordinator. It was Tortorelli’s work with goalkeeper Maggie Fava ‘06 that helped her become a third-team All-American and Ivy League coPlayer of the Year in leading the team to a share of the program’s first Ancient Eight title. As defensive coordinator, two of her units have been ranked among the top 10 nationally in scoring defense. In her first season, Tortorelli helped the Big Red to an 11-5 record
and an ECAC championship. The Cornell defense finished the campaign ranked sixth nationally in scoring defense, allowing opponents just 7.31 goals per game. Tortorelli, a 2002 graduate of Delaware, joined the Big Red staff after finishing a stellar career with the Blue Hens. The fouryear starter and team captain was a three-time first-team all-region selection, while earning third-team IWLCA All-America and first-team CoSIDA Academic All-America honors as a senior for the Blue Hens. A first-team America East selection in 2001 and conference Rookie of the Year in 1999, Tortorelli finished her Delaware career ranked second in career saves (754), goals against average (9.35), save percentage (.560) and minutes played (3,797).

2007 SEASON OUTLOOK
Big Red Ready To Take Next Step On National Stage Cornell returns eight starters from program’s first-ever Ivy championship team Few Cornell teams have entered a season with higher aspirations and expectations than the Big Red women’s lacrosse team will duringthe2007campaign.Thereturnofeightstartersand13letter winners from the program’s first-ever Ivy championship team means that head coach Jenny Graap’s squad will have a lot of teams gunning for them. Included among the returners are two AllAmericans,fourall-regionandfiveAll-Ivyselections—acollection of talent unseen in Ithaca since the Final Four squad of 2002. While that comparison may not be fair, putting the 2007 team in the same breath shows how much potential there is for a special season. How can a team improve on last season’s 12-4 squad? While it won’tbeeasy,thesignsareallthere.Offensively,theBigRedreturns its top four scorers and 11 of the top 12 point scorers. In all, 91 percent of last season’s goals and 90 percent of the team’s total points return to East Hill for 2007. Defensively, three stalwarts returnfromagroupthatallowedjust7.6goalspergame,thefourthbest scoring defense in the country a year ago. With all of the weapons returning, it would be easy to underestimate what was lost. Cornell will open the season without All-American and Ivy League co-Player of the Yearm goalkeeper Maggie Fava, Cornell’s all-time leader in assists Allison Schindler, a reliable defensive midfielder in Lyndsay Robinson (now on the Big Red sidelines as an assistant coach) and a steady jack-of-all-trades player in Rachel Spoonhower. Each will be difficult to replace on the field, but even more important will be finding a way to replicate the leadership they provided. Looking to provide that leadership will be a six-person senior class that includes All-Americans Margaux Viola and Anne Riordan,aswellViola’sseniortri-captainAshleighSmith.Returning first-team all-league picks Courtney Farrell and Katherine Simmons and talented midfielder Noelle Dowd, all juniors, will be expected to provide the offensive fireworks again this season. Junior defender Jessica Dwinell will join Riordan for the third straight season to provide stability in the back, while senior goalkeeper Mary Montague will have every opportunity to earn the starting spot in a three-way battle to claim the position that will also include sophomore transfer Renee Hughes and freshman Kristen Reese. The schedule will again be rigorous, as national contenders Princeton, Dartmouth and Penn dot the Ivy schedule, and the nonconference slate will include preseason nationally ranked squads likeNotreDame,Denver,Stanford,Syracuse,VanderbiltandLoyola (Md.). Cornell’s nine non-league opponents posted a combined .586 winning percentage in 2006, while four of its opponents advanced to the NCAA tournament.

Ready for a breakout season, Lafferty has the speed and understanding of the defensive schemes to join the starting lineup full-time as a sophomore. Diakow saw extensive playing time in the fall and proved to be a reliable line defender capable of earning a starting spot.

Linnertz has steadily improved in each of her first two seasons and is poised to break out on both ends of the field. Already a solid defender and scoring option, she set career highs in ground balls and draw controls from her spot in the defensive midfield.

Cornell may be a cutting-edge research university, but that doesn’t mean undergraduate education is an afterthought. A Cornell undergrad could spend the morning in a meeting with a professor for an independent study and the afternoon in large survey courses like psych 101. Students here work hard. Besides attending classes, there’s reading, writing, and research, not to mention preparing for exams. But students still find time to build friendships, volunteer off campus, hold part-time jobs and play sports. And while some students spend their four years close to campus, many go farther afield. They study natural medicinals in South America, marine biology off the coast of Maine, and public policy in Albany, N.Y. In addition to university-run programs in New York City, Washington, D.C., and Rome, Italy, Cornellians travel to sites around the world, polishing their language skills and broadening their horizons.

J. ANDREWNOEL Jr. 26th Year at Cornell The Meakem!Smith Director of Athletics and Physical Education Andy Noel begins his eighth year as Cornell University’s director of athletics and physical education having led the Big Red athletics program to unprecedented success while setting a course for his vision of continued prosperity. His position was endowed in December 2003 by Jack ’58 and Diane ’61 Meakem and Scott Smith ’79. Jack is a former oarsman and member of Cornell’s Athletic Hall of Fame, while Scott wrestled under Noel during his time on East Hill. The Big Red teams have parlayed Noel’s accomplishments into success on and off the playing field. Cornell’s athletic teams have won 37 Ivy League team titles and nine national championships during his tenure and have posted a cumulative .510 winning percentage or better in six of his first seven seasons. The program’s 31 Ivy titles in the last four years is a Cornell record dating back to the inception of the Ivy League, including a record nine in 2005-06. Academically in 2005-06, 11 student-athletes were named to academic all-district teams. In addition, Cornell has had 12 student-athletes named Academic AllAmerica in the last four years, among the most of any school in the Ivy League. Noel accepted the appointment as director after serving three years as an associate director of athletics for the Big Red. Since becoming director, Noel has continued to hire top coaches and has also successfully upgraded a number of department facilities (including renovating Schoellkopf Hall and building the Friedman Wrestling Center). During his tenure, he has also been a member of the team that raised $66 million in support of capital projects and endowment, helping secure the financial future of the department. During the campaign, 21 coaching and staff positions were endowed, bringing the total number of endowed positions within the department to 30, the most of any school in the country. Noel was the Big Red’s head wrestling coach from 1974 to 1988 and then served two years as an assistant director in the department’s public affairs office, implementing the athletic department’s annual giving program. At Cornell, his wrestling teams won four Ivy League championships and placed second four times. Under Noel’s direction, the wrestling team established a strong network of support from alumni and friends. In 1990, he was recognized at the Eastern Intercollegiate Wrestling Association Championships for his distinguished coaching career at Cornell, and in 1992 he was inducted into the New York State Wrestling Coaches Association Hall of Fame. He is also a member of the Franklin and Marshall Sports Hall of Fame and the Council of Mental Health and Welfare. In addition to his coaching and administrative career, Noel served on the wrestling committee of the National Collegiate Athletic Association from 1997-2001. He was a member of the NCAA Championships Cabinet from 2003-06 and serves on both the Misconduct Appeals Subcommittee and the Playing Rules Oversight Panel. Noel is a past chairman of the Ivy League athletic directors’ committee on administration and serves on the Cornell President’s Council on Alcohol and Other Drugs and the Council of Mental Health and Welfare. In 2006, he was named to the Wells College Board of Trustees. A native of Lancaster, Pa., he graduated from Franklin and Marshall College in 1972 with a bachelor of arts degree in history and received his master of arts degree in counseling and guidance from Colgate University in 1973. Noel is married to Dr. Betsy Mead Noel ‘86, and has a son Jonathan ‘04 and two daughters, Amanda ‘07, and 2-year-old Amelie.

The Ivy League
48
The Ivy League is truly one of a kind. While the 2006-07 academic year marks the 50th season of official Ivy League athletic competition, the rivalries and traditions in the League go so much deeper. The first official athletic competition between League schools was more than 150 years ago (1852, Harvard-Yale rowing) and the first football game was more than 130 years ago (1872, Columbia-Yale). In the early days, the Ivy schools dominated college athletics. All-America status, Olympic medals and national championships were routinely earned by students from the Ancient Eight. Today, Ivy Leaguers continue to claim national titles and Olympic medals — as well as AllAmerica and Academic All-America status. Hundreds continue athletic careers as professionals and hundreds more as coaches and athletic administrators. The student-athletes also are among the nation’s leading public servants, doctors, journalists, lawyers, scientists, scholars, business leaders, entertainers, educators and so much more. The success of the League comes without athletic scholarships while maintaining self-imposed high academic standards. The Ivy League has demonstrated a rare willingness and ability, given the pressures on intercollegiate success throughout the nation, to abide by these rules and still compete successfully in Division I athletics. Sponsoring conference championships in 33 men’s and women’s sports, and averaging more than 35 varsity teams at each school, the Ivy League provides intercollegiate athletic opportunities for more men and women than any other conference in the country. All eight Ivy schools are among the “top 20” of NCAA Division I schools in number of sports offered for both men and women. The term “Ivy colleges” was first in October, 1933 by Stanley Woodward of the New York Herald Tribune to describe the eight current Ivy schools (plus Army). On Feb. 8, 1935, Associated Press sports editor Alan Gould first used the exact term “Ivy League.” The first “Ivy Group Agreement,” signed in 1945, applied only to football. It affirmed the observance of common practices in academic standards and eligibility requirements and the administration of need-based financial aid, with no athletic scholarships. The agreement created the Presidents Policy Committee, including the eight Presidents; the Coordination and Eligibility Committee, made up of one senior non-athletic administrator from each school; and the committee on Administration, comprised of the eight directors ofathletics. The Ivy Presidents extended the Ivy Group Agreement to all intercollegiate sports in February 1954. Their statement also focused on 2007 WOMEN’S LACROSSE

TTHIS HIS I ISS CCORNELL ORNELL U UNIVERSITY NIVERSITY Schoellkopf Schoellkopf Field Field Schoellkopf Field has been an integral part of the Cornell campus since it was first constructed in 1915. During the summer of 1999, the entire playing surface was renovated with the new AstroTurf System 2000 surface, making Schoellkopf one of the finest playing fields in the country. The AstroTurf surface covers six layers of padding and drainage, designed to protect both the field and the student-athletes who play on it. The drainage system is state of the art, according to Steve Wright, director of planning, design and construction at Cornell. “This is the Cadillac of turf systems,” Wright said. “Water goes straight through; you couldn’t get any better AstroTurf.” Surrounding the playing field is a new Eurotan EPDM outdoor track. This replaced the Poly-Surf track that was installed in 1972 and the gift of the late Floyd R. Newman ’12. The original stadium was completed with funds given by Jacob F. Schoellkopf, Jr., ’05, Paul A. Schoellkopf ’06, Walter H. Schoellkopf ’08 and William G. Schoellkopf ’19. The seating capacity is 25,597. The crescent, constructed in 1924 to enlarge the stadium on the east side of the field, seats 20,950. The permanent steel stands were added in 1947 on the west side to accommodate 4,647. Schoellkopf Field was refurbished in 1986 as part of a $3.6 million restoration. The crescent and west stands were painted and adorned with new aluminum seating. The press box was also built in 1986-87. In the summer of 1988, All-Pro Turf was installed. The installment of AstroTurf in 1999 is the fourth artificial covering on the field since the natural turf at Schoellkopf was removed in 1971 and replaced with Poly-Turf, which was installed as a gift of Joseph P. Routh ’17 of New York City. The installation of the artificial turf has enabled the field to be used for varsity and junior varsity football games, sprint football games and field hockey in the fall; and men’s and women’s lacrosse in the spring.

On Oct. 24, 1996, the Robert J. Kane Sports Complex was dedicated at CornellUniversity. The multisurfaced complex contains the William E. Simon Track and the Charles F. Berman Field. Berman Field has been used by the women’s lacrosse team and both the men’s and women’s soccer squads, while the track is home to the Big Red men’s and women’s outdoor track teams. The complex is named in honor of the late Robert J. Kane ‘34, who was a Cornellathleticadministratorfor37years,startingin1939,whenhebecame anassistanttoathleticdirectorJamesLynah. The natural turf is flat, with vertical drainage and automatic irrigation systems. The design includes a soil mix of eight parts sand, one part top soil and one part bio-solid compost. This system can divert 5-10 inches of rain per hour away from the playing surface. A mixture of 30 percent perennial rye and 70 percent Kentucky bluegrass has been used to create the turf. This mixturewasselectedforitssod-formingcapabilities,aswellasitsadaptability to close mowing. The final phase of the complex included the addition of permanent seating for 1,000 and a full lighting system, which allows for night time contests. The field was named in honor of the late Charles F. Berman ‘49. Described as a flashy and fiery center forward on the historic Cornell soccer team of 1948, Berman was probably the major reason that Cornell soccer reached national prominence that year.

Big Red Facilities
WWW .CORNELL B IG R ED . COM
Set against a backdrop of the natural beauty of Cayuga Lake and the surrounding hills, an extensive array of facilities provides a tremendous environment for practice and competition for Cornell’s varsity teams. Schoellkopf Field and its distinctive crescent-shaped stadium may be Cornell’s most familiar sports venue, but since the mid-’90s, a number of new facilities have become landmarks as well. The Friedman Strength and Conditioning Center, a state-of-the-art facility dedicated to the support and improvement of athletes’ performances, is a place where all teams gather to train. The Kane Sports Complex, with its Berman Field for soccer and the Simon Track, and the Niemand•Robison Softball Field are also impressive facilities. The Reis Tennis Center, the Belkin Squash Courts, and the Oxley Equestrian Center, home of the equestrian and polo teams, are part of an expanding complex that will include new homes for other teams as Cornell continuestorealizeitsplanforrenovationandbuildingofathleticfacilities. Spacious and historic Barton Hall is home to the indoor track and field teams. The volleyball and basketball teams compete in Bartels Hall’s 4,473-seat Newman Arena and the fencing team’s home, the Stifel Fencing Salle, is located on the lower level of the facility. Adjacent to Bartels Hall is famed Lynah Rink, where the Big Red hockey teams perform before sellout crowds for most home games. Lynah Rink is currently undergoing a facelift, and is expected to be ready for the 2006-07 season. The Friedman Wrestling Center, opened in 2002, is located to the north of Bartels. The gymnastics and swimming teams are housed in Teagle Hall, where Cornell crews also train during the winter months. Just down the hill from campus are the Collyer Boat House and the Doris Robison Shell House, which are scheduled for renovation and expansion.

Success In And Out Of The Classroom ... To be a Cornellian is to be among the best and Cornell University’s intercollegiate athletic program is no different, ranking among the nation’s elite. The Big Red competes at the highest level of intercollegiate athletic competition as an NCAA Division I institution. Rich tradition and history follow Cornell athletics throughout the university’s storied past. Cornellians have been national champions in ice hockey, lacrosse, polo, rowing, track and field and wrestling. They have also earned spots in halls of fame, on All-America teams, on the Olympic medal podium and have written their names in record books as Wimbledon tennis champions and major league players in baseball, basketball, football and hockey. More recently, Cornell has won 31 Ivy League titles in the last four years, which is a school record for a four-year span. That is only part of the equation. During the same time period, the Big Red has had 12 student-athletes named Academic All-Americans.
DEPARTMENT OF ATHLETICS AND PHYSICAL EDUCATION MISSION STATEMENT The Department of Athletics and Physical Education strives to provide students with powerful and meaningful participatory experiences that forge enduring bonds with Cornell, and to provide for the well-being of members of the faculty, staff, and community. We offer a diverse program of physical and outdoor education, recreational services, and intercollegiate athletic competition, equitably adminstered with special attention to the needs of women and members of under-represented minority groups. We foster the values of physical fitness, total well-being, and enduring participation in athletics; teach leadership skills, teamwork, responsibility, and accountability; and administer programs that can be critical to the educational and personal development of students in keeping with the high standards of Cornell, the Ivy League, the Eastern College Athletic Conference, and the National Collegiate Athletic Association. The department promotes pride and unity within the university community and provides opportunities to develop, strengthen and maintain ties to external audiences such as alumni, friends, the educational community, and the general public by attracting interest, recognition and support.
Going National The Big Red participated in 18 NCAA tournaments or national meets in 2005-06 while getting All-America performances from 22 student-athletes. Cornell athletes were also recognized for their academic performances, garnering an ESPN the Magazine Academic AllAmerica selection and 11 AllDistrict bids.
