The Blood File

Meet The Big Red

As the Big Red softball team enters its 15th season as a varsity sport at Cornell, head coach Dick Blood continues to lead the program to a promising future. Now in his 13th year at the helm of the Cornell softball program, Blood is looking to regain the Ivy title that he led the Big Red to in 1999, 2001 and 2004. Last season, Blood led the Big Red to its best start in program history opening with 12 wins. Cornell went on to notch a 35-14 record, while going 13-7 in the Ivy League. The Big Red placed second in the Ancient Eight’s South Division. Alyson Intihar and Jenna Campagnolo were named to the National Fastpitch Coaches Association Mid-Atlantic All-Region teams. Intihar received first-team honors in the utility position, while Campagnolo was named second-team as an outfielder. Intihar was also one of only three Ivy League players to be named to the 2007 ECAC Division I softball all-star team. Blood collected his 300th career win May 20, 2004, in a dramatic upset of Long Beach State in the opening round of the NCAA tournament. Blood coached Lauren May ‘05 to consecutive Ivy Player of the Year honors (2004-05) and the ECAC Softball Player of the Year award in 2005. May closed out her career under Coach Blood in 2005 as Cornell’s all-time leader in batting average, slugging percentage, home runs and RBI. Blood’s 2005 team also landed Erin Murtha and Jenna Campagnolo on the All-Ivy first team and Erin Kizer on the second team. Last season, Campagnolo earned her third-consecutive first team honors and was joined by freshman Alyson Intihar as a utility player. Blood became the first Jan Rock Zubrow ‘77 Head Coach of Softball when the position was endowed in the summer of 2001. He has led Cornell to three Ivy League titles in his 12 years, compiling an impressive 396-185-1 record. Blood ranks 23rd on the NCAA Division I winningest active coaches charts with his .681 career winning percentage.

Blood led the Big Red to a team-record 42 wins in 2004 as it captured a piece of its third Ivy title. The long ball was key to the team’s success en route to the NCAA tournament, hitting a teamrecord 57 home runs. The Big Red used powerful hitting (54 home runs) and solid pitching (1.88 ERA) to earn a share of the league championship in 2001. During a play-in series, the Big Red swept Harvard to clinch a trip to the NCAA tournament. The team’s 54 home runs ranked second in the country behind NCAA champion Arizona. Blood also led the Big Red to its first Ivy League championship in 1999, compiling a 41-11 slate in the process. Blood’s squad went 11-1 in the Ivy League, improving on its second-place finish from the previous year, while earning a berth to the NCAA tournament for the first time in school history. Although Cornell didn’t repeat as champions in 2000, the Big Red won 30 games for the fourthconsecutive season thanks to a final-day sweep of upstart Dartmouth. The Big Red defeated the Ivy League Pitcher of the Year to earn the mark. Blood’s pitching staff had the 19th-best earned run average in the country in the 1999 season, allowing opponents a mere 1.43 earned runs per game. His squad was 18th in runs scored (5.23 per game) and ranked 20th in slugging percentage (.428). The Big Red was 14th in doubles (1.54 per game), was tied for 33rd with Northern Iowa and Canisius in home runs (0.50 per game) and was tied for 33rd with Coastal Carolina and Cal State Northridge in NCAA Division I batting average, hitting at a .293 clip. Cornell’s 4-3 victory over Bethune-Cookman on March 27, 1999, gave Blood his 100th coaching victory on the East Hill. The Big Red finished the 1998 season with a 37-9 mark, earning its second-straight berth in the Eastern College Athletic Conference tournament, only to have the championships canceled due to rain. Blood’s squad finished in a tie for second place in the Ivy League with an 8-4 conference slate. In 1998, Cornell ranked fourth in the nation in home runs (0.87 per game), fifth in slugging percentage (.512), sixth in winning

percentage (.804), eighth in doubles (1.57 per game), 10th in batting (.328), 12th in scoring (6.15 runs per game) and 13th in triples (0.43 per game). In just his second year at the helm of Cornell softball, Blood’s 1997 team compiled a 35-15 record and won its first-ever ECAC championship. The team also finished seventh in the nation in home runs (0.64 per game) and 18th in slugging percentage (.428). Prior to Cornell, he spent just a year as an assistant coach at Dartmouth, but was the girls’ varsity softball coach at Hopkinton (N.H.) High School from 1980-94. During his time there, he posted an impressive 264-43 record, while also working as an English teacher at Hopkinton High from 1975-1983. Blood guided Hopkinton to eight state championships, including five straight from 1985-89, and was named the New Hampshire High School Athletic Association Coach of the Year in 1985 and 1987. Blood was named National Federation Interscholastic Coaches Association New Hampshire Coach of the Year in 1995 for his many contributions to statewide clinics and was instrumental in the development of softball in the entire state of New Hampshire. He worked to establish an Amateur Softball Association for the state. In 1986, the Cornell mentor began coaching Dolls ‘n Granite and New Hampshire Granite Junior Olympic teams and his squad won the regional championships and placed 13th at the national tournament in 1993. The following year, his team won the state championship and was a regional contender. A 1975 graduate of Plymouth State College, Blood earned a bachelor of science degree in secondary education with a specialization in English. He played both basketball and baseball for the Panthers, captained the diamondmen in 1974 and 1975 and was the most valuable player in 1973 and 1974. Upon graduation, Blood coached boys’ basketball at Hopkinton High School from 1975-1981, while also coaching the junior varsity baseball team from 1975-79. He then became the men’s assistant basketball coach for two years at New England College in Henniker, N.H. From 1989-92, he was the assistant softball coach and pitching coach at New Hampshire College in Manchester, N.H., while also coaching softball at Hopkinton HS. In 1979, Blood graduated from the Bill Kinnamon Professional Umpiring School in San Bernardino, Calif., and umpired for two years in the Class A New York-Penn League. Blood and his wife, Judy, reside in Ithaca.

Pitchers Returning for her fourth campaign, senior Jenn Meunier has been the team leader in wins the last three seasons (17, 17, 19). Armed with a 63-64 mph fastball and a slick backhand change, she has been one of the top performers in the Ivy League. Joining Meunier in the clay circle will be sophomore Dana Robbins. Robbins, a lefty, picked up a valuable win in relief last year versus Ivy League champions Harvard. The lefthander has a biting curveball and a very deceptive change. Cornell will count on freshmen Alexandra Tomlinson and Elizabeth Dalrymple to contribute immediately. Both players have sound mechanics and both throw hard. Each has a four-pitch arsenal and defends the mound with athleticism.

winning percentage on a 396-185-1 overall record, including an Ivy League mark of 107-57. Blood will again be joined in the dugout for the sixth season by Julie Platt Farlow ’97, whose career batting average of .375 was tops in Cornell history until Lauren May surpassed her in 2005. Also back for his fifth year with Blood, is volunteer assistant coach Bill Butler. The Big Red returns 17 veterans who will join five newcomers. The rookies join the team bringing vast experience and will look to work their way into the lineup. Cornell returns senior pitcher Jenn Meunier to the mound, and will bring back all three of its starting outfielders whose speed and agility helps the Big Red both offensively and defensively. With great depth in the infield, Cornell will experiment to find its best fit.

In March, the Big Red will enter its 15th season of play. Cornell will continue its quest to regain the coveted Ivy League title, which it claimed for the third time in 2004. The Big Red loses just two seniors from last season, while nine rookies made an immediate impact on the field and at the plate in 2007. With a 13-7 league record, the Big Red finished in second place in the south division, just one game behind Penn. Senior co-captains Samantha Hare and Liz Larkin will lead the Big Red this season. Both middle infielders by trade, Hare and Larkin can play multiple positions with experience at first base, second base, third base, shortstop and outfield. The classmates have demonstrated drive throughout their time on East Hill. They have experienced the highs and lows of three seasons and have come through with extra determination. Both have lived the physical, mental and emotional bumps and bruises that come with the game and are highly respected by their teammates. Hare and Larkin will be joined by classmates Jenna Campagnolo, Adrienne Matta, Jenn Meunier and Ashley Wolf on the road to an Ancient Eight championship. The Big Red has finished one game short of the title in each of their three seasons, and the six seniors are determined not to let it elude them again. Cornell returns two first-team All-Ivy players in sophomore Alyson Intihar and senior Jenna Campagnolo. Intihar was also named first-team NFCA Mid-Atlantic All-Region as well as firstteam ECAC, while Campagnolo received second-team NFCA Mid-Atlantic All-Region honors. Head coach Dick Blood returns for his 13th season at the helm for the Big Red. In his 12 seasons, he has recorded a .681

Catcher The position of catcher will be capably handled by junior Nicole Cheever and sophomore Vanessa Leonhard. Cornell will look for more offensive production from the pair of receivers in 2008. Quick feet and strong throwing arms enabled Cheever, Leonhard, and Sarah Ruben ’07 to shut down the opponents’ running game last year. The three combined to boast a .997 fielding percentage, making only one error in 310 chances. Sophomores Ashley Garvey, Abby Marlow and junior walk-on Jaime Tupino could also see time behind the plate. Infield Cornell has added depth at first base this year. First-team regional All-American Alyson Intihar brings experience, a .351 batting average and 11 home runs to the lineup. A season ago, she played 25 games at first, 15 at second, seven at shortstop, and one at third base. Classmate Ashley Garvey is a smoothfielding lefty. Garvey is a good contact hitter capable of driving in runs. Senior Adrienne Matta can provide solid defense as well. Matta also plays third base. Elise Menaker and Ali Tomlinson will add dependable gloves in reserve. Intihar, Devon March, and Lauren Battaglia handled second base last year. While March roamed the outfield spaces a little, Intihar and March formed a defensive wall near the keystone corner. March covers a lot of ground and is prepared to take a knee on every ball. Kristin Andrzejewski, Izzy Pines and Jaime Tupino are solid defenders at second base as well as other infield locations. Last season third base was ably handled by Menaker. She batted .331 with eight longballs, while playing in 48-49 games. Adrienne Matta, Liz Larkin and Kristin Andrzejewski will help Menaker as the year unfolds. Each has put in plenty of time to improve her overall defensive ability. Pines played third base last year as well. Having played right field as a freshman and shortstop as a sophomore and junior, co-captain Sam Hare returns for her fourth campaign. Hare logged seven-plus games at shortstop as a freshman when All-American Lauren May aggravated a hamstring. Hare’s dependable hands, good range, and keen instincts bode well for the young infield. Larkin, Andrzejewski, Intihar and Pines are all able to fill in. Junior Jessy Berkey, sophomore Abby Marlow, freshman Ali Tomlinson, sophomore Dana Robbins and freshman Ashley Garvey could all share time in the designated player slot. As pitchers too, Tomlinson and Robbins might add defensive flexibility to the role. Last season, Berkey hit .318 with 11 doubles and seven home runs. Outfield Left, center and right field will all look familiar this season. Veterans Meg Risica, Jenna Campagnolo and Ashley Wolf all return after solid years. Risica batted .262, Campagnolo .361 and Wolf .364 a year ago. All are known for their speed and ability to take an extra base, stealing 29 bases in 2007. For her prowess in center field, Campagnolo was selected secondteam All-Region. Freshman Marissa Amiraian, a natural lefty, will provide depth for all three outfield spots.

The Schedule The Big Red has another full schedule in 2008, with 55 games on its slate. The season kicks off with a third appearance at the George Mason Classic in Fairfax, Va., on March 34, where it will face Niagara, Quinnipiac and George Mason twice. Just five days later, the Big Red will be in Virginia Beach, Va., for the Spartan Classic on March 7-9. Cornell will take on Delaware, Morgan State, Niagara, Norfolk State and St. Francis. The Big Red will then take its annual spring trip to sunny Florida, where it will participate in the Stetson Invitational in DeLand, Fla., and the Rebel Spring Games in Kissimmee, Fla. Cornell will also play a doubleheader at Daytona Beach, taking on Bethune-Cookman. After returning from the trip south, the Big Red will kick off its Ivy slate. In non-conference action, Cornell will face Siena, St. Bonaventure, Syracuse, Ithaca College and Binghamton. The Ivy League will once again split into north and south divisions. Last year was the first year of inter-league divisional play, with both a north and south title up for contention. In the inaugural year of this system, Harvard grabbed the north title, while Penn won the south. Both squads earned conference records of 14-6. Cornell finished one game back with a 13-7 record in the conference. The new system allows non-division opponents to play each other twice, while division foes battle four times at the same site. The two division champions compete in the Ivy League’s best-of-three championship held at the home of the higher seed. The winner gains an NCAA automatic berth.

Cornell hallmarks, as is attention to undergraduate education. The university’s 2,200 faculty members are active teachers as well as researchers—Nobel laureates often conduct introductory courses— and the lines of traditional disciplines are easily crossed. Engineering students dabble in photography; theatre arts students explore the world of computers; physics majors learn landscape architecture. National Science Foundation studies on programs in research and development at U.S. universities consistently rank Cornell among the top 10 or 11 in total research and development expenditures, and in federally financed expenditures. Cornell ranks second among U.S. universities in funds allocated by the National Science Foundation for programs in academic science and engineering. Cornell has five national research centers: the Center for High Energy Synchrotron Studies, the Floyd R. Newman Laboratory of Nuclear Studies, the National Astronomy and Ionosphere Center (which operates the world’s largest radio-radar telescope, in

In the mid 1800s, two New York state senators, Ezra Cornell and Andrew Dickson White, shared the bold dream of founding a “truly great university.” Cornell, a plain-spoken inventor, wanted “an institution where any person can find instruction in any study,” including the mechanical arts and agriculture. White, a scholarly graduate of Oxford and Yale, yearned to establish a university where “truth shall be taught for truth’s sake” in the arts and sciences. Together they created a nonsectarian university that was the first in the eastern United States to admit women and that pioneered the concept of elective courses. Their egalitarian vision and innovative ideas, which set Cornell apart at its opening in 1868, continue to guide the university today. Cornell includes 13 colleges and schools. On the Ithaca campus are the seven undergraduate units—the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences; the College of Architecture, Art, and Planning; the College of Arts and Sciences; the College of Engineering; the School of Hotel Administration; the College of Human Ecology; and the School of Industrial and Labor Relations—as well as four graduate and professional units: the Graduate School, the Law School, the Johnson Graduate School of Management, and the College of Veterinary Medicine. (The Weill Medical College and the Weill Graduate School of Medical Sciences are in New York City.) An Ivy League university that is also the land grant institution of New York State, Cornell is a unique combination of public and private divisions committed to teaching, research, and public service. Cornell’s 13,700 undergraduates and 6,000 graduate and professional students come from all 50 states and more than 100 countries. Interdisciplinary study and research are

At a research institution, scholars don’t just acquire knowledge — they help create it. Cornell’s faculty members have garnered such prizes as the Nobel and the Pulitzer, not to mention MacArthur “genius” grants and countless other honors. These same luminaries teach undergraduate classes and include students on their research teams. Cornell serves as a land grant institution, receiving funding from New York State for its colleges of Human Ecology, Agriculture and Life Sciences and Veterinary Medicine and for its School of Industrial and Labor Relations. In return, the university offers reduced tuition to state residents in those colleges and helps citizens apply the research generated here to improve the state’s economy and the health of its people. A network of more than 200,000 alumni around the world supports the efforts of current students by sponsoring internships, offering career counseling and mentorship, and providing much of the financial support that maintains the university’s world-class libraries, laboratories, and faculty. Four thousand courses offered by nearly 100 departments, more interdisciplinary programs than you’ll find at any other university in the country, research opportunities for undergraduates in nearly every field, and faculty-guided independent study give you the wherewithal to shape a program that speaks to your interests and passions and grows with you over your four years here.

CORNELL’S UNDERGRADUATE COLLEGES AND SCHOOLS College of Agriculture and Life Sciences College of Architecture, Art, and Planning College of Arts and Sciences College of Engineering School of Hotel Administration College of Human Ecology School of Industrial and Labor Relations 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.

Arecibo, Puerto Rico), the Cornell Nanofabrication Facility, and the National Science and Technology Center for Computer Graphics and Scientific Visualization. The university also has four national resource centers: the Latin American Studies Program, the East Asia Program, the South Asia Program, and the Southeast Asia Program. Cornell University Library’s 17 Ithaca-campus units provide an array of reference, information, and instructional services. At the southeast edge of the Arts Quad, Olin and Kroch libraries house the largest concentration of resources in the humanities, social sciences, and area studies, including extensive Asia collections, and rare books, manuscripts, and archival materials. Mann Library, on the Ag Quad, has materials in agriculture, biology, biotechnology, and related fields. Other libraries specialize in African and African American studies, engineering, entomology, the fine arts, hotel management, industrial and labor relations, law, management, mathematics, music, the physical sciences, and veterinary medicine. Famed for its woodlands, gorges, and waterfalls, the 745-acre main campus is on a hilltop overlooking Ithaca, a lively city of about 30,000 situated at the southern end of 44-mile-long Cayuga Lake, in the Finger Lakes region of New York state. Campus attractions of special interest include the Johnson Museum of Art, the Cornell Plantations, and the Cornell Lab of Ornithology and Sapsucker Woods wildlife sanctuary. The heart of New York state’s wine-growing region is less than an hour away, as are the Corning Glass Center and Museum and the Watkins Glen auto circuit. New York City is about a four-hour drive from Ithaca.

• The 14 counties in the Finger Lakes Region cover more than 9,000 square miles, or roughly the size of New Hampshire or Vermont, and slightly larger than the state of New Jersey. • Ithaca offers more restaurants per capita than New York City. • The Sagan Planet Walk, built to honor the memory of Ithaca resident and Cornell University astronomer Carl Sagan, is a true-to-scale model of our solar system. It is one of the only walkable “planet walks” in the world. The Sciencenter, Ithaca’s hands-on museum and outdoor science playground, is the sponsor of the Sagan Planet Walk, and is one of eight museums involved in the partnership of educational attractions called the DISCOVERY TRAIL. Some others include the Museum of the Earth and Cornell’s Laboratory of Ornithology.

The beauty of Ithaca and the Cornell campus is unmatched. Ithaca is host to over 150 waterfalls, all of which lie within a 10-mile radius of downtown. Tompkins County is also home to three of the six gorge parks in New York state. Among the amazing sites is Taughannock Falls (above). At 215 feet high, Taughannock has a greater vertical drop than Niagara Falls. Below, Ithaca Falls is one of the more spectacular sights, located just minutes from the Cornell campus.

TOM HOWLEY 13th Year at Cornell Assistant Director of Athletics for Athlete Performance Tom Howley has been the strength and conditioning coach at Cornell since July 1995. In that role, he oversees the design and implementation of athletic performance programs for Cornell’s 36 varsity sports. The comprehensive, year-round programs include strength and power development, mobility skill training and conditioning, and are implemented in a motivating, team-oriented environment. Prior to his arrival at Cornell, Howley was the assistant director of strength and conditioning at East Carolina University from 1991-1995. During these seasons, the Pirates participated in two bowl games (1992 Peach Bowl and 1995 Liberty Bowl), qualified for the NCAA baseball regional tournament (1994) and played in the NCAA basketball tournament (1993). Howley was a graduate assistant strength and conditioning coach at Auburn University from 1989-91, where he earned his master’s degree in exercise physiology. The Tigers were the 1989 Southeastern Conference co-champions, the 1990 Hall of Fame Bowl and the 1991 Peach Bowl champions. Howley also served as an assistant coach with the special teams. A 1988 graduate of Tulane, Howley earned a bachelor of arts degree in history and was a three-year letterman and two year starting offensive lineman on the football team. The Green Wave played in the 1987 Independence Bowl his senior year. He was the recipient of the New Orleans Quarterback Club Student-Athlete Award as a senior. Howley is an active participant in the Cornell University/Ithaca College chapter of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes. He and his wife, Amanda, reside in Ithaca with their daughter, Anna Corrine.

Champions are crowned during the season, but championships are earned long before competition begins. Cornell’s 900 varsity athletes have exclusive access to one of the newest and best training facilities in the nation—the 8,000-squarefoot Friedman Strength and Conditioning Center. Completed in June 1997, this impressive $2 million addition to Bartels Hall reflects the university’s strong commitment to athletic excellence. Coaches and team members alike credit the center, its world-class equipment, and first-rate staff with adding immensely to the success of the Big Red athletic program. The Friedman Center contains freeweight, selectorized, plyometric, and cardiovascular equipment and has been designed to meet the diverse training needs of Cornell’s athletes. The center can accommodate up to 100 users at a time without compromising safety or function. Its unique features include air-conditioning, a 175-watt stereo system, and damage-resistant flooring. Cornell’s varsity strength and conditioning program—nicknamed “Big Red Power”—focuses on enhancing performance and preventing injury. The new facility and equipment enable the staff to prescribe year-round sport-specific programs with variety and precision. Before the training programs are designed, the muscular and metabolic needs for each sport—and for each position within the sport—are analyzed. Athletes are then assessed to identify their individual strengths and weaknesses, and follow-up assessments are conducted at regular intervals. Comprehensive workouts are prescribed to address deficiencies and promote the development of skills used during competition. Injury prevention also is emphasized. Through resistance training, the number and the severity of injuries are reduced. If an injury does occur, the strength and conditioning staff works closely with the sports medicine staff to ensure a safe and complete rehabilitation. The objective is to allow the athlete to resume full participation as soon as possible.

General Information

The Ivy League 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 All-America 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 of athletics. The Ivy Presidents extended the Ivy Group Agreement to all intercollegiate sports in February 1954. Their statement also focused on presidential governance of the League, the importance of intra-League competition, and a desire that recruited athletes be academically ‘representative’ of each institution1s overall student body. Although that is the League1s offi cial founding date, the first year of competition was 1956-57. The Ivy League office is housed in Princeton, N.J., under the leadership of Executive Director Jeffrey H. Orleans, who has been at that post since 1984.

Prominent Cornell Alumni


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 37 Ivy League titles in the last four years, including six during the 2006-07 season. That is only part of the equation. Over the last five seasons, the Big Red has had 15 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 14 NCAA tournaments or national meets in 2006-07 while getting All-America performances from 26 student-athletes. Cornell athletes were also recognized for their academic performances, garnering four ESPN the Magazine Academic All-America selections and 11 All-District bids.

The senior class of 2006 combined for a record 31 Ivy titles in their four seasons, continuing the program’s storied success in athletics.
