www.elonphoenix.com Legend of the Phoenix

Throughout history there is told the legend of the rare and remarkable Phoenix, a crimson and gold bird that lived 500 years. It was sleek, swift and strong - the most marvelous bird ever created by human imagination. At the end of its life, with death approaching, it built a nest in an oak tree and was consumed in flames ignited by the sun. From the ashes emerged the next Phoenix - reborn and renewed, with strength forged in fire. Fire, too, has shaped the history of Elon University. The disastrous fire of 1923 all but destroyed Elon. Gone were Main Building, college records, classrooms, the library and the chapel. But within days of the fire, Elon trustees set in motion the plan for Elon to rise from the ashes, stronger than ever. The Phoenix is a powerful leader and an emblem of immortality. It is a perfect symbol for a school that is constantly

renewing and recreating itself. The Elon motto, Numen Lumen, embraces intellectual and spiritual light. And so too, throughout history, the Phoenix has served as a symbol of light and knowledge. The Phoenix is timeless and unique. It perfectly describes an athletics program and an institution that are rising to new levels of excellence. There is only one Phoenix. There is only one Elon. Catch the Fire!

Dr. Leo M. Lambert Elon University President Since becoming Elon University’s eighth president in January 1999, Leo M. Lambert has advanced an ambitious agenda to establish Elon as a top-ranked liberal arts university and a national model of engaged teaching and learning. Under President Lambert’s leadership, Elon has accomplished broad improvements in academic and student life programs while continuing to develop a campus that consistently ranks among the nation’s most beautiful. The academic climate of the campus has been strengthened through major investments in faculty development, library resources, honors and fellows programs for outstanding students, and Elon’s topranked programs in study abroad, undergraduate research, volunteer service, and leadership education. In 2001 Elon College became Elon University, and the NewCentury@Elon strategic plan was developed under President Lambert’s leadership. He directed

Dave Blank Elon University Director of Athletics Dave Blank begins his fourth year as the Elon University Director of Athletics, following another year of notable improvement for the Phoenix in terms of athletic success, academic progress, marketing and fundraising. During his first three years at Elon, he ignited ambitious expansions in the Department of Athletics – including a restructuring of the Phoenix Club with emphasis on funding scholarships for student-athletes, a restructuring of the academic assistance program for athletics in conjunction with the Office of the Provost, and a plan for facility improvements, including an now completed renovation of the Latham Park baseball facility, permanent bleachers for soccer, a state-of-the-art golf practice facility, and an in-progress field house at the North Athletics Complex. In June 2008, Blank was appointed to serve on the NCAA Division I Championships/Sports Management Cabinet – a 31-member cabinet that will help shape the future of Division I athletics. During the 2008-09 campaign, five Phoenix squads earned higher league finishes than they had in the previous year. The Phoenix captured regular-season 2009 Phoenix Men’s Soccer

Koury Sr. Business Center, Ellington Health Center, The Oaks residence hall complex, Colonnades Dining Hall and the Colonnades residence halls, and several new residence halls and a commons building in Danieley Center. President Lambert has assumed a number of leadership roles regionally and nationally, serving on the national and North Carolina boards of Campus Compact and as a founding board member and president’s council chair of Project Pericles, a national organization that encourages students to become civically engaged in their communities. As a result, Elon has twice been named one of the nation’s top universities for community service in the President’s Higher Education Community

Southern Conference titles in both men’s soccer and baseball with the baseball squad advancing to its third NCAA regional appearance in the past four seasons. The men’s tennis team fell just one win shy of a berth into NCAA play, but saw its first-ever individuals earn spots into the post-season tournament. In 2007-08, 12 of Elon’s 16 sports programs finished higher in the Southern Conference than the previous year. The Phoenix baseball team went on to claim SoCon outright regular-season and tournament crowns en route to a NCAA regional appearance. Also, Elon fell just one victory shy of capturing the SoCon’s automatic NCAA postseason bid in football, men’s basketball and men’s tennis. During the 2006-07 season, Elon posted SoCon outright regular-season and tournament titles and an NCAA postseason appearance in men’s tennis. The Phoenix men’s soccer (2006), football (2007 and 2008), men’s tennis (2007, 2008 and 2009) and baseball (2008 and 2009) teams have all earned national rankings during Blank’s time at Elon. Blank became the Elon Director of Athletics in 2006 after spending six years in the same position at Drake University where he directed an 18-sport NCAA Division I athletics program. During his tenure, Drake student-athletes consistently posted a combined grade point average of 3.0 or above.

Also, Blank oversaw the addition of three women’s sports — crew, golf and soccer — as well as the completion of a $17 million renovation of Drake Stadium. Blank has served as a member of the NCAA I-AA Governance and Football Issues Committees. In 2005, he received Gen. Robert R. Neyland Outstanding Athletics Director accolades from the All-American Football Foundation. Prior to 2000, Blank worked at Coastal Carolina University where he served as Assistant/Associate Director of Athletics for three years (1996-99) and Director of Athletics for one year (1999-2000). He also spent eight seasons (1988-1996) as head men’s basketball coach at Lock Haven University. Blank’s teams won 119 games during his tenure, making him the winningest head men’s basketball coach in school history. He was named Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference Coach of the Year in 1989 and 1996. A native of Frostburg, Md., Blank attended Duke University for two years (1978-1980) before graduating from the University of South Carolina in 1982 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration (Finance). He earned a Master of Science degree in Business Administration from South Carolina in 1986. Blank and his wife, Leslie, are the proud parents of four children – Dexter, Samantha, Dustin and Davis.

Darren Powell Head Coach 87-45-12 (.646) (Overall) 37-33-9 (.525) (at Elon) Darren Powell enters his fifth season as the head coach of the Phoenix men’s soccer program. Powell came to Elon in December 2004 after serving four seasons as an assistant coach at Southern Conference rival UNC Greensboro. Last season, Powell led Elon to its firstever NCAA Division I league title and a perfect 7-0-0 mark in conference play during the regular season. The team boasted a 10-9-1 record, forward Justin Wyatt was named SoCon Player of the Year and Powell was honored as the conference’s top coach, his second such honor in four seasons with the Phoenix. Eight Elon players earned first or second team All-SoCon honors and one player was named to the All-Freshman squad. In Powell’s four seasons at the helm of the Elon squad, the program has produced 20 All-Southern Conference performers, a conference player of the year and a league freshman of the year. In 2007, Powell guided the Phoenix to an 8-7-4 overall record, marking the program’s first back-to-back winning seasons since 1987 and 1988. Elon went 4-3-0 in SoCon play to finish tied for third. Along the way, his team earned ties with North Carolina, Clemson and eventual national champion Wake Forest. The tie with top-ranked Wake Forest provided the Demon Deacons with their first blemish of the season. Under Powell’s leadership, the Elon program claimed its first-ever NCAA Division I national ranking in 2006 – appearing as high as 22nd in the Soccer

America poll on Sept. 12 after starting the campaign with a 6-1-0 ledger, including a 2-0 victory over then-No. 17 UAB. His team finished the year at 10-8-2 overall, the program’s first winning year since moving to the Division I ranks for the 1999 season. In his first season with the Phoenix, Powell led the squad to a 9-9-2 overall record and a 4-2-1 mark in SoCon action, finishing third in the league. Elon emerged from that campaign with two first-team All-SoCon selections, two second-team all-league honorees, the SoCon Freshman of the Year, three SoCon Players of the Week, two SoCon All-Tournament picks, two NSCAA All-South Region players, one College Soccer News All-Freshman choice and one USL professional player. For his efforts, Powell was honored as the 2005 Southern Conference Coach of the Year. During Powell’s four seasons at UNCG, the Spartan program posted a 55-26-3 mark and became the nation’s topranked program during the regular season in 2004. Powell assisted in all aspects of the program, including recruiting, scheduling and academic development. Powell was honored as one of the top NCAA Division I assistant coaches by College Soccer News and coached three MLS players, one NSCAA Senior All-Star, three AllAmericans, one Academic All-American, four All-Region honorees, 22 All-SoCon selections, two conference freshman of the year award winners and one league player of the year while at UNCG. Prior to joining the Spartan staff, Powell headed the Greensboro College men’s soccer program for three seasons, posting a 50-12-3 ledger. He led the Pride to the NCAA Division III finals in 1998 and Dixie Conference titles in 1998, 1999 and 2000. His program produced a MLS and English Premier League player, two NSCAA Senior All-Stars, three All-Americans, 15 All-Region choices, 25 All-Dixie Conference selections, three league players of the year and two conference rookies of the year. In 1998, Powell was honored by the NSCAA as the South Region Coach of the Year after being named the Dixie Conference Coach of the Year. The Pride finished ranked second in the nation in 1998, eighth in the country in 1999 and 12th nationally in 2000.

The 2009 Elon men’s soccer team is looking forward to building on the success of last year, returning eight starters from a team that ran through the Southern Conference slate and won the program’s first-ever regular-season league crown. The Phoenix soccer program has continued to thrive under the leadership of head coach Darren Powell, the reigning SoCon Coach of the Year. Now in his fifth season at Elon, the Phoenix has posted .500 or better records in each of his four years. “We are very excited about the 2009 season,” Powell commented. “We return 22 players from last year’s conference championship team. The players have been working very hard this spring and I hope that momentum will carry us well into the fall with our difficult schedule.” One of the most notable faces returning to the lineup this year is senior midfielder Justin Wyatt. The 2008 SoCon Player of the Year racked up a team and league-best 13 goals and 33 points. Wyatt, a first-team all-conference honoree, is currently tied for second in the Phoenix record books for career goals (26) and points (64). He netted a goal in every SoCon match last year and his ability to finish will be critical to Elon’s success. Also looking to help the Phoenix attack in 2009 will be senior Erfan Imeni, junior Stephen Dilger, sophomore Denzel Ogunyase and freshmen Chris Thomas and Archie Karpeh. From his attacking midfielder position, Imeni scored five goals and assisted on four others during his junior season. Imeni was another of Elon’s eight all-conference members in 2008, recognized with first-team honors. Dilger connected on two strikes and tallied three assists during his sophomore season. Two of his helpers came on game-winning goals, including one on the golden goal against UNC Asheville. As a true freshman, Ogunyase saw action in 17 games last year and had strong spring performances as well. Rookie Chris Thomas, the reigning Gatorade Georgia Boys’ Soccer Player of the Year, could have an immediate impact on the Phoenix. Thomas netted 143 goals during his prep career, leading Greater Atlanta Christian to three state titles. Karpeh, who joined the Elon team in the spring, has been a member of the U.S. U-17 National Team and was a two-time adidas All-American. Joining Wyatt and Imeni in the midfield will be a healthy mix of experienced veterans and young talents. Junior Brad Franks and sophomore James Carroll were consistent starters last season.

Franks dropped in two goals, including the game-winner over league rival Furman to keep Elon’s undefeated season intact. Carroll’s play earned him a spot on the SoCon All-Freshman team. Seniors Daniel Street and Stephen Miller, junior Hunter Miller and sophomores Drew Gardner and Tony Pusateri, have also contributed valuable minutes in the midfield. Red-shirt freshman Morgan Fleming can be a factor at several different positions as well. Newcomer Gabe Latigue, a native of Apex, N.C., will join Elon in the midfield after leading Panther Creek High School to a 2008 Tri-8 4A Conference title. The league player of the year earned NSCAA All-South region accolades following his final season. Senior co-captain Steven Kinney will anchor an experienced defense from his center back position. The two-time first-team all-conference selection has been a starter since his rookie season, and helped Elon to seven shutout performances in 2008. Kinney also proved a threat on the offensive end, scoring a goal

against William & Mary and posting four assists, including two in Elon’s conference tournament victory over Wofford. Joining Kinney in the back will be fellow captain Clint Collins. Collins started all 20 matches during his junior season, notching two assists and collecting second-team All-SoCon accolades. Senior Orry Powers and junior Ben Lunka were major contributors to Elon’s back line last year. Powers started in all 20 matches while Lunka saw action in 17 games. Junior Greg Mader, sophomore Austen King, red-shirt freshman Jahan Threeths and newcomers Nick Butterly and Mark Berlin will also compete for time in the back. The Phoenix will welcome the return of junior Clint Irwin in goal after an injury sidelined him for part of the season in 2008. Irwin played and started in eight games last year, recording four shutouts and a 0.78 goals against average. Despite the injury, Irwin earned second-team all-conference honors. He currently ranks fifth all-time at Elon with nine career shutouts. Elon’s lineup also boasts three additional and capable keepers in red-shirt freshmen Jordan Neuhauser and Chat Ott and rookie Reed Dillard. Neuhauser and Ott had the opportunity to learn from Irwin and graduated first-team AllSoCon honoree Kyle Boerner. Dillard, a native of Dallas, Texas and a three-sport athlete at Plano West, helped the school’s top-ranked soccer and baseball teams to national championships as a senior. The experience of the Phoenix roster will be important as the team faces a difficult schedule in 2009. Elon will meet four teams that competed in the NCAA Tournament, including College Cup participants Wake Forest and North Carolina. Powell continues to stress the importance of challenging his players each and every day to be successful throughout the entire season…including a run through the NCAA Tournament.

The Southern Conference, which begins its 89th season of intercollegiate competition in 2009, is a national leader in emphasizing the development of the student-athlete and defining the league’s role in helping to build lifelong leaders and role models. Elon joined the league in 2003. The SoCon is the nation’s fifth-oldest NCAA Division I collegiate athletic association. Only the Big Ten (1896), the Missouri Valley (1907), the Pacific 10 (1915) and the Southwestern Athletic (1920) conferences are older in terms of origination. The SoCon has also excelled as the premier Football Championship Subdivision league. Southern Conference member Appalachian State has won three of the last four Football Championship Subdivision national titles. The conference currently consists of 12 members in five states throughout the Southeast and sponsors 19 varsity sports and championships that produce participants for NCAA Division I Championships. Academic excellence has been a major part of the Southern Conference’s tradition. League athletes have been recognized countless times on ESPN The Magazine Academic All-America and all-district teams. A total of 19 Rhodes Scholarship winners have been selected from SoCon institutions. The SoCon office is located in the historic Beaumont Mill in Spartanburg, S.C. A textile mill that was in operation from 1880 until 1999, the Beaumont Mill was renovated in 2004 and today offers the SoCon a first-class meeting area and offices as well as a spacious library for storage of the conference’s historical documents. The SoCon was formed on February 25, 1921 at a meeting in Atlanta, Ga. as 14 institutions from the 30-member Southern

Intercollegiate Athletic Association (SIAA) reorganized as the Southern Conference. Those charter members included Alabama, Auburn, Clemson, Georgia, Georgia Tech, Kentucky, Maryland, Mississippi State, North Carolina, North Carolina State, Tennessee, Virginia, Virginia Tech and Washington & Lee. Athletic competition began in the fall of 1921. Today, the league continues to thrive with a membership that spans five states: Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia and Alabama. Current league members are Appalachian State, College of Charleston, Chattanooga, The Citadel, Davidson, Elon, Furman, Georgia Southern, UNC Greensboro, Samford, Western Carolina and Wofford. John Iamarino was officially named commissioner of the conference on January 2, 2006. Previously, Iamarino served as commissioner of the Northeast Conference where he promoted the conference through an ambitious agenda which improved competition, upgraded compliance-related matters and increased the marketing and brand awareness of the conference and its member institutions. The first SoCon championship was the league basketball tournament held in Atlanta in 1922. The North Carolina Tar Heels won the tournament to become the first recognized league champion in any sport. The Southern Conference Tournament remains the oldest of its kind in college basketball. The SoCon currently declares champions in 10 men’s sports - football, soccer, cross country, basketball, indoor track and field, outdoor track and field, wrestling, baseball, tennis and golf - and nine women’s sports - soccer, volleyball, cross country, basketball, indoor track and field, outdoor track & field, tennis, golf and softball.

Elon in the Pros Over the past four years, Elon soccer players have experienced success breaking into the professional ranks. Following the 2005 season, defender Anthony Catalano became the first Phoenix men’s soccer player to sign a professional contract. Catalano inked with the Charleston Battery of the USL First Division. He made his professional debut on Sunday, June 11, 2006 against the Puerto Rico Islanders. Catalano also spent a year with the Richmond Kickers of the USL Second Division in 2008. Elon has since seen two other players play professional soccer. Most recently, forward Aaron Parker signed a contract in April 2009 to compete with the Wilmington Hammerheads, a USL Second Division team. Parker made his professional debut against the Charlotte Eagles, playing in the final 10 minutes of a 2-2 tie.

Kiki Willis, the 2005 Southern Conference Freshman of the Year, signed a developmental contract with D.C. United of Major League Soccer following the 2006 season.
