2016 Season Outlook MEN

The men are coming off a 2015 season that saw Embry-Riddle capture its ninth straight Sun Conference title and finish 10th and 16th at the NAIA Indoor and Outdoor National Championships, respectively. In 2016, the Eagles will compete as a provisional member of NCAA II, which means ERAU will not be eligible for conference or national meets for the first time in program history. With that in mind, Head Coach Mike Rosolino has a different focus for the upcoming season. “Our focus this year has changed to concentrate more on individuals and how they are progressing from last year to this, and so the heart of what we’re doing this year is really just trying to help each athlete develop and grow,” Rosolino said. “We’re excited about the group we have this year. This year’s squad is loaded with potential, and with the attitude and work ethic they have, we’re looking forward to seeing what they can do now and especially in the future.”

Mays was a two-time NAIA All-American last year as part of the indoor distance medley relay and the outdoor 4x800m relay, while Fell was also on the outdoor 4x800m All-American team. Larson qualified for nationals with the indoor 4x800m relay team last year and is a two-time All-Sun Conference performer in his career.

SPRINTS

The sprint group will see a lot of new faces this season. Rosolino expects sophomore transfer Christian Duguay and freshman Charles Elbery to compete at high level in the short sprints and hurdles, while freshman Annile Williams should have an immediate impact as well. Freshman Kenneth Shrimpton also has a bright future ahead of him. “Kenneth is going to be incredible,” Rosolino stated. “He has the potential to go after some of our school records down the road, challenging the marks set by Leon Robinson, one of the best track athletes we’ve ever had.” Among the returners, Joe Fuller will be looked to as a leader among the longer sprint group. Fuller has been an NAIA All-American in the 4x800m relay in the past, and his experience should prove valuable with such a young group. “Joe has a lot of potential and looks to be in great shape heading into his senior season,” Rosolino commented. “We’re looking for him to have a strong year this year and really be a leader on this team.” Also returning this season is sophomore Lonnie Marts, who competed almost exclusively in the multievents last year, focusing primarily on the decathlon. As a decathlete, Marts showed that he has immense potential in the sprints, running a 7.27 in the indoor 60m and a 49.63 in the outdoor 400m. “Lonnie was great in the multi-events for us last year,” Rosolino remarked. “But we think he’s got the potential as a sprinter to challenge some of the school records, and this year we’re going to let him focus more on the sprints and it’s going to be fun to see what he can do.”

MIDDLE DISTANCE

One of the staples of the Embry-Riddle track team has always been a solid middle distance group, and the 2016 roster looks to continue that trend. With a core of returners including Jamin Mays, Ryan Larson and James Fell, alongside a solid crop of newcomers including Calahan Warren and Will Rice, the Eagles have a good mix of experience and potential among this group. “Jamin, Ryan and James are going to be the anchors of the middle distance group,” Rosolino said. “They all have great experience for us and we’ll look for them to help develop the younger guys, such as Calahan and Will. They are both loaded with potential and we think they can make an impact right away.”

THROWS

Last year’s throws group was made up entirely of freshmen and sophomores, making it one of the youngest groups ERAU has ever had. This year’s group is still very young, but Rosolino believes it could be one of the best groups he’s ever coached. “Our throws group is just incredible,” Rosolino remarked. “With the transition to the NCAA II we’re probably going to use some redshirts to help save seasons for when we can compete nationally, because our throwers have a lot of potential to do that. Brodie Lubelski and Zach Farner are both going to redshirt this year, but we will still probably see a few school records get broken by guys like Maurice Cullum, Michael Haynes and Luis Rivera.” Cullum ended his freshman campaign just a few meters shy of the school records in the discus and weight throw, while Haynes will likely challenge the discus record this season. Rivera, a freshman, also has a chance to go after the shot put and discus records.

JUMPS

Jamin Mays LONG DISTANCE

Juniors Matt Graves and Paul McKenna are expected to anchor a relatively young long distance group. Both were All-Sun Conference runners in cross country and qualified for the NAIA national cross country meet. McKenna has also competed at the national level in the indoor 5000m and outdoor 3000m Steeplechase. “Matt and Paul both bring a good bit of experience to the table, having qualified for nationals in the past,” Rosolino stated. “The long distance group has a few newcomers that can make an impact, including Noah Kemp and John Dennehy.” Kemp and Dennehy each had successful cross country seasons in the fall, and Rosolino hopes that translates to a strong start to their track careers. Kemp set a personal best at the Sand Shark Invitational in October and Dennehy dropped his 8K time by more than a minute during the course of the cross country season.

The jumps group is one of the smallest groups on the roster, with just two dedicated jumpers this season. Richard Maku, who broke the school’s indoor and outdoor triple jump records last season, will be joined by sophomore Steva Wijayasinha. “Richard broke some records last year, and we think he can do it again this year,” Rosolino commented. “He should have a strong senior season and finish off his career with a bang. Steva is going to focus on the high jump and we’re hoping he continues to progress after having a solid freshman season last year.”

James Bullock

Paul McKenna POLE VAULT

This year’s team features six pole vaulters, making it one of the bigger pole vault groups in recent memory. James Bullock will transition from competing in the multi-events last year to focusing on the pole vault in 2016. Along with All-Conference returners Daniel Cashdollar and Zachary Lietzau, the Eagles have a solid group of pole vaulters. “This is a young group with a lot of potential,” Rosolino said. “Our returners, James and Daniel and Zachary, are all coming back in great shape. We thought they all had good seasons in 2015 so it should be exciting to see how much improvement they can make this year.”


WOMEN

The Eagle women are coming off a 2015 season that saw Embry-Riddle win its seventh straight conference title and finish ninth and seventh at the NAIA Indoor and Outdoor National Championships, respectively. Head Coach Mike Rosolino believes that this year’s squad could be even better than last year’s, although the Eagles won’t be able to fully demonstrate that as they will not be eligible for conference or national meets as a provisional member of NCAA II. “It’s a shame we can’t compete nationally, because this is probably the most talented women’s team we’ve ever had,” Rosolino said. “If we could take this group back to the NAIA national meets, we’d have a real good shot at competing for a national championship.”

“Marina is definitely the leader of the middle distance pack,” Rosolino commented. “She has a great deal of experience competing at the national level and we expect her to have a strong season. We’re looking for Alexandria and Audrey to take a step forward this year and Sarah had a great cross country season in the fall and we expect great things from her.”

Halle Green-Anderson

SPRINTS

Halle Green-Anderson, an All-American in the outdoor 100m hurdles a year ago, will anchor a deep sprints group. Martina Tafoya is also back after helping three relay teams earn All-America honors in 2015: the indoor 4x400m, outdoor 4x400m and outdoor 4x800m. Other key returners include Marina LeVine, who ran on both outdoor All-American relay teams, and Kandice Dixon, who was a key member of the All-American indoor 4x400m relay team. “We have a good deal of experience coming back among our sprinters,” Rosolino remarked. “Halle had a tremendous All-American season last year and we think she’ll have an even better senior season. Our relays were great last year, and having Martina, Marina and Kandice all back again bodes well for this year’s relay teams. We’re really looking forward to seeing what they can accomplish this year.”

Alana Bell & Martina Tafoya

Marina LeVine LONG DISTANCE

Rosolino says this is the best long distance group he’s ever had. Alex Orr was an All-Sun Conference performer in the 5k and 10k races last year and is coming off a solid cross country season where she won the ERAU Asics Classic. She’ll be joined by a pair of talented freshmen, Josie Gray and Mikaela Hakamaa, both of whom recorded top-10 finishes in their first cross country season. Eliza Gazda is poised to have a strong sophomore season after breaking the school record in the marathon as a freshman in 2015. The Eagles also have a unique situation with All-American Race Walker Maite Moscoso. The NCAA does not sanction the Race Walk as an event, but Rosolino still has plans for her to continue training in the event. “Unfortunately for Maite, the transition to NCAA II means she can’t really compete in her best event at the collegiate level anymore,” Rosolino said. “But with 2016 being an Olympic year, Maite has aspirations to try to get to the Olympic Trials. So we’re going to help her train for that, which is an exciting opportunity for all of us.”

Gray, who narrowly missed qualifying for nationals in the long jump last year, the Blue and Gold have a solid trio of jumpers this season. “It’s too bad we can’t go to a national meet this year,” Rosolino commented. “All three of our jumpers would easily qualify for nationals. But it’s still going to be fun to see what they can accomplish as far as personal records and potentially school records this year.”

POLE VAULT

Similar to the throws group, the pole vault group has three student-athletes for the first time in school history. Returner Stephanie Mueller will likely redshirt, but freshmen Tarra Keating and Samantha Morton will compete for the Eagles this year. “It’s great to finally have three female pole vaulters,” Rosolino remarked. “Just being able to have a real pole vault practice will help all three of them improve as the year goes on. We already know what Stephanie can do, which is why we’re redshirting her to save a season of competition for her later on. We’re also really excited about Tarra and Samantha. They’re both full of potential and all three of them could be shattering records for us in the next couple of years.”

THROWS

MIDDLE DISTANCE

In addition to running the longer sprints, LeVine is an accomplished middle distance runner and will lead this group in 2016. Besides being a four-time All-American in the relays, LeVine has also qualified for nationals in the indoor 600m and 800m and has a strong cross country background, posting a pair of top-10 finishes in the fall. Alexandria Meneses, an AllSun Conference performer last year, and Audrey Parios are expected to make big contributions this year, as is freshman Sarah Edens.

While having three throwers on the team might not sound like a lot, for Rosolino, this is the biggest throws group he’s had. Sophomore Christina Isenard, who broke the school’s shot put record last year, is the lone returner. She’ll be joined by freshmen Paige Bussard and Caitlyn Joslin. “We’re really excited about the future of all three of our throwers,” Rosolino stated. “They’re all working together and pushing each other to get better, and I’d be shocked if they don’t break some school records over the next couple of years.”

JUMPS

The Eagles have three national-level jumpers according to Rosolino, including Green-Anderson, who was an All-American last year in the long jump, and Daisha Brown, who qualified for both indoor and outdoor nationals in the triple jump. Along with Kortney

Mike Rosolino enters his 12th year as the head coach of the Embry-Riddle track and field team and recently finished his 14th year with the cross country program as head coach. Rosolino has coached the track and field team since it’s inception in 2005. Over the last 11 seasons with the track and field team, Rosolino has led the men to nine conference championships and the women to seven league titles. He has coached numerous conference champions, 78 indoor All-American honors, 78 outdoor All-American honors and seven National Champions: Crystal Bardge (60m hurdles, 2011 indoor; 100m hurdles, 2011 outdoor; 100m hurdles, 2012 outdoor), Nicole Bonk (3000m race walk; 2012, 13 indoor; 5000m race walk, 2012 outdoor), Mike Edwards (high jump, 2013 indoor and outdoor), Beth McCubbin (1000m; 2008, 09 indoor), Sam Vazquez (1000m, 2011 indoor), Reta Woodard (weight throw, 2012 indoor; hammer throw, 2013; weight throw, 2014 indoor; hammer throw, 2014 outdoor), and Ellie Staker (800m, 2015 indoor). In his first year (2005), Embry-Riddle participated in their first Florida Sun Conference/Region XIV meet where the men’s and women’s teams both finished second in the conference and fourth and sixth, respectively, overall. He sent two runners to compete at the NAIA National Championships, a first in school history. The following year was a great year for Rosolino as he sent runners to both the NAIA Indoor and Outdoor National Championships and came back with two All-Americans. On the national stage, his team was awarded the Buffalo Funds Five Star Award, honoring a team

6

who embraces the five core character values of the NAIA. In 2007, the Eagle men earned their first conference championship under Rosolino and he was named the men’s conference Coach of the Year. The 2008 campaign was a great success as the men’s team repeated as Sun Conference Champions and Rosolino repeated as the conference Coach of the Year on the men’s side. In 2009, the men’s team clinched their third consecutive Sun Conference crown and the women’s team earned their first Sun Conference title. Rosolino was named the Sun Conference Coach of the Year for both the men and women. The 2010 season saw both the men’s and women’s squads add another conference championship to the trophy case, giving the men four straight titles while the women won their second consecutive championship. The 2011 season was arguably the greatest season in school history, as Rosolino coached two athletes to a total of three national titles, both squads captured conference titles and both the men’s and women’s teams placed in the top 12 at both the indoor and outdoor NAIA National Championships. The 2012 season was greater than the last, as Rosolino coached three athletes to a total of four national titles, both squads continued to dominate The Sun Conference as each won another title and the women placed in the top five in both the indoor and outdoor NAIA National Championships. During the 2013 campaign, Rosolino coached three athletes to three national titles, both squads won conference titles and had solid performances in the NAIA National Championships as the women finished 12th in the indoor and 18th at the outdoor, while the men finished 18th at both meets. Over the last 14 cross country seasons, Mike Rosolino’s runners have dominated Sun Conference competition. The men’s team had nine straight league titles to its credit, while the women’s team has seven conference titles, before making the switch to NCAA DII. The Eagles run began in 2005 when the Embry-Riddle men captured the program’s first league and NAIA Regional titles and made their first team appearance at the NAIA National Championship. A year later, Rosolino’s student-athletes repeated that performance and were joined by the ERAU women who claimed their first regional and conference crowns. Rosolino has been named The Sun Conference Cross Country Coach of the Year 16 times in his Embry-Riddle career, nine times for the men and seven times on the women’s side, and the NAIA Region XIV Coach four times. He picked up his latest league coaching accolades in 2014 after leading the men’s team to its 10th straight conference championship. In the NAIA National Championship, the Eagle men have had four All-American honors and have finished in the top 10 three times. The latest was a fifth place finish in 2009. In 2013, the Blue and Gold men placed 16th at the National Championship. On the women’s side the Eagles’ best finish was 16th place in 2009. In 2013, the Eagles finally claimed their first All-American on the women’s side when Ellie Staker placed 21st individually at the National Championships. Along with training top-of-the-line athletes, Rosolino sets the highest standards for his athletes in the classroom. In the past nine seasons, he has coached 43 Daktronics-NAIA Scholar-Athlete honorees. His teams have also consistently earned NAIA Scholar Team recognition. A long-time veteran of the sport, Rosolino came to Embry-Riddle from Presbyterian College in Clinton, S.C., where he spent two years on the coaching staff for the Blue Hose. He began his stint at PC as an assistant coach

and was elevated to the head job after just six months. Despite the brevity of his tenure with the program, Rosolino guided the Blue Hose to their best finishes in school history, producing two South Atlantic Conference Runners of the Year and a Freshman of the Year in the process. Rosolino’s teams were equally as successful off the field. Four student-athletes earned Academic All-American status under his watchful eye, while both squads earned Academic All-America Team accolades. Prior to earning his position within the Presbyterian athletic department, Rosolino spent four academic years (1997-01) as the Director of Residence Life in Clinton. He also served as Resident Director for one year (1996-97) while attending graduate school. A former standout runner for Rhodes College in Memphis, Tenn., Rosolino helped the Lynx to three Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference (SCAC) cross country titles from 1993-95. In his final season, he assumed the role of team captain and finished 11th overall at the SCAC Championship meet. Rosolino also ran two seasons for the Rhodes track team, competing in the middle to long distance races. In 1995, he finished fifth at the SCAC Championships in the steeplechase. An Academic All-American for Rhodes in 1994 and 1995, Rosolino was a National Merit finalist and earned distinction as a National Science Scholar. Rosolino earned his bachelor’s degree in mathematics from Rhodes in 1996. He went on to receive his Master of Education degree from the University of South Carolina in 1998 with an emphasis on student personnel services. He also graduated from Loyola College in New Orleans in 2009 with a Master of Pastoral Studies, and is currently pursuing a third master’s degree in Theology from Saint Leo University in Tampa. Rosolino also holds a Level II certification from USA Track and Field. Rosolino and his wife Carrie have been married for 18 years and reside in Port Orange with daughter Lynnlee and son Tanner.

The 185-acre Daytona Beach campus, located next to Daytona Beach International Airport, has 4,600 undergraduate and 610 graduate students. Excellent flying weather and the resort communities surrounding the Daytona Beach campus offer students an outstanding environment in which to study, fly and enjoy numerous recreational and cultural activities. The campus is within an hour’s drive of the Kennedy Space Center and the Space Coast and within easy reach of Orlando and Jacksonville, which offer a menu of arts, culture, theme parks, shopping and professional sports.

History

On Dec. 17, 1925, 22 years after the historic flight of the Wright Flyer, barnstormer John Paul Riddle and entrepreneur T. Higbee Embry founded the Embry-Riddle Company at Lunken Airport in Cincinnati, Ohio. The following spring the company opened the Embry-Riddle School of Aviation. Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University began with a simple plan to train airplane pilots in a thorough, efficient manner and to cash in on a booming post-World War I interest in flying. Today, Embry-Riddle leads the world in aviation and aerospace higher education. After a period of decline in the 1930s, Embry-Riddle sprang to life again in Miami, Fla., as World War II erupted in Europe and the demand for aviators and mechanics surged. Allied nations sent more than 25,000 young men to Embry-Riddle’s Florida centers to become pilots and aviation technicians. During the Korean War the U.S. Air Force contracted with Embry-Riddle to train airmen in the fundamentals of airplane maintenance. In the following decades, Embry-Riddle expanded its international outreach and strengthened its academic programs. In 1965, Embry-Riddle consolidated its flight training, ground school and technical training programs into one location. With dollars and trucks borrowed from civic leaders, the move to Daytona Beach signaled the rebirth of Embry-Riddle as an accredited university and the start of its odyssey to world-class status.
