EASTERN 2016 VOLLEYBALL Welcome!

WELCOME to Eastern Washington University. You’ve come to a very special place.

At Eastern, our remarkable Eagle family is focused on students’ success. An Eastern education is about more than success in college and success in a career. We prepare students for life. That’s why Eastern students work directly with faculty on research projects, learn as interns in businesses, schools, and organizations across the state, and change the world through their service.

You see the success of the Eastern experience in our 13,000 students and more than 100,000 alumni.

And you see it in our highly competitive athletic teams. EWU student athletes have now won the Big Sky Conference Presidents’ Cup two years in a row. The Presidents’ Cup is especially meaningful to me as it reflects outstanding academic success as well as athletic accomplishment.

Visit our web site (www.ewu.edu) and visit our beautiful campuses in Cheney and Spokane. Or stop by our centers at Bellevue College and other locations around the state. We’d be delighted to introduce you to the EWU Eagle family and show you what makes Eastern so remarkable.

Thank you for visiting Eastern. Enjoy the game!

Dr. Mary Cullinan, EWU President

NOTABLE ALUMNI FROM EASTERN WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY Established in 1882 as the Benjamin P. Cheney Academy, Eastern Washington became a state institution after Washington was admitted to the union in 1889.

At that time the school was re-named the State Normal School at Cheney (Cheney Normal), and since then the name has changed to Eastern Washington College of Education (1937), Eastern Washington State College (1961) and Eastern Washington University (1971). ’07 - ***Rodney Stuckey – An All-America basketball player at Eastern, Stuckey has played nine full seasons (2007-16) in the National Basketball Association, the first seven with Detroit and since the 2014-15 season with Indiana. He was taken as the 15th pick overall in the 2007 NBA draft after averaging 24.4 points per game in two seasons as an Eagle. He was a second team choice on the NBA All-Rookie team.

‘05 - ***Michael Roos – Originally from Estonia, Roos was an All-Pro starting offensive tackle for the NFL’s Tennessee Titans, playing a total of 10 seasons (2005-15). Including 35 starts to end his EWU career, he started all 226 games he played since the 2002 season. He and his wife, Katherine (also an Eastern graduate), have already established a generous legacy of giving back to EWU. Included was a $500,000 donation to the red turf project at EWU’s Woodward Field, which was renamed Roos Field at a dedication on Sept. 16, 2010. ’90 - ***Launi Meili – She won the gold medal in women’s three-position smallbore rifle shooting at the 1992 Olympics in Barcelona.

His most recent novel, Beautiful Ruins, was released on June 12, 2012 and was a #1 New York Times best seller and Esquire’s Best book of 2012. His novel, The Zero, was named a finalist for the prestigious National Book Award in 2006. He is an Eastern Football season ticket holder, and he and his brother Ralph occasionally contribute humorous columns to the Spokesman-Review during EWU appearances in NCAA events.

‘86 & ‘88 - Steve Smith – Smith was the 2003 Pulitzer Prize Winner for Breaking News Photography. ’85 - Colin Cowherd – Cowherd is a sports media personality who may now be heard on Fox Sports Radio and Fox Sports 1. Originally from the coastal town of Bay Center, Wash., he previously spent 12 years (2003-15) on ESPN radio interviewing the biggest newsmakers in sports as host of “The Herd.” In 2013, Cowherd’s first book, “You Herd Me! I’ll Say It If Nobody Else Will,” was published. ’85 - ***Jim McElwain – McElwain is the head coach of the Florida Gators football program. He spent 15 seasons as a player and coach at Eastern Washington from 1980-94 before moving on to a highly-successful career as a major college offensive coordinator at such schools as Alabama, Louisville and Fresno State, and most recently as head coach at Colorado State and Florida. ’84 - ***Todd McFarlane – McFarlane is the creator of the “Spawn” comic book character, a toy manufacturer and a former co-owner of the Edmonton Oilers of the NHL. A baseball player at Eastern, he paid $3 million for Mark McGwire’s 70th home run ball. ’77 - Thomas Hampson – A baritone opera singer (Baritone), Hampson was a featured soloist in the Deutschen Staatsoper Berlin’s recording of Wagner’s “Tannhauser” which won a Grammy in 2002.

Eastern Washington Match Notes Last Time Out The Eastern Washington University volleyball team had a season-best four players post double-digit kills en route to a 3-1 (25-17, 25-17, 11-25, 25-18) victory at Montana State on Saturday night, Sept. 24, to end the opening weekend of Big Sky Conference play at a perfect 2-0.

As a team, the Eagles picked up a season-best 61 kills in a four-set match. They were coming off a previous season-best in kills for a four-set match by landing 48 at Montana on Thursday.

All-Time Series The Bears hold a 14-8 lead in the all-time series. Eastern won the last match in Cheney, as the Eagles picked up a 3-0 victory back on Sept. 26, 2015. Northern Colorado avenged the loss in Cheney, as they picked up a five-set victory in Greely, Colorado on Nov. 11, 2015.

Improved Offense The Eagles are starting to find some rhythm offensively, as they are coming off back-to-back matches where they hit .250-or-better. Last Thursday, Sept. 22, against Montana, Eastern posted a .250 hitting percentage in the four-set victory. It was the first time in four matches EWU had collected an above .200 hitting percentage in a match.

EWU got off to an 8-2 Big Sky Conference record with King as the interim head coach, which led to the interim tag being removed on Oct. 28. The Eagles nished the 2015 regular season at 14-14, and posted their rst winning season in the Big Sky since 2011 with a 9-7 record in league play.

A�er s�nts in Cheney in the late 1990’s and early 2000’s, King was hired as the program’s associate head coach prior to the 2014 season. While serving in an interim role in 2014, he coached senior Kelsey Julian to All-Big Sky honors and saw Eastern receive the pres�gious AVCA Team Academic Award for its stellar performance in the classroom.

“Since rst having been given the opportunity by Pamela Parks to coach at EWU as an assistant, I’ve always thought it would be a great place to be a head coach,” King con�nued. “The values, mission and tradi�on of the university and the athle�cs department are a perfect t that match my values and belief system. The beauty of our campus and the enthusiasm of everyone here makes this university very special.”

King served as an assistant coaching at Eastern during the 1998, 1999 and 2002 seasons. The Eagles went a combined 77-16 in those seasons, winning a Big Sky regular season �tle in 2002 and advancing to the NCAA Tournament in 1998 and 1999.

“I believe EWU can once again become a top-�er volleyball program, and we are well on our way already with making this happen,” said King. “Eastern has so much to offer student-athletes, and I believe talented recruits will see the opportuni�es available to them here with our top-ight educa�on, wonderful facili�es and rst-class support. They can truly have a tremendous college experience. We have already taken steps to create a winning culture and making the program compe��ve again.”

Prior to his return to Cheney in 2014, King spent the 2013 season as the top assistant at Winthrop, helping it to a winning record and a trip to the Big South Conference Tournament. Under his tutelage, three players received Big South All-Conference honors, including a rst-team selec�on.

Before King’s s�nt at Winthrop, he served as the associate head coach at Portland for the previous three seasons a�er working as an assistant coach for the Pilots. He helped guide Portland to its best record in West Coast Conference play in 15 years, and brought in two na�onally-ranked recrui�ng classes according to PrepVolleybal.com.

King spent the 2000 season at Concordia and the 2001 season at UAB and also has extensive coaching experience at the high school level, coaching volleyball at Southridge High School in Portland, Ore., before leading David Douglas High School, also in Portland, from 2004-08.

King played club volleyball at Santa Barbara City College (1994) and Oregon State (1996-97) before earning a bachelor’s degree from Western Oregon in 2000 followed by a master’s degree from Concordia in 2003.

King’s wife, Erin, was a four-�me na�onal champion in synchronized swimming at Ohio State and later served as the head coach of the Puerto Rico Na�onal Team, winning two gold medals in synchronized swimming at the World Master Games.

ll Eastern home and away football and men’s basketball games may be heard in the Spokane/ Cheney area on 700-AM ESPN, www.700espn.com & via mobile phone app. (search for “700 ESPN the ticket” and download app). Games may also be heard via www.tunein. com and tunein’s mobile apps by searching for 700 ESPN. Larry Weir returns as the play-by-play announcer for both football and men’s basketball games, and Paul Sorensen will handle football analysis and color commentary. Weir and Sorensen will also host weekly coaches shows live from Northern Quest Casino and Resort on Mondays at 6 p.m.

Pacific time throughout the season. The 700 ESPN staff will continue to have a greater presence at football games, including broadcaster Keith Osso, who will serve as an analyst and sideline reporter at home games.

Weir, selected as the State of Washington Broadcaster of the Year in both 2015 and 2016, will return for his 26th season as the voice of the Eagles in football, having broadcast all but one of EWU’s 297 games in that span. The only game he missed was a 2005 playoff game at Northern Iowa when he was broadcasting Eastern’s basketball games in Alaska.

Weir has also spent 23 seasons calling men’s basketball action for the Eagles from 1991-2009 and again from 2012-16.

Basketball was handled for two seasons from 2010-12 by Dennis Patchin, an Idaho State University graduate. Patchin has been with the KXLY family of stations for over 30 years and has covered everything from the Washington State Cougars to the Seattle Mariners. During his time at KXLY, Patchin was also the voice of the Gonzaga Bulldogs on radio for four seasons, during which the Zags made three-straight Sweet 16 appearances in the NCAA Tournament.

Patchin, Osso and Rick Lukens are hosts of their popular sports talk show from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. on 700 ESPN. Producer Steve “The Wingman” Pry and the station’s technical staff also help with Eastern broadcasts. Weekly coaches shows feature EWU head football coach Beau Baldwin and men’s basketball head coach Jim Hayford.
