OUR HISTORY

UNIVERSITY SUPPORT

Seminole Spirit THE SYMBOL: SEMINOLES Florida State played only two football games in 1947 before students demanded the school to acquire a symbol. While details conflict, most believe the account of a poll of the student body is accurate. The Florida Flambeau reported that Seminoles won by 110 votes over the Statesmen. The other top contenders (in order) were Rebels, Tarpons, Fighting Warriors and Crackers. In the 1950s, a pair of students dressed in Native American costumes and joined the cheerleaders on the field, which eventually evolved into the majestic symbol of Osceola and Renegade that FSU now enjoys. Today, the Seminole Tribe participates in many campus activities. Florida State University is proud of its longstanding cooperative relationship with the Seminole Tribe of Florida. The Seminole people have suffered many hardships and injustices, but they have remained brave, dignified and proud. The Seminoles are unconquered. They symbolize what Florida State hopes will be the traits of all of its graduates, including student-athletes.

OSCEOLA AND RENEGADE Perhaps the most spectacular tradition in all of college football occurs in Doak Campbell Stadium when Osceola charges down the field riding an Appaloosa horse named Renegade and plants a flaming spear at midfield to begin every home game. The tradition was born on Sept. 16, 1978 against Oklahoma State when a student led the team from the tunnel riding a horse. Since the beginning of the FSU tradition, three different horses and 10 different riders have actually appeared at a game. However, there have been a total of 16 horses trained in the Renegade program. The original Osceola and Renegade were Jim Kidder and Reo. In 2003, local businessman Bill Durham, who had trained the riders and horses for 20 years, passed the honor and responsibility to his son Allen, who was a former rider in the 1990s. The clothing and rigging that Osceola and Renegade use were designed and approved by the Seminole Indian Tribe of Florida.

GARNET AND GOLD Florida State’s school colors of garnet and gold date back to the Florida State College championship football teams of 1904 and 1905. In those championship seasons, FSC donned purple and gold uniforms. When Florida State College became Florida Female College in 1905, the football team was forced to attend the University of Florida. The following year the FFC student body selected crimson as the official school color of 1905. The administration in 1905 took crimson and combined it with the recognizable purple of the championship football teams to achieve the color garnet. The now-

famous garnet and gold colors were first used on an FSU uniform in a 14-6 football loss to Stetson on October 18, 1947.

WAR CHANT Florida State’s “war chant” appears to have begun with a random occurrence that took place during a 1984 football game against Auburn, but in the 1960’s, the Marching Chiefs band would chant the melody of a popular FSU cheer. In a sense, that chant was the long-version of FSU’s current “war chant.” During a thrilling game with Auburn in 1984, the Marching Chiefs began to perform the dormant melody. Some students behind the band joined in and continued the “war chant” portion after the band had ceased. Most agree the chant came from the fraternity section, but many spirited Seminole fans added the hand motion to symbolize the brandishing of a tomahawk. The chant continued among the student body during the 1985 season, and by the 1986 season, it was a stadium-wide phenomenon. Of course, the Marching Chiefs refined the chant, plus put their own special brand ofaccompaniment to the “war chant,” for the sound we hear today.

THE UNCONQUERED STATUE Dedicated on Oct.10, 2003, Fritz White’s bronze statue “Unconquered” was designed to capture the indomitable spirit of the Seminole people and those who have adopted that spirit as a symbol for their university. The massive structure, including its granite-covered pedestal base, stands approximately 31 feet in the air and depicts a spear-brandishing Seminole astride a rearing horse. At sunset the night before each home game, the spear is ignited and burns until sunrise on the next morning after the game. George Langford’s endowment of the project for up to $1 million helped make the statue a reality. Fifty-one artists were then considered before White eventually saw the statue dedicated 10 years after the concept was inspired by attorney and FSU graduate Stephen Reilly.

Seminoles In The Pros

Including the 1993 PGA Championship won by Paul Azinger. Former Florida State golfers have won nearly 50 PGA Tour events. Since Hubert Green won the 1971 Houston Champions Invitational, nearly one dozen former Seminoles have earned overwhelming success on the PGA, Senior PGA and Buy.Com Tours. The proud former Seminoles have won more than $50 million in prize money since finishing their Seminole careers. Former Seminoles have won the U.S. Open (Green), the PGA Championship (Azinger and Jeff Sluman and the Buick Southern Open (Kenny Knox) while representing Florida State and the Seminole golf program.

GREEN EARNS INDUCTION INTO WORLD GOLF HALL OF FAME IN 2007

Seminole golf legend Hubert Green, who won 22 events while playing on the PGA Tour, was inducted into World Golf Hall of Fame in 2007 and was honored at the Induction Ceremony on Nov. 12, 2007 at the World Golf Village in St. Augustine, Fla. Green came to Florida State in 1965 and served as the captain of the golf team in 1968. He led Florida State to a 10th place finish in the NCAA Championship tournament in 1968 and guided the Seminoles to several impressive dual meet victories over many teams in the southeastern United States including Florida during his collegiate career. Green was inducted in the Florida State Athletics Hall of Fame in 1977 and is one of six male golfers in the FSU Hall of Fame. He graduated from Florida State and turned professional in 1969. Green is one of the most successful professional golfers in the history of the sport. He won 19 events while playing on the PGA Tour including the U.S. Open Championship in 1977 and the PGA Championship in 1985. He played on the 1977, 1979 and 1985 U.S. Ryder Cup Teams and is currently playing on the Champions Tour. Green has earned four titles while playing on the Champions Tour with his most recent championship coming in 2002 at the Lightpath Long Island Classic. His 2003 season on the Champions Tour was cut short after being diagnosed with a cancerous growth on his left tonsil and back of his tongue during a routine dental examination. Green opted to begin radiation and chemotherapy sessions and missed the remainder of the year while undergoing nearly six weeks of treatment for the disease at Shands Hospital in Gainesville, Fla. He returned to the Champions Tour to begin the 2004 season and finished 37th at the season-opening MasterCard Championship in Hawaii. “On my golfing journey, I had no idea how high I could climb,” said Green on being told of his election to the Hall of Fame. “To be inducted in to the Hall of Fame is reaching the summit; best of all is being a member of the club that hosts the greats of the game.” Green was inducted with Curtis Strange who was considered to be the dominant American golfer during the decade of the 1980’s. Green and Strange became the 113th and 114th members of the World Golf Hall of Fame upon their inductions.

Tallahassee’s Finest Courses

Although Tallahassee is known for being the capital of Florida, and home to two major universities with powerhouse team sports programs, one cannot over look the outstanding golf courses available to play in the area.

SEMINOLE GOLF 2009-10 SEASON 2008-09 REVIEW OUR HISTORY UNIVERSITY SUPPORT KILLEARN COUNTRY CLUB & INN GOLDEN EAGLE COUNTRY CLUB FEATURES • 18 Holes • Private Golf Course • Par 72.2 • 6,965 Yards • 73.6 Course Rating • 122 Slope • Built: 1986 • Architect: Tom Fazio • Greens: Bermuda • Fairways: Bermuda • Season: Open All Year

The site of 21 PGA Tour and four LPGA Tour tournaments, Killearn Country Club's three nine-hole layouts offer a challenging yet fun golf experience. The South/East Course is the longest and most challenging with rolling hills and tree-lined fairways. The North Course has a large lake coming into play on several holes, while the East Course is a little more forgiving with generous fairways and water on two holes.

Killearn’s three nine-hole courses are played in three eighteen hole combinations. These courses are home to several championship events each year and have hosted the PGA Classic and the Sprint Central. The fairways vary from tree lined to open, the greens are fast and a lake comes into play which challenges players on each hole. If it’s your dream to play where the pros tee it up, then Killearn is for you. Killearn hosted the Tallahassee Open 20 times and the LPGA’s Centel Classic four times giving it quite a tournament history. Designed by William Amick, the original 18 (the south and the east nines) plays to 6,988 yards. Many pros came to fear the fourth hole on the south course, a 467-yard par 4. From the two back tees, players must lay up short of water that threatens the fairway, leaving a long iron to the green.

Golden Eagle features wide fairways and strategically placed Scottish bunkers to create a course that is challenging yet playable for both casual and serious golfers. It is readily evident that the course architect took full advantage of the natural topography of the fabulous acreage surrounding Golden Eagle. The golf course hosted the 1995 and 1996 Nike Tallahassee Open – a tournament on the Nationwide Tour.

They say a great team is the sum of its parts. Florida State University men’s golf coach Trey Jones has assembled a group of talented players and must now develop those players into a team that will compete for the ACC and NCAA Championship. With history on his side, Jones has made it a habit of recruiting the nation’s top talent and helping those players reach their potential as one of the nation’s top teams. Now in his seventh season at Florida State, Jones has led the Seminoles to four consecutive NCAA championship tournaments and the school’s first ACC Championship in 2008. With three returning talented and experienced upperclassmen, three sophomores (including the reigning ACC Rookie of the Year) who helped the Seminoles reach the 2009 NCAA Southeast Regional championship and two highly regarded freshman who will quickly earn their place in Florida State’s starting line-up, Jones has brought together one of the top collections of individual talent in school history. “We have a reDREW ally strong KITTLESON group of players that make up potentially one of the best teams I have coached here at Florida State,” said Jones. “Each player can fit into any of the five spots in the line-up and each player has tremendous leadership capabilities. Coaching this group is going to be a lot of fun because they all have the ability to go low each round.” Florida State’s senior class is small with only two players but big on talent and experience. Seath Lauer and Cameron Knight, who have both played in three NCAA championship tournament and three ACC championships during their careers, are the Seminoles’ senior leaders. Both players were members of the Seminoles’ starting line-up in 2008 when Florida State won the ACC championship and both players helped Florida State advanced to the finals of the 2007 NCAA championship. “It’s exciting to have two senior leaders who have as much big tournament experience as Seath and Cameron,” said Jones. “They bring an intangible to our team that we have not enjoyed int the past and that’s experience. They have played in some big tournaments and played some big holes for our team. We

will need both players to use their talents and experience to lead this team and we are confident that they will deliver for us.” Lauer is the Seminoles’ most experienced player entering the 2009-10 season having played in 30 tournaments during his career. He was in Florida State’s starting line-up and finished in a tie for 13th place in the individual standings in helping the Seminoles to the 2008 ACC Championship. Lauer has been a regular member of the lineup since the spring of his freshman season and has played in 30 of the Seminoles’35 events in the first three years of his career. “We expect – we need – Seath to have a big year for us,” said Jones. “As a senior and one of our leaders his success in many ways will dictate how well our team plays this year. He has learned to manage his emotions and has improved his game throughout his career. Seath needs to play up to his potential each time out; if he does that we have the chance to be in the thick of things nationally at the end of the season.” Knight’s post-season experience makes him a valuable Seminole in his final collegiate season. He was at his best during his junior year as he averaged a career-low 73.64 strokes in eight tournaments. Knight has helped the Seminoles into the national rankings in each of his first three seasons and helped the Seminoles to a No. 7 ranking in the final regular season Golf World poll of the 2007-08 season. “We are excited about the role Cameron will play on our team this season,” said Jones. “He has displayed the desire to play any role that is need to make our team successful. Cameron can be our leader, he can be our top player and he can fit anywhere else into the line-up. His value now that he is a senior is incredible to the make-up of our team.” Drew Kittleson, a junior, is Florida State’s most recognizable player entering the 2009-10 fall and spring seasons. He played in the Master’s and US Open Championship in 2009 after finishing in second place at the 2008 US Amateur Championship. His experiences on a national stage coupled with his extensive experiences during the first two seasons as a Seminole gives the Seminoles yet another upperclass weapon on their roster. “Drew lived out every golfers dream when he played in the Master’s and US Open,” said Jones. “He has continued to improve since his freshman season as he played on two of the great courses in the world and alongside the greatest players in the world.

CAMERON KNIGHT to absorb his knowledge for 18 holes.” Kittleson earned All-ACC honors in 2009 to mark the first time in his career that he had been named as one of the ACC’s top golfers during his career. He earned 10 wins against the top 12 ranked players in the ACC and ranked third in the ACC with 27 wins over players ranked in the nation’s top 51-100 players. As a freshman, Kittleson was a member of the Seminoles’ lineup and helped the team win the first-ever ACC Golf Championship in Florida State history. His career-best score of 66 came in the second round of the spring 2009 Hawaii Hilo Invitational. More than half of the Seminoles’ roster is made up of either sophomores or freshman with each of those four players possessing the ability to earn their way in to Florida State’s starting line-up and make a tremendous impact of the presumed good fortune of the team this season. Florida State’s sophomore class consists of three players – returning players Wesley Graham and Brooks Koepka and transfer Kyle Cobb. Graham played in five events as a Seminole freshman, Koepka played in 11 events and was the ACC Rookie of the Year in 2009 and Cobb is in his first season as a member of the golf team at Florida State. “The success of the players in our sophomore class may help determine the success of our team this season,” said Jones. “We all know that Brooks is a proven player who will compete in each round. Wes enjoyed an up and down freshman season and learned a lot from his experiences. His overall improvement will be evident beginning early in the spring and that will give us a good indication of how good he can be this season. Kyle is a strong player who has a great chance to break into the line-up in his first season.” Koepka ranked sixth overall and first among all league freshman with a 72.58 stroke average during his first collegiate season. With his incredible rate of improvement,

Koepka has put himself into contention for both national and ACC honors throughout the remainder of his career. Koepka played in his first career NCAA Regional championship and in his first career ACC Championship as a freshman while playing in 11 events as a freshman to tie for the team lead in total events played in 2009. Koepka tied the Seminole record for low round score with a 65 during the Florida State Spring Break Invitational in 2009. “Brooks played as well as any freshman I have coached last season and we have great hopes that he will only continue to improve as a player,” said Jones. “He played tough holes against tough competition and made putts when he needed to make them last season. I see a very bright future ahead for Brooks; a future that I am very excited about.” Graham is an immensely talented golfer who fits nicely into the Seminoles’ championship plans for the final three seasons of his career at Florida State. He played in five of the Seminoles 11 tournaments as he became acclimated to college life both academically and athletically during his freshman season. Graham earned his first career top five finish with a third place standing at the Florida State Spring Break Invitational as he carded scores of 68 and 67 to finish with a seven under par score of 137 in helping the Seminoles to the team championship in the event. “Wes is a player that we are really excited about and have been since his arrival as a freshman,” said Jones. “When he puts everything together he is a tough competitor. He has to get to a consistent level and allow himself to play on an even keel in every event and in every qualifier. When he does that he will become a special golfer.” Cobb is a transfer from UCF who will battle for playing time in his first season as a Seminole.. He played well as a freshman in 2007-08 but took a redshirt year and did not play for UCF during the 2008-09 fall or spring seasons. “Kyle is a local player from Tallahassee who we recruited when he was a senior in high school,” said Jones. “It’s good to finally have him as a member of our program because he is a solid golfer. We look for him to compete and compete hard to get into the line-up and once he gets there he has the ability to make himself a fixture during the remainder of his career.” During his tenure at Florida State, Jones has become accustomed to putting freshman in situations where they can be successful. Think back to Jonas Blixt who played extensively as a freshman and won the ACC ChamSEATH pionship as a senior or to LAUER Matt Savage who earned

his way into the starting line-up as a freshman and who became the first three-time All-ACC selection in school history. In Michael Hebert and Doug Letson, Jones may have a couple of Blixt or Savage like players who will force themselves into the line-up immediately. “Michael and Doug are outstanding players who could work themselves into the line-up because of their talent,” said Jones. “Because we recruit players to play immediately regardless of their class standing we are looking forward to seeing these two players fight their way into the line-up. As a coach, I like the competition and our players are looking forward to the challenge. Our two freshman have the chance to raise our talent level quickly.” Hebert comes to Florida State as a very accomplished junior golfer who will be one of the Seminoles’ top players upon his arrival as a freshman. He was a 2008 and 2009 American Junior Golf AssociTREY tion All-American and the 2007 state JONES of Florida junior champion and led his team to two state championship titles and two third place state championship tournament finishes during his much decorated high school career. He has also played in a national stage as he advanced to sectional qualifying for the 2008 US Open with a 68 in the first round of the event. “Michael could be an impact player and will have an immediate impact

WESLEY GRAHAM

on our team,” said Jones. “I really like his potential and how he handles himself on the course. As he continues to mature and learn more about course management, he will continue to become a much better golfer.” Letson has a great feel for the game and will begin his collegiate career with the talent to quickly become a member of the Seminoles’ starting lineup. He has developed a very mature demeanor on the golf course -- one which allows him to manage his game well. “Doug is a solid player whose short game abilities allow him to be successful on many different types of courses,” said Jones. “He is a very good putter which allows him to close well on holes that BROOKS might prove to be tougher for other players. KOEPKA “The sky is the limit for both of our freshman golfers,” said Jones. Jones has continued to recruit well and has built the Seminoles into a national contender. It will be his job in 2010 to merge the talents of each one of his players into one cohesive team that will land the Florida State men’s golf near the top of the leader board in each tournament the Seminoles play this year.

Trey JONES Head Coach • 7th Season • North Alabama ‘91 DIRECTOR OF GOLF OPERATIONS

Trey Jones, the 2008 ACC Coach of the Year, has earned the reputation as one of the nation’s top coaches as he has helped develop Florida State into one of the elite programs in collegiate golf. In his seventh season as Florida State’s head men’s golf coach and director of golf operations, the Seminoles are regarded as one of the most competitive teams in the nation as evidenced by their four consecutive NCAA Championship appearances, 2008 ACC Championship and top finishes while annually playing the toughest schedules in all of college golf. Building championship teams and elevating those teams onto the national stage is nothing new to Jones who has earned four conference coach of the year awards and who has led eight of his 13 teams at the Division I level to the NCAA Tournament. His teams consistently hold prominent places in the national rankings, are adept at winning conference championships and are annually among the top producers of All-American and all-conference performers. Jones has also coached many of the top golfers in the illustrious history of the Florida State program. He coached Jonas Blixt, a two-time All-American and two-time All-ACC selection and Matt Savage, who also earned All-American honors and was a three-time All-ACC selection and is currently coaching Drew Kittleson who played in both the Master’s and US Open Championships in 2009 after finishing as the runner-up in the 2009 US Amateur Championship. “Trey Jones helped me realize my potential as a collegiate golfer and helped make all of my teammates better golfers and competitors,” said Blixt. “He believed in me as much as I believed in him throughout my career at Florida State. Coach Jones helped make me the golfer I am today and helped me reach my goals – graduating from Florida State University and becoming a professional golfer.” Jones was named the ACC Coach of the Year, led Florida

State to its first ever ACC Championship and helped the team achieve a national ranking as high as No. 7 in 2008. The Seminoles also played in the NCAA Tournament for the third consecutive season, won three team championships, had a player earn AllAmerica First Team honors for the first time since 1995 and had two players earn All-ACC recognition. Florida State has taken its rightful place among the nation’s top teams and the origins of its recent success can be traced to Jones’ arrival in Tallahassee in 2004. He is responsible for attracting nationally ranked recruiting classes as well as upgrading the Seminoles’ schedule to where it is ranked among the nation’s toughest on an annual basis. FSU plays in the nation’s most highprofile events and the most prestigious courses in the country each season. Jones is a 19-year veteran of the collegiate coaching ranks. He was the head men’s coach and Director of Golf Operations at Georgia State for eight years (1996-2003) before becoming only the fifth coach in the history of the Seminole program in 2004. Prior to his career at Georgia State, Jones was an assistant coach at Wallace State Junior College (1992-95) and his alma mater North Alabama (1991). Jones developed his teaching, coaching and recruiting philosophies as he helped mold those programs into national contenders. Jones has been named the top coach in three different conferences – the Atlantic Coast, Atlantic Sun and Trans America Athletic Conference. Jones has had the biggest impact on the Seminole program in the area of recruiting during his first six years in Tallahassee. Florida State’s recruiting class ranked as the fourth best in the nation in 2007, the fifth best in 2008, the sixth best in 2005 and among the nation’s top 15 in 2006. Jones accepted his first head coaching job at Georgia State in 1995 and immediately began to assemble one of the dominant men’s golf programs in the southeastern United States. He was responsible for the program in its entirety including recruiting, coaching, fundraising, public relations, strength and conditioning, scheduling and the team’s budget. He led the Panthers to a national ranking as high as 20th during the 2000 season, making the golf team only the second Georgia State team to earn a top-20 national ranking. In 2001, Georgia State won the Trans Atlantic Athletic Conference champions by an astonishing 41 strokes. Following the conference championship, the Panthers earned their third consecutive NCAA Regional Championship appearance.

SEMINOLE GOLF 2009-10 SEASON 2008-09 REVIEW

Under Jones’ leadership, Georgia State amassed 91 wins over SEC teams and 33 wins over ACC opponents from 1999-2000. During that period, Georgia State earned 23 victories over top 25 opponents. With Jones, the Panthers played in four NCAA Regional Championships (1999, 2000, 2001 and 2003) and the NCAA Championship in 2000. He led the Panthers to eight tournament titles and to the first three Atlantic Sun conference titles in school history and earned conference Coach of the Year honors each time (1998, 2000 and 2001).

founded the Panther Golf Club in 1998 to support both the men’s and women’s golf programs. The Panther Club became the largest booster club on the Georgia State’s campus as it raised an average of $40,000 a year during his tenure. He has done the same at Florida State as he has been the driving force in developing the Seminole Masters – an exclusive group of individuals who have committed themselves to providing the resources for excellence for FSU golf. Jones earned two varsity letters under head coach Billy Gamble during his collegiate playing career. He was a member of the Lions’ golf team in 1990 and 1991. He also earned two varsity letters in golf at Wallace State in 1987 and 1988. Jones has been an active member of the Collegiate Golf Coaches Association since 1993.

Chris MALLOY Assistant Coach • 4th Season • Ole Miss ‘01

Chris Malloy, who has helped the Seminole men’s golf team develop into one of the nations top programs, is in his fourth season as an assistant coach at Florida State. He helped coach the Seminoles to the school’s first ever golf ACC Championship in 2008 and has worked tirelessly to develop the program into a perennial top-15 program. With Malloy on the coaching staff, the Seminoles have appeared in the last three NCAA Tournaments and have produced the ACC individual champion, two All-Americans, four All-ACC selections and one ACC Rookie of the Year. The Seminoles won three tournament championships in 2008 to mark the first time since 1995 that the program has won multiple titles in a single year. Florida State’s team championship at the fall 2007 Inverness Intercollegiate was the first team title for the program since 1998. The Seminoles won the championship of the Inaugural Florida State Spring Break Invitational in 2009. Malloy worked extensively with former Seminole Jonas Blixt as he earned All-America First Team honors in 2008, All-America Second Team honors in 2007 and won the 2008 ACC individual championship. He also worked with Matt Savage – a three-time All-ACC selection, a 2007 All-America Second Team selection and the 2008 North and South Amateur medalist and currently works with Drew Kittleson – who played in both the Master’s and US Open Championships in 2009 as a current member of the FSU men’s golf team. Malloy gained valuable experience in helping develop Florida State into a perennial top-15 team. He has been the designated on-course coach for the Seminoles numerous times during his first three season as a Seminole assistant coach including during the third round of the 2007 NCAA Championship finals as Florida State won a three-team playoff and advance to the top 15 in championship play. With their win in the playoff, the Seminoles advanced to the final round of the championship. Malloy’s work with the Florida State players has led to outstanding team success in addition to numerous individual accolades. The Seminoles finished in the top five of 20 events during his first three seasons. Additionally, FSU’s team stroke average has dropped in two of the three years Malloy’s has been on the coaching staff. As a team the Seminoles averaged a 15-year low 72.77 stroke average in 2008. Malloy also achieved success at the college level as a top player at Ole Miss during his playing career. He led Ole Miss to the NCAA Championship finals in 1999 and the NCAA East Regional Championship Tournament in 2000 as a twoyear letter winner and team captain for the Rebels. Malloy began his career in intercollegiate athletics as a Corporate Account Executive for Seminole Athletics Marketing. Malloy enjoyed his best season as a collegian as he led

the Rebels to a tied for 24th place finish in the NCAA Championship Tournament in 1999. He finished the season with a career-best 74.79 stroke average and earned his best career individual finish tied for fifth at the University of Alabama Spring Invitational. Malloy’s individual finish led Ole Miss to the team championship at the Alabama Spring Invitational. Malloy earned four top-30 individual finishes and led the Rebels to four top-10 team finishes. Among those top-10 team finishes was a ninth place finish at the NCAA East Regional Championship which qualified Ole Miss for the NCAA Championship Tournament. The Warrenton, Va., native helped the Rebels to a sixth place finish in the SEC Championship and an 11th place finish in the NCAA East Regional in 2000 as he finished fourth on the team with a 75.00 stroke average. He earned a pair of top 15 individual finishes with a tied for 14th place standing at the Atlanta Intercollegiate and a tied for 15th placing at the Colorado State Intercollegiate. He led Ole Miss to a sixth place team finish at the Gator Invitational that season as he shot a career-low 68 in the first round of the event. Malloy, 32, earned his bachelor’s degree in hotel and restaurant management from Ole Miss in 2001. He was named to the Ole Miss Athletic Association Academic Honor Roll during his career. He was married to Danielle Bartlett in June of 2008.

SAVAGE PLAYS IN FOUR NCAA CHAMPIONSHIPS Senior All-American Matt Savage, became one of only a handful of players in school history to play in four NCAA regional championships during his career. Savage earned his best regional outing at the 2007 NCAA East Regional championship at the Lakeside Course at the Country Club of Georgia.

SEMINOLE GOLF 2009-10 SEASON 2008-09 REVIEW FOUR-STRAIGHT NCAA TOURNAMENT APPEARANCES Led by freshman Brooks Koepka, who carded a three-under par 68 - his third consecutive round in the 60’s - and finished in a tie for sixth place in the individual standings, the Seminoles finished in a tie for seventh place in the team standings at the NCAA Southeast Regional at the Red Tail Golf Club. The Seminoles’ appearance in the NCAA Tournament marked the first time the men’s golf program has made four consecutive NCAA appearances since the 1980, 1981, 1982 and 1983 seasons. JONES TAKES TEAMS TO NCAA CHAMPIONSHIPS Seminole head coach Trey Jones made his ninth regional championship as a head coach as he took the Seminoles to the 2009 NCAA Southeast Regional Championship. He took four of his seven teams at Georgia State to the regional championships and has taken four of his first six Florida State teams to postseason play. ON A QUEST FOR A GREEN JACKET An event unlike any other. It is golf ’s premier tournament held at Bobby Jones’ Augusta National Golf Club that has produced some of the most memorable moments in sports history. And it is where Florida State junior Drew Kittleson made his pro tournament debut on April 9 in the first round of the 2009 Masters. After finishing second in the 2008 U.S. Amateur Tournament at Pinehurst No. 2 l in August 2008, Kittleson earned a spot to play in both the Masters and 2009 U.S. Open--one of the greatest honors in Florida State golf history. The Scottsdale, Ariz. native not only became the youngest player in Florida State history to compete in the Masters, but he was also paired with some former tournament champions, such as Mark O’Meara, Phil Mickelson and Tiger Woods, in practice rounds of the tournament. FLORIDA STATE’S TOP 10 FINISHES Florida State has earned seven top 10 team finishes and each member of the Seminoles’ starting line-up earned at least two top-20 individual finishes during the 2008 fall and 2009 spring seasons. Drew Kittleson (tied for 6th/Seminole; tied for 7th/Callaway; tied for 9th/Gator) and Matt Savage (1st/Florida State Spring Break, tied for 6th/Seminole; tied for 10th/Callaway Match Play) earned a team-high three top-10 finishes. HOME-GROWN VICTORY The FSU men’s golf team played an impressive two rounds at the Seminole Golf Course to win the 2009 Florida State Spring Break Invitational. The Seminoles finished the event with an overall team-score of 26 under par (550), after All- American Matt Savage led the way with a nine under par 63- the top score

SEMINOLE GOLF 2009-10 SEASON 2008-09 REVIEW AN OVERVIEW Consistency. It is the mark of true excellence in any endeavor. However, in today’s intercollegiate athletics, competition has become so balanced and so competitive that it is virtually impossible to maintain a high level of consistency. Yet the Atlantic Coast Conference has defied the odds. Now in its 57th year of competition, the ACC has long enjoyed the reputation as one of the strongest and most competitive intercollegiate conferences in the nation. And that is not mere conjecture, the numbers support it. Since the league’s inception in 1953, ACC schools have captured four national golf titles. Clemson captured its first ever ACC and NCAA title in 2003. Wake Forest, with its league-leading 18 ACC championships, captured national titles in 1974, 1975 and 1986. North Carolina is second to the Demon Deacons with 11 ACC crowns, 10 outright. Georgia Tech has captured 11 league titles, including nine outright while Clemson has won nine league titles, eight outright. Clemson and NC State were co-champions in 1990, while in 2007, Georgia Tech shared the title with Virginia Tech. Duke has won the league championship six times while Maryland and NC State each have shared one ACC title – the Terrapins and South Carolina tied in 1964 while the Wolfpack and Clemson deadlocked in 1990. Florida State captured its first ever ACC Championship title in 2008. Wake Forest leads all league schools with 22 ACC individual champions. North Carolina is second with 13 followed by Clemson (7), Duke (6), Georgia Tech (6), NC State (6), Maryland (3), Virginia (1) and Florida State (1). In 2007, Florida State’s Jonas Blixt claimed ACC medalist honors, which marked the first time an individual from Florida State had claimed the individual title. Seven ACC golfers have captured NCAA medalist honors, with NC State’s Matt Hill capturing the latest honor in 2009. Wake Forest claims three of those honors in Curtis Strange (1974), Jay Haas (1975) and Gary Hallberg (1979). North Carolina’s John Inman captured individual honors in 1984, Clemson’s Charles Warren brought home the individual title in 1997 and Georgia Tech’s Troy Matteson in 2002. Eight of the league’s 11 golf teams took part in the NCAA Regionals a year ago and four of those teams – Georgia Tech, Duke, Wake Forest and Virginia - advanced to the NCAA Championship. Participating as individuals at the NCAAs, NC State’s Matt Hill captured the medalist honors while Clemson’s Kyle Stanley placed second. Georgia Tech tied for 10th, Duke placed 14th while Wake Forest and Virginia tied for 27th.

NCAA Compliance

FLORIDA STATE UNIVERSITY COMPLIANCE OFFICE The following information is provided by the FSU Compliance Office for prospective student-athletes, alumni and boosters. It is intended as a guideline to introduce you to some of the rules governing NCAA athletics.

• NCAA educational information • Non-athletics institutional publications (official academic, admission and student services publications and videotapes produced by the institution and are available to all students)

KEY DEFINITIONS YOU SHOULD KNOW Representatives of Athletics Interests: A representative of athletics interests, commonly called a booster, is any individual who is known (or should have been known) by a member of the institution’s athletic department that has ever: • Contributed financially to the athletics department or to its booster club. • Joined the institution’s booster club or any sport specific support group. • Provided benefits to enrolled student-athletes or their families. • Assisted in any manner in the recruitment of prospective student-athletes. • Promoted the institution’s athletics program. • Purchased season tickets. *** Once an individual is identified as a representative, the person retains that identity forever. ***

After Sept. 1 of a Prospect’s Junior Year, a Coach Could Provide: • Written correspondence, including letters and e-mails • Business Cards • Media Guide • Game programs (only on an official or unofficial visit) • Pre-enrollment information after prospect signs National Letter of Intent or has been admitted • Any other information may be provided via the institution’s web site

Prospective Student-Athlete: A prospective student-athlete “prospect” is any student who has started classes for the ninth grade regardless of his/her athletics ability and/or participation. Any student younger who receives any benefit from an institution or representatives of athletics interests immediately becomes a prospective student-athlete. In addition, student-athletes enrolled in preparatory school or two-year colleges or officially withdrawn from a fouryear institution are considered prospective student-athletes. A prospective student-athlete remains a prospect even after he or she has signed a National Letter of Intent or accepts an offer of financial aid or admissions to attend an institution. The prospect remains a prospect until he/she reports for the first day of classes for a regular term (fall or spring) or the first official day of practice, whichever occurs earlier. Contact: A contact is any face-to-face encounter between a prospect or the prospect’s parents, relatives or legal guardian(s) and an institutional staff member during which any dialogue occurs in excess of an exchange of a greeting. Evaluation: An evaluation is any off-campus activity designed to assess the prospect’s academic qualifications or athletic ability, including any visit to his/her high school (during which no contact occurs) or the observation of a prospect’s practice or competition at any site. PHONE CALLS AND LETTERS Phone calls from coaches (but not boosters) are permitted beginning July 1 before the prospect’s senior year in high school. A coach is limited to one phone call per week except that unlimited phone calls may be made: • During the five days immediately before an official visit to the university; • On the day of a coach’s off-campus contact with a prospect; or • During the time beginning with the National Letter of Intent signing date through the two days after the signing date and the day after a National Letter of Intent or scholarship agreement is signed. A Prospect of Any Age Could Receive the Following From a Coach: • Questionnaire • Camp brochure

WHO IS PERMITTED TO RECRUIT FOR FLORIDA STATE? Only Florida State coaches who have successfully completed the NCAA Recruiting Rules Examination on an annual basis may be involved in the recruitment process. Boosters may not make any recruiting contacts. This includes letters, telephone calls or face-to-face contact on or off campus with a prospect or the prospect’s parents. ALUMNI AND BOOSTERS DO’S AND DON’TS • You may forward information about prospects to the coaches. • You may have contact with a prospect regarding permissible preenrollment activities such as summer employment, provided the prospect has already signed a National Letter of Intent and the Compliance Office is aware you are making these contacts in regard to employment. • You may have a telephone conversation with a prospect only if the prospect initiates the call. Such a call may not be prearranged by an institutional staff member and you are not permitted to have a recruiting conversation, but may exhibit normal civility. You must refer any questions about our athletic programs to an athletics department staff member/coach. • You may view a prospect’s contest at your own initiative provided you do not contact the prospect or his/her parents. In addition, you may not contact a prospect’s coach, principal or counselor in an attempt to evaluate the prospect. • You may continue established family relationships with friends and neighbors. Contacts with sons and daughters of these families are permitted as long as they are not made for recruiting purposes or encouraged by Florida State University coaches. • You may not become involved in making arrangements to receive money or financial aid of any kind for a prospect or the prospect’s family and friends. • You may not make contact with a prospect and his/her parents when the prospect is on campus for an official or unofficial recruiting visit. • You may not transport, pay or arrange for payment of transportation costs for a prospect and his/her relatives or friends to visit campus (or elsewhere). • You may not pay or arrange for payment of summer camp registration fees for a prospect. • You may not provide anything to a prospect, the prospect’s family or friends without prior approval from the Compliance Office. .

Athletic Academic Support Services SERVICES AND PROGRAMS

ACADEMIC ADVISING The advisors in Athletic Academic Support Services serve as the lowerdivision advising unit for all student-athletes. The staff advises students through the Liberal Studies curriculum and degree prerequisites. The advisors work with the students in a number of areas related to the academic experience at Florida State University, but with a primary emphasis in advising and monitoring the progress toward the selected degree program, taking into consideration, all variables, which would enhance or impede each student’s progress toward the goal of graduation. STUDY HALL Professionally supervised study sessions for each athletic team are organized in order to help ensure the academic success of the studentathletes. The main focus of the study hall program is to help students develop consistent and appropriate study patterns by providing a structured setting to work on class assignments and to provide tutorial assistance before academic problems arise. Although the criteria for study hall is left to the discretion of each academic advisor, typically, most freshmen, first year transfers, and upperclassmen who have not yet achieved a satisfactory cumulative grade point average are requested to attend study hall.

TUTOR AND MENTOR PROGRAM The tutorial program is available to all student-athletes as they progress towards their ultimate goal of obtaining a college degree. Approximately, 100 tutors are hired each year, from a variety of academic departments. Every tutor is committed to providing a proactive, individualized approach in assisting student-athletes with course comprehension and study skills. The tutors are graduate level students who excel in a specific area of study. All mentors are graduate students who have outstanding academic backgrounds. Mentors are academic role models who have demonstrated the ability to teach and give guidance in areas of academic developmental skills. They are responsible for providing assistance in the development of skills such as note taking, test preparation, and communication with faculty. In essence, mentors become an extension of the academic advisor as they keep the academic performance of their studentathletes under close observation and report to the academic advisors each week.

MISSION STATEMENT

The primary mission of Florida State University’s Athletic Academic Support Services is to provide an environment that facilitates the academic success of each student-athlete. The focus is to provide a comprehensive support program integrated with the total University that will assist all student-athletes with the transition into college and provide continued support in all phases of academic and professional development, culminating with graduation, job placement or graduate school. COMPUTER LAB The Athletic Academic Support Services computer labs are located in the Moore Athletics Center and in the Learning Center on the 9th floor of the University Center. FSU has 47 PC compatible computers and several laser printers available to the student-athletes. A computer lab is available 24/7 to student-athletes with a current FSU ID card. The Athletic Academic Support Services wing is equipped with wireless internet. SUMMER BRIDGE PROGRAM Athletic Academic Support Services, in conjunction with Athletic Student Services and the University, offers incoming student-athletes a “Summer Bridge Program” to aid in the transition from high school to college and highlights many different topics that are important for student-athlete success. The program is a week-long intensive orientation that incorporates the University orientation with the athletics department orientation and continues throughout the six-week summer session. Seminars, designed to acclimate the students to the University community, are conducted weekly. Seminar topics include media training, health promotions, academic mapping requirements, the Academic Honor Policy and Student Code of Conduct as well as faculty communications and expectations. ACADEMIC HONORS AND AWARDS PROGRAM Athletic Academic Support Services is committed to recognizing the academic success of all student-athletes. The annual “Golden Torch Gala,” is an academic awards banquet that occurs each fall and is the highlight of the year. At this event, the ACC Honor Roll student-athletes, as well as the individuals with the highest GPA on their respective teams, and the men’s and women’s teams with the highest GPA are recognized. Team meetings are held each year, during which time student-athletes are notified of potential honors and awards and are encouraged to apply. Combining a strong grade point average with athletic accomplishments, community service activities, and leadership experiences make for a student-athlete capable of obtaining unlimited academic honors, awards and postgraduate opportunities.

Developed by the Florida State University Department of Athletics, the N.O.L.E.S. program represents a commitment to the total growth and development of each student-athlete. The program establishes an administrative commitment to academic and athletic excellence. Those efforts will be supported with programs and services in personal and career development service. PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT Fostering the development of personal growth is a fundamental component of the N.O.L.E.S. program. The support programs ensure that the student-athlete will be provided with opportunities to focus on personal growth areas such as value clarification, goal setting, fiscal planning, decision making and personal responsibility. Programming focuses on helping the student-athlete develop a healthy lifestyle while they are at Florida State and habits that will benefit them for life.

student-athletes impacted the lives of over 150,000 youths. LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT The Florida State University Department of Athletics is committed to developing programs of excellence that foster leadership development. The Student-Athlete Advisory Council (SAAC) has been in place in the Florida State University Athletic Department for over ten years, and consists of a fantastic group of motivated student-athletes. The SAAC consists of 42 student-athletes, at least two from every team, and they meet every two weeks to discuss issues confronting student-athletes, here at FSU, as well as in the Atlantic Coast Conference and across the nation. The SAAC at FSU has many responsibilities: they take the lead on a variety of events, starting with the New Student-Athlete Orientation, Peers Helping Athletes Transition (PHAT) Tuesdays with freshmen student-athletes, the Welcome Back Picnic and culminating with the Golden Nole Awards year ending banquet where seniors from each team are honored and student-athletes who have excelled in the area of community service are recognized.

CAREER DEVELOPMENT Preparing for life after college is a major focus of the N.O.L.E.S program. The program is designed to work in cooperation with Florida Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Career Center to acquaint students with the job search process, provide networking opportunities and ultimately assist with job placement. The program places a priority on the development of the total person, with the goal of developing individuals who will have rewarding careers and productive lifestyles after they leave Florida State. The newest addition to the Career Development program is the Senior Transition Seminar offered through the Office of Student Services. The course is offered to all senior student-athletes with exhausting eligibility and is designed to assist with resume building, networking with former student-athletes, and tips on transitioning from intercollegiate athletics into the working world. COMMUNITY SERVICE Serving the community is the focus of the Seminole Spirit program. Student-athletes are challenged to provide service to our community and individuals who are in need. With a clearly defined program of service, student-athletes are given the opportunity to develop lifelong commitment to volunteerism. Over the years, the commitment to community service has grown leaps and bounds. The FSU athletic department was recently recognized by the National Consortium for Academics and Sports for the most successful outreach and community service program in which FSU
