NEBRASKA
Since its inaugural season in 1994, Nebraska soccer has grown into one of the most respected and successful programs around the nation. Head Coach John Walker came to Nebraska in April of that year on a mission to construct national championship-caliber teams, and in 17 seasons Walker has developed a program that consistently competes among the elite in collegiate soccer. In less than two decades, Nebraska has earned 249 wins and made 10 NCAA Tournament appearances. In that time, the Huskers also won a league-best five Big 12 Tournament titles and had 45 student-athletes earn first-team All-Big 12 honors. Nebraska’s athletes consistently go on to find success at the next level of soccer as professional and national team players. In fact, three former Huskers are currently playing in the Women’s Professional Soccer league. One of the reasons Nebraska has been able to develop such a successful program is the level of dedication shown by the University. From its humble beginnings off campus at the Abbott Sports Complex, the soccer program now enjoys state-of-the-art facilities, including administrative offices, locker rooms and indoor training areas, located in the heart of campus. With a wealth of support and a history of success, Nebraska soccer expects to contend for championships in the years to come.

Coach John Walker came to Lincoln in April 1994 on a mission to construct a national championship contender in women’s soccer, and 17 seasons later, he has built Nebraska into one of the premier programs in the nation. Nebraska became the first Big Eight school to add women’s soccer as a varsity sport, and Walker was optimistic about the future of soccer in the Cornhusker state because of the University’s commitment to building a winning program. That commitment has remained strong throughout the program’s history, and in 2005 the Huskers moved into impressive facilities on the Nebraska campus. Walker’s goal when he started at NU was to have the Huskers in their first NCAA Tournament by the 1998 season. Walker not only achieved that goal, he shattered his own timeline as NU reached the postseason in 1996, before earning seven straight top-15 national finishes. His early standard of excellence resulted in 10 trips to the NCAA Tournament and eight Sweet 16 appearances. In 17 years at the helm for the Huskers, Walker has produced the 16th-best career winning percentage among active NCAA Division I women’s soccer coaches at .705 (249-98-22). He also ranks 17th all-time with his .705 winning percentage among coaches with a minimum of 10 years at the helm. Walker is the only head coach to produce more than 100 wins in fewer than eight seasons and notched his 200th career victory in the 2005 NCAA Tournament. Under Walker, the Huskers have become perennial conference and national title contenders. The Huskers have made NCAA Sweet 16 appearances in eight of the last 15 years, including two trips to the Elite Eight. They have compiled a remarkable 224-76-22 record over the last 15 seasons and won three Big 12 regular-season crowns and five Big 12 Tournament titles. NU swept both conference titles in 1996, 1999 and 2000. In 1999, Nebraska enjoyed its best season in the program’s 15-year history, running to a 22-1-2 final record, a Big 12 regular-season title and a Big 12 Tournament crown. The Huskers missed their first trip to the NCAA Women’s College Cup (semifinals) by the narrowest of margins, as Notre Dame advanced on sudden death penalty kicks, 4-3, after one of the greatest matches in NCAA Tournament history. Walker and the Huskers have also made Nebraska women’s soccer one of the hottest tickets in the nation. In 1999, the Huskers set a school single-season record and ranked among the top five teams in the nation, averaging 1,529 fans per game, including a then school-record attendance of 3,702 fans in the NCAA quarterfinals against Notre Dame. Over the past six seasons, the Huskers have averaged nearly 900 fans per home contest. In 2002, NU rewrote the single-game attendance record, when 4,830 2011 NEBRASKA SOCCER I HUSKERS.COM

fans attended the Nebraska vs. North Carolina contest to open the season. In 2004, more than 10,000 fans saw the Huskers play in their final season at the Abbott Sports Complex, including 3,620 in the home opener against the Tar Heels. In 2005, Walker and the Huskers moved on campus for the first time in school history, allowing a more convenient location for players and fans. Over the past two seasons, the Huskers have dropped just one game at the Nebraska Soccer Field and have posted an 18-1-2 record. With a proven system, an innovative coaching philosophy, a well-respected program and an ability to recruit some of the nation’s most talented players, Walker has the Huskers focused on contending for conference and national championships on an annual basis. In 1998, Nebraska overcame the loss of five senior starters, including All-Americans Kari Uppinghouse and Rebecca Hornbacher, to finish with a 17-4-1 record and claim a second Big 12 Conference Tournament title. The Huskers advanced to the NCAA Sweet 16 and finished with a final No. 10 national ranking.
Nebraska’s 1998 success followed on the heels of an 18-4-0 season in which the Huskers advanced to the Sweet 16 in the NCAA Tournament before losing at Notre Dame. The Huskers ended the 1997 season ranked No. 7 in the final NSCAA Poll.
Building from the Beginning
Walker and the Huskers built their success on a breakthrough season in 1996. Not only did Nebraska earn its first trip to the NCAA Tournament, the Huskers placed themselves among the nation’s elite by winning two tournament games and advancing to the NCAA quarterfinals. Along the way, Walker established himself as one of the finest coaches in America, earning NSCAA/Umbro National Coach-of-the-Year, NSCAA/Umbro Central Region Coach-of-the-Year and Big 12 Conference Coach-of-theYear recognition. Walker led the Huskers to a perfect regular season with a 19-0 record and the first regular-season Big 12 title.

Nebraska extended its winning streak to 21 games with two more wins at the Big 12 Conference Soccer Championships in St. Louis to capture a second conference crown. The Huskers entered the NCAA Tournament with the nation’s longest winning streak as the only unbeaten and untied team in the country. But Nebraska’s perfect ride through the 1996 regular season did more than just put wins in the record books, it put fans in the stands, establishing a devoted following of Husker faithful. Nebraska finished the season with the sixth-highest average attendance in the nation, and based on its unblemished record and outstanding fan support, earned a home bid in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. After a perfect regular season, Walker and the Huskers were not satisfied with just making it to the NCAA Tournament. They set their sights on a trip to soccer’s semifinals in Santa Clara, Calif. Nebraska proved it was a contender with a 3-2 overtime win over Minnesota in the opening round in front of a thenschool-record crowd of 1,544. The win over the Golden Gophers set up a second-round rematch with Duke at the Abbott Sports Complex. The Huskers had come from behind to defeat the thenNo. 6 Blue Devils, 3-1, in Durham, N.C., on Sept. 8, for Nebraska’s first-ever win over a ranked opponent. Although Duke came to Lincoln with a rich soccer tradition and plenty of NCAA Tournament experience, the Huskers dominated the Blue Devils from start to finish in a 3-0 win. With the victory, the Huskers earned a trip to Oregon to challenge perennial power Portland. Although the Huskers battled until the end, they could not manage a goal, losing 1-0 to the Pilots. The Huskers finished the 1996 season with a 23-1-0 record and a final No. 6 national ranking. Since posting its first top-25 win over Duke in 1996, Nebraska has made beating ranked opponents commonplace. During the past 11 seasons, Walker and the Huskers have posted 32 wins over top-25 teams, including a win over No. 18 Texas last season in Lincoln.
Success Beyond Nebraska
Walker’s Nebraska program has also proven that it can produce All-America players. In just 17 years, 11 Huskers have earned a total of 17 NSCAA All-America certificates from the National Soccer Coaches Association of America, including Morgan Marlborough in 2010. Five Huskers have captured freshman All-America accolades under Walker, including Marlborough, who earned honors from Soccer America and Top Drawer Soccer in 2009.

Walker also has helped Husker players compete at the international level. Over the past several seasons, Nebraska has boasted 23 players with national team exper ienc e, including current Huskers Molly Thomas, Jordan Jackson and Marlborough. Former NU athletes have seen success at the professional level as well. Seven Huskers were selected in the inaugural WUSA Draft in December of 2000. Nebraska’s total number of athletes selected was second behind North Carolina. Four of the first 24 players chosen in the draft were former Huskers. In 2002, Nebraska saw its highest pick ever when Breanna Boyd was drafted eighth in the first round by the defending champion Carolina Courage. Christine Latham also became an instant starter for the San Diego Spirit when she was picked up as a discovery player for the WUSA team, after bypassing the entire draft process. Walker boasted five former athletes on 2003 WUSA rosters, three of whom were named to All-Star rosters, which ranked seventh among all Division I programs. In January 2010, former Husker Carly Peetz was selected in the sixth round of the 2010 Women’s Professional Soccer Draft by the Boston Breakers. As a member of the Big 12 Conference, Walker’s teams won five of the 15 Big 12 Tournament championships with titles in 1996, 1998, 1999, 2000 and 2002. The Huskers also brought home Big 12 regular-season crowns in 1996, 1999 and 2000, and in the 15-year history of the conference, Nebraska posted a league-best 106-47-15 regular-season mark and a .631 winning percentage. Along with the team accomplishments, the Huskers were rewarded with 70 individual regular-season all-conference selections and 33 All-Big 12 Tournament awards. Former Husker Christine Latham was also the first league player to be named Big 12 Player of the Year in back-to-back seasons (2000, 2001), a feat repeated by Timko in 2004 and 2005. Timko went on to top that record the following season, earning co-Player of the Year honors with Oklahoma State’s Yolanda Odenyo, to become the first player selected as Player-of-the-Year three times.

The Lee’s Summit, Mo., native earned Big 12 Offensive Player of the Year honors again in 2010. Nebraska’s fast track to national prominence in soccer was aided by NU’s decision to become the first school in the Big Eight Conference with a women’s soccer program in 1994. Although Nebraska was ahead of other Big Eight schools, Walker started the 1994 season behind the rest of the nation in recruiting because of his late hiring. However, in his first season as the Huskers’ mentor, Walker managed to put together a collection of scholarship players and walk-ons who recorded a surprising 14-4 mark and earned credibility around the nation with a successful inaugural campaign. Walker and his staff followed their initial on-field success by compiling an excellent incoming class that included transfers Kari Uppinghouse, who became Nebraska’s first first-team All-American in 1996, and third-team All-America goalkeeper Rebecca Hornbacher. The Huskers also implemented a year-round approach to training and conditioning. This approach included a strong spring schedule, a tradition that has continued at Nebraska. In 2006, the Huskers traveled abroad to England and Scotland to face a multitude of international competition and then returned to Europe in the summer of 2011. While Walker built the Huskers, he continued to expand his coaching experience as a staff coach for the Canadian National Team. During the summer of 1999, Walker was an assistant coach for Canada’s Women’s World Cup team. He currently works with both the Under-16 National Team and the Canadian World Cup Team. Walker came to Nebraska from Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario, following achievements at the collegiate, national and international levels. Walker was named national staff coach for the Canadian Soccer Association in 1992, and the following year he was appointed an assistant coach for the Canadian World University Games team. Walker holds a Canadian “A” coaching license (highest level), a Level V certification and a USSF “A” license. Walker was a national coaching instructor for the Canadian Soccer Association and served as director of high performance for Ontario, where he supervised coaches and players at Ontario’s National and Provincial Training Center. Walker was a standout sweeper for Queen’s University from 1982 to 1985 and received bachelor’s degrees in physical education and physical therapy from Queen’s in 1987. He earned a master’s degree in coaching science from Miami of Ohio in 1988. He also is a graduate of the Canadian National Coaching Institute. The Kingston, Ontario, native is married to Mary Holmes and the couple has one daughter, Ally, and four sons, Declan, Cameron, Keegan and Liam. HUSKERS.COM I 2011 NEBRASKA SOCCER

Dan Bassett was hired as an assistant coach for the Nebraska soccer team in July 2010. In his first season as a full-time member of Head Coach John Walker’s staff, Bassett saw the Huskers post a 13-7-1 record, including a 9-1-0 record at home. A familiar face to the NU soccer program, Bassett previously spent three seasons as a volunteer coach for the Huskers (2005, 2006 and 2008). During that time,
he also coached the Bellevue West High School boys and girls squads and played two seasons for Bellevue University, helping the Bruins compile a 25-12 record. Bassett served several roles while on the Husker support staff, including alumni relations, video operations and gameday operations. “This is a position that I will put my heart and soul into,” Bassett said. “It may be cliché to say that the university has a huge tradition of academic and athletic excellence, but it is true. I am fully aware of those traditions and will aim to not only honor them, but do my best to enhance them.” A native of Bulkington, England, Bassett moved to the United States in 2004 and began his coaching career with club teams in Kansas City and Omaha. He earned an engineering degree from North Warwickshire and Hinckley College in 2002. While in England, Bassett also spent time coaching the Coventry and Birmingham women’s Centers of Excellence.

MARTY EVERDING ASSISTANT COACH 15TH SEASON QUEEN’S UNIVERSITY (1989)
Marty Everding returned to the Huskers as an interim assistant coach for the 2010 season and then moved to a permanent assistant in 2011 after spending 13 years with Nebraska from 1994 to 2006. In his previous stint with the program, Everding played a crucial role in the ascension of Nebraska’s program to national prominence. As the Huskers’ goalkeeping coach, Everding developed two of the best goalkeepers in Big 12 Conference history. In 2000, Karina LeBlanc led the Big 12 and ranked second nationally with a 0.40 goals-against average. LeBlanc went on to start in goal for the Canadian National Team and the WUSA’s Boston Breakers, and 2011 NEBRASKA SOCCER I HUSKERS.COM
followed in the footsteps of All-American Rebecca Hornbacher, who started in goal for the Huskers in 1996 and 1997. Hornbacher also played for Boston in its inaugural WUSA season, while continuing her career as a collegiate goalkeeping coach. Everding helped transform former Husker Erin Miller from a defender to an all-conference goalkeeper. In her two seasons in the net, Miller recorded 239 saves, 21 shutouts and a 0.98 goals-against-average. After proving he could do it once, Everding took on the challenge of transforming Brooke Bredenberg from a midfielder to a goalkeeper. Bredenberg had a solid 2003 spring season in goal under Everding’s tutelage, not conceding a goal to an amateur team through five contests, including 2003 national runner-up Santa Clara. Bredenberg, who is now the head coach at Wayne State, went on to post a 1.39 goals-against average in 2003 before moving back to midfielder. Katie Wright stepped in and started both of Nebraska’s NCAA Tournament games and recorded 1.5 shutouts for the season. Wright then played every minute of the 2004 season, allowing just 29 goals in 23 games for a goals-against average of 1.25. Wright also stopped 108 shots, becoming just the second player in school history to post 100 saves in a season. In 2005, Everding helped true freshman Jamie Klages start 18 games and compile a 1.19 goals-against average
while stopping 88 shots and posting six shutouts. Klages was invited to train with the U.S. Under-21 National team. Everding was a player at Queen’s from 1981 to 1983 and 1986 to 1988. He was an assistant coach at Queen’s from 1989 to 1990, before joining Walker’s Nebraska staff. Everding graduated from the Canadian National Coaching Institute and holds a Canadian Level IV coaching license as well as a USSF “B” license. A native of Kingston, Ontario, Everding graduated from Queen’s in 1989 with a bachelor’s degree in drama and education. Between coaching stints, Everding worked as a secondary school teacher.

ATHLETIC DIRECTOR
FIFTH YEAR
A Hall of Fame football coach returned to his roots on Oct. 16, 2007, to become the 13th athletic director at the University of Nebraska. Tom Osborne accepted the position at the time because, Osborne said, “Harvey Perlman asked me.” Perlman, UNL’s chancellor, asked Osborne to lead the program where he had served so productively as head football coach. Two months later, on Dec. 20, 2007, he announced that the word “interim” had been removed from Osborne’s title, and he would remain athletic director until at least July of 2010. Holder of master’s and doctorate degrees from the University of Nebraska in educational psychology, Osborne said he probably would not have considered coaching if he had not met Bob Devaney, who convinced him to become a volunteer graduate assistant on his staff. “Bob epitomized the value of loyalty, and I will always be grateful for the confidence he showed in me,” Osborne said. “Because of his leadership and empowerment as a coach and an athletic director, I was fortunate to serve 25 years as head coach.” Devaney put Osborne in charge of the offense that won two national titles and allowed him to concentrate on three areas he thought were important – a strong academic program for student-athletes, a strength and conditioning program and a more formalized program to attract walk-on players. Each area has grown into an important asset for all 23 Nebraska sports programs, which Osborne now oversees. Within months of his appointment, Osborne quietly re-established an athletic department mission based on five core values – integrity, trust, respect, teamwork and loyalty. Nebraska fans across the country and around the world have expressed confidence in Osborne’s experience, his understanding of Nebraska and his desire to elevate the program back among the nation’s elite. Since retiring from football in 1997, Osborne has found several ways to stay active in his home state. His most visible post-coaching foray came in the political arena, as he served three terms in the U.S. House of Representatives from Nebraska’s 3rd congressional district from 2000 to 2006. He also made a gubernatorial bid in 2006 before turning to academia. A native of Hastings, Neb., Osborne served as a senior lecturer at Nebraska in the College of Business Administration, teaching leadership and business ethics, in the fall of 2007. He completed the fall semester while working in the athletic department. Osborne has also worked as a consultant for local college athletic departments over the past two years. “I’ve spent the majority of my life working with the athletic department at the university and I want to do what I can at this point to continue in the pursuit of excellence that has been previously established,” Osborne said. Widely known for his leadership, integrity, honor and compassion, Osborne has poured time and effort into building a unique mentoring program within the state. The TeamMates program, founded by Tom and his wife, Nancy, in 1991, provides support and encouragement to school-aged youth with the goal of seeing children graduate from high school and pursue a post-secondary education. Osborne still actively provides leadership in the college football ranks despite being away from the sideline for a decade. He is currently a voter on the coaches poll for the Master Coaches Poll. While he may hold a key position that molds the future of Nebraska Athletics, many will always remember Osborne for his legendary service to the program as a football coach. Osborne was named Nebraska’s 25th head coach following the 1972 season and worked the sideline for 25 years, the longest tenure in school history. Under Osborne’s direction, the program achieved remarkable success, exceeding any in its rich history. The Cornhuskers mounted a 255-49-3 record under Osborne, good for a winning percentage of .836. The 255 victories are the sixth-most all-time among major college football coaches while the winning percentage ranks fifth all-time. His achievements were so highly regarded that the National Football Foundation waived its three-year waiting period so that he could be inducted into its Hall of Fame in December of 1998. He is one of only four coaches in history to have the mandatory three-year waiting period waived. Osborne’s coaching career came to a poetic end in the 1998 Orange Bowl. In his final game, the Huskers defeated No. 3 Tennessee, 42-17,
HASTINGS COLLEGE (1959)
giving him a share of a third national title in his final four seasons. The victory left Osborne as the first coach in college football history to retire as a reigning national champion, along with the nation’s best active winning percentage. Osborne guided the Huskers to back-to-back titles in 1994 and 1995, then capped his career by sharing the 1997 title with Michigan. Nebraska’s back-to-back national titles in 1994-95 made Osborne the first coach to accomplish that feat since Bear Bryant led Alabama to titles in 1978-79. Under Osborne, NU became just the second school all time and the first since Oklahoma in 1955-56 to post back-to-back perfect national championship seasons. In fact, Osborne’s last five Nebraska teams put together the best five-year run in collegiate football history with an amazing 60-3 record, including five consecutive 11-win seasons. Osborne-coached Nebraska teams captured 13 conference crowns, including six of his last seven seasons on the sideline. All 25 of his Husker teams won at least nine games and went to a bowl, while 15 won 10-or-more games. In the classroom, Osborne’s teams were just as successful as they were on the field. Under Osborne’s guidance, the Husker football program totaled 65 CoSIDA Academic All-America awards in 25 years, averaging more than two selections per season. To put Osborne’s dedication to developing complete student-athletes in perspective, he accumulated more football Academic All-Americans in his 25 years as coach than any other football program in the nation has produced in its history, as Notre Dame has produced the second-most football academic All-Americans all-time, totaling 50 selections dating back to 1952. Prior to becoming head coach, Osborne spent five seasons under Devaney, helping the Huskers win back-to-back national championships in 1970 and 1971. In 1973, Osborne succeeded Devaney, who also served as Nebraska’s Athletic Director from 1967 to 1993. Osborne and his wife, Nancy, have three adult children, Mike, Ann and Suzanne and four grandchildren.

After not having a Big Ten Soccer Tournament for the past two seasons, the conference’s championship event returns in 2011 to decide the automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament. The 2011 Big Ten Soccer Tournament will begin on Wednesday, Nov. 2 and will continue through Sunday, Nov. 6 at Lakeside Field in Evanston, Ill. Starting in 1994, host-school Wisconsin won the first conference tournament with a 3-0 win over Minnesota, while the Badgers added another tournament title in 2005. Eight programs overall have won a Big Ten Tournament title, including four teams that have won multiple crowns. Penn State is the only school with more than two tournament titles, as the Nittany Lions have won five crowns (1998, 2000, 2001, 2006, 2008). Last season, Penn State earned a share of its 13th consecutive regular-season Big Ten title, which set a record for the most consecutive women’s team titles in Big Ten history. Ohio State split the title with the Nittany Lions and won the tie-breaker to earn the league’s automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament. The Buckeyes went on to make their first appearance in the College Cup, where they lost in the NCAA semifinals to Notre Dame. As a member of the Big 12 Conference, Nebraska enjoyed tremendous success at the league tournament, capturing five titles and producing a 18-9 all-time record. Nebraska’s five Big 12 titles came in 1996, 1998, 1999, 2000 and 2002. The Huskers also claimed regular-season crowns in 1996, 1999, and 2000.

Notes: Nebraska hit the road for the 2010 season opener and fell to the New Mexico Lobos, 3-0. The Huskers and Lobos totaled 14 shots apiece, but New Mexico converted three of its seven shots on goal, including two in the second half, to drop NU to 9-6-2 all-time in season openers. Nebraska had a solid defensive effort through much of the first half until New Mexico forward Stephanie Rowe came up with the game-winning goal in the 38th minute. Rowe received a pass from forward Jordan Craig near the top of the goalie box to give the Lobos a 1-0 halftime lead. The Husker offense tallied eight shots on goal against a tough New Mexico defense that ranked 12th nationally with 13 shutouts in 2009. NU still managed to put together several offensive opportunities, but UNM goalkeeper Kelli Cornell stopped each Husker shot and finished the match with seven saves. Molly Thomas nearly gave Nebraska a lead in the 26th minute when her shot from the top of the penalty box clanged off the crossbar. Thomas tallied three shots on the day, while Morgan Marlborough led NU with four shots, including three on goal. New Mexico stretched its halftime lead in the second frame with goals from midfielder Rachel Fields (63:30) and forward Jennifer Williams (84:46).

The home-opening win improved Nebraska to 1-1-0 on the season. The Huskers used a determined team effort to pick up their first win of the season, as NU played with only 10 players for the last 68 minutes of the match. In the 21st minute, NU goalkeeper Emma Stevens received a red card for using her hands outside of the penalty box. Tara Macdonald played the rest of the game in net and helped hold the Ramblers scoreless while tallying three saves. Nebraska outshot Loyola Chicago, 20-7, including a slim 5-to-3 advantage in shots on goal. Thomas made the most of her opportunities, earning her first goal in the 52nd minute after Jordan Jackson advanced a pass through the Loyola Chicago defense to a sprinting Thomas. The junior dribbled into the penalty area and fired a low shot past Rambler goalkeeper Katie Groesch on the right side of the net. Just four minutes later, Thomas scored her second goal of the game when she found herself alone in the short corner and lofted a perfect left-footed shot over Groesch into the far upper corner of the net.

Nebraska 4, IUPUI 0 Sept. 6, Lincoln, Neb., Attendance: 739
Shots: NU 23, LMU 6 Saves: LMU 9 (Ippolito 9), NU 4 (Macdonald 4) Notes: Strong defense for the second straight match and timely goals from All-Big 12 selections Morgan Marlborough and Molly Thomas gave Nebraska a 2-0 win over Loyola Maryland. Marlborough accounted for the game-winning goal in the 24th minute on a free kick from 25 yards out. The sophomore found a gap on the left side of the Greyhound wall that snuck inside the post and out of the reach of LMU goalkeeper Danielle Ippolito. The Husker defense was stellar throughout the day in compiling its second shutout in a row. Loyola Maryland was held to zero shots in the first half and tallied only six in the match to Nebraska’s 23. Senior goalkeeper Tara Macdonald (2-0-0) saved all four Greyhound shots on goal in the second half. Despite dominating every offensive category, Nebraska was clinging to a one-goal lead as the match went into the final 20 minutes. At that time, Thomas picked up a rebound off a Marlborough shot in the penalty box. Marlborough nearly converted her second goal of the match on a headto-head opportunity with the goalkeeper that she fired off Ippolito’s hands. Thomas calmly knocked in the insurance goal to give Nebraska a 2-0 lead. Nebraska 3, Indiana 1 Sept. 4, Bloomington, Ind., Attendance: 504 Goals by period Nebraska Indiana

Shots: NU 23, IUPUI 6 Saves: IUPUI 6 (Haseley 6), NU 3 (Stevens 1; Macdonald, 1; Team 1) Notes: Jordan Jackson scored two first-half goals to lead Nebraska to its fourth straight win in a 4-0 shutout over IUPUI. The Huskers played in front of a Labor Day crowd of 739 fans, the largest attendance at the Nebraska Soccer Field since Oct. 3, 2008. Jackson put the Huskers on top in the 16th minute via a free kick from 35 yards out that was perfectly placed into the upper left corner of the net. Just four minutes later, Molly Thomas sent a pass to the front of the net from the left side of the box, where Jackson was moving toward Thomas and flicked the ball with her right foot into the right side of the net. Leading 2-0 at the intermission, Nebraska continued its offensive pressure immediately in the second half with two goals in the first nine minutes. Morgan Marlborough scored her fourth goal of the season in the 46th minute when she dribbled through the Jaguar defense on the left side of the penalty box and sent a low shot inside the right post to give NU a 3-0 lead. In the 54th minute, Colleen Goetzmann scored her first goal of the season on a header near the left post. Goetzmann’s goal resulted from a corner kick by Jackson after she sent the ball to Jaclyn White, who then entered a pass into the goalie box.

Notes: Morgan Marlborough scored in each half after Molly Thomas put the Huskers on top early to propel Nebraska to a 3-1 road victory at Indiana. Nebraska earned its first road win of the year despite being outshot by the Hoosiers, 19-10. The Huskers made better use of their opportunities, beginning in the fifth minute when Thomas scored her team-leading fourth goal of the season to give NU a 1-0 lead. The Omaha, Neb., native received a pass from Marlborough on the left side of the penalty box and took a left-footed shot from 12 yards out that was tipped by IU goalkeeper Shannon Flower and then bounced off the right post into the net. The Huskers only took five shots on goal as a team, while Indiana had 11. Marlborough had a five-point day that was highlighted by a pair of crucial goals in the 27th and 45th minutes. At 27:27, Jordan Jackson dribbled through several Hoosier defenders in the upper third and advanced a pass to Marlborough on the right side of the box, who then shot over Flower from eight yards out for a 2-0 NU advantage. The two-goal first-half cushion was nearly cut in half with 23 seconds remaining, but defender Brittany Goosen came up with a critical save one-yard in front of the goal line to stop Carly Samp’s would-be goal. Although the Hoosiers nearly made it a 2-1 match, Nebraska wasted no time out of the halftime break as Marlborough gave the Huskers

An explosive Nebraska offense jumped on an Arizona defense that had given up 2.75 goals per game to take a 2-0 halftime lead on goals from Jordan Jackson and Jaclyn White. Jackson put the Huskers up 1-0 in the 11th minute on a cross to the far post from Morgan Marlborough. A pair of seniors teamed up for Nebraska’s second goal of the match in the 22nd minute when Jaclyn White scored for the third time in her career. White received a long ball from Anna White and beat Arizona goalkeeper Ashley Jett to tap in her third career goal, while Anna White picked up her second career assist. In only her 25th collegiate game, Morgan Marlborough scored her 26th career goal to enter Nebraska’s all-time top 10 in a tie with Jenny Benson (1996-2000) for the 10th spot.

Shots: ASU 22, NU 14 Saves: NU 6 (Macdonald 6), ASU 4 (Gillmore 4) Notes: Nebraska’s bid for a sixth straight victory was halted by No. 25 Arizona State, as the Huskers fell to the Sun Devils, 5-0, in Tempe, Ariz. Nebraska ended the Sun Devil Desert Classic with a 1-1-0 record after defeating Arizona. Arizona State forward Karin Volpe turned in a hat trick and began the Sun Devil scoring early by giving her team the eventual game-winning goal in the ninth minute. Two more first-half goals from Alexandra Elston and Miah Mollay gave ASU a three-goal halftime lead. Volpe added two more goals in a four-minute span in the second half (64:40, 68:32), and the Huskers were unable to cut into the increasing ASU lead. Goalkeeper Tara Macdonald played the first 45 minutes and suffered her first loss of the season, dropping her to 5-1-0 on the year. Macdonald and the NU defense had held four of its previous five opponents scoreless before meeting the Sun Devils. Freshman Emma Stevens was in the net for the second half. Offensively, junior Molly Thomas led Nebraska with five of its 14 shots. The Huskers put four of those on goal but were shut out for the second time on the season.

a quick 1-0 lead in the second minute. Marlborough took advantage of a free kick into the box from junior Katie Goetzmann and battled the Titan defense to free herself for a left-footed shot to the left post from 15 yards out. The goal was Marlborough’s 27th of her career, tying her with Kori Saunders (1999-2002) for the No. 9 spot on the all-time goal chart. Redshirt freshman goalkeeper Emma Stevens picked up her first career win by turning in a solid performance in the net. The Corona, Calif., native only gave up the own goal while tallying one save.

Each of Bartels’ goals came in the second half and broke a 1-1 tie at the half to carry the Huskers to their sixth win in the past seven matches. A first-team all-state selection at Omaha Skutt High School, Bartels found a familiar scoring role against the Titans to net her first collegiate points. The redshirt freshman scored the game-winner in the 53rd minute off a corner kick from Jackson that ended up at Bartels’ feet 10 yards in front of the net. The Omaha native then fired a leftfooted shot through traffic that was out of the reach of Cal State Fullerton goalkeeper Jessica Change near the right post. Clinging to a 2-1 lead, Bartels separated NU from the Titans 17 minutes later when Jackson advanced the ball to a sprinting Bartels in the upper third. Bartels outran the Titan defense and was head-to-head with Change. Bartels fired a low shot at the far post for her second goal of the match. While Bartels accounted for the final two goals, sophomore sensation Morgan Marlborough looked to keep pace as the Big 12’s scoring leader by giving Nebraska

The Huskers’ 7-2-0 record marked the best ninegame start by NU in nearly a decade, as the 2001 squad began the year 8-1-0. Jackson scored her fourth and fifth goals of the season, accounting for the game-winner in the 65th minute off a corner kick from Blair Slapper. The junior sent a perfect ball over the Hawkeye defense to the far post, and Jackson elevated to head in her second goal of the match. The aggressive header bounced in front of the goal line and was just out of the reach of Iowa goalkeeper Emily Moran as it went upward to catch the bottom of the cross bar. A native of Overland Park, Kan., Jackson’s gamewinning goal came two minutes after the Hawkeyes tied the game at 62:58 on a goal from Jade Grimm. After Jackson gave Nebraska a 2-1 lead with 25 minutes remaining, Iowa’s Alex Melin nearly answered less than a minute later, but her line drive shot from 15 yards out was knocked over the cross bar by NU goalkeeper Emma Stevens to preserve the Husker lead. Nebraska took a 1-0 lead just before halftime (44:07) on Jackson’s first goal of the day. With each team struggling to find an offensive rhythm in wet field conditions, Nebraska capitalized on its limited opportunities as senior Jaclyn White sent a pass to junior Katie Goetzmann on the left side of the goalie box, who then found Jackson five yards in front of the goal for a clean shot. Leading 2-1 in the game’s final minutes, junior Alexa Cardona created Nebraska’s third goal as she was fouled in the box while attempting to dribble through the Iowa defense. Sophomore Morgan Marlborough converted the penalty kick to solidify the Husker win. Nebraska 2, #18 Texas 1 Sept. 25, Lincoln, Neb, Attendance: 466 Goals by period Texas Nebraska

minute span in the second half as Nebraska knocked off No. 18 Texas, 2-1. The previous six meetings between the Huskers and Longhorns had been decided by one goal and the 2010 matchup was no different, as both teams fought to a scoreless halftime with only seven total shots (Nebraska 4, Texas 3). The offense turned up on both ends in the second half, and senior Anna White sparked Nebraska’s first goal when she was fouled in the 58th minute as she worked her way toward the corner. Marlborough took the ensuing free kick from a wide angle 25 yards away and shot over the Texas wall to sneak the ball inside the far post for the first goal of the match. Although Nebraska was clicking on offense to create several goal opportunities, the Longhorns answered quickly when freshman Leah Fortune unleashed a 20-yard shot from just outside the top of the penalty box into the upper right corner of the net. Entering the contest, Texas had not given up more than one goal in any game on the season behind sophomore goalkeeper Alexa Gaul, who finished the game with seven saves. Nebraska broke that streak less than a minute after UT’s game-tying goal as Marlborough was taken down inside the box and nailed the eventual game-winning goal on a penalty kick in the 61st minute. It was Marlborough’s Big 12-leading ninth goal of the season and 30th of her career to move into a seventh-place tie with former Husker Nikki Baker (2002-04) on the school’s all-time chart. #6 Texas A&M 2, Nebraska 1 Sept. 26, Lincoln, Neb., Attendance: 597 Goals by period Texas A&M Nebraska

The match ended Nebraska’s home unbeaten streak that had lasted 18 matches (16-0-2) dating back to Oct. 17, 2008. The Huskers fell behind early in the 11th minute when Alyssa Mautz scored from 30 yards out to put the Aggies ahead 1-0 and give NU its first home deficit of the season. Marlborough was quick to answer less than three minutes later when she was fouled just beyond the penalty box. The Lee’s Summit, Mo., native then sent a 20-yard free kick over the Texas A&M wall and just inside the right post to tie the contest at 1-1. The Husker defense was outstanding throughout the match as Nebraska played the final 49 minutes with only 10 players. In the 41st minute, NU starting goalkeeper Emma Stevens collided with Mautz outside the penalty box and was whistled for a red card. With senior Tara Macdonald sidelined due to a back injury, the Huskers entered Jaclyn White in between the posts. Primarily a forward as a senior, White had not played goalkeeper during her prep or collegiate career. The Long Beach, Calf., native turned in a solid performance by tallying three saves and giving up only one goal on Young’s 45-yard free kick. White nearly saved the eventual game-winning goal as she deflected the shot into the bottom of the cross bar before the ball bounced off the back of her head and into the net. Despite playing shorthanded, Texas A&M only outshot Nebraska 16-13 overall with a slim 8-7 shots on goal advantage.

Notes: Nebraska attempted 23 shots but could only put one in the back of the net as the Huskers dropped a 2-1 contest at Baylor. Sophomore Morgan Marlborough scored her Big 12-leading 11th goal of the season and continued a streak of five straight games with at least one goal. Baylor midfielder Christine Clark notched the gamewinning goal with 22 minutes remaining, just nine minutes after Marlborough had tied the contest at one apiece. Clark picked up a loose ball in the goalie box and scored from four yards out following a 13-minute shot drought. During that span, Marlborough brought NU back from a 1-0 halftime deficit to tie the game in the 59th minute on her 32nd career goal. Nebraska was the more aggressive offensive team throughout and pressured quickly in the second half to shoot five times and gain three corner kicks in the opening 15 minutes. Baylor would respond with Clark’s game-winning goal in the 68th minute, although junior Katie Goetzmann then hit the cross bar and NU attempted six shots as it unsuccessfully tried to even the score a second time. The Huskers tied their season high with 23 shots, but came up against a Baylor defense that had given up only nine goals, the third-best total in the Big 12 at the time.

Sophomore Jordan Jackson provided NU with a strong attack in the offensive showdown by scoring two secondhalf goals and adding a first-half assist to complete a fivepoint day. Jackson’s second goal of the match resulted from a breakaway in the 86th minute and put the Huskers on top 4-2 with just under five minutes remaining. Nebraska’s first Big 12 road win did not come easy. Texas Tech’s Jessica Fuston tallied a penalty kick goal two minutes later (87:36), before Mallory Yacullo scored the improbable game-tying goal with one second left on the clock (89:89) to force overtime. Despite relinquishing a pair of two-goal leads and playing in its first extra-period game of the season, Nebraska maintained composure following the Red Raider comeback.

post. Romero was positioned inside the six-yard box for the rebound and headed in the game-winning goal past Texas Tech goalkeeper Colleen Pitts. Leading 2-1 at the half, Marlborough, Jackson and junior Molly Thomas teamed up to give Nebraska a 3-1 lead in the 51st minute. Jackson’s sixth goal of the year occurred after Marlborough’s corner kick to Thomas was crossed to Jackson at the near post. Texas Tech’s Leanne Mihelich responded in the 56th minute to close the margin to 3-2 before Jackson’s seventh goal of the season at 85:20 gave NU its late 4-2 advantage. Jackson accounted for five points on the day and reached the 20-point plateau on the season with seven goals and a Big 12-leading six assists. Senior Colleen Goetzmann was the beneficiary of an earlier corner kick involving Jackson and Marlborough in the 26th minute, as Goetzmann picked up a rebound from Marlborough to score her second goal of the season and put NU on top 2-0 early in the match.

Sophomore Morgan Marlborough scored in each half and added an assist to increase her Big 12-leading totals to 14 goals and 34 points, while also tying Christine Latham’s 11-year old school record of seven consecutive games with at least one goal. Redshirt freshman goalkeeper Emma Stevens turned in a strong performance in the net by recording a career-high seven saves against eight shots on goal from the Cyclones. The Huskers produced a season-high 25 shots, including 16 in the second half, after both teams had slow offensive starts. Marlborough, who entered the game ranked No. 2 nationally in points, began the scoring in the 28th minute shortly after a NU corner kick. Marlborough received a pass from freshman defender Ari Romero on the right side of the penalty box and dribbled into the short corner before drilling a six-yard shot over the hands of ISU goalkeeper Maddie Jobe. Just four minutes later, Nebraska cashed in on a corner kick as Marlborough sent the ball beyond the far post to redshirt freshman Stacy Bartels. The Omaha native leaped just high enough to send a header back at the frame off Jobe’s hands near the cross bar for Bartels’ third goal of the season. The Huskers pressured immediately in the second half with six shots in the first 15 minutes. Still holding a 2-1 lead, Marlborough gave the Huskers separation in the 74th minute after junior defender Katie Goetzmann advanced the ball to sophomore midfielder Jordan Jackson on the left sideline. Jackson dribbled into the penalty box and centered a pass to Marlborough, who beat an ISU defender one-onone and fired into the right side of the net for her 14th goal of the season. In the 78th minute, NU solidified the victory when Goetzmann sent a pass across midfield to Jackson, who handled the rest on her own to fight her way into penalty box and score from 10 yards out.

Nebraska gave up a pair of Missouri goals in the first 11 minutes to find itself in a 2-0 hole. The Huskers came out on fire in the second half and scored their first goal at 47:02 when Morgan Marlborough broke free down the right sideline. The forward centered a pass to junior Alexa Cardona, who flipped the ball behind her with her right foot past Gwin to account for her first goal of the season. Ten minutes later, Nebraska came up with another prime opportunity as Marlborough took a pass from Jackson on the left side and dribbled to the near post. She then delivered a perfectly timed pass to senior midfielder Colleen Goetzmann in front of the net for a one-touch shot to tie the game at 2-2. Riding the momentum of the game-tying goal, NU continued its offensive pressure to come up with the game-winner in the 62nd minute. Jackson received a long, crossing pass from junior defender Katie Goetzmann on the right side of the penalty box and sent a one-touch, sliding shot to the left post to complete the comeback. Marlborough had another remarkable game of her own as she scored for a school-record eighth straight match with an unassisted goal in the 76th minute to put NU ahead 4-2. The Lee’s Summit, Mo., native used a slide tackle to obtain possession on the right sideline and then immediately dribbled into the penalty box and sent a low shot to the left post for her 15th goal of the season.

Macdonald turned in her sixth career shutout to preserve the draw, as Nebraska was held scoreless for the first time in conference play. The Austin, Texas native was very effective down the stretch with seven saves in the final 30 minutes of the game, including four critical stops in the overtime periods. Her record-breaking 13-save performance broke the previous NU single-game best of 12 set by Karina LeBlanc (1998) and Erin Miller (2002).

Nebraska attempted six shots on goal, including three from sophomore Morgan Marlborough, who saw her school record of eight consecutive games with a goal come to an end. Marlborough and the Huskers took 13 shots in the second half, but were unable to put any past OU goalkeeper Kelsey Devonshire.

Notes: Nebraska answered the first two goals from No. 5 Oklahoma State and had the game tied 2-2 with 25 minutes remaining, but the Cowgirls scored twice to spoil the Huskers’ upset bid in a 4-2 match in Stillwater, Okla. Sophomore Morgan Marlborough and senior Jaclyn White scored the NU goals in the 15th and 63rd minutes. Nebraska fell behind early when Whitney Wernimont gave OSU a 1-0 lead less than seven minutes into the game (6:41). Marlborough responded at 14:55 on a cross from senior Colleen Goetzmann from seven yards out. The Lee’s Summit, Mo., native made the most of few offensive opportunities as she was held to three shots by a tough Cowgirl defense that had given up only nine goals all season. Nebraska became only the third team in 2010 to score two goals against Oklahoma State. Following Marlborough’s goal, OSU’s Katie Richardson picked up a rebound on a Krista Lopez shot in the box and scored from five yards away to give the Cowgirls a 2-1 halftime lead. In the 63rd minute, Nebraska put the pressure on the nation’s fifth-ranked team with White’s goal from six yards away, her second of the season. With under 25 minutes remaining, Oklahoma State produced back-to-back goals from Taylor Mathews and Megan Marchesano in a 13-minute span (66:20, 78:36) to hold off the Huskers.
Notes: After a scoreless first half, Nebraska gave up a backto-back goals to drop a 2-1 match at Colorado. Nebraska outshot Colorado, 13-9, including 8-5 in the second half, but the Buffs cashed in their opportunities in the 57th and 61st minutes. Colorado scored the first goal at 57:34 when Taryn Vitacca sent a cross into the top of the box, where Amy Barczuk had an open chance with senior goalkeeper Tara Macdonald. Barczuk shot into the top left corner of the net for the first goal of the game. Less than four minutes later, Erin Bricker broke free 1v1 down the left sideline and dribbled into the box for a six-yard shot at the near post to put CU up 2-0. Nebraska had a chance for a comeback as senior Jaclyn White cut the deficit in half with her third goal of the season in the 63rd minute. Shortly after a corner kick, sophomore Morgan Marlborough lofted a pass to the far post where White’s shot from three yards out deflected off a CU defender and trickled into the net.

The Huskers moved on to the semifinals for the first time since 2005. On a windy and rainy day at Blossom Soccer Stadium, Nebraska took a 3-1 halftime lead with first half goals by sophomore All-Big 12 selections Jordan Jackson and Morgan Marlborough, in addition to senior Jaclyn White. Nebraska did not release pressure after the intermission, as freshman Stacy Bartels scored less than seven minutes into the second half to account for the final 4-1 margin. The Huskers outshot Missouri 22-13 and had 12 shots
on goal, the highest total in a regulation game all season (14 SOG in 5-4 overtime win at Texas Tech). In the 22nd minute, Jackson took a long ball from Stacy Bartels down the left side and outran the Tiger defense with only the goalkeeper to beat. She switched directions to free herself as Paula Pritzen made a diving effort, before Jackson calmly sent in her 11th goal of the season. Four minutes later, Marlborough received a throw-in from Molly Thomas and went to the top of the penalty box before rocketing a low shot inside the right post to give NU a 2-0 lead. Nebraska’s first two goal contributors - Marlborough and Jackson - were each named to the 2010 All-Big 12 First Team on Monday. Marlborough had a Big 12-leading 17 goals and 12 assists in 2010. After a Missouri goal in the 33rd minute, Nebraska grabbed a critical two-goal lead before halftime. Marlborough dropped off a corner kick to freshman Ari Romero, who passed to Blair Slapper just in front of the 18yard line. Slapper found White in traffic on the left side, but the senior spun around her defender and sent a shot inside the left post past a diving Pritzen, for White’s fourth goal of the year. Nebraska did not have the strong wind advantage in the second half, but that did not stop the Huskers from all but putting the match away in the 52nd minute. Marlborough dribbled the right end line to create an offensive opportunity but could not find a clean shot. After Colleen Goetzmann’s shot was smothered the ball trickled to Bartels for a sevenyard shot to give NU a 4-1 lead. It was Bartels’ fourth goal of the season.

It marked the first time in 2010 that the Huskers lost a match after leading at halftime as NU was previously 9-0.

DEFENDER/FORWARD LONG
BEACH, CALIF.
BISHOP MONTGOMERY FOUR LETTERS
Career Highlights First-Team Academic All-Big 12 (2009, 2010) Eight-Time Big 12 Commissioner's Honor Roll (Fall 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010; Spring 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011) 2010 (Senior) Jaclyn White saved her best year for 2010, as she tied for fourth on the team with 10 points by tallying four goals and two assists. White was one of the key reserves off the Huskers’ bench and appeared in all 21 games, while also earning three starts in early September. White scored her first goal of the season in Nebraska’s 3-0 shutout of Arizona on Sept. 10, while also notching goals against Oklahoma State, Colorado and Missouri. Her first-half goal against the Tigers gave NU a 3-1 lead and boosted the Huskers to their first Big 12 Tournament win since 2005. A strong utility player, White played goalkeeper for 49 minutes against No. 6 Texas A&M. The senior was superb between the posts, stopping three Aggie shots and only allowing one goal despite no previous collegiate experience at the position. 2009 (Junior) White worked her way into the NU rotation to see increased playing time as a junior, appearing in 16-of-20 games for the Huskers. She had a career-best day against South Dakota on Sept. 18, when she scored on a penalty kick and added
an assist to total three points in Nebraska's 9-0 win. White also had an assist against Green Bay to finish the season with four points. All three shots taken in 2009 were on goal. 2008 (Sophomore) White appeared in nine games during the 2008 season, helping Nebraska to a 4-5 record in games she appeared. White contributed in Husker wins over UAB, Oakland, Texas Tech and Iowa State. 2007 (Freshman) After battling an early season knee injury, White worked her way into the lineup in NU's seventh contest of the year. She notched just three shots in her first five appearances, but exploded for six shots against Lamar on Oct. 12, including four on goal, and her first career goal. Her performance earned the Long Beach, Calif., native her first career start the following Sunday against Texas Tech. She notched two more shots on goal against the Red Raiders and went on to finish the season with 18 shots, directing nine on goal. White appeared in 12 total games for NU.
27 A talented athlete, White also competed in cross country, track and basketball and was named Bishop Montgomery's 2007 cross country MVP.

White continued to excel in the postseason, scoring an additional six goals in five games and playing a part with either a goal or an assist in all but one of the goals that led Bishop to a second-place finish. Her stellar performance earned White first-team Del Rey League and first-team all-area honors.

INDIVIDUAL HONORS & AWARDS NSCA A All-Americans Although the Nebraska soccer program is still young compared with the other powers in women's collegiate soccer, the Huskers have already earned 17 All-America awards from the National Soccer Coaches Association of America in the past 15 seasons. Midfielder Kari Uppinghouse became Nebraska's first first-team AllAmerican in 1996. Uppinghouse provided a dominant physical presence in the midfield while leading the Huskers to their first NCAA Tournament and a 23-game winning streak as a junior in 1996. Two other Huskers, Lindsay Eddleman – who became Nebraska's first freshman to earn All-America honors – and goalkeeper Rebecca Hornbacher, joined Uppinghouse as Morgan Marlborough, F All-Americans in 1996. In 1998, three Huskers earned All-America honors, including Sharolta Second Team, 2010 Nonen, who became the first Nebraska player to become a two-time AllAmerican. Isabelle Morneau and Kim Engesser also added the first honors of their careers. In 1999, Morneau claimed her second straight second-team NSCAA award, while Nonen became the first Husker to be a three-time All-American.

BEYOND NEBRASKA Huskers in the World Cup
Beginning in 1991, the best women's soccer players in the world have battled for the Women's World Cup every four years in front of hundreds of thousands of soccer fans in stadiums across the globe. Canada is one of 16 teams that qualified for World Cup competition in 1999, 2003, 2007 and 2011 thanks in large part to former Huskers filling the Canadian roster. Husker Head Coach John Walker made his debut with the Canadian World Cup team as an assistant coach in 1999. He was joined on that team by five of his former NU athletes. In 2003, seven former and future Huskers made the 20-player roster. The Husker-heavy squad played to the semifinal match, where it was defeated by Sweden, putting it up against the United States in the consolation finals where it lost 3-1. Four Huskers earned roster spots in 2007, while Karina LeBlanc and Brittany Timko returned to the squad in 2011. In all, nine former Huskers have played on women’s soccer’s grandest stage in the Women’s World Cup.

Brittany Timko and Karina LeBlanc returned to the 2011 World Cup as part of Canada’s National Team. The Canadians were put in Group A with France, Nigeria and host-team, Germany. Canada opened with a 2-1 loss to Germany and was then shutout by France, 4-0. The team’s final match with Nigeria was scoreless until the 73rd minute when Perpetua Nkwocha scored the only goal of the game to give Nigeria a 1-0 win.
2007 Women's World Cup
Four former NU greats made repeat appearances on the 2007 Canadian National Team. Tanya Dennis saw the most game action, as she appeared in three matches, while Brittany Timko and Amy Walsh each played in one game. Karina LeBlanc rounded out the Huskers to make the squad. Canada failed to advance past pool play, losing 2-1 to Norway to open the World Cup, before rebounding with a 4-0 win over Ghana. Canada scored just 37 seconds into its third match, but Australia rebounded to tie the game at two. The tie provided Australia the one point it needed to advance into the quarterfinals and edge out Canada.

2003 Women's World Cup
Former Huskers Brittany Timko, Tanya Dennis and Sasha Andrews all saw action on the pitch for Canada in its fourth-place finish in the 2003 FIFA Women’s World Cup, the Canadian’s best finish in history. Timko played all 540 minutes in six contests of the World Cup and notched one assist in the tournament. Dennis played 450 minutes in the back in the first five games before suffering a concussion. Former Husker All-American Christine Latham was responsible for three of Canada’s 10 goals during the tournament, including two goals in a 3-0 win over Argentina. Making repeat appearances on the Canada World Cup squad in 2003 were All-America defenders Sharolta Nonen and Isabelle Morneau, and All-America goalkeeper Karina LeBlanc. All-American Breanna Boyd made the original roster, but did not compete because of an injury.

All-America defenders Sharolta Nonen and Isabelle Morneau, All-Big 12 midfielder Amy Walsh and All-Big 12 defender Tanya Franck earned spots in Canada's starting lineup, while All-American Karina LeBlanc played a key role as a reserve on a talented Canadian squad. In addition to the Huskers on the field, Nebraska Head Coach John Walker represented the Huskers on the sideline as an assistant coach with the Canadian National Team.
Nebraska Draftees
Huskers in the Pros
With stellar collegiate careers behind them, several Huskers chose to continue their playing days at the professional level. Eleven former Nebraska soccer players were drafted into the Women’s United Soccer Association (WUSA), an eight-team league that ran from 2000 to 2003, while three former Huskers play in Women’s Professional Soccer (WPS), a seven-team league that started in the spring of 2009. NU is one of six schools to have at least two former players drafted in the WPS, and only seven programs have more players in the league. “We had 11 former Nebraska players in the Women’s United Soccer Association (WUSA), so it is great to see the tradition of former Huskers playing professional soccer continued in the new WPS,” Nebraska Head Coach John Walker said. “[LeBlanc and Latham] are talented players and have shown, with their national team and previous professional playing experience, they will succeed in the WPS.”

COMPLIANCE GUIDELINES FOR FANS The University of Nebraska Athletic Department takes great pride in abiding by the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) and the Big Ten Conference rules and guidelines that govern Division I competition. For the benefit of the many alumni, fans and booster club members who are so active in supporting and assisting the Huskers throughout the year, we would like to remind everyone of a few definitions and rules that apply to all athletic representatives and boosters. NCAA PRINCIPLES Institutional Control It is the responsibility of the University of Nebraska to control its intercollegiate athletic program in compliance with the rules and regulations of the NCAA. Responsibility The University of Nebraska’s responsibility for the conduct of its program includes responsibility for the actions of its staff members and for the actions of any other individual, booster or organization engaged in activities promoting the athletic interests of the institution. Compliance The University of Nebraska must monitor its program to assure compliance and to identify and report to the NCAA instances in which compliance has not been achieved. An institution found to have violated NCAA rules is subject to disciplinary and corrective actions as determined by the NCAA.
Question and Answers for Fans, Boosters, Alumni and Representatives of Athletic Interests DEFINITIONS Q: What is a booster? A: Someone who belongs to a University of Nebraska athletic booster club; promotes or makes financial donations to the athletic department or a specific Husker team; assists in the recruitment of prospective student-athletes; employs, gives benefits to, or provides services to a student-athlete, a prospective student-athlete or the relative/friends of either.

In addition, a student who has not started classes for the ninth grade becomes a prospective student-athlete if the institution or a Nebraska booster provides the individual or the individual’s relatives or friends with any financial assistance or benefits that the institution does not provide to prospective students in general. A good rule of thumb is to treat ALL STUDENTS as prospects. Q: What is a Student-Athlete?

A student-athlete may not conduct personal sport camps or promote, market, advertise or endorse a commercial business or product. Only benefits that are authorized by NCAA legislation shall be provided to and accepted by a student-athlete. It is not permissible for a student-athlete to receive a benefit that is the result of a “special” arrangement by an institutional employee, booster, employer or fan. EMPLOYMENT, NCAA BYLAW 12 Q: What are non-permissible benefits? A: Free or reduced-fee housing/rent including the use of vacation or seasonal homes; free or reduced-fee meals; loans or cash advances in pay or salary; tuition costs or school supply expenses; gifts or presents of any type regardless of the occasion or purpose; use of telephone for long distance or use of telephone cards and cell phones; free use of any motor vehicle, boat or recreational vehicle; free use of services (i.e., automobile repair, hair care, laundry, copying, faxing, etc.); free or reduced-fee memberships at golf courses, health clubs, etc. (This list is not exhaustive.

BIG TEN CONFERENCE Formed more than 115 years ago, the Big Ten Conference is an association of world-class academic institutions with shared values and goals. Since its inception in 1896, the pursuit and attainment of academic excellence has been the priority for every member institution. However, maintaining the conference’s status as one of the preeminent athletic conference’s in the country also endures as an important component of the Big Ten student-athlete experience. Recognized as one of intercollegiate sports’ most successful undertakings, the Big Ten strives for success from its student-athletes not only on the field and in the classroom, but around the world as well.
Honoring Legends. Building Leaders. The mission of the Big Ten Conference has always been to excel athletically without compromising the priority our member institutions assign to their academic standards and to their commitment to student academic success. We seek to celebrate the many accomplishments of Big Ten student-athletes while continuously reinforcing each of our member institutions’ high academic standards. Striking that important balance between academics and athletics is integral to the Big Ten’s identity, and that philosophy led to the genesis of the new football division names. Both names link directly to the Big Ten mission. James E. Delany Commissioner
Academics All Big Ten Universities have been granted Tier One Status by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, a distinction awarded to just over 100 universities in the country. The Big Ten leads all conferences with the highest number of ranked graduate school programs among the top 25 according to U.S. News and World Report in 2011. The Big Ten ranks first with 23 top-25 programs in the fields of law, medical (research and primary care), business and engineering.
Successful Programs During the 2010-11 season, the Big Ten claimed six team national championships, including titles for Northwestern women’s lacrosse, Ohio State synchronized swimming and men’s volleyball, Penn State women’s volleyball and wrestling and Wisconsin women’s ice hockey. The Big Ten led all conferences with national titles in 13 different NCAA-sponsored championships from 2001-02 to 2010-11. Over that time period, the Big Ten produced championships in cross country, fencing, field hockey, golf, gymnastics, ice hockey, lacrosse, soccer, softball, tennis, track and field, volleyball and wrestling. 118
Student-Athlete Opportunities Big Ten universities provide over $120 million in direct financial aid to more than 9,500 men and women student-athletes who compete for 25 Big Ten championships, 12 for men and 13 for women. Conference institutions sponsor 298 teams. Other than the Ivy League, the Big Ten has the most broad-based athletic programs in the United States.

Television Exposure The Big Ten’s media agreements with CBS Sports, ABC/ESPN, FOX Sports and the Big Ten Network (BTN) provide the conference with its greatest television exposure ever. Over 900 Big Ten events are produced and distributed nationally on an annual basis, more than any other conference. In 2006, the Big Ten created the first national conference-owned television network, the BTN. It launched on Aug. 30, 2007, and now is in its fifth year of operation. It is available to approximately 75 million homes nationally, and appears in 19 of the top 20 national media markets.
Attendance Big Ten fans are some of the nation’s most supportive, with more than 8.9 million patrons attending conference home contests during the 2010-11 seasons for football, men’s and women’s basketball and volleyball alone.
2011 Big Ten Soccer Tournament After not having a Big Ten Soccer Tournament for the past two seasons, the conference’s championship event returns in 2011 to decide the automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament. The 2011 Big Ten Soccer Tournament will begin on Wednesday, Nov. 2 and will continue through Sunday, Nov. 6 at Lakeside Field in Evanston, Ill. Staring in 1994, host-school Wisconsin won the first conference tournament with a 3-0 win over Minnesota, while the Badgers added another tournament title in 2005. Eight programs overall have won a tournament title, including four teams that have won multiple crowns. Penn State is the only school with more than two tournament titles, as the Nittany Lions have won five crowns (1998, 2000, 2001, 2006, 2008). Last season, Penn State earned a share of its 13th consecutive regular-season Big Ten title, which set a record for the most consecutive women’s team titles in Big Ten history. Ohio State split the title with the Nittany Lions and won the tie-breaker to earn the league’s automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament. The Buckeyes went on to make their first appearance in the College Cup, where they lost in the NCAA semifinals to Notre Dame.
