ACADEMIC SUCCESS

Rankin M. Smith, Sr. Student-Athlete Academic Center In the fall of 2006, the University of Georgia accepted yet another stellar class of freshmen. 2006 UGA Freshman - 1,228 Average SAT - 3.76 Average High School GPA - 98 percent of in-state freshmen earned the HOPE Scholarship Rankin M. Smith

A

s the University of Georgia’s academic curriculum has become much more rigorous, the need for an extensive learning center, complete with adequate computer facilities and tutorial services, is necessary for ongoing academic success of UGA student-athletes. Dedicated in November, 2002, the new $7.2 million Rankin M. Smith, Sr. Student-Athlete Academic Center provides Georgia student-athletes with the most modern and impressive center in college athletics. The 30,000 square-foot center includes computer labs, tutorial rooms, conference centers, counselors’ offices, lecture hall, student lounge and banquet area among other things. It is named for the late Rankin M. Smith, UGA graduate and former owner of the Atlanta Falcons, and made possible by a gift from members of the Smith family.

ACADEMIC SUCCESS

Preparation For Success

T

he academic life of Georgia volleyball players is important and is a major focus in the overall experience of student-athletes at UGA. The academic atmosphere is one which encourages learning, growth in personal and career goals, and assisting others in becoming the best they can be.

Maria Taylor points out something to teammate Anjelica Partridge in the Rankin Smith computer lab.

Graduation is the focus of Georgia’s student-athletes as they prepare for life after college — and after volleyball.

CAMPUS LIFE

East Campus Village

T

he most dynamic part of the University in recent years has been east campus. The Ramsey

Student Center, named the country’s best college student activities center by Sports Illustrated and also where the Bulldogs play their home matches, is the hub of east campus. East campus now features a new series of dormitories and a dining hall that are home to UGA volleyball student-athletes. The newly-completed $102-million dollar dorms hold up to 1,200 students in two- and four-bedroom apartments with private baths. Each student has a private bedroom. Rooms in the new halls are fully furnished with amenities including a double bed, dresser, desk and chair, night stand, living room seating, table and chairs, microwave, refrigerator, kitchen sink, phone service, cable TV and data connections to the university. The new halls include all the typical services found in other on-campus housing, such as a 24hour service desk, convenient laundry facilities, mail service, vending machines, and meeting and study areas. East Campus Village dorms provide the best in living and dining for Georgia’s volleyball studentathletes. It’s all part of a continuing effort to assure that at the University of Georgia, being first-class is a way of life.

THE UNIVERSITY

The Legacy of Uga In the last 100 years of intercollegiate athletics, Georgia’s Uga has established himself as the nation’s most well-known mascot. Owned by the Frank W. “Sonny” Seiler family of Savannah, Ga., since Uga I first graced the campus in 1956, each of the Uga mascots is awarded a varsity letter in the form of a plaque, identical to those presented to all Georgia athletes. As determined and published by the Pittsburgh Press, Georgia is the only major college that actually buries its mascots within the confines of the stadium. Epitaphs to the dogs are in-

scribed in bronze, and before each home game flowers are placed on their graves. For the past 20 years, Uga’s jerseys have been custommade at the beginning of each season from the same material used for the players’ jerseys. Uga also has been defined by his spiked collar, a symbol of the position which he holds. Uga’s on-field home is a permanent air conditioned doghouse located next to the cheerleaders’ platform, providing comfort in the heat of August and September.

Uga I

Uga IV

The Uga line began with Uga I, born Hood’s Ole Dan. Uga I was given to Cecelia Seiler by a friend, Frank Heard of Columbus. The practice of having Uga wear a red jersey on the sideline at games began during his reign, which lasted from 1956-67.

Uga IV, born Seiler’s Uga Four, appeared at the Heisman Trophy banquet with Herschel Walker in 1982, the first mascot ever invited to the ceremony. Following his reign from 198189, Uga IV was declared “Dog of the Decade” by Vince Dooley in 1991.

Uga II

Uga V

Uga II, born Ole Dan’s Uga, took over at Homecoming, 1966. As he was led to midfield at Sanford Stadium, the student body erupted in a cheer that was picked up by the entire stadium, ‘‘Damn Good Dog!’’ His reign lasted until 1972.

Born Uga IV’s Magillicuddy II and reigning from 199099, Uga V appeared on the cover of Sports Illustrated, which proclaimed him the nation’s best college mascot. Uga V also appeared in Clint Eastwood’s “Midnight In The Garden Of Good And Evil.”

Uga III Uga III, born Seiler’s Uga Three, was present for Georgia football’s finest moment as Herschel Walker guided the Bulldogs to the 1980 national championship. Uga III reigned from 1973-80, retiring on the 100th football game of his career.

6 • GEORGIA VOLLEYBALL

Uga VI The current Uga, born Uga V’s Watchagot Loran, began his tenure in 1999. Uga VI has been featured in an Emmywinning episode of Turner South’s Liars and Legends and as part of a college football segment on NBC Nightly News.

STRENGTH

AND

CONDITIONING

Developing Champions . . . Behind The Scences Strength and Conditioning

T

he success of Georgia volleyball depends not only on inseason, on-field performance, but also on the year-round development of strength and conditioning skills. With top-flight personnel as well as unbeatable facilities, Georgia has the ability to give one-on-one attention to players and help them reach their potential as athletes and volleyball players. Strength training, supervised by Mike Schweigert, pictured to the right, is a combination of weight-training and sport-specific exercises. The volleyball team has use of the 4,000 square-foot Butts-Mehre weight room, which is also used by the Bulldog football team, and the Stegeman Coliseum weight room. The strength training program is designed to increase strength and joint stability. Joel McCartney’s squad also visits the sand pits, located next to Georgia’s track, for preseason training and conditioning.

“Every coaching change presents challenges within a program. A new coach’s style will influence what we do and how do it. The team has done a fantastic job of getting on board with Coach McCartney and his vision and is working hard to reach the goals he has developed for this team.” - Mike Schweigert,

Georgia’s strength and conditioning trainer for volleyball

ATHLETIC TRAINING

Sports Medicine

T

he goal of the sports medicine team is two-fold: the prevention and care of injuries. Benjamin Franklin once said, “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” This concept is just as important today in sports medicine as it was over 200 years ago. Prevention of injuries is accomplished through pre-participation physical exams, preventative maintenance rehab programs, taping, bracing and padding and education. When injuries do occur, the role of the sports medicine team is to promptly evaluate, diagnose and provide proper care for those injuries. The goal in the event of an injury is to return the athlete to her previous performance level as quickly, and as safely, as possible. But when an athlete is injured, his or her best interests are the primary focus of the sports medicine team.

All-state in both basketball and volleyball at Centennial High School (Roswell, Ga.), Maria Taylor decided during her sophomore year to tackle both sports for Georgia during the 2006-07 school year. Not only did Taylor rank second in the Southeastern Conference with 4.52 kills per game, but she also played in 22 games for the Lady Bulldog basketball team, helping them to advance to the NCAA Sweet Sixteen. Following the 2005 volleyball season, Taylor, fresh off earning SEC All-Freshman honors, joined the USA Volleyball Select Team and traveled to Argentina to square off with the Argentina National Team and the Junior National Team during the early part of the summer.

PRE-SEASON Q & A

2007 PREVIEW

Q & A WITH HEAD COACH JOEL MCCARTNEY What led you to accept the position of Head Coach for the Bulldog volleyball program? “I have a tremendous opportunity at Georgia to lead a volleyball program capable of becoming nationally competitive and potentially one of the elite programs in the country. To bring that potential to fruition would fulfill a lifetime dream for me personally. The second thing is that Georgia fans are as passionate as you will find anywhere in the nation. The Bulldog faithful is so recognizable not only on campus and in the Athens community, but throughout the state of Georgia and beyond.” What is your coaching philosophy? “The absolute most important aspect to my life beyond faith and family is the Bulldog volleyball program. I want to be able to give every part of myself to building up the potential of everyone involved. I want to ensure each student-athlete has a great academic experience which will prepare them for a lifetime of possibility. Finally, I want to recruit the very best student-athletes and help them build character by teaching accountability and responsibility through the competitive experiences within our program.” What do you look for in a recruit? “Georgia has a tradition of tough academics that will ensure a quality education and a meaningful degree. Because we place such an emphasis on being accountable and responsible, the program attracts student-athletes who have already been successful in the classroom. However, what is most important to me is how much potential a student-athlete has and how willing they are in growing that potential to the very highest level of achievement. Overall, we are looking for good citizens with exceptional potential. We want our athletes to respect themselves, the individuals in our program and the people of their community.” What is your program outlook in your first season as head coach for the Bulldogs? “This truly will be a transition year for the Bulldogs and we anticipate many changes on and off the court. It is difficult to know how our program will face the challenges of an extremely tough (Southeastern Conference) schedule however, there is no doubt we have the right player personnel to create a very positive and necessary change for Georgia volleyball. We believe our program will dramatically improve as the season progresses and although the Bulldogs have struggled the past two years in the SEC, we have placed that record behind us and feel prepared to move onto a greater and more competitive place. Over the course of this spring and summer, our athletes have become more physical and focused which leads to a stronger and more confident group. We will be prepared to challenge every program in the conference to our very best ability”

18 • GEORGIA VOLLEYBALL

How important is Georgia’s five-match homestand during the middle of the season? “The greatest benefit to any extended homestand in the middle of a season is the needed physical and emotional rest it will provide. We feel it could serve as a springboard for the remaining half of our season and look forward to using it as a benchmark as to what we would be able to accomplish to that point in the year. On a personal note, I am eager to meet our Bulldog fans and look forward to leading our program to the place they long for Georgia volleyball to be.” How do you feel about the pair of setters (senior Chelsea Young, junior Mara Martin) on this year’s team? “We are fortunate to have two exceptional setters in our program in Mara and Chelsea. That will be one of the most interesting battles of the preseason camp. Each is unique with their individual qualities, but ultimately it will come down to who can get the offense up and running at the most efficient level and more importantly, who can get their team to win in the head-to-head competition.” With senior leader Brooke Burlingame anchoring the Libero/defensive specialist position and a trio of underclassmen (sophomores Katie Winschel and Sam Lum, freshman Kelsey Burkett) battling for playing time, what kind of shape are the Bulldogs in at that position? “We certainly have some defensive player personnel options this season and it might be a situation where we use several athletes to fulfill the defensive roles. Ultimately the athlete in our Libero position will be the best passer in our servereceive system and the player who can lift the team’s level of intensity throughout a match.” Junior Brooke Peugh led the Bulldogs in total blocks in 2006 and in addition to the return of junior Anjelica Partridge, three freshmen (Lindsay Gehan, Britta Buethe, Valentina Gonzalez) will be middle hitters for Georgia in 2007. What are your thoughts on this position? “It’s difficult to know at this stage how the middle position will shake out, but I would imagine Brooke Peugh will lead this young group. She has done a nice job of working on her game this spring and summer and I would count on her to be in the lineup for us at the beginning of our season. The remaining position is up for grabs and although we are not sure who that person will be now, it certainly will be a talented individual from the group competing for it.” The Bulldogs head into their 2007 campaign with a stable full of outside hitters. Junior Maria Taylor, who was second in the SEC last season in kills per game and also played on the Lady Bulldog basketball team in the winter, will be leading seniors Renee Johnson and Alexis Morgan and four freshmen (Simone May - redshirt, Erika Clark, Britta Buethe, Lindsay Gehan) this fall. Do you think this group can lead Georgia in 2007? “We have plenty of options for the left and right pin positions this season. I can speak to the importance of having Maria on the floor somewhere, but what I can’t do is map it all out prior to the beginning of preseason camp. The competition for each of these three positions will most likely drive the level of our play up closer to where it needs to be.”


PRESEASON NOTEBOOK

THE SEC SENDS A RECORD-BREAKING SEVEN TEAMS TO THE NCAA TOURNEY

Seven teams from the Southeastern Conference advanced to the 2006 NCAA Tournament, which broke the league record of six teams set in 2005. Florida made the biggest impact out of the SEC schools after advancing to the Sweet Sixteen with wins over Florida A&M and Arizona State. On the opposite side of the bracket, Kentucky topped an Ohio team during the first round that recorded 28 wins during the regular season. In addition, Alabama, LSU, Arkansas, Mississippi and Tennessee also earned spots in the 64-team field during the record-breaking season for the league. In the final AVCA poll of the 2006 season, Florida finished at the No. 10 spot and LSU was 19th.

MCCARTNEY PREPARES FOR THE SEC Joel McCartney joins Georgia after spending the last six seasons as the head coach at Winthrop University (Rock Hill, S.C.). In addition to five straight Big South Conference championships from 2002-06, McCartney also led the Eagles to the NCAA Tournament for five seasons in a row. Following McCartney’s final three years with Winthrop, the Eagles had amassed a 93-13 record for a .877 winning percentage and were 14-0 in the conference in 2006. While McCartney had become used to facing the likes of Radford, Liberty and Coastal Carolina in the Big South, his teams will now be battling SEC competition on a weekly basis. But Winthrop, both while McCartney was there and before his tenure as head coach, has experienced success against the SEC teams. Since Winthrop’s first year of volleyball in 1973, the Eagles have won 23 matches against SEC teams, including a 20-19 series edge over South Carolina. During McCartney’s only duel with an SEC team in 2006, his Winthrop team downed the Bulldogs 3-0 during Georgia’s final match of the season.

FOUR SENIORS ANCHOR 2007 BULLDOGS After having only one senior in 2006 (outside hitter Simona Speed), Georgia features four players who will be bidding Bulldog volleyball farewell after the 2007 campaign.

FIRST-YEAR SUCCESS

Joel McCartney begins his inaugural season as the Bulldogs’ head coach in 2007. McCartney led Winthrop University to five straight NCAA Tournament appearances as well as five Big South titles in a row before arriving in Athens. Here’s a look at how Georgia finished up previous seasons under first-year coaches: Year Record Coach Post-Season 1978 17-19 SID FELDMAN NONE The Bulldogs rolled to a six-match winning streak before losing five straight to end their first season. 1989 29-4/7-1 JIM IAMS NCAA 2ND RD.

Georgia knocked off South Carolina and Auburn in back-toback matches during the latter half of the Bulldogs’ schedule.

Gonzales, a 6-foot-1 middle hitter, comes to Georgia from Monterrey, Mexico, where she was a four-year starter at PrepaTEC and was named the best middle blocker and MVP at the 2006 CONADEIP Junior National Championships. Gonzales was also a participant on Mexico’s 2006 Senior National Team, the starting middle blocker for Mexico’s 2006 Junior National Team and was a member of the 2006 NORCECA Continental Junior Women’s Volleyball Championships. Buethe, 6-foot-2 middle/outside hitter, will be joining Georgia after growing up in Bohl-Iggelheim, Germany. Buethe represented the German Volleyball Federation DVV at the two-on-two U-19 FIVB Beach World Championships in Bermuda in September 2006 and finished third overall with her partner. Also representing her country at both the Youth and Junior national levels, Buethe was also a member of the TSV Speyer club team and suited up for the Sinsheim Juniors Team.

CLARK HOPING TO FOLLOW IN FOOTSTEPS BURLINGAME(S) SET FOR BANNER SEASON(S)

On top of shooting for her third straight ESPN The Magazine Academic All-District selection this season, Brooke Burlingame will also be attempting to break into Georgia’s record books in 2007. Burlingame has totaled 1,145 digs in her career after she racked up 448 digs last season as a junior libero. She is now only 90 digs short of overtaking Luresa Forsythe (2000-03) for the No. 5 spot in the record books. A second member of the Burlingame family is planning to join her sister in Athens this fall. Caroline Burlingame, who also attended Louise S. McGehee High School in New Orleans, La., will be taking the field for Georgia’s soccer team during the 2007 fall season.

BULLDOGS WELCOME INTERNATIONAL FLAVOR

The Bulldogs will feature four players from the state of Georgia and 10 other team members from the United States on their 2007 roster. But a pair of players - Valentina Gonzales and Britta Buethe - will be traveling from much farther destinations to suit up in red and black in 2007.

20 • GEORGIA VOLLEYBALL

Erika Clark is one of Georgia’s five freshmen joining the squad in 2007. Unlike a majority of the other first-year players beginning their collegiate volleyball careers, Clark comes to Athens after being in the home of former Major League Baseball standout Jack Clark, who was a four-time All-Star after clubbing 340 career home runs.

BEHIND THE SCENES HELP FOR THE BULLDOGS

Although he does not suit up in a Georgia uniform on fall evenings and afternoons, Mike Schweigert, as well as many other members of the UGA support staff, plays a major role for the Bulldogs each season. Schweigert takes care of the team’s physical preparations as the strength and conditioning coach. Schweigert’s early-morning sessions of weight-lifting, running and agility exercises are instrumental as the Bulldogs work to improve their endurance for Mike Schweigert their four-month season.

11TH-YEAR HEAD COACH, FIRST Joel McCartney was named the new head coach of the University of Georgia volleyball program in December 2006. McCartney, the fifth head coach at Georgia since the program’s inception in 1978, arrived in Athens with a career 282 wins in just 382 matches coached, making him one of the nation’s winningest active collegiate coaches. He accepted the reigns at Georgia after leading Winthrop University to a 167-49 record in six years, including a 34-3 campaign in 2006 and a fifth straight appearance in the NCAA Tournament. Boasting a winning percentage of .773 while at his former university in South Carolina, McCartney’s Eagles won five consecutive Big South Conference Championships in his tenure with the Winthrop program. McCartney has been involved in coaching volleyball since 1984 with experience as an assistant at the Division I level and as a head coach at the NAIA level. In addition to his collegiate coaching experience, McCartney has helped develop some of the nation’s top young volleyball talent as a coach and clinician for the USA National Development and Collegiate Volleyball Camps for over 20 years.

During his stint as the Nebraska Tornados Head Coach, McCartney served as the Head Coach at Bellevue University (1996-2000). He led the NAIA program to a 115-51 overall record, recruited and coached several academic and athletic All-Americans and brought the program to national prominence.

The Nation’s 15th-Winningest Coach Arrives In Athens To Lead The Bulldogs Starting his head coaching journey in Nebraska at Bellevue University, Joel McCartney has built a resume that any collegiate coach would envy. A .738 winning percentage, 282 career wins and six straight NCAA Tournament appearances during his time at Bellevue and Winthrop University (Rock Hill, S.C.), McCartney currently stands at the No. 15 spot for his winning percentage compared to the other active NCAA Division I women’s volleyball coaches. McCartney’s sixth and final season at Winthrop in 2006 was arguably his most successful. Using the leadership of only three seniors, the Eagles exploded for 34 wins and just three losses. In addition to capturing their sixth Big South Conference championship, McCartney also led his team to the NCAA Division I Tournament, where the Eagles faced the University of Northern Iowa in the first round. Despite his team falling to the Panthers 3-1, McCartney continued to develop Winthrop, which has an enrollment of less than 7,000, into one of the nation’s toughest competitors. Since arriving in Athens in December 2006, McCartney has hired a well-respected and energetic pair of assistant coaches (Chad Callihan and Jennifer Gandolph) and has begun to gain the interest of some of the country’s top high school volleyball talent. McCartney now has his sights set on earning his 300th head coaching win and returning Georgia’s volleyball program to the NCAA Tournament.

ASSISTANT COACH, FIRST Chris Callihan joined Georgia’s volleyball program as an assistant coach in May 2007. Callihan comes to the Bulldogs after being the head coach at Appalachian State University for four seasons. While in Boone, N.C., Callihan produced the school’s first volleyball All-American, backto-back Southern Conference regular season championships and two SoCon Tournament championship match appearances. Callihan has posted a 120-76 (.612) career record in six seasons as a head coach. At Appalachian State, Callihan posted an 88-45 (.662) overall mark and was 57-13 (.814) in Southern Conference matches. During his final season with Appalachian State, Callihan led the Mountaineers to a 23-10 overall record and a 15-3 mark in the SoCon, including a trip to the conference tournament semifinals. Callihan was named the seventh head coach at Appalachian State in 2003. After a 2-10 start in his first season at the helm, the Mountaineers rebounded to win 14 of their final 21 matches to finish with a 16-17 overall record, 13-5 Southern Conference mark and the league’s North Division title. Capping off Callihan’s first season at ASU, his squad also won its first SoCon Tournament match in six years and Katherine Dean became the first Mountaineer since 2000 to garner firstteam all-SoCon honors, while junior Amber Mangrum collected second-team accolades. Prior to his arrival in Boone, Callihan spent the 2001 and ’02 seasons as the head coach at Radford University, compiling a 32-31 overall record. In 2001, his first year as head coach, he led RU to a 24-7 record and the Big South Conference regularseason championship.

As an assistant coach, Callihan helped the Highlanders to two more BSC championships and a berth in the 2000 NCAA Tournament. In all, Radford averaged nearly 20 wins and 11 league victories per season in Callihan’s four years with the program. Before making the jump to the collegiate level, Callihan spent three seasons as the head coach at Radford High School in Radford, Va. During his stint at Radford High, he led the squad to its first regional appearance in 13 years and earned District Coach of the Year accolades. Callihan’s first experience as a head coach came during his four years of service in the United States Air Force, as he mentored the Yokota Air Base women’s volleyball team in Japan. The squad was made up of former NCAA Division I athletes. Callihan and his wife, Jess, have two sons, Caleb (6) and Macoy (2).

JENNIFER ENNIFER GANDOLPH ANDOLPH ASSISTANT COACH, FIRST Jennifer Gandolph was hired as one of Georgia’s volleyball assistant coaches in July 2007. Gandolph comes to the Bulldogs after being an assistant coach at the University of New Orleans for one season. After UNO’s 2005 campaign was cancelled because of Hurricane Katrina, the Privateers bounced back in 2006 to have one of the best seasons in school history and come within one win of capturing the division title, which has never been done at UNO. The Privateers finished with a 17-6 record in 2006, including an 11-3 mark against non-conference opponents.

ENDOWMENTS ENSURE FUTURE OF GEORGIA ATHLETICS The Athletic Scholarship Endowment Program was instituted to allow supporters of the University of Georgia Athletic Association to invest in the educational opportunities of UGA student-athletes. The program is vital to the future of Georgia Athletics by providing the longterm solution of keeping pace with escalating expenses. A gift to establish a scholarship provides income towards funding a scholarship each year and permanently memorializes the donor or any individual in whose honor the scholarship is named. A full scholarship is endowed through a gift of $150,000. The volleyball program at Georgia has three named volleyball scholarship endowments. Leon and Vickie Farmer (pictured left), of Athens, Ga., endowed the first volleyball scholarship to benefit a student-athlete who is pursuing a degree at the University and represents the University on and off the court in a respectable manner. The Michael A. Kahn family, of Charlotte, N.C. (pictured right), has endowed two volleyball scholarships to show their support for Georgia’s overall athletic program. For more information on the Scholarship Endowment Program or other giving opportunities, please contact the UGA Development Office at 706-542-9220.

2006 REVIEW

2006 Season Review The Georgia volleyball team started its 2006 season with a 3-1 win over the University of Alabama-Birmingham at the Georgia Invite in Athens, but the Bulldogs struggled with growing pains for most of the program’s 29th campaign. Featuring five freshmen and four sophomores, the Bulldogs wrapped up their ‘06 campaign with a 6-25 overall record and 2-18 Southeastern Conference record and developed the foundation for Georgia’s program in the future. Freshman Josefine Ehmke, who was voted as the SEC Freshman of the Week during Week 7, joined four other freshmen and four sophomores, including Brooke Peugh who was the team’s leading blocker (106 total blocks), on the Bulldogs roster. In addition, Georgia featured only one senior - Simona Speed - in its lineup. Speed, an Aurora, Co., native, led by example during her fourth and final season and completed her career with one of the most outstanding performances of her career. Although young, several Bulldogs ended up the season near the top of the list in SEC matches. Sophomore Maria Taylor, who now has 822 career kills, finished the year at the No. 2 spot in the conference in kills with an average of 4.82 per game. Junior Brooke Burlingame, who tied for the secondmost digs in a match (36) in the SEC, finished sixth in the league with an average of 4.39 digs per game. In addition, junior setter Chelsea Young was near the top of the SEC in assists (8.26 per game) after only earning significant playing time midway through the 2006 season. The Bulldogs experienced several highlights during the 2006 season. After opening the year with a victory over the Blazers at the Georgia Invitational, the Bulldogs finished second at their tournament with a 3-0 victory over Coastal Carolina. Leading the way for Georgia was sophomore Maria Taylor, who racked up 10 double-doubles in ‘06, Peugh and

Maria Taylor (7) and Anjelica Partridge (2) freshman setter Nikki Hawkins, who were all named to the Georgia Invitational All-Tournament team by coaches of the participating teams at the tournament. Speed, who was a co-captain alongside Burlingame, picked up where her teammates left off during Georgia’s second tourney of the year. Speed exploded for a career-high 15 kills and 11 digs and a hitting percentage of .406 against in-state

rival Georgia Tech at the Georgia Tech Invitational on Sept. 1 and was named to the All-Tournament team. Speed’s finale with the Bulldogs came against Winthrop on Nov. 24 and the 5-foot-10 outside hitter registered her third double-double of the season with 14 kills, 10 digs and four total blocks. After starting her career in 2003, Speed completed her career at Georgia with 483 kills, 443 digs and 111 total blocks. Georgia won a pair of SEC matches in a conference that had a record-breaking seven teams advance to the 2006 NCAA Tournament. One of those wins came on the road against Auburn on Oct. 20. Led by Taylor’s 25 kills and 16 digs, the Bulldogs knocked off the Tigers 3-1 (30-28, 24-30, 30-22, 30-17). Also during that match, Young finished one assist shy of her career high with 47 and Ehmke supplied the Bulldogs with six total blocks. After the final match of the season had been played on Nov. 24, Taylor topped Georgia with 484 kills and Burlingame, who has now Renee Johnson notched 1,145 digs in her career and is only 90 short of breaking into the school’s top-five list, had 448 digs for the Bulldogs. Also, Peugh led her teammates with 106 kills and Hawkins, who only played in 64 games during her freshman season, had the most assists (565) with Young in second (508). Adding to the list of Georgia’s 2006 accolades was Burlingame’s second straight selection to the ESPN The Magazine’s Third-Team Academic All-District III. Burlingame, who was on the 2004 and 2005 SEC Freshman Academic honor roll, has a 3.84 GPA in accounting at UGA. Former Georgia head coach Steffi Legall also wrapped up her career as a Bulldog at the end of the 2006 season. Legall, who joined Georgia’s staff in 2002 as an assistant coach and then as an associate head coach under Mary Buzcek, finished the season with a 6-25 overall record and a 2-18 record in the SEC. In 2005, Legall completed her first season as head coach with a record of 10-18, 5-11 SEC after the Bulldogs had earned a trip to the NCAA Tournament in 2004. When the 2007 NCAA Tournament was complete, two teams that the Bulldogs squared off against - Florida and Kentucky - advanced to the Sweet Sixteen and the second round, respectively. In addition, UCLA, who Georgia battled early in the 2006 season, won four games during the postseason and advanced to the Final Four.

2006 SEC REVIEW

SEC Experiences Unprecedented Success In 2007 Year after year, the Southeastern Conference shows why it is considered to be one of the premier volleyball conferences in the nation. In the decade of the 1990s, the SEC made stellar contributions in volleyball. The conference has sent at least two SEC teams to the NCAA Tournament in every season the last 17 years. The SEC has had a team reach the Final Four seven of the 10 seasons in the ‘90s with the league having a team advance to the regional final nine of those 10 seasons. SEC fans in 2006 witnessed a record-breaking seven teams advance to the NCAA Tournament. In addition to Florida, who finished the season with 30 wins and advanced to the Sweet Sixteen, Tennessee, Mississippi, Arkansas, Kentucky, Alabama and LSU all got a chance to compete in the postseason. Although falling to California 3-1 in the first round of the NCAA Tournament, LSU was able to rack up 26 wins and Kentucky edged an Ohio team that had already tallied 28 wins 3-2 in the opening round. Also, Ole Miss made school history while advancing to its first trip to the national championships and finished with 19 wins. Along with the popularity growth throughout the country, women’s volleyball has also grown in the SEC. A benchmark in that growth came in 1995 when SEC volleyball was first broadcasted on SEC-TV (FOX Sports Net South, FOX Sports Net Southwest and Sunshine Network) on a tape-delay basis. For the past nine seasons the coverage has grown, especially in the last six years, to live telecasts of several regular season matches and the SEC Tournament championship match. SEC volleyball will continue to enjoy the live coverage on SEC-TV to almost 22 million subscribers in the conference’s nine-state region. Notes • The 2006 season marked the 17th consecutive season in which the SEC has placed at least two teams in the NCAA Tournament. • Ten out of 11 SEC teams recorded at least 13 wins in 2006, with five posting 19+ wins. • Three players were named AVCA All-American (five were Honorable Mention All-Americans) and 12 players were named to the AVCA Division I All-District Team or were Honorable Mention in 2005.

GEORGIA HISTORY

BULLDOGS TUNED UP FOR 30TH SEASON Proving themselves as a national factor year after year is nothing new for the Lady Bulldogs. Georgia has enjoyed tremendous success since its first varsity season in 1978. Twice in the early years the Georgia team won over 40 matches: 46-17 in ‘81 and 41-12 in ‘82. In addition, the Bulldogs won the ‘85 and ‘86 Southeastern Conference titles after being led by super setter Jenny McDowell. The Bulldogs featured five freshmen, four sophomores and only one senior during the 2006 season. Following up her All-SEC Freshman honor in 2005, sophomore Maria Taylor dominated the net and finished second in the league with 4.52 kills per game. Defensively, junior Brooke Burlingame ended the year with 448 digs (sixth in the SEC) and opens the 2007 season only 90 digs short of breaking into Georgia’s all-time top-five list. In 2004, Georgia returned to the NCAA Tournament behind the All-American Oquendo. Seven other NCAA Tournament appearances highlight the Georgia history, 1995, 1994, 1993, 1992, 1991, 1986 and 1985. In 1989 and 1990, Georgia was selected for the Women’s National Volleyball Invitational Tournament. In the first 15 years, Georgia won over 70 percent of its matches and was undefeated against rival Georgia Tech. Joel McCartney, who guided Winthrop to five NCAA Tournaments, is only the program’s fifth head coach. Both Sid Feldman and Jim Iams led Georgia’s squad for 11 years during their respective tenures. While Mary Buczek led the program from 2000-2004, Steffi Legall was the head coach during the 2005 and 2006 seasons. Feldman led the Lady Bulldogs to their only two SEC Championships (1985-86), while Iams was responsible for guiding Georgia to the NCAAs for five straight years from 1991-95. Individually, Lady Bulldog Priscilla Pacheco earned the program’s first first-team all-America status in 1993, while teammate Nikki Nicholson made second team. Georgia’s all-time defensive leader, Shelley Gross, was a third-team All-American in 1986 and Alexandra Oquendo joined that list in 2004 with another third-team honor. Eleven Georgia players have been named All-South Region: Dianne Rohde, Jenny McDowell, Kelli Ogden, Christa Faris, Jill Moore, Christie Lord, Jodi Kruse, Pacheco, Nicholson, Oquendo and Hadli Anstine. Equally important, Georgia boasts four athletes who earned Academic All-America honors: Moore (1989-90-91), Krise (1992-93), Nicholson (1994-95) and Cassie Brill (1998). That academic success continues in the recent years as nine players on the 2003 roster were named to the SEC Honor Roll – more than any other team in the league.

Bulldogs Crowned SEC Champions Nov. 24, 1985 - Following a 1984 season that saw the Bulldogs advance to the Southeastern Conference semifinals, Georgia answered with an even more impressive year under Sid Feldman in ‘85. Winning 15 of their first 16 games, the Bulldogs claimed the SEC title and finished with a record of 37-7 overall and 5-1 in the conference. The Bulldogs cruised into the SEC Tournament having won 16 of their last 18 games and earned a first-round bye. After downing Kentucky 3-0 to open its tourney action, Georgia outlasted LSU 3-1 with games of 15-8, 15-10, 8-15 and 16-14. The team’s title came in only its eighth year of existence. Other than a pair of seasons with more than 40 wins under Feldman in 1981 and 1982, the ‘85 campaign is undoubtedly considered one of the best in school history. Feldman coached the Bulldogs through the ‘88 season, including an ‘86 campaign where Georgia won the SEC regular season title, and his teams had eight seasons with at least 22 victories.

1985 standouts Jenny McDowell (third-most assists in a single season) - 1,630 Jenny McDowell (third-most service aces in a single season) - 68 Laurie Henderson (second-most digs in a single season) - 580 Shelly Gross (third-most digs in a single season) - 575
