OUTLOOK

Bulldogs Poised To Take Next Step in 2009

W

hen head coach Patrick Baker arrived in Athens in December of 2004, the mindset of the Georgia soccer program was about qualifying for the eight-team SEC Tournament in Orange Beach, Ala.

Five years later, Baker has raised the bar. Not only has making the SEC Tournament become routine for Georgia, the Bulldogs have advanced to the championship game in each of the past two seasons.

In 2007, Georgia had its best season ever, amassing a school-record 18 wins, while shattering attendance records and was a No. 3 seed in the NCAA Tournament, its highest seed ever.

In 2008, the Bulldogs played the second-toughest schedule in America, advanced to championship Sunday and earned a second straight at-large selection for the NCAA Tournament.

Now in 2009, Georgia has taken a new mindset and is poised to not only stay

in contention for a championship, but the Bulldogs are ready to bring home a title to Athens. UGA returns nine starters this season along with eight seniors who have set a school record with 20 SEC wins in the last three years.

“What we’ve been able to accomplish the last two years brings us to a new level of expectations,” Baker said. “There are things this group has been a part of and have seen first hand. We’ve been in the hunt the last two years so our players know what that’s about. When you’ve been through it a couple of times and come up a little short, it makes you want it even more. Everyone is looking forward this year to have a chance to capture our first championship and make a great run in the postseason.”

Baker says the keys to making a championship run are no different than in any other season; Georgia must stay healthy and fit and play its best soccer at the end of the season.

“We’ve been able to do that the last two seasons, but we just haven’t taken it to that next plateau,” Baker said. “With all the experiences the players have had, a veteran group coming back and another nationally-ranked recruiting class coming in, we have a lot of things working in our favor.”

An important factor to Georgia’s success in 2009 is the schedule. While the non-conference slate is challenging again, it is not the daunting schedule from 2008.

Georgia has 12 home games this season including eight games on Friday nights. The 2009 slate resembles the scheduled the Bulldogs had two seasons ago when Georgia enjoyed its best season in school history.

“We’re excited to have so many home games this year,” Baker said. “The crowds have been wonderful and a great home environment will help us as well.”

Georgia will also be helped by another stellar group of newcomers. The Bulldogs signed their fourth straight top-20 recruiting

Georgia returns three All-SEC performers from a year ago including (from left) Carrie Patterson, Bailey Powell and Ashley Miller.

OUTLOOK class.

“Coach (Robin) Confer and Coach (Steve) Nugent have done a wonderful job,” Baker said. “If you do not have the talent, it’s going to be hard to be successful. It’s exciting to be able to bring the best talent in the state of Georgia and throughout the southeast here to Athens.”

For the first time in the Patrick Baker era, every player on the team will have had the same in-home visits, heard the same thing and been taught the same system.

“We are blessed to have a collection of young ladies who are close off the field and I think that helps on the field,” Baker said.

The group’s solidarity is evidenced by the fact that the team recently moved into a six houses that forms a neighborhood near the UGA Soccer Stadium off Milledge Avenue in Athens. And while they may not all be best friends, they are friends and they care for each other.

“If you have that going on off the field, it’s going to be much easier to care when the whistle blows and the game starts,” Baker said. That has been the most enjoyable piece the last year and a half. The off the field experiences have been just has enjoyable as the experiences on the field.”

Two of the key senior leaders returning for Georgia are forward Carrie Patterson and goalkeeper Michelle Betos. The duo were almost unanimous selections as team captains as voted on by their teammates.

Patterson is the most prolific scorer in Georgia soccer history.

Betos looks to end her career among the all-time Georgia leaders in wins, shutouts and saves.

“A lot of people realized how good Michelle was last year when she kept us in games in that tough schedule,” Baker said.

“She took great pride in being the best goalkeeper statistically in league play last season.”

While Betos is the vocal leader on the team, Patterson is more a leader by example. She is the most prolific scorer in the history of Georgia soccer, and every point and every goal she scores this season will only add to that. Patterson enters the season having already set the school record for career points and is tied for first in career goals.

While what Patterson has accomplished on the field is important and impressive, she has also matured as a leader off the

Marah Falle (L) and Caroline Simpson (R) are among the five juniors on the Bulldogs’ roster in 2009. field. Patterson became Georgia’s second All-American in program history as a sophomore, but has handled the success well, always giving credit to her teammates.

“It’s quite remarkable what she has done,” Baker said. “We are blessed to have two distinct leaders on the team this year in Carrie and Michelle who command the same type of respect on and off the field. It is exciting to have them lead our team this fall.”

Georgia’s other seniors this season include midfielder/forward Lauren Glancy, defender Natalie Farley, midfielder/defender Leslie McConnell, defender Mary Ricker, midfielder Lindsay Stein and forward Olivia West.

Returning juniors include 2007 SEC Freshman of the Year Kelli Corless along with midfielders Traci Dreesen, Marah Falle, Mariah Krase and Caroline Simpson. Alex Hooker and Caroline Burlingame, who was named the Bulldogs’ most improved player in 2008, return as redshirt sophomores in their third year in the program.

Sophomore Ashley Miller emerged as a compliment to Patterson in 2008 with five goals, second-highest on the team. She

was named to the SEC’s All-Freshman Team, and Bailey Powell was named second team All-SEC. Other returning sophomores include Meghan Gilmore and Jamie Pollock. Ashley Baker, Jamie Bouck, Jenna Buckley and transfer Sarah Jordan return as redshirt freshmen in their second seasons.

The Bulldogs’ exception freshman class includes Susannah Dennis, Laura Eddy, Christina Kyker, Rebekah Perry and Jordan Young.

The 2009 squad will set out to accomplish a program first: no team in Georgia soccer history has made it to three straight NCAA Tournaments. The eight seniors, who came to Georgia four years ago when many others didn’t, will try to leave that as part of their legacy.

“Our players realize we have a wonderful opportunity this year to accomplish a lot of things,” Baker said. “When you knock on the door enough times in certain situations, eventually you are going to break through. When that happens, the program goes to a different level.”

COACHES

HEAD coach

patrickBAKER Fifth Season at Georgia • 51-30-5 (.622) • 21st Overall • 228-134-25 (.621) • Otterbein College ‘89

Patrick Baker enters his fifth year as the head coach of the Georgia Bulldogs and the 21st season of his career. He has sparked a resurgence in the Georgia soccer program, leading the Bulldogs to double-digit wins in each of his four seasons. At the helm of UGA soccer Baker has amassed a record of 51-30-5 (.622). Not only has Baker coached winning teams on the field, he has also had successful teams in the classroom. In each of his four seasons at Georgia, the Bulldogs have been awarded the NSCAA Team Academic Award.

In 2008, Baker and the Bulldogs faced one of the nation’s toughest schedules. In the end, Georgia faced seven teams that finished in the top 15 of the final Ratings Percentage Index. Included in that mix was No. 1 North Carolina, which would eventually go on to win the national championship, No. 3 Stanford, No. 8 Florida, No. 9 Duke, No. 12 Virginia, No. 14 Southern California and No. 15 BYU. Undaunted by their early-season struggles against the nation’s toughest schedule, the Bulldogs finished the regular season with a 9-9-1 record as they began the SEC Tournament. Forced by the task to win at least once in the tournament, Georgia earned a firstround win over South Carolina, then nearly cemented their standing in the NCAA Tournament with a 3-0 win over then No. 7 Florida, the highest ranked team any Georgia squad has defeated. It was Georgia’s second-straight appearance in the SEC Championship game and the NCAA Tournament.

The 2008 season saw four players earn All-SEC status, including Megan Tomlinson, who became the fourth straight player under Baker to earn a major conference award when she was voted the SEC Defensive Player of the Year honors and was named First Team All-SEC. Carrie Patterson joined Tomlinson on the All-SEC First Team, while Bailey Powell was named Second Team All-SEC and a Freshman All-SEC performer, and Ashley Miller was named a member of the Freshman All-SEC Team. Baker has now seen 10 different players earn 18 All-SEC awards, including eight First-Team honorees.

Baker also saw two members of his 15th-ranked 2008 recruiting class invited to their respective national team camps.

Redshirt freshman goalkeeper Ashley Baker was selected to the England U-20 National Team that competed in the 2008 FIFA U-20 World Cup in Chile last November. In January 2009, sophomore defender Bailey Powell was invited to the first of many training camps with the United States U-20 National Team.

Baker led Georgia to a monumental season in 2007, setting or tying several school records including most wins in a season (18) and fewest losses in a season (4). Georgia posted its best regular season in program history with 15 wins including the program’s first-

ever win over rival Florida. The Bulldogs finished second in the SEC, also a first for the program, and advanced the the finals of the SEC Tournament.

In 2006, Georgia posted its second straight winning season for the first time sine 2000-01. Two members of Baker’s first signing class at Georgia made immediate impact as Carrie Patterson was named SEC Freshman of the Year and goalkeeper Michelle Betos also earned All-SEC recognition.

In 2005, Baker’s first year at the helm for Georgia, Baker completed the second-best turnaround in SEC history, winning eight more games than in the previous year. Under his leadership, the Bulldogs improved to 12-6-2, good enough for a fifth-place finish in the SEC and a return to the SEC Tournament. Georgia thrived in Baker’s 4-4-2 system, scoring 14 more goals than the previous year, hitting the back of the net 34 times. The Dogs also posted the best defensive effort in program history, allowing just 10 regular-season goals.

One of Baker’s most crucial decisions before the 2005 season began was to take a former defender, senior Ali Williams, and place her up top into an attacking role. Williams went on to lead the team and the conference in scoring and earned SEC Offensive Player of the Year honors.

Baker’s recent signing classes are another true testament to the recruiting prowess of him and his staff. With this incoming 2009 class, Baker inked two-time defending Tennessee Player of the Year in Susannah Dennis and the 2009 Georgia State Player of the Year in Laura Eddy. Also, four of their five signees have and extensive experience with the Region III Olympic Development Program and have played against some of the strongest competition from around the world.

Baker, the third head coach at Georgia since the program’s inception in 1995, came to Athens in December of 2004 with impressive credentials. He amassed an 80-46-11 overall record in six successful seasons at Florida State that included five straight trips to the NCAA Tournament appearances.

Similar to the circumstances under which he was hired at Georgia, Baker was hired as the Florida State head coach with the hope that he could turn around a struggling program. Baker did not disappoint, coaching his team to a winning record of 14-8-2 in just his second year at the Seminole helm in 2000. In 2001, Baker led his team to the program’s first winning record in ACC play, going 4-3.

That team also reached the ACC Tournament Championship game, a program first.

come in 2003. Expectations were running high as the team was a consensus top-15 preseason ranking and was coming off its second Sweet 16 appearance in three years. After getting off to a rocky 1-4 start, Baker coached his team to a 17-8-1 final record and the program’s first College Cup appearance. “1-4 to the Final Four” is how the 2003 Seminoles are remembered. Baker was named the Soccer America National Coach of the Year for his efforts.

In what would end up as his final year as the Seminole head coach, Baker lead his 2004 Florida State team to a 12-5-3 record, including a 1-0 win against Georgia in Tallahassee.

Competing in arguably the toughest women’s soccer conference in the country, Baker’s team finished in the top three of the Atlantic Coast Conference standings three of his last four years and reached the ACC Tournament Championship in 2001 and 2003.

Over his six-year FSU career, Baker’s squads finished in the top-20 five straight times, including a top-five showing in 2003. The Seminoles reached the NCAA Sweet 16 in 2000 and 2002 and they registered 18 wins against ranked teams. He also coached all four of the highest-scoring teams in Florida State history. His Seminole squads hold school records for wins, winning percentage, best ACC winning percentage, most ACC wins, most goals scored and fewest goals allowed.

Baker began his coaching career at Division III North Carolina Wesleyan in 1989. Not only was he the head coach of the women’s soccer program, but also took on the jobs of Sports Information Director for 12 sports and Head Groundskeeper for soccer.

In five years at NC Wesleyan, Baker led his team to a record of 45-214, twice earning Dixie Conference Coach of the Year honors. He coached the Lady Bishops to three Div. III NCAA Tournament appearances and three top-10 finishes as well.

In 1991, Baker was named the National Soccer Coaches of America (NSCAA) Division III South Region Coach of the Year. Baker was inducted into the North Carolina Wesleyan Athletic Hall of Fame in 2002.

Following his success at Wesleyan, Baker made the jump to Division I as he became the

COACHES head women’s soccer coach at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia in 1994. Over the next five years, Baker compiled a 42-37-5 record in at the Quaker helm.

In just his second year at the Penn head coach, his team posted the best record in the program’s history and registered its first-ever winning season, going 8-6-2. Just two years later, his 1997 Quaker squad became one of the most successful in school history.

The team recorded double-digit wins for the first time, going 14-5-0, and had its first in-conference winning season with a 5-2-0 mark.

The crowning achievement came in the postseason, when the Quakers captured the school’s first Eastern College Athletic Conference (ECAC) Championship. For his successes, Baker was named the Mid-Atlantic Region Coach of the Year.

Under Baker’s direction, Penn saw its players receive All-Ivy League, All-District and All-Region selections for the first time in the program’s history. Several of the offensive and defensive records that were established during Baker’s time as head coach still remain in the top five in the Quaker record book.

Following another winning season off 11-5-1 in 1998, Baker was hired to become the second coach in the short history of the Florida State program, taking over for Heather Kerby-Nelson.

Along every stop during his coaching career, a significant trend has developed — Baker’s ability to turn a program around and set it on a winning course. Baker has of course shown a knack for taking a struggling team and making it a winner during his tenure.

But one fact that may be even more impressive is that he has always been able to leave that team in a situation conducive to future success.

Since his departure from North Carolina Wesleyan, the Lady Bishops have gone on to win seven conference crowns, including six in a row from 1996-2001. At Penn, the Quakers became ECAC Champions in 2000 and won the Ivy League in 2001. Finally, the 2005 Florida State Seminoles made a return trip to the College Cup before falling to national runner-up UCLA.

Baker is also an integral member of the US National Team program and served as the interim head coach for the U-17 National Team after assisting head coach David Smith with the newly formed team. He has also assisted U-19 National Team head coach Tracey Leone on numerous occasions at the Arco Training Center in Chula Vista, Calif., preparing the team for the inaugural U-19 FIFA World Championships. Baker helped the U-19 National Team prepare for a match against the Mexican National Team and for a European tour in 2001. He recently traveled to help prep the full national team for an Olympic friendly versus the Australian National Team that Baker’s squad faced three times during the summer of 2004. He served as the head coach for the Region III girl’s Olympic Development Program (ODP) and was named an assistant coach for the 2000 U-16 Women’s National Team.

Baker has attended the South Region ODP camps since 1990 and has a total of 18 years experience at all levels of the ODP. Prior to working with the U-16 team, he assisted head coach Lauren Gregg with the U-21 Women’s National Team for three consecutive years. He served four years at the U-14 state level in North Carolina and was the 1996 U-17 ODP state coach for Eastern Pennsylvania.

Baker coached the U-16 and U-18 ODP South Regional camps for eight years and was the assistant coach for the U-17 South Region team from 1991-93. Baker was also the U.S. South Region amateur coach for the five years where he received the national coach of the

year award in 1994.

Baker received his Bachelor of Arts from Otterbein College in 1989 as a double major in Radio & Television Broadcasting and Journalism with a minor in Public Relations. He graduated with a 3.67 GPA and was a four-year starter for the men’s soccer team. Baker was named team captain as a junior and senior. He was a member of the Ohio Athletic Conference (OAC) All-Academic Team from 198689, was a first-team All-Conference selection in 1989 and played on three OAC Championship squads. Baker played soccer for 11 years in England and Germany while his father was stationed overseas with the U.S. Air Force.

Baker is married to Kelly Sack-Baker, and the couple has two children, Emma Louise, 8, and Ryan Patrick, 6.

COACHES

robinCONFER Fifth Season • Recruiting Coordinator • North Carolina ‘98 Robin Confer begins her fifth year as Georgia’s assistant coach and recruiting coordinator. 2009 marks her seventh year overall in that position under Patrick Baker, including two years at Florida State.

As the recruiting coordinator, Confer has played an integral role in bringing the three highest-ranked signing classes in UGA history to Athens. The 2006 class was ranked No. 8, the 2007 group was rated No. 14 and most recently the 2008 class earned a No. 15 ranking.

As a former forward for the U.S. National Team, Confer pays special attention to Georgia’s attacking players. In 2007 she helped coach sophomore Carrie Patterson to NSCAA Second-Team All-American accolades, as she became just the second Bulldog ever to earn that award. In 2006, Patterson earned SoccerBuzz Freshman All-America, SEC Freshman of the Year, First-Team AllSEC and Second-team All-Southeast Region honors. Confer also assisted with the transition of senior Ali Williams from defender to forward in 2005, a move which sent Williams on to earn SEC Offensive Player of the Year recognition.

When Baker announced Confer’s hiring in 2003 at Florida State, he hoped she would help bring the program to new levels due to her experience as a National Champion during her playing days at North Carolina. The plan worked better than expected as within six months of her stepping foot on campus the Seminoles played in the program’s first College Cup as they advanced to the final four of the 2003 NCAA Tournament.

Confer joined the Seminole staff after a stellar career in the ACC and successful coaching stints in the Atlantic Coast Conference, Big 12 and Southeastern Conference. The former 1997 National Player of the Year and three-time national champion at North Carolina is embarking on her ninth year in the collegiate coaching ranks.

With Confer alongside Baker in Tallahassee, the Seminoles posted a 29-13-4 overall record, a 9-5-2 mark in the ACC and advanced to the program’s first College Cup in 2003.

Confer is no stranger to life in the SEC, as she was an assistant coach at Mississippi State for one season under head coach Neil McGuire before joining the Seminole staff. Before her stint in Starkville, Miss., Confer served as a second assistant at one of the top women’s soccer programs in the nation at Texas A&M. While working with Aggie head coach G. Guerrieri, Confer and Texas A&M advanced to the Sweet 16 in back-to-back NCAA Tournaments.

In addition to her UGA coaching responsibilities, Confer is a Southeast Region III ODP staff coach and is also involved with ODP in the state of Georgia.

Confer’s first coaching experience came at her alma mater as she served as a volunteer assistant under coaching legend Anson Dorrance at North Carolina. A four-year starter at North Carolina

from 1994-1997, Confer helped the Tar Heels to three national championships (1994, 1996-1997). During her senior season, Confer was named the National Player of the Year by both the Soccer News and SoccerBuzz. In North Carolina’s run to the 1997 National Championship, Confer was named the Most Valuable Offensive Player of the NCAA Final Four, as well as being named a first-team All-American. She was also a finalist for the Hermann Award, which recognizes the nation’s top collegiate soccer athlete, and a semifinalist for the Missouri Athletic Club Sports Foundation Player of the Year award in 1998. Confer currently ranks fourth on UNC’s career point-scoring list behind such great names as Mia Hamm and April Heinrichs. She is the fifth-leading goal scorer in Tar Heel history with 77 tallies, and her 55 career assists are the sixth most in North Carolina soccer history. Confer never missed a game in her Carolina career and holds the NCAA record with most games played at 107. She is one of just 11 former North Carolina players to have had their jersey retired. She was also named to The Atlantic Coast Conference 50th Anniversary Women’s Soccer team which recognized the top 50 players in the conference since 1987.

A former captain of the U.S U-20 Youth National team, Confer eventually made her Women’s National Team debut January 18, 1996, against Ukraine and was a member of the pool from 96-99 and earned 8 caps and 1 goal.

In 2001, she was drafted in the fifth round of the WUSA’s Global Draft as a member of the Boston Breakers in the league’s inaugural season before a back injury cut her playing career short.

Confer was a standout forward at Clearwater (FL) Central Catholic High School where she scored 227 goals, including 80 during her senior season prior to being named a Parade All-American.

Confer received her bachelor’s degree in exercise and sports science from North Carolina in 1998.

steveNUGENT Second Season • Goalkeepers Coach • Florida Atlantic ‘96 Steve Nugent enters his second year on the Georgia coaching staff and will concentrate on training the Bulldog goalkeepers, recruiting, and team travel. Nugent has more than 18 years of coaching experience at the college, club, ODP, and high school levels most recently serving as the High School age director and recruiting coordinator for Team Boca in Boca Raton, Fla.. Nugent has been associated with Coach Patrick Baker for over 15 years and served as a graduate assistant on Baker’s staff at Florida State from 2000-2001. Under the direction of Baker and Nugent, the Seminoles advanced to the NCAA Sweet Sixteen in 2000. Nugent’s work with Georgia’s goalkeepers in 2008 helped Michelle Betos record 117 saves, second most in a single season. Betos also recorded a .61 goals against average during SEC play and led the league in shutouts and wins.

From 1989 to 2000 and then again from 2002 to 2008, Nugent was a driving force behind Team Boca’s girls program and one of the original staff coaches. Nugent led the 88/89 White team to State Championship appearances at U14, U15, U16, and U18 winning the championship at U15. The team graduated 14 players that committed to play college soccer in the fall of 2007. Nugent coached the 90/91 White team that claimed tournament titles at the Raleigh Shootout, Orange Classic and the 2007 Disney Showcase. From 1996 to 2003, he coached the 1985 team to 8 State Championship appearances winning the title an unprecedented 7 times (an FYSA record). This team in 2000 made it to the Southern Regional semi finals.

Nugent coached the 1982 team to a state title and regional appearance. The team included five players with youth and full national team experience (Lisa Gomez, Kara Rao, Maren Jaffee, Nandi Pryce, and Amber Tollefson). At 17, Nandi Pryce became on the youngest players to play in a full international when she played against Norway in Ft. Lauderdale, Fla., in 2000. Since 1989, Nugent has coached 12 State Championship teams and has taken 16 teams to the final four.

Nugent has helped countless girls reach their goal of playing high level college soccer and ultimately achieving their educational goals. Many of the Team Boca players over the years have represented both FYSA on the ODP state teams and over 40 different girls have been invited into the Region III ODP player pool. Team Boca has had 3 players reach the ultimate goal of playing for the US National Team (Kristy Whelchel, Nandi Pryce, India Trotter), and one player, Lisa Gomez, has been full time with the Mexican National team since 2002. Ten different players have represented the youth national teams since 1990.

In January 2006, Nugent received the prestigious honor of being selected as the NSCAA Southern Region Coach of the Year. He was chosen amongst his peers for his continued success on and off the field with Team Boca. The criteria used in selecting Steve Nugent was “the overall strength of his resume along with the fact that he is extremely well respected by his coaching peers” said Kathy Zolad, who is the NSCAA Selection Committee Chairperson, as well as a current NSCAA Board Member. The NSCAA also awarded Nugent with his NSCAA Advanced National Diploma with a Distinguished Passing grade given to those candidates that show promise in becoming future NSCAA Staff members. Nugent has been recognized by the City of Boca Raton on six occasions for outstanding commitment to the youth of Boca Raton through soccer.

During the 200-2001 college seasons, Nugent spent time at FSU as an assistant coach under current UGA head coach Patrick Baker and was the lead assistant at Rice University under Head Coach Chris Huston.

The Seminoles at FSU made it to the Sweet Sixteen in 2000. Nugent

worked with Chris at Rice at started the women’s program from scratch.

The first season was in 2001 and he helped to recruit the first class of 14 freshmen, worked on team sponsorship, prepared on field coaching, and was the recruiting coordinator. From 1994-1996, he was a volunteer assistant coach at Lynn University where the women won the 1995 NAIA National Championship and were the 1996 runner up. After his wife Janna finished law school at FSU, Nugent decided to return to the South Florida area.

Upon returning to Team Boca in January of 2002 he was tasked with the responsibility of formulating a philosophy of teaching both players and coaches at Team Boca. With the help of strong base of volunteers and committed staff, Team Boca was able to reach new heights immediately. Since 2002 Team Boca has put more teams in the FYSA Final Four than any other club. In 2004, the club enjoyed the most success ever for a girls program in Florida sending six teams to the final four.

That year Team Boca took home three state titles (U15, U18, and U19) and all three teams represented Florida at Southern Regionals in Austin, Texas. Nugent’s teams have been recognized on two occasions with the Fair Play Award at the USYSA Region III tournament, have won many prestigious tournaments throughout the U.S. including Raleigh, Orange Classic, Shootout, and the Disney Showcase.

Nugent’s extensive experience in the camp industry will be an integral part of the Patrick Baker Soccer Camps held each summer at the University of Georgia. He has spent the better part of 17 years working at various camps throughout the USA and from 2001 to 2006 was the director of the Saint Andrew’s Soccer Camps held in Boca Raton, Fla. Nugent holds the USSF B License, KNVB Dutch coaching certificate, NSCAA Level I and Level II Goalkeeping license, the USYS Youth National Coaching License, and the NSCAA Advanced National Diploma.

A native of Boston, Mass., Nugent earned his bachelor’s degree in history from Florida Atlantic University in 1996. He is married to the former Janna Satz of Miami, Fla., and they two sons, Trevor and Brady.

Mandy Langton

Strength and Conditioning

Athletic Training

The Georgia soccer team’s strength and conditioning training is supervised by fifthyear Director of Strength and Conditioning for Olympic Sports, Katrin Koch.

Koch came to Athens in 2004 from Indiana University, where she was an NCAA Champion in two sports and had been a member of the strength and conditioning staff for more than a decade, training one of the country’s most successful and highly touted men’s soccer teams.

The purpose of the strength and conditioning program is to provide the student-athletes with the best possible chance to reach their greatest potential in a safe and proficient manner, in order to help prevent injury and enhance athletic performance. There are several different components to a successful program: Strength, Flexibility, Agility and Quickness, Plyometrics, Speed Development and Conditioning.

Because of the complex nature of the sport of soccer, these components must be balanced in a way to effectively improve the athlete while maximizing the time spent in and out of the weight room. This program is designed to continuously improve the athletes even during the competitive season.

The soccer team has use of the brandnew 16,000-square foot weight room located in Stegeman Coliseum Annex, which is for the exclusive use of UGA student-athletes and features some of the latest strength training equipment available as well as a 50-yard running track.

Koch has two sons, Alexander (4), and Christopher (1).

Mandy Langton joined the University of Georgia Sports Medicine Staff in June 2002.

Her responsibilities include but are not limited to the medical care, prevention and rehabilitation of injuries of all the athletes on the women’s soccer team.

Prior to her full time position with the University, Mandy was a graduate assistant athletic trainer for the UGA women’s volleyball team. During that time, she received her Masters of Education degree in Sports Management graduating in May 2002. Mandy attended West Virginia University where she received her Bachelor of Science degree in Athletic Training with a minor in sports psychology in 2000.

She is a certified & licensed member of the National Athletic Trainers’ Association and Georgia Board of Athletic Trainers, as well as a Nationally Registered Emergency Medical Technician-Intermediate.

Additionally, she is a member of the eating disorder management team that services all UGA athletes and a CPR instructor. She has also been an adjunct professor in the department of Kinesiology and serves as an approved clinical instructor for the athletic training student program.

A native of Williamstown, WV Mandy and her husband, Ryan, now call Athens, Ga., home. The Langton’s welcomed their daughter, Hayden Kathryn, on November 14, 2008.

2008 SEASON

Undaunted By Foes, Bulldogs Achieve Unexpected Heights In 2008 The 2008 Georgia soccer team struggles early, recovers to advance to second straight SEC Championship game and NCAA Tournament appearance.

The 2008 Georgia soccer season might not have gone totally according to plan, but head coach Patrick Baker might have learned more about his team this season than at any other time during his four-year Georgia coaching career.

From starting the season 3-8-1, to breaking school records and reaching a second straight NCAA Tournament, the Georgia Bulldogs endured many highs and lows throughout the 2008 season.

“Looking back at the fall, you feel a lot of emotions and realize that we overcame a lot to have the successful season we had,” Baker said. “The journey to finishing second

ship, No. 3 Stanford, No. 8 Florida, No. 9 Duke, No. 12 Virginia, No. 14 Southern California and No. 15 BYU. With the return of their projected lineup in time for the start of the conference season, success did not immediately follow as the Bulldogs began league play with a 1-2-1 record, moving their overall mark to 3-8-1 and severely hindering their prospects of making the NCAA Tournament.

“I’m sure a lot of people thought we were doomed, but the players never lost faith and started one of the most remarkable runs I have ever had the joy to witness,” Baker said. “There was no room for error - ties weren’t going to help us and mathematically we were in danger of having a losing season.”

Despite the struggles of the early part of the season, that would not deter the Bulldogs as they would enjoy a 6-1 record during the final seven games of the SEC season, finishing with seven conference wins, the second most conference victories in school history, and securing a spot in the SEC Tournament for the fourth consecutive year.

Georgia would establish itself as one of the most balanced teams in the conference as its defense would allow the fewest goals and shots allowed during the conference season. During Bailey Powell played every minute of every game on the a seven-game stretch from Oct. 10 to Oct. 31, the Georgia defense would backline for Georgia in 2008. earn five shutouts and allow just two in the conference, playing again for the goals in those seven games. In that time, SEC championship and making the NCAA Georgia would earn a weekend sweep of Tournament was a far different journey this Vanderbilt and Kentucky at home, on the year than in 2007.

build up. Going on the road and sweeping the Mississippi schools, beating an upstart Alabama team and winning for the first time in Knoxville to end the regular season was impressive. During that time, our line-up started to materialize and we found a rotation that seemed to work for us.”

In that stretch, two Georgia players earned SEC Defensive Player of the Week honors in back-to-back weeks. On Oct. 14, senior defender Megan Tomlinson earned Georgia’s first weekly conference award of the season and junior goalkeeper Michelle Betos would win it the following week after posting shutout wins at Mississippi State and Ole Miss.

Betos was brilliant in net for Georgia during the conference season, earning a 0.61 goals against average during the conference season, tops among goalies appearing in all 11 games during the conference season.

Meanwhile, the offense clicked as the season went on. Junior forward Carrie Patterson broke the all-time points record in an Oct. 26 game at Alabama with a goal and

And in Georgia’s final game of the regular season, Patterson would net two goals to join Mandy Aiken for the all-time lead in goals scored in Georgia history with 33. Her effort would earn her the final SEC Offensive Player of the Week award of the season.

Freshman Ashley Miller emerged as a complement to Patterson on the front line as she accounted for five goals during the season, the secondmost on the team. Her performances against Arkansas, LSU, Vanderbilt and Kentucky were impressive, scoring the game-winners against Arkansas, Vanderbilt and Kentucky.

In the fifth minute, Miller got the first goal of her career via a rebound; junior Carrie Patterson’s initial shot was blocked by the Mercer goalkeeper, but Miller followed the play and was in perfect position to one-time a leftfooted shot into the right side of the net to give Georgia a quick 1-0 lead.

Miller’s second goal came in the 74th minute; Mariah Krase teed up a free kick from the right side of goal about 25 yards out. A nicely curled serve found Miller, who once again one-timed a shot past the Mercer keeper, which gave Georgia a convincing 2-0 lead and one that would stand up.

In total, Virginia’s offensive attack got off 24 shots – five shy the record of 29 shots by an opposing team, which Tennessee set back in 2000 – but only one could ripple the twine. It came off a corner kick in the 69th minute, when Caitlin Miskel bent a corner kick from the far side into the box where Kelly Quinn headed the ball past Georgia keeper Michelle Betos for the only score of the game.

The No. 22 Georgia Bulldogs struggled on both ends of the field in a 2-0 loss to No. 10 Stanford.

Both goals came off the foot of Lindsay Taylor and came about five minutes apart.

The first goal came in the 16th minute when Christen Press served a pass from the far side just outside the 18-yard box and it found Lindsay Taylor, who had just enough free space to fire a shot into the net to give the Cardinal a quick 1-0 advantage.

It took a little more than five minutes for the Cardinal to strike again. In the 21st minute, Taylor got free from the defense again and had a free path to the goal, where she rifled a shot into the right side of the net, passed a diving Michelle Betos, to round out the scoring.

The Bulldogs bid for an upset win ended 2:11 into overtime as the USC Trojans scored three unanswered goals to steal a 3-2 win.

Mariah Krase scored off a header by way of an Olivia West cross in the 34th minute to give Georgia a 1-0 lead. Less than two minutes later Carrie Patterson had an easy empty net goal off a rebound to give the Bulldogs a 2-0 lead.

After halftime, however, the game belonged to the Trojans. USC scored in the 54th minute then 10 minutes later to tie the game.

Just more than two minutes into the second overtime, USC moved the ball up field to Ashley Freyer, who from 12-yards out was able to get the winning goal into the left side of the net to cap the comeback.

The Georgia soccer team celebrated Senior Night against Auburn, but couldn’t enjoy victory as the host Bulldogs dropped a 1-0 contest to the visiting Tigers in front of 1,161 fans and a Fox Soccer Channel audience.

All four of Georgia’s seniors started the game with Courtney Cripps making her first start for the Bulldogs in net. Cripps, however, would take the loss as Auburn’s goal came on a shot that not many keepers in the nation would be able to stop.

Auburn had a frenetic sequence right in front of Cripps and after a clearance, the ball would find Auburn’s Katy Frierson, who was 30 yards from net. That would not deter her from firing a one-timer that sailed over everyone’s head into the left side of the net that would give Auburn the game-winning score.

The Georgia soccer team was able to get back on the winning path with a convincing 2-0 victory against the Alabama Crimson Tide.

The game was highlighted by the effort of Carrie Patterson, who with a goal and an assist, moved into first place in school history on the all-time points list. She surpassed the 78 points scored by Mandy Aiken from 1995-98.

In the 11th minute, Patterson’s initial shot was blocked by the Alabama keeper, but the rebound found Megan Tomlinson for an open net score, with Patterson earning an assist.

Patterson then claimed the record when she scored a goal of her own in the 21st minute. Tomlinson sent a pass across the box, where Patterson nailed a one-timer toward the far post to give Georgia a commanding 2-0 lead.

The Bulldogs have been awarded the NSCAA Team Academic Award six straight years and in seven of the last eight. The award is given annually to collegiate teams that maintain a team GPA over a 3.0 The display also recognizes the individual player who finishes the year with the highest GPA, an award established by head coach Patrick Baker in 2005.

HISTORY

A national attendance leader

Since its inception in 1995, the University of Georgia soccer team has received some of the best annual fan support in the nation. In 2008, Georgia averaged a home attendance of 1,460, ranking second in the Southeastern Conference and seventh in the country.

The Bulldogs’ largest crowd of the year was 1,887 in a 1-0 loss to No. 7 Virginia on Sept. 5.

Since the NCAA began to track attendance statistics for women’s soccer in 1998, Georgia has been among the top 10 teams in average home attendance every year except 2006, when the team finished 14th. In the unofficial tallies, the Bulldogs were in the top 10 in 1997 and 1996 as well.

The terrific fan support has certainly helped fuel Georgia’s success at home throughout its 12-year history. The Bulldogs, with a 93-33-9 (.722) mark all-time record at home, own a 71-26-8 (.714) record in their current home at the friendly confines of the UGA Soccer Stadium.

Inside the clubhouse, aesthetic improvements are constantly being made, including the display of past team photos and awards and the addition of new lightboards to highlight the program’s past successes.

Other recent improvements to the complex have been made with the intention of enhancing the fan experience. Such projects include new restrooms, an expanded concession stand and promotions booth, all located just underneath the grandstands.

In 2004, the complex saw the completion of a brand new clubhouse which features state-of-the-art video and training equipment, a full-service kitchen and catering area, players’ lounge and coaches’ offices.

In 2005, the complex saw the addition of a new DAKTRONICS scoreboard with a a digital video and graphics display. Some of the new equipment’s capabilities will include the display of video headshots of players and coaches, highlight videos and promotional and crowd-pumping messages.

On Sept. 1, 2006, the home of the Georgia soccer team was officially named The Turner Soccer Complex in a pregame ceremony in front of 1,768 fans. Hoyt “Jack” Turner (center) pictured with UGA President Michael F. Adams (left) and UGA Director of Athletics Damon Evans (right).

Before every home game, the Bulldogs make their entrance into the stadium via the Dawg Walk. Fans gather at the field’s entrance to wish the players good luck as they head out to pregrame warmups. The players also pass by a Bulldog statue donated to the program by the Goal Club.

FACILITIES In 2006, the home of Georgia Soccer was renamed the Turner Soccer Complex, recognizing the contributions and support received from the Hoyt “Jack” Turner family of Athens.

Turner’s significant financial contributions have helped to provide the Georgia soccer program with the top-notch facility that it now enjoys.

Turner, who passed away on Feb. 4, 2008, was a Georgia baseball (1951) and basketball (1951-52) player who also served as the volunteer chairman of the Athletic Scholarship Endowment Program.

In addition to its contributions to the soccer program, the Turner family has endowed 10 scholarships for football, men’s and women’s basketball, gymnastics and baseball.

A 1953 graduate of UGA’s Terry College of Business, Turner received a Distinguished Service Award from the college in 2002.

The former chairman of American Funds Distributors, he established the Turner Family Foundation in support of local charities.

UGA Something for everyone. That’s one way to describe the academic, athletic and social experience at the University of Georgia. UGA is a leader among public universities nationally with a breadth and diversity of degree programs that rival any institution of higher learning. With its top-notch facilities campus-wide, the University of Georgia is an ideal setting for anyone to pursue a world-class education.

The University of Georgia’s reputation as a leader in higher education is well documented and growing every day. Programs in business, education, journalism, law and public administration are ranked in the top-20 nationally.

UGA offers 19 baccalaureate degrees in 128 fields.

Popular majors include biology, psychology, political science, marketing and finance. All told, UGA offers more than 140 different degrees, everything from accounting to women’s studies.

The University of Georgia is the birthplace of public higher education in the United States. UGA was the first state-chartered university in the entire nation. On Jan. 27, 1985, the Georgia State Legislature drafted the papers to create the University of Georgia. UGA was created two years before the Constitution was signed and four years before George Washington was inaugurated as the first President of the United States.

The University of Georgia’s main campus has grown from a small series of buildings on North Campus to a 615-acre masterpiece that is generally regarded as one of the most efficient and picturesque in the nation.

In all, the University of Georgia spans 34 counties and covers 42,247 acres.

UGA’s impressive academic standards are reflected in the quality of students it attracts. The 2007 freshman class of approximately 4,800 students is the most academically qualified in UGA history, with a 1242 SAT average and a 3.77 GPA. More than 17,000 people applied to UGA in 2007.

UGA students annually receive some of the most prestigious scholarships award to American undergraduates. UGA is the only public university in America with two Rhodes Scholars this year. The only other institutions

with more than one are Columbia, Harvard, Princeton, Stanford, Chicago and St. Olaf College.

UGA students have won almost 50 national academic scholarships such as the Rhodes, the Marshall, the Truman, the Gates-Cambridge and the Goldwater in the past 10 years.

Georgia and UGA are on the list of five finalists for the National Bioand Agro-Defense Facility, or NBAF. This will be the federal government’s premier facility for addressing threats to human health through animal-borne disease such as West Nile, avian flu and others. NBAF will be a $500 million construction project and will employ some 300 highly educated researchers and technicians.

Both a land grant and sea grant institution, the University of Georgia has consistently been ranked among the nation’s top universities. Kiplinger’s magazine ranked UGA seventh on its 2007 list of the top-50 “Best Values” in Public Colleges. UGA is ranked 20th among public universities in the latest U.S. News & World Report “Best Colleges” issue. U.S. News has ranked UGA 22nd or better for nine years in a row. The Wall Street Journal included UGA among 16 “Hot Schools” that are drawing increased attention from students and families because of cost, safety and academic quality advantages.

The University of Georgia also has some of the most outstanding facilities in the country. UGA’s $43 million Student Learning Center, located in the heart of campus, is one of the largest and most technologically advanced facilities of its kind on an American university campus. The Paul D. Coverdell Center for Biomedical and Health Sciences, which opened in 2006, provides space for faculty to conduct research in such areas as biomedicine, agriculture, ecology and environmental sciences. The 425,000 square foot Bernard B. and Eugenia A. Ramsey Student Center for Physical Activities is one of the largest and most comprehensive fitness/ exercise facilities for students and faculty in the country, and has been rated by Sports Illustrated as the nation’s best such facility.
