2013 Season Preview
GEORGIA LOOKING TO BREAK THROUGH IN 2013
Georgia enters the 2013 season looking to make a deep run matches and beat some really good players this fall. Kate has jumped into the 2013 NCAA tournament. The Bulldogs return five players who into the rankings at No. 54 and had a super solid fall. And Makenzie, account for nearly 70 percent of the team’s 2011-12 singles wins and who was the one freshman that joined us in the fall, is ranked No. 76. almost 60 percent of the team’s doubles victories So the fall was good, but we know that all of the big stuff is in front of Georgia has more to look forward to than just what it has us from January until May. There’s a lot of work that still needs to be put returning. The Bulldogs welcome four newcomers, including three in. We have some new players that we’re excited about, and I’m just that arrived on campus in January.

Shannon McCarthy was probably one of the first ones. And you just Wallace: I think that our fall went really well with our returners. I think sit there and wonder ‘how are we ever going to replace a Shannon that has set us up for a really good year. Everyone worked hard on McCarthy?’ and then Angela Lettiere comes along and you say the their matches and played hard in the tournaments this fall, which same thing and then Marissa Catlin comes along and then Aarthi helped to develop a lot of confidence.

2013 Season Preview three or four players stepping up and making jumps in their games. That’s what we want to try to have this team do—have everyone play to the top of their abilities as much as they can. Q: Who are you looking to for leadership this spring? Wallace: I think we have great leadership. They all lead in different ways and that’s what’s so exciting about this team. I think that leadership isn’t going to be an issue with us. We have a really good team that seems to make good choices and really get along. They’re engaged in what we’re trying to accomplish. I think the maturity is there and now we just need to keep focusing on work and getting better each day to get ready for these matches. Q: Freshman Makenzie Craft joined the team in the fall—what has it been like working with her? Wallace: It’s great. She had a really good fall and she’s fun to work with. Sometimes it can be lonely when you’re the only freshman but at the same time it’s good because you can get a lot of attention. Now all of a sudden she’s got three other freshmen with her and we’re all excited about that. Q: Let’s talk about the January enrollees. Mia King, Ayaka Okuno and Silvia Garcia have all joined the team. What are your expectations for them? Wallace: It’s really exciting to have them here in Athens. They’re all fired up and bring a ton of energy and the returning players are excited to have them join the group. We finally have a full squad. They’re great players and are going to fit in very nicely. I feel like they can all play singles and all play doubles and are hard workers. They all love the Red and Black and are here for the right reasons. They love this program and want it to be successful while getting a great education. It’s exciting and I’m thrilled they’re all here. Each day they’re going to get a lot better. Q: With a roster of nine, it seems like there will be a lot of depth on this team. How and when does that help? Wallace: It helps all through the year. First, I think that it helps to keep everyone on their toes and working hard in practice and realizing they have to bring it every day. Second, I think it’s always good to know that if somebody gets sick or gets injured, that you have somebody that can fill in. Third, if you look at a lot of our most successful seasons, we’ve done really well in “The Pit” (Courts 4, 5, 6) and its nice to know that you’re going to be competitive and favored to win on those courts. I think that adding depth to a roster really helps to win championships. Q: How do you attack playing in a conference like the SEC? Wallace: It’s a grind, but it’s a fun grind. It’s the best conference in college tennis. You have to bring it every single time that you go out to the courts and there are no weekends off, but that’s what makes it exciting. You know you’re going to put in a hard day’s work and earn everything you get, but at the end of the season if you’re fortunate enough to come out on top, you know that you went through the ultimate grind and had that success that you dreamed about at the beginning of the year.

Q: Former UGA men’s tennis standout and Alabama women’s tennis assistant coach Drake Bernstein joined the program this year as the assistant coach. What’s it been like working with him so far? Wallace: Drake’s been fantastic. He’s really engaged and has done a great job. His enthusiasm is contagious. He’s a true Bulldog. He played here and now he’s out there coaching and wants these ladies to have the same experience that he had when he was here. We’re fortunate to have him, and I’m excited to see him continue to progress as a coach.

Head Coach Jeff Wallace
JEFF WALLACE Head Coach 28th Season
As the nation’s winningest active women’s tennis coach, Jeff Wallace has built the Georgia Bulldogs in to one of the elite college programs that both wins and plays host to NCAA Championships. The 2013 season marks his 28th year with the Bulldogs. In 2009 following another memorable campaign when Georgia advanced to its 10th NCAA Final Four, Wallace became the first person to ever be named the Intercollegiate Tennis Association National Coach of the Year four times. The 2010 season featured Chelsey Gullickson winning the NCAA singles title at the Dan Magill Tennis Complex. The past two years, Georgia has finished the year ranked in the top eight after reaching the quarterfinals of the NCAA Championships.
Proven Winner
During his tenure, Wallace’s squads have claimed two NCAA championships, three USTA/ITA National Team Indoor titles and seven Southeastern Conference crowns. A four-time National Coach of the Year recipient and four-time SEC Coach of the Year, Wallace’s career record entering the 2013 season is 583-146. His .800 winning percentage is the best among active Division I coaches with a minimum of 500 victories. Wallace’s teams are the picture of consistency. With the 2012 NCAA bid, Georgia has appeared in 26 straight NCAA Tournaments and has advanced to the “Final Four” 10 times. Only once during his time as coach of the Bulldogs has the team missed the NCAA Tournament, and that was his first year back in 1986.
Playing/Coaching Career
A 1985 graduate of the University of Georgia, Wallace capped his playing career under legendary Bulldog head coach Dan Ma-
gill in 1984 after winning the SEC singles title at the No. 6 spot. The very next season, his first as coach of the Bulldogs, Wallace led a struggling team up the path of respectability by posting a 20-9 mark and landing a spot in the final Volvo Tennis/ITCA Top 25 poll. In 1987, just two years removed from a losing record, Georgia advanced to the national championship match. Although they didn’t win it that year, the Bulldogs would have their day.
1994 NCAA Champions
GEORGIA SUCCESS UNDER WALLACE ENTERING 2013 1994 and 2000 NCAA Team Championships
1994, 1995 and 2002 USTA/ITA Indoor Team Titles Bulldogs have won Eight Grand Slam Titles Two HONDA Award winners for Tennis One College Tennis Player of the Year Three National Senior-of-the-Year selections 27 Bulldog All-Americans honored 89 times 49 Bulldogs on the SEC Academic Honor Roll 84 times 38 Bulldogs selected to the All-SEC First Team 82 times
The 1994 season ranks as one of the most dominant ever in women’s tennis history. It found Georgia on the champion’s pedestal in every major team tournament possible: NCAA Champions, USTA/ITA National Team Indoor Champions, and SEC regular season and tournament champions. Top that all off with a 27-2 overall record including a perfect 14-0 SEC mark and a season sweep of arch-rival Florida and it’s easy to see why Wallace was named coach of the year.
2000 NCAA Champions
The 2000 Bulldogs went 27-2, winning the Southeastern Conference title and the NCAA National Championship. In the title match on the campus of Pepperdine, Georgia dethroned the defending champion Stanford Cardinal 5-4, snapping a 48-match winning streak. Wallace was named the Wilson/ITA National Coach of the Year.
USTA/ITA National Team Indoors
Under Wallace, the Bulldogs have been among the most successful teams at the USTA/ ITA National Team Indoor Championships. The annual event attracts the nation’s finest programs. The Bulldogs have won the title three times (1994, 1995, 2002) and have reached at least the semifinals 14 times.
Developing Talent
His record for developing players and having them maximize their potential has been
4 | Georgia Women’s Tennis | 2013
evident throughout his tenure. For example, Agata Cioroch arrived from Poland in 2001 and played No. 5 for the Bulldogs as a freshman. Two years later, she became Georgia’s top talent and in 2004 was the No. 1-ranked player in college tennis for much of the season. Cioroch concluded her career as a five-time All-American with two grand slam singles titles. Strong doubles teams are a key component for a successful college tennis team. There have been six Bulldog tandems under Wallace to finish the season ranked No. 1. Georgia tennis has thrived under Wallace. While the depth of talent can vary each season, the results remain consistent. This was no more evident than in 2002. Despite having only one player earn All-America honors, Georgia went undefeated during the regular season, won the USTA/ITA National Team Indoor title, the
Head Coach Jeff Wallace SEC championship and advanced to the NCAA “Final Four.” The 2002 squad finished with a 26-2 record and final national ranking of No. 3. Georgia went 13-0 at home and extended its home winning streak to 50 straight. In 2009, two of Georgia’s top players were freshmen: Chelsey Gullickson and Nadja Gilchrist, and by the end of the year they had earned All-America honors. Gullickson was named the ITA National Rookie of the Year, advanced to the NCAA Singles semifinals and tied a school record with 69 combined wins. Gullickson and Gilchrist became the first freshmen in school history to play No. 1 doubles in the lineup.

In 2010, the pair earned All-America honors again and Gullickson became the second Bulldog to win an NCAA singles title in Athens under Wallace and the third overall in the history of the program. She would finish her career in 2012 as the school’s first ever eight-time All-American and own the record for victories. Meanwhile, Lauren Herring became the fourth Bulldog under Wallace to be named SEC Freshman of the Year and the sophomore All-SEC tandem of Maho Kowase and Lilly Kimbell posted a school record of their own by going 22-0 at No. 3.
Success in Wallace Era
In 23 of the past 27 seasons, Georgia has finished with a top 10 national ranking including No. 1 in 1994 and 2000. In the Wallace era, seven Bulldogs have won grand slam titles, two have won the Honda-Broderick Award/tennis, 27 Bulldogs have earned All-America honors 89 times, and 49 different Bulldogs have been listed on the SEC Academic Honor Roll.
Family
A native of Portland, Ore., Wallace is married to the former Sabina Marie Horne. They have two children, Brittany Sabina (24) and Jarryd Jeffrey (22). Brittany is a graduate of Valdosta State and working in Atlanta while Jarryd is training full-time as a sprinter for the U.S. Paralympic Team. Jarryd competed in the 2012 Paralympics in London. In November of 2011, Jarryd captured a gold medal in the 100m race at the Parapan American Games in Mexico as a member of the United States Paralympic Team.

In 1995, the second team consisted of all doubles honorees (by position and at-large). In 2006, the format was changed again, removing distinctions between singles and doubles.

INDIVIDUAL SEC CHAMPIONS
(Only Named from 1980-81, ’84-’89) Note: There were no SEC individual champions in 1982, ’83 and 1990-present, since the championship tournament followed a dual match format in those years.

Endowments ENDOWMENTS ENSURE FUTURE OF 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 long-term 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 whose honor the scholarship is named. A full scholarship is endowed through a gift of $150,000. There are four women’s tennis scholarship endowments including one established by the UGAAA in honor of the 2000 team which won both the NCAA and SEC titles. For more information about the Athletic Scholarship Endowment Program or other giving opportunities, please contact the UGAA Development office at (877) 423-2947. Leighton Ballew Scholarship Endowment Maho Kowase is the 2012-13 recipient of the Leighton Ballew tennis scholarship. It is awarded annually to an international student-athlete who has demonstrated commitment to the University in an outstanding manner, both in the classroom and on the court. If no international student-athlete exists, selection of a student-athlete recipient is based on the aforementioned criteria. The late Mr. Ballew was a UGA faculty member for 40 years and founded the drama department. 1999: Vanessa Castellano 2000: Zoë Mellis 2001: Aarthi Venkatesan 2002: Tina Hojnik 2003-04: Agata Cioroch

Barbara Hartman Howell Scholarship Endowment Lauren Herring is the 2012-13 recipient of the Barbara Hartman Howell tennis scholarship. It is awarded annually to a scholar-athlete on the women’s tennis team who has a stated purpose of graduating. The scholarship was established by Barbara Hartman Howell’s lifelong friends Vickie Pruitt Farmer and Leon Farmer, Jr. for her many years of dedication to and love of the Georgia Athletic Association and in memory of her daughter, Amanda, who passed away suddenly on July 22, 2007 at the tender age of 26. Vickie and Barbara graduated from Athens High School Class of 1969 and were Phi Mu sorority sisters at UGA. 2009-12: Nadja Gilchrist

Originally from Calhoun, Doyle graduated from the University’s School of Pharmacy in 1950 and was a pharmacist in Lynchburg, Va., for 36 years. 2002: Mariel Verban 2003: Anne Nguyen 2004: Agata Cioroch 2005-06: Caroline Basu 2007-09: Kelley Hyndman

Vickie Farmer Scholarship Endowment As natives of Athens, Ga., Vickie and Leon Farmer have been enthusiastic supporters of the Bulldog sports program for many years. Graduates of the University of Georgia, Vickie (AB ’73) and Leon (BBA ’64 and JD ’67) have fully funded multiple scholarships for studentathletes in 12 different Bulldog sports. A women’s tennis student-athlete received one of these endowments in 2006 (Shadisha Robinson) and 2007 (Natalie Frazier). Doris Marie Ramsey Scholarship Endowment Established by the late Bernard B. Ramsey in honor of his beloved wife, Doris Marie Ramsey, this endowment creates 10 athletic scholarships, continuing the legacy of the Ramsey name. These scholarships benefit two scholar-athletes in football, two in other men’s sports, two in women’s sports, and four pursuing post-graduate educations at UGA. Women’s tennis standout Alexandra Smith was a recipient of one of these scholarships from 2002-04.
