TABLE OF CONTENTS 1

GEORGIA EQUESTRIAN Jere W. Morehead University President Jere W. Morehead became the University of Georgia’s 22nd President on July 1, 2013. Prior to becoming President, he served UGA in many key administrative roles, including Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs and Provost, Vice President for Instruction, and Associate Provost and Director of the Honors Program.

President Morehead is the Meigs Professor of Legal Studies in the Terry College of Business, where he has held a faculty appointment since 1986. He is a co-author of several books and book chapters, including The Legal and Regulatory Environment of Business, and he has published scholarly articles on legal topics ranging from export controls to jury selection. He has served as editor-in-chief of the American Business Law Journal and previously held several other editorial board positions with the ABLJ. President Morehead has received several university-wide teaching awards, including the Josiah Meigs Award—UGA’s highest honor for teaching excellence—the Richard B. Russell Award for Excellence in Undergraduate Teaching, the Teacher of the Year Award in the Terry College of Business, and the Lothar Tresp Outstanding Honors Professor Award. He also received the Distinguished Service Scroll Award, the Law School Alumni Association’s highest honor, and has been included in Georgia Trend’s list of Most Influential Georgians for two consecutive years.

President Morehead is the first alumnus of UGA to be named President in more than forty-five years. He received his law degree (J.D.) from the University of Georgia in 1980 and served as an Assistant United States Attorney with the Department of Justice from 1980 to 1986.

Greg McGarity J. Reid Parker Director Of Athletics Athens native and University of Georgia graduate Greg McGarity was named Director of Athletics at UGA on August 13, 2010, after serving 18 years in the athletic department at the University of Florida.

Since that time, McGarity has emphasized exploring new ideas and initiatives designed to move the organization forward in all areas of competition, academics, service, and exceptional experiences for student-athletes and supporters.

McGarity oversees a 21-sport athletics program supported by a budget of $123 million. Since he became Director of Athletics, UGA teams have won national championships in women’s swimming and diving (2013, 14, ‘16) and equestrian (2014) and SEC championships in men’s tennis (2011, ’13, ‘14, ‘15, ‘16), men’s tennis SEC Tournament (2012 and 2013), women’s tennis (2013), women’s tennis SEC Tournament (2014), women’s swimming and diving (2011, ’12, ’13, ’14, and ‘15), equestrian (2015), and two SEC eastern division titles in football (2011 and 2012). During McGarity’s tenure as AD, 18 different Georgia teams have been ranked in the nation’s top 20 and 10 in the top ten.

Georgia’s standing in the Learfield Directors’ Cup, which annually measures athletic teams success in NCAA championships, has improved from 20th in 2011 to 10th in 2013 and is consistently in the top 20.

McGarity has also been a standard bearer for academic achievement.

Since his arrival, Georgia student-athletes have been the recipients of 14 NCAA Post Graduate Scholarships, 28 CoSIDA Academic All-American awards, three NCAA Top Ten honors, three SEC Boyd McWhorter SEC Scholar-Athletes of the Year, and two SEC Brad Davis Community Service Awards. In the last six years, UGA has three winners of the SEC Boyd McWhorter Scholar-Athlete of the Year Award, two winners of the SEC Brad Davis Community Service Award, and one SEC Sportsmanship Award winner.

In addition, McGarity has been at the forefront of facility expansion and renovation. The construction of the new Indoor Athletic Facility adjacent to the Butts-Mehre Building is scheduled for completion in January, 2017, and will provide a facility for use by multiple sports. A new soccer stadium, football locker rooms at Sanford Stadium, and a Stegeman Coliseum center-hung scoreboard are projects on the current drawing board. Other recent projects include a $12 million Foley Field (baseball) facility renovation, and new scoreboards/ video boards at baseball, softball and soccer. New sound systems in Stegeman Coliseum and Sanford Stadium have also been installed to improve the fan experience.

GEORGIA EQUESTRIAN

2017-18 Georgia Equestrian TODAY. TOMORROW. TOGETHER.

The No. 2 Georgia equestrian team looks to continue its legacy of being one of the best programs in the country in the 2017-18 campaign. After finishing the regular season with a 9-4 record, the team was crowned SEC Champions, NCEA Reserve National Champions, and hit 150 wins in program history. This year’s roster includes several All-American and All-SEC selections, as well as a freshman class with impressive resumes, adding depth to the Georgia lineup.

I am so impressed with the talent and the work ethic shown in order to build off of last season,” head coach Meghan Boenig said.

“This group of individuals and the leadership within it knows the pace to set and have already set it. We are excited about the good things to come.”

Hunt Seat Though Georgia lost its most decorated Bulldog with the graduation of Meg O’Mara along with standout Liza Finsness, the Hunt Seat squad returns several familiar faces to the ring. SEC Freshman of the Year for both Equitation on the Flat and Equitation Over Fences, Sydney Hutchins returns for both Hunt Seat events. Senior Addy Cord and Maddy Newman return to the Flat lineup, while senior Meghan Flanagan and junior Emma Mandarino return for Fences.

Sophomore Maddy Darst also returns for the Bulldogs and received the highest score amongst returners for Equitation Over Fences.

Western Two All-Americans return to the arena, including Junior Graysen Stroud, who was a second team selection for Reining, and Bailey Anderson, a second team selection for Horsemanship.

Georgia returns two starters on the Reining squad with senior Kyndall Harper and Stroud leading the way. Annabeth Payne made her starting lineup debut last season against Delaware State, edging her opponent 66.566 to earn her first point for Georgia.

The full Horsemanship squad, who rode to a 9-5-3 record last season, will return for the Bulldogs. The group combined for 42 points and eight MOP honors.

In what promises to be another exciting season for the Bulldogs, Georgia will face the three other teams that advanced to the semifinal round of the National Collegiate Equestrian Association (NCEA) National Championship at the conclusion of last season.

The schedule includes 13 regular-season competitions, including six against Southeastern Conference teams. The 2018 SEC Championship will be held March 30-31 in Blythewood, South Carolina. The season will conclude April 18-21 at the NCEA Championship in Waco, Texas.

In January of 2009, Georgia riders moved into their spacious new home, the UGA Equestrian Complex, located in Bishop, Ga. The 109-acre farm offers Georgia the finest in equine accommodations. Formerly known as High Point Farm, the facility served the Athens-area equine community with boarding and training facilities since 1993. In 1996, High Point was selected as the training site for the U.S. Dressage Team, which competed in the Summer Olympic Games at the International Horse Park in Conyers, Ga. The Bulldogs have a true home-ring advantage, boasting an impressive 26-4 regular-season dual-meet record at the UGA Equestrian Complex.

Georgia is no stranger to a home-ring advantage, owning a 54-2 all-time record at home. Prior to moving to its home in Bishop, Ga., the Georgia equestrian team shared more than 100 acres with the Animal Science Arena, just minutes from Georgia’s main campus.

The University of Georgia Athletic Association is committed to being the nation’s premier NCEA equestrian program, in both competition and facilities. Plans are in the works to expand the UGA Equestrian Complex to include a 60-stall barn, a fan plaza, a covered arena and two all-purpose arenas.

During her time with the Bulldogs, Boenig has led the program to unprecedented heights including six National Titles, six Southern Equestrian Championships, six reserve championships, two Southeastern Conference titles, and a 61-4 dual-meet regular season record at home. Boenig also helped lead the charge of restructuring Varsity Equestrian to the National Collegiate Equestrian Association in the fall of 2011.

Three-time SEC Coach of the Year, Boenig and her team finished the 2016-17 season as SEC Champions and NCEA Reserve National Champions after riding to a 9-4 regular season record. Under Boenig’s direction, Meg O’Mara was named SEC Rider of the Year and Sydney Hutchins was named SEC Freshman Rider of the Year for both Hunt Seat events. Georgia had four riders claim six spots on All-SEC teams and five riders earned seven NCEA All-America honors.

For the 2016-17 season, the Bulldogs finished second as hosts of the 2016 SEC Equestrian Championships and went on to finish tied for third at the NCEA National Championship. Five riders were named SEC Rider of the Year and one earned AllChampionship Team honors at the SEC and NCEA Championships for Equitation on the Flat.

Georgia claimed the Southeastern Conference Championship with Boenig at the helm during the 2014-15 season. It was the program’s first ever-SEC title since the sport was adopted by the conference in 2013. At the SEC championship, Boenig had two riders named to the SEC All-Championship team. The Bulldogs then rode to a reserve

Under Boenig, Georgia put eleven riders on All-SEC teams and claimed six of a possible eight SEC Rider of the Year honors. Boenig also had seven riders earn NCEA All-America honors and 13 named to NCEA Academic All-America Teams. At the national championship, Boenig saw two riders earn Most Outstanding Player awards and three riders named to the NCEA All-Championship team.

During the 2013-14 season, Boenig led the Georgia equestrian team to the program’s sixth National Championship. After finishing the regular season with a 9-3 dual-meet record, the Georgia equestrian team earned a second-place finish at the Southeastern Conference Championship. Under Boenig, seven riders were named to the All-SEC teams, two freshman selected to the SEC All-Freshman team and two riders were named as the SEC Riders of the Year. Under her guidance, six riders landed seven spots on NCEA All-American teams, while 12 earned a place as NCEA Academic All-Americans and another 19 were named to the NCEA Academic Honor Roll. Boenig also saw two riders crowned as the Most Valuable Players of the NCEA Championship, as well as three riders named to the NCEA All-Championship team.

Boenig is a 1999 graduate of Berry College where she earned her Bachelor’s Degree in Biology. Prior to her arrival at Georgia in October of 2001, she spent two years as an assistant coach at Texas A&M during which time she also earned a Master’s Degree in Animal Science.

Her two seasons at Texas A&M were deciding factors in her hiring as the Bulldogs’ inaugural head coach. Georgia sought a coach with the knowledge of working hand-in-hand with a university’s Animal Science community in forging a new equestrian team, something the Aggies had enjoyed during her tenure there.

A native of Powder Springs, Ga., the former Meghan Nolan is married to Markus Boenig. They are proud parents of two sons, Josef and Mathew.

2016-17 Season Recap The Georgia equestrian team was crowned SEC Champions, NCEA Reserve National Champions, and hit 150 wins in program history during the 2016-17 season.

The Bulldogs began and finished the 2016-17 campaign ranked as the No. 2 team in the country, after riding to a 13-5 overall record.

The Bulldogs went 4-3 in the fall, dropped one meet to begin the spring schedule, then went on a five-meet win streak to conclude the regular season, defeating all three SEC opponents in that time frame.

Georgia received the No. 1 seed for the SEC Championship and topped South Carolina, 13-7, to advance to the final round to face Auburn for a rematch of the 2016 championship. Tied at eight points each with three rides remaining, Georgia defeated Auburn, 10-9, to claim the championship title. It is the second title for the Bulldogs since the sport was officially sponsored by the SEC in 2013.

As the No. 2 seed, the Bulldogs advanced to the championship round of the NCEA National Championship by defeating Fresno State and Auburn, before falling to Texas A&M in the finals.

“This has been an incredible season with so many improvements across the board,” head coach Meghan Boenig said. “The leadership within the team to ‘Out Work. Out Ride.

Out Last.’ has been something very special. I’m so proud of this team’s accomplishments and how we finished the season.

This builds an incredible framework for our program for next year. Of course it’s always hard to say goodbye to our seniors, but we’re excited about welcoming a very strong freshman class for next year. We grew throughout the year and I hope to maintain that growth going forward into next season.”

Georgia riders earned a combined total of 38 MOP honors on the season with senior Meg O’Mara leading the way in Equitation on the Flat and Equitation Over Fences, earning six honors in each event.

The Bulldogs picked up four SEC and three NCEA Rider of the Month honors. O’Mara earned SEC Rider of the Month once for her performances in Equitation Over Fences and twice for Equitation on the Flat. Claudia Spreng picked up honors after her performances in Reining during the month of February.

NCEA FAQs

History

Can NCEA teams only compete NCAA? No, schools that are a member of the NCEA are permitted to compete in both the NCAA-NCEA head to head format and IHSA (club) competitions.

However, universities can only compete in one National Championship event.

The competition format is a head-to-head, where a rider from each team competes on the same horse. The rider earning the highest score on that particular horse wins the point for their team. At the end of the competition, the team with the most points wins the competition. The horse and rider match-up is determined by a random draw. Prior to their competition ride each competitor is given a four-minute warm-up (five minute for Reining) to familiarize themselves with the horse and prepare for their competition ride.

This format of competition was developed to level the playing field between riders and to allow each rider the same opportunity on the same horse. There is only one elite level of competition for the four events.

How many women are on a team?

There is no roster size limit. The teams range from 15 to 85 girls. The average team has about 46 members.

How many coaches are there?

There can be anywhere from 1-3 coaches. Some teams also have volunteer coaches that are designated by the team, one western and one hunt seat for the whole season.

Where do the teams practice?

Practice and competition facilities can be owned by the athletics department or can be multiple use facilities on campus partnered with the Agriculture or Animal Science Department. Some programs lease a private facility.

Who provides the horses?

Most programs have their own string of horses for the team to practice and compete on. These horses have been donated, purchased, or are leased for the competition season.

Typically how many competitions are there?

Teams can have up to 15 dates of competition, not including conference or national championships.

Competitions that last more than one day, or tournaments can be considered 1 date, up to 5 times.

What does it cost to run an Equestrian Team?

Annual operating budgets can range from $100,000 to $450,000, depending on the size of your program.

The average cost per student athlete is $3,000 to $7,000.

What about grades?

The average equestrian GPA is 3.2 Are there scholarships?

The sport of Equestrian can offer up to 15 scholarships per team. The NCAA defines Equestrian as an equivalency sport, allowing the scholarships to be divided amongst the team.

In 1998, Equestrian was classified as an NCAA emerging sport. At that time there were six participating teams (Auburn, Fresno State, Georgia, Oklahoma State, South Carolina and Texas A&M). Today there are currently 24 colleges and universities offering Equestrian as a varsity sport and more continue to add the program each year.

The National Collegiate Equestrian Association (formerly Varsity Equestrian) was created to advance the sport of Equestrian from emerging to championship status with the NCAA by promoting the benefits of Equestrian to potential institutions, riders, parents, horse industry professionals and sponsors while developing the rules and format of competition.

The National Collegiate Equestrian Association Championships (NCEAC) is currently held in Waco, Texas. 12 hunter seat and 12 western teams are invited to compete. The NCEA Selection Committee invites these teams based on their win/loss record throughout the season. The NCEAC is made possible with the help of generous sponsors, volunteers and donors of current universities and local horse trainers that contribute competition horses, tack and horse transport. Two nationally recognized and carded judges in both Hunter Seat and Western travel to Texas to judge the four days of competition. More than 200 student-athletes from across the country compete at the Championships.

Many people within the horse industry have united together to advance the sport of Equestrian to full NCAA championship status. In order to attain this goal and hold a NCAA sponsored Equestrian National Championship, there must be 40 Division I/II schools that sponsor Equestrian at their institution.

Mission

• To provide amateur equestrian student-athletes the opportunity to compete in a collegiate national championship event • To promote for equal collegiate opportunities for female athletes through collegiate level equestrian competition • To assist in the development of amateur equestrian student-athletes through collegiate level equestrian competition • To promote the advancement of Equestrian from emerging to championship status with NCAA • To generate growth of and interest in Equestrian activity via the marketing, promotion and publicity of sport benefits to universities, riders, prospective studentathletes, parents, horse industry professionals and sponsors • To support the enhancement of participating institutions who offer varsity level collegiate equestrian programs • To preserve the integrity of the sport through ongoing rule and format development

Can Student-athletes receive course credit?

Some Universities will offer class credit for participation

ABOUT THE NCEA 25

GEORGIA EQUESTRIAN

Key Terms in Equestrian Crop

A short whip used in riding, used only as an aid to reinforce the rider’s leg.

Diagonals

The correct posting, up/down motion, of the rider in sequence with diagonal movement of the horse’s legs at the trot.

Equitation / Horsemanship

In competitions, these indicate that riders are being judged on their ability to control and show the horse while maintaining the correct riding position. Riders have the added challenge of riding an unfamiliar horse, one that they draw for in a lottery system just before their event.

Equitation Over Fences

An individual performance where each rider shows a horse over 8-10 jumps approximately three feet high. Riders are judged on their ability to position the horse correctly at the jumps and avoid interfering with the horse’s balance, while maintaining the correct riding position and producing a smooth, polished performance.

Figure Eight

Two circles connected by a change of direction, most often seen in Reining patterns.

Gait

Three ways — canter/lope, trot/jog, or walk — by which a horse can move by lifting the feet in different order or rhythm.

Horsemanship

Refers to an event in Western discipline which is judged on a predetermined pattern consisting of several maneuvers is performed by each rider. The rider’s overall position and effectiveness in the saddle are major factors in scoring.

Hunt Seat

The category of Equitation English riders compete in, whose foundation lies in jumping and riding across country, such as foxhunting.

Leads

They are determined at the canter/lope by which front foot is leading. Correct leads have the inside foreleg reaching furthest.

Natural Aids

Body signals from the seat, legs, hands and voice to communicate commands to the horse, all the while appearing comfortable, relaxed and balanced. These signals should be subtle or imperceptible to the judge and spectators and exaggerated shifting of the rider’s weight is not desirable. The resulting performance shown by the horse is not to be considered more important than the methods used by the rider in obtaining them.

26 ABOUT NCEA EQUESTRIAN

NCEA Meet Format and Scoring Dual-Meet Format The National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) classifies Equestrian as an “emerging” sport. Until 2003, all collegiate equestrian shows were conducted under the auspices of the Intercollegiate Horse Show Association (IHSA). Georgia riders departed from that format for the 200304 season. Since then, they have competed in the dual-meet format governed by proposed NCAA rules set forth in the biannual equestrian coaches meetings hosted by the United States of America Equestrian Federation.

Teams compete in four events at each dual meet: English Equitation Over Fences, English Equitation, Western Horsemanship and Western Reining. In each event a minimum of four athletes from each team ride head-to-head on the same set of horses, which are provided by the host school. Riders are assigned to the horse in a random draw and face the challenge of riding an unfamiliar horse after a brief timed warm-up period. A point is earned when a rider’s score is higher than their opponent riding the same horse.

General Scoring Hunt Seat riders are scored on a scale of 1-100.

There are nine maneuvers each worth 10 points, plus an overall score worth 10 points, to total 100 possible points per ride. Maneuvers are scored on this scale: 10=Excellent; 9=Very Good; 8=Good; 7=Fairly Good; 6=Satisfactory; 5=Sufficient; 4=Insufficient; 3=Fairly Bad; 2=Bad; 1=Very Bad; 0=Not Executed. Scores usually range from 70-85, depending on the judge. Western riders are scored on a 70-point scale. There are a minimum of eight maneuvers which are scored on the following scale: +1.5=Excellent, +1=Very Good, +.5=Good, 0=Correct, -.5=Poor, -1=Very Poor, -1.5=Extremely Poor. Scores range from 68 to 74. Horsemanship and English Equitation riders are judged on their ability to control and show the horse while maintaining the correct riding position. Riders in Equitation Over Fences are judged on their abil-

Reining

ity to position the horse correctly and not interfere with its balance while maintaining the correct riding position for a smooth, polished performance.

Reiners are judged for precision and application of natural aids as they execute intricate maneuvers at varying speeds.

English Equitation Over Fences Each rider jumps the same predetermined course, usually consisting of eight to 10 jumps that are approximately 3-feet high. The judge is looking at the rider’s position, consistency of pace and accuracy of leads, turns and distances executed to produce a smooth, polished performance.

English Equitation on the Flat A pattern consisting of nine maneuvers is performed within a rectangular-shaped arena marked by letters. Maneuvers are called for at specific letters and can be circles, transitions and serpentines among others. The judge is looking at the rider’s position and effectiveness at guiding her horse through the individual maneuvers.

Western Horsemanship A predetermined pattern consisting of several maneuvers is performed by each rider.

Consideration for scoring is based on the quality of those maneuvers, including pivots, stops, backs and circles, extensions at all gaits and consistency of pace. The rider’s overall position and effectiveness in the saddle are also major factors.

Western Reining In this event each rider rides the same preassigned pattern from memory, performing such maneuvers as spins, sliding stops, rollbacks and circles. The circles are either large and fast or small and slow.

The judge is looking for accuracy and correctness of maneuvers, correct speed for the maneuver being performed, the horse being willfully guided and overall quality of the Reining pattern.

Warm-Ups

In this class, Western riders perform an individual, pre-assigned pattern from memory, demonstrating a variety of stops, turns and maneuvers at various speeds. The emphasis on this class is on precision, technical application of natural aids and the rider’s ability to show unfamiliar horses.

Practice time before the classes, normally 4-5 minutes. The horses will be schooled, or prepared for competition using stretching and suppling exercises at various gaits, or practice jumps if necessary by riders who will not compete the day of the show.

Rollback

A smooth stop from the lope, in which the horse is supposed to balance on its back feet while the front feet continue to move.

A turn performed in Equitation Over Fences class to show control of the horse and rider’s ability to maintain a position throughout a turn. A tight turn performed between two Fences. In Western Reining, a rollback is a 180 degree pivot with speed after a halt.

About SEC Equestrian The Southeastern Conference adopted the sport of equestrian during the 2012-13 academic year. The four programs that currently comprise the SEC have a rich history of elite success in the sport.

The three schools of the formerly 12-member SEC have been contesting a yearly Southern Equestrian Championship since 2003, which in 2012-13 was replaced by the first-ever SEC Championship, involving all four schools.

Since the National Collegiate Equestrian Association began contesting a national championship in 2002, the only four programs to ever win a national championship in the sport of equestrian are the four members of the SEC: Auburn, Georgia, South Carolina and Texas A&M. The annual NCEA Championship is held in Waco, Texas, each year.

The Southern Equestrian Championships were held on campus sites on a rotating basis. Georgia won a league-leading six Southern Equestrian Championship titles, while Auburn captured three and South Carolina one.

Georgia has tallied a league-leading six overall national championships, including three consecutive from 2008-10 and most recently in 2014. Auburn and South Carolina both have three national titles, while Texas A&M each has two overall national titles.

The first-ever SEC equestrian meet was held on September 9, 2012 when Georgia hosted Texas A&M in Bishop, Ga. In March of 2013, the first-ever SEC Championship in the sport of equestrian was held in Auburn, Ala., with South Carolina taking home the inaugural trophy.

GEORGIA EQUESTRIAN

SOUTHEASTERN CONFERENCE • Since its formation in 1933, the SEC has directed and organized interscholastic athletic competitions, conducted tournaments and prescribed eligibility rules for studentathletes. The Conference also facilitates and assists its member institutions in maintaining intercollegiate athletic programs compatible with the highest standards of education and competitive sports.

• The Southeastern Conference crowns champions in 21 sports - 12 women’s sports and nine men’s sports. They include baseball, men’s and women’s basketball, men’s and women’s cross country, equestrian, football, men’s and women’s golf, gymnastics, soccer, softball, men’s and women’s swimming and diving, men’s and women’s tennis, men’s and women’s indoor and outdoor track and field, and volleyball.

• In the fall of 2012, the University of Missouri and Texas A&M University became the 13th and 14th members of the Southeastern Conference. It marked the first expansion for the SEC since 1991 and the second-ever increase for the league since its founding in 1933.

• The SEC’s mission statement reflects the priorities of the league. “The purpose of the Southeastern Conference is to assist its member institutions in the maintenance of programs of intercollegiate athletics which are compatible with the highest standards of education and competitive sports.”

ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENTS • The Southeastern Conference had 43 Capital One Academic All-Americans in 2016-17. The league had 24 student-athletes earn first-team honors. The Capital One Academic All-America Teams are voted on by the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA). The 43 student-athletes represent 13 of the SEC 14 schools while 10 schools had at least one person on the first-team. Since 2003, the SEC has had 329 student-athletes earn first-team Capital One Academic All-America status.

• The 24 SEC student-athletes who earned Capital One Academic All-America first-team status in 2016-17 were: Alabama’s Mackenzie Brannan (gymnastics), Alex Gholston (women’s track and field), Luke Kaliszak (men’s swimming and diving), Anton McKee (men’s swimming and diving), Keely McNeer (gymnastics) Connor Oslin (men’s swimming and diving), Pavel Romanov (men’s swimming and diving); Arkansas’ Brooks Ellis (football); Auburn’s Kasey Cooper (softball) and Cole Lipscomb (baseball); Florida’s Kelly Barnhill (softball), Canyon Barry (men’s basketball), Savannah Jordan (soccer), Alex McMurtry (gymnastics); Georgia’s Keturah Orji (women’s track and field) and Chantal Van Landeghem (women’s swimming and diving); Kentucky’s Danielle Galyer (women’s swimming and diving) and Kiah Seymour (women’s track and field); Ole Miss’

Aubrey Edie (volleyball) and Craig Engels (men’s track and field); South Carolina’s Paige Bendell (soccer) and Chelsea Drennan (soccer); Texas A&M’s Sarah Gibson (women’s swimming and diving); and Vanderbilt’s Simone Charley (Vanderbilt).

FOR THE STUDENT-ATHLETE • The SEC was the first conference in the nation to assemble a Student-Athlete Advisory Committee. Two representatives from each of the SEC member schools are selected to serve on the committee which meets twice a year to discuss issues of concern to the student-athlete.

• In May 2016, the SEC introduced new Student-Athlete Leadership Councils in the sports of Football and Men’s and Women’s Basketball in which, in addition to the Conference’s longstanding Student-Athlete Advisory Council, provide studentathletes with additional opportunities to engage with campus leaders and Conference office staff.

• One of Greg Sankey’s early actions as commissioner was to create a new position in the SEC office for a Director of StudentAthlete Engagement, with the focus on creating opportunities for current and former SEC student-athletes to participate in Conference leadership and prepare for life after their intercollegiate athletics participation concludes.

• Twenty-five current and former Southeastern Conference student-athletes participated in the first SEC Corporate Career Tour in Atlanta in 2016. The event was held in conjunction with the 2016 SEC Fall Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) meeting. The group visited the headquarters and met with executives and talent acquisition staff at several corporations in the Atlanta area including Chick-fil-A, Boys & Girls Club of America, CNN/Turner Broadcasting System and Jackson Spalding. The group also listened to presentations by Serviam Partners President Randy Hain, Growing Leaders, and former SEC student-athletes Ben Troupe and Josh Foliart on leadership and life after sports.

• The SEC conducts a New Coaches Orientation Program three times a year, which supplements institutional orientation programs and enhance the professional development of coaches.

Topics of discussion range from the role of the SEC and NCAA to the role of athletics in higher education.
