2012 Appalachian State Field Hockey 2012 Season Preview Appalachian State University field hockey brings a young team into its 2012 campaign, returning only eight players from last season. The Mountaineers will have 10 freshmen that round out the roster, as the team needs its young players to develop quickly. App State will look to improve on its 2-18 record and fourth place finish in the Northern Pacific Field Hockey Conference (NorPac) East Division last season. Brandi Alexander Kist enters her seventh season at the helm and will depend on leadership from her four seniors to help guide her young team. Dana Wetmore
DEFENSE Senior captain Casey Lammando anchors the backline for the Apps. The Hummelstown, Pa. native is the only returner who started all 20 matches for the Mountaineers last season, as she recorded one defensive save. Appalachian will also rely on Ball State transfer Laura Malinoski for her experience at the Division I level. Malinoski ranked sixth in the nation in defensive saves last year and ranked second for the Cardinals in goals scored.

2012 Mountaineer Field Hockey
GOALKEEPERS Senior Sarah Anderson is ready to take the top spot between the pipes for the Black and Gold this season. The Louisville, Ky. native saw playing time in seven matches last season, posting a .667 save percentage with 18 saves and nine goals against. OFFENSE The sophomore duo of Jessi Stuart and Dana Wetmore will be looked upon to lead the team offensively. Stuart, a Middletown Pa. native, led the team with five goals and three assists, while Wetmore, a Bethlehem, Pa. native, saw action in all 20 matches, starting 19 with two goals and two assists. Seniors Megan High, a Lancaster Pa. native, and captain Lesley Thomas, a Zimbabwe native, will use their experience to lead the team offensively. High recorded two goals last season after appearing in 17 matches, while Thomas appeared in 18 matches and will be an asset with her speed on offense. Junior Emily Knapp appeared in all 20 matches last season for the Apps, while sophomore Jordyn Warren seeks playing time after not seeing action in her freshman season.
Lesley Thomas
NEWCOMERS Appalachian State welcomes 10 freshmen to this year’s squad. Alexander Kist brings in seven forwards, two midfielders and one goalkeeper. McLean, Va. native, Lindsay Amador helped lead her team to a state championship in her sophomore season, scoring 13 career goals, while Anna Copsey was named allconference in her senior campaign, earning four varsity letters in field hockey for West Forsyth High School. Silver Spring, Md. native,Lane Flynn rounded out her prep career at James Hubert Blake with 24 goals and was named second team all-Burtonville Gazette, while Caroline Phillips, a Delmar, Del. native was named first team all-state two times and earned all-region accolades as a senior. The final three freshman forwards include Hanna French, Robbi Jensen and Kimberly Perkins. French is a native of Dayton, Ohio who led her conference in assists in both her junior and senior season, while Jensen was a four time all-conference honoree for Carlisle High School, earning allstate accolades three times. Perkins, a Lewisville, N.C. native was named conference player of the year as a senior and garnered all-state recognition. The Netherlands native, Amber Boot should provide a threat offensively for the Apps playing midfield, while Charlotte Kirwan, a Bethesda, Md. native scored eight goals in her senior year. Lone freshman goaltender Cristina Ceppi was a member of the U.S. Field Hockey National Futures Championship team twice and tallied a career-best 120 saves in her senior year, earning her honorable mention all-state recognition.

Head coach Brandi Alexander Kist enters her seventh season at the helm of Appalachian State’s field hockey program in 2012. During the 2011 campaign Alexander Kist coached one player to all-conference accolades, including Jessi Stuart who won four NorPac Rookie of the Week awards. In addition, the team picked up its first ever win at Radford on September 23. Her 2010 and 2009 squads posted a 5-14 and 6-15 records respectively, marking the most combined wins in two seasons since 2003 and 2004. Three Mountaineers earned all-NorPac honors in 2010, bumping her total number of honorees to nine in her tenure on the bench, and the total marked the most honorees since 2003. Another hallmark of Alexander Kist’s six previous squads at Appalachian has been excellence in the classroom. In six seasons at the helm, Alexander has had 75 NFHCA National All-Academic Team honorees, and recently posted a perfect 1000 multi-year Academic Progress Rate score for eligibility and retention of student-athletes.

In 2003, the Lions claimed the KIT Conference Championship and followed that in 2004 with an appearance in the Independent Schools Postseason Tournament. Alexander played collegiately at the University of Pennsylvania, where she was named the team’s Most Improved Player in 2001 and served as team captain in 2002. Alexander also participated with the University of Technology in Sydney, Australia. Alexander graduated from Pennsylvania with a bachelor’s degree in classical studies in 2003. She received a master’s degree in sports management from Lindenwood University in June 2005.

2012 Appalachian State Field Hockey Norpac Conference Founded in 1982, the eight-member NorPac Conference competes at the NCAA Division 1 level in field hockey. At the end of the 2001 season, two NorPac teams were ranked in the NCAA top 20. Entering the 2008 season, the NorPac Conference is comprised of seven teams, Appalachian State, California, Davidson, Longwood, Pacific, Radford and Stanford. After fulfilling NCAA reclassification requirements, Longwood became eligible for its first conference tournament in 2007 and hosted the 2008 NorPac Championship Tournament.
In July 2008, the conference announced the addition of UC Davis as its newest member. The Aggies became eligible to compete in a full conference schedule, including the NorPac tournament, in 2009-10. In 2012, all eight institutions will compete in the NorPac Conference Championship Tournament at Longwood. The NorPac Tournament Champion will advance to an NCAA play-in game against the winner of the America East Conference, with the winner advancing to the NCAA tournament.

2012 Appalachian State Field Hockey Academic Excellence Appalachian State University field hockey not only takes pride in its accomplishments on the field, but for the performance of its student-athletes in the classroom as well. The Mountaineer program has established a tradition of academic success, and its scholastic achievements over the past 16 years rival that of any program in the country. Since 1994, ASU has placed 155 studentathletes on the National Field Hockey Coaches Association (NHFCA) academic squad, including a record-tying 15 in 2011. And to be eligible for the squad, a student athlete must have a GPA of 3.30 or higher. The 2008, ‘09, and ‘10 squads were also honored with an NFHCA team award, in recognition of the team’s overall GPA above 3.0. Appalachian State University field hockey was honored in 2011-12 with an NCAA Public Recognition Award for its latest Academic Progress Rate (APR) score released by the NCAA. Teams honored by the NCAA earned multiple Academic Progress Report (APR) scores in the top 10 percent for the past four years. The most recent APR scores are multi-year rates based on the scores from the 2007-08, 2008-09, 2009-10, and 2010-11 academic years. ASU was one of eight Southern Conference institutions to have a team honored with the Public Recognition Award . The APR is designed to provide a real-time look at a team’s academic success each semester by tracking the academic progress of each student-athlete. The APR includes eligibility, retention and graduation in the calculation and provides a clear picture of the academic culture in each sport. High performing teams recieving awards posted APR scores ranging from 965 to a perfect 1000.

2012 Appalachian State Field Hockey Dr. jan Watson Field hockey was introduced at Appalachian State University in the fall of 1968. The first intercollegiate sport for the female population on campus, Appalachian’s field hockey program is one of the oldest in the state of North Carolina. The success of the field hockey program at ASU is a direct result of the hard work and dedication of Dr. Jan Watson. Dr. Watson served as head field hockey coach from the inaugural season in 1968 through 1972 and again from 1974 until 1983.
ASU placed 57 players on the Deep South All-Star team during Watson’s tenure.
Under Dr. Watson’s direction, ASU’s field hockey enjoyed an unparalleled level of success. In 15 years as head coach, she posted an impressive win-loss record of 157-65-32. Her 157 wins remain a school record.
Dr. Watson’s participation in college athletics goes far beyond her work at Appalachian. One of the most prominent advocates for the advancement of women’s athletics in the country, Watson co-founded the Deep South Field Hockey Association with Ruth Reid of Furman and also served as the association’s first president. Watson also served as treasurer of the Association of Intercollegiate Athletics for Women, which disbanded in 1983. Dr. Watson was inducted into the ASU Athletics Hall of Fame in 2008.

The Dr. Jan Watson Endowed Scholarship In 1993, the Women’s Field Hockey Endowment was founded to provide a venue by which former players, friends, and supporters of the program could assist with the program’s scholarship efforts. In 1997, the endowment was renamed the Dr. Jan Watson Endowment for Field Hockey in recognition of the contributions Dr. Watson has made to the Field Hockey program at ASU. Currently, the endowment has a cash value of over $42,000 with an additional $30,000 in pledges resulting from the University’s “Campaign for the Second Century”.

2012 Appalachian State Field Hockey Director of athletics Charlie Cobb In his seven years at Appalachian State University, director of athletics Charlie Cobb has led the department to unparalleled success. The many achievements enjoyed by Appalachian athletics during Cobb’s tenure include: • Three NCAA Division I football national championships — marking the first time that any program has ever won three-consecutive NCAA Division I Football Championship Subdivision (FCS — formerly Division I-AA) titles and the first NCAA football championships ever won by a team from the state of North Carolina at any level. • Shattering football attendance records at Kidd Brewer Stadium with crowds surpassing “The Rock’s” permanent seating capacity for each of ASU’s 40 regular-season home games since Cobb’s arrival in 2005. • A 298-percent increase in football season-ticket sales. • Seven-consecutive Commissioner’s Cup championships — recognizing the top overall men’s sports program in the Southern Conference. • Three Germann Cup championships — recognizing the top overall women’s sports program in the SoCon. • Thirty-five percent of the athletics department’s students making the Academic Honor Roll (minimum GPA of 3.25). • Seven of 20 varsity programs (football, men’s basketball, men’s cross country, women’s cross country, field hockey, women’s indoor and outdoor track and field) earning public recognition awards, based on being among the nation’s top 10 percent in their respective sports based on Academic Progress Rate (APR) scores. • The Yosef Club, which provides scholarship and facility support for student-athletes, setting fundraising records each of the past seven years. Despite the state of the economy, the Yosef Club has reached the $2 million threshold for donations five years in a row. The record $2.72 million raised by the Yosef Club in 2011-12 is over $2 million more than Appalachian State athletics ever raised in any year prior to Cobb’s arrival. • Appalachian’s athletics annual budget increasing from $7.5 million in Cobb’s first year to nearly $14.5 million in 2012-13. The most visible of Cobb’s many achievements has been the addition of first-class facilities that will give Appalachian State the opportunity to be successful across the athletics spectrum for years to come. A wave of facility enhancements totaling $50 million were completed in 2009, headlined by the 120,000-square-foot Appalachian Athletics Center. The seven-story complex, located behind Kidd Brewer Stadium’s west stands, includes new football offices and locker room, a strength and conditioning center, training facilities, academic study space and computer lab for all ASU student-athletes, as well as premium seating in the form of 600 club-level seats and 18 luxury suites. The facility enhancements also included other significant renovations to The Rock. A new ticket plaza, which serves as a grand entrance to the stadium, as well as ornamental fencing that replaced the chain-link barriers that used to surround the stadium and field were completed before the 2007 season, while a 4,400-seat upper deck on the stadium’s east side and substantial upgrades to the east and south concourses were completed prior to the ‘08 campaign. In addition to the renovations at Kidd Brewer Stadium, the campaign also produced new homes for Mountaineer baseball (Jim and Bettie Smith Stadium), softball (Sywassink/Lloyd Family Stadium) and soccer (at the Ted Mackorell Soccer Complex), as well as the Apps’ first-ever indoor practice facility (Sofield Family Indoor Practice Facility) and renovations to Varsity Gym that have upgraded the facility to a premier practice and competition venue for ASU basketball, indoor track and field, volleyball and wrestling. With the $50 million in facilities enhancements, all 20 of Appalachian’s intercollegiate sports teams now practice and compete in facilities that have either been built or renovated since the turn of the millenium. While Cobb is quick to point out the “total team effort” put forth to achieve the many successes that have been enjoyed since he began his tenure as ASU’s director of athletics on July 1, 2005, it is the experience, vision and work ethic of the 44-year-old Cobb that has steered the Mountaineers to new heights. Cobb’s peers recognized him for his efforts when the National Collegiate Athletics Directors Association (NACDA) named him the NCAA Division I FCS Southeast Region Under Armour Athletics Director of the Year in 2011.
Division I Football committee that he currently chairs. Prior to his arrival in Boone, Cobb was a member of the athletics department at North Carolina State University from 1998-2005. A four-year football letterwinner at NC State from 1987-90, Cobb served as the Wolfpack’s senior associate athletics director for external operations for the seven years prior to his arrival in Boone. In that role, he oversaw NC State’s marketing, ticket operations, media relations and student-athlete development operations, as well as serving on the department’s compact strategic planning initiative, gender equity and facilities committees. During his tenure, NC State increased football season-ticket sales by 87 percent and men’s basketball season-ticket sales by 121 percent. The combined ticket revenues accounted for an annual increase of over 86 percent for Wolfpack athletics, generating more than $6 million for the department. In addition, Cobb served as NC State’s administrator for baseball and women’s soccer, tournament manager for the 2004 NCAA men’s basketball first and second rounds at the RBC Center and the chair for the southeast region of the NCAA women’s soccer committee. Prior to returning to his alma mater in ‘98, Cobb spent six years in Atlanta, Ga., where he held positions with the Atlanta Sports Council, the Chick-Fil-A Peach Bowl and the Georgia Dome. As an assistant executive director for the Atlanta Sports Council and the Peach Bowl, he helped coordinate Atlanta’s bid for the 2002 NCAA men’s basketball Final Four and handled all game and event operations for the Peach Bowl. As sales manager for the Georgia Dome from 1994-97, Cobb helped procure events such as the Southeastern Conference football championship, the SEC and Atlantic Coast Conference men’s basketball tournaments, NCAA men’s basketball championship events, Georgia High School Association football playoffs, major concerts and other college and amateur sporting events. Cobb graduated with honors with a B.A. in business administration from NC State in 1990. A second-team all-ACC honoree at center as a senior, Cobb was an academic all-ACC selection and collected the prestigious Jim Tatum Award, presented to the ACC football senior with the highest grade point average, and the Bob Warren Memorial Award, given to the Wolfpack football player that displays the highest integrity and sportsmanship. After receiving post-graduate scholarships from both the ACC and NFL Charities, Cobb earned a master’s degree in sports administration from Ohio University in 1992. Cobb is married to the former Lindsay Brecher, who was an all-ACC goalkeeper for NCSU women’s soccer from 1988-90 and serves as an assistant coach for Appalachian’s women’s soccer program. The Cobbs have a 14-year-old son, Harrison, and an 11-yearold daughter, Branan.
He also serves on numerous NCAA and Southern Conference committees, most notably the NCAA

Boone, North Carolina Boone lies in a small valley in the heart of the Southern Appalachians. It is named after the hunter and explorer Daniel Boone, who spent time in the region during the 1760s. Watauga County was formed in 1849 and the Town of Boone incorporated in 1872. Among its accolades are inclusion in National Geographic Adventure magazine’s “Best Places to Live and Play,” Norman Crampton’s “100 Best Small Towns in America,” USA Today’s “10 Great Small Towns with Huge Backyards” and U.S. News and World Report’s “10 Best Places to Retire in the U.S.” Boone is a college town, home to Appalachian State University. Originally Watauga Academy, the institution was formed to educate the mountain children and to ultimately prepare teachers for service through western North Carolina. It became Appalachian State Teachers College in 1929 and joined the University of North Carolina system in 1971. The university serves as a top economic driver followed by a combination of tourism, small business and residential home construction. The Boone area is characterized by mountain culture and casual living. Outdoor activities, cultural events, local dining and unique shops attract visitors from all over the world year-round. From breathtaking scenic views to Boone’s eclectic downtown area, known as King Street, there is something for everyone. One of the highlights of downtown Boone is the university’s Turchin Center for the Visual Arts. It features six gallery spaces and a community education and outreach program. Its exhibitions focus on a blend of recent and historically important artwork and feature nationally and internationally renowned artists as well as many of the finest artists of the region. A wide array of quality arts and cultural events enhance the Boone community. The university’s month-long celebration of performing and visual arts, known as An Appalachian Summer Festival, has brought notable performers such as Paul Taylor Dance Company, London City Opera, Charlie Daniels and the Glenn Miller Orchestra. During the academic year, Appalachian hosts the Performing Arts Series with artists such as Garrison Keillor and the National Symphony Orchestra. Boone offers an uncommon quality of life – that’s why many visitors come for a weekend and stay for a lifetime.

What’s Visible from Kidd Brewer Stadium
State’s Largest Wind Turbine – This community-scale, 100-kilowatt wind turbine stands 153 feet and feeds enough electricity directly to the grid to power 15 homes. It was paid for primarily through student funds and in partnership with the university-affiliated utility, New River Light and Power. Aside from producing clean energy, the turbine serves as an educational monument to Appalachian’s ethic of sustainability. Howard Knob – Located just a half mile from downtown Boone, this peak has an elevation of 4,420 feet. It was named for Benjamin Howard, a Revolutionary War loyalist who fled to a cave there to escape American patriots.
