Tennessee’s Best Having the largest undergraduate enrollment in the state and being named one of the top 100 public institutions in the nation doesn’t happen by accident. It’s the result of Middle Tennessee’s wide range of degree programs and the University’s commitment to provide students with the best possible educational value. The numbers prove that students are choosing to build their future at Middle Tennessee State University. Nearly 75% of entering freshmen list Middle Tennessee as their first choice.
The
most recent Forbes ranking lists Middle Tennessee as the leading public institution in the state and a top 50 “Best Buy.”

Academic
Enhancement The Student-Athlete Enhancement Center at MTSU houses the academic support system and the Blue Raider Athlete Skills for Success (B.R.A.S.S.) Life Skills Program for all 17 Division I-A sports. The center is housed at Johnny “Red� Floyd Football Stadium on Raider Drive. The facility opened its doors on January 4, 1999, to the delight of student-athletes, coaches, and administrators. Blue Raider student-athletes can take advantage of the library-like atmosphere as they report for study hall under the watchful eyes of director Todd Wyant, assistant director and coordinator of B.R.A.S.S. Wynnifred Counts, and assistants Debbie Carroll and Angel Nathan. The center consists of administrative offices, fully equipped individual and group tutoring rooms, a computer center, and spacious study carrels equipped with task lighting. Services provided by the center include help with registration and preregistration, help with study skills, and updates on NCAA legislation. The center uses an innovative objective study table program, which includes daily mentoring and constant tutoring. Tutors in various subjects are scheduled in the tutoring rooms throughout all hours of operation, and all tutoring takes place at the center. The SAEC staff is responsible for daily monitoring of the studentathletes progress, providing daily reports to coaches and meeting with each coaching staff weekly. The mission of the center is to help student-athletes take skills learned on the field and turn them into positive preparation for life after college. The center is also committed to meeting the changing needs of student-athletes. It continues to promote partnerships between the University, the NCAA, and the Murfreesboro community to help achieve its goals. In addition to providing the academic support needed to be successful in the classroom, the center is committed to meeting the needs of studentathletes in life skills development through the B.R.A.S.S. program. As B.R.A.S.S. coordinator, Counts is dedicated to helping prepare student-athletes for life after college. Blue Raiders volunteer, when possible, to help teachers and students at elementary and middle schools throughout Rutherford County during the academic year. In 2006, the athletic department began a mentoring program with the city schools in which student-athletes and coaches help tutor kids. In the spring of each year, Special Olympics at Middle Tennessee uses Blue Raider student-athletes to run each event. Career night and substance and alcohol abuse seminars are yearly, well-attended events. The Student-Athlete Enhancement Center is just one way that Middle Tennessee is helping to prepare student-athletes for life after college.

Making a Difference in
the Community
The Blue Raider volleyball team is involved in numerous community activities during the course of the academic year. The athletes participate in the Reading Raiders program, work with the Special Olympics, attend Career Day at various schools, help make up the B.R.A.S.S. program, and work with the Boys and Girls Club of Rutherford County. Reading Raiders began in 1993 and is designed to allow Middle Tennessee athletes the opportunity to give back to the community by getting involved in the lives of children. Within this program, Middle Tennessee athletes serve as role models and motivators, promoting the importance of reading and proper study skills to students in the Murfreesboro City Extended Schools Program. The B.R.A.S.S. program is another vehicle that encourages student-athletes to become involved in service activities. Through the program, Middle Tennessee hosts the Special Olympics each April. The athletes also visit area schools during the course of the year and read to the students. They also visit the Veterans Hospital each month to visit with patients and exercise with them. The Reading Raiders and B.R.A.S.S. programs are directed by Wynnifred Counts. In the months of June and July 2007, student-athletes teamed up with Habitat for Humanity to build a house for a family in Murfreesboro. They worked three-hour shifts to put the house together in different stages. In April 2006, a group of 60 student-athletes made up of mostly football and volleyball players traveled to Gallatin, Tenn., to volunteer their time to assist in cleanup efforts following a devastating tornado on April 7. The group worked for nearly three hours picking up debris and trying to salvage what was left near a farmhouse in Gallatin.
BLUE RAIDERS TEAM WITH CITY FOR MENTORING PROGRAM Middle Tennessee’s Athletic Department entered into a partnership agreement with Murfreesboro City Schools in May 2006 to provide each school with athletic teams to mentor, coach, and tutor students in assigned schools during the school year. The partnership is a continuation of the relationship formed by the City School Board and Middle Tennessee President Sidney McPhee. One of the basic goals for the partnership to provide creative mentoring for the student-athlete and the Murfreesboro City School student.

Health care is one of the most important aspects of a student-athlete’s life, and no university is more committed to keeping athletes healthy than Middle Tennessee. The Sports Medicine facility provides MTSU student-athletes with one of the finest athletic training facilities in the nation. Head Athletic Trainer Drew Shea and the Sports Medicine staff have set liberal hours to make sure each student-athlete has his or her needs met. The Sports Medicine facility opens at 6 a.m. each morning and doesn’t close until all student-athletes have been treated. The Sports Medicine facility contains a complete injury rehabilitation center, new rehab equipment, two full-size whirlpools, a dressing area for athletes, and a private office for the team physicians. In the summer of 2008, the facility added new Mondo Ramflex flooring which will provide a safe and healthy environment for the studentathletes. There is no waiting in the Sports Medicine facility since there are nine taping stations, multiple state-of-the-art modalities, and a new rehabilitation area. All of the equipment in the facility is top of the line. Athletes can use a full-stride treadmill, a stairmaster, and an exercise bike during their rehabilitation. One of the most recent additions to the equipment is a $15,000 K-Laser which helps speed up the healing process, enabling student-athletes to return to competition at a faster rate. The latest piece of equipment that aids the Sports Medicine staff is a new state-of-the-art computer system that tracks injuries, rehab protocols, medications, and surgeries. The new computer system allows each athletic trainer to keep student-athlete rehabilitation programs moving forward at as rapid a pace as possible. The facility also contains a fully stocked physician’s examination room for the resolution of any minor issues that a student-athlete have, which saves time for both studentathletes and staff. There is also a C-Arm portable X-Ray machine on site. Shea and his assistants each have an office in the Sports Medicine facility, and there is work space for the nine graduate assistants. Each office is self-contained, allowing private consultations with injured student-athletes.
Strength and
Conditioning

One of the biggest changes in college athletics over the past few years has been the attitude toward strength and conditioning. Performing in the weight room has become just as important as on-the-field competition, and Middle Tennessee has one of the very best staffs in the nation committed to making student-athletes the best they can be. It all happens in the Blue Raiders’ 10,000-plus square foot weight room facility located adjacent to the north end zone of Floyd Stadium and designed for use by all Middle Tennessee student-athletes. It is a strength training area that rivals any in the country. The weight room has been described by many people as better than any in the immediate area, including those at SEC and Conference USA schools. The facility, which opened in January of 1999, greets student-athletes with over 20,000 pounds of plates and dumbbells, but the sheer volume of weights is not the most impressive aspect of the room. It is equipped with nine full power racks, nine elevated platforms, and nine half-racks. Hammer strength equipment rounds out the room with five ground-base jammers, a dead lift, a leg press, a leg curl, and a leg extension. Other Hammer strength equipment in the facility includes a bench press, a military press, a rowing machine, neck machine, pull-up, and pull-over. An impressive array of dumbbells is also provided for the student-athletes’ use. Two sets each of dumbbells ranging from five to 150 pounds are kept on racks around the room. Mirrors ring the walls of the room to help student-athletes ensure that they are using proper form throughout their workouts. Cardiovascular equipment such as treadmills and stationary bikes are also available. Other state-of-the-art amenities may also be found in the weight room. A television with cable and a state-of-theart sound system has been installed for the enjoyment of the student-athletes. Three offices for the strength coaches are located in the facility, along with restrooms and a hospitality area. The weight room also provides direct access to the football stadium, gameday room, and individual meeting rooms and is in close proximity to the Blue Raider Practice Complex. The gameday room is used not only by the Blue Raider football team on game days and for film breakdown but also for press conferences, classes, and other functions. The meeting room is fully equipped with high-tech audio/visual equipment to enhance learning.

Before his appointment at TBR, McPhee served in various administrative capacities at several major universities including Oklahoma State University, University of Louisville, and University of Memphis. In May 2007, President McPhee received the title of Honorary Professor at China Agricultural University in Beijing, which is one of China’s top universities. The Honorary Professor title is the highest academic award given at the institution McPhee was named Outstanding American University President of 2002 by the American Football Foundation. In 2003, he was listed by Nashville Post business magazine as one of Tennessee’s 100 Most Powerful Individuals, and in 2004, he was ranked by Tennessee Business magazine as one of the Top 50 Most Powerful African Americans in the State of Tennessee. In 2006, Dr. McPhee was listed by the Chronicle of Higher Education as one of seven university presidents in the U.S. who is shaping intercollegiate athletics on a national scale. In the spring of 2009, President McPhee was the keynote speaker for Prairie View A&M Founder’s Day celebrations, and in June of that year, he was an invited participant at the International Agricultural University Presidential Forum held in Beijing and sponsored by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. In May of this year, Dr. McPhee presented a photo exhibition and lecture series, “China: A Decade through the Eyes of an American University President,” in four Chinese cities: Beijing, Hangzhou, Lanzhou, and Changsha. McPhee earned his bachelor’s degree (with highest honors, summa cum laude) from Prairie View A&M University; a master’s degree from the University of Miami, Coral Gables, Florida; and a doctorate in applied behavioral studies in education from Oklahoma State University. He is also a graduate of the Harvard University Management Development Program and has completed professional development programs at St. Mary’s University of San Antonio, Texas, and Colorado College in Colorado Springs, Colorado. As an academician, President McPhee’s scholarly publications and presentations are extensive. His publications have appeared in local, national, and international professional journals. In addition, he is the senior author of a book, Understanding the Campus Culture: An Introduction to College, and has co-authored a chapter for a major college textbook on academic advising. McPhee’s scholarly pursuits include several international visits and presentations in locations such as Beijing, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Lanzhou, Changsha, and Dunhuang, China; Mekelle, Ethiopia; Penang, Malaysia; Hong Kong; Moscow and St. Petersburg, Russia; Tokyo and Osaka, Japan; Seoul, South Korea; Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, Israel; Antwerp, Belgium; Montreal, Canada; Oxford, England; Rio de Janeiro, Brazil; and Nassau, Bahamas. McPhee participated as a member of NCAA’s Football Academic Working Group and chaired the NCAA Division I Working Group to Review “At-Risk” Student-Athlete issues (ARSA). The ARSA final report was submitted to the NCAA Board of Directors last year. McPhee also served a five-year term on the NCAA Division I Board of Directors, a three-year term on the NCAA Executive
10
Committee, and two terms as president of the Sun Belt Conference athletic league and chairman of the SBC’s CEO Executive Committee. In May 2005, he was appointed to the NCAA Presidential Commission on the Future of Intercollegiate Athletics. In 2002, President George W. Bush appointed him to the National Council for the Humanities, and the U.S. Senate confirmed him. A past member of the Rutherford County Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors, McPhee chaired its membership council. He is a member of the Murfreesboro Noon Rotary Club and serves as a member of the SunTrust Bank Board of Directors (Nashville) and SunTrust Regional Bank Advisory Board (Murfreesboro). He also served on the Nashville Adventure Science Center Board, the Middle Tennessee Medical Center Board, and the Middle Tennessee Council for Boy Scouts of America Executive Board and co-chaired the Tennessee Legislative Retreat Task Force on Higher Education. McPhee was recently re-elected to a second three-year term as a commission member of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools. During McPhee’s tenure at MTSU, the University has experienced considerable growth in many areas. Student enrollment has increased significantly, making MTSU undergraduate enrollment the largest in the state. During the past several years, the University added twelve new degree programs at the graduate and undergraduate levels. In 2002, for the first time in the history of the University, three Ph.D. programs were established: in Economics, English, and Human Performance. A Ph.D. in Public History was instituted shortly thereafter, and in July 2007, a new Ph.D. in Literacy Studies was approved. Recently, three additional Ph.D. programs were approved in Mathematics and Science Education, Molecular Biosciences, and Computational Science. From 2001 to 2009, the University increased extramural funding from $6 million to approximately $40 million. Since McPhee’s arrival, MTSU has been successful in raising admission standards, resulting in an increase in high-ability students. MTSU has been the institution of choice for midstate valedictorians and salutatorians in recent years and has enrolled a significant number of National Merit scholars and Achievement scholars. McPhee’s presidency has coincided with several major improvements in University facilities. A ten-year, $70 million renovation of all student residential housing is scheduled for completion by 2011, the University’s centennial year. In addition, the University acquired the 500-acre Guy James property to consolidate its highly regarded programs in the School of Agribusiness and Agriscience. This acquisition doubled the size of campus acreage from 500 to 1,000. Over $9 million was spent to renovate Andrew L. Todd Hall, which now houses the Department of Art and has state-of-the-art equipment for its students and faculty. The Paul W. Martin Sr. Honors Building was built with private funding. In January 2007, an addition to the Cason-Kennedy Nursing Building was opened and dedicated, bringing the facility to 28,000 square feet. In 2006, the University received $15 million in state support for the planning and infrastructure development for a proposed $140 million science building. In April 2007, a new $3 million track and soccer complex was opened and the University secured private gifts in support of a $6 million baseball stadium that was completed in 2008. A $19 million expansion of the Health, Wellness, and Recreation Center was also completed. Currently under construction is the $31.7 million College of Education building and the $70 million Student Union building, which is expected to be completed in 2011. In recent years, the University has been involved in proposed or active capital projects totaling nearly $400 million. President McPhee is married to Elizabeth McPhee, and they have two adult children, Seneca and Sidney-Anthony.
2010 BLUE RAIDER VOLLEYBALL
Middle Tennessee Volleyball
DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS
2010 BLUE RAIDERS
Chris Massaro • 6th year • Northern Colorado, 1983 The landscape of college athletics has changed drastically over the past decade and that renovation also has been demonstrated at Middle Tennessee, particularly during the four-plus years since Chris Massaro was named director of athletics on April 8, 2005. Proving to be a true visionary, Massaro has helped revolutionize the Blue Raiders’ Athletic Department while helping pave the way for even greater success in future years. During his short but highly successful reign, Massaro has overseen unprecedented success not only in the University’s athletic programs but also in regard to academic success, facility upgrades, and a proven record of hiring coaches who have thrived under his watch. Under Massaro’s leadership, the Blue Raiders have captured the Sun Belt’s all-sports trophy three times in five years. Since his arrival, Massaro has enhanced the Blue Raiders’ broad-based, 17-sport program. Among the accomplishments included in the last four years: • The Athletic Department has captured 18 Sun Belt Conference championships and earned 12 coach of the year honors. • The athletic program has had a record 15 nationally televised events during Massaro’s four-year tenure. • Middle Tennessee’s football team earned an at-large invitation to the Motor City Bowl in 2006, the first bowl appearance during the Division I era. • The women’s volleyball team reached the Sweet 16 for the first time in 2007. • The men’s golf team received its first-ever at-large invitation into the East Regional in 2008 and subsequently advanced to the national championship, where they finished 15th in the country. They backed up that effort with another NCAA regional in 2009. • The women’s basketball team appeared in back-to-back NCAA Tournaments in 2006 and 2007 and returned again in 2009. The team narrowly missed reaching the Sweet 16 in 2007 after earning a No. 5 seed. • The Middle Tennessee tennis doubles team of Marco Born and Andreas Siljestrom won the National Championship in 2007 – the first NCAA doubles title in Athletic Department history. • The Middle Tennessee track teams have combined for four conference titles, and the 2007 men’s outdoor squad finished No. 21 in the nation while the 2009 women’s indoor team ranked tied for 30th. • The Blue Raider baseball team captured the regular season and tournament championship in 2009 and advanced to the NCAAs. Massaro’s success at Middle Tennessee doesn’t stop with the athletic teams. There has been a tremendous track record for hiring quality coaches with head football coach Rick Stockstill, women’s head basketball coach Rick Insell, and men’s golf coach Whit Turnbow – and all Massaro hires – each earning Sun Belt Coach of the Year in their first seasons. Men’s tennis coach David McNamara won the Sun Belt and Coach of the Year honors in his second season. In all, Massaro’s guidance has provided coaches with the resources to produce 18 conference titles, 19 NCAA postseason appearances, one Sun Belt Conference Athlete of the Year, and 12 Coach of the Year awards. Academic enhancement has also skyrocketed under Massaro’s leadership. Massaro, who was appointed to a panel on APR Improvement Plans for the 2007 NCAA Convention, inherited a football program with a national-low score of 812 and saw it increase to a current 990 (on a 1,000-point scale) in 2009. As a whole, the Athletic Department has improved from a 908 score when Massaro was hired to an impressive cumulative (four years) score of
951 in 2007-08. All 17 Middle Tennessee sports teams achieved passing marks of 925 or higher in 2006-07 with four teams turning in a perfect mark of 1,000. In 2007-08, 16 of 17 teams topped the 925 mark. Massaro, who spent 20 years at the University of South Carolina prior to his appointment at Middle Tennessee, also overhauled the annual Blue Raider Athletic Association’s annual giving program, which resulted in a record number of members and financial giving in 2008, the fourth such year record numbers have been realized. The annual campaign has improved 40 percent since his arrival. Facility upgrades also have been at the top of Massaro’s impressive list of accomplishments. He completed a $6 million capital campaign for the new baseball stadium and initiated a series of major renovations to existing athletic facilities during the previous three years, including a state-of-the-art soccer and track complex. Most recently, a state-of-the-art golf performance center was completed in December 2008. In the midst of numerous upgrades, Massaro also has initiated generous contributions that made it possible to install a new synthetic surface in Floyd Stadium for the 2006 season. Additionally, new videoboards – one for football and two inside Murphy Center – were installed in 2007. In a span of four years Massaro’s hiring practices have been regarded as excellent. On Dec. 12, 2005, he made his highest profile hire when he selected Stockstill to take over the football program. Stockstill became just the second head coach in the I-A era and led the Blue Raiders to a league championship and a bowl appearance in his first season. Two days following his hiring, Massaro was pressed into action to find a replacement to lead the nationally recognized women’s basketball program. Massaro made his first hire when he brought on board legendary high school coach Rick Insell to take over the program. Both Insell and Stockstill won championships in their first seasons on the job. Massaro has also made a significant upgrade in the Blue Raider football schedule. During the summer of 2005, he announced a home game in 2007 that made Virginia the first team from the highly regarded ACC to visit Floyd Stadium, and then he quickly added a second ACC member when Maryland agreed to make the trip to Murfreesboro in 2008. The Blue Raiders rewarded him with a 24-14 upset. On his 100th day on the job, Massaro made one of his biggest announcements: a five-year contract with the University of Memphis to play football that started in 2007. The Tigers became the first in-state Division I-A (FBS) football team to play the Blue Raiders in Murfreesboro. Massaro has also worked out a home-and-home series with Mississippi State that will see the Bulldogs coming to Floyd Stadium in 2009 – making them the first SEC program to play in a Sun Belt stadium – and nearby Georgia Tech that will have the Yellow Jackets coming to Murfreesboro in 2011. In March 2008, Massaro made another big move when he announced a four-game series with neighboring rival Vanderbilt of the SEC. The series begins in 2015, and the teams will play twice in Murfreesboro and twice in Nashville. The Glenwood Springs, Colo., native joined the South Carolina staff under the Ohio University sport administration program in 1985. Massaro helped usher the Gamecocks into the SEC and learned under legendary athletic director Dr. Mike McGee. Massaro earned his bachelor’s degree in business administration from the University of Northern Colorado in 1983 and his master’s degree in sport administration from Ohio University in 1986. At UNC, Massaro was a five-year football team member. Massaro is also heavily involved in community service projects and organizations. He is a member of the Red Cross Board, the City Golf Commission, and the Rutherford County Sports Council Executive Committee, and he served on the search committee for the Rutherford County Chamber of Commerce president. Massaro and his wife, Cindy, have four children: Hank, Lainey, Rachel, and Ben.

Alumni Memorial Gym
USA
In 2002, Middle Tennessee volleyball made its debut in the newly renovated Alumni Memorial Gym (AMG). The facility, which once was home to Blue Raider men’s and women’s basketball prior to the completion of Murphy Center, is now the exclusive home of Blue Raider volleyball. Before the 2002 season, the AMG received a new floor, and in 2003, a state-of-the-art volleyball scoreboard was introduced. In 2004, Middle Tennessee head coach Matt Peck had floor seating installed to give fans an up-close-and-personal volleyball experience. Middle Tennessee’s Alumni Memorial Gym was home to the 2005 Sun Belt Championships November 17-19. The Blue Raiders and rival Western Kentucky’s match in the Sun Belt Championship was televised on ESPN+ with a school-record crowd of 1,028. It was the first time a Sun Belt Championship match had been shown on ESPN. The Blue Raiders have always played well on their home court. Since head coach Matt Peck took over the program in 2004, the Blue Raiders are 36-11 at the AMG.

2010 BLUE RAIDERS
Suite 2355 601 Poydras Street New Orleans, LA 70130-6078 504.299.9066 www.SunBeltSports.org The Sun Belt Conference enters its 35th season in 2010-2011 with several constants evident during the over three decade span of the league. Success, progress, and academic excellence have always been at the core of the league and in the second decade of the 21st century those constants could not be more clear. The Sun Belt Conference was founded on August 4, 1976 with New Orleans, South Alabama, Georgia State, Jacksonville, North CarolinaCharlotte and South Florida participating in four men’s sports: basketball, golf, soccer and tennis. With the onset of the 21st century the Sun Belt Conference began sponsoring football at the Division I-A level (now known as the Football Bowl Subdivision) in 2001 and generated an automatic bowl tie-in for its conference champion in the New Orleans Bowl. Prior to the 2001 season only Louisiana-Lafayette had competed at the Division I-A level for the entirety of its program’s history. New members North Texas, Middle Tennessee and New Mexico State would take on the task of maturing into I-A programs along with Arkansas State and football only members Idaho and Louisiana-Monroe. One of the first shining moments in Sun Belt football history came in the second New Orleans Bowl in 2002 when North Texas defeated Conference USA co-champion Cincinnati 24-19. More memorable moments would soon follow, but not before the league’s membership took on additional changes. Utah State joined the league briefly as a football playing member but departed along with Idaho and New Mexico State following the 2004 season. Troy joined the league as a football only in 2004 and would join as an all-sports member soon thereafter. Florida Atlantic joined initially as a football only member in 2005 and would also enter competition in all sports a couple of years later. FIU, a league member since the late 1990s, began competition in football in 2005 and WKU, a longtime league member, began competition in 2009. Louisiana-Monroe, a founding member of the football league, would join as all-sports member as well. The Sun Belt Conference now found itself as one of 31 NCAA conferences that sponsor multiple sports, but the league was now one of only 11 to participate in the Bowl Championship Series (BCS). With that lofty standing, expectations for the Sun Belt Conference are as high as ever and the league and its member institutions have consistently delivered in the past few years. The conference continues to utilize television to grow and promote the league and its member institutions. The Sun Belt Conference signed a new multi-year agreement with ESPN, Inc. in January of 2009 that will result in unprecedented national coverage for the league. Additionally, ESPN televised the conference’s men’s basketball championship game for the 30th straight season in 2010, marking its longest affiliation with any conference in the country. The conference’s regional television partnership with Comcast/Charter Sports Southeast (CSS) and Cox Sports Television (CST) enables live telecasts of Sun Belt events to reach millions of households. The addition of volleyball, baseball and softball to the conference’s television package has resulted in more national and regional television exposure for the league than at any time in its history. The Sun Belt Conference has also partnered with JumpTV Sports, Inc. to deliver a full-service, customized, public and premium website to provide fans with a broad range of real-time information and content about the conference’s athletic teams. The Sun Belt is one of the few conferences in the nation to provide video highlights and features on its website from each of the league’s respective championships. This technology serves as a great recruiting tool for schools by enabling anyone in the world with internet access to view the conference’s championship events. Since 2005 football season, the first year after conference realignment, the Sun Belt Conference ranks 6th out of 11 conferences in composite bowl game winning percentage. The Sun Belt Conference set an all-time league high for players selected in the NFL Draft in 2010 with seven total players selected - topping the previous record of five in 2007. There has been no shortage of success in the league’s other sports as well in recent years.
2010 BLUE RAIDER VOLLEYBALL
The Sun Belt Conference has sent at least two teams to the NCAA Baseball Tournament for 22 consecutive seasons. Since 2000 the Sun Belt Conference has sent three teams to the NCAA Tournament in a season six times - that is six times in the last decade that the Sun Belt has been worthy of having three teams in the NCAA Tournament. In women’s basketball, Sun Belt Conference ranked in the top half of the final league RPI rankings for the 2009-10 season - making it the 12th consecutive season that the Sun Belt Conference has placed in the top half of league RPI. Most impressively In six of those 12 seasons, Sun Belt Conference women’s basketball has placed in the national top 10 for RPI. The Sun Belt Conference has also sent multiple teams to the Women’s NCAA Basketball Championship in two of the last four season. This past season UALR and Middle Tennessee both represented the league in the NCAA postseason. Men’s basketball has seen noted highlights as well in recent years, with none greater than Ty Rodger’s magical last second three-point shot as WKU defeated No. 5 seed Drake in the first round of the NCAA Men’s Basketball Championship in 2008. The Hilltoppers would go on to reach the Sweet 16 that season and followed up with a trip to the second round the following year. South Alabama also reached the NCAA Men’s Basketball Championship in 2008 as the Jaguars qualified for an at-large bid. One of the nation’s all-time greatest softball programs resides in the Sun Belt Conference as Louisiana-Lafayette has advanced to the NCAA Women’s College World Series on five occasions. Most recently, the Ragin’ Cajuns played in the annuals WCWS in 2008. The Denver women’s golf team has been among the nation’s best for a number of years as well. The Pioneers held a national ranking throughout the entire 2009 season and capped the year with its first-ever regional championship, winning the NCAA East Regional at the Mark Bostick Golf Course in Gainesville, Fla. Denver came away with a top-five finish in the national competition, taking fifth place at the 2009 NCAA National Championship. Each of the 19 sports has seen numerous team and individual accomplishments, but in the realm of academic excellence nearly every Sun Belt Conference school is currently graduating its student-athletes at a rate higher than its respective school’s student body. For the third consecutive year Sun Belt Conference student-athletes topped the previous year’s record number of Commissioner’s List and Academic Honor Roll awards winners. 1,700 Sun Belt student-athletes earned a GPA over 3.0 for the previous school year and were named to either the Sun Belt Academic Honor Roll or Sun Belt Commissioner’s List. Sun Belt schools combined to have 756 student-athletes land on the Commissioner’s List, which honors all student-athletes recording a 3.5 GPA or better during the 2008-09 academic year. The league also had a total of 944 student-athletes named to the Academic Honor Roll, which is awarded to those maintaining a 3.0-3.49 GPA. The total of 1,700 student-athletes that were honored tops the previous highs of 1,503 set during the 2007-08 school year and 1,429 for the 2006-07 school year. Prominent Sun Belt alumni include former United States Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice (Denver), NFL Hall of Fame football player “Mean” Joe Greene (North Texas), Florida Marlins All-Star baseball player Luis Gonzalez (South Alabama), Boston Red Sox baseball player Mike Lowell (MLB All-Star and 2007 MLB World Series MVP, FIU), former member of the United States Senate and House of Representatives John Breaux (Louisiana-Lafayette), country music superstar Tim McGraw (LouisianaMonroe), and actor Andy Garcia (FIU). The conference’s first 34 years have also produced numerous individual national champions along with Olympic track medalists including Earl Bell, Tom Hill and Al Joyner (Arkansas State), Hollis Conway (LouisianaLafayette), and Tayna Lawrence (FIU). Old Dominion’s Anne Donovan, who received the Naismith Trophy recognizing the nation’s top women’s basketball player in 1983, helped the United States win the Olympic gold medal in 1984 and helped the Lady Monarchs capture the national championship in 1985.

2010 PREVIEW
2010 BLUE RAIDERS
OUTSIDE HITTERS
“Stacy had a banner sophomore year in 2009, leading the conference in attack percentage while being the best blocker in our program. That said, Maria is also a very accomplished opposite, so we have to see what happens. Maria is able to hit outside as well, something we have not worked on with Stacy. Either way, this position will be our bread and butter, as usual.” “All three of our setters bring different things to the table. Morgan is a superior athlete, the best blocker of the group, and a real threat in the front row. Courtney right now is running our offense the most smoothly, and Angela is the best defender and most deceptive of the group. I love that we have three very capable setters in our program for 2010.”
MIDDLE BLOCKERS
SETTERS
“Iza, Ashley, and Maria are the primary candidates for hitting outside. Iza’s allaround play, offensively and defensively, is the best in the Sun Belt and among the best in the nation. Offensively, Ashley has the potential to hit over every block we see, and her blocking is coming along nicely. Maria is the hardest hitter of this group and has a wide range of shots. Her jump-serving will score a lot of points for us this year. “
OPPOSITES
COACH PECK SAYS ...
“This is the deepest, most athletic, most talented corps of middles we have ever coached. Alyssa, Brandy, Lindsay, Sasha and Stacy are all quick-off-theground attackers with good fast arms, and all are very mobile and alert blockers. We have worked a couple of these players in multiple positions so we can get as many of them on the floor as we can this fall.”
DEFENSIVE SPECIALISTS
The 2010 edition of Middle Tennessee volleyball plans to build on the recent successes of the program since head coach Matt Peck took over in 2004. The Blue Raiders won the Sun Belt Tournament in 2009, their third such title in the previous four seasons, to secure a fourth consecutive trip to the NCAA Tournament. Middle Tennessee is aiming to keep that streak going in 2010. “As is the case every year, our primary goal is to win the Sun Belt regular season title and the conference tournament,” said Peck. “Additionally, we feel with this year’s team that yet another appearance in the Sweet Sixteen is on our radar.” Middle Tennessee returns two All-Sun Belt performers in senior Izabela Kozon and junior Stacy Oladinni, who also took home AVCA All-South Region honors. Incoming junior Maria Szivos earned All-Sun Belt accolades as well while playing for New Orleans last season. Returning for the Blue Raiders are veteran defensive specialists Brynne Henderson and Halie Vannoy, who each played in the vast majority of sets in 2009. In all, 12 players are coming back to go along with five newcomers. “We could not be happier with our incoming 2010 class,” said Peck. “Initially, both Kendall Howard and Angela Peyton will have the greatest opportunity to contribute right away. Riana Cain, however, will also challenge for playing time. And of course, Maria is an immediate impact player who can take over matches herself.” Once again, Middle Tennessee has put together another tough schedule in 2010. The nonconference slate features six 2009 NCAA Tournament teams including Duke, Georgia Tech, Illinois, Long Beach, Miami (Fla.) and St. Louis. The conference schedule will include a pair of matches against another NCAA Tournament participant in FIU. The Blue Raiders will claim home court advantage later in the season, when the Sun Belt Tournament will be hosted in the friendly confines of Alumni Memorial Gym. “Our team loves to play at AMG. I believe it’s one of the best college volleyball venues in the country. Very much on our team’s mind is the fact that the host institution has not played in the SBC Finals since 2005, when Western Kentucky defeated us at AMG in 5 sets on ESPN. We hope to break that spell this November.”
“We are very deep here. We return both Brynne and Halie, who played every single game of every single match in 2009, and both of whom made great strides this past spring. Additionally, Kendall and Riana are outstanding in the back row with their passing, defense, hitter coverage, and serving. I think we’re going to have some very long rallies in practice this fall. This is the best group of defenders we’ve ever had.”

North Alabama finished the 2003 season with an overall record of 33-7. Overall, Peck is 19-8 all-time in NCAA Tournament play and compiled a record of 107-3 against Gulf South Conference opponents. In his nine-year stint at North Alabama, Peck compiled a record of 312-61, which includes seven straight Gulf South Conference Championships and four appearances in the NCAA Division II Elite Eight. Peck is the only coach in GSC history to be selected coach of the year for three consecutive seasons (1996, 1997, 1998) and won the award four times overall. He also produced 20 AllAmericans, and UNA set two individual and five NCAA Division II Tournament records under his guidance. In 2002, UNA went 30-5, won the GSC volleyball title, and advanced to the NCAA Regional for the seventh time. In 2001, UNA was 32-4 and won its sixth straight GSC title before falling in the regional championship match. It was 2000 when Peck and the Lions made their closest bid to the national title before winning it in 2003. UNA went 40-3 and reached the Division II Final Four for the first time.

2010 BLUE RAIDER VOLLEYBALL
Georgia Tech
Middle Tennessee Volleyball
2009 RECAP
2010 BLUE RAIDERS Middle Tennessee put together another fantastic season in 2009, winning the Sun Belt Conference Tournament for the third time in four years and earning the school’s fourth consecutive bid to the NCAA Tournament. The Blue Raiders started off hot for the third consecutive season, winning the first five matches including the Middle Tennessee Invitational, where they knocked off Kansas before sweeping Murray State and Xavier to take home the tournament title. In the Blue Raider Bash the following weekend, Middle Tennessee started with a grueling match vs. Georgia Tech, but the Blue Izabela Kozon helped lead the Blue Raiders won 3-1 thanks to Raiders to their fourth consecutive a 32-30 fourth set battle. NCAA Tournament appearance After sweeping Northern Illinois, Middle Tennessee ultimately fell to Northern Iowa and Ohio in the final two matches of the weekend. Following a tough stretch of games that saw the Blue Raiders fall in hard-fought matches vs. Albany and Miami and against ranked foes in 22nd-ranked Florida State and third-ranked Washington, Middle Tennessee got back to its winning ways at UT-San Antonio with a three-set drubbing of the Roadrunners. The Blue Raiders swept UAB on the road before returning home for a five-set comeback victory against rival Western Kentucky to kick off the conference slate of games. Middle Tennessee picked up a dominant three-set victory at Florida Atlantic before falling at FIU to end a four-match win streak. The Blue Raiders responded quickly to the loss against the Golden Panthers, reeling off victories in 11 consecutive matches and only losing three sets over that span. A five-set thriller at home against Arkansas State began the streak, and Middle Tennessee took home victories in straight sets over UALR, North Texas and Denver before hitting the road for four consecutive away matches. The Blue Raiders played another close match with Western Kentucky, winning 3-1, and ended up 4-0 on the road swing with three-set wins at UL-Lafayette, UL-Monroe and New Orleans. Middle Tennessee returned home to sweep South Alabama, Troy and FAU before falling once again to FIU in a back-and-forth battle at Alumni Memorial Gym. The Blue Raiders rebounded quickly with 3-0 victories at both South Alabama and Troy. Middle Tennessee rode the momentum into the Sun Belt Tournament, picking up four-set wins against UALR and host Western Kentucky before facing FIU for the Sun Belt Championship. The Golden Panthers entered the match 19-0 against Sun Belt opponents on the season, including a 2-0 mark vs. Middle Tennessee. However, the Blue Raiders jumped out to an early lead, winning the first two sets. FIU fought back with a victory in the third set, but Middle Tennessee proved too much to handle as they cruised to a 25-15 victory in the fourth set to take the title. Following the Sun Belt Tournament, the Blue Raiders traveled to St. Louis for a match against the 22nd-ranked Billikens,
who were also preparing for their trip to the NCAA Tournament. Middle Tennessee won a hard-fought second set to even up the match but fell in the final two sets by the scores of 20-25 and 2426. The Blue Raiders then traveled to 25th-ranked Colorado State for their opening round match against the Rams. CSU took hold early, winning the first set 19-25, but Middle Tennessee rallied to win the second set 25-16. The Rams regained the lead with a 25-21 nailbiter after the break, but once again the Blue Raiders responded strongly with a 25-17 fourth set. Colorado State took hold for good, winning the fifth and final set 15-6 to advance in the tournament. Individually, senior Leslie Clark once again put together an outstanding campaign, extending her school-record assist total to an eye-popping 5,692 and earning First Team All-Sun Belt honors. Junior Izabela Kozon had another great season for the Blue Raiders. The Warsaw, Poland, native was named to the All-Sun Belt First Team and moved to fifth all-time on the career kills list with 1,223. Senior Ashley Mead, who won the Sun Belt Tournament’s Most Outstanding Player award, and sophomore Stacy Oladinni each took home Second Team All-Sun Belt honors.

2006 Seattle Regional Louisville, Ky. The club was on a mission and it seemed the teams the Blue Raiders faced were just roadblocks to maneuver around. After blanking Florida Atlantic 3-0, a club that had beaten them earlier in the season, Middle Tennessee faced host North Texas. The team had to battle through a hostile home crowd but managed a 3-1 victory over the Mean Green to reach the Sun Belt finals for the second straight year. However it wouldn’t be a rematch of the 2005 Sun Belt Championships, as Florida International had dispensed with Western Kentucky to reach the finals. There would be a new champion. A Blue Raider squad with one purpose and a look of resolve took the court for the finals. After the disappointment of losing in the finals in 2005, this club was determined to be on the court celebrating when the match was over. For the third time Middle Tennessee shutout Florida International 3-0, but this one was the one that counted the most, making the Blue Raiders the 2006 Sun Belt Tournament Champions. Ashley Adams was voted Sun Belt Tournament MVP as she registered 63 kills averaging 6.30 kills per game in the tournament. Quanshell Scott and senior Jessica Robinson were named All-Tournament. The win assured Middle Tennessee an automatic bid into the NCAA Tournament, its first appearance in 11 years, since the school was a member of the Ohio Valley Conference. The Blue Raiders were placed in the Seattle Regional and faced host Louisville in the first round. Middle Tennessee made history on December 1, winning its first match in the NCAA Tournament with a 3-2 victory over the Louisville Cardinals in the first round. Middle Tennessee was down 9-3 in game five but refused to go quietly. The Blue Raiders fought back and tied the match at 11 off a service ace by Leslie Clark. Middle Tennessee took the lead 12-11 when Ashley Asberry notched a kill and then led again 13-12 when Robinson got a kill. Down 14-13, Middle Tennessee reached match point off two huge kills by Adams. The Blue Raiders won the match thanks to a kill by Asberry. Louisville failed to reach the second round of the NCAA Tournament for the first time in since 2000. The win set up a match with No. 18 Ohio State in the second round.

The Blue Raiders fell to BYU 3-0 in the round of 16 but in the process reminded the country it was not a team to be underestimated. The Blue Raiders kept BYU from match point four times but also lost a chance to force a fourth game three times. Izabela Kozon was named to the Regional All-Championship team of the Penn State Regional for her performance against Brigham Young. Kozon knocked down 11 kills for a .304 hitting percentage.
