The two-sheet facility also hosts a 5,000-square foot weight room, hydrotherapy training room, steam room, team lounge and locker room areas. It has the best of amenities for student-athletes and coaches alike.

When visitors arrive in Hockey Valley, they experience the best college hockey has to offer. Pegula Ice Arena has an interactive history of Penn State Hockey, as well as concession stands, suites, loge boxes and club seats.

Additionally, the arena’s ability to house state-of-the-art media and broadcasting facilities allow it to host National Hockey League and American Hockey League games, bringing hockey’s best to Hockey Valley. The first NHL event inside Pegula came on September 26, 2016, as the Buffalo Sabres dropped a 2-1 decision to the Minnesota Wild in an exhibition game.

The Centre Region community can also take advantage of the community rink, which is open nearly 360 days per year for public use. The rink seats 300 fans and features eight locker rooms to host local youth hockey, university recreation and skating programs.

THE GIFT OF TERRY & KIM PEGULA

The facility was brought to fruition by an initial $88 million donation—the largest in University history—from Terry and Kim Pegula, who, through their gift, helped Penn State realize its goal of Division I hockey. At the ceremonial groundbreaking on April 20, 2012, the Pegulas added $14 million to the project to lift their total donation to $102 million.

Pegula Ice Arena is located at 250 University Drive near Curtin Road across from the Bryce Jordan Center.

AT PENN STATE This past year, Gadowsky led Penn State to its first-ever Big Ten regular-season championship with a single-season program record 12 conference victories and 41 points. The Penn State bench boss was named a finalist for the 2019-20 Big Ten Coach of the Year award while leading the Nittany Lions to the Big Ten Tournament semifinals for the sixth time in the seven-year history of the conference. Penn State earned a first-round bye straight to the semifinals.

Enters his 21st season as an NCAA Division I Head Coach Overall Record: 318-318-60 (.500) Penn State Record: 145-120-23 (.547) Back-to-Back NCAA Tournament Appearances in 2017 and 2018 2017 Big Ten Tournament Champion | 2019-20 Big Ten Regular Season Champion 2014-15 Big Ten Coach of the Year Developed Penn State’s first NHL player, Casey Bailey (Toronto Maple Leafs) Inducted into the Alaska Nanook Hall of Fame in September 2014 2007-08 ECAC Hockey Coach of the Year (Princeton) 2001-02 CCHA Coach of the Year (Alaska Fairbanks)

Gadowsky secured his seventh career 20win season and his fourth in the past five years at Penn State in 2019-20 becoming one of just two Big Ten programs to have four 20-win seasons over the past five years. He also had the Nittany Lions in line for their third NCAA Tournament appearance before the postseason was canceled due to the Covid-19 pandemic with Penn State finishing the season No. 7 in the final PairWise rankings marking the highest finish in program history.

Gadowsky registered his 300th career victory in October and currently ranks tied for 78th all-time throughout all divisions with 318 victories. Among Division I coaches all-time, Gadowsky ranks 45th with his 318 wins and is currently 13th among active NCAA Division I coaches.

In 2019-20 he coached Penn State’s first-ever CCM/AHCA All-Americans as both Cole Hults and Nate Sucese landed on the Second-Team West while also being named First-Team All-Big Ten. Hults earned Penn State’s first-ever Big Ten Player of the Year honors while also garnering Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year while Sucese took over as the program’s all-time leader in goals (61) and points (140) during the 2019-20 season.

At the conclusion of the season the Nittany Lions saw four players sign NHL entry-level contracts while three others signed AHL deals.

In 2018-19, Gadowsky led Penn State to its second-highest win total in program history with 22, and became the winningest coach in Big Ten Tournament history, compiling a 10-6 record over six seasons.

The Nittany Lions returned to the Big Ten Championship game for the second time in the past three seasons, but dropped a tough 3-2 decision at Notre Dame.

Penn State secured its most Big Ten

wins in program history with 11 while its 35 points were also the most in a single season. The Nittany Lions once again led the nation in goals per game with a new single-season record of 4.54 while also setting single-season records for goals (177), assists (301) and points (478), each of which were also tops in the nation.

Gadowsky saw sophomore Alex Limoges become the first Nittany Lion ever to lead the nation in points as he set a single-season program record with 50 while his 23 goals were also a new program standard and ranked tied for second in the nation.

Sophomore Evan Barratt became just the fourth player in program history and third in the last three seasons to earn first-team All-Big Ten honors. Barratt, along with teammate Aarne Talvitie, also became the first Niittany Lions ever to represent their countries at the IIHF World Junior Championship. Talvitie captained Finland to the gold medal while Barratt helped Team USA take home the silver.

Despite the win total and records the Nittany Lions fell one spot short of the NCAA Tournament, finishing the season at No. 16 in the PairWise rankings.

Gadowsky led his Nittany Lions to their second-straight NCAA Tournament in 2017-18. Penn State was able to take the short drive down to Allentown, Pennsylvania, as it served as host for the Midwest Regional. The Nittany Lions’ season was cut short at the hands of the Denver Pioneers, 5-1, in the NCAA Midwest Regional semifinal.

Earlier in the 2017-18 season, Gadowsky secured his 100th career victory at Penn State, also the 100th victory for the program, a 5-1 win over Minnesota on February 23, 2018. That victory was the start of the Nittany Lions first-ever sweep of the Golden Gophers, which secured home ice

for Penn State in the Big Ten Tournament quarterfinals. Penn State went on to sweep Minnesota in two games, clinching the series and its fourth B1G Semifinal appearance in five years.

Junior Andrew Sturtz became just the second member of the 100-point club at Penn State in 2017-18 and the all-time leading goal scorer in program history. Sturtz graduated early and signed an NHL deal with the Ottawa Senators.

Gadowsky also coached Trevor Hamilton to a Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year award, the first major conference honor awarded to a Nittany Lion. To that point, Hamilton joined Casey Bailey and Vince Pedrie as the only first-team All-Conference members in program history.

In 2016-17, Gadowsky led Penn State to its most successful season ever, compiling a record of 25-12-2. Penn State won the 2017 Big Ten Tournament and earned its first-ever NCAA Tournament appearance, falling one game shy of the Frozen Four. The Nittany Lions defeated Union 10-3, tying the

BIG TEN CONFERENCE

GOPSUSPORTS.COM

1 2 Big Life. Big Stage. Big Ten. Since its inception in 1896, the pursuit and attainment of academic excellence has been a priority for every Big Ten member institution. But maintaining the conference’s standard of competing at the highest level in athletics also endures as an important component of the Big Ten experience. Striking that balance between academics and athletics is integral to the Big Ten’s identity. Recognized as one of intercollegiate sports’ most successful undertakings, the Big Ten strives for success from its students not only on the field and in the classroom, but around the world as well.

PREMIER ACADEMIC INSTITUTIONS

LEADERS IN INNOVATION

4

Every Big Ten Academic Alliance institution ranks among the top 70 universities in the nation according to the 2019 Academic Ranking of World Universities, including six in the top 30.

Awarded the first Big Ten Medal of Honor in 1915, honoring outstanding seniors who demonstrated excellence in academics and athletics.

The Big Ten Academic Alliance is an academic consortium of all 14 Big Ten universities, which is widely considered to be the model for effective and voluntary collaboration among top research universities.

The Big Ten leads all conferences with more than 1,800 Academic AllAmericans, including 27 honorees during the 2019-20 academic year.

Big Ten Academic Alliance schools annually conduct $10 billion in funded research, $5 billion more than any other conference.

A HISTORY OF ATHLETIC SUCCESS

Big Ten schools have won at least five national championships in 23 of the last 26 years, averaging nearly seven per year over that span.

Since the 2008-09 academic year, current Big Ten institutions have claimed 76 team national championships in 21 different sports.

BROAD-BASED PROGRAMMING

Took part in the nation’s first bowl game, winning the 1902 Rose Bowl Game, and signed an exclusive contract with the Tournament of Roses in 1946, making it the first bowl with permanent conference affiliations.

Formed the Big Ten Advisory Commission in 1972, enlisting former students that competed in conference athletics to serve as liaisons to the NCAA’s Diversity and Inclusion Department, the Big Ten Student-Athlete Advisory Commission and other organizations.

Became the first conference to voluntarily adopt male and female participation goals after launching its Gender Equity Action Plan in 1992.

Implemented the first collegiate football system of instant replay in 2004, which the NCAA approved for use among all conferences in 2006.

Launched the Big Ten Network (BTN) in 2007, the first national conferenceowned television network.

The Big Ten sponsors 28 official conference sports, 14 for men and 14 for women, including the addition of men’s ice hockey and men’s and women’s lacrosse in this decade.

EXTENSIVE TELEVISION EXPOSURE

PASSIONATE FOLLOWING

The Big Ten leads all conferences with 5.7 million alumni and nearly 580,000 students.

Each year more than 11 million patrons attend Big Ten home contests, as the conference has led the nation in attendance for men’s basketball, ice hockey, volleyball and wrestling.

2020-21 PENN STATE HOCKEY

Through the Big Ten’s current media agreements with BTN, ABC/ ESPN, CBS and FOX, more than 2,000 Big Ten events are produced and distributed nationally and globally on an annual basis.

BTN is in almost 60 million homes across the United States and Canada, and is also available internationally via the Fox Sports App, delivering live and on-demand programming to computers, smartphones and tablets.

BTN Plus streams hundreds of additional events each season.

COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT

For more than 30 years, through the Big Ten’s SCORE (Success Comes Out of Reading Everyday) program, the conference has partnered with Chicago elementary schools to improve reading performance.

PENN STATE RECORD BOOK

Accepted Johns Hopkins University as the conference’s first sport affiliate members in men’s and women’s lacrosse in 2013 and 2015, respectively, and added Notre Dame as a sport affiliate member in men’s ice hockey in 2017.

Almost 1,400 Big Ten competitors have participated in the Olympics, winning more than 600 medals, including nearly 300 gold. In the 2016 and 2018 Olympic Games, more than 200 representatives from Big Ten institutions including current or former students and coaches were members of Olympic teams. Big Ten Olympians collected more than 50 medals in the most recent games in Rio and PyeongChang.

Began partnering with the Ivy League to study the effects of head injuries in sports in 2012.

The Big Ten will administer over $200 million in direct financial support to more than 9,800 students competing in intercollegiate athletics for more than 11,000 participation opportunities on 350 teams in 42 different sports.

The Big Ten leads the nation in total students competing in intercollegiate athletics and participation opportunities, and sponsors more official sports than all conferences except the Ivy League.

NITTANY LION HOCKEY HISTORY

2020-21 PENN STATE HOCKEY

NITTANY LION HOCKEY HISTORY HOCKEY VALLEY TIMELINE EARLY YEARS LATE 1800s-EARLY 1900s Many of Penn State’s 300 students play pickup hockey on flooded outdoor rinks.

1906-09 Students primarily from the Pittsburgh area organize a hockey team with the intent to seek official approval for an intercollegiate varsity team by the University’s Athletic Association, which oversaw all Penn State sports.

DECEMBER 1909 On Christmas night, the first Penn State hockey team, led by captain Herb Baetz, plays its first-ever intercollegiate game against Carnegie Tech at the Duquesne Gardens in Pittsburgh.

Less than a week later, Penn State travels to the Duquesne Gardens once more, and falls to Pittsburgh, 2-1.

JANUARY 21, 1910 University’s Athletic Association rejects an official bid to sponsor ice hockey as an official varsity sport. Penn State students fight to elevate the program for the next two decades.

WINTER 1938 Eight members of the Sigma Phi fraternity form an independent hockey team.

FEBRUARY 1938 On Feb. 12, the team plays an exhibition game against Lakemont, an independent amateur team, in Altoona, Pennsylvania, with Al Hook, a physical education professor, serving as team coach. Ten days later, the independent squad suits up for its first intercollegiate game against Pittsburgh at the Duquesne Gardens, losing 4-0.

contest Jan. 27, when the team was finally able to play on flooded tennis courts. Three hundred bleachers were also put in for the event.

The team competes in 11 games during the season and compiled a 3-8-0 record.

THE FIRST VARSITY ERA MARCH-MAY 1940 Hockey and skiing are put before the students at the All-College Elections. Two months later, hockey is voted as an official varsity sport as the Athletic Association approved the measure by a 651-35 majority vote.

DECEMBER 6, 1940 Penn State plays its first game as a varsity sport at the Shaffer Ice Palace in Johnstown, Pennsylvania. The Nittany Lions defeat Carnegie Tech, 3-1, with John Dufford scoring the first goal in Penn State varsity history.

After the first season, the University’s Athletic Advisory Board granted hockey full status with full financial support. Up until that time, the team was able to make its own schedule and handle its own finances. The team uses Rec Hall as its practice facility as several attempts for an outdoor rink throughout the years is unsuccessful.

1940-44 SEASONS Although there is on-ice success, the United States’ involvement in World War II, combined with the lack of availability of ice on campus,

has a devastating effect on the viability of Penn State Hockey.

With many teams dropping the sport, Penn State only plays four games during the 194243 season, including just two collegiate contests.

Ravaged by the war, Coach Davis and Penn State prepared for the 1943-44 season with only three members from the previous year’s squad after losing most of its members to military and civilian enrollment.

With the effects of the war being felt throughout the University, the Athletic Association announces that the suspensions of six sports as a war-time economy measure: hockey, cross country, swimming, gymnastics, tennis and golf.

1946-47 SEASON Following the end of World War II, the team returns for one final season. James O’Hora, a new addition to the football coaching staff, is selected to lead Penn State for the 194647 season. The Nittany Lions are scheduled to play seven games, but four contests are eventually cancelled due to warm weather.

Following the season, the Athletic Association drops hockey once more, citing limited facilities.

It will be 25 years until organized hockey returns to Penn State.

1938-39 SEASON Prior to the start of the 1938-39 campaign, Dr. Carl P. Schott, Dean of the School of Physical Education and Athletics, approves appropriations of $100 for the team.

Dr. Arthur F. Davis, who also coached the first four seasons of varsity hockey at Penn State, is named the team’s head coach. In the beginning of the season, the team practices indoors at the Armory building or outside on the pond at Whipple Dam, and plays three games.

1939-40 SEASON Penn State joins the Pennsylvania Intercollegiate League with the University of Pennsylvania, Hershey Jr. Cubs, Lehigh and Lafayette.

During the season, Rec Hall becomes the team’s indoor practice facility. The team’s “home” rink was more than 100 miles away in Hershey. Penn State plays its first true home

PENN STATE UNIVERSITY

the proceeds supported colleges that agreed to include engineering, science and the liberal arts as well as agriculture in their course of studies. In 1863, the Pennsylvania legislature designated Penn State the Commonwealth’s sole land-grant institution. The lawmakers in effect bestowed on the privately incorporated college a public character. In return for state support, the institution assumed obligations of teaching, research and service that are normally associated with publicly owned landgrant universities in other states.

Penn State’s historic mission of teaching, research, and public service — launched under the most modest of circumstances more than 150 years ago — now reaches into virtually all parts of Pennsylvania. Consider, for example, that the University now has 24 campuses across the Commonwealth, putting a Penn State education within practical reach of nearly every Pennsylvanian. In fact, more than 70 percent of Penn State’s undergraduates are Pennsylvania residents.

Penn State is Pennsylvania’s largest nongovernmental employer and has employees and expenditures in every one of its 67 counties.

The University generates a total economic impact across the Commonwealth that surpasses $17 billion annually.

Part of that impact is derived from Penn State’s research program, which brought more than $534 million in federal funds to Pennsylvania last year, and an additional $91 million from private industry. In addition, as part of its Invent Penn State initiative, the University has funded 21 innovation hubs, designed to bolster entrepreneurship and economic development in communities surrounding its campuses across Pennsylvania.

Penn State’s outreach and online programs — ranging from 4H to Cooperative Extension, from summer camps to public broadcasting — provide

educational and service programs to more than a million Pennsylvania households annually.

THE BEGINNING The University’s presence throughout Pennsylvania today contrasts sharply with its humble beginnings. Chartered as a college of scientific agriculture, the institution was located in rural Centre County after James Irvin, a partner in the Centre Furnace iron works (remains of which can be seen today along East College Avenue), offered to donate 200 acres of farmland for a campus.

Founding President Evan Pugh wanted the fledgling institution to embody a new approach to higher education that blended classical studies with subjects that had practical value.

He joined similar visionaries in other states in convincing Congress to pass the Morrill Land-Grant Act in 1862. The act gave individual states tracts of federal land to sell;

By the 1890s Penn State was making its mark.

It ranked among the nation’s 10 largest undergraduate engineering schools, a distinction it still holds. It established one of the nation’s first collegiate agricultural experiment stations, and Professor Whitman Jordan’s pioneering research on using fertilizers for soil enrichment had global impact on crop yields.

Penn State in 1871 became one of the first land-grant schools in the Northeast to admit women, graduated its first international student in 1890, and its first African-American student in 1905.

THE 20TH CENTURY In the early 1900s, President Edwin E. Sparks supported a number of efforts to “carry the college to the people,” as he liked to say. Technical institutes were established in various locations statewide for engineering education, beginning with an evening school in Allentown in 1910. In 1912, Penn State helped create a system of county agents in agriculture and home economics. Today, the Penn State World Campus, with its “anywhere, anytime” learning

through the Internet, builds on that outreach tradition.

But undergraduate education remained foremost. Enrollment surpassed 5,000 students by 1936, including those attending several undergraduate centers that were created for students who, in the depths of the Great Depression, could not afford to leave their hometowns to get a college education. The centers offered the first year of baccalaureate studies and were the predecessors of today’s statewide system of campuses. Thanks to this innovative approach to higher education, Penn State in the 1930s became Pennsylvania’s largest single source of baccalaureate degrees, a distinction it holds to this day.

The University also emerged on the national scene as a research powerhouse in fields as diverse as dairy science, acoustics, psychology and diesel engineering. The expansion of research went hand in hand with a steady increase in the number of graduate students. The University awarded its first graduate degree — a master’s degree in scientific agriculture — in 1862, and the Graduate School was established in 1922. But overall graduate enrollment remained modest until the 1950s, then swelled steadily. The Graduate School has awarded to date approximately 130,000 master’s, doctoral and other advanced degrees.

TODAY The University Park campus is Penn State’s administrative and research hub. In addition, there are 19 primarily undergraduate campuses; Penn State Health Milton S. Hershey Medical Center and the College of Medicine; the Pennsylvania College of Technology; Penn State Law: Dickinson Law; the Penn State Great Valley School of Graduate Professional Studies; and the Penn State World Campus.

To date, Penn State has awarded more than 840,000 degrees, hallmarks of an educational experience second to none in quality. In addition, Penn State alumni — including 348,000 in Pennsylvania alone — have job- and social-networking opportunities that no other college or university in the Commonwealth can surpass.

NITTANY LION LEGEND Penn State’s athletic symbol, chosen by the student body in 1906, is the mountain lion which once roamed central Pennsylvania.

H.D. “Joe” Mason, a member of the Class of 1907, conducted a one-man campaign to choose a school mascot after seeing the Princeton tiger on a trip with the Penn State baseball team to that New Jersey campus. A student publication sponsored the campaign to select a mascot and Penn State is believed to be the first college to adopt the lion as a mascot.

Since Penn State is located in the Nittany Valley at the foot of Mount Nittany, the lion was designated as a Nittany Lion. In regional folklore, Nittany (or Nita-Nee) was a valorous Indian princess in whose honor the Great Spirit caused Mount Nittany to be formed. A later namesake, daughter of chief O-Ko-Cho, who lived near the mouth of Penn’s Creek, fell in love with Malachi Boyer, a trader. The tearful maiden and her lost lover became legend and her name was given to the stately mountain.

LION SHRINE Penn State’s Nittany Lion shrine was dedicated on Oct. 24, 1942, during Homecoming Weekend. Animal sculptor Heinz Warneke and stonecutter Joseph Garatti molded a 13ton block of Indiana limestone into the most recognizable symbol of Penn State. The shrine was chosen from six models submitted by

THE LION SHRINE Warneke.

The shrine is a gift of the Class of 1940 and rests in a natural setting of trees near Recreation Building. The site was chosen because of its accessibility, the surrounding trees and the fact that the sculpture would not be dwarfed by nearby buildings.

BLUE & WHITE Penn State’s student-athletes are instantly identified by their blue and white uniforms — but those weren’t the original school colors.

A three-member committee representing the sophomore, junior and senior classes was appointed in October of 1887 to develop color options from which the student body would select the school’s official colors. Dark pink and black was the unanimous choice of the student body after considering the color combinations presented by the committee.

Soon many students and the baseball team were sporting pink and black striped blazers and caps. However, problems arose when the pink faded to white after several weeks of exposure to the sun. The students then opted for blue, rather than black, and white. The official announcement of the new choice was made on March 18, 1890.

AD

In February 2019, Barbour received a contract extension through August 31, 2023, and assumed the title of Penn State Vice President for Intercollegiate Athletics.

The “Why” –– Preparing Students for a Lifetime of Impact Barbour began implementing her vision for Penn State Intercollegiate Athletics and creating conditions for success for the department’s “Why” – the more than 800 Nittany Lion student-athletes. She oversees a broad-based program that supports students competing in 31 sports and a staff of more than 300 individuals whose daily mission is preparing students for a lifetime of impact.

A reorganization of ICA introduced four administrative divisions: student-athlete performance, health and welfare; internal and external relations and operations, administration and business and finance.

Barbour also announced a wide-ranging strategic planning process to determine strategies and priorities for the formalized 2017-21 strategic plan.

Excellence in Academics and Athletics Penn State student-athletes have consistently raised the bar and broken or tied school academic records in the last five years, including the number of Academic All-Big Ten and Big Ten Distinguished Scholar recipients in 2019-20. A record 28 of 31 teams recorded at least a 3.0 semester GPA in the 2019 fall semester. All 31 teams earned at least a 3.0 semester GPA with the University’s COVID-19 alternative grading system in place for the 2020 spring semester.

Eighteen Nittany Lions have earned CoSIDA Academic All-America accolades during Barbour’s tenure, boosting Penn State’s all-time total to 205, No. 4 nationally among Division I institutions.

In November 2019, the NCAA released its annual national graduation rates study, which disclosed that Penn State student-athletes earned a school-record Graduation Success Rate (GSR) of 91 percent, marking the third consecutive year of a GSR of 90 percent or higher. Ten Nittany Lion teams earned a perfect 100 percent Graduation Success Rate.

Six NCAA Team Championships and 31 Conference Titles During Barbour’s five years in Happy Valley, the Nittany Lions have captured six NCAA Championships in women’s soccer, women’s volleyball and wrestling and won 26 Big Ten titles and five EIVA crowns for 31 total conference championships.

In 2019-20, the Nittany Lion women’s soccer team claimed its second Big Ten Tournament title in three years with an overtime victory over Michigan. The men’s hockey program earned its first Big Ten regular-season title with a 20-win season. The football team played in its third New Year’s Six bowl in four years and finished in the top 12 of the College Football Playoff rankings for the fourth consecutive season. In addition, the men’s basketball squad tied its highest national ranking in program history (No. 9) and was poised to return to the NCAA Tournament before the season was cut short due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

AD of the Year Recipient in 2016-17 and Finalist in 2018 Barbour’s leadership was recognized with her selection for the prestigious National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA) Under Armour AD of the Year Award in 2016-17.

erful, most influential and most outstanding women in sports.

Barbour is a member of the NCAA Football Oversight Committee, and in 2017, the United States Olympic Committee (USOC) appointed her as one of the inaugural members of its Collegiate Advisory Council.

A Path of Successful Leadership Serving as the Director of Athletics at Cal from 200414, Barbour guided the Golden Bears through one of the most successful periods in school history. Twenty team national championships, 97 individual national titles, and six top-10 finishes, including No. 3 in 2011, in the annual Learfield Directors’ Cup standings were highlights of her tenure.

Barbour was the deputy director of athletics at Notre Dame, the senior athletic administrator from July 2002 to September 2004. She oversaw facilities and event operations was also responsible for developing, maintaining and implementing the university’s $127 million athletics facilities master plan.

In 1996, Barbour was appointed Tulane’s director of athletics at age 36. The Green Wave won four conference championships in her first year, a feat never before accomplished, and continued its success with 12 titles in three years. She hired Tommy Bowden as football coach and the Green Wave posted its first winning season in 16 years. The next season, Tulane went 12-0, won a Conference USA title and earned a No. 7 national ranking as 1998 Liberty Bowl champions.

Born in Annapolis, Md., Barbour grew up in a military family. Her father was a career aviator in the U.S. Navy, and her family lived in various U.S. locations and in Western Europe during her childhood.

Barbour graduated cum laude in 1981 with a B.S. degree in physical education from Wake Forest University, where she was a four-year letterwinner and captain of the field hockey team. She also played two seasons of women’s basketball for the Demon Deacons.

Barbour earned advanced degrees at the University of Massachusetts (an M.S. in sports management in 1983) and Northwestern’s Kellogg School of Management (an MBA in 1991). Barbour’s career in intercollegiate athletics began as a field hockey assistant coach and lacrosse administrative assistant at Massachusetts in 1981.
