Yellow Jackets at the Bill Moore Tennis Center
One of the top collegiate facilities in the nation, the Bill Moore Tennis Center serves as the home of the Georgia Tech tennis teams. Opening for the1988 season, the complex was officially dedicated on October 28, 1988, in honor of Bill Moore, whose efforts were vital in the construction of this impressive facility. A graduate of Georgia Tech in management and a tennis letterman, Moore served as the chairman of Kelly-Moore Paint States, the largest independent paint company in the United States, and the Calmutual Insurance Company. Located on Fowler Street across from the Alexander Memorial Coliseum, the Bill Moore Tennis Complex features 12 outdoor courts and three indoor courts. The outdoor courts are divided into two tiers, and the top six courts are lighted and have permanent seating for 1,500 with the main grandstand along court number one and more seating along the baseline of the six courts. The indoor facility is two stories, with three courts on the lower level, along with locker rooms for the men’s and women’s teams and visiting teams. The upper level, known as the Hansard Room, houses a pro shop, coaches’ offices and a lounge area for the athletes. The Hansard Room is also home to trophy cases displaying Yellow Jacket tennis memorabilia. Well-suited for hosting tournaments, the Bill Moore Tennis Center has been the site for numerous events, including the NCAA Region II Championships in 1997, the ACC Championships in 1988 and the 1st and 2nd rounds of the NCAA Women’s NCAA Championships from 2005 to 2009.

Since the opening of the Bill Moore Tennis Center, many improvements have been made. During the 2003 season, a scoreboard was installed with remote scoring devices to allow fans to track dual matches on all six courts. In addition, cameras have recently been installed at the baseline of all six upper courts with the video equipment necessary to allow coaches to meet with players and review matches and stroke techniques. Most recently, plasma televisions have been added to the men’s and women’s locker rooms and a new player’s lounge was created, making the Bill Moore Tennis Center one of the nation’s finest facilities.

The Rambling Wreck September 30, 1961 versus Rice. For the first time, the official Rambling Wreck car led the Georgia Tech football team onto Grant Field. It’s happened at every home game since. The event did not establish a new tradition at Georgia Tech, but it cemented one. The vehicle, a restored 1930 Model A Ford Sport Coupe, was Tech’s first official Rambling Wreck car. Since that time, the Rambling Wreck car has joined a much older tradition - the Yellow Jacket - as an official school mascot. The term Rambling Wreck was first applied to a 1914 Ford owned by Floyd Field, Dean of Men. In the first published reference to the car as the “Rambling Wreck” in 1927, the Technique student newspaper spoke out against Field when he considered trading the car, but he did it anyway. Tech officials decided in the late 1950s that the school needed an official car that would be known forever as the Rambling Wreck. Dean of Students James Dull began a search for a pre-1940 vintage model, and finally found one-parked in front of his apartment building. The owner, Capt. Ted J. Johnson, a Delta Air Lines pilot, had just finished restoring the 1930 Ford Cabriolet Sport Coupe, which he intended to give to his son as a gift. Johnson decided to let Tech have the car for $1,000 in May, 1961. He later returned the purchase price in the form of a contribution to the Alexander-Tharpe Fund, fulfilling a desire to go on record as having given the Rambling Wreck to Georgia Tech.
White & Gold
The Yellow Jacket Conflicting accounts exist as to the origins and beginnings of the Yellow Jacket, but the nickname did not grow out of the familiar six-legged insect; rather, the insect mascot, known as “Buzz,” grew out of the nickname. The first known reference to Tech students as “Yellowjackets” appeared in the Atlanta Constitution in 1905 and came into common usage at that time. The name, spelled as one word, was first used to describe supporters who attended Tech athletic events, dressed in yellow coats and jackets. The actual mascot was conceived at a later, undetermined date. Other nicknames which have applied to Tech teams include the Engineers; the Tecks, the first known nickname which was phased out around 1910; the Blacksmiths, common between 1902 and 1904; and the Golden Tornado, thought to be created by sportswriters when John Heisman led Tech to its first national title in 1917.
In the fall of 1891, before Georgia Tech organized a football team of its own, a game was scheduled between Auburn and Georgia. A rivalry was already established in baseball between Tech and Georgia, so Tech students were invited to the game to cheer, of course, for Auburn. The students appointed a committee to recommend colors to be worn and cheers to be used at the game. The committee suggested white and gold, and about 200 students attended the game wearing those colors. In 1893, when Georgia Tech’s football team played Georgia for the first time, a group of young women from the Lucy Cobb Institute for Girls attended the game to cheer for Tech, dressed in white and gold. Oh well it’s up with the White and Gold Down with the Red and Black Georgia Tech is out for the victory We’ll drop the battle axe on Georgia’s head When we meet her, our team is sure to beat her Down on the old farm there will be no sound Till our bow-wows rip through the air When the battle is over, Georgia’s team will be found With the Yellow Jackets swarming around.
TRADITION RICH
These are just a few of the many traditions surrounding Georgia Tech athletics The Fight Song The Georgia Tech fight song grew out of an old folk ballad, “The Sons of the Gamboliers.” Howard D. Cutter, a member of Tech’s first graduating class (Mechanical Engineering, 1892), wrote in the November-December 1942 issue of the Georgia Tech Alumnus that the “Ramblin’ Wreck” had its origins during the first two years after Tech opened in 1888, inspired when the entire student body traveled to Athens to see Tech’s baseball team defeat Georgia. By the early 1900s, “Ramblin’ Wreck” was an established tradition. The earliest existing published version of the song appeared in the Blueprint, the Institute’s yearbook, in 1908. In 1910, Michael A. Greenblatt, Tech’s first bandmaster, discovered the band playing “Ramblin’ Wreck” to the tune of “Sons of the Gamboliers,” and made his first arrangement of the song in the form of a handwritten manuscript. When Frank Roman succeeded Greenblatt as bandmaster in 1911, he wrote a new adaptation of “Ramblin’ Wreck,” accompanied by many trumpet flourishes, that became nationally known. His is the version that continues to be popular today. The fame of the song spread to such proportions that in 1959 it was sung by Richard
10
Nixon and Nikita Khrushchev at their historic face-to-face meeting in Moscow. In 1984, the law firm of Newton, Hopkins & Ormsby investigated the copyright of “Ramblin’ Wreck” and found that a number of people have had various versions of the song copyrighted. The original version of the song is in the public domain and can be played without payment of royalties. I’m a Ramblin’ Wreck from Georgia Tech and a hell of an engineer, A helluva, helluva, helluva, helluva, hell of an engineer, Like all the jolly good fellows, I drink my whiskey clear, I’m a Ramblin’ Wreck from Georgia Tech and a hell of an engineer. Oh, if I had a daughter, sir, I’d dress her in White and Gold, And put her on the campus, to cheer the brave and bold. But if I had a son, sir, I’ll tell you what he’d do. He would yell, “To Hell with Georgia,” like his daddy used to do. Oh, I wish I had a barrel of rum and sugar three thousand pounds, A college bell to put it in and a clapper to stir it around. I’d drink to all good fellows who come from far and near. I’m a ramblin’, gamblin’, hell of an engineer.

TOTAL PERSON PROGRAM Preparing for life beyond the court
A
t Georgia Tech, the day the cheering stops will still be a time of celebration. An athlete’s playing days will end, but the Total Person Program ensures that Tech student-athletes will be prepared for the career and personal challenges ahead. Through this multifaceted program, the brainchild of former Director of Athletics Dr. Homer Rice, Rambling Wreck student-athletes have the opportunity to learn the elements of success beyond the classroom or playing field. They gain skills that remain with them for a lifetime, preparing for the career and personal challenges ahead. During his 17-year tenure from 1980-97, Rice rebuilt Georgia Tech’s athletic fortunes with an emphasis not just in fund-raising and facilities but in equally important areas such as academic support and life skills. Since Rice started the Total Person Program in 1980, it has developed into the most comprehensive student-athlete support system in the country. Rice’s model has been adopted nationwide as the foundation for the NCAA’s Life Skills Program. Because of the success of the Total Person Program, Georgia Tech was one of three schools chosen to consult with the NCAA on this project. The foundation laid by Rice has been built upon with a continued emphasis on all aspects of the student-athlete’s life. Addressing virtually every area of a well-rounded educational experience, the Total Person Program, under the direction of Leah Thomas, focuses on the following components: Academic Support and Degree Completion Life Skills Career Planning and Placement Counseling and Wellness Leadership Honors Community Outreach

Tradition in CollegiateTennis Consistency. It is the mark of true excellence in any endeavor. However, in today’s intercollegiate athletics, competition has become so balanced and so competitive that it is virtually impossible to maintain a high level of consistency. Yet the Atlantic Coast Conference has defied the odds. Now, in its 57th year of competition, the ACC has long enjoyed the reputation as one of the strongest and most competitive intercollegiate conferences in the nation. And that is not mere conjecture, the numbers support it. Men’s tennis in the ACC has displayed tremendous success on and off the court since it was introduced as a conference sport in 1954. The record of achievement continued in 2009 with an NCAA doubles championship, as Virginia’s Dominic Inglot and Michael Shabaz became the first doubles team from the ACC to win the NCAA Doubles Championship, defeating No. 2 seed John-Patrick Smith and Davey Sandgren of Tennessee 3-6, 7-6(4), 6-4 in the finals May 25 at College Station, Texas. Inglot and Shabaz were the first unseeded team to win the title since 2003. With the title, Virginia won an NCAA Individual Championship for the third consecutive year. Former Cavalier Somdev Devvarman won the 2007 and 2008 NCAA singles championships. The last school to win NCAA Individual titles in three consecutive years was Stanford from 1998-2000. Seven ACC teams competed in the NCAA Tournament for the second time in 2009. It marked the sixth straight year at least seven ACC schools participated in postseason play. After setting a new mark three years ago with nine schools qualifying for the NCAA Tournament, the ACC shattered that record in 2007 as 10 teams were picked to compete in the national postseason event. The ACC has established itself as one of the nation’s premier conferences in the sport, as evident by national rankings, national victories and the numerous accolades (national and regional) collected by both ACC student-athletes and coaches over the years. In 2009, five ACC schools capped off the season ranked in the final ITA Team Rankings Top 25 poll, with Virginia’s No. 3 ranking setting the pace for the third straight year. The ACC-champion Cavaliers entered NCAA play unbeaten and advanced to the NCAA quarterfinal round before finishing with a 32-1 record. Virginia was the No. 1 overall seed in the 2009 NCAA Division I Men’s Tennis Championships for the second straight year. Twelve student-athletes from the ACC took part in NCAA singles competition, as did five doubles teams. The 2009 All-America team featured 11 ACC representatives. The league has found similar success off the court with at least 35 studentathletes selected Academic All-Americans by ITA, CoSIDA or both. Over 170 men’s tennis student-athletes have received All-American citations by the ITA, NCAA or both national organizations, which includes the league’s first ITA National Player of the Year in Virginia’s Devvarman. Duke’s Phillip King, the first player in league history to be named ITA All-American four times, was recognized as the ITA National Rookie of the Year in 2001. The ACC also boasts a distinguished coaching lineage in three-time National Coach of the Year Chuck Kriese of Clemson and Virginia assistant coach Tony Bresky. Kriese was named both the ITA and USTA National Coach of the Year in 1981 and later picked up the USTA award again in 1986. Bresky was tabbed ITA National Assistant Coach of the Year in 2005. The Cavaliers’ Brian Boland added to the legacy by winning National Coach of the Year honors in 2008. In addition, the league has had a coaching staff member (head and/or assistant) tabbed for regional honors nine times in the last 10 years. Kriese notched the top coaching honor in the Southern region five times (1981, 1984-86, 1988), while Duke’s Jay Lapidus was a four-time recipient (1995, 1999, 2001, 2003) in Region II. Since 2000, the ACC has been well-represented in the NCAA Tournament with North Carolina and Duke regular postseason contenders every year. Wake Forest has been an NCAA participant since 2001. With the NCAA conducting a single elimination tournament since 1977, the ACC has been a regular conference contender in all except one year (1991). The league has had at least one team advance to the NCAA quarterfinals in 21 of the past 33 years, including the last six seasons.

Dan Radakovich Director of Athletics Fourth Year at Georgia Tech
N
ow in his fifth year as Director of Athletics, Dan Radakovich has helped take a Georgia Tech program rich in athletic tradition to a higher level of excellence and national respect. Since Radakovich arrived on The Flats in 2006, Georgia Tech has competed for conference and national championships across the board, Yellow Jacket studentathletes have excelled in the classroom and Tech’s facilities rate among the finest in the nation. Radakovich signed a new five-year contract in June of 2010. The 2009-10 academic year was one of the most successful campaigns in nearly 120 years of Georgia Tech athletics: • Yellow Jacket teams combined to produce a won-loss record of 213-80 (.727), the highest winning percentage at Georgia Tech in modern history. • Georgia Tech participated in NCAA postseason play and/or bowl games in football, men’s and women’s basketball, men’s and women’s tennis, volleyball, baseball, softball and golf. • Tech was the only school in the country to play in a BCS bowl game (Orange Bowl), host an NCAA baseball regional and advance to the second round of the NCAA men’s basketball tournament. • The Yellow Jackets won four ACC championships – in football, golf, softball and women’s tennis. • Academically, Georgia Tech’s Academic Progress Report (APR) scores improved significantly for the third consecutive year. Five Yellow Jacket teams were recognized nationally by the NCAA for producing an APR score that ranked among the top 10 percent in each respective sport. • The football team won the ACC championship outright for the first time since 1990, played in a bowl game for the 13th straight year, two Yellow Jackets were taken in the first round of the NFL draft, and Paul Johnson became the first coach ever to be named ACC Coach of the Year in his first two seasons in the conference. • The men’s and women’s basketball teams both won 23 games and both earned NCAA Tournament bids. Coach Paul Hewitt’s team advanced to the championship game of the ACC Tournament. • The baseball and softball teams both earned top-eight national seeds and hosted NCAA regionals. Women’s tennis also hosted NCAA 1st- and 2nd-round matches. • The baseball team produced a school record-tying 10 draft picks. • The ACC champion golf team advanced to the final eight of the NCAA championships. • The volleyball team, under first-year coach Tonya Johnson, earned the program’s first NCAA bid since 2004. • Men’s swimming (Gal Nevo) and men’s track and field (Alphonso Jordan and Steve Marcelle) produced some of the most successful and most decorated athletes in those sports’ history at Tech. The construction of new facilities or upgrades to existing ones has been a focus of Radakovich’s tenure. This past year, Radakovich began laying the groundwork for a proposed basketball replacement facility that
20
will eventually be one of the top basketball complexes in the ACC. The previous year, Shirley Clements Mewborn Field, home for Tech’s softball program, was unveiled prior to the start of the 2009 season and was ultimately showcased on ESPN when the Yellow Jackets hosted an NCAA Super Regional. The Zelnak Center, a practice facility for Georgia Tech basketball, was in place prior to the start of the 200910 season. Bobby Dodd Stadium continues to receive cosmetic and functional upgrades, including a new video board last fall. Other facility upgrades under Radakovich include the transformation of Tech’s former football locker room on the ground floor of the Edge Athletic Center into a new Technology Center, which benefits academic support services for all Yellow Jacket student-athletes. Outside the competition venues, Radakovich has directed an overhaul of the annual giving and donation structure for Tech athletics, anchored by the TECH Fund, which establishes minimum giving levels tied to season tickets in various seating areas of Bobby Dodd Stadium and Alexander Memorial Coliseum. Radakovich also initiated the Athletic Director’s Initiative Fund, started in June, 2006, which has raised in cash and pledges more than $12 million. A recent gift from the Henry F. McCamish, Jr., family for the renovation of Alexander Memorial Coliseum, could be worth up to $15 million toward that project. Named Georgia Tech’s Director of Athletics on February 22, 2006, Radakovich came to Georgia Tech after five years as senior associate athletics director at LSU (2001-06). He previously served as the Athletics Director at American University in 2000-01. That followed stints as associate athletics director at South Carolina (1994-2000) and Long Beach State (1989-94) as well as two years as the athletics business manager at Miami (FL) (1983-85). Just the seventh Director of Athletics in Tech history, Radakovich was named by then-Institute President Dr. Wayne Clough to succeed Dave Braine, who retired after nearly nine years in the post. Radakovich also follows in the footsteps of storied names such as John Heisman, Bobby Dodd and Homer Rice. A graduate of Center High School near Aliquippa, Pa., and a member of its Alumni Hall of Fame, Radakovich, 52, became a football letterwinner and student coach at Indiana University of Pennsylvania, where he graduated in 1980 with a bachelor of science degree in finance. He was enshrined into the Beaver County Sports Hall of Fame in April, 2008, and was recognized as a Distinguished Alumni from IUP in March, 2009. Radakovich added a master’s degree in business administration from Miami (FL) in 1982. He also completed the Sports Management Institute’s executive education program in 1992. He is married to the former Marcie McDonald, and the couple has two children, Christian (20) and Grant (16). Christian is a junior Industrial Engineering major at Georgia Tech.

Kenny Thorne Head Coach 13th year at Tech 159-124 overall record (.562) Georgia Tech, 1989
K
enny Thorne recorded one of the most successful tennis careers by a player from the state of Georgia, winning seven pro titles and defeating four of the world’s top-10 players in the 1990’s. Some of Thorne’s notable victories include wins over Richard Krajicek, Wayne Ferreira, Mark Philippoussis and Todd Martin. As a pro, he achieved his highest singles ranking of No. 121 and a doubles ranking of No. 67. Thorne brings his love of tennis and impressive professional playing experience to his alma mater, Georgia Tech. Charged with building the Georgia Tech tennis program back to the level it was when he was a player, Thorne was named to the newly-created position of Director of Tennis on June 30, 1998, becoming the ninth head coach in Tech men’s tennis history. Thorne took over the reins of the Tech program after spending one season as the team’s assistant coach, wasting little time in moving toward his ultimate goal of turning the Yellow Jackets into a perennial contender. The Yellow Jackets have reached the NCAA Tournament nine times in his 12 years at the helm. After a two-year absence, the 2010 team reached the second round of the tournament, finished fourth in the Atlantic Coast Conference and was ranked No. 24 in the final ITA poll after posting an 18-8 dual-match record. The 18 wins were the most for the Jackets under Thorne, the final ITA ranking was the team’s highest in his 12 seasons, and the 7-4 conference record was the squad’s best, percentage-wise, since 2001. Ten of Thorne’s Tech teams have finished the spring ranked among the top 50 teams in the ITA rankings. Thorne has rebuilt the Tech squad around threetime All-ACC honoree Guillermo Gomez, who earned ITA/Mideast Regional and ACC Rookie of the Year as a freshman and ITA All-America honors the last two years, and played his way into the NCAA Singles Championships three times. He was joined on the All-ACC squad in 2010 by sophomore Kevin King. During his time on the Flats, Thorne has coached five ITA All-Americans, including Scott Schnugg (2003, 2004), who was the first Yellow Jacket to be named in 15 years, and Gomez, who each have been named twice. Along with Schnugg and Gomez, Thorne has had six different players earn entry into the NCAA Men’s Singles Championship. Gomez is the first to earn a bid three times. The 2007 squad overcame some major adversity to earn its eighth NCAA Tournament bid in nine seasons. Thorne’s team finished the season with 4-7 conference record including upsetting then No. 10 Florida State and No. 20 Clemson in back-to-back matches during the season. He also guided David North to his first NCAA Singles Championships, becoming the 44th individual in school history to play in the tournament.
22
In 2006, the Georgia Tech men’s tennis team once again earned a spot in the NCAA Tournament under Thorne and reached the second round for third time. The team finished over .500 for the sixth consecutive season with a 12-10 record. In 2005, Tech had a doubles team compete in the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 1994 and also had an individual compete in the NCAA Singles Championship. Tech would also receive an at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament, where it fell to Vanderbilt in the first round by a score of 4-3. Jose Muguruza advanced to the Round of 32 while the doubles team of North and Rajevac, who earned an at-large bid into the tournament, advanced to the quarterfinals and earned All-American honors. North and Rajevac become the fourth players that Thorne has coached to earn AllAmerican accolades. During the 2004 season, Tech reached the NCAA Tournament and had an individual compete in the NCAA Singles Championship. After opening the dual-match season with a 5-0 record, the Yellow Jackets fell to three ranked opponents, but then regrouped to win five consecutive matches, including wins against Minnesota and Oregon and conference foes Wake Forest and Clemson. After dropping tough matches to Virginia and Georgia, Tech finished out the regular season winning five of six matches, including a 5-2 win over Florida State and a 4-3 come from behind match at South Carolina. During the 2003 campaign, Georgia Tech earned a spot in the NCAA Tournament and climbed into the 14th spot in the national rankings midway through the year. The Jackets also boasted their first All-America honorees since 1988, as the doubles team of Roger Anderson and Scott Schnugg earned the honor after finishing the year as the country’s 10th-ranked tandem. The duo also earned All-ACC honors after winning the league’s Flight One Doubles title. Tech finished with a 12-10 record and notched seven wins over ranked opponents, including a 4-2 victory over ninth-ranked Texas on February 16. In 2002, Tech defeated eight ranked teams and reached the finals of the ACC Championship, en route to a 15-11 dual-match record, while also reaching the NCAA Tournament for the third time in four years under Thorne. In the ACC Tournament, the Jackets upset top-seeded and 14th-ranked Duke in the semifinals by a 4-0 score and ended the Blue Devils four-year reign as ACC Champions. On an individual level, Roger Anderson earned All-ACC honors for the second time and earned his first berth in the NCAA Individual Championship, becoming the first Tech player to do so since 1999.

nationally, joining LSU’s Jeff Brown, to lead the same school to post-season competition as a player, assistant coach and head coach since the current NCAA team dualmatch format was instituted in 1977. (Prior to 1977, team finishes were determined by an accumulation of points based on individual play.)
