2010 Season Preview An impressive mix of youth and experience have come together under head coach John Natale to form the 2010 Hartford women’s soccer team. As the Hawks look to return to the summit of the America East for the first time since 2006, they will rely on a solid core of returning players and incorporate ten standout newcomers into the mix. The Hawks return seven starters from last year’s squad, including three of their top four scorers and an America East All-Rookie Team selection. Highlighting the returners are four seniors, including a lynchpin of their defense in Michelle Babin and their third leading scorer from last season, Mary Beth Hamilton. Babin, who made a career-best 18 starts last season, was a consistent and reliable defender for Natale’s squad, helping the Hawks to five shutouts and just 1.19 goals per game. Hamilton was a persistent force on the front lines for the Hawks. She shined in the team’s matchup with local rival Central Connecticut, pouring in two goals and an assist to earn America East Player of the Year recognition.

Joining Babin and Hamilton as senior leaders for Natale are Karen Ray and Ashley Michaud. Ray, who transferred to Hartford from Central Connecticut, started the first three games of the 2009 season before a knee injury prematurely ended her season. This year, she will be looked to as a versatile midfielder/defender who should see significant time. Michaud walked onto the team towards the end of last season, but did not see action. She will add valuable depth to the defense in her first full campaign with the Hawks. Also returning for Hartford is Breeanna Robinson, a 2008 America East All-Rookie Team member. Robinson closed last season strong with two goals and an assist in the Hawks’ final two games, earning recognition as the league’s last regular season Player of the Week. Robinson led the Hawks with four goals and 12 total points and returns for her junior position, where she will spearhead the Hartford offensve from the forward position. Alex Uscilla did not get on the field as a freshman in 2008, but that changed last season in her sophomore year. Making 17 starts in 18 appearances, Uscilla became one of the

hartford hawks women’s soccer

biggest offensive threats for the Hawks, finishing fourth on the team with ten total points, including four goals. Uscilla scored the gamewinner against Northern Colorado for Hartford’s first win of the season and added two tallies against Central Connecticut. Another 2008 America East All-Rookie honoree, Lauren Brodeur, returns for her junior campaign as the Hawks’ goalkeeper. Last season, Brodeur played every minute in goal for the Hawks, posting five shutouts and finishing fourth in the conference with an .825 save percentage. An America East All-Academic selection last year, Brodeur rejected a career high 14 shots in the Hawks’ 2-0 shutout of Albany on October 22. Also helping to stifle opposing offenses in front of Brodeur are juniors Michele DeSanti and Amber Smyth. In addition to starting 16 games as a lockdown defender, DeSanti notched her first collegiate points in the season finale agaisnt Vermont, scoring a goal and assisting on another. Smyth also netted her first goal, the opening tally agaisnt Iona. Joining that talented and deep junior class are three junior college transfers, Jenee King, Amanda Lo Bello and Nicole Weil. King

2010 Season Preview comes to West Hartford from Holyoke Community College, where she led the team to the 2009 MCCAC State Championship, scoring six goals and four assists. Last season, she was recognized as a NJCAA Division III AllAmerican. Lo Bello and Weil, along with sophomore teammate Christiana Lang, have traversed the continent to reach the University of Hartford, coming to the Hawks from junior college soccer powerhouse Cypress College in California. All three shined for last season’s 17-3-3 team. Lang joins a sophomore class headlined by last year’s America East All-Rookie Team selection, Caitlin Alves. Alves will look to build on a stellar freshman campaign in which she appeared in all 17 games, making nine starts and scoring her first collegiate goal against Bryant. The Hawks boast seven other sophomores, including goal scorer Shealagh Begley and point scorers Julianne Oberholtzer and Giovanna Velardo. Begley netted the Hawks’ only goal against New Hampshire, while Oberholtzer and Velardo each dished out an assist. Also returning to the sophomore class are Caroline Dixon, who will add depth to the attack, defender Lauren Muser, and backup goalkeeper Shelby Little. In addition, Amelia Pereira will enter Hartford as a sophomore. Coming from Portugal by way of Martin Methodist College in Tennessee, Pereira was an unstoppable offesnive force at Martin last season, scoring 15 goals in 21 games. Five freshman make up a class focused on offense. Three forwards join a forward/midfielder and a midfielder in their first collegiate season, hoping to bolster an offense which scored

just one goal over its first six America East games last year. Arielle Aikens, Ashley Cross and Nicole Silenok come to Natale’s team as attacking forwards. Aikens attended Blair Academy in New Jersey and left as the school’s all-time leading goal scorer with an eye-popping 99 scores. Cross helped Maple Hill High School in Albany to two finals appearances, while Silenok was the leading goal scorer at John Jay in South Salem, N.Y. last season in the second of two straight league titles for her team. Raelynn Mikell is a forward/midfielder from Gilbertsville, Pa., where she helped Boyertown Area to two straight PAC-10 titles and was named the league’s Most Valuable Player last season. Lizzy Clarke comes across the pond from Roade Secondary School in Northamton, England. There, she played five years of soccer, helping the team to the 2005 league title. Coach Natale’s team opens the season on August 21 with a home matchup with Long Island at Al-Marzook Field at Alumni Stadium. The Hawks hit the road after that, going to Philadelphia to take part in the Temple Tournament. In conjunction with Central Connecticut, Hartford will host the Hartford Hawks Soccer Weekend against La Salle and Columbia September 3-5. After five more non-conference tune-ups, including home matches with Princeton and Saint Joseph’s, the Hawks open America East play at Stony Brook on September 26. The first home conference game is four days later against Binghamton, with Senior Night scheduled for October 21 against UMBC.

JOHN NATALE

head coach ~ Seventh Season John Natale returns for his seventh season as head coach of the Hartford women’s soccer team. Under his guidance, the Hawks have made four America East Championship appearances and one trip to the NCAA Tournament.

with an unbeaten streak of 10 games before falling to 12th-ranked Rutgers in the first round. Hartford, which went undefeated in conference play, knocked off two nationally-ranked opponents and won America East regular season and championship titles. The Hawks also captured four of the six major postseason awards given out by the conference, including Natale and his staff being named America East Coaching Staff of the Year.

Natale has led Hartford to winning seasons in three of the last four years. Last season the Hawks went 6-10-2 overall and finished seventh in the America East standings. Hartford also had two players honored by the conference, including a First Team All-Conference and an All-Rookie performer.

In six seasons Natale has produced 18 all-conference selections, including eight on the first team. In 2006 three players earned major awards–Meagan Riemer (Striker of the Year), Elizabeth Cook (Goalkeeper of the Year) and Kellie Leyland (Defensive Player of the Year). The trio also earned spots on the NSCAA All-Region and NEWISA All-New England teams. Cook and Riemer were first team picks for each while Leyland was a second team choice.

The highlight of his coaching career came in 2006 when he led Hartford to an America East Championship and an appearance in the NCAA Tournament. The Hawks rebounded from a tough start to finish as one of the hottest teams in the country. The team entered NCAA play

hartford hawks women’s soccer

Natale began his collegiate head coaching career in 2004 with the Hawks, leading a young squad to the first round of the America East Championship. He is the fifth head coach in the history of the program.

In the summer of 2006, Natale coached the Western Mass Lady Pioneers of the W-League, one of the most highlyregarded women’s leagues in the world. The team finished with an 11-3-1 record and advanced to the semifinals of the Eastern Conference playoffs for the first time in team history. Natale–who coached three all-league selections, including the U19 Player of the Year and the league’s scoring champion–was named W-League Coach of the Year. Before coming to Hartford, Natale was an assistant coach for the Boston Breakers in 2003 and the Philadelphia Charge the previous two years. In that role, he was involved in all aspects of coaching, including practice planning and coaching, player skill development, scouting, and video game and player analysis. Both franchises reached the playoffs each year of Natale’s tenure in the WUSA. He had the opportunity to gain valuable experience under the guidance of two of the WUSA’s more successful head coaches–Boston’s Pia Sundhage (2002-03 WUSA Coach

of the Year) and Philadelphia’s Mark Krikorian (2001-02 WUSA Coach of the Year). Krikorian is a former Hartford women’s head coach (1996-2000). The Hawks head coaching position represents a homecoming of sorts for Natale, who was a Hartford women’s soccer assistant coach in 1999 (17-4-0 record that year). Prior to that, Natale coached the Wethersfield High School boy’s team for two years. Wethersfield won the Class L state title in 1999 and he was named conference coach of the year that season. Natale, a Wethersfield native, excelled as a player at Eastern Connecticut State University where he was a captain and participated in the All-New England Senior Bowl. He graduated from ECSU in 1997 with a bachelor’s degree in physical education. He also played professionally for the Western Mass Pioneers of the USL.

Shimmin also raked in honors from the New England Women’s Intercollegiate Soccer Association (First Team All-Northeast), the National Soccer Coaches Association of America (First Team All-Northeast), and Soccer Buzz (Honorable Mention All-American). In 2003, Shimmin finished third in the nation in assists per game and 25th in points per game while setting a school record with 16 assists. She also scored the game-winning goal in Central Connecticut’s first-ever NCAA Championship victory, a 1-0 win over Boston College.

She also represented England as a member of both the U19 and the full national teams and played in Iceland.

Academic Excellence In addition to its tradition of success on the playing field, the Hartford women’s soccer program has been exemplary in the classroom. The Hawks have posted the top team grade point average in the conference for six of the past nine years, and last season the team turned in a 3.25 GPA. Additionally, 13 members of the team posted a grade-point average of 3.0 or better and earned a spot on the America East Academic Honor Roll. The success women’s soccer has enjoyed in the classroom is a microcosm for a department-wide commitment to academic excellence. Hartford posted an overall student-athlete GPA of 3.01, and out of 342 student-athletes, 52 percent (177) posted a 3.0 or better during their athletic seasons. Nearly 27 percent (90) posted a 3.5 or better. The Hawks are also perennial contenders for the America East Academic Cup, an award that goes to the school with the highest overall student-athlete GPA. Hartford last won the award in 1997. Seven women’s soccer players have been named the America East Scholar-Athlete for their sport. The award is given to the top overall scholarathlete of each sport the America East sponsors. Elizabeth Cook (right) was Hartford’s most recent winner, earning the distinction in 2006 and 2007. In 2008, both Kacey Busque and Laura Guigli represented Hartford on the America East All-Academic Team. Busque was also named to the ESPN The Magazine Academic All-District First Team, an award that is given out annually by the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA).

Katharina Lindner Verizon Academic All-American of the Year In 2002, senior women’s soccer player Katharina Lindner became the University of Hartford’s first Verizon Academic AllAmerican of the Year, an award given out each year to one Division I women’s soccer player by the College Sports Information Directors of America. Lindner, a double major in communications and psychology, finished her academic career with a perfect 4.0 cumulative grade point average. She was also named to the Verizon Academic All-America First Team for the second straight season. “Katharina is a model student-athlete,” said Director of Athletics Pat Meiser. “We are so proud of her accomplishments. She’s been enormously successful on the field, and even more outstanding in the classroom.” Lindner was also a repeat selection as the America East Scholar-Athlete for women’s soccer, an honor given out by the conference to the top scholar-athletes in each of its 20 sports. As a four-year starter at forward and midfield, Lindner started and played in all but one game during her career and stands tied for the most games played and games started (87) at Hartford. A team captain for three seasons, she led the Hawks to two America East championships and four consecutive NCAA appearances. She was also a four-time all-conference selection and a First Team NSCAA All-American in 2000.

HawksHISTORY Athletics The University of Hartford celebrates its 27th year competing at the Division I level in 2009-10. Division I competition in all sports began in 1984-85, and the ensuing 26 years have been keynoted by success. The following is a sampling of some of the achievements. Hartford has fielded NCAA or national tournament teams in six sports: women’s basketball (2002, 2005, 2006, 2008, 2010), men’s golf (198595, 2001, 2007), women’s soccer (1989-92, 1994-95, 1997-2002, 2006), men’s soccer (1991-92, 1996), men’s tennis (2002) and women’s volleyball (1993).

Three former Hartford student-athletes stand out among those who have played professionally. Vin Baker, who starred as an All-American on the basketball court for the Hawks, played 13 seasons in the NBA. A four-time NBA All-Star, he averaged 15.0 points and 7.4 rebounds per game in 791 career games. Baker was picked eighth overall in the June 1993 NBA draft. At the time he was the highest draft pick ever from a Connecticut college or university. Jeff Bagwell, who played third base for Hartford from 1987 to 1989 and is the New England career leader in batting average at .413, played first base for the Houston Astros. In his 16 years with the Astros he hit .297 with 449 home runs and 1,529 runs batted in. He ranks among Houston’s career leaders in batting average, slugging percentage, home runs and RBI. He was the 1994 National League MVP, 1991 Rookie of the Year, and was a four-time All-Star (1994, 1996, 1997, 1999). Men’s golfer Jerry Kelly, who topped the Nike Tour in earnings in 1995, has been impressive in his 12 years playing on

the PGA Tour. He’s topped $2 million in earnings in three of the past six seasons, and he played on the United States President’s Cup team in 2003. In 2002, Kelly was sixth on the PGA money list and finished in the Top 25 at 13 tournaments, including wins at the Sony Open in Hawaii and the Advil Western Open. Men’s golfers Tim Petrovic and Patrick Sheehan have also enjoyed success on the PGA Tour. Petrovic, now in his seventh season, broke through in 2005 with his first career victory at the Zurich Classic. Sheehan is in his fifth year on the PGA Tour and has topped $3 million in career earnings. Other Hartford athletes who are currently playing in the professional ranks include Tracey Kelusky (National Lacrosse League), Earl Snyder (minor league baseball), Chris Doyle (USL First Division soccer), Daniel Antunez (USL), Saralyn Smith (AVP), Rory Glaves (NLL), Todd Richard (NLL), Derek Suddons (NLL), Jason Clark (NLL), Josh Wasson (NLL) and Matt Holman (NLL).

WALTER HARRISON university president G

rowth, vitality, and service to the community are key attributes of Walter Harrison’s first 10 years as president of the University of Hartford. Since his appointment as the University of Hartford’s fifth president in 1998, the University has experienced a period of energy and momentum unmatched in its history. President Harrison has overseen dramatic improvements in academic quality, finances, and

During President Harrison’s tenure, the University has undertaken a vigorous and comprehensive building campaign. Many of the University’s residence halls have been renovated, and Hawk Hall, the University’s new five-story, 208-bed residence for first-year students, was completed during the summer of 2007. The ovalshaped Alumni Plaza, constructed out of concrete of various colors and finishes, now provides students with a large gathering spot on the residential side of campus.

At the heart of this construction campaign are three major new additions to the University’s signature academic programs: The Renée Samuels Center of the Hartford Art School (opened in January 2007), the Integrated Science, Engineering, and Technology Complex (opened in 2005), and the Mort and Irma Handel Performing Arts Center (opened in September 2008), which houses the Dance and Theatre divisions of The Hartt School.

public schools. It is the only private university in the country with two public magnet schools on campus—the University of Hartford Magnet School and the University High School of Science and Engineering. President Harrison’s community involvement is extensive. He serves on the boards of directors of the Connecticut Conference of Independent Colleges and the Hartford Consortium of Higher Education. He is currently the president of the board of the Hartford Stage Company. He serves as trustee or director of a number of other Hartford-area organizations, including the Greater Hartford Arts Council, Saint Francis Hospital and Medical Center, the Connecticut Science Center, and Suffield Academy. He is also a director of WorldBusiness Capital, an international finance firm based in Hartford. Reflecting his longtime interest in intercollegiate athletics, President Harrison chairs the National Collegiate Athletic Association’s Committee on Academic Performance, the group charged with implementing academic reforms among the nation’s leading intercollegiate athletic programs, and serves on a number of other NCAA committees. He is the immediate past chair of the NCAA Executive Committee. He also serves on the Presidential Advisory Committee of the Association of Governing Boards. All this is a long way from President Harrison’s beginnings as a scholar of American literature and culture. A native of Pittsburgh, he graduated from Trinity College in Hartford in 1968, then earned a master’s degree from the University of Michigan in

1969. After an interim of three years to serve as a captain in the United States Air Force, President Harrison earned a doctorate from the University of California–Davis. His doctoral dissertation, “Out of Play: Baseball Fiction from Pulp to Art,” was one of the earliest scholarly treatments of baseball and its place in American life. In 1982 President Harrison left full-time teaching to take an administrative position at Colorado College. He joined Gehrung Associates University Relations Counselors in 1985, becoming president of the firm shortly thereafter. In 1989 President Harrison moved to the University of Michigan, where he became vice president of university relations and secretary of the university. President Harrison and his wife, Dianne, a scholar of 19th-century Victorian literature and mystery literature, make their home in Russell House, the president’s residence at the University of Hartford.

volleyball) have won America East Conference championships and either reached NCAA Division I tournament or national postseason play. Basketball, in particular, has emerged with Meiser’s hiring of Jennifer Rizzotti. The women’s basketball team has been crowned America East Conference champion and reached the NCAA Tournament in 2002, 2005, 2006, 2008 and 2010. The men’s team set a school record with 18 wins in 2007-08 and advanced to the America East Championship finals for the first time in school history.

Revenue enhancement has also been an area of growth for Hartford under Meiser’s leadership.

The philosophy we endorse as part of the Hartford Hawks strength and conditioning program is quite simple. We are seeking the best gains, in the least amount of time, in the safest way possible. All training sessions are supervised by the strength and conditioning staff to augment results and reduce any chance for injury. We endorse a variety of modalities, and forms of training, and are constantly looking to improve the program to make it more efficient. As a student-athlete your time will be limited due to class schedule, practice time, travel, homework, eating, sleeping, and hopefully some form of a social life.
