GASPAR

Head Coach • Fifth Season • Hartford ’78

Dan Gaspar, formerly a goalkeeper coach for the world-renowned Por tuguese club team FC Porto, returns for his fifth season as head coach of the Hartford men’s soccer team. Under his guidance, the Hawks have made backto-back America East Tournament appearances in 2007 and 2008. Gaspar, who was named head coach in 2005, is the eighth coach in program history. Gaspar has led the Hawks to a 23-29-18 overall record while producing 14 all-conference selections, including four first team selections. In 2007, Hartford keeper Matt Glasear was named the America East Goalkeeper of the Year. Last season, Gaspar and the Hawks went 7-8-3 overall and finished fifth in the America East standings with a 3-4-1 mark in conference play, while making their second-straight conference tournament appearance. Throughout his tenure at Hartford, Gaspar has also been instrumental in increasing the fan base at Hartford, which for 2008 ranked 39th nationally, to an 814 per-game average. Hartford placed four players on all-conference teams last season. Juniors Ivan Guarin and Carlos Villa garnered first team honors, while newcomers Pat Boucher and Jorge Rodriguez were all-rookie team selections. Villa also earned a spot on the NSCAA All-Region Third Team. In the 2007 season, Gaspar coached the Hawks to their most successful season since 2003 with a record of 7-4-7, and helped lead the team to its first America East Tournament appearance since 2003. Gaspar brings a wealth of international soccer experience to Hartford. Five years ago he served as the goalkeeper coach for European Champions FC Porto, where he helped lead the team to a World Intercontinental Championship in Japan. Regarded as one of the top goalkeeper coaches in the world, Gaspar trained FC Porto’s Vitor Baia, who was selected as the UEFA’s Best European Goalkeeper in 2004.

A native of South Glastonbury, CT, Gaspar made history in 1993 when he became the first American born soccer coach to accept a full-time coaching position in Europe with Sporting Lisbon of the Portuguese First Division. As goalkeeper coach, he helped lead Sporting Lisbon to the Portuguese National Cup title in 1995. This past summer, Gaspar joined the Portuguese Football Federation’s national team coaching staff in preparation for the team’s World Cup Qualifiers. Reunited with Professor Carlos Queiroz, the current Head Coach of Portugal, Gaspar had the opportunity to train Ronaldo, who is considered by many football fans and players to be the greatest striker in the history of the game. In 2003, Gaspar returned to Portugal to serve as goalkeeper coach for SL Benfica where he helped lead the team to the Portuguese Cup Championship under head coach Antonio Camacho, the former coach of the Spanish national team. From 2000-02, Gaspar served as head coach of the Connecticut Wolves in the USL Pro League. In 2002, he led the Wolves to a New England Cup Championship as well as the D3 semifinals. Gaspar has also held coac hing positions with both t h e Po rtuguese and South African national teams as well as an assistant coac hing position with the New York/ New Jersey MetroStars of Major League

Soccer. In 1999, he served as the associate head men’s soccer coach at Central Connecticut State University. During each of his his three stints with the Portuguese national team Gaspar coached alongside Queiroz, the former coach of Real Madrid and current assistant coach of the English Premier League’s Manchester United, as well as Felipe Scolari, the former head coach of the Brazilian national team that won the World Cup in 2002. Gaspar is a technical consultant to Project 2010, a plan commissioned by the U.S. Soccer Federation to win the World Cup in 2010. He is the founder and president of the highly respected Star Goalkeeper Academy as well as the owner and director of the Connecticut Soccer School. He holds a USSF ‘A’ License as well as a NSCAA Advanced National Diploma. Gaspar’s field coaching experience also includes an assistant position with the Japan League Grampus Eight in 1996. He has trained the goalkeepers of the 1996 U.S. Men’s Olympic Team, the 1991 U.S. Women’s National Team, and the

U.S. Men’s Under 18 and Under 17 National Teams in 1998 and 1996. The hiring serves as a homecoming for G a s p a r, who played in goal for the Hawks from 1974-77. He posted a career goalsagainst-average of 1.52, averaging 87 saves and 930 minutes per season. He helped lead Hartford to NCAA Tournament appearances in 1976 and 1977, and an ECAC tournament appearance in 1974. Gaspar was named All-New England and participated in the Senior Bowl in 1977. He was inducted into Hartford’s Athletics Hall of Fame in 2002.

KELLY

CARR

Assistant Coach Fifth Season Maine ’90

Assistant Coach Fourth Season Hartford ’06

He brings experience in the America East to the table as a member of the University of Maine men’s soccer team as an undergraduate. Kelly is a staff instructor for the Connecticut State Coaching Education Program. He was also a former head coach with the Olympic Development Program. At Quinnipiac, Kelly was an assistant coach with the women’s team for the 2004 season. In that time the Bobcats posted an 8-9-2 overall record while qualifying for the Northeast Conference Tournament, where they fell in the semifinal round. In his three seasons (2001-03) at Trinity College, the Bantams posted a 16-25-3 overall record and qualified for the NESCAC Championship in 2002 and 2003. Kelly played 10 years of professional soccer.

Kelly played at Maine from 1986-90 and received a Bachelor of Arts degree in history in 1990. He holds the “A,” “Pro-B” and “National Youth” coaching licenses from the United States Soccer Federation and the “Advanced National Diploma” from the National Soccer Coaches Association of America.

Ryan Carr enters his fourth season on the Hawks’ staff after a four-year career as the starting goalkeeper. Carr is responsible for the development of the goalkeepers as well as the team’s fitness workouts. Carr started every game that he played in goal for the Hawks. He finished his career with a 1.45 goals-against average, allowing only 106 goals and recording 346 saves. He stands second all-time with 6,563 career minutes and is fifth in career saves. Carr, a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) and a certified USA Weightlifting Club Coach, also serves as an assistant strength and conditiong coach for the University of Hartford’s 17 Division I athletic teams. Carr also holds an advanced NSCAA National Goalkeeping Diploma.

Fresh off back-to-back America East Tournament appearances, the 2009 edition of the University of Hartford men’s soccer team has all of the talent needed to have another successful year. The Hawks return one of the most talented groups of upperclassmen, as Coach Gaspar welcomes back 100-percent of last season’s scoring from a team that finished 7-8-3 overall. In addition, five highly-skilled newcomers will look to build on the momentum that was generated last season.

Keepers A trio of returning goalkeepers plus the addition of three new faces to the roster gives Coach Gaspar and the Hawks great options for the 2009 campaign. Senior Nenad Cudic (Novi Sad, Serbia) and sophomore Luke Citriniti (Niskayuna, NY) return for the upcoming season with ample game experience. The pair split time in goal for the Hawks in 2008, helping the defense post eight shutouts - seven of which were victories. Cudic started and played in 12 games for the Hawks, recording three shutouts. In his rookie campaign, Citriniti allowed just four goals in eight games for a 0.62 goalsagainst-average, ranking second overall in the league for that category. Freshman Aaron Utman (Princeton, NJ) joins junior transfer Jordan Bar (Centerville, MA) as newcomers to the Hawks’ roster. Bar comes to Hartford after spending two seasons at Fairfield University and Utman was an all-state selection while at Hopewell Valley Central High School. Sophomore Matt Hament (Richmond, VT) will add depth to the line-up.

Defenders The Hawks return four skillful and experienced defenders to the backline. Hartford’s depth on the defensive side of the pitch could be its best asset in 2009.

2009 Hartford Hawks MEN’S SOCCER

2009 Season Preview

Cedomir Tomcic (Novi Sad, Serbia), Anthony Buehler (Seymour, CT), Bojan Delibasic (Novi Sad, Serbia), and Jorge Rodriguez (East Hartford, CT) - all starters from the 2008 back line that posted eight shutouts - return to the Hawks’ defense. Tomcic proved to be a physical presence in the back line, and is expected to increase his role not just in the backfield, but also as a leader. Following his transfer to Hartford from Mid-Continent University, Tomcic stepped right in to a starting spot, closing out the season with a goal and dished out one assist. Buehler and Delibasic, both juniors, saw time in all 18 games last season. Delibasic, a two-year starter, returns after posting career-best numbers 2008, including a pair of goals and an assist. Rodriguez made an instant impact on the Hawk’s defense in 2008, starting and playing in every game during his first collegiate season. The America East All-Rookie Team selection uses his speed to his advantage, and is expected to play more of an important role this season. Newcomer Ben Poppen (Ankenny, IA) will join the four returning starters for in the battle for playing time in the back field. Poppen, an all-conference second team selection in 2008 while playing at Ankenny High School, was a

2009 Hartford Hawks MEN’S SOCCER

2009 Season Preview member of the 2007 Iowa high school state championship team. In addition, the defender also played for the Des Moines Menace of the Premier Development League, and was a member of the Iowa ODP State Team. Scott St. Cyr (Easton, CT), a sophomore, is recovering from ACL surgery and will hope to return for the second half of the 2009 season.

Midfielders In the midfield, Coach Gaspar has the luxury of looking to the experience of seniors Kevin Hall (Portland, OR), Ivan Guarin (Periera, Colombia) and Howard Wong (St. Catherines, Jamaica) - to lead the unit along with juniors Jamie Thomas (Edinburgh, Scotland) and Sam Groves (Sutton, MA). Hall has appeared in 43 career games - a team-high - for the scarlet red and white, making 32 starts. Wong appeared in 14 games, making 13 starts after transferring from San Jacinto College. He is a speedy wing player who adds bite to the midfield unit. Although an injury limited Guarin’s time on the field in his debut season, the 2008 America East First Team selection ranked third on the team with five points including a pair of goals and an assist. Groves has started in 24-consecutive games dating back to the 2007 season. He tallied a career-best five points last season, assisting on two game-winners against Massachusetts and UBMC. The combination of Guarin and Groves will create a dangerous duo in the center mid-

field for the Hawks. A pair of significant recruits who are capable of making a smooth transition to the college game will make their debut at midfield. Kevin Lewis (Pawcatuck, CT) and James Stamopoulos (Mississauga, Ontario) will join the experienced group of midfielders, providing Coach Gaspar with ample scoring threats from the position. Lewis, a four-year member of the varsity soccer team at Stonington High School, led his high school in scoring and assists as a junior. He played for the Oakwood Soccer Club in the United States Development Academy, participated with the Connecticut Olympic Development Program, and represented the United States with the U-15 National Team. Stamopoulos led Port Credit Secondary School in scoring for three-straight seasons. He was a member of the Canadian U-15 National Team in 2007, and in 2006, he was invited to the Canadian U-15 team’s training camp in Bradenton, FL.

Forwards The forward position is where Coach Gaspar sees the most promising as Hartford returns a host of upperclassmen and 100 percent of its point production from the 2008 season. Senior Carlos Villa (Las Conchas, Guatemala), an allconference first team selection in 2008, returns up frontor the Hawks after an impressive first year at Hartford. The junior college transfer from San Jacinto College

ford. Four match-ups against 2008 NCAA Tournament participants highlight Hartford’s upcoming season. The Hawks will play a 17-game schedule that kicks off on the road against Bryant on September 1. Hartford will welcome Massachusetts to Al-Marzook Field for the home opener on September 5. Following the home debut, the Hawks will hit the road for the Penn State Classic - the lone tournament inked for the 2009 campaign. The tournament includes a pair of games opening with Ohio State on September 11 and concluding with a match-up with the host-team Nittany Lions on September 13.

topped the America East conference with 12 goals (0.67 goals-per-game) while ranking second in the league with 27 points (1.50 points-per-game). Villa also recorded a team-best five-game scoring streak and notched four game-winners, and earned NSCAA All-New England Third Team honors at the conclusion of the season. Patrick Boucher (Cromwell, CT) returns to the Hawks’ front line after making a terrific rookie freshman season. Boucher finished as the second-leading scorer on the team with six points, recording a pair of goals and a pair of assists. The America East All-Rookie Team selection was just one of five Hawks to start and play in every game, and will be expected to take on an increased role up front. Also returning to the 2009 roster is senior Vernon Perinchief (Southampton, Bermuda). Perinchief has played in 36 games, making 13 starts during his three-year tenure with the Hawks.

Hartford wraps up the non-conference schedule with three tough matches, including a home match with second round NCAA Tournament participant Boston College (September 22), followed by road dates with Temple (September 26) and in-state rival Central Connecticut State on September 29. The final seven games of the regular season come against conference foes. The Hawks open America East play at Albany on October 3, followed by back-to-back home dates against Vermont and defending America East champion Boston University. Hartford will also host Binghamton on October 21 and UMBC on October 28.

2009 Season Preview

Only six of the eight teams will qualify for the 2009 America East Championship. All games will be played at the home fields of the highest-seeded team in each round, with the championship game taking place on November 14. The winner will receive the conference’s automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament.

Senior Andreas Blamo (Monrovia, Liberia), who missed the 2008 campaign due to an ACL injury, returns to the Hawks’ attack for his final season. Prior to his injury, Blamo was the America East Striker of the Year and Hartford’s leading point-getter in 2007, leading the squad with six goals and four assists. The return of Blamo for 2009 will add significant quality to an attack that produced 20 goals last season.

Back-to-Back For the first time since the 2002 and 2003 seasons, the Hawks made back-to-back apearances in the America East postseason tournament. In 2007, Hartford made its first America East Tournament appearance since the 2003 season, falling to UMBC in the quarterfinals. Last season, the fifth ranked Hawks earned their second-straight berth to the conference tournament. Hartford dropped a 3-1 decision to the Vermont Catamounts in the quarterfinals. Shutout D The Hawks’ defense shutout its opponents on eight occassions in the 2008 campaign, including all seven of the team’s victories. This is the most shutouts tallied in a season since the 1998 edition of the Hawks posted eight shutouts, all of which were victories. Home Field Advantage In the 2008 season, the Hartford men’s soccer team proved how friendly home field advantage can be, going unbeaten in seven of eight contests. The Hawks went 5-1-2 at Al-Marzook Field, including four-straight home wins. Top of the Conference In his first season with the Hawks, Carlos Villa made noise in the America East, ranking on top of the conference standings in goals (12) and goals per game (0.67). The transfer junior also finished second overall in the league with four game-winning goals and 27 points (1.50 points per game). Instant Impact With just seven familiar faces returning from 2007, Coach Gaspar was depending on the 15 new additions to the 2008 roster to make an instant impact on the offensive side of the pitch. The newcomers did not let the Hawks down, as they accounted for 78% of Hartford’s points in 2008, including 17 of 20 (85%) of the total goals. Hawks Win Post-Season Honors In his four-year tenure with the Hawks, Coach Gaspar has produced 14 all-conference selections. Four members of the 2008 squad earned All-Conference honors. Juniors Ivan Guarin and Carlos Villa were named to the First Team, while newcomers Patrick Boucher and Jorge Rodriguez garnered All-Rookie Team honors.

Now in its third decade of operation, America East has evolved into one of the most comprehensive NCAA Division I conferences with a commitment to broad-based, competitive athletics programs, complementing the academic integrity and missions of the member institutions. Progressive in its approach to its more than 3,200 student-athletes, America East recognizes champions in each of its 20 sports: baseball, men’s and women’s basketball, men’s and women’s cross country, field hockey, men’s and women’s indoor track and field, men’s and women’s lacrosse, men’s and women’s outdoor track and field, men’s and women’s soccer, softball, men’s and women’s swimming and diving, men’s and women’s tennis, and women’s volleyball.

Three women’s basketball teams – Boston University, Hartford and Vermont – reached the postseason, tying a conference record set in 1999. Boston University defeated Fairleigh Dickinson in the first round of the NCAA Men’s Soccer Championship to give America East at least one NCAA win in seven of the last eight years, and the conference RPI (No. 6) was America East’s highest ever. Boston University became the first women’s soccer champion to complete an unbeaten and untied conference slate since 2000 and made its fourth straight NCAA appearance. UMBC (No. 9), which won its second straight America East Men’s Lacrosse Championship, and Stony Brook (No. 20) were ranked in the final USILA national poll, while Albany was also ranked during the season. Sarah Dalton, a first-team All-American in women’s lacrosse, led Boston University to its fifth straight conference title. The Terriers (No. 11) and New Hampshire (No. 20) were ranked in the final IWLCA national poll.

Boston University reached the championship round of its NCAA Softball Regional with wins over Iowa and Auburn, matching the best finish ever by an America East team.

Leadership… •

• • •

Vermont women’s lacrosse standout Kristen Millar was selected the 2009 America East Woman of the Year for a distinguished career in the areas of academic achievement, athletics excellence, service and leadership. Hartford tennis player Rich Lieberman and the Maine softball team were named the America East Male and Female Sportsmanship Award winners. University at Albany appointed George M. Philip as its 18th president, while Stony Brook University named Dr. Samuel Stanley its next president. Patrick Chambers, who helped lead Villanova to the Final Four as a men’s basketball assistant coach in 2009, took over as Boston University’s next head coach. Binghamton’s Kevin Broadus, New Hampshire’s Bill Herrion and Stony Brook’s Steve Pikiell all received contract extensions.

America East in the Pros Several former America East athletes have made a positive impact in the professional ranks. • Three-time All-America East selection Jose Juan Barea (Northeastern) averaged 7.8 points and 3.4 assists in 79 games for the Dallas Mavericks in 2008-09, while three-time America East Player of the Year Malik Rose (Drexel) played in 38 games for the New York Knicks and Oklahoma City Thunder. • Former Hartford star Vin Baker and three-time America East Player of the Year Reggie Lewis (Northeastern), who captained the Boston Celtics at the time of his premature death, combined to make five NBA All-Star appearances during their careers. • Women’s basketball coaches Jennifer Rizzotti (Hartford) and Cindy Blodgett (Maine) have appeared in WNBA action. • Carlos Pena, the 1998 Baseball Scholar-Athlete at Northeastern, has made an impact each of the past three seasons in Tampa Bay, earning American League Comeback Player of the Year honors in 2007, winning an American League Gold Glove at first base in 2008 and making his first All-Star appearance in 2009, while the Minnesota Twins’ Joe Nathan, a former Academic All-American at Stony Brook, played in his fourth Mid-Summer Classic. • Seven former America East men’s lacrosse standouts appeared in the Major League Lacrosse All-Star Game in 2009, including Merrick Thomson, a four-time all-conference selection at Albany who was named the 2008 Warrior Most Improved Player. John Grant (Delaware), the 1999 America East Player of Year, was the league’s Most Valuable Player last season. • Albany’s Steward Ceus became the third America East player taken in the Major League Soccer Draft, going 37th overall to the Colorado Rapids.

Hartford and the Region Hartford and the Region

Dubbed “New England’s Rising Star,” Hartford is enjoying a renaissance fueled by the development of its riverfront. With retail and residential development taking off, downtown Hartford is poised to become a 24-hour hub of culture, arts, and entertainment. Within Hartford’s borders, one can tour the home of Mark Twain, mingle with 5,000-plus years of art at the Wadsworth Atheneum, and explore history at the oldest state house in the country. The Bushnell and Hartford Stage Company offer traveling Broadway shows and other award-winning productions. The XL Center and Comcast Theatre offer top-name concerts while the former is home to the American Hockey League’s Hartford Wolfpack. The Connecticut Convention Center offers an ideal new venue to make your event memorable, from intimate, upscale gatherings to large city-wide experiences. The surrounding Connecticut countryside offers unlimited and varied get-away possibilities, including skiing, spring garden tours, summer winery tours, fall festivals, and two of the world’s largest casino and entertainment complexes, Mohegan Sun and Foxwoods Resort & Casino. Hartford boasts an extraordinarily active arts and entertainment scene with nearly 200 arts, cultural and heritage organizations. The experts agree: Places Rated Almanac ranked Hartford among the top six percent of North American cities for arts and culture. Greater Hartford also runs the 10th-largest United Arts Fund in the nation, demonstrating its strong commitment to the arts. It’s no wonder noted economist Richard Florida has ranked Hartford in the “Top 20” of cool places to live, work, start a family and have fun.

Professional Sports in Connecticut

Connecticut has been the home to many professional or semi-professional sports teams or events. The only current professional team in Connecticut is the Connecticut Sun, a member of the Women’s National Basketball Association. The CT Sun are housed in the Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, CT. The Hartford Wolfpack, an American Hockey League affiliate for the New York Rangers (NHL), are one of two minor league teams who call Connecticut home. The New Britain Rock Cats (Minnesota Twins, MLB) also have their home field in Connecticut. Joining them on the semi-professional ranks is the Connecticut Crush (Women’s Football).

Transportation

Hartford is just a two-hour drive from New York or Boston. Bradley International Airport–gateway to Southern New England–is just minutes from the Capital City. The region is also a part of the AMTRAK system and is home to a number of major bus lines.

Lodgings

Downtown lodgings include the Hilton Hartford Hotel, Hartford Marriott, Crowne Plaza, Sheraton Hartford Hotel, Holiday Inn Express and the Residence Inn Downtown, which offer luxury hotel rooms within an easy walk of the convention center and Adriaen’s Landing. If that’s not enough, there are more than 6,000 hotel rooms within the Greater Hartford region offering visitors a variety of accommodations ranging from casino hotels to quaint New England inns.

Small Classes, Big Opportunity At the University of Hartford, classes are small, but the list of academic offerings is not. The University is a comprehensive, independent institution, offering educational and career programs in 89 undergraduate and 33 graduate areas of study in its seven schools and colleges. It prides itself on providing the intimacy of a liberal arts college with the creativity and intellectual excitement of a university. While the range of studies offered at the University is diverse, so, too, are the people. Enrolled are 4,842 full-time undergraduates, 853 part-time undergraduates, and 1,671 graduate students, representing 45 states and 49 countries. The full-time student-to-faculty ratio is 14:1.

Tradition The University of Hartford dates back to 1877, when the first of its original three schools was founded. The Hartford Art School (1877), Hillyer College (1879), and The Hartt School (1920) joined in 1957 to form the University of Hartford. The origins of the University can be traced back to the wife of Mark Twain. Mrs. Samuel Clemens, along with Harriett Beecher Stowe of Uncle Tom’s Cabin fame, formed an art society that later became the Hartford Art School.

Expansion The University has undertaken several ambitious building projects over the past half decade. A $34-million Integrated Science, Engineering, and Technology complex, which included major renovations to the adjacent Dana Hall (one of the original buildings on campus), opened in 2005. On its heels, new turf athletics fields brought a much different look to the opposite end of campus, benefitting students, faculty, staff, alumni, and community residents.

University of Hartford

The new Renée Samuels Center opened in January 2007, providing the Hartford Art School with new space for its photography and media arts programs. In fall 2007, Hawk Hall, a five-story residential facility for first-year students and its adjacent Alumni Plaza, a new outdoor gathering place for students, greeted students returning to campus. Now open just a mile from the University’s main campus, the Mort and Irma Handel Performing Arts Center houses five dance studios, four theatre rehearsal studios and two black box theatres. It is a vibrant center for dance and theatre instruction and performances at one of the key gateways to the city of Hartford. The University of Hartford also houses two public magnet schools on its campus—an elementary school for students from Hartford and several neighboring towns and University High School of Science and Engineering, which saw its legacy class graduate this past June.

Quality The University prides itself on its growing academic reputation, best illustrated by a consistent year-to-year increase in applications (more than 12,000 received annually) and selectivity (the University’s acceptance rate is lower than at any time in its history). The educational experience takes place in small, supportive classroom environments.

Location The charm of the suburbs and the opportunities of the city all come alive at the University of Hartford. Situated on a 340-acre, wooded, suburban campus, the University borders Hartford, West Hartford, and Bloomfield. Midway between Boston and New York City, downtown Hartford, only five miles away, is gaining a name for itself.

Campus Activities Numerous social, recreational, and entertainment alternatives exist for students on campus. More than 100 groups, clubs, and organizations, including campus media, student government, fraternities and sororities add to student life. The Campus Activities Team (CAT) is a student-run organization whose sole purpose is to schedule events for student enjoyment. The University of Hartford has gained a national reputation for the quality of cultural activities and fine-arts exhibits on its campus. The Hartt School and the Joseloff Gallery of the Hartford Art School are highly respected. Lincoln Theater, the Sports Center, and three auditoriums host numerous special events throughout the year.

University President Walter Harrison

Growth, 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 fundraising. More than 7,300 students (5,600 undergraduates and 1,700 graduate students) study at the seven schools and colleges of the University of Hartford, which is classified as a doctoral niversity research–intensive university by resident the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching. The institution has seen a 15 percent increase in undergraduate enrollment, and a 23-percent increase in degrees awarded, over the past decade. A highly visible figure on campus, President Harrison is known for his enthusiasm for student life and University activities, and is fondly referred to as Walt by many students. 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 oval-shaped 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. The Handel Center, located in the Upper Albany and Blue Hills neighborhoods of Hartford, one mile east of the University’s campus, also contains space for community activities. Two buildings have been renovated to house two of the University’s leading liberal arts programs: Psychology (East Hall) and Communications and Cinema Studies (Abrahms Hall). In 2006, the University opened new state-of-the-art athletic fields for soccer, lacrosse, softball, and baseball. The University’s vibrant relationship with the Greater Hartford community is a hallmark of President Harrison’s tenure. The University has become a recognized leader in helping to improve 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 Educa-

Walter Harrison U P

tion. 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.

Pat Meiser, in her 17th year at the University of Hartford, serves as the director of athletics and special assistant to the president. One of only 22 women director of athletics among the 329 institutions competing at the Division I level, Meiser has 38 years of experience in coaching and athletics administration. In June of 2009 she was named the Northeast Region I-AAA Under Armour Athletics Director of the Year award for the second time (2006), and in May of 1999, she was named one of the nation’s top 50 women’s sports expecial ssistant to ecutives by Street & Smith’s Sports Business Journal. the resident At Hartford, Meiser heads a team that is reirector of thletics sponsible for growing the athletics and academic quality of the program, enhancing revenue and extending the program into the community. In Meiser’s tenure, seven sports (women’s basketball, men’s soccer, women’s soccer, men’s golf, women’s golf, men’s tennis and women’s 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 and Dan Leibovitz. The women’s basketball team has been crowned America East Conference champion and reached the NCAA Tournament in 2002, 2005, 2006 and 2008. 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. This has taken place through an expanded fund raising and alumni relations effort, development of a corporate sponsorship program, implementation of a licensing program and successful grant submissions. Most significantly, Hartford athletics embarked on a $10 million athletics capital campaign in April of 2003. The campaign, called Home Field Advantage, funded the renovation of the existing soccer and lacrosse field, the relocation and construction of a softball field, the construction of a baseball field and will include construction of a track surrounding an allpurpose field. The ground breaking for Home Field Advantage took place in April of 2005, and Phase I of the project was completed in 2007. Phase II is presently under way. Meiser’s commitment to academics is well documented and demonstrated through the success of her student-athletes. Hartford has been among the leaders in The America’s East’s Academic Cup standings each of the past 10 years. The Hawks won the Cup in 199697. This past academic year, the average student-athlete GPA was 2.98. Reaching out in the community is important for Meiser. She is past chair of the Greater Hartford Convention and Visitors Bureau and her appointment came at a critical time as the city opened a $350

The University of Hartford celebrates its 26th year competing at the Division I level in 2008-09. Division I competition in all sports began in 1984-85, and the ensuing 25 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), 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). The Hawks have also received ECAC postseason bids in baseball (1988, 1992) and volleyball (1991). The Hawks sport conference champions in seven sports: women’s basketball (2002, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008), men’s soccer (1991, 1992, 1996, 1999), women’s soccer (1991, 1992, 1993, 1994, 1995, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2002, 2006), men’s golf (1988-95, 2001-02, 2004, 2006-07), men’s tennis (1990, 1991, 1995, 2002), women’s golf (2005) and women’s volleyball (1993). In addition to team success, Hartford players and coaches have received a multitude of individual honors. The awards have ranged from All-American distinction and national Coach of the Year honors to conference Player of the Year, All-Conference, individual tournament championships and others. All-Americans have been crowned in the following sports: baseball (2), men’s basketball (1), men’s golf (6), men’s lacrosse (3), men’s soccer (2) and women’s soccer (11). 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.

Strength & Conditioning The Hartford Hawks strength and conditioning program is designed to develop the best gains, in the least amount of time, in the safest way possible. It is the goal of the staff to develop both the muscular and cardiovascular systems in a manner that is compatible with the demands of competing as a Division I student-athlete. The hands-on approach not only increases safety in the weight room, but augments results of each athlete. The commitment from the coaching staff is the single most determining factor which maximizes results both in- and off-season. The methods endorsed at Hartford are based on research, physiological fact and years of experience. The college experience is a learning environment and the weight room is no different. The lessons that are learned in the weight room will be applicable to life once your playing days are over at Hartford. The purpose of the Hartford Hawks strength and conditioning program is to create a bigger, stronger, betterconditioned student-athlete that is less susceptible to injury.

Dave Houser Strength & Conditioning Coach First Season

Three full-time sports medicine professionals provide a comprehensive list of services, including injury care and rehabilitation, strength and conditioning, drug and alcohol education, and general personal health advisement. The sports medicine staff is aided by a wide range of equipment for the prevention of injuries and the rehabilitation and conditioning of studentathletes. A weight room, used solely by student-athletes and supervised by the training staff and a strength and conditioning professional, is housed in the sports medicine wing of the Sports Center. The sports medicine staff is supported by a network of highly qualified medical and counseling professionals practicing in the Greater Hartford area. Student Health Services staff, also located in the Sports Center, work in concert with the sports medicine staff in providing student-athletes with a full complement of coverage.
