BARNHILL ARENA

Is it the fans? Is it the facility? Is it the band and cheerleaders? It’s all of those elements that make Barnhill Arena, the home of the Razorbacks, one of the toughest volleyball venues in the country. Renovated several times, Barnhill Arena officially closed its doors as one of the most feared basketball facilities in the country March 3, 1993. It was re-configured into the largest volleyballonly arena in time for the inaugural season in 1994. The Barn underwent a second significant face lift prior to the 2002 season to also become the home of University of Arkansas gymnastics. Barnhill Arena was authorized in 1953 as the University’s new multipurpose arena. Named for athletic director John Barnhill, the Fieldhouse, as it was originally known, underwent a drastic renovation in 1976-78. The renovation created the seating arrangement that turned the facility into a basketball-only configuration. The date of March 3, 1993,

6

closed Barnhill’s career as a basketball facility with a gala party, complete with a coast-to-coast broadcast of the Arkansas-LSU men’s game on ESPN and closing ceremonies carried live statewide. As the home of Razorback volleyball, Barnhill underwent renovation of its playing surface to convert the then 19-year-old hardwood floor to a volleyball configuration. It was unveiled to the public during Arkansas’ summer camps, including the first-ever volleyball camp at the Fayetteville campus in 1994. In addition to the on-the-court renovation, the Razorback volleyball program was provided with a state-of-theart locker room. The locker room features a lounge area, team room with a large-screen television and VCR for viewing film and a changing room with lockers and showers. Barnhill again underwent face-lift to remain one of the best in the country in 2002. Changes included new paint on the court, expanding the borders to 10 feet, and refinishing and lightening

the surrounding wood surfaces. New lights, including specialized “show lights” with shutters that allow for instant “on-off” capabilities, and new seating were other changes. The Pulliza era began in 2008 with Arkansas competing under the second head coach in program history. Pulliza and his staff instituted some changes of their own updating the volleyball locker room and adorning the facility with new graphics. The southwest hallway leading to the court now features a game day mural and images of Arkansas’ six All-Americans. During the offseason prior to the 2011 campaign, the Razorback volleyball staff updated the media room where the team meets to watch film and weekly press conferences are held. In addition to its competition duties, Barnhill Arena serves as office space for the Razorback volleyball staff. Several staff offices, team locker rooms and the training and equipment rooms are located inside.

WHY ARKANSAS? HOME AWAY FROM HOME It’s never easy to move away from home, but the University of Arkansas and University Housing make sure our students have the comforts they need. There are 12 residence halls to choosea from at Arkansas. They include Futrall, Gibson, Gregson, Holcombe, Humphreys, Maple Hill East, Maple Hill South, Maple Hill West, Northwest Quad, Pomfret Honors Quarters, Reid and Yocum. As has become the trend, the Razorback volleyball players are living in the Northwest Quad, or “The Quad” for short. The players reported to campus Aug. 8 for their first official day of the 2011 preseason. Day one featured meetings with the academics, compliance and Student Life staffs. The Razorbacks also took team pictures.

Approximately 600 students live in The Quad with backgrounds ranging from scholarship athletes, honors students, 15 resident assistants, one faculty in residence and one coordinator for residence eduction. The Quad rooms are “suite-style” with each resident having her own room. Residence share a bathroom with one other resident and four students share a living room space. High-speed internet access, a computer lab and free laundry facilities are just a few of the many amenities students enjoy. The Quad is located within walking distance from Barnhill Arena making them convenient for student-athletes. In addition, The Quad are easily accessible to classrooms, dining and the center of campus.

From the initial move-in to your final Senior Walk, the University of Arkansas is a special place to call home.

SEC WESTERN DIVISION SUCCESS

The Southeastern Conference welcomed the arrival of two new teams, Arkansas and South Carolina in 1992 with the Razorbacks adding volleyball for the 1994 season. The addition of Arkansas brought the SEC to 11 teams (Vanderbilt does not sponsor volleyball) and prompted the league to recognize an Eastern and Western Division. No one could have imagined the early success the Razorbacks would have as they surged to the top of the divisional standings in the program’s first year of existence. Since Arkansas’ addition, the Razorbacks have won a share of 11 SEC Western Division titles in 17 seasons. They have one SEC Tournament title in 1997 and have won numerous individual awards, including SEC Freshman of the Year accolades for Jasmine Norton in 2009. Arkansas reached the SEC Tournament finals in just the second year of the program in 1995. The Razorbacks reached eight SEC Tournament finals before the league dropped the tournament prior to the 2006 season. The Razorbacks won the 1997 SEC Tournament title in Athens, Ga., defeating fourth-ranked Florida in three sets, 15-7, 15-7, 17-15, avenging losses to the Gators in the previous two finals. Krystal Osborne earned tournament MVP honors. The Razorbacks swept through three matches without dropping a set in the tournament, defeating Tennessee in the opener and downing South Carolina in the semifinals. Arkansas hosted the SEC Tournament in 1998 and 2002 at Barnhill Arena, advancing to the championship match on both occasions. Arkansas has an impressive 134-42 record, good for a .761 winning percentage, against the five other members of the SEC West - Alabama, Auburn, LSU, Ole Miss and Mississippi State. The Razorbacks own a winning record against each of their division mates.

RAZORBACKS ON THE BEACH

RAZORBACKS ENJOY SAND EXPerIence In the spring of 2009, the University of Arkansas volleyball program took part in the Second Annual SEC Coaches Beach Volleyball in Siesta Key, Fla. Kelli Stipanovich, now entering her senior season in Fayetteville, teamed with former Razorback setter Caira Dortch (2005-08) in five matches as part of the event. “It was an awesome day,” said Arkansas assistant coach Kris Grunwald who accompanied the team. “Our progress was excellent. We learned so much and got better from start to finish.” The Razorbacks suffered losses to Kentucky and LSU but picked up splits with Ole Miss and Florida in the early rounds. Arkansas then fell 21-19 to Tennessee in the first round of bracket play. “This event is great exposure for the emerging sport of beach volleyball,” said Grunwald. “There were thousands of spectators and we played on the center court most of the day. This event does a great job of showcasing the sport and I think we represented Arkansas and the SEC well.” The event was the Razorbacks second sand appearance. The inaugural SEC Coaches Beach Volleyball Championship took place in Gainesville, Fla., with Kelli Cole and Jessica Dorrell representing Arkansas at the event. The 2009 event was combined with the Collegiate Beach Volleyball Challenge with schools outside the SEC competing in what is believed to be the large collegiate beach volleyball tournament. Beach volleyball was introduced to the collegiate scene by CBS College Sports Network with the Collegiate Nationals, an original event founded by the Network in the spring of 2006. That event is now in its fourth season. The coaches of the Southeastern and Sunshine State Conferences followed with their beach tournaments in the spring of 2008. The popularity of those events along with others that sprang up spontaneously around the country helped lead to the NCAA’s Committee on Women’s Athletics to recommend in the summer of 2008 that sand volleyball be added to the emerging sports list for women. In April 2010, representatives from Division I and II voted to add sand volleyball to the NCAA list of emerging sports. Division II sand volleyball begins in 2010-11 with Division I starting in 2011-12. Sports once placed on the emerging list that have since been made part of the NCAA Championships include women’s rowing, women’s water polo, women’s ice hockey and women’s bowling.

YARLEEN SANTIAGO ON THE BEACH Players leave college and go on to all kinds of exciting and challenging careers but very few have the chance to continue in their sport at a professional or international level. Former Razorback Yarleen Santiago has done just that. Santiago played for Arkansas from 1997-99 and went on to continue with the sport she loves in her native Puerto Rico. A member of the Puerto Rican Junior National and National teams, Santiago is now a professional sand volleyball player. She and partner Dariam Acevedo have reached the pinnacle of the sport and reached the No. 1 ranking in their home country of Puerto Rico. The Puerto Rican duo captured five titles during the 2010 NORCECA sand season. During the year, Santiago and Acevedo won their first title of the season in November at the Nicaragua event. Santiago also played for the Puerto Rican National Teams. Some of her career highlights include a 12th place finish at the 2002 World Championship, a sixth-place finish at the 2004 Olympic Qualifier, a fifth-place showing at the 2006 Pan-American Cup and a bronze medal at the 2006 Central America and Caribbean Games. While at Arkansas, Santiago was one of the most recognizable players for her athleticism and skill. She finished her career with 1,342 kills ranking sixth alltime. Santiago averaged 3.64 kills per game, hit .270, had 105 service aces, 1,277 digs, 393 total blocks and scored 1,673.5 career points for the Razorbacks. Santiago was a three-time All-Southeastern Conference selection, twice being named to the league’s first team. During her collegiate career, the Razorbacks tallied an 89-19 record with a 41-4 mark in conference play, and in 1997, Arkansas captured the SEC Tournament title. Santiago also helped the Razorbacks to three NCAA Tournament appearances.

NATIONAL TEAM EXPERIENCE The University of Arkansas volleyball team is reinventing itself under the direction of current head coach Robert Pulliza. One of the elements that is important to Pulliza and his staff is how players represent themselves as Razorbacks, as student-athletes and in the community. There is no greater honor or more significant way to represent a player’s talent than to be selected for her national team program. The Razorbacks now have eight such players in the program’s history and fans can look for many more in Arkansas’ future. From that group, five are on the 2011 roster by way of Roslandy Acosta (Venezuela), Brooke Fournier (USA), Raymariely Santos (Puerto Rico), Kelli Stipanovich (USA) and Janeliss Torres-Lopez (Puerto Rico). The first Razorback to earn USA recognition was Krystal Osborne (1994-07). The Las Vegas, Nev., native was selected to the 1995 U.S. Olympic Festival Team. Jessica Field (1995-98) followed with her selection to the U.S. National Team in 1998. Field was joined by Razorback teammate Yarleen Santiago (1997-99) who earned selection to the Puerto Rico National Team in 1998, too. (Both pictured right.) Stipanovich joined the list in 2009 when she was selected to participate with the Women’s Junior A2 Team during its summer tour of Europe. The U.S. Women’s Junior A2-Europe program left the United States July 14, traveling to Zurich, Switzerland, July 15. The team took part in a training camp with the Swiss senior National Team and a team from the European Federation as well as the USA/BIP team from July 1519, before heading to Pula, Croatia, July 19. Stipanovich and the team then participated in the European Global Challenge in Croatia, July 20-24 and had a day of sightseeing in Venice, Italy, July 24, prior to their return home July 25. “At the University of Arkansas, we take great pride in training and it’s exciting to see that when an athlete

Kelli Stipanovich (#14 above) spent the summer of 2009 with the USA Junior National A2 Team on a European tour of Switzerland, Croatia and Italy.

commits herself to work hard day in and day out good things happen,” said Pulliza. “Kelli is deserving of this opportunity and I was proud of her wearing that USA jersey!” Torres-Lopez checks in for her third year of collegiate volleyball after being a member of the Puerto Rico Junior National Team. Torres-Lopez has high-level international experience that should help her step into a leadership role with the Razorbacks during the final two seasons of her collegiate career. Santos continues the Puerto Rican pipeline. Prior to joining the Razorbacks, Santos was a member of the Puerto Rico National and Junior National teams. She served as a team captain at the 2010 NORCECA Junior Continental Championship in which Puerto Rico finished fifth. Santos also has experience in the Grand Prix tournaments played in Brazil, Japan and Thailand. Arkansas picked up its second Junior A2 Team member when Fournier was selected prior to the team’s summer trip to Europe in 2011. She was part of the squad that won gold at the European Global Challenge in Croatia. In addition to the tournament, the junior team took part in training sessions with the Great Britain senior National Team.

Acosta, a 2011 junior transfer to Arkansas, represented her native country of Venezuela in the 2008 Summer Olympic Games in Beijing, China. Then, at the age of 16, she was the youngest player in the volleyball competition. At the head of the program, Pulliza brings a host of varied experiences to the Razorbacks. Those experiences and his enthusiasm for the game continue to grow and expand with each passing day. Pulliza came to the Razorbacks having served three stints with the US National programs. He was an assistant coach for the US Girls Youth National Team in 2000 and 2001 (see photos below). Pulliza’s 2000 team won the silver medal at the NORCECA Zonal Championship in the Dominican Republic. Pulliza’s international experience continued with the US National A2 Team in 2003. With two year of head coaching experience under his belt at Arkansas, Pulliza remains active in the interna-

NATIONAL TEAM EXPERIENCE tional coaching community. He now serves as a consultant to the Puerto Rican Junior National program. In February 2010, Pulliza served as an assitant coach for the Puerto Rico Junior National Team at the Summer Cup in Lima, Peru. He followed that experience with a trip to the NORCECA Girls’ Youth Continental Championship where Puerto Rico earned a bronze medal (left) and secured a spot in the 2011 FIVB Youth World Championship tournament.

RAZORBACKS IN THE COMMUNITY Being a part of the Northwest Arkansas community is an important part of being a Razorback. This ranges from softball team visits to area nursing homes to track and field volunteer work with Race for the Cure and Special Olympics. But that’s just a small part of the Razorbacks community service. Players visit area schools to read to youngsters in the school library. Arkansas is a charter member of the “Bring a Girl to the Game” promotion for National Women’s and Girls in Sport Day. The regional Girl Scout troops are involved in several projects, including Girl Scout Day, for many team sports like basketball, volleyball, men’s and women’s golf, men’s and women’s tennis and softball. In conjunction with their 2011 spring workouts, the Razorbacks hosted a clinic at Barnhill Arena with Special Olympics Arkansas (pictured below). More than 130 youth and

16

adult players along with the Arkansas coaching staff and student-athletes were in attendance at the March 12 event. “We were extremely lucky to have the opportunity to host the Special Olympics event,” head coach Robert Pulliza said. “Since we have been at Arkansas, we’ve been trying to figure out a way to be involved with the organization and we are very thankful to Tonja McCone for helping make that possible.” During the 2008-09 academic year, the Arkansas Athletic Department spearheaded the creation of Razorbacks Character Counts, a speaker’s bureau for coaches and athletes to reach out to local schools at every level. The goal is to bring positive examples of the benefit of hard work, teamwork and leadership that participation in athletics can provide. Including Arkansas’ involvement

in Book Hogs, Lift Up America, Sweat Hawgs and Together We CAN, the Razorbacks teamed with the Northwest Arkansas community in June 2010 to pack more than 1.4 million meals for Razorback Relief: Operation Haiti. More than 2,000 canned goods were also donated and distributed in the area by the Northwest Arkansas Food Bank. Each team has its own special way of involving itself with local youth. ••••••• ARKANSAS MEMBERS OF SEC COMMUNITY SERVICE TEAM 2002__________________ Libby Windell 2003_________________ Jennifer Haaser 2004_________________ Jennifer Haaser 2005____________________Amy Allison 2006____________________Amy Allison 2007___________________ Ashley Miller 2008________________ Kelli Stipanovich 2009_________________Lindsay Scanlan 2010________________ Kelli Stipanovich

The University of Arkansas added one of the nation’s top recruiters to its athletic staff when Robert Pulliza was introduced as the head coach of the Razorback volleyball team on July 11, 2008. Pulliza took over as the second head coach at Arkansas to lead the Hogs into the program’s next era. Pulliza is one of just a handful of coaches in the country to play and coach in the Final Four. As a player, Pulliza was a two-year captain for the Ball State men’s volleyball team and helped lead the Cardinals to the NCAA Final Four in 1994 and 1995. Then as an assistant coach at Wisconsin, Pulliza helped guide the Badgers to the Final Four during the 2000 season. In his third season at the helm of the Arkansas volleyball program, Pulliza guided the Razorbacks to their highest win total since 2006 and saw his team finish just one victory off the program’s best conference record since the Southeastern Conference moved to its current double round-robin format. Arkansas finished the 2010 season as the fourth-place team in the Western Division and seventh in the conference overall; all six teams ahead of the Razorbacks advanced to the NCAA Tournament. With a roster that featured no seniors, Pulliza saw two of his underclassmen standouts recognized by the SEC coaches at the end of the sea-

son. Jasmine Norton earned a spot on the All-SEC Second Team, the second such honor of her career, and Raymariely Santos became the ninth player in Razorback history to earn SEC All-Freshman honors. She joins Norton and Amanda Anderson as the three all-freshman selections for Pulliza. During the season, Norton led the SEC offensively with 3.83 kills per set. With the accomplishment, she became the first player in Arkansas volleyball history to lead the conference in kills per set over the course of an entire season. At her setter position, Santos earned two Freshman of the Week and one Defensive Player of the Week awards. Arkansas’ 6-1 start to the season matched the starts of the 1996, 1999, 2006 and 2007 teams; only the 2002 team had a better start. The Razorbacks also posted a pair of all-time offensive performances during the season. In a sweep of Grambling State, the team had a .429 hitting percentage, the sixth-best figure in program history. A week later, Razorbacks hit .419 against Akron for the eighth-best effort for any Arkansas team. Using a fast-paced offense and playing a schedule that featured nine teams to play in the 2010 NCAA Tournament, Pulliza built a fan-friendly brand of volleyball that brought in the fans. The Razorbacks’ 2010 home attendance was the highest in program history. A season-high 1,272 fans watched Arkansas’ match against regional rival

Robert Pulliza is just the second head coach in the program history of Arkansas volleyball.

Oklahoma. Three crowds from the year rank among the program’s top six all-time attendance figures. In 2009, on the talents of the youngest roster since the program’s inaugural season, the Razorback volleyball team took tremendous strides during Pulliza’s second year as head coach. Picked to finish 10th in the Southeastern Conference in the preseason coaches’ poll, the Razorbacks exceeded all expectations to post the sixth-best record in the league. As impressive as the team’s development, the emergence of Norton as Arkansas’ go-to player on the outside was instrumental to the team’s success. Norton was a member of Pulliza’s first recruiting class at Arkansas, which was ranked in the nation’s top 45 by PrepVolleyball.com.

During her first season in Cardinal and White, Norton became the sixth All-American in Razorback program history when she was selected as an Honorable Mention performer by the AVCA. In addition to her national recognition, Norton was named the SEC and South Region Freshman of the Year, earned a spot on the All-SEC Second Team and garnered All-South Region Honorable Mention accolades. During the season, the Rowlett, Texas, native set an SEC record by earning six league Freshman of the Week awards, all of which came during conference play. That initial group of recruits also included Anderson, the very first commitment for Pulliza as Arkansas’ head coach. Anderson and Norton were both named to the SEC All-Freshman Team, the seventh and eighth All-Freshman selections in program history. During the season, Anderson earned all-tournament honors at the TCU Invitational and Arkansas Invitational, the latter resulting in the 6-2 middle blocker being named the SEC Freshman of the Week. Pulliza’s first season with the Razorback Nation included a pair of SEC sweeps and his first foray into the SEC Coaches’ Beach Volleyball Championship. He also helped then-freshman Kelli Stipanovich earn a spot on the USA Junior National A2 Team that traveled to Europe during the summer of 2009. Pulliza came to Fayetteville after stops in some of the nation’s best programs, including, most recently, the University of Kentucky where he served as the associate head coach. He was instrumental in re-energizing the Kentucky program upon his arrival in 2004. His recruiting prowess with the Wildcats was evident as his 2007 class was ranked No. 8 in the country. He followed with the 17th-ranked recruiting class in 2008. Pulliza’s class in 2006 was ranked 26th by PrepVolleyball.com.

One of the standouts from Pulliza’s initial recruiting class at Kentucky, setter Sarah Rumely, went on to be voted the 2008 SEC Player of the Year and two-time All-American. During her first season, Rumely was a twice named the SEC Freshman of the Week en route to being named the SEC Freshman of the Year. One member of the 2007 Kentucky team, Queen Nzenwa, became the program’s first AllAmerica selection since 1993 after finishing the year ranked eighth in the nation in blocks per game. Pulliza’s 2007 freshman class again led the SEC in first-year player success as the Wildcats brought home four SEC Freshman of the Week honors and a league-leading seven honors. Kentucky made three NCAA tournament appearances in Pulliza’s three seasons for the first time in school history. In addition, Pulliza helped guide the Wildcats to a 20-win season for the first time since 1993. Kentucky had three consecutive 17-plus win seasons including back-to-back 19-win years and Pulliza coached nine All-SEC members and 10 All-SEC Academic honorees.

2011 PREVIEW

Under fourth-year head coach Robert Pulliza, the University of Arkansas volleyball team will take the floor Aug. 26 to begin its 2011 campaign. Relying on youth to carry the program through the first three years of his tenure, Pulliza has built a roster that can lean the experience of its upperclassmen group of two seniors and six juniors. “I think we’re finally at a place where we have some depth, which is needed to play volleyball at the highest level,” Pulliza said. “We also have the athletes that we need to play at the next level. That combination is very important. I think we do have that understanding of the preparation that it takes day in and day out. We have only two seniors, but all of those juniors have played pretty much every match for two years. We have some very crucial pieces in place that can really help us take the next step. “The growth we’ve had, especially with the first freshman class we brought in (in 2009), will really start to show up as that group goes into their junior year as upperclassmen after two years of being in the program.” Along with its depth, Arkansas stands to benefit from the experience of its 10 returning letterwinners, including five starters and its starting libero from last season. The Razorbacks bring back nearly 85 percent of its offense—five of Arkansas’ top six attackers from last year are back

50

in 2011—and more than three-quarters of their defense, in terms of total blocks and digs. Last season, the Razorbacks’ roster featured no seniors for the first time since 1995, the program’s second year of existence. That phase comes to an end this season with 2011 seniors Kelli Stipanovich and Adriana Vazquez. “We have two very good seniors this year with Kelli Stipanovich and Adriana Vazquez,” Pulliza said. “They have worked very hard this summer and are hungry to go out with a bang to end up their careers with a great experience. “Kelli has been here since the beginning of our time here. She’s putting up impressive numbers and doing some special things in practice. It has been fun watching her progress over the four years. She invests everything she has into the team every day and has done that for four years. We’re looking forward to her leadership and play

as we go through this senior season for her. Adriana has only been here two years now but the energy and commitment she brings to the team environment has helped us change the culture and bring our program to where it is now.” The group upperclassmen for Arkansas will also include juniors

2011 PREVIEW Roslandy Acosta, Amanda Anderson, Kasey Heckelman, Marci King, Jasmine Norton and Janeliss TorresLopez; Anderson, Norton and Torres-Lopez were part of Pulliza’s first recruiting class at Arkansas while Acosta, Heckelman and King join the Razorbacks as transfers. The team’s experience will be balanced with the youth of sophomores Brooke Fournier, Hayley Koop, Clarissa Pavey, Raymariely Santos and Charmaine Whitmore and freshmen Christa Alvarez and KC Dobbins. Each of this year’s sophomores played in at least 16 matches last season. Alvarez joins the team as a defensive specialist while Dobbins is a setter. “(Our recruiting class) is certainly going to help us,” Pulliza said. “We have a freshman in Christa Alvarez that has shown some great play through the early part of the preseason. She should definitely find some time on the court to help us out. We also have some transfers that are new faces and bring new excitement but they also bring experience which is a spot we wanted to keep growing. “Roslandy Acosta, a junior out of Venezuela, played for the Venezuelan National Team and was part of the Olympic team in Beijing. She was the youngest player in the volleyball competition at the age of 16. She will bring special things to our program. Kasey Heckelman, a junior transfer from the University of Louisville, was an AAU All-American and will be a big part of what we do this year. Marci King was a junior college AllAmerican last year so she adds more to that class. All of them bring something to the table for us.” Arkansas’ offense will be fueled by its outside hitters, a group led by Norton and Stipanovich. Last season, Norton led the SEC in kills per set with 3.83 k/s, becoming the first player in program history to lead the conference in that category. Stipanovich was second on the team with 2.40 k/s. The 2010 season was career-best campaign for Stipanovich who established highs in kills per set, points, digs and total blocks. The Razorback duo is also on

track to eclipse a career milestone with each within reach of joining the program’s 1,000-kill club. Norton, a 2010 All-SEC performer, enters her junior season with 947 career kills, while Stipanovich has 891 career kills to her credit. Should both get to the figure in 2011, it would mark the fourth time Arkansas teammates have reached 1,000 kills in the same season. The attack from the pins will also feature Acosta, Heckelman and Koop. Acosta, a member of the 2008 Venezuelan Olympic team, was the AVCA Two-Year College Player of the Year in 2010 at Cowley College. With Acosta, Heckelman, Koop and Stipanovich, the Razorbacks have four outside hitters at 6-1 or taller, which will also aid in the team’s blocking efforts. “We have reached a maturity level that we’ve been missing the last few seasons,” Pulliza said. “That maturity and our physicality can certainly take us places. We’re going to be deeper. With our third recruiting class under our belt here, it definitely gives us some depth that we haven’t had in the past. That’s going to help us in terms of competition in the

gym and being able to rest people at certain points in the season.” In the middle, the returning group of Anderson, Torres-Lopez and Whitmore will be joined by King, a 2010 NJCAA First-Team All-American at Eastern Arizona. For the second time in her career, Anderson led the team in hitting percentage last season. Torres-Lopez and Whitmore, the team’s top two blockers last season, will lead Arkansas’ blocking at the net. The two had season bests last year of 11 and nine total blocks, respectively. The offense will be run by Santos, a 2010 SEC All-Freshman selection. She made a late surge last season, earning three SEC weekly honors—twice named SEC Freshman of the Week and garnering Defensive Player of the Week accolades—in the final month of the regular season. Santos will be tasked with managing the Razorbacks’ offensive weapons. She started the final 12 SEC matches of the year as a freshman. The setter position adds Dobbins for 2011. Arkansas’ defense behind the block will be handled by Alvarez, Fouriner, Pavey and Vazquez. Fournier donned the libero jersey in 2010

and responded with 3.06 digs per set. She gained more experience during the summer with the U.S. Junior A2 Team that won gold at the European Global Challenge in Croatia. “It’s certainly been exciting to see the growth of our youth throughout the last two years,” Pulliza said. “To see where they are right now, you can totally see the difference in terms of the way they approach practice, how much more physical and strong they are and how much better there are just in terms of playing the game together. As you go through the early growing pains and stick through some difficult times, this is when you get to enjoy the outcome and see the rewards.” Prior to the start of the season, Arkansas was picked to finish third in the SEC Western Division by the 2011 Preseason Coaches’ Poll, the same position it was slotted last season. Norton added to her collection of honors when she was named one of 10 players on the Preseason AllSEC Team for the second time in her career. “Preseason polls are always what people think about you and your team,” Pulliza said. “It’s a good thing to know because you need to know how others perceive you so you can find out where you need to grow. It’s a starting point but we hope to prove

people wrong because we certainly don’t want to finish third (in the SEC Western Division). Obviously, we want to be first. It’s a good starting point but we look to go up from there.” “Jasmine has made some good impressions in her first two seasons. Physically, she’s done some exception things on the court and the awards speak for themselves. Her next step is to become an example for the rest of the team as she grows into a leadership role as an upperclassman.” During the upcoming season, the Razorbacks are set to host 14 home matches and play nine teams that advanced to last year’s NCAA Tournament. The team begins its season with its annual Arkansas Invitational. The challenges begin right away as the tournament field is scheduled to include Colorado State, McNeese State and Middle Tennessee. Both Colorado State and Middle Tennessee advanced to the postseason in 2010. “Preseason is an exciting time but probably more so for the players than the coaches because we still feel like we need time for practice. We’ll need a very good preseason in preparation of taking on a great Colorado State team to open the season.” The rest of Arkansas’ non-conference season is highlighted by a trip to Norman, Okla., to take on the

Sooners, another 2010 NCAA Tournament team, and weekend trips to Wake Forest for the Deacon Invitational and Army for the West Point Challenge. The Razorbacks’ SEC schedule begins Sept. 16 with a road match at Alabama. The team plays its conference home opener the following week against Mississippi State. The regular season comes to a close Nov. 26 at defending Western Division champion LSU. Postseason play begins the first weekend of December with the first and second rounds of the 2011 NCAA Division I Women’s Volleyball Championship. Arkansas will have added exposure with three television matches on its schedule. All three matches will originate from the Razorbacks’ home facility at Barnhill Arena. In the three televised matches, Arkansas will host Tennessee on SportSouth (Oct. 2), LSU on ESPNU (Oct. 26) and Florida on Charter/Cox Sports (Nov. 13). “We expect to be very good this year. We have a veteran group, a very physical group and a good volleyball group. We’re always working on setting goals, individually and as a team, for where we want to go. I fully expect us to be an NCAA Tournament team in 2011.”

2010 SEASON REVIEW

With its overall goal of joining the list of the nation’s elite, the University of Arkansas continued to make strides during the 2010 season. Under third-year head coach Robert Pulliza, the Razorbacks posted their highest win total since 2006 and finished just one win off the program’s best conference record since the SEC moved to double round-robin play. “It was definitely a season of growth, especially when four of your starters are freshman,” Pulliza said. “The most important thing was we saw growth as the season went on. We were certainly playing our best volleyball during the second half of the SEC schedule. I’m excited about that growth and the way we finished the year. We still have a ways to go but with such a young group, it’s exciting that we’ll have that time together to take that next step.” On the heels of an outstanding first season in Cardinal and White, Jasmine Norton was the only sophomore named to the 2010 Preseason All-SEC Team. The sophomore attacker responded by leading the conference in kills per set (3.83). She is the first player in program history to lead the conference in that category over the course of an entire season. When the conference’s postseason honors were announced, Norton was selected to the All-SEC Second Team by the league’s coaches for the second time in her career. On a team with no seniors on the roster, junior Kelli Stipanovich used her experience and work ethic to help lead by example. The St. Louis, Mo., notched a career-best .260 hitting percentage, more than 50 points higher than her hitting percentage as a sophomore (.204). In addition, Stipanovich finished the year with career highs in blocks, digs and points. As the team’s two primary attackers, Norton and Stipanovich also put a dent in Arkansas’ all-time kills list. At season’s end, Norton stands at 14th with 947 career kills while Stipanovich is 16th with 891 career putaways, putting both in position to join the list of Moving Up the (Kills) Charts 13.

group of upperclassmen with a 2011 roster projected to feature two seniors and six juniors. Collectively, that group accounted for more than 1,200 kills and 83 percent of the team’s offense this season. “It’s exciting that next year we’re going to have a big class of upperclassmen with that group that did so much for us as freshmen and sophomores,” Pulliza said. “The good thing about being young early and having the right people is that on the tail end, it really helps you go to that next level.” The Razorbacks will also lean on its exciting group of underclassmen as the program makes progress. That group includes SEC All-Freshman performer Raymariely Santos, the team’s setter over the second half of the season. Santos became the ninth player in program history to earn league all-freshman honors, joining Norton and Amanda Anderson as the three all-freshman selections for Pulliza. Along the way, Santos earned two Freshman of the Week and one Defensive Player of the Week awards. With as many as four freshmen on the floor at once, the Razorbacks also caught a glimpse of the future with the play of Charmaine Whitmore and Brooke Fournier. Using her incredible athleticism, Whitmore’s presence was primarily felt defensively as the Fort Smith, Ark., native had eight matches with at least five blocks, including efforts of nine blocks against Georgia and eight against Tennessee. In Fournier, Arkansas had one of the two freshman libero starters in the SEC. She had four matches with at least 20 digs and finished the season with 3.06 digs per set. “We had a spring with pretty much our whole team here,” Pulliza said. “That is certainly significant because you can work within the system, try different lineups and grow as a group. That is something we need to keep addressing because we fell short in some crucial times and I think that had to do with our collective effort. “Now we get the chance to really build those relationships and understand each other better. I think our collective effort and group maturity will be better. That will help in closing out in spots that we didn’t this season.” The 2010 season also saw the emergence of sophomore Janeliss Torres-Lopez in the middle. When given the opportunity to start at the Middle Tennessee Invitational during the pre-conference schedule, Torres-Lopez responded with a career-

2010 SEASON REVIEW best 11 blocks in her first start of the season. Offensively, the Salinas, Puerto Rico, native tallied a career-high 22 kills against South Carolina with a .556 hitting percentage. As a team, the Razorbacks opened the season by sweeping their way to the tournament title at the Arkansas Invitational. Stipanovich was named the Most Valuable Player of the four-team event while Anderson and Cassie Clarke were also named to the tournament team. Clarke earned her second alltournament selection when she and Norton were recognized for their play at the Jayhawk Classic. Norton closed out the preconference season with all-tournament accolades at the MTSU Invitational. Arkansas’ 6-1 start to the season matched the starts of the 1996, 1999, 2006 and 2007 teams; only the 2002 team had a better start. The Razorbacks also posted a pair of all-time offensive performances during the season. In a sweep of Grambling State, the team had a .429 hitting percentage, the sixth-best figure in program history. A week later, the Razorbacks hit .419 against Akron for the eight-best hitting percentage. “We were very close this year,” Pulliza said. “Fourteen of our 17 losses came against teams that advanced to the NCAA Tournament, so we played the right schedule. Even within those losses, we had match points in three of them so you’re looking at reversing our record and being pretty close to making the tournament ourselves. We did not accomplish our main goal of making the NCAA Tournament and that was our measuring stick but we came close.”

The Razorbacks received an extra boost from their home fans at Barnhill Arena. During home matches, Arkansas averaged a program-best 847 fans per match, a figure inside the top 50 for national attendance for the 2010 season. It was the first time the season’s average eclipsed the 800 mark, topping the previous high of 737 fans per home match the previous year. “No doubt about it, Barnhill Arena is one of the best venues in the country for volleyball,” Pulliza said. “We’re proud to call it our home court. We’re thankful for the Razorback Nation that comes to support us. We had TOP 5 HOME CROWDS a great attendance year, the best in 1. 1,362 vs. Florida, 11-22-98 program history, and that’s a testa2. 1,272 vs. Oklahoma, 9-7-10 ment to our great fans.

Three of the top six home attendance figures came this season. In addition to the OU crowd, the Razorbacks also played in front of home crowds of 1,263 (Nov. 19 vs. No. 1 Florida) and 1,185 (season opener vs. UMKC). Arkansas played in three television matches this season, including a national appearance at then-No. 12 LSU on ESPNU as part of the networks’ Wednesday Night Women’s Volleyball package. Both of the team’s matches against nationally ranked Tennessee were also televised.

FAYETTEVILLE - In front of 1,185 fans, the University of Arkansas volleyball team downed UMKC in four sets (25-16, 23-25, 25-22, 25-17) Friday evening on day one of the Arkansas Invitational at Barnhill Arena. Sophomore Amanda Anderson totaled a match-high 14 kills on a .500 hitting percentage to pace the Razorback offense. Friday night’s crowd represents the fourth-largest volleyball attendance figure at Barnhill Arena and the largest non-conference total. Sophomore Cassie Clarke dished out 34 assists to go along with five kills and nine digs. Junior Kelli Stipanovich and freshman libero Brooke Fournier tallied 13 and 12 digs, respectively. Stipanovich also had nine kills with a .471 hitting percentage. In the opening set, Arkansas (1-0) went on a four-point run to pull ahead, 10-6, and force UMKC (0-1) to call its first timeout. Out of the break, Arkansas kept the momentum and with freshman Raymariely Santos at the service line, the Hogs built a 19-9 advantage. The Kangaroos pulled to within seven but got no closer as Arkansas closed out the set, 25-16, on back-to-back kills by Anderson and Kendall Cleveland. The Razorbacks’ offense dominated the opening set, tallying just three attack errors and a .433 hitting percentage. Having dropped set two, Arkansas came out of the locker room and took a 5-1 lead in the third set. Despite a surge by UMKC to tie the set on a few occasions, the Razorbacks never lost their advantage and went ahead for good, 16-15, on another kill by Anderson. Later in the set, sophomore Jasmine Norton smacked one of her 10 kills to extend the home team’s lead to six, 23-17. With two of the team’s four set points gone, Anderson capped the third with a kill to give the Hogs the set, 25-22. Dating back to last season, Norton now has a double-digit kill total in 17 consecutive matches and is three putaways from 500 career kills. She would become the 24th player in program history to eclipse the milestone; Stipanovich and 2009 senior Kristin Seaton joined the club last season. In the early stages of the fourth, and final, set, Arkansas and UMKC found themselves tied, 8-8. Neither team could find an offensive rhythm in the game, but the Razorbacks strung together big plays at key moments. Separated by just one point, Arkansas went on a 6-1 scoring push to grab a 17-11 advantage. A block by Anderson and freshman Hayley Koop gave the team its largest lead of the set, 20-12. The Kangaroos got no closer than five points the rest of the way and on their first match point, Arkansas watched as an errant UMKC attack went long to seal the season-opening victory.

FAYETTEVILLE - The University of Arkansas volleyball team posted an impressive .429 hitting percentage against Grambling State en route to a straight-sets victory (25-11, 25-15, 25-12) Saturday afternoon at Barnhill Arena. Jasmine Norton and Kelli Stipanovich led the team with 10 kills each. The Razorbacks’ hitting percentage is the sixth-best figure in program history. With her third putaway of the match, Norton notched her 500th career kill to become the 24th Razorback to eclipse the milestone. Arkansas (2-0) won the first four points of the match to take early control of the action. Backto-back kills by Amanda Anderson and Kendall Cleveland gave the Razorbacks a 10-3 lead and forced Grambling to take its first timeout. The home team, eventually, built a double-digit lead in the opener after a solo block by Cassie Clarke. Behind the serve of Stipanovich, Arkansas won the last nine points of the set to close it out, 25-11. Anderson, Cleveland and Norton paced with Razorback offense in the first set with three kills each. As a team, Arkansas blistered the ball in the opening game with a .667 hitting percentage and committed just one attack error. The strong offense translated to a stronger defense as the Razorbacks held Grambling to a -.190 hitting percentage in the first set. Stipanovich shouldered the offensive load with five kills in the second set. The Razorbacks jumped out to an early 8-1 lead with Norton at the service line. During the scoring run, Norton had three service aces; she finished with a match-high five aces. Grambling got as close as six points but Arkansas continued to push its lead until it reached double digits. A kill by freshman Charmaine Whitmore brought the Razorbacks to set point and on a GSU service error, the Hogs sealed the set, 25-15. The third set took a familiar path as the previous two. Arkansas led, 8-1, after an ace from Norton. Freshman Raymariely Santos played the entire third game as the team’s setter and tallied 11 assists. Norton posted five kills in the set. With 10 kills, the Razorback sophomore extended her streak of double-digit kill totals to 18 matches. On match point, Allison Johnson and Hayley Koop combined for a block to win the set, 25-12, and close out the match. Freshman libero Brooke Fournier finished the day with a match-high 13 digs. In her two sets of play, Clarke tallied 18 assists to go along with a pair of aces. The Razorbacks served 12 aces against Grambling State, the eighth highest total in program history. Five different players registered a service winner in the match.

Anderson hit .457 with 26 kills and Clarke averaged 10.56 assists per set during the weekend, handing out 43 assists in the finale. Arkansas took an early 8-3 lead in the opening set after a kill by Amanda Anderson which forced Samford (2-1) to call its first timeout. Out of the break, the visitors rallied and eventually took the lead, 15-14, on a service ace by Lyndsey Holt. The two teams traded points until Stipanovich put away a ball to put the Razorbacks up by two, 21-19. Consecutive kills by Anderson and a kill by Kendall Cleveland brought Arkansas to set point. Jasmine Norton sealed the opener for the Hogs with a crosscourt shot, one of her eight first-set kills. Both teams thrived offensively in game one as the Razorbacks posted a .500 hitting percentage while Samford hit .360 as a team. Anderson added four kills for the home team and Clarke handed out 18 assists in the set. Following the pattern of the first, Arkansas controlled the early stages of the second set and took a 9-6 lead on a kill by Stipanovich. A late lead change found the Razorbacks behind, 19-18, but the home team won the next two points, including a long rally extended by a pair of Arkansas hustle plays. After Samford saved one set point, Norton put another ball to the floor to send the Hogs into the locker room with a two-set advantage. In the final set, Arkansas survived an early surge by its opponent and, with a four-point run, took a 10-9 advantage. The Razorbacks applied pressure with a strong offense and led, 17-13, when Samford called a timeout. The Bulldogs got as close as two points, but Clarke and Alex Fitzmorris posted back-to-back kills to pad the lead. On match point, Cleveland closed out Samford and secured the tournament title with her seventh kill. Norton finished the match with a match-high 15 kills at a .400 hitting percentage. Anderson and Stipanovich each had nine kills against Samford. The Razorbacks tallied a .347 hitting percentage as a team. Samford’s Lauren Hutchinson and Alexis Bauer were also named to the all-tournament team.

Jasmine Norton led the way with 20 kills while Hayley Koop and Kelli Stipanovich added 12 and 11 kills, respectively. The Razorbacks lost the second and third sets before rallying to take games four and five for the win. Arkansas (4-0) won the first two points of the fifth set and took an 8-4 lead on a kill by Koop as the two teams switched sides of the court; ORU called its first timeout of the decisive set. Out of the timeout, the Golden Eagles made a big push and rallied back to even the score, 9-9, to force a timeout from the Arkansas bench. Stipanovich came out of the back row for a big kill and Norton posted a solo block to stop the home team’s run, and the Razorbacks led, 11-9. After another timeout by Oral Roberts, Norton took over with three consecutive kills to give the Razorbacks match point. The Golden Eagles saved the first point but Stipanovich hammered a shot down the line to seal the deal to keep Arkansas undefeated through its first four matches of the season. Behind the tough serving of Cassie Clarke and Norton, the Razorbacks jumped out to an early 9-2 advantage. A putaway by Kendall Cleveland gave Arkansas a 7-2 lead, forcing ORU to call its first timeout of the match. The Razorbacks maintained their lead throughout the first set and arrived at set point, 24-15, after a crosscourt thump by Norton. Oral Roberts rallied to win the next six points to close its deficit to three points, but Norton sealed the opener with a kill out of the middle. Despite losing the first set, the Golden Eagles carried over the momentum of their late charge in the opener. Arkansas won the first three points of the second, but ORU responded to take a 5-4 lead, its first lead of the night. With the home crowd urging them on, Oral Roberts took a 14-9 advantage and Pulliza called a timeout. In contrast to the first set when Arkansas held ORU to a .000 hitting percentage, the Golden Eagles terminated at a .345 clip in the second to take the second, 25-20. Arkansas’ offensive stumbled during the second and third games with hitting percentages of .030 and .028, respectively, while Oral Roberts turned up their attack. Tough serving by the Golden Eagles and shaky passing by the Razorbacks led the three-set deficit. The fourth set signaled a switch for Pulliza and his team. They won the first five points of the set to seize early control. The offense responded, as well, with a .400 hitting percentage during the game, doubling the effort of the opponent.

This marks the Razorbacks’ first five-match winning streak under head coach Robert Pulliza. Jasmine Norton led the way for Arkansas (5-0) with 19 kills, her 21st match in a row with a double-digit kill total. Kendall Cleveland added 12 kills on a .355 hitting percentage. Freshman libero Brooke Fournier posted the first 20-dig effort of her young career with 22 digs against Chattanooga (0-4). As they did Tuesday against Oral Roberts, the Razorbacks came out strong to win the first set but faded to drop games two and three. Chattanooga posted a .750 hitting percentage in the second set to even the match at one set apiece, and followed with a .406 mark in game three to put Arkansas on the verge of its first loss of the season. The match turned on the Razorbacks’ early play at the net in the fourth set. Through the first three games against the Mocs, Arkansas posted just one total block but in game four alone, the team had six blocks, including two solo stuffs by freshman Alex Fitzmorris. Cleveland had a sethigh four kills and terminated at a .571 clip. Fournier frustrated the Chattanooga offense with nine digs in the set. A kill by Amanda Anderson gave the Razorbacks set point and Norton closed it out with a crosscourt thump. With the score tied, 2-2, in the fifth and decisive set, the Razorback ran off three consecutive points to grab an early lead and force Chattanooga to call a timeout. Arkansas stretched its lead to as much as five points but when that advantage shrank to two, 11-9, Pulliza called a timeout. After the pause in action, back-to-back kills by Cassie Clarke and Norton pushed the lead back to four. On match point, Arkansas watched as an attack by UTC sailed long for the win. Clarke finished the match with a season-high 45 assists. Anderson and Kelli Stipanovich chipped in eight and seven kills, respectively, to bolster the Razorbacks’ offensive attack. At the net, Fitzmorris and Clarke each posted five total blocks.

Brooke Fournier had her first of four 20-dig matches of the season in Arkansas’ five-set win over Chattanooga.

Kelli Stipanovich led the Razorbacks with a season-high 18 kills and .630 hitting percentage and Cassie Clarke posted her first double-double of the season with 43 assists and a team-high 11 digs. The attendance figure during Tuesday’s match is the second-largest total in program history. After forcing a decisive set with a win in game four, Arkansas (6-2) fell behind early in the fifth but responded to tie the score, 6-6, in the race to 15 points. Oklahoma (5-3) won three points in a row to set itself up for the victory. The Razorbacks got as close as two but on match point, the visitor sealed the victory with a kill by Suzy Boulavsky, who finished the night with a match-high 22 kills. With the score knotted at 18 in set one, the Razorbacks reeled off three quick points, capped by a service ace by Brooke Fournier, to take the lead for good. On set point, Kendall Cleveland ripped a serve down the line for an ace to give Arkansas the first-set win, 25-22. The Sooners cranked up their offensive output in the second to send the teams into the locker room tied at one set apiece. Leading by one early in the game, the visitors pushed its lead to five, 13-8, with the help of Arkansas hitting errors. Boulavsky gave Oklahoma a nine-point lead, its largest of the set, with a kill and her team led, 23-14. The Sooners went on to win the set, 25-19. The early stages of the third set went back and forth with Fournier tying the score, 7-7, with an ace. However, the Sooners replied with four consecutive points to regain control. The remainder of the set followed the pattern of the previous game with Oklahoma stretching its lead. An attack error by Cleveland gave OU a handful of set points and the Sooners took the game, 25-15. Seeing her first extended playing time of the match, Amanda Anderson tallied five kills on eight swings in game four. After the Sooners cut a once-four-point deficit to one, Arkansas called a timeout and won the next two points out of the break to lead, 20-17. Stipanovich gave the Hogs set point and closed out the game-four victory, 25-21, with another putaway. In spite of the loss, Arkansas continued to show progress at the net. The Razorbacks outblocked OU, 10.0-7.0, behind five total blocks by Charmaine Whitmore. Stipanovich followed with four blocks and Clarke added three swats. It was Arkansas’ third match of the season with a double-digit block total.

Trailing by a point in the opener, the Razorbacks reeled off three points in a row to take a 9-7 lead and force MTSU to take its first timeout of the match. The home team controlled the middle stages of the game and forced a timeout with MTSU ahead, 18-15. The Razorbacks bounded out of the timeout with a 9-0 run to arrive at set point.The Blue Raiders won the next two points, but Norton found the floor with an attack out of the back row to give Arkansas the set, 25-20. In game two, Middle Tennessee improved its offensive output to control the flow of action. Both teams terminated at a high level--.313 for the Hogs and .346 for MTSU--but the Blue Raiders took advantage at the service line, notching two aces and capitalizing on five serving miscues by Arkansas. The Razorbacks saved two set points before Izabela Kozon evened the match with a kill for MTSU. Arkansas trailed by as many as five points early in the third set but rallied to pull to within one, 13-12, on a kill by Norton and behind the jump serve of Cleveland. Middle Tennessee responded with three quick points, including back-to-back kills by Stacy Oladinni, and the Razorbacks used their second timeout of the set. The Blue Raiders pushed its lead to as much as seven and, on set point, MTSU got a kill from Kozon to close out game three. After the Hogs won the first point of the fourth set, Middle Tennessee rattled off 10 consecutive points. Arkansas closed its deficit to six after a MTSU attack error to force the home team to call a timeout. Out of the timeout, the Blue Raiders won four consecutive points to regain momentum.

The setback is Arkansas’ first three-set loss of the season. Cassie Clarke tallied 37 assists and a team-best nine digs while Janeliss Torres-Lopez and Hayley Koop added six and five kills, respectively; in reserve duty, Torres-Lopez posted a .625 hitting percentage. Norton’s kill total is one off her season high of 20, set Aug. 31 at Oral Roberts. Torres-Lopez and Kelli Stipanovich each notched three total blocks to lead the team. After a back-and-forth start to the first set, the teams found themselves knotted up at 16-16, but Albany put together the first big scoring run of the game, a four-point swing, to grab control. The Razorbacks called a timeout to break the momentum and a kill by Koop closed the deficit to three but Arkansas got no closer. Norton found the floor to save one set point but net a serve on the next play to give Albany the game-one win, 25-20. Both teams put together strong offensive efforts in the opener. The Razorbacks hit .367 in the first set but Albany countered with a .500 hitting percentage and just one hitting error. Norton totaled eight kills in the game one to lead all hitters and Koop added three. An early deficit put the Razorbacks behind in game two. After splitting the first two points, Albany put together a four-point run to go ahead, 5-1. The Great Danes’ lead reached as high as nine points but Arkansas strung together a rally and after a kill by Norton, Albany’s lead was down to three, 23-20. The last three points of game started, and ended, with service errors, including two by the Razorbacks and Albany went into the locker room with a two-set lead. The Great Danes’ carried the momentum into the third game and built a 12-6 lead. As was the case in the first two sets, Arkansas rallied back and pulled to within one after a kill by Norton. During that stretch, Norton had a hand in each of the five points with three kills and two block assists. However, Albany won five of the next six points to regain control and snuff out the rally attempt. After pushing its advantage to as much as eight points, Albany took advantage of a Razorback service error to complete the sweep.

The Razorbacks fall to 6-5 overall, while UAB improves to 3-6; Arkansas is now 2-2 in five-set matches this season. Despite the loss, several Razorbacks turned in stellar performances that helped fuel the team’s attack, offensively and defensively. Jasmine Norton matched her career high with 29 kills (29-569, .348) and set a new career best with 22 digs, the second 20-20 performance of her career. At the net, Janeliss Torres-Lopez posted a career-high 11.0 total blocks, increasing her previous best by four. Behind the block, libero Brooke Fournier collected a career-best 26 digs. Directing the offense, Cassie Clarke had a season-high 52 assists. The sophomore setter also tied her career best with 12 digs to complete her second double-double effort of the year. Hayley Koop turned in nine kills and Kendall Cleveland added eight putaways for the Razorbacks. Collectively, Arkansas had a season-high 14.0 total team blocks. In the fifth set, the teams traded points without gaining much of a lead but back-to-back kills by the Blazers’ Sam Serley and Jordan McDonald gave UAB a three-point advantage, 10-7, and forced head coach Robert Pulliza to call his first timeout of the game. The Blazers maintained their lead and eventually arrived at match point, 14-12, on a kill by Michelle Uzoh. The Razorbacks fought off the first with a tandem block by Amanda Anderson and Kelli Stipanovich and then tied the score when Norton found the floor for her final kill of the match. Another putaway by Serley gave UAB another match point but Anderson turned up with a kill to even the score one more time. The Blazers, however, sealed the victory with consecutive kills by Serley. She led UAB with 23 kills while Uzoh and McDonald totaled 19 and 17 kills, respectively. The Blazers’ libero Heather Thomas notched a match-high 30 digs. Four UAB players, including Thomas, finished the match with at least 10 digs. Arkansas and UAB split the first four sets with the Razorbacks taking games one and three and the Blazers winning the second and fourth sets. In games two and four, Arkansas’ offense stuttered with hitting percentages of .190 and .162, respectively. In the decisive game, both teams fired on all cylinders with Arkansas attacking at a .344 mark and UAB posting a .382 figure.

With the score tied, 17-17, the Razorbacks won the next four points to grab the momentum. Ole Miss responded with three in a row to pull to within one but Norton tallied three consecutive kills to bring Arkansas to set point. Like she did to start the set, Anderson found the floor on the slide attack to seal the game. With the momentum on their side, the Razorbacks raced out to a 9-2 lead behind the serves of Fournier and Koop. Ole Miss began to chisel away and used a five-point push to get back into the set. Regina Thomas posted a kill to pull the Rebels even. Arkansas responded to take an 18-15 lead on an attack error by Cravens. However, Cravens came back with a kill later to give her team the lead for good. The Razorbacks saved two match points-kills by Koop and Anderson-but Thomas put the ball away for the win on Ole Miss’ third opportunity.

Janeliss Torres-Lopez had a team-high nine kills and libero Brooke Fournier and Jasmine Norton led the Razorbacks with 12 and 10 digs, respectively. In the opening game, the two teams traded points throughout a majority of the set. Neither team led by more than three as both sides looked for ways to grab any momentum. Arkansas (9-13, 3-8 SEC) grabbed that three-point lead, 19-16 on a kill by Norton and forced a timeout by Auburn (16-7, 7-4). The Tigers responded and the set score was tied, 23-23, after a service ace by Sarah Bullock. However, after an attack error by AU’s Katherine Culwell, Arkansas had an opportunity to close out the game. On set point for the Razorbacks, Culwell made up for the error with a kill to tie the score. The Tigers came away with the set win after a hitting miscue by Torres-Lopez. The first set was a defensive struggle with Arkansas posting a .026 hitting percentage and Auburn carrying just a .098 mark. The beginning stages of game two followed a similar pattern. Both teams went back and forth until Auburn grabbed a three-point lead, 17-14, on an attack error by Torres-Lopez. After a timeout by Pulliza, the Razorbacks won two points in a row, including a kill by Stipanovich. But the home team won the last six points of set two to take a 2-0 set lead into halftime. Out of the locker room, Auburn raced out to a 5-0 lead to start game three. The Razorbacks rallied behind a scrappy defense to get back into the set. A four-point run, capped by a Torres-Lopez kill, pulled the team even and the score was tied, 9-9. However, the Tigers rattled off a 9-3 run to regain control of the action. Arkansas saved one match point but on the second, Brittney Rhude found the floor to seal the match in favor of Auburn.

Jasmine Norton had a match-high 21 kills and Kendall Cleveland added 10 kills as the Razorbacks hit .311 as a team. Defensively, Charmaine Whitmore emerged in the middle with a career-high nine total blocks. In game one, Georgia (11-12, 3-9 SEC) jumped out to a 6-2 lead after a kill by Valentina Gonzalez. The Bulldogs’ middle blockers controlled set one with a combined 10 kills, six of those from Gonzalez. The largest lead of the set for UGA was nine points. A kill by Cleveland saved the first point for UGA but on the second shot, Hayley Koop served into the net to give the Bulldogs the game. Set two was a much tighter battle with the Razorbacks grabbing their first lead of the match, 5-4, on a tandem block by Whitmore and Raymariely Santos. Arkansas (10-13, 4-8) later pushed its lead to four after a service ace by libero Brooke Fournier. After a mini-push by the Bulldogs, the back-and-forth action between the two teams featured eight ties. With the outcome of game two up in the air, Norton turned on the jets for her and had a hand in the final three points of the set for the Razorbacks, including a tandem block with Whitmore and two kills. Both teams battled for control of the action in the early stages of set three. Out of a timeout called by Georgia, the Razorbacks won two points in a row to take a five-point lead, 14-9, after a UGA hitting miscue. Arkansas maintained its level of play and led by six, 22-16, after Santos and Whitmore combined to a block of Gonzalez. Despite a late push by the Bulldogs to get themselves back into the set, the Razorbacks put away with the game victory with back-to-back kills by Norton. Set four was a carbon copy of the two previous games. Arkansas finally grabbed a three-point lead, 16-13, after a mistimed connection between Kathleen Gates and Simone May. Whitmore made her presence felt in the middle with a solo stuff of Ann Dylla to give the Razorbacks a late five-point advantage. A kill for Norton gave the team four match points and on the third opportunity, the sophomore attacker notched her final putaway of the day for the Razorback win. Against the Bulldogs, Norton and Cleveland put up hitting percentages of .444 and .421, respectively. Kelli Stipanovich was third on the team with nine kills and a .364 hitting percentage. Fournier finished the match with a team-high nine digs. Santos was right behind with seven digs and directed the offense with 37 assists.

Raymariely Santos turned in a double-double performance, her second of the season, with 49 assists and 10 digs. Amanda Anderson and Charmaine Whitmore added nine and seven kills, respectively, for the Razorbacks. The kill total for Whitmore is a career high. Santos opened the match with a service ace and Arkansas (11-13, 5-8 SEC) won the first four points behind the serve of the freshman setter. The Crimson Tide rallied to tie the score, 10-10, but the Razorbacks reeled off five points in a row The home team maintained its lead, pushing its advantage to as high as seven. On the team’s fourth set point, Torres-Lopez had a kill to give the Razorbacks the opening game, 25-20. The fortunes for the two teams flipped in the second set as Alabama (9-13, 1-11) won nine of the first 10 points of the game to grab control; the visitors’ lead peaked at 14 points.

Libero Brooke Fournier picked up five digs in set three; she finished the match with a team-high 11. Arkansas built a four-point lead early in game four. Despite the early lead for the Razorbacks, the fourth set turned into the tightest game of the match. With the score tied at 14-14, the teams began a back-and-forth battle that featured 11 ties down the stretch.

Jasmine Norton and Hayley Koop paced the team with 17 and 10 kills, respectively. Defensively, libero Brooke Fournier had a team-high 11 digs and Charmaine Whitmore tallied a match-high seven total blocks. Arkansas’ three-match winning streak is its longest since opening the season with a 5-0 record. The Razorbacks’ three-set win is their first of the conference season and the first by the team since a Sept. 4 victory over Akron at the Jayhawk Classic. Running the show for Arkansas (12-13, 6-8 SEC), Raymariely Santos had 38 assists and five digs. Kelli Stipanovich added eight kills and seven digs against the Bulldogs. Koop’s 10 kills are an SEC-season high for the freshman and she registered a career-best .500 hitting percentage. In game one, the visitors won three of the first four points but Arkansas rallied to take an 11-7 lead after a hitting error by Mississippi State (11-13, 3-10). The Razorbacks maintained their lead throughout the first set, leading by as many as six, 20-14, after a tandem block by Koop and Whitmore. A kill by Koop gave Arkansas set point and Amanda Anderson clinched the opener, 25-20, with a putaway out of the middle. On the heels of her 11-kill effort in the fourth set of Friday’s win, Norton led the way with seven kills in the first set against Mississippi State. The defense posted four total team blocks and held the Bulldogs’ attack to a -.059 hitting percentage in the opener. After falling behind early in set two, the Razorbacks put together a seven-point run to take an 8-4 lead and force an MSU timeout. Out of the timeout, Mississippi State used a run of its own, a five-point streak to get back in the game. The Bulldogs held the lead through the middle stages of the set but Arkansas regained the lead for good, 20-19, when an Ashley Newsome attack sailed long. A six-point surge, capped by a Norton kill, gave the Razorbacks set point. The sophomore attacker found the floor again to wrap the set, 25-20, and send the teams into the locker rooms. As it did in games one and two, Mississippi State went out to an early lead in the third set but Arkansas fought back to take a 7-6 lead on a service ace by Fournier. The Razorbacks wouldn’t trail again. With the score tied at 14, the home team used a 6-1 streak to grab the final swing of momentum in the match. Koop ended the push with her final kill of the afternoon. On match point, an attack by MSU’s Caitlin Rance landed out to give Arkansas the win and complete the weekend sweep.

Defensively, the Razorbacks out-dug Ole Miss, 78-66, and finished the match with eight total team blocks. Libero Brooke Fournier added 16 digs. Ahead by one late in the first set, Arkansas (13-13, 7-8 SEC) used a three-point surge to take control. A tandem block by Torres-Lopez and Hayley Koop gave the Razorbacks a 21-17 lead and forced Ole Miss (17-7, 11-4) to call its second timeout. The Rebels pulled to within one with a push of their own but the home team arrived at set point, 24-21, after an Ole Miss attack error. On the team’s third set point, Norton found the floor to wrap up the game, 25-23. The Razorbacks’ offense dominated the first set with a .382 hitting percentage, paced by Torres-Lopez and Stipanovich. The pair combined for 11 kills in the opener, committing just one error between them. Ole Miss turned the tide in the second game to even the match going into intermission. The Rebels won six of the first eight points in the second set and led by as many as nine points, 15-6. Arkansas put together a string of points to pull to within two after a kill by Stipanovich but the Rebels responded with a 6-2 run to take game two, 25-19. Out of the locker room, the Razorbacks used an early four-point spurt to take a 10-6 lead. Their lead grew to seven after a hitting miscue by Ole Miss. However, the momentum switched to the other side of the net when the Rebels reeled off seven points in a row to tie the score at 16-16. Torres-Lopez put the ball down on the next play to break the streak and the team regained control. Norton capped a three-point run to end the set, 25-20, and put the Razorbacks one game away from the win. The teams battled to a 6-6 tie to start the fourth set but Arkansas won the next six points behind the serve of Stipanovich to push away from its opponent. A kill by Stipanovich pushed the Razorbacks lead to eight, the largest of the set. The team had a handful of match points after a Norton kill. On the third try, Cassie Clarke flicked a set back to Santos who put the ball away to end the set, 25-20, and clinch the match.

The loss snaps the Razorbacks’ four-match winning streak. Defensively, libero Brooke Fournier had a team-high 10 digs and Norton added nine digs. At the net, Janeliss Torres-Lopez notched a match-high eight total blocks as the Razorbacks had 11.0 blocks as a team. With her second kill of the match, Norton tied Anna Velikanova (2000-02) on the program’s all-time kills list. She later reached the 900-kill mark for her career with a putaway in the second set. With 14 kills against the Wildcats, Norton now sits alone in 14th place on Arkansas’ career list. She is the 14th player in program history to total at least 900 kills and currently sits at 910 for her career. Kentucky (15-12, 9-8 SEC) won the first three points of the match behind a strong blocking performance. From the outset, the Razorbacks were caught playing catch up for the remainder of the game. Behind a pair of five-point runs, the Wildcats led by as much nine in the set. Becky Pavan put down the final two kills to seal the set win for Kentucky, 25-16. Arkansas (13-14, 7-9) never got on track offensively in the game and was held to a negative hitting percentage. In the second set, the Razorbacks used a strong start to win four of the first five points of the game. However, with the score tied at six, the home team used a 6-1 scoring run to gain control of play. Arkansas pulled to within three points on a couple of occasions, the final time coming on a slide-attack kill for Charmaine Whitmore. Kentucky responded with three points in a row extend its lead back to six. Norton saved one UK set point with a kill but on the next point, Whitney Billings found the floor to close out the game, 25-19, in favor of the Wildcats. Game three, the tightest of the match, began with the teams going back and forth and neither able to grab the momentum. The score was tied seven times before either reached 10 points. A modest 5-1 stretch for the Wildcats put them ahead for good. Arkansas didn’t go without a fight, and after trailing by five through the middle stages of the set, the Razorbacks strung together four points in a row to pull even, 19-19. The final two points of that push came via a Stipanovich kill and solo block. With the game up for grabs, UK reeled off three points in a row to regain the advantage. Kelli Stipanovich posted another solo block on the Wildcats’ first match point but Kentucky clinched the straight-set win with a kill by Lauren Rapp. Along with Stipanovich’s effort, Norton posted seven kills in the third game.

Janeliss Torres-Lopez’s 22 kills were the fifth-highest total by an SEC player during the conference season in 2010.

FAYETTEVILLE - Janeliss Torres-Lopez paced the Razorbacks with a career-high 22 kills as the University of Arkansas volleyball team took a four-set win (25-21, 23-25, 26-24, 25-17) against the South Carolina Gamecocks in Southeastern Conference action on Senior Day at Barnhill Arena. Arkansas (14-16, 8-11 SEC) jumped out to an early advantage, winning five of the first seven points of the match. A kill by Torres-Lopez gave the home team a 10-5 lead and forced a timeout out of South Carolina head coach Ben Somera. Later in the set, South Carolina (7-22, 4-15) pulled to within one on a kill by Christina Glover but the Razorbacks never gave up the lead. On the team’s second set point, Torres-Lopez found the floor to give Arkansas the set. The Gamecocks shook off the setback and went out to a 4-1 lead in the second set. The visitors never trailed in the set and opened their largest lead of six, 20-14, on a kill by Hannah Lawing. Arkansas responded immediately by winning the next five points and trailed by just one after a Carolina attack error. With a pair of set points in hand, South Carolina tied the match at one with a kill by Juliette Thevenin. The third set was decided in the late stages of the game. Arkansas erased a deficit to tie the score, 24-24, with back-to-back kills by Raymariely Santos and Kendall Cleveland. Torres-Lopez followed with Arkansas’ third-straight point and Arkansas made short work of the set Arkansas’ four-point run to close it out was the only spurt of more than two points either way the entire set and gave the Razorbacks the momentum heading into the fourth. South Carolina did not appear to show the ill effects of a tough third set loss early as it matched Arkansas point-for-point to 3-3, but the Razorbacks would go on a 7-1 run which spanned a South Carolina timeout to open a sizeable 10-4 lead and never looked back. Arkansas spread the ball around as Jasmine Norton and Torres-Lopez each had four kills while Amanda Anderson posted three and Kelli Stipanovich a pair. Fittingly for Arkansas, Torres-Lopez closed out the match with the final two points to give the Razorbacks the win. Behind Torres-Lopez 22 kills, Stipanovich was the only other Razorback to post double-digits in the category with 10. Santos led the team in assists with 45 and Brooke Fournier’s 15 digs was also a team high. South Carolina got big games from Thevenin (18 kills, 10 digs) and Hannah Lawing (12-13) as they each posted double-doubles in the loss.

Kelli Stipanovich closed out her junior season with 14 kills and a .367 hitting percentage against the Tigers. Jasmine Norton also tallied double-digit kills with 10 putaways in the match. Arkansas (14-17, 8-12 SEC) fell behind early in game one thanks to some hot hitting by the Tigers and after a kill by Tania Schatow, the deficit was four to force a timeout out of Pulliza. After the pause in action, the Razorbacks rattled off the next four points, including back-to-back kills by Stipanovich, to tie the score at 12-12. LSU (25-4, 16-4) responded to win four of the next five points to regain control. The visitors won the final three points of the set to take the opener, 25-19. All of the Razorbacks’ offense in the first set came off the arm of three players with Stipanovich leading the way with six kills. Janeliss Torres-Lopez and Norton added five and four kills, respectively, while Raymariely Santos directed the offense with 12 assists in the first set. The second set started similarly to the first with the Tigers jumping out to an early lead. Like they did in the opener, the Razorbacks came out of a timeout with a run of points to pull even. The middle stages of the set saw both teams trade points until the 14-14 mark. LSU used a short three-point run to go ahead for good. On the team’s first set point, Brittney Johnson and Michelle Williams teamed up for a block to give the Tigers the two-set lead. The beginning of game three featured back-and-forth play. Norton posted a solo block of a Johnson attack to tie the score at 8-8. However, the Tigers reeled off four points in a row to seize the momentum for the final time. LSU began to pull away and extend its lead to as much as six. A kill by Alex Fitzmorris saved one match point but on the next rally, Schatow clinched the win for LSU with a kill. Norton finishes the season as the top attacker for Arkansas with 3.83 kills per set, followed by Stipnaovich and Torres-Lopez with 2.40 and 1.94 kills per set, respectively. Libero Brooke Fournier, who had seven digs against LSU, led the team with 3.06 digs per set this season, while Torres-Lopez paced the defensive effort at the net with 1.03 blocks per set. The Razorbacks finish the 2010 season with a 14-17 overall record and an 8-12 mark in SEC play. Both win totals represent highs for the program under Pulliza.

2011 ARKANSAS RAZORBACK VOLLEYBALL


1,000-KILL CLUB Adding the sport in 1994, the University of Arkansas has a short, 18-year history of volleyball. In that time, 13 Razorbacks have tallied 1,000 or more kills. Here’s a look at those special players and their numbers. Two players, Krystal Osborne and Denise Baez, were members of the inaugural team in 1994. Another, Christina Lawrence, completed her eligibility during the 2008 season.

STALKING THE 1,000-KILL CLUB: As the Razorbacks’ primary attackers during the 2010 season, Jasmine Norton and Kelli Stipanovich put a dent in Arkansas’ all-time kills list. Entering the 2011 campaign, Norton stands 14th with 947 career kills while Stipanovich is 16th with 891 career putaways, putting both in position to join the list of elite players in program history to eclipse the 1,000-kill mark. Should both reach the mark this season, it will mark the fourth time Razorback teammates have reached the mark in the same season.

Equally as impressive is Arkansas’ seven-member 1,000-dig club, five of those players also had at least 1,000 kills during their careers. Ashley Miller moved into top spot in 2007 and holds every digs record at Arkansas. Miller held the SEC career digs record until the 2009 season; she is now No. 2 on the conference’s all-time list.

ARKANSAS IN THE POSTSEASON 1996

“We’re in!! We’re in!!” was the cry in 1996 when a three-year old Arkansas volleyball team made its first appearance in the NCAA Tournament. The young program was honored to have been selected to the field of 48 teams and was surprised to learn they would host the first round due to a scheduling conflict for their opponent. Rhode Island made the trip to Fayetteville and battled Arkansas valiantly before falling in a five-set battle, 15-12, 15-8, 12-15, 9-15, 1511. The victory sent Arkansas to Lincoln, Neb., where they faced defending national champion Nebraska in a four-game thriller. Arkansas lost the match, 15-8, 12-15, 15-7, 157, but not before they won the hearts of the volleyball-savvy Cornhuskers fan, players and coaching staff.

1997

The field expanded and Arkansas was again selected for the NCAA Tournament. But this time it was no surprise. The Razorbacks had done the impossible, knocking off No. 4 Florida in the Southeastern Conference Tournament finals, 15-7, 15-7, 17-15, in Athens, Ga., to receive the automatic bid. Again selected to host, Arkansas hardly broke a sweat downing in-state rival ArkansasLittle Rock in straight sets, 15-11, 15-3, 15-3, advancing to the second round. Notre Dame came to Fayetteville with upset on its mind and did just that, eliminating the Razorbacks in front of the home crowd in four games, 15-9, 7-15, 10-15, 14-16.

1998

Arkansas received its third consecutive invitation to the NCAA Tournament in 1998 and took its game to a new level. The Razorbacks were again selected to host first- and second-round matches, and with the bitter taste of the previous season’s loss to Notre Dame still fresh in their mouths, Arkansas rose to the challenge. The Razorbacks opened with a first-round win over New Hampshire, 15-3, 15-0, 15-13, in Barnhill Arena. The second round saw the Razorbacks crush Indiana, 15-8, 15-5, 15-4, sending them to Gainesville, Fla., where Arkansas faced a tough postseason team in Hawai’i. The Rainbow Wahine handed Arkansas a 3-0 loss but not before senior Kim Storey made a name for herself, earning East Regional AllTournament Team honors and becoming the second AVCA All-American in program history.

98

1999

Selected to the field of 64 in 1999, Arkansas faced their first-round match on the road for the first time in school history. The Razorbacks found themselves in Long Beach, Calif., where they opened with a first-round victory over Georgetown, 15-3, 1015, 15-1, 15-6. They had the unenviable task of facing the defending national champion in the second round for the second time in four trips, falling to host Long Beach State, 6-15, 6-15, 11-15, to be eliminated.

2005

The 2001 season marked a return to NCAA postseason play for a young Razorback team. Arkansas struggled in the opening two weeks of the season with a particularly bad showing against Kansas State in the Wildcat Classic. The volleyball gods gave Arkansas a chance to redeem itself, sending the Razorbacks back to Manhattan, Kan., for a first-round matchup with Kansas State. Arkansas lost the match but not before gaining a new sense of respect from Kansas State and its fans as the Razorbacks pushed the host team to five games, narrowly missing the game-five win.

Arkansas made its third consecutive postseason appearance, once again traveling to Columbia, Mo., in December. Arkansas’ invitation was one of six extended to the Southeastern Conference, the most ever for the league. Also making NCAA Tournament appearances were Alabama, Florida, Kentucky, LSU and Tennessee. The Lady Vols advanced to the national semfinals before being eliminated. The Razorbacks opened their tournament with St. Mary’s of California in a match that was nearly even on paper. Both teams were known as solid blocking programs and both had similar offensive numbers but Arkansas emerged as the night’s victor. The Razorbacks dominated the contest, outhitting St. Mary’s, .358-.111, and outblocking the Gaels, 14.05.0, in the three-game win. Senior Karla Crose hit a match-best .857 with six kills and no errors on seven attempts. She also led the match with 10 block assists in the win. Junior Amy Allison added a sevenkill, .538-hitting percentage effort while junior Denitza Koleva led Arkansas with 11 kills. The victory moved Arkansas into the second round where it faced host team and 10thranked Missouri for a second consecutive season. Missouri got the best of Arkansas, ending the careers of seniors Crose and Iva Docekalova. Kele Brewer paced the Razorbacks with 10 kills in the loss.

2001

It was back to the Dance for the Razorbacks in 2003 with a return trip to Manhattan, Kan., for first- and second-round action. Arkansas avenged an early season loss to No. 23 Southwest Missouri, downing the Bears in four games, but fell to host and sixthranked Wildcats in three games. Arkansas hit .232 behind 11 kills from freshmen Denitza Koleva and Kele Brewer. The Razorbacks added 11 team blocks in the loss.

Not only did Arkansas get into the NCAA Tournament in 2006, but the Razorbacks were selected as a surprise host after higher-seeded Oklahoma was unable to accommodate the tournament. Arkansas was eliminated in the first round by Missouri State, ending the careers of seniors Denitza Koleva, Kele Brewer and Amy Allison. The trio of Razorbacks were the first class in program history to attend the NCAA Tournament all four seasons they played at Arkansas.

2004

Selection to the 2004 NCAA Tournament may be one of the more rewarding bids in program history. The Razorbacks faced one of the nation’s toughest schedules and the team’s won-loss record reflected the challenges. But the gamble by head coach Chris Poole paid off as the team was selected to the field of 64 for its seventh NCAA Tournament appearance. Arkansas traveled to Columbia, Mo., to face No. 16 Missouri on the Tigers’ home court in the first round. The Razorbacks fell in four games, 28-30, 21-30, 30-25, 26-30, in a hardfought battle. Sophomore Kele Brewer tallied a team-leading 17 kills and freshman Ashley Miller added 24 digs in the setback.

THE SOUTHEASTERN CONFERENCE The Southeastern Conference continues to flourish as a solid and competitive league in women’s collegiate volleyball and has made stellar contributions in the sport. The conference has sent at least two SEC teams to the NCAA Tournament in every season the last 21 years. The SEC had a team reach the Final Four seven of the 10 seasons in the ‘90s with the league having a team advance to the regional final nine of those 10 seasons. Since 2000, the SEC has had a team reach the Final Four three times and regional final four times. In 2010, the Florida Gators won the SEC title, their 19th in program history. The title by Florida set the Gators back on top of the league after an 18-year reign was snapped in 2009. The SEC sent six teams to the NCAA Tournament: Auburn, Florida, Kentucky, LSU, Ole Miss and Tennessee. This marked the first appearance for Auburn in program history. Auburn and Tennessee advanced to the Second round, while Florida advanced to the Regional semifinal. Since the inaugural SEC volleyball championship in 1979-80, many changes have occurred in the conference with volleyball. The addition of Arkansas and South Carolina to the league in 1991 brought the divisional format to the sport with five teams competing in the Eastern Division and six teams in the Western Division. In 2009, the SEC entered into an unprecedented TV agreement with ESPN that provided exclusive coverage of SEC athletics. With the arrangement, SEC volleyball is now broadcast on three different platforms: ESPNU, FOX Sports South and CSS/CST. Live SEC volleyball coverage can now reach into 73 million homes nation-wide on ESPNU, and in the SEC nine-state region, 25 million homes on FOX Sports South, and 10 million homes on CSS and CST. • The 2010 season marked the 21st consecutive season in which the SEC placed at least two teams in the NCAA Tournament. The SEC landed six teams in the NCAA Tournament: Florida Gators, Kentucky Wildcats, LSU Tigers and Tennessee Lady Vols, Auburn Tigers and the Ole Miss Rebels. • The Florida Gators captured the No. 1 national seed, marking the first in school history and in SEC history. • Florida captured its 19th SEC title in 2010. • LSU claimed the Western Division crown in 2010 for the sixth consecutive season. • Seven student-athletes were named to ESPN The Magazine Academic All-District teams for a total of 63 all-time. • Tennessee’s Nikki Fowler was named CoSIDA/ESPN The Magazine First Team Academic All-America, while Mississippi State’s Kayla Woodard was named Third Team. • The 2010 All-SEC teams had all 11 schools represented, marking the first time since 2000 this has happened. This includes the All-Freshmen team. • Florida has extended the nation’s longest streak of consecutive 25-win seasons to 20. • The SEC earned three AVCA All-America honors in 2010: Kelly Murphy (UF), First Team; Nikki Fowler (UT) and Regina Thomas (UM), Third Team. This marks the third overall AA honor for Murphy, first First Team selection, and the first AA honors for Fowler and Thomas. • Six SEC student-athletes earned 2010 AVCA All-America Honorable Mention honors.

Old Main

One of the original buildings on Arkansas’ campus, Old Main symbolizes the strong connection to the past and the focus upon the future which come together in the present at the University of Arkansas. Completed in 1875, Old Main stood the test of time until the mid-1980s when age and modern building codes threatened to send it to the wrecking ball as had happened to its sister building at the University of Illinois. A major fund-raising campaign by alumni totally renovated Old Main. Reopening in 1992, the building maintains the feel of a Victorian-era building with high ceilings and elaborate wooden trim. Just below the surface of the period hardwood floors, Old Main is hard-wired to the internet and built to last well into its second century. Even with renovation, Old Main remained unfinished until 2005. One of the gifts during the Campaign for the Twenty-First Century specified the installation of a clock, originally planned for the blank faces of the south tower. As mentioned, Old Main was built from shared plans with its counterpart on the Illinois campus, with one important difference. The north tower of Arkansas’ Old Main is taller than the south tower. Legend says this was symbolic of the Civil War as the lead engineer was a northern veteran.

Senior Walk

The University of Arkansas is proud to be the last university in the nation maintaining what once was a common tradition of etching its graduates’ names into the campus sidewalks. The 100,000th graduate’s name went down in cement during the 1990s. The names on Senior Walk stretch over three miles of campus sidewalks. The story of Senior Walk is a perfect example of how the University of Arkansas brings its commitment to the past together with innovations for the future. When the costs involved in hand-etching names into concrete forced numerous other universities to give up, the University of Arkansas turned to its physical plant and engineering school grads to create a one-of-a-kind computerized sandblasting machine -- the SandHog. Each summer, the SandHog roars across the front lawn of Old Main, etching the names of graduates into sidewalks.

As chancellor, Dr. Gearhart instituted the first tuition freeze in 24 years and implemented a $220 million campus building renovation and refurbishment plan, as well as a campus-wide energy savings plan. He has also undertaken a renewed emphasis on the arts on campus, including the establishment of the “All Steinway Campus.” Dr. Gearhart has additionally implemented a major cost savings program that has already resulted in over $29.4 million in cost reduction and savings to the flagship campus. Campus enrollment has also grown by nearly 4,000 students in the past three years to almost 22,000 students. At the same time, diversity in the student body has increased significantly.

Dr . Sharon Hunt

Faculty Athletic Representative

Chancellor G. David Gearhart appointed Dr. Sharon Hunt to be the faculty athletics representative (FAR) for the University of Arkansas in August 2010. Dr. Hunt is the first woman and non-lawyer to hold the post. Dr. Hunt has been on the University of Arkansas faculty for 21 years and has served as head of the recently renamed Department of Health, Human Performance and Recreation in the College of Education and Health Professions for that entire time except for the 2000-01 academic year, when she served as interim dean of the college. On June 30, 2011 Dr. Hunt stepped down as Department Head and returned to the faculty at the rank of Professor giving her more time to devote to the FAR position. A high school athlete, Hunt’s involvement with collegiate athletics dates back to her own college days at the University of Arkansas when she played extramural sports with the women’s basketball and tennis teams prior to the enactment of Title IX. After receiving her bachelor’s and master’s degrees in physical education from the university, she went on to earn a doctor of education degree from the University of Georgia, where she taught a variety of sport-activity courses as a graduate assistant. Upon the completion of her doctoral degree, she joined the faculty of the University of Kentucky for 13 years, where she taught both undergraduate and graduate courses and served as the graduate coordinator for the Department of Health, Physical Education and Recreation. In 1990, she and her family returned to Fayetteville. The FAR’s responsibilities lie in three broad areas: academic integrity within the athletics program, student-athlete well-being, and institutional control of the athletics program. Dr. Hunt is involved in the student-athlete advisory council on campus and chairs the Academic Credential Review Committee and Athletic’s Academic Integrity Committee, and serves as an ex-officio member of the Faculty Athletics Committee. In addition, she travels to represent the University of Arkansas at various SEC and NCAA meetings. Dr. Hunt was instrumental in establishing the graduate athletic training education program in the College of Education and Health Professions, and she has worked closely with athletics on that program. The athletics department provides support to students in the athletic training education program in the form of a stipend, books and travel to the Arkansas Athletic Trainers’ Association annual meeting. Two endowed scholarships for athletic training students in honor of longtime Razorback trainers Dean Weber and the late Bill Ferrell were established through the athletics department. Dr. Hunt has been married to David Hunt since 1973, and they have an adult son and daughter as well as a grandson.

JEFF LONG

VICE CHANCELLOR FOR INTERCOLLEGIATE ATHLETICS & DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS Entering his fourth full year as Vice Chancellor and Director of Athletics, Jeff Long has guided the University of Arkansas’ Department of Intercollegiate Athletics through a period of unprecedented transition while revitalizing a tradition-rich athletics program encompassing 19 sports and more than 460 student-athletes. Long leads a comprehensive athletics program uniformly committed to the development of student-athletes academically, athletically and socially. A part of Chancellor G. David Gearhart’s Executive Committee, Long is helping to chart the course for the future of higher education at the University of Arkansas while integrating Razorback Athletics into the campus community. In each of the past two years, Razorback Athletics has made a $1 million gift to support the university’s academic mission bringing the department’s support of the greater university community to nearly $4 million. In Long’s tenure, Arkansas has captured eight conference championships and advanced to 53 post-season competitions, including the school’s first Bowl Championship Series appearance in football, while drawing more than a million fans annually to campus to cheer on the Razorbacks. In 2010-11, Arkansas finished in the top 25 of the NACDA Sports Directors Cup for the third time in the past four years, marking the first time in school history that has been accomplished. In the classroom, the Razorbacks continue to set new standards including posting a student-athlete grade point average exceeding 3.0 for an unprecedented third consecutive year. Arkansas exceeds the national APR multi-year rate by more than 10 points in 18 sports and has seen a steady rise in graduation success rates. Student-athlete development has also been a priority including the establishment of the Razorback Leadership Academy, the first of its kind in the Southeastern Conference. In the community, Razorback student-athletes are more active than ever volunteering more than 3,300 hours of time for more than 80 agencies, organizations and schools. Long was selected to replace legendary athletic director and former Razorback football coach Frank Broyles and even before he officially took the reins on Jan. 1, 2008, Arkansas announced that it would combine its previously independent men’s and women’s athletic programs into one combined athletic program. Long adeptly blended the men’s and women’s athletic departments into one unified department and established a new administrative structure. He has recruited some of the nation’s most successful coaches to Arkansas including head football coach Bobby Petrino and head men’s basketball coach Mike Anderson. He also signed head baseball coach Dave Van Horn to a longterm deal to remain in Fayetteville. In fact, Arkansas is one of only four schools in the nation to boast coaches who have made a BCS bowl game, the Elite Eight and the College World Series. Long has also worked tirelessly to maintain long-time relationships and to forge new relationships for the benefit of the Razorback program including extending Arkansas’ relationship with War Memorial Stadium and helping reestablish the Razorbacks’ presence in Texas, partnering with former Razorback Jerry Jones to develop the Southwest Classic, a 10-year football series with Texas A&M played at the spectacular Cowboys Stadium.

As economic indicators were beginning to point toward challenging economic times, Long signed Arkansas to a deal with IMG College to form Razorback Sports Properties that guarantees the Razorback program $73 million during the course of the decade-long agreement. Long also negotiated an extensive all sports apparel and footwear agreement with NIKE, Inc. that will outfit all 19 Razorback sports programs through the 2014-15 season. Working alongside the Razorback Foundation leadership team, the athletic department recently launched the “Answer the Call” campaign to help meet the growing financial needs of fielding a nationally competitive all sports program. More than 2,600 new members have joined the Razorback Foundation while helping generate much needed support for Razorback student-athletes. A number of athletic facilities have also seen a transformation with Bud Walton Arena undergoing extensive renovations, including replacement of the lower seating bowl and the addition of courtside seating, ribbon boards and a courtside club room. In the spring of 2009, a new synthetic playing surface was installed at Donald W. Reynolds Razorback Stadium. With an eye towards the future, Long commissioned a master plan to assess the future facility needs of the program. Construction of a new football center is already underway with a targeted completion date in 2013. A veteran administrator with a track record of the highest commitment to the concept of “student-athlete,” Long has had more than two decades experience in athletic administration at the Division I level including at the University of Pittsburgh, University of Oklahoma, University of Michigan, Virginia Tech University, Eastern Kentucky University and Rice University. Long also understands the coach’s perspective from time spent in coaching staff positions at Duke University, University of Michigan and North Carolina State University. His experience as an athletic director and administrator in America’s most prestigious conferences – the Big 12, Big Ten, Big East, Atlantic Coast and now SEC - gives Long a uniquely informed perspective on intercollegiate athletics. During his career, Long has served in five of the six Bowl Championship Series leagues. On the forefront of NCAA governance, Long has served on the NCAA Management Council, the NCAA’s Sports Wagering Task Force and as a member of the Executive Committee of the Division I-A Athletic Directors’ Association. Long currently serves on the NCAA Championships\Sports Management Cabinet. Prior to assuming his current roles at Arkansas, Long served for four years as the athletic director at the University of Pittsburgh. Long redefined Pitt athletics, most notably through the “Quest for Excellence” campaign that raised nearly $34 million to enhance the student-athlete experience. During his tenure the Panthers’ were selected as the No. 17 overall program in the nation in the December 2006 Sports Illustrated on Campus’ All-Sport Rankings. Before arriving at Pitt, Long was senior associate athletic director at Oklahoma for two and a half years overseeing external affairs for the Sooners. In addition, Long was the primary administrator for the Sooners’ highly successful football and men’s basketball programs, along with sport supervision of baseball, wrestling and both golf teams. Long’s first appointment as a director of athletics was at Eastern Kentucky where he served for two and a half years. Prior to Eastern, Long had a brief stay with Virginia Tech as an associate athletics director. He began his career in college athletic administration at Michigan, hired by legendary coach and athletics director, the late Bo Schembechler. During his seasons with the Wolverines, Long was promoted through a series of posts to the position of associate athletics director. A former two-sport athlete at Ohio Wesleyan, Long earned seven varsity letters for the Bishops in football and baseball before completing his degree in economics in 1982. He started his post-graduate career in athletics working on head coach Tom Reed’s staff as a graduate assistant football coach at the cradle of coaches, Miami University of Ohio. Long earned his master’s in education at Miami in 1983, moving on to football staff positions at Rice, Duke and N.C. State prior to joining Michigan.
