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,
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 choose 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. 7 for their first official day of the 2012 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. Residents 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 at The Quads to your final Senior Walk, the University of Arkansas is a special place to call home.

2012 ARKANSAS RAZORBACK VOLLEYBALL MEDIA GUIDE
SEC 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 142-44 record, good for a .763 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. The SEC expanded prior to the start of the 2012-13 academic season with the additions of Texas A&M to the Western Division and Missouri to the Eastern Division.

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 11 such players in the program’s history and fans can look for many more in Arkansas’ future. From that group, six are on the 2012 roster by way of Roslandy Acosta (Venezuela), Ana Jusino (Puerto Rico), Jasmine Norton (USA), Raymariely Santos (Puerto Rico), Janeliss Torres-Lopez (Puerto Rico) and Ashley Vazquez (Puerto Rico). The first Razorback to earn USA recognition was Krystal Osborne (1994-97). 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.) Most recently, Pulliza and Norton were part of the 2nd Annual China-USA Challenge which saw a pair of American teams travel to China to compete against the top teams from Liaoning, Shanghai and Tianjin. Pulliza served as the head coach for the USA/BIP Development Team. CLICK HERE FOR BLOG POSTS FROM CHINA. “Being able to represent the USA is such an honor,” Norton said after being selected. “I’m looking forward to the challenge of international volleyball during our trip to China. I’m also really excited to be in a competitive environment as I get ready for my senior season.”

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.
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 on opposite page). 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 four years of head coaching experience under his belt at Arkansas, Pulliza remains active in the international coaching community. He has also served as a consultant to the Puerto Rican Junior National program. In February 2010, Pulliza served as an assistant 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. Torres-Lopez checks in for her fourth 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. Acosta, a 2011 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. Newcomers for the 2012 season, Jusino and Vazquez bring international experience to Fayetteville having rep-

resented Puerto Rico as part of the country’s youth and junior teams. 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. “At the University of Arkansas, we take great pride in training and it’s exciting to see that when an athlete 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!”

RAZORBACKS IN THE COMMUNITY
Being a part of the Northwest Arkansas community is an important part of being a Razorback. This ranges from team visits to area nursing homes to volunteer work with Race for the Cure and Special Olympics. The Razorback volleyball team finished second among all of the university’s teams in the Lee Spencer Cup standings, a department initiative that awards Arkansas’ teams based on academic excellence, athletic excellence, personal development, career development and service. 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
14
women’s golf, men’s and women’s tennis and softball. For the second consecutive year in conjuction with their spring offseason schedule, the Razorbacks hosted a clinic at Barnhill Arena with Special Olympics Arkansas (pictured below). More than 130 youth and adult players along with the Arkansas coaching staff and student-athletes were in attendance at the event. Arkansa also participated in the organization’s Area 3 Games in April. “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.� The volleyball team also paired with national organization Feed My
Starving Children to help pack meals for those in need, volunteered during the Walk for Love and takes visits to local veterans’ hospitals in the Northwest Arkansas area. 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.

ROBERT PULLIZA HEAD COACH | FIFTH SEASON | BALL STATE, ‘96
THE PULLIZA FILE COACHING EXPERIENCE ARKANSAS || HEAD COACH 2008-PRES.
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 Razorbacks on July 11, 2008. Pulliza, who is one of just a handful of coaches in the country to play and coach in the Final Four, became the second head coach in program history. 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. Heading into his fifth season at Arkansas, Pulliza spearheaded the program’s recruiting efforts that brought in the No. 26 recruiting class in the nation in 2012, according to PrepVolleyball.com’s Top 30 annual list. The ranking is the highest in program history by the publication. Only three SEC teams were ahead of the Razorbacks in the rankings. This marks Pulliza’s fourth recruiting class and has three players recognized by PrepVolleyball.com. Liz Fortado was ranked 75th, Ana Jusino was ranked 79th and Summer Morgan was one of 20 players to just miss being included inside the Top 100. Fortado was also named to the Under Armour High School All-American Team. Having completed his fourth season with the Razorbacks in 2011, Pulliza continued to guide his team toward joining the nation’s elite. At season’s end, Arkansas owned an 18-13 overall record-its highest win total since 2005-and a 10-win Southeastern Conference tally-the most by the program since the league went to the double round-robin format. The Razorbacks finished second in the SEC Western Division and fifth overall, the team’s best conference finish since the 2005 season. Pulliza’s effect on the Arkansas program can also be measured by the team’s reflection in the Rating Percentage Index (RPI). When he took over in 2008, the Razorbacks were ranked No. 140. However, the team
reached a season-high No. 56 in October 2011. Pulliza engineered the turnaround with just three recruiting classes under his belt. Among that collective group of players, he has an AVCA All-American in Norton, three All-SEC performers with Jasmine Norton, Amanda Anderson and Raymariely Santos and an Olympian in Roslandy Acosta. As part of its non-conference schedule, Arkansas claimed a pair of tournament titles with victories at the Deacon Invitational in Winston-Salem, N.C., and the West Point Challenge in New York. The Razorbacks’ record to start SEC play (8-3) was the sixth-best in program history. Arkansas also posted a pair of all-time offensive performances with a .430 hitting percentage against South Carolina and .421 mark against McNeese State. The team’s effort against the Gamecocks is tied for the fifth-highest percentage in school history and the fourth best in an SEC match. The Razorbacks’ figure against McNeese State ranks as the ninth-best hitting percentage in program history. Individually, Norton, a preseason All-SEC selection, and Kelli Stipanovich capped their respective seasons by earning All-SEC honors. Norton was named to the All-SEC First Team and Stipanovich, the fourth all-conference performer under Pulliza, was named to the All-SEC Second Team. For the first time since 2003, Arkansas had two players on either the league’s First- or Second-Team. Norton added to her collection of honors with a selection to COBRA Magazine’s Midsouth All-Region Team. Using a fast-paced offense and building a home schedule that featured five teams to play in the 2011 NCAA Tournament, Pulliza built a fan-friendly brand of volleyball that brought in the fans. The Razorbacks’ 2011 home attendance grew to a program high for the third consecutive season. In the season opener, a program-record 1,407 fans were in attendance as Arkansas

hosted No. 15 Colorado State. By season’s end, the Razorbacks had played in front of four of the top-10 home crowds in the storied history of Barnhill Arena. Eight of the top-10 home attendance figures have come during the past two seasons. In his third season at the helm of the Arkansas volleyball program, Pulliza guided the youthful 2010 Razorbacks to a fourth-place finish in the Western Division and a seventh-place overall conference finish. All six conference teams ahead of Arkansas advanced to the NCAA Tournament. With a roster that featured no seniors in 2010, Pulliza saw two of his underclassmen standouts recognized by the SEC coaches at the end of the season. 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 awards and one Defensive Player of the Week selection. Freshman Brooke Fournier was also selected to the USA Junior A2 National Team that competed in Europe during the summer of 2011. 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 seventh-best figure in program history. A week later, Razorbacks hit .419 against Akron for the 10th-best effort for any Arkansas team. 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 AllFreshman 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 A2 National Team that traveled to Europe during the summer of 2009. In addition to his success at the collegiate level, Pulliza has also gained international experience with the Puerto Rico and USA National Team programs. In 2000 and 2001, he was an assistant with the USA Youth National Team, with the 2000 team earning a silver medal at the NORCCA Zonal Championship. Pulliza went on to serve as an assistant coach with the USA National A2 team in the summer of 2003. Most recently, Pulliza continued his international outreach in July 2012 where he served as the head coach for the USA/BIP Development Team at the 2nd Annual China-USA Challenge. During the tour, Pulliza and his team, which included Norton, competed against the

2012 PREVIEW
When the University of Arkansas volleyball team takes to the Barnhill Arena floor Aug. 24 for its season opener against UT-Martin, it will be under the direction of fifth-year head coach Robert Pulliza. The Razorbacks will be looking to build on a 2011 season in which they registered an 18-13 overall record and posted 10 wins in Southeastern Conference play. Both win totals were highs for the program under Pulliza. Two years removed from having no seniors on the roster, the 2012 Razorbacks will feature a senior class of six student-athletes, the largest senior group for Pulliza since taking the helm in Fayetteville in 2008. That class is made up of Roslandy Acosta, Amanda Anderson, Kasey Heckelman, Marci King, Jasmine Norton and Janeliss Torres-Lopez. Anderson, Norton and Torres-Lopez were part of Pulliza’s first recruiting class at Arkansas while Acosta, Heckelman and King joined the team last season as transfers. “We’re going to have a big senior class with a lot of experience,” Pulliza said. “I think it’s also a class that is very hungry, especially after last year when we were so close. They want to be that group that can say ‘we got it done on the tail end and got us back among the nation’s elite.’ “This is the senior class that helped us build this environment and put us in the position we’re in where we can talk about being in the NCAA Tournament, winning more
50
and breaking records. I think they’re looking forward to it and embracing that role. It’s certainly a big year for us.” Overall, the Razorbacks welcome back 10 letterwinners—including five starters and staring libero—from last year’s team. Including the seniors, Arkansas returns juniors Hayley Koop, Clarissa Pavey and Raymariely Santos; and sophomore Christa Alvarez. Arkansas returns 75 percent of its offense, in regards to its kill total from 2011. Norton, a preseason AllSEC selection and active kill leader
in the SEC, is the team’s top returning attacker. Last season, the Razorbacks posted a .235 hitting percentage under the floor command of Santos. That hitting percentage is the seventh-best offensive figure in program history. Santos—1,119 assists in 2011—was the first Razorback setter with 1,000 assists in a single season since 2003; All-American Roberta Tarnauskaite was the last to accomplish the feat. Defensively, the team brings back 69 percent of its dig total from a season ago and 83 percent of its total

2012 PREVIEW
blocks. Heckelman led the team last year and was fourth in the SEC with 1.03 blocks per set. Collectively, Arkansas ranked second in the conference with 2.42 blocks per set. Both digs and blocks should be boosted by the newcomers, a group of three junior transfers and five freshmen. “We have some great physicality coming in with the freshman class along with some ball-handling help that will help us on the defensive end, and then we have some transfers that will make a difference on the defensive side of the game, as well. “Transfers are more like veterans but they are still getting used to the system and getting organized. Freshmen are freshmen. They will impact us with their physicality at times but they need the veterans to lead them and to show them what needs to happen day in and day out.” Arkansas’ transfer group consists of Avery Lewis (Conroe College), Emily Helm (University of Arizona) and Ashely Vazquez (Long Beach State). Both Helm and Vazquez bring postseason experience to Fayetteville, having made appearances in the NCAA Tournament with their previous teams. In May 2012, the Razorbacks’ incoming class of freshmen was named the No. 26 group in the country by PrepVolleyball.com, the highest such ranking in program history. That class includes Monica Bollinger, Liz Fortado, Ana Sofia Jusino, Summer Morgan and Adrien Wohlschlaeger. Bollinger, a 5-9 defensive specialist from St. Louis, Mo., was a fourtime all-conference performer for Rockwood Summit High School and helped High Performance club to a fifth-place finish at the 2011 AAU Girls Junior National Championships. Fortado, a 6-2 opposite from Flower Mound, Texas, ranked No. 75 on the 2012 Senior Aces List by PrepVolleyball and was a 2011-12 Under Armour Honorable Mention All-American for the AVCA. She was also named to the 18 Open Division All-Tournament Team for her performance at the USAV Girls’ Junior National Championships as a member of the TAV Black 18 club. Jusino, a 6-2 middle blocker from

Orlando, Fla., was the No. 79 player in the 2012 Senior Aces class and has international experience as a past member of the Puerto Rico Youth and Junior National Teams. Morgan, a 6-1 middle blocker from Springdale, Ark., was a PrepVolleyball Special Mention All-American, received Senior Ace recognition and was an all-state performer for Har-Ber High School. Wohlschlaeger is a 6-0 setter from Conroe, Texas. She was a member of the 2011 USA Girls’ Youth A2 Program and helped guide Conroe High School, where she was a three-year starter, to the state 5A playoffs during her senior season. Breaking the roster down by position, Arkansas will have Acosta, Fortado, Koop and Norton as its pin attackers; Anderson, Heckelman, Jusino, King, Morgan and TorresLopez in the middle; Santos, Vazquez and Wohlschlaeger at the setter position; and Alvarez, Bollinger, Helm, Lewis and Pavey playing defense behind the block. “You have to be able to bring in those athletes that can compete at this level,” Pulliza said of his roster. “Coaching is important to some extent but you have to have those play-
ers that are physically talented and committed to doing things the right way. It’s starting to show through with some of the things happening with our program but we know we still have work to do.” Having finished the 2011 season second in the SEC Western Division and fifth overall in the conference, the Razorbacks were picked to finish third in the division this season. Arkansas received 27 points in the Western Division predictions, positioned behind LSU and SEC-newcomer Texas A&M, respectively. The top three teams in the division were separated by just seven points in the poll. The Razorbacks have exceeded those predictions the past two seasons and the team is poised to continue that trend. With a win total that has increased in the previous three seasons and with a roster full of talent and experience, Pulliza’s plan for this year’s team is clear. “Our big thing is to keep looking forward,” the head coach said. “Every day, we want to look forward to what’s next for us as a program and tackle it. The bottom line is we want to win an SEC championship and advance in the NCAA Tournament. We

have a lot of work ahead of us to get there but our goals are simple. Now, it’s up to us to make it happen. “We expect for the fans to see a very exciting, physical and hardworking team. That’s the culture we have created here, and that’s what we have instilled since being here: being blue collar, out-working our opponents and having pride in the way we play. That’s the effort we expect to see from them all season long.” Having been on the verge of a postseason bid a year ago, the players on the court echo their coach’s expectations. “Our goal is to win the SEC,” Anderson said. “I’m very confident in this team with all of the training we’ve done during the offseason. Another big goal of ours is to be an NCAA Tournament team. We don’t just want to make the tournament, we want to keep advancing.” Individually, the league’s head coaches selected Norton to the Preseason All-SEC Team for the third consecutive season. She begins her senior season in sixth place on the program’s career kills list, 245 kills shy of the No. 2 spot currently occupied by Denitza Koleva who totaled 1,595 kills during her collegiate career which spanned 2003-06.

“(Jasmine) goes into her senior year as a First Team All-SEC player (from 2011), and I think that’s every exciting for her,” Pulliza said. “A sign of a great player is not how you start but how you finish. You want to start well but it’s also about how you progress when you’re good and everyone is telling you that you’re good. Jasmine has taken that next step and it’s a true sign of things to come for her. She has certainly taken the steps toward being one of the best in the country.” In July, Pulliza and Norton shared the experience of traveling to China with the USA/BIP Development Team that played against the top club teams from Liaoning, Shanghai and Tianjin. The summer tour was part of the 2nd Annual China-USA Challenge. No stranger to international volleyball, Pulliza served as the head coach for the American team. “China was an unbelievable experience,” Pulliza said. “Anytime you can travel overseas to see what volleyball is like in the rest of the world, it’s a great opportunity to grow. Also, from a training standpoint, it’s good to see what the top clubs are doing over there. It’s definitely something to learn from and bring back to the States.” “The speed of the game in China was much faster (than what I’m used to),” Norton added about the experience. “But it was perfect for me to
be in that environment because once we get into the season, that experience will help me in all parts of my game.” The Razorbacks begin their season Aug. 24-25 with the Arkansas Invitational, the team’s first of two home tournaments during the year. The field for the season-opening event includes UT-Martin, Northwestern State and Kansas. Arkansas will play 18 home matches in 2012, including seven against teams that advanced to last year’s NCAA Tournament. Arkansas opens the always-tough SEC schedule Sept. 14 against Florida in Fayetteville. In addition to the Gators, the team’s home schedule against conference opponents includes a Sept. 28 match against Auburn, Sept. 30 against LSU, Oct. 12 against Texas A&M, Oct. 14 against Tennessee, Oct. 26 against Alabama, Oct. 28 against Missouri, Nov. 11 against Kentucky, Nov. 16 against Georgia and Nov. 18 against Ole Miss. The Razorbacks will make three television appearances during the regular season. As part of the SEC package, the team will host Kentucky for a Nov. 11 broadcast on SportSouth (SPSO) and travel to Baton Rouge, La., to play LSU on Nov. 21 in front of an ESPNU audience. Arkansas’ match against LSU at Barnhill Arena in September will also be televised in a Cox Sports (CST) broadcast.

2011 SEASON REVIEW
The University of Arkansas volleyball team continued its push toward joining the nation’s elite programs with a 2011 campaign that featured team and individual growth. Overall, the Razorbacks experienced their highest win total in six years. The 2011 season marked the fourth under head coach Robert Pulliza. “We had a good year with an 18-13 record in the SEC, one of the toughest conferences in the country, and against a tough schedule,” Pulliza said. “I’m proud of our kids. But it definitely feels a bit incomplete. Unfortunately, we couldn’t play ourselves in (to the NCAA Championship) but we still had a good year. We won more and I’m excited about where the program is headed because the best is still to come.” Arkansas’ 18 overall wins and 10 conference wins are program highs under Pulliza. The team finished second in the SEC Western Division, its highest conference finish since tying for the division title in 2005. The Razorbacks’ 18 wins are the most for the team since the 2005 season, while the 10 SEC wins are the most since the conference moved to its current double round-robin format. The team’s success came against a tough schedule that featured six opponents that advanced to the 2011 NCAA Championship. Along with SEC foes Florida, Kentucky and Tennessee, the field of 64 in the national tournament includes non-conference opponents Colorado State, Middle Tennessee and Oklahoma. Nine of the Razorbacks’ 13 losses on the season came against that group. “To give you an idea of the state of the team, when we took over the program our RPI was 140,” Pulliza said. “This year, we got as high as 56. As of last week before playing LSU, we were 63rd which means we were one of the best 64 teams in the country. So, we have become one of the best teams in the country once again and we’ve made a big 54
progression from 140 to 56. That’s significant. That said, we can still be in a better place.” During the team’s non-conference schedule, Arkansas won a pair of tournaments with victories at the Deacon Invitational in Winston-Salem, N.C., and the West Point Challenge in New York. The Razorbacks carried an non-conference record of 8-3, the sixth-best by an Arkansas team heading into SEC play. Along the way, the Razorbacks collected a handful of all-tournament accolades with Roslandy Acosta (Arkansas Invitational), Kasey Heckelman (Arkansas Invitational), Jasmine Norton (West Point Challenge), Raymariely Santos (Arkansas Invitational, Deacon Invitational), Kelli Stipanovich (Deacon Invitational, West Point Challenge) and Janeliss Torres-Lopez (West Point Challenge) all being recognized for their respective performances. The awards kept coming during the SEC schedule. Stipanovich earned SEC Defensive Player of the Week honors following a standout effort at Florida and South Carolina. The following week, Norton won her first of two SEC Player of the Week awards; she earned her second selection after a road trip to Georgia and Auburn. Christa Alvarez, the only true freshman staring libero in the conference, was named the SEC Defensive Player of the Week after a home sweep of Ole Miss and Alabama. With their seasons done, Norton and Stipanovich were honored by the conference coaches when they were named to the All-SEC Team. Norton earned All-SEC First Team honors while Stipanovich was tabbed an All-SEC Second Team performer. Norton became the sixth player in program history to earn three career All-SEC honors. It was the first All-SEC recognition for Stipanovich.

“I’m very excited for Jasmine and Kelli,” Pulliza said. “I’m excited the coaches believe they’ve had seasons worthy of the awards. Obviously, we’re a little biased as their coaches but when our peers see that they’re exceptional student-athletes, it’s a good thing. They should be proud of the seasons they’ve had and we’re proud of them.” The Razorbacks’ outside duo reached a career milestone in 2011 when they became the 14th and 15th players in program history to eclipse the 1,000-kill mark. At season’s end, Norton sits in the No. 6 spot on that list with 1,350 career kills with her senior season ahead of her. Stipanovich, who led the team with 12 double-doubles, closes out her career in 12th place on the list with 1,243 career kills. Sophomore setter Raymariely Santos grabbed the reins of the Razorback offense and directed the team to the seventh-best est season hitting percentage in school history. During the year, Santos set Arkansas to a pair of all-time marks with a .430 hitting percentage against South Carolina, tied for the fifth highest in program history, and nd a .421 figure against McNeese State, the ninth-best efficiency for any Arkansas team. Personally, Santos established a career high when she dished out 61 assists at Georgia. That total is tied for the fourth-bestt performance by an SEC setter in 2011. “The program is in a very good place right now,” Pulliza said. “I think the best is yet to come and that’s the exciting part. As good as it is, the best is yet to come. As disappointing as it is that we’re not playing in December, it’s as exciting to know that the best is still ahead of us. We’re in an exciting place as a team but we want to be playing into December so the best is still to come for us.” With the graduation of Stipanovich and Adriana Vazquez, uez, Arkansas is set to return 10 of 15 players from the 2011 roster including five starters and its libero. Among that group will be the Razorbacks’ rbacks’ senior class of Acosta, Heckelman, Norton, Torres-Lopez, Amanda anda Anderson and Marci King. In a show of its consistency and growing ng experience, Arkansas used the same starting lineup for the final 14 matches of the season. “We were able to be consistent during the tail-end of our season because players understood and bought into their roles,” Pulliza said. “That being said, consistency is a good thing if we handle it the right
way. It’s good to have a big group of returners if we don’t get too comfortable. The benefit of this group is that they’re here, understand each other and we could coach them throughout the entire spring. If we can take advantage of that, we can be a very powerful team with the additions we have coming in.” Joining the Razorbacks for the 2012 season will be incoming freshmen Monica Bollinger (St. Louis, Mo./DS), Liz Fortado (Flower Mound, Texas/OPP), Ana Jusino (Orlando, Fla./MB) and Summer Morgan (Springdale, Ark./MB). The group of four marks the fourth recruiting class for Pulliza at Arkansas. Fortado, Jusino and Morgan were recognized as part of PrepVolleyball.com’s Senior Aces list. Fortado was also named a 2011-12 Under Armour Honorable Mention High School All-American. With the addition of Adrien Wohlschlaeger (Conroe, Texas/S), Arkansas’ incoming class was ranked No. 26 by PrepVolleyball.com, the highest such ranking in program history. The Razorbacks also added junior transfers Emily Helm, Avery Lewis and Ashley Vazquez for the 2012 season. It was another strong showing for the Razorback fans at Barnhill Arena as they helped set the average attendance record for a third straight season. Four of the top-10 home attendance figures happened during the 2011 season, including a record 1,407 fans at the season opener against No. 15 Colorado State. The other three top-10 crowds came against No. 19 Florida (1,255 fans), Mississippi State (1,184) and LSU (1,096). Eight of the top-10 home attendance figures in program history have been set over the past two seasons. “One of the reasons we were so successful this year was our fans and how they supported us,” Pulliza said. “When Barnhill Arena is rocking, it becomes a very special place for us to play and a very difficult place for our opponent. Our Hog Wild band and Razorback Nation make a big difference for us in that gym every match. It’s a great environment.” Arkansas and its fans received increased exposure by way of three television matches in 2011, all of which originated from Barnhill Arena. The Razorbacks played in front of a national audience with their Oct. 26 straight-set victory over LSU in a match televised by ESPNU. In its other television appearances, the team hosted Tennessee on SportSouth and Florida on CSS/CST.
In addition to eight newcomers, the Razorbacks’ roster will feature 10 letterwinners, including five starters and libero from the 2011 season.

FAYETTEVILLE – The University of Arkansas volleyball team dropped its season opener in three sets, 25-22, 25-16, 25-21 to No. 15 Colorado State Friday night at Barnhill Arena in front of a record crowd. Kelli Stipanovich led the Razorbacks’ offense with a team-high eight kills while Jasmine Norton paced the team with 11 digs. The 2011 season opener played out in front of a program-record 1,407 fans. The previous high for Barnhill Arena of 1,362 was set Nov. 22, 1998, against No. 5 Florida. With the crowd Friday night, the Razorbacks have now seen three of the top five attendance figures over the past two seasons. After trailing by five points early on in set one, Arkansas pulled to within three after a service ace by Amanda Anderson and forced a timeout by the visitors. Out of the timeout, a block by Megan Plourde and Deedrea Foss pushed Colorado State’s lead back to five. The Razorbacks responded with five unanswered points, capped by a kill from Kasey Heckelman, to level the score at 16. From that point, the score was tied three times but Arkansas never pulled ahead on the scoreboard. With the score tied 20-20, Colorado State won four of the next five points to arrive at set point after a kill by Izzy Gaulia. The home Hogs saved the first set point after a service error by its opponent but the visiting Rams closed out the opener, 25-22, with a kill by Katelyn Steffan. Colorado State carried its momentum into the second set, winning four of the first points of the game. Stipanovich cut Arkansas’ deficit to one after a kill but the Rams won the three points to force a timeout out of Pulliza. Behind a .360 hitting percentage in the set, Colorado State pushed its lead into double figures and went on to win the game, 25-16. Arkansas took its first lead of the match by winning the first three points of the third set. The quick start came by way of kills from Roslandy Acosta and Norton, and a tandem block by Acosta and Janeliss Torres-Lopez. Colorado State rallied back to knot the score at 4-all. The Razorbacks fell behind by four after an attack error by Stipanovich but Arkansas pulled back even, 12-12, after consecutive CSU miscues. The third set was tied six times. The final tie came at 16-all but the visitors won the next three points to take control of the set and match for the last time. The Razorbacks made a final push to close to within one point, 18-19. Colorado State responded, however to arrive at match point, 24-19. Back-to-back kills by Stipanovich saved the first two but Steffan found the floor to end the set, 25-21, and give the Rams’ a seasonopening victory.

FAYETTEVILLE – Behind the eighth-best hitting performance in program history, the University of Arkansas volleyball team swept McNeese State (25-19, 25-19, 25-19) Saturday afternoon at Barnhill Arena. The Razorbacks posted a hitting percentage of .421 in the match and had six players with at least six kills. Roslandy Acosta and Jasmine Norton led the way with 11 and 10 kills respectively. In the first set, six different Razorbacks had at least two kills as setter Raymariely Santos directed the Arkansas offense to a .469 hitting percentage. After an even start between the two sides, the home team used a four-point spurt to take a 13-8 lead on a kill by Norton. Arkansas maintained a lead of at least three the rest of the set. Another fourpoint scoring run put the Razorbacks up by seven, 23-16, their largest lead of the game. A successful attack by Santos brought Arkansas to set point and Janeliss Torres-Lopez closed out the opener, 25-19, with a kill of her own. Offensively, Acosta led the way with four kills in the first set. Game two played out in similar fashion with back-and-forth action during the early stages of play. With the score tied at 11, the Razorbacks scored six unanswered points to seize the momentum. Later in the set, Kelli Stipanovich found the floor to give Arkansas a 20-16 lead and force a McNeese timeout. Acosta had two of the final three points in the set, including a kill on the team’s second point. With the win in game two, 25-19, the home team went into the locker room with a two-set lead. The Razorbacks’ hot hitting continued after the break but the visitors from McNeese started strong to win four of the first five points in game three. Arkansas fell behind by as much as five but back-to-back error by its opponent closed that gap to two and forced a timeout by McNeese. Consecutive tandem blocks by Santos and Kasey Heckelman evened the score at 16-all. From that point, Arkansas won seven of the next nine points to take a 23-18 lead. Acosta brought the Razorbacks to match point with her 11th kill of the day. On the next point, Arkansas secured its first win of the year after an attack error by McNeese. From her setter position, Santos finished the match with 38 assists, six kills and six digs. Arkansas’ match against McNeese State was the team’s first of the day. The Razorbacks close out the season-opening Arkansas Invitational with a 7 p.m. match against Middle Tennessee.

FAYETTEVILLE – The University of Arkansas volleyball returned to the floor for their second match of the day and knocked off Middle Tennessee in three sets (25-22, 2520, 25-21) to finish the season-opening weekend with a 2-1 record. Jasmine Norton led the team with 10 kills while three other Razorbacks—Kasey Heckelman, Kelli Stipanovich and Roslandy Acosta—each tallied seven kills. For their weekend performances, Acosta, Heckelman and Raymariely Santos were named to the Arkansas Invitational All-Tournament Team. Freshman libero Christa Alvarez posted the first double-digit dig effort of her young career with a match-high 10 digs. The Razorbacks forced the first timeout of the match after a kill by Jasmine Norton and a tandem block by Kelli Stipanovich and Janeliss Torres-Lopez put the home team ahead, 10-8. Out of the timeout, Middle Tennessee went on a scoring run to grab a 13-12 lead. Arkansas responded to win the next five points, aided by three errors from the Blue Raiders. A kill by Alyssa Wistrick brought the visitors to within two and forced a timeout from Pulliza with his team still leading, 19-17. Kills by Stipanovich and Kasey Heckelman pushed the Razorback lead to three but consecutive attack errors brought Middle Tennessee back to within one, 23-22. Arkansas stopped the momentum and won the next two points to close out the opener, 25-22. In game two, the team battled to an early 6-6 tally but Arkansas scored the next six points to take control of play. During the stretch, the Razorbacks benefitted from four MTSU attack errors. A service ace by Jasmine Norton put Arkansas ahead, 16-8, and the home lead reached nine on the next play after another error by the Blue Raiders. After seeing their lead trimmed to two late, the Razorbacks recovered to win the final two points of the set, including a kill by Stipanovich on set point. With freshman libero Christa Alvarez at the service line, Arkansas reeled off five points in a row to go ahead 13-8 in the third. Alvarez capped her efforts at the line with two aces. Heckelman put the ball down out of the middle to push the Razorbacks’ lead to seven, their largest of game. Arkansas maintained a lead of at least three the remainder of the match. The team arrived at its first match point, 24-19, after a kill by Norton, her final putaway of the night. Middle Tennessee saved two match points but on the third attempt to close out the match, Stipanovich came out of the back row for the final kill of the match to send the Razorbacks to their second win of the season.

FAYETTEVILLE – Kelli Stipanovich posted a career performance with 30 kills, 14 digs and seven blocks but the University of Arkansas volleyball team dropped a five-set decision to Oral Roberts Tuesday night at Barnhill Arena. The 30-kill effort by Stipanovich is the first for an Arkansas player since Jessica Dorrell had 30 kills for the Razorbacks in 2007. Arkansas (2-2) won three of the first four points in the race to 15 in game five, but Oral Roberts (1-3) returned the favor and evened the tally at four. With the score tied, 7-7, the Golden Eagles pushed ahead on the scoreboard and built a four-point lead after a tandem block by Sheina Fernandes and Jessica Pancratz. The Razorbacks put up a block of their own the next point to cut their deficit to three. Oral Roberts, once trailing two sets to one, won the final two points of the match to complete its comeback. The teams traded points until the visitors went ahead by three. The Razorbacks pulled to within one on two separate occasions late in the set but Oral Roberts reached set point on a kill by Joana Gruber and took the opener, 25-22, on the next point after a dump kill by the ORU setter. In game two, the score was even after 10 points but Arkansas put together a 5-1 spurt to go ahead for good in the set. The Razorbacks doubled up their opponent, 14-7, on a kill by Roslandy Acosta. The home team went ahead by 11, its largest lead of the set, after a kill by Norton. Oral Roberts got no closer than seven the rest of the set. Stipanovich brought her team to set point with a kill and, three points later, closed out the set, 25-16, with another putaway. The score was tied six times at the end of the set, with the teams going into extra points to decide the third. Down the final stretch of points, Arkansas saved two set points and Oral Roberts saved one. The Razorbacks rode the arms of their two outsides as Stipanovich and Norton combined for five of the team’s final six points. Norton found the floor on the final two points to end the set, 29-27. The fourth set played out like the games before with early point-for-point action, however it was Oral Roberts that surged ahead to take control. The Golden Eagles took a 23-15 lead after consecutive miscues by the Arkansas offense. With her team trailing by six, Norton stepped to the service line and won five points in a row to bring the Razorbacks to within two but ORU withstood the charge. On their third set point, the visitors secured the game, 25-23, to send the match to a fifth set.

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. – The University of Arkansas volleyball team picked up a pair of victories Friday at the Deacon Invitational in Winston-Salem, N.C. The Razorbacks came away with wins over Charleston Southern and host Wake Forest on day one of the tournament. With Friday’s results, Arkansas improves to 4-2 through the six matches of the season. Arkansas and Wake Forest closed out day one of the Deacon Invitational in the home team’s first match of the year. The Razorbacks won the match in straight sets (25-18, 25-22, 25-19). Kelli Stipanovich had her second double-double of the season with 15 kills and 10 digs, while libero Christa Alvarez paced the defense with 12 digs. In the first set, the action played out evenly during the early stages but the Razorbacks went ahead, 11-7, after two attack errors by Wake Forest. The Demon Deacons pulled to within one on two separate occasions but more errors cost them the opportunity to pull even or go ahead. Leading by three late in the set, Arkansas won the final four points of the set to win the opener, 25-18. Wake Forest responded to start game two with a 4-1 lead. The Razorbacks never trailed by more than three as they started to chip away at the deficit. A service ace by Amanda Anderson pulled Arkansas even at 11-all. Once again, the home team fought back and re-established a lead and was up two, 19-17, when Pulliza used a timeout. The score was tied, 22-22, when the Razorback put together another set-clinching run of points. Jasmine Norton found the floor down the line to give her team the set, 25-22. Out of the 10-minute intermission, the Deacon Demons went out to another 4-1 lead in game three. The score was tied one last time at 10 before Arkansas took the lead for good. Back-to-back kills from Stipanovich forced a timeout by Wake Forest. The Razorbacks maintained a lead of at least three points. Ahead by four, 18-14, Arkansas added a four-point run to double its advantage. Anderson put down a set from Raymariely Santos to bring the team to match point. A Wake Forest service error ended the match in the Razorbacks’ favor. In their first match of the day, the Razorbacks swept Charleston Southern (2518, 25-11, 25-10). Arkansas had three players—Anderson, Stipanovich and Roslandy Acosta—each tally eight kills and Santos directed the offense to a .389 hitting percentage, the second-highest team figure of the still-young season for the Razorbacks. Arkansas turned an early three-point lead into a six-point advantage, 12-6, on a kill by Charmaine Whitmore in the first set. On consecutive points, Whitmore figured in on a Razorback block to push her team’s lead to 10, 22-12. An attack error by CSU’s Amy Nokes gave Arkansas a handful of set points. On the fifth try, Norton found the floor to close out the set, 25-18. Both Norton and Whitmore finished the match with four kills. Game two was a story of runs for the Razorbacks who used strong serving and a size advantage at the net to take control of play for the remainder of the match. Arkansas’ lead ballooned to 12 after an Anderson kill. The team maintained its doubledigit edge and on its first set point, clinched the game on a Charleston Southern attack error. The third set was over early thanks to an 11-0 run with Anderson at the service line. At one point during the streak, she had three straight service aces. The Buccaneers got no closer than 11 points the rest of the match. Hayley Koop came in late off the bench and continued the hot hitting. She had three kills in the final five points, including the match-winning putaway.
From her setter position, Santos guided Arkansas to a tournament title at Wake Forest.

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. – Jasmine Norton became the 14th player in program history to total 1,000 career kills Saturday as the University of Arkansas volleyball team beat Georgetown in five sets (20-25, 25-16, 18-25, 25-17, 15-5) at the Deacon Invitational. Norton led the Razorbacks with 19 kills and a .304 hitting percentage. Amanda Anderson added 11 kills and libero Christa Alvarez paced the defense with 12 digs. In the decisive fifth set, Norton got the Razorbacks on the scoreboard with backto-back kills. With libero Christa Alvarez at the service line, Arkansas forged ahead with the help of its defense at the net. Kelli Stipanovich picked up a solo stuff and a tandem block by Anderson and Roslandy Acosta gave the Razorbacks a 6-3 lead. The teams switched side with Arkansas leading, 8-4. Arkansas used a seven-point surge to grab the momentum and position itself to complete the comeback. Raymariely Santos went to Norton on the final two plays of the match and the Razorback attacker responded with consecutive kills to seal the victory and give Arkansas its third win of the weekend. Santos dished out 39 assists in the match, leading the club to a .316 hitting percentage. Through the first half of play in the opening set, the teams traded points with neither side gaining a lead of more than two points. However, with the score tied at 15, Georgetown scored four unanswered points to take control of set one. The Razorbacks got as close as three on two occasions but Georgetown closed out the game, 25-20, on its second set point with a kill by Dani White. A tandem block by Acosta and Charmaine Whitmore gave the Razorbacks an 11point lead at 22-11. Georgetown pulled to within eight but on its first set point, Arkansas sealed the game win, 25-16, on a dump kill by Santos. Norton paced the offense with six kills in the set, including the milestone putaway. The third set played out in a similar pattern as the previous games. Back-and-forth play characterized the first 20 points but Georgetown turned a one-point lead into a five-point advantage, 14-9, to take control. The Razorbacks stopped the run of points with a kill by Anderson but never got closer than four the rest of the way. The Hoyas’ built their lead to eight and eventually took the set, 25-18. Arkansas responded in the fourth set to force the decisive fifth. Leading 12-10, the Razorbacks padded its lead by winning four of the next five points. Georgetown pulled to within two with Arkansas leading 18-16 but the Razorbacks ended the set with a 7-1 run. Anderson had an ace on set point to push her team to the game win, 25-17.

NORMAN, Okla. – The University of Arkansas volleyball team had three players with double-digit kills but dropped a four-set decision (16-25, 25-18, 25-23, 25-20) to No. 18 Oklahoma Tuesday evening at McCasland Fieldhouse in Norman, Okla. Jasmine Norton led the way with a match-high 17 kills and Kelli Stipanovich posted a double-double effort with 11 kills and 10 digs. Roslandy Acosta added 10 kills and freshman libero Christa Alvarez paced the defense with 13 digs. In the opening set, the teams traded points to a 7-7 tie but the Razorbacks scored the next four points to take control of play. Later in the set, Arkansas (5-3) used a five-point spurt to extend its lead to eight, 19-11. During that stretch of points, the Razorbacks benefitted from three OU attack errors. The lead reached double figures, 22-12, after another hitting miscue by the Sooners. Acosta closed out the opener, 2516, on the team’s fourth set point with a shot down the line. Arkansas’ offense posted a .357 hitting percentage in set one and six different players had at least two kills. Conversely, the Razorback held Oklahoma (7-1) to a -.036 hitting percentage in the first set. The Sooners responded quickly to start the second game. An early 7-1 run put Oklahoma in the driver’s seat through the middle phases of the set. The home team padded its lead and went ahead by 10 on three separate occasions, the last time coming at 21-11. With its back against the wall, Arkansas won the next seven points to pull to within three. However, the Sooners won the final four points to win the set, 25-18. Game three was a near replica of the second. Arkansas gave the Sooners four of their first five points on errors, forcing head coach Robert Pulliza into an early timeout. Oklahoma’s lead ballooned to nine, 21-12, before the Razorbacks began its comeback. Arkansas reeled off eight points in a row to pull to within one. Norton tallied five kills during the rally and defensive substitute Marci King got in on back-to-back blocks to get the team back into the set. The Sooner regained their form and on its second set point, OU won the game, 25-23, with a kill by Suzy Boulavsky. The fourth set was the most evenly played on the scoreboard with neither team building a lead of more than three points until late. The Razorbacks led, 10-7, after an ace by Raymariely Santos, but from that point, the set was tied seven times until the score was tied at 17-all. Oklahoma won eight of the final 11 points of the match to win the set, 25-20.

WEST POINT, N.Y. – Kelli Stipanovich reached 1,000 career kills Friday morning as the University of Arkansas volleyball team beat Dartmouth in four sets (25-9, 25-15, 22-25, 27-25) in the opening match of the West Point Challenge. Stipanovich, Jasmine Norton and Raymariely Santos each posted double-double performances and libero Christa Alvarez tallied a season-high 20 digs. With her 13th kill of the match, a tip shot out of the back row in the fourth set, Stipanovich became the 15th player in program history to reach the career milestone. She is the second Razorback to reach 1,000 career kills this season, joining Norton who eclipsed the mark last weekend at the Deacon Invitational. It marks the fourth time Arkansas teammates have reached 1,000 career kills in the same season. Stipanovich finished the match with 15 kills and a career-best 16 digs for her fourth double-double of the season. Norton had a match-high 17 kills and added 10 digs for her first double-double effort of the year. In the fourth set, Norton had 11 kills and no attack errors. At the setter position, Santos dished out 45 assists and had a season-high 15 digs for her first double-double performance of the season. She guided the Razorback offense to a .293 hitting percentage. Janeliss Torres-Lopez added 10 kills. The Razorbacks won the first 11 points of the match on their way to their most lopsided set win since the 2009 season. Arkansas held Dartmouth to a negative hitting figure through the first two sets of the match and eased to a 2-0 lead in the match. In the third set, Dartmouth went ahead early and led by four but the middle stages of the set went back and forth with the teams trading points. Arkansas pulled even at 19-19 after back-to-back tandem blocks. With the score tied at 22, the Big Green rattled off the final three points of the set—two by way of Arkansas errors—to force game four. After losing the first point of the fourth set, Arkansas went ahead and held the lead for the remainder of the match. The Razorbacks arrived at match point, 24-21, after a kill by Stipanovich but Dartmouth stayed alive with three straight kills by Madeline Baird to tie the score. On its fifth match point, however, Arkansas secured the win with a kill by Norton. She had the team’s final three points.

WEST POINT, N.Y. – The University of Arkansas volleyball team knocked off Army in straight sets (26-24, 25-15, 25-23) Friday evening to close competition on day one of the West Point Challenge at the Gillis Field House in New York. Jasmine Norton and Kelli Stipanovich each tallied a match-high 11 kills and Raymariely Santos dished out 34 assists to pace the Razorback offense. Janeliss Torres-Lopez hit .438 with nine kills in the middle and Roslandy Acosta added six kills. Defensively, Norton had five total blocks—three solo blocks—and libero Christa Alvarez and Brooke Fournier had 12 and 10 digs, respectively. Through the early stages of the opening set, the teams traded points but the home team maintained a slight advantage on the scoreboard. Army (5-3) built a four-point lead, 17-13, after a kill by Megan Wilton. The Razorbacks responded by winning six of the next eight points and Stipanovich and Torres-Lopez combined for a block to even the score. After a slow start to the match, Norton had the team’s final three kills. A tandem block by Torres-Lopez and Acosta closed out the set, 26-24, in Arkansas’ favor. The Razorbacks jumped out to an early 4-1 lead in the second set. After dropping the first point of the game, Arkansas (7-3) never trailed. With Amanda Anderson at the service line, Arkansas turned a one-point lead into a seven-point advantage. During the run of points, Norton and Torres-Lopez both tallied two kills. Arkansas started to pull away and extended its lead to nine, 24-15, on a third solo block of the set for Norton. On the team’s first set point, Torres-Lopez came out of the middle with a kill to give Arkansas the 2-0 match lead. Down to its final set, Army charged out to a 5-1 lead in the third game. The Black Knights maintained their advantage but Arkansas began chipping away until the score was tied 13-all after a kill by Stipanovich. Santos gave her team its first lead of the set, 15-14, with a kill. Norton found the floor from the outside to give the Razorbacks a three-point lead and force an Army timeout. Arkansas had three match points after another kill by Stipanovich. The Black Knights saved the first two but Stipanovich secured the win with the final kill of the match. There is no tournament play Saturday but the Razorbacks return to action the next day to face NJIT. First serve of Arkansas’ weekend finale is scheduled for 9 a.m. (CT) Sunday at Gillis Field House. On their off day at the West Point Challenge, the Razorbacks will attend the Army-San Diego State football game.

WEST POINT, N.Y. – The University of Arkansas volleyball team beat the New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) Sunday morning in three sets (25-16, 25-14, 25-12) to wrap up an undefeated weekend and win the West Point Challenge at the Gillis Field House in New York. Kelli Stipanovich finished the day with a match-high 12 kills and completed a double-double performance with 15 digs. Roslandy Acosta and Jasmine Norton added nine and seven kills, respectively. Arkansas (8-3) fell behind early with NJIT (2-6) taking an 11-7 lead after a kill by Renata Pandolfo. The Razorbacks responded with a 9-1 run to take the lead and grab control of the first set. An attack error by the Highlanders gave Arkansas the 16-12 lead and forced an NJIT timeout. The Razorbacks used a balanced offensive attack to extend their lead. Norton gave the team set point and, on the next play, she teamed with Marci King for a tandem block to close out the set, 25-16. Trailing by two early in game two, the Razorbacks reeled off eight points in a row with the help of three service aces by Christa Alvarez and two blocks at the net to take a 9-3 lead. Later in the set, Norton tallied three consecutive kills to build Arkansas’ lead to eight. An NJIT hitting error gave the Razorbacks’ a 10-point lead, 22-12. On set point, Stipanovich found the floor to clinch the set for Arkansas, 25-14.

After a timeout, the Razorbacks began to chip away at their deficit and with a kill on an overpassed ball by Charmaine Whitmore, Arkansas (13-8, 5-5 SEC) was back to within one. With her team down three, Alvarez stepped to the service line and won four points in a row, including an ace. The run of points gave the Razorback their first lead of the match.

In the opening stages of the second set, neither team could distance from the other and battled to a 10-10 tie. The Razorbacks won the next four points behind two kills each from Acosta and Anderson. The home team held on to its lead until Ole Miss strung together five points in a row to take a 21-19 lead.

After a service error from Kasey Heckelman, Ole Miss had another set point but Norton kept the Razorbacks alive with another kill. Stipanovich gave Arkansas set point with a solo block and an attack error by Wells on the ensuing play gave the Razorbacks the set, 28-26. Arkansas closed out the match with another come-from-behind effort in the third set. With the score tied at 13-13, the Rebels put together a four-point run to take control of play. From that point, the teams played even until a kill by Regina Thomas gave Ole Miss a 21-18 lead. The Razorbacks responded with a 4-0 push of their own and took a 22-21 lead, capped by a service ace from Norton. The visitors tied the score on the next play with a kill by Wells but Heckelman brought Arkansas to match point with a kill on an overpassed ball.

FAYETTEVILLE – Three Razorbacks tallied double-digits kills as the University of Arkansas volleyball team knocked Alabama in straight sets (25-17, 25-19, 25-19) Sunday afternoon at Barnhill Arena. Jasmine Norton paced the team with a match-high 11 kills while Amanda Anderson and Kelli Stipanovich each totaled 10 kills. Defensively, Anderson had a career-high eight total blocks and libero Christa Alvarez registered a match-best 17 digs. Stipanovich collected her team-leading 10th double-double performance, adding 12 digs to her kill total. The Razorback offense, directed by 33 assists from Raymariely Santos, posted a .313 hitting percentage. Sunday’s match marked the fifth time Arkansas has hit .300 or higher in a match this season, and second time during SEC play. After an even start between the two teams, Arkansas (14-8, 6-5 SEC) opened a 13-9 advantage behind consecutive blocks from Stipanovich. She teamed with Anderson on the first and Kasey Heckelman on the second. Out of a timeout, Alabama (10-13, 3-9 SEC) won the next three points to pull to within one after a tandem block. However, the Razorbacks maintained their lead and pushed their advantage to 20-14 after back-to-back attack errors by the Crimson Tide. With consecutive kills by Anderson and Norton, Arkansas arrived at set point. On the team’s third chance to close out the opening game, Anderson pounded her third kill of the day to close out the set in favor of the Razorbacks, 25-17. The home team jumped out to the early 4-0 lead in the second set. The Razorbacks never trailed in the set, holding at least a two-point advantage throughout the game. Arkansas opened a 14-7 lead, its largest of the set, after a pair of tandem blocks involving Anderson. Later in the set, the Crimson Tide cut its deficit to two. But the Razorbacks responded to regain control of play and led 21-17 after kills from Norton and Santos. Arkansas won the last four points of the set to take a 2-0 match lead. Heckelman closed out the game with back-to-back service aces and the Razorbacks won the set, 25-19. The teams traded points to start the third game but the Razorbacks turned a one-point advantage into a 10-6 lead after a kill from Anderson. Another put away from the junior middle blocker pushed the Arkansas lead to five. Out of an Alabama timeout, Norton extended her team’s lead to seven, 20-13. Roslandy Acosta gave Arkansas match point with a kill. After Alabama saved one match point, Acosta found the floor for the final kill of the match.

FAYETTEVILLE – The University of Arkansas volleyball team swept LSU (25-20, 2529, 25-22) Wednesday night at Barnhill Arena. Jasmine Norton had a team-high 12 kills and Amanda Anderson had eight kills on a match-best .350 hitting percentage. Defensively, the Razorbacks held LSU to a .077 hitting percentage en route to the victory. Arkansas’ win snaps an 11-match losing streak to the Tigers and moves the Razorbacks into a tie for first place in the Southeastern Conference Western Division. In the opening set, the teams traded points early until LSU (14-8, 7-5 SEC) took a 10-7 lead after a kill by Desiree Elliott. Arkansas (15-8, 7-5 SEC) made push to tie the game at 13-all but the visitors went back ahead to maintain the momentum. A kill by the Tigers’ Helen Boyle put LSU ahead by two, 17-15, and forced a timeout from Pulliza. The Razorbacks made their move out of the timeout, winning nine of the next 11 points to take control of play. After struggling through the early stage of the match, Norton registered five kills down the stretch of set one. Acosta brought Arkansas to set point with a kill. On the team’s second opportunity to close out the set, Norton found the floor to clinch the game, 25-20. Using the momentum from its win in the opener, Arkansas went out to an 11-8 lead after an attack error from its opponent. At the media timeout, the Razorbacks led 15-13 after a kill from Norton. LSU made a run to go ahead, 18-17, after a kill from Michele Williams. Facing their first deficit since the opening points of the set, the home team reeled off five points in a row to take a 22-18 lead. During the stretch, Arkansas benefitted from three consecutive attack errors by Williams. The Tigers won the next point but the Razorbacks won the final three points of the set to go into the locker room with the two-set match lead. On set point, Acosta notched a kill to close out the game, 25-19. Arkansas won four of the first five points of the third set but the visitors fought back to tie the score and eventually take the lead. With the score tied at 11-all, the Tigers won four of five points and led 15-12 at the media timeout. However, the next six points ended in favor of the Razorbacks. During the run, Arkansas had consecutive tandem blocks from Acosta and Kasey Heckelman. Santos gave the Razorbacks a 22-18 advantage with a second-ball kill.

STARKVILLE, Miss. – The University of Arkansas volleyball team won its fourth match in a row with a three-set win over Mississippi State Friday evening at the NewellGrissom Building in Starkville, Miss. Jasmine Norton and Kelli Stipanovich led all hitters with 12 kills apiece and the Razorback defense held Mississippi State to a .043 hitting percentage in the Southeastern Conference Western Division matchup. Libero Christa Alvarez paced Arkansas’ defense with 13 digs while Kasey Heckelman and Roslandy Acosta each had four total blocks. In the first set, Mississippi State (10-12, 5-8 SEC) jumped out to a 6-2 lead after a kill by Caitlin Rance. The quick start by the home team forced a timeout from Pulliza. Arkansas (16-8, 8-5 SEC) worked itself back into the set behind a pair of kills down the line by Stipanovich and tied the score at 9-all. From that point, the score was tied on four more occasions before the Razorbacks surged ahead. A service ace by Norton gave Arkansas the 15-14 advantage, its first lead of the night. Stipanovich and Heckelman teamed up for a block of Rance and the Razorbacks went ahead, 20-16. Arkansas arrived at set point after a Mississippi State attack error. The Bulldogs won the next three points to stay alive but on the team’s fourth chance to close out the set, Norton found the floor to secure the opener, 25-23. Later in the second set, the Razorbacks used a quick surge to take a five-point advantage, 23-18. It was the team’s largest of the set. Heckelman put the ball down on a slide attack to bring Arkansas to set point. As they did in the first, the Bulldogs extended the set and saved two set points before Faith Steinwedell sent a service long to give Arkansas the game, 25-21. After winning the first two points of the set, the Razorbacks fell behind by two with the home team leading, 8-6. Arkansas recovered to win the next five points to regain the advantage on the scoreboard. The teams traded points through the middle stages of the match but, once again, with the score tied at 15-all, Arkansas made its final push to close out the Bulldogs. The Razorbacks used an 8-0 streak to take a 23-15 lead. The run of points included three kills from Norton and a pair of tandem blocks from Acosta and Heckelman. A kill by Rance ended the run but Raymariely Santos picked up a kill on a second-ball attack on the next play to give her team match point. An attack error by Mississippi State ended the match in favor of Arkansas.

ATHENS, Ga. – The University of Arkansas volleyball team dropped a five-set decision to Georgia (25-15, 23-25, 25-23, 21-25, 15-12) Friday evening at the Ramsey Center in Athens, Ga. The Razorbacks were paced by a season-high 27 kills from Jasmine Norton and 19 digs from libero Christa Alvarez. With the loss, Arkansas falls to 16-9 overall and 8-6 in Southeastern Conference play. In the decisive fifth set, Arkansas went out to an early 3-1 lead after the fourth service ace of the night from Norton. Like a majority of Friday’s match, the teams traded points and Georgia (10-15, 6-9 SEC) led, 8-7, when the teams switched sides. The Bulldogs extended their lead and used a six-point surge to take a 13-7 advantage. Arkansas broke the run with a kill by Norton and with Kasey Heckelman at the service line, the team got itself back into the set. The Razorbacks reeled off five points in a row to pull to within one. During the stretch, Norton tallied three kills and Heckelman came up with a service ace. However, the Bulldogs won the last two points of the night and closed out the match with a block. After dropping the opener, the Razorbacks evened the match with a win in set two. Georgia won three of the first four points of the game but the visitors recovered to pull even. Back-to-back kills from Stipanovich and Norton gave Arkansas a 13-10 lead, its largest advantage of the set. Later in the game, the Razorbacks turned a one-point lead into a 23-20 cushion after a kill by Norton. On the team’s first opportunity to close it out, Norton found the floor for the 11th time in the set to clinch a 25-23 win. Late in the third set, with the score tied at 20-all, Georgia put together another three-point spurt to take control of the set. Facing three set points, Norton put down a kill and served up an ace to keep the Razorbacks alive. However, on the next point, Bahr went through the Arkansas block for a kill and a set-three win for UGA, 25-23. In the fourth set, Arkansas won four rallies to take a 20-16 lead. Once again, the Bulldogs pushed their way back into the set by winning four of the next five points but the Razorbacks still held a one-point lead. On the verge of forcing a fifth set, Arkansas turned to Norton who responded with three kills down the stretch including the final putaway of the game.

AUBURN, Ala. – The University of Arkansas volleyball team closed out its weekend with a straight-set victory over Auburn (25-20, 25-18, 25-19) Sunday afternoon at in Auburn, Ala. The Razorbacks were paced by a match-high 15 kills from Jasmine Norton. Defensively, Arkansas got a match-high 11 digs from libero Christa Alvarez and five total blocks apiece from Roslandy Acosta and Janeliss Torres-Lopez. After trading points early in set one, the Razorbacks went out to a 9-6 lead after consecutive kills from Norton and an Auburn hitting error. Out of an Auburn timeout, the Tigers put together a run to pull to within one point but Arkansas responded with a seven-point surge to take a 18-10 lead. The Razorbacks’ advantage reached double digits after an attack error by Auburn gave the visitors a 21-11 advantage. From that point, however, the Tigers reeled off six points in a row to pull to within four. Arkansas recovered to regain control of play and arrived at set point with an Auburn service error. A fourth serving miscue by the home team handed the set to Arkansas, 25-20. Carrying over the momentum, the Razorbacks won the first six point of the second set. During the run, Arkansas benefited from a pair of tandem blocks and three attack errors from Auburn. Arkansas pushed its lead to seven, 11-4, when Auburn setter Chelsea Wintzinger was called for a lift. Out of a timeout, the Tigers won four of the next five points but Arkansas still held a 12-7 lead. Later in the set, a kill by Stipanovich gave the team a 20-11 lead. Play went back and forth until a tip kill by Kasey Heckelman found the line to give Arkansas set point, 24-15. Like they did in the opener, the Tigers extended play by winning the next three points. On the team’s fourth opportunity to close out the set, Norton found the floor to clinch the game, 25-18, and give the Razorbacks a 2-0 match lead. Arkansas won an extended rally to open the third set and went on to take a 5-1 lead after an ace from Norton. The Razorbacks turned a four-point lead into a 15-8 advantage to force an Auburn timeout. During the run, the team got a kill from TorresLopez and two kills from Norton. Throughout the remainder of the set, Arkansas led by at least five. Heckelman pushed the Razorback lead to 20-13 with her final kill of the match. The two teams traded points until Arkansas arrived at match point, 24-17, with the help of Norton’s final putaway. The Tigers saved two match points but on the third, Stipanovich put down a Santos offering to clinch the set, 25-19, and give Arkansas is 13th straight-set win of the season.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. – The University of Arkansas volleyball team dropped a straightset decision to No. 14 Tennessee (25-21, 25-17, 25-21) Friday evening at ThompsonBoling Arena in Knoxville.

After an even start to the match, Tennessee (25-3, 17-1 SEC) turned a tie score into a 12-9 advantage after a tandem block from Leslie Cikra and DeeDee Harrison. The Razorbacks pulled to within two points on a couple of occasions but the home team stretched its lead to six, 20-14, after an attack error from Norton. Facing a handful of set points, Arkansas (18-11, 10-8 SEC) reeled off three points in a row to stay alive. During the push, the Razorbacks got a pair of kills from Heckelman on the slide attack. Heckelman teamed with Stipanovich to put up a block save a third set point. However, on the next play, Harrison found the floor to give Tennessee the early match lead, 25-21. In the second set, the Lady Vols won the first three points but Arkansas rallied to take a 5-4 lead after a kill from Norton. As it did in the opener, Tennessee turned a tie into a three-point lead and led 9-6 after a triple block. The Razorback pulled to within a point after a setting error by Tennessee but the home team held on to the lead for the remainder of the game. The Lady Vols ended the set on a 4-0 run and went into the locker room with a two-set match lead. The two teams exchanged points to begin the third set but Tennessee won three of out of four points to take a 13-10 lead and force an Arkansas timeout. Later in the set, the Razorbacks strung together three points in a row—a kill by Norton, service ace by Heckelman and solo block by Norton—to pull even at 15-all.

LEXINGTON, Ky. – Jasmine Norton tied her season high with a 27-kill performance Sunday afternoon in a five-set loss at No. 16 Kentucky (18-25, 26-28, 25-23, 25-21, 15-13). Norton had 14 digs to go along with her offensive output. In the setback, Raymariely Santos dished out a career-high 61 assists and tied her season high with 16 digs. Kasey Heckelman led Arkansas’ charge at the net with a match-high nine total blocks. In the decisive fifth set, Kentucky (26-4, 17-2 SEC) jumped out to an early 4-0 lead but the Razorbacks battled back to even the score at 5-all after consecutive attack errors from the home team. In a set that saw back-and-forth action, the score was tied nine times in the finale. Janeliss Torres-Lopez put Arkansas (18-12, 10-9 SEC) ahead for the first time in the fifth set with a kill out of the middle. However, the Wildcats completed the comeback with three straight points to end the set, 15-13, and win the match. In the opening set, the team exchanged points until Kentucky went on a mini-run to take an 11-8 lead after kill from Lauren O’Conner. The Razorbacks responded with a five-point surge, capped by a pair of blocks involving Amanda Anderson, to take a 13-11 advantage. Arkansas pushed its lead to six, 20-14, after a kill from Norton. A kill by Roslandy Acosta brought the Razorbacks to set point and during the next rally, a UK attack went wild to hand Arkansas the first set, 25-18. The home team took a 23-21 lead with a three-point run late in set two. Looking to extend the set, the Razorback blocking combo of Norton and Heckelman teamed up for consecutive swats to pull even and then give Arkansas its first of four set points. The Razorbacks stayed out front and never allowed Kentucky to get to set point. On the team’s fourth chance to close out the set, Stipanovich found the floor to clinch the game, 28-26, and give Arkansas the two-set match lead. After dropping set 4, the Wildcats continued to rack up the points and went out to an early 3-1 lead in the fourth set. From a 10-10 tie later in the set, Kentucky reeled off four points in a row to take a 14-10 advantage. The Razorbacks’ deficit reached five after a combo block from O’Conner and Becky Pavan. Facing their first set point, the Razorbacks got a kill from Norton to extend play. On the next play, however, Gretchen Giesler found the floor for the Wildcats to clinch the set, 25-21, and send the match to a fifth set.

BATON ROUGE, La. – Jasmine Norton had a match-high 12 kills and Christa Alvarez collected a match-best 13 digs but the University of Arkansas volleyball team dropped a three-set decision to LSU (25-13, 25-18, 25-20) Saturday afternoon at the Maravich Center in Baton Rouge, La. With the loss, the Razorbacks fall to 18-13 overall and 1010 in Southeastern Conference play. With her fifth kill of the match, Norton moved past Yarleen Santiago (1997-99) into sixth place on Arkansas’ all-time kills list. With her effort Saturday, Norton now has 1,350 career kills to her credit. The Rowlett, Texas, native also moved into fourth place on the program’s total attempts list. Norton, now with 3,522 career attacks, surpassed Denise Baez (1994-96) in that category. In the first set, the teams went out to an even start but LSU (19-11, 12-8 SEC) went on a mini-run to take a 10-6 lead and force a timeout out of Arkansas. The home team continued to apply the pressure by winning three of the next four points to go out to a 13-7 lead. Later in the set, the Tigers doubled up on Arkansas, 22-11, with a fourpoint run behind the serve of Desiree Elliott. LSU closed out the set, 25-13, with a kill from Madie Jones. Like they did in the opener, the Razorbacks won the first two points of the second set with a kill from Amanda Anderson and an LSU attack error. After exchanging points, the Tigers turned a 7-6 lead into a five-point advantage after a tandem block. Trailing by eight, Arkansas put together a run to pull to within five. With Adriana Vazquez at the service line, the Razorbacks got kills from Norton and Raymariely Santos. However, Jones and Michele Williams combined for a block to clinch the set for LSU, 25-18. A combo block by Amanda Anderson and Kasey Heckelman gave Arkansas an early 4-2 lead in set three. After an overpass kill by Charmaine Whitmore put the team ahead, 7-3. The home team cut their deficit to one but the Razorbacks responded with three consecutive kills to force an LSU timeout. The Tigers battled back and tied the score at 17-all with a service ace that trickled over the net to find the floor. After trading side outs, the Tigers went on a four-point surge to make their finale push of the match and lead, 23-19. A service error by LSU broke the momentum but the home team recovered to close out the set, 25-20, on an Arkansas lift violation and secure the straight-set victory.

MILESTONE CLUB Adding the sport in 1994, the University of Arkansas has a short, 18-year history of volleyball. In that time, 15 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. All 15 players were named to the All-Southeastern Conference team at least once during their career with Jessica Field and Kim Storey earning American Volleyball Coaches Association All-America honors in 1997 and 1998, respectively. In addition, five members of the 1,000-kill club--Krystal Osborne, Yarleen Santiago, Kim Storey, Denitza Koleva and Denise Baez--tallied at least 1,000 digs during their respective Razorback careers.

Lawrence needed two kills for 1,000 and finished with a Razorback-best nine. She hit .250 for Arkansas and had one dig while scoring nine points in the milestone match against the Gators.
Over the 18-year history of Razorback volleyball, only two setters have eclipsed 3,000 career assists. That distinction belongs to Tina Rico and Ning Zhao, the setters that directed the Arkansas offense for the first six years of the program. Rico is also a member of the 1,000-dig club and still owns the school record for service aces. Zhao ranks first in program history with 12.99 assists per set during her two years in Cardinal and White.

Ashley Miller set the Arkansas school record for career digs in game two against Kansas State at the Varney’s KSU Invitational Sept. 7, in Manhattan, Kan. The Vacaville, Calif., native finished the match with 1,693 career digs sliding by former Razorback Krystal Osborne (1994-97) who finished her career with 1,659. Miller’s successful season continued as she broke the Southeastern Conference career digs record several weeks later in a five-game come-frombehind win at Georgia. Miller entered the match with 2,033 and finished the contest with 25 erasing the SEC record formerly held by Kentucky’s Jenni Casper who had 2,037. Miller finished the year with a single-season record 570 digs and career record 2,126 - more than 467 career digs than the secondplace spot. In addition, she holds the career digs per game record with a 4.40 mark and the single match record with 36 set against Ole Miss in 2006.

ARKANSAS IN THE POSTSEASON
1996
1999
2005
“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, 15-7, but not before they won the hearts of the volleyball-savvy Cornhuskers fan, players and coaching staff.
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.
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.
2003
2006
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 sixth-ranked 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.
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.

2001
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 22 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 five times. The Tennessee Lady Vols won the SEC title in 2011, their second championship in program history and first outright. Tennessee shared the title in 2004 and also has three SEC Tournament Titles to its credit. The SEC sent three teams to the 2011 NCAA Tournament: Florida, Kentucky and Tennessee. The Gators advanced to the Regional final for the first time since 2005 while Kentucky reached the Sweet 16. Tennessee advanced to the Second Round. Since the inaugural SEC volleyball championship in 1979-80, many changes have occurred in the conference with volleyball. The addition of Missouri and Texas A&M to the league in 2012 increases the Eastern Division to six teams while seven teams will compete 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 mes on CSS and CST.

2012 ARKANSAS RAZORBACK VOLLEYBALL MEDIA GUIDE
Founded in 1871, The University of Arkansas is the flagship institution of the University of Arkansas System. Located in Fayetteville in Arkansas’ northwest corner, the U of A is the state’s foremost partner and resource for education and economic development. The U of A offers 213 baccalaureate, master’s, doctoral, professional and specialist degree programs. In keeping with its status as Arkansas’ land-grant university, the U of A has a 140-year-old mandate to educate, to conduct basic and applied research, and to extend knowledge and resources to the people of Arkansas and beyond through public engagement and service. The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching recently classified the U of A as a national research university with a very high level of research activity, based on the number of doctoral degrees awarded, research grants received, and other factors. The U of A is the only Arkansas institution with such a ranking and is among just 108 institutions in the United States (out of 4,633) to have received that classification. The U of A has enormous influence over Arkansans’ social, cultural, and recreational life, especially the widespread passion for the university’s athletics teams, the Arkansas Razorbacks. The U of A’s location in northwest Arkansas is viewed as one of the university’s strongest attributes. Fayetteville is widely recognized as one of the best college communities in the U.S. The city’s Dickson Street district abuts the U of A campus and features scores of restaurants, shops, and entertainment venues. Northwest Arkansas is a vibrant economic region with a national reputation for its high quality of life. Three of the U.S.’s largest corporations have their world headquarters in the region: Tyson Foods, J.B. Hunt Transportation, and the world’s largest retailer, Walmart, Inc. Because of their presence, many other corporations have established primary or secondary headquarters in Northwest Arkansas. Their close proximity to the U of A campus, along with their executives’ and employees’ active involvement in university life, offers students and faculty exceptional opportunities for research partnerships, internships, and post-graduation employment. The U of A boasts one of the most unique features and traditions found on any college or university campus: Senior Walk, a nearly three-mile stretch of concrete sidewalks criss-crossing campus into which the names of every U of A graduate is engraved. More than 140,000 names currently appear, grouped alphabetically by year of graduation. Senior Walk epitomizes the university’s emphasis on “putting students first,” a philosophy captured in its tag line, “the YOU of A.” The U of A features distinctive architecture, including its signature building, Old Main, finished in 1875. As the original administrative facility, the iconic building now houses the J. William Fulbright College of Arts and Sciences. The college is named in
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 mid1980s 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.

honor of former U of A President (and, later, U.S. Senator) J. William Fulbright, who helped create the prestigious international scholarship and fellowship programs that bear his name. The U of A’s distinctive Fulbright Peace Fountain, designed by architect Fay Jones, recognizes its namesake’s role in promoting peaceful resolution of world conflicts. Academically, the U of A is organized into 10 schools and colleges: the Dale Bumpers College of Agricultural, Food and Life Sciences; the College of Education and Health Professions; the College of Engineering; the J. William Fulbright College of Arts and Sciences; and the Sam M. Walton College of Business. The university also features the Fay Jones School of Architecture, the Graduate School and International Education, the Honors College, the School of Law and the Global Campus, which provides academic outreach and programs to more than 15,000 learners a year. The U of A’s total annual operating budget for FY2012 is $528 million. Tuition and fee revenues make up the largest source of revenues, followed by an annual state appropriation. Almost 77 percent of all full-time undergraduate students receive some form of financial aid. U of A undergraduate tuition rates were ranked 38th lowest in the nation among land-grant universities, in keeping with the university’s emphasis on keeping itself accessible and affordable. In August 2011, the U of A enrolled a record 23,119 students. The student body consisted of students from all 50 states and more than 100 countries. More than 300 student organizations also exist on campus. There are plenty of things to do on- and offcampus. The HPER Center, the university’s state-of-the-art recreational facility, offers a great place to climb, swim, run, lift weights, do aerobics and yoga, or play basketball. Cultural and recreational options include attending lectures, readings, and theatrical performances, shopping opportunities, and listening to live music on nearby Dickson Street. In 2009, University Chancellor G. David Gearhart presented a long-range strategic plan that was formally endorsed by the elected leaders of the faculty, staff, and student body. The plan emphasizes a commitment to “students first,” and outlines goals and strategies to ensure that all students receive the resources and support they need to achieve their academic goals. The plan also emphasizes the U of A’s commitment to transparency and accountability to the people of Arkansas in its operation. More information about the U of A may be found at www.uark.edu.
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.

DR. SHARON HUNT FACULTY ATHLETICS 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 since 1990, and she served as the department head of the recently renamed Department of Health, Human Performance and Recreation from July 1,1990 until June 30, 2011 except for the 2000-01 academic year, when she served as the interim dean of the College of Education and Health Professions 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 undergraduate 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 fifth 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 and gained national attention for his leadership 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 three years, Razorback Athletics has made a $1 million gift to support the university’s academic mission. The department’s total support of university and student programs and initiatives has grown to more than $5 million annually. Long’s leadership and unwavering commitment to the student-athletes and maintaining integrity within intercollegiate athletics has not gone unnoticed. In 2011-12, Long was named a finalist for the SportsBusiness Journal and SportsBusiness Daily Athletic Director of the Year. In the spring of 2012, the Donald W. Reynolds Foundation and longtime chairman Fred W. Smith made a gift of more than $1.25 million to the program in recognition of Long’s leadership of Razorback Athletics. In Long’s tenure, Arkansas has captured 11 conference championships and advanced to 68 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 2011-12, Arkansas finished No. 20 in the Learfield Sports Directors Cup, a year-long competition ranking the nation’s most successful intercollegiate athletic programs, the fourth time in the past five years the Razorbacks have finished in the nation’s top 25. In the classroom, the Razorbacks continue to set new standards including posting a student-athlete grade point average of 3.07 in 2011-12. It marked the fourth consecutive year Razorback student-athletes posted a GPA exceeding 3.0. 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 5,000 hours of time for more than 100 agencies, organizations and schools. One of the nation’s most active athletic directors on Twitter, Long embraces the opportunity to interact with members of the Razorback Nation whether in person or through social media. 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. 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 partnering with former Razorback Jerry Jones to develop the Southwest Classic, a football series with Texas A&M played at the spectacular Cowboys Stadium.
The Longs: (l-r): Jeff, Fanny, Stephanie and Christina. 122
Under Long’s leadership, the program has fortified its financial standing ensuring more support for the development of student-athletes. According to the Wall Street Journal, Arkansas is one of only 22 self-sustaining Division I-A athletic programs in the nation. 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. In December 2011, Forbes Magazine estimated the value of the Razorback Football program at $89 million, eighth in the nation. Arkansas saw the largest increase (59%) from the previous rankings released in 2009. Follow me @JeffLongUA In 2010, Long moved to help meet the growing financial needs of fielding a nationally competitive all sports program. The athletic department launched the “Answer the Call” campaign through the Razorback Foundation which resulted in more than 2,600 new members and helped generate more than $6.5 million in additional support for Razorback student-athletes. With an eye towards the future, Long commissioned a comprehensive plan to assess the future facility needs of the program. Unveiled in October 2011, the Razorback Athletic Facilities Master Plan provided a vision and the road map for $320 million of facility renovations and additions that will help all 19 Razorback sports remain competitive in the Southeastern Conference and nationally over the next 30 years. The first major project from the master plan, the football center, is currently being constructed 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 five of the six Bowl Championship Series conferences – the Big 12, Big Ten, Big East, Atlantic Coast and SEC - gives Long a uniquely informed perspective on intercollegiate athletics. 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. An Ohio native from Kettering, Long is married to the former Fanny Gellrich of Ann Arbor, Mich. The Longs have two daughters, Stephanie and Christina.
