Dougherty, a native of Ellicott City, Md., was named the University of Iowa’s seventh women’s head coach November 19, 2009. Before Dougherty arrived on campus, the women’s tennis program had advanced to the NCAA Division I doubles championship just two times. That appearance total doubled in 2011 when the Hawkeyes sent a doubles tandem to the NCAA tournament for the second time in as many seasons under Dougherty’s watch. In 2010, her first season at Iowa, the Hawkeyes reached No. 18 in the ITA national rankings, the highest ranking in program history, and earned the No. 4 seed in the Big Ten Championships. Dougherty guided Iowa to the NCAA Championships, ending a four-year postseason drought, and the team’s 17-7 overall record made Dougherty the winningest first-year coach in program history. Under Dougherty’s leadership, Iowa’s No. 1 doubles team of Merel Beelen and Sonja Molnar earned the No. 14 seed in the doubles tournament at the NCAA Championships. The duo became Iowa’s first doubles team to advance to the national championships since 2000. Prior to joining the Hawkeyes, Dougherty served as assistant coach and recruiting coordinator at Wisconsin, where she managed the day-to-day operations of the women’s tennis program and served as a co-director of Badger summer tennis camps. Her 2008 and 2009 recruiting classes received national recognition from Tennisrecruiting.net. Dougherty served as an assistant coach at Penn State (2004-07) and American University (2003-04) before joining the Badgers. She helped guide American to the 2004 Patriot League title and automatic berth in the NCAA tournament. Dougherty has also gained experience beyond collegiate tennis, serving as a junior development coach at both the Four Star Tennis Academy in Merrifield, Va., and the Western Racquet Club in Elm Grove, Wis. At the Four Star Academy, Dougherty instructed a number of nationally-ranked juniors. Before beginning her coaching career at the Western Racquet Club in 2003, Dougherty competed collegiately at Wisconsin (1999-2002). A four-year letterwinner for the Badgers, Dougherty finished her career with 45 singles victories. She was also a nationally-ranked doubles player, claiming 45 career doubles wins. Since 2008, Dougherty has been a Professional Tennis Registry Certified Professional. She was a nationally-ranked junior player in singles and doubles and was the 1997 Baltimore Sun Athlete of the Year. She graduated from Wisconsin in 2002 with a degree in English. PA G E 7

G A R Y B A R TA B I O Gary Barta Director of Athletics Now in his eighth year as director of athletics at the University of Iowa, Gary Barta continues to provide the UI’s almost 900 student-athletes, coaches, administrators, and support staff the strong leadership and strategic vision that is the foundation for the Hawkeyes’ success both today and in the future. Barta often notes, “Hope is not a strategy,” and evidence of his commitment to planning and execution is his second strategic plan for the UI Athletics Department. The latest document addresses the next five years for the Hawkeyes and is built on the same core tenets contained in the first:
The Barta family includes Connie, Madison, Gary and Luke.
Win. Graduate. Do it right. Under Barta’s direction, the UI continues to put into place the infrastructure that will provide the foundation for competitive success. The 2012-13 basketball season provides an outstanding example of the impact state-of-the-art facilities can have on a program. Boosted by a new practice facility and an enhanced strength and conditioning facility – two pieces of Barta’s first strategic plan for the UI – Fran McCaffery’s Iowa men’s basketball team won 25 games and advanced to the championship game of the 2013 National Invitation Tournament. Lisa Bluder’s Iowa women’s basketball team earned its sixth consecutive invitation to the NCAA Tournament. Another example of investments made under Barta’s direction that have helped Iowa turn the corner competitively is the UI men’s golf program. Barta increased his commitment to the sport when he hired native Iowan Mark Hankins, who had a vision for the program that included a new practice facility. Barta, Hankins and the Hawkeyes celebrated the opening of the new $6 million Hoak Family Golf Facility in February, just three months before Hankins’ nationally ranked squad made its fifth straight appearance in the national regional championships. The Hawkeyes have advanced to the NCAA Championships in three of the last five seasons. Women’s basketball and men’s golf are two of the eight UI programs that participated in national championship competition in 2012-13. At the top of the list was Tom Brands’ wrestling program, which crowned one national champion, had four wrestlers earn All-America honors, and finished fourth nationally at the end of a season that included a Big Ten Conference Dual Meet championship. JD Reive’s men’s gymnastics team had three individuals earn All-America honors after finishing fifth at the national meet. Larissa Libby’s women’s gymnastics program advanced to NCAA regional competition for the sixth straight season.
The Iowa field hockey program under the direction of Tracy Greisbaum advanced to its sixth NCAA Tournament over the last nine years and 22nd in school history – a total that ranks No. 1 among the Hawkeyes’ Big Ten Conference peers. Two Hawkeyes were named AllAmericans. Iowa’s 200 and 400 medley relay teams and backstroker Grant Betulius earned AllAmerica honors while leading Marc Long’s men’s swimming and diving team to a 32nd place at the national championship. Larry Wieczorek’s UI track and field program crowned eight All-Americans en route to placing 35th at the national outdoor championship. Interest in the Hawkeyes continues to soar. Sellouts for home games of the football team at historic Kinnick Stadium and a waiting list for access to the premium seating areas inside the Paul W. Brechler Press Box are the norm. So, too, is Iowa leading the country in attendance at home wrestling events -- Iowa averaged just under 9,000 fans per home dual match in 2012-13 – and being ranked among the nation’s Top 20 in attendance in women’s basketball. Success on the court has also resulted in spinning turnstiles for home games of the UI men’s basketball team. The Hawkeyes’ run to New York City’s Madison Square Garden and the NIT championship game included a pair of sold out games on Mediacom Court in 15,400seat Carver-Hawkeye Arena. Those two sellouts, paired with three regular season sellouts, helped to push Iowa’s total average per game to 13,625, an improvement of more than 1,700 per game that has pushed the Hawkeyes into the nation’s Top 25 in per game attendance. Under Barta’s leadership, Iowa has also embraced new technologies and that, too, has paid dividends: Iowa ranks among the nation’s Top 10 in Facebook “friends” and Twitter “followers.” The UI also delivers Hawk Talk Daily, a daily e-newsletter, and Hawk Talk Monthly, a monthly e-magazine, to more than 70,000 friends of the UI and fans of the Hawkeyes to complement the news, information, video and photography available on hawkeyesports.com, the official world wide web site of the Iowa Hawkeyes and the UI’s anchor in the digital world. Academically, Iowa continues to achieve at pace that sets the bar across the state and competes favorably with its peers in the Big Ten Conference. UI student-athletes set new records for academic achievement, according to data released by the NCAA in October 2012, as part of its annual report on the work in the classroom by student-athletes across the country. Student-athletes that entered the UI in the fall of 2005 graduated at a rate of 77 percent, according to the NCAA. That mark - which uses the federal government benchmark for graduation success – is three points better than the 2011 report when Iowa tied the previous school record of 74 percent set first in 1994-95. It is also six points better than the UI student body and 12 points better than that achieved all by student-athletes nationally. The UI also set a new record by posting a score of 87 percent in the NCAA’s “Graduation Success Rate” or GSR, one point better than what was posted in 86. It marked PA G E 2 4
IOWATENNIS the seventh time in the eight years of the GSR’s existence that Iowa’s student-athletes scored 80 percent or better. The GSR’s for football (82), men’s basketball (89), and women’s basketball (100) all bested the national averages in their sport: 68, 65, and 86, respectively. The NCAA’s Academic Progress Rate report for 2012-13 revealed that for the fourth consecutive year all of Iowa’s 24 sports programs were comfortably above the 930 threshold that signals a red flag for the NCAA. The highlights of Iowa’s report include APR’s for 18 of Iowa’s programs that were better than the national average in that sport, including football, men’s basketball, and wrestling. The APR for Iowa’s football program – 961 – was an all-time best. As noted, Barta has been the driving force behind substantial investments in the facilities used by Iowa’s more than 850 talented male and female student-athletes. When the Iowa football program moves into its new $54 million operations center in late summer 2014, the UI will have completed more than $220 million of construction and renovation work over the previous eight years. That list of projects includes a $47 million facelift and addition to Iowa’s award-winning Carver-Hawkeye Arena, a project that directly impacted 23 of Iowa’s 24 sports programs, two phases of improvements to the facilities used daily by Iowa’s football program – construction of a new indoor practice facility and renovation of the Kenyon Outdoor Practice facility in Phase I, and construction of a state-of-theart operations center in Phase II, a $9 million investment in scoreboards, ribbon boards, and video walls at historic Kinnick Stadium, construction of the aforementioned $6 million Hoak Family Golf Facility at Iowa’s award-winning Finkbine Golf Course, turf replacement at Grant field, the home of Iowa’s nationally ranked field hockey program, resurfacing of the courts at the Klotz Tennis Center, the home of Iowa’s men’s and women’s tennis programs, and the construction of a new indoor turf facility. On the horizon for Barta, from a facilities perspective, is the planning and construction of the “Hawkeye Campus.” Located on the western edge of the UI campus, immediately west of Finkbine Golf Course and adjacent to the UI’s Athletics Hall of Fame, the practice and competition sites for Iowa’s soccer and field hockey programs, and the UI Sports Medicine facility, and near the UI’s Ashton Cross Country Course, the Hawkeye Campus is envisioned to be the new home for Iowa’s track and field, softball, and baseball programs. Another favorite saying of Barta’s is, “Vision without resources is irrelevant.” Over the course of his career he has been directly involved in raising hundreds of millions of dollars in support of intercollegiate athletics. This task has remained a primary focus during his tenure at Iowa, where private support for the Hawkeyes continues to be a critical piece to Iowa’s ability to remain one of a handful of NCAA Division I intercollegiate athletics programs that are 100 percent self-sustaining financially. Under Barta’s leadership -- and thanks to a talented athletics development staff - the UI has seen year-over-year improvement in annual giving in spite of the difficult economic environment. In addition, under Barta’s direction, the UI generated more than $20 million of philanthropic and corporate sponsorship support for the revitalization of Carver-Hawkeye Arena and more than $30 million of support for phases I and II of the projects designed to position Iowa’s football program for success in the next decade.
G A R Y B A R TA B I O The UI also generated the $2 million in private support necessary to fully fund the Hawkeyes’ new practice facility for its men’s and women’s golf programs. Philanthropic support will also play a critical role in the development of the Hawkeye Campus. Barta’s involvement in the UI campus and the greater Iowa City communities extends far beyond his position as director of the UI’s intercollegiate athletics programs. He is a member of the President’s Cabinet, comprised of vice presidents and other campus leaders that provide counsel to UI President Sally Mason. That group was instrumental in the UI’s response to record-setting flooding that besieged the campus and the Iowa City and Coralville community in June 2008. Barta also represents the UI and the Hawkeyes at the conference and national level. During his first six years at the UI, he has participated in the creation and implementation of the Big Ten Network, the expansion of the Big Ten Conference and realignment of athletics conferences nationally, and the Big Ten’s postseason bowl game agreements that were successfully implemented in 2010. Nationally, Barta remains active in the Division IA Athletics Directors Association, the National Association of College Directors of Athletics, and currently serves on the NCAA Football Committee Board of Directors. Barta is also involved in a variety of community groups, included the United Way of Johnson County and Partnership for Alcohol Safety, a joint effort between UI campus leaders and the city of Iowa City. Barta often suggests to his staff that “Hope is not a strategy,” which is why he is currently overseeing a comprehensive review of the strategic plan for the UI Athletics Department and has worked with the UI’s leadership on a long-term financial plan. As the director of athletics at the University of Wyoming for three years, seven different UW coaches were named Mountain West Conference Coach of the Year. He also spearheaded a fund-raising effort that netted the Cowboy athletics program $11 million in private support and $11 million in matching state fund. As the senior associate athletics director at the University of Washington, he directed the “Campaign for the Student-Athlete,” was a participant in the design, construction and/or renovation of several UW athletics facilities, including Bank of America Arena and the Dempsey Indoor Practice Facility. In addition to almost doubling the amount of annual private support received by UW, Barta also managed the department’s external relations division, a task that included corporate sponsorship and radio contracts. His responsibilities at Washington expanded over time to include hiring of coaching and administrative staff, and the day-to-day oversight of several Huskie sport teams. The roots of his development experience extend to his first two positions: director of athletics development and external relations at the University of Northern Iowa and director of development at his alma mater, North Dakota State University. Barta earned a Bachelor of Science degree in mass communication and broadcast journalism from NDSU in 1987. He was an option quarterback for Bison football squads that won the Division II NCAA National Championship in 1983, 1985 and 1986. Barta, and his wife, Connie, have a son, Luke (15) and a daughter, Madison (13). He was born Sept. 4, 1963, in Minneapolis. PA G E 2 5
IOWATENNIS IOWA CONTINUES TO BUILD FOR SUCCESS The UI Department of Athletics is under the direction of Gary Barta and is regarded as one of the top intercollegiate programs in the nation. Once again, the Hawkeyes enjoyed success both athletically and academically in 2012-13 Academically, the UI’s federal graduation rate of 77 percent (for student-athletes who enrolled in the fall of 2005)is the best mark in school history. That mark was six points better than the UI student body and 12 points better than achieved by student-athletes nationally. For the fourth consecutive year, all 24 of Iowa’s teams exceeded the Academic Progress Rate (APR) benchmark and the program posted a record 87 percent in the NCAA’s “Graduation Success Rate.” It is the seventh time in eight years of the GSR’s existence that Iowa’s student-athletes scored 80 percent or better. Athletically, Hawkeye teams enjoyed another outstanding year in 2012-13, as a significant number of Iowa’s 24 programs reached postseason play. The Iowa men’s basketball team advanced to the championship game of the National Invitation Tournament, the women’s basketball team competed in the NCAA Tournament for the sixth straight season and the wrestling team finished fourth at the NCAA Championships. In February, 2013, the UI dedicated the 4,200-square foot James M. Hoak Family Golf Complex, a state-of-the-art golf facility featuring indoor putting and chipping green and two indoor-to-outdoor heated practice bays. It came on the heels of the completion of a $47 million revitalization of Carver-Hawkeye Arena in the summer of 2011. That project included the construction of a practice facility for men’s and women’s basketball and volleyball, a 10,000-square-foot strength training and cardiovascular center, and an expansion to the Dan Gable Wrestling Complex, in addition to new locker room and support facilities for men’s and women’s basketball, wrestling and volleyball programs, and office space for the majority of Iowa administrative and coaching staffs. Phase I of a two-phase project for the UI football program was completed in August, 2012. Phase I included a new indoor practice facility for head coach Kirk Ferentz’ football program that has competed in 10 bowl games over the past 12 seasons. Phase II includes construction of the new Iowa Football Operations Center, which will include new team locker rooms, team meeting rooms, athletic medical training space, video operations, and coaches offices and meeting rooms. Funded entirely through private support and revenue generated by the UI Athletics Department, the project is an important next phase of the master facilities plan for Hawkeye football.
A T O TA L P R O G R A M IOWA WOMEN’S BASKETBALL
UI head coach Lisa Bluder guided the Hawkeye women’s basketball team to its sixth-straight NCAA Tournament in a year when the Hawkeyes hosted first and second round contests inside Carver-Hawkeye Arena. Iowa moved on to the Round of 32 following an opening-round victory Miami (Fla.) and finished 21-13 overall. The Hawkeyes are the only Big Ten team to appear in six consecutive NCAA tournaments and one of 13 schools nationally.
IOWA MEN’S TRACK AND FIELD
The men’s track and field team placed 35th at the NCAA Outdoor Track and Field Championships and earned All-America recognition in nine events. Senior Justin Austin swept the Big Ten Athlete of the Championships and Big Ten Athlete of the Year honors for the second time in his career.
IOWA MEN’G GOLF
Head coach Mark Hankins led the Hawkeyes to their fifth-straight NCAA Regional appearance in 2013 and two student-athletes garnered all-region honors. Senior Steven Ihm made a splash in the summer, winning the Sunnehanna Amateur and competing on the PGA Tour in the 2013 John Deere Classic.
IOWA MEN’S BASKETBALL
Third-year head coach Fran McCaffery led the Hawkeyes to 25 wins -- matching the second-highest win total in school history -- and to the championship game of the National Invitation Tournament. The team’s success saw increased attendance, as Iowa had six sellouts at Carver-Hawkeye Arena, which led to a No. 21 national home attendance ranking.
IOWA SWIMMING AND DIVING
The Iowa men’s swimming and diving team placed seventh at the Big Ten Championship and had six student-athletes compete at the NCAA Championships. For their efforts, the 400 medley relay team received honorable mention AllAmerican recognition. Hawkeye women’s swimming and diving placed 10th at the Big Ten Championships a year ago. Also, a total of four divers, three from the women’s team and one from the men’s squad, qualified for the NCAA Zone D Diving Championships.
IOWA WRESTLING
The Hawkeye wrestling team -- the national attendance leader in each of the last seven seasons -- continued its dominance on the mat, finishing fourth at the NCAA Championships. Four Hawkeyes earned All-America accolades in 2013, including 157-pound national champion Derek St. John. Iowa has claimed 23 national championships since 1975 and 34 Big Ten titles in its history.
IOWA FOOTBALL
Iowa football opened its 2012-13 season with a 4-2 start before dropping its final six contests of the season. Things are looking up in 2013-14 as the Hawkeyes return 14 starters, including its two leading rushers and four of five leading receivers on offense, and its top three tacklers on defense. PA G E 2 6

The University of Iowa offers more than 400 student organizations, extensive recreation facilities, 50 fraternities and sororities, and a broad schedule of arts performances, lectures, cultural celebrations and club sports and intramural athletic contests to go along with the intercollegiate competition within the Big Ten Conference.
STUDENT-ORIENTED NIGHT LIFE Iowa’s campus is set right in the city’s downtown area, where you’ll find dance clubs, movies, coffeehouses, and restaurants to suit every taste. Live music can be found any night of the week in clubs and restaurants, even outside on warm evenings on the downtown pedestrian mall. Iowa City businesses are convenient and geared toward student tastes and needs.

C OT NH SE I D U ENRI VTEHRES ICTOY MOMF UI N O IW TA Y CONSIDER THE OPPORTUNITY FOR A QUALITY EDUCATION A quality education is one of the highest priorities at the University of Iowa. Just over 90 percent of Johnson County residents have graduated from high school, and in Iowa City nearly half of all residents have earned bachelor’s degrees. In fact, census statistics indicate Johnson County is the 10th “smartest” county in the nation, based on percentage of residents holding bachelor’s degrees. The University of Iowa represents a strong presence in the community while enhancing the quality of life in Iowa City. Your aspiration may be a career in medicine, law or education. Regardless of the specific career field, it’s important to identify the college baseball program that places a high priority on academics and allows you to take full advantage of the tremendous educational opportunities available. At the University of Iowa, student-athletes learn quickly that academic success is the highest priority. ATHLETICS AND ACADEMICS At The University of Iowa, a strong relationship has been developed between athletics and academics, where coaches and athletes work hand-in-hand with academic deans and professors, assuring the student-athlete the best possible opportunities to excel in the classroom and in athletics. From the first visit for any prospective student-athlete, to the completion of their academic and athletic career at Iowa, academic personnel play a large role in the career of Hawkeye studentathletes. Beginning with the on-campus visits, student-athletes are introduced to professors in their selected field of study, and are able to establish a relationship and develop an understanding of the academic setting in which they will be involved.

When a student-athlete considers his future, he should consider prospects beyond baseball. He should consider where he wants to be five, ten, fifteen years from today, and the best course of action for getting there. Also, he should decide early on to commit to excellence in every challenge undertaken. Without a doubt, the men and women listed here took time to consider their future and the ways to get there. These former University of Iowa undergraduates have gone on to become leaders in their chosen fields. They also pursued their academic studies as strongly as the Iowa Hawkeyes go after a loose ball or rebound. BUSINESS Leland C. Adams Former president, Amoco Production Co. B.J.

THE HAWKEYE NICKNAME The University of Iowa borrowed its athletic nickname from the state of Iowa many years ago. The name Hawkeye was originally the name of the hero in the fictional novel, The Last of the Mohicans, written by James Fenimore Cooper. Cooper had the Delaware Indians bestow the name on a white scout who lived with them. In 1838, 12 years after the book was published, people in the territory of Iowa acquired the nickname, chiefly through the efforts of Judge David Rorer of Burlington and James Edwards of Fort Madison. Edwards, editor of the Fort Madison Patriot, moved his paper to Burlington in 1843 and renamed it the Burlington Hawkeye. The two men continued their campaign to popularize the name, and territorial officials eventually gave it their formal approval. Herky The Hawkeye
The Hawkeye nickname gained a tangible symbol in 1948 when a cartoon character, later to be named Herky the Hawkeye was hatched. The creator was Richard Spencer III, instructor of journalism at Iowa. The impish Hawk was an immediate hit and acquired a name through a statewide contest staged by the athletic department. John Franklin, a Belle Plaine alumnus, was the man who suggested Herky. Since his birth more than 45 years ago, Herky has symbolized Iowa athletics and epitomized University life. He even donned a military uniform during the Korean War and became the insignia of the 124th Fighter Squadron. During the mid-1950s, Herky came to life at a football game as the Iowa mascot. Since that time, Herky has been a familiar figure at Iowa athletics events.
