The Hawkeyes graduated two defensive players in Mandy Heimann and Jenna Aleo, but return a wealth of experience in goal. Senior Emily Moran returns for her third season as a starter in front of the net. Moran has accumulated 263 career saves, 90 in 2010, and is second on Iowa’s all-time career saves list. “This year for the goalkeepers, what we have is exciting because we have something old in Emily Moran who has been a starter for us for a few years and who made a great jump last fall and spring as a goalkeeper,” said Rainey. “So, we have some senior leadership in goal with Emily, and then we welcome two freshmen in Caitlin Schnorbach and Kiley Beck who can be mentored by Emily and also can compete to push her and push each other. I am very excited about that position.” Iowa’s defense may be missing two players from the 2010 season, but the Hawkeyes have been working to fill those holes since last spring. One of the most crucial, and competitive, positions on the field will be anchored by senior Rachel Blakesley, who will be expected to set the tone on the back line. Blakesley was an incremental part of Iowa’s defense that boosted the team to a seven-game win streak last season. Joining the senior will be classmates Morgan Showalter and Sarah Langlas, as well as three incoming freshmen who have the capability to protect the goal.
ALEX MELIN SOPHOMORE
“We graduated a couple players like Jenna Aleo and Mandy Heimann last year, but we have Rachel Blakesly as a senior who has played center back for us for a couple years,” said Rainey. “We also have someone like Kat Lewis who is a junior who we are looking at to do some big things this year, and I also think that will be a very competitive position during preseason. We have the possibility of a lot of different people stepping in there. Sarah Langlas played back there a little bit in the spring, as did Morgan Showalter. We have some freshmen, Mel Pickert, Katie Brown and Marissa Hurt who all have experience playing in the back so I think we will have a good mixture of experience and newcomers back there. I do believe that will be the most competitive position through the preseason as well as the first part of the nonconference games.”

“The Big Ten tournament, it’s awesome that it’s back for Big Ten women’s soccer,” Rainey said. “To have the top eight teams out of 12 in the league is exciting. The format is a little different with Wednesday-Friday-Sunday which will allow people to rest a little bit more. I think our league is at a point where if you qualify for that Big Ten tournament, you can have expectations of winning it whether you’re the eight seed or the one seed. Northwestern will provide a great setting and the event will be a great celebration for the teams in the league that are able to qualify for those games in November.”

The University of Iowa women’s soccer team looks to the 2011 season with excitement. Sixth year head coach Ron Rainey and the Hawkeyes welcome state border foes Nebraska to the conference and will have an opportunity to play in the reinstated Big Ten Tournament, to be held on the campus of Northwestern in November.

SEASON PREVIEW Showalter, a senior from Cedar Rapids, will juggle time between the back field and middle third in order to balance senior leadership and experience. The Hawkeye veteran has started every game of her career (61) and has recorded 42 points on 12 goals and 18 assists. Juniors Jade Grimm, Gabby Ainsworth and Allie Adam also have experience in the midfield, combining for 61 starts in the last two seasons. Sophomores Alex Melin and Katie Nasenbenny will also be competing for a spot in the midfield. Melin started all 20 contests during her freshman campaign, scoring three goals with one assist. The Verona, Wis., native also traveled to Germany over the summer to compete on the United States Youth Soccer Associate U-19 team. Nasenbenny will be back on the field following a season-ending injury last season.
ALYSSA COSNEK SENIOR
“In midfield, I mentioned that Morgan Showalter has been in midfield for the last three years,” Rainey said. “That is something we will have to see, does she make the move to the back to help shore up the defense there or does she play in the midfield? But, we do have some other players up there that we are excited about. Alex Melin, as a sophomore, can do very well. Katie Nasenbenny, coming back from injury, can be somebody that plays in the midfield, as well as someone like Gabby Ainsworth, who is someone that has gotten some time in the back. Sarah Langlas, Jade Grimm, Allie Adam, all of those players can find time in the midfield for us this year.” In the front third, the Hawkeyes will be led by junior Dana Dalrymple, a speedster from Ohio. Dalrymple started 18 times for Iowa last season, playing alongside senior Alyssa Cosnek and sophomore Leah DeMoss. During her freshman campaign, DeMoss found the net five times and tallied three assists. Cosnek, a fourth year starter, has recorded 20 goals and ranks fifth on Iowa’s all-time career goals list. “We need our forwards to step up and score goals for us in big games,” Rainey said. “Alyssa Cosnek, Dana, Leah DeMoss are all players that have done that for us and we need that same productivity in Big Ten games. Incoming player, Cloé Lacasse, I think, can do very well for us in that position. Jess Yagla is somebody who can play up top or somebody who can play in the midfield. We need someone who can step up during the preseason. Ashley Catrell is also someone who scored a big goal for us last year versus Purdue. Again, with the forwards, it is going to be real simple, how productive they are in games is going to determine who is getting playing time in those games. It’s at that point where we’re not really concerned with how pretty it is but we need people that can score goals in games.”
MORGAN SHOWALTER SENIOR
The Hawkeyes set a school record in 2010 with seven consecutive victories, but slowed once the Big Ten season arrived. The main goal for the upcoming season will be to score goals, pressure the opposing defense and protect the home goal.

Rainey and the student-athletes kick off their 2011 season with an exhibition match against Drake University on August 13. The team travels to DePaul to open the regular season on Aug. 19 and returns to Iowa City for the home opener against Southeast Missouri State (Aug 21). Coaches and team members are excited about the competition the upcoming season brings. “I think it’s a mix of opponents that are going to push us,” Rainey said. “Opponents that we may need to play differently to be successful against and opponents that will ready us for the Big Ten season. The Big Ten season is an exciting season knowing that every single game will be a difficult one. Starting with Illinois and ending with Wisconsin, everyone in between, if we don’t play our best, we won’t have the success that we want. If we play our best and we prepare, then I think we can be competitive against a lot of those teams. People are excited that Nebraska is coming into the league and that should make the Big Ten even better top to bottom.”

“No matter if you’re a goalkeeper, defender, midfielder or forward we need people that can do each of those things well and protect the goal and score in Big Ten games,” Rainey said. “We’ve got a mixture with our preseason where we are going to be playing a couple of major conference teams in Iowa State and DePaul that we are excited to play and that will be like our opponents in the Big Ten. We also have some new opponents that we haven’t played in the last couple years. Southwest Missouri State comes in, Western Illinois, and we have a trip out to Washington, D.C., where everyone is excited to play George Washington and American. All of those games, heading into the Big Ten, our goal should be to play at a pace and a speed that can be effective not only in those games but also can prepare us for our Big Ten season.”
Iowa hosts Illinois on Sept. 18 to begin the Big Ten schedule before traveling to Indiana and Purdue. The Hawkeyes conclude the conference season with a home game against Nebraska (Oct. 23) and a road game at Wisconsin (Oct. 29).

I chose the University of Iowa because of the academic reputation of their business school. The location was appealing and reminded me of my hometown. After meeting Coach Rainey, and speaking with the soccer staff members and team, I was convinced this was the right place for me.
RACHEL BLAKESLEY - Senior - Peoria, IL
I chose Iowa because it had everything I was looking for. The soccer team and coaches were one big deciding factor. The University of Iowa has my major, athletic training, which was another determining factor. I also love Iowa City; it is a beautiful, small city.
EMILY MORAN - Senior - Kent, OH
W H Y I O WA ?
I chose Iowa because the school had a full pharmacy program. I also love the campus and how it is landscaped. Lastly, the group of girls on the team that I met were awesome and I would love to be apart of the team!
ALYSSA COSNEK - Senior - Aliquippa, PA
“I chose Iowa because of the people and the structure of the school. I have not encountered anyone that is not willing to help when there is a problem. The environment of the school allows me to know that I will grow immensely. Picking this school over any other was easy because of the homelike feeling given off by the coaches and teammates. I am positive that my game will be at its peak when I leave Iowa due to the dedication that the coaching staff has to the girls. That is probably my number one reason for becoming a Hawkeye.
“In addition to the amazing campus and the great people I met on campus, I loved the soccer program and the many opportunities for the future. I have no idea what I want to study, but Iowa offers so many resources to help me figure it out.
SARAH LANGLAS - Senior - Wheaton, IL
I chose Iowa because it was just far enough away from home. I liked the coaching staff, the campus layout, and the current girls on the team. Also, I’ve been a lifelong Hawkeye fan, along with the rest of my family.

G A R Y B A R TA B I O GARY BARTA
AT H L E T I C D I R E C T O R
Gary Barta is in his sixth year as director of athletics at the University of Iowa – and his 25th year in athletics administration – riding a wave of momentum. Cause for that energy is the fact the Hawkeyes enjoyed record-setting performances in the classroom and on the playing field, the completion of the second-largest construction project in the history of intercollegiate athletics at the UI, and the breaking of ground on a new indoor practice facility for the Hawkeye football program. With respect to the UI academic momentum, Barta expects the graduation rates for student-athletes made public this fall to be among the highest ever achieved at the UI. Those numbers are also expected to compare favorably with the UI’s Big Ten Conference and national peers in the high profile sports of football, and men’s and women’s basketball. In May, the NCAA confirmed that all 24 of Iowa’s teams exceeded the Academic Progress Rate (APR) benchmark for the third straight year and honored a school-record four UI teams – men’s cross country, softball, men’s tennis and women’s tennis – that ranked in the top 10 percent of their sport, based on their most-recent multi-year APR. Competitively, the UI set a school record with 510 points scored in the 2011 Learfield Directors’ Cup. This success was driven in great measure by another successful season for the UI football team – which won a record third straight bowl game, 27-24, over Missouri in the Insight Bowl; a third-place finish at the NCAA championships by Iowa’s wrestling program; a fourth straight appearance in the NCAA postseason by the women’s basketball program; strong performances by the UI’s men’s and women’s track and field teams; and a school-record 10th place finish by the UI men’s golf team. The highlight of the UI’s year in Big Ten Conference competition was the first league title in men’s track and field in 44 years. Larry Wieczorek’s squad climbed to the top of the podium by dominating the final day of competition on the UI’s Cretzmeyer Track. An All-American distance runner as a student-athlete at the UI, Wieczorek was named the Big Ten Track and Field Coach of the Year in recognition of his team’s performance and for qualifying no fewer than 33 male and female student-athletes for postseason competition.
In addition to the competitive success the Hawkeyes recorded in 2010-11, the UI also experienced tremendous success at the turnstiles. Iowa entered the 2010 home football season with all seven home games sold out. The UI will do the same in 2011 and boasts waiting lists for not only season tickets to the home games of Kirk Ferentz’s squad, but also the premium seating options available inside the Paul W. Brechler Press Box at Kinnick Stadium. Attendance at home games of first-year men’s basketball coach Fran McCaffery soared 23 percent – the fifth-highest increase by percentage in the country and the largest by a team that did not advance to postseason play. Attendance at women’s basketball games increased by almost 60 percent. Iowa ended the year ranked 13th – the program’s highest finish in more than a decade. As always, success at the gate provides Barta the financial resources to meet the mandate of Iowa’s institutional leadership: Operate the intercollegiate athletics program with integrity, with a commitment to academic excellence, and without any support from tax dollars, i.e. be “self-sustaining.” Inherent in Barta’s charge is to provide the more than 650 student-athletes who compete in the 24 intercollegiate athletics programs at the UI the best opportunity for success, including training and competition facilities that compare favorably or exceed those offered by comparable institutions. The 2010-11 season marked the first for the men’s and women’s swimming and diving teams in the UI’s $69 million Campus Recreation and Wellness Center. In late summer 2011, the UI completed a $47 million revitalization of Carver-Hawkeye Arena. That project includes 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. The Carver project includes the installation of a statue of Gable at the facility’s main entrance. That project will be completed in time for thousands of fans of the sport of wrestling to enjoy when the UI stages the 2012 USA Wrestling Olympic Team Trials in April 2012 – an event that represents not only the UI’s commitment to its nationally-respected wrestling program, but Barta’s desire to strike partnerships when success would be mutually beneficial.
The Barta family includes Connie, Madison, Gary and Luke. PA G E 4 6
IOWASOCCER The UI Department of Athletics will break ground on Phase I of a two-phase project for the UI football program in late summer 2011. Phase I includes the construction of a new indoor practice facility; Phase II includes construction of all football operations areas including locker rooms, team meeting rooms, athletic medical training space, video operations, and coaches offices and meeting rooms. Funded entirely through private support, the project is an important next phase of the master facilities plan for Hawkeye football. It will be constructed adjacent to the Ron and Margaret Kenyon Outdoor Practice Facility and immediately west of Kinnick Stadium.
G A R Y B A R TA B I O In recent years, the department has received a long list of commitments to assist in capital projects and scholarship support, including gifts of $5 million each from long-time friends of the UI – Dale and Marilyn Howard, Bruce Rastetter and Richard O. Jacobson. 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 and has generated more than $20 million of philanthropic and corporate sponsorship support for the CarverHawkeye Arena project.
Barta has also received permission form the State of Iowa Board of Regents to construct a new practice facility for the men’s and women’s golf programs. The facility will be located on the southern edge of the UI’s award-winning Finkbine Golf Course and will begin construction as soon as the funding required is secured from friends and fans of the Iowa Hawkeyes and the UI’s golf programs.
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.
Barta’s involvement in the UI campus community extends beyond intercollegiate athletics. 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.
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.
Barta also represents the UI and the Hawkeyes at the conference and national level. During his first five 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 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.
His responsibilities at Washington expanded over time to include hiring of coaching and administrative staff and coordinating the schedule for the Huskies men’s basketball program. 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 (13) and a daughter, Madison (11). He was born Sept. 4, 1963, in Minneapolis.
Another favorite saying of his 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 has remained a primary focus during his tenure at Iowa, where private support for the Hawkeyes continues to flourish despite a challenging economy.

IOWASOCCER IOWA RANKS AMONG BIG TEN LEADERS
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 2010-11. Sixty-four Hawkeyes earned all-conference accolades, while 44 were recognized as All-Americans. Hawkeye student-athletes excelled in the classroom as well with 172 earning Academic All-Big Ten laurels. Thirty-four Hawkeyes were honored by the Big Ten Conference with the Distinguished Scholar Award. The graduation rate of Iowa’s student-athletes has improved in each of the past 10 years and has consistently ranked above the graduation rate of all UI students. Iowa’s men’s cross country, men’s and women’s tennis, and softball teams were recognized by the NCAA for their high academic marks. The four teams earned Public Recognition Awards, based on their most recent multi-year Academic Progress Rates. The UI closed the 2010-11 athletics year with a bang, establishing a school record in total points scored in the annual Learfield Sports Directors’ Cup. The Hawkeyes accumulated 510 points in the competition that awards points based on each institution’s finish in national championship competition in up to 20 total sports (10 women’s and 10 men’s). Several new projects have come to completion on the Iowa campus. Some of the latest additions to the UI campus include the completion of the new Campus Recreation and Wellness Center, which houses the swimming and diving teams, and the state-of-the-art $7 million rowing boathouse. In addition to the brand new swimming and rowing facilities, the Roy G. Karro Athletics Hall of Fame and Visitors Center, the Russell and Ann Gerdin Athletic Learning Center and the Hawkeye Tennis and Recreation Center completed construction in recent years. Furthermore, the UI completed a $47 million Carver-Hawkeye Arena renovation project in the summer of 2011. Kinnick Stadium received a major upgrade and renovation that was completed just prior to the 2006 season. The $89 million project included the replacing of the south end zone stands and building of a four-level press box that houses 47 guest suites. New scoreboards, video walls, concession stands and rest rooms were also part of the project.
A T O TA L P R O G R A M IOWA FOOTBALL Iowa football continued its stellar play, finishing in the upper division of the Big Ten for the ninth time in the last 10 years. The Hawkeyes capped their season with a thrilling 27-24 come-from-behind victory over Missouri in the Insight Bowl. The win was Iowa’s third straight bowl victory, a school record. IOWA WOMEN’S BASKETBALL The women’s basketball team had another outstanding season, finishing third in the league and advancing to the NCAA Tournament. Lisa Bluder, who is a three-time Big Ten Coach of the Year and two-time Regional Coach of the Year, coached Kachine Alexander and Jaime Printy to honorable mention All-America status.

Once the state capital, Iowa City is considered one of the truly great college towns in America. The city swells with excitement on game day when nearly 16,000 Hawkeye fans from across the state and Midwest converge on Carver-Hawkeye Arena to cheer the Hawkeyes to another victory. Iowa City’s downtown area is alive and thriving. Restaurants, shops and sidewalk cafes face onto pedestrian malls full of people watchers, street entertainers and food vendors. Attractive in size and friendliness, Iowa City is big in the sense that it offers all the advantages and conveniences of much larger metropolitan areas like summer and permanent employment opportunities, live entertainment and concerts, fine “Iowa City is unlike any other place in the state, both because dining and shopping, industry and commerce. of its regional beauty and because of its independent, serendipitous spirit. Iowa City is located in the heart of eastern Iowa, within easy driving distance of several major Midwestern cities including the state capital, Des Moines, as well as Chicago, St. Louis, Kansas City, Minneapolis and Milwaukee.
There’s nothing like feeling the crisp air as one tours the Big Ten campus, just as there’s no other feeling like walking the shores along Lake MacBride, north of town. This is an ideal location for a weekend trip filled with sights, sounds, shopping and plenty of activities on any given weekend.” If there is a star in Iowa, Iowa City is it.” DES MOINES SUNDAY REGISTER PA PA GG E E5 0 1

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.
