GWU PRESIDENT

Dr. A. Frank Bonner, in his sixth year as the president of Gardner-Webb University, took office on May 2, 2005, and was inaugurated on April 6, 2006. Bonner is no stranger to Gardner-Webb, having been a part of the University family since 1987. A native of Greenville, S.C., Bonner graduated from Furman University in 1969, has a M.A. degree from the University of Georgia and earned a Ph.D. from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. He was a faculty member and Associate Dean at Anderson College in Anderson, S.C., prior to beginning his career in Boiling Springs as Vice President for Academic Affairs. In 1992, Bonner was promoted to provost and senior vice president at Gardner-Webb, a post he held until assuming his current role in 2005. After a comprehensive, national search for the university’s new president, chairman of the presidential search committee and the board of trustees, Frank Beam, said, “We came to the conclusion that we had the most qualified candidate right here at the university.” Bonner succeeded Dr. Frank Campbell, who served Gardner-Webb University as president from October, 2002 until June, 2005. Active in civic life and in the community, Bonner has served on the boards of the United Way, the YMCA, and Communities in Schools, and he serves on the Cleveland County Sports Commission. He is a past chairman of the Cleveland County Chamber, a past president of the Shelby Rotary Club, and a Sunday School teacher and deacon at First Baptist Church in Shelby. Bonner is also a retired Colonel in the U.S. Army Reserve. During Bonner’s time as provost, Gardner-Webb emerged as a vibrant institution for higher learning, officially moving from college to university in 1993. The institution’s academic reputation has steadily improved during Bonner’s time in Boiling Springs, with an outstanding faculty and consistently evolving curriculum. Bonner is married to the former Florence “Flossie” Black of Chester, S.C., also a graduate of Furman University. They are parents of two adult daughters and five grandchildren.

GWU V.P. FOR ATHLETICS

Gardner-Webb alumnus Chuck Burch is in his 14th year as Vice President for Athletics and his 29th year in athletics administration. The Charlotte, N.C., native spearheaded the Bulldogs move into Division I athletics, which resulted in Gardner-Webb’s addition to the Big South Conference as an associate member for football in 2001, and GWU’s move to the Big South as a full member – which became official on July 1, 2008. Burch oversees all athletic operations at Gardner-Webb, including management and supervision of athletic programs, facilities and budgets. During his career at GWU, Burch has overseen across-the-board improvements in facilities and the addition of five new sports since arriving in 1997. A sixth sport, men’s swimming was added in 2007-08. Burch is also responsible for continued improvements in the quality and quantity of Gardner-Webb’s athletics staff – with a number of full-time positions created to assist and enhance the entire department. GWU athletics has seen a steady increase in academic performance since Burch’s arrival, and the department has posted a combined GPA above 3.0 in each of the last two academic years. Gardner-Webb’s final year in the Atlantic Sun Conference was fruitful, with several notable wins and the usual high number of strong academic performances by the Bulldogs’ student-athletes. GWU enjoyed its most successful athletics year as a Division I member in 2006-07. Gardner-Webb won its first Atlantic Sun Conference Academic Championship, unseating Belmont University for the title. The Bulldogs also finished third in the men’s and women’s combined sports standings – a very impressive effort in the race for the inaugural Bill Bibb Trophy. Gardner-Webb’s men’s soccer team captured the imagination of faces across Cleveland County during its run to the 2006 A-Sun Championship and the NCAA Tournament second round. National qualifiers in Track & Field, swimming and wrestling highlighted competitive success for the Bulldogs in 2006-2007. Burch, a graduate of Independence (N.C.) High in Charlotte, and former member of Gardner-Webb’s football team, spent 1991-1997 as Director of Athletics at Liberty (Va.) University, and was instrumental in a successful and well run department in Lynchburg as well. He also served Liberty as Associate Director of Athletics (1988-1990), Assistant Director of Athletics (1984-1988), Sports Information Director (1986-1988) and Assistant Director of Sports Information (1982-1984). After graduating from Gardner-Webb in 1979 with a bachelor’s degree in Social Science, Burch, 52, earned his master’s degree from Eastern Kentucky University in 1982. His wife, Franki, holds a Ph.D. in Health Education from the University of Virginia, and currently serves as the Dean of the Graduate School as well as a professer in the Physical Education Wellness and Sports Studies Department. The couple has three children, Travis, a recent graduate of Furman University, Danielle, a junior soccer player at Brevard (N.C.) College and Amy (16). Gardner-Webb Runnin’ Bulldogs

GWU ATHLETIC TRAINING An integral part of the entire Gardner-Webb University athletics program, the Athletic Training Program emphasizes the importance of wellness in the teams’ pursuit of success. Under the supervision of Kevin Jones, ATC, and the rest of the Athletic Training faculty and staff, athletic training students complete part of their clinical education with the University’s 21 varsity sports. Jones and his staff work toward the prevention, treatment and rehabilitation of athletic injuries. The athletic training students at GWU are fortunate to have a faculty and staff of nine certified athletic trainers and a cooperative intercollegiate athletics staff to enhance their learning experience. The clinical education that is conducted while serving the student-athletes at Gardner-Webb University allows for comprehensive medical care in a learning environment. The athletic training educational program recently completed its full accreditation by CAAHEP, marking an exciting moment in the program’s history. Athletic training students are able to pursue a B.S. in Athletic Training through the Department of Physical Education and Sport Studies. Upon graduation, athletic training students must complete a three-part examination conducted by the National Athletic Trainer’s Association’s Board of Certification to become Certified Athletic Trainers (ATC). One of the most respected academic majors on campus, the Gardner-Webb Athletic Training educational program boasts a growing enrollment and provides students with first-class instruction and practical experience in their chosen field of study. Currently, Gardner-Webb graduates are working with NFL teams, colleges and universities, high schools and physical therapy clinics. After their academic careers at Gardner-Webb, many students also choose to seek graduate assistant positions at colleges and universities around the nation.

GWU STRENGTH & CONDITIONING GWU STRENGTH AND CONDITIONING PHILOSOPHY In today’s world of collegiate athletics, the strength and conditioning program has become one of the most vital aspects in the development of the complete student-athlete. The mission and philosophy of the Gardner-Webb University Strength and Conditioning Program is based on several key elements of development. We are committed to: * Furthering the commitment to excellence * Enhancing athleticism * Development of: Strength, Power, SAQ (speed/agility/quickness), Mobility/Flexibility, Energy System Training, Mental Toughness * Building team unity and self discipline * Injury prevention training * Promoting proper nutrition along with rest and recovery * Developing a strong work ethic that the student-athlete takes with them in life after graduation When designing the Gardner-Webb Strength and Conditioning Program, the strength staff incorporates training the total body utilizing various proven training techniques. These techniques range from traditional lifting to training “outside the box”. In order to keep the athlete from adapting to the same training stimulus, causing a plateau effect, the program is changed every 4-6 weeks. The strength staff stays current in their profession in order to provide the best program for the student-athlete to improve their performance and each team receives a program that is designed to strengthen the movements involved in their particular sport. The strength staff works closely with the athletic training staff in the injury rehab process with the joint goal of getting the studentathlete back into competition. At the foundation of the Gardner-Webb University Strength Staff philosophy lays the desire to constantly improve the program for our student-athletes and athletic teams.

PAUL PORTER ARENA

The home of the Runnin’ Bulldogs, 3,500-seat Paul Porter Arena is one of the most intimidating venues in the Big South Conference - with fan support rattling the rafters regularly. Located inside the Lutz-Yelton Convocation Center, Paul Porter Arena saw the Runnin’ Bulldogs post a school-record 14-2 mark at home in the 2009-10 season. Gardner-Webb’s home court advantage is helped tremendously by “The Dawg Pound,” which is a student group that provides plenty of noise and enthusiasm on game nights.

BIG SOUTH CONFERENCE HISTORY Since its founding in 1983, the Big South Conference has matured into a competitive leader in college athletics, actively pursuing excellence on the field of play and in the classroom. The League’s growing presence as an NCAA Division I athletic conference is evident by athletic accomplishments on the national stage, innovative marketing and media partnerships, increased television packages, and quality athletic competition while intentionally fostering the academic, personal, social, athletic and leadership development of each student-athlete. This has evolved into the Conference’s mission of “Developing Leaders Through Athletics.” The Big South Conference was formed on August 21, 1983, when Charleston Southern (then Baptist College) Athletic Director Howard Bagwell and Augusta President George Christenberry began recruiting members into the Big South, receiving initial commitments from Augusta, Charleston Southern, Campbell, Coastal Carolina and Winthrop. One month later, Dr. Edward M. Singleton was selected as the League’s first Commissioner and continued to solicit new members. His efforts led to the additions of Armstrong State, Radford and UNC Asheville, giving the Big South more than the required six members to constitute an official conference. The Big South’s first year of competition was in the Fall of 1984, and in September 1986, the Big South Conference was granted full-fledged NCAA Division I status. During its infancy and prior to securing automatic bids to NCAA Championships, the Big South made early strides in earning at-large berths in several national postseason events, including volleyball, women’s basketball and women’s golf. In 1989, George F. “Buddy” Sasser replaced the retiring Dr. Singleton as Commissioner, and in 1990, the League received its first automatic bid – receiving an automatic qualifier to the NCAA Baseball Championship. Under Sasser’s seven years of leadership, the Conference implemented its public relations and compliance programs, and introduced its first-ever men’s basketball television package, featuring the Big South competing among some of the finest teams in the nation. In August 1996, Kyle B. Kallander replaced Sasser as the League’s third Commissioner, and in his 13 years at the helm of the Big South, Kallander has been instrumental in aggressively promoting the Conference to new levels. The Conference has enjoyed record levels in marketing revenue during the past several years, he has brought television coverage to Big South women’s basketball, baseball and softball for the first time in Conference history, as well as increased national television exposure to the League as a whole through aggressive and unique television packages. Under Kallander’s leadership, the Big South developed and initiated its first long-range strategic plan, re-affirming the League’s vision as a distinctive athletic Conference committed to the quality of institutional life through athletic competition. He also spearheaded the efforts to add football as a championship sport, which came to fruition in 2002, and has solidified Conference membership with the additions of High Point, Gardner-Webb and Presbyterian, and in 201112, the return of charter member Campbell University. Kallander’s long range vision has also included technological advancements, as the Conference introduced its first live event video streaming in 2005 and has since expanded its video offerings to more than 600 events annually through a partnership with the member institutions, as well as the creation of several online and social media platforms. In the last 15 years, the Big South Conference has experienced monumental growth and success in nearly every sport. During this time, the Conference has had two individual National Champions, more than 200 All-Americans, has reached the “Sweet 16” in men’s soccer, women’s basketball and baseball, has received national Top 25 rankings in men’s soccer, men’s basketball, women’s basketball, baseball, men’s outdoor track & field, and men’s golf, had an individual selected to play in the NCAA Singles Championship four times in addition to the first men’s tennis doubles at-large selection, had the No. 1 ranked men’s golfer in the country, has had the nation’s top scoring men’s basketball team three consecutive years as well as the national men’s basketball scoring leader twice, received an at-large playoff berth in the Football Championship Subdivision in 2006, and had an institution finish fifth in the NCAA Men’s Golf Championships – the Conference’s highest-ever team finish in an NCAA event. In 2006-07 alone, the Big South was the only Conference nationwide to have an at-large participant in the football playoffs (Coastal Carolina), a team in the Second Round of the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament (Winthrop) and a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Baseball Regionals (Coastal Carolina). In fact, Coastal Carolina’s baseball program has been a No. 1 seed three out of the last five years, while its FCS playoff berth in 2006 came in just the fifth-year of the Big South’s football existence. The Conference’s tagline, “Developing Leaders Through Athletics” was unveiled in 2008-09 in conjunction with the Conference’s 25th Anniversary. The League also honored its heritage with the Top 25 “Best of the Best” moments in League history from 1983-2008, with Liberty University’s 10-year women’s basketball championship run from 1996-2007 being crowned the No. 1 moment in the Big South’s first 25 years. The Conference’s on-field accomplishments have been duplicated in the classroom. Annually, more than 40 percent of Conference student-athletes are named to the Big South’s Presidential Honor Roll for maintaining a cumulative 3.0 grade-point average, and the League has had more than 95 Academic All-Americans in its quarter-century of existence.

HEAD COACH

Head Coach Seventh Season Indiana State ‘81 2009-10 Big South Coach of the Year

Head Coach Rick Reeves, a four time Big South Coach of the Year, is in his seventh season at the helm of the Gardner-Webb University Lady Bulldog basketball program. Reeves came to Boiling Springs after spending five seasons as the head women’s coach at Southern Miss. Reeves, who has a tremendous history of rebuilding Division I programs during his 25 years of collegiate coaching, has taken his teams to the postseason five times at the Division I level - including taking GWU to its first-ever postseason appearance in the WNIT in 2009-10 and three-straight trips to the NCAA Tournament at Liberty University (1997-1999). Over the last four seasons, Reeves has arguably done his best coaching jobs, as GWU has continued to shatter records and increase its win total each and every year. The 2009-10 Gardner-Webb’s women’s basketball season was one for the ages, as the Lady Bulldogs shattered records, set new marks and put the program on a level that it had never reached before. Gardner-Webb went 28-5 overall and 15-1 in conference play to win the Big South Conference Regular Season Title, the program’s first regular season conference title in its 35-year history. The Lady Bulldogs 28 wins set a new record for the most victories in a single season by a GWU women’s basketball team in its history and ties the most wins for a Big South Conference team in the history of the Big South. The Lady Bulldogs 28 win season marks the first time since 1995-96 that the women’s basketball team has had 20 or more wins and the most wins since the 1989-90 team posted 23 wins, while its season-high 16-game winning streak is the longest in the program’s NCAA Division I history. Gardner-Webb went a perfect 8-0 on the road in conference play and posted an overall record of 14-2 away from Paul Porter Arena, including wins at Purdue, at Liberty, at Coastal Carolina and at Charleston Southern, all firsts. The Lady Bulldogs tallied a 14-2 record at home with the 14 home wins setting a new GWU record for a single season, while its 13 non-conference wins surpasses its previous record of 11 wins in its DI history. Gardner-Webb also received some national attention, as the Lady Bulldogs received votes in the ESPN/USA Today Top-25 Coaches Poll 15 weeks out of the season, receiving as many as 15 votes on three different occasions. Senior Margaret Roundtree climbed into GWU history this season, as she became the 14th member of the 1,000 point club and became GWU’s Division I all-time leading scorer with 1,337 points in her career, which puts her in sixth-place on GWU’s all-time career scoring list. Roundtree also became Gardner-Webb’s Division I leader in made field goals, finishing her career with 534 career made field goals. Junior guard Dominique Hudson became Gardner-Webb’s NCAA Division I leader in career assists this season, as she has now tallied 385

2009-10 Big South Regular Season Champions


HEAD COACH dimes over her three years at GWU. Gardner-Webb’s Roundtree was named the Big South Player of the Year, while head coach Rick Reeves was tabbed the Big South Coach of the Year for the fourth time in his career and his first at GWU. Dominique Hudson joined Roundtree on the First-Team All-Conference Team, as both were also named to the All-Tournament Team for the second consecutive year. Junior guard Courtney Epps earned a spot on the Second-Team All-Conference Team, while senior Meranda Burnett was named to the Academic All-Conference Team. With the great season, the Lady Bulldogs won the program’s 400th game, while Coach Reeves moved to third-place in the Big South Conference Wins list. In 2008-09, the Lady Bulldogs at the time set a new bar for women’s basketball at Gardner-Webb in only its first year as members of the Big South Conference. Coach Reeves’ squad, which did not have a single senior on the roster, advanced all the way to the Big South Championship title game in only its first year in the League. The 2008-09 season was a special one for not only Coach Reeves, but for the Lady Bulldogs women’s basketball program in a number of different ways. The 17 wins at the time was the most wins in one season that the women’s basketball program had totaled since moving to the NCAA Division I in 2000-01. Gardner-Webb won 11 home games, the most home wins in one season since moving to the NCAA Division I, and posted a nine-game home winning streak, the longest in the program’s history. The historical 2008-09 season doesn’t stop there, as in the Lady Bulldogs first home game of the season GWU recorded the program’s largest margin of victory in the 48-point win over UVA-Wise and broke three school records in the process. GWU won its first ever Big South Conference game on January 17, defeating Charleston Southern 60-50 at home. The Bulldogs also posted its first ever win over Charleston Southern (Jan. 17) and first ever Division I win over Presbyterian (Jan. 26). In 2008-09 Gardner-Webb posted an 8-5 non-conference record, the first time that a GWU team had posted a winning non-conference record since moving to NCAA Division I. The eight non-conference wins were the most non-conference wins in Division I history at the time. GWU’s road win over Winthrop on February 23, was the largest come from behind victory in its history, as the Lady Bulldogs erased a 15 point second half deficit to win 65-62. Individual history was made in 2008-09, as Head Coach Rick Reeves’ recorded his 70th career Big South Conference win with the win over UNC Asheville on February 16. Junior Margaret Roundtree surpassed the 500-rebound plateau in the same game, a win over UNC Asheville, becoming only the fourth player to surpass 500 rebounds in GWU’s Division I history. During the 2007-2008 year, Reeves had one of the youngest Division I programs in the NCAA - having just one senior while everyone else was a freshman or sophomore. However, Reeves led the young Lady Bulldogs to their highest seed ever in the A-Sun Championship - a No. 3. seed. Reeves guided the team to a .500 mark in league play while also amassing a then school-record six consecutive wins during the year. Despite a tough non-conference slate, Reeves managed to produce the most wins in the Division I era prior to the start of the conference schedule. Yet perhaps his best coaching job at GWU was during the 20062007 season. Picked to finish second in the league in the preseason poll, the squad lost two starters and its sixth man. However, Reeves guided the team to a 10-8 A-Sun mark, earning the No. 4 seed in the tournament where the team advanced to the semifinals for the second consecutive season. The Lady Bulldogs also posted their best home record in Division I history at that time, garnering a 10-2 mark in Paul Porter Arena. On Feb. 15, a 61-47 victory over Stetson provided Reeves

with his 300th career win. During his second season with the Bulldogs, Reeves guided his team to a 14-win season, bettering his first-year record at Gardner-Webb by five wins. By finishing 11-9 in conference play, the Bulldogs earned a No. 4 seed in the Atlantic Sun Tournament. After knocking off Campbell in the quarterfinals, Reeves led his team past No. 1 seed Belmont in the semifinals before falling to the No. 2 seed in the championship game. In his first year as the head coach at Gardner-Webb, Reeves guided his squad to a nine-win season, a mark that proved to be four wins more than GWU posted in each of the previous two seasons. Under his tutelage, the Lady Bulldogs have shown steady improvement as a team as well as on an individual basis. Heading into the 2005-06 campaign senior Sequenta Blackman and junior Shameka Smith were voted onto the preseason All-Atlantic Sun Team. It marked the first time that a GWU player had been selected for such a preseason honor. The two were also the only set of teammates to make the list. That feat was repeated once more in 2009-10, as GWU teammates Margaret Roundtree and Dominique Hudson were each voted onto the Big South preseason all-conference team, making it the second time in GWU’s women’s basketball Division I history that two Lady Bulldogs have received preseason all-conference recognition in the same season. Off the court, the Bulldogs worked just as hard as they did on the court. Reeves and his staff placed six student-athletes on the Atlantic Sun All-Academic Team after his first year, 11 on the team during the 2005-06 season and six in 2007-08. The Lady Bulldogs also had redshirt-junior Laura Povilonyte earn a spot on the Big South Conference All-Academic Team in 2008-09 and had eight others named to the Big South Presidential Honor Roll. In 2009-10 Meranda Burnett was named to the Big South Conference All-Academic Team, while six total Lady Bulldogs were named to the Big South Presidential Honor Roll. As a testament to Reeves’ positive influence as a coach on the collegiate level, 80 former players have gone into the coaching ranks following graduation - with those players on coaching staffs in the SEC, Big South, Conference USA, Missouri Valley, MAC and Southern Conference, among others. Prior to his arrival at Southern Miss, Reeves was named Big South Conference Coach of the Year three times and State Coach of the Year once during his time directing the Lady Flames’ program in Lynchburg, Va. In 1997-98, he directed Liberty to an amazing 28-0 record heading into the NCAA Tournament - including a Big South Tournament title and regular season championship. That team finished with a 28-1 mark, with the lone loss coming at the hands of eventual national champion Tennessee in the NCAA first round. Liberty posted a phenomenal 71-16 combined record during Reeves’ final three seasons at the school, with three-straight trips to the NCAA’s Big Dance. Reeves, a 1981 graduate of Indiana State University, earned a master’s degree from Western Kentucky in 1985. He landed his first collegiate head coaching position at Brescia (Ky.) College in 1985, and was the school’s first head women’s basketball coach, starting the program from scratch with 15 freshmen on his roster. From there Reeves went to Cumberland (Tenn.) University in 1986, and led the team to three top-20 finishes at the NAIA level before moving on to an assistant’s position at the University of Florida in 1989-90. Reeves is married to the former Ramona Parnell of Columbia, Ky. The couple has two daughters, Kim Clark, who is a former GWU assistant coach and currently is an assistant coach at MTSU, and Krystal Reeves-Evans, who the Associate Head Coach under Reeves at GWU. The couple also has four granddaughters in Grace (7), Kalyn (3), Braylee (1) and Britton (6 months).

Coming off a year in which the Runnin’ Bulldogs set a record for wins with 28, home wins with 14, conference wins with 15, a program high winning streak of 16 games and its first ever postseason appearance in its NCAA Division I history with its WNIT bid, the 2010-11 season will be perhaps the toughest challenge yet for the women’s basketball team as Coach Reeves squad will be the hunted rather than the hunters. Along with the high expectations has come the preseason hype, as despite losing four players due to graduation from a year ago, including 2010 Big South Player of the Year Margaret Roundtree and leading scorer Courtney Epps, the Runnin’ Bulldogs were selected to finish second in the 2010-11 Big South Conference Preseason Poll, garnering seven first-place votes. Gardner-Webb was also ranked 23rd overall in the Inaugural CollegeInsider.com Preseason Women’s Mid-Major Top-25 Poll and received three votes in the USA Today/ESPN Division I Top-25 Preseason Coaches’ Poll. Coach Rick Reeves will look to a core group of seniors to help guide GWU through the 2010-11 season, as the Runnin’ Bulldogs return seniors Dominique Hudson, Monique Hudson, LaTroya Pope and Sandra Vaitkute. Along with the seniors, Gardner-Webb will look to handful of returners and a half-dozen newcomers to answer the high expectations and continue to push the women’s basketball program to new heights. GUARDS The 2010-11 Runnin’ Bulldog squad starts in the backcourt, as preseason all-conference selection Dominique Hudson returns to lead a deep and very talented guard core for Coach Reeves and his staff. Dominique Hudson, who was named to the Big South Preseason All-Conference Team for the second straight season, played a vital role in GWU’s success last season, averaging 11.8 points, 4.7 assists and 3.0 rebounds per game all while running the offense from the point guard position. Dominique Hudson will look to continue to add to her assist totals, where she ranks first in the GWU Division I record books for career assists, and is set to become only the 15th player to join the 1,000 point club in the GWU’s women’s basketball history, starting the year only 23 points away with 977 career points. With the early graduation of Epps, starting alongside Dominique Hudson in the backcourt this season will be her twin sister Monique Hudson. Monique Hudson, who was the first player off the bench last year for Coach Reeves’ squad, looks to be in the best shape of her career dating back to her freshman season when she was tabbed the Atlantic Sun Conference Freshman of the Year in 2007-08. The senior guard, who averaged 10.7 points, 4.0 rebounds and 1.7 steals per contest last year, should see more minutes this season and will be asked to take on more of a leadership role as the season progresses. Also returning in the backcourt for GWU this season is sophomore Brianna Dillard who saw action in all 33 games last season as a true freshman. Dillard will see more minutes this season, as Coach Reeves is looking for the 5-8 guard to be able to use her versatility on both ends of the floor, which also allows her to play both guard positions as well as the small forward spot. Depth at the guard position will come from a trio of newcomers in freshmen Jasmine Dale, Tabby Koerner and Edina Musa. Dale is a guard that can really fill up the basket, as she scored over 1500 points in

2009-10 Big South Regular Season Champions


2010-11 SEASON OUTLOOK her career at LeVergne High School in LeVergne, Tennessee and averaged 20.5 points, 3.5 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 3.1 steals per game her senior season. Koerner is a big guard with a soft touch that will cause match up problems in the backcourt for many teams. Koerner averaged 12.0 points and 10 rebounds per game her senior season at Jay M. Robinson High school in Concord, N.C. and will look to use her high basketball IQ to get some minutes this season. Musa is a guard with a nice shot and a shoot first mentality as she bounced back from an injury her junior year to average 15 points, 10 rebounds and six steals per game during her senior season. FORWARDS Depth is not an issue for Coach Reeves at the forward position, as several different players can and will see time at both forward spots in 2010-11. While one of the forward starting spots is up for grabs, Pope, who started in 25 games last season and played significant minutes in all 33 contests for GWU, locks down the other forward spot. Pope, who is a defensive specialist for GWU, averaged 5.4 points, 5.9 rebounds and 1.2 steals per contest last season, most of it coming while guarding the other team’s leading scorer. This season, Pope, who has 82 career blocks and 443 career rebounds, will again be the leader on the defensive side of the court for Coach Reeves’ squad in her senior campaign. Redshirt-freshman Kim McKenney, who missed last season due to an injury, and junior transfer Sierra Little will also see time at the two forward positions in 2010-11. McKenney, who was a highly touted freshman last season before suffering a season ending injury in the preseason, is a 5-11 forward that can step out beyond the three-point line as well as put the ball on the floor with her quick feet. Little, who transferred from Old Dominion in January last season, is a 6-2 post player that will cause problems with her strength down low on the post on both ends of the floor as well as in the rebounding department. Also at the forward spot, Coach Reeves has Kendra Brown, a 6-3 freshman from Crab Orchard, Kentucky and sophomore returners Erin Boggan and Cierra Harris. Brown, who was a McDonald’s All-America honorable mention last season, was a Kentucky State All-Star selection her senior season where she averaged 15 points, seven rebounds and four blocks per game. Both Boggan and Harris saw limited time last season during their freshmen campaigns, however, both have come back stronger and with a better understanding of the GWU offense and the speed of the intercollegiate game. CENTERS The Runnin’ Bulldogs did lose some experience with the loss of Sherika McLean, however, the center spot has never been deeper than this season for Coach Reeves and his staff, highlighted by redshirt-senior Sandra Vaitkute. Vaitkute had a break out season a year ago, where she averaged 8.2 points and 6.1 rebounds per game, while swatting away 61 shot attempts on the season. Vaitkute posted a team-high five doubledoubles last season and was tops on the team in field goal percentage, shooting 48 percent from the floor on the year. With the departure of Roundtree due to graduation, look for the 6-6 Vaitkute to be more aggressive down low in the paint on both ends of the floor this season. Also returning at the center position is junior Breynna Winkler who played in 22 contests last season as a sophomore, hauling in over 27 rebounds in limited minutes. Winkler has waited patiently for her playing time behind McLean, Roundtree and Vaitkute and is looking to earn herself more playing time this season

2010-11 SEASON OUTLOOK with her aggressive mentality and ability to rebound on both ends of the floor. Joining Vaitkute and Winkler at the center spot is 6-2 freshman Catrina Green from Western Guilford High School in Greensboro, N.C. Green, who averaged 17 points, 11 rebounds and five blocks per game during her senior season last year, is very comfortable in the post and is capable of scoring with her back to the basket on either side of the lane. SCHEDULE The Runnin’ Bulldogs will once again have a very challenging schedule in 2010-11, as its non-conference schedule includes games against powerhouses such as Oklahoma, North Carolina and Purdue. The non-conference schedule is highlighted by home games versus North Carolina (December 31) and Purdue (December 22), as well as a road game against top-25 Big 12 powerhouse Oklahoma (November 27). Gardner-Webb’s non-conference schedule will also include games at Wofford (November 12), at Appalachian State (November 22) and at both Kennesaw State (December 2) and Longwood (December 5). In fact, GWU has only one home game in the first month of the season, as in addition to taking on Oklahoma as part of the BTP Classic in Norman, Oklahoma, the Runnin’ Bulldogs will also face off with Prairie View (November 26) and Texas-Pan American (November 28) during the three-day tournament over the Thanksgiving holiday break. While, North Carolina and Purdue highlight the non-conference home slate for GWU in 2010-11, the Runnin’ Bulldogs and Paul Porter Arena will also host Montreat (November 15), North Carolina Central (December 7), Converse (December 16), Tennessee Temple (December 29) and Longwood (February 23). The 2010-11 Big South Conference slate for GWU will begin on January 3, as the Runnin’ Bulldogs will host the Buccaneers of Charleston Southern in the two teams’ conference opener in Paul Porter Arena. Coach Reeves’ squad then hits the road for its next four conference bouts traveling to Radford (January 8), Winthrop (January 10), High Point (January 15) and Coastal Carolina (January 17). After the four-game road trip, GWU returns home to host Presbyterian College (January 24), UNC Asheville (January 29) and Liberty (January 31) before hitting the road once more for a three-game road trip at Charleston Southern (February 5), at Liberty (February 12) and at UNC Asheville (February 14). Outside of a road game at Presbyterian College on February 26, the Runnin’ Bulldogs wrap up its regular season slate with five home games over the final three weeks of the season. Gardner-Webb will host Coastal Carolina (February 19), High Point (February 21), Longwood (February 23) and Winthrop (March 4) before wrapping up its regular season slate with a home game versus Radford on March 6. The 2010-11 Auto Parts Big South Women’s Basketball Championship Tournament will once again be held at the Millis Center in High Point, N.C., as the Runnin’ Bulldogs, who have made it to the championship game in each of the last two years, will look to make yet another run for the Big South Conference Tournament Championship on March 11-13.

2009-10 SEASON IN REVIEW

Gardner-Webb Runnin’ Bulldogs

65


2009-10 SEASON IN REVIEW The 2009-10 Gardner-Webb’s women’s basketball season was one for the ages, as the Runnin’ Bulldogs shattered records, set new marks and put the program on a level that it had never reached before. Gardner-Webb went 28-5 overall and 15-1 in conference play to win the Big South Conference Regular Season Title, the program’s first regular season conference title in its 35-year history. The Runnin’ Bulldogs’ 28 wins set a new record for the most victories in a single season by a GWU women’s basketball team in its history and tied the most wins for a Big South Conference team in the history of the Big South. The Runnin’ Bulldogs’ 28 win season marks the first time since 1995-96 that the women’s basketball team posted 20 or more wins and posted the most wins since the 1989-90 team posted 23 wins, while its season-high 16-game winning streak is the longest in the program’s NCAA Division I history. Gardner-Webb went a perfect 8-0 on the road in conference play and posted an overall record of 14-2 away from Paul Porter Arena, including wins at Purdue, at Liberty, at Coastal Carolina and at Charleston Southern, all firsts. The Runnin’ Bulldogs tallied a 14-2 record at home with the 14 home wins setting a new GWU record for a single season, while its 13 non-conference wins surpassed its previous record of 11 wins in its Division I history. Gardner-Webb also received some national attention, as the Runnin’ Bulldogs received votes in the ESPN/USA Today Top-25 Coaches Poll 15 weeks out of the season, receiving as many as 15 votes on three different occasions. Senior Margaret Roundtree climbed into GWU history last season, as she became the 14th member of the 1,000 point club and became GWU’s Division I all-time leading scorer with 1,337 points in her career, which put her in sixth-place on GWU’s all-time career scoring list. Roundtree also became Gardner-Webb’s Division I leader in made field goals, finishing her career with 534 career made field goals. Junior guard Dominique Hudson became Gardner-Webb’s NCAA Division I leader in career assists in 2009-10, as she has now tallied 385 dimes over her three years at GWU. Gardner-Webb’s Roundtree was named the Big South Player of the Year, while head coach Rick Reeves was tabbed the Big South Coach of the Year for the fourth time in his career and his first at GWU. Dominique Hudson joined Roundtree on the First-Team All-Conference Team, as both were also named to the All-Tournament Team and the NCSIAA University Division First-Team All-State Team for the second consecutive year. Junior guard Courtney Epps earned a spot on the Second-Team All-Conference Team, while senior Meranda Burnett was named to the Academic All-Conference Team. With the great season in 2009-10, the Runnin’ Bulldogs won the program’s 400th game, while Coach Reeves moved into third-place on the Big South Conference Wins list. While the Runnin’ Bulldogs saw its last second shot rim off and the Liberty Lady Flames escape with a victory in the Big South Championship Game for the second straight year, Gardner-Webb’s season did not end there, as the GWU earned a spot in the WNIT, its first ever postseason appearance since moving to NCAA Division I in 2000-01. Gardner-Webb’s season did not start out as one to be remembered, as the Runnin’ Bulldogs fell in its season opener at home to the University of Houston 86-64, its worse loss in terms of margin of victory on the year. The loss jumped started the Runnin’ Bulldogs in the right direction; as Gardner-Webb went on to win its next two home games, defeating Winston-Salem State and Limestone College by an average of 26.5 points to move to 2-1 on the year. GWU then hit the road for the first time on November 22, as the Runnin’ Bulldogs held off a feisty North Carolina Central team for a 66-55 win in Durham, N.C. The Runnin’ Bulldogs returned home to pick up a non-conference win over Appalachian State two days later, pushing its record to 4-1 heading into the Thanksgiving break. Over the Thanksgiving break, Coach Reeves’ squad competed in the Lancer Classic hosted by Longwood University in Farmville, Va. GWU won an overtime thriller to kick off the two-day event, outscoring Morehead State 14-4 in the overtime period to pick up the 75-65 win. GWU then turned around to take care of Texas-Pan American with a 74-57 win the following day, to post a 2-0 record at the Lancer Classic and push its winning-streak to six games. The winning ways continued for the Runnin’ Bulldogs, as GWU picked up back-to-back home wins over regional rivals Wofford College and East Carolina, avenging losses from the 2008-09 season. The win over East Carolina would prove to set the tone of the season, as the 57-45 win was not only the Lady Bulldogs first ever win over ECU, but was also its first ever win over a Conference USA team and a team that was receiving votes in the ESPN/USA Today Top-25 National Coaches poll. The challenging slate had only begun, as the Runnin’ Bulldogs carried an eight-game winning streak into Chapel Hill, N.C. on December 13 to take on the No. 11 North Carolina Tar Heels. Gardner-Webb fell behind early in the contest, but battled back to cut the Tar Heels lead to six in the second half only to have the Tar Heels pull away late for the 81-65 win, snapping GWU’s winning streak at eight. However, Gardner-Webb bounced back for a blowout win over Converse College on December 18, to move to 8-2 overall before traveling to

2009-10 Big South Regular Season Champions


2009-10 SEASON IN REVIEW Lafayette, Indiana to take on the Purdue Boilermakers three days later. The Runnin’ Bulldogs were not in awe of the powerhouse that is Purdue, but rather went toe-to-toe with the Boilermakers for the games entirety before Monique Hudson drained a 24-foot-three-pointer with six seconds left to give GWU the 56-55 win, its first ever win over a Big Ten foe. After the Christmas break, Gardner-Webb picked up a 72-58 home win over Longwood to finish out the 2009 calendar year on a three-game winning streak and an 11-2 overall record. The 2010 calendar year brought with it the Big South Conference slate, as Gardner-Webb opened up its conference season with a 70-65 home win over the Liberty Lady Flames, its first-ever win over Liberty. However, the Runnin’ Bulldogs joy was quickly erased, as two days later the Radford Highlanders came to town and upended Gardner-Webb on its home floor, leading the contest from start to finish en route to the 68-53 conference win. Gardner-Webb, now at 12-3 and 1-1 in the Big South, regrouped to run off 16 straight wins, a new GWU Division I record. The winning-streak began with a 70-54 win over UNCA and a 67-56 win over High Point, both home wins in which GWU used big second half scoring runs to seal the conference home wins. The Runnin’ Bulldogs then hit the road for its next three games, as Coach Reeves’ squad held Charleston Southern to 19 percent shooting for the game in a 58-45 road win, went on to defeat Winthrop 85-62 in Rock Hill, S.C. on January 23rd, and then blew out Presbyterian College 80-39 in Clinton, S.C. two days later. After returning to Paul Porter Arena to pick up a 78-33 win over Coastal Carolina on January 30, GWU finished its first trip through the conference season with a 7-1 record and endured probably its toughest stretch of the season, playing four conference road games over an eight day period. The horrendous road trip started with a come from behind 59-56 win over Liberty in Lynchburg, Va. on February 8. Two days later, February 10, the Lady Bulldogs turned around and battled through the snow to make its way to Radford, Va. where Gardner-Webb refused to lose, winning a 84-80 double overtime thriller over the Highlanders on their home floor. The road trip then headed east, as on February 13, GWU picked up a 74-66 win over High Point in the Millis Center in High Point, N.C. Gardner-Webb rounded out its four game road trip with a 74-63 win at UNC Asheville on Monday night, February 15. After a brief break from the four game – eight day road trip, Gardner-Webb rounded out its home slate with wins over PC, Winthrop and Coastal Carolina, giving them a 14-2 home record on the season. With a share of first-place already in hand, the Runnin’ Bulldogs headed to Conway, S.C. to take on Coastal Carolina in the regular season finale. Gardner-Webb overcame foul trouble to come away with a 74-68 win and secure its self sole possession of the regular season Big South Conference Championship and the No. 1 seed heading into the Big South Conference Championship Tournament. Heading into the conference championship tournament, the momentum was clearly on the Runnin’ Bulldogs side, as GWU entered as the No. 1 seed and on a 14-game winning streak. However, from the first game and beyond, Gardner-Webb knew it was going to be in a battle, taking each team’s best shot, as the Runnin’ Bulldogs overcame a halftime deficit to defeat the No. 8 seeded UNC Asheville Bulldogs 77-65 in the opening round on Friday afternoon, March 12. In the semifinals on Saturday, March 13, Gardner-Webb took on the Lady Chanticleers of Coastal Carolina, again falling behind in the first half of play. The resiliency of the Runnin’ Bulldogs allowed GWU to battle back and defeat the No. 5 Coastal Carolina Lady Chants 64-56 to advance to the championship game for the second consecutive year. This time it was Gardner-Webb who was the No. 1 seed, as the Runnin’ Bulldogs took on the No. 2 Liberty Lady Flames in the championship game, a game that appeared to be destined from the two teams’ first match up of the season. The Liberty Lady Flames shot lights out in the first half, as Gardner-Webb again started the game off slow and found themselves, like in its previous two tournament games, trailing at the halftime break. Out of the break Gardner-Webb began to show life on the offensive end, however, Liberty continued its hot offensive hand and pushed its lead to as high as 20 with eleven minutes to go in the contest. The fight in the Runnin’ Bulldogs began to show through, as Gardner-Webb’s heart refused to allow them to roll over and play dead, but rather pushed them into a whole new level as GWU battled back to take the lead with less than three minutes to go in the contest. Yet heartbreak soon set in, as Liberty hit a leaning bank shot with 4.2 seconds left to go up two. With no timeouts left, Gardner-Webb’s Monique Hudson raced the full length of the court and fired off a one headed runner, which banked off the side of the rim, giving the Liberty Lady Flames the 68-66 win. Memories of the year before shown through, as GWU had fallen again on a missed last second shot once again, however, this time it would not end its season, as Coach Reeves’ squad had earned itself a spot in the WNIT, its first postseason appearance in its Division I history. While the record setting season came to an end in late March, when the Runnin’ Bulldogs fell in the first round of the WNIT tournament to the 49ers of Charlotte 74-60, the memories and records of the incredible season will live on in GWU history.

1,000 POINT CLUB Throughout Gardner-Webb’s illustrious history, 14 women have reached a milestone that not many do - scoring 1,000 career points. Teammates Susan Bolt Briggs and Carolyn Dewberry were the first to score 1,000 points during their time in Boiling Springs. From 1988-1992, Fredia Lawrence lit up the scoreboard, setting the Runnin’ Bulldogs’ all-time scoring record at 2,201 points. Since the move to NCAA Division I, Margaret Roundtree netted the most points for GWU, tallying 1,337 in her stellar career. Under head coach Rick Reeves, three players have joined the 1,000 point club. Sequenta Blackman tallied over 1,000 points for her career. Blackman, who graduated in May 2006, finished her career as the 11th-most productive scorer in Runnin’ Bulldogs’ history with 1,195 points. On Jan. 25, 2007, senior Shameka Smith netted her 1,000th career point. The Bessemer City, N.C., native finished with 1,136 points, which at the time was good enough for 12th on the GWU all-time list. In the 2009-10 season, Gardner-Webb’s Margaret Roundtree scored her 1,000 point en route to finishing her career with 1,337 points, placing her in sixth-place all-time and surpassing Casey Collins as the Runnin’ Bulldogs Division I career scoring leader.
