Seasoned Leadership

►► 2008 MEMPHIS SOCCER ► MEDIA GUIDE

VETERAN LEADERSHIP

Memphis will return eight players who hold the distinction of starting more than 10 games in 2007. Included are the Tigers’ six seniors; Michael Coburn, Sean Goulding, Tripp Harkins, Thomas Hyland, Jordan Lynn and Robert Sausaman. Among them, Coburn is the lone player remaining from Memphis’ 2004 Conference USA championship team. Coburn, a senior defender from Dundalk, Ireland, was a freshman on the 2004 team, starting all but one game for the Tigers. 2008 will be his fifth year donning a Memphis Tiger uniform. Coburn redshirted in 2006 due to an ankle injury. Senior midfielder Tripp Harkins

COACHING ADDITION

Memphis beat UAB, 3-2, in a dramatic second half comeback to win the 2004 C-USA Championship. The game also marked the team’s first televised game.

TIGERS

ON THE

TUBE

Tiger fans will be able to watch the Memphis men’s soccer team on national television on two occasions during the 2008 season. The first opportunity will come on October 5, when the Tigers take on the SMU Mustangs at Mike Rose Stadium. The game will be broadcast on CBS College Sports. The Tigers lost last season’s match, 1-0, to the then No. 2 Mustangs. If you miss the Tigers’ match-up with the Mustangs, you can catch them for a second time on CBS College Sports when they take on the defending C-USA champion Tulsa Golden Hurricane on October 26 at Mike Rose Stadium. This is only the second and third times, respectively, the U of M will play in front of a television audience. The last time was on Nov. 14, 2004, in the 2004 Conference RANKED RIVALS USA Championship in Louisville, Ky. against the UAB Memphis will take on some Blazers in a 3-2 comeback stout competition during the victory. The win gave Mem2008 season. The Tigers phis its second ever trip to will face-off with four oppothe NCAA Tournament. nents who finished the season in the NSCAA Top-25 rankings including; No. 9 Creighton, No. 10 Bradley, No. 18 SMU and No. 20 Tulsa. The combined 2007 record of Memphis’ 2008 opponents is 161-145-52.

In 2008, the Tigers welcome a new full-time assistant coach to the staff with the addition of former Davis and Elkins College women’s soccer head coach Mat Santoro. Santoro brings with him a wealth of experience at the collegiate level. On top of coaching the Davis and Elkins women’s team for four seasons, Santoro spent the four previous seasons at his alma-mater, Rowan University, where he was the primary recruiter for the Profs. “Mat brings great experience as a player and a coach,” said head coach Richie Grant. “ I really believe that he is going to be able to develop great relationships with each of the players. Mat knows what it is like to be in charge, and I think that is going to be mutually beneficial for the coaching staff and the players.”

POLL POSITION Richie Grant has led the Tigers to Top-25 rankings in each of his last four seasons. Last year the Tigers reached the No. 25 spot in the Soccer America poll released on Oct. 15. Memphis slipped into the polls after defeating Kentucky, 3-1. In 2008, the U of M looks to bring the streak to five years in a row of being recognized as a Top-25 team. Since 2004, the Tigers have been ranked as high as No. 10 in the polls.

FORWARDS

GOALKEEPERS Goalie Michael Goodlett looks to build on a positive spring performance when the Tigers take the field this fall. The junior saw action in four games last season, allowing one goal, while making five saves. Goodlett split time with Tyler Strom in goal in 2006, allowing 18 goals in 12 games. “We talked about the importance of our back four, but we really only go as far as our goalie allows us this season,” Richie Grant said. “The last time we won a championship we had the best goalkeeper in the league; Michael has that potential. He played a lot as a freshman, played back-up last year and had a good spring. We will be looking for Michael to lead the way at that position. He’s going to have some great competition from a couple of young players.” Backing up Goodlett will be three incoming players, Harrison Cheatham, Cody Gibson and Jordan Leedle. Cheatham, a transfer from Young Harris College in Georgia, joined the team for the spring practice. The junior was named all-region as both a freshman and a sophomore.

Ruble, a 2007 All-C-USA Freshman Team selection, will be leading the strikers in the coming season. MIDFIELDERS Senior midfielder Sean Goulding

MIDFIELDERS The Tigers return a core of impact players from last year at the midfield position. Three seniors; Sean Goulding, Tripp Harkins and Jordan Lynn, look to step into leadership roles for the Tigers in 2008. Goulding, a third team All-Conference USA selection, was the team’s assist leader on the 2007 season with six. Harkins looks to bring his attacking mind-set to the midfield spot, while perhaps also seeing time at the forward position. Lynn contributed three goals and two assists last season. Adding depth to the midfield will be Eric Trujillo and J.R. Romero. Trujillo saw action in four Tiger matches last season, while Romero appeared in 15 games for Memphis, contributing one assist on the season. Joining the Tigers in 2008 will be six incoming midfielders; Jason Brooks, Dale Calvert, Elias Groft, Bradley Jacobs, Cody McCoy and Thomas Shannon. Brooks, Calvert and Shannon are coming in as players who can handle both the midfielder and defender positions. Groft, Jacobs and McCoy will be able to provide added depth to an already deep position group. The Tigers lose two impact players from last year in Adam Montgomery and Kevin Walsh. Walsh tied Ryan Ruble for the team’s leading goal scorer.

Memphis returns an experienced group to the fold at the forward spot, returning two players—one junior and one sophomore—who saw extensive playing time in 2007. Ryan Ruble, a sophomore, joined the Tigers in 2007 as a defender, but was asked to make the transition to forward. The Lee’s Summit, Mo., native, answered the call for the Tigers, making an immediate impact on the Memphis front line. Ruble tied for first on the team in goals scored with six, and led the team in shooting percentage on the season. His impressive performance earned him the attention of the conference elite, as they elected Ruble to the 2007 Conference USA All-Freshman team. Joining Ruble up front will be Brian Farrell. The junior from Dunboyne, Ireland, saw considerable playing time last season, seeing action in all 19 Tiger games, while starting 12. Farrell connected on two goals on the season and dished out four assists. Adding his services to the front line will be incoming freshman Parker Duncan, a native of Johnson City, Tenn. The only loss to the forward spot comes in the form of the graduation of walk-on-turnedcaptain, Jared Britcher. Britcher was a key cog in Sophomore forward Ryan Memphis’ starting line-up for Ruble the last three seasons.

In 2007, Grant reached 89 wins and moved his Memphis career winning percentage up to .569, which ranks him as the winningest coach in school history. Grant led the Tigers to 10-wins for the third consecutive season, finishing with an overall record of 10-5-4 in 2007. Many of Grant’s players had honors bestowed upon them last season. The Tigers’ four NSCAA All-Midwest team honorees were the most in Memphis soccer history. On top of earning all-region honors, five Tiger players were named to the All-C-USA team, including Ryan Ruble, who became the seventh freshman of Grant’s career to be named to the C-USA All-Freshman team. Off of the soccer field, Grant’s players stayed active in the classroom as they received numerous academic awards, including Jared Britcher who was named to the ESPN The Magazine/ CoSIDA Academic All-America third team for the second time in his career. Grant has been named C-USA Coach of the Year twice in his career and led his 2004 team to a conference title and its first NCAA appearance since 1993. Ever since 2004, Grant’s team has been in the Top 25 at least once during the season and has been ranked as high as No. 10 nationally. Since his arrival at Memphis in 1999, Grant has failed to reach the .500 mark only twice. Immediately following the 2004 conference championship, proof of the team’s overall strength was solidified in the form of a nationally-ranked offense, Grant’s fourth in seven years. The 2005 Tigers led C-USA and were third in the nation in goals-per-game (2.56) and were second in C-USA in goals (46), assists (43) and points (135). Two forwards from the 2005 squad were drafted by Major League Soccer (MLS) franchises. The 2004 campaign also marked a new era of defensive dominance for Memphis soccer. The defensive unit set school records for goals allowed and goals-against average (0.70), which was ninth-best in the country. The following

season, goalkeeper Tyler Strom led C-USA with a .815 save percentage. The 2006 campaign showed the same kind of promise. The Tigers opened the season with eight wins in their first 10 matches and reached a No. 15 ranking in the National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) poll. Prior to his arrival at Memphis, Grant led the turn around for the Lambuth University soccer program in Jackson, Tenn. In his four years at Lambuth, he led the Eagles to consecutive Mid-South Conference titles and an NAIA Region XI championship while posting a 53-29-2 record. In his 13 years as a head coach, Grant has amassed 142 wins and a .593 winning percentage. In his nine years at Memphis, he is 89-66-12. As a player, Grant was a three-time NAIA All-American defender and was twice named the NAIA District V Player of the Year at Green Mountain College in Poultney, Vt., where he received his bachelor’s degree in leisure resources and facilities management in 1993. Grant went on to play for the Minnesota Thunder, a semi-pro team that competes in the A-League. After one season with the Thunder, Grant took a coaching position at Bloomsburg University in Pennsylvania and earned his master’s degree in communication studies while working as an assistant coach from 1993-95. Grant earned his NSCAA Advanced National Diploma in 1997 and his NSCAA Premier Diploma in 2002. He served as the head coach of Tennessee’s Under-23 Olympic Development Team in 2001. He is currently in his seventh year at the helm of the Tennessee U-17 ODP squad. Grant served as the head coach of the U-17 Super Clubs national all-star team, which toured England in the summer of 2001 for a week of matches against top international competition. Grant is married to Memphis assistant women’s soccer coach Jodi Grant and has four siblings. His parents, Richie and Annette, live in Dublin, Ireland.

Nick Glaser begins his second season as a coach with the University of Memphis soccer program after graduating from Memphis in 2001. Glaser is responsible for the midfielders. “This is a real exciting season for Nick because he was instrumental in putting the recruting class together,” said head coach Richie Grant. “We really benefited from his involvement with the program. I am really pleased with the contribution that he continues to make and I think he has had a big influence on our program improving in the past couple of years.” Glaser, a standout on Tiger soccer teams from 1997-2000, rejoined the team prior to 2007 after spending the 2005 and 2006 seasons as an assistant coach for Atlantic 10 power University of Dayton. From 2003-2004, Glaser served as an assistant at Cumberland University, where he worked with the Bulldogs’ men’s and women’s teams before leaving the NAIA school to join the Flyers. Glaser got a head start on his coaching career by working the club team ranks. The Hendersonville, Tenn., native served as head coach of the Hendersonville Fever ‘93 team from 2001-2004 as well as the Hendersonville Fever ‘91 squad from 2002-2003. After graduating from Memphis, Glaser continued his playing career with the Nashville Metros of the A-League and helped the club to the 2001 A-League playoffs, the club’s first postseason appearance since 1998. After one season in Nashville, Glaser spent the 2002 and 2003 ALeague seasons with the Cincinnati Riverhawks, leading the club in minutes played in 2003. While at Memphis, Glaser earned Conference USA All-Freshman Team. During that season he helped the Tigers to a 10-8-2 record by playing in 20 games (18 starts) and recording five goals (including two game winners) and five assists during his freshman season. “As a former player here, Nick knows the expectations of the program as an athlete,” Grant said. “He knows the standards of the conference, and he’s played professionally, so he brings a wealth of experience to our players.” Glaser graduated from Memphis in 2001 after earning a degree in marketing and totaled 35 points (11 goals, 12 assists) in 73 games in a Tiger uniform.

Remco de Jong enters his fourth season with the University of Memphis men’s soccer team as the volunteer goalkeeping coach. De Jong has helped the U of M goalkeepers become some of the best in the league. Under de Jong, former U of M keeper Tyler Strom had the lowest goals against average in the conference in 2007 with 0.92 and had the third best save percentage with .791. Strom’s 1.17 career GAA also ranks second all-time at Memphis. “Remco is a product of one of the best programs in the world, so he brings a great deal of expertise to that position,” said head coach Richie Grant. “He’s very committed to improving our young keepers. De Jong has been responsible for goalkeeper Michael Goodlett’s development during his time at the U of M. The Memphis men’s soccer team has high expectations of Goodlett following a solid spring. Head coach Richie Grant credits de Jong for helping Goodlett make progress toward becoming one of the top goalkeepers in the C-USA. In addition to Goodlett, de Jong will be working with three incoming goalkeepers in 2008. A native of Amsterdam, de Jong started playing soccer at Ajax in the Netherlands when he was 10-years-old. As a goalkeeper with Ajax, he played with John van het Schip, Stanly Menzo, and Marco van Basten, who coached the Dutch National team to a Round of 16 appearance at the 2006 World Cup. De Jong’s U-18 team, coached by three-time European Cup champion Johan Cruyff, won the Netherlands National Championship in 1981-82. His Ajax 3 team also won the national championship in 1985-86 and was a regional champion from 1985-88. In Holland, he coached the amateur club RKAVIC from 1996-2000 and is currently in his sixth year of coaching goalkeepers for the West Tennessee Futbol Club Dragons. De Jong is married to Angela de Jong-Angelici, the executive producer of the Fox 13 morning show in Memphis. The couple lives in Memphis with their two children, Alyssa and Luca.

“I think we had a really productive spring,” said head coach Richie Grant. “It was advantageous that we had such a small squad this spring. It allowed everyone on the roster to see the field and to get more experience. The schedule we played really helped in preparing our lads for the demands of the upcoming season.” Top Notch Competitors For the fifth year the Tiger’s spring schedule included teams from the professional ranks. On Feb. 16, the Tigers visited Pizza Hut Park in Frisco, Texas, to take on FC Dallas. The Tigers were defeated in the contest, 2-0. This year’s match marked the fourth time in five years that the Tigers competed against FC Dallas during the spring season. Memphis visited its second MLS opponent on April 13, when they visited the Kansas City Wizards, losing 5-0. It was the second time that Memphis has matched up with the Wizards. “We’re real pleased to have had both MLS matches,” Grant said. It’s a fantastic opportunity for our players to play against professionals and a great way to keep spring training exciting.” Transitioning Positions The spring saw some position changes in the works. Sophomore Ryan Ruble, who came to Memphis as a defender was called on to play forward during the 2007 season, which continued during the spring. “With Ryan learning a new position, it is vital that we get him more time at the forward position,” Grant said. The spring provided us with that opportunity.” The Tigers also experimented some with senior Tripp Harkins at forward.

Next Man In This fall Memphis will be looking to replace senior goalkeeper Tyler Strom, who was lost to graduation. The front runner to fill the void looks to be Michael Goodlett, a junior from Bolton, Miss. “It was vital that we got Michael four games of starting experience this spring,” Grant said. “We are hoping to reap the benefits of Michael’s growth this spring during the fall season.”

Four Years Strong The Memphis men’s soccer team continued its tradition of putting a solid product on the field in 2007. The Tigers played toe-to-toe with some of the nation’s top men’s soccer programs, facing off with three ranked opponents; No. 2 SMU, No. 10 Creighton and No. 14 Tulsa. Memphis’ performance against fierce competition proved beneficial, as it helped them break into the Top 25 for the fourth season in a row. “For the last four years, we have been ranked,” said Memphis head coach Richie Grant. “Since 2004, we have consistently at some stage in the season been in the top 25 in one of the major polls. I think that it is a testament to our strength of schedule that we play and the fact that we are getting some national recognition is always good for the program.” “I think it is a credit to the players that have gone through the last four years that, as you graduate classes all the time, there is some consistency in the level of performance in the program.” The Tigers opened Grant’s ninth season in charge of the program by sweeping both of their opponents to win their third Memphis Diadora Tournament. First up in the tournament was the Tigers’ former C-USA rival Louisville. The Tigers and Cardinals played a scoreless match until the end of the first half, when transfer Rory Dowd took a free kick from Sean Goulding and turned it in for a Memphis goal. The goal would prove to be the deciding score, meaning a 1-0 victory for the Tigers. Memphis would follow suit on Sunday, defeating Evansville, 2-1. After back-to-back home wins against Louisville and Evansville, the Tigers went on the road to California, where it faced Cal State Fullerton and Cal State Northridge. Memphis returned with a tie and its first loss of the season. Following their trip to the west coast, the Tigers

returned to take on their first C-USA foe, forcing a 1-1 tie with UCF. Memphis continued its winning ways over the next three matches, defeating IPFW, Mercer and Centenary. In the match against IPFW, the Memphis goals came like clockwork. Striking first for the Tigers was Brian Farrell, scoring from six yards out seven minutes into the match. The Tigers would go on to score four more goals in the game, defeating the Mastadons, 5-0, for the second shutout of the year. With three consecutive wins under their belt,

the Tigers set forth to take on two ranked competitors in the 14th-ranked Tulsa Golden Hurricane and No. 10 Creighton Bluejays. Tulsa played Memphis into two overtime periods after knotting the score at 3-3 on a Todd Goddard goal in the 85th minute. The two teams went goalless in overtime, leaving the final result as a 3-3 tie. The Tigers dropped the following match to Creighton, but bounced back defeating the Kentucky Wildcats for their first C-USA win of the season, propelling Memphis into the Soccer America polls at No. 25. The Tigers next time out they marched to their second C-USA win against Marshall on a Thomas Hyland header in the 78th minute. Possessing a No. 25 rank, Memphis welcomed a dangerous South Carolina team to Mike Rose. In a defensive-laden game, no goals were scored

A L L - T I M E A T T E N D A N C E The Tigers set record-breaking attendance marks in 2007 as they posted three new attendance highs, including a packed house of 927 fans against Kentucky at the Mike Rose Soccer Complex. Memphis was victorious with a 3-1 win over the Wildcats. The Tigers’ second-largest crowd came in the double header season opener. The women’s team played first at 5:30 p.m. against Arkansas-Little Rock, and the men’s team followed with a match against Louisville at 7:30 p.m. The teams brought in a crowd of 879 fans to watch both soccer teams in action. “Our marketing staff has done a great job in getting fans to come out to watch the games,” Grant said. “I think the atmosphere has really improved. Our schedule has also improved, and we are looking to build on that this year with an even better schedule and nationally televised games.”

until the 57th minute when USC took the lead, 1-0. The Tigers tied the match 1-1, forcing two overtime periods. Memphis had an unsuccessful last second shot off the foot of Jared Britcher with 44 seconds remaining. The overtime periods would remain scoreless, thus cementing the game in a 1-1 tie. The Tigers followed a hard-fought performance against USC with a 3-0 rout of Central Arkansas. Memphis’ hardest test was ahead of them, as they went into Dallas to take on the No. 2 SMU Mustangs. In a low-scoring game, the Mustangs scored the lone goal in the 34th minute to clinch the win. The Tigers ended the regular season with two wins and one loss, defeating Alabama A&M and Florida International, but losing its contest with the UAB Blazers. Memphis entered the C-USA Championships seeded No. 5. The Tigers’ season came to an end with a 2-1 overtime loss to South Carolina in the

semifinals of the Conference USA Tournament. The loss came 20 seconds into the overtime period when South Carolina scored on a penalty kick to advance to the next round. “I’m hoping that the loss will serve as a bit of motivation for next year,” Grant said. “It was a great game against South Carolina. As usual, our games with them are very very tight. I thought we were playing very well. Unfortunately, it came down to extra time. We had no complaints. It’s not an easy way to go out in the tournament, but with a lot of our guys coming back, hopefully the experience will have helped them.” The Tigers finished the season with a 10-54 record and a fifth place finish in the Conference USA standings, improving on the year before when they finished in seventh. CL ASS OF 2 0 0 7 The U of M said farewell to four seniors who had distinguished careers with the Tigers. Adam Montgomery, Kevin Walsh, Tyler Strom and Jared Britcher all ended their time with the Tigers in 2007, but left the U of M with many accolades to go around. As a group, the senior class earned 20plus awards during its time here. “It is always difficult to lose your senior class, but it is something that you get used to,” Grant said. I always enjoy a good group of senior players. They have a great impact on the team. Their leadership makes way for the young to step out. I expect the leadership next year to be just as strong.” The senior class combined for 12 goals (two game-winners), seven assists, and 4,203 minutes in 2007. PLAYING L IKE A VET ERAN Freshman Ryan Ruble earned a Conference USA All-Freshman Team nod during his rookie campaign. The Lee’s Summit, Mo., native entered the Tigers’ line-up and finished his first season tied as the team’s leading scorer with six goals. Ruble also racked up two assists and three game winners. Ruble is the seventh freshman to earn the honor under Grant’s guidance. “Ryan was a bit of a lifesaver for us last year,” Grant said. “He came in as a defender. I had recruited him as a back. He came in and played center forward for us and just got better and better for us in that position. He scored very important

NO GOAL S ALLOWE D Once again Memphis has been able to defend the net like no other. For the fourth-straight year, Memphis posted at least four shutouts in the regular season. The Tigers goalkeepers’ seven shutouts earn the distinction of being Memphis’ secondhighest shutout total since 2004 when the Tigers had nine shutouts in the regular season. SCORING IN THE CLASSROOM The Memphis Tigers know how to score on the field and in the classroom. Receiving the highest award for the Tigers was senior forward Jared Britcher. For his academic excellence, he was named to the ESPN The Magazine/CoSIDA Academic All-America third team. With a gradepoint average of 3.64, Britcher graduated with a degree in exercise and sports science. The University of Memphis men’s soccer program earned the National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) College Team Academic Award for the 2006-07 academic year. The Memphis men’s team earned the award for the first time in the program’s history, posting a 3.12 team grade-point average.

Striving to Repeat...

►► 2008 MEMPHIS SOCCER ► MEDIA GUIDE

he reigning Conference USA Champions are not satisfied with just one bite, so in 2008 the Memphis women’s soccer team looks to repeat and advance to another NCAA Tournament. Behind Head Coach Brooks Monaghan and his staff, the Lady Tigers will be on the prowl come this fall and hope to go deeper in the NCAA Tournament this year. With nine newcomers, Monaghan hopes they will have another record-breaking season.

The Memphis women’s soccer team will be returning 21 of 28 letterwinners, including eight of 11 starters and some key reserves. Although the majority of the 2008 squad is underclassmen, the entire team has a skill level no age limit can define. The youth outnumber the veterans 21 to eight, but everyone will be vying for a starting position. “We feel like we have raised the bar this past season and have set high goals for the fall,” Monaghan said. “The team is looking to repeat as conference champions and make it to the NCAAs and advance further. Last year set a new standard and we want to continue with the evolution of the program.” F O R W A R D S If there is any player on your team that you want leading the attack, Kylie Hayes is the one. She holds the Memphis career record in goals (37), and also was the leading goal scorer last year with 11. She will undoubtedly finish her

AN ELITE SCHEDULE The Lady Tigers will compete against four NCAA Tournament teams in the 2008 season. A look at the NCAA teams with their 2007 record. Colorado ..............................10-8-4/Second Round Miami ..........................................9-7-5/First Round Notre Dame (Exhibition).............15-7-3/Final Four UCF ......................................15-5-3/Second Round

Memphis career as the leading goal scorer and needs just seven more points to lead that category also. Sophomores Melissa Smith, Ashley Berra and Krista Turner proved the freshmen could hang with the veterans, as all three had an unbelievable first season. Smith will be rehabbing a knee injury sustained three-fourths of the way through the 2007 season that kept her out of postseason play. Before her injury, Smith started every game for the Lady Tigers and had accumulated five goals and four assists. Berra was named the Conference USA Championship Offensive MVP, having scored three goals over the championship, including the semifinal gamewinner over UTEP. Turner improved on her game as the season went on and soon began to see herself as one of Memphis’ dominate forwards. She tallied three goals and six assists in her freshman campaign. Memphis will lose just one forward in Harumi Someya, who was the third-leading scorer for the Lady Tigers. Someya was a tremendous help off the bench as Memphis had a rotation that worked well and skyrocketed them to the top of Conference USA. Memphis brings in one forward in Julia Ignacio, who hails from Alberta, Canada. Look for her to enter the rotation and make an immediate impact.

M I D F I E L D E R S Memphis’ midfield game has never been as strong as it was in 2007. The duo of Emiko Schwab and Vendula Strnadova introduced opponents to a midfield that would not budge. Strnadova started the season off as a forward but was quickly moved to the midfield position where she was unstoppable. Between the two, they racked up numerous awards throughout the season from Conference USA, Soccer Buzz and NSCAA. Together they combined for 13 goals and 7 assists. Look for the duo to team up again in the fall and claim the midfield as their own. Strnadova was voted the team’s Newcomer of the Year and Schwab was named the Most Valuable Player. The Lady Tigers will introduce three new midfielders to the rotation as Tara Telford, Lizzy Simonin and Elizabeth Hildebrandt join the team. All three are center midfielders who are very versatile. D E F E N D E R S Senior Kate Murphy will take on the defensive leadership role in her last campaign. She started all 22 matches for the Lady Tigers last season and was a key figure in holding opponents to a goals against average of 0.84 and under eight shots per game. Murphy will be assisted in the backfield by sophomore Kelsey Bakker, who was named the Conference USA Championship Defensive MVP and named to the Soccer Buzz National Team of the Week.

S C H E D U L E The Conference USA Champion Lady Tigers will face some tough competitors in the 2008 season, as they will play against schools from the ACC, Big 12 and SEC. Ten home matches highlight the fall schedule. Memphis starts the preseason with matches against Notre Dame and Western Kentucky. Memphis will start the regular-season off at home, as it faces ArkansasLittle Rock and Alabama in the first two matches. After that, the team travels to Oxford, Miss., for a match-up against Ole Miss before returning home for a three-game stint against Miami, Oklahoma and Colorado. They will go to Mississippi State to play the Bulldogs before returning home to open conference play. “Our out-of-conference schedule is phenomenal. We have some very quality teams on the schedule,” Monaghan said. “We will have some great home matches with Miami, Colorado, Alabama, Oklahoma and plenty others coming

The backfield has lost two starters in Caroline Barrett and Halley Jo Sullivan, but has brought in three freshmen: Carly Bykerk, Heather Trotter and Kelsey Robson. They will be accompanied by some returnees who will all battle for playing time. G O A L K E E P E R S After finishing an amazing season with only one goalkeeper, Memphis will now have three to choose from. Redshirt freshman Elise KuharPitters will be returning to the net. The goalkeeper suffered a season-ending injury in the first match of the 2007 season that forced her to sit out. Kuhar-Pitters returned to the net in the spring for the Lady Tigers to lead them past tough competition. Jordan Boyle and Nikki Unland will round out the goalkeepers for the Lady Tigers in 2008.

to town to face us at Mike Rose. The non-conference schedule will definitely prepare us for conference, where our goal is to repeat as conference champions. This season should be an exciting one for our fans.” Southern Miss will be the Lady Tigers’ Conference USA home opener on Sept. 26. Memphis will battle UCF two days later at home on Sept. 28. In October, Memphis will only play three out of nine matches at home. They play Houston on Oct. 10, Rice on Oct. 12 and Marshall on Oct. 24, which will be the Lady Tigers’ Senior Day. With the new C-USA rule that every team will play each other once in regular season play, the Lady Tigers find themselves traveling to UTEP on Oct. 3 and Colorado College on Oct. 5. Memphis will take another trip a week later on Oct. 17 as it plays SMU and Tulsa on Oct. 19. For the secondstraight year Memphis will play its last two games on the road at East Carolina on Oct. 26 and UAB on Oct. 31 to close out the regular season. Conference USA Championships will be hosted by Rice University from November 5-9.

With eight seasons under his belt, Monaghan has taken the University of Memphis women’s soccer program to new heights. The 2007 soccer season is one that will go down in the record books and will always be the season to remember. His squad broke 18 team and 14 individual school records last year, while earning the team’s first conference championship title. The records do not include the six they broke or tied at the Conference USA Championship. The 2007 team is only the third team in C-USA history to shutout every opponent in the championship and win the entire tournament. Monaghan has proven himself as the most successful coach in the program’s history as he was named C-USA Coach of the Year. He posted a school best 17-4-1 record and a winning percentage of .795, moving his career record to 79-69-9 (.532). Memphis has now posted four-straight years of consecutive winning records. Last season, the Tigers went 9-1-0 at home and went on a seven-game win streak. Enduring a tough out of conference schedule, Memphis went 4-1 against the SEC West beating hard competitors like Arkansas and Alabama on the road, and Ole Miss and Mississippi State at home. Memphis ended the year battling UNC Greensboro in the first round of the NCAA Championships. “We’re ecstatic to have been a part of the 2007 NCAA Tournament,” Monaghan said. “It’s a terrific outcome of the hard work that we have put forth over the past years. It proves that hard work does pay off and shows how far we have come over time.” Monaghan has coached 16 C-USA All-Conference winners, two C-USA Freshman of the Year, one C-USA Offensive MVP and one C-USA Newcomer of the Year in his tenure as a head coach at Memphis. In 2007, Vendula Strnadova was named C-USA Freshman of the Year, the first Memphis player to earn the award since Jessica Gjertsen in Monaghan’s first year as head coach. After a phenomenal season in 2007, Monaghan received numerous coaching honors. He was honored by Conference USA as the Women’s Soccer Coach of the Year and was also named Soccer Buzz Central Region Coach of the Year. Monaghan took the reins of the program in 2000 after serving for five years as an assistant coach for his predecessor, Les Szabo. Despite taking over a difficult situation, Monaghan has been able to turn the Lady Tiger soccer program into a success. In 2005, Monaghan became the longest tenured women’s soccer coach in school history. Just the program’s second coach, Monaghan surpassed Szabo in 2004 as Memphis’ all-time winningest coach

with his 35th career win. The Lady Tiger program has also flourished off the field during Monaghan’s tenure. The women’s soccer team earned the National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) College Team Academic Award for the 2006-07 academic year. Since 2000, the team has never posted a composite grade-point average below 3.0. In the spring of 2008, 24 players finished the semester with a GPA above 3.0, earning C-USA Commissioners Honor Roll accolades. Four players posted a perfect 4.0. Five Lady Tigers were also C-USA Academic Medal winners, posting a cumulative GPA of 3.75 or higher for the 2007-08 school year. “The most important thing we can do as coaches is try to prepare young people for success later in life,” Monaghan said. “Soccer is important to me, and I want to win. However, the foundation of our program is the studentathlete.” When Monaghan took over the team, he was already familiar with the demands of running a successful college soccer program, having enjoyed tremendous success during his playing career at Memphis. The former goalkeeper still holds school records for single-season shutouts (11) and career shutouts (24). He is third behind Lady Tiger assistant coach Sebastian Vecchio in career goals-against average (1.40) and second in single-season goals-against average (0.80). His 298 career saves rank second all-time. He was named first team All-Great Midwest Conference in 1992 after helping lead the Tigers to a share of a conference title. In 1993, he was the Defensive MVP of the league’s championship game, helping the Tigers to their first ever NCAA Tournament appearance. His 38 wins at goalkeeper still stand as the school record. “To be a part of Memphis from so many different angles - first as a player, then as an assistant and now as a head coach - has been wonderful,” Monaghan said. “I grew up here, and I’ve always loved the city and the school. Now I get to be a part of building a winning program at my alma mater, and that’s a dream come true.” A former prep standout at Christian Brothers High School in Memphis, Monaghan’s collegiate play helped earn him a spot on the U.S. U-20 National Squad. Monaghan also played professionally, spending two seasons with the New Orleans Gamblers from 1995-96 and one with the Memphis Express in 2002. A Memphis native, Monaghan received a bachelor’s degree in business management from Memphis in 1994. He is single and resides in Memphis.

Despite losing three starters, Memphis is ready to build off their record setting year.

JODI GRANT Assistant Coach Eighth Season

►► 2008 MEMPHIS SOCCER ► MEDIA GUIDE

odi Grant is every head coach’s wish. She is an assistant coach whose talent goes beyond any boundaries. Grant has been a part of the women’s soccer program since its inception. Along with head coach Brooks Monaghan, Grant led the 2007 Memphis women’s soccer team to its first Conference USA Championship title and its first NCAA Tournament appearance. “This program would not be where it is without Jodi,” Monaghan said. “I look at her as a co-head coach. Jodi is irreplaceable, and she deserves as much credit as I do for our success.” A native of Sherwood Park, Alberta, Canada, Grant is entering her eighth season as a full-time assistant coach with the Lady Tigers. Prior to that, she served as a graduate assistant coach for one season and as a volunteer assistant coach for a year. Grant has been a great recruiter in Canada, as Memphis has brought in seven Canadians in the past two years. Grant first came to the University of Memphis as a player on the inaugural Lady Tiger squad in 1995. She played four seasons, and in 79 career games, compiled school records still standing today. Grant holds the Memphis record for points (92) and shots (178). Her record for most goals with 33 was passed in 2007 by forward Kylie Hayes. Grant is also the co-holder of the record for most assists in a game (4) and is second alltime in school history in assists in a season (11) and career (26). A third team All-Conference USA selection as a junior in 1997, Grant was also named to the C-USA All-Freshman Team in 1995. In addition to helping Monaghan with on-field coaching duties and recruiting, Grant has also played an instrumental part in the Lady Tigers’ success in the classroom. The last four seasons, Memphis was the recipient of the women’s soccer team academic award from the National Soccer Coaches Association of America, and this spring had 24 out of 28 players finish with a grade-point average above 3.0. Junior defender Kate Murphy was named Memphis’ first female ESPN/CoSIDA Academic All-American in 2007, with a perfect 4.0 cumulative GPA. “Jodi is a great tactician on the field, but she’s just as good in teaching the kids off the field,” Monaghan said. “She is great role model for all of the players and really understands where they are coming from.” Grant earned her undergraduate degree in exercise and sport science from Memphis in 1999 and also earned a master’s degree in student personnel services from the university in 2002. Formerly Jodi Fisher, she married Memphis men’s soccer head coach Richie Grant in May 2006. The couple resides in Memphis.

of the trip. Boca Juniors won the match, 3-1. The Lady Tigers faced San Lorenzo in their last game of the trip, winning 2-0. Emiko Schwab was named the Player of the Week by the Argentinean and Memphis coaches.

Memphis played a total of four games at home during the spring where it ended up going 3-1, with their only loss coming to Oklahoma State. They jumped back in the second game and were able to get a win against St. Louis. The Lady Tigers beat Arkansas–Little Rock, 70 and then battled the NAIA champs of Martin Methodist to a 2-1, victory in its second stint of home matches.

Memphis finished its last four games going, 2-1-1. It posted wins against South Alabama and Vanderbilt, beating both teams 2-0. They tied Auburn 1-1 in a dueling match-up and suffered a 2-0 loss to Ole Miss, whom they had beaten during the fall.

This year the women’s soccer team was able to schedule a trip during spring break as the Lady Tigers found themselves Argentina bound from March 2-10. Although the trip allowed for the team to experience the country and do a lot of sightseeing, the Lady Tigers focus was primarily on the three teams they would be competing against during their stay. Memphis won the first game versus Estudiantes de la Plata, 4-0. They faced Boca Juniors in its second game (the best team in Argentina)

“The best way to describe this spring season is ‘long’,” said head coach Brooks Monaghan. ”The competition was fantastic and it was very realistic as to what we’ll face in the fall, We learned a lot about ourselves as a team in different areas and will hopefully take some positives into next fall.”

Exceptional students from Tennessee, from every other state in the nation and from almost 100 countries around the world choose to attend the University of Memphis.

than 500 student-athletes in 20 men’s and women’s intercollegiate sports, including nationally-visible programs in men’s basketball and football. He was named Temple’s director of athletics on May 9, 1994, after serving nearly six years as director of athletics at Miami (Ohio) University. He had also previously led the department at Eastern Illinois from 1980-88, and was the associate athletic director at Northern Iowa from 1974-80. A former football coach himself, Johnson served as an assistant at Mankato State University from 196874. He coached at Youngstown State University during the 1967 and 1968 seasons after serving as an assistant coach at Northern Iowa (1965-67) and the University of Iowa (1963-65). An Ottawa, Ill., native, Johnson holds his bachelor’s degree in sociology from the University of Iowa in 1965 and earned his master’s degree in physical education from the University of Northern Iowa in 1967. Johnson is a member of the National Association of College Directors of Athletics and serves on the NCAA Leadership Council. A veteran administrator

Johnson came aboard in February of 1996 and immediately set forth in bringing University of Memphis Tiger athletics into national prominence. Over the last 12-plus years, the dynamic ad-

R.C. JOHNSON

ATHLETIC DIRECTOR IOWA, 1965 ministrator has structured one of the most successful coaching staffs in the history of Tiger athletics and continues to strive for athletic and academic excellence while recognizing the importance of building strong university and community ties. Since his arrival, Johnson has hired such highprofile coaches as former Clemson head football coach Tommy West, who has taken the Tigers to a bowl game in four of the last five seasons, and former New Jersey Nets and UMass head basketball coach John Calipari, who had his squad in the 2008 National Championship Game. In the last five years, six U of M coaches have earned Conference USA Coach of the Year honors, including Calipari, who earned the league’s top honor in both 2006 and 2008. Also in the last five years under Johnson, the Tigers have captured 11 C-USA championships in men’s basketball, men’s soccer, women’s soccer, women’s golf and men’s track. Calipari has led his Tigers to four regular-season titles (2004, 2006, 2007, 2008) and three C-USA Tournament championships (2006, 2007, 2008). Richie Grant led the men’s soccer program to a league championship in 2004, while Brooks Monaghan piloted the women’s soccer team to a C-USA title last fall. In the spring of 2007, Kevin Robinson earned C-USA Coach of the Year honors after leading the Tigers to an outdoor track championship. Johnson is currently spearheading his second major capital campaign which will benefit nearly every area of the Tiger Athletic Department. Included in the $12.9 million project is a new addition to the Athletic Office Building, the newly-completed softball complex, an approaching redesign of the Tiger baseball stadium, a golf practice facility, a renovation of the Finch Center men’s basketball practice facility and a Hall of Fame to honor Tiger athletes. Johnson’s first capital campaign was previously the largest fund-raising effort in the history of Memphis athletics. The $8 million campaign included a new 8,000-square-foot football and basketball office complex addition, a new basketball practice facility, which is still considered one of the best in the

country, and a complete renovation of the Murphy Athletic Complex. During his tenure, Johnson has created the Athletic Director’s Honor Roll, the Tiger Scholarship Fund Board of Directors and the Athletic Director’s Ambassador’s Club. The Ambassador’s Club, which started with two members in 1997, has reached an alltime high of 32 members under Johnson. A significant revenue source for Tiger Athletics, members of the Ambassador’s Club pledge to commit $500,000. In June 2007, Johnson inked a lucrative longterm contract extension with Learfield Sports, which enabled Tiger Sports Properties to retain the multimedia rights for Memphis Athletics through 2017. In addition, the terms of the new agreement allow for options to continue through the 2021-22 academic year. The Tigers signed on with Learfield Sports in 2001, granting the partner radio and television rights, athletic venue signage, game day promotions and sponsorships, as well as the official athletic department website. Terms for the contract call for the Tigers to receive a financial guarantee each year of the agreement and to participate in annual revenue sharing. A believer in academic excellence as well as athletic success and national prominence, Johnson leads a department that set a school record with 50 percent of its student-athletes achieving a 3.0 or higher during the fall 2007 semester. For the most recent academic year, which includes fall 2007 and spring 2008, 315 student-athletes earned at least a 3.0 GPA and 35 students excelled with a 4.0 GPA. Ten teams logged a semester average of 3.0 or higher for the 2007 fall semester, and the athletic department as a whole is represented by a 2.8 GPA for the entire year. In May 2008, 39 athletes earned their degrees, marking the largest group for one ceremony since 2002 when the athletic academic services department began keeping record. And, under Johnson’s guidance, Memphis boasts an 89 percent graduation rate of all studentathletes who complete their eligibility at the U of M. Before taking over Tiger Athletics, Johnson was responsible for directing a Temple program with more

in Conference USA, Johnson sits on both the C-USA Bowl Committee and the league’s Finance Committee. His involvement in the Memphis community includes serving on the Memphis and Shelby County Sports Authority, and he most recently was invited to serve on the Mayor’s Stadium Committee which is charged with evaluating the feasibility of a new football stadium. In addition, he is a member of the University of Memphis President’s Council. Johnson and his wife, Melba, have three children: Jeff, P.A. and Michelle; five grandchildren and one great grandson.

In 2008, the Memphis Tigers will bring an exciting style of soccer to the Mike Rose Soccer Complex (MRSC). It will mark the eighth season that the MRSC has served as the home of Tiger soccer. The state-of-the-art facility sits on 136.17 acres and houses 16 FIFA dimension fields equipped with Bermuda grass, superior playing surface complete with underground drainage, sprinkler systems and lighted playing fields. Accompanying

MIKE ROSE

SOCCER COMPLEX these fields are fully paved walkways, easily accessible parking, restrooms, covered pavilions, picnic and recreation areas and a three-acre lake. It is a definite asset to both the Tiger and Lady Tiger soccer programs. “The facility has helped us in recruiting some of the better players in the region to our program,” said head men’s coach Richie Grant. Participant facilities within the stadium structure include showers and locker rooms, a food court, corporate skybox, full media services, administrative offices and a conference room. “Being able to play at Mike Rose enables our program to compete with anyone, facility-wise,” said head women’s coach Brooks Monaghan. “There may be some facilities that are similar or close to Mike Rose, but I honestly don’t feel there are any better. As far as quality and atmosphere, Mike Rose is first class.” Located in southeast Shelby County, just east of the Memphis city limits, the Mike Rose facility has established itself as one of the premier soccer facilities in the Mid-South. In 2003, the MRSC was the host site for the Ford Conference USA Tournament. “We feel like Mike Rose is one of the best college soccer facilities in the country,” Grant said. “The quality of the surface makes for entertaining soccer every night.”

DIRECTIONS TO THE MRSC From the University of Memphis campus, head south on Getwell Road for two miles. Take I-240 East via the ramp on the left and continue east for two and a half miles. Merge onto the Bill Morris Parkway/TN-385 East via exit No. 16 and continue east for approximately 8.4 miles. Then take the Forest Hill-Irene Road exit heading south for half a mile. Turn right onto East Shelby Drive and enter the Mike Rose Soccer Complex parking lot on your right at 9000 East Shelby Drive.

ATHLETIC COMPLEX HIGHLIGHTS The University of Memphis Murphy Athletic Complex is located approximately one mile south of the institution’s main campus and serves as the home and training facility for many of the Tiger athletic teams. Facilities Director Murray Armstrong is responsible for overseeing the facility.

A full-size soccer practice field and four 100-yard grass football fields highlight the back side of the Murphy Complex.

The Murphy Complex underwent some major changes and renovations in 2003. The renovations were part of a $6 million facelift given to the Murphy Complex, giving Tiger student-athletes a state-of-the-art training facility.

Men’s Soccer Locker Room

The renovated training room has examination rooms for team doctors, rehabilitation and taping areas and an inground aquatic pool for rehabilitating injuries. The equipment room has been renovated with an additional laundry room to ease the burden of taking care of the equipment needs of the football, track, baseball, softball and soccer teams. Additional locker rooms have been added for the football staff, women’s soccer team and visiting teams competing at the track and field and baseball facilities. A media interview room, video room and storage room were also a part of the renovation project.

An indoor turf practice facility at the Murphy Complex allows the Tigers to continue practicing in unfavorable conditions.

Facilities director Murray Armstrong is responsible for overseeing the Murphy Athletic Complex.

The 10,500-square-foot Tiger Strength Den can handle groups of up to 75 student-athletes training concurrently.

WEIGHT ROOM HIGHLIGHTS

Head Strength and Conditioning Coach Mike Stark oversees all workouts at the Murphy Athletic Complex. He is aided by graduate assistants Josh Medler, Kyle Miller and Chad Smith, and volunteer assistant Ken Roach. The Tiger football, men’s soccer, baseball and track teams work out with Stark and his staff. A former U of M football player, Stark has worked with over 40 NFL players, including the Carolina Panthers’ DeAngelo Williams, the New England Patriots’ Stephen Gostkowski, the Cleveland Browns’ Brandon McDonald, the Detroit Lions’ Idrees Bashir and the San Francisco 49ers’ All-Pro receiver Isaac Bruce. In addition to the Murphy Athletic Complex weight room, there is a weight facility in the Elma Roane Fieldhouse that was refurbished in the spring of 2005. That weight room benefits women’s basketball, volleyball, men’s tennis, women’s tennis, cross country, women’s golf, softball and women’s soccer. Former Marshall strength and conditioning coach Mike Jenkins was hired in late June to assist Stark and oversee the Fieldhouse strength facility. The men’s basketball team utilizes a weight room that is located in its practice facility, the Larry O. Finch Center. Assistant Strength Coach Richard Hogans is charged with the workouts of Tiger basketball, as well as the men’s tennis and men’s golf teams. With three state-of-the-art facilities located around campus, the U of M Strength and Conditioning staff is well-equipped to handle the training needs of Tiger Athletes.

The 10,500-square-foot varsity weight room is equipped with rugged, versatile hardware so that groups of up to 75 student-athletes can train concurrently with optimal effectiveness and efficiency. Workouts are designed and supervised by one or more of the Strength and Conditioning staff’s certified specialists, and each student-athlete’s individual progress is projected via a computerized database. The Tiger Power philosophy couples functional, multi-joint movements with fundamental principles: exercise techniques are simplified and performed on an alternating heavy/explosive basis in order to maximize training effects while minimizing teaching and training time (as well as fatigue). Performance based fitness and work quality are the bottom-line objective. The weight room’s equipment upgrade plan reflects this philosophy and includes: 10 self-contained Olympic platforms and power racks; a plyometric/medicine ball area; a complete dumbbell line; and a variety of hip sleds, glute/ ham stations, cable stations and other supplemental pieces allowing student-athletes to perform an unlimited variety of exercises and movements. The modern and spacious facility is also equipped with dressing/restrooms; is naturally illuminated; and is maintained at a constant 70-74 degrees. In planning the long-range Tiger Power programs, student-athletes are assigned to respective developmental levels based on individual ability and training history. For example, newcomers begin with an extensive volume of “foundational” or generalized movements and progress toward more intensive and specialized exercises with each successive phase.

Head Strength Coach Mike Stark

The actual workout menu may remain fairly constant over a student-athletes four- or five-year sport career; however, broad variations in workload combine the program’s simplicity with a measure of sophistication.

TRAINING ROOM renovation of the Park Avenue Campus in 2003. The new training facility, which more than doubles the size of the old training room, contains an in-ground aquatic rehabilitation pool, allowing trainers to work on rehabilitating injuries without having the student-athlete support his/her own body weight. The training room also contains new doctor examination rooms, storage areas and the latest in rehabilitation equipment. The athletic training staff uses a comprehensive approach to the injury care and wellness of student-athletes by utilizing state-of-theart diagnostic and treatment equipment with the latest methods in the care and prevention of injuries.

Amos Mansfield is in his fourth year as head athletic trainer. Mansfield spent four years at Southern Miss as an assistant trainer and was the primary trainer for men’s basketball, while also assisting with football. He has two full-time certified athletic trainers, two graduate assistants and 18 student trainers. Chris Simmons is entering his third year as the trainer for men’s basketball. He makes a return to the university where he earned his bachelor’s degree in exercise and sport science in 2002. Simmons came to Memphis after working as the head trainer for the Arkansas RimRockers of the NBDL. Natasha Platt enters her fifth year as an assistant trainer for women’s athletics. Platt was a student trainer at Memphis from 1998-2000 and earned her degree from the university in 2000. The athletic training staff is surrounded by many qualified and generous team doctors who are available to the many student-athletes at the University of Memphis. Dr. Barney Freeman, Dr. Fred Azar and Dr. Barry Phillips of The Campbell Clinic are directly responsible for the orthopedic needs of the Tiger football team, while Dr. Thomas Meriwether and Dr. Arthur Franklin serve as the team physicians. Dr. Allen Sills serves as the team’s neurosurgeon. Tiger student-athletes are fortunate to have the two largest privately-owned hospital systems in the world located in Memphis. Baptist Hospital and Methodist Hospital offer the finest in healthcare to area residents and handle the care of Memphis studentathletes. The athletic training staff is one support group that the athletic teams cannot do without. They are responsible for staffing all practices and games as well as handling the day-to-day rehabilitation of injured or post-surgery student-athletes. The goal of the sports medicine department is not only to care for the injuries, but also to assist the student-athletes in preventing injuries from occurring.

The University of Memphis’ Center for Athletic Academic Services (CAAS) is dedicated to the academic and personal development of all Tiger student-athletes. Its mission is to provide support services to ensure that U of M student-athletes succeed in the classroom and obtain undergraduate degrees. The services include orientation programs, tutoring, mentoring, academic counseling, study hall and academic advising. In March 2002, vast improvements were beginning to take place in the CAAS. At that time, Dr. Joe Luckey took over the staff after spending the previous 10 years at Austin Peay State. Dr. Luckey, who was nationally

Since 1999, men’s soccer has graduated 35 of 37 seniors, while 39 of 40 women’s soccer seniors have earned their diploma. The women’s soccer team has 16 straight semesters with a 3.0 GPA or higher. Pictured are some of the 41 Memphis student-athletes who graduated in May 2007. Included in the graduating class is men’s soccer alum Andy Metcalf, and women’s soccer alum Geneil Newbern.

BUILDING TOMORROW’S LEADERS

ACADEMIC CENTER recognized for his outstanding leadership in 1999, came to Memphis with a vision. In just one short year, Dr. Luckey recruited six new staff members, instituted new academic programs, designed and inspired two special sections of ACAD 1100 for student-athletes and transitioned the office from the basement of the Elma Roane Fieldhouse to the newly-renovated Wilder Tower. Dr. Luckey heads a full-time staff of eight, while also utilizing 20-30 tutors, two academic interns, graduate assistants and student workers. CAAS has a unique responsibility as an office as it provides academic services to all student-athletes and conducts all necessary paperwork for NCAA academic compliance. Assistant director Kelley Bickham, who was hired May 2007, was brought in specifically to handle NCAA, conference and institutional compliance matters associated with prospective and current student-athletes. The five academic counselors are assigned to specific sports working closely with those student-athletes and coaching staffs. Dr. Luckey has continued to challenge the Center’s staff, the coaching staffs and the student-athletes to collaboratively enhance the academic performance of U of M student-athletes. As the following highlights indicate, the group effort has resulted in positive results for the university. During the last six academic years, 14 teams have posted their highest-ever semester GPAs, a record number of student-athletes made the C-USA Commissioner’s Honor Roll and the Tiger 3.0 Club and several individual student-athletes have been recognized for prestigious academic awards, such as the NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship and Academic AllAmerica. The CAAS received a new home during the summer of 2003 with the completion of the Wilder Tower. The Wilder Tower also houses admissions, the bursar, financial aid, the registrar, stu-

dent development and academic advising. A total of 8,000 square feet, encompassing the entire sixth and seventh floors of the tower, have been designated for the CAAS. The area supports 21 student computer stations, 17 offices and numerous study tables. Inspired by Dr. Luckey, two special sections of ACAD 1100, Introduction to the University, were offered to student-athletes only. The class was so well received that a third section was offered in 2003 so that all freshman student-athletes could be included in the course. Students who participated in the class earned an average of 15.2 credit hours and an average GPA of 3.25. In its commitment to the overall development of the student-athlete, a fourth section will be instituted fall, 2008.

Four academic awards are sponsored by the CAAS as a means of honoring the top studentathletes.

WHY TIGERS?

When the University of Memphis first fielded a football team in the fall of 1912, no one had selected a nickname for the squad. Early references to the football team tabbed them only as the Blue and Gray Warriors of West Tennessee Normal School. After the final game of the 1914 season, there was a student parade. During this event, several Normal students shouted, “We fight like Tigers.” The nickname was born. More and more the nickname “Tigers” was used, particularly in campus publications. But it did not catch on with the newspapers downtown. They continued to use “Normals” or the “Blue and Gray” when referring to the University. Under Coach Lester Barnard in 1922, Normal’s football team gave a ring of truth to that old student yell about Tigers. The team adopted a motto – “Every Man a Tiger” – and went on to score 174 points while allowing its opponents just 29 points. In the late 1920s, student publications and downtown newspapers began referring to the football team as the “Teachers” or “Tutors.” The Tiger nickname would return, but not until 1939 was it finally adopted as the official nickname for the University of Memphis.

A PROUD HISTORY

TIGER TRADITIONS A BENGAL FOR A MASCOT

For over 30 years, the sideline mascot for The University of Memphis has been the Bengal Tiger. TOM II, the current Tiger mascot, attends all Tiger football home games, and he can also be found at many other University events throughout the year as a powerful and majestic symbol of Tigers Athletics. TOM II travels in style in a custom-designed, climate-controlled trailer, always with police escort. The first Tiger, TOM, was procured by the Highland Hundred Football Boosters in 1972 and served the U of M faithfully for nearly 20 years until passing away in February of 1992. TOM came to the university on November 9, 1972, when the tiger cub was placed in a dog kennel in Michigan City, Ind., and put on a Memphis-bound flight via Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport. He arrived in Memphis at 3:00 a.m., and C. Cleveland Drennon, President of the Highland Hundred, approved a check for $1,500 to purchase the animal. That morning, TOM was taken to Athletic Director Billy Murphy’s office for a press conference. The Highland Hundred officially presented TOM to the University in a ceremony at Liberty Bowl Memorial Stadium on November 11, 1972, during a football game against the University of Cincinnati. TOM had initially been named ‘Shane’ at the suggestion of the breeder’s daughter. Once in Memphis, though, a contest was held to name the mascot. More than 2,500 entries were submitted to a committee chaired by Judge Harry Pierotti, including colorful monikers like Spook, Sampson, Goliath, Bengo, Sultan, Sahib, Big Cat, Ptah, Touchdown, Sonny Shiloh, and even Bengie Wougie Bengal Boy from Tennessee. The list was ultimately reduced to two choices, Shane and TOM, which stands for Tigers Of Memphis. TOM won. During his first few months in Memphis, TOM was housed by Highland Hundred member Bill Proctor in his garage, which the Club had redecorated, and was closely guarded by Proctor’s hound dog. As TOM grew older, the decision was made by the Highland Hundred to keep the Tiger Tradition alive by securing a new Tiger to be raised as TOM II. In the fall of 1991, Highland Hundred President Ray Daniels and President-Elect Bobby Wharton received TOM II as a gift from Tom and Carolyn Atchison of Florence, Alabama. In 2005, TOM II moved to a new habitat in a rural area just south of Memphis on land offered by longtime Tiger fans Jeff and Mary Kuntz. The new facility was designed as a virtual copy of the original facility in Collierville, but includes many upgrades that improve TOM’s comfort and safety. As one of only two universities in America with a live Tiger mascot, the University of Memphis is unique in its Tiger Tradition.

SCHOOL COLORS

The University of Memphis’ official school colors of Blue and Gray were selected in the early 1900s. The colors were chosen in an effort to show unity in a nation that was still recovering from the effects of the Civil War. The student body thought that by picking the colors of the North and the South, the school would show a togetherness among all students.

THE LOGO

The University of Memphis’ official logo was redesigned by Craig Thompson, from Disciple Design in Memphis, Tenn. The original logo was an MSU with a leaping tiger coming out from behind the letters. The new logo is an “M” with a leaping Tiger coming up over the center of the “M.”

CITY OF

Considered the “Home of the Blues” and the “Birthplace of Rock ‘n Roll,” the city of Memphis’ musical roots run deep. However, music is just a chapter in the history as well as the future of the city located in the heart of Mid-America. Memphis, named after the capital of ancient Egypt, boasts all the amenities you would expect in a city with over 1 million residents, while retaining the charm and down-to-earth feel of a small town. Downtown Memphis is in the midst of a building boom valued at $2.3 billion which is transforming the heart of the city. One of the most visible projects has been the construction of AutoZone Park, the downtown ballpark which is the home of the Memphis Redbirds,

The arena has over 100 points of sale for concession stands and four full-service restaurants. FedExForum is located one block south of Beale Street. Memphis’ musical roots can be traced to band leader W.C. Handy, who wrote the first blues song here in 1909, a campaign theme for Memphis mayor “Boss” Crump called “Boss Crump Blues” and later published as the “The Memphis Blues.” The sound soon caught on and blues bands filled the clubs along Beale. Young musicians who have performed along Beale include Muddy Waters, Furry Lewis, Albert King, Bobby “Blue” Bland and B.B. King. Beale Street has rapidly become the entertainment center of Memphis and visitors and locals alike enjoy the food and music offered in the various nightclubs. From B.B.
