HUSKERS.COM THE BOB DEVANEY SPORTS CENTER The Nebraska volleyball program opened a new era in its storied tradition by moving into a new permanent home court for the first time in almost 40 years. When Nebraska played its preseason Red-White Match on Saturday, Aug. 24, 2013, the Bob Devaney Sports Center became the official home of Husker volleyball. The Devaney Center, which received $20 million in renovations designed to create the nation’s premier home court advantage for volleyball, will allow nearly 4,000 more Nebraska fans per game to watch the Huskers. Nebraska volleyball, which carried the longest home sellout streak in the history of any NCAA women’s sport with 181 consecutive sellouts (2001-12) at the historic NU Coliseum, has guaranteed another season of sellouts in its first year at the Devaney Center.

INTRODUCTION
The home of Nebraska Volleyball
The Nebraska volleyball program carries an NCAA women’s sport record of 181 consecutive home sellouts (2001-12) into its first season at the Bob Devaney Sports Center. Despite increasing its capacity crowd from 4,125 (NU Coliseum) to 7,907 (Devaney Center) the Huskers have sold out all 14 regular-season home matches in 2013.
The Nebraska volleyball program opened a new era in its storied tradition by moving into a new permanent home court for the first time in almost 40 years. When Nebraska played its preseason Red-White Match on Saturday, Aug. 24, 2013, the Bob Devaney Sports Center became the official home of Husker volleyball. The Devaney Center, which received $20 million in renovations designed to create the nation’s premier home court advantage for volleyball, will allow nearly 4,000 more Nebraska fans per game to watch their beloved Huskers. Nebraska volleyball, which carried the nation’s longest home sellout streak in the history of any NCAA women’s sport with 181 consecutive sellouts (2001-12) at the historic NU Coliseum, has guaranteed another season of sellouts in its first year at the Devaney Center. Not only did the Huskers quickly sell out the new 7,907-seat capacity at the Devaney Center long before the season began, they also have room for nearly 400 standing-room seats at each game and a season-ticket waiting list of well over 1,000. During the last two decades, Nebraska has ranked among the nation’s top three volleyball programs in average home attendance every season. In 2012, the Huskers finished second nationally by averaging 4,287 fans per match. Hawaii, the NCAA’s annual attendance leader for many years, drew 6,675 per home match in 2012. As the Huskers’ new home in 2013, the Devaney Center will put Nebraska in position to lead the nation in volleyball attendance on an annual basis. Although the old configuration of the Devaney Center served as the full-time home for Nebraska men’s and women’s basketball from its opening in 1976 until the completion of the 2012-13 season, Husker volleyball enters its first season at the new Devaney Center with a long history of success in the arena named after Nebraska’s Hall of Fame Coach and Athletic Director. The Huskers have regularly played at least one match per season in the Devaney Center over the last 22 years, including the entire 1991 home volleyball schedule while the NU Coliseum was being renovated. Overall, Nebraska carries a 23-3 record (.884 winning percentage) at the Devaney Center into 2013. Those wins have generally come in front of some of the largest regular-season crowds in the history of college volleyball. Overall, the Huskers played eight matches in front of 10,000 or more fans in the previous seating configuration at the Devaney Center since 1991, including the three largest regular-season crowds in NCAA history. In 2009, with a basketball seating capacity of 13,595, the Devaney Center set an NCAA regular-season attendance mark of 13,870 for a match against UCLA. The 13,870 for the UCLA match in 2009

set the previous NCAA regular-season mark of 13,412, which was set at the Devaney Center on Sept. 12, 2008, when the Huskers defeated LSU. On Oct. 21, 2007, the Devaney Center held 13,396 for a match against Hawaii. The renovations to the Devaney Center have done much more than change the capacity. Massive red ceiling trusses helped create a similar environment in the arena to the Huskers’ former home in the Coliseum. A great wall, which replicates the old Coliseum entry, adds to an atmosphere steeped in tradition. While the new Devaney Center pays homage to the history of the Coliseum, which served as the home to Husker NCAA Championship teams in 1995, 2000 and 2006, the innovative design and technological advances inside also symbolize the visionary contributions of AVCA AllTime Great Coaches Terry Pettit and John Cook. Nebraska volleyball players have long been encouraged to “Dream Big” and the Devaney Center project is making that dream a reality. The $20 million renovation covers 102,548 square feet. It includes greatly expanded premium seating options, while also providing drastically increased seating for both Nebraska students and physically challenged fans. The project also includes new 10MM video boards, along with updated concession areas and renovated restrooms. The new volleyball atmosphere at the Devaney Center hopes to create a perfect blend of tradition and technology for the benefit of the nation’s best volleyball fan base. It also will provide the best young volleyball players in the world the best environment for continuing to pursue Big Ten and NCAA championships at Nebraska.

INTRODUCTION
The big ten conference Since its inception in 1896, the pursuit and attainment of academic excellence has been a priority for every Big Ten member institution. But maintaining the conference’s status as one of the preeminent athletic conferences in the country also endures as an important component of the Big Ten student-athlete experience. Striking that balance between academics and athletics is integral to the Big Ten’s identity, and the Big Ten’s “Honoring Legends. Building Leaders.” campaign links directly to the Big Ten mission. Recognized as one of intercollegiate sports’ most successful undertakings, the Big Ten strives for success from its student-athletes not only on the field and in the classroom, but around the world as well.
James E. Delany Commissioner
Premier academic Institutions
All Big Ten universities have been granted Tier One Status by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, a distinction awarded to just over 100 universities. Big Ten schools have produced more than 1,450 academic All-Americans, more than any other conference, including 46 in the last academic year. For the 2011 fiscal year, the Big Ten led all conferences with over $8 billion in research expenditures, more than $2 billion more than any other conference.
EXTENSIVE TELEVISION EXPOSURE
A History of Athletic Success
Through the Big Ten’s media agreements with CBS Sports, ABC/ESPN, FOX and the Big Ten Network (BTN), nearly 1,000 Big Ten events are produced and distributed nationally on an annual basis. In 2006, the Big Ten created BTN, the first national conference-owned television network. With more than 53 million subscribers in the U.S. and Canada – and more outside the Big Ten region than inside – BTN allows fans to see their teams compete regardless of where they live.
BROAD-BASED PROGRAMMING
COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT For the last 24 years, through the Big Ten’s SCORE (Success Comes Out of Reading Everyday) program, the conference has partnered with Chicago elementary schools to improve reading performance. Surrounding the Big Ten Football Championship Game and Big Ten Basketball Tournaments, the conference holds numerous community initiatives, such as the Big Ten Career Expo, SaturDAY of Service, Officiating and Youth Football Clinics and various fundraising efforts, including the Think Pink promotions benefitting the Pink Ribbon Connection at previous women’s basketball tournaments.
During the 2012-13 season, Big Ten institutions claimed seven national championships: Indiana men’s soccer; Michigan men’s gymnastics; Michigan men’s swimming and diving; Minnesota women’s ice hockey; Nebraska women’s bowling; Ohio State women’s rowing; and Penn State wrestling. Over the last 10 years, the Big Ten is tied for the conference lead with national titles in 14 different NCAA-sponsored championships, including bowling, cross country, fencing, golf, gymnastics, ice hockey, lacrosse, rowing, soccer, softball, swimming and diving, track and field, volleyball and wrestling. Almost 1,400 Big Ten student-athletes and coaches have participated in the Olympics, winning at least 460 medals, including nearly 250 gold. Big Ten universities provide over $141 million in direct financial aid to more than 8,200 student-athletes playing on more than 300 teams in 42 different sports. The Big Ten sponsors 26 official conference sports, 13 for men and 13 for women, including the debut of men’s ice hockey as an official conference sport this academic year. In 2014-15, men’s and women’s lacrosse will be added as the conference’s 27th and 28th official sports, giving the Big Ten more official sports than all conferences other than the Ivy League.
PASSIONATE FOLLOWING
The Big Ten leads all conferences with nearly five million alumni and more than 460,000 students. Big Ten fans are some of the nation’s most supportive, with nearly 9.8 million patrons attending conference home contests during the 2012-13 seasons for football, men’s and women’s basketball and volleyball alone.
LEADERS IN INNOVATION
The Big Ten first awarded the Big Ten Medal of Honor in 1915, honoring outstanding senior student-athletes who demonstrate excellence in academics and athletics. The conference will award its 100th Medal of Honor in May 2014. The Big Ten Advisory Commission was formed in 1972. It enlists former studentathletes to serve as liaisons to the NCAA’s Diversity and Inclusion Department, the Big Ten Student-Athlete Advisory Commission and other organizations. The Big Ten became the first conference to voluntarily adopt male and female participation goals after launching its Gender Equity Action Plan in 1992. The Big Ten implemented the first collegiate football system of instant replay in 2004, which the NCAA approved for use among all conferences in 2006. In 2012, the Big Ten partnered with the Ivy League to study the effects of head injuries in sports. In June 2013, Johns Hopkins University was accepted as the conference’s first sport affiliate member, allowing the debut of men’s lacrosse as an official conference sport in 2014-15.

Kelsey Robinson comes to Nebraska from Tennessee where she was a 2011 AVCA Second-Team All-American and 2012 Honorable-Mention All-American • Named the SEC Player of the Year in 2011 • As a junior, she was a first-team All-SEC pick and was the SEC leader in doubledoubles (22) for the second-straight season in 2012 • Recorded a career-high 29 kills against Iowa State in 2012 • Earned Prepvolleyball.com and Volleyball Magazine All-America honors coming out of high school • Has a natural competitiveness and skill set to be one of the best all-around outside hitters in the country. “Kelsey has worked really hard to become a leader on this team,” Head Coach John Cook said. “Her natural competitiveness makes her a leader on the court, but we’ve asked her to do a lot off the court as well. Even though she is new to Nebraska volleyball, she is on a mission to have a great senior year. We feel she is one of the most complete outside hitters in the country, and she has worked hard to improve herself physically. She had a stint with the USA program as a libero and will be asked back. I think Kelsey is a complete player in that she does all the skills really well and we pride ourselves in developing all-around players.”

32 | 2013 NEBRASKA VOLLEYBALL
The philosophy of John Cook can be summarized in two simple words. Dream Big. When Cook took over the reins of the Nebraska volleyball program, the challenge facing him was daunting. Cook replaced one of the sport’s legendary coaches in Terry Pettit, who won 694 matches and guided the Huskers to 18 consecutive NCAA appearances and six national semifinals. Cook, who left an emerging power in Wisconsin to guide the tradition-rich Husker program, had his own vision for Nebraska volleyball. He saw a program that had even more potential to grow. His goals included consistently selling out home matches at the NU Coliseum, expanding the media exposure for his program and most importantly, continuing the tradition of athletic and academic excellence started by Pettit nearly a quarter of a century earlier. His vision catapulted the program to a new phase in 2013 as the Devaney Center underwent a $20 million renovation and became the new home for Nebraska volleyball. Moving to the Devaney Center increased the capacity crowd for Nebraska volleyball matches from 4,125 at the Coliseum to nearly 8,000 in addition to 400 standing-room-only tickets. In addition, five suites that give a private and expansive view of the action were built on the south side of the building and student seating was drastically increased.
Cook’s vision is for the Huskers to remain at the forefront of college volleyball to enhance the sport at both the local and national levels. Nebraska enters 2013 with an NCAA-record 181 consecutive sellouts at the NU Coliseum - the longest sellout streak in NCAA women’s athletics.
Cook saw the long-range potential of building the audience across the state. He also believed Nebraska could shine by hosting the sport’s championship in the largest setting college volleyball had ever seen. When others saw risks, Cook saw opportunities. In 2006, Cook’s dream was realized, as the Husker Nation had an opportunity to see Nebraska raise the bar in college volleyball. From record-setting, sold-out crowds at the Qwest Center Omaha, to a team that maximized its potential in winning the school’s third national title, the Huskers enjoyed a remarkable season. The Huskers entered the 2006 campaign with many questions, as they were forced to replace three AllAmericans, including AVCA National Player-of-the-Year Christina Houghtelling. With four first-year starters on the court, including freshmen at setter and middle blocker, and sky-high expectations with the NCAA Championships in Omaha for the first time, 2006 shaped up to be Cook’s toughest coaching job to date. Nebraska took on all challenges head-on, going 33-1 and becoming only the third team in NCAA history to
be ranked No. 1 the entire season. The Huskers went on the road and overcame a 2-0 deficit to defeat Minnesota to reach the national semifinals, marking the first time that Nebraska had won a regional outside the state. That victory set the stage for a watershed moment in college volleyball. Behind sellout crowds of over 17,000, the Huskers captured the school’s third national title with victories over No. 4 UCLA and No. 2 Stanford. Four players earned AVCA All-America honors, including Sarah Pavan, who became NU’s first Honda-Broderick Cup winner. Two years later, the NCAA Championships returned to Omaha with another Husker team taking center stage. An all-time NCAA attendance record of 17,430 traveled through a winter storm to witness one of the greatest matches in Nebraska’s illustrious history. After dropping the first two sets to No. 1 Penn State, Nebraska fought back, winning the next two sets to hand the Nittany Lions their only set losses of the 2008 season. Although the Huskers were unable to complete the comeback, the performance symbolized a never-say-quit attitude that fueled the team’s success. Despite losing a pair of performers to season-ending injuries, the Huskers went 31-3 and won their fifth consecutive conference title. At the Seattle Regional, the Huskers overcame a 2-0 deficit to send the match to a fifth set and trailed 9-3 in the fifth set before regrouping and earning the school’s 11th trip to the NCAA semifinals. Jordan Larson, Tara Mueller and Sydney Anderson all earned All-America honors, while Larson was named Big 12 Player of the Year and Defensive Player of the Year, becoming the first player in conference history to sweep both honors. Consistent excellence has been a hallmark of Cook’s Nebraska squads. Over the last decade, Cook has guided the Huskers to a pair of national titles, five NCAA semifinal appearances, nine Big 12 titles and the school’s first Big Ten championship. His teams have compiled a nationalbest 361-34 record, including a 207-13 mark as a member of the Big 12 Conference and a 140-63 record as members of the Big Ten Conference. Overall, Cook is 126-31 against ranked teams at NU, including a 24-12 mark against topfive teams. With Cook at the helm, Nebraska has produced numerous individual honors, including four U.S. National Team members, a Honda-Broderick Cup winner, three AVCA Division I National Players of the Year, two NCAA Top Eight Award winners, 37 AVCA All-Americans, three CoSIDA Academic All-Americans of the Year, 18 CoSIDA Academic All-Americans, six Big 12 Players of the Year and three Big 12 Co-Players of the Year. Husker student-athletes have also combined for 40 first-team All-Big 12 awards and 61 academic All-Big 12 certificates. The Huskers have also earned nine All-Big Ten honors, and 13 academic All-Big Ten accolades.
COACHES & ADMINISTRATION Cook’s accomplishments haven’t gone unnoticed, as he is a two-time AVCA National Coach of the Year, earning the prestigious honor in 2000 and 2005, and a four-time Big 12 Coach of the Year. He is one of only four active coaches - and one of six all-time - to be a two-time AVCA National Coach of the Year and was honored in 2008 by USA Volleyball, receiving its All-Time Great Coach Award. The Huskers posted a 26-7 record in 2012, a historic season the marked the final year at the NU Coliseum. The team advanced to the NCAA Elite Eight as Lauren Cook was named a first-team AVCA All-American, Gina Mancuso and Hannah Werth earned second-team honors and Meghan Haggerty was as an honorable-mention pick. Cook guided the Huskers to a 10-5 record against ranked
teams and topped two No. 1 teams during the course of the season. The Huskers also posted four All-Big Ten picks and seven academic All-Big Ten accolades in 2012. The team recorded its 31st straight trip to the NCAA Tournament and in doing so, improved its all-time tournament record to 86-28. The Huskers have enjoyed unprecedented success over the last eight seasons, making three appearances in the NCAA semifinals. Nebraska has also reached the Elite Eight in seven of the last nine seasons. During the 2011 season the Huskers made history with their first Big Ten Conference title, as they won their 32nd overall conference crown. Nebraska notched an overall record of 25-5 on the year. In addition, Mancuso was named a firstteam AVCA All-American, while Werth, Morgan Broekhuis and Cook were tabbed honorable-mention picks. In 2010 the Huskers won their 12th conference title as a member of the Big 12 with an overall record of 29-3. The team advanced to the NCAA Elite Eight, while Brooke Delano was named an AVCA first-team All-American. Lindsey Licht and Werth were second-team picks. Werth was also tabbed the Big 12 Defensive Player of the Year, John Cook was named Co-Big 12 Coach of the Year and Lauren Cook was the league’s newcomer of the year. During the 2009 season, Nebraska overcame a slow start to play its best volleyball down the stretch. The Huskers won 10 straight matches - all by sweep - before falling to eventual NCAA runner-up Texas in the regional final. NU finished with a 26-7 record and was ranked fifth in the final AVCA poll. Delano and Sydney Anderson earned AVCA All-America honors, while Kori Cooper repeated as a first-team CoSIDA Academic All-American. In 2007, the Huskers set a pair of NCAA single-match attendance records and won the Big 12 title for the fourth consecutive year. The Huskers advanced to the NCAA regional final before a loss to Cal ended a 30-2 season, while a schoolrecord five Huskers earned AVCA All-America awards. Pavan, Houghtelling and Tracy Stalls all earned first-team CoSIDA Academic All-America honors. The 2005 campaign was a special one for the Nebraska program. The Huskers advanced to the national title match for the fifth time in school history and finished with a 33-2 mark. Nebraska led the nation in blocking (4.12 per game)

Nebraska played a regular-season match in North Platte in 2004, and the team has played exhibition matches in Scottsbluff, Ogallala, Wayne, Grand Island and Norfolk over the last decade. In addition, Cook’s efforts have helped Nebraska enjoy one of the most extensive multi-media packages in the country, as every match is carried live on a state-wide radio network and nearly every contest is shown either live on television or streamed live on the Internet. “It is a reflection of Nebraska volleyball and the program, and not about one person or one player,” Cook said when accepting the AVCA Coach-of-the-Year Award in 2005. “We’re trying to be a leader in the sport. We’re trying to take risks and dream big, and fortunately I’m surrounded by a lot of people who have that vision. I’m really proud of what we’re doing to try and enhance the sport.” Three Straight 30-Win Seasons Cook immediately started to create his own legacy after taking over for Pettit. In his first season at the helm, Cook was named the AVCA National Coach of the Year after guiding the Huskers to a 34-0 record and the 2000 national championship. The Huskers, who became just the second team in NCAA history to cap an undefeated season with a national title, were ranked No. 1 in the AVCA/USA Today Top 25 poll for 14 straight weeks. Greichaly Cepero earned AVCA National Player-of-the-Year honors. Three Huskers claimed AVCA AllAmerica certificates, and five Nebraska players were named to the All-Big 12 teams. Laura Pilakowski earned CoSIDA Academic All-America honors, and a conference-best seven Huskers earned academic All-Big 12 recognition. In 2001, Cook’s second season, Nebraska fell just two wins short of capturing another NCAA title. The Huskers, who were ranked either No. 1 or No. 2 in the AVCA poll all season, went 20-0 in the Big 12 and Cook was named the Big 12 Coach of the Year. NU finished the season with a 31-2 record after falling to eventual national champion Stanford in the NCAA semifinals. Nebraska placed four players on the AVCA All-America teams, while right side hitter Nancy Metcalf was selected as an NCAA Top Eight Award winner and was also named the CoSIDA Academic All-American of the Year. Pilakowski and Cepero joined Metcalf on the CoSIDA Academic All-America teams, as Pilakowski earned secondteam honors and Cepero received third-team recognition. In Cook’s third season, the Huskers continued their remarkable success. NU finished the season ranked fifth in the AVCA poll with a 31-2 record to secure its third straight 30-win season. Nebraska produced the most dominant conference season in school history, going 20-0 and losing just two sets en route to winning the league championship for the third straight year.

COACHES & ADMINISTRATION earned first-team AVCA All-America honors, and Pilakowski was recognized on the second team. Pilakowski was named a first-team CoSIDA Academic All-American, and Holmquist was a second-team pick. Cepero, Holmquist and Pilakowski shared Big 12 Player-of-the-Year accolades. Cook faced perhaps his greatest coaching challenge at Nebraska in 2003, when the Huskers had to replace three AllAmericans and their first-ever libero. That season, Cook opted to run a 6-2 (two-setter) offense to utilize as many players as possible. NU went on to finish the season with a 28-5 record and an appearance in the Sweet 16. The 2004 season may have been one of Cook’s best coaching jobs, as a youthful squad that featured five freshmen and sophomores in the lineup went 30-2 and was ranked No. 1 heading into the NCAA Tournament. The Huskers led the nation in both opponent hitting percentage (.103) and blocks per game (4.02) before falling to two-time defending NCAA champion USC in five sets in the regional final. Three Huskers earned AVCA All-America honors, while Pavan was chosen as the AVCA National Freshman of the Year. That group of Huskers became the centerpiece of Nebraska’s consecutive NCAA Finals teams in 2005 and 2006. Building the Badgers Cook, who served as an assistant under Pettit for three seasons from 1988 to 1991, took over the Nebraska head coaching job after serving as associate head coach during the 1999 season. Before returning to Nebraska in 1999, Cook led Wisconsin to six straight postseason appearances in seven seasons as the Badgers’ head coach. Cook’s accomplishments at Wisconsin earned him praise as one of the game’s top young coaches. Cook built the Badgers into a top-10 program during his seven-year career in Madison, which included back-to-back trips to the NCAA regional finals in 1997 and 1998. In his final match at Wisconsin, Cook’s Badgers fell to the Huskers in a three-hour, five-set battle in the 1998 Pacific Regional Championship in the NU Coliseum. Wisconsin ended the season ranked seventh in the final USA Today/AVCA Coaches Poll with a 30-5 record. Cook compiled a 161-73 ledger at the helm of the Badgers, including an 89-51 league mark in one of the nation’s toughest conferences. He was named the Big Ten Co-Coach and AVCA District 2 Coach of the Year in 1997 after leading the Badgers to a share of the Big Ten title with a 19-1 mark and school-best 30-3 overall record. In his seven years at Wisconsin, the Badgers advanced to six straight postseason tournaments, qualifying for the NCAA Tournament in 1993, 1994, 1996, 1997 and 1998. In 1995, Wisconsin won the National Invitational Volleyball

Championship with a perfect 6-0 record. During his tenure at UW, he coached four AVCA All-Americans, nine AVCA All-District award winners, 11 All-Big Ten honorees and two Big Ten Freshmen of the Year. He also coached 21 academic All-Big Ten selections. Other Coaching Experiences Cook also brings Olympic and championship experience to the Husker staff. As the first assistant coach with the U.S. Men’s National Volleyball team, Cook aided the United States to a bronze medal in the 1992 Olympic Games in Barcelona. The team’s defensive coordinator, he was also in charge of scouting and supervising the team’s flexibility, strength and conditioning programs. For his Olympic coaching experience, Cook was honored in June of 1993 at the NACDA/USOC Collegiate Coaches Recognition Awards Luncheon. He also served as the head coach of the Women’s National Volleyball Training Team in 2004. During his first tenure at Nebraska (1989-91), the Huskers advanced to the NCAA semifinals two of the three seasons, including a runner-up finish in 1989. Nebraska went 36-0 in conference play, capturing three Big Eight Conference titles. During that time, he served as Pettit’s recruiting coordinator, chief scout and strength and conditioning coordinator. Cook was also the liaison with the academic advising center. In the U.S. Olympic Festival competition, Cook served as head coach of the bronze medal-winning North team in 1989 and was also an assistant coach with the third-place West team in 1987. A co-founder of the San Diego Volleyball Club, Cook served as a coach with the club from 1986 to 1988. The club won two Southern California Regional Championships and finished among the final four teams twice in the USVBA Junior Olympics for girls 18 and under. Cook also served as the head assistant coach at the University of California-San Diego from 1983 to 1984, where he aided the Tritons to an NCAA Division III national championship in 1984 and a second-place national finish in 1983. Cook’s coaching credentials also include leading Francis Parker High School in San Diego to two California state championships. During his six-year coaching stint from 1981 to 1988, he had an overall record of 162-18, including a 90-match winning streak. A well-known speaker on volleyball skills, Cook travels around the nation participating in clinics. During his stay at Wisconsin, he served as the host of the Badger Coaching Symposium every spring.

NCAA Winningest Active Coaches A licensed pilot, John Cook had an opportunity to fly with the Blue Angels when they we were in town for the Lincoln Air Show.
What is your coaching philosophy? There are four things that come to mind. No. 1, I see myself as a teacher. It was always my dream to be a teacher, and coaching is teaching. No. 2, next to my family and my faith, the people involved with Nebraska volleyball are the most important thing in my life. Third we like to recruit great athletes and are flexible enough to create a system that takes advantage of the strengths of the players in our program, so our players can reach their full potential. How can we make each athlete the best volleyball player they can be? That’s the question we try to answer. Finally, our players are committed to academic excellence and becoming complete studentathletes. What do you enjoy most about coaching at Nebraska? There are two things that make coaching at Nebraska so special. First, it is the passion of the people across the state for our team. There is a love affair between our players and the fans across the state. Second, is that our players are great young women who work hard, make great choices and are excellent students. In 2006, we won an NCAA title, as well as the Life Skills Award for the athletic department. We have a group of people who are committed to giving back to the community and understand that there is more to college life than volleyball. When you are recruiting a potential student-athlete, what are Nebraska’s biggest selling points? I think the best thing for a recruit to do is see our team play. We play at a high level, but what may be most important, is how we play. It’s a very exciting brand of volleyball based on great athletes moving very quickly and transitioning very fast. We’ve always had a reputation of taking great athletes and training them to become exceptional volleyball players. We have a great academic tradition with our academic support staff, the Hewit Center and our Student Life Complex. We lead the nation in academic All-America honors, NCAA Top Ten Award winners and the majority of our players go on to graduate school following their playing careers. I think another important factor is the exposure our program receives. Our goal is to be on the cutting edge. We are the only program in the country that has its own volleyball radio network and nearly every match shown live on the Internet. This gives us opportunities to connect with our fans, and has played a major role in our sellout streak. Our school’s rich volleyball tradition over the years also plays an important role in recruiting. In many cases, people know they were meant to be here.
What do you look for in a recruit? Academically we have a tradition of great studentathletes. Because the program’s emphasis is on being accountable, the program attracts people who have already been successful in the classroom. But we’ve also taken some people who were merely good students and helped them become great students. In addition to looking for great student-athletes, the players we attract to Nebraska are ones who not only have the athletic ability to be successful, but also are highly competitive. They don’t shy away from challenges, whether it is in practices or in matches because they know it will allow them to reach their full potential as a player. We are also in a unique situation at Nebraska where our student-athletes have a platform to make a difference in people’s lives. We look for people who are going to embrace that opportunity and give back to the community. Talk about your program’s emphasis on developing players for their post-collegiate careers? At Nebraska, we believe that the program we put in place gives our players a chance to play beyond their college career. When I was with the men’s national team for the 1992 Olympics, I got an understanding of what it takes to be the best in the world. We’ve tried to implement that at Nebraska and call it Training the Whole Athlete. It just doesn’t mean we are going to make them a great volleyball player. Obviously, we are going to do that and our program’s success reflects that. We are going to train them mentally on how to compete at the highest level and continue on if they elect to do so. It is also about getting them to understand the self-discipline it takes to work in the weight room, understanding their bodies and knowing how to take care of them in areas such as flexibility, recovery and nutrition. Our mission in this program is two-fold. One is prepare them if they want to have a professional career. Second, many of our former players are going into coaching, and they are leaving Nebraska armed with lots of information. If they can go into coaching, they have the ability to make a tremendous impact on the lives of other people with that information. It is a two-fold mission, and we feel that our program has a great understanding and implements it as well as anyone in the country in a college setting.

measure that is by how many of them go into coaching after they graduate. Over 50 percent of our former players are in the coaching ranks, whether it is at the college, high school or club level. The second thing we want them to understand is the importance of giving back. At Nebraska, our players are viewed by the public and kids in the state with almost a rock star status. What we hope they learned at Nebraska is to use that platform to create a positive message and take that lesson throughout their lives.
What do you hope student-athletes take from their years with the Nebraska volleyball program? First, we hope they have the opportunity to play professionally. We’ve had countless former players play around the world and that is a testament to their hard work in reaching their playing potential. Another way we

Dan Meske (pronounced MESS-key) is in his seventh season with the Huskers and third season as a full time assistant. He was promoted prior to the 2011 season after serving as the teams volunteer coach in 2009 and 2010. Meske also served as the team’s graduate manager in 2007 and 2008. Meske is in charge of coordinating the Huskers’ blocking and defense as well as video scouting, team managers and assisting with camps. On the court, he trains NU’s middle blockers. In his six seasons at Nebraska, Meske has helped the Huskers to a 167-27 record, three Big 12 Championships, a Big Ten Championship, six NCAA Tournament appearances, four regional finals, and an appearance in the 2008 NCAA Semifinals. In 2012, Meske helped the Huskers to a berth in the NCAA Regional Finals and a second-place finish in the Big Ten Conference. The Huskers posted a record of 26-7 improving their tournament record to 86-28 while making their 31st straight trip to the NCAA Tournament. In addition, Lauren Cook, Gina Mancuso and Hannah Werth all earned AVCA All-America honors, giving Nebraska a total of 74 All-America certificates. The Huskers also posted four All-Big Ten picks and seven academic All-Big Ten accolades. During the 2011 season the Huskers made history with their first Big Ten Conference title as they won their 32nd overall conference crown. Nebraska recorded an overall record of 25-5 on the year. The team recorded its 30th straight trip to the NCAA Tournament. Mancuso captured first-team AVCA All-America honors, while Werth, Morgan Broekhuis and Cook were tabbed honorable mention picks. NU notched five All-Big Ten picks as well as six academic All-Big Ten selections. In 2010 the Huskers won their 12th Big 12 Conference title with an overall record of 29-3. Meske was key in the continued development of right side hitter Lindsey Licht, who earned second-team AVCA All-America accolades as a senior in 2010. She led the team in kills with 2.81 per set and was second in blocks with a career-best 1.05 per set. During the 2009 season, Nebraska overcame a slow start to play its best volleyball down the stretch. The Huskers won 10 straight matches - all by sweep - before falling to eventual national runner-up Texas in the regional final. NU finished with a 26-7 record and was ranked fifth in the final AVCA poll. Following the season at the annual AVCA Convention, Meske earned the association’s inaugural AVCA Coaches 4 Coaches Scholarship Award.

Shawn Eichorst was named the 14th Director of Athletics of the University of Nebraska by Chancellor Harvey Perlman on Oct. 4, 2012. Eichorst leads a tradition-rich athletic program of 24 varsity athletic teams, 600-plus student-athletes and more than 275 full-time employees. Eichorst succeeded legendary Nebraska football coach and Athletic Director Tom Osborne and officially assumed his duties on Jan. 3rd, 2013. “I am honored to have the opportunity to join the University of Nebraska family,” Eichorst said. “Nebraska is an outstanding academic institution with one of the strongest athletic departments in all of college sports,” Eichorst said. “Most importantly, everyone here is committed to keeping the welfare of our student-athletes at the heart of everything we do. I am humbled by the responsibility and opportunities that lie ahead and will work diligently to carry on the rich tradition of Husker excellence set forth by Coach Osborne and so many others.” Nebraska Chancellor Harvey Perlman said it was Eichorst’s commitment to putting student-athletes first that made Eichorst stand out. “When I asked him how I would be able to measure his success if he were here five years from now,” Perlman said, “his response was that if the coaches and student-athletes had been successful and nobody knows his name, it would be a success.” Although his preference is to serve and lead diligently from the background, Eichorst has already canvassed the state promoting Husker Athletics and Nebraska’s tremendously talented student-athletes making more than 70 appearances across Nebraska and visiting eight other states in just his first seven months. Eichorst emphasizes academics first and is proud to acknowledge Nebraska’s nation-leading 304 Academic All-Americans, including five who earned the honor in 2012-13. In fact, he has invited all of the academic honor winners back to campus for a reunion in November. He has met with each college dean on campus and uses his monthly radio show and his Connecting on Campus column to promote campus, coach and student-athlete academic and community successes. More than 200 Husker student-athletes were honored at the academic recognition banquet this spring while 138 were named Academic All-Big Ten in 2012-13. During Eichorst’s first semester at Nebraska in the spring of 2013, women’s bowling, coached by legend Bill Straub, won a national title and Rhonda Revelle’s softball team advanced to the Women’s College World Series. The women’s basketball team, coached by Connie Yori, completed a run to the Sweet 16 for the second time in program history and the women’s tennis team, coached by Scott Jacobson, made an appearance in the Sweet 16 for the first time in program history and earned a share of the Big Ten title. Tennis player Mary Weatherholt finished runner-up at the NCAA Singles Championship, the highest-ever finish for a Nebraska tennis player. In addition to women’s tennis, two other Nebraska teams added Big Ten titles in the spring of 2013, as the women’s gymnastics team, coached by Dan Kendig, won its secondstraight Big Ten title and third-straight conference title overall. The men’s track and field team, coached by Gary Pepin, claimed the outdoor team title. This fall, three facility projects will be completed: Memorial Stadium, which expands to accommodate more than 90,000 football fans and will include the Nebraska Athletic Performance Laboratory (NAPL) and the Center for Brain, Biology and Behavior (CB3) research facilities; Pinnacle Bank Arena in downtown Lincoln, where the Husker men’s and women’s basketball teams will be permanent tenants; and the renovated Bob Devaney Sports Center, where volleyball, men’s and women’s gymnastics and the wrestling team will now compete. Construction for each of these three facilities began with Coach Osborne at the helm. Athletic Director Emeritus Osborne continues to provide Eichorst with counsel on a number of items including the East Stadium research initiatives. The collaborative research that will take place within an athletic facility shared by academics and athletics is believed to be the first of its kind and sets the tone for the leadership role Nebraska has taken in the Big Ten Conference and nationally. Eichorst came to Nebraska after spending 18 months as the Director of Athletics at the University of Miami. He was named
the 12th Director of Athletics at Miami on April 12, 2011 and served until Oct. 4, 2012 when he was hired by Nebraska as a Special Assistant to Chancellor Perlman. In his first year as Director of Athletics at Miami, Eichorst helped grow the academic reputation as well as the fan base. Under his watchful eye, the Hurricane Club grew by more than 500 members, surpassing 5,000 members nationwide. More than $19 million in student-athlete support was generated in 2011-12 and an additional $14.2 million in capital gifts was raised toward the new Center for Athletic Excellence facility, scheduled for completion in the fall of 2013. During his tenure, both the Hurricane men’s and women’s basketball programs advanced to the postseason, with the women posting the highest national ranking in school history at No. 5, advancing to the NCAA Second Round. The women’s tennis team advanced to the NCAA quarterfinals for the fourth straight season and the baseball program extended its NCAA postseason appearances streak to 40 consecutive seasons. The women’s soccer team posted the first NCAA postseason win in program history, while the volleyball team advanced to the NCAA postseason for the third straight year and finished the season ranked 15th in the nation. Before his appointment at Miami, Eichorst served from 2009 to 2011 as the Deputy Athletics Director at the University of Wisconsin, where his responsibilities under Director of Athletics Barry Alvarez included serving as the department’s Chief Operating Officer and overseeing the day-to-day operations of the highly successful athletics program. At Wisconsin, Eichorst was involved in the design and planning of a new ice hockey and swimming facility completed in the fall of 2012, as well as with the StudentAthlete Performance Center in the north end zone of Camp Randall Stadium. He joined the Badgers’ staff in 2006 as a Senior Associate Athletics Director and was promoted to Executive Associate Athletics Director in 2007. Eichorst has experience with three BCS conference institutions previously serving as University of South Carolina’s Senior Associate Athletics Director for Administration from 2004 to 2006. With the Gamecocks, Eichorst oversaw daily operations of the department and supervised the football and baseball programs. The football team was bowl-eligible each year during Eichorst’s tenure, and the baseball program competed in the 2004 College World Series. Additionally, he coordinated and supervised multi-million dollar facility projects, including a state-of-theart football training facility. Eichorst served as the Director of Athletics at his alma mater, University of Wisconsin-Whitewater until 2003. Under his tenure, UW-Whitewater developed into one of the nation’s top Division III athletic programs, with four top 10 percent National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA) Directors Cup finishes; one NCAA team championship; two NCAA team runner-up finishes and five individual national champions. The program also featured 38 Academic All-America selections, seven NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship winners and 74 All-Americans. A native of Lone Rock, Wis., Eichorst was an all-conference defensive back, a three-time letterwinner and 1990 team captain for the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater football team. He graduated magna cum laude in business from UWWhitewater in 1990 and earned a law degree from Marquette University in 1995.

COACHES & ADMINISTRATION
Compliance Information/Guidelines for Fans The University of Nebraska Athletic Department takes great pride in abiding by the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) and the Big Ten Conference rules and guidelines that govern Division I competition. For the benefit of the many alumni, fans and booster club members who are so active in supporting and assisting the Huskers throughout the year, we would like to remind everyone of a few definitions and rules that apply to all athletic representatives and boosters.
NCAA Principles
Institutional Control
It is the responsibility of the University of Nebraska to control its intercollegiate athletic program in compliance with the rules and regulations of the NCAA.
Responsibility
The University of Nebraska’s responsibility for the conduct of its program includes responsibility for the actions of its staff members and for the actions of any other individual, booster or organization engaged in activities promoting the athletic interests of the institution.
Compliance
The University of Nebraska must monitor its program to assure compliance and to identify and report to the NCAA instances in which compliance has not been achieved. An institution found to have violated NCAA rules is subject to disciplinary and corrective actions as determined by the NCAA.
Question and Answers for Fans, Boosters, Alumni and Representatives of Athletic Interests Definitions
Q: What is a booster? A: Someone who belongs to a University of Nebraska athletic booster club; promotes or makes financial donations to the athletic department or a specific Husker team; assists in the recruitment of prospective student-athletes; employs, gives benefits to, or provides services to a student-athlete, a prospective student-athlete or the relative/friends of either. REPRESENTATIVE OF ATHLETIC INTERESTS (I.E., BOOSTERS), NCAA BYLAW 13 Q: What is a Prospective Student-Athlete? A: A prospective student-athlete is a student who has started classes for the ninth grade or above, including students in prep schools and junior colleges as well as students who have officially withdrawn from a four-year institution and plan to transfer to another institution. In addition, a student who has not started classes for the ninth grade becomes a prospective student-athlete if the institution or a Nebraska booster provides the individual or the individual’s relatives or friends with any financial assistance or benefits that the institution does not provide to prospective students in general. A good rule of thumb is to treat ALL STUDENTS as prospects. Q: What is a Student-Athlete? A: A student-athlete is a student whose enrollment was solicited by a member of the Nebraska athletic staff or other representative of athletic interests with a view toward the student’s ultimate participation in the intercollegiate athletic program. Q: What is a contact? A: Contact is ANY face-to-face encounter between a prospect, or the prospect’s parent or legal guardian, and a Nebraska staff member or athletic representative during which any dialogue occurs. Q: What is recruiting? A: Recruiting is any solicitation of a prospect or a prospect’s family member (or guardian) by an institutional staff member or by athletic representative of the institution, for the purpose of securing the prospect’s enrollment and ultimate participation in Nebraska’s intercollegiate athletic program.
Guidelines
Q: What is a Booster? A: Someone who belongs to a University of Nebraska athletic booster club; promotes or makes financial donations to the athletic department or a specific Husker team; assists in the recruitment of prospective student-athletes; employs, gives benefits to, or provides services to a student-athlete, a prospective student-athlete or the relative/friends of either. REPRESENTATIVE OF ATHLETIC INTERESTS (I.E., BOOSTERS), NCAA BYLAW 13
46 | 2013 NEBRASKA VOLLEYBALL
Q: What constitutes impermissible contact by a Booster? A: Phone calls to prospects (9th to 12th grade) and their relatives placed for recruiting purposes (questions about the athletic program at UNL must be directed to the coach); writing, paging, text messages or instant messages to a prospect to encourage UNL attendance; contact with a prospect at a high school or club contest; contact with a prospect or his/her coach, principal, or counselor to evaluate the prospect; visiting the prospect’s educational institution to pick up videotape or transcripts for evaluation purposes; contacting a prospect to congratulate him/her for signing a National Letter of Intent to attend UNL; giving anything of value to a prospect to induce him/her to attend UNL; contact of any kind while the prospect is on the UNL campus for an official or unofficial visit. RECRUITING CONTACTS, NCAA BYLAW 13 Q: What are the rules of employment for a student-athlete? A: A student-athlete may be employed during the academic year or summer vacation period; receive compensation equal to the going rate for similar services in the locale; receive compensation only for work performed; receive benefits provided to all other employees; teach sport-related individual skill instruction or fee-for-lesson sessions. A student-athlete may not conduct personal sport camps or promote, market, advertise or endorse a commercial business or product. Only benefits that are authorized by NCAA legislation shall be provided to and accepted by a student-athlete. It is not permissible for a student-athlete to receive a benefit that is the result of a “special” arrangement by an institutional employee, booster, employer or fan. EMPLOYMENT, NCAA BYLAW 12 Q: What are non-permissible benefits? A: Free or reduced-fee housing/rent including the use of vacation or seasonal homes; free or reduced-fee meals; loans or cash advances in pay or salary; tuition costs or school supply expenses; gifts or presents of any type regardless of the occasion or purpose; use of telephone for long distance or use of telephone cards and cell phones; free use of any motor vehicle, boat or recreational vehicle; free use of services (i.e., automobile repair, hair care, laundry, copying, faxing, etc.); free or reduced-fee memberships at golf courses, health clubs, etc. (This list is not exhaustive. Only benefits that are authorized by NCAA legislation shall be provided to and accepted by a student-athlete. It is not permissible for a student-athlete to receive a benefit that is the result of a “special” arrangement by an institutional employee, booster, employer or fan.) BENEFITS AND PREFERENTIAL TREATMENT, NCAA BYLAW 16 Q: What type of promotional activities may the student-athlete be permitted to participate? A: Charitable, educational or non-profit promotions and events with requested approval from the Athletic Compliance Office prior to the event. Q: What types of promotional activities are not permissible? A: Any fundraising activity that supports a high school organization or group that assists prospective-aged students; use of his/her name or picture; or appear to promote or market a commercial business or product. PROMOTIONAL ACTIVITIES, NCAA BYLAW 12 For further information regarding NCAA Guidelines for Athletic Representatives, please contact the athletic compliance office at (402) 472-2042 or 1-(800) 927-7220. Inquiries may also be mailed to: Athletic Compliance Office, One Memorial Stadium, P.O. Box 880219, Lincoln, NE, 68588-0219. Questions can also be faxed to (402) 472-4609 or e-mailed to compliance@huskers.com. Notice of NCAA Probation From 2007 to 2010 the University of Nebraska unintentionally reimbursed studentathletes for recommended textbooks as well as required textbooks through a failure to properly administer and monitor book scholarships. Only reimbursement for required books is permissible under NCAA rules. As a result the NCAA placed the University of Nebraska on two-year probation, beginning in January 2012. The NCAA did not impose additional penalties such as the loss of scholarships, forfeiture of games or a ban on postseason play. Rather, as a condition of probation we will continue to educate studentathletes and staff thoroughly on NCAA bylaws and will notify prospective student-athletes of our probationary status.

2012 Review

SEASON IN REVIEW
HUskers Make NCAA Regional Finals in 2012 The 2012 season was full of high expectations throughout the Nebraska volleyball program as Head Coach John Cook returned five seniors, including All-America setter Lauren Cook as well as All-American outside hitters Gina Mancuso and Hannah Werth. The team also returned honorablemention All-America right-side hitter Morgan Broekhuis and Nebraska’s all-time freshman digs leader libero Lara Dykstra. The season marked a historic year as the Huskers bid farewell to the NU Coliseum after 37 years of competition. The NU Coliseum was the home for Nebraska volleyball since 1975 and provided a unique home-court advantage for NU. Nebraska’s run at a fourth national title started with a pivotal match-up with defending national champion and No. 1 UCLA at the NU Coliseum on Aug. 25. In front of a sellout crowd and a national-television audience, the No. 4 Huskers took the first two sets from the Bruins, while UCLA came back to take the next two sets, before the Huskers earned a 15-13 fifth-set victory. The win catapulted the Huskers to a No. 1 national ranking. Nebraska came away from the opening weekend of play with an undefeated record, defeating St. Louis on Aug. 24 and Notre Dame on Aug. 26 at the CenturyLink Center in Omaha. NU turned its attention to the Ameritas Players Challenge as Oklahoma, Duquesne and Kentucky all paid a visit to the NU Coliseum. The Huskers swept both the Sooners and the Dukes before facing No. 19 Kentucky. Still sitting in the top spot nationally, the Huskers outlasted the Wildcats in a 3-1 victory. Cook and Mancuso were both named to the Ameritas Players Challenge All-Tournament team, while Hannah Werth was named the tournament team’s MVP. The Huskers opened the 2012 Big Ten slate with a showdown against the No. 4 Penn State Nittany Lions. The two teams battled throughout the match, but the Huskers suffered their first defeat, 3-1. Nebraska traveled to Columbus, Ohio, the following Saturday to clash with the Ohio State Buckeyes. The Huskers rebounded from their loss to Penn State with a 3-1 win at St. John Arena. Michigan State met the Huskers at home on Wednesday, Sept. 26, as NU used its momentum from the Ohio State match to sweep the Spartans 3-0. Four Huskers hit better than .400 in the match. Nebraska then hosted Michigan and took down the Wolverines, 3-1. In a pivotal conference match-up, Nebraska traveled to West Lafayette, Ind., to face the Purdue Boilermakers. The Huskers came out ready for the Purdue attack and swept the Boilermakers in straight sets. The following evening, Nebraska faced a scrappy Indiana Hoosiers squad that took the Huskers to the brink. After NU won the first set 25-23, the Hoosiers took set two, 25-18 and set three, 2520. Nebraska responded with a 25-17 fourth-set win before capturing the fifth set, 15-10. The third-ranked Huskers returned home to the NU Coliseum on Friday, Oct. 12, and swept the Wisconsin Badgers 3-0. Nebraska then turned its attention to a conference showdown with No. 10 Minnesota. The Gophers came to Lincoln hungry for an upset. In front of another sold-out crowd and an ESPN2 national-television audience, Nebraska powered its way to a 3-1 win over the Gophers.

A pair of consecutive sweeps followed as the Huskers traveled to Iowa City, Iowa on Wednesday, Oct. 17, and Champaign, Ill., on Sunday, Oct. 21. Nebraska took down both teams in three sets. A nine-match win streak followed the Huskers to an Oct. 26 match-up with the Ohio State Buckeyes at the NU Coliseum. On a night devoted to Nebraska’s alumni, the Buckeyes defeated the Huskers 3-1. Following the match the Huskers honored over 60 alumni who were present, while Coach Cook and Coach Terry Pettit spoke to the 4,168 in attendance. The No. 4 Huskers responded on Sunday, Oct. 28 as No. 1 Penn State came to Lincoln. It appeared like the top-ranked Nittany Lions would be too much to handle as they took the first set 25-12 over the Huskers. However, the NU Coliseum came alive in the second set as the NU faithful willed the Huskers to a 32-30 second-set win, setting the tone for what would be a classic Nebraska volleyball match. The Huskers came out of intermission and dropped the third set 25-12, but NU responded in the fourth set with a 25-23 win. NU closed out the fifth set with a 15-10 win, taking the match 3-2 and cementing another Coliseum thriller in the history books. A grueling road schedule challenged the Huskers after their five-set win, as Nebraska traveled to Michigan and Michigan State. After winning the first two sets, Nebraska could not close out the win and overcome a five-set effort by Michigan on Nov. 2, as the Wolverines notched a 3-2 comeback win at Cliff Keen Arena. The test the following night proved just as difficult as the strength of the Big Ten became more and more evident. Nebraska fell 3-2 to Michigan State. The Huskers trailed 1-0 and came back to even the match at two sets apiece before eventually falling in the fifth set. Nebraska came home to face Indiana on Friday, Nov. 9. The Huskers beat the Hoosiers 3-1 before taking down Purdue 3-2 on Nov. 10. The Huskers were faced with a test at No. 14 Minnesota on Nov. 16. A packed crowd and spirited Gopher squad greeted the Huskers at the Sports Pavilion on the campus of the University of Minnesota. Nebraska dropped the first set 25-12, but responded with 25-15 and 25-22 second and third set wins. Minnesota won the fourth set 25-19, while the two teams went to the brink in the fifth set, with Nebraska eventually falling 21-19 and losing a heartbreaker 3-2.
Nebraska came back the following Sunday with a 3-0 win at Wisconsin. NU went on to close out the Big Ten and regular season with a pair of wins at home. NU swept Iowa 3-0 on Wednesday, Nov. 21, before taking down Northwestern 3-1 on Saturday, Nov. 24. Nebraska opened the postseason with a pair of sweeps over Maryland-Eastern Shore and Northern Iowa. The win over Northern Iowa punched NU’s ticket to the Omaha Regional the following weekend and advanced the Huskers to the Sweet 16 for the 29th time in 31 all-time trips to the postseason. With two wins down and four to go, Nebraska didn’t have to travel far for NCAA Regional action with Washington, Oregon and BYU. In the NCAA Regional Semifinal, the fourth-seeded Huskers handed No. 13 seed Washington its only sweep of the season, defeating the Huskies 25-14, 2521, 25-23 in front of 8,954 fans at the CenturyLink Center in Omaha. The Huskers advanced to the NCAA Regional Final with Oregon the following evening. Nebraska’s run for another national title ended on Saturday, Dec. 8. The fifth-seeded Ducks advanced to their first NCAA Semifinals in school history, rallying from a slow start to post a 3-1 victory over fourth-seeded Nebraska in front of 9,382 fans at the CenturyLink Center. The Huskers dominated the first set of the regional final in a 25-15 victory, but the Ducks won the next three sets, 25-22, 25-18 and 25-17. The Huskers ended the year with a 26-7 overall record, a 15-5 record in conference play and a No. 7 national ranking in the final AVCA Coaches Poll. NU’s nation-leading AllAmerica total grew to 74, as Cook led the charge with a first-team selection, while Mancuso and Werth earned second-team honors. Freshman middle blocker Meghan Haggerty was chosen as an honorable-mention selection. On the conference level, Cook, Mancuso and Werth claimed first-team All-Big Ten honors, while Haggerty earned AllFreshman accolades and Allison McNeal was selected as the Sportsmanship Award honoree. Mancuso led the team academically as she was named to the Capital One Academic All-America Division I volleyball team, as chosen by the College Sports Information Directors of America. Her award made her Nebraska’s 302nd all-time Academic AllAmerican across all sports. In volleyball alone, Nebraska has a nation-leading 37 Academic All-Americans. Mancuso was honored the following week with her selection as the 2012 Senior CLASS Award winner in NCAA Division I volleyball.

NU Volleyball: A Championship Tradition
Nebraska’s club volleyball program in the early 1970s set the foundation for the Huskers’ early successes.
by Mike Babcock A bulletin advertising an opening for the head volleyball coach’s job at Nebraska had been discarded in a wastebasket in the coaches’ office at Louisburg College. Paul Sanderford, the first-year head coach of the women’s basketball team at the North Carolina junior college, retrieved the bulletin from the wastebasket and handed it to Terry Pettit, the school’s head volleyball coach. Without that assist from Sanderford, Pettit, an aspiring English teacher with a background in creative writing and poetry as well as coaching, would not have known about the opening. If he had not known about the opening, he would not have applied. And if he had not applied and been hired, the history of Husker volleyball would have been altered dramatically, because he and Husker volleyball became one and the same. Pettit was the Nebraska volleyball coach from 1977 to 1999 – all but two years of the program’s first 25 years of existence. Pat Sullivan, the Huskers’ first volleyball coach, compiled an 83-21 record in two seasons of competition sanctioned by the Association of Intercollegiate Athletics for Women. Before 1975, Nebraska didn’t sponsor women’s athletic teams. If women wanted to compete, they did so on loosely organized and unfunded club teams. It had been that way since the early 1900s, when a women’s basketball team occasionally competed against teams from outside the University. Basketball was introduced in the university’s physical education classes for sophomore women in 1896, and as was the case with male students, class teams competed against each other. Nebraska’s first All-University women’s team was organized in 1896 and included the best players regardless of class, according to the Nebraska State Journal. The team never lost, which should not be surprising, given how it was chosen and the quality of its intramural competition. The first women’s basketball game played before an audience was part of the University’s sixth annual gymnasium exhibition in the spring of 1897, according to Phyllis Kay Wilke’s “Physical Education for Women at Nebraska University, 1879-1923,” published in Nebraska History in the spring of 1975. Louise Pound seems to have been the driving force in women’s basketball at Nebraska, organizing as well as playing on the earliest teams. She was captain of the first team to play against an opponent from outside the University in March of 1898. Pound, who also was the first

All-University tennis champion, scored 11 points in a 15-7 victory against a team from Council Bluffs, Iowa. In April of 1901, the university sponsored a women’s state tournament under Pound’s direction at Grant Memorial Hall. Nebraska was represented by an A team and a B team in a field that included teams from the Omaha YWCA, Lincoln High School and Wahoo High School. Nebraska’s A team won the two-day competition and a month later won a rematch with the Omaha YWCA in Omaha. In November of 1901, Nebraska played a team from the University of Missouri at Grant Hall, “the first intercollegiate match for girls ever played in the west,” according to the Nebraska State Journal. Missouri was no match for its more experienced — and to that point undefeated — opponent, losing 31-4. The Nebraska women did not suffer their first defeat until 1904, when they lost to a team from the University of Minnesota at Minneapolis after opening an abbreviated schedule by shutting out a team from the Lincoln YWCA. The Nebraska women avenged the Minnesota loss two weeks later in Lincoln. The Nebraska women played games against the University of Minnesota, home-and-home two weeks apart, again in March of 1908, losing both, the second after a five-minute overtime.
Before the Minnesota games, Nebraska had defeated Nebraska Wesleyan to finish what was to be its final season with a 1-2 record against outside competition. University women were not allowed to compete in basketball, as well as other sports, only in physical education classes after April 24, 1908. In response to the concerns of faculty members, who considered such activity inappropriate, the University board of regents abolished intercollegiate athletics for women. If not for the passing of Title IX by Congress in 1972, there probably would not be women’s intercollegiate athletics now. Initially, “there wasn’t an embracing of women’s athletics,” Pettit said. “It’s like any civil rights movement almost. It’s tolerated, and you have to educate the public as to what it means. Today if you asked on a ballot if women should have the opportunity to compete in sports, there would be an overwhelming majority of people who would support it. But that wasn’t the case in the 1970s. “One of the things that allowed Nebraska to be successful was that we jumped in with both feet,” Pettit said. “Nebraska decided: ‘Well, if we’re going to do this, let’s do it well.’ Whereas some schools were hesitant to get going, Nebraska was one of the first to offer scholarships. In any endeavor, if you’re among the first, that gives you a tremendous advantage, and you continue to reap the benefits years later.” Under Pettit’s direction, volleyball became to Husker women’s athletics what football is to the Nebraska men’s program. Pettit’s teams advanced to the NCAA Tournament semifinals six times, and his 1995 team won the national championship, defeating Texas in the finals at Amherst, Mass. The 1995 Huskers finished 32-1, with their only loss coming against Stanford in the second match of the season. Senior Allison Weston was the AVCA Co-Player of the Year and among three first-team All-Americans from Nebraska. The others were Christy Johnson and Lisa Reitsma. Weston, a middle blocker, earned first-team AllAmerica honors three times, the first Husker to do so. But Nebraska consistently has been represented on All-America teams since 1980, when Terri Kanouse became the Huskers’ first volleyball All-American, as selected by the AIAW. Three Huskers have earned All-America honors from the American Volleyball Coaches Association in the same

season 16 times since 1984, most recently in 2011, when Gina Mancuso captured All-America honors. After the 1999 season, Pettit turned the program over to his long-time friend and former NU assistant coach, John Cook. Cook arrived at Nebraska with impressive credentials after building the Wisconsin volleyball program into a national power, and he wasted no time making his mark at NU. In what was supposed to be a transition year, Cook led the Huskers to a perfect 34-0 record and the 2000 NCAA title. The following season, Cook again guided the Huskers to the NCAA semifinals, where they lost to eventual national champion Stanford. After two regional finals and a regional semifinal, the Huskers returned to the national title match in 2005 and won the school’s third NCAA title in 2006, defeating Stanford, 3-1, in front of a then-NCAA record crowd of 17,209 at the Qwest Center. In 11 years, Cook has guided Nebraska to a 336-29 record, a pair of national titles, five NCAA semifinal appearances and nine Big 12 championships. During the Big 12 era, Cook’s teams were an amazing 207-13. The tradition that Cook continues to build began in 1978, when Kanouse and Shandi Pettine were the first Nebraska volleyball players to be recruited with full scholarships. By 1981, Pettit could award 12 scholarships. “We had a full complement,” he said. “And that put us ahead of some schools.” Those first Nebraska teams included primarily in-state athletes. But Kanouse was from Indiana and Pettine was from Colorado, evidence not only of Pettit’s interest in expanding the Huskers’ recruiting base, but also of the respect his program was earning beyond the state’s borders. Fiona Nepo, one of only 12 setters in NCAA history to earn All-America certificates three times came from Honolulu, Hawaii. Karen Dahlgren, an All-American in 1985 and 1986, and Lynae Loseke, whose career was cut short by a knee injury, walked on, another element of the volleyball program’s consistent success shared by the football program. “We don’t have 50 walk-ons, but if we can get one good one a year, it pays off,” Pettit said. The 1981 and 1982 recruits, which included Cathy Noth (from Iowa) and Mary Buysse (from Minnesota), gave the Huskers “two really good classes in a row,” Pettit said. And, except for Dahlgren, who redshirted, they helped get Nebraska into the NCAA Tournament for the first time. The Huskers had qualified for the AIAW National Tournament in 1978 at Tuscaloosa, Ala., but “there was no

excitement because nobody here got to see the matches,” Pettit said. That changed in 1982, when Nebraska defeated a Penn State team coached by Russ Rose (Pettit’s assistant in 1978 and 1979) in the NCAA Tournament’s first round before a large and enthusiastic crowd at the NU Coliseum. “That was a dramatic step for the program,” Pettit said. “It was the first time we really had an opportunity to market something. I don’t think anything changes the perception of an athletic program like hosting an NCAA event. From then on, we were always playing, always hosting.” The Huskers have qualified for 31 consecutive NCAA Tournaments, which “may be our biggest achievement is the consistency. We’re always very competitive,” Pettit said. Nebraska reached the NCAA finals for the first time in 1986, Dahlgren’s senior season, defeating Stanford in the semifinals but losing to Pacific on its home court in Stockton, Calif. Three seasons later, the persistent Huskers were back in the NCAA title match, losing to Long Beach State (after defeating top-ranked UCLA) at Honolulu, Hawaii. Pettit realized then that his program had progressed to a point where winning the national championship was a realistic goal. Several other factors contributed to the success of the Nebraska volleyball program, including the Coliseum, which was refurbished and reconfigured specifically as a
volleyball facility in 1992. The intimacy of the Coliseum was a significant factor in growing fan support, which has kept Nebraska among the nation’s leaders in attendance, annually ranking in the top three nationally, including second in 2012. Nebraska sold out its last 181 straight matches at the 4,030-seat Coliseum, dating back to 2001. In addition, the Huskers annually played a match at the Bob Devaney Sports Center, which was remodeled specifically to be the new home of Husker volleyball in 2013. Nebraska sold out nearly 8,000 season tickets in the reconfigured Devaney Center for its inaugural season. Nebraska set an NCAA regular-season attendance record on Sept. 11, 2009, as a sellout crowd of 13,870 watched the Huskers take on UCLA. Nebraska’s fans have consistently shattered volleyball attendance records. In 2008, Nebraska drew an NCAA record crowd of 17,430 for the NCAA semifinals at the Qwest Center. The four largest crowds at the NCAA Women’s Volleyball Championship have been set in Omaha. Fans also know what to expect from the Husker teams that play there. “They know what type of effort they’re going to see,” Pettit said. “The fans are only 10 or 15 feet removed from the playing court, so they can tell whether or not there’s enthusiasm, whether or not people (the athletes) are communicating. That’s what they really come to see. It certainly helps that Nebraska wins. The winning gets you there the first time. But you can’t have a great enterprise, whether it be a business or an athletic team, unless you have an identity. “People have that feeling about Nebraska volleyball. They know exactly what it is. They know what type of athlete is on the court. They know the style of play. They know the effort. They know the consistency. They know that she’s a good student. And they know that she’s a solid citizen when she goes on to her career after volleyball.” The attraction wasn’t immediate. Though the program has been successful from the beginning, it experienced some lean times as far as interest and support. “It’s been a slow, consistent growth,” Pettit said. “I think that fits Nebraskans. They aren’t real impressed with flash or something that just happens in the short term. What they want to see is progress over the long run. ‘Show me that you’ll continue to get the job done.’ If you do that, then they’ll ride with you even when things aren’t so good.”
The Huskers celebrate match point against Wisconsin to win the 2000 NCAA title. Nebraska went 34-0 to earn its second national title.

A Magical Season
Nebraska enjoyed a storybook season in 2006, putting together a 33-1 record en route to the school’s third national title. Despite the loss of AVCA National Player of the Year Christina Houghtelling before the start of preseason practice and a lineup that featured three new starters, the Huskers won their first 23 matches, including 18 sweeps, before suffering their only loss of the year. The Huskers rebounded by losing just one game over the next seven matches before running into their toughest test of the postseason. One game away from the national semifinals in Omaha, the Huskers overcame a 2-0 deficit to topple Minnesota and win a regional for the first time outside the state in school history. That win set the stage for one of the biggest volleyball events in history, as the Huskers played for a chance at a national title in front of sold-out crowds of 17,000-plus at the Qwest Center in Omaha.
Semifinals
Nebraska used a career night from Tracy Stalls to advance to the finals with a 3-1 victory over fourth-ranked UCLA. Stalls totaled a career-high 17 kills on .577 hitting, out-shining UCLA All-American Nana Meriwether, who was held to 12 kills and a season-low .190 hitting. The Huskers dropped the opener and trailed 28-26 before a Pavan kill pulled NU within a point. Stalls then closed out the game with three straight points from the service line, tying the match at one. Nebraska took control of the third game behind the strong serving of Pavan, who ran off nine straight points at the service line including three aces that turned a 13-all game into a 23-13 cushion. Stalls had seven kills in each of the final two games. While Pavan finished with a match-high 22 kills, the Husker defense held UCLA in check behind 29 digs from Dani Busboom and 25 from Jordan Larson, as both enjoyed career bests in digs against the Bruins.
Larson’s 19th kill of the night closed out the match after the Cardinal pulled within 29-27. NU had four players total at least 10 kills, as Mancuso finished a dream season with 12 kills in her hometown.
Highlighting the 2006 Season
• The Huskers led the country in both kills (17.40) and assists (16.20) per game, the first time Nebraska had led the country in either category. • Nebraska set school records for kills per game, assists per game and block assists (823). • Nebraska became the third team in NCAA history to lead the AVCA poll the entire season, joining UCLA (1992) and USC (2003), and the first team to win a national title while hosting since UCLA in 1991. • Sarah Pavan became the first Husker athlete to win the Honda-Broderick Cup - symbolic of the top female athlete in college athletics. Pavan also became the first Big 12 studentathlete to win the award since the league’s inception in 1996.
Quoting Coach John Cook
“This team maxed out to their abilities. They really never wavered the entire year, and they embraced it if they did. To win this here in Nebraska, with this group of people and overcoming the obstacles to get here and dealing with this pressure, it has to be No. 1. ” – Cook following the national title match
Final
The Huskers followed a similar script as the semifinals, dropping the opening game before regrouping. Trailing 24-23 in game two, the Huskers seized the momentum with three straight points, highlighted by a Dani Mancuso kill that gave NU a 25-24 lead. In game three, another unlikely hero emerged to spark a Husker comeback. Trailing 23-19, Amanda Gates came off the bench and sparked NU with two big blocks, the second of which put the Huskers up 29-28. In the finale, the Huskers rode the arm of Sarah Pavan, who had six of her match-high 22 kills, before Jordan
Middle blocker Tracy Stalls had a career-high 17 kills on .577 hitting and four blocks in NU’s NCAA semifinal win over UCLA.

Mission Accomplished
Nebraska entered the 2000 season with a No. 11 preseason ranking and an eagerness to prove the pollsters wrong. Competing with a new coach, a new setter and without two-time All-American Nancy Metcalf (Meendering) didn’t scare the Huskers. A trio of sophomore All-Americans, including AVCA Player-of-the-Year Greichaly Cepero, emerged to lead NU to a 34-0 record and the program’s second national title. With a 3-2 win over Wisconsin Dec. 15 in the championship final, the Huskers became just the second team in NCAA history to finish a season undefeated. First-year Head Coach John Cook earned AVCA Coach-of-the-Year honors.
Semifinals
In the first match, Nebraska relied on its greatest strength - its block - to stifle Hawaii at the net in a 3-1 victory. The Huskers outblocked the Rainbow Wahine 23-7.5, as Jenny Kropp and Amber Holmquist each tallied 10 block assists. With the win, the Huskers broke the school record for consecutive victories in the modern era of five-game matches. NU produced 36 victories in 1976 when all matches were played as two-out-of-three contests.

Despite the loss of three standout seniors who guided Nebraska to its first national title in 1995, and injuries to three key players, the Huskers nearly became the first team to repeat as NCAA champions since UCLA turned the trick in 1990 and 1991. NU fell only two matches shy of back-to-back national championships, dropping a hard-fought decision to eventual champion Stanford in the national semifinals.
NCAA Semifinals

Back-to-Back
For the second consecutive year, Nebraska returned to the NCAA Championships, only to be ousted one match short of the finals. Once again, as it did in 1986, Pacific sent the Huskers home with a 3-1 loss. It was the Tigers’ second victory of the season against Nebraska, as the Tigers defeated the Huskers 3-1 in an early season tournament.
NCAA Semifinals
A close match throughout, Nebraska and Pacific’s intense game one set the tone. Nebraska led 13-11, but saw the

Tigers score four unanswered points and claim the crucial first game. The Huskers rebounded for a 15-11 win in game two, scoring the game’s final three points.

A Second Time
After a two-year hiatus, Nebraska seniors Virginia Stahr and Carla Baker led NU to its second appearance at the NCAA Championships. In 1986, the Huskers had advanced to the championship match before losing to Pacific. In 1989, NU was hoping for better luck in Honolulu, Hawaii. But fate was not on Nebraska’s side. The Husker hitters made quick work of UCLA, before losing, 3-0, to Long Beach State.
NCAA Championships
A balanced Husker attack and solid
defensive play propelled Nebraska past a UCLA team that had lost just two matches all season. Cris Hall led NU with 19 kills, while Janet Kruse had 12, Eileen Shannon had 11 and Virginia Stahr added 10. NU out-hit UCLA .265 to .160. Unfortunately, Nebraska’s second championship match was much like its first in 1986. Nebraska battled hard in the first game, only to lose 15-12. From that point on, the Huskers could not regain their winning ways, as Long Beach State cruised, 15-0, 15-6 to win the match. Shannon led Nebraska with 11 kills, and Hall added 10.
1989 Season Highlights
• Virginia Stahr captured several awards in 1989 including Delta Scholar Athlete of the Year, Woody Hayes Female Athlete of the Year, Big Eight Female Athlete of the Year and the NCAA Today’s Top Six Award. • Nebraska set team records in 1989 with 2,031 kills, 1,803 assists and a 17.07 kills per game average. • Nebraska won its 14th consecutive Big Eight title with a perfect 12-0 record. • The Huskers started the year with a season-high 14-match winning streak.

Breakthrough Season
After losing in the Mideast Regional final the previous two seasons, Nebraska broke through the field in 1986 and made its first-ever trip to the NCAA championship. Led by senior All-Americans Karen Dahlgren, Tisha Delaney and Enid Schonewise, the Big Eight champion Huskers traveled to Stockton, Calif., with an impressive 28-5 record.

NCAA Championships
In the semifinals, Schonewise led the
Husker attack with 15 kills, while Angie Millikin had 11 kills and a match-high 18 digs. Nebraska hit .258 for the match and held the Cardinal to just .089 hitting. In the championship match, Nebraska met a Pacific team that had lost just one game during the entire NCAA Tournament. The Huskers hung tough in game one, coming back from a 14-9 deficit to cut the margin to two at 14-12. But the Tigers were too much, as they converted their third game point for the 15-12 win. The first game took too much out of the Huskers, as they fell in games two and three by scores of 15-4, 15-4.
1986 Season Highlights
• Nebraska set four single-season team records, including most kills, attacks, hitting percentage and digs. Schonewise set individual season records for kills, kills per game and attacks. • The Huskers set an NCAA record with a .331 hitting percentage, a mark that still ranks in the top 15 all time. • Nebraska won its 11th straight Big Eight championship in 1986 with a 10-0 record and defeated Oklahoma, 3-0, for the tournament trophy in Salina, Kan.

THIS IS NEBRASKA At Nebraska, volleyball is not just a game, it’s an event. Some of the things you’ll experience at an NU volleyball match include: Fans chanting “Husker Power” at deafening levels, Lil’ Red entertaining children, the Tunnel Walk whipping the crowd into a frenzy as the Huskers take the court, and autograph seekers swarming players after each match. In 2013, the Huskers moved into the beautifully renovated Bob Devaney Sports Center. The renovated building included five suites, new ceiling trusses that mimic the Coliseum and a great wall to replicate the Coliseum entry. The project also included 10MM video boards. Fan amenities include increased and renovated restrooms and updated concession stands. The volleyball program also benefitted from a new locker room, ready room and administrative offices. The Nebraska Coliseum was the home of Husker volleyball since the program began in 1975 and the Huskers carry a streak of 181 straight home sellouts into the 2013 season. Nebraska annually ranks among the national leaders in attendance. In 2012, the Huskers finished second in the nation in attendance, drawing 77,164 fans in 18 matches for an average of 4,287 per contest. The Huskers have ranked in the top three nationally in attendance every year in the last two decades.

Building the All-Around Volleyball PLayer
The University of Nebraska volleyball strength and conditioning coach is dedicated to making each student-athlete the best all-around volleyball player they can become. The goal of the strength coach is to help the volleyball player reach her full potential on the court. With the year-round lifting and conditioning program, we strive to reduce injuries and at the same time increase performance.
Strength Staff
Brian Kmitta is in his first year as head strength coach for the volleyball program. The strength and conditioning program’s goal is to produce strength, speed, power and discipline. Making sure the student-athletes are strong, healthy, and competitive is the number one priority. Another goal is to build team dynamics, leadership and mental toughness through different conditioning drills.
Training for Volleyball Weight Training
The weight lifting program consists of both strength and explosive exercises that focus on ground-based and multi-joint movements. Off-season lifting consists of four days a week of lifting with two days of explosive training and two days of strength training. In-season lifting is two days a week focusing on total body movements.
Plyometric and Agility Training
It is important to condition like a volleyball player. Volleyball is a game that requires agility and explosiveness on a consistent basis. It is important to follow this pattern when performing conditioning drills, as plyometric exercises are specialized, high-intensity training techniques used to develop athletic power.
Conditioning
Volleyball is a fast-paced game of short bursts requiring change of directions both laterally and vertically. Developing volleyball endurance is also crucial to prepare for five sets. The conditioning consists of plyometric, agility, speed and endurance training. Plyometric training is used to increase verticals and to work on landings to reduce injuries. Volleyball players need to be able to change direction quickly and get to top speed as fast as possible.
Flexibility
Flexibility is another important component to the overall volleyball program. It is worked on throughout the year during conditioning sessions and practice. Yoga is also used during the season to increase performance and reduce injury.
The Injured Athlete
We have constant communication with the Athletic Medicine Staff in order to plan a successful training program to get the athlete promptly and safely back to competition.

Academic Success
ACADEMIC ALL-AMERICANS
The success of Nebraska student-athletes reaches far beyond athletic competition. More Husker student-athletes have been selected to CoSIDA Academic All-America teams (307) than any other school in the nation, and Nebraska has produced more NCAA Top Ten Award winners (16) than any other school. As it enters its third season of Big Ten Conference competition in 2013-14, Nebraska continues to set the standard for the approximately 1,400 NCAA member institutions. The Husker football team leads all individual sport programs in the nation with 104 all-time CoSIDA Academic All-America awards. The Notre Dame football program ranks second among all sports nationally with 58 all-time academic All-Americans. In fact, Nebraska’s 104 football academic AllAmericans would rank among the top 25 schools (all sports, all divisions) in the nation in the number of total CoSIDA Academic All-Americans. The NU volleyball program has captured more academic All-America awards (37) than any other women’s team in the nation, while the Husker softball program ranks second on that list with 29 selections. Nebraska also ranks among the top 10 schools in the nation in CoSIDA Academic AllAmericans in baseball, women’s basketball and men’s and women’s track and field/cross country. Over the past two years, the men’s and women’s track and field programs have produced 10 CoSIDA Academic All-Americans - the most in the nation during that span.

Huskers Build on Academic Tradition in 2012-13
Husker student-athletes produced another outstanding year in 2012-13, continuing NU’s tradition of academic success. The Huskers added eight CoSIDA Academic AllAmericans to their nation-leading total (307) to become the first school in history to reach 300 academic All-Americans. Nebraska’s eight academic All-Americans led the Big Ten Conference and ranked among the highest totals in the nation across all divisions. NU maintained its lead of 76 all-time CoSIDA Academic All-Americans over No. 2 Notre Dame. Since 2000, Nebraska has amassed a nation-leading 117 CoSIDA Academic All-Americans, which would rank in a tie for 13th over the more than 60 years of the academic AllAmerica program. Nebraska has produced at least one academic All-American in 42 consecutive seasons. Senior I-back Rex Burkhead captured first-team academic All-America honors for the second straight season, while senior linebacker Sean Fisher earned second-team honors for the second straight year. Fisher added a prestigious NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship. While Burkhead and Fisher became the 25th and 26th two-time academic All-Americans in the history of the Husker football program, senior track and field student-athlete Bjorn Barrefors became the first four-time CoSIDA Academic All-American in school history. A six-time All-American as a multi-eventer, Barrefors was Nebraska’s Male Student-Athlete of the Year and claimed an NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship. He was joined by 10-time All-American Mara Griva and Morgan Wilken in giving the track team a trio of academic All-Americans. All-America wrestler Josh Ihnen added his second straight academic AllAmerica award, while eight-time gymnastics All-American Emily Wong captured the first academic All-America award of her career. Gina Mancuso added a first-team CoSIDA Academic All-America award to the Husker volleyball team’s nation-leading total of 37, while helping the Huskers to an NCAA Elite Eight appearance on the court. Senior Mary Weatherholt also capped the most brilliant career on and off the court in Nebraska women’s tennis history. NU’s Female Student-Athlete of the Year earned AllAmerica honors in both singles and doubles, while finishing as the runner-up at the NCAA Singles Championship. She added an Elite Eight finish with teammate Patricia Veresova at the NCAA Doubles Championship, after leading the Huskers to their first-ever NCAA Sweet 16 as a team. For her performances on the court, in the classroom and in the community, Weatherholt claimed the ITA/Cissie Leary National Award for Sportsmanship, one of the top honors in collegiate tennis. In addition to Nebraska’s continued success in creating CoSIDA Academic All-Americans, the Huskers produced a record 705 Nebraska Scholar-Athlete Honor Roll selections during the fall and spring semesters of 2012-13. A total of 188 Huskers were honored as academic All-Big Ten recipients, while 105 NU student-athletes earned degrees in 201213.

The Nebraska Academic Experience
164 | 2013 NEBRASKA NEBRASKAVOLLEYBALL VOLLEYBALL 164│2010
THIS IS NEBRASKA From the day student-athletes decide the University of Nebraska is the right place to be, the athletic academic counseling unit provides personal and academic support to ensure that student-athletes will get the most out of their years as Huskers. Featuring one of the most innovative and comprehensive academic support systems in the country, Nebraska is dedicated to helping its student-athletes become outstanding leaders in their chosen fields. The academic support team is comprised of 13 full-time staff members and a tutorial staff of approximately 75 tutors addressing all subject areas.
Academic Counseling
Eight academic counselors and three assistant academic counselors are in place to monitor daily academic progress, receive consistent course feedback, assist with the advising/registration process and monitor continuing eligibility and progress toward graduation. Essentially, academic counselors assist student-athletes in navigating the University of Nebraska system.
Tutorial Support
A tremendous resource for all academic abilities, unlimited tutorial support is available from day one up to college graduation. Subject and mentor tutors help provide academic support and study strategies to be successful. Supplemental Instruction, a sub-component of the tutorial program, provides targeted group review sessions to help ease the transition to college academics while improving study strategies and building academic self-esteem.
Study Hall
Nebraska’s study hall program is housed in the D.J. Sokol Enrichment Center within the Dick and Peg Herman Student Life Complex. Student-athletes attend a supervised, flex-time study hall that features day, evening and weekend hours. Each student-athlete is required to complete a specific number of study hours each week as determined by their academic counselor and/or coach. In addition, weekly study hall reports are provided to the coaching staff. Additional performance-based or tutor-based study hall may also be determined by the academic counselor.
Mentoring
Many student-athletes meet with a mentor on a weekly basis to assist in making a smooth transition from high school to college. Mentors collect syllabi, gather and report academic progress information and teach academic success strategies.
Educational Assessments
Assessments are administered upon the request of the student-athlete, academic counselor, or coach to determine student strengths and areas for improvement. Results allow academic counselors to develop a personalized academic support program and to determine if more in-depth testing is warranted. When additional assessments are necessary, referrals are made to a consulting psychologist who conducts the assessments. If it is determined that a student-athlete has a learning disability, appropriate accommodations are made through the Office of Services for Students with Disabilities.
Student-Athlete Orientation
The academic staff coordinates New Student-Athlete Orientation to help newcomers adjust to the multiple demands of being a college student-athlete. Presentations are made by academic counselors, compliance officials, NU faculty and administrators, business/ community professionals and student-athletes.
Personal Counseling
Student-athletes will find a supportive and caring environment at Nebraska. Transitional issues, stress management, time management, academic focus and problem resolution are all addressed in a proactive manner throughout the year. If necessary, counseling referrals are also made to designated practitioners.
Computer Resources
Student-athletes enjoy a new state-of-the art computer lab and technology center with 58 computers and professional supervision. Laptops are also available during team travel. Studentathletes have the benefit of ongoing education and assistance from a full-time computer technician.

After taking its program to new heights in 2012, the NU women’s tennis team was even better in 2013. The Huskers won their first Big Ten title, and not only qualified for their NCAA Championships for the fourth-straight year. The Huskers were selected as a women’s tennis regional site for the first time in school history. Along with a trip to the Women’s College World Series and a 45-win season, the fifth-most in school history, the softball team hosted a regional at Bowlin Stadium for the fifth time since the park opened in 2002. The Husker women’s basketball team ran to the secondhighest win total in school history with 25 victories, while also finishing second in the Big Ten with a 12-4 conference mark. Individual success also highlighted a stellar 2012-13 for Nebraska Athletics. On the gridiron, Spencer Long was named a second-team All-American, marking the fourthstraight year that Nebraska has had either a first or second-team All-America selection. Mary Weatherholt rewrote Nebraska women’s tennis history, as the fifth-year senior finished runner-up to defending champion NCAA champion Nicole Gibbs. After clinching Nebraska’s bowling team national title, Kristina Mickelson won the X-Bowling Intercollegiate Singles title. Chad Wright nearly claimed a second straight national championship in the men’s discus, with his personal-best throw of 209-1 resulting in a runner-up finish. Overall in 2012-13, 37 Husker student-athletes combined to capture 53 All-America awards across all sports. As a testament to Nebraska’s national recruiting prowess, the All-Americans came to NU from 16 states and four foreign countries. The Cornhusker state showed its success in keeping the best and brightest of its future leaders at home, as nine All-Americans came from the state of Nebraska.
All-American Mary Weatherholt had a historic run in the NCAA Singles Championship to cap her final year as a Husker. She stormed her way into the championship match with five straight wins before falling to two-time champion Nicole Gibbs of Stanford.

Following their collegiate experiences, many former Huskers have the opportunity to play either professionally or with their respective national teams. Last season, nine former Huskers were playing professionally overseas with teams in Germany, Finland, Puerto Rico, Russia, Azerbaijan, South Korea and Turkey. The Huskers are also well represented on the U.S. National Team, as Metcalf, Larson and Kayla Banwarth are currently on the U.S. National Team roster. Larson and Metcalf were joined by Nebraska Head Coach John Cook in July at the 2011 Women’s Pan American Cup in Juarez, Mexico, where Cook served as the team manager. A total of 12 current or former Huskers have been members of the U.S. National Team, while four former Huskers (Larson, Metcalf, Allison Weston and Lori Endicott) have represented the United States in the Olympic Games.

HUSKERS.COM THE BOB DEVANEY SPORTS CENTER The Nebraska volleyball program opened a new era in its storied tradition by moving into a new permanent home court for the first time in almost 40 years. When Nebraska played its preseason Red-White Match on Saturday, Aug. 24, 2013, the Bob Devaney Sports Center became the official home of Husker volleyball. The Devaney Center, which received $20 million in renovations designed to create the nation’s premier home court advantage for volleyball, will allow nearly 4,000 more Nebraska fans per game to watch the Huskers. Nebraska volleyball, which carried the longest home sellout streak in the history of any NCAA women’s sport with 181 consecutive sellouts (2001-12) at the historic NU Coliseum, has guaranteed another season of sellouts in its first year at the Devaney Center.
