Kansas City volleyball media guide Season Preview

After seeing eight players play their final match as a Kangaroo in 2011, UMKC heads into the 2012 season facing a transition year under second-year head coach, Christi Posey. In 2012, Posey will feature a roster that is led by five upperclassmen, including four seniors, but also includes eight newcomers, including seven freshman. Though, talented, Posey knows the freshman will face an adjustment period in their first collegiate season, but will look to the upperclassmen to guide the young ‘Roos. “Our upperclassmen demonstrated terrific leadership throughout the summer and preseason – it’s a tribute to them that our team chemistry is so solid this early,” Posey said. “It certainly helped that all of our newcomers attended classes in July in addition to working out and playing together. Our goals are to get better each week and put ourselves in a position to play in the Post Season”

SETTERS At the setter position, the Kangaroos will be led by senior Ella Meier, while freshman Nicole Wemhoff will see her fair share of time on the court for the ‘Roos. In 2011, Meier started all 29 matches for the squad, while leading the Kangaroos with 816 assists and closing out the season with a triple-double against North Dakota State. Currently the Lancaster, Pa., native is fifth all-time in UMKC history with 1,459 assists. Wemhoff, meanwhile, joins the ‘Roos from right down the street at St. Teresa’s Academy. As a Star, the Kansas City, Mo., native led her squad to a 29-7 record overall and an appearance in the quarterfinals of the Missouri 4A State Championship as a senior, while being named First Team Missouri 4A All-State, as well as all-District, after recording 747 assists in 2011.

“Both Ella and Nicole bring great qualities to their team, although they have different

strengths,” Posey said. “Both setters will be relied upon to bring their best effort every night as each of them will impact our success, quite possibly the most of any other position.”.

DEFENSIVE SPECIALISTS In the back row, UMKC will rely on a pair of freshman to keep the ball off the floor in Taryn Miller and Lindsay Zych. In 2011, Miller led Blue Springs to the semifinals of the Class 4A District 14 Tournament where they fell to eventual state runner-up Lee’s Summit West, while amassing 394 digs and 55 aces, leading to a spot on the Missouri 4A All-State and All-District First Teams. Zych follows in her aunt Carrie’s footsteps as a Kangaroo volleyball player after helping Bishop Miege to the Kansas 5A State Championship and Eastern Kansas League titles in each of her four seasons and being named Second Team All-EKL as a senior. “Taryn has outstanding instincts and reads hitters very well and Lindsay is fearless and is always in the right place defensively,” Posey said. “They both are extremely skilled ball handlers and are great communicators.”

MIDDLE HITTERS In the middle, the Kangaroos will feature a three-headed monster headlined by senior Brittany Fossier and featuring first-years ‘Roos Skyler Muff and Emma Hagedorn. Fossier, in her fifth season in the Blue & Gold, returned last season after missing the season with a knee injury in 2010. In 2011, the Plano, Texas, native finished second in The Summit League at 1.04 blocks per set and now sits seventh in UMKC with 226 career block assists. Muff joins the squad out of Pittsburgh, Kan., where she led the PHS to two-

straight Southeast Kansas League titles, while being named First Team all-SEK, all-County and Team MVP as both a junior and a senior. Hagedorn, meanwhile, helped Park Hill South to a 31-4 record overall and a Missouri Class 4A, District 15 Title in 2011 and was named First Team All-Region, AllDistrict and All-Conference and Second Team All-State. “Brittany, our senior middle, has provided our freshmen middles, Emma and Skyler, information, guidance and support all through preseason,” said Posey. “They each have unique talents that we’ll need to compete at a high level. What’s exciting is that I believe we can interchange each of them depending on the opponent’s strengths.”

OUTSIDE HITTERS On the outside, the Kangaroos feature their deepest position with four players capable of making an impact. Senior Emily Lucas tops the quartet after starting all 28 matches in which she appeared in 2011 and notching 249 kills. Twice the Sublette, Kan., native recorded a career-high 16 kills, while being named to the Black Knights Invitational All-Tournament Team. Jarema returns for her third season in the Blue & Gold, seeing actions in all 29 matches in 2011. During the season, the Highland, Utah, native registered 134 kills, leading the team four times and tallying a career-high 15 against Montana State. Sophomore Morgan Voorhes enters her first full season at UMKC after spending 2011 at Pittsburgh State. As a Gorilla, the Overland Park, Kan., native led the team with 346 kill, while adding 318 digs. Freshman Jessica Hendin, meanwhile, joins UMKC out of Blue Valley West where she led the Jaguars to a fifth place finish in the 2011 Kansas 6A State Championship,

Kansas City volleyball media guide Season Preview while being named to the 2011 Kansas 6A All-State Tournament Team, to the MOKAN All-Star Team, to the KVA All-State team and First team All-Eastern Kansas League as a senior after posting 328 kills, 44 aces, 49 blocks and 190 digs. “This is the position where we enjoy the most depth,” Posey said. “Emily, our senior leads that group with the most experience. Chloe was a game changer last season and we’ll rely on her providing that and more this season. Newcomers, Morgan and Jess will add their own flair to that group contributing strength, athleticism and shot making ability.”

RIGHTSIDES On the opposite side, senior Brittney Robers returns to the position after splitting the setting duties in 2011, while freshman Sydney Crimmins joins the volleyball program after spending a year with the basketball team. In 2011, Robers appeared in 19 matches, finishing second on the team with 265 assists, including leading the team six times. 12 times, the Allen, Texas, native finished with 10 or more assists and six times finished with 20 or more. Crimmins, meanwhile, was a four-year letterwinner in volleyball at Clay Center Community, earning First Team All-State honors twice, Honorable Mention AllState honors once, First Team All-NCKL honors all fours years and Kansas Volleyball Association all-Academic Team honors four times, while playing in the Kansas Volleyball All-Star Game and the North Central Kansas All-Star Game. “We scored often in this position last season and that shouldn’t change with a new lineup,” Posey said. “Brittney, has great physicality at the net and Sydney continues to use her natural athletic ability in all areas of the game.”

CATALINA SUAREZ -- NO. 8, NUMBER RETIRED OCT. 31, 1996 UMKC produced one of the greatest collegiate volleyball players of all time when Catalina Suarez donned a Kangaroos’ uniform from 1988—89. And on Oct. 31, 1996, UMKC retired the No. 8 in her honor. She joins former basketball player Ronnie Schmitz as the only two UMKC student-athletes to have their uniform number retired. Suarez transferred to UMKC following the 1986 season after a twoyear stint with the University of Kansas. After sitting out the 1987 season, she finished her career at UMKC from 1988—89. In 1989, she was named first-team all-Mideast and was an honorable mention all-American. She received UMKC’s David B. Milner Award in both 1988-89 and 1989-90, which is presented to the department’s most

inspirational athlete. She was also a member of the Colombian national team for four years and served as the captain for three years. The decision to retire Suarez’ number was made by the UMKC Special Recognition Committee, which was composed of selected members of the Intercollegiate Athletics Committee. In 2008, Suarez was selected to the inaugural UMKC Athletics Hall of Fame, where she was officially inducted on Dec. 5. Suarez still ranks at or near the top of several Division I national record charts.

The Evolution of the Kangaroo

hen choosing a mascot, the discussion usually starts with three main categories - predatory animals, historical or regional figures, or humans that represent power and strength - and ends with a collection of the usual suspects. Thanks to Walt Disney, The Kansas City Star and the Kansas City Zoo, Kansas City has a very unique mascot, but how exactly does the Kangaroo fit? As it turns out, quite well. In 1936, the issue of a mascot was first brought up by the editors of The University the campus newspaper for Kansas City University. Although there were no organized intercollegiate athletics teams at the time, the newspaper staff felt that KCU’s debate team - and more importantly the school itself - deserved a unique identity. During that same year, the Kansas City Zoo purchased a pair of baby Kangaroos, and The Kansas City Star lit the fire with an article titled “Kangaroo May Go To KCU ... Student Editors Believe University Should Have A Symbol.” Others on campus were not as enthusiastic. The editors of The Crataegus - the University’s yearbook - thought that a Kangaroo was not an appropriate symbol for KCU. A proposed feature page in the 1936-37 yearbook for the Kangaroo emblem was deleted, sparking a tremendous amount of debate. As the debate wore on, interest from the campus community began to wane. It looked as if KCU would not adopt a mascot after all. But in 1937, two events would combine to indelibly link the Kangaroo with the University and give the mascot a name.

The first incarnation of Kasey Kangaroo was inked by Marceline, Mo., native Walt Disney, and featured the KCU mascot alongside a somewhat more famous rodent.

During the student government elections in the spring semester, the CO-OP Party adopted the Kangaroo as its official mascot, naming him Kasey. With a landslide victory in April behind the slogan “Kasey fits KC”, the first part of the foundation was laid. During the same month the first issue of KCU’s humor magazine - The Kangaroo - was published, with a kangaroo gracing the cover. Six months later, a kangaroo made another appearance on the cover of The Kangaroo, and although it wasn’t a solo appearance, it put a quick end to the debate over whether a kangaroo was an appropriate mascot for KCU. Missouri native and famed cartoonist Walt Disney provided the artwork for the cover illustration, which featured Mickey Mouse shaking hands with Kasey Kangaroo. In a matter of a few years, The Kangaroo thrived while The Crataegus floundered, with the latter eventually folding. The Kangaroo became the University’s yearbook and the Kangaroo became the official mascot of Kansas City University. Kasey has undergone several changes over the years, with the most recent metamorphosis led by Kansas City Director of Athletics Tim Hall. With the help of local advertising agency Bernstein-Rein, Kansas City developed a set of new athletics marks in the spring of 2008. After a community vote, the new Kangaroo logo was unveiled in May. With its aggressive snarl, the new Kangaroo capitalizes on Kansas City’s mission to be an outstanding urban university while keeping mindful of the traditions established in 1937.

Director of Athletics Tim Hall

TIM HALL

Director of Athletics

Tim Hall was named the Kansas City Director of Athletics on Feb. 14, 2007. In this role, he serves as a member of the Chancellor’s executive cabinet, and is responsible for leading the strategic direction in growing the university’s intercollegiate athletics program. Since Hall accepted the post in 2007, Kansas City has seen competitive improvement every year. Kansas City has won Summit League Championships in men’s soccer, men’s golf, men’s tennis and softball. This academic year, all four of those Kansas City sports were named favorites to win the Summit League, with three others picked in the top three. The women’s basketball team posted its first 20-win season since 1991-92 and its second ever trip to the Summit League Tournament Championship game. In the fall, the women’s soccer team advanced to the conference tournament for the first time in school history, while setting a school record for wins. Women’s tennis also set a record for wins following last year’s season, and advanced to its first ever Summit League Tournament Final appearance. Kansas City’s athletics department staffing has grown during Hall’s tenure as part of an effort to catch up to other Summit League schools. Those additions have made Kansas City more competitive in recruiting student-athletes, while providing fundraising support for many facility improvements and agreements in each sport. The successes were reinforced by the NCAA in 2009, as Kansas City Athletics received full NCAA certification without condition. The certification showed that the University is operating its athletics program in substantial conformity with operating principles adopted by the NCAA Division I membership and is valid for the next 10 years. Hall led the ‘Roos to their most successful year since 2000 in 2008-09 and the ‘Roos continued excelling in 2009-10. Kansas City claimed a pair of Summit League titles in men’s soccer and men’s tennis, while also earning the runnerup nod in both men’s and women’s golf, which led to a record 2009 finish in the annual Learfield Sports Directors’ Cup. During the 2010 campaign, the men’s tennis team won The Summit League regular season title and the men’s golf program was the league runner-up. This helped the men’s teams finish fourth in the Dr. William Steinbrecher Men’s All Sports Award standings, the best showing since 2001-02. Overall, the ‘Roos moved up to sixth place in the Commissioner’s Cup standings, which was the highest finish since 2006-07. In the classroom, the department posted a grade point average of better than 3.20 this past year. It had a 3.10 cumulative grade point in the spring 2010 semester and eight programs finished with at least a 3.0 GPA. Additionally, Kansas City finished with a 958.7 APR average and the volleyball team received the NCAA public recognition award. Internally, Hall has been hard at work to align the department with peer institutions and the NCAA. He restructured the rules compliance office to be more in line with NCAA rules and the Student-Athlete Support Services Office to better assist and prepare Kangaroo studentathletes. He also continues to work with new Kansas City Chancellor Leo Morton to craft the athletics’ strategic plan in concert with the University’s new strategic goals. From a fund raising standpoint, Kangaroo Athletics have never been better. In 2008, Kansas City received a $5 million pledge from the Stanley H. Durwood Foundation, the largest gift in Athletics’ and the fourth-largest gift in University history. The resulting Stanley H. Durwood Soccer Stadium and Recreational Field opened in August 2009 and is among the premier soccer facilities in the Midwest region. Additional facility improvements have included revamped locker rooms and lounges for men’s and women’s basketball and volleyball and the retro-fitting of Old Swinney Gymnasium, which provides the basketball and volleyball programs with a first-class practice facility. The project was funded through $500,000 of private support. Hall also was instrumental in the renovation of the Swinney Recreation Center with the installation of new seatback bleachers and new scoreboards, which enhances the venue for the men’s and women’s basketball and volleyball programs. The renovation allows the men’s basketball squad to move its games back on campus full-time for the 2010-11 season. Hall is also in the midst of a partnership with the Kansas City Parks Department to build a sports complex that will house both indoor and outdoor tennis courts, a 200-meter indoor track and a softball field. On an annual basis, the Kangaroo Athletics Scholarship Fund, which was rebranded prior to the 2007-08 school year, has posted three straight years of 50 percent growth, while donor participation is up over 200 percent. He also increased the department’s total sponsorships and gift-in-kind assistance to over $1.5 million and cash and trade sponsorships have increased 265 percent since 2008. Additionally, Hall has increased Kansas City’s external support by 45 percent over fiscal year 2009 from $1.6 to $2.4 million. Hall also has also reconnected with over 200 former ‘Roos with the former student-athlete association. In the community, Hall has been active in an effort to get more community leaders involved in the Athletics Department. Hall restructured the Athletics Foundation Board in 2009 by adding representatives from a number of Kansas City-based businesses such as Cerner, Kansas City Southern Railways, Lathrop Gage LLC, and Mark One Electric. New partnerships have come quickly to Kangaroo Athletics, including television (Niles Media Group) and radio (810 WHB) agreements that ensure a continued presence within the Kansas City region. Renowned local advertising firm Bernstein-Rein produced a redesigned athletics logo and graphics set, while additional contractual agreements have also been signed with adidas, Truman Medical Centers, Pepsi, T-Mobile and JumpTV to better serve the department’s student-athletes. Hall continues to bring leadership to Kansas City and The Summit League. In addition to his role on the Chancellor’s Executive Cabinet, Hall serves on The Summit League Joint Council leadership committee and sits on the league’s men’s basketball scheduling committee and the men’s and women’s soccer coaches committees. Additionally, Hall is also in the second of a three-year term on the NACDA Division 1-AAA Executive Committee and serves on the NCAA volleyball rules committee. Hall came to Kansas City after serving as the Associate Athletics Director for Development at Kent State University in Kent, Ohio, from 2003-07. While at KSU, he was a member of the athletics senior administrative staff, working in all phases of departmental management including game and personnel contracts, scheduling, budget, policy and strategic planning. In this role, Hall created and implemented a comprehensive restructuring of the athletic advancement unit, resulting in the creation of the Office of Athletic Advancement. He increased fundraising by more than 33 percent, helped secure the largest gift to date in the history of KSU athletics, a $1.53 million gift for the baseball stadium renovation, and raised more than $16.1 million. Prior to moving back to Ohio, Hall worked at Eastern Kentucky University from 2000-03. Hall began work as the collegiate Director for Development in 2000 before being promoted to the Director of Major Gifts and Special Projects in 2001. In this capacity, he raised over $4.6 million for the university, including $1.3 million for athletics. Hall also served as the Assistant Director of Development at Saint Xavier University in Chicago from September 1999 through October 2000. At Saint Xavier, Hall managed fundraising efforts for a $13 million Athletic and Convention Center. He also managed the President’s Club, and developed and implemented the Cougar Club, an athletics affinity group. Before moving to Chicago, Hall worked at Youngstown State University as an Assistant Director of Athletic Development from 1997-99. In this role, he helped the university complete its successful $26 million capital campaign. Hall also began his collegiate career at YSU, serving in the school’s athletic marketing and promotions office. Hall earned his bachelor’s degree in sports administration from the University of Toledo in 1994. He then received his master’s degree in sports administration from Kent State University in 1998. Hall and his wife, Beth, have four children, Aidan, Aislin, Donovan and Landon, and they reside in Kansas City, Mo.

City through the offsetting of expenses such as scholarships, travel, recruiting, and equipment. As costs continue to rise, support for our student-athletes through the KASF becomes more crucial as we continue to build an elite Summit League athletics department. For the 2012-13 academic year, student-athlete scholarship expenses are expected to include: • Tuition (out-of-state): $17,692 • Room and Board: $10,130 • Tuition (in-state): $6,876 • Books and Fees: $1,612

Cross Country/Track & Field

In addition, over the past year it has become extremely difficult for budgets to keep pace with rising travel and food costs. While athletics must be vigilant in cost containment, we must continue to provide for the best possible student-athlete experience. That is where the KASF donors can play such a tremendous role.

Kansas City

Cowtown Shmowtown

Although Kansas City’s reputation outside the Midwest may be that of an agricultural cowtown, its residents know the truth. UMKC is in the middle of it all, with history, culture and entertainment options on all sides and within just a short walk or drive. Here’s just a few of the options that students at UMKC have at their disposal. The Legends at Village West boasts 1.1 million square feet of retail space and is home to more than 100 shops and restaurants. This northern shopping mecca is also located by the Kansas Speedway and Community America Ballpark. The Kansas Speedway hosts major league racing events like NASCAR’s Nextel and Busch series and Indy Racing League. Community America Ballpark is home to the Kansas City T-Bones and serves as the temporary site for the Kansas City Wizards. The Wizards are currently constructing a new $160 million state-of-the-art stadium at Legends.

Located within a short walk from the Volker Campus, The NelsonAtkins Museum of Art includes works of art from some of the great masters. The lawn of The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art resembles a badminton court with 18-ft.-tall sculptures, titled “Shuttlecocks.”

The Country Club Plaza offers 14 blocks of shopping amid beautiful Spanish architecture, fountains and statues. More than 80 miles of lights outline every building, dome and tower on the Country Club Plaza each holiday season. The Plaza is within a short walking distance from the Volker Campus. Kansas City is known as the City of Fountains with more than 200 fountains on the Plaza and in downtown KC.

Kansas City The $850 million Power & Light District is the largest new development project in the Midwest. Just steps from the Convention Center and a short drive from the Volker Campus, the Power & Light District features eight blocks of dining, nightlife and entertainment venues. Located next to the Power & Light District, the Sprint Center opened in downtown Kansas City in October 2007. The Sprint Center is a state-of-the-art, 18,500-seat arena offering marquee concerts and sporting events. Located in the Sprint Center, the College Basketball Experience celebrates college basketball by placing visitors in electrifying, game-like situations. Home to the National Collegiate Basketball Hall of Fame as well, UMKC had the honor of opening the CBE and held its first practice of the 2007-08 season.

Municipal Auditorium has hosted more NCAA Tournament games and more Final Fours than any other venue in the country. The UMKC men’s and women’s basketball teams will also play a doubleheader at this historical venue during the 2010-11 season.

Arrowhead Stadium, home of the Kansas City Chiefs, seats more than 79,000 on game day. The Kansas City Royals play in Kauffman Stadium, which just wrapped up a $250 million renovation. Kauffman Stadium’s unique features include a 322-foot-wide water spectacular. The water spectacular is the largest privately funded fountain in the world. Both teams play at the Truman Sports Complex.

The Negro Leagues Baseball Museum chronicles the history and heroes of the Negro Leagues from their founding after the Civil War to their demise in the 1960s. The first professional Negro Leagues were founded in Kansas City in 1920, just two blocks from the museum.
