“The majority of our players have great experience now, so we believe that maturity will provide us with a tremendous opportunity to be more consistent at home and on the road,” Posey said. “The coaching staff is eager for our preseason “camp” to challenge our team and prepare us for a memorable season in 2014!”

OUTSIDE HITTERS Offensively, the ‘Roos will be led by a trio of upperclassmen, while a pair of underclassmen will also look to make their mark. Leading the way is redshirt junior and returning Second Team All-WAC member Sydney Crimmins, who led the ‘Roos with 288 kills and a .239 hitting percentage in 2013, while classmate Jessica Hendin was right on her heels for the team lead with 282 kills. Senior Morgan

“Senior Morgan Voorhes and juniors Sydney Crimmins and Jessica Hendin were an important part of our offense scoring over half of our total kills,” Posey said. “Morgan is determined to have a memorable senior campaign. Sydney made Second Team AllWAC and we are expecting her to have a stellar season. Syd and Jess will be relied on heavily as they handled much of the serve receive responsibilities. Sophomore Taylor Buhrow contributed at the net and will be called upon to increase her numbers both offensively and defensively, and we are eager to see what Meagan Kerns, a redshirt freshman, will provide on the outside.”

SETTERS Setting up the Kangaroos hitters are a pair of experienced setters in junior Nicole Wemhoff and sophomore Kaylyn Brandt. In 2013, the duo split the starts, with Wemhoff tallying 527 assists and Brandt notching a team-high 614 helpers

en route to a spot on the WAC’s All-Freshman Team. “Nicole Wemhoff, a two-year starter and junior setter, will anchor the setting responsibilities with her sophomore teammate, Kaylyn Brandt, who was named to the WAC All-Freshman Team last season. With Nicole’s savvy and Kaylyn’s athleticism, we will have a strong pairing, but also need both players to advance their games and be the hardest working players on our team.”

MIDDLE HITTERS Defensively, the ‘Roos group of three in the middle will limit the opponents attack at the net led by record breaker Emma Hagedorn. Last season, the junior set the ‘Roos record for blocks in a game with 14 against Penn, while her 144 total blocks on the season also set a new mark. Joining Hagedorn in the middle are senior Melissa Hartsel (95 blocks, 77 kills) and junior Skyler Muff (73 kills, 44 blocks), while freshman Emma Dyer adds depth to the group. “Our group of middles, with senior Melissa Hartsel and juniors Emma Hagedorn and Skyler Muff, will compete daily while mentoring freshman Emma Dyer,” Posey said.

including nine that started at least 12 matches and the libero, from a team that is coming off back-toback winning seasons for the first time in school history has Missouri-Kansas City Volleyball Head Coach Christi Posey and the rest of the ‘Roos primed for a big year in 2014, her fourth at the helm of the ‘Roos.

Voorhes, meanwhile, added 128 kills to the UMKC attack, while sophomore Taylor Buhrow chipped in 67. Redshirt freshman Meagan Kerns will also vie for court time after sitting out last season with a knee injury.


SEASON PREVIEW

“Each middle brings something different offensively to our team, but what they bring collectively from a defensive mind-set is an all business-like approach to shutting down opponents.”

LIBERO/DEFENSIVE SPECIALISTS In the back row defensively, junior Taryn Miller returns for her third season as the ‘Roos libero after being named Second Team All-WAC in 2013 and climbing to sixth on the career digs list after just two seasons. Also returning for her third season in the Blue & Gold is the squad’s top back row reserve, Lindsay Zych (48 digs), while freshman Adasia Bromberger will look to make her mark as well. “Returning Second Team All-WAC selection, Taryn Miller, leads the charge defensively with 4.88 digs per set and provides solid leadership,” Posey added. “Fellow junior Lindsay Zych, provides stability serve receiving and playing a versatile role defensively. Freshman Adasia Bromberger will add quality depth and challenge for playing time.” With 14 players on the roster, including 11 who have played major roles the past two seasons for UMKC, the ‘Roos are looking

to make some noise as they enter their second year in the WAC. “After we wrapped up our season last fall and throughout our spring season, there was a feeling with our team that we had underachieved in 2013,” Posey concluded. “That has really motivated our team, both individually and collectively, to address our deficiencies, improve our overall play and take a big step forward this season.”

SCHEDULES Head Coach Christi Posey and the UMKC volleyball team have announced their 2014 schedule with a visit to the Swinney Recreation Center by Missouri, a trip to Lawrence, Kan., to take on the Jayhawks and four preseason tournaments highlighting the slate. “We are very excited to play teams from such a variety of conferences this year: the Big 12, the SEC, the MAC, the Horizon, the Missouri Valley, Conference USA, the Summit, the Southland, and the Atlantic Sun,” Posey said. “We are excited to play both Big 12 Runner-up Kansas, coming off a 2013 Sweet 16 appearance, and Missouri, owners of last year’s longest winning streak at 35 consecutive matches, with Mizzou coming into Swinney

HEAD COACH CHRISTI POSEY

Christi Posey enters her fourth season at the helm of the UMKC volleyball program after being named the new head coach of the Kangaroos on Feb. 14, 2011. Last season under the direction of Posey, the ‘Roos finished with just their third winning record in school history and the first time ever finishing with a winning record in back-toback seasons after the squad finished 15-14 overall. On the year, Sydney Crimmins and Taryn Miller each garnered Second Team All-WAC recognition and Kaylyn Brandt was named to the All-Freshman team, while Emma Hagedorn set the school record for blocks in a season and a game. Off the court, Crimmins was selected as the WAC’s representitive to the NCAA’s SAAC, while Crimmins, Miller, Brandt, Skyler Muff, Morgan Voorhes and Nicole Wemhoff all garnered Academic All-WAC honors. In 2013, Posey guided the ‘Roos to a 17-13 record overall, the second most wins in school history, while Emily Lucas was named to the First Team All-Summit League and Hagedorn was named Honorable Mention All-Summit League and to the Summit League All-Freshman Team. Muff, meanwhile, was named to a pair of preseason all-tournament teams, while Lucas and Miller were each named to one. Academically, three Kangaroos were named to the Commissioner’s List of Academic Excellence, while seven were named to The Summit League Fall Academic Honor Roll, including four as Distinguished Scholars. In her first season as the ‘Roos head coach, Posey guided the squad to a 12-17 record overall and a 6-12 mark in Summit League play, including five wins in their final seven matches. During the year, the first year coach saw five seperate players named to all-tournament teams, while leading UMKC to a 3-0 record in the Radford Tournament, its first preseason title since 2002. Under her watch, meanwhile, seniors Christiana McQuin (blocks and block assists) and Nicole Kerkman (digs) each set new school records. Academically, eight ‘Roos were named to The Summit League Fall Academic All-League Team, including three as Distinguished Scholars, while the team claimed its third NCAA Public Recognition Award from the NCAA in the last four years after finishing in the top-10 percent in APR of all NCAA Division I volleyball teams for the 2010-11 season. Prior to joing the UMKC program, Posey has spent eleven seasons as the top assistant and recruiting coordinator at the University of Kansas, where she landed the No. 26 ranked class in the nation according to PrepVolleyball.com in 2010. While at Kansas, Posey worked with the team’s setters and defensive specialist, while also serving as the team’s recruiting coordinator, overseeing the team’s managers, team room and camp administration, and acting as a liaison between the team and its sports psychologist, promotions department and the weight room During her time on the sidelines, Posey oversaw the development of many impressive Jayhawks, including 2010 team members Melissa Manda and Nicole Tate. Under Posey’s guidance, Manda became the all-time digs leader at KU with 1,457 digs in her career, while Tate served as the team’s primary setter the past three season and was named to the 2008 all-Big 12 Freshman squad. From 2002-05, Posey worked with Andi Rozum who became Kansas’ all-time leader in assists, as well as Jennifer Kraft, who was named 2002 Big 12 Defensive Specialist of the Year. Prior to heading to Lawrence, Posey served as the head volleyball coach at Blue Valley Northwest High School in Overland Park, Kan., from 1993 to 2000. During that time, Posey led the Huskies to KSHSAA state tournaments in each of her eight season, winning the state championships in 1996 and 1997, while finishing third three times. At Blue Valley Northwest, Posey also served as head girls’ basketball and assistant softball coach for the Huskies and was named a member of its inaugural Husky Hall of Fame class. While coaching the Huskies, she was named the 1999 Johnson County Volleyball Coach of the Year by the Kansas City Star, the 1997 Coach of the Year by the Kansas Volleyball Association and Kansas Sport Magazine after leading her team to a perfect 44-0 record, including a second-straight KSHSAA state championship and the 1996 Coach of the Year by Kansas Sport Magazine and Sports Connection after guiding her team to a 41-3 record and the state championship. Before taking over the coaching duties at Blue Valley Northwest, Posey served in the same position at Halstead (Kan.) High School from 1983-90 where she was selected to serve as head coach at the 1990 Kansas Volleyball Association’s annual All-Star Game after being named co-Coach of the Year by the KVA. Four times her squad’s qualified for the state tournament, including a third place finish in 1990. In her 18 years as a high school coach, Posey compiled an overall record of 392-171. During her college career, Posey lettered in volleyball and softball at Wichita State as a freshman and sophomore before transferring to Kansas for her final two years of eligibility, where she was a standout first baseman and outfielder for the KU softball team. Posey, a Wichita, Kan., native, received a bachelor’s degree in education from University of Kansas in 1982 where she majored in physical education and minored in health education.

In his three years on the staff, Jones has helped the ‘Roos to a 44-44 overall mark and back-to-back winning seasons for the first time in school history, while three players have been named to all-conference teams and two more to all-freshman teams. “Trent has been instrumental in the success we’ve experienced thus far and there is no question to the positive impact he will have in the future in our program.” Head Coach Christi Posey said, “His loyalty, his work ethic, and his commitment to player improvement make him an outstanding asset to Kansas City Volleyball.” Jones came to UMKC from UMSL, where he led the Tritons to a 64-28 record in his three seasons and the squad’s first trip to the NCAA Division II tournament since 1995 in 2010. In that season, he directed the squad to its first appearance in the AVCA top-25 since 1993, while being named the Great Lakes Valley Coach of the Year in 2008. In his three seasons, Jones produced 12 AllGLVC selections, four All-Region selections and an All-Region Freshman of the Year honoree. Although Jones oversees many aspects of the program, his work with the middle attackers produced an AllLeague performance from freshman, Emma Hagedorn. Jones also coordinates blocking schemes and team defense. “We are thrilled to be able to promote Trent to Associate Head Coach; it gives us the chance to demonstrate our appreciation for his expertise and dedication.” Posey said. Prior to heading the UMSL program, Jones served as First Assistant at Washburn University from 20042008, helping the Lady Blues to a 129-23 record during his time on the bench. In 2007, Washburn made its first ever appearance in the NCAA Division II Final Four after achieving a school-record 35-3 record in 2005. Under his guidance, the Lady Blues placed seven players on the all-American team. From 2002-04, Jones served as a volunteer assistant at the University of Kansas where he helped guide the squad to its best season in school history and first NCAA Tournament appearance in 2003. As a collegiate student-athlete, Jones was a member of the Columbia College men’s team, where he led the Cougars to the 2000 NAIA Men’s Volleyball National Championship. The new UMKC Assistant Coach also spent 1998-1999 and 2000-02 as a member of Graceland University volleyball team where he earned his Bachelor of Arts in History with an emphasis on Civil Rights in 2002.

CATALINA SUAREZ

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 Kan­ ga­ roos’ 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 two-year 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.

Wilson was responsible for the preparation, development and maintenance of the budgets for all 16 sports and nine administrative areas of the department. She also served as the sport administrator for women’s basketball, men’s soccer, and men’s and women’s tennis. Wilson also served as the Assistant Athletics Director for Business Operations for nine years prior to her time as Senior Associate Athletics Director. As Senior Woman Administrator, Wilson is the highest ranking female involved with the management of UMKC’s Intercollegiate Athletics program, and represents UMKC in dealings with the conference office and the NCAA.

The 18-month program was developed with the specific goal of enhancing the employment and leadership opportunities for racial/ ethnic minorities and women at the senior management level of intercollegiate athletics administration. She is also a 2009 NACWAA HERS East graduate. Wilson is also a member of the MOAA Educational and Professional Development Committee and the Program Committee, which is responsible for programming of the MOAA Symposium held at the annual NACDA Convention. Wilson is also a frequent presenter at CABMA Conventions, and serves on the Membership and Program committees for the organization. Wilson has also been active on NCAA committees during her time at UMKC. In 2010, Wilson began a four-year term on the NCAA Division I Women’s Softball Committee, and serves as the chair of the committee for 2013-14. From 2004-07, she also served on the Division I NCAA Men’s and Women’s Tennis Committee. Both committees are responsible for selecting the teams that compete for the opportunity to play for a national championship. Since 1999, Wilson has also served on the NCAA Region V Post Graduate Scholarship Committee. A 25-year career Kangaroo, prior to athletics Wilson served UMKC as a budget specialist in the University’s administrative affairs office for four years, where she was responsible for assisting in the preparation of the University’s $159 million budget. From 1988-93, she also served in the accounting department as a senior accountant. Wilson graduated from UMKC in 1988 with a bachelor’s degree in accounting.

The $500,000 renovation plan calls for new basketball/volleyball court flooring and basketball standards and volleyball nets to be installed in the existing facility. The current skylights in the building will also be altered, which will allow for modified lighting to be put into place. The entire Old Swinney interior will be updated and scoreboards will be installed.

FACTS After completing its 51st year of intercollegiate competition, the Western Athletic Conference continues to evolve and feature some of the nation’s best programs. One thing that remains unchanged is the persistent nature of the schools in the WAC to advance their programs to contend at the top levels of the NCAA. The WAC provides its student-athletes the chance to travel to scenic destinations and gain exposure in some of the nation’s most diverse markets and largest metropolitan cities. In addition, the WAC’s student-athletes work to achieve the highest levels of success with the academic support of their respective institutions. The WAC has experienced tremendous success over the years. In men’s basketball, the WAC has sent at least two teams to the NCAA Tournament in 24 of the past 29 seasons. In baseball, the WAC has boasted two national champions since 2003. In women’s basketball, the conference has had at least two teams qualify for the NCAA Tournament 10 times in 22 seasons, with a record five teams in 1998. The WAC also sent teams to three BCS football bowl games since 2006. In 2013-14, the WAC will create a new digital network to give fans streaming internet access to many of its regular season games and postseason championships including volleyball, soccer, swimming and diving, basketball, softball and baseball. The WAC is the sixth oldest among the nation’s 11 Division I-A conferences. Its history traces back to July 27, 1962, when the original six-team league of Arizona, Arizona State, Brigham Young, New Mexico, Utah and Wyoming began competition. The first championship was held in November 1962, when Arizona won the men’s cross country title and New Mexico followed with the first WAC football title. Arizona finished second in the NCAA College World Series and, less than three years later, Arizona State claimed the league’s first NCAA title when the Sun Devils won the College World Series trophy. Fresno State was the last WAC school to earn an NCAA team title when it won the College World Series in 2008. Since 1962, several changes have occurred. UTEP and Colorado State became members in September 1967, while Arizona and Arizona State withdrew on June 30, 1978. The WAC then added San Diego State (1978), Hawai‘i (1979) and Air Force (1980). Before 1990, the WAC sponsored championships only in men’s sports. However, a merger with the High Country Athletic Conference formed a single conference under one administrative structure, and the 1990-91 athletic year was the first in which both men and women competed under the WAC name. Fresno State was added in 1992, and then in 1996, the women’s programs from Air Force and Hawai‘i along with six new schools (UNLV, Rice, San Jose State, SMU, TCU and Tulsa) came into the WAC. Air Force, Brigham Young, Colorado State, UNLV, New Mexico, San Diego State, Utah and Wyoming withdrew on June 30, 1999. Nevada (2000), Boise State (2001) and Louisiana Tech (2001) were added while TCU withdrew following the 2000-01 season. In 2005, Idaho, New Mexico State and Utah State joined the WAC after Rice, SMU, UTEP and Tulsa withdrew. Boise State withdrew prior to the 2011-12 season. In 2012, the WAC added Denver, Seattle U, UT Arlington, UTSA and Texas State. The current membership began on July 1, 2013 when the WAC added Bakersfield, Chicago State, Grand Canyon, Kansas City, UTPA and Utah Valley to join Idaho, New Mexico State and Seattle U. The new institutions replace withdrawing members, Denver, Louisiana Tech, San Jose State, Utah State, UT Arlington, UTSA and Texas State. The WAC has had just six commissioners in its history. Paul Brechler was named the first leader of the conference and held the position from 1962-1968. He was followed by Wiles Hallock (1968-71), Stan Bates (1971-80), Dr. Joe Kearney (1980-94), Karl Benson (1994-2012) and current commissioner Jeff Hurd (2012-present). Presently, the WAC crowns team and individual champions in 19 sports – nine men’s and 10 women’s. For the men, there are championships in baseball, basketball, cross country, golf, soccer, swimming and diving, tennis, indoor track and field and outdoor track and field. Championships for women are held in basketball, cross country, golf, soccer, softball, swimming and diving, tennis, indoor track and field, outdoor track and field and volleyball. The WAC office has been located in the Denver area since the conference’s inception with the exception of a two-year stay in Phoenix from 1964-66. Debra

The Evolution of the Kangaroo

W

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, UMKC 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 The first Kangaroo emblem was deleted, sparking a tremendous amount of incarnation debate. of Kasey Kangaroo

As the debate wore on, interest from the campus community began was inked by to wane. It looked as if KCU would not adopt a mascot after all. But Marceline, Mo., native in 1937, two events would combine to indelibly link the Kangaroo Walt Disney, with the University and give the mascot a name. and featured the KCU

mascot During the student government elections in the spring semester, a the CO-OP Party adopted the Kangaroo as its official mascot, naming alongside somewhat him Kasey. With a landslide victory in April behind the slogan “Kasey more famous fits KC”, the first part of the foundation was laid. During the same rodent. 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 former UMKC Director of Athletics Tim Hall. With the help of local advertising agency Bernstein-Rein, UMKC 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 UMKC’s mission to be an outstanding urban university while keeping mindful of the traditions established in 1937.
