SEASON INFORMATION

SEASON OUTLOOK Entering his 33rd season at the helm of the women’s tennis program, Pepperdine Coach Gualberto Escudero believes his 2009-10 squad has the winning drive to be a strong force on the court this season. The roster consists of 10 players — two seniors, two juniors, two sophomores and three freshmen. “Every player that we have on the team, when it comes to crunch time, can really raise their level of tennis,” said Escudero, who has a career record of 576-286. “And when they have the chance to win the match, they usually take it in fashion. They have that mentality.” Tania Rice (Burlington, Ont., Canada) and Marigrace Marshall (Sisters, Ore.) will provide leadership and experience as the team’s two seniors. Last season, Rice posted a 7-13 record in singles and finished at 5-12 in doubles. For the second straight year, she made the WCC All-Academic Team, and she also earned WCC Commissioner’s Honor Roll “silver” honors for the third time. “Tania is in great condition to play tennis, and already she’s showing us she’s one of the most dependable players on the team,” Escudero said. “She’s a great contributor both in doubles and in singles, and she provides a boost for the other players on the team.” Marshall saw limited action as a junior, going 0-2 in singles play in 2009. “Marigrace is such a boost for the team as far as support,” Escudero said. “Lately she’s been inside the court coaching some of the players, including Tania [Rice], in both singles and doubles … She’s a loved member of the team.” The team’s juniors are Anamika Bhargava (Collierville, Tenn.) and newcomer Khunpak Issara (Bangkok, Thailand). In 2009, Bhargava posted an 8-14 singles record and found success in doubles, finishing at 20-6. She and former teammate Alex Liles were #78 in the final ITA doubles rankings, and they garnered the WCC doubles team of the month award in February, March and April. Her on-court performance earned her All-WCC first team honors in singles and doubles for the second consecutive season. Escudero said he’s looking for Bhargava to replicate her level of play from her freshman year, when she was ranked in the top 30 nationally. “Anamika knows she can reach that level again and beyond, and that’s what she’s working on now,” Escudero said. “She’s playing great doubles with freshman Marie [Zalameda], and they’re looking forward to winning some doubles at

the number one spot. She has some great hands, and a great feel for the ball. We want her to get a little more aggressive with her play in the court.” Issara, who transferred to Pepperdine in 2009, participated in the 2008 Junior Wimbledon and the 2007 and 2008 Junior Australian Opens and was a top player in her native Thailand. Although Issara is not eligible to play this season, Escudero said her vast tennis knowledge will be an asset for the rest of the team. “Khunpak is an excellent player, she came here with excellent credentials. She has a lot of knowledge and experience in the game,” Escudero said. “She has great hands, and we’re looking forward to the day she can play with the team.” Andrea Oates (Pretoria, South Africa) and Ali Walters (Newport Beach, Calif.) are the team’s returning sophomores. As a freshman, Oates posted winning records in both singles (17-6) and doubles (10-7), and was named to the All-WCC honorable mention team. Her performance in the classroom earned her WCC Commissioner’s Honor Roll “gold” honors. “Andrea’s very bright and energetic,” Escudero said. “We want her to get a little more aggressive, but I’m sure she’ll get the hang of it because she’s a natural winner. We expect her to get stronger, better, faster and help the team tremendously.” Last season, Walters finished at 10-10 in singles and 10-12 in doubles and garnered All-WCC second team honors. She also went undefeated at the WCC Championships. “When Ali’s serve is on, it’s a very effective weapon,” Escudero said. “She has a great reach on the court and can get to a lot of balls. She’s a very natural player.” The Waves’ freshman class consists of Arianna Colffer (Corona, Calif.), Tara Panu (Los Altos Hills, Calif.) and Marie Zalameda (Los Angeles, Calif.). Colffer enters her first collegiate season ranked at #123 in singles, according to the ITA, after winning the Flight A singles event at the Cal State Fullerton Intercollegiates in the fall. In high school, she was a top 25 nationally ranked player, and she won singles and doubles titles at the 2009 Southern California Sectionals. She also reached the quarterfinals of the 2009 girls’ 18 UTSA Clay Court Championships. “Arianna was a great catch and recruit,” Escudero said. “She looks like she can really help us at the top position because of the fire she has, desire she has and tenacity she has.” Panu played four years of varsity

TANIA RICE tennis in high school and was ranked among the 30 in doubles and top 50 in singles in the USTA Northern California girls’ 18. Escudero said Panu will be a tough competitor if she can stay healthy. “Tara is learning from the more seasoned players how to put points together, and how to stay in the point,” Escudero said. “She knows she can make an impact on the team if she can get over the injuries.” Zalameda, a Beverly Hills High School graduate, played three years of varsity at #1 singles and led her team to two CIF championship finals appearances. She also won the Bay League singles championship in 2007. “Marie is very talented,” Escudero said. “She has great hands, great volleys and a tremendous forehand. She is very talented in doubles, very talented in singles, and she’s only going to keep improving at Pepperdine.” Last season, the team won its seventh consecutive WCC crown and 21st overall but couldn’t make it past the first round of the NCAA Tournament. The Waves began the 2010 spring season ranked #40 in the ITA poll. Escudero said his team’s primary goals for this season are to build strength, stay healthy and make it deep into the national championships. “That’s our goal right now — to stay healthy, win conference, win that first round, and finally get past that second round and move to the Sweet 16,” Escudero said. “Once we get there, every team has a chance to make it to the finals.”

COACH BIOGRAPHIES

Elisa Fernandez. After a brief two-year absence from the tournament, Escudero had the Waves back among the nation’s elite in 1988, as the Waves reached the Round of 16 again and went 22-4 for winning percentage of .846, a school record that still stands. Pepperdine has been part of the NCAA Tournament field every year since. Also, the Waves won the WCC title for the first time in 1988. Ginger Helgeson and Janna Kovacevich earned All-American honors for the first time in 1988, as would Noelle Porter in 1989, and each would be key contributors as Pepperdine had a three-year run into the NCAA quarterfinals from 1989-91. The Waves finished with a #5 national ranking in 1991, the school’s best finish in NCAA play. During the short time that the WCC conducted a singles championship, the Waves won six straight titles between 1988-93, with Helgeson capturing the first three, Porter the next two and Sonja Olejar the final one. A new group of All-Americans led by Angela Lawrence (a four-time honoree), Isabela Petrov and Zsofia Csapo helped the Waves to NCAA Round of 16 finishes in four of five seasons between 1995 and 1999.

COACH BIOGRAPHIES

SCOTT DOERNER ASSISTANT COACH THIRD SEASON The 2009-10 season marks the third year that former All-American Scott Doerner has been an assistant coach with the Pepperdine women’s tennis program. Doerner conducts practices for the Waves, handles administrative work and works individually with the Waves’ players. A native of Melbourne, Australia, Doerner was working as the Pepperdine men’s volunteer assistant coach prior to being named to his new post. He took over assistant coach responsibilities in time for the Waves’ 2008 spring dual-match season. Pepperdine has won two West Coast Conference titles, advanced to the NCAA Tournament twice and posted a 33-17 (.660) record in his first two seasons. Doerner is no stranger to the Waves’ tennis tradition, as he was a member of the Pepperdine men’s tennis team from 2003-06 and was a senior and a key member of the squad that captured the 2006 NCAA championship. Doerner was a standout on the court, as he was named an All-American in singles in 2006 and twice in doubles (2005 and 2006). He was also the WCC’s Player of the Year in 2005 and 2006. He was ranked as high as #4 in the country in singles his senior year, and was #1 at one point in doubles with teammate Andre Begemann. He and Begemann finished #2 after earning a runner-up finish at the NCAA Tournament and posting a 33-6 record. After completing his career with the Waves, Doerner played on the professional circuit for a year. He graduated from Pepperdine in 2006 with a degree in international management. Doerner resides in Oak Park.

ALAN HOPKINS VOLUNTEER ASSISTANT COACH FOURTH SEASON Alan Hopkins is in his fourth season at Pepperdine as a volunteer assistant coach in 2009-10. He also served as an assistant coach under Gualberto Escudero from 198589. During his eight previous seasons working the Waves, Pepperdine has reached the NCAA Tournament six times and won six West Coast Conference titles, including each of the last four. He has helped Pepperdine’s players to earn All-American honors seven times. According to Escudero, Hopkins is a doubles expert, and thus focuses much of his time on helping the Waves’ doubles teams to excel. When he’s not on the tennis courts, Hopkins is working as a Chief Financial Officer for Manchester Financial Inc. Hopkins graduated from BYU with a bachelor’s degree in economics in 1985 and earned an MBA from Pepperdine in 1989. His wife, Kristy, is also a Pepperdine graduate and they have two children, Kristopher and Spencer. 2009-10 PEPPERDINE WOMEN’S TENNIS • 6

TENNIS HISTORY

NCAA TOURNAMENT RESULTS 22 Consecutive NCAA Tournament Appearances • 26 Overall Tournament Appearances

Dating back to 1982, Pepperdine has advanced to the NCAA Championships on 26 occasions and has compiled an all-time record of 23-26 (.469). The Waves have won their first-round match in seven of the last eight seasons. Their best finishes have been four appearances in the quarterfinals, three straight from 1989 to 1991 and again in 1994. In 1977, the format was changed with the nation’s top 16 teams playing a single-elimination tournament to determine the NCAA champion. From 1994 to 1998, Pepperdine competed in Region VIII, with the winner of each regional meeting at the NCAA Championships. In 1999, the NCAA tournament moved to a 64-team format that requires teams to win six matches for the title. Since the tournament went to the 64-team format, Pepperdine has played host for the first two rounds in 1999, 2000 and 2006.

THIS IS

“What we hope to build is much more than a beautiful campus. It will, as you can sense, be that. But if that is all we shall have accomplished, we shall have failed. What we hope to create here, in these hills, is a spirit of place. A place where minds will be opened, where lives will be changed, where lasting relationships will be formed.” — Seaver College Dedication, May 23, 1970

PEPPERDINE

• Malibu is located right alongside the Pacific Ocean, just about 30 miles northwest of downtown Los Angeles. Pepperdine’s picturesque campus is just a few hundred yards up the hill from Malibu Beach. The Malibu area, as well as all of Southern California, offers tremendous recreation, sporting and entertainment opportunities.

ATHLETIC

Pepperdine is classified as an NCAA Division I-AAA school (Division I schools that do not sponsor football), and the Waves are one of the very best of their kind. Since the I-AAA Athletic Director’s Association All-Sports Trophy was established, ranking the various schools on their postseason success, Pepperdine has finished in the top six every single time, including in first place twice (2004-05 and 2005-06). In the annual NACDA Director’s Cup standings, which measures overall postseason success, Pepperdine has finished first among all of its West Coast Conference rivals for 13 straight years.

Men’s Basketball

Jennifer Lacy

Over the years, the Pepperdine men’s basketball program has made 13 NCAA Tournament appearances, captured at least a share of 16 conference titles, won three West Coast Conference Tournament titles and sent dozens of players into professional basketball. Head coach Tom Asbury was one of the top coaches in the WCC’s history from 1989-94 and he has returned to Malibu to help the program thrive once again.

Baseball

The 1992 College World Series champions, Pepperdine baseball has recorded a remarkable 32 straight 30-win seasons. The Waves have advanced to the NCAA Championships 25 times, including five times under head coach Steve Rodriguez. Pepperdine has captured 17 regularseason WCC crowns and four WCC Championship Series titles. Twenty-nine alums have gone on to success in Major League Baseball. Dan Haren

Yakhouba Diawara

Women’s Basketball

With seven postseason appearances in the last 11 seasons, the Pepperdine women’s basketball team has developed into a consistent winner and a contender in the West Coast Conference. The Waves made their first-ever NCAA Tournament appearance in 2000 with an at-large bid, then captured the WCC Tournament title and subsequent NCAA appearances in 2002, 2003 and 2006, the most recent coming under head coach Julie Rousseau.

Cross Country / Track

Head coach Robert Radnoti has the goal of national prominence for his cross country and track programs. The Waves were extremely strong in these sports at their SouthCentral campus from the 1930s to the 1960s, with All-Americans and Olympians to their credit. However, the programs were dropped briefly when the university moved its campus to Malibu. The Waves have made great strides in cross country over the years and track was added again in the past few years.

Women’s Soccer

One of the youngest programs on Pepperdine’s campus, the women’s soccer team has quickly developed into among the strongest in recent years. Since its inaugural season in 1993, the Waves have posted 10-win seasons 10 times and made the NCAA Tournament five straight years from 2001-05. Head coach Tim Ward has helped his Waves reach the NCAA’s Sweet 16 on two occasions.

Anna Picarelli

SUCCESS Men’s Volleyball

Pepperdine’s most successful program has won five NCAA men’s volleyball championships, second-most of any school, with the last title coming in 2005. The program is synonymous with head coach Marv Dunphy, who was responsible for four of the titles and has also had a long association with USA Volleyball. Pepperdine has made the NCAA Championships event on 15 occasions, including six times in the past decade.

Jonathan Winder

Men’s Golf

The 1997 NCAA men’s golf champions and a regular at the top of the West Coast Conference’s leaderboard, Pepperdine competes with the nation’s best. The Waves have won 16 WCC titles since 1987 and have 11 straight NCAA regional appearances. Pepperdine won the NCAA title in John Geiberger’s first season and have posted two other top 10 national finishes.

Michael Putnam

Women’s Volleyball

Andre Begemann

For most of its history, the Pepperdine women’s volleyball program has boasted one of the nation’s top coaches in Nina Matthies, who took over in 1983. Since the West Coast Conference added women’s volleyball, the Waves have been the league’s dominant program with 10 titles. Since 1981, the Waves have made 20 trips to the NCAA Championships, including 11 in the last 12 years.

Men’s Tennis

No team has been more consistent then Pepperdine’s men’s tennis program, which wins the West Coast Conference title and makes the NCAA Tournament with amazing regularity. The Waves have won 40 WCC titles, including 19 in a row. Led by head coach Adam Steinberg, the Waves reached the pinnacle in 2006 and won the national championship.

Jesse Smith

Men’s Water Polo

Pepperdine was the host site of the 1984 Olympic water polo competition, so it should be no surprise that the Waves excel in the sport. Pepperdine has advanced to the NCAA Championships 12 times in its history and captured the national crown in 1997. Current coach Jack Kocur was a player on that title team. The Waves have won at least a share of conference titles nine times and have finished in the top 10 in the national rankings every year since 1976.

Katie Wilkins

Women’s Golf

In the last 16 seasons since Laurie Gibbs became head coach, the Pepperdine women’s golf program has developed into a national championship contender. The Waves have won 11 WCC titles, been to 11 straight NCAA Regional tournaments and have made nine NCAA Championships appearances. The Waves finished second in the nation in 2003 and boast four top-five finishes.

Katherine Hull

Sylvia Kosakowski

Women’s Tennis

No coach has been on staff at Pepperdine for more consecutive years than Gualberto Escudero, who took over as women’s tennis head coach in 1977-78. His tenure has featured WCC titles (21, including seven in a row), NCAA Tournament appearances (26, with 12 in a row) and top 25 finishes (including eight times in the nation’s top 10). Lindsay Adarme

Women’s Swimming & Diving

For more than 20 years, Pepperdine has thrived in the Pacific Collegiate Swimming & Diving Conference. The Waves have had nine consecutive topfive finishes under head coach Nick Rodionoff, including a program-best-tying secondplace finish in 2008. Ten of Pepperdine’s 20 record times have come under Rodionoff’s watch.

The fact that Pepperdine has won NCAA championships in five different men’s sports is a rare feat, as the Waves are one of only 14 schools to accomplish this. Making it even more noteworthy is that Pepperdine is the only non-BCS school and is by far the smallest. Following are the 14 schools with their enrollment figures. Arizona State (63,278) California (33,000) Indiana (38,247) Michigan (38,006) Michigan State (45,520) Minnesota (50,042) Ohio State (50,504) Oklahoma State (32,721) Penn State (42,294) Pepperdine (8,000) Stanford (14,890) UCLA (36,890) USC (33,000) Wisconsin (41,466) Additional national championships have been won by the now-defunct football squad (1947 small college), men’s tennis (1952 NAIA), Jerome Jones and Kelly Jones (1984 NCAA Tennis Doubles Tournament), Carlos DiLaura and Kelly Jones (1985 NCAA Tennis Doubles Tournament) and Robbie Weiss (1988 NCAA Tennis Singles Tournament).

COMMUNITY

Pepperdine University’s goal is to “strengthen lives for purpose, service and leadership” and the Pepperdine Athletics Department is a strong believer in helping its student-athletes to meet this goal. The school’s athletic teams embrace the concept of volunteerism and service to the community. Teams are regularly taking on projects that will better the lives of others. Step Forward is an annual day held each fall that is devoted to community service, when more than a thousand Pepperdine students, staff, faculty and alumni will disperse throughout Southern California in order to lend a hand to those in need. Pepperdine’s athletic teams have been front and center as part of this event, as well as other service opportunities year-round.

LIFE SKILLS/SAAC The Pepperdine University Athletics Department is committed to a program of life skills that provides educational experiences and services in order to develop well-balanced life styles for student-athletes; to encourage growth in decision making, planning and fulfillment of career and life goals; and to enhance the quality of the student-athlete experience within the university setting. The program is required for every incoming freshman and transfer student-athlete. Nationally recognized speakers and a life skills class are part of the program. Topics are chosen to support the following commitment purpose statements: • Commitment to Academic Excellence — To support the academic progress of the student-athlete toward intellectual development and graduation. • Commitment to Athletics Excellence — To build philosophical foundations for the development of athletics programs that are broad-based, equitable and dedicated to the well-being of the student athlete.

• Commitment to Personal Development — To support the development of a well-balanced lifestyle for studentathletes, encouraging emotional well-being, personal growth and decision making skills. • Commitment to Service — To engage the studentathlete in service to his/her campus and surrounding communities. • Commitment to Career Development — To encourage the student-athlete to develop and pursue career and life goals. The Student Athletic Advisory Committee (SAAC) is comprised of two student leaders from each athletic team at Pepperdine. National SAACs at a glance: • Generate a student-athlete voice within the NCAA structure. • Solicit student-athlete response to proposed NCAA legislation. • Recommend potential NCAA legislation. • Review, react and comment to the governance structure on legislation, activities and subjects of interest. • Actively participate in the administrative process of athletics programs and the NCAA. • Promote a positive student-athlete image.

WCC

When the West Coast Conference first got its start back in 1952, the founders really had only one goal in mind — to create a convenient way for five Bay Area schools to play basketball. What has grown from that original vision some 57 years ago is a marvelously cohesive athletics league that is competitive at a national level in 13 sports. The eight current members of the WCC span the western coast of the United States from Canada to Mexico. Though the institutions range from the pine forests of Eastern Washington to the sun-drenched beaches of Southern California, the combined excellence in academics and athletics sets the conference apart on the national scene and draws the individual institutions together in a common mission. The WCC sponsors championships in baseball, men’s and women’s basketball, men’s and women’s cross country, men’s and women’s golf, women’s rowing, men’s and women’s soccer, men’s and women’s tennis and women’s volleyball. Originally chartered as the California Basketball Association, the five-team league included Pacific, Saint Mary’s, San Francisco, San Jose State and Santa Clara, and the firstever men’s basketball game was played January 2, 1953. After three seasons of play under that name, the conference expanded to include Loyola Marymount and Pepperdine in 1955, and became known as the West Coast Athletic Conference in 1956. The name was shortened in 1989. The current alignment of Gonzaga University, Loyola Marymount University, Pepperdine University, University of Portland, Saint Mary’s College, University of San Diego, University of San Francisco and Santa Clara University has remained unchanged since 1979, making the WCC the third-most stable athletic conference in the nation. Only the Ivy League and the Pacific-10 Conference have been together longer. Women’s sports were incorporated into the WCC prior to the 1985-86 season, and the league has made steady improvements in several sports, particularly basketball, soccer and volleyball. Since joining the WCC prior to the 1955-56 season, Pepperdine has claimed 129 WCC regular-season team championships in the following sports: baseball (17), men’s basketball (12), women’s basketball (4), men’s golf (16), women’s golf (11), women’s soccer (1), men’s tennis (40), women’s tennis (21) and women’s volleyball (10). Additionally, the men’s and women’s basketball team have each won the league’s postseason tournament three times. The baseball team has won the WCC Championship Series four times. The league relocated its headquarters in the summer of 1998 to San Bruno near the San Francisco International Airport. The WCC hired Jamie Zaninovich as its commissioner in March 2008.

MPSF

The Mountain Pacific Sports Federation was established during the 1992-93 academic year to serve the competitive needs of member institutions from the Big West, Pacific-10, Mountain West, Western Athletic and West Coast Conferences and other selected universities in the western United States; and to provide championship competition for Division I intercollegiate Olympic sports in a conference setting. The MPSF was originally formed to provide enhanced competition and championship opportunities for sports without conference affiliation; to contain the costs of competition; and to ensure the survival of sports impacted by Title IX and other fiscal pressures. The Federation has served as an incubator for emerging women’s sports and as a safe harbor for sports impacted by conference realignments. In men’s volleyball, the Waves have won five regular season and four tournament titles. Pepperdine competes against BYU, Cal State Northridge, Hawaii, Long Beach State, Pacific, Stanford, UC Irvine, UCLA, UC San Diego, UC Santa Barbara and USC. MPSF schools have won 14 of the 17 NCAA men’s volleyball championships since the conference was created (including one by Pepperdine). In men’s water polo, the Waves have won two regular-season crowns. Pepperdine competes against California, Long Beach State, Pacific, Stanford, UC Irvine, UCLA, UC Santa Barbara and USC. MPSF schools have won all 17 NCAA men’s water polo championships since the conference was created (including one by Pepperdine).

PCSC

Pepperdine has been a member of the Pacific Collegiate Swimming & Diving Conference for more than 20 years. The PCSC has allowed a number of swimming programs of all shape and size — NCAA Division I, II and III and the NAIA — who are not affiliated with a major conference to come together and participate at a championship meet. The Waves swim against AlaskaFairbanks, Biola, California Baptist, Cal State East Bay, Chapman, Concordia, Fresno Pacific, Loyola Marymount, Northern Colorado, Seattle, Soka, UC San Diego and UC Santa Cruz. Pepperdine has always been among the top programs in the PCSC and tied its best-ever finish with a second-place showing in 2008.
