Upon assuming the presidency, President Kyle immediately focused on leading the university’s initiative to become one of the top 50 masters universities in the nation. The Radford University strategic plan “7-17”, completed in 2007 at her direction, identifies four strategic directives -- the investment in people, programs, global and local society and the future of Radford University. Under President Kyle’s leadership, the university also added its first doctoral program with an emphasis in rural mental health and launched an initiative to grow graduate college student enrollment by offering additional doctoral and masters level programs. She hired the university’s first provost and created two new vice presidential areas of responsibility, Information Technology and University Relations.

President Kyle served as Executive Director of the Virginia Lottery for 11 years, under three successive governors. First appointed by Governor George Allen in 1994, she was reappointed by Governor James Gilmore, PENELOPE KYLE and then reappointed once again by Governor Mark Warner. Previously, Ms. Kyle was employed by CSX CorRadford University poration, an international transportation company, where she became the company’s first female officer. Before President joining CSX Corporation, she was an attorney with McGuire, Woods, LLP in Richmond. She also taught English for six years at Thomas Nelson Community College in Hampton, Virginia. President Kyle serves in leadership positions on numerous educational, civic, cultural, professional, financial and volunteer organizations. She served on the Board of Visitors at James Madison University from 1984 until 1992 and on the JMU Foundation Board 1992 until 1994. She also served on the Virginia Commonwealth University Foundation Board from 1994 until 2000 and on the Board of Governors of Saint Christopher’s School from 1999 until 2005.

RADFORD ATHLETICS
The Radford University athletic program offers 19 varsity sports, eight for men and 11 for women: men’s and women’s basketball, cross country, golf, soccer, tennis, indoor and outdoor track, along with field hockey, swimming, softball and volleyball for women, and baseball for men. The Dedmon Center and the outdoor athletic facilities, which surround the multi-purpose building are the award-winning focal point of a program that has grown rapidly the last three decades. The athletic program has grown dramatically since 1974-75, when men’s sports were first offered on a varsity level. Growth of the program has been rapid, but not random. Each step has been carefully controlled, with new sports being added only to meet existing demands and only after assurances for a quality operation could be met. The result is a well-balanced and highly successful program. Radford currently competes in the Big South Conference. A charter member of the young league, Radford has won 39 League titles in 10 different sports and has advanced to NCAA postseason play in seven sports. Highlander athletics offers strong support for its student-athletes. From academic advising to compliance services, Radford gives its student-athletes the support needed to be successful in the classroom. Radford’s athletic training and strength and conditioning programs allow the student-athletes to compete at their best possible level. A true team atmosphere, the Highlander family consists of each and every Radford student-athlete past and present, the coaches and athletics staff. Support for each program starts from within athletics and reaches out into the general university population and the community at large. Student-athletes and staff support each other, across sports, into training and the weightroom. In addition, strong personal bonds run throughout the Highlander family binding student-athletes, coaches and staff to each other.

LEADERS
Director of Athletics Since being introduced as Radford University’s Director of Athletics in the fall of 2007, Radford native Robert Lineburg has helped usher in a new era of Highlander athletics, marked by unprecedented on-and off-field improvements and successes. In his short time with the department, Lineburg has been the catalyst for a number of changes, particularly in areas such as facilities, personnel and strategic planning. His most visible influence to date has been on the Dedmon Center, where Lineburg has been involved with major renovations to the centerpiece of Radford athletics for more than 25 years. Beginning in the spring of 2008, the facility underwent transformations to the arena, including a new steel-supported roof, a new basketball floor, renovated athletic offices, a new-look natatorium, and improved athletic locker, training, and medical facilities. Along with the initial transformations to the Dedmon Center, an improved state-of-the-art strength and conditioning room, new ticket office and Learning Enhancement Center (LEC), which houses student-athlete academic support, were completed/ added in 2009. In 2010, facility upgrades included a new high-tech videoboard / sound system to the Dedmon Center as well as a new playing surface / irrigation system and dugouts to the Radford University Baseball Field. Lineburg has also overseen the hires of five new head coaches, as well as six new athletic administrators. His hires include women’s basketball head coach Taj Njongba, head volleyball coach Marci Jenkins, ROBERT LINEBURG women’s head golf coach Jeff Radford University Beeler, head men’s soccer Director of athletics coach Marc Reeves and the promotion of track and field interim director Brent Chumbley to head coaches’ status. Among the administrators added in Lineburg’s tenure are executive associate A.D. Randy Butt, head athletic trainer Chad Hyatt, assistant A.D. for communications Joey Beeler, director of student-athlete support services/senior women’s administrator Stephanie Ballein, Associate A.D. for external operations Greg Herring, and Director of Facilities Brad Epperley. As a result of the changes, Radford achieved a banner year in 200809: women’s soccer, men’s basketball, men’s tennis and softball claimed Big South conference crowns and advanced to NCAA Tournament play. Women’s soccer advanced to its fourth tournament, men’s basketball won the Big South regular-season and tournament title to advance to the NCAAs for the first time since 1998, men’s tennis made its third-straight appearance, and softball appeared for the first time and won Radford’s first-ever NCAA tournament game in any sport. Lineburg and the Highlanders backed their success in 2008-09 with a men’s tennis and softball Big South regular season title in 2009-10. Mickey Dean’s softball team went on to win their second straight conference tournament crown before advancing to the Athens, Georgia Regional final with two more NCAA Tournament victories. He and his staff have also been responsible for creating a five-year strategic plan for the Radford athletic department and building an athletics facilities master plan. Additional achievements include ushering in a new athletics Internet site (RadfordAthletics.com), and helping implement a new ticket system (Ticket Return). Lineburg and his staff have also hosted top-level competition, with five Big South championships taking place on
12
the Radford campus from 2008-10.. In addition to making an impact on Radford athletics, Lineburg is also involved in a number of different organizations and committees. He is the chairman of the Big South Conference on Basketball Improvement, a member of the Big South ad-hoc Committee on Basketball Issues, and a member of the selection committee to select Radford University’s Vice President for Advancement. Prior to becoming Radford’s third Director of Athletics, Lineburg’s corporate knowledge was groomed as a marketing associate with Peloton Real Estate Partners in Dallas, Texas. Along with his business experience, Lineburg spent 15 seasons as a college basketball coach, including time as Southern Methodist’s interim head coach. Prior to serving as the Mustangs interim head coach, Lineburg spent eight years as an assistant at SMU. Following his interim tenure, he served two more seasons as an assistant coach at Southern Methodist. Lineburg’s coaching resume also includes assistant coaching positions with the men’s basketball programs at James Madison University and Emory & Henry College, as well as with the Dallas Mavericks summer league team. His coaching experience also took him through the Big South, as he spent time on the sideline at UNC Greensboro. A 1991 graduate of Roanoke College, Lineburg started his collegiate basketball career as a Highlander, where he was a two-year letterman before transferring to nearby Roanoke College to play his final two years. He earned his Bachelor’s in political science with a minor in history. In 1995, he received a Master’s Degree in education from Virginia Tech, where he was also a graduate assistant on the men’s basketball staff. Lineburg is the son of retired Radford High School football coach and athletic director Norman Lineburg and the brother of Dr. Mark Lineburg, the Superintendent of Bristol City Schools, Paul Lineburg, the Assistant Principal at William Byrd H.S. and Wayne Lineburg, who is in his first season as the offensive coordinator at the University of Richmond. He is married to the former Mary Parish, also a native of Radford.

Its primary, constant goal is to develop graduates and outstanding citizens who have contributed in the areas of athletic competition during their tenures of education. Located in the Dedmon Athletic Center, the newly established Learning Enhancement Center is equipped with computers, tutorial rooms, and a study lounge. The Learning Enhancement Center provides direction for student-athletes via academic counseling in conjunction with advisors from the respective colleges at Radford University. Academic support services such as tutoring and supervised study hall are provided, as well as career planning, monitoring of eligibility status, and a host of other guidance and advisory services.

PATRICK D. CUPP STADIUM Patrick D. Cupp Memorial Stadium was completed in 2003 and quickly became one of the premier soccer and track and field stadiums in the Southeast. Cupp Stadium The largest soccer/track facility in the Big South Conference, Cupp Stadium has seating for 5,000 spectators. Four large locker rooms, an on-site athletic training room, and a dedicated laundry room highlight the amenities for student-athletes and teams. The facility also includes a large, fully functional press box with dedicated storage and restrooms. Standard phone lines wireless and hard-wired internet connections were installed to serve all possible media needs. In addition the press box houses the stadiums leading edge scoreboard controls and sound system. In addition to the game-day amenities, Cupp Stadium serves the day-to-day needs of the soccer and track and field programs, all of which have offices inside the complex. The stadium also incorporates offices for RU’s field hockey, men’s and women’s tennis and golf programs. The soccer surface is a Bermuda blend natural grass field. A state-of-the-art drainage system was recently added to assist in keeping the field in top shape year-round. The track is a synthetic surface divided into eight lanes. The stadium also includes jumping and vaulting pits.
STRENGTH & CONDITIONING A component that is vital to the Radford athletic program is the strength and conditioning program directed by Strength and Conditioning Coach Michael Shumaker.
Highlander Athletics have long been recognized as one of the leaders among Mid- Atlantic schools in its conditioning and strength training. It has been an instrumental part in the success of Radford University sports through the years. Under the direction of Shumaker and assistant Strength and Conditioning Coach Kim Faulkner, the program is designed to help each student-athlete reach his or her full potential in their respective sport. Each Radford University student-athlete has strength and conditioning programs unique to their goals as a player. This program, developed by Shumaker, helps prepare RADFORD student-athletes for the long and rigorous in-season schedule. The Strength and Conditioning staff at Radford University is committed to excellence in competition and in life.
Since its founding in 1983, the Big South Conference has matured into a competitive leader in college athletics, actively pursuing excellence on the field of play and in the classroom. The League’s growing presence as an NCAA Division I athletic conference is evident by athletic accomplishments on the national stage, innovative marketing and media partnerships, increased television packages, and quality athletic competition while intentionally fostering the academic, personal, social, athletic and leadership development of each student-athlete. This has evolved into the Conference’s mission of “Developing Leaders Through Athletics.” The Big South Conference was formed on August 21, 1983, when Charleston Southern (then Baptist College) Athletic Director Howard Bagwell and Augusta President George Christenberry began recruiting members into the Big South, receiving initial commitments from Augusta, Charleston Southern, Campbell, Coastal Carolina and Winthrop. One month later, Dr. Edward M. Singleton was selected as the League’s first Commissioner and continued to solicit new members. His efforts led to the additions of Armstrong State, Radford and UNC Asheville, giving the Big South more than the required six members to constitute an official conference. The Big South’s first year of competition was in the Fall of 1984, and in September 1986, the Big South Conference was granted fullfledged NCAA Division I status. During its infancy and prior to securing automatic bids to NCAA Championships, the Big South made early strides in earning at-large berths in several national postseason events, including volleyball, women’s basketball and women’s golf. In 1989, George F. “Buddy” Sasser replaced the retiring Dr. Singleton as Commissioner, and in 1990, the League received its first automatic bid – receiving an automatic qualifier to the NCAA Baseball Championship. Under Sasser’s seven years of leadership, the Conference implemented its public relations and compliance programs, and introduced its first-ever men’s basketball television package, featuring the Big South competing among some of the finest teams in the nation. In August 1996, Kyle B. Kallander replaced Sasser as the third Commissioner, and in his 13 years at the helm of the Big South, Kallander has been instrumental in aggressively promoting the Conference to new levels. The Conference has enjoyed record levels in marketing revenue during the past several years, he has brought television coverage to Big South women’s basketball, baseball and softball for the first time in Conference history, as well as increased national television exposure to the League as a whole through aggressive and unique television packages. Under Kallander’s leadership, the Big South developed and initiated its first long-range strategic plan, re-affirming the League’s vision as a distinctive athletic Conference committed to the quality of institutional life through athletic competition. He also spearheaded the efforts to add football as a championship sport, which came to fruition in 2002, and has solidified Conference membership with the additions of High Point, Gardner-Webb and Presbyterian, and in 2011-12, the return of charter member Campbell University. Kallander’s long range vision has also included technological advancements, as the Conference introduced its first live event video streaming in 2005 and has since expanded its video offerings to more than 600 events annually through a partnership with the member institutions, as well as the creation of several online and social media platforms. In the last 15 years, the Big South has experienced monumental growth and success in nearly every sport. During this time, the Con-
18
ference has had two individual National Champions, more than 200 All-Americans, has reached the “Sweet 16” in men’s soccer, women’s basketball and baseball, has received national Top 25 rankings in men’s soccer, men’s basketball, women’s basketball, baseball, men’s outdoor track & field, and men’s golf, had an individual selected to play in the NCAA Singles Championship four times in addition to the first men’s tennis doubles at-large selection, had the No. 1 ranked men’s golfer in the country, has had the nation’s top scoring men’s basketball team three consecutive years as well as the national men’s basketball scoring leader twice, received an at-large playoff berth in the Football Championship Subdivision in 2006, and had an institution finish fifth in the NCAA Men’s Golf Championships – the highest-ever team finish in an NCAA event. The Conference’s tagline, “Developing Leaders Through Athletics” was unveiled in 2008-09 in conjunction with the Conference’s 25th Anniversary. The League also honored its heritage with the Top 25 “Best of the Best” moments in League history from 1983-2008, with Liberty University’s 10-year women’s basketball championship run from 1996-2007 being crowned the No. 1 moment in the Big South’s first 25 years. The Conference’s on-field accomplishments have been duplicated in the classroom. Annually, more than 40 percent of Conference student-athletes are named to the Big South’s Presidential Honor Roll for maintaining a cumulative 3.0 grade-point average, and the League has had more than 95 Academic AllAmericans in its quarter-century of existence.

GENERAL OUTLOOK
• Radford returns five starters and 13 letterwinners from a squad that went to the semifinals of the Big South Tournament last year, losing to eventual champion High Point in overtime. • The Highlanders are seeking another run to the Big South Championship, where they are three-for-three all-time in championship games. • The look on the field this year will be a blend of experience and new faces as half the team will be upperclassmen and the other half freshmen.
Sohrabi on this season:
“Team chemistry is important to any team’s success. We have a great group of seniors that I think will be good role models for the freshmen. I expect our team to play at a high level and continue to improve every time they step on the field.”
THE ATTACK
• Attacking the net will be a priority this season for the Highlanders. The team loses Justine Dugger, its leading scorer from a year ago who had 12 points (5 goals, 2

assists). • The Highlanders posted two or fewer goals in every game, with the exception of the game against Concord. • Radford, however, return players with goal-scoring experience. Sophomore Mary Wiley returns after tallying an 11-point season, second on the team, and being named 2009 Big South Freshman of the Year. Wiley got off to a hot start, scoring in back-to-back games against Concord and Longwood. She then started conference play with a goal in two out of three games, including a two-goal game in an overtime win against Charleston Southern. An injury sidelined the rest of her outstanding freshman campaign. • The other Highlanders who contributed a goal on the season are Maryellen Derenda (3 goals) and seniors Jourdan McDaniel (2 goals), SharDavia Bell (1 goal) and Molly Hill (1 goal). • The Highlanders also bring in four freshmen forwards, with solid play expected of Julie Ruh’e, Sahar Aflaki, Victoria Jackson and Kathryn Johnston.

Sohrabi on the attack:
“Mary (Wiley) did a great job last year. She has a great competitive spirit. We are hoping returners Latrice Lee, Shardavia Bell, and Rachel Webber will get on the scoreboard a bit more this fall. I think Julie Ruh’e and Sahar Aflaki as freshmen will be dangerous if they can adjust to the physical side of the college game.”
THE MIDFIELD
• The midfield will be one of the key factors to success in 2010. Radford returns five midfielders from the squad last year. • Senior Kathleen Jarvis and junior Maryellen Derenda will lead the charge in the mid. Jarvis comes off a career-high seven starts and played in all but one game last season, contributing one assist. Derenda has experience, making 15 starts and played in every game last season while logging 1428 minutes, the second most of any returning field player. • The Highlanders will have much more depth this season with 11 players listed as a possible option in the midfield.
Sohrabi on the midfield:
“I think games are won and lost in the midfield. It’s good to have a lot of competition for the slots available. In addition it will be nice to have some depth there. We will play many different types of players and formations and I think both will call for possible different lineups at times.”
THE BACKLINE
• The backline will have a whole new look this season as the Highlanders will have to replace a defensive line which had a combined 298 career starts between last year’s senior class (Jill Boyer, Jackie Cozza, Amanda Heins and Caitlin Roan).
2010 Outlook • Seniors Molly Hill and Kayla Enterline will anchor the backline this year. Enterline started in a career-best nine matches last year and Hill saw action in 18 games, also scoring a goal. • The Radford defense had an overall goals-against average of 1.12 and shutout four opponents, including back-to-back shutouts against UNC Asheville and Presbyterian to open the conference schedule.
• Lubke won’t be the only goalie vying for playing time, however. Senior Alex Traughber returns for the Highlanders, having 14 career starts. • Sohrabi has also brought in three freshmen goalkeepers; Allyson Brown Lauren Markey and Che’ Brown, each bringing athleticism to the position.
Sohrabi on the goalkeeping:
“Lisa has done a great job the last two years playing big in some big Captain Kayla Enterline games. She continues to improve in all facets of the game and we Sohrabi on the backline: expect her to have two great seasons as she finishes her career. With five “You can’t replace the character keepers no one can take a day off. I of last year’s senior class. They think our practices will be very competihad a lot to do with our 2008 tive.

Sohrabi on the schedule:
“Starting the season on a good note is going to be important. Early in the season before school even starts we have a few games, so we definitely want to get started in a positive way. All of the games are going to be tough, but the real tough stretch, as far as the non-conference schedule, is going to be against Campbell, Old Dominion, Longwood and American. If we can have some success in those four games, I feel like it’s going to be a positive year. I think those four matches are going to give us some really good experience going into the Big South.”

SOHRABI

Coaching Staff During his 14 seasons on the sideline, Ben Sohrabi has coached over half of the Radford women’s soccer program’s total wins, all-time. Sohrabi’s success may rank him among the best at Radford, but he’s in a class all by himself on the pitch: Sohrabi is the only coach in Radford women’s soccer history to post 100 or more wins and six seasons of 10 or more victories (including two of 15 or more wins). Of the program’s 57 Big South wins since 1993, the most among conference schools alltime, 47 have come on Sohrabi’s watch. With Radford’s five Big South wins in 2009, Sohrabi became the alltime winningest coach in Big South history at a record of 47-35-13 (.563), passing UNC Asheville’s Michelle Cornish. He also tied Cornish with 134 overall wins during a Big South tenure and edged her with a .536 winning percentage. In Big South coaching history, Sohrabi ranks first in overall wins, conference wins, winning percentage and tournament wins. He also ranks third in overall winning percentage (min. 50 games), tournament percentage (min. 10 games) and tenure at a Big South institution. With three Big South championship rings and third career NCAA Tournament appearance in 2008, Sohrabi is tied for the most NCAA showings in Radford athletics history and is one of five Highlander head coaches to win three or more conference titles. In addition his personal accolades, which include the 2002 Big South coach of the year honor and a pair of VaSID coach of the year nods (1997, 2008), Sohrabi’s players have been among the most decorated in Radford women’s soccer history. In his 14 seasons, 29 Highlanders have earned first team All-Conference spots, two have been named Big South Player of the Year (Susan Melanson – 2000; Nikki Porter – 2002, ’03), three have earned League Rookie of the Year honors (Karen Dellavia – 1996; Nikki Porter – 2001 and most recent Mary Wiley - 2009) and one took home Conference Scholar-Athlete of the Year (Kelly Quesinberry – 2000). A 1992 graduate of Maryville College, Sohrabi became the sixth women’s soccer head coach at Radford on April 10, 1996, earning his first Highlander win with a 9-1 rout of Chattanooga at home on Sept. 28. From there, Sohrabi led the BEN SOHRABI turnaround of a program that won just four Head Coach games in 1995 and five in his first season, to one that posted the most wins in team history in 1997. That 16-win campaign still holds up as the most wins for a Radford side and the three losses were tied for the fewest in the Division I era until that mark was bested in 2008. Named VaSID coach of the year in 1997, Sohrabi’s Highlanders went 4-1-0 in Big South play, the second-best record since joining the league for women’s soccer in 1993. Added to that were a perfect regular season mark at home (8-0) and the program’s most First Team All-Big South selections (4) ever. Despite the gaudy record and accolades from 1997, Sohrabi and his team topped those feats in 1998 when he guided the Highlanders to their first-ever Big South title and second NCAA Tournament appearance. After going 3-4 to close out the regular season, Radford posted three clean sheets and netted six Big South tournament goals en route to its first conference crown, and a first round NCAA meeting with in-state foe James Madison. Radford followed up its first NCAA showing with a third-straight 10-win season in 1999, going 13-5-1 while posting the program’s first Big South regular season title at 6-0-0 (one of three teams to go undefeated in league play since 1999). Three seasons later in 2002, Sohrabi’s Highlanders opened up the season winning nine of their first 10 games in rolling to a 15-5-1 record, the second highest win total in school history. Showing the same closing instincts as Sohrabi’s first championship side, Radford outscored its opponents (Charleston Southern, High Point, UNC Asheville) 10-1 in the Big South tournament to claim a second Big South title and second NCAA Tournament appearance in his tenure. This time, the draw for the Highlanders wasn’t a short trip to face an in-state team in the NCAAs: instead, Radford was sent to face storied North Carolina, the winningest program in Division I women’s soccer his-
24
tory and eventual national semifinalists in 2002. That season, Sohrabi earned Big South coach of the year honors and had five of his players named to all-conference teams, including league player of the year Nikki Porter. One of the milestone moments in Sohrabi’s career came in a special place: in 2004, he notched his 100th career win at Maryville, in an ultrarare non-conference game at a Division III foe, as the Highlanders shut out Sohrabi’s alma mater 4-0 on Sept. 7, 2004. The victory brought Radford’s record to 3-1 that season and the Highlanders went on to their fifth 10-win season under Sohrabi. In 2006, Sohrabi became Radford women’s soccer’s all-time winningest coach and reached the 100-victory mark as the Highlander boss. On Sept. 23, Radford defeated Charleston Southern, 3-2, for his 98th win at RU which surpassed Don Staley (1985-93). He notched his 100th Radford victory on Oct. 8 with a 4-0 win at South Carolina State. In 2008, Sohrabi engineered one of the finest seasons of his career and Radford women’s soccer history. Finishing with a 14-2-6 mark, the Highlanders dropped just one regular-season match and two the entire campaign, both program bests on the way to a third Big South championship and NCAA Tournament appearance at Duke. Two factors that attributed to the Highlanders’ success were the work away from home as well as their defense. Radford posted the first undefeated road record (5-0-3) in program history and recorded a goals against average (0.94) under 1.00 for the first time since 1997. Along with the team accomplishments, several individuals were recognized in 2008. Defender Caitlyn Roan became the third Highlander under Sohrabi’s watch to garner All-Region honors, while also being named Big South Tournament MVP, and first team All-Conference and All-State. In all, four Highlanders received 2008 All-Conference and All-State honors bringing the totals during his tenure to 48 and 16, respectively. Under Sohrabi’s guidance, junior Lisa Lubke has climbed the all-time Radford career ranks in saves (220) and shutouts (10), placing her fifth all-time among the Radford greats in those categories. Sohrabi hit an additional milestone this past season, adding to his decorated resume. An overtime game-winning goal by 2009 Big South Freshman of the Year Mary Wiley gave Sohrabi his 150th career win. Before his arrival at Radford, Sohrabi previously served as head coach at Lambuth University in Jackson, Tenn. Sohrabi led Lambuth to a 19-16-2 record in only two seasons after taking over a program in disarray. In 1995, he guided the Eagles to a 16-4-2 record and their first national ranking, 27th overall. A 1992 graduate of Maryville College, Sohrabi was a standout from 1988-91, earning All-South honors in 1991. From 1992-93, he served as executive director of the professional Nashville Metros in the U.S. Indoor Soccer League. He then returned to his alma mater as the assistant men’s and women’s coach from 1993-94. Sohrabi also played semi-pro soccer for six seasons. An avid fisherman, Sohrabi and wife, Beth, reside in Radford.34

Coaching Staff Carrying a resume that includes extensive experience across all levels of soccer, Chris Barrett is in his first season as an assistant women’s soccer coach for Radford. Barrett, who spent the previous five seasons as an assistant on the men’s side, has roots with Radford that run deep: not only was he a fouryear standout with the Highlanders, his development as a coach began and continues at his alma mater. The 1996 Radford graduate made his return to campus in 2006 and began molding the Highlander defense into one of the Big South’s best. He was promoted to a full-time top assistant in 2007, with an emphasis on coaching goalkeepers, recruiting, scheduling, scouting, and practice and game preparation. Under Barrett’s guidance in 2008, Zach Roszel posted the league’s top save percentage (.821) and fought through an injury-plagued season to post the Big South’s second-best goals against average (0.92). As a team, Radford allowed the league’s fewest goals (20 in 19 games) in 2008. Before making his return to the New River Valley, Barrett’s coaching career has included stops at the college, professional, club and high school levels in locations from Christiansburg to Georgia. His impact has been felt throughout southeastern soccer, most notably during his four years in Greenville, S.C. Barrett was co-director of Greenville FC, as well as the program’s director of player development. Barrett’s experience in the Palmetto State also included time at the professional and high school levels. He was an assistant coach and goalkeeper trainer for three seasons with the Greenville Lions, a former United Soccer League D3 Pro club. With help from Barrett, the Lions advanced to the 2001 league title game. Barrett was also a head varsity coach at Greenville High School. From Greenville, Barrett moved on to Conyers, Ga., where he worked as the youth academy director for the Rockdale Youth Soccer Association for two years. In his final stop prior to Radford, Barrett’s career in the youth ranks continued in CHRIS BARRETT Wilmington N.C. as the director of coaching Assistant Coach and soccer operations for the Port City Soccer Club while working as a staff coach for the Cape Fear Soccer Association. Barrett also logged experience at the Division I collegiate level, working as an assistant coach at UNC Wilmington where Barrett helped the Seahawks to a Colonial Athletic Association semifinal trip in 2005 under current head coach Aidan Heaney. His sideline experience also includes time as an assistant coach at West Virginia, and as the head coach at nearby Christiansburg High School. Barrett has also worked with Olympic Development Programs in Virginia, West Virginia, South Carolina and Georgia. On the field, Barrett was a team captain in 1993 and 1994 with the Highlanders, and a Second Team All-Big South selection in 1994. Barrett was a freshman when Radford posted its best-ever regular season record (15-4-2) in 1991. Barrett is fifth on Radford’s all-time saves list with 207. Right after his playing days concluded, Barrett’s coaching career began as an assistant to Spencer Smith. Under Smith and Barrett’s guidance from 1995-98, the Highlanders won 43 games and claimed their first Big South regular season title. Barrett also volunteered his time as a goalkeeper’s coach for the Radford women’s team. Barrett earned his bachelor’s from Radford in leisure services. He is currently working towards a teaching certificate in physical and health education.

2009 SEASON HEADLINES COZZA NAMED TO VASID SECOND TEAM Following a standout senior season, Radford’s Jackie Cozza was named to the Virginia Sports Information Directors (VaSID) University Division All-State women’s soccer second team.
Gardner-Webb. The goal was Dugger’s fourth of the season, and came in her final home game and during Senior Day activities, where Radford honored Dugger, Jill Boyer, Jackie Cozza, Amanda Heins and Caitlyn Roan.
NSCAA TEAM ACADEMIC AWARD Radford University’s soccer programs were recognized by the National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) as one of 97 institutions, nationwide, to have both its men’s and women’s teams earn the organization’s team academic award. To achieve the honor, a team has to post a cumulative grade point average of 3.0 or higher. Radford was one of two Big South institutions and the only school in Virginia to have both its men’s and women’s teams recognized. Radford’s women’s program posted a collective GPA of 3.31, its first-ever NSCAA team academic honor. The Highlanders were one of just two Big South squads to perform at a 3.30 level or better.
BIG SOUTH OPENING WIN Wiley’s goal in the 54th minute, combined with Lubke’s fivesave shutout, led Radford to a 1-0 win over UNC Asheville in the Big South women’s soccer season opener for both teams on Oct. 2. Lubke made five saves en route to her eighth career shutout, and second of the season. Her eighth career shutout moved her into a tie for sixth all-time at Radford with Amy Pseja (1993), and needs one more to become fifth. “These two stepped up like upperclassmen tonight,” Sohrabi said after the game. “They got it done for us at a crucial time.”
FOUR HIGHLANDERS HONORED BY BIG SOUTH Radford’s Mary Wiley was named the Big South Freshman of the Year, while seniors Jackie Cozza and Jill Boyer, and sophomore goalkeeper Lisa Lubke earned All-Conference honors. Cozza was a first team All-Big South honoree, Lubke was a second team-pick, Boyer earned All-Academic honors, and Wiley was additionally named to the all-freshman team. Wiley was the third Radford player to earn the conference’s Rookie/Freshman of the year honor. For Cozza, it was her first conference honor. Lubke collected conference honors for the second time in her career and Boyer earned a spot on the All-Academic team for the second straight year. GOLDEN GOAL ON SENIOR NIGHT Justine Dugger’s direct kick six minutes into the second overtime was good for the golden goal, and led Radford to a 1-0 win over
SOHRABI GETS 150 IN OVERTIME Freshman Mary Wiley scored both of Radford’s goals, including the game-winner in overtime against Charleston Southern, giving head coach Ben Sohrabi his 150th career victory on Oct. 10. HEINS AND LUBKE PLAYERS OF THE WEEK Following a weekend highlighted by her first career goal on Friday, Amanda Heins was named Big South women’s soccer Player of the Week on Sept. 1. Heins helped lead the Highlanders to a 2-0-0 start to the season, scoring her first career goal in a win over Howard and contributing to a shutout against Tennessee Tech. Lisa Lubke, whose back-to-back shutouts led the Highlanders to a 2-0 Big South women’s soccer opening weekend, was named the conference’s player of the week on Oct. 6. Lubke, who was named the League’s Preseason Player of the Year in 2009, is now fifth all-time at Radford with nine shutouts in less than two seasons.
