Champion TRAIN LIKE A

SAM VIERSEN GYMNASTICS CENTER

Champions need a championship-caliber space to train and the OU women’s gymnastics program has just that at the Sam Viersen Gymnastics Center. One of the nation’s premier collegiate training facilities, Sam Viersen is one of only a handful freestanding co-ed college gyms in the country. The facility was overhauled in 2010, including a 7,000 square-foot addition, and improvements have continued to be made to ensure that OU gymnasts have everything they need to be successful. New graphics were installed in 2016 to showcase the success of the program, highlighting the national championships and All-American athletes who competed for Oklahoma.

OKLAHOMA WOMEN’S GYMNASTICS • 2014, 2016, 2017 NATIONAL CHAMPIONS

THE FUTURE OF OKLAHOMA GYMNASTICS With an addition and renovation in the future for the Sam Viersen Gymnastics Center, the University of Oklahoma is working toward creating an amazing facility for current and future gymnasts who choose to represent the Crimson and Cream. The new space will greatly benefit the student-athletes, adding a team lounge, upgrading the training room and adding a room designated for conditioning. “The addition of the locker rooms, team lounge, training room, wet room spa, massage room, leotard showroom, theater and fitness center will elevate our facility to rival the best the NCAA has to offer,” head coach K.J. Kindler said. “We are so fortunate for the support of Joe Castiglione and his unwavering motivation to push us forward. Our former and current student-athletes earned this amazing facility and the upgrade for future Sooners is a legacy they leave behind. Thank you to everyone who has and will contribute to this much needed capital project.”

Experience CHAMPIONSHIP

LLOYD NOBLE CENTER

Centrally located in the heart of America, the Lloyd Noble Center features some of best collegiate athletics in the nation.

Since its opening in 1975, nearly five million fans have come through the LNC doors in anticipation of a Sooner victory.

The home of OU men’s and women’s basketball and women’s gymnastics, the Lloyd Noble Center’s primary tenants have accumulated a combined eight Final Four appearances, three national championships and 47 conference titles.

The Lloyd Noble Center has been host to some of the best gymnastics in the nation. The Big 12 Championships will be held at the LNC in 2019 with NCAA Regionals coming to Norman in 2020.

OKLAHOMA WOMEN’S GYMNASTICS • 2014, 2016, 2017 NATIONAL CHAMPIONS

BECKY SWITZER TEAM ROOM Named after legendary Oklahoma women’s gymnastics coach Becky Switzer, the meeting room provides a pioneering facility for team meetings, video review sessions and team building activities. Team members frequently come together in the room for sessions on nutrition, team unity, media training and much more. Complete with a widescreen TV, built-in trophy cases, wood floors, custom cabinetry, custom gymnastics artwork and computer workstations, this addition provides an area for the team to unite.

SPORTS MEDICINE

The Oklahoma Athletics Department feels a strong responsibility to help its athletes reach and maintain their optimum health and achieve conditioning goals. For this reason, OU has developed excellent training and conditioning programs to lessen the possibility of injuries. Jenn Richardson is responsible for the daily care, treatment, rehab and prevention of injuries for the women’s gymnastics program. She enters her 12th season at OU in 2017-18.

OPTIMUM NUTRITION A former NCAA gymnast, Tiffany Byrd is on a daily mission to take her job far beyond its title in her work with OU student-athletes. As Director of Sports Nutrition, Byrd recognizes that food is very personal to individuals. Her goal is to have a positive impact and influence on the lives of student-athletes across all sports. “Diet plays a huge role in your energy levels and your ability to recover from workouts and tough competitive schedules,” says Byrd. “A Division I student-athlete has a hectic schedule and lifestyle, and diet is very influential on how they’re able to remain on top of their game.” Among her biggest education tools is the acronym “BOOMER,” developed by Byrd to help her athletes remember the six most important facets of a balanced diet. A student-athlete following a solid nutritional plan might see increased energy, less fatigue and higher levels of performance. As Byrd says, their goal is to “get the body to ultimately do what they need it to do.”

Renovations are complete at Gaylord Family - Oklahoma Memorial Stadium. The project included a new strength and conditioning room, training room, nutrition center, meeting rooms and the equipment operation. Studentathletes from all 21 OU sports will benefit from the space. The OU sports medicine department is expanding and nutritional offerings are growing, which means it can maintain health and rehabilitate at the highest level.

Headingt

GAME CHANGER

Upon the opening of Headington Hall, athletic director Joe Castiglione remarked, “It stands alone in its uniqueness, its sustainability (and) its services to the students who live here.”

PERFECT BLEND

Opened in 2013, Headington Hall is home to over 380 OU residents, including student-athletes and traditional students.

SUITE LIVING

All Headington residents live in one of three premium suites. Each suite features at least two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a kitchennette and a living room.

UNBEATABLE DINING Headington houses the brand new Wagner Dining Hall, offering a variety of healthy and delicious choices many of which have been designed by Oklahoma’s own nutritionist, Tiffany Byrd.

HALL

CLOSE TO IT ALL

Residents of Headington stay where the action is, just steps from Gaylord Family-Oklahoma Memorial Satidum, the South Oval and central campus.

AMENITIES

Headington has been designed to be flexible in addressing the needs of all residents. Units/rooms feature large, adjustable beds, numerous places to study or hang out and a wide variety of dining options.

Community CHAMPIONS IN THE

SOONERS IN THE COMMUNITY

OU lives by a clear and strong motto in dealing with its student-athletes: Inspiring Champions for Today, Preparing Leaders for Tomorrow. To fulfill that promise, the athletics department and student-athletes take an active role in a number of community service projects. Sooner studentathletes are exposed to life outside of sports and school work with opportunities to serve and help others. The Student Athlete Advisory Council (SAAC) is a committee made up of student-athletes from all 21 intercollegiate athletic teams at the University of Oklahoma. The group coordinates community service programs for the Sooners each month. “Giving back is something that benefits us as much as those we’re helping,” says OU head women’s gymnastics coach K.J. Kindler. “It brings us back to reality and makes us realize that there is more to life than collegiate athletics.” Oklahoma’s student-athletes recognize that wearing the Crimson and Cream means representing a popular sports program and themselves as individuals. They are encouraged to respond to a public that adores them, while learning important lessons about making a positive impact in the lives of others and in the community in which they live.

THE PATH TO #1: ASSESMENT The levels of academic preparation, educational orientation and career interests for all incoming student-athletes are evaluated. A staff learning specialist administers a variety of academic skills and career interest assessments. Individual academic support plans are then tailored to match a student-athlete’s academic skills and career interests. Furthermore, all new studentathletes are required to participate in a University orientation, which includes assessment in mathematics placement and foreign language, among others.

At OU, non-athletic career preparation is enhanced through workshops in resume development, job search strategies, interviewing skills and graduate school preparation assistance. The Sooner Career Program is dedicated to educating student-athletes about the world of work and providing a transition from college athletics to their first careers. The program includes the OU Career Fair, career information seminars, opportunities for summer internships in various fields, an employment referral service and mentorship opportunities for graduating student-athletes.

Sooner Housing Center, managed by Athletic Student Life staff, is located across the street from Oklahoma Memorial Stadium. It provides a living environment that is conducive to the academic and personal development of student-athletes. The Sooner Housing Center was the winner of the 1998 President’s Trophy for the outstanding housing center on the OU campus and was recognized for its contribution to academic excellence, innovative programming and campus diversity. The Sooner Housing Center was also selected as the President’s Trophy runner-up in 1997 and 2000.

#2: SKILL DEVELOPMENT A comprehensive tutoring program of approximately 60 tutors provides one-to-one and small-group instruction. Student-athletes are assisted with study skills, problemsolving techniques and specific course material. Athletic Student Life Office counselors may recommend tutors or a student-athlete may request one independently.

Effective communication well is an essential skill in successful personal and professional interaction for OU student athletes. The OU Communications Center offers training for effective oral communication and media relations. A working media conference room featuring a stage and modern audio-visual systems is available in a state-of-the-art communications center.

#6: LIFE SKILLS & MORE OU is a member of the NCAA’s Life Skills Program and is dedicated to contributing to the growth and development of student-athletes through academic excellence, athletic excellence, personal development, community service and career development.

The Study Skills Center provides student-athletes with assistance in college reading strategies and individual instruction for reading improvement. Meanwhile, the Thompson Writing Center offers a dynamic, positive atmosphere to help student-athletes generate ideas and strategies for writing assignments. Consultants help student-athletes organize papers, review grammatical basics, develop proofreading and library research skills, and design resumes. A learning specialist regularly conducts time management and study skills workshops. The staff’s goal is to help student-athletes become independent writers and learners in the academic environment.

#3: COUNSELING Student-athletes receive caring, professional support from Academics as well as Psychological Resources (PROS). This support may take several forms, including career choice, academic or personal decisions. Four professional athletic academic counselors are present to help student-athletes through the educational process.

Understanding computers and having access to them on a regular basis are essential to today’s successful student. The two Athletic Computer Centers, also located in the Prentice Gautt Academic Center, provide studentathletes with computer knowledge and access. The Athletic Computer Centers are open six days a week with extended hours offered during peak times. The Kerr Foundation Foreign Language Center was established to assist student-athletes with speaking, listening, reading and writing in different languages. The Center, coordinated by a Modern Languages department instructor, offers a top-notch multimedia environment for all foreign language instruction. Realizing the increasing role mathematics plays in society today, the Prentice Gautt Academic Center aims to help all student-athletes achieve an understanding of math and related topics in their course work. The Mathematics Center offers regular instruction for student-athletes placed in preparatory mathematics courses and tutorial consultation in all math and statistics courses.

Approximately one counselor per 100 student-athletes is available to assist the student-athletes with planning class schedules, choosing degree programs and setting personal and academic goals. Course attendance and course performance are checked a minimum of four times per semester for each student-athlete participating in the intercollegiate athletic program. The personal health and nutritional needs of studentathletes are monitored by the OU Sports Medicine staff of physicians and certified athletic trainers. The Wagner Dining Hall makes every effort to accommodate the special dietary requirements of OU student-athletes. #4: FACULTY RELATIONS The faculty guest program’s purpose is to enhance the athletic department’s relationship with the faculty and staff. Faculty members are selected to be guest coaches for the week in all sports throughout the academic year. During that time, the faculty guests are provided with a list of planned activities that are designed to give them an opportunity to experience various aspects of the athletic department’s operations and introduce them to student-athlete lifestyles and expectations. #5: RESIDENT LIFE Student-athletes reside in a variety of University housing environments, including the Sooner Housing Center. The

The OU Athletic Student Life program places special emphasis upon recognition of outstanding academic performances by student-athletes. Scholar-athletes with a 3.0 GPA and above are recognized each semester at halftime of a football or men’s basketball game. An awards banquet is held in the Spring to recognize scholar-athletes and special award winners. Graduating student-athletes receive recognition prior to OU’s graduation ceremonies in May at a reception. Each is given an “O” ring, representing their athletic participation and graduation from the University of Oklahoma. All scholarship student-athletes who exhaust their eligibility within eight semesters may receive an additional year of financial aid within a six-year period. Student-athlete leaders from each sport comprise the Student-Athlete Advisory Board, which aims to improve communication with the Athletics Department and University administration regarding student-athletes’ needs and concerns. The Student-Athlete Advisory Board developed a community outreach partnership with the Oklahoma Youth Center, a local residential facility for physically, mentally and sexually abused children. The board also designs programs that encourage excellence in academics and social responsibility and serve to represent student-athletes on campus-wide committees.

The University of Oklahoma has a long and storied history. The rich tradition has given birth to some of the most recognized pageantry in all of college athletics. Here is a look at the origin of some of the elements that create the wonderful atmosphere so unique to OU.

BOOMER SOONER

SOONERS

In 1905, Arthur M. Alden, a student in history and physiology whose father was a Norman jeweler, wrote the lyrics to the fight song, borrowing the tune from Yale University’s Boola Boola but improvising the words. A year later, an addition was made to it from North Carolina’s I’m a Tarheel Born and the two combined to form today’s university fight song. Though the tune was first made known by Yale, the everlasting success of Sooner squads has taken the melody of Boomer Sooner to national popularity.

College sports fans are hard-pressed to find a nickname that is as unique and as tied in to a state’s history as a Sooner. The University of Oklahoma is the only school known as Sooners and those who claim that they are Sooners say it with pride. The Oklahoma Territory opened with the Land Run of 1889. Settlers from across the globe, seeking free land, made their way to the prairies of the plains to stake their claim. One of the few rules to claiming a lot of land was that all participants were to start at the same time, on the boom of a cannon. All settlers who started then were labeled as “Boomers” and the ones who went early were called “Sooners.” OU athletic teams were called either Rough Riders or Boomers for 10 years before the current Sooner nickname emerged in 1908. The university actually derived its name from a pep club called “The Sooner Rooters.” The success of University of Oklahoma athletics teams over the years has made the nickname synonymous with winning.

One of the most recognizable college fight songs in the country, Boomer Sooner immediately evokes enthusiasm from OU fans and sends chills down the spines of those who dare to oppose them.

Boomer Sooner, Boomer Sooner Boomer Sooner, Boomer Sooner Boomer Sooner, Boomer Sooner Boomer Sooner, OK U! Oklahoma, Oklahoma Oklahoma, Oklahoma Oklahoma, Oklahoma Oklahoma, OK U! I’m a Sooner born and Sooner bred and when I die, I’ll be Sooner dead Rah Oklahoma, Rah Oklahoma Rah Oklahoma, OK U!

MASCOTS

The Sooner Schooner is a Conestoga, or covered wagon, reminiscent of the mode of travel used by pioneers who settled Oklahoma. The Schooner is powered by matching white ponies named Boomer and Sooner, and it ventures onto Owen Field in a triumphant victory ride after OU scores. Although the Schooner was introduced in 1964, it did not become the official mascot until 1980. The Schooner is well-recognized by college athletics fans across the country and makes regular appearances at university functions. During OU football and baseball games from 1915-1928, Mex the Dog wore a red sweater with a letter “O” on the side. Mex died of old age on April 30, 1928, and he was so popular among students and faculty that the university closed for his funeral and procession on May 2, 1928. In the fall of 2005, the OU Athletics Deparment introduced costumed mascots. The new characters will act as an extension of the Sooner Schooner and its horses to be enjoyed by fans, especially children, at all OU athletics contests. The costumes feature traditional collegiate gear as part of their regular uniform, but will don team uniforms for football and men’s and women’s basketball. They were voted “Most Collegiate” by the Universal Cheerleading Association (UCA).

CRIMSON AND CREAM

PRIDE OF OKLAHOMA

The student body approved with great enthusiasm and immediately pennants, banners, badges and decorations of every description appeared on the streets, in the windows, at chapel, in classrooms and all public places; however, local merchants could not supply the demand.

In the early years of the 1900s, both townspeople of Norman and students of OU participated in a band that played for football games. Professor John Merrill started the first band in 1901, which was composed mostly of townspeople and disbanded after each football season. Lloyd Curtis, a cornetist, founded the first continuous student band in 1904.

In the fall of 1895, Miss May Overstreet, the only woman on the faculty, was asked to chair a committee to select the colors of the university. The committee decided the colors should be crimson and cream and an elaborate display of the colors was draped above a platform before the student body.

Even though the school colors have evolved to red and white over the years, you can ask any self-respecting Sooner what the colors are and they will proudly announce “Crimson and Cream.” On gamedays, a sea of crimson rolls through OU’s home venues and all Sooners are urged to wear the official colors to show the rest of the country what school spirit and Sooner Pride is all about.

The Pride of Oklahoma Marching Band has been supporting Sooner Spirit for more than a century. Unlike many other college bands, which began as military drill units, the Pride of Oklahoma had its beginnings as a pep band.

Today, the 300-member Pride of Oklahoma has members representing virtually every college and major on campus. The Pride of Oklahoma stands for excellence in musicianship, academics, school spirit, and commitment to our role in the surrounding community.

sooner

Boomer Sooner rings out at the end of each rehearsal, and that song is the defining element of the University of Oklahoma. Maybe that is why Sooner fans love the band so much. Not much can compare to the first “go-go” at a football game when the Pride of Oklahoma marches the interlocking OU down the field playing Boomer Sooner.

OU CHANT

The OU Chant is a loyalty song that is sung before every home football game, before and after every men’s and women’s basketball games and at the end of many athletic and university functions. Every fan who wears the official colors, each current student and student-athlete and all OU alumni are encouraged to stand and raise one finger in the air during the playing of the Chant - a symbolic gesture that shows those who do not know what it means to be a Sooner, the greatness of the university and the unity between all Sooners. The Chant was written in 1936 by Jessie Lone Clarkson Gilkey, who directed the OU girl’s glee club from 1936 to 1938 and was voted Outstanding Faculty Woman in 1937. O-K-L-A-H-O-M-A Our chant rolls on and on! Thousands strong Join heart and song In alma mater’s praise Of campus beautiful by day and night Of colors proudly gleaming Red and White ‘Neath a western sky OU’s chant will never die. Live on University!

THE CITY OF Norman is an ever-changing city of nearly 120,000 residents. Located in the heart of the state, it has grown to become the third largest city in Oklahoma. Despite its continuous growth, it has maintained the spirit and serenity of a small close-knit community. Since the Oklahoma landrush of 1889, Norman has grown into a popular and smart city. The spirit of Norman and its citizens is unwavering and uncompromising. While other towns were clamoring to become the state capital, Norman residents desired to have the first state university. When the first OU president got off the train and saw a prairie, he saw opportunity. As home to the state’s premier educational institution, Norman boasts an excellent quality of life and is a city that thrives on and celebrates the diversity of its community. Legendary University of Oklahoma football coach Barry Switzer called Norman “a university town with a championship spirit.” Norman continually exhibits its love for sports by hosting numerous local and national athletic events. In the last six years alone, Norman has served as host of the NCAA Men’s Gymnastics Championship, an NCAA men’s golf regional, NCAA softball regionals, NCAA men’s and women’s gymnastics regionals, NCAA women’s tennis regionals, NCAA track and field regional, NCAA soccer first rounds and the NCAA women’s

Norman

basketball regionals. In addition, the Big 12 Conference Men’s and Women’s Tennis, Track and Field, Wrestling, Women’s Golf, and Women’s Gymnastics Championships were held in Norman. Cultural activities are unlimited in Norman, making it the ideal backdrop for the University of Oklahoma. As home to people of all ethnic and educational backgrounds, the city has something to offer everyone. Norman is home to a variety of enriching events and attractions, including the Sooner Theater, which hosts a series of entertaining theatrical performances produced by locally-based talent and touring companies.

The Medieval Fair has become a springtime tradition in Norman as people from around the country converge on the city for one weekend each April to partake in a fascinating look back in time. Each year, an area park is transformed into a festival of sights, sounds and tastes straight from the Middle Ages. Knights joust, jesters entertain and story tellers spin tales of a magical time in history.

The $44 million Sam Noble Oklahoma Museum of Natural History, a stateof-the-art facility designed to display a collection of historical and natural science items that trace the southwest’s development since prehistoric times, opened in May 2000. History buffs will also enjoy the Cleveland Country Historical House which holds exhibits relating to the development of this area of the state. For art enthusiasts, the Fred Jones Jr. Memorial Art Center houses permanent collections, nationally and worldrenowned traveling exhibits as well as a yearly student art show. The museum has recently added the Weitzenhoffer Collection of French Impressionist paintings - the single most important gift of art ever given to a U.S. public university. Maintaining a progressive approach to the future while remembering its history, Norman continues to be a well-balanced community, proud to be the home of the University of Oklahoma.

Oklahoma City, the capital of Oklahoma, is located just 18 miles from the Norman campus. It was the first city settled in the Land Run of 1889 because of its position as the center of the state. It is because of this central location that Oklahoma City has become known as the home of America’s Western heritage. Whether adventure, history, culture or sports, Oklahoma City offers a variety of attractions and activities different from any other place in the country. Oklahoma City was born on the afternoon of April 22, 1889, when the central portion of what is now Oklahoma was opened to settlement by presidential proclamation. Thousands crossed the borders of “unassigned lands” at the sound of gunfire at high noon. Never before or since has such a “run” occurred anywhere on the earth. By the time the dust had settled on that historic day, many people had staked their claim at “Oklahoma Station,” an area which was destined to become Oklahoma City, a leading city in America. In 1911, Oklahoma City officially became the capital after a statewide election moved the state seal from Guthrie.

The Thunder call the Chesapeake Energy Arena in downtown OKC home. The sparkling arena has recently hosted an NCAA Volleyball Final Four in addition to major musical acts like Justin Timberlake, Bruno Mars, Eric Church, Ariana Grande and more. The Oklahoma City Dodgers, 1996 American Associate champions (then as the Oklahoma City 89ers), are the Triple-A baseball affiliate of the Los Angeles Dodgers. The team plays in the 13,000-plus seat Chickasaw Bricktown Ballpark, one of the plushest venues in all of minor league sports. The ballpark served as host to a 2004, 2005, 2006 and 2007 NCAA baseball regionals and hosts the Big 12 Baseball Championship on an annual basis.

Oklahoma

Oklahoma City has become a haven for exciting sports action. It is home of an NBA team in the Oklahoma City Thunder, two semi-professional sports teams and the host of the NCAA Women’s College Softball World Series and Big 12 Baseball Championship. In addition, the city has hosted numerous PGA and Senior PGA Tour events.

AFTER A RECORD BREAKING YEAR AND A HEARTBREAKING LOSS AT THE NCAA SUPER SIX, WHAT’S IN STORE FOR THE 2019 SOONERS AS THEY LOOK TO RETURN TO THEIR SPOT ON TOP OF THE PODIUM?

HISTORY MADE In NCAA history, no team has ever reached the 198 mark 10 times in one season…until 2018. OU seized the year by becoming the most dominant team in NCAA competitive history. The 198 is a coveted score reserved for only the most elite programs. In 2018, the Sooners set the NCAA record in addition to recording this score in the NCAA regional, semifinal and Super Six.

HOME SWEET HOME The home schedule for the Sooners rivals all others in the NCAA. Powerhouse programs such as UCLA, Florida, Alabama and Georgia will all travel to OU in 2019. The 2019 home slate will open with a young and challenging Georgia squad. Preseason No. 3 Florida takes the stage at the beginning of February for a women in sports celebration. Next, an epic matchup between No. 1 UCLA and No. 2 OU will wow fans in early March. Finally, the Crimson Tide will celebrate senior night with the Sooners on March 15. The Sooners look forward to capping off this amazing schedule by hosting the Big 12 Championship in Lloyd Noble Center.

STEPPING UP Many Sooner veterans have stepped up in the off-season. Senior Brenna Dowell is pushing for a beam position while Alex Marks #PZTSF has her sights set on the bar lineup. Both would be “newcomers” The 2018 season culmination was a heartbreaker for the Sooners to these lineups in 2019. Anastasia Webb has been pounding the missing out on a fourth National Championship by only .0375 to the UCLA Bruins.

Maggie Nichols is stellar as always and Jade Degouveia After nailing down another 198 performance, the Sooners looked is focused on new opportunities on vault and floor. Carly Woodard is looking amazing on beam with a new series and her usual flair. on as Bruin Peng-Peng Lee performed on beam. She needed a perfect score to move UCLA to the top of the podium, bumping a veteran OU team. Lee delivered a 10.0 and the Sooners would finish a close runner-up, marking the team’s ninth finish in the top three in school history. The Sooners lose four stellar seniors from the 2018 group. The losses total five competitive positions including two on beam and one position on each of the remaining events. Stefani Catour held the coveted starter position on beam given to the most mentally strong and consistent Sooner beam worker. Natalie Brown left a vacancy on beam, and AJ Jackson’s power and spunk will be missed on vault and floor for OU.

NEWCOMERS ABOARD Emma LaPinta, Allie Stern, Karrie Thomas and Olivia Trautman comprise the OU class of newcomers. The incoming Sooners will need to contribute right out of the gate to replace valuable losses and increase overall depth on all events. Trautman looks to make the biggest impact of the group as a potential all-arounder for OU. She will be a staple in the floor and vault lineups and looks to break into the beam and bar line-ups as well. “Olivia is a powerhouse,” Kindler said. “She reminds me of former Sooner Kiara Redmond. She can tumble and vault with ease and

quickness. But what I love about Olivia is her stoic demeanor. She approaches practice and pressure situations with a calm confidence. It appears nothing rattles her.”

“We are all so proud of Maggie,” Kindler stated. “It was a challenging season for her emotionally and this moment was a highlight for her. I can say undoubtedly that though she is an As a transfer from Maryland, Thomas joins the Sooners looking incredible talent, her character, strength and courage set her up to contribute on bars and beam. At Maryland in 2018, Thomas for this great accomplishment. When the moment came, she was competed in 100 percent of the competitions on both these events completely prepared for it.” recording high scores of 9.9 and 9.875, respectively. Along with Nichols are five Sooners athletes likely to perform in “Karrie will fill a vital role on bars for OU this season,” Kindler the all-around this season including Dowell, Lehrmann, Showers, said. “She is a natural swinger with a dynamic dismount. What Trautman and Webb. This is the largest number of potential allimpresses me most is her work ethic and her willingness to adjust arounders the Sooner squad has seen in the past decade. With six when given corrections.” athletes slated to contribute on all four events, it will be important for the Sooners to split responsibilities amongst all team members Stern and LaPinta have made great strides this preseason and to maintain balance. are slated to compete. La Pinta is particularly strong on floor and beam. Stern, the former Junior Olympic vault champion, will make “We fully expect to have numerous all-arounders taking turns a big impact for OU with a 10.0-valued vault. throughout the season,” commented Kindler. “We must be in “Allie improves every day,” Kindler commented “She is motivated excellent physical condition to sustain the challenging schedule and committed. She had an injury that set her back this summer and be our healthiest at the end of the season. Strength is a but stayed equally dialed in during that time, allowing her to priority. Recovery is the key.” rebound quickly. Emma’s confidence has tripled since arriving on campus and her heart is in it 100 percent.” FIRE STARTER Junior Bre Showers is taking on additional responsibility this THE COMPLETE PACKAGE season as the starter on vault, bars and floor for the Sooners. NCAA All-Around Champion Maggie Nichols brought home the Showers has earned this spot through her consistency in first all-around crown for OU since Kelly Garrison held the trophy both practice and competition and her impressive technical in 1989. background. In addition, her teammates respect her leadership

and believe in her abilities. “It’s very difficult to find something wrong with Bre’s gymnastics,” Kindler said. “Her execution is off the charts. This quality, her ability to be aggressive under pressure and the trust her teammates place in her have made her the obvious choice. Two seasons ago in 2017, Charity Jones started us off on three events and it is one of the best decisions we had ever made, concluding with a national championship that year.” VAULTING TO THE TOP The Sooners continue to impress on vault after a season in which they posted the second-best score in program history on the event with a 49.650. Vault has received the biggest upgrade for the Sooners in 2019. File the Sooners amongst the best in the country with difficulty, power, and amplitude abound.

“Brenna returns as a national champion and she earned that title not just at the end of the season but all year long,” said Kindler. Her stickability was astounding.” The depth here is quality and should assure a lineup that can be shifted weekly. Degouveia, Dowell, Lehrmann, Nichols, Showers and Webb are the veteran vaulters returning from last season. All six will continue to provide the foundation of this line-up, but the options for additional contributors have increased, making vault a top event for OU. Degouveia, Dowell, Nichols and Showers all earned All-America honors on the event so the lineup has the potential to be littered with the best talent in the country.

“This core group of six were stellar last season competing the most difficult vaults in the country and we expect nothing different in 2019,” Kindler said. “We have added three additional 10.0 valued Senior Brenna Dowell wowed Sooner fans last season with a perfect 10 and an NCAA Individual National Championship. Dowell vaults from Lehrmann, Trautman and Stern which should boost our stock on this event.” is slated to compete in the final spot on vault for the Sooners.

OKLAHOMA WOMEN’S GYMNASTICS • 2014, 2016, 2017 NATIONAL CHAMPIONS

The likely starter for this event will be Showers. Showers earned a 10.0 in Junior Olympics on this event and was crowned the JO National Vault Champion during her career. She performs a picture-perfect Yurchenko full. “Bre was made for this starter position on vault,” Kindler stated. “Last season she was a rock in postseason, rising to the occasion under the greatest pressure. She is the right person for this job.” To round out the vaulting lineup, returner Evy Schoepfer has mastered the Yurchenko full and is training her upgraded vaults weekly. Woodard will also provide needed depth on this event. SWINGING WITH THE STARS The Sooners lose Stefani Catour from the 2018 lineup but return a slew of experienced swingers including 2017 bar national champions Lehrmann and two-time bar champion Nichols. Add Dowell, Showers and Webb to the mix and you have a world-class lineup in the making.

high-flying releases and smooth transitions. Nicole Lehrmann is perfection every day. There is a quality to this lineup that is simply amazing.” To replace Catour are bar workers worthy of the attention. Natural swingers and high-flyers Alex Marks, Thomas and Trautman are commanding on this event providing dynamic release sequences and sky-high dismounts. They will fill the void with a goal to keep this lineup center stage nationally. “Alex, Karrie and Olivia are paramount to the bar lineup,” added Kindler. “All three have earned the opportunity and have the potential to bring in the 9.9 scores that OU is accustomed to. The depth they add to this squad is not only important, it is essential.” Finally, four additional athletes are on track to provide more depth behind the scenes. Degouveia, Jordan Draper, Schoepfer and Stern all have beautiful routines in the works and are prepared to step in.

We take the details are impeccable. Maggie Nichols is breathtaking in her

pride in this element of our program and we strive every day to color outside the lines.” In 2018, OU must replace steady Catour and the grace of Natalie Brown. The Sooners are up to the task with six confident returners who have experience at the highest level. There are many options to start the beam lineup in Catour’s absence, but newcomer and Minnesota native Olivia Trautman is becoming the chosen one. “Olivia likes to go first. This is a great trait for someone in this position…a comfort with being first,” raved Kindler. “She is very calm and unphased which allows her to eliminate distraction and focus on the task at hand - hitting! She will definitely set the tone for this impressive line-up.” Anchoring the squad in 2019 is beam extraordinaire Nichols. A crowd favorite in all that she does, she is the bang at the end of this lineup that will bring in a huge score for the Sooners every time. “Maggie is stunning on beam” Kindler said. “I always know that she will deliver time after time. And, that is a daily event, not

saved specifically for competition. Her poise is contagious.” Dowell, Lehrmann, Showers, Webb and Woodard round out the top seven in a very competitive event for OU. All five have upgraded from last season and are unique in their own way. “Bre is captivating, Anastasia is aggressive, Carly oozes confidence, Nico is striking, and Brenna is knocking at the beam door every day,” exclaimed Kindler. Other Sooners to watch for on balance beam are Schoepfer, LaPinta and Thomas. FOUR ON THE FLOOR NCAA finals are changing and “Four on the Floor” will be the new catch phrase for the final night of competition at the NCAA Championships. floor is glorified as the most exciting and entertaining event in collegiate gymnastics. It combines athleticism with artistry and requires a well-rounded athlete to command attention. OU has focused on every angle necessary to bring a floor routine to life and captivates its audiences with every performance.

OKLAHOMA WOMEN’S GYMNASTICS • 2014, 2016, 2017 NATIONAL CHAMPIONS

The remarkable AJ Jackson will be missed on floor this season, but that won’t stop the entertainment value of this Sooner squad. Likely additions in 2019 are Degouveia, LaPinta, Lehrmann and Trautman. All four athletes have the entire package boasting strong tumbling paired with eye-catching dance. “Jade, Emma, Nico and Olivia are performers,” Kindler said. “They can capture your attention, keep your attention and have you recalling their performances for days to come. They will make an impact on you. From fun to serious to mysterious, all their routines bring something different to the table in terms of style.” Starting the lineup will be the engaging Bre Showers. Showers has a unique style and a magnificent performance quality. Crowdpleaser Brenna Dowell will once again bring an incredible and unique first tumbling pass in her double front which is rarely seen in the collegiate ranks. Nichols carries a 2018 NCAA Individual Championship on floor to the table and takes a serious turn in her music this season reflecting another side to this captivating athlete. “Maggie and Brenna set the standard here,” Kindler continued. “Brenna tumbles her way into your heart and Maggie drops your jaw when she steps out on the floor. The two are essential to our

success on this event.” Anchoring the squad is freshman phenom and 2018 JO National floor Champion, Olivia Trautman. Trautman can tumble. She can dance. She can leap. She is the entire package. “Olivia is going to knock Sooners socks off,” Kindler said. “There is no way that you can picture what she is capable of by simply looking at her. Don’t judge a book by the cover and don’t judge Olivia by her stature. She is explosion in a bottle.” Other athletes prepared and ready to roll include Draper, Schoepfer, Stern and Woodard.

HEAD COACH - 13th SEASON 344-53-3 RECORD AT OU COACHED OU TO FIRST THREE NATIONAL TITLES (‘14,’16,’17) FIRST COACH TO LEAD TWO PROGRAMS TO THE SUPER SIX

THREE-TIME NATIONAL COACH OF THE YEAR 12-TIME BIG 12 COACH OF THE YEAR COACHED 109 ALL-AMERICANS COACHED 57 BIG 12 INDIVIDUAL CHAMPIONS individual national champions on the bars. Additionally, OU paced the nation with 14 regular season All-America accolades from the NACGC/W. Kindler earned Co-Big 12 Coach of the Year and South Central Region Coach of the Year honors in a season that saw her squad win the conference for a sixth straight season and advance to national meet behind an eighth straight regional win. The 2016 season was one for the record books. The Sooners snagged their second national title in program history and first outright win, posting a 197.675 during the Super Six in Fort Worth, Texas. The meet capped a season in which the Sooners posted a 38-1-0 overall record, with their lone loss coming in their season opener. Nine Sooners earned a program-record 18 All-America honors. Leading the way was junior Capps, who was named a five-time All-American. The Sooners continued their recent postseason dominance in 2016, securing an unprecedented fifth straight Big 12 title and a seventh consecutive regional crown, doing so at the NCAA Iowa City Regional. In total, seven Sooners earned a combined 10 regular season All-America accolades from the NACGC/W.

It has been 13 years since Oklahoma Athletic Director brought head coach K.J. Kindler to Norman to lead the Oklahoma women’s gymnastics program. In just over a decade, Kindler has seen her transformative vision for the Sooner program become a reality. A three-time National Coach of the Year, Kindler led her program exactly where many said it could never go. OU’s head coach has taken the Sooners to the absolute height of the NCAA gymnastics world with NCAA Championships in 2014, 2016 and 2017, eight top-three national finishes, nine straight regional titles, 109 All-America honors and 10 Big 12 titles. In 2018, the Sooners were the No. 1 team in the nation the entire season, culminating in a runner-up finish at the NCAA Championships. The Sooners earned their seventh straight Big 12 title and ninth straight regional title along the way to setting a NCAA record of 10 scores of 198 or better during a season. The Sooners finished the season with three consecutive scores of 198 or better, a feat they achieved three times throughout the season. Eight gymnasts combined for 16 All-America honors, including Stefani Catour, Jade Degouveia, Brenna Dowell, AJ Jackson, Nicole Lehrmann, Maggie Nichols, Bre Showers and Anastasia Webb. Dowell and Nichols became individual national champions, with Dowell earning the vault title and Nichols taking home the all-around, bars and floor titles. Additionally, the Sooners added 10 regular season All-America accolades from the NACGC/W. Nichols became a five-time All-American, joining Chayse Capps (2016) and Kelly Garrison (1988) as the only Sooners to accomplish the feat. In 2017, the Sooners won their second straight and third overall national title with a 198.3875, the highest ever score by any team at the NCAA Championships. OU finished the year with a perfect 33-0 overall record, the first undefeated season in program history. Five gymnastics combined for 12 All-America honors, including Chayse Capps, Stefani Catour, AJ Jackson, Nicole Lehrmann and Maggie Nichols, while Lehrmann and Nichols became

Kindler’s 2015 Sooners were impressively dominant throughout the season, earning a perfect 14-0 record during the regular season for the nation’s only undefeated regular season. The Sooners also spent the entirety of the regular season ranked No. 1 nationally, earning the top spot in the rankings for an impressive 12 straight weeks. OU captured its fourth consecutive Big 12 Championship (a league first), the NCAA Norman Regional title and 11 regular season All-America honors. Kindler led her Sooners to a strong finish at the NCAA Championships in Fort Worth as the team achieved its fifth Super Six appearance since 2010, taking third place overall. Kindler’s OU squad earned a then-program-record and nation-leading 13 All-America honors and every Sooner competing in event finals finished in the top 10 nationally on their individual events. In recognition of Oklahoma’s extraordinary and dominant season, NCAA gymnastics coaches voted Kindler the 2015 National Coach of the Year. Kindler has been named Coach of the Year three times in her career (2005, 2010, 2015), including two times as head coach at Oklahoma. A visionary with the heart and willpower to accomplish what few thought was possible, Kindler made Oklahoma only the sixth team in NCAA history to win a women’s gymnastics championship in the 2014 season. Kindler’s 2014 Sooners were Big 12 champions, NCAA Minneapolis Regional Champions and earned nine NCAA All-America awards. She also coached three gymnasts to toptwo finishes at the NCAA Championships, including balance beam champion Taylor Spears. Spears became OU’s first individual national champion in 26 years and was joined by Maile’ana Kanewa (floor exercise) and Haley Scaman (floor exercise) in earning top-two NCAA finishes. The 2014 Sooners won their title in record-breaking fashion at the 2014 NCAA Championships, posting a meet-record 198.175 to tie Florida atop the podium. OU earned program-record scores at an NCAA Championship meet on three out of four events. In 2013, Kindler led OU to the program’s third NCAA Super Six team finals appearance. The squad earned seven All-America honors en route to a second-place team effort overall, tying for the highest finish in program history. The performance marked OU’s third top-three finish in the last four seasons under Kindler. Kindler’s 2010 team also achieved a second-place finish in OU’s first-ever Super Six appearance.

OKLAHOMA WOMEN’S GYMNASTICS • 2014, 2016, 2017 NATIONAL CHAMPIONS

With the performance, Kindler became the first head coach in NCAA history to lead two separate programs to the Super Six (Iowa State--2006; Oklahoma--2010, 2011, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017). Under Kindler’s leadership, OU has captured ten Big 12 championships, nine consecutive NCAA regional titles and 109 NCAA All-America awards. The collegiate gymnastics community has recognized Kindler for her coaching achievements, awarding her National Coach of Year honors three times, Regional Coach of the Year accolades eight times (2004, 2006, 2010, 2011, 2013, 2014, 2016 and 2017) and Big 12 Coach of the Year laurels 12 times (2004, 2005, 2006, 2008, 2010, 2011, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018). Kindler has bolstered OU to new heights, coaching 109 All-Americans, 63 Big 12 Champions and 55 NCAA Regional champions in just 12 seasons at Oklahoma. Kindler has combined athletic and academic success throughout her career with 91 Academic All-Big 12 honorees and 49 NACGC/W Scholastic All-Americans at OU. The 2013 season marked one of the finest in Oklahoma program history. OU spent the entirety of the season ranked in the top three nationally, including two weeks at No. 1. The primary beam coach, Kindler led the beam squad to a No. 1 ranking for 11 consecutive weeks during the regular season. OU defeated nine top-25 teams, including four top-10 squads, en route to the program’s 11th conference title and an NCAA Regional championship. The Sooners’ regular season efforts were recognized with a nation-best 11 NACGC/W AllAmerica awards. Kindler’s leadership throughout the team’s stellar season earned her Coach of the Year honors from the Big 12 and the South Central Region. Kindler’s OU squad was marked by excellence at both the team and individual levels in 2013. The team posted a 197.375 at the NCAA Championships to finish as the nation’s runner-up, tying for the highest finish in Sooner history. OU scored a 197.000 or better at 13 meets in 2013, tying an NCAA record for most such meets in a single season. In 2012, Kindler led the Sooners to team titles at the Big 12 Championship and the NCAA Champaign Regional. Kinder was named conference coach of the year and OU captured seven All-America awards and a seventh-place finish in the country. Kindler was named the South Central Regional Head Coach of the Year in 2011 after guiding OU to its third undefeated regular season in four years. A program-best 11 OU gymnasts were named All-Americans as the Sooners went on to win an NCAA Regional title and finish third in the nation. On Jan. 23, 2011, Kindler collected her 100th win with the OU program as the Sooners defeated TWU, 196.175-193.050. OU is a combined 179-48-2 in seven seasons under Kindler; she has helped the program to its four best win percentages in program history in the last four seasons. In 2010, the National Coach of the Year, Regional Coach of the Year and Big 12 Coach of the Year led Oklahoma to a national runner-up finish at the NCAA Championships with seven AllAmericans, including Big 12 Sportswoman of the Year Hollie Vise. Vise was an All-American on bars, beam and floor and finished as the national runner-up on bars and floor. Under the direction of Kindler, the Sooners closed 2010 with a final record of 29-3. The win total broke the previous program best of 26 that was set in 1989 under Becky Switzer. Kindler guided the Sooners to the only undefeated regular season in the NCAA in 2010 (22-0) en route to postseason titles at the Big 12 Championship and NCAA University Park Regional. OU was ranked first or second in every regular season poll in 2010, as the Sooners were the only squad in the country to score above a 196.000 in every meet. Oklahoma also picked up its first win over a No. 1 opponent in program history in 2010 with a 197.950-197.275 victory over top-ranked Alabama on March 5. OU eclipsed its previous program best (197.725) by 0.225 in the win, which was the highest score in the NCAA that season. Kindler’s squad continued its Big 12 dominance, winning its third straight Big 12 title with a team score of 197.175, the highest score by a conference champion since 2001. OU swept all four team event titles and won at least a share of all four individual event titles. The Sooners won their second-straight Big 12 title in 2009, while posting individual event titles on bars and beam at the conference championship. Megan Ferguson earned All-America status with her stellar performance on beam as the Sooners won eight beam titles in 2009. In 2008, Kindler guided Kiara Redmond as the senior capped off her illustrious career with four additional All-America honors, moving her career total to nine - the highest tally of any gymnast in program history. The 2008 campaign started with 21 consecutive victories, including all 18 regular season meetings, as OU finished the regular season as the only undefeated team in the country. Oklahoma produced a conference-leading nine spots on the 2008 regular season All-Big 12 Team.

OU recorded only two scores lower than 9.8 in the final three events of the 2008 conference championship as the Sooners clinched at least a share of all four individual event titles marking just the third time in Big 12 history that a school clinched at least a share of all four apparatus wins. Named head coach of the Sooners in the summer of 2006, Kindler quickly positioned the OU squad among the nation’s elite in her first season in Norman in 2007. That year, the Sooners rattled off a streak of 12 consecutive victories, nine of which came on the road, including an upset of then-No. 6 Nebraska in Lincoln, a feat no OU team had accomplished since 1991. Oklahoma finished second at the Big 12 Championships before heading to the NCAA Central Regional, taking second place before finishing eighth at the NCAA Championships, the highest finish up to that point in program history. “We are dedicated to filling our staff with the best and brightest minds in coaching,” said OU Athletics Director Joe Castiglione upon Kindler’s hiring. “K.J. Kindler brings a reputation of great achievement in all aspects of leading a program.”“She impressed us not only with her accomplishment to this point, but with her lofty goals for the future and her plan for reaching those goals. We are thrilled to work with K.J. and her staff as we pursue championships.” Prior to her hiring at OU, Kindler spent six seasons as the head coach at Iowa State. In her final season in Ames in 2006, Kindler led Iowa State to its third trip to the NCAA Championships and its first appearance in the Super Six team finals. The 24-10 Cyclones produced three All-Americans for a second-consecutive season while posting an undefeated mark at home, a 10-1 dual record and an 8-1 standard in duals against ranked opponents. The team also snapped Nebraska’s 60-meet home winning streak. The 2006 squad won its first Big 12 Championship since 2000, and three Cyclone gymnasts earned either an outright or share of an individual title at the meet. During six seasons at ISU from 2001-06, Kindler coached nine regional event champions, seven NCAA individual championship qualifiers and 13 Big 12 champions. Kindler, an Iowa State graduate, joined the Cyclone staff as an assistant coach in 1992. As an ISU gymnast, Kindler was a three-time MVP for the Cyclones and runner-up in the all-around at the 1992 Big Eight Championships. She was the school’s first individual NCAA Regional qualifier and competed three times in the postseason meet. Kindler hails from Lake Elmo, Minn., and trained under Mary Jane Olsen at Hamline University in St. Paul. In high school, she moved to Connecticut and trained under Frank and Laurie DeFrancesco at Arena Academy in Stamford and Walter Hawkes at Wilton High School. In Connecticut, she won multiple conference and state titles. The eldest of five siblings, Kindler hails from a gymnastics family. One sister, Lori, competed at the University of Minnesota. She and her husband own and operate Flips Gymnastics in the Twin Cities area. Kindler’s nieces, Emma and Lucy Kindler, enjoy recreational gymnastics. Kindler is married to OU assistant coach Lou Ball. The couple has two daughters, Maggie and Adelade.

The team captured a total of 14 titles on vault and 15 on bars under Ball’s leadership and exploded for a program-record 49.700 on bars at TWU. The event was highlighted by a pair of perfect 10.0s from Lehrmann and senior McKenzie Wofford, who became the first Sooners to post perfect marks on the same event in the same meet. Nichols also posted a 10.0 on bars in 2017 and turned in two perfect scores on vault in her freshman campaign. In 2016, Ball coached four All-Americans on both vault and bars as he helped lead the Sooners to their second NCAA title. Earning first-team accolades on vault were Keeley Kmieciak, Hunter Price and Haley Scaman, while Capps snagged second-team honors. Capps was also a first-team honoree on bars along with Wofford and Lehrmann, and AJ Jackson received second-team recognition.

Assistant coach Lou Ball enters his 13th season with Oklahoma women’s gymnastics in 2019 as the primary coach on vault and co-coach on uneven bars. The 2010 National Assistant Coach of the Year along with fellow OU assistant coach Tom Haley, Ball has aided OU to eight top-three finishes at the NCAA Championships in 2010, 2011, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018, including Oklahoma’s first-ever NCAA championship effort in 2014 and second and third title runs in 2016 and 2017, respectively.

The Sooners twice set the then-program-best mark on bars (49.675) in 2016, doing so against Arizona and at the Big 12 Championship, fueled by Kmieciak’s perfect 10 on the apparatus, just the second in the history of the conference meet. Ball coached three Big 12 Champions (Kmieciak and Jackson on vault, Kmieciak on bars) and two NCAA Iowa City Regional Champions (Capps on vault, Wofford on bars). Ball’s coaching efforts led Oklahoma to strong performances throughout the 2015 season on both vault and uneven bars. OU captured 11 team titles on vault and 13 on bars while totaling 32 individual event titles combined on the two events. On vault, Ball guided an impressive four Sooners to All-America accolades, including first-team honors for Scaman and Jackson. Scaman posted a 10.0 on vault under Ball’s coaching during the regular season and finished third nationally on the event at NCAA event finals. Ball also guided Jackson to the Big 12 and NCAA Norman Regional individual titles on vault. Several Sooners also shone on uneven bars under Ball’s guidance in 2015, including first-team AllAmericans Brenna Dowell, Kmieciak and Wofford. Wofford had a dominant season, earning eight individual titles while finishing fourth nationally on bars at NCAA event finals. Dowell earned the nation’s first 10.0 on bars in January and Kmieciak enjoyed a stellar championship showing on the event as well. Ball also led Rebecca Clark to a share of the Big 12 title on uneven bars.

OU has garnered 48 All-America honors on bars and vault under Ball’s leadership, including 2017 Co-Bars National Champions, Nicole Lehrmann and Maggie Nichols, 2018 Co-Vault National Champion Brenna Dowell and 2018 Co-Bars National Champion Nichols.

JAMES GALLOGLY

14th PRESIDENT - UNIVERSITY OF OKLAHOMA The University of Oklahoma Board of Regents announced on March 26 the selection of James L. “Jim” Gallogly, 65, a leading American business executive and OU alumnus, as the University’s 14th president. Gallogly succeeded David L. Boren, who retired on June 30. “Jim Gallogly is a world-class, in-demand transformative leader, and we’re honored to have him as our new president,” said Clayton I. Bennett, chairman of OU’s Board of Regents. “Throughout his career, he’s been incredibly successful. He is a builder known for having strategic vision, for managing large and complex organizations, and for mentoring and inspiring great teams to achieve results — leadership qualities we value for the future. Jim’s skill set is a perfect match for this unique time in our history.” “I’m here because I love the University of Oklahoma,” said President Gallogly. “It’s a privilege to be part of the University, and I will work tirelessly with our outstanding students, faculty and administration as we achieve new standards of academic excellence.” Boren, who was among America’s longest-serving university presidents, stepped down after leading OU for 23 years. His retirement came after completing 51 years of public service in the Oklahoma Legislature, as governor of Oklahoma, U.S. senator and OU’s president. Under Boren’s leadership, the University emerged as a “pacesetter university in American public higher education,” with 31 major new programs initiated during his tenure. “I have known Jim Gallogly for many years,” said Boren. “He is a person of exceptional ability and has been a committed supporter of the University. He truly loves the University and our students. He and his wife Janet will be worthy leaders of our University family. Molly and I both wish them well and will do all that we can to help them and the University that means so much to all of us.” Bennett added that Gallogly impressed the Board of Regents as a charismatic and inspirational leader. “It’s impressive to know that many leaders he’s mentored and developed during his career have ascended to become CEOs,” Bennett said. “He’ll lead from the front, working with teams at every level and teaching in the classroom as he takes on his next major career challenge. While Jim may not come from the academy, we know he’ll draw skillfully on OU’s world-class faculty, who will be critical in assisting him during this transition.” Bennett said OU’s search process was led by a recognized national search firm and a representative search committee composed of 17 faculty, students, staff professionals and community members. David Rainbolt and Dr. Gregg A. Garn, Dean of the Jeannine

Rainbolt College of Education, served as chair and vice-chair, respectively, of the search. The committee initiated its work on Nov. 13, 2017. It met six times, reviewed a broad pool of applicants and ultimately selected 13 candidates for interviews. After robust debate, the committee presented seven finalists for the Board of Regents to review. The board conducted in-depth interviews with all seven candidates who were a mix of traditional and non-traditional candidates, both internal and external to the University. Following this thorough evaluation process, Regents unanimously selected Gallogly to become president. Gallogly was former chairman and chief executive officer of LyondellBasell, a company he joined while it was in Chapter 11 bankruptcy. He and his team guided the company out of bankruptcy in record time and successfully repositioned it as one of the world’s largest petrochemical, polymers and refining companies, with 2014 revenues of $45.6 billion and earnings of $4.1 billion (the year preceding his retirement). In addition to LyondellBasell, Gallogly also served for 29 years in executive roles with ConocoPhillips, Chevron Phillips Chemical Company and Phillips Petroleum Company, beginning his career in the energy business in northeast Oklahoma with Phillips in 1980. Prior to that, Gallogly practiced law with a private firm in Denver, Colo. Gallogly received a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs, Colo., in 1974 and a J.D. degree from the OU College of Law in 1977. Gallogly also completed the Advanced Executive Program at the J.L. Kellogg Graduate School of Management at Northwestern University in 1998. He is a member of the OU Gallogly College of Engineering Board of Visitors and the University of Colorado Engineering Advisory Council, as well as an executive committee member of the MD Anderson Cancer Center Board of Visitors in Houston, Texas. Healthcare industry experience he’s gained through the private sector and his board service to the MD Anderson Cancer Center will be integral to his work as president with OU’s Health Sciences Center. Gallogly was born in St. John’s, Newfoundland, on Sept. 1, 1952. He is one of 10 children of Tom and Margery Gallogly. He and his wife, Janet, have been married 43 years and have three daughters (Kelly Gray, Kasey DeLuke and Kim Gallogly), as well as four grandchildren (Ella and Vivian Gray, and Tony and Benny DeLuke).

JOE CASTIGLIONE V I C E P R E S I D E N T F O R I N T E R C O L L E G I AT E AT H L E T I C P R O G R A M S A N D D I R E C TO R O F AT H L E T I C S

When Joe Castiglione was hired to be director of athletics for the University of Oklahoma, he knew all about the success that was part of OU’s history. He also knew that the OU program was seeking stability and direction. In his 20 years at Oklahoma, he has led the efforts that have produced 18 national championships, nearly half of the all-time total. He has celebrated 88 conference titles, record GPAs and graduation rates. The success enjoyed in his tenure has ensured the Sooner legacy will continue to grow. Castiglione inherited one of the most storied programs in college athletics and he went to work by creating a positive culture that emphasized core values, a dynamic mission and a collaborative spirit. The goal has been to create the “destination of choice” and a world-class experience for student-athlete development. The 2017-18 school year yielded another accomplished campaign in school history with one national championship after a school record of four the previous year. That school record in 2016-17, combined with three national titles in 2015-16, gave OU a nation-leading seven in two years. Seventeen of 21 sports sent the full team or individuals to an NCAA championship. Men’s gymnastics won its fourth consecutive national title and the women’s gymnastics team finished as the NCAA runner-up by the slimmest of margins. The football team finished third while the Sooner softball team also finished fifth. The men’s golf team added a fifth-place finish. The title won by the men’s gymnastics team continued a streak of at least one national title for a sixth consecutive year. The Learfield Director’s Cup recognizes overall program excellence. Evidence of OU’s commitment to program excellence since Castiglione’s arrival is that in 17 of his 20 years, the Sooners have ranked in the top 25. As dominant as the commitment to excellence in competition is, an even more impressive set of numbers was being posted in the classroom. Sooner student-athletes had a 13th consecutive semester of a cumulative GPA at 3.0 or higher at the close of the academic year. The 3.13 cumulative GPA for the spring 2018 semester was a record for OU. That productivity in the classroom has translated into an 85-percent graduation rate for the Sooners. A place where competitive dreams come true and academic excellence are the expectations, not the exceptions, is part of a values-focused culture driven at OU by Castiglione with the full support of OU’s Board of Regents and University administration. Upon his arrival, the 11th and second longest serving director of athletics at OU, Castiglione made a number of changes, and, in the process, created a team of administrators, 10 of whom have gone on to other Division I athletics director posts, coaches and support staff who pursue and achieve lofty goals under the banner of ethical integrity. That extends into the department’s finances. OU Athletics, one of the

few remaining self-sustaining departments nationally, has closed the books in the black each of the last 20 years.Castiglione’s responsible approach has benefitted the general campus, as well. Through direct and indirect support, the athletics department provides more than $9 million annually to OU’s academics budget. It also established an endowment at Bizzell Library and partnered with the president’s office to eliminate the admission fee at OU’s internationally known Fred Jones Jr. Museum of Art. Facility improvement and construction of athletics facilities have been carried out at a record pace and Castiglione takes pride in the fact that those improvements have been funded with private donations. Gaylord Family Oklahoma Memorial Stadium underwent a $160 million renovation that included filling in the bowl and creating new seating options for Sooner fans and new team facilities, including locker room, training room, strength and training center and offices. Other improvements are planned throughout the historic facility in the Stadium Master Plan that includes multiple phases. A $7 million dollar improvement to the men’s and women’s basketball facilities at Lloyd Noble Center has been completed and a $22 million plan to build a new softball stadium was recently approved. A master plan for $10 million in renovations at baseball is also on the books. These projects follow the completion of the $75 million Headington Hall, which provides housing for the general student population as well as student-athletes. The state-of-the-art building, which has won the President’s Trophy as the outstanding housing unit four of the last five years, opened in August 2013 and makes OU the leader in providing an engaging community living option for OU students. Castiglione is quick to give full credit to the student-athletes and coaches, the staff, the OU Board of Regents, University administration, the donors and the fans for the success experienced during his tenure. It’s a team approach that he has embraced throughout his successful career in athletics. In recognition of the many achievements of his OU tenure, Castiglione was named Co-National Athletic Director of the Year in May 2018 by Sports Business Journal. He had been a finalist for that award in 2016 and also had won the award in May 2009. A survey conducted by Sports Illustrated in the summer of 2017 named him the best athletics director in the country. He received the 2018 Katha Quinn Award from the U.S. Basketball Writers of America for exceptional service to the media. He will be inducted into the Oklahoma Sports Hall of Fame as a member of the Class of 2018. The National Football Foundation and College Hall of Fame named him the 2013 recipient of the John L. Toner Award. In April 2014, Castiglione received the Abe Lemons/ Paul Hansen Award for Sports Excellence from Oklahoma City University. His peers have honored him as well. In November 2012, the United States Sports Academy named him the winner of the Carl Maddox Sports Management Award. In October 2004, the Bobby Dodd Foundation named him Athletics Director of the Year. In 2003, he was inducted into the National Association of Collegiate Marketing Administrators Hall of Fame. In June 2001, he received the General Robert R. Neyland Athletic

OKLAHOMA WOMEN’S GYMNASTICS • 2014, 2016, 2017 NATIONAL CHAMPIONS

Director Award for lifetime achievement from the All-American Football Foundation. The National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA) named him Central Region AD of the Year in 2000. The achievement that may bring him the most pride came in May 2007 when he completed a master’s of education degree from OU. Subsequently, he became an adjunct professor in the Jeannine Rainbolt College of Education, teaching graduate classes in Marketing, Development and Leadership in Higher Education. He serves on the College’s Board of Advocates. He was recently recognized for his distinguished service by OU’s College of Arts & Sciences. Castiglione was instrumental in the athletics department’s major campaign, Great Expectations: The Campaign for Sooner Sports. The then largest fund-raising effort in OU athletics history included projects that impacted each of OU’s 21 sports and has become a national model for intercollegiate athletics. The campaign ended three years later with more than $125 million raised and that figure has now grown to over $500 million as funds continue to be raised for facility improvements and scholarship endowments. Hired on April 30, 1998, Castiglione joined the Sooner family after serving as athletics director at Missouri. In his 17-year career with the Tigers, Castiglione, who was named MU athletics director on Dec. 15, 1993, was credited with rebuilding sports programs, hiring outstanding coaches, implementing an innovative master plan for facilities, inspiring recordsetting increases in fund-raising and balancing the budget in each of his five years as AD. A 1979 Maryland graduate, Castiglione received the University’s Distinguished Alumnus Award in April 2007 and he was inducted into the State of Missouri’s Sports Hall of Fame in November 2015. His career journey began as the sports promotions director at Rice. He then worked a year as director of athletic fund-raising at Georgetown before being hired in 1981 at Missouri as director of communications and marketing. He will mark his 26th year of serving student-athletes as an athletics director at two different institutions in the 2018-19 academic year.

His commitment to the success of student-athletes has gone beyond the Norman campus and he has served at the national and conference level. He was named to the College Football Playoff Committee in January 2018, making him the only person to serve on that committee as well as the men’s basketball and baseball committees. He is currently serving on the NCAA’s Board of Governor’s Commission to Combat Sexual Violence on Campus. He served as chairman of the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Committee for the 2015-16 academic year. He served a fouryear term on the NCAA Championship/Competition Cabinet and the NCAA Baseball Committee. He also chaired the NCAA’s Football Academic Progress Rate (APR) Working Group and completed service on the NCAA Working Group on Collegiate Model-Rules Committee. He also serves on the Gatorade Collegiate Advisory Board and the National Football Foundation and College Football Hall of Fame Board of Directors. He served three terms as the chair of the Big 12 Board of Athletics Directors and is a past president of both the Division I-A Athletic Directors Association and NACDA. He was also a member on the NCAA Diversity Leadership Strategic Planning Committee, the NCAA Division I Women’s Basketball Discussion Group, the United States Olympic Committee Athlete Career and Education Strategic Working Group and the NCAA Football Issues Committee, which he chaired. In November 2011, his hometown recognized him by selecting him for the Broward County (Fla.) Sports Hall of Fame. His involvement in the local community has led to service with civic clubs, churches and charities, including the United Way of Norman, recently serving his third term as OU’s campus co-chair, which resulted in the highest recorded contributions ever by faculty, staff and students to the United Way of Norman’s annual campaign. He encourages studentathletes and athletics staff to participate in those efforts as well. A native of Fort Lauderdale, Fla., Castiglione is married to the former Kristen Bartel, a 1990 graduate of the University of Missouri. They are the parents of two sons, Joseph, Jr., who is a redshirt junior at OU, and Jonathan, who is a senior in high school.

Oklahoma has soared to new heights under head coach K.J. Kindler, building on the incredible tradition of Sooner gymnastics. OU has reached the postseason every year since 1998 and has advanced to the NCAA Championships each season since 2004, including all 12 years under Kindler. In 2014, Kindler led OU to the ultimate achievement in NCAA gymnastics: its first-ever NCAA title. She then coached the Sooners to the height of the collegiate gymnastics world again in 2016 and 2017. Since taking the helm at OU, Kindler has led Oklahoma to eight Super Six appearances. OU has never placed lower than third in the final round of NCAA competition and owns five top-two NCAA finishes in the past six seasons alone. Four different Sooners have earned individual national championships since Kindler’s arrival. Taylor Spears broke a 26-year drought, earning the top spot on beam in 2014. 2017 saw Nicole Lehrmann and Maggie Nichols earn co-national champion honors on bars, while Nichols and Brenna Dowell combined for four titles in 2018. Under Kindler, seven individual national titles have been won. At the regional level, OU has been dominant under Kindler. The Sooners have captured nine consecutive NCAA regional titles and have not finished lower than second since 2003.

S I M P LY M AG I C April 19 was a night filled with soul and Sooner Magic in Birmingham, Ala., aptly dubbed “The Magic City.” Oklahoma hit a then-best score in NCAA Championships history at the 2014 Super Six team finals, earning a 198.175 to capture conational championship honors alongside the Florida Gators. The Sooners set program records at an NCAA Championship on every event, scoring no lower than a 49.500 on any apparatus and posting 17 individual scores of 9.9 or higher. It was a year made to re-write the record books. Oklahoma’s team score of 198.175 in the Super Six finals was a new NCAA Championship record, while its 198.000 at the 2014 Big 12 Championship was a conference championship record mark. OU set new program records on vault (49.700) and bars (49.575) while posting four overall team scores, four vault scores, two bars scores, two beam scores and two floor scores that rank in the top five team marks all-time at Oklahoma. “Our team was just in a magical place from the second we got here tonight. We worked through practice, we worked through yesterday’s meet, but today we didn’t work at all. There was very little error from our team. That’s the best we can do. We knew coming in that we could do it. I don’t think anyone else really gave us a chance. But, I think that we knew we could do it. Now the dream is a reality.” - head coach K.J. Kindler

M A D E I T CO U N T

The motto for the 2016 Oklahoma squad all season was to make it count. On the sport’s biggest stage, the Sooners did just that. With a 197.6750, Oklahoma secured the 2016 NCAA Championship. The NCAA title was their second all-time, with the first coming in 2014. The Super Six appearance was OU’s sixth in the last seven seasons and in each of those, OU finished within the top three nationally. With the meet close entering the final rotation, Oklahoma rose to the occasion, using a little bit of Sooner Magic to turn in a 49.5750 on floor. The clinching routine came from sophomore AJ Jackson in the No. 5 spot, whose 9.9125 pushed the Sooners to the top of the leaderboard. The Sooners entered the postseason with “Make it Count” in mind, striving to be push themselves and be their best each and every meet. This paid off in the form of their NCAA title, capping a season in which the Sooners posted a 381-0 overall record, with their lone loss coming in their season opener. Other highlights included nine Sooners earning a program-record 18 All-America honors, an unprecedented fifth straight Big 12 title and seventh consecutive regional crown. “What do you say? One of the girls this morning, when she woke up, tweeted, ‘It felt like Christmas Eve last night—I couldn’t go to bed anticipating today.’ It turns out that’s exactly what it was. Christmas Day is always a wonderful day when you’re a kid. Today was just an amazing and wonderful day for these ladies and our entire team. They had to fight for it. We learned a lot last year, I think, and they applied it today.” - head coach K.J. Kindler

M A K E T H AT T H R E E The biggest stage in the sport couldn’t intimidate the Sooners as they soared to an unprecedented 198.3875, setting the NCAA record for a team score in a Super Six– and securing their second-straight and third overall national championship in 2017. The Super Six appearance was the seventh in the last eight seasons and in each of those, the Sooners finished within the top three nationally. OU rolled from the beginning with a 49.5875 on bars and a 49.7000 on beam. The Sooners posted a perfect 33-0 record, the first undefeated season in program history. Perfection doesn’t come easy, and the 2017 Sooners used heart and grit to make history as the first Sooner squad to post an undefeated season. With its second-straight national championship and third in the last four years, a sixth-straight Big 12 Championship, eighth-straight regional title, two individual national champions, and 12 All-America honors, the 2017 squad cemented itself in history as one of the most prolific teams the program has ever seen. “It felt crazy, really. I almost felt like I wasn’t here—it was that amazing. To have that kind of a performance from a coaching standpoint, wow. As an athlete, to be in that state of mind and to get your body to do what they got their bodies to do tonight over and over and over, performance after performance—I don’t think you see that very often, and I don’t know if we’ve done it at the national championship before the way we did tonight. It’s just a really special night.” - head coach K.J. Kindler

With just four individual national titles before 2014, all won by Kelly Garrison in 1987 and 1988, the athletes to come through the OU gymnastics program in the last few years have begun cementing themselves on the top of the podium. Taylor Spears broke a 26year drought to win the national title on beam in 2014 and has combined with three other Sooners to earn seven individual national titles in the last five years. Maggie Nichols is currently tied with Garrison with four individual titles, including three at the 2018 NCAA Championships. Nichols’ victory on floor and Brenna Dowell’s first-place mark on vault gave Oklahoma an individual on all four events and the all-around, one of just eight programs to accomplish the feat.

KELLY GARRISON

1987 NCAA All-Around Champion 1988 NCAA All-Around Champion 1988 NCAA Uneven Bars Champion 1988 NCAA Balance Beam Champion Kelly Garrison certainly made the most of her two seasons with the Sooners, racking up four NCAA individual titles en route to seven All-America honors. The Altus, Okla., native dominated the 1987 season like few collegiate gymnasts have ever done, winning the NCAA all-around title with a record score of 39.150, securing event wins on every apparatus at the Big Eight Championship, winning the all-around crown at 17 of 18 dual meets and setting three NCAA records in the process. Garrison qualfied for the event finals in three of four events at the 1987 NCAA Championships, but had to withdraw from vault and floor exercise due to an ankle injury. Throughout the 1987 campaign, Garrison topped the previous NCAA all-around record (38.85), held by Megan Marsden (Utah) and Elfi Schlegel (Florida), seven times. Garrison followed up her spectacular season by sweeping all five individual titles at the Big Eight Championship for the second straight season. She then earned All-America status in every category possible at the 1988 NCAA Championships, securing three national titles in the process.

TAYLOR SPEARS

2014 NCAA Balance Beam Champion Taylor Spears rose to incredible heights throughout her career at Oklahoma, culminating in a spot on the podium that no Sooner had held for 26 years. Spears became Oklahoma’s first NCAA Champion since 1987 as a senior, winning the national title on beam with a 9.925 at individual event finals. An All-Big 12 pick on beam her freshman year, Spears contributed primarily as a three-event specialist in her first year at OU. Despite not competing on vault as a freshman. Spears leapt headfirst into the all-around for Oklahoma as a sophomore, earning her second-career All-Big 12 award on beam. Spears’ breakout season came in 2013 as the junior rose to become one of the nation’s top all-arounders. The Big 12 Gymnast of the Year, Spears won her first two career All-America honors on bars and in the all-around at the NCAA Championships. She was also the only gymnast in the nation to win the all-around title at both the conference and regional level. Spears capped her stellar ascent in style as a senior, earning first-team All-America honors on both bars and beam and capturing the NCAA beam title. She was also a finalist for the prestigious AAI Award, recognizing the nation’s top female senior gymnast.

NICOLE LEHRMANN 2017 NCAA Uneven Bars Champion

One of the steadiest competitors on the unveven bars, Nicole Lehrmann wasn’t a name most would have standing on the top of the podium at the 2017 NCAA Championships. Though consistent throughout the year, hitting 100 percent of her routines and putting up a perfect score, Lehrmann ranked outside the top 10 at the end of the season, coming in 12th with an RQS of 9.910. Her time to shine would come during the first semifinal of the 2017 NCAA Championships as the sophomore earned a 9.950 on the uneven bars to secure just the third individual national championship for the Sooners. Lehrmann continued her success in the 2018 season, racking up a streak of 17 straight meets with a score of at least 9.9 on the event and placing third at the 2018 NCAA Championships.

MAGGIE NICHOLS

2017 NCAA Uneven Bars Champion 2018 NCAA All-Around Champion 2018 NCAA Uneven Bar Champion 2018 NCAA Floor Exercise Champion Maggie Nichols has been an unstoppable force since arriving at Oklahoma in 2017. She took the college gymnastics world by storm as a freshman and earned her first individual national championship with a 9.950 on the uneven bars at the 2017 NCAA Championships. Nichols would be even better in 2018, earning the all-around title and bringing home an OU-record three individual titles in one season. Nichols tied the NCAA Championships all-around record with a 39.825 to secure the top spot on the podium. With a perfect 10 on bars to become the first gymnast to ever complete two “Gym Slams”, Nichols also picked up her second career title on uneven bars. She wrapped up her incredible night with a 9.9625 on floor to take home her third title of the night an fourth of her career. Nichols is now tied with OU legend Kelly Garrison with with four individual national titles.

BRENNA DOWELL 2018 NCAA Vault Champion

Brenna Dowell is arguably one of the most powerful gymnasts in the NCAA. From her incredible tumbling on floor to her impressive vaults, Dowell has shined throughout her collegiate career. After finishing just shy of the top of the podium in 2015 with a runner-up finish on floor, Dowell would find herself in the top spot on a different event three years later. During the 2018 season, Dowell had one of the most powerful Yurchenko 1.5s, earning her first career perfect 10 on the event at UCLA on Feb. 4. She spent most of the year ranked in the top five on the event, finishing the regular season ranked third in the country. During Semifinal II of the NCAA Championships Dowell had a near perfect vault, earning a 9.9375 to win the vault title. Dowell was just the fifth Sooner to earn an individual crown and is one of three gymnasts currently on the Sooners roster with at least one individual championship (Nicole Lehrmann, Maggie Nichols).

Best of the Best Since Amy Priest earned the first All-American distinction at OU in 1985, 132 All-Americans have competed for the Crimson and Cream. The most decorated All-American in OU history is 2017 graduate, Chayse Capps. Capps earned at least two honors in each of her last three seasons, finishing her illustrious career with 11 total honors. In 2018, Maggie Nichols joined Kelly Garrison and Capps as the only Sooners to earn five All-America honors in one season. Nichols now has eight career All-America honors, good for third all-time in OU history.
