2010 OUTLOOK EAGLES RETURN 12 LETTERMEN With the loss of only three letterwinners, Boston College returns the bulk of its squad from a year ago. The 24-man roster features 12 returning lettermen – one senior, three juniors and eight sophomores. Senior Karl Reddick and juniors Patrick Chin, Conor Fitzpatrick and Edvin Worley represent the returning upperclassmen that earned letters last fall. The roster also features eight sophomores – Kyle Bekker, Stefan Carter, Sacir Hot, Justin Luthy, Kevin Mejia, Charlie Rugg and Isaac Taylor – who earned varsity letters as freshman in 2009. The Eagles welcome eight freshmen in 2010.

LUTHY STELLAR IN NET AS A FRESHMAN Justin Luthy, a 6-foot, 165-pound product of Dublin, Ohio, returns for his sophomore campaign after earning All-Conference second-team accolades as well as All-ACC Freshmen Team honors last fall. The Eagle incumbent in net started 21 games and went 13-8-0 with a 0.83 goals against average and a .815 save percentage and nine shutouts in his first collegiate season. In seven conference games, he went 5-2-0 with a 0.70 GAA and a .878 save percentage. Senior Ayotunde Ogunbiyi provides Kelly and his staff with a more-than-adequate backup. A 6-foot-3, 220-pound product of Gwynedd, Pa., Ogunbiyi is a member of the Ocean City Barons of the Premier Development League where he earned PDL All-Conference honors in 2009 after he went 5-4-2 in the regular season and registered a 0.76 goals against average and five shutouts. Newcomer John Bunkall, a Pasadena, Calif., resident who twice earned All-Mission League first-team honors at Loyola high school, will also compete for playing time.

BACKLINE BACK, DEPTH ADDED, AGER SET FOR DEBUT Boston College’s defense is perhaps the deepest of any position for the Eagles in 2010. Of the 24 players on the roster, 14 are listed as a defender. Patrick Chin leads all returnees with 29 appearances entering his junior season. Sophomore Sacir Hot returns to anchor one of the center back positions having recently participated in the U.S. U-20 Men’s National team training camp later earning the 2010 Milk Cup title in Northern Ireland in late July. A 6-foot-1, 180-pound product of Fair Lawn, N.J., Hot played in 15 games as a freshman, missing seven matches because of injuries. Versatile sophomore Kevin Mejia, a 6-foot-1, 175-pound product of Pasadena, Calif., who saw action in all 23 games last fall, provides the team with another solid sophomore along the backline. Stefan Carter, also a sophomore, saw consistent action at one of the center back positions as a freshman. The 5-foot-11, 175-pound defender registered 15 starts last fall, missing seven matches because of injuries. Second-semester freshman Chris Ager, a 6-foot, 171-pound product of Gjettum, Norway who played his club soccer for the Stabaek Football Club, is set to make his Eagle debut along the BC backline in 2010. Ager, the 2010 recipient of the prestigious Thomas McElroy scholarship, will serve as one of two captains. Myles Gerraty returns as a senior and will provide depth at the position. Five freshmen – Gregg Bryer, Henry Bunkall, Jamie Doherty, Ryan Dunn and Cameron Stoker – are all first-year enrollees who will vie for playing time to bolster the defense.

REDDICK ANCHORS YOUNG YET TESTED MIDFIELD

2009 OUTLOOK

Karl Reddick returns for his senior campaign to anchor the defensive midfield for the Eagles. He leads all Boston College players with 63 career games played and 57 starts in the midfield. Stalwart Conor Fitzpatrick of Coventry, Conn., returns having started 43 matches in his first two seasons at The Heights. The versatile junior started all 21 games in the center midfield as a freshman and transitioned to the backline as a sophomore. Kyle Bekker, Colin Murphy and Isaac Taylor, each part of Kelly’s eightmember stellar sophomore class, were impact players in their freshman campaigns.

Bekker, an Oakville, Ontario, native, started all 23 matches last fall and earned All-ACC Freshman Team accolades. Murphy, a resident of Onehunga, New Zealand, recorded 20 starts in the midfield as a freshman. He totaled eight points – two goals and four assists – and will also provide Kelly with further options on defense. Taylor saw action in 20 games in 2010. A native of Ashton, Md., he scored one of the more memorable goals last fall, snapping a 1-1 tie in the 103rd minute to lift the Eagles to the win over Dartmouth in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. Senior Dave Dale, an Eagen, Minn., resident, is in his third collegiate season and saw action in four games last fall.

Newcomer Amit Aburmad from Zofim, Israel is also expected to see significant action in the midfield. Aburmad is a junior who transferred from Mercer County Community College where he earned first-team All-America honors. Nico Capetola, a freshman from Manhasset, N.Y., is an All-State midfielder who will add further depth at the position.

WORLEY, RUGG UP TOP Two players – Edvin Worley and Charlie Rugg – are Boston College’s top returning scorers. Worley leads all players with 30 career points – 10 goals and 10 assists. He is back for his junior campaign. Rugg, a sophomore, earned All-ACC Freshman Team honors in 2009 after he tallied a team-high 21 points – seven goals and seven assists, including seven points – three goals and one assist – in eight ACC contests. Kevin Mejia adds options and depth at the position. Mejia scored five goals as a freshman, including four in league action, to finished tied with for second on the team.

REDDICK & AGER NAMED TEAM CAPTAINS The Eagles selected senior midfielder Karl Reddick and freshman defender Chris Ager as captains for the 2010 season. Reddick was tabbed captain for the second straight year.

TOM McELROY AWARD AN EAGLE FOR ALL-TIME Tom McElroy was a very special young man. He came to the Heights from Boston College High, where he was an All-Conference midfielder. In the fall of his freshman year, Tom T elected not to try out for the squad. His determination to focus on his studies exclusively, lasted less than a semester. He joined the team for the indoor soccer program that winter.

The culmination of the indoor season was the prestigious UConn tournament that attracted some 30 teams. BC was to participate, but almost withdrew because it lost its goalkeepers to injuries and exams. Into the breach stepped Tom. T Playing a totally unfamiliar position, the converted midfielder led the Eagles to a surprising fourth place finish, and was named the all-tournament goalkeeper. Tom’s T Tom’s collegiate soccer career had begun. Tom T was a tireless worker, willing to Tom make any sacrifice to become a top flight collegiate goaltender. His work ethic was without parallel, and by his senior year, 1979, he was a top college keeper, and a definite pro prospect.

In 1979 Boston College upgraded its schedule to include national powers St. Louis and San Francisco. St. Louis bested the Eagles, 2-0, but co-captain McElroy stopped three breakaways. San Francisco, defending NCAA champs, couldn’t get the ball past him. In an early season snowstorm, the teams battled to a 0-0 tie, as Tom T robbed four USF players of breakaway goals. “By 1979, he was the best I’d ever seen against the breakaway,” commented Ben Brewster, BC’s soccer coach.

In January of his senior year, Tom T and his family learned that he was suffering suf from cancer. Treatments reatments began, and things looked hopeful for awhile. Because he had only played three years of varsity soccer, Tom Tom decided to return the next fall and play a final varsity season. Although he wasn’t as physically strong as before, and had to miss some games for treatments or recuperation, Tom T let on to no one. Only Coach Brewster and (Presented to the Boston College junior men’s Bill Flynn, BC’s Athletic Director, knew of his illness. Tom T played half the games in a successful 15-3-3 season.

He was the 1985 David Beltramini first one at practice. If something had to be done he was always there. If you needed a smiling face to drop by, by 1986 Scott Jones he invariably showed up. He was just a fabulous young man”, commented Ben Brewster. “Every time we ran a 1987 Ara Barsamian clinic for a youth group, the kids would flock to him. They really loved him. He was a great teacher with incred-1988 Stephen McNear 1989 Stuart Tallmadge ible patience”, noted a former teammate. Another teammate noted “….Hardly a day in my life goes by without 1990 Andrew Sage some thought of Boston College; and I often remember fondly my friendship both on and off of the field with Tom. 1991 Brendan McCarthy In my mind, his memory is a challenge, not just to the recipients of the Scholarship, but to each of us as Boston 1992 Brian Boussy College Alumni…. – to push ourselves a little harder – to be the best that we can be at work or play, or in our 1993 Steve Johnson 1994 Carlos Casas personal lives. Tom’s T Tom’s zest for life is still with us who were fortunate to know him…….” When Tom T completed 1995 Marc Bala his career, he had set Boston College soccer soccer records for most games played (43), most shutouts in a season 1996 Daryl Gioffre (10) and career (20), and lowest goals against average in a career (1.05).

2001 Chris Cleary In September, 2000, almost 20 years after Tom T died, the McElroy family received this note from another of 2002 Casey Schmidt Tom’s teammates, “….I often think of Tom’s T passing in the summer between my sophomore and junior years at 2003 Paul Chase BC. My clearest memory of Tom T off of the soccer field is the way he befriended the freshman players on the soccer 2004 Bill Arnault 2005 Sam Brill team each year. He always reached out to the new guys in 2006 Issey Maholo a way that none of the other upper-classmen did….”

2007 Chris Brown The McElroy family established the Tom T McElroy Memorial Scholarship on November 16, 1983, with an 2008 Stephen Hepburn initial balance of $3,095, representing contributions to Boston College in Tom’s T memory. In 2005, it became the 2009 Michael Lawless 2010 Chris Ager first athletic memorial scholarship at BC to exceed $1m, and continues to be the number one athletic memorial scholarship. From inception through the end of the 2009-2010 academic year, 93 student-athletes have received aid totaling $840,967. Chris Ager, from Gjettum, Norway, a second-semester freshman in the College of Arts & Sciences, is the 2010 soccer player who best demonstrates the qualities and attributes we remember so well in Tom. T All recipients, including Chris, exhibit Tom’s T enthusiasm for soccer and dedication to excellence.

THE ACC THE TRADITION Consistency. It is the mark of true excellence in any endeavor.

However, in today’s intercollegiate athletics, competition has become so balanced and so competitive that it is virtually impossible to maintain a high level of consistency.

Yet the Atlantic Coast Conference has defied the odds.

Now in its 58th year of competition, the ACC has long enjoyed the reputation as one of the strongest and most competitive intercollegiate conferences in the nation. And that is not mere conjecture, the numbers support it.

Since its inception in 1953, ACC schools have captured 120 national championships, including 64 in women’s competition and 56 in men’s. In addition, NCAA individual titles have gone to ACC student-athletes 130 times in men’s competition and 91 times in women’s action.

Since 1953, when the league adopted men’s soccer and a tradition of excellence was established, the ACC has continued to soar to new heights. The 2009 season saw the ACC collect its 14th Men’s Soccer National Championship as the Virginia Cavaliers won the national crown, their sixth NCAA title and first since 1994. The squad won following a 3-2 penalty kick shootout to defeat top-ranked Akron following a 0-0 draw in the championship final at WakeMed Soccer Park in Cary, N.C. The Cavaliers (19-3-3) ended the season on a 16-game unbeaten streak. In addition, ACC teams finished 76-20-7 against non-conference opposition during the 2009 season, a winning percentage of .772, and six of the league nine men’s soccer programs were ranked in the RPI Top 30, topping all other conferences in the country.

The league’s programs continue to rank among the best in the country in terms of the NCAA Tournament, having made 163 appearances that include 224 victories in the last 51 years, earning 14 national crowns and making 21 appearances in the title contest. The 2009 season also marked the ninth-consecutive year at least one team from the ACC was represented in the College Cup and sixth-consecutive that the ACC sent at least two teams to the NCAA Semifinals.

The ACC led all conferences with seven teams selected to the 2009 NCAA Tournament Field of 48, while four of the seven ACC teams receiving a bid earned a top-16 national seed, including three of the top five spots. The league eventually owned 75 percent (three-of-four) College Cup teams (North Carolina, Virginia and Wake Forest), and finished with an impressive 15-21 record against non-conference opponents in this year’s NCAA Tournament. Virginia (2), Wake Forest (3), North Carolina (5) and NC State (15) earned byes, while Boston College, Duke and Maryland received at-large invites. ACC Tournament Champion and eventual NCAA Tournament Champion Virginia made its 31st NCAA appearance and 29th straight, the nation’s longest active streak and an ACC record that dates back to 1981. Since seeding began in 1994, the ACC has been awarded the top seed 10 of the possible 16 years. In 2005, the ACC set a conference record with eight teams selected to the NCAA Men’s Soccer Championship field, while 2006 and 2009 saw seven selected.

Wake Forest and North Carolina shared the 2009 Atlantic Coast Conference regular-season crown, while Wake Forest earned the top seed in the ACC Tournament after following ACC tie-breaker procedures. The Demon Deacons also picked up a league-high four first-team selections, just one shy of the school’s 2008 first-team total and led the league with three of the four 2009 ACC postseason individual awards. Yet the ACC crown

56

went to Virginia as the Cavs recorded their eighth-consecutive shutout, blanking NC State, 1-0, to win the 2009 ACC Men’s Soccer Championship at WakeMed Soccer Park.

Overall, the ACC has placed 136 players on All-America lists, totaling 260 All-America accolades, 18 National Player of the Year and six National Rookie of the Year honors.

NEWTON CAMPUS COMPLEX Nestled behind the law school on Boston College’s Newton Campus is one of nation’s elite soccer facilities.

Completely updated in 2008, the Newton Campus Soccer Complex features a newly installed Polytan artificial playing surface.

Polytan surfaces are used at the World Cup Stadium in Stuttgart, Germany, the Olympic Stadium in Munich, the Football Academy FC Bayern, the Stadium La Maladiere in Switzerland and Warsteiner Stadium, host of the 2006 World Cup. With the addition of the Polytan artificial playing surface, coupled with offseason updates that include permanent team benches canopied to guard against the elements and a 30-seat, enclosed press box complete with a roof-deck video-filming area, Boston College is proud to boast a brand new state-of-the-art facility.

The artificial playing surface made its regular-season debut on Aug. 29, 2008 against Boston University.

Overall, the field is entering its ninth year in existence. It spent the first eight seasons as a natural grass pitch before switching to the artificial turf this past year. Lights were added to the field prior to the 2003 campaign.

With its close proximity to the freshmen dorms, the “Superfans,” BC’s collective student fan base, frequent games to provide a boisterous and exciting atmosphere. Decked in bright gold t-shirts, Superfans, friends and family alike sit near the action, and the close tree line provides an intimate atmosphere for soccer matches.

The field was dedicated on Sept. 12, 1999 with a 3-0 win for the men’s team over Army. It captured the Soccer Manager’s Association College Soccer Field of the Year in 1999.

Since it’s opening, the men’s team has registered a 62-24-7 mark on its home turf.

TLI SPORTS TLI Sports is proud to have been chosen by Boston College to supply and install Polytan’s renowned Ligaturf synthetic turf system at Boston College’s Newton Campus Soccer Complex as the first synthetic turf game field in the ACC Soccer Conference. With close to six decades of combined company experience, TLI Sports and Polytan are committed to providing the best possible surfaces, installation and construction services for sports facilities at every level.

Built to the highest standard thus far demanded for any synthetic turf field in North America-FIFA Certification for 5 years-the 100,000 square foot installation is comprised of a 40mm monofilament fiber installed over a 25mm paved elastic layer. Together with rounded silica sand, the system utilizes the next generation of infill called BionPro, a specially made environmentally friendly thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) offering advanced elasticity, durability, recyclability, temperature reduction and resistance to UV degradation.

NEWTON CAMPUS COMPLEX

“The field is one of a kind in this country. It’s absolutely a fantastic field. It shows the commitment of our University and our athletic director to put that kind of resources into our athletics programs.”

- Head Coach Ed Kelly

BOSTON COLLEGE Boston College was founded in 1863 by the Society of Jesus to serve the sons of Boston’s Irish immigrants.

It was the first institution of higher education to be founded in the city of Boston. Today, it is one of the foremost universities in the nation, with a coeducational enrollment of 14,500 undergraduate and graduate students. Boston College has drawn students from all 50 states and more than 80 countries.

Boston College has grown not just in size, but also in stature and diversity. Today, it is ranked among the top 34 national universities by US News & World Report. Its Graduate School of Social Work is listed among the nation’s top 15, also by US News, while the graduate programs of its Lynch School of Education are among the top 20 and its Connell School of Nursing and Law School are among the top 30. In addition, Bloomberg/BusinessWeek ranks the Carroll School of Management 9th in the “Top Undergraduate Business Programs 2010.” Boston College is among the nation’s most selective universities, with nearly 30,000 applications received for its 2,250-member Class of 2014, and is numbered among the top American private research universities.

After more than a century of growth and evolution, Boston College holds fast to the ideals that inspired its Jesuit founders. The University today remains focused on its mission of helping students to develop their minds and talents while providing them with the motivation and compassion to use those talents in the service of others.

62

BOSTON COLLEGE Today, the Boston College motto “ever to excel” also extends to a broad array of extracurricular activities and opportunities ranging from sports to the arts.

Athletics is integral to the University’s focus on the development of the whole person in body as well as in mind and spirit. BC offers 31 men’s and women’s varsity sports, all of which compete at the NCAA Division I level, and annually has one of the highest graduation rates in Division IA.

“Deeply rooted in its Catholic and Jesuit origins, Boston College offers an education that is distinctive in spirit and content, that is doubly rich with the best of human thought and with the profound insights of faith,” writes Reverend William P. Leahy, SJ, who assumed the presidency of Boston College in 1996. “We believe that Boston College provides a transforming experience for young men and women.”

A continued expression of this philosophy, based on the Jesuit principle of cura personalis, or care for the individual, is the faculty’s dedication to teaching. BC faculty members have been honored for their teaching by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Education, while the University’s overall commitment to teaching has been ranked among the nation’s top 20, also by US News & World Report.

BC offers a wide variety of resources that enrich intellectual and cultural life beyond the campus gates. Among these are the Jesuit Institute; Center for Ignatian Spirituality; Roche Center for Catholic Education; Church in the 21st Century Center; Boisi Center for Religion and American Public Life; Center for Human Rights and International Justice; Center for Christian-Jewish Learning; Winston Center for Leadership and Ethics; Center on Wealth and Philanthropy; Center for Retirement Research; Sloan Center on Aging and Work; Center for the Study of Testing, Evaluation and Educational Policy; TIMSS and PIRLS International Study Center; Center for International Higher Education; B u r n s L i b r a r y of Rare Books and Special Collections; Robsham Theater Arts Center; McMullen Museum of Art; Center for Child, Family and Community Partnerships; Center for Corporate Citizenship; Center for Work and Family; Center for Irish Programs; and Weston Observatory.

A Boston College education focuses not only on intellectual development, but also on personal, spiritual and physical development. Students are asked to use their abilities, education and acquired skills to help others in need, whether in Boston or Belize. For example, each year, BC undergraduates give some 550,000 hours of community service in the Boston area, while more than 650 students trade vacation for service during Spring Break. Nearly 2,000 students take part in retreats and spiritual formation activities annually.

63

CITY OF BOSTON The Boston area is home to more than 50 colleges and universities and 250,000 college students.

Boston is home to America’s first public park (Boston Common), first public library (1653) and first subway (1897).

Bostonians led the charge for freedom in the Revolutionary War. Built in 1912, Fenway Park is the oldest sports arena or stadium in active use among the four main professional sports.

The Boston Marathon is the oldest Marathon in the U.S. and runs along Commonwealth Avenue, A passing Boston College’s campus at the top of Heartbreak Hill.

St. Patrick’s Day was first celebrated in Boston in 1737 and continues to be one of the most celebrated events for the city.

The Bell & Hand Tavern (1784) is the oldest pub in America.

64

CITY OF BOSTON BC is located on the doorstep of one of America’s great cities, a center of culture and education for three centuries. With its unmatched history and present-day status as the cultural, educational and commercial center of New England, Boston has garnered a well-deserved reputation as one of the truly great cities in America and, indeed, in the world.

Boston, the capital of Massachusetts and largest city in the six-state region, is perhaps best known for its plethora of top-notch colleges and universities. It is also famous for a wide array of professional and amateur sports options and an appealing proximity to some of the Northeast’s finest vacationing spots.

EDUCATION The Boston area sports the world’s most concentrated collection of educational institutions. Many of the country’s top universities, including Boston College, are located in New England.

HISTORY Bostonians led the charge for freedom in the Revolutionary War, as the so-called “Minutemen” – bolstered by such eminent patriots as Paul Revere, Samuel Adams and John Hancock – fought and died for this country’s independence.

REGION Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket, scenic islands off the coast of Massachusetts, are well-known for their bike trails, historic lighthouses and meandering beaches. The “arm of Southeastern Massachusetts,” Cape Cod serves as a relaxing summer haven for thousands of Bostonians, New Englanders and others.

SPORTS In addition to a wide array of college sports, the Boston area is a hub of professional sports passion.

The Boston Red Sox capture the imagination of the region year-round and have won the World Series twice in the past four years. The New England Patriots have won three Super Bowl championships in the last seven years. The NBA’s Boston Celtics are widely considered the most successful and storied team in the history of sport, having just won their 17th world championship. The Boston Bruins were one of the NHL’s six original franchises.

PRESIDENT WILLIAM P. LEAHY, S.J. William P. Leahy, S.J. became the 25th president of Boston College on July 31, 1996. Born in Omaha, he grew up on his family’s farm near Imogene, Iowa.

After one year of college at Creighton University, he entered the Wisconsin Province of the Society of Jesus in 1967. He received a bachelor’s degree in philosophy and a master’s degree in United States history from Saint Louis University in 1972 and 1975, respectively.

Between 1975 and 1979, he studied theology at the Jesuit School of Theology in Berkeley, California, earning a master’s degree in divinity and a master’s degree in sacred theology while there. Ordained a priest in 1978, he completed doctoral studies in United States history at Stanford University in 1985.

Father Leahy joined the department of history at Marquette University in 1985 and became a tenured associate professor there six years later. In July 1991, he was named executive vice president at Marquette, where he served until being named president of Boston College in 1996.

During his years at Boston College, Father Leahy has presided over an institution that has solidified its position among the nation’s best and most selective national universities. Since 1996, BC’s endowment, sponsored research grants and student financial aid have doubled, and the percentage of student applicants accepted has fallen from 41 percent to 27 percent, while SAT SA scores have risen by more than 130 points. In addition, 100 full-time faculty members have been added, minority student enrollment in undergraduate programs has climbed from 18 percent to 26 percent and annual cash gifts to the University have increased from $24 million to $95 million.

During his presidency, undergraduate applications to Boston College have grown from 16,500 to 30,000, making BC the fifth most- applied to private university in the United States. Currently, the University enrolls students from all 50 states and 80 countries, and its undergraduates have earned more than 250 prestigious fellowships, including two Rhodes Scholarships. Student-athletes at BC succeed in balancing the demands of academics and athletics, and BC consistently ranks among those universities with the highest NCAA graduation rates.

Mostrecently,theBostonCollegecommunityhasbeenengagedinacomprehensive assessment and planning effort ef that resulted in a 10-year Strategic Plan. This plan will build on Boston College’s strengths and accomplishments of the past and will focus additional resources on undergraduate liberal arts education and formation, as well as integrated science research and teaching. The University also intends to increasingly apply the strengths of its professional schools to resolving critical societal issues, and foster even more international links. In addition, Boston College intends to remain faithful to its Jesuit, Catholic heritage and to become the leading Catholic university and theological center in the world.

DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS GENE DEFILIPPO

$27 million during the past year (this total includes an extraordinary payment towards a capital project).

The 4,600 donors to the Flynn Fund prove that there is strength in numbers; nearly 700 alumni, parents and friends have given to BC Athletics for at least 10 consecutive years.

Anne and Gene DeFilippo cemented their commitment to Boston College by announcing their pledge of $100,000 to endow a scholarship. The scholarship will be awarded annually to a female student-athlete who demonstrates outstanding academic achievement and financial need.

Since Gene DeFilippo became Director of Athletics in September of 1997, he has led the BC athletics program to an unprecedented period of innovation, growth, fundraising, athletic and academic success.

He also led the program through one of the most significant periods in its history as it transitioned to full membership in the Atlantic Coast Conference.

In athletics competition, DeFilippo has overseen some of the most successful seasons in Boston College Athletics history. During the 2009-10 season, the football team appeared in a school-record 11th consecutive bowl game and the men’s ice hockey team captured its fourth national championship (its third since 2001). In 2008, the men’s soccer team captured both the ACC regular-season and tournament championships and entered the NCAA Men’s Soccer Tournament as the overall No. 1 seed.

From 1993-97, DeFilippo served as director of athletics at Villanova University. He served as Associated

Director of Athletics at the University of Kentucky from 1987-93, Director of Athletics at the University of South Carolina-Spartanburg from 1984-87 and Director of Administrative Services at Vanderbilt University from 1983-84.

His coaching experience includes three years as offensive backfield coach at Vanderbilt (198082), which included the 1982 Hall of Fame Bowl.

From 1975-79, he was offensive coordinator at Youngstown State University, during which time the team won two consecutive Mid-Continent Conference championships, 1978-79. In 1973-74, he was graduate assistant football coach for the University of Tennessee, coaching in the 1973 Gator Bowl and 1974 Liberty Bowl.

A 1973 graduate of Springfield College with a Bachelor of Science degree, DeFilippo earned three varsity letters as a quarterback in football during his undergraduate career. He received a master’s degree in educational administration from the University of Tennessee in 1974.

DeFilippo and his wife, Anne, are the parents of three children – Christine Eldred (married to Matt Eldred), John and Mary.

Under DeFilippo’s leadership, Boston College studentathletes’ achievements in the classroom have become an immense source of pride for the University and its supporters. Twenty-one Boston College sports teams received a perfect Graduation Success Rate score of 100, according to data released by the NCAA last November. That figure represents the most teams with a perfect 100 score of any Division I intercollegiate athletics program in the country. Last year, 379 BC student-athletes maintained a grade point average of 3.0 or better, earning the Athletic Director’s Award for Academic Excellence. BC’s graduation rate for all student-athletes has consistently ranked in the nation’s top ten.

DeFilippo initiated an impressive overhaul of BC’s athletics facilities that includes new football practice facilities, a total renovation of Conte Forum, including a new sound system, floor and video boards, new soccer, field hockey and lacrosse facilities on the Newton campus, new Field Turf for Alumni Stadium, and an air-inflated bubble to cover the stadium turf to provide an indoor practice facility for all sports during the winter months.

DeFilippo was instrumental in raising money to build the privately funded $27 million, 72,000-square-foot Yawkey Athletics Center, which houses the football program, the Office of Learning Resources for Student-Athletes, and a large function area for general University use. After football moved into the Yawkey Center, BC undertook a multi-million dollar renovation Conte Forum to provide additional locker room and office space for many of BC’s 31 varsity sports.

DeFilippo renamed the Athletics Association’s fundraising arm (formerly Blue Chips) in honor of longtime Athletics Director Bill Flynn. Alumni, parents and friends of Boston College contributed more than

The DeFilippo Family – Matt and Christine (DeFilippo) Eldred, Anne, Gene, Mary and John.
