Over recent years, the College has invested millions of dollars in renovations and upgrades for Zable Stadium, including permanent lights in 2005 and a state-of-the-art video board in 2007. In 2009, the track and cross country teams were moved into permanent locker facilities under the grandstands. The track surface was completely renovated in the summer of 2006 after being taken down to the foundations and rebuilt from the base on up into a world record-allowable facility. The straightaway allows for sprints and hurdles to run in both directions and two of the three jumping pits can be used at any one time, to take best advantage of the wind. In February of 2007, William and Mary announced the dedication of the Stimson Throwing Events Area, a purpose-built throwing field named in honor of long-time Tribe mentor Dan Stimson. The facility includes a pair of shot put circles and a rubberized javelin runaway, as well as an Olympic-level throwing cage with circles for both the discus and the hammer throw. Located just a few hundred yards from both the stadium and W&M Hall, the throwing arena has already played host to several Olympic hopefuls, and has given the Tribe throwing program an immediate boost with eight CAA titles in the four years since it opened.

Cary Field has been the epicenter of the William and Mary track and field world since the first World War, when the first track was built on the land that then lay to the west of the College itself. The Colonial Relays were started by coach Harry Groves in 1963, and in the 57 years since have brought tens of thousands of the nation’s best athletes to Williamsburg, including dozens of Olympians and hundreds of All-Americans. That tradition continues in 2011, with 50 colleges and universities on tap for three days in one of the East Coast’s largest invitational meets.

In his 25th year as Director of Track and Field at William and Mary, Dan Stimson oversees a program that has demonstrated success both in the classroom and on the track, and has served as an exemplary model for what collegiate athletics should be all about. In recognition of his years of service, the College honored Coach Stimson in 2007 by naming the new throwing facility in his honor, the Stimson Throwing Events Area. Made possible through a generous donation from Mr. And Mrs. Joe Showker, the facility includes an Olympic throwing cage with circles for the hammer and discus, two shot put circles, and javelin runway.

The men’s and women’s programs have combined for 25 Colonial Athletic Association titles out of 34 possible since the 2002-03 school year, and have garnered numerous CAA Athlete and Rookie of the Year awards. In 2009-10, the teams won three of four conference titles for the third year in a row, and in May, sent a program-record 14 athletes to the NCAA Championships. The men’s cross country team also extended a streak of its own, making the NCAA Championships for the 13th consecutive season and winning its 10th regional title. To date, Stimson’s programs have produced 63 All-Americans and one Olympian while winning 49 CAA team titles out of the 92 possible (53%).

The William and Mary men’s track and field and cross country teams entered 2010-11 with big shoes to fill after one of the most successful years in school history. A new coach and several outstanding efforts in the fall and winter have the Tribe well on its way to accomplishing those goals and more as the spring opens in the next few weeks.
DISTANCE
The Tribe distance group had an outstanding 2009-10, beginning with a fifth-place finish at the NCAA cross country championships, and continuing with an All-American indoors and seven athletes at the NCAA outdoor championships. This year, the goal is to replicate that success.
The sprinting and hurdling corps is one of the deepest in the last decade, with two outstanding veteran hurdlers and a pair of talented underclass sprinters looking to make their first marks on the Tribe program.

THROWS
The Tribe throwing corps experienced tremendous improvement in 2010 that should carry over into this season, and help keep the College in the region’s top tier of programs.
MIDDLE DISTANCE
The middle distances look to again be a significant strength for the Tribe, contributing heavily across all three seasons in 2010-11.

strong commitment to undergraduate research. The College, which became a state university in 1906, has been designated a “Public Ivy,” and for nine straight years has been ranked by U.S. News & World Report as the sixthbest public university in the country – and the nation’s top small public university.
“William & Mary can make a good case for being the most selective public college in America. Its size . . . is ideal, the envy of a good many prestigious private colleges. Its setting and its own lush campus . . . provide the stuff calendars are made of. Its academic program . . . is no nonsense, followed by impressive placement in graduate schools and jobs.” Richard Moll, author of The Public Ivys: A Guide to America’s Best Public Undergraduate Colleges and Universities

The College of William and Mary is a public university located in Williamsburg, Va. Founded in 1693 by Royal Charter issued by King William III and Queen Mary II of England, William and Mary is the second oldest college in the country after Harvard. William and Mary has a long history of liberal arts education and a growing research and science curriculum that demonstrates a

Also referred to as “the alma mater of a nation,” the College has educated four U.S. Presidents – George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, James Monroe and John Tyler, which is the third most of any college in the country. William and Mary also claims several firsts, including the 1776 creation of Phi Beta Kappa – the country’s first academic honor society – the first honor code of conduct
for college students, and the first collegiate law school, established in 1779. William and Mary is also home to the Sir Christopher Wren Building – the country’s oldest academic building still in use – and the President’s House, the oldest home of a university president still in use.

Sandra Day O’Connor, who retired as Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court, was named twenty-third Chancellor of the College by the College of William and Mary Board of Visitors. Justice O’Connor’s appointment became effective at her April 2006 investiture; she succeeded Dr. Henry A. Kissinger, former United States Secretary of State, who was appointed in 2000. The post of Chancellor has been an important one since the College was chartered in 1693 by King William III and Queen Mary II of Great Britain. Until 1776, the Chancellor was an English subject – usually the Archbishop of Canterbury or the Bishop of London – who served as the College’s advocate to the crown, while a colonial president oversaw the day-to-day activities of the Williamsburg campus. Following the Revolutionary War, George Washington was appointed as the first American chancellor; later President John Tyler held the post. The first woman to serve on the United States Supreme Court, Justice O’Connor was born in El Paso, Texas, on March 26, 1930. She earned a B. A. in economics (magna cum laude) from Stanford University, and went on to receive an LL. B. from Stanford Law School, where she graduated third in her class. Her classmate, the late Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist, graduated first in the class.

Under the steady guidance and watchful eye of Terry Driscoll, the William and Mary Athletics Department has solidified its standing as one of the nation’s preeminent broad-based programs. As Driscoll enters his 15th year as athletics director, he has overseen an unprecedented era of improvement in terms of funding and facilities while also maintaining the College’s rich history of producing well-rounded student-athletes. Driscoll oversees a program that is committed to balancing academic demands with athletic success. One of the department’s stated goals each year is to finish among the top 100 in the annual Director’s Cup rankings, which has happened in all but one of the years that Driscoll has been the director. In the last seven years, the Tribe’s program has combined for a total of 29 Colonial Athletic Association (CAA) titles. This past season, W&M claimed three CAA titles (Men’s and Women’s Cross Country and Women’s Track & Field). In 2002-03, W&M had a school-record 10 teams compete in the NCAA Tournament, with four teams winning conference titles and six that finished in the top 25 at the end of their respective seasons. Overall, no institution in the CAA can claim more alltime league championships than the 98 William and Mary has earned.
