TORI FORD Junior

MARLEN MESGARZADEH Sophomore

The W&M roster features seven underclassmen with four freshmen and three sophomores. Senior Lauren Sabacinski and juniors Katie Kargl and Tori Ford will be charged with leading a young but talented group. Sabacinski (picutured right), who missed the fall with injury, returns for her fifth season with the Green and Gold. She owns the most career victories in both singles and doubles on the Tribe roster, having won 63 singles matches and 66 in pairs action. Last season, Sabacinski won 20 doubles matches and closed the season earning Third-Team All-CAA honors along with Marlen Mesgarzadeh in doubles. After suffering a season-ending injury in 2008, Sabacinski will look to return to the form of her first two seasons in singles competition. During both her rookie and sophomore campaigns, she won more than 20 singles matches and was a fixture in the Green and Gold lineup.

KATIE KARGL Junior

LAUREN SABACINSKI ANIK CEPEDA Sophomore

Senior Kargl, like Sabacinski, has battled injuries throughout her career, but is as healthy as she has been heading into the dual-match campaign. After winning four of her final five matches during the 2010 dual match season, Kargl won four singles affairs during the fall. Last season, the Downers Grove, Ill., native tallied key wins in the Tribe’s quarterfinal and semifinal wins during the CAA Tournament over Delaware and Georgia State. Ford joined the Tribe last season after transferring from Syracuse. A highly decorated player in the state of Virginia, the Williamsburg, Va., native won a pair of state championships as a prep at Lafayette High School. Playing primarily doubles last season, Ford notched her first singles win as a member of the Tribe in advancing to the semifinals of the Flight G singles bracket at the Virginia Tech Invitational. Marlen Mesgarzadeh (pictured left) highlights the Green and Gold sophomore trio having earned First-Team All-CAA honors in singles competition and third-team distinction in doubles as a rookie. Last season, she finished with an 18-12 singles ledger playing at the top of the Green and Gold lineup. Mesgarzadeh also tallied an impressive 20-8 doubles ledger, including an 11-3 mark with Sabacinski.

Despite a youthful roster, the Green and Gold will look to ascend to the top of the Colonial Athletic Association and earn an NCAA Tournament berth in 2011. The Tribe returns six players from a team that advanced to the CAA Championship match and gave then-No. 25-ranked VCU all it could handle in a 4-3 title tilt setback. Third-year head coach Meredith Geiger-Walton and third-year assistant Toni Neykova added to their solid group of returners with a four-member recruiting class that was ranked No. 7 in the Tennis Recruiting Network’s Mid-Major rankings.

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

S COOL W&M FACTS AND RA NK ING

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.

Established in 1948 to create support for William and Mary Athletics, the Tribe Club is made up of alumni and friends of the College’s athletics programs. Due to the fact that W&M receives no aid from the state for its sports programs, the Tribe Club is the sole provider of scholarships for William and Mary’s student-athletes. Additionally, money raised annually by the Tribe Club helps defray a portion of the operating expenses for program support.

ACADEMIC ADVISING PHILOSOPHY Sound academic advice can make the crucial difference between a coherent and exciting education that satisfies personal and professional goals and one that is fragmented and frustrating. Academic advising is recognized at the College as important to the development of its students, a natural extension of teaching and an important professional obligation on the part of its faculty.

Along with hard-work and dedication both on the field and in the classroom, the William and Mary Athletic Department and its student-athletes also strive to make a positive impact in the community. In 2010, various Tribe athletic programs donated their time and energy in different capacities throughout Williamsburg and the Hampton Roads area. Among the dozens of activities, Tribe teams read at local schools, volunteered at youth camps, doing community-based service projects and collected food, clothing and money for non-profit organizations.

Tribe baseball reached out into the community this past year participated in Fitness Night at The Arc of Greater Williamsburg. Tribe student-athletes helped 40 members of The Arc engage in exercises and baseball activities for two hours and talked about the importance of exercise and developing healthy eating habits.

Among the leaders in the Tribe’s efforts in the community is the Student Athletic Advisory Council (SAAC). The SAAC’s goal is to provide a communications link between student athletes and the athletic administration, while promoting and supporting the athletic department, college and local community. The Council is composed of two representatives from each varsity team and the cheerleading team. Selected athletic administrators are non-voting members of the Council.
