Central Missouri Wrestling UCM Multipurpose Building
Considered one the finest facilities of its kind in the nation, the Multipurpose Building is in its 39th year of service to the university. The $5.5 million facility was built at no expense to the State of Missouri, as financing was accomplished solely through student fees. The “Multi” truly lives up to its name, as it is one of the busiest places on campus. In addition to being the home of Mules and Jennies basketball and indoor track and field, Jennies volleyball, and Mules wrestling, the facility is used by university students, faculty, and staff, as well as the general public. Designed primarily for recreational use, the building features a spacious main arena with a six-lane track, a swimming pool, five indoor and two outdoor handball/racquetball courts, areas for free and universal weights, an activities area, locker rooms, meeting rooms, and offices for UCM’s Intercollegiate Athletics staff. The main arena can accommodate four basketball or six volleyball courts at one time or all of the events for an indoor track meet. Seating capacity in the Multipurpose Building is 8,500 for basketball and volleyball, making it the largest such facility in the MIAA. It also seats 1,640 fans for indoor track meets and 10,000 people for concerts. Numerous special events take place in the Multi each year. It hosted the Missouri State High School Activities Association’s state volleyball tournament from 1988 until 2008, and state high school playoff games for basketball are also played annually in the building. In addition, the MIAA Indoor Track and Field Championships are contested in the Multipurpose Building. The facility is also used for UCM’s annual commencement ceremonies, major concerts, and other UCM events. The Multi underwent a major renovation during the summer
of 1998. An inlaid-wood floor was installed in the main arena, replacing most of the original Tartan surface and eliminating the need for the portable-wood floor that had been used for basketball since 1988. Additionally, the running track was resurfaced and new jumping and vaulting pits were created for track and field. Before the 2008-09 school year, the Multi received another facelift with new seating. The near $1 million project added seatback chairs to the north end of the arena and new bleachers on the south side. Prior to the 2012-13 school year, the Multi was fitted with a brand new four-sided, center-hung scoreboard and video board system from SignCo of Lincoln, Neb. New scoreboards were also added the east and west walls and the arena was outfitted with a new 30-foot LED scorer’s table for use during dual meets.

In 2013-14 the Mules went 6-6 during the regular season and 2-4 in the MIAA, with a lot of post season success. Frank Cagnina won the first national title since the 2005-06 season. Cagnina and Ty Loethen are also the first AllAmerican honorees under Ensign. The two combined for 27.5 team points at the NCAA-II National Championship, placing Central Missouri at No. 18 in the nation. Cagnina and Loethen were both All-Region and All-MIAA wrestlers, while Josh Thomson also earned All-MIAA honors.
while finishing in the top 25 at the NCAA National Championships both seasons (18th in 2009, 22nd in 2010). Ensign also helped guide the Mules to five individual All-American performances. Ensign also spent one season as an assistant coach at his alma mater, Wagner College, in Staten Island, N.Y. As an assistant coach during the 2007-08 season, he helped the Seahawks finish fourth at the Virginia duals. Ensign also had two NCAA-I East Region third place winners. Before starting his coaching career, Ensign spent four years on the mat for Wagner. He was named team MVP two times and spent two seasons ranked in the top five in the CAA. He was also a twoyear team captain, and two-time Iron Man award winner. Ensign was a four-year starter, twice at both 141 and 149 pounds. The Cherry Hill, N.J. native earned his bachelor’s degree in Childhood Education and Sociology in 2007, and earned his master’s in Sports Management from Central Missouri in spring, 2011.
In 2012-13, the Mules finished 6-7 with a 2-3 conference record. Ensign finished the 2012-13 season coaching Eric Mateo at the NCAA-II Wrestling Championship, who finished at 21-21 overall. In his second season the Mules were plagued with injuries, finishing with a 3-14 dual record. The team may have been battered and bruised, but they still managed to have numerous top finishers at several tournaments throughout the season. Nick Viterisi earned All-Region honors that season, and posted an impressive 28-15 record. In his first season as head coach, 2010-11, Ensign guided the Mules to a 7-7 dual record with three individual national qualifiers, finishing tied for 30th in the nation. Prior to being named the eighth bench boss in Central Missouri history, Ensign spent two years as a graduate assistant coach under legendary Mules Wrestling coach Robin Ersland, who left UCM for the head coaching position at Minot State (N.D.) following the 2009-2010 season. During the two years Ensign was a graduate assistant under Ersland, the Mules compiled a 14-16 dual record,

The Central Missouri Mules have high expectations for the upcoming season. The team has large number of returning wrestlers, including both of their All-American honorees, but with a highly talented recruiting class, returners may have to compete to start. “I think we should be better and tougher, as long as our guys stay healthy. I think we could be one of the better teams in Division II,” said Head Coach Justin Ensign in an interview about the upcoming season. Central Missouri has two capable options at the top of their lineup. Malacai Collins will return for his sophomore year, but will have to beat Justin Forrest for the starting spot at 125 pounds. “Collins beat some ranked and top-level guys. He’s athletic and fun to watch, but he is also young and just needs to learn to be more consistent,” said Ensign. When asked about Forrest he said, “Justin looks good. He works hard, and has that extra gear and the fight that you look for. His technique may not always be perfect, but he will find a way.” Forrest was one of the top recruits in the country coming out of high school. He won FARGO, both styles, and FILA Juniors before starting his collegiate wrestling career. Forrest spent some time at Oklahoma and then transferred to Lindenwood where he was an NAIA All-American. Collins or Forrest will also have to option of starting at 133 pounds. Freshman, Donte Boose is a third option for the Mules at 133 pounds. He was a State Champion in Kansas last year, and was a three-time state qualifier. “Boose is really athletic and explosive, but still a little raw. I think with a little more development he’ll be really good for us.” Ensign stated. While the first two spots of the Mules line-up are to be determined, the team will look to experienced and successful older members to fill the following two weights. Senior Eric Mateo will wrestle his final season at 141 pounds. “I think Mateo knows this is his last chance, and will put his best foot forward this season,” said Ensign. Mateo was a national qualifier as a sophomore, and has beaten several ranked opponents in his career. Zadac Lankford, who was an undefeated state champion, will Eric Mateo also wrestle at 141 pounds this season. Ensign said, “He wants it. He really wants to be good, and does all the right things,” when asked about the redshirt freshman. At 149 pounds, Ensign will look to the rock of the Central Missouri line-up, and one of the best wrestlers in Division II, Frank Cagnina. He finished last season on a 29 match win streak, and claimed several Central Missouri records on the way to earning the National title. Ensign said, “Usually kids that win Nationals become complacent, but he is still the Frank Cagnina hungriest guy in the room. He knows how to prepare to win and takes care of it.” The Mules have several options at 157 pounds. Brennan Johnson is the returning starter, but he will be pushed by Evan Young, Logan Cairer and Zeb Spicer. Ensign feels confident that any of the four 157 pound options will be capable and successful this year.
All-American, Ty Loethen, is likely going to start at 165 pounds. Loethen was 8th at Nationals last season, but is recovering from surgery, and may redshirt this season. Ensign is not too worried about the weight, with sophomore Josh Thomson ready to step in if needed. Thomson was an All-MIAA Ty Loethen honoree last season. Ensign said, “Thomson is one of our hardest workers, and he wants to be really good. He has beaten some really good kids, and it’s just time for him to step up. He’s only a sophomore, and still has a lot of good time in front of him. It is just a matter of him getting it done.” Newcomer, Archie Williams, is the top option for the Mules at 174 pounds. Williams is a former Junior College All-American. Ensign said, “He is super fast and explosive. He hits big moves, and is very capable of doing well at this level. He just needs to keep developing, and work on the fundamentals, learning to control the match a little more. It’s fun when you have kids as athletic as him” Mike Boyd is also an option at 174 pounds, but could also bump up to 184 pounds. “Boyd has always been someone we have been able to count on, he’s a good team guy,” Ensign said of the junior. 184 pounds is another deep weight for the Mules. The starter will have to beat three or four teammates for the position. Right now the favorites are redshirt freshman Grant Sparks, true freshman Levi Scott Turley and junior Stephen Kirkbride. Nick Lovejoy started at 197 pounds last year, and will probably start again this season. Ensign said, “Lovejoy works really hard. He’s a machine. He still has some work to do, but he is willing to put the work in. He will be really good for us.” Robert Schneider is another 197 pound wrestler that could see some time on the mat this season. Ensign said ,“I really like the way the kid wrestles, he just needs to learn to adjust to the style. If he keeps developing he could be really good. He has a good skill set and was well coached in high school. He just needs to evolve to this level.” De’Quence Goodman will round out the Central Missouri line-up at heavy weight. He was a NJCA National Champion last season, and placed third at Nationals two years ago. Ensign has high hopes for the transfer, “Goodman is someone I expect to step in and be one of the best wrestlers in Division II. He only had a few losses in two years of Junior college, and is tough, competitive, big, and athletic. He hates losing.” Jacob Clark could also wrestle some matches at heavy weight. Clark is a sophomore, and started last season, but was injured at the end of the year and is still working on his recovery.

About Central Missouri
43
The University of Central Missouri transforms students into lifelong learners, dedicated to service, with the knowledge, skills and confidence to succeed and lead.
Future-Focused Academics
The world moves at a faster pace than ever before. UCM’s innovative programs use new technologies to keep students up to date on the latest changes in their fields of study. Our faculty members are accomplished in their fields as well. They bring their experiences in industry and academia to their classrooms for our on-campus students in Warrensburg and Lee’s Summit, as well as to their virtual classrooms through our online programs.
Hands-on Experience
Learning by doing is a cornerstone of our 150 academic programs. Through hands-on experiences, students take their knowledge from the classroom and apply it in real-life situations. Whether it’s conducting research with faculty members, developing a business plan for a local company or battling it out in a national criminal justice competition, UCM students graduate well prepared for the future with practical, applicable experience.
Culture of Service
For more than 140 years, UCM’s motto, “Education for Service,” has been embodied by students who volunteer countless hours assisting communities, businesses and non-profit agencies.
This tradition continues today when student groups clear debris after a tornado or build homes for local families through Habitat for Humanity. Service has always been a foundation of the university. By learning at a university that values that service, UCM students continue to make an impact on their communities long after they graduate.
Global Perspective
UCM values diversity in thought, culture and people. As a result, the university takes a worldly perspective on education and prepares students to thrive in a globalized economy.
President Barack Obama spoke to a crowd of UCM students, faculty and staff, and Warrensburg residents on July 24, 2013 at the UCM Student Recreation & Wellness Center.
UCM’s International Studies major examines global issues affecting human development, peace and security. The university’s study abroad programs connect students with more than 60 countries and 285 universities worldwide. UCM also has nearly 600 students from 47 different countries represented on campus. Experiencing these different ideas, cultures and people gives our students a unique perspective and prepares them for today’s global society.

Ambrose sought to build student enrollment, an effort that continues to pay off with the largest enrollment in the university’s 140-year history. He has also begun a major initiative to encourage and provide assistance for students to graduate college within four years with less debt. The president continues to build strong relationships with the men and women who serve this country. This includes the establishment of the Whiteman Advantage Program, which brings together personnel from Whiteman Air Force Base and the university to work cooperatively in creating new educational opportunities for military members. The university also developed the Military Tuition Package, which provides savings on an education for military men and women currently serving their country, as well as their spouses and dependents, and veterans. Under his direction, the university developed a new strategic positioning initiative to provide a more articulated understanding of what makes UCM unique and helped guide the institution in establishing its future priorities. In fall 2012, Ambrose launched the new Missouri Innovation Campus, in collaboration with the Lee’s Summit R-7 School District and private industry, which will allow students to begin college during their junior year of high school and complete a degree in four years with little or no debt. President Ambrose attended Furman University, where he was a four-year letterman and captain of the soccer team. After graduating from Furman with a bachelor’s degree in sociology, he earned two advanced degrees in higher education administration, a master’s from the University of Louisville and a Doctor of Education degree from the University of Georgia.

The University of Central Missouri has a long and rich history of excellence in athletics, both on the field of play and in the classroom. Outstanding teams, combined with some of the finest facilities in Division II athletics give UCM’s students, faculty and staff one more aspect of college life to enjoy with pride. Always a contender for conference titles, Central Missouri belongs to the 14-member Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association, which is recognized nationwide as one of the strongest conferences in all of NCAA Division II.

Central Missouri has won six national championships since 1980 (men’s and women’s basketball in 1984--the first school in NCAA history to win both titles in the same season--baseball in 1994 and 2003, women’s bowling in 2003 and men’s basketball in 2014), and eight overall. The Jennies volleyball team has been to the NCAA Tournament every season for the past 31 years, and the Mules have won 17 MIAA Indoor Track & Field titles in the last 20 years, and 10 of the

Six teams finished in the top 10 in the nation via ranking or place.

Take a Mule Refresher and Learn What’s So Special about Missouri’s State Animal
Often called mankind’s most successful hybrid, mules are the offspring of crossing a male donkey or jack with a female horse or mare. Since they can’t reproduce, mules have been bred one generation at a time for more than 3,000 years. A strong, resourceful beast of burden, the mule can outwork, outpull, outlive and outsmart a horse of similar size and type. In 1995, the mule became Missouri’s official state animal, but the long-eared creatures have been known as “Missouri Mules” long before then. The term, “Missouri Mules,” was used casually until it became famous at the historic 1904 St. Louis World’s Fair. At that exposition a six-mule hitch belonging to W. A. Elgin of Platte County swept all competition, and a mule from a Morgan County farm received the $10,000 Mayor’s Award. Newspaper accounts of this show-ring prowess brought worldwide attention to the state’s mule breeders and helped assure that the largest and finest animals would be known as “Missouri Mules.”
Many people assume that the relationship of mules and jennies is the same as that of siblings, but jennies are female donkeys. So, the relationship of mules and jennies is really the same as nephew/niece and aunt. Jenny is a common name but technically a female donkey is a jennet. Popular with farmers and settlers because of its hardy nature, Missouri Mules pulled pioneer wagons to the Wild West and played a crucial role in moving troops, artillery and supplies in several wars. In fact, many of the mules used in World War I were shipped by train from Warrensburg. The mule’s affiliation with Central Missouri dates back to the early 1920s. When the 1921-22 school year began, school officials decided “Normals” and “Teachers” were no longer appropriate nicknames for UCM’s athletic teams. Therefore, the school’s Athletic Committee established a contest that promised the winner a three-year postgraduate subscription of the school newspaper. More than 80 suggestions were received, but the winning entry was submitted by John Thomason of Chilhowee, class of 1924, who felt at least one Missouri team should be known as “Mules.” Central Missouri’s fifth mascot - Mancow - is the university’s first real Missouri mule. The line-back brown mule comes from Paradise Mules in Belle, Mo. It took several months for farm manager Dave Ewing to find the perfect mule. He was determined to acquire the right mule trained to remain calm around big crowds and loud noises - that game cannon gets loud! Mancow the Mule is the second UCM mule to be tall (14.1 hands), a result of her thoroughbred heritage. The university’s first three mules were Shetland Pony breeds. She’s the second mule to be presented to the university as a gift. Erich “Mancow” Muller, ‘88, made a gift to purchase the new mascot. Abbedale, her immediate predecessor, was donated to the university by 1938 alumnus and well-known mule producer, Sam Smiser from Newhall, Calif. The 10-year-old mare mule represented the university at home football games and other events. UCM agriculture students care for her at Prussing Farm, a few miles east of Warrensburg on Division Road. Following her first appearance at the 2004 Missouri State Fair, Mancow saw her first game action, as Central Missouri hosted MIAA-rival Northwest Missouri State on Sept. 11.

Top 10 Reasons to Admire a Mule
1 0. Affectionate and loving as a dog 9. Can carry heavy loads, up to 300 pounds 8. Rarely miss when they aim to kick something 7. Jump amazing heights from a stand-still start (go watch a mule jump at a county fair - it’s amazing!) 6. Have a laid-back style and won’t be rushed 5. Valued so highly, once bought sight unseen 4. Inspire attitudes - cum mula peperit (when a mule foals), similar to once in a blue moon 3. Knows when to quit (hence its reputation for stubbornness) 2. Intelligent and not afraid of working 1. Because it became our mascot in 1922, over the skunk, bobcat and hippopotamus!

Welcome to Warrensburg Warrensburg, Missouri is a friendly community of 18,000 people near the intersection of U.S. Highway 50 and Missouri Route 13. It is located just 40 miles southeast of suburban Kansas City, with its many cultural offerings, entertainment options and professional sports franchises. The county seat of Johnson County, Warrensburg is just four hours from St. Louis and three hours from Branson, Mo., with easy access by highway, Amtrak, or Greyhound bus. Other recreational opportunities include the beautiful Lake of the Ozarks 90 minutes to the southeast. Warrensburg is a city that emerged from a frontier gathering place more than 150 years ago. In 1833, a blacksmith from Kentucky named Martin Warren chose a well-travelled spot along an Osage Indian Trail to build a cabin and set up his blacksmith shop. His shop served as an informal gathering place for local farmers. Three years after moving to Missouri, Mr. Warren’s shop was named the county seat of the newly created County of Johnson. The township was named Warren’s Burg in honor of the local blacksmith, and in 1855, the township was incorporated and became the City of Warrensburg. It is that same strong midwestern work ethic displayed by its founder, and the same friendly atmosphere shown by his neighbors that may be seen in Warrensburg today. In the late 1800s and early 1900s Warrensburg was considered the Missouri Mule Capital because of the Horse and Mule Barn operated by the Jones Brothers on Railroad Street. Mules from the area won prizes at the State Fair (located just 30 minutes east in Sedalia, Mo.) and at even larger expositions like the one in St. Louis in 1904. The mule barn carried the motto, “Through these portals pass the meanest mules on earth.” Warrensburg is home to many historic sites, including “Blind” Boone Park, the historic Johnson County Courthouse, the Missouri Pacific Train Depot, and many historical churches. It is also the site of the Old Drum Memorial Statue, in honor of Old Drum, the hound shot and killed by his owner’s neighbor in 1869. Old Drum was eulogized

by George Graham Vest on September 23, 1870: “The one absolutely unselfish friend that man can have in this selfish world, the one that never deserts him and the one that never proves ungrateful or treacherous is his dog.” Today the city’s Park Department has eight park areas with a total of 326 acres, and a Community Center which offers a wide variety of recreational activities. Two public golf courses are available in town -- one at the Hidden Pines Country Club, and another at Pertle Springs, operated Photo courtesy of United States Air Force by the University of Central Missouri. Other attractions in the area include Powell Gardens, a 1,250+ botanical garden just 12 miles west of Warrensburg on Missouri Highway 50 that contains hiking trails, picnic areas, and seasonal displays; Whiteman Air Force Base in Knob Noster, Mo., home of the B-2 Bomber; Knob Noster State Park; and the Missouri State Fair, held each August in Sedalia, Mo. Of course, visitors to Warrensburg can also take in the exciting athletic events and various cultural experiences provided at the University of Central Missouri.
