GAMPEL PAVILION The UConn Huskies play all of their home matches in Harry A. Gampel Pavilion, a spacious, state-of-the-art building that opened in January of 1990 and houses more than 10,000 spectators. Gampel Pavilion was a $28 million project and totals more than 171,000 square feet in the domed area. The brilliant aluminum dome of the building towers more than 130 feet in the air from ground level. Following the 2009 season of volleyball, new scoreboards and video boards were installed, along with separate displays that showcase team and individual statistics. The 2013 season marks the 20th year in Gampel for the Connecticut volleyball team, which has compiled an impressive overall record of 184-66 since beginning play in the Pavilion in 1993. This season, Connecticut will play at least 14 matches in front of a home crowd at Gampel Pavilion, the most since 2004. The home slate includes American Athletic Conference matches against all nine of UConnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s league counterparts. The UConn volleyball team has access to two different weight rooms in Gampel Pavilion along with the Hugh S. Greer Field House Weight Room for use during their strength and conditioning workouts. The weight rooms feature custom made multi-use racks and platforms, dumbbell racks, cable machines and various Cybex Machines.

EXPERIENCE IN YOUTH • The Huskies return 10 letterwinners from last year’s 19-12 team, but middle blocker Jackie Wattles (Liberty Hill, Texas) represents the lone senior on the squad. UConn will be comprised of five freshmen, four sophomores and five juniors to go along with Wattles.

PACKING A PUNCH

2013

Season Preview

• UConn’s 2013 roster features six players that recorded at least 100 kills in 2012, and each of them recorded at least one double-digit kill contest during the season. Junior Devon Maugle (Plymouth Meetings, Pa.) is the top returning attacker after posting 302 kills last year, good for 3.05 per set. Sophomore Immanuella Anagu (Culver City, Calif.) was UConn’s most efficient offensive weapon a year ago, leading the way with her .286 hitting percentage spread out over 142 kills (1.61 k/s). Wattles, junior Karson Ratliff (Wake Forest, N.C.) and sophomores Madeline Kuppe (Palo Alto, Calif.) and Erika Thomas (Ocoee, Fla.) all joined Maugle and Anagu in eclipsing the century mark in kills.

BLOCK PARTY • Thomas led the Huskies with 104 blocks in 2012, averaging 1.04 rejections per set. Anagu and Wattles also got in on the defensive action, collecting 84 and 76 blocks on the year, respectively. Thomas posted a team-high 86 block assists, while Anagu led the charge with 20 solo blocks.

HELPING HANDS • Sophomore Marissa Prinzbach (Cincinnati, Ohio) returns as UConn’s primary setter in 2013 after a freshman campaign to remember. Prinzbach finished the year with 874 assists, and her 9.93 assists per set came in at 113th nationally and 12th among all freshmen in the country. Prinzbach was named BIG EAST Rookie of the Week on Oct. 21 after combining to dish out 98 assists in matches vs. USF and Pittsburgh. She joined Anagu (Oct. 28) as Husky rookies in 2012 to take home the weekly award.

DEFENSIVE MINDED • Despite graduating UConn’s second all-time digs leader in Kelsey Maving, the Huskies return three defensive specialists who all saw time in at least 27 matches last year. Junior Brianna Datti (Durham, N.H.) is UConn’s returning leader in digs after tallying 247 in 2012, reaching double figures 12 times including a career-high 16 against Seton Hall. Datti was also one of two players to appear in all 114 sets last year. She is joined by classmates Amy Christensen (Ashburn, Va.) and Sage Esposito (Milford, Conn.) as returners on the back line for the Huskies. That duo combined for 113 digs last year and will have plenty of opportunity to increase their contribution in 2012.

FRESH FACES • UConn’s 10 returning letterwinners will be bolstered by 2012 BIG EAST Co-Coach of the Year Holly Strauss-OBrien’s strong incoming five-member freshman class. The balanced crop of rookies includes defensive specialist Courtney Crosby (Los Alamitos, Calif.), middle blocker Hayley Cmajdalka (College Station, Texas), outside hitters Camille Evans (Chicago, Ill.) and Jade Strawberry (Tallahassee, Fla.), and setter Sophia Mar (Oakland, Calif.) Each comes to Storrs after decorated prep and club careers and will look to make immediate impact for the Huskies.

North Carolina ’03, Connecticut G’05 126-109 Overall Record • 57-55 Conference • 2012 BIG EAST Co-Coach of the Year Holly Strauss-O’Brien is the sixth head coach in the 34-year history of Connecticut volleyball and is entering her ninth season at the helm. In the past eight seasons, Strauss-O’Brien turned UConn into one of the top programs in the BIG EAST, reaching the conference tournament five times before turning her sites this year to the newly minted American Athletic Conference. Her 19-12 performance with a roster stacked mostly with underclassmen in 2012 garnered Strauss-O’Brien BIG EAST Co-Coach of the year honors. Entering 2013, Strauss-O’Brien owns an overall record of 126-109. She posted a 58-55 mark in the BIG EAST over her eight seasons in the coference. In a 3-0 victory over New Hampshire at the Holly Young Invitational on September 10, 2011, Strauss-O’Brien recorded the 100th win of her career. Under the direction of Strauss-O’Brien, eight players have garnered post season awards from the BIG EAST. Most recently, Mattison Quayle earned a spot on the 2012 All-BIG EAST first team. It marked the second straight year UConn had seen an All-Conference perfromer, after Jordan Kirk earned a spot on the league’s second team in 2011. In 2008, Annie Luhrsen earned a spot on the All-BIG EAST First Team and was named the conference’s Rookie of the Year, becoming the first major conference award winner since 1995, while Chauncey Mickens was named to the All-BIG EAST Second Team. Prior to that, Sadé Chambers (2007) earned a spot on the First Team and Bridget Denson-Dorman (2006, 2007) and Jenny Neelands (2005) each made their way on to the Second Team. In 2012, Quayle became the 14th player in UConn history to record 1,000 career kills. Also impressive has been her charges efforts in the classroom. Nineteen team members have earned Director of Athletics Scholar-Athlete Honor Roll status, and the 2012 squad saw 11 members named to the BIG EAST Academic All-Star team. The 2012 season was one of Strauss-O’Brien’s best, as she led UConn to a 19-12 finish and a 10-5 mark in conference play, leading to the fourth seed in the BIG EAST Tournament. That marked UConn’s highest conference finish since its 20-win season in 2008. That 2008 season marked the highest season winning-percentage of StraussO’Brien’s career, leading the team to its first 20-or-more win season since the 2003 season. She was acknowledged by her peers as one of the American Volleyball Coaches Association’s (AVCA) “30 Under 30 Award” recipients in 2008. In its inaugural year, the AVCA award recognized 30 up-and-coming volleyball coaches at all levels of the sport.

Strauss-O’Brien began her mentorship at UConn as an assistant coach with the Huskies prior to being named the head coach in 2005. As a graduate assistant during the 2003 season, she helped the team to a 20-12 record, a six-match improvement from the previous season, before Strauss-O’Brien became the program’s full-time assistant at the start of the 2004 campaign. She was appointed as the interim head coach midway through the 2004 season. The team responded to Strauss-O’Brien’s guidance by concluding the season with a 17-11 record, posting a 6-4 mark in BIG EAST play. Prior to Strauss-O’Brien’s arrival in Storrs, she served as a coach for the Triangle Volleyball Club 17s in Durham, N.C. where she led the team to a Regional Championship title. Strauss-O’Brien enjoyed an illustrious playing career at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill where she helped put together a 115-22 (.839) record in her four seasons with the team. In that span, the Tar Heels went 32-4 in 2002 with a trip to the NCAA Tournament Sweet 16 in addition to three Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) Tournament titles and a pair of ACC regular season crowns. Strauss-O’Brien was a two-time team captain and remains UNC’s career-leader in blocks per game (1.24 bbg), totaling 311 block assists to place her second on the all-time career list. In addition, Strauss-O’Brien posted the fifth-best single-season total with 36 solo blocks in 2001. She has twice etched her name on the season block assist record list with 128 in 2001 (fourth) and 124 in 2000 (fifth). She graduated from North Carolina with a bachelor’s degree in psychology before receiving her master’s degree in kinesiology, sport management and sociology of sport at UConn in 2005. A native of Hamilton, Ontario, Strauss-O’Brien gained international playing experience as a member of the Canadian Junior National Team from 199698, making the All-Star team at the Cuba Invitational. She and Tim O’Brien were married on May 24, 2008 and they reside in Vernon, Conn. UConn Senior Associate AD/SWA Debbie Corum on Strauss-O’Brien:

“Holly is an energetic, positive coach who is passionate and dedicated to her student-athletes’ success, both on and off the court. As a Division I athlete herself, she is knowledgeable about what it takes to succeed at a high level and I have enjoyed watching her enthusiasm as she shares that knowledge with the team and her staff. Participating in a new conference will add to the excitement as we expect the competition to be very good but Holly will have UConn prepared. They are such an exciting team to watch that I can hardly wait for the season to begin.”

UConn went 10-5 in league play, marking just its third double-digit win total in BIG EAST play in 25 years in the conference. The Huskies finished fourth in the conference standings, advancing to the BIG EAST Tournament for the first time since 2009.

2012

Season Recap

CONFERENCE HONOR ROLL Head Coach Holly Strauss-O’Brien and senior outside hitter Mattison Quayle both took home BIG EAST hardware at the close of the 2012 season. Quayle was named to the All-BIG EAST first team, becoming the first Husky to garner first team honors since Annie Luhrsen in 2008. UConn has placed at least one player on an All-BIG EAST first or second team in every year but one since 1993. Strauss-O’Brien was named the 2012 BIG EAST Co-Coach of the Year after posting a 19-12 record with a roster featuring mostly underclassmen. She became the first UConn coach to win the league’s top honor since Ellen Crandall in 1994, and just the third UConn skipper all-time to receive the laurel.

QUAYLE GOES MILLENNIAL Against Marquette on Nov. 2, Quayle became the 14th player in program history to eclipse 1,000 career kills. For her career, she finished with 1,077 kills, ninth all-time. Quayle also finished just shy of becoming the seventh player in program history to tally 1,000 kills and 1,000 digs, finishing her time in Storrs with 913 digs. FRESHMAN PHENOMS UConn’s 19-12 season was fueled by contributions from underclassmen, including its outstanding freshman class. Immanuella Anagu and Marissa Prinzbach each secured BIG EAST Rookie of the Week honors late in the year, with Prinzbach taking home the award on Oct. 21 before Anagu won it on Oct. 28. Prinzbach led UConn with 9.93 assists per set for the year, 12th among all freshmen nation-wide. Anagu and fellow rookies Madeline Kuppe and Erika Thomas all eclipsed 100 kills in 2012, while Thomas led UConn with 1.04 blocks per set. MARVELOUS MAVING Libero Kelsey Maving turned in a stellar senior campaign in 2012 to cap her outstanding career. Maving led the Huskies with 602 digs, accounting for 5.28 digs per set. That mark placed her 36th in the country. For her career, the four-year letterwinner finished with 1,881 digs, second among all UConn players.

CPIA

///

The University of Connecticut is committed to each of its student-athletes as a total person. Participation in athletics is important, but it represents only one aspect of an individual’s college experience. At the University of Connecticut, academic achievement is a prime concern. Impressively, for the past five years, the Connecticut student-athlete academic retention rate has been 99.0 percent. The University’s commitment to the student-athlete is a dual one. Athletic participation is not viewed as an obstacle to the attainment of one’s educational goals, rather it is seen as a complimentary activity. Each supports the other. Athletic excellence is stressed, but academic achievement is never compromised - indeed, it is given the utmost priority. For this reason, the University recognizes the need for a support program for intercollegiate athletes. The Counseling Program for Intercollegiate Athletes (CPIA) assists the athletes in achieving their academic goals. The CPIA staff serves as liaisons to the academic faculty and to the Division of Athletics. CPIA was established in 1986 to provide comprehensive academic support to all UConn student-athletes. CPIA’s staff includes a director, nine full-time counselors, one graduate assistant and a large complement of tutors. The program boasts its own Macintosh/IBM writing lab with access to the Internet, as well as reference tools in the Homer Babbidge Library.

SPORTS MEDICINE

///

The Department of Sports Medicine in the University of Connecticut Division of athletics works as an integrated multidisciplinary team whose purpose is to provide the optimal, safe environment for each of UConn’s intercollegiate student-athletes to train and participate in their respective sports. The staff takes great pride in the individual attention paid to each student-athlete. The sports medicine staff is devoted to preventing injury, rapidly diagnosing and treating injury and maximizing athletic performance. The disciplines of athletic training, strength and conditioning, sports medicine, orthopedic sports medicine, optometry, nutrition, exercise physiology and psychology work in concert to provide comprehensive care for the student-athlete. Physician coverage is led by Dr. Jeffrey Anderson, the Director of Sports Medicine and Team Physician, Dr. Thomas Trojian. The Orthopedic Sports Medicine Specialists for the team include: Dr. Michael Joyce of the Orthopedic Sports Specialists in Glastonbury; Dr. Robert Arciero, Dr. Thomas DeBerardino, and Dr. Augustus Mazzocca of the New England Musculoskeletal Institute at the University of Dr. Jeffrey Anderson, M.D. Connecticut Health Center in Farmington. The Department of Sports Medicine works intimately with the Departments of Kinesiology and Nutritional Sciences on the University of Team Physician Connecticut campus. This working relationship affords the student-athletes with the input of several nationally recognized exercise scientists. This cooperation also keeps the sports medicine staff on the cutting edge of developments in the fields of human performance and sports nutrition. Members of the sports medicine staff are actively engaged in research that directly benefits the care of each student-athlete. The UConn Sports Medicine team is housed in state-of-the-art facilities in the Hugh S. Greer Field House and the Harry A. Gampel Pavilion, as well as a new and expanded sports medicine treatment center located in the Burton Family Football Complex. The Department of Sports Medicine at the University of Connecticut administers to the daily needs of 650 male and female intercollegiate student-athletes, who are a part of 24 different varsity programs. The Department of Sports Medicine at Connecticut plays a critical role in assuring that all UConn student-athletes have access to the best medical support and health care possible. Through patient care and ongoing research and education, the department continues to provide Husky teams a competitive edge from the medical perspective.

STRENGTH & CONDITIONING

///

The Strength and Conditioning staff, under the direction of Jerry Martin, provides services for all 24 of the University of Connecticut’s intercollegiate sports. UConn volleyball players have the use of two different weight rooms in the Harry A. Gampel Pavilion and Hugh S. Greer Field House. In all, there are over 8,000 square feet of weight training facilities available to all UConn athletes. The weight room in Gampel is a free weight facility and supplies the team areas in which to perform their power and Olympic lifts. The facility in the Greer Field House is fitted with more free weights so that the UConn players can incorporate circuit training, speed training and heavy negative workouts into their total strength program. Each program can be manipulated in order to fulfill the specific needs of the individual athlete. Specific testing is done to each student-athlete to monitor progress in strength, power, body composition, anaerobic conditioning and flexibility. These tests provide coaches and the medical staff with an accurate athletic program of each player.

THE AMERICAN ATHLETIC CONFERENCE Not entirely unlike the nation that provides its namesake, the American Athletic Conference was born from an ideal in which members with ambitious goals are provided with the means to succeed in their quests for excellence. With roots that extend to three conferences, the American Athletic Conference membership in 2013 – its debut season – consists of 10 institutions: the University of Central Florida, the University of Cincinnati, the University of Connecticut, the University of Houston, the University of Louisville, the University of Memphis, Rutgers University, Southern Methodist University, the University of South Florida and Temple University. All 10 schools offer women’s volleyball, allowing for each team to play every opponent twice. In 2014-15, East Carolina University, Tulane University and the University of Tulsa come aboard. The 2015-16 season sees the U.S. Naval Academy join the ranks in football only. The American, which operated as the BIG EAST Conference from 1979 to 2013, will immediately take a place at the forefront of Division I athletics, with schools that have played in a combined five Bowl Championship Series games, won four NCAA men’s basketball titles since 1999, and won eight NCAA women’s basketball championships since 1995. The 2013 season will mark the final year of a six-year arrangement with ESPN that gives The American national exposure on ABC television and the ESPN family of networks. ESPN, ESPN2 or ABC will carry a minimum of 19 American home football games each season. Championship Week in December includes three American games on either ABC, ESPN or ESPN2. At least four American games are featured on ESPN’s Thursday-night package. In addition, ESPN Regional Television will continue to produce and distribute its Game of the Week package to a nationally syndicated audience, reaching more than 30 million homes. Most of these games also will be available as part of the ESPN GamePlan subscription service. Finally, a minimum of five home games will be carried on ESPNU.

U.S. News World Report ranks UConn among the top 25 public universities in the nation. UConn’s School of Business is ranked among the Top 25 public undergraduate business programs in the U.S. according to U.S. News and World Report. The University has been selected as a member of Universitas 21, a preeminent international network of leading research-intensive universities in 15 countries. The Neag School of Education’s doctoral program in kinesiology ranks No. 1 in the nation, according to the American Academy of Kinesiology and Physical Education.

Next Generation Connecticut “Next Generation Connecticut” was signed into law this past summer and positions UConn to ascend the ranks of the world’s elite research universities, as its intellectual capital is put to work energizing the state’s innovation-based economy. The $1.5 billion construction component is an investment in building new scientific laboratories, purchasing advanced equipment, constructing new classrooms, and adding housing. The state will also invest $137 million in operating funds to hire hundreds of new faculty, and to expand the student body in STEM fields (science, technology, engineering, and math). The initiative is projected to bring in more than $270 million in new research dollars over 10 years, spur well over half a billion dollars in business activity, and support more than 4,000 permanent jobs, plus 30,000 construction jobs.

T his

UConn

More than 30,000 students enrolled, representing nearly every state in the nation and 98 countries. Average SAT scores for incoming freshmen at Storrs are up over 100 points since 1996 and are now 1226 (critical reading and math only). The 440 students UConn welcomed into its Honors Program in 2011 had an average SAT score of more than 1400. Minority students made up 26% of the 2012 incoming undergraduate class. Since 1995, 1,538 valedictorians and salutatorians have enrolled at all campuses. In fall 2012, 48 percent of freshmen entering the Storrs campus were ranked in the top 10 percent of their high school class and 84 percent were ranked in the top 25 percent of their class.

UConn continues to renew, rebuild and enhance our campuses through an unprecedented $2.8 billion, 20-year investment in the University’s infrastructure. UCONN 2000 has been the most ambitious publicly financed university building program in the country. Now in its 18th year, UCONN 2000 has invigorated the University’s living and learning environments, helped advance faculty research, and stimulated public and private investment. This investment revitalizes the state’s future by providing the means for the University to attract high-achieving students, prestigious faculty, and funding from public grants and private donors. The multibillion dollar facelift has facilitated UConn’s ascent to national prominence among public research universities.

The New Haven Open at Yale is a prominent part of the U.S. Open Tennis Series while Lime Rock Park in Lakeville has been in existence since 1957 and hosts events each summer as part of the American LeMans Series and the Rolex Sports Car Series. The Connecticut Sun of the WNBA and several minor league baseball and hockey teams are also part of the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sports scene.

Storrs Center:

A New Downtown

Our Campus is Connecticut In addition to the main campus in Storrs, the University of Connecticut has a number of other campuses and schools around the state, which truly makes the state into the campus. The UConn Health Center and John Dempsey Hospital is located in Farmington, just west of Hartford. Today, Bioscience Connecticut, an $864 million initiative, is transforming the campus of the UConn Health Center. Bioscience Connecticut is a forwardthinking plan to create thousands of construction and related jobs in the short-term and generate long-term, sustainable economic growth based on bioscience research, innovation, entrepreneurship and commercialization. It is a multifaceted plan that also includes initiatives to improve access to healthcare services in the region and beyond. Renovations have begun in the original research tower and work is underway to build the new outpatient care center and the new hospital tower. In addition, groundbreaking ceremonies were held in January for the new $1.1 billion Jackson Laboratory for Genomic Medicine, the first return on the state’s Bioscience Connecticut investment, which will be housed on the UConn Health Center campus. The Jackson initiative is a collaboration between the globally prominent Jackson Laboratory, UConn, the Health Center and leading academic and healthcare institutions in the region. The UConn School of Law is one of the leading public law schools in the country. Its campus, listed on the National Register of Historic Sites, is among the most beautiful of any law school in the United States. The newly-completed law library is perhaps the finest facility of its kind in the world. Two miles from the center of Hartford, the Law School is located in a neighborhood of large Victorian homes. UConn has long had an undergraduate campus in the Greater Hartford region and plans are now underway to relocate that campus to the center of downtown Hartford. The UConn campus in downtown Stamford is surrounded by a cluster of corporate headquarters including a number of Fortune 500 companies, such as Pitney-Bowes and Charter Communications. The UConn campus in Waterbury is housed in a new state-of the-art facility. Options exist to transfer to the Storrs campus after two years or earn a degree right in Waterbury. UConn’s “campus by the ocean” is located at Avery Point in the southern portion of the state in Groton. Avery Point is the home to the Connecticut Sea Grant Program in conjunction with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). Project Oceanography, and education program for middle school and high school students, is also on the Avery Point campus. The Torrington campus, located in the hills of the western portion of the state, is home to the famed Litchfield County Writers Program. The program attracts visits by some of the country’s most preeminent writers including Roxana Robinson and the late Madeline L’Engle and Arthur Miller.

• There are approximately 22,000 UConn graduates who live in New York City and the surrounding metropolitan area. • The New York Chapter of the UConn Alumni Association is the group’s fastest growing chapter. • In 2010-11, UConn men’s basketball was the most viewed Big East Conference team in New York City. A combined 1.35 million households watched UConn basketball games in the New York DMA that were televised on ESPN or ESPN2.

“A lot of people don’t understand what makes New York tick. The two schools with the biggest impact in the New York market have been Syracuse and Connecticut.

”

Former BIG EAST Commissioner Mike Tranghese, New York Times, March 11, 2013

• UConn’s five games in the BIG EAST tournament were watched by a combined 590,000 households in the New York DMA.

UConn and New York City The UConn Football Footprint In New York City • In a recent New York Times on-line story, UConn was the only former BIG EAST school listed among the top five most popular college football teams in both the New York and Boston DMAs.

SNY (SportsNet New York) Recognizes The Popularity Of The UConn Brand • UConn is the only university in the country whose football, men’s basketball and women’s basketball television programs have syndicated TV packages with the same regional sports network – SportsNet New York, which is also the television home of the New York Mets. A total of 38 UConn games during the 201213 academic year were shown by SNY, whose distribution is 14 million television households. SNY’s four-state regional footprint, which includes New York, New Jersey, Connecticut and Pennsylvania, is comprised of nine million TV households. Its national distribution through satellite service is five million TV homes. • SNY, with its headquarters located in midtown Manhattan, dedicates more than 650 hours of coverage annually to UConn Athletics, including live games, re-airs, previews/reviews, coaches’ shows, specials and features.

Director of Athletics

Warde Manuel W

arde J. Manuel, who has had a distinguished career in intercollegiate athletics that ranges from being a student-athlete to a director of athletics, became the Director of Athletics in March of 2011. Manuel, a 1990 graduate of the University of Michigan where he played both football and track and field, has most recently been the Director of Athletics at the University at Buffalo for six years. His first academic year of 2012-13 was a highly successful one for UConn teams, highlighted by the women’s basketball team winning the NCAA Championship. In addition, UConn teams from men’s soccer, field hockey and baseball all took part in NCAA tournament play while the women’s diving and men’s and women’s track and field programs were all represented in NCAA individual championships. Manuel also directed UConn’s acceptance into membership of Hockey East, the nation’s premier men’s ice hockey conference, as the Huskies begin play in the league in 2014-15. Ground was broken for the UConn Basketball Development Center in the spring of 2013 and the facility will open in 2014 to service both the Huskies’ men’s and women’s championship basketball teams. Manuel oversaw a coaching transition in men’s basketball with the retirement of Hall of Fame coach Jim Calhoun and the hiring of former Husky student-athlete, NBA player and UConn assistant coach Kevin Ollie. Manuel also hired new head coaches for the UConn men’s and women’s ice hockey programs. The UConn Division of Athletics once again had an outstanding rate performance in the NCAA Academic Progress Rate (APR) in 2013 as the men’s basketball team posted a 947 as Manuel has helped develop a comprehensive academic plan for all UConn programs. Each Husky team met the NCAA minimum requirement while most teams, a total of 20, scored 970 or better. In June of 2013, Manuel was one of 11 Division I ADs, who were named to Athletic Director Advisory Group to the NCAA leadership. The membership of this advisory group will meet periodically with NCAA leadership to provide feedback and perspective on issues that affect NCAA Division I members.

Manuel has already become a key leader in the American Athletic Conference and has been named a member of the league’s Finance Committee. Manuel led a 20-sport program at Buffalo, an institution that is a member of the prestigious American Association of Universities. Buffalo enjoyed an unparalleled period of success during his time there from an athletic, academic and community service perspective. From an academic standpoint, teams at Buffalo enjoyed incredible academic success. When Manuel arrived at UB, there were four programs - football, men’s basketball, wrestling, and baseball - that fell far below the NCAA Academic Progress Rate (APR) cut score of 925. With a focused academic plan, all four teams posted a four-year APR rate above the cut score and at the end of 2009-10, 10 of UB’s 20 sports had scores of 975 or above. Buffalo enjoyed great on-field success during Manuel’s time as the football team participated in the 2009 International Bowl and the men’s basketball team made postseason appearances in three of the past seven years. Olympic sports also thrived under Manuel’s leadership with accomplishments such as three-straight Dad Vail Regatta titles by the rowing team, six wrestlers earning spots at the 2011 NCAA Championship and the women’s tennis team making an appearance in the 2008 NCAA tournament. The sports of baseball and softball won a record number of games during his tenure and student-athletes earned All-American and allconference honors at record rates. Manuel was honored by Sports Business Journal as a 2008 national 40-Under-40 honoree after receiving the same honor from Business First of Buffalo in Fall of 2007. Manuel has served on a number of national and conference committees and boards. In September of 2011, he was one of only three Athletic Directors asked to serve on the Collegiate Model Rules committee, a working group of the Division I Committee on Academic Performance, charged with broad overview of the current NCAA Rules Manual. He also currently serves on the NCAA Division I Championships/ Sports Management Cabinet and served for four years as a member of the NCAA’s Academic Cabinet. During that time, he was selected as Chair of the NCAA Academic Eligibility & Compliance Transfer Ad Hoc Committee. He is a member of the Boards of the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics and the D1A Athletic Directors Association. He also serves as a member of the Council of Presidents Budget & Finance Committee and served for three years as the Chair of the MidAmerican Conference Director of Athletics Finance Committee. In June of 2007, Manuel accepted the Opportunity Award by all-time tennis great Billie Jean King, as Buffalo was recognized by the Women’s Sports Foundation as one of four “standout” colleges and universities in the nation for outstanding achievement in providing equitable athletic opportunities for its female student-athletes. Prior to his time at Buffalo, he was the assistant and associate director of athletics for the University of Michigan, where he oversaw that school’s football and men’s basketball programs. In February 1998, he was named an assistant athletic director at Michigan with responsibilities for overseeing operational facets of the university’s athletic program. He was named an associate athletic director in September 2000. Born May 22, 1968, Manuel is a native of New Orleans, who was a high school All-American football player and played for the University of Michigan under its legendary coach, Bo Schembechler. Manuel earned multiple letters and started at defensive end in his sophomore year. His football career was cut short by a neck injury and he subsequently earned two letters on the Wolverines’ track and field team. After graduating from Michigan, Manuel was coordinator of the university’s Wade H. McCree, Jr., Incentive Scholars Program from June 1990 to August 1993. The program is a partnership with The President’s Council of State Universities and Detroit Public Schools that helps students prepare for higher education at public universities in Michigan. He subsequently worked briefly as an academic advisor with the Georgia Tech Athletic Association before being named assistant athletic director of academic affairs. In the course of working on a PhD in social work and psychology at Michigan, he earned a master’s degree in social work in 1993 and an MBA from Michigan’s Ross School of Business in April 2005. Manuel and his wife, Chrislan, have a daughter, Emma (18), who is entering her sophomore year at UConn, and a son, Evan (14).

In addition to all that the city of Hartford and the state of Connecticut has to offer, the region within two hours of Storrs is ripe with cultural and entertainment possibilities. SPRINGFIELD (47 miles) The Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame is located less than an hour from Storrs in Springfield, Mass., just minutes from the YMCA where Dr. James Naismith invented the game in 1891. A must-see for any fan of the hardwood, the Hall of Fame reopened in the fall of 2002 in a $45 million home just off of Interstate 91 in Springfield. The pinnacle of any basketball career, the hall’s long list of inductees now includes UConn men’s basketball coach Jim Calhoun, a 2005 inductee, and women’s basketball coach Geno Auriemma, a 2006 inductee. Once you finish your tour of the Hall of Fame, Springfield’s neighboring suburb of Agawam is the home of Six Flags New England, the region’s largest amusement park.

NEW YORK CITY (142 miles) The United States’ largest city and “the media capital of the world,” New York City is located approximately two hours from Storrs and offers a wide array of cultural opportunities. From the glitter of Times Square, to the vast expanse of Central Park, to the majestic skyline, New York City is an incomparable destination and one that can be easily reached by the Metro-North train lines that run into southern Connecticut. UConn students also enjoy the city’s active sporting landscape. The New York metro area also boasts 10 major professional sports franchises, including the NFL’s New York Jets and Giants, Major League Baseball’s New York Mets and Yankees, the NBA’s New York Knicks and Brooklyn Nets, the NHL’s New York Islanders, New York Rangers and New Jersey Devils and the WNBA’s New York Liberty.

Storrs

BOSTON (86 miles) The birthplace of the American Revolution, Boston’s historic Freedom Trail is a living history textbook, covering everything from the Battle of Bunker Hill to the midnight ride of Paul Revere. Meanwhile, the city blends its old world charm with a cosmopolitan new world attitude that is evidenced by some of the trendier shops and restaurants that line both historic Faneuil Hall Marketplace and the Back Bay’s Newbury Street. One of the world’s foremost centers of education, Boston is home to over 50 colleges and universities; perhaps the entire world’s most concentrated collection of colleges. The greater Boston area also includes the summer beach resorts on Cape Cod and the islands of Nantucket and Martha’s Vineyard. A hub of sporting activity, the 2004 and 2007 World Series Champion Boston Red Sox have called fabled Fenway Park home since 1912. The 2008 NBA Champion Boston Celtics and the 2011 Stanley Cup Champions Boston Bruins also call Beantown home, while the 2002, 2004 and 2005 Super Bowl Champion New England Patriots and MLS’ New England Revolution play outside of the city in Foxboro’s Gillette Stadium.

PROVIDENCE (51 miles) Rhode Island’s capital city shows that one of the nation’s smallest states also has plenty to offer its visitors. The multi-cultural capital city, which dates back to 1636, is the Ocean State’s centerpiece. The best known hamlet on the Rhode Island shore, the ocean town of Newport is world famous for its mansions and is a popular vacation destination for those seeking aquatic activities. Newport’s renowned music festival is also a well-attended annual event.
