2014 UConn Volleyball

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 2014 season marks the 21st year in Gampel for the UConn volleyball team, which has compiled an impressive overall record of 190-74 since beginning play in the Pavilion in 1993. This season, Connecticut will play at least 16 matches in front of a home crowd at Gampel Pavilion. The home slate includes American Athletic Conference matches against all nine of UConn’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.

NEW MAN AT THE HELM UConn Volleyball has a new face at the helm of the program. Kris Grunwald was named the head coach on April 2, 2014 after serving as an assistant coach at Auburn for the last two seasons.

Grunwald, who has a coaching career that dates back to 1991, led Auburn to a 41-20 record as head coach in 1998-99 and helped pace the Tigers to eight winning seasons during his two stints. As a player at George Mason from 1988-91, Grunwald was a three-time Honorable Mention AllAmerican and three-time All-East First Team performer. In the Patriot career records book, he is second in kills (1,764), fourth in digs (676) and seventh in blocks (394).

2014 Season Preview

PREPARING TO DO BATTLE East Carolina, Tulsa, and Tulane are set to join The American in 2014 as the Huskies prepare to face each of these teams twice in conference play. There are four teams on the schedule that the Huskies have never played before, including ECU and Tulsa. The slate features 20 conference matchups via home-and-home series with each league member, as well as 12

non-conference contests spread throughout four in-season tournaments.

WELCOME TO THE BLOCK PARTY The Huskies’ 2014 roster features two of the most prolific blockers in the American Athletic Conference. Juniors Erika Thomas (Ocoee, Fla.) and Immanuella Anagu (Culver City, Calif.) combined for 265 total blocks in 2013 and helped lead the Huskies to a 2.33 block/set mark that ranked fourth in the conference and 94th in the nation.

PUTTING IN THE WORK Senior libero Brianna Datti (Durham, N.H.) etched her name into the UConn history books last season, finishing with the sixth-most digs in Husky single season history (541). Datti’s 127 sets played was also the seventh highest mark in UConn history. The Husky standout needs just 121 digs in 2014 to crack into UConn’s top-10 all-time leaders and can reach the top-five with 526. In addition to her work on defense, Datti led the 2013 squad with a career-best 29 service aces.

STAYING TOGETHER The Huskies return 12 letterwinners from last year’s 14-19 squad and are anchored by five seniors. Overall, seven of UConn’s 15 players will be upperclassmen during the 2014 season.

FRESH FACES UConn’s 12 returning letterwinners will be bolstered by Grunwald’s strong incoming three-member freshman class. The balanced crop of rookies includes middle blocker Tosin Adeniyi (Springfield, Ill.), and outsider hitters Kenya Cason (Columbus, Ohio) and Katherine Towslee (Woodinville, Wash.). Each comes to Storrs after decorated prep and club careers and will look to make immediate impacts for the Huskies. Transfers Jessika Long (Sandy, Utah) and Rebecca Rivera (Mississauga, Ontario) will look to make a mark as they battle for time as the setter.

K r i s G r u n wa l d Head Coach | First Season George Mason ’91, Florida State ‘93 41-20 Overall Head Coaching Record | 1996 SEC Western Division Champion

Kris Grunwald, who spent 2012 and 2013 as an assistant coach at Auburn and was the Tigers’ head coach from 1998-99, was named the head coach of the University of Connecticut volleyball team on April 2, 2014.

A native of Germantown, N.Y., Grunwald was an assistant coach at Auburn from 1994-97 then took over the head coaching reigns for two years. As an assistant coach, he led Auburn to an SEC Western Division championship in 1996. In his two years back at Auburn as an assistant coach, the Tigers had a 17-13 mark in ‘12 and was 1911 in ‘13.

Auburn has had a winning record in all eight years that Grunwald had been on the Tiger staff. “I am incredibly excited to become the head volleyball coach at UConn and I consider it an amazing opportunity,” said Grunwald. “I am looking forward to being part of this amazing University with its rich tradition in athletics and such a strong academic reputation. I think we have a very talented roster of current student-athletes in this program already and I look forward to getting to know them and develop their skills. As a native of the Northeast, I think this school and this program is a great fit for me.”

Mason career records book, he is second in kills (1,764), fourth in digs (676) and seventh in blocks (394).

He moved on to Florida State for his graduate work where he served as an assistant coach for three seasons (1991-93). He assumed a larger role as the recruiting coordinator when he joined the Auburn staff as an assistant in 1994.

Grunwald was the compliance service coordinator at Michigan from 2000-02, assisting with student-athlete certification, eligibility and NCAA rules interpretation. He returned to coaching in 2002 as an assistant coach at Mississippi, a position he held through the 2005 season.

From his spot with the Rebels, Grunwald became the associate head coach at Morehead State until accepting the position at Arkansas prior to the 2008 season.

Grunwald is a 1991 graduate of George Mason University with a bachelor’s degree in mathematics. He earned his master’s degree in mathematics education at Florida State in 1993.

“I am very pleased to welcome Kris to our UConn family and am extremely excited about the direction of our volleyball program,” said UConn Director of Athletics Warde Manuel. “Kris brings a wide variety of collegiate athletics experience to our program, including many years of coaching the sport at the highest level. I believe that Kris will be an excellent mentor for both the athletic and academic success of our volleyball student-athletes.”

Grunwald returned to Auburn in 2012 after spending the previous four years as an assistant at Arkansas. Under Grunwald’s leadership as head coach, Auburn amassed a 41-20 record over two seasons, posting a 22-win campaign in 1998 and 19 wins the following season.

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 Connecticut Health Center in Farmington.

Support Staff The Department of Sports Medicine works intimately with the Departments of Kinesiology and Nutritional Sciences on the University of Sports Medicine 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 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.

2014 Media Guide

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 2014-15 consists of 11 institutions: the University of Central Florida, the University of Cincinnati, East Carolina University, the University of Connecticut, the University of Houston, the University of Memphis, the University of South Florida, Southern Methodist University, Temple University, Tulane University and the University of Tulsa.

The 2015-16 season sees the U.S. Naval Academy join the ranks in football only.

Under the leadership of commissioner Mike Aresco, The American, which operated as the Big East Conference from 1979 to 2013, has immediately taken a place at the forefront of Division I athletics, with schools that have played in four Bowl Championship Series games, won four NCAA men’s basketball titles since 1999, and won nine NCAA women’s basketball championships since 1995.

The American Athletic Conference holds television partnerships with ESPN and CBS Sports which will give the conference unprecedented national exposure.

The football portion of the contract, which begins in the 2014 season, calls for nearly 90 percent of conference-controlled games on national broadcast or national cable platforms. The first American Athletic Conference Football Championship, which will be played in 2015, will be carried either on ABC or ESPN on Championship Saturday.

The American Athletic Conference administers to its membership from a state-of-the-art office located in Providence, R.I. The location of the conference headquarters – just steps from the city’s Amtrak station and 10 minutes from T.F. Green International Airport – gives the conference easy access to its member schools.

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 2013 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 have been announced to relocate that campus to downtown Hartford in the former home of the The Hartford Times. That campus is expected to open in 2017.

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.

“If You Can Make It There, You’ll Make It Anywhere” The University of Connecticut does make it in New York City and has a strong foothold on the entire Metropolitan Region. When the Huskies are in town – the “city that never sleeps” certainly takes notice.

“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

The UConn men’s basketball team has long considered Madison Square Garden a home-away-from-home. This was proved yet against when the Huskies won the NCAA East Region there in 2014 en route to a national championship. UConn fans dominated the MSG crowd and filled the city’s hotels and restaurants with Husky pride.

UConn football makes its debut in New York City when the Huskies play Army at Yankee Stadium on Nov. 8.

UConn’s Kevin Ollie, Warde Manuel and Geno Auriemma ring the opening bell of the New York Stock Exchange.

UConn and New York City There are approximately 22,000 UConn graduates who live in New York City and the surrounding metropolitan area and the New York Chapter of the UConn Alumni Association is the group’s fastest growing chapter.

The UConn Football Footprint In New York City In a 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 SportsNet New York (SNY) is the New York TV home of the New York Mets and UConn is their home college sports team. The network devotes over hundreds of programming hours a year to UConn men’s basketball, women’s basketball and football.

The World Famous Metropolitan Opera in New York City has an exclusive education partnership with UConn, providing internships and other benefits for its Fine Arts students.

President Susan Herbst Dr.

Susan Herbst is the 15th president of the University of Connecticut and began her duties at the school in June of 2011.

Prior to coming to her position in Storrs, Herbst was the executive vice chancellor and chief academic officer for The University System of Georgia.

Herbst is the first woman to be selected as the University’s president since the school’s founding in 1881.

In her position with The University System of Georgia, Herbst led 15 university presidents and oversaw the academic missions for all 35 public universities in Georgia. She worked closely with the system’s Board of Regents on all aspects of finance and higher education policy for the state. The system has more than 311,000 students, roughly 10,000 faculty members, and a budget of more than $6 billion a year. She had been with the Georgia system since 2007.

In addition to those duties, Herbst continued to hold a faculty appointment as a professor of public policy at Georgia Tech.

She is the author of many scholarly journal articles and books, including her most recent book about incivility in American politics, Rude Democracy, released in September 2010.

Herbst was previously provost and executive vice president for academic affairs at SUNY-Albany from 2005 to 2007, and also served as acting president of the school for a year. She also served as the dean of the College of Liberal Arts at Temple University from 2003 to 2005.

Herbst joined Northwestern University as an assistant professor in 1989 and remained there until 2003. There, she rose to become chair of the political science department and associate dean for faculty affairs.

She received her BA in political science from Duke University in 1984 and her Ph.D. in communication theory and research from the University of Southern California Annenberg School for Communications in Los Angeles in 1989.

Herbst was born in New York City and raised in the mid-Hudson Valley town of Peekskill, N.Y. She and her husband, Doug Hughes, have two children: Daniel Hughes and Becky Hughes.

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 at the University of Connecticut in March of 2012.

Manuel, a 1990 graduate of the University of Michigan where he played both football and track and field, had 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, women’s lacrosse 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.

This success more than continued into the 2013-14 academic year as UConn won three national championships for the first time in school history – men’s basketball, women’s basketball and field hockey. In addition, the men’s soccer team advanced to the NCAA quarterfinals.

UConn was just one of four schools nationally that finished in the top ten of the Capital One Cup on both the men’s and women’s side.

Manuel 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 Champions Center in the spring of 2013 and the facility opened in the summer of 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.

In December of 2013, Manuel hired former Notre Dame defensive coordinator Bob Diaco as UConn’s new football coach.

During his tenure, Manuel also hired new head coaches for the UConn men’s and women’s ice hockey, volleyball, women’s track and field and softball program.

The UConn Division of Athletics once again had an outstanding rate performance in the NCAA Academic Progress Rate (APR) in 2014 as all three national championship teams posted a perfect 1000 single-year score while field hockey also had a perfect 1000 four-year score. A total of 14 UConn teams posted perfect single-year scores of 1000 and five had multi-year scores of 1000.

The men’s basketball team has had APR scores of 978, 947 and 1000 in the past three years as Manuel has helped develop a comprehensive academic plan for all UConn programs.

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 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 200910, 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 all-conference 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 Mid-American 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 (19), who is in her junior year at UConn, and a son, Evan (15).

Close to Storrs 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)

NEW YORK CITY (142 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.

The largest city in the country and the “media capital of the world” is a UConn city. New York City is located approximately two hours from Storrs and when the Huskies are in town, they make their presence known. UConn took over Madison Square Garden in March 2014 when the Huskies won the NCAA East Regional on their way to the national championship. The Huskies make their football debut in the Big Apple this year when they play Army in November at the new Yankee Stadium. From the glimmer of Times Square, to the vast expanse of Central Park, to the majestic skyline, New York City can be easily reached by the Metro-North train lines that run into southern Connecticut. The metro New York area also boasts 10 major professional sports franchises.

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, 2007 and 2013 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.

J. Robert Donnelly Husky Heritage Sports Museum

T

he sights and sounds of more than a century of intercollegiate athletics competition come alive during a visit to the J. Robert Donnelly Husky Heritage Sports Museum.

Located in the UConn Alumni Center in the heart of the University of Connecticut’s main campus in Storrs, the Husky Heritage Sports Museum is the ultimate library documenting the wide-ranging successes of Connecticut’s athletic programs.

The state-of-the-art design and layout of the 2,700 square foot Husky Heritage Sports Museum, named after benefactor and 1940 Connecticut basketball and football captain J. Robert (Bob) Donnelly (shown above with wife M.J.), vividly captures all of the energy, excitement and enthusiasm that is associated with “Huskymania”. Donnelly passed away on Sept. 26, 2005.

The visitors’ UConn experience begins with the University of Connecticut “National Champions” Gallery. This unique museum addition, located in the entrance foyer of the Husky Heritage Sports Museum, was unveiled in December of 2004 and will serve as a permanent tribute to all University of Connecticut varsity teams that climbed to the mountaintop and earned the right to be called National Champions.

Currently, a total of 17 national champion squads, representing four different UConn sports, have team photos and national championship logos on display in the National Champions gallery.

Included in the National Champions Gallery is the unbeaten 1948 men’s soccer team of Coach John Squires, the 1981 and 1985 UConn women’s field hockey teams of Coach Diane Wright, the 2013 field hockey team of Coach Nancy Stevens, the 1981 men’s soccer team of Coach Joe Morrone, the 2000 men’s soccer team of Coach Ray Reid, the eight national championship women’s basketball teams of Coach Geno Auriemma (1995, 2000, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2009, 2010, 2013, 2014), the 1999, 2004 and 2011 UConn men’s basketball teams of Coach Jim Calhoun, and the 2014 UConn men’s basketball team of Coach Kevin Ollie.

Upon entering the Husky Heritage Sports Museum, visitors are greeted by a full figure statue of Jonathan, the legendary mascot of all Husky athletic teams.

Oversized banners proudly hang from the ceiling, displaying action images that feature 88 of Connecticut’s All-American stars representing 17 different intercollegiate sports.

A tour of the various sections of the Husky Heritage Sports Museum is a walk down memory lane for long-time followers of Connecticut athletics.

For fans just becoming acquainted with UConn’s tradition of excellence, the various themes and areas of the museum, when woven together, narrate a complete and compelling sport-by-sport story line. The growth and development of Connecticut athletics is traced via text, photographs and select artifacts from its humble beginnings in the 1890s to its present day ranking among the elite major college athletic programs in the nation.

Included among the “must see” memorabilia in the Husky Heritage Sports Museum main concourse are the 1981 and 2000 NCAA National Championship Men’s Soccer trophies; the 1981 and 1985 NCAA National Championship

Women’s Field Hockey trophies; the 1950s era baseball gloves belonging to Connecticut’s three Dropo brothers-including Walt Dropo’s first baseman’s mitt when he was the American League Rookie of the Year with the Boston Red Sox in 1950; the 1935 Ramnapping Trophy, awarded annually to the winner of the Connecticut-Rhode Island football game; a 1931 football signed by the entire Connecticut squad; team photos of Connecticut’s first men’s (1901) and women’s (1902) basketball squads; and the Waterford Crystal NCAA National Championship trophies won by UConn Women’s Basketball (1995, 2000, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2009, 2010, 2013, 2014) and UConn Men’s Basketball (1999, 2004, 2011, 2014).

The pinnacle achievement of UConn’s 13 NCAA National Championships in both men’s and women’s basketball is preserved and promoted in a unique circular sanctuary–the Connecticut Basketball Rotunda, a gift of Herb and Marcia Dunn.

Championship trophies and related artifacts that chronicle UConn’s men’s and women’s national titles are prominently featured in the rotunda, as are life-size cutouts of Husky All-American stars Ray Allen and Rebecca Lobo.

Celebratory paintings of head coaches Jim Calhoun and Geno Auriemma are on display along with a one-of-a-kind watercolor team photo of the 25-member UConn Men’s Basketball All-Century team.

Also within the Husky Heritage Sports Museum experience is a video wall featuring a 65-inch high definition television. Visitors can view numerous historical moments in UConn history as captured on a variety of highlight films and documentaries.

Each display case of memorabilia and every historical photograph located within the walls of the J. Robert Donnelly Husky Heritage Sports Museum describe a portion of a truly remarkable story.

That story of the teams, the coaches, and student-athletes who have been part of the rich history that constitutes the University of Connecticut athletic experience is now being told on a daily basis at UConn’s Husky Heritage Sports Museum.

In addition, there is a display on the history of football at UConn – from its starts in 1897, to its time in Division I-AA and now as a team that has played in a Bowl Championship Series game.

The J. Robert Donnelly Husky Heritage Sports Museum is open free of charge to the general public during regular business hours (8 a.m. to 5 p.m.) of the UConn Alumni Center.

Since the Husky Heritage Sports Museum opened in January of 2002, several important artifacts have been donated from UConn loyalists to help expand the scope of the Connecticut Athletics storyline.

The University of Connecticut Division of Athletics continues to seek additional memorabilia/artifacts to help expand the story of the UConn Huskies. Anyone wishing to donate specific Connecticut Athletics items to the J. Robert Donnelly Husky Heritage Sports Museum should contact: Tim Tolokan, Phone: (860) 486-1500, e-mail: tim.tolokan@uconn.edu.
