COMM U N I T Y S E RV I CE

Every year, the UTSA Soccer team has devoted its time not just on the field, but off the field as well. They are involved in several community service events such as the Habitat for Humanity, the Wounded Warrior Project, Haven for Hope, Roadrunner Day Move-In, the Medina Children’s Clothing Drive, UTSA summer camps and delivering turkey to local food shelters. Their support for the community is a way to not only promote UTSA Athletics but UTSA to the city of San Antonio. The soccer team has won the UTSA Director’s Cup, given to the program that best exemplifies service in the community, three of the last five years.


UTSA


A b o ut UTSA The University of Texas at San Antonio was founded on June 5, 1969, by the Texas Legislature to be a “university of the first class.”

THIS IS

UTSA serves the San Antonio metropolitan area and the broader region of South Texas through programs and services offered from its four campuses: Main Campus, Downtown Campus, Hemisfair Park Campus and Park West Campus. With nearly 31,000 students and more than 600 tenured and tenure-track faculty, UTSA is the third-largest component in The University of Texas System. UTSA offers more than 140 degree programs at the bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral levels in the colleges of Architecture, Business, Education and Human Development, Engineering, Liberal and Fine Arts, Public Policy and Sciences, as well as the Honors College, University College and Graduate School. The university’s four campuses provide access and opportunity for large numbers of historically underserved students. More than half of UTSA’s students come from groups underrepresented in higher education. Many students are the first in their families to attend a college or university.

Dr. Ricardo Romo, a San Antonio native, became UTSA’s fifth president in 1999 and is the first Hispanic president in the university’s history.

UTSA has a total of 59 endowed academic positions, a measure of academic excellence.

In 1973 construction began on UTSA’s original campus, now known as the Main Campus, on a 600-acre tract in the rolling foothills of San Antonio’s northwest side

In addition to the educational advantages UTSA offers, its economic impact directly and indirectly produces 1.2 billion in annual business revenues and supports an estimated 15,720 jobs in the San Antonio metropolitan statistical area. UTSA’s research specialties include health, cyber security, energy, sustainability, and human and social development. Source: UTSA Office of University Communications

A FOCUS ON Academic Services M i s s i o n S tat e m e n t Team Academics was established in order to provide academic services for student-athletes. We provide the necessary academic support services for all studentathletes to be successful in the classroom and pursue an undergraduate degree while competing as an athlete. The center is dedicated to the academic and personal development of all student-athletes. Consistent with the mission of the University of Texas at San Antonio, the Athletics Department is committed to provide an environment in which student-athletes can be successful academically, athletically and socially. In doing so, the department dedicates itself to absolute compliance with the rules of the University of Texas System, the university, the Southland Conference and the National Collegiate Athletic Association.

V i s i o n S tat e m e n t The UTSA Athletics Department will be successful in its mission when … • Student-athletes achieve academically and compete athletically at the highest level and are prepared with skills for life. • It achieves a level of social responsibility, honesty and integrity higher than is expected by the public and is required by laws, policies, guidelines and rules. • Athletics is the focal point for school identity, pride and spirit among students, faculty, staff, alumni and the surrounding community. • The community benefits from public service, affordable entertainment and economic growth derived from athletics.

Academic Success UTSA student-athletes have earned numerous academic awards during the past decade. A league-best 27 Roadrunners were named Southland Conference Student-Athlete of the Year in their respective sports, the conference’s top honor for academic and athletics success. UTSA has had 16 student-athletes chosen as an Academic All-American, one of the top honors that can be bestowed upon a collegiate athlete, while 34 have earned Academic All-District accolades since 2003. In the last 10 years, more than 800 student-athletes have earned Southland and Western Athletic Conference academic honors.

STRENGTH & CONDITIONING UTSA student-athletes are running faster and getting stronger thanks to a commitment to an enhanced strength and conditioning program and a new weight room.

MISSION STATEMENT

The UTSA Strength & Conditioning Department provides athletes the means by which they can train consistently, sensibly and systematically over designated periods of time in a safe, clean and professional environment to help prevent injury and improve athletics performance.

PHILOSOPHY

The philosophy of the University of Texas at San Antonio strength & conditioning program adheres strictly to the three proven scientific principles of adaptation ‌ Specificity The transfer of a training adaptation to a gain in competition performance. Overload Adaptation takes place when the magnitude of training is greater than normal and is achieved by prescribing the correct number of sets, repetitions and intensity of effort. The primary focus is the muscular and energy systems’ adaptation to overload. Periodization Training phases must be planned so that speed, agility, power and endurance will peak during the most important competitions.

“Today is another outstanding day to be a Roadrunner. We are very excited about our new partnership with Conference USA. It is a great fit for us, and it is a significant step forward for the University and the entire city of San Antonio.” — UTSA President Dr. Ricardo Romo

“We are pleased to welcome UTSA to Conference USA. They are an amazing University in a very dynamic and vibrant city. Without a doubt, they will be a good fit for us. What is truly impressive is the way they launched their football program, which is a tribute to the strong leadership in place.” — Conference USA Commissioner Britton Banowsky

UTSA Director of Athletics Lynn Hickey, UTSA President Dr. Ricardo Romo and Chairman of the Greater San Antonio Chamber of Commerce Football Task Force John Montford announced the University’s move into Conference USA in a press conference on May 4, 2012.

From its beginning in 1995, Conference USA’s dedication to excellence has been the league’s guiding principle and remains a common thread today and for a promising future. Throughout the changes during the C-USA history, the conference has held onto its strong foundation that reflects the league’s national presence. These 16 schools have compiled numerous athletic and academic achievements. Additionally, the C-USA footprint will grow by nearly 20 percent, while providing the geography that allows for a divisional scheduling model that will be beneficial to the student-athletes, fan-friendly and cost effective. Conference USA sponsors competition in 20 sports - nine for men (baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, soccer, tennis and indoor and outdoor track and field) and 11 for women (basketball, cross country, golf, rowing, softball, soccer, swimming and diving, tennis, indoor and outdoor track and field and volleyball). The league sponsors numerous academic awards, including the Commissioner’s Honor Roll and the Commissioner’s Academic Medal, indicative of outstanding achievement in the classroom, in addition to sport specific AllAcademic teams. C-USA annually awards 12 postgraduate scholarships, along with the Sport Academic Award, Scholar Athletes of the Year and the Institutional Academic Excellence Award. Conference USA also added a Spirit of Service Award, recognizing student-athletes three times a year for a combination of significant community service efforts, good academic standing and participation in their elected sport. SUCCESS ON THE PLAYING FIELD Conference USA performers have achieved great success in competition, placing the league among the top conferences in the nation. Football • 72 teams have earned bowl bids • Member of the Bowl Championship Series • Bowl tie-ins with the AutoZone Liberty Bowl, Beef ‘O’ Brady’s St. Petersburg Bowl, Bell Helicopter Armed Forces Bowl, Heart of Dallas Bowl, Military Bowl, R+L Carriers New Orleans Bowl and Sheraton Hawai’i Bowl Men’s Basketball • Consistently rated as one of the top basketball leagues in the country • 108 postseason teams (50 NCAA, 42 NIT, 8 CBI, 8 CIT) • One National Championship title game appearance • Three Final Four teams • Seven Elite Eight NCAA Tournament teams • One NIT Champion and four NIT semifinalists • Inaugural CBI Champion • CIT Champion Women’s Basketball • 48 NCAA Tournament appearances • 43 WNIT appearances • One team in the NCAA Sweet 16 • Two WNIT semifinalists • One WBI Champion

Baseball • 58 NCAA appearances • Six College World Series appearances (2009, 2008, 2007, 2006, 2005 and 2001) • 14 Super Regional appearances • Has produced at least four NCAA teams in nine of the last 12 seasons In addition, 37 volleyball teams, 67 men’s and women’s soccer teams and 39 softball teams have earned NCAA Tournament bids. C-USA has sent three men’s soccer teams to the NCAA College Cup, three softball teams to the Women’s College World Series and three volleyball teams to the Sweet 16. The league has also had nine national champions in NCAA track and field competition, one national champion in diving and numerous NCAA individual and team competitors in cross country, golf, swimming, tennis and track and field. Overall, Conference USA teams and individuals have made more than 700 NCAA appearances. SUCCESS OFF THE FIELD C-USA institutions are among the nation’s best in academic performance among studentathletes, bolstered by the fact that student-athletes at league schools have a higher graduation rate than the general student population. Among C-USA’s 5,000 student-athletes, there are champions off the playing field as well. In 18 years, 176 student-athletes earned national Capital One Academic All-America honors, while 618 were named All-District. In addition, more than 26,000 student-athletes have been named to the Commissioner’s Honor Roll or received the Commissioner’s Academic Medal, indicative of outstanding achievement in the classroom. C-USA ON TV C-USA enjoys significant television exposure through partnerships with FOX Sports Media Group, CBS Sports Network and ESPN. The multi-tiered selection process that is rooted in partnering with all three networks has substantially increased the number of national and regional appearances for football, men’s and women’s basketball, and all other conference sports. As one the largest FBS conferences in 2013, C-USA membership will include institutions in 12 of the Top 65 television markets, eight in the Top 40 and four in the Top 25 media markets according to Nielson. C-USA home markets next year will include more than 14.5 million TV households, a 43 percent increase from a year ago. C-USA DIGITAL NETWORK The C-USA Digital Network officially launched in August of 2011. Network programming includes live streaming of nontelevised events, video on demand, a weekly C-USA studio show, podcasting, regularseason and championship event highlights and conference-produced feature stories. In its first year, 1,164 events were streamed live and 8,126 videos were posted and available on the C-USA Digital Network, and that number just keeps growing. Monthly and yearly subscriptions offer fans access to events offered on all of the C-USA member institution’s athletic websites as well as C-USA network programming.

C-USA IN THE COMMUNITY The conference’s current footprint is concentrated with 16 members in nine states and a combined area population of nearly 17 million. With a commitment to community involvement, the conference developed several initiatives to maintain strong ties in C-USA cities, as well as with fans and alumni across the country. C-USA schools also place a priority on giving back to their communities through volunteer service with local and national organizations. Individually, student-athletes are recognized each season through the Spirit of Service award. GOVERNANCE Conference USA has significant representation in the NCAA governance structure. The Presidents of the member institutions serve as the league’s Board of Directors. A PROUD HISTORY Conference USA was formed in 1995 and quickly emerged as one of the nation’s top conferences. The conference unveiled its name, logo and commissioner April 24, 1995 in Chicago. The league’s charter members included Charlotte, Cincinnati, DePaul, Houston, Louisville, Marquette, Memphis, Saint Louis, Southern Miss, Tulane, UAB and USF. Eleven of the institutions began athletic participation in 1995, while Houston joined competition in the fall of 1996. The league’s headquarters were established in Chicago and, after nine years, relocated to the current office in Irving, Texas. Britton Banowsky was named Commissioner in October 2002, succeeding Mike Slive, the league’s first commissioner. C-USA added East Carolina (September, 1996) and the United States Military Academy (March, 1997) as football members. ECU began league competition in 1997; Army in 1998 and UAB began football play in 1999. The league added TCU and ECU (1999) for all sports and they began competition in 2001. USF started C-USA football in 2003. Marshall, Rice, SMU, Tulsa, UCF and UTEP became full-time members of Conference USA in 2005. Conference USA officially got a new look on July 1, 2013, while maintaining the same commitment to excellence, integrity and leadership in athletics, academics and in our communities. Eight institutions, including the return of charter member Charlotte along with FIU, Florida Atlantic, Louisiana Tech, Middle Tennessee, North Texas, Old Dominion and UTSA, joined with East Carolina, Marshall, Rice, Southern Miss, Tulane, Tulsa, UAB and UTEP.

Dr. Ricardo Romo U niversity P resident (Texas • 1967)

R

icardo Romo is the fifth president of The University of Texas at San Antonio, which was named by the Texas Legislature as an emerging Tier One research university and a leader in providing access to excellence in teaching, research and community outreach. Under his leadership, student enrollment has risen to nearly 31,000, representing 68 percent growth in enrollment. The university has added numerous programs and facilities to enhance student life and expand its research capacity. With total research expenditures of $56.8 million and total expenditures of $79.4 million for fiscal year 2011, it represents a six-fold increase in expenditures during Romo’s tenure. A San Antonio native who grew up on the city’s West Side, Romo graduated from Fox Tech High School before attending the University of Texas at Austin on a track scholarship. At UT Austin, he was the first Texan to run the mile in less than four minutes, a record that lasted 41 years. He earned a bachelor’s degree in education from UT Austin (1967) and holds a master’s degree in history from Loyola Marymount University (1970). Additionally, Romo earned a Ph.D. in history from the University of California, Los Angeles (1975). A nationally respected urban historian, Romo is the author of “East Los Angeles: History of a Barrio,” now in its ninth printing (one in Spanish). Romo began his academic career teaching social studies (1967-1970) at Franklin High School in Los Angeles. He went on to teach at the University of California at San Diego (1975-1979) and the University of Texas at Austin (1980-1999). He was a visiting professor at University of California, Berkeley in 1985 and a visiting scholar with the Stanford University Center for Advanced Studies in Behavioral Sciences (1989-1990). In 1993, he became vice provost for undergraduate education at UT Austin before becoming president of UTSA in 1999. Romo has received numerous awards and recognitions including 2006 Outstanding Friar Alumnus from the UT Austin Friar Society and the Isabel la Catolica award, the highest award given to non-Spanish subjects, bestowed upon him in 2007 by King Juan Carlos of Spain. In 2008, Romo received the Distinguished Alumnus Award from the Texas Exes Alumni Association. In 2010, he received the San Antonio North Chamber Gov. Dolph Briscoe Salute to Excellence Award. In 2011, Romo was presented the Council for Advancement and Support of Education (CASE) Chief Executive Leadership Award for transforming UTSA from a regional campus into an emerging Tier One research university.

Lynn Hickey D irector

of

A thletics

(Ouachita Baptist • 1973)

L

ynn Hickey has made student-athlete welfare one of her top priorities while leading the UTSA Athletics Department to new heights. Under Hickey’s direction since 2000, UTSA has captured three conference commissioner’s cups and a pair of league all-sports trophies while consistently winning both team and individual academic and athletics awards in all 17 sports sponsored by the university. One of Hickey’s dreams to lead UTSA to the upper echelon of Division I Athletics was realized on Nov. 11, 2010, when the university received and accepted an invitation to join the Western Athletic Conference (WAC). The department claimed the 2012-13 WAC Commissioner’s Cup on the strength of league championships by the men’s indoor track & field and baseball teams in its first and only year in the conference. Hickey’s long-term goal of placing UTSA in a major conference was reached when Conference USA extended an invitation on May 4, 2012. The Roadrunners moved all 17 sports into that league on July 1, 2013. Hickey has overseen the addition of three sports during her tenure. Women’s golf and women’s soccer were added in 2005 and 2006, respectively, and both programs have emerged as annual league championship contenders. On Dec. 18, 2008, UTSA’s Athletics Initiative Business Plan was approved by the UT System Board of Regents, granting permission to start a football program. Hickey made a splash with the hiring of the first-ever head football coach, as two-time National Coach of the Year Larry Coker was introduced on March 6, 2009. The program kicked off its first season against Northeastern State on Sept. 3, 2011, to resounding success. The Roadrunners set NCAA start-up program records for inaugural game (56,743) and average home attendance (35,521) in six contests at the 65,000-seat Alamodome. In year two, UTSA posted an 8-4 overall record and finished fourth in the WAC with a 3-3 mark while averaging more than 29,000 fans at its six home dates. The 2010-11 academic year will go down in history as arguably the most successful in school annals, as the Roadrunners claimed the Southland Commissioner’s Cup and Women’s All-Sports Trophy, five championships and the first-ever NCAA postseason victory. UTSA followed that with four more league titles during the 201112 campaign, closing out two decades in the Southland with 58 team championships, a pair of Commissioner’s Cups and two All-Sports Trophies. Hickey has led the charge for UTSA and its hosting of numerous NCAA Championship events. Since her arrival on campus, UTSA has served as host institution for the 2001 NCAA Men’s Basketball Midwest Regional, 2002 Women’s Final Four, 2003 Men’s Basketball South Regional, 2004 Men’s Final Four, 2005 Women’s Volleyball Championship, 2006 Women’s Basketball South Regional, 2007 Men’s

Basketball South Regional, 2008 Men’s Final Four, 2010 Women’s Final Four, 2011 Men’s Basketball Southwest Regional and 2011 Women’s Volleyball Championship. The school is slated to host the 2014 Men’s Basketball Second & Third Rounds, the 2014 Men’s Golf San Antonio Regional and the 2015 Women’s Golf Central Regional. In 2007, Hickey was named to the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Committee, one of the most prestigious appointments in all of collegiate athletics. The 10-member committee oversees administration of the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Championship, including the selection and seeding of teams for the tournament. Hickey, whose five-year term expired in 2012, became just the second female ever selected to the committee, joining Charlotte Athletics Director Judy Rose, who served from 1999-2003. Hickey has been honored nationally and locally for her hard work at UTSA. She was named the National Association of Collegiate Women Athletics Administrators 2005 Division I-AAA Administrator of the Year. Hickey earned her second national award in June 2006 as the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics/ GeneralSports TURF Systems Division I-AAA West Region AD of the Year. The San Antonio Express-News tabbed her as its 2010 Sportswoman of the Year and she also was selected to and completed the Masters Leadership Program of San Antonio and Bexar County. In September 2011, she received the ATHENA Leadership from the North San Antonio Chamber of Commerce. “UTSA is very fortunate to have an athletic leader with both the administrative and coaching experience of Lynn Hickey,” UTSA President Dr. Ricardo Romo said. “Lynn not only is a leader who can take our athletic program to the next level, but she is also well respected nationally and serves as an excellent role model for all studentathletes at this university.” In serving as the fourth athletics director in UTSA history, Hickey assumed the lead athletics role at one of the youngest NCAA Division I universities in the country (UTSA began athletics competition in 1981). The only female Division I athletics director that oversees both men’s and women’s sports in the state of Texas, she served as President of the Southland from 2002-04 and as the league’s representative to the NCAA Championship/Competition Cabinet. Hickey also was a member of the Women’s Basketball Rules Committee from 2003-06, spending the last two years as chair. Hickey came to San Antonio from Texas A&M University, where she served as senior associate athletics director/senior woman administrator from 1994-2000. At Texas A&M, her responsibilities included event management and marketing and promotions for 16 of the university’s 19 Division I sports. She also represented the Big 12 Conference as a member of the NCAA Championship Cabinet. From 1984-94, Hickey served as head women’s basketball coach for Texas A&M. She directed the 1993-94 Aggies basketball team to the NCAA Tournament Sweet 16, becoming the lowest-seeded team to ever reach that milestone. Texas A&M finished the year ranked No. 19 in the CNN/USA Today Top 25 poll. Following the season, Hickey relinquished her coaching duties to accept the promotion to senior associate athletics director. She finished her coaching career with an overall mark of 279-167 in 15 years of collegiate coaching. Before her stint at A&M, Hickey was head women’s basketball coach at Kansas State University from 1979-84. She averaged more than 23 wins per season in posting a 125-39 (.762) record over five years and led the Wildcats to five consecutive national tournament berths. She was inducted into the Kansas State Athletics Hall of Fame in September 2004. A native of Welch, Okla., Hickey graduated summa cum laude from Ouachita Baptist University in Arkadelphia, Ark., with a bachelor’s degree in education. She was an All-American for OBU’s nationally-ranked basketball team and a member of the USA National Team in 1973. Hickey and her husband, Bill, have one daughter, Lauren Nicole.

Steve Ballard Head Coach Eighth Season SUNY-Courtland ‘74 Steve Ballard is in his eighth season as head coach of the UTSA women’s soccer program, which joins Conference USA this fall.

Steve Ballard at a glance...

With more than 20 years of women’s head coaching experience, Ballard has accumulated a career record of 223-177-27 (.554), including a 61-67-13 record at UTSA.

Coaching Record Overall : 223-177-27 (.554) At UTSA: 61-67-13 (.433)

He transformed the Roadrunners into annual Southland Conference contenders in his first six years on the job, as proven by his 32-13-8 league ledger, a pair of runner-up finishes in the conference standings (2006 & ‘07), six consecutive Southland Tournament appearances and the tournament crown and program’s first-ever NCAA Tournament appearance in 2010. A strong believer in academics, Ballard placed 13 players on the Southland’s All-Academic teams during the Birds’ six years in the league, including first-teamers Allison Dillon, Anka Grotle, two-time honoree Ezinne Okpo, Maria Jose Rojas and Chelsea Zimmerman. Two players also were named to CoSIDA’s Academic All-District squads — Okpo and Zimmerman — and 107 earned spots on the Southland Commissioner’s Fall Honor Roll. His team also has been recognized with the Team Academic Award from the National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) in each of the last six seasons. Ballard has mentored 27 all-conference performers, including six first-teamers, and two Southland Freshman of the Year winners (Zimmerman 2006/Dillon 2007). In 2011, Grotle became the first player in program annals to earn first-team accolades in back-to-back seasons and the first repeat selection since Okpo was named to the league’s top squad in 2007 and again two years later. Last season, Rojas led the team in goals (4), assists (3), points (11), shots (40) and shots on goal (23) and earned third-team All-Western Athletic Conference honors. The junior also notched a pair of game-winning goals that lifted UTSA to victories over Eastern Michigan (Aug. 31) and New Mexico State (Oct. 21).
