2013-14 University of Wisconsin Athletics Annual Report by Wisconsin Badgers

From the desk of Barry Alvarez ith the 2013-14 school year coming to a close, we have all had time to reflect on what was a tremendous year to be a Badger. I hope you are as proud as I am of the accomplishments of our student-athletes, coaches and staff, both on and off the

field. Athletically, there were a number of things to celebrate, with three of our teams advancing to championship weekend. First-year head coach Kelly Sheffield did a marvelous job in guiding the volleyball team’s run to the national title game. Our women’s hockey team continued its tradition of success by reaching the Frozen Four for the seventh time in nine years. And we won’t soon forget the men’s basketball team’s magical march to the Final Four in Arlington, Texas. In all, 18 of our 23 teams advanced to post-season play. Gary Andersen’s first season was punctuated by another January 1 bowl game appearance, the men’s soccer team qualified for the NCAA tournament for the first time since 1995 and behind a strong senior class, the softball team made back-to-back NCAA appearances for just the second time in school history. The men’s hockey team had quite a debut in the inaugural Big Ten campaign, winning the league’s playoff title with a stirring comeback win in overtime against Ohio State. And speaking of conference titles, the men’s track and field team continued its dominance, sweeping the indoor and outdoor Big Ten crowns for the 12th time in program history. It all added up to a top-20 finish in the Learfield Sports Directors’ Cup, which recognizes success among all sports. That broad-based success is something we strive for each and every year. Our nearly 800 student-athletes also continue to excel in the classroom as they combined for a cumulative grade-point average of 3.02 for the academic year. Seven teams either set or tied their highest term or cumulative team grade-point averages, 209 Badgers earned academic all-conference honors and our streak of consecutive years with at least one CoSIDA Academic All-American was extended to 35, tied for the second-longest active streak in the country. In the community, our Badgers Give Back program is the envy of many athletic departments around the country. Our student-athletes volunteered an astounding 8,100 hours in 2013-14 as nearly 80 percent of them participated. They truly recognize the importance of being involved in the community and giving their time, and how it can especially impact a young person’s life. We take pride in developing well-rounded student-athletes and that’s why I was excited about the completion of the Stephen M. Bennett Student-Athlete Performance Center in January. Due to the tremendous generosity of a number of our donors, we were able to build a facility that touches our student-athletes in numerous ways, with a new academic center, stateof-the-art sports medicine facilities, renovated locker rooms and expanded weight rooms. As we look ahead to 2014-15, I would be remiss if we did so without thanking all of our fans. In addition to all of our accomplishments, we again ranked among the nation’s leaders in attendance, with six different sports placing among the top 20 in the country. That’s a true testament to the great support we have. Thanks for all you do in support of the Badgers. On, Wisconsin!

Director of Athletics Barry Alvarez

The 2014 NCAA champion in the indoor weight throw, Lihrman was dominant in the ring as the Rice Lake, Wisconsin, native won 10 events and only lost to collegiate competition three times during the indoor and outdoor seasons. During the indoor season, Lihrman set the Division I record in the weight throw with a heave of 79 feet, 7 1/2 inches at the Red & White Open on Feb. 21. Lihrman went on to win the Big Ten title in the weight throw, helping the Badgers win their secondstraight indoor conference crown. At the NCAA indoor championships, he posted five of the top six overall marks to win the competition, becoming the first Badger to win an individual NCAA title since 2007. During the outdoor campaign, Lihrman broke the Big Ten record in the hammer throw with a heave of 233-1. He finished runner-up in the hammer at the Big Ten outdoor championships, but his eight points helped the Badgers sweep the indoor and outdoor conference crowns for the first time since 2007. At the NCAA outdoor championships, Lihrman again broke the Big Ten record in the hammer with a toss of 233-9 and finished third to earn All-America honors. He became the first Badger to earn All-America laurels in the hammer since Arthur Frisch in 1931. Lihrman capped off his season with a ninth-place showing in the hammer throw at the 2014 USA Outdoor Championships.

In her final season between the pipes for the women’s hockey team, Rigsby made history while helping the Badgers to their seventh Frozen Four appearance in program history. A 2014 AHCA first-team All-American, Rigsby set the UW record for career wins, leaving Wisconsin with 100 triumphs, which is tied for the second most in NCAA history. The Delafield native enjoyed a 17-7-2 record this season, with five of her wins coming against ranked foes. Rigsby was named a first-team All-WCHA selection and earned a spot on the All-USCHO first team. She passed UW legend Jessie Vetter for the most wins in program history with a 3-1 win over Bemidji State to earn her 92nd career victory. Rigsby’s best game of the year came against Harvard in the NCAA quarterfinals, as the senior stopped 23 of the 24 shots she faced and made a few spectacular saves to propel Wisconsin to a 2-1 victory. Rigsby excelled in the classroom and was named a 2014 WCHA Scholar-Athlete and earned a spot on the All-WCHA Academic team for the second-straight season. She also was a two-time Academic All-Big Ten honoree.

The Goodman Softball Training Center opened in the summer of 2013.

During their lives, brothers Irwin A. and Robert D. Goodman made a significant impact on UW softball by generously providing funds to support the program. The legacy of their impact continues through the Irwin A. and Robert D. Goodman Family Foundation, which provided the leadership gift to initiate the $3 million Goodman Softball Training Center.

The Goodman Softball Training Center was dedicated in September of 2013.

The Badgers have made it to the NCAA tournament the last two seasons.

Badgers Give Back

n its second year, the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Badgers Give Backâ&#x20AC;? program, a community relations platform meant to increase publicity of student-athlete outreach efforts, streamline the request process for student-athlete appearances and ensure compliance with NCAA regulations, continued to grow at a tremendous rate in 2013-14. While volunteering has always been a staple for UW student-athletes, the centralized effort behind the program has allowed the Badgers to extend an even bigger reach into the community:

79% Percentage of UW student-athletes that volunteered in 2013-14

8,100 Hours volunteered by UW student-athletes

194% Increase in hours volunteered by UW student-athletes over 2012-13

280 Community appearances made during the 2013-14 academic year

78 Students that volunteered more than 25 hours during the 2013-14 academic year

125 Hours volunteered by football senior Chris Borland during the fall semester, the most of any UW student-athlete

UW Athleticsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; WiscFit program was implemented in 12 classrooms in its first year. The program sent UW studentathletes to area classrooms to share the importance of healthy eating and being physically active and to lead the students through exercise-based activities.

UW student-athletes made more than 30 visits to American Family Children’s Hospital, including to rticipate in “Caleb’s Pitch,” a partnership that allows patients to create artwork by shooting paint-filled syringes at a canvas held by a student-athlete.

UW student-athletes were paired with 30 Dane County classrooms to encourage literacy in conjunction with the Bookin’ It With Bucky program in 2013-14.

“I’m thankful to be a part of the Wisconsin Badgers family because of the opportunity it provides to give back to kids. I grew up watching athletes like myself and the other guys on the team. Sometimes after a game I will give a kid my gloves, and to see the smile on their face and to know that it really made their day … moments like those are really why I am thankful to be a part of this family.” — Jacob Pedersen, Football (52 hours volunteered in 2013-14)

Marketing

n 2013-14, the University of Wisconsin continued its athletic-multimedia rights partnership with Learfield Sports and its on-site operational team, Badger Sports Properties (BSP). The partnership has proved extremely successful for both organizations, evidenced by the move that the Board of Regents’ Business, Finance and Audit Committee agreed in June 2012 to extend the relationship through the 2023-24 fiscal year. BSP is a property of Learfield Sports and the local multimedia rights holder for UW Athletics. BSP oversees the production and distribution of all Badger radio broadcasts, including live game action and coaches’ shows. In addition, the local entity solicits sponsorships and other support for UW Athletics. Its talented team of sales executives assists sponsors in finding the right marketing mix, whether it is advertising on the game broadcasts or a sign in Camp Randall Stadium or the Kohl Center. Adidas and the UW Athletic Department recently completed the fifth year of a comprehensive six-year sponsorship agreement in which adidas serves as the department’s exclusive provider of athletic apparel for all 23 Badger teams.

Wisconsin Athletics was pleased to welcome the Dr. Pepper Snapple group and Badger Max to its facilities, beginning last fall. Fans enjoy smooth refreshing beverage options, including Dr. Pepper, A&W Root Beer, 7-UP and Snapple. BadgerMax sports drink and water is also available, the official isotonic beverage and water of the Badgers. The merchandising partner of UW Athletics is Gold Country, Inc., which continues to operate Bucky’s Locker Room retail stores at Camp Randall Stadium and at the Kohl Center. In addition, Bucky’s handles all game-day merchandising at all UW Athletic facilities and is the department’s exclusive Web site merchandise sales partner.

One of the great ways to keep up with the Badger head coaches is to catch them at their weekly radio shows throughout the sports seasons. These free events are held at local restaurants in the Madison area and give fans a chance to grab a bite to eat, hang out with friends and listen to (and watch) the UW coaches discuss a variety of topics relating to their teams or sports. Hosted by Badger radio personalities such as Matt Lepay and Mike Lucas (above), the weekly radio shows give UW fans a close-up look at their favorite sports.

Bucky’s Buddies Kids’ Club

At the conclusion of each home football game, the Badger football team sings “On, Wisconsin!” with the UW Band and the fans to salute the great support Badger faithful have for Wisconsin football. The tradition began during the 2013-14 season.

More than 12,000 kids, age 12 and under, are currently registered for the Bucky’s Buddies Kids Club. Membership is free and kids are provided a seasonal newsletter, personal correspondence on their birthday, as well as first information on kids clinics hosted by UW Athletic teams.

The 2014 Crazylegs Classic celebrated its 33rd anniversary in April with over 15,500 runners and walkers participating on a beautiful spring day! This annual event is organized and administered for UW Athletics by the National W Club and a loyal set of long-time race volunteers. The race is named for Elroy “Crazylegs” Hirsch, the former UW–Madison football star and athletic director who was the official starter for every race from 1982 until his death in 2004. Since that first race in 1982, more than 300,700 runners and walkers have taken part and helped raise more than $5 million for UW Athletics. Julie Redders, National W Club President and letterwinner in golf (1990), served as the Grand Marshal for this year’s event.

Reunions The National W Club hosts various reunions each year to welcome back letterwinners. In 2013-14, the W Club and the UW Athletic Department played host to sports reunions for softball, women's rowing, men's and women's swimming, men's basketball, wrestling, men's hockey and the 1994 Rose Bowl team. This fall, men's tennis, volleyball and men's track alums will return to Madison for their reunions.

BADGER COMPLIANCE NCAA Governance Update

April 2014 DEAD PERIODS: 04/03/14 12:00AM—04/10/14 12:00PM: Men’s Basketball

The governance model proposed by the Division I Steering Committee for Governance also outlines possible weighted voting system - via NCAA.org

When the new Division I Board of Directors first convenes under a new governance system, the Steering Committee for Governance wants an athletics director, student-athlete and faculty athletics representative to be present – and cast votes. The steering committee met March 18 and continued its work toward delivering a proposed governance model to the membership this spring. While the steering committee believes the board should be comprised primarily of university presidents, it supports adding new voices to the table, including the chair of the Division I Student-Athlete Advisory Committee; the chair of a new group tentatively called the Council; and the highest-ranking Division I member of the Faculty Athletics Representatives Association’s executive committee. The Council chair will always be an athletics director, which gives that group an automatic spot on the board. “The steering committee believes the non-presidents on the board should be defined by their positions within different organizations,” said steering committee and board chair Nathan Hatch, president of Wake Forest University. “But we feel very strongly that they should be voting members of the board.” The presidents would retain the right to meet in executive session if necessary. The committee members also discussed extensively the areas of legislative autonomy for the Atlantic Coast Conference, Big Ten Conference, Big 12 Conference, Pacific-12 Conference and Southeastern Conference under the proposed model. The members of the steering committee, all of them Division I university presidents, are working closely with the conferences to ensure that the areas of autonomy are driven by the values and principles of student-athlete welfare and not competitive advantage. Committee members acknowledged that the full Division I membership will need time to explore the implications of legislative autonomy in specific areas before the board can approve any proposals, and expressed hope that those conversations can take place during the upcoming spring conference meetings.

sive education program, utilizing various methods to increase awareness of NCAA,

The proposal calls for a Council composed of 34 members, one from each of the 32 conferences and two student-athletes. All members would have votes, but the votes would be weighted. The committee will continue meeting in person and via conference call, with the goal of forwarding a potential model to the Division I membership at the April 24 board meeting.

Education Initiative to Select Compliance Customers Coaches and Athletic Department Staff

Members of the compliance staff attend bi-monthly coachesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; meetings and present pertinent educational information. In addition, coaches and staff receive regular emails from the compliance office, including a question of the week, reminders on timely compliance topics, and updates on rules changes. New coaches and staff receive an orientation with a compliance staff member, and all coaches and staff are encouraged to consult the compliance office throughout the year for interpretations of NCAA rules. For more information on the compliance office, see: http:// www.uwbadgers.com/compliance/about-us.html Enrolled Student-Athletes

Compliance office staff members meet with all student-athletes at least twice a year to review pertinent rules. In addition, the compliance office sends educational emails to all student-athletes on a monthly basis. Efforts are also made to educate the parents of student-athletes during special events such as postseason competition. For more information on enrolled student-athletes, see: http://www.uwbadgers.com/compliance/current-badgers.html Prospective Student-Athletes

The compliance office staff works with coaches to answer questions from prospects and their parents regarding the recruiting process and academic eligibility. Prospects are also sent educational mailings in conjunction with a National Letter of Intent and before their arrival in Madison during the summer. Additionally, all prospects enrolling in summer school are provided a compliance orientation with a compliance office staff member. For more information on prospects, see: http://www.uwbadgers.com/compliance/future-badgers.html Representatives of Athletics Interests

This group, which includes UW alumni, donors, employers of student-athletes, and other boosters, receives most of its information from the compliance office via educational mailings. Educational materials are packaged with larger mailings from other departments, such as the Athletic Ticket Office or the Development Office, so that the compliance education information has a broader impact. NCAA rules reminders are also placed in the suites and clubs at Camp Randall and the Kohl Center. For more information on fans, boosters, and alums, see: http://www.uwbadgers. com/compliance/fans-boosters.html

Monitoring Initiatives The compliance office monitors athletic department activities by reviewing documentation submitted by coaches and staff on a variety of activities including practice times, travel itineraries, communication with prospective student-athletes, donation requests and occasional meals. Monitoring helps the compliance office identify and reduce areas where the institution and athletic program are most at risk for violating NCAA, Big Ten Conference, WCHA, and institutional rules. If a violation occurs, the compliance office self-reports the violation. The self-reporting process requires the compliance office to determine how the violation occurred, how the violation could have been prevented and how to prevent the violation from recurring. Among other actions resulting from a violation, the compliance office may modify or develop a form that will promote future compliance. Throughout the year, the compliance office reviews autographed memorabilia requests to ensure all donations are in accordance with NCAA rules. Furthermore, the compliance office also authorizes all requests for student-athlete appearances.

GOAL: COMMITMENT TO COMPLIANCE Spread awareness of NCAA rules and regulations that govern athletics and ensure strict adherence to those rules and regulations
