JERRY RICHARDSON INDOOR STADIUM

Wofford announced on Nov. 17, 2014, its plans to build the Jerry Richardson Indoor Stadium to house a new basketball/volleyball arena, locker rooms and other facilities. The facility will be adjacent to the north end of Gibbs Stadium, where the Terriers play football. Construction on the facility began in the fall of 2015 with the opening date slated for September 2017. Wofford alumnus and trustee Jerry Richardson ‘59 provided the gift to fund the 110,000-square-foot facility that will include a 3,400-seat basketball arena and a 500-seat volleyball competition venue. The Jerry Richardson Indoor Stadium will serve as the home for women’s basketball, men’s basketball and volleyball and have a seating capacity for non-athletics functions, such as commencement and concerts, of 4,500. It will include home and visitor lockers for multiple sports, a state-of-the-art training room, coaches’ offices and locker rooms and team meeting rooms. Other features include a video board and ribbon boards,

plus designated areas specifically designed for students, fans, children and donors. Four open-air suites also are planned.

ROSALIND SALLENGER RICHARDSON CENTER FOR THE ARTS

Wofford alumnus and Carolina Panthers founder and owner Jerry Richardson and his wife, Rosalind Richardson, helped turn the first shovels of dirt on May 12, 2015, to begin construction of the Rosalind Sallenger Richardson Center for the Arts at Wofford College. The facility opened to the public in May of 2017. The 67,000-square-foot facility houses the college’s theatre and visual arts programs and includes a 300-seat performance hall along with a museum and a student gallery. It features two custom-made glass sculptures by internationally renowned artist Dale Chihuly. The Center for the Arts features a material pallet of masonry, stucco and copper. Large areas of glass connects the interior to the outdoors, filling art studios with

natural light and creating transparency and openness between spaces and across an outdoor sculpture garden. Richardson, a 1959 Wofford graduate and member of the college’s board of trustees, provided the gift for the center in honor of his wife’s commitment and dedication to the arts.

GREEK VILLAGE

Greek life at Wofford College has a long and vibrant history, one steeped in tradition, philanthropy, fellowship, scholarship, leadership, and the ideals of brotherhood and sisterhood. Wofford’s original fraternity houses were constructed in the mid-1950s and were filled with fond memories. They were replaced in the spring of 2016 with new, more serviceable spaces for North-American National Interfraternity Conference organizations and add options for National Panhellenic Conference and National Pan-Hellenic Council organizations. The Greek Village is located across Evins Street from the main portion of campus.

Spartanburg

THE HUB CITY

The City’s origins predate the Revolutionary War. Spartanburg was named for a unit of American Revolution forces called the “Spartan Rifles” who helped defeat the British at the Battle of Cowpens in 1781, under the leadership of General Daniel Morgan. The town of Spartanburg was incorporated in 1831 and later as a city in 1880 by the 13 Original States and Tennessee. During this time Spartanburg was booming due in large part to the rapidly expanding textile industry. In the 1870s, Spartanburg became a railroad “hub city,” with mainline railroads extending from Magnolia Street depot in all directions, taking passengers and freight to Charleston, Augus­ta, Atlanta, Asheville, Charlotte and points beyond. As many as 90 trains per day could be seen and heard operating in Spartanburg during the golden age of the American railroad, 190020. During the 1920s, Spartanburg built South Caro­ lina’s first municipal airport and claimed the state’s first commercial radio station (WSPA). Its leader­ship in the state was reflected by the election of several residents as governor. Thousands of U.S. soldiers bound for overseas service in World Wars I and II trained at camps in Spartanburg. The post headquarters for Camp Wadsworth (1917-19) was located at the present site of WestGate Mall, and the Camp Croft (1940-45) was located south of the city.

Much of that military reservation has become Croft State Park. After World War II, Spartanburg made a con­certed effort to promote its location at the junction of Interstates 85 and 26 to international business. One of the greatest successes of this campaign was the development of the BMW manufacturing center near the Greenville-Spartanburg Airport. Spartanburg’s downtown, which always has been anchored by the campuses of Wofford and Converse Colleges, has been undergoing a major revival since the mid-1990s. In addition to the corporate headquarters for Denny’s, Advance America, QS-1 and several other companies, the city has acquired a magnificant public library, the Marriott Hotel at Renaissance Park and most recently, the Chapman Arts Center and the USC Upstate George Dean Johnson School of Business. The area surrounding Morgan Square gradually is redeveloping with a variety of interesting restaurants and urban apartment-style housing. Throughout the 20th century, textile manufac­turing companies formed the backbone of the Spartanburg

10 2017-18 Wofford Cross Country/Track and Field

economy. The most significant of these companies still in operation is internation­ally respected Milliken & Company. Blessed by geography and climate as well as by energetic and well-educated citizenry, Spartan­burg is emerging as one of the centers of a 21st century metroplex that extends along the South Carolina portion of the I-85 corridor.


Wofford THE CAROLINA PANTHERS

The Carolina Panthers have held training camp at Wofford since their inaugural season in 1995 and it will be held on campus until at least 2019. The camp provides Wofford tremendous national exposure and visibility. Media members that visit Wofford during the camp include ESPN, Fox Sports, NFL Network, USA Today and Sports Illustrated. Local print and television media from markets including Columbia, Charlotte, Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill, Asheville and Greensboro/ Winston-Salem are on campus on a daily basis. According to SI.com’s Tim Layden, “as I like to think of it: Training Camp Heaven. Wofford is 70 miles west of Charlotte on I-85, and presents all the reasons why there is something special about taking the team on the road for camp. Three pristine, Bermuda-grass fields with a stand of tall pines on two sides and a steep hillside -- where fans sit and watch -- on another. Fans, many of them young boys and girls, lined up along the fence, getting autographs after practice. It’s a scene straight out of football’s past.”

NCAA COMPLIANCE

The importance of following all NCAA rules and regulations is imperative to maintaining the integrity of Wofford College and intercollegiate athletics. We ask all who are associated with the institutions athletics programs to help the College protect the spirit of competition, the athletics eligibility of our student-athletes and the reputation of the College by adhering to the rules and regulations of the NCAA and by contacting the Compliance Office or the NCAA with all questions. If you have any questions about NCAA rules, please contact Elizabeth Rabb at (864) 597-4090, the Wofford website at woffordterriers.com and click on ‘Compliance,’ or the NCAA at www.ncaa.org. What is a Representative of Athletics Interests (Booster/Donor)? All alumni, friends, and employees of the College are categorized as ‘representatives of athletics interest.’ The NCAA stipulates that once an individual has been identified as a ‘representative’ or “booster/donor” he/she retains this status forever even if the individual is no longer associated with the athletics program. Furthermore the NCAA states that it is possible for a person to be a representative of more than one institution at the same time. A representative of athletics interest may not: • Contact a prospect’s coach, principal or counselor in an effort to evaluate a prospect • Visit the prospect’s institution to pick up film or transcripts • Contact a prospect, his/her parents, legal guardians or spouse on or off campus • Contact a prospect by telephone or letter • Make special arrangements to entertain a recruit • Provide extra benefits to a prospect, student-athlete or the parents, family and/or guardians of the prospects or student-athletes

JOHNSON

PRESIDENT

ATHLETIC DIRECTOR

The Wofford College Board of Trustees elected Dr. Nayef H. Samhat as president of the college on Tuesday, May 14, 2013. He began his duties at Wofford on July 1, 2013. Samhat had served as provost and professor of political science and international studies at Kenyon College in Gambier, Ohio, since 2009. “We conducted a thorough, national search for the 11th president of Wofford College,” said J. Harold Chandler (Class of 1971), chair of the Wofford Board of Trustees. “Our search committee was led by an able and accomplished individual and its 12 members have done their job in a thoughtful and comprehensive manner.

Phi Beta Kappa

PHI BETA KAPPA PHI BETA KAPPA

At the end of the last academic year, there were approximately 2,000 four-year colleges in the United States. Only 262 of them have the right to induct their graduates into Phi Beta Kappa, the nation’s most prestigious liberal arts honor society. There are five independent Phi Beta Kappa colleges and universities in the Carolinas: Wofford, Davidson, Duke, Furman and Wake Forest. Founded at the College of William and Mary in December 1776, Phi Beta Kappa was the first of the Greek letter fraternities and adopted such rituals as the badge, the secret oath, and the special handclasp from the various secret societies of the day. Phi Beta Kappa, however, was also devoted to the principles of “friendship, morality, and literature (or learning),” and these characteristics gradually attained the greatest emphasis. John Quincy Adams, Edward Everett and Joseph Story, members of the Harvard chapter, are credited with making the fraternity a public literary and honor society for undergraduates in the 1830’s. Women were first admitted to Phi Beta Kappa in 1875 at the University of Vermont. Wofford received its chapter at the 1940 triennial meeting, bringing to fruition more than ten years of work by three Phi Beta Kappa members who were then serving on the faculty: President Henry Nelson Snyder, Dr. David Duncan Wallace, class of 1894, and Dr. John West Harris ’16, a brash and brilliant young English professor not afraid to campaign vigorously in the conviction that his alma mater deserved membership. (Dr. Harris later founded the National Beta Club, which still has its headquarters in Spartanburg). With about 350,000 members across the country, Phi Beta Kappa today sponsors numerous programs to encourage scholarship and learning, including the Phi Beta Kappa Book Awards and the visiting scholar, academic fellowship and leadership programs. For these reasons, Phi Beta Kappa Day at Wofford has institutional significance, as well as being especially memorable for the new members, each of whom will receive the traditional Phi Beta Kappa watch key or pin.

Southern Conference

SOUTHERN CONFERENCE The Southern Conference, which is in its 97th season of intercollegiate competition in 2017-18, is a national leader in emphasizing the development of the student-athlete and in helping to build lifelong leaders and role models. The Southern Conference has been on the forefront of innovation and originality in developing creative solutions to address issues facing intercollegiate athletics. From establishing the first postseason college basketball tournament (1921), to tackling the issue of freshman eligibility (1922), to developing women’s championships (1984), to becoming the first conference to install the 3-point goal in basketball (1980), the Southern Conference has been a pioneer. The Southern Conference is the nation’s fifth-oldest NCAA Division I collegiate athletic association. Only the Big Ten (1896), the Missouri Valley (1907), the Pac-12 (1915) and the Southwestern Athletic (1920) conferences are older in terms of origination. Academic excellence has been a major part of the Southern Conference’s tradition. Hundreds of Southern Conference student-athletes have been recognized on CoSIDA Academic AllAmerica and all-district teams. A total of 20 Rhodes Scholarship winners have been selected from conference institutions, most recently in 2012-13, when former Wofford volleyball player Rachel Woodlee earned the prestigious award.

The conference currently consists of 10 members in six states throughout the Southeast and sponsors 22 varsity sports and championships that produce participants for NCAA Division I Championships. The league added rifle, becoming just the second Division I conference to sponsor the sport, in 2016-17. The Southern Conference offices are located in the historic Beaumont Mill in Spartanburg, S.C. A textile mill that was in operation from 1880 until 1999, Beaumont Mill was renovated in 2004 and today offers the league first-class meeting areas and offices as well as a spacious library for storage of the conference’s historical documents. MEMBERSHIP HISTORY On Feb. 25, 1921, representatives from 14 of the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association’s (SIAA) 30 members met at Atlanta’s Piedmont Hotel to establish the Southern Intercollegiate Conference. On hand at the inaugural meeting were officials from Alabama, Alabama Polytechnic Institute (Auburn), Clemson, Georgia, Georgia School of Technology (Georgia Tech), Kentucky, Maryland, Mississippi A&M (Mississippi State), North Carolina, North Carolina State, Tennessee, Virginia, Virginia Polytechnic Institute (Virginia Tech) and Washington & Lee.

The Southern Conference office is located in the refurbished Beaumont Mill in Spartanburg, less than a mile from the Wofford campus.

Dr. S.V. Sanford of Georgia was chosen as acting chairman and N.W. Dougherty of Tennessee was named secretary. The decision to form a new athletic conference was motivated by the desire to have a workable number of conference games for each league member. With 30 schools in the SIAA by the early 1920s, it was impossible to play every school at least once during the regular season and many schools went several years between playing some conference members. In addition, in 1920, the SIAA voted down proposed rules that an athlete must be in a college a year before playing on its teams and refused to abolish a rule permitting athletes to play summer baseball for money. Play began in the fall of 1921, and a year later, six more schools joined the fledgling league, including Tulane (which had attended the inaugural meeting but had elected not to join), Florida, Louisiana (LSU), Mississippi, South Carolina and Vanderbilt. VMI joined in 1925 and Duke was added in 1929. By the 1930s, membership in the Southern Conference had reached 23 schools. C.P. “Sally” Miles of Virginia Tech, president of the Southern Conference, called the annual league meeting to order on Dec. 9, 1932, at the Farragut Hotel in Knoxville, Tenn. Georgia’s Dr. Sanford announced that 13 institutions west and south of the Appalachian Mountains were reorganizing as the Southeastern Conference. Members of the new league included Alabama, Alabama Polytechnic Institute, Florida, Georgia, Georgia School of Technology, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Mississippi A&M, University of the South, Tennessee, Tulane and Vanderbilt. According to the minutes of the meeting, Dr. Sanford stated that the division was made along geographical lines. Florida’s Dr. J.J. Tigert, acting as spokesman for the withdrawing group, regretted the move but believed it was necessary as the Southern Conference had grown too large. The resignations were accepted and the withdrawing schools formed the new

league, which began play in 1933. The Southern Conference continued with membership of 10 institutions, including Clemson, Duke, Maryland, North Carolina, North Carolina State, South Carolina, Virginia, VMI, Virginia Tech and Washington & Lee. The second major shift occurred some 20 years later. By 1952, the Southern Conference included 17 colleges and universities. Another split occurred when seven schools – Clemson, Duke, Maryland, North Carolina, North Carolina State, South Carolina and Wake Forest – departed to form the Atlantic Coast Conference, which began play in 1953. The revamped Southern Conference included members The Citadel, Davidson, Furman, George Washington, Richmond, VMI, Virginia Tech, Washington & Lee, West Virginia and William & Mary. A third major shift occurred in 2012-13, when five members announced their departures and three schools were added. College of Charleston announced its decision to leave for the Colonial Athletic Association following the 2012-13 season, while Appalachian State (Sun Belt), Davidson (Atlantic 10), Elon (Colonial) and Georgia Southern (Sun Belt) announced they would depart following the 2013-14 campaign. At the Southern Conference’s 2013 spring meetings in Hilton Head Island, S.C., the league officially extended invitations to former members ETSU and VMI, as well as Mercer, to join the league for the 2014-15 academic year. Today, the league continues to thrive with a membership that includes 10 institutions and a footprint that spans six states: Alabama, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia. Current league members are The Citadel, ETSU, Furman, Mercer, UNCG, Samford, Chattanooga, VMI, Western Carolina and Wofford. CHAMPIONSHIP HISTORY The first Southern Conference Championship held after the formation of the league was the basketball tournament in Atlanta in 1922. North Carolina won the tournament to become the first recognized league champion in any sport. The Southern Conference tournament remains the oldest of its kind in college basketball. The most recent SoCon addition, women’s lacrosse, will crown its first champion in April of 2018. The Southern Conference declares champions in 11 men’s sports – football, soccer, cross country, basketball, indoor track

and field, outdoor track and field, wrestling, baseball, lacrosse, tennis and golf – and nine women’s sports – soccer, volleyball, cross country, basketball, indoor track and field, outdoor track and field, tennis, golf and softball. Rifle is a mixed sport.

Wofford won the 2003, 2007, 2010 and 2012 SoCon Football Championships.
