RICHARDSON BUILDING
Wofford
THE RICHARDSON BUILDING
The home of the Wofford College Athletic Department since 1996 is the Richardson Physical Activities Building. The facility includes offices for the administration, football, baseball and other sports on the second floor. Also included on the second floor is an aerobic dance room, team meeting room, racquetball courts and a student-athlete lounge. Locker rooms for football, men’s and women’s cross country/track and field, men’s and women’s soccer and a training room are located on the first floor. Wofford alumnus Jerry Richardson made donations in 2008 and 2018 that were used for enhancing the Richardson Building. Numerous improvements were made in the facility to ensure that it is one of the most advanced athletic facilities in the nation. The most recent renovations to the building include a 1,200 square foot addition to house a new state of the art hydrotherapy suite which includes a Hydroworx aquatic therapy pool with underwater treadmill. The existing training room was relocated to adjoin the new hydrotherapy suite, which results in a much-needed increased size for the new training room. Supporting the training area are three staff offices, exam room, and state-of-the-art x-ray room. The new team meeting room is equiped with the latest video technology and a media backdrop for postgame press conferences. The existing football locker room was expanded and upgraded. The upgrades included new paint, carpet, ceilings, and lighting. The equipment room has been reconfigured, and a new high-density storage system was purchased to increase capacity and improve efficiency in the handling of equipment. In addition to the visible improvements a new supplemental mechanical unit to control moisture and improve indoor air quality was installed, along with new HVAC controls in the entire building. With the campus fitness center relocated to the Benjamin Johnson Arena, renovations were also made to the second floor. A second team meeting room was created with sliding glass walls to provide flexibility for a variety of uses. A student-athlete lounge was built near the racquetball courts which includes two 70-inch monitors. The building also includes the Harley Room, a large multipurpose area overlooking Gibbs Stadium. The area hosts a wide variety of campus events during the year. On the patio, a sculpture of Jerry Richardson was dedicated on May 12, 2014 to honor him and recognize the 20th anniversary of the Carolina Panthers summer training camp being held on campus. The sculpture, created by noted California artist Todd Andrews, depicts Richardson seeming to be ready to walk over to Gibbs Stadium to watch the Terriers – for which he also played – take on the next worthy opponent.

When the campus community bid farewell to the Benjamin Johnson Arena as the home of Wofford basketball and volleyball in 2017, it created new possibilities for student recreation and wellness. The renovated Benjamin Johnson Arena student fitness center opened in January of 2018. “The Benjamin Johnson Arena, which opened in 1981, holds a lot of history for Wofford College, and we’re glad we are able to continue to use the facility as a larger, better fitness center for our students, faculty and staff,” President Nayef Samhat says. “The addition of the new Jerry Richardson Indoor Stadium provides us with this terrific opportunity to give our community a place in the Benjamin Johnson Arena to exercise both their bodies and their minds.” The lower level of the arena (once basketball and volleyball courts and bleachers) houses a new multi-sport playing surface with three courts. A walking track surrounds the perimeter of the courts. The locker rooms were completely renovated. The concourse areas have become the new student fitness center with the installation of a variety of equipment and machines. The east concourse has weight equipment, including free weights, benches and machines. The other concourse has cardio equipment, including treadmills, stationary bikes and elliptical machines. The concourses also have open locker storage and new audio-visual equipment. In addition to the fitness activities, Benjamin Johnson Arena is home of a comprehensive intramural, recreation, and club sports programs that encompass team sports, individual sports, fitness classes, club sports, as well as various other programs. Highlights include intramural basketball and softball, equestrian club, men’s club lacrosse, club ultimate frisbee and an outdoors club. The arena is named after Benjamin O. Johnson ’30 who was a Spartanburg textile executive associated with Spartan Mills. Mr. Johnson was also a trustee of Wofford College as well as a benefactor. Wofford moved into the Benjamin Johnson Arena in 1981 after playing in adjacent Andrews Field House for 50 years. The $4.5 million arena is part of the Campus Life Building, which was designed to serve as the center of athletic, social and cultural activity on campus. The first men’s basketball contest was held on January 22, 1981, as The Citadel scored a 65-64 win over Wofford. The Terriers first win in the arena was on January 26, 1981. The men had an overall record of 334-131 in 37 seasons in the facility. The Wofford women’s basketball team fielded its first varsity team in the 198081 season, moving into Benjamin Johnson Arena in 1981 after playing in Andrews Fieldhouse for the first half of the season. The first women’s basketball game was held on January 22, 1981, with Wofford defeating Sacred Heart 74-25.

STRENGTH AND CONDITIONING
THE JOE E. TAYLOR CENTER
Wofford alumnus and former South Carolina Secretary of Commerce Joe Taylor donated $1 million for the renovation of the Curry Building into the Joe E. Taylor Athletic Center. The Taylor Center features a 7,000 square foot weight room and offices for athletic department staff. The building, located next to Gibbs Stadium, was completed in June of 2009. The weight room facility is equipped with a total of 24 racks with built-in pull-up bars and nearly 25,000 pounds of plates, dumbells and olympic weights. The 24 racks are divided, with twelve used with platforms and twelve used with benches. Additional equipment includes four pulldown machines, four low row machines, five power runners, six glute/ham machines, two decline ab machines, a leg press and exercise bike. Also included is a large area of Mondo track flooring, which is used with the step-up boxes, plyo boxes and hurdle sets in speed development. The Taylor Center also provides offices for administration and numerous sports, including women’s soccer, men’s and women’s golf, men’s and women’s tennis and cross country and track and field. A conference room and several work areas give the coaching staff much needed space.

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
10 2019-20 Wofford Cross Country/Track and Field
companies formed the backbone of the Spartanburg 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 terraced 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

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

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. The board of trustees, led by its Human Resources Committee, has completed its review and have voted to accept the mutual recommendation of the Search Committee and the Human Resources Committee in the naming of Dr. Nayef H. Samhat as the next president of Wofford College. We are honored that Dr. Samhat has accepted our call and we are excited and ready to begin our important work together.” Samhat held several positions at Centre College in Danville, Ky., from 1996 to 2009, including associate dean of the college, the Frank B. and Virginia Hower Associate Professor of Government and International Studies, chair of the Division of Social Studies, and the National Endowment for the Humanities Associate coordinator of the Environmental Field Experience Program and an instructor in the Department of Political Science at Northwestern University in Evanston, Ill., from 1995 to 1996. After receiving his bachelor’s degree in international economics from The George Washington University in Washington, D.C., in 1983, Samhat received his master of international affairs degree from Columbia University in New York City. He received his Ph.D. in political science from Northwestern University, where he also received a minor in comparative political economy. While at Kenyon, Samhat oversaw a number of major grants, including two from the Mellon Foundation: a Critical Languages and Innovative Pedagogy grant to support post-doctoral teaching fellowships for Russian and Arabic languages, and a grant for the Center for Innovative Pedagogy and The Essentials: Renewing General Education within the Curriculum to enhance the endowment for a previously Mellon-funded Teacher Teaching Teachers grant. He is currently serving on the NCAA Board of Governors, along with the NCAA Division I Sport Organizational Structure Working Group. He also was chairman of the Southern Conference Council of Presidents in 2015-16.

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.
Jonathan Rice ‘17 (above) is the latest in a long line of cross country/track and field team members to be inducted into Phi Beta Kappa.

Southern Conference
SOUTHERN CONFERENCE The Southern Conference, which is in its 99th season of intercollegiate competition in 2019-20, 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.
56
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, and added women’s lacrosse for the 2017-18 campaign. 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.
2019-20 Wofford Cross Country/Track and Field
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
Southern Conference SOUTHERN CONFERENCE MEMBERS
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. FOOTBALL The Southern Conference has also excelled as the premier Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) conference. Former Southern Conference member Appalachian State won the three consecutive FCS titles from 2005-07, becoming the first team to do so. The league boasts more than 250 players who have garnered All-America recognition and numerous national player or coach of the year awards. The conference had at least one team in the top 10 of the final FCS poll for 28 consecutive years
(1985-2012), with at least two teams finishing in the final poll in every season from 1982-2013. Two SoCon teams – ETSU and Wofford – finished in the top 25 in 2018. The conference has placed multiple representatives in the FCS Playoffs in 30 of 35 seasons, with 16 championship game appearances and eight national titles. Wofford won the 2003, 2007, 2010, 2012, 2017 and 2018 SoCon Football Championships.
