For the first time since the 2003 season the Lady Blues do not have a returning All-American on the roster. Three-time AllAmerican outside hitter Monica Miesner has graduated and leaves some big shoes to fill. That, however, doesn’t change the expectations for a program that has qualified for the NCAA tournament five straight seasons and six out of the last seven. “I don’t think you can replace Monica, she did so many things so well. If she didn’t have it offensively on a given night she’d block a ball or vice versa, she always found a way to contribute,” said eighth-year head coach Chris Herron. “To get to the NCAA tournament and make a long run you have to have All-Americans. The question for us is who is going to step up and be that AllAmerican and contribute at that level.”
school players in Hillary Hughes and Jessica Kopp to challenge the returners for playing time. Both players were first team high school All-Americans and Kopp was awarded the Evelyn Gates award, which is given annually to the top high school volleyball player in the Kansas City area.

Guess had a solid freshman season splitting time at setter and defensive specialist. According to Herron, Guess has a good intensity and focus about her. Freshman Abby Wittman is another solid addition who will be a great setter for the Lady Blues in the future, but will more than likely redshirt in 2009.

Freshmen Tessa Brophy and Sami McHenry join the Lady Blues after solid high school careers. Brophy should challenge for time right away, while McHenry will redshirt this season. The schedule is once again loaded with tough games, including the always tough MIAA slate. The Lady Blues open the season at the Colorado School of Mines Oredigger Classic.

THE COACHES
Chris Herron led the Lady Blues to their second straight 30-win season and their fifth straight NCAA tournament appearance in 2008. After his first seven years the Lady Blues have won their first two conference titles, won two MIAA Western division titles and went to their first six NCAA tournaments. Herron has garnered three MIAA coach of the year awards and has seen his players claim All-America honors nine times and all-region status 26 times. After leading Washburn to the national semifinal, the school’s highest-ever national finish, and a No. 3 ranking in the final poll in 2007, Herron was named the American Volleyball Coaches Association South Central Region coach of the year. Washburn had a .389 winning percentage as an NCAA-II team before Herron started in 2002. Since then he has turned that around with an .829 winning percentage. He has built the team into the second winningest MIAA program since 2002 and he has turned a team that had just three winning seasons in the last 15 years before he got here to one that has become a dominant force in the region and nation. The Willard, Mo., native is 214-44 (.829) in his seven years at Washburn and 289-73 (.798) in 10 years as a college coach, working three seasons at Benedictine before coming to Washburn. The Lady Blues finished 38-4 in 2007 with a national semifinal finish. They went 12-1 in the MIAA to win the regular season championship and won the NCAA South Central Region as a No. 2 seed. They were given the right to host the final three rounds of the NCAA tournament and defeated No. 1 Tampa in the quarterfinal after falling behind 2-0 in front of a school-record 2,231 fans. The following night they fell to No. 15 Western Washington 3-1 to end the season. In 2006 he led Washburn to an MIAA West Division championship and the Lady Blues earned the No. 2 seed in the NCAA South Central Region tournament. They fell in the first round and ended the season 27-9 with a No. 23 ranking. In 2005 Herron coached WU to 35 wins, a school-record .921 winning percentage and a conference championship with a 15-1 MIAA mark, earning coach of the year honors. Washburn made its third trip to the NCAA tournament and Monica Miesner and Tessa Jones became the second and third WU players to be named All-Americans. In his first season, Herron took the Washburn program to new heights winning its first MIAA championship and making its first appearance in the NCAA tournament with a 29-5 record as he gained his first MIAA coach of the year award. The Lady Blues entered the AVCA national poll for the first time in school history during the 2002 season. Herron was named head coach of the Washburn volleyball team March 25, 2002. He spent the previous three seasons as the head coach of Benedictine College, where he compiled a 75-29 record. After going 13-15 in his first year in 1999, Herron guided the Ravens to their first-ever Heart of America

2008 REVIEW
2009 MEDIA GUIDE
Coming off a season in which they won a school-record 38 games, advanced to the national semifinals and finished the season ranked No. 3 in the country, the 2008 Lady Blues volleyball team had high expectations. Washburn started the season ranked second in the country, the highest ranking ever for the Lady Blues, and got off to a strong start with a 12-match winning streak and wins in 26 of the first 28 matches. The Lady Blues went undefeated at the Colorado State-Pueblo Fall Classic, Missouri-St. Louis Invitational, Dowling College Invitational and their own Lady Blues Fall Classic. With the addition of an 11th team in 2008, the MIAA went to a 20-game conference schedule without divisions. The Lady Blues rode that format to a 15-5 conference mark, including a perfect home record, and a tie for third place in the MIAA. Washburn recorded wins over eight teams that qualified for the NCAA-II tournament in 2008, including 3-0 sweeps in seven of those eight victories. The Lady Blues entered the NCAA-II South Central Region tournament, their fifth straight appearance and sixth overall, as the No. 3 seed and ranked 10th in the country. Washburn squared off with sixth-seeded Central Missouri for the third time after splitting the first two matches of the season. The Lady Blues fell to UCM 3-0 and ended their season at 30-6 and ranked No. 13 in the country. It marked the first time Washburn had been ranked outside the top 10 since the end of the 2006 season. Senior outside hitter Monica Miesner led the team with
28
Outside Hitter Ashley Shepard WUSPORTS.COM
346 kills and 3.01 kills per set. Miesner finished her career as one of only two players in school history in the top five in career digs, kills and points. She finished second in career digs (1,857), third in kills (1,575) and points (1,823). She also became the second Lady Blue, after former teammate Tessa Jones, to be named a three-time All-American. Miesner was a first team selection by the American Volleyball Coaches Association. She was also named to the AVCA All-Region team, Daktronics All-Region and the All-MIAA first team. Junior setter Kate Hampson recorded 1,248 assists in 2008 to become Washburn’s career leader with 4,448 after just three years in a Lady Blues’ uniform. Her career mark of 11.89 assists per set ranks second all-time. She was named third team AllMIAA. Sophomore outside hitter Ashley Shepard was second on the team with 298 kills and 2.95 kills per set. She was named honorable mention all-region by the AVCA and third-team AllMIAA. Freshman middle hitter Mollie Lacy was a third-team AllMIAA selection after finishing third on the team with 289 kills. Senior Stephanie Nitz and sophomore Molly Smith were named honorable mention All-MIAA. Nitz finished her career eighth all-time in attack percentage (.275), ninth in blocks per set (1.02) and seven blocks shy of cracking the top 10 in total blocks with 357. Smith led Washburn with 534 digs and currently sits in 10th place all-time averaging 3.19 digs per set.

The History of Washburn Volleyball While the recent success of the Washburn volleyball team may overshadow its beginnings, there were still many successes early in the Lady Blues’ history. Credited with kick-starting Washburn women’s athletics, Janet Nuzman fielded the first competitive volleyball team in Lady Blues’ history in 1969. The results were typical of a fledgling team as the 11 women finished with a 3-9 record, but those ladies helped pave the way for what would become a very successful program. As women’s athletics were growing and defining themselves throughout the 1960s and 1970s, Nuzman had to move the team between six different national and regional affiliations during the first 10 years and it wasn’t until 1980 that Nuzman had scholarship money to give out. The Lady Blues won their first championship by winning the 1978 KAIAW Small College state playoffs. They repeated that feat in 1981 and Nuzman finished her coaching career after that year with a 143-208 overall record. They moved to the Central States Intercollegiate Conference in 1976 and played in their first NAIA tournament in 1984 under coach Linda Moley. In 1985 they set a school record with 45 wins that still stands today and in 1986 they won the NAIA District 10 championship. The team joined NCAA Division II and the MidAmerica Intercollegiate Athletics Conference in 1989 and struggled with the tougher competition. In 1997 the team had its first winning season as a Division II school. In 2002 Chris Herron took over as head coach and he led the Lady Blues to an MIAA title and their first trip to the NCAA tournament in his first season. During Herron’s tenure he has won two conference championships with six trips to the NCAA tournament. Here’s a look at the Lady Blues’ success leading up to their first MIAA titles and NCAA tournament appearances:

Washburn University was established in February 1865 as Lincoln College by a charter issued by the State of Kansas and the General Association of Congregational Ministers and Churches of Kansas. A two-story brick building on the northeast corner of 10th and Jackson Streets was soon erected and the first classes began in January 1866. In 1868, the school was renamed Washburn College, in recognition of a $25,000 donation by Ichabod Washburn, a church deacon and resident of Worcester, Mass. The university was granted a permanent location in 1865 when Topekan Col. John Ritchie donated a 160-acre site, which at the time was a considerable distance southwest of the city. Construction on the first building began in 1872, with occupancy taking place in 1874. For the next two decades, college President Peter MacVicar conducted an aggressive development campaign. His efforts resulted in the establishment of numerous Victorian limestone structures which characterized the campus for the next 90 years. Expansion of the school was constant. The School of Law was organized in 1903, as was a School of Fine Arts and a medical school, which educated physicians until 1913. During the next three decades structures such as the Mulvane Art Museum, Benton Hall and Whiting Field House were added to the campus. In June 1966, a tornado struck Topeka and several historic buildings on campus were demolished. The Washburn community rallied and financial support from friends and alumni made possible the rebuilding of many school facilities during the coming years. Today, university facilities offer more than one million square feet of modern academic and support space. In 1941, the citizens of Topeka endorsed Washburn by voting to establish a municipal university, supported in part by the city and governed by a local board of regents. In 1952, the Washburn Board of Regents officially changed the name of the school to Washburn University of Topeka. In 1999, the university’s primary funding was moved from city property tax to county sales tax sources, with the school retaining status as a municipal subdivision of the state. In addition to local financial support, Washburn has received state funds since 1961, which have been coordinated by the Kansas Board of Regents since 1991. Washburn is governed by its own nine member Board of Regents.

Washburn made the jump to NCAA Division II and the Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association in the early 1990s and experienced immediate success. Since then that success has continued to sustain and grow as Washburn’s athletic teams have won 31 conference championships and one national champion in women’s basketball in 2005. Only one other MIAA team has more MIAA titles since WU became eligible for conference championships in 1990-91. The Ichabod and Lady Blues athletic teams won one MIAA championship during the 2008-09 school year as the Ichabod tennis team won its third title in the last four seasons. Washburn recorded three runner-up finishes during the season while sending eight of 10 teams to postseason play.

Washburn Facilities Weight ROOM The newly completed Capitol Federal Savings Student Athlete Strength and Conditioning Center has nearly 12,000 square feet of space for Washburn athletes to work out. Ichabod Power is based on using free weights and the feet in contact with the floor, using triple extension of the ankle, knee and hip. This type of training is used to develop athletes stability in the joints and trunk, and power in the lower body when in contact with the playing surface. Each multi-rack and Olympic platform allows the Washburn athlete to perform Olympic Lifts on a solid oak surface. The multi-racks are self-contained with all the weight on the rack. This allows the Washburn athlete to perform 90 to 95 percent of their work in one area. The racks and platforms have special features that allow the student-athlete to perform secondary exercises with special attachments. The installation of new equipment transformed Washburn’s weight room into a top-notch facility.
BASKETBALL/VOLLEYBALL COURT On the second level of the Whiting Fieldhouse addition is a court which can house two basketball or volleyball courts or a full size court for each sport for practice. The lighting mounts across the top of the building are also high enough a volleyball tournament could be played on the main court. A viewing area surrounds the practice facility above the court level with enough room for extra workout areas for athletic teams.

The Washburn Athletic Training Center is one of the most advanced in the Midwest. The facility is nearly triple the size of the one it replaced. Steve Ice, Washburn’s Head Athletic Trainer, has been with the Ichabods and Lady Blues athletic programs for more than 25 years. He has a student staff of more than 20. Dr. Iris Gonzalez, the campus physician, is the team’s resident doctor.

St. Francis Sports Medicine provides injury rehabilitation, education and sports enhancement techniques to athletes of all ages and competitive levels. St. Francis and Washburn University established a new partnership in 2005 to provide additional support for their injured athletes. Michael Ramirez, Certified Athletic Trainer for St. Francis, teaches class in the morning and visits the campus every afternoon working with Washburn athletes to get them back on the court or field. Zach Frank will also assist in training room treatments.
