Australian summer tour Billed as the trip of a lifetime, the West Virginia University women’s basketball team traveled to Australia for a two-week summer tour, Aug. 5-17, 2007. That billing far exceeded the travel party’s expectations.

Taking advantage of an NCAA rule that lets programs travel overseas as part of a foreign tour every four years, the Mountaineers headed to the world’s smallest continent for a fivegame summer exhibition tour that brought the squad to Sydney and Cairns, Australia.

After a 21-hour flight that included three legs and a 13 and a half hour non-stop flight, the Mountaineers arrived in Sydney Aug. 7, 2007, and immediately began touring the most populous city in Australia.

In Sydney, a city of about four million and located in the territory of New South Wales, WVU toured Bondi Beach, the Sydney Zoo and Aquarium, the Sydney Opera House District, Darling Harbor, Sydney Harbor and Manley Beach areas. The team also got in some excellent shopping and had the opportunity to view the city, which hosted the 2000 Olympic

ethnical interaction and experience that will most be remembered far after every player that made the trip no longer dons the Old Gold and Blue.

“It was fun, lots of fun,” now-graduated senior forward Chakhia Cole said. “It was a great experience that everyone should do.

Snorkeling, shopping and just hanging out together as a team were some of my highlights.

When I look back on it I’ll be excited. Those are memories not many people have. Who can say they traveled across the world with their college team? We got to understand each other as teammates outside of basketball since we were around each other so much. That will certainly help team chemistry this year.”

the world. Team members also had the opportunity to pet and swim with friendly sea turtles.

“Being in Cairns and getting the opportunity to snorkel in the Great Barrier Reef was one of the best experiences of my life,” then-senior center Olayinka Sanni said. “I would love to have the opportunity to go do that again.”

WVU completed its competition portion of the trip while in Cairns as well, knocking off the Cairns Dolphins 98-50 and Cairns B 95-41.

While WVU won all five of its contests by a margin of 34.4 points, soundly defeating four of those five opponents by 30 or more points, the true purpose of the trip was to reward WVU’s largest rising senior class in program history. The trip proved to be the cultural and

While there, WVU played New South Wales Institute of Sport, Manley Warringah and the ABA Select defeating all three squads 54-49, 78-50 and 80-53, respectively.

From Sydney WVU flew to Cairns, located in the territory of Queensland that boasts a population of about 100,000. The Mountaineers got to snorkel at the world-renowned Great Barrier Reef, visit the Cairns Tropical Zoo and attend a dinner-theatre with the Tjapukai dancers, one of the region’s oldest Aboriginal tribes.

M o u n ta i n e e r s

A Commitment to excellence Since becoming head coach nine seasons ago, Mike Carey has effectively installed his blueprint for building a successful women’s basketball program at West Virginia University.

That plan has paid immediate dividends in the last six seasons as WVU has reached the NCAA tournament three times (2004, 2007, 2008), the WNIT finals (2005), the WNIT second round (2009) and the BIG EAST championship game (2006) in that span.

For the first time in school history, and under Carey’s direction, the Mountaineers have tallied four 21-win seasons in the last six years, including the second-most wins in school history with 25 in 2007-08.

WVU is an impressive 86-27 (.761) in eight seasons against non-conference foes.

Last year the Mountaineers advanced to the

second round of the WNIT, despite a rash of injuries that reduced WVU to just eight healthy bodies. Along the way, WVU defeated national runner up and No. 5 Louisville on the Cardinals’ home court.

Two years ago WVU advanced to the NCAA tournament second round for the second consecutive season and was ranked in the nation’s Top 20 all year for the first time in school history. The largest senior class in school history (7) guided WVU to victories over three nationally ranked teams, including a home victory over 2007 national runner-up Rutgers (ranked No. 4). WVU also boasted a 12-4 record in the BIG EAST, its best finish in league play since joining in 1995-96.

Three years ago WVU advanced to the second round of the NCAA Tournament and just missed

advancing to the Sweet 16 after narrowly falling to national power LSU, 49-43. WVU also posted its then-best finish in BIG EAST play with an 11-5 record, good for fourth in the league – then WVU’s highest-ever finish in the BIG EAST. Five years ago, WVU reached the BIG EAST championship game as the No. 12 seed, defeating three NCAA tournament teams along the way, including No. 1 seed Rutgers in the BIG EAST semifinals. The Scarlet Knights were ranked sixth nationally, making the victory the then-highest ranked opponent WVU had ever defeated in program history.

By buying into Carey’s system - a program revolving around commitment, attitude and work ethic - student-athletes will not only perform to their utmost potential, but they will leave the WVU women’s basketball program as well-rounded individuals.

Beginning with a commitment to the program, a student-athlete is asked to have discipline on and off the court and have a willingness to make a sacrifice for the betterment of the team, whether it’s under the lights of the WVU Coliseum or in the classroom.

Carey believes this dedication needs to be a year-round habit, not just a seasonal duty, that will lead to improved team play and a successful college experience.

A positive attitude is a must in the Mountaineer program. Whether it be in the classroom, weight room or on the court for both practice and games, a positive attitude will lead to physical and mental toughness.

Lastly, possessing a first-rate work ethic leads to building a championship attitude. That ethic comes not only during a game, but in the weight and classrooms. And by maintaining that effort, student-athletes will then gain the confidence needed to be the best they can be.

Facilities

West Virginia student-athletes take pride in knowing that they compete in one of the finest athletic facilities, the WVU Coliseum.

In particular, the WVU women’s basketball team is housed in some of the nation’s superb accommodations on a daily basis.

WVU Coliseum

One of the BIG EAST conference’s finest basketball arenas, the WVU Coliseum seats 14,000 and provides an electric atmosphere for women’s college basketball.

Built in 1969 at a cost of $10.4 million and open for competition in 1970, the WVU Coliseum also serves as home to the WVU School of Physical Education and much of the Department of Intercollegiate Athletics.

It is also the site of competition for men’s basketball, gymnastics, wrestling and volleyball.

Four other sports use the facility as their training and equipment headquarters as well.

The domed arena has been the home of the WVU women’s basketball team for more than a quartercentury, but its many uses include commencement, concerts, conferences, floor shows and a host of educational and athletic events.

Most recently the WVU Coliseum received a contemporary upgrade which included renovations to the men’s and women’s basketball locker rooms, construction of a players’ lounge and team video theater, expansion of the strength and conditioning center and training and equipment rooms as well as construction of a club seating area in the main arena, complete with private space for concessions, hospitality areas and rest rooms under the lower level seats.

A new scoreboard, sound system, arena lighting and floor design were the latest improvements to the facility.

Sound System

In recent years, both men’s and women’s basketball have experienced an unprecedented level of success both on and off the court. The next step in maintaining that success and reaching new heights, all the while honoring past achievement and tradition, lies in the construction of a Basketball Practice Facility.

Utilized by the Mountaineer men’s and women’s programs, this state-of-the-art facility will help showcase Mountaineer basketball and provide the necessary practice, strength and conditioning, sports medicine, team meeting, video, equipment, and locker room facilities all necessary to compete at the highest levels.

This one-of-a-kind structure will provide Mountaineer teams with 24-hour facility access and eliminate the time scheduling battle

currently associated with the WVU Coliseum.

This practice facility will enable WVU Intercollegiate Athletics and Mountaineer basketball to continue to be recognized as one of the top programs on both the conference and national level. This facility is imperative to Mountaineer success on the court, in the classroom, and on the recruiting trail. This facility will continue the storied Mountaineer basketball tradition in which all members of the Mountaineer family can be proud.

A fully equipped training room features a wide range of machines, training tables and a whirlpool for injury prevention and treatment.

Weight Room

Just off the WVU Coliseum court, the weight room houses a full range of Hammer Strength and Bodymaster equipment. The 1,600-squarefoot room also holds Stairmasters and other machines for aerobic and cardiovascular training.

The WVU Coliseum weight center gives Mountaineer cagers a complete and convenient location for this important area of training.

Equipment Room

Located just down the hall from the locker rooms the equipment room has a full complement of uniform and equipment necessities.

Press Row

Press row provides 50 seats for members of the media on the concourse level at the Blue Gate. Four television platforms and several radio locations are also strategically situated at different positions around the arena.

Fan Comfort

At the WVU Coliseum, fan comfort is the utmost priority. Once inside the gates, visitors have access to ticket windows, numerous concession areas, water fountains, rest rooms and first aid facilities.

All 14,000 blue theater-type seats in the main arena allow for comfortable viewing of any event. The ribbed, rafter-less roof and modern architectural design give a clear, unobstructed view of the playing floor from every seat.

When WVU women’s basketball fans fill the Coliseum it becomes an arena unsurpassed in enthusiasm and electricity. The Mountaineers respond to this great home court by making it a very unwelcome place for visitors.

Our strength staff is second to none and I’d put them up against any in the country. The best interest of the student-athlete is always taken into consideration. The foundation for success for our student-athletes begins with strength and conditioning.”

-Coach Mike Carey

mountaineers The lifting portion of the basketball routine is used to improve overall power and explosion with an emphasis on explosive training, acceleration, top speed, vertical jump, coordination and agility. This is accomplished through cycled periodization of Olympic lifts, conventional weight lifting techniques, plyometrics, agility and speed work and proper nutrition along with intense conditioning.

Being Flexible

Good flexibility helps to improve speed, agility and reduces the risk of injury. Each workout is preceded with a dynamic flexibility routine with regular stretching and followed by a postflexibility routine at the end of every workout.

Proper Nutrition

Each athlete is educated on correct dietary habits and essential vitamins and minerals necessary to be an elite athlete. The athletes have the opportunity to meet with nutritionists, go on guided grocery store tours and receive diets designed specifically for them by our dietician.

Weight Lifting

For basketball players, the abdominal and low back regions are the units that tie the upper and lower extremities’ power together. In order to have excellent maneuverability and transfer of power, an athlete must have superior balance and strength in this core region.

Training of the core region occurs daily using balance balls, medicine balls and other basketball specific drills.

2008-09 review

The main training area focuses for the women’s basketball team are anaerobic conditioning, upper and lower body power, agility and quickness, total body explosiveness, neural recruitment, speed, vertical jump and balance.

Basketball’s Primary Training Concentrations

Accomplishing those conditioning requirements occurs in several weight rooms on campus.

Housing almost 15 tons of total weight, the Mountaineer weight room is located in the Puskar Center at Mountaineer Field. The 22,000-square foot weight room features a three-lane track for conditioning and 40 times, one of only two collegiate weight rooms to have such a track. Seven power platforms and 40 pieces of Hammer Strength weight equipment make the facility the envy of all opponents.

Mountaineer women’s basketball players utilize the new state-of-the-art weight room located adjacent to the court at the WVU Coliseum. Housing state of the art free weights and machines and conveniently located to the new training room, the Mountaineers have the best when it comes to working out.

The WVU Department of Intercolleigate Athletics is committed to the promotion of the academic achievement of student-athletes as well as their athletic accomplishment and their personal and career development.

In support of this position, West Virginia University offers a variety of services and programs to help student-athletes maximize their academic potential. Department staff members work with coaches, on campus student service providers and faculty to help studentathletes meet the unique demands of the classroom, the sporting arena and the personalsocial challenges they face as developing adults.

One person who is quick to point that out is athletic director Ed Pastilong, who, along with Coach Mike Carey, has made academics a priority.

Take the Stuart and Joyce Robbins Study Hall and Player Lounge, located at the football complex. Established a decade ago, the spacious center houses 18 computers and two networked printers in more than 10,000 square feet of study space. Areas for group study provide an optimal learning environment for all WVU studentathletes. The facility is open seven days a week and all student-athletes are encouraged to use it.

The study center provides a quiet atmosphere with tutors and one-on-one help for students who need it, and in the Coliseum, the center provides more study space, as well as room for meetings and group sessions. Athletes can use all these centers between classes or after practice in the evenings, with flexible hours tailored to make the most of a student-athlete’s limited time. Athletes may come and go as they please, but make no mistake, they must make the grade.

To help them do that, the WVU student services staff, headed by associate athletic director Garrett Ford, his counselors Sandy ColeDeMent and Ehren Green, and academic advisor Paul Downey, make sure that every studentathlete has the best possible opportunity to obtain a college degree. This process begins as soon as a recruit signs a letter-of-intent to play for the Mountaineers.

“We know everything about incoming freshmen academically before they arrive in the fall,” says Ford. “We know which students are ahead of others and which will require more assistance.”

Beside keeping in touch with freshmen, incoming student-athletes are encouraged to

attend freshman orientation sessions offered for all West Virginia University students during the summer prior to their arrival on campus. This is where new students can learn more about the Morgantown campus and, most important, register for classes.

During pre-registration, all student-athletes, from incoming freshmen to graduating seniors, get advice in scheduling the courses to keep them on track in their degree programs. During the second week of classes, freshmen are enrolled in mandatory study halls, monitored by Ford and his staff. Those who do well during the first semester are given the option of attending study hall, but if their GPA drops below a certain mark, they must return to the mandatory sessions.

During the semester, department officials keep a careful record of each athlete’s academic progress. Class and study hall attendance are checked regularly, periodic grade reports are obtained from instructors, and parents, coaches and players are kept up-to-date on their academic progress.

These measures are succeeding in a noticeable way. Last semester, more than one-third of all student-athletes earned a place on the Athletic Director’s Academic Honor Roll with at least a 3.0 grade-point average.

In the post-eligibility program, former Mountaineer athletes are returning to school to complete work on their degrees, some after as many as 10 years away from Morgantown.

“At West Virginia University, we do everything in our power to assist our student-athletes as they work toward graduation,” Pastilong says.

“We only have one rule — they must do the best they can possibly do. We can assure every student-athlete that the University and the athletic department will do our best. We expect our students to do their best for us.

“Together, we cannot help but succeed. Our success is measured by how much personal growth we see in our young people, and I am proud of every one of our student-athletes in this regard.”

At West Virginia University

“Once a student, always a student”

When a member of the Mountaineer coaching staff preaches the virtues of receiving a good education, they’re not just blowing smoke. WVU athletic director Ed Pastilong has made student academic achievement his primary focus since

West Virginia recently went through its third cycle of the NCAA Division I athletics certification program in 2008-09. A self-study was conducted in these principle areas: governance and commitment to rules compliance, academic integrity, as well as gender and diversity and student-athlete well-being.

While academic accreditation is common in colleges and universities, this program focuses solely on certification of athletics programs.

WVU was one of the first schools nationally to volunteer for the NCAA’s pilot certification program in 1991, and was one of five schools originally certified at that time. The WVU athletics program was recertified by the NCAA in

NCAA Certification

1996 and then again in 2001. At the 1997 NCAA Convention, the NCAA Division I membership voted to change the frequency of athletics certification from once every five years to once every 10 years.

“West Virginia was one of the first two schools to participate in the initial NCAA Certification in 1991,” Director of Athletics Ed Pastilong said. “This enables our University to confirm its commitment to the key values of intercollegiate athletics.”

The study process involved members of the institution’s faculty and staff, as well as athletics department personnel and student-athletes.

When the study concluded, an external team of reviewers conducted an evaluation visit on campus. Those reviewers were peers from other colleges, universities or conference offices.

The peer-review team will report to the NCAA Division I Committee on Athletics Certification.

The Committee on Athletics Certification will then determine the institution’s certification status and announce the decision publicly.

his appointment as athletic director in 1989.

Under Pastilong’s direction, West Virginia has made it a prerogative to graduate its student-athletes.

And it’s happening.

But for those who don’t graduate with their class, there’s still hope. A post-eligibility program was created at the beginning of Pastilong’s administration to give those student-athletes who are close to graduating an opportunity to come back to school to complete their degrees.

Since its creation, dozens of students have participated, with a success rate of better than 80 percent. More than 25 student-athletes from all sports participated in the post-eligibility program last year.

In 1992, under the direction of associate athletic director Garrett Ford, WVU joined the growing list of schools that are a part of an NCAAsponsored consortium. Similar to the posteligibility program in providing former studentathletes a chance to continue work toward their degrees, the closely screened consortium

The numerous challenges that today’s college student-athletes face, both on and off the playing field, are unparalleled in the history of higher education. Unfortunately, many students are not well prepared to face these challenges.

To prepare student-athletes for the demands of college life and beyond, the NCAA has developed the CHAMPS (Challenging Athletes Minds for Personal Success)/Life Skills program.

In the spring of 1995, West Virginia University initiated its own CHAMPS/Life Skills program.

Athletic Director’s Academic Honor Roll

Implemented in 1989 by current athletic director Ed Pastilong, the Athletic Director’s Academic Honor Roll was initiated to honor deserving WVU student-athletes who achieve a 3.0 or better grade-point average each semester.

In addition to the honor roll, a 4.0 club and a team award for the highest GPA were instituted.

Since the program began, more than 3,000 Mountaineers have been honored, including a record 274 during the spring semester, 2001.

Through 28 semesters, the average total of student-athletes earning Athletic Director’s Academic Honor Roll recognition is 150.

Mike carey

head coach | ninth year

With a penchant for continuing to set new standards, Mike Carey enters his ninth season as head coach of the West Virginia University women’s basketball team.

His achievements speak volumes: four 21-win seasons in six years (a school record); three consecutive postseason appearances (a school record); the second-best four-year span in school history amassing 82 wins (2005-08); 10 career victories over ranked opponents including the highest-ranked team in school history; the highest ranked road team in school history; victories over two eventual national runner-ups; the school’s first-ever BIG EAST championship game appearance; consecutive NCAA tournament appearances (2007, 2008) and three trips in five years (2004, 2007, 2008).

In eight seasons at WVU, Carey has posted a 150-101 (.598) overall record. Under his direction, WVU is 74-22 (.771) against non-conference opponents including an impressive 43-3 mark

against non-league foes at the WVU Coliseum.

In 2008-09, Carey engineered perhaps his best coaching performance as he guided the Mountaineers to an 18-15 record and a WNIT second round appearance with just eight healthy players. Along the way, the Mountaineers defeated eventual national runner-up and No. 5 Louisville, marking the program’s highest-ranked road team ever defeated. WVU also defeated eventual WNIT champion USF at home.

Carey guided Liz Repella and Takisha Granberry to all-BIG EAST second team accolades and guard Sarah Miles garnered the league’s Most Improved Player of the Year award.

In 2007-08, the Mountaineers reached new heights under the Clarksburg native. WVU recorded a 25-8 record, the second-most wins in school history, and advanced to the NCAA second round for the second consecutive season. WVU was ranked in the nation’s Top 20 in both major polls in the season’s entirety for the first time in school history, reaching as high as No. 11 in both the Associated Press and ESPN/USA Today Coaches’ Poll.

In league play, the Mountaineers compiled a 12-4 record and finished third in the nation’s toughest conference – their highest finish since joining the BIG EAST in 1995-96. Carey also notched his 400th coaching victory with WVU’s win at Rhode Island.

Olayinka Sanni garnered honorable mention All-America honors and was named to the all-BIG EAST first team for the second consecutive season.

Meg Bulger and LaQuita Owens garnered second team recognition.

In 2006-07, Carey led WVU to a 21-11 record and advanced to the NCAA tournament’s second round. Equally impressive, WVU finished with an 11-5 mark in the BIG EAST. The Mountaineers finished fourth in the league earning their then highest-ever regular season finish since joining the BIG EAST in 1996 and notching a firstround championship bye.

Three Mountaineers also garnered allconference accolades en route to postseason success: Sanni (first team), Owens (second team) and Chakhia Cole (honorable mention).

West Virginia reached the 2006 BIG EAST championship game for the first time in school history. Along the way, WVU, seeded No. 12, knocked off No. 5 Louisville in opening round action, No. 4 St. John’s in the quarterfinals and No. 1 seed Rutgers in the semifinals (ranked sixth nationally). It marked the first time in the 23-year history of the BIG EAST tournament that a 12seed had won a game, let alone advanced to the championship contest.

The win over the Scarlet Knights marked the then-highest ranked opponent WVU had ever defeated in program history. Junior guard Britney Davis-White and sophomore guard Cole each garnered all-BIG EAST tournament team honors. WVU also knocked off No. 11 DePaul in regular season action at the WVU Coliseum.

mountaineers coaching staff profiles outlook the big east opponent info 2008-09 review the record book

In 2004-05, WVU posted a 21-13 campaign and reached the postseason WNIT championship game. In 2003-04 the Mountaineers notched a 2111 season, the third-most wins in school history, and reached the NCAA tournament for the first time in 12 seasons.

In 2005-06, Carey guided Meg Bulger to Associated Press honorable mention All-America accolades and all-BIG EAST second team recognition.

In 2004-05, Carey guided guard Bulger and point guard Yolanda Paige to honorable mention All-America honors and all-BIG EAST first and second team honors, respectively. Bulger, a unanimous first team selection, became the first Mountaineer in school history ever named to that team.

Paige, who shattered every WVU assist and minutes played record, led the nation in assists with 297 and became the first BIG EAST player taken in the 2005 WNBA draft by the Indiana Fever with the 16th overall selection.

During that season Carey notched his 350th career victory with an 81-50 win at home against Syracuse.

Carey was named 2003-04 BIG EAST Coach of the Year, as voted by the league’s coaches, in just his third season.

Under Carey’s guidance, West Virginia won six more games than it did in all of the previous seasons in the always tough BIG EAST conference, finishing with a mark of 10-6. It was the secondbest league turnaround from one season to the next in BIG EAST history.

Carey guided WVU to victories over two ranked teams in 2003-04 with wins over No. 19/21 Virginia Tech during the regular season and upsetting No. 23/23 Villanova in quarterfinal round action of the BIG EAST tournament. Those wins marked the first time in school history that WVU defeated two ranked teams in the same season.

The victory over the Wildcats advanced WVU into the BIG EAST tournament’s semifinals for the first time in school history.

Six years ago, three Mountaineers garnered all-conference recognition under Carey’s guidance: freshman Meg Bulger was named freshman of the year; sister and senior guard Kate Bulger was named to the conference’s second team; junior point guard Yolanda Paige was named to the third team and became the first Mountaineer named to the BIG EAST alltournament team.

He became WVU’s sixth women’s basketball coach in March, 2001, after 13 seasons as head men’s coach at Salem College.

Given the task of resurrecting the women’s program, he was no stranger to rebuilding programs and making them a winner.

So it was to no one’s surprise the magic that Carey worked with holdovers from a 5-22 campaign and only a few newcomers in his first year.

He took the program one step farther the next season, in 2002-03, as he guided WVU to its first winning season since 1996-97 with a 15-13 mark and back to the BIG EAST tournament for a consecutive season. Carey also directed Kate Bulger, Sherell Sowho and Paige to all-BIG EAST honors, then the first time in school history the Mountaineers had three players receive all-conference recognition in the same season.

Kate Bulger was also a third-team BIG EAST performer in 2002-03.

But his efforts didn’t stop there. Carey’s second recruiting class was ranked 16th nationally by All-Star Girl’s Report, one of the nation’s leading scouting service.

His third recruiting class that consisted of Yelena Leuchanka and Meg Bulger was rated the fourth-best class in the nation for a class of two or less by All-Star.

During the early signing period of 2003-04 campaign, Carey inked the 17th-best recruiting class by All-Star.

Prior to his arrival at WVU, Carey served as the head men’s basketball coach at Salem College (Div. II) in Salem, W.Va. Before he took the reins of the program, the Tigers posted an 8-19 mark in the 1987-88 season. In Carey’s first season, the program suffered just one losing campaign during his regime.

In 13 seasons, Carey’s Salem teams made seven postseason appearances (two NAIA and five NCAA Division II) and won five WVIAC championships (1993, 1994, 1997, 1998, 1999).

Three times the WVIAC tournament champion, the Tigers were twice participants in the Division II Elite Eight, ranked No. 1 in the country during two seasons and played in the Division II Final Four in 1997. A four-time WVIAC coach of the year (1994, 1997-99), Carey twice was named NCAA Division II East Region coach of the year (1997, 1999).

In his last season before coming to Morgantown, Carey’s Tigers were 26-7, ranked as high as No. 4 nationally and advanced to the NCAA East Region finals. Carey’s career record at Salem was 288-102; his record during the last five years of his tenure was 138-20. He had also served as director of athletics at Salem since 1989.

For the first time since the 1977-78, the Mountaineers boast no seniors. Redshirt juniors Madina Ali and Vanessa House would have been seniors on this year’s squad, but injuries last year afforded them medical redshirt opportunities, thus leaving no seniors on the 2009-10 Mountaineer squad.

We’ve Seen These Folks Before

Miles added 22 points and 10 rebounds against the Cards in knocking off the highest-ranked road team in WVU annals.

All told, she tallied six 20-point efforts last year with 22 double-figure scoring games. A pure twoguard with point guard skills, the sky is the limit this year for Miles.

New Faces to the Schedule

The Quintessential Student-Athlete

WVU will take on five non-conference foes that it faced last season. The Mountaineers tangle with Duquesne, in Pittsburgh, Marshall, in Charleston, and play host to Longwood, Fresno State and Santa Clara. West Virginia was a combined 5-0 against those teams last season.

Radford and Nevada will take on the Mountaineers this season, marking the firstever meeting between those teams and WVU. WVU also takes on Towson, Maine and UMBC, squads the Mountaineers have not faced for many seasons.

Preseason WNIT

West Virginia enters its first-ever preseason WNIT, beginning Nov. 13, at 7 p.m., when it plays host to Towson at the WVU Coliseum. Also appearing in the 16-team tournament will be New Mexico, Northern Colorado, Florida Gulf Coast, UTEP, Georgia Tech, Winthrop, Oklahoma State, Arkansas-Little Rock, Ohio State, Eastern Illinois, Bowling Green, Chicago State, Marist and North Carlina A&T. The winner of the WVU-Towson game will play the winner of Marist/North Carolina A&T in the quarterfinals.

I Can See For Miles and Miles ...

Junior guard Sarah Miles enters the 2009-10 season as the reigning BIG EAST Most Improved Player of the Year. Last year the San Antonio native averaged 12.2 points and 5.3 rebounds per game, while starting all 33 contests.

Miles proved her importance to the team especially when she helped WVU upset national runner-up and No. 5 Louisville on its home floor.

Look up the word student-athlete and don’t be surprised if junior guard Liz Repella’s photo is right beside it. The poster child for on-and-off-the-court efforts, Repella is clearly one of the hearts and souls of this year’s team.

On the court, Repella is fresh off earning all-BIG EAST second team accolades last year after averaging a team best 16.5 points and 8.1 rebounds per game. She became just the fourth player in school history to score 500 or more point and grab 250 more rebounds in the same season.

And she started all 33 contests, averaging 35.5 minutes per game.

Off the court, Repella, an exercise physiology major, garnered the BIG EAST’s Scholar Athlete Sport Excellence Award and was an academic allDistrict II first team honoree. It’s clear that Repella is one of WVU’s prized possessions both on the hardwood and in the classroom.

Here’s a look at four Mountaineers to score 500 or more points and grab 250-plus rebounds in the same season: Year Player Points/Rebounds 2009..........Liz Repella...........543 points, 268 rebounds 1994.......Lisa Szymczak.........522 points, 284 rebounds 1992....... Donna Abbott.........502 points, 263 rebounds 1986.....Georgeann Wells......511 points, 348 rebounds

The Replacements

Coach Mike Carey and the Mountaineers return three starters from last year’s 18-15 team. Due to graduation and attrition, the Mountaineers must

Junior Korinne Campbell is now eligible to play for WVU after sitting out last year in compliance with NCAA transfer rules.

Campbell previously played in 65 career games, with 19 starts, averaging 6.2 points and 6.5 rebounds per game at Minnesota. A versatile swing player, Campbell is a threat in the paint and from the perimeter.

Home records Under Carey

Campbell Ready To Go

opponent info

.The Mountaineers are 84-25 (.771) all-time in the WVU Coliseum under the tutelage of Mike Carey, including a dominant 43-3 against nonconference foes at home. .WVU has yet to have a losing season at home under the direction of the Clarksburg native.

Sophomore center Natalie Burton, thrust into the limelight early in her career due to WVU’s early season injuries last year, returns after starting 31 of 33 games last year, averaging 4.8 points and 4.9 rebounds.

She gained valuable experience, and coupled with a full offseason in the strength and conditioning, Burton is ready to use her 6-5 frame in the Mountaineer frontcourt this season.

television households in the U.S. Since opening its doors in 1979, the league has won 26 national championships in six different sports and 126 student-athletes have won individual national titles.

The BIG EAST has enjoyed tremendous basketball success, especially in this decade.

In 2008-09, the BIG EAST produced four of the eight Final Four teams in men’s and women’s basketball. It was only the second time in NCAA history that one conference placed that many Final Four teams in the same season.

In 2003-04, Connecticut became the first school in NCAA history to win the men’s and women’s NCAA basketball titles in the same season. In ’02-03, the BIG EAST became the first conference in NCAA history to win the men’s and women’s titles in the same year when the Syracuse men and the Connecticut women captured their respective national championships. In men’s basketball, BIG EAST squads have won three of the last 11 NCAA championships. BIG EAST women’s teams have taken six of the last 10 NCAA titles.

Proactive movement has been a signature strategy for the conference that was born in 1979. The BIG EAST continually turns challenges into opportunities to become stronger.

In 2009-10, the BIG EAST will add men’s lacrosse to its growing list of sports, which will

BIG EAST football has maintained its high profile and its reputation as a balanced group.

Seven of the league’s eight squads were nationally ranked or received votes in the national polls in 2008. Cincinnati was the league champion. The BIG EAST, a charter member of the Bowl Championship Series, has won three of its last four BCS bowl games. West Virginia, Louisville and Connecticut also have won or shared league crowns over the past four seasons.

The BIG EAST has continued to produce student-athletes who were at the forefront of athletic and academic achievement. In 200809, 19 BIG EAST players were chosen to their respective ESPN The Magazine Academic AllAmerica Teams, including eight first-team selections. Nearly 400 student-athletes have earned academic all-America honors.

The BIG EAST became the nation’s largest Division I-A conference in 2005-06 when five new members began competing. The new schools were: University of Cincinnati, DePaul University, University of Louisville, Marquette University and the University of South Florida.

BIG EAST institutions reside in nine of the nation’s top 34 largest media markets, including New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, Washington, D.C., Tampa, Pittsburgh, Hartford, Milwaukee and Cincinnati. With its newest members, BIG EAST markets contain almost one fourth of all

media info

With 30 years under its belt, The BIG EAST Conference continues on a path of success in and out of the athletic arena. The goals have always been the same. The league wants and expects to compete at the highest level and does so with integrity and sportsmanship. The commendable performances of the student-athletes at BIG EAST schools are the indicators of the league’s proud tradition of success.

The BIG EAST has gone through membership changes since its birth, but the 2009-10 academic year will mark the conference’s fifth straight with the same 16-member group, the nation’s largest Division I-A conference.

In 2008-09, BIG EAST student-athletes again succeeded on the national stage. The Connecticut women’s basketball team won its sixth national championship by defeating conference foe Louisville in an all-BIG EAST NCAA title game. The Notre Dame women’s soccer team reached the NCAA championship game and the Syracuse field hockey squad advanced to the NCAA Final Four.

Three BIG EAST women’s cross country teams finished in the top 10 at the NCAA Championships.

West Virginia was fourth followed by Villanova in sixth place and Georgetown in ninth.

Individually in women’s sports, Providence’s Dannette Doetzel won the 10,000 meters at the NCAA Outdoor Track & Field Championships.

Connecticut’s Maya Moore was the conference’s sixth winner of the Wade Trophy as the top player in women’s basketball. Notre Dame’s Kerri Hanks won the Hermann Trophy, the top award in women’s soccer.

On the men’s side, Connecticut and Villanova advanced to the Final Four in basketball. The 2008-09 campaign was arguably the best men’s basketball season in the history of the BIG EAST with the league setting NCAA standards with three No. 1 tournament seeds, four teams in the round of the Elite Eight and five in the Sweet 16.

The St. John’s men’s soccer team reached the NCAA College Cup before losing in the national semifinals.

increase its total to 24 sport championships. The first women’s golf championship was held in the spring of 2003. Women’s lacrosse and rowing were added in 2001.

The BIG EAST became a reality on May 31, 1979, following a meeting of athletic directors from Providence College, St. John’s, Georgetown and Syracuse universities. Seton Hall, Connecticut and Boston College completed the original seven school alliance.

While the membership has both increased and changed, the focus of the BIG EAST has not wavered. The conference reflects a tradition of broad based programs, led by administrators and coaches who place a constant emphasis on academic integrity. Its student athletes own significantly high graduation rates and their record of scholastic achievement notably show a balance between intercollegiate athletics and academics.

Any successful organization has been fortunate to have outstanding leadership. Michael Tranghese, the league’s first full-time employee, and for 11 years the associate to Dave Gavitt, became Commissioner in 1990. In his first year, he administered the formation of The BIG EAST Football Conference.

For 2009-10, the BIG EAST will undergo one significant change. Tranghese stepped down from his position on June 30, 2009.

John Marinatto, who has served as senior associate commissioner, has moved into the Commissioner’s chair.

The league has long been considered a leader in innovative concepts in promotion and publicity, particularly regarding television. Those efforts have resulted in unparalleled visibility for BIG EAST student athletes. The conference has enjoyed long-standing relationships with CBS, ESPN, Inc. and ABC. BIG EAST men’s basketball games are regular sellouts at campus and major public arenas, including the annual men’s BIG EAST Championship in Madison Square Garden. The women’s basketball championship has led all conferences in attendance for the past six years. Attendance figures also are significant in soccer and baseball.

More than 550 BIG EAST student-athletes have earned all America recognition and dozens have won individual NCAA national championships.

The BIG EAST has been well represented in U.S. or foreign national and Olympic teams. Several athletes earned gold medals in each of the last six summer Olympiads.

The BIG EAST has its headquarters in Providence where the conference administers to more than 5,500 athletes.

The 2008-09 WVU women’s basketball season will arguably go down in school annals as coach Mike Carey’s best coaching performance.

After a rash of season-ending injuries knocked out three key players by only game seven of the season, Carey was reduced to just eight healthy players, four of which only had Division I basketball experience. The result was an 18-win season, a second round WNIT appearance and the highest-ranked road victory in school history against a national power. And along the way Liz Repella, Sarah Miles and Natalie Burton came into their own, showing that the future was extremely bright.

WVU started off the season winning seven of its first eight contests, and 10 of its first 12 before non-conference play got underway, which included a two-game road trip out West against Fresno State and Santa Clara. In league play, the Mountaineers stumbled out of the gate, going 1-7 with a lone win coming over St. John’s, as attrition wore the team down.

Heading into a matchup at No. 5 Louisville,

the nation’s eventual national runner-up, no one expected much out of the Mountaineers. But in a David vs. Goliath moment, the Mountaineers knocked off the Cardinals, 79-70, by scoring 54 second half points.

Later on, the Mountaineers defeated USF, the eventual WNIT champion, at home 90-75 and defeated Coppin State 70-40 in opening round action of the WNIT. The Coppin State win marked Carey’s 150th victory at WVU. Senior guard Granberry and Repella became the second set of teammates in school history to score 500 or more points in the same season. Granberry, who garnered all-BIG EAST second team honors, also set a new single season school record by hitting 94 3-pointers, breaking Kate Bulger’s previous mark of 92 set in 2003-04.

Granberry also set a single game 3-point field goal percentage mark of 88.9% (8-9) in WVU’s victory over New Jersey Tech.

Repella, an all-BIG EAST second team performer as well, became the fourth Mountaineer in school annals to tally 500 points

wvu has won four straight capital classics and seven of the last eight.

and record 250 Rebounds in the same season.

An ESPN The Magazine all-District II first team honoree, Repella also garnered the BIG EAST’s Scholar-Athlete Sport Excellence Award which recognizes academic and athletic achievements as well as community service.

Sarah Miles had a breakout season and was named the BIG EAST’s Most Improved Player of the Year and garnered the league’s Player of the Week honor for her 22-point and 10-rebound effort in helping to knock off Louisville.

Ashley Powell finished her career third in assists and second in career games played, while freshman Natalie Burton, who was projected to garner a redshirt after coming to the Mountaineers from Australia, obtained key experience in her true freshman season as she appeared in all 33 contests with 31 starts.

Despite the rash of injuries, Carey made best with what he had and in the end the Mountaineers salvaged what could have been a disaster, due to the injury bug, and posted a respectable season.

Home Records Under Carey

History Made With Upset at No. 5 Louisville

• WVU is now a perfect 4-0 against Louisville in regular season play and 5-2 all-time in series play.

• WVU has won both of its games at Louisville and both have now come against ranked Cardinals teams.

Pounding the Glass

West Virginia hit the glass early and often in the 2008-09 season. WVU held a +3.1 rebounding margin and grabbed 54 Rebounds against USF, 52 52 against North Carolina Central and Northeastern, 51 against Longwood and 50 in the win at Fresno State. The Mountaineers grabbed 49 against Mercyhurst, 48 against Duquesne, 47 in the loss to Iona, 46 against FIU and 45 against New Jersey Tech.

Granberry’s Grand Day

Senior Takisha Granberry was lights out from 3-point range in WVU’s 76-42 victory over New Jersey Tech in opening round action of the Dead River Company Classic in Orono, Maine.

The Charlotte, N.C., native was so lights out, in fact, she set a new school record for 3-point field goal percentage based on a minimum of seven attempts.

For her efforts, she went on to win MVP honors in that tournament.

Against the Nationally Ranked

Under the direction of coach Mike Carey, WVU has defeated 10 ranked teams since 2001-02, including a 79-70 win at No. 5 Louisville last season - the highest ranked road team WVU has ever defeated.

Two seasons ago, WVU defeated three ranked foes including a 63-54 home victory over No. 4 Rutgers, a 56-50 win over No. 14 Notre Dame and a 56-35 rout of No. 18 Pitt. The triumph over the Scarlet Knights was the second in the last three years while the win over the Fighting Irish marked the second-ever against UND and was the first meeting while both teams were ranked.

Two year’s ago, WVU won at No. 20 Louisville, 76-71 in overtime, to close the 2006-07 regular season. WVU also defeated No. 24 DePaul in Chicago, Ill., 74-63, marking Carey’s first victory over a ranked opponent on the road. In 2005-06, WVU defeated No. 6 Rutgers in the BIG EAST semifinals, 56-40, marking the highest ranked team the Mountaineer had ever defeated in program history. WVU also defeated No. 11 DePaul, 82-70, at the WVU Coliseum last year. In 2003-04, WVU knocked off No. 19 Virginia Tech, 69-66, at the WVU Coliseum and No. 23 Villanova in the 2004 BIG EAST quarterfinals, 58-47, in Hartford, Conn.

Repella in Rare Company

Liz Repella’s monster season, one in which she was named to the all-BIG EAST second team as just a sophomore, put her in rare WVU company. She was just the fourth player in school history to tally a 500+ points and 250+ Rebounds in the same season and first to do so since 1994.

500 Point, 250 Rebounds Seasons Liz Repella...............528 points, 261 Rebounds...... 2009 Lisa Szymczak.........522 points, 284 Rebounds...... 1994 Donna Abbott.........502 points, 279 Rebounds...... 1990 Georgeann Wells.....511 points, 348 Rebounds...... 1986

I Can See for Miles and Miles

The emergence of two-guard Sarah Miles made the Mountaineers’ potent perimeter attack that much more dangerous in 2008-09.

Arguably the quickest player on the team, the San Antonio, Texas, native posted five 20-point games on the season and was second on the team with 96 Assists.

With her 23 points in the Marshall win, she was named WVU’s MVP in the Capital Classic, and she tallied 22 points and 10 Rebounds in WVU’s 79-70 win at No. 5 Louisville, earning BIG EAST Player of the Week Honors.

She was named the BIG EAST’s co-Most Improved Player last season along with Villanova’s Laura Kurz.

Excellent Last Six Years

In the last six years and under the direction of Head Coach Mike Carey, WVU has advanced to two straight NCAA Tournament second round games (2007, 2008), the NCAA Tournament (2004), the BIG EAST Championship game (2006) the WNIT Finals (2005) and the WNIT second round (2009).

35 Seasons of Basketball It’s been 35 years since West Virginia first fielded a women’s basketball team, and the difference between today’s team and that first club in 1973 is dramatic.

Due to the implementation in 1972 of Title IX, a mandate by Congress for schools receiving federal monies to provide women with the same athletic opportunities as their male counterparts, West Virginia started the sport in 1973.

Then-athletic director Leland Byrd selected Kittie Blakemore to coach the first women’s team, gave her the keys to one of the University vans, and provided the team with a 10-game regular season schedule against local colleges.

For Blakemore, who had spent the prior 14 years as an instructor in the school’s physical education department, starting the women’s program was a great challenge.

“In the beginning,” remembers Blakemore, “we weren’t sure if we were going to be with the physical education department or the athletic department. We wanted to be with athletics because, financially, they were more stable.

Once that was settled, we found out we had other problems.”

What the former coach refers to was the lack of available talent from which to choose.

Of the 37 players who tried out for the first women’s team, only a handful actually knew how to play the game. One player was told by her high school coach that a good shot should not hit the backboard, so she thought she had blown every bank shot that went in. Another thought that when the team went into a press, she was not allowed to move.

“Basketball had just started in West Virginia, so the girls really didn’t know that much about the game,” recalls Blakemore, a native of Manassas, Va. “I remember going to the first West Virginia high school state tournament and thinking to myself, `Oh my, I’ve got to recruit these girls!’”

Blakemore did find 15 players good enough to play, and after one quit, Blakemore, her assistant Barbara Walker, trainer Diane Nolan and 14 players traveled to West Liberty to play the school’s first women’s game on January 16, 1974. Because team uniforms had yet to arrive, the Mountaineers played with “pinnies” -- a vest-like jersey that ties at the waist. Despite the slight inconvenience, the Mountaineers performed admirably.

Leading throughout, West Virginia captured a 59-55 decision over the NAIA school.

Leslie Sergy paced the Mountaineers with 18 points, with Sara Roberts scoring 11 and Cindy “Sam” Booth and Celeste Knaus each adding eight points. Booth, described as the women’s version of Ernie DiGregorio, was a team favorite.

Though having just one year of organized basketball experience, she displayed uncanny skills in all facets of the game.

The Mountaineers lost their next seven games before besting West Liberty again, 42-38. In all, West Virginia lost 10 of 14 games that season, but it didn’t take WVU long to have a winner.

The following season, with more time to practice and a little more money to spend, West Virginia won 13 of 17 games and followed with a sterling 19-7 record and a state title in 1977.

The team’s top player was Mary Hennen, whom Blakemore convinced to join the team as a sophomore.

Hennen, at 5-11, was one of the team’s tallest players. A native of Wheeling, the forward led the team in scoring each year she played and totaled 1,112 career points to become the first WVU player to pass 1,000 career points.

She scored a then school-best 33 points against Salem in 1976, and averaged 13.2 points per game for her career.

After the 1977-78 season, during which West Virginia posted an 18-9 record and finished second in the state tournament, WVU and Marshall were forced to leave the West Virginia Intercollegiate Athletic Conference because the schools were “too big” for the smaller colleges.

Subsequently, West Virginia competed as an independent and its record dipped to 9-16.

The following year, WVU lost 19 of 29 games and, in 1981, the Mountaineers went 15-18.

There was, however, one significant event that took place during this period. Cathy Parson, a brilliant guard from Frederick, Md., was given a partial scholarship to attend WVU -- the first athletic grant given in women’s basketball. It was bumped to a full scholarship a year later when J.D. Drummonds and Patricia Ryan were offered full rides. Parson scored 2,128 points during an outstanding career that culminated with a third team All-America citation in 1983.

One of the school’s all-time great players, her retired jersey and a plaque rest in a trophy case located in the halls of the WVU Coliseum. Parson was elected to the WVU Sports Hall of Fame in 1996, making her the first female ever to be bestowed with that honor.

Following the 1981 season, Blakemore

WEST VIRGINIA WOMEN ’ S BASKETBALL

Upon retiring from the Mountaineer bench in 1992, she maintained close contact with the women’s basketball program as WVU’s senior women’s administrator, a position in which she served until her retirement in 1997.

Because of her dedication and interest, the athletic programs at West Virginia University will benefit for many years to come.

Blakemore was selected to the West Virginia University Sports Hall of Fame in 2003.

the big east opponent info

Four of her teams won 20 or more games in a season and she helped develop the University’s first and only Kodak All-American in Rosemary Kosiorek. Her influence on women’s athletics reached far beyond the Mountain State. Through her service on several prestigious national committees, Blakemore had an impact on the development of women’s basketball and is recognized as one of the sport’s true pioneers.

2008-09 review

The women’s basketball program was started by Kittie Blakemore in 1973, and like a nurturing mother, she has kept a close eye on it ever since. As the school’s head coach from 1973-92, she won 301 games and guided three postseason teams, two of which qualified for the NCAA tournament.

HEAD COACH 1973-92

wvu

West Virginia comfortably ahead, Wells took a full-court pass from Lisa Ribble and soared to the basket for a one-handed stuff. The dunk instantly made her a national celebrity. Network television, Sports Illustrated, an NCAA luncheon in New York, a display in the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame and induction into Houston’s Phi Slama Jama dunking fraternity were just a few of the highlights of one of the school’s most memorable moments. Unmatched until 1994, the feat is still one of the sport’s most talked about accomplishments.

Lost in all of the dunking hoopla was Wells’ teammate Olivia Bradley. A 6-1 rebounding warrior from Bradenton, Fla., it was Bradley who made it possible for the 6-7 center to get out on the wing for the historical dunk. Bradley snared an amazing 1,484 career rebounds for a 12.7 per game average, the eighth-best mark in NCAA history.

After another 17-12 mark in 1984, West Virginia, with Fiske now promoted to co-head coach, boasted the strongest team in its 10year existence. WVU returned all five starters, including Wells and Bradley. The duo led WVU to its second 20-win season and, more importantly, steered the Mountaineers to the Women’s NIT in Amarillo, Texas. Though losing two of three games, the inclusion in the eight-team tournament was a major stepping stone for the growing program.

Then in 1986, it all came crashing down for Fiske. Entering the season with an inexperienced team, the late coach, suffering from diabetes, spent his extra time teaching the young team, rather than caring for his physical ailment.

Flying back from the Orange Bowl Classic in Miami, he went into diabetic shock and nearly died on the plane. He subsequently lost his sight and was unable to continue to coach. Volunteer

hired Bill Fiske as an assistant coach to help with the growing burdens of recruiting and strategy.

Fiske had coached high school basketball in Florida for several years and was known as a basketball strategist.

The Blakemore-Fiske combination steered West Virginia to an outstanding 20-11 record in 1982, the school’s first 20-win season. The most memorable win during that landmark campaign was an 81-79 upset over Penn State at the Coliseum, the school’s first victory over the Nittany Lions.

Joining the NCAA in 1983 after seven years in the AIAW, the Mountaineers also spent their first season in the Atlantic 10 Conference, which was created in 1976 for men’s basketball and known as the Eastern Eight up until that time.

WVU recorded a 17-12 mark that season and advanced to the semifinals of the conference tournament.

The talk of the team that year wasn’t about its second straight winning season, but rather about a 6-7 center who could dunk a basketball.

Georgeann Wells came to WVU as a highly touted prep star from Northland High in Columbus, Ohio.

After a short time of adjustment, she averaged 11.9 points per game as a freshman. She went on to score 1,484 points, pull down 1,075 rebounds and block 436 shots from 1983-86, all remarkable accomplishments. But to most, the points, the rebounds, the blocks ... all that was fine. But Wells could dunk, and dunk hard!

Performed several times in scrimmages and once waved off in a game against Massachusetts during the 1983-84 season due to an offensive foul, Wells was ready to make history.

The opportunity came against Charleston on December 21, 1984 at Elkins’ Randolph County Armory during the Mountaineer Christmas Classic. With 11:18 remaining in the game and

assistant Scott Harrelson and Blakemore finished the season with a 12-17 record, impressive considering the circumstances.

Promoted to assistant head coach the following season, Harrelson and Blakemore steered the Mountaineers to a 28-29 record the next two years, before guiding WVU to a brilliant 24-8 mark in 1989.

Among those teams West Virginia defeated in 1989 were Alabama, Oklahoma, Rice, Arizona State, Western Kentucky, Penn State and St. Joseph’s. Beating Penn State in the first round of the Atlantic 10 tournament, the Mountaineers then upset St. Joseph’s in the semifinals and defeated Temple, 63-54, in the championship to secure their first-ever Atlantic 10 title and NCAA tournament berth. Defeating Western Kentucky 66-57 in the first round, the Mountaineers lost to Virginia in the second round to end an improbable season.

Senior Jenny Hillen paced West Virginia at 15.8 points per game, followed by Judy Eaton at 13.8. Other standouts on that team included Dionne Morris, Tracey Slogik and an outstanding group of freshmen in Rosemary Kosiorek, Donna Abbott, Lori Wilson and the late Jocelyn Branham. Three years hence, that group evolved into the finest senior class in school history.

After a 19-10 record in 1990 and a 17-12 mark in 1991, West Virginia was prepared for an outstanding 1992 season, as was Rosemary Kosiorek. The Baltimore native averaged more than 20 points per game as a junior and earned mention on the Kodak all-East team.

There was nothing the diminutive point guard couldn’t do. She could shoot, she could pass, she could dribble past anyone and she could score. Averaging more than 24 points, Kosiorek also averaged more than seven assists to rank

among the nation’s leaders in both categories.

While she was scoring, Donna Abbott was rebounding. A prolific scorer early in her career, Abbott threatened Cathy Parson’s school scoring record until a nagging knee injury slowed her.

Playing with considerable pain most of her career, Abbott still managed more than 1,500 points and 1,000 rebounds.

After defeating Florida in the season opener, West Virginia lost to only Virginia and Western Kentucky the rest of the way to finish the regular season at 25-2. Ranked as high as No. 10 in the nation, West Virginia cracked the nation’s Top 25 for the first time in school history after an 81-60 home win against Arkansas.

Losing to Duquesne in a dramatic upset in the first round of the conference tournament cost West Virginia a possible No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament. Still seeded fourth, the Mountaineers defeated Clemson 73-72 in front of more than 8,000 fans at the Coliseum in one of the finest moments in school history.

Backup Jodie Runner nailed a short jumper with seconds remaining to capture the decision. The storybook season ended a week later with a loss at powerful Virginia, 103-83.

Kosiorek secured Kodak All-America honors and also was named the Frances Pomeroy Naismith national player of the year.

She finished her career scoring more than 2,000 career points and is considered by most to be the school’s finest all-around player ever. Like Cathy Parson, her jersey and a plaque reside in the WVU Coliseum.

At 26-4, West Virginia finished ranked No. 14 in the nation by USA Today and No. 11 by AP. After the season, Kittie Blakemore retired, ending an outstanding reign during which she accumulated 301 career wins and three

postseason berths during 19 seasons.

The program struggled for three seasons under Scott Harrelson, posting three straight losing marks. Harrelson then gave way to Susan Walvius in 1995. Walvius directed West Virginia to 12-15 and 19-12 records before leaving for South Carolina.

In 1997, former player Alexis Basil took over the program. The Mountaineer star from 198487 had senior Talisha Hargis to lead the way in her first year. Hargis would finish her career as the third leading scorer in WVU history with 1,751 points. Hargis, who led the Mountaineers in scoring three straight years, also holds the school records for free throws made (530) and attempted (750) and recorded 20 or more points in a game 33 times.

Basil boasted four seniors on the 199899 squad, all of whom reached the coveted 1,000-point plateau. Maria Tchobanova finished her career with 1,426 points, ninth best on WVU’s all-time list, while Christie Lambert scored 1,282 points to place her 11th, Rebecca Burbridge, named the 1999 BIG EAST Scholar-Athlete of the Year, scored 1,179 points placing her 13th all-time and Ilse Opstaele is ranked 17th all-time with 1,079 career points. It marked the first time in school history that such a prolific scoring corps was assembled on one team.

WEST VIRGINIA WOMEN ’ S BASKETBALL

coaching staff profiles outlook the big east opponent info 2008-09 review the record book wvu

Paige and Bulger were named honorable mention All-Americans by the AP and WBCA/ Kodak, respectively.

Despite his first losing record at WVU (1516), Carey guided the 2005-06 Mountaineers to uncharted territory with a remarkable run to the BIG EAST tournament championship game, marking the first time in school history West Virginia had made it to the title game.

As the No. 12 seed in the tournament WVU knocked off No. 5 Louisville, No. 4 St. John’s and No. 1 Rutgers and trailed No. 2 Connecticut by just one point with 30 seconds left in the championship game.

The run was unprecedented. No previous 12-seed had even won a tournament game in the 23-year history of the BIG EAST women’s championship. The Huskies won the title by a 50-44 count but the Mountaineers captivated the national ESPN2 audience with one of the most remarkable runs in conference tournament history.

Sophomore Chakhia Cole and junior Britney Davis-White were named to the allBIG EAST tournament, while Bulger garnered all-BIG EAST second team accolades and more importantly, Associated Press, honorable mention All-America honors.

All five starters from that remarkable run returned for the 2006-07 campaign and the Mountaineers didn’t disappoint. WVU posted an 11-5 record in BIG EAST play earning its first-ever tournament first round bye as the No. 4 seed en route to a 21-11 overall mark. The league record also marked the second-best turnaround from one regular season to the next in the BIG EAST. WVU also was 13-1 at the WVU Coliseum, the second-best single season home mark in school history and eventually picked up its first NCAA tournament win since 1992 with a convincing 65-52 win over Xavier in Austin, Texas.

media info

The next two seasons were tougher as the squad was on the road for the entire 19992000 season due to asbestos abatement at the Coliseum and suffered through injuries in 200001. The squad finished with a 11-44 overall record, 4-28 in the BIG EAST in those two years.

Basil’s final record stood at 33-77 during her four seasons.

Former Salem College men’s basketball coach and Clarksburg native Mike Carey was named the program’s sixth coach in the spring of 2001, and it didn’t take him long to work his magic. In his third season, Carey put together the third-most wins in school history with a 21-11 campaign in 2003-04. More importantly WVU returned to the NCAA Tournament after a 12-year hiatus. For his efforts, he was named BIG EAST Coach of the Year.

In his first season, Carey guided the Mountaineers to a 14-14 record, a return trip to the BIG EAST Tournament after a one-year absence and the school’s first winning regular season in five years.

In his second season at the helm, Carey led WVU to a 10-0 start en route to a 15-13 mark and the first winning season since 1996-97. The Mountaineers were also 11-0 in non-conference competition for the first time in school history.

In 2004-05, Carey guided WVU to its second-consecutive 20-win season with a 2113 mark and a berth in the postseason WNIT championship game. It marked the first time in school history that WVU posted back-to-back 20-win seasons and back-to-back post-season berths. The Mountaineers won a school record four postseason games while senior Yolanda Paige set the WVU career record with assists at 902 while sophomore guard Meg Bulger captured the BIG EAST scoring crown and became the first player in school history to be named to the league’s first team.

The core of that team once again returned in 2007-08 ready to re-write the record books.

WVU posted a 25-8 record which were the second-most wins in school history. The Mountaineers also boasted a 12-4 BIG EAST mark good for a third-place finish in the highly touted league, WVU’s highest finish in school history.

Along the way, West Virginia upset No. 4 Rutgers, 63-54, the highest-ranked team the program has ever defeated. All told, WVU beat three ranked opponents including No. 14 Notre Dame and No. 18 Pitt.

The Mountaineers were ranked in the nation’s Top 20 in the Associated Press and ESPN/USA Today Coaches’ polls all season long, marking a school first. WVU was also ranked for the first time since 1992.

With the largest senior class in school history, West Virginia boasted four career 1,000-point scorers, marking the second West Virginia team and 12th overall in NCAA history to have four on one team.

WVU advanced to its second-straight NCAA Tournament as a five-seed and faced host No. 12 New Mexico in Albuquerque, N.M., in first round action. Thanks to Cole’s 22 points and 11 rebounds, the Mountaineers squeaked out a 6160 victory in front of 9,633 partisan fans in one of the nation’s most hostile venues. The win gave West Virginia its second-straight NCAA secondround appearance.

Last year, and under arguably Carey’s best coaching job, the Mountaineers posted 18 wins with just seven healthy players as a rash of early season injuries depleted WVU’s reserves. Senior Takisha Granberry set a new single season record with 94 3-pointers made while the duo of Granberry and sophomore Liz Repella became just the second set of teammates to each score 500 points in the same season. Repella became just the fourth Mountaineer in school history to record 500 points and 250 rebounds in the same season while classmate Sarah Miles earned BIG EAST Most Improved Player accolades. WVU also won at No. 5 and national runner-up Louisville, marking the highest-ranked road victory in school history.

In the last six years, under Carey’s direction, WVU has advanced to the NCAA tournament second round (2006-07, 2007-08), the NCAA tournament (2003-04), the WNIT championship game (2004-05), the BIG EAST tournament finals (2005-06)and the second round of the WNIT (2008-09). The team has also posted four 21-win seasons during that time.

Certainly, success and respect have found their way to the Mountaineer women’s basketball program.

Rosemary kosiorek

coaching staff profiles outlook the big east opponent info

A diminutive point guard from Baltimore, Md., Rosemary Kosiorek led WVU to its greatest season ever, a 26-4 mark back in 1992.

There was nothing she couldn’t do. She could shoot, she could pass, she could dribble past anyone and she could score. Kosiorek averaged more than 20 points per game as a junior and earned mention on the Kodak all-East team. She also held the record for most points scored in a single game (37 vs. Marshall) from 1992-1998 and currently holds the record for assists in a game (15 vs. Duquesne, 1992). In addition, Kosiorek racked up 43 20-point games during her career.

Cathy parson

A brilliant guard from Frederick, Md., Cathy Parson is WVU women’s basketball career scoring leader. Tallying 2,128 points during her fouryear career (1980-83), Parson also appeared in a school record 121 career games and averaged 17.6 points per game.

Her career scoring total is even more impressive when considering Jerry West (2,309) and Rod Hundley (2,180) are the only WVU basketball players, male or female, to have scored more points than Parson. She is also the women’s all-time leader in career field goals made (898) and attempted (2,061). Of her 121 games played, Parson registered double figures 108 times. Her 17.6 career scoring average ranks third all-time and she owns a school record 46 20-point games.

A three-time Mountaineer MVP, the 5-7 Parson was the first women’s player to have her jersey retired. She was a three-time allEast selection, an honorable mention AIAW All-America in 1982 and a third team AIAW AllAmerica in 1983. After graduation, Parson was one of 20 players selected to try out for a spot with the Harlem Globetrotters. She also played a season for the Virginia Wave of the Women’s

As a senior, Kosiorek averaged more than 24 points and seven assists to rank among the nation’s leaders in both categories. She secured Kodak All-America honors and was named the Frances Pomeroy Naismith national player of the year.

Kosiorek finished her career scoring more than 2,000 career points, and is considered by most to be the school’s finest all-around player. Her jersey was retired and resides in the WVU Coliseum.

She was named to the West Virginia University Sports Hall of Fame in 2003.

American Basketball Association.

Parson later spent three years as an assistant coach at Providence College and in 1988 accepted the head job at Christopher Newport University in Newport News, Va. While at Newport, she won two Dixie Intercollegiate Athletic Conference Coach of the Year awards and coached Kodak All-American Karen Barefoot, the only player in NCAA history to score 2,000 points and record 1,000 assists. She also took Newport to three Division III tournaments and made the Sweet 16 in 1992.

Parson was head coach of the WNBA’s Washington Mystics for one season in 1998.

Currently, Parson is the head coach at Howard.

In 1983, the talk in Morgantown centered around a 6-7 center who could dunk. The folks weren’t talking about men’s basketball’s newest recruit; they were excited about Georgeann Wells.

Wells came to WVU as a heavily recruited prep star from Northland High in Columbus, Ohio.

After a short time adjusting, she averaged 11.9 points per game as a freshman. Wells went on

to score 1,484 points, pull down 1,075 rebounds and block 436 shots from 1983-86, all remarkable accomplishments. But to most, the points, the rebounds and the blocks were all just window dressing. Wells could dunk, and dunk hard!

She made history against Charleston on December 21, 1984 at Elkins’ Randolph County Armory during the Mountaineer Christmas Classic. With 11:18 remaining in the game and West Virginia comfortably ahead, Wells took a full-court pass from Lisa Ribble and soared to the basket with a one-handed stuff. The dunk instantly made her a national celebrity. Network television, Sports Illustrated, an NCAA luncheon in New York, a display in the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame, the Women’s College Basketball Hall of Fame and induction into Houston’s Phi Slamma Jama dunking fraternity were just a few of the highlights of one of the school’s most memorable moments. Unmatched until 1994, the feat is still one of the sport’s most talkedabout accomplishments.

She was inducted into WVU’s Sports Hall of Fame in the Fall of 2007, and the long lost footage of her dunk was found in the spring of 2009 via investigative reporting by the Wall Street Journal.

West Virginia University is a leading 21st century land-grant institution that is improving people’s lives through teaching, discovery and outreach.

The University’s top priority is education.

Here, teaching means much more than lecturing.

WVU faculty are mentors who engage and involve students through service learning projects, hands-on research, the newest technology, study-abroad programs and innovative curricula.

Students emerge from WVU with a broad liberal arts education and a thorough preparation for successful careers.

Fall 2008 student enrollment on the main campus was 28,840, the highest in WVU history. And beyond record numbers, the incoming freshman class continued a pattern of increasingly high academic credentials.

WVU offers 185 degree programs from the bachelor’s through the doctoral and firstprofessional levels. In 2007-08, WVU awarded 5,806 degrees.

The University offers a wide array of majors, including a highly competitive doctoral program in physical therapy, the nation’s first entirely webbased integrated marketing communications master’s degree, and high quality engineering, education, business, agriculture, creative arts,

and journalism programs.

A partnership with the FBI created the world’s first university-level degree program in forensic and investigative science. Students study the biology and chemistry of crime-fighting and prepare to create technologies that enhance safety in an ever more dangerous world.

The schools of medicine, dentistry, nursing and pharmacy offer a wide range of health science programs at the Robert C. Byrd Health Sciences Center. WVU is also home to the state’s only law school.

WVU students receive more than $215 million a year in grants, loans, work study, fee waivers and scholarships. Awards are based on financial need and academic ability. About 70 percent of WVU undergraduates receive some financial aid; almost half of the aid given to resident undergraduates is as grants and scholarships.

Donors to WVU have contributed to the institution’s growing national stature. In the past year, the WVU Foundation disbursed over $43 million on behalf of the University, and over the past 10 years, it has provided WVU over $360 million in direct support. The Foundation’s assets are in excess of $700 million and its endowment is in excess of $310 million.

The State’s Flagship University

Located in Morgantown, WVU’s main campus is within easy traveling distance of the metropolitan areas of Pittsburgh, Pa., about 70 miles to the north, and Baltimore and Washington, D.C., about 200 miles to the east. Morgantown itself is a comfortably sized community of more than 50,000, including WVU students. Recently, national media outlets such as CNBC have spotlighted Morgantown as an oasis of economic strength in the midst of a global recession. Careerbuilder.com ranked the city as one of the “25 Best Cities to Find a Job.” In recent years, Morgantown has earned

many other accolades. The city was named the No. 1 one small city in America by BizJournals. com and the best small city in the East by Prometheus Publications. Forbes magazine named Morgantown the nation’s 5th “Best Small Metro,” and Inc., an online entrepreneurial website and magazine, ranked it 15th in “Overall Best Cities.” Kiplinger’s Personal Finance magazine listed it 29th among “50 Smart Places to Live.” Recreational and job opportunities were among the factors Men’s Journal cited in naming Morgantown the nation’s third-best small city. A parenting magazine ranked Monongalia County as having one of the country’s top 100 school districts. And WVU’s campus offers one of the nation’s safest college environments—Reader’s Digest ranked it 18th among 135 U.S. colleges and universities and gave WVU an A for its strong commitment to safety.

WVU’s main Morgantown location includes three distinct campuses — Downtown, Evansdale and the Health Sciences campus. The

Campus have recently undergone complete renovations to meet the educational needs of 21st century learners. Colson Hall now houses the Department of English. A $28 million renovation turned Brooks Hall into an environmentally friendly “green building” that houses the Department of Geology and Geography. Oglebay Hall, one of ten campus buildings on the National Register of Historic Places, underwent a $23 million renovation to become a state-of-theart home to WVU’s Forensic and Investigative Science Program. A new lecture hall, Ming Hsieh Hall, opened adjacent to Oglebay.

Cutting-edge learning tools also await students at the Downtown Campus Library.

Group viewing rooms with large plasma screens and wireless keyboards enable students to craft team presentations or watch assigned films on DVD. At other study areas, powerful PCs offer blazing Internet connections. The library also provides laptops with wireless Internet connections for use throughout the building.

In the Life Sciences Building, psychology and biology students learn in sophisticated research labs and multimedia-equipped lecture halls. The building houses a computer lab, therapy and observation rooms and a greenhouse.

To help students maintain physical and mental health, the Student Recreation Center offers a six-lane lap pool and a warmer leisure pool; a 20-person whirlpool; seven courts for basketball, volleyball, and badminton; fitness machines and free weights covering 17,000 square feet; and a 50-foot climbing wall.

In 2006, Lincoln Hall opened as WVU’s first residence hall to operate on an innovative residential college model. Another new residence hall is opening this summer to house high achieving students who participate in the WVU Honors College.

Not all WVU students are in Morgantown.

Potomac State College in Keyser and WVU Institute of Technology in Montgomery are divisions of WVU. The WVU Robert C. Byrd Health Sciences Center has divisions in Charleston and Martinsburg.

WVU offers many online courses and degree programs for students and professionals around the world.

Exceptional Faculty and Students

The WVU community takes pride in its top-notch faculty. Many are nationally and internationally recognized experts in their fields.

In the past 19 years, the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching has honored 16 WVU faculty as West Virginia Professors of the Year. Eight WVU faculty have been named Professor of the Year by the Faculty Merit Foundation, and University faculty consistently win Fulbright grants that provide teaching and research opportunities around the globe.

The work of outstanding teachers is reflected in students’ accomplishments. WVU has produced 25 Rhodes Scholars. Many students have received other prestigious scholarships; WVU students have received 20

Truman Scholarships, 32 Goldwater Scholarships, two Udall Scholarships and two Marshall Scholarships. In 2006, a WVU student was the only person in the nation to win the Goldwater and the Truman awards; in 2009, a previous WVU Truman Scholarship winner received the Goldwater Scholarship and placement on USA Today’s All-USA College Academic First Team.

WVU is a Truman Honor Institution — only 17 schools earned that distinction in 1996, the inaugural year.

WVU students are nurtured and challenged.

The University Honors College involves about 1,400 students each year. WVU’s commitment to students does not focus solely on the high achiever, however. The University supports all students by continually improving the libraries, providing learning centers, computer labs, health service, a counseling center, a disabilities office, a career planning and placement center and an array of other student services.

The Center for Civic Engagement helps students help others while growing intellectually through service-learning projects and trips.

WVU offers a comprehensive First-Year Experience to help students adjust to college life.

Advising, entertainment, and some classes take place in the residence halls, and faculty mentors live next door to help students make the most of their WVU experience.

The Adventure WV Program is an outdoor orientation for first-year students at WVU. It offers participants challenging and exciting experiences and opportunities to learn about themselves, future classmates, WVU, and West Virginia.

A ceremony welcomes freshmen to campus each fall and introduces them to the University’s academic opportunities. The campus also celebrates the start of the academic year with FallFest, a major concert and activities that include film festivals, comedy acts, and more.

WVUp All Night offers students free refreshments and safe, fun weekend activities.

The unique Mountaineer Parents Club, which has chapters throughout West Virginia and across the nation, connects parents with campus life and provides support and encouragement to students. The club currently involves more than 20,000 families. A toll-free helpline (1-800-WVU-0096) enables parents to seek information or share compliments, suggestions and concerns.

To enhance campus life, the University secures a wide range of entertainment — big-

growth. WVU is focusing its efforts on research in energy, health and biomedical sciences and security and intelligence.

WVU, historically a leader in energy research, is poised to help our nation become energy independent and more environmentally responsible. Through the University’s new Advanced Energy Initiative, more than 100 skilled faculty members are performing research on issues such clean power generation, innovative coal extraction technology, and high efficiency engine and vehicle technology. They have executed nearly $100 million in energyrelated research during the past four years alone.

Researchers at WVU’s Robert C. Byrd Health Sciences Center contribute to the health of the state and the world through cutting-edge projects that are focused on areas of health that are especially important to West Virginia. WVU is also the home of the Blanchette Rockefeller Neurosciences Institute, dedicated to the study of Alzheimer’s and other diseases that affect the brain.

outlook

Since its founding in 1867 as a land-grant institution, WVU has developed into the state’s flagship research university. The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching classified WVU as a Research University (High Research Activity). University faculty members secure $141 million annually in sponsored contracts and research grants.

WVU faculty members are studying gene mapping, developing new anti-cancer and antidiabetic drugs, helping forensic investigators solve crimes, creating better materials for building bridges and conducting other cuttingedge research to help improve people’s lives.

The state of West Virginia has created a Research Trust Fund to leverage public and private investments that will transform West Virginia’s economy. WVU will be able to tap into this fund to double private gifts that support research in key areas linked to economic development, health care and job

name concerts and lecturers, films, cultural events, art exhibits and special events such as Homecoming, Mountaineer Week (a tribute to Appalachian culture), and Fall Family Weekend.

Many events, such as the Festival of Ideas lecture series, expose students to a rich diversity of cultures, theories and ideas.

And, with more than 300 student organizations flourishing — including academic, service, political, religious and recreational groups — every student has a chance for extracurricular involvement.

A unique student athletic boosters club, the Mountaineer Maniacs, supports 17 varsity sports programs. An award-winning marching band, some 325 members strong, is a source of pride statewide.

WVU is committed to promoting diversity on campus and protecting the rights of all people to benefit from WVU educational opportunities. oneWVU is an initiative that draws upon the popularity of WVU athletics to raise awareness about diversity.

The University’s international leadership in biometrics led the FBI to name WVU its lead academic partner in biometrics research. Besides having worldwide significance on security issues, this partnership provides WVU students with an academic opportunity unmatched at any other institution in the United States.

At WVU today, there are more than 60 specialized research centers and institutes.

Serving the State

outlook

Sharing WVU knowledge with state citizens and the nation is a major component of the land-grant mission.

For nearly 100 years, West Virginians have trusted their WVU Extension Service agents to be their local source of reliable and timely information. Working with more than 336,000 youths and adults each year, WVU’s Extension Service helps people improve their lives in all 55 counties of West Virginia.

With an office in each county, WVU Extension faculty and staff are nurturing learning partnerships with families, businesses and local organizations. These partnerships bring results. Families live healthier, more satisfying lives; youths who “learn by doing” in 4-H develop leadership skills; farmers and others use resources more wisely; local firefighters and first-responders employ the latest rescue techniques; and citizens revitalize their communities.

The four Health Sciences schools at WVU train hundreds of West Virginians to serve as doctors, dentists, nurses, pharmacists, therapists, and health technicians. All Health Sciences students have access to the hightech facilities on campus and participate in educational experiences in rural and urban areas of West Virginia.

WVU’s health professionals serve more than a quarter-million people each year, at three medical campuses in Morgantown, Charleston and the Eastern Panhandle. In Morgantown, the WVU Hospitals complex includes a children’s hospital, a psychiatric hospital, a trauma center, a cancer center and the state’s most advanced diagnostic and treatment facilities. The WVU Eye Institute provides the entire state with vision-related health services.

As the “Scenic Mountain Home of West Virginia University,” Morgantown is at the very heart of Mountaineer Country. It is also among West Virginia’s fastest growing metropolitan areas. In its May 2006 “Boomtowns ‘06” edition, Kiplinger’s Magazine ranked Morgantown as the “Twenty-ninth Smartest Place to Live” among all U.S. cities with populations under 150,000.

Most recently, in March of 2009, Forbes Personal Finance Magazine recognized Morgantown as the “Third Best Place for Business and Careers” in U.S. cities and The Sporting News recognized Morgantown as one of its top “Best Sporting Cities.” The Greater Morgantown area offers a unique blend of vitality and culture in a friendly atmosphere and has been commended for its low cost of living, excellent health care, low crime rate and easy accessibility.

Situated at the intersection of Interstate 68 and 79, Morgantown is located within a short day’s drive of half the nation’s population.

Just like real estate, outdoor recreation is all about location, location, location.

And Morgantown, nestled deep within the Appalachian countryside, delivers a mountain of opportunities. From peddling to paddling - not to mention swinging a golf club or casting a fishing line - several options enable visitors to assemble a mix-and-match sampler of favorite pastimes and exciting new experiences.

There’s no need to leave the city limits to start enjoying fresh-air activities: nature is intertwined into the very fabric of this riverside community. The Caperton Trail, which runs along the Monongahela River for several miles, rolls past Hazel Ruby McQuain Riverfront Park and Amphitheater (a waterfront cultural and entertainment hub), the WVU Core Arboretum, and historic

downtown. The Caperton Trail welcomes biking enthusiasts and connects to the Mon River Trail and the Decker’s Creek Trail, which has a 1,000 foot incline to nearby Preston County. This beautiful rail trail system allows bikers, joggers and walkers to view landscape of lush rhododendron (WV state flower) and tumbling waterfalls, foul and fauna.

For high intensity adventure, try Class IV or V white water rafting in nearby Preston County along the Cheat River or Big Sandy River. Outfitters run family-friendly Class III trips, and include rock climbing and paintball.

Returning south off of Interstate 68, about 15 minutes outside of Morgantown, Coopers Rock State Forest features a panoramic overlook of the Cheat River Gorge that is absolutely breathtaking and an ideal spot for a picture.

The Mountain Line Transit Authority provides many routes around town. It also provides the Grey Line with a daily trip to Pittsburgh, about an hour away.

But the most unique way to get around, or like a college student, is to travel by PRT, WVU’s own Personal Rapid Transit system.

As the city continues to grow, so does the nightlife, shopping, dining, BIG EAST sports and many scheduled events that continue to call Morgantown home. It is not only a city with a variety of events throughout the year but also a place where you can hike a forest trail, raft a wild river, browse quaint shops, feast at great restaurants, or attend a show or art exhibit. These things are available all year around.

Mountaineer athletic club The Mountaineer Athletic Club is the fundraising organization within the Department of Intercollegiate Athletics at West Virginia University. The MAC’s mission is to provide annual scholarship support to West Virginia University student-athletes and raise private support for capital projects, endowments and other needs as prioritized by the WVU Department of Intercollegiate Athletics.

Annual Giving and Season Ticket Priority

By participating as a MAC donor through the season ticket priority program, you not only receive exclusive, members-only benefits, but also play an important role in ensuring the quality of the athletic program.

Annual gifts enhance season ticket sales, provide financial support for the student-athlete scholarship endowment program and assure MAC donors of season-to-season preferred seating opportunities in football and men’s basketball.

Joining the MAC does not obligate you to purchase priority location season tickets for WVU football and/or men’s basketball, although we hope donors will choose to exercise this option.

For information on the MAC Annual Giving and Ticket Priority programs, call 1-800-433-2072 or visit MountaineerAthleticClub.com.

Supporting Olympic Sports

Philanthropic gifts to benefit our Olympic sports programs truly do make a difference and are sincerely appreciated by our coaches and studentathletes. Similar to major gifts, contributions to our Olympic sports (Baseball, Women’s Cross Country and Track, Gymnastics, Women’s Rowing, Rifle, Men’s and Women’s Soccer, Men’s and Women’s Swimming and Diving, Women’s Tennis, Volleyball and Wrestling) are tax-deductible. Our coaches and student-athletes in these sports rely on private support for locker room improvements, equipment purchases and many other expenses not covered in their operating budgets.

1100 Club

The 1100 Club was founded in 2001 by a small group of loyal WVU alumni and friends who possessed a common drive to provide Mountaineer Football with the resources necessary to successfully recruit “bluechip” student-athletes at the regional and national level. 1100 Club funds help offset the escalating costs associated specifically with airplane travel during NCAA-sanctioned football recruiting periods. Support of the 1100 Club allows Mountaineer Football to recruit and compete for the best football student-athletes in the country and to provide them with all of the tools necessary to be successful once they arrive at WVU.

All 1100 Club members receive an annual recognition gift, quarterly newsletter, and interaction opportunities with Head Coach Bill Stewart and the Mountaineer Football staff. Members of the 1100 Club take pride that their involvement truly has an impact on Mountaineer Football’s quest for BIG EAST championships and national prominence.

Basketball Legacy Fund

The Basketball Legacy Fund has been created to offset two ever-increasing costs associated with top flight basketball programs: recruiting and team travel. Similar to the mission of football’s 1100 Club, all funds in support of Basketball Legacy will go directly towards ensuring that Coach Bob Huggins, Coach Mike Carey and their staffs have the necessary resources to recruit top-tier basketball student-athletes to WVU. Funds will also help support chartered team air travel throughout the season and may be used for facility and locker room improvements.

Varsity Club

Former Mountaineers number in the thousands and the WVU Varsity Club provides a means for all former WVU student-athletes and coaches to remain in contact with their athletic programs and teammates. The Varsity Club exists for the exclusive benefit of former WVU student-athletes and to ensure a bright future for generations of Mountaineers to come.

who have gone the extra mile in support of the Mountaineers.

All major gifts and pledges to the Intercollegiate Athletic Department at West Virginia University, above and beyond ticket priorities, that match or exceed $50,000, qualify for All-American Society status. All-American Society donors are invited to exclusive events with Mountaineer coaches and administrators throughout the year and recognized on campus. In addition, All-American Society donors are recognized at the highest levels in all MAC, game day and departmental publications. All-American Society gifts do not offer season ticket priority, although they may have an impact on season ticket and parking locations should donors also participate in the Mountaineer Athletic Club’s annual giving program.

Endowed Scholarships Increasing athletic scholarship endowments for student-athletes at West Virginia University will allow Mountaineer coaches to continue to recruit the highest-caliber athletes while offsetting the rising cost of tuition. Endowing a scholarship creates a sense of pride in knowing that you have helped fund not only a student-athlete’s education, but also enhanced an athletic dream.

Wheels Club

Jerry West Society Created in 1996 and named after West Virginia University’s most-famous athlete, The Jerry West Society is currently comprised of friends of WVU who believe a strong intercollegiate athletic program can increase the University’s national visibility while enhancing individual character and campus spirit.

Planned giving through the Jerry West Society is vital to the long-term future of Mountaineer athletics. Methods of giving include bequests, trusts, annuities, directed retirement assets, life insurance and real estate. The MAC can provide you the necessary language to ensure that your planned gift intentions are clearly expressed.

retention, increasing WVU’s doctoral program enrollment, enhancing leadership development and increasing operating funds, among other goals.

Dr. Clements’ previous experience in higher education demonstrates his ability to help achieve these objectives, guiding WVU to continued stability, growth and prominence.

Before joining the Mountaineer family, Dr. Clements served as provost and vice president at Towson University, the second largest public university in Maryland. Under his leadership, Towson developed academic and student support programs that led to impressive increases in enrollment as well as retention and graduation rates. Towson’s externally-funded research increased by 36 percent during Dr. Clements’ tenure as provost.

Prior to becoming provost, he served as Towson University’s vice president for economic and community outreach and as the Robert W. Deutsch Distinguished Professor and chair of the Department of Computer & Information Sciences.

He was a four-time recipient of Towson’s Faculty Member of the Year Award given by students at the University.

With a background in computer science, Dr. Clements also brings technological savvy to his role as president. He has a B.S. in computer science and an M.S. and Ph.D. in operations analysis from the University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC), as well as an M.S. in computer science from Johns Hopkins University. His project management textbook, in its fourth edition, is used in more than 20 countries and is published in four languages.

In October 2009, he was named UMBC’s Alumnus of the Year in the Engineering and Information Technology category.

Dr. Clements chairs the boards of the WVU Research Corporation, the West Virginia United Health System, WVU Hospitals and the West Virginia Clinical and Translational Science Institute Executive Advisory Board. He also serves as an exofficio member of the WVU Foundation and WVU Alumni Association boards.

He is married to Beth Clements, and they have four children – Tyler, twin daughters Hannah and Maggie, and Grace.

around seven key areas that impact the vitality and reputation of the University: academic and faculty excellence, research, undergraduate education, graduate education, state impact, health care and multiculturalism and internationalization.

Dr. Clements has already announced several initiatives in support of the plan, including: creating a grants budget office to assist researchers; hiring 100 new faculty members to achieve goals directly related to WVU’s mission; building a new student health facility to increase wellness efforts; dedicating $1.5 million from capital funds to expand recreational space for students; and increasing research to position the University as a leader in fields such as energy, biometrics and health sciences.

Additional priorities will be to continue offering world-class health care and to increase state outreach in the health sciences, to find more efficient and effective ways to use technology to drive progress, to increase the diversity of WVU’s learning community and to develop an even broader global focus in preparing students for new international opportunities.

James P. Clements believes that great universities must operate on the principles of shared governance and community engagement in order to solve problems. Since becoming West Virginia University’s 23rd president on June 30, 2009, Dr. Clements has worked diligently to lay a foundation of cooperation for WVU, strengthening local and global partnerships that not only produce meaningful results for the University, but provide lasting benefits for all West Virginians.

Dr. Clements often says that no university in the country means as much to its state as WVU means to West Virginia. In order to fortify that relationship, he plans to continue positioning the University as a 21st century land-grant institution, providing innovative academic and wellness programs for students, technologically advanced research for use around the globe and substantial service and health-care initiatives for the community.

To achieve that vision, Dr. Clements invited input on a strategic plan, a proposal that will provide direction for the next 10 years, and establishes the groundwork for the next 100. The responses to his “Share Your Vision” survey formed themes

It is truly a great time to be a Mountaineer.

Just ask West Virginia University Director of Athletics Ed Pastilong. Never has total athletic success befallen Morgantown quite like it has over the last six years. And it’s all happened under Pastilong’s watch.

During his 20-year tenure, Pastilong has spearheaded WVU’s growth into one of the nation’s finest athletic departments on and off the playing fields as it competes in 17 varsity sports.

He’s done this through leadership efforts in meeting the demands of running a top-tier organization by keeping up with the times. His vision has helped guide, mold and shape the student-athlete experience into a positive one here at WVU through a successful, across-theboard, total athletic program.

During his tenure, Pastilong has spearheaded more than $65 million in facility renovations, witnessed the department’s budget increase from $20 million to more than $40 million, steered WVU into the BIG EAST football conference in 1991 and into full-fledged member status in the league in 1995. He also initiated the Athletic Director’s Academic Honor Roll, where more than 4,000 student-athletes have been recognized for outstanding work in the classroom, and the WVU sports Hall of Fame, where 120 former Mountaineers have been so honored.

The facility upgrades and capital improvements alone have been staggering. Since 1989, WVU has made tremendous strides to its football facility, Mountaineer Field at Milan Puskar Stadium. Suites to three sides of the stadium, Touchdown Terrace, the Caperton Indoor Practice Facility, new locker rooms, the Reynolds Family Academic Center and the Donald J. Brohard Hall of Traditions highlight the making of WVU’s football facility into one of the nation’s finest.

Other facility improvements under Pastilong’s tenure include renovations to the WVU Coliseum and Hawley Field and the construction of Dick Dlesk Soccer Stadium, Cary Gym for Mountaineer Gymnastics and a state-of-the-art wrestling facility. And a new basketball practice facility is on the horizon in the near future.

On the playing fields, the last six years have arguably been the most successful in the history of West Virginia University athletics. As proof, look no farther than WVU’s No. 30 national ranking in the U.S. Sports Academy Director’s Cup, the school’s best-ever finish in 2008.

Success hasn’t just been limited to on the field, either, as community service has also been at the forefront of WVU’s recent successes. All of WVU’s sports are involved in various levels of community service from the football team and its affiliation with the WVU Children’s Hospital to the women’s basketball and gymnastics teams being involved in Breast Cancer Awareness through national “Think Pink” initiatives. Other varsity sports volunteer their time at local elementary schools’ read-a-louds and at other various community service initiatives.

There’s no doubt that West Virginia University is currently experiencing a Golden Era. With great leadership, tremendous insight and a heartwarming personality, Ed Pastilong can proudly claim it all happened on his watch.

Pastilong joined the athletic department as football recruiting coordinator in 1976 and two years later became its scholarship officer.

In 1979, he was named assistant athletic director for facilities and operations. He spearheaded the planning and management of all home athletic contests, as well as the scheduling and the maintenance of the Coliseum and stadium; Pastilong was also on the board for the planning and building of Mountaineer Field.

He remained director of athletic facilities until his promotion to associate athletic director in 1987.

Prior to West Virginia, Pastilong served football coaching stints at Scott High in Madison, W.Va., and at Salem College, where he tutored the Tigers from 1969-75, winning more games than any other West Virginia Intercollegiate Athletic Conference team during that period. He was also the school’s dean of health and physical education from 1972-75.

He received his bachelor’s degree from WVU in physical education in 1966, and later earned a master’s degree from WVU. As a Mountaineer player, Pastilong lettered in 1964 and 1965, completing 37 of 115 passes for 728 yards and six touchdowns.

Pastilong and his wife, Mona, have two daughters Kim DeFelice and her husband, Anthony, and Amy Richter and her husband, Pat, and four grandsons, Michael and Nick DeFelice and Ryan and Shawn Richter.
