Since 2004, five former Mountaineers have had links to the WNBA. ◆◆ Guard Kate Bulger (2001-04) became the first WVU player drafted in the WNBA as she went as the final pick (No. 38) in the third round to the Minnesota Lynx in 2004. ◆◆ All-American point guard Yolanda Paige became the first player out of WVU to make a WNBA roster as she was drafted by the Indiana Fever in the second round of the 2005 WNBA Draft with the 16th overall pick. ◆◆ Center Yelena Leuchanka (2006) played three seasons in the WNBA with three different franchises as a free agent: the Charlotte Sting in 2006, the Washington Mystics in 2007 and the Atlanta Dream in 2010. ◆◆ Olayinka Sanni (2005-08), an All-American center drafted in the second round as the No. 18 overall pick of the 2008 WNBA draft by the Detroit Shock, won the WNBA Championship her rookie season. After two seasons with Detroit, she played the 2011 season with the Phoenix Mercury. She also plays overseas. ◆◆ Center Asya Bussie was selected in the second round by the Minnesota Lynx as the No. 15 overall pick in the 2014 WNBA Draft. Bussie became WVU’s highest WNBA Draft pick in program history. The Randallstown, Maryland, native was a two-time AllAmerican Honorable Mention selection by the Associated Press and the WBCA.

Coach Carey Says… “Our coaching staff is committed to helping develop our student-athletes both on and off the court as they advance their careers here at West Virginia University. Should the professional ranks come calling for any of our players, there is no doubt in my mind they’ll be prepared for the next level because of the foundation they have built as a Mountaineer.”

COACH CAREY’S EMPHASIS ON ACADEMICS Under Carey’s guidance 37 student-athletes have graduated and 187 Garrett Ford Academic Honor Roll Awards have been earned. Carey experienced his largest graduating class in 2011, which had six graduates. Part of the graduating class was two-wtime CoSIDA first team all-America selection Liz Repella, the second player in program history to receive such an honor. She also was named to the Lowe’s Senior CLASS Award All-America second team as a finalist for the award, leading WVU to a team grade point average of 3.14. Repella became Carey’s first CoSIDA Academic All-District II first team member in 2009 and she did so again in 2010. Repella was recognized by the BIG EAST in 2009 and 2011 as she earned the conference’s Scholar-Athlete Sport Excellence Award. In 2003, Jess Fisher earned CoSIDA Academic All-District II second team honors and Sparkle Davis joined her with the accolade a year later.

STUDENT Continuing-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. The program was created in 1989 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. In 1992, WVU joined the growing list of schools that are a part of an NCAA-sponsored consortium. Similar to the post-eligibility program in providing former student-athletes a chance to continue work toward their degrees, the closely screened consortium requires participants to be more involved in community-related activities. he consortium students are often much older athletes, who left the University to pursue professional sports or business careers, but now wish to return to complete their degrees.

Graduation Rates West Virginia University’s graduation rate for student-athletes has been impressive. The ratio of student-athletes graduating to the general student body has increased almost every year. The graduation rate for student-athletes is based upon the number of students who entered the University receiving athletic scholarship aid in a given academic year, and their progress over six years.

What Is Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC)?

The Purpose Of West Virginia University SAAC Is:

The Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) provides a forum for the “voice of the student-athlete” on WVU’s campus. SAAC membership provides feedback to administration about how to better WVU athletic programs. Two representatives from each varsity team at West Virginia University are either elected by their teammates or selected by the members of their coaching staff. Under the guidance of SAAC advisor Terri Howes, the SAAC meets regularly to discuss current issues and concerns of WVU’s studentathletes. SAAC leaders attend Big 12 Conference SAAC meetings to exchange ideas with other studentathletes from Big 12 schools regarding studentathlete’s collegiate experience.

1. To generate a student-athlete voice within WVU, the Big 12 and NCAA structure. 2. Solicit student-athlete response to proposed WVU, Big 12 and NCAA legislation. 3. Recommend potential WVU, Big 12 and NCAA legislation. 4. Review, react and comment to the governance structure on legislation, activities and subjects of interest. 5. Actively participate in the administrative process of athletics programs and the NCAA. 6. Promote a positive student-athlete image.

2014-15 Mountaineer WOMEN’S BASKETBALL

WITH A PENCHANT for setting new standards and taking Mountaineer women’s basketball to heights previously not thought of, Mike Carey enters his 14th season as head coach of the West Virginia University women’s basketball team. His achievements speak volumes: a school-record 30 wins; the highest national rankings in program history; eight 21-win seasons in 11 years—a school record; eight consecutive postseason appearances—a school record; 29 career victories over ranked opponents, including the highest-ranked team in school history and the highest ranked road team in school history; victories over two eventual national runner-ups; three conference championship game appearances; consecutive NCAA tournament appearances (2007, 2008 and 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014) and eight trips in 11 years (2004, 2007, 2008, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014). In 13 seasons at WVU, the three-time Conference Coach of the Year has posted a 274-146 (.652) record. He holds the highest winning percentage in program history and reached 200 wins the fastest, doing so in his 10th season. Under his direction, WVU is 141-40 (.779) against non-conference opponents including an impressive 78-6 mark at the WVU Coliseum. For his career, Carey boasts a 562-248 (.694) record in 25 years of coaching.

Five Consecutive NCAA Appearances In only his second season in the Big 12 Conference, Carey led the Mountaineers to a 2014 Big 12 Regular-Season Championship title, finishing with a 16-2 league record and sharing the top of the league standings with Baylor. Carey was named Big 12 Coach of the Year as the Mountaineers captured a conference regular-season title for the first time since winning the Atlantic 10 title in 1992. The Mountaineers made a run to the Big 12 Championship title game, while senior center Asya Bussie and sophomore guard Bria Holmes were each named to the Big 12 All-Tournament Team. In addition to the tournament, Bussie and Holmes were All-Big 12 First Team honorees, including a unanimous selection for Holmes. Bussie was also named Big 12 All-Defensive Team alongside classmate Jess Harlee and Taylor Palmer as the Big 12’s Sixth Man of the Year. The 2013-14 season had many firsts.

pearance with a No. 2 seed—the highest in program history, recorded its highest ranking to date in program history at No. 5 in the Associated Press poll and recorded wins over five top-25 teams, including four in the top 15, also a feat never done before. At the close of the season, Bussie was selected in the second round by the Minnesota Lynx as the No. 15 overall pick in the 2014 WNBA Draft. At the time, Bussie became WVU’s highest WNBA Draft pick in program history. The Randallstown, Md., native was a two-time All-American Honorable Mention selection by the Associated Press and the WBCA. The 2012-13 season marked the fourth consecutive NCAA appearance for Carey and the Mountaineers. Closing out its inaugural season in the Big 12 Conference with a 17-14 overall record and a 9-9 mark in league play, WVU landed a No. 6 seed in its first-ever Big 12 Conference Tournament. Four Mountaineers added all-conference honors to their names as Christal Caldwell earned first team, Ayana Dunning closed out her career with an honorable mention accolade, Jess Harlee was named to the Big 12 All-Defensive Team and Bria Holmes landed a spot on the Big 12 All-Freshman Team. Although it was its inaugural season in the Big 12 Conference, Carey continued to play a tough schedule, facing eight opponents, four twice, ranked in the top-50 RPI, defeating back-to-back top-25 Associated Press ranked teams en route to three total wins over ranked opponents, recorded seven road wins and trailed by 10 or more in three games, in which the Mountaineers rallied for a comeback win. The West Virginia women’s basketball program set a new attendance record as 13,447 fans came to the Coliseum for WVU’s March 2 game against No. 1 Baylor, an attendance figure that ranked in the top-10 nationally for a regular-season game. Off the court, six Mountaineers were honored by the conference on the Academic All-Big 12 team, the most players of any team to earn the honor. In the 2011-12 season, Carey coached a Mountaineer squad returning only one senior and one starter from the previous season to its third consecutive NCAA tournament and fourth in the last five seasons. Predicted to finish ninth in the Big East Preseason Coaches’ Poll, the Mountaineers exceeded expectations finishing in a tie for fourth place and earning a bye in the Big East Cham-

WVU defeated 17 opponents by a double-figure margin and out-rebounded 28 opponents, including 13 Big East teams in the regular season. For the first time in program history, WVU defeated three-straight top 25 teams, including the highest ranked opponent in program history as the Mountaineers took a 65-63 victory from No. 2 Notre Dame in front of a sold out crowd on national television. The win was WVU’s first ever in Notre Dame, Ind. Carey saw three players earn all-conference honors as junior Asya Bussie, the 15th player in WVU history to reach 1,000 points and 500 rebounds, was named first team All-BIG EAST, sophomore Christal Caldwell earned All-BIG EAST honorable mention and Linda Stepney was named to the All-BIG EAST freshman team.

A Decade of Success The Mountaineers experienced success from the start of the 2010-11 season as WVU earned its highest-ever preseason ranking in the Associated Press poll at No. 11 with seniors Liz Repella and Sarah Miles earning BIG EAST preseason honors. The season opened on a 19-0 win streak, the best start to a season in program history, and the Mountaineers moved up to the highest-ever ranking in program history at No. 6 in the polls, staying there for four-straight weeks. Within its undefeated start, WVU defeated No. 21 TCU, Virginia and No. 19 Iowa State on the way to becoming Paradise Jam Island Division Champions. Senior co-captains Repella and Madina Ali were named to the all-tournament team, while Repella also earned MVP honors. Driven by Carey’s motivation for defensive play, the Mountaineers’ scoring defense ranked No. 1 nationally for five-straight weeks and stayed within the top-10 nationwide for the entire season. WVU was led by five seniors, who amassed the most wins in two seasons in program history with a 53-15 mark. Carey recorded his 200th win as head coach at WVU on Feb. 19, 2011 as the Mountaineers tallied their highest point total of the season with a 90-79 win at Pitt. Under Carey’s guidance, WVU recorded six 20-win seasons in the last eight years, made its fifth NCAA appearance in eight seasons and its fourth NCAA Second Round appearance in the last five seasons.

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 after the Mountaineers notched a 21-11 season, the third-most wins in school history, and reached the NCAA tournament for the first time in 12 seasons. Under Carey’s guidance, West Virginia won six more conference games (10-6) than it did in all of the previous seasons. It was the second-best league turnaround from one season to the next in BIG EAST history. Among highly noted victories, Carey led WVU to wins over two ranked teams in No. 19/21 Virginia Tech during the regular season and 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. 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 second team; junior Paige was named to the third team and became the first Mountaineer named to the BIG EAST all-tournament team. Carey 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, 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 second 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 all-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 the 2003-04 campaign, Carey inked the 17th-best recruiting class by All-Star.

PRESEASONNotebook Bria Holmes Honors

Preseason WNIT

West Virginia junior Bria Holmes racked up many preseason accolades, including being named the Big 12 Preseason Player of the Year as voted on by the league’s head coaches. Additionally, Holmes was tabbed to the Preseason All-Big 12 team. The New Haven, Connecticut native was also honored as a First Team Preseason All-American by Lindy’s Magazine. Holmes was a unanimous All-Big 12 First Team selection last year in leading the Mountaineers to a share of their first Big 12 women’s basketball regular season title. She was also an Associated Press All-American honorable mention, as well as a Phillips 66 Big 12 Championship All-Tournament Team recipient.

West Virginia makes a second appearance in the Preseason WNIT since its debut in the prestigious preseason tournament in 2009. The Mountaineers advanced to the semifinal that year after wins over Towson and Marist. WVU fell to eventual champion and third-ranked Ohio State, 92-69, in Columbus. This year’s showcase features nine teams that made a postseason appearance in 2014. Other notable teams include Colorado, Mississippi State, Penn State, Seton Hall and WKU. The Mountaineers open up WNIT play against Eastern Kentucky. The Lady Colonels own a 2-1 record in the series, but WVU won handily over EKU, 60-49, in a matchup on Dec. 8, 2009. The winner of the first round matchup will face Seton Hall/Rider at a campus site to be determined. Arkansas State, Jackson State, Mercer and Mississippi State are the other four teams on West Virginia’s side of the bracket.

Plenty of New Faces Now there are five student-athletes that will don the Old Gold and Blue for the first time this upcoming season. Coach Mike Carey has brought a unique mix of veteran and rookie studentathletes that will contribute valuable roles to this year’s team. Carey welcomes two players from the junior college ranks: Kayla Montgomery (Gulf Coast State) and Jessica Morton (Gulf Coast State). Montgomery was selected to be a part of the 2013 NJCAA Women’s Basketball Coaches Association All-Star Tournament. She earned AllConference accolades twice at Gulf Coast State College and posted 8.9 points, 7.4 rebounds and 1.0 assists per game during her sophomore season. While also at Gulf Coast State, Morton started in all 28 games and scored a team-best 16.4 points per contest. She closed out her sophomore season as a two-time All-Panhandle First Team Conference selection and was named to the FCSAA/NJCAA Region VIII All-State team each season with Gulf Coast. All-Star Girl’s Report ranked Morton as the 12th-best junior college player national, while Dan Olson’s Collegiate Girls Basketball Report had her as the 10th-best juco player. Guards Dominique Simpson (Orlando, Fla.) and Tyara Warren (Plano, Texas) are true freshmen expected to play this season. Meanwhile, fans can get a good look at Teana Muldrow for the first time after she took a redshirt in 2013-14. Simpson was listed as the 18th-best guard nationally by ESPNU HoopGurlz. She led Jones High to the 2012 FHSAA Final Four for the first time in 2012. Warren was listed as the 24th-best player by ESPNU HoopGurlz. The Plano, Texas product was a McDonald’s All-America nominee and a three-time All-District First Team selection. She was sidelined in the second game of her senior season.

Big 12 Projections West Virginia was predicted to finish third in the Big 12 Conference Preseason Poll, as voted by the league’s head coaches. The defending 2013-14 Big 12 regular season co-champions return three starters from a team that finished 30-5 and won its first Big 12 title last season. Last week, guard Bria Holmes was tabbed the Big 12 Preseason Player of the Year and to the Preseason All-Big 12 team. Texas was selected as the preseason favorite with five first-place votes, while Baylor finished close behind with two first-place votes. West Virginia garnered two first-place nods in the preseason poll to place third. Oklahoma State picked up the final first-place vote and was chosen fourth with 63 points. Oklahoma rounded out the top five followed by Iowa State in sixth, TCU listed seventh, Kansas eighth, K-State ninth and Texas Tech in 10th. The 2013-14 campaign marked the fifthstraight year for the Big 12 to lead the nation in percentage of teams in the NCAA field. The Conference has led or tied for the nation’s top spot in seven of eight years dating back to 2007. The Big 12 also led the nation in average home attendance for the 15th-consecutive year.Model of Consistency West Virginia made a school-record fifth consecutive NCAA appearance last year. West Virginia reached as high as No. 5 in the Associated Press Poll and No. 7 in last year’s USA Today Coaches’ Poll. The Mountaineers enter the season having made 10 postseason appearances in the last 11 years. Coach Mike Carey’s squads have notched eight 21-win seasons in the last 11 years and eight NCAA appearances in the last 11 years.

RECORD BOOK

WEST VIRGINIA UNIVERSITY

Bria Holmes was tabbed the Big 12 Preseason Player of the Year as voted by the league’s coaches.

A Senior Trio Despite the youthfulness of the Mountaineers this season, West Virginia has three veteran seniors that are expected to contribute immensely. Guard Linda Stepney started 34-of-35 games last season and dished out a team-leading 107 assists. The Norfolk, Virginia product averaged 5.1 points and 3.3 rebounds in 23.9 minutes last season. Averee Fields, a forward from Murray, Kentucky, boasted 7.6 points and corralled 5.2 boards per game in 35 games last season. Fields notched 46 steals for the year, which was second only to Bria Holmes. Crystal Leary proved to be a strong asset of the bench last season, pulling in 3.7 boards per game and scoring 2.9 points a contest. Leary, also a native of Norfolk, had a strong 66.1 percent field goal percentage, knocking down 33-of-54 shots attempted.

Carey Nearing All-Time Wins Mark Coach Mike Carey is inching closer to the school’s all-time wins record, which is held by WVU legendary coach Kittie Blakemore (1973-92). Carey is just 26 victories away from claiming his 300th victory at WVU. He is 27 wins shy of tying Blakemore for the school record in career triumphs.

Nichols Returns Associate Head Coach Chester Nichols returned to West Virginia after coaching stints at UCF, Kansas and most recently with Michigan. Nichols was a part of 42 wins in two seasons as assistant coach at Michigan. U-M completed the 2013-14 season with a 20-14 mark, making it to the third round of the WNIT. It was just the sixth 20-win season in the history of the program. Nichols helped Michigan to one of its most successful seasons in program history during his first season in 2012-13, as the Wolverines tied program records for wins (22) and consecutive wins (10), and made just their third second-round appearance in the NCAA Tournament. Nichols worked with the post players, helping seniors Rachel Sheffer and Nya Jordan earn All-Big Ten honorable mention. During his first stint at WVU, Nichols was part of the Mountaineers’ three NCAA tournament appearances. He also helped guide West Virginia to the championship game of the WNIT in 2005 and to the Big East Championship game in 2006. At WVU, Nichols helped sign five top-20 classes, which included eight All-Big East performers, a Big East Most Improved honor and a Big East Defensive Player of the Year.

2013-14:

A SEASON TO REMEMBER Winning a Big 12 Title In only its second season in the Big 12 Conference, the West Virginia women’s basketball team won a share of the Big 12 Regular-Season Championship title, finishing with a 16-2 league record. Coach Mike Carey was named the Big 12 Coach of the Year as the Mountaineers captured a conference regular-season title for the first time since winning the Atlantic 10 title in 1992.

All-Conference Honors Senior Asya Bussie earned All-Big 12 First Team and Big 12 All-Defensive Team honors, while sophomore Bria Holmes was an unanimous selection to the All-Big 12 First Team. Senior Jess Harlee joined Bussie on the Big 12 All-Defensive Team and added Big 12 Scholar-Athlete of the Year honors to her resume. Senior Taylor Palmer earned the league’s Sixth Man of the Year award.

A Run at the Big 12 Championship WVU earned a bye at the Big 12 Championships, entering as the No. 2 seed. The Mountaineers knocked off TCU, 67-59, for the third time in the season to advance to the semis, where they went on to defeat Texas 67-60. WVU split the season series, 1-1, with its fellow co-champions in Baylor, before ultimately falling 74-71 to the top-seeded Bears. The conference championship game appearance was WVU’s fourth overall in program history and third under the direction of coach Carey. Bussie and Holmes were each named to the Big 12 All-Tournament Team following WVU’s run.

A Campaign of Firsts WVU recorded its most wins in program history with a 30-5 overall record, made its fifth consecutive NCAA appearance with a No. 2 seed—the highest in program history, recorded its highest ranking to date in program history at No. 5 in the Associated Press poll and recorded wins over five top-25 teams, including four in the top 15.

A Closer Look at the Numbers WVU held 22 opponents to 60 points or less, including 11-of-18 regular-season Big 12 games. The Mountaineers limited 3-of-4 final regularseason opponents to 45 points or less, holding

96

Texas Tech to only 37 points, which is the lowest Big 12 total for an opponent in WVU program history. WVU restricted opponents to 59 points per game, the second lowest average in the Big 12, while averaging 73.7 points per game, its highest scoring average in 17 seasons. The previous high was in 1997 when the Mountaineers averaged 74.5 points per game as a team.

Offensive Breakthrough Coach Carey’s teams have been known for their defensive play. The 2013-14 squad recorded impressive defensive numbers, but also stepped up on the offensive end of the court. A team led by five seniors, the Mountaineers broke a program scoring record set in 1981 with 2,581 total points. The seniors combined for 56 percent of WVU’s scoring,

with three seniors making up WVU’s top-five season scorers. Although she was only a sophomore, Holmes made up 20 percent of the Mountaineers’ scoring single-handedly as the season’s leading scorer. Holmes became only the 14th player in WVU history to have 500 points in a season with 516 total, and only the sixth sophomore to achieve the feat. She led WVU with 25 games in double figures and 14 games as WVU’s scoring leader, including a team-leading nine 20-point outings.

Most Points in More Than a Decade The Mountaineers recorded 109 points in their win over Delaware State on Dec. 18, 2013. It matched WVU’s fourth-highest point total in a single game in program history and it was the most points WVU had recorded in a game since having 114 against Robert Morris on Dec. 7, 2002. Five Mountaineers recorded scoring numbers in double figures, led by Bussie and Holmes with 22 points each.

Shooting from Downtown As a team, the Mountaineers recorded 207 made threes, the second most in program history. WVU closed the 2013-14 season setting a record for the most 3-point field goal attempts in program history with 639 attempts in the season. The previous record was 637 set in 2008. A major contributor to WVU’s 3-point shooting was sophomore guard Bria Holmes. Her teamleading 70 threes made ranked fourth in WVU’s sophomore season record books, while her 204 3-point field goals attempts ranked second. Behind Holmes, senior Taylor Palmer recorded the second-most threes for WVU with 56, having had a three in 29 games. She wrapped up her time at WVU tied for the fifth-most 3-pointers made in a career with 215.

2014-15 Mountaineer WOMEN’S BASKETBALL the most fouls in a single season. The previous record was 654 personal fouls, while opponents in the 2014 season committed 744 fouls. Part of the rule changes were apparent as the Mountaineers made and attempted the most free throws in program history, going 630-for-903 from the line. The previous made free throws recorded were 541 in 1997, while the previous attempted free throws were 639. In 2014, WVU set a record for most fouls in program history in a single season with 675, surpassing the record set the year before, which was 637. WVU made 37 free throws en route to an 88-80 win over Duquesne on Dec. 21, 2013. It matched the program record, which was set Dec. 29, 1990 against Northern Illinois, for free throws made as a team.

Bussie Becomes Highest Draft Pick

Although the Mountaineers were able to capture their most wins in program history and a share of the Big 12 Conference Regular-Season title, the road to these achievements was not an easy one. WVU was 21-5 against opponents in the RPI Top 150 and 16-5 against opponents in the RPI Top 100 in the final RPI standings. WVU’s five losses came to Ohio State (RPI 52), Baylor, twice, (RPI 7), Texas (RPI 24) and LSU (RPI 15). However, with 30 wins, WVU went on a 13-game win streak with 61 calendar days between losses, and had a separate 12-game win streak during Big 12 play. The Mountaineers closed out the season ranked No. 12 in the final RPI standings and No. 7 in the final Associated Press Poll—its highest finish in program history.

The History of WVU

WOMEN’S BASKETBALL

The First Women’s Basketball Team at West Virginia University

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 regularseason 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 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.

1974-82: Working Up to the First 20-Win Season 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, W.Va., 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 Hagerstown, 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 2,115 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 WVU basketball practice facility. 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 hired Bill Fiske as an assistant coach to help with the growing burdens of recruiting and strategy. Fiske

2013-14 REVIEW

RECORD BOOK

WEST VIRGINIA UNIVERSITY

Kittie BLAKEMORE HEAD COACH 1973-92

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. 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. 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. 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.

1983: Joining the NCAA & Gaining National Attention 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 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,

Georgeann Wells blocked 17 shots against Marshall on Dec. 3, 1983. 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 assistant Scott Harrelson and Blakemore finished the season with a 12-17 record, impressive considering the circumstances.

1989: WVU’s First Atlantic 10 Title & NCAA Tournament Berth 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.

1990-92: WVU’s First NCAA Sweet 16 Appearance & Coach Blakemore’s Retirement 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

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.

1993-2000: Coaching Changes 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 1984-87 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,

In only his third season as head coach, Mike Carey was named Big East Coach of the Year after guiding WVU to a 21-11 overall record. the Coliseum and suffered through injuries in 2000-01. 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.

2001-13: The Carey Years 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 secondconsecutive 20-win season with a 21-13 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. Paige and Bulger were named honorable mention All-Americans by the AP and WBCA/ Kodak, respectively. Despite his first losing record at WVU (15-16), 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 all-BIG 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

WEST VIRGINIA UNIVERSITY 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. 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 secondmost 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 61-60 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. In 2008-09, 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. Without any seniors, the 2009-10 team exceeded all expectations as the squad was predicted to finish ninth in the preseason BIG EAST Coaches’ Poll, but the Mountaineers won a school record 29 games, a program-best 13 BIG

Ali was named to the All-BIG EAST second team, while Repella earned first team honors for the second consecutive season. Repella was named a Capital One Academic All-America first team member in back-to-back seasons and was named to the Lowe’s Senior CLASS Award AllAmerica second team as a finalist for the award. With 50 percent of its games on television and nine games nationally-televised, including ESPN2’s Big Monday, WVU experienced some of its greatest crowds in program history. Six crowds ranked in the top 20 all-time largest crowds at the WVU Coliseum, helping the Mountaineers to a school record for total (49,648) and average (3,103) home attendance; ranking 35th of all NCAA Division I programs and recording the fifth-largest per game increase nationally from the previous season. In 2011-12, Carey coached a Mountaineer squad returning only one senior and one starter from the previous season to its third consecutive NCAA tournament and fourth in the last five seasons. Predicted to finish ninth in the BIG EAST Preseason Coaches’ Poll, the Mountaineers exceeded expectations finishing in a tie for fourth place and earning a bye in the BIG EAST Championship. WVU’s scoring defense ranked in the top 10 nationally all season, closing out the year at No. 6, and held 23 opponents to under 60 points. WVU defeated 17 opponents by a doublefigure margin and out-rebounded 28 opponents, including 13 BIG EAST teams in the regular season. For the first time in program history, WVU defeated three-straight top 25 teams, including the highest ranked opponent in program history as the Mountaineers took a 65-63 victory from No. 2 Notre Dame in front of a sold out crowd on national television. The win was WVU’s first ever in Notre Dame, Ind. Carey saw three players earn all-conference honors as junior Asya Bussie, the 15th player in WVU history to reach 1,000 points

Liz Repella earned first team all-conference honors in back-to-back seasons under coach Carey. and 500 rebounds, was named first team All-BIG EAST, sophomore Christal Caldwell earned AllBIG EAST honorable mention and Linda Stepney was named to the All-BIG EAST freshman team. In the last nine years, under Carey’s direction, WVU has advanced to the NCAA tournament second round (2006-07, 2007-08, 2009-10, 201011, 2011-12), the NCAA tournament (2003-04), the WNIT championship game (2004-05), the BIG EAST tournament finals (2005-06, 2009-10) and the second round of the WNIT (2008-09). The team has also posted seven 21-win seasons during that time. Certainly, success and respect have found their way to the Mountaineer women’s basketball program.

2014: A Season to Remember The 2013-14 season was a season with many firsts. WVU recorded its most wins in program history with a 30-5 overall record, made its fifth consecutive NCAA appearance with a No. 2 seed—the highest in program history, recorded its highest ranking to date in program history at No. 5 in the Associated Press poll and recorded wins over five top-25 teams, including four in the top 15.

At the Big 12 Tournament 2012-13 DESPITE A 19-POINT halftime lead, the West Virginia women’s basketball team came out of the break cold, as Oklahoma took a 65-64 victory, handing WVU an early exit at the Philips 66 Big 12 Championship held in the American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas. The Mountaineers led by as many as 22 points, but a 40-point second-half performance by the Sooners propelled Oklahoma to the last second victory. Junior guard Christal Caldwell was one of two Mountaineers in double figures, finishing the game with a double-double of 22 points and 11 rebounds – her first of the season. Caldwell hit all five of her 3-pointers in the first half. Junior guard Taylor Palmer was the other WVU player in double figure with 11 points, while sophomore forward Crystal Leary came off the bench to chip in eight points and six boards.

2013-14 REVIEW

WEST VIRGINIA UNIVERSITY

2013-14 IN ONLY ITS SECOND SEASON in the Big 12 Conference, WVU finished atop the league standings for a share of the regular-season title with Baylor. Due to tiebreaker rules, the Lady Bears earned the No. 1 seed in the Phillips 66 Big 12 Championship held in Oklahoma City, while the Mountaineers entered as the No. 2 seed. WVU knocked off TCU, 67-59, in the quarterfinal round, defeated Texas, 67-60, in the semis, but fell, 74-71, to Baylor in the championship final. A back-and-forth ending saw eight lead changes in the final six minutes, but an Odyssey Sims’ jumper with 53 seconds left gave Baylor the final lead. The Mountaineers (29-4) held a one-point lead with 54 seconds remaining, 69-68, but Baylor used a jumper and a pair of free throws to pull out to a three-point lead, 72-69, with 19 seconds left. With time winding down, Linda Stepney drove to the basket for two points with five seconds left. On the following possession a foul was called with four seconds left to send BU’s Niya Johnson to the free throw line, of which she converted both attempts. About 30 feet from the hoop, Stepney made one final attempt to heave the ball in, but it fell off the mark at the buzzer. The conference championship game appearance was the fourth overall in program history and the Mountaineers went in ranked higher than the Lady Bears, as WVU was ranked No. 5 and Baylor was No. 7 in the Associated Press poll. Senior center Asya Bussie and sophomore guard Bria Holmes were each named to the Big 12 All-Tournament Team following the three-game event.

4 Rosemary KOSIOREK Lettered: 19 89-90C-91C-92C 5-5, Guard | Baltimore, Md.

A DIMINUTIVE POINT GUARD from Baltimore, Md., Rosemary Kosiorek was West Virginia’s most decorated women’s basketball player ever, leading the Mountaineers to a 26-4 record and a No. 11 national ranking in 1992. A four-year contributor, the Mountaineers were upset winners of the Atlantic 10 tournament Kosiorek’s freshman year, advancing to the NCAA tournament for the first time. As a junior, she became the first player to lead the Atlantic 10 in both scoring (20.2) and assists (6.2), earning honorable mention All-America honors. There was nothing she couldn’t do. She could shoot, she could pass, she could dribble past anyone and she could score. She held the record for most points scored in a single game (37 vs. Marshall) from 1992-98 and set the record for assists in a game (15 vs. Duquesne, 1992). As a senior, she was unstoppable, leading WVU to a 22-game winning streak, the A-10 regular-season title and a 25-3 regular-season record, as she averaged 24.3 points and a school record 6.8 assists per game. Her 1,136 points scored that season were almost half of WVU’s total output; for her career, she had 2,061 points and 725 assists. In addition, Kosiorek racked up 43 20-point games during her career. At the end of that 1992 season, the Mountaineers received a No. 4 seed in the NCAA tournament, hosting Clemson in what would be a 71-70 win before 8,000 fans at the Coliseum. WVU advanced to the Sweet 16 before losing at powerhouse Virginia. A Kodak All-American and a finalist for the Margaret Wade Trophy (given to the college player of the year), Kosiorek received the Frances Pomeroy Naismith Award from the Basketball Hall of Fame as the nation’s best player under 5-5. A three-time All-Atlantic 10 pick, she was the 1992 Atlantic 10 player of the year and WVU’s MVP and team captain. A first team Academic All-American, Kosiorek graduated with honors in accounting from WVU in 1992. Kosiorek was invited to try out for the U.S. Olympic Team and the WNBA. She was named to the West Virginia University Sports Hall of Fame in 2003.

21 Cathy PARSON #

Lettered: 19 80-81-82-83C 5-7, Guard | Hagerstown, Md. A BRILLIANT GUARD from Hagerstown, Md., Cathy Parson is WVU women’s basketball career scoring leader. Tallying 2,115 points during her four year career (1980-83), Parson appeared in a then-school record 121 career games and averaged 17.5 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. She is also the women’s all-time leader in career field goals made (899) and attempted (2,072). Of her 121 games played, Parson registered double figures 108 times. 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 all-BIG EAST selection, an honorable mention AIAW All-America in 1982 and a third team AIAW All-America selection 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 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 AllAmerican 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 and served eight seasons as head coach for Howard from 2000-08.

11 Georgeann WELLS #

Lettered: 19 83-84-85-86C 6-7, Center | Columbus, Ohio 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 talked-about 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.

E.GORDONGee President

Dr. E. Gordon Gee is one of America’s most prominent higher education leaders, having helmed universities for more than three decades. In 2009, Time magazine named him one of the top 10 university presidents in the United States. In 2014, Gee returned to West Virginia University, where his career as a university president began. His leadership goals include putting students first, advancing the university’s research agenda, partnering with West Virginia communities and making sure that 1.8 million West Virginians know in their hearts and minds that West Virginia University is their university. Born in Vernal, Utah, Gee graduated from the University of Utah with an honors degree in history and earned his J.D. and Ed.D degrees from Columbia University. He clerked under Chief Justice David T. Lewis of the U.S. 10th Circuit Court of Appeals before being named a judicial fellow and staff assistant to the U.S. Supreme Court. In this role, he worked for Chief Justice Warren Burger on administrative and legal problems of the Court and federal judiciary. Gee returned to Utah as an associate professor and associate dean in the J. Reuben Clark Law School at Brigham Young University, and was granted full professorship in 1978. One year later, he became dean of the West Virginia University College of Law, and, in 1981, was named West Virginia University president. He served in that role until 1985. He went on to lead the University of Colorado (1985-1990), Brown University (1998-2000), and Vanderbilt University (2001-2007). He served as president of The Ohio State University from 1990 to 1997 and again from 2007 to 2013. Gee has been a member of several educationgovernance organizations and committees,

OLIVERLuck Director of Athletics

As Director of Athletics at West Virginia University, Oliver Luck has worked endlessly and traveled the world to enhance the Mountaineers’ role as a major player in collegiate athletics. In four years on the job, Luck’s accomplishments have been nothing short of spectacular. In the past year alone, he successfully guided the start of construction on a new $21 million baseball park, which will open in 2015 and provide the Mountaineers with one of the best facilities in the Big 12. Add in his tireless efforts to secure a $75 million bond, start a $25 million fundraising effort and proceed with a $6 million new football team room and Luck’s efforts will show $106 million in facility improvements in the coming years to bring WVU’s aging facilities into the modern times. His work on the national level is equally impressive and equally valuable to West Virginia University. He was named in 2013 to a three-year term on the inaugural College Football Playoff committee, which will change the face of the college football national championship. He serves on the NFL Player Safety Advisory Committee, chairs the Big 12 Budget and Finance Committee, serves on the board of American Campus Community, Inc., and in May, 2014, was one of the featured speakers at the White House at the Healthy Kids and Safe Sports Concussion Summit through his work with the organization Practice Like Pros. Among athletic directors, Luck is also one of the most popular speakers on the national circuit. Countless seminars and conventions feature him on panels and discussion groups to tap into his knowledge of the corporate and collegiate world. Before 2014, his previous three years at WVU were equally impressive and busy. He has hired new coaches to bolster WVU’s level of success. He guided the completion of major capital projects such as the $25 million WVU basketball practice facility for men’s and women’s basketball and the women’s soccer training complex. He led WVU into the Big 12 Conference, presided over the best fundraising year in school history (2012), implemented several safety and crowd enhancements at Mountaineer sporting events, increased overall department revenue, continued a master plan for facility upgrades and watched his football program gain its third BCS bowl victory. In 2013, Luck oversaw the reseating of the WVU Coliseum to further increase WVU’s fundraising efforts. He added an 18th varsity sport - men’s golf, which will tee it up in 2015 for the first time since 1982. He outsourced WVU’s media rights to secure a 12-year

guaranteed annual revenue source of at least $6 million per year from IMG. However, through all his accomplishments in four years in Morgantown, it all has occurred while he has fostered an atmosphere for achievement and triumph in the classroom and on the field. Luck, was appointed the University’s 11th Director of Athletics on June 9, 2010 and he was no stranger to success. In fact, Luck’s athletic and professional career has been the epitome of success, first as a record-setting quarterback for the Mountaineers from 1978-81, then as a professional quarterback for the National Football League’s Houston Oilers, and later as a professional sports executive. After retiring from football, Luck became vice president of business development for the NFL and later was appointed general manager of the Frankfurt Galaxy of the newly created World League of American Football. He spent the ’95 season as general manager of the Rhein Fire before being named President and CEO of NFL Europe in 1996. Luck totaled more than 10 years with the NFL, before becoming chief executive officer of the Harris County-Houston Sports Authority in 2001. In that role, Luck oversaw the development and management of a $1 billion professional sports and entertainment complex for the city of Houston that included Minute Maid Park, home of the Houston Astros, Reliant Stadium, home of the Houston Texans, the Toyota Center, home of the Houston Rockets.

In 2005, Luck was appointed as the first president of Major League Soccer’s Houston Dynamos, helping that organization to a pair of MLS Cup titles in his first two years at the helm. Luck secured the funding for an $80 million soccer complex to house the Dynamos when the call came to return to his alma mater. BBVA Compass Stadium was built and opened in 2012 adding to Luck’s legacy with the professional soccer team, and the overall Houston sports facility complexes. He returned to Houston in May, 2012 for the opening ceremony of the soccer stadium that he fought so hard for. Prior to his current position at WVU, Luck was appointed to a four-year term on the West Virginia University Board of Governors, a spot he relinquished to become director of athletics. The Rhodes Scholar finalist graduated Phi Beta Kappa from WVU in 1982. He also earned a law degree from Texas, graduating cum laude in 1987. In 1997, Luck was inducted into the West Virginia University Sports Hall of Fame, and in 2000, he was inducted into the CoSIDA Academic All-America Hall of Fame. He is married to the former Kathy Wilson. They have two sons and two daughters: Andrew, a former All-American quarterback and two-time Heisman Trophy finalist at Stanford and No. 1 overall pick of the 2012 NFL draft by the Indianapolis Colts; Mary Ellen, a standout volleyball player and graduate of Stanford; Emily, a current student at Stanford and Addison, who attends Morgantown High.
