Choosing to become a Mountaineer is special. Mountaineers have the opportunity to represent themselves, their teammates and their University to news media, alumni, friends, family and the general public.

A WINNING

TRADITION The Mountaineers own a national presence, having competed at four national championships and 35 regional championships. Five gymnasts have won 13 All-America honors, while 18 have individually qualified for the NCAA National Championships, including Hope Sloanhoffer in 2014.

TEAMS

CHAMPIONSHIP

Choosing to become a Mountaineer means working your hardest and pushing your body and mind to new heights, maximizing your potential on and off the mat. Five gymnasts have gone above and beyond to earn All-America status at West Virginia.

THE NEXT

STEP Fourthyear coach Jason Butts helped the Mountaineers exit the EAGL in style, winning the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s seventh championship in 2012, and ushered in a new period for WVU gymnastics in 2013, as the Mountaineers joined perennial powerhouse Oklahoma and Iowa State in the Big 12 Conference.

Cary Gym underwent a makeover in the summer of 2014, as new graphics and banners were added to give the Mountaineersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; practice facility a fresh, welcoming look. The $1.5 million, 12,000-square foot training center was designed exclusively for Mountaineer gymnastics and also features the latest in comfort, technology and safety. On competition Day, the Mountaineers move over to the WVU Coliseum, one of the most exciting and difficult venues to compete in NCAA Gymnastics.

CARY GYM AND THE

WVU COLISEUM

MEET DAY IN

MORGANTOWN

The atmosphere that surrounds the WVU Coliseum on meet day is contagious, as the gymnasts give their all for a win, interacting with the Mountaineer faithful and feeding off the crowdâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s energy.

The Mountaineers (6-11, 0-4 Big 12) enjoyed their best score at the Big 12 Gymnastics Championship, tallying 196.375 and finishing in third place. The championship was held in Morgantown, the first Big 12-sponsored event hosted by WVU.

2014 SEASON

REVIEW

Senior Hope Sloanhoffer qualified for the NCAA National Championships in the all-around, becoming WVUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 18th individual qualifier and first since 2009. She also finished first on balance beam at the NCAA Athens Regional, becoming the seventh Mountaineer to earn a regional event title and the first since 2001.

The WVU gymnastics team takes great pride in its appearance on competition day. Whether sporting pink leotards during February for breast cancer awareness, black leotards at the WVU Coliseum in support of West Virginiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rich coal history, or the traditional Old Gold and Blue, the Mountaineers look to put a fresh, cool spin on their competition look every year.

THE MOUNTAINEER

LOOK

In its 19th year of competition, the Big 12 is a strong conference that, like WVU, values quality academic and athletic programs and has a great tradition of success. Oklahoma won the Big 12â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first gymnastics National Championships in 2014, sharing the title with defending champion Florida. Since 2002, the Big 12 has been represented by at least one team at every NCAA Gymnastics Championship, and has sent at least one team to the NCAA Super Six Championship in nine of the last 12 years.

CONFERENCE

The WVU athletic training staff works in conjunction with the team physicians and the athletic administration to assure the student-athletes receive quality care throughout their careers at WVU.

ATHLETIC

TRAINING

The Mountaineer gymnastics training programs are designed to prepare each gymnast for optimum performance in competition and to have the ability to withstand the rigorous training demands throughout the season. The goal is to keep the gymnasts in the gym practicing injury-free and sharpening their skills and routines each day.

STRENGTH AND

CONDITIONING

COMMUNITY

SERVICE

The Mountaineers give back to Morgantown and its surrounding communities every chance they get. The WVU gymnastics team is dedicated to raising funds for cancer projects, such as the Betty Puskar Breast Care Center and the American Cancer society.

• The WVU gymnastics team officially signed Hundred, West Virginia, native Krista Mae Peraldo on Nov. 19, 2013. • Ten-year old Krista Mae and the Mountaineers were joined together through Team IMPACT, a Boston-based non-profit organization that has set out to improve the quality of life for children facing life-threatening illnesses by partnering them with college athletic teams. • Diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia on March 21, 2013, Krista Mae continues to receive treatment at the WVU Children’s Hospital. She and her family are constant visitors at Cary Gym. She will join the Mountaineers at their home meets this season. • Team IMPACT’s goal is for children to become official team members for the duration of their treatment and beyond. The organization’s current footprint extends from the Northeast into the MidAtlantic and the Midwest regions.

FAMILY

MOUNTAINEER

“The WVU gymnastics team has been a successful program for over 40 years, and we look forward to building on that success.” Coach Jason Butts

"The Mountaineer Family is a proud program with a lot of tradition. West Virginia is a very proud state, and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re representing the people of West Virginia that are Mountaineers; that is our history.

"The time you spend with your Mountaineer Family can have a positive effect on your life after you have donned the Old Gold and Blue." Coach Jason Butts

COACHING STAFF

HEAD COACH

JasonButts Fourth Season

Following a five-year tenure that saw him rise from assistant coach to associate head coach, Jason Butts became West Virginia University’s third gymnastics head coach in April 2011. Three years into his tenure, Butts returned the program to the national stage, as Hope Sloanhoffer qualified for the NCAA National Championships in the all-around, the first gymnast since 2009 to advance to the national championships and the 18th in program history. The 2014 NCAA Athens Regional Championships beam co-champion, Sloanhoffer also captured the Big 12 Conference allaround crown, WVU gymnastics’ first Big 12 title. As a team, the Mountaineers finished with a 6-11 (0-4 Big 12) overall mark and a third-place showing at the Big 12 Gymnastics Championship, the first conference championship hosted in Morgantown since WVU joined the Big 12 in 2012. The squad scored a program- and season-best 196.375 at the championship. Sloanhoffer finished with two All-Big 12 Championship Team honors (all-around, floor), and Dayah Haley (all-around) and Beth Deal (balance beam) each earned one, quadrupling the program’s honors from 2013. Sloanhoffer, Deal (balance beam), Alexa Goldberg (uneven bars) and Nicolette Swoboda (all-around) all individually qualified for the Athens Regional.

The Mountaineers also showed improvement in the classroom in 2014, as seven gymnasts were named Scholastic All-Americans, an increase from five in 2013. Additionally, seven garnered Academic All-Big 12 Gymnastics Team recognition, also an increase from five in 2013. With three seasons under his belt, Butts owns a 40-25 (.615) career coaching record. In just his second season at the helm, Butts ushered in a new era for WVU gymnastics in 2013, as the Mountaineers joined perennial powerhouse Oklahoma and Iowa State in the Big 12 Conference. The team made a name for itself in its new home, as the squad scored 196.0 or better in every home meet, a feat never before achieved in program history, and finished the year at 13-9 (1-3 Big 12). WVU spent six weeks in the GymInfo Poll, peaking at No. 16, and finished third in its first Big 12 Gymnastics Championship. The team also qualified for its 35th NCAA Regional Championships and placed fifth in front of a WVU Coliseum crowd. Included in 2013’s five 196.0+ performances was a season-best 196.55 mark in a loss to then-No. 3 Michigan (196.925) and wins over New Hampshire (194.875) and Towson (193.15) at the Coliseum on Feb. 24. The Mountaineers’ score was the 10th-best mark in program history. WVU earned its first Big 12 Conference victory with a 196.15-194.825 win over ISU at the Coliseum on Feb. 10 in front of 2,522 fans, the sixth-largest crowd to attend a home WVU gymnastics meet. In total, WVU competed in front of three home crowds of 1,800 or better, including the team’s Big 12 opener against Oklahoma on Feb. 1, which drew a crowd of 1,881, the 11th-best mark in program history. Jaida Lawrence earned the program’s first All-Big 12 honor, as she was named to the vault team, while Kaylyn Millick earned a spot on the All-Big 12 Championship Team for her second place all-around finish. Additionally, three gymnasts earned a combined six Big 12 weekly awards, five student-athletes were named to the 2013 Academic All-Big 12 Gymnastics Team and each of the team’s freshmen was named to the Academic All-Big 12 Rookie Team. At season’s end, the Mountaineers were nationally ranked No. 21 on vault, No. 21 on beam and No. 26 on floor; WVU was ranked in the top 25 on vault each week of 2013. Millick ranked No. 27 in the all-around, Sloanhoffer followed at No. 42, Lawrence ranked No. 43 on vault and Alaska Richardson ranked No. 48 on floor. Additionally, the squad ranked No. 2 overall in the Big 12 and in every event but bars. Butts wasted little time in his first season, leading the Mountaineers to a 21-5 record in 2012, their first 20-win season since 2008, and a fifth-place showing at the 2012 NCAA Auburn Regional Championships. WVU scored 195.9,

its best-ever regional score, and finished the year ranked No. 21 nationally, the Mountaineers’ first season-ending ranking since 2009. WVU concluded the year with a 5-4 mark against ranked teams and earned wins against No. 8 Arkansas, No. 13 Auburn and No. 13 Missouri. Making good on a promise he gave the team when he was hired, Butts also led the Mountaineers to their league-best seventh East Atlantic Gymnastics League (EAGL) title on March 24, 2012. Sloanhoffer, the EAGL Gymnast of the Year, captured the vault, bars and all-around titles, while Deal secured the balance beam victory. WVU tallied a season-best 196.475 score in its win and set three season-best scores on vault (49.25), bars (49.175) and floor (49.2). Prior to the championship, seven Mountaineers earned 15 All-EAGL honors, including four first-team awards for Sloanhoffer. She ranked No. 1 in the league in the all-around every week of the season. Following its seven wins at the EAGL Championship, WVU qualified for its 34th regional championship appearance as the No. 5 seed in the Auburn regional. Entering regional competition, WVU ranked nationally on vault and floor and owned the league’s top rankings on each event. Additionally, the squad ranked No. 2 on bars and beam. Nationally ranked for all but four weeks, the Mountaineers opened the 2012 season at No. 21. The squad was ranked in the nation’s top 25 on vault and floor all season and spent the first three weeks of the year nationally ranked in the top 10 on floor. The Mountaineers ended the season ranked No. 20 on vault and No. 21 on floor. A two-time (2009-10) Southeast Region Assistant Coach of the Year, Butts spent five seasons coaching the Mountaineers’ vault, floor and bars lineups under coach Linda Burdette-Good, who announced her retirement after 37 years of leading the Mountaineers. He helped those three lineups become dominant in the EAGL, and eight Mountaineers earned 19 first team all-league honors in the three events under his tutelage. As the primary bars coach, Butts produced three EAGL individual bars champions, including 2011 outright winner Amy Bieski. He also guided Mehgan Morris to back-to-back wins in 2008 and 2009. Additionally, he helped mentor Janáe Cox (2007) and Morris (2009) to individual all-around NCAA Championships qualifications and coached Cox to 2007 first team All-America honors on floor. In his five seasons as an assistant, the Mountaineers produced a 98-44 record, competed at five straight NCAA Regional Championships and claimed the 2008 EAGL Championship. Additionally, Butts coached nine EAGL individual champions, two EAGL Gymnasts of the Year and 57 All-EAGL honorees. Though the bars lineup shuffled throughout the 2011 season, Butts’ unit produced an overall season average of 48.406. Emily Kerwin ended the year ranked No. 6 in the EAGL, No. 13 in the Southeast region, with a

9.81 RQS, while league champion Bieski ranked No. 8 in the conference, No. 15 regionally, with a 9.795 RQS. Additionally, the Mountaineers placed the most representatives on the All-EAGL bars first team, as Kerwin, Bieski and Nicole Roach all secured the honor. In total, four gymnasts swung to multiple scores of 9.8 or better throughout the season, and Bieski and Roach set the team standard with career-best 9.875 marks. In addition to leading the bars team, Butts helped guide the vault and floor lineups to the No. 1 (49.08 RQS) and No. 2 (49.035) league rankings, respectively. The units also were nationally ranked No. 17 and No. 21, respectively. Under his supervision, Sloanhoffer, a nine-time EAGL weekly award winner, was ranked No. 1 in the league, No. 6 in the region and No. 37 in the nation on vault (9.865 RQS) and earned three 9.9-plus vault scores on the season. Butts was faced with the challenge of filling holes in the bars lineup in 2010, as key contributors were hit with injuries. Under his guidance, the Mountaineers rose to the challenge and finished the season ranked second in the EAGL and fourth in the Southeast region. Additionally, he guided Bieski and Roach to the No. 8 league ranking with matching 9.79 RQS. Butts also helped Chelsi Tabor attain the second-best EAGL vault RQS of 9.855. The mark ranked 10th in the region and 47th nationally. The Mountaineers finished ranked first on floor and second on bars and vault in the EAGL in 2009; they were nationally ranked 17th and 21st on vault and bars, respectively. Butts helped guide Morris to a fifth place all-around finish at the 2009 NCAA Southeast Regional Championship and a qualification for the NCAA Championship. Additionally, she not only repeated as the EAGL bars and floor champion, but she also won the all-around league title and was named the EAGL Outstanding Senior Gymnast. Three additional Mountaineers won EAGL titles in 2009 – Tabor (vault), Tina Maloney (vault) and Shelly Purkat (beam). In 2008, Morris scored a 9.85 on bars at the EAGL Championship to win the individual title, and the Mountaineers picked up their first league team title since 2004. Morris, along with Erica Watson, was named to the All-EAGL First Team on bars, while Bieski was a second-team selection in her rookie season. Butts saw his bars lineup vastly improve through his first season at WVU. After early season struggles, the group came together down the stretch to have the EAGL’s top bars RQS and a score that ranked 23rd in the country by season’s end. WVU placed second at the EAGL Championship on the uneven bars after posting a 48.85. Butts guided Cox and Morris to All-EAGL First Team selections in 2007. Morris posted four 9.9s that season under Butts and averaged an impressive 9.85 in 13 meets to rank atop the league’s individual rankings. Morris would go on to place seventh in the NCAA Southeast Regional Championships. The Athens, Georgia, native brought 12 years of club coaching experience to WVU, most recently from Classic City Gymnastics, where he trained men and women from 2001-06. He guided the women and men to Junior Olympic Nationals during that stretch, as well as sending athletes to the Region 8 Championships, while also assisting numerous gymnasts in earning Division I athletic scholarships in the process. Butts worked at the Woodward Camp (1994-96) and the UGA Gym Dog Camp (2004-06). He competed as a competitive gymnast for 10 years, reaching Class I status, and he was a Junior Olympic National Qualifier. Butts received a bachelor’s degree in business administration and management from Georgia in 2006. He received a master’s degree in athletic coaching education at WVU in 2012.

Q&A WITH THE WVU

Gymnastics COACHING STAFF

Q: Similar to 2014, there are seven newcomers on this year’s squad. What lessons can last year’s newcomers pass on to this season’s freshmen and transfers that will help them compete right away? TD: I think the biggest change from last season to this season are our training habits – they are infinitely better. Every gymnast is pushing harder and not limiting herself. We have a blank canvas with most of these gymnasts this season, and that’s a luxury we did not have last year. This year’s freshmen are learning excellent training habits from a hard-working senior class, and we should see the benefits of those habits not only this year, but also in years to come. I think that’s going to solve a ton of the issues that we had last year. JB: I also think we have an extremely strong group of newcomers, between our five freshmen and our two transfers, senior Brittney Harris (Pitt) and Audrey Tolbert (Ohio State). They all have a lot of experience at high-level meets, and we did not have to go through a lot of growing pains this preseason. I’m confident they can hit under pressure.

The 2015 senior class, including Beth Deal, looks to rebound from a disappointing 2014.

Q: What is the best way to describe the 2015 WVU gymnastics team? Associate Head Coach Travis Doak: The takeaway from this year’s squad is that while we lost a few high-scoring routines, we make up for it with an incredible amount of depth and uncertainty, which is great. The uncertainty is welcomed because we don’t know who will compete where. Last year, we knew who we needed, we just needed to get those studentathletes focused. This year – anyone can step up and fill a lineup hole at any moment.

JB: I think not qualifying stung for this year’s senior class, but I also think we had a young team last year and they did not fully comprehend what it meant to not qualify for the regional championships. The coaches and the seniors are really behind the drive this year – we’re all out for redemption. Also, we’re hosting a regional this season, so we’re focused on representing the University on that stage.

Assistant Coach Kaylyn Millick: Seniors Dayah Haley, Lia Salzano and Beth Deal were freshmen when we won the 2012 East Atlantic Gymnastics League (EAGL) Championship – they know what it takes to win a title, and they learned under great seniors in Nicole (Roach) and Tina (Maloney). They’re very confident in their leadership.

Above all that, I look at this team, and I see a lot of talent in front of me. There is enough talent on this team to qualify for the NCAA National Championships. I don’t want outsiders to assume that our lone goal is to qualify for regionals – that’s the expectation. My goal is still to take this team to the national championships. Our end goal is not the regional championships. We should have qualified in 2014, but for numerous reasons we fell short. I feel confident that we fixed the issues we had last year, and we’re ready to move forward.

Head Coach Jason Butts: They remember what their freshmen season felt like – there was a lot of excitement and hope. Those three want their legacy to be leading this squad back to a place like that season. That is their motivation for 2015, and the rest of the team is thriving off that.

TD: Last year really lit a fire inside this entire coaching staff. Our theme for 2015 is ‘No Regrets.’ A lot of us walked away last season with some regrets, but we’ve all put the work inside the gym this preseason to make sure we eliminate those regrets.

Q: Who has assumed the leadership for this year’s team?

Q: The team just missed qualifying for the 2014 NCAA Regional Championships. Have you seen a new fire in the gymnasts’ eyes throughout preseason?

Q: The team competed in a lot of big venues last season, including a podium setting at The Perfect 10 Challenge in Oklahoma City and in front of 4,200 fans at Florida’s Stephen O’Connell Center. Will that experience help this year’s squad? JB: I think that while some of those experiences last season were disappointing, each of the returning gymnasts learned valuable lessons, and we should be able to grow from those situations this year. This year’s schedule is a smaller one – we aren’t competing in as many large arenas. Therefore, this year’s squad should have the confidence to compete in front of any type of crowd, in any arena. My hope is that experience also will help us in postseason, too.

Q: After competing in the Big 12 Conference for two seasons, what has the program learned and where would you assess the program’s progress? JB: We’re coming off two third-place finishes at the Big 12 Gymnastics Championship, and I think we’re the second-best team (behind 2014 NCAA National Champion Oklahoma). We just have to make sure that we’re firing on all cylinders when we compete at the championship.

Gymnastics TD: I think the 2014 team responded well to a disappointing showing at the 2013 championship. Regardless of the finish, we scored almost two points better than we did in 2013. Now, we have to continue that trend and improve our quality of gymnastics. We did a good job last year, but it wasn’t good enough.

Q: The WVU gymnastics team was featured on TV three times in 2014. The program’s exposure continues to grow. Have you seen any benefits from the extra exposure? TD: Recruits know a lot more about WVU gymnastics, and I think that’s helping us bring better gymnasts to Morgantown. JB: The Big 12 Conference has legitimized this program and has been essential to our growth and development. It’s been huge.

Q: Kaylyn Millick, a 2013 graduate, joined the coaching staff during the offseason. How would you describe the staff’s coaching philosophy? TD: This has been one of the most effective preseasons that I’ve ever been a part of; we’re all on the same page, and we work very well together. We all rotate between events, which allows each coach to utilize all of his or her strengths. There are three minds working on each event, and we think that’s effective.

Q: The WVU gymnastics program returned to the national stage in 2014, as Hope Sloanhoffer individually qualified for the NCAA National Championships. Despite losing Hope to graduation, how does her qualification help develop this year’s team? JB: It motivates me to know that WVU was accounted for at the NCAA National Championships. Hope was a very talented individual, but as a team, we are so much stronger this year – we have a full team of Hope Sloanhoffers this year. TD: In a season where it didn’t all work out, Hope’s qualification showed this team that anything can happen. We didn’t have a great season as a team, but WVU still had a national championships’ qualifier. Imagine if we competed up to our capabilities? That’s what we need this team to believe in – anything can happen, and still you can have a positive outcome.

(Photographed Below) Former Mountaineer gymnast Kaylyn Millick joins the coaching staff in 2015.

Q: The program will welcome an NCAA Regional Championships to the WVU Coliseum for the ninth time in 2015. What advantage does competing in the WVU Coliseum give your team? JB: The WVU Coliseum is absolutely one of the best venues in all of collegiate gymnastics. This University does a phenomenal job hosting the NCAA Regional Championships, and I love that we continue to bring the championships to Morgantown. The Coliseum is a premier venue. Our fans provide an excellent atmosphere. No one on our team would ever want to compete anywhere else.

Q: This team continues to improve in the classroom, too. How do you push the student-athletes to attain athletic and academic success? JB: It’s a challenge – you can’t sugar-coat it. The WVU Academic Services staff provides excellent resources for the student-athletes, and I make sure that they each take advantage of those resources. I want gymnastics to be the No. 1 academic team on campus. As a team, we aren’t where I want us to be, but we’re improving each season.

KM: It helps that I was a gymnast on the team just two seasons ago. I remember what helped me to compete successfully, and I try to communicate that to the gymnasts. I’m taking my ideas and throwing them out there for them to try. Each gymnast’s skills are there, and as a staff, we are working on helping build the student-athletes’ confidence.

COACHING STAFF

TD: We always admired Kaylyn’s work ethic when she was a Mountaineer gymnast, and that is the greatest attribute that she brings to this year’s staff. She is instilling a strong work ethic in each of these gymnasts. She personally knows that it isn’t easy to compete in college gymnastics, and therefore she can help the gymnasts work through issues and toward results. JB: Kaylyn takes initiative, and I’m excited about that. She pinpoints areas open for improvement, and then she puts a plan of action in motion. It’s very refreshing.

Associate Head Coach

TravisDoak Seventh Season

Travis Doak enters his seventh year at his alma mater and first as the team’s associate head coach. He is responsible for coaching vault, bars and floor. He also oversees the Mountaineers’ recruiting efforts. Since Doak joined the staff in 2009, WVU made five straight NCAA Regional Championships appearances (2009-13), earned one conference championship and compiled an overall record of 87-52 (.626). Doak helped guide Hope Sloanhoffer to the NCAA National Championships, as she individually qualified in the all-around. She was the first Mountaineer to qualify since 2009, Doak’s first season as an assistant, and the 18th in program history. Sloanhoffer qualified after finishing second in the all-around and first on beam at the 2014 NCAA Athens Regional Championships. The Mountaineers posted their best score at the Big 12 Gymnastics Championship in 2014, tallying 196.375 and finishing in third place. Three Mountaineers earned four All-Big 12 Championship Team honors, and Sloanhoffer finished first in the all-around with a 39.425 score, the program’s first Big 12 title. The squad finished the season with a 6-11 (0-4 Big 12) mark. Sloanhoffer (all-around), Beth Deal (balance beam), Alexa Goldberg (uneven bars) and Nicolette Swoboda (allaround) individually qualified for the Athens Regional. The team finished the year ranked No. 28 nationally on vault and uneven bars. Doak’s assistantship was evident in 2013, as he helped guide the Mountaineers through their first season in the Big 12 Conference. WVU went 196.0 or better in every home meet, a feat never before achieved in program history, and finished the year at 13-9 (1-3 Big 12). The Mountaineers were nationally ranked six times in the GymInfo Poll and peaked at No. 16. The squad finished third at its first Big 12 Gymnastics Championship and qualified for its 35th NCAA Regional appearance. Doak was integral in the success of the Mountaineers’ vault and floor lineup in 2013, as both units were nationally ranked each week but one. Jaida Lawrence concluded the year nationally ranked No. 43 on vault, and Alaska Richardson ranked No. 48 on floor. Additionally, he helped lead Kaylyn Millick and Sloanhoffer to respective No. 27 and No. 42 all-around rankings. Lawrence earned the program’s first All-Big 12 honor, as she was named to the vault team, while Millick earned a spot on the All-Big 12 Championship Team for her second-place finish in the all-around. Under Doak, the Mountaineers have secured 51 all-conference honors, including 30 All-EAGL First Team awards, two gymnast of the year distinctions and two outstanding senior gymnast nods. Doak played a major role in 2012, helping the Mountaineers transition under first-year coach Jason Butts and parlay the change into instant success. In addition to the Mountaineers’ league-best seventh EAGL title, the team’s first since 2008, WVU advanced to the NCAA Auburn Regional Championships as the No. 5 seed and finished in fifth place with a 195.9 score, the team’s best-ever regional point total. With seven wins at the league championship, WVU finished the year with a 21-5 record, the program’s first 20-win season since 2008. The Mountaineers collected four individual league titles en route to the team win, with Sloanhoffer finishing first on vault, bars and the all-around, and Beth Deal taking the win on beam.

Sloanhoffer ended the season ranked nationally on vault, beam and the all-around. Four gymnasts were ranked on vault in the Southeast Region, while three gymnasts each were ranked on bars and floor. As a team, the Mountaineers ranked in the nation’s top 10 on floor for three straight weeks. The team never dropped out of the top 25 on floor and ended the year ranked No. 21. Doak was instrumental in the team’s success in 2011, as he guided the vault and floor lineups to the No. 1 and No. 2 EAGL rankings, respectively. Those lineups also ranked No. 17 and No. 21, respectively, in the nation. Integral in the development of Sloanhoffer, the rookie finished with nine EAGL weekly honors and first-team recognition on vault, floor and beam. She finished the year ranked No. 1 in the league on beam and vault, and No. 4 on floor; she also ranked nationally No. 17, No. 37 and No. 48, respectively, on each apparatus. Doak also mentored Tina Maloney to the No. 2 EAGL vault ranking, while Amy Bieski ranked No. 5 in the league. Bieski, the league’s gymnast and outstanding senior gymnast of the year, won the EAGL bars title, and Sloanhoffer and Maloney finished in a tie for second on vault at the championship. In total, three gymnasts vaulted to scores of 9.9 or better in 2011, including Sloanhoffer’s career-best 9.95 score. In his second season at WVU, Doak helped guide the Mountaineer vault and floor lineups to the No. 4 and No. 5 EAGL rankings. Doak’s first season with the Mountaineers in 2009 was successful, as the team finished nationally ranked 17th on vault and 21st on bars. In the EAGL, the team finished ranked first on floor and second on vault and bars. He also helped coach Mehgan Morris to a national championships berth, as she finished fifth in the all-around at the NCAA Southeast Regional Championships. She also won EAGL bars, floor and all-around titles and was named the league’s most outstanding senior gymnast. Additionally, Tabor and Maloney earned the EAGL vault title in Doak’s first season. A native of Beverly, W.Va., Doak came to WVU after serving as an assistant coach at Penn State in 2008, where he was responsible for recruiting, team training, spotting on all skill levels and administrative duties. His primary coaching responsibilities included oversight of the Nittany Lion vault and floor exercise. He helped PSU sign four top-10 Junior Olympic finalists and guided the Nittany Lions to a 17-9 record. Doak also served as an assistant at New Hampshire in 2006-07. His responsibilities included team workouts, recruiting, video work and community service initiatives. He began his coaching career in 2004 as a volunteer assistant at West Virginia, working with spotting, fundraising and recruit evaluations. Doak earned his bachelor’s degree from West Virginia in sport management in 2006 and a master’s degree in athletic coaching education in 2008.

Assistant Coach

Kaylyn Millick First Season

Kaylyn Millick enters her first season at West Virginia University as an assistant coach and oversees the team’s choreography for beam and floor. She also leads the team’s community service outreach program. A three-year letterwinner for WVU from 2011-13, Millick served as a student assistant in 2014. As a student assistant, Millick helped guide senior Hope Sloanhoffer to a 2014 NCAA National Championships bid as an all-around competitor, the Mountaineers’ first qualification since 2009. Sloanhoffer finished the season as the NCAA Athens Regional Championship beam champion and the Big 12 all-around champion, the program’s first Big 12 title winner. An all-around competitor who transferred from Eastern Michigan after the 2010 season and found a home at WVU, Millick tallied 1,290.3 points in three years as a Mountaineer and saw time in 38 meets. She ranks ninth in the program record book with 12 career scores of 39.0 or better. Millick ranks 20th all-time with eight career scores of 9.9 or better, six of which came on floor, the 10th-best total in program history.

As a senior in 2013, Millick earned the Linda Burdette-Good Award as the team’s Most Valuable Gymnast. The first-ever Mountaineer to earn a spot on the All-Big 12 Championship Team (all-around), she reached the podium a team-best 23 times and scored career-best marks on vault (9.85), bars (9.9), beam (9.875), floor (9.95) and the all-around (39.4). She finished second in the all-around at the Big 12 Championship with a 39.2 score and finished the season ranked No. 27 nationally in the all-around with a 39.3 regional qualifying score (RQS). A four-time All-EAGL honoree, Millick led the Mountaineers to the 2012 East Atlantic Gymnastics League (EAGL) Championship as a junior. She followed that meet with a 10th-place finish in the all-around at the 2012 NCAA Auburn Regional Championships with a then-career-best score of 39.225. In her first season at WVU, Millick earned the team’s highest finish at the 2011 NCAA Southeast Regional Championships, placing fifth on floor with a 9.85 score. Millick competed as an all-around gymnast at Eastern Michigan in 2010, and at the time of her transfer, she ranked eighth (39.0) on the EMU all-time all-around scores list and ninth (9.85) on the EMU all-time beam score list. The squad’s top all-arounder as a freshman, she individually qualified for the NCAA Central Regional Championships and was nominated for the MAC Gymnast and Freshman of the Year Awards. In addition to her athletic achievements, Millick is a two-time NACGC/W Scholastic All-American and All-EAGL Academic Team member. She was named to the 2013 Academic All-Big 12 Gymnastics Team and also earned a spot on the President’s List, Dean’s List, Big 12 Commissioner’s and Garrett Ford Academic Honor Rolls while at WVU. Millick, a native of Washington, Pennsylvania, was a two-time national qualifier at Gym Dandy’s. Millick earned her bachelor’s degree in exercise and physiology at WVU in May 2014.

2015 PRESEASON Notebook Experience Key

Young one season ago, the West Virginia University gymnastics team returns 11 from the 2014 campaign, including seniors Beth Deal, Dayah Haley and Lia Salzano, all freshmen when the squad won its last conference title in the East Atlantic Gymnastics League (EAGL) in 2012. Fourth-year coach Jason Butts will lean on this class to lead the Mountaineers through their third season in the Big 12 Conference. “That group of seniors has seen everything throughout their time at WVU,” said Butts. “We will rely on them to help guide this program back to the NCAA Regional Championships. But we don’t want to just settle for a bid to the regional championships. Our goal each season is to advance to the NCAA National Championships, and that’s where we hope to end this year, too.” The Mountaineers return to the gym off a 2014 season that saw the squad finish 6-11 and just miss qualifying for the 2014 NCAA Regional Championships. Four Mountaineers individually qualified for the NCAA Athens Regional Championships, including Deal, who finished ninth on the balance beam. Sophomores Nicolette Swoboda and Alexa Goldberg placed seventh in the all-around and eighth on the uneven bars, respectively. Former Mountaineer Hope Sloanhoffer finished first on balance beam and second in the all-around and advanced to the NCAA National Championships.

Transfers, Freshmen Join Mountaineers

Seven fresh faces join the WVU gymnastics team this season: redshirt-senior Brittney Harris, junior Audrey Tolbert and freshmen Robyn Bernard, Amanda Bowman, Jordan Gillette, Zaakira Muhammad and Alexa Phillip. Harris spent the previous four seasons at Pitt, while Tolbert competed for Ohio State from 2013-14.

Confidence in the Big 12 Conference

The Mountaineers’ strength of schedule enjoyed a large boost when the squad joined the Big 12 Conference in 2012-13. Though WVU shows a 1-7 two-year conference record, the program made much progress in 2014, as the Mountaineers scored 196.375 at the Big 12 Championship in Morgantown, an almost two-point increase from its 2013 showing. Three Mountaineers earned All-Big 12 Championship Team honors. Seniors Beth Deal and Dayah Haley finished second (9.9) on beam and third (39.125) in the all-around, respectively. Deal’s showing was her top career score in the WVU Coliseum, while Haley’s finish came in her first career all-around performance. Additionally, former Mountaineer Hope Sloanhoffer won the conference’s all-around crown and finished third on floor; her all-around win was the first Big 12 Conference title for a WVU gymnast.

Gymnastics The 2015 Big 12 Championship will be held at Oklahoma’s Lloyd Noble Center, in Norman, Oklahoma, on March 21. The Sooners have won seven Big 12 titles, including the last three straight, and captured their first National Championship in 2014. OU is the first Big 12 program to win the NCAA title.

A Look at the 2015 Slate

The Mountaineers’ 2015 schedule is highlighted by six meets at the WVU Coliseum, including the 2015 NCAA Morgantown Regional Championships in April. The squad officially opens its regular season on Jan. 9 at Maryland with George Washington. Following a tri-meet at Ohio State, WVU will open its home season at the WVU Coliseum against Iowa State and George Washington on Jan. 25. The team’s full road schedule includes trips to NC State, New Hampshire and Pitt. The Mountaineers’ home slate features meets with Denver and Penn State. WVU will travel to Norman, Oklahoma, for the first time since 2009 for the 2015 Big 12 Gymnastics Championship on March 21. The Mountaineers will play host to the 2015 NCAA Regional Gymnastics Championships on Saturday, April 4, at 4 p.m. This season will be WVU’s ninth regional championships.

Coaching Staff in Place

Coach Butts announced in late May the hiring of Kaylyn Millick as assistant coach. Millick, a three-year letterwinner for WVU from 2011-13, will oversee the team’s choreography for beam and floor, as well as lead the team’s community service outreach program. She served as a student assistant in 2014. Butts also announced over the summer the elevation of seventh-year coach Travis Doak to associate head coach. Doak is responsible for coaching vault, bars and floor, and he also oversees the Mountaineers’ recruiting efforts.

2015 PREVIEW

EVENT Previews Vault

The Mountaineers enter 2015 much improved on vault. Though the lineup lost top vaulter Hope Sloanhoffer to graduation, three key contributors return, including 2013 All-Big 12 vaulter Jaida Lawrence. The junior was second on the team with a 9.814 season average last year and hit for a team- and personal-best 9.925 at The Perfect 10 Challenge. Two freshmen pegged to contribute right away are Zaakira Muhammad and Amanda Bowman. “Vault is a stronger lineup this season,” said Butts. “We lost Hope and Erica (Smith), but we have at least five vaults we can use right away. I also think we’re going to be able to compete vaults we couldn’t get consistent last year, like Beth Deal’s and Emma Lasker’s. “Zaakira and Amanda will be the highlights in this lineup, and Jaida has the potential to go 9.9 every meet. We’ll also have Dayah (Haley) back. Really, we have 10 gymnasts we can put in the lineup, and that is a luxury we did not have last year. I compare this lineup to our 2012 vault lineup – the potential is there for us to score 9.8 in every spot.”

The Mountaineers’ vault lineup will benefit from fresh talent in 2015.

Uneven Bars

The Mountaineers consistently improved on the uneven bars as the 2014 season progressed, scoring 49.0 or better in three of the final four meets. Butts believes the team will pick up right where it left off this year. “As much as we improved on this event last season, we’re infinitely better this year,” he explained. “We have huge releases, and the dismounts have been upgraded, too. I believe this is going to be a strong lineup for us this year.”

WVU looks to replace key contributors Sloanhoffer and Smith, No. 1 (9.804 avg.) and No. 3 (9.752 avg.) on the team last year, with senior Dayah Haley, transfers Brittany Harris and Audrey Tolbert, and newcomers Muhammad and Robyn Bernard.

2015 PREVIEW

Sophomore Alexa Goldberg is expected to anchor the lineup for the second straight season. A 2014 NCAA Athens Regional Championships individual qualifier in the event, she ranked No. 2 on the team with a 9.767 season average and hit for 9.9 or better three teams. Also expected to return to the lineup are juniors Lindsey Litten and Lawrence, as well as sophomore Nicolette Swoboda.

“We were not happy with this lineup in 2014,” Butts unabashedly explained. “We weren’t used to having so many issues and so little depth. We honestly only had six gymnasts we could put into the lineup.

2015 PREVIEW

“This year, there is a ton of depth. We don’t know who our top six are because we have so many options, and that’s a great problem to have. I think we have four legitimate E tumbling passes that should be in the lineup this year.”

Haley has stood out the most throughout preseason, and the coaches believe she could be the lineup’s superstar this year. The Pasadena, Maryland, native ranked No. 2 on the team in 2014 with a 9.711 average. Also expected to return to the lineup this season are Idell, Goldberg, Swoboda and sophomore Mackenzie Myers. Additionally, the coaches are excited to see Muhammad, Bernard, Harris, Bowman and freshmen Jordan Gillette in a competition setting. “This year’s routines are louder and more fun,” Butts finished. “I can’t wait to see this lineup compete.”

Beth DEAL

Balance Beam

Without question, Butts believes the Mountaineers will be strongest on balance beam this season, despite losing lineup staples Sloanhoffer, Smith and Amanda Carpenter to graduation. “We can replace those routines, and then some. We easily have 17 10.0 beam routines this year,” he explained. “The mentality and training for this event are different this season – you are not allowed to jump off the beam in Cary Gym. This training have given the gymnasts a great mindset in a competition setting, and that’s awesome. The skills and routines are there; now, we just need the lineup to hit under pressure. I really believe that by the time we reach March, we can score 49.0 or better every meet.” Senior Beth Deal is returns to the anchor position. The Parkersburg, West Virginia, native, a 2014 NCAA Athens Regional Championships qualifier in the event, tallied 9.9 and finished in second place at last year’s Big 12 Championship. She paced last year’s squad with a 9.76 season average. While the lineup is expected to be fluid this season, several gymnasts should see consistent time, including junior Melissa Idell, Bernard, Haley and Litten.

Review

Sloanhoffer Signs Off in Style One of the steadiest gymnasts in Mountaineer history, Hope Sloanhoffer enjoyed a successful final season in the Old Gold and Blue, individually qualifying in the all-around for the 2014 NCAA National Championships. She finished 19th in the all-around. Sloanhoffer just missed earning All-America honors on vault, as she placed ninth with a season-best 9.875 score. She also tallied 9.875 on floor, 9.75 on the uneven bars and 9.225 on the balance beam. Sloanhoffer’s performance at the National Championships pushed her four-year point total to 1,876.525, ranking her fifth all-time in the Mountaineer record book. She competed in the allaround 39 times throughout her career, the ninth-best total in program history.

Regional Recognition Though the Mountaineers did not qualify as a team for the 2014 NCAA Regional Championships, four student-athletes secured individual bids to compete at the Athens Regional, in Athens, Georgia, based on their regional qualifying scores (RQS). Hope Sloanhoffer and Nicolette Swoboda competed in the all-around, and the duo finished second (39.175) and seventh (38.975), respectively. Sloanhoffer also tied for first (9.85) on balance beam; the finishes earned her a bid to the NCAA National Championships, where she competed in the all-around. Sloanhoffer’s win on beam was the seventh regional event title for a WVU gymnast and the first since Kristen Macrie won floor at the 2001 North Central Regional Championships. She was the third beam champion in program history and the first since Danielle Lilly won the title at the 1997 Southeast Regional. Beth Deal and Alexa Goldberg also qualified for the regional championships and competed on beam and bars, respectively. Goldberg finished in eighth place with a 9.85 mark, the fourth-best score. Deal placed ninth with a 9.775 score, also the fourth-best mark awarded. In total, WVU hit for 10-for-10 routines at the Athens Regional Championships. WVU just missed qualifying as a team, as the squad ranked No. 37 in the final GymInfo Poll with a 195.15 RQS. The top 36 teams earn a bid to compete at regional championships.

Big 12 Accolades For the second straight season, the WVU gymnastics team earned six Big 12 Conference weekly awards. Hope Sloanhoffer and Beth Deal each scored two honors, as Sloanhoffer was twice named the Big 12 Gymnast of the Week in consecutive weeks, and Deal was selected as the Big 12 Specialist of the Week twice in three weeks. Additionally, freshmen Alexa Goldberg and Nicolette Swoboda were each named the Big 12 Newcomer of the Week once.

Gymnastics Swinging Success The Mountaineers were much improved on the uneven bars in 2014, earning scores of 49.0 or better three times, including a season-best 49.05 twice. WVU scored 49.0+ only once in 2013. Freshman Alexa Goldberg won bars outright in her career debut at Kentucky on Jan. 10, scoring a career-high 9.925, the ninth-best mark in program history and the highest Mountaineer bars point total since 2009. WVU was nationally ranked on bars each week through Feb. 17. The squad finished the year ranked No. 28 with a 48.965 RQS. 2014 Big 12 Championship (all-around podium)

Book Smart, Too

Big Improvement For the first time in school history, WVU played host to a Big 12 Conference sponsored event, as the 2014 Big 12 Gymnastics Championship was held at the WVU Coliseum on March 22. The Mountaineers put forth a season-best performance, scoring 196.375 and finishing in third place. The score was nearly two points better than the team’s showing at the 2013 championship. Three gymnasts earned four All-Big 12 Championship Team honors, led by Hope Sloanhoffer, who won the all-around title with a 39.425 score. Sloanhoffer’s win was the first Big 12 title for a Mountaineer gymnast. She also finished tied for third on floor with a career-best 9.9 score. Additionally, Beth Deal placed second on beam with a 9.9 mark, her top career score in the Coliseum, and Dayah Haley finished third in her first career all-around performance with a 39.125 mark.

The WVU gymnastics team pushed its academic success to new heights in 2014, as seven gymnasts were named Scholastic All-Americas by the National Association of Collegiate Coaches/Women (NACGC/W), two more than the squad’s 2013 total. The Mountaineer program has earned 106 honors since 1987.

Team highlights from the meet included a 49.075 showing on vault and a 49.05 score on floor, both season-high home marks. Additionally, WVU matched its season-best 49.05 score on bars and hit six-for-six on beam.

Hope Sloanhoffer and Bethany Yurko earned their fourth career honors, while Jaida Lawrence scored her second career honor. Four earned their first career honors: Erica Smith, Lindsey Litten, Mackenzie Myers and Rachel Sine.

Prior to the championship, Sloanhoffer was named to the 2014 All-Big 12 Gymnastics Team for the all-around. She was the first WVU gymnast to score an all-around honor and the second Mountaineer in two years to earn an All-Big 12 honor.

Seven gymnasts also earned a spot on the Academic All-Big 12 Gymnastics Team, again two more honors than the 2013 team’s total.

Newcomers Make Impact Seven gymnasts joined the Mountaineers in 2014, with sophomore transfer Lindsey Litten (Central Michigan) and freshmen Alexa Goldberg, Emma Lasker, Mackenzie Myers and Nicolette Swoboda all earning competition time.

Additionally, Myers and Nicolette Swoboda were named to the 2013-14 Academic All-Big 12 Rookie Team.

2014 REVIEW

Swoboda and Goldberg turned heads throughout their rookie campaigns, and each earned an individual qualification to the NCAA Athens Regional Championships, with Swoboda competing in the all-around and Goldberg on the uneven bars. Swoboda tallied 464.3 points in 12 meets as an all-arounder, the team’s second-best point total. She earned eight podium finishes and hit 36-of-40 routines. Goldberg competed in 12 meets, 11 on bars and floor, and finished with 223.35 points, the fifth-best team total. She tallied five victories on bars and finished with three scores of 9.9 or higher, including a team season-high score of 9.925.

Six gymnasts earned first-team awards, with Sloanhoffer, Yurko and Lia Salzano scoring their second straight awards. Smith, Lawrence and Melissa Idell also were named to the first team, and Beth Deal landed on the second team.

Myers saw time on floor in nine meets. She earned three podium finishes, including two event wins, and posted a season-best 9.925 score against Ohio State, WVU’s top individual floor score in 2014. Litten competed on bars in nine meets and posted a season-best 9.825 score at Maryland, while Lasker competed on vault twice.

Linda Burdette-Good

37 Seasons: 1975-2011 / Record: 644-263-4 Only the second coach in the history of West Virginia gymnastics, Burdette-Good constantly worked to upgrade the Mountaineer program. She took the program from its infancy as a member of the West Virginia Conference in the AIAW all the way to the NCAA Championships. The WVU alumna coached All-Americans Janàe Cox, Lajuanda Moody, Kristin Quackenbush and Shari Retton and was named 1995 NCAA Southeast Regional coach of the year. In 2004, she eclipsed the 500-win milestone, and in 2009, she amassed over 600 victories, making her the all-time winningest Mountaineer coach with a WVU team. She retired in 2011 after 37 highly successful and memorable seasons and is a member of the WVU Sports Hall of Fame.

3 Seasons: 2012-present / Record: 40-25 Elevated to the head coach position after serving five years as an assistant under 37-year coach Linda Burdette-Good, coach Jason Butts is determined to put the West Virginia University gymnastics team back on the national stage. Following a fantastic first season that saw the Mountaineers secure their first 20-win season since 2008 and earn their league-best seventh EAGL title, Butts guided WVU though a difficult 2013 schedule in its first season in the Big 12 Conference. That WVU team became the first squad in the programâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s history to tally 196.0 or better in every home regular-season meet.

Championship

Appearances

1982 AIAW Championships

Led by an unheralded freshman from Fairmont, W.Va., named Shari Retton, the 1982 gymnastics team surprised the country by finishing third at the AIAW championships in Memphis, Tenn. Coach Linda Burdette’s Mountaineers, at the University’s first ever national championships, finished behind first place Florida and runner up Alabama, and ahead of national powers Georgia, Ohio State, Brigham Young and Washington State, among others. Retton captured First Team All-America honors on the vault, uneven parallel bars, floor exercise and the all around. WVU qualified for the championships by winning the EAIAW Regional at Clarion State. The Mountaineers scored 139.25 points to edge Yale’s 138.35. That title is still WVU’s only regional championship. The 1982 season saw 18 wins against seven losses. The biggest win of the season was a 142.30-142.10 victory against eventual national champion Florida, a meet that WVU won on the last gymnast of the last rotation. The 142.30 points was a school record at the time. Also during the 1982 season, West Virginia beat Duke, Kentucky, North Carolina, North Carolina State, Maryland and Pitt. A side note to the season were Retton’s ties to the athletic world. Her younger sister, Mary Lou, went on to become an Olympic Gold Medalist. Her father, Ronnie, played basketball for the Mountaineers from 1957-59. After winning four letters and graduating, Retton later married Mike Timko, a former Mountaineer quarterback (1985-87). The 1982 season was WVU’s last year in the AIAW after a nine-year association. The Mountaineers began NCAA competition with the 1983 season.

1995 NCAA Championships

After years of being on the outside looking in, the 1995 WVU gymnastics team took the step to the next level with an at large bid to the 1995 NCAA Championships in Athens, Ga. The senior led group found the right mix of talent, desire, experience and coaching and put it all together when it counted - at the NCAA Southeast Regional. In fact, the whole season was something magical. Ten team records were set or tied throughout the course of the year, while five individual marks were reached. The 15-6 Mountaineers won their fourth straight Atlantic 10 title and Karla Hairston and Kristin Quackenbush were named Atlantic 10 Gymnasts of the Year, while Umme Salim garnered A10 Freshman of the Year honors.

Coach Linda Burdette was named NCAA Southeast Regional Coach of the Year. Freshman Adriana Manago earned NACGC/W scholastic All-America status, while WVU’s first ever trip to the NCAA Championships was highlighted by Quackenbush, the talented sophomore all-arounder who earned second team All-America honors on the floor exercise. The most rewarding accomplishment of the 1995 season was that of WVU’s three seniors, Liz Byrnes, Jenni Kaye and Shannon Migli, all of whom overcame injuries that plagued them their first three years in Morgantown to become major contributors in WVU’s run to the championships.

1999 NCAA Championships

What appeared initially as a tragedy for the 1999 West Virginia gymnastics team was actually an awakening. The Mountaineers had attained a 17-2 record prior to the East Atlantic Gymnastics League meet and entered the meet as one of only three schools from the EAGL ranked in the Top 25. For the first time since the inception of the EAGL in 1996, the Mountaineers failed to win the EAGL crown in 1999. But, despite finishing an uncharacteristic sixth at the EAGL Championships at Maryland, the Mountaineers couldn’t have scripted a more opportune time to amend that setback, regroup, and really let their true colors show than at the NCAA Regionals before the home crowd. West Virginia hosted the NCAA Region 6 Championships at the WVU Coliseum, which assembled five of the top 25 teams in the country, including No. 2 Alabama. The Mountaineers showcased their most brilliant talent at this meet and attained a 195.275 team score, placing them second in their region behind Alabama and qualifying them for their second trip to the national championship in five years. Although the Mountaineers placed 12th at the NCAA Championship in Salt Lake City, Utah, coach Linda Burdette had plenty of reasons to be proud of her squad. Five WVU gymnasts earned all-EAGL notice and for the fourth-straight season, the Mountaineers were undefeated in the Coliseum in regular season competition. One of the most significant of those wins came on February 20, when the Mountaineers defeated Minnesota and North Carolina State, giving Burdette the 400th and 401st victories of her career. She became the fourth coach in school history to reach that milestone. Senior Nikki West punctuated her stellar vaulting career with two more perfect 10.0s in 1999. West scored five 10.0s on vault, tying her with former WVU gymnast Kristin Quakenbush for the most perfect scores in school history.

2000 NCAA Championships

From the very start those around the 2000 gymnastics team knew this team would be a special one. Focused around some exciting newcomers and perhaps the most storied senior class in school history the Mountaineers were destined to rewrite the WVU record book. West Virginia posted a 19-10 record and established four of the top 10 team scores in school history, including three of the top four. The Mountaineers also set school event records on the vault and beam and tied the school mark on bars. But despite its record-setting season, WVU struggled at the EAGL Championships, finishing a disappointing fifth. With a sour taste in their mouths the 2000 Mountaineers were determined to do what no other WVU team had done before - earn a trip to the NCAA Championships for a second straight season. To do that West Virginia had to finish in the top two slots at the Region 2 Championship meet in Minneapolis, Minn. Not an easy task considering the competition, which included No. 3 Utah and Top 25 teams Denver and Minnesota. The Mountaineers, largely behind the efforts of seniors Kelly Foley and Danielle Lilly, managed to scrap and claw their way to a second place finish. West Virginia proved its shaky performance at the EAGL meet to be an aberration by simply being more consistent than the opposition and earning a trip to the NCAA Championship in Boise, Idaho.

Although the Mountaineers finished in 12th place the 2000 season stands out as one where WVU showed tremendous determination and heart. The individual talent was amazing, but it was how the 2000 Mountaineers jelled together that made the West Virginia coaching staff the proudest. Sophomore Kristen Macrie proved to be the heart and soul of the team and was WVU’s most consistent gymnast throughout the year. Despite not leading the team in any individual event, Macrie’s consistency was her calling card for the season. The freshman class, which was called the best recruiting class ever by coaches in the preseason, lived up to its billing with TeShawne Jackson and Dinorh Boyd turning in numerous top-five finishes, while Amanda Halovanic found her niche for the Mountaineers on vault and floor. But the 2000 season will forever be linked to its senior class of Foley, Lilly, Shirley Lee and Jessica Nonnemacher. Foley and Lilly provided much of the leadership, with each enjoying her finest season as a Mountaineer. Lee saw her season cut short at the midway point, but her early season performances provided the underclassmen with the opportunity to find their stride. One of the lasting images of the 2000 season will be of Nonnemacher, who despite being told by doctors in 1998 that her career was over, returned to compete on bars. Pictured below are members of WVU’s 2000 NCAA team (left to right): Front Row: TeShawne Jackson, Jessica Rohm, Kelly Foley, Shirley Lee and Dinorh Boyd; Second Row: Jen Cooper, Danielle Lilly, Jessica Nonnemacher, Kristen Muirhead and Erin Signoracci; Third Row: Kristen Macrie, Allison Pratus and Melissa Mascaro; Back Row: Allison Gaidish, Jaime Hill, Amanda Halovanic and Christen Simpson.

Shari Retton

Shari Retton-Timko was WVU’s first women’s sports All-American, earning first-team honors in the all-around, floor exercise, uneven bars and vault at the 1982 AIAW National Gymnastics Championships in Memphis.

A four-year letterwinner, Retton, just a freshman, helped the 10th-seeded Mountaineers finish third at those national championships, while she posted a third place individual finish in the all-around (36.30). A two-time team captain, Retton went on to earn a number of accolades, including NCAA regional balance beam champion, Most Valuable Gymnast and Atlantic 10 Senior of the Year. WVU qualified for the NCAA regionals each year during her career. She was inducted into the WVU Sports Hall of Fame in 2001. The daughter of Ronnie Retton, who captained WVU’s 1959 NCAA runner-up basketball team, the Fairmont, W.Va., native is the older sister of Olympic champion gymnast Mary Lou Retton; their brother Ron played baseball at WVU. Married to former WVU quarterback Mike Timko, Shari currently lives in Houston, Pa.

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 (19982000), and Vanderbilt University (20012007). 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 education-governance organizations and committees, including the Big Ten Conference Council of Presidents, the Inter-University Council of Ohio, the Business-Higher Education Forum, and the American Association of Universities. He was chair of the American Council on Education’s Commission on Higher Education Attainment and served as co-chair of the Association of Public and Land-Grant Universities’ Energy Advisory Committee. In 2009, Gee was invited to join the International Advisory Board of King Abdulaziz University in Saudi Arabia. Active in a number of national professional and service organizations during his tenures, he has served on the boards for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Muse-

Keli Cunningham, Executive Senior Athletic Director, assumed the role of Interim Director of Athletics at West Virginia University on December 18, 2014. “I feel extremely fortunate to lead such a great staff and an exceptional group of student-athletes during this period of transition,” Cunningham said. “In particular, I want to thank President (Gordon) Gee for having the confidence in me to serve in this capacity and I want to thank Oliver Luck as well for his mentorship over the past four years.” For the past year Cunningham has worked closely with Luck on the day-today administration and management of the athletic department as his top senior administrator, directly overseeing the Athletics Compliance and Student Service units.

SCORING Information SCORING INFORMATION

In collegiate team competition, six gymnasts perform on each of the four apparatuses (vault, uneven parallel bars, balance beam and floor exercise). The five best individual scores per event comprise the cumulative team total. Collegiate competition requires at least two judges to evaluate the score of an athleteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s performance. Their scores are averaged to arrive at a final mark. A perfect team score is 200, with top collegiate scores ranging between 193.00 and 198.00. Optional routines, choreographed to express the gymnastsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; skills that they perform best, are based on a score of 9.5 with a possibility of an additional five-tenths for completing more difficult skills and or combinations. JUDGES USE THE FOLLOWING CATEGORIES TO EVALUATE OPTIONAL ROUTINES: Value parts (difficulty)

VAULT

The vaulting event requires speed, quickness and explosive power. Vaults are divided into four categories: handsprings, forward saltos, backward saltos and vaults from a roundoff. This is just the fifth season that vaults from a roundoff will be permitted in collegiate competition.

Lia SALZANO

138

Each of these vaults is assigned a value of up to 10.0. Deductions are taken from the starting value of the vault. Basis for deductions stems from technical errors in the areas of pre-flight (approach to the horse), repulsion (the rise off the horse), and after-flight (distance and height from the horse). The gymnast must remain motionless upon landing or a deduction will be taken. The most common vaults are a handspring on-front somersault off, tucked position 9.8, piked position 9.9. Some of the more difficult vaults include a 1/2 on, 1/2 off front lay-out (10.0), full twisting lay-out Tsuk (10.0), pike front 1/2 (10.0), tuck 1/2 (9.9) and piked (9.9).

Gymnastics UNEVEN BARS

A complete routine on the uneven bars comprises some 10 to 15 moves, consisting mainly of swinging and suspension skills utilizing both bars with many regrasps. A change of direction is required in the routine, while pauses for concentration,extra swings and uncharacteristic elements are to be avoided. The gymnast must change bars two times, and must have at least two flight elements. As mentioned above under scoring, bonus parts worth up to 0.5 can be awarded for completing difficult skills. On this event, some of the bonus moves include somersaulting release moves, difficult pirouette work and somersaulting dismounts.

BALANCE BEAM

The routine must be composed of elements from the following groups: tumbling with and without flight, strength and dance (i.e. turns, leaps and body waves). Special requirements on the balance beam are a tumbling series, a large jump, a full turn and a series of skills combining dance and acrobatics. The routine must last between 1:10 and 1:30. Performing on the beam requires precise movement and intense concentration, as each wobble results in a deduction. Elements performed on the beam that receive bonus points are somersaulting mounts, double-back dismounts, double turns, one-arm handstands and jumps showing maximum flexibility.

FLOOR EXERCISE

Floor exercise is a combination of dance, tumbling and acrobatics performed to music. Creative and dynamic changes in rhythm and energy levels help to create an exciting routine where composition plays an important role. The exercise must last between 1:10 and 1:30. A routine consists of two or three tumbling â&#x20AC;&#x153;passesâ&#x20AC;? and the gymnast must balance the difficulty of her tumbling skills and dance skills and should finish the routine as strongly as it was started. Bonus points are awarded on this event for more than two twists in the same somersault, a double-back preceded by a front or back somersault, a triple turn and certain unique dance elements. Specific deductions are taken for stepping off the mat and for being out of sync with the music.
