SUNAHARA

HEAD COACH FOURTH SEASON

Reed Sunahara enters his fourth season at the helm of the Mountaineers after being named the head coach of the West Virginia University volleyball program in March of 2015. The 2017 season marked the first time in 26 years the Mountaineers made the postseason, with WVU reaching the National Invitational Volleyball Championship (NIVC) Semifinals. West Virginia also won three of its last four Big 12 Conference matches, upsetting No. 14 Kansas in the team’s regular-season finale for their first-ever win over a top-25 team. In Sunahara’s first three seasons, West Virginia has steadily risen in the Big 12, finishing the 2017 campaign in fifth for the first time since joining the league in 2012. Additionally, West Virginia’s 21-13 record is only the second time in program history the Mountaineers have won 20 or more matches since their move to bigtime volleyball in the Big East in 1995. With 21 wins in 2017, Sunahara has earned his highest win total as head coach of the Mountaineers. WVU also tied the team’s longest win streak since 2014 with a win over TCU on Sept. 20, 2017, notching 10 consecutive victories in the span of 18 days. However, the streak was snapped on Sept. 23, as the team suffered a heartbreaking five-set loss to No. 6 Texas inside the WVU Coliseum. Senior Mia Swanegan, a three-year starter at middle blocker, earned postseason recognition for the first time in her career, landing on the 2017 All-Big 12 Second Team. Emerging as one of the conference’s leading blockers, Swanegan finished third in league action with 1.23 blockers per set. Outside hitter Payton Caffrey also was named to the 2017 All-Big 12 First Team for the second time in her career, as well as to the American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA) All-Midwest Regional Honorable Mention Team.

Senior Gianna Gotterba led the way in the classroom, as she was awarded the 2018 Dr. Gerald Lage Academic Achievement Award by the Big 12 Conference, the league’s highest academic honor. Six Mountaineers also were named to the 2017 Academic AllBig 12 Volleyball Team, while all six freshmen were awarded a spot on the Academic All-Big 12 Rookie Team. In addition, West Virginia was named as a recipient of the AVCA Team Academic Award for the second straight year. The 2016 season saw WVU more than double its 2015-win total, posting 12 victories in Sunahara’s second season. On Sept. 27, 2016, Sunahara notched his first Big 12 win with a 3-0 sweep of Texas Tech in Lubbock, Texas. The Mountaineers added a win over TCU a week later and finished the season with three league triumphs, while dropping a heartbreaker to No. 4 Kansas in five sets to end their home slate in November. Under Sunahara’s guidance, Caffrey, who earned Big 12 Rookie of the Week honors four times, became the first Mountaineer in program history to earn AVCA Midwest Region Freshman of the Year accolades in addition to spots on the AVCA All-Midwest Region Team, All-Big 12 First Team and All-Big 12 Freshman Team. Setter Erin Slinde joined Caffrey in receiving league accolades, as she also landed on the All-Big 12 Freshman Team. Six Mountaineers earned spots on the Academic All-Big 12 First Team, with senior Hannah Shreve earning CoSIDA Academic All-District II Team accolades as well. In his first season guiding the Mountaineers, Sunahara led the program to a thrilling 3-2 win over Marshall. The victory marked WVU’s first over its in-state rival since 2010, bringing the Golden Ball Trophy back to Morgantown.

Outside hitter Morgan Montgomery and Gotterba flourished under Sunahara’s tutelage. After posting 38 kills her freshman season, Montgomery went on to lead WVU in kills per set, including a career-best 31 kills in the win over Marshall. Her 3.74 kills per set and 4.14 points per set ranked third in the Big 12. Gotterba developed into a solid defensive leader on the floor, ranking sixth in the league with 3.56 digs per set. Montgomery, Gotterba and Shreve all earned Academic All-Big 12 First Team honors for the Mountaineers. Shreve, who completed her bachelor’s degree in three years, earned the Dr. Gerald Lage Academic Achievement Award from the league and was named a WVU Foundation Outstanding Senior for her work in the classroom. Sunahara brought more than 15 years of NCAA Division I experience and strong ties to USA Volleyball. In addition, he has coached five AVCA All-Americans, three AVCA Region Freshman of the Year honorees, three Conference Player of the Year selections, six Conference Freshman of the Year selections and 26 all-conference honorees. He joined the Mountaineers after spending the previous season as the head coach at Buffalo, accruing a 17-15 mark in his one season with the Bulls. Sunahara served as the top assistant for the U.S. National Team from March of 2013 to January of 2014, helping Team USA to a 25-6 record and a No. 2 world ranking at that time. He also served as the head coach for Team USA during its gold medal run at the 2012 Women’s Pan American Cup in Juarez, Mexico, and was a NORCECA instructor, guiding both the Jamaican National Team and U18 NORCECA Women’s Continental Championship teams to gold medals as well.

Prior to his time with USA Volleyball, Sunahara spent 11 seasons as the head coach at Cincinnati, where he led the Bearcats to eight NCAA Tournament appearances and recorded 20 or more wins every season. The Bearcats won the 2011 Big East Tournament, finishing with an overall record of 27-10 and a league mark of 12-2, while a trio of players garnered all-conference accolades. Cincinnati also was the 2009 and 2010 Big East regular season champions, with Stephanie Niemer garnering Big East Player of the Year and AVCA All-America honors both seasons. The Bearcats advanced to the NCAA Second Round in 2009, 2010 and 2011. The Bearcats won a share of the first-ever Big East regular-season crown in 2008, posting an impressive 14-0 home record. Sunahara guided the program to the NCAA Second Round for the second time in program history, with Jessie Nevitt earning her fourth All-Big East First-Team honors and her third All-America accolades. From 2000-07, Cincinnati posted double-digit conference wins on six occasions. Sunahara garnered Big East Coach of the Year accolades in 2008 and 2010, and was the 2001 C-USA Coach of the Year. Prior to joining the Big East, Cincinnati won the 2001 and 2003 C-USA Championships, qualifying for the NCAA Tournament both seasons and advancing to the NCAA Second Round in 2001. He departed as the winningest coach in UC history. Sunahara spent two seasons as an assistant coach with the Bearcats, helping them to the 1999 C-USA Tournament Championship. He served as the head coach for the University of Toledo from 1995-96 after serving as an assistant coach for the Rockets from 1993-94. Sunahara got his start in coaching as an assistant with the men’s team at UCLA, his alma mater, from 1990-93 after serving as a graduate assistant in 1987 and 1989. He helped the Bruins to national championships in 1987, 1989 and 1993. A voter in the AVCA Top-25 poll from 200211, Sunahara was the C-USA Volleyball President from 2002 to 2003 and was the Big East Volleyball President from 2006 to 2007. He also was a head coaches committee representative from 2006 to 2008 and served on the AVCA All-American Selection Committee in 2014. A native of Hilo, Hawaii, Sunahara was a two-time All-American and three-time NCAA Champion at UCLA alongside Olympians Ricci Luyties, Doug Partie, Dave Saunders and AVP legend and current U.S. Olympic Team coach Karch Kiraly before graduating with a degree in sociology in 1989. He won a pair of USVBA National Championships with Nike/ Molten in 1987 and 1990, and went on to play professionally for Cisneros Isla Verdes in the Canary Islands, Spain.

2018 SEASON

OUTLOOK

Guided by fourth-year coach Reed Sunahara, the 2018 West Virginia University volleyball program is fresh off a trip to the postseason for the first time in 26 years. With 10 letterwinners and two starters, the Mountaineer squad returns with nearly the same roster that got them there in the first place. WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW The 2018 campaign marks the program’s »»

44th season, as the squad looks to make its first-ever trip to the NCAA Tournament following a 2017 National Invitational Volleyball Championship (NIVC) semifinal appearance.

In Sunahara’s first three seasons, West »»

Virginia has steadily risen in the Big 12 Conference, ending the 2017 campaign in fifth place for WVU’s best finish since joining the league in 2012. West Virginia’s 21-13 record is only »»

the second time in program history the Mountaineers have won 20 or more matches since their move to big-time volleyball in the Big East in 1995. With 21 wins in 2017, Sunahara earned his highest win total as head coach of the Mountaineers.

West Virginia looks to continue in the »»

right direction, as the squad is led by junior captains Gabrielle Cuckovich and Erin Slinde.

WVU will play 15 home matches inside the »»

WVU Coliseum, including a pair of home tournaments – Aug. 24-25 and Sept. 14-15.

The Mountaineers will face seven teams »»

that made the NCAA Tournament last season, as well as three teams that played in the NIVC Tournament.

After welcoming Georgia Southern, Penn »»

and Wright State on Aug. 24-25 for the annual WVU Invitational in the first official weekend of play, the Mountaineers will travel to Provo, Utah, for the BYU Nike Invitational. West Virginia will go headto-head with three teams (BYU, Stanford and Wichita State) ranked in the American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA) Preseason Poll from Aug. 30-Sept. 1.

NATANIA LEVAK

STUDENT-ATHLETES TO WATCH NATANIA LEVAK – Levak, a junior right side hitter, brings the most experience to this year’s squad, as she played in 122 of 125 sets last season. She finished second on the team in total blocks with 75, averaging 0.61 blocks per set. She also ranked third on the team in kills with 270, averaging 2.21 kills per set in 2017. Levak is the top returner as the team leader in kills and blocks. ALEXA HASTING – Hasting came to Morgantown as a freshman defensive specialist last season, but slid into the libero position once senior Gianna Gotterba exited the Mountaineers’ opening weekend with a knee injury. Hasting stepped up in Gotterba’s absence, finishing her freshman campaign with a team-leading 325 digs, averaging 2.69 per set. She also was presented with the team’s Newcomer Award at the end-of-year banquet. KRISTINA JORDAN – Jordan, a freshman middle blocker, arrived in Morgantown in June and looks to earn herself a spot in this year’s starting lineup, as senior Mia Swanegan departed to play professionally in Finland a few weeks ago. Jordan hails from San Diego, California, and was a four-year letterwinner at Liberty Charter High, where she led her team to its first-ever CIF Division 5 Championship as a senior. She also was named the 2017 Summit League Athlete of the Year, as well as the 2017 MaxPreps Player of the Year.

KEY MATCHES SEPT. 19 VS. IOWA STATE The Mountaineers open Big 12 play when the Cyclones come to town for a 6 p.m. matchup on Wednesday, Sept. 19. West Virginia will look to defeat Iowa State for the first time in program history, as ISU is one of five teams WVU will face ranked inside the AVCA Preseason Poll this season. SEPT. 29 VS. TEXAS The Mountaineers play host to the Longhorns on Saturday, Sept. 29, at 1 p.m. The last time against Texas in Morgantown, West Virginia dropped a five-set heartbreaker to the No. 6-ranked team in the country. Despite claiming back-to-back sets to take a 2-1 match lead, the Mountaineers fell to the Longhorns in set scores of 25-27, 25-23, 25-21, 16-25 and 12-15. West Virginia also entered the Big 12 contest with a 10-match win streak, the team’s longest win streak since 2014. OCT. 3 AT KANSAS West Virginia heads to Lawrence, Kansas, on Oct. 3 to take on the Jayhawks at the Horejsi Family Athletics Center, in a 7:30 p.m. ET tilt. Kansas holds a special place in Mountaineer history, as West Virginia upset the No. 14-ranked Jayhawks in the team’s regular-season finale last season for its first-ever win over a top-25 team. Down 9-8 in the fifth set, West Virginia took a timeout to regroup. The Mountaineers went on a 3-0 run out of the stoppage to take an 11-9 lead. Kansas continued to put up a fight, though,

HEAD COACH REED SUNAHARA

capitalizing on a Mountaineer attacking error to tie the set at 12-all. However, three straight kills gave WVU the 15-12 fifth-set win and the 3-2 victory in the contest. NOV. 7 VS. MARSHALL The in-state rivalry resumes, as the Mountaineers welcome the Thundering Herd to the WVU Coliseum for a Wednesday night matchup on Nov. 7. The two teams last met in 2017, with West Virginia sweeping Marshall for the first time since 2010 to bring the Golden Ball Trophy back to Morgantown for the second straight year. It also was WVU’s first win in Huntington since 2000.

NOV. 17 VS. OKLAHOMA The Mountaineers play host to the Sooners on Saturday, Nov. 17, as the squad caps its home slate before swinging through Texas to close the regular season. Last season, West Virginia claimed a 3-1 triumph over Big 12 foe Oklahoma for the first time in program history. OU claimed the first set, but WVU stormed back to win the next three sets in front of 1,264 Mountaineer fans on Alumni Weekend, at the WVU Coliseum, on Oct. 13.

QUOTABLE - HEAD COACH

REED SUNAHARA

ON THE BEST WAY TO DESCRIBE THIS YEAR’S GROUP I think we have some talent on this team. They are all learning right now. We don’t really have the experience because our upperclassmen have only played here and there the last couple years. The one with the most experience is probably (right side hitter) Natania (Levak). She has played pretty much every match for us. We are getting better. We are better than day one, so I’m excited about this team. ON HIS GOALS FOR THE UPCOMING SEASON I want them to compete hard. If they compete hard and control their attitude and their effort, then we can do some good things. That’s what I’m looking for. I don’t think winning X number of games is what we are looking for. Obviously, we want to win, but our goal is to compete hard every day. We want to get one percent better every day. ON WHO HE IS TURNING TO IN TERMS OF LEADERSHIP AND WHAT THEY BRING TO THE FLOOR Gabrielle (Cuckovich) and Erin (Slinde) will be this year’s captains. They have very different personalities, but they complement each other well. Erin has more experience because she was our starting setter last year, but they work well together. Gabi gets the players’ attention really quick, and Slinde is more of a motherlike figure. It is a good mix.

2018 MOUNTAINEERS

ON FILLING THE ROLES OF GRADUATES GIANNA GOTTERBA AND MIA SWANEGAN It’s an opportunity for other people to step up. I like the girls that we brought in. I think we are just as talented as the people that left, but we lack the experience. We have to grow up fast, and we have to make sure that they are doing the right thing. ON WHO HIS KEY RETURNERS ARE AND HOW THE DEPTH OF THE TEAM HELPS WITH CONSISTENCY If Natania can be healthy, I think she can have a great year. She’s stepping up. She’s trying to lead the team. I had a conversation with Natania, and I told her just because she is not a captain doesn’t mean she can’t lead. She’s working hard and making the best of the situation. It’s her time to shine. (Junior outside hitter) Katelyn (Evans) is doing a nice job, too. All four juniors have been through the good times and the bad times. They don’t want it to be like before. They want to lead this group to where we haven’t been before. (Freshman middle blocker) Kristina (Jordan) is having a good camp as well. (Freshman outside hitter) Kristin (Lux), (freshman outside hitter) Macy (McElhaney) and (freshman defensive specialist) Keatan (Broughton) are having a good preseason, too. Hopefully, they can help us out down the road.

ON THE TEAM’S NONCONFERENCE SLATE Our nonconference matches are for us to figure out what we have and prepare us for conference. We have a tough schedule, and I’m looking forward to it. It’ll tell us exactly what we need to do early on and how we are going to compete in the conference. I like playing better teams early on because it makes you better. Everyone is getting better in the Big 12. It’s a tough conference. We had a nice run last year, but that was last year. We are focusing on this year. ON THE LITTLE THINGS THAT HE IS LOOK FOR EACH DAY IN TERMS OF GETTING ONE PERCENT BETTER I like kids who work hard. I look for kids who work hard and have good work ethic. They are good learners. If they are good learners, they are going to get one percent better. It’s the mindset. We want kids who are going to have the growth mindset. We don’t want them to have a fix mindset. They have been open minded during preseason camp for the most part, and they are willing to learn. ON THE TEAM’S EXCITEMENT WITH ADDING TO LAST SEASON’S SUCCESS AND MAKING HISTORY Hopefully, they can see that we have had success, and we want to build on that. We want to continue to get better. We want to keep working hard, and we want to keep going in the right direction.

HOW DOES A TEAM MOVE PAST A RECORD-SETTING YEAR?

If you are the West Virginia University volleyball team, you return to the court and continue to get one percent better. “The future is bright,” said third-year coach Reed Sunahara. “We have to keep doing what we are supposed to do. The coaching staff needs to keep doing what they are supposed to do. We have to keep recruiting. That is the name of the game. We have to train our kids hard, so that we can continue to get one percent better every day.” West Virginia put together a solid list of “firsts” this season, including upsetting No. 14 Kansas in its regular-season finale for its first-ever win over a top-25 team. Additionally, the Mountaineers collected 21 wins for the first time since 1991 and advanced to the postseason for the second time in program history. “I thought we made some good strides,” Sunahara added. “We got a lot better from the year before. We added some pieces to the puzzle. Overall, I was happy with the results. We can always get better, but for the most part, we made some good strides and had a pretty good season.”

HISTORIC SEASON ENDS IN NIVC SEMIFINALS

The Mountaineers (21-13, 6-10) saw their historic 2017 season end in the second-to-last match of the postseason, as the team dropped a three-set match to Ole Miss in an National Invitational Volleyball Championship Semifinal matchup at the Gillom Athletics Performance Center, in Oxford, Mississippi, on Dec. 9.

WVU’s run to the semifinals was unforgettable, as the team earned three straight sweeps in front of its home crowd at the WVU Coliseum. The Mountaineers finished the year with 21 wins for the first time since a 26-11 campaign in 1991, the only time before 2017 that the Mountaineers made the postseason. With 21 wins, Sunahara has earned his highest win total as head coach of the Mountaineers. “It was a learning experience for sure, because we haven’t been in it since 1991,” Sunahara said. “For us, it was a good situation. We got to play more and practice more as a team, and we needed that. We needed to gain that experience, so that in years to come, we can make the NCAA Tournament and understand what goes into it.”

WVU MAKES HISTORY IN THE BIG 12

The Mountaineers closed their 2017 regular season with a pair of Big 12 road wins, most notably upsetting No. 14 Kansas at the Horejsi Family Athletics Center, in Lawrence, Kansas, on Nov. 25. West Virginia claimed the five-set match in set scores of 20-25, 25-19, 20-25, 25-22 and 15-12 to capture its first-ever win over a top-25 opponent. Down 9-8 in the fifth set, West Virginia took a timeout to regroup. The Mountaineers went on a 3-0 run out of the stoppage to take an 11-9 lead over the Jayhawks. Kansas continued to put up a fight though, capitalizing on a Mountaineer attacking error to tie the set at 12-all. However, three straight kills from the Mountaineers gave WVU the 1512 fifth-set win and the 3-2 victory in the contest. WVU hit .240 with 62 kills and 7.5 team blocks in the victory. Of note, the Mountaineers finished their 2017 regular season winning three of their last four matches in Big 12 play.

“It’s tough to win on the road, so beating Kansas State and Kansas in the same week was a big accomplishment for us,” Sunahara noted. “It just shows you that on any given night, you can beat any team. That’s why we train hard. We try to get one percent better every day. All these things put together can result in something good for us.”

CHALLENGING SLATE

Each volleyball program in the Big 12 Conference continues to progress year after year, ultimately leaving the Mountaineers with one of the nation’s hardest schedules. The 2017 season was no different, as West Virginia played six teams ranked inside the AVCA Top-25 Poll. The Mountaineers faced nationally-ranked Texas, Kansas and Iowa State twice in league play in addition to nonconference matches against No. 6 Penn State and No. 2 Minnesota. Big 12 foe Baylor eventually entered the national rankings toward the end of the year, with eight of the Mountaineers’ 13 losses coming against the country’s top-25 teams.

WIN STREAK ENDS AT 10

With a win against rival TCU on Sept. 20, WVU tied the team’s longest win streak since 2014, notching 10 consecutive victories in the span of 18 days. A 3-0 sweep of Tennessee at the Diet Coke Classic (Sept. 1-2) in Minneapolis got things started for the Mountaineers. West Virginia then went 4-0 at the Holiday Inn Invitational (Sept. 8-9) held at Wright State and 3-0 at the Black Knights Invite (Sept. 15-16), hosted by Army, in West Point, New York. However, the streak was eventually snapped on Sept. 23, as the team suffered a heartbreaking 3-2 loss to No. 6 Texas inside the WVU Coliseum.

WVU CLAIMS THE GOLDEN BALL

The Mountaineers swept in-state foe Marshall on Sept. 12 to bring the Golden Ball Trophy back to Morgantown for the second time in two years. It marked WVU’s first sweep of the Thundering Herd since 2010, as the Mountaineers claimed their last win in five sets in 2015. It also was West Virginia’s first win in Huntington since 2000.

NOT UP IN HERE!

West Virginia finished the 2017 season with 274.5 blocks, including 40 solo, to average 2.20 blocks per set, ranking fourth in the conference behind Baylor (2.22), Iowa State (3.00) and Texas (3.12). Senior Mia Swanegan, a three-year starter at middle blocker, led the Mountaineers defensively, finishing third in league action with 1.23 blocks per set. The All-Big 12 Second Team honoree posted a teamhigh 150 blocks on the year, including 16 solo blocks. Sophomore Natania Levak ranked second on the team with 75 blocks.

ALL ABOUT THAT ACE

WVU also led the Big 12 in service aces throughout the course of the 2017 season, averaging 1.30 aces per set. The Mountaineers notched 163 service aces on the year, while holding their opponents to 134. Individually, sophomore Erin Slinde finished eighth in the conference with 0.22 aces per set. She recorded a total of 23 aces in 103 sets played.

SENIOR TRIBUTE

The Mountaineers honored their five seniors (defensive specialists Gianna Gotterba and Taylor Cross, outside hitter Morgan Montgomery, senior setter Emma Anderson and Swanegan) in their home finale against Baylor on Nov. 18. All five seniors added a piece to the puzzle, finishing their Mountaineer careers with nothing but memories. A four-year player and two-time team captain for the Mountaineers, Gotterba appeared in 105 matches and 383 career sets. A three-year starter at libero, she finished her career ranked fourth all-time with 1,362 career digs. She also is tied for fourth all-time with 3.56 digs per set. Montgomery, who also was a four-year player for the Mountaineers, played in 97 matches and 292 career sets. She also was named a 2017 team captain alongside Gotterba. Montgomery notched a total of 719 kills throughout her career at WVU, averaging a .158 efficiency.

VOLLEYBALL

Following her freshman campaign at TCU, Swanegan appeared in 92 matches and 330 career sets for the Mountaineers. A three-year starter at middle blocker, she ranks fifth all-time with an average of 1.12 blocks per set and 334 career block assists. She also ranks ninth in program history with 370 total blocks. Cross transferred to West Virginia in the summer of 2015 after spending one season with New Mexico. She has played in 61 matches and 171 career sets for the Mountaineers, averaging 1.50 digs per set. Anderson also came to Morgantown in 2017 after spending three seasons at South Alabama in the Sun Belt Conference. She played in 25 matches and 53 career sets for the Mountaineers, averaging 7.43 assists per set to rank eighth in program history. “First of all, Gianna and Morgan stayed when I arrived in 2015,” Sunahara said. “That was huge. Those two brought the experience and leadership that we needed. That was tremendous. My hats off to them. I can’t thank them enough for staying. Then with Mia, Taylor and Emma coming, that was huge. Emma was here for a year, but Mia and Taylor were here for three years. I thought the five of them had a major impact on turning this program around to respectability. They helped us grow and build a foundation. “Their work ethic is second-to-none. Their mindset was good as well. I would like to think that our younger players learned from them. They brought good energy. Hopefully, they will leave a legacy here, and we can build of that.”

PRESIDENT » WEST VIRGINIA UNIVERSITY E. GORDON GEE J.D., ED.D.

Dr. E. Gordon Gee is one of America’s most prominent higher education leaders, having served as president of some of the most prestigious public and private universities for more than three decades. When he returned to lead West Virginia University in 2014 as the institution’s 24th president, it was a homecoming of sorts. He was first named WVU president in 1981 at age 36 – at the time, among the youngest persons to ever serve as a university president. He led West Virginia University until 1985 when he went on to presidencies at the University of Colorado (1985-90), Brown University (1998-2000) and Vanderbilt University (2001-07). He served as president of The Ohio State University from 1990-97 and again from 2007-13. On his return to the Morgantown campus, he said, “This is not a job to me; it is a calling.” His leadership style bears that out as he works tirelessly to advance the University’s land-grant mission and open doors to the American dream. In one of his latest addresses to the University community, he noted that for 150 years, the institution has been a polar star guiding West Virginians toward a brighter tomorrow. He said, “That is why, in this milestone year, we recommit our University to living the values that drive our work. Serving our students and our state is not just our duty — it is our passion.” Gee has built a special relationship with the students as well as the state’s citizens, making it a point to visit students where they live, learn and socialize – and visiting all 55 West Virginia counties during his inaugural year – and at least half in subsequent years. 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.

DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS SHANE LYONS ASSOCIATE VICE-PRESIDENT

In his fourth year as the director of athletics at West Virginia University, Shane Lyons has a clear vision for his athletic program. It’s a vision that focuses on the betterment of more than 500 student-athletes and the day-to-day needs that will help them succeed in the classroom and in competition. His open lines of communications have made him a popular role model for WVU athletes, and his honest, fair and caring approach has energized an entire department. Whether it’s regularly scheduled meetings with the student-athletes or his open-door office policy, Lyons has his finger on the pulse of his student-athletes, coaches and staff. His endless energy is devoted to his facilities master plan that will keep West Virginia a strong Power 5 institution and position his department for growth and continued success. Lyons’ facilities master plan isn’t about keeping up with the Joneses, it’s about taking what his department has, improving it and making it complete for the student-athlete. From training, nutrition, medical and competitiveness, Lyons’ vision is for future success, building winning programs and enhancing the overall WVU student-athlete experience. Lyons is about results, and he has already left a great deal of accomplishments in his rear view mirror. He spearheaded and finished more than $100 million in fan enhancements to Milan Puskar Stadium and the WVU Coliseum, broke ground on a $45 million aquatic and track center in Morgantown, completed phase two of Coliseum renovations, bringing the arena up to current ADA seating code, and for the first-time ever, introduced a second video board to Milan Puskar Stadium to provide information and improve fan entertainment. Overseeing 18 varsity sports, a self-sustaining department budget of more than $93 million and 250 employees, Lyons’ leadership has also guided WVU to unparalleled success in the classroom as the department recorded an impressive overall 3.2 GPA in 2018. And, with the student-athlete in mind, he has implemented a Clinical and Sport Psychology unit with a full-time director and professional interns, added specialized learning assistants to the Student-Athlete Development unit and entered into a partnership with WVU Medicine’s Neuroscience Department to assist in the training and recovery of student-athletes, all emphasizing his overall commitment to the well-being and performance student-athletes. Ask him and he’ll tell you it’s not his department, but West Virginia’s department, and he can tell you his vision to improve it not only for the coming year, but for three, five, seven and 10 years down the road. He cares and the proof lies in what he has already accomplished in three years. Additionally, his work with WVU President E. Gordon Gee’s senior leadership team, as well as the Big 12 Conference and other national committees, has brought additional respect and positive exposure to his department and the University. He currently serves on the Big 12 Administration Committee, Finance and Budget Committee and the Game Management and Officiating Subcommittee. In 2018, he chaired the overall athletic directors committee for the Big 12, was named again to the NCAA Division I Council and will serve as chair of the NCAA Division I Football Oversite Committee. He is also on the board of directors for Mylan Park in Morgantown. Lyons came to West Virginia after spending three years as the deputy director of athletics and chief operating officer at Alabama where he worked closely on day-to-day strategic leadership and direction of the Crimson Tide Athletic program. During his time at Alabama, his responsibilities included oversight of a $120 million budget, management of the day-to-day operations of the department and oversight of the Crimson Tide’s 21 sports teams. In addition, he played a pivotal role in a historic renegotiation of Alabama’s multimedia rights agreement that started in 2014 and was involved in several significant capital projects totaling more than $85 million. The Crimson Tide won seven national titles in five different sports during his time there – two in football, two in men’s golf, one in women’s golf, one in gymnastics and one in softball. He also played a critical role in the hiring of four Alabama head coaches. Prior to joining the Alabama staff in November 2011, Lyons spent 10 years as an associate commissioner at the Atlantic Coast Conference. At the ACC, Lyons focused on conference-wide compliance and academic initiatives, providing direct assistance to the conference’s presidents, chancellors and athletics directors in matters dealing with NCAA regulatory matters. In addition, he served as the ACC’s human resource manager and was responsible for the administration, negotiation and mediation of the employee benefits program and managing the conference’s organizational policies and procedures. He was part of the senior administrative team for ACC events, including the football championship game, the men’s basketball tournament and men’s and women’s NCAA basketball events. Prior to working at the ACC, Lyons served as associate athletics director for compliance at Big 12 member Texas Tech from 1998 to 2001. During that time, Lyons assumed responsibility for the leadership, administration and implementation of a

comprehensive NCAA compliance program with emphasis toward rules education and extensive monitoring systems. He also served as oversight administrator for several of the Red Raiders’ athletic teams and had financial and operational supervision of the strength and conditioning, nutritional and sports medicine units. Before joining Texas Tech, Lyons worked at the NCAA for almost 10 years as a senior membership services representative, where he was responsible for the oversight and coordination of rules and interpretations for the 25 membership service representatives and was the staff liaison to various NCAA standing committees. Lyons began his career in college athletics in July 1988 as assistant commissioner of the Big South Conference. With the Big South, he was in charge of conference-wide compliance and championships. A native of Parkersburg, West Virginia, and a graduate of Parkersburg High, Lyons was a standout basketball player for the Big Reds. He earned bachelor’s and master’s degrees in sport management from WVU in 1987 and 1988, respectively. Lyons, the University’s 12th athletic director, and his wife, Emily, a graduate of the University of Wisconsin-Madison, have two children: Cameron and Brooke. Cameron is a member of Terry Bowden’s football team at Akron and Brooke plays volleyball at Morgantown High School.
