CONFERENCE

The Big 12 Conference celebrates its 25th year, as it continues to promote the strength and success of the nation’s premier athletic conferences under the direction of sixth-year commissioner Bob Bowlsby. The Big 12 Conference is comprised of 10 members – Baylor, Iowa State, Kansas, Kansas State, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, TCU, Texas, Texas Tech and West Virginia. Widely regarded as one of the top tennis conferences in the country, the league encompasses five states and nearly 38 million people. More than 4,200 student-athletes from across the United States and around the world compete annually in the sports sponsored by the conference. Five teams represented the Big 12 Conference at the 2017 NCAA Tennis Championships, and three of the five earned a spot within the top-16 seeds: No. 9 Texas, No. 14 Kansas and No. 15 Oklahoma State. Four teams advanced past the first round, including Kansas and Oklahoma State, who both reached this year’s Super Regionals. The 2021 Big 12 Women’s Tennis Tournament will be hosted by Baylor at the Hurd Tennis Center in Waco, Texas. The conference office is headquartered in Irving, Texas.

THE BIG 12 CONFERENCE IS ONE OF THE TOUGHEST CONFERENCES IN THE NATION, AND WE COMPETE AGAINST SOME OF THE TOP TEAMS IN COLLEGE TENNIS. IT’S EXCITING TO BE A PART OF THE BIG 12, BECAUSE WE ARE CHALLENGED AT THE HIGHEST LEVEL. IT IS NOT EASY TO COMPETE IN THE BIG 12, AND IT NEVER WILL BE. BUT IT SETS AN EXTREMELY HIGH BAR FOR US, AND THAT’S WHY WE ALL DECIDED TO COME TO WEST VIRGINIA UNIVERSITY – TO BE CHALLENGED AT THAT HIGHEST LEVEL, TO WORK AND BUILD TOWARDS THAT AND TO, ULTIMATELY, SEE HOW FAR WE CAN PUSH THIS PROGRAM. – MIHA LISAC

IN THE

SPOTLIGHT

Choosing to become a Mountaineer is special. Without a professional sports team in the state, the 1.8 million people throughout the region love West Virginia University athletics. No school helps its student-athletes more than the people at WVU. Mountaineers have the unique opportunity to represent themselves, their teammates and their university to news, media, alumni, friends, family and the general public. If you take advantage of these opportunities, it can have a positive effect, not only on your career as a studentathlete at West Virginia, but also on your life after you have donned the Old Gold and Blue.

WEST VIRGINIA IS A SPECIAL PLACE, UNLIKE ANY OTHER. I FEEL EXTREMELY PRIVILEGED TO BE IN THE POSITION THAT I AM IN. I AM ABLE TO HELP THESE YOUNG LADIES MATURE AND PREPARE FOR LIFE AFTER TENNIS. I WANT TO BUILD SOMETHING SPECIAL TOGETHER, AND WE HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO DO THAT HERE AT WVU. – MIHA LISAC

IN THE

COMMUNITY

Representing West Virginia University, the city of Morgantown and the state of West Virginia in a charitable manner is important to the WVU women’s tennis team. The Mountaineers are constantly involved in community service activities throughout the state. The team has a continuing relationship with Habitat for Humanity, the WVU Children’s Hospital and the United States Tennis Association (USTA), which makes the team aware of any volunteer openings in the area. The women’s tennis team also hosts youth camps and clinics throughout the year in order to involve the community with the program. Each year, the Mountaineer tennis team also hosts the Martha Thorn Invitational and conducts a charitable giving initiative to benefit local outreaches and causes in the Morgantown community. Becoming successful and positive role models on and off the court are important to the WVU women’s tennis team. The Mountaineers give back to Morgantown and its surrounding communities every chance they get.

COMMUNITY SERVICE IS ONE OF THE MOST CRUCIAL THINGS THAT WE DO. THIS IS A VERY SMALL, TIGHT-KNIT COMMUNITY. COMMUNITY SERVICE FOR US IS A PART OF GIVING BACK TO THE COMMUNITY THAT SUPPORTS US SO WELL. NOT JUST US AS THE TENNIS TEAM BUT THE ATHLETIC DEPARTMENT OVERALL. IT IS VERY, VERY IMPORTANT THAT WE CONTINUE TO STAY CONNECTED TO THE COMMUNITY AND THAT WE CONTINUE TO SHOW OUR APPRECIATION. – MIHA LISAC

ALWAYS A MOUNTAINEER

In 2014, former West Virginia University women’s tennis player Jo Marie (Cinco) Bohn was inducted into the 24th annual WVU Sports Hall of Fame at the Caperton Indoor Practice Facility. “It was so unexpected. As I look back on the previous inductees and their past collegiate accomplishments, I was completely shocked that I was inducted into the WVU Sports Hall of Fame,” Bohn said. A former standout for the women’s tennis team, Bohn put together a career record of 214-73 from 1988 to 1992 under former coach Martha Thorn. Bohn received her degree in sports management from WVU in 1992, and 22 years later she continues to remain at the top of the record book.

me chills to hear “The Pride of West Virginia” play at games today. I truly can say that I miss it all,” Bohn said. As the assistant coach for the women’s tennis team at the University of Charleston from 2012-14, Bohn encouraged her players to live in the moment and to not take the game they love for granted. “As a college athlete you only get four years to play, so why not give it your all and leave with no regrets,” Bohn said. “Then hopefully down the road you can look back and be proud of your contribution to your University.”

Bohn resides in Charleston with husband, Pete Bohn, and their two children, Jada and Xavier. She is currently a tennis instructor at the local YMCA and the Charleston Tennis Club. The 2014 class also included Michael Anti (rifle), Chris Enochs (baseball), George King (men’s basketball), Mike Krak (golf), Gene Lathey (football), Mike Logan (football) and Lester Rowe (men’s basketball). The class brought the number of total inductees to 156.

The 1989 Atlantic 10 Conference Freshman of the Year, Bohn finished her career as the 1992 Atlantic 10 Senior of the Year and remains the only player in WVU history to win more than 60 matches in one season and have two 30-win seasons in singles matches. Bohn also was honored with a spot on the Atlantic 10 AllTournament Team in her final season as a Mountaineer. “This honor means a lot to me. I come from a small women’s sport at a large University,” Bohn said, a native of Charleston, West Virginia. “I also come from a small high school, Charleston Catholic High, so to receive the highest collegiate athletic award one can acquire is an amazing feeling.” Although, the highlight of her college years were not the accolades she received year after year, but simply donning the Old Gold and Blue. “I enjoyed the team, traveling and even the band practicing as we practiced on the courts. It still gives JO MARIE (CINCO) BOHN

LISAC

» HEAD COACH » 8TH SEASON » VELENJE, SLOVENIA Miha Lisac enters his eighth season as the head coach of the West Virginia University tennis program. The 2009 Colonial Athletic Association (CAA) Coach of the Year, Lisac previously spent six seasons as head coach at Georgia State, where he built one of the top Division I programs in the nation. Lisac is a former student-athlete at Georgia State and served as the men’s assistant coach for two years. In 2007, Lisac was named head coach of the women’s tennis team at his alma mater. While at Georgia State, Lisac led the women’s tennis program to one conference title, back-to-back CAA Championship final appearances and two other berths in the CAA Championship semifinals. His overall record as a head coach stands at 108-139. The highlight of his tenure came in 2009 when he guided Georgia State to the first NCAA Championship appearance in school history and was named CAA Coach of the Year.

AT WEST VIRGINIA In his seventh season with the Mountaineers, Lisac led the team to a 7-3 mark and the first winning season since 2010, when WVU finished the year with a record of 17-7. West Virginia began the season with a pair of sweeps before rattling off five more wins to begin the season 7-0. It marked the best start to a season since 1986, when WVU began the year 12-0. Following a rocky start to Big 12 Conference play, Lisac and the Mountaineers saw their season cut short in March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Seven Mountaineers were named to Academic All-Big 12 teams in 2019, including five student-athletes who were named to the Academic All-Big 12 First Team, the most in the Big 12 conference. Abigail Rosiello capped the season by being named to the CoSIDA Google Cloud Academic All-District and All-America Teams, West Virginia’s second selection in as many years. West Virginia wrapped up the 2018 season with a 7-14 overall record while competing against at least eight teams ranked in the top 50 of the ITA/Oracle team rankings for the second consecutive year. The highlight of the campaign came with a 4-1 win over Iowa State, WVU’s first Big 12 conference win in program history. The win solidified the program’s growth under Lisac’s watch and marked another milestone in his goal to become consistent Big 12 contenders. In addition to leading WVU past in-state rival Marshall for the second straight year, West Virginia also saw four Mountaineers post at least 20 wins in singles and doubles play during the year. Paula Goetz capped the season by being named to the CoSIDA Google Cloud Academic All-District and All-America Teams, the Mountaineers’ first selection in program history. WVU concluded the 2017 campaign with a 4-16 overall record, facing eight opponents that were ranked in the top 50. Lisac led the Mountaineers to a win over Marshall, ending the Thundering Herd’s four-match winning streak in the series.

Lisac and the Mountaineers finished the 2019 season with a record of 10-12, the best mark WVU had achieved since 2010 (17-7). WVU competed against six ranked opponents in 2019, including four in the top 25 nationally, and swept four opponents. West Virginia’s four sweeps were the most since 2008, when WVU finished the season with eight.

The season also saw two Mountaineers, Christina Jordan and Habiba Shaker, head to the ITA All-American Championships for the first time under Lisac. In the spring, Shaker led the team in singles play with a record of 8-5 at the No. 1 position, while Paula Goetz paced the Mountaineers in doubles with a 9-7 record.

Led by two 30-win seasons from Anne-Sophie Courteau and Anastasiia Bovolskaia, six Mountaineers finished with 15 or more wins, five finished with 20 or more wins and three finished with 25 or more wins.

West Virginia capped its 2016 season with a 6-15 overall record, competing against seven opponents ranked in the nation’s top 50 throughout the spring season. Lisac guided the Mountaineers to a No. 75 Intercollegiate

Tennis Association (ITA) national ranking for what was believed to be the first time in program history. In that same week, West Virginia edged Cornell in a 4-3 battle for the first time since 1995 to tie the all-time series record at two apiece on Feb. 27, 2016. West Virginia concluded its 2015 campaign with a 9-13 overall record. The Mountaineers recorded nine straight wins for the first time since 2010 and earned the program’s 450th win at Toledo on Jan. 31. In the spring season, WVU competed against nine ranked opponents, with its last five competitors ranked in the nation’s Top 40. Hailey Barrett earned her first victory over a ranked opponent in 2015, defeating Baylor’s then-ranked No. 82 Rachael Jakes-Baker in straight sets. Carolina Lewis was the first player since 2003 to tally 20 singles wins in a season, ending her freshman campaign with a 24-6 singles record. Habiba Shaker also held a team-best mark in doubles play (12-5) as she teamed up with Lyn Yuen Choo, Yvon Martinez, Barrett and Lewis throughout the spring season. In his first season at West Virginia, Lisac led the freshmen tandem of Kaja Mrgole and Oana Manole to a No. 9 ranking by the Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA) in the Atlantic Region entering the spring season. The WVU duo finished the fall season at 5-8 and battled their way to the quarterfinals at the USTA/ITA Regional in Charlottesville, Virginia. Vivian Tsui tallied three straight wins at the USTA/ITA Regionals and made it further in the main singles draw bracket than any other Mountaineer, after surviving the qualifying bracket. In the spring season, freshmen Oana Manole and Kaja Mrgole led the team with a combined 24 wins in singles and doubles. Mrgole posted a team-high 13 wins in the spring.

AT GEORGIA STATE Lisac’s final season with Georgia State was a benchmark year for the program, as Abigail Tere-Apisah became the school’s firstever tennis All-American, after advancing to the Round of 16 at the NCAA Singles Championship. Tere-Apisah also took home CAA Player of the Year and Most Outstanding Performer honors. Whitney Byrd and Maryna Kozachenko became just the second pair in Lisac’s tenure to earn All-CAA First Team Doubles honors. The team advanced to its second straight CAA finals and earned its highest ITA Ranking in school history (No. 38 on Feb. 25, 2012). The team finished the season ranked in the ITA National Team Rankings for a third consecutive year, after defeating three nationally ranked opponents.

JANE LITTLE MEMORIAL AWARD

This award, a silver bowl donated by the West Virginia University Foundation, is given each year to a member on the women’s tennis team who best exemplifies the qualities of sportsmanship and team spirit. Jane Little, a Charleston, West Virginia, native, was a member of the first women’s intercollegiate team to compete for WVU. Jane was not the best tennis player on the team, but she displayed the best sportsmanship and was the most dedicated. When she died in October, 1977, her teammates from the 1973-74 team established this award in her memory.

SHANE LYONS In his sixth year as the director of athletics at West Virginia University, Shane Lyons’ vison for the athletics program is crystal clear. It’s a vision that focuses on the betterment of more than 500 student-athletes and the dayto-day needs that will help them succeed in the classroom and in competition, and it is working. His open lines of communications have made him a popular role model for WVU athletes and coaches. His honest, fair and caring approach has led to success on and off the field. 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 success has brought national exposure to West Virginia as Lyons’ presence is wanted on many national and prestigious committees. He chairs the all-important Football Oversight Committee and is also a member of the NCAA Council. Additionally, Lyons serves on the NCAA Working Group on Transfers, the Football Competition Committee and the NCAA Wrestling Academics Enhancement Working Group. His work with WVU President E. Gordon Gee’s senior leadership team and the Big 12 Conference has brought additional respect and positive exposure to his department and the University. He served on the Big 12 Administration Committee, Finance and Budget Committee and the Game Management and Officiating Subcommittee, while chairing the Big 12 athletic directors committee in 2018. In the office, he devotes endless energy to his Climbing Higher facilities master plan that will keep West Virginia a strong Power 5 institution and position his department for growth and continued success. His Climbing Higher 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. It’s an aggressive, $100 million fundraising campaign centered on one of his core values - enhancing the student-athlete experience. The campaign is already making a difference with a complete renovation of football’s Milan Puskar Center and the future emergence of an Olympic Sports Performance Center. And, coming in 2021, Lyons will lead the celebration of the 50th birthday of the WVU Coliseum and oversee the installation of 14,000 new seats, a new videoboard, lighting and sound system for the venerable structure. From training, nutrition, medical and competitiveness, Lyons’ vision is for sustained future success, building winning programs and growing WVU’s strong reputation across the country. He is about results, and he has already left a great deal of accomplishments in his rear-view mirror. In 2019, Lyons commissioned and announced an economic impact study that showed Mountaineer Athletics produced more than $300 million to the state’s economy and more than $78 million to the local economy. And with the local economy in mind, Lyons’s proudly saw the formal opening of a new $45 million aquatic and track facility that will not only benefit WVU, but also local schools and the entire community. The Mountaineers proudly hosted the 2020 Big 12 swimming and diving championships in that beautiful facility. Additionally, in the last two years, Lyons’ department has hosted the NCAA rifle national championships, the Big 12 golf championship and an NCAA baseball regional.
