2009 MEDIA GUIDE

7WUSPORTS.COM

For the first time since the 2003 season the Lady Blues do not have a returning All-American on the roster. Three-time All-American outside hitter Monica Miesner has graduated and leaves some big shoes to fill. That, however, doesn’t change the expec-tations for a program that has qualified for the NCAA tournament five straight seasons and six out of the last seven. “I don’t think you can replace Monica, she did so many things so well. If she didn’t have it offensively on a given night she’d block a ball or vice versa, she always found a way to contribute,” said eighth-year head coach Chris Herron. “To get to the NCAA tournament and make a long run you have to have All-Americans. The question for us is who is going to step up and be that All-American and contribute at that level.”

One of the players that the Lady Blues will look to is junior all-region outside hit-ter Ashley Shepard. The most experienced returner at outside hitter, Shepard was sec-ond on the team in 2008 with 298 kills and averaged 2.95 kills per set. Junior Caitlin Conley looks to improve on her sophomore season when she was fourth on the squad in kills. According to Herron, Conley has all the tools to be a very good player for the Lady Blues. Sophomore Courtney Wallman earned valuable time down the stretch of her fresh-man season as did Jennifer Kolarik and both will look to build on that solid founda-tion as they begin their second season with the Lady Blues. Herron brought in some talented high

school players in Hillary Hughes and Jessica Kopp to challenge the returners for playing time. Both players were first team high school All-Americans and Kopp was awarded the Evelyn Gates award, which is given annually to the top high school vol-leyball player in the Kansas City area.

Sophomore Mollie Lacy is the top returning middle hitter for Washburn after earning all-MIAA accolades as a freshman. She was third on the team last season with 289 kills and averaged 2.7 per set. Junior Kelci Wigger and sophomore Jessica Wade also return at the middle hitter position and each brings a different skill set to the table. Herron thinks Wigger may be the Lady Blues’ best blocker, while Wade is the most athletic player in the group. Freshmen Jessica Fey and McKayla Gowen come to Washburn after successful high school careers and will push for playing time.

Sophomore Breanna Lewis returns at rightside hitter. At 6’5” she is a real presence and Herron looks for more improvement out of Lewis after a solid spring season. Junior Ali Ward also returns after play-ing most of last season in a backup role. She has a wide array of shots in her offensive arsenal with tremendous touch. According to Herron, she has a good grasp on what Washburn is trying to do.

The Lady Blues return two capable set-ters from last year and have added another outstanding setter to the mix. Senior Kate Hampson and sophomore Amanda Guess return after solid 2008 campaigns. Hampson recorded 1,248 assists

last season to move into first place on Washburn’s all-time assists list with 4,448. She earned third team all-MIAA honors after being named an All-American in 2007. Guess had a solid freshman season split-ting time at setter and defensive specialist. According to Herron, Guess has a good intensity and focus about her. Freshman Abby Wittman is another solid addition who will be a great setter for the Lady Blues in the future, but will more than likely redshirt in 2009.

Molly Smith returns to anchor the libero position. The junior-to-be led the team with 534 digs in 2008 and earned honorable mention all-MIAA honors. Freshmen Tessa Brophy and Sami McHenry join the Lady Blues after solid high school careers. Brophy should chal-lenge for time right away, while McHenry will redshirt this season. The schedule is once again loaded with tough games, including the always tough MIAA slate. The Lady Blues open the season at the Colorado School of Mines Oredigger Classic. Washburn will also travel to Denton, Texas and to the Rockhurst Fall Classic. WU will once again host the Lady Blues Fall Classic on October 2-3. “Anytime you set up a non-conference schedule you hope it will prepare you for the MIAA. All of the teams we’ll play in the non-con are high caliber teams, there are no guaranteed wins at any of those tourna-ments,” Herron added, “The MIAA will be tough again. We had five teams finish in the top 15 the last two years. If the fifth place team in your conference is finishing 15th in the nation that’s pretty tough.”

Chris Herron led the Lady Blues to their second straight 30-win season and their fifth straight NCAA tournament appearance in 2008. After his first seven years the Lady Blues have won their first two conference titles, won two MIAA Western division titles and went to their first six NCAA tour-naments. Herron has garnered three MIAA coach of the year awards and has seen his players claim All-America honors nine times and all-region status 26 times. After leading Washburn to the national semifinal, the school’s highest-ever national finish, and a No. 3 ranking in the final poll in 2007, Herron was named the American Volleyball Coaches Association South Central Region coach of the year. Washburn had a .389 winning percentage as an NCAA-II team before Herron started in 2002. Since then he has turned that around with an .829 winning percentage. He has built the team into the second winningest MIAA program since 2002 and he has turned a team that had just three winning seasons in the last 15 years before he got here to one that has become a dominant force in the region and nation. The Willard, Mo., native is 214-44 (.829) in his seven years at Washburn and 289-73 (.798) in 10 years as a college coach, working three seasons at Benedictine before coming to Washburn. The Lady Blues finished 38-4 in 2007 with a national semifinal finish. They went 12-1 in the MIAA to win the regu-lar season championship and won the NCAA South Central Region as a No. 2 seed. They were given the right to host the final three rounds of the NCAA tournament and defeated No. 1 Tampa in the quarterfinal after falling behind 2-0 in front of a school-record 2,231 fans. The following night they fell to No. 15 Western Washington 3-1 to end the season. In 2006 he led Washburn to an MIAA West Division championship and the Lady Blues earned the No. 2 seed in the NCAA South Central Region tournament. They fell in the first round and ended the season 27-9 with a No. 23 ranking. In 2005 Herron coached WU to 35 wins, a school-record .921 winning percentage and a conference championship with a 15-1 MIAA mark, earning coach of the year honors. Washburn made its third trip to the NCAA tournament and Monica Miesner and Tessa Jones became the second and third WU players to be named All-Americans. In his first season, Herron took the Washburn program to new heights winning its first MIAA championship and mak-ing its first appearance in the NCAA tournament with a 29-5 record as he gained his first MIAA coach of the year award. The Lady Blues entered the AVCA national poll for the first time in school history during the 2002 season. Herron was named head coach of the Washburn volleyball team March 25, 2002. He spent the previous three seasons as the head coach of Benedictine College, where he compiled a 75-29 record. After going 13-15 in his first year in 1999, Herron guided the Ravens to their first-ever Heart of America

Athletic Conference title and the squad’s highest win total ever with a 30-8 record in 2000. He led the Ravens to a 32-6 record in 2001 and garnered HAAC coach of the year honors for the second straight season. The squad also won its first-ever HAAC conference tournament championship in 2001. Benedictine also cracked the national top 25 poll for the first time in school history, by finishing 23rd in the final NAIA ranking. Herron spent 13 years prior to going to Benedictine as the head coach at Tonganoxie High School. During that time Herron’s teams posted an overall record of 366-88. He began his coaching career at Golden City High School in Golden City, Mo., where he posted a 21-17 record in two seasons from 1984-85.

Schmidt was a graduate assistant coach during the 2006 season. Schmidt played at Washburn from 2002-04 and earned All-America honors her final two years. She totaled 1,491 kills, the fifth most in school history and she’s ninth in career digs with 1,316. She’s one of seven Lady Blues to ever reach 1,000 kills and 1,000 digs in her career.

28 WUSPORTS.COM

Coming off a season in which they won a school-record 38 games, advanced to the national semifinals and finished the sea-son ranked No. 3 in the country, the 2008 Lady Blues volleyball team had high expectations. Washburn started the season ranked second in the coun-try, the highest ranking ever for the Lady Blues, and got off to a strong start with a 12-match winning streak and wins in 26 of the first 28 matches. The Lady Blues went undefeated at the Colorado State-Pueblo Fall Classic, Missouri-St. Louis Invita-tional, Dowling College Invitational and their own Lady Blues Fall Classic. With the addition of an 11th team in 2008, the MIAA went to a 20-game conference schedule without divisions. The Lady Blues rode that format to a 15-5 conference mark, includ-ing a perfect home record, and a tie for third place in the MIAA. Washburn recorded wins over eight teams that qualified for the NCAA-II tournament in 2008, including 3-0 sweeps in seven of those eight victories. The Lady Blues entered the NCAA-II South Central Re-gion tournament, their fifth straight appearance and sixth over-all, as the No. 3 seed and ranked 10th in the country. Washburn squared off with sixth-seeded Central Missouri for the third time after splitting the first two matches of the season. The Lady Blues fell to UCM 3-0 and ended their season at 30-6 and ranked No. 13 in the country. It marked the first time Washburn had been ranked outside the top 10 since the end of the 2006 season. Senior outside hitter Monica Miesner led the team with

346 kills and 3.01 kills per set. Miesner finished her career as one of only two players in school history in the top five in career digs, kills and points. She finished second in career digs (1,857), third in kills (1,575) and points (1,823). She also became the sec-ond Lady Blue, after former teammate Tessa Jones, to be named a three-time All-American. Miesner was a first team selection by the American Volleyball Coaches Association. She was also named to the AVCA All-Region team, Daktronics All-Region and the All-MIAA first team. Junior setter Kate Hampson recorded 1,248 assists in 2008 to become Washburn’s career leader with 4,448 after just three years in a Lady Blues’ uniform. Her career mark of 11.89 assists per set ranks second all-time. She was named third team All-MIAA. Sophomore outside hitter Ashley Shepard was second on the team with 298 kills and 2.95 kills per set. She was named honorable mention all-region by the AVCA and third-team All-MIAA. Freshman middle hitter Mollie Lacy was a third-team All-MIAA selection after finishing third on the team with 289 kills. Senior Stephanie Nitz and sophomore Molly Smith were named honorable mention All-MIAA. Nitz finished her career eighth all-time in attack percentage (.275), ninth in blocks per set (1.02) and seven blocks shy of cracking the top 10 in total blocks with 357. Smith led Washburn with 534 digs and currently sits in 10th place all-time averaging 3.19 digs per set.

The Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association, an 11-member conference of NCAA Division II institutions in Missouri, Nebraska and Kansas, was first organized in 1912 as the Missouri Intercollegiate Athletic Association.

Over the past 20 years, the league has undergone several changes, highlighted by increased participation in national championships.

The MIAA has gained the reputation of being one of the top NCAA Division II conferences in the nation. MIAA student-athletes have won 13 national team championships and more than 100 individual national titles.

The MIAA currently conducts conference championships in eight men’s and nine women’s sports. Men’s championships include football, cross country, basketball, indoor and outdoor track and field, baseball, tennis, and golf. Women’s champions are determined in volleyball, soccer, cross country, golf, basketball, indoor and outdoor track and field, softball and tennis.

MIAA Commissioner Jim Johnson succeeded Ralph McFillen on July 1, 2007. Johnson spent two seasons as athletic director at Texas A&M-Commerce before becoming the MIAA’s third full-time commissioner.

Johnson spent nearly two years (2003-05) at what is now the University of Central Missouri as associate athletics director for development. While in Warrensburg, he also served as the institution’s government relations director. Like his predecessor, Johnson has experience in the NCAA national office. He was in membership services from 1997-02, working as membership coordinator and Division II governance liaison.

McFillen, formerly of the Metro and Gulf South conferences, succeeded Ken B. Jones as commissioner of the MIAA in July 1997. Natasha Oakes, a former all-MIAA track performer at Emporia State University, was added as a full-time staffer in July 2005 as assistant to the com-missioner for compliance. Larry House joined the MIAA in the summer of 2007 as the assistant commissioner for championships and business development. He assists with the marketing of the conference and its events, as well as aid in the league’s external affairs. Kellen Coleman joined the MIAA as Director of Communications in July 2009.

The History of Washburn Volleyball While the recent success of the Washburn volley-ball team may overshadow its beginnings, there were still many successes early in the Lady Blues’ history. Credited with kick-starting Washburn women’s athletics, Janet Nuzman fielded the first competitive vol-leyball team in Lady Blues’ history in 1969. The results were typical of a fledgling team as the 11 women fin-ished with a 3-9 record, but those ladies helped pave the way for what would become a very successful program. As women’s athletics were growing and defining themselves throughout the 1960s and 1970s, Nuzman had to move the team between six different national and regional affiliations during the first 10 years and it wasn’t until 1980 that Nuzman had scholarship money to give out. The Lady Blues won their first championship by winning the 1978 KAIAW Small College state playoffs. They repeated that feat in 1981 and Nuzman finished her coaching career after that year with a 143-208 overall record. They moved to the Central States Intercollegiate Conference in 1976 and played in their first NAIA tour-nament in 1984 under coach Linda Moley. In 1985 they set a school record with 45 wins that still stands today and in 1986 they won the NAIA District 10 champion-ship. The team joined NCAA Division II and the Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Conference in 1989 and struggled with the tougher competition. In 1997 the team had its first winning season as a Division II school. In 2002 Chris Herron took over as head coach and he led the Lady Blues to an MIAA title and their first trip to the NCAA tournament in his first season. During Herron’s tenure he has won two conference champion-ships with six trips to the NCAA tournament. Here’s a look at the Lady Blues’ success leading up to their first MIAA titles and NCAA tournament appearances:

1969 Coach Janet Nuzman fielded the first Lady Blues volleyball team. The team, made up of 10 women from Kansas and one from Iran, finished the year 3-9.

Washburn competed in the Association of Kansas Women’s Intercollegiate Sports (AKWIS) the first two years along with Kansas State, Kansas, Kansas State Teacher’s College (Emporia State), Fort Hays State and Mt. St. Scholastica.

1971 The Lady Blues switched to the newly-formed Eastern Kansas State Intercollegiate Volleyball League (EKSIVL) with Benedictine, Kansas, Kansas State Teacher’s College and Kansas State.

1972 Washburn once again switched affiliations and played in the Kansas Association of Intercollegiate Athletics for Women (KAIAW). Benedictine, Fort Hays State, Marymount, Ottawa, Newman and Pittsburg State also played in the league.

1976 Still belonging to the KAIAW, Washburn now joined the Central States Intercollegiate Conference (CSIC) and remained in it until jumping to NCAA II and the Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association in 1990. Kearney State (Nebraska-Kearney), Pittsburg State, Missouri Western State, Emporia State, Missouri Southern State, Wayne State (Neb.) and Fort Hays State were also CSIC members. During their first year in the conference, Carol Williams was named to the all-CSIC second team and Tina Martin and Mary Vaughn earned honorable mention.

1978 Washburn finished first in the KAIAW Small College Playoffs and went on to a fifth-place finish in the AIAW Region 6 tournament. WU was 23-19 overall and finished fifth in the CSIC at 7-7. Carol Williams earned her second straight all-CSIC first team award.

1980 The first volleyball scholarships were awarded and Nuzman had $1,500 dollars to divide between the 15 players on her squad.

1981 Despite finishing the year 12-32 with a 1-13 CSIC record, the Lady Blues once again won the KAIAW Small College State Playoffs and advanced to the AIAW Region 6 tournament.

1984 Now under the direction of coach Linda Moley, who started in 1982, this Lady Blues team posted the best winning percentage to date at .711 (42-17). Sharon Lord and Sally Tracy were both named first-team all-district while Lord was further honored as second-team all-CSIC.

1985 The Lady Blues set a school record for wins in a season with 45. That record still stands today. Tami Dall sweeps first-team honors at the district and con-ference level. Vicki Jarnagin repeats as both first-team all-district and second-team all-conference.

1986 Now playing in the NAIA, the Lady Blues won their first-ever NAIA District 10 championship as Linda Moley was named district coach of the year. Washburn finished 42-25 after losing a bi-district championship match to Southern Nazarene. Marilee Baumchen and Vicki Jarnagin were both named first-team all-district while Baumchen was further honored as first-team all-CSIC. Jarnagin was a second-team all-CSIC pick. The 42 wins tied for second most wins in a season.

1988 With second-year coach Kelly Stauffer-Osburn, Washburn plays host to the 20-team NAIA national volleyball tournament in Lee Arena.

1990 Washburn enters its first MIAA postseason tournament as the fifth-seeded team. Shanna Haslett becomes the first Washburn player named first-team all-MIAA while Susan Waller is a second-team pick. 1993 The Lady Blues proved to be one of the best defensive teams in not only the MIAA, but also NCAA Division II. Washburn led the MIAA in digs per set (21.53) while also finishing first in that category in NCAA Division II national stats compiled by the American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA).

1997 First year head coach Allison Jones led the Lady Blues to a second straight winning season and the high-est ever finish in the MIAA (fourth).

Dani McHenry became the first AVCA All-American in Washburn history when she earned honorable mention honors in 2003. The next year she was named a third-team selec-tion. McHenry played three years at

Washburn after transferring from Kansas. During her tenure she had 1,491 kills to put her fifth all-time at WU. McHenry married former WU baseball player Jesse Schmidt in 2006 and returned to Washburn as a full-time as-sistant coach in 2008. While at Washburn she helped lead the Lady Blues to their first NCAA tournament appearance in 2002. To go with her All-America honors, McHenry also earned first-team all-region rec-ognition twice and three first-team all-MIAA honors.

McHenry’s numbers were consistently strong during her three years with the Lady Blues. She had at least 20 double-dou-bles every year and after having 23 double-figure kill matches her first year she had over 30 each of her last two years. She also had close to 30 double-figure dig matches every year at WU. Her 558 kills her junior year is the fourth highest season total in Washburn history. She also is second all-time in career kills per set with 4.01. McHenry also played basketball under her father, head coach Ron McHenry, for four years. When she ended that career in 2005-06, she helped the Lady Blues to a national champion-ship and four MIAA titles. McHenry earned her bachelor’s degree in business at Washburn in the fall of 2005 and a master’s from Kansas in 2008.

Tessa Jones joined Monica Miesner as the second and third All-Ameri-cans in Lady Blues history when they earned the honor in 2005. Jones re-peated in 2006 and then in 2007 she

became the school’s first AVCA first team All-American. She also joined Kate Hampson as the school’s first Daktronics All-Americans. Jones finished her career fourth in school history with 1,511 kills and first during the rally scoring era. She also holds the top single-season mark at Washburn with 657 kills and 4.47 per set in 2007, her final year. Jones tied the school record in the NCAA national quar-terfinal with 30 kills against No. 1 Tampa as the Lady Blues

won 3-1 in front of a school-record crowd. She is also third at WU with a .286 career attack per-centage and third with 1,777.0 points in her career. In the final match of her career she recorded 21 kills to give her 87 double-figure kill matches. That total put her one match ahead of fellow All-American Dani McHenry for first place in school history. On top of her four All-America awards, Jones was a three-time all-MIAA player and she was named conference MVP her final season. Jones came to Washburn in 2005 after one season at Kansas.

Washburn University was established in February 1865 as Lincoln College by a charter issued by the State of Kansas and the General Association of Congregational Ministers and Churches of Kansas. A two-story brick building on the north-

east corner of 10th and Jackson Streets was soon erected and the first classes began in January 1866. In 1868, the school was renamed Washburn College, in recognition of a $25,000 donation by Ichabod Washburn, a church deacon and

resident of Worcester, Mass. The university was granted a permanent location in 1865 when Topekan Col. John Ritchie donated a

160-acre site, which at the time was a considerable distance southwest of the city. Construction on the first building began in 1872, with occupancy taking place in 1874. For the next two decades, college President

Peter MacVicar conducted an aggressive development campaign. His efforts resulted in the establishment of numerous Victorian limestone structures which characterized the campus for the next 90 years.

Expansion of the school was constant. The School of Law was organized in 1903, as was a School of Fine Arts and a medical school, which educated physicians until 1913. During the next three decades

structures such as the Mulvane Art Museum, Benton Hall and Whiting Field House were added to the campus. In June 1966, a tornado struck Topeka and several historic buildings on campus were demolished. The Washburn community rallied and financial support from friends and alumni

made possible the rebuilding of many school facilities during the coming years. Today, university facilities offer more than one million square feet of modern academic and support space.

In 1941, the citizens of Topeka endorsed Washburn by voting to establish a municipal university, support-ed in part by the city and governed by a local board of regents. In 1952, the Washburn Board of Regents

officially changed the name of the school to Washburn University of Topeka. In 1999, the university’s primary funding was moved from city property tax to county sales tax sources, with the school retaining status as a municipal subdivision of the state. In addition to local financial support, Washburn has re-ceived state funds since 1961, which have been coordinated by the Kansas Board of Regents since 1991.

Washburn is governed by its own nine member Board of Regents.

31 MIAA titles and countingWashburn made the jump to NCAA Division II and the Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association in the early 1990s and experienced immediate success. Since then that success has continued to sustain and grow as Washburn’s athletic teams have won 31 conference championships and one national champion in women’s basketball in 2005. Only one other MIAA team has more MIAA titles since WU became eligible for conference championships in 1990-91.

Lee Arena has served as home to the Lady Blues since 1984 and in the last seven years is has provided them with a very strong home court advantage. Washburn is 154-94 all-time at home for a .621 winning percentage and in the last seven years the Lady Blues have gone 90-12 (.882).

The arena, which is also home to men’s and women’s basketball, has a capacity of 4,179, twice that of Whiting Fieldhouse, which served as the home court prior to 1984. During most home matches only the east chairback seats are used, giv-ing the arena a capacity of about 1,000. The Lady Blues finished second in NCAA Division II in total

attendance in 2006 with 9,195 fans in 16 matches. Their average of 575 fans a match was the sixth highest.

Lee Arena served as host to the Lady Blues’ first NCAA postseason appear-ance as they played in the South Central Region tournament in 2002. In 2007 Washburn went on the road to win the South Central Region and then was granted the right to host the NCAA National Championship. In the quarterfinal the Lady Blues set a school record with 2,231 fans as they beat No. 1 Tampa. Over 2,000 fans showed up the following night in the semifinal.

On July 6, 1999, Lee Arena was fitted with a new court design. The previous design was the original found on the court when Lee Arena opened for a basketball game on Nov. 17, 1984. The new court, which was designed by sports information director Gene Cassell, features major changes, including a filled-in 3-point circle and an enlarged Washburn “W” in the center of the court.

The arena was built as part of the $8.4 million Kelsey H. and Edna B. Petro Allied Health Center, the largest building on campus covering more than 126,000 square feet. Lee Arena is named after former Washburn baseball coach and player Bob Lee and his wife, Sallee, to recognize their $250,000 donation.

Beginning in 2008, the Ichabod baseball team played their games on a Field Turf infield and remodeled dugouts, bullpens and batting cages. Plans for future upgrades include a new scoreboard, sound system and outfield fence. The press box has space for up to 15 media outlets. Capacity for Falley Field is listed at 800.

Washburn Softball ComplexThe Washburn Softball Complex has two fields with the east field having dimensions of 200 to the foul poles and 220 to center field.

WeIGHT ROOMThe newly completed Capitol Federal Savings

Student Athlete Strength and Conditioning Center has nearly 12,000 square feet of space for Washburn athletes to work out. Ichabod Power is based on using free weights and the feet in contact with the floor, using triple extension of the ankle, knee and hip. This type of training is used to develop athletes stability in the joints and trunk, and power in the lower body when in contact with the playing surface. Each multi-rack and Olympic platform allows the Washburn athlete to perform Olympic Lifts on a solid oak surface.

The multi-racks are self-contained with all the weight on the rack. This allows the Washburn athlete to perform 90 to 95 percent of their work in one area. The racks and platforms have special features that allow the student-athlete to perform secondary exer-cises with special attachments. The installation of new equipment transformed Washburn’s weight room into a top-notch facility.

BASKeTBALL/VOLLeYBALL COURTOn the second level of the Whiting Fieldhouse

addition is a court which can house two basketball or volleyball courts or a full size court for each sport for practice. The lighting mounts across the top of the building are also high enough a volleyball tournament could be played on the main court.

A viewing area surrounds the practice facility above the court level with enough room for extra workout areas for athletic teams.

TRAINING ROOMThe Washburn Athletic Training Center is one of the most

advanced in the Midwest. The facility is nearly triple the size of the one it replaced.

Steve Ice, Washburn’s Head Athletic Trainer, has been with the Ichabods and Lady Blues athletic programs for more than 25 years. He has a student staff of more than 20. Dr. Iris Gonzalez, the campus physician, is the team’s resident doctor. Dr. Matthew Bohm of the Cotton O’Neil Clinic comes to campus every Wednesday to evaluate student-athletes and to educate athletic trainers. St. Francis Sports Medicine pro-vides injury rehabilitation, education and sports enhance-ment techniques to athletes of all ages and competitive levels. St. Francis and Washburn University established a new partnership in 2005 to provide additional support for their injured athletes. Michael Ramirez, Certified Athletic Trainer for St. Francis, teaches class in the morning and visits the campus every afternoon working with Washburn athletes to get them back on the court or field. Zach Frank will also assist in training room treatments.
