V E T E R A N L E A D E R S H I P

Memphis will return eight players who hold the distinction of starting more than 10 games in 2007. Included are the Tigers’ six seniors; Michael Coburn, Sean Goulding, Tripp Harkins, Thomas Hyland, Jordan Lynn and Robert Sausaman. Among them, Coburn is the lone player remaining from Memphis’ 2004 Conference USA championship team. Coburn, a senior defender from Dundalk, Ireland, was a freshman on the 2004 team, starting all but one game for the Tigers. 2008 will be his fi fth year donning a Memphis Tiger uniform. Coburn redshirted in 2006 due to an ankle injury.

T I G E R S O N T H E T U B E

Tiger fans will be able to watch the Memphis men’s soccer team on national television on two occasions dur-ing the 2008 season. The fi rst opportunity will come on October 5, when the Tigers take on the SMU Mustangs at Mike Rose Stadium. The game will be broadcast on CBS College Sports. The Tigers lost last season’s match, 1-0, to the then No. 2 Mustangs. If you miss the Tigers’ match-up with the Mustangs, you can catch them for a second time on CBS College Sports when they take on the defending C-USA champion Tulsa Golden Hurricane on October 26 at Mike Rose Stadium. This is only the second and third times, respectively, the U of M will play in front of a television audience. The last time was on Nov. 14, 2004, in the 2004 Conference USA Championship in Lou-isville, Ky. against the UAB Blazers in a 3-2 comeback victory. The win gave Mem-phis its second ever trip to the NCAA Tournament.

C O A C H I N G A D D I T I O N

In 2008, the Tigers welcome a new full-time assistant coach to the staff with the addition of former Davis and Elkins College women’s soccer head coach Mat Santoro. Santoro brings with him a wealth of experience at the collegiate level. On top of coaching the Davis and Elkins women’s team for four seasons, Santoro spent the four previous seasons at his alma-mater, Rowan Uni-versity, where he was the primary recruiter for the Profs. “Mat brings great experience as a player and a coach,” said head coach Richie Grant. “ I really believe that he is going to be able to develop great relationships with each of the players. Mat knows what it is like to be in charge, and I think that is going to be mutually benefi cial for the coach-ing staff and the players.”

P O L L P O S I T I O N

Richie Grant has led the Tigers to Top-25 rank-ings in each of his last four seasons. Last year the Tigers reached the No. 25 spot in the Soccer America poll released on Oct. 15. Memphis slipped into the polls after defeating Kentucky, 3-1. In 2008, the U of M looks to bring the streak to fi ve years in a row of being recognized as a Top-25 team. Since 2004, the Tigers have been ranked as high as No. 10 in the polls.

R A N K E D R I V A L S

Memphis will take on some stout competition during the 2008 season. The Tigers will face-off with four oppo-nents who fi nished the sea-son in the NSCAA Top-25 rankings including; No. 9 Creighton, No. 10 Bradley, No. 18 SMU and No. 20 Tulsa. The combined 2007 record of Memphis’ 2008 opponents is 161-145-52.

Senior midfi elder Tripp Harkins

Memphis beat UAB, 3-2, in a dramatic second half comeback to win the 2004 C-USA Championship. The game also marked the team’s fi rst televised game.

Bradley Jacobs Fr. Cody McCoy Fr. Thomas Shannon Fr. The Tigers are stacked in the middle as they have many players who can transition from midfi eld to defender at any time. Seniors will occupy the middle this coming season, and they have a fresh group of newcomers who will also be vying for a spot.

TIGERS AT A GLANCETIGERS AT A GLANCEF O R W A R D S

Memphis returns an experienced group to the fold at the forward spot, returning two players—one junior and one sophomore—who saw extensive playing time in 2007. Ryan Ruble, a sophomore, joined the Tigers in 2007 as a defender, but was asked to make the transition to forward. The Lee’s Summit, Mo., native, answered the call for the Tigers, making an immediate impact on the Memphis front line. Ruble tied for fi rst on the team in goals scored with six, and led the team in shooting percentage on the sea-son. His impressive performance earned him the attention of the conference elite, as they elected Ruble to the 2007 Conference USA All-Freshman team. Joining Ruble up front will be Brian Farrell. The junior from

Dunboyne, Ireland, saw considerable playing time last season, seeing action in all 19 Tiger games, while starting 12. Farrell

connected on two goals on the sea-son and dished out four assists.

Adding his services to the front line will be incoming freshman Parker Duncan, a native of Johnson City, Tenn.

The only loss to the forward spot comes in the form of the graduation of walk-on-turned-captain, Jared Britcher. Britcher was a key cog in Memphis’ starting line-up for the last three seasons.

M I D F I E L D E R S

The Tigers return a core of impact players from last year at the midfi eld position. Three seniors; Sean Goulding, Tripp Harkins and Jordan Lynn, look to step into leadership roles for the Tigers in 2008. Goulding, a third team All-Conference USA selection, was the team’s assist leader on the 2007 season with six. Har-kins looks to bring his attacking mind-set to the midfi eld spot, while perhaps also seeing time at the forward position. Lynn contributed three goals and two assists last season. Adding depth to the midfi eld will be Eric Trujillo and J.R. Romero. Trujillo saw action in four Tiger matches last season, while Romero appeared in 15 games for Memphis, contribut-ing one assist on the season. Joining the Tigers in 2008 will be six incom-ing midfi elders; Jason Brooks, Dale Calvert, Elias Groft, Bradley Jacobs, Cody McCoy and Thomas Shannon. Brooks, Calvert and Shan-non are coming in as players who can handle both the midfi elder and defender positions. Groft, Jacobs and McCoy will be able to pro-vide added depth to an already deep position group. The Tigers lose two impact players from last year in Adam Montgomery and Kevin Walsh. Walsh tied Ryan Ruble for the team’s leading goal scorer.

DEFENDERS The Tigers return four players with loads of experience patrolling the backfi eld in Rick Alleman, Michael Coburn, Thomas Hyland and Robert Sausaman. The group has played a total of 210 matches in their Tiger careers. In 2007, they held opponents to a conference low goals-against average of 0.89. “This team’s strength will be its defense,” said head coach Richie Grant. “We have tremendous experience in our back four. They have played a lot of games together and understand their importance with so many attack-minded players. It

is important that our defenders are solid.” Coburn scored two goals and three assists in his fourth year

with the program. Due to his outstanding play throughout the season, he was awarded with NSCAA All-Midwest second

team and C-USA All-Conference second team honors. Coburn is the lone holdover from Grant’s 2004 Confer-ence USA championship team. Adding depth to the backfi eld will be transfer students Mark Weldon and Rory O’Connor. Weldon got a head start on his Memphis career, as he participated during spring practice. A transfer from Appa-

lachian State, Weldon started 12 of 19 games for the Mountaineers last season. O’Connor is a trans-plant from NAIA-affi liated Lambuth University. The Dublin, Ireland native, helped lead the Eagles to the 2007 Tran-South conference title, while also garnering fi rst team All-Tran-South honors. Also adding their talents to the Tigers in 2008 will be fi ve freshmen; Jason Brooks, Dale Calvert, Dalton Healy, Chris Porter and Thomas Shannon.

Senior midfi elder Sean Goulding

Junior goalkeeper Michael Goodlett

G O A L K E E P E R S

Goalie Michael Goodlett looks to build on a positive spring performance when the Tigers take the fi eld this fall. The junior saw action in four games last season, allowing one goal, while making fi ve saves. Goodlett split time with Tyler Strom in goal in 2006, allowing 18 goals in 12 games. “We talked about the importance of our back four, but we really only go as far as our goalie allows us this season,” Richie Grant said. “The last time we won a championship we had the best goalkeeper in the league; Michael has that potential. He played a lot as a freshman, played back-up last year and had a good spring. We will be looking for Michael to lead the way at that position. He’s going to have some great competition from a couple of young players.” Backing up Goodlett will be three incoming players, Harrison Cheatham, Cody Gibson and Jordan Leedle. Cheatham, a transfer from Young Harris College in Georgia, joined the team for the spring practice. The junior was named all-region as both a freshman and a sophomore.

In 2007, Grant reached 89 wins and moved his Memphis career winning percentage up to .569, which ranks him as the winningest coach in school history. Grant led the Tigers to 10-wins for the third consecutive season, fi n-ishing with an overall record of 10-5-4 in 2007. Many of Grant’s players had honors bestowed upon them last season. The Tigers’ four NSCAA All-Midwest team honorees were the most in Memphis soccer history. On top of earn-ing all-region honors, fi ve Tiger players were named to the All-C-USA team, including Ryan Ruble, who became the seventh freshman of Grant’s career to be named to the C-USA All-Freshman team. Off of the soccer fi eld, Grant’s players stayed active in the classroom as they received numerous academic awards, including Jared Britcher who was named to the ESPN The Magazine/CoSIDA Academic All-America third team for the second time in his career. Grant has been named C-USA Coach of the Year twice in his career and led his 2004 team to a conference title and its fi rst NCAA appearance since 1993. Ever since 2004, Grant’s team has been in the Top 25 at least once during the season and has been ranked as high as No. 10 nationally. Since his arrival at Memphis in 1999, Grant has failed to reach the .500 mark only twice. Immediately following the 2004 conference championship, proof of the team’s overall strength was solidifi ed in the form of a nationally-ranked of-fense, Grant’s fourth in seven years. The 2005 Tigers led C-USA and were third in the nation in goals-per-game (2.56) and were second in C-USA in goals (46), assists (43) and points (135). Two forwards from the 2005 squad were drafted by Major League Soccer (MLS) franchises. The 2004 campaign also marked a new era of defensive dominance for Memphis soccer. The defensive unit set school records for goals allowed and goals-against average (0.70), which was ninth-best in the country. The following

season, goalkeeper Tyler Strom led C-USA with a .815 save percentage. The 2006 campaign showed the same kind of promise. The Tigers opened the season with eight wins in their fi rst 10 matches and reached a No. 15 rank-ing in the National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) poll. Prior to his arrival at Memphis, Grant led the turn around for the Lambuth University soccer program in Jackson, Tenn. In his four years at Lambuth, he led the Eagles to consecutive Mid-South Conference titles and an NAIA Region XI championship while posting a 53-29-2 record. In his 13 years as a head coach, Grant has amassed 142 wins and a .593 winning percentage. In his nine years at Memphis, he is 89-66-12. As a player, Grant was a three-time NAIA All-American defender and was twice named the NAIA District V Player of the Year at Green Mountain College in Poultney, Vt., where he received his bachelor’s degree in leisure resources and facilities management in 1993. Grant went on to play for the Minnesota Thunder, a semi-pro team that competes in the A-League. After one season with the Thunder, Grant took a coaching position at Bloomsburg University in Pennsylvania and earned his master’s degree in communication studies while working as an assistant coach from 1993-95. Grant earned his NSCAA Advanced National Diploma in 1997 and his NSCAA Premier Diploma in 2002. He served as the head coach of Tennes-see’s Under-23 Olympic Development Team in 2001. He is currently in his seventh year at the helm of the Tennessee U-17 ODP squad. Grant served as the head coach of the U-17 Super Clubs national all-star team, which toured England in the summer of 2001 for a week of matches against top interna-tional competition. Grant is married to Memphis assistant women’s soccer coach Jodi Grant and has four siblings. His parents, Richie and Annette, live in Dublin, Ireland.

Richie Grant enters his 10th season as the head coach of the Memphis men’s soccer program in 2008. During his tenure as head coach, Grant has led the Tigers to a NCAA Championship berth, as well as a C-USA title, while being honored as C-USA Coach of the Year on two occasions.

Nick Glaser begins his second season as a coach with the University of Memphis soccer program after graduating from Memphis in 2001. Glaser is responsible for the midfi elders. “This is a real exciting season for Nick because he was instrumental in putting the recruting class together,” said head coach Richie Grant. “We really benefi ted from his involvement with the program. I am really pleased with the contribution that he continues to make and I think he has had a big infl uence on our program improving in the past couple of years.” Glaser, a standout on Tiger soccer teams from 1997-2000, rejoined the team prior to 2007 after spending the 2005 and 2006 seasons as an assistant coach for Atlantic 10 power University of Dayton. From 2003-2004, Glaser served as an assistant at Cumberland Uni-versity, where he worked with the Bulldogs’ men’s and women’s teams be-fore leaving the NAIA school to join the Flyers. Glaser got a head start on his coaching career by working the club team ranks. The Hendersonville, Tenn., native served as head coach of the Hendersonville Fever ‘93 team from 2001-2004 as well as the Henderson-ville Fever ‘91 squad from 2002-2003. After graduating from Memphis, Glaser continued his playing career with the Nashville Metros of the A-League and helped the club to the 2001 A-League playoffs, the club’s fi rst postseason appearance since 1998. After one season in Nashville, Glaser spent the 2002 and 2003 A-League seasons with the Cincinnati Riverhawks, leading the club in min-utes played in 2003. While at Memphis, Glaser earned Conference USA All-Freshman Team. During that season he helped the Tigers to a 10-8-2 record by play-ing in 20 games (18 starts) and recording fi ve goals (including two game winners) and fi ve assists during his freshman season. “As a former player here, Nick knows the expectations of the program as an athlete,” Grant said. “He knows the standards of the conference, and he’s played professionally, so he brings a wealth of experience to our players.” Glaser graduated from Memphis in 2001 after earning a degree in marketing and totaled 35 points (11 goals, 12 assists) in 73 games in a Tiger uniform.

Remco de Jong enters his fourth season with the University of Mem-phis men’s soccer team as the volunteer goalkeeping coach. De Jong has helped the U of M goalkeepers become some of the best in the league. Under de Jong, former U of M keeper Tyler Strom had the lowest goals against average in the conference in 2007 with 0.92 and had the third best save percentage with .791. Strom’s 1.17 career GAA also ranks second all-time at Memphis. “Remco is a product of one of the best programs in the world, so he brings a great deal of expertise to that position,” said head coach Richie Grant. “He’s very committed to improving our young keepers. De Jong has been responsible for goalkeeper Michael Goodlett’s de-velopment during his time at the U of M. The Memphis men’s soccer team has high expectations of Goodlett following a solid spring. Head coach Richie Grant credits de Jong for helping Goodlett make progress toward becoming one of the top goalkeepers in the C-USA. In addition to Good-lett, de Jong will be working with three incoming goalkeepers in 2008. A native of Amsterdam, de Jong started playing soccer at Ajax in the Netherlands when he was 10-years-old. As a goalkeeper with Ajax, he played with John van het Schip, Stanly Menzo, and Marco van Basten, who coached the Dutch National team to a Round of 16 appearance at the 2006 World Cup. De Jong’s U-18 team, coached by three-time European Cup champi-on Johan Cruyff, won the Netherlands National Championship in 1981-82. His Ajax 3 team also won the national championship in 1985-86 and was a regional champion from 1985-88. In Holland, he coached the amateur club RKAVIC from 1996-2000 and is currently in his sixth year of coaching goalkeepers for the West Tennessee Futbol Club Dragons. De Jong is married to Angela de Jong-Angelici, the executive produc-er of the Fox 13 morning show in Memphis. The couple lives in Memphis with their two children, Alyssa and Luca.

The 2008 spring season saw the Mem-phis men’s soccer team play contests against two Major League Soccer (MLS) teams, as well as two locals teams in Rhodes College and Lambuth University.

The Tigers fi nished the spring with a mark of 2-2, defeating Rhodes, 1-0, and up-ending Lambuth, 4-0.

“I think we had a really productive spring,” said head coach Richie Grant. “It was advantageous that we had such a small squad this spring. It allowed every-one on the roster to see the fi eld and to get more experience. The schedule we played really helped in preparing our lads for the demands of the upcoming season.”

Top Notch Competitors For the fi fth year the Tiger’s spring schedule included teams from the profes-sional ranks. On Feb. 16, the Tigers visited Pizza Hut Park in Frisco, Texas, to take on FC Dallas. The Tigers were defeated in the contest, 2-0. This year’s match marked the fourth time in fi ve years that the Tigers com-peted against FC Dallas during the spring season. Memphis visited its second MLS opponent on April 13, when they visited the Kansas City Wizards, losing 5-0. It was the second time that Memphis has matched up with the Wizards.

“We’re real pleased to have had both MLS matches,” Grant said. It’s a fantastic opportunity for our players to play against professionals and a great way to keep spring training exciting.”

Transitioning Positions The spring saw some position changes in the works. Sophomore Ryan Ruble, who came to Memphis as a defender was called on to play forward during the 2007 season, which continued during the spring.

“With Ryan learning a new position, it is vital that we get him more time at the for-ward position,” Grant said. The spring pro-vided us with that opportunity.”

The Tigers also experimented some with senior Tripp Harkins at forward.

Next Man In

This fall Memphis will be looking to re-place senior goalkeeper Tyler Strom, who was lost to graduation. The front runner to fi ll the void looks to be Michael Goodlett, a junior from Bolton, Miss.

“It was vital that we got Michael four games of starting experience this spring,” Grant said. “We are hoping to reap the ben-efi ts of Michael’s growth this spring during the fall season.”

The Memphis men’s soccer team continued its tradition of putting a solid product on the fi eld in 2007. The Tigers played toe-to-toe with some of the nation’s top men’s soccer programs, facing off with three ranked opponents; No. 2 SMU, No. 10 Creighton and No. 14 Tulsa. Memphis’ performance against fi erce competition proved benefi cial, as it helped them break into the Top 25 for the fourth season in a row. “For the last four years, we have been ranked,” said Memphis head coach Richie Grant. “Since 2004, we have consistently at some stage in the season been in the top 25 in one of the major polls. I think that it is a testament to our strength of schedule that we play and the fact that we are getting some national recognition is always good for the program.” “I think it is a credit to the players that have gone through the last four years that, as you graduate classes all the time, there is some consistency in the level of performance in the program.” The Tigers opened Grant’s ninth season in charge of the program by sweeping both of their opponents to win their third Memphis Diadora Tournament. First up in the tournament was the Tigers’ former C-USA rival Louisville. The Tigers and Cardinals played a scoreless match until the end of the fi rst half, when transfer Rory Dowd took a free kick from Sean Goulding and turned it in for a Memphis goal. The goal would prove to be the deciding score, meaning a 1-0 victory for the Tigers. Memphis would follow suit on Sunday, defeating Evansville, 2-1. After back-to-back home wins against Louisville and Evansville, the Tigers went on the road to California, where it faced Cal State Fullerton and Cal State Northridge. Memphis returned with a tie and its fi rst loss of the season. Following their trip to the west coast, the Tigers

returned to take on their fi rst C-USA foe, forcing a 1-1 tie with UCF. Memphis continued its winning ways over the next three matches, defeating IPFW, Mercer and Centenary. In the match against IPFW, the Memphis goals came like clockwork. Striking fi rst for the Tigers was Brian Farrell, scoring from six yards out seven minutes into the match. The Tigers would go on to score four more goals in the game, defeating the Mastadons, 5-0, for the second shutout of the year. With three consecutive wins under their belt,

the Tigers set forth to take on two ranked competitors in the 14th-ranked Tulsa Golden Hurricane and No. 10 Creighton Bluejays. Tulsa played Memphis into two overtime periods after knotting the score at 3-3 on a Todd Goddard goal in the 85th minute. The two teams went goalless in overtime, leaving the fi nal result as a 3-3 tie. The Tigers dropped the following match to Creighton, but bounced back defeating the Kentucky Wildcats for their fi rst C-USA win of the season, propelling Memphis into the Soccer America polls at No. 25. The Tigers next time out they marched to their second C-USA win against Marshall on a Thomas Hyland header in the 78th minute. Possessing a No. 25 rank, Memphis welcomed a dangerous South Carolina team to Mike Rose. In a defensive-laden game, no goals were scored

The Tigers are no strangers to tough schedules and in 2007 that is exactly what they faced. They competed against high quality

opponents, rose to every occasion and found themselves in a familiar place in the Top 25.

until the 57th minute when USC took the lead, 1-0. The Tigers tied the match 1-1, forcing two overtime periods. Memphis had an unsuccessful last second shot off the foot of Jared Britcher with 44 seconds remaining. The overtime periods would remain scoreless, thus cementing the game in a 1-1 tie. The Tigers followed a hard-fought performance against USC with a 3-0 rout of Central Arkansas. Memphis’ hardest test was ahead of them, as they went into Dallas to take on the No. 2 SMU Mustangs. In a low-scoring game, the Mustangs scored the lone goal in the 34th minute to clinch the win. The Tigers ended the regular season with two wins and one loss, defeating Alabama A&M and Florida International, but losing its contest with the UAB Blazers. Memphis entered the C-USA Championships seeded No. 5. The Tigers’ season came to an end with a 2-1 overtime loss to South Carolina in the

semifi nals of the Conference USA Tournament. The loss came 20 seconds into the overtime period when South Carolina scored on a penalty kick to advance to the next round. “I’m hoping that the loss will serve as a bit of motivation for next year,” Grant said. “It was a great game against South Carolina. As usual, our games with them are very very tight. I thought we were playing very well. Unfortunately, it came down to extra time. We had no complaints. It’s not an easy way to go out in the tournament, but with a lot of our guys coming back, hopefully the experience will have helped them.” The Tigers fi nished the season with a 10-5-4 record and a fi fth place fi nish in the Conference USA standings, improving on the year before when they fi nished in seventh.

C L A S S O F 2 0 0 7 The U of M said farewell to four seniors who had distinguished careers with the Tigers. Adam Montgomery, Kevin Walsh, Tyler Strom and Jared Britcher all ended their time with the Tigers in 2007, but left the U of M with many accolades to go around. As a group, the senior class earned 20-plus awards during its time here. “It is always diffi cult to lose your senior class, but it is something that you get used to,” Grant said. I always enjoy a good group of senior players. They have a great impact on the team. Their leadership makes way for the young to step out. I expect the leadership next year to be just as strong.” The senior class combined for 12 goals (two game-winners), seven assists, and 4,203 minutes in 2007.

P L A Y I N G L I K E A V E T E R A N Freshman Ryan Ruble earned a Conference USA All-Freshman Team nod during his rookie campaign. The Lee’s Summit, Mo., native entered the Tigers’ line-up and fi nished his fi rst season tied as the team’s leading scorer with six goals. Ruble also racked up two assists and three game winners. Ruble is the seventh freshman to earn the honor under Grant’s guidance. “Ryan was a bit of a lifesaver for us last year,” Grant said. “He came in as a defender. I had recruited him as a back. He came in and played center forward for us and just got better and better for us in that position. He scored very important

goals for us throughout the season. I’m excited about what he will bring to the coming season.”

A L L - T I M E A T T E N D A N C E The Tigers set record-breaking attendance marks in 2007 as they posted three new attendance highs, including a packed house of 927 fans against Kentucky at the Mike Rose Soccer Complex. Memphis was victorious with a 3-1 win over the Wildcats. The Tigers’ second-largest crowd came in the double header season opener. The women’s team played fi rst at 5:30 p.m. against Arkansas-Little Rock, and the men’s team followed with a match against Louisville at 7:30 p.m. The teams brought in a crowd of 879 fans to watch both soccer teams in action. “Our marketing staff has done a great job in getting fans to come out to watch the games,” Grant said. “I think the atmosphere has really improved. Our schedule has also improved, and we are looking to build on that this year with an even better schedule and nationally televised games.”

N O G O A L S A L L O W E D Once again Memphis has been able to defend the net like no other. For the fourth-straight year, Memphis posted at least four shutouts in the regular season. The Tigers goalkeepers’ seven shutouts earn the distinction of being Memphis’ second-highest shutout total since 2004 when the Tigers had nine shutouts in the regular season.

S C O R I N G I N T H E C L A S S R O O M The Memphis Tigers know how to score on the fi eld and in the classroom. Receiving the highest award for the Tigers was senior forward Jared Britcher. For his academic excellence, he was named to the ESPN The Magazine/CoSIDA Academic All-America third team. With a grade-point average of 3.64, Britcher graduated with a degree in exercise and sports science. The University of Memphis men’s soccer program earned the National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) College Team Academic Award for the 2006-07 academic year. The Memphis men’s team earned the award for the fi rst time in the program’s history, posting a 3.12 team grade-point average.

The Memphis women’s soccer team will be returning 21 of 28 letterwinners, including eight of 11 starters and some key reserves. Although the majority of the 2008 squad is underclassmen, the entire team has a skill level no age limit can defi ne. The youth outnumber the veterans 21 to eight, but everyone will be vying for a starting po-sition.

“We feel like we have raised the bar this past season and have set high goals for the fall,” Monaghan said. “The team is looking to repeat as conference champions and make it to the NCAAs and advance further. Last year set a new standard and we want to continue with the evolu-tion of the program.”

F O R W A R D SIf there is any player on your team that you

want leading the attack, Kylie Hayes is the one. She holds the Memphis career record in goals (37), and also was the leading goal scorer last year with 11. She will undoubtedly fi nish her

Memphis career as the leading goal scorer and needs just seven more points to lead that cat-egory also.

Sophomores Melissa Smith, Ashley Berra and Krista Turner proved the freshmen could hang with the veterans, as all three had an unbeliev-able fi rst season.

Smith will be rehabbing a knee injury sus-tained three-fourths of the way through the 2007 season that kept her out of postseason play. Be-fore her injury, Smith started every game for the Lady Tigers and had accumulated fi ve goals and four assists.

Berra was named the Conference USA Cham-pionship Offensive MVP, having scored three goals over the championship, including the semi-fi nal gamewinner over UTEP.

Turner improved on her game as the season went on and soon began to see herself as one of Memphis’ dominate forwards. She tallied three goals and six assists in her freshman campaign.

Memphis will lose just one forward in Harumi Someya, who was the third-leading scorer for the Lady Tigers. Someya was a tremendous help off the bench as Memphis had a rotation that worked well and skyrocketed them to the top of Confer-ence USA.

Memphis brings in one forward in Julia Igna-cio, who hails from Alberta, Canada. Look for her to enter the rotation and make an immediate impact.

M I D F I E L D E R SMemphis’ midfi eld game has never been as

strong as it was in 2007. The duo of Emiko Schwab and Vendula Strnadova introduced opponents to a midfi eld that would not budge. Strnadova started the season off as a forward but was quickly moved to the midfi eld position where she was unstoppa-ble. Between the two, they racked up numerous awards throughout the season from Conference USA, Soccer Buzz and NSCAA. Together they combined for 13 goals and 7 assists. Look for the duo to team up again in the fall and claim the mid-fi eld as their own. Strnadova was voted the team’s Newcomer of the Year and Schwab was named the Most Valuable Player.

The Lady Tigers will introduce three new mid-fi elders to the rotation as Tara Telford, Lizzy Si-monin and Elizabeth Hildebrandt join the team. All three are center midfi elders who are very versatile.

D E F E N D E R SSenior Kate Murphy will take on the defensive

leadership role in her last campaign. She started all 22 matches for the Lady Tigers last season and was a key fi gure in holding opponents to a goals against average of 0.84 and under eight shots per game.

Murphy will be assisted in the backfi eld by sophomore Kelsey Bakker, who was named the Conference USA Championship Defensive MVP and named to the Soccer Buzz National Team of the Week.

Striving to Repeat...Striving to Repeat...

The Lady Tigers will compete against four NCAA Tourna-ment teams in the 2008 season. A look at the NCAA teams with their 2007 record.

The reigning Conference USA Champions are not satisfied with just one bite, so in 2008 the Memphis women’s soccer team looks to repeat and advance to another NCAA Tournament. Behind Head Coach Brooks Monaghan and his

staff, the Lady Tigers will be on the prowl come this fall and hope to go deeper in the NCAA Tournament this year. With nine newcomers, Monaghan hopes they will have another record-breaking season.

The backfi eld has lost two starters in Caroline Barrett and Halley Jo Sullivan, but has brought in three freshmen: Carly Bykerk, Heather Trotter and Kelsey Robson. They will be accompanied by some returnees who will all battle for playing time.

G O A L K E E P E R SAfter fi nishing an amazing season with only

one goalkeeper, Memphis will now have three to choose from. Redshirt freshman Elise Kuhar-Pitters will be returning to the net. The goal-keeper suffered a season-ending injury in the fi rst match of the 2007 season that forced her to sit out. Kuhar-Pitters returned to the net in the spring for the Lady Tigers to lead them past tough competition.

Jordan Boyle and Nikki Unland will round out the goalkeepers for the Lady Tigers in 2008.

S C H E D U L EThe Conference USA Champion Lady Tigers

will face some tough competitors in the 2008 season, as they will play against schools from the ACC, Big 12 and SEC. Ten home matches highlight the fall schedule. Memphis starts the preseason with matches against Notre Dame and Western Kentucky. Memphis will start the regular-season off at home, as it faces Arkansas-Little Rock and Alabama in the fi rst two matches. After that, the team travels to Oxford, Miss., for a match-up against Ole Miss before returning home for a three-game stint against Miami, Okla-homa and Colorado. They will go to Mississippi State to play the Bulldogs before returning home to open conference play.

“Our out-of-conference schedule is phenom-enal. We have some very quality teams on the schedule,” Monaghan said. “We will have some great home matches with Miami, Colorado, Alabama, Oklahoma and plenty others coming

to town to face us at Mike Rose. The non-con-ference schedule will defi nitely prepare us for conference, where our goal is to repeat as con-ference champions. This season should be an exciting one for our fans.”

Southern Miss will be the Lady Tigers’ Con-ference USA home opener on Sept. 26. Mem-phis will battle UCF two days later at home on Sept. 28.

In October, Memphis will only play three out of nine matches at home. They play Houston on Oct. 10, Rice on Oct. 12 and Marshall on Oct. 24, which will be the Lady Tigers’ Senior Day. With the new C-USA rule that every team will play each other once in regular season play, the Lady Tigers fi nd themselves traveling to UTEP on Oct. 3 and Colorado College on Oct. 5. Memphis will take another trip a week later on Oct. 17 as it plays SMU and Tulsa on Oct. 19. For the second-straight year Memphis will play its last two games on the road at East Carolina on Oct. 26 and UAB on Oct. 31 to close out the regular season.

Conference USA Championships will be host-ed by Rice University from November 5-9.

With eight seasons under his belt, Monaghan has taken the University of Memphis women’s soccer program to new heights. The 2007 soccer season is one that will go down in the record books and will always be the season to remember. His squad broke 18 team and 14 individual school records last year, while earning the team’s fi rst conference championship title. The records do not include the six they broke or tied at the Conference USA Champion-ship. The 2007 team is only the third team in C-USA history to shutout every opponent in the championship and win the entire tournament. Monaghan has proven himself as the most successful coach in the program’s history as he was named C-USA Coach of the Year. He posted a school best 17-4-1 record and a winning percentage of .795, moving his career record to 79-69-9 (.532). Memphis has now posted four-straight years of consecutive winning records. Last season, the Tigers went 9-1-0 at home and went on a seven-game win streak. Enduring a tough out of conference schedule, Memphis went 4-1 against the SEC West beating hard competitors like Arkansas and Alabama on the road, and Ole Miss and Mississippi State at home. Memphis ended the year battling UNC Greensboro in the fi rst round of the NCAA Champion-ships. “We’re ecstatic to have been a part of the 2007 NCAA Tournament,” Monaghan said. “It’s a terrifi c outcome of the hard work that we have put forth over the past years. It proves that hard work does pay off and shows how far we have come over time.” Monaghan has coached 16 C-USA All-Conference winners, two C-USA Freshman of the Year, one C-USA Offensive MVP and one C-USA New-comer of the Year in his tenure as a head coach at Memphis. In 2007, Ven-dula Strnadova was named C-USA Freshman of the Year, the fi rst Memphis player to earn the award since Jessica Gjertsen in Monaghan’s fi rst year as head coach. After a phenomenal season in 2007, Monaghan received numerous coaching honors. He was honored by Conference USA as the Women’s Soccer Coach of the Year and was also named Soccer Buzz Central Region Coach of the Year. Monaghan took the reins of the program in 2000 after serving for fi ve years as an assistant coach for his predecessor, Les Szabo. Despite taking over a diffi cult situation, Monaghan has been able to turn the Lady Tiger soc-cer program into a success. In 2005, Monaghan became the longest tenured women’s soccer coach in school history. Just the program’s second coach, Monaghan surpassed Szabo in 2004 as Memphis’ all-time winningest coach

with his 35th career win. The Lady Tiger program has also fl ourished off the fi eld during Monaghan’s tenure. The women’s soccer team earned the National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) College Team Academic Award for the 2006-07 academic year. Since 2000, the team has never posted a composite grade-point average below 3.0. In the spring of 2008, 24 players fi nished the semester with a GPA above 3.0, earning C-USA Commissioners Honor Roll accolades. Four players posted a perfect 4.0. Five Lady Tigers were also C-USA Academic Medal winners, posting a cumulative GPA of 3.75 or higher for the 2007-08 school year. “The most important thing we can do as coaches is try to prepare young people for success later in life,” Monaghan said. “Soccer is important to me, and I want to win. However, the foundation of our program is the student-athlete.” When Monaghan took over the team, he was already familiar with the demands of running a successful college soccer program, having enjoyed tremendous success during his playing career at Memphis. The former goal-keeper still holds school records for single-season shutouts (11) and career shutouts (24). He is third behind Lady Tiger assistant coach Sebastian Vec-chio in career goals-against average (1.40) and second in single-season goals-against average (0.80). His 298 career saves rank second all-time. He was named fi rst team All-Great Midwest Conference in 1992 after helping lead the Tigers to a share of a conference title. In 1993, he was the Defensive MVP of the league’s championship game, helping the Tigers to their fi rst ever NCAA Tournament appearance. His 38 wins at goalkeeper still stand as the school record. “To be a part of Memphis from so many different angles - fi rst as a play-er, then as an assistant and now as a head coach - has been wonderful,” Monaghan said. “I grew up here, and I’ve always loved the city and the school. Now I get to be a part of building a winning program at my alma mater, and that’s a dream come true.” A former prep standout at Christian Brothers High School in Memphis, Monaghan’s collegiate play helped earn him a spot on the U.S. U-20 Na-tional Squad. Monaghan also played professionally, spending two seasons with the New Orleans Gamblers from 1995-96 and one with the Memphis Express in 2002. A Memphis native, Monaghan received a bachelor’s degree in business management from Memphis in 1994. He is single and resides in Memphis.

After being named the 2007 Conference USA Women’s Soccer Coach of the Year and leading the women’s soccer team to a co-C-USA regular season championship, plus winning the C-USA Championship and earning a spot in the NCAA Tournament, Memphis head coach Brooks

Monaghan has a lot to be proud of and a lot to look forward to in 2008. Despite losing three starters, Memphis is ready to build off their record setting year.

Jodi Grant is every head coach’s wish. She is an assistant coach whose talent goes beyond any boundaries. Grant has been a part of the women’s

soccer program since its inception. Along with head coach Brooks Monaghan, Grant led the 2007 Memphis women’s soccer team to its fi rst Conference USA Cham-pionship title and its fi rst NCAA Tournament appearance. “This program would not be where it is without Jodi,” Monaghan said. “I look at her as a co-head coach. Jodi is irreplaceable, and she deserves as much credit as I do for our success.” A native of Sherwood Park, Alberta, Canada, Grant is entering her eighth season as a full-time assistant coach with the Lady Tigers. Prior to that, she served as a graduate assistant coach for one season and as a volunteer assistant coach for a year. Grant has been a great recruiter in Canada, as Memphis has brought in seven Canadians in the past two years. Grant fi rst came to the University of Memphis as a player on the inaugural Lady Tiger squad in 1995. She played four seasons, and in 79 career games, compiled school records still standing today. Grant holds the Memphis record for points (92) and shots (178). Her record for most goals with 33 was passed in 2007 by forward Kylie Hayes. Grant is also the co-holder of the record for most assists in a game (4) and is second all-time in school history in assists in a season (11) and career (26). A third team All-Conference USA selection as a junior in 1997, Grant was also named to the C-USA All-Freshman Team in 1995. In addition to helping Monaghan with on-fi eld coaching duties and recruiting, Grant has also played an instrumental part in the Lady Tigers’ success in the classroom. The last four seasons, Memphis was the recipient of the women’s soccer team academic award from the National Soccer Coaches Association of Amer-ica, and this spring had 24 out of 28 players fi nish with a grade-point average above 3.0. Junior defender Kate Murphy was named Memphis’ fi rst female ESPN/Co-SIDA Academic All-American in 2007, with a perfect 4.0 cumulative GPA. “Jodi is a great tactician on the fi eld, but she’s just as good in teaching the kids off the fi eld,” Monaghan said. “She is great role model for all of the players and really understands where they are coming from.” Grant earned her undergraduate degree in exer-cise and sport science from Memphis in 1999 and also earned a master’s degree in student personnel services from the university in 2002. Formerly Jodi Fisher, she married Memphis men’s soccer head coach Richie Grant in May 2006. The couple resides in Memphis.

After completing his playing career with the Memphis men’s soccer team in 2004, Sebastian Vecchio stepped over into the coaching ranks with the women’s program, joining the Lady Tigers as an assistant coach in charge of goalkeepers and also assists with recruiting. In the three seasons Vecchio has been with the Lady Tigers, he has coached athletes who have posted 24 shutouts and 39 victories. In 2007, his goalkeepers posted a complete shutout at the Conference USA Championships and allowed only 19 goals the entire season ranking third in the conference. “Sebastian has been instrumental in the success that this program has had the last three years,” said head coach Brooks Monaghan. “The knowl-edge that he brings from a goalkeeping standpoint is second to none. He takes a great amount of pride in everything he does with this program, and we are extremely fortunate to have him as a part of our staff.” As a player, Vecchio was a two-year starter for the Tigers after trans-ferring to Memphis from NAIA Mid-Continent College in Kentucky. He al-lowed just 12 goals in over 1,500 minutes of play during the 2004 season for a school record 0.69 goals-against average en route to being named the Conference USA Defensive Player of the Year and an All-C-USA fi rst teamer. The native of Buenos Aires, Argentina, ended his Tiger career with a school low 1.02 goals-against average and 21 wins in two seasons. Prior to his collegiate playing days, Vecchio played with the Argentina U-16 National Team. Vecchio earned a bachelor’s degree in marketing from Memphis in 2005 and a bachelor’s in sports and leisure management in 2008. He has a USSF C License and is the head goalkeeping coach for Alabama ODP. Vecchio is single and resides in Memphis.

Amy Morrison now enters her fourth season with the Memphis wom-en’s soccer team as a volunteer assistant coach. Morrison has previously served as an assistant coach at both Kansas and Texas Tech. In Kansas, Morrison coached with the Kansas Olympic Development Program for two seasons and also coached for two clubs, the KCFC Dynamos and the KC Strikers. She currently coaches club soccer for the 93 CSA Lobos. Her last collegiate coaching job came in 2002 when she served as a volunteer assistant at her alma mater, Kansas. Prior to her coaching stint in Lawrence, she held the post of assistant coach at Texas Tech for two seasons in 2000-01. At Memphis, Morrison’s primary responsibilities include coordinating scouting reports on opponents as well as game day evaluations. When asked about being a part of the Tiger Soccer Staff she said, “I am so thrilled to be part of such a passionate group of coaches. Brooks, Jodi, and Sebastian have a tremendous amount of Tiger Pride. Brooks and Jodi have been a part of this program from the beginning; they con-tinually fi nd ways to make themselves better as coaches and as leaders.

The University of Memphis women’s soc-cer team is looking forward to another success-ful fall season, as it wrapped up a tough spring season schedule. The Lady Tigers fi nished the spring, 7-3-1.

Memphis played a total of four games at home during the spring where it ended up go-ing 3-1, with their only loss coming to Oklahoma State. They jumped back in the second game and were able to get a win against St. Louis. The Lady Tigers beat Arkansas–Little Rock, 7-0 and then battled the NAIA champs of Martin Methodist to a 2-1, victory in its second stint of home matches.

This year the women’s soccer team was able to schedule a trip during spring break as the Lady Tigers found themselves Argentina bound from March 2-10. Although the trip al-lowed for the team to experience the country and do a lot of sightseeing, the Lady Tigers focus was primarily on the three teams they would be competing against during their stay. Memphis won the fi rst game versus Estudi-antes de la Plata, 4-0. They faced Boca Juniors in its second game (the best team in Argentina)

of the trip. Boca Juniors won the match, 3-1. The Lady Tigers faced San Lorenzo in their last game of the trip, winning 2-0. Emiko Schwab was named the Player of the Week by the Ar-gentinean and Memphis coaches.

Memphis fi nished its last four games going, 2-1-1. It posted wins against South Alabama and Vanderbilt, beating both teams 2-0. They tied Auburn 1-1 in a dueling match-up and suf-fered a 2-0 loss to Ole Miss, whom they had beaten during the fall.

“The best way to describe this spring season is ‘long’,” said head coach Brooks Monaghan. ”The competition was fantastic and it was very realistic as to what we’ll face in the fall, We learned a lot about ourselves as a team in different areas and will hopefully take some positives into next fall.”

Although depleted by injuries during the spring, the Lady Tigers still showed signs that they were a force to be reckoned with. The ad-dition of nine newcomers, plus a healthy squad will leave Memphis in a good position to defend its conference title come the fall.

The Memphis women’s soccer team patiently waited for its year to come and 2007 was theirs for the taking. Getting off to a rocky start, they started the season 2-2, before going on a 7-0 run and never looked back. With a bulk of tough opponents on the schedule, Memphis went up against SEC West op-ponents, knocking down four out of fi ve with wins over Arkansas, Alabama, Ole Miss and Mississippi State; two on the road and two at home. Hav-ing confi dence and de-termination on its side, Memphis entered con-ference play at the top of the pack. UAB was the fi rst conference opponent on the schedule for the Lady Tigers. Despite the bongos and the green paint, Memphis reigned victorious, defeating the Blazers 2-1 in overtime. Memphis hit the road the following weekend as the Lady Tigers headed to the Lone Star state. They topped Houston 3-0 and then battled Rice to a 1-1 tie two days later. The match was the only tie the Lady Tigers would experience all season.

The Lady Tigers returned home for the last four games of the season. They beat Tulsa, 3-0, and then defeated SMU, 3-1, two days later. Memphis honored the fi ve seniors in high fashion as it prevailed over Southern Miss, 4-0. Going into the last home match of the sea-

son, the Lady Tigers were in control. They were riding a 9-0 win streak at home and outscored their oppo-nents, 31-4, while posting fi ve shutouts. They got on board fi rst with an early goal in the fi rst half, be-fore UCF scored in the late minutes. As neither team was able to score again in regulation, the match went into overtime. Scoreless again, the match went into double overtime, where the Lady Tigers fell short after a goal from about 25 yards out by the Knights ended the match and their perfect home record. Memphis recov-ered and went on the road

to win their last two games against Marshall and East Carolina. The victory over East Carolina gave the Lady Tigers a share of the C-USA reg-ular season title. Since UCF beat Memphis in

The 2007 University of Memphis women’s soccer team had a record-setting season as it became co-C-USA regular season champions, C-USA Tournament champions, garnered its first NCAA Championship

appearance, and posted a remarkable 17-4-1 mark, all under C-USA Coach of the Year Brooks Monaghan. The Lady Tigers smashed 30-plus records and made their presence known all throughout women’s college soccer and made history in 2007.

the regular season, Memphis received the No. 2 seed going into the C-USA Championship. The Lady Tigers were set to take on the No. 7 seed Southern Miss in the fi rst round of the championship. Ready to play, Memphis brought its A-game, taking down Southern Miss 6-0, set-ting records along the way. Kylie Hayes tied the record for most goals in a championship with three and most points with six. The team tied the record for most goals with six and beat the most points and assists records with 19 and seven. Facing the home team and No. 3 seed UTEP in the second round of the championship, the Lady Tigers had to be aggressive to survive. In front of over 800 fans, Memphis triumphed over the Miners and advanced to its fi rst champi-onship appearance in school history. Live on CSTV, the Lady Tigers took on the No. 1 seed UCF with revenge on their minds. With UCF being the only conference team that beat the Lady Tigers at home this season, Memphis was ready for the match-up. The Lady Tigers got on the board with 18 minutes left in the game to get the 1-0 edge, after a shot by C-USA Freshman of the Year Vendula Strnadova was nailed to the high far post. One more goal with three minutes left in the game by the Lady Tigers gave them the lift they need-ed to seal the deal and take home the 2007 C-USA Championship crown and make a trip to the NCAA Championship. Memphis drafted the UNC Greensboro Spartans in the fi rst round of the NCAA Champi-onship, which was held on the campus of UNC-Chapel Hill. In the Lady Tigers’ fi rst NCAA ap-pearance, they played every second of the match with great intensity, but lost to UNC Greensboro 1-0, in the fi rst round, wrapping up a historic sea-son that is surely one to remember. The 2007 women’s soccer season is one that will be remembered among the Tiger com-

A New Chaptermunity for years to come: Brooks Monaghan earned C-USA Coach of the Year honors. Ven-dula Strnadova was named C-USA Freshman of the Year. Strnadova was also named First Team All-C-USA. Emiko Schwab and Kylie Hayes were named second team All-C-USA. The team won 17 games (most wins in school history), re-ceived Top 25 votes, shared the regular season title, won the championship title and made it to the NCAAs.

L A D Y T I G E R S I N T H E P O L L S The women’s soccer team had a season high position at No. 25 spot in the Soccer Buzz Na-tional Polls. This was the fi rst time that the Lady Tigers had ever been ranked in the Top 30. They wrapped up the season in the central region No. 7 spot, previously holding the No. 5 spot, which was the highest position they’ve ever held. In the NSCAA, the Lady Tigers received votes for the Top 25, while holding onto the No. 5 spot in the region for the fi nal regu-lar season ranking. All season long Memphis climbed the ranks as each win went by.

H I S T O R Y Junior forward Kylie Hayes made history on October 21, 2007, as she scored the 34th goal of her career and be-came the all-time leading goal scorer in Memphis women’s soccer history. She passed assistant coach Jodi Grant’s previ-ous record of 33. Hayes fi nished the season with 37 goals. The last three goals came as a hat trick during the C-USA Championship fi rst round game, where Hayes led the Lady Tigers to a 6-0 win. She is in range of three career records in-cluding points, shots and matches played. Keep an eye out for Hayes in her senior campaign in 2008 as she is capable of being Memphis’ all-time most decorated women’s soccer player.

D E F E N S E W I N S G A M E S Memphis held its opponents to an average of 7.4 shots per game. They allowed 19 goals on 162 shots, while recording a remarkable 10 shutouts. The Lady Tigers outscored their oppo-nents, 9-1, in the last four games of competition. Their opponents had a goals-against average of 0.84. Memphis’ defense is what kept the team as a top contender in the C-USA all season, while its offense was the x-factor.

T A K I N G C A R E O F B U S I N E S S T H E S C H W A B W A Y

Junior midfi elder Emiko Schwab was named to the All-C-USA second team and All-C-USA Championship team for her performances dur-ing the 2007 season. Schwab was a difference maker in the midfi eld for Memphis as her pres-ence alone was a scare tactic. She posted her best season as a Lady Tiger, scoring seven goals and tallying fi ve assists, along with two game-

winners. Her performance earned her NSCAA All-Central Region second team honors.

F R E S H M E N P H E N O M S Despite it being their fi rst year playing soc-cer on the college level, the 2007 class of fresh-men held its own. They accounted for 24 of the teams 56 goals, including fi ve goals during the C-USA Championship. Melissa Smith and Krista Turner both earned C-USA Offensive Player of the Week honors for the Lady Tigers. Smith earned honors during the fi rst week of competition, after scoring the game-winning goal in double overtime on the road against Arkansas and a goal against Arkan-sas-Little Rock. She scored fi ve goals in her fi rst six matches. Turner assisted on all of Memphis’ goals in a 3-0 win over Tulsa and then two days

later scored the Lady Ti-gers’ initial goal that led to a 3-1 win over SMU. She fi nished sixth in the con-ference with a total of six assists on the year. Midfi elder Ven-dula Strnadova racked up a ton of awards at the 2007 banquet. She was named to the C-USA All-Freshmen Team, C-USA Freshman of the Year and was the only freshmen in the league named to the All-C-USA fi rst team. Str-nadova went on to score the game-winner at the C-USA Championship to give the Lady Tigers the title. As the year rounded

out, Strnadova was named to the Soccer Buzz Central Region fi rst team, Soccer Buzz Central Region All-Freshman team, Soccer Buzz Cen-tral Region Freshman of the Year, while also earning a spot on the Soccer Buzz Freshman All-Americas second team for 2007. Forward Ashley Berra earned C-USA Cham-pionship Offensive MVP and defender Kelsey Bakker earned Defensive MVP for their perfor-mances during the championship. Bakker was a steady fi gure in the backfi eld and earned Soccer Buzz Elite team of the week honors for her per-formance. Berra scored three goals during the championship as she earned Soccer America Team of the Week accolades.

I N T H E C L A S S R O O M The women’s soccer program earned the National Soccer Coaches Association of Ameri-ca (NSCAA) College Team Academic Award for the 2006-07 academic year. Memphis was one of 73 schools and one of only two programs in Conference USA with both its men’s and wom-en’s teams recognized. The Lady Tigers were honored for the third time in fi ve years and post-ed a 3.19 GPA. The team also earned the award in 2004 and 2003. Since 2000, the team has never posted a composite grade-point average below 3.0, recording 16 consecutive semesters of 3.0 or higher. Junior defender Kate Murphy headlined the academic honors, as she became the fi rst female in school history to earn a CoSIDA/ESPN The

Magazine Academic All-America fi rst team selec-tion and only the second person in Memphis’ his-tory since Pat Jansen for football in 1992. Mur-phy was also honored with a CoSIDA/ESPN The Magazine Academic All-District IV team accolade and a C-USA All-Academic team honor for her 4.0 cumulative grade-point average. Junior forward Kylie Hayes was named to the CoSIDA/ESPN The Magazine Academic All-District IV team for the fi rst time.

R.C. Johnson has worked 35 years in athletic administration. He was named the Director of Athletics at the University of Memphis on December 29, 1995. Johnson came aboard in February of 1996 and immediately set forth in bringing University of Memphis Tiger athletics into na-tional prominence. Over the last 12-plus years, the dynamic ad-

IOWA, 1965IOWA, 1965country, and a complete renovation of the Murphy Ath-letic Complex. During his tenure, Johnson has created the Athletic Director’s Honor Roll, the Tiger Scholarship Fund Board of Directors and the Athletic Director’s Ambassador’s Club. The Ambassador’s Club, which started with two members in 1997, has reached an all-time high of 32 members under Johnson. A signifi cant revenue source for Tiger Athletics, members of the Ambassador’s Club pledge to commit $500,000. In June 2007, Johnson inked a lucrative long-term contract extension with Learfi eld Sports, which enabled Tiger Sports Properties to retain the multime-dia rights for Memphis Athletics through 2017. In addi-tion, the terms of the new agreement allow for options to continue through the 2021-22 academic year. The Tigers signed on with Learfi eld Sports in 2001, granting the partner radio and television rights, athletic venue signage, game day promotions and sponsorships, as well as the offi cial athletic department website. Terms for the contract call for the Tigers to receive a fi nancial guarantee each year of the agreement and to partici-pate in annual revenue sharing. A believer in academic excellence as well as ath-letic success and national prominence, Johnson leads a department that set a school record with 50 percent of its student-athletes achieving a 3.0 or higher during the fall 2007 semester. For the most recent academic year, which includes fall 2007 and spring 2008, 315 student-athletes earned at least a 3.0 GPA and 35 students excelled with a 4.0 GPA. Ten teams logged a semester average of 3.0 or higher for the 2007 fall semester, and the athletic department as a whole is represented by a 2.8 GPA for the entire year. In May 2008, 39 athletes earned their degrees, marking the largest group for one ceremony since 2002 when the athletic academic services department began keep-ing record. And, under Johnson’s guidance, Memphis boasts an 89 percent graduation rate of all student-athletes who complete their eligibility at the U of M. Before taking over Tiger Athletics, Johnson was responsible for directing a Temple program with more

than 500 student-athletes in 20 men’s and women’s intercollegiate sports, including nationally-visible pro-grams in men’s basketball and football. He was named Temple’s director of athletics on May 9, 1994, after serving nearly six years as director of athletics at Mi-ami (Ohio) University. He had also previously led the department at Eastern Illinois from 1980-88, and was the associate athletic director at Northern Iowa from 1974-80. A former football coach himself, Johnson served as an assistant at Mankato State University from 1968-74. He coached at Youngstown State University dur-ing the 1967 and 1968 seasons after serving as an assistant coach at Northern Iowa (1965-67) and the University of Iowa (1963-65). An Ottawa, Ill., native, Johnson holds his bache-lor’s degree in sociology from the University of Iowa in 1965 and earned his master’s degree in physical edu-cation from the University of Northern Iowa in 1967. Johnson is a member of the National Association of College Directors of Athletics and serves on the NCAA Leadership Council. A veteran administrator

ministrator has structured one of the most successful coaching staffs in the history of Tiger athletics and con-tinues to strive for athletic and academic excellence while recognizing the importance of building strong university and community ties. Since his arrival, Johnson has hired such high-profi le coaches as former Clemson head football coach Tommy West, who has taken the Tigers to a bowl game in four of the last fi ve seasons, and former New Jersey Nets and UMass head basketball coach John Calipari, who had his squad in the 2008 National Championship Game. In the last fi ve years, six U of M coaches have earned Conference USA Coach of the Year honors, including Calipari, who earned the league’s top honor in both 2006 and 2008. Also in the last fi ve years under Johnson, the Tigers have captured 11 C-USA championships in men’s basketball, men’s soccer, women’s soccer, women’s golf and men’s track. Calipari has led his Tigers to four regular-season titles (2004, 2006, 2007, 2008) and three C-USA Tournament champi-onships (2006, 2007, 2008). Richie Grant led the men’s soccer program to a league championship in 2004, while Brooks Monaghan piloted the women’s soccer team to a C-USA title last fall. In the spring of 2007, Kevin Robinson earned C-USA Coach of the Year honors after leading the Tigers to an outdoor track championship. Johnson is currently spearheading his second major capital campaign which will benefi t nearly every area of the Tiger Athletic Department. Included in the $12.9 million project is a new addition to the Athletic Offi ce Building, the newly-completed softball complex, an approaching redesign of the Tiger baseball stadium, a golf practice facility, a renovation of the Finch Center men’s basketball practice facility and a Hall of Fame to honor Tiger athletes. Johnson’s fi rst capital campaign was previously the largest fund-raising effort in the his-tory of Memphis athletics. The $8 million campaign included a new 8,000-square-foot football and basket-ball offi ce complex addition, a new basketball practice facility, which is still considered one of the best in the

in Conference USA, Johnson sits on both the C-USA Bowl Committee and the league’s Finance Committee. His involvement in the Memphis community includes serving on the Memphis and Shelby County Sports Authority, and he most recently was invited to serve on the Mayor’s Stadium Committee which is charged with evaluating the feasibility of a new football stadium. In addition, he is a member of the University of Memphis President’s Council. Johnson and his wife, Melba, have three chil-dren: Jeff, P.A. and Michelle; fi ve grandchildren and one great grandson.

It is a defi nite asset to both the Tiger and Lady Tiger soc-cer programs. “The facility has helped us in recruiting some of the better players in the region to our program,” said head men’s coach Richie Grant. Participant facilities within the stadium structure include showers and locker rooms, a food court, corporate skybox, full media services, administrative offi ces and a conference room. “Being able to play at Mike Rose enables our program to compete with anyone, facility-wise,” said head women’s coach Brooks Monaghan. “There may be some facilities that are similar or close to Mike Rose, but I honestly don’t feel there are any better. As far as quality and atmosphere, Mike Rose is fi rst class.” Located in southeast Shelby County, just east of the Memphis city limits, the Mike Rose facility has established itself as one of the premier soccer facilities in the Mid-South. In 2003, the MRSC was the host site for the Ford Conference USA Tournament. “We feel like Mike Rose is one of the best college soccer facilities in the country,” Grant said. “The quality of the surface makes for entertaining soccer every night.”

In 2008, the Memphis Tigers will bring an exciting style of soccer to the Mike Rose Soccer Complex (MRSC). It will mark the eighth season that the MRSC has served as the home of Tiger soccer.

The Murphy Complex underwent some major changes and renovations in 2003. The renovations were part of a $6 mil-lion facelift given to the Murphy Complex, giving Tiger stu-dent-athletes a state-of-the-art training facility.

The renovated training room has examination rooms for team doctors, rehabilitation and taping areas and an in-ground aquatic pool for rehabilitating injuries.

The equipment room has been renovated with an addi-tional laundry room to ease the burden of taking care of the equipment needs of the football, track, baseball, softball and soccer teams.

Additional locker rooms have been added for the football staff, women’s soccer team and visiting teams competing at the track and fi eld and baseball facilities. A media inter-view room, video room and storage room were also a part of the renovation project.

Head Strength and Conditioning Coach Mike Stark oversees all workouts at the Murphy Athletic Complex. He is aided by graduate assistants Josh Medler, Kyle Miller and Chad Smith, and volunteer assistant Ken Roach. The Tiger football, men’s soccer, baseball and track teams work out with Stark and his staff. A former U of M football player, Stark has worked with over 40 NFL players, including the Carolina Panthers’ DeAngelo Williams, the New England Patriots’ Stephen Gostkowski, the Cleveland Browns’ Brandon McDonald, the Detroit Lions’ Idrees Bashir and the San Francisco 49ers’ All-Pro receiver Isaac Bruce. In addition to the Murphy Athletic Complex weight room, there is a weight facility in the Elma Roane Fieldhouse that was refurbished in the spring of 2005. That weight room benefi ts women’s basketball, volleyball, men’s tennis, women’s tennis, cross country, women’s golf, softball and women’s soccer. Former Marshall strength and conditioning coach Mike Jenkins was hired in late June to assist Stark and oversee the Fieldhouse strength facility. The men’s basketball team utilizes a weight room that is located in its prac-tice facility, the Larry O. Finch Center. Assistant Strength Coach Richard Hogans is charged with the workouts of Tiger basketball, as well as the men’s tennis and men’s golf teams. With three state-of-the-art facilities located around campus, the U of M Strength and Conditioning staff is well-equipped to handle the training needs of Tiger Athletes.

The 10,500-square-foot varsity weight room is equipped with rugged, versatile hardware so that groups of up to 75 student-athletes can train concurrently with optimal effec-tiveness and effi ciency.

WEIGHT ROOMWEIGHT ROOMHIGHLIGHTSHIGHLIGHTS

Workouts are designed and supervised by one or more of the Strength and Conditioning staff’s certifi ed specialists, and each student-athlete’s individual progress is projected via a computerized database.

The Tiger Power philosophy couples functional, multi-joint movements with fundamental principles: exercise tech-niques are simplifi ed and performed on an alternating heavy/explosive basis in order to maximize training effects while minimizing teaching and training time (as well as fa-tigue). Performance based fi tness and work quality are the bottom-line objective.

The weight room’s equipment upgrade plan refl ects this philosophy and includes: 10 self-contained Olympic plat-forms and power racks; a plyometric/medicine ball area; a complete dumbbell line; and a variety of hip sleds, glute/ham stations, cable stations and other supplemental pieces allowing student-athletes to perform an unlimited variety of exercises and movements.

The modern and spacious facility is also equipped with dressing/restrooms; is naturally illuminated; and is main-tained at a constant 70-74 degrees.

In planning the long-range Tiger Power programs, stu-dent-athletes are assigned to respective developmental levels based on individual ability and training history. For example, newcomers begin with an extensive volume of “foundational” or generalized movements and progress to-ward more intensive and specialized exercises with each successive phase.

The Tigers’ Park Avenue Campus Strength and Conditioning facility is located next to the remodeled indoor turf room in the Billy J. Murphy Athletic Complex. Opened in January 1993, the facility serves each of the University’s intercollegiate sports programs.

The actual workout menu may remain fairly constant over a student-athletes four- or fi ve-year sport career; however, broad variations in workload combine the program’s sim-plicity with a measure of sophistication.

The services include orientation pro-grams, tutoring, mentoring, academic coun-seling, study hall and academic advising. In March 2002, vast improvements were beginning to take place in the CAAS. At that time, Dr. Joe Luckey took over the staff af-ter spending the previous 10 years at Austin Peay State. Dr. Luckey, who was nationally

recognized for his outstanding leadership in 1999, came to Memphis with a vision. In just one short year, Dr. Luckey recruited six new staff members, instituted new academic programs, designed and inspired two special sections of ACAD 1100 for student-athletes and transitioned the offi ce from the basement of the Elma Roane Fieldhouse to the newly-renovated Wilder Tower. Dr. Luckey heads a full-time staff of eight, while also utilizing 20-30 tutors, two academic in-terns, graduate assistants and student workers. CAAS has a unique responsibility as an offi ce as it provides academic services to all student-ath-letes and conducts all necessary paperwork for NCAA academic compliance. Assistant director Kelley Bickham, who was hired May 2007, was brought in specifi cally to handle NCAA, conference and institutional compliance matters associated with prospec-tive and current student-athletes. The fi ve aca-demic counselors are assigned to specifi c sports working closely with those student-athletes and coaching staffs. Dr. Luckey has continued to challenge the Center’s staff, the coaching staffs and the stu-dent-athletes to collaboratively enhance the ac-ademic performance of U of M student-athletes. As the following highlights indicate, the group effort has resulted in positive results for the uni-versity. During the last six academic years, 14 teams have posted their highest-ever semes-ter GPAs, a record number of student-athletes made the C-USA Commissioner’s Honor Roll and the Tiger 3.0 Club and several individual student-athletes have been recognized for pres-tigious academic awards, such as the NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship and Academic All-America.

dent development and academic advising. A total of 8,000 square feet, encompassing the entire sixth and seventh fl oors of the tower, have been designated for the CAAS. The area supports 21 student computer stations, 17 offi ces and numer-ous study tables. Inspired by Dr. Luckey, two special sections of ACAD 1100, Introduction to the University, were offered to student-athletes only. The class was so well received that a third section was offered in 2003 so that all freshman student-athletes could be included in the course. Students who participated in the class earned an average of 15.2 credit hours and an average GPA of 3.25. In its commitment to the overall development of the student-athlete, a fourth section will be instituted fall, 2008.

Four academic awards are sponsored by the CAAS as a means of honoring the top student-athletes. The Tiger 3.0 Club recognizes student-athletes who earned grade-point averages of 3.0 during the fall/spring semesters, while the Tiger Academic Thirty is dedicated to the 30 student-athletes with the best grade-point average on each team and then the next best group of student-ath-letes, totaling 30. The fi nal honor, the TEAM GPA Award, is presented to the male and female team with the best grade point average for the semester. The fourth and newest award, CAAS Academic Achievement Award, is presented to the student-athlete(s) who has overcome personal hardship but has still worked hard in the classroom.

TIGER TRADITIONSA PROUD HISTORYA PROUD HISTORY

WHY TIGERS? When the University of Memphis first fielded a foot-ball team in the fall of 1912, no one had selected a nick-name for the squad. Early references to the football team tabbed them only as the Blue and Gray Warriors of West Tennessee Normal School. After the final game of the 1914 season, there was a student parade. During this event, several Normal students shouted, “We fight like Tigers.” The nickname was born. More and more the nickname “Tigers” was used, particularly in campus publications. But it did not catch on with the newspapers downtown. They continued to use “Normals” or the “Blue and Gray” when referring to the University. Under Coach Lester Barnard in 1922, Normal’s football team gave a ring of truth to that old student yell about Tigers. The team adopted a motto – “Every Man a Tiger” – and went on to score 174 points while allowing its opponents just 29 points. In the late 1920s, student publications and down-town newspapers began referring to the football team as the “Teachers” or “Tutors.” The Tiger nickname would return, but not until 1939 was it finally adopted as the of-ficial nickname for the University of Memphis.

A BENGAL FOR A MASCOT For over 30 years, the sideline mascot for The University of Memphis has been the Bengal Tiger. TOM II, the current Tiger mascot, attends all Tiger football home games, and he can also be found at many other University events throughout the year as a powerful and majestic symbol of Tigers Athletics. TOM II travels in style in a custom-designed, climate-controlled trailer, always with police escort. The first Tiger, TOM, was procured by the Highland Hundred Football Boosters in 1972 and served the U of M faithfully for nearly 20 years until passing away in February of 1992. TOM came to the university on November 9, 1972, when the tiger cub was placed in a dog kennel in Michigan City, Ind., and put on a Memphis-bound flight via Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport. He arrived in Memphis at 3:00 a.m., and C. Cleveland Drennon, President of the Highland Hundred, approved a check for $1,500 to purchase the animal. That morning, TOM was taken to Athletic Director Billy Murphy’s office for a press conference. The Highland Hundred officially presented TOM to the University in a ceremony at Liberty Bowl Memorial Stadium on November 11, 1972, during a football game against the University of Cincinnati. TOM had initially been named ‘Shane’ at the suggestion of the breeder’s daughter. Once in Memphis, though, a contest was held to name the mascot. More than 2,500 entries were submitted to a committee chaired by Judge Harry Pierotti, including colorful monikers like Spook, Sampson, Goliath, Bengo, Sultan, Sahib, Big Cat, Ptah, Touchdown, Sonny Shiloh, and even Bengie Wougie Bengal Boy from Tennessee. The list was ultimately reduced to two choices, Shane and TOM, which stands for Tigers Of Memphis. TOM won. During his first few months in Memphis, TOM was housed by Highland Hundred member Bill Proctor in his garage, which the Club had redecorated, and was closely guarded by Proctor’s hound dog. As TOM grew older, the decision was made by the Highland Hundred to keep the Tiger Tradition alive by securing a new Tiger to be raised as TOM II. In the fall of 1991, Highland Hundred President Ray Daniels and President-Elect Bobby Wharton received TOM II as a gift from Tom and Carolyn Atchison of Florence, Alabama. In 2005, TOM II moved to a new habitat in a rural area just south of Memphis on land offered by long-time Tiger fans Jeff and Mary Kuntz. The new facility was designed as a virtual copy of the original facility in Collierville, but includes many upgrades that improve TOM’s comfort and safety. As one of only two universities in America with a live Tiger mascot, the University of Memphis is unique in its Tiger Tradition.

SCHOOL COLORS The University of Memphis’ official school colors of Blue and Gray were selected in the early 1900s. The colors were chosen in an effort to show unity in a nation that was still recovering from the effects of the Civil War. The student body thought that by picking the colors of the North and the South, the school would show a togetherness among all students.

THE LOGO The University of Memphis’ official logo was redesigned by Craig Thompson, from Disciple Design in Memphis, Tenn. The original logo was an MSU with a leap-ing tiger coming out from behind the letters. The new logo is an “M” with a leaping Tiger coming up over the center of the “M.”

Memphis, named after the capital of ancient Egypt, boasts all the amenities you would ex-pect in a city with over 1 million residents, while retaining the charm and down-to-earth feel of a small town. Downtown Memphis is in the midst of a building boom valued at $2.3 billion which is transforming the heart of the city. One of the most visible projects has been the construc-tion of AutoZone Park, the downtown ballpark which is the home of the Memphis Redbirds,

the St. Louis Cardinals’ Triple-A club. The 14,320-seat stadium includes 1,500 club seats, 48 luxury suites and is located at the corner of Third Street and Union Avenue across from the world-famous Peabody Hotel. The city’s newest downtown project is FedEx-Forum, an entertainment arena that houses both the Memphis Grizzlies of the National Basketball Association and the University of Memphis men’s basketball team. The $250 million state-of-the-art arena features a 35,000-square-foot outdoor plaza where fans of all ages can gather before an event. The arena has over 100 points of sale for concession stands and four full-service res-taurants. FedExForum is located one block south of Beale Street. Memphis’ musical roots can be traced to band leader W.C. Handy, who wrote the fi rst blues song here in 1909, a campaign theme for Memphis mayor “Boss” Crump called “Boss Crump Blues” and later published as the “The Memphis Blues.” The sound soon caught on and blues bands fi lled the clubs along Beale. Young musicians who have performed along Beale include Muddy Waters, Furry Lewis, Albert King, Bobby “Blue” Bland and B.B. King. Beale Street has rapidly become the en-tertainment center of Memphis and visitors and locals alike enjoy the food and music of-fered in the various nightclubs. From B.B. King’s to the Daisy Theatre, from Silky O’Sullivan’s to

the Hard Rock Café, from Pat O’Briens to the Rum Boogie Café, Beale Street has something to offer for everyone. Where Beale Street meets the Mississippi River is Tom Lee Park, site of the annual Beale Street Music Festival. The weekend-long event is just a part of the month-long Memphis in May

International Festival which also includes the World Championship Barbecue Cooking Contest and the Sunset Symphony. Located just off Beale Street is the Peabody Place Retail and En-tertainment Center which opened

in 2002. The 300,000-square-foot retail complex offers visitors a one-stop-shop for fun and excitement with a unique mix of entertainment, dining and shopping options unlike anything else in the region. Also located within a block of Beale is Gibson Guitar Memphis, which includes factory tours and cultural exhibits.
