Season PreviewAfter seeing eight players play their final match as a Kangaroo in 2011, UMKC heads into the 2012 season facing a transi-tion year under second-year head coach, Christi Posey.

In 2012, Posey will feature a roster that is led by five upperclassmen, including four seniors, but also includes eight newcom-ers, including seven freshman. Though, talented, Posey knows the freshman will face an adjustment period in their first collegiate season, but will look to the up-perclassmen to guide the young ‘Roos.

“Our upperclassmen demonstrated ter-rific leadership throughout the summer and preseason – it’s a tribute to them that our team chemistry is so solid this early,” Posey said. “It certainly helped that all of our newcomers attended classes in July in addition to working out and playing to-gether. Our goals are to get better each week and put ourselves in a position to play in the Post Season”

At the setter position, the Kangaroos will be led by senior Ella Meier, while freshman Nicole Wemhoff will see her fair share of time on the court for the ‘Roos.

In 2011, Meier started all 29 matches for the squad, while leading the Kanga-roos with 816 assists and closing out the season with a triple-double against North Dakota State. Currently the Lancaster, Pa., native is fifth all-time in UMKC history with 1,459 assists.

Wemhoff, meanwhile, joins the ‘Roos from right down the street at St. Teresa’s Acad-emy. As a Star, the Kansas City, Mo., native led her squad to a 29-7 record overall and an appearance in the quarterfinals of the Missouri 4A State Championship as a senior, while being named First Team Mis-souri 4A All-State, as well as all-District, after recording 747 assists in 2011.

“Both Ella and Nicole bring great qualities to their team, although they have different

strengths,” Posey said. “Both setters will be relied upon to bring their best effort every night as each of them will impact our success, quite possibly the most of any other position.”.

In the back row, UMKC will rely on a pair of freshman to keep the ball off the floor in Taryn Miller and Lindsay Zych.

In 2011, Miller led Blue Springs to the semifinals of the Class 4A District 14 Tournament where they fell to eventual state runner-up Lee’s Summit West, while amassing 394 digs and 55 aces, leading to a spot on the Missouri 4A All-State and All-District First Teams.

Zych follows in her aunt Carrie’s foot-steps as a Kangaroo volleyball player after helping Bishop Miege to the Kansas 5A State Championship and Eastern Kansas League titles in each of her four seasons and being named Second Team All-EKL as a senior.

“Taryn has outstanding instincts and reads hitters very well and Lindsay is fearless and is always in the right place defensive-ly,” Posey said. “They both are extremely skilled ball handlers and are great com-municators.”

In the middle, the Kangaroos will feature a three-headed monster headlined by senior Brittany Fossier and featuring first-years ‘Roos Skyler Muff and Emma Hagedorn.

Fossier, in her fifth season in the Blue & Gold, returned last season after missing the season with a knee injury in 2010. In 2011, the Plano, Texas, native finished sec-ond in The Summit League at 1.04 blocks per set and now sits seventh in UMKC with 226 career block assists.

Muff joins the squad out of Pittsburgh, Kan., where she led the PHS to two-

straight Southeast Kansas League titles, while being named First Team all-SEK, all-County and Team MVP as both a junior and a senior.

Hagedorn, meanwhile, helped Park Hill South to a 31-4 record overall and a Mis-souri Class 4A, District 15 Title in 2011 and was named First Team All-Region, All-District and All-Conference and Second Team All-State.

“Brittany, our senior middle, has provided our freshmen middles, Emma and Skyler, information, guidance and support all through preseason,” said Posey. “They each have unique talents that we’ll need to compete at a high level. What’s exciting is that I believe we can interchange each of them depending on the opponent’s strengths.”

On the outside, the Kangaroos feature their deepest position with four players capable of making an impact.

Senior Emily Lucas tops the quartet after starting all 28 matches in which she ap-peared in 2011 and notching 249 kills. Twice the Sublette, Kan., native recorded a career-high 16 kills, while being named to the Black Knights Invitational All-Tourna-ment Team.

Jarema returns for her third season in the Blue & Gold, seeing actions in all 29 matches in 2011. During the season, the Highland, Utah, native registered 134 kills, leading the team four times and tallying a career-high 15 against Montana State.

Sophomore Morgan Voorhes enters her first full season at UMKC after spending 2011 at Pittsburgh State. As a Gorilla, the Overland Park, Kan., native led the team with 346 kill, while adding 318 digs.

Freshman Jessica Hendin, meanwhile, joins UMKC out of Blue Valley West where she led the Jaguars to a fifth place finish in the 2011 Kansas 6A State Championship,

Season Previewwhile being named to the 2011 Kansas 6A All-State Tournament Team, to the MO-KAN All-Star Team, to the KVA All-State team and First team All-Eastern Kansas League as a senior after posting 328 kills, 44 aces, 49 blocks and 190 digs.

“This is the position where we enjoy the most depth,” Posey said. “Emily, our senior leads that group with the most experience. Chloe was a game changer last season and we’ll rely on her providing that and more this season. Newcomers, Morgan and Jess will add their own flair to that group contributing strength, athleti-cism and shot making ability.”

On the opposite side, senior Brittney Robers returns to the position after split-ting the setting duties in 2011, while fresh-man Sydney Crimmins joins the volleyball program after spending a year with the basketball team.

In 2011, Robers appeared in 19 matches, finishing second on the team with 265 as-sists, including leading the team six times. 12 times, the Allen, Texas, native finished with 10 or more assists and six times finished with 20 or more.

Crimmins, meanwhile, was a four-year letterwinner in volleyball at Clay Center Community, earning First Team All-State honors twice, Honorable Mention All-State honors once, First Team All-NCKL honors all fours years and Kansas Volley-ball Association all-Academic Team honors four times, while playing in the Kansas Volleyball All-Star Game and the North Central Kansas All-Star Game.

“We scored often in this position last sea-son and that shouldn’t change with a new lineup,” Posey said. “Brittney, has great physicality at the net and Sydney contin-ues to use her natural athletic ability in all areas of the game.”

Head Coach Christi Posey and the Kansas City volleyball team released its 2012 schedule, highlighted by three preseason tournaments and Posey’s return to Kansas where she spent 11 seasons as a Jayhawk assistant prior to taking over the Kanga-roo program.

“We worked to compile a variety of matches and opponents that would give us the best preparation for the Summit League,” Posey said. “The chance to play in three very competitive tournaments with the opportunity to play Wyoming, Kansas and Southeast Missouri State as part of our non- conference schedule will add to the excitement of the 2012 season.”

The ‘Roos will open the season on Aug. 24-25 when they head to Denton, Texas, for matches in the North Texas Invita-tional against a quartet of Texas schools, including Lamar, Prairie View A&M, Hous-ton Baptist and the host Mean Green.

The following weekend, Kansas City will head north to Laramie, Wyo., for the Uni-Wyo Cowgirl Classic for contest against Bethune-Cookman and Florida Gulf Coast on Aug. 31 and George Washington and Wyoming on Sep. 1.

After Posey’s return to Kansas on Sep. 4, the Kangaroos will close out their preseason tournament schedule at the Runnin’ Bulldog Classic on Sep. 7-8 with matches against Charlotte, Gardner-Webb and Delaware State in Boiling Spring, N.C.

On Sep. 14-15, Kansas City will open up Summit League play on the road when it heads to IUPUI and Western Illinois before returning to Kansas City for the home opening matches against Oakland (Sep. 21), Fort Wayne (Sep. 23) and Omaha (Sep. 25).

The ‘Roos then return to the road for three straight matches in the Dakotas starting with a Sep. 29 contest at South Dakota and followed by an Oct. 5 match at South Dakota State and an Oct. 6 match at defending Summit League Cham-

pion North Dakota State.

The following weekend, the Kangaroos begin the second half of the league sched-ule when they welcome in Western Illinois and IUPUI to the Swinney Recreation Center on Oct. 12 and Oct. 14.

Kansas City then makes its penultimate road trip of the year, traveling to Fort Wayne on Oct. 19 and Oakland on Oct. 20, before returning for its final home stand of the season.

The ‘Roos will kick-off their last and longest home stand of the year with their final non-league match of the season when instate rival Southeast Missouri State comes to the SRC, while the stretch will conclude with matches against South Dakota on Oct. 23, North Dakota State on Nov. 2 and South Dakota State on Nov. 4.

Kansas City then closes out its 2011 regu-lar season campaign when it heads north up I-29 to take on Omaha on Nov. 8.

On Nov. 16-17 the 2012 Summit League Championships will be held in Fargo, N.D., with the top-four teams in the league qualifying for the chance to play in the 2012 NCAA Tournament.

The Kangaroo volleyball team was picked to finish seventh in The Summit League’s annual preseason poll in a vote by the league’s head coaches. The ‘Roos, who finished the 2011 season with a 12-17 record overall and a 6-12 mark in league play, garnered 23 points overall to finish just behind South Dakota.

This season the ‘Roos line-up will feature five returners, including senior setter Meier who closed out the 2011 season with a triple-double at North Dakota State, and eight newcomers, including seven freshman.

Christi Posey enters her second season at the helm of the UMKC volleyball program after be-ing named the new head coach of the Kangaroos on Feb. 14, 2011. Prior to joing the UMKC program, Posey has spent eleven seasons as the top assistant and recruiting coordinator at the University of Kan-sas, where she landed the No. 26 ranked class in the nation according to PrepVol- leyball.com in 2010.

In her first season as the ‘Roos head coach, Posey guided the squad to a 12-17 record overall and a 6-12 mark in Summit League play, including five wins in their final seven matches. During the year, the first year coach saw five seperate players named to all-tournament teams, while leading

UMKC to a 3-0 re-cord in the Radford Tour- nament, its first preseason title since

2002. Under her watch, meanwhile, seniors Chris- tiana McQuin (blocks and block assists)

and Nicole Kerkman (digs) each set new school records.

Academically, eight ‘Roos were named to The Summit League Fall Academic All-League

Team, including three as Distinguished Scholars, while the team claimed its third NCAA Public Recognition Award from the NCAA in the last four years after finishing in the top-10 percent in APR of all NCAA Division I volleyball teams for the 2010-11 season.

While at Kansas, Posey worked with the team’s setters and defensive specialist, while also serv-ing as the team’s recruiting coordinator, oversee-ing the team’s managers, team room and camp administration, and acting as a liaison between the team and its sports psychologist, promotions department and the weight room

During her time on the sidelines, Posey oversaw the development of many impressive Jayhawks, including 2010 team members Melissa Manda and Nicole Tate. Under Posey’s guidance, Manda became the all-time digs leader at KU with 1,457 digs in her career, while Tate served as the team’s primary setter the past three season and was named to the 2008 all-Big 12 Freshman squad.

From 2002-05, Posey worked with Andi Rozum who became Kansas’ all-time leader in assists, as well as Jennifer Kraft, who was named 2002 Big 12 Defensive Specialist of the Year.

“I wouldn’t be in this position without the incredible support and valuable experience I gained within the University of Kansas Athletic Department and most specifically my KU Vol-leyball family,” Posey said. “I have much to be thankful for.”

Prior to heading to Lawrence, Posey served as the head volleyball coach at Blue Valley North-west High School in Overland Park, Kan., from 1993 to 2000. During that time, Posey led the Huskies to KSHSAA state tournaments in each of her eight season, winning the state champi-

onships in 1996 and 1997, while finishing third three times. At Blue Valley Northwest, Posey also served as head girls’ basketball and assistant softball coach for the Huskies and was named a member of its inaugural Husky Hall of Fame class.

While coaching the Huskies, she was named the 1999 Johnson County Volleyball Coach of the Year by the Kansas City Star, the 1997 Coach of the Year by the Kansas Volleyball Association and Kansas Sport Magazine after leading her team to a perfect 44-0 record, including a second-straight KSHSAA state championship and the 1996 Coach of the Year by Kansas Sport Magazine and Sports Connection after guiding her team to a 41-3 record and the state championship.

Before taking over the coaching duties at Blue Valley Northwest, Posey served in the same position at Halstead (Kan.) High School from 1983-90 where she was selected to serve as head coach at the 1990 Kansas Volleyball Asso-ciation’s annual All-Star Game after being named co-Coach of the Year by the KVA. Four times her squad’s qualified for the state tournament, including a third place finish in 1990.

In her 18 years as a high school coach, Posey compiled an overall record of 392-171.

During her college career, Posey lettered in vol-leyball and softball at Wichita State as a freshman and sophomore before transferring to Kansas for her final two years of eligibility, where she was a standout first baseman and outfielder for the KU softball team.

Posey, a Wichita, Kan., native, received a bach-elor’s degree in education from University of Kansas in 1982 where she majored in physical education and minored in health education.

Trent Jones has been named the assistant vol-leyball coach for the UMKC volleyball program after serving as the head coach at Missouri-St. Louis, an NCAA Division II affiliate.

CATALINA SUAREZ -- NO. 8, NUMBER RETIRED OCT. 31, 1996UMKC produced one of the greatest collegiate volleyball players of all time when Catalina Suarez donned a Kan ga roos’ uniform from 1988—89. And on Oct. 31, 1996, UMKC retired the No. 8 in her honor. She joins former basketball player Ronnie Schmitz as the only two UMKC student-athletes to have their uniform number retired. Suarez transferred to UMKC following the 1986 season after a two-year stint with the Uni ver si ty of Kansas. After sitting out the 1987 season, she finished her career at UMKC from 1988—89. In 1989, she was named first-team all-Mideast and was an honorable mention all-American. She received UMKC’s David B. Milner Award in both 1988-89 and 1989-90, which is presented to the department’s most

inspirational athlete. She was also a member of the Colombian national team for four years and served as the captain for three years. The decision to retire Suarez’ number was made by the UMKC Special Recognition Committee, which was composed of selected members of the Intercollegiate Athletics Committee. In 2008, Suarez was selected to the inaugural UMKC Athletics Hall of Fame, where she was officially inducted on Dec. 5. Suarez still ranks at or near the top of several Division I national record charts.

The Evolution of the Kangaroo

When choosing a mascot, the discussion usually starts with three main categories - predatory animals, historical or regional figures, or humans that represent

power and strength - and ends with a collection of the usual suspects. Thanks to Walt Disney, The Kansas City Star and the Kansas City Zoo, Kansas City has a very unique mascot, but how exactly does the Kangaroo fit? As it turns out, quite well.

In 1936, the issue of a mascot was first brought up by the editors of The University - the campus newspaper for Kansas City University. Although there were no organized intercollegiate athletics teams at the time, the newspaper staff felt that KCU’s debate team - and more importantly the school itself - deserved a unique identity. During that same year, the Kansas City Zoo purchased a pair of baby Kangaroos, and The Kansas City Star lit the fire with an article titled “Kangaroo May Go To KCU ... Student Editors Believe University Should Have A Symbol.”

Others on campus were not as enthusiastic. The editors of The Crataegus - the University’s yearbook - thought that a Kangaroo was not an appropriate symbol for KCU. A proposed feature page in the 1936-37 yearbook for the Kangaroo emblem was deleted, sparking a tremendous amount of debate.

As the debate wore on, interest from the campus community began to wane. It looked as if KCU would not adopt a mascot after all. But in 1937, two events would combine to indelibly link the Kangaroo with the University and give the mascot a name.

During the student government elections in the spring semester, the CO-OP Party adopted the Kangaroo as its official mascot, naming him Kasey. With a landslide victory in April behind the slogan “Kasey fits KC”, the first part of the foundation was laid. During the same month the first issue of KCU’s humor magazine - The Kangaroo - was published, with a kangaroo gracing the cover. Six months later, a kangaroo made another appearance on the cover of The Kangaroo, and although it wasn’t a solo appearance, it put a quick end to the debate over whether a kangaroo was an appropriate mascot for KCU.

Missouri native and famed cartoonist Walt Disney provided the artwork for the cover illustration, which featured Mickey Mouse shaking hands with Kasey Kangaroo. In a matter of a few years, The Kangaroo thrived while The Crataegus floundered, with the latter eventually folding. The Kangaroo became the University’s yearbook and the Kangaroo became the official mascot of Kansas City University.

Kasey has undergone several changes over the years, with the most recent metamorphosis led by Kansas City Director of Athletics Tim Hall. With the help of local advertising agency Bernstein-Rein, Kansas City developed a set of new athletics marks in the spring of 2008. After a community vote, the new Kangaroo logo was unveiled in May. With its aggressive snarl, the new Kangaroo capitalizes on Kansas City’s mission to be an outstanding urban university while keeping mindful of the traditions established in 1937.

The first incarnation

of Kasey Kangaroo

was inked by Marceline, Mo., native

Walt Disney, and featured

the KCU mascot

alongside a somewhat

more famous rodent.

RESIDENTIAL LIFE AT UMKCStudent housing at Kansas City is about more than just offering you a place to eat and sleep - it’s about your total educational experience. Whether it’s continuing a classroom discus-sion over pizza, or attending a discussion with faculty outside of class, we know that having a home away from home is important. Residence Life offers you a place where you can hang out with friends, learn about others and most importantly, learn about yourself.

That’s why all housing is conveniently located on the west side of campus, near the Universi-ty Center (and cafeteria), Swinney Recreation Center, and within easy walking distance to all other Volker campus buildings. Nearby are the Country Club Plaza and museums, and other local attractions. Downtown Kansas City, Mo., is approximately 10 minutes away by automobile (or bus).

Director of Athletics Tim Hall

TIM HALLDirector of Athletics

Tim Hall was named the Kansas City Director of Athletics on Feb. 14, 2007. In this role, he serves as a member of the Chancel-lor’s executive cabinet, and is responsible for leading the strate-gic direction in growing the university’s intercollegiate athletics program.

Since Hall accepted the post in 2007, Kansas City has seen com-petitive improvement every year. Kansas City has won Summit League Championships in men’s soccer, men’s golf, men’s tennis and softball. This academic year, all four of those Kansas City sports were named favorites to win the Summit League, with three others picked in the top three.

The women’s basketball team posted its first 20-win season since 1991-92 and its second ever trip to the Summit League Tournament Championship game. In the fall, the women’s soccer team advanced to the conference tournament for the first time in school history, while setting a school record for wins. Women’s tennis also set a record for wins following last year’s season, and advanced to its first ever Summit League Tournament Final appearance.

Kansas City’s athletics department staffing has grown during Hall’s tenure as part of an effort to catch up to other Summit League schools. Those additions have made Kansas City more competitive in recruiting student-athletes, while providing fundraising support for many facility improvements and agreements in each sport.

The successes were reinforced by the NCAA in 2009, as Kansas City Athletics received full NCAA certification without condition. The certification showed that the University is operating its athletics program in substantial confor-mity with operating principles adopted by the NCAA Division I membership and is valid for the next 10 years.

Hall led the ‘Roos to their most successful year since 2000 in 2008-09 and the ‘Roos continued excelling in 2009-10. Kansas City claimed a pair of Summit League titles in men’s soccer and men’s tennis, while also earning the runner-up nod in both men’s and women’s golf, which led to a record 2009 finish in the annual Learfield Sports Directors’ Cup.

During the 2010 campaign, the men’s tennis team won The Summit League regular season title and the men’s golf program was the league runner-up. This helped the men’s teams finish fourth in the Dr. William Steinbrecher Men’s All Sports Award standings, the best showing since 2001-02. Overall, the ‘Roos moved up to sixth place in the Commissioner’s Cup standings, which was the highest finish since 2006-07.

In the classroom, the department posted a grade point average of better than 3.20 this past year. It had a 3.10 cumulative grade point in the spring 2010 semester and eight programs finished with at least a 3.0 GPA. Additionally, Kansas City finished with a 958.7 APR average and the volleyball team received the NCAA public recognition award.

Internally, Hall has been hard at work to align the department with peer institutions and the NCAA. He restructured the rules compliance office to be more in line with NCAA rules and the Student-Athlete Support Services Office to better assist and prepare Kangaroo student-athletes. He also continues to work with new Kansas City Chancellor Leo Morton to craft the athletics’ strategic plan in concert with the University’s new strategic goals.

From a fund raising standpoint, Kangaroo Athletics have never been better. In 2008, Kansas City received a $5 million pledge from the Stan-ley H. Durwood Foundation, the largest gift in Athletics’ and the fourth-largest gift in University history. The resulting Stanley H. Durwood Soccer Stadium and Recreational Field opened in August 2009 and is among the premier soccer facilities in the Midwest region.

Additional facility improvements have included revamped locker rooms and lounges for men’s and women’s basketball and volleyball and the retro-fitting of Old Swinney Gymnasium, which provides the basketball and volleyball programs with a first-class practice facility. The project was funded through $500,000 of private support.

Hall also was instrumental in the renovation of the Swinney Recreation Center with the installation of new seatback bleachers and new score-boards, which enhances the venue for the men’s and women’s basketball and volleyball programs. The renovation allows the men’s basketball squad to move its games back on campus full-time for the 2010-11 season.

Hall is also in the midst of a partnership with the Kansas City Parks Department to build a sports complex that will house both indoor and outdoor tennis courts, a 200-meter indoor track and a softball field.

On an annual basis, the Kangaroo Athletics Scholarship Fund, which was rebranded prior to the 2007-08 school year, has posted three straight years of 50 percent growth, while donor participation is up over 200 percent. He also increased the department’s total sponsorships and gift-in-kind assistance to over $1.5 million and cash and trade sponsorships have increased 265 percent since 2008. Additionally, Hall has increased Kansas City’s external support by 45 percent over fiscal year 2009 from $1.6 to $2.4 million. Hall also has also reconnected with over 200 former ‘Roos with the former student-athlete association.

In the community, Hall has been active in an effort to get more community leaders involved in the Athletics Department. Hall restructured the Athletics Foundation Board in 2009 by adding representatives from a number of Kansas City-based businesses such as Cerner, Kansas City Southern Railways, Lathrop Gage LLC, and Mark One Electric. New partnerships have come quickly to Kangaroo Athletics, including television (Niles Media Group) and radio (810 WHB) agreements that ensure a continued presence within the Kansas City region. Renowned local advertising firm Bernstein-Rein produced a redesigned athletics logo and graphics set, while additional contractual agreements have also been signed with adidas, Truman Medical Centers, Pepsi, T-Mobile and JumpTV to better serve the department’s student-athletes.

Hall continues to bring leadership to Kansas City and The Summit League. In addition to his role on the Chancellor’s Executive Cabinet, Hall serves on The Summit League Joint Council leadership committee and sits on the league’s men’s basketball scheduling committee and the men’s and women’s soccer coaches committees. Additionally, Hall is also in the second of a three-year term on the NACDA Division 1-AAA Executive Committee and serves on the NCAA volleyball rules committee.

Hall came to Kansas City after serving as the Associate Athletics Director for Development at Kent State University in Kent, Ohio, from 2003-07. While at KSU, he was a member of the athletics senior administrative staff, working in all phases of departmental management including game and personnel contracts, scheduling, budget, policy and strategic planning.

In this role, Hall created and implemented a comprehensive restructuring of the athletic advancement unit, resulting in the creation of the Office of Athletic Advancement. He increased fundraising by more than 33 percent, helped secure the largest gift to date in the history of KSU athletics, a $1.53 million gift for the baseball stadium renovation, and raised more than $16.1 million.

Prior to moving back to Ohio, Hall worked at Eastern Kentucky University from 2000-03. Hall began work as the collegiate Director for Development in 2000 before being promoted to the Director of Major Gifts and Special Projects in 2001. In this capacity, he raised over $4.6 million for the university, including $1.3 million for athletics.

Hall also served as the Assistant Director of Development at Saint Xavier University in Chicago from September 1999 through October 2000. At Saint Xavier, Hall managed fundraising efforts for a $13 million Athletic and Convention Center. He also managed the President’s Club, and developed and implemented the Cougar Club, an athletics affinity group.

Before moving to Chicago, Hall worked at Youngstown State University as an Assistant Director of Athletic Development from 1997-99. In this role, he helped the university complete its successful $26 million capital campaign. Hall also began his collegiate career at YSU, serving in the school’s athletic marketing and promotions office.

Hall earned his bachelor’s degree in sports administration from the University of Toledo in 1994. He then received his master’s degree in sports administration from Kent State University in 1998.

Hall and his wife, Beth, have four children, Aidan, Aislin, Donovan and Landon, and they reside in Kansas City, Mo.

The Kangaroo Athletics Scholar-ship Fund (KASF) supports

the student-athletes of Kansas City through the offsetting of expenses such as scholar-ships, travel, recruiting, and equipment. As costs continue to rise, support for our student-athletes through the KASF becomes more crucial as we continue to build an elite Summit League athletics depart-ment.

For the 2012-13 academic year, student-athlete scholarship ex-penses are expected to include: •Tuition(out-of-state):$17,692 •RoomandBoard:$10,130 •Tuition(in-state):$6,876 •BooksandFees:$1,612

In addition, over the past year it has become extremely difficult for budgets to keep pace with rising travel and food costs. While athletics must be vigilant in cost containment, we must continue to provide for the best possible student-athlete experience. That is where the KASF donors can play such a tremendous role.

Donors to the KASF enjoy a number of benefits based on their donor level, including Priority Seating, access to the pre-game Kan-garoo Club hospitality parties at men’s basketball games, invitations to a number of events, complimentary media guides and gifts, and exclusive opportunities to meet the student-athletes, staff, coaches, and University leadership.

The home of Kansas City Athletics, Swinney Recreation Center is also one of the finest fitness centers in all of Kansas City. Created through a $14.5 million addition to the old Swinney Gymnasium, the center includes five basketball courts, four racquet ball courts, a 25-meter indoor/outdoor pool and three exercise rooms - two weight rooms and a cardio room.

The newly renovated competition court serves as the home venue for Kansas City volleyball in the fall, Kansas City women’s basketball and select men’s basketball contests during the winter. It is also the main practice venue for the men’s and women’s basketball and volleyball teams.

Kangaroo student-athletes enjoy some of the finest locker room facilities in The Summit League courtesy of a major renovation undertaken prior to the 2007-08 school year. Along with providing each student-athlete their own individual locker space, the facility also features a player’s lounge that includes leather couches and a big screen television. In addition, the lounge is equipped with a computer workstation with a high-speed internet connection.

Original Old Swinney Gymnasium, affectionately known as “Old Swinney”, which is part of the Swinney Recreation Center received a face lift in the summer of 2010. The renovation transforms the Old Swinney Gymnasium into a modern, collegiate practice facility that will better serve the student body, faculty and staff members and community members, as well as provide outstanding training opportunities for ‘Roo student-athletes.

The $500,000 renovation plan calls for new basketball/volleyball court flooring and basketball standards and volleyball nets to be installed in the existing facility. The current skylights in the building will also be altered, which will allow for modified lighting to be put into place. The entire Old Swinney interior will be updated and scoreboards will be installed.

Since rebranding as The Summit League in 2007, the league has produced 54 All-Americans, 37 Academic All-America selections and seven NCAA Championships. In the past seven seasons, Summit League teams have achieved nal national rankings in six different sports, won NCAA regional championships in two sports and advanced in three additional NCAA team championship tournaments. That level of success carries into both the classroom and athletic competition.

Two additional student-athletes collected NCAA statistical championships as Oakland’s Reggie Hamilton became The Summit League’s rst men’s basketball national scoring leader and Western Illinois’ Sammy Marshall was softball’s national leader in stolen bases per game. The Summit League’s growth and success is most evident at the annual Basketball Championships. Its 2012 event set a record for total attendance, including the all-time highest women’s tournament gure and the third-best overall men’s draw. The last four tournaments occupy each of the top four all-time tournament attendance totals in league history. Popularity of The Summit League’s marquee event reaches beyond the arena. The 2012 Basketball Championships marked the rst time in league history that all 14 men’s and women’s tournament games

appeared on national cable television. Since 2009, every tournament game has been televised, including the men’s championship on ESPN2 and the women’s title game on ESPNU. Men’s Basketball enjoyed a stellar season on and off the court. The Summit League nished 2011-12 with its highest RPI ranking in history, placing 16th among Division I conferences after peaking as high as No. 11 earlier in the season. A record ve teams played in national postseason tournaments with one, Oakland, making the deepest run in league history with three wins and a semi nal appearance in the CollegeInsider.com Tournament.

In women’s athletics, The Summit League sent a record four teams to compete in national women’s basketball postseason tournaments, including an all-time high three in the WNIT. The volleyball season saw The Summit League ranked as high as No. 13 among the 33 Division I leagues in the Pablo Ranking system. With three national champions and the two-highest placing teams in league history at the NCAA Outdoor Track & Field Championships, The Summit League solidi ed itself as one of the national leaders in the sport. During the Indoor season, The Summit League nished ninth among men’s Division I leagues in the nal USTFCCCA conference index. A combined 12 men’s and women’s Indoor and Outdoor All-America honors went to Summit League student-athletes. The Summit League emphasizes a balance of outstanding athletics and academics. The NCAA honored a record 15 Summit League teams for APR success that included nishing among the top 10 percent for their sport. Individually, North Dakota State’s Amy Anderson continued to garner recognition as one of the NCAA’s top student-athletes by earning the National Golf Coaches Association’s Dinah Shore Trophy recognizing achievement in athletic performance, grade point average and community service.

The league champion receives an automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament in all applicable sports. Since its inception in 1982, The Summit League has had several transcendent moments on the national stage. In 1986, Cleveland State upset third-seeded Indiana in the rst round of the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament on its way to a berth in the Sweet 16. A decade later, Valparaiso captured the nation’s attention when Bryce Drew hit “the shot” to topple No. 4 seed Mississippi in an NCAA rst-round game that sparked its 1998 Sweet 16 run. More recently, Oral Roberts’ baseball program nished the 2004 campaign with a national-ranking and became the rst Summit League school to reach an NCAA Super Regional in 2006. Three years later in 2009, North Dakota State became the league’s rst softball team to win an NCAA regional and advance to the Super Regional round. During the 2008-09 basketball season, South Dakota State’s women’s team was nationally-ranked throughout the year and capped its season with an NCAA Tournament rst round victory. The League has produced nine NCAA champions, four Olympic medalists and numerous All-Americans in the sports of track and eld, swimming and diving and cross country. Several professional athletes and draft choices have come directly from The Summit League, including three Major League Baseball rst round picks, a pair of NBA rst round choices, and one WNBA selection. Former Summit Leaguer Kevin Duckworth (NBA) was a two-time all-star during his professional career. To coincide with The Summit League’s 30th Anniversary Season, the league released a list of its Top 30 Distinguished Contributors from the Division I era as selected by a panel of voters from member schools and media. Four individual NCAA champions and three Olympic medalists along with four NBA players and two World Series Champions headlined The Summit League’s list of top student-athletes, coaches and administrators that was the jewel of the anniversary celebration.
