Undefeated Conference SeasonsTwo of Creighton’s seven outright MVC titles came

by posting undefeated records in league play. Beforeceasing athletics because of World War II, Creightonwon the 1943 MVC title by posting a 10-0 conferencemark. The Bluejays also won the 1931-32 Valley cham-pionship with an 8-0 league record.

Creighton is one of only three current members tohave won a regular-season title with a perfect record.Bradley last accomplished the feat with a 16-0 recordin 1985-86, and Indiana State was a perfect 16-0against the Valley during its national runner-up seasonin 1978-79.

VictoriesCreighton owns 1,352 victories all-time, including

428 league wins in 50 years of Missouri Valley Confer-

ence play. Since 2000-01 CU is 210-82 (.719), the mostwins and best win percentage in the MVC in that time.

Vinardi CenterThe Bluejays went 336-92 in 42 seasons in the

3,000-seat Vinardi Center (then known as UniversityGym) from the time Creighton began sponsoringmen’s basketball in 1916-17 through the 1959-60 sea-son.

Creighton split its home games between UniversityGym and the Omaha Civic Auditorium from 1955-60before moving into the Civic full-time for the 1960-61year.

Creighton moved to its current home, Qwest Cen-ter Omaha, in 2003-04.

“Billy Bluejay” is the official mascot of the Creighton Univer-sity athletics department. The Bluejays were originally depict-ed by a “birdwatcher’s bluejay,” but that was changed in 1941when Joseph P. Murphy, a Creighton alumnus, designed thecurrent version of Billy, one with a more human stance andexpression.

Prior to 1924, Creighton teams were referred to as the “Hill-toppers,” but that name lost favor because at least six otherteams in the country also used the same nickname. TheOmaha Bee assisted the University’s Athletic Board and Alum-ni Association in finding a new nickname by asking readers tosubmit possibilities. After reviewing 200 entries, the AthleticBoard decided upon “Bluejays” because of the school’s colors,blue and white.

Today, Creighton remains the only NCAA Division I athleticsprogram known officially as the Bluejays.

A 2008 inductee into the Omaha SportsHall of Fame, Bruce Rasmussen enters his 16thyear as director of athletics, and 30th overall atCreighton University.

During his tenure, Creighton has risen toprominence with its success on-and-off thefield, impressive new facilities and record-breaking fundraising efforts.

For evidence, look no further than a pairof projects that will change the area athleticsscene for years to come. The on-campusWayne and Eileen Ryan Athletic Center andD.J. Sokol Arena opens this fall and will giveCreighton’s women’s basketball and volleyballteams a top-notch facility to call home. Imme-diately east of the Ryan Athletic Center will beCreighton’s new student recreation centerthat was named the Rasmussen Center in hishonor and will stand as one of the center-pieces on the Creighton campus.

Those projects add to an overhaul in theschool’s athletic facilities over the pastdecade, which has also seen Creighton beginplay at two of the finest facilities nationwide -- Michael G. Morrison, S.J., Stadium (soccer)and Qwest Center Omaha (men’s basketball).

Since Rasmussen assumed the role ofAthletics Director, Creighton has won 19 regu-lar-season and 26 conference tournamenttitles, which have helped lead to 48 postsea-son appearances. Creighton has also been rec-ognized with the MVC All-Academic Award infour of the past five seasons.

Creighton is the only school in the coun-try that can claim 12 consecutive postseasonappearances in both men’s soccer and men’sbasketball.

The Bluejays are the only school in the103-year history of the Missouri Valley Confer-

ence to make 12 straight men’s basketballpostseasons, while the men’s soccer team isone of four schools to appear in each of thepast 17 NCAA Tournaments, also a leaguerecord for that sport.

The Creighton softball team has madefive NCAA Tournament appearances in thelast seven years, including three straight MVCtitles. The baseball team won an MVC regular-season title in 2005 and MVC Tournament titlein 2007 while spending time in the nationalrankings in three of the past five seasons.

A member of the College World Series ofOmaha, Inc., Executive Committee, Ras-mussen continues to play a vital role inCreighton and the city of Omaha remaining ashost of the College World Series. He was oneof six individuals on the CWS Oversight Com-mittee that helped decide the location for thenew downtown TD AMERITRADE Park Omaha(opening summer 2011), which will help keepthe CWS in town for another 25 years.

With Creighton serving as host, the CWShas established new attendance records in sixof the past seven years at Rosenblatt Stadium.

Rasmussen was one of four regional win-ners from the National Association of Colle-giate Directors of Athletics (NACDA) to takehome a 2004 GeneralSports TURF Systems ADof the Year Award.

In terms of academics, Creighton’s repu-tation as one of the nation’s top academicinstitutions is reflected in the success theBluejay student-athletes have had in the class-room during Rasmussen’s service as athleticsdirector. Creighton’s baseball, men’s basket-ball, women’s basketball, volleyball, men’s andwomen’s cross country, women’s soccer andmen’s and women’s tennis teams all havereceived national awards for their academic

success. Bluejay student-athletes consistentlyown GPA’s of 3.25 or above.

Creighton’s primary annual athleticsfundraising events are the Bluejay Bash andthe Bluejay Jamboree. Under Rasmussen’ssupervision, each of these events continues toraise record-breaking funds for Creighton ath-letics. Most notably, the 2008 Jamboree gen-erated more than $270,000 through itsgourmet dinner, raffle and auction.

The successful fundraising efforts haveallowed Creighton to enhance its soccer, base-ball and softball facilities under Rasmussen’sleadership. In 1998, the $1.7 million Student-Athlete Support Center renovation projectwas completed in the Old Gymnasium, result-ing in seven new team locker rooms, anexpanded athletic training facility, new officesand storage space and an academic learningcenter. The centerpiece of the project is TheParker Family Foundation Academic LearningCenter, which houses the athletic depart-ment’s academic support team and features20 computer stations and private study areas.

Rasmussen accepted the associate ath-letics director position in 1992 after a 12-yearrun as the winningest coach in Creightonwomen’s basketball history (196-147), culmi-nating in the program’s historic 1991-92 sea-son.

The 1992 Western Athletic ConferenceCoach of the Year, Rasmussen led the 1991-92Bluejay women to a program-record 28 wins(28-4), the WAC regular-season and tourna-ment championships and a first-round NCAATournament victory in the program’s first-evertrip to the “Big Dance.” With that 28-4 recordin 1991-92, Rasmussen completed his collegecoaching career with a 196-147 record, goodfor a .571 winning percentage.

After serving as associate athletics direc-tor for two years, 1992-94, Rasmussen wasnamed athletics director on Aug. 1, 1994.

A 1971 graduate of Northern Iowa, Ras-mussen came to Creighton from Bettendorf(Iowa) High School, where he put together athree-year girl’s basketball coaching record of64-15. His 1978-79 club posted a mark of 27-2and finished second at the state tournament.Rasmussen also coached at Maxwell (Iowa)High School, with a four-year record of 66-26,and Murray (Iowa) High School, with a two-year ledger of 31-13.

A native of Webster City, Iowa, Ras-mussen and his wife, Jill, have five children:Megan (24), David (22), John (18), Katy (14)and Grace (11).

Service to the community. Service to others. It’s not just a motto, it’s away of life for Creighton student-athletes, both past and present.

More than 20 current and former Creighton basketball players gath-ered on Aug. 10, 2007 for the first Kyle Korver Foundation Charity GolfEvent, held at Omaha’s Shadow Ridge Country Club. It’s become anannual event, having also been held in 2008 and 2009.

A day after fundraising and golf, the players spent a full day clean-ing up an Omaha house as part of a Habitat For Humanity project. Thework included everything from tearing out the old floors, clearing brush,cutting the grass, planting flowers and other assorted yardwork. Whenthey finished, a like-new house was ready for an Omaha family to moveinto.

The Kyle Korver Foundation was started in the fall of 2006. Its intentis to streamline all his charitable efforts and focus on making a positiveimpact on the lives of under-privileged children, as well as improve thequality of life for under-privileged youth and their families in Philadel-phia, Pa., and Salt Lake City, Utah; neighborhoods and cities in need inIowa and Nebraska, where his hometown and college is located, respec-tively, as well as overseas.

Among the other activities that the Creighton basketball programpartakes in is the Ted E. Bear Hollow Annual Run & Rememberance, visitsto local schools and hospitals.

Justin Carter, Josh Jones, Kenny Lawson Jr. and Antoine Young stopped by to visit a fan at a local hospital.

What started as a class project for a family communications class developedinto a long-term friendship when Booker Woodfox brought his teammates tomeet 93-year-old Navy vet Vic McCarthy.

Head coach Dana Altman believes the highest degree of success for a basketball pro-gram is wins on the court, but only if those victories are followed by degrees in the handsof its players.

And long before the combination of academics and athletics became a matter ofnational debate, Creighton was busy blending the two elements of college life and insti-tuting a plan for success.

Creighton’s academic support includes assisting in scheduling, coordinating effortswith advisors and faculty members, monitoring progress for graduation and eligibility pur-poses and setting up two-hour study hall sessions five nights a week. Academic supportservices also utilizes tutors to assist student-athletes on an individual basis.

The Missouri Valley Conference enters its 103rd year at thestart of the 2009-10 academic year, and the nation’s second-oldest NCAA Division I conference continues to be a leader incollege athletics.

The Valley continues to lead by example as one of collegeathletics’most progressive conferences. The Valley emphasizesthe importance of the student-athlete and is aggressive in itsapproach to provide opportunities for its member institutions.

One of the biggest achievements for The Valley is theincreasing respect for the State Farm Men’s Basketball Champi-onship, which continually ranks as one of the nation’s topattended championship basketball tournaments. Notably, inMarch of 2010, the conference will celebrate the tournament’s20th anniversary in St. Louis. Affectionately known as “ArchMadness,” the tournament is the second-longest tenured neu-tral site tournament (trailing only the Big East in New York).

Even though the MVC’s spectacular streak of nine seasonswith two or more conference teams in the NCAA Men’s Basket-ball Tournament ended in 2008, the league continues to be oneof the nation’s elite. Last year, a league-record seven MVCteams were in the post-season. The Valley has had four or morepost-season bids in the same season 15 times, including eachof the last six years. Notably, The Valley has had 22 post-seasonteams in men’s basketball over the past four seasons, with threeNCAA Sweet 16 trips (Bradley, Southern Illinois and WichitaState). UNI represented the league in the NCAA Tournament,while Bradley – for the second-straight year – reached thechampionship finals of a post-season tournament, represent-ing the league in the CollegeInsider.com Tournament.

While the success of men’s basketball has received thegreatest attention, the overall performance of league teams invirtually every sport continues to raise the national profile ofthe conference.

Based in St. Louis since 1985, the league is assertive in itsapproach to hosting NCAA basketball championship events,operating a revenue-producing in-house television network,bidding out the right to host sport championships and landingtitle sponsorships for those events.

The success of The Valley television package is one of thegreat stories in the league, in terms of the clearance of themen’s basketball tournament title game on national broadcasttelevision, the excellent national and regional coverage for bas-ketball and other sports, and the effective sale of advertisingcontent to more than 25 companies. The MVC Television Net-work has blossomed into a revenue-generating vehicle andThe Valley’s most visible marketing tool.

During the tenure of Doug Elgin, The Valley’s ninth andlongest-tenured commissioner, The Valley has been aggressivein hosting NCAA events in St. Louis. This continuing involve-ment of the MVC in hosting NCAA events represents one of themost concentrated stretches of host opportunities for any uni-versity or conference in the 70-plus year history of the nationalchampionship tournament. In 2010, the Missouri Valley willhost an NCAA men’s basketball regional, while The Valley hashosted three Final Fours this decade (women’s events in 2001and 2009, and the Men’s Final Four in 2005). The league hadpreviously hosted men’s regionals in 1998, 1999, 2004 and2007; and a men’s first/second round event in 2002. Addition-ally, Creighton and The Valley co-hosted a men’s basketball firstand second round in 2008 in Omaha.

And while the Missouri Valley Conference has been progres-sive in pursuing NCAA events, it has continued to be a nationalleader in the athletic arena. And starting in 1995-96, the con-ference broke new ground by allowing league members to bidfor hosting rights for select team sport championships. Byestablishing uniform host criteria, the conference is able toassist a host institution in a season-long promotional campaignand provide an avenue where hosts can acquire sponsors andachieve a profit for the event.

The seeds for this vision were planted by eight administra-tors representing five institutions, who met at the MidlandHotel in Kansas City, Mo., on Jan. 12, 1907. The five schoolswhich formed the Missouri Valley Intercollegiate Athletic Asso-ciation were Washington University of St. Louis, and the stateuniversities of Iowa, Kansas, Missouri and Nebraska. Twomonths after the initial meeting, two more schools -- DrakeUniversity and Iowa State College -- were admitted.

In the fall of 1907, basketball became the first competitivesport. Today, the Missouri Valley Conference sponsors the fol-lowing sports: baseball, men's and women's basketball, men'sand women's cross country and track & field (indoor and out-door), men's and women's golf, men's and women's soccer,softball, women's swimming and diving, men's and women'stennis, and women's volleyball.

While The Valley no longer sponsors football (it did from1907-85), six league members compete in football at the FCS(Football Championship Subdivision) level as Illinois State, Indi-ana State, Missouri State, Northern Iowa and Southern Illinoisplay in the nine-member Missouri Valley Football Conference(with North Dakota State, South Dakota State, Western Illinoisand Youngstown State). That league competed as the GatewayConference from 1985-2007. Drake plays non-scholarship foot-ball in the Pioneer Football League.

Athletic accomplishments on the men’s athletics sideinclude 10 national basketball championships, 16 trips to theNCAA Final Four, a 1989 national baseball championship and19 College World Series qualifiers. In 2001, Missouri Stateadded to The Valley women’s accomplishments, as the LadyBears advanced to the Women’s Basketball Final Four in St.Louis. Creighton (2004) and Missouri State (2005) have claimednational championships (WNIT) in women’s basketball, whileMSU also has a 1992 NCAA Women’s Final Four appearance,and Creighton (2003), Drake (1999) and Illinois State (2009)have made semifinal trips to the WNIT postseason tournament.

Indeed, the inclusion of women’s programs under The Valleybanner has provided a boost. The Gateway Collegiate AthleticConference -- which began in 1982 -- merged with the MissouriValley Conference and was unveiled as part of the new confer-ence on July 1, 1992.

And while the inclusion of women’s sports under a compre-hensive athletic umbrella is a recent development in theleague’s storied history, over the years, Valley student-athletesand coaches have become household names during theleague's illustrious history, both during their collegiate careersand, for some, professional careers.

In fact, The Valley began honoring that tradition in the sum-mer of 1997, when the conference began its athletics Hall ofFame. Hersey Hawkins of Bradley, Larry Bird of Indiana State,Wes Unseld of Louisville, Coach Henry Iba of Oklahoma State,Dave Stallworth of Wichita State, Ed Macauley of Saint Louis,and Oscar Robertson of Cincinnati were members of the initialinduction class. Currently, nearly 40 former players, coachesand alums dot the league’s Hall of Fame.

Men’s basketball, perhaps, has the league’s most storied tra-dition with the likes of Hall of Famers Bird and Robertson, butThe Valley has also produced national-caliber student-athletesin its other sponsored sports. In 2001, Missouri State’s JackieStiles became the first Valley woman to earn the Honda-Brod-erick Cup, given to the nation’s top female collegiate student-athlete. In the sport of track and field, Indiana State’s HolliHyche captured seven national sprint titles in the early 1990s,Southern Illinois’ Darrin Plab won back-to-back NCAA outdoorhigh jump titles in 1991 and 1992, SIU’s Brittany Riley becamethe World record holder in the weight throw in 2007. And KylieHutson of Indiana State swept both the indoor and outdoorpole vault titles in 2009.

In the fall of 1997, Creighton’s Johnny Torres was named thecollegiate male soccer player of the year for a second-straightyear, while SMU’s Luchi Gonzalez (2001) and Tulsa’s Ryan Pore(2004) have also earned a National Player of the Year honor inmen’s soccer. Meanwhile league member Wichita State hasproduced three national collegiate players of the year in base-ball, including Joe Carter (1981), Phil Stephenson (1982) andDarren Dreifort (1993).

From its early beginning to its current standing on the mapof college athletics, The Valley will always continue to be proac-tive in its approach.

League members include Bradley, Creighton, Drake, Evans-ville, Illinois State, Indiana State, Missouri State, Northern Iowa,Southern Illinois, and Wichita State. Eastern Illinois is an affiliatemember in men’s soccer, while Central Arkansas and SouthernIllinois-Edwardsville begin affiliate men’s soccer membership in2010.

Think of Omaha as center court: adynamic and unique destination in the centerof the country, full of action. Omaha has thisspecial spirit that fills the city like an arena fullof fans whose team just won with a buzzerbeater. Excitement for what it has built, whatit has accomplished and what’s still ahead.

It’s a spirit born on the banks of the Mis-souri River, a city founded in 1854 by landspeculators convinced they were at the heartof something new. Soon after, the transconti-nental railroad was built and Omahaemerged as a hotbed of activity and newtechnologies.

There is a great story about Omaha’sgrowth in the early days that really speaks tothe pioneering spirit of the city. As Omahaprepared to lay underground cables for tele-phones, workers were trying to figure out theeasiest way to string the lines. Being an inven-tive bunch, Omahans solved the problem bygetting ferrets to help carry the lines throughthe tunnels. Sounds extraordinary, but itworked. Today, Omaha is at the center of thetelecommunications industry. Call for a hotelreservation from anywhere in the U.S. andyou are probably calling Omaha. The city ishome to the Hyatt, Marriott, Radisson, andOmni reservation centers. That infrastructureis also key to the nation’s defense. Offutt AirForce Base, home to STRATCOM, is basedhere. STRATCOM is the nation’s eyes, ears and

muscle when it comes to protecting thecountry.

That spirit is also seen in Omaha’s mod-ern day pioneers. Warren Buffett, one of thewealthiest men in the world, is a plainspokenOmaha-born and bred financial pioneer.When Warren speaks, people listen, learn andmake money. In fact, as you look at the fourFortune 500 companies that call Omahahome, they are all innovators: Berkshire Hath-away, Union Pacific, ConAgra Foods, andPeter Kiewit Sons’.

It’s not just the business community thatembodies that spirit; you can also listen to it,touch it, taste it and feel it when you visitOmaha.

Home to the world’s largest indoor rain-forest, next to the world’s largest indoordesert under the world’s largest geodesicdome, Omaha’s Henry Doorly Zoo is a can’tmiss when you’re in town. Experience whatit’s like to go underground and see rare crea-tures that only come out at night, or surroundyourself with sharks as you walk through an850,000-gallon underwater tunnel. Talk aboutinnovative: the zoo just spent $6 million on aresearch facility allowing it to respond tonational and international conservationneeds.

Omaha’s three Smithsonian-affiliatedmuseums offer a diverse cross section of art.Gaze at a 15,000-pound glass sculpture sus-pended in the air at the Joslyn Art Museum,

hop on board Harry S. Truman’s press train atthe Durham Heritage Museum, or “pilot” afighter jet at the Strategic Air and SpaceMuseum, home to some of the most prizedand rarely displayed military aircraft. Discoverhow nature can seem brand new as you walkthrough over 100 acres of lush and rare fra-grance at Lauritzen Gardens: Omaha’s Botani-cal Center.

Omaha is a mecca to music pioneers, asthe city is known by many as the nation’s pre-mier hot spot for the indie rock scene. It’shome to famed Saddle Creek Records andnationally renowned bands such as BrightEyes, The Faint and Cursive.

Omaha is a city that never forgets itspast. The Old Market is the true merging ofold and new. The historic warehouse districtwas preserved and transformed into the city’sart, shopping and dining district. Uniqueshops and restaurants lining cobblestonestreets, it’s a place to remember where you’vebeen and where you’re going.

The new Bob Kerrey Pedestrian Bridge S-curves its way across the Missouri River. Thisone-of-a-kind structure is the longest pedes-trian bridge to link two states.

It’s just one more example of howOmaha stays fresh and innovative, all thanksto that indelible pioneering spirit.

A view of the Omaha skyline at night. More than 425,000 people live in Omaha, and about 1.2 millionpeople live within a 50-mile radius.

For the 60th consecutive year, Omaha and Creightonhosted the College World Series at Rosenblatt Stadiumin 2009.
