Auburn Arena

The Auburn University Board of Trustees approved the building of the new $92.5 million Auburn Arena and Practice Facility on June 29, 2007. The Auburn Arena has a capacity of 9,121. It includes more than 29,000 square feet of student-athlete space, a two-court practice facility, coaches’ offices, the Auburn University Athletic Ticket Office, an AU Team Store, the relocated Lovelace Museum and Hall of Honor, two food courts and many other amenities.

Designed by 360 Architecture out of Kansas City, Mo., the 243,792 square foot facility is located northwest of Beard-Eaves-Memorial Coliseum on Roosevelt Drive, across the street from the Student Activi-ties Center parking lot.

The Auburn Arena is an important recruiting tool for the Auburn men’s and women’s basketball teams. It features improved student-athlete facilities such as men’s and women’s locker room suites with sports medicine facilities, lounges and team meeting rooms. In addition to the two-court practice facility that allows the men’s and women’s teams to practice simultaneously, a strength and conditioning center also adds bonus to the new arena.

When it comes to seating in the Auburn Arena, fans are closer to the action than ever before. The new arena features chair back seats along with bleacher seating for students. It also offers better sight lines that move fans closer to the court. The furthest seat is 43 feet in elevation from court-side, compared to 60 feet in elevation at Beard-Eaves, with two-thirds of the seats in the new facility being less than 27 feet in elevation from court-side.

In addition, the arena features 12 court-level luxury suites that open to the outside of the arena for multiple entertaining opportunities throughout the year. Loge Box seating is also available as well as on-site food preparation. The scoreboard features a high-definition video board with full message/information center technology. Students enjoy a private entrance, a private court-side commons and food court.

The facility also serves as more than a sports complex. With over 12,000 square feet of banquet/entertainment space, its design affords ready adaptation into a site for concerts and other cultural events, convocations and various community gatherings.

The Waycross, Ga., native is a two-time Auburn graduate in horticul-ture, receiving a bachelor ’s degree in 1969 and a master ’s in 1971. In 1973, he earned a doctorate in horticulture from Michigan State University.

Shortly after returning to his alma mater, Gogue engaged the talent and insight of the Auburn family toward development of a dynamic and for-ward-looking strategic plan to guide the University for the future. Students, alums, employees, business leaders and other stakeholders contributed to a roadmap that will strengthen Auburn’s academic, research and outreach

mission, improve operational efficiency and develop human capital. Gogue arrived at Auburn with ample experience in the top ranks of academia. He was selected president of

New Mexico State University in 2000 and, in 2003, named president of the University of Houston and chancellor of the University of Houston System.

Gogue worked for the National Park Service from 1973 to 1986, rising to the position of chief administrative scientist for several regions of the U.S. Park system.

Utah State University selected Gogue as provost in 1995.

Gogue met his wife, Susie, in the 8th grade, and they married during their undergraduate years at Auburn. Susie also earned two Auburn degrees. They are the proud parents of three children and have two grandchildren.

He is a member of Phi Kappa Phi and Golden Key honor societies, Sigma Chi Fraternity, Sigma Xi scientific research society and the National Society of Scabbard and Blade, the honorary military society for all branches of service. Gogue previously served as an accreditation reviewer for the Pacific Northwest Association of Schools and Colleges.

Auburn Director of Athletics Jay Jacobs has a vision of leading Auburn Athletics to becoming the nation’s preeminent Athletics Department.

In his tenure at the helm of the Tigers’ program, the department has prospered athletically, academically and financially.

Under Jacobs’ leadership, Auburn Athletics has made major strides benefitting Auburn student-athletes, coaches and fans. The department has focused on five strategic goals under his leadership: Winning, graduating student-athletes, managing the department ’s fiscal affairs, complying with SEC and NCAA rules and providing a positive game day experience.

The Auburn Athletic Department has consistently ranked in the top 10 percent of the NACDA Directors Cup and has claimed eight national championships under Jacobs, including a school-record four titles in 2005-06, along with 15 Southeastern Conference titles.

Academically, Auburn has earned six public recognitions by the NCAA for scoring in the 90th-100th percentile nationally in the Academic Progress Rate (APR).

Jacobs served as the Senior Associate Athletics Director for Tigers Unlimited prior to his appointment as Director of Athletics and has initiated several successful business ventures for the Athletics Department, including a lucra-tive contract with Under Armour Performance Apparel, which was extended in 2009, and a nine-year extension with multimedia rights holder ISP Sports.

During Jacobs’ tenure, Auburn has also moved forward with numerous facility projects designed to benefit Tiger athletic programs and their fans, most notably, the construction of the $92.5 million state-of-the-art Auburn Arena and basketball practice facility that will open prior to the 2010-11 season. The most recent facilities upgrade will be a $16 million multipurpose 100-yard indoor practice facility that will allow Auburn teams to practice indoors during inclement weather.

Jacobs was named Auburn’s 14th Director of Athletics on Dec. 22, 2004, after working in almost every area of the Auburn Athletic Department for the previous 20 years. Jacobs earned his undergraduate and master ’s degrees in business administration from Auburn in 1985 and 1988, respectively, and was a member of the Auburn football team, earning two letters as an offensive tackle in 1982 and 1983.

He is married to the former Angie Sapp of Dublin, Ga. The couple has three daughters, Haley, Meagan and Jayne.

U.S. News & World Report has ranked Auburn among the top 50 public universi-ties nationwide for 17 consecutive years. Auburn is ranked a “Best Value” by the Princeton Review.

AU invests in extensive national assessments to obtain quality, data-driven informa-tion for measuring and continually improving instruction and student preparation.

More than 92 percent of our students and more than 95 percent of our alumni say that if they could start college over again, they would choose Auburn.

A 2005 Harvard survey ranked AU as one of the top six colleges and universities in the country as a place for young faculty to work, which has a lot to do with actively engaging students.

Mission Statement

We have a two-fold purpose: To enable our student-athletes to be successful in all areas of their lives, athletics and academics, and personal endeavors, both now and in their future careers, by provid-ing them with the best resources available in academics, facilities and coaches: And while meeting the needs of our student athletes, to represent and promote Auburn University in a positive manner in all that we do.

The Auburn Athletics Department’s absolute values are to always tell the truth and to treat others as we would like to be treated. We will also adhere to the timeless values of the Auburn Creed. We will lead the way to integrity, diversity, communications, both internally and externally, compliance and customer service.

We will function as a team, helping each other to be successful, rather than focusing on personal success. We will work for the benefit of others and for Auburn, not for personal gain. We will have an attitude of constructive discontent; always striving to be better.

War Eagle

“War Eagle”Auburn’s battle cry, not Auburn’s nickname. There are several legends concerning the origin of the War Eagle battle cry, dating back to 1864 and the Civil War at the Battle of the Wilderness in Virginia.

Auburn Fight Song

War...Eagle, fly down the field, Ever to conquer, never to yield.War...Eagle fearless and true. Fight on, you orange and blue.Go! Go! Go!On to vic’try, strike up the band,Give ‘em hell, give ‘em hell.Stand up and yell, Hey! War...Eagle, win for Auburn,Power of Dixie Land!

Auburn’s Eagles

For over 100 years, eagles have been associ-ated with Auburn University’s football pro-gram. From a static presence on the sidelines to rousing flights over the field, WAR EAGLE has become an Auburn icon.

The role of Auburn University’s eagles is to promote wildlife conservation as a part of the education initiatives of the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service and the College of Veterinary Medicine’s Southeastern Raptor Center. The USF&WS permits the Raptor Center to house eagles and use them on hundreds of educa-tional presentations each year – including Auburn’s home football games. Currently, three flighted eagles and numerous other non-releasable raptors are used for these educational programs. Eagles stir emotions in many people as they have come to symbol-ize strength, power and courage as well as other important values such as freedom, American heritage and the preservation of our environment. Golden Eagles Tiger (War Eagle VI), Nova (War Eagle VII) and Spirit (a Bald Eagle) are the eagles who have inspired football fans with their graceful flights over Jordan-Hare Stadium.

celebrations. After any football win,

and significant victories in other

sports, Auburn students and citizens

alike join forces to “roll” the trees

Auburn Creed

I believe that this is a practical world and that I can count only on what I earn. Therefore, I believe in work, hard work.

I believe in education, which gives me the knowledge to work wisely and trains my mind and my hands to work skillfully.

I believe in honesty and truthfulness, without which I can-not win the respect and confidence of my fellow men.I believe in a sound mind, in a sound body and a spirit that is not afraid, and in clean sports to develop these qualities.

I believe in obedience to law because it protects the rights of all.

I believe in the human touch, which cultivates sympathy with my fellow men and mutual helpfulness and brings happiness for all.

I believe in my Country, because it is a land of freedom and because it is my own home, and that I can best serve that country by “doing justly, loving mercy, and walking humbly with my God.”

And because Auburn men and women believe in these things, I believe in Auburn and love it.

- George Petrie (1945)

One of the state’s fastest growing cities, Auburn has a population of about 56,000. An adjacent twin-city, Ope-lika, has a population of about 30,000. Atlanta, Ga., is only 100 miles to the northeast via Interstate 85; Birmingham is 100 miles to the north via U.S. 280 or I-85/65; Montgomery is 50 miles to the west via I-85; and the Gulf beaches are about 200 miles away. The university enjoys the advantages of security, seclusion and clean air and water. Auburn is a clean city with a mild climate that offers many cultural opportunities.

Did You Know?

Auburn was named one of the top 10 places to live in the country by U.S. News and World Report in its 2009 rankings.

Top 100Auburn was recently ranked among the Top 100 Sports Cities in the United States by The Sporting News.

Auburn, Alabama was founded in 1836 by Judge John

J. Harper of Harris County, Georgia. Envisioned as a

religious, educational and cultural center, Auburn was

incorporated as a town on Feb. 2, 1839 and Auburn Uni-

versity was chartered as the East Alabama Male College

and has since become a thriving addition to the city.

With each year, “The Loveliest Village of the Plains,”

continues to grow and improve. With a steadily increasing

population of more than 56,000, Auburn offers big-city

appeal in a hometown atmosphere. Cultural activities,

sporting events and educational opportunities are never

in short supply.

Geographically, the city of Auburn and Auburn University

meet at what is known as “Toomer’s Corner.” Here, the

flourishing community and expanding university create

a warm, friendly spirit that can only be described as

“Auburn.” The bond between the city and university is

exemplified along the streets of downtown Auburn where

tribute is paid to Auburn University’s greatest athletes,

coaches and administrators.

Known as the Tiger Trail of Auburn, this walk of fame

consists of more than 80 granite plaques bearing the

names of those honored along the Trail. Each year, new

plaques are added as more Auburn women and men are

recognized for their contributions to Auburn.

Auburn clinched the 1987 SEC regular season title by defeating LSU 71-62 in Baton Rouge. With that win, Auburn finished the regular season with a record of 26-1 and 8-1 in SEC play for their second regular-season title in school history. The one loss on the season came in a one-point heartbreaker to Georgia earlier in the season. Vickie Orr led the team in the win over LSU with 22 points, followed by Mae Ola Bolton with 13 and Ruthie Bolton scoring 12. Auburn fought back to avenge its only loss of the season, defeating Georgia, 83-57, in the SEC Tournament title game. The title was the second for Auburn. The No. 2-ranked Tigers were led by tourna-ment MVP Vickie Orr, who scored a career-high 32 points and grabbed 12 rebounds in the win. Helene Barody also contributed 12 assists and Diann McNeil scored 16 points. The game remained close with a Auburn leading 37-29 at the half, but the potent Tiger offense took control of the game, while the defense held the Bulldogs to just 33 percent in the second half. The Tigers held Georgia’s leading scorer, Katrina McClain to just nine points, well below her average of 26. Auburn defeated Tennessee 102-96 in the semifinals.

Auburn’s 1997 SEC Tournament title run was one for the record books. As a matter of fact, no other team has duplicated what the Tigers accomplished at the 1997 tournament. Coming into the tournament, Auburn was the No. 9 seed with a 5-7 conference record. The Tigers went on to win four consecutive games in four days, a feat no other team has recorded in SEC history. When the Tigers reached the final game with No. 6 Florida, a 52-47 victory, the contest was anti-climactic after the impressive run Auburn had at the tournament. On its way to the title game, Auburn defeated Ole Miss, 72-64, No. 4 Georgia, 67-61 and tournament-favorite No. 8 Tennessee, 61-59, in the semifinals. In the win over No. 6 Florida, Laticia Morris led the Tigers with 22 points and eight rebounds, followed by Tiffany Krantz with 10 points. Auburn held Florida to just 27 percent from the field and 44 percent from the free throw line. Auburn, however hit 85.7 percent from the free throw line and would use those shots to secure the win by sinking 12-of-14 in the final three minutes of the game.

The 2008-09 Auburn women’s basketball team rattled off 20-straight wins to open the season, en route to the team’s first Southeastern Conference regular-season title in 20 years and a 30-4 season record. After sweeping its non-conference schedule, the Tigers won their first five SEC games, including an 82-68 win over Tennessee in front of a sellout crowd at Beard-Eaves-Memorial Coliseum, before falling to Georgia. Auburn won another five games in a row before taking its second loss to Vanderbilt, but capped off the season with a pair of wins for a 12-2 SEC slate. Auburn clinched at least a share of the title with a 65-59 home win over Georgia before taking sole posession of the championship with a 94-57 victory over Arkansas. Vanderbilt and LSU both finished two games behind the Tigers with 10-4 records. SEC Player of the Year DeWanna Bonner led Auburn against Georgia with 22 points and nine rebounds, followed by an eight-point, nine-assist, six-rebound effort from Whitney Boddie. The Tigers were able to clinch the SEC title outright a week later with the home win over the Razorbacks. All 10 Tigers saw action in the game as Bonner tallied 25 points to lead the way for the Auburn win. Sherell Hobbs followed with 18 points while Boddie tallied 10 of her own along with eight assists. The Tigers went on to finish runner-up in the SEC Tournament, falling to Vanderbilt in the championship game. Auburn also advanced to the second round of the NCAA Tournament.

54-56 in Final

Auburn’s first trip to the NCAA Tournament Final Four was a memorable one for the Tigers. It was so close, they could taste the title. With a 14-point lead in the championship game against Louisiana Tech, Auburn was eyeing its first-ever NCAA title. The Tigers would never see that title come to fruition, however, as the Lady Techsters fought back, defeating Auburn 56-54. Auburn was up 33-19 just 47 seconds into the second half to take the largest lead of the game. Louisiana Tech climbed back and took the lead with 2:13 remaining in the game at 53-51. Auburn’s Vickie Orr tied up the game at 53-53 with a jumper, but Louisiana Tech’s Angela Lawson took the lead for good for the Lady Techsters on a three-point shot with 59 seconds remaining. Auburn defeated Long Beach State in the semifinals of the Final Four 68-55, earning the right to play Louisiana Tech in the finals. Ruthie Bolton led the team with 18 points, 10 steals and seven assists, including scoring 10 of Auburn’s final 18 points in the game. Louisiana Tech advanced to the finals by defeating defending national champion Tennes-see 68-59 in the Final Four.

Honored Jerseys

Vickie OrrVickie Orr1985-891985-89

Vickie Orr played for the Tigers from 1985-89, and remains Auburn’s No. 3 scorer in school history with 2,035 points. Orr is one of just three players to reach the 2,000-point mark and is one of three Auburn players to reach the top five in both points and rebounds (fourth). With her 1,006 career rebounds, Orr became a fast Auburn legend. The three-time All-American at Auburn was named the Alabama Collegiate Female Athlete of the Year in 1989 and was a finalist for the Champion/WBCA and Naismith Player of the Year Awards. Her legend grew as the Decatur, Ala., native moved on to inter-national success following her days on the Plains. In 1992, Orr was instrumental in leading the U.S. to a gold medal in the Olympics. She helped lead her teams to gold medals in the 1990 Goodwill Games, World Chammpionships and the U.S. Olympic Festival.

Carolyn JonesCarolyn Jones1988-911988-91

Carolyn Jones, or C.J., as she is referred to, was a two-time All-American in 1990 and 1991. Jones was the first player in Southeastern Conference history to be named the SEC Player of the Year in back-to-back seasons. She remains Auburn’s fifth-best scorer with a career 1,831 points and is second for points in a season with 703. If you needed a hot shooter down the stretch, Jones was the person you called as she holds the career record for three-point percentage at .415. In addition to her All-America honors, Jones was named the Alabama Female Athlete of the Year, a finalist for Champion/WBCA and Naismith Player of the Year and the 1990 SEC Tourament Most Valuable Player. In 1992, Jones helped lead the U.S. Olympic team to the bronze medal and the 1990 World Championship and Goodwill Games titles.

Ruthie BoltonRuthie Bolton1985-891985-89

Ruthie Bolton came to the Plains in her older sister Mae Ola’s shadow. It didn’t her long to step out on her own, however, as Ruthie became possibly the most recognizable name in Auburn women’s basketball history. Bolton played in a record 132 contests for the Tigers and holds the record for games started in a season at 35 and steals in a game with 10. When Bolton’s time at Auburn was up, the McLain, Miss., native continued advancing her skill and went on to a highly-successful 15-year professional basketball career including being a part of 10 U.S. national teams. In addition to playing for the Sacramento Monarchs of the WNBA from 1997-2002, Bolton became recognizable as a two-time gold medalist in the 1996 and 2000 Olympic games as part of team USA. In 1991, Bolton was named the USA Basketball Female Athlete of the Year.
