The 2009-10 season marks the fourteenth year of on-campus basketball at Halton Arena. Over the last eight seasons, the 49ers have a 90-21 record at Halton Arena and have advanced to the postseason seven times including two NCAA Tournament appearance. The 49ers captured the 2009 A-10 Tournament Championship in Halton Arena, March 9, which was the program’s first conference tournament title. The decided home-court advantage is in large part due to the atmosphere within the arena. Last season, the 49ers averaged 1,087 fans a game, In 2008, a program record 4,525 people at the La Salle game, January 30. The $26 million James H. Barnhardt Student Activity Center and 9,105-seat Dale F. Halton Basketball Arena opened Dec. 2, 1996. A 30,000 square-foot addition, the Miltimore-Wallis Athletics and Academic Training Center was completed in 2003 and includes a dedicated weight room, practice gym, video center and academic center for 49ers student-athletes. The new addition also includes offices for men’s and wom-

en’s basketball and volleyball. A $450,000 video scoreboard was installed in Hal-ton Arena, Janu-ary, 2006. LED ProTables were installed on both the scorers and press tables, September, 2008. With a dedicated hardwood floor, strictly for 49ers’ men’s and women’s basketball and volleyball, spacious varsity locker rooms, a 7,000-square foot game room, a three-lane jogging track, four hard-

wood auxiliary gym floors, a series of hospitality suites, an expansive weight room, rock-climbing wall and aerobics center, students enjoy surroundings unmatched. Included in the Barnhardt Center is a concession

area managed by Chartwells. Among other events, Halton Arena plays host to high school men’s and wom-en’s basketball and volleyball championships, concer ts and graduation cer-emonies.

The Charlotte 49ers Athletics Media Relations Department sat down with third-year Head Coach Karen Aston to get her thoughts on the upcoming season and several other topics. Aston guided the 49ers to the program’s first-ever conference tournament title after Charlotte captured the Atlantic 10 Tournament title last season. Charlotte won 23 games en route to a bid to the NCAA Tournament.

What did last year’s Atlantic 10 Tournament title, NCAA Tournament appearance and a 23-win season mean to you personally as well as the program? As far as the program is concerned I feel it was an enormous step. Charlotte 49ers women’s basketball had been in great hands when I arrived here, but that was a step that needed to be taken. The players really set some high goals last year. I think that everybody understood that you can only talk about going to the NCAA Tournament so much before it becomes just talk. Winning the A-10 Tournament and going to the NCAA Tournament was validation for the program in terms of moving forward. It was a great satisfaction for me personally, because the players really talked about specific and attainable goals. The team understood there were steps throughout the year that needed to be taken to achieve their final goals. It was fun to watch them take those steps little by little. You could see their confidence growing and the team’s chemistry was tremendous which made it fun. It was very memorable for all of us that were a part of the journey.

Last year’s seniors were three-time All-Atlantic 10 selection center Danielle Burgin and the program’s career leader in three-pointers, shooting guard Traci Ray. What did Burgin and Ray mean to you as well as to the 49ers women’s basketball program? Last year’s junior and senior classes will always be very special to me. This was my first head coaching job and those players had been through a lot by having two coaching changes in their careers and their commitment to me as their coach and our staff was tremendous. Danielle and Traci said that we are going to have a great senior year and leave a mark on the program and I think that’s what they did. They were leaders who brought different things to the table, but the combination of the two was really good. They were humble everyday which is the best thing I can say about them. The way they lived every day on and off the court was something to be respected and we miss them.

Any changes to your approach as you enter your third season at Charlotte? I think that is the one thing that you learn quickly as a coach is that every year is different. Our first year obviously I thought that we had to establish as a staff how things were going to be run here at Charlotte. I think with that first year under our belt we all became more comfortable. Last year, we had some older players that understood what the expectations were and knew what every day was going to be like. It was very different in terms of our approach every day with the group. As you graduate two players and you bring in new ones, all of a sudden this year seems dramatically different. The one thing that I understand about coaching is that it is all about chemistry and how the players approach every day. It will take some time to figure out what this team’s personality is going to be but I am excited about the potential.

Juniors Kendria Holmes and Epiphany Woodson and freshman Jaquaria Forney all are from the City of Charlotte. What does it mean to have three players on the roster from the Charlotte area? It shows that Charlotteans feel that our University is a great choice for them. Playing for the 49ers is a choice that allows them to play closer to home and have their families watch them play. I think the missing piece has been for Charlotte area high school players to feel secure in the fact that they will be able to play at a high level of basketball, on top of getting a great education. I think that it is a tribute to our players that are in the program now and were in the past. I’m thrilled that Kendria, Epiphany and Jaquaria saw the vision that all of us have, and they want to come back here and represent the city and this University. What does the program need to do to take that next step forward which is advancing in the NCAA Tournament? At the beginning of every season you have goals of taking steps forward. Last year winning the A-10 Tournament and making the NCAA Tournament was obviously a huge step. I’m not so sure that you don’t have to spend a couple of years just getting to NCAA Tournament before you can advance. Obviously we would love to just jump to the Sweet Sixteen, but I feel it is definitely a process with the players and the coaches. I think the next step in the long-term vision is that going to NCAA Tournament has to become a regular occurrence. We have to get to the NCAA Tournament two or three years in a row and then all of a sudden you can stop being amazed by being there and start thinking about winning. So again, we are striving for consistency.

What are the team’s goals for the season? Each season is unique with different goals. Our first goal is to develop the chemistry that I saw in our team last year. That is a challenge and will always be, because each year the players are different and they bring along new challenges. I think we have been fortunate here that our whole coaching staff has remained intact. You have consistency in what you’re doing when your staff remains together and we have been extremely blessed to have all been here together for three years. Everybody’s goal is to win a conference championship and go to the NCAA Tournament, but we also have academic goals. I was really proud of our team last year. We had a 3.0 GPA as a team and that is a goal that we will always have as a team. Of course we want to finish in the top three in the A-10, make the NCAA’s, etc. But, I also think we need to take a step up in our non-conference schedule. If I had a specific goal it would be to continue to challenge ourselves against Top-25 programs and win some of those games. The conference has established itself nationally, and non-conference success makes a big difference.

What about strength of the Atlantic 10 conference which had eight postseason teams including three NCAA Tournament teams last season? I think we should have had four teams in the tournament last year, and the leagues’ performance in the NIT was a reflection of that. I am proud to be in the conference, and I believe that the best is yet to come for the A-10!

THOUGHTS FROM COACH KAREN ASTON

What are your overall thoughts on the 2009-10 schedule which features 13 teams that reached postseason play last season? I thought the first year I was here that our non-conference schedule was tough. However, I believe that we put together a schedule that could be the toughest so far. Part of that stems from the draw that we got in the Bahamas tournament which made our schedule very tough. Opening up on the road at East Carolina is never easy. Then, we play South Carolina at home and Duke on the road in the first ten days which will obviously be good for our team. We are going to have to take it one game at a time. Playing these teams will make us better and prepare us for A-10 play. Every step we take in the non-conference schedule helps our RPI and helps in gaining respect. Conference-wise I believe that every night has become a challenge. The biggest change since we entered the league is that the so-called “bottom half” has become tougher and no one can be taken lightly. It becomes a challenge, but one that I think we all welcome.

The 2010 Atlantic 10 Tournament will be played at the Show Place Arena in Upper Marlboro, Maryland. What are your thoughts on a neutral site for the A-10 Tournament? Well, if we can’t have it in Charlotte, this is the next best thing…HA! It was huge plus for our team to play the A-10 Tournament at home last year. However, it is a step in the right direction for our conference and the league coaches wanted that challenge. I think the players will like it because it will be a new site for them, and it’s neutral, but more than anything we want it to be a great student-athlete experience, which is what this is all about. What are your thoughts on the senior class (Erin Floyd, Jabrenta Hubbard, Aysha Jones and Ashley Spriggs)? The seniors are special people to me personally, first and foremost. I have a great deal of respect and love for this class. They were on that bubble here in my first year, where they could have chosen to go somewhere else and play because I wasn’t who they came to play for. They stuck it out with a great deal of pride and patience. They are a workhorse group and you won’t find four players with better work ethic, better morals and everything about them speaks of class. It’s hard to talk about each one of them individually because to me, they are a group. I admire the way they carry themselves and their commitment to being the best that they could be during their time spent at Charlotte. What are your thoughts on the juniors (Kelsey McAdoo, Shannon McCallum and Kendria Holmes)? First of all, Kelsey came in with the senior class, but she redshirted so she is a veteran as far as understanding how things work in the program. I have a great deal of respect for her fortitude because she has had several complications due to her high school injuries and has pressed on through it all. We need her to contribute to the team this year. We obviously will have a size disadvantage on most nights and she can really help us in that area. Kendria and Shannon are very talented and I think everybody saw what Shannon was capable of toward the end of last year. I think she began to change her approach in practice and in games. I have had the privilege of coaching some talented players and Shannon is right up there at the top with any of them. I am anxious to see Kendria in a game because she had been on the floor last year but it was just in practice. It should be fun to see how she takes the reins at the point guard position this year. She is a terrific passer and sees the floor unbelievably well. She will add a different dimension to our team because of her passing and creating ability.

What are your thoughts on the sophomore class (Rachelle Coward, Nicole Hargraves and Katie Meador)? This class obviously did not get a lot of playing time last year due to our veteran team. I have seen them mature from last year. They stayed here this summer and put in a lot of work in the gym. We need them to contribute this season. Nicole is expected to help us in the paint. I think that Katie really has matured a lot and hopefully will be able to contribute at the point guard position. Rachelle has the ability to stretch the defense because she can really shoot the basketball. She has gotten stronger and is in better shape. I expect this group to play a bigger role this year.

What are your thoughts on the newcomers (Epiphany Woodson, Amanda Dowe, Jaquaria Forney, Jennifer Hailey, Jessica Johnson)? First of all let me touch on Epiphany, who transferred here from the University of Miami. Epiphany is a Charlotte native and I couldn’t be more excited about her in a lot of ways. She came from a traditional high school power in Providence Day. She won a lot of basketball games there and is well known here in the community. I’m looking forward to seeing her grow as a basketball player. She is one of those players that saw a vision of what we are trying to do here and I am excited that she decided to come home and contribute to our program. As far as the freshmen are concerned I think the sky is the limit with this group. They are an extremely athletic group and all have different qualities they bring to the table. You will see that they have athleticism, length and quickness. Jaquaria Forney is another Charlotte native that chose to come here that committed early to us and never looked back. She had a lot of opportunities to go elsewhere, but she decided on Charlotte. She will be an early contributor at the guard position. She is an excellent defender and has the ability to create her own shot. Amanda and Jennifer are two players that will be thrown into the fire quickly. They both have a high-level of athletic ability in the paint but they will have some growing pains. I’m expecting tons from those two, but we all will have to be patient as they grow. As far as Jessica Johnson is concerned she is an unknown in regards to rankings because she is recovering from an injury during her junior year of high school. She has a tremendous upside because she is a great athlete. JJ actually jumped in the state track meet last year! All four of these players are long, athletic and fit great in our up-tempo system. Again, I repeat, the sky is the limit with this class!

What are fans going to expect to see when they watch us this year? We have a lot of new players on the team. If I had to guess, we are going to be a lot thinner across the board! When you see the freshmen you are going to want to feed them. Our up-tempo style of play will continue, however, my question is how frenetic the pace is going to have to be with this team and that depends upon the play of the guards. The difference may be in the way we play defensively. I believe we will press more, continue to run, and probably rebound by committee. Our success will be determined on the defensive end when it is all said and done.

Karen Aston is in her third season at the helm of the 49ers women’s basketball program. In her first season at Charlotte, she guided the 49ers to 18 wins and a berth in the WNIT. Of the 30 rookie head coaches in Divi-sion I, she was one of only five to lead their team to postseason play. In her second season at Charlotte, she helped the 49ers capture the 2009 A-10 Tourna-

ment title, which is the program’s first conference tournament title. The 49ers reached the NCAA Tournament for the second time in school history while winning 23 games in 2008-09. Aston became the seventh head coach in the 34-year history of the program on April 27, 2007. She came to Charlotte after spending 13 years coaching at the NCAA Division I level in the state of Texas. “In pursuing the best candidates to fill our vacancy, one name kept rising to the top of everyone’s list — Karen Aston,” said Charlotte Director of Athletics Judy Rose. “Her knowledge of the game is obvious. She has an excitement and intensity about her and she just lights up when she talks about X’s and O’s. I am confident that her energy and enthusiasm will carry over to her team. I am thrilled to have her leading the Charlotte 49ers women’s basketball program.” She spent the 2006-07 season as associate head coach at Baylor. She helped the Bears win 26 games and reach the second round of the NCAA Tournament. Prior to joining the Baylor coaching staff in 2006, she spent eight years as a member of Hall of Fame Coach Jody Conradt’s coaching staff at the University of Texas (1998-2006). She was associate head coach her last six seasons in Austin. While at Texas, she was the Longhorns’ recruiting coordinator and on the court she primarily worked with the defense and post players. During her eight seasons at Texas, the Longhorns posted a 173-83 record and made seven NCAA Tournament appearances, including two appearances in the Sweet 16 and a trip to the Final Four in 2003. In 2002-03, the Longhorns captured the Big 12 regular season and tournament titles and finished ranked number four in the final Associated Press (AP) poll. In 2003-04, Texas shared the Big 12 regular season title and finished ranked number five in the final AP poll. During her time as Texas’ recruiting coordinator, Aston played a vital role in signing 25 nationally recognized recruits. All eight of the recruiting classes that she helped attract were nationally ranked. Her final recruiting class (2005-06) at Texas was ranked number one in the nation by the All-Star Girls Report. In her last four years at Texas, she played an integral role in signing seven McDonald’s All-Americans and seven WBCA/Nike All-Americans. Two of those high school All-Americans (Tiffany Jackson and Erika Arriaran) were named national high school players of the year. Jackson went on to earn consensus national Freshman of the Year honors in 2003-04. Before joining the Texas coaching staff, she spent two seasons as an assistant women’s basketball coach at the University of North Texas (1996-98) and two seasons as an assistant at Baylor (1994-96). Before entering the collegiate coaching ranks, Aston was

recognized as one of the top high school women’s coaches in the South. She coached five years at Vi-lonia High School (1988-93) in Vilonia, Ark. and one year at Fort Smith Northside (1993-94) in Fort Smith, Ark. In 1993-94, she guided Fort Smith North-side to a 24-10 record and fifth place finish in Class AAAA. For her efforts that season, she was named the Arkansas Northwest Re-gion Coach of the Year. While at Vilonia, Aston was not only head basket-ball coach but also head cross country and track coach. In 1992-93, she was named the Arkansas Basketball Coach of the Year after leading Vilonia to a 36-1 record and a Class AA State Champi-onship. She guided the Vilonia cross country teams to state titles in 1991 and 1992. Aston is a 1987 gradu-ate of the University of Arkansas Little-Rock, where she received her bachelor’s degree in physical education. She played two seasons of standout basketball at Arkansas Little-Rock after transferring from Ouachita Baptist. A native of Ben-ton, Ark., Aston was a two-time first-team All-State selection at Bryant High School. She topped off her high school career by lead-ing Bryant to both the 1982 Arkan-sas State Cham-pionship (Class 4A) and the 1982 Arkansas overall State title.

What two National Championship Coaches said about Coach Karen Aston.Jody Conradt - Legendary former University of Texas Head Coach who won 900 games and is a member of the Naismith and Women’s Basketball Hall of Fames. Aston was a member of Conradt’s coaching staff at Texas for eight years.“She is the total package which makes her the perfect choice for Charlotte. She is a tremendous recruiter. After having her on my staff for eight years, I know that she really knows the game of basketball. She has the ability to put players in a position to be successful on the court.”

Kim Mulkey - Baylor Head Coach, who was named 2005 Big 12 Coach of the Year, as she guided Baylor to the 2005 National Championship. Aston was a member of Mulkey’s coaching staff at Baylor for the 2006-07 season.“I am very happy for Karen. It has been a goal of hers to become a head coach and I wish her much success. As I said when I hired her in 2006, I didn’t know how long we’d be able to keep her at Baylor because she’s ready to become a head coach. I am glad that she was a part of our program and I feel like we have cre-ated a lifelong friendship.”

Angela Ortega is in her third season as a member of the Charlotte coaching staff. She joined the 49ers coaching staff after spending 15 years as a member of the University of North Texas coaching staff. Charlotte head coach Karen Aston and Ortega both served on the same North Texas coaching staff from 1996-98. “It has been good to see her have fun with recruiting,” Aston said. “Angela does a tremendous job with the organization of ev-erything, which is exactly what I thought that she would do as far as that was concerned. She has done a really terrific job organizing and dictating what we have done in recruiting this year.”

Ortega had spent 15 years helping build North Texas into not only one of the top programs in the Sun Belt Conference, but a nationally recognized program before com-ing to Charlotte in 2007. As the recruiting coordinator at North Texas, she played an integral role in recruiting seven All-Confer-ence players including Sun Belt Conference Player of the Year Jalie Mitchell and Sun Belt Defensive Player of the Year Rosalyn Reades. In 2005, she was responsible for recruiting the best class in school history. She was not only in charge of recruiting but she was also responsible for coaching the guards, opponent scouting. She served as the liaison between the basketball program and the athletic academic center. She was the director of North Texas summer women’s basketball camps as well.

Prior to joining the coach-ing staff at North Texas, Or-tega spent the 1991-92 scho-lastic year as a tenth grade English teacher at Mabank High School in Mabank, Tex-as. She was an assistant coach for the basketball, volleyball and track teams at Mabank. Before Mabank High School, she spent one sea-son (1990-91) as a graduate assistant coach at her alma mater Northwestern State in Natchitoches, Louisiana. A Tyler, Texas native, Or-tega after a successful playing career at Northwestern State, graduated with a bachelor’s

She finished her career as the school’s 10th all-time leading free throw shooter. Ortega transferred to Northwestern State after two seasons at

Trinity Valley Community College. She helped Trinity Valley climb to number two in the national rankings. She earned Kodak All-District and All-Region honors as a sophomore after averaging 15 points and 7.3 rebounds per game on a team that went 26-5 on the season. “Being a part of the Charlotte 49er program has been a wonderful experience,” Ortega said. “It was an opportunity that presented itself at the right time in my life. We have very high expectations of our team and staff and none of that would be possible without the support from the administration and the community. This is truly a great place to be.”

Ken Griffin is in his third season as a member of the Charlotte 49ers coaching staff. He joined the coaching staff in 2007 after spending two seasons as an assistant coach at the University of South Carolina (2005-07).

“Ken is a unique personality,” Charlotte head coach Karen Aston said. “I think the best thing about our staff is the diversity in it as far as their personalities, Ken adds a light moment to every day with our staff. He has a very good repoire with our players on and off court. Ken has good basketball knowledge. When Ken first came to Charlotte, I did not know about his knowledge of the game and his ability to scout and prepare for games, so I think

he has added that dimension to our staff.” During his two years at South Carolina, the Gamecocks won 35 games and made two WNIT appearances, advancing to the third round of the 2007 WNIT. In his first season at South Carolina, he helped the Gamecocks win nine more games than the season before his arrival. At South Carolina, he worked primarily with the post players. His work with the post players played a major role in the two-year improvement at South Carolina. In 2005-06, his first season at South Carolina, the Gamecocks set single-season school records for blocked shots, field goal per-centage defense and scoring defense. He played an major role in helping forward Demetress

A d a m s earn SEC All-Freshman team honors and an invite to the USA Basketball U-20 national team tryouts in the summer of 2006.

Griffin has a been a well-known figure in re-cruiting circles for many years. Prior to joining the South Carolina coaching staff, he served as director of scouting for the Southeast Roundball Journal for a year. At the Southeast Roundball Journal, he was responsible for the evaluation of both regional and national talent for one of the nation’s lead-ing women’s recruiting and scouting services. He also served as tournament direc-

The 49ers captured the program’s first conference tournament title when they defeated Richmond 59-54 in Halton Arena for the 2009 A-10 Tour-nament title.

Postseason Tournament - The 49ers made their eighth-overall postseason tour-nament and their seventh-straight postseason tournament appearance. Charlotte made the program’s second-ever appearance in the NCAA Tournament and the first since 2003. In 2009, an Atlantic 10 record eight teams earned postseason tournament bids with three (Charlotte, Temple and Xavier) going to the NCAA Tournament. While Dayton, Duquesne, George Washington, Richmond and St. Bonaventure were selected to the WNIT. Last season, Charlotte played 12 teams that reached postseason play and the 49ers went 9-6 against those teams.

A-10 Tournament - Charlotte claimed the program’s first-ever league tourna-ment title and earned the school’s first automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament when the 49ers defeated Richmond, 59-54, in A-10 Championship game, March 9 in Halton Arena. Charlotte joined West Virginia (1989), George Washington (1992) and Virginia Tech (1998) as only the fourth team in A-10 history to capture the A-10 title in their first appearance in the Championship game. Charlotte also joined George Washington, Temple, Xavier and Saint Joseph’s as the only five teams currently in the A-10 to have captured an A-10 Tournament title. Charlotte set an A-10 Tournament record in three-point field goal shooting when they went 11-for-15 from beyond the arc (73.3%) against Duquesne in the Quarterfinals, March 7. The 49ers’ 81-57 win over Duquesne in the A-10 Tournament Quarterfinals (March 7) was Charlotte’s first-ever A-10 Tournament victory. The win also marked the 49ers first conference tournament victory since defeating Cincinnati, 63-46, in the first round of the 2005 C-USA Tournament which was also played in Halton Arena. Charlotte’s 24 point win over Duquesne was the 49ers third largest margin of victory in a Conference tournament game in the program’s history and the largest since Charlotte defeated Tulane, 69-44, in the 1993 Metro Conference Tournament. The 49ers 23 point win (73-50) over Temple in the A-10 Tournament Semifinals was the program’s fourth largest margin of victory in a conference tournament game.

“Certain Gerton” and “Automatic Abernathy”Lisa Gerton (left), still referred to by some as “Certain Gerton”, put together a record-setting streak of 31 straight free throws made during the 1994-95 season. Her mark for perfection stood until 2000-01, when Alicia Abernathy drained 33 in a row to take over the title as the program’s most consistent shooter. During her run, Abernathy tied the Conference USA record for free throw percentage in a game with an 11-for-11 night versus St. John’s.

On March 2, 1975, the idea of what is now the Atlantic 10 Conference was conceived. What started as an eight-school, men’s basketball-only affiliation has grown into a 14-university, 21-sport league that is universally hailed as one of the best conferences in the country. That growth and prominence is a direct result of the ideals and commitments of the member institutions of the Atlantic 10 - the University of Dayton, Duquesne University, Fordham University, The George Washington University, La Salle Uni-versity, University of Massachusetts, University of North Carolina at Charlotte, University of Rhode Island, University of Richmond, St. Bonaventure University, Saint Joseph’s University, Saint Louis University, Temple University, and Xavier Univer-sity. The 14 member institutions of the A-10 are united and strengthened by their diversity. Each is ex-traordinary in its educational mission, whether of a Catholic faith, a private university or a land grant institution. The varied pursuits of each member prove that there are many threads that weave the fabric for a great conference. The presidents and chancellors of Atlantic 10 institutions, in conjunction with Atlantic 10 Com-missioner Bernadette V. McGlade, have made a strong commitment to making the academic and athletics equation a successful one. Over the years, the league membership has strived to better recognize the academic accomplishments of its student-athletes. The Commissioner’s Honor Roll, which cites every Atlantic 10 student-athlete with a 3.5 grade point average or better, recognized 1,162 student-athletes in the Fall 2008 while 1,164 were named to the Spring 2009 Honor Roll. The league sponsors Academic All-Conference teams in each of its sports and honors one student-athlete per sport as the A-10 Student-Athlete of the Year. Moreover, the Atlantic 10 provides four postgraduate scholarship grants to qualified student-athletes. In 2000-09, 182 student-athletes earned Academic All-Conference recognition, while Charlotte’s Lamarra Currie, Christa Domin-ick of La Salle, St. Bonaventure’s Katelyn Murray and David Zenk of George Washington received postgraduate scholarship grants.

The Atlantic 10 Conference had 50 teams among the 767 Division I sports teams honored by the NCAA with public recognition awards for their latest multi-year Academic Progress Rate scores. In 19 of the 21 sports sponsored by the Atlantic 10, the league’s APR was at or above the conference aver-age nationally according to the most recent data released by the NCAA. Moreover, 75 A-10 teams attained a perfect score in the NCAA’s Gradu-ation Success Rate Report. The Atlantic 10 Conference, with a total population of nearly 74 million people within its geographic footprint of eight states and the District of Columbia, will crown champions in 21 sports this sea-son: baseball, men’s and women’s basketball, men’s and women’s cross country, field hockey, men’s golf, women’s lacrosse, men’s and women’s indoor and outdoor track & field, women’s rowing, men’s and women’s soccer, softball, men’s and women’s swimming & diving, men’s and women’s tennis, and women’s volleyball. 2008-09 REVIEW For the 15th time in Conference history and sixth since 2000, the Atlantic 10 Conference earned mul-tiple at-large berths to the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament as league champion Temple was joined by Xavier and Dayton in the field of 65. The A-10 was the only non-BCS conference to earn multiple at-large bids. Xavier advanced to the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament for the third time in six years and ended the year ranked 15th by ESPN/USA Today and 20th by the Associated Press. Off the court, Commissioner McGlade announced that Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, N.J., would serve as the site of the Atlantic 10 Men’s Basketball Cham-pionship in 2010, 2011 and 2012 and that the finals will be televised on CBS Sports for the first time in league history. In women’s basketball, Charlotte captured its first-ever A-10 Championship and was joined in the NCAA Tournament by Temple and Xavier. It marked the fourth time in five seasons that three teams from the Conference received NCAA berths. Dayton, Duquesne, George Washington, Richmond and St. Bonaventure garnered WNIT bids as an un-precedented eight A-10 teams represent the league in postseason play. Charlotte claimed its second consecutive A-10 women’s soccer championship and advanced to the second round of the NCAAs. Charlotte won its fourth-straight league title in men’s golf. Charlotte defended its women’s indoor and out-door track & field titles, while the 49ers’ men’s team also captured the indoor and outdoor crowns. In all, 464 teams have represented the Atlantic 10 Conference in postseason play since the 1976-77 campaign. Ta’Shia Phillips of Xavier garnered Associated Press honorable mention women’s basketball All-America honors and represented the nation as a member of the 2009 World University Games team. George Washington’s Jessica Adair was selected by the Phoenix Mercury with the 34th pick in the 2009 WNBA Draft. Calum Angus of Saint Louis was named to the NSCAA/adidas men’s soccer All-America first-team, while Temple’s J.T. Noone and Chris Salvaggione of Charlotte garnered second-team men’s soccer All-America distinction. Charlotte women’s soccer standout Hailey Beam was tabbed a third-team All-American.

ADMINISTRATION

JUDY ROSEDIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS Charlotte 49ers Director of Athletics Judy Rose is one

of the most successful and well-respected Athletics Directors in the nation. At the time of her appointment in 1990, she was just the third female to be put in charge of a Division I program. In 1999-2000, she became the first female to serve on the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Committee. She served a five-year term (2000-2004) on that committee. She also completed a term as 2003-04 President of the National Association of College Directors of Athletics (NACDA).

With the 49ers, she has overseen the 49ers moves from the Sun Belt Conference to the Metro Conference to Conference USA and onto the Atlantic 10 in 2005-06. She has overseen the 49ers growth into a program that for the first time is fully-funded at the NCAA level for athletic scholarships. She has helped raise monies for new athletic facilities, including the James H. Barnhardt Student Activity Center (Dale F. Halton Arena), the Miltimore-Wallis Athletics and Academic Training Center, the Irwin Belk Track and Field Center (Transamerica Field), the Wachovia Fieldhouse, the Short Game Golf Practice Facility at Rocky River Golf of Concord, N.C. and the Robert and Mariam Hayes Baseball Stadium. The 49ers will begin construction on their on-campus tennis facility in the spring of 2010. In all, she has helped develop nearly $50 million worth of athletic facilities which have enhanced playing venues, academic services, strength and conditioning programs, training and medical support. In all, these upgrades have improved the experience of each and every student-athlete, as a student and as an athlete. She has been instrumental in attracting national sporting events to Charlotte, including the 1994 Men’s Final Four, the 1996 Women’s Final Four, the 1997 AAU Junior Olympics and the 1999 and 2000 NCAA Division I Men’s Soccer College Cup. In 2008, the 49ers hosted the NCAA Div. I Men’s Basketball East Regional at Bobcats Arena. It is under her watch that the 49ers have expanded opportunities to include women’s soccer and men’s and women’s track. Her next step has been to lead the 49ers most aggressive push to add football to

the Charlotte 49ers program. Winning approval from both the Chancellor and UNC Charlotte Board of Trustees, the 49ers have pushed forward with plans to start the program in 2013. In addition, it has been under Rose’s leadership that the 49ers athletics program has enjoyed its best success. The men’s basketball program has copped nine NCAA bids under her reign and men’s soccer has enjoyed five bids, including a trip to the 1996 National Semifinals. Baseball, women’s basketball, women’s soccer and golf have all posted multiple NCAA Tournament bids while the men’s tennis team earned its first-ever bid. The 49ers have also landed their first-ever individual NCAA qualifiers in men’s and women’s indoor and outdoor track and field and cross-country. Recent highlights include four straight A-10 titles for the women’s indoor track, women’s outdoor track and golf programs as well as a program-best third-place finish at the 2007 NCAA Men’s Golf Championship. With that top four finish, Charlotte has boasted a “Final Four” team in both decades that Rose has served as A.D. (‘90’s - M. Soccer, 1996; ‘00’s - Golf, 2007). Since Rose became A.D., 14 of the school’s 16 athletic programs have either won a league title or been represented in NCAA play, or both. Along the way, Rose has reaped her share of awards, most notably the 2001 NACDA Southeast Region Athletic Director of the Year Award. Other awards have included the Pegasus Award in 1999, the 1996 Bob Quincy Award by the Charlotte Sportsman Club, and the 1996 Charlotte Regional Sports Commission “Sixth-Man” Award for city-wide athletic achievement. She was selected the 1996 Woman of the Year in Charlotte and was named the 1997 Citizen of the Year by the University Chamber of Commerce. In 1986, she became the first female inducted into the Blacksburg (S.C.) Hall of Fame and she received her 25-Year Service Award from UNC Charlotte in 2000. More recently, she was inducted into Winthrop’s Athletics Hall of Fame, was named one of the city’s Top Businesswomen by The Business Journal and was recognized with the Judy Wilkins Rose endowment as part of the University YMCA’s Y Pathways program. Rose graduated with her B.S. degree in physical education in 1974 from Winthrop University, where she lettered in basketball. She received her Master’s in physical education from Tennessee in 1975 while serving as an assistant coach to Pat Summitt. A native of Blacksburg, S.C., Rose and husband Ken were married July 19, 1986. They live in Denver, N.C.

DR. PHILIP L. DUBOISCHANCELLOR

A native of Oakland, California, Philip L. Dubois attended the University of Califor-nia, Davis, where he graduated in 1972 with an undergraduate degree in political science, earning election to the Phi Beta Kappa and Phi Beta Phi honor societies. He then earned master’s (1974) and doctoral (1978) degrees in the field from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Dubois began his academic career in

1976 at the University of California, Davis. Over the next 15 years, he rose through the faculty and administrative ranks to full profes-sor and held various administrative posts, including associate vice chancellor for academic affairs. In 1991, Dubois was recruited to UNC Charlotte, where he spent the next six and a half years as provost and vice chancellor for academic affairs. Dubois was credited with drafting a strategic academic plan, leading the development of the university’s first comprehensive campus-wide plan for information technology, and initiating programs to better serve nontraditional adult students. Under his leadership, UNC Charlotte also planned and launched its first doctoral programs. In 1997, Dubois was named president of the University of Wyoming. In that role, he led the development of comprehensive academic, support services, and capital construction plans for the

campus; stimulated a growing volume of new capital construction projects and building renovations; expanded UW’s role in statewide economic development; and improved the recruitment and retention of students. During his eight-year tenure, state and federal legislative support increased significantly, while private gifts to the university more than quadrupled. He was honored in 2004 by the Council for Advancement and Support of Education (CASE) with its District VI Chief Executive Leadership Award. On March 18, 2005, Dubois was named UNC Charlotte’s fourth chancellor and assumed that role on July 15. In his first four years, Dubois has focused his efforts on building the University’s visibility and support in the Charlotte region; long-range planning for an expected enrollment of 35,000 students by the year 2020; comple-tion of key capital construction projects (including a major new building to be located in Center City Charlotte); and improvement in the efficiency and effectiveness of critical business processes. Dr. Dubois and his wife, Lisa Lewis Dubois, have three children Logan, 26, an associate with an executive placement firm in Ra-leigh; Taylor, 23, an information technology associate with Bank of America; and Ali, 18, a sophomore at West Virginia University. They are the first family to occupy the chancellor’s official campus residence, Bissell House.
