If you have any questions about NCAA rules, please contact Elizabeth Rabb at (864) 597-4090, the Wofford website at woffordterriers.com and click on ‘Compliance,’ or the NCAA at www.ncaa.org.

What is a Representative of Athletics Interests (Booster/Donor)? All alumni, friends, and employees of the College are categorized as ‘representa-tives of athletics interest.’ The NCAA stipulates that once an individual has been identified as a ‘representative’ or “booster/donor” he/she retains this status forever even if the individual is no longer associated with the athletics program.

Wofford College, established in 1854, is an independent liberal arts college located in Spartanburg, S.C. It offers bachelor’s degrees in 26 major fields of study, and is well known for its programs leading to graduate and professional studies. Affiliated with the United Methodist Church, the college is committed to quintessential undergraduate education within the context of values-based inquiry. Wofford College consistently finds itself as a benchmark for what higher education should be now and in the future, and how students can find an exciting and fulfilling undergraduate experience that also is a good value both in financial investment and in value-added by that educational experience. The college has scored high on the National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE), which measures the level of academic challenge, active and collaborative learning, student-faculty interaction, enriching educational experiences, and a supportive campus environment. Wofford can be found in numerous college guides that provide perspectives from a variety of sources. Among those are U.S. News & World Report’s “America’s Best Colleges,” The Princeton Review’s “Best 376 Colleges;” The Fiske Guide to Colleges, The (Yale) Insider’s Guide, and Peterson’s Colleges for Top Students. Forbes.com ranked Wofford as one of “America’s Best Colleges” in 2011, the highest rated institution in South Carolina. In its November 2010 issue, Kiplinger’s Personal Finance magazine ranked Wofford among the nation’s best private college values, at number 31. Wofford consistently lands on “best value” lists in various other national college guides and publications. In U.S. News & World Report’s 2010 “America’s Best Colleges,” Wofford was included in “Great Schools, Great Prices,” a listing of 31 liberal arts colleges. Wofford ranks ninth in the country in the percentage of undergraduates receiving credit for studying abroad, according to Open Doors 2010, a report published by the Institute of International Education (IIE).

The Village, Wofford’s apartment-style housing for its senior students, has earned a number of national recognitions. The Michael S. Brown Village Center opened in the fall of 2011 with loft-style apartments along with a grand galleria, deli restaurant and market. It is anchored by the Mungo Center for Professional Excellence. Wofford was named to the President’s Higher Education Community Service for 2010, presented by the Corporation for National and Community Service, an independent federal agency tasked with fostering an ethic of volunteerism and service in America. Wofford also was included in the 2009 Guide to Service-Learning Colleges & Universities, highlighting the college’s programs to encourage student engagement. Wofford’s entire 175-acre campus is a national arboretum, which was named the Roger Milliken Arboretum at Wofford College in honor of the late longtime trustee and benefactor. More than 5,000 trees have been planted on the Wofford campus since 1992.

Learning Communities, an interdisciplinary approach to learning that links courses in two or more departments through a common theme. The Novel Experience, a first-year reading and writing program that offers an introduction to the ac-ademic rigors of Wofford while familiarizing students with the Spartanburg community. The Creative Writing Concentration, a pro-gram led by outstanding published faculty writers that provides additional opportunities for students to hone their creative writing skills, earn coveted prizes and be-come published writers themselves. Presidential International Scholar, an oppor-tunity for an outstanding, intellectually gifted student to visit other parts of the world researching specific aca-demic areas of interest.

Wofford offers distinctive learning opportunities that set it apart from other liberal arts colleges. They provide students with meaningful study-abroad experi-ences, exciting and socially useful service opportunities, career-related and experiential learning possibilities, interaction with great academians from across the world, and exposure to renowned authors, artists, and business and professional leaders. Such “focal point” programs include, but are not limited to: The Interim, a January term that encourages students and faculty to explore new interests both on and off campus. The Bonner Scholar Program, a service-learn-ing scholarship program that places deserving students in volunteer positions throughout the community. The Success Initiative, a leadership and schol-arship program that offers practical, project-based ex-perience. The Vocational Discernment and Pre-Minis-terial Program, a counseling and mentoring approach to helping students make personal decisions regarding further study and careers in the ministry. Environmental Studies provides a creative and supportive learning environment that helps students pursue their goals in the rigorous and challenging pro-gram. It operates both on Wofford’s campus and at the new Glendale Shoals Environmental Studies Center at Glendale, S.C. The property where the center is located borders 19 acres of protected green space along the Lawson’s Fork Creek. Neuroscience, a program in which students ex-amine the nervous system and its regulation of behav-ior through an experimental approach, offered jointly by the Departments of Psychology and Biology. Computational Science, a fast-growing in-terdisciplinary field that is at the intersection of the sciences, computer science and mathematics, involves learning to store, retrieve, process and visualize massive amounts of information in web-accessed databases.

THE RICHARDSON BUILDING The home of the Wofford College Athletic Department is the Richardson Physical Activities Building. The facility includes offices for the administration, football, basketball and other sports on the second floor. Also included on the second floor is an aerobic dance room and weight room with machine and free weights along with a variety of cardio machines. Locker rooms for football, men’s and women’s basketball, men’s and women’s soccer and a training room are located on the first floor. Wofford alumnus and Carolina Panthers owner Jerry Richardson made a $1 million donation in 2008 that was used for enhancing the Richardson Building. Numerous improvements were made in the facility to ensure that it is one of the most advanced athletic facilities in the nation. Enhancements to the Richardson Building include new paint and carpet in the entire facility. The coaching and administration suites have been reconfigured to provide better reception areas. Football and men’s basketball offices are outfitted with a new video system, including computers, editing software and large-screen monitors. This new system is similar to those being used by the NFL and NBA. Inside the Harley Room, a new audio/video system was installed to handle the variety of events held in the room. New displays for academic honors, Southern Con-ference honors and the Hall of Fame are a part of the project. Additional murals and photos compliment the building and give it a fresh look. In addition, the fitness facilities have been upgraded as well. Nearly $100,000 worth of new equipment was added to supplement the current selection of treadmills and elliptical machines. The cardio area features six flat panel televisions for viewing while working out. The fitness area is used by the entire student body at Wofford.

The City’s origins predate the Revolutionary War. Spartanburg was named for a unit of American Revolu-tion forces called the “Spartan Rifles” who helped defeat the British at the Battle of Cowpens in 1781, under the leadership of General Daniel Morgan. The town of Spartanburg was incorporated in 1831 and later as a city in 1880 by the 13 Original States and Tennessee. During this time Spartanburg was booming due in large part to the rapidly expanding textile indus-try. In the 1870s, Spartanburg became a railroad “hub city,” with mainline railroads extending from Magno-lia Street depot in all directions, taking passengers and freight to Charleston, Augus ta, Atlanta, Asheville, Charlotte and points beyond. As many as 90 trains per day could be seen and heard operating in Spartanburg during the golden age of the American railroad, 1900-20. During the 1920s, Spartanburg built South Caro-lina’s first municipal airport and claimed the state’s first commercial radio station (WSPA). Its leader ship in the state was reflected by the election of several residents as governor. Thousands of U.S. soldiers bound for overseas service in World Wars I and II trained at camps in Spartanburg. The post headquarters for Camp Wadsworth (1917-19) was located at the present site of WestGate Mall, and the Camp Croft (1940-45) was located south of the city.

THE HUB CITYTHE HUB CITY

Much of that military reservation has become Croft State Park. After World War II, Spartanburg made a con certed ef-fort to promote its location at the junction of Interstates 85 and 26 to international business. One of the greatest successes of this campaign was the development of the BMW manufacturing center near the Greenville-Spar-tanburg Airport. Spartanburg’s downtown, which always has been anchored by the campuses of Wofford and Converse Colleges, has been undergoing a major revival since the mid-1990s. In addition to the corporate headquarters for Denny’s, Advance America, QS-1 and several other companies, the city has acquired a magnificant public library, the Marriott Hotel at Renaissance Park and most recently, the Chapman Arts Center and the USC Upstate George Dean Johnson School of Business. The area sur-rounding Morgan Square gradually is redeveloping with a variety of interesting restaurants and urban apart-ment-style housing. Throughout the 20th century, textile manufac turing

companies formed the backbone of the Spartanburg economy. The most significant of these companies still in operation is internation ally respected Milliken & Company. Blessed by geography and climate as well as by energetic and well-educated citizenry, Spartan burg is emerging as one of the centers of a 21st century metro-plex that extends along the South Carolina portion of the I-85 corridor.

REEVES TENNIS CENTER The John E. Reeves Tennis Center serves as the home of the men’s and women’s tennis programs at Wofford College. The facility was named after the late Mr. Reeves who was a valued friend to the Wofford community. A giant in the textile industry, Reeves was superintendent of the Reeves Brothers’ Mill in Woodruff, S.C. He later assumed the duties of an officer and the director of the corporation. In 1967, he was named the company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Reeves was a member of the Wofford College Board of Trustees from 1974 through 1979. He served on the finance and co-educa-tional study committees. Under his leadership, the Reeves Founda-tion was established to support many charitable causes, including The Campaign for Wofford: An Investment in People. Mr. Reeves received many honors, including an honorary doctorate of law degree from Clemson University in 1963 and the doctorate of science degree from Wofford in 1984. He was named the New York Trade’s Textile Man of the Year in 1970. The Reeves Tennis Center stands in honor of the contributions to Wofford and the sur-rounding communities Reeves made throughout his lifetime. The facility has 11 championship quality courts. It contains men’s and women’s locker rooms, as well as a lounge that enters onto a large viewing deck overlooking the courts. Located adjacent to the middle of the Wofford campus on Evins Street, the Reeves Tennis Center opened in 1992.

Rod Ray is in his 14th year as the head tennis coach at Wofford College. He also served as the Terriers’ head women’s coach for eight years until the 2007-08 season. Ray took over the Wofford tennis teams in 2000, three years after the transition to Division I, and took a struggling tennis program and transformed it into a reputable program that improves every year. As a coach, Ray’s team has continually improved their record nearly every year.

During the 2012-13 season, Ray’s squad posted an overall record of 3-15 and 1-9 in the Southern Conference. Four of his players earned spots on the Southern Conference Spring Academic All-Conference Team, while six earned SoCon Academ-ic Honor Roll. He also had one All-Conference player in Rob Galloway who earned second team honors. The 2011-12 squad posted an overall record of 6 -12 and 5-5 in the Southern Conference. Two members of the squad earned spots on the SoCon Spring Academic All-Conference Team, while nine earned SoCon

Academic Honor Roll honors. Coach Ray’s 2010-11 team finished with an 8-13 overall record and a 4-6 standing in the Southern Conference. Ray’s most successful year was in 2008-09, when he led his team to a 13-11 record and a 7-4 standing in the Southern Conference. The 2008-09 team was the only men’s team in the Southern Conference to earn special recognition from the NCAA for being in the top ten percent in their sport with regard for out-

standing academic achievement (APR). The program had earned this recognition four years in a row. In addition, the squad was also recognized by the NCAA for having outstanding sports-manship. In 2009, they won a national award by the NCAA ITA Ethics and Infractions Commit-tee for exemplifying outstand-ing sportsmanship, character, and ethical conduct in the true spirit of competition. In his 12 seasons at Wofford, Ray has led six players to All-Southern Conference recognition including: Lee Porter (2003), Kent Ball (2004), Chris Barlow (2006), Andrew Stubbs

(2005-08), Alan Donald (2009), and Tinus Van Wyk (2009). One of Ray’s most successful players, Andrew Stubbs, finished his career in 2008 with four straight All-Southern Confer-ence accolades. Stubbs was the first Terrier men’s player to earn league honors more than once. He joined former women’s player, Ellen Rogers ’06, as the only Wofford tennis players in school history to receive All-SoCon honors all four years. Ray also coached George Kernoodle to a South-ern Conference Freshman of the Year award in 2007. Ray has led his team to Southern Conference tourna-ment appearances eight of the past nine seasons, taking his program as far as the semi-fi-nals in 2008. Ray came to Wofford from the Topspin Racquet and Swim Club in Lexington, S.C., where he served as the tennis director for nearly 10 years. He has been a prominent fixture in South Carolina tennis, serving as coach for the South Carolina Junior Davis/Federation Cup Team, USTA Junior Player Development Program, Zonal Coach, and as president of the South Carolina Tennis Profes-sional Association. In 1998, Ray was named South Carolina Ten-nis Association Professional of the Year. Certified by the USPTA, he has obtained a Professional 1 rating. Each summer he runs the Rod Ray Tennis Camp at Wofford, bringing in youth from across the Southeast. Ray earned a bachelor of science degree in political science and a masters degree in political science from East Tennessee State in 1987, where he played on the Buccaneer

a hISTORY OF WOFFORD cOllEgE TENNIS

Historical Notes: Tennis arose on the Wofford College campus in the fall of 1889. The club consisted of 16 members which included a President, Tresurer, Manager, 3 instructors, and a “keeper of the keys.” The object of this club was to introduce and perpetuate tennis at Wofford. Quickly, the club became more of a school-wide organization consisting of members of the faculty as well as students. Wofford’s first recorded tennis match, held on March 19, 1890, was a 3-1 win

over Tryon. By 1920, Wofford Tennis became a team sport. There was no tennis team from 1942-43 to 1945-46 due to World War II.

The City’s origins predate the Revolutionary War. Spartanburg was named for a unit of American Revolu-tion forces called the “Spartan Rifles” who helped defeat the British at the Battle of Cowpens in 1781, under the leadership of General Daniel Morgan. The town of Spartanburg was incorporated in 1831 and later as a city in 1880 by the 13 Original States and Tennessee. During this time Spartanburg was booming due in large part to the rapidly expanding textile indus-try. In the 1870s, Spartanburg became a railroad “hub city,” with mainline railroads extending from Magnolia Street depot in all directions, taking passengers and freight to Charleston, Augus ta, Atlanta, Asheville, Char-lotte and points beyond. As many as 90 trains per day could be seen and heard operating in Spartanburg dur-ing the golden age of the American railroad, 1900-20. During the 1920s, Spartanburg built South Caro lina’s first municipal airport and claimed the state’s first com-mercial radio station (WSPA). Its leader ship in the state was reflected by the election of several residents as gov-ernor. Thousands of U.S. soldiers bound for overseas service in World Wars I and II trained at camps in Spartanburg. The post headquarters for Camp Wadsworth (1917-19) was located at the present site of WestGate Mall, and the Camp Croft (1940-45) was located south of the city. Much of that military reservation has become Croft

State Park. After World War II, Spartanburg made a con certed ef-fort to promote its location at the junction of Interstates 85 and 26 to international business. One of the greatest successes of this campaign was the development of the BMW manufacturing center near the Greenville-Spar-tanburg Airport. Spartanburg’s downtown, which always has been anchored by the campuses of Wofford and Converse Colleges, has been undergoing a major revival since the mid-1990s. In addition to the corporate headquarters for Denny’s, Advance America, QS-1 and several other companies, the city has acquired a magnificant public library, the Marriott Hotel at Renaissance Park and most recently, the Chapman Arts Center and the USC Upstate George Dean Johnson School of Business. The area sur-rounding Morgan Square gradually is redeveloping with a variety of interesting restaurants and urban apart-ment-style housing. Throughout the 20th century, textile manufac turing companies formed the backbone of the Spartanburg

economy. The most significant of these companies still in operation is internation ally respected Milliken & Company. Blessed by geography and climate as well as by energetic and well-educated citizenry, Spartan burg is emerging as one of the centers of a 21st century me-troplex that extends along the South Carolina portion of the I-85 corridor.

The Southern Conference, which begins its 93rd season of intercollegiate competition in 2013, is a national leader in emphasizing the development of the student-athlete and in helping to build lifelong leaders and role models. The Southern Conference has been on the forefront of innovation and originality in developing creative solutions to address issues facing intercollegiate athletics. From establishing the first conference basketball tournament (1921), to tackling the issue of freshman eligibility (1922), to developing women’s championships (1984), to becoming the first conference to install the 3-point goal in basketball (1980), the Southern Conference has been a pioneer. The Southern Conference is the nation’s fifth-oldest NCAA Division I collegiate athletic association. Only the Big Ten (1896), the Missouri Valley (1907), the Pac-12 (1915) and the Southwestern Athletic (1920) conferences are older in terms of origination. Academic excellence has been a major part of the Southern Conference’s tradition. Hundreds of Southern Conference student-athletes have been recognized on Capital One Academic All-America and all-district teams. A total of 20 Rhodes Scholarship winners have been selected from conference institutions, including Wofford volleyball player Rachel Woodlee, who earned the honor last year.

The Conference currently consists of 11 members in five states throughout the Southeast and sponsors 19 varsity sports and championships that produce participants for NCAA Division I Championships. The Southern Conference offices are located in the historic Beaumont Mill in Spartanburg, S.C. A textile mill that was in operation from 1880 until 1999, Beaumont Mill was renovated in 2004 and today offers the league first-class meeting areas and offices as well as a spacious library for storage of the conference’s historical documents.

MEMBERSHIP HISTORYOn Feb. 25, 1921, representatives from 14 of the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association’s (SIAA) 30 members met at Atlanta’s Piedmont Hotel to establish the Southern Intercollegiate Conference. On hand at the inaugural meeting were officials from Alabama, Alabama Polytechnic Institute (Auburn), Clemson, Georgia, Georgia School of Technology (Georgia Tech), Kentucky, Maryland, Mississippi A&M (Mississippi State), North Carolina, North Carolina State, Tennessee, Virginia, Virginia Polytechnic Institute (Virginia Tech) and Washington & Lee. Dr. S.V. Sanford of Georgia was chosen as acting chairman and N.W. Dougherty of Tennessee was named secretary. The

decision to form a new athletic conference was motivated by the desire to have a workable number of conference games for each league member. With 30 schools in the SIAA by the early 1920s, it was impossible to play every school at least once during the regular season and many schools went several years between playing some conference members. In addition, in 1920, the SIAA voted down proposed rules that an athlete must be in a college a year before playing on its teams and refused to abolish a rule permitting athletes to play summer baseball for money. Play began in the fall of 1921, and a year later, six more schools joined the fledgling league, including Tulane (which had attended the inaugural meeting but had elected not to join), Florida, Louisiana (LSU), Mississippi, South Carolina and Vanderbilt. VMI joined in 1925 and Duke was added in 1929. By the 1930s, membership in the Southern Conference had reached 23 schools. C.P. “Sally” Miles of Virginia Tech, president of the Southern Conference, called the annual league meeting to order on Dec. 9, 1932, at the Farragut Hotel in Knoxville, Tenn. Georgia’s Dr. Sanford announced that 13 institutions west and south of the Appalachian Mountains were reorganizing as the Southeastern Conference. Members of the new league included Alabama, Alabama Polytechnic Institute, Florida, Georgia, Georgia School of Technology, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Mississippi A&M, University of the South, Tennessee, Tulane and Vanderbilt. According to the minutes of the meeting, Dr. Sanford stated that the division was made along geographical lines. Florida’s Dr. J.J. Tigert, acting as spokesman for the withdrawing group, regretted the move but believed it was necessary as the Southern Conference had grown too large. The resignations were accepted and the withdrawing schools formed the new

The Southern Conference office is located in the refurbished Beaumont Mill in Spartanburg, less than a mile from the Wofford campus.

league, which began play in 1933. The Southern Conference continued with membership of 10 institutions, including Clemson, Duke, Maryland, North Carolina, North Carolina State, South Carolina, Virginia, VMI, Virginia Tech and Washington & Lee. By 1952, the Southern Conference included 17 colleges and universities. Another split occurred when seven schools – Clemson, Duke, Maryland, North Carolina, North Carolina State, South Carolina and Wake Forest – departed to form the Atlantic Coast Conference, which began play in 1953. The revamped Southern Conference included members The Citadel, Davidson, Furman, George Washington, Richmond, VMI, Virginia Tech, Washington & Lee, West Virginia and William & Mary. A third major shift occurred in 2012-13, when five members announced their departures and three schools were added. College of Charleston announced its decision to leave for the Colonial Athletic Association following the 2012-13 season, while Appalachian State (Sun Belt), Davidson (Atlantic 10), Elon (Colonial) and Georgia Southern (Sun Belt) announced they would depart following the 2013-14 campaign. At the Southern Conference’s 2013 spring meetings, the league officially extended invitations to former members East Tennessee State and VMI, as well as Mercer, to join the league for 2014-15. Today, the league continues to thrive with a membership that includes 11 institutions and a footprint that spans five states: Alabama, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee. Current league members are Appalachian State, The Citadel, Davidson, Elon, Furman, Georgia Southern, UNCG, Samford, Chattanooga, Western Carolina and Wofford.

CHAMPIONSHIP HISTORYThe first Southern Conference Championship was the league basketball tournament held in Atlanta in 1922. The North Carolina Tar Heels won the tournament to become the first recognized league champion in any sport. The Southern Conference Tournament remains the oldest of its kind in college basketball. Commissioner Germann spearheaded the Southern Conference’s expansion to include women’s athletics during the 1983-84 season. That year, league championships were held in volleyball, basketball and tennis. The SoCon declares champions in 10 men’s sports – football,

soccer, cross country, basketball, indoor track and field, outdoor track and field, wrestling, baseball, tennis and golf – and nine women’s sports – soccer, volleyball, cross country, basketball, indoor track and field, outdoor track and field, tennis, golf and softball.

Wofford won the 2003, 2007, 2010 and 2012 SoCon Football Championships.

Wofford won the 2009 Men’s Soccer Regular Season and Tournament Championships.

THE CAROLINA PANTHERS The Carolina Panthers have held training camp at Wofford since their inaugural season in1995. The camp provides Wofford tremendous national exposure and visibil-ity. Media members that visit Wofford during the five-week camp include ESPN, Fox Sports Net, USA Today and Sports Illustrated. Local print and television media from markets including Columbia, Charlotte, Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill, Asheville and Greensboro/Winston-Salem are on campus on a daily basis. According to SI.com’s Tim Layden, “as I like to think of it: Training Camp Heaven. Wofford is 70 miles west of Charlotte on I-85, and presents all the reasons why there is something special about taking the team on the road for camp. Three pristine, Bermuda-grass fields with a stand of tall pines on two sides and a steep hillside -- where fans sit and watch -- on another. Fans, many of them young boys and girls, lined up along the fence, getting autographs after practice. It’s a scene straight out of football’s past.”
