CALIFORNIA Golden Bears

2008 SEASON OUTLOOKNEW STANDARDS THE

TARGET FOR 2008 GOLDEN BEARS

The 2008 California volleyball team looks to set new standards for a program that is one of the fastest

rising programs in the nation. For some, a trip to the NCAA championship semifi nal match is an accomplishment both in and of itself. But for the Golden Bears, such a trip is but a stepping stone to an even bigger and brighter future. However, one thing Cal will not do is take its prior achievements for granted.

“Our team now knows what it takes to achieve a high level of success,” said head coach Rich Feller. “After getting a taste of it last season, we are going to hit the court with a newly heightened sense of focus and determina-tion. The great thing about our team is that the veterans also know not to take success for granted and that will be a key factor as the identity of this squad comes together.”

When the 2007 Bears defeated Iowa State in the NCAA regional semifi nal, it advanced further in the post-season than any Cal team in program his-tory. Not satisfi ed with their successes, the Bears did themselves one better by knocking off defending NCAA Champion Nebraska, in the Wisconsin Re-gional to earn a trip to the NCAA championship semifi nal match against eventual NCAA Champion Penn State, in Sacramento, Calif.

Feller believes the 2008 Bears are a unique blend of experience and youth; and of calculated precision and raw athletic talent. This year, Cal opponents will bear fi rst-hand witness to the manifestation of a returning roster that boasts a junior outside hitter who received AVCA All-America honors, a senior class poised in leadership, a sophomore set-ter who came within six assists of breaking a single-season school record and a fresh-man class that brings with it two Volleyball Magazine Fab 50 Selections.

Leading the charge on the court for the Bears will be junior outside hitter Hana Cutura (Zagreb, Croatia). As a sophomore, Cutura put up impressive numbers, lead-ing the team with 485 kills (4.22 kpg) and 566.5 points (4.92 ppg). She also poured in a team-high 37 service aces while add-ing 214 digs to her fi nal stat line. Cutura’s postseason performance earned her recog-nition as the NCAA Tournament Wisconsin Regional MVP.

Joining Cutura on the outside is senior outside hitter/middle hitter Morgan Beck(Coto De Caza, Calif.) who brings an abun-dance of experience to the court, having

appeared in 94 matches over her three years with the Bears. As a junior, Beck posted 265 kills and 114 total blocks. Beck has earned honorable mention status on the All-Pac-10 team the last two years and enters her fi nal season as Cal’s ninth all-time leader in career blocks.

Although Beck’s senior leadership will be invaluable to a young squad of Bears, she is not alone at the top. Senior middle hitter Kat Reilly (Plano, Texas) returns after post-ing strong numbers as a part-time starter in 2007. Reilly’s 116 total blocks (1.36 bpg) and .325 hitting percentage (147k, 44e, 317att) each ranked second only to since-departed Ellen Orchard. Rounding out the senior class is outside hitter Am’ra Solomon (Los Angeles, Calif.). Although Solomon is limited in court experience, she is loaded with lead-ership ability and will have much to offer to her teammates after a successful stint this summer with the USA A2 Team.

Feller believes the leadership from his senior class will be critical to the success of the 2008 Bears. “Our seniors are three very different individuals,” said Feller. “Hope-fully, that allows for the underclassmen to have a variety of personalities and styles to draw from as this team builds its identity. I believe the diversity of this senior class is

CALIFORNIA Golden Bears

one of the major strengths to the make-up of our roster.”

Setting the pace on the court for these Bears will be sophomore setter Carli Lloyd(Bonsall, Calif.). Thrust into the starting role early in her freshman campaign, Lloyd proved her mettle by completing her fi rst season with 1,550 assists, six away from breaking the Cal single-season record held by Samantha Carter. In addition to setting her teammates up, Lloyd also notched 93 kills, 234 digs and 111 total blocks. Lloyd was named to the NCAA Wisconsin Regional All-Tournament team and also received honors as the Outstanding Setter in two preseason tournaments. Lloyd’s phenom-enal freshman season earned her a spot on the Pac-10 All-Freshmen team, and she is ready to take on an even larger role as the on-court leader.

“Even though she is just a sophomore, Carli has already taken on such a big lead-ership role as the setter” said Feller. “She is out there in the trenches and she commands the attention of her teammates. She is truly one of the best communica-tors you will fi nd on the col-legiate volleyball court.”

On the defensive side of the ball, Cal will look to junior libe-ro Kristen Kathan (Moraga, Calif.) for guidance and con-sistency. Kathan’s quickness helped her post Cal’s ninth-best single-season mark for digs with 414 in 2007. Away from the court, Kathan’s aca-demic prowess was rewarded with an honorable mention to the Pac-10 All-Academic Team. Sophomore defensive specialist/libero Meagan Schmitt (Kentfield, Calif.) will also compete for play-ing time. Last but not least amongst returning players is junior middle hitter Mindi Wiley (Sonoma, Calif.). Wiley came on strong towards the end of the season, sharing time with fellow middle hitter, Reilly. Wiley’s .307 hitting percentage (85k, 30e, 179att) ranked third on the team as she set new career high’s in nearly every statistical category.

This season, the Bears welcome fi ve newcomers to the team. Topping the list of fresh faces is phenom outside hitter Tarah Murrey (El Cerrito, Calif.). Murrey comes to Cal as one of 2007’s most highly sought-after high school recruits in the country. Her impressive resume includes selection to the Volleyball Magazine Fab 50 and recognition as the 2008 Gatorade California

Player of the Year. Also a Fab 50 selection, freshman middle hitter Shannon Hawari(Plano, Texas) looks to step in and battle for immediate playing time.

to compete for playing time right from the outset of camp. Roe, Obermeyer and Gor-man are three extremely hard-working and athletic players and we couldn’t be happier that they each chose to come to Cal. They are each going to bring something special to our team.”

This season, Feller looks to guide the Bears to a school-record seventh straight postseason appearance. In just his 10th year at Cal, Feller has solidifi ed his name in the record books as the most successful coach in Cal volleyball history and hopes to improve on a phenomenal year in which his team produced two All-Americans and fi nished with a 26-8 record (12-6 Pac-10, fourth place). The squad’s success garnered him recognition as the ASICS/Volleyball Magazine National Coach of the Year. He knows maintaining a high level of production won’t be easy however.

“It’s more diffi cult to repeat success than it is to achieve it the fi rst time” said Feller,

“We want to make sure that our team stays focused and remembers how hard they had to work in order to achieve their successes. The Pac-10 will be a great test for our team. The conference schedule truly prepares our team for all the NCAA Tourna-ment can throw at us.”

Cal will open the season by hosting two tournaments at Haas Pavilion. The Bears welcome St. John’s to Haas Pavilion on Aug. 29 to kick off the Cal Molten Classic before they entertain DeP-aul, James Madison and UC Riverside in the Golden Bear Invitational on Sept. 5-6.

Taking to the road for the fi rst time in 2008, the Bears will face Notre Dame, Cal Poly and host Minnesota at the Diet Coke Classic Invita-tional in Minneapolis, Minn. Next, the Bears will make the drive down Interstate-5 for the Crowne Plaza Volleyball Classic (Sept. 19-20).

Cal opens the Pac-10 slate by hosting Oregon and Oregon State on Sept. 26 and

27. The Bears will face all three California schools on consecutive weekends, fi rst traveling to Stanford for the Big Spike on Oct. 19 before going to Los Angeles to take on UCLA and USC on Oct. 24 and 25. The Big Spike comes to Haas Pavilion on Nov. 14 before Cal completes the season with a Thanksgiving sandwich in Oregon for a Nov. 26 date with the Beavers and a Nov. 28 meeting with the Ducks.

Joining Murrey and Hawari in the fresh-man class are setter/defensive specialist Ashley Roe (Campbell, Calif.), setter Kristin Obermeyer (Campbell, Calif.) and defensive specialist/libero Katherine Gor-man (Los Altos, Calif.).

“I think we have one of the best recruiting classes in the country” said Feller. “Murrey and Hawari have resumes that speak for themselves and we are looking for them

RICH FELLERHead Coach

10th Year at Cal (24th overall)

Rich Feller, in his 10th season with the Golden Bears, is undoubtedly the most successful women’s vol-leyball coach in California history. Since he fi rst stepped on campus in 1999, Feller has been able to craft the Golden Bears into a Pac-10 contender and a national powerhouse. The facts speak for them-selves – a school-record six consecutive postseason appearances, four 20-win seasons in the past six years, three NCAA round of 16 appearances, six All-America selections and most recently, an appearance in the NCAA semifi nals. Under Feller’s leadership, the Bears have not only made the NCAA tour-nament six straight times, they have won six consecutive NCAA fi rst-round matches.

Feller’s achievements on the court have not gone unnoticed as he was honored as Volleyball Magazine’s 2007 National Coach of the Year. Since leading Cal to its fi rst NCAA appearance in 13 years in 2002, Feller has fi rmly established the Bears as a top-tier team in the toughest volleyball conference in the nation – the Pac-10. Last season, he led Cal to its fi rst-ever appearance in the NCAA semifi nals after the Bears defeated Iowa State and then-defending NCAA champion Nebraska to claim the Wisconsin Regional. As one of the fi nal four teams standing, Feller coached Cal in a heated battle against even-tual champion Penn State, falling 3-0 to the Nittany Lions at Arco Arena in Sacramento,

Calif. The Bears fi nished the season with a 26-8 overall record, 12-6 in the Pac-10 for fourth place and a school-record No. 4 ranking in the fi nal AVCA poll of collegiate women’s volleyball teams.

Feller’s guidance brought his players some well-deserved attention as well, as se-nior outside hitter Angie Pressey earned her second selection to the AVCA All-America team and sophomore outside hitter Hana Cutura garnered her fi rst selection as a member of the second team. Cutura also received MVP recognition in the NCAA Wis-consin Regional. Feller’s direction helped

the Bears set new school records for total blocks in a single season (454)

and hitting percentage in a single match (.702 vs. UNC-Wilmington on Sept. 1).

In 2006, he led Cal to its second-ever NCAA regional after the

Bears defeated LSU and host Cal Poly, respec-tively, in the NCAA fi rst and second rounds in San Luis Obispo, Ca-lif. Feller then brought his squad to the NCAA Regional in Austin, Texas, where Cal lost three close games to No. 2-ranked

Stanford to con-clude the year 22-10 and ranked No. 13 in the fi nal

postseason ap-pearance.

taking the Bears to the postseason, he has generated excitement in the local volleyball community by enabling Cal to host the NCAA fi rst and second rounds at Haas Pavilion during the 2003 and 2004 campaigns. His players are closely connected to the com-munity through their commitment to camps and clinics offered throughout the year. This summer, Feller coordinated the hosting of the USA Women’s Indoor Volleyball team and a scrimmage for the public in its fi nal week before departing for the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, China.

Cal’s 2003 campaign was especially sweet for the veteran coach as Feller guided the Bears to a 25-7 record and the school’s fi rst-ever NCAA round of 16 berth with victo-ries over Saint Mary’s and Michigan. Cal had the best single-season winning percentage (.781) in school history, captured a since-tied school-record 12 Pac-10 victories and posted back-to-back 20-win seasons for the fi rst time since 1981-83. The Bears also won 16 consecutive matches to start the year, defeated Stanford for the fi rst time since 1982 and earned their then-highest national ranking ever (No. 5 on Oct. 13, 2003).

The accomplishments of the Bears’ coach and his staff did not go unnoticed as Feller was named both the 2003 AVCA Pacifi c Region Co-Coach of the Year and Pac-10 Coach of the Year. He was the fi rst Cal volleyball coach to garner regional coach of the year honors, and was the fi rst Bear mentor selected for league coaching honors since Chris Stanley was NorPac Conference Coach of the Year in 1982.

sistant to Taras Liskevych (USA Olympic coach from 1985-96 and current Oregon State coach) at the University of the Pacifi c in Stockton, helping the Tigers to second, fourth and fi fth-place national fi nishes in his three years with the program.

Growing up in Palo Alto, Feller already had ties to the Bay Area before arriving at Cal in 1999. His father, David, earned his Ph.D. at Cal and his mother, Bernice, was a Cal undergraduate.

“The opportunity to coach at Cal and to have the challenge of competing in the Pac-10 Conference was a dream come true,”

said Feller. “Any coach who is involved in college volleyball would relish the chance to coach in the Pac-10 and to come to Cal. One of my goals was to coach in the Pac-10. Working at Cal is one of the best jobs in the nation.”

Feller, 57, who earned his bachelor’s de-gree in recreation administration from San Diego State in 1973, lives in the Montclair District of the Oakland Hills with his wife, Stacey. He has three children – Evan (24), Ashleigh (22) and Ryan (20); and a stepson, Brad Bertolet (22).

Before joining the Utah staff, McShane was an associate head coach at the Uni-versity of New Mexico from 1987-00. In 11 years in Albuquerque, he helped guide the Lobos to a 189-127 record, two conference championships and six trips to the NCAA tournament.

In the summer of 2007, McShane was an assistant coach for USA Volleyball’s National A2 team, coaching former Cal standout Angie Pressey. During the summer of 2002, he also served as the head coach for the USA National A2 Team. In the summer of 2001, he was the head coach for the Inter-mountain Volleyball Association (IVA) High Performance Team that toured Europe.

In 1996, McShane was named an assis-tant coach of the USA Women’s National team at the Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colo. While with the U.S. National team, McShane designed and ran practice sessions, did video analysis of Team USA and other major teams in the world, and prepared scouting reports on U.S. opponents.

McShane’s coaching background also includes assisting current USA Women’s National Indoor Volleyball team coach “Jenny” Lang Ping with the Yaohan Inter-national Volleyball Team in 1996. The team was comprised of the best American and Russian players who competed against the Chinese and Cuban National teams in cities throughout China.

Additionally, McShane served as an as-sistant coach at Brigham Young University from 1980-82. He is a member of the USAV Coaches Accreditation Program Cadre (CAP Level III), and each year, he runs numerous clinics throughout the U.S., teaching other college, high school and junior coaches the fundamentals of volleyball.

CHRIS BIGELOWAssistant Coach10th Year at Cal

A key component and the veteran of the Cal volleyball coaching staff is 10th-year assistant and chief recruiting coordina-tor Chris Bigelow, a former assistant at Wisconsin and Texas. Bigelow was hired by Rich Feller as a Cal assistant coach in January of 1999. She has since been instrumental in securing recruiting classes ranked among the top 10 in the nation for the Golden Bears, including a No. 5 ranking in 2005 and a school-best No. 3 ranking by PrepVolleyball.com in 2006.

“To recruits around the country, Chris Bigelow is the voice of Cal volleyball, and to club and college coaches, she is one of the top recruiters in the nation,” said Feller. “No one works harder than Chris. Besides being a great recruiter, she is also an outstanding training coach with a special interest in video tape analysis.”

Bigelow built an impressive array of coach-ing credentials before arriving at Cal. She was an assistant coach for Bill Neville at Montana State from 1978-81, before taking over as head coach of the Bobcats from 1981-83. Bigelow then became an assistant to current USC volleyball coach Mick Haley at Texas from 1984-91, helping lead the Longhorns to seven conference champion-ships, three fi nal four appearances and one national championship in 1988.

From 1991-93, Bigelow worked as a volleyball TV color commentator for the Southwest Conference and University of Texas radio.

MATT McSHANEAssistant Coach

Fourth Year at Cal

Matt McShane joined the Cal volleyball staff on Feb. 2, 2005, and made an immedi-ate impact as he helped the Golden Bears achieve a school-record fourth consecutive NCAA postseason appearance. McShane and his fellow Bear coaches then took it a step further in 2006 as Cal advanced to an NCAA regional for only the second time in school history. Last season, his offensive and defensive schemes combined to give Cal the edge over such national powers as Iowa State and defending NCAA champion Nebraska to put the Bears into the NCAA championship semifi nal match for the fi rst time in program history.

The veteran coach arrived in Berkeley after spending four years as an assistant coach at the University of Utah. In 2004, the Utes went 24-7 overall and 13-1 in league action and captured a share of their fi rst-ever Mountain West Conference title.

“I am very pleased to have Matt McShane as part of our staff,” said Rich Feller. “Matt is known around the country as one of the top training coaches in college volleyball. He has years of experience in high-level volleyball, collegiate and international. Matt and I have known each other for years and spent 15 months together working as as-sistant coaches for USA National team in 1997 and 1998. He is the perfect fi t for this position as we continue striving for excel-

GOLDEN BEARS REACH 2007 NCAA FINAL FOUR

At approximately 9:45 on the night of Saturday, Dec. 8, 2007, Cal All-American outside hitter Angie Pressey put down her 20th kill of the match to defeat Nebraska, sending the Golden Bears to their fi rst NCAA national semifi nal match in school history. The stunning 3-0 win over the defending NCAA champion Cornhuskers secured the Wisconsin regional crown for Cal and launched players, coaches and fans alike into a celebratory frenzy. All-American outside hitter Hana Cutura earned Wisconsin regional MVP honors, and was joined on the regional all-tournament team by Pressey and setter Carli Lloyd.

Just one night earlier, this Cal squad had already begun drafting the newest chapter in the Bear history books. A 3-0 victory against the Cyclones of Iowa State put the Bears past the NCAA regional semifi nal for the fi rst time ever.

The Bears concluded the most successful campaign in the program’s history with their appearance in the national semifi nal where they fell to eventual national champion Penn State in Sacramento, Calif. The 26-8 overall record and unforeseen success of these Bears earned the team a No. 4 ranking in the fi nal AVCA poll, and saw head coach Rich Fellerhonored as the 2007 Asics/Volleyball Magazine National Head Coach of the Year.

SIMPLY THE BEST

There is no other way to aptly describe America’s top public university. There is no other way to describe one of the elite academic settings in

the world – especially one that also includes one of America’s most successful athletic departments.

The University of California blends the best of all worlds. Overlooking the scenic San Francisco Bay and ranked as the nation’s top public university by the U.S. News and World Report, the fl agship campus of the state of California also features an athletic program that annually fi nishes among the leaders in the Direc-tors’ Cup standings, which rates the overall success of America’s athletic departments.

Cal attracts what many believe to be the fi nest ap-plicant pool in the United States. The university features a diverse student-body population. The University of California offers 300 degree programs, and 35 of the school’s 36 graduate programs are ranked among America’s top 10. Cal’s 35 programs among the top 10 is No. 1 among all universities in the country, as is its 32 “distinguished” programs, as rated by the National Research Council.

The library is ranked third in the country, as judged by Association of Research Libraries with 9 million volumes in 18 campus libraries.

The faculty features seven Nobel Laureates, 128 members of the National Academy of Sciences, 16 MacArthur Fellows, 83 Fulbright Scholars, three Pulitzer Prize winners and more Guggenheim Fellows (139) than any other university in America.

The San Francisco Bay Area is a major metropoli- tan area of approximately six million people and one of the most scenic regions in the United States.

The Bay Area includes the major cities of San Francisco and Oakland, as well as Berkeley, home of the world-renowned University of California. Just south is the city of San Jose and the Silicon Valley, home to many of the world’s high-tech companies. The Bay Area also lies within easy driving distance of the high Sierra resorts of Lake Tahoe and Yosemite, the Monterey/Carmel pen-insula, the world famous Napa wine country, and the spectacular Mendocino Coast.

Everyone knows “The City” - San Francisco - from countless photographs, movies and television shows that capture its magic. It is a city built on a series of more than 40 hills, offering panoramic views of every kind. The hub of a nine-county complex and the fi nancial and insurance capital of the world, San Francisco has a resident population of about 740,000. San Francisco is situated on a 46.6 square-mile peninsula bounded on the west by the Pacifi c Ocean, on the north by the Golden Gate strait, and from north to east by the San Francisco Bay. The City has been named the world’s top city twice and the top city in the U.S. in 17 of the last 18 years by Condé Nast Traveler.

The San Francisco Bay is spanned by two landmarks, the Golden Gate and San Francisco-Oakland Bay bridges, and graced by four islands: Alcatraz, Angel, Yerba Buena and Treasure. The area is easily navigated by car, BART (Bay Area Rapid Transit), bus or ferry, making it easily accessible to all.

Located across the Bay Bridge from San Francisco, Oakland is a city of 400,000, jam-packed with exciting attractions, stimulating arts, and an ideal

climate. Oakland’s charm exceeds its man-made won-ders, as its tumbling hills, vast forests, hiking and riding trails, beautiful lakes and numerous parks provide a natural escape for those who prefer nature over an urban environment.

Berkeley, just a 12-mile drive from San Francisco, is situated on 18.8 square miles with a population of 103,000 people. A study in contrasts, Berkeley is a small town with a big-city character. With its world-renowned university, global population and rich diversity of cultural arts, Berke-ley refl ects and affects the rest of the country.

Sports fans can see it all in the Bay Area - professional football (San Francisco 49ers, Oakland Raiders), profes-sional basketball (Golden State Warriors), professional baseball (San Francisco Giants, Oakland Athletics), professional hockey (San Jose Sharks), and outstanding collegiate competition.

TUTORIAL PROGRAMThe Tutorial Program promotes and

enhances students’ academic skills and progress by providing individual tutoring, group workshops, study groups, credit courses and intensive special programs. The Athletic Study Center has between 50-60 tu-tors on staff per semester to guarantee that students receive the best possible support. Tutorial sessions are also offered at night enabling student-athletes to receive help after practices when they have more time to devote to studying.

SPECIAL PROGRAMSIn addition, the Athletic Study Center offers

a Summer Bridge adjunct program designed to help ease the transition from high school to college. The primary components for the pro-gram include writing and math workshops, an advising workshop, study skills seminars and an evening tutorial program.

Another special program offered is Peer Advising. Peer advisors provide academic and campus life guidance for new intercol-legiate student-athletes. They are selected from junior and senior student-athletes who assist in developing programs to further ad-dress the needs of student-athletes.

ATHLETIC STUDY CENTER STAFF(From left): Michael Thompson, Chris Lane, Derek Van Rhennen, Tony Mirabelli, Stephen Johnson, Richard Deshong, Melanie Moonsamy, Quame Patton, and Cassidy Raher.

One of the real success stories for the University of California is the development and growth of a com-

prehensive academic support program for its student-athletes - the Athletic Study Center.

In 1984, campus offi cials and Athletic Department administrators decided that a greater emphasis needed to be placed on helping Cal student-athletes with their aca-demic pursuits. The Athletic Study Center was thus born and charged with developing an academic support program geared to the needs of NCAA Division I student-athletes. It was a signifi cant development for an aca-demically oriented institution such as Cal to recognize the special needs required for a modern student-athlete’s success both as an athletic competitor on the fi eld of play and in the classroom.

PROGRAM FOR STUDENT-ATHLETES

The Athletic Study Center, which is housed within the Division of Undergraduate Educa-tion, is the tutorial and academic support pro-gram for the nearly 1,000 student-athletes at Cal. Centrally located in the Cesar Chavez Student Center, the program provides a spa-cious and comfortable arboretum for quiet

study, separate classrooms for individual and group tutorials, and a computer lab for word processing and required course work.

Geared around the understanding of the amount of time student-athletes must de-vote to practice, training, physical therapy

and team travel, the program creates an environment where students can cultivate good study habits, receive individual or group tutoring and obtain counseling from academic advisors.

ADVISING PROGRAMThe Advising Program offers a broad

range of services to meet the unique needs of student-athletes, including assistance in understanding and complying with Uni-versity, college and NCAA requirements, developing time management skills and resolving personal issues unique to stu-dent-athletes.

During the freshman year, advisors typically try to help student-athletes make a successful academic transition from high school, while during the sophomore year, they assist student-athletes in making de-cisions on appropriate majors and fi elds of study. For the fi nal two years, advisors take more of an exiting approach, ensuring that proper academic progress is being made towards graduation while referring juniors and seniors to areas on campus that can help with career planning.

HAAS PAVILION

The Walter A. Haas Jr. Pavilion has made a powerful statement

about the stature of athletics at Cal. Along with its most im-portant function - a state-of-the-art volleyball and basketball arena with capacity doubled to 11,877 - it adds space for many men’s and women’s intercol-legiate programs, recreational and community activities, and athletic administration.

An innovative plan had been developed to build a shell around the original Harmon Gym structure. The exterior complements the former Har-mon Gym’s distinctive archi-tecture. The roof of the Haas Pavilion was raised to make room for a bowl-shaped arena, a novel design that increases capacity on all four sides, yet creates good views of the court from every seat.

The Pavilion’s in-the-round seating gives every visitor a direct sight line to the action on the court. The 11,877-seat arena includes up to 1,500 chairback seats at premium locations and 3,000 seats for students. The court will continue to be named in honor of Pete Newell, legendary coach of Cal’s 1959 NCAA championship team.

The Pavilion will be the focal point for Cal’s many athletic, recreational and cul-tural activities. Inside the Pavilion’s east entrance, a large lobby will lead visitors to a new team store. Added concession areas and concourses will accommodate larger crowds.

On the concourse level, a Spectator Club provides a spacious yet intimate meeting spot for special friends of Cal. A new plaza at the Pavilion’s east entrance will reach from Bancroft Way to Strawberry Creek, creating a new campus gateway and an ideal location for outdoor gatherings.

Construction began on the project in June 1997. Harmon Gym, which opened in 1933 and had a capacity of 6,578 seats, was home to Cal volleyball and basketball for 65 seasons.

Cal volleyball had the distinction of being the fi rst-ever athletic event in the new Haas Pavilion when the Bears hosted Arizona State Oct. 15, 1999 (attendance: 3,125). The volleyball match was prior to the men’s and women’s basketball team’s Midnight Madness, which celebrated the opening of

the basketball season. Cal volleyball also had the honor of hosting the fi rst-ever NCAA championship event at Haas Pavilion, as the Bears hosted the 2003 NCAA fi rst and second rounds, defeating both Saint Mary’s and Michigan, 3-0, to advance to the round of 16 in Honolulu, Hawaii. Cal again hosted the NCAA fi rst and second rounds in 2004, defeating Pacifi c, 3-2, before falling to Saint Mary’s, 3-2.

Golden Bear student-athletes are privileged to be supported by one of the top medical staffs in college

athletics, along with some of the most mod-ern training and rehabilitation equipment in the country. The comprehensive program features state-of-the-art facilities as well as a staff of acclaimed practitioners of all areas of sports medicine.

In addition to facilities within Haas Pavil-ion, Cal athletes also use University Health Services, which oversees and supervises sports medicine services to all injured or ailing Golden Bear athletes. The University Health Services is recognized as one of the most comprehensive ambulatory health cen-ters in the country. It is housed in the Tang Center, which provides access to physician clinics, laboratory services, X-ray and other ancillary services such as sports nutrition and counseling.

In the Haas Pavilion, Cal volleyball enjoys a new training facility, the Paul F. White Sports Medicine Center.

The athletic medicine area is supervised by Bill Coysh, Ph.D., who is involved in the day-to-day management of the program as well as being actively engaged in sports psychology.

The staff features specialists from the fi elds of orthopedic surgery, family medicine, internal medicine, physiatry and podiatry. The medical staff, with their diverse back-grounds and areas of expertise, has vast experience treating injured athletes on every level of competition, including Olympic and professional athletes.

Cal’s athletic training staff boasts 13 certi-fi ed athletic trainers and 30 student athletic trainers. The staff tends to the day-to-day health care needs of Cal athletes in 27 different sports, including the evaluation, treatment and rehabilitation of injuries and illnesses. The trainers also provide coverage at home and away athletic contests, and practices are staffed on a full-time basis.

Cal’s comprehensive health care program is designed to meet the every need of today’s student-athlete competing for the school.

An integral part of Cal volleyball is the strength and conditioning program under the direction of Hank Behrens,

who utilizes a comprehensive approach to coaching the team. The program’s phi-losophy is geared towards helping each student-athlete achieve the highest level of athletic development, by teaching how the components, strength, speed, and fl exibility fi t together.

The enhancement of these components results in maximizing their force production thus improving their power on the court. Motivating, educating and helping to reach maximum athletic development is the pri-mary focus of the Cal program.

The training regimen at Cal is a year-round process that emphasizes speed, strength and fl exibility. With closely monitored work-outs that involve a great deal of individual instruction and attention, student-athletes are taught the correct techniques and pro-gressed to increase their ability perform at their peak during competition.

Out of all the components fl exibility is a key. It is essential for proper lifting, improving running mechanics needed for acceleration and deceleration, and developing greater explosiveness, all which are essential for playing volleyball.

Athlete workouts are closely monitored by a conditioning staff that works in col-laboration with the entire sports medicine team (doctors, athletic trainers, physical

therapists, nutritionists, etc.) to ensure the health and safety of all of student-athletes. In this way, Cal’s strength and conditioning program is a vital component linking the “full circle” of a student-athlete’s physical development from conditioning through rehabilitation and re-conditioning.

The Mary and Frank J. Schlessinger

Weight Training Complex in Haas Pavilion features six Olympic platforms, more than 4,000 pounds of Olympic bars and bumper plates, and an array of aerobic and an-aerobic equipment. The picturesque facility overlooks Evans Diamond baseball fi eld and Edwards Track Stadium and is adjacent to the Paul F. White Sports Medicine Center.

PACIFIC-10 CONFERENCE

Entering the 2008-09 season, the Pacifi c-10 Conference continues to uphold its tradition as the “Conference of Cham-

pions.”® Pac-10 members have claimed an incredible 159 NCAA team titles over the past 18 seasons, for an average of more than eight championships per academic year.

Even more impressive is the breadth of the Pac-10’s success, as those 159 team titles have come in 26 different men’s and women’s sports. The Pac-10 has led the nation in NCAA Championships 42 of the last 48 years and fi nished second fi ve times.

Spanning nearly a century of outstanding athletics achievement, the Pac-10 has captured 372 NCAA titles (259 men’s, 113 women’s), far outdistancing the runner-up Big Ten Confer-ence’s 217 titles.

The Pac-10 captured 13 NCAA titles in 2007-08 to lead the nation, fi nishing just one shy of the all-time Division I record of 14 titles, set by the Pac-10 in 1996-97. It should be noted that the Pac-10 total does not include CALI-FORNIA’s national championship in men’s rugby or STANFORD’s national championship in women’s synchronized swimming, as they are not counted as NCAA titles. The Pac-10 led the nation with the most NCAA titles in women’s sports with eight.

Individually, the Conference has produced an impressive number of NCAA men’s indi-vidual champions as well, claiming 1,162 NCAA individual crowns.

Since the NCAA began conducting women’s championships 27 years ago, Pac-10 members have claimed at least four national titles in a single season on 19 occasions. Overall, the Pac-10 has captured 113 NCAA women’s crowns, easily outdistancing the SEC, which is second with 72. Pac-10 members have dominated a number of sports, winning 20 softball titles, 18 tennis crowns, 13 of the last 18 volleyball titles, 12 of the last 19 trophies in golf and 10 in swim-ming and diving.

Pac-10 women ath-letes shine nationally on an individual basis as well, having cap-tured an unmatched 511 NCAA individual titles, an average of more than 18 cham-pions per season.

The Pac-10 spon-sors 11 men’s sports and 11 women’s sports. Additionally, the Conference is a member of the Moun-tain Pacific Sports Federation (MPSF) in four other men’s sports and two other women’s sports.

PAC-10 WOMEN’S VOLLEYBALL

There is little argument that the Pacifi c-10 Conference is the nation’s strongest in the sport of women’s volleyball. Since the beginning of the NCAA Volleyball Cham-pionships in 1981, a Pac-10 institution has won the national title 13 times, and fi nished as runner-up on an additional 12 occasions.

Only one conference in the nation has sent each of its members to at least one NCAA Tournament - the Pac-10. The con-ference has routinely sent four or more representatives each season to the NCAA Tournament, topped by eight participants in 2002. Five NCAA Championship matches have featured Pac-10 teams battling each other for the national crown.

Pac-10 volleyball history dates back to 1986, when the Conference began sponsoring women’s athletics. Since then, over 85 Pac-10 athletes have garnered All-America honors from the American Vol-leyball Coaches Association (AVCA). Those individuals have collected over 140 All-America certifi cates, including eight AVCA National Player of the Year winners.

Cal has made 11 NCAA Tournament appearances (1982, ‘83, ‘87, ‘88, ‘89, ‘02, ‘03, ‘04, ‘05, ’06 and ‘07), making the round of 16 for the fi rst time in school history in 2003, and again in 2006 and 2007. The trip in 2007 yielded the best result yet as the Bears advanced to the NCAA champion-ship semifi nal for the fi rst time in school history. Cal also fi nished fi fth in the 1991 National Invitational Volleyball Champion-ship (NIVC), and was 10th at the 1981 AIAW National Championship.
