THE UCONN STORY
LOCATION
The University of Connecticut’s
main campus is located in Storrs,
about 30 minutes from Hartford,
the state’s capital city. UConn is also
within driving distance of Boston,
New York City and Providence. The
University has regional campuses at
Avery Point, Stamford, Torrington,
Waterbury and West Hartford.
UConn’s Health Center in
Farmington and Schools of Social
Work, and Law in the greater
Hartford area complete the
University’s wide range of high quality programs in a number of ideal
locations.
STUDENT PROFILE
UConn students enjoy a diverse and exciting
campus life in Storrs.
Founded in 1881, the University of
Connecticut enrolls more than
26,000 students representing nearly
every state in the nation and more
than 100 countries. Increasingly,
record numbers of high-achieving
students from diverse backgrounds
are making UConn their school of
choice. Since 1997, UConn’s freshman and minority enrollments have
risen dramatically as SAT scores for
incoming students have soared
upward. During this same period,
several hundred high school valedictorians and salutatorians have joined
the student body. These impressive
increases in every measure of student quality signal a boost in the student population eligible to participate in UConn’s nationally recognized honors program.
The University of Connecticut
maintains a strong tradition of student involvement, which includes
more than 300 clubs and organizations that offer opportunities to participate in everything from cultural
enrichment to current recreational
trends. UConn’s Study Abroad

21ST CENTURY UCONN
A REMARKABLE
TRANSFORMATION
UConn is renewing, rebuilding and enhancing its campuses through an unprecedented
$2.3 billion, 20-year state investment in the
University’s infrastructure.
UCONN
2000/21st Century UConn is the most ambitious publicly financed university building
program in the country. It’s an initiative the
New York Times reports as being “a building boom that would be the envy of most
university presidents.” The UCONN
2000/21st Century UConn program reflects
a vision of a dynamic institution. Now in its
10th year, the program has invigorated the
University’s living and learning environment, helped advance faculty research and
stimulated public and private investment.
This transformation revitalizes the
state’s future by providing the means for the
University to attract high achieving students,
The 21st Century UConn initiative was signed into law during ceremonies held at South Campus
on August 26, 2002. The $2.3 billion building program to continue the remarkable transformation
of the University of Connecticut was approved two weeks earlier by the General Assembly.
A new Chemistry Building was one of the first projects completed in the UCONN 2000 project.

high quality faculty and funding from both
grants and private donors. Before the landmark program, Connecticut was a state with
one of the highest ratios of students leaving
the state for college. Today, there has been a
dramatic reversal of this trend leading to
unprecedented interest from both in-state
and out-of-state students.
The infrastructure initiative has already
resulted in the completion of more than 100
projects,
including
the
Chemistry
Building—one of the best-designed buildings in the world according to the
International Architecture Yearbook. Other
projects include the School of Business, the
modern
Biology/Physics
Building,
Information Technologies Engineering
Building, the Agricultural Biotechnology
Laboratory and the construction of residence communities such as the Hilltop
Apartments, Charter Oak Apartments,
Hilltop Suites, South Campus and Husky
Village. Renovations to numerous facilities,
including the Babbidge Library, Wilbur
Cross Building and the College of Liberal
Arts and Sciences have also been instrumental in transforming the University.

21ST CENTURY UCONN
Forthcoming projects to be made possible by
UCONN 2000/21st Century UConn include a $300 million expansion to the UConn Health Center that will
include a state-of-the art medical research facility with
30 high-tech laboratories. The Storrs campus will benefit from enhancements that include new facilities to
replace the Monteith and Arjona liberal arts facilities
and the Torrey Life Sciences Building. Additions to the
Benton Museum, Psychology Building, Storrs Hall and
the School of Fine Arts will also continue to reshape the
University. The quality of a UConn education will
improve throughout the state with renovations to the
UConn Law School and the regional campuses as well.
Thanks in large part to these forward thinking initiatives, the University is enjoying remarkable success in
student recruitment and retention, attracting world-class
scholars and securing significant research funding. The
cranes that fill the skyline over UConn’s campuses are
indicative of a truly remarkable success story in
American public higher education and suggest there are
still great things ahead as the University ascends into the
top ranks of public higher education in the nation.
The new Hilltop Apartments at UConn offers students modern living conditions in a
campus environment.
Modern classrooms and laboratories help make the educational experience at UConn among the finest in the country.
The new UConn Co-Op offers the University community a first-rate
bookstore, café, convenience store and general shopping.

PRESIDENT PHILIP E. AUSTIN
U
niversity of Connecticut President
Philip E. Austin has led the school
through a period of unprecedented academic and physical growth. Dr.
Austin became the thirteenth President of
the University of Connecticut at the beginning of the academic year in the fall of
1996.
As chief executive of the University,
Dr. Austin has overseen the management
and implementation of a $2.8 billion infrastructure renewal and improvement program, including the $1 billion UCONN
2000 program approved by the State of
Connecticut in 1995, the $1.3 billion 21st
Century UConn program signed into law in
2002 and extending through 2015 and additional funding from other public and private
240
sources.
Dr. Austin’s commitment to academic
excellence has led to increases in student
quality and diversity as UConn has become
the school of choice for high achieving students. Since 1995, the freshman class in
Storrs has grown from just over 2,000 students to nearly 3,200, a 59% increase. At
the same time, minority freshman enrollment is up 74%, average SAT scores for
incoming freshmen have risen 54 points
since 1996 and nearly 500 valedictorians and
salutatorians have enrolled at UConn. The
University’s Board of Trustees’ enrollment
goal of 25,000 by fall 2005 was reached in
the fall of ‘02, three years ahead of schedule. Since 1999, U.S. News and World
Report has ranked UConn the top public
university in New England and now among
the top 25 in the nation.
“Campaign UConn”, the University’s
six-year capital campaign launched by
President Austin exceeded its $300 million
fundraising goal when it concluded in June of
2004. Personal financial contributions of historic proportions coupled with record numbers of individual gifts are propelling
UConn’s most successful fundraising campaign.
A strong advocate for achievement in
the classroom and laboratory as well as the
playing field, Dr. Austin has celebrated
numerous athletic championships as well as
the individual accomplishments of hundreds of student-athletes at UConn. He
played a vital role in the passage of legislation that led to the construction of
Rentschler Field that became the home for
University of Connecticut football in the
fall of 2003. The UConn Club honored him
with its Crystal Award in the spring of 2003.
He recently began a term on the NCAA
Division I Board of Directors that runs
through April 2007.
Prior to his appointment at UConn, Dr.
Austin was chancellor of the University of
Alabama System, president of Colorado
State University, chancellor of the Colorado
State University System, provost and vice
president for academic affairs and professor
of economics and finance at Bernard Baruch
College in New York City. He was previously director of the interdisciplinary doctoral
program in public policy at George
Washington University in Washington, D.C.
From 1974 to 1977, Dr. Austin was
HEW Deputy Assistant Secretary for
Education in Washington, D.C. During the
latter part of this assignment, he also served
as Acting Assistant Secretary for Education.
He served as an Economist in the Director’s
Office of the U.S. Office of Management
and Budget from 1971 to 1974.

TOP-10 REASONS TO ATTEND UCONN
1. RANKED THE TOP PUBLIC UNIVERSITY IN NEW ENGLAND
1
For the sixth consecutive year, U.S. News and World Report ranked UConn the
top public university in New England and among the very best public universities in the nation.
And the 2004 Fiske Guide to Colleges called UConn, “a comprehensive
university offering a vast selection of academic programs as well as opportunities to study abroad, participate in research, or join one of the more than
300 organizations or clubs available.” Bolstered by this national recognition
and academic prestige, the value of a UConn degree continues to soar
upward.
2. 21ST CENTURY AMENITIES

This is a tremendously exciting time to attend UConn. A $2.3 billion landmark building program is dramatically transforming the places where students live, learn and enjoy life. Through new construction and renovation,

STATE OF CONNECTICUT
W
ithin its compact borders, Connecticut has forested hills, new urban skylines,
shoreline beaches, white-steeple colonial churches, and historic village greens.
There are classic universities, modern expressways, great corporate offices and small
farms.
Connecticut is a thriving center of business, as well as a vacation land. It is both a New
England state and suburban to New York City.
Today’s Connecticut is more exciting and more impressive than ever. Venture capitalists invested a record $1.8 billion in Connecticut companies in 2000 — more than double
the previous year. Connecticut ranks third nationally in percentage of residents with college degrees and the state is ranked fifth in the nation in share of employment in information technology industries. Connecticut’s manufacturing workforce ranks second in the
nation in productivity and independent studies ranked Connecticut among the top five
states in ability to excel in the new economy.
Connecticut is ranked third in percentage of postal zones with high-speed internet
access and is among the top-10 states in the percentage of workers and businesses in the
high-tech industries.
Included among the residents of Connecticut are 90,000 alumni of the University of
Connecticut, most of whom are part of the ever-growing “Huskymania” fever which has
swept through the state in recent years. Indeed, many state residents believe that UConn,
and its athletic success, is perhaps one of Connecticut’s greatest natural resources.
The Connecticut Yankee has long been a symbol of ingenuity and inventiveness.
These qualities have been matched by production skills since the earliest days. From
colonial times, Connecticut has been predominantly a manufacturing state and a world
leader in industrial development.
When Connecticut was still a colony, its factories were already important enough
to draw angry complaints from competitors in England. Connecticut metal buttons
were replacing the imported product and this provided the start of Connecticut’s
great brass industry.
250
Connecticut is often described as the “Arsenal of the Nation.” It gained this reputation as
early as the American Revolution. Early in the 19th century, Eli Whitney and Simeon North
began making Connecticut firearms with interchangeable parts. This is generally recognized as
the beginning of modern mass production.
Through the years, Connecticut industrial genius has given the world such varied inventions as vulcanized rubber, friction matches, sewing machines, steamboats, safety fuses, lollipops, cork screws, mechanical calculators, cylindrical locks and the submarine.
Today, Connecticut’s manufacturing industry continues to be highly diversified. Jet
aircraft engines, helicopters and nuclear submarines have given the state pre-eminence in
the production of transportation equipment. Connecticut also is a leader in such highly
skilled and technical fields as metalworking, electronics and plastics. This sort of creativity has made a significant contribution to Connecticut’s standard of life — its living
qualities. For more than 50 years, these qualities have been judged to be the nation’s
finest. In turn, they are largely responsible for the influx of major corporate offices.
Connecticut is now the home of such world-wide organizations as Xerox, General
Electric, Uniroyal, GTE, Olin, Champion International and Union Carbide.
Among its better-known corporate industries, however, are its insurance companies.
Connecticut began to earn its reputation as the Insurance State more than 180 years ago.
Marine insurance, the great grandfather of all modern forms of insurance, had its start in
Connecticut with coverage for ships and cargoes which sailed from the state’s ocean and
river ports to the Caribbean. Fire insurance got its formal start in 1794, while other types
— life, accident, casualty, health — followed over the next century. There are 106 insurance companies based in Connecticut.
While agriculture no longer holds its once-prominent position in Connecticut’s economy, farming is still important to the state. The most important crops are, forest and nursery, tobacco, vegetables and fruit, as well as dairy and poultry.

STATE OF CONNECTICUT
Connecticut is New England’s second-smallest and southernmost state. Its 5,009
square miles (13,023 square kilometers) are bordered by New York State on the west,
Rhode Island on the east, Massachusetts on the north and by Long Island sound on the
south.
The southerly flow of the Connecticut River divides the state roughly in half. The
coastal plain and central valley are relatively flat; they contain most of the larger cities.
Other parts of the state are hilly, with the highest altitudes in the northwest corner. Hills
are largely covered with hardwood forests, and about two-thirds of the state is in open land.
Despite New England’s reputation for a rugged climate, Connecticut’s weather is relatively mild. On the average, there are only 12 days a year when the temperature goes above
90 degrees, and about six days when it falls to zero or below. The growing season is fairly
long, with the first killing frost generally in mid-October and the last in mid-April. This,
together with moderate rainfall, provides good growing conditions. Despite Connecticut’s
small size, there is some variety in climate, with temperatures in the northern hills as much
as 10 degrees lower than those in the central valley year-round.
Tourism (www.tourism.state.ct.us) in Connecticut is a $4 billion-a-year business. Much of
it based on the attraction of the state’s 250-mile Long Island Sound shoreline, its rolling
Litchfield Hills, and its unspoiled Connecticut River Valley.
With its wealth of open land, Connecticut’s scenery is some of New England’s
most beautiful. Its scores of Colonial villages are filled with historic homes and landmarks. Dozens of golf courses are open to the public; boating, fishing and swimming
opportunities are everywhere.
Among the most popular individual attractions are Mystic Seaport and nearby Mystic
Marinelife Aquarium; Lake Compounce, Bristol; Nautilus Memorial, Groton; Gillette
Castle, Hadlyme; Valley Railroad, Essex; New-Gate Prison, East Granby; Branford
Trolley Museum, East Haven; Connecticut river cruise ships; and the homes of Mark
Twain and Harriet Beecher Stowe, Hartford.
Connecticut also offers a wealth of cultural attractions, theater, opera, ballet, concerts,
and a number of nationally ranked museums and art galleries.
While Connecticut was first explored by the Dutch, who founded trading posts,
the first permanent settlements were made by English Puritans from Massachusetts,
starting in 1633.
From the first, Connecticut enjoyed a great measure of political independence, proclaiming in its Fundamental Orders of 1639 a democratic principle of government based
on the will of the people. These Fundamental Orders are said to have been the first written Constitution of a democratic government; that’s why Connecticut today is nicknamed
“The Constitution State.”
Agriculture and trade were primary activities of 17th century colonists, but
because of limited land Connecticut people quickly turned to manufacturing.
During the American Revolution, Connecticut gave freely of her blood and
wealth. Her soldiers were on the battle line from Quebec to Carolina. It was General
Israel Putnam at the battle of Bunker Hill who cried: “Don’t fire until you see the
whites of their eyes!” Patriot-spy Nathan Hale, as he was about to be hanged by the
British, said: “I regret that I have but one life to lose for my country.”
To George Washington, Connecticut was “The Provision State” because of
supplies contributed to his army by Gov. Jonathan Trumbull — the only Colonial
governor, incidentally, to support the cause of America’s independence from Great
Britain.
From 1703 to 1875, Connecticut had two capitals; sessions of the General
Assembly met alternately in Hartford and New Haven. Since then, the capital has
been Hartford.
State government in Connecticut has three branches: executive (exec.htm), legislative (www.cga.state.ct.us) and judicial (www.jud.state.ct.us).
Voters elect six state officers: Governor, Lieutenant Governor, Secretary of State,
Treasurer, Comptroller and Attorney General. All have four year terms. Connecticut voters also elect two U.S. Senators and six U.S. Representatives.
The General Assembly or legislature has a Senate and a House of Representatives.
Members of both houses represent districts based strictly on population. Currently, there
are 36 state senators and 151 state representatives.
The Judicial Department is composed of the Superior, Appellate and Supreme courts.
Except for probate judges, who are elected by the voters of the town or district they serve,
all judges are nominated by the governor and appointed by the General Assembly.

THE “STATE OF UCONN”
PROFESSIONAL WORKFORCE
DEVELOPMENT
Human capital is Connecticut’s principal natural resource and
the state relies on the University of Connecticut to educate and
train its highly skilled professional workforce. The University provides high quality education for a diverse student body, helping
Connecticut to retain its brightest and most ambitious young minds,
while drawing outstanding students from other regions who ultimately choose to become permanent residents of the state. Today,
there are more than 90,000 UConn alumni who live and work in
Connecticut.
UConn also serves as a key educational resource to businesses,
government agencies and nonprofit organizations. It provides continuing learning programs to keep employees’ knowledge and skills
current, improve productivity and help businesses deliver better and
more efficient services to their clients and customers.
THE “STATE” OF UCONN
Without question, the University of Connecticut is instrumental in
the state’s quality of life and economic growth.
The Connecticut Center for Economic Analysis documents
that annually UConn generates nearly 38,000 jobs, leverages $800
million in private and federal investments and adds $3.1 billion to
Connecticut’s gross state product.
The University’s contributions stretch beyond tangible figures.
It conducts research and fosters knowledge; improves health care,
education and the environment; hosts and supports exciting athletic, artistic and cultural events; and engages in community outreach
and service.
Thanks to UConn, Connecticut continues to secure its place in
the global marketplace. The contributions of the University are
woven into the fabric of the Nutmeg state.

PUBLIC AND PRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS
The University maintains a wealth of partnerships with organizations and private corporations across the state. UConn’s work with
the Connecticut’s public sector includes providing staff development services to state social service agencies and technical support
to assist state and local agencies in finding solutions to critical environmental, infrastructure and social problems. Our partnerships
with state and local government agencies provide opportunities for
new financial support that extends public services. Within
Connecticut’s private sector, UConn helps support and enhance the
competitiveness of state businesses, enabling them to expand existing operations, launch new initiatives, create jobs and expand the
state’s tax base.
RESEARCH
UConn has been designated as a Carnegie Foundation Research
University-Extensive, a distinction shared by fewer than four percent
of America’s higher education institutions that are lauded for their
breadth and range of research. The University has more than 70
focused research centers that explore subjects ranging from improving human health to enhancing public education and protecting our
natural resources. Annual sponsored
research grants and awards
approached about $200 million in
2003. Faculty research at UConn
provides direct benefits to the
Connecticut economy in the form of
job creation, new business development and subcontracting work with
state businesses. In 2002, this contribution was valued at approximately
$50 million.
The remarkable popularity of UConn Husky athletics has annually
drawn more than 320,000 fans to Hartford for basketball games
and nearly 225,000 people to East Hartford for Division I-A football. “Huskymania” is the singular and unifying source of pride for
Connecticut residents as well as an economic force within the state.
Major corporations affiliate themselves with the University through
their sponsorship of UConn athletics and Connecticut-based vendors produce UConn branded items that are sold in retail outlets
throughout the state. These retail sales generate income for business and state sales tax revenues.
In 2004, Connecticut’s place in college sports history was redefined with UConn’s unprecedented dual men’s and women’s basketball championships—the first such achievement in NCAA Division
I history. The great success of UConn’s athletic teams is celebrated
not only by the University, but also by the citizens of Connecticut
who herald their achievements in sports and academics.
QUALITY OF LIFE
UConn’s contributions to the quality of life in Connecticut are farreaching. They include enhancing
public schools, improving the environment, extending access to
diverse cultural activities and providing recreation and entertainment. The University’s many contributions assist businesses in attracting talented and high-quality individuals who strengthen and expand
our state’s economic health. Last
year, more than 200,000 people
attended events, exhibitions and
performances at UConn.

CITY OF HARTFORD AND THE GREATER HARTFORD AREA
I
t has long been known as the “Insurance Capital of the World” and
it serves as a daily busy hub for some of the most dynamic corporations in the nation. It also serves as the home for UConn football at
Rentschler Field and a home-away-from-home for the UConn men’s
and women’s basketball teams at the Hartford Civic Center.
The City of Hartford and the Greater Hartford region is known
worldwide for its innovative, high technology industries as well as for
its leadership in the insurance industry. Hartford currently sports a
strong foothold in the international marketplace and is broadening
that foothold in order to ensure the region’s economic growth well
into the 21st century.
With scores of international companies like Aetna, United
Technologies, The Hartford, Gerber Scientific and ESPN headquartered here and boasting one of the nation’s most educated and
productive workforces, Hartford is an ideal place to work and to
build a business.
The region ranks: #1 in gross domestic product per capita and
#2 in labor productivity in the world; #3 nationally in both readiness
for the knowledge-based New Economy and for highest number of
patents held; #5 in attracting venture capital; #17 in the top 40 real
estate markets for business expansion; and is the 12th most wired city
and rank in the top 60 cyber cities for high bandwidth.
The Hartford region offers access to 100 million consumers
within an 8-hour drive. That’s access to 32% of U.S. retail sales and
33% of all manufacturing establishments.
For generations, the title of “Insurance Capital of the World”
has been part of the background of Hartford, and for good reason.
Insurance got its start in the Hartford area in the late 1700’s when
trade merchants needed to cover the risks of piracy and ocean
storms. Among the prominent insurance executives of the 1800s
were James G. Batterson, who founded The Travelers Co., and
Morgan G. Bulkeley, a president of Aetna Life and Casualty.
Today, seven insurance giants have their corporate headquarters in
the Greater Hartford area: Aetna Life and Casualty, St. Paul Travelers,
Connecticut Home Life Insurance Company, ITT/Hartford Insurance
Group, CIGNA Corporation, Phoenix Mutual Life Insurance
Company, and Connecticut Mutual Life Insurance Company. The
major accounting firms are also represented in the region.
With its insurance companies and its numerous banks serving as
a core of economic success, the City of Hartford is the fifth largest
financial center in the entire country.
Hartford is in the midst of a major revitalization, which
includes the Adriaen’s Landing riverfront development, the largest
convention center between New York City and Boston with shops,
restaurants and residences.
With a number of insurance companies calling Hartford its home, the city has traditionally been referred to as the “Insurance Capital of the
World.”

CITY OF HARTFORD AND THE GREATER HARTFORD AREA
Serving as Connecticut’s state capital, the City of
Hartford is located in central Connecticut. The Connecticut
River borders the City of Hartford to the east, and Hartford’s
18 square mile area rests entirely within the river valley.
Terrain is gently rolling with extensive level areas and elevations range from near sea level to 190 feet above.
The artistic wealth and diversity of Hartford is portrayed in many ways—from its base as a home of an art
museum of major significance (the Athenaeum), to a nationally recognized theater company (the Tony Award-winning
Hartford Stage Company), to first-rate symphony, ballet and
opera companies (respectively, the Hartford Symphony, the
Hartford Ballet and the Connecticut Opera).
The region has a strong historical relationship with literature. Perhaps its best known author-in-residence was Mark
Twain, who wrote several of his most famous works here,
including Huckleberry Finn. Twain’s Hartford mansion,
along with that of his neighbor Harriet Beecher Stowe, are
open to the public.
The City of Hartford honored the national champion UConn
men’s and women’s basketball teams with a parade that attracted
approximately 350,000 people.
One of the hubs of downtown activity in Hartford is the
Civic Center, which is also the home facility for the Hartford
Wolfpack of the American Hockey League.
Each year, the finest golfers in the world compete at the
PGA Tour’s Buick Challenge, which is played at Cromwell’s
Tournament Players Club at River Highlands.
The greater Hartford landscape gained a major addition in
2003 when UConn football moved into its new $90 million stadium — Rentschler Field in East Hartford. The 40,000-seat
open air stadium provides the state of Connecticut with a
state-of-the-art facility in which the UConn Football program
will compete at the major college level as a member of the BIG
EAST Conference.
A new convention center is currently being built in Hartford and when completed, it will be the largest between New York City and Boston.

MANSFIELD DOWNTOWN PARTNERSHIP
T
he Mansfield Downtown Partnership, Inc., was created in
2001 as an independent, non-profit organization charged with
coordinating the enhancement and revitalization of three of
Mansfield’s commercial areas – Storrs Center, King Hill Road and
the Four Corners. As a public-private partnership, the organization
is composed of representatives from the community, businesses,
town government and the University of Connecticut.
As part of the American Downtown Program sponsored by
the National League of Cities, the Mansfield Town Council retained
the national planning firm of HyettPalma in 1999 to develop an
enhanced strategy for the revitalization of downtown Mansfield’s
commercial areas. Following a collaborative process, HyettPalma
produced the Mansfield Downtown Partnership Action Agenda,
which details a series of findings and recommendations.
Those recommendations were: develop a community green
space, improve traffic flow and parking, increase business retention
and attraction, encourage real estate development and enhancement, expand marketing and promotion and add public improvements, such as streetscape design.
One of the Partnership’s first tasks was to commission the
development of a concept Master Plan for Storrs Center to create
a sense of identity, cohesion and ambiance. Milone & MacBroom,
Inc. consultants worked with the Partnership to create the concept
Master Plan. The concept Master Plan was presented in several
public forums and was revised through the public process. The
concept Master Plan was completed in summer 2002 and can be
found on the Partnership’s website at www.mansfieldct.org.
The concept Master Plan includes three main elements: mixeduse development (retail/restaurant/office/housing), a town green
and market-rate housing. Streetscape improvements are also a vital
piece of future development.
Over the next few months, the Partnership will be working on
the implementation of the Master Plan. On May 28, 2002, the
Town of Mansfield authorized the Partnership to serve as its
municipal development agency to undertake the development of
the Storrs Center area on behalf of the Town. A project plan will
be prepared to address the technical and legal description of the
development to take place. Looney Ricks Kiss Architects, Inc.,
began work on the municipal development project plan in March
2003.
In June 2004, the Partnership identified LeylandAlliance LLC
from Tuxedo, N.Y., to serve as its master developer for the project.
LeylandAlliance will be working with the Partnership and Looney
Ricks Kiss on the final planning documents to be completed by the
end of 2004.
Congressman Rob Simmons of Connecticut’s Second District speaks at the presentation of the Rural Business Enterprise Grant to the Town of
Mansfield and Mansfield Downtown Partnership in April of 2004. Joining him are Downtown Partnership vice president Betsy Treiber, former
UConn Provost John Peterson, Mansfield Mayor Betsy Paterson and David Tuttle of the United States Department of Agriculture.

2003-04 ATHLETICS YEAR IN REVIEW
THE HOME OF CHAMPIONS
The University of Connecticut was the “Home of Champions” during the 20032004 academic year.
The most tangible evidence of this came on consecutive days in early April when
UConn won NCAA Championships in both men’s and women’s basketball –
becoming the first Division I school to win both titles in the same year.
The moniker “Home of Champions” goes far beyond basketball — and athletics for that matter. UConn student-athletes are champions on the playing fields and
courts, as well as in the classrooms and in the community.
UConn teams advanced to NCAA Championship play in five different sports
this past year as the men’s and women’s basketball teams won national championships, the women’s soccer team played in the national final, the field hockey team
advanced to the NCAA quarterfinals and the men’s soccer team went to the second
round of the NCAA tournament.
Individuals from UConn participated in the NCAA men’s and women’s indoor
and outdoor track championships and the women’s swimming championship.
UConn has now won an NCAA Championship in each of the past six academic years dating back to 1998-99: 1999 men’s basketball, 2000 women’s basketball,
2000 men’s soccer, 2002 women’s basketball, 2003 women’s basketball and 2004
men’s and women’s basketball.
The 2003-2004 year was also highlighted with the opening of Rentschler Field,
the country’s newest and most modern college football stadium. UConn posted a
record of 5-1 in its new home and had an overall record of 9-3.
Husky teams were successful on the BIG EAST level as the women’s basketball,
field hockey and women’s soccer teams all won BIG EAST regular season titles. The
men’s basketball team won the BIG EAST tournament and the men’s indoor track
and field team won the BIG EAST Championship.
The men’s track and field team won the indoor New England Championship for
the 11th-straight year while the women’s indoor team won it for the third time in the
past four years.
A total of 10 Husky student-athletes won All-America honors this past year:
Maureen Butler in field hockey, Kristen Graczyk in women’s soccer, Lauren
Henderson in field hockey, Logan Jones in men’s indoor track and field, Joel Legare
in men’s outdoor track and field, Mary Jo Malone in field hockey, Deirdre Mullen in
both indoor and outdoor women’s track and field, Emeka Okafor in men’s basketball, Diana Taurasi in women’s basketball and Will Thomas in men’s indoor track
and field.
UConn produced a pair of Academic All-Americans in Okafor, who was also
selected as the Academic All-American of the Year for men’s basketball, and football’s Shaun Feldeisen, who earned second team honors.
Both Okafor and Taurasi were honored as the national player of the year in their
respective sports.
Field hockey head coach Nancy Stevens was honored as the BIG EAST
Conference and regional coach of the year while men’s track and field coach Greg
Roy and his assistants were honored as the BIG EAST indoor staff of the year.

DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS JEFFREY A. HATHAWAY
J
Jeff Hathaway was named the Director of Athletics at the
University of Connecticut on June 10, 2003.
effrey A. Hathaway was named the new Director of Athletics at the University of
Connecticut on June 10, 2003, but he was far from a stranger on the Storrs campus.
Hathaway was the Executive Associate Director of Athletics at UConn from 19902001 before serving as the Director of Athletics at Colorado State University for two
years.
In his first year as UConn’s athletic director, the men’s and women’s basketball teams
both won the national championship while the women’s soccer team advanced to the
NCAA final. In addition, the field hockey and men’s soccer teams also took part in NCAA
tournament action and individuals from five other sports also advanced to NCAA competition. A total of 10 Husky student-athletes were named All-Americans in 2003-04 and
two earned Academic All-America honors.
UConn also opened Rentschler Field in 2003 – the country’s newest and most modern college football facility. The Huskies posted a 9-3 record in 2003 and ended the year
with five-straight wins.
Hathaway’s first year also saw the UConn Division of Athletics raise a total of nearly
$14 million. In addition, UConn secured a gift of $2.5 million from UConn graduate Mark
Shenkman for the building of The Mark R. Shenkman Training Center, an intercollegiate,
intramural and recreational facility that will serve the entire UConn community.
During Hathaway’s career, he has always made the student-athlete the top priority. In
the 2003 spring and fall semesters, nearly 40 percent of UConn’s 650 student-athletes
earned a 3.0 grade point average or better – including 14 that had a perfect 4.0. In addition, the Division of Athletics has consistently maintained a 99 percent retention rate
among its student-athletes.
“My focus is on the student-athlete,” says Hathaway. “That’s the most important part
of our program. Our primary mission is the continued academic success of our studentathletes. The challenge is to identify people early in the process and assist them in charting a career path. In addition, we want to provide a quality experience in intercollegiate
athletics for our student-athletes.”
Jeff Hathaway is joined by (left to right) UConn football coach Randy Edsall, women’s basketball coach Geno Auriemma, President Philip Austin and

DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS JEFFREY A. HATHAWAY
Hathaway originally came to Connecticut in November of 1990 as Senior
Associate Athletic Director. In that role, he oversaw the day-to-day operations
of the Division of Athletics.
He also served internally as a program administrator for several sports,
including men’s and women’s basketball and men’s and women’s soccer at
UConn as the Huskies won four national championships in those sports during
his tenure – two in women’s basketball (1995 and 2000) and one each in men’s
basketball (1999) and men’s soccer (2000).
Hathaway was the program administrator for football and he played a key
role in the upgrade of UConn’s football program to Division I-A status and the
building of Rentschler Field.
During Hathaway’s tenure at Colorado State, he oversaw a 15-sport program
– nine women’s teams and six men’s.
The Ram football team made a pair of bowl appearances while Hathaway
was at CSU. The men’s basketball team won the Mountain West Conference
tournament in March of ‘03 and advanced to the NCAA tournament for the
first time in 13 years. The women’s basketball team advanced to postseason play
twice, including a trip to the second round of the NCAA tournament in 2002
and the semifinals of the 2003 Women’s NIT. A total of four Ram teams won
Mountain West championships during 2002-03 and seven took part in postseason play.
Hathaway was an extremely successful fundraiser during his time in Fort
Collins. The school drew national attention last spring for a $15.2 million gift
from the Bohemian Foundation and president Pat Stryker for football stadium
renovations and expansion.
Hathaway represented the Mountain West Conference on the NCAA
Division I Championships/Competition Cabinet, as well as the Football
Certification Subcommittee, which is responsible for issues involving postseason
football competition and the certification of bowl games. He continues to serve
on that same NCAA committee and subcommittee as a representative for the
BIG EAST.

at his alma mater – the University of Maryland – from 1982-90, including
Assistant Athletics Director for Marketing and Promotions, Acting Assistant
Athletics Director for Business Affairs, Athletics Business Manager and men’s
basketball trainer.
Hathaway earned his Bachelor of Science degree in Athletic Administration
from the University of Maryland in 1981. He later received a Master’s Degree
in General Administration (1991) from the University of Maryland and is currently continuing work on a PhD in Educational Leadership from the University
of Connecticut.
He attended The Sports Management Institute at the Universities of Notre
Dame and Southern California. Hathaway also completed the Management
Development Program at Harvard University.
Born June 20, 1959, in Cheverly, Md., Hathaway and his wife Paula have two
children: Meghan (October 15, 1991) and Michael (June 11, 1995).

CPIA DIRECTOR BRUCE COHEN/ATHLETIC TRAINER ROSEMARY RAGLE
BRUCE COHEN
CPIA Director
The University of Connecticut is committed to
each of its basketball players, and all of its studentathletes, as a total person. Participation in athletics
is important, but it represents only one aspect of a
basketball player's college experience. At the
University of Connecticut, academic achievement
is the primary concern. Impressively, for the past
four years the Connecticut student-athlete retention rate has been 99.0 percent.
The University's commitment to the student-athlete is a dual one. Participation on the
basketball court is not viewed as an obstacle to the
attainment of one's educational goals, rather it is
seen as a complementary activity. Each supports
the other. Athletic excellence is stressed, but academic achievement is never compromised - indeed,
it is given the utmost priority.
The University realizes that basketball players and all student-athletes, due to their
academic involvement, are required to commit a large percentage of their personal time
to University sponsored athletic activities. For this reason, the University recognizes the
need for a support program for its intercollegiate athletes. The Counseling Program for
Intercollegiate Athletes (CPIA) constantly assists all student-athletes in achieving their
academic goals. The CPIA staff serves as a liaison to the academic faculty, the Division
of Athletics, and the student-athlete.
In serving as a liaison between the Connecticut student-athletes and University faculty and staff, the CPIA counselors also provide assistance in securing appropriate support services available with the University. These include orientation for student-athletes,
supervised study halls, individual tutors and tutorial centers (an English/Writing Center,
Math Center and Reading Center) and learning skills seminars.
For the past six years, the writing lab and computers have been networked to a
national database which allow all student-athletes to do research at their actual computer stations.

The team is spearheaded by Rosemary Ragle, MS, ATC, the women’s
basketball Athletic Trainer and Assistant Athletic Trainer. Physician coverage is led by Jeffrey Anderson, M.D., the Director of Sports Medicine and

Orthopaedics in Farmington.
The Department of Sports Medicine works intimately with the
Departments of Kinesiology and Nutritional Sciences on the University of
Connecticut campus. This affords the student-athletes with the input of
several nationally recognized exercise scientists. This cooperation also
keeps the sports medicine staff at the cutting edge of developments in the
fields of human performance and sports nutrition. Members of the sports
medicine staff are actively engaged in research that directly benefits the
care of the basketball student-athletes.
The UConn Basketball Sports Medicine team is housed in brand new
state-of-the-art facilities in the Harry A. Gampel Pavilion, which were
completed in October of 2002.
In addition to providing the finest in medical care for the UConn basketball program, the Department of Sports Medicine at the University of
Connecticut administers to the daily needs of 600 male and female intercollegiate student-athletes who are competing in 24 different varsity programs.
The Department of Sports Medicine at the University of Connecticut
plays a critical role in assuring that all UConn student-athletes have 24hour access to the finest medical support and quality health care possible.
Through patient care and ongoing research and education, the department
continues to provide Husky teams a competitive edge from the medical
perspective.

STRENGTH & CONDITIONING PROGRAM
The strength and conditioning program for University of Connecticut is under the
direction of Strength and Conditioning Coordinator, Jerry Martin, M.A., CSCS.
Coach Martin is in his 15th year at UConn. He has been a finalist for the National
Strength Coach of the Year Award (1994 and 2001).
It is the goal to provide each student-athlete with personalized instruction during a
workout that is tailored to meet the demands of each sport and position. Each student-athlete is provided with this opportunity to enhance his athletic performance
through proper strength training and conditioning until he has fulfilled his athletic
potential.
Specific testing is performed on each player to monitor progress in power, strength,
and conditioning. These tests provide the coaches and medical staff with an accurate
athletic profile on each basketball player.
Each member of the strength and conditioning staff currently holds or is working
towards a masters degree in kinesiology, biomechanics, physiology or another related
field. All staff members are certified by the National Strength and Conditioning
Association (NSCA) as Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialists (CSCS) and are
encouraged to be certified by the United States of America Weightlifting (USAW) to
teach Olympic style lifts.

A HUSKY TRADITION OF EXCELLENCE
I do it the right way, we are not going to do it at all.”
n the UConn Division of Athletics, there is a saying: “If we’re not going to
That’s the attitude when in comes to anything that happens in the Division
from its administrators, coaches and student-athletes. There’s a tradition of
excellence at UConn that is fostered on a continual basis.
The Huskies have won eight NCAA national championships since 1990 –
five in women’s basketball, two in men’s basketball and one in men’s soccer.
UConn has made NCAA semifinal appearances 10 other times during that
period – including four in women’s soccer, three in women’s basketball, two in
field hockey and one in men’s soccer.
In total, UConn teams have advanced to NCAA Championship play 65
times since 1990-91 while Husky student-athletes have garnered All-America
honors 142 times.
UConn teams have also won 40 BIG EAST Conference regular season
championships during that time and 35 BIG EAST Tournament titles.
None of this success is possible without great leaders and UConn has had
five different head coaches recognized as national coaches of the year in the
past 13 years – Geno Auriemma of women’s basketball, Jim Calhoun of men’s
basketball, Ray Reid of men’s soccer, Len Tsantiris of women’s soccer and
Bruce Marshall of men’s ice hockey.
The Division of Athletics – which now boasts of over 150 full-time
employees – strives to help the University of Connecticut grow, develop and
improve each and every day.
HUSKIES IN THE RED, WHITE AND BLUE
University of Connecticut coaches and student-athletes have a long tradition of representing the United States on national teams. Participation on a
national squad is not only a tremendous honor and privilege, it also offers the
opportunity to compete against the best in the world.
Four former UConn basketball players represented the United States this
past summer at the Summer Olympics in Greece with Emeka Okafor on the
men’s team and Sue Bird, Diana Taurasi and Swin Cash.
Former Husky Ray Allen has played on three different United States
national teams and won a gold medal at the 2000 Olympics. UConn women’s
head coach Geno Auriemma was on the staff of the 2000 Olympic gold medal
team.
In women’s soccer, Sara Whalen was a member of the World Cup
championship team in 1988 and won a silver medal at the 2000 Olympics.
268
Baseball player Charles Nagy was a member of the 1988 gold-medal winning Olympic team while Husky athletes have been named to United States
Olympic squads in men’s soccer, men’s track and field and women’s field hockey.
In coaching, former UConn head baseball coach Andy Baylock, who is
now the Director of Alumni and Community Affairs for the football program, served on a number of national team staffs for basketball and football,
while women’s lacrosse head coach Bonnie Rosen continues to play for the
United States national team. Special adviser to athletics Dee Rowe was also a
member of an Olympic men’s basketball coaching staff.
HUSKIES IN THE PROS
University of Connecticut student-athletes have been making the successful transition to a number of different professional sports for decades.
UConn has sent a tremendous number of players to the National
Basketball Association in recent years. These pros include Richard Hamilton,
who is a leading member of the 2004 National Basketball Association champion Detroit Pistons and Ray Allen, a three-time NBA all-star who is now a
member of the Seattle SuperSonics.
The UConn women’s basketball program has been a staple in sending
players to the Women’s National Basketball Association with a total of 17 former Huskies that have seen league action, including Taurasi, Cash and Bird.
In football, Brian Kozlowski played his 11th season in the National
Football League in 2003 as a member of the Atlanta Falcons and participated
in the Super Bowl for Atlanta in 1999. He is now a member of the
Washington Redskins. Nick Giaquinto played in two Super Bowls as a member of the Redskins, including the 1983 championship squad.
One of UConn’s first pros was Walt Dropo, who had opportunities in
professional football, basketball and baseball and wound up earning 1950
American League Rookie of the Year honors with the Boston Red Sox.
UConn’s Charles Nagy also enjoyed a stellar professional baseball career with
the Cleveland Indians. He was a two-time all-star and pitched in the 1997
World Series.
UConn has also sent stars to Major League Soccer, where former Husky
stars Damani Ralph and Chris Gbandi are among the league’s finest players.
In ice hockey, Brian Krygier enjoyed a career with the National Hockey
League’s Hartford Whalers and Washington Capitals in the early 1990’s.

UCONN TRADITIONS
“UCONN HUSKY” FIGHT SONG
“UConn Husky” is the fight song of the school. It was written in the mid-1930’s by Herb
France, who was UConn’s Director of Music until the mid-1950’s. The song is widely known for
its playing at different sporting events, but got “out of this world” attention in October 1989 when
it was played aboard NASA’s Space Shuttle to wake up the shuttle astronauts. Among those astronauts on the mission was Franklin Chang-Diaz, a 1973 UConn graduate.

Fight, fight Connecticut,
It’s victory, let’s go!

Once more, as we gather today
To sing our alma mater’s praise
And join in the fellowship strong
That inspires our college days.
We’re backing our teams in the strife
Cheering them to victory.
We pledge anew
To old Connecticut,
Our steadfast spirit of loyalty.
When time shall have severed us far
And the years their changes bring,
The thought of the college we love
In our memories will cling.
For friendships that ever remain
And associations dear
We’ll raise a song
To old Connecticut
And join our voices in our long cheer
Connecticut, Connecticut
Thy sons and daughters true
Unite to honor thy name
Our fairest white and blue.
Connecticut, Connecticut
Thy sons and daughters true
Unite to honor thy name
Our fairest white and blue.
JONATHAN THE HUSKY MASCOT
The official mascot of the University of Connecticut is
a Siberian Husky dog named Jonathan. The first Husky
dog came to the Storrs campus in Dec. 1934 and the puppy
was named for Jonathan Trumbull, Governor of
Connecticut during the Revolutionary War. Jonathan I’s
pedigree was traced back to include a great-grandfather,
who traveled to the North Pole with Admiral E. Byrd in
1909. Jonathan III was with Admiral Byrd when he undertook “Operation High Jump” to the Antarctic in 1946-47.
In the summer of 2001, the UConn community welcomed the newest Husky dog, Jonathan XII, to the Storrs
campus.
A costumed mascot, an all-white Siberian Husky,
gained popularity over the past several decades and
through national television exposure has become "in
demand" throughout the state and region, representing his
University.

J. ROBERT DONNELLY SPORTS MUESEUM
T
he sights and sounds of more than a century of intercollegiate athletics
competition come alive during a visit to the J. Robert Donnelly Husky
Heritage Sports Museum.
Located in the new and expanded UConn Alumni Center in the heart of
the University of Connecticut’s main campus in Storrs, the Husky Heritage
Sports Museum is the ultimate library documenting the wide-ranging successes
of Connecticut’s athletic programs.
The state-of-the-art design and layout of the new 2,700 square foot Husky
Heritage Sports Museum, named after benefactor and 1940 Connecticut basketball and football captain J. Robert (Bob) Donnelly, vividly captures all of the
energy, excitement and enthusiasm that is associated with “Huskymania”.
The visitors’ UConn experience begins once they enter the museum and
are greeted by a full figure statue of Jonathan, the legendary mascot of all Husky
athletic teams.
Oversized banners proudly hang from the ceiling, displaying action images
that feature 88 of Connecticut’s All-American stars representing 17 different
intercollegiate sports.
A tour of the various sections of the Husky Heritage Sports Museum is a
walk down memory lane for long-time followers of Connecticut athletics. For
fans just becoming acquainted with UConn’s tradition of excellence, the various
themes and areas of the museum, when woven together, narrate a complete and
compelling sport-by-sport story line. The growth and development of
Connecticut athletics is traced via text, photographs and select artifacts from its
humble beginnings in the 1890s to its present day ranking among the elite major
college athletic programs in the nation.
Included among the “must see” memorabilia in the Husky Heritage Sports
Museum main concourse are the 1981 and 2000 NCAA National
Championship Men’s Soccer trophies; the 1981 and 1985 NCAA National
Championship Women’s Field Hockey trophies; the 1950s era baseball gloves

The pinnacle achievement of UConn’s seven NCAA National
Championships in both men’s and women’s basketball is preserved and promoted in a unique circular sanctuary—-the Connecticut Basketball Rotunda.
Championship trophies and related artifacts that chronicle UConn’s men’s
and women’s national titles are prominently featured in the rotunda, as are lifesize cutouts of Husky All-American stars Ray Allen and Rebecca Lobo.
Celebratory paintings of head coaches Jim Calhoun and Geno Auriemma are
on display along with a one-of-a-kind watercolor team photo of the 25-member UConn Men’s Basketball All-Century team.
Also within the Connecticut Basketball experience is a six-screen continuing video presentation offering behind-the-scenes looks at various UConn
Athletics “winning moments” as captured on a variety of Husky highlight films
and documentaries.
Each display case of memorabilia and every historical photograph located
within the walls of the J. Robert Donnelly Husky Heritage Sports Museum
describe a portion of a truly remarkable story.
That story of the teams, the coaches, and student-athletes who have been
part of the rich history that constitutes the Connecticut athletic experience is
now being told on a daily basis at UConn’s Husky Heritage Sports Museum.
Since the Husky Heritage Sports Museum opened in January of 2002, several important artifacts have been donated from UConn loyalists to help expand
the scope of the Connecticut Athletics storyline – including a 1952 Varsity “C”
Letter Jacket from former football captain Rocco Murano and the Varsity Letter
Sweater of legendary Husky men’s basketball coach Hugh Greer that was presented by his son, Scott Greer.
Anyone wishing to donate specific Connecticut Athletics memorabilia to
the J. Robert Donnelly Husky Heritage Sports Museum should contact Tim
Tolokan, Associate Director of Athletics, at (860) 486-9097.

THE MARK R. SHENKMAN TRAINING CENTER
T
hanks to alumnus Mark R. Shenkman, the University of Connecticut will
soon join the ranks of major universities nationwide with an indoor training
facility that will be utilized by all varsity sports and recreational services.
His $2.5 million gift, one of the largest ever to the UConn Division of Athletics,
will help build an intercollegiate, intramural and recreational facility that will serve
the entire UConn community.
The 85,000 square foot Mark R. Shenkman Training Center will rival similar
facilities at other large universities that have traditionally been dominant in college
athletics.
The facility will featuring a 120-yard long synthetic playing surface and an
18,000 square foot strength and conditioning area.
The University has contracted with the Hartford-based firm of Jeter, Cook and
Jepson and with HOK Sport + Venue + Event, an internationally-renowned
architectural firm based in Kansas City, to provide architectural and engineering
services for The Mark R. Shenkman Training Center.
Founded in 1983, HOK created the first practice devoted to the design of
sports facilities and is now recognized as a world leader in the field. Its client list
includes 75 major colleges and universities, 24 Major League Baseball franchises
and 30 National Football League franchises. The company has been involved with
over 600 sports projects, including on-campus football facilities for several major
universities along with professional stadiums such as Gillette Stadium (New
England Patriots), Reliant Stadium (Houston Texans) and SBC Park (San
Francisco Giants).
A resident of Greenwich, Connecticut, Shenkman graduated from the
Wilbraham & Monson Academy in Wilbraham, Massachusetts. He received a
bachelor's degree in political science from UConn in 1965 followed by a master's
degree in business administration from The George Washington University.
Shenkman is the founder and president of Shenkman Capital Management, Inc.,
a registered investment advisor with offices in New York City and Stamford,
Connecticut. He has served on the UConn Foundation's Board of Directors for
eight years and has been a member of its investment committee. Shenkman was
elected to the UConn School of Business Hall of Fame in 2002 and has endowed
a classroom and the e-Commerce Chair for the business school.
Acknowledging the gift, UConn Director of Athletics Jeff Hathaway praised
Shenkman's generosity:: "We are very grateful to Mark Shenkman and his entire
family for this significant enhancement to our athletic program. This landmark
facility will provide all of our varsity teams with an outstanding training venue
while adding to our recreational services offerings."
"There is a special place in my heart for the University of Connecticut," says
Shenkman. "It's gratifying that the UConn student population as a whole will
benefit from this leading edge facility."
Construction for The Mark R. Shenkman Training Center will begin in the
winter of 2004, with the opening slated for the summer of 2006.

GAMPEL PAVILION
S
ince its opening in January of 1990, the Harry A. Gampel Pavilion
has played an important role in helping build women’s basketball at
the University of Connecticut into one of the truly elite major programs
in all of college basketball.
In 15 seasons in Gampel Pavilion, head coach Geno Auriemma and his
Connecticut Basketball teams have posted a stunning 202-15 overall record
(.931 winning percentage).
Since the start of the 1993-94 season, the Huskies have posted a phenomenal overall record of 158-3 in regular season and tournament games
played in the Harry A. Gampel Pavilion and in eight of those nine seasons
UConn has been unbeaten on its home court in Storrs.
In addition to the remarkable success rate the Huskies have enjoyed in
the Harry A. Gampel Pavilion, Connecticut Basketball in Storrs has
attracted the crowds.
UConn women’s basketball experienced its first-ever “sellout” of 8,241
fans in Gampel Pavilion on February 20, 1993 when the Huskies dropped
a 68-54 nationally-televised (CBS Sports) decision to defending national
champion Stanford.
The next season, 1993-94, Connecticut would have five sellouts at
home, setting the stage for the national championship year of 1994-95.
During the stunning 35-0 perfect season of 1994-95, which culminated
with an NCAA National Championship for UConn women’s basketball,
Geno Auriemma and the Huskies played before 12 “sellouts” in Gampel
Pavilion and in 1995-96 the Huskies were sold out for 17 of 19 home
games.
Prior to the 1996-97 season, Gampel Pavilion’s seating capacity
increased from 8,241 to 10,027, making the facility the largest on-campus
basketball arena in the Northeast.
During the 1996-97 and 1997-98 seasons, 22 more sellouts were recorded in Gampel Pavilion by the Connecticut women’s basketball team.
Starting with the Rutgers game in Gampel Pavilion on December 31,
1997, 82 consecutive UConn women’s basketball games at Gampel (regular season and post-season play) have been sold out entering 2004-05.
During UConn’s 1999-2000 national championship season, all 16 games
played in the Harry A. Gampel Pavilion in Storrs (11 regular season, 3 BIG
272
EAST, 2 NCAA) were sellouts. In 1998-99, all 13 UConn women’s basketball home games played in the Harry A. Gampel Pavilion were sold out.
In 2000-01, the Huskies posted their fifth undefeated season in Gampel
Pavilion, posting a 14-0 record at home, including a 3-0 record in the BIG
EAST Tournament en route to the team’s tenth BIG EAST crown. All 14
contests were sellouts.
In 2002-03, after renovations to Gampel Pavilion, the seating capacity
expanded to 10,167 when the end zone seats were made permanent. The
Huskies had six regular season contests at Gampel Pavilion in 2002-03,
plus two NCAA Tournament games. The team went an untarnished 8-0.
In all, there have been 129 sellouts for Connecticut women’s basketball
games in Gampel Pavilion against collegiate opposition during the past 11
years and UConn’s record in those games is 126-3.
In addition to its regular season success in Gampel Pavilion,
Connecticut has also performed superbly in the building during post-season competition.
The Huskies have won four BIG EAST Tournament titles in the
Gampel Pavilion (1994, 1996, 1997, 2000, 2001) and UConn is a perfect
86-0 against BIG EAST Conference opponents in Gampel Pavilion during the past 10 seasons (the last UConn loss in Storrs to a BIG EAST team
took place on February 27, 1993, a 64-62 loss to Georgetown).
In the NCAA Championship, Connecticut is 24-2 overall in Gampel
Pavilion and the Huskies have hosted NCAA Tournament competition
every season (14 years) since the opening of the building. UConn is riding
a 22-game winning streak in NCAA games at home during the past nine
seasons.
In 2004-05, the Huskies have seven regular season contests and an exhibition game at Gampel Pavilion. Included in the seven games are five BIG
EAST regular season contests.

HARTFORD CIVIC CENTER
he Hartford Civic Center has become a friendly “second home”
for the University of Connecticut women’s basketball program.
TDuring
the past eight seasons, UConn has played 41 games in the
spacious Hartford Civic Center and the Huskies of head coach Geno
Auriemma are a 39-2 in those contests. Each of those 41 games have
been played as single games. Prior to the first of those 41 games
(January 5, 1997 against arch-rival Tennessee), the Connecticut
women’s basketball program had not played in Hartford for eight
years.
From 1980 to 1989, the UConn women’s basketball program had
played nine games in the Hartford Civic Center, but each of those contests were part of college basketball doubleheaders with the UConn
men’s basketball program.
In the nine “doubleheader” games, the UConn women’s program
posted a 5-4 record. Since establishing itself as a recognized national
power in major college women’s basketball and returning to Hartford
for selected appearances, Connecticut has added the 39 “single game”
wins in Hartford and stands at 44-6 overall in 50 appearances in the
building.
The 2004-05 season will see UConn play a season-high nine regular
season games at the Hartford Civic Center, along with one exhibition
contest.
The Huskies will open the 2004-05 season with an exhibition game
against the Houston Jaguars on November 16. UConn will then play
six non-conference regular season opponents leading into BIG EAST
conference play. On December 5, Connecticut will play host to Holy
Cross and two days later on December 7, the Huskies will welcome the
University of Hartford to the Civic Center for an interesting matchup
that will pit former UConn standout and current Hartford head coach
Jen Rizzotti against her former team.
George Mason will visit the Civic Center on December 27, and
Michigan State will close out the month on December 29.
274
Two of the most anticipated games of the year will also take place
at the Civic Center as the Huskies host rival Tennessee before a nationally-televised audience on CBS on Jan. 8.
A visit from Texas follows on Martin Luther King Day in Hartford
in a rematch of the 2003 NCAA National Semifinals which will be televised to a national audience on espn2.
Seton Hall will be the first BIG EAST team to visit the Civic Center
on January 22. Rutgers will come calling on Feb. 3 before Syracuse
rounds out the Civic Center’s BIG EAST slate on Feb. 19.
This will mark the third consecutive season that UConn has played
a record number of regular-season games at the Hartford Civic Center.
In 2003-04, the Huskies played eight regular season games on the
Civic Center floor. UConn saw its 35-game winning streak at the Civic
Center end in a buzzer-beater 68-67 loss to Duke on Jan. 3. The
Huskies went 7-1 in regular season games at the Civic Center and 3-1
in postseason action in the building, including a 66-49 win over Penn
State in the 2004 NCAA East Regional Final.
In 2002-03, UConn played a then record-high seven regular-season
games at the Hartford Civic Center, in front of sold-out crowds. The
Huskies defeated Southern California (68-44), St. Joseph’s (82-48),
Tennessee (63-62 ot), Rutgers (67-62), Georgetown (72-49), Syracuse
(75-51) and West Virginia (78-58). UConn broke the NCAA Division
I record for consecutive wins (55 at the time) against Georgetown on
January 18 on the Civic Center court.
In its 37 regular-season appearances in Hartford during the past
eight seasons, UConn has played before 601,291 fans. Twenty-eight of
the games have been complete sellouts of 16,294 each and the average
crowd for Connecticut women’s basketball in Hartford since 1997 has
been 16,251.
