That was the mentality Kentucky women’s golf head coach Golda Johansson Borst wanted to instill into her team before the season after coming oh-so-close to making the NCAA Championships last season. After a schoolrecord five straight NCAA regional appearances, Borst wants to get over the hump and make the national finals as a team for the first time since 1992. Find a way has never had more meaning after a difficult fall that’s been plagued by injuries and riddled with some of the toughest tournaments in the country. UK barely missed qualifying for the NCAA Championships last season after one of the best final rounds of the year at the 2015 South Bend Regional. The Wildcats placed seventh in the region (the top six teams qualify for the NCAA Championships), the best finish under Borst, and sent then-freshman Isabelle Johansson to the NCAA Championships as an individual, the first time a Kentucky individual qualified for the finals since Heather Kraus in 1998. Despite those accomplishments, Borst described the 2014-15 season as inconsistent and raised expectations for the program. Borst brought back a versatile roster with experienced seniors Cylia Damerau and Sarah Harris, key additions like Nebraska transfer Jordan Chael, and young, talentfilled players like Grace Rose and Johansson, who led the Wildcats in scoring average in the fall and represent the future of the program. The fall hasn’t gone according to plan because of several key injuries and inconsistencies. Throw in tournaments that featured some of the nation’s top talent and it’s made for a tough early season. Nevertheless, Borst wants her team to find a way. The Wildcats still can during the important spring season and showed signs of finding their way at the conclusion of their last tournament. On the last day of the fall season, the Wildcats ISABELLE JOHAN SSO N got momentum back on their side. With Rose’s career-best 5-under-par 67 and 54-hole score of 222 — the top 54-hole score for any member of the team this season — Kentucky shot its best 18-hole team score of the 2015-16 year and gave the Wildcats something to build on in the offseason. In order to reach the NCAA Championships in the spring, rounds like that will have to be replicated and the team will have to get back to the roots of their game of playing aggressively with fire and determination and without fear. But, with time this winter to practice, to heal from injuries and to regain composure, the opportunity is still there in the spring to continue the program’s regional success and break through into the NCAA Championships. They can still find a way. It starts with a matchup vs. Louisville on Jan. 31, followed by a trip to the Darius Rucker Intercollegiate. The LSU Tiger Golf Classic will take place March 4-6. From there, Kentucky will finish out the regular season at the Bryan National Collegiate, where the Wildcats had two individuals finish in the top 15, three in the top 50 and finished sixth as a team.

Fsu led the acc in seven defensive categories. stoops also coached the defensive backs under head coach jimbo Fisher. eight seminoles on defense earned 2012 all-acc honors, including four first-team selections, highlighted by one of the nation’s top defensive end duos in bjoern werner and cornellius carradine, who combined for 24 sacks and 31 tackles for loss. werner was a finalist for the 2012 bronko nagurski award as the national defensive player of the year and was among the national leaders in sacks with 13. stoops also coached cornerback ronald darby to acc defensive rookie of the year. the seminoles’ prowess was a continuation of the 2011 season, when stoops’ defenders led the nation in fewest yards allowed per carry (2.3), ranked fourth in the nation in total defense (275 yards per game), second in rushing defense (82.7 ypg), fourth in scoring defense (15.1 points per game), and eighth in tackles for loss (8.6 per game) and quarterback sacks (3.1 per game).

Fsu ranked 42nd nationally in total defense that season; in contrast, BACK The OFFICIAL the team was 108th nationally in total defense and 94th in scoring defense in 2009, the year before Stoops’ arrival. FSU improved its overall defense by more than 80 yards per game, primarily by limiting opponents to 75 fewer rushing yards per game. The Seminoles ranked third in the nation in quarterback sacks and were 21st in tackles for loss. In the secondary, Stoops coached Xavier Rhodes to ACC Defensive Rookie of the Year honors and National Defensive Freshman of the Year accolades. During Stoops’ three seasons, FSU went 10-4, 9-4 and 12-2, including wins over South Carolina in the 2010 Chick-fil-A Bowl, Notre Dame in the 2011 Champs Sports Bowl and Northern Illinois in the 2013 Orange Bowl. Stoops was defensive coordinator and DBs coach at Arizona from 2004-09, working for his brother, Mike, who was head coach of the Wildcats. During Mark’s time there, Arizona’s records improved steadily, going 3-8, 3-8, 6-6, 5-7, 8-5 and 8-5. The Wildcats advanced to the Las Vegas Bowl and Holiday Bowl during the last two years. Mark and Mike are also brothers of Oklahoma head coach Bob Stoops. Mike is currently the defensive coordinator on Bob’s staff at Oklahoma. The eldest of the brothers, Ron Stoops Jr., is co-defen- DIGITAL GAMEDAY GUIDE sive coordinator at Youngstown State. Stoops inherited an Arizona unit that was 109th in the nation in total defense and 107th in scoring defense in 2003, the year before he arrived. By the end of his term at Arizona, the Wildcats ranked in the nation’s top 25 in total defense his final two seasons and ranked as high as 33rd in scoring defense. Prior to Arizona, Stoops coached the defensive backs three years at Miami (Fla.). The 2001 national champion Hurricanes led the nation in pass efficiency defense, scoring defense and turnover margin. That team also established a school record with 27 interceptions and 45 total takeaways. Stoops’ 2002 secondary led the nation in pass defense and pass efficiency defense.

Through the education we provide, the creative research we conduct, and the care and service we render, we are the university for Kentucky — the institution our Commonwealth has charged with asking and addressing the most penetrating questions confronting our state and her people, the vexations that challenge us in education, economic development, health care, and cultural and societal advance. what does that commitment mean to you? it means that from day one on our campus you can study with faculty who are leaders in their fields. You can walk 10 minutes in any direction and work with a world-class clinician, chemist, historian, poet, engineer, business specialist and others. we hold fast to our first priority — the development of our students, the young men and women who come here with bright, uncompromising potential and who we expect to leave here ready to lead lives of leadership, meaning and purpose. we have a deep sense of service, along with an uncommon position as both the state’s flagship and land-grant institution. strong linkages exist among graduate education, academic research and our clinical medical enterprise. Those partnerships have helped build a nationally respected medical center that increasingly provides access to advanced subspecialty care for those most in need across the state and region. Together, our campus is at the forefront of creativity and discovery. uK is currently one of only 22 public institutions with a trifecta of federal designations of excellence — for aging, in cancer and with respect to translational science. we F have been home or educational proving ground for nobel laureates and the national Book Award winner; state poet laureates and winners of the pulitzer prize. Our faculty members across disciplines are working in communities to improve cancer-screening rates; are using the latest computational science technology to unlock the treasures of the dead sea scrolls in paris; or are providing their skills to improve drinking water in Central and south America. To support our work, the university is investing more than $1.7 billion in its academic, research, health care, athletic and community infrastructure, the vast majority of which is the result of private fund-raising efforts, public-private partnerships, and the support of university athletics. The physical transformation — combined with our traditional mission of service, discovery and teaching — has given us a sense of momentum and a renewed sense of purpose. Our campus is the Commonwealth. Though we are in and of lexington, we have a footprint through our extension network in all 120 Kentucky counties. Our health care enterprise partners with 170 clinical outreach practices reaching some 4,300 beds. The economic impact of our research exceeds $580 million, creates jobs, generates tax revenue and addresses the seemingly intractable challenges we face. As an institution, collectively, we represent a powerful pairing of global reach, but enduring commitment to one state. we have a vision to be one of the handful of truly outstanding residential public research campuses in the united states, a special place that elevates a Commonwealth and impacts a larger world beyond its borders. we invite you to come see blue with us.

Barnhart was one of four division i Ads named ncAA division i Athletics director of the year in June at the annual convention of the national Association of collegiate directors of Athletics. Barnhart was one of four finalists for the Athletics director of the year as chosen by the SportsBusiness Journal. And, in february, Barnhart received the sports Business Award from the Bluegrass sports commission. it is no coincidence that Barnhart’s multiple accolades came in the same year as the completion of his 15 by 15 by 15 Plan, an ambitious blueprint set in 2008 in which Kentucky would rank in the nation’s top 15 athletic programs and win 15 conference or national championships by 2015. At the same time, Barnhart set a goal of a 3.0 composite grade-point average for UK student-athletes and an even greater commitment to community service by Wildcat athletes and staff. the academic goal was first achieved in the spring semester of 2010 and has an active streak of six consecutive 3.0 semesters, hitting a peak in spring 2014 with a school-record 3.218 composite GPA. community service has risen to more than 4,000 hours annually and includes outreach to the lexington area, the state and as far away as ethiopia. the directors’ cup objective was reached a year early when UK ranked at a school-record no. 11 in the 2013-14 national all-sports standings. the Wildcats followed with a no. 22 ranking in 2014-15, marking the third consecutive year that UK landed in the top 25. the final goal was reached in March when UK men’s basketball claimed the southeastern conference tournament title, the 15th championship won by Wildcat athletes since 2008. Barnhart’s 15 by 15 by 15 Plan started by providing funds for full coaching staffs and scholarship allotments for all 22 UK sports. M MITCH BARNHART (right) received the Jim Host Sports Business Award. next, Barnhart constructed new facilities, including the Joe craft center; new stadiums for track and field, softball and soccer; the UK Golf house; and the Wildcat coal lodge dormitory. commonwealth stadium recently completed major renovations and a new football practice/office complex is underway. A new baseball stadium and indoor tennis facility are on the drawing board. All totaled, Barnhart has completed or is in the process of approximately $297 million of facility construction. UK Athletics has remained financially self-sufficient under Barnhart’s management, operating with a balanced budget and with the help of no state or University funds. seeing pressing facility needs on campus as well, Barnhart has made a $65 million commitment for athletics to fund nearly two-thirds of the new Academic science Building. he also directs an annual $1.7-million contribution to the University’s scholarship program. Barnhart is a native of Kansas city, Kan. he earned his bachelor’s degree from ottawa University (Kansas) in 1981 and a master’s in sports administration from ohio University. Barnhart’s family includes his wife, connie; three children, Blaire, scott, and Kirby Willoughby; Kirby’s husband, McKenzie, and a grandson, cooper. BACK We give you more primary care options.

W I L D C AT F O O T BA L L The OFFICIAL DIGITAL GAMEDAY GUIDE 15 HISTORY AND TRADITIONS p a g e a N t R y O f B I g B l U e N at I O N COLORS the University of Kentucky adopted blue and white as its official colors in 1892. UK students had first decided on blue and light yellow before the Kentucky-Centre football game Dec. 19, 1891. the yellow was soon dropped from the combination and replaced by white. the particular Kentucky shade of blue, close to royal blue, was determined without ceremony. after settling on the base colors, a student posed the logical question, “What color blue?” letterman Richard Stoll looked down at his necktie and raised it to the air. the vote was unanimous. So Kentucky blue is really Stoll necktie blue. GOAL POSTS the Commonwealth Stadium goal posts have been torn down twice since it opened in 1973. they were first toppled in 1997 following Kentucky’s 40-34 overtime win over alabama. It was UK’s first victory over the tide in 75 years. “If I weren’t so old, I’d have torn them down myself,” said then-UK athletics Director C.M. Newton. It happened again in 2006 after the Wildcats’ dramatic 24-20 triumph over georgia, but that should be the last time. Citing safety concerns, UK has installed collapsible goal posts, which will prevent repeats of the popular — but potentially dangerous — celebration ritual. CHEERLEADERS the Kentucky cheerleading squad won an unprecedented 20th national cheerleading championship in 2014 at the competition sponsored by the Universal Cheerleaders association. the cheerleaders also won the UCa national title in 1985, 1987, 1988, 1992, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2012 and have been the runners-up on six occasions. Jomo thompson is the coach of the cheerleaders and t. lynn Williamson is the cheerleader adviser. GOVERNOR’S CUP the governor’s Cup was created in 1994 as the trophy for the winner of the Kentuckylouisville game. Donated by Kroger at a cost of $23,000, the governor’s Cup stands 33 inches tall and weighs 110 pounds. the trophy’s base and upright columns are hand-milled black marble. the glass components are composed of Optic-grade crystal. all metal parts are 23-karat, gold-plated brass. the cup itself is solid pewter with a 23karat gold-plated finish. the cup was designed by Kendall Costner and sculpted by James Corcoran of Bruce fox, Inc. the Kentucky-louisville series was renewed in 1994 with the Wildcats winning the game, 20-14. NATIONAL Champions Kentucky is the 1950 national champion, according to Jeff Sagarin, who handles computer ratings for USA Today. In 1950, the national champions were decided after the regular season but before the bowl games, preventing the No. 7-ranked Wildcats from receiving credit for knocking off No. 1-ranked Oklahoma, 13-7, in the Sugar Bowl. Sagarin, who has handled computer ratings since the 1970s, reconstructed earlier seasons so that bowl games could be taken into account. His analysis indicates that UK was the Sagarin Ratings national champion for the 1950 season. BACK ® For protection you can depend on, call Shelter today. Now that’s a game plan.

Commandant philip Carbusier, then head of the military department of old State university, told a group of students in a chapel service following the game that the Kentucky football team had “fought like wildcats.” the moniker “Wildcats” became increasingly popular and the university since adopted it as its official nickname. THE ROADCATS “the Kentucky roadcats rV Club” is a group of Wildcat fans who own rVs and get together to follow the team on road trips. the club was established in 1999 and has had more than 100 members. the roadcats also sponsor scholarships each year for the team’s student managers and/or student athletic trainers. the roadcats’ officers are ron and Donna Mcgohn (presidents), Becky Mcgaughey (vice president), Jane floyd (treasurer) and Kathy adams (secretary). in addition to their support of the football team, the roadcats also have had events for basketball and baseball games. CAWOOD LEDFORD the legendary “Voice of the Wildcats” was Cawood ledford. for 39 years, ledford called Kentucky football and men’s basketball. His voice alone symbolized uK athletics. ledford called his last uK football game nov. 23, 1991, vs. tennessee, and retired from the microphone following the 1991-92 basketball season. WILDCAT MASCOT the Wildcat costumed mascot originated during the 1976-77 academic year at the university of Kentucky. gary tanner was the first Wildcat to dance and entertain crowds at Commonwealth Stadium and rupp arena. today, the Wildcat mascot also attends academic functions and serves as a friendly ambassador for the university. in the early 1980s, Wildcat mascot terry Barney began the tradition of doing a one-arm pushup for each of Kentucky’s points in front of the student section at Commonwealth Stadium after every Wildcat score. Scratch, another costumed mascot, was unveiled in 1996. NAT NORTHINGTON nat northington of louisville became the first african-american player to sign with the university of Kentucky and a Southeastern Conference institution. northington signed a national letterof-intent with uK in December 1965. He later became the first african-american football player to play in an SeC game, appearing in the uK-ole Miss game in lexington on Sept. 30, 1967. THE IMMORTALS Simply known as “the immortals,” the 1898 university of Kentucky football squad remains the only undefeated, untied and unscored upon Wildcat club in school history. “the immortals” outscored opponents 180-0 while posting a 7-0 record. roscoe Severs served as team captain under coach W.r. Bass. PAUL “BEAR” BRYANT paul “Bear” Bryant won more games than any other coach in uK football history. Bryant spent eight years in lexington (1946-53) and produced an impressive 60-23-5 record. He led the Wildcats to four bowl games and their first SeC title in 1950.

I PRINCIPLES OF INSTITUTIONAL RESPONSIBILITY the institution’s responsibility for the conduct of its intercollegiate athletics program includes responsibility for the actions of its staff members and for the actions of any other individual or organization engaged in activities promoting the athletics interests of the institution. the ncaa defines an individual as a representative of athletics interests or a “booster” if he or she: • has participated in or is a member of an agency or organization promoting UK’s intercollegiate athletics program; • makes or has made a donation to any of the UK men’s or women’s athletics programs; • is assisting or has been requested by the UK athletics Department staff to assist in the recruitment of prospects (which he or she is not permitted to do); • is assisting or has been requested to provide benefits to enrolled student-athletes or their families (which he or she is not permitted to do); • is the parent or legal guardian of an enrolled student-athlete; or • has been involved otherwise in promoting the UK athletics program. a person is considered a representative of athletics interests of the University of Kentucky just by being an alumnus, friend or fan of the University, regardless of whether he or she has made a financial contribution to the University and/or the intercollegiate athletics program. Remember, a representative of athletics interests is responsible for making the University of Kentucky’s compliance office aware of any potential violations of ncaa rules he or she knows have occurred. according to the ncaa, once an individual has been identified as an athletics representative, he or she retains this identity forever, even if that person no longer contributes to the athletics program. PRINCIPLES OF RULES COMPLIANCE the athletics compliance office works to identify and reduce areas of risk within the athletics program that could negatively impact the University of Kentucky. if a problem arises, it is the responsibility of the athletics compliance office to determine how the problem occurred, how it could have been prevented and how to reduce the chances of it occurring in the future. the two main functions of the athletics compliance office are to educate and monitor. the compliance staff meets regularly with coaches and student-athletes to provide information and materials on the applications of the complexities of the ncaa bylaws and at the same time provide as much information as possible to the University of Kentucky community. the staff also monitors the functions of the athletics department that are governed by ncaa legislation. a misconception about the role of the athletics compliance office is that because UK has an athletics compliance office, no problems will occur. Unfortunately, this is not the case. many people are involved in the operation of an athletics program who make decisions daily that affect the program positively or negatively. Just as having a fire station does not prevent fires from occurring, a compliance office cannot stop violations from occurring within an athletics program. all components within an athletics program must work together and each function properly, effectively and efficiently to insure compliance. it must be a shared responsibility. each person interested in UK athletics assists the athletics program by knowing and complying with ncaa rules.
