Three Decades of Excellence UH-Manoa Policy on Gender Equity in Intercollegiate Athletics Gender equity in athletics extends the doctrine of fairness to all areas of athletic activity at the University level. It is activated by a sense of moral obligation that exceeds any specific duty to comply with legal requirements, although it also recognizes the necessity of observing the tenets of the Patsy Mink Act. Its desired effect is to offer women and men equal opportunities to participate in sports for which there is demonstrated interest among athletes in Hawai‘i and to provide equitable levels of support for coaching, travel, scholarships, operating expenses and facilities used. Beyond these specific goals, gender equity also fosters an attitude and establishes an environment in which men’s and women’s sports are encouraged in comparable ways. Those who support gender equity are willing to cooperate in frequent selfevaluations and to implement change so that all student-athletes can have the same opportunity to realize the highest level of their abilities. A copy of the plan titled, “Just Do It,” is available in the Athletics Director’s Office. 1 04 wvb media guide.qxp 8/18/2004 8:41 AM Page 2 GOVERNOR’S MESSAGE OFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR I wish to extend my best wishes and warmest aloha to the University of Hawai‘i’s student-athletes, coaches, and staff for their outstanding achievements. Our state takes great pride in the accomplishments of our intercollegiate athletics program, and we look forward to another year of fast-paced and exciting play. UH sports teams are enjoying a level of success unparalleled in the University’s history. Last season, the Warrior football team earned its third bowl appearance under the direction of head coach June Jones, and competed in a number of other nationally televised games. The men’s basketball team advanced to postseason play for the fourth consecutive year, making a dramatic run at the National Invitation Tournament title. And the women’s volleyball team, vying for its fifth national title, reached the semifinals of the NCAA Championship. We are also proud of the University of Hawai‘i’s commitment to academics -- our student-athletes excel in the classroom as well as in sports competitions. They are also exemplary role models who generously donate their time to numerous community activities. At the conclusion of their college careers, many of these student-athletes have made it into the professional ranks or gone on to become leaders in other fields. Such accomplishments enhance the University’s overall international reputation. On behalf of the people of Hawai‘i, I commend the UH Athletics program for its unwavering commitment to excellence, and I extend my best wishes for continued success in the coming year.

The office’s primary function is to provide all the relevant media outlets with information in an accurate and timely manner. Although mainly a service to Hawai‘i’s local television, radio, newspaper, magazine and Internet organizations, the Sports Media Relations Office also provides services to national and international media. Since its beginning in 1970, the Sports Media Relations Office has served as the central location for the dissemination of information. Since then, as the UH athletics program has grown and media interest has increased, the role of the Sports Media Relations Office has become much more significant. Information on past and present athletes, photos and statistics are all kept on file in the Sports Media Relations Office. Along with its services to the media, the Sports Media Relations Office also provides information to University of Hawai‘i fans worldwide through its Athletics Department homepage (HawaiiAthletics.com). The website showcases all of the University’s 19 intercollegiate sports programs. The Sports Media Relations Office staff updates the website, which is maintained by Troy Yamamoto, one of the first full-time Internet specialists in collegiate athletics. The site provides information on teams, players and coaches, along with statistics, schedules and history. It is also used as a tool for promoting student-athletes for national awards. Another vehicle distributing information about Hawai‘i’s athletics programs is media guides that are produced for each sport annually by the staff and students. The media guides contain information on the team, players, coaches, and history, as well as facts, statistics and superlatives on respective programs. These guides are a vital source of information to the media and are used by the UH coaching staffs as a tool in recruiting and promoting the University and its programs. The Sports Media Relations Office is comprised of an eight-member staff and several student assistants, headed by director Lois Manin. For the past 14 years – nine as director – Manin has been a part of the world of intercollegiate athletics. She has experienced many memorable moments in the athletics department, including the record-setting men’s basketball team that drew national attention for its back-to-back 21-win seasons, the 1999 football team that experienced the biggest turnaround in NCAA history, and the 2003 softball WAC Championship. The current Sports Media Relations staff has more than 40 years of combined experience in collegiate athletics at UH. In an effort to keep the office focused on both short- and long-term goals, the full-time staff devised a Strategic Plan in 1996 to significantly increase customer satisfaction and be recognized as one of the top three media relations departments in the Western Athletic Conference.

Since its launch in 1996, the website has evolved from a primary source of news to a multifaceted hub for UH athletics. With just a click of a mouse, people can search for information on UH Athletics, track live stats, purchase tickets for upcoming sporting events, listen to live radio broadcasts of UH sports, purchase memorabilia, and watch live web television broadcasts. In the summer of 2004, the UH Athletics Department launched a new version of the website that includes a new design, additional feature stories and photos, and an e-mail club, which will keep UH fans up-to-date with the latest news, events and special promotions. The redesign comes on the heels of the recent ticketing system upgrade, which has allowed fans to purchase tickets in real time, selecting seats on-the-spot, including seats being sold at ticket windows. The website, which averages over 5,000 “individual visits” a day, continues its vital role of providing information on teams, players, coaches, and facilities, as well as an overview of the UH Athletics Department. Results of UH sporting events are posted moments after completion of the event. Schedules, statistics, press releases, and game recaps can also be found on the website. Troy Yamamoto, one of the first full-time Internet specialists in collegiate athletics, is responsible for maintaining the technical aspects of the UH Athletics website, while the Sports Media Relations staff and students provide website content with continuous updates.

The Sports Media Relations Office will follow up with weekly releases during the fall season to keep the media informed about the Rainbow Wahine volleyball team. All players and coaches will be available for interviews before or after practice during the fall season. Although interviews are permitted after practice, interviews before practice are recommended.

With 10 members in Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Idaho, Nevada, California and Hawai‘i, the Commissioner WAC continues to build upon Karl Benson its most recent success. The WAC provides its student-athletes the chance to travel to scenic destinations and gain exposure in some of the nation’s largest and most accessible media markets. In addition, the academic reputation of many of the WAC schools is unparalleled, with some of the nation’s most respected institutions of higher learning among the WAC ranks. This season marks the 43rd for the WAC, making it the sixth oldest among the nation’s 11 Division I-A conferences. Its history traces back to 1962, when the original six-team league was created. Charter members were Arizona, Arizona State, Brigham Young, New Mexico, Utah and Wyoming. The WAC began operation with the 196263 academic year, and several changes have occurred since. UTEP and Colorado State became members in September 1967, while Arizona and Arizona State withdrew on June 30, 1978. Other membership additions included San Diego State (July 1, 1978); Hawai‘i (July 1, 1979); Air Force (July 1, 1980); Fresno State (July 1, 1992); UNLV, Rice, San Jose State, SMU, TCU and Tulsa (July 1, 1996); and Nevada (July 1, 2000). Air Force, Brigham Young, Colorado State, UNLV, New Mexico, San Diego State, Utah and Wyoming withdrew on June 30, 1999. Boise State and Louisiana Tech became WAC members on July 1, 2001, while TCU withdrew following the 2000-01 season. More moves will take place on July 1, 2005, when Idaho, New Mexico State and Utah State join the WAC while Rice, SMU, UTEP and Tulsa withdraw from the conference. The WAC began competition with 10 sports, including football, basketball, track and field, baseball, wrestling, swimming, tennis, golf, cross country and gymnastics. The first championship was held in November 1962, when Arizona won the men’s cross country title. New Mexico followed with the first WAC football title. Arizona finished second in the NCAA College World Series and, less than three years later, Arizona State claimed the league’s first NCAA title when the Sun Devils won the College World Series trophy. Rice won the College World Series in 2003. Before July 1, 1990, the WAC sponsored championships only in men’s sports. However, a merger with the High Country Athletic Conference formed a single conference under one administrative structure, and the 1990-91 athletic year was the first in which both men and women competed under the WAC name. Presently, the WAC crowns team and individual champions in 18 sports - eight men’s and 10 women’s. For the men, there are championships in baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, tennis, indoor track and field and outdoor track and field. Championships for women are held in basketball, cross country, golf, soccer, softball, swimming and diving, tennis, indoor track and field, outdoor track and field and volleyball. The WAC office has been located in the Denver area since the conference’s inception, with the exception of a two-year stay in Phoenix from 1964-66.

Nearly every home match is televised (KFVE-TV) and broadcast (KKEA-Sports & Talk Radio) live throughout the state, including almost all of the road matches. Rainbow Wahine volleyball is covered regularly in local television news and newspapers, as well as in national publications. Over the past year, the Rainbow Wahine received considerable coverage in national magazines, including Kim Willoughby earning Sports Illustrated On Campus’ Women’s Volleyball Player of the Year honors (top left) and Sports Illustrated On Campus doing a four-page article on UH athletics, featuring Kanoe Kamana‘o (top middle). Hana Hou!, the in-flight magazine of Hawaiian Airlines, did a seven-page article on volleyball in Hawai‘i (top right), featuring Lily Kahumoku, while Volleyball magazine (bottom) regularly featured the UH program, with articles last season on the volleyball craze in the state, the tough travel schedule for the Rainbow Wahine and even a story on incoming recruit Tara Hittle, among others.

Shoji was just 28 years old with no clue that he would turn a one-year-old program into a national powerhouse for the next three decades. “I don’t think that anybody could’ve envisioned what women’s volleyball would be like in 30 years when I started in 1975,” Shoji said. “It has evolved not only at UH but around the country from what used to be kind of a cult sport, with a small fraternity of players around the country, into a major team sport. To play in front of crowds of 7,000 on a regular basis; I don’t think that ever crossed anyone’s mind back then.” The team was coming off a 9-1 campaign in 1974 that ended with the Rainbow Wahine falling to UCLA in the national title match at the AIAW Championships. In Shoji’s first four years at the head of the program, he would take the team to two more national title matches before they finally broke through to take the title in 1979 with a five-game victory over Utah State in the AIAW finals. It was the school’s first-ever team national championship and a sign of great things to come for the young program. In 1981, Shoji became the first fulltime coach for a women’s program at UH. He led the team to another national title, this time in the new NCAA Tournament in 1982, beating the USC Women of Troy in a come-from-behind, five-game thriller. Shoji would lead the team to another title in 1983 with a straight-set win over UCLA, becoming the first school to win back-to-back national championships. The Rainbow Wahine again returned to the national championship match in 1987, capping a 37-2 season with a sweep of Stanford for the program’s fourth national title and third NCAA title. “When I look back to think what was the most memorable or my fondest memories, I’d have to say it was the Klum Gym era,” Shoji remembered. “That’s where it all started. We had some unbelievable matches there from 1977 to the early 1990s. There were some unforgettable moments, against the likes of Long Beach State, UCLA and Pacific that the whole state will always remember. I think the experiences at Klum are the reasons that we get the kind of crowds now at the Stan Sheriff. Klum Gym is where the state of Hawai‘i fell in love with volleyball.” The team would fall to Texas in the 1988 national championship match and again to Stanford in 1996. They have yet to reach the pinnacle of a national title since. The Rainbow Wahine experienced another great run of success that started with the 1998 season, as transfer Heather Bown led the team from a perennial top 25 squad and NCAA Tournament team to again a national title contender. Hawai‘i made its way to the NCAA Regional Finals in 1998 and was one of the top seeds in the tournament before a scrappy Texas A&M team beat UH in the NCAA Regionals in 1999. Following that season, a player from Louisiana named Kim Willoughby came to the program, joining Lily Kahumoku, who was already establishing herself as one of the best players in the country, to form a dynamic duo that would lead the team to great success for another four years. From 2000 to ’03, the Rainbow Wahine advanced to the NCAA Championships national semifinal match three times, while Shoji’s 2003 senior class became the winningest class in school history. “I think it’ll be fun to kind of start it all up again, trying to build another team that we hope will compete at the highest level,” Shoji added. “The intent is to get us back to being one of the top five teams in the Three Decades of Excellence 04 wvb media guide.qxp 8/24/2004 4:37 PM Page 13 HEAD COACH DAVE SHOJI country again, soon. I just hope that the fans will stay with us through our growing pains as we work towards getting back to the final four.” Under Shoji, UH volleyball finished in the Top 10 in 18 of the 22 final AVCA polls, finishing in the top five 14 times. They have made it to the post-season in all but one year, finishing with a winning record in all 29 seasons. Along with the milestone of coaching his 30th season at UH, Shoji also will coach his 1,000th match as head coach of the Rainbow Wahine program vs. Pepperdine on Sept. 25. “I guess time really does fly when you’re having fun,” joked Shoji. “It’s great to see the success that has come not only to Hawai‘i volleyball, but also to the sport as a whole. Now good players come from all over the country. It’s gone from a regional sport to a national sport. “The future looks bright as volleyball is turning into one of the biggest women’s sports in the country. I can see a day in the near future where there are going to be more and more volleyball programs around the country that will become revenue producers for their universities.” Shoji was a three-sport athlete at Upland High School in California, playing football, basketball and baseball.

He finished his first season with a 16-2 record, falling again to UCLA in the national championship match, 14-12 and 15-11. In his fifth season at the helm, Shoji picked up win No. 100 against rival USC, 15-4 and 15-11, in the 1979 UCLA/National Invitational Tournament in Los Angeles, on Nov. 3, 1979. But picking up his 100th victory fell in comparison to Shoji’s big accomplishment in 1979, giving the University of Hawai‘i its first-ever team national championship, as they beat Utah State in a five-game thriller, 8-15, 7-15, 15-9, 16-14 and 15-12, in the AIAW National Championship match. Shoji’s squad ended with a final record of 36-5. 1979 1982 It didn’t take long for Shoji to return his Rainbow Wahine to the national spotlight as UH won its second national championship and first NCAA title with another five-game victory against USC (14-16, 9-15, 15-13, 15-10, 15-12) in the NCAA Championship match in Stockton, Calif. Along the way, the eighth-year coach went on to collect his 200th victory against UCLA in Pacific’s Wendy’s Classic on Oct. 29. Shoji led his team back to the NCAA Championships, this time as the favorites, as they swept through Stanford and then UCLA to win their second-straight NCAA title. The team ended up with a 34-2 record, as they were 104-5 in the first three years of NCAA competition. 1985 1983 UH gave Shoji his 300th career victory on Oct. 10, 1985, in Los Angeles, as they beat Pepperdine, 15-13, 9-15 and 15-12, at the 1985 UCLA/NIVT. In the tournament, Hawai‘i finished with a 5-1 record. Shoji led the Rainbow Wahine to its fourth national title with an overall record of 37-2. UH hosted an NCAA Regional for the first time, beating Cal Poly and Pacific to advance to the NCAA Championships in Indianapolis. After beating Illinois in the national semifinal match, the Rainbow Wahine beat Stanford, 15-10, 15-10, 9-15 and 15-1, to earn the crown. Although the senior class of Reydan Ahuna, Suzanne Eagye, Mahina Eleneki and Diana Jessie, played an integral part in UH’s success, it was sophomore sensation Teee Williams who led Hawai‘i to the title while being named the national player of the year. 1987 Shoji took his team for a pair of non-conference matches at Wyoming and Colorado State during the 1988 season. On Oct. 21, at Wyoming, the Rainbow Wahine won, 15-6, 15-9 and 15-9, to earn Shoji win No. 400 in his career.

That would be a good start to what would be a tough season for Hawai‘i, as they became the only team in Shoji’s career to not make the NCAA Tournament with a record of 15-12. In his team’s first year against WAC competition, Shoji celebrated his first WAC win with his 600th overall victory, beating Fresno State on Sept. 20. Later that season, Shoji led his team back to the NCAA Championships for the first time in eight years before falling to Stanford in the NCAA title match. 1999 1996 On Oct. 30, Fresno State again played victim to a Shoji milestone as he picked up win No. 700 in Fresno, Calif., with a 15-3, 15-5, 15-10 victory. The team had high hopes of returning to the NCAA Championships, which were held in Honolulu that season, but the team was upset by Texas A&M in the NCAA Regionals. Hawai‘i got back to the NCAA Championships in 2000, led by sophomore All-American Lily Kahumoku. In the national semifinal match, the Rainbow Wahine found themselves in a battle with undefeated and top-ranked Nebraska. UH fell in four games, 3-15, 12-15, 15-9 and 1015, to the eventual national champion Cornhuskers in Richmond, Va. 2000 In his quest for a seventh trip to the NCAA Championships, Shoji found himself on the road against two familiar foes, Brigham Young and Utah, late in the 2002 season. The Rainbow Wahine swept BYU in Provo before giving Shoji win No. 800 on Nov. 27, just two days before Thanksgiving. Shoji had a lot to be thankful for that year as he became just the fourth women’s volleyball coach to ever reach the 800-milestone. Hawai‘i would again advance to the national semifinal match before bowing out to the defending national champion Stanford Cardinal, 25-30, 27-30 and 24-30, in New Orleans. 2002 The Rainbow Wahine advanced to their eighth NCAA Championships overall and third in four years in 2003, going to Dallas with a senior-laden team. Although Hawai‘i fell short of their goal of a fifth national title, losing in four games to Florida, the Rainbow Wahine did reel off its third-highest win total with 36 victories. Kim Willoughby became the fourth Rainbow Wahine to win national player of the year honors while Kanoe Kamana‘o was the first UH player to be named the national freshman of the year. 2003 Shoji enters his 30th season at UH as the third winningest coach in NCAA history with 840 wins, while holding a .849 winning percentage that is the best among active coaches. He will also have his 1,000th match coached at UH to look forward to, Sept. 25 vs. Pepperdine, fittingly, after an alumnae match. 2004 Three Decades of Excellence 15 04 wvb media guide.qxp 8/18/2004 8:44 AM Page 16 ASSOCIATE HEAD COACH Charlie Wade enters his 10th season with the Rainbow Wahine volleyball staff, fifth as an associate head coach.

Hawai‘i’s recruiting classes have been consistently ranked among the top 10 in the country. “He continues to recruit the top athletes in the country,” added Shoji. “I’m confident to say that he’s one of the top associate head coaches in the country, and I’m glad that we’ve been able to retain him as long as we have.” Wade started his coaching career as a club coach in 1986. He founded the Magnum Volleyball Club, which was regarded by many collegiate coaches as one of the top junior programs in the country. He was the head coach of the Anaheim, Calif., club and coached eventual Rainbow Wahine standouts Kristal Attwood, Kee Williams, Sarah Chase, Heather Bown and Jessica Sudduth. 16 He also founded the Southern California Volleyball Institute in 1993 and served as the executive director. The 17,000-square-foot volleyball training facility features four courts, offices, weight and training rooms and a pro shop. Wade broke into collegiate coaching in the late 1980s and served as an assistant coach at Cal State Fullerton for two years while finishing school. He eventually earned his bachelor’s degree in kinesiology in 1991. In his first five years with the Hawai‘i program, Wade also coached the Rainbow Asics club team, where he coached former Rainbow Wahine players Lily Kahumoku, Nohea Tano, Margaret Vakasausau, Aven Lee, Tehani Miyashiro and Shelly Kim. Also on his teams were former Minnesota setter and current U.S. national team member Lindsey Berg and former Loyola Marymount standout Kealani Kimball. Wade was born in Redondo Beach, Calif. He moved many times in his youth before ending up in Indiana, where he graduated from Warsaw Community High School in 1981. Wade is married to former Kaiser High School and University of Washington player Tani Martin. The couple lives in Kailua and are expecting their first child in the fall.

While at UH, Tsuji started the “Warrior to Warrior Program,” which helps incoming UH Manoa freshmen from Waiakea adjust to collegiate life. He recently was the assistant coach to the Pilipa‘a volleyball club team from Hilo this past summer, helping the team earn the Boys National Championship at the Junior Olympics in Austin, Texas. He was also the co-founder, along with former UH AllAmerican Lily Kahumoku, of the “Mok-Tsu” volleyball camps that were held on the neighbor islands during the summer and was the head coach of the “Rusty Wahine” volleyball team that claimed the Haili Volleyball Women’s AA title. The team was made up of former Rainbow Wahine volleyball players, including Lauren Duggins, Nohea Tano, Jennifer Carey and Melissa Villaroman. Tsuji is from Hilo, but currently resides in Manoa. He enjoys going to the beach. Renae Shigemura begins her fourth year as the trainer for the women’s volleyball program.

She enjoys playing tennis and golf. Three Decades of Excellence 04 wvb media guide.qxp 8/18/2004 8:44 AM Page 19 SEASON OUTLOOK After their second-straight trip to the NCAA Championships in 2003, the Rainbow Wahine will undergo one of their biggest rebuilding processes as seven seniors left UH after the 2003 season. The seven accumulated 18 all-WAC honors, four WAC Player of the Year awards, seven All-American certificates and one National Player of the Year Award. To say that Hawai‘i lost a lot would be an understatement, but to say that the cupboards in Dave Shoji’s program are bare in his 30th season at the helm would also be wrong. In what might be the youngest team in program history, the Rainbow Wahine will boast a record eight freshmen on the roster of 16, to go along with three sophomores, three juniors and two seniors. But there is light at the end of the tunnel as UH returns 2003 AVCA Freshman of the Year Kanoe Kamana‘o (5-8, Honolulu), along with three years of top-notch recruits who have been patiently waiting their turn to shine. “This will be one of the youngest teams we’ve ever put on the court,” Shoji said. “It reminds me of the 1984, ’88 and ’97 teams that followed big senior classes. “There really isn’t a goal in mind in terms of wins, but we’re just hoping to show improvement throughout the season. If we stay competitive, play hard and stay mentally tough, the wins will take care of itself.” The schedule again pits the Rainbow Wahine against some of the best programs in the country. Nine of their first 10 matches are against teams that participated in the 2003 NCAA Tournament. Following the tough slate early on, UH will look to win their ninthstraight WAC title but will face a big challenge as four of the top teams in the conference in 2003 – Fresno State, Nevada, Southern Methodist and Rice – return most of their starters. SETTER Setting will not be a question mark for Hawai‘i in 2004 as Kamana‘o returns after an AllAmerican campaign in which she also earned AVCA National Freshman of the Year accolades. “Kanoe has a good understanding of the game,” said Shoji. “She shows a lot of natural instincts that comes from her playing a lot of volleyball thus far in her life. At 58, she plays a lot bigger than her size, especially as a solid blocker. Add the fact Three Decades of Excellence that she is a wonderful defender and it makes her a great allaround volleyball player.” Kamana‘o will have a new set of responsibilities in 2004 as Hawai‘i will look to change their offense with fasterpaced setting. “She’ll have to take a more active role,” Shoji added. “Kanoe’s going to have to be more creative and take a lot more risks in order to isolate the hitters more than she did Cayley Thurlby last year. We’re also going to change our offense and speed up the tempo of our attack, and Kanoe will be the centerpiece of it all.” Fellow sophomore Cayley Thurlby (5-11, Naperville, IL) will again serve as Kamana‘o’s backup at setter in 2004. Thurlby saw a lot of time on the court in 2003, playing in 30 of the 38 matches, averaging 3.11 assists per game. “Cayley gives us a really good backup at the setter position,” Shoji said. “If needed, we’re confident that she can also set this team at a high level. We will probably also use Cayley in some situations down the stretch of games to give us a bigger hitter in the front row. She also has good defensive skills that we may utilize. She’s just a great allaround player, and we’ll try to get her on the floor somehow.” MIDDLE HITTER Kanoe Kamana‘o There are four players who will compete for the two starting middle hitter spots while two incoming freshmen also look to be a factor early on. The group is led by captain Melody Eckmier (6-3, Simi Valley, CA), who is entering her fifth season with the Rainbow Wahine. “She has done a lot for the program Melody Eckmier 19 04 wvb media guide.qxp 8/18/2004 8:45 AM Page 20 SEASON OUTLOOK Victoria Prince over the last four seasons,” Shoji exclaimed. “She’s earned the right to compete for a starting spot. Melody can give us solid blocking and a little offense, along with experience and leadership for this young team.” Victoria Prince (6-0, Kennewick, WA) comes to Hawai‘i as a transfer from Washington State, where she started her sophomore year and earned AllNCAA Regional honors at the Florida Regional in 2002. “She’s got a lot of skills,” Shoji said. “We’re going to try to utilize her in the best way possible. Prince is a very good blocker and once she gets more comfortable with our system on offense, I can see her doing a lot of good things. She has as much game experience as anyone on the team, and I can see her getting into the mix early on. “She has more game than any of our other hitters at this point. She reminds me a lot of (Lauren) Duggins and (Nohea) Tano. She’s really fast on her feet.” The two other contenders for the middle hitter positions are redshirt freshmen Juliana Sanders (6-2, Kaneohe, Oahu) and Kari Gregory (6-2, Las Vegas). Both earned valuable experience in practices with the team in 2003 and got a lot of court time during the spring of 2004. “Sanders could be in the mix for a starting job,” Shoji said. “She’s got great athletic ability, good range and a good vertical jump. She just really needs experience. I hope she will get enough repetitions to get her comfortable on the court. She could be really good if she can continue to progress the way she has thus far. “Gregory is another young player who needs development, both technically and experience. But she is a big, strong athlete and should be able to help us down the road.” Nickie Thomas (6-3, Austin, TX) comes in full of accolades in high school as an all-state performer in Texas while earning Volleyball magazine Fab-50 honors. “Nickie Thomas is kind of an unknown factor for us,” Shoji said. “We really haven’t seen her play in quite some time. She’s got a great volleyball body. She’s long and lean. I hope we can develop her into a good player also. She’s very raw, giving us something to work with.” OUTSIDE HITTER Three players will vie for the two starting left-side hitter spots. One of the three will eventually find herself competing for the starting job 20 on the right side. Junior Susie Boogaard (6-2, Bellflower, CA), sophomore Alicia Arnott (6-0, Hilo, Hawai‘i) and incoming freshman Tara Hittle (6-0, Colorado Springs, CO) will compete from the start of two-a-day practices. “We have three left-side hitters that will also be looked at to play on the right,” Shoji revealed. “Between Arnott, Boogaard and Hittle, the three will all get a Alicia Arnott shot to play some on the left or right.” Arnott played in 63 games in 2003, averaging 1.25 kills per game and 1.30 digs per game while adding 0.32 aces per game, which ranked second on the team. “Alicia has a very live arm,” Shoji exclaimed. “She’s physically very strong, but just needs some added experience. She’s improving defensively and has the skills necessary to get the job done. She just needs more reps.” Boogaard played in all but five matches in her first two seasons with the Rainbow Wahine, averaging 1.37 kills per game, 0.96 digs per game and 0.49 blocks per game while splitting time as a left-side and right-side hitter. “Susie has the most experience of any of our outsides,” Shoji said. “She’s been out there a lot and has played in a lot of big matches. She’s probably our best passer as well, so she’ll need to be in the mix somewhere. Susie needs to work on terminating (the ball) better. She had a really good spring and will be looked at to carry a heavier load this season.” Hittle is coming off a decorated prep career where she was named the Gatorade Girls’ Volleyball State Player of the Year in Colorado while being named to the Volleyball Magazine Fab-50 list. Susie Boogaard Three Decades of Excellence 04 wvb media guide.qxp 8/18/2004 8:45 AM Page 21 SEASON OUTLOOK “Hittle is the most dynamic of the three,” Shoji said. “She’s quick and has a great vertical. She’s relatively inexperienced though and she’ll need to learn quickly to get on the court early on. But she has a lot of enthusiasm and a lot of energy and will definitely help the team out this season.” Besides the three left-side hitters, all of the non-starting middle hitters will be competing for time on the right, while two others, Teisa Fotu (6-0, Laie, Oahu) and Caroline Blood (6-0, Long Beach, CA) will also play some on the right. Fotu spent the 2003 season as a redshirt with the Rainbow Wahine after playing three seasons at Hawai‘i Pacific University. “Teisa will see some spot action on the right,” Shoji said. “She could earn some time on the right as a passer and as a defender. She brings a lot in terms of leadership.” Blood came to UH as a softball pitcher in 2003, but has since decided to return to the volleyball court. “Caroline could also possibly play on the outside or in the middle,” Shoji added. “We need to refresh her volleyball skills and get her accustomed to our program, but the level of athleticism that she brings can really help us.” Jessica Keefe (6-0, Ames, IA) will also see time on the outside when she recovers from an off-season knee injury. She was the Gatorade Girls’ Volleyball Player of the Year in the state of Iowa. “Jessica Keefe is coming off of knee surgery in the spring,” Shoji said. “We’ll look at her some on the outside and some in the middle. But she still has a lot of recovery time with her knee injury and probably won’t be in the mix right away.” LIBERO/DEFENSIVE SPECIALIST Ashley Watanabe (5-6, Aiea, Oahu) comes in with the most experience in the back row and will be the top contender for the starting libero job. She has played in 81 games over the past two seasons, averaging 0.77 digs per game. “Watanabe has earned the right to be on the top of the depth chart at the libero position,” Shoji proclaimed. “She has worked very, very hard over the last three years. She knows where she needs to be and can stay in position. Ashley has really made herself a good volleyball player. She’s worked hard in the weight room and has taken thousands of passing and digging reps. She has taken enough reps to Ashley Watanabe be in the right spot and can put the ball in the right spot.” Behind Watanabe will be Raeceen Woolford (5-7, Pearl City, Oahu) and Kelly Ong (5-5, Oakland, CA). Woolford red shirted in 2003 while Ong joined the team in the spring of 2004. “Raeceen made tremendous progress last year,” Shoji said. “She is beginning to show signs of being able to pass and play defense on a consistent level. She just needs more reps and more game experience before she’ll contribute a lot. She’s a very good athlete and can potentially be a good backrow player. “Kelly Ong joined the team in the spring and has worked hard to put herself in a position to contribute.” 2004 WAC Volleyball Coaches’ Pre-season Poll DEPTH CHART Setter Kanoe Kamana‘o Cayley Thurlby Left-side Hitter Susie Boogaard Alicia Arnott Tara Hittle Jessica Keefe Middle Hitter Melody Eckmier Victoria Prince Juliana Sanders Kari Gregory Nickie Thomas Caroline Blood Right-side Hitter Susie Boogaard Teisa Fotu Victoria Prince Jessica Keefe Caroline Blood Libero/DS Ashley Watanabe Raeceen Woolford Teisa Fotu Kelly Ong Three Decades of Excellence In the 2004 pre-season Coaches’ Poll released in July, the Rainbow Wahine were picked to win the conference title for the ninth straight season.

In the first match of the year, UH played Kansas State. Willoughby led the way, putting down 28 kills while hitting .564, while Kahumoku hit .324 with 14 kills. Kamana‘o showed signs of things to come in her first collegiate match, putting up 42 assists, six digs, two kills and two blocks. The Rainbow Wahine held the lead throughout most of the match, winning 30-26, 30-23 and 30-23. The win would set up a classic No. 1 vs. No. 2 match as the second-ranked Rainbow Wahine hosted No. 1 USC. In that opening NACWAA Tournament, Kim Willoughby took care of her first, and most prestigious, record, breaking Teee Williams’ career-kill mark in the first match of the season vs. Kansas State. Willoughby notched 28 kills on the night to better Williams’ mark by one kill in 22 less games than the former 1987 and ’89 Player of the Year. The kill record was the first of many as Willoughby also broke the career records for attempts, kills per game, aces, digs and digs per game, while finishing in the top 10 in two other categories. She also moved to sixth in the NCAA record book for career kills (2,598) and third in career kills per game (5.92). Lily Kahumoku BIG EXPECTATIONS The 2003 University of Hawai‘i Rainbow Wahine volleyball team came into the season with huge expectations as they were coming off a season where they went 34-2 and advanced to the NCAA Championships for the second time in three years. Hawai‘i returned all but one starter, setter Margaret Vakasausau, from the 2002 team, including three All-Americans in Kim Willoughby, Lily Kahumoku and Lauren Duggins. It was even more promising when it was realized that Vakasausau’s replacement would be two-time Hawai‘i High School Player of the Year and junior national team member Kanoe Kamana‘o. All the pieces were in place for the Rainbow Wahine to have a big year. SEVEN SENIORS, ONE GOAL Hawai‘i had been to the national semifinals in two previous seasons and were looking to break through to the elusive fifth national title in 2003. Leading the way would be UH’s biggest senior class since 1983. Along with the three All-American returnees, the class also consisted of two-time first-team all-WAC performer Maja Gustin, two 2002 all-WAC players in libero Melissa Villaroman and Karin Lundqvist, and Nohea Tano, who was destined for her biggest season in 2003. Three Decades of Excellence BIG ‘W’ FOR DOC The Rainbow Wahine opened the Hawaiian Airlines Wahine Volleyball Classic with sweeps of Minnesota and Louisville, setting up another big match against UCLA for the Classic championships. But things were all put in perspective on the morning of Sept. 1, as the team found out that the Rainbow Wahine’s long-time team doctor, Allen Richardson, lost his battle with cancer. Ironically, the UCLA Medical School alumnus’ death would come on the day of the Rainbow Wahine’s match vs. the Bruins. Fighting through the emotional loss, the Rainbow Wahine took five games to fend off a tough UCLA squad, winning 25-30, 3018, 30-24, 29-31 and 15-13. Shoji would later declare that the team was dedicating the season to Doc Richardson. Nohea Tano Hawai‘i held the lead early on in the first game, but the Women of Troy stormed back with big runs to close out the first game, 3022. Game two was again tight early, but with the score tied at 23, USC went on a 7-3 run to take it 30-26. USC looked like they were going to ease their way to a three-game sweep, taking an early lead in the third game, but UH showed their resilience, coming back to hold a game point at 29-28 before bowing 31-29.

UH was not only looking to win its eighth-straight conference title, but also to keep its 65-match WAC winning streak intact. Hawai‘i blitzed through the conference, losing just one game (at Nevada) en route to the conference regular-season title, and push its winning streak to 78 matches. It would be more business as usual for the Rainbow Wahine in the WAC Tournament, as UH won three matches in straight sets to take its fourth-straight WAC Tournament title. Maja Gustin SWEET, SWEET REVENGE Hawai‘i made quick work of their three opponents in the Aston Imua Challenge and their first-round opponent, Utah State, in the Sprint Hawai‘i Invitational, setting up the Invitational championship match vs. Stanford. The Rainbow Wahine were in desperate need of a win against the Cardinal, losing the last seven matches between the teams, dating back to 1991, including UH’s only two losses in 2002. Early on, it looked like the Rainbow Wahine would ease their way to victory, taking game one, 30-22. But Stanford came back to take a close second game, 31-29, tying the match at one game apiece. UH took the third game, 30-27, before falling apart in game four. Stanford would take a 20-9 lead, looking poised to bounce the Rainbow Wahine quickly in the fourth to set up a game five. But Hawai‘i would not give up, mounting a huge 11-2 run to cut it to 22-20, before falling, 30-25. Despite losing the game, UH’s performance in game four gave them momentum that would carry over into the decisive fifth game. The two teams would trade blows with Stanford holding the first match point at 1413. Kamana‘o turned to Nohea Tano to save the Rainbow Wahine, as Tano smacked a kill to tie it up at 14-14. Then Kahumoku stepped it up, putting away the final two kills of the night to give UH the dramatic 16-14 game five victory. 50 ONTO THE NCAAS With a resume that read, “32-1 record, WAC Champions, 10 wins over AVCA Top 25 opponents and 31 consecutive victories,” Hawai‘i earned the NCAA Tournament’s No. 2 seed, hosting the first four rounds at the Stan Sheriff Center. In the first two rounds, the Rainbow Wahine swept through Idaho and Brigham Young with very little adversity. This would set up an NCAA Regional that would bring California, Georgia Tech and Illinois. Illinois didn’t put up much of a fight in the NCAA Regional semifinal until the end, pushing the Rainbow Wahine to a tight, 33-31 win in the third game. The victory set up a match against an up-andcoming Georgia Tech squad that had beaten California in the regional semis. Tech proved to be much more that Hawai‘i wanted in a regional final opponent, winning game one, 34-32. The Yellow Jackets would then hold three game points in the second game, before Willoughby and Kahumoku gave the Rainbow Wahine three straight kills for a 33-31 game two victory. Georgia Tech never let up throughout the match, making it a tough, four-game match that catapulted the Rainbow Wahine to the NCAA Championships in Dallas, Texas. It would be UH’s second straight trip to the NCAA Championships and the third in the past four years for the group.

Hawai‘i again looked hot at the start of the fourth game, going up 4-0 and 9-3. But the Gators fought back to cut it to 12-10 before taking their first lead of the game at 17-16. Florida continued to roll, getting it to 27-22, looking to send UH home. The Rainbow Wahine gave one final push, cutting it down to 28-27 before falling by a final count of 30-28. UH had actually outscored the Gators throughout the match, 114-113, with both Willoughby and Kahumoku pouring in 21 kills in their final collegiate matches. 2003 AVCA ALL-AMERICAN TEAMS First Team Emily Adams USC Cassie Busse Minnesota Bibiana Candelas USC Aury Cruz Florida Kele Eveland Georgia Tech Lauren Goehring Kansas State Jennifer Joines Pacific Ogonna Nnamani Stanford April Ross USC Cara Smith Penn State Katie Wilkins Pepperdine BRING HOME THE HARDWARE Kim Willoughby Hawai‘i Melissa Villaroman DALLAS BOUND With a thrilling victory over Georgia Tech, the Rainbow Wahine had only two wins between them and a national title. But facing Hawai‘i was the team that was ranked right behind them all season Florida. The Gators had not only been ranked at No. 3 throughout the year, but they also came in with an NCAA-record 103-game winning streak and a 35-1 record overall. Florida was led by three-time AllAmerican Aury Cruz and an athletic cast. Hawai‘i came out on fire as a big block by Duggins started a 6-1 run to start the first game. They would keep a steady lead until the Gators came back with a 7-2 run after the break to take the lead at 22-21. But UF would have the final run, winning the first game, 30-28. The second game went back and forth, throughout before Cruz took over in the end, giving the Gators another 30-28 win in game two, sending them into the break with a 2-0 advantage. But UH and its seven seniors weren‘t ready to end its season yet. Hawai‘i was firing on all cylinders early on, taking a 15-6 lead right off. UH kept it going, pushing its lead up to 23-13 before the Gators started to get back into it with a 5-0 run. But it was to be the Three Decades of Excellence Following the tough loss that ended their season, the Rainbow Wahine received some good news at the AVCA All-American banquet, which was held the following day. Three UH players, Willoughby, Kahumoku and Kamana‘o, earned AllAmerica honors, with Kamana‘o winning Freshman of the Year and Willoughby taking home Player of the Year. It was the first time that any school had swept both awards. ALL GOOD THINGS... The saying goes that all good things must come to an end, and the careers of the 2003 senior class was no different. Combined, the seven seniors had 6,989 kills, 5,213 digs, 1,643 blocks, 460 service aces and 636 assists (no setters in the class), while hitting a whopping .330. They combined for 18 all-WAC honors (at least one by each senior), along with three WAC Freshmen of the Year, five WAC Players of the Year, eight all-region honors, seven AllAmerica honors and one National Player of the Year. The four seniors that made up the recruiting class of 2000, Lauren Duggins, Maja Gustin, Melissa Villaroman and Kim Willoughby, ended their four years with a record of 130-12 (.915), the best winning percentage in a four-year span in program history. Lily Kahumoku, who started in 1999 and missed the 2001 season, finished with a 130-8 record (.942) in her career, which ranks as the third-highest winning percentage for an individual player in NCAA history. Nohea Tano accumulated a 101-10 (.910) record in three years while Karin Lundqvist was 70-4 (.946) in two years.

Lundqvist joined the team in 2002 after two years at Montana State and became very valuable as a middle hitter, earning second-team all-WAC honors during her junior season. Tano came over in 2001 and made an immediate impact, starting most of her three years at UH. Her all-around play earned the Kailua native first-team allWAC honors in 2003. Villaroman has the distinction of being the first-ever libero in school history, earning second-team all-WAC honors in 2002 and 2003. Gustin was a three-time first-team allWAC honoree who earned WAC Freshman of the Year and all-region honors in 2000. She also became the 14th member of the 1,000-kill club at UH. Duggins made the biggest improvement in her career, becoming not only a threetime all-WAC honoree, but also a thirdteam All-American in 2002. She finished in the top 10 in the UH record books in block assists (4th, 412), total blocks (6th, 453) and blocks per game (8th, 1.18).

She is the only player in WAC history to be a four-time first-team all-WAC player, while also making all-region all four years and AllAmerica three times. She also ended her career third in kills, second in kill attempts, third in kills per game, sixth in digs and sixth in digs per game in the UH record book. Willoughby will probably go down as the best player in Hawai‘i volleyball history thus far. She not only broke the UH career kills record, she destroyed it, making the gap between her and second-place Teee Williams 725 kills. She also holds career records in five other categories and singleseason marks in six categories. Willoughby was a four-time all-WAC honoree, a three-time WAC Player of the Year, a three-time first-team All-American and UH’s fourth player to earn National Player of the Year honors. But the records and awards don’t even begin to tell the story of Kim Willoughby’s career at the University of Hawai‘i.

We were knocking on the door after finishing second or third in 1975, ‘76, ‘77, and ‘78.” — Head coach Dave Shoji The 1979 Rainbow Wahine volleyball team became the first program at the University of Hawai‘ito win a national championship. After finishing second three times (1974, ’75, ’77) and third twice (1976, ’78), fifth-year head coach Dave Shoji mixed the right elements to produce a championship formula. Seniors Waynette Mitchell, Terry Malterre and Angie Andrade, along with sophomore Diane Sebastian, led the way to Carbondale, Ill., site of the Association for Intercollegiate Athletics for Women Nationals, where they earned all-tournament team honors. The two-and-a-half hour marathon against Utah State ended with Mitchell serving “aloha ball” and Bonnie Gouveia tooling the Aggie block for the championship point. It was the first time in AIAW history a team captured the national championship after dropping the first two games, 8-15, 7-15, 15-9, 16-14, 15-12. 1979 Results AIAW CHAMPIONSHIP ROUNDS 9/18 Pittsburgh W 15-5, 15-5, 15-8 9/19 Pittsburgh W 15-7, 15-4, 15-8 9/26 San Diego State W 9-15, 15-4, 15-12, 15-1 9/27 San Diego State W 16-14, 15-11, 15-12 10/3 UC Riverside W 15-2, 15-1, 15-4 10/4 UC Riverside W 15-2, 15-4, 15-5 at Nissin Food Collegiate Classic (Los Angeles, CA, Oct. 12-13) 10/12 UCLA W 15-12, 10-15, 15-7, 15-5 10/13 Utah State W 15-6, 12-15, 15-13, 15-13 10/17 San Jose State W 15-6, 15-9, 15-6 10/18 San Jose State W 15-12, 15-9, 11-15, 15-7 10/23 BYU-Hawai‘i W 15-4, 15-0, 12-15, 15-9 10/27 at San Jose State W 8-15, 15-6, 15-9, 16-14 10/28 at Pacific L 10-15, 11-15, 15-8, 15-12, 14-16 10/30 at Utah State L 9-15, 15-6, 15-7, 6-15, 14-16 10/31 at Utah State L 14-16, 11-15, 7-15 at UCLA/NIVT (Los Angeles, CA, Nov. 2-3) 11/2 Stanford W 15-4, 17-15 11/2 USC W 15-7, 15-2 11/3 UC Santa Barbara W 15-3, 15-12 11/3 Arizona State W 17-15, 15-5 11/3 Cal State Northridge W 15-4, 15-11 11/3 UC Irvine W 15-2, 15-13 11/3 Pepperdine W 4-15, 15-7, 15-9 11/3 USC W 15-4, 15-11 11/7 Utah State W 13-15, 6-15, 15-7, 15-10, 15-7 11/8 Utah State W 7-15, 15-6, 16-14, 15-13 11/14 Hawai‘i-Hilo W 15-6, 15-13, 15-12 11/15 Hawai‘i-Hilo W 15-5, 15-10, 15-10 at AIAW Western Regionals (San Diego, CA, Nov. 23-24) 11/23 Long Beach State W 15-2, 15-11, 15-9 11/23 Pepperdine W 16-14, 15-9, 7-15, 15-5 11/24 UCLA L 12-15, 15-7, 8-15, 10-15 11/24 Pacific W 15-7, 15-8 11/24 UCLA L 8-15, 13-15, 16-14, 9-15 11/28 Texas-Arlington W 15-11, 15-5, 17-15 11/29 Texas-Arlington W 15-7, 15-8, 15-5 at AIAW Nationals (Carbondale, IL, Dec. 6-8) 12/6 SW Missouri State W 15-2, 15-8 12/6 New Mexico State W 16-14, 15-9 12/6 San Diego State W 15-7, 16-14 12/7 Washington W 15-0, 15-6 12/7 Texas-Arlington W 15-12, 15-13, 13-15, 15-2 12/8 Pacific W 15-5, 15-4, 5-15, 15-6 National Final 12/8 Utah State W 8-15, 7-15, 15-9, 16-14, 15-12 86 Quarterfinals HAWAI‘I def.

Head coach Dave Shoji won his second national title in four years and had the best record among the nation’s top coaches at 229-41-1.

It was the second time the Wahine had come back from a two-game deficit to win the trophy.

After hosting the NCAA first round and Northwest Regional for the first-time ever in Klum Gym, the Rainbow Wahine advanced to the final four in Indianapolis, Ind. It took almost two hours for head coach Dave Shoji to win his fourth national championship in nine years. The win was Hawai‘i’s first title and first final four appearance since 1983. The Wahine captured the crown with a four-set victory over Stanford, 15-10, 1510, 9-15, 15-1. Ending their careers were seniors Reydan Ahuna, Suzanne Eagye, Mahina Eleneki and Diana Jessie, all of whom were instrumental in Hawai‘i’s success during the season. Teee Williams capped off a spectacular rookie campaign by being named national player of the year.

Beginning on Oct. 22, 1994, all home matches were moved to the Stan Sheriff Center (SSC). On occasion, UH played home matches at Neal S. Blaisdell Center (NBC) and in 1979, played three matches at McKinley High School (MHS). In the 1974 and ’75 seasons, the Rainbow Wahine did not play any intercollegiate home matches. Klum Gym served as the home court for the Rainbow Wahine from 1976 to the first half of the 1994 season. Hawai‘i enjoyed a 224-30 record in Klum. Three Decades of Excellence The Stan Sheriff Center has housed the Rainbow Wahine since halfway through the 1994 season, as they hold a .933 winning percentage at the arena overall. 93 04 wvb media guide.qxp 8/18/2004 10:15 AM Page 94 YEAR-BY-YEAR RESULTS YEAR-BY-YEAR RESULTS Year 1974 1975 1976 1977 1978 1979 1980 1981 1982 1983 1984 1985 1986 1987 1988 1989 1990 1991 1992 1993 1994 1995 1996 1997 1998 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 Totals W 9 16 14 22 28 36 34 37 33 34 33 28 31 37 33 29 28 26 15 19 25 31 35 25 32 29 31 29 34 36 849 Overall L 1 2 5 5 10 5 10 2 1 2 11 13 7 2 3 3 6 5 12 11 5 1 3 8 3 2 2 6 2 2 150 T 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 Pct. .900 .889 .737 .815 .731 .878 .773 .949 .971 .944 .750 .683 .816 .949 .917 .906 .824 .839 .556 .633 .833 .969 .921 .758 .914 .935 .939 .829 .944 .947 .850 Conference W L 10 6 15 3 17 1 18 0 17 1 16 2 15 3 11 7 13 5 15 3 18 0 16 0 14 0 13 1 14 0 16 0 13 0 13 0 13 0 277 32 Pct. .625 .833 .944 1.000 .944 .889 .833 .611 .722 .833 1.000 1.000 1.000 .929 1.000 1.000 1.000 1.000 1.000 .896 Conference PCAA PCAA PCAA Big West Big West Big West Big West Big West Big West Big West Big West WAC WAC WAC WAC WAC WAC WAC WAC Finish 3rd 2nd 1st 1st 1st 1st T-2nd 4th 3rd 2nd 1st 1st-Pacific 1st-Pacific T-1st-Pacific 1st 1st 1st 1st 1st 13 Titles Coach Alan Kang Dave Shoji Dave Shoji Dave Shoji Dave Shoji Dave Shoji Dave Shoji Dave Shoji Dave Shoji Dave Shoji Dave Shoji Dave Shoji Dave Shoji Dave Shoji Dave Shoji Dave Shoji Dave Shoji Dave Shoji Dave Shoji Dave Shoji Dave Shoji Dave Shoji Dave Shoji Dave Shoji Dave Shoji Dave Shoji Dave Shoji Dave Shoji Dave Shoji Dave Shoji 2 Coaches National Finish AIAW Runners-up AIAW Runners-up AIAW 3rd Place AIAW Runners-up AIAW 3rd Place AIAW Champions AIAW 3rd Place NCAA Regional Finals NCAA Champions NCAA Champions NCAA First Round NCAA Regional Semi-finals NCAA Regional Finals NCAA Champions NCAA Runners-up NCAA Regional Finals NCAA Regional Semi-finals NCAA Regional Finals No Post-season NCAA Regional Finals NCAA Regional Semi-finals NCAA Regional Finals NCAA Runners-up NCAA First Round NCAA Regional Finals NCAA Regional Semi-finals NCAA Championship Semis NCAA Regional Semi-finals NCAA Championship Semis NCAA Championship Semis 4 National Championships THE RAINBOW WAHINE TRADITION In the 23 years since the advent of the NCAA Women’s Volleyball Tournament, Hawai‘i ranks among the top programs in many categories in the NCAA Tournament.

In particular, members have played key roles in funding appropriations for the first-class athletics facilities on the Manoa campus. In the past, the athletics department has received funding for the UH Athletics Complex ($12 million); Duke Kahanamoku Aquatic Complex ($5.6 million); Les Murakami Baseball Stadium ($12 million); Stan Sheriff Center Phases I and II ($33.6 million); renovations to the football locker room, the football and women’s soccer practice field ($3.1 million); Cooke Field track replacement ($1.4 million); and athletics complex office, training room, and softball batting cage renovations ($1.6 million). Most recently, construction of the new tennis court facilities have begun, following a $3.26 million appropriation from the Hawai‘i State Legislature. The new tennis facilities are slated to be finished in September of 2004; and in April of 2005, the University will host the Western Athletic Conference Tennis Championships.

Growing up, he played basketball and baseball, and in later life has pursued fast-pitch softball, volleyball, tennis and golf. At the University of Kansas, McClain bowled on the university’s club team which competed in the then-Big Eight, and he briefly considered a professional bowling career. As a father whose daughters have participated in NCAA sports, McClain is no stranger to the spirit and dedication required of the student-athlete, and he looks forward to cheering on Manoa’s student-athletes this season. McClain was named acting president by the Board of Regents on June 15, 2004. He is also the vice president for academic affairs for the university system. Having been at the university for more than 13 years, McClain is very familiar with the university’s athletics tradition and looks forward to any opportunity he and his family have to enjoy a game. He first joined the Manoa campus in 1991 as the College of Business’ Henry A. Walker, Jr. distinguished professor of business enterprise and professor of financial economics and institutions. He became dean of the College of Business and the First Hawaiian Bank Distinguished Professor of Leadership and Management in 2000, and continued to hold these positions when he was named the UH system’s interim vice president for research in 2003. McClain has proven his business expertise to be advantageous for the Athletics department, having previously served as the chairman of the committee on fiscal integrity for the Athletics department’s NCAA certification, as well as chairman of the selection committee that helped choose Herman Frazier as athletics director. McClain’s ability to reach out and connect with students, alumni and the greater 110 community can be seen with the many roles he has taken on within the local arena. A director of ML Resources and First Insurance, he chairs the board of Hawai‘i Literacy and serves on a number of other nonprofit boards in Hawai‘i. He is a member of the National Business and Economic Issues Council and a past member of the Business Accreditation Committee for AACSB International, the professional accrediting organization for business schools worldwide. After receiving a B.A. in economics and mathematics from the University of Kansas, McClain joined the U.S. Army, completing his service as a first lieutenant in Vietnam. He earned a Ph.D. in economics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and taught at MIT’s Sloan School of Management and at Universidad Gabriela Mistral in Santiago, Chile. He has been a visiting scholar at Keio and Meiji universities, and is on the board of advisors for Ritsumeikan Asia Pacific University in Japan. He was a tenured faculty member and department chair at Boston University and founding director of the Management Development Program - Japan. He also served as senior staff economist on the Council of Economic Advisors to President Jimmy Carter and head of global economic information services for Data Resources, Inc. McClain has headed the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation Business Management Network and is a former director of the National Association for Business Economics and of Babson-United, a privately held financial services firm. He is the author of Apocalypse on Wall Street, published by Dow-Jones/Irwin; numerous scholarly articles; and several hundred columns on economic issues. He is married to Wendie Kastler McClain, an early childhood educator, literacy advocate, former chair of the Hawai‘i Literacy board, and avid golfer and sailor. The McClains have three daughters, each of whom they’ve coached in youth soccer, and have two granddaughters.

A delegation of officials from Englert’s previous campus at Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand, performed a ceremony through which they officially “handed over” the Chancellor to his new home and his new responsibilities. A delegation of Hawaiian students likewise welcomed him to Manoa. These were defining moments for Englert and for UH Manoa. Within days, the new Chancellor -declaring that he wanted first-hand experience at getting to know the campus and how students encounter it -- had moved into the Gateway House dormitory. His view from the 10th floor was of the sprawling athletics complex on lower campus, and soon afterward, he gained a cadre of “instant neighbors” when the UH Warrior football team moved in as fall practice sessions began. “It was wonderful,” the Chancellor declared. “The energy and enthusiasm that the team brought to their daily drills was infectious, and the whole building came alive. I enjoyed talking with these young men about their lives, about football, about academics. It’s very obvious that our student-athletes are special people, willing to take on the extra responsibilities of the discipline that practice and competition require and still making it to class every day. We are committed to giving them all of the support we can.” Manoa support includes a wellappointed and well-used academic center within the athletics complex and counseling that benefits the steady numbers of scholarathletes who maintain a sufficiently high grade-point-average to earn honors as UH scholar-athletes. Almost a third of the participants on the department’s 21 teams qualified for that designation during the last academic year. Many of them also earned national recognition as members of Academic All-America, Academic AllWestern Athletic Conference (WAC) and Academic All-Mountain Pacific Sports Three Decades of Excellence Federation (MPSF) teams at year’s end. Chancellor Englert has been in and around athletics most of his life -- as a participant, a coach, and, of course, an avid fan. At one point in his career, he returned to his native Germany and introduced triathlon competition to the country. He is now the University of Hawai‘i’s official representative to the Western Athletic Conference Board of Directors, which is made up of the heads of campuses for all WAC’s member institutions. Englert’s professional career as an educator and administrator spans more than half the globe. His academic degrees are in nuclear chemistry from the University of Cologne. He was a faculty member and administrator at San Jose State University in California for 12 years, and at Victoria University from 1995 until his arrival at Manoa, serving there most immediately as pro vice chancellor and dean of Science, Architecture and Design. At the time he was being recruited to head the Manoa campus, Englert characterized himself as a consensus-builder and his leadership style as collaborative and consultative. He points to his experience in nurturing diversity and access, noting his establishment of Victoria University’s Whanau support group for Maori and Pacific Nation students. Englert also cites his strength in building alliances, both within institutions and with outside universities and countries. Victoria University signed an international agreement with the University of Hawai‘i in 2001, and Englert comments that these kinds of cooperative alliances strengthen the influence of participating Pacific-Asia institutions in the global community. The Chancellor has established a challenging agenda for himself as he manages change at Manoa in the face of continuing budgetary restraints. He is guided by the Manoa Strategic Plan, development of which was already well underway when he arrived two years ago. “The plan lays out our goals of always to strive for leadership, excellence and innovation, and this includes athletics since it is an integral part of our campus life,” Englert says. “We seek to build a sense of pride in Manoa by supporting intercollegiate athletics at the highest level, to make sure that there are expanded opportunities for our students to participate in a broad range of athletic programs, and to meet our obligations in gender equity for intramural and intercollegiate sports programs.” Englert also noted, “Athletics Director Herman Frazier and I started work at Manoa on the very same day. He was there with me at the welcome ceremony that signaled the beginning of new leadership for Manoa. I think we’ve made good progress toward enhancing opportunities for our student-athletes, and that our loyal fans can look forward to exciting years ahead.” Englert, an active supporter of UH athletics, thanks members of the Rainbow Wahine Soccer Hui on the commemoration of the soccer program’s 10th anniversary last season. 111 04 wvb media guide.qxp 8/18/2004 10:22 AM Page 112 ABOUT THE UNIVERSITY The University of Hawai‘i system is composed of three university campuses, seven community colleges and a host of other educational centers. As a research university of international standing, the University of Hawai‘i at Manoa (UHM) is the flagship campus of the University system. UHM’s mission and that of the University system is to provide quality college and university education and training in addition to creating knowledge through research and scholarship. The University also seeks to contribute to the cultural heritage of the state of Hawai‘i and fulfill the needs of the state through a comprehensive array of undergraduate, graduate and professional degree programs. UHM was founded in 1907 and is the oldest campus in the University system. It began as a land-grant college of agriculture and mechanic arts. In 1920, the school added the College of Arts and Sciences and became the University of Hawai‘i. Later, in order to distinguish UH from other schools in the growing University system, the school changed its name to the University of Hawai‘i at Manoa. Today, there are more than 18,000 students enrolled in various degree-granting programs at UHM. The University has also been recognized as the premier institution to study in fields such as tropical agriculture, tropical medicine, oceanography, astronomy, volcanology, comparative religion, Asian and Pacific Island studies, and many more wide-ranging fields. In addition, the UHM offers instruction in more languages than any U.S. institution outside the United States’ State Department. The variety of undergraduate degree programs offered at the University continues to expand and even allows for students to create their own specialized program. This past year, UHM added yet another degree program into their curriculum, when the Hawai‘i State Legislature approved funding for a film school, the Academy of Creative Media, the first of its kind in the state. UH Manoa is accredited by the Accrediting Commission for Senior Colleges and Universities of the Western Association of Schools and Colleges. Professional programs are individually accredited by appropriate agencies. Here are a few reasons to consider the University of Hawai‘i at Manoa: -UHM has been ranked in the 2004 top-five Best Values for Public Colleges and Universities according to Consumers Digest Magazine. -UHM has been ranked 44th in The Princeton Review’s 2004 list of the country’s “Most Connected Campuses.” -UHM has also been ranked 37th by an Intel-sponsored list of the Most Unwired College Campuses, which rates a college’s wireless technology access. -UHM’s graduate and professional programs have been ranked in U.S. News and World Report’s annual report as among the nation’s best. Receiving recognition were the College of Education, College of Business Administration, the William S. Richardson School of Law, and the School of Social Work. -UHM is the closest comprehensive U.S. university to the Asia-Pacific region. -Honolulu’s mild climate and beautiful scenery, yet bustling urban environment, makes it the ideal place to study, work, and live. 112 Three Decades of Excellence 04 wvb media guide.qxp 8/18/2004 10:22 AM Page 113 ABOUT THE UNIVERSITY UH continues to garner national recognition for excellence and diversity in education and in 2004, the UH College of Business Administration was once again ranked among the nation’s top 20 graduate schools for international business by U.S. News & World Report. The Richardson School of Law and John Burns School of Medicine boasts the most diverse faculty and student population in the country, mirroring that of Hawai‘i’s population and allowing for a more enriched learning environment for all students. UHM is located in the middle of the Pacific between the mainland U.S. and Asia, and the University prides itself on the ethnic diversity among both the student body and educational programs. UHM is home to cutting-edge technology and research facilities, such as the University’s Mauna Kea facilities which house the Gemini research observatory and two of the largest telescopes in the world. The lush Manoa Valley is also the backdrop for major scientific discoveries, including a headline-making discovery in genetics and cloning with the now-famous “green mice,” mice that glow green because of proteins from a jellyfish gene. In addition, UHM was one of just 151 colleges and universities nationwide recognized as an extensive doctoral/research university by the Carnegie Foundation for its wide-ranging doctoral programs and research. The Accrediting Commission of Senior Colleges and Universities of the Western Association of Schools and Colleges also accredit UHM. An ideal place for undergraduates and graduates alike, UHM offers students a wide course selection, premier research facilities and a prime location for study and leisure. Additionally, the moderate yearround temperature and close proximity to many outdoor activities offer students an inviting environment to study and live in.

Those traits are also used in the same sentence when talking about Herman Ronald Frazier. The University of Hawai‘i’s 17th athletics director enters his third year at the helm of the state’s most visible athletics program. “Herman and I took up our respective jobs at Manoa on the same day nearly two years ago. Since that time, we have enjoyed a terrific relationship--sharing the challenges that athletics on the lower campus and academics on the upper campus have both encountered,” Peter Englert, chancellor of UH Manoa, said. “I think we have been supportive of each other--as these areas of a major university campus should be--and I have appreciated Herman’s leadership in bringing some rationality to the athletics budget, to expansion of team sports opportunities for our student-athletes and for nurturing a highly positive and successful academic support system. I see only good things ahead for Manoa athletics under Herman’s guidance.” His ability to lead now stems beyond the Pacific Rim into all parts of the world as evident by his latest authoritative role-Chef de Mission of Team USA for the XXVIII Olympiad. He was bestowed this prestigious honor and task for the 2004 Summer Olympic Games in Athens, Greece. He oversaw almost every aspect--from scheduling to security--around the 800-plus athletes. He was in Athens the entire month of August before returning to Oahu in time to kickoff the home football schedule against Florida Atlantic. His more than a quarter of a century as an administrator, coupled together with the significant leadership roles within NCAA athletics organizations and the U.S. Olympic community, speak volumes as to the depth and breadth of his experience in every facet of athletics administration. Frazier, who completed his second term as a USOC vice president this summer, has been extremely active in the USOC for more than 20 years. He was Chef de Mission for the U.S. team at the 1999 Pan-American Games in Winnipeg, Canada, and special assistant to the USOC president at the 2000 Olympics in Sydney, Australia. Frazier was a member of the Atlanta Committee for the Olympic Games (ACOG) Board of Directors and served as Assistant Chef de Mission for the U.S. team at the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta and the 1991 Pan-American Games in Cuba. A former member of the Athletes’ Advisory Council (1980-88), he has served on the executive committee and board of directors of USA Track and Field as one of its vice presidents (1992-96). Since taking over the reins of the UH Athletics Department on Aug. 1, 2002, he has hit the ground running working towards establishing a strong foundation at Manoa. “When I first came on board here, my first and foremost objective was to work on the organizational structure of the athletics department,” Frazier said. “Now that the ground work has been laid, the next step is to get us on solid financial footing.” The athletics department budget was $16 million when Frazier took over. Going into the 2004-05 year, the budget has increased to $18 million. One of the main goals on Frazier’s agenda is attaining financial stability. The key lies in his five-year game plan beginning with the 2004-05 fiscal year. “I believe the biggest step we’ve taken as a department in the past year is bringing the marketing office back in-house,” Frazier said. “That, coupled with our newly established external operations associate athletics director John McNamara’s leadership and our new partnership with Koa Anuenue, have us heading in the right direction.” UH ATHLETICS DEPARTMENT MISSION STATEMENT The mission of the University of Hawai‘i Athletics Department is to operate dynamic sports programs encouraging student-athletes in their pursuit of excellence in the realms of academic achievement and athletic competition at the highest levels. The Athletics Department will provide equal opportunities to male and female students of all ethnic and cultural backgrounds, and will develop sportsmanship and ethical conduct. With aloha, we dedicate ourselves to earning the trust and loyalty of our fans and community through exemplary sports programs. Three Decades of Excellence 04 wvb media guide.qxp 8/24/2004 4:45 PM Page 115 ATHLETICS DIRECTOR HERMAN FRAZIER Frazier has also taken rudimentary steps in making the UHAD a place where programs are competing for championships on a yearly basis. He envisions UH raising its graduation rate to more than 80 percent, winning three to four Western Athletic Conference titles per year, and having at least two teams ranked in the Top 25 nationally on a yearly basis. He believes that all starts at the top with head coaches. “We’re maintaining and expanding UH into a destination for successful head coaches,” Frazier said. Under his tenure, he has hired head coaches for men’s tennis, women’s basketball, women’s golf, and upgraded the women’s head tennis coach to full-time. Frazier came to Hawai‘i via the University of Alabama-Birmingham (UAB), where he was the athletics director for two years since 2000. Before his term at UAB, Frazier spent 23 years in the athletics department at ASU. During his tenure in Tempe, Ariz., he served as a graduate assistant on the track program, assistant director of events and facilities, assistant and associate directors of operations, associate director of athletics, and senior associate athletics director for business and operations. He managed a $24 million budget and oversaw a $30 million facilities improvement project for soccer, tennis, softball, basketball, and the athletics offices. Administratively, Frazier has served on many boards, including the Fiesta Bowl Board of Directors as its vice president in 1996 and chairman in 1998-99. As chairman, he was a part of the first unified championship of college football and conducted the championship series negotiations that handed out the largest-ever payouts of $26 million. In all, he is a member of six NCAA and international governing bodies. That distinguished managerial background is what is shaping UH today. Frazier believes that capital improvements are critical to molding UH for the future and it has been a big part of his approach the past two years. “Bricks and mortar are vital for the infrastructure of the department,” Frazier said. “Keeping the aesthetic appearance is essential for not only recruiting the elite student-athletes, but also imperative in luring the top coaches in the country.” In the past two years, the athletics complex is taking on a new look. The Three Decades of Excellence newly refurbished Cooke Field track, which was underway when Frazier was appointed A.D., is the future site of the 2006 WAC Outdoor Track & Field Championships. Groundbreaking for a new tennis complex has begun, which is slated to host the 2005 WAC Championships, and various other cosmetic makeovers in and around the athletics complex have Frazier’s thumb print. Before Frazier began building an impressive resume as an administrator, he was a multi-sport athlete at Germantown High in Philadelphia. From there, Frazier launched his collegiate athletics career at Division III Denison University, and later at Arizona State University, where he was an eight-time AllAmerican and team captain of the 1977 national championship track team. As a collegian, he has held numerous records, including the world mark in the indoor 500-m and was a member of the record-breaking 4x200-m relay squad. He is a former American record-holder in the indoor 400-m and was the 1977 NCAA 400-m champion. Frazier earned his bachelor’s degree from ASU in 1977, majoring in political science. The Olympic Arena is where he made a name for himself running the leadoff leg of the gold medal-winning 4x400-m relay team, while also garnering a bronze medal in the 400-m dash at the 1976 XXI Olympiad in Montreal. He was also a gold medalist at both the 1975 and 1979 Pan-American Games in the 4x400-m relays. In 1980, he was a member of the U.S. Olympic team that boycotted the XXII Olympiad in Moscow. In the past five years, Frazier has been recognized both nationally and internationally. In 2001, he received the NCAA Silver Anniversary Award, which recognizes former student-athletes who have distinguished themselves after completing their collegiate athletic careers 25 years ago. In 2003, Sports Illustrated tabbed him one of the 101 most influential minorities in sports. He ranked 59th on the list between executive Ray Anderson (58) of the Atlanta Falcons and head coach Herman Edwards (60) of the New York Jets. In spring 2004, the former track standout was welcomed back to the Penn Relays where he was once reigned as the top male athlete at the prestigious meet. This time, he served as the meet’s honorary carnival referee. The first two years at UH for Frazier have also been very gratifying beyond the everyday rigors of the office, as he has become increasingly more assimilated into the people and culture of Hawai‘i. “One of the most rewarding aspects of my job is my involvement with many of the outside organizations in Hawai‘i such as the March of Dimes, Special Olympics, Lanakila, and the Boy Scouts,” Frazier said. “I believe that one cannot put a price tag on this part of the job.” Frazier is currently engaged to Caroline Beal.

Sadler enters his second year at the University of Hawai‘i, where he serves as the associate athletics director. Sadler is primarily responsible for overseeing the internal, day-to-day operations of the department, including ticketing and facilities management and the supervision of the men’s volleyball, baseball, softball and cross-country programs. The 43-year-old made his mark on the UH Athletics Department early on, working to upgrade the ticket operation and implement the eTicketHawaii.com website. “The whole intent of the ticket operation was to service our patrons,” Sadler said. “I believe we now have the ability to do so at a higher level than ever before.” He also renegotiated the concessions contracts to generate more revenue while looking to make big improvements in the department in years to come. “We’re looking to improve the internal organizational structure while continually making improvements to our facilities,” Sadler added. “The hope is that the improvements will not only serve the fans, but mainly the student-athletes at a higher level. We’re hoping to have the best facilities in the conference and some of the best in the country in an effort to attract the top student-athletes and allow them to reach their potential on the playing fields as well as in the classroom.” Sadler, a native of Kalamazoo, Mich., has over 20 years of experience in athletics administration. He began his career in 1983 as an administrative assistant to the director of athletics facilities and moved up to event coordinator in 1985, where he remained for three years. In 1988, he was promoted to stadium manager and then to the Office of Stadium Management, where he served as director for eight years. During that span, Sadler served a dual role as a senior member of the management teams for the ASU Athletics Department and the Department of Institutional Advancement. He moved into the role of assistant athletics director in the Office of Stadium Management in 1997 and became assistant athletics director for constituent relations in 2002. Although Sadler’s experience is concentrated on ASU, his resume and accomplishments are diverse within all aspects of intercollegiate athletics and also features relationships with professional organizations. Sadler has extensive experience in the areas of fund-raising and finance, contract administration, facility improvement, program development, novelty sales, and operations. As assistant athletics director at ASU, Sadler helped implement a $41 million capital campaign for the Sun Devils, conceptualized strategies for donor cultivation, and developed and implemented a deficit reduction plan which included the elimination of a $1 million budget shortfall over four years. Sadler was also actively involved in negotiating and administering multimilliondollar contracts for ASU since 1987 that include the use of Sun Devil Stadium by the National Football League’s Arizona Cardinals and the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl, which served as host for this year’s national championship game. Sadler’s experience in facility improvement is extensive. Most notably, he chaired a committee for a $200 million upgrade of Sun Devil Stadium, and implemented major facility improvements that include the ASU Athletics Complex ($19.1 million), Sun Devil Stadium ($7.1 million), Wells Fargo Arena ($9.3 million), Women’s Soccer Stadium ($2 million), Women’s Softball Stadium ($2 million), Sun Angel Track Stadium ($725,000), and Whiteman Tennis Center ($750,000). Accomplishments in program development included redefining management of the University Club and serving as chairperson of the board of directors. In addition, Sadler also developed an in-house strategy for the novelty sales program for ASU and the Arizona Cardinals. Sadler is also seasoned in the area of intercollegiate operations, having managed and staged more than 250 events each year for ASU and serving as tournament director for several NCAA and Pacific-10 Conference championship events. He has also served as a key member of the Host Committee in Arizona for Super Bowl XXX and guided the development of a comprehensive operating manual for several sporting events. Sadler is a 1983 graduate of Aquinas College in Grand Rapids, Mich., where he earned a bachelor’s degree in industrial/organizational psychology. He also earned a master’s degree in public administration from Arizona State in 1994. Sadler lives in Hawaii Kai with his wife, Shellie, and two daughters – Chelsea, 21, and Shea, 10.

He oversees marketing, promotions, corporate partnerships, media relations, licensing, and merchandising, and works on television-related issues. In his role, McNamara ensures that all areas are communicating and working in conjunction with each other, so that consistent branding strategies and external initiatives are being administered. “UH has a solid tradition and an incredibly promising future,” McNamara said. “In order to maximize exposure and revenue opportunities, we’ve built synergy between our various departments so that information is shared and goals are clearly defined. “It’s important that we work as a team and strive for the same ends through similar means. Therefore, we’ve created an organized structure and clear guidelines that put both internal and external constituencies on the same page. We have some very talented and dedicated individuals on our staff and their coordinated efforts are crucial to our success.” In his first few months on the job, McNamara made an immediate impact. He focused the department’s branding efforts and integrated them into all external programs. Marketing plans were developed for each men’s and women’s sport and the Corporate Partnership Program was given additional emphasis, resulting in increased revenue. He orchestrated the creation of a new website (HawaiiAthletics.com) and weekly e-newsletters to UH fans. McNamara also helped develop clearly defined media policies and new licensing and merchandising strategies, and was instrumental in the formation of the “Manoa Maniacs” (student spirit group), the “UH Kids’ Club,” and the “Family Zone,” a non-alcohol section at UH football games. He works closely with athletics director Herman Frazier on several other projects, including the department’s television strategies, the relationship with the NFL and the Pro Bowl, and community outreach programs. Three Decades of Excellence Prior to coming to Hawai‘i, McNamara, 42, was the associate commissioner for external affairs at Conference USA (1999-2004), associate commissioner of the Western Athletic Conference (1995-99), assistant commissioner of the Mid-American Conference (1991-95), and sports information director at the University of Toledo (1988-91). McNamara began his collegiate athletic career in 1985, when he was hired as assistant sports information director at the University of Toledo. He was promoted to sports information director in 1988 and, at 25 years old, became the youngest SID at a Division I-A school. In 1991, he was named assistant commissioner of the Mid-American Conference, where he coordinated the conference’s external affairs, including television, marketing, corporate development, advertising, media relations, licensing, and merchandising. In 1995, he joined the Western Athletic Conference as associate commissioner, overseeing marketing, corporate development, advertising, promotions, licensing and merchandising. He also served as director of the WAC’s football championship game for three years. McNamara spent four years at Conference USA as the associate commissioner for external affairs, supervising television, marketing, media relations, corporate development, advertising, promotions, merchandising, and licensing. He served as the conference’s liaison to ESPN, ESPN Regional, and Fox Sports Net, as well as executive director of the C-USA Television Network and director of the men’s basketball tournament. He created and administered Corporate Partnership Programs at the MAC, WAC, and C-USA. McNamara graduated from the University of Toledo in 1985 with a bachelor of arts degree in communications, specializing in TV broadcasting and minoring in political science. The native of Toledo, Ohio, is single and graduated from St. Francis de Sales High School. He has four brothers and five sisters. McNamara enjoys golf, tennis, swimming and traveling.

Under the administration’s new organizational scheme, Moniz-Kaho‘ohanohano continues to monitor gender equity and NCAA compliance within the department, while taking on a new role in the supervision of student services, compliance and a dozen various sports programs. “I foresee a great future for the University of Hawai‘i athletics department as we strive to have the best program in the WAC,” Moniz-Kaho‘ohanohano said. “I’d like to help (athletics director) Herman Frazier in the department’s goal to reach financial stability while looking to make improvements in the areas of student services, creating more academic services for the student-athletes and enhancing life skills, and compliance.” As senior woman administrator, one of her major priorities continues to be the department’s compliance with the Patsy Mink Act (Title IX). MonizKaho‘ohanohano was instrumental in UH’s first gender equity plan, “If You Let Us Play…” which has recently been revised to the “Just Do It” plan in 2002. The plan more than doubled the opportunities for female athletes at UH, from less than 100 to nearly 200, added four sports and tripled the budget, all in a decade’s time. Now the department is embarking on a new five-year plan (2002-07) which looks to expand support for UH’s dozen women’s programs, while also exploring the possibility of adding one more women’s varsity sport. The lower campus’ tennis facility will also undergo a major facelift with the anticipation of hosting the conference championships next year. Moniz-Kaho‘ohanohano oversees women’s volleyball, soccer, water polo, cheerleading, men’s golf, men’s and women’s tennis, women’s and coed sailing, and men’s and women’s swimming and diving. In her 15 years in the department, Moniz-Kaho‘ohanohano has been a part of many big accomplishments for the women’s programs. She’s been to four women’s volleyball NCAA Championships (1996, 2000, ’02 and ’03), seen the inception of four new women’s sports (soccer, sailing, water polo and track and field) while playing host to two NCAA Women’s Volleyball Championships (1989 and ’99). “These 15 years have gone by awfully fast,” said Moniz-Kaho‘ohanohano. “When you look back, we definitely have gotten a lot accomplished with so many memorable moments. “I can remember going with the Wahine basketball team to the NCAA Tournament in 1990 when we beat Montana in front of 7,000 people to get to the second round for the first time. I remember when soccer opened the Waipio Peninsula Soccer Stadium and we had a couple thousand people there to help Wahine soccer christen their new home. “And volleyball. Volleyball has always been at such a high level. Dave (Shoji) was my coach my senior year and now he’s celebrating his 30th year of coaching. It’s always brought such pride and joy to see that program stay at such a high level, constantly being regarded as one of the top programs in the country.” Moniz-Kaho‘ohanohano was a scholarathlete while pursuing her bachelor’s degree in American Studies as a member of the volleyball team. She was also the recipient of the prestigious Jack Bonham Award, which honors outstanding senior athletes. After graduation, Moniz-Kaho‘ohanohano continued her education at UH’s Richardson School of Law, where she earned her Juris Doctor degree in 1979. In 1980, she moved to Maui and served as a deputy prosecuting attorney. Four years after that, she accepted a position as the deputy director for Parks and Recreation on Maui, became the director in 1986, just prior to joining UH. Moniz-Kaho‘ohanohano has served on a number of NCAA committees, most recently the Division I Volleyball and Division I Swimming and Diving committees. She is currently on the NCAA Olympic Sports Liaison Committee and has been added to the NCAA Championships/Competition Cabinet. Moniz-Kaho‘ohanohano is married with three daughters, ages 16, 15, and 10. She supports their athletic endeavors in both volleyball and basketball. She and her family are also active members of their church.

The center, named after the man who lobbied for its construction-– former UH athletics director Stan Sheriff, has served as the home of the University of Hawai‘imen’s and women’s basketball and volleyball teams and has played host to a number of memories in the last decade. Many highlights have come within just the last few years. The men’s basketball team won 24-straight home games between 2001 120 and 2003, the longest streak for the program in the SSC and just two short of the school record. Meanwhile, the women’s basketball team hosted the program’s first-ever postseason game in the arena in 2001. The SSC is also home of the most dominating volleyball teams in the land. The men’s and women’s volleyball teams have smashed nearly every attendance record since playing at the SSC en route to four NCAA Championship appearances (women, 1996, 2000, ’02 and ’03; and men, 1995 and 1996). UH’s impressive fan support have lured both the 1997 men’s and the 1999 women’s NCAA volleyball championships before the arena housed the 2004 Men’s Volleyball NCAA Championships this past spring. The SSC can hold 10,300 fans, which makes it one of the largest facilities in the Western Athletic Conference. The SSC also plays host to many nonUH events. High school state championships and musical concerts are regularly held at the UH arena. The Los Angeles Lakers have conducted several preseason camps at the SSC. National television audiences tuned-in to see NBA and WNBA stars suit up for Team USA in a stop before the 2000 Summer Olympics. The SSC even drew the attention of international audiences as host of the 1998 Miss Universe Pageant. This past spring, USA gymnastics hosted the Pacific Alliance Championships at the Stan Sheriff Center. Teams from Australia, Canada, China, Chinese Taipei, Colombia, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, the Philippines, and the United States competed in the three-day event. The SSC is one of the most visible buildings on the UH campus. The arena stands 113feet tall and is capped by an aluminum dome.

The dome roof of the SSC is designed to hold over 100,000 pounds of scoreboard, speakers, catwalks, divider drapes, and a 104-foot by 130-foot rigging grid. The catwalk itself can support nearly 145,000 pounds of light- and sound-rigging equipment. In 1998, the SSC saw its first phase of renovations. The renovations included four home locker rooms, three visitor locker rooms, an official’s locker room, a player lounge and rest area, a full-size training facility, equipment and laundry room, three hospitality rooms, three classrooms, an interview room, and a teaching lab. A new scoreboard is also on the horizon. The SSC is also home to the new Edwin S.N. Wong Hospitality Suite, named after longtime supporter, the late Ed Wong. The Alexander C. Waterhouse Physiology, Research and Training Facility is housed on the ground-floor level of the SSC. Over 400 student-athletes train in the 10,000-square-foot weight training and conditioning center. The facility was named after Alec Waterhouse, who is described as the “Patron Saint” of UH football. Rich Sheriff, the youngest son of Stan, has been managing the SSC since its opening and is assisted by Russ Gima and Brett Holm. Students provide a vital work force in the arena with more than two dozen employed for the operation of various events.

The LWC holds receptions at the newly renovated clubhouse on the UH Manoa campus. At these gatherings, former athletes have the opportunity to get together and reminisce about their playing days. Aside from enjoying the company of former athletes, the LWC moves beyond socialization by giving back to current student-athletes. In January and March of 2001, the LWC donated laptop computers to the Nagatani Academic Center. With the help of these computers, student-athletes on the road are able to keep up with the demands of school while traveling. The club has also assisted with fund drives for former letterwinners -- the late Ann (Goldensen) Kang (women’s volleyball) and Nate Jackson (football) - to help offset medical costs. The current membership of the LWC is made up of 174 former athletes, with 50 of them being life members. Current members include: UH football head coach June Jones (football, baseball); UH senior women’s administrator Marilyn Moniz-Kaho‘ohanohano (women’s volleyball); radio personality Dr. Larry Price (football, men’s volleyball, track); former NFL running back Gary Allen (football); former dean of the UH College of Education, Dr. Charles Araki (football, track); UH men’s basketball color analyst Artie Wilson (men’s basketball, baseball); chairman of the board and director of the Finance Factors family of companies, Daniel Lau (baseball, track); and UH men’s basketball associate head coach Bob Nash (men’s basketball). The sole requirement of joining the LWC is to have been listed for at least one year on a roster of any sport recognized by the Athletics Department. Membership dues are based on when eligibility of the member was completed. It’s free for up to two years following completion of eligibility. For those who completed their eligibility 5-plus years since competition, dues are $100 for the first year, $60 for renewal, and $30 for a spouse who is also a former letterwinner. For those enrolled 2-4 years since competition, $50 is due for the first year, $30 for renewal, and $15 for a spouse who is also a former letterwinner. Life members pay a one-time fee of $1000, which is either paid in one full payment, two payments of $500 within a two-year period, or three payments of $350 within a three-year period. The money collected from the lifetime membership fee is added to an endowment fund to ensure the perpetuation of the club. Members of the LWC enjoy benefits which include: a 50-percent discount on a season ticket to a sport of their choice; a free ticket to one game and reception in Honolulu; a decal; subscription to “Rainbow Letters”; a membership directory; and preferred seating for UH football (based on availability). Perhaps the greatest benefit for the members, however, is the opportunity to give something back to the UH athletics programs.

He started his career in athletic training in 1973 as a student at UH. Okasaki went on to graduate with a bachelor’s degree in secondary physical education in 1977 and earned a master’s in secondary curriculum and instruction in 1981. The Waipahu High School graduate is a certified member of the National Athletic Trainers Association. He has two sons, Kevin and Derin. MELODY TOTH Athletic Trainer Melody Toth began her association with UH in 1977. The Hammond, Ind., native is a certified member of the National Athletic Trainers Association. Toth oversees all women’s sports at UH and works directly with the men’s basketball team. Toth is a graduate of Indiana University, where she lettered in both softball and field hockey. Prior to joining the UH staff, she worked as head women’s trainer at San Jose State. DR. ANDREW NICHOLS Head Team Physician Dr. Andrew Nichols started as a full-time team physician at Hawai‘i in 1994. He is also an associate professor of UH’s John A. Burns School of Medicine. A four-year letterman in swimming at Stanford, Nichols competed in the 1976 Olympic Trials. He served as team physician for the U.S. National and Olympic soccer teams from 1990-92 and conducted his private family and sports medicine practice in California before arriving in Honolulu. Nichols and his wife, Carol, live with his two children, Christopher and Alison. 132 With the million-dollar renovation of the Makai Training Room, the University of Hawai‘i athletic training staff can more efficiently service the nearly 500 student-athletes who participate in 19 intercollegiate programs in the athletics department. The newly-designed facility opened in the fall of 2004. It features treatment and taping tables, walk-in whirlpools, and offices for the trainers, physicians, and staff. “We are fortunate that funds were allocated for the renovation of the Makai Training Room,” head athletic trainer Eric Okasaki said. “This has been a long-awaited project. I’m sure the student-athletes, coaches, and staff will appreciate the efforts of those persons that have helped bring this to fruition.” The athletic training staff is headed by two of the most tenured trainers in the country. Okasaki and Melody Toth have nearly 60 years of combined experience in the field of athletic training. To complement them are assistant trainers Jayson Goo and Tara Humphreys. In addition, a number of graduate assistants help in the overall operation of the athletic training office. The staff is responsible for the care, prevention, evaluation, and rehabilitation for each of the student-athletes in their respective athletics programs. All are certified by the National Athletic Trainers Association (NATA) and travel with the various athletics programs. “We’re very fortunate that the school is able to send a certified trainer with most teams while they travel,” Toth said. “Trainers are not only there to give medical attention. Athletes are a long way from home and the trainers fill the need of a family member who cares for them as a person, both mentally and physically.” The athletic training facilities are abundant around the lower campus. The Makai training room houses the football, swimming and diving, water polo and cheerleading programs. The Mauka training room serves the cross country, golf, sailing, soccer, softball, tennis, and track and field programs. Each facility is equipped with the latest technological resources on injury prevention and rehabilitation. Isokinetic and cardiovascular machines, electrical modalities and Xray units are also available. In addition, weights, a total gym, and whirlpools aid in the complete rehabilitation of the studentathlete. In addition, there are training facilities at the Les Murakami Stadium, which serves the needs of the baseball team, and the Stan Sheriff Center, which handles the men’s and women’s volleyball and basketball teams. During the football season, the athletic training staff sets up a temporary facility at Aloha Stadium for home games. Another purpose of the athletic training staff is to assist the Kinesiology and Leisure Science (KLS) program in providing a clinical setting for students to work on Three Decades of Excellence 04 wvb media guide.qxp 8/18/2004 10:25 AM Page 133 ATHLETIC TRAINING ATHLETIC TRAINING GRADUATE ASSISTANTS AND TEAM PHYSICIANS Karin Hines Daniel Mar Chong Renae Shigemura Brian Wong Grad.

They attend most UH-hosted events to provide assistance to the athletic training staff. The medical team conducts general physicals and orthopedic examinations on each student-athlete to ensure they meet the minimum requirements necessary to compete in Division I athletics. JAYSON GOO Assistant Trainer Jayson Goo has worked in the field of athletic training for more than 25 years. In his 20 years at Hawai‘i, Goo has used his expertise to help more than 4,000 studentathletes. Goo, who enjoys biking, skiing and jogging, earned his bachelor’s degree in psychology from Hawai‘i in 1980 and became a certified athletic trainer in 1981. Goo also earned his master’s degree in human performance from San Jose State in 1988. TARA HUMPHREYS Assistant Trainer Tara Humphreys enters her eighth year at UH as assistant athletic trainer.

Cambra is a professor with the Speech Department and the associate dean for Academic Affairs and Student Academic Services in the Colleges of Arts and Sciences at UH. Cambra is responsible for student advising in the Colleges of Arts and Sciences. With the emergence of the Athletics Department’s Academic Center, Cambra, a Big Island native, has branched out to oversee the academic advising for all UH student-athletes. Cambra completed his undergraduate and master’s degrees at UH Manoa, and was awarded a Ph.D. from the University of Washington in 1975. He has co-authored six books and published more than 50 articles in scholarly journals worldwide. During his tenure, Student Academic Services has developed a Freshman Advising Center, Athletics Academic Advising Program, and a joint grant to develop a Professional Advising Center for students planning to attend professional schools. His office also oversees the Freshman Seminar/Rainbow Advantage Program, Honors and the Liberal Studies programs. He is married to Kathy and is the father of twin college-aged sons. LEON SCHUMAKER Director of Student Affairs In 1979, Leon Schumaker initiated the first academic program for the UH Athletics Program. Since then, he has helped thousands of UHM student-athletes achieve their academic goals. Schumaker’s primary responsibility is to assist student-athletes with tuition, housing, books, scholarships, and financial aid. Prior to UH, he served as vice principal at the University Lab School from 1970-79. He graduated from UC Santa Barbara in 1961 with a bachelor’s degree in history economics. While at UCSB, he lettered in football, baseball, and golf. He later received his master’s degree in health physics from Cal State Los Angeles in 1963. He earned a second master’s degree from UCLA in 1965. 134 Each University of Hawai‘i student-athlete faces the demanding responsibility of balancing both academics and athletics. Helping to assist with this challenging task is the Athletics Department’s office of Student Affairs and Student-Athlete Academic Services (SAAS, Colleges of Arts and Sciences), whose qualified academic staff provides athletes with resources and support. In 1999, the million-dollar Nagatani Academic Center (NAC), funded by longtime UH booster Bob Nagatani, was built. The NAC houses both the academic services and student affairs offices. The center was designed in order to offer student-athletes an accessible environment where they can concentrate on their academic pursuits. The NAC is equipped with two computer labs and remains open an average of 70 hours each week. The center also acts as a study hall for UH student-athletes and is the hub of activity for meetings, study groups or one-on-one’s with academic advisors and tutors. SAAS took charge of academic services for the athletics department in 2000 under the guidance of Dr. Ron Cambra. The SAAS advising team oversees the tutoring, advising, and scheduling aspects of each student-athlete. Special programs and services, designed to meet the individual needs of each of the approximately 440 athletes who participate in any of UH’s 19 intercollegiate sports, are provided at SAAS. These comprehensive academic and support programs include academic advising, retention programs, personal, career and performance-enhancement counseling, and a CHAMPS Life Skills Program. The Student Affairs staff assists athletes regarding college and living expenses such as housing, meals, admissions, financial aid and scholarships. In Fall 2002, the NAC annex, located on the second floor of the Athletics Complex, was opened in order to accommodate growing needs of student-athletes. The annex houses a large central study area with three adjacent break-out rooms. Freshmen are required to meet in these mentoring or study group pods and student-athletes log an average of 1,655 study hall hours each week. The NAC provides each student-athlete with the opportunity to reach academic success but more importantly, the center strives to ensure that each student-athlete is provided with the best chance of earning his or her degree. The success of this goal is reflected in the 74-percent graduation rate of student-athletes, which is ranked amongst the highest in the country. In the past six years, the number of scholar-athletes has risen from 112 to 134, a 20-percent increase. At the end of Spring 2004, the student-athlete population boasted a 98-percent retention rate. At the end of the semester, 44 percent of student-athletes (192 students) earned a semester GPA of 3.0 or higher and 17 student-athletes currently carry a 4.0 GPA for the Spring 2004 semester.

WATERHOUSE TRAINING FACILITY QUICK FACTS 10,000 square feet of room Since its construction in 1994, the Alexander C. Waterhouse Physiology Research and Training Facility has provided University of Hawai‘i student-athletes the tools to excel in their respective sports. With strength and conditioning coach Tommy Heffernan, his assistant Mel deLaura, and graduated assistants Clay Jowers and Chris Kidawski providing guidance, UH athletes are destined for success. Heffernan and crew monitor all UH student-athletes for optimal individual performance and injury prevention. The athletes are provided the opportunity to use various strength, flexibility and conditioning methods, along with an education in body-type testing and nutrition. From the time the athletes enter school, records are maintained to chart their career progression. The 10,000-square-foot facility is named after the late Alexander C. Waterhouse, who was inducted to the UH Circle of Honor in 1997. Waterhouse, a lifelong supporter of Hawai‘i athletics, was the founder and chairman of the Nā Koa Football Booster Club and a member of the ‘Ahahui Koa Anuenue Board of Directors. Before his passing in March 1999, Waterhouse presented the University with a $300,000 contribution to establish one of the finest training facilities in the country.

Ticket Manager Asst. Ticket Manager Keri Iwaki Kelsy Yoshimura Asst. to the Ticket Manager Asst. to the Ticket Manager The success of University of Hawai‘i athletics teams has created a high demand for tickets to “the only game in town.” When the Stan Sheriff Center opened its doors in 1994, the UH Athletics Ticket Office received a new and spacious home. In addition to the new location the UH Ticket Office received upon the opening of the Stan Sheriff Center, a new computerized Paciolan Ticketing System was also launched. The new system, which was upgraded in May 2003, allows more efficient advanced-ticket sales, prolonged selling periods, and provides fans with improved service. The most notable feature of the upgrade enables the UH Ticket Office to process Internet transactions, which offers fans the convenience of real-time access to ticket inventory on a 24/7 basis. Paciolan’s improved technology features a seamless integration between the Ticket Office, ‘Ahahui Koa Anuenue, and the Athletics Department’s sales website at eTicketHawaii.com. Since the introduction of this new technology, the UH Ticket Office has teamed up with the Aloha Stadium Box Office in order to provide outlet and phone sales support. The new partnership allows fans to purchase tickets to any UH sporting event at Aloha Stadium. In the past, fans could only purchase football tickets at the stadium. In addition to the Aloha Stadium Box Office, fans can purchase tickets at the UH Campus Center, the RainbowTique at Ward Centre, and the Windward Community College OCET office. To better service UH fans, all of the affiliated ticket outlets (including the website and phone sales) have live access to the same available seats for any UH sporting event. Tickets may also be purchased by calling 944-BOWS (2697), with season tickets being handled by the UH Ticket Office and individual (single game) tickets being handled by Aloha Stadium Box Office. Long-time ticket manager Edith Tanida retired during the 2003-04 year after 28 years of dedicated service. Currently, the ticket office’s most tenured assistant, Donna Lee Tengan, has been with the office for the past 25 years. She is responsible for managing the overall operation of the office. Laura Chun, assistant ticket manager, is a 14-year veteran to the office. Her duties entail the supervision of the numerous student employees and accounting functions for the office. She is assisted by the newest member of the ticket office staff, Keri Iwaki. In 1996, Walter Watanabe signed on as assistant manager and handles the daily management of the computerized ticketing system and establishes long-range plans for the office. Assistant ticket manager Brad Motooka came on board in 2001 and handles ticket price-level creation, reordering and reallocating previous year’s season-ticket holders, creating facility maps, and setting up the interface for ticket sellers.
