Printing by Hagadone Printing Company 2005 Rainbow Wahine Volleyball 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 05 wvb media guide.qxp 8/4/2005 11:39 AM Page 2 GOVERNOR’S MESSAGE OFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR Aloha! I wish to extend my warmest aloha to the University of Hawai‘i’s student-athletes, coaches and staff for their outstanding athletic and academic achievements. Our state takes great pride in the accomplishments of the UH intercollegiate athletics program, and we look forward to another year of exciting action. UH sports teams continue to perform at a high level. Last season, we watched quarterback Timmy Chang close out his record-setting collegiate career by leading the Warriors to a thrilling victory in the Sheraton Hawai‘i Bowl. And who could forget the stunning performance of our Rainbow Wahine volleyball team led by head coach Dave Shoji, as these young student-athletes turned what was initially regarded as a rebuilding year into a dramatic run for the national championship. We are also proud of UH’s commitment to academics, in that 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. Many UH student-athletes have made it into the professional ranks or gone on to become leaders in other fields. Such accomplishments enhance the University’s and state’s overall international reputation. On behalf of the people of Hawai‘i, I commend the UH Athletics program and Athletics Director Herman Frazier for the unwavering commitment to excellence, and offer my best wishes for 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 fulltime 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 a seven-member staff and several student assistants, headed by director Lois Manin. For the past 15 years – 10 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 60 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. Recent additions to the site include an interactive fan poll, weekly trivia contest, and travel bookings. Website visitors can enjoy savings on travel and support UH Athletics as the department has teamed up with Panda Travel to create a new online travel site that offers savings and special discounts to customers. The travel site is powered by Panda Travel. An assortment of special offers and promotions will be featured during the course of the year. UH fans and travelers looking for cost-saving opportunities are encouraged to utilize this new travel site. In addition to benefits for the users, it will generate muchneeded funds for UH’s 19 men’s and women’s teams. In the summer of 2005, 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 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 5,750 “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. PRESS CREDENTIALS Requests for working press, photo and broadcast credentials for 2005 home volleyball matches should be made in writing on company letterhead at least two weeks prior to the match.

Honolulu, HI 96822-2370 Credentials will be available on match day at the pass gate of the Stan Sheriff Center. A picture ID is required to pick up items at the pass gate. Due to the limited space available on press row, those news outlets covering the Rainbow Wahine or their opponents on a regular basis will receive top priority. All other credentials for print media are issued on the basis of space availability. KKEA, which has the radio rights for UH volleyball, will be the only local radio station to receive season credentials. Local radio stations with a full-time sports director conducting a daily sports show of notable length will receive first consideration. 2005 Rainbow Wahine Volleyball INTERVIEW POLICY 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. If you wish to interview a particular player at a specific time, in person or by telephone, arrangements should be made through the Sports Media Relations Office at least 24 HOURS IN ADVANCE. The best time to reach Coach Dave Shoji is between 8 a.m. and noon on weekdays. PHOTOGRAPHERS Photo passes are available for accredited news media and should be ordered in the same manner as press credentials. In accordance with NCAA and WAC rules, photographers must wear their credentials and must stay within the designated photo area. No credentials will be issued to freelance photographers, cutline workers, equipment carriers or radio station representatives, except for the two originating stations. SERVICES Programs and pre-game notes will be distributed prior to each match. End-of-match box scores will be distributed after each match. Final box scores with play-by-play will be available at the conclusion of the match. A fax machine is available in the press room.

With nine members in New Mexico, Louisiana, Commissioner Idaho, Nevada, Karl Benson California, Utah, and Hawai‘i, the WAC continues to build upon 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 44th 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 1962-63 academic year, and several changes have occurred since. UTEP and Colorado State became members in September 1967, while Arizona and Arizona State withdrew 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 June 30, 1999. Boise State and Louisiana Tech became WAC members on July 1, 2001, while TCU withdrew following the 2000-01 season. This year, three more additions join the league in Idaho, New Mexico State, and Utah State (July 1, 2005), while Rice, SMU, UTEP, and Tulsa withdrew from the conference July 1, 2005. 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 19 sports - eight men’s and 11 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, gymnastics, 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.

He opened the season with little expectations of what was his youngest team ever. But the young Rainbow Wahine had a surprise in store for Shoji, along with the rest of the state. Hawai‘i scratched and clawed its way to the program’s second undefeated regular season, winning 30 matches before suffering its first loss at the hands of Wisconsin in the NCAA Regional. Shoji coached his 1,000th collegiate match on Sept. 25, 2004, against Pepperdine, collected his 850th win on the same night, and guided his Rainbow Wahine to an unexpected seventhstraight regional. He also earned WAC and AVCA Region Coach of the Year honors, the eighth of each in his career. “Last year just reaffirmed our belief in the philosophy of how we train,” Shoji said. “We believe being as fit as we can be, taking a lot of repetitions and being technically sound, then taking what we have and conforming a system best suited for the players on the team.” Shoji then received another honor in February 2005 as he was inducted into the Hawai‘i Sports Hall of Fame. “It was a great honor to be inducted into the Hall of Fame,” Shoji said. “For me to be included in that elite group of athletes is a tribute to the Rainbow Wahine volleyball program, and everyone who has been involved can share the honor with me.” In 1975, a young Shoji took over the reins of the University of Hawai‘i women’s volleyball program. He 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 Championship. In Shoji’s first four years at the helm of the program, he would take the team to two more national title matches before it 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 full-time 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 Center. Klum Gym is where the state of Hawai‘i fell in love with volleyball.” 2005 Rainbow Wahine Volleyball 05 wvb media guide.qxp 8/4/2005 11:42 AM Page 13 HEAD COACH DAVE SHOJI The team lost 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 Final in 1998 and was one of the top seeds in the 1999 tournament before a scrappy Texas A&M team beat UH in the regionals. Following that season, Louisiana-native 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 2000-03, the Rainbow Wahine advanced to the NCAA Championship national semifinal match three times, while Shoji’s 2003 senior class became the winningest class in school history. Under Shoji, UH volleyball finished in the Top 10 in 19 of the 23 final AVCA polls, and ranked in the top five 14 times. They have made it to the postseason in all but one year, finishing with a winning record in all 30 seasons.

Now good players come from all over the country. It’s gone from a regional sport to a national sport.” Shoji was a three-sport athlete at Upland High School in California, playing football, basketball and baseball. He then moved on to UC Santa Barbara, where he played baseball for a year, along with three years of volleyball. He earned All-America honors as a volleyball player in 1968 and ’69. He earned his bachelor’s degree in physical education in 1969. After spending two years in the U.S. Army, Shoji returned to Hawai‘i to coach the Kalani High School girls’ and boys’ volleyball teams. He then took an assistant coaching job at Punahou School. Shoji and his wife, the former Mary Tennefos, reside in Manoa. They have three children. Cobey, 26, works at Stanford University; Kawika, 17, is a senior at Iolani School; and Erik, 16, is a sophomore at Punahou School.

He finished his first season with a 16-2 record, falling 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. 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, beating 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 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 it swept through Stanford and then UCLA to win its second straight NCAA title. The team ended up with a 34-2 record, and was 104-5 in the first three years of NCAA competition. 1985 1983 UH gave Shoji his 300th career victory on Oct. 10 in Los Angeles, as it beat Pepperdine, 1513, 9-15 and 15-12, at the 1985 UCLA/NIVT. Hawai‘i finished the tournament with a 5-1 record. Shoji led the Rainbow Wahine to their 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 defeating 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. The team returned to the NCAA Championships later that season, but fell to Texas in the NCAA title match. 1988 14 2005 Rainbow Wahine Volleyball 05 wvb media guide.qxp 8/4/2005 11:42 AM Page 15 SHOJI THROUGH THE YEARS 1992 Win No. 500 came for Shoji in a 15-6, 12-15, 15-10, 15-3 win over Houston in the 1992 season-opening match in the Hawaiian Airlines Wahine Classic on Sept. 3. That would be a good start to what would be a tough season for Hawai‘i, as it became the only team in Shoji’s career not to 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 reach the 800-win 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, La. 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 its goal of a fifth national title, losing in four games to Florida, the Rainbow Wahine did reel off their 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 coached his 30th season at UH, leading his team to a 30-1 record, the third-best in school history, in what was supposed to be a rebuilding year. Shoji coached his 1,000th career match on Sept. 25 vs. Pepperdine. He continues to be one of the top coaches in the country, carrying a .853 career-winning percentage, best among active coaches. 2004 2005 Rainbow Wahine Volleyball 15 05 wvb media guide.qxp 8/4/2005 11:43 AM Page 16 ASSOCIATE HEAD COACH CHARLIE WADE Charlie Wade enters his 11th season with the Rainbow Wahine volleyball staff, sixth as associate head coach. Wade’s main responsibilities include being the program’s primary recruiter, breaking down film, producing scouting reports and providing technical training during practices. “Charlie’s expertise in the gym with the technical aspect of volleyball keeps giving us a competitive product on the court,” praised Dave Shoji. “He continues to challenge our players and make them realize their potential.” As a recruiter, Wade has made a huge impact on the program, bringing in many of the top players in the country over the past nine years. Hawai‘i’s recruiting classes have been consistently ranked among the top 10 in the country. “He recruits 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.” In 2004, Wade got his first taste of being the head coach for the Rainbow Wahine. Shoji missed three road matches because of a family emergency, leaving Wade as the acting head coach for three Hawai‘i victories at San Jose State (10/27), Boise State (10/29) and Utah State (11/23). Wade started his coaching career as a club coach in 1986. He founded the Magnum Volleyball 16 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. 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 many former Rainbow Wahine along with current U.S. national team member Lindsey Berg. Wade was born in Redondo Beach, Calif. He moved to 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 with their infant son, Jeffrey Charles Makana II. He’s an avid golfer and also enjoys hiking, snorkeling and playing beach volleyball. 2005 Rainbow Wahine Volleyball 05 wvb media guide.qxp 8/4/2005 11:43 AM Page 17 ASSISTANT COACH KARI AMBROZICH Kari Ambrozich, formerly Kari Anderson, begins her ninth year with the Rainbow Wahine coaching staff after she was a setter at UH for four years. Ambrozich’s main responsibilities include charting the academic progress of the players, providing administrative assistance and working directly with the setters. “Kari’s role has been constantly expanding every year,” Dave Shoji said. “She has taken on every task and done a terrific job with it. She’s good in the gym and in the office, and I think she is an invaluable part of our staff.” Under Ambrozich’s tutelage, the Rainbow Wahine have led the country in assists per game in each of the last two seasons. In 1998, setter Nikki Hubbert broke the school’s single-season record for assists (1,782) and assist average (14.61). As a four-year letterwinner for the Rainbow Wahine, she still ranks in the Top 10 all-time on the UH career list with 2,385 assists and a 10.51 assist average. During her junior and senior seasons, she captained the squad and was also named second team all-Big West in 1992. Ambrozich graduated from UH in 1996 with a bachelor’s degree in business administration in international business. Ambrozich also served as a coach for the Asics Rainbow Volleyball Club for seven years, where she led her 14-open team to a national title in 1999. Ambrozich made her way to Hawai‘i as a highly touted prepster out of Columbia Heights High School in Minnesota, where she guided her team to consecutive state championships in 1989 and ’90. Her many accolades include Metro Area Player of the Year, four All-America teams, all-state, all-Metro Area and all-conference. She resides in Kaneohe with her husband, Eric, who is a former UH basketball player, and their dog, Bravo. Her hobbies include running, reading and going to the movies.

Over the years, Buccella has assisted with numerous clubs and camps, including the Asics Rainbow Volleyball Club, Wahine Volleyball Camp and the Pono Ma‘a Beach Volleyball Clinic. Buccella also assisted Kari Ambrozich with the Asics 14-Open team, which captured the national title at the Junior Olympic National Championships in New Orleans, La. From 1994-95, he also volunteered for Kamehameha Schools’ girls’ intermediate and junior varsity volleyball teams, and assisted with the girls’ paddling team. The 1995 junior varsity team won the Interscholastic League of Honolulu (ILH) volleyball championship. Following Kamehameha, Buccella assumed the duties of girls’ intermediate volleyball head coach at Mid-Pacific Institute from 1996-97. Buccella attended Massasoit Community College in Brockton, Mass., where he earned his associate’s degree in data processing in 1985. Buccella prepped at Silver Lake Regional High School in Kingston, Mass., where he lettered in baseball for four years. He currently lives in Honolulu, where he is a technical support supervisor for a high-tech computer software company. SHELTON TANG TARA HUMPHREYS Video Coordinator Trainer Shelton Tang enters his 12th year as a member of the Rainbow Wahine volleyball staff. He has been assisting head coach Dave Shoji with many of the practice and game duties, as well as video coordination since 1994. In addition to his Rainbow Wahine volleyball duties, Tang has served as a director and coach for his club, IMPACT Hawai‘i, since 2000. Tang graduated from UH with a bachelor of science degree in electrical engineering. Currently, he is the Hawai‘i director of the American Sports Organization, coordinating sports that include volleyball, basketball, baseball and other sports programs for youth teams. Tang lives in Honolulu, where he enjoys exercising, surfing the Internet, and collecting memorabilia. 18 Ryan Tsuji enters his fifth year assisting the Rainbow Wahine, third as the team’s manager. Tsuji helps with the preparation and organization of team practices and assists the coaching staff during matches. He is a senior at UH, majoring in political science. Tsuji was a four-year letterwinner in volleyball at Waiakea High School, where he graduated in 2001. He was named honorable mention all-state and first team all-Big Island Interscholastic Federation. He also helped his club team, Pilipa‘a, place eighth overall at the Junior Olympics in 2001. While at UH, Tsuji started the “Warrior to Warrior Program,” which helps incoming UH Manoa freshmen from Waiakea adjust to collegiate life. He recently served as assistant coach for Pilipa‘a in the summer of 2004, 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 of 2003 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. Tara Humphreys enters her ninth year at UH as assistant athletic trainer but is joining the Rainbow Wahine volleyball program for her first year. Humphreys had served as the trainer for the Warrior volleyball and Rainbow Wahine basketball teams. Prior to arriving at UH, she served as a trainer at Concordia College from 1995-97 and at St. Thomas Aquinas from 1994-95. She was a student trainer at Loyola Marymount University, where she earned a B.S. in biology in 1994.

Humphreys resides in Kailua with her husband, Rick, and their daughters, Emma and Hannah. 2005 Rainbow Wahine Volleyball 05 wvb media guide.qxp 8/8/2005 9:44 AM Page 19 SEASON OUTLOOK “This preseason schedule could be the toughest we’ve ever had,” Shoji said. “In playing the likes of Nebraska, Penn State, USC, UCLA, Washington and possibly Stanford, it’ll definitely help to prepare us for our conference and go a long way in determining our national seed.” Also adding to the toughness of the schedule is the addition of Utah State, New Mexico State and Idaho to the Western Athletic Conference. “It will be interesting to see what the new teams add to the WAC this year,” Shoji said. “They all bring something to the conference as they’ve all been to the NCAA Tournament recently. Overall, it’ll be a much stronger conference with the new teams.” SETTER Two-time All-American Kanoe Kamana‘o In what was supposed to be a rebuilding year in 2004, Hawai‘i went 30-1, holding the nation’s best winning percentage at .968 and was the only team to enter the NCAA Tournament undefeated. But you can only shock the country once, so the 2005 Rainbow Wahine expect to have the familiar target on their backs as they strive to return to the NCAA Championships in search of a fifth national title. “Our long-term goal is to win another national title,” said Dave Shoji, who enters his 31st year as the head coach of the Rainbow Wahine. “But, for now, we just want to be as good as we can be and improve daily.” The majority of last year’s team returns, including all seven starters and 12 of the 14 letterwinners. “We have a solid nucleus coming off a fantastic year,” said Shoji. “We’ll be a little deeper with the addition of newcomers Sarah Mason and Jamie Houston and last seasons’ redshirts, Nickie Thomas and Jessica Keefe. “With all of our depth, the team’s chemistry will be a key. Although it is mostly the same players, the chemistry will probably be different. Expectations will be higher and there is more depth, so there will be competition for some spots in the starting lineup. Once we have our lineup established, we’ll have to work on the team concept. I hope that everyone will want to win and that the team concept will carry us as far as we can go.” The team will need to come together early, as UH is facing what could be its toughest schedule in years. They open the season at the AVCA/NACWAA Volleyball Showcase in Omaha, Neb., facing perennial powerhouse Nebraska, then either Penn State or defending national champion Stanford. Other teams on UH’s non-conference schedule include 2004 NCAA Championships participants USC and Washington, and another volleyball power in UCLA. 2005 Rainbow Wahine Volleyball Kanoe Kamana‘o (5-8, Honolulu) returns as the starting setter after earning All-America honors in both her freshman and sophomore years. In 2004, Kamana‘o was the only player in the country to average over 13 assists per game, three digs per game and one block per game on the season. “Kanoe is coming off a great year in 2004 and a stint with the U.S. National Team this past summer,” Shoji said. “She’ll again be the center of the team. With another year of experience and another year with our quick attack, she’ll continue to make everyone better.” Backing up Kamana‘o for the third straight year will be Cayley Thurlby (5-11, Naperville, IL). “Cayley will continue to give us depth at the setter position,” Shoji said. “She’s experienced enough to step right in and run our team if she has to. But she can also give us some depth in the back court with passing and defense.” Second-team All-American Victoria Prince 19 05 wvb media guide.qxp 8/4/2005 11:43 AM Page 20 SEASON OUTLOOK MIDDLE HITTER With three players with starting experience in the middle returning, and one redshirt coming in with valuable experience in practice, the Rainbow Wahine are loaded at the middle hitter position. One of the starting spots will be occupied by senior Victoria Prince (6-0, Kennewick, WA), who returns after earning AllAmerica honors last season, recording the second-best single-season hitting percentage in school history (.411). “Victoria had a fantastic year offensively,” Shoji exclaimed. “We’ll be hoping for the same, if not better, this year, although it’ll be tough to do any better, statistically. She hits for a high percentage, and we’ll need more of that to be successful. She also helps us a lot with a tough jump serve. We’ll need her to improve a little on her blocking stats. Although she did well last season, if she can improve on her blocking, it’ll really help the team. “Victoria also had a great spring. She worked really hard in the weight room and has improved on her jumping and her strength.” The other starting job was split by Juliana Sanders (6-2, Kaneohe, Oahu) and Kari Gregory (6-2, Las Vegas) in 2004 and it could be the same this season. “Both Juliana and Kari did a wonderful job last year,” Shoji said. “We’re confident that either can go in and do the job. Sanders is more of an offensive threat while Gregory is a better blocker. We may just use them again in the same role we did last year. Juliana has also been struggling with injuries, but we hope to have her healthy for the beginning of the season.” Also in the mix is redshirt freshman Nickie Thomas (6-3, Austin, TX). “Nickie had a good spring,” Shoji said. “She’s physically stronger and will be able to give us a physical presence in the middle. She just needs some game experience.” First-team all-WAC Alicia Arnott 20 Second-team all-WAC Susie Boogaard OUTSIDE HITTER All three returning outside hitters return from the 2004 team, but competition will be fierce as six players vie for playing time at both the left-side and right-side hitter positions. Susie Boogaard (6-2, Bellflower, CA) and Alicia Arnott (6-0, Hilo, Hawai‘i) started on the left in 2004 with Tara Hittle (6-0, Colorado Springs, CO) on the right. “Our incumbent lefts are Boogaard and Arnott,” Shoji explained. “But we experimented with Boogaard on the right during the spring and that is probably what we’ll do this season. There will be a little change in the alignment even though we return all three starters.” The left-side hitter position will also be bolstered by the additions of Sarah Mason (6-3, Hilo, Hawai‘i), a transfer from Oregon, redshirt freshman Jessica Keefe (6-1, Ames, IA) and incoming freshman Jamie Houston (6-2, Huntsville, AL). “All of the above will be given reps on both the left and the right,” Shoji added. Boogaard is expected to start at the right-side hitter position after garnering second team all-WAC honors. “Boogaard is just a solid volleyball player,” Shoji said. “She has great skills and is good at passing, blocking and setting. She’s well suited for the right. She can also remain in the passing formation for all six rotations. Susie’s also a solid line blocker, which is what we’ll need from the right. Offensively, she’ll have less attempts, but we’ll still be looking for her to contribute.” Arnott looks to return to the left after a 2004 campaign that earned her first team all-WAC honors. 2005 Rainbow Wahine Volleyball 05 wvb media guide.qxp 8/4/2005 11:43 AM Page 21 SEASON OUTLOOK “Arnott had a great sophomore year,” said Shoji. “She hit for an acceptable percentage for the amount of sets she saw. She just has to work on improving those numbers to stay competitive at that position.” Hittle started most of the 2004 season at the right-side hitter position, earning WAC Freshman of the Year honors, but will likely move over to the left in 2005. “Hittle had a tremendous year that we weren’t expecting from her in her first year in college,” Shoji admitted. “She added a lot to the mix in terms of energy and an overall feel for the game. She will need more consistency this year and hit for a higher percentage. She’ll also be a primary passer and will help us on defense with her great foot speed. If she can hit for a high percentage, she’ll add to our overall effectiveness.” Mason comes to UH after spending two years at Oregon, where she earned all-Pac 10 honorable-mention honors in 2004. “Mason adds a different look for us on the outside,” said Shoji. “She has great size and a whip of an arm. She could really give us a lot offensively on the left, but could be looking at her on the right because she has good blocking skills. We’ll see where she fits in after fall camp.” Houston gained valuable experience this past season, playing on the U.S. Junior National Team. “Houston will be the unknown X-factor,” Shoji said. “She possesses a great vertical and can really hit the ball. It’s too early to say what kind of contribution she’ll make. We’ll have to find out when she gets here.” Keefe is coming off a redshirt season while recovering from knee surgery. “Keefe is vastly improved,” Shoji said. “She has a very quick arm and showed us that she can put the ball down during some of the spring matches.” Caroline Blood (6-0, Long Beach, CA) could also figure in on the outside or in the middle. The former UH softball player saw limited playing time in 2004, but recorded the match-winning block vs. Boise State. DEPTH CHART Setter Kanoe Kamana‘o Cayley Thurlby Left-side Hitter Alicia Arnott Tara Hittle Sarah Mason Jessica Keefe Jamie Houston Middle Hitter Victoria Prince Kari Gregory or Juliana Sanders Nickie Thomas Caroline Blood Right-side Hitter Susie Boogaard Sarah Mason Jessica Keefe Caroline Blood “Blood is just an outstanding athlete,” Shoji said. “She just needs to improve on her skills. She has the ability to learn the game and it’s just a matter of time before she gains enough technique and experience.” Second-team all-WAC Ashley Watanabe LIBERO/DEFENSIVE SPECIALIST Ashley Watanabe (5-6, Aiea, Oahu) was a second team all-WAC honoree in 2004 and returns to the libero position where she broke the school record for digs per game in a season. “Watanabe is the leading candidate for libero,” Shoji said. “She’s earned the spot right now. We hope she has a great senior season, because that would go a long way towards our success. She has enough experience and has taken enough reps that it should be automatic to her.” Backing up Watanabe at libero are Kelly Ong (5-5, Oakland, CA) and Raeceen Woolford (5-7, Pearl City, Oahu), who may also see playing time as defensive subs. “Ong gave us some valuable moments last year,” Shoji recalled. “She can give us a lot as a serving specialist, where she created a lot of situations that converted to points. She’ll play the same role this year, coming in to serve and play defense. “Woolford continues to improve. Athletically, she’s perfect for the libero spot, but she needs to pass consistently. She’s very close to contributing.” Libero/DS Ashley Watanabe Kelly Ong Raeceen Woolford Cayley Thurlby 2005 Rainbow Wahine Volleyball 21 05 wvb media guide.qxp 8/4/2005 11:44 AM Page 22 ROSTER NUMERICAL ROSTER No. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 13 14 15 16 17 Player Juliana Sanders Susie Boogaard Tara Hittle Kari Gregory Caroline Blood Jessica Keefe Alicia Arnott Jamie Houston Nickie Thomas Kanoe Kamana‘o Ashley Watanabe Cayley Thurlby Kelly Ong Raeceen Woolford Victoria Prince Sarah Mason Pos.

UH won a hard-fought game one, 3230, only to struggle in a 20-30 loss in game two. They then won game three, 30-23, before losing the fourth game, 27-30, setting up the decisive game five. The Rainbow Wahine started game five with a 10-6 edge, only to see UCLA come back and put Hawai‘i on the ropes at 13-11. But the never-say-die attitude of UH brought them back, scoring the final four points, capped by a match-winning block by Susie Boogaard and Victoria Prince, to take game five, 15-13. Soon after its third five-game victory in just six matches, UH earned the nickname of “Cardiac Keiki (Kids).” Kanoe Kamana‘o Rebuilding Year? After losing what may have been one of the greatest classes in school history to graduation, expectations for the 2004 Rainbow Wahine volleyball team were low. Some said their preseason top 25 ranking of 13 was much too high. Some asked if it would be the year that UH’s streak of WAC championships and WAC matches would be snapped. On paper, it seemed that all of these things could be true. But the experts aren’t always right. Sometimes there are factors that don’t show up on paper. The 2004 Rainbow Wahine set out to prove everyone wrong. Quick Attack The Rainbow Wahine also started to change the style of play from what they had traditionally been. Instead of the overpowering “set it high and pound it over them” approach in the days of Kim Willoughby and Lily Kahumoku, Hawai‘i switched to a balanced, quick-attack offense that saw four different players average more than 2.5 kills per game. Hawai‘i kept its sets low and quick to beat opposing blockers to the point of attack. UH also had one of its best blocking seasons in recent memory, putting up 3.37 blocks per game, the most since 1999 and the eighth-most in program history. “Cardiac Keiki” The Rainbow Wahine opened the season with 10 non-conference matches which included five teams that were ranked in the preseason top 25 poll. After opening the season with a sweep of Eastern Washington, UH won two fivegame matches against San Diego and No. 17 Arizona to take the Hawaiian Airlines Wahine Classic title. Hawai‘i then beat Southwest Missouri State and No. 17 Santa Clara, both in four games, to open the Mauna Loa Macadamia Nut Challenge, taking a 5-0 record into its annual meeting with UCLA. The Bruins came into the match with a No. 3 national ranking, and were eyeing the 2005 Rainbow Wahine Volleyball Tara Hittle Victoria Prince A Grand Milestone Already shocking the nation with a 6-0 record and three wins over ranked opponents, the Rainbow Wahine marched on, sweeping No. 14 California and beating UC Irvine in four to win the Waikiki Beach Marriott Invitational title. This left UH with just two matches against Pepperdine before starting the defense of its Western Athletic Conference title. Hawai‘i swept the Waves in the first match, but it was the second Pepperdine match that had greater meaning as it marked Dave Shoji’s 1,000th career match as head coach of the Rainbow Wahine. The match honored Shoji’s coaching perfectly as UH won with exceptional floor defense, recording a school rally-scoring record 119 team digs, including 30 by setter Kanoe Kamana‘o. New Stars Emerge on the Road As the season went along, different players started to step up to keep UH’s unbeaten record alive. In fact, on each of their road trips, a Rainbow Wahine came back to capture WAC Player of the Week honors. On the first road trip it was freshman Tara Hittle. In the WAC opener at Fresno State, Hittle hit .625 with 22 kills and 10 digs. She then came up with 19 kills and a .545 hitting percentage at Nevada, earning her both WAC and CVU.com National Player of the Week honors. 55 05 wvb media guide.qxp 8/4/2005 11:51 AM Page 56 2004 SEASON REVIEW Alicia Arnott became the hero on UH’s second road trip. She became just the third player in school history to record 30-plus kills with a hitting percentage over .450 as she posted 30 kills with a .463 hitting percentage and 19 digs at SMU. Prince took her turn on the final regular-season road trip to San Jose and Boise. In the two matches, the middle hit .435 with 4.38 kills per game, 1.88 blocks per game and 0.50 aces per game. Prince continued to shine on the next road trip, at the WAC Tournament in Reno, Nev., earning Most Valuable Player honors. 10 Years of Big Crowds and Wins UH’s Stan Sheriff Center celebrated its 10th anniversary as the home of Hawai‘i arena sports with the Rainbow Wahine’s win over Rice on Oct. 21. Since its opening in 1994, the arena has been the home of the biggest crowds in women’s volleyball every year. Hawai‘i has led the nation in attendance every full season that they have been in the SSC. Last year, the Rainbow Wahine again led the nation in attendance in 2004, averaging 7,135 per match. UH has an overall record of 199-14 (.934) in the arena and is currently riding the nation’s longest home-winning streak at 38 matches. Susie Boogaard 56 27 wins in games three and four to clinch its fifth-straight WAC Tournament title. Number One Again Just a day after winning the WAC Tournament championship, the Rainbow Wahine found themselves atop the USA Today/AVCA Coaches Poll for the first time since 2002. But their stay on top lasted just one week as Nebraska moved ahead of the Rainbow Wahine in the next poll. Undefeated Regular Season Although they were again pushed to the limit, falling behind 0-2 at Utah State before battling to a five-game victory, and needing four games to win at No. 19 Utah, the Rainbow Wahine closed out the 2004 regular season unblemished with a perfect 28-0 record. 2004 ALL-WAC TEAMS Alicia Arnott Threats to the Streak Hawai‘i continued its dominance of the Western Athletic Conference, winning its ninth-straight regular-season title while pushing its conference-winning streak to 91 matches. But the WAC teams didn’t make it easy for the Rainbow Wahine. Of their 13 wins in WAC play, five came in four games, while two matches lasted five. Both of the five-gamers came at the expense of Nevada. Hawai‘i trailed the Wolf Pack two games to one in Reno, but fought back to 32-30 and 15-13 wins in games four and five to survive. On senior night in Honolulu, the Rainbow Wahine found themselves down two games to none to Nevada before winning the final three games to keep the streak alive. WAC Tournament Champions After surviving numerous challenges during the regular season, Hawai‘i went into the WAC Tournament knowing it would be a struggle. Hawai‘i beat SMU and Fresno State to set up a third meeting with Nevada in the championship match. The Rainbow Wahine came out firing, winning game one, 30-21. The Pack came back to win the second game, 30-28, before Hawai‘i took the match with 30-22 and 30- First Team Player Alicia Arnott Cameron Flunder Kristina Hoban Beth Karasek Kanoe Kamana‘o Tessa Kuykendall Rebeca Pazo Olaya Pazo Victoria Prince Salaia Salave‘a Jessie Shull Joyce Silva Team Hawai‘i Boise St. Rice SMU Hawai‘i Rice Rice Rice Hawai‘i Nevada SJSU Tulsa Pos.

They then swept Purdue in the second round to advance to their seventh consecutive regional. Kari Gregory The Rainbow Wahine became just the 14th team to enter the NCAA Tournament with an undefeated record in the tournament’s 24-year history. Hawai‘i had one other undefeated regular season, heading into the 1995 NCAA Tournament at 29-0. On the Road Again After almost two weeks on the road to end the regular season, the Rainbow Wahine finally returned home on Thanksgiving Day. But their stay in the islands lasted just the weekend as UH, despite being the only undefeated team in the country, learned that they wouldn’t host the first-and second-rounds of the NCAA Tournament. Instead, they were back on a plane, headed to Ft. Collins, Colo., for the tournament’s first two rounds. Onto the NCAAs Hawai‘i marched on, taking its NCAA Tournament No. 3 seed to the road where they faced Colorado in the first round. But just as it had been all season long, UH would again have a new hurdle to overcome as starting libero Ashley Watanabe broke her wrist in practice just two days before the start of competition. Watanabe was just seven digs shy of the UH single-season record when she suffered the season-ending injury. Despite all the setbacks, the Rainbow Wahine continued to move on.

And with the end of the season marked the end of two careers at Hawai‘i. Teisa Fotu and Melody Eckmier played big roles in the team’s unexpected success in 2004 despite combining for just six starts in the season. The two seniors both had five years of collegiate experience, becoming leaders for the young Rainbow Wahine to follow. Fotu had played at Eastern Arizona and Hawai‘i Pacific before joining Hawai‘i in 2003. She sat out that season before becoming the do-it-all player in 2004. The Laie, Oahu, native played at libero and right-side hitter. On nights that UH needed help in the back row, she’d have 20 digs. When they were in need of help at the net, she had 10 blocks. When Watanabe went out with injury, she became the libero. It always seemed to be just enough to give UH another win. Eckmier was a part of many great UH teams, carrying a 129-11 (.921) record while she played. She was a part of three final four teams, as a redshirt in 2000 and a player in 2002 and ‘03. The Simi Valley, Calif., native left the program with 128 blocks in 133 games played. 2004 AWARD WINNERS Alicia Arnott AVCA All-West Region Honorable Mention All-Western Athletic Conference, First Team All-Tournament, Mauna Loa Macadamia Nut Challenge All Tournament, Waikiki Beach Marriott Invitational All-Tournament, WAC Tournament WAC Player of the Week (Oct. 18) Susie Boogaard All-Western Athletic Conference, Second Team All-Tournament, HAL Wahine Classic Tournament MOP, Waikiki Beach Marriott Invitational All-Tournament, WAC Tournament Academic All-Western Athletic Conference Teisa Fotu Academic All-Western Athletic Conference Tara Hittle Western Athletic Conference Freshman of the Year WAC All-Freshman Team WAC Player of the Week (Oct. 4) CVU.com National Player of the Week (Oct. 4) Kanoe Kamana‘o AVCA All-American, First Team AVCA All-West Region Western Athletic Conference Player of the Year All-Western Athletic Conference, First Team Tournament MOP, HAL Wahine Classic Tournament MOP, Mauna Loa Macadamia Nut Challenge All-Tournament, Waikiki Beach Marriott Invitational All-Tournament, WAC Tournament WAC Player of the Week (Sept. 13) Academic All-Western Athletic Conference CoSIDA Academic All-District VIII, Second Team Victoria Prince AVCA All-American, Second Team AVCA All-West Region All-Western Athletic Conference, First Team All-Tournament, HAL Wahine Classic All-Tournament, Mauna Loa Macadamia Nut Challenge Tournament MVP, WAC Tournament WAC Player of the Week (Nov. 1) Juliana Sanders WAC All-Freshman Team Dave Shoji Western Athletic Conference Coach of the Year West Region Coach of the Year Cayley Thurlby Academic All-Western Athletic Conference Melody Eckmier Ashley Watanabe All-Western Athletic Conference, Second Team All-Tournament, WAC Tournament 2005 Rainbow Wahine Volleyball 05 wvb media guide.qxp 8/4/2005 11:51 AM Page 59 05 wvb media guide.qxp 8/4/2005 11:51 AM Page 60 2004 SEASON STATISTICS Overall Record: 30-1 (Home: 17-0, Away: 9-0, Neutral: 4-1); WAC Record: 13-0 (Home: 7-0, Away: 6-0) Player Prince, Victoria WAC Fotu, Teisa WAC Kamana‘o, Kanoe WAC Eckmier, Melody WAC Sanders, Juliana WAC Gregory, Kari WAC Hittle, Tara WAC Arnott, Alicia WAC Thurlby, Cayley WAC Boogaard, Susie WAC Blood, Caroline WAC Ong, Kelly WAC Silva, Kahea WAC Woolford, Raeceen WAC Watanabe, Ashley WAC Team WAC Hawai‘i WAC Opponents WAC MP/GP 31/119 13/47 31/96 13/34 31/117 13/45 27/39 10/13 26/64 13/30 30/67 12/20 31/113 13/46 31/118 13/46 27/42 11/19 31/120 13/48 3/3 2/2 10/24 4/6 2/2 2/2 22/29 10/13 28/102 13/42 K K/Gm 403 3.39 167 3.55 40 0.42 10 0.29 44 0.38 11 0.24 31 0.79 10 0.77 110 1.72 54 1.80 124 1.85 35 1.75 297 2.63 146 3.17 483 4.09 200 4.35 6 0.14 6 0.32 459 3.83 179 3.73 0 0.00 0 0.00 0 0.00 0 0.00 0 0.00 0 0.00 0 0.00 0 0.00 0 0.00 0 0.00 31/120 1997 16.64 13/48 818 17.04 31/120 1832 15.27 13/48 679 14.15 E TA Pct.

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.

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 20,000 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 reli- gion, 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 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 year-round temperature and close proximity to many outdoor activities offer students an inviting environment to study and live in.

The 50-year-old Frazier earned the distinction of being named among the Top 50 Most Powerful Blacks in Sports in the March 2005 issue of BLACK ENTERPRISE magazine. In the past few 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. And most recently, Frazier was named to the NCAA/USOC Task Force to oversee changes in Olympic sports sponsored by NCAA schools and to the Division I NCAA Football Issues Committee. Frazier, who enters his fourth year overseeing the UH Athletics Department, has faced the challenges head on and realizes there is more work to be done. “I am extremely happy to be entering my fourth year at the University of Hawai‘i,” Frazier said. “We have made big strides in the last three years, but we also know we have a long way to go.” Upgrading the UH athletic facilities is next on Frazier’s agenda to tackle. “As we prepare for the future, we will look at facilities and make that our next big priority,” Frazier pointed out. 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 three 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.” His more than a quarter of a century of experience 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. His ability to lead stems beyond the Pacific Rim into all corners of the world as evident by his latest authoritative role -Chef de Mission of Team USA for the XXVIII Olympiad in 2004 in Athens, Greece. 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 Arizona State University. During his first three years managing the UH athletics department, he has increased the budget from $16 million to $21.3 million for the current 2005-06 year. 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 athletic 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. He graduated from ASU in 1977 with a degree in political science. Frazier made a name for himself in the Olympic Arena running the leadoff leg of the gold medal-winning 4x400-meter relay team, while also garnering a bronze medal in the 400-meter dash at the 1976 XXI Olympiad in Montreal. He was also a gold medalist at both the 1975 and ‘79 PanAmerican Games and was a member of the 1980 U.S. Olympic team that boycotted the XXII Olympiad in Moscow. Frazier is currently engaged to Caroline Beal.

The Rainbow Wahine volleyball team and the Stan Sheriff Center celebrated the 10th anniversary of the arena on Oct. 21, 2004, the same way they’ve co-existed 199 times-with a win. UH defeated Rice in four games, much like its four-game victory over San Jose State to open the arena on Oct. 21, 1994. 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‘i 122 men’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 recently. The men’s basketball team won 24-straight home games between 2001 and ‘03, 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 to the most domi- nating 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 the 1997 and 2004 men’s and the 1999 women’s NCAA volleyball championships. 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 non-UH 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. In the spring of 2004, USA gymnastics hosted the Pacific Alliance Championships at the Stan Sheriff Center.

Kauahikaua and Chun of Honolulu and Heery Architects of Atlanta designed the SSC. The dome roof of the SSC is designed to hold over 100,000 pounds of scoreboard, speakers, catwalks, divider drapes, and a 104foot 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 fullsize 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-squarefoot 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.

To remain competitive and to build on our long history of sporting excellence, the need to build an endowment is at a very critical point in the history of UH Athletics. This permanent fund will provide resources through earned income and creates the road to self-sufficiency. The lasting perpetuity of an endowment provides not only funding but links a donor’s name to the accomplishments of UH Athletics. Leaving a legacy can perpetuate the individual and team successes of student-athletes to bring national and international recognition to the University. Gifting a scholarship endowment can be done in many ways. A gift of cash is the easiest and most direct way to create the endowed fund. Gifts of appreciated securities that are publicly traded (including mutual funds) and real estate are other avenues to endowing the legacy. Special gift arrangements through bequests, charitable remainder trusts, charitable gift annuities, pooled income funds, a gift of life insurance, a gift from a retirement fund or a charitable lead trust are traditional vehicles of support.

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 160 former athletes, with 59 of them being life members. Current members include: UH football head coach June Jones (football, baseball, men’s basketball); 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 to 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. For more information on joining the Letterwinners Club, please call UHLWC Executive Director Erika Buder-Nakasone at (808) 956-6523. LWC members enjoyed a sold-out reception at Mizuno’s Japanese Steakhouse in Las Vegas, Nev., following a University of Hawai‘i football game on Sept. 19, 2003.

He works directly with the football team and oversees the Makai Training Room. Okasaki started his career in athletic training in 1973 as a student at UH. He 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 Head Trainer Melody Toth, who enters her 28th year as an athletic trainer, began her association with UH in 1977. The Hammond, Ind., native is a certified member of the National Athletic Trainers Association. Toth oversees the Mauka Training Room and works directly with the men’s basketball and track and field teams. 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. With the $1 million 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. The athletic training staff is headed by two of the most tenured trainers in the country. Eric Okasaki and Melody Toth have nearly 60 years of combined experience in the field of athletic training. To complement them are veteran assistant trainers Jayson Goo, Tara Humphreys, and Brian Wong. In addition, graduate assistants and student trainers 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. 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 services 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 X-ray units are also available. In addition, weights, a total gym, and whirlpools aid in the complete rehabilitation of the student-athlete. In addition, there are training facilities at the Les Murakami Stadium, which serves 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 their master’s degrees at the University and towards NATA certifications. Student trainers are on-board each year assisting the staff and gaining experience in the field of athletic training. The athletic training staff also includes a medical team, composed of team physicians Dr. Andrew Nichols and Dr. Michelle LaBotz, and a number of consultants from the UH’s School of Medicine. 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. Dr. ANDREW NICHOLS Head Team Physician Dr. Andrew Nichols started as a full-time team physician at Hawai‘i in 1994. Dr. Nichols is also an associate professor of UH’s John A. Burns School of Medicine. A fouryear letterman in swimming at Stanford, he competed in the 1976 Olympic Trials. Dr. Nichols 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.

Cambra is a professor with the Speech Department and the associate dean for Academic Affairs and Student Academic Services in the College of Arts and Sciences at UH. Cambra is responsible for student advising in the College 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. DANIEL ARAKAKI Director of Student Affairs Daniel Arakaki takes over the position of Director of Student Affairs after serving six years as the school’s Compliance Coordinator. The former UH swimmer takes over the post left by longtime director Leon Schumaker. Arakaki’s primary responsibility is to assist student-athletes with admission, housing, scholarships, and financial aid. Arakaki took over the compliance department in 1999. Under his term, the department expanded to three full-time staff members. The Aiea, Oahu, native has been associated with UH for 26 years, beginning with a standout four-year career on the Rainbow swimming team. At the age of 26, Arakaki became the youngest head coach in NCAA Division I history and served for 10 years. Arakaki earned his bachelor’s of science degree in recreational leadership at UH in 1983. He received a master’s degree in athletic administration at Indiana University in 1984. He has one daughter, Aleena. 136 Academics and athletics go hand-in-hand for student-athletes at UH and each one must learn to balance the various demands in their everyday college life. Assisting with this taxing assignment is the Athletics Department’s office of Student Affairs and Student-Athlete Academic Services (SAAS, College of Arts and Sciences), whose qualified academic staff provides athletes with resources and support. The $1 million Nagatani Academic Center (NAC), funded by UH booster Bob Nagatani, was constructed in 1999. The NAC houses both the academic services and student affairs offices. The center was designed 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 for meetings, study groups, and one-on-one sessions with 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 500 athletes who participate in any of UH’s 19 intercollegiate sports, are provided at SAAS. These comprehensive academic and support pro- grams include academic advising, retention programs, personal, career, and performance-enhancement counseling, and a CHAMPS Life Skills Program. The Student Affairs staff assists student-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 to accommodate the 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. The student-athletes as a whole log an average of 1,655 study hall hours each week. The NAC provides each student-athlete with the opportunity to reach academic success. Furthermore, the center strives to ensure that each student-athlete is provided with the best chance of earning a degree. The success of this goal is reflected in the 75-percent graduation rate of student-athletes, which is ranked in the Top 25 among Division I public institutions. In the past seven years, the number of scholar-athletes has risen from 112 to 154, a 37.5-percent increase. At the end of Spring 2005, the student-athlete population boasted a 98-percent retention rate. At the end of the semester, 46 percent of student-athletes (199 students) earned a semester GPA of 3.0 or higher and 15 student-athletes currently carry a 4.0 GPA for the Spring 2005 semester. 2005 Rainbow Wahine Volleyball 05 wvb media guide.qxp 8/4/2005 12:04 PM Page 137 STUDENT AFFAIRS JENNIFER MATSUDA 2005 SPRING WOMEN’S VOLLEYBALL SCHOLAR-ATHLETES Player Alicia Arnott Susie Boogaard Melody Eckmier Teisa Fotu Tara Hittle Kanoe Kamana‘o Kahea Silva Cayley Thurlby Ashley Watanabe Raeceen Woolford Department Chair Student-Athlete Academic Services Major Kinesiology Sociology Geology & Geophysics Biology Kinesiology Communications Business Journalism & Business Business Biology Jennifer Matsuda joined the UH Athletics Department in 1999 after assuming a similar role in the Colleges of Arts and Sciences.
