An Interview with UNCW Head Coach Kelly Van Houten On What it Means to be a Head Coach: It is a great responsibility and privilege to be a head coach at any level. One has the opportunity to make an impact on young women who are learning life lessons and growing up right in front of you. To be a part of their lives at such a delicate time is an amazing experience and one I take very seriously. I welcome the challenge of leading them on the field and mentoring them off the field. I am honored they have chosen to pursue their college experience here at UNCW and have given me the chance to guide them through the challenges of being a student-athlete. I want our players to graduate as women of character and be a positive influence on those they come in contact with. My greatest joy is to see my players’ eyes “light up” when they are successful at whatever it is they are striving to achieve. On Expectations of First Season: We are looking to hit the ground running from the first game to final game. Our goals are not only to get back to the CAA Tournament, but to also win there. We are striving for above .500 season with new statistical records along the way. We have a great group of players who believe this program can be back at the top again and they are willing to do whatever it takes to get it there. On the Colonial Athletic Association: The CAA is a great conference, not only to participate athletically, but also academically. The CAA is very competitive from teams one through eight which makes for an exciting spring season. It is great to compete against teams such as Hofstra who have a tradition of being successful for many years at the conference level as well as the next level. We are constantly being pushed by all the teams in the league to be at our best and that will prepare us for the next level of play. On Recruiting: It is important to choose players who have a love for the game and want to win more than anything. We look for players who are successful in all aspects of their lives, on the field and in the classroom. We want players who come from successful teams in high school and travel ball because that attitude of winning is contagious. It is that success and confidence that will carry over to their teammates and through their college years. On the Importance of Education: Before players can compete on the field, they must first and foremost be successful in the classroom. A college education will carry the players through the rest of their lives long after their softball playing days are over. We want 100 percent graduation from our players, and we look to recruit those individuals who will get the job done in the classroom as much as they do on the field. On UNC Wilmington and What It Means To Be a Seahawk: What an awesome place to be! The tradition of UNCW athletics is strong, and I cannot imagine a better place to be as a first-time head coach. Each day, I am surrounded by academic professionals who love the school and who want the best for the students under their tutelage. I count it a privilege to be part of an athletic department that strives for the best, not only in its student-athletes, but also its coaches and staff. It truly is a family environment where everyone is supporting each other and looking to make each person a better individual. I am honored to have the opportunity to be part of a great university and athletic department, and to call myself a Seahawk! 5 • www.UNCWsports.com 2009 UNCW Softball On What it Takes to Build a Successful Program: As a coach, I have to believe in what I do and that must be seen by the players. A program has to have the athletic ability to compete, but there must be heart and passion in everything we do in order to be successful. We have to do more than just show up for practice; we have to believe in what we are doing and strive to give our best at everything we do. One of my favorite quotes is: It takes hard work and perseverance and teamwork because no one gets there alone.

The CAA encompasses five of the nation’s nine largest metropolitan areas with a geographic footprint that stretches from Boston to Atlanta. The conference has produced 16 national team champions in five different sports, 33 individual national champions, 12 national players of the year, 11 national coaches of the year and 12 Honda Award winners. Even more impressive, however, are the honors accumulated away from competition, which include five Rhodes Scholars and 20 NCAA post-graduate scholars. In 2007-08, the CAA had five ESPN the Magazine Academic All-Americans and more than 1,700 of our 4,000 student-athletes received the Commissioner’s Academic Award after posting at least a 3.2 grade point average while lettering in a varsity sport. The landscape of the conference stretches along the majority of the East Coast and includes six of the nation’s top 25 media markets – New York (1), Philadelphia (4), Boston (7), Washington, D.C. (8), Atlanta (9) and Baltimore (24). The number of television homes in the CAA market exceeds 19.7 million. The CAA currently sponsors 22 sports with the addition of a 12-team football league in 2007. Male athletes compete for championships in baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, lacrosse, soccer, swimming and diving, tennis, track and field and wrestling. Female athletes battle for conference titles in basketball, cross country, field hockey, golf, lacrosse, soccer, softball, swimming and diving, tennis, track and field and volleyball. In 2007-08, 26 teams earned NCAA Tournament berths and 46 student-athletes received All-America honors. Known nationally as a mid-major power in both men’s and women’s basketball, the conference also excels in many other sports. CAA squads have combined to win 10 field hockey national titles since the championship began in 1981. Delaware and Towson have each reached the Final Four of the NCAA Men’s Lacrosse Championship. For the first time, three women’s soccer teams reached the second round of the NCAA Tournament in 2007 and at least one men’s soccer team has advanced to the final 16 of the NCAA Championship in five of the last six years. Hofstra finished 15th overall at the NCAA Wrestling Championship and William & Mary placed 15th nationally in men’s cross country. In baseball, the CAA had 23 players chosen in the 2008 Major League draft, which was the second-highest total in league history. Hofstra won its NCAA-record 11th-straight conference title in softball and reached the NCAA regional finals. Individually, the W&M women’s tennis duo of Megan Moulton-Levy and Katarina Zoricic reached the quarterfinals of the NCAA Doubles Championship in 2008 to earn All-America status for the second straight season, and Georgia State golfer Joel Sjoholm placed 13th overall at the NCAA Men’s Golf Championship. CAA member institutions are committed to excellence in the classroom. The Colonial Academic Alliance was created in 2002 by the league’s presidents with a goal of expanding their partnership to all aspects of university life outside of intercollegiate athletics. Among the programs already established are an undergraduate research conference, coordination of study abroad programs and granting visiting academic status to student-athletes traveling to an away contest so that they have access to libraries, academic resource centers and computer labs. In 2002, two faculty members from CAA institutions were awarded academia’s most coveted distinction – the Nobel Prize. John B. Fenn, a research professor in the Department of Chemistry at Virginia Commonwealth University, received the Nobel Prize for chemistry, and Vernon Smith, a professor of economics and law at George Mason University, shared the Nobel Prize in economic sciences. Commissioner Thomas E. Yeager has guided the CAA since its inception. The conference traces its roots back to 1983 when three of its current members- George Mason University, James Madison University and the College of William and Mary - were aligned with East Carolina University, the United States Naval Academy and the University of Richmond as a basketball league (ECAC South). During the next two years, the league added 11 sports, acquired two new members (the University of North Carolina Wilmington and American University) and decided to form a new association. The transformation from ECAC South to CAA took place on June 6, 1985. Charter members George Mason, James Madison, UNC Wilmington and William and Mary were joined by Old Dominion University in 1991 and by Virginia Commonwealth University in 1995. The conference added the University of Delaware, Drexel University, Hofstra University and Towson University in 2001. Georgia State University and Northeastern University became members of the conference on July 1, 2005. From all-star athletes to Nobel Prize winning faculty, the CAA takes great pride in producing performers who stand out both on the playing field and in the classroom. 2008 Final Results/Statistics 2009 UNCW Softball 2008 Final Results 2/19 2/19 2/23 2/23 2/24 2/24 2/29 2/29 3/1 3/1 3/2 3/5 3/5 3/8 3/8 3/11 3/11 3/14 3/17 3/15 3/17 3/22 3/22 3/23 3/25 3/26 3/29 3/29 3/30 4/5 4/5 4/6 4/9 4/9 4/12 4/12 4/13 4/19 4/19 4/20 4/26 4/26 4/27 5/3 5/3 5/4 at Campbell L, 7-3 at Campbell L, 15-3 LEHIGH$ L, 7-1 MT.

CHAMPS/Life Skills Meets Student-Athlete Needs To prepare student-athletes for the challenges of life beyond the playing field, UNCW and the NCAA team up in the popular CHAMPS/Life Skills Program.

The CHAMPS/Life Skills Program is designed to provide student-athletes with the education and the experiences to assist them in bridging the gap between college life and professional life in the work world and to make meaningful contributions to their communities. The CHAMPS/Life Skills Program focuses on five commitment areas viewed as critical to personal growth: (1) Academic Excellence - to support the academic progress of the student-athlete toward intellectual development and graduation. (2) Athletic Excellence - to build philosophical foundations for the development of athletic programs that are broad-based, equitable and dedicated to the well-being of the student-athlete. (3) Personal Development - to support the development of a well-balanced lifestyle for the student-athlete, encouraging emotional well-being, personal growth and decision-making skills. (4) Career Development - to encourage each student-athlete to develop and pursue their career and life goals. (5) Service - to engage the student-athlete in service to his or her campus and surrounding communities. The NCAA has worked with its member institutions and educational consultants to create instructional materials and program models to address the needs of today’s student-athletes. Topics such as diversity education, developing sexual responsibility, nutrition, eating disorder prevention and awareness, time management, community service and career development are just some of the areas covered within the curriculum. A freshman seminar course is designed to assist student-athletes in making the transition to college, this seminar focuses on college-level study skills, time management, awareness of available university services, etc. It is open only to entering freshmen and generates two hours of elective credit toward graduation. 22 • www.UNCWsports.com 2007-08 Academic Highlights ►For the fifth consecutive year, the women’s cross country team was designated as a United States Track and Field and Cross Country Coaches Association Academic All-American Team. ►UNCW’s 327 student-athletes recorded their highest grade point average in a semester and their highest cumulative grade point average ever during the fall 2007 semester.

Wilmington has a historic legacy that begins before the Revolutionary War and runss through its stance as the last Atlantic port open to blockade runners during the Civil War.. e Today, the continuous restoration and preservation in the historic district is a tribute to the city’s proud heritage. Historic Wilmington affords visitors the unique opportunity to enjoy a bustling seaportt rich in shopping, dining, culture and the arts, while being only minutes away from barrierr islands, broad beaches and the intracoastal waterway. The 200-block Historic District highlighting the downtown area opens into a scenicc riverfront park that overlooks the USS North Carolina Battleship Memorial. A beautifully restored battleship, the USS North Carolina was considered the greatestt sea weapon in the world when commissioned in 1941. During World War II, “The Show-boat” earned 15 battlestars and participated in every major naval offensive in the Pacific from Guadalcanal to Okinawa. A memorial since 1961, the battleship is dedicated to the men and women of all U.S. military services who defended our country during WWII. One of Wilmington’s most unique features is the city’s status as the leading entertainment production center in the Southeast. The city’s evolution into “Hollywood East” began when Dino DeLaurentis shot Stephen King’s Firestarter in 1984. One year later, Dino DeLaurentis constructed a studio facility in the Port City and the complex, now owned by EUE/Screen Gems, is the largest production studio east of Hollywood, offering nine sound stages on a 32-acre site near the Wilmington International Airport. Numerous movies, television series and commericals have been filmed in Wilmington. The popular show, “Dawson’s Creek,” was produced in Wilmington and shot frequently on the UNCW campus as well as Warner Bros. hit, “One Tree Hill.” A film-friendly community, Wilmington residents have embraced the industry, often appearing as “extras” in movies. It’s not uncommon for celebrities the likes of Sandra Bullock, Nick Nolte, Julia Roberts, Tom Cruise and Dennis Hopper to be seen dining at a restaurant, shopping at the mall or just simply walking along the shore. Wrightsville Beach, just minutes away from Wilmington’s downtown area, is a year-round island resort. Wide, uncrowded beaches, full service marinas and a variety of accommodations are complemented by excellent seafood restaurants, specialty shops and exciting nightlife. 2009 UNCW Softball Impossible Is Nothing 24 • www.UNCWsports.com
