The Great Danes are once again looking to top the America East and maintain a national ranking. UAlbany field hockey hosted two successful scrimmages in the last week, downing Syracuse 3-2 and Northeastern 4-2. Phil Sykes’s squad was picked to win the America East for the second straight season. The Purple & Gold was selected unanimously to top the league after reaching the conference final in 2013. 2013 SEASON: In 2013 UAlbany took a spot in the America East Championship before falling to New Hampshire in Durham. The Great Danes competed for the league title for the sixth time in seven seasons. Team Highlights: •UAlbany earned an NFHCA national ranking for 16 straight weeks in 2013, including a program-best No. 11 from the week of Sept. 16-Sept. 30. •The Great Danes posted top-5 rankings in national statistical categories throughout the season, including scoring average, goals against average, scoring margin and points per game. •The Purple & Gold earned the NFHCA National Academic Team Award for the second-straight year, posting a fall semester GPA of 3.16. •The 2013 Great Danes won nine-straight games to open the season. •UAlbany’s 2013 squad set program records in goals (85), assists (65) and points (235). Individual Highlights: •Corrine McConville became the second Great Dane to earn Division I All-America Honors twice in her career when she was named to the NFHCA All-America Third Team. The only other UAlbany player to achieve the honor is current assistant coach Michelle Simpson. •Paula Heuser also garnered All-America accolades on the Second Team. She was named the ECAC Rookie of the Year, as well as the America East Rookie of the Year and Midfielder of the Year. •Daphne Voormolen was named the America East Field Hockey Scholar Athlete of the Year as well as Offensive Player of the Year. The senior forward graduated as the program’s Division I leader in career points (117) and goals (48). She also scored and all-time single-game high five goals against Sacred Heart. •Maxi Primus posted the top goals against average in the nation for the first four weeks of the season. The freshman goalkeeper earned America East All-Rookie and Second Team honors. RETURNING FOR 2014: The Great Danes led the America East in every offensive category last season, and will likely be among the league’s leaders again this season. All-American midfielder Paula Heuser is the team’s most prominent offensive returner, topping the league with 45 points. She became the program’s single-season Division I leader in points and goals in her rookie season. Phil Sykes also welcomes back three of his top-four players in the assist column from last season, including Heuser. The Great Danes also retain All-Region pick and penalty corner specialist Fiori Van Rijswijk (10 assists) and 2012 America East Rookie of the Year Laura Page (9 assists). Page joins the Great Danes in 2014 after representing her native Scotland over the summer. On the defensive end, the Great Danes return America East All-Conference Second Team defenders Jordyn Homyak and Jaclyn Hibbs. The pair looks to fill the void left by center defender Corrine McConville. Maxi Primus is also back for her sophomore campaign in the cage. Phil Sykes has a familiar supporting cast on the forward and midfield line this season. Kelly Bonner, Echo Bretz, Molly Mariano, Liza Morgan and Emily White will provide depth on the front line, while captain Amy Nicklin leads an experienced midfield core. Local products Anna Bottino and Kelsey Briddell will likely make an immediate impact for UAlbany, after impressive showings at the team’s two preseason exhibitions.

Benson, 45, became the University’s second AD since the program entered Division I sports 15 years ago. As director, Benson, who previously was the senior associate athletic director at Old Dominion University, provides leadership for UAlbany’s NCAA Division I, 19-sport intercollegiate athletics program and its scholar student athletes. Following a nationwide search, Benson took the reins of the University’s diverse athletics programs from outgoing AD Dr. Lee McElroy, who announced his retirement in June of 2014. “It is important for UAlbany to engage an athletics leader who has a demonstrated background for combining success in sports with high academic achievement. Mark Benson is well qualified to head a program that values the integrity of the collegiate athletics experience,” said University at Albany President Robert J. Jones. “We have an outstanding athletics program with many benefits and a great legacy on which to build. The University community extends a warm welcome to Mark and his family.” Benson also served as the assistant vice president for Athletic Development at Old Dominion, and has served in this capacity since August 2006, and was an adjunct professor in the Sports Management Program. During his time at Old Dominion, Benson was responsible for budget preparation and administration, as well as providing sport supervision for men’s and women’s sailing. During Benson’s tenure at Old Dominion, the Athletic Endowment grew more than $16 million and the Old Dominion Athletic Foundation annual fund grew from $400,000 to $4.1 million. Benson was responsible for soliciting seven $1 million plus gifts to athletics, as well as numerous significant commitments from donors. Prior to his time at Old Dominion, Benson worked at Coca-Cola Enterprises, Inc. as an Educational Channel manager. In his role with Coca-Cola, he managed the Educational Channel for the Commonwealth Division, which covers sales centers from eastern Delaware to eastern North Carolina. Benson developed financial and marketing proposals as well as negotiated beverage contracts with colleges and universities within his division. Benson and his wife Hunter are the parents of three daughters, Vandy Grace, Lydon and Hannum. He is a graduate of North Carolina State University. “I am excited to join the University at Albany athletics program at this stage in its growth and potential,” Benson said upon his hiring. “My family and I feel warmly welcomed by the UAlbany community, and I can’t wait to settle in and get to work.” “I’m pleased to welcome Mark to the University at Albany and the America East Conference,” said AE Commissioner Amy Huchthausen. “UAlbany has a robust athletics program and he takes the AD title at perfect time to build from a position of strength, both within the conference and nationally. I look forward to working with him as he moves the program forward.” “Mark was instrumental in orchestrating ODU’s meteoric rise to FBS football in just five seasons, while helping us sell out every home game we played,” said Old Dominion AD Wood Selig. “While ODU will greatly miss his substantial contributions and leadership, we are thrilled he will realize his professional goal of becoming a DI athletic director at a high profile academic institution. UAlbany is getting a rising star in the college athletic industry in Mark Benson.” “Mark Benson’s leadership will guide the growth of athletics at UAlbany,” said CAA Commissioner Tom Yeager. “We know he’ll apply his commitment and vision to the student-athletes, academics, and the university.” The University at Albany led an NCAA Division III program from 1972 to 1995, moved to Division II for four years and entered Division I competition in 1999. UAlbany sports has eight men’s and 11 women’s teams competing at the Division I intercollegiate level.

Boosters are prohibited from engaging in the following: •Any contact with a PSA at any time whether in person, by mail or by telephone. •Any contact with a PSA’s coach, principal or counselor to gain information that would assist in evaluating the PSA either athletically or academically, including visiting the PSA’s educational institution to pick up film or transcripts. •Any involvement, directly or indirectly, in making arrangements for or giving any financial aid or other benefits to a prospect or his/her family, relatives or friends (such as gifts, awards, loans, employment, transportation, free or reduced rent or housing, etc.). •Providing entertainment during the prospect’s official visit. •Sending anything to a prospect including letters, cards, newspaper clippings, game programs, post cards, e-mails, etc. (the type of materials that may be sent and who may distribute such materials is strictly regulated by the NCAA); •Any contact with enrolled student-athletes at other four-year colleges or universities for the purpose of exploring their interest in transferring to UAlbany. If a student-athlete enrolled at another institution contacts you, do not discuss the possibility of transferring with the athlete. Immediately tell the student-athlete to contact the UAlbany Athletic Department. The following examples of limited contact are permissible: •Contacts made with a PSA who is an established family friend, relative or neighbor so long as the contact is not arranged by a UAlbany staff member and is not made for recruiting purposes; •An unavoidable, incidental contact with a prospect provided recruiting does not take place, only normal courtesy is involved and the contact is not pre-arranged. •Casual contacts at UAlbany athletic events, if incidental: •Contacts about summer employment only after the prospect has signed a National Letter of Intent or, in the case of a junior college prospect, only after the prospect has graduated or officially left the junior college. •Contact involved in a normal working relationship (i.e., booster who is a doctor or dentist who treats a prospect professionally) provided no recruiting is involved. •Viewing a prospect’s game at your own initiative (must not involve contact with the prospect). Contact with Prospective Student Athletes All in-person, on- and off-campus recruiting contacts with a PSA or the PSA’s relatives or legal guardian(s) shall be made only by autho- If you have any questions or concerns, on this subject or any other NCAA matter, please contact the UAlbany Athletic Compliance Office.
