22 COACHING STAFF

There is no mistaking that the UMBC Retrievers’ men’s basketball team is a re-flection of its head coach. Easygoing, affable and caring outside the lines, theRetriever mentor is passionate and focused while on the hardwood.

Many times throughout his playing and coaching career, Randy Monroe was told hecouldn’t do something. Retriever fans are very thankful that he continues to provethat the critics don’t appreciate what someone with his determination and visioncan accomplish.

In March 2008, Coach Monroe brought UMBC basketball and the university toheights it could only imagine previously. He molded a high-character group of vet-erans, transfers and younger players into the best team in the history of Retrieverbasketball. The Retrievers won a school-record 24 games, captured the AmericaEast Conference regular-season and tournament titles and competed in the school’sfirst NCAA Division I NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament.

The Philadelphia native was named 2008 America East Conference Coach of theYear and was also one of 10 finalists across the nation for the Hugh Durham Awardas the National Coach of the Year, which went to former Drake bench boss KenoDavis. Monroe was rewarded with a six-year contract extension through the 2013-14 season. The impact of the program’s success was felt inside and outside HilltopCircle, as the entire UMBC and surrounding communities, alumni and countless othersupporters rejoiced and celebrated with the Retrievers.

“I am ecstatic about this opportunity that Dr. Brown, Dr. Johnson and Dr. Hrabowskihave given me,” Monroe said. “I feel very fortunate and truly appreciate what thegroup of young men we’ve had in our program have been able to accomplish.”

“Randy Monroe has been with us for a long time as an assistant coach and the lastfour years as a head coach,” Dr. Brown said. “By all accounts, he has done an out-standing job and is deserving of this contract extension. He has delivered in a bigway and captured the spirit and enthusiasm of the campus to an extent we havenever seen before. We hope to continue this momentum and expand upon our cur-rent success.”

In 2008-09, Randy Monroe, age 46, enters his fifth season as bench boss at UMBCand begins his 15th year as part of the men’s basketball program. He is now 57-66 in four seasons at UMBC. The trip to the NCAA Tournament was his fourth as acoach, as La Salle earned three bids during Monroe’s tenure as an assistant underSpeedy Morris from 1988-93.

Monroe was promoted to head men's basketball coach at UMBC on March 23,2004, after serving as acting head coach since March 2. He coached the Retrieversin their 65-59 first-round loss to Stony Brook in the America East Conference Tour-nament. Tom Sullivan resigned as head basketball coach on March 11, 2004 InMonroe’s first full season as a head coach, the Retrievers de-

feated local ri-vals Navy,Towson and

Loyola, rallyingfrom late second-

half deficits in winsover the Midshipmenand Greyhounds.

UMBC capped its non-league slate with a stun-

ning road win at Delaware,handing the Blue Hens a rare

home loss. After UMBC closed theregular season with a win over Hart-

ford, Coach Monroe guided the squad toits first-ever America East Tournament win,a 78-73 triumph over New Hampshire,before the season ended less than 24hours later in a setback to Vermont. In

2005-06, UMBC was a difficult team toplay against. The Retrievers recorded winsover Colonial Athletic Association members

Delaware and William & Mary andthrew a scare into Virginia in non-con-ference play. In America East action,UMBC earned first-time league winsover Boston University and defendingchampion Vermont and knocked offsecond-place Binghamton. The Retriev-ers won an America East Tournamentgame against Stony Brook beforeending the season with a quarterfinalloss to eventual league champion Al-bany.

In 2007-08, UMBC continued its climb, first posting a road win atAtlantic 10 member LaSalle, then finishing in the top half of theAmerica East Conference (T-4th) for the first time ever. The Retriev-ers made their first appearance in the league semifinals beforefalling in an inspired effort against Vermont. All of those building

blocks set the stage for themadness of 2008-09.

Monroe had been an as-sistant coach at UMBC

since the 1994-95 season,a span of 10 years. He

was hired by EarlHawkins and re-tained when CoachSullivan took overthe following sea-son. "This is atremendous op-portunity; anopportunity mostassistant coacheslive for," Monroe

said upon his hiring."I have been an assis-tant coach for 20years, and perhapssome people in thatposition would havebeen upset not to getan opportunity ear-lier. The way I lookat it, I gained atremendous amountof experience andlearned so muchabout the develop-ment of young peo-

ple throughout the years. I believe that experience will serve mewell as a head basketball coach.” In 2003, many people aroundthe country learned what East Coast basketball fans have knownfor a long time when the affable native of Philadelphia was oneof 27 Division I coaches (all sports) nationally to receive AFLACNational Assistant Coach of the Year honors. The winners were se-lected from a field of more than 350,000 coaches across the na-tion. The criteria in the second annual AFLAC National AssistantCoach of the Year program allowed for coaches to win based onlongevity, expertise, contributions to the school and community andspecial achievements throughout their careers.

Monroe had previously served as assistant coach at VanderbiltUniversity (1993-94), La Salle University (1988-1993) and hisalma mater, Cheyney University (1985-87). During his tenure at Vanderbilt, the Com-modores finished the 1993-94 season at 20-12 and were 1994 National InvitationalTournament finalists. While at La Salle, the Explorers compiled a record of 119-39,won three Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference titles and gained three NCAA Tournamentberths and one NIT bid. Cheyney averaged 24 wins per season in Monroe's two cam-paigns there, and in 1986, was the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference Champions,the Eastern Regional Champions and participants in the NCAA Division II Final Four inSpringfield, Mass. In 1987-88, he assisted Dave "Lefty" Ervin at the William PennCharter School, where the Quakers tied for the league title with a 20-10 record.

Monroe had an excellent playing career at Philadelphia University and Cheyney Uni-versity. In 1982, he was named one of the top freshmen on the East Coast by EasternBasketball Magazine. He earned his bachelor of science degree (Magna Cum Laude)in recreation administration from Cheyney in 1987. Monroe was inducted into theCheyney University Athletic Hall of Fame in 2005.

The UMBC basketball program has also experienced great success in the classroomduring Monroe’s tenure. In 2004-05, the program received “top honors” in the NCAA’sAcademic Progress Report, and it currently ranks in the 70th-80th percentile amongthe 337 Division I programs in the nation. Brian Hodges became the first graduate stu-dent to compete at UMBC during the Division I era after earning his undergraduatedegree in three years.

“I am most proud of the young men that have come into this program and have learnedhow to prepare for life after UMBC,” Monroe said. “We have had stellar leadershipduring my time and those players have shared their knowledge and experiences withthe younger players. It was so gratifying to have so many of them come back andthank us for putting the program on the map. I would like to thank them.”

"I played for Coach Monroe for all four of my years at UMBC. I learned manythings about the game of basketball and also many things about life. He was al-ways there if you needed anything and he was always there to make sure youwere doing the right thing. If I could use one word to describe Coach Monroe, itwould be passion. In my four years at UMBC, he always gave 110 percent ineverything he did. His passion and energy would make me want to work harderevery day. Coach Monroe has brought UMBC Basketball to another level, and Iam very proud to tell people that I am an alumnus of UMBC."- Andrew Feeley ( 2001-05)

“Coach Monroe taught me a tremendous amount about the game of basketball.However, even more importantly I learned countless invaluable lifelong lessonsfrom him. Coach is a winner both on and off the court.”- Jason Burik (1996-98)

“Through my college years Coach Monroe was more than an inspiration to me.When I was down, he always kept my head above water, and when I was up, healways kept me humble and made me recognize my blessings and give back tothe less fortunate. Most of my family stayed in New York, so when I was in Bal-timore there were only a few people I went to for guidance, some needed moti-vation and a laugh or two. Coach Monroe is one of the best men that I know, he'sa a great coach, and he teaches his players with passion and fire, which bringsout the best in them.”- Kareem Washington (1999-04)

progress of athletes in the program.

Stewart served as an assistant coach at Radford University for the 2005-06 season, his first full-time experience at the Division I level. He servedas a graduate assistant coach at Marshall University from 2003-05, whileearning his master’s degree in athletic administration.

Thomasaveraged almost 12 points and 8 rebounds per game en route to beingnamed to the All-MEAC Second Team.

Before coming to Howard, Thomas played for three seasons at the Univer-sity of Colorado. His tenure with the Buffaloes was highlighted in the 1998-99 season, when he was named to the All-Tournament team of the PuertoRico Shootout. He was a member of a pair of CU teams which earnedberths to the National Invitational Tournament, and he was selected to theCommissioner’s Big 12 All-Academic Team.

66 SEASON OUTLOOK

UMBC head men’s basketball coach Randy Monroe is very fondof classic movies. So, it was no surprise that his theme for the2008-09 men’s basketball season came from the Sidney

Poitier/Bill Cosby remake of the 1950’s classic movie, Let’s Do ItAgain.

What the Retrievers would be trying to repeat is simply the best sea-son in the school’s 42-year men’s basketball history. UMBC won aschool-record 24 games, captured the America East regular-seasonand tournament titles and made the university’s first appearance inthe NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Championship. In addition, the2007-08 team set numerous single-season records, most notablyscoring the most points in program history, and the squad was thenation’s leader in assist-to-turnover ratio.

Recent history says that UMBC has a chance. Albany (2006, 2007)and Vermont (2003, 2004, 2005) both repeated as champions thisdecade.

“Coming back from Raleigh, I was already thinking about what weneed to do to consistently remain successful,” Monroe said. “The re-turning players had a taste, and they feel good about trying to doit again. We are all looking forward to the opportunity.”

The good news for the swelling legion of Retriever fans is the returnof both of UMBC’s first-ever First-Team America East All-Conferenceplayers, senior point guard Jay Greene and senior forwardDarryl Proctor. The experts are not questioning the pro-duction, tenacity and leadership of that duo and emer-gence of junior wing Matt Spadafora. The concerns beginand end with the loss of a trio of players – Ray Barbosa,Brian Hodges and Cavell Johnson – that produced nearly60 percent of the Retrievers’offense from the cham-pionship season.

“You don’t replace those guys and I don’t wantmy guys thinking they have to,” Monroe said.“This group has to create their own identity.They must understand that the 2008-09 teamis their team. It’s a new time and a new team.”

SUPER SENIORS

Jay Greene and Darryl Proctor have a lot in common.They are certainly both undersized at their respectivepositions in the Division I basketball arena. Both haveconstantly been told that they couldn’t succeed at thehighest level of collegiate basketball. Most importantly,they are perfect examples of Coach Monroe’s philoso-phy of “not allowing others’ perceptions of you to be-come your reality.”

The Retriever mentor feels that the dynamic duo canraise their game even another notch in their final go-around. “I look for them to provide more scoring be-cause they are capable of it. They are both intelligentenough to know what we need. I trust them to make sounddecisions. They are first-team all-conference players because theyare capable of doing special things on the floor.”

Lost in the glory of last season was the disappointment ofsenior forward Uwem Eshietedoho. After working dili-

gently to rehabilitate a leg injury which he suffered in the spring of2007, his playing season lasted just five games, as he broke his rightleg in a game at West Virginia. His latest rehab has been curtailedby setbacks, but the Florida native refuses to give in and will try todisplay his high-energy style of play in his final season.

POINT GUARDS AND WINGS

Jay Greene (8.8 ppg, 7.2 apg) had two very solid seasons for theRetrievers, but dramatically elevated all aspects of his game lastseason. The numbers tell much of the story, but his teammates andcoaches continually relate the rest—that Greene’s selfless play andleadership was a prime factor in the team’s success. The 2007 CousyAward nominee was the only player in the country to be ranked inthe top five in the nation in assists per game (7.2) and assist-to-turnover ratio (3.47). He also became more efficient in shooting thebasketball, elevating his 3-point field goal percentage by nearlynine percent to .414, fourth in America East. In short order, the 5-8dynamo will become UMBC’s all-time assists leader and is on paceto add 1,000 career points to his resume.

If league coaches could have voted for a most improved player inthe conference last year, 6-5 junior Matt Spadafora (5.9 ppg, 3.0rpg) would have gotten a great deal of consideration. He was put-ting together a solid campaign, but he really stepped up whensharpshooter Brian Hodges was sidelined by injury in February.Spadafora started the final 12 contests and averaged 10 points

per game in the America East Championships. The Philadelphia-area native is a tireless defender who was tabbed along withGreene and Proctor as tri-captains for the upcoming season.

Frank McKnight is hoping to replicate Spadafora’s 2007-08 ascent in his own sophomore campaign. He got ataste of the action, competing in 19 games last season,but he has shown tremendous dedication to improving

his conditioning and shooting in the off-season. The 6-1 southpaw will work

almost exclusively at the off-guardposition as the coaching staff looksfor more options from behind the

three-point arc.

To say the least, 6-3 sophomore newcomer BakariSmith is anxious to get his UMBC career underway. Hedid not compete at the junior college level in 2007-08,so he would have three years of eligibility for the Re-trievers. Coach Monroe describes Smith as a “cerebralplayer who really breaks the game down.” He has mul-

tiple guard skills, and although he will primarily contributeat a wing slot, he could serve as Greene’s back-up at thepoint position.

Sophomore Rodney Adkins earned a slot on the team as awalk-on last season and the 6-0 Connecticut native will

also try to earn minutes at the point guard slot. Red-shirt freshman Marcos Tamares is developing hisperimeter skills after a full season of practicing withthe Retrievers. Like McKnight, the 6-6 New York na-tive has reported in much better physical condition

this season.

Freshman Chauncey Gilliam has an opportunity

Jay Greene

to make an impact in his first campaign at the collegiate level. Heprepped at one of the nation’s top schools, Brewster (N.H.) Academy,last year and captained the Leap (N.J.) Academy teams the previoustwo seasons. Coach Monroe describes the 6-4, 215-pound southpawas “a tenacious athlete, who likes to mix it up in the trenches. Like Proc-tor, he doesn’t have a true position, but seems to find a way to getthings done.”

Former Carroll County (Md.) Player of the Year Brett Burrier will earna slot on the team as a walk-on. The 6-6 wing is an outstanding dis-tance shooter who prepped at Mercersburg (Pa.) Academy last sea-son.

THE FRONTCOURT

There were approximately 4,500 student-athletes that competedin NCAA Division I men’s basketball last season. Darryl Proctor(15.1 ppg, 8.4 rpg) was ranked amongst the top 100 in threedistinctly different categories—shooting percentage, re-bounding and steals. He stands barely 6-4 but managed torecord 13 double-doubles last season. His offensive arsenalis varied, ranging from quick post moves to a highly effective fade-away jumper. Just days after UMBC’s season ended in March, thepower forward was already thinking about his senior season and hasshed about 20 pounds from his 2007-08 playing weight.

Still recovering from last season’s leg injury, 6-8senior Uwem Eshietedoho will attempt to con-tribute on the court as much as possible in hisfinal campaign.

The emergence of Justin Fry (3.9 ppg, 2.6rpg) will be critical for UMBC’s suc-cess this season. The lean, 6-9 junior

was a contributor last season buttook a back seat to Cavell John-

son from a production stand-point. Fry has all the tools to

be effective at the high orlow posts and the gritti-ness to battle bulkieropponents in thepaint, but he musttake his excellent prac-

tice habits to the courton a more consistent

basis.

Sophomore Rich Flemming isexpected to play a key

role in the frontcourtthis season. The 6-7Fairfield transfer

played in 25games for theStags in

2006-07 andCoach Monroesees a big up-

side for thePennsylvania na-

tive.

“He is the best athlete on team. He runs and jumps extremely well,can rebound and can finish around the goal. If he practices with pas-sion and energy all the time, he could be a very good player for the

next three years,” Monroe said.

Like his classmate Gilliam, freshmanJake Wasco may also get some

looks early in his UMBCtenure. The 6-9 post

toughened andsha rpened

his skillsin thet o u g hP h i l a d e l p h i a

public schooland summerleagues. Hehas made dramatic

strides in his devel-opment, but playswith a calmnessthat belies his

youth and inex-perience.

Two transfers,5-9 guard Chris De La

Rosa (Siena) and6-11 post Rob-

bie Jackson(Marshall) willpractice with

the team thisseason. De La Rosa will have three years of eligibility remaining, whileJackson will have two.

Monroe does not expect to have to make a complete overhaul in thestyle of play which the Retrievers employed last season. “I like what Iam seeing from the new players. They are playing hard while tryingto learn. The other things will take care of themselves. We will continueto change defenses, look to run when we can, but also get into oursets. I don’t expect to change too much.”

It appears that UMBC will once again be cast as an underdog in theAmerica East race. Coach Monroe and his forces have relished thisrole in the past, tying for fourth after an eighth-place pre-season des-ignation in 2006-07 and capturing the crown after a fifth-place se-lection before last season.

“I really like this group. I have the utmost confidence in the leadershipof Jay, Darryl and Matt, and their leadership will spread throughoutthe team,” Monroe said. “Some people are counting us out, but thoseguys have a lot of pride and the new guys want to do well. I reallythink we’ll be there at the end.

“We can be very good in a different kind of way. If we enjoy theprocess, work hard and work smart, we can be very successful.”

RR ee ff ll ee cc tt ii oo nn ss .. .. ..To recap the 2007-08 UMBC men’s basketball season via a series of 33 game stories and boxscores just wouldn’t be enough. At a glance, many readers will look to par�cular games, recallingvarious plays and spectacular numbers put up by the Retrievers. But there were moments, emo-�ons, and turning points that can’t be seen in the AP-style accounts of the games that may shedsome addi�onal insight on the greatest season in UMBC men’s basketball history.

“I reflect back to this �me last year, with our retreat, as we gotthe chance to know one another. Looking back, a team has tobe together to be strong as a family in order to achieve any kindof success. Each individual bought into what we were selling interms of how we wanted to play and how we needed to sup-port each other through good and bad �mes. During the sea-son, we would constantly refer to things we had discussed [atthe retreat] and we were able to refocus, and I really think ithelped us get to where we all wanted to go.”

-Head Coach Randy Monroe

“Last year when we began our non-conference schedule and startedoff 5-1, I knew it was going to be a special year-especially when webeat three teams from the Atlan�c 10 Conference. One game that re-ally stands out was the game at Richmond that we won. With a fewminutes le�, the outcome did not look so good for us. We kept clawingour way back and making big plays to stay in the game. When it was�ed and Richmond was holding the ball for the last shot, I thought forsure it was going into over�me. With five seconds le�, Jay [Greene]made a great steal and threw it ahead to Cavell [Johnson] for a two-handed jam right before the buzzer to give us the win. We gu�ed outthat win, along with many other wins, and that was a true sign of achampionship team and a special year.”

-Ma� Spadafora

“I knew it was going to be a specialyear a�er a couple of buzzer-bea�ngwins and especially the big winagainst George Washington, which isa huge basketball program. I couldfeel we were going to raise many eye-brows for UMBC basketball.”

-Rodney Adkins

“We were dealt a cruel blow on January 30 when senior Brian Hodges suffered a fairlyserious ankle injury against Albany. Two days later, the team boarded the flight forManchester (en route to Burlington, Vt.) without one of its leaders. It is impossiblefor me to describe the first 10 minutes of that game at Vermont. Quite simply, a 5-foot-8 player took over the game. Jay Greene hit 27-foot 3-pointers, converted two“and-ones” inside and even blocked a shot by Vermont standout Mike Trimboli. S�ll,the Catamounts built an 11-point second-half lead. But, with the Vermont defensemore aware of Greene, senior guard Ray Barbosa took hold of the offense. He spear-headed the comeback that saw the Retrievers escape with a 75-73 win. A�er thegame, Jay was being interviewed in a hallway adjacent to the gym and several Cata-mount fans actually congratulated him on his effort. If I was skep�cal before aboutour team’s postseason aspira�ons, that display of heart by Jay and the rest of the Re-trievers made me a believer!”

- Associate Athle�c Director Steve Levy

“The trip to Binghamton (for the America East Championship) was amazing.The come-from-behind victory over Vermont, a perennial finalist, was signifi-cant and finally put us in the na�onal spotlight. I remember two things aboutthat game—Darryl Proctor’s big-�me defense against league MVP MarqusBlakely and the fan support from the UMBC students who travelled four-and-a-half hours, stayed for two days and rocked the Binghamton Events Center, ex-hor�ng our team on to victory.

-Athle�cs Director Dr. Charles Brown

“There were a few different moments from last season that reallystand out in my mind. The first is how the team took everythingin stride and how nothing seemed to faze the kids. I rememberwaking up on the morning of the championship game and going tothe hotel restaurant for breakfast. The kids came in and I was ex-pec�ng to see very nervous guys who had not slept a lot. How-ever, every single guy came in and complained that we woke themup too early; they wanted us to let them sleep later. Once I heardthem all complaining I knew we were ourselves and I felt pre�ycomfortable about the game that day. Nothing fazed these guys;even with a trip to the NCAA Tournament on the line, they werecalm, cool and relaxed.”

-Assistant Coach Nate Stewart

“The moment that stands out most iswhen [Athle�cs Director] Charlie Browncame to get me in the stands a few min-utes before the end of the conferencechampionship game against Har�ord andtold me to be prepared to go onto thefloor to celebrate. All of a sudden, every-thing seemed to be moving in slow mo�onas students, faculty, staff and alumniwatched me go down to the floor as thegame was ending, and people knew wehad won. It was an exhilara�ng and seem-ingly surreal experience. Coach Monroeand our team had made history for all ofus, and we were at our best as a commu-nity at that moment – happy for the teamand the coach, happy for the university,happy for Bal�more, happy for ourselves.It was a moment filled with applause,tears, laughter, hugs and people jumpingup and down – all at the same �me.”-UMBC President Dr. Freeman Hrabowski

“From Selec�on Sunday to the whole trip to Raleigh and, ofcourse, playing in the (NCAA Tournament) game was all avery special part of last season. However, without a doubt,the most memorable moment was playing in front of a sold-out crowd in the RAC for the conference championship. Theatmosphere, the outcome and everything about that daywas amazing and is something I will never forget.”

“I was taken out of the game in the final minute of the championship gameand realized that a dream really came true. Ever since I was a li�le kid, Iimagined playing in the NCAA Tournament and was determined that oneday I would be a part of it. UMBC gave me that opportunity to be a part ofsomething special, and I believed that goal was realis�c with all of the hardwork and dedica�on my teammates and coaches showed. The chemistrywe had on and off the court was something many teams never get to expe-rience. All being good friends, we had a common goal and work ethic thatmade everything possible.”

-Jay Greene

“It was awesome to have so many fans drive down from school to supportour team. Watching the Davidson vs. Gonzaga game courtside before ourgame, and playing in the biggest sports tournament of the year was some-thing I will never forget.”

-Frank McKnight

UMBC tried to get the momentumback as Johnson dunked a Jay Greene feed witheight second remaining in the half. But Georgetown’sChris Wright hit a fade-away 3-pointer from the cor-ner as the horn sounded to end the first 20 minuteswith the Hoyas on top, 34-22.

The Retrievers fell behind by 19 points at 48-29, but,sparked by a pair of 3-point field goals by Greene,put together an 8-2 flurry to get the deficit down to13 points at 50-37 with 9:39 remaining. But sopho-more wing Matt Spadafora missed the front end ofa one-and-one opportunity with the chance to cut thelead to 11, and the Hoyas countered with a 10-2surge to put the contest out of reach.

4466 THE AMERICA EAST CONFERENCE

Since its modest beginning as a men’s basketball-onlyconference in 1979, America East has evolved intoone of the most comprehensive NCAA Division I con-

ferences with a commitment to broad-based, competi-tive athletics programs, complementing the academicintegrity and missions of the member institutions.

Each of the nine institutions - University at Albany, Bing-hamton University, Boston University, University of Hart-ford, University of Maine, University of MarylandBaltimore County (UMBC), University of New Hampshire,Stony Brook University, and University of Vermont - of-fers a unique blend of academic and athletic tradition.

Progressive in its approach to its more than 3,200 stu-dent-athletes, America East recognizes champions ineach of its 21 sports. America East also conducts thenation’s most comprehensive academic recognition pro-gram for student-athletes.

With a geographic footprint covering the Mid-Atlanticto Northeast regions of the United States, America Easthas a population base of more than 50 million peopleand nearly 30 million television homes. America Eastmember institutions include more than 106,000 studentson the nine campuses and boast nearly one million livingalumni.

LEAGUE HISTORY…To see how far America East has progressed, considerthe conference was established in 1979 as the ECACNorth. The conference at that time consisted of 10 insti-tutions and sponsored league competition only in men’sbasketball, with the champion receiving an automaticbid to the NCAA Championship.

Men’s basketball remained the lone league sport untilthe 1988-89 academic year. At that time, the confer-ence’s Board of Directors made a new commitment to anall-sports association, creating the North Atlantic Con-ference by establishing an office, hiring a full-time com-missioner, and embarking on a building program.

The North Atlantic Conference merged with theSeaboard Conference (the league in which Boston Uni-versity, Hartford, Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont,among others, competed in women's basketball) in1989 and the NAC looked to establish conferencechampionships in several men’s and women’s sports.

The conference changed its name to America East priorto the 1996-97 academic year and moved the confer-ence headquarters to its downtown Boston in 1997.

In 2005, America East hired Patrick Nero, most recentlythe Director of Athletics at Maine, as the conference’sthird commissioner.

The conference office moved its headquarters to Cam-bridge, Mass. in July, 2007.

ATHLETIC SUCCESS…America East enters its 21st year of all-sports champi-onship competition on the heels of one of the most suc-cessful seasons in history as five of its 10 team sportchampions won at least one game in the NCAA Cham-pionship and two other teams received at-large tour-nament bids. In addition, one student-athlete won anational championship and 20 others garnered All-America recognition.

America East sent multiple teams to the NCAA Women’sLacrosse Championship for the first time since 2000 asleague champion Boston University and runner-up NewHampshire each received bids.

Hartford defeated Syracuse in the first round of theNCAA Women’s Basketball Championship. It marked thesecond time in three years the Hawks had won a gamein the NCAA Tournament.

America East is only one of four Non-Football Bowl Sub-division Conferences to have received multiple postsea-son bids in each of the past four years.

Vermont and Boston University each earned berths inthe NCAA Men’s Soccer Championship. It marked thefirst time since 1996 that America East received multiplebids. Vermont downed Dartmouth in the first round togive America East at least one win in the NCAAs in sixof the last seven years. America East finished the seasonninth out of 22 Division I conferences in the Ratings Per-centage Index (RPI).

UMBC won its first-ever America East Men’s BasketballChampionship and recorded a program-best 24 victo-ries.

UMBC overcame a nine-goal deficit to upend Albany,14-13, in the finals of the America East Men’s LacrosseChampionship. The Retrievers, which won a school-record 12 games, were edged by national semifinalistVirginia, 10-9, in the first round of the NCAA Champi-onship. UMBC finished the season ranked No. 6 in theUSILA poll. Albany and Stony Brook were also rankedat one point during the season. Five America East stand-outs were chosen All-Americans by the USILA withUMBC’s Terry Kimener receiving second-team recogni-tion.

Boston University defeated New Hampshire, 2-1, toclaim its second America East Women’s Soccer title inthree years and its third straight NCAA berth. The Ter-riers advanced to the quarterfinal round of the NCAAField Hockey Championship with a 1-0 win over Iowa inthe first round

Albany defeated Cleveland State, 3-0, in the NCAAWomen’s Volleyball Championship to become the firstAmerica East team to win a match in the tournament..Binghamton’s Rory Quiller became the second nationalchampion in America East history when he won the polevault at the NCAA Indoor Track & Field Championshipwith a height of 18-0 1/2.

Stony Brook competed at the NCAA Women’s CrossCountry Championship for the first time after placingsecond at the NCAA Northeast Regional.

ACADEMIC SUCCESS…America East institutions boasted a pair of AcademicAll-Americans in 2007-08 while another 19 weretabbed All-District selections.

A total of 18 America East teams received PublicRecognition Awards by the NCAA under the Division IAcademic Progress Rate (APR). The APR provides areal-time snapshot of a team’s academic success andthe academic progress of student-athletes.

More than 2,250 of America East’s 3,200 student-ath-letes were named to the Academic Honor Roll after re-ceiving grade-point averages of 3.0 or better. Includedin that total were 1,015 student-athletes who earned a3.5 or better and were named to the Commissioner’sHonor Roll.

Overall, America East student-athletes compiled a 3.02GPA during the 2007-08 academic year.

The conference award an-nually recognizes the highest scoring athletic program inAmerica East as determined by a points system, whichrewards a school for success both during the regularseason and at championship competition in the league'ssports.

Dr. Charles BrownDIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS

UMBC Director of Athletics Dr. Charles Brown has signed a three-year contract extension, which will run through the 2010-11 academic year. The Brooklyn,N.Y., native will begin his 20th year at UMBC this September and is the longest-tenured AD in the state of Maryland. He has transformed UMBC Athletics from astruggling Division-I program to one which has fared quite well regionally and nationally for the past decade.

UMBC President Dr. Freeman Hrabwoski said, "From NCAA tournament appearances to national academic awards, UMBC's student-athletes excel on the play-ing field and in the classroom. We are delighted that Dr. Brown will continue building UMBC's athletic programs, which are such an exciting part of our campuscommunity."

Dr. Brown has championed UMBC Athletics' enhanced profile by positioning the Retrievers within appropriate levels of competition. One of his first tasks was to move UMBC into a Di-vision-I conference, which he completed in 1988-89, his first year with the university, as the Retrievers joined the East Coast Conference. UMBC won the league's President's Cup in its secondconference season, but the league folded shortly thereafter. Dr. Brown was able to move UMBC into the Big South Conference the following year (1992) and successfully positioned UMBCinto a much better geographic fit when the Retrievers joined the Northeast Conference in 1998. He also helped to initiate the ECAC (Men's) Lacrosse League in 1999, and most recently,Dr. Brown engineered UMBC Athletics' move to a strong and improving mid-major conference, the America East Conference, in 2003.

Over the past decade, Retriever teams have won 46 league championships and made 29 appearances in NCAA Championship competition. In all five years of league play in the NEC,UMBC was awarded the Commissioner's Cup, symbolic of the conference's top overall program. In 2002, UMBC produced its first national champion, as Cleopatra Borel won the shot putat the NCAA Indoor Track and Field Championships.

UMBC has adjusted well to life in the America East Conference with a third-place finish in the conference’s Commissioner’s Cup race in 2007-08. The athletic department just expe-rienced its most celebrated year-long period in school history with the school’s first-ever men’s and women’s basketball conference titles and NCAA Tournament appearances, sweeps inback-to-back years in the America East men’s and women’s swimming and diving championships, a conference title and NCAA appearance by men’s tennis and an NCAA Tournament winover Maryland and a third straight national tournament appearance by the men’s lacrosse team.

The program finished the 2006-07 year ranked 140th (top half) amongst all NCAA Division-I programs in the United States Sports Academy’s Director’s Cup. The University of Maryland,College Park (40) and the United States Naval Academy (72) were the only other institutions in the state that finished the year higher than the Retrievers.

UMBC's student-athletes have excelled in the classroom as well as the playing fields. In the last 10 years, 30 student-athletes have earned Academic All-America status, and morethan 54 percent of Retriever student-athletes are earning 3.0 or higher grade-point averages. Moreover, UMBC’s student-athletes graduate at a rate which is more than 10 percent higherthan the university rate and the Retrievers’ NCAA Academic Progress Rate (APR) and Graduation Success Rate (GSR) are also considerably above the national averages.

Dr. Brown has increased the full-time faculty and staff of the athletic department from 23 full-time employees at his arrival to 63 currently. There were only 13 full-time coaches (ninehead, four assistant) upon Dr. Brown's arrival; now there are 32 (14 head, 18 assistant) to ensure the Retrievers' success on and off the playing fields. New positions were created inMarketing and Promotions, Fund Raising, Facilities and Operations, Business Administration, Community Outreach, Strength and Conditioning, Athletic Communications, Sports Medicineand Academic Services. He also initiated the UMBC Dance Team, the Down and Dirty Dawg Band and the newly reinstated cheerleading squad.

Dramatic increases in the department’s entrepreneurial efforts have been implemented to support UMBC’s student-athletes. UMBC Athletics received $5,403 in gifts in the first yearof Dr. Brown's tenure. In contrast, over the last several years, UMBC Athletics has brought in an average of $1.25 million per year via fundraising, corporate sponsorships and other entre-preneurial efforts.

Starting from scratch in the 1990s, Dr. Brown developed a club sport program which has evolved into a 25-sport, 750-student program today.

In the area of community service, UMBC student-athletes currently donate more than 1,000 hours of time per yearto mentor local elementary and middle school students, and coaches make hundreds of appearances in the communitythroughout the year. The program was recognized by The NCAA News as one of the finest in the country. Most recently, theRetrievers teamed with Enterprise Rent-A-Car to raise funds to purchase a MyTobii eye-controlled communication systemfor the use of United Cerebral Palsy of Central Maryland program participants.

Dr. Brown has improved the visibility of UMBC in many ways. In the spring of 1995, he made a bold move as hebrought the first and second rounds of the NCAA Men's Basketball Championships to the Baltimore Arena. Sellout crowdsput Baltimore in the national spotlight for one glorious March week. In the spring of 1998, UMBC hosted the Women'sLacrosse National Championships at UMBC Stadium, drawing record crowds and kudos from the national media. Dr.Brown also led the successful bid to bring the Men's Lacrosse National Championships to M&T Bank Stadium in 2003,2004 and 2007, where all existing attendance records were shattered. Under Dr. Brown’s leadership, UMBC now hostsfive state high school championships in boys’ and girls’ soccer, boys’ and girls’ lacrosse and girls’ basketball.

He has spearheaded the university's rapid enhancement of athletic and recreational facilities during his tenure.Lights were added to UMBC Stadium in 1992, and the region's finest outdoor aquatic complex was unveiled in the sum-mer of 1996. Just a few months later, UMBC added a national-class track and field complex and replaced its main sta-dium field with an all-weather artificial surface. In the fall of 1999, the department moved into the Retriever ActivitiesCenter, which doubled the size of its existing indoor facility and provided all students with the top of the line in recre-ational facilities. Baseball's Alumni Field was improved during Dr. Brown’s tenure with the addition of permanent seat-ing and was later renamed The Baseball Factory Field at UMBC in a dedication ceremony following the addition of lightsto the field in 2005. UMBC Soccer Stadium was constructed in 1999 and a new Bermuda grass surface - the only oneof its kind in the conference - was dedicated in 2006. Chairback seating and a video display scoreboard were addedto the arena in 2000. Lights were added to the tennis complex in 2005 and the courts were resurfaced and outfittedwith Retriever wind screens. Field turf was added to the stadium in 2005 and a new $5 million stadium locker roomcomplex was completed in the spring of 2008.

Dr. Brown's impact has been felt beyond The Loop, as well. He has served two terms as president of the Mary-land Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics and served a term on the NCAA Division-I Championships/Com-petition Cabinet, where he influenced other directors to increase student-athlete participation in NCAAChampionship competition. Dr. Brown is also currently on the board of the Howard County tennis patrons.

He is the fourth person to hold the position of athletic director on a permanent basis in the 41-year history ofUMBC. W. Richard Mentzer served from 1966-68, followed by E. Richard Watts, Jr., who directed the program from1968-1985. Rick Hartzell led UMBC into Division I athletics in the fall of 1985, prior to Dr. Brown’s arrival in June of 1989.

Currently residing in Ellicott City, Md., with his wife, Linda, Dr. Brown, received his bachelor of science degree from Long Island University in 1967 and earneda master of science from Brooklyn College in 1969 and a Doctorate in Physical Education from Springfield College in 1980. The couple has two daughters, Melissa,an attorney, and Michelle, an elementary school teacher, and the Browns have four grandchildren. 7799
