The nine members of the Western Athletic Conference are committed to growing their athletic programs from good to great and from great to exemplary. In no time since the WAC’s founding in 1962, has the membership been so supportive of a league direction or idea.

On each campus, WAC schools are making great strides to improve both athletically and academi-cally. Whether that means better facilities, better academic support, or more fi nancial and person-nel resources, all WAC schools are making new commitments to their athletic departments. What this means for prospective and current student-athletes is a concerted eff ort to make their college athletic experience more rewarding and fulfi lling.

Play Up is not a slogan. It is a reminder and a promise to do the little things to get better each day. Whether that is working towards a personal goal, a team goal, or an institutional goal, Play Up is a league-wide commitment to get better. For some schools, the starting point of this improvement is higher than for other schools. Regardless of the starting point, each school is improving both academically and athletically.

As for the WAC staff , it is committed to cultivating success among its members, while also increas-ing exposure and revenue. Concurrently, it is also upgrading the college athletic experience for all of its student-athletes.

ACADEMIC: Boise State is the largest university in Idaho with over 19,000 students. As a metropolitan research university, more than 200 academic programs are off ered within the colleges of Arts and Sciences, Business and Economics, Education, Engineering, Health Sciences, and Social Sciences and Public Aff airs. A Boise State educator has been named as the Idaho Professor of the Year 11 times since 1990 by the Carnegie Foundation.

ATHLETIC: Just B is a new branding campaign initiated this year by Boise State Athletics. The concept is based on promoting the core values of the entire athletic department, and ties in graphically with the Bronco font style of the letter “B”. Everything it means to be a Bronco is defi ned through the Just B campaign, with key phrases like B Proud, B True, B Committed, B Positive, B Champions inter-mixed with broadband, print, video and community related projects. The campaign also involves fan connection with a B There phase that encour-ages attendance and support at all Boise State events.

MEN’S SPORTS: Basketball, Cross Country, Football, Golf, Tennis, Indoor/Outdoor Track & Field, Wrestling

WOMEN’S SPORTS: Basketball, Cross Country, Golf, Gymnastics, Soccer, Softball, Swimming & Diving, Tennis, Indoor/Outdoor Track & Field, Volleyball

ACADEMIC: Fresno State has gained positive regional, national and international attention for its commit-ment to growth and progress as it transforms itself into one of the nation’s premier regional public universi-ties. The most visible evidence on campus of Fresno State’s dynamic change is the renovation of the Henry Madden Library, already the academic cornerstone of the campus and the largest academic library between Sacramento and Los Angeles. Improvements will greatly expand the library’s ability to serve students, scholars and the general public and make room for more special collections.

ATHLETIC: Fresno State has won consecutive WAC Commissioner’s Cups thanks to excellent broad-based programs, fi ve of which won WAC Championships in 2008-09: women’s soccer, women’s basketball, women’s tennis, softball and baseball. The Bulldog women’s tennis team won its eighth consecutive WAC title and ad-vanced to the NCAA sweet 16 for the third straight year. The Bulldog football team reached a bowl game for the ninth time in the last 10 years, making its fi rst appearance in the New Mexico Bowl. Among the outstanding accomplishments of its student-athletes, baseball player Tom Mendonca was named an All-American, fi nalist for national player of the year and WAC Player of the Year. Two track and fi eld athletes (Sharon Ayala and La-trisha Jordan) won All-America honors at the NCAA championships and Fresno State’s women’s doubles team of Renata Kucerkova and Anastasia Petukova were named the International Tennis Association (ITA) National Doubles Team of the Year.

ACADEMIC: The University of Idaho is one of the leading public universities in the Northwest and has become known for its academic excellence, exceptional student living and learning environment, outstanding creative and research opportunities, and proven track record of high-achieving graduates. Idaho ranks second among regional peers for enrolling new National Merit Scholars. Fall 2008 enrollment included 26 new National Merit Finalist Scholars – the top 1 percent of the nation’s high-school graduates – in the freshman class. More than 1,900 Idaho students enrolled in 87 service-learning courses and provided more than 100,000 hours of service during the 2008-09 academic year. That led to Idaho being named to the President’s Higher Education Com-munity Service Honor Roll for exemplary service eff orts for the third year in a row.

ATHLETIC: The face of Vandal Athletics changes this fall with the replacement of the solid west wall of the landmark Kibbie Dome with translucent glass panels – the fi rst of a phased remodel of the 35-year-old facility.

SINCE 1962 In its 48th year, the Western Athletic Conference continues to evolve and features some of the nation’s best intercollegiate competition. One thing that remains unchanged is the persistent nature of the nine schools in the WAC to advance their programs to contend at the top levels of the NCAA. The WAC provides its student-athletes the chance to travel to scenic destinations and gain exposure in some of the nation’s most diverse markets. In addition, the WAC’s student-athletes work to achieve the highest levels of success with the academic support of their respective institutions.

CONTINUED SUCCESS The WAC has experienced tremendous success. The WAC has sent a total of 27 teams to bowl games since 2001, including more than half of its teams in 2008 with a record-tying fi ve teams. Boise State has won 88 football games since joining the conference, the second most in the nation during that time span (2001-08). The conference sent teams to back-to-back BCS games as Hawai‘i earned a bid to the 2008 Sugar Bowl following Boise State’s unforgettable victory in the 2007 Fiesta Bowl. In men’s basketball, the WAC has sent at least two teams to the NCAA Tournament in 23 of the past 26 seasons. Every current school in the WAC has competed in the NCAA Tournament since 1990. In baseball, the WAC has boasted two national champions since 2003 including Fresno State’s College World Series victory in 2008. In women’s sports, Fresno State softball has competed in every NCAA Tournament ever held while Louisiana Tech basketball has played in all but three. Current WAC alums have made their presence felt as well. David Carr (Fresno State) was the fi rst player selected in the 2002 NFL Draft. Cheryl Ford (Louisiana Tech) was named the WNBA Rookie of the Year and helped the Detroit Shock win the league’s championship in 2003. In 2004, the United States’ softball team won the Olympic gold medal with former Fresno State players Laura Berg and Lovie Jung. Jeff Weaver (Fresno State) earned the win in the St. Louis Cardinals’ World Series clinching victory in 2006. Quarterback Colt Brennan (Hawai‘i) fi nished third in the 2007 Heisman Trophy voting, and in 2008, Natasha Kai (Hawai‘i) helped the United States to a gold medal in soccer at the Olympics in Beijing.

TELEVISION PRESENCE In 2001, the WAC partnered with ESPN for coverage of football and basketball giving the conference national exposure from one of the most respected broadcast entities in the country. An extension was signed in 2008 that guarantees over 300 regular season WAC contests and 45 championship events will be aired on the ESPN networks through the spring of 2017. The WAC also offi cially added WAC.tv in 2006 to give fans streaming internet access to many of its postseason championships including volleyball, soccer, swimming and diving, basketball, gymnastics, softball and baseball.

HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE The WAC is the sixth oldest among the nation’s 11 Division I-A confer-ences. Its history traces back to July 27, 1962, when the original six-team league of Arizona, Arizona State, Brigham Young, New Mexico, Utah and Wyoming began competition. The fi rst championship was held in November 1962, when Arizona won the men’s cross country title and New Mexico followed with the fi rst WAC football title. Arizona fi nished second in the NCAA College World Series and, less than three years later, Arizona State claimed the league’s fi rst NCAA title when the Sun Devils won the College World Series trophy. Fresno State was the last WAC school to earn an NCAA team title when it won the College World Series in 2008.

Since the WAC’s inception, several changes have occurred. UTEP and Colorado State became members in September 1967, while Arizona and Arizona State withdrew on June 30, 1978. The WAC then added San Diego State (1978), Hawai‘i (1979) and Air Force (1980). Before 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 fi rst in which both men and women competed under the WAC name. Fresno State was added in 1992, and then in 1996, the women’s programs from Air Force and Hawai‘i along with six new schools (UNLV, Rice, San Jose State, SMU, TCU and Tulsa) came into the WAC. Air Force, Brigham Young, Colorado State, UNLV, New Mexico, San Diego State, Utah and Wyoming withdrew on June 30, 1999. Nevada (2000), Boise State (2001) and Loui-siana Tech (2001) were added while TCU withdrew following the 2000-01 season. The current membership was established on July 1, 2005, when Idaho, New Mexico State and Utah State joined the WAC after Rice, SMU, UTEP and Tulsa withdrew. The WAC has had just fi ve commissioners in its history. Paul Brechler was named the fi rst leader of the conference and held the position from 1962-1968. He was followed by Wiles Hallock (1968-71), Stan Bates (1971-80), Dr. Joe Kearney (1980-94) and Karl Benson (1994-present).

WAC CHAMPIONS Presently, the WAC crowns team and individual champions in 19 sports – eight men’s and 11 women’s. For the men, there are champion-ships in baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, tennis, indoor track and fi eld and outdoor track and fi eld. Championships for women are held in basketball, cross country, golf, gymnastics, soccer, softball, swimming and diving, tennis, indoor track and fi eld, outdoor track and fi eld and volleyball.

The WAC offi ce has been located in the Denver area since the confer-ence’s inception with the exception of a two-year stay in Phoenix from 1964-66.

KARL BENSON

When Karl Benson was named the fi fth commissioner in the history of the Western Athletic Conference on April 20, 1994, he brought with him a wealth of experience and a personal history of success to the position. Since that time, Benson not only has laid a strong foundation for the WAC’s future, he also steered the conference through unsettled times during the late 1990s and again a few years later when the defection of member institutions threatened the WAC. Through his leadership and vision, it didn’t take long for the WAC to regain its place among the nation’s top Division I conferences. Benson has spearheaded conference expansion with the additions of Nevada, Boise State and Louisiana Tech earlier this decade and an additional round of expansion with the invitations of New Mexico State, Utah State and Idaho a few years ago. Nationally, Benson has earned the respect of his peers after serving on the NCAA

Commissioner

Management Council from 1999-2002, and a fi ve-year term on the NCAA Men’s Basketball Committee from 2002-06. Benson hit the ground running when he was hired in 1994 and initiated several programs that improved the conference’s national position in virtually ever category. He was instrumental in developing multi-year agreements with the Holiday Bowl, Cotton Bowl, Copper Bowl, Las Vegas Bowl, Silicon Valley Football Classic, GMAC Bowl and currently, the Roady’s Humanitarian Bowl, Sheraton Hawai‘i Bowl and New Mexico Bowl. In the summer of 2005, he implemented “Play Up” a new marketing campaign to improve the public and private perceptions of the WAC and its members through national, local and regional touch points. The conference offi cially added WAC.tv prior to the 2006-07 season, giving fans streaming video access to many of the postseason championships of the sports off ered by the WAC. In 1995-96, the WAC signed an exclusive multi-year agreement with ESPN for the unprecedented live telecast of its basketball and football. Included in that deal was a women’s basketball contract, the fi rst in conference history. In 2008, Benson negotiated an extension with ESPN that gives the WAC over 300 regular season contests and 45 championship events that will be aired through the 2016-17 season. Benson came to the WAC after four successful years as the commissioner of the Mid-American Conference. There, he implemented

several innovative projects and was instrumental in the formation of the Las Vegas Bowl. Prior to taking the reins of the MAC, Benson served on the NCAA staff for more than four years where he was the director of NCAA championships when selected as MAC commissioner. Benson joined the NCAA staff in January, 1986, as a compliance representative and was appointed assistant director of championships in June, 1987. He was promoted to director of championships in 1988. In that position, Benson actively supervised eight assistant directors in their administration of 68 NCAA championships. A native of the state of Washington, Benson graduated from high school in Pullman in 1970, attended Spokane Falls Community College and then received a bachelor of science degree in physical education from Boise State University in 1975. He has also completed course work toward his master’s degree in athletics administration at the University of Utah. Benson played baseball at both Spokane Falls Community College and Boise State University before serving as the baseball coach at Fort Steilacoom Community College in Tacoma, Wash., for eight years and as the director of athletics at Fort Steilacoom from 1979-84. From 1984-86, he was an assistant baseball coach and an administrative assistant in the athletics department at Utah. He received the Distinguished Alumni Award from Boise State in April of 2006. Benson was born on December 1, 1951 and has one daughter, Jessie, 17.

WAC SAAC

THE VOICE OF THE STUDENT ATHLETE

How does the WAC generate feedback from its most valuable product, its student-athletes? Through the Western Athletic Conference Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (also known as the WAC SAAC) which was established in 1998.

Since its implementation, the WAC SAAC has been an essential component in the conference’s governance structure as well as a strong voice for student-athletes’ well-being at all levels (e.g., institutional, conference and national). It provides recommendations and positions on specifi c conference and NCAA proposed legislation, and it addresses national issues that may have an eff ect on the well-being of all student-athletes. In addition, its members provide recommendations for the eighteen WAC championships in order to enhance the student-athlete experience for all sports. Another objective which the committee constantly strives to obtain is to help strengthen and improve the communication and relationships among athletes, campus administrators and coaches.

On the national stage, the WAC SAAC selects one of its committee members to serve as its representative on the NCAA SAAC, which includes all of the Division I conferences.

The WAC SAAC is a proactive committee and is making a very positive impact within the WAC membership. Annually, each member institution appoints two student-athletes from its own campus SAAC to serve on the conference committee. To conduct business, the committee has two in-person meetings during the year and schedules monthly teleconference calls during the academic year.

As part of the WAC SAAC Spring meeting, the committee conducts a community service outreach project within the host member institution’s local area. Past projects have included the following: sports camp and clinic for underprivileged children, visiting local Boys and Girls Clubs, visiting Children’s Hospitals and homeless shelters and neighborhood house painting. Taking a leadership role in conducting community projects is part of the WAC SAAC’s goals and objectives.

If you have any questions relative to the WAC SAAC or its activities, please contact Anthony Archbald in the conference offi ce.

2009 PREVIEW

SOCCER FORMAT

The WAC will continue its regular-season play as a single round-robin format for a total of eight conference matches. The points system is as follows: each team will receive three points for a win and one point for a tie. The six teams with the most points at the end of the regular season will advance to the WAC Tournament which is being held Nov. 5-6 and 8 in Boise, Idaho.

TIE-BREAKING PROCEDURE

To determine championship seeding in the event of ties between two teams or ties among multiple teams, the following criteria are applied:

In the event of a two-way tie:1. Head-to-head competition2. Compare the teams’ records to that of the next highest fi nishing team (if tie for fi rst). If tie is for position other than fi rst, comparison will begin at the top of the standings.3. In the unlikely event that teams are still tied, the conference conducts a draw.For a three or more-way tie:1. Head-to-head competition among the teams involved in the tie. The team(s) with the best record against the other teams receives the higher seed or advances to the next tie-breaker.2. Same procedures as above.

SOCCER NOTES

2008 SEASON IN REVIEW

FRESNO STATE FALLS TO UCLA IN FIRST ROUND OF NCAA TOURNAMENT

Fresno State soccer run at the NCAA title was cut short after No. 1 seed UCLA beat the `Dogs 5-0. The Bulldogs advanced to the NCAA Tourna-ment after Elora Martinez scored a game winning goal in double overtime against Utah State at the WAC Tournament. The `Dogs ended the season 11-9-2.

The Bulldog defense got tested right out of the gate. The Bruins took control and attacked the `Dogs goal right away.

The Bruins took an early 2-0 lead after McCall Zerboni scored back to back goals. All-WAC tournament MVP Ali Sill got a shot off along with All-WAC tournament team selection Elora Martinez. Revel retired the half with two saves. The Bruins outshot the Bulldogs 10-2.

In the second half the Bulldog defense was challenged from the fi rst whistle. Fresno State held off the Bruin attack, but Zerboni scored her third goal of the night for a hat trick.

The Bruins scored two more goals by Kara Lang and Lauren Cheney.

The Bulldogs ended the game with fi ve shots and Revel had 10 saves. Revel ended the season with 111 saves which lands her in fi fth place in Fresno State history.

The Bulldogs fi nished the 2008 season with their second WAC Tourna-ment championship. The Bulldogs made the NCAA Tournament for the third time in school history.The team started the season 3-7 and at the beginning of WAC play turned it around and fi nished the second half of the season 9-2-2.

Fresno State had six players earn All-WAC honors and four named to the WAC All-Tournament team.

Seniors Selena Gill, Nicole Gutierrez, and Ali Sill graduate with more wins than any other class with 47. The three captains helped the `Dogs reach the NCAA Tournament as freshmen and seniors. Sill graduates as the career assist leader in Fresno State history. The young Bulldog team gained experience after playing a tough UCLA program that will carry over to the 2009 season. The `Dogs return 20 student-athletes next year.

FRESNO STATE WINS 2008 WAC TOURNAMENT

Fresno State soccer advanced to the NCAA Tournament after beating Utah State, 2-1, in double overtime. The Bulldogs last won the title of WAC Tournament Champions in 2005.

From the start it was a battle for possession in the WAC Championship match. Utah State gained control of the ball early and put pressure on the Bulldog defense. Utah State was able to get off a couple of close attempts on goal, but shots went high or wide.

The Fresno State backline held strong and stopped the Aggies attack on goal. The ̀ Dogs found their footing and started pushing the ball out wide to the outside midfi elders. The midfi elders got crosses off to the middle of the Aggie box, but unable to fi nd the back of the net.

Utah State scored the fi rst goal in the 19th minute of play. Lauren Hansen scored off an assist from Candice Clark. This was the fi rst goal scored on Revel in 360 minutes of play. Utah State is the only WAC opponent that was been able to score on Revel.

The Broncos enter their 10th season under the direction of head coach Steve Lucas.

Boise State returns the bulk of last year’s squad, 18-of-24 players, that set the school record for wins going 11-8-2 overall and went 3-3-1 in league to place fourth.

Among the 18 returners are seven starters including leading scorer Shannon Saxton. The junior forward recorded six goals and eight assists for 20 points as a sophomore last fall. She ranks fi rst in career assists with 13 and second all-time in career points (59) and goals (23).

The Broncos return four of their top-fi ve scorers from last season. Unfortunately, two will miss the 2009 season with injuries, senior forward Andrea Huerta and sophomore midfi elder Janelle Jin. Joining Saxton back on the active list is sophomore forward Chelsea Robinson who was fourth in scoring with three goals and three assists.

The team lost six players from last year’s roster but welcomed back to campus this fall 16 veterans, two redshirts, and eight newcomers to this season’s squad. Among the 28 ath-letes on the roster are three seniors, four juniors, 11 sophomores and 10 freshmen (two are redshirt freshmen).

The 2008 Vandal women couldn’t catch a break during the year. Idaho had 10 losses by one goal in 2008, with three coming in overtime.

Idaho has reduced its opponents’ scoring average in each of the last three seasons. In 2006, the Vandals allowed 3.09 goals per game, then allowed 2.19 in 2007 and 1.62 in 2008.

The 2009 freshman class at Idaho is the largest since 1999–the program’s second year of existence. One-half of Idaho’s 2009 roster will be true freshman, as 12 of the team’s 24 players will be fresh out of high school.

With the graduation of Kelsey Manning last season, Idaho lost 68 games worth of experi-ence, including 62 consecutive starts, at the center back position. Prime candidates to step up into the defensive leader position include sophomores Danielle Hayward and Desirae Hull, who started 17 and 15 games, respectively, last season as true freshmen.

One position of strength for Idaho in 2009 will be goalkeeper, as the team returns both senior Anna Sandman and sophomore Liz Boyden. Boyden played in 16 and started 15 last season as a freshman, while Sandman has 31 games and 29 career starts to her name. Boyden led the WAC with 5.62 saves per game in 2008, while Sandman ranked second in the same category in 2007 with 5.41. Sandman’s 92 saves in 2007 are an Idaho single-season school record, while Boyden’s 90 in 2008 rank third.

The Lady Techsters historic 2008 campaign, where they went 10-5-5, was highlighted by the NCAA naming the team the most improved squad in the nation.

The season marked Tech’s fi rst winning season in its fi ve-year history.

Along with Tech establishing a school record in wins with 10, they also set single-season records in shutouts (10), goals (49), fewest goals allowed (19), assists (40) and points (138).

The team notched single-game records in assists (9) and points (25), while they tied the record for most goals (8).

Fourteen letterwinners return from the 2008 team, including senior Hikari Kurokawa and graduate student Kat McCullough along with fellow WAC Player of the Week honorees Cat Buchanan and Scotti Culton.

Tech’s four player of the week selections from last season (Buchanan, Culton, Kurokawa and McCullough) were the most the program has had in a single season.

Head coach Kevin Sherry and his staff added nine newcomers in the off season.

The Techsters’ schedule features 20 contests, 12 of which will be played on campus at the new Lady Techster Soccer Field.

In head coach Jeff Leightman’s second year in charge, San Jose State will be in search of its fi rst winning season since going 12-7-1 in 1999.

The Spartans return WAC Off ensive Player of the Year candidate Emmy Belding as a senior striker in 2009. Belding led the team in virtually all statistical categories a year ago, totaling 17 points from eight goals and one assist. She was tied for second in the WAC in goals and tied for sixth in points.

San Jose State had seven true freshmen and one redshirt freshman who started at least 11 matches a season ago.

San Jose State has qualifi ed for the WAC Tournament in each of the past four seasons, reaching the championship game in 2005 and the semifi nals in 2006.

A program high of 10 Spartans were named Academic All-WAC in 2008-09, including re-turning players Emmy Belding, Katie Bonadies, Shanelle Furner, Kelsy Holm, Kim Johnston, Roxy Kamal, Lauren Ng-Pinkerton, Lauren Sanchez and Angela Santoro.

The Spartans will open the new campaign at home against top area foe Santa Clara (Aug. 21) for the second season in a row. San Jose State is scheduled to contest nine of its 19 matches on the new FieldTurf inside Spartan Stadium in 2009.
