Horejsi Family Athletics center


The horejsi Family Athletics Center has served as the home of Kansas volleyball since its opening on September 1, 1999.

Routinely in the AVCA’s top-50 in attendance, the crowd at Horejsi Family Athletics Center creates a true home court advantage.

The $3.8 million project was completed shortly after the conclusion of the 1998 volleyball season. In addi-tion to serving as the practice and competition home of the KU volleyball team, the Horejsi Center also acts as a practice facility for the Jayhawk men’s and wom-en’s basketball teams.

Located between the Wagnon Student Athlete Center and Hoglund Ballpark, the 16,500 square foot facility seats 1,300 fans for Kansas volleyball matches.

Besides housing practice and competition courts for both volleyball and basketball, the Horejsi Center boasts the new KU volleyball lockerroom, concession stands and a ticket booth.

On September 1, 1999, KU defeated UMKC, 3-1, in the first match inside Horejsi Family Athletics Center. How-

ever, the official dedication ceremony was held prior to the Kansas-Auburn match on September 11, 1999, dur-ing the Jayhawk Classic Tournament. Last season, the Jayhawks added another first to its home floor advan-tage when they took down No. 10 Iowa State, 3-1, for the program’s first victory over a top-10 opponent.

“The Horejsi Family Athletics Center not only gives us top-notch practice courts, but it provides us with a court that makes home matches at KU an exciting event to be a part of,” said KU head coach Ray Bechard.

Jayhawk Traditions

The Rock Chalk ChantThe Rock Chalk Chant has been the battle cry of KU fans for more than 80 years. This strange, traditional chant, which is among the most famous of all college cheers, was started by E.H.S. Bailey, a professor of chemistry. Bailey wanted a cheer for his Science Club. Returning from a convention in Wichita, Bailey and some associates patterned a yell after the rhythmic cadence of their train rolling along the tracks. On May 21, 1886, Bailey submitted the cheer to his club.

Before the University adopted the cheer in 1897, it consisted of “Rah, Rah, Jayhawk, KU” being repeated three times. An English professor soon suggested that “Rock Chalk” be substituted for “Rah, Rah” because it rhymed with Jayhawk.

“Rock Chalk” was also symbolic of the chalky limestone formations found on Mount Oread. Teddy Roosevelt once said the Rock Chalk chant was the best he had ever heard.

Campanile hillCampanile Hill forms the picturesque backdrop for Memorial Stadium. On a sunny fall Saturday, the “Hill” is transformed into a congregating place for watching Jayhawk football, sunning and barbequing. Potter Lake, just to the southeast of Memorial Stadium and at the bottom of Campanile Hill, adds to the beauty of the Kansas campus.

Rock Chalk Chant

Wave the Wheat


waving The wheatSince the early days of KU sports, it has been a ritual of Jayhawk fans to “wave the wheat” following every Kansas scoring drive. The ritual consists of fans waving their arms in the air, an activity which, when done by a large crowd, resembles a breezy Kansas wheat field.

The NicknameDuring the Civil War a regiment raised by Kansas Governor Charles Robinson called itself the “Independent Mounted Jayhawks” (later officially the First Kansas Calvary and then the Seventh Kansas Regiment). By the end of the Civil War the word Jayhawk was associated with the spirit of camaraderie and the courageous fighting qualities that characterized efforts to keep Kansas a free state.

By 1886, the University of Kansas had adopted the mythical bird as part of the KU yell. When the university’s football team first took the field in 1890, it seemed only natural that they should be called Jayhawkers. Few colleges and universities have such a meaningful symbol, one so deeply associated with the struggles of the people who founded them.

The Fight SongGeorge “Dumpy” Bowles, a student with the class of 1912, longed to make a great contribution to the KU spirit, but wasn’t athletic enough to do historic deeds on the athletic field. He turned to music and produced some outstanding student musical shows.

A song in one of these shows was “I’m a Jayhawk.” Written in 1912, it was dormant until 1920 when a growth in school spirit brought out “I’m a Jayhawk” once more. The song contributed to the raising of funds to build both the KU football stadium and student union as World War I memorials. The 1926 glee club made it known nationally.

what’s a Jayhawk?The University of Kansas is home of the Jayhawk, a mythical bird with a fascinating history. Its origin is rooted in the historic struggles of Kansas settlers. The term “Jayhawk” was probably coined about 1848. Accounts of its use appeared from Illinois to Texas.

The name combines two birds - the blue jay, a noisy, quarrelsome thing known to rob other nests, and the sparrow hawk, a stealthy hunter. The message here: Don’t turn your back on this bird.

The Alma materIn 1891, professor George Barlow Penny searched for a school song for the Glee and Mandolin Club to sing on its tour through Kansas to Denver and back. No one responded with an original song in answer to his appeals. Just before departure, he thought of the Cornell song “Far Above Cayuga’s Waters.” Hastily changing a few words, he gave it to the glee club men to sing on the trip. He did not expect the song to be used after their return, but “Crimson and the Blue” still goes on. The music is not Cornell’s but an old English folk tune, “Annie Lisle.”

2011 Season OutlookArmed with five members of the starting rotation and the full-time libero from a year ago, Kansas volleyball head coach Ray Bechard will have a full arsenal of leadership complimented by a talented crew of underclassmen in 2011.

“It’s always special,” Bechard said about starting his 14th season at Kansas. “There’s the freshmen apprehension, the returners and the ‘here we go again.’ When they walk out of the locker room that first time, even though I’ve been doing this for over 30 years, there is just this buzz I get – ‘Here we go, here we go.’ It never gets old.”

A pair of Super-State freshmen will join a Jayhawk volleyball team ready to vie for its fourth NCAA Tournament

appearance in eight seasons. Back-to-back seasons of winning records complete with marquee victories against top-25 opponents have Bechard focused on the task at hand heading into the fall.

“The good and bad of last year was there were many very good wins, but in the end we were still a little bit short of what our goal was – the NCAA Tournament,” Bechard said. “Obviously, we played on many occasions at a level that was good enough to be included with that group. Looking back now, we just need to find how to be at that ‘good’ level with some consistency.”

The Jayhawks landed on the side Bechard preferred several times last fall, as the team finished the 2010 campaign

with a 17-14 overall record and an 8-12 mark in Big 12 action. The 11 victories in front of the KU faithful at Horejsi Family Athletics Center tied for the most under Bechard’s watch, and included the Jayhawks’ upset of No. 10 Iowa State.

“This year, I’m looking for a little more consistency and closing out some teams that we had the opportunity to close out,” Bechard said. “There were a lot positives from last year, but obviously the ultimate goal is to be included in that group that plays in the NCAA Tournament.”

This summer, the Jayhawks spent nearly two weeks in Europe where they posted a 5-2 record in seven matches. Aside from strengthening pre-existing team chemistry, the time away proved even more beneficial for the 10 sophomores on the roster. The underclassmen crew gained a lot of in-game experience and now enter their second year with an advantage to meet their increased expectations.

“There aren’t a lot of sophomores who’ve played almost 40 matches and had an extra 10 days of practice,” Bechard said. “We can’t sit back and say we

practiced and played a lot this summer so now we’re better. We’ve got to use that as a springboard and determine what we’ve learned from this. What did we get better at and what can we identify as some things we can tighten up before we get rolling.”

RELOADING FOR 2011Letterwinners lost (4): Karina Garlington, Melissa Manda, Mel Townsend and Jenna KaiserNewcomers (3): Chelsea Albers (Fr./OH) Taylor Manning (RS So./MB/OH) and Sara McClinton (Fr./OH)

With the departure of Karina Garlington, the second-ranked all-time kills leader in program history, the Jayhawks lose a powerful scoring source. Garlington’s 3.51 kills per set (kps) led the team and ranked seventh in the Big 12 last season. Defensively, Melissa Manda (2.58 dps) took over as the program’s all-time digs leader in her final year with 1,457 digs in four seasons.

Bechard acknowledges the impact Garlington, Manda and the 2010 senior class had on the team, but quickly turns to his excitement towards his trio of seniors, pair of juniors and a large nucleus of underclassmen that will collaborate this fall.

“All of the seniors were instrumental in some capacity,” Bechard said. “But, we also had a large core of young kids, too. The best thing about freshmen is that they mature a year and become sophomores. Kaiser and Garlington created a lot of offense for us on the outside so there is a void there, but we feel like with our returners and newcomers that we have an opportunity to be solid in those positions. The maturity we have in other positions will make us stronger, too.”

OUTSIDE HITTERSWatch List: Allison Mayfield (Sr.), Lauren Hagan (Sr.), Marianne Beal (So.), Catherine Carmichael (So.), Amy Wehrs (So.), Chelsea Albers (Fr.), Sara McClinton (Fr.), Taylor Manning (RS So.)

FIRST IMPRESSION: “A couple people have to emerge from that group and be solid there for us to have the type of season we want to have,” Bechard said.

Three-year starter Allison Mayfield will lead an offensive attack that posted 13 kps as a team last season. Second only to Garlington in 2010, Mayfield’s 330 kills and 2.87 kps last season lead the returning core. Senior Lauren Hagan and sophomore Amy Wehrs will look to add to their contributions after seeing time in a combined 55 sets a year ago.

“On the outside, that’s where Mayfield has been a three-year starter for us,” Bechard said. “But there’s going to be a couple of other spots that the Marianne Beal’s, the Catherine Carmichael’s and the Amy Wehr’s bring back some experience in that position, but Chelsea (Albers) and Sara (McClinton) as freshmen will also get an opportunity”.

A four year letterwinner at Papillion LaVista High School, Chelsea Albers was crowned the Omaha World Herald’s Girls’ 2010-11 Athlete of the Year for the state of Nebraska. After leading her team to its second-straight district championship her senior year, Albers was named to the Under Armour Girls High School All-America Second Team.

The two-time Super-State honoree also helped power PLVHS to state championships in 2007 and 2008. The following year, Albers led the state of Nebraska with 487



kills in 2009 and was second in blocks. “How quickly we can integrate the two freshmen into the mix will be key,” Bechard said. “We’re not going to be dependent on freshmen to get us there, but we obviously think they can add to what we’re trying to do.”

Also a Nebraska native, Sara McClinton led Millard North High School to district championships in 2008 and 2010. After leading her team, McClinton was named all-Nebraska Super-State First Team her senior season. Continuously improving, she started her high school career as an all-state honorable mention member in 2008 and 2009.

“The level they played at in high school and club volleyball certainly creates an environment that will allow for as smooth of a transition as we can hope for,” Bechard said. “They’ve given themselves the best chance to hit the ground running.”

MIDDLE BLOCKERSWatch List: Caroline Jarmoc (So.), Tayler Tolefree (Jr.), Jessie Allen (So.)

FIRST IMPRESSION: “I’m very excited about the experience we bring back in the middle with (Tayler) Tolefree and (Caroline) Jarmoc,” Bechard said. “The experiences and practice Jessie (Allen) got on our trip to Italy really helped her, so I think that will be a real strength for us.”

Sophomore Caroline Jarmoc and junior Tayler Tolefree will provide the blocking backbone for the 2011 edition of the Jayhawks after they paired up to lead the team in blocks last season. Tolefree’s 0.87 blocks per set (bps) was second only to Jarmoc’s 0.99 bps a year ago. They collected 212.0 of the team’s 256.5 blocks total blocks as a duo in 2010.

“Jarmoc, Tolefree and Allen are all physical players, so we think the initial line of defense has the opportunity to have a little more of an impact,” Bechard said. “If the ball clears that, then we do have some experience behind them. That combination will create a little better defensive point-scoring mindset for us. There are other players that can enter into that mix.”

Those other players Bechard predicts will have an impact on point scoring with the block include Albers, McClinton, Carmichael and Mayfield as well as sophomore setter Kara Wehrs.

Mayfield racked up 57 total blocks last year, including 13 of the solo variety. The setters got involved at the net, too. Senior Nicole Tate and Wehrs joined forces for 61 combined blocks as more than two-thirds of the Jayhawks’ blocking production returns for the 2011 season.

DEFENSIVE SPECIALISTS/LIBEROSWatch List: Brianne Riley (So.), Jaime Mathieu (So.), Morgan Boub (Jr.)

FIRST IMPRESSION: “Our middle blockers will help us be pretty physical at the net, but our defense is also pretty quick in the group behind them,” Bechard said. “That combination should allow for us to be better defensively.”

While the Jayhawks narrowly edged their opponents in kills a year ago with 1,511 kills to 1,508, the Crimson and Blue separated themselves even farther on the defensive side. The Kansas defenders averaged nearly 15 digs per set a year ago to their opponents’ 14.25 dps.

All three members of the returning defensive unit reached 200 digs in 2010. Sophomore Jaime Mathieu (200) and junior Morgan Boub (292) each proved their value, while sophomore Brianne Riley shined in her rookie season.

As the nearly full-time libero, Riley finished the season in the top 10 in digs in the Big 12 with 4.11 dps, which was good for fourth all-time in KU history. Additionally, her 403 digs for the season put her eighth all-time in program history in a single season.

SETTERSWatch List: Nicole Tate (Sr.), Kara Wehrs (So.), Erin McNorton (So.)

FIRST IMPRESSION: “I like our setter crew,” Bechard said. “We can go with a one-setter system if we need to or we can switch into a two-setter system, which really helps with our versatility.”

After starting her career as a Big 12 All-Freshman Team member, senior Nicole Tate will begin her final campaign with the Jayhawks as fifth all-time on the program’s career assist leaderboard (3,044). Tate’s 10.16 assists per set (aps) ranked fifth in the Big 12 to finish the 2010 season.

During the 2010 season, Tate shared time with sophomore Kara Wehrs, who found her groove as a true freshman. Wehrs stared 12 matches and saw time in 47 sets, averaging nearly a kill per set (0.96) and 7.94 aps. Fellow sophomore Erin McNorton made the most of the five sets she checked into, tallying nearly two assists per set with a pair of digs.

Ray Bechard14th season

Ray Bechard enters his 14th year as the head coach of the Kansas volleyball team during the 2011 sea-son.After bringing in the 26th-ranked recruiting class according to PrepVolleyball.com, Bechard and the Jayhawks put together a highlight-reel 2010 campaign. Kansas posted a 17-14 record, the most victories recorded since the team’s 19-win season in 2004. Those 17 wins resulted from an intense schedule that included six nationally-ranked opponents. In the Jayhawks’ 31 matches last season, 14 of them paired Kansas against teams that went on play in the NCAA Tournament.

Back-to-back preseason tournament titles kicked off the sea-son as the Jayhawks jumped out to a 7-0 record a year ago. They claimed Creighton’s Bluejay Invitational and their own Jayhawk Classic in the opening weekends. The excitement took off from there when Bechard guided his crew to a 3-1 victory against No. 10 Iowa State on Oct. 9, 2010, marking KU’s first win against a top-10 opponent in program history. Of the Jayhawks’ 13 all-time wins against top-25 foes, all but one have come under Bechard’s direction.

A year after his 900th career victory milestone in 2009, Bechard notched his 200th career win at Kansas during the 2010 sea-son. The momentous achievement marked one of many for the veteran head coach. Entering his 14th season with the Jayhawks, Bechard has coached 74 Academic All-Big 12 selec-tions, 11 All-Big 12 honorees and, most notably, he is the only coach in program history with an NCAA Tournament appear-ance on his resume, a feat which he accomplished for three-straight seasons from 2003-05.

The Sunflower State native has established himself as the KU volleyball program’s winningest and longest-serving coach. He has compiled a remarkable all-time coaching re-cord of 923-248 (.788 winning percentage) since arriving on the coaching scene 26 years ago as the head coach at Barton Community College in Great Bend, Kan.

In 13 seasons at Kansas, Bechard has led the Jayhawks to a 207-188 mark and nine seasons at .500 or better. Additionally, Bechard has built a solid fan base for Kansas volleyball as the Jayhawks have consistently finished among the nation’s top 50 attendance leaders the last several years. In 2010, nearly 950 fans filled Horejsi Family Athletics Center for every home

Coaches | Staffmatch - good for the 41st-best average in the country. For good reason, the Jayhawks tied the most home court wins under Bechard’s watch in 2010 (11).

His players get it done in the classroom, as well. With two-time ESPN The Magazine Academic All-District honoree Karina Garlington leading the way, Bechard saw 15 of his student-athletes named to the Big 12 Commissioner’s Honor Roll in 2010-11. Furthermore, the Jayhawks made it six-straight years to claim the AVCA Team Academic Award.

The only coach to take the Jayhawks to the NCAA Tournament is on track for a return trip based on the success he and the team have garnered in the last two seasons. In both 2009 and 2010, Bechard has led his teams to winning records, while also taking down a top-25 team in each year.

His team also enjoyed national recognition in 2008 when Garlington was named the school’s second AVCA National Player of the Week on Nov. 10. In the same season, Garlington earned her first ESPN The Magazine Academic All-District honor, as she was named third team. With her second award last season, Bechard has accumulated seven academic all-district honorees. In addition, Nicole Tate earned 2008 Big 12 All-Freshman team honors.

During the 2007 season, Bechard and his team put together a 3-2 upset over No. 18 Oklahoma, the sixth-straight season KU upset a ranked team, and a four-game victory against tournament-bound Missouri State, which made Bechard the winningest coach in KU volleyball history. The Jayhawks also picked up a win at Missouri, marking their first road win in Colum-bia since 2001.

The 2007 season saw the graduation of senior stand-out Emily Brown. Brown left her name littered all over the KU record books as she became the first Jayhawk to reach the 1,000 milestone in kills, digs and assists, while also landing on five top 10 career lists.

In 2006, KU picked up a Preseason Big 12 Newcomer of the Year selection in Natalie Uhart. Uhart later suf-fered a season-ending injury prior to the team’s first contest and that seemed to set the tone for the year as the Jayhawks were hampered with injuries over the course of the season.

However, the team still collected several accomplish-ments during the 2006 season including a tourna-ment title at Temple to start off the year. In addition, the team dug up 15.81 balls per game, its highest dig average since the 2001 season and third-highest av-erage in Bechard’s 13-year stint.

Just one year earlier in 2005, Bechard led the Jayhawks to a 15-15 overall record and their third-straight post-season appearance. Despite a depleted roster due to injuries, KU battled No. 16 UCLA to four games in Los Angeles in the NCAA Tournament First Round.

The 2005 season also saw the careers of three talent-ed seniors, Josi Lima, Paula Caten and Andi Rozum, come to a close. Caten became KU’s first Academic All-American in volleyball, while Lima, KU’s only four-time All-Big 12 First Team selection, finished her ca-reer as the Jayhawks’ all-time kills leader and one of the most prolific volleyball players in school history. Rozum’s name still sits at the top of the career assists list.

In addition to his team’s achievements and the in-

dividual successes of his seniors, Bechard reached a significant milestone on Sept. 10, 2005, when he coached his 1,000th career match. The Jayhawks commemorated the milestone by defeating visiting Michigan State, 3-0.

In 2004, KU returned to the NCAA Tournament for the second-straight season and fell just short of a Sweet 16 appearance. The Jayhawks defeated Santa Clara, 3-1, before falling to host Washington, 3-2, in second-round action. KU came back from a two-game deficit to battle the Huskies, who advanced to the Final Four and then won the National Championship in 2005.

In addition to the Jayhawks’ return to the postseason, KU enjoyed its first national ranking on Sept. 13 when Kansas came in at No. 24 in the USA Today/CSTV Top 25 Coaches Poll. A week later, Kansas reached its high-est national ranking sitting at No. 21 in the poll.

The 2003 season became another celebrated year as KU achieved the most victories since 1991 (22) and the fourth most in program history, the most confer-ence wins in school history (13) and the highest finish in the conference race (tied for third) since joining the Big 12 in 1996.

The greatest highlight of the 2003 season came when Bechard and the Jayhawks were invited to participate in the NCAA Tournament for the first time in program history. KU shocked powerhouse Long Beach State by sweeping the 49ers 3-0 in first-round action be-fore falling to host No. 4 Pepperdine 3-1 in the NCAA Second Round in Malibu, Calif.

Bechard also reached two significant coaching mile-

stones in 2003 as he recorded his 800th career victory and 100th win at Kansas.

Since his arrival at KU over a decade ago, Bechard’s teams have been making their mark in the KU record books, sitting atop numerous career lists. Bechard has helped develop the play of several standout play-ers, including Lima, who took home All-Big 12 First Team honors all four years, as well as the 2002 Big 12 Newcomer of the Year award as a freshman. Lima, KU’s all-time kills leader (1,483), joined middle block-er Amanda Reves (1996-99) as the two players to earn first-team league honors under Bechard. Lima also became the first player in KU history to be named to the American Volleyball Coaches Association All-Re-gion Team in 2003.

Katie Martinich was named the Big 12 Sportsperson of the Year for the 2007-08 academic year and Jennifer Kraft (1999-2002) earned the Big 12 Defensive Spe-cialist award in 2002, while Ashley Michaels (2001-04) was an All-Big 12 Honorable Mention selection for two-straight years.

Jill Dorsey, a 2004 graduate, led the Big 12 in her se-nior season with a scorching 4.64 digs per game and left KU as the all-time career digs leader (1,338), until Melissa Manda took over as the all-time digs leader in 2010 (1,457).

Michaels concluded her KU career as the program’s leader in attack percentage (.317) and finished sec second behind Reves in block assists (324) and blocks per game (1.03). Bechard came to KU after spending 13 years as the head coach at Barton County Commu-nity College in Great Bend, Kan.

Bechard All-Time After a stellar coaching career at BCCC, Bechard was in-

ducted into the National Junior College Athletic Associa-tion Volleyball Hall of Fame in 1998.

In 13 seasons at Barton County, Bechard posted a career record of 716-60 (.923 winning percentage) and coached 23 Academic All-Americans. He completed his career at BCCC with the highest all-time winning percentage among junior college/community college coaches and ranked fourth all-time with 716 career wins.

Twice (1990 and 1993) Bechard was named the American Volleyball Coaches Association National Junior College Coach of the Year, and he was selected the AVCA District IV Coach of the Year 12 times.

In 1995, he was an assistant coach for the USA Volley-ball Youth National Team which won the Slovakian Cup Championship in Zilina, Slovakia. Bechard, who was the only non-Division I coach on the staff, coached alongside TCU’s Sandy Troudt and Penn State assistant Erin Tomb-lin. The team competed against youth teams from Poland and Slovakia.

Bechard began his coaching career when he served three years (1980-83) as head coach of the girls’ volleyball team and the boys’ basketball team at Lewis High School in Lewis, Kan. The first sign of his coaching talent was evi-

He was also a member of the board of directors of the AVCA from 1992-98 and has present-ed at the AVCA National Convention on two different occasions. Bechard was also president of the NJCAA Volleyball Coaches Association from 1989-92.

A native of Grinnell, Kan., Bechard played basketball at Barton County, where he helped the Cougars to a 45-13 record in his two seasons there.

Following his junior college playing career, Bechard attended Fort Hays State University where he gradu-ated with a bachelor’s degree in physical education in 1980. Two years later, he received his master’s degree in physical education from Fort Hays State.

The Kansas native is married to the former Pamela Brown and they have two children. Their daughter, now Ashley Henkelman, was a KU letterwinner in vol-leyball from 2001-04. Ashley’s husband, Erik, joined the family in 2011. The couple’s son, Brennan, played on the Kansas men’s basketball team from 2007-09, and now holds a position on the Kansas men’s bas-ketball staff.

Former Ball State standout player Todd Chamberlain enters his second season as an assistant coach at the University of Kansas in 2011.

At KU, Chamberlain works with the Jayhawks’ outside attackers and serves as the team’s video coordinator and alumni contact, while assisting with recruitment.

Chamberlain arrived at Kansas following a one-year stint as the volunteer assistant women’s coach at the University of Kentucky, during which the Wildcats experienced one of the most successful seasons in program history. In 2009, Kentucky finished 29-5 overall, appeared in the NCAA Tournament for the fifth-consecutive year and advanced to the Sweet 16 for the first time since 1992.

While at UK, three players earned All-America honors, including honorable mention outside hitter Sarah Mendoza. Under Chamberlain’s guidance, Mendoza finished the season as the Southeastern Conference leader with 4.12 kps.

Chamberlain played volleyball for four seasons at Ball State University, where he earned first-team All-Midwestern Intercollegiate Volleyball Association (MIVA) honors as a senior after pacing the squad with 3.29 kills per set. Ball State was nationally ranked for portions of all four of Chamberlain’s seasons; the Cardinals compiled a 78-39 (.667) record during those years.

No stranger to the coaching sidelines, Chamberlain has guided several teams to national and state titles. For two seasons Chamberlain worked as an assistant coach under Steve Shondell for Burris High School in Muncie, Ind. The Burris squad captured the 2-A state championship in both 2008 and 2009. Chamberlain also worked with Mike Lingerfelter as an assistant coach for the Munciana Samurai 18-1 Club team. That squad went on to capture not only the 2009 AAU national championship, but also the 2009 JVDA national championship.

In addition to his collegiate playing career, Chamberlain was a left side attacker on the 2006 Youth National team that played internationally in Cabo Frio, Brazil. In 2007, Chamberlain was a left side attacker for the Junior National training team that practiced at the Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colo.

Chamberlain has served as a camp counselor for camps at Kentucky, Purdue and his alma mater. Additionally, Chamberlain has instructed at elite camps hosted by Saint Louis and the Kentucky-Indiana Volleyball Association (KIVA).

Chamberlain, a native of Louisville, Ky., graduated in 2009 from Ball State with a bachelor’s degree in communications. He began his volleyball career as a star-athlete at Louisville’s Trinity High School.

Former Georgia Tech standout Laura Kuhn was named a volleyball assistant coach for the University of Kansas on March 22, 2011.

A four-year letterwinner at Georgia Tech from 2001-04, Kuhn comes to Kansas after spending three years as an assistant at Miami from 2008-10. She has also made coaching stops as an assistant coach at Appalachian State and Florida State.

While on staff with the Hurricanes, UM advanced to the NCAA Tournament two of the three seasons (2009 & 2010) Kuhn was on staff. It marked the second and third tournament berths since the program was brought back in 2001.

At Miami, Kuhn, affectionately known as ̀ Bird,’ was instrumental in coaching outside hitter Lane Carico, who became the program’s first-ever AVCA All-American in 2010. One season earlier, Carico and Cassie Loessberg were named honorable mention All-Americans under Kuhn’s guidance.

In 2008, she helped in the Hurricanes posting their best overall record (26-6) since 2002, and the best Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) record in school history going 14-6 in league play. Defensively, the Hurricanes posted the highest digs total (1,958) for a single-season in 2008, while also registering the highest digs per set count in UM history (16.88).

Kuhn arrived at Miami after a stint as assistant coach at FSU during the 2008 spring season. Prior to her time at Florida State, Kuhn was an assistant at Appalachian State. In 2007 with the Mountaineers, Kuhn coached the Southern Conference Player of the Year, Brittany Zahn, and worked under Matt Ginipro, who was the SoCon Coach of the Year after Appalachian State finished 14-2.

The two previous years, Kuhn spent coaching A5 Club teams in Atlanta as the head coach of a team consisting of 17-year-olds in 2006 and as an assistant with the 14-year-old club in 2005.

During her time at Georgia Tech, the Yellow Jackets won three ACC regular season championships, one ACC tournament title and advanced to the NCAA Tournament four-straight years. The teams advanced to the Sweet 16 and Elite Eight in 2003 and 2004, respectively. Kuhn played the right side position her final three years at Georgia Tech, starting all three seasons.

“I have come to love coaching primarily because of the one-on-one relationships you build with aspiring athletes. Nothing is more rewarding than watching a young athlete develop new skills and progress in the sport.

I also value the similarities between coaching and teaching because it reminds me of the coaches who have made an impact on my life, on and off the court.”

Dr. SheahonZengersecond season

Director ofAthleticsDr. Sheahon (SHAY-un) Zenger is a coach at heart. But when KU Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little introduced the Hays, Kan., native as KU’s Athletics Director January 3, 2011, he promised not to call any plays for the coaches. That doesn’t mean, though, that he won’t be right there with them - and their student-athletes - every step of the way. For it’s his genuine care for coaches and student-athletes that has stamped his career in intercollegiate athletics.

Zenger came to KU after serving for five years as athletics director at Illinois State University, helping steer ISU Athletics to a place of prominence in the Missouri Valley Conference. The Redbirds won a conference-leading seven league titles during the 2009-10 season and captured their second Valley All-Sports Trophy in three years.

ISU’s Weisbecker Scholarship Fund membership grew 65 percent during his tenure, and capital projects boomed. The Illinois State Baseball Stadium at Duffy Bass Field was officially dedicated in May 2009 to culminate the completion of that $3.5 million project. In addition, funding for the Redbird Arena locker room improvements was secured.

With experience as an educator, coach, fundraiser and administrator, Zenger brought a plan to Illinois State, and with the help of the head coaches and administrative staff, personalized that strategic plan for Redbird Athletics. As a result, the athletics department saw record-high grade-point averages (GPA) in each of the last four years, including a best-ever department-wide 3.13 GPA in fall 2009. Redbird student-athletes now regularly carry a GPA of 3.0 or better. ISU student-athletes have also contributed more than 2,000 hours of community service in each of the last five years, including 3,500 hours during the 2009-10 athletic season.

In addition to Valley All-Sports titles in 2008 and 2010, in his last three years at ISU Zenger led the department to 16 top-five finishes in its 17 Valley sports - the highest percentage of top-five finishers in league history.

Zenger secured a five-year apparel contract for Redbird Athletics, and significantly increased the marketing of the program in the Central Illinois region, most notably with a campaign centered on the award-winning marketing campaign “Spread the Red.” He also witnessed record-setting attendance figures in football, men’s basketball and women’s basketball, while seeing 17 Redbird teams advance to postseason play.

In the beginning, Zenger wasn’t headed toward a career in administration. He was nine years old when he told his father he wanted to be a coach, and it didn’t take long for that dream to materialize. After playing football at Fort Hays State and Mid-American Nazarene College, he finished his undergraduate degree at Kansas State. Even before he received his bachelor’s degree in English and secondary education in 1988, Zenger was assisting the football coaches at Manhattan (Kan.) High School. His first college football coaching job came at Drake University right after graduation.

In 1989, at age 23, Zenger joined Bill Snyder’s staff at Kansas State

as one of the nation’s youngest full-time football staff members; he served in key roles as assistant recruiting coordinator and director of football operations. Zenger completed his master’s degree in journalism and mass communication in 1992 while helping Snyder bring Wildcat football to unprecedented success.

It became evident, though, that more than coaching was in store for Zenger. He sought advice from then-KU Chancellor Gene Budig, who convinced him to pursue a Ph.D. at KU. As he completed his Ph.D. in educational policy and leadership (1996), Zenger contributed communications and special projects support to the office of the executive vice-chancellor, Ed Meyen, and wrote the professional life history of then-chancellor Del Shankel, while strengthening his understanding of university leadership at the highest levels.

While focusing his attention on academics, he managed to stay involved in the world of intercollegiate athletics, and specifically football. ‘Involved’ may be an understatement. In 1993 Zenger and a friend founded American Football Quarterly, a magazine for coaches. Zenger served as publisher - and then editor - until 1995, when he sold his share of the by-then-thriving magazine.

Still, coaching stayed in his blood. After earning his doctorate, Zenger in 1996 signed on as the recruiting coordinator for the brand-new NCAA Division I football program at the University of South Florida. A year later he joined the University of Wyoming football staff as recruiting coordinator and within two years rose to assistant head coach, a position he still considers one of the crowning achievements of his career.

Zenger stayed at Wyoming through the 2000 season before returning to Kansas State.

2010: Year in Reviewby Matt Franzblau, KU Media RelationsEven though the 2010 KU women’s volleyball team won’t be playing in December, Ray Bechard’s team has to consider the season gone by as nothing but a success.

First and foremost, the squad won more games (17) than it has in the past six seasons. The last time the Crimson and Blue volleyball squad reached the 17-win plateau was 2004, when 19 wins were good enough to propel the team into the second round of the NCAA tournament.

“Ultimately our goal was to get to the NCAA tour-nament, so if you measure the success of the year against that obviously we were a little bit disap-pointed,” said Coach Bechard. “I think you have to be careful to surmise the entire season based on one of your goals because there were a lot of great things that happened.”

One of those highlights came early on in the non-conference schedule in Omaha, Neb., at the Creigh-ton Blue Jay Invitational. There, Bechard’s crew would win their first two matches against Lipscomb and San Francisco and then take the final one over host and eventual NCAA tournament team Creigh-ton, 3-1.

Another big ‘W’ came on Sept. 29, as the Jayhawks battled with archrival Missouri. The game was televised and played in front of a sellout crowd inside the Horejsi Family Athletic Center where the Jayhawks disposed of the Tigers in four sets, 25-21, 25-20, 24-26, 25-21. At the time, Bechard called his team’s performance, “The best night offensively we’ve had all season.”

Beating Texas A&M both at home and on the road were two more substantial victories that Bechard points to, as well as the Oct. 9 win over No. 10 Iowa State at Horejsi. The upset of the Cyclones was the first win over a top-10 team in program history.

“We played a competitive non-conference sched-

ule,” Bechard said. “We beat five teams that were in the NCAA tournament and two that made it to the Sweet 16. There were four teams from the Big 12 still standing after the first round (Texas, Missouri, Oklahoma and Nebraska), so that obviously goes along with what we already knew, we play in a really competitive conference.”

With its exciting victory over Oklahoma in Norman on the season’s final day, KU garnered some consid-eration for the team’s first tournament appearance in five years.

“When you beat a team like that, it’s so disappoint-ing,” Bechard said. “You’re playing so well at the end of the year and you’re not able to continue to compete, but the players returning got a very good indication of what level we have to play at and how hard it is.”

Looking at some of those players’ seasons, senior Melissa Manda put her stamp on the KU volleyball program by becoming the school’s all-time digs leader. Her 292 digs this season put her in first place with a total of 1,457, surpassing Jill (Dorsey) Hall who held the record for six seasons with 1,338.

“When you’ve dug more balls in the history of a pro-gram, that’s pretty special,” Bechard said. “She’s been on the floor for us a ton during the last four years, so I think that speaks volumes about Melissa’s attitude and effort.”

“It makes me feel really special,” Manda said. “Just having an opportunity to play all four years and to know that my name will be up there until someone else knocks it down is pretty amazing.”

Senior Karina Garlington was recognized for her play by being named All-Big 12 Honorable Mention. The Denver, Colo., native finished the season with an average of 3.51 kills per set and is second in program history with 1,309 kills.

“Garlington had a tremendous career here,” Bechard

said. “She was named AVCA National Player of the Week last year as well as Big 12 Player of the Week. We thought she got better in her blocking and some of her releases off the net, so she wasn’t just a one dimensional player. We’ll definitely miss her athleti-cism.”

Bechard logged his 200th victory as KU head coach in a match that his Jayhawks took in five sets over Texas A&M on Sept. 18. Bechard is the all-time win-ningest KU volleyball coach, a title he claimed back in the 2007 season when he passed Frankie Albitz (1985-1993), with his 151st career win.

“It’s great to have coached here that long,” Bechard said. “When you take a job, you never know what it’s going to bring, so to have the opportunity to be here long enough to win 200 matches, that’s significant.”

Bechard and the Jayhawks look toward 2011 with much promise. That’s because they will return a seasoned upper class with Lauren Hagan, Allison Mayfield and Nicole Tate assuming a larger leader-ship role as the squad’s seniors next season.

Bechard’s junior class will have another year under their belt and will return two players, including

middle blocker Tayler Tolefree and defensive specialist Morgan Boub.

The 10-member sophomore squad will be led by libero Brianne Riley, who dug the eighth-most balls in a Jayhawk single-season with 403, fol-lowed by fellow defensive specialist Jaime Mat -hieu, outside hitters Marianne Beal, Amy Wehrs, setters Erin McNorton and Kara Wehrs as well as middle blockers Jessie Allen and Caroline Jar-moc.

“We will lose a lot on the outside with Jenna (Kaiser) and Karina (Garlington), but we’ve signed a couple of kids that we’re excited about,” said Coach Bechard. “We’ve also got some play-ers in the program that we feel can step up and make added contributions next season. Now we’re just working hard to get the program to another level where we’re a consistent per-former in the Big 12 Conference and the NCAA tournament.”
