6th Year at eMU - eastern Michigan ‘80

head coach

sUe Parks

A familiar face returned to direct the Eastern Michigan University women’s track and field and cross country programs in 2006.

Sue Parks, a former EMU track great, a member of the EMU Ath-letic Hall of Fame and the daugh-ter of legendary men’s track coach Bob Parks, was named the head coach for the women’s track and field and women’s cross country teams by EMU Athletics Director Derrick Gragg on July 27, 2006.

“We are very excited to have someone with the outstanding track background of Sue Parks join our staff as the head women’s track and field and cross country coach,” Gragg said, when naming Parks. “Sue has been a champion, both as a collegiate runner and as a coach, on the track and field and cross country national level. She has developed top programs at every stage of her coaching career, and we are confident that her coaching success will continue here at Eastern Michigan Univer-sity.”

Last season, Parks captured the MAC Indoor Track Championship, as well as being named the the Coach of the Year for the indoor season. It was her ninth career Coach of the Year award after tak-ing eight at Ball State.

Currently, Parks serves as and at-large representative of the NCAA Men’s and Women’s Cross Country Coaches Association Executive Committee, which is in charge of all NCAA cross country proposals.

Prior to returning to EMU as the head coach of the women’s track program, Parks enjoyed tremen-dous success in a 12-year tenure at Ball State from 1994-2006, win-ning eight Mid-American Confer-ence titles and finishing runner-

up 10 times in track and cross country. She was named MAC Women’s Coach of the Year a total of eight times, four for indoor track (1996,1998,2001), four for outdoor track (1996, 1998, 2000, 2001) and one for cross country (2003). In addition, she was selected as an NCAA Regional Coach of the Year in indoor and outdoor track in 1998. Her 2002 cross country team became just the third MAC team to ever qualify for the NCAA Champi-onship when it accomplished the feat in 2002.

From 1990-94 she was an assis-tant cross country and track coach for both the men’s and women’s programs at the University of Ari-zona. Her UA women’s cross coun-try squads placed 11th, 14th, and 12th at the NCAA Championship in

head COaCh sue PaRks


1991, 1992 and 1993, respectively. Her 1993 cross country team won the NCAA District 8 championship.

She was also named NCAA District 8 Coach of the Year after the 1993 cross country season. During her tenure at Arizona she coached seven All-Americans in women’s cross country and track, in-cluding the 1994 5,000-meter champion in the NCAA indoor track championship.

Before heading to Arizona, Parks was the head women’s cross country coach and as-sistant women’s track coach at Michigan State University from 1988-90. She was gradu-ate assistant coach for the EMU men’s track team from 1987-88.

From 1984-87, she was the wom-en’s head cross country coach and women’s assistant track coach

at the University of Michi-gan. She coached eight All-Americans in cross country and was selected as Big Ten Conference Women’s Cross Country Coach of the Year in 1986. Her other coaching stints include serving as the head women’s track coach at Ann Arbor Gabriel Richard in 1982 and the head women’s cross country coach at Ann Arbor Huron High School from 1979-83.

Parks is certainly no strang-er to EMU and the Ypsilanti area. She was raised in Ypsi-lanti and attended Ypsilanti High School where she was an outstanding cross coun-try and track competitor. She

was a Michigan high school cham-pion and former record holder in the 800 meters and also competed for the United States in the Pan American Games.

Parks went on to graduate from EMU with a bachelor’s degree in 1980 and a master’s degree in 1988. While an undergraduate, Parks was a MAC cross country invitational champion in 1976, 1977 and 1978 and was also an Olympic Trials qualifier. She was elected to the EMU Athletic Hall of Fame in 1992. Her father, Bob Parks, was the head men’s track and field and head men’s cross country coach at EMU for 34 years, from 1967-2000.

assisTanT COaCh ZaCh Glavash

Zach Glavash, a former University of Illinois and Texas Tech track and field All-American, has been named assistant women’s track and field coach at Eastern Michigan Univer-sity, Head Coach Sue Parks announced Tuesday, Sept. 13.

“After talking to some of the top coaches in the na-tion about who would be a great fit for our assistant position, Zach Glavash was

the one name that emerged,” said coach Parks. “I feel that Zach is going to help propel our already strong sprint/hurdle/jump group to a new level. Not only was Zach an elite athlete, he has also been a part of championship teams as a coach. He wants to win championships and take our athletes to the very highest level. I am excited to bring him to EMU.”

Glavash joins the EMU women’s track and field staff full time after recently serving as a volunteer coach for the Aggies of Texas A&M University from 2010 until being hired by Eastern. From 2007-2010 he was a graduate assistant coach for the Texas Tech Red Raiders track and field team and assisted the Red Raiders’ football team as a speed consultant.

In all, Glavash has four seasons of Division I coaching experi-

ence, including coaching five NCAA National Champions and one Olympic Silver Medalist.

A 2007 graduate of Texas Tech University, Glavash enjoyed an outstanding career at both the University of Illinois and as a Red Raider. Prior to transferring to Texas Tech, Glavash was a three-time Big Ten Champion, as well as a 2005 Division I All-American in the 800-meter dash. He was a 2004 Big Ten Sportsmanship Honoree, as well as an ESPN Academic All-District award winner in that same year. The two-time George Huff Award recipient was a Dike Eddelman Award Finalist and Academic All-Midwest Region recipient in 2005.

Upon joining the Red Raiders track & field team, he was named a team captain and was the 2007 Big 12 800-meter Champion. Glavash was also a two-time All-American in the 800-meter. The 2007 NCAA Mountain West Region Athlete of the Year was a two-time Academic All-American and Academic All-Big 12 member.

After finishing his undergraduate degree in human develop-ment, Glavash pursued a Master of Science degree in Exercise and Sport Science from Texas Tech University. His concentra-tion was in Exercise Phiysiology and Biomechanics and he earned his masters degree in May of 2010.

The 27-year-old Glavash (6-14-84) is a native of Chillicothe, Ill. and graduated from Illinois Valley Central High School. He is the son of Dave and Becky Glavash and has a twin sister, Elissa, who was a cheerleader at the University of Illinois.

The 2011-12 Eastern Michigan Women’s Track & Field Team


assisTanT COaCh JeRel lanGley

The 2011-12 season marks the second season that Jerel Langley will serve as an assistant coach to Sue Parks with the women’s track and field program.

Langley is no stranger to coaching, having previously coached

at Kennesaw State. In his two years there, he served as the recruiting coordinator as well as direct coach for the multis, pole vault and jav-elin. Between 2009 and 2010, Langley coached 15 All-Atlantic Sun performers, saw 12 school records broken, and had five conference cham-pions respectively. Langley also saw 15 Atlantic Sun All-Academic members under his guidance. In the 2009-10 season, Langley was a part of a KSU men’s program that captured the Atlantic Sun Triple Crown.

Originally from Cumming, Ga., Langley at-tended Roswell High School before ultimately graduating from North Forsyth. He attended Gardner-Webb University in North Carolina, where he graduated with a degree in Sports Management, and competed on the Track and Field team. Although he began his career as a Decathlete, he switched his focus to Javelin during his junior year.

While at Gardner-Webb, Langley was a two-time East Regional qualifier and finalist in the javelin, named to the 2008 All-East Region team, was a three time Atlantic Sun Conference Champion, and a 2008 Academic All-American.

In addition to being a certified Level I Track and Field Coach, Langley comes from a family of coaches, with his brother Josh coaching at UNC-Chapel Hill, while his father is a high school coach in Georgia.


2011-12 eMu TRaCk & field seasOn OuTlOOk

The Eastern Michigan University women’s track and field team is coming off an ex-tremely successful season after winning the 2011 Indoor MAC Championships by 29 points and placing second as a team at the 2011 Outdoor MAC Championships, finish-ing behind Kent State by just a single point. Head Coach Sue Parks’ returns a plethora of athletes from the 2010-11 campaign and has a team poised to make another run at a MAC Championship in both the indoor and outdoor seasons this year.

SPRINTERS

Shantavia Williams was a 2011 All-MAC First Team selection after placing third in the 400-meter dash at the Indoor MAC Champi-onships and winning the 400-meter at the Outdoor MAC Championships with a new stadium record of 54.70. Joining Williams as a re-turning leader in the sprint area is Asia Rawls. Rawls captured the 400 meter hurdles crown at the 2011 Outdoor Championships and helped the Eagles to a pair of championships last year at the indoor and out-door meets in the 4x400-meter relays. Rounding out the outstanding group of returning sprinters are Re-Jeana Margina and Rosie White. Marigna was the 2010 MAC Champion in the 60 meter dash and White has been a consistent MAC scorer for the Eagles in the long jump, 200, and 400 relay. New to the sprints core are freshmen Danielle Clark and Kim Wedderburn, who will look to make an impact for the Eagles this season. Clark has run internationally for her native country of Suriname.

HURDLES

Senior Ashley Wartley looks to lead a team of hurdlers into the 2011-12 season after win-ning a pair of races in the 60-meter hurdles last season. The Ypsilanti, Mich. native had a career-best 8.69 in the 60-meter event when she placed third at the Silverston Invitational. Shante Jackson will accompany Wartley in the hurdling crew. She looks to improve after having a solid showing in her freshman

campaign. Combined event athlete Kate Wolanin will also add depth to the short hurdles group. Rawls, the defending MAC Champion in the 400-meter hurdles, is the key returner in the long hurdles.

MIDDLE DISTANCES

Beverly Elcock and Morgan Churchwell lead the returning Eagles in the middle distance races for the 2011-12 campaign. Elcock, who won indoor and outdoor MAC Championships in the 800-meter run during the 2010 season had a strong return from a redshirt year in 2011. She had multiple top five finishes in middle distance races last season including a second place finish in both the 800-meter and the distance med-ley relay at the MAC Indoor Championships. Churchwell, a junior, has been a solid indoor

and outdoor MAC scorer for the Eagles the past two seasons and is coming off an excel-lent cross country season. Freshman Brooke Sciullo and senior Natalie Webb add depth to the middle distance area for the Green and White this year.

LoNG DISTANCES

The Eagles return a surplus of runners in the distance events including seniors Cassie Coffman and Amber Hutson. Also returning for the Eagles will be juniors Courtney Calka, Tiffany Kincaid, Lauren Lunsford and Rachel Quaintance. Calka set EMU records in the 5000 meters and distance medley (indoors) and the 3000 meter steeplechase

(outdoors). She was also one of two EMU athletes that earned All-MAC honors in cross country for the 2011 season. The other All-MAC performer for the Eagles was freshman Victoria Voronko who will put her distance running on display for EMU for the first time on the track for the Green and White. Cara Smock is the other freshman to join the Eagles track team this season.

JUMPS

Senior Rosie White will head the jumpers for the Eagles as she had a top-five finish at both the Indoor and Outdoor MAC Champi-onships last season as well as qualifying for the first round of the NCAA Championships. White took third in the long jump at the indoors while finishing fourth in the same event at the outdoor meet. The Eagles’ added

Tatijana Jacobson who finished second in the 2011 Outdoor Championships in the high jump. Jacobson transferred to EMU after two years at Bowling Green State University. The pole vault group is looking to fill the void left by school record-holder and All-American Jessica Hemingway but re-turn Meghan Powers who made great improvements last season. Joining Powers will be the 2011 Michigan State Division-I champion, Jennifer Schornak, while Reagan Briggs will add depth to the core of vault-ers. Rejoining the Eagles for their sophomore campaign are Christina Coffman, Ti-

ara oates and Kate Wolanin, while they add freshman Ebony Mundy, who was a state and regional qualifier in the long jump.

THRoWS

The lone senior thrower, Angela Scarber will take charge for the Eagles’ throwers this season. Scarber most recently set an Eastern Michigan University indoor record when she notched a 17.38-meter toss in the weight throw, Dec. 9, 2011 at the Eagles/Rocket Holiday Meet. Scarber is joined by junior Shanilinin Calderon, as well as a pair of freshmen in Lydia Gomez Diaz, a decorated hammer thrower from Spain, and Adrienne Waisner.

The Eagles won the 2011 Indoor MAC Championship

EASTERN MICHIGAN UNIVERSITY


Enrollment Profile With nearly 23,000 students, EMU provides a rich learning environment for the university community. The University currently has approximately 18,000 undergraduates and 5,000 graduate students. Our students represent 45 states and 93 foreign coun-tries. Of undergraduate students, 72 percent are full time and 57 percent are women. The most popular majors are education, business, social sciences and history, science and engineering, English, and the health professions. EMU’s undergraduate population is approximately 65 percent white; 21 percent black; 2 percent international; 2.5 percent Asian-American; 2 percent Hispanic, 0.5 percent Native-American, and 7 percent not answered (i.e. elected not to respond to this inquiry). Eastern Michigan offers a number of special academic programs to help students succeed. These include the Honors College; the Holman Learn-ing Center; distance learning; accelerated format programs; online, weekend and evening programs and courses; American Humanics certification; the World College Study Abroad Tours; a specialized master’s degree program for corporations offered on site; a double master’s degree; online technologies for education and training through the Centers for Corporate Training; and EMU Worldwide. With more than 200 academic and social orga-nizations, an extensive intramural sports program, 21 NCAA Division I-A sports and numerous cultural activities from which to choose, EMU students have diverse opportunities to become involved in campus life. Students’ on-campus housing choices range from traditional dormitory-style rooms to apart-ments and include living/learning center options.

Where We’re Located Eastern Michigan University is located in historic Ypsilanti, seven miles east of Ann Arbor, 40 miles west of Detroit and just 20 minutes from Detroit Metropolitan Airport. It is an area rich in academic, research, technological and recreational resources. The University also has sites in Livonia, Jackson, Traverse City, Flint, Detroit and Monroe. EMU’s 800 plus-acre main campus of scenic flora and wooded areas includes 18 miles of walkways and jogging trails and has 122 buildings throughout the academic and athletic campuses. Eagle Crest – Eastern Michigan’s conference center, golf course and resort – is located on the banks of nearby Ford Lake. Recently named “A Cool City,” by Michigan’s Governor Jennifer Granholm, Ypsilanti plays a leading role in industry and education. The city and the University have forged close ties that have lasted 160 years.

What Makes Us Unique In 1849, with the passage of Act No. 138, the Senate and House of Representatives of the State of Michigan formally paved the way for the establishment of Michigan State Normal School, with the exclu-sive purposes of instructing persons in the art of teaching; providing a good common school education; and giving instruction in the mechanic arts, husbandry, agricultural chemistry and the laws of the United States. Since its inception, Eastern Michigan, first as a Normal School, then as a College and finally as a Uni-versity, has grown and developed to respond to the ever-changing needs of society. Over the years, EMU has educated thousands of sons and daughters of Michigan, the nation, and the world. The University currently serves nearly 22,000 students who are pursuing undergraduate, graduate, specialist, doctoral and certificate degrees in the arts, sciences and professions. In all, more than 200 majors, minors and concentrations are delivered through the University’s Colleges of Arts and Sciences; Business; Education; Health and Human Services; Technology, and its graduate school. Eastern Michigan’s exceptional faculty, students and alumni include CEOs from major businesses; a National Student Teacher of the Year, National Teacher of the Year, numerous Fulbright Scholars and Milken Family Foundation National Educators award winners; and several Michigan Teachers of the Year. EMU is regularly recognized by national publications for its excellence, diversity, and commitment to applied education.

Faculty/Staff Eastern Michigan University employs 689 full-time faculty and 1,100 staff members. Ninety-four percent of EMU professors have doctoral degrees or terminal degrees in their field. The student to faculty ratio is 19:1. Faculty work closely with students, and many involve students in their research. In 2009, the Uni-versity celebrated its 29th annual Undergraduate Symposium; a benchmark program for undergradu-ate research.

Community outreach Eastern Michigan is making an impact nationally by channeling its academic research as a means of solving real-world problems. EMU currently has 14 research institutes and centers that focus on com-munity building and civic engagement, quality, com-munity and regional development, small business development, geospatial education, textiles, export assistance and product development. EMU is well known for merging theory and practice for the benefit of the community. Applied research leads to new knowledge, new jobs and new business. Annually, the university receives about $15 million in revenues for sponsored research and community service activities.

The Alumni Association Representing more than 142,000 alumni and friends, the Alumni Association sponsors social and service-related programs for more than 20 geographically-based and special-interest alumni chapters.

EMU’s Economic Impact Since its founding in 1849, Eastern Michigan has provided quality services to the residents of Ypsilanti, Washtenaw County, the State of Michigan and other states and nations. EMU’s total impact on the Michigan economy of an estimated $3 billion annually reflects a return of more than $30 for each dollar received from the state. The University’s total impact on the Michigan economy results in a contribution of $115 million in state tax revenue. Thus, EMU’s impact on state government tax revenue is $1.25 in taxes for each dollar received from the state.

Mission Statement Eastern Michigan University is com-mitted to excellence in teaching through traditional and innovative approaches, the extension of knowledge through basic and applied research, and creative and artistic expression. Building on a proud tradition of na-tional leadership in the preparation of teach-ers, we maximize educational opportunities and personal and professional growth for students from diverse backgrounds through an array of baccalaureate, master’s and doc-

toral programs. We strive to provide a student-focused learning environment that enhances the lives of students and positively impacts the community. We extend our commitment beyond the campus boundaries to the wider community through service initiatives, and public and private partnerships of mutual interest addressing local, regional, national and international opportunities and challenges.

our History When the state of Michigan was just 12 years old, Michigan State Normal School was designated by the state legislature as the first institution to educate teachers to serve the public schools. The University thus began, somewhat humbly, as the sixth teacher education institution in the nation. A campus that today comprises more than 800 acres was once a four-acre plot with one building and two programs of study – a classical course and an English Course. The school’s name has changed several times – to Michigan State Normal College in 1899; to Eastern Michigan College in 1956; and finally to Eastern Michigan University in 1959. During its first 100 years, the institution certified thousands of teachers and developed the broad-based curricula that ultimately prepared it for university status. Within that new university, three colleges emerged: Education, Arts and Sciences and the Graduate School. The University has since expanded three more times; adding the College of Business in 1964, the College of Health and Human Services in 1975 and the College of Technology in 1980. More recently Eastern Michigan has developed Extended Programs that include Continuing Education, the Centers for Corporate Training, the World College and numerous community-focused institutes. The University has enhanced its learning environment through structural initiatives during the past several years. Recent construction includes the Terrestrial and Aquatic Research Facility (1998), the Convocation Center (1998), the Bruce T. Halle Library (1998), the John W. Porter College of Educa-tion Building (1999), the Everett L. Marshall College of Health and Human Services Building (2000), the Village residence hall (2001), University House (2003) and the Student Center (2006).

The City of Ypsilanti Ypsilanti is a city in Washtenaw County with a population of 22,362. Originally a trading post established in 1809 by Gabriel Godfroy, a French-Canadian fur trader from Montreal, a permanent settlement was established on the east side of the Huron River in 1823 by Major Thomas Woodruff. It was incorporated into the Territory of Michigan as the village Woodruff’s Grove. A separate com-munity a short distance away on the west side of the river was established in 1825 under the name “Ypsilanti”, after Demetrius Ypsilanti, a hero in the Greek War of Independence. Woodruff’s Grove changed its name to Ypsilanti in 1829, and the two communities eventually merged. Henry Ford and the automotive industry came to Ypsilanti in the 1930s and beautiful Ford Lake was created to generate hydroelectric power for the manufacturing plants. During World War II, Ypsilanti became home to the Willow Run Bomber Plant, a factory that would employ 100,000 work-ers.

During her inaugural address Martin set fourth an ambitious vision for the university. The goals included build-

ing on the pillars of academic excellence, refreshing alumni relationships, comprehensive fundraising and earning the public’s trust. Under Martin’s guid-ance in 2008, EMU was again recognized as a “Best Midwestern College” by The Princeton Review for the sixth straight year. Additionally, for the fifth consecutive year, The Princeton Review recognized Eastern’s College of Business as one of the “Best 296 Busi-ness Schools” in the nation. Eastern Michigan also was awarded a 2009 Michigan Historic Preservation Net-work’s (MHPN) Government/Institutional Award for its preservation of the Univer-sity’s core historic campus. Prior to coming to EMU, Mar-tin was the provost and vice-chancellor of academic affairs at the University of Michigan-

Dearborn. The majority of Martin’s higher edu-cation career was at Grand Valley State University, where she taught and pub-lished as a professor of accounting and taxation. Martin served as director of the master of taxation program, direc-tor of international business programs, and chair of the accounting and taxa-

tion department. In June 2001, Martin joined the GVSU provost’s office and served in roles as assistant, associate, and executive asso-ciate vice president of academic affairs. One of her major duties in that office was to help manage the $154 million budget for the Academic Affairs Divi-sion.

Eastern continued to excel in 2009-10 with a trio of MAC team titles, 30 individual MAC Championships and 60 student-athletes named to the All-MAC teams. Gragg also helped spearhead the construction of EMU’s $3.9 million multi-purpose indoor athletic practice facility located near the north end of Rynearson Stadium.

The EMU Athletic Club provides vital financial support to more than 550 student-athletes at Eastern Michigan University as they strive for excellence on the court and in the classroom. Nearly 1,000 donors generously supported our outstanding scholar-athletes each year. Established in 1994, the EMU Athletic Club raises funds in three key areas for EMU’s 21 varsity athletic teams: annual-use operating funds, endowment, and facility related projects. Today, annual-use giving is the most critical area of support needed by the Athletic Department. These contributions directly support the operating budgets of our teams and help provide the most basic needs to our coaches and student-athletes, including comprehen-sive national recruiting efforts, out of region travel to maintain nationally competitive schedules, equipment such as uniforms, balls, nets, bats, and much more. Gifts to any of our teams, or to the Eagles for Excel-lence Fund (which will be used for the most urgent needs of the athletic department), are an investment in the future leaders of the state of Michigan. Join the EMU Athletic Club today and make a difference for EMU Athletics.

The Eastern Michigan University Office of Athletics Compliance is committed to a com-prehensive compliance program that educates student-athletes, prospective student-athletes, institutional employees, community members and boosters about the importance of adhering to NCAA, Mid-American Conference and institu-tional rules. The commitment to compliance en-sures institutional control over the department of athletics. The existence of a successful com-pliance program depends on the willingness of coaches, administrators, staff, student-athletes and boosters to be cognizant of NCAA, MAC and institutional rules.

WHAT IS CoMPLIANCE? At Eastern Michigan University, the Office of Compliance works within the department of athletics and the University to ensure EMU’s compliance with all applicable NCAA, MAC and institutional rules. In doing so, the compliance office is charged with the following tasks:

Educating administrators, coaches, staff, •prospective student-athletes, current stu-dent-athletes and boosters about NCAA, MAC and institutional rules;Developing monitoring systems to ensure •compliance with NCAA, MAC and institu-tional rules (e.g., recruiting, academic eli-gibility, financial aid, awards and benefits, amateurism and agents);Investigating and reporting violations of •NCAA, MAC and institutional rules.

ARE YoU A BooSTER? You are a booster if you are or ever have:

Been a member of a booster organization •that supports EMU athletics (e.g., EMU Ath-letic Club, E-Gridiron Group);Made any financial contributions to the •athletics department;Been involved in promoting EMU’s athlet-•ics program;Been a season ticket holder; or•Provided benefits to enrolled student-ath-•letes or their relatives or friends.

You can become a booster if you provide ben-efits to prospects, student-athletes, their rela-tives or friends and any of the following state-ments are true:

The relationship between the athlete (or •parents of the athlete) and the individual providing the benefits developed as a re-sult of the athlete’s participation in athlet-ics or their reputation as an athlete;The relationship began only after the ath-•lete become a prospect;The relationship began only after the ath-•lete had achieved notoriety due to his or her athletic ability or reputation;The pattern of benefits increased after the •athlete attained notoriety as a talented athlete.

oNCE A BooSTER ALWAYS A BooSTER. Once an individual is identified as a booster, the person retains that identity forever! This is true even if the individual no longer contributes to, or is involved with, EMU’s athletics program.

WHo IS A PRoSPECTIVE STUDENT-ATHLETE? A prospective student-athlete (prospect) is a student who has started classes for the ninth grade, students enrolled in preparatory schools and two-year colleges are also considered pros-pects. An individual remains a prospect even after he/she signs a National Letter of Intent.

WHAT IS AN EXTRA BENEFIT? An extra benefit is any special arrangement by a EMU employee or booster to provide a pros-pect, student-athlete or their relatives or friends a benefit not expressly authorized by the NCAA. Examples of impermissible benefits include, but are not limited to, the following:

Gifts of cash, clothing, equipment or any •other tangible item;A special discount, payment arrangement •or credit on any purchase or service;Loan of money or co-signing of loans;•A vehicle, use of a vehicle, or any transpor-•tation expenses;Free or reduced-cost services, purchases or •rentals;Entertainment on- or off-campus; or•Free or reduced-cost rent or housing.•

WHAT ARE THE CoNSEQUENCES? EMU is responsible for the actions of its boost-ers. If a booster provides an impermissible ben-efit to a prospect, student-athlete, their relatives or friends, EMU may be subject to penalties from the NCAA and Mid-American Conference. When a violation occurs, regardless of intention, it can:

Jeopardize the eligibility of prospective •and current student-athletes; Result in the EMU athletics program being •penalized by the NCAA and/or the Mid-American Conference; and Cause you to lose benefits or privileges •associated with the athletics department (i.e., booster club membership, ticket privi-leges).

QUESTIoNS? The above information is a brief overview of compliance and rules pertaining to boosters and their interactions with prospective student-athletes. If you have any questions about any NCAA, MAC or institutional rules, please contact the Christopher Hoppe at 734.487.3263 or [email protected]. For more information on compliance and boosters, please visit the Office of Athletic Compliance’s website at: EMUEagles.com/compliance

RECRUITING Do’S AND DoN’TS Only EMU coaches may be involved in the recruiting process. Boosters may not make any recruiting contacts with prospective student-athletes, Boosters are prohibited from the fol-lowing:

Do not telephone, write or make in-person •contact with a prospect for recruiting pur-posesDo not contact a prospect’s coach, princi-•pal or counselor in an attempt to evaluate the prospectDo not become involved in making ar-•rangements for a prospect, the prospect’s relatives or friends to receive money or financial aid of any kindDo not visit a prospect’s school to acquire •films or transcripts in an attempt to evalu-ate the prospect’s academic or athletics eligibilityDo not have contact with a prospect, their •relatives or friends during any of their vis-its to EMU’s campusDo not contact student-athletes enrolled •in other four-year institutions regarding the possibility of transferring to EMU

Even though there are many rules prohibit-ing your involvement with prospects and the recruiting process, as a booster you are permit-ted to do the following:

Notify EMU coaching staff about notewor-•thy prospects in your area,

Attend a prospect’s athletics event on •your own initiative, provided no contact with the prospect, the prospect’s parents or coach occurs,

Continue existing friendships, provided •solicitation of a prospect’s enrollment does not occur.

Student-Athlete Support Services Academic, personal and professional support are essential to college success. At EMU, Student-Athlete Support Services (SASS) helps student-athletes reach their full potential. Our philosophy is to offer an academic support program, integrated with the University, that will assist all student-athletes with their transition into college. This all-encompassing support continues throughout each student-athlete’s collegiate career, until the day he or she receives a diploma, lands a job or enters graduate school. Being proactive rather than reactive, our staff does not wait for an academic crisis to occur. We gather important background information and build an academic profile on each student-athlete, assessing his or her needs in advance. Services provided through SASS include the following: programs that focus on student-athletes’ special needs, monitoring academic performance, providing learning assistance, assisting with registration procedures, assisting in monitoring athletic eligibility, providing priority registration and making sure that athletes are advised about current NCAA, MAC and University rules and regulations. Freshmen and transfer student-athletes encounter a major transition when making the switch from high school or community college to a university. These students, while adjusting to their new routines, receive extra attention and sup-port. College is not easy. But with hard work and dedication from both the student-athlete and the support staff, the student-athlete can have a successful college experience. The success of Eastern’s student-athletes hinges on their willingness to seek as-sistance from SASS as well as other University student services. SASS staff members continually refer student-athletes to the Admissions Office, Academic Advising Center, Career Services Center, Health Services, the Records Office, Financial Aid and The Holman Learning Center. Faculty members also provide assistance to student-athletes through advising in course selection and providing additional help with courses when requested.

Athletic Training and Sports Medicine The Eastern Michigan University Sports Medicine Department has a long history and reputation for excellence in the health care of student-athletes and the educa-tion of athletic training students. Founding practitioners Gary Strickland, Ron Venis and Dr. Wally Roeser envisioned a goal of first-class prevention, management and rehabilitation of athletic injuries for all student-athletes. Although the department continues to grow, its primary mission remains the same. The student-athletes participating in intercollegiate athletics receive comprehensive health care from an expansive sports medicine team. The Eastern Michigan University Sports Medicine staff is led by Dr. Tara Master-Hunter, Dr. Zoe Foster, Dr. David Alvarez, Dr. George Pujalte, Dr. Wally Roeser, Dr. Bruce Miller, Dr. Don Wurtzel and head athletic trainer Steve Nordwall. Additionally, the staff consists of two primary care sports medicine fellows, three full-time staff athletic trainers, two full-time athletic training clinical educators, five graduate assistant athletic trainers and the team dentist. Our sports medicine staff works in conjunction with various medical professionals within the community who provide nutritional, dental, vision and other specialized services for our student-athletes. At Eastern Michigan University, the philosophy of the Sports Medicine staff is two-fold: to provide a high standard of medical care through effective preventive and management programs, and to facilitate an effective post-injury rehabilitation process for a safe return to competition. In all cases, the ultimate well-being of each student-athlete is considered our number one priority, not only while they compete at Eastern Michigan University, but during their lifetime as well. The Sports Medicine staff operates out of three campus athletic training facilities in the Convocation Center, Bowen Field House and the Rynearson Stadium team building.

Sports Performance/Strength and Conditioning The main focus of the EMU strength and conditioning program is to develop the complete student-athlete. Everything that is incorporated into the training program relates to success on the court. The program is not just about lifting weights, but rather the development of all aspects of athletic performance. These areas include speed, strength, quickness, agility, flexibility, explosion, sports nutrition and mental toughness. One of the main objectives of the program is to improve the players’ agility and speed. The goal is to develop stronger and more physical student-athletes without losing speed or flexibility. With that in mind, our staff focuses on improving strength in the “Power Zone.” Abdominal, lower back and hip strength are crucial for an athlete’s success. Increas-ing strength in these areas decreases the chance and severity of injury and assists in strength and power development. EMU athletes are pushed as much as possible to prepare for competition. The athletes are challenged through physically demanding and intense workouts year-round. The athletes are also challenged during each workout with some type of mental toughness/physical challenge. We train not only the physical side of the student-athlete, but also the mental and competitive side. While everyone lifts weights during the year, EMU Eagle student-athletes will also condition. This places us as one of the best conditioned teams in the country each year. Our goal is simple: Be the best conditioned/most physical team in the country. A highly motivated athlete is a program’s most valuable asset. Everyone in the country works on developing their athletes from the neck down, but at EMU, our program strives for excellence both mentally and physically. Our staff works to develop long-term and short-term goals for success. We work closely with the athletes so we know exactly what they are doing and what they need to do to improve. Developing athletes is a year-round task for our strength staff. During the year, the athletes will spend almost as much time in the weight room as they do on the court. Strength and Conditioning at EMU is a full-time commitment. There is no such thing as part-time champions. EMU athletes work hard but have fun. The camaraderie and work ethic developed in the weight room carry onto the field.
