COACHINGSTAFF

The 2013-14 season marks Cory Schwartz’s 32nd year coaching with the Nordic program and 27th year as the ski coordinator. During his tenure, Schwartz has led the Wildcats to 24 Top-10 NCAA place-ments, including back-to-back seventh place finishes (‘84 & ‘85) within his first three years at the University and eighth-place finishes in 2011 and 2013, matching the squad’s top placement since 1994. From 1989-96, Schwartz’s teams claimed eight consecutive Top-10 NCAA finishes, the most in school history.

Schwartz has mentored 34 student-athletes to a total of 45 All-America team selec-tions. Included in that number are 18 Nordic skiers compiling 12 All-America team honors. In 2013, senior Liz Guiney was the recipient of the NCAA Elite 89 award, which recognized her for reaching the pinnacle of competition at the national championship level while also achieving the highest academic standard among her peers. Schwartz was named EISA Coach of the Year in 1985, ‘86, 2002 and ’03 and was awarded the Al Merrill Award by the state of New Hampshire in 1998. During his collegiate career at UNH, Schwartz competed in the NCAA Championships three times before graduating in 1982. The Center Conway, N.H., native had his top perfor-mance during his junior season when he placed 10th in the NCAAs. He began coaching the men’s squad in a post-graduate year and, the following season, took over the duties for the women’s team.

COACHINGSTAFF

Brian Blank is in his seventh season as UNH alpine head coach in 2013-14. Brian is a 1995 UNH graduate with over 10 years of expe-rience as an alpine ski racing coach as well as 15 years experience as an alpine ski racer. He lettered on the UNH ski team from 1991-95 and served as team captain in 1994-95. The Wildcats finished eighth at the 2013 NCAAs, which matched their top result since 1994. Men’s alpine racers Sam Coffey (SL), Taylor Vest-Burton (SL) and Coley Oliver (GS) earned All-America First Team honors. Vest-Burton added a Second Team (GS) merit, and the Wildcats placed runner-up in both men’s disciplines. On the

women’s side, Catherine Blanchard competed at NCAAs for a third straight season; the se-nior was joined by Jenna Kantor, a repeat NCAA competitor, and Randa Teschner, the lone Wildcat freshman to earn a trip to nationals. Two other Wildcats –Kris Hopkins (men) and Marie-Elaine Lepine (women)- qualified for NCAAs but did not compete due to a three-skier limit per team. Coffey, the men’s alpine team MVP, was named to the EISA All-East First Team. In 2009, Blank was named EISA Alpine Coach of the Year. During that season, the alpine team earned eight All-America honors. The alpine team was the top scoring team in the east and the second-highest scoring team at the NCAA Championships.Through the regular season, the men’s alpine team won 11 of 12 events. From 2001-2006, Blank coached at Stratton Mountain School. While at SMS, Blank served as the men’s FIS coach. Prior to that position, coach Blank worked at Rowmark Ski Academy (1998-2000) in Salt Lake City, Utah and with the Brighton Ski Team (1995-98).

Mark W. Huddleston became the 19th president of the University of New Hampshire in July 2007, bringing three decades of experience in public and private education as a faculty member, dean, and senior administrator. Huddleston has been a strong advocate for increasing affordability and accessibility in higher education, and has argued that we need to rethink much of what we do to protect our core mis-sions, and to ensure that higher education remains vital and financially sustainable in the 21st century. In February 2010, he presented a 10-year strategic plan for UNH, the result of an intensive collaboration between faculty, students, staff, alumni, and the University’s wider communities. Emphasizing innovation and entrepreneurship, the plan is helping to guide the University’s re-sponse to a historic state budget cut passed by the 2011 New Hampshire Legislature.

Huddleston was raised in Syracuse, N.Y., and was the first member of his family ever to attend college. He earned his bachelor’s degree in political science from the State University of New York-Buffalo, and both a master’s degree and Ph.D. in political science from the University of Wisconsin–Madison. He began his academic career at SUNY-Buffalo in 1977 as an assistant professor of political science. In 1980, he joined the faculty of the University of Delaware, where he served for the next 24 years. There, he chaired the Department of Political Science and International Relations and served as associate provost for international programs. In 2001, he was named dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, overseeing 45 academic departments and centers with nearly 900 full-time faculty and staff, and serving in that capacity until he was named president of Ohio Wesleyan University in 2004. An author of numerous books and articles, he has been a consultant for both the U.S. government and international orga-nizations. He also served as an adviser in Bosnia on rebuilding financial and administrative infrastructures after the Dayton accords. Huddleston is chair of the Presidents Council of the America East Conference, an incorporator of the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation, and a member of the Board of Trustees of the Speedway Children’s Charities.
