At nearly 15,000 square feet, the training fa-cility is one of the largest in the nation. It is lo-cated on the first floor of the Bev Lewis Center. Named in spring 2003, the Hunt-ley Gymnastics Training Facility is one of the finest practice facilities in the country. The Huntley Facility features state-of-the-art design with an open floor plan to work every area of gymnastics training. Designed to reduce hard landings, the Huntley Fa-cility has three vault runways with cushioned tracks and both foam and “resi” pits. With three bar work sta-tions to train on, the Razorbacks can also use the chan-nel pit for training. The practice facility has five beam stations with a variety of landing choices and a full-size, 40x40 floor exercise near the center of the room. The gymnastics training room is located just steps from the floor exercise area and has a hydro-therapy room as well as a treatment area for ath-letes. The glass wall facing the practice facility al-lows the full-time staff to remain in the training room while still keeping the gym in full view. The coaches’ offices are also adja-cent to the gym and also feature large win-dows facing into the practice facility. The Razorbacks enter their facility through the reception area and can directly access the gym or their locker room. The locker room area includes locker and dressing facilities, show-ers, a team meeting area, lounge and kitchenette. In addition to the offices and locker room suite, the Huntley Gymnastics Training Fa-cility has a laundry and equipment room as well as storage exclusively for the Razorbacks.

The vault tables (above) and the vault runways allow athletes to choose from sev-eral landing surfaces (above left). The Razorbacks can also work on their tumbling passes on the floor exercise area and fall off the mat into a large “resi” pit.

Arkansas co-head coach Mark Cook often refers to home meets in Barnhill Arena as a “party in the Barn.” The par-ty is entering its 11th season. When Arkansas made the de-cision to welcome gymnastics in 2001, the entire Athletic De-partment underwent a change. The continued growth of the Athletic Department, includ-ing the addition of four sports in 10 years, impacted the facili-ties at the university on a grand scale. Barnhill began its adapta-tion to a volleyball/gymnastics facility with an internal face lift. Changes included a new paint job in areas immediately sur-rounding the playing surface, new lights to accommodate the space requirements of gymnas-tics, and a state-of-the-art sound system and scoreboards which are both Razorbacks and fan friendly. When the Razorbacks final-ly reached campus in the fall of 2002, the fans came. In fact, fans came in droves and by the end of the 2003 season, Arkansas ranked fourth in the nation in attendance, averaging 4,739 people per event. The Razorbacks threw their big-gest party in 2012, setting a Barn-hill record with 5,537 fans for the rout of No. 25 LSU on Jan. 20. That night was the official observance of the 10-year anniversary of the program with Razorback alumni recognized in front of the crowd. The raucous crowd also wit-nessed Arkansas score a school-record 197.225, which elevated the No. 3 Razorbacks to their first No. 1 national ranking in pro-

gram history the following week. For the year, Arkansas drew an average of 3,081 fans per meet to rank eighth in the nation. The average was an increase of more than 690 per meet from 2011. Barnhill was also the site of an NCAA Regional in 2012, and Ar-kansas’ crowd of 2,713 was second-best among the six NCAA sites. Barnhill was a host site in 2006 and 2009, and the Razorbacks have advanced to the NCAA Champi-onship every time they have host-ed, and moved on the the Super Six in two of those seasons (2009 and 2012). Barnhill has once again been selected as an NCAA Regional site for the 2014 season. Fans in 2011 witnessed a win over No. 1 Florida and the program’s first victory over

The Razorbacks have ranked among the nation’s elite teams in atten-dance average from the first season the doors opened in Barnhill Arena. The first-year Razorbacks averaged 4,739 fans and ranked fourth in the country for average attendance. Arkansas repeated the following year, again ranking fourth as the pro-gram made its first appearance at the NCAA Regional Championship. Since the program’s inception in 2003, Arkansas has ranked in the top 15 in attendance every year. The Razorbacks have had four home meets with more than 5,000 fans in the seats, topping out at 5,537 against No. 25 Ala-bama in 2012. That crowd spurred the Razorbacks to a school-record 197.225 and a No. 1 national ranking the following week. Arkansas ranked fourth in the country in 2003 and 2004, sixth in 2005, 11th in 2006, 12th in 2007, 15th in 2008, 10th in 2009, 11th in 2010 and 2011, and moved up to eighth in 2012 with an average of 3,081.

Coming off anoth-er Super Six season in 2012, Arkansas gym-nastics co-head coach-es Mark Cook and René Lyst have a roster loaded with veterans as they look for a spot in the NCAA Champi-onship for the seventh time in eight years. Leading the way is a solid core of five All-Americans and three all-arounders, and Ar-kansas’ goals are the same as always. “Our goals have stayed consisted over the past few years,” Lyst says. “We want to be a top seed going into regionals, qualify for the national championship, qualify to the Super Six and ultimately be on the awards stand as one of the top four teams at the NCAA Championship.” “We want to stay healthy and improve on last year,” Cook says. “We want to beat more top teams than we did last year, improve our home attendance average, make the Super Six again and have our first NCAA individual event champion.” Seniors Amy Borsellino and Kelci Lewis earned All-Amer-ica honors on vault and floor, respectively, in 2011. Junior Bailee Zumwalde and sophomore Stephani Canizaro were second-team All-Americans on floor in 2012. Grable earned two All-America honors each year, first-team on floor and second-team on vault in 2011, and first-team on beam and second-team on vault in 2012. That group led the Razorbacks to the first No. 1 national ranking in program history in 2012 and their second Super Six in four years. In 10 years, the Arkansas program has earned nine con-secutive NCAA Regional bids, advanced to the NCAA Cham-pionship six times in the last seven seasons, finished in the top 10 four times in the last five years and reached the Super Six in 2009 and 2012. Coming off a sixth-place national fin-ish, the Razorbacks are looking for better this year. “We want to do it again,” Cook says of the Super Six, “but we want to place higher.” “The team is determined,” Lyst says. “While we were thrilled with qualifying to the Super Six, we were disappoint-ed in how we competed. The team is very focused. Training is going great. We are right where we need to be at this time. Obviously there is work to do, but I’m pleased and impressed with this team.” Last year’s team started the year by winning the star-studded Cancun Classic with wins over four other teams ranked in the top 25. The Razorbacks officially observed their 10-year history on Jan. 20 with a home rout of No. 25 LSU. Arkansas set a school record in the meet with a 197.225, and jumped to the No. 1 spot in the GymInfo na-tional rankings for the first time in program history. The Razorbacks, who beat 15 teams ranked in the top 25, were

also ranked No. 1 on bars for three weeks. Midway through the sea-son, Arkansas lost all-around-er Jordan Salsberg for the year with a knee injury. Grable missed parts or all of five meets at the end of the regu-lar season. Lewis missed parts of three meets with an ankle injury. During that stretch, Cook and Lyst were forced to replace 11 of the 24 spots in their lineup. Borsellino was pressed into an all-arounder role and performed well, and all three injured Razorbacks returned for the NCAA Regional. Ar-kansas hosted and finished second to No. 3 UCLA. The No. 8 Razorbacks moved to the NCAA Championship and beat No. 5 Georgia, No. 9 Oregon State and No. 12 Ohio State in the Session II semifinal to earn their second appear-ance in the Super Six. Other big wins for the Razorbacks were against No. 12 LSU, No. 13 Auburn, No. 15 Boise State, No. 18 Minnesota, No. 19 Arizona, No. 19 Missouri, No. 23 Ken-tucky, No. 24 Maryland and No. 25 Iowa. Borsellino, Grable and Salsberg return as all-around-ers this year, and all three are expected to be leaders and post big scores. “Obviously Kat will be a big key to our success along with Amy and Jordan,” Lyst says. “Those three will most likely be in all-around spots. This team is made up a bit differently than last season. We have quality depth on every event and will look to maximize our scoring potential, especially in the fifth and sixth spots. Stephani Canizaro has prob-ably improved the most on the team since last season and may be in an all-around spot as well. She gains confi-dence every day.” Borsellino set or matched her career highs on all four events last year with a 9.90 vault, 9.825 on bars, 9.875 on beam and 9.90 on floor, and had a personal-best 39.35 all-around. Grable, prior to her in-jury, became the first Razor-

Amy Borsellino stepped into an all-around role last year and set or matched career highs in all four events.

back to earn a No. 1 national ranking in the all-around. She and former Razorback Jaime Pisani set a school record and posted the top all-around score in the nation last year with a 39.725. Grable, from Oshkosh, Wis., was a first-team All-American on beam and second-team on vault. She advanced to the NCAA individual event finals on beam and placed sixth in the nation. Salsberg was a key performer on each event. Prior to her injury against No. 9 Nebraska on Feb. 24, the Gulfport, Miss., native set career highs with a 9.90 vault, 9.85 on bars, 9.875 on floor and a 39.275 in the all-around. “It’s huge having Jordan back,” Cook says. “She’s do-ing great! Amy picked up where she left off last year, only she’s better. Kather-ine is still great. We expect her to compete for the all-around title at the national championship.” From the NCAA Cham-pionship lineup, five of six return on vault, four on bars, four on beam and five on floor, giving the coaches 16 returnees in 24 positions. With Salsberg’s expected return, 20 of 24 positions could be filled. Junior Scarlett Williams, who was in the lineup on vault, beam and floor last season, was lost for the sea-son with an injury during fall workouts. Returning regulars in the lineup on vault include Lewis, Borsellino, Grable and Zumwalde. On bars, Bor-sellino, Grable and Canizaro are joined by junior Shelby Salmon. Beam regulars in-clude Salmon, Borsellino and Grable. On floor, the first five in last year’s order return in Zumwalde, Canizaro, Lewis, Grable and Borsellino. Lewis set career highs last year with a 9.90 vault in the Super Six, a 9.75 on beam and a 9.90 on floor. Zumwalde had career bests of 9.85 on vault and 9.85 three times on floor, including in the Session II semifinal to earn All-America honors. Canizaro, as a fresh-man, had season highs of 9.80 on vault, 9.825 on bars four times and 9.85 on floor. Her 9.85 floor came in the Session II semifinal to also earn All-America recognition. Salmon, who was a key part of the bars lineup to help Arkansas earn the No. 1 event ranking, had highs of 9.925 on bars and 9.85 on beam. “We’ve been defining roles and the team is really start-ing to mesh,” Lyst says of fall workouts. “It’s nice to see the different personalities come to the forefront and it’s not just

Kat has really ma-tured and Shelby has really been a strong influence within the group as well.” “We’re working on con-sistency and not holding any-thing back,” Cook says. “We’re right on track.” The eight returnees are joined by five newcomers – freshmen Sydnie Dillard, Heath-er Elswick, Erin Freier, Keara Glover and Lillian Hardin. Dillard is a 2010 Junior Olympic Level 10 national qualifier and won the 2012 Re-gion III title on beam. Elswick is a two-time J.O. Level 10 qual-ifier and a top 10 national per-former. Hardin was a top five finisher in all four events last year in the Texas state meet. Freier won the national cham-pionship on bars in 2010, and was a J.O. Level 10 qualifier in 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012. The top candidates to make Cook’s vault lineup are Grable, Borsellino, Lewis, Zumwalde, Salsberg and Elswick with Canizaro and Freier, among others, also competing for a spot. Cook’s bars team is led by Canizaro, Borsellino, Grable, Salmon and Salsberg with oth-er spots still to be determined. On beam, Lyst’s lineup will likely include a combination of Grable, Dillard, Salsberg, Salmon, Borsellino, Canizaro, Freier, Glover and Lewis. “This is the strongest beam team we’ve had, top to bottom,” Lyst says. “Four of the top six competed at the NCAA Championship. Their matu-rity level and composure is out-standing.” On floor, assistant coach Samantha Cortez will choose between Grable, Borsellino, Lewis, Zumwalde, Elswick, Canizaro, Salsberg, Freier and Dillard. “Full routines are starting to come together nicely and we will be ready to go once the season begins,” Cortez says. “We have a lot of depth this year, which is always great. The ladies are pushing each other every day, constantly improv-ing and making changes. Overall, our floor team is looking strong.”

Junior Bailee Zumwalde was a second-team All-American on floor in 2012.

Mark Cook has guided the Razorbacks from their infancy through their first 10 years of existence and built one of the dominant programs in the nation. Cook and Arkansas marked their 10-year anni-versary in 2012 and had a lot to celebrate – including their ninth NCAA Regional appearance, sixth NCAA Championship appearance, second trip to the Super Six in four years, eighth consecutive top 15 final ranking and third top 10 finish in the last four years. In 2003, the first year Arkansas field-ed a team, the Razorbacks finished 41st in the final national rankings. In 2004, the Razorbacks earned a spot in an NCAA Regional for the first time and haven’t missed the postseason since. In 2005, Ar-kansas finished 15th in the final rankings and haven’t finished lower than 13th since. In 2006, the Razorbacks reached the NCAA Championships for the first time and have been back the last five years. Even with that sustained success, Ar-kansas reached new heights in 2012. In its 10th season, Arkansas earned its first No. 1 national ranking, earned its first event No. 1 ranking (bars), and had individuals ranked No. 1 in the all-around, on floor and on bars for the first time. Arkansas hosted an NCAA Regional for the third time and advanced to the NCAA Cham-pionship in Duluth, Ga. The Razorbacks, who beat 15 teams ranked in the top 25, finished third in the Session II semifinal to advance to the Super Six and finished sixth in the country for Arkansas’ second-best finish ever. Four Razorbacks (Jaime Pisani, Kath-erine Grable, Stephani Canizaro and Bailee Zumwalde) combined for eight All-America honors, giving Arkansas 36 selections in its 10 years. Two Razorbacks, Pisani and Grable, advanced to the NCAA event finals, giving Arkansas 16 total ap-pearances. Cook, an SEC and NCAA South Cen-tral Regional Coach of the Year honoree, focuses on the vault and bars events. Ar-kansas has ranked in the top 25 in both each of the last six years, including tying for No. 6 on vault and No. 7 on bars in 2012. Cook coached Mariah Howdeshell to Arkansas’ first No. 1 ranking on bars (three weeks) and Katherine Grable to the school’s first No. 1 national rank-ing in the all-around (two weeks). Jaime Pisani later reached No. 1 in the AA for four rankings periods. Pisani, who won 35 individual event titles, finished third in the nation in the all-around, ninth on floor and 12th on beam. Grable finished sixth on beam. Pisani earned four All-America hon-ors to end her career with a school-record 13, and became Arkansas’ first SEC Gym-nast of the Year.

Cook has coached five different Ra-zorbacks to eight All-America honors on vault, three to five honors on bars and three to five honors in the all-around. Of those 18 All-America honors, nine have been first-team. He has also guided four Razorbacks into six appearances in the NCAA individual event finals with three top five finishes. In 2011, Arkansas recorded its third-best finish ever. The Razorbacks won the NCAA North Central Regional, beating No. 1 Florida for the title. Arkansas tied for fourth in the NCAA Session I Semi-final to tie for ninth in the country and missed advancing to the Super Six by one spot. Cook’s team also beat top-ranked Florida during the regular season, record-ed its first-ever win over Georgia, which was ranked No. 4 at the time, tied for the SEC regular-season title, had 11 wins over teams ranked in the top 25, beat LSU in Baton Rouge for the first time, set school records with seven dual meet wins and four wins on the road, and set school re-cords with five SEC wins and three SEC road wins. Individually, Pisani, Grable, Amy Borsellino and Kelci Lewis and combined for seven All-America honors. Borsellino earned her first All-America honor as a first-teamer on vault while Grable made the second team. Pisani won 28 individual event titles, finished ranked No. 3 in the nation on floor and No. 5 in the all-around. In the NCAA event finals, she tied for fifth on floor. Grable ended the year ranked No. 16 in the all-around, and tied for ninth on floor in the event finals. Borsellino placed 15th in the finals on vault. In addition, Pisani became the first Razorback to earn South Central Region-al Gymnast of the Year honors and de-parted senior Michelle Stout was named the SEC’s co-Scholar-Athlete of the Year. In 2010, Arkansas was ranked sev-enth at the end of the regular season and finished No. 11 in the nation after nationals. Arkansas finished second in the NCAA West Regional, led the SEC in team grade point average and ranked No. 16 in the country, set school records for overall team score and on bars, recorded five of the top eight overall team scores in program history and had wins over eight top 25 ranked opponents. Arkansas ranked No. 11 on vault and No. 13 on bars. Cook helped guide senior Casey Jo Magee and Pisani to All-America status at the 2010 national championship. The pair combined for six appearances in the NCAA individual event finals. Magee was second in the nation in the all-around, the highest finish ever for a Razorback, and fourth on beam, tied for fifth on bars and 12th on floor. Pisani was 10th on floor and 12th on vault.

Cook has coached eight All-Southeastern Conference selec-tions, 12 SEC gymnasts of the week picks, eight SEC Commu-nity Service Team members, 78 SEC academic team selections, 67 NACGC/W Academic Scholar-Athletes and 10 All-Americans to 36 honors. In addition, the 2010 and 2011 squads both earned pub-lic recognition from the NCAA for ranking among the top 10 percent nationally in multi-year Academic Progress Rate (APR). The 2010 honor was the first for an SEC program since 2006.

STARTING A PROGRAM Cook came to Arkansas in May 2001 to build the Razorback program from scratch. He was consulted on the construction of one of the top practice facilities in the nation. He selected, ordered and assembled equipment; and helped fans and North-west Arkansas quickly accept and learn about his sport. He was also scouting, recruiting and signing the first recruiting class in school history. Arkansas’ first team, an all-freshman lineup in 2003, fin-ished its inaugural season ranked No. 41 in the nation with No. 37 and No. 43 rankings on bars and vault, respectively. In 2004, Arkansas earned an NCAA Regional appearance and a top 20 national ranking (No. 20) in just the second season in program history. In addition, the Razorbacks had their first all-conference athlete in Melissa Leigh on bars. Arkansas was No. 24 in the nation on bars and No. 32 on vault. The 2005 team also advanced to a regional and finished with an overall ranking of No. 26. The Razorbacks were No. 18 on bars and No. 27 on vault. In 2006, the first recruiting class in school history helped Arkansas upset No. 9 UCLA in the NCAA South Central Regional, took the Razorbacks to their first NCAA Champion-ship and ended the year ranked No. 12. Arkansas was No. 20 on both vault and bars.

PRIOR TO ARKANSAS Cook was the head coach at Stanford University for four seasons (1998-2001), leading the Cardinal to two Pac-10 titles, four NCAA Regional appearances, and two NCAA top 10 finishes, and produced several individual and team records which still stand. He coached the program’s first in-dividual national champion, Larissa Fontaine on vault. Dur-

ing his tenure, Stanford finished as high as eighth in the nation (2001). Prior to Stanford, Cook helped build NCAA and Pac-10 champions at UCLA as an assistant coach from 1995-97. Dur-ing Cook’s three years at UCLA, the Bruins won two Pac-10 ti-tles, three NCAA Regional championships and their first NCAA Championship (1997). Cook’s work led to UCLA moving from fourth at NCAAs the season he arrived in 1995 to national run-ner-up in 1996 before taking the team title in 1997. Before moving into the collegiate coaching ranks, Cook was considered one of the top club coaches in the country. Serving as the head coach for Clovis (Calif.) Academy of Gym-nastics from 1980-94, Cook helped build Clovis into a 900-student club. He produced numerous level 10 gymnasts, had

athletes qualify for the USA Ju-nior Olympic National Team and produced several elite gymnasts who competed at US Classics and USA Champion-ships. In his final two years at Clovis, Cook also served as the academy director. Cook was named the Elite Coach of the Year by the United States Elite Coaches Association in 1989. Individual honors include induction into the Diablo Val-ley (Pleasant Hill, Calif.) Col-lege Hall of Fame, where he competed as a gymnast from 1972-74, in 2010; 2009 NCAA South Central Region co-Head Coach of the Year, 2008 SEC co-Head Coach of the Year, and 2001 Pac-10 and NCAA West Region Head Coach of the Year awards.

René Lyst is entering her 11th season at Arkansas where she has built one of the most successful programs in the country. Lyst and the Razorbacks enjoyed a ban-ner season in 2012, the 10-year anniver-sary of the program, by reaching the Su-per Six for the second time in four years, earning the team’s first No. 1 national ranking, advancing to the NCAA postsea-son for the ninth straight season, hosting an NCAA Regional for the third time and earning a spot in the NCAA Champion-ship for the sixth time. The first year of the program, in 2003, Arkansas ranked 41st in the nation. The Razorbacks earned an NCAA bid for the first time in 2004 and have been back every year since. Arkansas ended the year ranked No. 15 in 2005 and has been in the top 13 each year since. Since 2006, Arkansas has advanced to the NCAA Championship six of seven years, includ-ing the last five. Included in those eight consecutive top 15 rankings are three top 10 finishes in the last four years. In 2012, Arkansas recorded its sec-ond-best finish ever by finishing sixth in the country. The Razorbacks earned a No. 1 national ranking, earned their first event No. 1 ranking (bars), and had indi-viduals ranked No. 1 for the first time in the all-around, on floor and on bars. The Razorbacks recorded 15 wins over teams ranked in the top 25, finished second in the NCAA Regional in Fayetteville, fin-ished third in the NCAA Session II semifi-nal and moved on to the Super Six for the second time in four years. Four Razorbacks (Jaime Pisani, Kath-erine Grable, Stephani Canizaro and Bailee Zumwalde) combined for eight All-America honors, giving Arkansas 36 selections in its 10 years. Two Razorbacks, Pisani and Grable, advanced to the NCAA event finals, giving Arkansas 16 total ap-pearances. Lyst is Arkansas’ primary beam coach while assisting on all four events. She has guided Arkansas to top 25 final national rankings on beam for eight straight years, including No. 15 in 2012. Arkansas was also No. 9 in 2010, No. 13 in 2011, No. 16 in 2009 and No. 16 in 2008. Lyst has guided three individuals to six All-America honors on beam along with three to five selections in the all-around.

event finals. Magee was second in the nation in the all-around, the highest finish ever for a Razorback, and fourth on beam, tied for fifth on bars and 12th on floor. Pisani was 10th on floor and 12th on vault. In 2009, Arkansas advanced to the NCAA Super Six for the first time in school history, finished fifth in the NCAA Champi-onship and had a No. 5 final ranking, and recorded wins over No. 1 Florida, No. 2 Utah, No. 4 Stanford, No. 6 LSU, No. 6 Or-egon State, No. 7 UCLA, No. 7 Oklahoma and No. 9 Alabama.

In 2008, Arkansas had wins over No. 6 Alabama, No. 8 Or-egon State, No. 9 UCLA, No. 12 Penn State and No. 14 Auburn. Arkansas finished second in the NCAA North Central Regional and advanced to the NCAA Championship. Arkansas finished the year ranked No. 10 in the nation. The 2007 squad finished third in the NCAA Northeast Re-gional and had regular-season wins over No. 14 Auburn and No. 14 Penn State. The Razorbacks were ranked No. 15 at the end of the season with a No. 10 ranking on beam and No. 13 on floor. Lyst also spearheads Arkansas’ commitment in the class-room, and she leads by example. In 2011, she earned her doctor of education degree (Ed.D.) from Arkansas. In 2010, the Razor-backs led the SEC and placed 16th in the country with a team grade point average of 3.4369. Arkansas was also No. 16 in 2009 with a 3.4309 GPA, No. 14 in 2003, No. 10 in 2004, No. 7 in 2005 and No. 21 in 2007. Lyst’s teams have posted a 3.30 GPA or better each year. She has coached eight All-SEC selections, 10 All-Americans to 36 selections, 78 SEC Academic Honor Roll members, 67 National Association for Collegiate Gymnastics Coaches for Women Aca-demic Scholar-Athletes and numerous Arkansas Women’s Ath-letics Department Honor Roll selections. In addition, the 2010 and 2011 squads both earned pub-lic recognition from the NCAA for ranking among the top 10 percent nationally in multi-year Academic Progress Rate (APR). The 2010 honor was the first for an SEC program since 2006. Lyst also oversees production of floor music, floor chore-ography, team building, and assists on vault and floor exercise coaching. In addition to her full complement of coaching duties in the gym, she spends numerous hours recruiting and coordinat-ing the staff’s recruiting efforts.

STARTING A PROGRAM When Lyst moved to Fayetteville in 2001, her assignment was to turn Arkansas gymnastics into a nationally competitive, academically superior crowd-pleasing program – from scratch. When she arrived, there was no gym, no equipment, no leotards and no team, but on May 7, 2001, she ac-cepted that challenge and quickly built Arkansas into a program any coach would be proud of. Lyst’s initial duties included consulting on the construction of one of the nation’s best practice facilities and assembling a team good enough to com-pete in the country’s tough-est gymnastics conference, the SEC. Lyst inked a recruiting class of 11 freshmen, con-vincing the team to take a chance on building a pro-gram from the ground up. The first team finished the year with a No. 41 na-

tional ranking, including a No. 38 rating on beam. The second season, 2004, Arkansas made its first NCAA appearance and was ranked No. 20 overall and tied for No. 16 on beam. The 2005 team also advanced to a regional, and finished with an overall ranking of No. 26 and a beam ranking of No. 13. In 2006, the first recruiting class in school history helped Arkansas upset No. 9 UCLA in the NCAA South Central Region-al, took the Razorbacks to their first NCAA Championship and ended the year ranked No. 12 with a No. 18 beam ranking.

PRIOR TO ARKANSAS Lyst helped lead Stanford to its first Pac-10 champion-ship in women’s gymnastics in 1998 and repeated the feat in 2001. Under the Cooks’ tutelage, the Cardinal had its first na-tional champion gymnast, Larissa Fontaine, on vault in 1997. Lyst also coached numerous All-Americans while at Stanford, including three on beam. Among those, Lindsey Wing finished second in the NCAA individual event finals and Katy Herbert finished third. In addition to coaching Magee to SEC and regional beam titles, she coached two Pac-10 champions and two NCAA Re-gional title winners at Stanford. Lyst helped produced Stanford’s first NCAA Regional cham-pions as well, picking up four in their four seasons with the Car-dinal. Stanford enjoyed success in the classroom as well with 14 Scholastic All-America selections and 17 selections to the Pac-

10 All-Academic Team dur-ing her time in Palo Alto. Before moving to Stan-ford as the assistant coach, Lyst was the assistant coach at Penn State for the 1997 season. She helped the Lady Lions to the NCAA Northeast Region title and an 11th-place finish at the NCAA Championship. Lyst worked for three seasons as the assistant coach at Massachusetts pri-or to Penn State. At UMass, she was responsible for bal-ance beam and assisted with recruiting. She also coached an NCAA Regional beam cham-pion at both Penn State and UMass.

AS A JUNIOR (2012) One of the top all-arounders in the nation, Jordan Salsberg sustained a knee injury on her beam dismount against No. 9 Nebraska on Feb. 24 and was lost for the season. Until that point, Salsberg was a consistent all-arounder who played a sig-nificant role in the Razorbacks earning their first No. 1 national ranking.

The Southeastern Conference is the most dominating gymnastics conference in the NCAA, and Arkansas enhanced that reputation with eight NCAA Regional ap-pearances and five trips to the NCAA Championship in just nine years of existence. Since the inaugural NCAA Championship in 1982, the SEC has had at least one team in all 30 national championship meets, with Florida being one of only two teams nationally (Utah is the other) to have appeared at all 20 contests prior to the Gators barely missing the cut in 2000. The SEC has also had at least one team finish in the Top 10 in the NCAA every year since 1982. The SEC entered the record books at the 1998 NCAA Championship, becom-ing the only conference in women’s collegiate gymnastics to sweep the top three spots. Georgia won its fourth championship title with the largest margin of victory in over 10 years. The Gym’Dogs outdistanced second-place Florida, which finished just ahead of Alabama. It marked the 12th consecutive year the SEC placed at least two teams in the final top five. In 2004, the SEC placed three teams in the top five at the NCAA Championship. Georgia won the SEC’s 10th, 11th, 12th, 13th and 14th national championships in 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009. Arkansas advanced from NCAA regionals to the NCAA Championship in 2006, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012. The SEC set a record with five teams advancing to the Super Six in 2009, including the Razorbacks. Alabama won the SEC’s 16th national title in 2012 with Florida (2nd) and the Razorbacks also reaching the Super Six.

2012 SEC Championship Review DULUTH, Ga. - Senior All-American Jai-me Pisani won the Southeastern Conference beam title on the way to setting an Arkansas school meet record in the all-around while tying the records on floor and beam. The 10th-ranked Razorbacks bounced back after a rough start in the first rotation to post good scores in their last three events. With all-arounders Katherine Grable and Jordan Salsberg out with injuries, the Razorbacks struggled on floor and had to count two mistakes for a 47.575. Arkansas regrouped and followed with a 49.05 on vault, a 48.85 on bars and a 48.70 on beam for a 194.175 total. “We’re disappointed to come in here and start the first event with three falls,” co-head coach René Lyst said. “That’s not the way you want to start any competition, but we did fight hard on vault and for the rest of the meet.” The vault score is Arkansas’ third-best for an SEC meet while the bars score is fourth-best. No. 1 Florida won the title with 197.15 points, followed by No. 3 Alabama with 196.775, No. 5 Georgia 196.575, No. 8 LSU 196.425, No. 24 Kentucky 194.35, No. 10 Ar-kansas 194.175 and No. 15 Auburn 194.10. Pisani was a star, as she’s been all year. Ranked No. 1 in the nation on both floor and in the all-around, she had a 9.875 vault, 9.825 on bars, 9.90 on beam and 9.90 on floor for a 39.50 title, breaking the previ-ous school meet record in the all-around of 39.40 by Casey Jo Magee in 2010. She won the SEC beam title with her 9.90 and finished second on floor with a 9.90. Arkansas opened on floor and Bailee Zumwalde led off with a 9.80, but the next two Razorbacks had mistakes.

SOUTHEASTERN CONFERENCE

Canizaro stumbled on her second pass and Sammy Kolbas fell on her second pass, scor-ing a 9.125 and 8.90, respectively. Kelci Lew-is, who missed the last two weeks with an ankle injury, stumbled on her second pass and couldn’t complete her routine, although she tried to fight through it before being told to stop. She scored an 8.30. Junior All-American Amy Borsellino followed with a 9.85 and Pisani, who was ranked No. 1 in the nation on floor, closed the rotation with a 9.90. Pisani’s score ties the school record for the SEC Champion-ship, which she set in 2010 and 2011, and shares with Dana McQuillin from 2004. Borsellino’s 9.85 ties the ninth-best mark in school history for the SEC meet. “Kelci couldn’t finish so we had to count those falls,” Cook said. “We put ourselves in a hole and it’s hard to get out of it. People start to tighten up because they are worried about making their routines and that makes it even harder.” Arkansas scored a 47.575 as a team. After the first rotation, Alabama led with a 49.275 on bars, followed by Georgia at 49.175 on vault, Florida 49.05 on beam and Arkansas. The Razorbacks then went to a bye be-fore moving to vault where they put up good numbers.

Canizaro took Lewis’ place following the injury and led off with a 9.75. Borselli-no, sophomore Scarlett Williams and senior Mariah Howdeshell all followed with a 9.80. Pisani scored a 9.875 and Zumwalde ended the order with a 9.775 for a 49.05, which is Arkansas’ third-best for the SEC Champion-ship. Pisani’s score ties the school’s third-best in the SEC meet. The Razorbacks had their second bye before going to bars. Following three rotations, Georgia led with 98.375 points, followed by Florida with 98.25, Alabama 98.10, Kentucky 97.30, Ar-kansas 96.625, LSU 49.15 and Kentucky 48.90. On bars, Arkansas scored a 48.85, the school’s fourth-best for an SEC meet. Pisani and sophomore Shelby Salmon led the way with a 9.825, followed by Howdeshell with a 9.80, and Borsellino and Canizaro with a 9.70. The Razorbacks closed on beam and scored a 48.70. Pisani led the way with a school meet record-tying 9.90, followed by Borsellino and Salmon with a 9.725, and Williams and Kolbas with a 9.675.

2012 NCAA FAYETTEVILLE REGIONAL

FAYETTEVILLE - Senior All-American Jaime Pisani won the all-around title and helped power Arkansas to a second-place finish in the NCAA Fayetteville Regional for its fifth straight trip to the NCAA Championship. No. 3 UCLA, the top seed in the region, won with a 197.225. No. 10 Arkansas, the No. 2 seed and hosting in Barnhill Arena, finished sec-ond with a 196.825, which is a school record for a re-gional. No. 15 Boise State had a 196.05, No. 19 Missouri a 195.45, No. 34 Maryland a 194.40 and No. 29 New Hampshire a 193.90. Pisani, ranked No. 1 in the nation in the all-around, led the way with a 39.625, setting a school record for a regional. Pisani, the Southeastern Con-ference beam champion, also won beam with a 9.925, and finished second on floor with a 9.925 and bars with a 9.875, and was fourth on vault with a 9.90. “We were phenomenal tonight,” co-head coach Mark Cook said. “We competed better than we have all season and now is the time to do that.” In addition to Pisani’s performance, the Razorbacks got a boost by the return of sophomore All-American Katherine Grable, who missed the previous three meets with an ankle injury, the return of junior All-American Kelci Lewis, who missed all or most of the previous three meets with an ankle injury. In addition, junior All-American Amy Borsellino finished sixth in the all-around with a 39.30. She had scores of 9.875 on vault for sixth, 9.80 on bars for 11th, 9.725 on beam and 9.90 on floor to tie for third. “Having Katherine and Kelci back calmed us down and gave us some security,” Cook said. “They performed well and we were the team we were in the preseason. In every sport you can get in a zone and we were in the zone.”

Kelci Lewis (above) and Kath-erine Grable returned from in-juries for the regional, helping Arkansas advance to the NCAA Championship.

RAZORBACK ACADEMIC HONORS

In 2011, Arkansas became the first gymnastics program in the Southeastern Conference to be recognized by the NCAA as one of the top performing programs in the nation by receiv-ing a public recognition award for its standing among the top 10 percent in the nation in multi-year Academic Progress Rate (APR). The Razorbacks were a repeat honoree in 2012. “We had a very successful season in the gym and in the classroom,” co-head coach René Lyst, who completed her doc-torate in education in 2011, says. “To make the Super Six and have our second straight public recognition from the NCAA for our multi-year APR gives us a lot of pride in our team and our program. Our goals are to have our student-athletes reach their potential in the gym and in the classroom.” Arkansas produced eight All-America honors in the gym in 2012 while earning five Scholastic All-America honors from the National Association for Collegiate Gymnastics Coaches for Women. Arkansas has placed at least four on the national list every year the program has existed. Razorbacks on the list for 2012 are Kelci Lewis and Amanda Siebert, Bailee Zumwalde, and graduated seniors Jaime Pisani and Genny Salvatore. Pisani and Salvatore tied for the best mark in the nation with perfect 4.0 grade point averages for the year.

Old Main One of the original buildings on Arkansas’ campus, Old Main symbolizes the strong con-nection to the past and the focus upon the future which come together in the present at the University of Arkansas. Completed in 1875, Old Main stood the test of time until the mid-1980s when age and modern building codes threatened to send it to the wrecking ball as had happened to its sister building at the University of Illinois. A major fund-raising campaign by alumni totally renovated Old Main. Reopening in 1992, the building maintains the feel of a Victorian-era building with high ceilings and elaborate wooden trim. Just below the surface of the period hardwood floors, Old Main is hard-wired to the internet and built to last well into its second century. Even with renovation, Old Main remained unfinished until 2005. One of the gifts dur-ing the Campaign for the Twenty-First Century specified the installation of a clock, originally planned for the blank faces of the south tower. As mentioned, Old Main was built from shared plans with its counterpart on the Illinois campus, with one important difference. The north tower of Arkansas’ Old Main is taller than the south tower. Legend says this was symbolic of the Civil War as the lead engineer was a northern veteran.

Founded in 1871, The University of Arkansas is the flagship institution of the University of Arkansas System. Located in Fayetteville in Arkansas’ northwest corner, the U of A is the state’s foremost partner and resource for education and economic development. The U of A offers 213 baccalaureate, master’s, doctoral, professional and specialist degree programs. In keeping with its status as Arkansas’ land-grant university, the U of A has a 140-year-old mandate to educate, to conduct basic and applied research, and to extend knowledge and resources to the people of Arkansas and beyond through public engagement and service. The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching recently classified the U of A as a national research university with a very high level of research activity, based on the number of doctoral degrees awarded, research grants received, and other factors. The U of A is the only Arkansas institution with such a ranking and is among just 108 institutions in the United States (out of 4,633) to have received that classification. The U of A has enormous influence over Arkansans’ social, cultural, and recreational life, especially the widespread passion for the university’s athletics teams, the Arkansas Razorbacks. The U of A’s location in northwest Arkansas is viewed as one of the uni-versity’s strongest attributes. Fayetteville is widely recognized as one of the best college communities in the U.S. The city’s Dickson Street district abuts the U of A campus and features scores of restaurants, shops, and entertainment venues. Northwest Arkansas is a vibrant economic region with a national reputation for its high quality of life. Three of the U.S.’s largest corporations have their world headquarters in the region: Tyson Foods, J.B. Hunt Transportation, and the world’s largest retailer, Walmart, Inc. Because of their presence, many other corporations have established primary or secondary headquarters in Northwest Arkansas. Their close proximity to the U of A campus, along with their executives’ and employees’ active involvement in university life, offers students and faculty exceptional opportunities for research partnerships, internships, and post-graduation employment. The U of A boasts one of the most unique features and traditions found on any college or university campus: Senior Walk, a nearly three-mile stretch of concrete sidewalks crisscrossing campus into which the names of every U of A graduate is engraved. More than 140,000 names currently appear, grouped alphabetically by year of gradua-tion. Senior Walk epitomizes the university’s emphasis on “putting students first,” a philosophy captured in its tag line, “the YOU of A.” The U of A features distinctive architecture, including its signature building, Old Main, finished in 1875. As the original administrative facility, the iconic building now houses the J. William Fulbright College of Arts and Sciences. The college is named in

THE UNIVERSITY OF ARKANSAS

74

honor of former U of A President (and, later, U.S. Senator) J. William Fulbright, who helped create the prestigious international scholarship and fellowship programs that bear his name. The U of A’s distinctive Fulbright Peace Fountain, designed by architect Fay Jones, recognizes its namesake’s role in promoting peaceful resolution of world conflicts. Academically, the U of A is organized into 10 schools and colleges: the Dale Bumpers College of Agricultural, Food and Life Sciences; the College of Education and Health Professions; the College of Engineering; the J. William Fulbright College of Arts and Sciences; and the Sam M. Walton College of Business. The university also features the Fay Jones School of Architecture, the Gradu-ate School and International Education, the Honors College, the School of Law and the Global Campus, which provides academic outreach and programs to more than 15,000 learners a year. The U of A’s total annual operating budget for FY2012 is $528 million. Tuition and fee revenues make up the largest source of revenues, followed by an annual state appropriation. Almost 77 percent of all full-time undergraduate students receive some form of financial aid. U of A undergraduate tuition rates were ranked 38th lowest in the nation among land-grant universities, in keeping with the university’s emphasis on keeping itself accessible and affordable. In August 2011, the U of A enrolled a record 23,119 students. The student body consisted of students from all 50 states and more than 100 countries. More than 300 student organizations also exist on campus. There are plenty of things to do on- and off-campus. The HPER Center, the university’s state-of-the-art recreational facility, offers a great place to climb, swim, run, lift weights, do aerobics and yoga, or play basketball. Cultural and recreational options include attending lectures, readings, and theatrical performances, shopping opportunities, and listening to live music on nearby Dickson Street. In 2009, University Chancellor G. David Gearhart presented a long-range strategic plan that was formally endorsed by the elected leaders of the faculty, staff, and student body. The plan emphasizes a commitment to “students first,” and outlines goals and strategies to ensure that all students receive the resources and support they need to achieve their academic goals. The plan also emphasizes the U of A’s commitment to transparency and accountability to the people of Arkansas in its operation. More information about the U of A may be found at www.uark.edu.

SeniOr Walk The University of Arkansas is proud to be the last university in the nation main-taining what once was a common tradition of etching its graduates’ names into the campus sidewalks. The 100,000th gradu-ate’s name went down in cement during the 1990s. The names on Senior Walk stretch over three miles of campus sidewalks. The story of Senior Walk is a perfect ex-ample of how the University of Arkansas brings its commitment to the past together with innovations for the future. When the costs involved in hand-etching names into concrete forced numerous other universi-ties to give up, the University of Arkansas turned to its physical plant and engineer-ing school grads to create a one-of-a-kind computerized sandblasting machine -- the SandHog. Each summer, the SandHog roars across the front lawn of Old Main, etching the names of graduates into sidewalks.

Dr. G. David Gearhart became the chan-cellor of the University of Arkansas on July 1, 2008, following 10 years of service to the university as vice chancellor for university advancement. Previously he was senior vice president of Penn State University, during which time he was named a Fulbright Schol-ar, studying at Oxford University in Oxford, England. His Bachelor of Arts degree is from West-minster College in Missouri. Both his law degree and his doctor of education degree are from the University of Arkansas. He is a native of Fayetteville. Prior to being appointed chancellor, Dr. Gearhart oversaw the Campaign for the Twenty-First Century, the most successful capital campaign in Arkansas history, which raised more than $1 billion for academic programs. As chancellor, Dr. Gearhart instituted the first tuition freeze in 24 years and implemented a $220 million campus building renovation and refurbishment plan, as well as a campus-wide energy savings plan. He has also undertaken a renewed emphasis on the arts on campus, including the establishment of the “All Steinway Campus.” Dr. Gearhart has additionally implemented a major cost savings program that has already resulted in over $29.4 million in cost reduction and savings to the flagship campus. Campus enrollment has also grown by nearly 6,000 stu-dents in the past three years to almost 25,000 students. At the same time, diversity in the student body has increased significantly. He and his wife of more than 35 years, Jane, have two children and two grandchildren.

dr. SHarOn HunTFaCulTy aTHleTiCS repreSenTaTiVe Chancellor G. David Gearhart appointed Dr. Sharon Hunt to be the faculty athletics representative (FAR) for the University of Arkansas in August 2010. Dr. Hunt is the first woman and non-lawyer to hold the post. Dr. Hunt has been on the University of Arkansas faculty since 1990, and she served as the department head of the recently renamed Department of Health, Human Performance and Recreation from July 1,1990 until June 30, 2011 except for the 2000-01 academic year, when she served as the interim dean of the College of Education and Health Professions On June 30, 2011 Dr. Hunt stepped down as department head and returned to the faculty at the rank of Professor giving her more time to devote to the FAR position. A high school athlete, Hunt’s involvement with collegiate athletics dates back to her own college days at the University of Arkansas when she played extramural sports with the women’s basketball and tennis teams prior to the enactment of Title IX. After receiving her bachelor’s and master’s degrees in physical education from the university, she went on to earn a Doctor of Education degree from the University of Georgia, where she taught a variety of under-graduate courses as a graduate assistant. Upon the completion of her doctoral degree, she joined the faculty of the University of Kentucky for 13 years, where she taught both undergraduate and graduate courses and served as the graduate coordinator for the Department of Health, Physical Education and Recreation. In 1990, she and her family returned to Fayetteville. The FAR’s responsibilities lie in three broad areas: academic integrity within the athletics program, student-athlete well-being, and institutional control of the athletics program. Dr. Hunt is involved in the student-athlete advisory council on campus and chairs the Academic Credential Review Committee and Athletic’s Academic Integrity Committee, and serves as an ex-officio member of the Faculty Athletics Committee. In ad-dition, she travels to represent the University of Arkansas at various SEC and NCAA meetings. Dr. Hunt was instrumental in establishing the graduate athletic training education program in the College of Education and Health Professions, and she has worked closely with athletics on that program. The athletics department provides support to students in the athletic training educa-tion program in the form of a stipend, books and travel to the Arkansas Athletic Trainers’ Association annual meeting. Two endowed scholarships for athletic training students in honor of longtime Razorback trainers Dean Weber and the late Bill Ferrell were established through the athletics department. Dr. Hunt has been married to David Hunt since 1973, and they have an adult son and daughter as well as one grandson and granddaughter.

ARKANSAS LEADERS

Entering his fifth full year as Vice Chancellor and Director of Athletics, Jeff Long has guided the University of Arkansas’ Department of Intercollegiate Athletics through a period of unprecedented transition and gained national attention for his leadership while revitalizing a tradition-rich athletics pro-gram encompassing 19 sports and more than 460 student-athletes. Long leads a comprehensive athletics program uniformly committed to the development of student-athletes academically, athletically and socially. A part of Chancellor G. David Gearhart’s Executive Committee, Long is helping to chart the course for the future of higher education at the University of Ar-kansas while integrating Razorback Athletics into the campus community. In each of the past three years, Razorback Athletics has made a $1 million gift to support the university’s academic mission. The department’s total support of university and student programs and initiatives includes $1.9 million in direct funding of academic programs. Long’s leadership and unwavering commitment to the student-athletes and maintaining integrity within intercollegiate athletics has not gone un-noticed. In 2011-12, Long was named a finalist for the SportsBusiness Journal and SportsBusiness Daily Athletic Director of the Year. In the spring of 2012, the Donald W. Reynolds Foundation and longtime chairman Fred W. Smith made a gift of more than $1.25 million to the program in recognition of Long’s leadership of Razorback Athletics. In Long’s tenure, Arkansas has captured 11 conference championships and advanced to 68 post-season competitions, including the school’s first Bowl Championship Series appearance in football, while drawing more than a million fans annually to campus to cheer on the Razorbacks. In 2011-12, Arkansas finished No. 20 in the Learfield Sports Directors Cup, a year-long competition ranking the nation’s most successful intercollegiate athletic pro-grams, the fourth time in the past five years the Razorbacks have finished in the nation’s top 25. In the classroom, the Razorbacks continue to set new standards including posting a student-athlete grade point average of 3.07 in 2011-12. It marked the fourth consecutive year Razorback student-athletes posted a GPA exceeding 3.0. Arkansas exceeds the national APR multi-year rate by more than 10 points in 18 sports and has seen a steady rise in graduation success rates. Student-athlete development has also been a priority including the es-tablishment of the Razorback Leadership Academy, the first of its kind in the Southeastern Conference. In the community, Razorback student-athletes are more active than ever volunteering more than 5,000 hours of time for more than 100 agencies, organizations and schools. One of the nation’s most active athletic directors on Twitter, Long em-braces the opportunity to interact with members of the Razorback Nation whether in person or through social media. Long was selected to replace legendary athletic director and former Ra-zorback football coach Frank Broyles and even before he officially took the reins on Jan. 1, 2008, Arkansas announced that it would combine its previ-ously independent men’s and women’s athletic programs into one combined athletic program. Long adeptly blended the men’s and women’s athletic de-partments into one unified department and established a new administrative structure. Long has also worked tirelessly to maintain long-time relationships and to forge new relationships for the benefit of the Razorback program including extending Arkansas’ relationship with War Memorial Stadium and partnering with former Razorback Jerry Jones to develop the Southwest Classic, a football

series with Texas A&M played at the spec-tacular Cowboys Stadium. Under Long’s leadership, the program has fortified its financial standing ensuring more support for the development of stu-dent-athletes. According to the Wall Street Journal, Arkansas is one of only 22 self-sustaining Division I-A athletic programs in the nation. As economic indicators were beginning to point toward challenging eco-nomic times, Long signed Arkansas to a deal with IMG College to form Razorback Sports Properties that guarantees the Razorback program $73 million during the course of the decade-long agreement. Long also ne-gotiated an extensive all sports apparel and footwear agreement with NIKE, Inc. that will outfit all 19 Razorback sports programs through the 2014-15 season. In December 2011, Forbes Magazine estimated the value of the Razorback Football program at $89 million, eighth in the nation. Arkansas saw the largest increase (59%) from the previous rankings released in 2009. In 2010, Long moved to help meet the growing financial needs of field-ing a nationally competitive all sports program. The athletic department launched the “Answer the Call” campaign through the Razorback Foundation which resulted in more than 2,600 new members and helped generate more than $6.5 million in additional support for Razorback student-athletes. With an eye towards the future, Long commissioned a comprehensive plan to assess the future facility needs of the program. Unveiled in October 2011, the Razorback Athletic Facilities Master Plan provided a vision and the road map for $320 million of facility renovations and additions that will help all 19 Razorback sports remain competitive in the Southeastern Conference and nationally over the next 30 years. The first major project from the mas-ter plan, the football center, is currently being constructed with a targeted completion date in 2013. A veteran administrator with a track record of the highest commitment to the concept of “student-athlete,” Long has had more than two decades experience in athletic administration at the Division I level including at the University of Pittsburgh, University of Oklahoma, University of Michigan, Vir-ginia Tech University, Eastern Kentucky University and Rice University. Long also understands the coach’s perspective from time spent in coaching staff positions at Duke University, University of Michigan and North Carolina State University. His experience as an athletic director and administrator in five of the six Bowl Championship Series conferences – the Big 12, Big Ten, Big East, Atlantic Coast and SEC - gives Long a uniquely informed perspective on intercollegiate athletics. On the forefront of NCAA governance, Long has served on the NCAA Management Council, the NCAA’s Sports Wagering Task Force and as a mem-ber of the Executive Committee of the Division I-A Athletic Directors’ Associa-tion. Long currently serves on the NCAA Championships/Sports Management Cabinet. Prior to assuming his current roles at Arkansas, Long served for four years as the athletic director at the University of Pittsburgh. Long redefined Pitt ath-letics, most notably through the “Quest for Excellence” campaign that raised nearly $34 million to enhance the student-athlete experience. During his ten-ure the Panthers’ were selected as the No. 17 overall program in the nation in the December 2006 Sports Illustrated on Campus’ All-Sport Rankings. Before arriving at Pitt, Long was senior associate athletic director at Okla-homa for two and a half years overseeing external affairs for the Sooners. In addition, Long was the primary administrator for the Sooners’ highly success-ful football and men’s basketball programs, along with sport supervision of baseball, wrestling and both golf teams. Long’s first appointment as a director of athletics was at Eastern Ken-tucky where he served for two and a half years. Prior to Eastern, Long had a brief stay with Virginia Tech as an associate athletics director. He began his career in college athletic administration at Michigan, hired by legendary coach and athletics director, the late Bo Schembechler. During his seasons with the Wolverines, Long was promoted through a series of posts to the position of associate athletics director. A former two-sport athlete at Ohio Wesleyan, Long earned seven varsity letters for the Bishops in football and baseball before completing his degree in economics in 1982. He started his post-graduate career in athletics working on head coach Tom Reed’s staff as a graduate assistant football coach at the cradle of coaches, Miami University of Ohio. Long earned his master’s in education at Miami in 1983, moving on to football staff positions at Rice, Duke and N.C. State prior to joining Michigan. An Ohio native from Kettering, Long is married to the former Fanny Gellrich of Ann Arbor, Mich. The Longs have two daughters, Stephanie and Christina.
