Longwood University became the 12th member of the Big South Conference on July 1,2012. Since its founding in 1983, the Big South Conference has matured into a competitiveleader in college athletics, actively pursuing excellence on the field of play and in the class-room. The League’s growing presence as an NCAA Division I athletic conference is evidentby athletic accomplishments on the national stage, innovative marketing and media partner-ships, increased television packages, and quality athletic competition while intentionally fos-

tering the academic, personal, social, athletic and leadership development of each student-athlete. This has evolved into theConference’s mission of “Developing Leaders Through Athletics.” The 2012-13 academic year features the Big South’s largest mem-bership (12) and sponsored sports (19) in its 29 years of existence.

The Big South Conference was formed on August 21, 1983, when Charleston Southern (then Baptist College) Athletic DirectorHoward Bagwell and Augusta President George Christenberry began recruiting members into the Big South, receiving initial commit-ments from Augusta, Charleston Southern, Campbell, Coastal Carolina and Winthrop. One month later, Dr. Edward M. Singleton wasselected as the League’s first Commissioner and continued to solicit new members. His efforts led to the additions of Armstrong State,Radford and UNC Asheville, giving the Big South more than therequired six members to constitute an official conference. The BigSouth’s first year of competition was in the Fall of 1984, and inSeptember 1986, the Big South Conference was granted full-fledged NCAA Division I status.

In the last 15 years alone, the Big South Conference has expe-rienced monumental growth and success in nearly every sport.During this time, the Conference has had an individual NationalChampion six times, has had more than 280 All-Americans, hasreached the “Sweet 16” in men’s soccer, women’s basketball andbaseball, has received national Top 25 rankings in football, men’ssoccer, men’s basketball, women’s basketball, baseball, men’s out-door track & field, and men’s golf, had an individual selected toplay in the NCAA Singles Championship seven times in additionto the first men’s tennis doubles at-large selection, had the firstwomen’s golf program advance to the national finals, had the No.1 ranked men’s golfer in the country, had the nation’s top scoringmen’s basketball team five consecutive years as well as the nation-al men’s basketball scoring leader twice, received an at-large play-off berth in the Football Championship Subdivision in 2006, hashad six NFL Draft picks, and has had two institutions finish in thetop 10 in the NCAA Men’s Golf Championships -- including theConference’s highest-ever team finish in an NCAA event (fifth in2007).

The Conference’s tagline, “Developing Leaders Through Athletics” was unveiled in 2008-09 in conjunction with the Conference’s25th Anniversary. The League also honored its heritage with the Top 25 “Best of the Best” moments in League history from 1983-2008, with Liberty University’s 10-year women’s basketball championship run from 1996-2007 being crowned the No. 1 moment inthe Big South’s first 25 years. The Conference’s on-field accomplishments have been duplicated in the classroom. Annually, morethan 40 percent of Conference student-athletes are named to the Big South’s Presidential Honor Roll for maintaining a cumulative 3.0grade-point average, and the League has had more than 100 Academic All-Americans in its 28 years of existence. Furthermore, theBig South has recorded double figure totals in NCAA Public Recognition Awards for APR progress the last three years.

Coach Wright on the 2012 Fall Season

“Our team had four solid tournaments this past fall to begin our 2012-13 campaign. The consistency through these events was

outstanding considering our short roster. The first event at Yale University had a strong field and Amanda, Ariel, Ha and Hannah

played well finishing in the top half of the field. Amanda’s strong second round of 68 gave our team a boost ahead of the competitive

field. Ariel and Amanda had good events at Penn State University and both finished in the top 10 which kept our team in the top half

of the field. East Carolina University was a shortened event due to weather, which gave our team an opportunity to grind out a diffi-

cult round. Hannah finished in fourth place and gained valuable confidence in her game, while our team finished ahead of two top 50

ranked teams, which gave our team a confidence boost heading to Campbell University. We played at Campbell for the first time in

several years, and I was pleased to have beaten Campbell one out of three rounds on their home golf course. Ariel and Amanda tied

for third and Hannah finished in the top 10 giving us an opportunity to win going into the final round. Our final tournament at Furman

University was disappointing considering our success during the first four outings, but individually the team gained valuable lessons

to bring into the spring semester.”

Coach Wright Looking Ahead to the 2013 Spring Season

“We have added a new player to our team roster this spring which will give us an immediate boost during our first spring season

in the Big South Conference. We will begin the season at the University of Miami where we will compete against Big Ten Conference

and Atlantic Coast Conference teams. Our returning players are familiar with all four of our regular season tournament courses, so

we will look to be very competitive in each event. Our players have been able to visualize and make lofty goals because of their expe-

rience of playing at Deering Bay, Kiawah Island, Kingsmill Resort and the River Landing golf courses. We have always peaked at the

end of our spring season, and we are looking forward to giving our best effort in our first Big South Championship and to move onto

the NCAA Regional Tournament.”

CHAMPIOnSHIP TRADITIOn - HISTORy OF PROGRAM

The sport of women’s golf made its collegiate debut at Longwood in1966, founded by Dr. Barbara Smith, who would coach the highly successfulprogram for 26 years (1966-92). During a remarkable nine-year period from1987-1995, the program won five National Golf Coaches Association (NGCA)Division II Tournament Championships (1987-88, 1990, 1993, 1995); finish-ing as national runners-up four times (1989, 1991-92, 1994). Dr. Smith, alongwith her 1987 and 1988 NGCA Championship Teams, were inducted into theLongwood Athletics Hall of Fame Class of 2009.

Prior to beginning its NCAA Division I Reclassification in 2003-04,Longwood had qualified individuals to 20 consecutive NCAA Championships(Division I, 1984-95; Division II, 1996-2003) in addition to its outstandingteam successes. The Lancers have had two former standouts win a total of fiveindividual national titles: Tina Barrett, 1986-87 and Charlaine Coetzee, 1993-95, while also having the top Division II finisher in the NCAA Division IChampionships six times.

The most prominent of the many excellent women’s golf standouts atLongwood is Tina Barrett. A four-time All-American (1985-88), she was thetop Division II finish-er in the 1985, 1986,and 1988 NCAAChampionships. Asmentioned above,Barrett also claimed

two Division II individual titles while finishing second in 1988. She earnednational academic honors for three years as well (1986-88). Barrett has goneon to enjoy a successful professional career on the LPGA Tour that is current-ly in its 20th year.

Charlaine Coetzee followed Barrett in gaining national recognition, earn-ing All-America honors for four years as well (1992-95). She claimed threeDivision II individual titles while finishing fourth in 1992. Coetzee finishedin a tie for 34th at the 1994 NCAA Championship, the best finish ever for aLongwood golfer. She also earned multi-year national academic honors fortwo years (1994-95). Coetzee played professionally on the FUTURES Tourfor 10 years (1996-2005).

Longwood haswon 52 tournamentssince 1979 whileplaying against pre-dominantly Division Icompetition outsideof the five Division IInational championships. Twenty-three different Longwood women’s golfstandouts have received 46 All-America citations since 1981. Twelve differ-ent Lancer women’s golf standouts have received 31 national academic cita-tions since 1986.

Obviously, the biggest tournament wins in the program’s 41-year histo-ry have been the five NGCA National Championships. The first title team in1987 included Barrett, Marcia Melone, Gretchen Pugh, Ashley Warren, andTammy Lohren. Playing in Elkhorn, Wisconsin, the Lancers shot 327-321-309--957 to defeat Rollins (Fla.) (972) by 15 strokes, led by Barrett (81-78-79--238). On a side note from 1987, Melone ended Barrett's two-year run as thetop Division II finisher at the NCAA Championships when she shot a schoolrecord for 72-holes (78-79-74--305) to tie for 47th place -- a record that hasstood for 20 years. In 1988, almost the same group, with the addition of LeighRussell taking Lohren's spot, went to Dubuque, Iowa to win its second-straightNGCA national title. Longwood shot 312-308-322--942 to defeat Troy State(Ala.) (976) by 34 strokes, once again led by Barrett (75-74-77--226).

CHAMPIOnSHIP TRADITIOn - HISTORy OF PROGRAM

The Hall of Fame Class of 2009 team members from these two teamsincluded Tina Barrett, Leslie Oscovitch Gartner, Tammy Lohren, MarciaMelone, Libby Moore, Kim Poirier, Gretchen Pugh, Leigh Russell, and AshleyWarren.

Longwood claimed its third NGCA tournament championship in 1990with a team that featured Warren, a member of three title teams, along withAmi Schonauer, Sherry Evans, Heather Hartwick, and Daphne Sole. TheLancers, ironically, defeated Rollins again by 15 strokes with a team score of334-317-323--974 to 989 with Schonauer (83-78-77--238) leading the charge

in Amherst,Massachusetts.

L o n g w o o dwon its fourth NGCAnational title in 1993during the program’sfirst year under thedirection of formerhead coach Cindy Ho(1992-2002) whoreplaced the leg-endary Dr. Smith.Saving its best show-ing of the year forwhen it counted most, the Lancers shot 320-313-312--945 to defeat defendingnational champion and long-time Division II rival Rollins (984) by 39 strokesin South Hadley, Massachusetts. Longwood finished 1-2-3 in the individualstandings as Coetzee shot a 78-70-73--221 to win the first of her three nation-al titles. Team captain Anna Radford was second (78-77-79--234) and BrendaCampbell-Harris was third (80-81-75--236), followed by teammates AnnaHolm and Janine Ballow. Coetzee shot a school-record 71-71-70--212 to winthe individual title again in 1994, though Longwood was second behindRollins in the team standings.

Longwood won its fifth NGCA National Championship in 1995, defeat-ing Rollins by 16 strokes in New Palestine, Indiana. Coetzee won her third-straight individual national title with a 74-81-77--232 asLongwood finished at 324-328-317--969, playing its best round despite thunderstorms and two rain delays on the final day of the tour-nament. Rollins (327-326-332--985) trailed by just one stroke after 36 holes, but the Lancers increased their margin by 15 shots onthe final day. Coetzee was joined on that 1995 national championship team by Anna Holm, Karla Roberson, Frida Svensson, andMichelle Ziats.

Since that unprecedented nine-year period of finishing first or second at the national championships, Longwood made four moreappearances at the national tournament from 1998-2003. The highest finish by the Lancers during the five years prior to the Division

I Reclassification was a third-place finish in 1998 that produced a school-record team score for 72-holes (312-321-322-322--1277). Longwood was not eligible for any NCAA post-season team or individual competition during the recent four-year transition to

Division I (2003-07). That was unfortunate as the program featured two of its finest players ever in Stephanie Hicks (2002-06) andTiffany Woodyer (2002-05). Hicks capped an outstanding collegiate career with a new school record for season scoring average of74.90 over 20 rounds in 2005-06, surpassing Barrett’s previous record of 75.8 (1987-88). She also compiled a career scoring averageof 77.13, a new school-record at the time and still fourth-best behind current standout Amanda Steinhagen, Kameron Carter (2007-12)and Ariel Witmer. Hicks won four events during her career, and was named the 2005 Division I Independent Co-Player of the Yearwhile also a two-time Division I All-Independent first team selection. Woodyer compiled a 78.30 career scoring average at Longwoodwhich ranks sixth all-time. She earned NGCA Division II All-America second team honors in 2003, and was a first team Division IAll-Independent choice in 2005.

Longwood entered its official Division I era in September 2007, and the Lancers have continued the outstanding tradition ofwomen’s golf at the institution. Longwood finished 2007-08 with two tournament wins among five top-five team finishes in 10 events,averaging 311.86. The Lancers finished 2008-09 with two more tournament wins among eight top-five team finishes in 11 events,averaging 312.04. Longwood finished 2009-10 with one tournament win and three runner-up efforts among five top-five team finish-es in eight events, averaging 308.33. The Lancers finished 2010-11 with one tournament win and one runners-up placing among sixtop-five team finishes in 10 events, averaging 307.50. Longwood finished 2011-12 with one tournament win, two runners-up finishesand a third-place finish among eight top-10 team efforts overall with 18 top-20 individual finishes, averaging a new school-record 305.33.

LOnGWOOD UnIVERSITy 25

With a legacy of learning dating back more than 170 years,Longwood University has developed a meaningful learning environmentthat extends far beyond the classroom. Founded in 1839 as the FarmvilleFemale Seminary Association, the school was a pioneer first in privateand later in public education. The state of Virginia acquired the school in1884 and renamed it as the Normal School, the first state institution ofhigher learning for women in Virginia. Over the years, the schoolexpanded its curricula and had a succession of names, becomingLongwood College in 1949 and fully coeducational in 1976. On April24, 2002, history was again made at Longwood when Gov. Mark Warnersigned legislation that designated Longwood as a university, effectiveJuly 1, 2002.

The legacy that began in 1839 continues today as LongwoodUniversity offers more than 100 majors, minors and concentrations tomore than 4,800 students. Given its historical roots, LongwoodUniversity enjoys an enviable reputation for teacher preparation. But theexcellence has expanded throughout the university with strong programsin the liberal arts and sciences, business, and professional and pre-pro-fessional programs. Today the coeducational, comprehensive state uni-versity comprises four separate colleges: the Cook-Cole College of Artsand Sciences, the College of Business and Economics, the College ofEducation and Human Services and the College of Graduate andProfessional Studies. The graduate college offers programs in education,communication sciences and disorders, English and sociology, as well asan MBA degree.

Under the leadership of Interim President Marge Connelly,Longwood is committed to developing citizen leaders and provides ameaningful learning environment. Students get an excellent groundingin theory then translate their newly acquired knowledge into action bydoing research, internships, fieldwork and community service.Recognizing the value of experiential learning, Longwood is one of thefew universities in the country to require all students to complete aninternship or similar learning experience before graduation.Additionally, Longwood was the first institution in Virginia to requirethat every freshman have a laptop computer. Technology is integratedthroughout the learning process—an essential element for preparing theleaders of tomorrow.

The Greenwood Library supports Longwood’s mission of develop-ing citizen leaders through a comprehensive array of services andresources. It is a learning-centered environment that fosters intellectualexchange, scholarly communication, cultural enrichment, lifelong infor-mation literacy and creative expression. In addition, the library provides

more than 343,000 titles, 8,000 DVDs, 5,100 CDs, 900 print journal sub-scriptions, and 160 electronic databases with access to more than 51,000full-text electronic journals. The library also provides integrated technol-ogy for information retrieval from libraries throughout the world. Thisstate-of-the-art facility is named in honor of Longwood’s 22nd president,Dr. Janet Daly Greenwood who served from 1981 to 1987.

Longwood provides a range of business services to the region andstate through the Longwood Small Business Development Center, whilethe Longwood Center for the Visual Arts serves as an important andinnovative study center and cultural resource for the Commonwealth ofVirginia.

Longwood University also has a tremendous economic and cultur-al impact on Farmville and the surrounding communities. A study con-ducted by the Longwood Small Business Development Center estimatesthat university employees, students and visitors spent more than $90 mil-lion in 2007—with 66 percent of that amount being spent in Farmvilleand the eight surrounding counties.

The Longwood campus, located in the heart of historic Farmville,Va., provides excellent facilities while reflecting the charm, beauty andcharacter associated with its long heritage. The campus community wasenhanced with the opening of Brock Commons, a beautiful pedestrianpromenade that provides a central focal point for the Longwood campuswhile eliminating traffic congestion and safety hazards. Fountains,walkways, outdoor sculpture and beautiful landscaping contribute toBrock Commons, creating a parklike atmosphere for students, faculty,staff and the public.

Longwood’s signature building, Ruffner Hall, was rededicated onApril 23, 2005, and replicates the university’s most beloved building andits beautiful rotunda, dating to the 1880s, which burned on April 24,2001, while undergoing a $12 million renovation. The original eightpaintings on the interior of the rotunda dome, created in 1905 by theItalian-born artist Eugene D. Monfalcone of Richmond, have beenreturned to the dome following an extensive restoration that was underway prior to the fire. The historic Joan of Arc statue, known affection-ately as “Joanie on the Stony,” was also restored recently and returned toits place of honor on the main floor beneath the rotunda. The larger-than-life sculpture is a reproduction of the famous 1870 original created byFrench sculptor Henri-Michel-Antoine Chapu. The statue was a gift ofthe Class of 1914 and symbolizes Joan of Arc as the patron saint ofLongwood.

Ruffner Hall was reconstructed in the classic style based on theoriginal blueprints and drawings from the state archives in Richmond.

The 83,143-square-foot building houses 22 classrooms, four aca-demic departments, the offices of the Vice President for AcademicAffairs and the deans of the College of Graduate and ProfessionalStudies and the Cook-Cole College of Arts and Sciences, named forbenefactors Dr. John R. Cook (Class of 1952) and Dr. Waverly M. Cole.

Between Ruffner Hall and Blackwell Hall, a sunlit hallway formsthe Cole Gallery, which features a collection of more than 500 pieces of19th-century Bohemian glass, Meissen porcelain and English potterydonated to the Longwood Center for the Visual Arts by Dr. Cole.Standing guard over this rare collection of decorative arts, with hersword held high, is the recently renovated equestrian statue of Joan ofArc, or “Joanie on the Pony,” by Anna Vaughn Hyatt Huntington.

Adjoining the Cole Gallery is Blackwell Hall, opened in 1920 asthe campus dining hall. This historic facility, which survived the GreatFire of 2001, was named in the mid-1970s in memory of Dr. Herbert R.Blackwell, professor of English and dean of the college. Today, follow-ing a recent renovation and conversion, Blackwell Hall has a new roleproviding space for social, cultural and educational events for the cam-pus and community. Along with Blackwell Hall, the extensive renova-tion included the adjacent Virginia and Prince Edward meeting rooms.

The Chichester Science Center opened Dec. 6, 2005. The 70,822-

The flexible inte-rior design provides space for banquets, meetings and special eventsalong with a Grand Dining Room seating 500 and an arcade seating anadditional 700.

In fall 2009, the Center for Communication Studies and Theatreopened a new era for one of Longwood’s fastest-growing programs. Thethree-story, 41,983-square-foot building is home to the Department ofCommunication Studies and Theatre and Longwood Theatre produc-tions, and is situated between the south end of Bedford Hall and FranklinStreet across from the Hull Education Center. The new building featuresa highly flexible 174-seat “black box” theater, in which the seats andstage can be moved around. A studio theater, of about 80 seats and alsoflexible, will be used for student productions. There is also a scene shop,a costume shop and a drafting lab. The center also houses the JackBlanton Gallery, which features more than 160 of the 230 pieces of art-work donated by Jack Blanton to the Longwood Center for the VisualArts.

COMMOnWEALTH OF VIRGInIA

The Commonwealth of Virginia is one of the original 13 colonies.Named for the Virgin Queen, Elizabeth I of England, Virginia wasEngland’s first successful overseas colony and the site of the first perma-nent English settlement in America. West Virginia was part of Virginiauntil 1863.

Virginia’s rich political heritage helped shape the democratic prin-ciples on which the United States was founded. Virginia played animportant role in the American Revolution (1775-1783), and it enteredthe Union as the 10th of the original 13 states on June 25, 1788. Duringthe American Civil War (1861-1865) the state’s capital, Richmond, wasalso capital of the Confederacy. The state has long been nicknamed OldDominion.

George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, and JamesMonroe, all Virginians, were founding fathers of the United States andwere among the first five U.S. presidents. Virginia is also the birthplaceof U.S. presidents William Henry Harrison, John Tyler, Zachary Taylor,and Woodrow Wilson.

Virginia is the 35th largest state in the United States, bounded onthe east by the Atlantic Ocean, on the north and east by Maryland andthe District of Columbia, on the west by West Virginia and Kentucky,and on the south by Tennessee and North Carolina.

According to the 2010 national census, Virginia’s population was8,001,024, ranking it 12th among the states. Virginia Beach (435,619)is one of the most popular resort destinations on the East Coast, as wellas Virginia’s largest city. Richmond (192,913) is the state capital and acenter of banking and insurance, and of both retail and wholesale trade.The Naval Base at Norfolk (229,112) and the Naval Shipyard atPortsmouth (101,377) employ thousands of civilians and military per-sonnel. Hampton (145,017) is important for its aviation activities suchas Langley Air Force Base and a National Aeronautics and SpaceAdministration (NASA) facility. In Newport News (178,281) is a ship-yard that builds naval ships, including aircraft carriers. Alexandria(136,974) is part of the Washington, D.C., metropolitan area. Lynchburg(67,720) is the site of light industries. Roanoke (91,552) is the largestcity in western Virginia.

Civilian and military employment, mostly with the federal govern-ment, is an essential part of the Virginia economy. The Pentagon, which

houses the Department of Defense, is located in Virginia and is the lead-ing federal employer in the northern part of the state. There are alsoimportant military bases in Virginia, particularly the massive complex ofarmy, navy, and air force bases in the vicinity of Norfolk.

Average January temperatures range from less than 32°F in the westto more than 42°F in southeastern Virginia. Average July temperaturesrange from more than 78°F in the southeast to less than 68°F in the west-ern mountains. Total precipitation ranges from about 35 to more than 50inches. Snowfalls are moderate, except in the mountain regions.

Besides Virginia, three other states - Kentucky, Massachusetts andPennsylvania - use the term commonwealth as part of their officialnames. The delegates to the convention in Williamsburg, when the firstConstitution of Virginia was adopted on June 29, 1776, used common-wealth as the name for the new form of government. It is very likelythey had in mind the Puritans’ rebellion against the Crown in Englandmore than 100 years earlier.

Pennsylvania and Massachusetts also chose to be called common-wealths after independence from Great Britain. The other 10 formercolonies took the name “state,” the term used in the Declaration ofIndependence. Kentucky was once part of Virginia. When Kentuckiansjoined the Union as the 15th state in 1792, it also kept the name com-monwealth.
