ATHLETIC DIRECTOR

On April 25, 2002, Daniel G. Guerrero was named UCLA’s eighth Director of Athletics. A former Bruin baseball player, Guerrero, who assumed his duties on July 1, 2002, has enjoyed great success and exudes the pride of a student-athlete who is now calling the shots at his alma mater.

Guerrero, one of the most respected and talented administrators in in-tercollegiate athletics, has placed his mark on the program as the director of athletics at UCLA. He is currently serving as the chair of the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Committee and is in his fi fth year on that com-mittee. In addition, he is the second vice-president of the National Assn. of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA), serves on the NACDA Executive Committee and is also the fi rst vice-president of the Division I Athletic Directors Association. He recently completed his service as chair of the NCAA’s Division I Men’s Basketball Academic Enhancement Group. In June of 2007, he was named NACDA Division I West Region Athletic Director of the Year.

In his seven years as AD, Guerrero has clearly established a pattern of “im-age and substance” that few in his profession can match. UCLA stands as the No. 1 University in the nation for NCAA team championships (104) won, a number that continues to grow under his direction. In those seven years, UCLA teams have won 18 NCAA team titles (the highest total in the nation in that span) in 11 different sports, fi nished second 14 times and have had an additional 24 Top Five fi nishes (67 total).

UCLA also played in its sixth consecutive bowl game and won four conference championships and two league tournaments.

UCLA FOOTBALL - THEN ... NOW ... FOREVER162

In 2003-04, the Bruins won four NCAA titles (women’s outdoor track and fi eld, softball, women’s golf and women‘s gymnastics). They also placed second in men’s tennis, women’s tennis and men’s golf, tied for third in women’s soccer, tied for fi fth in men’s soccer and women’s volleyball, fi fth in women’s indoor track and fi eld and seventh in women’s swimming and women’s cross country. In addition, the Bruins captured seven league titles.

In Guerrero’s fi rst year at UCLA (2002-03), UCLA won four NCAA titles (men’s soccer, women’s gymnastics, women’s water polo and women’s soft-ball). The Bruins placed third in men’s golf, tied for third in men’s tennis, tied for fi fth in women’s golf and women’s tennis, eighth in women‘s outdoor track and fi eld, tied for eighth in women’s indoor track and fi eld and tied for ninth in women’s soccer. UCLA also earned six conference titles.

Over the past seven years, Guerrero has earned numerous honors. In June of 2007, he was named the NACDA Division I West Region Athletic Director of the Year. His other honors include 2002 UCLA Latino Alumnus of the Year (October 2002); Cal State Dominguez Hills’ Alumnus of the Year (March 2003); and 2003 “Father of the Year” by the Father’s Day Council of the American Diabetes Association (June). On September 10, 2002, the Los Angeles City Council honored him with Dan Guerrero Day. He also became the fi rst athlete in any sport at Banning (Wilmington, CA) High School to have his jersey (#8 in baseball) retired (2003).

Guerrero was named one of the nation’s Top 100 Most Infl uential Hispanics by Hispanic Business Magazine (October 2004) and the May 5, 2003 issue of Sports Illustrated listed him #28 among the 101 Most Infl uential Minorities in Sports. He was one of 28 people whose photo was featured on that issue’s cover.

In addition to unparalleled success in the playing arena, his seven years at the helm have also demonstrated the overall excellence Guerrero has made a priority for the program. Belief in conducting a program of integrity has been a cornerstone of Guerrero’s leadership throughout his career. Named as a 1999 Sports Ethics Fellow by the Institute for International Sport, Guerrero has fostered a strong sense of commitment and dedication among his coaches and staff to the development of the total student-athlete experience. He has also served as an Executive Board member of the National Consortium for Academics and Sport for over a decade and is resolute in his desire to support academic achievement and life skills development for UCLA student-athletes. As a result, he has spearheaded unprecedented growth in the Academic Support and Life Skills program at UCLA. In Guerrero’s seven and two-thirds years (20 quarters), student-athletes earned 4,744 spots on the Director’s Honor Roll (3.0 or higher grade-point average for a quarter) and community service activities for the program are at an all-time high.

Resource development has always been a strength for Guerrero and his tenure at UCLA has demonstrated continued evidence of this skill. In 2004-05, he successfully negotiated two blockbuster deals: a new multi-million dollar agreement with ISP Sports, a premier national collegiate sports

marketing organization, and a six-year, multi-million dollar extension with adidas, equipment provider for all of UCLA’s 24 sports.

Guerrero also led the negotiations that solidifi ed the relationship between UCLA and the Rose Bowl, inking a 20-year agreement, which included over $13 million in facility enhancements to benefi t the UCLA football program. He has also reorganized the External Relations area, integrating Corporate Sponsorships, Marketing and Development under one umbrella, in anticipation of a major revenue generating initiative designed to address capital project needs, operational support and program endowments.

Under Guerrero’s guidance, UCLA continues to aggressively enhance its athletic facilities, including the completion of the Bud Knapp Football wing of the Acosta Center, and the sports medicine and athletic performance centers in the same complex. A new golf practice facility and the Easton Softball Stadium renovation, benefi tting the Bruins’ golf and softball powers, respectively, were completed for the 2004-05 season. The installation of synthetic turf at Spaulding Field was completed in 2006, the fi nal phase of the Acosta Center project (Olympic sport locker rooms) was completed in 2007. Spieker Aquatic Center was completed in the summer of 2009. The renovation of Pauley Pavilion is the next project slated for completion.

Guerrero has extensive experience in committee work at both the NCAA and conference level. He is serving his fi fth year as a member of the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Committee (he is the 2009-10 chair) and also served on the “College Basketball Partnership,” a group formed by NCAA president Myles Brand, that included many of the most infl uential people in the sport. He has served as Chair of both the Pac-10 Athletic Directors Committee and the Budget and Finance Committee, has served on several Pac-10 committees and is currently a member of the Pac-10 Television and Rose Bowl Management committees. He has also served on other NCAA committees, including the NCAA Division I Baseball Committee and the Baseball Academic Enhancement Committee and at the time of his hire by UCLA was serving as the second vice president of the Division I-AAA Athletic Director’s Association.

Guerrero came to UCLA from UC Irvine, where he had served as UCI’s fi fth permanent Director of Athletics for 10 years (1992-2002). The broad competitive success of its athletic teams, the academic excellence of its student-athletes, the development of new and improved facilities and en-hanced relations with the UCI community, refl ect the progress UC Irvine Athletics experienced under Guerrero’s direction. During his tenure, the program continued to accumulate conference championships, garner national rankings, feature graduation rates among the nation’s best, and win numerous post-season honors for its student-athletes. In June of 2002 while still at UC Irvine, he was named the 2001-02 Division I-AA/I-AAA West Region NACDA Athletic Director of the Year.

Resulting from Guerrero’s resourcefulness and creativity, UCI experienced unprecedented activity in the area of athletic facilities development. In his fi nal fi ve years, Guerrero was the driving force behind $38 million of newly constructed or renovated facilities. These projects included a newly reno-vated track and soccer complex, a new 64-meter competitive swimming pool, a new baseball stadium and the Anteater Recreation Center, one of the premier recreation centers in the country.

Prior to arriving at UC Irvine, Dan came from Cal State Dominguez Hills, where he led that program to national prominence while serving as Athletic Director for fi ve years (1988-92).

Guerrero received his Bachelor’s degree from UCLA in 1974 and played second base in the Bruin baseball program for four years. His batting average in Pacifi c-8 Conference games over three seasons as a varsity performer was .343. Guerrero, known as “Warrior” during his playing career, was inducted into the UCLA Baseball Hall of Fame in 1996. The Bruin Athletic Director earned a Master’s degree in Public Administration in 1982 from Cal State Dominguez Hills and was named to the Pi Alpha Alpha Honor Society for Public Affairs and Public Policy that same year.

Guerrero, born on November 10, 1951 in Tucson, AZ, was raised in Wilm-ington, CA. He is married to the former Anne Marie Aniello and they have two grown daughters: Jenna and Katie.

UCLA FOOTBALL - THEN ... NOW ... FOREVER 163

When it comes to athletic success, UCLA ranks second to none, as evi-denced by its 104 NCAA team championships. Over the past three-plus decades, no school can match UCLA’s combination of NCAA team and individual championships, football bowl games, men’s basketball NCAA Tournament appearances and Olympic participation. In April of 2005, Sports Illustrated On Campus stated that “UCLA has the most complete athletic program in the country.”

In 2007-08, UCLA placed second nationally in competition for the annual NACDA Directors’ Cup for the third consecutive year. The cup recognizes the school with the best overall sports performance each year and awards points based on fi nishes in NCAA competition. UCLA has fi nished in the Top Six in 15 of the 16 years of the Directors’ Cup, placing second in 2007-08, 2006-07, 2005-06, 2000-2001, 1999-2000 and 1995-96, third in 2004-05, 2003-04, 1996-97, 1994-95 and 1993-94, fourth in 1997-98, fi fth in 1998-99 and 2001-2002, sixth in 2002-2003 and 16th in 2008-09.

This past year, UCLA won its fi fth consecutive NCAA women’s water polo championship. The Bruins fi nished second in women’s golf, tied for third in women’s soccer (sixth straight College Cup) and men’s tennis, placed seventh in women’s gymnastics and ninth (tied) in softball, women’s volleyball and women’s tennis, 16th (tied) in women’s outdoor track and fi eld and 17th (tied) in men’s basketball. UCLA also won six conference titles.

In 2007-08, UCLA won three NCAA championships in women’s water polo (fourth straight), women’s tennis (fi rst) and men’s golf (second). The Bruins fi nished second in women’s golf, tied for third in men’s basketball (third straight Final Four), women’s soccer and men’s tennis, placed fi fth (tied) in women’s volleyball and softball, seventh in women’s gymnastics, 14th in men’s indoor track and fi eld and 17th (tied) in baseball and men’s soccer. UCLA also played in its sixth consecutive bowl game and won fi ve conference championships and two league tournaments.

In 2006-07, UCLA won an NCAA championship in women’s water polo, the school’s 100th NCAA team title, and placed second in men’s soccer and women’s tennis, third in women’s golf, tied for third in men’s basketball, women’s soccer and women’s volleyball, fourth in women’s gymnastics, fi fth in women’s outdoor track and fi eld, tied for fi fth in men’s tennis, seventh in men’s golf and women’s indoor track and fi eld, ninth in men’s outdoor track and fi eld and tied for ninth in baseball.

COMBINED PROGRAMUCLA has won more NCAA team championships than any school in the nation — 104 (71 men’s and 33 women’s), including 18 in the last seven years, more than any other school in the country. Those 104 titles have been won in 17 different programs. In the 28 years that the NCAA has awarded both men’s and women’s championships, UCLA has won 64 NCAA team titles (31 men’s and 33 women’s). Overall, UCLA has won a nation-leading total of 125 collegiate championships — 104 NCAA crowns and 21 other titles.

UCLA has won at least one NCAA team title (men’s or women’s) in 27 of the last 29 years. In addition, the school has won at least one collegiate title (NCAA or AIAW) in 43 of the last 46 years, missing only in 1979-80, 1993-94 and 2001-02. Over the last 38 years, UCLA has won at least two collegiate titles 29 times.

UCLA has placed amongst the top fi ve schools in 14 of the 16 years of the Directors’ Cup. In 1992-93, UCLA earned the award as the nation’s top combined program, according to the annual USA Today All-Sports Survey. Prior to 1993-94, USA Today conducted separate surveys for men’s and women’s programs. In the 23-year history of the All-Sports Survey for men’s programs (formerly conducted by the Knoxville Journal), UCLA fi nished fi rst 11 times (no other school had more than six titles), second seven times, third once and fourth once and was in the top 10 each year. The Bruins won fi ve of the last eight men’s surveys and placed fi fth in 1993. In the women’s survey (formerly sponsored by the Santa Monica Evening Outlook), UCLA won 10 titles in 18 years, including four straight (1988-1991), and fi nished second in 1992 and 1993.

In the last 40 years, the Bruin men have won 57 NCAA championships, nine more than second-place Stanford and 29 more than third-place USC. Eight times they have won at least three titles in a single year. UCLA is the only school to win four men’s titles in a single year more than once, accomplishing the feat in 1969-70 (basketball, tennis, volleyball, and water polo), 1970-71 (basketball, tennis, volleyball, and outdoor track) and 1971-72 (basketball, volleyball, outdoor track, and water polo).

In 1981-82, the fi rst year in which the NCAA hosted women’s champion-ships, UCLA became the fi rst school in history to win fi ve NCAA titles (men’s swimming, men’s tennis, men’s volleyball, softball, and women’s track) in a single year.

UCLA is among the world's leading research universities, known for the breadth and quality of its academic, research, health care, cultural, continuing education and athletic programs. A shared public asset, UCLA enriches our neighborhoods, our nation and our world on a daily basis by creating knowledge, educating students, powering the economy and serving the community. Many of its 11 professional schools and academic departments and programs are ranked among the best in the nation. UCLA is a university with the size and scope to allow for unimagined diversity, unmatched breadth and depth of scholarship, and limitless possibility for its 26,500 undergraduates and 11,500 graduate students.

FACULTY, STUDENTS & ALUMNIFive UCLA faculty have been awarded Nobel Prizes — the two most recent are Louis Ignarro in medicine (1998) and biochemist Paul Boyer in chemistry (1997). Among faculty there have been nine National Medals of Science recipients, and hundreds of Guggenheim Fellowships, Fulbright Awards and other academic distinctions. At UCLA, thousands of students extend their educations beyond the classroom by working directly with faculty on research projects. Many UCLA undergraduates participate in major research studies, working one-on-one with world-renowned scholars as they discover and create new knowledge. UCLA’s alumni are bright stars on the world stage. They include leaders of industry and commerce — Oscar, Grammy, Tony, and Emmy winners; philanthropists and public servants; Olympians and professional athletes; educators, engineers, bankers, and astronauts. Founded in 1934, the UCLA Alumni Association serves 88,000 members, part of the larger network of more than 380,000 UCLA alumni, with a comprehensive array of services, programs and activities.

BOOKS & TECHNOLOGY The UCLA Library is ranked among the top ten academic research libraries in North America with holdings of more than eight million volumes as well as digital resources and services. From the birth of the Internet at UCLA in 1969, UCLA continues to be a leader in resources for learning. UCLA is nationally recognized for developing ground-breaking computer services for undergraduates and was the fi rst university to have a Web site for every undergraduate student. The university provides an innovative, on-line tool called “myucla.edu,” which provides a Web page tailored to each student’s academic needs.

OUTREACH & COMMUNITY SERVICE From its founding, UCLA has been an integral and contributing part of the greater Los Angeles community. Outreach programs and volunteerism are as much a part of UCLA as academics and research, with hundreds of UCLA-sponsored programs providing a wide range of opportunities. Many of UCLA's undergraduates volun-teer for these programs, including tutoring youths, adults and incarcerated youths; addressing health and educational needs of underserved communities; combating poverty and homelessness; aiding the elderly and disabled; and providing legal, social, medical and educational assistance to community residents.

Through outreach and academic preparation programs, UCLA works with K-12 schools throughout Los Angeles to help greater numbers of students prepare to compete successfully for college. UCLA also partners with community colleges to increase the number of underrepresented students transferring to the university. Additionally, UCLA faculty, researchers and students provide leadership and public service in health care, law, economic development, social welfare, urban planning, public policy, arts and the environment. Most academic departments have major re-

search projects, fi eld studies or student internships that directly affect people’s lives in Los Angeles, the state and the nation.

HEALTH CARE UCLA Health System has been a leader in patient care, medical research and teaching for more than 50 years. Today, our physicians provide an array of cutting-edge and research-based primary and specialty services in four hospitals on two campuses, and in more than 75 clinic locations. Physicians provide specialty services in offi ces located on the Westwood campus and throughout Santa Monica. Primary care physicians provide healthcare for children and adults in community offi ces from Manhattan Beach to Malibu. Patients from Southern California, the U.S. and around the globe enter our clinics more than one million times annually, and our hospitals, more than 80,000 times a year to be treated at the world-renowned Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center, the Santa Monica-UCLA Medical Center and Orthopaedic Hospital, primary care offi ces and community outreach health programs. The four schools in the medical enterprise are medicine, dentistry, nursing and public health. The Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center has been ranked as one of the top hos-pitals in the country by U.S. News & World Report, including “Best in the West” for 19 consecutive years. A new state-of-the-art medical center, which includes the Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center, Stewart and Lynda Resnick Neuropsychiatric Hospital and Mattel Children’s Hospital UCLA, opened in the summer of 2008. Santa Monica-UCLA Medical Center and Orthopaedic Hospital's rebuilding project is

scheduled for completion in late 2010. Groundbreaking research is constantly taking place in the Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center, the Gonda (Goldschmied) Neuroscience and Genetics Research Center and in many other centers and laboratories on campus.

ARTS A diverse array of public arts programming makes UCLA the leading arts and cultural center of the West. More than 500,000 people annually attend arts events including theater, music, opera and dance performances, lectures, poetry readings, exhibitions, fi lm screenings, and media arts that are presented by UCLA’s two professional arts schools. Check the web sites at www.arts.ucla.edu and www.tft.ucla.edu for more information.

UCLA FOOTBALL - THEN ... NOW ... FOREVER170

The UCLA Athletics Hall of Fame enters its 26th year of its existence and its ninth in a new location facing Westwood Plaza. The current Hall of Fame, double the size of its predecessor, opened in July of 2001.

The fi rst fl oor in the east wing of the J.D. Morgan Athletics Center features the 8,000-square foot Athletics Hall of Fame and serves as the main entrance to the Department of Intercollegiate Athletics.

The Hall of Fame features state-of-the-art interactive displays; a mini-theater where Bruin video clips and highlights re-create past championship moments; a timeline of important U.S., California and UCLA dates showing how sports weave into the great moments in history; a collection of Bruin memorabilia and much more.

UCLA athletic teams have won 104 NCAA team championships and each of those fi rst-place trophies grace the Hall of Champions. Other exhibits include photos of UCLA’s fi rst-team All-Americans in football and basketball, Gary Beban’s Heisman Trophy, Wooden Awards won by Marques Johnson and Ed O’Bannon and a special display highlighting all of UCLA’s Honda and Broderick Cup winners. Displays on UCLA’s football bowl victories, the Bruins’ NCAA basketball tradition and UCLA’s Olympic Games medal winners are featured in the new Hall of Fame.

Each of UCLA’s sports has its own individual display area within the Hall of Fame. In addition, there are displays honoring Jackie Robinson, UCLA’s Academic All-Americans and women in sports. There are also sample lockers of former Bruin greats in various sports.

UCLA FOOTBALL - THEN ... NOW ... FOREVER 171

The nation’s most famous college football stadium — The Rose Bowl — is now in its 28th season as the home of the UCLA Bruin football team. One of the fi nest football stadiums in America, the Rose Bowl was built specifi cally for football, but was used for portions of the 1932 Olympic Games and was also the soccer site for the 1984 Olympics. The Rose Bowl has also been the site of four Super Bowls, most recently Super Bowl XXVII on January 31, 1993, and was a venue for the 1994 World Cup and 1999 Women’s World Cup soccer tournaments, including the championship games.

On January 7, 2010, the Rose Bowl will play host to the Bowl Championship Series (BCS) National Championship for the third time. The last time Pasadena welcomed the BCS National Championship football game, Texas bested USC to win the title on January 4, 2006. Miami won the fi rst BCS National Championship contest played in the Rose Bowl, defeating Nebraska on January 3, 2003 at the Rose Bowl.

Beginning with the 2007 season, UCLA and its opponents dressed in new state-of-the-art locker rooms. Located underneath the south concourse of the stadium, the locker area features all of the latest amenities to benefi t the players, coaches, sports medicine staff and equipment staff. A new media interview room and working area was included as part of the upgrades. These items were the fi rst step in a $16.3 million capital improvement program launched by the Rose Bowl and the City of Pasadena that will benefi t both UCLA and the Tournament of Roses.

In 1998, new individual chairs were installed in the seating areas between the end

zones as part of a plan to bring the Rose Bowl into the 21st Century as America’s premier college football stadium. Also, improved seating areas for the physically challenged have been installed, as has a new sound system. In 1997, a state-of-the-art video board, as well as new matrix-style scoreboards, were added to the the Rose Bowl. In the last few years, new concession stands and restrooms have been built and the team dressing rooms have been renovated.

Prior to the 1992 season, the Rose Bowl built a new three-level press box. In addi-tion to modern facilities for the print and electronic media, the new press box has two levels of executive and club suites, some of which are still available for lease. Three elevators service this state-of-the-art facility. In addition, the Rose Bowl also received a new state-of-the art lighting system prior to the 1992 season, including new lights, fi xtures and towers.

Completed in 1922, the Rose Bowl was fi rst used for the USC-California game that year. The stadium was horseshoe shaped and seated 57,000 persons when it hosted the 1923 Rose Bowl Game. The south end was enclosed prior to the 1929 game and enlarged to seat 76,000 spectators. Demands for more and more seats led to further enlargements; to 83,677 in 1932 and to 100,807 in 1949.

With the new seating confi guration, the current seating capacity is 91,136, though a record 106,869 witnessed the 1973 USC-Ohio State Rose Bowl contest.

In conjunction with UCLA’s move in 1982 and the Olympics, a Rose Bowl improve-ment program resulted in the refurbishing of the press box, adding permanent concession stands and backs for more than 50,000 seats. In recent years, all of those areas have enjoyed additional enhancements.

The Rose Bowl has many fi rsts to its record. On Jan. 1, 1927, radio stations across the nation were linked together for the fi rst time in a coast-to-coast broadcast. On Jan. 1, 1954, the UCLA-Michigan State Rose Bowl Game was the fi rst west-to-east color telecast on a nationwide hookup.

The Rose Bowl has 77 rows of seats. It measures 880 feet from the north to south rims and 695 from east to west. Its circumference around the rim is 2,430 feet, com-pared to 1,350 feet at fi eld level. It took 28 miles of lumber to provide the original

The UCLA Athletics Campaign has endowed 205 of the 282 NCAA allowable athletic grants-in-aid. UCLA Athletics expresses its sincere gratitude to the individuals listed for their support in the continuing effort to distinguish UCLA as the nation’s premier academic and athletics institution.

An endowment generates income to the University in perpetuity. By investing the gift principal and using just the interest earned to help meet the cost of a grant-in-aid assures the Athletic Department of on-going funds to maintain the quality and diversity of its program.

Currently, UCLA provides fi nancial assistance to over 400 student-ath-letes participating in 24 intercollegiate sports. However, expenses such as the cost of tuition for student-athletes have increased dramatically in the last several years while department revenues have remained relatively stable.

Tax-deductible gifts to the Wooden Athletic Fund play a pivotal role in meeting the escalating costs of team travel, recruiting, equipment replacement and, most importantly, in providing athletic scholarships. Now more than ever, private support is necessary if UCLA is to maintain its position as the best athletic program in the country. Your help is truly needed and greatly appreciated.

To encourage private support of our program, the best football and basketball tickets are allocated to our most generous donors. Members of the Wooden Athletic Fund receive priority in the assignment of tickets for home contests in the Rose Bowl and in Pauley Pavilion in accordance with the UCLA Priority Seating Policy. Please refer to the donor benefi ts chart to determine season ticket opportunities. In many cases, special reserved parking is also available for our donors.

If you have any questions regarding the Wooden Athletic Fund or the benefi ts members receive, please contact the Athletic Development Offi ce at 310/206-3302.

Entering the 2009-10 school year, the Pacifi c-10 Conference continues to uphold its tradition as the "Conference of Champions."® Pac-10 members have claimed an incredible 170 NCAA team titles over the past 19 seasons, for an average of almost nine championships per academic year.

Even more impressive is the breadth of the Pac-10’s success, as those 170 team titles have come in 26 different men’s and women’s sports. The Pac-10 has led the nation in NCAA Championships 43 of the last 49 years and fi nished second fi ve times.

Spanning nearly a century of outstanding athletics achievement, the Pac-10 has captured 382 NCAA titles (264 men’s, 118 women’s), far outdistancing the runner-up Big Ten Conference's 221 titles.

The Conference’s reputation is further proven in the annual Leerfi eld Sports Directors’ Cup competi-tion, the prestigious award that honors the best overall collegiate athletics programs in the country. STANFORD won the Directors’ Cup and while USC, CALIFORNIA, ARIZONA STATE, WASHINGTON and UCLA also placed in the Top 20.

The Pac-10 captured 11 NCAA titles in 2008-09 to fi nish fi rst nationally, and has won 24 titles in the last two years. NCAA team champions from the Pac-10 came from UCLA (women’s water polo), ARIZONA STATE (women’s golf), CALIFORNIA (women’s swimming and diving), OREGON (men’s cross country and men’s indoor track), STANFORD (men’s gymnastics and women’s rowing), USC (men’s water polo and men’s tennis) and WASHINGTON (women’s cross country and softball).

The Pac-10 experienced continued success in football as the league sent fi ve teams to bowl games -- ARIZONA, CALIFORNIA, OREGON, OREGON STATE and USC.

The Pac-10 was one of the premier basketball conferences, sending six teams to the NCAA Men’s Basketball Championship. UCLA was selected for the fi fth straight year. On the women's side, three teams competed in the NCAA Tournament with STANFORD reaching the Final Four.

On the men's side, Pac-10 members have won 264 NCAA team championships, far ahead of the the 198 claimed by the runner-up Big Ten. Men's NCAA crowns have come at a phenomenal rate for the Pac-10 - 15 basketball titles by fi ve schools (more than any other conference), 50 tennis titles, 45 outdoor track and fi eld crowns and 26 baseball titles. Pac-10 members have won 25 of the 40 NCAA titles in volleyball, 35 of the 40 in water polo, and 21 total swimming and diving national championships.

On the women's side, the story is much the same. Since the NCAA began conducting women's cham-pionships 28 years ago, Pac-10 members have claimed at least four national titles in a single season on 20 occasions. Overall, the Pac-10 has captured 118 NCAA women's crowns, easily outdistancing the SEC, which is second with 75. Pac-10 members have dominated a number of sports, winning 21 softball titles, 18 tennis crowns, 11 of the last 19 volleyball titles and 13 of the last 20 trophies in golf.

ROSE BOWL SELECTION PROCEDURESThe Pacifi c-10 Conference has agreements with six bowls. The Pac-10 champion shall play in the Rose Bowl Game unless it is ranked No. 1 or No. 2 in the Bowl Championship Series (BCS) ranking system. In that case, the Pac-10 champion would participate in the FedEx BCS National Championship Game. This year, that game will be played in the Rose Bowl on January 7.

If that is not the case, the following procedures will determine the Pacifi c-10 representative in the Rose Bowl. The Pac-10’s Rose Bowl representative shall be that member’s team with the best record in Conference games. If, however, the records in Conference games of two or more members are identical, determination of the Rose Bowl representative shall be as follows:

Two-Team Tie: If two teams are tied for the conference championship, the team that won the head-to-head meeting shall be the Pac-10’s representative in the Rose Bowl.

Multiple Ties: (1) When three or more teams are tied in Conference play, if one has defeated all others, it shall be the Rose Bowl representative. If that is not the case, a comparison of the tied teams' records against the other tied teams shall be made and the team having the best record against the other tied teams shall be the Rose Bowl representative. If two or more teams are still tied after this comparison, the appropriate two-team or multiple-team tie-breaking procedures shall be repeated among those teams still under consideration.

(2) If more than two teams are still tied after the process above is completed, each remaining tied team's record against the team occupying the highest position in the fi nal regular season standings shall be compared, with the procedure continuing down through the standings until one team gains an advantage. When arriving at another group of tied teams while comparing records, each team's collective record against the tied teams as a group shall be used.

If at any point in the process the multiple-team tie is reduced to two teams, the two-team tie-breaking procedure shall be applied.

If more than two teams are still tied after comparing their records all the way through the Conference standings, the team among the tied teams with the highest ranking in the fi nal BCS standings shall be the Rose Bowl representative.

If a tie remains, the team most recently earning Rose Bowl or Bowl Championship Series automatic selection shall be eliminated.

Ineligible Team: Teams ineligible to participate in the Rose Bowl shall not be included in the tie-breaking formulae, except their games against other institutions shall count and may be utilized to break ties between other eligible teams.
