SEASON OUTLOOK

At UCLA, only championships matter. Forgotten are last year’s graduation losses and all the negatives that might aff ect this year’s team. Positive thoughts abound, and looking forward

to the spring season, the improvement of each players’ game and journey to the championship summit dominate the thoughts of the 2008-09 Bruins. Five freshmen will provide gleeful optimism and four veterans will provide experienced guidance. Th e group of fi rst-year players was named one of the top recruiting classes in the country last year. It consists of three AJGA All-Americans, one of Mexico’s best young amateurs and a Colorado state high school champion. Th e returnees include a two-time collegiate All-American, a sophomore all-conference selection, a senior with 75 career rounds and one collegiate victory and two sophomore lettermen with plenty of experience. Th e cameraderie is solid, the work ethic is unmatched and the attitude commendable. Th e Bruins are ready to reload and contend for the national championship for 2009 and for many years in the future. Following are capsule summaries of the Bruins’ personnel by class.

SENIORSA senior class of three dwindled to one at the start of the fall season, as James Lee recovered from a wrist injury that left him on the sideline for the summer and Lucas Lee departed for professional golf after the fi rst college event. Th at left three-year letterman Erik Flores in a leadership role as the season began. Over the summer, Flores recorded three Top 5 results, including medalist honors at the Pacifi c Northwest Amateur. Last season he earned third team All-America honors after fi nishing the year ranked 22nd nationally. A First-Team All-Pac-10 selection in 2008, he aver-aged 72.5 with six Top 10 fi nishes and 15 rounds under par. “Erik is our most experienced player,” said Freeman. He is look-ing to have a great spring. Th is is his last opportunity to achieve his individual goals before he plays professional golf.” As a junior, Flores also won his fi rst collegiate event, a victory that was long overdue. Last February, he won the Cal State Bakersfi eld Invitational with scores of 68-69-69—206 (-10). In addition, he leads

the team in career percentage of subpar rounds (37.6%) and sub-70 scores (22.9%). His wrist healed, James Lee’s 75 rounds of collegiate experience will be too substantial to overlook. What’s more, as a freshman in 2006 he logged seven rounds of postseason experience, tying for 21st at the Pac-10 Championship and tying for 32nd at the NCAA Tournament where all four of his scores were counters. “Much of James’ success this season will be determined by the health of his wrist,” said Freeman. “He is one of the hardest workers on the team, and if he stays healthy, he will be a productive contributor to the team. We need him in the lineup. He’s got a lot of experience and he’s a good leader.” Lee won his fi rst event last season, posting scores of 65-72-74—211 (-5) to tie for fi rst place honors at the CordeValle Collegiate. In 20 rounds he averaged 74.4 with four rounds under 70 and fi ve rounds under par. His career percentage of subpar rounds is 19.6.

SOPHOMORES Philip Francis spent his entire freshman season with the traveling team, playing in 34 rounds, including the 11-round championship segment. He averaged 73.6 with seven subpar rounds, a 93% counter ratio and earned All-Pac-10 Honorable Mention honors. “Philip is beginning to achieve what it takes to compete at the highest collegiate level,” said the head coach. “He has worked diligently on his game. He played very well last summer, which led to playing well in the fall. His best golf is ahead of him.” In the summer he received a sponsor’s exemption to play in the John Deere Classic and tied for 34th with scores of 67-71-64-75—277 (-7). After 54 holes, he was tied for 11th at 11-under par. He also recorded two Top 10 results at other amateur events and claimed four rounds under 70 in those tournaments. Connor Driscoll last season averaged 75.6 in 21 rounds. In his best fi nish he tied for ninth at CordeValle in 2007 and recorded a T23 at the Cal Poly Invitational. “Connor can break into the lineup this season if he continues to work hard and improve,” said Freeman. “He needs to consistently battle par to have the opportunity to make the lineup on a regular basis.”

Freshman Gregor Main, Head Coach Derek Freeman and sophomore Philip Francis look forward to another championship season.


SEASON OUTLOOK

FRESHMEN Th rough the fall schedule, the freshmen had logged 24 rounds and accounted for fi ve results in the Top 25. Th e player who emerged as a standout in this group is Gregor Main, who recorded three Top 20 results in three starts, and nearly won his fi rst collegiate event. Main led the team in scoring average at 72.5 with a run-ner-up fi nish at the Cal Poly Invitational and Top 20 results at Isleworth and CordeValle. He also posted one of the team’s three rounds below 70 in the fall. “Gregor has the opportunity to have a tremendous amount of success at the college level,” said Freeman. “He has all the necessary tools that will allow him the opportunity to achieve his goals.” An AJGA All-American, Main came to UCLA as a well-decorated junior player with several victories on the AJGA and FCWT circuits. Before transferring to the IMG Golf Academy in Florida, he lettered two seasons in varsity golf at De La Salle HS in Concord where he led the Spartans to the 2006 state title. Alex Shi Yup Kim also made three starts and logged nine rounds, averaging 75.2 and tying for eighth at the Cal Poly Invitational. “Alex is getting the chance to play very early in his col-legiate career,” Freeman stated. “It is allowing him to expose the weaknesses in his game. At times, it is diffi cult, but in the long run, it will make him a better player.” Also an AJGA All-American, Kim lettered four years in golf at Sunny Hills HS where he was a four-time All-Freeway League selection and two-time All-Orange County choice. In 2007, he set a 54-hole tournament record in winning the L.A. City Championship at Griffi th Park with a score of 199 (-17). Originally slated for a redshirt season, Beau Schoolcraft recorded three starts and played nine rounds in the fall. He posted a pair of Top 25 results and proved to be a reliable scorer. “For the fi rst time in his life, Beau is playing golf all year long,” Freeman said. “Th is is helping him work hard on his game.” An outstanding high school athlete, Schoolcraft earned seven varsity letters in golf and hockey. In golf he was a four-time all-league selection, two-time all-state choice and the Colorado Player of the Year in 2008. He led the Kent-Denver HS Sun Devils to a pair of state championships and won the individual title as a senior. Mauricio Azcue and Taylor Travis complete the freshman class. Azcue represented Mexico in the World Team Champion-ship, fi nishing in a tie for 92nd among the world’s top amateur players. In 2007, he set a Mexican national junior record in winning the Campeon de Campeones with a 54-hole score of 204 (-12). Travis will redshirt the season. Azcue played in the World Team Championship last fall representing Mexico, which tied for 33rd. Travis played at American HS in Fremont, where he led the Eagles to a pair of league titles and won the individual conference championship twice. “Taylor elected to redshirt this year,” said Freeman, “allow-ing him to make some necessary swing changes.”

THE COACHING STAFF

DEREK FREEMANHEAD COACH • 2ND YEAR • (OKLAHOMA ’94)

In one season, Derek Freeman created a list of accomplishments that few other UCLA golf coaches can match. He guided the Bru-

ins to their fi rst NCAA team title in 20 years, mentored the only NCAA individual champion in UCLA history and beamed proudly as that player won a host of postseason awards. Th e Bruins won the 2008 NCAA title by one stroke over defending champion Stanford at Purdue’s Kampen Course on the last day of May. A key par by senior All-American Kevin Chappell on the 72nd hole clinched the vic-tory, but it was Chappell’s bogey save from a disastrous lie at the 71st that enabled the Bruins to maintain a slim lead. Freeman kept his star player level-headed and positive, and coaxed his other senior — Craig Leslie — into playing the fi nal three holes in one-under par to stymie the Cardinal’s rally. In the succeeding days, Chappell collected some awards that had UCLA historians dust-ing up their antique collection and creating new mantle space. He became the fi rst UCLA golfer in the 75-year history of the program to win the NCAA individual championship and the Jack Niclaus Award. He also became just the third player in school history to earn consensus fi rst-team All-America honors, and the fi rst since 1985. A month before the season ended, Chappell became the sixth UCLA player to earn Pac-10 Golfer of the Year honors. Freeman also claimed one other All-American — Erik Flores, who also won his fi rst collegiate individual title. In addition, both Chappell and Flores were selected First-Team All-Pac-10 members. A former all-conference golfer at the University of Oklahoma, Freeman made an immediate impact on the UCLA program soon after his appointment on July 16, 2007. Th rough the 2007 Fall campaign, the Bruins did not lose a tournament, winning

the Big Ten/Pac-10 Challenge, the Collegiate Match Play Championship and the CordeValle Collegiate. Th e Bruins fi nished his fi rst half season ranked No.2 in the nation. In the November signing period, Free-man inked the nation’s No. 2 ranked group of recruits as judged by GolfWeek. Th e list included two AJGA All-Americans and one of Mexico’s top amateurs. Four months later, he added another AJGA All-American to that list. In 2007-08, the Bruins won fi ve tourna-ments, a fi gure that ranks fi fth in school history. UCLA also won its fi rst-ever Collegiate Match Play Championship. In that event, Chappell and freshman Philip Francis posted records of 4-0-0. During the season, four players won fi ve individual tournament titles, including Chappell who won twice and ended the season 20-under par through 34 rounds. Chappell also set a single season school record by averaging 71.0 strokes per round and ended his career ranked fi fth in school history with fi ve career victories. Finally, he was the only player under par at the 2008 NCAA Tournament. In his fi rst year, 2006-07, as the Bruins’ assistant coach, Freeman coached the UCLA Blue Team, which won the Cougar Invitational and and the Cal State Bakersfi eld Spring Invi-tational. Senior Chris Heintz won the Cougar event, and at the Bakersfi eld tournament, the Blue Team scorched the course for a score of 25-under par with sophomore Lucas Lee capturing medalist honors at 14-under par. Th ree years ago, Freeman spent the season as Oklahoma’s men’s assistant coach. In 2005-06, the Sooners fi nished 29th at the NCAA Championship after placing seventh in the NCAA Central Regional. Oklahoma also won its fi rst Big 12 Conference team title since Freeman’s sophomore year as all fi ve players fi nished among the Top 15 individuals. Prior to his appointment at OU, Freeman served the previous three seasons (2002-05) at Oklahoma City University. As an assistant coach for the men’s and women’s programs (2002-03), he helped lead OCU to 14 com-

bined titles, including the men’s 2003 NAIA Championship. Following the 2003 season, Freeman was promoted to head coach of the OCU women’s program and guided the Stars to their second straight runner-up fi nish at the NAIA Championship. In his second season, 2004-05, OCU captured the NAIA women’s national championship and Freeman was named the NAIA National Coach of the Year. Th e team set a championship record with a 49-stroke victory. In two seasons as the OCU women’s coach, Freeman mentored eight All-Americans and seven academic All-Americans. Twice he was voted the NAIA Region VI Women’s Golf Coach of the Year (2004 and 2005). In fi ve of his last six seasons as a head coach or assistant, his teams won either a conference or national championship. As a player at OU, Freeman enjoyed a fi ne career, serving as the Sooners’ captain for three seasons (1992-94). During his collegiate career, he earned All-Big Eight honors in 1994 and All-Big Eight academic honors in 1993. Freeman was a two-time Bruce Drake Award winner for most improved player and won OU’s Jim Begwin Award for leadership and sportsmanship. Overall, Freeman played in four Big Eight Conference Championships, including the 1992 event in which the Sooners won their fi rst-ever league title. He also participated in four NCAA Regional events and four NCAA Championship tournaments. Of his 51 col-legiate appearances, he fi nished in the Top 30 25 times. He received his degree in Economics from OU in 1994 and later played two years on the Canadian, Mexican and Nike Tours. A rib injury forced him to change careers, and he worked in the fi nancial services industry for fi ve years prior to entering the coaching ranks. Freeman, his wife Stephenie and their two sons live in the Santa Clarita Valley.


THE BRUIN 18 SUPPORT GROUP

THE COACHING STAFF

Daniel Hour begins his second season as the Bruins’ director of operations after serving in the same capacity during the Bruins’ national championship campaign last season Hour assumes a variety of duties pertaining to event management, tournament logistics and recruit-ing.

He also helped Coach Freeman land the nation’s second-ranked recruiting class in 2007-08. The group included three AJGA All-Americans and one of Mexico’s top amateur players. In addition, the Blue Team recorded a pair of podium fi nishes and boasted one individual medalist last season. Two years ago Hour served as team manager helping the staff manage the CordeValle Collegiate and assuming other duties as as-signed by the head coach. Hour entered UCLA in the Fall of 2003 after earning four varsity letters in golf at Whitney HS in Cerritos. In 2001 he earned Whitney’s Most Improved Player award, and as a senior in 2003 he served as the team’s captain and won MVP and 2nd team all-league honors. Hour describes his greatest high school thrill as winning a junior match with a birdie on the fi nal hole after being fi ve down. Hour, 23, graduated from UCLA in June of 2007 with a degree in Economics. He is single and lives in West Los Angeles.

Th rough 2008, UCLA has been represented 40 times in the NCAA Championship, 27 by a team. In 1988, the Bruins captured their fi rst NCAA golf title and last year they won their second. Currently, UCLA has qualifi ed six consecutive years for the national champion-ship tournament, a school record, which is tied for fourth nationally. Below is a list of UCLA’s year-by-year fi nishes since 1947.

1988 NCAA CHAMPIONSHIP SUMMARY

In 1988, the Bruins won their fi rst and only NCAA golf team championship at North Ranch Country Club in Th ousand Oaks, CA. On the fi nal day of the tourna-ment, UCLA, 13 shots behind the leader, rallied for one of the great comebacks in NCAA golf history. Th e Bruins shot a one-under par 287 over the fi nal 18 holes to win the national champi-onship by three shots over Texas-El Paso. Th e Bruins’ Brandt Jobe fi red a fi nal round three-under par 69 to record a one-under par 72-hole score of 287 and fi nish in a tie for second place. Jobe’s fi nish was the best individual fi nish ever by a UCLA golfer in the NCAA Championship. Although no other Bruin fi nished among the Top 20, clutch performances, especially on the fi nal day, produced one of the most memorable championship moments in UCLA history. Below are the scores from the 1988 NCAA Championships.1988 Team score: 1,176. Individuals: Brandt Jobe, 2nd tie (72-73-73-69 — 287); Bobby Lasken, 26th tie (74-71-75-75 — 295); Tim Cruikshank, 31st (79-73-73-71 — 296); Kevin Leach, 43rd (76-78-72-72 — 298); Rich Greenwood, 85th (82-79-77-77 — 315).

Senior Kevin Chappell made a par on the 18th hole to give UCLA a one-shot victory on May 31, 2008 at the 111th NCAA Men’s Golf Championship, hosted by Purdue at its Kampen Course

in West Lafayette, Ind.Chappell won the individual title and led the fourth-ranked Bruins to their fi rst men’s golf title since 1988. He fi nished at 2-under 286 and was the only player in the fi eld under par for the event. He became the fi rst UCLA player to win NCAA medalist honors.“Th e feeling I have right now is better than anything,” said Chap-pell. “To win individually is great, but it becomes even more special because the team also won. I can’t say enough about this team. All season long we’ve always been there to pick each other up and that’s what championship teams do.”In the third round, Chappell made a round-saving bogey from knee-high rough at the 18th hole. Th at score helped him post a cool 68 (-4) and assume fi rst place entering the fi nal round. At the time, he called it “the best bogey of my life.” He amended that statement on Saturday with a bogey that preserved the Bruins’ national championship.At the 71st hole, a 230-yard par 3 over water, Chappell dumped his tee shot in the hazard. His third shot from the drop area skirted 22 paces past the hole -- almost a certain double-bogey.“I knew he could get it up and down from there,” said Head Coach Derek Freeman. “I fi gured we’d take [a] fi ve and move on to 18.”Th e two-time All-American chipped it in.“Th at was the best bogey of my entire life,” he said.Chappell had struggled most of the week at the 18th. In the second round, he came to the brutish 484-yard par 4 at one-under par. A double-bogey gave him a 73 (+1). His bogey there in the third prevented him from carding a 67 (-5).And in the fi nal round, he knew a par would preserve the Bruins’ precarious one-shot lead and their championship dreams. His tee shot found the fairway, leaving him 189 yards to the green. His second shot landed 20 feet above the hole. He barely missed making a birdie, but tapped in for par before the entire UCLA entourage charged the green to embrace their senior leader.“Th is is huge for our school which prides itself on national champion-ships,” said Freeman. “Now, I want to fi gure out how to get better because I sure like this feeling.”Senior Craig Leslie’s birdies at the 16th and 18th holes proved crucial to the Bruins’ title hopes, as well as key par saves on the fi nal holes by junior Erik Flores and freshman Philip Francis.Th e championship was the third won by the Bruins in the month of May. On Mother’s Day the women’s water polo team won its fourth consecutive national championship, and on May 20, the women’s tennis team won its fi rst team title. In total, UCLA owns 103 NCAA team championships, a national leader.For complete scores, please see page 30.

FRIENDS OF GOLF

The Friends of Golf (FOG) organization has been a fi xture of fi nancial support for the UCLA golf program and col-

legiate and youth golf nationwide for the last three decades. Th e origins of this group come from former UCLA head golf coach Eddie Merrins, who served as Bel Air’s head professional for nearly 40 years. Under his active leadership, the UCLA golf program has developed into one of the most successful in the country. To implement that program, Merrins pioneered the FOG organization to aid in fundraising activities for college and youth golf programs. FOG was incorporated in 1981 as a non-profi t organization and has drawn enthu-siasm from many prominent professionals in the business and sports communities. Th e annual FOG event is highlighted by an elaborate golf tournament and dinner held at Bel Air Country Club. Luminaries such as Dinah Shore, Digger Phelps, Rick Pitino, David Wolper and Richard Crenna distinguished the tournament in 1991. Highlighting the 10th annual tournament was the legendary Jack Nicklaus. Each year, FOG honors a member of the PGA Tour, which has enabled Friends of Golf to endow the Golf Scholarship Fund at UCLA. Th e late, legendary golfer Byron Nelson called the annual FOG event, “Th e best one-day golf tournament in the country.” At right is a list of the past honorees:

2008 — Greg Penske, Johnny Miller2007 — Steve Pate, Kathy Whitworth, 2006 — Gene Littler, John Wooden, Duff y Waldorf2005 — Al Geiberger, Dave Stockson Scott Simpson2004 — FOG Founders2003 — Tommy Bolt, Bob Rosburg Duff y Waldorf2002 — Gary Player, Amy Alcott2001 — Billy Casper, Tony Jacklin2000 — Payne Stewart1999 — Fred Couples,, Corey Pavin1998 — Mark O’Meara1997 — Tom Lehman1996 — Jim Murray, Peter Jacobsen1995 — Sam Snead, Deane Beman1994 — Byron Nelson1993 — Ken Venturi1992 — Chi Chi Rodriguez1991 — Jack Nicklaus1990 — Hale Irwin1989 — Ben Crenshaw1988 — Greg Norman1987 — Arnold Palmer1986 — Byron Nelson1985 — Lee Trevino1984 — Raymond Floyd1983 — Ben Hogan1982 — Eddie Merrins

Jack and Rhodine Giff ord (above) have been generous supporters of UCLA Athletics, particularly the golf programs. Th eir lead donation made possible UCLA’s on-campus practice facility, nicknamed “Th e Giff .” In addition, they have sponsored the CordeValle Classic for the last four years. Mr. Giff ord was a 1960-61 UCLA baseball letterman as a fi rst baseman. (Clockwise from top right): Th e view to the West shows the team room and tee box as players hit South toward Pauley Pavilion. Th e view looking East reveals the towers of Royce Hall and the Men’s Gym, newly named the Student Activities Center.

THE CORDEVALLE COLLEGIATE

Th e CordeValle Collegiate, founded by the late Jack Giff ord (UCLA ’63) and his wife Rhodine, has come to symbolize outstanding golf and unmatched cameraderie.

In addition to the 54-hole collegiate competition, the event also features the Giff ord Showcase, where tournament supporters are paired with coaches and players of each team in a best-ball format.

THIS IS UCLA

UCLA is one of the world’s premier universi-ties. Thirty-one of its departments are ranked among the top 20 in their fi elds,

and thirteen of those departments are among the Top 10. UCLA is the engine for real-world advances in health care, science, education, commerce, culture, humanistic studies, social exploration, and com-munity service that enrich our neighborhoods, our nation, and our world on a daily basis. 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 24,000 undergraduates and 12,000 graduate students. A recent study noted that UCLA’s presence as a major employer, research institution and economic force generates more than $9 billion for the Southern California region alone.

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 Fel-lowships, Fulbright Awards and other academic distinctions. UCLA educates more students than any other university in California and was the most popular institution in the nation for this fall’s fresh-man class. 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, en-gineers, bankers, and astronauts. Founded in 1934, the UCLA Alumni Association serves 86,400 members 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, the university 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 offer a Web site for every undergraduate student. The university provides an innovative, on-line tool called “My.ucla.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 volunteer for these programs, including tutoring youngsters, 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 com-munity 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 is partnering 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 research projects, fi eld studies or student internships that directly affect people’s lives in Los Angeles, the state and the nation.

HEALTH CARE Each year more than 450,000 patients from Southern California, the U.S. and around the globe come to the world-renowned UCLA Medical Center for treatment, while thousands more area residents receive care through Santa Monica-UCLA Medical Center and Ortho-paedic Hospital, primary care offi ces and community outreach health programs. The four schools in the medical enterprise are medicine, dentistry, nursing and public health. UCLA Medical Center has been ranked as one of the top hospitals in the country by U.S. News & World Report, including “Best in the West” for 18 consecutive years. A new state-of-the-art medical center, which includes the Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center, Stewart and Lynda Resnick Neuropsy-chiatric Hospital and Mattel Children’s Hospital at UCLA, is under construction and is scheduled to open in 2008. Santa Monica-UCLA Medical Center and Orthopaedic Hospital renovations are scheduled for completion in phases in the coming months. Groundbreaking research is constantly taking place in the Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center, the Gonda (Goldschmied) Neuroscience and Genet-ics 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.

LIFELONG LEARNING Another prime example of UCLA’s connection with the commu-nity is through UCLA Extension, one of the nation’s largest divisions of continuing higher education, offering more than 4,500 courses each year In diverse fi elds of study. In addition, the university conducts guided walking tours and distributes self-guided tour maps. For further information, call (310) 825-8764 or check out UCLA on the Web at www.ucla.edu.

Powell Library is one of four original structures on campus dating to the early 1920s.
