History l
T he University of Notre Dame du Lac was founded in 1842 by Father Edward Sorin. Adjacent to South Bend, Ind., and nestled next to St. Mary’s and Saint Joseph’s Lakes, the University was started with $310 in cash and three log buildings in disrepair. l Notre Dame would establish many firsts for Catholic institutions of higher learning, including the first Catholic law school, the first Catholic engineering school and the first student residence with private rooms, Sorin Hall.
Academics l
The University is organized into four colleges – Arts and Letters, Science, Engineering and the Mendoza College of Business – the School of Architecture, the Law School, the Graduate School, six major research institutes, more than 40 centers and special programs and the University library system. l Notre Dame is rated among the nation’s top-25 institutions of higher learning in surveys conducted by U.S. News and World Report, Princeton Review, Time, Kiplinger’s and Kaplan/Newsweek. l The Mendoza College of Business is ranked #1 among the nation’s top undergraduate business schools by Bloomberg BusinessWeek. l Notre Dame is among a select group of schools that ranks in the top 30 on the U.S. News & World Report survey of the nation’s top colleges and in the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics Directors’ Cup for overall success in athletics.
Students l
Graduate and undergraduate students at the University come from all 50 states 100 countries worldwide. l Notre Dame’s graduation rate of 95 percent is exceeded by only Harvard and Princeton. l Notre Dame’s 98 percent retention rate between the freshman and sophomore years is among the highest in the country, thanks in large part to the University’s unique First Year of Studies Program. l Notre Dame has one of the highest undergraduate residential concentrations of any national university, with 80 percent of its students living in 29 residence halls.
l
The medical school acceptance rate of the University’s preprofessional studies graduates is 80 percent, almost twice the national average. l Notre Dame ranks first among Catholic universities in the number of doctorates earned by its undergraduate alumni – a record compiled over some 85 years.
Service l
Community service is a hallmark of Notre Dame. About 80 percent of Notre Dame students engage in some form of voluntary community service during their years at the University, and at least 10 percent devote a year or more after graduation to service in the United States and around the world. l The University’s Alliance for Catholic Education (ACE) annually sends 180 recent graduates to teach in some 100 understaffed Catholic schools in the southern, southeastern and southwestern United States and in South Bend. A national model, ACE has received the Higher Education Award from the Corporation for National Service for leadership in using national service resources through AmeriCorps.
Alumni l l
l
The University’s network of nearly 270 alumni clubs – including 60 international clubs – is the most extensive in higher education. With graduates renowned for their loyalty and generosity, Notre Dame annually ranks among the top-five in percentage of alumni who contribute to the University. In recent years, Notre Dame alumni have won a Nobel Prize in medicine, a Pulitzer Prize in journalism and an Emmy Award for contributions to television technology.

The Notre Dame Sports Information Office welcomes interest in the Notre Dame volleyball program by the media and looks forward to serving members of the media during the 2010 season. We will make every effort to ensure your working experience is enjoyable. The following are some guidelines to help with your coverage of Notre Dame volleyball: [Media Credentials] Credentials are only issued to accredited members of the working media. Admission will be granted to media members holding a Notre Dame volleyball credential only. Spouses, children and guests are not permitted in the press row area. Work space on press row can be limited and passes will be issued on a first-come, first-served basis. Requests for credentials should be directed to Alan George of the Notre Dame Sports Information Office. Media passes will be left at the Joyce Center volleyball ticket center. [Photo Credentials] Photo passes will be issued by Alan George to accredited members of the media and those individuals on special assignment. All requests must be made at least 24 hours prior to each match. During live action photographers are not allowed to shoot while stationed in front of or behind team benches, the scorer’s table or press row. Photographers wishing to use strobes must contact Alan George at least 72 hours prior to each match to obtain approval.

All About the Irish Notre Dame Volleyball Timeline September 19, 1980 Volleyball, in its debut as Notre Dame’s fifth women’s varsity sport, loses match at Tri-State University September 22, 1980 First varsity volleyball win (12-15, 15-12, 15-11) at Purdue-Calumet September 9, 1982 Notre Dame begins Division I competition with a 3-0 win over Indiana University-South Bend October 23, 1982 First 20-win season clinched; team finishes 25-9 September 3, 1984 Art Lambert replaces Sandy Vanslager as Irish head coach September 24, 1986 Notre Dame begins 17-match winning streak at North Carolina State, a stretch that remains the longest in school history November 15, 1986 Irish win North Star Conference tournament title for first time with win over Rhode Island September 19, 1987 Kathy Cunningham sets the school record for kills in a match with 33 against William and Mary November 22, 1987 First 30-win season achieved with victory over Northern Illinois in the final match of the year December 3, 1988 Irish take part in the NCAA Tournament for the first time, upsetting No. 20 Penn State in the Joyce Center August 8, 1990 Notre Dame begins Midwestern Collegiate Conference play against Saint Louis with a 3-2 victory August 31, 1991 Debbie Brown begins her career as head coach of the Fighting Irish November 30, 1991 Notre Dame wins first of four consecutive MCC tournament titles September 25, 1993 Irish earn the biggest upset in the program’s history, knocking off third-ranked Nebraska in the Joyce Center November 9, 1993 Notre Dame advances to the quarterfinals of the NCAA Tournament – the deepest run in school history – by defeating Minnesota on its home court in five sets September 16, 1995 Standing 8-0 with a win against USC and three tournament titles, Notre Dame rises to fifth in the Volleyball Magazine poll and seventh in the AVCA rankings, marking what was then the best-ever listing for the Irish in each of the polls

UNIVERSITY of
ACADEMIC ALL-AMERICANS – The University of Notre Dame ranks second all-time in the number of CoSIDA (College Sports Information Directors of America) Academic All-Americans produced in all sports since the distinction first debuted in 1952. Entering the 2010-11 school year, 216 student-athletes at the University have earned Academic All-America recognition. In 1992, Jessica Fiebelkorn (1989-92) became the first Irish volleyball player to earn Academic All-America honors. Jaimie Lee (1994-97) was the second player tagged with the honor (1997), while Lauren Brewster became the first Irish volleyball player to be both an athletic and academic All-American, gaining both accolades in 2005. ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE – The Irish volleyball team has experienced unprecedented success in the classroom, registered 17 consecutive semesters with a 3.20+ team grade-point average, highlighted by a 3.448 in the 2002 spring semester, which stands as the highest mark on record (since 1992) by the squad. Eight times in the last 10 years (including 2007-08 when the team posted a program-best 3.443 GPA), Notre Dame has been honored with the AVCA Team Academic Award, which honors squads that have displayed excellence in the classroom by maintaining at least a 3.30 gradepoint average during the school year. ACADEMIC HONORS PROGRAM – Notre Dame’s Academic Honors Program, which completed its first decade in 2006-07, pairs top student-athletes at the University who excel at the highest level in athletics and academics with faculty mentors within the studentathletes’ academic areas of interest. Conducted under the auspices of the Notre Dame Student Development program and Academic Services for Student-Athletes, the program identifies high achievers and offers assistance in order that the students can achieve their fullest potential while attending the University. Five Irish volleyball players – Keara Coughlin (’03), Kim Fletcher (’04), Justine Stremick (’09) and Tara Enzweiler (’10) – have taken part in the honors program. ALL-AMERICANS – Notre Dame has been represented more than ever in the annual AllAmerica awards over the past few seasons. Most recently, rightside hitter Serinity Phillips was named a third team All-American by the AVCA. The 2004 campaign saw middle blocker Lauren Brewster tabbed a third-team AllAmerican by the AVCA – marking the first time in program history that an Irish player was listed on one of those teams – and then moved up to the second team in 2005 (when she was a firstteam selection by Collegiate Volleyball Update).
NOTRE DAME®
She also was the first Tennessee native from any four-year school (Divisions I, II, III, NAIA) to be named an AVCA All-American. In 2003, Brewster was joined by three of her teammates - setter Kristen Kinder, outside hitter Emily Loomis and middle blocker Lauren Kelbley - in claiming honorable mention All-America honors. Kelbley, an outside hitter in her final two seasons, earned that honor again in 2004 then was joined on that list by Adrianna Stasiuk in 2005. Prior to Brewster, the only Notre Dame player to be named All-American was outside hitter Christy Peters, who earned third-team accolades from Volleyball Magazine in 1993 and 1994. Three others have been honorable mention All-Americans: middle blocker Jessica Fiebelkorn (1992), outside hitter Jaimie Lee (1997) and setter Denise Boylan (2000). ALL-TIME GREAT – In May of 1995, USA Volleyball named Irish head coach Debbie Brown an “All-Time Great Volleyball Player,” the highest honor given by the organization. Her photo and records were added to the Volleyball Hall of Fame in Holyoke, Mass. Established in 1954, the All-Time Great designation honors players with Olympic or national team experience, All-America honors, U.S. Open Championships, and overall dominance during an era. As an outside hitter at USC, Brown helped the Women of Troy to a 72-1 record and a pair of national championships (1976 and 1977) before leaving to train full-time with the
Current Irish head coach Debbie Brown’s playing career is virtually unmatched among collegiate coaches, as she was twice honored with the Mikasa Award as the nation’s top all-around player en route to leading USC to a 72-1 record and two national championships prior to joining the U.S. National Team as one of its co-captains.
U.S. National Team. As a collegian, Brown was twice named a first-team All-American, while being honored with the Mikasa Award in both 1976 and 1977 as the nation’s best all-around player. Brown then served as captain of the national team in the 1978 World Championships, leading the U.S. to a fifth-place finish, and was tabbed a co-captain of the 1980 Olympic team that did not compete due to the United States boycott. APR – The NCAA introduced the Academic Progress Rate (APR) in 2004 as its latest standard for measuring academic achievement by collegiate athletic programs. In 2010, all 26 athletics programs at Notre Dame exceeded the academic performance standard, with 5 teams checking in with perfect scores of 1,000. Thirteen teams produced near-perfect scores of 990 with volleyball scoring a 994. Notre Dame had 14 of its programs honored for the multiyear achievement -- men’s basketball, men’s cross country, men’s football, men’s golf, men’s ice hockey, men’s lacrosse, men’s soccer, men’s tennis, men’s indoor track and field, men’s outdoor track and field, women’s rowing, women’s soccer, women’s softball and women’s tennis. The APR uses a series of formulas related to student-athlete retention and eligibility to measure the academic performance of all participants who receive grants-in-aid on every team at every NCAA Division I college and university. It replaced the annual graduation rates report that previously was issued by the NCAA. Programs that fail to earn an APR score of 925 or better are barred from replacing a scholarship athlete who leaves the institution while academically ineligible. Programs with chronically poor academic records based upon a rolling four-year rate ultimately will be barred from postseason competition, in addition to losing scholarships. ATTENDANCE – Fan interest in the Irish volleyball program has exploded in the last decade, as crowds of more than 1,000 have taken in Notre Dame matches on 54 occasions since 2000. In 2003, the Notre Dame-Virginia Tech volleyball match, which ended with a thrilling five-game Irish victory, was played before a record crowd of 8,643. That season also featured the largest-ever crowd for a match not played before a football pep rally, as 2,715 witnessed Notre Dame beat Miami in three games in a nationally-televised match. Notre Dame attracted the second-highest total (7,523) in program history during a BIG EAST battle with Cincinnati in 2007. Debbie Brown was honored for her 500th career win in front of 5,743 fans against Marquette in 2006. In 2005, Notre Dame set program records for total season attendance
(24,783) and average attendance (1,549). After never previously doing so, the Irish have been among the top 30 in Division I in attendance in six of the last eight seasons. The best finish was 16th in 2003 with an average of 1,543 per match, while Notre Dame was 25th in 2002 (1,064 average), 17th in 2004 (1,513), 20th in 2005 (1,549), 27th in 2006 (1,348) and 30th in 2007 (1,216). AVCA POLL HISTORY – The 2005 campaign was noteworthy for the Irish as they not only achieved several program bests on the court, but made AVCA poll history as well. Notre Dame reached an all-time high of fifth in the poll on Oct. 31, 2005, becoming the first school ever to crack the AVCA’s top five after being unranked in the preseason. Also that season, Notre Dame tied the AVCA record for largest poll-to-poll jump, moving 11 spots from 19th to eighth on Sept. 12 (BYU also moved up 11 spots in the final poll in 1996) and broke the AVCA record for the largest two-poll jump, rising more than 17 spots from the preseason until Sept. 12 (the previous AVCA record saw Oral Roberts move from unranked to 10th in the final two polls in 1995). The Irish also spent a program-record 11 polls in the top 10 of the AVCA listing in 2005. Since Debbie Brown took over the program in 1991, Notre Dame has frequented the AVCA poll on countless occasions. Notre Dame’s first ranking came in the 1992 preseason poll, and the Irish have been ranked at some point in the AVCA poll in every season but three since then (unranked in 1999 and 2008, received votes in the first four polls of the 2007 season). Most recently the Irish were ranked in the top 25 for three weeks of the 2009 campaign. In all, Notre Dame has been ranked in 137 polls since 1992. Only 19 schools have been ranked on more occasions than the Irish since the AVCA rankings debuted in 1982, and just 16 have been in more polls since the commencement of the 1992 campaign. The Irish have also enjoyed 19 weeks in the poll’s top 10. BENNETT, ZANETTE – One of the first dominant Notre Dame volleyball players, Zanette Bennett came to Notre Dame as a member of the “Fab Four” recruiting class in 1985. Referring to her stellar volleyball play as a “past-time” while studying to be a doctor, Bennett established numerous Irish career records in her time as an outside hitter and middle blocker. The first Irish player to register 1,000 career kills, she still ranks fourth all-time in that category (1,471). Bennett still holds the Irish record for kills in a season with 548 set in 1987. She was a crowd favorite in the Joyce Center, as fans established the “Z Corner” similar

All About the Irish to that of baseball pitcher Dwight Gooden’s “K Corner.” Each time “Z,” as her fans and the public-address announcer called her, recorded a kill, the fans would hang signs emblazoned with the letter “Z” from the bleachers. BEST OF BOTH WORLDS – Notre Dame ranked 20th in the U.S. News & World Report and 26th in the National Association of Collegiate Director of Athletics Directors Cup after the 2009-10 academic year. Notre Dame was one of just three schools, along with Stanford and Duke), to rank among the top 20 in both the 2008 U.S. News & World Report Rankings of National Universities and the 2008-2009 U.S. Sports Academy Directors’ Cup all-sports competition, which measures across-the-board athletic excellence. BIG EAST – Notre Dame took a landmark step in July of 1995 when the Irish officially became a member of the BIG EAST Conference after previously competing in the Midwestern Collegiate Conference. Since becoming a conference member, Notre Dame has won a total of 107 league championships, more than any other school. The Irish volleyball team has been particularly dominant, posting a 162-21 (.885) regular-season mark en route to 11 regular season titles. In BIG EAST Tournament action, Notre Dame has a 28-6 (.823) record, highlighted by 13 trips to the final match and nine championships.
BIG EAST AWARDS – Since joining the BIG EAST Conference in 1995, Notre Dame has regularly earned some of the leagues top honors. Head coach Debbie Brown has been tabbed coach of the year six times, making her the only coach in conference history to claim the honor. Irish student-athletes were named player of the year six times in the first seven years of conference membership. In addition to a pair of setter-of-the-year awards (which was only given out three times by the league) and a rookie of the year award, Notre Dame has had nine players earn tournament MVP accolades (most recently Adrianna Stasiuk in 2005). In the 15-year span of league membership, Irish student-athletes have earned all-conference honors on 54 occasions, including 29 first-team accolades. Through the first 12 seasons with the BIG EAST, Notre Dame players accounted for exactly one-third of the total first-team selections during that span. Additionally, Notre Dame gained seven selections to the all-rookie team before it was dissolved and has had two honorable mention all-conference picks. The Irish have garnered 57 weekly honors, winning player of the week 46 times and rookie of the week on 15 occasions. In 2005, Notre Dame had a conference record of five players earn all-league accolades, with Lauren Kelbley becoming just the third player in conference history to be listed on the all-BIG EAST team on four occasions. BIG EAST CHAMPIONSHIP – All but two of the 15 years of membership in the league have seen Notre Dame advance to the title match of the BIG EAST Championship, with the Irish claiming titles all but five times. The Irish won their first four BIG EAST tournaments (1995-98) and then took three straight from 2000-02 before claiming the 2004 and 2005 crowns. Notre Dame holds a 28-6 (.824) record in the event, sporting a 77-28 (.733) advantage in sets won. The Irish have seen nine different players named the tournament MVP, while the Joyce Center has played host to the BIG EAST Championship three times (1995, 2000 and 2003). BOYLAN, DENISE – Arguably the best setter in Notre Dame history, Boylan ended her career in 2000 sitting in first in career assist average (12.37/set), second in total assists (4,687) and went on to play professionally for the United States Pro Volleyball league’s Minnesota

Lauren Brewster, the 2003 NCAA blocking champion, became the first player in program history to be both an athletic and academic All-American, being named to the second team in both cases in 2005.
Chill in 2002. Boylan became the first player to sweep the BIG EAST’s player-of-the-year, setterof-the-year and championship mostoutstanding-player awards in 2000. BREWSTER, LAUREN – One of the top players in program history, Brewster concluded her career in 2005 as a two-time AVCA AllAmerican (after no previous Irish player ever had earned mention on an AVCA All-America team). She was a CoSIDA Academic AllAmerican in her final season, making her the first student-athlete in program history to be both an athletic and academic All-American. Brewster was three times a first-team all-BIG EAST selection (just the sixth in conference history, and first since 1997) and the MVP of the 2004 league tournament. A co-captain on the record-setting 2005 squad that was 30-4 and peaked at fifth in the AVCA poll, she graduated as the all-time Irish leader in career blocks (734). As a sophomore in 2003, she led NCAA Division I in blocking (1.78/gm) and helped the Irish take first in the team category (3.72/gm), with both of those crowns marking program firsts. Brewster was a member of the Irish coaching staff during the 2007 season.
BROWN, DEBBIE – The current Irish head volleyball coach took over a program in 1991 that had previously managed just five winning seasons in 12 years of varsity volleyball and has led the squad to 19 consecutive winning seasons (15 with 20+ victories) and 15 consecutive NCAA Tournament berths from 1992-2006. During the Brown era, Notre Dame has recorded a 424-163 (.722) record, including 217-43 (.835) in the Purcell Pavilion at the Joyce Center. Under Brown the Irish have won 15 regular-season conference championship as well as 13 tournament titles. Brown’s playing resumé is virtually unparalleled among Division I coaches, as she was a two-time winner of the Mikasa Award as the nation’s top all-around player, as well as a co-captain of the 1980 United States Olympic team. CAPTAINS – In the 30-year history of varsity Irish volleyball, a total of 36 different student-athletes have served as Notre Dame team captains. Among the 11 multiple-year captains were Mary Jo Hensler and Josie Maternowski, who led the Irish for three years from 1982-84. The 11 twotime captains were Kathy Dages (1980-81), Kathleen Morin (1986-87), Alicia Turner (1991-92), Jenny Birkner (1995-96), Denise Boylan (19992000), Keara Coughlin (2001-02), Kristen Kinder (2002-03), Meg Henican (2004-05), Adrianna Stasiuk (2006-07), Mallorie Croal (2007-08) and Jamel Nicholas (2008-09). Notre Dame once had tri-captains when Kinder, Coughlin and Janie Alderete shared the duties in 2002. CHEERLEADERS – The Notre Dame cheerleaders, which consist of students from Notre Dame and neighboring Saint Mary’s College, are a regular part of volleyball matches in the Purcell Pavilion at the Joyce Center along with the famed Leprechaun mascot.
CLUB EXCELLENCE – Notre Dame has a long history of student-athletes who excelled in club volleyball before their time with the Irish. Adrianna Stasiuk (Sports Performance) played on six teams that won national championships, gaining All-America accolades four times including being named AAU MVP in 2002. Ashley Tarutis (Golden West) was a first-team AllAmerican in both of her final two years, helping her team to a bronze medal in 2004. Christina Kaelin and Megan Fesl are also club AllAmericans that have played for Notre Dame. COMMISSIONER’S TROPHY – The BIG EAST Conference Commissioner’s Trophy, which was discontinued after the 2002-03 season, was awarded to the school with the top across-theboard athletic performance in conference sports. Notre Dame won the men’s Commissioner’s Trophy in each of the eight years in which it was eligible, while also capturing the women’s trophy seven straight times after placing second in 1995-96. Both streaks stand as conference records. CONFERENCE DOMINANCE – As a member of the North Star conference beginning in 1983, Notre Dame had unprecedented success a member of a league (NSC: 1983-87, Midwestern Collegiate Conference: 1990-94 and the BIG EAST Conference: 1995-present). In 24 years of conference membership, Notre Dame has compiled a 205-34 (.858) record and won 16 regular-season championships and 15 tournament titles. Further, the Irish went just 4-7 in the North Star Conference in 1983, giving them a 201-27 (.882) mark since 1984, highlighted by a 79-match winning streak in regular-season and tournament play from 1990-98, which is the third-longest in Division I
volleyball history. Upon becoming a BIG EAST member, the Irish won 41-in-a-row before falling for the first time to a conference team. DIRECTORS’ CUP – In 2004 and 2005, outstanding fall campaigns (including points from the volleyball team’s NCAA runs) put Notre Dame atop the standings heading into the winter. Notre Dame has ended up in the top 25 of the standings 11 times in the 15 years since the contest debuted in 1993-94. EARLY BEGINNINGS – The Notre Dame women’s volleyball program originated as a club sport in 1977. It became the University’s fifth women’s varsity sport in 1980 while experiencing a modest beginning at the Division II level. The Irish posted a 3-19 record in 1980 and a 14-22 mark in 1981 before making the jump to the Division I level in 1982.

All About the Irish “FAB FOUR” – Nickname assigned to the recruiting class of 1985: Zanette Bennett, Maureen Shea, Mary Kay Waller and Whitney Shewman. Serving as the nucleus of the emerging Irish volleyball program, these four players led the team to its first NCAA Tournament berth in 1988 and a school-record 17-match winning streak in 1986. FIGHTING IRISH – Exactly where and how Notre Dame’s athletic nickname “Fighting Irish” came to origination never has been perfectly explained. One story suggests the moniker was born in 1899 with Notre Dame leading Northwestern 5-0 at halftime of a football game in Evanston, Ill. The Wildcat fans supposedly began to chant, “Kill the Fighting Irish, kill the Fighting Irish,” as the second half opened. Another tale has the nickname originating at halftime of the Notre DameMichigan football game in 1909. With his team trailing, one Notre Dame player yelled to his teammates – who happened to have names like Dolan, Kelly, Glynn, Duffy and Ryan – “What’s the matter with you guys? You’re all Irish and you’re not fighting worth a lick.” Notre Dame came back to win the game and the press, after overhearing the remark, reported the game as a victory for the “Fighting Irish.” The most generally accepted explanation is that the press coined the nickname as a characterization of all Notre Dame athletic teams, their never-say-die fighting spirit and the Irish qualities of grit, determination and
tenacity. The term likely began as an abusive expression tauntingly directed toward the athletes from the small, private, Catholic institution. Notre Dame alumnus Francis Wallace popularized it in his New York Daily News columns in the 1920s. The Notre Dame Scholastic, in a 1929 edition, printed its own version of the story: “The term ‘Fighting Irish’ has been applied to Notre Dame teams for years. It first attached itself years ago when the school, comparatively unknown, sent its athletic teams away to play in another city ... At that time the title ‘Fighting Irish’ held no glory or prestige … The years passed swiftly and the school began to take a place in the sports world ... ‘Fighting Irish’ took on a new meaning. The unknown of a few years past has boldly taken a place among the leaders. The unkind appellation became symbolic of the struggle for supremacy of the field ... the term, while given in irony, has become our heritage … So truly does it represent us that we are unwilling to part with it.” Notre Dame competed under the nickname “Catholics” during the 1800s and became more widely known as the “Ramblers” during the early 1920s in the days of the Four Horsemen. University president Rev. Matthew Walsh, C.S.C., officially adopted “Fighting Irish” as the Notre Dame nickname in 1927.

final eight. The 17th-ranked Irish upset No. 8 Nebraska in three games in the opening round (after topping then-No. 3 Nebraska, 3-1, during the regular season). Stark, Peters, and Nicole Coates all notched double-digit kill matches, with Coates hitting a blazing .545. Notre Dame then traveled to Minneapolis, Minn., for a round-of-16 matchup against Minnesota. Facing the Golden Gophers in their home arena the Irish were put to the test, finally winning 15-13 in the fifth game of a thrilling match. Peters led Notre Dame with a stellar 26 kills and 21 digs. Coates, Stark, Jenny Birkner and Julie Harris also had double-digit kills in the win. The Irish faced a familiar foe in the regional finals, as Penn State had knocked Notre Dame out of the NCAA Tournament in 1992. The seventh-ranked Nittany Lions duplicated the feat despite a 14-kill and 19-dig performance from Peters. GOLD AND BLUE – The origin of Notre Dame’s school colors can be traced back to the founding of the University in 1842. At that time, Notre Dame’s original school colors were yellow and blue; yellow symbolized the light and blue the truth. However, sometime after the Dome and Statue of Mary atop the Main Building was gilded, gold and blue became the official colors of the University. GOLDEN DOME – The Main Building, surmounted by a statue of Our Lady atop the world-famous Golden Dome, at one time comprised the entire University infrastructure, and in 1879 was rebuilt in five months after a devastating fire. Its gold leaf exterior is periodically replaced, most recently in 2005. The 12 Columbus murals in the main corridor were painted by Luigi Gregori, an Italian artist who spent 17 years at Notre Dame in the latter part of the 1800s. The building contains the primary administrative offices, including that of Rev. John I. Jenkins, C.S.C., who took over in June of 2005 as Notre Dame’s 17th president. The exterior of the building was renovated and cleaned in 1996 and the interior of the building was renovated and reopened in August of 1999, after being closed the previous two academic years. HENICAN, MEG – One of the top defensive players ever to wear a Notre Dame uniform and the first prolific Irish libero, Meg Henican concluded her career in 2005 holding 22 of the 25 Irish dig records, including every major mark: digs in a match (43), season (628) and career (1,783), and dig average in a season (5.06) and career (4.18). After coming to Notre Dame as a “Fab 50” outside hitter, she played primarily at the libero spot throughout her career, leading
record 363 consecutive games, led Notre Dame to an outstanding 2005 season, which featured a 30-4 record (5-1 vs. top-15 teams) and a No. 5 ranking AVCA polls.

the Irish in digs on 69 occasions during her four years and posting double digits in that category a school-record 96 times (she had 20+ digs 29 times). She was an exceptional passer and serve receiver, and was instrumental in Notre Dame posting its three lowest opponent
ace averages in her final three seasons (0.94 per game in 2003; 0.96 in 2004; 0.80 in 2005). As a senior, she took more than half of opposing serves while fielding a 97.4% reception percentage. Henican, a two-time captain who finished her career having played in an Irish-
HOME COURT STREAKS – Coming into the 2010 season, Notre Dame is on a nine-match home winning streak. The Irish won 11 of 12 in the Purcell Pavilion at the Joyce Center last season, falling to LSU (Aug. 29) in the third game of the season. In addition to posting some impressive conference winning streaks, Notre Dame has had a variety of dominating runs in the Purcell Pavilion. The Irish have had five home winning streaks of 14 or more matches, highlighted by a school-record stretch of 36 straight home wins from 2000-02 and a 27-match streak from 1993-95. The Irish have had a winning home record in each of the 19 seasons under head coach Debbie Brown and won 74 in-a-row at home against conference foes during regular-season play from 1991-2004. Notre Dame also won 52 straight against unranked teams in the Purcell Pavilion from 1998-2002.

The locker room also features multiple dry-erase boards for strategy sessions and a team computer with a sound system that pumps music throughout the three areas. The facility is decorated with action photos and graphics on the lockers and walls, including a volleyball version of the famed “Play Like a Champion Today” sign. The locker room was made possible by the generosity of Marge and Joe Henican, whose daughter Meg (2002-05) was a standout libero for the Irish.

Eight Irish volleyball players have earned the award: Terese Henken (1984), Alicia Turner (1993), Julie Harris (1994), Jaimie Lee (1998), Keara Coughlin (2003), Kristen Kinder (2004), Emily Loomis (2005) and Adrianna Stasiuk (2008). LAMBERT, ART – The second of four coaches to lead the Notre Dame volleyball program, Lambert headed the Irish team through its first taste of national prominence (1984-90). Lambert came to Notre Dame from Stanford and had an immediate impact on the Irish program. With a flair for recruiting and an emphasis on developing a national schedule, Lambert guided Notre Dame to its first NCAA Tournament appearance in 1988. MIKASA AWARD – Irish head coach Debbie Brown won the Mikasa Award as a collegian in 1976 and 1977. She earned the honor, which is presented to the nation’s best all-around player, while helping USC to a combined 72-1 record and two national championships. MONOGRAM – While other universities have letterwinners, Notre Dame student-athletes earn monograms and take their place in the Notre Dame Monogram Club.

NCAA BLOCKING CHAMPS – After a series of near misses, Notre Dame claimed its first two NCAA statistical crowns in 2003 by leading all Division I teams in blocking (3.72/set average with second-place Cornell coming in at 3.52), while sophomore Lauren Brewster was tops in individual blocking (1.78/set). The Irish finished fifth in team blocking in 2001 and were second to Nebraska in 2002, while Brewster ended her rookie season fourth in the individual category. Notre Dame broke the single-season blocking average record in 2002 and against in 2003. The previous record stood since 1988. Additionally, no Irish team had ever featured four different players registering 100+ blocks in the same season. Brewster, Katie Neff, Emily Loomis and Lauren Kelbley accomplished the feat in both 2002 and 2003. Each Irish player ranked among the top eight blockers in the BIG EAST Conference in the latter campaign. NCAA TOURNAMENT – The Irish have made 17 trips to the NCAA Division I Volleyball Championship, and are one of just seven schools to gain invitations in 15 consecutive tournaments from 1992-2006. They have advanced to the round of 16 on six occasions (1988, 1993-95, 1997 and 2005) highlighted by a trip to the national quarterfinals in 1993. This season’s NCAA Tournament begins at campus sites Dec. 2-5, continues with regional action from Dec. 10-13 and concludes with the Final Four Dec. 16-18 at the Spring Center in Kansas City, Mo. Purcell Pavilion Joyce Center has played host to NCAA action on seven occasions, including the first two rounds in 2005. NORTHEAST REGION – The American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA) has shifted Notre Dame into four different regions (or districts) over the past 20 years. After starting out in the North Central region, the Irish became a member of the Mideast Region (1992-94), then moved to District I (1995-99) before ending up in the Northeast Region in 2000. In all, Irish personnel have earned 55 all-region/district honors, including five coachof-the-year accolades for Debbie Brown and 43 all-region team selections.

OLYMPIC TORCH RUN – Irish head coach Debbie Brown took part in the Winter Olympic Torch Relay, carrying the flaming torch in South Bend on Jan 4, 2002. A co-captain of the 1980 U.S. Olympic volleyball team that missed out on the Moscow games due to the United States boycott, Brown also served as an assistant coach for the U.S. National Team during its 1988 Olympic effort. Brown was chosen as a torchbearer due to her embodiment of the inspirational spirit of the Olympics, shown by serving and motivating the community. PERFECTION – Even as the Irish volleyball team strives for perfection on the court, a number of Notre Dame players have achieved it in the classroom over the last several years. Three 2004 graduates – Kim Fletcher, Kristen Kinder and Katie Neff – combined for seven 4.00 grade point average semesters during their careers, while 2003 graduate Keara Coughlin posted a 4.000 in the fall of her final year. Fletcher finished her collegiate days with four consecutive 4.00 GPAs, while Kinder notched two perfect semesters during her time at Notre Dame. Leah Nedderman turned in a 4.00 in her final collegiate semester before graduating in 2005, and Justine Stremick accomplished the feat in the spring of 2008. PETERS, CHRISTY – One of the top volleyball players ever to don a Notre Dame uniform, Peters became the first Irish All-American in 1993 then repeated the feat in 1994 with another third-team selection. Peters – the only player in program history to register 1,500 kills and 1,500 digs – still ranks first in the Irish career record books in a number of categories including kills (1,683), matches with team-high
kills (70), 20-plus kill matches (19), doubledoubles (64), digs (1,640) and dig average (3.72) by a non-libero. PRE-PEP RALLY PERFORMANCES – Over the past several seasons, the Notre Dame volleyball program has developed a tradition of playing before the highly-attended football pep rallies held in Purcell Pavilion on Friday evenings before home games. Notre Dame is one of few schools in the country to host football pep rallies for every home game, and the Irish volleyball team has played before various record-setting crowds just hours before the event, giving it virtually unparalleled exposure. Most recently, 7,523 fans witnessed an Irish win over Cincinnati in 2007. During the 2000 season, Notre Dame played host to Nebraska in volleyball prior to the pep rally in anticipation of the meeting between the two schools on the gridiron. More than 3,000 fans jammed the Purcell Pavilion for the volleyball match and then remained in their seats for the football pep rally. In 2002, Notre Dame entertained Providence before the football pep rally for Notre Dame’s game with Boston College and drew 3,351 fans. A 2003 match that pitted (then) conference foes Notre Dame and Virginia Tech prior to the Navy pep rally ended in a five-game decision that favored the Irish. In fact, former Notre Dame assistant coach Greg Smith was the Hokies’ head coach at the time while shouldering the defeat in front of a school-record crowd of 8,643. In 2004, a showdown between the two defending BIG EAST co-champions Notre Dame and Pittsburgh ended in a three-set sweep in favor of the Irish before a crowd of 4,773. Notre Dame and Pittsburgh battled each other in football on the following day. The Irish dominated USF in the first-ever meeting between the two schools in front of a crowd of 5,541 in 2005. PURCELL PAVILION AT THE JOYCE CENTER – Notre Dame’s double-domed home for volleyball, basketball, hockey and other sports was named the Edmund P. Joyce Athletic and Convocation Center (now the Joyce Center) by vote of the Board of Trustees in May of 1987. Father Joyce, former executive vice president and chairman of the Faculty Board on Athletics, retired in 1987 following 35 years in that position. He passed away on May 2, 2004. Father Joyce was an active voice in the NCAA while pushing for higher standards and greater integrity in the intercollegiate arena. The Joyce Center, which houses Notre Dame’s athletics offices, opened in the fall of 1968. The south dome was renovated prior to the 2009 season and is now tabbed the Purcell Pavilion at the Joyce Center.

SISTERS – Notre Dame has had two sets of sisters play on its volleyball team. Maureen (1980-82) and Kathleen (1984-86) Morin were the first, helping to shape the program in its infancy. More recently, twins Jessica and Kristen Kinder played for the Irish from 2000-03, serving as co-captains in 2003. They became just the third set of twin sisters to earn monograms in the same sport at Notre Dame. Megan Fesl battled her sister, Annie (a setter at Cincinnati), twice during the 2007 season with the Irish coming out on top of each contest. Rich Fesl, Megan and Annie’s father, sang the national anthem before the home contest between the Irish and Bearcats that season. STASIUK, ADRIANNA – One of the best allaround and versatile players in Irish history, Adrianna Stasiuk was named an honorable mention All-American in 2005, the same season in which she won the BIG EAST Conference Tournament Most Oustanding Player.

With a powerful jump serve and explosive power around the net, Stasiuk was a three-time all-league choice and was twice named to the all-district academic team. She became only the seventh Notre Dame player ever to register 1,000 kills and 1,000 digs in a career and was the first to ever pace the team in 10 major statistical categories when she did so in 2007: attacks (1,012), kills (361), kills/set (3.28), aces (33), aces/set (.300), digs (3.77), digs/set (3.43), points (425.5), receptions (1,146) and receiving percentage (.976). Her 62 career double-doubles ranks second all-time and she is third all-time in digs (with the second-highest total of any non-libero). T.V.

Notre Dame beat then league-rival Miami in three games in front of a crowd of 2,715 in the Joyce Center late in 2003 CSTV’s initial year of broadcasting college volleyball. The Irish were then televised three times in just over a month in 2004, dropping road matches against South Carolina (CSTV), Michigan (Comcast) and Brigham Young (BYU Television). The 2005 campaign continued this trend, as the Irish were televised a record four times, beating No. 11 Texas (CSTV) and Cincinnati (ESPNU) in the regular season, then prevailing at No. 7 Louisville in the final of the BIG EAST tournament (CSTV) and falling in five games to eventual NCAA semifinalist Tennessee (Comcast) to end the regular season. On Senior Day in 2007, the final home contest for Adrianna Stasiuk and Ashley Tarutis, Notre Dame downed No. 17 Louisville on ESPNU to spoil the Cardinals’ perfect regularseason record. The 2009 season saw Notre Dame play two televised games: Louisville (Oct.11) on ESPNU and Marquette (Nov. 6) on a local Milwaukee station. TWO-SPORT STANDOUT – Emily Loomis (2001-04) holds the distinction of being the only Notre Dame student-athlete to earn allBIG EAST or All-America honors in two distinctly different sports. As a volleyball player, she was a four-year starter and three-time allleague honoree (first team in 2002, second team in 2003, honorable mention in 2004), while being honorable mention All-America in 2003. As a high jumper for the Irish track and field team, she was an All-American in 2006 after tying for eighth in the NCAA meet, as well as a four-time all-BIG EAST selection and the 2003 outdoor high jump champion. VANSLAGER, SANDY – The first of four coaches to lead the Notre Dame volleyball program, Vanslager administered the transition from club to varsity status and the jump from Division II to Division I during her tenure (198083). Vanslager’s best season came in the Notre Dame’s first year as a Division I affiliate, when the Irish won 15 of their final 17 matches to finish 25-9 in 1982. VICTORY MARCH – The most recognizable collegiate fight song in the nation, the “Notre Dame Victory March” was written in the early 1900s by two brothers who were University of Notre Dame graduates. Michael Shea, a 1905 graduate, composed the music while his
brother, John Shea, who earned degrees in 1906 and 1908, provided the corresponding lyrics. The song was copyrighted in 1908 and a piano version, complete with lyrics, was published that year. Michael, who became a priest in Ossining, N.Y., collaborated on the project with John, who lived in Holyoke, Mass.. The song’s public debut came in the winter of 1908 when Michael played it on the organ of the Second Congregational Church in Holyoke. The “Notre Dame Victory March” was later presented by the Shea brothers to the University, and it first appeared under the copyright of the University of Notre Dame in 1928. The copyright for the beginning of the song is still in effect. The more well-known second verse, which begins with the words “Cheer, cheer for Old Notre Dame,” is now in the public domain in the United States (for both the music and lyrics) – but the second verse remains protected in all territories outside of the country. Notre Dame’s fight
song first was performed at Notre Dame on Easter Sunday in 1909 in the rotunda of the Main Building. The Notre Dame band performed the Victory March as part of its traditional Easter morning concert. It was first heard at a Notre Dame athletic event 10 years later. In 1969, as college football celebrated its centennial anniversary, the “Notre Dame Victory March” was honored as the “greatest of all fight songs.” Michael Shea was pastor of St. Augustine’s Church in Ossining until his death in 1938. John Shea, a baseball monogram winner at Notre Dame, became a Massachusetts state senator and lived in Holyoke until his death in 1965. The original lyrics (below), written when all athletes at Notre Dame were male, refer to “sons,” but in recognition of the fact that the Victory March is now played for athletic teams composed of men and women, many modify the words accordingly. The “Victory March” earned a number-one ranking in ratings
compiled a 1998 book titled, “College Fight Songs: An Annotated Anthology.” The “Victory March” was also the No. 1-ranked fight song in a survey in 1990 by Bill Studwell, a librarian at Northern Illinois University. Rally sons of Notre Dame: Sing her glory and sound her fame, Raise her Gold and Blue And cheer with voices true: Rah, rah, for Notre Dame We will fight in ev-ry game, Strong of heart and true to her name We will ne’er forget her And will cheer her ever Loyal to Notre Dame Cheer, cheer for old Notre Dame, Wake up the echoes cheering her name, Send a volley cheer on high, Shake down the thunder from the sky. What though the odds be great or small Old Notre Dame will win over all, While her loyal sons are marching Onward to victory. WEB SITE – Notre Dame athletics maintains its presence in cyberspace with its own internet site, UND.com, operated in conjunction with CBS College Sports based in Carlsbad, Calif. The site features media guide material, frequent press releases, match and statistical information, links to live broadcasts and live “in-match” statistics and pictures of all 26 of Notre Dame’s varsity teams. In September of 2002, the site became the first in CBS College Sports history to attract more than five million page views in a month. It then plowed over six million hits in November 2003 and hit the seven million mark in a month for the first time in September 2004. From July 2006-June 2007, over 48.6 million visitors browsed UND.com, an average of over four million per month. A record 7.9 million visitors hit UND.com in September of 2006, the highest mark in the site’s history.
Emily Loomis (2001-04) is the only Notre Dame student-athlete ever to earn all-America honors in two distinctly different sports. She was a track and field All-American in 2006, finishing eighth in the NCAA meet, after being honorable mention AVCA All-America in volleyball in 2003.

2010 Preview
Picked to finish third according to the 2010 BIG EAST Conference Preseason Coaches poll, Notre Dame looks to defend its regular season title after going 14-0 in league play last year.
Season Outlook Notre Dame Reloads In Effort To Capture Second Straight BIG EAST Regular-Season Title Six newcomers join roster as Irish look to defend league crown.
O
n the heels of winning the 2005 BIG EAST Conference regular season and tournament titles, Notre Dame entered the offseason with several unanswered questions and a few gaps in the roster. The departure of five seniors – including a pair of All-Americans in Lauren Brewster and Lauren Kelbley – who steered the Irish that season to the round of 16 in the NCAA Tournament was offset by a sixperson freshman class touted by Volleyball Magazine as the third-best in the nation.
shots on the defensive end of the net. Dunne’s consistent passing kept the offense in tact throughout 2009 and Silva led the Irish with 3.40 digs/set while ranking ninth among BIG EAST players with 3.93 digs/set in league play. She was also an alternate for the 2010 United States Women’s National A2 Volleyball team.
Fast forward four years. The Irish find themselves in a similar spot entering the 2010 campaign. After capturing the 2009 BIG EAST regular-season crown adding another NCAA Tournament trip to the program’s resume, Notre Dame once will once again lose a bundle of experience in six seniors – which also includes a pair of All-American in Christina Kaelin and Serinity Phillips – but welcomes six freshmen to the program. “People look at what we lost, and losing six seniors is huge, but we have a really strong core of players returning,” Irish head coach Debbie Brown says. “Each of our upperclassmen have had different roles on the team and bring tremendous leadership to the court. They all have experience and have

“These returning players have worked really hard during the offseason and have embraced the idea of making this a great year,” Brown says. “Our liberos and defensive specialists are some of the most experienced players on the team and in the league.” The pipes will be patrolled by five outside hitters who have a combined 644 career kills, as the team lost starters Kaelin, Phillips and Megan Fesl to graduation. Junior Kristen Dealy has accounted for 641 of those converted attacks, and the third-year starter will be once again be relied upon to be a six-rotation player.

“We’re counting on the upperclassmen to bring the freshmen along and teach them the ropes of the program. With the renewed energy the underclassmen bring, nothing is stale or boring to them. So from that angle, it will be a very positive experience. The practice gym will be very competitive because we will be so deep in every position. That provides a better atmosphere because the players know they have to be on top of their game in every practice and every match."

Notre Dame was picked to finish third in 2010 BIG EAST Conference regular season play, according to a vote of the league’s 15 head coaches. For the first time since joining the BIG EAST in 2005, Cincinnati emerged as the favorite in the BIG EAST Volleyball Preseason Coaches Poll. The Bearcats were unanimously selected, receiving 196 points and all 14 first-place votes. Louisville, the defending tournament champion, was picked second. “I’m not too surprised by the poll and feel like we’re in a good spot by being picked third,” Brown says. “Losing six seniors from last season will leave a few questions unanswered. We’re excited about competing this season and we’re going to do all we can do to defend our regular-season title while capturing the tournament crown as well.” Since the inception of round-robin play in 1990, 19 of the last 20 preseason favorites have advanced to the finals of the BIG EAST Championship. Of those favorites, 15 have captured the tournament championship and advanced to the NCAA Championship, while 13 have taken the regularseason title. However, the last team to be selected first in the preseason poll and win the regularseason crown was Notre Dame in 2004. After registering a perfect 14-0 mark in the regular season in 2009, Notre Dame and Brown, the reigning BIG EAST Coach of the Year, placed Dealy and Sciacca on the all-BIG EAST preseason team and will be counted on to shoulder the Irish into the postseason. Sciacca led the conference in league play with a .429 hitting percentage in 2009. Notre Dame starts the 2010 campaign by hosting the Shamrock Invitational at the Purcell Pavilion at the Joyce Center. Marshall (Aug. 27), Cal Poly (Aug. 28) and Arizona (Aug. 29) will join the Irish to open the season.
“We’re excited to have the schedule completed, and we think it will be a very manageable yet competitive schedule for our program this season,” Brown says. “We like what we’ve done outside of conference play to help prepare us for what has been a BIG EAST slate that improves each season.” The Irish will be on the road for the next two weeks with four-team invitationals at Nevada (Sept. 3-4) and Denver (Sept. 10-12). The Wolfpack also welcomes Belmont and Weber State while Notre Dame join Gonzaga and Jacksonville State in Colorado’s Mile High City. The Notre Dame/adidas Invitational marks the home return and final tune-up for BIG EAST play with matches versus Delaware (Sept. 17), Santa Clara (Sept. 18) and Dayton (Sept. 19). “With a young squad going into the season, we’ll be tested early, and that will be a good indication as to where we stand and where we need to improve,” Brown says. West Virginia (Sept. 24) and Pittsburgh (Sept. 26) will visit Notre Dame to conclude a five-match homestand and kickoff the BIG EAST portion of the schedule before a four-contest roadswing to USF (Oct. 1), Junior outside hitter Kristen Dealy is one of the team's top returning Georgetown (Oct. 3), Louisville (Oct. 9) and offensive threats. Cincinnati (Oct. 10). DePaul (Oct. 15) will be the second of three home matches that coincide with home football games, follow by a midweek tilt with Western Michigan (Oct. 19). Five of the next six matches will be played at home with a single road trip to Villanova (Nov. 5) in store to begin the final month of the regular season. A break in the conference schedule will come in the form of a Nov. 7 match with Northern Iowa, as a twinbill at Rutgers (Nov. 13) and Seton Hall (Nov. 14) wraps up action before the BIG EAST Tournament (Nov. 19-21), which will be hosted by Pittsburgh. The top eight finishers in the BIG EAST regular season standings based on winning percentage will advance to the tournament. The event spans three days and is single elimination. ESPNU will televise the championship game on Nov. 21. The tournament champion will receive the league’s automatic bid to the NCAA’s 30th Annual Division I Women’s Volleyball Championship. The Irish will travel to Long Beach State (Nov. 26) for the second time in three seasons to prep for the NCAA Championship (Dec. 3-18). Six teams (Arizona, Cincinnati, Dayton, Jacksonville State, Long Beach State and Louisville) on the 2010 slate participated in last year’s postseason showdown.
Head coach Debbie Brown and her staff hope to harness the energy and athleticsm of this year's freshmen class to help steer the Irish into the NCAA Tournament for the 18th time in program history.

Coaching Staff
Irish head coach Debbie Brown has shelved over 400 wins with Notre Dame and won six BIG EAST Conference Coach of the Year awards since joining the league in 1995. The 2010 season is her 20th at the helm of the Fighting Irish program.
Head Coach
Debbie Brown Head Coach 20th Season Arizona State '82
Debbie Brown is one of only a handful of coaches in the volleyball ranks that has been able to parlay a dominating playing career with an equally impressive coaching resume. A two-time winner of the Mikasa Award as college volleyball's best all-around player, Brown notched her 500th career win as a head coach during the 2006 campaign, and her 562 win total ranks her 20th in that category among active coaches. In fact, only three active coaches have more wins in as many seasons than the co-captain of the 1980 United States Olympic team. While her credentials are virtually unmatched among collegiate coaches and players across the country, Brown - who signed a multi-year contract extension in the summer of 2006 - has turned into one of the nation's elite mentors, leading her teams to 23 consecutive winning seasons, 13 finishes in the top 25 of the AVCA national rankings and 21 invitations to the NCAA Championship (including a streak of 15 consecutive bids from 1992-2006). Now in her 20th season at Notre Dame and 26th overall as a collegiate head coach, Brown has compiled a 562-253 (.690) career record including a

445-170 (.724) mark with the Irish. Her squads have made the round of 16 in the NCAA Championship six times, highlighted by a trip to the 1993 quarterfinals. Fifteen regular-season conference championships and 13 league tournament titles are among the accomplishments of Brown-led teams, which have won 20 or more matches 17 times in the last 23 seasons. When taking over the reigns at Notre Dame, Brown inherited a program that had just five winning seasons in its first 11 years of varsity volleyball action but has since turned it into a perennial BIG EAST Conference powerhouse. Nine of her teams have been ranked in the AVCA's final poll. During regular season play, the Irish have cracked the top 10 in consecutive campaigns under Brown, while peaking at an all-time best fifth in 1995 and sixth in 1996 in the Volleyball Magazine rankings. In 2005, her squad achieved its highest ever listing in the AVCA poll, moving up to fifth after entering the season unranked (it was the first time any school had ever cracked the AVCA top five after being unranked in the preseason). That same 2005 version of the Irish put together one of the best campaigns in program history by posting the school's first 30-win season since 1994. All four of the team's defeats came in five-set matches. Notre Dame went 5-1 against top-15 teams and earned an all-time Irish high No. 6 seed in the NCAA Championship. Notre Dame played host to the first two rounds and advanced to the round of 16 for the first time since 1997 before falling in five sets to Wisconsin. The Irish - which rattled off a 15-match winning streak and spent a program-record 11 weeks in the AVCA's top 10 went 13-1 while winning their 10th regular season BIG EAST Championship in 11 years of league membership. In a clash between two top-10 teams, Notre Dame handed Louisville a five-set defeat in the conference tournament finale to give Brown her ninth BIG EAST Tournament title. The 2005 squad also featured the first player in program history - 2006 graduate Lauren Brewster - to earn both athletic and academic All-American accolades. Brown was recognized as the 2005 BIG EAST Volleyball Coach of the Year - the league's first fivetime winner of the award - and named the top coach in the AVCA's Northeast Region while becoming a finalist for the AVCA's national award. She has helped Notre Dame to a variety of dominating performances, including a 189-21 (.900) record in regular season action against conference teams (27-0 vs. Midwestern Collegiate Conference, 162-21 vs. BIG EAST Conference). That includes a 101-7 (.935) record at home and, at one
NOTRE DAME®
point, a 79-match winning streak against conference foes (regular season and postseason) which ranks as the third-longest conference winning streak in Division I volleyball history (AIAW or NCAA). The longest losing streak suffered by any Irish squad under Brown stands at four matches, which happened only twice over the past 18 seasons. Overall, the Irish are 217-43 (.835) in the Purcell Pavilion at the Joyce Center under Brown, including winning streaks of 36 and 27 matches. Against unranked teams at home, Notre Dame holds a 205-19 (.915) record in the Brown era. Since becoming a member of the BIG EAST Conference in 1995, Notre Dame has opened league play with an 11-0 run in all but four seasons (with 11+ matches on the league schedule), going on to win 11 regular-season titles and nine tournament championships. The Irish have won 45 team BIG EAST statistical crowns, as well as 27 individual statistical championships. The league's player of the year has been from Notre Dame six times, while Irish student-athletes have garnered 54 allconference accolades, including 29 first-team honors. Brown has seen her Irish players gain AllAmerica accolades on 15 occasions, with Brewster becoming the first Notre Dame player to be selected as an AVCA All-American (third team in 2004 and second team in 2005). In 2009, two of Brown's players were named All-Americans. Serinity Phillips was named a third team AllAmerican while Christina Kaelin earned honorable mention accolades. Additionally, Brown's players have earned ESPN The Magazine Academic All-America honors three times, while they have won the conference playerof-the-year award nine times and been named the top player in the league tournament on 12 occasions. In all, Brown-era Irish players have combined for 68 all-conference honors, including 38 firstteam selections. Also, Notre Dame student-athletes have garnered all-region or all-district recognition from the AVCA 47 times since Brown's arrival. Under her tutelage, Irish student-athletes have
earned three invitations to join the U.S. National Team program and have made four trips to the U.S. Olympic Festival. Brown has turned Notre Dame into one of the popular choices for top recruits in the country. Since Volleyball Magazine began compiling its "Fab 50" list in 1990, 27 honorees have joined the Irish program, which ranks tied for 14th among national programs. In the seven years that Volleyball Magazine has ranked incoming recruiting classes, the Irish have been mentioned seven times, including the third-best squad in 2006, fifth in 2002 and ninth in 2000. PrepVolleyball.com recognized the 2006 incoming class fifth in the nation while both the 2008 and 2010 classes copped top20 honors. Since the NCAA began keeping official national statistics in 1994, Brown's Irish teams have been mentioned in the final listings 20 times and individuals have made 17 cameos. Among the 22 combined top-15 finishes were Notre Dame's first two national statistical crowns which both came in 2003. The Irish led Division I with a team blocking average of 3.72/set (Cornell was second with 3.52), while Brewster was tops in individual blocking
with a 1.78/set mark. The Irish record books have steadily been under construction since Brown stepped on campus, as all-time best marks in over 120 team and individual categories have been eclipsed. A testament to her recruiting and coaching prowess is the fact that nearly all of the top players in the Notre Dame career record book have played for Brown. That group includes 13 of the 16 players to have registered 1,000 career kills, all six who notched both 1,000 kills and 1,000 digs, the top eight competitors on the career hitting percentage list, six of the top seven on both the assists and service aces lists, and each of the top 10 studentathletes in career digs. Christy Peters, one of the top players in Irish volleyball history, played at Notre Dame during Brown's first four seasons and was tabbed a third team AllAmerican in both 1993 and 1994. She still stands as the program's career leader in kills (1,683) and her digs mark stood 11

Among the other standouts coached by Brown have been Jessica Fiebelkorn (1992), two-time BIG EAST Player-of-the-Year Jaimie Lee (1997), Denise Boylan (2000), Kristen Kinder (2003), Emily Loomis (2003), Lauren Kelbley (2003-05), and Adrianna Stasiuk (2005) - all of whom have earned honorable mention All-America status. Lee and Boylan were invited to train with the United States National Team program during the summer of 1998, while the former earned a spot on the 1997 World University Games team. Kristy Kreher (19982001) also was one of just 20 players named to the USA Junior National Team in 2000. Seven of Brown's former Irish players have gone on to play professionally. Angie (Harris) Akers is currently active in the Association of Volleyball Professionals (AVP), while Lee competed in the league until 2005. Jessica and Kristen Kinder (2004) also played briefly on the beach. Akers who finished in the top 20 of the AVP standings in her first four seasons on tour - was the 2002 AVP Rookie of the Year, an honor Lee earned one year later. Three former Notre Dame competitors were active in the United States Professional Volleyball league in 2002 - Boylan and Kreher were members of the Minnesota Chill and Molly Stark played for the St. Louis Quest. Six of Brown's former Irish assistants have gone on to become head coaches: Robin Davis (Boise State), Andria Harshmann (Grace College) Devin Scruggs (Nevada), Steve Schlick (Cal Poly), Sue Woodstra (Pittsburgh, California, Humboldt State), and 2004 AVCA National Coach of the Year Jim McLaughlin (Washington) who led the Huskies to the 2005 NCAA title. Brown also coached several premier players at Arizona State, including three-time Olympian Tammy (Webb) Liebl (1988-96) and All-Americans Christy Nore and Regina Stahl. The Sun Devils were ranked among the top programs in the nation for six seasons, and in 1986 Brown led the Sun Devils to a 27-7 record and was named Pacific10 Conference Coach of the Year. She compiled a

117-83 record en route to five NCAA Tournament berths while at Arizona State. After serving as a program consultant since 1986, Brown took a leave of absence in 1988 to serve as an assistant coach for the United States National Team before accepting a fulltime national team position in 1989. Brown's duties centered on helping improve the national team's defense and her efforts played a role in a United States bronze medal finish at the 1990 World Championship in China. She also coached national teams in the 1985 and 1991 Olympic Festivals. Since picking up the sport late in her high school days, Brown has become one of the most respected and accomplished individuals in all of volleyball. She grew up in the Los Angeles suburb of El Segundo and became one of the nation's top prep players. She competed as a 17-year old for the United States at the 1974 World Championship in Mexico City and a year later played on the adidas team that won the USVBA title. After graduating from El Segundo High School, she captained the University of Southern California to a 72-1 two-year record and national titles in both 1976 and 1977, including a 38-0 run in 1977 that, until 1998, was the only unbeaten season in Division I women's volleyball history. Her 1977 squad is still considered one of the all-time greatest at any level of volleyball. Brown (then Debbie Landreth) twice was named a collegiate AllAmerican and received the Mikasa Award as the "nation's best all-around player" in 1976 and 1977. USC paid tribute to Brown during the 2008 season by naming her a program “All-Time Great”, an honor shared with Trojan teammate Sue Woodstra. A permanent banner with Brown’s name and jersey number now hangs from the rafters of USC’s Galen Center. The 5-foot-8 outside hitter left USC prior to her junior year, accepting an invitation to train fulltime with the U.S. National Team. She co-captained the team to a fifth-place finish at the 1978 World Championships. A year later, she and her teammates - including all-time greats Debbie Green, Flo Hyman, Rita Crockett and Woodstra qualified for the Olympics in Moscow and were considered serious medal contenders before the United States elected to boycott the games. Four of Brown's former United States teammates went on to become college head coaches, while Debbie Green is in her 23rd season as an assistant at Long Beach State, and Diane (McCormick) French is the technical director for the U.S. National Team. After serving as co-captain of the 1980 Olympic team, Brown completed her degree in physical education at Arizona State in 1982. As an undergraduate she began her coaching career as an

assistant under Dale Flickinger at Arizona State, filling that role from 1980-82 before serving in the same capacity at Central Arizona College during the 1982 season. She returned to Arizona State as head coach in 1983. Her international experience and travels has afforded her the opportunity to coach and play in 22 countries across the world. In honor of her work, Brown was selected as an Olympic Torchbearer for the 2002 Winter Olympic Torch Relay when it traveled through the Northern Indiana area. In May of 1995, USA Volleyball named Brown an "All-Time Great Volleyball Player," the highest honor given by the organization. Brown and fellow honoree Karch Kiraly, a three-time Olympic gold medalist and beach volleyball legend, were recognized at the U.S. Open Championships in Springfield, Mass., and had their photos and records added to the Volleyball Hall of Fame in Holyoke, Mass. Established in 1954, the "All-Time Great" designation honors players with Olympic, national team or All-America honors, U.S. Open Championships, and overall dominance during a particular era. Among the 51 previous winners before Brown were Hyman, Woodstra, Green, Crockett, and Laurel Brassey - all former teammates. Brown earned USVBA All-America honors eight times and won the USVBA's Kilgore Sportsmanship Award in 1983. A six-time USVBA first team AllAmerican, Brown was a member of the USVBA Board of Directors and the U.S. Olympic Committee's Athlete Advisory Council. She served a two-year term (1995-96) as president of the American Volleyball Coaches Association and was a member of its All-America selection committee. In 2003, Brown was recognized for her outstanding career by the NCAA with the Silver Anniversary Award, which annually recognizes six distinguished student-athletes for accomplishments since concluding their collegiate playing days 25 years earlier. Brown played for the 1975, 1985 and 1986
USVBA national championship teams. In 1992, she joined several of her former Olympic squad teammates to capture the USVBA senior division national title in Reno, Nev. Recognizing Brown's effort and success, the Notre Dame Monogram Club bestowed upon her an honorary monogram at the annual club banquet in 1999. Brown has been actively involved in the Fellowship of Christian Athletes and Young Life, serving as a motivational speaker and coach at national banquets and camps. She also volunteers for Rebuilding Together, a home-rehabilitation program in South Bend. Brown and her husband of 29 years, Dennis, have two sons, Connor and Ryan.

Debbie Brown’s Olympic career reached another milestone on Jan. 4, 2002, when she participated in the Winter Olympic Torch Relay, carrying the famous torch in South Bend. A co-captain of the 1980 U.S. Olympic team that missed out on the Moscow games due to the United States boycott, Brown also served as an assistant coach for the U.S. national team during its 1988 Olympic effort. In frigid temperatures, she stepped off the torch runners’ bus just a few steps from the Joyce Center, where she has coached the Fighting Irish volleyball team for 16 seasons. She was handed the torch by local news personality Maureen McFadden and took off down Eddy Street toward downtown South Bend (where the torch was housed for 30 minutes at the Century Center before continuing on its path to Salt Lake City for the opening ceremony). Even though she missed out on Olympic competition during the 1980 boycott, Brown still remembers her national-team experience fondly: “Nothing is going to make up for the disappointment of 1980. I am happy, though, that I can still be connected to the Games. I never ever felt like I wasted four years of my life. That was a special time.” Brown was chosen as a torchbearer due to her embodiment of the inspirational spirit of the Olympics, shown by serving and motivating the community.

Assistant Coach
Robin Davis Assistant Coach 7th Season Northern Arizona '79
Robin Davis was named assistant volleyball coach at the Notre Dame in June 2009. Davis, who spent the three seasons as the head coach at Boise State, rejoined the Irish after spending five seasons with the Notre Dame program from 2001-2005. Since returning to the Irish, Davis has had an integral part in developing some of Notre Dame's finishest players, includings 2010 All-Americans Serinity Phillips and Christina Kaelin. With the arrival of Davis in 2006 Boise State got an immediate boost to its program. In his first season with the program, Davis posted the largest win increase for a first-year coach in Bronco history in leading the squad to 13 wins, five more than the 2005 edition of the Broncos. Davis' 2006 total eclipsed that of Darlene Bailey, the winningest head coach in Boise State history (342 victories), who led the Broncos to a four-match turnaround in 1979. For the first time since joining the Western Athletic Conference in 2001, Boise State swept two of its conference opponents (Louisiana Tech and Fresno State) during the '06 campaign. The Broncos also defeated Nevada for the first time since 1997, ending the longest losing streak against a single team in school history. As an assistant coach with Notre Dame for four seasons, and as an associate head coach for one season, Davis helped lead the Fighting Irish to five consecutive BIG EAST Conference regular-season championships and appearances at the NCAA Tournament, reaching the round of 16 in 2005. Notre Dame also finished that year with its highest-ever final national ranking - No. 12 in the AVCA poll and No. 11 in the Volleyball Magazine poll. Notre Dame led the BIG EAST and ranked among the top five nationally in NCAA Division I in blocking in each of the five seasons following Davis' arrival after the program had never previously cracked the national top 10. The 2003 squad led the nation in blocking (3.72/set) and broke the school record for the second year in a row (after the previous mark had stood since 1988). Additionally, then-sophomore Lauren Brewster was tops in Division I in individual blocking (1.78/set) in 2003 after finishing fourth as a rookie. Those marked the first two NCAA statistical crowns in Notre Dame history. Davis was instrumental in the development of Brewster, as well as two of her classmates, Lauren

Kelbley and Carolyn Cooper. In 2004, Brewster became the first Notre Dame player ever to be named an AVCA All-American. Kelbley, who was a middle blocker during the first half of her career before moving to outside hitter, was three times tabbed honorable mention All-America after being the rookie of the year for both the BIG EAST Conference and the AVCA's Northeast Region in 2002. In his first five years at Notre Dame, Davis helped Brewster, Kelbley, and 2001 graduate Malinda Goralski accounted for three of the top eight individual seasons by Irish players in hitting percentage and four of the top nine in blocking. Brewster set a Notre Dame freshman record for both blocks (175) and block average (1.68) in 2002, while her 161 block assists were the most-ever for an Irish player in a season. In Davis' first season, Goralski led the BIG EAST Conference in blocking (1.66) and finished sixth in Division I, while the team's average of 3.42 was good for fifth nationally and the top mark by a Notre Dame squad since 1988. The average was 0.49 higher than Notre Dame's mark in 2000. Goralski, the BIG EAST Player of the Year, was also second in the conference with a .379 hitting percentage that was the second-highest by an Irish player in school history. In 2002, the Irish broke the 14-year-old school record with a block average of 3.66 that was bettered by only one Division I team (Nebraska). That season also saw Brewster, Kelbley, Emily Loomis and Katie Neff each finish with 1.00 blocks/set on the season, a feat they would duplicate in 2003 after it had never been done before in Irish history. Prior to coming to Notre Dame, Davis spent two seasons at Northern Arizona, helping it qualify for the NCAA Tournament in 1999 for the first time in school history. Northern Arizona also captured a share of the Big Sky Conference title in 2000, another program first. Davis served as Northern Arizona's recruiting coordinator and was heavily involved in on-court coaching, focusing on the middle blockers and helping with advanced scouting.

Davis led Biola to the NAIA national semifinals twice, including a loss in the title match in 1997. His Biola squads posted 20 wins six times, advanced to the regional semifinals seven times, and captured two league titles. In `97, Biola earned the national sportsmanship award. Davis left Biola as the winningest coach in the history of the school, accruing 221 wins and a .734 winning percentage. A 1979 graduate of Northern Arizona with a degree in physical education, Davis also served as athletics director at Brethren Christian High School in Cypress, Calif., spending nine years coaching volleyball, basketball and baseball. While at Brethren Christian, he also had assistant principal duties. As a player, Davis was a member of the NAU men's volleyball club team while in college and spent time on the USVBA indoor tour (1979-85), the beach volleyball circuit (1982-87), and the AVP tour (1986-87). When he left California, Davis held an AAA rating as an open beach player.
Matthew Botsford Assistant Coach 3rd Season Tri-State '98
Matthew Botsford joined the Irish coaching staff in the spring of 2008. Botsford is in his third season as an assistant coach at Notre Dame after serving in a similar role at the University of Miami from 2004-07 season. During his four-year tenure with the Hurricanes, Botsford's primary coaching responsibilities dealt with the development of the outside hitters and middle blockers, and the coordination of off-campus recruiting and scouting. In '04, Botsford and the Hurricanes surged to a second-place finish in the regular season standings after the team’s first full season as members of the Atlantic Coast Conference. Botsford developed a reputation for not only attracting, but also developing highly talented players for the program at Miami. In fact, he tutored a trio of All-Americans in Val Tipiana (Miami’s all-time kills leader and the first Hurrican to ever reach the 1,000-kill plateau), Frannie Savage (all-ACC and all-AVCA Region honoree) and Karla Johnson (ACC kills leader in 2005). He also spearheaded the recruiting efforts to help bring Arielle Cook, Miami’s first-ever Fab 50 recruit, to the Coral Gables campus. Botsford made his way to Miami courtesy of IUPUI, where he spent three seasons as an assistant coach with the Jaguars. As part of the IUPUI coaching staff, Botsford helped lead a number of players to success on the court, including two-time Mid-Continent Conference Player of the Year Rebekah Pallikan. Prior to his three-year stay at IUPUI, Botsford served as the interim head coach for both the men's and women's teams from 1998-99 at his alma mater, Tri-State University. He then ventured to the University of Indianapolis where he was an assistant coach during the 1999 season. He has also spent time as a coach with Circle City Volleyball Club (Ind.) and Prairie Heights High School (Ind.).
In the spring of 2003 he enjoyed a professional volleyball career with the Vingaker Volleyball Club of Sweden. He displayed his all-around skills by emerging as one of the team's most prolific player, leading the squad in blocks and hitting percentage throughout the playoffs. Botsford helped guide Vingaker to the finals of the Swedish Elite Series and a berth in the European CEV Cup for the first time in the team's 30-year history. He competed on the Midwest Professional Volleyball Association (MPVA) beach volleyball tour from 19982003 and was named to the 2001 MPVA "Dream Team", which was comprised of the tour's top six players. Botsford also spent time on the Extreme Volleyball Professionals (EVP) Amstel Light Tour and was named the EVP Rookie of the Year in 2000. In 2002 as a member of the Surf City Volleyball Club, he won a bronze medal at the USAV Open Championships in Dallas, Texas, and was named to the all-tournament team. Botsford served on the coaching staff of the USA Volleyball Girls Select A1 Team for the 2007 USA Volleyball High Performance Championships in Ft. Lauderdale, Fla. He returned to help lead the program’s 2008 session in Tucson, Ariz, and again in 2009. Botsford graduated from Tri-State University in '98 with a degree in social studies education. As a studentathlete for the Thunder, he led the school to its first NAIA/MIVA Championship in 1998. In each of his fouryears at Tri-State, Botsford was an all-conference and academic all-conference selection. He finished his collegiate career as the school's all-time leader in kills, blocks, and digs. Tri-State inducted him into its Athletics Hall of Fame in 2006. He received his master's degree in business administration from the University of Indianapolis in 2004.
Alisha Ewing Operations Intern Volleyball Bethel '05
Alisha Ewing joined the Irish volleyball staff in the summer of 2008 as the program’s intern after a three-year collegiate coaching stint. She handles video filming and editing, team travel and administrative duties. A native of Rochester, Ind., Ewing graduated from Rochester High School after earning four letters in volleyball, basketball, and track & field. She earned allconference honors in each of those three sports during her final three prep campaigns. Rochester’s volleyball and basketball squads earned the sectional championship when Ewing was a senior. Ewing also edged out former Irish volleyball and track & field All-American Emily Loomis in Indiana’s prep high jump. Ewing enjoyed a successful collegiate career as she stared for Bethel College (Ind.) in volleyball and track. She was the NCCAA indoor and outdoor high jump champion in 2003-04 and an NAIA All-American in the event from 2002-05.

NCAA Tournament Dec. 10-11 – Regionals Seattle, Wash. • University Park, Pa. • Austin, Texas • Dayton, Ohio Dec. 16-18 – Final Four Sprint Center • Kansas City, Mo. (hosted by UMKC and the Greater Kansas City Sports Commission) The NCAA Division I Women’s Volleyball Championship began in 1981 with a 20-team field. From 1982-85, 28 teams earned invitations until the field expanded to 32 teams in 1986. In 1993, the invitation list was enlarged to 48 with 16 teams gaining first-round byes. After one year of experimentation with a 56-squad event (1997), with the top eight seeds receiving opening byes, the current 64-team format was adopted in 1998.

Byron V. Kanaley Award The most prestigious honor awarded to a Notre Dame student-athlete, the Byron V. Kanaley Award has been presented each year since 1927 to the senior monogram athletes who have been most exemplary as both students and leaders. The award, presented by the Faculty Board on Athletics, is named in honor of a 1904 Notre Dame graduate who was a member of the Irish baseball team as an undergraduate. Kanaley went on to a successful banking career in Chicago and served the University as a lay trustee from 1915 until his death in 1960. The Notre Dame volleyball team has had eight of its players honored with the Kanaley Award, which is presented at the spring athletic department awards dinner: Terese Henken (1984), Alicia Turner (1993), Julie Harris (1994), Jaimie Lee (1998), Keara Coughlin (2003), Kristen Kinder (2004), Emily Loomis (2005) and Adrianna Stasiuk (2007).

Francis Patrick O’Connor Award
Leadership of Distinction Award
The Francis Patrick O’Connor Award honors male and female student-athletes who best display the total embodiment of the true spirit of Notre Dame as exemplified by their contributions and inspirations to their respective teams. To be considered, student-athletes must possess those qualities attributed to Pat O’Connor: caring, courage, confidence, encouragement, humility, honesty, humor, kindness and patience.
The Leadership of Distinction Award is given to individuals who are deemed exceptional leaders by their coaches and teammates, based on the results of a 360-degree evaluation.
Since 1993, the University has presented this award in the name of O’Connor, a former student-athlete who died in 1973 following his freshman year at Notre Dame. Pat was the son of William “Bucky” O’Connor, who played guard for the Notre Dame football team in the 1940s.

Irish in the BIG EAST
hough all 16 members of the BIG EAST Conference field women’s volleyball teams, Providence College ceased its league participation in the sport after the 2002 season. The other 15 schools take part in round-robin play during the regular season, and the top eight teams then participate in the BIG EAST Championship, a single-elimination tournament with the winner receiving the conference’s automatic berth to the NCAA Tournament. This championship format is a departure from the traditional four-team event that had been in place since the Irish joined the league (with the exception of 1999, when the league experimented with an expanded three-day, six-team event). Notre Dame has experienced unprecedented success in the 15 years since joining the league in 1995. The Irish have compiled a 162-21 (.885) regular-season mark, highlighted by nine tournament titles and winning streaks of 45 and 35 consecutive matches. Notre Dame once earned 58-straight victories at home in BIG EAST regular-season play. Irish volleyball squads carried a home conference winning streak of 74 straight matches from 1991 to 2004, which includes wins over both Midwestern Conference and BIG EAST opponents. Notre Dame has streaked through the BIG EAST regular season slate seven times without a loss (most recently in 2009 after going 14-0) while becoming just the second team to go undefeated since the leage adopted the 14-match format in 2005. The Irish have won nine BIG EAST Tournament championships, posting a 28-6 (.885) mark in the event while reaching the final match in its first 12 tournaments. After taking a one-year hiatus from the finals, the Irish returned in 2008 before falling to Louisville. Notre Dame has also dominated the league’s postseason awards, winning both player-ofthe-year and coach-of-the-year awards on six occasions. On nine occasions, Irish players have been named the league tournament’s most outstanding player. Notre Dame student-athletes have garnered 54 allconference accolades - including 29 first-team honors. Prior to joining the BIG EAST, Notre Dame was a member of the North Star Conference from 1983-87 and the Midwestern Collegiate Conference from 1990-94. The Irish won regular-season and tournament titles in the NSC in 1986 and 1987, then captured both the regular-season and tournament championships in the MCC from 1991-1994. In 24 years of conference participation, Notre Dame has won 17 regular-season crowns and 15 league tournaments while compiling a 219-34 (.866) mark in regular-season conference matches.

The BIG EAST Conference The 2010-11 academic year will be the 32nd in the history of The BIG EAST Conference as the unique consortium marches on competing at the highest level with integrity and sportsmanship. The BIG EAST has gone through membership changes since its birth, but the 2010-11 year will mark the conference’s sixth straight with the same 16-member group, the nation’s largest Division I-A conference. The BIG EAST Conference’s goals have always been the same. The outstanding performances of the student-athletes at BIG EAST schools are evidence of the league’s proud tradition of success. The league has always been able to boast that many of its best students are also its best athletes. The 2009-10 year was no different. Seven BIG EAST student-athletes were named NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship winners. Maya Moore, Connecticut’s women’s basketball standout, won the NCAA Honda-Broderick Award as the nation’s top female student-athlete. She also was named the ESPN The Magazine Academic All-American of the Year for women’s basketball. Moore was the fifth BIG EAST women’s student-athlete to win the Honda-Broderick Award. In the athletic arena, BIG EAST student-athletes again enjoyed success on the national stage. The Connecticut women’s basketball team won its second straight national championship and its seventh overall crown. The Villanova women’s cross country team also won the NCAA title. The Notre Dame women’s soccer team reached the NCAA College Cup for the second straight year. The Syracuse women’s lacrosse squad reached the Final Four. On the men’s side, West Virginia’s basketball team became the BIG EAST’s 16th team to reach the NCAA Final Four and won the conference’s academic achievement award. The Notre Dame men’s lacrosse team advanced to the NCAA championship game. Individually, three BIG EAST student-athletes won NCAA titles. Cincinnati’s Josh Schneider won the 50 freestyle in men’s swimming. In track, Louisville’s D’Ana McCarty repeated as the NCAA indoor winner in the weight throw. Louisville’s Matt Hughes won the 3,000 steeplechase. Another Cardinal, Austen Childs, was the national runner-up in men’s tennis singles. BIG EAST football maintained its national profile as a competitively balanced group. Cincinnati won its second straight league championship in 2009 and compiled an undefeated regular season. The Bearcats finished third in the final Bowl Championship Series standings. Six of the league’s eight squads went to bowl games and helped the BIG EAST post a 4-2 bowl record. Rutgers, one of the bowl winners, also was recognized for having the nation’s highest NCAA APR rating, which measures academic success. The BIG EAST has continued to produce studentathletes who are at the forefront of athletic and academic achievement. In 2009-10, 22 BIG EAST players from 10 schools were chosen to their respective ESPN The Magazine Academic All-America Teams. Over 400 student-athletes have earned academic allAmerica honors. The BIG EAST became the nation’s largest Division I-A conference in 2005-06 when five new members began competing. The new schools were: University of Cincinnati, DePaul University, University of Louisville, Marquette University and the University of South Florida. BIG EAST institutions reside in nine of the nation’s top 35 largest media markets, including New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, Washington, D.C., Tampa, Pittsburgh, Hartford, Cincinnati and Milwaukee. With its newest
members, BIG EAST markets contain almost one-fourth of all television households in the U.S. Since opening its doors in 1979, the league has won 28 national championships in six different sports and 128 student-athletes have won individual national titles. In 2003-04, Connecticut became the first school in NCAA history to win the men’s and women’s NCAA basketball titles in the same season. In ’02-03, the BIG EAST became the first conference in NCAA history to win the men’s and women’s titles in the same year when the Syracuse men and the Connecticut women captured their respective national championships. In men’s basketball, BIG EAST squads have won three of the last 12 NCAA championships. BIG EAST women’s teams have taken seven of the last 11 NCAA titles. Proactive movement has been a signature strategy for the conference that was born in 1979. The BIG EAST continually turns challenges into opportunities to become stronger. In 2009-10, the BIG EAST added men’s lacrosse to its growing list of sports, which increased its total to 24 sport championships. The BIG EAST became a reality on May 31, 1979, following a meeting of athletic directors from Providence College, St. John’s, Georgetown and Syracuse universities. Seton Hall, Connecticut and Boston College completed the original seven‑school alliance. While the membership has both increased and changed, the focus of the BIG EAST has not wavered. The conference reflects a tradition of broad‑based programs, led by administrators and coaches who place a constant emphasis on academic integrity. Its student‑athletes own significantly high graduation rates and their record of scholastic achievement notably show a balance between intercollegiate athletics and academics.
Any successful organization has had the good fortune to have outstanding leadership. The BIG EAST primarily was the brainchild of Dave Gavitt, who was the conference’s first Commissioner. Michael Tranghese, the league’s first full-time employee, and for 11 years the associate to Gavitt, became Commissioner in 1990. In his first year, he administered the formation of The BIG EAST Football Conference. In 2009-10, the BIG EAST had one significant change. Tranghese stepped down from his position on June 30, 2009. John Marinatto, who had served as senior associate commissioner, moved into the Commissioner’s chair and continued to steer the conference on its path of success. The league has long been considered a leader in innovative concepts in promotion and publicity, particularly regarding television. Those efforts have resulted in unparalleled visibility for BIG EAST student‑athletes. The conference has enjoyed longstanding relationships with CBS, ESPN, Inc. and ABC. BIG EAST men’s basketball games are regular sellouts at campus and major public arenas, including the annual men’s BIG EAST Championship in Madison Square Garden. The women’s basketball championship has led all conferences in attendance for the past seven years. Attendance figures also are significant in soccer and baseball. More than 575 BIG EAST student-athletes have earned all‑America recognition and dozens have won individual NCAA national championships. The BIG EAST has been well‑represented in U.S. or foreign national and Olympic teams. Several athletes earned gold medals. The BIG EAST has its headquarters in Providence where the conference administers to more than 5,500 student-athletes.

T
he University of Notre Dame has become a staple in the NCAA Division I Women’s Volleyball Championship under the watch of head coach Debbie Brown after making just one visit to the tournament before her arrival. The Irish earned 15 consecutive bids to the NCAAs from 1992-2006 to become just one of eight schools that appeared in each of the 15 NCAA tournaments over that stretch (along with Stanford, Penn State, UC Santa Barbara, Nebraska, Long Beach State, USC, and Florida). The Irish have an all-time record of 14-17 (.452) in NCAA Championship play, highlighted by six trips to the round of 16 and a finish in the 1993 quarterfinal. The Irish made the most of their first-ever NCAA berth in 1988 by upsetting No. 20 Penn State in the opening round. Notre Dame then traveled to No. 4 Illinois and took the Illini to the wire before falling in five games. The 1993 squad put together the school’s deepest postseason run compliments to wins over No. 8 Nebraska at home in three games and a five-game win at Minnesota to reach the quarterfinals. That team’s run ended at the hands of No. 7 Penn State. The Irish also were among the final 16 in each of the next two seasons (1994-95) and completed a stretch of four round-of-16 appearances in five years with a second-round win over No. 18 Arkansas in 1997. Notre Dame returned to the final 16 in 2005, beating Dayton and Northwestern at home before losing in five games to No. 12 Wisconsin. Notre Dame has played host to NCAA Tournament action on seven occasions, going 8-2 on its home court. The Irish stayed at home for firstround play in 1988 and 1993-1995 before hosting first- and second-round action in 1996, 2002 and 2005. The NCAA Division I Women’s Volleyball Championship began in 1981 with a 20-team field. From 1982-85, 28 teams earned invitations until the field expanded to 32 teams in 1986. In 1993, the invitation list was enlarged to 48 with 16 teams gaining first-round byes. After one year of experimentation with a 56-squad event (1997), with the top eight seeds receiving opening byes, the current 64-team format was adopted in 1998. First- and second-round action takes place at 16 campus sites, with the winners advancing to four pre-determined regional sites.

Purcell Pavilion at the Joyce Center Notre Dame’s Purcell Pavilion at the Joyce Center, the home of Irish volleyball since the establishment of the varsity program in 1980, has become one of the most difficult sites in the nation for road teams to win, especially since the arrival of head coach Debbie Brown in 1991. Over the last 17 years, Notre Dame has posted a 209-42 home record for an impressive .833 winning percentage, including perfect marks of 17-0 and 12-0 during the 1994 and 2001 campaigns, respectively. The Irish have pieced together a variety of impressive winning streaks on their home floor. Notre Dame has won 14 or more matches in a row at home on five different occasions, highlighted by a streak of 27 straight home wins from 1993-95 and a program-best 36-match winning streak from 2000-02. The Joyce Center may not be a favorite venue for league opponents, as Notre Dame won 74 consecutive regular-season conference matches in the Joyce Center from Brown’s arrival in 1991 through the 2004 campaign. Upon joining the BIG EAST Conference in 1995, the first 61 league teams to play in the Joyce Center were defeated before Pittsburgh upset the Irish in the 2003 BIG EAST Championship finale. On 16 occasions, Notre Dame has topped ranked teams in the Joyce Center, including six wins over top-10 opponents. In 1993, the Irish downed national power Nebraska twice at home, first defeating the thirdranked Cornhuskers in four sets in the Golden Dome Invitational in September and then winning in three games in the second round of the NCAA Championship when Nebraska was No. 8 in the nation. Other notable wins in the Joyce Center include a set triumph over No. 9 USC in 1995, and a five-set marathon victory vs. No. 10 Pepperdine in the 2002 Golden Dome Invitational. In 2005, the Irish boasted home wins over both No. 11 Texas and No. 6 Louisville. Most recently, Notre Dame toppled No. 5 Stanford with a 3-0 sweep in the opening weekend of the 2009 campaign. In 30 seasons of volleyball action, Notre Dame holds a 289-88 (.767) mark in the Joyce Center, which celebrated its 35th year of service to the University in 2003. The facility also serves as a multipurpose sports complex, a theatre and concert hall, a convention center, and an office building. The first-ever volleyball match played in the north dorm of the facility (also known as “the Field House”) was in 2007, when No. 7 Florida handed the Irish a 3-1 defeat. The Irish returned to the Field House for the bulk of the 2009 season as the main arena underwent renovations. Notre Dame volleyball played its matches in “the Pit,” an intimate gymnasium in the basement of the Joyce Center, from 1980-83 until increased attendance served as the impetus for a move to the basketball arena. The Irish played in “the Pit” again in 1986 due to renovation, but other than that, have had their home matches in the south arena since 1984. In 1999, a new Sport Court volleyball-only playing surface debuted in the Joyce Center, completing the facility’s evolution into one of the top volleyball venues in the country. Interest in the Irish volleyball program has steadily increased over the past several of seasons, as crowds of more than 1,000 have taken in Notre Dame matches on 51 occasions since 2000. The six largest gatherings – all over 3,000 fans – came for matches preceding football pep rallies, held in the Joyce Center on Fridays before home games. In 2003, the Notre DameVirginia Tech match-up that ended with a thrilling five-set Irish victory was played before a record crowd of 8,643. That season also featured the largest-ever non-pep rally crowd for volleyball, as 2,715 witnessed Notre Dame beat rival Miami in three games in a match televised live by College Sports Television (CSTV). Over 1,500 fans were in attendance when the
Irish downed No. 17 Louisville, 3-1, in the 2007 Senior Day match televised by ESPNU. The facility underwent a major facelift which wrapped up in 2009. Groundbreaking ceremonies for the new Purcell Pavilion, including the Joyce Center arena addition and renovation, were held in September 2008. The first phase of the project involved construction of a new threestory structure at the south end of the arena. That structure includes a new three-story lobby, the Notre Dame ticket operations and a varsity shop to sell apparel and souvenirs, in addition to a new club seating and hospitality area. Replacement of the existing Joyce Center arena seating, including installation of chair-back seating throughout the arena, began after the University's Commencement Exercises in May 2009. The University announced in October 2007 that this $26.3 million project had received a $12.5 million leadership gift from Notre Dame alumnus and Trustee Philip J. Purcell III, the retired chairman and chief executive officer of Morgan Stanley. The arena is the home for Notre Dame teams in men's and women's basketball and women's volleyball - as well as Commencement, concerts, Masses and other events. Originally opened in December 1968 as the Athletic and Convocation Center, the Irish facility in 1987 was renamed the Edmund P. Joyce Center after former longtime University executive vice president Rev. Edmund P. Joyce, C.S.C. Among those notables who have appeared at the Joyce Center are six presidents - Jimmy Carter, George H. Bush, Gerald Ford, Ronald Reagan (twice), George W. Bush (twice) and Barack Obama -- as well as entertainment legends Elvis Presley, Frank Sinatra, Bruce Springsteen, Billy Joel, Elton John and U-2. The building was dedicated Dec. 1-8, 1968, with a weeklong series of events dubbed Performance Maximus - and included concerts by Andy Williams and Bill Cosby and a Notre Dame-UCLA basketball game. Notre Dame christened the renovated Purcell Pavilion at the Joyce Center on Oct. 31, 2009, with a 3-1 win against Seton Hall. In fact, the match’s opening serve dealt by Kristen Dealy fell for an ace.

History l
T he University of Notre Dame du Lac was founded in 1842 by Father Edward Sorin. Adjacent to South Bend, Ind., and nestled next to St. Mary’s and Saint Joseph’s Lakes, the University was started with $310 in cash and three log buildings in disrepair. l Notre Dame would establish many firsts for Catholic institutions of higher learning, including the first Catholic law school, the first Catholic engineering school and the first student residence with private rooms, Sorin Hall.
Academics l
