In 2012, Fresno State added new scoreboards at two of its athletic venues - Bulldog Diamond and the Student Horse Center. The new scoreboard at the Bulldog Diamond came as a result of a planned gift to the Fresno State softball program from Vonnie Fogard, a long-time season ticket holder and member of the Bulldog Softball Diamond Club. The new Daktronics LED matrix color scoreboard replaces the old matrix board that was first installed when Bulldog Diamond was built in 1996. Meanwhile at the Student Horse Center, the scoreboard is the first to ever be installed at an NCEA (National Collegiate Equestrian Association) Equestrian venue. The project was spearheaded by the Saddle Club, the equestrian team booster club, who raised all funding exclusively through private funds. The electronic scoreboard is a 5’ x 12’ Daktronics LED.

SPALDING G. WATHEN

TENNIS CENTER Opened on Feb. 1, 1998, the Spalding G. Wathen Tennis Center is one of the premier tennis facilities in the western United States and has become a key fixture in the recent success of the Fresno State men’s tennis team.

TENNIS CENTER FACTS

16

Beginning in the summer of 2002, the Wathen Tennis Center underwent an expansion that enhanced the look of the facility. In addition to resurfacing all 12 courts and replacing all wind screens, the grass berm and wrought-iron fencing that runs along the east side of the Center was extended to the north end of the courts. This allows spectators to comfortably enjoy viewing on all 12 courts and makes the complex the ideal location for WAC and NCAA Tournaments. Additionally, a generous donation from the Wathen family allowed for the addition of lights during the summer of 2005.

The six courts inside the stadium are now surrounded by light towers, making the facility the perfect home for night matches. The Tennis Center was a result of a $250,000 donation from longtime Fresno State tennis supporter Spalding Wathen, an area homebuilder. The donation turned a good facility into a great one. Not long after receiving Wathen’s donation, three new courts were constructed and six existing courts were resurfaced. A raised earthen berm was constructed alongside the six southernmost courts and an elevated viewing platform consisting of steel reinforced concrete was built between the six main courts. Approximately 400 luxury chair-back seats atop the platform face the complex’s six main courts, making for easy viewing of all six courts while a dual match is in progress. Courts are also equipped with Colorado Time System scoreboards that keep running scores during matches, allowing spectators the opportunity to immediately know the score on every match at the facility. The facility is widely regarded as being unmatched in the San Joaquin Valley for ideal viewing for tennis matches.

The facility has played host to numerous NCAA events as well as the 2001 WAC Tournament. The Bulldogs hosted the first and second rounds of the NCAA Tournament in 1999 and 2000. Perhaps the Center’s most memorable match came during the 1999 NCAA’s, when Fresno State knocked off USC 4-1 in the second round before a throng of over 1,000 enthusiastic fans. The ‘Dogs enjoy enthusiastic crowds at the spectator-friendly facility, and the support has lifted the program to a fantastic record at home. The ‘Dogs are 136-19 all-time in the facility, including a 9-2 mark in 2009.

For Fresno State’s men’s tennis team, this season is going to have plenty of change.

In his first season at the helm of the Bulldogs, Coach Austin will bring his experience not only as a coach, but also as a player to take the ’Dogs to the next level.

A new leader emerged in August as Evan Austin was hired as the seventh head coach in program history. With the loss of five starters, three to graduation and two to transfer, the Bulldogs have nearly a completely new look to the roster.

Austin played collegiately at Kentucky where he earned a career-best ITA singles ranking of No. 65 in 2002 and he held an ATP ranking from 2000-03. A three-year letterwinner, Austin was a co-captain of the 200304 Wildcat squad that finished the season ranked No. 14 nationally. As a junior player in 2000, Austin was ranked No. 4 in the U.S. in the 18-and-under division where he had victories over ATP professionals Andy Roddick, Mardy Fish, Joachim

With the addition of two freshmen in January, as well as a junior transfer at the beginning of the fall, the ’Dogs roster is comprised of just six players. Returning for the Bulldogs are junior Jeremy Quiroz and sophomores Reid deLaubenfels and Sai Kartik Nakireddi. DeLaubenfels saw the most action in dual matches a season ago posting a 12-11 record, while the other returns were a combined 5-2 in 2012. The new additions to the lineup

Junior transfer Sam MacNeil hails from Scotland and attended Division II’s Brevard College for the past two years. MacNeil was named the 2012 South Atlantic Conference Player of the Year and 2011 SAC Freshman of the Year. In January, the Bulldogs picked up a pair of freshman from Santiago, Chile in Nikolas Papic and Felipe Fritz to round out the lineup.

At the ITA Regionals, the Bulldogs found success in doubles as the duo of Sam MacNeil and Reid deLaubenfels advanced to the Round of 16 with a thrilling 9-8(2) victory over a doubles team from Sacramento State.

Men’s tennis

2011-12 SEASON REVIEW The Fresno State men’s tennis team, led by eighth season head coach Jay Udwadia finished the historic 2011-12 season that was highlighted by one of the greatest upsets in program history, an undefeated WAC record, a WAC Championship title, a 21-5 overall record, automatic NCAA Tournament bid, a WAC Player of the Year, a two-time WAC Coach of the Year, three ITA awards for the Northwest region, a second-team Capital One Academic All-American, the Male Bulldog of the Year for Fresno State, four team members honored at the WAC Championships and four team members named WAC Athlete of the Week nine of 13 weeks in the season. The team consisting of three seniors, one junior, and three freshmen showed that despite all odds the Bulldogs were ready to give any team a run for its money. The ‘Dogs earned their second consecutive WAC Championship title and went undefeated in regular season conference play, going 5-0. Fresno State entered into the ITA Rankings pre-season at No. 35, climbed the rankings as high as No. 14 and finished the season ranked 37th. In a busy fall season, the Dogs competed in the ITA Southwest Championships, Larry Easley Memorial Class in Las Vegas, Nev. and Fresno State’s annual Bulldog Classic. Sophomore Francis Alcantara was named the victor of the Bulldog Classic and also named runner up at the ITA Southwest Championships in singles and in doubles with his partner Senior Remi Boutillier. Boutillier competed in the HEB Baylor Invitational, where he advanced to the Sweet 16, became the first Bulldog since 2008 to make the quarterfinals at the ITA All-American Tournament and was the only player to compete from the Western Athletic Conference in the prestigious Na‑ tional Indoor Competition in October where he reached the Sweet 16. The tournament season provided the Bulldogs a chance to gain more valuable experience and prepare them for spring season.

The victories continued for the Bulldogs in Las Cruces, N.M. for the WAC Championships. In the semifinals, the team swept Nevada in a 4-0 victory. The ‘Dogs swept the Pack in doubles with wins from the No. 1 and No. 3 teams. deLaubenfels and Diame defeated Nathan Reix and Moez Charqui, 8-6, at No. 3 doubles. The Bulldogs clinched the doubles point at No. 1, Boutiller and Alcantara topped Wessim Derbel and Fernando Sunago, 8-5. In singles, the Bulldogs clinched the win with three consecutive victories from the one, four and five positions. At No. 1, Boutillier defeated Wessim Derbel, 6-1, 6-1, and Ayoun bested Fernando Sunago, 6-2, 6-4, at No. 4. deLaubenfels clinched the win for the `Dogs with a 7-6 (5), 6-3 victory over Jordan Rozenfeld at the No. 5 position. In the final round, the Bulldogs battled Idaho. The Bulldogs dropped the doubles’ point to the Vandals by a 2-0 decision to start the match, but rallied in singles to capture the title. Leslie and Ayoun, suffered an 8-3 loss to Idaho’s No. 2 doubles team Abid Akbar and Andrew Dobbs and Boutillier and Alcantara fell to Jose Bendeck and Cristobal Ramos, 8-5, at No. 1. Despite the 1-0 deficit leading into singles play, the `Dogs returned to the courts with determina‑ tion to earn the prized title of WAC Champions for a second time. At the No. 2 spot, Alcantara topped Akbar, 6-4, 6-2, and Boutillier followed suit with a 6-3, 6-2 defeat of Marius Cirstea at No. 1 to put the `Dogs back in the lead, 2-1. At No. 3, Diame bested Ramos, 6-1, 6-2, to put the Bulldogs within one point of the champion‑ ship title. However, Idaho’s Alan Shin would not go down without a fight, defeating DeLauben‑

There were many exciting moments throughout the extraordinary season for the ‘Dogs against top-ranked foes. For the first time in program history the Bulldogs defeated Stanford, 4-3, which catapulted the ‘Dogs to No. 14 in the national rank‑ ings. It marked the team’s highest national ranking in 12 years when the Bulldogs were ranked 12th in the nation in 2000.

The honors kept rolling in during the post season. Udwadia earned ITA Northwest region Coach of the Year, Alcantara was named ITA Northwest region Player to Watch and Boutillier earned Senior of the Year for the ITA Northwest region. Boutillier was also named Capital One Academic All-America men’s at-large second-team and Capital One Academic All-District men’s at-large first-team for his 3.87 GPA. The ‘Dogs made their third-straight and 13th overall NCAA Tournament appearance against USD. The Bulldogs fell to the Toreros, 4-0, in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. The team dropped the doubles point the Toreros in a 2-0 decision. The Bulldogs’ duo of Alcantara and Boutillier fell to Patrick Pohlmann and Thibaut Visy, 8-3, at the No. 1 position. San Diego clinched the doubles point at the No. 3 spot when deLaubenfels and Diame suffered an 8-5 loss to Nikola Bubnic and Ciaran Fitzgerald. In singles, the Toreros continued to gain momentum.

At No. 6 singles freshman Reid deLaubenfels bested Jamin Ball in a close match at No. 6 singles, 7-5, 3-6, 6-3, to tie the match and place the fate of the win on the last match. In a thrilling battle at the No. 1 spot, Boutillier edged No. 37 Ryan Thacher in a tiebreaker, 6-4, 3-6, 7-6 (5), to clinch the point for the Bulldogs and earn the `Dogs their first-ever victory against the Cardinal.

Boutillier and Alcantara also received automatic bids to the NCAA Doubles Champi‑ onships. It was the third –consecutive appearance for Boutiller and a first for Alcan‑ tara. The duo reached a highest ITA ranking of 51st in the country during the season. The tandem ended their season in the first round of the tournament where they lost a tough three-set match to Georgia Tech’s third-ranked duo of Kevin King and Juan Spir, 7-6, 5-7, 6-2. They finished the season ranked 58th nationally.

The ‘Dogs knocked-off 12 non-conference competitors including No. 40 UC Ir‑ vine, No. 61 Saint Mary’s, No. 48 Santa Clara, No. 63 UNLV, No. 42 San Diego State, No. 53 Cal Poly and No. 55 UCSB, San Francisco, Wisconsin, UC Davis and Pacific. The Bulldogs went undefeated in conference play throughout the regular sea‑ son, defeating Nevada, 6-1, Idaho, 6-1, New Mexico State, 6-1, Hawaii, 6-1 and sweeping Utah State, 7-0, which clinched the Bulldogs’ regular season champi‑ onship title. These victories gave the ‘Dogs their 5-0 record and the No.1-seeded position for the WAC Championships.

“This was a special season for the Bulldogs,” Udwadia said. “I’m proud of how the team stayed focused all year long and it was nice to have the amount of success we did.”

2012

With a proven track record of strong leadership, integrity, sound academic values and athletics achievement, Thomas Boeh enters his 31st year of athletics administration, 18th year as an NCAA Division I-A Director of Athletics and eighth year at Fresno State, including leading the Bulldogs’ transition into the Mountain West Conference. In July of 2005, Boeh was charged to stabilize, reform and revitalize the athletics program at Fresno State. As a result of this charge, the Department of Athletics has been entirely restructured with a new senior administrative team. Special emphasis has been placed upon a consistent and value-based approach to decision-making, as well as clearly delineating areas of responsibilities with built-in accountability. Considerable attention has been directed towards creating a progressive studentathlete environment and strict adherence to welldefined NCAA compliance protocols and standards. New polices have been developed regarding student-athletes recruitment, oversight and welfare. The Student-Athlete Code of Conduct and Substance Abuse Educational and Testing Program have been reviewed and strengthened, and the Student-Athlete Advisory Council has been reenergized. Departmental and institutional protocols relative to admissions, financial aid and eligibility have all been restructured in conjunction with campus leaders. Fresno State’s student-athletes have benefited significantly from these measures and, in conjunction with enhanced support services, they have fostered a better-quality experience that is reflected in greatly improved Academic Progress Rates, fewer Code of Conduct violations and extensive community service activity. Additionally, all athletics fundraising activities have been consolidated within the new Bulldog Foundation and philanthropic gifts to Athletics have risen to record levels.

rankings. Since 2005, conference championships and advancement to NCAA Championship competition has been achieved in the sports of women’s basketball, track & field, women’s soccer, baseball, women’s golf, softball and men’s and women’s tennis, with four enjoying a Top-20 national ranking, and baseball capturing the 2008 National Championship. Additionally, Fresno State studentathletes have advanced to post-season competition in the sports of football, men’s basketball and equestrian. The success of Bulldog studentathletes led Fresno State to three Western Athletic Conference Commissioner’s Cups in a five-year span (2007-08, 2008-09 & 2011-12). Additionally, Sports Illustrated’s SI.com ranked Fresno State the nation’s 18th most accomplished NCAA Division I athletics program for 2007-08. Prior to his arrival in Fresno in July of 2005, Boeh spent the previous 10 years as the Director of Athletics at Ohio University, where he led the program to exceptional levels in numerous categories and earning numerous conference championships. In 2001, The Sporting News ranked Ohio’s department 32nd among the 115 NCAA I-A institutions, the highest ranking of any non-BCS program. The ranking included evaluations for competitive success, fan support, integrity and equity. Ohio earned an “A” rating in graduation rates and NCAA compliance and posted an eight-year high graduation rate of 73 percent in 2004.

Prior to his tenure at Ohio, Boeh served as Associate Director of Athletics for External Affairs at Northwestern University, overseeing areas such as development, marketing, ticket operations, sports publications, media services, game management and broadcast properties. Boeh also led the popular “Expect Victory” campaign, Northwestern’s firstever multimedia marketing effort. Preceding Northwestern, Boeh served the University of Maine as Senior Associate Director of Athletics for Administration and Development. He also spent time in a variety of roles with the Big Ten Television Network, The University of Illinois, and his alma mater, Loras College of Iowa. The Chicago-area native received a Bachelor of Arts degree in Physical Education with a minor in History at Loras in 1981, and a Master of Science degree in Athletic Administration from the University of Illinois at Champaign-Urbana in 1988.

Under Boeh’s leadership, Ohio was extremely aggressive in its efforts to achieve gender equity and compliance with Title IX. Three women’s sports programs were initiated during Boeh’s tenure, and in 2004 The Chronicle of Higher Education reported that Ohio ranked second nationally among all NCAA I-A institutions relative to the equity of men’s and women’s sport program expenditures.

Fresno State Athletics has been working closely with a nationally renowned consultant, a broad-based President-appointed ad hoc committee, and the Office of Civil Rights to remedy all past gender equity issues and create at Fresno State a model Division I Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) athletics program relative to Title IX compliance. One component of this effort is the addition of two new women’s sports; lacrosse and swimming & diving both began competition during the 2008-09 academic year. All athletics facilities have been evaluated and a 10year master plan, inclusive of the “Athletics Mall” and “Student-Athlete Village” has been developed and introduced to the community. Several projects have been completed to date, including a stateof-art aquatics venue, and construction scheduled for another cornerstone project, a sports medicine center.

Additionally, numerous women’s facilities were constructed; sports budgets were restructured and decision-making procedures were reorganized to establish what Boeh refers to as an “authentic gender-neutral environment.” Annual fundraising totals rose more than 500 percent and Ohio Athletics concluded the University’s Bicentennial Capital Campaign by exceeding its $10 million departmental goal.

Fresno State’s competitive level continues to be among the leaders in conference and regional play, and several teams have achieved national

In addition, Boeh served a term as the MidAmerican Conference (MAC) representative to the NCAA Management Council, the NCAA’s

2013

most prestigious governing body for athletics administrators. Boeh also served as the chair of the MAC Athletics Directors’ Group and member of the MAC Executive Council.

Some of the more visible changes on the Ohio campus during Boeh’s tenure were the facilities for student-athlete support services, practice and competition. In all, 44 facilities saw major renovation or new construction and Ohio’s athletics physical plant was recognized as being among the best and most efficient in the Midwest.

A strong advocate of the importance of social media (and extremely active on Twitter @ PaulLadwig), he has also increased the exposure of Fresno State Athletics through the creation of the Bulldog Sports Network, the Bulldog Insider (a weekly television show dedicated solely to coverage of Bulldog Athletics) and finding fresh ways to tell Fresno State stories through new and existing media partnerships. His vision continues to bring fans superior story-telling that incorporate the latest technologies. Collaborating with media rights holder as the department’s liaison to Learfield Sports’ Bulldog Sports Properties, new and additional programming for radio and television were developed. Ladwig led the search for the addition of a living four-legged mascot to the Bulldog family, Victor E. Bulldog. People around the world curious about the Bulldogs will continue to log onto a constantly updating Gobulldogs.com website with expanded content, video and increased participatory site interaction. Fresno State Athletics Communications took the lead nationally in developing a paperless media guide in 2009. Environmental awareness, cost containment, and the ability to provide instant information to the media are several factors in the implementation of this paperless delivery system. With a vast and varied career, Ladwig came to Fresno State after serving as the Assistant Athletics Director for Creative Services at Ohio University. At Ohio University, he was charged with ensuring an effective, consistent and progressive approach from game-day activities to marketing to image enhancement. Ohio saw a record-breaking sellout crowd at Peden Stadium when the Bobcats defeated Pittsburgh on ESPN in their 2005 home opener. Innovative, Ladwig was instrumental in creating the Ohio Sports Network, the refinement of Ohio University’s web presence and the production of programming for public television.
