PREVIEW

2013-14 Women’s Season Preview

AMBER CARTER

Swimming Coach Dave Geyer and Diving Coach Doug Shaffer enter their fourth season as co-head coaches.

The LSU women’s program finished seventh at SEC Championships and 36th at NCAA Championships last season.

NCAA Honorable Mention All-American divers Alex Bettridge and Cassie Weil highlight the Lady Tigers. The returnees also include NCAA qualifiers Torrey Bussey, Rainey White and Amber Carter. Finally, newcomers Kara Kopcso and Colleen O’Neil will provide depth to the Lady Tiger squad.

SENIORS: Torrey Bussey holds the LSU records in the 200 breast and 200 IM. She qualified for her third NCAA Championships and finished 21st in the 100 breaststroke last season.

“Her main goal this year is to qualify for NCAA Championships for the fourth consecutive year and to score in the meet,” LSU swimming coach Dave Geyer said. “She has that potential and talent in the breaststroke or 200 IM. With the experience of the past three years, it will help her as she finsihes her career.”

Rainey White looks to qualify for NCAA Championships for a third consecutive year. The Alabama native swam the third leg of the Lady Tiger’s 200-medley relay, which qualified for the championships.

“She has goals to contribute on relays and make it back to SEC Championships. We will also look to her for relay teams and to make it to NCAA Championships again,” Geyer said.

Parker Glass and Kara Kopcso both hope to make strong returns after disappointing junior seasons. Glass was sidelined for a majority of the year with a back injury. Kopcso faced illness last year and wasn’t able to compete.

“It was a dissapointing year for both of those girls,” Geyer said. “They’ve

2013-14 SWIMMING & DIVING MEDIA GUIDE

made great strides in returning and they’ve come back stronger from this.

We need them in terms of depth and leadership for our young women. They’re crucial for their development.”

Laura Furr, Kyara Jones and Emily Weaner round out the senior class and will be depended on for their leadership and experience.

“We will look to them for their experience and depth,” Geyer said. “We have a lot of newcomers so these Lady Tigers will have an impact on developing the new women. It will help them push harder and push to a new level of competition.”

JUNIORS: Captain Amber Carter leads the Lady Tigers. Carter has qualified for NCAA Championships both years at LSU and will lead the women in the 50 and 100 free.

“She has high ambitions to make a statement in conference and finish in the top-eight of her primary events,” Geyer said. “She will be a driving force on the pool deck and in the water for our women. We are looking at her to step up and really lead our team.”

Alex Bettridge is an NCAA Honorable Mention All-American and experienced SEC diver. Bettridge captured fourth on the one-meter at SEC Championships last season and owns the second best score all-time in LSU history for the three-meter.

“Alex made a tremendous amount of progress last spring and this summer,” LSU diving coach Doug Shaffer said. “Last year was a transitional year and I believe this year will be her breakout year. She has increased her difficulty, and she has exhibited a great deal of maturity throughout her training. She can final at SEC championships, and she can be an NCAA All-American. If it’s possible, she’s even more focused and ready for this season. ” Jennifer Reese is an SEC qualifier and a 2013 SEC Academic Honor Roll member.

“Jennifer will be a key player in the 100 and 200 backstroke,” Geyer said.

“She had a great sophomore season after her first year. We are looking to build upon that and cut her times down going into her junior year.”

2013-14 Women’s Season Preview RAINEY WHITE

Katlin Sepp adds depth to the backstroke events and set season bests at SEC Championships last season. Sepp finished 30th in the 200 back with a time of 1:59.50.

“She is training great right now,” Geyer said. “We’ve run into some injuries with her back, so we’ve had to alter how she trains.

She is now healthy and strong in the water. Hopefully keeping her healthy and training well will give us some depth in the backstroking events.”

SOPHOMORES: Cassie Weil had a tremendous freshman year as a two-time NCAA Honorable Mention All-American.

The Hillsboro, Ore. native set the LSU record in the three-meter dive and was named the SEC Freshman Diver of the Year.

“Cassie had a phenomenal freshman year, and she capped it off with a third place finish at AT&T USA Diving Championships in August,” Shaffer said. “She has the capability of reaching the finals in three events at SEC Championships and medaling in two events.

She is a favorite and contender to qualify for NCAA’s, but her goal is to get into the top eight.”

Megan Cox is an SEC Championship qualifier who looks to find her niche in the freestyle events.

“She came in last year with a lot of diversity in different events,” Geyer said. “We decided to narrow down her events primarily to freestyle. She will swim some individual medley events in dual meet season but once we get to conference, the 200 and 500 free will be her main events. Gaining experience in those three events

AMBER CARTER

throughout the season will put her into position to contribute at the SEC Championships.”

Jessie James is one of LSU’s best distance swimmers. In her freshman year, James recorded LSU’s seventh best all-time mile swim of 16:49.82 at SEC Championships.

“She had a solid freshman year, and we look to build off of it after the training she had at home,” Geyer said. “We look to really get her on track in terms of potential.”

Taryn MacKenzie looks to continue her transition from long course to short course competition. She finished 24th in the 100 breaststroke after posting LSU’s fifth-best all-time mark in prelims at SEC Championships.

“Taryn is really starting to specialize and focus on the sprint breaststroke events,” Geyer said.

“She’ll contribute on relay teams as well as the 100 and 200 breaststroke. We will look to train her to her full potential in those events.”

Danielle Stirrat owns the LSU record in the 200 backstroke. Stirrat also swam LSU’s third fastest all-time 100 back with a mark of 53.96 at SEC Championships.

“We have high expectations for her going into her sophomore year,” Geyer said. “She has a goal and the drive to not only qualify for NCAA championships but score there too. As an international student-athlete, it’s hard to adjust.

So far this year, her training has been significantly better, and we’ve adjusted to the short course format.”

Sophie Weber will make her collegiate debut after redshirting last year. Weber achieved an Olympic

KARA KOPCSO

trial cut in the 400 meter IM and is a ten-time All-American.

“This is her first season of dual meet competition for us,” Geyer said. “It’s the first time she has competed since her senior year of high school. We are excited to see where her potential can land this year for us.”

Allie Alter is a talented diver who qualified for the NCAA Zone Diving Championships through her platform score.

“She was a three-event scorer at SEC Championships,” Shaffer said. “We are looking for her to continue to develop and move up in the ranks. Allie can get into the Top 12 on platform at conference championships and qualify for NCAA Regionals. It’s important for her to increase her degree of difficulty while being successful with her scores.”

TORREY BUSSEY

a finalist at Junior Nationals in the 100 breaststroke. She was a great pickup for us with Torrey (Bussey) graduating. She gets a year to train with her and that will be a valuable experience. She will be at the forefront of our breaststroke and individual medley events on the women’s side.”

New Orleans native Angele Cherbonnier proved herself as an elite Louisiana swimmer. Cherbonnier was a seven-time individual state champion and nominated as an Isidore Newman Scholar.

FRESHMEN: Mandeville, La., native, Kara Kopcso is a seven-time individual state champion and four-time metro swimmer of the year.

“She was a great in-state talent pick up for us,” Geyer said. “She has the potential to make a huge impact for our team this year and in her career at LSU. She has the talent and drive to score at SEC and NCAA Championships all four years. She’s going to be good for our program.”

Colleen O’Neil was named a USA Swimming Scholastic All-American for the 2010-11 and 2011-12 seasons. She also competed at the 2012 Olympic Trials in the 200 individual medley.

“Colleen had a great summer before coming to campus. She was

PREVIEW

2013-14 Men’s Season Preview FRANK GREEF

Swimming coach Dave Geyer and diving coach Doug Shaffer enter their fourth season as co-head coaches.

The LSU men’s program finished sixth at the SEC Championships and improved to 26th overall at NCAA Championships last season.

The squad returns NCAA Honorable Mention All-American junior Frank Greeff. The Tigers also bring back NCAA qualifiers Sean McKinney, Michael Saco, Michael Young, and Gabe Rooker.

SENIORS: Sean McKinney set the LSU record in the three-meter springboard with a score of 415.50 at the Auburn Diving Invitational. McKinney also qualified for the NCAA Championships after a fourth place finish on the 3-meter at NCAA Zone ‘D’ Diving Regionals.

“His last year was his breakout year. It started with the school record in the 3-meter, and it continued throughout the season,” LSU diving coach Doug Shaffer said. “He was also a finalist in the SEC Championships. Sean was so close to making it to the finals at NCAA Championships, and I believe he has it in him to do it in his last year. He is using missing out on finals last year to inspire and motivate to get back to NCAA’s.”

Kevin Leong improved significantly throughout his junior campaign. Leong narrowly missed qualifying for the NCAA Championships at NCAA Zone ‘D’ Diving Regionals.

“I believe Kevin is on the brink of making a transformation into the elite,” Shaffer said. “He has always had a great deal of talent and potential. Competitive maturity is something he hasn’t mastered yet, but he has grown over the past two years. Last year he was a finalist in the 1-meter springboard at SEC Championships and NCAA Regionals. He could final at SEC’s and qualify and score at NCAA’s.”

Ricardo Alvarado Jimenez looks to continue his successful career as a Tiger.

LSU

2013-14 SWIMMING & DIVING MEDIA GUIDE

The Veracruz, Mexico, native took 13th in the 200 breaststroke and 15th in the 100 breaststroke at SEC Championships.

“He is on track this year, and he is focused,” LSU swimming coach Dave Geyer said. “We look to get him back to the levels he was at his first year. I think he can get back to that place and compete nationally for us. It’s good to see him having the drive his senior year.”

Michael Saco will fight to return to NCAA Championships in his final season.

He was a part of the 200 freestyle relay, the 400 freestyle relay and the 200 medley relay teams at NCAA’s.

“Michael has the ability to swim fast all year in those spring/freestyle events,” Geyer said. “He will be a key part to those relays that will score at SEC Championships. His goal is to qualify for NCAA Championships in the 50 freestyle.”

In his final year, Shane Coltharp will compete in backstroke and 1000 freestyle events.

“He’s finishing his senior year with a productive summer,” Geyer said. “He has some great diversity in his training and competition. He will be able to compete in a lot of different events in dual meet competition.”

JUNIORS: NCAA Honorable Mention All-American Frank Greeff owns LSU records in the 200 butterfly, 800 freestyle relay and 400 medley relay. The South Africa native also registered a seventh place swim in the 200 fly at SEC Championships.

“He is the men’s team captain,” Geyer said. “He is a great leader in the water and the team really looks up to and trains well with him. Qualifying and scoring at NCAA Championships last year was a huge step in the right direction. He has his goals set to win at the SEC level and score top eight at NCAA’s. I think Frank is going to have a big junior year and continue his sucess from last season.”

Transfers Daniel Swietlicki and Marco Gonzalez will prove depth and experience going into the 2013 season. Swietlicki was a part of two NCAA Division II national championship teams and was an individual champion in the 200 back.

Gonzalez hails from Daytona State and recently competed in the 2013 National Junior College Athletic Association Championships.

“With Marco it will be interesting to see how his career plays out,” Geyer said. “I think he has never really had to focus as much as he does now. There is a great amount of potential and it’s all about fine-tuning what he has to

2013-14 Men’s Season Preview GABE ROOKER

compete at the SEC level. We hope that Daniel can focus in and use that national level experience end spread it around to our team.”

Matthew Schaefer is the Tiger’s experienced distance swimmer who was named to the 2013 SEC Academic Honor Roll.

“He has come in and become one of our go to guys in the distance events,” Geyer said. “We will look to improve his time in those events, but he will compete really well at the conference level.”

Michael Young has proved himself his first two seasons as a Tiger.

The Sydney, Australia native qualified for NCAA Championships last season and was named to the SEC All-Freshman team his first year.

“Michael really gained a lot of experience at NCAA Championships last season,” Geyer said. “He was able to observe and see what type of talent and work ethic goes along with the upper echelon athletes in the states. He’s come back and worked really hard to get better and make it back to NCAA’s. I hope in his junior year he will take some of that experience and use it in the pool. I think he will continue to improve in the backstroke events for us.”

SOPHOMORES: Gabe Rooker highlights the sophomore class after a tremendous freshman campaign. Rooker’s time in the 100 breaststroke was the fastest in the conference. He was also a part of the 400-medley relay team that holds the LSU record.

“He had a great freshman year and got a lot of good experience a SEC and NCAA Championships,” Geyer said. “Coming into his sophomore year, we wanted to continue that development. His experience at NCAA”s is crucial to how he

KEVIN LEONG

performs this year and what he builds upon. We will obviously work on improving his times and working to qualify for NCAA’s.”

Grant Grenfell looks to return to SEC Championships after a solid freshman year. Fellow Baton Rouge, La., native Colin Finnegan looks to qualify for SEC Championships this season in the breaststroke.

“Grant had a taste and success of making SEC’s last year,” Geyer said. “Competing at the US Open should help a lot on the experience side. I hope he uses that to continue improving his times for his sophomore year. Colin is one of the hardest working men on our team.

He comes in every day looking to improve. He had a pretty successful freshman year with some best times. We look to continue that path with him.”

Last season Alex Linge ranked second on the team in the 100 freestyle and third on the team in the 100 butterfly. He also qualified for the SEC Championships.

“He came from Sweden as a top level recruit, and he has so much potential,” Geyer said. “I think we began to tap into that last year, and we hope he gained from that experience. I think down the road he will be able to contribute even more for our team in the 100 and 200 freestyle.”

FRESHMEN: The freshmen class is composed of twelve newcomers that LSU swimming coach Dave Geyer will need to make an immediate impact on the team.

Tyler Crosson comes to Baton Rouge after an impressive high school campaign. Crosson owns many different honors, including All-State, All-Conference and Scholastic All-American recognition.

“He is a great kid and has a

SEAN MCKINNEY

great work ethic,” Geyer said. “He definitely has some skills and athleticism that will show off in those sprint events. We hope to use that in the relay events too.”

One of the top prospects out of Texas, Elliot Dewlen will compete as a distance freestyler for the Tigers. Dewlen competed in the 2013 USA Swimming Junior National Championships as well as the 2012 Speedo Championship Series.

“Elliot came in early and got some training done,” Geyer said. “He is comfortable in the environment.

We need him to step into the void left by Craig (Hamilton) in those distance events. He has goals and ambitions of scoring high at SEC Championships along with qualifying for NCAA’s.”

Brandon Goldman is a 2013 World Trials and US Open Qualifier.

He also competed in the 2012 Summer Junior Nationals. At St. Thomas Aquinas, Goldman paced his team to four district championships, three regional championships and a state runner-up finish.

“He has trained phenomenally this year,” Geyer said. “There’s a lot of excitement for him and us in terms of the potential for his freshman year and career at LSU.” Devin McCaffrey rounds out the talented freshman class of swimmers. McCaffrey was a threetime All-American and four-time Florida state champion. The Trinity, Fla., native was named an NISCA Scholastic All-American and the J.W. Mitchell Heisman Award Winner.

“He will come in and have some diversity in his events to compete in the 100 breaststroke and 100 butterfly,” Geyer said. “He will also have some sprint and freestyle within him to compete in freestyle events.”

Malique Elder will provide early depth to the spring group.

PREVIEW

MICHAEL YOUNG

“Malique is a raw athlete who I think will develop really well early,” Geyer said. “He has all of the skills it takes to be sucessful and compete at the SEC level. He’ll give us some good swims indidvidually as well as on relay teams.”

Zakary Rowton is an elite diving prospect out of Texas. He was 10th in the nation in syncro as well as an All-American in 2012 and 2013.

“Zak is a newcomer and comes from an excellent club program,” Shaffer said. “He is young and inexperienced, but he has a tremendous amount of talent and potential. I think he will score on three events at SEC Championships.”

Setting the Standard for Intercollegiate Athletics in Swimming and Diving Over the past few decades, the Southeastern Conference has been a constant force in swimming and diving. In 2013, the SEC took three of the top-five spots at the NCAA women’s championships. The Georgia women won the NCAA title, its fifth national championship in program history, while Tennessee and Texas A&M finished third and fourth, respectively. Florida placed sixth to round out the top 10 finishers on the women’s side. Florida (sixth), Auburn (eighth) and Georgia (10th) had top-10 finishes in the men’s standings to further the league’s claim as the best conference in swimming and diving.

2013 marked the 44th consecutive season in which the SEC has placed at least one men’s team in the top 10. Since 1969, 115 SEC teams have finished in the NCAA’s top 10. In addition, an individual title was captured by an SEC team. The SEC now has an all-time total of 163 NCAA individual titles.

On the women’s side, five titles were captured individually to take the SEC’s total to 236 NCAA individual titles. Since 1982, the Southeastern Conference has placed 90 women’s teams in the NCAA top 10.

“When I first set foot on the LSU campus, I loved the atmosphere. The campus was beautiful, and everyone from the coaches to the professors had really impressed me. I did have hesitations before I came on my initial visit, but as soon as I got here, I realized I belonged at LSU.” “It was really quite an honor to be able to play for LSU. Being from Lockport, everybody down there is a big LSU fan. Once I graduated from high school and had to make the decision where I was going to play, LSU was the obvious choice because I had grown up an LSU fan and it was a place where my family could watch me play. LSU really helped me grow both as a player and a person. I have nothing but fond memories of the place.”

“I was basically an in-state guy and had always thought about going to LSU for football and to get a good education. I made a lot of visits to different schools in my selection process, but everything always pointed toward LSU. My heart and my family guided me in that direction not just for the athletics, but for the academics as well. From top to bottom LSU has good people from the coaches on down the line.”

“LSU is my home. It was a place where I made my name and a place where I was able to come here and have fun. It was the best three years of my life. While you are here, have fun and become a master of time management. You need to do what you have to do to make it. Work hard. I have been blessed. Baton Rouge is the place that helped me become who I am.

I will never forget this place.”

The Cox Communications Academic Center for Student-Athletes is at the forefront of today’s educational technology. Since the spring of 2009, the academic center has upgraded over 170 computers, including both PC and Mac.

Media Training

The Library

The library provides a perfect setting for individual study, or with a tutor as a group.

LSU is one of the few schools where student-athletes go through media training to enhance their communication skills. Dr. Tommy Karam and Dr. Shirley White are two experts in the field who give training sessions to student-athletes here on campus. The Academic Center features a mock press conference setting to get student-athletes acclimated to giving interviews in front of both print and electronic media. Karam and White record the mock interviews on camera and then provide feedback, allowing student-athletes to become more comfortable and confident when doing actual interviews.

Academic Center

A $15 million renovation to the Gym Armory in 2002 not only made it among the nation’s premier academic centers, but put it at the forefront. Improvements to the existing center give LSU studentathletes the best opportunity for success by providing access to the latest technology, as well as an array of expanded services.

LSU Natatorium Opened in the summer 1985, the LSU Natatorium has served as the exclusive home of the swimming and diving teams for the past 26 seasons.

The complex features a 50-meter pool, which can be converted into two 25-meter or 25-yard pools with the use of bulkheads. Furthermore, the facility houses a championship diving well, which was completely renovated in the summer 2003 with one- and three-meter springboards and five-, seven- and 10-meter platforms.

The programs added new graphics and signage throughout the venue in the fall 2011 and upgraded the scoring system in the fall 2008, unveiling a pair of state-of-the-art

videoboards. Refurbished locker rooms were also completed in September 1998. The spacious locker rooms feature separate varsity lockers, both for men and women, and include public showers and locker areas.

The facility has played host to several national competitions, including the 1985 National Sports Festival, the 1986 Men’s Southeastern Conference Championships, the 1987 NCAA Diving Regional and the U.S. Diving National Championships in the spring 1987. The Natatorium was also the host facility during the 1999 NCAA Regional Diving Championships.

Last season, the men’s team placed seventh and the women’s team

LSU

placed sixth at SEC Championships.

Both teams improved their NCAA Championship finishes. The women finished 34th while the men finished 26th.

LSU returns five women and six men who have qualified for the NCAA Championships, including NCAA All-American Honorable Mention divers Alex Bettridge, Daniel Helm and Cassie Weil as well as swimmer Frank Greeff. LSU also welcomes nine newcomers for the women and fourteen for the men.

The landmark is located immediately north of the LSU Field House and can comfortably accommodate 2,200 spectators.

LSU GREATS

The following nine individuals are the only athletes to have their jerseys retired by LSU. Men’s basketball has retired the No. 23 for Pete Maravich, No. 50 for Bob Pettit, Jr., No. 33 for Shaquille O’Neal and No. 40 for Rudy Macklin. Women’s basketball retired the No. 33 for Seimone Augustus. Football’s only two retired jerseys are the No. 20 worn by Billy Cannon and the No. 37 worn by Tommy Casanova. Baseball retired the No. 15 in honor of longtime coach and former athletics director Skip Bertman and the No. 20 for Ben McDonald. Casanova, Macklin and McDonald joined the prestigious list in May 2009. Augustus became the first woman in LSU Athletics history to have her jersey retired in January 2010.

50 Bob Pettit

23 Pete Maravich

20 Billy Cannon

33 Shaquille O’Neal

15 Skip Bertman

40 Rudy Macklin

Pettit led LSU to its first NCAA Final Four in 1953 and he later became the first player in NBA history to exceed the 20,000-plus point barrier. Pettit is a member of the NBA Hall of Fame, and in 1997, he was named as one of the top 50 players in NBA history.

O’Neal was the first pick in the 1992 NBA Draft. He was named MVP of the league in 2000 and was a three-time NBA Finals MVP after leading the Los Angeles Lakers to three World Championships. At LSU, O’Neal averaged 21.6 points and 13.6 rebounds for his career, and in 1991, he was named the World’s Amateur Athlete of the Year as well as SEC Athlete of the Year and National Player of the Year. In 1997, he was named as one of the top 50 players in NBA history.

“Pistol Pete,” Maravich still holds the NCAA record for career points with 3,667 and for career scoring average with 44.2 points a game. He was selected the National Player of the Year in 1970 after leading the Tigers to the NIT Final Four. He scored 50-plus points an amazing 28 times. He went on to a 10-year professional career and was selected as one of the NBA’s 50 greatest players in 1997.

A legend in the college baseball ranks, Bertman created a dynasty at LSU, guiding the Tigers to five national titles in a 10-year stretch from 1991-2000.

He also coached the United States to a bronze medal at the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta and was an assistant on the gold medal-winning U.S. squad in Seoul, Korea, in 1988. Bertman retired from coaching following the 2001 season and served as LSU’s athletics director for seven years. Bertman was inducted into the College Baseball Hall of Fame in 2006.

One of the true legends of college football in the South, Cannon was the 1959 Heisman Trophy winner and helped the Tigers to the 1958 national title. Cannon’s most memorable performance came in 1959 against Ole Miss when No. 1 LSU trailed No. 3 Ole Miss 3-0 in the fourth quarter. He fielded a punt, broke seven tackles and returned it 89 yards for the 7-3 victory. He went on to a successful 11-year professional career.

Rudy Macklin was a two-time basketball All-American selection during his Tiger career from 1976-81 during which time he became LSU’s all-time leading rebounder with 1,276 boards and the secondleading scorer in school history behind only the legendary Pete Maravich with 2,080 points. He led the Tigers to two Elite Eight appearances and the 1981 Final Four in Philadelphia. He still holds the school single game rebound record with 32, a mark like some of the great records in any sport that may never be broken.

2013-14 SWIMMING & DIVING MEDIA GUIDE

About LSU Retired Jerseys The retirement of the jerseys of Casanova, McDonald, Macklin and Augustus comes under a new provision of the LSU jersey retirement bylaws that says the retirement of an athlete’s jersey in a particular sport does not preclude a current student-athlete in that sport from wearing the jersey number in that or any other sport, subject to the discretion of the head coach. This provision applies only to jerseys retired after January 1, 2007, so the numbers worn by Maravich, Pettit, O’Neal, Cannon and Bertman may never again be worn by future student-athletes in their respective sports. To have a jersey retired at LSU, an athlete must have completed intercollegiate competition for LSU a minimum of five years prior to nomination. Athletes must have demonstrated truly unusual and outstanding accomplishments, exceeding and in addition to all criteria used for Hall of Fame selection.

Nominees must have a unanimous vote of support from the Hall of Fame committee.

37 Tommy Casanova

Tommy Casanova is the only three-time AllAmerican in the history of LSU football and is a member of the College Football Hall of Fame. During his Tiger career from 1969-71, Casanova personified versatility for his myriad of talents as he played offense, defense, returned punts and kickoffs. One of just two three-time All-SEC performers at LSU, he played six seasons with the Cincinnati Bengals of the NFL while earning his medical degree.

19 Ben McDonald

Ben McDonald won the prestigious Golden Spikes Award, given annually to the nation’s most outstanding player, in 1989 and is a member of the College Baseball Hall of Fame. He led LSU to two College World Series appearances. In 1989, McDonald was named National Player of the Year by Baseball America, The Sporting News and Collegiate Baseball. He was selected by the Baltimore Orioles as the No. 1 pick in the major league draft in 1989 and went on to enjoy a 10-year major league career with the Orioles and the Milwaukee Brewers.

33 Seimone Augustus

Seimone Augustus is the only women’s basketball player in school history to earn State Farm Coaches Association All-America honors three times: 2004, 2005 and 2006. Augustus became LSU’s first NCAA National Player of the Year and she claimed the honor twice in 2005 and 2006. A 2006 graduate of LSU, Augustus was the 2012 WNBA Finals MVP after winning a world title. She also led the United States to Olympic gold medals at the 2008 Beijing and 2012 London Games.

On the Prowl Mike the Tiger was recently ranked in the top three in a Bleacher Report poll of college football’s top live mascots. Mike’s habitat is one of the most visited attractions in the state of Louisiana located in the shadows of the north endzone of Tiger Stadium.

Mike THE TIGER

History of Mike

Few mascots in the country are as admired as Mike the Tiger. LSU’s live Bengal mascot serves as the graphic image of all LSU athletic teams. The school has had six mascots, with the most recent, Mike VI, taking over the reign prior to the 2007 national championship football season.

LSU veterinarian Dr. David Baker began the search for the young tiger after his predecessor, Mike V, died in May 2007 of renal failure at the age of 17. The eight-yearold Bengal/Siberian mix, formerly known as “Roscoe,” was donated to LSU by Great Cats of Indiana in Idaville, Ind., a nonprofit sanctuary and rescue facility for big cats and other large carnivores.

Mike’s ride through Tiger Stadium before home games in a travel trailer topped by the LSU cheerleaders is a school tradition. Before entering the stadium, his trailer on wheels is parked next to the opponent’s locker room in the southeast end of the stadium. Opposing players must make their way past Mike’s trailer to reach their locker room.

Tradition dictates that the Tigers will score a touchdown for every growl issued by Mike before a football game. For many years, Mike was prompted to roar by pounding on the cage. Objections of cruel punishment brought about the use of recorded growls

1936-1956 Trainer and namesake Mike Chambers with Mike I housed in City Park Zoo. to play to the crowd before the games. That practice was discontinued shortly afterward and today Mike participates in the pregame tradition without provocation.

In the mid-1980’s, pranksters cut the locks on Mike IV’s cage and freed him in the early-morning hours just days before the annual LSU-Tulane clash. Mike roamed free, playfully knocking down several small pine trees in the area, before being trapped in the Bernie Moore Track Stadium where police used tranquilizer guns to capture and return the Bengal Tiger to his home.

The incident was reminiscent of a kidnapping of Mike I many years ago by Tulane students before a Tiger-Green Wave battle.

Mike I

Prior to kickoff Mike VI and the LSU cheerleaders parade around the field of Tiger Stadium.

The original Mike was purchased from the Little Rock Zoo in 1936 for $750, with money contributed by the student body. Originally known as “Sheik” at the time of his purchase, his name was changed to Mike to honor Mike Chambers who served as LSU’s athletic trainer when the first mascot was purchased. The first Mike was housed in the Baton Rouge Zoo for one year before a permanent home was constructed near Tiger Stadium.

Mike I reigned for 20 years before dying of pneumonia.

Mike’s Habitat In 2005, a new environment (above) was created for Mike that is 15,000 square feet in size with lush planting, a large live oak tree, a beautiful waterfall and a stream evolving from a rocky backdrop overflowing with plants and trees. The habitat has, as a backdrop, an Italianate tower - a campanile - that creates a visual bridge to the Italianate architectural vernacular that is the underpinning of the image of the entire beautiful LSU campus. This spectacular habitat features state-of-the-art technologies, research, conservation and husbandry programs, as well as educational, interpretive and recreational activities. It is, in essence, one of the largest and finest Tiger habitats in the United States.

Sneaux Day On Dec. 11, 2008, a winter storm blanketed Baton Rouge that hadn’t been seen in decades.

The early white Christmas gave Mike VI, LSU’s live Bengal/Siberian tiger, a chance to relax and play in nearly two inches of accumulation.

The second Mike served a brief reign, lasting only through the 1957 season before dying of pneumonia in the spring of 1958. He was born at the Audubon Zoo in New Orleans and came to LSU on Sept. 28, 1956.

The young tiger was held overnight in Tiger Stadium and unveiled Sept.

29, the opening day of the football season.

Just in time for the 1958 national championship season, Mike III was purchased from the Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle, Wash., following a “national search” by then-athletic director Jim Corbett. The student body contributed $1,500 for the purchase of the tiger. Mike III served as mascot for 18 seasons, dying after the only losing season of his reign, as LSU posted a 5-6 record in 1975.

Mike IV reigned over Tiger athletics for 14 years after being donated to the school by August A. Busch III from the Dark Continent Amusement Park in Tampa, Fla, on Aug. 29, 1976. Born on May 15, 1974, Mike’s age and health were determining factors in his retirement to the Baton Rouge Zoo in 1990. Mike IV died of old age in March of 1995 at the age of 21.

Mike V was donated by Dr. Thomas and Caroline Atchison of the Animal House Zoological Park in Moulton, Ala. Dr. Sheldon Bivin of the LSU School of Veterinary Medicine traveled to Alabama and brought the baby tiger back to Baton Rouge.

Born Oct. 18, 1989, the new tiger was introduced to LSU fans at a basketball game against Alabama in February of 1990. He officially began his reign on April 30, 1990, when he was moved into the tiger habitat across from Tiger Stadium.

Mike V died on May 18, 2007, at the age of 17.

Mike VI arrived in Baton Rouge on Aug. 25, 2007, thanks to the donation by Great Cats of Indiana.

He was officially designated as the successor to Mike V on Sept. 8, when LSU played host to Virginia Tech. Six days later, on Sept. 14, 2007, a ceremony was held to honor Mike V and dedicate the habitat to Mike VI. The eight-year-old Bengal/ Siberian mix, formerly known as “Roscoe,” reigned over a football national title in his first year and most recently, a 2011 Southeastern Conference championship and perfect regular season.

Alleva joined the LSU family on April 4, 2008 after a highly successful tenure as director of athletics at Duke University for 10 years. Alleva’s role at LSU was further expanded in August of 2009 when vice chancellor was added to his title by the LSU Board of Supervisors. It is the first time in school history that the director of athletics has also held a vice chancellor position.

Alleva is currently serving a fiveyear term on the prestigious NCAA Men’s Basketball Committee, reinforcing his position as one of the most respected athletic administrators in the country.

Upon his arrival at LSU, Alleva unveiled a strategic master plan for the LSU athletics program -- “LSU: Thru and True” -- to ensure the advancement and future of LSU Athletics as an exemplary program. The central mission of the plan is to create an environment for student-athletes to reach their ultimate potential, prepare them to be champions in life and to set out goals and values for the entire athletics program.

Alleva’s vision will keep LSU among the nation’s leaders in athletic facilities.

He launched an aggressive fund-raising campaign to replace several hundred windows in Tiger Stadium that were in disrepair, and a new coating to the facade of the structure has given the old stadium new life. A renovated gating system on the west side of the stadium debuted in the fall of 2012 to include a plaza that celebrates LSU’s football national championships and recognition walls that honor Tiger All-Americans. A new plaza will open on the north end of the stadium in the fall of 2013, further enriching the experience of visitors to the LSU campus.

A new lighting system was installed prior to last season that turns the upper archways of the north end of the stadium purple and gold and lights the iconic “LSU” on the stadium’s north scoreboard. In addition, “Tiger Stadium” in 10-foot tall illuminated letters sits just below the west upper deck facing Nicholson Drive.

Also in the fall of 2012, LSU began construction on an expansion of the South End Zone of the stadium -- a project that will add premium seating, general public seating and two stateof-the-art video boards -- continuing an effort to augment one of the most iconic venues in all of college sports. The project will be completed in time for the start of the 2014 football season.

Under Alleva’s direction, LSU’s world-renowned track and field program received a state-of the-art running surface in 2010 when a new track was installed in Bernie Moore Stadium and extensive renovations to the Tiger soccer facility were completed in the fall of 2011.

Alleva directed a major renovation to the University Club golf course that was completed in September 2010 and allows the LSU men’s and women’s golf teams to compete on one of the most challenging courses in the country. The renovated course helped prepare Tiger

golfers John Peterson and Austin Ernst, respectively, to win 2011 NCAA men’s and women’s individual championships, marking the first time both titles were claimed by players from the same school. The LSU men’s team in 2013 played host to an NCAA Regional for the first time in the school’s illustrious golf history.

Future plans include a new gymnastics practice facility, a new tennis complex featuring indoor and outdoor courts, and a state-of-the-art Nutrition Center for Student-Athletes, a facility that will house full-time chefs and nutritionists and provide the best dietary selections for all Fighting Tiger competitors.

LSU’s prominence was evident in the final 2012-13 Learfield Sports Director’s Cup standings that recognize the nation’s best athletic programs, as the Tigers finished in the Top 20 for the eighth consecutive year.

The year was highlighted by another 10-win season and bowl appearance for the Fighting Tiger football team, which recorded a double-digit victory total for the sixth time in eight years. The men’s basketball program was rejuvenated by first-year coach Johnny Jones, who directed the Tigers to a 19-12 mark while placing LSU back into consideration for a postseason berth. Women’s basketball continued its rise under second-year coach Nikki Caldwell, who guided the Lady Tigers to LSU’s first Sweet 16 berth in five years.

The 2013 Fighting Tiger baseball team established a school record for victories with 57 and earned the school’s 16th College World Series appearance while capturing SEC Western Division and SEC Tournament titles. The softball squad won the SEC West and played host to an NCAA Regional in Tiger Park before record crowds. The LSU gymnastics team reached the prestigious Super Six for the third time in six seasons, and the women’s track team, led by Bowerman Award winner and national sprint champion Kimberlyn Duncan, placed fourth in the final NCAA outdoor standings.

But the 2012-13 year was about more than just athletic success. Living up to Alleva’s mantra of “competition, classroom, community,” LSU studentathletes logged more than 4,475 hours in community service work across 20 sports through LSU’s Geaux Givers program. And a total of 89 proud Tigers received their degrees from the university during LSU commencement ceremonies in December and May. The Tigers in 2011-12 finished fourth in both the men’s and women’s Capital

2013-14 SWIMMING & DIVING MEDIA GUIDE

One Cup competition that identifies athletic excellence. LSU was one of only two schools in the country – and the only one in the SEC -- to rank in the top four in both categories.

Eighteen of the Tigers’ 20 varsity sports participated in NCAA postseason competition in 2011-12. The year was highlighted by the football team’s undefeated regular season, an SEC championship and an appearance in the BCS National Championship Game. The Lady Tiger track and field team captured the SEC championship while the LSU softball squad advanced to the Women’s College World Series. The Fighting Tiger baseball team won the 2012 SEC championship, and LSU led the nation in attendance for the 17th straight season.

The 2011-12 season marked the first time in school history that LSU won both the SEC title in both football and baseball in the same athletic year.

Outstanding performances of the 2010-11 athletic season included the exploits of the Fighting Tiger football squad that posted an 11-2 mark – including a Cotton Bowl victory – and finished the season ranked No. 8 in the nation. The year also featured Top 5 national finishes both indoors and outdoors by the men’s and women’s track and field teams.

In 2008-09, all 20 LSU sports competed in NCAA postseason play for the first time in school history and the Tiger baseball team won the national championship. LSU ranked second among Southeastern Conference teams in the Learfield Director’s Cup All-Sports standings and finished in the Top 20 for the sixth year in a row.

With a strong commitment to academics, Alleva ensures that the Cox Communications Academic Center for Student-Athletes is a first-class facility that provides student-athletes the resources necessary for success in the classroom and personal development.

The facility was recently enhanced by the addition of a media training center that gives student-athletes valuable assistance in improving their communications skills.

And with a strong emphasis on community service and outreach programs, the implementation under Alleva’s direction of the “Geaux Givers” program fosters a relationship between the local community and LSU studentathletes, who regularly participate in philanthropic events. In addition, Alleva has bolstered the department’s L-Club program to reach out and connect with former student-athletes.

Alleva oversees a staff of outstanding coaches and he has made

critical additions to LSU’s coaching staff in recent years. He hired former LSU guard Johnny Jones in April 2012 to breathe new life and enthusiasm into the men’s basketball program and last year added Julia Sell as the new women’s tennis coach. In 2011, he lured the dynamic Nikki Caldwell to LSU to coach the Lady Tiger basketball team and then hired Beth Torina to direct the Tiger softball program, both of whom immediately returned their respective programs to NCAA postseason success.

Alleva is an innovator with bold ideas that benefit not only LSU but all of Greater Baton Rouge. He has been instrumental in the planning of the Bayou Country Superfest, a two-day country music concert and festival held in Tiger Stadium each spring. The event attracts nearly 100,000 visitors to the LSU campus and makes a tremendous economic impact upon the local community.

Alleva has served on numerous national committees throughout his career including the Football Bowl Certification Committee, the NCAA Division I Championships/Competition Cabinet and several Southeastern Conference and Atlantic Coast Conference committees.

He became director of athletics at Duke in 1998 and his impressive tenure there propelled the university into the ranks of America’s top allaround collegiate programs. Among his outstanding list of accomplishments includes the greatest 10-year period in Duke Athletics, winning more ACC and NCAA championships than in any other decade in school history.

Alleva, whose hometown is Suffern, N.Y., majored in Finance at Lehigh University and received his bachelor’s degree in 1975. While at Lehigh, Alleva was the quarterback of the football team and team captain in 1974. Alleva also played on the Lehigh baseball team.

He served as a graduate assistant football coach and earned an MBA in 1976.

While at Duke, Alleva played a key role in Durham’s community sports scene. He started Little League Baseball in Durham over 20 years ago, and also began the American Legion baseball program.

He is a member of the North Carolina American Legion Hall of Fame, Suffern High School Hall of Fame and the Rockland County Hall of Fame.

Alleva and his wife, Annie, have three children, J.D., Jeff, and Jenny. Joe and Annie recently welcomed their first grandchild, Harper, the daughter of Jenny and husband Kyle Young.

COACHES

Co-Head Coach David Geyer

DAVID GEYER Co-Head Coach Head Swimming Coach Fourth Season as Co-Head Coach (Eighth at LSU)

When Dave Geyer was promoted to co-head coach of the LSU men’s and women’s swimming and diving programs alongside Doug Shaffer in April 2010, he envisioned a pair of teams that could consistently compete among the top 15 in the nation and top five in the Southeastern Conference.

After a three-year run that has seen the men’s team break 10 individual and two relay records and the women’s team break 12 individual and three relay records, Geyer, entering his fourth season as head swimming coach, has put the men’s and women’s swimming teams on the map, both nationally and in the SEC. In addition to the success in the pool, Geyer and Shaffer’s program has excelled in the classroom, as witnessed by 22 student-athletes being named to the 2013 SEC Winter Academic Honor Roll.

During the 2012-13 season, both programs enjoyed postseason success. The men’s program broke eight team records and the women’s team broke two team records.

The LSU men’s team sent seven swimmers and one diver based on four individual qualifiers and a pair of NCAA ‘A’ cuts in relays to the 2013 NCAA Championships. The eight competitors represented the largest LSU contingent with Geyer and Shaffer at the helm. Seniors Craig Hamilton and Andrei Tuomola, junior diver Sean McKinney and sophomore Frank Greeff qualified for the meet individually. The individual qualifiers were joined by senior Nick Kunkel, junior Michael Saco, sophomore Michael Young and freshman Gabe Rooker on all five relays.

At the NCAA Championships, all three individual qualifying swimmers scored points at the meet and guided LSU to a 26th place finish with 24 team points overall. The 26th place finish marked the second top-26 finish in the past three seasons.

Hamilton picked up LSU’s first NCAA First-Team All-American honor since 2007. Hamilton finished seventh in the 1650 freestyle with a season low swim of 14:49.12 and scored 12 team points. Over the course of his career at LSU, Hamilton swam the 10 fastest mile times in LSU history and leaves LSU with four program records, including a mile time of 14:45.94. The Edingburgh, Scotland native steadily improved in the event each year, beginning with a last place finish at NCAA’s his freshman year and ending with three straight top-16 finishes.

Tuomola arrived at LSU with his eyes set on capturing three individual long standing records and left the Tigers as a record holder in three individual events and two relay events. After a quartet of NCAA Honorable Mention All-American honors his freshman season, Tuomola earned a pair of individual All-American awards with top-16 finishes in the 50 free and the 100 breaststroke. In the process, Tuomola shattered LSU’s 25 year-old 50 free record with a time of 19.57, broke LSU’s 16 year-old 100 breast record with a time of 52.76 and tied LSU’s 25 year-old record in the 100 free with a time of 43.22.

Greeff enters his third year as the most decorated returning men’s swimmer after setting LSU’s 200 butterfly record and swimming on a pair of team record relays. The sophomore earned his first career NCAA Honorable Mention All-American honor and became LSU’s third AllAmerican in the 200 fly with a time of 1:44.06, which placed him 12th.

On the women’s side, junior Torrey Bussey and freshman diver Cassie Weil qualified for the NCAA Championships individually. Bussey was joined on the 200 medley relay by junior Rainey White, sophomore Amber Cater and freshman Caley Oquist.

After returning from an offseason injury, Bussey qualified for her third consecutive national championships. The Cary, N.C., native placed 21st in the 100 breaststroke (1:00.45) at the NCAA Championships, which marked her highest finish in the event at the national meet.

men’s team finished in sixth place with a team total of 753.5 points.

The women’s team came in seventh with a composite score of 494. The men’s team picked up NCAA ‘A’ cuts in the 400 medley relay (3:10.42) and the 800 free relay (6:25.67) and the women’s team picked up a NCAA ‘A’ cut in the 200 medley relay (1:37.80). The men’s team broke seven records at the meet (two of which were broken again at NCAA’s) and the women’s team broke one record. Rooker and Weil were both named to the SEC All-Freshman team.

The NCAA automatic relay teams consisted of Oqusit, Bussey, White and Carter in the 200 medley relay, Young, Rooker, Greef and Tuomola in the 400 medley relay and Greeff, Hamilton, sophomore Dillon Love and Kunke in the 800 free relay.

At SEC’s, Tuomola (100 breast) and junior diver Daniel Helm (onemeter springboard) captured a pair of bronze medals for LSU. Tuomola nailed a fifth place swim in the 50 free with a time of 19.76, which was his highest SEC finish in the event. He also took eighth in the 100 free.

Hamilton took fourth in the mile with a time of 14:53.10 and finished sixth in the 500 free with a time 4:19.57.

Freshman Danielle Stirrat picked up LSU’s 200 back record with an NCAA ‘B’ cut time of 1:55.21 and touched second in the ‘C’ final. The rookie also picked up LSU’s third fastest all-time 200 free time of 1:47.12 in a third place finish in the ‘C’ final.

Bussey achieved LSU’s second fastest ever 100 breast time of 1:00.30 and took second in the consolation final. Bussey finished sixth in the consolation final of the 200 IM with a time of 1:59.67.

Kunkel posted LSU’s record in the 200 back (1:43.81) in the prelims, and proceeded to win the consolation final with a mark of 1:44.28.

Greeff registered a seventh place swim in the 200 fly (1:44.58) and swam a strong 100 fly time of 47.16, which was the program’s third best all-time mark. Greeff also swam LSU’s third best all-time 200 free (1:36.48) in a leadoff split on the 800 free relay.

Young clocked his 200 back in 1:45.64 and moved up to fifth in the program’s all-time record book during the prelims. Young barley missed his top time with a 1:45.65 in the ‘B’ final. Love registered LSU’s sixth best all-time 200 back of 1:45.67, which was an NCAA ‘B’ cut, and finished third in the ‘C’ final.

Senior Sara Haley, LSU’s record holder in the 200 fly, touched the wall first in the ‘C’ final of the 200 fly with a mark of 1:57.98.

The 2010-11 and 2011-12 LSU men’s team finished the SEC Championships in the top-five in consecutive seasons for the first time since the 1998-99 and 1999-00 campaigns. Similarly, the 2010-11 and 2011-12 women’s team enjoyed the finest two-year run within the conference since the 1992-93 and 1993-94 seasons.

In 2011-12, seven women, including six underclassmen, and two men qualified for the national meet. The team collectively broke six records.

Eight LSU swimmers and two newcomers competed at the 2012 US Olympic Trials in Omaha, Neb. In 2010-11 the LSU women’s team delivered its highest NCAA finish in 18 seasons, registering 14th at the 2011 NCAA Championships. Eight swimmers earned invitations to the national meet -- LSU’s highest qualifying contingent in more than 15 years -- and five athletes combined to claim 14 All-America honors.

In 2010-11, Jane Trepp became the first swimmer in program history to capture NCAA first-team All-America status in all three of her individual races in a single season with top-eight finishes in the 50 free,

Co-Head Coach David Geyer 100 fly and 100 breast. Amanda Kendall joined her teammate Trepp as a first-team All-American in the 100 fly, won the consolation final of the 100 free and also posted a top-16 finish in the 50 free.

Prior to the accomplishments of Trepp and Kendall at NCAA’s, the LSU women’s program had not seen an individual swimming All-American since 1997, and both boasted top times ranked in the top 10 nationally in their three best races by the end of the season.

Under Geyer’s guidance, Kendall exploded on the International scene after her performances at the 2011 ConocoPhillips US Nationals and the 2011 Pan American Games.

Kendall achieved three Pan Am Games records in the 4x100-meter free (3:40.66), 4x200-meter free (8:01.18) and 4x100-meter medley (4:01.00) relay. She also earned a gold medal in the 100 free with a lifetime best of 54.75. Her 100 free mark was the seventh fastest time in the 100 free by an American in the 2011 cycle.

Kendall qualified for the Pan Am Games after setting four lifetime bests and placing in four finals at the 2011 National Championships.

She made the ‘A’ Final and finished seventh overall with a time of 55.08 in the 100m free and competed in the consolation finals of the 50m free (25.84), 100m butterfly (1:00.00) and 200m free (2:00.14).

On the men’s side, Hannes Heyl and Hamilton gave the Tigers a 26th-place finish at NCAA’s, their highest finish since 2005.

Heyl proved to be one of the top 100 butterfly performers in the country, racing to a new program record of 45.77 in the NCAA prelims before collecting his first career first-team All-America accolade with a seventh-place finish in the championship final. Hamilton took 15th and aquired his first career honorable mention All-America honor in the 1650 free.

In addition to their success at NCAA’s, the men’s and women’s teams burst onto the scene and turned some heads both nationally and in the conference with their stellar performances at the 2011 SEC Championships. The Lady Tigers and Tigers each placed fifth at SEC’s, marking the first time both teams posted top-five finishes at the conference championships in a single season since 2000.

However, the squads stood out way beyond the team standings with a plethora of individual and relay accolades. At the conclusion of the four-day swimming competition, LSU swimmers combined to win an SEC individual championship, collect 14 medals and shatter an SEC record and 12 program marks, while four athletes earned All-SEC recognition and two made the SEC All-Freshmen team.

No swimmer had a bigger impact than Trepp, who became the first Lady Tiger swimmer in 14 seasons to win an SEC title, and she did it in record-setting fashion, breaking the league mark with a blistering time of 58.94. The senior was just the ninth individual in U.S. Open history to reach the wall in under 59 seconds.

Kendall raced to a pair of bronze medals in the 100 free and 100 fly and played a major role in helping the 200 medley and 200 free relays to medal finishes. Her 22.87 split on the fly leg of the 200 medley relay coupled with Trepp’s 26.57 breaststroke split spearheaded the squad of Ruimerman, Trepp, Kendall and Goates to second-place and an NCAA automatic qualifying time of 1:36.91.

Haley was the bronze medal winner in the 200 fly with a then program-record 1:56.82 clocking. Haley went from 18th in the event as a freshman to third in the league in just one season under Geyer’s tutelage.

Bussey, an SEC All-Freshmen Team performer and NCAA Qualifier, advanced to a pair of championship finals at the conference meet and broke program records in the 200 breast and 200 IM. Bussey was the Lady Tigers’ highest NCAA finisher in the 200 IM since 1997 and first swimmer to race in the 200 breast at the national competition since 2003.

Heyl swam to a bronze medal in the 100 fly and reached the ‘A’ final of the 100 back with a personal best of 47.15, while Hamilton claimed his third program record at the conference meet with a 4:22.17 clocking in the 500 free.

Tuomola also took a step forward in his second season, qualifying for the championship final of the 50 free and 100 breast at SEC’s and recording a new personal best and program top-10 time in the 50 free.

Furthermore, Trepp was named LSU’s most decorated scholar-athlete as she was the school’s female nomination for the prestigious SEC H. Boyd McWhorter Postgraduate Scholarship, the highest academic honor bestowed by the conference each year. In addition to her phenomenal athletic accomplishments, the senior also sported a 3.8 cumulative grade point average in psychology.

Prior to his promotion to co-head coach, Geyer spent five seasons as an assistant coach at LSU where he worked with all phases of the programs. He was instrumental in helping numerous athletes shatter program records and earn All-America honors while also playing a vital role in the recruitment of top-level international student-athletes.

In 2008, Geyer trained former LSU standout and Olympian Miko Malberg prior to the Beijing Olympic Games where the former All-

He also traveled to Croatia for the 2008 European Short-Course Championships as a member of the Estonian National coaching staff where he guided Malberg to a pair of national records and helped an Estonian relay qualify for its first championship final at that competition.

Geyer graduated from Shippensburg with a bachelor’s degree in psychology in 1999 before receiving his master’s degree in counseling in 2001. He is married to the former Lyndi Croft of State College, Pa. The couple has two daughters, Maddilyn (8) and Kayda (4).

Co-Head Coach Doug Shaffer

DOUG SHAFFER Co-Head Coach Head Diving Coach Fourth Season as Co-Head Coach (12th at LSU)

The LSU diving program is one of storied tradition, and no one has had a more profound impact in the Tigers’ recent success than Doug Shaffer.

Entering his 12th overall season with LSU, Shaffer was promoted to co-head coach of the men’s and women’s swimming and diving programs along with Dave Geyer in April 2010 and enters his fourth season as head diving coach.

After three seasons, Shaffer and Geyer have LSU on the path to becoming one of the nation’s elite programs. During the 2012-13 season, both programs enjoyed postseason success with one female diver and one male diver qualifying for the NCAA Championships. In addition, all seven divers scored points at the SEC Championships in every event they competed in.

Known for having an eye for talent, Shaffer scours the country for gifted divers who fit the program and molds them into some of LSU’s most successful student-athletes. In his previous 11 years, Shaffer has produced 14 NCAA All-Americans, two Southeastern Conference champions, an SEC Diver of the Year and seven SEC Freshman Divers of the Year.

Freshman Cassie Weil showed that her time as a Tiger was going to be a success after setting LSU’s three-meter record (372.68) in her first collegiate dual. Weil excelled in her first collegiate season, picking up a pair of NCAA Honorable Mention All-American honors and scoring 11 team points at the NCAA Championships. At NCAA’s, the Hillsboro, Ore., native dove to 11th on the three-meter with a total of 337.50 and to 12th on the platform with a score of 287.15.

Weil qualified for NCAA’s on the three-meter at the NCAA Zone ‘D’ Diving Regional with a 12-line total of 662.70, including a six-line final round total of 345.80. At Zone’s, she posted LSU’s second best all-time platform score of 299.10. She was named Shaffer’s seventh SEC Freshman Diver of the Year after finishing in the top-eight in two events (fifth on the three-meter and sixth on the platform) at the conference championships and named to the SEC All Freshman Team.

Junior Sean McKinney showed the potential in his third season that Shaffer had been praising since the moment McKinney stepped on campus. The Springfield, Va., native set the LSU all-time threemeter record with a score of 415.50 and qualified for his first career NCAA Championships. At the NCAA Zone ‘D’ Diving Regionals, McKinney qualified for the NCAA Championships with a fourth place finish on the three-meter with a 12-line total of 769.95, including his second career best three-meter score of 393.60 in the final round.

At the SEC Championships, McKinney placed fourth on the three-meter with a score of 391.40. Over the course of the season, McKinney set his career bests on all three boards. During the NCAA Championships, McKinney finished in the top-18 on the three-meter and the platform.

Junior diver Daniel Helm put together a fine SEC Championships and captured the bronze medal on the one-meter with a season best score of 372.10. The Beaverton, Ore., native took fifth on the platform with a score of 352.90 after totaling 360.45 in prelims. During the season, Helm totaled his career best on the platform with LSU’s alltime second best score of 369.90 at the Phil Hansel Invite.

The Edmonton, Alberta, Canada native made his first career SEC Championship final on the one-meter and finished in eighth with a final round score of 310.15 after registering a prelim round score of 314.15.

Senior Elle Schmidt put together her best year with career best finishes at the SEC Championships. Schmidt finished 10th on the onemeter (282.75) and 11th on the platform (243.10) at the conference championships. Freshman Allie Alter added depth by scoring on all three boards at SEC’s.

In 2012, Bettridge and Helm added their names to the prominent divers that have come through LSU. Both divers became NCAA Honorable-Mention All-Americans after scoring points at the NCAA Championships.

Helm became LSU’s 13th NCAA All-American on the platform after diving to a 12th place finish with a total of 324.50 at NCAA’s. The Beaverton, Ore. native showed his diversity in different events after capturing a silver medal at the SEC Championships on the one-meter springboard with the program’s second highest all-time score of 376.55. His performance earned him All-SEC Second Team honors.

Bettridge became Shaffer’s sixth SEC Freshman Diver of the Year and was named to the SEC All-Freshman Team. She set the program’s three-meter dive record (366.85) with a bronze medal performance at the SEC Championships. She also dove to sixth in the one-meter with a total of 302.60 at SEC’s, which is the seventh best in the program’s history.

Bettridge placed 15th on the three-meter with a score of 306.30 at the NCAA Championships, earning NCAA Honorable Mention All American honors. The Austin, Texas native qualified for the NCAA Championships after scoring a 12-dive total of 578.20 in a fourth place finish on the one-meter at the NCAA Zone ‘D’ Diving Regionals.

During the 2011-12 campaign, any LSU diver had a chance at earning victory in every event. All six divers qualified for the NCAA Zone ‘D’ Diving Regional.

Senior Matt Vieke finished up his illustrious career with his best collegiate season. Following his senior season, Vieke possessed the program’s third best three-meter (388.20), fifth best one-meter (352.60) and fourth best platform (314.75) scores. He secured his first championship final at SEC Championships and posted a fifth place performance on the one-meter (352.60).

Moreover, Shaffer’s divers continue to shine academically as his athletes have been awarded LSU Scholar-Athlete of the Year honors four times, and numerous divers have received prestigious post-graduate scholarships. Vieke was named the Tiger Athletic Foundation Male Scholar-Athlete of the Year and a recipient of the Wally Pontiff Jr., Academic Excellence Award during his junior season.

The Indianapolis, Ind. native was named a finalist for the prestigious SEC H. Boyd McWorther Post-Graduate Scholarship his senior year and graduated with a perfect 4.0 cumulative grade point average in management.

The LSU diving corps embarked upon another successful season in 2010-11, helping both the men’s and women’s teams register topfive finishes at the SEC Championships for the first time since 2000.

Furthermore, all six divers -- including four underclassmen -qualified and competed at the NCAA Zone Diving Regional, while Helm developed into one of the conference’s top newcomers.

After a fine first-year campaign in which she garnered SEC Freshman Diver of the Year honors, St. Germain took her craft to another level, capturing a silver medal and breaking the program record in the one-meter springboard with a phenomenal performance at SEC’s.

Vieke, McKinney and Schmidt also tallied career-best and program top-10 scores at different points in the season.

Prior to his promotion, Shaffer served eight seasons as LSU’s diving coach where he maintained the program’s tradition of excellence.

In 2009-10, St. Germain became the fifth LSU diver in six seasons to emerge as the SEC Freshman Diver of the Year and was named to the SEC All-Freshmen Team, while Gemberling proved to be one of the most improved divers in the SEC in his sophomore campaign.

In 2008-09, the Tigers’ diving coach helped one of his athletes earn an invitation to the NCAA Championships for the seventhconsecutive season as senior Niko Dalman competed at the national meet for the third time in his career. Dalman also added the school’s one-meter record to his collection and finished his career as the LSU record-holder in both the one- and three-meter springboard events.

The 2007-08 season proved to be Shaffer’s finest season as the Tigers’ diving coach. Shaffer coached sophomore Rachel Ware to her third All-America accolade in two years with a 12th-place finish in the one-meter springboard at NCAA’s. His athletes also had a superb showing at SEC’s as a conference-high four LSU divers received medals for placing in the top three of their respective events.

Ware and senior Paige Brown enjoyed two of the best competitions of their careers at that meet with both departing Tuscaloosa, Ala., as conference champions. Ware won the one-meter championship and captured the runner-up spot in the three-meter en route to SEC Female Diver of the Year honors. Brown beat out 20 other competitors to take the platform title with a school-record score of 300.30.

Both were also named to the All-SEC First Team, the first Lady Tigers to receive all-conference recognition since 2003. Shaffer earned the SEC Women’s Diving Coach of the Year award for his efforts in guiding the duo to conference excellence.

Under Shaffer’s tutelage, the men’s side finished second in the points standings among diving teams at the conference meet, and a pair of Tiger divers reached the awards podium with record-shattering performances. Dalman took home a medal in the three-meter springboard, breaking a then-LSU record in the event with a score of 391.55 to place third. Freshman Michael Neubacher followed two days later with a runner-up finish in the platform competition, crushing the school record with a robust six-dive total of 431.55.

Outside the pool, Brown truly exemplified the meaning of a studentathlete, joining a long list of former LSU divers who have excelled at the highest levels academically. The Zionsville, Ind., native, who graduated Summa Cum Laude with a degree in biological engineering, became the third LSU diver in two seasons to be named a finalist for the esteemed SEC H. Boyd McWhorter Post-graduate Scholarship. Former standouts Hali Saucier and Andrew Keane were nominated in 2007.

She was also the first athlete in school history to earn a spot in the exclusive Tiger Twelve, which recognizes 12 graduating seniors who have shown great academic success and contributed significantly to the Baton Rouge community, and received the Wally Pontiff Jr. Academic Excellence Award, which goes to the school’s top scholarathletes. In addition, Brown registered the team’s highest grade point average and was selected to give the commencement speech at the engineering school’s graduation in 2008.

Shaffer’s list of Tiger All-Americans began in 2002-03 upon his arrival. His guidance enabled three divers to earn five NCAA AllAmerican performances, including junior Jessica Wantz and seniors Barb Gorst and Kyle VanArsdall. Wantz finished fourth in the threemeter springboard. Both Gorst and VanArsdall scored in the top-16 in the platform.

The following season Shaffer guided Wantz to a third-place finish overall in the three-meter at NCAA’s, which gave her first-team AllAmerica honors. A third career All-America finish followed in the onemeter.

In 2004-05, Dalman entered his freshman season with little experience. Seven months later, he embarked on a 12th-place finish as an All-American in the one-meter. He also became the first diver in school history to be named SEC Freshman Diver of the Year. Dalman added to his accolades with a top-12 finish in the platform at the 2006 NCAA Championships.

Shaffer was no stranger to leading a successful collegiate diving program before taking the job in Baton Rouge. He was the head coach at UCLA in 1988-89 and then at the University of Minnesota from 198996.

He has coached the United States in numerous international competitions since 1989, including the U.S. National Diving teams in China, Sweden, Spain and the United States. Shaffer served as the assistant competition manager during the 1996 Olympic Games in

CHRIS IP Assistant Coach • Second Season College- East Stroudsburg State; B.S. in Biology, 1978; Springfield College, M.S. in Exercise Psychology, 1984 Hometown: Swarthmore, Penn.

Born: Sept. 9, 1956 Wife: Dr. Loreto Jackson

Christopher Ip enters his second year with LSU as an assistant coach after serving as the head swimming and diving coach at Clemson for 10 seasons. Ip was instrumental in helping LSU qualify eight student-athletes to the Men’s NCAA Championships and five student-athletes to the Women’s NCAA Championships.

Ip also assisted in LSU shattering seven men’s swimming records and one women’s swimming record during the 2012-13 campaign.

Under Ip’s watch, five of the swimmers he worked closely with qualified for the NCAA Championships. The most notable of the bunch, senior Andrei Tuomola, broke three individual records and one relay record during the championship portion of the season.

At NCAA’s, Tuomola earned a pair of individual All-American awards with top-16 finishes in the 50 free and the 100 breaststroke. At SEC’s, Tuomola captured the bronze medal in the 100 breast and finished in the top-eight in both sprint events. In the process, Tuomola shattered LSU’s 25 year-old 50 free record with a time of 19.57, broke LSU’s 16 year-old 100 breast record with a time of 52.76 and tied LSU’s 25 year-old record in the 100 free with a time of 43.22.

Paired with Tuomola on the team record setting 400 medley relay, sophomore Michael Young evolved into one of the conference’s top 100 fly, 200 fly and 100 backstroke competitors. At SEC’s, Young clocked his 200 back in 1:45.64 and moved up to fifth in the program’s all-time record book during the prelims. Young ranks fourth in the program’s record books after swimming the 100 back in a time of 47.64 at the conference meet.

Along with Tuomola and Young, junior Michael Saco also punched a ticket to NCAA’s and swam on both frees relays and on the 200 medley relay. At SEC’s, Saco raced to 13th in the 50 free with a time of 20.07 after swimming a season low 19.97 in prelims at the SEC Championships. Saco also swam his career low in the 100 free (44.76) at the meet.

Ip also played a key role in the development of sophomore Amber Carter and junior Rainey White in the 50 free, 100 and 100 fly. The duo earned a ticket to the NCAA Championships with an NCAA ‘A’ cut in the 200 medley relay (1:37.80) at SEC’s. White swam the fly leg and Carter anchored the relay.

At the conference championships, Carter finished 15th in the 50 free with a time of 22.71 after swimming LSU’s fifth best all-time 50 free of 22.58 in the prelims During his tenure at Clemson, Ip produced 16 NCAA AllAmerican and Honorable Mention All-American performers, 24 ACC Champions and 35 All-ACC swimmers. Seventeen out of 24 of the men’s and women’s records for each team were broken under his direction. Fourteen of his athletes became Olympic trial participants, domestically and internationally.

Ip was honored as a 2012 ASCA Coach of Excellence award winner for pllacing a swimmer top-eight at the 2012 NCAA Championships.

In addition to in the pool excellence, Ip’s teams consistently boasted high academic marks and did extensive work in the community. His men and women’s teams averaged a cumulative GPA of 3.0 in 29 separate semesters of classes. Three of Ip’s athletes went on to earn the prestigious NCAA Post-graduate scholarship.

Ip served as the President and Coach of the Clemson Tiger Aquatic Camps, Inc. from 2005-2011.

Ip also has considerable international coaching experience. He served as head coach of the Jamaican National Swim Team for the 1994 World Games in Rome, Italy.

Fuccillo played a key role in guiding junior Torrey Bussey to her third consecutive NCAA Championships. Bussey placed 21st in the 100 breaststroke (1:00.45), which marked her highest finish in the event at the national meet. At the SEC Championships, Bussey touched the wall in a lifetime best 100 breast of 1:00.30 in a 10th place finish, which also marked LSU’s second fastest all-time swim in the event.

Fuccillo also contributed to the early production from freshmen Gabe Rooker and Caley Oquist. Rooker competed on the 400 medley relay and the 800 freestyle relay at the NCAA Championships. Rooker raced the breast leg on LSU’s program record 400 medley relay (3:10.42) at the SEC Championships.

In individual competition, Rooker was named to the SEC AllFreshman Team after finishing as the highest ranked freshman in the 100 breast at the SEC Championships. Rooker posted a 12th place swim in a time of 53.85, which placed him fourth in the program’s

record books. Also at the conference meet, Rooker notched the Tigers’ seventh best all-time 200 breast of 1:58.53 in prelims and finished the race in 15th with a time of 1:58.76.

Oquist led off LSU’s NCAA automatic qualifying 200 medley relay with a split of 24.86 at the SEC Championships and competed in her first NCAA Championships her freshman year. In individual competition at SEC’s, Oquist registered LSU’s fourth best all-time 100 backstroke mark of 54.31 in prelims and finished 23rd with a mark of 54.43.

At NAU, Fuccillo’s swimmers posted 14 NCAA ‘B’ cuts and broke 14 school records. In addition, 28 program all-time top-five swims were registered.

Fuccillo was a four-year letterwinner at UCLA. She helped lead the Bruins to a pair of second-place finishes in the Pac-12 Conference during her career. She was a three-time top-eight finisher at the Pac12 Championships and served as team captain her senior season.

Fuccillo, a native of St. Louis, Mo., earned her undergraduate degree in sociology in 2007. She completed her master’s degree in educational psychology and human relations at NAU in December 2009. Fuccillo is engaged to be married to Andrew Kempe in Sept.
