2012 TEXAS TECH VOLLEYBALL RED RAIDERS IN SEASON OPENERS Despite losses to start the past three seasons, Texas Tech has traditionally fared well in season openers as the Red Raiders are 28-12 all-time. Tech fell 3-1 in its 2011 opener at TCU that marked the first match of the Don Flora era. The Red Raiders have posted only one season-opening victory since 2005 which came in 2008 when Tech topped North Texas, 3-0, in the Mean Green Classic. Texas Tech in Season Openers (Since 2000) Year Opponent (Date) Result Site 2000 Liberty (9/1) W, 3-1 Columbia, S.C. 2001 Georgia Tech (8/31) L, 0-3 Salt Lake City, Utah 2002 Fairfield (8/30) W, 3-0 Hempstead, N.Y. 2003 Sam Houston State (8/29) W, 3-1 Corpus Christi, Texas 2004 San Diego State (9/3) W, 3-1 San Diego, Calif. 2005 Wichita State (8/27) L, 0-3 Houston, Texas 2006 Sacramento State (8/25) L, 1-3 El Paso, Texas 2007 Virginia (8/24) L, 1-3 Las Vegas, Nev. 2008 North Texas (8/29) W, 3-0 Denton, Texas 2009 Creighton (8/28) L, 0-3 Omaha, Neb. 2010 Rice (8/27) L, 0-3 Houston, Texas 2011 TCU (8/26) L, 1-3 Fort Worth, Texas THE SERIES Of the four teams in this weekend’s Boston College Invitational, Texas Tech has faced only Fordham previously in school history. The Red Raiders swept the Rams, 3-0, in the only meeting between the two schools which took place Sept. 7, 2007 to start the Syracuse Tournament. UPCOMING SCHEDULE The Red Raiders open their 2012 home schedule next weekend when they host the Lonestar Showdown presented by Under Armour. The two-day tournament will match Tech against Texas-Pan American, San Jose State, and Northwestern State. After concluding the tournament on Sept. 1, the Red Raiders will turn around two days later to face North Texas to conclude a four-match homestand. RED RAIDERS MAKE FIRST TRIP TO THE NORTHEAST SINCE 2007 This weekend’s season-opening trip to the Boston area is believed to be the first time Texas Tech has ever played in the state of Massachusetts. It also marks the first time the Red Raiders had traveled to the northeast since participating in the Syracuse Tournament in 2007. Tech went 2-1 with wins over both Fordham and Princeton before falling to the host Orange in four sets to conclude the tournament.

TEXAS TECH HITS THE COURT FIRST AMONG BIG 12 SCHOOLS Texas Tech will be the first Big 12 Conference school to open the 2012 season Friday when the Red Raiders battle Fordham at 9 a.m. CT in the first of 10 matches among league members scheduled throughout the day. Only new conference member West Virginia will have played a match prior to the Red Raiders returning to the court later in the afternoon to face Binghamton at 4 p.m. CT. RED RAIDERS LOOK TO CONTINUE NON-CONFERENCE SUCCESS UNDER FLORA In only his first season, Don Flora was able to lead the Red Raiders to their best start to a season since 2000 when Tech went 13-1 over the first month with the only loss coming in the opener at TCU. The Red Raiders rolled off 13-straight victories from that point, marking the school’s longest winning streak since 1996. Tech will once again be looking for a similar performance against the non-conference slate this season after the Red Raiders combined to go 14-2 outside of league play a year ago. The Red Raiders finished just one win shy of .500 with a 15-17 record that marked the program’s most victories since 2001. CAVE NAMED TO PRESEASON ALL-BIG 12 TEAM Miara Cave was Texas Tech’s only honoree on the Big 12 Preseason Team that was announced prior to the season. The senior was one of 15 conference players honored in a vote by the league coaches after totaling 298 kills a year ago to go along with a .231 hitting percentage. The selection marked the third-straight season a Red Raider has been represented on the preseason team after Amanda Dowdy garnered the accolade the past two years.

2012 TEXAS TECH VOLLEYBALL RED RAIDERS PICKED EIGHTH IN BIG 12 PRESEASON POLL In order to advance to the postseason for the first time since 2001, Texas Tech will have to do better than its preseason poll prediction as the Red Raiders were picked to finish eighth in the nine-team Big 12 Conference in a vote by the league coaches. Texas, which has won the conference title in four of the past five seasons, was a unanimous selection to defend its Big 12 crown from a year ago with Iowa State and Kansas State being picked second and third, respectively. Oklahoma, Baylor, Kansas, and TCU rounded out the picks in front of Tech, while new league member West Virginia was the only school picked behind the Red Raiders in a unanimous selection.

Don Flora Head Coach 2nd Season University of La Verne ‘90, ‘00 Career Record: 284-76 (12) At Tech: 15-17 (1) @CoachFloraTTU
I
n only one season as the head volleyball coach at Texas Tech, Don Flora has already revitalized a once storied program.
Flora was named the eighth volleyball coach in school history on Jan. 7, 2011, and immediately hit the ground running, leading the Red Raiders to a 15-17 record, the program’s most victories since 2001. It also marked the third-largest win differential in the country (+11) from the 2010 to 2011 season after inheriting a program that was just 4-25 the year before. Not bad for a first-year head coach who inherited a program that had only won 11 matches over its previous three seasons combined. Flora led the Red Raiders to that total in only his second month. Flora is 284-76 in 12 total seasons as a collegiate head coach as he remains one of the winningest active coaches with 10 years of experience at any level of NCAA play. In his 12 seasons as a head coach, Flora’s only other losing season came during his inaugural campaign at the University of La Verne (Calif.) when the Leopards similarly finished just two matches below .500 with a 12-14 mark. Flora led La Verne to 20 or more wins in nine of his next 10 seasons. The California native will look to do the same at Texas Tech as he enters the 2012 season, his second on the South Plains, with a young roster composed of 11 newcomers coming mainly from his first true recruiting class that spanned the Western Hemisphere as well as the state of Texas. Flora and his staff traveled to Canada to sign setter Emily Ruetter and then reached the Midwest with the addition of Brianna Grant out of Illinois and Meghan Stacy from Missouri. He also stayed close to home with the signing of Emily Ehrle from Crowley, Texas, who was the first of five other true freshmen to join the program. Red Raider fans took notice in only his first year as Tech averaged more than 800 fans in 2011, around a 15 percent increase from the year before. Tech broke the 1,000 fan mark three times, including a season high 1,413 on Nov. 9 against No. 8 Texas that was the largest announced attendance since 1,468 fans saw the Red Raiders face top-ranked Nebraska. Flora came to Tech following a two-year stint as an assistant coach at New Mexico State where the Aggies, consistently one of the top programs nationally, compiled a 38-22 record. Flora was responsible for recruiting activities, practice instruction and game strategy and was involved in the daily development of the overall program under head coach Mike Jordan. La Verne posted at least 20 wins in nine-straight seasons beginning in 2000 as the Leopards claimed ninestraight Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SCIAC) titles. During Flora’s tenure, the Leopards were 140-10 in SCIAC matches, boasting an impressive .933 winning percentage helped in part by five undefeated 14-0 campaigns in 2002, 2003, 2004, 2007, and 2008. As the success kept building early in Flora’s tenure, so did the achievements at the national level. In only Flora’s fourth season, the Leopards wrapped a near-perfect 27-1 season with the 2001 NCAA Division III National Title, the second in school history. The title run earned Flora the Division III National Coach of the Year honor by both the American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA) and Volleyball Magazine. He was also named the AVCA West Region Coach of the Year, an award he was presented three more times following the 2003, 2005, and 2008 seasons. With a national title under his belt, Flora’s success kept rolling as the Leopards eventually posted their first 30-win season in 2003, which began a streak of three-straight seasons where La Verne advanced to the NCAA Final Four. The Leopards posted a school-record 33 wins a season later. The Leopards posted 27 wins in each of Flora’s final three seasons at the school, which culminated in another national title match appearance in 2008. Unlike 2001, however, La Verne was topped in the championship, falling to Emory in four sets. Flora graduated with a degree in social sciences from La Verne in 1990 before later returning to the classroom to earn his masters in the Leadership and Management curriculum in 2000. Flora, a native of Covina, Calif., and his wife, Jeanne, currently reside in Lubbock with their two daughters, Annika and Alexis. @TECHATHLETICS
