REVIEW

West Virginia played four teams ranked inside the AVCA Top-25 Poll in 2018, facing nationally-ranked Texas and Baylor twice in league action in addition to nonconference matches against No. 1 Stanford and No. 9 BYU. The season was highlighted with a win against in-state foe Marshall on Nov. 7, as the Mountaineers captured the Golden Ball Trophy three times in the last four years. Off the court, WVU was named a recipient of the American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA) Team Academic Award for the third straight year. In addition, eight student-athletes were named to the 2018 Academic All-Big 12 First Team, a program-best showing, while six freshmen landed on the 2018-19 Academic All-Big 12 Rookie Team.

REED » HEAD COACH DATE OF BIRTH: January 14 HOMETOWN: Hilo, Hawaii ALMA MATER: UCLA, B.S. 1989 PLAYING CAREER: U CLA, 1982-86 Nike/Molten, 1987, 1990 Cisneros Isla Verdes, 1987-88 YEARS AT WVU: 5th Season RECORD AT WVU: 49-74 (Four Seasons) OVERALL RECORD: 374-238 (19 Seasons) Reed Sunahara enters his fifth season at the helm of the Mountaineers after being named the head coach of the West Virginia University volleyball program in March of 2015.

Under his supervision, the Mountaineers made the postseason for the first time since 1991, reaching the 2017 National Invitational Volleyball Championship (NIVC) Semifinals. The tournament bid was made possible with a top-25 upset at No. 14 Kansas in the team’s regular-season finale on Nov. 25.

From an individual standpoint, Sunahara has saw a trio of Mountaineers earn All-Big 12 recognition in Payton Caffrey, Erin Slinde and Mia Swanegan. In addition to the squad’s All-Big 12 honors, Caffrey was named the 2016 American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA) Freshman of the Year and was awarded a spot on the AVCA All-Midwest Region Team. She also landed on the AVCA All-Midwest Region Honorable Mention list a year later.

Additionally, Sunahara’s team has earned eight Big 12 Player of the Week nods, led by Caffrey with five weekly honors.

The Mountaineers also have enjoyed great success off the court. Since Sunahara was named head coach in 2015, West Virginia has earned 38 Academic All-Big 12 honors, with a program-record eight Academic All-Big 12 First Team members coming in 2018. Then-sophomore Katie DeMeo also became the first Mountaineer to land on the CoSIDA Academic All-District 2 Volleyball Team since Hannah Shreve received the honor in 2016.

22

Shreve also earned the Dr. Gerald Lage Academic Achievement Award by the Big 12 Conference, the league’s highest academic honor, in 2016, followed

by Gianna Gotterba in 2017. Additionally, the Mountaineers have earned the prestigious AVCA Team Academic Award (3.3 team grade point average or higher) three times under Sunahara’s direction.

The 2018 team was one of Sunahara’s youngest squads, featuring no seniors, as the Mountaineers posted an 11-win season. WVU played four teams ranked inside the AVCA Top-25 Poll, facing nationally-ranked Texas and Baylor twice in league action in addition to nonconference matches against No. 1 Stanford and No. 9 BYU. The season was highlighted with a win against in-state foe Marshall on Nov. 7, to capture the Golden Ball Trophy three times in the last four years.

Four Mountaineers finished the season in the top 10 of five Big 12 categories: then-freshman Lacey Zerwas ranked sixth with 9.18 assists per set, then-junior Katelyn Evans ranked ninth with 3.17 kills per set, then-freshman Kristina Jordan ranked 10th with 0.22 aces per set and DeMeo ranked fifth with 1.27 blocks per set and 10th with a .289 hitting percentage.

It was the 2017 season when the Mountaineers made their mark in the record book. The 2017 campaign marked the first time in 26 years the Mountaineers made the postseason, with WVU reaching the NIVC Semifinals. West Virginia also won three of its last four Big 12 Conference matches, upsetting No. 14 Kansas in the team’s regular-season finale for their first-ever win over a top-25 team.

West Virginia finished the 2017 campaign in fifth for the first time since joining the league in 2012.

Additionally, West Virginia’s 21-13 record is only the second time in program history the Mountaineers have won 20 or more matches since their move to big-time volleyball in the Big East in 1995. With 21 wins in 2017, Sunahara earned his highest win total as head coach of the Mountaineers.

WVU also tied the team’s longest win streak since 2014 with a win over TCU on Sept. 20, 2017, notching 10 consecutive victories in the span of 18 days. However, the streak was snapped on Sept. 23, as the team suffered a heartbreaking five-set loss to No. 6 Texas inside the WVU Coliseum.

The 2016 season saw WVU more than double its 2015-win total, posting 12 victories in Sunahara’s second season. On Sept. 27, 2016, Sunahara notched his first Big 12 win with a 3-0 sweep of Texas Tech in Lubbock, Texas. The Mountaineers added a win over TCU a week later and finished the season with three league triumphs, while dropping a heartbreaker to No. 4 Kansas in five sets to end their home slate in November.

Under Sunahara’s guidance, Caffrey, who earned Big 12 Rookie of the Week honors four times, became the first Mountaineer in program history to earn AVCA Midwest Region Freshman of the Year accolades in addition to spots on the AVCA All-Midwest Region Team, All-Big 12 First Team and All-Big 12 Freshman Team. Slinde joined Caffrey in receiving league accolades, as she landed on the All-Big 12 Freshman Team.

WVUSPORTS.COM

In his first season guiding the Mountaineers, Sunahara led the program to a thrilling 3-2 win over Marshall. The victory marked WVU’s first over its in-state rival since 2010, bringing the Golden Ball Trophy back to Morgantown.

Sunahara brought more than 15 years of NCAA Division I experience and strong ties to USA Volleyball. In addition, he has coached five AVCA All-Americans, three AVCA Region Freshman of the Year honorees, three Conference Player of the Year selections, six Conference Freshman of the Year selections and 26 all-conference honorees.

He joined the Mountaineers after spending the previous season as the head coach at Buffalo, accruing a 17-15 mark in his one season with the Bulls.

Sunahara served as the top assistant for the U.S. National Team from March of 2013 to January of 2014, helping Team USA to a 25-6 record and a No. 2 world ranking at that time.

He also served as the head coach for Team USA during its gold medal run at the 2012 Women’s Pan American Cup in Juarez, Mexico, and was a NORCECA instructor, guiding both the Jamaican National Team and U18 NORCECA Women’s Continental Championship teams to gold medals as well.

Prior to his time with USA Volleyball, Sunahara spent 11 seasons as the head coach at Cincinnati, where he led the Bearcats to eight NCAA Tournament appearances and recorded 20 or more wins every season. The Bearcats won the 2011 Big East Tournament, finishing with an overall record of 27-10 and a league mark of 12-2, while a trio of players garnered all-conference accolades.

Cincinnati also was the 2009 and 2010 Big East regular season champions, with Stephanie Niemer garnering Big East Player of the Year and AVCA All-America honors both seasons. The Bearcats advanced to the NCAA Second Round in 2009, 2010 and 2011.

The Bearcats won a share of the first-ever Big East regularseason crown in 2008, posting an impressive 14-0 home record. Sunahara guided the program to the NCAA Second Round for the second time in program history, with Jessie Nevitt earning her fourth All-Big East First-Team honors and her third All-America accolades. From 2000-07, Cincinnati posted double-digit conference wins on six occasions.

Sunahara garnered Big East Coach of the Year accolades in 2008 and 2010, and was the 2001 C-USA Coach of the Year.

Prior to joining the Big East, Cincinnati won the 2001 and 2003 C-USA Championships, qualifying for the NCAA Tournament both seasons and advancing to the NCAA Second Round in 2001. He departed as the winningest coach in UC history.

Sunahara spent two seasons as an assistant coach with the Bearcats, helping them to the 1999 C-USA Tournament Championship. He served as the head coach for the University of Toledo from 1995-96 after serving as an assistant coach for the Rockets from 1993-94.

Sunahara got his start in coaching as an assistant with the men’s team at UCLA, his alma mater, from 1990-93 after serving as a graduate assistant in 1987 and 1989. He helped the Bruins to national championships in 1987, 1989 and 1993.

A voter in the AVCA Top-25 poll from 2002-11, Sunahara was the C-USA Volleyball President from 2002 to 2003 and was the Big East Volleyball President from 2006 to 2007. He also was a head coaches committee representative from 2006 to 2008 and served on the AVCA All-American Selection Committee in 2014.

A native of Hilo, Hawaii, Sunahara was a two-time AllAmerican and three-time NCAA Champion at UCLA alongside Olympians Ricci Luyties, Doug Partie, Dave Saunders and AVP legend and current U.S. Olympic Team coach Karch Kiraly before graduating with a degree in sociology in 1989. He won a pair of USVBA National Championships with Nike/Molten in 1987 and 1990, and went on to play professionally for Cisneros Isla Verdes in the Canary Islands, Spain.

QUOTABLE - HEAD COACH

REED SUNAHARA

ON THE BEST WAY TO DESCRIBE THIS YEAR’S GROUP I think we have grown a lot over the past year. Everyone has at least one year of experience except for (freshman) Natalie (Winter). They are playing with a lot more confidence just because they are familiar with the system. I think the additions of (assistant coach Adriano de Souza) AD, (assistant coach) Stephanie (Niemer) and (associate director of strength and conditioning Kaitlin) Sweeney have helped us get better overall, and the girls have been very receptive of the new staff.

Overall, we are getting better at our craft.

They have done a nice job of working hard.

We had a good spring, and I’m excited to put this team on the floor.

ON HIS EXPECTATIONS FOR THE UPCOMING SEASON I just want us to get better every game and every practice. Our motto is to get one percent better every day. My expectations are a lot higher because if I’m not expecting a lot from them then we don’t get anywhere. I expect them to be better from this weekend to the next and all the way into conference play. The ultimate goal for this program is to make the NCAA Tournament because we have never done that before. We went to the postseason two years ago, but I think that’s what we should strive for every year. I’m expecting bigger and better things from us.

2019 MOUNTAINEERS

66

ON THE TEAM’S NONCONFERENCE SLATE Every match is a match for them to get better. Every practice is a practice for them to get better. What we are trying to do is prepare them for matches in practice and then they can gain experience in the match and build off that. We’re going to take each tournament as it comes. We must take it one match at a time. I just want us to get better every match and build momentum into the next. Anything can happen. We’re going to put the best team on the court, and then, we’ll go from there.

ON HIS KEY RETURNERS THIS SEASON I think (sophomore outside hitter Kristin) Lux has gotten better, and (sophomore middle blocker/outside hitter Kristina Jordan) KJ is playing well. I think (sophomore setter) Lacey (Zerwas) has gotten better. I think everyone has gotten better in certain aspects, even (junior defensive specialist Alexa Hasting) Lex got better. We are expecting bigger and better things from everyone this season.

ON HIS TRIO OF CAPTAINS LEADING THE SQUAD (Senior setter/right-side hitter Erin) Slinde and (senior defensive specialist Gabrielle) Gabi (Cuckovich) were captains last year, so it’s just about carrying that over and having continuity and then adding

(sophomore setter) Lacey (Zerwas) to that mix is good because she’s part of the younger crew. I think she is very mature.

She has a good outlook on things, and she works hard. She deserves to be captain, and she can help lead this group for the next three years.

ON JUNIOR DEFENSIVE SPECIALIST ALEXA HASTING LEADING THE FLOOR DEFENSE Her quality of touches are better. She’s a lot more confident, and she has gained a lot of experience being in that role last season. She played behind (graduate Gianna Gotterba) G her first year, and then last year, she was that person. She didn’t start off in the starting lineup, but she earned that spot midway through the year and ran with it. She’s a lot better this year, and she’s the anchor of our defense. We expect big things from her.

ON FILLING THE ROLE OF RIGHT-SIDE HITTER NATANIA LEVAK We have a couple players who can do it.

We have (senior setter/right-side hitter Erin) Slinde, (junior middle blocker/rightside hitter Katie) DeMeo and (sophomore outside hitter) Macy (McElhaney). It will be a rotation by committee, and then we will see who is playing the best. All three bring different aspects to the game, so whoever can score, will earn that spot.

PRESIDENT » WEST VIRGINIA UNIVERSITY

E. GORDON

D

GEE J.D., ED.D

r. E. Gordon Gee is one of America’s most prominent higher education leaders, having helmed universities for more than three decades. In 2009, Time magazine named him one of the top 10 university presidents in the United States. Recently, the website Great Value Colleges named him the nation’s top university president.

In 2014, Gee returned to West Virginia University, where his career as a university president began. His leadership goals include putting students first, advancing the university’s research agenda, partnering with West Virginia communities and making sure that 1.8 million West Virginians know in their hearts and minds that West Virginia University is their university.

Born in Vernal, Utah, Gee graduated from the University of Utah with an honors degree in history and earned his J.D. and Ed.D. degrees from Columbia University. He clerked under Chief Justice David T. Lewis of the U.S. 10th Circuit Court of Appeals before being named a judicial fellow and staff assistant to the U.S. Supreme Court. In this role, he worked for Chief Justice Warren Burger on administrative and legal problems of the Court and federal judiciary. Gee returned to Utah as an associate professor and associate dean in the J. Reuben Clark Law School at Brigham Young University and was granted full professorship in 1978.

One year later, he became dean of the West Virginia University College of Law, and, in 1980, was named West Virginia University president. He served in that role until 1985.

He went on to lead the University of Colorado (1985-1990), Brown University (1998-2000) and Vanderbilt University (20012007). He served as president of The Ohio State University from 1990 to 1997 and again from 2007 to 2013.

Gee has been a member of several education-governance organizations and committees including the Big 12 Conference Council of Presidents, the Business-Higher Education Forum and the American Association of Universities. He was chair of the American Council on Education’s Commission on Higher Education Attainment and served as co-chair of the Association of Public and Land-Grant Universities’ Energy Advisory Committee. In 2009, Gee was invited to join the International Advisory Board of King Adbulaziz University in Saudi Arabia, and he currently serves on the Board of the Royal University for Women in Bahrain.

In 2011-2012, he was asked by Governor Kasich to chair both the Ohio Higher Education Capital Funding Collaborative and the Ohio Higher Education Funding Commission. In March 2015, he was elected to the board of directors of the American Council on Education, the nation’s largest higher education organization. And he served as chair of the Big 12 Board of Directors Executive Committee for the 2017-18 year. Gee presently serves on the council of presidents for the Southern University Research Association.

Mentoring and inspiring youth is one of Gee’s highest priorities. He serves on the National Executive Board for Boy Scouts of America and on the Board of Trustees for the National 4-H Council. Through his leadership, West Virginia University has created a Youth Development Initiative office to expand its partnering relationships with Boy Scouts, 4-H and similar organizations.

Gee has received many honorary degrees, awards, fellowships and recognitions. He is a fellow of the prestigious American Association for the Advancement of Science, the world’s largest science organization. In 1994, Gee received the Distinguished Alumnus Award from the University of Utah, as well as from Teachers College of Columbia University. In 2013, he received the ACE Council of Fellows/Fidelity Investments Mentor Award and received the Outstanding Academic Leader of the Year Award on behalf of Historically Black Colleges and Universities. This year, Boy Scouts of America gave him the Silver Buffalo Award, Scouting’s top honor for adult volunteers. Gee is the co-author of over a dozen books, including his two most recent, “Leading Colleges and Universities” and “Land-Grant Universities for the Future.”

In the summer of 2016, Gee announced his engagement to Laurie Erickson, leader of the Erickson Foundation. Gee’s daughter, Rebekah, is Secretary of the Louisiana Department of Health. In addition to that role, she is a practicing gynecologist and Gratis Faculty at the Louisiana State University School of Medicine and Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center in New Orleans.

DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS

SHANE

I

LYONS ASSOCIATE VICE-PRESIDENT

n his fifth year as the director of athletics at West Virginia University, Shane Lyons’ vison for the athletic program is crystal clear and working. It’s a vision that focuses on the betterment of more than 500 student-athletes and the day-to-day needs that will help them succeed in the classroom and in competition.

His open lines of communications have made him a popular role model for WVU athletes and coaches. His honest, fair and caring approach has energized an entire department, which has led to great success on and off the field. Whether it’s regularly scheduled meetings with the student-athletes or his open-door office policy, Lyons has his finger on the pulse of his student-athletes, coaches and staff.

He devotes endless energy to his Climbing Higher facilities master plan that will keep West Virginia a strong Power 5 institution and position his department for growth and continued success. Lyons’ Climbing Higher facilities master plan isn’t about keeping up with the Joneses, it’s about taking what his department has, improving it and making it complete for the student-athlete. It’s an aggressive $100 million fundraising campaign centered on one of his core values, which is enhancing the student-athlete experience.

From training, nutrition, medical and competitiveness, Lyons’ vision is for future success, building winning programs and growing WVU’s strong reputation across the country. He is about results, and he has already left a great deal of accomplishments in his rear-view mirror.

In 2019, West Virginia recorded its highest APR score ever at 985 and again finished higher than the national average. The overall athletics department GPA was its highest at 3.26 with 13 teams over a 3.0 GPA for the year. Lyons commissioned and announced an Economic Impact study that showed Mountaineer Athletics produced more than $300 million to the state’s economy and more than $78 million to the local economy. And with the local economy in mind, Lyons’s department will assist with the formal opening of a new $45 million aquatic and track facility that will not only benefit WVU’s swimming and diving program, but also local high schools and the entire community.

Among the Mountaineer highlights in the 2019 campaign were 43 All-Americans, 81 All-Conference performers, three conference championships, 159 Academic AllConference selections, seven teams to the NCAA postseason, a fourth-place finish for the Heisman Trophy and 22 professional draft picks among all sports.

In addition, Lyons’ department hosted for the first time in history both the NCAA Rifle Championships and the Big 12 golf championship as well as the NCAA baseball regionals for the first time since 1955. In total, WVU athletics hosted more than 160 events during the 2018-19 season.

From 2015-18, he spearheaded and finished more than $100 million in fan enhancements to Milan Puskar Stadium and the WVU Coliseum, completed a second phase Coliseum renovations, bringing the arena up to current ADA seating code, and for the first-time ever, introduced a second video board to Milan Puskar Stadium to provide information and improve fan entertainment.

Overseeing 18 varsity sports, a self-sustaining department budget of more than $93 million and 250 employees, under Lyons’ leadership, WVU athletics has implemented a Clinical and Sport Psychology unit with a full-time director and professional interns, added specialized learning assistants to the Student-Athlete Development unit and entered into a partnership with WVU Medicine’s Neuroscience Department to assist in the training and recovery of student-athletes, all emphasizing his overall commitment to the well-being and performance of Mountaineer student-athletes.

Ask him and he’ll tell you it’s not his department, but West Virginia’s department, and he can tell you his vision to improve it not only for the coming year, but for three, five, seven and 10 years down the road. He cares, and the proof lies in what he has already accomplished in four years. The director hates to be last, and he rolls up his sleeves every day to make sure WVU is not last in anything.

Additionally, his work with WVU President E. Gordon Gee’s senior leadership team, as well as the Big 12 Conference and other national committees, has brought additional respect and positive exposure to his department and the University. He currently serves on the Big 12 Administration Committee, Finance and Budget Committee and the Game Management and Officiating Subcommittee. In 2018, he chaired the overall athletic directors committee for the Big 12, was named again to the NCAA Division I Council and will serve as chair of the NCAA Division I Football Oversight Committee. He is also a member of the college football competition committee and locally serves on the board of directors for Mylan Park i n Morgantown.

Lyons came to West Virginia after spending three years as the deputy director of athletics and chief operating officer at Alabama where he worked closely on day-to-day strategic leadership and direction of the Crimson Tide Athletic program.

During his time at Alabama, his responsibilities included oversight of a $120 million budget, management of the day-to-day operations of the department and oversight of the Crimson Tide’s 21 sports teams. In addition, he played a pivotal role in a historic renegotiation of Alabama’s multimedia rights agreement that started in 2014 and was involved in several significant capital projects totaling more than $85 million.

The Crimson Tide won seven national titles in five different sports during his time there – two in football, two in men’s golf, one in women’s golf, one in gymnastics and one in softball. He also played a critical role in the hiring of four Alabama head coaches.

Prior to joining the Alabama staff in November 2011, Lyons spent 10 years as an associate commissioner at the Atlantic Coast Conference. At the ACC, Lyons focused on

conference-wide compliance and academic initiatives, providing direct assistance to the conference’s presidents, chancellors and athletics directors in matters dealing with NCAA regulatory matters.

In addition, he served as the ACC’s human resource manager and was responsible for the administration, negotiation and mediation of the employee benefits program and managing the conference’s organizational policies and procedures. He was part of the senior administrative team for ACC events, including the football championship game, the men’s basketball tournament and men’s and women’s NCAA basketball events.

Prior to working at the ACC, Lyons served as associate athletics director for compliance at Big 12 member Texas Tech from 1998 to 2001. During that time, Lyons assumed responsibility for the leadership, administration and implementation of a comprehensive NCAA compliance program with emphasis toward rules education and extensive monitoring systems. He also served as oversight administrator for several of the Red Raiders’ athletic teams and had financial and operational supervision of the strength and conditioning, nutritional and sports medicine units.

Before joining Texas Tech, Lyons worked at the NCAA for almost 10 years as a senior membership services representative, where he was responsible for the oversight and coordination of rules and interpretations for the 25 membership service representatives and was the staff liaison to various NCAA standing committees.

Lyons began his career in college athletics in July 1988 as assistant commissioner of the Big South Conference. With the Big South, he was in charge of conference-wide compliance and championships.

A native of Parkersburg, West Virginia, and a graduate of Parkersburg High, Lyons was a standout basketball player for the Big Reds. He earned bachelor’s and master’s degrees in sport management from WVU in 1987 and 1988, respectively.

Lyons, the University’s 12th athletic director, and his wife, Emily, a graduate of the University of Wisconsin-Madison, have two children: Cameron and Brooke. Cameron is a member of the football team at Akron and Brooke attends Morgantown High School.
