HEAD COACH

JASON BUTTS Following a five-year tenure that saw him rise from assistant coach to associate head coach, Jason Butts became West Virginia University’s third gymnastics head coach in April 2011.

Since his appointment, Butts has compiled a 148-106-1 (.582) career record with the Mountaineers. He has led WVU to 10 appearances at the NCAA Regional Championships and a program-best, second-place showing at the 2015 Big 12 Gymnastics Championship.

2023 SEASON

Butts led the Mountaineers to another impressive and record-breaking season in 2023. The squad capped the year with a 12-9 record, including a 1-2 mark in Big 12 Conference competition with its first regular-season Big 12 victory since 2017. WVU earned its 43rd NCAA Regional appearance with an automatic bye into the NCAA Pittsburgh Regional Second Round, bypassing the First Round, play-in meet for the first time since 2019.

Also in the postseason, West Virginia played host to the Big 12 Gymnastics Championship for the second time in the last three seasons. The Mountaineers finished in third place for the second straight year, marking WVU’s first back-to-back, third-place finish since 2016-17.

Butts’ squad reached heights nearly 20 years in the making in 2023, as it posted a season-high score of 197.325 on March 5 to mark the highest team total since 2004. West Virginia reached the 197.0 threshold for the first time since 2004, as well as the first time in Butts’ 12-year tenure as head coach. The Mountaineers recorded event scores of 49.425 on vault and 49.475 on beam in that performance, which also were their highest totals since the 2004 campaign.

WVU continued its season-long streak of 49.0+ scores on floor exercise, where it remained ranked inside the top 25 on Road to Nationals throughout the year. The Mountaineers reached a season-best 49.575 on floor on Feb. 19, its best score since 2016, with all six gymnasts scoring a 9.9 or higher. West Virginia finished the year ranked No. 19 on vault and floor, as well as No. 30 overall, in the Road to Nationals rankings.

In the classroom, Butts’ student-athletes continued to do their part, as 11 earned a spot on the 2023 Winter Academic All-Big 12 First Team. Brooke Alban and Kianna Yancey were recognized on the team with 4.0 grade point averages. Additionally, Emily Holmes-Hackerd and Abbie Pierson were named recipients of the Dr. Gerald Lage Academic Achievement Award, the Big 12’s highest academic honor.

2022 SEASON

In a return to a more normal season following the COVID-19 pandemic, Butts’ 2022 Mountaineers finished the year at 13-5 on their way to their seventh consecutive NCAA Regional Championships berth. Butts led WVU to a record-breaking campaign that consisted of 11 straight wins and six team scores that rank inside the program’s top 50 all-time, culminating with a third-place finish at the 2022 Big 12 Championship. The squad recorded a season-high and a program-best at the championship with a 196.575, earning its highest finish at the conference meet since 2017.

Butts and the Mountaineers received recognition at the conference level for their impressive season in 2022, as Kendra Combs and Abbie Pierson garnered WVU’s first Big 12 Gymnast of the Week accolades since 2019.

WVUSPORTS.COM

It was the first time the team earned multiple weekly honors in the same season since 2016.

At season’s end, Combs was named a member of the All-Big 12 Team, the first WVU gymnast to earn all-conference honors on the all-around since 2014.

Additionally, Rachel Hornung finished third on the all-around at the Big 12 Championship, earning recognition on the All-Big 12 Championship Team, West Virginia’s first honor on the all-around since 2015.

The Mountaineers were ranked inside the top 25 of the Road to Nationals rankings on floor exercise every week during the regular season, finishing the year at No. 19 with a 49.345 National Qualifying Score (NQS). WVU’s floor lineup debuted in the rankings at No. 4 on Jan. 17, marking the team’s highest ranking since at least 1998. The last time the Mountaineers appeared inside the Road to Nationals top 10 was in 2001.

Academically, nine Mountaineers earned a spot on the 2022 Academic All-Big 12 Gymnastics First Team, including four gymnasts who were recognized with 4.0 grade point averages.

2021 SEASON

The 2021 campaign saw the Mountaineers competing in a double round-robin, home and away conference slate due to restrictions in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. Along with six conference meets, WVU also competed against regional rival Pitt to close the regular season. Butts led WVU to a pair of wins against the Panthers, while the team ended the year ranked No. 28 in the Road to Nationals Rankings with a NQS of 391.419.

The Mountaineers’ floor exercise lineup was ranked inside the top 25 every week, as the squad posted a 49.0 or higher in all but two meets. Kendra Combs ranked inside the top 10 on floor in the conference, checking in at No. 10 overall with an NQS of 9.888.

Combs also led the squad with 11 podium finishes and seven event wins on the year.

In the postseason, West Virginia hosted the Big 12 Gymnastics Championship and the NCAA Morgantown Regional Championships inside the WVU Coliseum in Morgantown. Butts’ Mountaineers finished fourth (195.725) at the Big 12 Championship and third (195.65) in the second of two second-round meets at the Regional Championships.

Nine Mountaineers earned a spot on the 2021 Academic All-Big 12 Gymnastics Teams, including six first-team members. Kianna Yancey was the lone WVU gymnast to earn the recognition with a 4.0 grade point average.

McKenna Linnen also received the Dr. Gerald Lage Academic Achievement Award, the Big 12 Conference’s highest academic honor.

2020 SEASON

In a season cut short by the COVID-19 pandemic, Butts guided WVU to four top-50 scores in 2020,

including a season-high 196.425 in wins over Pitt and Rutgers on March 1, at the WVU Coliseum. West Virginia won six of its last eight competitions and finished the year ranked No. 24 nationally on floor exercise.

Individually, 12 of the 16 Mountaineers who saw competitive time reached the podium. Chloe Cluchey posted a personal best on floor, scoring a winning 9.95 on March 1. Her total was the team’s highest individual score of the season, becoming the first WVU gymnast to earn a 9.95+ since Kirah Koshinski scored a 9.975 on March 17, 2019.

Academically, a program-record eleven Mountaineers were named NACGC/W Scholastic All-Americans, marking the fifth time since 1987 that 10 or more gymnasts received recognition. Nine student-athletes also earned a spot on the 2020 Academic All-Big 12 Gymnastics First Team. The nine first-team honors are a team record and top the previous season-best showing of eight, set in 2018 and 2019. Abby Kaufman and Julia Merwin also received the Dr. Gerald Lage Academic Achievement Award, the Big 12 Conference’s highest academic honor.

Additionally, Kaufman landed on the CoSIDA Academic All-America At-Large Third Team for the second year in a row and became the first gymnast in program history to receive the Order of Augusta award, WVU’s most prestigious student honor. Kaufman also earned WVU’s Fred Schaus Captain’s Award, an honor given to the University’s most outstanding varsity team captain.

2019 SEASON

In 2019, Butts led WVU to the regional championships for the 40th time in program history and placed fourth in the second of two second round quad meets at the NCAA Ann Arbor Regional Championships with a 195.425 score. Prior to the regional championships, WVU placed fourth at the Big 12 Championship with a 195.6 score.

West Virginia reached double-digit wins in just six meets, the fastest under Butts and the quickest since earning 10 victories in five meets in 2010. The Mountaineers’ 2019 win total of 19 was the team’s top win mark since earning 21 in 2012, Butts’ first season. WVU finished the season with a 19-9 overall record (0-4 Big 12).

West Virginia also was nationally ranked twice in the Road to Nationals Rankings. The vault and floor lineups were nationally ranked each week, with the floor lineup spending seven weeks in the top 10 and peaking at No. 5. At season end, Jaquie Tun and Koshinski owned a combined three national rankings.

Koshinski ranked No. 7 on vault and No. 28 on floor, while Tun ranked No. 45 on floor.

Individually, Butts helped coach Koshinski to her fourth career All-America honor and first first-team recognition, as she was named to the NACGC/W Regular Season All-America Vault First Team.

Additionally, Kaufman competed in the all-around in all 14 meets, the second-highest season total in program history, and earned 544.925 points, the third-best single-season total in program history.

WVU tallied three top-50 scores, including a season-high 196.425 in wins over No. 22 Ohio State, No. 24 Penn State and NC State on March 17, at the WVU Coliseum. Most notably, WVU totaled 49.5 on floor in wins over Pitt and Cornell on Feb. 17, at the WVU Coliseum. The mark was the fifth-best floor score in program history. Koshinski earned the first 10.0 of her career that same day and claimed the floor victory with a career-best 9.975.

Academically, eight Mountaineers earned a spot on the 2019 Academic All-Big 12 Gymnastics First Team.

Three Mountaineers earned the honor with 4.0 grade point averages (GPA); no other conference team had an honoree with a 4.0 GPA. Seven gymnasts also were named NACGC/W Scholastic All-Americans.

Kaufman led the way in the classroom and became the first gymnast since 2007 to be selected to an Academic All-America Team, as she was named to the 2019 CoSIDA Women’s At-Large Academic All-America Third Team. She also became the second Mountaineer gymnast and the first since Jaida Lawrence in 2015 to earn Big 12 Scholar-Athlete of the Year accolades.

2018 SEASON

The Mountaineers were at their most consistent in 2018, as WVU did not count a fall in all but one meet and finished the year at 13-13 (0-6).

WVU made its fourth consecutive appearance at the NCAA Regional Championships, its sixth qualification under Butts, and finished fourth at the 2018 Big 12 Championship with a 195.625 score, its second-best mark in a championship away from Morgantown.

Additionally, WVU sat within the national rankings four times throughout the season.

The Mountaineers made their mark in the record book in 2018, as WVU posted five team scores that rank in the program’s top-50 list. Four of the scores were 196.0 or better, and three were earned away from the WVU Coliseum, a feat never achieved before by a Mountaineer team.

For the third consecutive season, a Mountaineer earned All-America accolades, as Koshinski was named to the NACGC/W All-America Second Team for vault, her third career honor. She is only the second Mountaineer gymnast in program history to earn at least three career awards.

Academically, a program-record 10 Mountaineers were named to the 2018 Academic All-Big 12 Gymnastics Team, with eight landing on the first team. Additionally, for the second consecutive season, 10 gymnasts were named Scholastic All-Americans by the NACGC/W. WVU ranked No. 28 nationally and tops among Big 12 schools with a team GPA of 3.5233.

The 2017 season was one of the Mountaineers’ strongest outings under Butts. Not only did WVU have a presence at the NCAA Championships, as Zaakira Muhammad qualified in the all-around, but the program also saw a pair of All-Americans crowned and finished the year ranked No. 20 in the Road to Nationals Rankings.

The Mountaineers punctuated the 2017 season with a program-best showing at the NCAA Morgantown Regional Championships, finishing third overall with a 196.325 mark. The record mark, just 0.3 points short of second-place Alabama, also was a season high.

The Mountaineers finished the season ranked No. 3 in the Southeast Region, the team’s highest position of the year.

Following its 2016 opener, WVU hit 195.0 or better in 11 straight contests, marking the first time since 2004, and only the second time in program history, the squad scored 195.0+ in all but one of its regular season meets. The Mountaineers finished with an 11-8 overall record (1-5 Big 12).

Eight gymnasts were named Scholastic All-Americans by the NACGC/W. The accolades were the most for the program since 2011. Additionally, seven gymnasts landed on the Academic All-Big 12 Gymnastics Team.

2015 SEASON

Butts led the Mountaineers to their best-ever finish at the 2015 Big 12 Championship, as the team placed second with a 195.025 score.

Butts returned the program to the national stage in his third season in 2014, as Hope Sloanhoffer qualified for the NCAA Championships in the allaround, the first gymnast since 2009 to advance to the national championships and the 18th in program history.

WVUSPORTS.COM 2013 SEASON

In just his second season at the helm, Butts ushered in a new era for WVU gymnastics in 2013, as the Mountaineers joined perennial powerhouse Oklahoma and Iowa State in the Big 12. The team made a name for itself in its new home, as the squad scored 196.0 or better in every home meet, a feat never before achieved in program history, and finished the year at 13-9 (1-3 Big 12). WVU spent six weeks in the GymInfo Poll, peaking at No. 16, and finished third in its first Big 12 Championship. The team also qualified for its 34th NCAA Regional Championships and placed fifth in front of a WVU Coliseum crowd.

Included in 2013’s five 196.0+ performances were a season-best 196.55 mark in a loss to then-No. 3 Michigan (196.925) and wins over New Hampshire (194.875) and Towson (193.15) at the WVU Coliseum on Feb. 24. The Mountaineers’ score was the 10thbest mark in program history. WVU also earned its first Big 12 victory with a 196.15-194.825 win over ISU at the WVU Coliseum on Feb. 10 in front of 2,522 fans, the sixth-largest crowd to attend a home WVU gymnastics meet. In all, WVU competed in front of three home crowds of 1,800 or better, including the team’s Big 12 opener against Oklahoma on Feb. 1, which drew a crowd of 1,881, the 11th-best mark in program history.

Additionally, the squad ranked No. 2 overall in the Big 12 and on every event but bars.

2012 SEASON – THE JASON BUTTS ERA BEGINS

Butts wasted little time in his first season, leading the Mountaineers to a 21-5 record in 2012, their first 20-win season since 2008, and a fifth-place showing at the 2012 NCAA Auburn Regional Championships.

WVU scored 195.9, its best-ever regional score, and finished the year ranked No. 21 nationally, the Mountaineers’ first final season ranking since 2009. WVU concluded the year with a 5-4 mark against ranked teams and earned wins against No. 8 Arkansas, No. 13 Auburn and No. 13 Missouri.

Making good on a promise he gave the team when he was hired, Butts also led the Mountaineers to their league-best seventh East Atlantic Gymnastics League (EAGL) title on March 24, 2012. Sloanhoffer, the EAGL Gymnast of the Year, captured the vault, bars and all-around titles, while Deal secured the beam victory.

WVU tallied a season-best 196.475 score in its win and set three season-best scores on vault (49.25), bars (49.175) and floor (49.2).

Prior to the championship, seven Mountaineers earned 15 All-EAGL honors, including four first-team awards for Sloanhoffer. She ranked No. 1 in the league in the all-around every week of the season.

Following its seven wins at the EAGL Championship, WVU qualified for its 33rd regional championship appearance as the No. 5 seed in the Auburn regional.

Entering regional competition, WVU ranked nationally on vault and floor and owned the league’s top ranking on each event. Additionally, the squad ranked No. 2 on bars and beam.

Nationally ranked for all but four weeks, the Mountaineers opened the 2012 season at No. 21. The squad was ranked in the nation’s top 25 on vault and floor all season and spent the first three weeks of the year nationally ranked in the top 10 on floor. The Mountaineers ended the season ranked No. 20 on vault and No. 21 on floor.

THE ASSISTANT YEARS

A two-time (2009-10) Southeast Region Assistant Coach of the Year, Butts spent five seasons coaching the Mountaineers’ vault, floor and bars lineups under coach Linda Burdette-Good, who announced her retirement after 37 years of leading the Mountaineers in 2011. He helped those three lineups become dominant in the EAGL, as eight Mountaineers earned 19 first team all-league honors in the three events under his tutelage.

As the primary bars coach, Butts produced three EAGL individual bars champions, including 2011 outright winner Amy Bieski. He also guided Mehgan Morris to back-to-back wins in 2008 and 2009. Additionally, he helped mentor Janáe Cox (2007) and Morris (2009) to individual all-around NCAA Championships qualifications and coached Cox to 2007 first team All-America honors on floor.

In his five seasons as an assistant, the Mountaineers produced a 98-44 record, competed at five straight NCAA Regional Championships and claimed the 2008 EAGL Championship. Additionally, Butts coached nine EAGL individual champions, two EAGL Gymnasts of the Year and 57 All-EAGL honorees.

Though the bars lineup shuffled throughout the 2011 season, Butts’ unit produced an overall season average of 48.406. Emily Kerwin ended the year ranked No. 6 in the EAGL and No. 13 in the Southeast Region, with a 9.81 RQS, while league champion Bieski ranked No. 8 in the conference and No. 15 regionally, with a 9.795 RQS. Additionally, the Mountaineers placed the most representatives on the All-EAGL bars first team, as Kerwin, Bieski and Nicole Roach all secured the honor.

In total, four gymnasts swung to multiple scores of 9.8 or better throughout the season, and Bieski and Roach set the team standard with career-best 9.875 marks.

In addition to leading the bars team, Butts helped guide the vault and floor lineups to the No. 1 (49.08 RQS) and No. 2 (49.035) league rankings, respectively.

The units also were nationally ranked No. 17 and No. 21, respectively.

Under his supervision, Sloanhoffer, a nine-time EAGL weekly award winner, was ranked No. 1 in the league, No. 6 in the region and No. 37 in the nation on vault

(9.865 RQS) and earned three 9.9+ vault scores on the season.

Butts was faced with the challenge of filling holes in the bars lineup in 2010, as key contributors were hit with injuries. Under his guidance, the Mountaineers rose to the challenge and finished the season ranked second in the EAGL and fourth in the Southeast Region. Additionally, he guided Bieski and Roach to the No. 8 league ranking with matching 9.79 RQS’.

Butts also helped Chelsi Tabor attain the second-best EAGL vault RQS of 9.855. The mark ranked 10th in the region and 47th nationally.

The Mountaineers finished first on floor and second on bars and vault in the EAGL in 2009; they were nationally ranked 17th and 21st on vault and bars, respectively.

Butts helped guide Morris to a fifth-place all-around finish at the 2009 NCAA Southeast Regional Championship and a qualification for the NCAA Championship. Additionally, she not only repeated as the EAGL bars and floor champion, but she also won the all-around league title and was named the EAGL Outstanding Senior Gymnast.

Three additional Mountaineers won EAGL titles in 2009 – Tabor (vault), Tina Maloney (vault) and Shelly Purkat (beam).

In 2008, Morris scored a 9.85 on bars at the EAGL Championship to win the individual title, and the Mountaineers picked up their first league team title since 2004. Morris, along with Erica Watson, was named to the All-EAGL First Team on bars, while Bieski was a second-team selection in her rookie season.

Butts saw his bars lineup vastly improve through his first season at WVU. After early season struggles, the group came together down the stretch to have the EAGL’s top bars RQS and a score that ranked 23rd in the country by season’s end.

WVU placed second at the EAGL Championship on bars after posting a 48.85. Butts guided Cox and Morris to All-EAGL First Team selections in 2007.

Morris posted four 9.9s that season under Butts and averaged an impressive 9.85 in 13 meets to rank atop the league’s individual rankings. Morris would go on to place seventh in the NCAA Southeast Regional Championships.

The Athens, Georgia, native brought 12 years of club coaching experience to WVU, most recently from Classic City Gymnastics, where he trained men and women from 2001-06.

He guided the women and men to Junior Olympic Nationals during that stretch, as well as sending athletes to the Region 8 Championships, while also assisting numerous gymnasts in earning Division I athletic scholarships in the process.

Butts worked at the Woodward Camp (1994-96) and the UGA Gym Dog Camp (2004-06). He competed as a competitive gymnast for 10 years, reaching Class I status, and he was a Junior Olympic National Qualifier.

Butts received a bachelor’s degree in business administration and management from Georgia in 2006.

He received a master’s degree in athletic coaching education at WVU in 2012.

The Mountaineers debuted at No. 4 on Jan. 17, marking the team’s highest ranking since at least 1998. The last time the Mountaineers appeared inside the Road to Nationals top 10 was in 2001, when WVU ranked No. 8 nationally on floor. The squad recorded a 49.0 or higher at every meet during the season, including a season-best 49.525.

In her first season on the staff in 2021, Muhammad helped the Mountaineers to their 41st NCAA Regional Championships appearance in program history, as West Virginia hosted the regional championship at the WVU Coliseum in Morgantown. WVU ended the year ranked No. 28 in the Road to Nationals Rankings with a National Qualifying Score (NQS) of 391.419. The Mountaineers’ floor exercise lineup was ranked inside the top 25 every week, as the squad posted a 49.0 or higher in all but two meets.

Eleven of the 14 Mountaineers who saw competitive time in 2021 reached the podium. WVU boasted 64 podium finishes on the year, while Kendra Combs led the team with 11 podium finishes and seven event

EMU claimed three team victories in a season cut short due to COVID-19. Individually, Muhammad helped coach a pair of gymnasts to All-Mid-American Conference Second Team honors.

In her first season, she helped TU claim its first-ever Eastern College Athletic Conference (ECAC) Championship title in school history. She also assisted in coaching three individual gymnasts at the 2019 NCAA Athens Regional, including ECAC Rookie of the Year Ariana Castrence on vault.

ASSISTANT COACH

JESSICA YAMZON

Jessica Yamzon was named an assistant coach on the Mountaineer gymnastics staff in August 2023.

Yamzon arrived to Morgantown following a year as the assistant coach at Illinois State. Prior to that, she also spent time on the Lindenwood and Arkansas staffs. The Las Vegas, Nevada, native will assist the Mountaineers on the coaching of all four events.

During her time at Illinois State, Yamzon helped coach the Redbirds to a 2023 Midwest Independent Conference Championship title, earned with a program-record score of 196.375. She also guided a pair of athletes to their second consecutive NCAA Regional Championships berth, as Alana Laster and Jaye Mack competed on vault and floor, respectively, at the 2023 NCAA Norman Regional.

Yamzon arrived at Illinois State with familiarity of the MIC following a year-long stint as a volunteer assistant coach at Lindenwood during the 2022 campaign. That year, the Lions earned third at USAG nationals and advanced a student-athlete to the NCAA National Championships, as Gayla Griswold became the first Lion in program history to qualify for the national meet.

Prior to her time at Lindenwood, Yamzon spent one season as a graduate assistant coach at her alma mater, Arkansas, in 2021. That season, the Razorbacks advanced to the NCAA Tuscaloosa Regional Final, narrowly missing a berth into the NCAA Championships with a third-place finish in the regional final.

Her graduate assistantship followed a standout four-year career at Arkansas, in which she was a staple in the all-around lineup. She was just the second freshman in program history to qualify for the NCAA Championships, and she finished her career competing as the leadoff in every event in 45 meets and competing 186 routines as a Razorback.

Academically, Yamzon was a two-time SEC honor roll recipient, while being named a Scholastic All-American by the WCGA in 2019.

Yamzon holds a Bachelor of Science in human development and family sciences and a Master of Education, both from the University of Arkansas.

2024 SEASON PREVIEW

Following the squad’s 43rd appearance in the NCAA Regional Championships and its first 197.0+ score since 2004, the West Virginia University gymnastics team returns to competition for the 2024 campaign.

The Mountaineers will celebrate the 50-year anniversary of the WVU gymnastics program in 2024, with the team’s varsity status dating back to 1974. In celebration of this milestone, West Virginia fans can expect in-meet elements throughout the 2024 season, including guest appearances and recognitions, recap videos and features, giveaways and so much more.

This season, West Virginia is set to host five home meets, including the return of the fan-favorite Beauty and the Beast meet in conjunction with the WVU wrestling team.

The 2024 campaign officially kicks off on Sunday, Jan. 7, with the Mountaineers opening the season at home for the first time since 2021. WVU will play host to Temple at 2 p.m. ET, inside the WVU Coliseum in Morgantown.

Here’s what you need to know heading into the new campaign:

• Fifth-year senior Abbie Pierson returns to the squad this year for her final collegiate season, boasting 1,416.65 career points. She finished 2023 second on the team in season points and podium appearances.

• In addition to Pierson, the Mountaineers are led by two other seniors this year: Ellen Collins and Kiana Lewis.

• Pierson is the most experienced gymnast on the roster, having competed in 48 meets in four seasons at WVU. • Lewis will look to surpass the 1,000-career point threshold this season, while juniors Brooke Alban and Anna Leigh are nearing the 500-career point plateau.

• West Virginia is led by 13th-year head coach Jason Butts. He is assisted by associate head coach Travis Doak, who enters his 16th season with the program and 10th as the associate head coach.

• Six freshmen look to make their Mountaineer career debuts this season: Kaylei Adams, Julia Brown, Jurnee Lane, Amber Lowe, Jayden McDonnell and Ashton Meuret

• Assistant head coach Zaakira Muhammad, a former All-American at WVU, enters her fourth campaign as a member of the coaching staff.

• West Virginia is scheduled to compete against all three of its Big 12 Conference foes this season, including league newcomer BYU. WVU opens its Big 12 slate against the Cougars, traveling to Provo, Utah, on Friday, Feb. 2.

• Joining the coaching staff this season is assistant coach Jessica Yamzon, who arrived in Morgantown in August of 2023 after spending one season at Illinois State.

• The Mountaineers return to competition following a 12-9 season and third-place finish at the Big 12 Championship in 2023. WVU reached a seasonhigh total of 197.325 on March 5, its highest score since 2004. The squad surpassed the 197.0 threshold for the first time since 2004, as well as the first time in Butts’ tenure • Ten of the 12 Mountaineers returning to the 2024 squad earned time in at least one lineup last season, with nine reaching the podium.

In 1974, gymnastics, basketball and tennis began intercollegiate competition as the first three women’s varsity sports at West Virginia University.

Linda Burdette-Good 37 Seasons • 1975‑2011 • Record: 644-263-4 Only the second coach in the history of West Virginia gymnastics, Burdette-Good constantly worked to upgrade the Mountaineer program. She took the program from its infancy as a member of the West Virginia Conference in the AIAW all the way to the NCAA Championships. The WVU alumna coached All‑Americans Janàe Cox, Lajuanda Moody, Kristin Quackenbush and Shari Retton and was named the 1995 NCAA Southeast Regional Coach of the Year. In 2004, she eclipsed the 500-win milestone, and in 2009, she amassed over 600 victories, making her the all-time winningest Mountaineer coach with a WVU team. She retired in 2011 after 37 highly successful and memorable seasons.

8 Seasons • 2012 - Present • Record: 110-77-1 Elevated to the head coach position after serving five years as an assistant under 37-year coach Linda Burdette-Good, Butts is determined to put the West Virginia University gymnastics team back on the national state. Following a fantastic first season that saw the Mountaineers secure their first 20-win season since 2008 and earn their league-best seventh EAGL title, Butts guided WVU though a difficult 2013 schedule in its first season in the Big 12 Conference. That WVU team became the first squad in the program’s history to tally 196.0 or better in every home regular-season meet.

Mountaineer Gymnastics

CHAMPIONSHIP APPEARANCES 1982 AIAW CHAMPIONSHIPS

West Virginia hosted the NCAA Region 6 Championships at the WVU Coliseum, which assembled five of the top-25 teams in the country, including No. 2 Alabama. The Mountaineers showcased their most brilliant talent at this meet and attained a 195.275 team score, placing them second in their region behind Alabama and qualifying them for their second trip to the national championship in five years.

Led by unheralded freshman Shari Retton from Fairmont, West Virginia, the 1982 gymnastics team surprised the country by finishing third at the AIAW Championships in Memphis, Tennessee. Coach Linda Burdette’s Mountaineers, at the University’s first-ever national championships, finished behind first-place Florida and runner-up Alabama, and ahead of national powerhouses Georgia, Ohio State, Brigham Young and Washington State, among others.

Although the Mountaineers placed 12th at the NCAA Championship in Salt Lake City, Utah, coach Linda Burdette had plenty of reasons to be proud of her squad. Five WVU gymnasts earned all-EAGL notice and for the fourth consecutive season, the Mountaineers were undefeated in the Coliseum in regular season competition. One of the most significant of those wins came on Feb. 20, when the Mountaineers defeated Minnesota and North Carolina State, giving Burdette the 400th and 401st victories of her career.

She became the fourth coach in school history to reach that milestone.

Retton captured First Team All-America honors on vault, uneven parallel bars, floor exercise and the all-around.

WVU qualified for the championships by winning the EAIAW Regional at Clarion State. The Mountaineers scored 139.25 points to edge Yale’s 138.35. That title is still WVU’s only regional championship.

The 1982 season saw 18 wins against seven losses.

The biggest win of the season was a 142.30-142.10 victory against eventual national champion Florida, a meet that WVU won on the last gymnast of the last rotation. The 142.30 points was a school record at the time. Also during the 1982 season, West Virginia beat Duke, Kentucky, North Carolina, North Carolina State, Maryland and Pitt.

A side note to the season were Retton’s ties to the athletic world. Her younger sister, Mary Lou, went on to become an Olympic Gold Medalist. Her father, Ronnie, played basketball for the Mountaineers from 1957-59.

After winning four letters and graduating, Retton later married Mike Timko, a former Mountaineer quarterback (1985-87).

The 1982 season was WVU’s last year in the AIAW after a nine‑year association. The Mountaineers began NCAA competition with the 1983 season.

1995 NCAA CHAMPIONSHIPS After years of being on the outside looking in, the 1995 WVU gymnastics team took it to the next level with an at‑large bid to the 1995 NCAA Championships in Athens, Georgia. The senior‑led group found the right mix of talent, desire, experience and coaching and put it all together when it counted - at the NCAA Southeast Regional.

In fact, the whole season was something magical. Ten team records were set or tied throughout the course of the year, while five individual marks were reached.

The 15‑6 Mountaineers won their fourth straight Atlantic 10 title and Karla Hairston and Kristin Quackenbush were named Atlantic 10 Gymnasts of the Year, while Umme Salim garnered A10 Freshman of the Year honors.

Coach Linda Burdette was named the NCAA Southeast Regional Coach of the Year. Freshman Adriana Manago earned NACGC/W scholastic All‑America

Senior Nikki West punctuated her stellar vaulting career with two more perfect 10.0s in 1999. West scored five 10.0s on vault, tying her with former WVU gymnast Kristin Quakenbush for the most perfect scores in school history.

The most rewarding accomplishment of the 1995 season was that WVU’s three seniors, Liz Byrnes, Jenni Kaye and Shannon Migli, overcame injuries that plagued them their first three years in Morgantown to become major contributors in WVU’s run to the championships.

1999 NCAA CHAMPIONSHIPS What appeared initially as a tragedy for the 1999 West Virginia gymnastics team was actually an awakening. The Mountaineers had attained a 17-2 record prior to the East Atlantic Gymnastics League meet and entered the meet as one of only three schools from the EAGL ranked in the top 25. For the first time since the inception of the EAGL in 1996, the Mountaineers failed to win the EAGL crown in 1999.

But, despite finishing an uncharacteristic sixth at the EAGL Championships at Maryland, the Mountaineers couldn’t have scripted a more opportune time to amend that setback, regroup and really let their true colors show at the NCAA Regionals held before their home crowd.

2000 NCAA CHAMPIONSHIPS From the very start, those around the 2000 gymnastics team knew this team would be a special one.

Focused around some exciting newcomers, and perhaps the most storied senior class in school history, the Mountaineers were destined to rewrite the WVU record book.

West Virginia posted a 19-10 record and established four of the top 10 team scores in school history, including three of the top four. The Mountaineers also set school event records on the vault and beam and tied the school mark on bars. But despite its record-setting season, WVU struggled at the EAGL Championships, finishing a disappointing fifth.

With a sour taste in their mouths, the 2000 Mountaineers were determined to do what no other WVU team had done before - earn a trip to the NCAA Championships for a second straight season.

To do that, West Virginia had to finish in the top two

slots at the Region 2 Championship meet in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Not an easy task considering the competition, which included No. 3 Utah and top 25 teams Denver and Minnesota.

The Mountaineers, largely behind the efforts of seniors Kelly Foley and Danielle Lilly, managed to scrap and claw their way to a second-place finish.

West Virginia proved its shaky performance at the EAGL meet to be an aberration by simply being more consistent than the opposition and earning a trip to the NCAA Championship in Boise, Idaho.

Although the Mountaineers finished in 12th place, the 2000 season stands out as one where WVU showed tremendous determination and heart.

The individual talent was amazing, but it was how the 2000 Mountaineers jelled together that made the West Virginia coaching staff the proudest.

Sophomore Kristen Macrie proved to be the heart and soul of the team and was WVU’s most consistent gymnast throughout the year. Despite not leading the

TM

team in any individual event, Macrie’s consistency was her calling card for the season.

The freshman class, which was called the best recruiting class ever by coaches in the preseason, lived up to its billing, with TeShawne Jackson and Dinorh Boyd turning in numerous top five finishes, while Amanda Halovanic found her niche for the Mountaineers on vault and floor.

But the 2000 season will forever be linked to its senior class of Foley, Lilly, Shirley Lee and Jessica Nonnemacher. Foley and Lilly provided much of the leadership, with each enjoying her finest season as a Mountaineer. Lee saw her season cut short at the midway point, but her early season performances provided the underclassmen with the opportunity to find their stride. One of the lasting images of the 2000 season will be of Nonnemacher, who despite being told by doctors in 1998 that her career was over, returned to compete on bars.

WVU’S 2000 NCAA TEAM Front Row: TeShawne Jackson, Jessica Rohm, Kelly Foley, Shirley Lee and Dinorh Boyd; Second Row: Jen Cooper, Danielle Lilly, Jessica Nonnemacher, Kristen Muirhead and Erin Signoracci; Third Row: Kristen Macrie, Allison Pratus and Melissa Mascaro; Back Row: Allison Gaidish, Jaime Hill, Amanda Halovanic and Christen Simpson.

SHARI RETTON 1982-85

Shari Retton Timko was WVU’s first women’s sports All-American, earning first-team honors in the all-around, floor exercise, uneven bars and vault at the 1982 AIAW National Gymnastics Championships in Memphis, Tennessee.

A four-year letterwinner from Fairmont, West Virginia, Retton helped the 10th-seeded Mountaineers finish third at the 1982 national championships, posting a third-place individual finish in the all-around (36.30) as a freshman. Retton, a two-time team captain, went on to earn a number of accolades, including NCAA regional balance beam champion, Most Valuable Gymnast and Atlantic 10 Senior of the Year. WVU qualified for the NCAA Regionals each year during her career. She was inducted into the WVU Sports Hall of Fame in 2001.

The daughter of Ronnie Retton, who captained WVU’s 1959 NCAA runner-up basketball team, she is the older sister of Olympic champion gymnast Mary Lou Retton; their brother Ron played baseball at WVU. Retton, who is married to former WVU quarterback Mike Timko, currently lives in Houston, Pennsylvania.

Jackson competed in 51 career meets (14th all-time), ranks 13th in career points (1,636.95), ranks 14th in program history in career all-around meets (32) and tallied 506.625 points in 2002, the 17h-best season point total in history.

The Brooklyn, New York native, has a gymnastics move named after her, which is recognized in the Code of Points (tour jeté ring ½).

In 2000, Jackson captured the NCAA North Central Regional Championship in floor exercise and was an individual national qualifier in 1999 at Junior Nationals before qualifying as a collegiate gymnast in 2000 and 2002.

WVU VICE PRESIDENT/DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS

WREN BAKER

West Virginia University President E. Gordon Gee named Wren Baker as WVU’s Vice President and Director of Intercollegiate Athletics on Nov. 30, 2022.

WVU’s 13th director of athletics came to Morgantown from the University of North Texas, where he had been the associate vice president and athletics director since 2016. With previous stops at Missouri, Memphis, Northwest Missouri and Rogers State, Baker brought more than 20 years of experience to WVU. Baker has oversight of 18 varsity sports, a department budget of more than $90 million, approximately 250 employees and nearly 500 student-athletes.

In his first year at West Virginia, Baker has hit the ground running and has never looked back.

He has traveled the state to learn its culture, met Mountaineer fans from all over the world, fundraised for his department, addressed budget concerns, put his touches on a new premium club space at the Coliseum and even hired coaches in women’s and men’s basketball. While he is a native Oklahoman, he has certainly been adopted as the newest Mountaineer by West Virginia fans.

As an athletics director, he has now led 20 head coaching searches, and his hires have a combined 75% winning percentage.

At North Texas, seven Mean Green programs (men’s cross country, volleyball, women’s soccer, football, men’s basketball, women’s golf and softball) combined to win 17 conference or division championships during Baker’s tenure, and the overall athletics department’s winning percentage in the last year was the best in the modern era. In 2019, every Mean Green team achieved a winning season for the first time in school history.

UNT also reached new heights in the classroom under Baker’s leadership, posting its top APR scores and four consecutive department Graduation Success Rate (GSR) records. For the first time ever, every Mean Green team recorded a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher with the Spring 2022 department GPA hitting a 3.206 average.

Baker led record fundraising years at North Texas as the school registered its four best fundraising years in its history, and the overall top five largest gifts ever at UNT came under Baker’s leadership.

He guided North Texas athletics to a school record for fundraising in a single year, nearly doubling the previous department record.

UNT ticket revenue increased by 125% under Baker, and football attendance grew by 71%, while men’s and women’s basketball crowds grew by more than 60%. Additional achievements at North Texas included a five-year strategic plan, new 20-year

facilities master plan and lucrative contracts for multimedia rights, licensing, apparel and equipment.

Baker also led the charge to renovate eight different UNT athletic facilities, while spearheading the design and fundraising for three new facilities including a track and field/soccer stadium, golf practice facility and an indoor practice building.

One of the biggest moments in the history of North Texas Athletics came under his watch, when UNT was invited to join the American Athletic Conference beginning in July 2023.

Prior to North Texas, Baker was the deputy director of athletics at Missouri from 2015 to 2016, serving as the top advisor and chief of staff. He was responsible for assisting with all aspects of administration and led the external unit, helping Mizzou to a record fundraising year. He also served as the interim director of athletics at Missouri before moving on to North Texas.

Before Missouri, he spent time at Memphis from 2013-15 as deputy athletics director. He secured the largest gift in the university’s history as Memphis posted its best fundraising year ever.

While setting a school record for fundraising, major gifts and multimedia rights revenue, Baker also grew Memphis’ scholarship fund, was the sport administrator for men’s basketball and worked closely with football during a two-year run that included the Tigers’ first conference championship in football in more than four decades.

From 2011-13, Baker was athletics director at NCAA Division II power Northwest Missouri State, where he secured the largest gift in the

athletics department’s history for improvements to the football stadium. Under Baker, Northwest Missouri saw its revenues increase by 60%, and he hired head football coach Adam Dorrel, who led the Bearcats to three consecutive national championships.

From 2006-11, Baker served as the first athletics director at Rogers State in Claremore, Oklahoma, where he was also the school’s first men’s basketball coach. His team went 20-11 in his only season at the helm, and RSU teams combined to post a nearly 70% winning percentage despite being a start-up athletic program. During his tenure, Baker developed a full-scale collegiate athletics program.

In 2005, he was the principal and athletics director for Valliant Public Schools and, at age 26, was the youngest principal in Oklahoma history.

Originally fom Valliant, Oklahoma, Baker earned his bachelor’s degree in education from Southeastern Oklahoma State in 2001 where he was a member of the honors program. He went on to earn his master’s degree in education leadership from Oklahoma State in 2003.

While at Oklahoma State, Baker was a graduate assistant and basketball operations assistant for the Cowboys’ men’s basketball program under legendary head coach Eddie Sutton. During Baker’s time with OSU, the Cowboys posted a 102-30 record, reaching four NCAA tournaments, and advanced to the 2004 Final Four and the 2005 Sweet Sixteen.

Baker and his wife, Heather, a Bokchito, Oklahoma, native, have two daughters, Addisyn and Reagan.
