player at the net and in the backrow.

\4 SEASON IN REVIEW

TAKEPRISONERS The University of Memphis Lady Tiger volleyball team

completed the 1994 campaign with not only a winning record,27-8, but a Great Midwest Conference regular season andchampionship title.

As well, the Lady Tigers participated in the prestigiousNCAA Tournament for the first time in school history.

In first round action, The University of Memphis was sentto the West Coast to face San Diego State, the number fiveseed in the NCAA West Region.

Despite the odds, the Lady Tigers handed the Aztecs a 15-7 loss in the first game of the best-of-five match.

After the Lady Tigers took a 6-2 lead in the second game,SDSU took a timeout and made the necessary adjustmentsthat would cause the collapse of The U of M.

San Diego State, led by Juliana Cezars' and GingerErnest, got on target and swept the next three games from theLady Tigers, 15-6, 15-5, 15-9.

Junior Monique Swaby led the Lady Tigers with 21 kills.However, senior Renee Ross had 19 kills, a team-high .385 killpercentage and a match-high 14 digs.

"I was extremely proud of the way the team played," saidfourth-year Lady Tiger head coach Penny Lucas-White. "Theynever gave up, and played with a lot of intensity right up untilthe end."

Despite the loss, the future looks bright for Lucas-Whiteand the Lady Tiger volleyball program.

"This has been a great season for us. I give a lot of creditto the team because they knew what their goals were, and theywent after them," explained Lucas-White. "We wanted to win aconference title, and we did. We wanted to go to the NCAATournament, and we did."

After winning their season opening tournament, the Mem-phis Sports Invitational, the Lady Tigers took second place intheir second tournament of the season, the Graphic SystemsClassic. The U of M lost to Stephen F. Austin, a team that wenton to compete in the NCAA Tournament, in the championshipmatch.

After that loss the Lady Tigers lost five of their next sixmatches.

Could history repeat itself?During the 1991 season, The University of Memphis

volleyball team lost to Mississippi State, and then went on towin 15 straight matches.

This past season, the Lady Tigers lost to Mississippi Stateand then went on to win a school record 20 straight matches.

During that 20-match win streak, the Lady Tigers captured

their second straight Great Midwest Conference regular sea-son title going 12-0.

At the Great Midwest Conference Championship Tourna-ment in Dayton, Ohio, the Lady Tigers did not lose a game intheir quest for the title.

The team's motto for the tournament was, "Take NoPrisoners."

According to Lucas-White, she told her team that duringthe 1993 conference tournament, in which they lost in the semi-finals, the Lady Tigers had carried those scars too long. Lucas-White did not want her team to be a prisoner to the heart-feltloss they had incurred in 1993.

The U of M beat Saint Louis in semi-final round action, 15-4, 15-10, 15-12. In the championship match, the Lady Tigersbeat defending GMC champions DePaul, 15-11, 15-2, 15-7.

That conference title was not only the first Great Midwestchampionship for the Lady Tiger volleyball team, but the first-ever conference title for a U of M volleyball squad.

During the GMC Tournament, Lady Tiger head coachPenny Lucas-White was named Coach of the Year for thesecond consecutive season.

Swaby, a 6-0 middle blocker, was named the Player of theYear, while sophomore setter Nikki Taylor earned first-teamAll-Conference, and freshman Shoni Hodges was named tothe All-Newcomer team.

CONFERENCE USAConference USA(C-USA), the nation's newest Division I-

A intercollegiate athletic conference, was unveiled at a pressconference on April 24, 1995 at Harry Caray's Restaurant inChicago, IL. Dr. V. Lane Rawlins, president of the University ofMemphis and chair of Conference USA's Board of Directors,made the announcement.

C-USA is comprised of 12 universities that span across12 states in the U.S. Conference USA includes six institutionsfrom the Great Midwest Conference, five from the Metro Con-ference, and one from the Southwest Conference. Eleven ofthose schools will begin athletic participation in 1995-96. Con-ference USA, which will sponsor 18 championship sports, willbegin Division I-A football competition in the fall of 1996.

Beginning competition in 1995-96 will be the University ofAlabama at Birmingham (UAB), the University of Cincinnati(UC), De Paul University (DU), Marquette University (MU),the University of Memphis (UofM) and Saint Louis University(SLU) from the Great Midwest, along with the University ofLouisville (UL), the University of North Carolina at Charlotte(UNC Charlotte), the University of South Florida (USF), theUniversity of Southern Mississippi (USM), and Tulane Univer-sity (TU) from the Metro. The University of Houston willcom-pete in the Southwest Conference's final year and will partici-pate in Conference USA competition beginning in 1996-97.

Conference USA will sponsor championship competitionfor the following men's sports: baseball, basketball, crosscoun-try, football, golf, soccer, tennis, and track and field (indoorand outdoor). C-USA will sponsor the following women's cham-pionships: basketball, cross country, golf, soccer, tennis, trackand field (indoor and outdoor), and volleyball. Rifle will be spon-sored as a combined sport.

Michael L. Slive, who served as commissioner of the GreatMidwest Conference for four years, was selected as the firstcommissioner of Conference USA by the presidents of the 12institutions. Slive, who has extensive administrative and legalbackground in intercollegiate athletics, was instrumental indeveloping a comprehensive television package for the GreatMidwest which included more than 40 national television men'sbasketball appearances per year. In 1994-95, the Great Mid-west had more than 60 national television appearances. Slivealso helped establish a syndicated women's basketball televi-sion package the past two seasons.

"Conference USA has a very bright future. This leaguehas the opportunity to capitalize on its great men's andwomen's basketball tradition while developing a competitiveDivision I-A football championship," said Slive. "ConferenceUSA will also have the ability to enhance sports other thanbasketball and football, as well as have an impact on the na-tional governance of intercollegiate athletics."

In 1996, six member institutions (Cincinnati, Houston,Louisville, Memphis, Southern Miss, and Tulane) will competefor the first C-USA football championship. Each school willplay five conference games. Discussions are continuing re-garding the champion of Conference USA earning an auto-matic bowl bid. C-USA also has a five-year football televisioncontract with Liberty Sports.

During the 1990s, the six football playing members havecombined for the following: three Top 25 finishes, three bowlappearances, seven wins against Top 25 opponents, two teamsposting the best records in school history, one institution post-ing its best record since 1976, one team recording threestraight winning seasons, one institution selling out each of itshome games for two straight seasons, 11 AP Ail-Americanselections, five academic All-American selections, five firstround NFL draft picks and one NFL Pro Bowl selection.

In men's basketball, Conference USA will be comprisedof three divisions (Red, White and Blue). The 1996 men's bas-ketball championship will be held March 6-9 at The Pyramidin Memphis, while the 1997 championship tournament is slatedfor Freedom Hall in Louisville, KY.

TIGER TRADITIONSWHY TIGERS?

When The University of Memphisfirst fielded a football team in the fall of1912, no one had selected a nicknamefor the squad.

Early references to the football teamtabbed them only as the Blue and GrayWarriors of West Tennessee NormalSchool.

After the final game of the 1914 sea-son, there was a student parade. Dur-ing this event, several Normal studentsshouted, "We fight like Tigers." The nick-name was born.

More and more the nickname "Ti-gers" was used, particularly in campuspublications. But it did not catch on withthe newspapers downtown. They contin-ued to use "Normals" or the "Blue andGray" when referring to the University.

Under coach Lester Barnard in1922, Normal's football team gave a ringof truth to that old student yell about Ti-gers. The team adopted a motto - "Ev-ery Man A Tiger" and went on to score174 points while allowing their opponentsjust 29 points.

In the late 1920s, student publica-tions and downtown newspapers beganreferring to the football team as the"Teachers" or "Tutors." The Tiger nick-name would return. But not until 1939was it finally adopted as the official nick-name for The University of Memphis.

A BENGAL FOR A MASCOTFor approximately 22 years, the

sideline mascot for The University ofMemphis athletics has been the BengalTiger. TOM II, the name of the currentmascot, puts in personal appearancesat all Tiger football games as well as nu-merous basketball games. TOM II hasalso been seen at Tiger baseball, soc-cer and women's basketball games.

The first tiger, purchased by theHighland Hundred football booster groupin 1972, lived for 20 years and washoused at the Memphis Zoo. TOM diedin February of 1992.

The story of how the first Tiger cubarrived in Memphis is quite interesting.On November 9, 1972, the baby tigerwas placed in a dog kennel in Michigan

Cleveland Drennon,an attorney and president of the High-land Hundred, approved a check for$1,500 to buy the animal, and TOM wastaken to athletic director Billy Murphy'soffice for a press conference.

In ceremonies at Liberty Bowl Me-morial Stadium, the Highland Hundredofficially presented TOM to the Univer-sity on November 11,1972.

The zookeeper, at the suggestion ofhis daughter, called the little tiger Shane.Once in Memphis, however, a contestwas held to name the mascot. More than2,500 entries came in to a committeechaired by Judge Harry Pierotti. The listran from Spook, Sampson, Goliath,Bengo, Sultan, Sahib, Big Cat, Ptah,Touchdown, Sonny, and Shiloh to BengieWougie Bengal Boy from Tennessee.

Finally, the judges reduced the listto two: Shane and TOM, for Tigers ofMemphis. TOM won.

During his first few months in Mem-phis, Bill Proctor housed the tiger in hisgarage, which was redecorated by theHighland Hundred. TOM was guarded byProctor's hound dog.

TOM II came to The University ofMemphis in the fall of 1992 and is housedat his new home at Nixon Farms in

SCHOOL COLORSThe University of Memphis' official

school colors of Royal Blue and Graywere selected in the early 1900s.

The colors were chosen in an effortto show unity in a nation that was stillrecovering from the effects of the CivilWar. The student body thought that bypicking the colors of the North and theSouth, the school would show a togeth-erness among all students.

THE LOGOThe University of Memphis' official
