6 | Rebel VolleYball 2010 17 aLL-sec seLecTIONs

The Rebel volleyball team takes the court for the 2010 season with a squad that possesses innate athleticism and young talent with a smattering of up-perclassmen to lead the way.

With only two seniors and a pair of juniors on the squad of 14, it’s a scenario that might leave some immediately thinking of the season as a rebuilding year, but a deeper look shows that the pieces are actually in place for the squad to make a successful run.

In the senior class, the Rebels return middle blocker Miranda Kitts and setter Emily Kvitle; while the junior class boasts another middle blocker in Re-gina Thomas and libero Morgan Springer. Combined, the four upperclassmen have played in 241 matches and bring valuable game experience to the floor to lead the upcoming campaign.

“I think we’re more talented than we’ve ever been,” said Ole Miss head coach Joe Getzin. “Ex-perience wise, we’re very young. The thing that has stood out the most has been the leadership of the upperclassmen. I don’t think I’ve had a group take charge as much as they did during the summer and in practice. They are holding people accountable on the court and letting people know it’s not personal, but everyone has to be disciplined.”

Among the 10 freshmen and sophomores who are expected to take the court for the Rebels this fall, five return with a year of experience under their belts. That year of experience has really shown in preseason workouts as the squad prepares for the new season.

“We had a large class of freshmen last year and joked throughout the spring wondering when they would finally become sophomores,” Getzin said.

“The freshman year is rough and you get thrown into the fire right away. It takes some time to acclimate, but they are finally sophomores. We have another large recruiting class with five newcomers – three freshman and two transfers.

“The true freshman class we brought in is very strong physically; they just need a lot of repeti-tions.”

Among the group of five newcomers, the Rebels welcome three true freshmen and a pair of transfers that include sophomore setter Amanda Philpot – who led her team to the NAIA national championship match a year ago at Georgetown College – and red-shir t freshman Kiley Sherman – who comes to Ole Miss from Baylor where she was a part of the 14th-ranked recruiting class in the nation a year ago.

That influx of new talent, combined with the re-turning nine players, have the coaching staff and Rebel fans excited for the future.

MIDDLe BLOcKeRs

It all starts up front for the Rebels in 2010 with the position that easily boasts the deepest and most experienced lineup – middle blocker. Returning are the block leaders from a year ago – senior Miranda Kitts and junior Regina Thomas. Thomas led the way with 98 blocks (15 BS, 83 BA), while Kitts turned in 89 blocks and led the way with 20 solo blocks on the season.

Thomas – an All-SEC Freshman Team selection in 2008 - also leads all returning players in attack percentage as she connected for 210 kills at a .264 clip a year ago. Kitts also proved to be a potent part of the Rebel offense last season as she put down

178 kills. The duo of blockers are second and third amongst returning players in kill totals a year ago, illustrating the load they are expected to carry in the 2010 season.

“Middle blocker is definitely our strong suit right now,” Getzin said. “Miranda and Regina really lead the way and Courtney (Cunningham) falls into that category as well. The three of them bought into working hard over the summer on their own.

“It’s awesome to have that kind of mentality from your middles where they want you to just give them the ball. We have three kids who all touch over 10 feet and are tall and agile. They have a lot more upper body strength and are putting a lot of pace on the ball.”

Cunningham, a freshman a year ago, has also shown the versatility and athleticism to fill several roles and could be counted on to play at middle blocker, outside hitter and on the right side. The sophomore put down 73 kills a year ago and came on strong late in the season, turning in her best match against Georgia in the final weekend.

Against the Bulldogs, Cunningham displayed her skills with a .750 hitting percentage as she put down 16 kills to go along with three blocks, three digs and two service aces.

Rounding out the Rebel blockers this year is freshman Brenea White, a 6-1 middle from Humble, Texas.

White garnered first team All-District honors at Humble High School as a senior and claimed second team All-District honors as a junior. She was an hon-orable mention selection as both a sophomore and a freshman.

OuTsIDe HITTeR

The Rebel offense moves from what is arguably its deepest position at middle blocker to undoubted-ly the youngest position when it comes to the outside hitters. The Rebels return one player with significant starting experience at the position in sophomore Whitney Craven.

A 2009 All-Freshman selection by SEC Coaches a year ago, Craven put down 218 kills in her first cam-paign with the Rebels and leads all returners in the category. The heavy-hitting athlete sat out a handful of matches with injury early in the year, but finished the season strong and claimed SEC Freshman of the Week honors in the final weekend of play.

That weekend, she helped lead the Rebels to a win over Arkansas in the season finale with 13 kills and a season-high 22 digs. She posted 12 double-digit kill performances with a season-high 20 coming in a win over Alabama. She also tallied double-digit digs in seven matches.

“Whitney has improved and had a good spring with a great match against Texas,” Getzin said. “The thing we’ve gotten from her is a lot more steadiness. There isn’t as much up and down. She knows what to expect having been down this road once before. We’re looking forward to watching her play.”

Also returning at outside hitter is sophomore Ashley Anderson. The Texas native saw limited play-ing time in her freshman campaign, but has shown strides over the summer as she has continued to put in work at the gym. Joining her is transfer Kiley Sherman, who comes to the Rebels after a redshirt season at Baylor in 2009.

“All of our hitters have played their positions for a while now,” Getzin said. “Ashley Anderson also had a good match against Texas this spring and knows

what she is capable of doing. Kiley Sherman didn’t get to play at Baylor last year because of injury, but comes from a good club program and has a lot of experience.

Sherman was a part of Baylor’s 14th-ranked re-cruiting class a year ago. The hitter was a three-time All-Area selection and a two-time All-Conference se-lection out of Oswego East High School in Oswego, Ill. She also served as captain of her high school squad for three seasons.

A pair of true freshmen also join the ranks of the outside hitters. Kellie Goss and Kara Morgan round out the position and bring additional size and athleti-cism to the spot.

Goss comes to Ole Miss from Forest Park High

School in Manassas, Va., where she was an All-State selection two times in high school and helped lead her high school to the semifinals of the state cham-pionship. Morgan was a four-time All-State selec-tion and was named the state Player of the Year in 2008.

“Kellie Goss is a big, strong athlete with a heavy arm. She’s just learning the position after playing more middle in high school and club. Kara Morgan has that knack for picking things up and just getting things done. She has a cannon of an arm.”

Both freshmen possess tremendous athleticism that is expected to help them make the transition to the college game quickly. Goss was a four sport athlete in high school, also competing in lacrosse, track and soccer. Morgan also played basketball and softball.

RIGHT sIDe

On the right side of the court, sophomore Al-legra Wells will be expected to anchor the offense following the loss of four year starter Caitlin Weiss to graduation. It’s a big role to fill, but one that the gifted athlete is capable of stepping into quickly.

Wells got valuable experience in her freshman campaign as she played behind the senior. She put down 51 kills and 34 blocks on the year (4 BS, 30 BA) with her best performances coming against Ten-nessee and Mississippi State with seven kills in both matches.

With the year of experience and a full off-season of work, Wells will be looked to for big production this year.

“Allegra is arguably one of the best athletes in the SEC,” Getzin said. “She has really matured as a player and finally realized what she possessed last

year. I think a big moment for her was going home and playing for her club team. She came back and had a great summer workout and really improved skill wise. She’s putting forth a great deal of effort to continue to improve. She’s just fun to watch.

“At times, because of her athleticism, she’s im-possible to stop. She’s also very frustrating to play against because she’s such an intimidating block.”

Wells isn’t the only option on the right side, how-ever, as the coaching staff has also played sopho-more Courtney Cunningham and freshman Kellie Goss on the right side in practice to give the squad more options in the offense.

“We’ll probably move one of our outsides,” Getzin said. “Kellie Goss has been playing some on the right side and we’ve played Courtney Cunning-ham over there a little bit. Courtney is a player who is going to do whatever it takes to get on the floor and be successful.”

The Rebels have a solid duo returning on the back row in starting libero Morgan Springer and sophomore Ashley Veach. The experienced pair will anchor the defensive efforts of the Rebels in 2010.

Springer paced the Rebels in digs a year ago from the libero position, coming up with 429 digs on the season and averaged almost four digs per set. She posted double digit digs in 22 matches and passed the 20 dig mark in seven matches with a career-high 27 digs in matches against UAB and at Georgia. Springer also made her presence felt at the service line, coming up with 17 aces, second most

on the team a year ago.Veach bolstered the back row defense as a

freshman in 2009, playing in 26 matches and draw-ing seven starts. In her first season with the Rebels, she tallied 117 digs and averaged 1.50 digs per set while also proving to be a solid server with 12 ser-vice aces on the year.

The combined experience of the two will be huge for Ole Miss in 2010 as the pair are the only two players on the team dedicated to the back row.

“Any time you have someone back who has a year starting under her belt, you’re in good shape,” Getzin said. “She’s very confident in her role and brings a ton of experience with her. For her, it’s about trusting herself and relaxing in her role so she can get better. She’s very hard on herself.

“Ashley Veach is a gritty competitor. She finds a way to get things done. She’s grown up and matured over the summer. She’s much more comfortable competing at this level.”

The position of setter could hold the most an-swers when it comes to the success achieved by the Rebels in 2010. With a senior and a sophomore, it wouldn’t normally be thought of us a “young” po-sition. But in many ways, the position is relatively young.

Returning to the lineup is Emily Kvitle, a senior who has been a yeoman of sorts in her career as she has played three positions in her time with the Red and Blue. A year ago, Kvitle made the transition from back row to setter, splitting time in the starting

role.As a setter in 2009, Kvitle came up with a team-

leading 578 assists and averaged 6.49 assists per set. She also put down 20 kills and came up with 165 digs as the versatile athlete settled into her new role with the team.

With a year under her belt, the Rebels are ex-pecting big things from the senior who possesses an incomparable work ethic.

“Emily has been a utility player and developed into a very nice setter,” Getzin said. “She’s put in a ton of time with the position and it really shows. What separates her from others is her willpower and her competitive spirit. Now that she feels comfort-able she is really showing how competitive and ca-gey she is.

“I think a year of having setting experience has really helped her. She is much more comfortable running the offense and that will help greatly. It’s tough to be thrown into your third role, but she’s always accepted doing whatever it takes to make her team successful. She’s a bright kid and has a good volleyball IQ. Setting is a very skilled position that takes a lot of repetition. She is very committed and we’ve seen tremendous growth in her.”

Joining Kvitle at the setter position is sophomore transfer Amanda Philpot. Philpot comes to the Reb-els after a freshman season at Georgetown College where she helped lead her team to the NAIA Na-tional Championship Match, finishing as the national runner-up. She was also an All-Conference selection in her season at Georgetown College.

“Amanda comes to us as a true setter, having played the position her whole life,” Getzin said.

SeaSon outlook

“She’s a little smaller, but I’ve been impressed that her size isn’t a factor. She plays big at the net and is a very experienced setter. I think she’s caught up to the speed of our game, and it’s been a seamless transition for her.”

For the second straight season, the Rebels have experienced a change on the coaching staff with the arrival of Shannon Wells in Oxford. Wells takes a po-sition with Ole Miss after Molly Alvey left to become the head coach at the University of Houston. Wells joined the staff after a stint at Winthrop where she coached for three seasons before taking the position with the Rebels.

At Winthrop, Wells helped lead the Eagles to a conference championship and a 20-win season. She helped guide Winthrop to the Big South Champion-ship in 2007 and also worked with two Big South Player of the Year selections in Shannon Sitzmann and Kelley Taylor.

She is the second addition to the coaching staff in as many years. Bill Egbert, now in his second sea-son, joined the Rebels prior to the 2009 campaign after working with the volleyball program at the Uni-versity of Nebraska.

“While the staff is young, they both bring very good experience to the table. Bill Egbert has his years at Nebraska with a very high level of volley-ball. Shannon Wells has always known she wanted to be a coach and has had some great mentors as she’s come up through the coaching ranks. Both have brought new ideas to the table and are helping the program grow.”

Every year, the Rebels enter the season with a challenging preseason schedule designed with two primary goals in mind – to expose the team to sev-eral styles of play, while building the confidence and experience needed to compete in the rugged South-eastern Conference.

The 2010 schedule is no different as Ole Miss will take to the road for a pair of tournaments at Rice and Northwestern before returning home to host the annual Magnolia Invitational at the Gillom Center.

In the season opening tournament at Rice, the Rebels will face UT-San Antonio, Texas Tech and Rice. In the second weekend of play at Northwestern, Ole Miss will face off against the host team, Utah and Morehead State.

“UT-San Antonio is a scrappy team that is small-er than a lot of what the SEC might be used to, but they are a very good ball control team,” Getzin said. “They make you earn every point. Texas Tech is re-building but they have the athletes to compete in the Big 12, which is very similar to the SEC. Rice is a mixture of both of those styles and was very successful last year and they return a senior libero and setter.

“In Chicago we open up with Northwestern, a team I think will be a surprise in the Big 10 this year. Our styles are very similar with similar athletes and I think it should be a good match. We then play a very big Utah team with a lot of height and strength. We’ll see how we adjust to that. We then close out with a Morehead State team that is traditionally very strong in the Ohio Valley Conference.”

When the Rebels return home for the final week-end of play before SEC competition, Ole Miss will play host to Samford, the University of Louisiana and Southern Miss.

“We have Samford who has been finishing in the top three in their conference along with Loui-siana-Lafayette who is rebuilding but always plays extremely hard,” Getzin said. “We then close out our tournament with Southern Miss, who claimed the Conference USA Championship a year ago. I think that will set us up for a good season in the SEC.”

In conference play, the Rebels will play 20 match-es with a round robin format that will see every team play the other 10 teams in the conference twice – one match at home and one match on the road.

Two NCAA Tournament appearances, a pair of All-Region selections and six selections to an All-SEC team .. that’s what Joe Getzin has done over the last four seasons as he has brought Rebel volleyball to the forefront of the SEC in his tenure as head coach.

When Getzin was hired as the sixth head coach of the volleyball program at Ole Miss in 2002, it was with sights fixed on the goal of taking a program that had experienced success in the past and moving it to the next level.

Getzin took the reins of the program with a reputation as a recruiter, a necessary piece of the puzzle to building a program. He hit the ground running, put together an outstand-ing coaching staff and turned recruiting up a notch, filling the roster with athletes that in-clude All-State and All-America selections.

Just a year ago, Getzin pulled in the 23rd-ranked recruiting class in the nation according to PrepVolleyball - the first ranked recruiting

class in Ole Miss history.Eight years after taking control of the

squad, the Rebel volleyball program is coming off two appearances in the NCAA Tournament over the last four years and a pair of record-setting seasons. The pieces of the puzzle are falling into place under Getzin, who has twice been named Southeastern Conference Coach of the Year and a finalist for national Coach of the Year in 2006.

“When we hired Joe eight years ago, our goal was to accomplish exactly what we have seen the past few seasons,” said Lynnette Johnson, Senior Associate Athletics Director. “Our goal was to compete at a high level in the Southeastern Conference, go to the NCAA Tournament and compete for championships. We wanted to put Ole Miss Volleyball on the map. We’re there now, and we are excited about continuing to build on the groundwork laid as we continue to get better.”

“It’s exciting to finally see the hard work paying off.” Getzin said. “When I was hired, I knew Ole Miss had a lot to offer and was truly a diamond in the rough. It’s great to see all of the pieces start falling into place. I look for-ward to continuing to build on that.”

In addition to quality recruiting, the Getzin era has seen facility improvements, increased attendance and excitement at home matches. With these elements in place and a continued commitment from the administration, Getzin and Ole Miss have the foundation laid to sus-tain success.

Most recently, Ole Miss just completed a new renovation to the Gillom Center. The Reb-els moved the court and added 350 chairback seats to completely surround the court and add to the frenzied excitement that has be-come Rebel Volleyball at the Gillom Center.

bacK-to-bacK record seasons

In his first four seasons, Getzin showed fans that the excitement of Ole Miss Volleyball was returning. The fans bought into that and cre-ated a frenzied environment each weekend when the Rebels took the court, supporting the program through the rebuilding stages.

Season five saw that hard work and sup-port from the Oxford and Ole Miss community culminate in one of the best seasons in the program’s 30-year history with the prgram’s first NCAA Tournament appearance in 2006. The fans were rewarded again in 2007 as the Rebels raised the bar once more.

Over the last four seasons, the Rebels have seen the work in laying that foundation pay off.

inistrationUnder Getzin’s tutelage the Rebels have seen three All-SEC selections Jaclyn Toohey (2006) Rachel Kieckhaefer (2007, 2008) as well as three All-Freshman team selections in Whitney Craven (2009), Regina Thomas (2008) and Jackie Jones (2007).

Toohey and Kieckhaefer also earned All-Region honors in 2006 and 2007, respectively, while helping lead the Rebels to back-to-back NCAA Tournament appearances.

In 2007, Ole Miss built on the successes of the 2006 season and posted the program’s first 20-win season since 1989, going 25-8 and earning a second straight NCAA Tourna-ment berth. The season opened with a bang as the Rebels defeated No. 20 Missouri in the first match of the season and never slowed down.

Ole Miss also turned in a spectacular per-formance in conference play, posting a 14-6 record in SEC play to set the school record for conference wins. The Rebels finished third in the overall standings, their best finish since the 1982 season when only six league teams com-peted in the sport.

The Rebels earned a second consecutive NCAA Tournament berth, falling to BYU in the first round to bring an unbelievable season to a close.

For the second straight season, Getzin was named SEC Coach of the Year and Rebel ath-letes earned post-season accolades as Ra-chel Kieckhaefer was named All-SEC second team and Jackie Jones became the first SEC All-Freshman Team selection in school history. Kieckhaefer was also named an All-South Re-gion honorable mention selection.

Under Getzin’s guidance, Ole Miss exploded

on the scene in 2006 as the Rebels finished fifth in the SEC and tied a school record for league wins not seen since 1979. Ole Miss posted a 19-13 record, including a 10-10 mark in the SEC, and the Rebels took down 11th-ranked LSU in the season finale for the program’s first win over a ranked opponent. The signature win of the Getzin era also propelled the team to the program’s first NCAA Tournament berth, as Ole Miss took to the road and faced fifth-seeded Southern California in the opening round of the tournament.

In addition to the win over LSU, Ole Miss also posted a season sweep of Western Division rival Arkansas for the first time in program his-tory. The Rebels also went on to sweep Georgia and Auburn while taking wins over Alabama, Kentucky and South Carolina.

Getzin’s work in the turnaround of the Rebel program did not go unnoticed as he was named SEC Coach of the Year and was tabbed South Region Coach of the Year by the American Vol-leyball Coaches Association. He was also a fi-nalist for National Coach of the Year.

The 2006 season also saw a Rebel earn All-SEC honors for the first time since 2000 as senior captain Jaclyn Toohey was named to the All-SEC second team, marking the first player to receive all-conference honors under Getzin at Ole Miss. Toohey was also named All-South Honorable Mention by the AVCA.

laYing the foUndation at ole miss

After being solidly competitive at home in the first two seasons, the Rebels took to the road and claimed big victories for the program in

the 2004 campaign. Ole Miss claimed a road victory over LSU, the first win in Baton Rouge in almost 10 years, before continuing with a road win over the Kentucky Wildcats. The win over Kentucky on the road was the first for the Rebels over the Wildcats since 1997.

Ole Miss also picked up the program’s first win over Baylor, storming to the Magnolia Invi-tational title with a 3-0 win over the Bears. Se-nior Elena Garcia played her way into the NCAA Record Books in the match as she served 18 consecutive points for the Rebels in a 30-11 game two win.

Getzin has also brought the annual Magnolia Invitational to a level of a premiere tournament with prominent programs like Texas, Missouri, Pittsburgh and NC State making the trip to Ox-ford to compete in the event.

The Rebels have steadily improved perfor-mance in the competitive SEC under Getzin’s leadership. In his first two seasons, the Reb-els posted back-to-back season sweeps over Auburn and arch-rival Mississippi State. The Rebels added to the win total with a 3-2 upset of LSU that saw fans rush the court in celebra-tion. In 2003, the Rebels’ five SEC wins tied the most conference wins for the program since the 1997 season when Ole Miss tallied seven conference victories.

The excitement that is buzzing around Ox-ford and Ole Miss Volleyball has been seen in the fan participation as well. In six seasons un-der Getzin, the Rebels have hosted all of the top five crowds at Ole Miss.

In 2002, Getzin’s first season, more than 1,300 fans turned out to watch Ole Miss take down arch-rival Mississippi State in a 3-0 match. It marked the largest crowd to see a volleyball match at the University of Mississippi in the 28-year history of the program.

In the 2003 season, Getzin added three more to the top-five list with crowds of more than 400 showing up to watch the Rebels de-feat LSU and Mississippi State, while more than 500 fans turned out to watch the Rebels take on the Georgia Bulldogs.

Since that time, the Rebels have continued to shuffle the list as the crowds continue to grow at the Gillom Sports Center.

In Getzin’s first season, the Rebels improved the previous year’s record by four wins and attendance nearly tripled. Fans experienced the excitement of volleyball with the addi-

tion of bleachers behind the court, allowing spectators to be right on top of the action. The squad posted its first sweep of arch-rival Mississippi State since 1997, and the largest crowd (1,378) ever to witness a volleyball match at Ole Miss saw the Rebels down MSU 3-0 on Oct. 16. Individually, junior Elena Gar-cia led the team with 260 kills and 267 digs. She went over 500 in both categories for her career.

Off the court, the Rebels have shown in-credible success in the academic arena. Ole Miss has had 52 selections to the SEC Aca-demic Honor Roll. In addition, since Getzin has taken over the program, 40 members of the squad have made one of the University’s three honor rolls. In 2006, the squad also captured the Chancellor’s Cup for having the highest cu-mulative GPA of any athletic team on campus.

In addition to the Chancellor’s Cup, the team claimed the AVCA/Gameplan Award for the first time in 2006, as a program that boasted a team GPA above the 3.3 mark. Ole Miss was one of only two SEC schools and only 55 in the nation to earn the award. The Rebels followed that up by claiming the award again in 2007 and accomplished the feat for a third-straight season in 2008.

“I am proud of the team for making the grade in the classroom,” Getzin said. “It dem-onstrates their commitment to not only com-peting at the highest level on the court, but in the classroom as well. They will be successful in the future.”

at soUth carolina

Prior to taking the position with the Rebels, Getzin served as the top assistant coach at South Carolina from 2000-2001. At South Carolina, Getzin was responsible for recruit-ing, conditioning and technical training. In 2000, the Gamecocks posted a 22-7 overall record and their best-ever conference record at 12-2 in the SEC. USC was selected to the NCAA Tournament for the fourth time. In 2001, South Carolina finished with a 20-6 overall re-cord, 10-4 in the SEC, and reached the NCAA Tournament for the fifth time in seven years.

He previously served for the Game-cocks from 1993-95 and assisted in recruiting several top players, including Ashley Edlund,

Heather Larkin and Shani Abshier. Larkin and Edlund were named All-SEC four consecutive years, and Abshier was the 1998 Southeast-ern Conference Scholar-Athlete of the Year.

Lynnette Johnson is in her 22nd year with Ole Miss Athletics. Currently she is in her 12th year as a Sport Administrator and Senior Woman Ad-ministrator. She works with the athletics director in overseeing all 10 women’s athletic programs, in addition to men’s track and field, men’s golf and men’s tennis. She also handles multiple internal and external operations involving all sports pro-grams within the department.

dr. daniel W. Jones | CHANCELLOR From an early age, Dr. Daniel W. Jones knew his career as-pirations revolved around medicine and leadership. And while a physician leading a comprehensive university isn’t a common arrangement, Jones’ appointment as the 16th chancellor of the University of Mississippi is no surprise to anyone familiar with his record of leadership and achievements at the UM Medical Center in Jackson and the American Heart Association. Jones became chancellor on July 1, 2009, and oversees the campuses in Oxford, Jackson, Southaven, Tupelo and Grenada.

Vice chancellor for health affairs and dean of the School of Medicine since 2003, Jones served as the Medical Center’s chief executive officer, overseeing five schools and the health system. Under his leadership, UMMC restructured its clinical enterprise to create a more agile, market-responsive organization focused on quality, efficiency and clinical leadership. The work resulted in a turnaround in financial performance and selection as one of the Thomson Top 100 Hospitals in America. Jones’ leadership team also expanded the Medical Center’s commitment to minor-ity scholarships, rural medicine and the elimination of health disparities. Enrollment of underrepresented medical students increased 80 percent in five years. They also led a campaign that raised $53 million, expanded the medical school’s class size from 100 students to 120 students per class and reorganized the medical faculty clinical practice plan from 17 individual practice groups to a single, unified one, facilitating more efficient management and improved patient care. Under his watch, the Medical Center’s research enterprise has been reinvigorated with completion of the Arthur C. Guyton Research Center, acquisition of funding for a research park and increased research funding. A native Mississippian, Jones graduated from Mississippi College in 1971, earned his M.D. in 1975 at UMMC and completed his residency in internal medicine there in 1978. He had a private practice in Laurel, then went to Korea as a medical missionary in 1985. He returned to the UM Medical Center as a faculty member in 1992 and was named the school’s Herbert G. Langford Professor of Medicine in 1998. He directed the hypertension division and led many clinical studies funded by the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute of the National Institutes of health. He played a crucial role in the acquisition of funding from NHLBI to create the Jackson Heart Study and was its first principal investigator. As the only large scale study of cardiovascular risk factors in African-Americans, Jones had to overcome the understandable reluctance of African Americans to participate in research and to build consensus among the three participat-ing institutions - Jackson State University, Tougaloo College and UMMC. Neither had ever collaborated in such a massive undertaking. The new chancellor began volunteering for the American Heart Association 20 years ago and became its national president in 2007-2008. He was one of the early voices in AHA leadership to call attention to the growing problem of childhood obesity and heart disease in women. He was AHA’s national spokesperson on high blood pres-sure. Jones is married to Lydia Channell Jones, also a Mississippi College graduate. They have two children, Jennifer Jones Flechas of Oxford and Jason Jones of Clinton.

pete boone | ATHLETICS DIRECTOR

In his 12 years as the University of Mississippi’s Director of Athletics, Pete Boone has overseen dramatic facility improve-ments across the athletics department, allowing Ole Miss stu-dent-athletes and teams to compete at the highest levels in the nation’s most competitive conference. Boone’s personal relationship with Ole Miss runs deep, be-ginning in 1968 when the Grenada, Miss., native first stepped on the Oxford campus as a center on the Rebel football team, playing first for legendary coach John Vaught and then coach Billy Kinard

as he earned three letters (1970-72). During Boone’s 12 years as Director of Athletics, Ole Miss has experienced con-tinued growth from adding sports to his overseeing in excess of $140 million in athletics improvements. A number of projects are currently in the final planning stages or recently com-pleted as Ole Miss continues to meet the challenges of the 21st century both on and off the field of competition.

Recent facility and or planned upgrades include:• Plans underway for $3 million renovation of the Palmer/Salloum Tennis Center, site of many men’s and women’s NCAA Regionals.• $13 million Basketball Practice Facility completed in December of 2009.• $18 million renovation of Oxford-University Stadium completed prior to the 2009 season. The stadium boasted the highest average attendance of the 2009 postseason with 9,882 fans per game. The Rebels have hosted two of the top 10 crowds for a Super Regional held at an on-campus facility in NCAA history.• Installation of a $6 million integrated system featuring a large high definition video display at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium/Hollingsworth Field in 2008.• FedEx Student-Athlete Academic Support Center opened in May of 2007.• Athletics Administration Building completed in October of 2007.

Under Boone’s watch, the athletics department remains committed to young men and women student-athletes and their parents, promising to provide a positive environ-ment of support to help them achieve their maximum potential in their academic and athletic pursuits. The FedEx Student-Athlete Academic Support Center’s front-line tech-nology and classroom environment provide Ole Miss student-athletes one of the best learning environments in the country. While Boone’s focus has been to provide student-athletes, coaches and admin-istrative staff with every opportunity to succeed, he is also representing Ole Miss and the Southeastern Conference on a number of regional and national committees. In August of 2008, Boone was elected Chairman of the SEC Athletics Directors Committee, succeeding long-time chair Larry Templeton of Mississippi State, who was retiring as athletics director. He is in his fifth and final year as a member of the NCAA Committee on Academic Performance (CAP) and serves as Chairman of its Subcommittee on Appeals. He recently served as a member of the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Academic En-hancement Group. Boone, a 1972 graduate of Ole Miss with a bachelor’s degree in banking and finance, is married to the former Scottye Howard of Grenada. The couple has two sons, Taylor and Lexie. Taylor is married to the former Laurel Joachim of Atlanta, Ga. Taylor and Laurel have two future Ole Miss Rebels -- a son, Morgan (8) and a daughter, Pharis Louise (3). Lexie is married to the former Kim Deuel of Binghamton, N.Y.

FReSHMan all-SeCOutside hitter Whitney Craven became the third player in Ole Miss history - as well as the third in as many years - to claim Freshman All-SEC honors when she was selected to the squad by a vote of the league’s coaches. Craven posted 218 kills on the season despite missing some matches due to injury early in the year. She joined Jackie Jones (2007) and Regina Thomas (2008) in claiming the honor for the Rebels.

FReSHMan oF THe weeKCraven helped herself in her case to claim a spot on the Freshman All-SEC team with her performance in the final weekend of play that garnered Freshman of the Week honors. Craven put down 13 kills and came up with a season-high 22 digs to help the Rebels rally from a two set deficit to claim the win. It was her fourth double-double of the season.

DebUTinG in STYleThe Rebels saw several players make a solid first im-pression in the opening weekend, but perhaps most notable was the performance of freshman outside hitter Whitney Craven. In the Rebels’ first match of the year against Texas State, Craven turned in a dou-ble-double as the Louisville, Kentucky, native tallied 11 kills and 11 digs to pace the Ole Miss squad.

HiTTinG THe CenTURY MaRKWhen the Rebels defeated Alabama on Sunday, Oc-tober 11, it was a milestone in the coaching career of Ole Miss head coach Joe Getzin. The Rebel skip-per picked up his 100th win at the helm of the Ole Miss volleyball program with the 3-2 victory over the Crimson Tide.

noRRiS HiTS 500 Kill MaRKWhen sophomore outside hitter Katie Norris put down 22 kills against fifth-ranked Florida on Septem-ber 18, the Rebel broke the 500 kill mark for her career. Norris put down a team-leading 321 kills as a freshman in 2008 and currently leads the team with 267 kills. Norris has tallied 608 kills for her career.

all-ToURnaMenT RebelOle Miss saw a member of the squad named to the All-Tournament Team at the Missouri Tiger In-vitational when junior middle blocker Miranda Kitts was selected to the team. Kitts was an effective force in the middle for the Rebels as she averaged 1.22 blocks per set on the weekend. She tallied 11 blocks in the tournament (4 BS, 7 BA) while her 23 kills was second on the team for the weekend along with freshman Whitney Craven. Kitts hit .360 for the tour-nament.

ToURnaMenT MvPMorgan Springer walked away from the 2009 Mag-nolia Invitational claiming MVP Honors for the Tour-nament after helping lead the squad to the title for the third straight year. Ole Miss went 4-0 in the event and Springer tallied 27 digs in a win over UAB to cap the event in the come from behind win to claim the MVP Award.

MoRe all-ToURnaMenT HonoRSSophomores Katie Norris and Catherine Heck were also big in the Magnolia Invitational for the Rebels, and both players were honored with All-Tournament selection. Norris posted 25 kills and hit .321 in the Championship match against UAB, while Heck came up with several service aces to spark the rally for

the win and earn her spot on the All-Tourney team. Norris was also named to the All-Tournament team at the Georgia Tech Invitational after putting down 25 kills against SEMO and 20 kills against Clemson. She added 19 kills against host Georgia Tech.

MaKe iT a SweePThe Rebels posted a clean sweep in SEC play, tak-ing both matches from conference rival Arkansas on the season and closing out the year on a high note with the 3-2 win over the Lady ‘Backs. With the sweep of the neighbors to the West, the Rebels have now posted a season sweep of at least one confer-ence foe for four straight seasons. It also marked the fourth consecutive year the Rebels have swept Arkansas.

CoMMUniTY SeRviCe TeaMJunior Emily Kvitle was named to the SEC Community Service Team in 2009 as she put in lots of time and effort to make the Oxford and Ole Miss community a better one for all involved. Kvitle participated in the Reading With The Rebels program, the SEC Canned Food Drive and the Rebel Re-Run program to collect athletic shoes for youth in Africa. She also served on the Student Athlete Advisory Committee as an execu-tive member.

Regarded as one of the world’s top sporting traditions, tailgating on football Saturdays at Ole Miss is one of those activities that every sports fan should take the opportunity to indulge in at some point in their life. Ten acres of lush green grass, watched over by majestic oak trees in the middle of the Ole Miss campus, are transformed from a tranquil picnic spot into tailgating paradise when thousands of football fans crowd into every corner of the land. Weaving through the myr-iad of red and blue tents, one is bound to encounter a few of the most extravagant set-ups in all of tailgating - fine china, chandeliers, big-screen satellite TVs. Of course, many tents are a bit simpler, but the unique atmosphere still encourages sundresses and high heels for the ladies and coats and ties for the men. Food and drink are abundant. “Hotty Toddy” can always be heard chanted among the trees. Champions walk through it. There is nowhere else like it. It is ... The Grove.

ObjectiVe:The primary objective for the University of Mississippi Strength and Conditioning

program is to help each athlete be the best they can be. In order to reach this goal, there are several components that must be addressed. There are general needs such as speed, power, agility and strength that must be met for each athlete. But in further development, functional training is used to meet the athlete’s specific needs based on their sport and position. Lastly, there is a mental component that helps the athlete prepare for the demands that will be placed on them during competition.

Ole Miss athletes use a wide variety of training methods, from Olympic-style lifting, to high intensity machine training, to the use of chains, tires and sandbags, all combin-ing together to help each athlete be their best.

With 10,000-square-foot weight rooms in the majestic Indoor Practice Facility and the Starnes Center, there are no greater facilities at which to train athletes. When enter-ing the weight training areas, Ole Miss players are quickly reminded of the champion-ship philosophy set forth by the Rebel strength staff. The IPF’s weight room, which is entering its seventh year of existence, is enhanced with visual messages and houses state-of-the-art training equipment. Besides the hundreds of weights, the room also contains a variety of Hammer Strength machines, Life Fitness cardiovascular machines

and a fully-stocked nutrition counter.With the IPF’s full-sized indoor practice field in addition to the soccer field, the

Rebels’ extensive workouts touch on every area of fitness and conditioning and prepare their bodies fully for intense SEC battles.

Director of Strength and Conditioning for Olympic Sports, Jami Clinton, is in her sixth season working with the volleyball team after she arrived in Oxford following stints at TCU and Alabama.

As a staff we are always trying to improve our program to give our student-athletes an edge in performance. WE'RE EITHER GETTING BETTER OR GETTING WORSE, WE

NEVER STAY THE SAME.

Rebel stRength and cOnditiOning

Ole Miss spORts MedicinePrevention. Treatment. Rehabilitation. Education. Those are the four primary

phases of athletic training, and the Ole Miss Sports Medicine staff strives to fulfill all four areas when working with the student-athletes on a daily basis.

“Our Athletic Trainers are allied healthcare professionals and we strive to provide quality healthcare based on the latest in medical research,” said Shannon Singletary, Senior Associate Athletic Director for Sports Medicine/Strength & Conditioning. “By doing this we hope to not only provide our athletes with a better chance of winning on the field, but also give them an opportunity to lead a healthy lifestyle.”

Ole Miss student-athletes are offered the best care possible by the Sports Medicine staff that includes nine full-time athletic trainers, five graduate assistants and several student assistants. The staff serves the student-athletes nearly around-the-clock and at numerous facilities on campus.

The Athletic Trainers begin treatments and rehabilitation as early as 6:30 a.m. and are available until the last student-athlete is through. There are currently five athletic training facilities on campus. The staff treats out of two primary athletic training rooms, in the Indoor Practice Facility and the Starnes Athletic Training Center, with three other satellite athletic training rooms, located at Tad Smith Coliseum, Gillom Center, and Oxford-University Stadium/Swayze Field.

The IPF and Starnes Center training rooms are stocked with equipment such as stationary bikes, hand weights, therapeutic modalities, and recent technology like under-water treadmills and Biodex testing equipment. Each component is strategically designed to not only give the student-athletes the best care, but also to aid in returning them to

competition as quickly and safely as possible. Singletary, though, said the emphasis is on the student-athlete's health, first and foremost.

Ole Miss Sports Medicine has strong working relationships with local physicians and Baptist Memorial Hospital, located less than five minutes from the campus. In addition, specialists from the University's Medical Center are often consulted.

The mission of the University of Mississippi Department of Intercollegiate Athletics is to advance the University's role as a major comprehensive institution of higher learn-ing dedicated to teaching, research, and service. The Department will produce com-petitive and entertaining athletic teams, by recruiting qualified student-athletes, coaches and staff from diverse backgrounds, providing equal opportunities regardless of ethnic-ity or gender. The Department will prepare student-athletes to be productive members of society by assisting in their development of academic, athletic, social, and leadership skills within an environment which fosters integrity, sportsmanship, and emotional, physical, and mental well being.

Operating within the principles of sound fiscal management, the Department will sponsor athletic teams which reflect the interest of the citizens of Mississippi and pro-mote enthusiasm, financial support, cohesiveness, and loyalty within the University community. Demonstrating leadership in all decisions which impact the University, the Southeastern Conference, and the National Collegiate Athletics Association, the Department will conduct itself in an ethical and honest manner.

Ole Miss student-athletes not only have the opportunity to play in one of the best confer-ences in the nation, they also attend a university that is world-renowned for its academics.

Under Karen Schiferl, the Senior Associate Athletics Director for Academic Support, the Office of Student-Athlete Academic Support has made great strides in improving the environ-ment for Ole Miss student-athletes. Schiferl is assisted by three assistant directors, four full-time academic counselors, three learning specialists and numerous tutors and academic mentors.

The mission of the Office of Student-Athlete Academic Support is to provide quality devel-opmental and need-based programs to help student-athletes become independent and self-reliant learners. In an environment that promotes student development, the staff provides support for all student-athletes from the time they arrive on campus through graduation. The staff provides resources, experience and knowledge empowering each student-athlete to reach his/her academic, career and personal potential. The OSAAS staff pursues this mission by promoting academic success with integrity, strict adherence to university, SEC and NCAA rules, and a dedication to excellence.

The Rebel volleyball program has been solid when it comes to academic performance over the years, claiming the AVCA Team Academic award for three consecutive seasons (2006-08) for having a team GPA above a 3.2 for the academic year.

The Rebels have also been one of the campus leaders among Olympic Sports when it comes to student-athletes making the grade. In 2009, six members of the squad were named to the SEC Academic Honor Roll while five athletes were named to the Freshman Academic Honor Roll. Under head coach Joe Getzin, there have been 60 selections to the SEC Academic Honor Roll and Freshman Academic Honor Roll over the last eight seasons.

Among all sports, Ole Miss has had 148 student-athletes named to the SEC Academic Honor Rolls over the past year. With Ole Miss athletics taking its place amongst the best in the nation, the Student-Athlete Academic Support staff hopes that Rebel graduates of today have a great impact in the future of tomorrow.

Rebel Ready - CHAMPS Life Skills is a well-rounded program for student-athletes to develop individual skills necessary to lead successful lives and become leaders for our communities and nation.

The program consists of these five vital components:• The Commitment to Academic Excellence is promoted

through a full range of services that include orientation, advising, tutoring, academic skills training and the recognition of academic excellence.• The Commitment to Athletic Excellence is developed by the department’s 10 women and eight men intercollegiate sports teams. The sponsorship is based on equity and compliance to all University, NCAA and Southeastern Conference rules and regulations.

• The Commitment to Career Development is a joint effort of the Ole Miss Athletic Department and Career Center. The goal is to prepare student-athletes for their transition out of sports and into the career development process. Career development components of the program include special workshops and programs for student-athletes and a senior resume brochure.• The Commitment to Personal Development is promoted through life skills and personal development seminars and sponsorship of the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee.• The Commitment to Service is promoted—in conjunction with the University Counseling Center—through many community service projects throughout the year. The Ole Miss stu-dent-athletes are very involved in the community and the community service program contin-ues to grow.

Who is a prospect?A prospective student-athlete is defined as an athlete who has begun classes for the ninth grade. However, it is possible for a younger student to be considered a prospect if the institution (or a representative of its athletic interests) provides the student (or family member) benefits not provided to prospects generally.

Who May contact a prospect during the Recruiting process?All in-person, on and off-campus recruiting contacts with a prospect (or family) are limited to autho-rized institutional staff members or full-time enrolled students at the institution. All other persons are prohibited from engaging in any personal, telephone, or written contact with the prospect (or family) for encouraging participation in the institution's athletics programs.

how and When May a prospect be contacted?In all sports, a prospect may not be contacted in-person, off-campus until their senior year in high school. Prospects may not receive correspondence from an institution until their junior year in high school (exception: men’s basketball - June 15 after sophomore year). Questionnaires and camp brochures may be sent prior to the junior year.

When May a prospect Visit an institution's campus?Prospects may visit an institution's campus at their own expense ("unofficial visit") and receive com-plimentary passes to an athletic contest anytime except during "dead periods." Check with the institu-

tion for dates. There is no limit to the number of times a prospect may visit a campus at his/her own expense. Prospects may receive an expense paid visit ("official visit") only after they have begun classes for their senior year and have registered with the NCAA Eligibility Center and submitted tran-scripts and test scores to the institution. Prospects are limited to a maximum of five official visits with no more than one per institution.

What is considered "being Recruited?"A prospect is considered recruited if a coach, staff member or representative of the institution's athletic interest (booster) attempts to persuade a prospect (or family member) to enroll at their institution and participate in the athletics program. A student is considered "recruited" if any of the following actions are taken: 1) the institution provides the prospect with an "official visit" (i.e., expenses paid) to its campus; 2) a coach arranges for an in-person, off-campus (home or prospect's school) encounter with the prospect; 3) transportation to campus by a coach or booster; 4) receiving more than one telephone call from a coach for recruiting purposes.

What should a prospect do during the Recruiting process?Prospects should register with the NCAA Eligibility Center during their junior year in high school. Contact your high school guidance counselor or call the NCAA Eligibility Center at (877) 262-1492 for more information. The NCAA publishes "The Guide for the College-Bound Student-Athlete," which may be purchased from the NCAA. If you should have any questions, visit the Compliance web page at www.OleMissSports.com or call the University of Mississippi Athletic Compliance Office at (662) 915-1594.

Fedex acadeMic suppORt centeRFedEx Corporation announced on April 14, 2005, a

$2.5 million gift over five years to the University of Mississippi to create an academic support center for stu-dent-athletes. In May 2007, the vision became reality as the FedEx Student-Athlete Academic Support Center opened its doors to Rebel athletes.

The center provides state-of-the-art computer facilities and space for study halls and tutoring for men and women student-athletes, as well as additional classrooms for all students.

“FedEx has always been a strong supporter of educa-tional initiatives at all levels,” said Mike Glenn, executive vice president, marketing development and corporate communi-cations. “This contribution to the University of Mississippi is an extension of our commitment to helping improve the academic resources available to students, and student-ath-letes in particular.”

Glenn said FedEx and Ole Miss are committed to provid-ing a strong academic foundation to enable students to reach their full potential.

The money has been used to renovate a portion of the Starnes Athletic Center—which formerly housed football locker rooms, a weight room and training facilities—next to Vaught-Hemingway Stadium on All-American Drive. The 22,500-square-foot building now houses the Office of Student-Athlete Academic Support, including offices, confer-ence rooms, 20 large and small group tutoring rooms, a large study area, a multi-media classroom, computer lab and 150-seat high-tech auditorium. The project was completed in May 2007 with an approximate cost of $5 million.

In accepting the FedEx gift, university officials said the new center provides an important link in the university’s goal to compete at the highest level in every aspect of its inter-collegiate programs.

“American public universities are the best in the world largely because of the generosity of American corporations,” said then-UM Chancellor Robert Khayat. “FedEx sets the standard for philanthropy by which others are measured. In this case, Ole Miss student-athletes are the primary beneficiaries, but all our students will benefit and, as a result, our entire state benefits.”

Athletics Director Pete Boone said the FedEx Academic Support Center plays a valuable role in preparing student-athletes for success after their collegiate playing days are concluded.

“In recruiting, we make a commitment to young men and women and their parents. We promise to provide a positive environment of support to help them achieve their maximum potential in their academic and athletic pursuits,” said Boone. “The FedEx Academic Support Center enables Ole Miss to go beyond that promise. The Center’s front-line technology and classroom environment provide our student-athletes one of the best learning environments in the country.”

In addition to its latest gift to the University, FedEx sup-ports several endowed scholarship programs, the Whitten Chair in Law, the Lott Leadership Institute, the William Winter Institute for Racial Reconciliation and William Faulkner’s his-toric home, Rowan Oak.

Every aspect of Ole Miss Athletics is geared toward the success of its student-athletes. The Michael S. Starnes Athletic Training Center provides a valuable role in the devel-opment and display of that success.

The multi-purpose Starnes Center has undergone many transformations through the years. It currently houses Ole Miss Sports Medicine, FCA and CHAMPS Life Skills headquar-ters and includes a 10,000-square-foot weight room and a sizeable memorabilia collection.

Formerly the Doc Knight Field House, the Training Center stands just north of Vaught-Hemingway Stadium and within walking distance of Tad Smith Coliseum, Swayze Field and the main athletics office complex.

The primary training room on the Ole Miss campus is used by several Rebel sports. The training area has four offices for the athletic training staff, room for at least 13 treatment tables, six taping stations and countless rehabilita-tion equipment. It also contains a wet room with a whirlpool that help make up an environment for top-notch care and injury prevention for Rebel athletes.

The facility extends to the east into a similar structure which holds a massive weight room, a lobby, conference room and offices. Connected to the west end is the FedEx Academic Support Center, a state-of-the-art complex opened in May 2007.

Starnes, the building’s benefactor, donated $1 million toward the facility as part of an extensive $2.5 million reno-vation in 1995. A 1968 Ole Miss graduate, Starnes is presi-dent of Tennessee California Express, Inc., a transportation company.

Much of the history and the many accolades of Rebel athletics are displayed in two rooms on the second floor of the Starnes Center that make up Hollingsworth-Manning Hall.

The larger room is divided into four zones, with the North Wing reserved to honor the nine Ole Miss Rebels in the College Football Hall of Fame. The East Wing spotlights the 42 Ole Miss first-team All-Americans as well as Hall of Fame Coach John Vaught and the legacy of Chucky Mullins. The West Wing is reserved for baseball, track, tennis and golf

All-Americans as well as Bruiser Kinard, the only player in Ole Miss history inducted into the College and Professional Football Halls of Fame. The South Zone honors Ole Miss All-Americans in men's and women's basketball as well as C. M. "Tad" Smith, who played and coached at Ole Miss and also served as Athletics Director.

The smaller room of Hollingsworth-Manning Hall is devoted entirely to an impressive memorabilia collection from the family of Ole Miss legend Archie Manning, which includes items of all three sons, Cooper, Peyton and Eli. The focal point of the exhibit are Super Bowl MVP photos of both Peyton and Eli hoisting the Lombardi Trophy.

Dr. Jerry Hollingsworth, an Ole Miss alumnus and gen-eral practitioner in Ft. Walton Beach, Fla., joined forces with former Rebel quarterback Archie Manning to establish the recruitment/memorabilia center. It is faithfully maintained and updated by Langston Rogers, Senior Associate Athletics Director Emeritus.
