    UNC Asheville is a selective, public liberal arts institution. UNC Ashevilles Intercollegiate Athletics Program reflects the attitudes and values underlying the Universitys overall mission: academic excellence, diversity, equity, integrity, service, and accomplishment. The UNC Asheville athletics program contributes to this liberal arts culture in two ways. First, athletics programs foster a sense of community and pride by fielding NCAA Division I teams and developing talented student-athletes who successfully represent UNC Asheville in competition and reflect the Universitys commitment to overall excellence. Accordingly, the athletics program encourages an atmosphere of respect for self and others through the development of ethical conduct, sportsmanship, leadership, and citizenship and provides equitable opportunities for all students and staff, including women, minorities and indivduals of all sexual identities. Second, the program provides an additional campus experience for capable students to grow and develop academically, personally, socially, and athletically. This experience promotes institutional commitment and pride on the part of students, faculty, staff, and alumni.

    PRIMARY ATHLETICS LOGO

    SECONDARY ATHLETICS LOGOS

  • 4Its back to basics for the UNC Asheville womens bas-ketball program as they prepare for the 2010-11 sea-son. Ninth-year head coach Betsy Blose wants her program to get back to the basics that helped the Bulldogs re-cord four straight winnings and capture the 2007 Big South Conference championship and trip to the NCAA Tournament. Blose and her staff are determined to improve on last years 8-22 record and eighth place finish in the Big South Conference. I want us to get back to the basic fundamentals on what this program was built on when I got here in the spring of 2002, stated Blose. Were going to improve our defense and continue to be solid in the rebounding department. I want us to have discipline, and our work ethic to be second to none this year. Blose and her staff are focusing on the positives of this years club and not looking in the past. Were going to be a young team, added Blose. We have a lot to prove this year, but I believe were going in the right direction. Blose believes one of the keys to this years club is the ability to hit the three-point shot. We need to be a really good three-point shooting club this season, explained Blose. Weve got an inex-perienced post game that is going to take some time to develop, so were going to have to be able to shoot the basketball from long range. We have the shooters who can do it but they need to do it with consistency in every game. BACKCOURT The Bulldogs return some experience in the backcourt this season. Start with senior Kendall Shepard who av-

    eraged 8.1 points per game and led Asheville in assists with 120. Shes being moved to the two guard spot in 2010-11. We need Kendall to score more for us this year, de-clared Blose. Were not going to play her at the point at all. I just want Kendall to focus on playing the two guard spot and scoring. Shes playing with a sense of urgency with this being her senior year.

    Kendall Shepard

    Junior Lindsey Thompson is back and should compete for a lot of playing time. Thompson led the Bulldogs in three-pointers made last season with 53 and averaged 8.2 points per game. Lindsey is a great three-point shooter who improved on her mid-range last season, commented Blose. Were going to give her the green light to shoot the three-pointer as much as she can. Lindsey is a hard worker who has also turned into a great leader.

    Also returning in the backcourt is senior Chioma Oko-

    2010-11 UNC ASHEVILLE BASKETBALL PREVIEW

  • 5lia. The Maryland native averaged 8.1 points per game as a junior and scored in double figures 12 times.

    Chioma is a returning senior who is one of the stron-gest players on our team, explained Blose. We want her to step up and give us a presence on the defensive end and rebound from the perimeter. Dana Wagner is one of four seniors on this years ros-ter. She is a junior college transfer who earned some playing time a year ago. Wagner averaged 2.8 points per game and knocked down 15 treys. Blose hopes for more production this season. Dana is an excellent three-point shooter, and we just need her to shoot more, pointed out Blose. We need her to defend a little better, but shes a hard worker who Im anxious to see have success this season. Sophomore Grace Blaylock had some great moments last season. She started in 19 games and showed some real promise. Blaylock averaged 4.4 points per game and connected on 32 three-pointers.

    Lindsey Thompson

    Grace found a way to play a lot last year, and Im sure shell do the same this season, declared Blose. Shes an intelligent, hard-working player who can knock down a long three-pointer. Grace has been slowed a little bit in the preseason by an injury but when the season starts I know shell be ready to go. Breaira Barksdale is a sophomore who earned some valuable experience in her rookie season a year ago. Were really pleased to see how much Breaira has im-proved, commented Blose. Its obvious shes worked hard and was in the gym a lot this summer. Were grooming her to be our point guard but she has to earn that spot. One of Ashevilles newcomers is 5-9 freshman Britt-ney Bowser. She played at Oak Hill Academy the last two years and could be a factor for the Bulldogs as a rookie. Brittney has size and length, plus is quite athletic, ex-plained Blose. Shes very strong going to the basket. Brittney played for a great high school program at Oak Hill Academy. She could make an impact right away. FRONTCOURT The Bulldogs are very young in the front court but do have some interesting options.

    The Bulldogs return one of the best forwards in the Big South this season in senior Lindsey Montgomery. The Shelby native averaged a double-double last year for the Bulldogs as she led Asheville in scoring (12.5) and rebounding (10.1). Her rebounding mark led the Big South Conference and she became the first player in the last five years in the league to average a double-double.

    Lindsey is a returning senior who we expect to have a great season, stated Blose. She is a tremendous ath-lete who can rebound with the best of them. We be-lieve Lindsey has the ability to average a double-double

    BULLDOGS LOOKING BUILD FOUNDATION

  • 6again for us this year.

    Red-shirt sophomore Kelli Riles showed some real promise last season. She averaged 5.4 points per game and was second on the club in rebounding with a 4.9 mark. Riles started the last six games of the year, and Bulldog fans could see her getting better and better with each game. Kelli is already a great rebounder and defender and shes still learning, declared Blose. Shes so strong and is a real factor in the post. Kelli has an outstanding work ethic and is going to be a key player this year. Another red-shirt sophomore is Katie Wise. Wise gave the Bulldogs some solid moments last year and is still developing. However, she did suffer a leg injury and has not been able to practice in the preseason. We just hate that Katie is hurt because shes such a hard worker and wants to get better, explained Blose. Shes a good face-up shooter who really battles inside. Were going to need her this season. Coach Blose believes the Bulldogs will get a contribu-tion from 5-10 sophomore Gentry Manley. Manley is a walk-on who joins the Asheville program this season. She played high school ball locally at T.C. Roberson and also played at Catawba Valley Community College. Gentry is a player who can play either forward spot, stated Blose. Shes a good shooter who is going to get some playing time. Two freshmen will compete for playing time in the post this year. Blake Cokes is a 6-1 center from Trotwood-Madison HS in Dayton, Ohio. Abra Sickles is the tall-est player on the Bulldog roster at 6-4. She joins the Asheville program from Mercer County HS in Har-rodsburg, Ky.

    Lindsey Montgomery

    We truly believe Blake is a great catch for our pro-gram, declared Blose. Shes already a pretty solid de-fender and rebounder. Blake needs some work on her offense but were excited about her potential. Abra will present problems for opponent simply due to her size, stated Blose. She has a nice touch for a player her size. Abra is getting better and better every time she goes out on the court.

  • 7Big South Announces Preseason Basketball Poll

    CHARLOTTE, N.C. (BigSouthSports.com) - Liberty Universitys womens basketball squad has been chosen as the favorite in the Big South Conferences annual preseason poll for the 2010-11 season in a vote of the Leagues Head Coaches and media panel.

    For the 13th time in the last 14 seasons, Liberty is the preseason womens basketball favorite, as the Lady Flames received 13 first-place votes and 172 total points in the poll. Liberty welcomes back four starters and 11 letterwinners from last years NCAA Tournament squad. Gardner-Webb, which won the regular-season in 2009-10 and has battled the Lady Flames in the last two Big South Championship games, was voted second with 163 points and collected the remaining seven first-place votes. High Point was picked third with 128 points, just ahead of No. 4 Charleston Southern (121 points).

    BETSY BLOSEHEAD COACH

    JAMES MADISON, 1984 9th SEASONBetsy Blose begins her ninth year as head coach of the UNC Asheville womens basketball program. She is the schools all-time winningest coach with 116 victories and has produced winning seasons in four of the last seven years. Blose has led the Bulldog program to a trip to the NCAA Tournament and been named Big South Conference Coach-of-the-Year once during her career at Asheville.

    In the 2008-09 season, the Bulldogs struggled through a 10-20 record as Asheville was hit hard with the injury bug. However, her team still managed to earn a win over Southern Conference champion Western Carolina and produced seven Big South Con-ference wins, just a game out of third place.

    In the 2007-08 season, she watched a young team battle through injuries with just seven healthy players. Asheville still managed to take second-seeded and NWIT participant Radford into double overtime in the quarterfinals of the Big South Tournament. The 2006-07 season was a special you for Blose and the Bulldog program. Asheville captured its first ever Big South Conference championship with three exciting wins at Justice Center. The Bull-dogs advanced to the NCAA Tournament for the first time in school history and played LSU in the Austin (TX) Regional. The Bulldogs ran off six-straight victories to end the season, including a victory over 10-time defending league champion Liberty on the Flames home-court. Asheville also picked up its first victory over an ACC school with a 58-53 win at Wake Forest. The Bulldogs fin-ished the year with a 21-12 record, the most wins for the program since going Division I. Asheville also set records for most points, most free throws made and attempted, most three-pointers made and attempted, and most blocked shots in a season.

    The Bulldogs finished 2005-06 with a 15-13 overall record, mark-ing the third straight winning season. It is the first time thats been accomplished at UNC Asheville in more than 20 years.

    In the 2004-05 season, the Bulldogs reached the Big South Con-ference championship game for just the second time in school history before falling to eventual Sweet 16 participant Liberty. UNC Asheville finished with an 18-12 overall record and third place finish in the league... The 18 wins were the second highest since the school went Division.

    The 2003-04 season was one of the best stories in college basket-ball. UNC Asheville finished with a 19-9 overall record and posted an amazing 16-game improvement over the previous seasons 3-25 mark. The Bulldogs were the most improved team in the nation and their turnaround was the third best in Division I history. In addition, Asheville finished in second place in the Big South Con-ference with a 9-5 mark; easily the best finish ever for the Bulldogs and the nine league wins also set a school record. Not bad for a club picked to finish in last place in Big South Preseason Polls.

    Blose has preached defense and rebounding everywhere she has coached and that dedication became evident during the 2003-04 season as the Bulldogs finished number one in the Big South and ranked seventh nationally in points allowed on defense as their stingy defense allowed opponents to score just 54.8 points per game. The Bulldogs were second in the Big South in rebounding margin grabbing 4.8 more rebounds than their opponents.

    Prior to coming to Asheville, Blose did an outstanding job at Shep-herd University, located in Shepherdstown, W.Va. where she inher-ited a program in the fall of 1995 that hadnt had a winning season in eight years. It took her just three seasons to post a winning record as the Rams compiled a 93-48 (.660) overall record in her final five seasons. She had a career record of 114-77 at Shepherd in seven seasons. The James Madison graduate led the Rams to the schools first-ever West Virginia Intercollegiate Athletic Confer-ence title during the 1998-99 season. In the 2000-01 season, she guided the Rams to a school record 20-7 mark as her team led the league in scoring defense (58.7 ppg) and in rebound margin (+8.6).

    She earned her 100th career coaching victory on December 28, 2001 and her team won the Sam Marchio Team Sportsmanship award three times during her tenure. The Harrisonburg, Va. native was inducted into the Shepherd Hall of Fame in 2006.

    Blose began her college coaching career at her alma mater, James Madison University in 1987 where she served as an assistant coach with the Dukes program for eight seasons. She helped lead the school to three trips to the NCAA tournament and three Co-lonial Conference championships. Blose was on the staff in 1988 and 1991 when James Madison advanced to the Sweet 16 of the NCAA tournament

    Blose coached at Altavista (Va.) High School in 1984 and led the school to an amazing 69-5 record in three seasons. Blose led Altavista to Seminole District Championships for three straight years and was the District Coach of the Year twice. In 1987, she was named as a Virginia High School League All-Star coach.

    Blose earned two awards in 2005 as she was honored by the YWCA as a TWIN honoree for her leadership in the Asheville community. She was also honored by her Alma Mater, James Madi-son, as the Outstanding Alumni from the Kinesiology Depart-ment.

    A 1984 graduate of James Madison, Blose was a four-year letter-winner in womens basketball from 1980 to 1984. She was the programs team captain during her junior and senior seasons. Blose graduated magna cum laude in 1984 and was awarded the Johnston Senior Award for Excellence in Kinesiology.
