ER 2011 SEASON 2011 SEASON OUTLOOKOUTLOOKThe 2011 University of New Haven women’s soccer team will rely on veteran leadership to guide a young core this fall as the team sets out for its third-straight winning season. The Chargers fi nished with a 9-8-2 overall mark in 2010 and will return 13 players from last year’s squad, including four senior class members.

Co-captains Kim Taylor and Lauren Primovic will be asked to lead a young squad that consists of 17 underclassmen and eight freshmen. Of those eight newcomers, four are expected to make immediate impacts in starting roles. Despite the lack of experience, second-year head coach Laura Duncan has high expectations for this year’s team as they look to make their third consecutive Northeast-10 Conference Tournament appearance.

GoalkeeperSenior co-captain Kim Taylor will serve as the team’s an-chor this fall as she looks to improve upon a stellar career thus far. She has started all-but one game since joining the team as a freshman. Last season, Taylor fi nished third in the Northeast-10 Conference with seven shutouts and fourth in the league with 111 saves for a .799 saves percentage as a junior. In addition, she tallied a career-high 14 saves in a 1-0 victory over Adelphi. Expectations remain high for the talented senior as she will see most of the action between the posts in 2011. Returning to the squad is sophomore Breanna Brown and she will be joined by two newcomers, freshmen Moriah Saidel and Natasha Purchla.

DefenseJunior Lauren Primovic and sophomore Amanda Hathaway will be asked to guide a very young backline this year – one that may feature four freshmen and only one senior. Primovic will serve as co-captain in 2011 and returns this fall as the most experienced defender. She has appeared in all 39 games the last two years including 35 starts. Hathaway enters her second season as a Charger after a freshman campaign in which she started all 19 games in the backfi eld. Also provid-ing experience on the defensive end is senior Danielle Iacono who may be looked upon for veteran leadership. In addition, their will be fi ve newcomers to this year’s defense including sophomore, Heather Timmons and Shelbi Guimond. Both will be asked to make an immediate impact in a starting role. Freshmen Hannah Allen and Jenn Dobrodziej will also look to earn minutes for the Chargers’ defense as fi rst year contribu-tors.

Midfi eldHead coach Laura Duncan hopes the midfi eld acts as the engine that fuels this year’s squad. Leading the group is se-nior Brenna Weidman, who started all 19 games last season in her fi rst year with New Haven. She will be asked to play a

pivotal role in the middle alongside sophomore newcomer Nicole Pacapelli and freshman Amber Simms. Adding leader-ship to a young core is senior Mary Kitsis. Kitis has made 43 appearances and 16 starts in three seasons with the Char-gers and will be joined by sophomores Tami Vargas and Alexa Seidenfeld.

ForwardLeading the Chargers attack in 2011 will be junior Lucy Fran-cisco. Expectations are high for the junior after an exceptional preseason and stellar 2010 campaign. She led the team in assists with three and was second in both points and goals. Francisco also recorded two game-winning goals last year and will guide the most experienced group on the team. Joining her will be junior Shannon Morales and sophomore Monica Yanez. Morales and Yanez accounted for 24 starts last season including 12 points and fi ve goals. Yanez enters her second season as a Charger and will be asked to become a leader im-mediately. Sophomores Jordan Lipner-Riza and Alyssa Zargos, and freshmen Courtney Marra and Colie Sambrook hope to make an impact off-the-bench at the forward position.

The ScheduleNew Haven begins the season on Sunday, September 4 with its home-opener versus non-conference opponent Dominican College at 12:00 p.m. The Chargers will have four days of rest before returning to Kayo Field on Friday, September 9 for their fi rst conference matchup against Franklin Pierce. Game time is scheduled for 4:00 p.m. They conclude the weekend with their fi rst away game on Sunday, September 11 as they head to North Andover, Mass. to face Merrimack. Kickoff is set for 1:00 p.m.

The rest of the season will be highlighted by conference matchups against top ranked teams such as AIC, UMass Lowell and Saint Rose, as well as cross-town rival Southern Connecticut. New Haven will make a short trip to cross-town rival SCSU on September 20 for a 7:00 p.m. kickoff. On Wednesday, September 28, the Chargers will head to Spring-fi eld, Mass. to face AIC at 7:00 p.m. The following week, New Haven will host the River Hawks of UMass Lowell. Kickoff is set for 1:00 p.m. at Kayo Field. The next game features a trip to Albany, N.Y. as the Chargers take on the NE-10 reigning champion Golden Knights of Saint Rose for a 5:00 p.m. start time. New Haven will then honor its senior class members prior to the team’s fi nal home game versus Le Moyne at 3:30 p.m. on October 18. The Chargers conclude the 2011 regular season with three consecutive away games starting with a trip to Saint Michael’s on October 22 and fi nishing with a 1:00 p.m. contest on October 29 against Southern New Hampshire.

The Northeast-10 Conference enters its 31st year as there is little surprise why the Northeast-10 Conference has continued to grow stronger year by year since it’s inception and now stands as a model conference of NCAA Division II.

The conference was built from the ground up with strong cornerstones and a vision of becoming the premier Division II NCAA athletic conference in the nation. A quick look around the league today will tell even the casual observer that the NE-10 has done so. The conference is a powerful union of strong academic and athletic colleges and universities that incorporates 16 institutions from New York and New England. The NE-10 sponsors the most championship sports of any Division II conference in the nation.

The Northeast-10 can look to a long history of successes – the growth from seven original schools to more than double its size 20 years later – the contention for and winning of national championships – the change in league structure from on-campus administration to a central governing location – the anticipation of, coping with and addition of modern technology - the recognition of student-athlete performances in the classroom where the real competitions are played out – all of them have been built thanks to the hard work and dedication through the years of thousands of people who have, at one time or another, called the Northeast-10 home for their athletics program or their livelihood.

The NE-10 history began with the vision of a few good men and women. It was back in 1979 that a handful of athletics directors realized that the world of college athletics was changing and that they, and their programs, would have to change as well.

In the late 1970’s and early 1980’s the NCAA began to emphasize the importance of conferences in organizing competition and determining bids to NCAA national tournaments. The NCAA required six teams to be recognized as a conference in order to award championships, and the creation of national tournaments with automatic qualifi ers to league champions became a new goal towards which teams could strive.

The founding fathers of the NE-10 were only happy to comply. Thus, a handful of athletic directors at smaller schools, classifi ed Division II and of similar scope, academic makeup and athletic abilities hatched the idea of a new athletics conference in New England. Therefore, on October 9, 1979, a simple press release announced that a new unnamed Division II conference was being formed. Eight months later, at the Pleasant Valley Country Club in Springfi eld, Mass., the league was publicly announced.

The Northeast-7 Conference established instant credibility in its membership and that credibility led to a slow but continued expansion through the years. The admittance of Saint Anselm in 1981 created the Northeast-8. In 1984, Hartford joined the ECAC Division I North Atlantic Conference but was immediately replaced by Merrimack.

The “Northeast-10” name came about when Saint Michael’s and Quinnipiac joined the league in 1987 and the conference remained stable until 1995 when Springfield left for Division III. The league stayed at 10 members as Le Moyne joined the league in 1996 from the New England Collegiate Conference (NECC) and briefl y expanded to 11 when Pace joined in 1998 from the New York Collegiate Athletic Conference (NYCAC). Quinnipiac elevated to the Division I Northeast Conference (NEC) to again return the foundation of 10 until the last major expansion took place prior to 2001 when fi ve new schools joined the fold. Franklin Pierce, Southern New Hampshire University (formerly New Hampshire College), the University of Massachusetts Lowell and Southern Connecticut State University were joined by the College of Saint Rose.

In 2008, Bryant University departed for Division I and the University of New Haven immediately to replace Bryant in all sports, maintaining a 15 institutions in the conference.

Adelphi University, became the newest member of the conference last year, bringing membership to 16 full-time institutions.

Joseph Machnik began his illustrious career as the head coach of the men’s soccer team, fi elding some national caliber teams over 10 seasons. In 1975, he introduced the women’s athletic program, and later coached the women’s soccer team from 1993-96, including 25 wins in his fi nal two seasons.

A four-year captain, Mireille DeRose-Esponda immediately starred in the fi rst year of the program in 1993. She fi nished with 37 goals and added 19 assists for a total of 91 points in four years. She helped the 1996 team to a 13-5-1 record and the program’s fi rst-ever postseason appearance (ECAC Tournament). She was selected to the New England Senior Bowl, and as a junior was All-New England Collegiate Conference and on two All-Region teams.

Christine Huber, a four-time all-conference selection, is second all-time in scoring at UNH. Her totals of 63 goals and 144 points were both school records until after the 2006 season. She burst onto the scene with 20 goals and 45 points in her fi rst season, en route to one of her two First Team All-NECC awards, and led the program to a No. 6 ranking in the New England region. Huber still holds school records for goals (5) and points (10) in a single game. She later played professionally in the W-League in 2002 and 2003.

Deborah Chin, Associate Vice President, Director of Athletics and Recreation

Steven H. Kaplan, Ph.D., University PresidentSteven H. Kaplan, Ph.D., became the sixth president of the University of New Haven (UNH) on July 1, 2004. Dr. Kaplan joined a nearly 85-year-old institution dedicated to experiential education. With enrollment of over 5,200 undergraduate and graduate students representing more than 35 states and some 45

countries, UNH has several nationally ranked programs in a number of majors in business, engineering, public safety, and the liberal arts and sciences.

Dr. Kaplan was presented to the community in March 2004 by then Board of Governors Chairman Robert Alvine, who characterized the president-designate as energetic, well-liked and respected, focused and remarkably effective in mobilizing an institution’s resources to achieve target results. His highest priorities are strengthening the University’s endowment, growing enrollment to optimum levels, and engendering an atmosphere for excellence among all constituencies. He has focused on establishing strong relationships with members and organizations within UNH’s circle of constituents – faculty, students, administrators, alumni, friends, campus neighbors and leaders of Connecticut’s business and public service communities.

As president, he oversees a faculty of nearly 400, 530 staff, and an annual budget of $84 million.

Previously, Dr. Kaplan was chancellor and professor of English at the University of Virginia’s College at

Wise, Virginia, the only four-year branch campus of the University of Virginia and one of the nation’s best public colleges, according to U. S. News & World Report.

Dr. Kaplan began his teaching career in 1982 as an Instructor of English at the University of Maryland, European Division. From 1985-1989, he served as Visiting Lecturer in American Studies at Eberhard-Karls Universitat, Tübingen, Germany – one of the oldest and most highly regarded universities in Europe. After completing his doctoral studies at Eberhard-Karls Universität, he returned to the U.S. to teach English at the University of Southern Colorado. Within three years, he was made department chair, serving in that capacity for two years before becoming Director of the Center for International Studies.

Dr. Kaplan also served as dean of Arts and Humanities at SUNY College at Buffalo, an institution with about 11,000 students; and as Dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences at Butler University, an independent comprehensive institution of fi ve colleges and 3,400 students, which is ranked by U. S. News & World Report as one of the top regional universities in the Midwest.

He completed his Ph.D. in Comparative Literature at Eberhard-Karls Universität in Germany and holds the Master of Arts degree (with a concentration in philosophy, German, and English), also from Eberhard-Karls Universitat. He earned his Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of California at Los Angeles.

Dr. Kaplan is the author of a book on American translations of the poetry of Rainer Maria Rilke, a number of scholarly essays, a book on Tim O’Brien’s

fi ction with the University of South Carolina Press, and an anthology of international war stories with the University Press of Colorado.

Dr. Kaplan and his wife, Anemone Schweizer-Kaplan, are both ardent opera buffs and love to ballroom dance, hike, and downhill ski. They share a great love for the visual and performing arts and have traveled to over twenty-fi ve countries in twenty-fi ve years, including Tanzania where they hiked up Mt. Kilimanjaro. They have a son and three daughters

Dr. Kaplan grew up in Chicago, the son of a shoe store owner and an actress-comedienne. He said his stepfather, Irving Glovin, taught him to love ideas and appreciate the contributions we all need to make to good causes. He was a good friend of Oskar Schindler, was instrumental in getting the story out in book and fi lm form (associate producer of the fi lm), and is the President of the Oskar Schindler Humanitarian Foundation. Dr. Kaplan also serves on the board of the foundation.

His wife grew up in Southwest Germany. She holds the equivalent of an American M.A. in Secondary Education and taught at a German high school. She is a ceramics artist and taught German and pottery during their time in Wise.

Deborah Chin became the school’s fourth director of athletics in 1993, and currently oversees a department which sponsors 17 NCAA Division II varsity sports. She was elected to the prestigious position of Chair for the NCAA’s Division II Management Council for 2008.

UNH Athletics has enjoyed a high level of success across the board during Chin’s tenure as Director of Athletics, advancing to NCAA tournament play 50 times in 14-plus years. UNH has recently made a number of capital improvements to athletic and recreational facilities, including the construction of the multi-million dollar David A. Beckerman Student Recreation Center, a $1.3 million synthetic turf renovation of Kayo Field (soccer and lacrosse), as well as installation of state-of-the-art blue and yellow synthetic turf at the new Ralph F. DellaCamera Stadium. Chin spearheaded efforts to re-instate football as a varsity program and fi nd UNH a new athletics conference that best fi ts the institution’s long-term academic and athletic aspirations. Both goals were accomplished when UNH announced on November 13, 2007 that it had been accepted as a full member of the prestigious Northeast-10 Conference, effective the 2008-09 academic year. The Charger football team will return to the gridiron for the 2009 season.

A member of the University of New Haven staff since 1975, Chin began her UNH career as Coordinator of Women’s Athletics. She was responsible for starting

the women’s intercollegiate athletic program at UNH, coaching volleyball, tennis, basketball and softball in the early years. Chin eventually surrendered all head coaching responsibilities, except volleyball, when she was promoted to Associate Director of Athletics in 1979.

Among her numerous honors, Chin was named the NACWAA NCAA Division II Administrator of the Year in 2009 after serving as the D-II Management Council Chair. In 2007, the Connecticut Sportswriters’ Alliance presented Chin with the Gold Key Award, the state’s top sporting honor which recognizes significant contributions to athletics in the State of Connecticut. Chin won the NACDA/Continental Airlines Athletic Director of the Year for the Northeast Region in 1998-99 and was awarded the NACWAA Josten’s District I Administrator of the Year Award in 1997. Chin won the National Association for Girls and Women in Sports Presidential Award in March 1997 and was the Connecticut Post Woman of the Year in 1993. Chin has also earned the U.S. Volleyball Association Meritorious Service Award and the YMCA Women in Leadership Award.

As head women’s volleyball coach, Chin fashioned a Hall of Fame resume - literally - earning induction into the American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA) Hall of Fame in December, 2006. Chin is also a member of the Connecticut Volleyball Hall of Fame (Inducted October, 1998), the Connecticut Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame (April, 1999), and the Athletics Hall of Fame at her alma mater, SUNY-Cortland.

In a 19-year career (1975-93) as head coach for the Chargers, she posted a 578-179 record (.764) and was

at that time only the fi fth Division II coach to win 500 career matches. The Chargers made 10 trips to the NCAA tournament during Chin’s reign, reaching the top fi ve four times. Her awards include six AVCA Northeast Region Coach of the Year distinctions as well as eight New England Collegiate Conference Coach of the Year honors. Chin coached the Chargers to twelve 30-win seasons, including six straight. She is also recognized internationally as a top volleyball clinician.

As an administrator, Chin has served on over 30 national and regional committees. In addition to her most recent position as Chair of the Division II Management Council, her resume includes terms as chairperson for the NCAA Division II Volleyball Committee (1988-92), the NCAA Division II Baseball Committee (1997-2001), the NCAA Northeast Regional Football Committee (1999-2003), and the NACDA John McLendon Minority Scholarship Committee (1999-present). She served four years on the NACWAA Board of Directors (1993-96), and acted as the Volleyball Commissioner for the 1995 Special Olympics World Games held in New Haven.

A graduate of SUNY-Cortland with a Bachelor’s of science in physical education, Chin earned her Master’s of science degree in physical education from UNC-Greensboro.

DEPARTMENT OF ATHLETICS PHILOSOPHY

Higher education has lasting importance on an individual’s future success. For this reason, the emphasis for the student-athlete experience at the University of New Haven is a comprehensive program of learning and development in a personal setting. As an NCAA Division II program, our approach provides growth opportunities through academic achievement, learning in high-level athletic competition and development of positive societal attitudes in service to community. The balance and integration of these different areas of learning opportunity provide our student-athletes a path to graduation while cultivating a variety of skills and knowledge for life ahead.

The University of New Haven seeks to provide the world with leaders who can make a positive difference in a global society. Student-athletes are afforded unique opportunities for leadership because of the visibility provided through athletics competition. UNH’s intercollegiate program provides opportunities for its student-athletes to develop moral virtues, such as courage, self-confi dence, and integrity and to learn communication and teamwork skills associated with outstanding leadership. Thus the Department of Athletics helps the University satisfy its primary aspiration, which is to prepare students to lead purposeful and fulfi lling lives in a global society through experiential, collaborative, and discovery-based learning.

The Department of Athletics is committed to delivering intercollegiate athletics programs that are consistent with the University’s mission and generates the trust and support of its various constituencies. The goal of the department is to fi eld sports teams that compete successfully against other NCAA Division II teams while upholding the academic standards of the University of New Haven. The department is also committed to conducting its programs in strict adherence to the policies, rules and regulations set by the University’s administration, Board of Governors, the NCAA and the Northeast-10 Conference.

Through its programs, the department gives its student-athletes of different genders, races, religions, national origins and sexual orientation opportunities to participate in intercollegiate competition. The intercollegiate program will function free of discrimination with a University commitment to the adherence to Title IX and the Offi ce of Civil Rights guidelines. A major goal of the Department of Athletics is to help student-athletes realize the full potential of their athletic abilities while also increasing their intellectual capabilities and providing them a meaningful opportunity to earn a baccalaureate degree. The department will not compromise its commitment to educate and graduate its student-athletes.

Department of Athletics personnel are expected to represent the University in a manner consistent with UNH’s principles and values. All personnel are expected to perform their responsibilities with the highest standards of integrity, ethical behavior and sportsmanship at all times.
