Fifth Season At CornellUrsinus ‘84

The Robert E. Gallagher ‘44Coach of Men’s Basketball

STEVEDONAHUE

Steve Donahue completed hisfourth season as head basketballcoach at Cornell with the programpointed in the right direction.

A tremendous motivator, Donahue has set lofty goals for hisprogram. While moving up the Ivy League standings is theimmediate challenge, building a program that can competefor Ivy League titles and NCAA berths is the main focus.

In 2003-04, Donahue led a team with just one senior to itsthird straight season of improvement. The 11 wins overall wasthe most by a Big Red team in five years, as were the club’s sixIvy wins. Cornell improved its scoring average nearly 10 pointsper game, went from a -3.0 to a +2.3 rebound margin andlowered its opponentfield goal percentage(ranking second in IvyLeague play at .426).Cornell’s pressure de-fense generated 236steals, good for secondin the Ivy League and aschool record. It wasnearly a special seasonfor the Big Red, whichdropped seven games,including four in Ivy play,by five points or less or inovertime. The Big Redwill use those games aslearning experiences,but also motivation,when it heads into the2004-05 campaign withfour returning startersand 11 returning letterwinners.

Donahue developedKa’Ron Barnes into a first-team All-Ivy selection in 2004, the Big Red’s first player to behonored as one of the league’s top five players in seven seasons.

During the off-season, Donahue and the Big Red made itsfirst foreign trip, spending 10 days in Australia. While there,Cornell competed against a schedule of semi-pro clubs,going 3-1 leading into the 2003-04 campaign.

Donahue’s 2002-03 squad nearly doubled its previous season’swin total with its 9-18 finish, while its fifth-place ranking in theIvy League was its highest since 1999. Barnes was namedsecond-team All-Ivy League, while Lenny Collins earned theAncient Eight’s Rookie of the Year Award.

Along with his philosophies on the court, Donahue hasaccepted the gauntlet thrown down by the top programs inthe Ivy League and upgraded the non-conference schedule.Cornell has played a participant in the NCAA championsipcontest each of the last two years, including eventual nationalchampion Syracuse in 2002-03. Last year, the Big Red hosted

eventual national runner-up Geor-gia Tech. He has played teamsfrom power conferences such asthe Atlantic Coast Conference(ACC), Atlantic 10, Big Ten, BigEast and Mountain West Confer-ences. This year’s schedule includestrips to Syracuse, Atlantic 10 foesDayton and St. Bonaventure and2003-04 Patriot League championLehigh.

Off the court, Cornell players are expected to succeed inthe classroom and contribute in their community. Big Redplayers make appearances in local schools, speaking tostudents of the importance of a good education.

Donahue became the fourth Robert E. Gallagher ‘44Coach of Men’s Basketball at Cornell on Sept. 6, 2000. Hewasted little time making an impact on and off the court.

Despite joining the program a little more than two monthsbefore the team’s first contest in 2000, Donahue beganmolding his team. By the end of the season his emphasis onhard work and dedication to the program paid off in a winover Ivy League champ and NCAA participant Princeton anda two-point loss to league runner-up Penn, teams thatdefeated Cornell by a combined 40 points during the firstturn through the Ivy schedule.

Despite a rash of injuries that cost the Big Red 54 gamesamong its top eight players during the 2001-02 season, Donahue

led a team that relied on eight freshmen, the most of anyDivision I school in the country, to a nearly identical record as inhis first season. The team’s biggest improvement could be seenin its defensive play, as the squad lowered its field goalpercentage defense from .463 in Donahue’s first season to .428in his second year. The squad also broke school records for 3-pointers made in a game (14) and a season (200) as Donahue’sfull-court offensive philosophy began to take shape.

Renowned as a top recruiter and for his offensive mindwhile an assistant at the University of Pennsylvania, Donahuelearned the trade from some of the nation’s top coaches.

Donahue served as an assistant coach and recruiting coordi-nator under Fran Dunphy at Penn for 10 years. During histenure as a Quaker assistant, he was heavily involved in therecruitment of five of Penn’s top 20 all-time scorers. He was alsoinstrumental in the Quakers winning six Ivy League titles in hislast eight years there, advancing to the NCAA tournament fivetimes and earning national recognition with a top 25 ranking.

His duties also included practice preparation, game coach-ing, scouting and academic monitoring of players. Donahueserved as the head coach of the Quakers’ junior varsity programfrom 1990-95 and compiled a record of 75-12(.862). He also served as the director of thePenn Basketball Coaches Clinic and thedirector of the Quaker Basketball Camp.

Prior to joining Dunphy’s staff at Penn,Donahue coached for two seasons at Phila-delphia University. During his two seasonsthere, the Rams won 20 games each seasonand also competed in the 1989 NCAA Divi-sion II tournament. Thus, since 1989,Donahue has been an inte-gral part of programsthat have gone to sixpostseason tournaments.Plus, he has the uniqueexperience of qualifying forthe NCAA tournament in allthree divisions (including the Divi-sion III tourney as a player with Ursinus).

Donahue served as an assistant for currentLafayette head coach Fran O’Hanlon at MonsignorBonner High School, helping to guide Bonner tothe 1987-88 Philadelphia Catholic League Champi-onship.

Donahue began his coaching career at Spring-field High School under Skip Werley, his formercollege coach. He served as head coach of thejunior varsity and assistant coach for the varsityteam for three seasons.

It was during his playing days at Ursinus Collegein Collegeville, Pa., that Donahue developed hisleadership skills. He captained both the baseballand basketball teams as a senior, earning fourletters in both sports. As a freshman, Donahuehelped the basketball squad finish 23-8 and ad-vance to the NCAA Division III tournament.

A 1984 graduate of Ursinus with a bachelor ofarts degree in economics and business admin-istration, Donahue is currently working on hismaster’s degree in organizational dynamics atthe University of Pennsylvania.

Along with the always tough Ivy League schedule, Cornellwill face 2003-04 NCAA tournament teams Lehigh, Syracuseand Dayton on the road, as well as St. Bonaventure from theAtlantic 10. The Big Red will compete in the Pepsi MaristClassic, the program’s first in-season tournament in twoyears. Included among the non-conference home gamesare contests against Patriot League foes Lafayette andBucknell, the annual Coaches vs. Cancer Classic contestagainst crosstown rival Ithaca College and a contest againstNortheast Conference regular season co-champion St. Francis (N.Y.).

“I think it’s a very good schedule in allaspects. I think it’s challenging, but wecan go in and compete with almostevery team on the schedule,” Donahuesaid. “I like the idea of playing atournament early on because youget used to playing back-to-back. Weplay teams like Syracuse and Daytonand St. Bonaventure, which gets youready to play big games on the road. Bothof those things reallyprepares you for the

While 2003-04 was another year of improvement, it wasalso nearly a special season ... the Big Red dropped sevengames, including four in Ivy play, by five points or less or inovertime. The Big Red will use those games as learningexperiences, but also motivation, for this season. The seniorclass of Eric Taylor, Cody Toppert and Chris Vandenberghave been with Donahue from the start and each ismotivated to go out on their own terms.

“I’m extremely happy with where the program is at atthis point,” Donahue said. “We have a terrific core groupthat understands what is expected day in and day out onwhat it takes to be a Cornell basketball player. That, to me,is extremely important. I have been very happy with theprogress we’ve made over the past few years, and I believethis year we can take an enormous step to make a hugeimpact in the Ivy League race.”

While the 2003-04 season was one that featured a run-and-gun type offense thanks to the scoring talents of Ka’RonBarnes ‘04, who graduated as Cornell’s fifth-leading scorerall-time, the new campaign will put an emphasis back ondefense. The Big Red limited opponents to .426 shooting inIvy play a season ago (second in the conference) and led theAncient Eight in rebounding (37.7 rpg.) and ranked secondin rebounding margin (+2.2)

After improving the program’s win total each of the last two seasons, head coachSteve Donahue is ready for his team to make an even bigger step in 2004-05 ...contending for the Ivy League title.

A 5-0 start in league play a season ago gave the Big Red a taste of what it is capableof. Now Donahue has a team comprised entirely of his recruits for the first time andrelishes the chance to continue to help the Big Red climb the standings, somethingit has also done each of the last two years. With eight of the team’s top 11 scorers,including three starters, returning, and a talented group of newcomers joining theveterans, the fifth-year head coach will have the players to do just that.

Ivy League season. We play the better Patriot teams, withLehigh, Bucknell and Lafayette. I think it’s a very balancedschedule and I’m excited about it.”

The BackcourtThe loss of Ka’Ron Barnes, last year’s top

scorer in the Ivy League, will be an obvious hole,but Donahue has plenty of directions he canturn to in the backcourt. Cornell’s leadingreturning scorer, a pair of underclassmen look-ing to earn starting positions and several new-comers poised to earn immediate playing timemake up a backcourt that is deeper than lastyear’s group.

Senior Cody Toppert had a breakout season in 2003-04and looks to build on his year-by-year improvement. A

passionate and emotionalleader on the court, Toppertaveraged 14.6 points as ajunior, bumping his scoringaverage 5.0 points per gamefrom the previous year. Theleft-hander is one of the topshooters in the Ivy Leaguewho moves well without theball. The durable Toppert hasstarted every game he hasplayed in his Cornell careerand enters his final seasonneeding 66 points to becomeCornell’s 19th 1,000-point

scorer. The All-Ivy candidate has been one of the bestrebounders in the Ancient Eight from the guard positioneach of the last three seasons and has become a much-improved defender.

Junior David Lisle brings a great deal of versatility to theguard position. A strong, physical guard, Lisle is a strongdefender who also shoots the ball at a high percentage,rebounds and passes. He averaged 3.0 points and 1.7rebounds while averaging 16 minutes per game off thebench. He saw action in all 27 games with a pair of starts.Lisle has a strong post game for a guard and has improvedhis shooting range to become a reliable 3-point threat.

Sophomore Graham Dow will have an opportunity to takeover at the point. Dow opened the season strong, earningIvy League Rookie of the Week honors in early December. Heended the season ranked in the top 10 in the Ivy League insteals while shooting 47 percent from the floor. The formermember of the Canadian junior national team has quickhands and is a relentless defender. He is also a threat frombeyond the arc with the quickness to blow by a defenderand create an easy shot for a teammate.

Another sophomore, Kevin App, earned the respect of histeammates and the coaching staff with his hard work afterjoining the team as a walk-on last season. The Silver Spring,Md., native had two points and two steals while playing innine games as a reserve. His tenacity on defense and hisability to shoot the ball make him an important contributoron the scout team.

Several newcomers will also have a chance to break intothe rotation. Freshmen Jason Canady, Khaliq Gant and WillScott will add depth and an infusion of energy into thelineup.

Canady can play either position in the backcourt and wasa prolific scorer at the Millbrook School. He has the ability tobreak down a defense with the dribble and can also find theopen man (4.5 apg. in high school). He will need to refinehis defense to find a spot in the rotation.

Gant can also play at either guard spot. Known as a topshooter, he was one of three Division I players this pastseason to come off the Tabor Academy squad. He possessesgood quickness and will transition toward playing morepoint guard as a rookie.

Scott is a regarded as a tremendous outside shooter whobrings good size to the position. A heady player, he wasranked among the nation’s top 50 fifth-year players this pastseason while playing at Blair Academy in New Jersey.

The FrontcourtFor the first time in Donahue’s tenure, the Big Red will

have tremendous depth in the post ... and that depth hasplenty of size. Cornell’s players in the post average 6-8with five of the players standing that tall or better.

Senior Eric Taylor will spend his third season as Cornell’scaptain and returns as one of the top big men in the IvyLeague. The league’s top returning rebounder, Taylor is anaggressive defender who takes pride in his work on theoffensive and defensive glass. The Big Red’s all-time leaderin field goal percentage, the Latham, N.Y., native has a soft

touch in the lane and canplay with his back to thebasket or facing the hoop.The 6-8 senior is also anexcellent passer out of hisspot in the high post.

surprise as much as senior center ChrisVandenberg. The 6-10 product of Harley,Ont., was one of the Big Red’s toprecruits three years ago, but severalknee injuries have limited him to just15 games played and 147 total

minutes in three seasons. Heenters the 2004-05 seasonhealthy for the first time since

his rookie year. He has the ability to makean impact on both ends of the court when

healthy.Sophomore Andrew Naeve was Cornell’s

most improved player from the beginning tothe end of the season and was an importantfactor on the defensive end in the second half ofthe year. Naeve ranked among the league’s top10 shot blockers despite his limited playingtime. He has long arms, good timing and hasbecome stronger and more aggressive on thedefensive end. On offense, Naeve can hit themid-range jumper and has an array of im-proving post moves from which to choosefrom.

guard-like skills. Mitchell earned a spot in the rotation late inthe season and showed tremendous athletic ability and apenchant for being able to hit the open jumper.

Like the backcourt, a few newcomers will impact therotation. Junior Ryan Rourke and freshman Shawn Oliversonboth have tremendous upside, with the ability to impact theprogram right away.

Rourke was a junior college All-American at Mesa Commu-nity College after spending his freshman year at the AirForce Academy. A cerebral player with a feathery shootingtouch from the perimeter, Rourke was tutored at Mesa byformer NBA player Alton Lister. He is a strong rebounderfrom the small forward position and brings toughness andexperience to the squad.

Oliverson has the size (6-10, 245pounds) and strength to physically matchup with any center in the Ivy League.The native of Preston, Idaho, is an ag-gressive player down low on both endsof the court. He has good hands andexcels at rebounding and blocking shots.How well he adjusts to the speed of theDivision I game will determine how muchplaying time he will earn.

Ihekweazu will sit out the 2004-05 seasonunder NCAA transfer guidelines after com-ing to Cornell from Wofford College. TheHouston, Texas, native averaged 1.1 pointsand 1.3 rebounds at the Rock Hill, S.C.,school. An undersized power forward at 6-5, Ihekweazu is a tremendous athlete with asolid basketball background. The sophomorewill be a key part of the Big Red’s scout teamwhile adjusting to the Big Red’s offense anddefensive schemes this season.

2004-05 SEASON NOTESTREY BIENThe Big Red will enter the 2004-05 season having hit at leastone 3-pointer in 422 straight games. Cornell surpassed the400-game plateau when the Big Red connected on three treysvs. Ithaca on Dec. 2. The last time Cornell did not hit a 3-pointerin a game was against Denison in the season opener of the1988-89 season (0-for-2). Since the 3-point shot came intoeffect in NCAA play during the 1986-87 season, Cornell hashit at least one shot behind the arc in 473 of 477 games,connecting on 2,573 treys, an average of 5.39 per game. TheBig Red has hit a 3-pointer in all 108 games coached by SteveDonahue.

LAST IVY TITLECornell is the last team other than Penn or Princeton to earnthe conference’s automatic bid to the NCAA tournament. TheBig Red went 11-3 in Ivy League play and 17-10 overall duringthe 1987-88 season, running off 11 straight conference winsat one point during the year. Cornell faced Arizona in the first

round of the national tourney, dropping a 90-50 decision.

TAYLOR MADE FOR CAPTAINSenior Eric Taylor will serve as team captain for the Big

Red in 2004-05, making him the first-ever three-yearcaptain for the Cornell basketball program. He

became the first sophomore to serve as captainfor the Big Red in 2002-03 and last year becameone of just xx Big Red players to serve as captainfor two years.

BIG RED PLAYS THE BESTCornell has played at least one NCAA finalisteach of the last two seasons, facing 2002-03NCAA champion Syracuse at the Carrier Dome(85-62 loss) and hosting 2003-04 Division Irunner-up Georgia Tech (90-69 loss) a seasonago. This season, Cornell will play four teamsthat participated in last year’s NCAA tourna-ment, as it will visit Bucknell, Dayton and Syra-

cuse as well as playing Ivy foe Princeton.

TWO SET SIGHTS ON 1,000 POINTSSeniors Eric Taylor and Cody Toppert enter

their final seasons within striking distance ofbecoming the 19th and 20th players in Cornellhistory to score at least 1,000 career points.Toppert needs 666 points, while Taylor is 287points shy of reaching the milestone.

Collins built off a solid freshmanseason with an even better

sophomore campaign. A versatile player capable of seeingtime in the front or backcourts, Collins became a reliableoption on the offensive end as wel las a terror in the passinglanes on defense. A consistent shooter who has a well-developed mid-range game, Collins is equally adept atgetting to the basket. His defensive abilities will also beutilized in the team’s matchup zone, as he has quick handsand long arms to go along with a strong basketball sense.Physically, Collins has the strength to finish around thebasket and rebound on both the offensive and defensiveglass. He has also taken an increased leadership role on ateam that has six newcomers in 2004-05.

2003-04 Season ReviewThe 2003-04 Cornell men’s basketball season was unquestionably one of the

most exciting in recent history. Records were set, individual goals were recognizedand the collective group continued its march toward its goal of winning the Ivychampionship.

Head coach Steve Donahue’s Big Red finished theseason 11-16 overall and 6-8 in Ivy League play, a two-game improvement from the previous year in bothcategories. Cornell improved its scoring average nearly10 points per game, went from a -3.0 to a +2.3 reboundmargin and lowered its opponent field goal percentage(ranking second in Ivy League play at .426). Turnoverswent down, steals and blocks went up and free throwpercentages increased. Everything you could ask for gotbetter.

What was another season of improvement was nearlya special season ... the Big Red dropped seven games,

including four in Ivy play, by five points or less or in overtime. The Big Red will use thosegames as learning experiences, but also motivation, when it heads into the 2004-05campaign with three returning starters and nine returning letter winners.

Everywhere you look, the Big Red mantra of constant and consistent improvement wasobvious. With a core of returning players, Cornell will be expecting to continue that trend.

THE YEAR OF KA’RON ...Senior Ka’Ron Barnes was named to theNational Association of BasketballCoaches (NABC) All-District II secondteam in 2003-04, becoming the firstCornell player to earn that distinctionsince John Bajusz in 1987. Barnes wasthe only Ivy player named to a team,becoming the eighth Cornell player toearn all-district honors, and just the

second in 36 years. He also became the first Cornell playerto earn first-team All-Ivy honors in seven years (JohnMcCord, 1997) with his unanimous selection to the firstteam.Barnes was the 15th Big Red player in programhistory to join the first team and is one of 24 Cornellplayers to earn All-Ivy honors more than once. The two-year co-captain averaged 20.1 points, 3.5 rebounds, 4.6assists and 1.9 steals per game as a senior. He closed hiscareer ranked fifth at Cornell in career scoring with 1,396points and fourth in assists (329) and steals (149). A two-time Ivy League Player of the Week, Barnes scored indouble figures in 37 of his final 38 games with 20+ pointsin 16 of 27 games as a senior.

CORNELL’S QUICK START IN IVY PLAY (5-0) GARNERED IT PLENTY OF NATIONAL ATTENTION, EARNING

MENTIONS IN ESPN.COM’S BRACKETOLOGY AND CINDERELLA WATCH COLUMNS, AS WELL AS BY

CBSSPORTSLINE.COM AND THE SPORTING NEWS.

PACKING THEM INCornell drew a record 4,762 fans for itsseason opener against Georgia Tech,the largest crowd to watch the Big Redin Newman Arena. Below are the crowdsthat surpassed 4,400 in the 4,473-seatarena:

4,762 - Georgia Tech, 2003-04 (L, 69-90)4,500 - Columbia, 1989-90 (W, 71-68)4,473 - Princeton, 2003-04 (L, 64-69)4,473 - North Carolina, 1990-91 (L, 64-108)4,473 - Princeton, 1997-98 (L, 59-72)4,473 - Columbia, 1992-93 (L, 64-74)4,403 - Columbia, 1993-94 (L, 58-67)

The Big Red’s transition game was trig-gered by its defensive pressure, and it hadnever been better than it was in 2003-04.Cornell closed out the season with a schoolrecord 236 steals, surpassing the 223 bythe 1992-93 squad. Lenny Collins led theway with an Ivy-best 52 steals, whileKa’Ron Barnes had 51. The duo rankedthird and fourth, respectively, in a seasonat Cornell.

The Big Red scored 75 or more points 10 times in 2003-04 after reaching that mark just four times the previ-ous year and 11 times in the first three seasons underhead coach Steve Donahue. The Big Red’s average of70.5 points per game was the highest since the squadposted 70.8 ppg. during the 1990-91 campaign.

The Big Red will enter the 2004-05 season having hit at leastone 3-pointer in 422 straightgames.

For the second time in 2003-04 and the sixth timein 12 years playing at Newman Arena, Cornell hada soldout crowd (4,473) for the 69-64 loss toPrinceton on Feb. 13. The battle for first place wasjust short of the season-opening crowd of 4,762that saw Cornell drop a 90-69 decision to GeorgiaTech.

For the second straight year, Cornell played a team during the regular season that advanced to the national championshipgame. In 2003 it was Syracuse, the eventual national champion. This past year it was Georgia Tech, which Cornell hosted inthe season opener. The eventual national runner-up got all it could handle from the Big Red, which led by as many as eightin the first half and trailed by just one with 13 minutes to play.

Cornell’s victory over Army at BlueCross Arena continued the BigRed’s success when visiting the cityof Rochester. The game was partof a doubleheader that also fea-tured Niagara topping Bucknell,90-71.

Cornell University/Realizing a Bold DreamCornell University/Realizing a Bold DreamIn the mid 1800s, two New York state senators, Ezra

Cornell and Andrew Dickson White, shared the bold dreamof founding a “truly great university.” Cornell, a plain-spoken inventor, wanted “an institution where any personcan find instruction in any study,” including the mechanicalarts and agriculture. White, a scholarly graduate of Oxfordand Yale, yearned to establish a university where “truth shallbe taught for truth’s sake” in the arts and sciences. Togetherthey created a nonsectarian university that was the first inthe eastern United States to admit women and that pio-neered the concept of elective courses. Their egalitarianvision and innovative ideas, which set Cornellapart at its opening in 1868, continue to guidethe university today.

Cornell includes 13 colleges and schools. Onthe Ithaca campus are the seven undergraduateunits—the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences; theCollege of Architecture, Art, and Planning; the College ofArts and Sciences; the College of Engineering; the Schoolof Hotel Administration; theCollege of HumanEcology; and theSchool of Industrial andLabor Relations—aswell as four graduateand professional units:the Graduate School,the Law School, theJohnson GraduateSchool of Management,and the College of Vet-erinary Medicine. (TheWeill Medical College and the Weill Graduate School ofMedical Sciences are in New York City.) An Ivy Leagueuniversity that is also the land grant institution of NewYork State, Cornell is a unique combination of public andprivate divisions committed to teaching, research, and

“I would found an institution where any personcan find instruction in any study.”

EZRA CORNELL

Today Cornell’s undergrads come from all 50 U.S. states

and 120 countries. They come from cities, suburbs and

rural areas, close to where you grew up or halfway around

the globe. They come in all colors, sizes, shapes and per-

suasions — religious, political, sexual, philosophical.

Gifted students — musicians, inventors, athletes, artists,

actors, poets, farmers; rising doctors, lawyers, professors,

scientistsm engineers, financiers, apparel designers, sys-

tems analysts, political activistsm labor organizers — who

work hard. They are outstanding achievers, creative think-

ers, dreamers, movers and shakers.

Four thousandcourses offered bynearly 100 depart-ments, more inter-disciplinary pro-grams than you’llfind at any otheruniversity in thecountry, researchopportunities forundergraduates innearly every field,and faculty-guided independent study give you the wherewithal to shapea program that speaks to your interests and passions and grows with youover your four years here.

At a research institution, scholars don’t just acquire knowledge — they help create it. Cornell’sfaculty members have garnered such prizes as the Nobel and the Pulitzer, not to mention MacArthur“genius” grants and countless other honors.

These same luminaries teach undergraduate classes and include students on their research teams.Cornell serves as a land grant institution, receiving funding from New York State for its colleges of

Human Ecology, Agriculture and Life Sciences and Veterinary Medicine and for its School of Indus-trial and Labor Relations. In return, the university offers reduced tuition to state residents in thosecolleges and helps citizens apply the research generated here to improve the state’s economy and thehealth of its people.

A network of more than 200,000 alumniaround the world supports the efforts of currentstudents by sponsoring internships, offeringcareer counseling and mentorship, and provid-ing much of the financial support that maintainsthe university’s world-class libraries, laborato-ries, and faculty.

Famed for its woodlands, gorges, and waterfalls, the 745-acre main campus is on a hilltop overlooking Ithaca, a livelycity of about 30,000 situated at the southern end of 44-mile-long Cayuga Lake, in the Finger Lakes region of New Yorkstate. Campus attractions of special interest include theJohnson Museum of Art, the Cornell Plantations, and theCornell Lab of Ornithology and Sapsucker Woods wildlifesanctuary. The heart of New York state’s wine-growingregion is less than an hour away, as are the Corning GlassCenter and Museum and the Watkins Glen auto circuit. NewYork City is about a four-hour drive from Ithaca.

Ithaca, N.Y.Ithaca, N.Y.Nestled in the heart of New York State’s beautiful FingerLakes region is Tompkins County, with Ithaca at its center.Long known for the excellence of its educa-tional and research institutions, and morerecently for its multitude of scenic wonders,Ithaca is indeed, “Gorges.”

IthacaFactsCity of Ithaca Population: 28,775

One of America’s first urban cartographers, SimeonDeWitt, mapped Manhattan but settled in Ithaca. It is a townthat the Interstate never found, which perfectly fine for mostof the locals. But, as one restaurant hidden away on thewaterfront used to say, “Once you find us, you’ll love us.”

Ithaca is located in New York state’s lush Finger Lakes region,plunked down right at the southern tip of scenic Cayuga Lake,which is a veritable magnet for outdoorspeople. The lakeprovides swimming, sailing, kayaking, and fishing opportuni-ties. In a cold year, there’s evenice-fishing! And bring yourboots – all of them. Ithaca isbuilt on hills and surroundedby forests, providing opportu-nities for cross-country skiing,snowshoeing, hiking, biking,and climbing. But just enjoyingthis gorgeous, glacier-cut land-scape is sport enough for some.

A couple of years back, theUtne Reader called Ithaca “TheMost Enlightened Town inAmerica.” They cited our civicinvolvement (in Ithaca, poli-tics is a participation sport,and nearly everybody plays),bookstores, natural-food su-permarkets, and popular free-ranging farmers’ markets. We even have our own monetarysystem based on bartering for good and services: IthacaHours. (Don’t worry, we accept U.S. currency, too.)

But Ithaca is lots more than arguments and organic tofu.There is a strong cultural component – museums, galleries,theatre, and film. Ithaca was an early home to America’sfilm industry; its gorges were perfect for trolley-car-over-the-bridge scenes, its ravines ideal for the lost-in-the-wildsscenes. There are 15 screens in town (these run the gamutfrom huge cineplexes to tiny art-film rooms). On campus,Cornell Cinema shows almost 400 films a year.

Ithaca is also home to a ballet company, chamberorchestra, baroque orchestra, concert band, several theatregroups, and the oldest small opera company (it recentlycelebrated its 50th birthday) in the U.S. Should you manageto spend a summer here, don’t miss the Ithaca Festival,featuring food, dancing, performances of all kinds, andmore food; and our own world-music version of Woodstock,the Finger Lakes GrassRoots Festival of Music and Dance,

which draws thousands fromaround the planet.

And there’s no shortage of lounges,dance clubs, and sit-down joints. Lovereggae, ska, heavy metal, techno, hip-hop, blues, or do-it-yourself garage-band music? We’vegot them all. Restaurants range from the country’s mostfamous vegetarian café, Moosewood, to French traditionalto Thai, Indian, and Japanese, and taqueria to bagelry.

Coffeehouses abound, and Ithaca boastsseveral old-timey diners, two of themopen round the clock. Eateries come in allflavors and price ranges, and you’ll findthem along the waterfront, tucked intothe old Lehigh Valley Railroad station, inumbrella’d pavilions on the Commons,and in high-energy Collegetown. And wehave three humongous supermarkets –visitors from “the big city” take hometrunkloads of comestibles.

Despite its off-the-beaten path location,Victorian and Greek revival architecture,and the woods, farms, and vineyards thatare only a few minutes’ drive out of town,Ithaca has a youthful energy and cosmopoli-tan outlook that make it a perpetually excit-ing place to be. It’s a mecca for students,intellectuals, inventors, artists, musicians,

and computer geeks.Perhaps this is why, in this “community of passionate

people,” some never achieve escape velocity, choosing tostay in this powerfully beautiful place instead of chasing thebig bucks in bigger places.

Jeffrey S. Lehman, Cornell’s 11th president, is a legal scholar and a Cornellalumnus who also holds the title of professor in the Cornell Law School. He tookoffice on July 1, 2003, after serving for nine years as dean of the University ofMichigan Law School. Lehman is the first alumnus to lead the University and alsoholds the faculty rank of professor of law at Cornell.

Lehman has strong loyalties to both Cornell and Michigan, and he has a keeninterest in intercollegiate athletics. At Michigan, he sometimes would be one of thefew spectators wearing a Cornell sweatshirt at Wolverine football games. Fortu-nately, there was no conflict of commitment since Cornell has not played Michiganin football since 1952. At Cornell, Lehman will have even more use for his Cornell

sweatshirt since his son Jacob Lehman, a Cornell junior, coxes for the Big Red’s lightweight crew.“I believe that intercollegiate athletics offers two important benefits to a university,” Lehman said. “It provides an

opportunity for student-athletes to compete at a high level in their chosen sports, and it brings the community together,across backgrounds and professional interests, as few other activities can.”

During his deanship at Michigan, Lehman emerged as an articulate spokesman on complex legal issues of nationalsignificance, including the use of affirmative action in university admissions. The U.S. Supreme Court ruled in favor of theUniversity of Michigan Law School’s approach to affirmative action in a landmark case in 2003. Lehman’s own research hasaddressed other issues at the intersection of law and public policy, including higher education finance, corporate taxationand welfare reform. At Michigan, he also won acclaim as an academic innovator who introduced significant changes at theLaw School to foster public service and internationalism and to improve the teaching of legal writing.

Lehman earned a bachelor of arts degree in mathematics from Cornell in 1977, his master’s degree from the Universityof Michigan Institute of Public Policy Studies in 1981 and his juris doctorate magna cum laude from the University of MichiganLaw School the same year. While in law school, he served as editor-in-chief of the Michigan Law Review and was elected tothe Order of the Coif.

After earning his degrees, he served as law clerk to Chief Judge Frank M. Coffin of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the FirstCircuit and then as law clerk to Associate Justice John Paul Stevens of the Supreme Court of the United States. He was anassociate in the Washington, D.C., law firm of Caplin and Drysdale before joining the Michigan law faculty in 1987. In 1995,The National Law Journal named him one of 40 “Rising Stars in the Law.”

The Ivy League wrapped the 2003-04 season with distinc-tion on both the field of competition and in the classroom —ranking among the nation’s top conferences in both the UnitedStates Sports Academy Directors’ Cup as well as the CoSIDAAcademic All-America program.

In the final tally, the Ivy League was one of three DivisionI conferences to have at least one CoSIDA First-Team Aca-demic All-American per school (joining the Big 10 and theSEC). TIn all, the League set records for Academic All-Ameri-cans in two-year (27), three-year (41) and four-year (52)periods as well as a single-season mark for CoSIDA AcademicAll-District selections (66).

The Ivy League was seventh among in the Division Iconferences in the 2003-04 United States Sports AcademyDirectors’ Cup (formerly the Sears Cup), which is annuallyawarded to the most successful broad-based program in thenation. In terms of average member ranking, the Ivy was behindjust the six BCS conferences.

The Ivy LeagueThe Ivy LeagueSponsoring conference championships in 33

men’s and women’s sports, and averaging morethan 35 varsity teams at each school, the Ivy Leagueprovides intercollegiate athletic opportunities formore men and women than any other conferencein the country. All eight Ivy schools are among the“top 20” of NCAA Division I schools in number ofsports offered for both men and women.

The most diverse intercollegiate competition inthe country for both men and women is alsoamong the best. In recent years, the Ivy League hasbeen synonymous with national excellence inmen’s and women’s soccer, lacrosse, rowing, fenc-ing and squash, and individual Ivy athletes haveregularly excelled as well in football, track and field,wrestling and swimming. Ivy teams have enjoyedsignificant success in the opening rounds of theNCAA Division I basketball championships.

This successful competition in Division I na-tional athletics is achieved by approaching athlet-ics as a key part of the student’s regular under-graduate experience: with rigorous academic stan-dards, the nation’s highest four-year graduationrates (the same as those for non-athletes), andwithout athletics scholarships. Ivy athletic pro-grams receive multi-million-dollar institutionalsupport as part of each institution’s overall aca-demic programs, independent of win-loss or com-petitive records and together with extensive pro-grams of intramural and recreational athletics.

THE HISTORYThe designation “Ivy League” first appeared at

the typewriter of Caswell Adams of the New YorkTribune in 1937. The tag, premature of any formalagreement, was immediately adopted by the pressas a foreshadowing of an eastern football leaguewhich, at the time, was big news to everyone exceptthe athletic directors involved.

For years, the Ivy members had already beenallied in leagues in basketball, ice hockey, baseballand swimming. Further common competitionwas found in the Heptagonal Games Association,which included Army and Navy, in the sports ofbaseball, track and field, and swimming. Throughthese other scheduling arrangements, the Ivy ath-letic directors were used to dealing with each otherin matters of administration or the exchange ofcalculated confidences.

As a result of these dealings, and through exten-sive presidential meetings and discussions, the first“Ivy Group Agreement” — addressing only foot-ball — was signed in 1945. While the 1945 state-ment did not address any scheduling issues, it didaffirm the observance at the eight institutions ofcommon practices in academic standards, eligibil-ity requirements and the administration of finan-cial aid for athletes. These tenets are what still bindthe Ivies together today and all continue to bebased on the desire to secure competition withothers having like philosophies. The athletic direc-tors, at the direction of the presidents, were thenmore formally organized as a committee for coop-erative endeavor in the details of athletic adminis-tration and a dean from each school was appointedas a committee to exchange information on eligi-bility and to act for the presidents in cooperationwith the athletic directors.

In February 1954, what is more commonly ac-cepted as the founding date for the Ivy League, theIvy Group Agreement was reissued to extend itsphilosophical jurisdiction to all sports and to foster,

insofar as possible, intra-group competition. In layman’s terms,that meant a complete round robin schedule in football, begin-ning with the 1956 season. Such an agreement —assuringseven spots on an eight- to 10-game schedule to Ivy opponents—required numerous concessions from each institution andmarked a high point in intercollegiate cooperation.

THE FUTUREThe basic intent of the original Ivy agreement was to improve

and foster intercollegiate athletics while keeping the emphasison such competition in harmony with the educational purposeof the institutions. While football is where it started, the IvyLeague today is nationally recognized for its level of success —absent of athletic scholarships — while rigorously maintainingits self-imposed high academic standards. The Ivy League hasdemonstrated a rare willingness and ability, given the currentnational pressures on intercollegiate success, to abide by theserules and still compete successfully in Division I athletics.

Located on the campus of Princeton University, the IvyLeague (still known officially as the Council of Ivy GroupPresidents) continues to grow under the leadership and direc-tion of Executive Director Jeffrey H. Orleans. Since taking thepost in 1984, Orleans has become a respected voice on thenational scene of intercollegiate athletics.

Thecomprehensive, year-round programs includestrength and power development, mobilityskill training and conditioning, and are imple-mented in a motivating, team-oriented envi-ronment.

Prior to his arrival at Cornell, Howley wasthe assistant director of strength and condi-tioning at East Carolina University from 1991-1995. While there, the Pirates participatedin two bowl games (1992 Peach Bowl and1995 Liberty Bowl), qualified for the NCAAbaseball regional tournament (1994) andplayed in the NCAA basketball tournament(1993).

Howley was a graduate assistant strengthand conditioning coach at Auburn Universityfrom 1989-91, where he earned his master’sdegree in exercise physiology. The Tigers, the1989 Southeastern Conference co-champi-ons, were the 1990 Hall of Fame Bowl and the1991 Peach Bowl champions, as Howley alsoserved as an assistant coach with the specialteams.

A 1988 graduate of Tulane, Howley earneda bachelor of arts degree in history and was athree-year letterman and two-year startingoffensive lineman on the football team.

The Friedman CenterThe Friedman CenterChampions are crowned

during the season, but cham-pionships are earned longbefore competition begins.Cornell’s 900 varsity athleteshave exclusive access to oneof the newest and best train-ing facilities in the nation—the 8,000-square-foot Fried-man Strength and Condi-tioning Center. Completed in June 1997, this impressive $2 millionaddition to Bartels Hall reflects the university’s strong commitment toathletic excellence. Coaches and team members alike credit the center,its world-class equipment, and first-rate staff with adding immensely tothe success of the Big Red athletic program.

The Friedman Center contains free-weight, selectorized, plyometric,and cardiovascular equipment and has been designed to meet thediverse training needs of Cornell’s athletes. The center can accommo-date up to 100 users at a time without compromising safety or function.Its unique features include air-conditioning, a 175-watt stereo system,and damage-resistant flooring.

Cornell’s varsity strength and conditioning program—nicknamed“Big Red Power”—focuses on enhancing performance and preventinginjury. The new facility and equipment enable the staff to prescribeyear-round sport-specific programs with variety and precision.

Before the training programs are designed, the muscular andmetabolic needs for each sport—and for each position within thesport—are analyzed. Athletes are then assessed to identify theirindividual strengths and weaknesses, and follow-up assessments areconducted at regular intervals. Comprehensive workouts are pre-scribed to address deficiencies and promote the development of skillsused during competition.

Injury prevention also is emphasized. Through resistance training,the number and the severity of injuries are reduced. If an injury doesoccur, the strength and conditioning staff works closely with the sportsmedicine staff to ensure asafe and complete rehabilita-tion. The objective is to allowthe athlete to resume full par-ticipation as soon as possible.
