2009 RHODE ISLAND MEN'S SOCCER

THE UNIvERSITy OF RHODE ISLAND is the largest university in the nation’s smallest state, but with 12,793 undergraduates and 3,111 graduate/professional students, URI is small enough to be friendly, intimate, safe and student-centered. In part because of its of its unique location - six miles from Rhode Island’s coastal beaches and the Narragansett Bay - the University has developed strong marine programs and has been designated a national Sea Grant institution.

THE 2008-09 ACADEMIC yEAR saw many of Rhode Island’s teams continue to build on their previous season’s successes. The Rhody baseball team led the way, recording a program-best 37 victories with wins over No. 8 Miami, No. 11 Oklahoma State and No. 25 Ohio State. Making their seventh consecutive appearance in the Atlantic 10 Championship - the league’s longest active streak - the Rams earned a first-round bye before defeating third-seeded Xavier (7-6) and top-seeded Dayton (9-2) to advance to the championship game. The URI women’s tennis program was equally as impressive, turning in a 15-4 record - including a perfect 6-0 mark in the fall - and winning its third consecutive New England Championship title.

what should Rhody soccer fans expect from the Rams in 2009?I.think.we.are.a.very.versatile.team,.being.able.to.play.both.possession.for.purpose.or.direct.when.necessary..It.all.depends.on.what.our.opponents.give.us.as.we.try.not.to.put.our.energy.into.worrying.about.the.abilities.of.our.opponent.but.rather.focusing.on.the.strengths.of.our.team.and.how.we.can.be.effective..Our.alums.and.fans.will.see.an.organized.team,.players.who.understand.their.roles.and.responsibilities.and.play.with.a.purpose..We.are.confident.it.will.be.exciting.attacking.soccer.with.a.lock-down.zonal.defensive.mentality..Our.philosophy.is.that.no.one.player.is.any.more.important.than.the.next.and.this.will.be.apparent.when.you.see.a.game..Eleven.players.defend.and.eleven.players.attack..We.play.with.emotion.and.commitment.to.the.name.on.the.front.of.the.jersey...It.should.be.a.lot.of.fun.to.watch.as.our.combination.of.youth.and.experience.should.serve.us.well.this.season.

Describe your recruiting philosophy and some of the specific things you look for in potential student-athletes.Philosophically,.we.are.looking.for.players.who.want.to.be.at.URI.and.experience.everything.the.Atlantic.10,.the.University.and.the.South.County.region.of.Rhode.Island.has.to.offer..Student-athletes.who.come.to.Kingston.must.have.a.desire.to.be.successful.on.the.field.and.in.the.classroom..Specifically,.we.look.for.intelligent.players.who.make.good.decisions.on.an.off.the.field..We.want.athletic.and.technical.players.who.can.adapt.on.the.field.and.are.open.to.learning.from.their.teammates.and.the.coaching.staff..I.also.look.for.players.who.love.the.game.and.embrace.each.moment.they.are.on.the.field.as.though.it.were.their.last..We.think.that.every.player.has.room.for.improvement.-.whether.its.tactical,.technical,.in.the.weight.room.or.on.the.track..We.are.confident.that.our.student-athletes.finish.their.careers.a.better.player.then.when.they.arrived.at.URI.

In your opinion, what are the keys to maintaining the balance between athletics and academics?I.think.the.key.is.organization.and.understanding.what.your.strengths.and.weaknesses.are.in.both.arenas..Athletics.and.academics.work.hand.in.hand.so.each.of.their.successes.depends.upon.the.other..It.is.a.challenge.to.balance.both.-.and.if.it.were.easy,.everyone.would.be.doing.it….but.they.aren’t..It’s.part.of.the.expectations.of.being.a.student-athlete.at.the.University.of.Rhode.Island..The.one.thing.I.always.ask.our.players.to.do.when.they.come.to.training.is.to.put.their.books.in.their.locker.and.concentrate.on.soccer..In.return,.when.they.finish.practicing.I.expect.them.to.hang.their.boots.up.and.focus.on.academics..Its.a.simple.philosophy.and.one.which.I.have.found.to.work..At.the.end.of.the.day,.you.can’t.have.one.without.the.other.and.I.think.the.players.recognize.and.embrace.this..

what are your thoughts on the Atlantic 10 Conference and what it takes to be successful in this league? The.Atlantic.10.is.tough.because.rarely.are.there.easy.games.-.no.matter.where.your.opponent.is.in.the.standings..The.teams.in.this.league.play.with.a.lot.of.determination.and.pride,.which.is.reflective.of.the.type.of.kids.that.attend.our.institutions..The.number.of.players.from.the.A-10.that.have.gone.onto.successful.professional.careers.in.Major.League.Soccer.shows.that.our.league.is.as.competitive.as.any.league.in.the.country..To.be.one.of.the.elite.teams.in.our.league.you.must.establish.consistency.as.well.as.a.history,.tradition.and.a.mentality.of.success..These.are.all.components.which.we.have.in.place.here.at.URI.-.and.as.long.as.we.are.able.to.maintain.excellence.in.these.areas,.the.Ocean.State.will.continue.its.tradition.of.successful.soccer..

Since joining the Atlantic 10 in 1987, URI has captured six championship titles – which is more than any other team in the league. what goes into building a program so rich in success and tradition?What.Ed.Bradley.built.before.I.got.here.was.a.combination.of.exceptionally.talented.players.fused.with.those.who.knew.their.roles.and.could.perform.their.duties.at.the.highest.level..It.takes.competitive.players.who.are.willing.to.sacrifice.their.own.personal.accolades.for.the.success.of.the.team.and.program..Those.individual.honors.did.come.with.winning.but.more.importantly,.that.winning.established.Rhode.Island.men’s.soccer.as.a.premier.program..As.we.all.have.seen,.there.are.many.of.examples.where.“success.breeds.success”.and.this.is.no.different.here..All.URI.needed.was.that.one.successful.team/era.of.players.-.then.everyone.who.followed.wanted.to.experience.what.those.guys.did..This.is.as.true.now.as.it.was.in.1987.when.URI.joined.the.A-10..Along.the.way,.there.can.be.some.bumps.and.stumbles.but.in.the.end,.the.roots.of.the.program.are.strong.and.it.would.take.a.lot.to.destroy.the.fruit.that.it.bears.

what are some of the benefits/home field advantages of playing at the URI Soccer Complex?Playing.at.home.is.great.and.our.players.look.forward.to.getting.out.to.the.URI.Soccer.Complex.each.and.every.time.they.can..The.surface.is.great.and.the.environment.can.be.electrifying..We.have.a.great.following.of.students,.alums,.parents,.friends.and.members.of.the.community.who.are.there.to.support.us.no.matter.what.the.result..I.have.to.admit.that.even.after.all.my.time.coaching.and.playing,.walking.out.to.our.field.on.a.cool.October.night.-.hearing.the.music,.seeing.the.lights.and.watching.the.players.warm.up.-.sends.chills.up.my.spine..I.haven’t.experienced.a.better.home.venue.in.my.time.coaching.

THE ATLANTIC 10 CONFERENCE... On March 2, 1975, the idea of what is now the Atlantic 10 Conference was conceived. What started as an eight-school, men’s basketball-only affiliation has grown into a 14-university, 21-sport league that is universally hailed as one of the best conferences in the country. That growth and prominence is a direct result of the ideals and commitments of the member institutions of the Atlantic 10 - the University of Dayton, Duquesne University, Fordham University, The George Washington University, La Salle University, University of Massachusetts, University of North Carolina at Charlotte, University of Rhode Island, University of Richmond, St. Bonaventure University, Saint Joseph’s University, Saint Louis University, Temple University, and Xavier University.

As. Dr.. David. M.. Dooley. embarks. on. his. first. year. as. president. of. the. University. of. Rhode. Island,. he. aims. to.strengthen.the.sense.of.community.and.discovery..With.a.strong.background.in.research.Dooley.believes.every.student.at.the.University.should.gain.experience.in.research.and.creative.work,.regardless.of.their.field.of.study.

"We. have. to. integrate. the. entire. undergraduate. experience. into. the. academic. goals. and. missions. of. the.University,".Dooley.said.."We.want.students.to.feel.everything.they.are.doing.at.URI.will.help.them.achieve.their.goals."

A.native.of.California,.Dooley.earned.a.bachelor.of.arts.in.chemistry.from.the.University.of.California.in.San.Diego.and.a.doctorate.in.chemistry.from.California.Institute.of.Technology.in.Pasadena..He.was.selected.in.May.from.among. three. finalists. for. the. University. of. Rhode. Island. position. after. a. nationwide. search. that. attracted. 55.candidates.

Dooley. has. more. than. 30. years. of. experience. working. in. higher. education. and. places. high. value. on. giving.students.a.well-rounded.university.experience..

"It's.a.simple.fact.that.the.kinds.of.skills.that.the.students.are.going.to.need.for.the.future.are.the.kinds.of.skills.and.experiences.that.are.going.to.be.hard.to.come.by.in.the.formal.classroom..We.need.to.prepare.students.for.things.we.don't.yet.know.exist,".Dooley.said.

Dooley.comes.to.URI.from.Montana.State.University. in.Bozeman,.Mont.,.where.he.served.as.provost.and.vice.president.of.academic.affairs..He.had.nearly.16.years.experience.as.chief.academic.officer.and.department.chair..He.led.the.chemistry.and.biochemistry.department.for.six.years.before.being.named.interim.provost.and.vice.president.for.academic.affairs.in.June.1999,.a.position.he.was.appointed.to.permanently.in.June.2001.

Montana. State. committed. itself. to. excellence. in. undergraduate. education. and. to. the. success. of. its. students..Dooley.helped.lead.the.strategic.planning.process.that.incorporated.these.goals.and.values.into.Montana.State’s.Five-Year.Vision.-.which.is.assessed.and.updated.annually.-.and.the.university’s.marketing.plan..
