A season of ups and downs in 2011 gave rise to a young core of talented players whose potentially dominant style of play took shape toward the end of the Mid-American Conference season. After remaining winless through its first 12 games, EMU earned three wins over the final six matches and styaed in the hunt to make the Mid-American Conference tournament. The Eagles will once again be led by 14th-year Head Coach Scott Hall, who has taken the squad to the postseason 11 times with one MAC title in 1999. Hall’s Eagles rank as one of the nation’s top academic programs, hav-ing attained 10th spot among all Division I teams in team GPA for the 2011 season. The 2012 group features 15 returning letterwinners along with seven starters and eight newcomers. EMU soccer fans will have plenty of opportunity to see the 2012 Eagles in action at Scicluna Field, as the squad plays a total of 10 home games which begins with a trio of non-conference tilts, Aug. 17, 19 and 26.

Defense The EMU defense will be captained by the lone senior on the 2012 squad, Jessica Thomas (Calgary, Alberta-Bishop Carroll). Thomas will take the place of long-time defensive anchor Julie Kaim, who was one of five play-ers lost to graduation last season. Among Thomas’ main responsibilities will shoring up an EMU back end which ranked 10th in the MAC in goals allowed in 2011. Thomas has played in every game since the start of the 2012 season and was selected to the All-Freshman team in 2009. In addition to Thomas, Emily Dzik (Troy, Mich.-Troy) is expected to build off of a successful first season which earned her a spot on the MAC All-Freshman team. Dzik was Eastern Michigan’s leading scoring contributor on the back end, netting two goals and adding an assist for five points. Junior Emily Kowalzyk (Tinley Park, Ill-Victor J.) and sophomores Marisa Kozikowski (Troy, Mich.-Athens) and Hallee Kansman (Farmington Hills, Mich.-North Farmington) also return to the defensive side of the ball. Kowalzyk saw action in 10 games last season, while Kozikowski played in 17 matches and Kansmann played in three. Coach Hall will put the remainder of the defensive duties on a group of newcomers which includes Jennifer Bentley (London, Ontario-London Secondary), Julia Lombardi (Oakville, Ontario-Abbey Park) and Megan Trapp (Plymouth, Mich.-Canton).

Goalkeeping The Eagles received an unexpected boost to their goaltending situation last season when Maggie Manville returned to the team to play out her final year of eligibility. Now with Manville departed, the Eagles must once again determine a clear top goalkeeper before the regular season gets underway. Junior Rachel Rye (Dearborn, Mich.-Edsel Ford) and redshirt freshman Anna Vess (Shelby Twp., Mich.-Eisenhower) return in 2012, with Rye having played two games last season. New to the team are redshirt freshman Jenna O’Dell (Troy, Mich.-Athens (Iowa State)) and freshman Megan McCabe (Arlington Heights, Ill.-Prospect). O’Dell joins Eastern Michigan after redshirting at Iowa State University during the 2011 campaign.

Forwards A lack of offensive production in 2011 prevented the Eagles from reach-ing the MAC Tournament for the first time since the 2006 campaign. Eastern

Michigan tallied just 16 goals on the year and had to endure a stretch of five games in which it was held off the scoresheet. In 2012, the Eagles return the one-two punch of reigning MAC Newcomer of the Year Angela Vultaggio (Chesterfield, Mich.-L’Anse Creuse North) and fellow sophomore and 2011 MAC All Freshman Team selection Bianca Rossi (Mississauga, Ontario-St. Marcellinus), the two of who combined for eight of the 16 goals scored. The offense will have to produce without the services of a graduated Chel-sea Detrick, whose 50 career points ranks sixth all-time in EMU annals. Filling that void will be junior Stephanie Clarke (London, Ontario-St. Thomas Aquinas), who will look to recapture the offensive success she achieved during her freshman campaign (four goals, six assists) in 2010. Also contributing to the EMU attack this season will be junior Allison Kaim (Palos Hills, Ill.-AA Stagg) and newcomers Sarah Deakin (Arva, Ontario-Medway) and Emily Lundh (Canton, Mich.-Salem). Midfield The Eagles’ strength this season could prove to be its experienced and versa-tile midfield. Despite the loss of twin sisters Amanda and Katie Marsh, coach Hall has several dependable options through the middle including co-captains

Cara Cutaia (Burlington, Ontario-Nortre Dame Catholic) and Megan Pedro (Fort Wayne, Ind.-Canterbury). Cutaia, a junior, solidified her reputation as a top two-way player in 2011, scoring two goals and adding four assists for eight points. Along with Cutaia and Pedro, reshirt junior Chelsie Oddan (Calgary, Alberta-Central Memorial) and sophomores Molli Krick (Novi, Mich.-Novi) and Martha Stevens (Bloomfield Hills, Mich.-Marian) are ex-pected to contribute to EMU’s bid for a MAC West Division title. Ellie Tillar (Cincinnati, Ohio-Turpin) is this season’s newcomer to the midfield. Schedule The 2012 schedule features 20 games including 10 matches at Scicluna field. Last season, the Eagles posted a record of 3-13-2 with a 2-4-1 mark at home and a 1-9-1 ledger on the road. Following a road exhibition matchup at Illinois State, Aug. 12, the regular season kicks off with a three-game home stand which begins against Pittsburgh, Aug. 17.

EMU earned a 2-2 tie with the Panthers last season in Pittsburgh, Pa. EMU then entertains Oakland, Aug. 19, and Butler, Aug. 26, before traveling to San Anto-nio, Texas to play UTSA and Lamar, Aug 31. and Sept. 2. The non-conference schedule wraps up with a day trip to Michigan State, Sept. 9, between home games against IUPUI, Sept. 7, and Detroit, Sept. 13. For a second straight season, the Eagles open the 11-game MAC schedule with a pair of road games, which includes a trip to Toledo, Ohio, to face the defending MAC Champion Rockets, Sept. 23. EMU plays its first MAC home game, Sept. 28, against Bowling Green, and then hosts West Division foe Central Michigan, Sept. 30. The Eagles will look to avenge last season’s 1-0 loss to the Chippewas, which cost the Green and White a spot in the postseason. Eastern Michigan’s three final home games will feature Ohio, Oct. 12, Kent State, Oct. 14, and Western Michigan, Oct. 25. The MAC Tournament gets underway, Oct. 28, with the quarterfinal round at campus sites. The top eight squads in the 12-team conference qualify for the tournament. Semifinal action picks up, Nov. 2, and the championship match will be held Nov. 4. All semifinal and final matchups will be held at the site of the highest remaining seed.

The Eagles bring back four of their sixf All-Mid-American Conference selections from 2009 while adding depth at every position.

The 2012 season marks Head Coach Scott Hall’s 14th year lead-ing the Eastern Michigan University women’s soccer team. Hall has been with the program since it came into existence in 1995, serving as assistant coach for four seasons before taking over as head coach in 1999. Hall, a former member of the EMU men’s soccer team from 1990-94, has a career record of 128-101-38 and a 82-48-22 mark in Mid-American Conference play. Under Hall, EMU squads have enjoyed six seasons of 10-or-more victories including a pair of 15-or-more win campaigns (1999, 2001). Hall’s teams have quali-fied for the MAC Tournament 11 times and captured one tournament title, two regular season titles and eight top-five finishes. His young 2011 squad experi-enced some growing pains, finish-ing with a 3-13-2 overall record and a 3-7-1 mark in the Mid-American Conference West Division. Despite falling short of a postseason berth for the first time since 2006, several of Hall’s players received individual honors for their outstanding play. Freshman Angela Vultaggio was named MAC Newcomer of the Year for her six-goal outburst late in the season. In addition, sophomore Stephanie Clarke was selected to the Capital One Academic All-Dis-trict Third Team by CoSIDA. During his first season as head coach in 1999, Hall led the Eagles to their first-ever Mid-American Con-ference title and NCAA tournament berth. During that memorable 1999 season, Eastern Michigan was ranked sixth nationally in team de-fense, with a 0.55 goals against average. The Eagles also finished the year with 13 shutouts, good for seventh in the nation. Goal-keeper Sarah Willis was named MAC Player of the Year following the season, along with five other Eagles garnering all conference honors. Hall was selected MAC Coach of the Year for his efforts, the first time an EMU soccer coach earned the award. Hall was named MAC Coach of the Year again following the 2001 season after going 10-4-1 in conference play. The 2003 campaign also proved to be a historic run for the Green and White. EMU opened up MAC play going unbeaten in the first nine games with a 7-0-2 mark en route to the MAC reg-

ular-season title and earning the No. 1 seed for the tournament with an 8-2-2 record. The Eagles hit double digit wins again during the 2004 campaign, going 10-7-3 with a 6-4-2 MAC record. After missing the tournament in 2006, Hall’s team bounced back with a 5-4-2 MAC record in 2007, earning the No. 5 seed for the postseason tournament. EMU lost a heartbreaking 2-1 overtime game to Bowling Green, ending the 2007 season with a 7-8-4 mark for the Green and White. The 2008 season was a return to the up-per echelon of the Mid-American Conference for Hall and the Ea-

gles. EMU made it to the championship match in 2008 before losing a tough 1-0 game to the University of Toledo. In 2009, the Green and White cracked the semifinals and were led by MAC Player of the Year Ashley Rodrigues. In 2010, the Eagles finished with a 9-7-5 overall record with a 6-2-3 mark in MAC play. Hall’s squad earned the No. 4 seed headed into the MAC Tournament but fell in a nail-biter to Western Michigan on penalty kicks in the opening round. Throughout his tenure with the Ea-gles, Hall has coached two MAC Players of the Year, 37 all conference selections, 40 Academic All-MAC picks and seven All-Great Lakes region performers. The 40-year-old Hall (10-12-71) took over the women’s soccer program following the tragic death of the pro-gram’s first head coach, Paul Scicluna, in the fall of 1998. He had served as assistant coach since the inaugural season in 1995. During his time as as-

sistant coach, the Eagles qualified for the MAC Tournament in 1997 and 1998. Hall also worked with his mentor at Total Soccer, Inc. as a counselor and instructor. A four-year varsity letterwinner at Grand Ledge High School (1985-89), Hall earned All-Capital Area Conference and All-League honors. He continued his career as a member of the Eastern Michi-gan University men’s soccer program from 1990-94, earning four varsity letters. An Eastern Michigan graduate, Hall earned his bachelor’s de-gree in elementary education in 1994. Hall and his wife, Sue, have a son Jack (7-22-05), and a daughter, Maya (6-21-07). They reside in South Lyon, Mich.

Providing leadership in education and diver-sity, the Mid-American Conference moves into its 65th year of service to the student-athlete. Since its inception in 1946, the Mid-American Conference has progressively grown and devel-oped into one of the most aggressive Division I conferences in the country. One of only 11 foot-ball Bowl Subdivision (FBS) conferences, the MAC named Dr. Jon A. Steinbrecher as its eighth com-missioner in the 65-year history of the league in March of 2009. Steinbrecher came to the MAC after serving six years as the commissioner of the Ohio Valley Conference. The league has grown its commitment to cham-pionships by expanding to six its number of neu-tral site post season events – football (Detroit’s Ford Field), volleyball (SPIRE Academy, Geneva, Ohio), men’s and women’s basketball (Cleveland’s Quicken Loans Arena), softball (Akron’s Firestone Stadium) and baseball (Avon, Ohio All Pro Freight Stadium). In 2010, four MAC football programs received bowl invitations and it marked the first time in conference history that the MAC had four or more teams receive bowl invitations in a three-year consecutive span. In addition, the MAC has sent four or more teams to bowl games in five of the last seven years. The four MAC programs that played in bowl games were: Miami (GoDaddy.com Bowl), Northern Illinois (uDrove Humanitar-ian Bowl), Toledo (Little Caesars Pizza Bowl) and Ohio (R+L Carriers New Orleans Bowl). The MAC record for bowl appearances is five, which hap-pened in consecutive years (2008, 2009) and only three times (2004, 2008, 2009) in conference his-tory. The 2010 season also witnessed Miami win the 2010 Marathon MAC Championship and re-cord the best turnaround in college football with an eight win improvement over the previous sea-son (1-11 in 2009). Northern Illinois entered the Marathon MAC Football Championship ranked No. 23 in the USA Today Coaches Poll and No. 24 in the Associated Press Poll. Two more MAC teams defeated Big Ten opponents during the regular season as Northern Illinois defeated Min-nesota, 34-23 in Minneapolis, while Toledo rolled to a 31-20 win at Purdue in West Lafayette, Ind. n 2010, the University of Akron Men’s Soccer team won its first National Championship by defeating Louisville, 1-0, in the NCAA College Cup. Akron junior defender Kofi Sarkodie was named Player of the Year by Soccer America, and Sarkodie was joined by senior midfielder Antho-ny Ampaipitakwong and junior striker Darlington Nagbe on Soccer America’s MVP First Team, as Ak-ron’s three honorees were the most by any school. In addition, Nagbe was presented the Hermann Trophy, the most prestigious honor in intercol-legiate soccer, as it marked the second consecu-tive year for a member of the Akron program to be honored with the Hermann Trophy (Teal Bun-bury, 2009). History was made in the 2011 Major League Soccer Super Draft as seven members of the Akron’s National Championship Men’s Soccer Team were drafted, including five of the first eight selections in the first round. This set an MLS draft record for the most first-round selections from a

single school. In 2010-11 for men’s basketball, the MAC set a conference mark as six programs received invites to postseason tournaments. Akron won the MAC tournament as the No. 6 seed and played Notre Dame in the NCAA tournament. Kent State won the MAC regular season title and represented the conference in the NIT with impressive road wins at St. Mary’s and Fairfield. Buffalo, Ohio and Western Michigan were invited to the CollegeIn-sider.com tournament, while Miami received an invitation to the College Basketball Invitational. Three freshmen were named to the Mid-Major Freshman All-America Team—Juwan Howard, Jr. (Western Michigan), Javon McCrea (Buffalo) and Trey Ziegler (Central Michigan), while Kent State junior Justin Green was named MAC Player of the Year and named All-America by three different organizations—named Honorable Mention All-American by the Associated Press, tabbed Mid-Major All-America by College Insider.com; and second team Mid-Major All-American by College Hoops.net. In wrestling, Central Michigan won its tenth consecutive MAC championship, while the MAC sent 23 wrestlers to the NCAA Division I Wres-tling Championship as Kent State’s Dustin Kilg-ore won the NCAA national championship at the 197 weight class. In addition, four grapplers secured All-America honors--Central Michigan’s Scotti Sentes (133), Ben Bennett (174) and Jarod Trice (285), along with Kent State’s Dustin Kilgore (197). Buffalo won its first championship in men’s swimming and diving, while Kent State won its 19th MAC title in men’s golf and received its 24th NCAA appearance. Ball State made its seventh automatic bid to the NCAA Men’s Tennis Tourna-ment. In baseball, Kent State won the MAC champion-ship and lost to Texas in the NCAA Regional Final. A total of 17 MAC student-athletes were selected in Major League Baseball’s 2011 Draft—including Kent State LHP Andrew Chafin to the Arizona Dia-mondbacks as a compensatory first round pick, 43rd overall. Women’s athletics continued to shine for the MAC this past year. For the first time in MAC his-tory, six women’s basketball programs were in-vited to postseason tournaments. Bowling Green won the MAC tournament and received the invi-tation to the NCAA tournament, while four pro-

grams were invited to the WNIT—Toledo, Eastern Michigan, Kent State and Central Michigan. In addition, Buffalo was invited to the Women’s Bas-ketball Invitational. Toledo’s women’s basketball program won the Women’s NIT, the first post-season championship in school history with wins over Delaware, Au-burn, Alabama, Syracuse, Charlotte and USC. In the WNIT Championship game, with a national television audience and sold out Savage Arena, Rocket junior Naama Shafir scored a career-high 40 points in the victory.

History of the MAC Based in Cleveland since July 1999 following a 15-year stay in Toledo, Ohio, the MAC has estab-lished historic measurements in both football and men’s and women’s basketball since moving to Northeast Ohio. The MAC was founded as a five-school league on February 24, 1946 in Columbus, Ohio with Ohio, Butler, Cincinnati, Wayne State and Western Reserve admitted as charter mem-bers. The Mid-American Conference has 12 full-time schools and a 13th, Temple, and 14th, UMass for football only (beginning in 2012). Comprising the East Division is the University of Akron (joined in 1992), Bowling Green State University (1952), University at Buffalo (1998), Kent State University (1951), Miami University (1947), Ohio University (1946) and Temple University (2007). The West Division members are Ball State University (1973), Central Michigan University (1971), Eastern Michi-gan University (1971), Northern Illinois University (1975-86, 1997), University of Toledo (1950) and Western Michigan University (1947). In 1946 men’s basketball was the first competi-tive sport in the MAC, which now sponsors a total 23 sports. Women’s sports were brought into the conference’s structure in 1980. For men, cham-pionships (11) are sponsored in football, basket-ball, baseball, cross country, soccer, swimming and diving, indoor track and field, outdoor track and field, wrestling, golf and tennis. For women, championships (12) are sponsored in basketball, softball, volleyball, cross country, field hockey, golf, soccer, swimming and diving, gymnastics, indoor track and field, outdoor track and field and tennis.

Students’ on-campus housing choices range from traditional dormitory-style rooms to apartments and include living/learning center options.

Where We’re Located Eastern Michigan University is located in historic Ypsilanti, about 10 miles east of Ann Arbor, 40 miles west of Detroit and just 20 minutes from Detroit Metropolitan Airport. It is an area rich in academic, research, technological and recreational resources. The University also has sites in Livonia, Jackson, Traverse City, Flint, Detroit and Monroe. EMU’s 800 plus-acre campus of scenic flora and wooded areas includes 18 miles of walkways and jog-ging trails and has 122 buildings throughout the academic and athletic campuses. Eagle Crest – Eastern Michigan’s conference center, golf course and resort – is located on the banks of nearby Ford Lake.Ypsilanti plays a leading role in industry and education. The city and the University have forged close ties that have lasted more than 160 years.

What Makes Us Unique In 1849, the Senate and House of Representatives of the State of Michigan formally paved the way for the establishment of Michigan State Normal School, with the exclusive purposes of instructing persons in the art of teaching; providing a good common school education; and giving instruction in the mechanic arts, husbandry, agricultural chemistry and the laws of the United States. Since its inception, Eastern Michigan, first as a Normal School, then as a College and finally as a Uni-versity, has grown and developed to respond to the ever-changing needs of society. Over the years, EMU has educated thousands of sons and daughters of Michigan, the nation, and the world. The University currently serves 23,000 students who are pursuing undergraduate, graduate, specialist, doctoral and certificate degrees in the arts, sciences and professions. In all, more than 200 majors, minors and concentrations are delivered through the University’s Colleges of Arts and Sciences; Business; Educa-tion; Health and Human Services; Technology, and its graduate school. Eastern Michigan’s exceptional faculty, students and alumni include CEOs from major businesses; a National Student Teacher of the Year, National Teacher of the Year, numerous Fulbright Scholars and Milken Family Foundation National Educators award winners; and several Michigan Teachers of the Year. EMU is regularly recognized by national publications for its excellence, diversity, and commitment to applied education.

Faculty/Staff Eastern Michigan University employs nearly 700 full-time faculty and 1,000 staff members. Ninety-four percent of EMU professors have doctoral de-grees or terminal degrees in their field. The student to faculty ratio is 19:1. Faculty work closely with students, and many involve students in their research. Recently, the University celebrated its 30th annual Undergraduate Symposium; a benchmark program for undergradu-ate research.

Community Outreach Eastern Michigan is making an impact nationally by channeling its academic research as a means of solving real-world problems. EMU currently has 14 research institutes and centers that focus on com-munity building and civic engagement, quality, com-munity and regional development, small business development, geospatial education, textiles, export assistance and product development. EMU is well known for merging theory and practice for the benefit of the community. Applied research leads to new knowledge, new jobs and new business. Annually, the university receives about $15 million in revenues for sponsored research and community service activities.

The Alumni Association Representing more than 142,000 alumni and friends, the Alumni Association sponsors social and service-related programs for more than 20 geographically-based and special-interest alumni chapters.

EMU’s Economic Impact Since its founding in 1849, Eastern Michigan has provided quality services to the residents of Ypsilanti, Washtenaw County, the State of Michigan and other states and nations. EMU’s total impact on the Michigan economy of an estimated $3.7 billion annually reflects a return of more than $42 for each dollar received from the state. The University’s total impact on the Michigan economy results in a contribution of $166 million in state tax revenue. Thus, EMU’s impact on state government tax revenue is $1.87 in taxes for each dollar received from the state.

Mission Statement Eastern Michigan University is com-mitted to excellence in teaching through traditional and innovative approaches, the extension of knowledge through basic and applied research, and creative and artistic expression. Building on a proud tradition of na-tional leadership in the preparation of teach-ers, we maximize educational opportunities and personal and professional growth for students from diverse backgrounds through an array of baccalaureate, master’s and doc-

toral programs. We strive to provide a student-focused learning environment that enhances the lives of students and positively impacts the community. We extend our commitment beyond the campus boundaries to the wider community through service initiatives, and public and private partnerships of mutual interest addressing local, regional, national and international opportunities and challenges.

Our History Founded in 1849, when the state of Michigan was just 12 years old, Michigan State Normal School was designated by the state legislature as the first institution to educate teachers to serve the public schools. The University thus began, somewhat humbly, as the sixth teacher education institution in the nation. A campus that today comprises more than 800 acres was once a four-acre plot with one building and two programs of study – a classical course and an English Course. The school’s name changed several times – to Michigan State Normal College in 1899; to Eastern Michigan College in 1956; and finally to Eastern Michigan University in 1959. During its first 100 years, the institution certified thousands of teachers and developed the broad-based curricula that ultimately prepared it for university status. Within that new university, three colleges emerged: Education, Arts and Sciences and the Graduate School. The University has since expanded three more times; adding the College of Business in 1964, the College of Health and Human Services in 1975 and the College of Technology in 1980. More recently Eastern Michigan has developed Extended Programs and numerous community-focused institutes. The University has enhanced its learning environment through structural initiatives during the past several years. Recent construction includes the Terrestrial and Aquatic Research Facility (1998), the Convocation Center (1998), the Bruce T. Halle Library (1998), the John W. Porter College of Education Building (1999), the Everett L. Marshall College of Health and Human Services Building (2000), the Vil-lage residence hall (2001), University House (2003), new Student Center (2006), and the new Science Complex (2010).

The City of Ypsilanti Ypsilanti is a city in Washtenaw County with a population of 22,362. Originally a trading post established in 1809 by Gabriel Godfroy, a French-Canadian fur trader from Montreal, a permanent settlement was established on the east side of the Huron River in 1823 by Major Thomas Woodruff. It was incorporated into the Territory of Michigan as the village Woodruff’s Grove. A separate com-munity a short distance away on the west side of the river was established in 1825 under the name “Ypsilanti”, after Demetrius Ypsilanti, a hero in the Greek War of Independence. Woodruff’s Grove changed its name to Ypsilanti in 1829, and the two communities eventually merged. Henry Ford and the automotive industry came to Ypsilanti in the 1930s and beautiful Ford Lake was created to generate hydroelectric power for the manufacturing plants. During World War II, Ypsilanti became home to the Willow Run Bomber Plant, a factory that would employ 100,000 work-ers.

Entering her fifth year as the presi-dent of Eastern Michigan University, Dr. Susan W. Martin has made a sig-nificant impact on the campus in her short time in Ypsilanti. Named the 22nd president of EMU May 14, 2008, she is the first female president in EMU’s 162-year history. Martin officially took office July 7, 2008. Since joining EMU she has led the institution in two consecutive years of enrollment growth, kept tuition, room and board at 0% increase for 2010-11, enhanced the quality of education by investing in hiring new faculty, and en-hanced the living and learning facilities by making $195M in capital improve-ments to the campus. “I am thrilled to be chosen for the honor of leading this great University, which has a strong history of excellent education and a bright future,” said Martin. During her inaugural address Martin set fourth an ambitious vision for the

university. The goals included building on the pillars of aca-demic excellence, refreshing alumni relationships, com-prehensive fundraising and earning the public’s trust. Under Martin’s guid-ance in 2008, EMU was again recognized as a “Best Midwestern College” by The Princeton Review for the sixth straight year. Additionally, for the fifth consecutive year, The Princeton Review recognized Eastern’s College of Business as one of the “Best 296 Busi-ness Schools” in the nation. Eastern Michigan also was awarded a 2009 Michigan Historic Preservation Net-work’s (MHPN) Government/Institutional Award for its preservation of the Univer-sity’s core historic campus. Prior to coming to EMU, Martin was the provost and vice-chancellor of academic

affairs at the University of Michigan-Dearborn. The majority of Martin’s higher edu-cation career was at Grand Valley State University, where she taught and pub-lished as a professor of accounting and taxation. Martin served as director of the master of taxation program, direc-tor of international business programs,

and chair of the accounting and taxa-tion department. In June 2001, Martin joined the GVSU provost’s office and served in roles as assistant, associate, and executive asso-ciate vice president of academic affairs. One of her major duties in that office was to help manage the $154 million budget for the Academic Affairs Divi-sion. Before GVSU, Martin was deputy state treasurer for the Bureau of Local Gov-ernment Services for Michigan from June 1981-June 1984. She also was the commissioner of revenue for the state of Michigan from 1985-1988. Martin received her doctoral degree in accounting from Michigan State University in 1988 and her master’s de-gree in accounting from MSU in 1976. She earned her bachelor’s degree from Central Michigan University in 1971. In 2009, Martin received the MSU Department of Accounting and Infor-mation Systems Alumna of the Year Award. Martin is a member of the boards of directors of the Michigan Educational Trust as well as Ann Arbor SPARK, a non-profit organization that seeks to bring businesses to the Ann Arbor area. She is married to Dr. Larry Martin, professor of economics at Michigan State University, and has three children and two grandchildren.

The mark of an exceptional athletics program is the progress that is made each year. And under the leadership of athletics direc-tor Dr. Derrick Gragg, the Eastern Michigan University department of athletics has turned in successful campaigns in each of his first five years at the helm. During Gragg’s first year at EMU in 2006-07, the department set a school and Mid-American Conference record by capturing a remarkable eight team conference titles, adding a league post-season crown and recording two runner-up finishes. The MAC-record eight team championships eclipsed the mark of six held jointly by Central Michigan University (2003-04) and Western Michigan University (1984-85). In 2007-08, Gragg’s second as athletics direc-tor, EMU followed up the record-breaking eight championships in 2006-07 with four league regular-season titles and one MAC Tournament crown and the Eagles secured the Reese Trophy which is awarded annually to the top overall men’s athletics program in the league. Eastern had won the prestigious Reese Trophy three previous times (1987-88, 1990-91 and 1995-96). Gragg was nationally recognized for his lead-ership in 2008-09, earning the Black Coaches & Administrators (BCA) Administrator of the Year Award. He received the award at the BCA National Convention and Expo Awards Banquet, May 29, 2009, in Indianapolis, Ind. The Eagles won a pair of MAC titles during the 2008-09 campaign in men’s cross country and swimming, while finishing as the runner-up in men’s golf, men’s indoor track, men’s outdoor track, women’s golf and women’s soccer en

route to a second place finish in the Reese Tro-phy standings. Eastern continued to excel in 2009-10 with a trio of MAC team titles, 30 individual MAC Cham-pionships and 60 student-athletes named to the All-MAC teams. Gragg also helped spearhead the construction of EMU’s $3.9 million multi-purpose indoor athletic practice facility located near the north end of Rynearson Stadium. The 2010-11 season proved to be another record-setting campaign for EMU Athletics. The women’s outdoor track and field team won in 11 years to go along with the men’s cross country team capturing its 15 MAC crown. The Eagles finished near the top in the battle for the Mid-American Conference all-sports championships. The women’s athletic program turned in third place showing in the race for the Jacoby Trophy, while the men’s athletic program turned in its fifth consecutive top five finish in the battle for the Reese Trophy. The 2011-12 fall and winter revenue-gener-ating sports programs had a banner season, ranking as the third-best combined winning percentage for the football, volleyball, men’s and women’s basketball programs since joining the MAC in the 1976-77 academic year. Eastern posted a .593 winning percentage during the 2011-12 season between the four revenue-generating sports, while coming out victorious in 62.50 percent of their MAC tilts which ranks first in its history.

Eastern Eagles Fight Song

“Eastern Eagles, hats off to you!Fight, fight, fight for ole EMU.Look to the sky, the Eagles will fly,the bravest we’ll defy.... Rah,rah, rah!”

“Hold that line for ole Green and White.Sons and daughters show your might.So, FIGHT, FIGHT! for ole EMU and vic-tor-y!”

EMU Alma Mater

Eastern, sacred Alma Mater to your name we shall be true.Ever marching on to victory, we’ll stand by to see you through,Softly floating on the breeze, verdant green with white of snow,This our banner we will carry in our hearts whe’er we go.

Go Green

Go Green, roll up the score.Go Green, let’s get some more.Raise a cheer for old Green and White.Let’s show them we came here to fight.Go Green, vic’try we’ll claim.Go Green, let’s win this game.We’ll always fight for old EMU.Come on and let’s go Green!

Since the 1991 season, Eastern Michigan University athletic teams have gone by the nickname “Eagles.” The Eagles name was officially adopted on May 22, 1991, when the EMU Board of Regents voted to replace the existing Huron nickname and logo with the new one. EMU originally went by the nicknames “Normalites,” “Men from Ypsi” and various other titles through the years before “Hurons” was adopted in 1929. The “Hurons” first came into being as the re-sult of a contest sponsored by the Men’s Union in 1929. On Oct. 31 of that year, a three-person committee, composed of Dr. Clyde Ford, Dr. Elmer Lyman and Professor Bert Peet, selected the name “Hurons” from the many entries in the contest. The name was submitted by two students, Gretchen Borst and George Hanner. Hanner was working at the Huron Hotel at the time of the contest and was no doubt as much influenced by his place of employment as by the Huron Indian tribe. The runner-up name in that contest was Pioneers. EMU began investigating the appropriate-ness of its Huron Indian logo after the Michigan Department of Civil Rights issued a report in October 1988 suggesting that all schools using such logos drop them. The report indicated that the use of Native American names, logos and mascots for athletic teams promoted racial stereotypes. At that time, four colleges, 62 high schools and 33 junior high/middle schools in Michigan used Indian logos or names. The EMU Board of Regents voted to replace the Huron name with Eagles, taken from three recommendations from a committee charged with supplying a new nickname. The other two final names submitted were Green Hornets and Express.

Student-Athlete Support Services Academic, personal and professional support are essential to college success. At EMU, Student-Athlete Support Services (SASS) helps student-athletes reach their full potential. Our philosophy is to offer an academic support program, integrated with the University, that will assist all student-athletes with their transition into college. This all-encompassing support continues throughout each student-athlete’s collegiate career, until the day he or she receives a diploma, lands a job or enters graduate school. Being proactive rather than reactive, our staff does not wait for an academic crisis to occur. We gather important background information and build an aca-demic profile on each student-athlete, assessing his or her needs in advance. Services provided through SASS include the following: programs that focus on student-athletes’ special needs, monitoring academic performance, pro-viding learning assistance, assisting with registration procedures, assisting in monitoring athletic eligibility, providing priority registration and making sure that athletes are advised about current NCAA, MAC and University rules and regulations. Freshmen and transfer student-athletes encounter a major transition when making the switch from high school or community college to a university. These students, while adjusting to their new routines, receive extra attention and support. College is not easy. But with hard work and dedication from both the student-athlete and the support staff, the student-athlete can have a successful college experience. The success of Eastern’s student-athletes hinges on their willingness to seek assistance from SASS as well as other University student services. SASS staff members continually refer student-athletes to the Admissions Office, Academic Advising Center, Career Services Center, Health Services, the Records Office, Financial Aid and The Holman Learning Center. Faculty members also provide assistance to student-athletes through advising in course selection and provid-ing additional help with courses when requested.

Athletic Training and Sports Medicine The Eastern Michigan University Sports Medicine Department has a long his-tory and reputation for excellence in the health care of student-athletes and the education of athletic training students. Founding practitioners Gary Strickland, Ron Venis and Dr. Wally Roeser envisioned a goal of first-class prevention, man-agement and rehabilitation of athletic injuries for all student-athletes. Although the department continues to grow, its primary mission remains the same. The student-athletes participating in intercollegiate athletics receive comprehensive health care from an expansive sports medicine team. The Eastern Michigan University Sports Medicine staff is led by Dr. Tara Master-Hunter, Dr. Zoe Foster, Dr. David Alvarez, Dr. George Pujalte, Dr. Wally Roeser, Dr. Bruce Miller, Dr. Don Wurtzel and head athletic trainer Steve Nordwall. Ad-ditionally, the staff consists of two primary care sports medicine fellows, three full-time staff athletic trainers, two full-time athletic training clinical educators, five graduate assistant athletic trainers and the team dentist. Our sports medi-cine staff works in conjunction with various medical professionals within the community who provide nutritional, dental, vision and other specialized services for our student-athletes. At Eastern Michigan University, the philosophy of the Sports Medicine staff is two-fold: to provide a high standard of medical care through effective preventive and management programs, and to facilitate an effective post-injury rehabilita-tion process for a safe return to competition. In all cases, the ultimate well-being of each student-athlete is considered our number one priority, not only while they compete at Eastern Michigan University, but during their lifetime as well. The Sports Medicine staff operates out of three campus athletic training facili-ties in the Convocation Center, Bowen Field House and the Rynearson Stadium team building.

Sports Performance/Strength and Conditioning Our Sports Performance Program applies a complete approach to scientifi-cally and practically progress each individual athlete. Our purpose is to improve all components that will aid in achieving maximal athletic performance while reducing the occurrence of injury. We incorporate athletic based, free weight, multi-joint, and multi-directional movements which vary from a diverse col-lection of strength and conditioning disciplines to prepare each athlete for the general and specific demands of their sport. Standards that will be implemented at all times are: Integrity, Attention to Detail, Quality before Quantity, and Execu-tion before Innovation. Assuming quality thought and effort have been put into a sports performance program, all else being equal, the program feels that these three components are usually separating an elite level program from the average. Incorporating Daily Competitions – The ability for athletes to compete in an every day setting is critical to the success of team and individual sports. Anything from team relay’s, to 1 on 1 tug of wars, to using a dumbbell weight heavier than the previous week. I simply make the statement to my teams, “WIN THE DAY.” Work harder – beat your last weeks sets/reps/weight/time, COMPETE! There is competitive nature in all mankind. Sometimes it takes a little extra effort on the coaching end to see it. Fill your team with competitors and your program will take care of itself. Physical and Mental Sport Transfer – Training to the specifics of the sport, and style that the head coaches are teaching is an essential way to succeed at any level. Find out what the sport coaches are looking to achieve and speak their same language. You are an addition to their staff, hop on board and cater your philosophy to their needs. Giving each athlete specific examples of on field/on court experiences where success can either be earned or an opportunity can be lost. Being able to make athlete’s understand the importance of mental tough-ness that is needed in the weight room and how it transfers over to their sport. The pain, the physical and mental struggles they endure in each training session is setting them up for success for their competitive season. Fight for every rep just as you would for any rebound, blocked shot, interception, or stolen base. Make references back to their closest contests that might have been decided by one play – (or one rep). Positive Influential Environment – Do athletes leave the weight room looking to return for more or dreading the next time they have to mope through one of the most silent hours of their day? Each session, from the minute the first athlete walks in, to the last grueling minute they are dragging out, fill the room with ENERGY!!! Push them through their toughest moments and coach every rep. Show each and every athlete that you care about their progress. Stay vo-cal, provide positive feedback as well as constructive criticism, play that latest hip-hop track and find a way to create a positive training environment.

The Eastern Michigan University Office of Athletics Compliance is committed to a com-prehensive compliance program that educates student-athletes, prospective student-athletes, institutional employees, community members and boosters about the importance of adhering to NCAA, Mid-American Conference and institu-tional rules. The commitment to compliance en-sures institutional control over the department of athletics. The existence of a successful com-pliance program depends on the willingness of coaches, administrators, staff, student-athletes and boosters to be cognizant of NCAA, MAC and institutional rules.

WHAT IS COMPLIANCE? At Eastern Michigan University, the Office of Compliance works within the department of athletics and the University to ensure EMU's compliance with all applicable NCAA, MAC and institutional rules. In doing so, the compliance office is charged with the following tasks:

Educating administrators, coaches, staff, • prospective student-athletes, current stu-dent-athletes and boosters about NCAA, MAC and institutional rules;Developing monitoring systems to ensure • compliance with NCAA, MAC and institu-tional rules (e.g., recruiting, academic eli-gibility, financial aid, awards and benefits, amateurism and agents);Investigating and reporting violations of • NCAA, MAC and institutional rules.

ARE YOU A BOOSTER? You are a booster if you are or ever have:

Been a member of a booster organization • that supports EMU athletics (e.g., EMU Ath-letic Club, E-Gridiron Group);Made any financial contributions to the • athletics department;Been involved in promoting EMU's athlet-• ics program;Been a season ticket holder; or• Provided benefits to enrolled student-ath-• letes or their relatives or friends.

You can become a booster if you provide ben-efits to prospects, student-athletes, their rela-tives or friends and any of the following state-ments are true:

The relationship between the athlete (or • parents of the athlete) and the individual providing the benefits developed as a re-sult of the athlete's participation in athlet-ics or their reputation as an athlete;The relationship began only after the ath-• lete become a prospect;The relationship began only after the ath-• lete had achieved notoriety due to his or her athletic ability or reputation;The pattern of benefits increased after the • athlete attained notoriety as a talented athlete.

ONCE A BOOSTER ALWAYS A BOOSTER. Once an individual is identified as a booster, the person retains that identity forever! This is true even if the individual no longer contributes to, or is involved with, EMU's athletics program.

WHO IS A PROSPECTIVE STUDENT-ATHLETE? A prospective student-athlete (prospect) is a student who has started classes for the ninth grade, students enrolled in preparatory schools and two-year colleges are also considered pros-pects. An individual remains a prospect even after he/she signs a National Letter of Intent.

WHAT IS AN EXTRA BENEFIT? An extra benefit is any special arrangement by a EMU employee or booster to provide a pros-pect, student-athlete or their relatives or friends a benefit not expressly authorized by the NCAA. Examples of impermissible benefits include, but are not limited to, the following:

Gifts of cash, clothing, equipment or any • other tangible item;A special discount, payment arrangement • or credit on any purchase or service;Loan of money or co-signing of loans;• A vehicle, use of a vehicle, or any transpor-• tation expenses;Free or reduced-cost services, purchases or • rentals;Entertainment on- or off-campus; or• Free or reduced-cost rent or housing.•

WHAT ARE THE CONSEQUENCES? EMU is responsible for the actions of its boost-ers. If a booster provides an impermissible ben-efit to a prospect, student-athlete, their relatives or friends, EMU may be subject to penalties from the NCAA and Mid-American Conference. When a violation occurs, regardless of intention, it can:

Jeopardize the eligibility of prospective • and current student-athletes; Result in the EMU athletics program being • penalized by the NCAA and/or the Mid-American Conference; and Cause you to lose benefits or privileges • associated with the athletics department (i.e., booster club membership, ticket privi-leges).

QUESTIONS? The above information is a brief overview of compliance and rules pertaining to boosters and their interactions with prospective student-athletes. If you have any questions about any NCAA, MAC or institutional rules, please contact Chris-topher Hoppe at 734.487.3263 or [email protected]. For more information on compli-ance and boosters, please visit the Office of Athletic Compliance's website at: EMUEagles.com/compliance

RECRUITING DO'S AND DON'TS Only EMU coaches may be involved in the recruiting process. Boosters may not make any recruiting contacts with prospective student-athletes, Boosters are prohibited from the fol-lowing:

Do not telephone, write or make in-person • contact with a prospect for recruiting pur-posesDo not contact a prospect's coach, princi-• pal or counselor in an attempt to evaluate the prospectDo not become involved in making ar-• rangements for a prospect, the prospect's relatives or friends to receive money or financial aid of any kindDo not visit a prospect's school to acquire • films or transcripts in an attempt to evalu-ate the prospect's academic or athletics eligibilityDo not have contact with a prospect, their • relatives or friends during any of their vis-its to EMU's campusDo not contact student-athletes enrolled • in other four-year institutions regarding the possibility of transferring to EMU

The EMU Athletic Club provides vital financial support to more than 550 student-athletes at Eastern Michigan University as they strive for excellence on the court and in the classroom. Nearly 1,000 donors generously supported our outstanding scholar-athletes each year. Established in 1994, the EMU Athletic Club raises funds in three key areas for EMU’s 21 varsity athletic teams: annual-use operating funds, endowment, and facility related projects. Today, annual-use giving is the most critical area of support needed by the Athletic Department. These contributions directly support the operating budgets of our teams and help provide the most basic needs to our coaches and student-athletes, including compre-hensive national recruiting efforts, out of region travel to maintain nationally competitive schedules, equipment such as uniforms, balls, nets, bats, and much more. Gifts to any of our teams, or to the Eagles for Excellence Fund (which will be used for the most urgent needs of the athletic department), are an investment in the future leaders of the state of Michigan. Join the EMU Athletic Club today and make a difference for EMU Athletics.
