2014-15 ANNUAL REPORT

From the desk of Barry Alvarez

DAVID STLUKADAVID STLUKA

I find myself often reminding people that winning is hard. A big reason I feel I have to do that is because of how successful our programs have been. Final Fours, Big Ten championships, January bowl wins … those things just don’t happen. But it sure is fun

when they do. We’re coming off another tremendous year in 2014-15, one that I hope everyone enjoyed and appreciated. In the fall, our men’s cross country, women’s soccer and volleyball teams started it off by winning conference titles. When the men’s basketball team swept the Big Ten regular-season and tournament championships and the women’s hockey team took home the WCHA playoff crown, that gave us six titles, a truly phenomenal showing by our teams. Sixteen of our 23 sports competed in postseason play, another remarkable achieve-ment. A year after shocking the country and advancing to the NCAA title game, the vol-leyball team was back at it, giving eventual NCAA champ Penn State all it could handle in the regional title game. The football team, playing in its fifth-straight January bowl game, knocked off SEC power Auburn in dramatic fashion. The women’s hockey team cemented its status as one of the sport’s powers by mak-ing its eighth Frozen Four appearance in the last 10 seasons. And who will ever forget the men’s basketball team ruining Kentucky’s dream of an undefeated season and advancing to the NCAA title game for just the second time in school history. Winning never gets old and either does the commitment our student-athletes have to performing in the classroom. A total of 191 of them earned Academic All-Big Ten honors and the cumulative GPA of all of our student-athletes was 3.018 following the spring semes-ter. Leading the way was women’s golfer Kimberly Dinh, who finished her UW career with a perfect 4.0 GPA while graduating with a degree in chemical engineering and earned an NCAA postgraduate scholarship. We are equally as proud of our student-athletes’ dedication to giving back to the com-munity. Last year they combined to volunteer for nearly 7,000 hours of community service through more than 300 appearances in the community. An astounding 16 student-athletes volunteered more than 50 hours of their time to community service in 2014-15. As I walk around our facilities I can’t help but be reminded of the enormous generosity of our many donors. Our student-athletes are set up to have success on and off the field in large part because of what your donations have allowed us to do. Supporting more than 900 student-athletes, about half of which are on scholarship, is a large endeavor made easier by your support. Lastly, I would be remiss if I didn’t thank our fans. Our gameday atmosphere is the envy of many schools around the country. We ranked among the top five in the country in atten-dance in four different sports. For the upcoming season, our season ticket renewal rate is 99 percent for men’s basketball and 95 percent for football. In addition, Badger fans support us everywhere we go, as was witnessed by anyone who was in Indianapolis on Final Four weekend. You truly are the best fans in the nation! Please take some time to peruse this report and look back at 2014-15, re-live some great memories, and see what all goes in to making the Badgers one of the most successful athletic programs in the country. Thanks for all you do!

On, Wisconsin!

conference championships and watched a total of 16 sports compete in post-season play.

Frank KaminskyMen’s Basketball

Kaminsky entered the 2014-15 season with some of the greatest expectations in school history. Somehow, the 7-footer managed to exceed them, becoming a consensus national player of the year and leading the Badgers to a historic season.

The first player in Wisconsin history to win national player of the year, Kaminsky filled his mantle with the Wooden Award, Naismith Trophy, Oscar Robertson Trophy and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar Award. Hopefully he reserved room for plaques, too, as he was named national player of the year by the Associated Press, Sporting News and USA Today. A consensus first-team All-Amer-ican, Kaminsky became just the third Big Ten Player of the Year in UW history.

Simply put, Frank "The Tank" Kaminsky did it all for Wisconsin and drove the Badgers back to the Final Four and one step further in 2015, reaching the national championship game. Kaminsky was the only player in NCAA Division I to average at least 17.0 points, 8.0 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.5 blocks per game. The senior from Lisle, Illinois, led UW in nearly every major cat-egory: points, rebounds, assists, blocks, field goal percentage, 3-point field goal percentage, free throws and free throw attempts.

Kaminsky's stellar senior campaign fueled the Badgers to both the Big Ten regular season and tournament championships, as well as the program's first-ever No. 1 seed in the NCAA tournament.

2014-15 Athletes of the Year

Ivy MartinWomen’s Swimming

It's hard to describe the career of Martin and feel that you've fully done it justice. However, her senior campaign cemented her as one of the greatest to represent the Motion W on their swim cap.

Nowhere was that more evident than at this year's Big Ten championships. Martin dove into the pool seven times and came out a champion all seven times, setting a Big Ten record by claiming seven titles at the conference meet. Martin was named Big Ten Swimmer of the Championships for the second-straight season.

A 13-time Big Ten champion, Martin earned first-team All-Big Ten all four years at Wisconsin. This season, she reset both the Big Ten and Wisconsin records for the 50-yard freestyle, the 100 freestyle, the 100 butterfly, and the 200 freestyle relay and 400 freestyle relay.

Making her case as one of the fastest female swimmers in the nation, Martin won the 50 freestyle every time she swam in the event until finishing runner-up at the 2015 NCAA Championships.

A 16-time All-American over her career, Martin posted four top-six finishes at this season's NCAA championships. She was runner-up in the 50 free-style, placed fourth in both the 100 freestyle and 200 freestyle relay, and contributed to a sixth-place finish in the 400 freestyle relay.

Martin finished her illustrious career at Wiscon-sin with five school records (50 free, 100 free, 100 fly, 200 free relay, 400 free relay) and four Big Ten records (50 free, 100 free, 200 free relay and 400 free relay).

Academics

S tudent-athletes at the University of Wisconsin are students first and athletes second, and that

was reflected in the number of Badgers who received academic honors in 2014–15.

Big Ten Medal of Honor

The Big Ten Conference Medal of Honor is presented annually at each institution to a male and female

student-athlete in the graduating class for excellence in academics and athletics.

A two-time Academic All-Big Ten selec-tion, swimmer Drew teDuits won both an NCAA championship and Big Ten championship in the 200 backstroke as a sophomore in 2013. He won the 2015 Big Ten crown in the 200 back and earned All-American honors by placing sixth in the event at the 2015 NCAA Championships.

During his senior season, the kinesiol-ogy major claimed 24 first-place finishes, including 11 in the 200 backstroke alone. He owns school records in the 100 and 200 backstroke, and holds the second-fastest 200 IM time in program history.

A four-year starter for the women's golf team, Kimberly Dinh was a Capital One Academic All-America First Team At-Large winner in 2015 after being a second team Academic All-American last year. A three-time CoSIDA Capital One Academic All-District first team honoree, Dinh was a four-time Academic All-Big Ten honoree at Wisconsin and a four-time Big Ten Distin-guished Scholar.

Dinh received a Big Ten Postgraduate Scholarship after graduating in May with a 4.0 cumulative grade-point average in chemical engineering. She will pursue her graduate studies in chemical engineering at M.I.T.

Either the No. 1 or No. 2 golfer in seven of UW's 11 tournaments in 2014-15, Dinh finished her career ranked fourth all-time in scoring at Wisconsin with 76.62 strokes per round. Her final 2015 season scoring aver-age of 75.22 ranks seventh all-time.

Remington Scholars

The Remington Scholarships are presented to the male and female student-athletes who completed

their eligibility with the highest cumulative grade point averages and graduated this year. Named in honor of former UW pro-fessor Frank Remington, who was a faculty athletics representative to the NCAA, Big Ten and WCHA, recipients receive a $1,000 scholarship.

Andrew Brekke, who graduated from Wisconsin with a degree in biochemistry, competed in a variety of throwing events for Wisconsin. Last season, the La Crosse, Wisconsin, native earned a spot on the Capital One Academic All-District Men's Track and Cross Country Team.

A two-time Academic All-Big Ten selec-tion, Brekke won four titles this season, including a personal-best mark in the shot

put on Senior Day at the Wisconsin Twilight with a heave of 57 feet, 3/4 inches to finish fifth. Brekke qualified for the 2015 NCAA West Preliminary Round in the shot put and also threw the shot at the 2015 Big Ten Outdoor Championships, where he placed 20th.

Kimberly Dinh, the Big Ten Medal of Honor winner, is also a Remington Scholar for 2015.

Dinh was a member of UW's 2013, 2014 and 2015 NCAA regional qualifying teams. She also played in the 2013 NCAA Cham-pionship, where she was the recipient of the Elite 89 award given to the student-athlete with the highest cumulative GPA of all participants in the NCAA Division I Women's Golf Championship.

“Life success can be measured on multiple dimensions. Two that are

important to me, other than family and friends, are career and athletic success.

This investment will help future UW student-athletes be better prepared to achieve both academic and career success as they pursue excellence on the athletic front for both themselves

and our great university.”

SERF CompetitionPool Project AnnouncedIn 2014, Wisconsin Athletics announced a fundraising campaign for a new $26 mil-lion competition pool and separate diving well that will be included as part of the University of Wisconsin recreational sports renovations to the Southeast Recreational Facility (SERF) near the Kohl Center on the UW campus.

Construction is planned to begin in 2017, with the 50-meter pool ready to host swimming meets and recreational swim-mers in 2019. The pool will have seating for 1,500 spectators and will include a separate diving well. It will link to the exist-ing UW swimming and diving facilities at LaBahn Arena (completed in 2012), which include student-athlete locker rooms, lounge space and training areas.

"The swim and dive team is very grateful for the plan to

build a new facility! To have the opportunity to train in a high-quality aquatic center and be able to host bigger meets will be extremely beneficial for our

program. It will put us on par with other NCAA teams that have great facilities. We are all super excited for the future of this program."

In its third year, the “Badgers Give Back” program, a community relations platform

meant to increase publicity of student-athlete outreach efforts, streamline the request process for student-athlete appearances and ensure compliance with NCAA regulations, has become a staple of the student-athlete experience at UW. While volunteering has always been a staple for UW student-athletes, the centralized effort behind the program has allowed the Badgers to extend an even bigger reach into the community:

6,900 Hours volunteered by UW

student-athletes

130 Classrooms that participated in the Flat Bucky mentorship

program in its first year

96.5 Hours volunteered by

women’s hockey player Molly Doner, the most of any

Badgers Give Back

“Badgers Give Back is an outstanding program to be a part of. The athletic department does a tremendous job of allowing us to impact the lives of so many children and families throughout our Badger community. Being in the

position that I am and being able to put a smile on someone’s face is the greatest joy a person can experience.” — Nigel Hayes, Men's Basketball (54 hours volunteered in 2014-15)

The Bookin’ It With Bucky literacy effort was improved in 2014-15 thanks to a partnership with the UW School of Education. The program brought student-athletes to their partner classrooms four times during the year to read and lead students through literacy activities.

The new Flat Bucky mentorship program paired classrooms with Badgers who would

post photos of the students’ “Flat Bucky” to an Instagram account for the class to follow. Each classroom also met their student-athletes either

via Skype or during a tour of a UW facility.

Marketing

Major corporate sponsors of UW Athletics in 2014-15

In 2014-15, the University of Wisconsin contin-ued its athletic-multimedia rights partnership with Learfield Sports and its on-site opera-

tional team, Badger Sports Properties (BSP). BSP is a property of Learfield Sports and the

local multimedia rights holder for UW Athletics. BSP oversees the production and distribution of all Badger radio broadcasts, including live game action and coaches’ shows. In addition, the local entity solicits sponsorships and other support for UW Athletics. Its talented team of sales executives assists sponsors in finding the right marketing mix, whether it is advertising on the game broadcasts or a sign in Camp Randall Stadium or the Kohl Center.

Wisconsin Athletics enjoys great relationships with its corporate partners. These partners share not only the values of the Athletic Department, but those of the campus as well. These partnerships often expand to beyond athletics to positively impact students across campus. One such example is a new partnership with Delta Airlines. This multi-year agreement supports not only athletic initia-tives, but progams within the Wisconsin School

of Business, the Memorial Union and Union South and the Wisconsin Alumni Association.

Adidas and the UW Athletic Department con-tinue to partner on a comprehensive sponsorship agreement in which adidas serves as the depart-ment’s exclusive provider of athletic apparel for all 23 Badger teams.

Wisconsin Athletics is also pleased to continue to partner with Dr. Pepper Snapple group and Badger Max. These agreements bring smooth refreshing beverage options, including Dr. Pepper, A&W Root Beer, 7-UP and Snapple to our facilities. BadgerMax sports drink and water is also available, the official isotonic beverage and water of the Badgers.

The merchandising partner of UW Athletics is Gold Country, Inc., which continues to operate Bucky’s Locker Room retail stores at Camp Randall Stadium and the Kohl Center. In addition, Bucky’s handles all game-day merchandising at all UW Athletic facilities and is the department’s exclusive website merchandise sales partner.

Coaches Radio ShowsOne of the great ways to keep up with the Badger head coaches is to catch them at their weekly radio shows throughout the sports seasons.

These free events are held at local restaurants in the Madison area and give fans a chance to grab a bite to eat, hang out with friends and listen to (and watch) the UW coaches discuss a variety of topics relating to their teams or sports.

Hosted by Badger radio per-sonalities such as Matt Lepay and Mike Lucas, the weekly radio shows give UW fans a close-up look at their favorite sports.

Bucky’s Buddies Kids’ ClubMore than 12,000 kids, age 12 and under, are currently registered for the Bucky’s Buddies Kids Club.

Membership is free and kids are provided a seasonal newsletter, personal correspondence on their birthday, as well as first informa-tion on kids clinics hosted by UW Athletic teams.

Badger athletics has a large impact on the Madison area, not only in terms of athletic events, but also in the number of other events athletic facilities

host. In addition to the 145 athletic events, UW Athletics also hosted high school and other competitions, concerts and dinners, banquet and miscellaneous events. The UW has also continued to host facility tours of Camp Randall Sta-dium, the Kohl Center and LaBahn Arena.

Wisconsin Athletics was recognized nationally for its partnership efforts. Wisconsin earned a National Association of Collegiate Marketing Administrators (NACMA) gold award for sponsorship activation for its collaboration with the PGA of America. The promotion, designed to create awareness of August’s PGA Championship at Whistling Straits in Kohler, was highlighted by PGA TOUR professional Steve Stricker hitting a golf shot from the top of the Camp Randall Stadium to mid-field at halftime of a football game last October.

2014-15 Operating Expense Budget

The 2014-15 fiscal year continued

Wisconsin’s 14-year run of finish-

ing with a positive cash balance.

This consistency is representative of our

on-going commitment to carefully man-

age our resources. We continue to closely

monitor our expenses to assure that our

projected revenue streams are adequate

to cover our operational needs.

The success of Badger Athletics is

enjoyed not only in the Division of Athlet-

ics but also by students across the campus.

Licensing fees from the purchase of items

with UW logos are shared with the campus

and last year provided nearly $1.5 million

for Bucky Grants, financial aid for under-

graduates with demonstrated financial

need. UW Athletics contributed an addi-

tional $3 million dollars to campus from

revenues generated through the Big Ten

Network.

Continuing changes in the college

athletics landscape promise to make

2015-16 another challenging year for UW

Athletics’ budgets. The breakout of the

“Power Five” conferences from the rest of

the NCAA are bringing significant revisions

to the existing paradigm. Uncertainties

surrounding the recent litigation call for

further study and clarification before final

determination of economic impacts. Rule

changes regarding the cost of attendance,

student-athlete meals, and other factors

continue to bring significant cost factors to

the forefront.

COMPLIANCE ACTUAL INFRACTION REPORTED BY OTHER INSTITUTIONS...

Violation 1: A representative of the institution’s athletics interests (booster) provided an impermissible extra benefit to the parents of a student-athlete (SA). The booster recognized the SA’s parents during a home competition, and at the booster’s request, the SA’s parents sat in the booster’s premium seats valued at $50. The booster and the SA’s parents were from the same town, but a violation still occurred. The SA was immediately declared ineligible and prevented from competing until repaying the value of the benefit to a local charity of his choice. Education was provided to the coaching staff and SAs, and a letter was sent to all season ticket holders and parents of SAs.

Violation 2: A prospective student-athlete (PSA) had impermissible telephone contact with a representative of the institution’s athletics interests (booster). The PSA placed a call to the booster, and the booster discussed the institution’s athletics program with the PSA instead of referring the PSA to the athletics department. The PSA was immediately declared ineligible for future competition at the institution, pending rules education and a letter of admonishment to the involved.

NCAA to pay for family travel under pilot program Grants waiver to College Football Playoff for national championship The NCAA will help cover expenses for players’ families to travel to the Men’s and Women’s Final Fours this spring, under a new pilot program announced today. A waiver granted by the NCAA also allows=ed the College Football Playoff to assist with expenses for family travel to the national championship game in Arlington, Texas. The NCAA will pay up to $3,000 total in travel, hotel and meal expenses for family members of each student-athlete who competes in the Final Four semifinal games but don’t advance to the championships. The NCAA will pay up to $4,000 in expenses for each of the student-athletes who compete in the men’s and women’s basketball championship games. The College Football Playoff may provide up to $3,000 in travel expenses for families of each competing student-athlete. “Championship experiences like the Final Four create memories of a lifetime for student-athletes, and we want to make sure their families are there to support and celebrate with them,” said NCAA President Mark Emmert. “From multiyear scholarships to opportunities to return to school and complete their degree on scholarship, we have been dedicated to further improving the student-athlete experience since our presidential retreat in August 2011,” Emmert added. “Providing travel expenses for student-athletes’ families is another example of this progress.” Emmert said the pilot program begins with providing more support for the families of student-athletes competing in the Final Fours and College Football Playoff championship. NCAA member schools and conferences also can adopt new rules to provide these family travel expenses on a permanent basis or for other championships. Mark Lewis, NCAA executive vice president of championships and alliances, said the Division I men’s and women’s basketball committees are dedicated to including student-athlete families as a part of the overall championships experience. “Providing travel expenses has long been a part of this discussion, and I’m thrilled we were able to move forward with this support,” Lewis said. During the 2013 Men’s Final Four, the NCAA provided free tickets to student-athlete families and moved their seats behind the respective team benches. During the 2014 Men’s Final Four, the NCAA also hosted a special reception for student-athlete family members.

Above: This monthly educational newsletter was sent out to all UW athletic department staff members to provide an update on timely compliance topics.

Assistant Athletic Director for Compliance Katie Smith

Below: The compliance office also reaches out to individuals outside of the athletic department, inlcuding fans, boosters and alums. This page educating season tick-ets holders appeared in the Football Fan Information Guide.

The three main functions of the compliance office are to educate, monitor and self-report violations.

W ith respect to education,

the compliance staff

meets with and dissemi-

nates information to coaches, student-

athletes and other staff, providing

material on the sometimes complex

application of NCAA and Big Ten Con-

ference rules. The compliance office

continues its comprehensive educa-

tion program, utilizing various meth-

ods to increase awareness of NCAA,

Big Ten, WCHA and institutional

rules and to foster a “compliance

conscience.”

890 Total number of rules

interpretations issued by the compliance staff during the

2014-15 academic year.

Education Initiative to Select Compliance Customers Coaches and Athletic Department StaffMembers of the compliance staff attend bi-monthly coaches’ meetings and present pertinent educational information. In addition, coaches and staff receive regular emails from the compliance office, including a question of the week, reminders on timely compliance topics, and updates on rules changes. New coaches and staff receive an orientation with a compliance staff member, and all coaches and staff are encouraged to consult the compliance office throughout the year for interpretations of NCAA rules. For more informa-tion on the compliance office, see: http://www.uwbadgers.com/compliance/about-us.html

Enrolled Student-AthletesCompliance office staff members meet with all student-athletes at least twice a year to review pertinent rules. In addition, the compliance office sends educational emails to all student-athletes on a monthly basis. Efforts are also made to educate the parents of student-athletes during special events such as post-season competition. For more information on enrolled student-athletes, see: http://www.uwbadgers.com/compliance/current-badgers.html

Prospective Student-AthletesThe compliance office staff works with coaches to answer questions from prospects and their parents regarding the recruiting process and academic eligibility. Prospects are also sent educational mailings in conjunction with a National Letter of Intent and before their arrival in Madison during the summer. Addi-tionally, all prospects enrolling in summer school are provided a compliance orientation with a compliance office staff member. For more information on prospects, see: http://www.uwbadgers.com/compliance/future-badgers.html

Representatives of Athletics InterestsThis group, which includes UW alumni, donors, employers of student-athletes, and other boosters, receives most of its information from the compliance office via educational mailings. Educational materials are packaged with larger mailings from other departments, such as the Athletic Ticket Office or the Devel-opment Office, so that the compliance education information has a broader impact. NCAA rules remind-ers are also placed in the suites and clubs at Camp Randall and the Kohl Center. For more information on fans, boosters, and alums, see: http://www.uwbadgers.com/compliance/fans-boosters.html

Monitoring InitiativesThe compliance office monitors athletic department activities by reviewing documentation submitted by coaches and staff on a variety of activities including practice times, travel itineraries, communication with prospective student-athletes, donation requests and occasional meals. Monitoring helps the compliance office identify and reduce areas where the institution and athletic program are most at risk for violating NCAA, Big Ten Conference, WCHA, and institutional rules.

If a violation occurs, the compliance office self-reports the violation. The self-reporting process requires the compliance office to determine how the violation occurred, how the violation could have been pre-vented and how to prevent the violation from recurring. Among other actions resulting from a violation, the compliance office may modify or develop a form that will promote future compliance.

Throughout the year, the compliance office reviews autographed memorabilia requests to ensure all donations are in accordance with NCAA rules. Furthermore, the compliance office also authorizes all requests for student-athlete appearances.

GOAL: COMMITMENT TO COMPLIANCESpread awareness of NCAA rules and regulations that govern athletics and ensure strict adherence to those rules and regulations.

Badgers win the West as Heisman finalist Gordon runs to records

RB Melvin Gordon rushed for a Big Ten-record 2,587 yards, the second-highest total in FBS his-tory, en route to winning the Doak Walker Award and finishing runner-up for the Heisman Trophy.

With their 34-31 overtime win over Auburn in the Outback Bowl, the Badgers secured their 50th win since the start of the 2010 season. UW is one of just 11 FBS teams to average 10 wins over the past five seasons.

Big Ten Outstanding Sportsmanship Award

One member of each varsity sports team on every campus is chosen by his or her institution as a Sports-manship Award honoree, and two Outstanding Sports-manship Award winners are then selected from each institution. Sportsmanship Award winners distinguish themselves through sportsmanship and ethical behav-ior. In addition, these honorees must be in good aca-demic standing and must have demonstrated good citizenship outside of the sports-competition setting.
