Cal Golf

The California Women’s Golf team brings a streak of ten-straight trips to the NCAA Regionals into the season. The goal for

the 2009-10 team, however, goes one step beyond bid number 11.

“This team believes we can contend for a Pac-10 and a National Championship, and we intend to do it,” head coach Nancy McDaniel emphatically states.

The 2009-10 team is rebounding from the loss of a pair of seniors, Allison Goodman and Shannon Yocum, but the Bears return three members of their usual five-person lineup from last season. Anchored by All-American Pia Halbig, Cal also has Diane Kwon and Roseanne Niven back on the course this season. The threesome will be joined by two new names on the lineup card in the fall, a pair of transfer students in Joanne Lee and Emily Childs. In the spring, Cal adds another transfer student, sophomore Daniela Holmqvist. The rest of the Bears team includes talented freshmen Joi Pentin and Jacqueline Williams, adding depth and energy to the team.

“The main difference between this year’s team and last year’s team is that we are pretty young,” explains McDaniel. “The team also has a newness about it, a freshness of attitude. It’s a real learning attitude. ‘Hey, we want to get better and how do we do it’ sort of attitude. Everybody’s in on that, the coaches included. We want to get better every day and we keeping determining how to help each other do it.”

This team effort and accountability has everyone buying in on the goal to make it to Cal’s seventh appearance at an NCAA Championship. The players and coaches are very clear on what it is going to take to get them there.

“We need to be in the last two pairings of each tournament,” says McDaniel. “As we go forward, we need to learn how to win. Win-ning before we get to Nationals is a big one.”

The Bears have a challenging schedule to prepare them for these lofty goals. They open the season at the Golfweek Conference Chal-lenge outside of Las Vegas. The tournament features a field of 18 teams from 18 different conferences around the country. Cal was selected to represent the Pac-10 in the field.

“Golfweek is a tournament that allows you to compare yourself to other teams nationally and puts us in some good head-to-heads against teams we don’t see all the time,” said McDaniel. “Now when you get to a regional and you see a team like Chattanooga, you know they are good and you don’t just wipe them off the board. I think that’s part of be-ing in the Pac-10 Conference, is having that ability to get invited to high-level tournaments like that.”

The fall portion of the schedule also includes a trip to the Hawaiian Islands to compete at the Turtle Bay Invitational, a very select tournament played against top competition on stunning golf courses.

“Hawaii is an amazing trip that we take every two years,” McDaniel explained. “We hit the beach. We hit the course. We’re staying at Turtle Bay this year which is a phenomenal resort area. We get to play two of their courses. We have a good time when we go, but this team doesn’t forget that we compete hard. But we also play hard on the beach and do some fun things to get some balance in their lives.”

This season, Cal will play at least three tour-

naments in the Bay Area, including two trips to the Stanford Course, which will also host the West Regional in the 2010 post season.

“Playing in the Bay Area is really important as we don’t presently host our own tourna-ment,” said McDaniel. “This is an opportunity to get some Cal fans and supporters out there. The Bay Area is rich in quality golf courses and competition. We like to take the opportunity to play here before we go traveling too far.”

Fans and opponents will be watching junior Pia Halbig. Halbig set the Cal record for stroke average last season with a stellar 73.0. Halbig was a third-team Golfweek All-American, an honorable mention NGCA All-American, NGCA Schoilar-Athlete, and was first team All-Pac-10. She was tabbed as a preseason third-team All-American by Golfweek and is a player who can contend and challenge as a medalist in any tournament.

“Her target focus is like no one I’ve seen,” McDaniel said, explaining what makes Pia such a threat on the course. “Pia is someone who really plays the game of target golf. She plays like an athlete. She spends a lot of time looking at the target and firing it so well. Her willingness to expand her shots around the green will prove fierce this year.”

Halbig, who spent her summer playing in Europe, winning the Slovenian International as an individual and a pair of tournaments as a member of the German team, has another major weapon on her side: pride.

“She has huge pride in Cal, in her game, and in doing everything she does at a very

high level.” Serving as a co-leader on this year’s squad is Cal’s lone senior, Roseanne Niven. Niven comes back to campus fresh off the course at Royal Lytham & St. Annes Golf Club where she competed against the top talent in women’s golf at the 2009 Ricoh British Women’s Open. Niven earned a slot in the women’s golf major by win-ning the 2008 British Amateur.

“Roseanne’s become more vocal as a leader on our team.

She brings a real lightness to things, but she also turns around and focuses really well. She always brings this to practice.”

The third returner from last year’s lineup is sophomore Diane Kwon. Kwon was a stalwart of the lineup late in the season. Having to fill a void left by the injury to Shannon Yocum, Kwon earned great experience and really found the consistency in her game during the Bears

Sophomore Joanne Lee


final tournaments. Kwon’s even-par 72 in the final round of the NCAA Regional was a big part of the Bears’ late charge and rally to try to qualify for Nationals.

“Diane has already proven that she is ready to play this year. Last year, she was busy sorting everything out, the normal freshman adjustments. She has gained a lot of maturity over the summer. She has a great balance in her life and a new outlook on golf. She is going to be a force. She’s only a sophomore, so we are really excited about her.”

Andrea Waters is the final of Cal’s returners from last year’s squad. The junior saw action in four tournaments last season for the Bears. President of the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee, she is one of the inspirational and motivating forces on the squad.

“Andrea has been constantly improving, waiting patiently for a breakthrough. She is really starting to come into her own, and has become more vocal. She never lets us down with her attitude. The way she appears at practice is always professional.”

Joanne Lee, one of the Bears two transfer students, is very familiar with the program. Lee, who was an honorable mention All-Pac-10 honoree her freshman season while playing at USC. Lee transferred to Cal in the fall of 2008. Lee has a year of experience practicing with the Bears, but could not com-pete last year as she redshirted. Now free to compete for Cal, Lee brings experience to the tee box.

“Joanne is a consistent player. You are never going to see very high scores out of her. Her strength is her short game. She has a phenomenal feel around the greens and her flop shot is like nobody elses.”

Emily Childs played last season at Colo-rado before choosing to return to play closer to home. The sophomore from Alameda, Calif. was a two-time Big 12 Golfer of the Month and went on to earn first team All-Big 12 postseason honors with a 73.38 scoring average last season for the Buffaloes.

and Louisiana Freshman of the Year and a member of the C-USA first team. The Green Wave finished fifth at the NCAA East Re-gional last season, advancing to the NCAA National Championships. Over the summer, Holmvquist posted a victory at the Swedish Mini Tour professional event in Valkommen till Stockholm, Sweden and was the top amateur at the SAS Mater’s tour stop in Sweden.

“I think that Daniela is a great fit for Cal. She has really proven herself at Tulane, that she can perform at a very high level both academically and on the golf course. What really impressed me about Daniela, however, was what she was able to accomplish this summer, the success she had winning top-level tournaments in Sweden. She will really bring an incredible work ethic and new ideas from the Swedish National Team to our team this spring.”

Rounding out the squad are two talented freshmen, Joi Pentin and Jacqueline Williams. Pentin, from Pleasanton, had great success golfing with the East Bay Athletic League, with her four-year scoring average in high school 0.7 over par as the East Bay MVP from 2005-08. She played in the 2008 Junior Girls America’s Cup in Calgary, Alberta, Canada on the Northern California team and played in the Walmart First Tee Open at Pebble Beach.

Head Coach Nancy McDaniel talks course strategy with this season’s lone senior, Roseanne Niven.

“This team believes we can contend for a Pac-10 and

a National Championship, and we intend to do it.”

– Head Coach Nancy McDaniel

“As a transfer, Emily has jumped right in. The team is really pleased with the way that she has fit right in to our standard. In tourna-ments, Emily brings great length and hits a ton of greens. We undoubtedly will see some low rounds from her.”

Coming in the spring will be a third transfer, sophomore Daniela Holmqvist. Holmqvist, from Lindingo, Sweden, will be transferring to Cal from Tulane University in New Orleans. As a freshman at Tulane, Holmqvist was the individual medalist at the Conference USA Championships, also helping to lead her Green Wave team to the team champion-ship. Holmqvist was also named the C-USA

Sacramento’s Jacqueline Williams was an All-Metro League honoree. She played in two Walmart First Tee Opens at Pebble Beach (2007, 2008).

“These two bring an amazing enthusiasm for Cal and for competing at the collegiate level. I know they will give everything to represent Cal in tournaments this season. That push is just what we will need.”

The Bears fall schedule runs from Septem-ber through the first week of November. The traditional spring season begins February 8 at the Rancho Palos Verdes tournament and hopefully goes through May 20 at the NCAA National Championships.


nanCy mcdanielHead Coach • 15th Season

Nancy McDaniel, the founding coach of the California women’s golf team, enters her 15th season directing one of the most nationally regarded golf programs in the country.

During Cal’s rise to the upper echelon of the collegiate women’s golf landscape, McDaniel has led the Golden Bears to compete at six NCAA Championships, highlighted by three top five showings from 2004-06. Duke was the only other school during that span to register three straight top five national finishes. After the 2005-06 season, McDaniel was selected the LPGA Teaching Division Western Section Coach of the Year. Following four top five 2007 fall finishes, McDaniel was recognized as Golf World’s Midseason Coach of the Year.

The Bears have ten NCAA regional berths to their credit under McDaniel, capped by 2004’s program-best finish of fourth at the NCAA Championships. That year, Sarah Huarte won Cal’s first NCAA individual title.

Cal finished 19th at NCAAs in 2001 in its first appearance, 15th in 2002 and tied for 14th in 2003 prior to its best-ever performance in 2004. In 2003-04, the Bears established a school record for season stroke average at 298.1 and finished the year ranked No. 3 by Golfweek (best ever by the publication.)

During the 2002-03 season, McDaniel directed Cal to a nation’s-best seven tournament titles, including the Bears’ first Pac-10 and NCAA regional (Cen-tral) crowns, propelling them to an all-time best national ranking of No. 2 by Golfstat heading into the NCAA Championships.

The program’s 2002-03 ac-complishments earned McDaniel a collection of prestigious awards - National Golf Coaches Associa-tion (NGCA) Coach of the Year, the Ladies Professional Golf As-sociation (LPGA) Teaching and

Comments from the CoaChesnanCy mcdaniel – head CoaCh

What do i hope that eaCh Cal Golfer Gets out of her experienCe at Cal?

A ton of real life experiences! I want each student-athlete to leave our program excited and ready to take on “life” whether it means playing professionally, interviewing for their first job, getting married, going to grad school. I want them to say that Cal golf gave them a deep sense of working as a team for the greater good and doing something together that you cannot do alone and to do this armed with confidence, able to speak to anyone, carrying with them a grace, respect and passion for the game and for everything they do. I want them to have a connection to Cal Golf always, for the people (team-mates and alumnae) to be a part of their life forever. When you come to Cal you leave with an additional family.

What is your most memoraBle moment at Cal?

Every team has left me with unbelievable moments, from the first Pac-10 Championship to the “rebound round of the decade” at the 2004 NCAA’s, to watching Sarah Huarte get doused with a bucket of ice after winning the NCAA individual title or Sofia Janer’s last round of 69 through excruciating pain in Hawaii last year. This team will always remember the -15 round we had at Colorado State in the fall. It was the afternoon of a 36 hole day and we got it going like I have never seen before, firing at pins and marching the course with a confidence you just can’t touch. With this 08-09 team, the best is yet to come!

What is this teams’ motto?“Hungry--- Why wait? All it takes is all you got”. This team is poised

and ready to take it on. They have their eye on the prize and all systems are go. There really is no holding them back. You can really feel it from our seniors. There is a real positive vibe in the air, they know what they want and they are going to lead their team right to it.

What is a perfeCt day for you?A perfect day is most Sundays that I am home. We wake up and

read the paper, go to church, come home and have a big breakfast with family and friends and then do something fun and casual like play golf with Jay and the kids, play kickball, football, bike ride or watch one of the kids’ games before a home-cooked (by my husband) Sunday dinner. Then we are all ready for the week to begin!

What is the hidden inGredient in this team?

Team energy and pride are huge. With this team both are inspired naturally. You can recruit the top players in the world but they are only individuals until they all come together and give it up for the team. This team loves what they are doing every day, they always look out for each other, push and hold each other accountable to their dreams, always supporting and having a lot of fun with it.

What danGerous thinG Would you like to do if the risk of injury Weren’t there?

Definitely hang gliding. Take off from a cliff in Hawaii, where I know the water is warm and glide effortlessly,( yeah right, I’d be holding on for dear life) until I hit the water and swim back to shore and do it again! Cliff dive, surf and water ski jump. Pretty much anything that involves water.

interestinG faCt that people don’t knoW aBout me

I am a good baker (cookies, breads, desserts) but I pretty much burn everything else. If it doesn’t have a timer I am doomed….my husband won’t let me use the stove anymore (oh well).

anna temple – assistant CoaCh

What makes this year’s Cal team speCial?This year’s Cal team is special because of their talent. They are

extremely talented student athletes both on the course and in their studies. They compete on the course for themselves, for the University, and for their countries. They do so with a certainty that I have never experienced. They give all they have on the course and are able to do the same in the classroom. It is quite remarkable what they are able to accomplish.

What exCites you aBout CoaChinG at Cal?Everything excites me about coaching at Cal. It is truly an honor

to be coaching at my alma mater and under the tutelage of Coach McDaniel. I learned so much from her as a player, and I’m learning even more from her as her assistant. It is amazing to be a part of this University and the athletic department. Growing up in Berkeley, I have always loved and looked up to the University and all it has to offer and it is a fantastic experience to be involved in this way. I am also incredibly excited to be working with the amazing people on this team. I love having the opportunity to see them everyday and watch them grow into their own.

What hoBBy Would you like to master?I would really like to accomplish the things on my personal growth to

do list. Every year I make a list of the things I’d like to do or see that year, but I haven’t yet been successful at doing many of them. My list usually includes going to the opera, the symphony, a San Jose Sharks game, and many other things that I have never done but have wanted to do. It would be awesome if I took the time to do those things just so that I know that I have actually done them.

if you Could hop on a plane tomorroW, Where Would you Go?

Luckily for me, I have been extremely fortunate to see most of the globe through my golf career. Pretty much you can name it and I’ve been there. The one place that is high on my list of never been to’s is Chile. Brazil and Argentina would be fun too. And while I’m in the southern hemisphere, New Zealand would be great! If I could go back to places I’ve been, I would love to go back to South Africa, to India, and to Thailand. But like I’ve said, I’ve been blessed to travel all over the world so I wouldn’t be too picky.

What is interestinG aBout you that most people don’t knoW?

Most people don’t know that I share my birthday with my younger brother. We born on the 4th of July, 3 years a part.

What do you enjoy doinG in your free time?I love watching competitive sports. I love going to events here at

the University, I love watching different sporting events on t.v., and I love watching my friends compete in their respective sports. I really

enjoy watching people do what they love to do and learn about their experiences and how they were able to

become successful.

Cal Golf opens state-of-the-art short-Game faCilityIn a huge boost for California’s men’s and women’s golf pro-

grams, the Golden Bears opened their new scoring zone – the distance from 120 yards and in – at the Metropolitan Golf Links in Oakland last fall. The Cal athletic department would like to thank everyone who combined to contribute approximately $500,000

to bring the project to fruition. The lead donors were Judy Isaac, Pat and Kent Newmark, Ellen and Joffa Dale, Lon and Becci Haskew and Jay deBenedetti.

The programs broke ground on the privately-funded project in 2006 after a long planning process. The two-and-a-half acre state-of-the-art short-game facility is conveniently located on the southwest corner of the Metropolitan Golf Links near the Oakland Airport. Built to United States Golf Association specifications, the facility features two extremely large greens - one for putting and chipping, and the other for the wedge game, including bunker play.

Metropolitan Golf Links (background, top inset) is the primary practice facility for Cal Men’s and Women’s Golf. The practice facilities and course are located in Oakland next to the International Airport approximately 15 minutes from campus.

The 2004 NCAA Division I Champion-ship medalist, Sarah Huarte was a two-time All-American at Cal, winning the 2004 Honda Award as the nation’s top fe-male collegiate golfer after leading Cal to a fourth place finish at Nationals. After departing Cal, Huarte qualified for the LPGA Tour in 2007, play-ing in eight tournaments after spending two years on the Futures Tour (2005-06).

An NGCA West All-Region and Pac-10 Second Team honor-ee, Ria Quiazon also won the prestigious Anna Espenschade Award presented to the top graduating fe-male student-athlete at Cal. Quiazon competed on the Duramed Futures, Canadian Women’s, West Coast Ladies Golf, Orient Masters China Golf and Ladies Asian Golf tours.

anne WalkerU.C. Davis Head Coach

Anne Walker was a member of the Cal golf family for over ten years as a player and an assistant coach. As a player, she was Cal’s first All-Pac-10 honoree. Her career culminated by being awarded the Pac-10 Medal of Honor as the Bears’ top graduating female student-athlete.

“My years at Berkeley were by far the most challenging yet most rewarding of my life. The resilience and personal strength that I developed at Cal has helped me be a better coach and has given me the tools necessary to help the players in my program reach their own dream goals.”

Head Coach Nancy McDaniel caddied for Sophia Sheridan in the 2009 U.S. Women's Open Championship.


the Golden Bear Golf experienCe“My favorite spot on campus is Sproul Plaza. I love to sit on the steps and watch the different people walk by as the sun goes down.”

– Emily Childs

“Each Cal golfer brings different diversities and our unique individualisms into this team. That is what makes it so special.”

– Diane Kwon

“This year’s team is special because everyone works so hard and is so passionate about the things they do that it is the perfect atmosphere for upcoming success. Overall, my experience at Cal has been amazing. I found a second family in my team and my coaches and I am sure that these people will be in my life forever.”

– Pia Halbig


“Coach McDaniel is more than a coach. She is a role model in several ways. Being around Coach inspires me to be a better golfer, student and person. I think Coach and Anna do not see any limitations in terms of dreams. When I say I want to accomplish something, they will take as much time as it takes to help me devise a plan to reach my goal. No one has ever or will ever love learning as much as Anna, except for those she has inspired. Not only does she share knowledge on every part of the game with us, but she teaches us how to discover things about golf and our games.”

– Jackie Williams

“My experience here at Cal has been one I will never take for granted. The ability for me to play golf at such a great institution surrounded by such a great athletic community has been amazing. I have met so many amazing people and accomplished so much.

– Andrea Waters

“I have made best friends, and memories I will have forever here at Cal. I have been able to travel around the US and beyond, playing great golf courses and received top quality coaching. I have been met with challenges and opportunities alike and have enjoyed the learning process throughout.”

– Roseanne Niven

“Every time I need guidance, I know that at Cal there is someone I can turn to. Whether it be the coaches, my teammates, Ahmad (our academic advisor), or our trainer, I know that they are here to support me and push me to grow as a person.”

– Joanne Lee


Cal captured the 2008 Badger Invitational by 13 strokes and was led by three top-10 individual finishes, including a team-high fourth place finish by Pia Halbig.

2008-09 season in revieW

Senior Roseanne Niven

The Bears had a solid spring season, being ranked in the Golfweek top-25 for the entire spring, but they definitely

had to work through some adversities. Rain cancelled the Juli Ingster Spartan Invitational, leaving the Bears middle portion of their schedule wide open. They picked up a dual meet against San Jose State and added the La Quinta Tournament to the schedule, an 18-hole on-day event featuring players from Stanford, Harvard, UC Davis, and UCLA all competing as individuals. Cal’s Pia Halbig finished in a tie for first, shooting a one-over at the challenging dessert course. Allison Goodman (75, 6th place) and Diane Kwon (78, 10th place) gave the Bears three players in the top-10 in the tournament.

The Bears competed at the PING/ASU tournament without Shanon Yocum, who missed six weeks mid season with an injury. Halbig finished in the top-ten, posting a six-over for a ninth-place finish. Kwon got off to a hot-start, shooting a first-round one-over to finish 36th. Yocum rejoined the team for the Pac-10 Championship where her final round 69 helped the team wrap up a fifth place Confer-ence finish. Halbig had her three-consecutive top-10 finish in a major tournament, finishing at +2, ranking her eighth among the Conference elite. Halbig was named to the All-Pac-10 first team with Yocum and Goodman each earning honorable mentions.

The Bears’ solid spring season earned them an at-large bid to the NCAA Regional, Cal’s tenth consecutive trip to the Regionals. The team came within three strokes of qualifying for a trip to the National Championships, but the team’s back nine struggles on the final day caused the Bears to come up just short. They finished in a tie for ninth place with the top eight teams advancing to the National Championships. Goodman was one stroke shy of making it as an individual. Goodman

has her score since the season-opener in Colorado, posting an even-par 216.

She ended the Regional tied for 13th place.

Pia Halbig, in addition to her All-Conference honors, was named a

third team Golfweek All-American and an NGCA

All-American honorable mention. Her 73.0 season stroke average set the

Cal sophomore class record and the single-

season record, best-ing Sarah Huarte’s

73.82 in 2003-04.

One of the real success stories for the University of California is the development and growth of a comprehensive aca-demic support program for its student-athletes: the Athletic

Study Center.In 1984, campus officials and athletic department administrators

decided that a greater emphasis needed to be placed on helping Cal student-athletes with their academic pursuits. The Athletic Study Center was thus born and charged with developing an academic support program tailored to the needs of NCAA Division I student-athletes. It was a significant development for an academically oriented institution such as Cal to recognize the special needs required for a modern student-athlete’s success both as an athletic competitor on the field of play and as a student in the classroom.

student-athlete proGramThe Athletic Study Cen-

ter, which is housed within the Division of Under-graduate Education, is the tutorial and academic sup-port program for the nearly 1,000 student-athletes at Cal. Centrally located in the Cesar Chavez Stu-dent Center, the program provides a spacious and comfortable arboretum for quiet study, separate classrooms for individual and group tutorials, and a computer lab for word processing and required course work.

Geared around the understanding of the amount of time student-athletes must devote to practice, training, physical therapy and team travel, the program creates an environment where students can cultivate strong study habits, receive individual or group tutoring and obtain counseling from academic advisors.

tutorial proGramThe tutorial program promotes and enhances student academic

skills and progress by providing individual tutoring, group workshops, study groups, credit courses and intensive special programs. The Athletic Study Center has between 50-60 tutors on staff per semester to guarantee that students receive the best possible support. Tutorial sessions are also offered at night, enabling student-athletes to receive help after practices when are able to devote more time to studying.

advisinG proGramThe advising program offers a broad range of

services to meet the unique needs of student-athletes, including assistance in understanding and complying with university, college and NCAA requirements, developing time manage-ment skills and resolving personal academic issues unique to student-athletes.

During a student-athlete’s freshman year, ad-visors provide assistance to ensure a successful academic transition from high school. In the sophomore year, they assist student-athletes in making decisions on appropriate majors and fields of study. Over the course of the final two years, advisors take more of an exiting approach, ensuring that proper academic progress is being made towards graduation while referring juniors and seniors to areas on or near campus that can help with career planning and development.

speCial proGramsThe Athletic Study Center offers a special service called Summer

Bridge; an adjunct program designed to help ease the transition from high school to college. The primary components of the program include writing and math workshops, an advising workshop, study skills seminars and an evening tutorial program.

Another special program offered is peer advising. Peer advisors provide academic and campus guidance for new intercollegiate student-athletes. They are selected from junior and senior student-athletes who assist in the development of programs to further address the needs of student-athletes.

Strength & conditioning

An integral part of California women’s golf program and its success is the strength and conditioning program, led by Zach Conner and assistants, who supervise the com-prehensive operation for the Golden Bear team. The program’s philosophy is geared

towards helping each student-athlete achieve the highest level of athletic development.

By teaching how all the components of strength and conditioning fit together, student-athletes understand how to maximize force produc-tion. This includes enhancement of speed, strength and flexibility, which results in improved power. Motivating, educating and helping to reach maximum athletic development is the primary focus of the Cal program.

The Cal weight room includes eight Olympic platforms and an array of aerobic and anaerobic equipment. The picturesque facility offers panoramic views of the entire region, including San Francisco and the Bay. The training regimen at Cal is a year-round process that emphasizes the speed, strength and flexibility. With closely monitored workouts that involve a great deal of individual instruction and atten-tion, student-athletes are taught the correct techniques to increase their ability to perform at their peak during competition.

Cal’s program stresses comprehensive training in order to improve both strength and speed. Flexibility is a key component because it is essential for proper lifting.

Athlete workouts are closely monitored by the conditioning staff who work in collabora-tion with the entire sports medicine team (doctors, athletic trainers, physical therapists, nutritionists, etc.) to ensure the health and safety of all of student-athletes.

In this way, Cal’s strength and conditioning program is a vital component linking the “full circle” of a student-athlete’s physical development from conditioning through rehabilitation and reconditioning.

pilates Golf dynamiC

The California women’s golf team uses innovative approaches in its pursuit of an NCAA team title. The Golden Bears have embraced the Pilates Method of Exercise, integrat-ing their Pilates workouts with their strength training. With their improved posture and increased body control and awareness, the Bears are car-rying themselves taller on and off the course.

Pilates and golf have a symbiotic relationship. One of the predominant theories of Pilates is strength and awareness within the core muscles. With this newfound mind-body re-lationship, the golfers are not only relieved from back pain, but they are able to rotate their center with greater control and fluidity, which yields a more powerful and precise swing.

Joseph Quinn graduated from Cal in 2001 with a degree in mu-sic and a sore back from being hunched over his guitar. With the help of Pi-lates, his aches and pains dissi-pated quickly. So impressed with the power of the work, he got certified and opened a studio on Telegraph Avenue in Berkeley.

A dedicated Golden Bear, Joseph enthusiastically aided the Cal football team when he heard of their wide-spread back problems in 2004. With back issues looming for the golf team, Cal women’s golf head coach Nancy McDaniel enlisted the help of Pilates and Quinn in 2007.

The Pilates Method of Exercise explores the art and science of hu-man movement. The system was created by boxer and World War I hospital orderly, Joseph Pilates. He developed his concepts of precise and fluid movement with Martha Graham’s modern dancers of New York in the 1920’s. Since then, it has long been the conditioning and rehabilitation secret of the modern dance world. In the last 10 years, Pilates has been recognized by the medical community for its sound properties, and now the athletic world is taking note.

B erkeley is a part of the San Francisco Bay Area major metropoli-

tan area of approximately 7.2 million people. The region is one of the most beautiful in the world and includes the major cities of San Fran-cisco and Oakland, as well as Berkeley, home of the world-renowned University of California. Just south are San Jose and the Silicon Valley, home to many of the world’s high-tech companies. The Bay Area also lies within easy driving distance of the high Sierra resorts of Lake Tahoe and Yosemite, the Monterey/Carmel peninsula, the world famous Napa wine country and the spectacular Mendocino Coast.

Everyone knows San Fran-cisco, a.k.a. “The City,” from the numerous photographs, movies and television shows that capture its magic and beauty. It is a city built on a series of more than 40 hills, offering panoramic views of every kind. The hub of a nine-county complex and the fi-nancial and insurance capital of the world, San Francisco has a resident population of just over 800,000 and is situated on a 46.7 square mile peninsula bounded on

Located across the Bay Bridge from San Francisco, Oakland is a city of over 400,000, jam-packed with exciting attractions, stimulating arts and an ideal climate. Oakland’s charm exceeds its man-made wonders, as its tumbling hills, vast forests, hiking and riding trails, beautiful lakes and numerous parks provide a natural escape for those who prefer nature over an urban environment.

Berkeley, just a 12-mile drive from San Francisco, is situated on 17.7 square miles with a population of just under 103,000 people. A study in contrasts, Berkeley is a small town with a big city character. With its world-renowned university, global population and rich diversity of cultural arts, Berkeley reflects and affects the rest of the country.

Sports fans can see it all in the Bay Area - professional football (San Francisco 49ers, Oakland Raiders), professional basketball (Golden State Warriors), professional baseball (San Francisco Giants, Oakland Athletics), professional hockey (San Jose Sharks) and outstanding collegiate com-petition (six Division I schools).

student-athlete hiGh performanCe Center

The Student-Athlete High Performance Center, now un-der construction, is expected to be completed prior to the 2011 season. The 142,000 square foot facility will house locker rooms, offices and meeting rooms, as well as areas for strength and conditioning, sports medicine, nutrition and academics for football and 12 other intercollegiate sports.

The building is the physical manifestation of Cal’s High Performance Initiative, a unique program that challenges student-athletes to reach their level of optimal performance through strategic and efficient application of resources. Using cutting-edge technology and a multidisciplinary ap-proach, the cornerstone principles of the HPI are communi-cation, integration and information.

memorial stadium renovation

Memorial Stadium, considered by many to be one of the most beautiful settings for collegiate football, was originally constructed with funds donated by alumni, faculty, students and fans. At the time, Robert Gordon Sproul, who became UC president in 1930, said that the stadium “stands in sim-ple dignity, beauty and strength.”

Now, plans are being finalized to renovate the 86-year-old structure, starting with the west side, to create programmat-ic, game day and fan amenity improvements while respect-ing the architecture and character of the historic structure.

Donors have demonstrated their backing of the privately-funded project through their commitment to the Endowment Seat Program (ESP), a first-of-its-kind effort in major college athletics to secure the financial future for the Athletic Depart-ment. ESP will provide a long-term, sustaining endowment that could grow to $1 billion over the next 30 years and will be used to fund annual operating needs for Cal’s student-athletes.
