Jeff “CJ” Werneke is set to begin his fifth season at the helm of the Rutgers women’s vol-leyball program in 2012. After an extremely successful stint at Fairfield, Werneke arrived “On the Banks” in 2008 with hopes of building a strong volleyball foundation at Rutgers. Through his first four seasons, Werneke is well on his way as his teams have seen more consistency in the win column.

Last season, Werneke led the Scarlet Knights to their third-straight season with double-digit wins, compiling 10 on the season. The Scarlet Knights put together a 7-6 record at home. The 11 victories in the 2010 season were the most for RU since the 2005 season.

In 2009, Rutgers finished with a 10-19 record. RU’s 10 wins equaled the total amount of victories the squad had in the three previous seasons combined. RU also won its first tournament title since the 2004 Patriot Invitational when it won the Bucknell Invitational Title.

In his first season at RU, Werneke led an extremely young Scarlet Knights squad through a demanding schedule that included 17 road games and 14 BIG EAST contests. Although the Scarlet Knights garnered only two wins on the year, the experience that the youthful squad gained could prove to be vastly important in the future.

The Scarlet Knights have also excelled in the classroom un-der Werneke’s tutelage. In two of Werneke’s seasons, the Rutgers University volleyball team was recognized for its outstanding academic achievement as the American Volley-ball Coaches Association (AVCA) awarded RU with an AVCA Team Academic Award for posting a combined team grade point average of above a 3.30.

Prior to his first season as head coach at Rutgers, Werneke had an extremely successful tenure at Fairfield where he left as the school’s all-time winningest coach.

In 2007, Werneke broke the 100-win plateau for his career and currently has a 134-144 overall record. He was named the 2006 and 2007 MAAC Coach of the Year, and led the Stags to four consecutive MAAC regular season titles. In 2007, Fairfield finished with a 21-13 overall record and a 17-1 mark in conference play.

Werneke also coached 11 All-MAAC honorees, two MAAC Rookies of the Year, a MAAC Offensive Player of the Year and back-to back Setters of the Year while with the Stags.

Before heading to Fairfield, Werneke served as an assistant coach at Rutgers from 1999-2001 under Anne Leonard-House. While an assistant at Rutgers, Werneke served as the recruiting coordinator, handled all scouting, game day operations and travel operations.

Werneke graduated from Samford University in 1996 and has also coached at East Tennessee State, Samford and the Uni-versity of Montevallo.

Werneke married the former Jennifer Smith on January 20, 2007. The Wernekes are the proud parents of three children – daughters Rylie and Parker, and son Noah.

Lindsey Lee enters her fifth season on the Scarlet Knights coaching staff. Prior to taking the job as an assistant coach at Rutgers, Lee had a decorated career playing under CJ Werneke at Fairfield.

“I have known Lindsey since she was a junior in high school and after coaching her for four years at Fairfield, she has been great to work with as a colleague,” said head coach CJ Wer-neke. “Not only does she bring her knowledge and passion for the game to our staff, but her

competiveness has been a major asset to our program.”

Lee was a four-year standout at the outside hitter position for Fairfield. The Hilo, Hawaii native was the MAAC Rookie of the Year and named First Team All-Conference during her first year in 2004. During her junior campaign, Lee was named the MAAC Offensive Player of the Year and was once again a First Team All-Conference selection. She ended her career holding the Fairfield records in both digs (1,647) and digs per game (3.88). She was only the fifth Stag in school history to record 1,000 kills and 1,000 digs.

Additionally, Lee has gained valuable coaching experience working with girls, ages 12-17, at Nike Volleyball Camps in Fairfield, Conn. She has also worked with junior players in her hometown of Hilo and has been coaching at the club level at the Atlantic Valley Vol-leyball Club in New Jersey the last two years.

Rachel Refenes enters her second season as an assistant coach. She was hired by Rutgers on March 25, 2011.

“Having Rachel here for a second year obviously advances the camaraderie and the conti-nuity in the staff,” said head coach CJ Werneke. “She’s increasing her role, heading up our recruiting efforts, our blocking systems on the court and working with our middles. Anytime you can have a second-year coach who is more familiar with how we do things here, it’s great. I’m really looking forward to having her on our staff for years to come and working

with her from here on out.”

Refenes comes to RU after spending the past two seasons as an assistant coach at Binghamton. While with the Bearcats, Refenes helped the program reach new heights as they advanced to a pair of America East tournaments and won the America East Cham-pionship in 2009, earning an NCAA Tournament bid in the process.

The Menomonee Falls, Wis. native arrived at Binghamton after serving as the top assistant at Lehigh University in 2007 and 2008. Prior to her coaching the Mountain Hawks, Refenes served as the head coach of the Wisconsin Jrs-18 Blue squad based out of Kenosha, Wis.

Refenes enjoyed a decorated playing career at Ole Miss and Ball State. She spent her first two years of college at Mississippi, where her sophomore and freshman year block totals still rank first and second on the program’s all-time single season list for the rally scoring era. After transferring to Ball State for her junior and senior seasons, Refenes shined, putting together two of the best seasons in Cardinals’ history.

As a junior, she ranked eighth in the nation in blocks per game (1.67) and was named to the All-MAC Second Team, as well as an honorable mention on the AVCA All-Midwest team.

She followed up her strong junior campaign with an even stronger senior season, as she was a First-Team All-MAC selection and was named to the AVCA All-Midwest team. Refenes was also chosen to the AVCA All-American Honorable Mention squad and picked up an honorable mention CVU.com Stellar Spikers accolade as well.

Following her collegiate career, Refenes played professional volleyball for Nova KBM Branik in Maribor, Slovenia.

Refenes graduated from Ball State in the spring of 2006 with a bachelors’ degree in liberal arts and has minors in history and psychology.

In 2011, head coach CJ Werneke led the squad to its third straight season with double-digit wins, compiling 10. With 12 newcomers and eight returners to his 2012 team, the stage is set for the program to have a breakout campaign in Werneke’s fifth year at the helm.

Last season, the team won three neutral site games, and posted a 7-6 record at home. Werneke’s aim is to build RU’s road success in the upcoming campaign.

“I think everybody from our staff, down to our players, know if we don’t make the BIG EAST Tournament, we’re going to be disappointed,” said Werneke. “I think it’s one of those years where for our program to take the next step, making the BIG EAST Tournament has to be an expectation. Not just a goal, but we expect to make it, now we’ve got to go earn it.”

Werneke looks for this to be the season the team makes a jump in conference play and an appearance in postseason action.

SCHEduLE

Rutgers has compiled a difficult schedule for the 2012 campaign with 15 BIG EAST games. The Scarlet Knights will participate in four tournaments throughout the sea-son and will face five teams that made the 2011 NCAA Tournament.

The team will be tested from the open, beginning the season at the Hurricane Invitational hosted by Miami (Aug. 24-25). Rutgers is set for three games in Coral Gables, Fla., and will face Samford and Wofford on Aug. 24, and will play Miami on Aug. 25. Werneke’s alma mater Samford and host Miami each made the NCAA Tournament last season.

“We’ll find out what we’re made of right off the bat,” said Werneke. “It’s going to be a good litmus test to see where we’re at, a good checkpoint. Obviously it’s great because senior Stephanie Zielinski is also from that area, she’s from Fort Lauderdale. So, one of our goals is to get our kids back to their area.”

The Scarlet Knights will make their first home appear-ance in the Rutgers Invitational (Aug. 31-Sept. 1) at the College Ave Gym. Iona (Aug. 31), New Hampshire (Aug. 31) and Rhode Island (Sept. 1) will visit for the tourna-ment. Rutgers will also participate in the Spartan Clas-sic, hosted by Norfolk State in Norfolk, Va. Games in that tournament include UNC-Wilmington (Sept. 7), Stetson (Sept. 8) and Norfolk State (Sept. 8).

“Any time we can play at home, it’s going to be an advan-tage,” said Werneke. “To be able to host a home tourna-ment and have our kids play in front of their friends and family here, that’s great.”

The last tournament appearance for the Scarlet Knights is scheduled for Sept. 14-15 at the Crowne Plaza Philadelphia West Penn Invitational Tournament hosted by UPenn. The Scarlet Knights will go head-to-head with Radford (Sept. 14), George Mason (Sept. 15) and UPenn (Sept. 15).

The non-conference schedule is composed of two road games with Fordham (Aug. 29) and Lehigh (Sept. 11) and a home match against Lafayette (Sept. 4).

Rutgers is set to open BIG EAST play with consecutive home games against USF (Sept. 22) and Pittsburgh (Sept. 23) in the College Ave Gym. The Scarlet Knights will then go on a tough BIG EAST four-game road trip, start-ing with Villanova (Sept. 28) and Georgetown (Sept. 30).

“It’s always a challenge navigating the BIG EAST,” said Werneke. “Every weekend is going to be a dog fight. We go into every weekend thinking that, ‘This is the week-end where we can go 2-0.’ We’ll take it one match at a time.”

RU will finish the road stand with defending BIG EAST Tournament champion Cincinnati (Oct. 5) and defend-ing BIG EAST regular-season champion Louisville (Oct. 7), which each made the 2011 NCAA Tournament. Rutgers is set to host Marquette on Oct. 14 to round out its matchups against tournament teams.

Other conference home games for RU include: Syra-cuse (Oct. 12), DePaul (Nov. 3), Notre Dame (Nov. 4) and senior day versus St. John’s (Nov. 7). Rutgers is scheduled to play BIG EAST road games at Seton Hall (Oct. 19), UConn (Oct. 27), St. John’s (Oct. 28) and De-Paul (Nov. 11).

The Scarlet Knights will play four home games that will be broadcast on RVision, presented by AT&T, via Scar-letKnights.com. Full matches that will be shown include New Hampshire (Aug. 31) in the Rutgers Invitational, and matches against USF (Sept. 22), DePaul (Nov. 3) and Notre Dame (Nov. 4). There will also be highlight packages provided for the contest versus Rhode Island (Sept. 1) and Senior Day against St. John’s (Nov. 7).

NEWCOmErS

The Scarlet Knights loaded up with talent this offseason, adding 12 newcomers, three of which are transfers.

Werneke expects the newcomers to make an impact and provide depth to a team that sustained injuries last season.

“This year, we wanted to kind of address that by bring-ing in and adding to the number of our roster,” said Werneke. “Obviously, when you do that it gives you more depth at each position. By bringing in multiple players who can play multiple positions, that increases our depth.”

This is the first time under Werneke’s tenure that RU had more newcomers than returners. The influx of tal-ent will add starting experience at the collegiate level. “The overall goal was one, let’s get deep at every posi-

tion and let’s create competition at every position,” said Werneke. “I know that this class will do that. We’re ex-cited to see how it shakes out on the court.”

OuTSIdE HITTEr

Rutgers made tremendous strides at outside hitter a season ago and is looking to expand upon that in 2012.

Brittany Bozzini, a junior, stood out last season, finishing third on the team with 225 kills and 292 digs. She also tallied 52 assists, second-best on the Scarlet Knights. Bozzini played most of last season with a shoulder in-jury, undergoing surgery in the offseason.

“Every indication is she’s going to be ready by the time preseason hits, if not, by the end of preseason,” said Werneke. “She’s an experienced leader who has a high level of volleyball and I think we’re really good when she’s on the court.”

Sophomore Sofi Cucuz had a breakout freshman sea-son, finishing second on the team with 263 kills on 776 attempts. Bozzini led the squad with 889.

“We couldn’t have asked more of (Cucuz),” said Wer-

neke. “I know she’s working hard this summer. She’s just a workhorse, so there’s no question she’s going to be ready.”

The Scarlet Knights will also look for help from Kylie Orr. The senior missed time in 2011 due to injury, and will look to rebound in her final season.

“If we can find a way to keep her injury-free and she stays healthy, there are going to be more of those mo-ments that she really impacts a match and kind of turns the tide for us,” said Werneke.

mIddLE BLOCkEr

The middle blocker position returns an ample amount of experience. After missing 14 matches last season, senior Alex Jones returns to the net. Jones finished fourth on the team with 224 kills last season despite playing in just 66 sets. She led the squad with a .383 hitting percentage, second all-time at Rutgers, and ranked third on the team with 60 blocks.

“Alex, at times, can be if not the dominant, than one of the more dominant middles in our conference,” said Werneke. “I think if we can surround her with some help like we have and she develops like she has and can stay healthy, we’re expecting a great year from her.”

SETTEr

Stephanie Zielinski enters her senior season primed to be a four-year starter at setter. The Ft. Lauderdale, Fla., native, topped the Scarlet Knights with 1,151 assists last season, good for sixth on the school’s single sea-son assists list. Her 2,913 career assists rank fourth all-time at Rutgers. Zielinski is 1,016 assists away from moving into second place in school history. She finished second on the team with 70 blocks.

“We’ve got basically a three-year starter in Stephanie Zielinski, who just needs to put it together for a full sea-son,” said Werneke. “Obviously, when you have a senior, experienced player in that position, it’s very important to make your team go. We’re excited about her being back and having the leadership and ability she has.”

Sophomore Taylor Nelson will also look for time after seeing action in two matches (three sets) last season.

dEFENSIvE SpECIALIST

Despite losing the team’s dig leader, Kallie Pence (380), the defensive specialist position has key return-ees. Sophomore Alyssa Monka played in all 31 matches last season, while senior Kelsey Ross saw action in 26 contests. Monka and Ross each posted triple-digit digs (191, 131) last season.

“Kelsey is one of those natural leaders that people look to. Her presence makes us better,” said Werneke. “(Alyssa) had a decent freshman year. Again, she got injured in the spring, so we’re seeing how that trans-lates to the fall.”OuTLOOk

Coach Werneke has laid the foundation for 2012 to be a breakthrough season for the Scarlet Knights, putting together three straight seasons with double-digit wins.

“We’ve got to compete every day and earn the right to play,” said Werneke. “If we can do that and gain some consistency, we’re going to have a great year. We’ve got to one, compete every day in practice, two, get more con-sistent and three, just stay on the task at hand. If we can find a way to have our team stay focused on the team and the goals, then we could have one of those years.

Rutgers University volleyball overcame several obstacles throughout the season to win double-digit matches for the third-straight year under head coach C.J. Wer-neke and continued to lay the foundation for future success. The record of 10-21 overall and 3-11 in the BIG EAST does not tell the whole story of the season.

“Overall, there were some good moments, some great moments and then some moments that just got away from us,” said Werneke. “I look at it as a season of good achievements and some setbacks. However, I feel that it was a little un-fulfilled. I also feel that this year was a season that was full of potential. It was marked that we have not reached the peak yet.”

Seniors Hannah Curtis (Wasilla, Alaska) and Kallie Pence (College Station, Texas) left their mark on the program in their final season, leading the team in kills (278) and digs (380), respectively. Pence’s dig total was the fourth-highest in a season in Rutgers history as she started every match at libero. She also leaves with the 10th-most assists in school history (730). Curtis totaled 87 blocks in 2011 to bring her career total to 270, 10th-most in school history.

“Words cannot describe how valuable the seniors were to this program at Rut-gers,” said Werneke. “Not only statistically and the skills they bring to the court, but who they are as people. They truly believe in our staff and what we are doing here and support the direction that we are going as a team. They absolutely are the foundation for our program moving forward.”

Junior Stephanie Zielinski (Fort Lauderdale, Fla.) also had a season to remember with 1,151 assists (sixth-most in school history) and 332 digs to accumulate a BIG EAST-leading 18 doubles-doubles from the setter position. Zielinski’s career total of 2,913 assists sits in fourth place all-time at Rutgers heading into her senior season.

“She became much more consistent as the season went on,” said Werneke. “It was an overall improvement across the board for her, which goes very well for the future of this program. I look forward to seeing her make a positive improvement going into next season.”

Junior Alex Jones (Chesapeake, Va.) had a breakout year, but was hampered by injuries midway through the year that forced her to miss 14 matches. Despite the time missed, she still amassed 224 kills and put together a .383 hitting per-centage, tied for the highest in the BIG EAST and the second-highest mark in the Rutgers single-season record book.

“It is just a tribute to her work ethic and her physical ability,” said Werneke of the middle blocker. “I think that mentally she is gaining her confidence that she wants to be that go-to player for the team. That is something that we will continue to develop with her because she has all the physical tools, it is the mental aspect and the understanding of how good she can really be for this team.”

The team also saw an immediate impact from a pair of freshmen that had an op-portunity to see significant playing time, Sofi Cucuz (Crown Point, Ind.) and Alyssa Monka (Rancho Cucamonga, Calif.). Both appeared in all 31 matches with Cucuz re-cording 263 kills up front and Monka picking up 191 digs as a defensive specialist.

“No doubt, [Sofi Cucuz] had a great rookie season for us,” said Werneke. “It was great to see her come in and compete extremely well at a very high level right away as a freshman. As the year progressed, she definitely gained more confi-dence. The future is bright for her.

“Obviously, [Alyssa Monka] has the skill set to play, but she is going to have to con-tinue to develop,” continued Werneke. “To take the next step, she really needs to combine everything she has together now as far as quickness and preparation.”

The Scarlet Knights also saw the development of sophomore Brittany Bozzini (Saratoga, Calif.), who tallied 292 digs and 225 kills. Season Review

The 35th season of Rutgers volleyball started in Texas at the Sam Houston State Invitational. Even though the team only won one of four matches, it allowed Pence to play in her home state – something that the team tries to do every year with a nonconference tournament trip.

“We do schedule trips and tournaments to get our players back home to where they are from,” said Werneke about scheduling. “This is something that we make a conscious effort for each season.”

The trip back from Texas to New Jersey was delayed several days due to Hur-ricane Irene, forcing the home-opening match versus NJIT to be pushed back one day. That did not seem to bother the Scarlet Knights as they won their first match at College Ave Gym over the Highlanders in four sets on a season-high .302 hit-ting percentage. Jones notched 20 kills in the victory to lead all players.

That weekend, Rutgers traveled to Fairfield, Conn. to participate in three-matches at the Sacred Heart Invitational. RU won its first two matches in five sets against Hartford and Brown to extend its winning streak to four, but fell to host Sacred Heart in the championship. In the win over the Hawks, Jones and Pence both had team season highs with 27 kills and 30 digs, respectively, to help the team earn the win. The victory over the Bears was just as epic as the Scarlet Knights over-came match point six times to steal the win.

Following a loss at Hofstra, Rutgers hosted the Rutgers Invitational at the Col-lege Ave Gym, welcoming Binghamton, Howard and Princeton. The Bearcats took home the championship as Rutgers could only take the match against Howard.

“It is important to have a home tournament on our schedule,” said Werneke. “It puts the girls in our comfort zone and gives us a nice break from traveling, es-pecially early on in the academic year. It was a great experience to compete in a tournament in our home gym.”

Rutgers stayed at home that week to defeat Lehigh in one of the more dominat-ing performances of the season. The match allowed Zielinski to move into fourth all-time in assists at Rutgers with 31 in the three sets.

The team hit the road that weekend to the Hampton Inn Classic at No. 5 Penn State, one of the most storied programs in NCAA volleyball history. The Scarlet Knights dropped matches to Florida Gulf Coast, Long Island and the hosts, but gained valuable experience.

“It was a great experience for our kids to see what a national-level program looks like,” said Werneke. “It was good to show my team how physical they are and how they approached the match. It was just a great environment to play in a historic building like Penn State. Playing in that tournament this season, I am sure will be a moment that many of our players will never forget.”

The team struggled with consistency throughout the BIG EAST season, but man-aged to steal sets from some of the top teams in the league, including Cincinnati, Syracuse and Marquette. RU took the Golden Eagles to the brink on their home court after taking the first two sets.

In the midst of the conference season, RU stepped out of the league to overtake Fordham in four sets. The Rams were a team that Rutgers had struggled with in years past and the victory showed progress and validation of the program-building process, Werneke mentioned after the win.

One of the biggest highlights of the season was the sweep over Seton Hall at the College Ave Gym on Oct. 14. The Scarlet Knights took it to the Pirates with a .250 hitting percentage and a strong defensive effort to defeat the rivals for the second-consecutive year.

“It is an important win for us every year when we play them,” said Werneke. “We showed we do have the mindset and potential to put together big wins.”

The Scarlet Knights did put together two big wins to end the season, defeating Connecticut and St. John’s at the College Ave Gym to finish the season at 7-6 at home. It was the first BIG EAST weekend sweep for Rutgers since 2005 and the first under Werneke.

“There is just something about playing at ‘The Barn,’” said Werneke. “It is a great environment to play in and it brings out the confidence in all our players.”

Playing in front of many former players on “Alumni Weekend,” the Scarlet Knights looked at ease against the Huskies, pushing them away in three sets with a team conference-best .283 hitting percentage.

Rutgers continued the momentum the following day against the Red Storm after honoring Curtis and Pence in a “Senior Day” ceremony before the match. The two finished their careers as the first players to have played a full four years under Werneke at Rutgers.

“It was a great weekend for us,” said Werneke after the match. “It was great to end with two big wins and end with the same BIG EAST record as last year, despite everything that has gone on with the multitude of injuries, lineup changes and the struggles we had early on. What a great way to put it together.”

The match was one of the more hotly-contested ones of the season as St. John’s re-sponded to Rutgers several times, but RU closed out the victory with a 15-11 fifth-set win. Curtis and Pence went out strong with 13 kills and 14 digs, respectively.

“I feel that ending the season on two great wins will definitely carry over in the offseason and into next season,” said Werneke. “We can walk away having an unfulfilled feeling, but at least it will catapult us into the spring with some team confidence. We have a strong belief in our abilities to play well on the court.”

Robert L. Barchi is the 20th president of Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, a position he assumed on September 1, 2012. From 2004 to 2012, Dr. Barchi served as president of Thomas Jefferson University, nationally regarded as a top university dedicated to health sciences education and research. Previously, he was provost and chief academic officer of the University of Pennsylvania, where he had responsibility for Penn’s 12 schools, their academic programs, athletics, students, and faculty.

Dr. Barchi began his academic career in 1972 on the Penn faculty. He founded the univer-sity’s Department of Neuroscience, was chair of Penn’s Department of Neurology, and for more than a decade was director of its Mahoney Institute of Neurological Sciences. Ap-pointed provost and chief academic officer in 1999, he recruited new leadership for nine of the twelve schools at Penn and established a number of university-wide interdisciplinary educational and research institutes.

Dr. Barchi assumed the presidency of Thomas Jefferson University in 2004. Under his leadership, the university grew from three to six schools, including the establishment of the Jefferson School of Pharmacy. During his eight-year presidency, enrollment across Jefferson increased more than 50%, fundraising doubled in spite of the economic down-turn, and 22 new endowed professorships and 50 endowed scholarships were estab-

lished. He also oversaw the transformation of the institution’s urban environment into a vibrant university campus.

Throughout his career, Dr. Barchi has been active as a clinical neurologist and as researcher in the fields of neuroscience and neurology. In 1993, he was elected to the Institute of Medicine of the National Academy of Sciences for his work on the struc-ture and function of voltage-gated ion channels. He is also a member of the American Society for Clinical Investigation and the Association of American Physicians, and is a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. Barchi re-ceived his B.S. and M.S. degrees from Georgetown University, and Ph.D. and M.D. degrees from the University of Pennsylvania.

A New Jersey native with a strong passion for his alma mater, Tim Pernetti has come full-circle in becoming one of the na-tion’s youngest leaders in college athletics. A former student-athlete “On the Banks”, Pernetti was named Rutgers’ sixth Director of Inter-collegiate Athletics on February 26, 2009. He oversees 24 men’s and women’s intercollegiate teams in New Brunswick, a larger number than fielded at most of the

university’s peer institutions. Pernetti has been influential in the world of college athletics since he received a bachelor’s degree in journalism and mass media from Rutgers in 1993, and a mas-ter’s degree in communication in 1995. Pernetti’s influence on Rutgers Athletics has been immediate – from the key coaching hires of Mike Rice (men’s basketball), Dan Donigan (men’s soccer) and Brian Brecht (men’s lacrosse) – to securing the first two naming rights partnerships in Rutgers Athletics history. Under his leadership, Rutgers inked a 10-year naming rights deal with High Point Solutions to acquire the naming rights for Rutgers Stadium, along with a 10-year contract with Audi for the Audi Rutgers Club at High Point Solutions Stadium. Both deals have net-ted the Department of Athletics nearly one million dollars in new revenue to the annual budget. Two other key objectives on Pernetti’s watch were to secure a new food vendor for Rutgers Athletics and secure an all-sports shoe and apparel deal for the department. Pernetti led the charge to bring Sodexo to Rutgers as the exclusive concessionaire and caterer for the Athletics Department. The 10-year agreement will enhance the gameday experience, significantly increase revenues to Athletics, and fund future capital improvements at High Point Solutions Stadium and the RAC. He further directed negotiations with Nike to execute the first-ever all-sports shoe and apparel deal for all 24 sports at Rutgers. The five-year agreement worth ap-proximately $5.2M in equipment and apparel will provide state-of-the-art apparel for all Rutgers student-athletes. During his introductory press conference, Pernetti spoke about his vision to build a broadband network to deliver hundreds of live events. That promise has blossomed into RVision, powered by ScarletKnights.com, as RVision has streamed hundreds of live events per year, including unprecedented live game coverage for

many of the Scarlet Knights Olympic Sports. Prior to returning to Rutgers, Pernetti was the Executive Vice President, Content, for CBS College Sports Network. In that role, he oversaw the rights and relationship business, on-air talent, and all network programming and content on air, online and across all distribution platforms for the nation’s first company dedicated to college sports. Pernetti helped to build the CBS College Sports Network, previous-ly CSTV, prior to its launch in 2003, and has played a critical role in establishing it as the multi-media leader in college sports pro-gramming, content, news and information. He was a recipient of the prestigious Sports Business Journal Forty under Forty Award, and the Multichannel News 40 under 40 Award both in 2008.

Charged with developing relationships, acquiring rights and creat-ing multi-platform original programming for the first ever 24-hour sports college sports network, Pernetti successfully navigat-edthrough a complicated web of media rights deals to come up with new ways toserve college sports fans.

Pernetti worked closely with the NCAA and hundreds of schools in every major conference, securing over 2,500 hours ofevent pro

gramming each year and multiple NCAA Championships across 35 men’s and women’s sports. Pernetti was in charge of the CBS College Sports Network exclusive long-term agreements with the US Naval Academy, Mountain West Conference, Conference USA, and the Atlantic 10. Further, he managed company relationships with more than 30 conferences and thousands of institutions. Pernetti remains most proud of establishing a strong relation-ship in women’s collegiate sports including the establishment of a women’s basketball game of the week package in 2004 with the Big East Conference. In 2006, Pernetti spearheaded a landmark multi-media part-nership with the NCAA to make CBS College Sports Network the home of Division II Sports. The innovative deal effectively increased the scope and reach of NCAA Division II sports with hundreds of games now available nationally via the broadcast network and online. Pernetti’s commitment to providing greater exposure to women’s and under-served sports is evidenced by the network’s unprece-dented coverage of lacrosse and volleyball, among others. He has also been at the forefront of the development and creation of the Collegiate Nationals, which crowns champions in dozens of high endurance sports, and innovative original production including CBS College Sports Network’s groundbreaking NCAA March Madness Central, NCAA March Madness Highlights on CBS College Sports, and the WIRED franchise which gives viewers an inside look at

games and events through wireless microphones on coaches dur-ing game action. Prior to joining CBS College Sports Network, Pernetti served eight years at ABC-TV and ABC Sports most recently as Director of Programming, where he was integral in acquiring, managing and developing several ABC Sports properties including college foot-ball, the Bowl Championship Series, and college basketball. For five years, Pernetti handled relationships and negotiated televi-sion rights with all of the major collegiate conferences. As a stu-dent at Rutgers, Pernetti was a four-year letterwinner at tight end on the Rutgers football squad. He was also the color commenta-tor for Rutgers Football on the Rutgers Football Radio Network and announced weekly NFL games nationally on Sports USA Radio. A resident of Oakland, N.J., Pernetti is married to the former Dani-elle Bahto. His wife also graduated from Rutgers and was a let-terwinner on the women’s lacrosse team. Danielle and Tim are the proud parents of their three children – Max, Conor and Natalie. In his spare time Pernetti is the Commissioner of Oakland (N.J.) Recreation Youth football program, serves on the Board of Direc-tors of the Reed Academy (a school in Oakland serving children with autistic spectrum disorder), and has been named a member of the NY/NJ Super Bowl Host Committee for Community Engagement.

A bRIEF HISTORYRutgers, The State University of New Jersey, is one of the leading universities in the nation. The university is comprised of 28 degree-granting divisions; 10 undergraduate colleges, 10 graduate schools, and eight schools offering both undergraduate and graduate degrees. Six are located in Camden, eight in Newark, and 13 in New Brunswick and one in Newark and New Brunswick.

Rutgers has a unique history as a colonial college, a land-grant institution, and a state university. Char-tered in 1766 as Queen’s College, the eighth institution of higher learning to be founded in the colonies, the school opened its doors in New Brunswick in 1771 with a handful of first-year students. During its early years, the college developed as a classic liberal arts institution. In 1825, the name of the college was changed to honor a former trustee and Revolutionary War veteran, Colonel Henry Rutgers.

Rutgers College became the land-grant college of New Jersey in 1864, resulting in the establishment of the Rutgers Scientific School, featuring departments of agriculture, engineering, and chemistry. Further expansion in the sciences came with the founding of the New Jersey Agricultural Experiment Station in 1880, the College of Engineering (now the School of Engineering) in 1914, and the College of Agriculture (now the School of Environmental and Biological Sciences) in 1921. The precursors to several other Rutgers divisions were also established during this period: the College of Pharmacy (now the Ernest Mario School of Pharmacy) in 1892, the New Jersey College for Women (now Douglass Residential College, part of the School of Arts and Sciences) in 1918, and the School of Education (now Graduate School of Education) in 1924.

In 1924, Rutgers College officially became Rutgers University; a reflection of the institution’s rapidly expanding number of schools and academic pro-grams. Early in the century, Rutgers had begun offering educational opportunities to women when the New Jersey College for Women was founded in 1918, and to adult learners when University College, an evening division, was established in 1934. After World War II, enrollment exploded as Rutgers admitted all qualified candidates under the GI Bill. Rutgers was becoming an institution for all people, and in 1945 and 1956, state legislative acts formally designated Rutgers as The State University of New Jersey. A flurry of expansion ensued. The University of Newark (now Rutgers–Newark) joined Rutgers in 1946, followed by the College of South Jersey (now Rut-gers–Camden) in 1950. An ambitious building program added libraries, classrooms, and student housing across the three regional campuses. In 1969, Livingston College opened, providing a co-educational residential experience with a special commitment to diversity. Graduate education in the arts and sciences grew through the establishment of the Graduate School–New Brunswick, the Graduate School–Newark, and the Graduate School–Camden. Pro-fessional schools were formed to serve students in the fields of business; communication, information, and library studies; criminal justice; education; fine arts; law; management and labor relations; nursing; planning and public policy; psychology; public affairs and administration; and social work. Meanwhile, as industry and government sought partners in solving problems and advancing knowledge, the concept of the research university emerged.

In 1981, Rutgers adopted a blueprint for its transformation into a major public research university. With increased support from state, federal, and corporate partners, Rutgers’ strength in research grew dramatically. In 1989, in recognition of its enhanced stature, Rutgers was invited to join the prestigious Association of American Universities, an organization comprising the top 61 research universities in North America. Today, professors and students work in more than 200 specialized research centers, unraveling mysteries in marine sciences, early childhood education, neuroscience, advanced materials, climate change, nutrition, homeland security, transportation, stem cells, and many other areas that can improve life both in New Jersey and around the world.

A 2007 major reorganization of undergraduate education in New Brunswick reinvigorated the undergraduate experience for both students and faculty by combining the traditions and strengths of four undergraduate liberal arts colleges—Douglass, Livingston, Rutgers, and University—into a single School of Arts and Sciences.

With 28 schools and colleges, Rutgers offers more than 100 undergraduate majors and more than 180 graduate and professional degree programs. The university graduated more than 13,000 students last year, and has more than 400,000 living alumni residing in all 50 states and on six continents. Rutgers also sponsors community initiatives in all 21 New Jersey counties. Universitywide, new degree programs, research endeavors, and community outreach are in development to meet the demands of the 21st century.

Today, Rutgers continues to grow, both in its facilities and in the variety and depth of its educational and research programs. The university’s goals for the future include the continued provision of the highest quality education, along with the increased support of research and commitment to public service to meet the needs of society.
