Entering his second year at the helm of the program, Chris MacKenzie was named the second head women’s ice hockey coach in program his-tory at the University of Connecticut on May 2, 2013. A 12-year veteran of the collegiate coaching ranks, MacKenzie brings experience in both the women’s and men’s games to his post at UConn.

During MacKenzie’s inaugural season in Storrs in 2013-14, the Huskies posted a six-win improvement from the prior year. The signature win of the campaign came at home on Feb. 9, 2014, when UConn blanked then-No. 7 Boston College at Freitas Ice Forum for the program’s first win over a ranked opponent since 2010.

MacKenzie’s charges also excelled in the classroom during his first season, with UConn placing 12 student-athletes on the Women’s Hockey East All-Academic Squad.

For the 2012-13 season, MacKenzie served as the assistant women’s coach at Ohio State. The Buckeyes posted a 19-15-3 and fourth place finish in the WCHA. The 19 wins marked the second best win total in program history and the team reached as high as number six in the USCHO poll; the highest in program history.

Prior to joining the OSU staff, MacKenzie spent a two-year stint as the head coach for his alma mater at Niagara University, a year before the program was discontinued by the university. In two seasons, the Purple Eagles registered a 23-31-10 record, including two second place finishes in the CHA.

MacKenzie coached on the men’s side for his first eight seasons at UMass-Lowell. During those eight seasons, the Riverhawks experienced three 20-win seasons and were the Hockey East Tournament runner ups in 2009.

As a player and 2000 graduate at Niagara, MacKenzie served as a team captain for all four seasons upon the program’s inception in 1996. As a senior, he helped the Purple Eagles to a CHA Regular Season and Tournament Championship as well as an appearance in the NCAA Quarterfinals.

As a freshman, MacKenzie was honored by then-head coach Blaise MacDonald and then-assistant coach Dave Burkholder as the program’s first captain. He currently holds several records at Niagara, including most goals, assists and points in a career and season by a defenseman. MacK-enzie received Player of the Year honor in 1998 and was a CHA All-Star 2000.

MacKenzie earned his bachelor’s of arts in Commerce from Niagara in 2000, graduating Cum Laude, and earned a master’s of arts in psychology from UMass-Lowell in 2003.

MacKenzie and his wife Allison have a four year old daughter Morgan, and a one year old son, Ren.

Casey HandraHanAssistant Coach - Second Season - Niagara (’04)

A veteran of the hockey ranks with head coaching and professional playing experience, Casey Handrahan is in his second season as an assistant coach at UConn.

During his first year in Storrs in 2013-14, the Huskies posted a six-win improvement from the previous season. In addition to primary responsibilities with the UConn defensemen, Handrahan spearheaded a special teams unit that ranked as high as No. 2 in the nation in penalty kill during the season.

Handrahan came to UConn to join Chris MacKenzie’s first staff after spending the prior three seasons as the head coach and assistant athletic director at Neumann University.

Handrahan compiled a 35-36-7 overall record over three years at the helm of the Neumann Knights. In his inaugural season with the Knights the team achieved its highest overall season winning percentage in program history with a 16-7-4 overall record. Under his tutelage, two student-athletes were placed on All-ECAC teams. Handrahan’s teams were not only successful on the ice but also in the classroom as 25 student-athletes were placed on all-academic teams over his three years.

Prior to Neumann, Handrahan spent five seasons as a professional hockey player. In 2006, he was an integral part of the Kalamazoo K-Wings defense that won the Turner and Colonial Cup Championships in the United Hockey League. In the 2007-08 season, he was named the Defenseman of the Year with the Bloomington Prairie Thunder of the International Hockey League. In that same season, he was called-up to the American Hockey League for a stint with the Peoria Rivermen. In 2009, Handrahan went back to Kalamazoo and played his final season as a player-assistant.

A native of Niagara Falls, Ontario, Handrahan played his collegiate years at Niagara University. In 2004, he made his impact as the team won the CHA Championship and advanced to the NCAA tournament. While a Purple Eagle, Handrahan was named to the CHA All-Academic Team twice and received his bachelor’s degree in business marketing. Handrahan and his wife, Kelly have two daughters, Madison and Ryley.

JaClyn HaWkInsAssistant Coach - Second Season - UConn (’08)

Jaclyn Hawkins, a 2008 Husky graduate and the program’s all-time leading scorer, returned to Storrs in 2013-14 for her second stint behind the bench as an assistant coach. She is currently in the second season of her current run and holds primary responsibility for the UConn forwards, while also serving as the program’s liasion to multiple off-ice and recruiting efforts.

In the two years prior to Hawkins’ return to Storrs, she served as the Director of Player & Organization Development for the Connecticut Northern Lights.

Hawkins is familiar with the Huskies’ program after compiling a successful four-year career as a student-athlete and then moving from the ice to behind the bench and becoming a UConn assistant for the 2008-09 season. The Manotick, Ontario native returns to Storrs as an assistant coach after serving as the Director of Player and Organization development with the Connecticut Northern Lights in Simsbury. During her two years in Simsbury, Hawkins provided hockey services such as training, coaching and playing an integral role in the prep/college process for the athletes. Additionally, she designed and implemented off-ice stick handling and shooting, oversaw coaching requirements and ensured all coaches abided by USAH regulations and was a lead member of the Hockey Operations Committee.

In 2010, Hawkins created the website www.WomensHockeyLife.com which provides a multitude of services to female hockey players, parents and coaches. The site assists in sending players overseas, to college and prep schools. It also provides information to females on present and future oppor-tunities while providing personal insight from players at all levels through blogs, success stories and advice from coaches.

Hawkins played professionally in Switzerland for the ZSC Lions during the 2009-10 season. In 18 games there, she led the team with 29 goals and 26 assists for 55 points and helped the Lions to their first ever Swiss Championship game.

Hawkins, the 2004-05 Hockey East Rookie of the Year, served as a captain her senior and junior years at UConn, as well as an alternate captain her sopho-more season. She led the Huskies with a program-high 27 assists this past season while adding 14 goals for 41 points. Hawkins currently leads the UConn program in career goals, assists and points as she finished her collegiate career with the Huskies earning a program-record 22 wins.

In a total of 137 games with the Huskies, Hawkins contributed 144 points on 69 goals scored and 75 assists. As a junior, she led the Huskies with 18 goals, 18 assists and 36 points. As a sophomore, she led the program in all three categories as well, including 12 goals, 15 assists and 27 points.

2014-15 season PrevIeWIn the second year of Chris MacKenzie’s reign behind the bench, UConn will look to build on a 2013-14 campaign that saw it triple its win total from the prior season. The Huskies will rely on a solid core of veteran returners along with a highly-talented and versatile crop of freshman to guide the program forward.

FORWARDS (nine returning, four lost, six newcomers)

UConn’s most experienced bunch, the centers and wingers figure for Connecticut are primed to have a big season in 2014-15. Leading the way is senior captain Sarah MacDonnell, who led all Huskies with 27 points via a team-high 12 goals and 15 asissts a year ago. Her 27-point output placed her in a tie for 10th most points in a single season in UConn history. Also back to spearhead the offense is senior Kayla Campero, who scored 10 goals last season and moved into the top-10 in program history with 26 career goals.

Four other seniors will also bolster the position, with Rebecca Fleming (2-8-10 scoring line in ’13-14), Rachel Farrel (8-5-13), Emily Snodgrass (4-11-15) and Margaret Zimmer (1-5-6) all back in action after strong offensive seasons. Junior and assistant captain Leah Buress is one of UConn’s most reliable two-way players and is extremely efficient in the face-off dot, while sophomore Kelly Harris became a key cog on the power play in her rookie season. Junior Brit-tany Berisoff, who battled injuries throughout her sophomore campaign, will look to return to the form that saw her notch 15 points as a freshman.

Joining the fray at the forward spot are freshmen Madison Badeau, Justine Fredette, Shannon Godin, Theresa Knut-son, and Lindsay Roethke. Each bring a unique skill-set to Storrs after decorated prep careers and will have a chance to immediately crack the lineup during their rookie seasons.

DEFENSE (five returning, three lost, two newcomers)

A unit without a senior, the Husky defense still returns plenty of experience along the blue line. Redshirt junior and assistant captain Caitlin Hewes was limited to five games due to injury in an eventual redshirt season last year. Hewes was a Hockey East Honorable Mention All Star in 2012-13 and is a versatile, puck-moving defenseman with a career 6-10-16 scoring line.

Juniors Allie Hughes and Cassandra Opela have never missed a game between them in their first two seasons in Storrs. The duo combined for five assists last season and both finished among the top-10 in Hockey East in blocked shots. Sophomores Lexi Lersch and Jessica Stott both gained plenty of experience as freshmen last season. Lersch, a 2014 Hockey East Academic All Star off the ice, played in 29 games and led all UConn skaters with a -3 rating on the year. Stott played in 33 contests and notched a goal and an assist in her first season in National Flag Blue and White.

Joining the defensive corps are freshmen Cydnee Cook, Reese Maccario and Leah Lum. Both are veterans of the Canadian prep hockey ranks and Lum had a stint with the U-18 British Columbia Provincial team.

GOALTENDERS (two returning, one lost, one newcomer)

Junior Elaine Chuli will be back in goal for the Huskies in 2014-15 after a terrific sophomore season a year ago. Chuli was named a Hockey East Honorable Mention All Star after she turned in a 2.57 GAA with a .929 save percentage and two shutouts for UConn. The Ontario-native finished the season on a run of 16-consecutive contests in which she made at least 30 saves, and topped 40 stops on four separate occasions. She made a career-high 48 saves in a game at No. 7 Boston College, and later in the season turned away 45 shots against the Eagles in a win at Freitas Ice Forum. Chuli was a three-time Hockey East Defensive Player of the Week and was the Co-Goaltender of the Month in January.

Behind Chuli will be a tandem of senior Emily Walsh, who made six saves in her lone appearance back in 2012-13, and freshman Annie Belanger.

Strength and Conditioning Joel DeMarco • Asst. Strength & Conditioning CoachThe strength and conditioning program for the University of Connecticut is under the supervision of UConn Strength and Conditioning Coordinator Matt Balis. The Strength and Conditioning staff services all 24 of Connecticut’s intercollegiate teams. Assisting directly with the Strength and conditioning efforts for UConn hockey is strength and conditioning staff member Joel DeMarco. UConn hockey players have the use of two different weight rooms in the Harry A. Gampel Pavilion and the newly remodeled Hugh S. Greer Field House. In all, there are over 8,000 square feet of weight training facilities available for all UConn student-athletes. The weight room in the Harry A. Gampel Pavilion is a free weight facility and supplies the Husky student-athletes areas in which to perform their power and Olympic lifts. The facility in the Greer Field House is fitted with more free weights in which the UConn hockey players can incorporate circuit training, speed training and heavy negative workouts into their total strength-training program. Matt Balis and his staff supervise a strength and conditioning program for each individual athlete for training all year long. Each pro-gram can be manipulated in order to fulfill the specific needs of the individual. Specific testing is done to each hockey player to monitor

progress in strength, power, body composition, anaerobic conditioning and flexibility. These tests provide the coaches and medical staff with an accurate athletic profile on each athlete.

Department of Sports Medicine Dr. Giselle Aerni • Interim Director of Sports Medicine/Head Team Physician Alison O’Connor • Athletic Trainer

The Department of Sports Medicine in the University of Connecticut Division of Athletics works as an integrated multidisciplinary team whose purpose is to provide the optimal, safe environment for the hockey student-athletes to train and participate in their sport. The staff takes great pride in the individual attention paid to each student-athlete. They are devoted to preventing injury, rapidly diagnosing and treating injury and maximizing athletic performance. The disciplines of athletic training, strength and condi-tioning, sports medicine, orthopaedic sports medicine, optometry, nutrition, exercise physiology, and psychology work in concert to provide comprehensive care for the student-athlete.

The women's hockey team is spearheaded by Athletic Trainer Alison O’Connor. Physician coverage is provided by Giselle Aerni, MD, the Interim Director of Sports Medicine and Head Team Physician. The Orthopaedic Sports Medicine Specialists for the team

include Edward Collins, MD of the Connecticut Sports Medicine and Orthopaedic Center in Willimantic, Barry Messinger, MD of Sports Medicine and Orthopaedic Surgery in Manchester, Michael Joyce, MD of Glastonbury and St. Francis Hospital and Robert Arciero, MD of the University of Connecticut Health Center Department of Orthopaedics in Farmington. The Department of Sports Medicine works intimately with the Departments of Kinesiology and Nutritional Sciences on the University of Connecticut campus. This affords the student-athletes with the input of several nationally recognized exercise scientists. This cooperation also keeps the sports medicine staff at the cutting edge of developments in the fields of human performance and sports nutrition. Members of the sports medicine staff are actively engaged in research that directly benefits the care of all student-athletes. The UConn Sports Medicine team is housed in state-of-the-art facilities in the Hugh S. Greer Field House and the Harry A. Gampel Pavilion, as well as a new and expanded sports medicine treatment center located in The Burton Family Football Complex. In addition to providing the finest in medical care for the UConn hockey program, the Department of Sports Medicine at the University of Connecticut administers to the daily needs of 600 male and female intercollegiate student-athletes who are competing in 24 different varsity programs. The Department of Sports Medicine at the University of Connecticut plays a critical role in assuring that all UConn student-athletes have 24-hour access to the finest medical support and quality health care possible. Through patient care and ongoing research and education, the department con-tinues to provide Husky teams a competitive edge from the medical perspective.

Counseling Program for Intercollegiate Athletes Lindsay Darcy • CPIA CounselorThe University of Connecticut is committed to each hockey player, and all of its student-athletes, as a total person. Participation in athletics is important, but it represents only one aspect of the student-athlete’s college experience. At the University of Connecticut, academic achievement is the primary concern. Impressively, for the past five years the Connecticut student-athlete retention rate has been 99.0 percent. The University's commitment to the student-athlete is a dual one. Participation in athletics is not viewed as an obstacle to the attainment of one's educational goals, rather it is seen as a complementary activity. Each supports the other. Athletic excellence is stressed, but academic achievement is never compromised - indeed, it is given the utmost priority. The University realizes that the hockey team and all student-athletes, due to their academic involvement, are required to commit a large percentage of their personal time to University sponsored athletic activities. For this reason, the University recognizes the need for a support program for its inter-collegiate athletes. The Counseling Program for Intercollegiate Athletes (CPIA) constantly assists all student-athletes in achieving their academic goals. The CPIA staff serves as a liaison to the academic faculty, the Division of Athletics, and the student-athlete. In serving as a liaison between the Connecticut student-athletes and University faculty and staff, the CPIA counselors also provide assistance in secur-ing appropriate support services available with the University. These include orientation for student-athletes, supervised study halls, individual tutors and tutorial centers (an English/Writing Center, Math Center and Reading Center), and learning skills seminars. For the past three years, the writing lab and computers have been networked to a national database which allow all student-athletes to do research at their actual computer stations.

The Women’s Hockey East Association will celebrate its 12th season of play after officially commencing league action in the fall of 2002. In 11 years, the conference has emerged as one of the top women’s ice hockey conferences in the nation, having sent eight teams to the Frozen Four and 15 teams to the NCAA Tournament, which includes one of the most successful seasons in 2012-2013, sending Boston University and Boston College to the Frozen Four with the Terriers making the league’s third appearance in the NCAA National Championship Game. In 2013, the Boston University Terriers captured their third Hockey East Tournament Title in the last four years against Northeastern in March. BU was presented with the newly named Bertagna Trophy, as the Hockey East Tournament Champions, at the Hyannis Youth and Community Center in Hyannis, in honor of the conference’s founding Commissioner Joe Bertagna. The Terriers also earned their second regular-season championship in school history with a 18-2-1 record in league games. Boston College swept the three major awards at the postseason awards banquet, with Alex Carpeter winning Player of the Year, Haley Skarupa earn-ing Rookie of the Year honors and Katie King Crowley taking home the Coach of the Year trophy for the first time in her coaching career. 92 student-athletes were named to the league’s 2012-13 All-Academic Team in the conferences 11th season of play. Each student-athlete achieved a grade point average (GPA) of 3.0 or better in each of the two academic periods during which she was actively competing. Vermont junior Megan Dalbec and Maine sophomore Kate Massey shared the distinction as Hockey East Top-Scholar Athlete for the second straight season, as the duo earned perfect 4.0 GPA’s for the season. Dalbec receives the award for the third consecutive season for the Catamounts. The league also honored a league record 10 student-athletes that received “Distinguished Scholar” status. Those earning “Distinguished Scholar” status achieved a 3.0 or better in each semester over four varsity seasons. Northeastern led the way with three selection, while Boston University and Providence placed two amongst the select group. Brittany Esposito, Siena Falino and Casey Pickett earn the distinction from the Northeastern Huskies, while Alissa Fromkin and Cristina Wiley were honored from the Terriers. Jessica Cohen and Jessica Vella were also honored from the Friars squad. Boston College’s Corinne Boyles, Maine’s Chloe Tinkler, New Hampshire’s Katie Brock and Vermont’s Emily Walsh were also bestowed the prestigious honor. In February 2007, the league debuted its inaugural “Skating Strides Against Breast Cancer”. The one-day event was hosted by Hockey East schools as a way to establish a greater fan base, to raise needed funds, and to work with the specific charities to raise awareness for both the league and the specific cause. In the initial year, close to $20,000 was donated back to local breast cancer charities (Friends of Mel’s Foundation and the American Cancer Society), vastly exceeding expectations. Last year the league raised $30,000 to bring the seven-year total to nearly $230,000. “Skating Strides” has won two national awards at NACMA in the “Single Day Attendance Promotion” category in 2007 and 2009. The eighth annual “Skating Strides Against Breast Cancer” will have an event on every WHEA campus this season, as well as participation by all of the Hockey East men’s teams over the course of a two weekends.

History As women’s ice hockey steadily expanded from its original status as an emerging sport to its current status as an established NCAA champion-ship sport, it became apparent that Hockey East should seriously consider sponsoring a separate league to accommodate its five member schools that initially had varsity programs for women: Boston College, Maine, New Hampshire, Northeastern and Providence. The uncertainty remained until a split in the Eastern College Athletic Conference grouped the five afore-mentioned programs into a separate league, the ECAC Women’s Eastern League, along with three other unaffiliated programs. Seeking league solidar-ity, administrators from the five Hockey East institutions acted. In September of 2001, the long-incubated idea became a reality when the athletic directors voted to found the new women’s league under the existing

Hockey East banner, with play scheduled to begin no later than the 2004-05 season. The five schools with varsity programs entered as charter members with the stipulation that any other Hockey East school that added a varsity women’s program in the future would be freely admitted to the league. Expediting the process in the interests of the participating teams, the league and the sport itself, Commissioner Joe Bertagna worked with a selected task force to successfully prepare the Hockey East women’s league for launch in the 2002-03 season, two years ahead of schedule. An important part of that process was the acceptance of an invitation extended to the University of Connecticut to join the newly formed league as its sixth active mem-ber. The triumphant effort immediately afforded the participating administrators a stronger voice in the advancement of their women’s ice hockey programs and alleviated the ECAC of continuing the maintenance of the Women’s Eastern League. Players, fans, coaches and administrators alike were all anticipating the intensified competition created by the new circle of teams that were already familiar rivals. In 2005, the Women’s Hockey East Association welcomed the addition of two more teams to its growing family, Boston University and the University of Vermont. For BU, it marked the inaugural season for women’s hockey as a varsity sport. The league athletic directors voted in June of 2012 to expand the playoff format and now all eight teams will qualify for the playoffs beginning in 2012-13 season, as opposed to six and four in previous seasons. Although the Women’s Hockey East Association is still in its infancy, its member programs have storied histories that include several championships and individual awards at the high-est levels of play. The first 13 ECAC championships were shared among New Hampshire, Northeastern and Providence, all charter members of Hockey East. Northeastern forward Brooke Whitney was named the recipient of the 2002 Patty Kazmaier Award as the nation’s top female collegiate player, an honor first won by New Hampshire’s Brandy Fisher in 1998. Had the award been in existence beforehand, it surely would have been won at some point by Cammi Granato, a three-time ECAC Player of the Year who led Providence to back-to-back championships in 1992 and 1993. Five years later, in 1998, alongside nine other alums of what are now Hockey East programs, Granato captained Team USA to the Olympic gold medal during the first Olympic tournament that featured women’s ice hockey as a medal sport. Granato was inducted into the U.S. Hockey Hall of Fame in October of 2010 for her contribu-tions to the sport. Beginning in 2009, the WHEA athletic directors voted to honor the league Player of the Year with the Cammi Granato Award. Perhaps the proudest legacy that the Women’s Hockey East Association has established is the Hockey Humanitarian Award. The most prestigious off-ice honor, and arguably the highest overall honor in the sport, the Hockey Humanitarian Award recognizes college hockey’s finest citizen each year and encompasses both male and female athletes in all divisions. Its winners have demonstrated outstanding contributions to society through leadership in charity work and volunteerism. Northeastern senior forward Missy Elumba was the 2009 recipient, as the fifth Hockey East student-athlete to receive the prestigious honor. Elumba was the 14th all-time recipient and joined former Husky goaltender Chanda Gunn, who received the award in 2004, as the second athlete in Northeastern women’s hockey history. BC’s Sarah Carlson received it in 2005, making Women’s Hockey East the first league to boast back-to-back winners.

Our Campus is ConnecticutIn addition to the main campus in Storrs, the University of Connecticut has a number of other campuses and schools around the state, which truly makes the state into the campus.

The UConn Health Center and John Dempsey Hospital is located in Farmington, just west of Hartford. Today, Bioscience Connecticut, an $864 million initiative, is transforming the campus of the UConn Health Center. Bioscience Connecticut is a forward-thinking plan to create thousands of construction and related jobs in the short-term and generate long-term, sustainable economic growth based on bioscience research, innovation, entrepreneurship and commercialization. It is a multifaceted plan that also includes initiatives to improve access to healthcare services in the region and beyond.

The University of Connecticut does make it in New York City and has a strong foothold on the entire Metropolitan Region. When the Huskies are in town – the “city that never sleeps” certainly takes notice.

The UConn men’s basketball team has long considered Madison Square Garden a home-away-from-home. This was proved yet against when the Huskies won the NCAA East Region there in 2014 en route to a national championship. UConn fans dominated the MSG crowd and filled the city’s hotels and restaurants with Husky pride.

UConn football makes its debut in New York City when the Huskies play Army at Yankee Stadium on Nov. 8.

W arde J. Manuel, who has had a distinguished career in intercollegiate

athletics that ranges from being a student-athlete to a director of athletics, became the Director of Athletics at the University of Connecticut in March of 2012.

Manuel, a 1990 graduate of the University of Michigan where he played both football and track and field, had most recently been the Director of Athletics at the University at Buffalo for six years.

His first academic year of 2012-13 was a highly successful one for UConn teams, highlighted by the women’s basketball team winning the NCAA Championship. In addition, UConn teams from men’s soccer, field hockey, women’s lacrosse and baseball all took part in NCAA tournament play while the women’s diving and men’s and women’s track and field pro-grams were all represented in NCAA individual championships.

This success more than continued into the 2013-14 academic year as UConn won three national championships for the first time in school histo-ry – men’s basketball, women’s basketball and field hockey. In addition, the men’s soccer team advanced to the NCAA quarterfinals.

UConn was just one of four schools nationally that finished in the top ten of the Capital One Cup on both the men’s and women’s side.

Manuel directed UConn’s acceptance into membership of Hockey East, the nation’s premier men’s ice hockey conference, as the Huskies begin play in the league in 2014-15.

Ground was broken for the UConn Basketball Champions Center in the spring of 2013 and the facility opened in the summer of 2014 to service both the Huskies’ men’s and women’s championship basketball teams.

Manuel oversaw a coaching transition in men’s basketball with the retire-ment of Hall of Fame coach Jim Calhoun and the hiring of former Husky student-athlete, NBA player and UConn assistant coach Kevin Ollie.

In December of 2013, Manuel hired former Notre Dame defensive coordinator Bob Diaco as UConn’s new football coach.

During his tenure, Manuel also hired new head coaches for the UConn men’s and women’s ice hockey, volleyball, women’s track and field and soft-ball program.

The UConn Division of Athletics once again had an outstanding rate performance in the NCAA Academic Progress Rate (APR) in 2014 as all three national championship teams posted a perfect 1000 single-year score while field hockey also had a perfect 1000 four-year score. A total of 14 UConn teams posted perfect single-year scores of 1000 and five had multi-year scores of 1000.

The men’s basketball team has had APR scores of 978, 947 and 1000 in the past three years as Manuel has helped develop a comprehensive academic plan for all UConn programs.

Manuel has already become a key leader in the American Athletic Conference and has been named a member of the league’s Finance Committee.

Manuel led a 20-sport program at Buffalo, an institution that is a mem-ber of the prestigious American Association of Universities. Buffalo enjoyed an unparalleled period of success during his time there from an athletic, aca-demic and community service perspective.

From an academic standpoint, teams at Buffalo enjoyed incredible suc-cess. When Manuel arrived at UB, there were four programs - football, men’s basketball, wrestling, and baseball - that fell far below the NCAA Academic Progress Rate (APR) cut score of 925. With a focused academic plan, all four teams posted a four-year APR rate above the cut score and at the end of 2009-10, 10 of UB’s 20 sports had scores of 975 or above.

Buffalo enjoyed great on-field success during Manuel’s time as the football team participated in the 2009 International Bowl and the men’s basketball team made postseason appearances in three of the past seven years. Olympic sports also thrived under Manuel’s leadership with accomplishments such as three-straight Dad Vail Regatta titles by the rowing team, six wrestlers earning spots at the 2011 NCAA Championship and the women’s tennis team making an appearance in the 2008 NCAA tournament. The sports of baseball and softball won a record number of games during his tenure and stu-dent-athletes earned All-American and all-conference honors at record rates.

Manuel was honored by Sports Business Journal as a 2008 national 40-Under-40 honoree after receiving the same honor from Business First of Buffalo in Fall of 2007. Manuel has served on a number of national and conference committees and boards.

In September of 2011, he was one of only three Athletic Directors asked to serve on the Collegiate Model Rules committee, a working group of the Division I Committee on Academic Performance, charged with broad over-view of the current NCAA Rules Manual.

He also currently serves on the NCAA Division I Championships/Sports Management Cabinet and served for four years as a member of the NCAA’s Academic Cabinet. During that time, he was selected as Chair of the NCAA Academic Eligibility & Compliance Transfer Ad Hoc Committee. He is a member of the Boards of the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics and the D1A Athletic Directors Association. He also serves as a member of the Council of Presidents Budget & Finance Committee and served for three years as the Chair of the Mid-American Conference Director of Athletics Finance Committee.

In June of 2007, Manuel accepted the Opportunity Award by all-time tennis great Billie Jean King, as Buffalo was recognized by the Women’s Sports Foundation as one of four “standout” colleges and universities in the nation for outstanding achievement in providing equitable athletic opportu-nities for its female student-athletes.

Prior to his time at Buffalo, he was the assistant and associate director of athletics for the University of Michigan, where he oversaw that school’s football and men’s basketball programs. In February 1998, he was named an assistant athletic director at Michigan with responsibilities for overseeing oper-ational facets of the university’s athletic program. He was named an associate athletic director in September 2000.

Born May 22, 1968, Manuel is a native of New Orleans, who was a high school All-American football player and played for the University of Michigan under its legendary coach, Bo Schembechler. Manuel earned multiple letters and started at defensive end in his sophomore year. His football career was cut short by a neck injury and he subsequently earned two letters on the Wolverines’ track and field team.

After graduating from Michigan, Manuel was coordinator of the univer-sity’s Wade H. McCree, Jr., Incentive Scholars Program from June 1990 to August 1993. The program is a partnership with The President’s Council of State Universities and Detroit Public Schools that helps students prepare for higher education at public universities in Michigan. He subsequently worked briefly as an academic advisor with the Georgia Tech Athletic Association before being named assistant athletic director of academic affairs.

In the course of working on a PhD in social work and psychology at Michigan, he earned a master’s degree in social work in 1993 and an MBA from Michigan’s Ross School of Business in April 2005.

Manuel and his wife, Chrislan, have a daughter, Emma (19), who is in her junior year at UConn, and a son, Evan (15).

In addition to all that the city of Hartford and the state of Connecticut has to offer, the region within two hours of Storrs is ripe with cultural and entertainment possibilities.

NEW YORK CITY (142 miles)

The largest city in the country and the “media capital of the world” is a UConn city. New York City is located approximately two hours from Storrs and when the Huskies are in town, they make their presence known. UConn took over Madison Square Garden in March 2014 when the Huskies won the NCAA East Regional on their way to the national championship. The Huskies make their football debut in the Big Apple this year when they play Army in November at the new Yankee Stadium. From the glimmer of Times Square, to the vast expanse of Central Park, to the majestic skyline, New York City can be easily reached by the Metro-North train lines that run into southern Connecticut. The metro New York area also boasts 10 major professional sports franchises.

SPRINGFIELD (47 miles)

The Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame is located less than an hour from Storrs in Springfield, Mass., just minutes from the YMCA where Dr. James Naismith invented the game in 1891. A must-see for any fan of the hardwood, the Hall of Fame reopened in the fall of 2002 in a $45 million home just off of Interstate 91 in Springfield. The pinnacle of any basketball career, the hall’s long list of inductees now includes UConn men’s basketball coach Jim Calhoun, a 2005 inductee, and women’s basketball coach Geno Auriemma, a 2006 inductee. Once you finish your tour of the Hall of Fame, Springfield’s neighboring suburb of Agawam is the home of Six Flags New England, the region’s largest amusement park.

BOSTON (86 miles)

The birthplace of the American Revolution, Boston’s historic Freedom Trail is a living history textbook, covering everything from the Battle of Bunker Hill to the midnight ride of Paul Revere. Meanwhile, the city blends its old world charm with a cosmopolitan new world attitude that is evidenced by some of the trendier shops and restaurants that line both historic Faneuil Hall Marketplace and the Back Bay’s Newbury Street. One of the world’s foremost centers of education, Boston is home to over 50 colleges and universities; perhaps the entire world’s most concentrated collection of colleges. The greater Boston area also includes the summer beach resorts on Cape Cod and the islands of Nantucket and Martha’s Vineyard. A hub of sporting activity, the 2004, 2007 and 2013 World Series Champion Boston Red Sox have called fabled Fenway Park home since 1912. The 2008 NBA Champion Boston Celtics and the 2011 Stanley Cup Champions Boston Bruins also call Beantown home, while the 2002, 2004 and 2005 Super Bowl Champion New England Patriots and MLS’ New England Revolution play outside of the city in Foxboro’s Gillette Stadium.

PROVIDENCE (51 miles)

Rhode Island’s capital city shows that one of the nation’s smallest states also has plenty to offer its visitors. The multi-cultural capital city, which dates back to 1636, is the Ocean State’s centerpiece. The best known hamlet on the Rhode Island shore, the ocean town of Newport is world famous for its mansions and is a popular vacation destination for those seeking aquatic activities. Newport’s renowned music festival is also a well-attended annual event.

T he sights and sounds of more than a century of intercollegiate athletics

competition come alive during a visit to the J. Robert Donnelly Husky Heritage Sports Museum.

Located in the UConn Alumni Center in the heart of the University of Connecticut’s main campus in Storrs, the Husky Heritage Sports Museum is the ultimate library documenting the wide-ranging successes of Connecticut’s athletic programs.

The state-of-the-art design and layout of the 2,700 square foot Husky Heritage Sports Museum, named after benefactor and 1940 Connecticut basket-ball and football captain J. Robert (Bob) Donnelly (shown above with wife M.J.), vividly captures all of the energy, excitement and enthusiasm that is associated with “Huskymania”. Donnelly passed away on Sept. 26, 2005.

The visitors’ UConn experience begins with the University of Connecticut “National Champions” Gallery. This unique museum addition, located in the entrance foyer of the Husky Heritage Sports Museum, was unveiled in December of 2004 and will serve as a permanent tribute to all University of Connecticut varsity teams that climbed to the mountaintop and earned the right to be called National Champions.

Currently, a total of 17 national champion squads, representing four differ-ent UConn sports, have team photos and national championship logos on display in the National Champions gallery.

Included in the National Champions Gallery is the unbeaten 1948 men’s soccer team of Coach John Squires, the 1981 and 1985 UConn women’s field hockey teams of Coach Diane Wright, the 2013 field hockey team of Coach Nancy Stevens, the 1981 men’s soccer team of Coach Joe Morrone, the 2000 men’s soccer team of Coach Ray Reid, the eight national championship women’s basketball teams of Coach Geno Auriemma (1995, 2000, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2009, 2010, 2013, 2014), the 1999, 2004 and 2011 UConn men’s basketball teams of Coach Jim Calhoun, and the 2014 UConn men’s basketball team of Coach Kevin Ollie.

Upon entering the Husky Heritage Sports Museum, visitors are greeted by a full figure statue of Jonathan, the legendary mascot of all Husky athletic teams.

Oversized banners proudly hang from the ceiling, displaying action images that feature 88 of Connecticut’s All-American stars representing 17 different intercollegiate sports.

A tour of the various sections of the Husky Heritage Sports Museum is a walk down memory lane for long-time followers of Connecticut athletics. For fans just becoming acquainted with UConn’s tradition of excellence, the various themes and areas of the museum, when woven together, narrate a com-plete and compelling sport-by-sport story line. The growth and development of Connecticut athletics is traced via text, photographs and select artifacts from its humble beginnings in the 1890s to its present day ranking among the elite major college athletic programs in the nation.

Included among the “must see” memorabilia in the Husky Heritage Sports Museum main concourse are the 1981 and 2000 NCAA National Championship Men’s Soccer trophies; the 1981 and 1985 NCAA National Championship

Women’s Field Hockey trophies; the 1950s era baseball gloves belonging to Connecticut’s three Dropo brothers-including Walt Dropo’s first baseman’s mitt when he was the American League Rookie of the Year with the Boston Red Sox in 1950; the 1935 Ramnapping Trophy, awarded annually to the winner of the Connecticut-Rhode Island football game; a 1931 football signed by the entire Connecticut squad; team photos of Connecticut’s first men’s (1901) and women’s (1902) basketball squads; and the Waterford Crystal NCAA National Championship trophies won by UConn Women’s Basketball (1995, 2000, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2009, 2010, 2013, 2014) and UConn Men’s Basketball (1999, 2004, 2011, 2014).

The pinnacle achievement of UConn’s 13 NCAA National Championships in both men’s and women’s basketball is preserved and promoted in a unique circular sanctuary–the Connecticut Basketball Rotunda, a gift of Herb and Marcia Dunn.

Championship trophies and related artifacts that chronicle UConn’s men’s and women’s national titles are prominently featured in the rotunda, as are life-size cutouts of Husky All-American stars Ray Allen and Rebecca Lobo. Celebratory paintings of head coaches Jim Calhoun and Geno Auriemma are on display along with a one-of-a-kind watercolor team photo of the 25-member UConn Men’s Basketball All-Century team.

Also within the Husky Heritage Sports Museum experience is a video wall featuring a 65-inch high definition television. Visitors can view numerous histor-ical moments in UConn history as captured on a variety of highlight films and documentaries.

Each display case of memorabilia and every historical photograph located within the walls of the J. Robert Donnelly Husky Heritage Sports Museum describe a portion of a truly remarkable story.

That story of the teams, the coaches, and student-athletes who have been part of the rich history that constitutes the University of Connecticut athletic experience is now being told on a daily basis at UConn’s Husky Heritage Sports Museum.

In addition, there is a display on the history of football at UConn – from its starts in 1897, to its time in Division I-AA and now as a team that has played in a Bowl Championship Series game.
