Returning a wealth of experience from last year’s team that finished the best campaign in school history, the Univer-sity of Iowa women’s soccer team has a reason for optimism heading into the 2012 season. The Hawkeyes return 16 letterwinners and 10 players with starting experience from last year’s team that finished 13-4-3 and set or tied nine school records. Head coach Ron Rainey, who enters his seventh sea-son at the helm, has the Iowa program looking up after it’s stellar 2011 season. The Hawkeyes have advanced to three Big Ten Tournaments in the past five years under Rainey. Before that mark, Iowa had been to just three in the past 10 seasons. Despite the recent success, Rainey had his team take a fresh start, and is keeping his players looking forward. “As far as we are concerned, all our success did last year was fire up other teams and show it takes a big effort to beat us, said Rainey, who has 53 career victories at Iowa. “We’ve been focusing on what’s in front of us, and I’ve been reminding the team that they just have to work that much harder to replicate and surpass (last year’s marks).” The Hawkeyes will be carrying momentum into the 2012 season after last year’s success. Iowa had the best winning percentage (.737), most home wins (8), fewest defeates (3), longest win streak (9), lon-gest unbeaten streak (12), fewest goals allowed (17), and best goals against average (.85) in program history in 2011. “We’re excited about what we did last season, but at the same time, we’ve put that in the past and have been keep-ing our focus on our first game,” Rainey said. “Our only goal is to get better every day, and I’m excited to see how this team responds to that challenge.” Despite the team consisting of 16 underclassmen and just eight upperclassmen, the Hawkeyes return a solid core of experienced players from 2011. No position will be more experienced than the back line, as Iowa returns three starters from last year’s best de-fense in program history. Junior Katherine Lewis and sophomore Melanie Pick-ert started every game as defenders last season, while sopho-more Caitlin Brown started all but one. The trio of defenders led Iowa to nine shutouts, and gave up just 17 goals all season long, which was tied for the best mark in the Big Ten. Iowa’s goals against average was also ranked first in the Big Ten. Redshirt freshman Jordan Rakas, freshman Macken-

zie Guindon, senior Jade Grimm, sophomore Marissa Hurt and sophomore Katie Nasenbenny are also in the mix to take a start-ing defender position - which was left by second team All-Big Ten Morgan Showalter. “I think our defense will be the strength of the team with our three returning starters and the player that replaces Morgan Showalter,” Rainey said. “That’s a group we have a lot of confi-dence with.” Iowa’s defensive picture is a little less clear at the goal-keeper position, where the starting job is still in the balance. Sophomore Kiley Beck, a native of Rockford, Ill., saw ac-tion between the posts last season in two games. She recorded four saves, one goal and had a 2.26 goals against average. Beck will be in competition against two freshmen; Han-nah Clark of Fort Collins, Colo., and Meg Goodson of Waukee, Iowa. Clark had a variety of success at the club soccer level af-ter choosing to play club soccer exclusively her junior year. Mean-while, Goodson set numerous school records at Waukee. Iowa will be looing for one of the three to replace one of their best goalkeepers in program history - Emily Moran. “The position is a wide open battle right now,” Rainey said. ‘We have seen nice things from all three of them this pre-season.” The Hawkeyes will have two proven leaders in the mid-field, with junior Alex Melin and senior Dana Dalrymple back in action. Melin, of Verona, Wis., was named the team’s most valu-able player last season and recorded 13 points on five goals and three assists. Dalrymple also recorded 13 points on five goals and three assists. She is one the team’s most experienced player, and has seen action in 55 games. Sophomore Anne Marie Thomas played in 19 games last season, and will be in the mix for a starting midfield job. If Grimm and Nasenbenny don’t play in the back, they could also round out the rotation. Freshman Brooke Backes, freshman Lana Bonekemper, senior Gabrielle Ainsworth, senior Allie Adam, senior Stefani Campbell and freshman Sarah Mazur will also battle for time. “Dana, Alex and Anne Marie are all back for us, and they are fit and healthy,” Rainey said. “They each will be able to be very dynamic in the midfield for us.” The Hawkeyes will be led at forward by sophomore Cloe

Laccase, who was team’s most valuable offensive player last season as a freshman. Laccase, a native of Sudbury, Ontario, started in all 20 games and recorded 30 points off 12 goals and six assists. She cracked the Hawkeyes record books as a freshman, ranking second in season points and goals, and first in shots on goal. Rainey has also liked what he has seen out of junior Ashley Catrell in preseason. Catrell played in 10 games last season, and has five career goals. Sophomore Nicole Urban, a returning letterwinner, could also be in the mix, as well as players that don’t end up starting at midfield. “It’s good to have that depth at forward, and I think we have a lot of capable play-ers,” Rainey said. “The key will be for them get in and create a lot of chances, and get us in rhythm.” Iowa will have to replace last year’s seniors in Morgan Showalter, Emily Moran, Gabrielle Tinner, Alyssa Cosnek, Sarah Langlas and Rachel Blakesly. The Hawkeyes will play 20 games this fall, including 10 at the Iowa Soccer Com-plex. Iowa will meet two teams that were ranked in the NSCAA/Continental Tire Wom-en’s Poll, and five teams that advanced to last year’s NCAA Tournament. Iowa kicks off the season on Aug. 17, which will begin a three game homestand. The Hawkeyes will also travel to the Black Knight Classic, where they will meet Army and LIU-Brooklyn. Iowa begins Big Ten play on Sept. 16 at Illinois. This year’s Big Ten Tournament will run from Oct. 31-No. 4 and will be hosted by Indiana. “We’re very excited about our schedule this season,” Rainey said. “We will see some teams that advanced to the NCAA’s last season and have a great history. We feel our nonconference schedule will prepare us for the Big Ten season.” Iowa will have two new faces on the sidelines this season, as Rainey announced the hirings of Nick Flohre and Julie Hanley as assistant coaches in the preseason. Flohre will replace Shane Meredith, who left to coach at his alma mater, Earlham. Flohre spent the past five seasons at the Ohio Elite Soccer Academy. Hanley replaces Jaimel Johnson, who joined the University of Texas. Hanley spent the past two seasons as a graduate assistant at Illinois State. “We’re thrilled to have both Nick and Julie on our staff,” said Rainey. “Both of them have a lot of experience and enthusiasm, and will be a great fit in the Hawkeye pro-gram.” The Hawkeyes kicked off two-a-days on Aug. 1, and according to Rainey, have had a very consturctive preseason camp. “The preseason has gone very well for us,” Rainey said. ‘We’ve had some slight strains here and there, but everyone has passed their fitness tests and stayed healthy and fresh.” The Hawkeyes will play 11 matches in the always competitive Big Ten conference. The Big Ten has two ranked squads in Penn State (No. 9) and Illinois (No. 19), and one team receiving votes (Ohio State). “In the Big Ten, if you play really, really well, you can be successful,” said Rainey. “In the same way, if you don’t play your best, anybody can beat you on any given day. It’s a strong and deep conference.”

Ron Rainey enters his seventh season as head coach of the Iowa Hawkeyes after leading Iowa to its best season in school history in 2011.

The Hawkeyes finished 13-4-3 in 2011 and set or tied nine school records under Rainey’s guidance. Iowa went 9-0 in non-conference play and outscored its opponents 35-5 in that stretch. Iowa’s 5-4-2 Big Ten record was its best since 2000. Iowa went on to qualify for the Big Ten Tournament for the sixth time in program history. The Hawkeyes ranked near the top in many major Big Ten

statistical categories and finished fifth in Big Ten standings.

Rainey continued his success at the helm of the women’s soccer team during 2010. The Hawkeyes recorded seven consecutive wins, the longest win streak in program history at the time. The team also notched a win over a nationally ranked Big Ten opponent, Purdue, in the final game of the season.

In 2009, Rainey guided the Hawkeyes to an 8-4 record to start the season, the best start in program history. In addition to a recrod-breaking start, coach Rainey and the Hawkeyes posted seven wins at the Iowa Soccer Complex to tie the highest number of wins at home in a single season.

The Hawkeye team has shown consistent improvement during his previous three seasons as head coach. Before taking over the Hawkeyes, the team had won a total of nine games in season 2003-2005. During Rainey’s first three years the team has won a total of twenty three games. Each season Rainey has been head coach the team has improved its win total from the year before going from six, to eight, to nine wins in 2008.

The Hawkeyes have also advanced to the Big Ten tournament in 2007 and 2008. In the first nine seasons of the Hawkeye program the team had advanced to the Big Ten tournament just three times.

Rainey joined the Hawkeyes from Ball State University before the start of the 2006 season, where he served as the school’s head coach since the program’s inaugural season in 1999. Under his tutelage, the

Cardinals posted a 70-52-17 record in seven seasons.

Ball State showed swift improvement under Rainey’s guidance, and amassed a 62-25-14 record in his last five years. In 2001, he coached the third-year program to a 12-6-2 mark and was named Mid-American Conference Coach of the Year. In 2005, Rainey guided Ball State to a 15-3-2 record and advanced to the Mid-American Conference Tournament for the fifth-consecutive year.

Before starting the program at Ball State, Rainey served as an assistant coach at the University of Iowa for the first two seasons of the Hawkeye program (1997-98). In Iowa’s first year of varsity soccer, Rainey and the Hawkeyes were named the No. 1 first-year program by Soccer Buzz Magazine.

Prior to his stint with Iowa, Rainey was the head women’s coach at Towson State University for one year, where his team was 10-7-2 and won the America East Tournament. He has also served as an assistant coach at the University of Cincinnati (1995-96), and head coach and sports information director at the University of Wisconsin-Parkside (1994-1995), where his first year team finished with a 10-6-2 record. Rainey was also the graduate assistant coach at Trenton State College (1992-94).

Outside the collegiate ranks, Rainey has served as a regional staff coach for the Region II Girls Olympic Development Program every summer since 1994. He received his United States Soccer Federation (USSF) “A” License in 1996 and his “B” License in 1995.

I chose Iowa because it is a program I know I can be proud of and a school I know I can love.

aLLIe adam -senior - omaha, Ne

I chose Iowa because I like the coaching staff and the campus. I am an open major and Iowa is a big school, so I have many study options.

daNa daLrympLe -senior - cincinnati, oh

I chose Iowa because it was close to home. I felt they have a good program and I would be a good fit for it.

gaBrIeLLe aINsworth -senior - coralville, Ia

I chose Iowa because everything fit like a puzzle. At first I just had a bunch of pieces, but when I turned them all in the right direction the picture was IOWA. When I stepped on campus I immediately fell in love. Then meet-ing everyone, from the girls to the coaches and local Iowans, everyone was so nice, which made everything a breeze.

stefaNI campBeLL -senior - alrington, tx

When looking at where I wanted to go on to school, I focused on three priorities. The first was to find a large school that offered an exceptional pre-med education combined with an opportunity to explore the medical field during the undergraduate years. The second was to find an environment that I would like to call home for the next 4-8 years. Coach Ron did an excellent job of helping me understand where the university ended and the city began. Last was to play for a coaching staff that I respected and could relate to. The coaching staff at Iowa was very easy to communi-cate with and having Ron as an assistant coach on the Region II ODP team gave me a chance to really get to know him as a coach and a person.

Jade grImm -senior - cedar rapids, Ia

Iowa is a great school to succeed and further my future. The atmosphere is great and the team is very close.

The Barta family includes Connie, Madison, Gary and Luke.

Now in his seventh year as director of athletics at the University of Iowa and his 26th year in athletic administration, Gary Barta manages an athletics program that continues to gain momentum in two key areas -- on the playing field and in the classroom -- while enhancing the infrastructure that will serve as the foundation for future successes. Academically, the UI’s federal graduation rate of 74 percent (for student-athletes who enrolled in 2004-05) ties the best ever posted by UI athletics. That mark was a 13-point increase over the previous year and was nine points above the national average; UI student-athletes

will establish another record when the latest figures are released in October. Last fall, the NCAA confirmed that all 24 of Iowa’s teams exceeded the Academic Progress Rate (APR) benchmark for the fourth straight year. In figures released last fall, Iowa’s score of 86 percent in the NCAA’s “Graduation Success Rate” or GSR, also matched a school record. Five different women’s teams at the UI posted perfect 100 GSR scores. Iowa’s GSR in football (83), men’s (73) and women’s (100) basketball all ranked above the national average for their respective sports. Athletically, Hawkeye teams enjoyed another outstanding year in 2011-12. A significant number of Iowa’s 24 programs reached postseason play. The Iowa football team reached bowl eligibility for the 11th straight season and competing in a bowl game for the fourth straight year and 10th time in the last 11 seasons. The women’s basketball program participated in the NCAA Tournament for a fifth straight season and men’s basketball returned to postseason competition under second-year coach Fran McCaffery, recording an 84-75 win over Dayton in front of 13,190 re-energized fans in Carver-Hawkeye Arena. The Hawkeye wrestling program, led by national champion Matt McDonough, made another run at a national title before placing third. The men’s golf team placed 22nd nationally in its third appearance in the NCAA Championships in the last four seasons. Additionally, the UI men’s track and field placed 23rd in the nation and the UI’s men’s swimming and diving program placed 26th at its national championship. Iowa’s field hockey team advanced to the NCAA Tournament and the Hawkeye softball team placed second in the Big Ten. Between the men’s and women’s track and field teams, 34 student-athletes competed at the NCAA Championships and 14 members of the UI men’s and women’s swimming and diving teams qualified for the Olympic Trials. And, while the UI athletics department continues to earn high marks in integrity, academic excellence, and athletic performances. Barta also continues to oversee critical

improvements and additions to the facilities used by the UI’s talented student-athletes while maintaining a balanced and ever-growing operations budget that continues to be self-sustaining. In addition to the competitive success the Hawkeyes recorded in 2011-12, the UI once again experienced tremendous success at the turnstiles. Iowa has sold every seat in historic Kinnick Stadium in each of the past two seasons, ranking 21st in national attendance both years. The UI will enter the 2012 home football season with all seven home games sold out once again and boasts waiting lists for not only season tickets, but also the premium seating options available inside the Paul W. Brechler Press Box. Attendance at home games of the UI’s men’s basketball team has climbed more than 30 percent the last two seasons. Iowa’s attendance of 13,190 for a first round NIT game in Carver-Hawkeye Arena ranked as the highest attended game of the 2012 tournament. The UI wrestling team set another national attendance record by averaging 9,014 fans per home meet in 2011-12, leading the nation in attendance for the sixth straight year. The economic impact of the 2012 U.S. Olympic Wrestling Team Trials, hosted by the UI in Carver-Hawkeye Arena, exceeded $5 million, according to survey results released by the Iowa City/Coralville Area Convention and Visitors Bureau. Attendance at home games of the UI’s women’s basketball games also remained strong as the program once again ranked among national leaders in 2011-12. The UI also registered increases in attendance at home volleyball, soccer, field hockey, women’s gymnastics, men’s gymnastics, softball and baseball events. Since 2006, the Hawkeyes have invested more than $150 million in new and renovated athletic facilities. Upgrades include the restoration of historic Kinnick Stadium and Carver-Hawkeye Arena, as well as a new state-of-the-art aquatics center, a boathouse facility for the UI rowing program and an indoor and outdoor tennis complex. Another $60 million worth of improvements are underway in the form of the two phase football training center project and an indoor golf performance facility. In late summer 2011, the UI completed a $47 million revitalization of Carver-Hawkeye Arena. That project included the construction of a practice facility for men’s and women’s basketball and volleyball, a 10,000-square-foot strength training and cardiovascular center, and an expansion to the Dan Gable Wrestling Complex, in addition to new locker room and support facilities for men’s and women’s basketball, wrestling and volleyball programs, and office space for the majority of Iowa administrative and coaching staffs. The Carver project included the installation of a statue of Gable at the facility’s main entrance. That project was completed in time for the thousands of fans of the sport of wrestling to enjoy while attending the 2012 USA Wrestling Olympic Team Trials.Phase I of a two-phase project for the UI football program was completed in August,

2012. Phase I includes the new indoor practice facility for Coach Kirk Ferentz’ program that has competed on 10 bowl games over the past 11 seasons. Phase II includes construction of the new Iowa Football Operations Center, which will include new team locker rooms, team meeting rooms, athletic medical training space, video operations, and coaches offices and meeting rooms. Funded entirely through private support and revenue generated by the UI Athletics Department, the project is an important next phase of the master facilities plan for Hawkeye football. It will be constructed adjacent to the Ron and Margaret Kenyon Outdoor Practice Facility, immediately west of Kinnick Stadium and will be connected to the new indoor practice facility. The 2010-11 season marked the first for the men’s and women’s swimming and diving teams in the UI’s $69 million Campus Recreation and Wellness Center. The Hawkeyes hosted the 2012 Big Ten Championships and the UI men’s squad responded by earning its highest Big Ten finish in 15 seasons. Another of the latest additions to the facilities available to the UI’s student-athletes is the Varsity Golf Complex practice facility for the men’s and women’s golf programs. Located at the southern edge of the UI’s award-winning Finkbine Golf Course, the facility is expected to be completed for use this winter. It will provide the Hawkeyes a state-of-the-art facility that offers the opportunity for year-round training and practice. Barta’s involvement in the UI campus community extends beyond intercollegiate athletics. He is a member of the President’s Cabinet, comprised of vice presidents and other campus leaders, that provide counsel to UI President Sally Mason. That group was instrumental in the UI’s response to record-setting flooding that besieged the campus and the Iowa City and Coralville community in June 2008. Barta also represents the UI and the Hawkeyes at the conference and national level. During his first six years at the UI, he has participated in the creation and implementation of the Big Ten Network, the expansion of the Big Ten Conference and realignment of athletics conferences nationally, and the Big Ten’s postseason bowl game agreements that were successfully implemented in 2010. Nationally, Barta remains active in the Division IA Athletics Directors Association, the National Association of College Directors of Athletics, and currently serves on the NCAA Football Committee Board of Directors. Barta often suggests to his staff that “Hope is not a strategy,” which is why he is currently overseeing a comprehensive review of the strategic plan for the UI Athletics Department and has worked with the UI’s leadership on a long-term financial plan. Another favorite saying of his is, “Vision without resources is irrelevant.” Over the course of his career he has been directly involved in raising hundreds of millions of dollars in support of intercollegiate athletics. This has remained a primary focus during his tenure at Iowa, where private support for the Hawkeyes continues to flourish despite a challenging economy.

Under Barta’s leadership –¬ and thanks to a talented athletics development staff – the UI has seen year-over-year improvement in annual giving in spite of the difficult economic environment. In addition, under Barta’s direction, the UI generated more than $20 million of philanthropic and corporate sponsorship support for the revitalization of Carver-Hawkeye Arena and has already surpassed that level of support for the current football projects. The UI also generated the $2 million in private support necessary to fully fund the Hawkeyes’ new practice facility for its men’s and women’s golf programs.As the director of athletics at the University of Wyoming for three years, seven different UW coaches were named Mountain West Conference Coach of the Year. He also spearheaded a fund-raising effort that netted the Cowboy athletics program $11 million in private support and $11 million in matching state fund. As the senior associate athletics director at the University of Washington, he directed the “Campaign for the Student-Athlete,” was a participant in the design, construction and/or renovation of several UW athletics facilities, including Bank of America Arena and the Dempsey Indoor Practice Facility. In addition to almost doubling the amount of annual private support received by UW, Barta also managed the department’s external relations division, a task that included corporate sponsorship and radio contracts. His responsibilities at Washington expanded over time to include hiring of coaching and administrative staff, and the day-to-day oversight of several Huskie sport teams. The roots of his development experience extend to his first two positions: director of athletics development and external relations at the University of Northern Iowa and director of development at his alma mater, North Dakota State University. Barta earned a Bachelor of Science degree in mass communication and broadcast journalism from NDSU in 1987. He was an option quarterback for Bison football squads that won the Division II NCAA National Championship in 1983, 1985 and 1986. Barta, and his wife, Connie, have a son, Luke (14) and a daughter, Madison (12). He was born Sept. 4, 1963, in Minneapolis.

Iowa coNtINues to BuILd for success

The UI Department of Athletics is under the direction of Gary Barta and is regarded as one of the top intercollegiate programs in the nation. Once again, the Hawkeyes enjoyed success both athletically and academically in 2011-12

Academically, the UI’s federal graduation rate of 74 percent (for student-athletes who enrolled in 2004-05) ties the best ever posted by UI athletics. That mark was a 13-point increase over the previous year and was nine points above the national average; UI student-athletes will establish another record when the latest figures are released in October.

“Iowa City is one of the great college campuses in the country. I love coming to Iowa City!”

mark JoNesespN Broadcaster

coNsIder the commuNIty

Some universities offer the large city atmosphere. Others offer the college town experience. The University of Iowa is uniquely situated to offer student athletes the very best of both of these different worlds.

Once the state capital, Iowa City is considered one of the truly great college towns in America. The city swells with excitement on game day when nearly 16,000 Hawkeye fans from across the state and Midwest converge on Carver-Hawkeye Arena to cheer the Hawkeyes to another victory.

Iowa City’s downtown area is alive and thriving. Restaurants, shops and sidewalk cafes face onto pedestrian malls full of people watchers, street entertainers and food vendors.

Attractive in size and friendliness, Iowa City is big in the sense that it offers all the advantages and conveniences of much larger metropolitan areas like summer and permanent employment opportunities, live entertainment and concerts, fine dining and shopping, industry and commerce.

Iowa City is located in the heart of eastern Iowa, within easy driving distance of several major Midwestern cities including the state capital, Des Moines, as well as Chicago, St. Louis, Kansas City, Minneapolis and Milwaukee.

“Iowa City is unlike any other place in the state, both because of its regional beauty and because of its independent, serendipitous spirit.

There’s nothing like feeling the crisp air as one tours the Big Ten campus, just as there’s no other feeling like walking the shores along Lake MacBride, north of town. This is an ideal location for a weekend trip filled with sights, sounds, shopping and plenty of activities on any given weekend.”

If there is a star in Iowa, Iowa City is it.”

A CAMPUS ON THE MOVE

The University of Iowa campus caters to pedestrians and bicyclists; it’s compact enough to cross in a 20-minute walk. A free ride on a campus bus can cut that time in half. Entertainment on campus and in Iowa City is geared toward student budgets, with many events offered at no charge. The University of Iowa offers more than 400 student organizations, extensive recreation facilities, 50 fraternities and sororities, and a broad schedule of arts performances, lectures, cultural celebrations and club sports and intramural athletic contests to go along with the intercollegiate competition within the Big Ten Conference.

STUDENT-ORIENTED NIGHT LIFE

Iowa’s campus is set right in the city’s downtown area, where you’ll find dance clubs, movies, coffeehouses, and restaurants to suit every taste. Live music can be found any night of the week in clubs and restaurants, even outside on warm evenings on the downtown pedestrian mall. Iowa City businesses are convenient and geared toward student tastes and needs.

When a student-athlete considers his future, he should consider prospects beyond baseball. He should consider where he wants to be five, ten, fifteen years from today, and the best course of action for getting there. Also, he should decide early on to commit to excellence in every challenge undertaken.

Without a doubt, the men and women listed here took time to consider their future and the ways to get there. These former University of Iowa undergraduates have gone on to become leaders in their chosen fields. They also pursued their academic studies as strongly as the Iowa Hawkeyes go after a loose ball or rebound.

“The Gerdin Learning Center gives me the opportunity to be in a great studious atmosphere where I am able to get my academics achieved, along with opportunities to receive help with tutors or study groups.

the hawkeye NIckNameThe University of Iowa borrowed its athletic nickname from the state of Iowa many years ago. The name Hawkeye was originally the name of the hero in the fictional novel, The Last of the Mohicans, written by James Fenimore Cooper. Cooper had the Delaware Indians bestow the name on a white scout who lived with them.

In 1838, 12 years after the book was published, people in the territory of Iowa acquired the nickname, chiefly through the efforts of Judge David Rorer of Burlington and James Edwards of Fort Madison.

Edwards, editor of the Fort Madison Patriot, moved his paper to Burlington in 1843 and renamed it the Burlington Hawkeye. The two men continued their campaign to popularize the name, and territorial officials eventually gave it their formal approval.Herky The Hawkeye

The Hawkeye nickname gained a tangible symbol in 1948 when a cartoon character, later to be named Herky the Hawkeye was hatched. The creator was Richard Spencer III, instructor of journalism at Iowa.

The impish Hawk was an immediate hit and acquired a name through a statewide contest staged by the athletic department. John Franklin, a Belle Plaine alumnus, was the man who suggested Herky.

Since his birth more than 45 years ago, Herky has symbolized Iowa athletics and epitomized University life. He even donned a military uniform during the Korean War and became the insignia of the 124th Fighter Squadron.

During the mid-1950s, Herky came to life at a football game as the Iowa mascot. Since that time, Herky has been a familiar figure at Iowa athletics events.
