6 USC Outlook First-year USC Coach Chris Zambri was honored to return to his alma mater to begin his collegiate coaching career. The talented team he inherited was just a bonus. A strong senior class, skilled veterans and a talented freshman group eased Zambri s transition back into the college game, where the USC men s golf team will challenge for its first national championship. The team is coming off of a season in which it made its 36th straight trip to the NCAA Championships. The Trojans, after placing fourth in the 2006 Pac-10 Championships, finished 15th in the NCAA Central Regional, missing the cut for the 2007 NCAA final. USC was tied for ninth with a day to go, in position to move on, but fell short on the final day. Taylor Wood qualified for the NCAA Championships as an individual after finishing tied for second. A major key to the 2006 season was the departed senior class of Wood, Tyler Ley and Bradley Shaw. Wood earned his second straight All-American nod after tying for 27th at the NCAA Championships, representing USC as an individual. Ley was USC s highest finisher at the Pac-10 Championships, tying for fourth en route to All-Pac-10 honorable mention honors. Shaw had a pair of top 10 finishes in 2006 as well. Now that 2007 seniors Joshua Wooding and Jordan Nasser are the elder statesmen of the team, they hope to take this year s squad a step or two beyond last season. Wooding had USC s second- lowest stroke average (73.18) as a 2006 junior and posted five top 20 finishes. His best finish was a second place in Troy s season-opening Inverness Intercollegiate. At the NCAA Championships East Regional, he was USC s second highest finisher and earned All-Pac-10 honorable mentions honors. Nasser, too, earned All-Pac-10 honorable mention honors and had a pair of top 20 finishes as a 2006 junior. He finished a season-best tied for 10th at the Pac-10 Championships and led USC at the Isleworth-UCF Collegiate Invitational with a tie for 18th. In summer action, Nasser won the prestigious California Amateur Championship. Ben Miller rounds out USC s senior class. The hard-working and good-spirited senior did not see action as a junior, but still contributed valuably in daily practices. Sophomores Tom Glissmeyer, Ryan Linton and Lee Harris are now seasoned veterans with a year of collegiate golf under their belts. Glissmeyer competed in five events as a 2006 freshman. He had his strongest showing at the Pac-10 Championships, tying for 31st while posting a season-low 71 and a pair of 73s. He was also 35th at the U.S. Intercollegiate at Stanford. Linton played in four tournaments as a 2006 freshman, his campaign highlighted by a tie for 16th (as an individual) at the Ashworth Invitational. His final-round 70 there was his season low. Harris, rounding out the sophomore class, saw his only 2006 action in the Ashworth Invitational, where he took 78th. Zambri and USC Director of Golf Kurt Schuette welcomed the top-ranked freshman class in the nation in , which included Jamie Lovemark, Rory Hie, Bo DeHuff and Tyler Smith. Lovemark, before enrolling in USC, made the cut in the 2006 Western Open on the PGA Tour. He earned the invitation after winning the prestigious Western Amateur before his senior year in August of 2005, becoming the youngest winner in the 100-year-plus history of the event. He was a twotime AJGA All-American in 2004 and 2005 and was a two-time member of the Canon Cup West Team. He was ranked among the top 10 junior golfers in the country before entering USC. Hie earned All-American first team honors in 2004 and A consistent force on the AJGA Tour and a two-time AJGA winner, he was a twotime member of the Canon Cup West Team in 2004 and In the 2005 summer, he had seven top 10 finishes in eight events (five of which were in the top five) on the AJGA circuit and was a quarterfinalist in the United States Public Links Championship. DeHuff earned AJGA All-American honorable mention honors as a 2005 junior. He won the AJGA Lockton Kansas City Junior and had three additional top 25 finishes on the circuit in Smith was an-league first team selection during each year in high school and had two top 10 finishes on the AJGA circuit and participated in the 2004 United States Amateur at the famed Winged Foot G.C. by virtue of winning the sectional qualifying at Round Hill C.C. in Greenwich, Conn.

8 Kurt Schuette USC Director of golf 13TH season 2001 Pac-10 Coach of the Year Winner of Three Pac-10 Championships 16-time NCAA qualifier (12 NCAA finals with teams or individuals) The season is Kurt Schuette s 13th season at USC. He began his career at USC as the men s team head coach and was quickly promoted to Director of Golf to oversee the men s and women s teams. It is with great ambition and purpose that Schuette took the new position. From the beginning, his goal has been for Trojan Golf to be the program by which all others are measured. Each year both teams have steadily made progress towards this goal. Last season, Taylor Wood represented the Trojans at the 2006 NCAA Championships when he finished tied for 27th while competing individually. USC's appearance in the NCAA East Regional marked the 17th straight NCAA postseason appearance for the program. In 2005, USC made it to the NCAA Championships for the third straight season. Its sixth-place finish that year was the Trojans' best since taking fifth in In 2002, USC won its first back-to-back conference championships since It was yet another milestone in the re-establishment of USC as a national golf power. The Trojans have been moving up from the moment Schuette came to USC in That year, Schuette directed the USC men s golf team well beyond expectations, all the way to a fifth-place finish at the 1995 NCAA Championships, and he earned District VIII Coach of the Year honors (Pac-10, Big West and WCC). It was USC s highest national finish in 20 years and the eight strokes that separated USC from the championship matched the closest Troy has ever been to the national title. Then in , he led the Trojan men s team to its second consecutive Top 10 finish with a ninth-place showing at the NCAAs. And under his guidance, Brian Hull earned first-team All-American honors. Schuette was also honored by being selected to serve on the NCAA District VIII Advisory Committee. In , Schuette kept the Trojans ranked between No. 3 and No. 7 all year with three All-Americans in the lineup and eventually finished 14th at the NCAAs. After graduating six players, his young men s teams didn't qualify for the NCAA Finals in or (though Jorge Corral did qualify as an individual in '99), but they rebounded nicely in , finishing fourth at the NCAA West Regional to qualify for the NCAA Finals at Opelika, Ala. Although they missed the cut at that tourney, the Trojans showed the mettle necessary to compete at the highest levels of collegiate golf. In 2001 and 2002, Schuette led the Trojans to consecutive Pac-10 titles, while helping coach PAGE University of Southern California Kurt and Glenna Schuette with their son Kyle (7) reside in Mar Vista. Hunter Mahan--the 2001 Pac-10 Freshman of the Year--and Kevin Stadler--the 2002 Pac-10 Golfer of the Year--to All-American honors. Schuette was elevated to Director of Golf at USC in Under his direction and the hard work of outstanding women's coach Andrea Gaston, the USC women's golf program has also blossomed into one of the top programs in the country. In the last seven years, USC has won a team NCAA title, three individual titles and had four other top seven finishes. In 2003, the Women of Troy had a magical season, winning the first-ever NCAA team golf title at USC. Senior Mikaela Parmlid won the NCAA individual title, while freshman Irene Cho was an honorable mention All-American selection. The Women of Troy finished seventh at the NCAA Championships, but the highlight of the season was freshman Jennifer Rosales, who won USC s first-ever women s NCAA individual title in only her sixth collegiate tournament. In , the Women of Troy won the NCAA West Regional, then finished seventh at the NCAA Finals. Rosales placed fourth and was named Collegiate Player of the Year. In , the Women of Troy finished fourth at the NCAAs and were led by All-American and Pac-10 Champion Candie Kung, a freshman, who set a USC women's golf record for lowest stroke average in a season (72.6). In , the USC women finished seventh again as Kung made All-American for the second season. In , the Women of Troy placed 14th at the NCAAs and both Mikaela Parmlid and Becky Lucidi were named to All-American teams. In back to back summers, Kung won the U.S. Pub Links and Lucidi won the U.S. Amateur Championship. Schuette has laid a great foundation for Trojan Golf. However, he views it as just that -- a foundation. Schuette feels that the opportunities for Trojan Golf are limitless, and that both the men s and women s programs will continue to grow stronger every year. In a new annual ranking, Golf Digest ranked the USC women s golf team 3rd and the men s golf team 5th in their balanced ranking, which accounted for strength of both the academic program and the golf program. Furthermore, USC ranked No. 1 among private universities in the balanced category for men and No. 2 for women. The Trojans have created a standard of excellence both on the golf course and in the classroom.

9 By maintaining an environment that fosters learning and development for team members and coaches, Trojan Golf will become the program by which all others are measured. The growth of Trojan Golf during the Kurt Schuette era: Established cornerstone coaching standards for Trojan Golf:..* The best interests of our team and our student-athletes are considered first and foremost...* Create a competitive and fun environment in practice and with a national tournament schedule...* Create a culture of learning that is comprehensive in nature and to develop student-athletes into confident decision makers which will allow them to ambitiously pursue their dreams and career objectives. * Create a gameplan to achieve short and long-term goals. Evaluate progress, make necessary adjustments, be persistent with core values and beliefs. * Use experiences to challenge, learn and grow as a person and as a competitor. Be prepared mentally and physically to deal with all challenges. * Operate as a family and team, being respectful, yet determined and steadfast in our goals. * Play a smart, aggressive brand of golf, tailored to each player's individual strengths and work to minimize challenges. * See obstacles as an opportunity to build and improve. There is no challenge too great to conquer when you approach it intelligently and with the right perspective. Created an on campus practice green, bunker and chipping area for exclusive use by golf team members Secured sponsorships which enabled Trojan Golf to purchase memberships for team members at Riviera Country Club and Wilshire Country Club, two of Los Angeles finest private golf clubs Started the Trojan Golf Club (Booster Club) Organizes an annual fundraiser, the Trojan Golf Classic Developed the Coaches Council, which raises $240,000 annually. Schuette has raised more than $9 million during his tenure at USC. Facilitated the growth of the Trojan Golf Fantasy, a tournament in which donors get an opportunity to play with current team members and former USC Golf Team Members who are now competing on LPGA, PGA, and Champions Tours. This event is also fantastic for team members in that they get a tremendous opportunity to talk with and ask questions of the golf professionals. We are very serious about elevating both our programs to a championship level, Schuette said. Our goal here is to succeed at whatever we do. We are striving to continue to win Pac-10 titles and our first men's team NCAA Championship. We are also proud to say we have recently had success with former players earning both PGA and LPGA Tour cards. All this is part of our mission to become the program by which all others are measured. Our philosophy is to develop smart, aggressive competitors who are confident, independent decision makers. Schuette, 45, came to USC after six successful seasons ( ) at Pepperdine. During his tenure in Malibu, he led the Waves to four WCC crowns and was the 1993 WCC Coach of the Year and Pepperdine athletic department Coach of the Year. His teams were ranked as high as 16th in the nation and the 1993 team participated USC Under Kurt Schuette At a Glance In his career, Schuette has coached or recruited: 18 Division I All-Americans 29 All-Pacific-10 Conference selections 32 Division I tournament medalists The 2002 Pac-10 Freshman of the Year, Ben Hayes The 2007 Pac-10 Freshman of the Year, Jamie Lovemark The 2002 Pac-10 Golfer of the Year, Kevin Stadler, who was also a 2002 All-American second-teamer The 2007 Pac-10 Co-Golfer of the Year, Jamie Lovemark The 2001 Pac-10 Freshman of the Year, Hunter Mahan, who was also a 2001 All-American second-teamer, the 2000 AJGA Player of the Year and the 1999 U.S. Junior Champion His men's teams have won: 28 Division I team tournament titles Three Pac-10 team titles (2001, 2002, 2007) Four West Coast Conference team titles His former players include: One PGA Tour two-time winner Five PGA Tour Players Three Nike or Nationwide Tour winners Nine Nike, Buy.com or Nationwide Tour players Numerous State Amateur and Open winners The 2002 Western Amateur co-medalist, Kevin Stadler The 1997 U.S. Amateur medalist, Roger Tambellini 2003 Western Amateur Champion Chris Botsford 2005 Western Amateur Champion Jamie Lovemark 2003 U.S. Amateur Semi-Finalist David Oh in the school s first-ever NCAA Golf Championship.

In 1994, he was hired as USC head coach and he quickly built the program into not only the top team in Southern California, but a national contender. One of the greatest benefits of USC is that the relationship with the players goes far beyond their years at USC. Schuette has graduated the lion's share (over 90%) of his athletes, including one Valedictorian at Pepperdine and he wants to see his players succeed at whatever career path they choose. He is proud to have former players who have chosen to pursue successful careers as doctors, lawyers, authors, coaches, stock brokers, bankers, professional golfers and even an intelligence agent. Schuette attended Santa Barbara City College, where he rapidly progressed, earning All-Western State Conference honors. He earned a scholarship to Pepperdine, serving as captain in 1984 and Schuette was an All-West Coast Conference selection in 1985 and graduated in 1986 with a bachelor s degree in communications and marketing.
