1 Seminoles Florida State Men s Golf Media Guide

2 A TRIP OF A LIFETIME Scotland We were like kids in a candy store. Each golf course would have been memorable in its own right but when you play five of the world s top 30 course in eight days its hard to explain what kind of experience this provided for each of us. This was truly a lifetime gift that gave our current players a lifetime of memories and is a trip that every Seminole golfer can look forward to during their Florida State career. Trey Jones The Florida State men s golf team enjoyed the trip of a lifetime as five members of the team played nine of the world s most historic golf courses including Royal Turnbury and the St.Andrew s Old and New Courses in August of Trey Jones, Florida State s firstyear head coach, made the trip with senior Tim Vickers, juniors Matt Adcock, Rusty Mosley and Mark Sestilio along with sophomore Adam Wallace and assistant coach Mark Donaldson. Carl Domino, a Florida State University alumnus and current member of the State of Florida House of Representatives,endowed the trip as he has many others like it for the Seminole men s and women s golf teams. Florida State Men s Golf Scotland Tour Itinerary Turnberry: Considered to be the finest golfing destination in the world Royal Turnberry: Seven-time host of British Open; Most recently in 1997 Turnbury Portland: Opened in 1924; Hosted qualifying rounds for 1979 European Open Carnoustie: Six-time host of British Open; Most recently in 1999 St. Andrew s Old: Will host the British Open in 2005; Has hosted the event 26 times St. Andrew s New: Opened in 1895; Built in response to demand for golf at St Andrew s Muirfield: Opened in 1891; First course designed in two loops of nine holes Gullane: First report of golf played on site was 1650 North Berwick: 13th oldest golf club in world; Founded in 1832 It was a trip of a lifetime and a one-time experience. Unless I m playing in the British Open, I don t think I ll have the chance to play those courses again. As you approach the first tee at St. Andrews, you know how much history there is but you can t help be more excited than you have ever been on the golf course. It was definitely the experience of a lifetime. Junior Mark Sestilio

4 F S U M E N S G O L F M E D I A G U I D E O U T L O O K FLORIDA STATE MEN S GOLF TEAM Welcomes A New Coach AND RETURNS FIVE STARTERS IN 2004 Trey Jones,in his first season as the head coach at Florida State, enters the season looking to return the golfing spark to the Seminole program. His first Seminole team returns all five starters from a squad that earned five top 10 finishes, tied for an eighth-place finish at the Florida State hosted Seminole Intercollegiate and had three golfers finish the spring 2003 season with a stroke average of or better. Florida State s starting lineup includes four upperclassmen with extensive collegiate playing experience and a sophomore who played in eight matches during his freshman season. During their collegiate careers, the Seminoles five returning starters have played in a cumulative total of 59 matches and have all carded multiple rounds of 70 or below. With a new coach who took his previous teams at Georgia State to three of the last four NCAA Championships and talented returning players who have competed in a number of the nation s top tournaments,the Seminoles will work to become more competitive both in the Atlantic Coast Conference and nationally. Florida State s immediate goal of becoming competitive in the ACC will no doubt raise its stature nationally with three of the nation s top 11 teams and the defending national champion all calling the ACC its home. When you become competitive in the ACC you are then automatically competitive nationally, said Jones. Our schedule will allow us to constantly measure our progress and improvement. The returning members of Florida State s starting lineup (Matt Adcock, Rusty Mosley, Mark Sestilio,Tim Vickers and Adam Wallace) all played in at least five matches during the 2003 spring season and together displayed the ability and promise to form a competitive starting five. Jones will count on the continued strong play of all five players with Mosley and Adcock standing out as the Seminoles top returning players. Mosley and Adcock played in nine tournaments each while shooting a combined 16 rounds of par or better,34 rounds with scores of 75 or better and averaging fewer than strokes per round. Both players will have to emerge as team leaders and continue to improve on their stroke averages for the Seminoles to climb into the national rankings. Mosley, a junior, led the Seminoles with a career-low average last year and played in nine of 12 tournaments as he re-solidified his position in the starting lineup.a regular starter as a freshman, Mosley redshirted in 2002 to work on his mechanics and has benefited tremendously from that season away from competition. Rusty is a talented ball striker and an outstanding putter, said Jones. The key for Rusty will be for him to learn to hit different types of shots in competition and to trust his natural ability to execute under pressure. Adcock, Florida State s most surprising player in 2003, became a team leader and led the Seminoles in stroke average (74.40) during the 2003 spring season. He earned five consecutive top 30 finishes to close out the season and was the only Seminole to play in all seven events during the spring. With continued improvement and added confidence, Adcock will cement his position as a team leader and has the potential to become a top-tier golfer in the ACC. Matt has solid fundamentals and knows how to play the game, said Jones. His composure allows him to be very consistent.if Matt can get a win he will not look back.he is quiet by nature and well respected among his teammates. Jones is also excited about the play of Sestilio,Vickers and Wallace who all improved tremendously last season and must continue that improvement for Florida State to make a run at postseason play. Sestilio proved to be Florida State s most improved golfer in 2003 as he earned playing time for the first time in his collegiate career. He became a regular in the Seminoles lineup as he played in a season-high five events last spring. A former walk-on, Sestilio displayed his ability to be a successful collegiate golfer as he won several team qualifying events last year after not participating in a single event during his first two years in Tallahassee. When you look at Mark s record,you can see just how far 2

5 F S U M E N S G O L F M E D I A G U I D E he has come in the last two years, said Jones. Mark has improved his club speed from last season and now needs to develop consistency.he is very eager to learn the game and that is very important to him. Vickers, a transfer from Tennessee-Chattanooga, also displayed his ability and desire to compete at the highest levels of collegiate golf last season. One of two seniors on the roster, Vickers needs to become a leader both on and off the course in order for the Seminoles to earn success in 2004.Vickers earned his way into Florida State s starting lineup during the spring 2003 season and played in six of seven events during the season. As a junior,vickers ranked fourth on the team with a career-low stroke average. His season-low single-round score of 71 came during the second round of the Billy Hitchcock Intercollegiate.Vickers 71 was tied for the fifth-best single-round score of the season for the Seminoles. Tim has the swing mechanics to be a very consistent player for us this season, said Jones. He works hard and is completely dedicated to his golf game.it would not surprise me to see Tim earn our most improved player award at the end of the season. Wallace, the Seminoles longest hitter and most powerful player, was a regular in the Seminoles starting lineup during his first collegiate spring as he competed in six of seven tournaments. He finished as the third-highest ranking Seminole in the conference championship and closed his first season with consecutive top 40 finishes a tie for 37th place at the Cleveland Golf Collegiate and a tie for 36th finish at the ACC Championship. Adam s strength is in his length, said Jones. When he putts well he is capable of playing difficult golf courses very well. His personality keeps the team loose while he remains intense. Brad Lusenhop, a senior in his fifth year as a member of the Florida State men s golf team, enters his final year looking to reclaim his spot as a member of the Seminoles O U T L O O K Seminoles starting lineup during the spring of 2000, fall of 2001 and spring of 2002 seasons.his ability to begin the season strong and stay injury free will be a key to his and the team s success in This is Brad s senior season and how he starts the season will be very important to him, said Jones. He is a big,strong player who is looking for confidence. Brad has the physical tools to be a solid part of our lineup throughout the season. Junior Alan Beers will also look to rejoin the Seminoles lineup after appearing in only four tournaments (all during the fall season) in 2003.His ability to be successful at Florida State is unquestioned after he appeared in 11 of 12 tournaments and helped the Seminoles to three top 10 finishes in Each time a coach takes over a program a new player tends to work his way up the depth chart quickly, said Jones. I believe Alan can be that player. Gonzalo Ibarraran, in his third season as a member of When you become competitive in the ACC you are then automatically competitive nationally. Trey Jones,Head Coach From left to right: Matt Adcock was one of the Seminoles most consistent players during the spring and fall seasons. Mark Sestilio is one of the most rapidly improving Seminole players heading into the season. Adam Wallace earned playing time as a freshman and will help the Seminoles as a sophomore. Tim Vickers, one of two seniors on the Seminoles' roster, is looking forward to a solid season. starting lineup. He is the most experienced member of the team with 25 tournaments and three varsity letters on his collegiate resume but was slowed by injuries last season. Lusenhop, who was named to the Cleveland Golf All-American Scholar team in 2003, was a member of the the program, is one of the most natural and talented of the eight golfers on Florida State s roster. He earned his way into the Seminoles starting lineup for the first time during his Seminole career and participated in three events during the fall 2002 season. With more dedication to improving his skills in practice, Ibarraran s best collegiate golf is certainly ahead of him. Gonzalo is a talented golfer in all aspects of hitting shots, said Jones. He is no different from any young player in the fact that when his maturity and focus improve, so will his golf game. Florida State annually plays one of the toughest schedules in all of collegiate golf.that will not change under Jones who will continue to make a strong schedule one of the staples of his teams at Florida State. I have watched most of these players compete over the last two years, said Jones. I was able to get to know them better during our trip to Scotland during the summer.the past years have tested their resilience and they are all eager to achieve team success. Success and confidence are closely related.you will see us improve as the year goes on. 3

F S U M E N S G O L F M E D I A G U I D E T H I S I S T A L L A H A S S E E This Is Tallahassee Among low, rolling hills, down moss-draped canopy roads, within picturesque historical districts and across seas of flowering azaleas lies a magical part of the Sunshine State- Tallahassee, Florida s capital city.with its intriguing combination of power-play politics and classic character splashed with a twist of Southern beauty and charm,tallahassee is a side of Florida few expect to find. With the Gulf of Mexico just 25 miles south and the Georgia border only 14 miles north,tallahassee rests between the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains and the juncture of Florida s panhandle and peninsula in an area known as The Big Bend. Nearer in miles to Atlanta than to Miami, Tallahassee more closely resembles its Georgia neighbor than Florida in topography, climate and lifestyle. Like the city itself, the story of how Tallahassee was chosen as the state capital is rich in history.in 1823, two explorers set out one on horseback from St.Augustine and the other by boat from Pensacola to establish a permanent, central location for the seat of government.the two met at a beautiful site that the Creek and Seminole Indians called tallahassee derived from the words talwa, meaning town, and ahassee, meaning old.this historic meeting place remains Florida s capital today. Boasting more than 145 properties listed on the National Register of Historic Places,Tallahassee is a living showcase of Florida history and heritage.the crowning jewel of Florida s historic Capitol Hill is the Old Capitol, beautifully restored to its 1902 splendor complete with the red-and-white striped awnings, a dome adorned with stained glass, antique furnishings and political memorabilia.the 22nd-floor observatory of the New Capitol Building offers a breathtaking view of this surprising Southern city, awash in flowering azaleas, snowy dogwoods, towering pines, fragrant magnolias and hundreds of lakes, springs, swamps, rivers and sink holes.

Our program operates on a proactive rather than reactive approach. Our academic staff does not wait for crises to occur.we gather important background information on each entering student-athlete, build an academic profile and develop individualized support programs which are tailored to the unique needs of each student-athlete.we also stay informed on the daily progress of the student-athletes through consistent communication with our faculty. The academic support unit is housed in the $126 million dollar, state-of-the-art University Center Complex. It includes private study carrels, a tutorial study area and a computer lab outfitted with 20 IBM compatible computers and laser jet printers.

42 F S U M E N S G O L F M E D I A G U I D E P L A Y E R S THE SEMINOLES MEN S GOLF New Coach Trey Jones Q&A State University is to instill confidence in our players and What is your first plan of action with the men s golf team here at Florida State? The first thing I want to do as the head coach at Florida help them get to a point where they believe they can all be competitive against every team we face this year.as a coach, I need to bring them to a place where they know they can compete mentally against any player on any course.we are in a very unique situation at Florida State.We have the facilities and the resources to be a nationally competitive team in the near future. Right now, we have to make our players believe in themselves and believe we can be among the best teams in the nation sooner, rather than later. Do you have a roadmap or plan for success as the head coach of the men s golf team at Florida State? Our plan for becoming more successful and more competitive is simple hard work.we are not going to catch the teams we need to catch by running at the same pace we have been.we need to continue to work harder than all of our competition in order to catch up to them. There are a lot of teams who are running ahead of us and my goal is to work hard enough through recruiting, practicing, scheduling and being successful on the golf Trey Jones is in his first year as the head coach and director of golf at Florida State. course to catch them as quickly as possible. Once we are able to draw even with the best teams in the ACC and the nation, then we will be able to compete with them each time we play.from there,we will continue to work as hard as possible,pull ahead of them, and work even harder to stay ahead of them. What do you see as being your biggest opportunity as the head coach at Florida State? Being the golf coach at Florida State is an opportunity in itself.the chances we have to be able to utilize the natural resources afforded to a golfer in this area of the country are truly amazing.the weather is a natural ally and that s obvious. We have to utilize the fact that the average temperature in Tallahassee is nearly 70 degrees on a year-round basis.we also have to utilize the amazing resources the university has given us in order to be successful.the Dave Middleton Golf and Practice Center is a place where we can feel comfortable and that is a place we can call home.it is also a tremendous teaching facility that allows our players to receive instruction in all phases of their game only two miles from campus.with hard intelligent work it would be tough for a golfer not to improve on an almost daily basis at Florida State. How will the state-of-the-art facilities at Florida State help to improve the men s golf team? Our practice facility is one that can hold the attention of all of our players and help them become better players every day.it is a facility that offers each golfer and each skill level a wide variety of instructional tools that will benefit all of our players. Our players can work on their game from three different tee angles in the practice facility or utilize exciting new video technology in the teaching center to become better players. Our training center is one of the best in the nation and is another aspect of our program that puts us among the elite teams in the country in terms of facilities. Looking at the schedule, which is going to be your toughest tournament this year and why? We look at our schedule as being one of the toughest in the country but, at the same time, we look at it as one that can help us reach our goal of playing in the postseason in the near future.we have an opportunity to play the best teams in the nation each week during our fall and spring seasons.at the end of each year, our schedule will rank among the toughest in the nation in terms of strength of schedule.the Mercedes-Benz Collegiate Championship in Jacksonville, the Atlanta Intercollegiate and the ACC Championship are just three of the nation s top tournaments that we will be competitive in during the coming years.so when we talk in terms of tough tournaments, we feel that all of our tournaments will put our players in position to be successful because of the different designs and layouts we play and practice on. 40
