4 2 Bears Ready To Tip Off Against Tough Schedule No excuses will be made. That is the kind of mentality head coach Ron Vlasin wants his team to have as the program begins the third year of a four-year transition to Division I. The team had close calls with good Division I teams last year, certainly moral victories for the team, but Vlasin thinks it is time for Northern Colorado to stop accepting defeat. Winning is a state of mind, Vlasin said. If you re in the game, it all boils down to mental toughness. We re not willing to accept losses, and it doesn t matter who it is. The 25-6 season marks the fifth season Vlasin has been at the helm of Northern Colorado women s basketball, and he believes this season s squad could be the best yet. Even with a challenging schedule ahead, the Bears could turn some heads. It will also be the last season for Northern Colorado as an independent as it enters the Big Sky Conference on July 1, 26. I think we ll have the best team I ve had since I ve been here, Vlasin said. We should be more experienced and ready for some top-notch competition. The Bears return 13 players overall; nine of whom are upperclassmen. Last season, there were six different starting lineups, and of the players who are returning, nine got the starting nod. To add to an already solid roster, there are three talented newcomers who Vlasin expects to contribute right away. This season, Northern Colorado will play seven games against teams that competed in last year s NCAA (Louisville and Maryland) or WNIT (Illinois, Marquette, Gonzaga and Texas A&M-Corpus Christi) tournaments. Although the schedule might seem daunting, Vlasin said the team is familiar with Division I athleticism and should be able to compete effectively. I think they have convinced themselves that they can play against those teams, he said. Hopefully we can knock off at least a couple of those teams. Northern Colorado is hoping to be competitive again this season against the likes of Maryland, Louisville, Marquette and Gonzaga. The Bears will square off against Maryland again on Feb. 26 in College Park, Md. The Bears took the nationally-ranked Terrapins down to the wire in last season s showdown as Northern Colorado led with 4:2 remaining in the game before Maryland rallied to an win. Something monumental to the team s success against the high level of competition will be its perimeter shooting. The Bears averaged 29 3-point attempts last season, something Vlasin hopes to continue. At the same time, he is hoping the team will improve its 3-point shooting success by 5 percent, as it shot.296 from downtown last season. Vlasin said the team will consistently have four or five players on the floor at the same time that can shoot from the perimeter. It s hard enough on the other team when there is just one player that can shoot the three, Vlasin said. With four or five players on the floor at the same time who can shoot the three, we should be tough to guard. Although the schedule could prove to be tough, Northern Colorado will benefit from an abundance of depth. That depth will help the Bears most when their eight visiting out-of-state opponents have to endure the Colorado altitude. It will also help that Northern Colorado plays 13 of its games at home, including a seven-game home stand that starting at the end of December. We feel like if we play a great game, we have a shot at beating anybody on our schedule, Vlasin said. We should be more experienced and ready for some topnotch competition. -Head coach Ron Vlasin Backcourt One of the keys to the Bears success this season will be the backcourt s ability to distribute the ball and be consistent with the outside shot. Junior Jena Fosdick proved to be a go-to scorer last year, and the Bears will count on her again this year. Fosdick, who earned honorable mention Division I All-Independent honors last season, scored a career-high 29 points on 1-of-17 shooting at nationally-ranked Maryland and was the second on the team in scoring with 8.2 points per game. Fosdick led the team in 3-pointers made with 47 and showed her defensive talent by finishing tied for the team lead in steals with Season Preview Junior Jena Fosdick was an honorable mention All-Division I Independent last season. Her top performance came against nationally-ranked Maryland, where she scored a career-high 29 points and had seven assists. Freshman newcomer Jabrenta Hubbard will give the returning guards a tough challenge for playing time. Possibly the most prized recruit in Northern Colorado women s basketball history, Hubbard was named first-team and MVP of her conference all four years of her high school career in Las Vegas. As a senior at Green Valley High School, she averaged 2.3 points and 3.5 assists per game. As a junior, she averaged 19.9 points, 4.5 assists and five steals per game. Her success in high school did not go unnoticed as Hubbard was ranked the 38 th best high school player in America by NCAAFullCourt.com in 24. She was also mentioned as a top player in 24 by Street & Smith s. Junior Bailey Dillon is perhaps the best shooter on the team, and the Bears will count on her heavily for consistency in not only the perimeter game, but also at the free throw line. Dillon led the team from the stripe with a.944 free throw percentage, and she tied the Northern Colorado record for consecutive free throws made with 25. She was also perfect from the line in the last two minutes of games. Dillon was a key part of ball rotation as she was third on the team in assists with 52. Another important part of the Bears outside shooting attack is junior Kendra Lambrecht. Last season, Lambrecht was third on the team in scoring with 6.8 points per game and led the team in scoring seven times. She was also second on the team in 3-pointers made with 43. Lambrecht, who was an honorable mention Division I All-Independent selection last season, consistently

5 25-6 Season Preview 3 showed she is a force to be reckoned with from beyond the arc as she hit six 3-pointers on two occasions. Senior Molly McGrath will provide the Bears with the always important element of senior leadership. McGrath started out last season as an afterthought in the Northern Colorado rotation, but she soon played an important role on the team not only coming off the bench, but also as a starter, drawing eight starting assignments. McGrath led the team in assists seven times and also showed her poise against a top-level Division I team in Colorado State when she scored a career-high 11 points in Northern Colorado s close loss to the Rams. Freshman Whitley Cox is another prized recruit with an impressive prep resume that comes out of Las Vegas. Cox played on three state championship teams and led her team to a fourth straight championship game appearance after a 23 point, 14 rebound performance in the semifinal game. As a senior, she averaged 13.5 points and 8.9 rebounds per game while also shooting 6 percent from the field, including 43 percent from 3-point range. Sophomore Amy Martinson will bring a much-needed defensive prowess to the team after seeing limited action last season. Martinson played a seasonhigh 18 minutes against the Denver Pioneers and tied her career-high with four points. Redshirt freshman Candace Buttars will also be able to contribute in the Bears backcourt after redshirting last season. Frontcourt The success of the frontcourt will hinge on its ability to play physical and grab difficult rebounds. We want to hold our own with the bigger teams rebounding-wise, Vlasin said. Last year we had a big rebounding deficit, so if we can stay even keel on that, then I think we have a shot at winning more games. Senior Cindy McCarroll will return to the power forward rotation after finishing second on the team in rebounds (13) and tied for first in steals with 31. McCarroll brings scoring versatility to the three or four spot as she can score inside or outside. She was fifth on the team in points scored last season with 138. McCarroll pitched in 14 points in a win over Utah Valley State last season and also kept the Bears close against Maryland with 14 points in that game. Junior Heather Barbour is expected to have a breakthrough season in the three or four position after undergoing lower leg surgery and being fully healthy for the first time since she started her collegiate career. The Bears are hoping she can return to her form of the 23-4 season when she averaged 11.4 points per game. After playing 15 games before her season-ending injury, Barbour was fifth in points per game with 6.3. Barbour reached double figures in scoring in five games, with a season-high of 17 in the Bears against UTEP. Junior Melanie Drangmeister is expected to add to the offensive firepower in the small forward spot; she was fourth on the team in 3-pointers made last season. Drangmeister sparked a second-half rally in the Bears close loss to Maryland, when she hit four 3-pointers to finish with a season-high 14 points. Freshman Alisa Christopherson, who rounds out the promising newcomers, will be able to contribute right away as a forward. Christopherson was a McDonald s All-American nominee as a senior at Sentinel High School in Missoula, Mont. She also led her team to a third place finish in the state championship tournament during her junior year. The battle for the anchor in the middle is crowded, but junior Danielle Hagen has the inside track to get the starting nod at center. In her two seasons at Northern Colorado, Hagen has been a familiar face in the starting lineup, having started all 55 games of her collegiate career. The Bears don t have a lot of experienced size, so they will be counting on Hagen to lead the team in boards for the third consecutive season; she led the team in rebounds last year with 6.3 per game and the year before with 6. per game. She was named to the Division I Independent All-Tournament Team last season after pitching in with seven points, 11 rebounds and two blocks against IPFW in the first round of the tournament. Junior Nicole Ford made leaps and bounds in the second half of last season after starting out slow. Ford scored a career-high 19 points in the team s win over Adams State last season and then duplicated the performance against Utah Valley State later in the season Ford could University be counted of on Northern as topcolorado Women s Basketball reserve center, but she could also get a few starts in the middle, having started six games last season. Another center to bring in to the mix is sophomore Dani Veal. Although her potential is not yet known (she only played 17 games last season due to volleyball schedule conflicts and a hip injury that sidelined her for 11 games), Veal could prove to be an important post player for a team that is heavily slanted toward the perimeter. Veal had a career-high eight rebounds against Utah State last season and a career-high six points against CU-Colorado Springs. She will not be available until the Dec. 2 contest against Nevada, but once she is ready, Vlasin thinks she could be an important tool to the team s success. Sophomore Breanna Lien is the tallest player on the team at 6-4, which could help against larger Division I teams. Lien saw limited action last season, but did score a career-high eight points in seven minutes of play against Colorado College. Vlasin thinks Lien could become a contributor if she can continue to improve. The Final Thought The Bears went 9-3 in its final 12 games last year and finished as runnerup at the Division I Independent Championships in Orem, Utah. Look for Northern Colorado to carry that momentum and confidence into this season. With two seasons of Division I under their belt, the Bears have gotten used to what it takes to win at the Division I level. With its up-tempo offense, Northern Colorado could be a wild card in Division I this year. The key to its season will be the ability to rebound consistently, play smart defense and be accurate on the 3-point shot. We have gotten to the point where we ve realized that we have to play against the game, Vlasin said. If we play to our strengths and minimize our weaknesses, we have a good shot to turn some heads. Junior Danielle Hagen has been a mainstay in the Bears starting lineup her first two seasons. Hagen is the only current player to start every game of her career with 55 consecutive starts.

6 4 Coaching Staff RON VLASIN HEAD COACH FIFTH SEASON NORTHERN COLORADO, 1967 Ron Vlasin enters his fifth season as the head coach of the University of Northern Colorado women s basketball team in Vlasin led the Bears to a overall record in their first two seasons of Division I basketball and has a overall record at UNC.

Vlasin reached the 6-win plateau in the Bears victory over Texas-Pan American in the semifinals of the tournament. We are going Division I and we are going to go out and play all comers to see where we stand in the transition, Vlasin said about the Bears move from Division II to Division I. We want to compete against the best teams around to see where we fit in with the rest of our competition.

24 Review The 24-5 season was the second year in a four-year reclassification to Division I for Northern Colorado, and it was the team s first full Division I schedule. The year started out slow for the Bears as they started 3-13, but UNC soon went on a tear, finishing 9-3 in its last 12 games. The season s highlights included a road win over WAC opponent UTEP, a down to the wire game against nationallyranked Maryland and a runner-up finish at the Division I Independent Championship Tournament in Orem, Utah. To cap off the season, three Bears (senior Kayla Flavin, sophomore Jena Fosdick and sophomore Kendra Lambrecht) received honorable mention status on the All- Division I Independent team. Flavin, who led the team with 8.5 points per game, scorched the nets in a UNC win over Western State on Feb. 19 as she scored a career-high 31 points. The performance earned her the Division I Independent Player of the Week. Fosdick was second in scoring with 8.2 points per game and also led the team with 48 3-pointers. Fosdick had a breakthrough game on Feb. 28 against Maryland as she scored a career-high 29 points and also had seven assists. She also led the team in assists with 82 and steals with 32 on the season. Lambrecht was the third-highest scorer on the team at 6.8 points per game. She scored in double figures nine different times and scored a season-best 2 points in a Northern Colorado win over Adams State on Jan. 24. The Bears were considered an underdog to the more established Division I UTEP Miners, and the game was in El Paso, Texas. UNC was overmatched in size, but head coach Ron Vlasin made up the difference with speed, quickness and outside shooting from his players. The Bears started the game slow, as they didn t score until five minutes into the game. UNC put pressure on the Miners later in the half and trailed by only four (33-29) at halftime. In the second half, the Bears surged to a lead with 7:14 remaining. Northern Colorado sealed the victory with a few free throws to win It was the first road win for the Bears over an established Division I opponent since turning Division I. Coming into the game against Maryland, Northern Colorado might have been considered a long shot. The Bears trailed the Terrapins in the second half, but sophomore Melanie Drangmeister sank four straight 3-pointers, which led the Bears to a lead with 11:5 left in the game. Later in the half, the game was tied at 72, but Fosdick sunk the last of her six 3-pointers on the night to give the Bears a lead with 4:2 remaining. But down the stretch the Terps went on a run and won the game Fosdick was 1-of-17 from the field and 6-of-9 from 3-point range in the contest. After the close call with Maryland, Northern Colorado took on IPFW in the first round of the Division I Independent Tournament. The Bears got out of the gates slow, but they recovered and took a lead at halftime. Early in the second half, UNC extended its lead to 15, but the Mastodons charged back and pulled to within six. Fosdick answered right back with a 3-pointer and extended Northern Colorado s lead to IPFW still refused to give up as it cut the UNC lead to with just 1:2 left on the clock. The Bears were able to capitalize on a Mastodons foul and sophomore Bailey Dillon made both free throws, which clinched the Bears victory. The win was Northern Colorado s third straight over IPFW. Freshman Kirsten Van Orden led the Bears in scoring with a career-high 14 points. In the next round of the tournament, the Bears collided with the Texas-Pan American Lady Broncs. UNC trailed at the half, but soon rallied in the second half to pull to within one point at with 16:2 left in the second half. Junior Molly McGrath drained a shot from downtown to give Northern Colorado its first lead at with 9:13 remaining. A pair of lay-ups from Van Orden and sophomore Nicole Ford later in the half helped push the UNC lead to seven at the 5:41 mark. The Lady Broncs bucked back and went on a 5- run to cut the Bears lead to Ford then hit a turnaround jumper to up Northern Colorado s lead by four. But UTPA sank a 3-pointer to pull to within one point at with 1:14 left in the game. Free throws from Dillon and junior Cindy McCarroll sealed the win for the Bears, and UNC moved on to face the Texas A&M-Corpus Christi Islanders in the championship game.

54 52 All-Time CoSIDA Academic All-Americans Champions On and Off the Field Created in 1952 by the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA), the Academic All-America Teams Program is the premier, nationwide college scholar-athlete awards program. It recognizes 816 outstanding student-athletes annually as Academic All- District selections in Division I, II, III and NAIA covering all NCAA championship sports. Being named an Academic All-America happens only one way - excellence on the playing field and in the classroom. To be named an Academic All-America, a student-athlete must have at least a 3.2 cumulative grade point average, be a starter or key reserve on their team and earn first-team all-district honors before advancing onto the national ballot. The Bears had four athletes earn AAA honors at the Division I level in Senior volleyball player Erin Deffenbaugh earned first-team honors, becoming the first-ever UNC athlete selected to the first-team at the Division I (university) level. Northern Colorado selections from 198 through 23 were at the college (Division II & below) level. The program was formerly known as the GTE or Verizon Academic All-American Program but changed its name to ESPN The Magazine Academic All-America program in 24. Since 1967, Northern Colorado has had 46 student-athletes earn Academic All-America honors 51 times.

57 Student-Athlete Services 55 The University of Northern Colorado athletic program strives to provide personalized services for all its student-athletes. UNC coaches, administrators and staff are committed to seeing that the needs of student-athletes come first. The following information will help incoming student-athletes make the most of their collegiate experience. NCAA Initial-Eligibility Clearinghouse Students who are planning to enroll in a college as a freshman and participate in Division I athletics must be certified by the NCAA Initial-Eligibility Clearinghouse. The Clearinghouse ensures consistent interpretation of NCAA initial-eligibility requirements for all prospective student-athletes. A student who wants to participate in Division I athletics should plan to start the certification process early - usually at the end of his or her junior year in high school. Eligibility requirements and information can be obtained by logging onto the Clearinghouse s official website: Registration materials and information regarding core courses may be obtained from high school guidance counselors. Student-Athlete Advisory Council (SAAC) The Student-Athlete Advisory Council (SAAC) is made up of student-athletes from each intercollegiate athletic team at UNC. The council provides a forum for student-athletes within the Athletics Department and creates a vehicle for soliciting input on issues of concern to all student-athletes. Student-athletes study and do homework in the Academic Success Center. Each year the council encourages the involvement of studentathletes in campus and community projects. The council also reviews and provides input to the athletic administration regarding proposed NCAA legislation. Student-athletes can take issues of concern to their representatives on the council. In addition, council members disseminate information to their teammates and gather input from teammates regarding issues brought to the council by the athletic administration. Academic Advising The UNC Athletics Department provides support services to assist all student-athletes in the area of academics. An Academic Success Center staff member will help student-athletes find tutors, build class schedules, develop time management skills and find other resources on campus. Student-athletes will be encouraged to meet with the director on a monthly basis. Members of SAAC help clean and organize the contents of the Butler-Hancock trophy case as a community service project. NCAA CHAMPS/Life Skills Program The CHAMPS (Challenging Athletes Minds for Personal Success)/Life Skills program is designed to help student-athletes realize higher academic achievement, increased likelihood of retention, graduation and entering a chosen profession, a greater level of maturity, self-responsibility and greater overall success. Did You Know? Ten (1) Northern Colorado teams notched a 3. or better GPA during the 25 spring semester with the women s tennis team leading the way with a combined 3.62 average.

59 Northern Colorado Athletic Fund 57 What is the Northern Colorado Athletic Fund? The Northern Colorado Athletic Fund (NCAF) is the premier annual fundraising arm of athletics at the University of Northern Colorado. Formerly the Blue & Gold Club, the NCAF incorporates the same goal - excellence in the pursuit of academic and athletic success. The NCAF will build on the tradition of the Blue & Gold Club and position Northern Colorado for success at the Division I level. Created in 1982 as the UNC Blue and Gold Club, the newly named Northern Colorado Athletic Fund is made up of alumni and friends of the University of Northern Colorado united in an organized effort to serve the university through their particular interest in intercollegiate athletics. Dedicated to providing scholarship assistance to qualified studentathletes, the NCAF has provided a much-needed extra measure of support, since revenue from gate receipts and appropriations from the university are insufficient to meet growing athletic scholarship demands. Other important purposes of the NCAF include contributing funds for capital improvements to Northern Colorado athletic facilities and for other athletic activities not normally funded through institutional and/or student fee allocation sources. Comprehensive gift club levels will allow the Department of Athletics to appropriately reward and recognize donors for their generosity and support. What do Athletic Scholarships Mean To a Top Athletic Program? Northern Colorado s move to the NCAA Division I level and its success on the playing field rests upon its ability to attract the best and brightest student-athletes. NCAF scholarships enable male and female student-athletes to pursue a quality education at one of the region s top universities and participate in an intercollegiate athletic program that competes on a national level. Because of the support provided by the NCAF, Northern Colorado student-athletes have maintained a level of athletic and academic excellence of which the university, our alumni and fans may be proud. The transition to NCAA Division I status, coupled with Big Sky Conference membership, has triggered a need to develop new funding ideas and concepts. Annual Club Levels $1, & above...

Big Sky Conference History The Big Sky Conference enters its 43rd year of athletic competition in 25-6 preparing to expand its footprint across the West. The University of Northern Colorado accepted an invitation to join the Sky in July 25 and will officially become a member in July 26. The Big Sky is an NCAA Division I member in all sports, with member institutions classified as I-AA in football. The Big Sky will be in its fifth and final year with the current eight-team membership of Eastern Washington, Idaho State, Montana, Montana State, Northern Arizona, Portland State, Sacramento State and Weber State. The league has become one of the strongest Division I conferences in the West and is a national leader in I-AA football. The Big Sky Conference was established in 1963 by six charter members Idaho, Idaho State, Gonzaga, Montana, Montana State and Weber State. Those six schools formed the foundation of the Big Sky before the league expanded in 197 by adding Boise State and Northern Arizona. Gonzaga left the Sky in 1979 and was replaced by Nevada, which gave the league eight members. The conference grew to nine schools in 1987 with the addition of Eastern Washington. The 199s saw change in the makeup of the league, beginning in 1992 when Nevada departed and put the Big Sky back at eight teams. In 1996 Boise State and Idaho left and at the same time the conference added Portland State, Sacramento State and Cal State Northridge. The Big Sky maintained nine teams for five years before Cal State Northridge departed in the spring of 21, giving the Big Sky its current makeup. With the addition of Northern Colorado, the Big Sky will spread across seven states spanning from the Pacific Ocean to the Rocky Mountain front. The Big Sky is represented along the entire west coast with schools in Washington, Oregon and California. League schools also range up and down the Rocky Mountains with institutions in Montana, Idaho, Utah, Arizona, and in 26, Colorado. Of the eight western-most states in the contiguous United States, only one, Nevada, is not represented in the Big Sky. On Feb 25, 1963, the name Big Sky was adopted by the six presidents of the charter members as the name of the new conference. The name Big Sky originated in a novel written by the late A.B. (Bud) Guthrie of Great Falls, Mont., in 1947 titled The Big Sky. Jack Hollowell, a former Montana advertising director, promoted the Big Sky theme for the Treasure State, and Harry Missildine of the Spokane Spokesman-Review called for the newly formed league to be named the Big Sky Conference in his column dated Feb. 2, The Big Sky sponsors championships in 14 sports, including men s and women s cross country, indoor and outdoor track and field, basketball and tennis. In addition, there are also championships in football, and women s volleyball, golf and soccer. The 25-6 season will mark the 18th year that the Big Sky Conference will sponsor championships in women s sports. The former Mountain West Conference existed from , sponsoring championships for women s sports at the same institutions the Big Sky had men s programs. The Big Sky merged with the Mountain West in 1988, forming one league for both men and women. Doug Fullerton, the fifth commissioner of the Big Sky Conference, will enter his 11th year at the helm. Fullerton took over the Big Sky on July 1, 1995, replacing longtime commissioner Ron Stephenson. Stephenson served the league for 14 years. Steve Belko was the commissioner from while John Roning held the post from The first league commissioner was Jack Friel, who served from University of Northern Colorado Women s Basketball

Originally named Butler-Hancock Hall, the arena was renamed at the beginning of the 24-5 season to better reflect the improved experience for the fans. The facility will undergo a major upgrade starting in June 26, which includes new theatre-style chair-back seating, concession and restroom upgrades, a sound system upgrade and a scoreboard upgrade. The project is funded by a student referendum passed during the 24-5 school year. With a seating capacity of 4,5 fans, Butler-Hancock Sports Pavilion has been the site of numerous memorable events. UNC played host to regional volleyball tournaments in 1981, 1989, 199 and 22, a regional men s basketball tournament in 1989 and a regional women s basketball game in Butler-Hancock was also the site of the 1992, 1996 and 21 NCAA Division II National Wrestling Championships.
