2 SEASON OUTLOOK The influence of nine new players, five of whom appear on the season-opening roster for the UCLA men s volleyball team, will directly impact the Bruins success in UCLA lost two starters from last season s outmanned team, and brought in nearly a dozen new faces to fill the void in other areas. The result has produced more competition, forced returnees to elevate their games, and generally shaken up the practice court. The 2009 lineup features a mixture of youth and experience, power and finesse, athleticism and fundamentals. It also boasts veteran players at valuable positions, and rewards talent and quickness at the others. The Bruins compiled a record of 6-2 in eight preseason matches, winning the Husky Dino Cup in October. They also won two of three matches in their own fall tournament. On Dec. 8 they were voted preseason No.1 in a poll by the league s coaches. On the strength of this momentum, they expect to contend for the conference title and national championship in the spring. Head Coach Al Scates, who enters his 47th season, prefers to run his program this way. No lineup is set until it proves successful. At UCLA, success is measured in national championships. Following are capsule summaries of UCLA s personnel for the 2009 season. At Newport Harbor High, Caldwell earned eight varsity letters in basketball and volleyball. He was a volleyball All-American and Fab 50 selection in 2008, and played on the U.S. Junior National Team that won the bronze medal in El Salvador. Penciled in as Caldwell s backup is 6-6 redshirt freshman Jack Polales, another Fab 50 honoree and two-time all-conference selection from New Trier High in Winnetka, IL In 2007, Polales led New Trier to a runner-up finish in the Illinois state tournament. After a year in the program, Polales is starting to play to his potential, said Scates. He has one of the best vertical jumps on the team. Behind these two players is last year s starter, 6-4 senior Ryan Ratelle. Recruited originally as an outside hitter, Ratelle switched to opposite last season following Klosterman s departure. He recorded career-highs in all offensive categories, including 23 kills and 25 points against Pepperdine. A solid server and hitter, Ratelle figures to have a role against certain opponents in selected situations. SETTERS No team in the MPSF boasts a pair of quality setters who can run an offense with equal efficiency. Senior Matt Wade started 24 matches last season and figures to be one of the top setters in the conference this season. Junior Kevin Ker played in 30 matches last season and recorded seven starts. We re fortunate to have two quality setters, said Scates. Whoever starts will be the one who is playing the best in practice that week. Practice performance also means consistent serving. The starkest contrast between Ker and Wade lies in their success at the service line. Wade served nine aces last season, but made just 24 errors. His short float serve creates problems for many opponents when it drops in front of the 10-meter line. Ker serves bullets to both sidelines, and recorded 14 aces as a sophomore. However, his 67 errors kept him out of the lineup at times. When he s hot, he can be an ace machine, as when he recorded 18 aces in the final 16 matches of the 2007 season. Kevin has the ability to run off points in bunches, said Scates. Statistically, Matt is a better blocker. They both have different strengths. In a match last season against UC Santa Barbarra, Ker recorded a career-high 70 assists, the most by a Bruin setter in six years. As a junior, Wade boasted nine matches of 50 assists or more, and ranked 14th nationally at assists per game. His career total of 2,460 assists ranks third on UCLA s rally-scoring charts; Ker ranks fourth at 1,369. OPPOSITES Last season, the Bruins did not have an adequate replacement for Steve Klosterman, the school s all-time rally scoring leader. This season, 6-8 true freshman Kyle Caldwell has earned the starting spot, and raised expectations. Kyle s a player who can do everything, said Scates. He s a hitter, a passer, a blocker and a setter. There will be times when we ll need another passer, and he will help us in that area. He s also a great jump server. Having a second five-tool player not only provides UCLA with more offensive weaponry, it forces opponents to spread their defense and respect the entire lineup. This was evident in Canada where UCLA received balanced scoring and high attack percentages from its opposite and outside hitter positions. Junior setter Kevin Ker UCLA MEN S VOLLEYBALL

3 SEASON OUTLOOK Junior outside hitter Brett Perrine OUTSIDE HITTERS The Bruins other five-tool player, 6-5 junior Garrett Muagututia, figures to have a breakout season in Since his arrival, he has lost 20 pounds and gained arm strength and vertical inches to his jump. According to the head coach, the player who established a single season school record last season with 473 kills and earned All-America honors, has improved his hitting. He s now starting to hit the ball at the apex of his jump, said Scates. He s a fine all-around player, and he raises the level of intensity of our play. He s also assuming a lot of the leadership on our team. Muagututia also led the team with 547 points, and ranked 19th nationally at 4.68 points per game. He enters this season with 35 career double-digit kill matches and 11 career double-doubles. Finally, he also boasts 21 career errorless passing matches. On the other side of the court is 6-9 senior Sean O Malley, a player who settled into the left side hitter s spot, and recorded 345 total kills and hit.317 as a junior. Last season he earned Honorable Mention All- MPSF acclaim. In the fall, he earned MVP honors at the Husky event after recording 47 kills and hitting.474. Competing with O Malley is 6-5 fourth-year junior Brett Perrine, who has blossomed at the outside hitter s position after spending much of last season struggling at opposite and quick hitter. Brett is an excellent passer, and he s improved every facet of his game, said Scates. He was the most improved player [during the SAC tournament]. O Malley enjoyed a great preseason, Scates continued. His passing has improved tremendously, and so has his blocking. That position [H2] is wide open, Scates revealed. Other players listed at one or both spots include 6-5 third-year sophomore Teddy Goetz, who played in two matches last season, and 6-5 junior Kent Kraushaar, who played in five matches a year ago before suffering a shoulder injury. QUICK HITTERS So intense is the competition at this position that last year s 24-game starter 6-7 senior D.J. Stromath has been edged out at both spots by a pair of underclassmen. Six-foot, eight-inch sophomore Weston Dunlap and 6-9 true freshman Nick Vogel have assumed starting roles, despite Stromath s experience. What the Bruins gain in these two youngsters is quickness. Dunlap earned a varsity letter by playing in 19 matches and recording a blocking average of 0.8. But his inexperience kept him behind Stromath and three-year letterman Jamie Diefenbach for one season. Vogel, quick, tall and long-armed, gives the Bruins a presence at the net that they haven t seen in a few years. Dunlap has gotten stronger and more explosive; he s probably the quickest middle blocker in the league, said Scates. Vogel was our leading blocker in the preseason. He can go from pin to pin very quickly. He s got a long reach, good footwork and a nice jump serve. At present, Stromath is battling both players and could regain his starting spot. Last season, he was the Bruins most consistent player, leading the team with 27 aces, hitting at a.372 clip and blocking nearly one ball a game. In his first season as a full-time starter, he earned Honorable Mention All-MPSF recognition. Also pushing for a playing time in the middle is converted freshman opposite Thomas Amberg, a second-team prep All-American and volleyball MVP last season at Valhalla High. LIBERO A midseason injury last season to All-American Tony Ker, forced 5-11 Tom Hastings into action at Hawaii. Then a freshman, Hastings held his own in a two-match league series, recording 20 digs in two matches and passing at a.952 clip. At the end of the season, Hastings had earned a varsity letter by playing in 13 matches and passing better than 96% of his service attempts. Hastings had a very good preseason, said Scates. He s a very reliable passer, who passes a lot of perfect balls. At the SAC Tournament, 6-4 sophomore Jeremy Casebeer played libero while Hastings sat out with an injury. Following the tournament, Casebeer underwent knee surgery and will be sidelined until at least March. Goetz can also play this position, and could see some early playing time. Goetz passed well during the preseason, said Scates. He will get a chance to play UCLA MEN S VOLLEYBALL 3

First place is the only acceptable finish. Al Scates has coached UCLA to 19 NCAA titles, while all other collegiate men s volleyball programs have won 18 championships combined. Scates 19th title, won against Penn State in 2006, continued one of the greatest careers in collegiate coaching.

Junior Tony Ker became the 52nd first-team All- American in the Scates Era and Steve Klosterman became the Bruins all-time leader in kills and points during the rally-scoring era. In 2006, Scates guided the Bruins to their most exciting NCAA title, taking a team that was through midseason and leading it on a 14-match march through the last third of the league season, the MPSF playoffs and the NCAA Tournament. No player earned AVCA 1st Team All-America or 1st AL SCATES ERA ACCOMPLISHMENTS Team All-MPSF honors, and yet, when the dust settled at the end of the season, the Bruins were NCAA champions once again. Their final mark set a record for most losses by a champion and they became the first seventh-seeded team in league history to win the conference tournament. At the NCAA Championship, Steve Klosterman earned Most Outstanding Player honors and seniors Damien Scott and Dennis Gonzalez were named to the All-Tournament Team. Scates was named the 2006 Coach of the Year by Spike/Volleyball magazine.

Finally, Scott Morrow and Adam Naeve earned NCAA All- Tournament honors. In 2000, senior Brandon Taliaferro motivated the Bruins on the court and Scates prepared them for an exciting run to the national championship. Forced to win the grueling MPSF Championship, the Bruins defeated defending NCAA champion BYU in the first round, beat Loyola Marymount in the semifinals and ousted Pepperdine in the league championship match to earn the top seed at the NCAAs. Then, they swept Penn State in the semifinals and Ohio State in the finals to capture title No. 18. Taliaferro earned Player of the Year honors from Volleyball Magazine, senior Matt Davis earned Libero of the Year honors and Williams, Seth Burnham, Evan Thatcher and Morrow earned either All-America, NCAA All-Tournament or All-MPSF honors.

Scates also earned a unique trifecta of coaching accolades: he was voted AVCA, USA Volleyball and U.S. Olympic Committee Coach of the Year. Finally, he was elected to the California Beach Volleyball Hall of Fame. In 1997, Scates guided a team that had lost the co-player of the year and its primary passer to the NCAA title match for the fifth consecutive year. The Bruins, who rallied from an 0-2 deficit in the final, came within two swings of stealing their third straight title. Scates coached the Bruins to their fifth consecutive MPSF Mountain Division crown and was named 1997 MPSF Coach of the Year. On February 19, 1997, the Bruins defeated USC on the road, capturing Scates 900th career victory. In 1996, Scates took a team that lost four starters from the previous season s national championship squad and guided it to a fourth straight division title and league championship, finally culminating in UCLA s 16th NCAA title and 21st national championship in men s volleyball. In 1995, Scates guided the Bruins to their 15th NCAA title, a 31-1 record and a third straight conference divisional title.

In addition, former UCLA All- Americans Doug Partie and Ricci Luyties joined Kiraly and Saunders on the 1988 Olympic Team, which successfully defended its Olympic title. Under the leadership of Kiraly, Partie and Salmons, the U.S. Team completed its only Triple Crown, adding a 1986 World Championship title to its 1985 World Cup crown and 84 Olympic gold medal. Kiraly left no doubt that he was the world s best volleyball player, earning World Cup and USA Cup Most Valuable Player honors. At the 1992 Olympics, Partie returned to the USA Team and led it to a bronze medal. Fred Sturm (UCLA 76) served as head coach. At the 1996 Atlanta Games, Kiraly made history by becoming the only male volleyball player ever to win three Olympic gold medals. Kiraly and partner, Kent Steffes, won the inaugural Olympic Beach Volleyball competition at Atlanta Beach. Indoors at Atlanta, Scates served as a consultant to the U.S. team, watching former All- Americans Jeff Nygaard and Dan Landry as well as coaches Fred Sturm and Rudy Suwara.
