Under his guidance, the <strong>Hawks</strong> have made back<strong>to</strong>-back<br />

with a 3-4-1 mark in conference play, while making<br />

their second-straight conference <strong>to</strong>urnament appearance.<br />

Throughout his tenure at <strong>Hartford</strong>, Gaspar has<br />

also been instrumental in increasing the fan base at<br />

<strong>Hartford</strong>, which for 2008 ranked 39th nationally, <strong>to</strong><br />

an 814 per-game average.<br />

<strong>Hartford</strong> placed four players on all-conference<br />

teams last season. Juniors Ivan Guarin and Carlos<br />

Fresh off back-<strong>to</strong>-back America East Tournament appearances,<br />

the 2009 edition of the University of <strong>Hartford</strong> men’s<br />

soccer team has all of the talent needed <strong>to</strong> have another<br />

successful year. The <strong>Hawks</strong> return one of the most talented<br />

groups of upperclassmen, as Coach Gaspar welcomes<br />

back 100-percent of last season’s scoring from a team<br />

that finished 7-8-3 overall. In addition, five highly-skilled<br />

newcomers will look <strong>to</strong> build on the momentum that was<br />

generated last season.<br />

Keepers<br />

A trio of returning goalkeepers plus the addition of three<br />

new faces <strong>to</strong> the roster gives Coach Gaspar and the <strong>Hawks</strong><br />

great options for the 2009 campaign.<br />

Senior Nenad Cudic (Novi Sad, Serbia) and sophomore<br />

Luke Citriniti (Niskayuna, NY) return for the upcoming<br />

season with ample game experience. The pair split time<br />

in goal for the <strong>Hawks</strong> in 2008, helping the defense post<br />

eight shu<strong>to</strong>uts - seven of which were vic<strong>to</strong>ries.<br />

Cudic started and played in 12 games for the <strong>Hawks</strong>,<br />

recording three shu<strong>to</strong>uts. In his rookie campaign, Citriniti<br />

allowed just four goals in eight games for a 0.62 goalsagainst-average,<br />

ranking second overall in the league for<br />

that category.<br />

Freshman Aaron Utman (Prince<strong>to</strong>n, NJ) joins junior transfer<br />

Jordan Bar (Centerville, MA) as newcomers <strong>to</strong> the <strong>Hawks</strong>’<br />

roster. Bar comes <strong>to</strong> <strong>Hartford</strong> after spending two seasons<br />

at Fairfield University and Utman was an all-state selection<br />

while at Hopewell Valley Central High School. Sophomore<br />

Matt Hament (Richmond, VT) will add depth <strong>to</strong> the<br />

line-up.<br />

Defenders<br />

2009 Season Preview<br />

The <strong>Hawks</strong> return four skillful and experienced defenders<br />

<strong>to</strong> the backline. <strong>Hartford</strong>’s depth on the defensive side of<br />

the pitch could be its best asset in 2009.<br />

Cedomir Tomcic (Novi Sad, Serbia), Anthony Buehler (Seymour,<br />

CT), Bojan Delibasic (Novi Sad, Serbia), and Jorge<br />

Rodriguez (East <strong>Hartford</strong>, CT) - all starters from the 2008<br />

back line that posted eight shu<strong>to</strong>uts - return <strong>to</strong> the <strong>Hawks</strong>’<br />

defense.<br />

Tomcic proved <strong>to</strong> be a physical presence in the back line,<br />

and is expected <strong>to</strong> increase his role not just in the backfield,<br />

but also as a leader. Following his transfer <strong>to</strong> <strong>Hartford</strong><br />

from Mid-Continent University, Tomcic stepped right in<br />

<strong>to</strong> a starting spot, closing out the season with a goal and<br />

dished out one assist.<br />

Buehler and Delibasic, both juniors, saw time in all 18<br />

games last season. Delibasic, a two-year starter, returns<br />

after posting career-best numbers 2008, including a pair<br />

of goals and an assist.<br />

Rodriguez made an instant impact on the Hawk’s defense<br />

in 2008, starting and playing in every game during his<br />

first collegiate season. The America East All-Rookie Team<br />

selection uses his speed <strong>to</strong> his advantage, and is expected<br />

<strong>to</strong> play more of an important role this season.<br />

Newcomer Ben Poppen (Ankenny, IA) will join the four returning<br />

starters for in the battle for playing time in the<br />

back field. Poppen, an all-conference second team selection<br />

in 2008 while playing at Ankenny High School, was a<br />

member of the 2007 Iowa high school state championship<br />

team. In addition, the defender also played for the Des<br />

Moines Menace of the Premier Development League, and<br />

was a member of the Iowa ODP State Team. Scott St.<br />

Cyr (Eas<strong>to</strong>n, CT), a sophomore, is recovering from ACL<br />

surgery and will hope <strong>to</strong> return for the second half of the<br />

2009 season.<br />

Midfielders<br />

In the midfield, Coach Gaspar has the luxury of looking<br />

<strong>to</strong> the experience of seniors Kevin Hall (Portland, OR),<br />

Ivan Guarin (Periera, Colombia) and Howard Wong (St.<br />

Catherines, Jamaica) - <strong>to</strong> lead the unit along with juniors<br />

Jamie Thomas (Edinburgh, Scotland) and Sam Groves<br />

(Sut<strong>to</strong>n, MA).<br />

Hall has appeared in 43 career games - a team-high<br />

- for the scarlet red and white, making 32 starts. Wong<br />

appeared in 14 games, making 13 starts after transferring<br />

from San Jacin<strong>to</strong> College. He is a speedy wing<br />

player who adds bite <strong>to</strong> the midfield unit.<br />

Although an injury limited Guarin’s time on the field in his<br />

debut season, the 2008 America East First Team selection<br />

ranked third on the team with five points including a pair<br />

of goals and an assist.<br />

Groves has started in 24-consecutive games dating back<br />

<strong>to</strong> the 2007 season. He tallied a career-best five points<br />

last season, assisting on two game-winners against Massachusetts<br />

and UBMC. The combination of Guarin and<br />

Groves will create a dangerous duo in the center midfield<br />

for the <strong>Hawks</strong>.<br />

A pair of significant recruits who are capable of making<br />

a smooth transition <strong>to</strong> the college game will make their<br />

debut at midfield. Kevin Lewis (Pawcatuck, CT) and James<br />

Stamopoulos (Mississauga, Ontario) will join the experienced<br />

group of midfielders, providing Coach Gaspar<br />

with ample scoring threats from the position.<br />

Lewis, a four-year member of the varsity soccer team at<br />

S<strong>to</strong>ning<strong>to</strong>n High School, led his high school in scoring and<br />

assists as a junior. He played for the Oakwood Soccer<br />

Club in the United States Development Academy, participated<br />

with the Connecticut Olympic Development Program,<br />

and represented the United States with the U-15<br />

National Team.<br />

Stamopoulos led Port Credit Secondary School in scoring<br />

for three-straight seasons. He was a member of the<br />

Canadian U-15 National Team in 2007, and in 2006, he<br />

was invited <strong>to</strong> the Canadian U-15 team’s training camp<br />

in Braden<strong>to</strong>n, FL.<br />

Fo r w a r d s<br />

The forward position is where Coach Gaspar sees the<br />

most promising as <strong>Hartford</strong> returns a host of upperclassmen<br />

and 100 percent of its point production from the<br />

2008 season.<br />

Senior Carlos Villa (Las Conchas, Guatemala), an allconference<br />

first team selection in 2008, returns up fron<strong>to</strong>r<br />

the <strong>Hawks</strong> after an impressive first year at <strong>Hartford</strong>.<br />

The junior college transfer from San Jacin<strong>to</strong> College


<strong>to</strong>pped the America East conference with 12 goals (0.67<br />

goals-per-game) while ranking second in the league with<br />

27 points (1.50 points-per-game). Villa also recorded<br />

a team-best five-game scoring streak and notched four<br />

game-winners, and earned NSCAA All-New England<br />

Third Team honors at the conclusion of the season.<br />

Patrick Boucher (Cromwell, CT) returns <strong>to</strong> the <strong>Hawks</strong>’<br />

front line after making a terrific rookie freshman season.<br />

Boucher finished as the second-leading scorer on the<br />

team with six points, recording a pair of goals and a<br />

pair of assists. The America East All-Rookie Team selection<br />

was just one of five <strong>Hawks</strong> <strong>to</strong> start and play in every<br />

game, and will be expected <strong>to</strong> take on an increased role<br />

up front.<br />

Also returning <strong>to</strong> the 2009 roster is senior Vernon Perinchief<br />

(Southamp<strong>to</strong>n, Bermuda). Perinchief has played in<br />

36 games, making 13 starts during his three-year tenure<br />

with the <strong>Hawks</strong>.<br />

Senior Andreas Blamo (Monrovia, Liberia), who missed<br />

the 2008 campaign due <strong>to</strong> an ACL injury, returns <strong>to</strong> the<br />

<strong>Hawks</strong>’ attack for his final season. Prior <strong>to</strong> his injury, Blamo<br />

was the America East Striker of the Year and <strong>Hartford</strong>’s<br />

leading point-getter in 2007, leading the squad<br />

with six goals and four assists. The return of Blamo for<br />

2009 will add significant quality <strong>to</strong> an attack that produced<br />

20 goals last season.<br />

University of <strong>Hartford</strong><br />

Small Classes, Big Opportunity<br />

At the University of <strong>Hartford</strong>, classes are small, but the list of academic offerings is not. The<br />

University is a comprehensive, independent institution, offering educational and career programs<br />

in 89 undergraduate and 33 graduate areas of study in its seven schools and colleges.<br />

It prides itself on providing the intimacy of a liberal arts college with the creativity and intellectual<br />

excitement of a university.<br />

While the range of studies offered at the University is diverse, so, <strong>to</strong>o, are the people. Enrolled<br />

are 4,842 full-time undergraduates, 853 part-time undergraduates, and 1,671 graduate students,<br />

representing 45 states and 49 countries. The full-time student-<strong>to</strong>-faculty ratio is 14:1.<br />

Tradition<br />

The University of <strong>Hartford</strong> dates back <strong>to</strong> 1877, when the first of its original three schools was<br />

founded. The <strong>Hartford</strong> Art School (1877), Hillyer College (1879), and The Hartt School (1920)<br />

joined in 1957 <strong>to</strong> form the University of <strong>Hartford</strong>.<br />

The origins of the University can be traced back <strong>to</strong> the wife of Mark Twain. Mrs. Samuel Clemens,<br />

along with Harriett Beecher S<strong>to</strong>we of Uncle Tom’s Cabin fame, formed an art society that<br />

later became the <strong>Hartford</strong> Art School.<br />

Expansion<br />

The University has undertaken several ambitious building projects over the past half decade.<br />

A $34-million Integrated Science, Engineering, and Technology complex, which included major<br />

renovations <strong>to</strong> the adjacent Dana Hall (one of the original buildings on campus),<br />

opened in 2005. On its heels, new turf athletics fields brought a much different look <strong>to</strong><br />

the opposite end of campus, benefitting students, faculty, staff, alumni, and community<br />

residents.<br />

2009 <strong>Hartford</strong> <strong>Hawks</strong> MEN’S SOCCER<br />

The new Renée Samuels Center opened in January 2007, providing the <strong>Hartford</strong> Art<br />

School with new space for its pho<strong>to</strong>graphy and media arts programs.<br />

In fall 2007, Hawk Hall, a five-s<strong>to</strong>ry residential facility for first-year students and its<br />

adjacent Alumni Plaza, a new outdoor gathering place for students, greeted students<br />

returning <strong>to</strong> campus.<br />

Now open just a mile from the University’s main campus, the Mort and Irma Handel<br />

Performing Arts Center houses five dance studios, four theatre rehearsal studios and<br />

two black box theatres. It is a vibrant center for dance and theatre instruction and<br />

performances at one of the key gateways <strong>to</strong> the city of <strong>Hartford</strong>.<br />

The University of <strong>Hartford</strong> also houses two public magnet schools on its campus—an elementary school for students from <strong>Hartford</strong> and several neighboring<br />

<strong>to</strong>wns and University High School of Science and Engineering, which saw its legacy class graduate this past June.<br />

Quality<br />

The University prides itself on its growing academic reputation, best illustrated by a consistent<br />

year-<strong>to</strong>-year increase in applications (more than 12,000 received annually) and selectivity (the<br />

University’s acceptance rate is lower than at any time in its his<strong>to</strong>ry). The educational experience<br />

takes place in small, supportive classroom environments.<br />

Location<br />

The charm of the suburbs and the opportunities of the city all come alive at the University of <strong>Hartford</strong>.<br />

Situated on a 340-acre, wooded, suburban campus, the University borders <strong>Hartford</strong>, West<br />

<strong>Hartford</strong>, and Bloomfield. Midway between Bos<strong>to</strong>n and New York City, down<strong>to</strong>wn <strong>Hartford</strong>, only<br />

five miles away, is gaining a name for itself.<br />

Campus Activities<br />

Numerous social, recreational, and entertainment alternatives exist for students on campus. More<br />

than 100 groups, clubs, and organizations, including campus media, student government, fraternities<br />

and sororities add <strong>to</strong> student life. The Campus Activities Team (CAT) is a student-run organization<br />

whose sole purpose is <strong>to</strong> schedule events for student enjoyment.<br />

The University of <strong>Hartford</strong> has gained a national reputation for the quality of cultural activities<br />

and fine-arts exhibits on its campus. The Hartt School and the Joseloff Gallery of the <strong>Hartford</strong> Art<br />

School are highly respected. Lincoln Theater, the Sports Center, and three audi<strong>to</strong>riums host numerous<br />

special events throughout the year.<br />

in 1998, the University has<br />

experienced a period of<br />

energy and momentum unmatched<br />

in its his<strong>to</strong>ry. President<br />

Harrison has overseen<br />

dramatic improvements in<br />

academic quality, finances,<br />

and fundraising.<br />

More than 7,300<br />

students (5,600 undergraduates<br />

and 1,700<br />

graduate students) study at<br />

the seven schools and colleges<br />

of the University of <strong>Hartford</strong>,<br />

which is classified as a doc<strong>to</strong>ral<br />

research–intensive university by<br />

the Carnegie Foundation for the<br />

Advancement of Teaching. The<br />

institution has seen a 15 percent increase in undergraduate enrollment,<br />

and a 23-percent increase in degrees awarded, over the past decade.<br />

A highly visible figure on campus, President Harrison is known for<br />

his enthusiasm for student life and University activities, and is fondly<br />

referred <strong>to</strong> as Walt by many students.<br />

During President Harrison’s tenure, the University has undertaken<br />

a vigorous and comprehensive building campaign. Many of the University’s<br />

residence halls have been renovated, and Hawk Hall, the University’s<br />

new five-s<strong>to</strong>ry, 208-bed residence for first-year students,<br />

was completed during the summer of 2007. The oval-shaped Alumni<br />

Plaza, constructed out of concrete of various colors and finishes, now<br />

provides students with a large gathering spot on the residential side<br />

of campus.<br />

At the heart of this construction campaign are three major<br />

new additions <strong>to</strong> the University’s signature academic programs:<br />

The Renée Samuels Center of the <strong>Hartford</strong> Art School (opened in<br />

January 2007), the Integrated Science, Engineering, and Technology<br />

Complex (opened in 2005), and the Mort and Irma Handel<br />

Performing Arts Center (opened in September 2008), which houses<br />

the Dance and Theatre divisions of The Hartt School. The Handel<br />

Center, located in the Upper Albany and Blue Hills neighborhoods<br />

of <strong>Hartford</strong>, one mile east of the University’s campus, also contains<br />

space for community activities.<br />

Two buildings have been renovated <strong>to</strong> house two of the University’s<br />

leading liberal arts programs: Psychology (East Hall) and<br />

Communications and Cinema Studies (Abrahms Hall). In 2006, the<br />

University opened new state-of-the-art athletic fields for soccer, lacrosse,<br />

softball, and baseball.<br />

The University’s vibrant relationship with the Greater <strong>Hartford</strong><br />

community is a hallmark of President Harrison’s tenure. The University<br />

has become a recognized leader in helping <strong>to</strong> improve public<br />

schools. It is the only private university in the country with two public<br />

magnet schools on campus—the University of <strong>Hartford</strong> Magnet<br />

School and the University High School of Science and Engineering.<br />

President Harrison’s community involvement is extensive. He<br />

serves on the boards of direc<strong>to</strong>rs of the Connecticut Conference of<br />

Independent Colleges and the <strong>Hartford</strong> Consortium of Higher Education.<br />

He is currently the president of the board of the <strong>Hartford</strong> Stage<br />

Company. He serves as trustee or direc<strong>to</strong>r of a number of other <strong>Hartford</strong>-area<br />

organizations, including the Greater <strong>Hartford</strong> Arts Council,<br />

Saint Francis Hospital and Medical Center, the Connecticut Science<br />

Center, and Suffield Academy. He is also a direc<strong>to</strong>r of WorldBusiness<br />

Capital, an international finance firm based in <strong>Hartford</strong>.<br />

Reflecting his longtime interest in intercollegiate athletics, President<br />

Harrison chairs the National Collegiate Athletic Association’s<br />

Committee on Academic Performance, the group charged with implementing<br />

academic reforms among the nation’s leading intercollegiate<br />

athletic programs, and serves on a number of other NCAA committees.<br />

He is the immediate past chair of the NCAA Executive Committee. He<br />

also serves on the Presidential Advisory Committee of the Association<br />

of Governing Boards.<br />

All this is a long way from President Harrison’s beginnings as a<br />

scholar of American literature and culture. A native of Pittsburgh, he<br />

graduated from Trinity College in <strong>Hartford</strong> in 1968, then earned a<br />

master’s degree from the University of Michigan in 1969. After an<br />

interim of three years <strong>to</strong> serve as a captain in the United States Air<br />

Force, President Harrison earned a doc<strong>to</strong>rate from the University of<br />

California–Davis. His doc<strong>to</strong>ral dissertation, “Out of Play: Baseball Fiction<br />

from Pulp <strong>to</strong> Art,” was one of the earliest scholarly treatments of<br />

baseball and its place in American life.<br />

In 1982 President Harrison left full-time teaching <strong>to</strong> take an administrative<br />

position at Colorado College. He joined Gehrung Associates<br />

University Relations Counselors in 1985, becoming president of<br />

the firm shortly thereafter. In 1989 President Harrison moved <strong>to</strong> the<br />

University of Michigan, where he became vice president of university<br />

relations and secretary of the university.<br />

President Harrison and his wife, Dianne, a scholar of 19th-century<br />

Vic<strong>to</strong>rian literature and mystery literature, make their home in Russell<br />

House, the president’s residence at the University of <strong>Hartford</strong>.


Patricia H.<br />

Meiser<br />

Sp e c i a l Assistant <strong>to</strong><br />

t h e President/<br />

Direc<strong>to</strong>r o f Athletics<br />

Pat Meiser, in her 17th<br />

year at the University of<br />

<strong>Hartford</strong>, serves as the<br />

direc<strong>to</strong>r of athletics and<br />

special assistant <strong>to</strong> the<br />

president.<br />

One of only 22 women<br />

direc<strong>to</strong>r of athletics<br />

among the 329 institutions<br />

competing at the Division I<br />

level, Meiser has 38 years<br />

of experience in coaching<br />

and athletics administration.<br />

In June of 2009 she<br />

was named the Northeast<br />

Region I-AAA Under Armour<br />

Athletics Direc<strong>to</strong>r of<br />

the Year award for the<br />

second time (2006), and<br />

in May of 1999, she was<br />

named one of the nation’s<br />

<strong>to</strong>p 50 women’s sports executives<br />

by Street & Smith’s<br />

Sports Business Journal.<br />

At <strong>Hartford</strong>, Meiser<br />

heads a team that is responsible<br />

for growing the<br />

athletics and academic<br />

quality of the program, enhancing revenue and extending the program<br />

in<strong>to</strong> the community.<br />

In Meiser’s tenure, seven sports (women’s basketball, men’s soccer,<br />

women’s soccer, men’s golf, women’s golf, men’s tennis and women’s<br />

volleyball) have won America East Conference championships and<br />

either reached NCAA Division I <strong>to</strong>urnament or national postseason<br />

play. Basketball, in particular, has emerged with Meiser’s hiring of<br />

Jennifer Rizzotti and Dan Leibovitz. The women’s basketball team has<br />

been crowned America East Conference champion and reached the<br />

NCAA Tournament in 2002, 2005, 2006 and 2008. The men’s team<br />

set a school record with 18 wins in 2007-08 and advanced <strong>to</strong> the<br />

America East Championship finals for the first time in school his<strong>to</strong>ry.<br />

Revenue enhancement has also been an area of growth for <strong>Hartford</strong><br />

under Meiser’s leadership. This has taken place through an expanded<br />

fund raising and alumni relations effort, development of a<br />

corporate sponsorship program, implementation of a licensing program<br />

and successful grant submissions. Most significantly, <strong>Hartford</strong><br />

athletics embarked on a $10 million athletics capital campaign in<br />

April of 2003. The campaign, called Home Field Advantage, funded<br />

the renovation of the existing soccer and lacrosse field, the relocation<br />

and construction of a softball field, the construction of a baseball<br />

field and will include construction of a track surrounding an allpurpose<br />

field. The ground breaking for Home Field Advantage <strong>to</strong>ok<br />

place in April of 2005, and Phase I of the project was completed in<br />

2007. Phase II is presently under way.<br />

Meiser’s commitment <strong>to</strong> academics is well documented and demonstrated<br />

through the success of her student-athletes. <strong>Hartford</strong> has<br />

been among the leaders in The America’s East’s Academic Cup standings<br />

each of the past 10 years. The <strong>Hawks</strong> won the Cup in 1996-<br />

97. This past academic year, the average student-athlete GPA was<br />

2.98.<br />

Reaching out in the community is important for Meiser. She is past<br />

chair of the Greater <strong>Hartford</strong> Convention and Visi<strong>to</strong>rs Bureau and<br />

her appointment came at a critical time as the city opened a $350<br />

Direc<strong>to</strong>r of Athletics Patricia H. Meiser<br />

million convention center. Meiser was named a Connecticut “Woman<br />

of Merit” by the Girl Scouts in June 2000. She is a board member of<br />

both the Connecticut Special Olympics and the Connecticut Women’s<br />

Hall of Fame. In Oc<strong>to</strong>ber of 2007, Meiser served as Co-Chair of the<br />

CWHF Gala that celebrated the 35th anniversary of Title IX. The<br />

evening brought <strong>to</strong>gether the <strong>to</strong>p female Olympians and national<br />

champions with ties <strong>to</strong> the state of Connecticut.<br />

Meiser has also been involved with various intercollegiate committees<br />

and organizations at the conference, regional and national<br />

levels. She serves on the Executive Committee of NACDA and is a<br />

past President of the Division I-AAA Athletics Direc<strong>to</strong>rs Association<br />

(NACDA), has been a professional sport liaison, member of the soccer<br />

rules committee and active as a NCAA Certification representative.<br />

Over the years, she has also served a variety of roles in the America<br />

East Conference and is presently a member of the Executive Committee.<br />

Prior <strong>to</strong> joining the <strong>Hawks</strong>, Meiser was the associate athletics direc<strong>to</strong>r<br />

for administration and senior women’s administra<strong>to</strong>r at the University<br />

of Connecticut. During her 10 years at Connecticut, she played<br />

a pivotal role in the rejuvenation of the athletics program.<br />

Before arriving at Connecticut, Meiser was the head women’s<br />

basketball coach and a tenured faculty member at Penn State<br />

(1971-81). She gave the first women’s basketball scholarship at Penn<br />

State in 1974 and advanced the program <strong>to</strong> Top-20 status in the late<br />

1970s. In addition, she coached the Gold Medal-winning East team<br />

in the inaugural 1979 National Sports Festival.<br />

Meiser holds a bachelor’s degree in health and physical education<br />

(1969) from West Chester University and a M.Ed. in education<br />

(1971) and an MBA in business administration (1986) from Penn State.<br />

She is a native of Lancaster, PA, and has four children: Katherine, 36,<br />

wife of Jason Steadman of London; Chris<strong>to</strong>pher, 34, husband of Renee<br />

The University of <strong>Hartford</strong> celebrates its<br />

26th year competing at the Division I level in<br />

2008-09. Division I competition in all sports<br />

began in 1984-85, and the ensuing 25 years<br />

have been keynoted by success. The following<br />

is a sampling of some of the achievements.<br />

<strong>Hartford</strong> has fielded NCAA or national <strong>to</strong>urnament<br />

Strength & Conditioning<br />

The <strong>Hartford</strong> <strong>Hawks</strong> strength and<br />

conditioning program is designed <strong>to</strong> develop<br />

the best gains, in the least amount<br />

of time, in the safest way possible. It is<br />

the goal of the staff <strong>to</strong> develop both<br />

the muscular and cardiovascular systems<br />

in a manner that is compatible with<br />

the demands of competing as a Division<br />

I student-athlete.<br />

The hands-on approach not only increases<br />

safety in the weight room, but<br />

augments results of each athlete. The<br />

commitment from the coaching staff is<br />

the single most determining fac<strong>to</strong>r which<br />

maximizes results both in- and off-season.<br />

The methods endorsed at <strong>Hartford</strong><br />

are based on research, physiological<br />

fact and years of experience. The<br />

college experience is a learning environment<br />

and the weight room is no different.<br />

The lessons that are learned in<br />

the weight room will be applicable <strong>to</strong><br />

life once your playing days are over at<br />

<strong>Hartford</strong>.<br />

The purpose of the <strong>Hartford</strong> <strong>Hawks</strong><br />

strength and conditioning program is<br />

<strong>to</strong> create a bigger, stronger, betterconditioned<br />

student-athlete that is less<br />

susceptible <strong>to</strong> injury.<br />

There are two ways <strong>to</strong> become involved<br />

as a donor <strong>to</strong> University of <strong>Hartford</strong><br />

women’s soccer. Both play an important role<br />

in shaping the direction of the program and<br />

impacting the lives of student-athletes.<br />

The first is the Booter’s Club. Donations<br />

<strong>to</strong> the Booter’s Club are annual commitments<br />

used <strong>to</strong> supplement the program’s operating<br />

budget. Improving the team’s schedule<br />

and expanding resources for recruiting are<br />

a couple ways these resources are utilized.<br />

The second is the Soccer Excellence<br />
