Seahawk Track & Field<br />

The University<br />

The University of North Carolina <strong>Wilmington</strong> boasts of undergraduate learning<br />

opportunities second to none and professors whose <strong>com</strong>mitment to knowledge is surpassed<br />

only by their dedication to students. It offers effective learning environments<br />

that integrate teaching and mentoring with research and service at a level that rivals<br />

exclusive research institutions of similar size.<br />

Students consistently praise the quality of their interactions with faculty and<br />

express a high degree of satisfaction with their overall educational experience. The<br />

faculty culture emphasizes teaching and mentoring, incorporating research as an<br />

important <strong>com</strong>ponent of the undergraduate learning experience and an opportunity<br />

to have an impact on the state’s most pressing issues. International experiences<br />

are encouraged through study abroad programs and language and culture studies<br />

on campus.<br />

Recognized in recent years by several national publications<br />

as a top public undergraduate institution, <strong>UNC</strong>W continues its pursuit to soar to even greater<br />

heights.<br />

“The <strong>UNC</strong>W of today is a fantastic university,” said Chancellor Rosemary DePaolo.<br />

“The momentum that propels us to soar higher derives from our students’ achievements, faculty<br />

and staff ac<strong>com</strong>plishments and strong support from alumni, friends, trustees, volunteer<br />

board members and other donors.”<br />

For 10 consecutive years <strong>UNC</strong>W<br />

has ranked in the top 10 of the best<br />

public regional universities in the<br />

South by U.S. News & World Report.<br />

For the fifth consecutive year,<br />

<strong>UNC</strong>W received the “Best in the<br />

Southeast” designation by The<br />

Princeton Review. It is one of only<br />

four North Carolina public universities<br />

included in Peterson’s<br />

Competitive Colleges 2008: Top<br />

Colleges for Top Students.<br />

Established as <strong>Wilmington</strong> College in 1947, the university is made up of the College of Arts and Sciences,<br />

the Cameron School of Business, the School of Nursing, the Watson School of Education and the Graduate School. <strong>UNC</strong><br />

<strong>Wilmington</strong> offers 73 bachelor’s degrees and 25 master’s degrees, a Ph.D. in marine biology and an Ed.D. in educational leadership<br />

and administration.<br />

Degree programs in the School of Nursing, Watson School<br />

of Education and Cameron School of Business are designed specifically<br />

to serve professional workforce needs in the region. The<br />

College of Arts and Sciences<br />

stresses applied<br />

learning experiences<br />

across the liberal arts<br />

disciplines to prepare<br />

its students to bridge<br />

the gap between the<br />

classroom and the<br />

<strong>com</strong>plex problems of<br />

21st century <strong>com</strong>munities.<br />

<strong>UNC</strong>W’s strength in the natural sciences, especially biological sciences, chemistry,<br />

geological sciences and other disciplines that form the core of its internationally respected<br />

niche in marine science, is the result of decades of intentional focus and investment. In<br />

the arts and literature, <strong>UNC</strong>W’s high profile programs are film studies and creative writing.<br />

The Department of Film Studies takes advantage of the location of <strong>UNC</strong>W in <strong>Wilmington</strong>,<br />

N.C., the home of Screen Gems Studios, the largest full-service motion picture facility in<br />

the United States east of California. The Master of Fine Arts in creative writing is one of the<br />

most respected on the East Coast, cited as one of “Five Top Innovative/Unique Programs<br />

in Creative Writing” in 2007 by Atlantic Monthly.<br />

The university has taken a leadership role in the long-term economic, environmental,<br />

educational, social and cultural health of the region. It has a strong <strong>com</strong>mitment to adult<br />

learners and offers short, non-credit university courses, seminars, lectures, travel excursions and other educational opportunities.<br />

Overall, the university has an annual $500 million economic impact on the eight-county region. This represents 10 percent of total<br />

economic activity in the seven-county region.<br />

<strong>UNC</strong>W Administration<br />

Rosemary DePaolo, Chancellor<br />

Rosemary DePaolo became chancellor of the University of North Carolina <strong>Wilmington</strong> in July 2003. Under her<br />

visionary leadership, <strong>UNC</strong>W has attained national prominence as a model for teaching, research and service.<br />

A highlight of her administration is an unprecedented university-wide strategic planning process which reflects the<br />

university’s <strong>com</strong>mitment to providing its students with the most powerful learning experience possible.<br />

Under her leadership, <strong>UNC</strong>W continues to rise in academic quality. The average SAT of in<strong>com</strong>ing freshmen improved<br />

from 1104 in fall 2003 to 1157 in fall 2007, the third highest in the <strong>UNC</strong> system, behind only <strong>UNC</strong> Chapel Hill and<br />

NC State. The 53-point increase is unprecedented among any of the <strong>UNC</strong> schools.<br />

Now in her fifth year at <strong>UNC</strong>W, DePaolo continues to lead the university’s rise in national prominence. In the 2008<br />

edition of America’s Best Colleges published by U.S. News & World Report, <strong>UNC</strong>W moved from seventh to the sixth<br />

place among the best public regional master’s university in the South. Among the 119 public and private universities in<br />

the South that provide a full range of undergraduate and master’s level programs, <strong>UNC</strong>W improved its overall ranking<br />

from 20th in 2007 to 14th in the 2008 edition.<br />

Under DePaolo’s leadership, for the fifth consecutive year, <strong>UNC</strong>W received the “Best in the Southeast” designation<br />

by The Princeton Review. <strong>UNC</strong>W is one of only four North Carolina public universities included in Peterson’s Competitive<br />

Colleges 2008: Top Colleges for Top Students. This is the first year <strong>UNC</strong>W has been featured in that publication.<br />

Throughout her time in office, Chancellor DePaolo has been an advocate for using the intellectual capital of the university to address issues of concern to<br />

the region, particularly in furthering economic development. Under her guidance, <strong>UNC</strong>W achieved Millennial Campus designation of several sites to be used<br />

for public/private research ventures capitalizing on the university’s strengths in marine biotechnology among others.<br />

She is actively involved in several initiatives to improve the university’s local and regional outreach efforts, including serving as an ex-officio member of the<br />

Greater <strong>Wilmington</strong> Chamber of Commerce, on the Board of Directors of the Foundation of Renewal for Eastern North Carolina, as chair of the Southeastern<br />

Advisory Committee for Biotechnology of the NC Biotechnology Center, and on the Board of Directors and Executive Committee of the North Carolina Chamber,<br />

the state’s largest and most influential business group. She also serves on the Executive Board of the North Carolina Campus Compact. In 2007/2008 she<br />

chaired the local United Way Campaign with a goal of raising $2.3 million for Brunswick, Pender and New Hanover counties.<br />

A nationally recognized humanities scholar and leader in higher education, DePaolo has served on the Board of Directors and Executive Committee of the<br />

Association of American Colleges and Universities, as well as the American Association of State Colleges and Universities. She also chairs the Colonial Athletic<br />

Association’s Council of Presidents.<br />

Before arriving in <strong>Wilmington</strong>, DePaolo was president of Georgia College & State University, the state’s designated public liberal arts university.<br />

She holds a Bachelor of Arts degree from Queens College of the City University of New York and a master of arts and a doctorate in 18th century English<br />

literature from Rutgers University.<br />

A native of Long Island, New York, DePaolo is married to Fred Wharton, a retired professor of English.<br />

Kelly Mehrtens, Director of <strong>Athletics</strong><br />

Kelly Mehrtens, who <strong>com</strong>piled an impressive administrative resume at four institutions after<br />

record-setting days as an All-American student-athlete, was named director of athletics at <strong>UNC</strong> <strong>Wilmington</strong><br />

on July 2, 2007.<br />

The appointment of Mehrtens, formerly associate director of athletics and senior women’s<br />

administrator at the University of Kansas, followed an extensive national search that attracted 300<br />

applicants and lasted nearly 11 weeks. Mehrtens was introduced during a late-morning press conference<br />

in the Golden Hawk Room of the William P. Nixon Jr., Annex. She began her new post on<br />

Aug. 13, 2007.<br />

A native of Panama City, Fla., Mehrtens spent almost four years at Kansas, where she<br />

served as a key member of KU’s senior administrative team. She oversaw 15 men’s and women’s<br />

sports with operating budgets totaling more than $15 million, serving as a highly-efficient manager of high<br />

profile revenue and non-revenue sports programs.<br />

In addition to handling numerous senior administrative duties in Lawrence, the 44-year-old Mehrtens also established a successful track<br />

record in the fund-raising realm. She played a key role on KU’s fundraising team that has racked up $19 million in facility improvements in three years. In addition,<br />

she helped the Jayhawks increase their annual giving in athletics from $5 million in 2003 to $12 million.<br />

Mehrtens truly has been an advocate of the student-athlete. She developed KU’s Student-Athlete Development/Leadership Program and worked with the<br />

Student-Athlete Advisory Committee to raise $1 million to help fund women’s sports facilities.<br />

Prior to joining the staff at Kansas, Mehrtens worked in a similar capacity at the University of Illinois. She oversaw all operations for men’s basketball,<br />

women’s basketball, volleyball, men’s track and field, women’s track and field, men’s golf, women’s golf, women’s swimming and softball for the Illini. She also<br />

administered game contracts and scheduling for men’s basketball, coordinated post-season travel for men’s and women’s basketball and performed numerous<br />

other senior management-level duties, including the creation of a softball program and overseeing construction of a $1.7 million softball facility in Champaign.<br />

From 1989-92, Mehrtens worked as assistant athletic director for business and senior women’s administrator at the University of Miami. She managed<br />

the program’s $20 million budget and was responsible for financial planning and budgets for all of the Hurricane programs.<br />

Prior to her stint in Coral Gables, Mehrtens served as special assistant to the director at Northeastern’s University Center for the Study of Sport In Society<br />

and as Assistant Athletic Director for Business in NU’s women’s athletics department.<br />

Mehrtens also spent two years as executive director of S.M.A.R.T. Sports, Inc., a <strong>com</strong>munity-based partnership program to provide mentoring for youth<br />

in Miami, Fla., between the Miami and Illinois appointments.<br />

As a student-athlete, Mehrtens enjoyed a successful collegiate career at the University of Alabama. She threw the discus on the women’s track team,<br />

collecting All-American honors in 1985 and making the World University Games and Pan American Teams in 1987. She finished fourth in the 1992 U.S. Olympic<br />

Trials. Mehrtens earned a Bachelor of Science Degree in Commerce and Business Administration from Alabama in 1986 and <strong>com</strong>pleted her Master’s Degree<br />

in Education from Illinois in 2001.<br />

Mehrtens has been very active on the CAA and NCAA fronts. She serves on the prestigious NCAA Division I Management Council and on the Big 12<br />

Strategic Plan Review Committee and Championships and Awards Committee. She was the Big 12 Administrator’s Council Co-Chair in 2006-07.<br />

Mehrtens has been married to Nicholas Mehrtens III for three years and has two stepdaughters; Marina, 14, and Kayla, 8.<br />

Coaching Staff<br />

Jim Sprecher<br />

Head Coach<br />

13th Season<br />

Ball State, 1985<br />

Jim Sprecher, the most successful<br />

cross country/track and<br />

field coach in <strong>UNC</strong> <strong>Wilmington</strong><br />

history, has established the<br />

<strong>UNC</strong>W program as one of the<br />

CAA’s best as he enters his 13th<br />

season in 2008-09.<br />

Sprecher, 45, guided the<br />

Seahawks to three consecutive<br />

Colonial Athletic Association<br />

men’s track and field championships<br />

from 1997-99 before<br />

accepting the top post at his<br />

alma mater, Ball State.<br />

He returned to <strong>UNC</strong>W<br />

in 2004 and has picked up<br />

where he left off, leading<br />

the Seahawks to titles once<br />

again in 2005, 2007 and 2008.<br />

The Seahawks captured their ninth overall men’s<br />

championship last spring in dramatic fashion, taking the 4x400<br />

Relay and rallying for the win. Ten Seahawks won CAA championships,<br />

18 were named All-East and nine qualified for the NCAA<br />

Regionals in Tallahassee, Fla.<br />

2007-08 was a special year for the program in addition to winning<br />

the CAA Championship. A pair of alums were honored when<br />

Michael McDuffie was inducted into the <strong>UNC</strong>W Hall-of-Fame and<br />

Anna Raynor <strong>com</strong>peted in the U.S. Olympic Trials.<br />

<strong>UNC</strong>W won its first of two straight CAA titles in 2007. On the<br />

men’s side, the Seahawks produced six CAA champions and 22<br />

All-CAA performers. Sprecher’s club then posted a best-ever fifth<br />

place finish at the IC4A Championships in Princeton, N.J., qualifying<br />

seven performers for the NCAA Regionals in Gainesville, Fla.<br />

The women’s squad, meanwhile, continues to make progress<br />

as well, highlighted by the emergence of thrower Anna Raynor.<br />

The remarkable athlete successfully defended her Championship<br />

of Americas title in the javelin at the Penn Relays and qualified for<br />

the NCAA Championships for the third straight year.<br />

Overall, the women’s team featured five All-CAA performers,<br />

17 qualifiers for the ECAC Championships and five qualifiers for<br />

the NCAA Regionals.<br />

In 2004-05, Sprecher led the Seahawks to their seventh CAA<br />

crown with a school-record 218.5 points. He was named CAA<br />

Coach-of-the-Year for the fourth time after collecting the honor in<br />

1997, 1998 and 1999.<br />

Following a brief stint at Ball State, Sprecher came back to the<br />

Port City and began rebuilding the program. In 2004-05, <strong>UNC</strong>W<br />

featured 12 conference champions, 41 All-CAA performers, 25<br />

NCAA East Regional qualifiers and set 23 school records.<br />

The 2004-05 campaign also saw the emergence of one of the<br />

top athletes in the program’s history as Raynor grabbed the national<br />

spotlight. Raynor became the school’s first national qualifier<br />

for the indoor nationals in the high jump and then collected All-<br />

American honors in the javelin at the NCAA Outdoor Track & Field<br />

Championships in<br />

Sacramento, Calif.<br />

S p r e c h e r<br />

headed up the<br />

<strong>UNC</strong>W program<br />

from 1992-99 before<br />

leaving for<br />

Muncie. In seven<br />

seasons, he led<br />

the Seahawks to<br />

three CAA titles,<br />

coached 37 individual<br />

conference<br />

champions and<br />

173 All-CAA performers.<br />

In that<br />

span, Seahawk<br />

thinclads earned<br />

All-East honors<br />

49 times and<br />

won Penn Relays<br />

events five<br />

times, four in relay<br />

events and one individual crown. He also coached two NCAA<br />

Division I national qualifiers and one Academic All-American.<br />

Sprecher was named CAA Men’s Track & Field Coach-of-the-<br />

Year in 1997 and 1998, and shared the honor with James Madison’s<br />

Bill Walton<br />

in 1999. In<br />

Colonial Athletic Association Championships.<br />

Thomas, who coached the hurdlers and high jumpers in College<br />

Park, also recruited Maryland’s 1999-2000 Track & Field News nationallyranked<br />

recruiting class.<br />

While at Maryland, Thomas coached Vanessa Jones to an Atlantic<br />

Coast Conference Championship, an ECAC Championship and three<br />

NCAA Championship appearances in the High Jump. In 2000, Jones<br />

reached the finals of the High Jump at the Olympic Trials. Thomas also<br />

trained Thema Napier to an ECAC Championship and NCAA Championship<br />

appearance in the 400 Hurdles. In 2002, Napier reached the finals of<br />

the USA Track & Field Championships in the 400 Hurdles.<br />

Thomas has coached athletes that have qualified for the Olympic Trials,<br />

USA Championships, NCAA Championships and earned All East, All<br />

ACC and All CAA Honors. He is a USATF Level One Certified Coach.<br />

Jeni Steiner<br />

Assistant Coach<br />

Jeni Steiner enters her first season with the<br />

Seahawks after joining the staff on Aug. 21, 2008.<br />

“Jeni is a tremendous addition to out coaching<br />

staff,” said Sprecher. “Being a former Olympic<br />

Trials and NCAA qualifier, she’ll be a great role<br />

model for our student athletes.”<br />

Steiner <strong>com</strong>es to <strong>UNC</strong>W after spending the past season as a volunteer<br />

assistant with the storied Nebraska Track & Field program. With the<br />

Seahawks, she’ll be working with the athletes in throw events.<br />

Steiner, who earned All-Big 12 honors six times, was a four-year letterwinner<br />

for the Huskers where she earned First-team Academic All-Big<br />

12 honors her final three seasons in Lincoln. As a freshman, she earned<br />

Second-Team Academic All-Big 12 honors. In 2007, she was named Nebraska’s<br />

Most Improved Female Field Athlete after breaking the 52-foot<br />

mark and advancing to the NCAA National Championships in Sacramento,<br />

Calif. That same season, Steiner finished 16th overall at the Olympic qualifier<br />

in Indianapolis.<br />

Layne Schwier<br />

Assistant Coach<br />

Layne Schwier enters his sixth year as an<br />

assistant coach with the Seahawks and will be responsible<br />

for coaching the men’s and women’s distance<br />

programs during both the cross country and<br />

the track seasons. His squads are making strides<br />

in the CAA in cross country and expect to make a<br />

contribution once again this spring on the track as both teams make another<br />

run at a CAA Championship. Distance runners under Schwier currently hold<br />

62 spots on <strong>UNC</strong>W’s Top 10 all-time lists, with 31 of them being achieved<br />

by current team members. In addition to improved running performance, the<br />

squads have excelled in the classroom with the women’s team being named<br />

an All-Academic team by the USTFCCCA for five straight years. Schwier’s<br />

athletes have been named Academic All-American eight times.<br />

In 2005, Marissa Murtaugh garnered All-CAA following her 11th-place<br />

individual finish at the CAA Cross Country Championships. In 2007, Bernadette<br />

O’Neill finished fifth in the 10k at the CAA Track & Field Championships.<br />

For the past 5 years, Coach Schwier also was responsible for the<br />

Seahawk throws program. Under his guidance, the Seahawks achieved 27<br />

All-CAA performances (12 individual titles), 25 IC4A/ECAC qualifiers (7 All-<br />

East performances and 4 Champions), 17 NCAA Regional qualifiers, and<br />

broke 5 school records. They also qualified an athlete to the NCAA Championships<br />

four out of those five years, including the very first for the <strong>UNC</strong>W<br />

women’s track & field program when Christie Schreckengost qualified in the<br />

javelin in 2004.<br />

A highlight in Schwier’s coaching career was his role in the emergence<br />

of Anna Raynor in the javelin. Despite having no experience in the event<br />

before college, Raynor ended her career with the Seahawks as a threetime<br />

All-American (11th at NCAA’s in 2005, fourth in 2006 and 2007), CAA<br />

Champion, ECAC Champion, two-time Penn Relays Champion, as well as<br />

the CAA and <strong>UNC</strong>W record holder in the javelin. In addition to being named<br />

the CAA Track & Field Athlete-of-the-Year for the third consecutive year in<br />

2007, Raynor also was named the Southeast Region Field Athlete-of-the-<br />

Year. In the summer of 2007, Raynor finished third at the USA National<br />

Championships. As a member of Team USA that summer, she took the<br />

silver medal at the NACAC Senior Games in El Salvador.<br />

Schwier graduated from Wittenberg in Springfield, Ohio, where he ran<br />

cross country and track for four years. While at Wittenberg, he was coached<br />

by 1964 Olympic Gold Medalist Bob Schul. He later received his masters<br />

in Sport Biomechanics from Ball State. Schwier is a member of the UST-<br />

FCCCA and USA Track & Field. He holds USATF Level II Certification in<br />

Throws, Jumps, Combined Events and Endurance. He is also a USATF<br />

Certified Level I Instructor and a regularly invited speaker at track & field<br />

clinics.<br />

Colonial Athletic Association<br />

With more than two decades of success athletically and<br />

academically, the Colonial Athletic Association has established<br />

a reputation as one of the nation’s top collegiate conferences.<br />

The CAA en<strong>com</strong>passes five of the nation’s nine largest<br />

metropolitan areas with a geographic footprint that stretches<br />

from Boston to Atlanta. The conference has produced 16 national<br />

team champions in five different sports, 33 individual<br />

national champions, 12 national players of the year, 11 national<br />

coaches of the year and 12 Honda Award winners. Even<br />

more impressive, however, are the honors accumulated away<br />

from <strong>com</strong>petition, which include five Rhodes Scholars and 20<br />

NCAA post-graduate scholars. In 2007-08, the CAA had five<br />

ESPN the Magazine Academic All-Americans and more than<br />

1,700 of our 4,000 student-athletes received the Commissioner’s<br />

Academic Award after posting at least a 3.2 grade point<br />

average while lettering in a varsity sport.<br />

The landscape of the conference stretches along the majority<br />

of the East Coast and includes six of the nation’s top<br />

25 media markets – New York (1), Philadelphia (4), Boston<br />

(7), Washington, D.C. (8), Atlanta (9) and Baltimore (24). The<br />

number of television homes in the CAA market exceeds 19.7<br />

million.<br />

The CAA currently sponsors 22 sports with the addition of<br />

a 12-team football league in 2007. Male athletes <strong>com</strong>pete for<br />

championships in baseball, basketball, cross country, football,<br />

golf, lacrosse, soccer, swimming and diving, tennis, track and<br />

field and wrestling. Female athletes battle for conference titles<br />

in basketball, cross country, field hockey, golf, lacrosse, soccer,<br />

softball, swimming and diving, tennis, track and field and<br />

volleyball. In 2007-08, 26 teams earned NCAA Tournament<br />

berths and 46 student-athletes received All-America honors.<br />

The conference has made its presence known nationally in men’s basketball with at least three teams advancing to post-season play for<br />

the past five years. Last season, conference champion George Mason earned its third NCAA Tournament trip since 2001, VCU received its<br />

fourth post-season berth in five seasons with a spot in the NIT and Old Dominion reached the quarterfinals of the inaugural CBI for its fourth<br />

consecutive postseason appearance.<br />

The conference also excels in many other sports. CAA squads have <strong>com</strong>bined to win 10 field hockey national titles since the championship<br />

began in 1981. Delaware and Towson have each reached<br />

the Final Four of the NCAA Men’s Lacrosse Championship.<br />

NCAA Championship in five of the last six years. In baseball,<br />

the CAA had 23 players chosen in the 2008 Major League<br />

draft, which was the second-highest total in league history.<br />

<strong>UNC</strong> <strong>Wilmington</strong> won its fifth regular season title and earned<br />

its second at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament where the<br />

Seahawks reached the regional finals for the third time in four<br />

tournament appearances. James Madison, meanwhile, captured<br />

for the first time since 2002.<br />

CAA member institutions are <strong>com</strong>mitted to excellence in<br />

the classroom. The Colonial Academic Alliance was created in<br />

2002 by the league’s presidents with a goal of expanding their<br />

partnership to all aspects of university life outside of intercollegiate<br />

athletics. Among the programs already established are<br />

an undergraduate research conference, coordination of study<br />

abroad programs and granting visiting academic status to student-athletes traveling to an away contest so that they have access to libraries,<br />

academic resource centers and <strong>com</strong>puter labs.<br />

Commissioner Thomas E. Yeager has guided the CAA since its inception. The conference traces its roots back to 1983 when three of its<br />

current members- George Mason University, James Madison University and the College of William and Mary - were aligned with East Carolina<br />

University, the United States Naval Academy and the University of Richmond as a basketball league (ECAC South). During the next two years,<br />

the league added 11 sports, acquired two new members (the University of North Carolina at <strong>Wilmington</strong> and American University) and decided<br />

to form a new association. The transformation from ECAC South to CAA took place on June 6, 1985.<br />

Charter members George Mason, James Madison, <strong>UNC</strong> <strong>Wilmington</strong> and William and Mary were joined by Old Dominion University in 1991<br />

and by Virginia Commonwealth University in 1995. The conference added the University of Delaware, Drexel University, Hofstra University and<br />

Towson University in 2001. Georgia State University and Northeastern University became members of the conference on July 1, 2005.<br />

the student-athlete, encouraging emotional well-being, personal growth and decision-making<br />

<strong>Wilmington</strong>: Gem of the Coast<br />

Founded more than 250 years ago on the<br />

Cape Fear River, <strong>Wilmington</strong> has developed<br />

into one of the fastest growing deep-water ports<br />

on the East Coast, <strong>com</strong>bining economic potential<br />

with an abundance of outdoor recreational<br />

opportunities.<br />

<strong>Wilmington</strong> has a historic legacy that begins<br />

before the Revolutionary War and runs<br />

through its stance as the last Atlantic port<br />

open to blockade runners during the Civil<br />

War. Today, the continuous restoration and<br />

preservation in the Historic District is a tribute<br />

to the city’s proud heritage.<br />

Historic <strong>Wilmington</strong> affords visitors the unique opportunity<br />

to enjoy a bustling seaport rich in shopping, dining, culture and the arts, while being only minutes away from barrier<br />

islands, broad beaches and the intracoastal waterway.<br />

The 200-block Historic District highlighting the downtown area opens into a scenic riverfront park that overlooks the USS North<br />

Carolina Battleship Memorial.<br />

A beautifully restored battleship, the USS North Carolina was considered the greatest sea weapon in the world when <strong>com</strong>missioned<br />

in 1941. During World War II, “The Showboat” earned 15 battlestars and participated in every major naval offensive in the Pacific from<br />

Guadalcanal to Okinawa. A memorial since 1961, the battleship is dedicated to the men and women of all U.S. military services who<br />

defended our country during WWII.<br />

One of <strong>Wilmington</strong>’s most unique features is the city’s status as the leading entertainment production center in the Southeast. The<br />

city’s evolution into “Hollywood East” began when Dino DeLaurentis shot Stephen King’s Firestarter in 1984.<br />

One year later, Dino DeLaurentis constructed a studio facility in the Port City and the <strong>com</strong>plex, now owned by EUE/Screen Gems,<br />

is the largest production studio east of Hollywood, offering nine sound stages on a 32-acre site near the <strong>Wilmington</strong> International Airport.<br />

Numerous movies, television series and <strong>com</strong>mericals have been filmed in <strong>Wilmington</strong>. The popular show, “Dawson’s Creek,” was<br />

produced in <strong>Wilmington</strong> and shot frequently on the <strong>UNC</strong>W campus as well as Warner Bros. hit “One Tree Hill.”<br />

A film-friendly <strong>com</strong>munity, <strong>Wilmington</strong> residents have embraced the industry, often appearing as “extras” in movies. It’s not un<strong>com</strong>mon<br />

for celebrities the likes of Sandra Bullock, Nick Nolte, Julia Roberts, Tom Cruise and Dennis Hopper to be seen dining at a<br />

restaurant, shopping at the mall or just simply walking along the shore.<br />

Wrightsville Beach, just minutes away from <strong>Wilmington</strong>’s downtown area, is a year-round island resort. Wide, uncrowded beaches,<br />

full service marinas and a variety of ac<strong>com</strong>modations are <strong>com</strong>plemented by excellent seafood restaurants, specialty shops and exciting<br />

nightlife.<br />
