The James C. Gentle Head Coach of Men's Soccer — Brian ‘Rudy’ Fuller 

RUDY 

FULLER 

6th season 

The James C. 

Gentle Head 

Coach of Men's 

Soccer Rudy Fuller 

enters his sixth 

season at the helm 

of the University of 

Pennsylvania men's 

soccer program in 

2003. In a very 

short amount a 

time, he has 

changed the way 

people look at 

Penn soccer and 

more importantly, 

how the program 

looks at itself. 

From renovating 

Rhodes Field to 

recruiting some of 

the best players in 

the country, Fuller has rebuilt Penn soccer from the 

ground up into one of the elite soccer programs in 

the country. 

The excitement continues to grow around the 

program that went from the basement of the Ivy 

League to champions in two seasons. The 2002 

Penn squad finished with a 12-4-1 record and captured 

its first Ivy League championship in 22 years, 

earned its first NCAA Tournament bid in 25 years, 

and earned its first NCAA Tournament win in 29 

years. Penn was ranked as high as 14th in the nation 

during the season and spent much of the year in the 

nation's top 25. Penn goalkeeper Matthew Haefner 

was named third-team NSCAA All-American, 

becoming Penn's first All-American since 1984. 

Haefner also became Penn's first men's soccer player 

to be named the Ivy League Player of the Year. 

Following the season, Fuller was named the 2002 

Mid-Atlantic Region Coach of the Year by the 

NSCAA, 2002 Men's Soccer Coach of the Year by 

the SEPSCA, and recorded his second consecutive 

Philadelphia Soccer 7 (PS7) Coach of the Year 

Award. 

The Quakers set three new program records in 

2002 - shutouts in a single season (10), lowest GAA 

(0.45) and highest save percentage in a single season 

(.923). The 2002 squad also allowed the second-fewest 

goals in the program's history in a single 

season with seven. Haefner also set four individual 

goalkeeping records in 2002 - lowest GAA in a season 

(0.45), shutouts in a season (10), save percentage 

in a single season (.923) and minutes played in 

a single season (1,598). 

One of Fuller's strongest attributes is his ability 

to develop players in his program and allow them to 

reach their potential on the soccer field. In 2001, the 

Quakers claimed their first-ever outright PS7 title. In 

2002, the team posted seven players to the All-Ivy 

League Team, four players were named NSCAA All- 

Mid Atlantic Region and four players were named to 

the PS7 All-Star Team. Penn also became the home 

to the PS7 Freshman of the Year (John Rhodes). 

Fuller's student-athletes have also excelled in the 

classroom during his tenure. Penn has found itself 

among the best and brightest and was honored with 

the National Soccer Coaches' Association of 

America's Team Academic Award for the past three 

seasons. The Quakers’ team GPA has been in the 

top 10 nationwide in each of the past three years, 

and in 2000, they earned the highest GPA of any 

Division I men's soccer program. 

The athletic and academic successes of Fuller's 

teams have energized the proud tradition of Penn 

Soccer and the alumni of the Red and Blue have 

shown their approval with their support and generosity. 

In 2002, Penn Soccer christened a new 

home thanks to the $1 million fundraised in the past 

three years. The newly renovated Rhodes Field has 

become one of the top soccer facilities in the Ivy 

League and one of the best in the country. 

Prior to Penn, Fuller played a major role as a student-athlete 

and coach in building a successful program 

at Georgetown University. While coaching 

Georgetown, Fuller helped guide the Hoyas to the 

first two NCAA Tournaments in their history and to 

the "Sweet Sixteen" in 1997. 

In addition to his playing and coaching career at 

Georgetown, Fuller played for the Bethesda (Md.) 

Alliance team that finished third in the 1990 Under- 

19 McGuire Cup National Championship. From 

1993, he played for the Greek American-Spartans 

Soccer Club based in Washington, D.C., alongside 

many teammates who currently play Major League 

Soccer. During Fuller's tenure with the club, they 

were Maryland State Open and Amateur Cup 

Champions and advanced to the Regional Amateur 

Cup Finals. 

Fuller is a former member of the Maryland 

Olympic Development (ODP) Staff, and more 

recently, both the Region I ODP Staff and the 

Eastern Pennsylvania (EPa) ODP Staff. Last year, 

Fuller helped lead the EPa 1984 Boys ODP team to 

the National Championship and his EPa 1987 Boys 

ODP team was a Region I ODP Championship 

finalist. Fuller has now led the past six ODP teams 

he has coached to the Region I finals and has captured 

four titles. Prior to joining the Region I and 

Eastern Pennsylvania staffs, Fuller was a part of the 

Maryland ODP for 13 years, four as a player and 

nine as a coach. In addition, Fuller coached the 

Bethesda (Md.) Soccer Club's 1981 Alliance team. 

The Alliance was the 1997 Maryland State 

Champions in the Under-16 age group and 

advanced to the Snickers Region I semifinals. 

Fuller currently serves on the NCAA Division I 

Men's Soccer Committee and chairs the NCAA 

Division I Middle Atlantic Regional Advisory 

Committee. He also sits on the NSCAA/adidas 

College Ranking Committee for the Mid-Atlantic 

Region. In addition, he is a member of the 

National Soccer Coaches' Association of America. 

Fuller founded and currently serves as the 

Director of the Elite 300 Soccer Academy. He also 

provides his coaching expertise each summer at 

the University of Pennsylvania Junior Quaker 

Soccer Camp. Fuller completed his MBA degree 

from Villanova University in the summer of 2003. 

Fuller and his wife, Kate, and sons, Reilly and 

Liam, reside in Philadelphia, Pa.

2003 Men’s Soccer Coaching Staff 

BOB 

BUTEHORN 

3rd season 

Entering his third season 

with the Red and Blue in 

2003, Bob Butehorn will 

continue to use his experience 

and knowledge to 

help the University of 

Pennsylvania soccer program 

remain on top of 

the Ivy League for the 

second consecutive year. 

The former head 

coach at St. 

Bonaventure, Butehorn 

led the Bonnies from 

1995-99, completely 

rebuilding the program 

both athletically and academically. 

He took a 

program that had consistently 

finished last in the 

Atlantic-10 conference to 

both a regional and national ranking. Under Butehorn, the 

team also maintained an overall GPA of 3.0 in his last two 

years, and four of his players went on to play in professional 

leagues. 

Butehorn's fundraising and alumni relations experience, 

which allowed his team to travel to Portugal in 1998 for 

competition, should greatly benefit the Penn men's soccer 

program over the next few years. 

Prior to taking up the role of the Bonnies' head coach, 

Butehorn served as an assistant coach for the University 

of Maryland where he was an integral part of the turnaround 

of that program, eventually guiding the Terps to 

NCAA round of 16. 

Butehorn has also coached numerous amateur players 

from the East Region as the Region I Festival Coach for 

the U.S. Soccer Federation. During his three-year tenure 

as a festival coach, Butehorn led the East squad to two 

gold medals and saw 12 of his players eventually join 

Major League Soccer teams. 

During his coaching career, Butehorn has served on 

the Atlantic-10 soccer committee, the NCAA Regional 

Selection Committee and the NSCAA Regional Ranking 

Committee for which he held the chairman position for 

two years. He is also a member of the National Soccer 

Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) and the 

United States Soccer Federation. 

His accreditations include a United States Soccer 

Federation "A" license and an U.S. Regional Soccer 

Clinician. Butehorn graduated from the University of 

Tampa in 1985 with a bachelor’s degree in sports science/physical 

education. As a student-athlete at Tampa, 

he was a member of the soccer team that won the 1981 

NCAA National Soccer Championship. 

Butehorn and his wife, Cindy, have two daughters, 

Madison (7) and Jessica (4) and reside in Shamong, N.J. 

TODD 

HOFFARD 

1st season 

Todd Hoffard will begin his first season as the goalkeeper 

coach for both the men’s and women’s soccer 

teams at the University of Pennsylvania in 2003. 

Prior to coming to Penn, Hoffard, a graduate from 

Division I powerhouse Hartwick College, built an 

impressive playing and coaching resume. 

Hoffard was drafted by the Harrisburg Heat in the 

1994 National Professional Soccer League draft to 

begin an eight year long professional career. In addition 

to the Heat, Hoffard also played for the Cleveland 

Crunch and the Philadelphia Kixx. Most recently, 

Hoffard was a member of the Charleston Battery of 

the A-League during the 2001 and 2002 seasons. 

While playing professionally, Hoffard also coached 

soccer at the collegiate level. In 1996, he was named 

an assistant coach at Elizabethtown College. He 

remained there for two seasons prior to making the 

move to the Division I level in 1998 as part of the 

women’s coaching staff at St. Bonaventure University. 

Hoffard spent two years with the Bonnies and helped 

lead them to the school's first Atlantic-10 Tournament 

berth as well as breaking numerous other school records. 

In 1999, Hoffard left St. Bonaventure and joined the coaching staff at Oneota State 

University as the goalkeeper coach. He later moved on to be an assistant coach with 

the College of Charleston women’s program. 

Hoffard has also served on the Boys/Girls PA ODP staff, the Girls Region I ODP 

staff, and is the owner and director of ONE on ONE Soccer.

2003 Men’s Soccer Season Outlook

Jon Abelson 

(bottom) 

A talented and determined University of Pennsylvania men's soccer team is 

poised and ready to defend it's Ivy League title when the 2003 campaign 

opens. The 2002 Ivy League champions only lost one starter to graduation 

and are returning a strong nucleus. This year’s roster includes Ivy 

League Player of the Year and All-American senior Matt Haefner in goal, 

the Philadelphia Soccer Seven Freshman of the Year sophomore John 

Rhodes and All-Mid-Atlantic Region Team honorees juniors Erik 

Hallenbeck and Stephen Kroculick. 

Head Coach Rudy Fuller will also welcome six newcomers. These 

players could battle for time in the starting lineup and push the veterans to 

new heights as the Quakers prepare to defend their Ivy League title. 

"Our coaches and players are eager to tackle the challenges that lie 

ahead for us. We are a different team this year and everyone associated 

with our program is looking to achieve the highest level of success possible. 

We have set our sights on becoming a better team, defending our Ivy 

League title, and continuing to position ourselves as one of the premier 

programs in the country," Fuller said. 

GOALKEEPERS 

Starting in net for the second consecutive season is Haefner. Last year, he 

was named the program's first All-American since 1984 after earning 

NSCAA/adidas (third-team) and College Soccer News (honorable mention) 

honors. Haefner was also tabbed Penn's first-ever Ivy League Player 

of the Year. His amazing year in goal was punctuated by several records, 

including lowest GAA in a single season (0.45), shutouts in a single season 

(10), save percentage in a single season (.923) and minutes played in a 

season (1,598). Haefner was also tabbed first-team All-Ivy League, firstteam 

NSCAA/adidas All-Mid-Atlantic Region and a PS7 All-Star. In addition, 

he was the recipient of Penn men's soccer's Arthur Binns Most 

Improved Player and the David Gould Most Valuable Player awards. 

"Matt established himself as one of the top goalkeepers in the country 

last year, but he is well aware that he has only scratched the surface of 

his potential. He has matured tremendously and has become very professional 

in his approach to the game. He is determined to continue improving 

in the years ahead," Fuller noted. 

Pushing Haefner for time between the pipes this year will be sophomore 

Bert 

Lockwood 

and freshman 

Garrett 

Herfkens. 

Although 

Lockwood 

didn't see 

playing 

time on 

the field in 

2002, he 

helped 

keep 

Haefner 

sharp. His 

hard work 

Matt Haefner 

coupled with his potential provided the coaching staff with a valuable 

backup that one day should challenge for the starting role. Herfkens 

helped lead his Gunn High School team to the Central Coast Division 

Championship in 2001 and 2003 and was named Goalkeeper of the Year 

and All-Mercury News in 2001 and 2003. Herfkens was also named Gunn 

Athlete of the Year in 2001. 

DEFENDERS 

With the graduation of All-Ivy captain Nathan Kennedy, the Quakers' backline 

will look to a number of players to step up to serve in a leadership 

role. Penn's stingy defense allowed only seven goals during 15 games in 

2002. 

Hallenbeck, who joined the Red and Blue in the spring of 2002 as a 

walk-on, made an immediate impact on the program. In his first collegiate 

season, he started all 17 games, recorded one assist and was tabbed the 

team's co-Defensive Player of the Year. Hallenbeck was also named second-team 

NSCAA/adidas All-Mid-Atlantic Region and was a first-team All- 

Ivy selection. 

"Erik is an all-around winner. He is driven, committed and talented. 

He improved with every game last year and we will need him to continue 

that trend this year. After coming out of nowhere to surprise people last 

season, we will look to him to take on a more prominent leadership role 

within our team this year. I am confident that he is ready for it," Fuller said. 

Joining Hallenbeck in the backfield will be senior Nick Severini, junior 

Brian Candler, sophomores Erik Violante and Justin Estrada, and newcomer 

Andy Howard. Severini, a converted midfielder who served as a reserve 

in the central defense last year, and Candler, who started every game two 

years ago as a freshman, will provide the coaching staff with valuable experience 

as reserves. Violante, who recorded Penn's game-winning goal in 

overtime against Seton Hall in the First Round of the NCAA College Cup 

at Rhodes Field in 2002, finished the season with two goals and picked up 

one assist in 17 starts. Estrada started and gained valuable experience as a 

freshman and the coaching staff will look for him and Violante to step up 

and make more of an impact on this year's squad as sophomores. 

Howard, who captained his Westside Metro club team to the Oregon state 

title last spring and has been a standout performer in the Oregon Olympic 

Development program, is expected to contribute to the team's success in 

his first season. 

"Our backline was one of our strengths last season and I expect this 

year's group to continue the success we experienced defensively a year 

ago. Hallenbeck was one of the best defenders in our region last season, 

and Violante and Estrada were extremely effective as outside backs. I am 

confident that the three of them will step up to fill the void left by Nathan 

Kennedy," remarked Fuller. 

MIDFIELDERS 

This position will again be one of the strongest for the Red and Blue. The 

Justin Estrada 

depth of talent will allow the coaching staff tremendous flexibility for a 

number of combinations in the midfield this season. Holding down the 

center of the field will be Rhodes, senior Louie Lazar, juniors Josh Duyan, 

Brandon Harwood and Matthew Waddell, sophomores Jon Abelson and 

Andrew Fenwick, and newcomers Arthur Bartholomew, Charles Snyder 

and Ryan Tracy. 

Rhodes, who started all but one game in 2002, received several postseason 

accolades including being named third-team NSCAA/adidas All- 

Mid-Atlantic Region, honorable mention All-Ivy, a PS7 All-Star and PS7 

Freshman of the Year. In addition, he was named Penn soccer’s Charles R. 

Scott Freshman of the Year. He was tied for second on the team in points 


2003 Men’s Soccer Season Outlook 

after scoring three goals and recording two assists and was named Ivy 

League Rookie of the Week after scoring the Quakers' winning goal in a 1- 

0 victory over Columbia on Oct. 19. 

"John was truly a special player at times last season. He has been 

working hard to become a more consistent performer over the course of a 

game and throughout a season. When he is fit and consistent, he is one 

of the best two-way players you will find anywhere," Fuller said. 

Lazar has played in 36 games in his career at Penn and continues to 

show unending determination and talent. 

"Louie is the most technically gifted and hardest working player on 

our team. He has played an integral role in our program's development 

over the past three years and in our success last year. The example he sets 

both on and off the field is invaluable to our team," Fuller noted. 

Abelson made 15 starts and recorded two assists, while Duyan played 

in all 17 games, making 15 starts, and was the team's leader in assists with 

five. Duyan also tallied the gamewinner against Dartmouth on Oct. 5 for 

his first collegiate goal. Waddell played in six games last season and will be 

looking to take on a larger role this year. Fenwick and Harwood spent last 

year with the Penn reserve team and were promoted after their strong 

spring campaigns. 

"Our midfield was a bit of a revelation for us last season. We had four 

new, relatively inexperienced starters and they complemented each other 

well. In order for us to continue our success and reach the goals we've set 

this year, we will need to get a more consistent contribution in the attack 

from our midfield," remarked Fuller. 

The three newcomers to the midfield will battle for playing time as 

each brings with him tremendous experience from high school and ODP 

play. Bartholomew transferred to Penn from the University of Washington, 

where he made four appearances and recorded one goal for the Huskies. 

Snyder, whose speed and agility will make him a dangerous threat from the 

midfield, comes from California where was named MVP three consecutive 

years at La Jolla High School and was selected the Western League Player 

of the Year. Tracy led his team to two consecutive conference championships, 

the 2002 Connecticut state championship game, and a No. 2 

national ranking by the NSCAA. 

"With the addition of these three players, the competition within our 

Stephen Kroculick 

midfield group will be fierce. The depth of this midfield group and the 

competition it produces will make our team significantly better and should 

allow us to better cope with any injuries or dips in form that occur over 

the course of the year," Fuller said. 

FORWARDS 

The front line will be headed by a group of fierce competitors who combined 

to make a lethal unit last year. Alongside Kroculick will be juniors 

David Maier and Joe Klein, sophomore Richard Brushett, and newcomer 

Derrick Jumper. 

Penn men's soccer's Offensive Player of the Year, Kroculick will lead 

the attack for the Quakers again in 2003. He finished the season tied for 

the team lead in goals with four, including three gamewinners, and was 

tied for second on the team in points with eight. Kroculick was also named 

third-team NSCAA/adidas All-Mid-Atlantic, second-team All-Ivy and was a 

PS7 All-Star. 

"Last year was Steve's first as a striker in our program. After starting 

in the central midfield as a freshman, we moved him to the forward line 

during preseason. He garnered a lot of attention and accolades, but never 

really settled in and didn't really have a good understanding of what the 

position entailed. Towards the very end of the fall and throughout our 

spring, he began feeling comfortable up top. As dangerous as people 

thought he was last year, we expect him to be much more of a threat in 

the attack for us this year," Fuller said. 

Maier, also a PS7 All-Star, had an outstanding season for the Red and 

Blue, as he led the team in scoring with four goals and three assists for 11 

points. 

"Despite finishing as our leading scorer last season, David has yet to 

really put his mark on our program. After having to sit out his freshman 

season with a stress fracture, he played a significant amount last season, 

but was never able to find a consistent rhythm. He is an exceptionally gifted 

soccer player who, like Kroculick, should be even more dangerous in 

the attack this year," Fuller remarked. 

Brushett, whose height and speed made him a great threat to opponents, 

appeared in all 17 games during his freshman campaign and scored 

one goal, while Klein played in 14 games with three starts. 

"Richard and Joe are both quality forwards, but for different reasons. 

Richard is a tremendous athlete with outstanding speed and Joe is a lethal 

finisher. Both were pushing to get into the starting lineup as reserves last 

season and ended up seeing action in a majority of our games. I expect 

both of them to be in the mix again this year, but only time will tell what 

role they will play," Fuller noted. 

Jumper will look to be as much of a standout at Penn as he was in his 

native Texas, where he was the first athlete from his high school to be 

named All-North Texas after scoring 40 goals in his senior year. 

The combination of seasoned veterans and experienced newcomers 

should be the right mix to help the University of Pennsylvania men's soccer 

team claim 

its second 

consecutive 

Ivy 

League 

title, a feat 

not 

accomplished 

since the 

1971 and 

1972 seasons. 

"There 

is a certain 

Joe Klein 

excitement 

surrounding 

Penn 

soccer and there is a good reason for it. The players and coaches associated 

with our program are determined to take Penn soccer to new heights. 

We want to accomplish things that have never been done here at Penn and 

that is quite a challenge considering some of the teams that have donned 

the Red and Blue. We set high goals for ourselves because we are willing 

and committed to do what is necessary and are confident in our ability to 

achieve them," Fuller said.

A Season for the History Books 

Another chapter in the Penn men's soccer history book closed on 

Nov. 27, 2002 as the Quakers finished 

what could be argued as its best season 

in recent history. The Red and 

Blue's storybook year included its first 

Ivy title in 22 years, a return to the 

NCAA Tournament after a 25-year hiatus, 

seven All-Ivy selections and Penn 

soccer's first-ever Ivy League Player of 

the Year - Matthew Haefner. 

Penn opened the 2002 season at 

the Princeton Soccer Classic during 

the second weekend in September. 

After falling to Seton Hall, 1-0, in the 

weekend's opening game, the team 

rebounded in the second day of the 

tournament to shut out Fairleigh 

Dickinson, 1-0, in a hotly-contested 

battle. The Quakers' victory over the 

Knights, who advanced to the round 

of eight in the NCAA Tournament in 2001, moved Penn to ninth on 

the National Soccer Coaches Association of America's (NSCAA) Mid- 

Atlantic Region Ranking and boosted their confidence as they entered 

Philadelphia Soccer 7 (PS7) and Ancient Eight play. 

Five days later, at the first ever Penn/Kappa Soccer Classic, the Red 

and Blue picked up their second shutout of the season, rolling over 

PS7 rival La Salle, 4-0. Sophomore David Maier led the way for the 

Quakers netting back-to-back goals to close the game. Later that 

week, the Quakers took on another PS7 foe Temple, and came away 

with a hard-fought victory. Senior Robb Jankura found the back of 

the net off an assist from Maier to defeat the Owls, 1-0. 

After improving to 4-1 on the season, the Quakers became the only 

Ivy team in the Mid-Atlantic region to break into the top five of the 

NSCAA Poll, as they advanced to fifth. Statistically, Penn broke into 

the NCAA's top-25 in shutout percentage (18th, 0.50), won-lost-tied 

percentage (15th, .833) and team GAA (sixth, 0.49). Individual members 

of the squad also began to garner attention as sophomore David 

Maier became the team's leading scorer with three goals and two 

assists for eight points. Junior Matthew Haefner's GAA of 0.49 was 

sixth best in the nation. He was named 

PS7 co-Player of the Week (9/30) and 

received an Ivy League Honor Roll 

nod (9/30) after recording his third 

shutout of the season. 

The Red and Blue's first Ancient 

Eight action saw the team improve its 

record to 6-1 after defeating both 

Cornell and Dartmouth. The victories 

helped the Quakers crack the nation's 

top-25 for the first time in 2002, reaching 

No. 21. Penn was also steadily 

moving towards the top spot in the 

Mid-Atlantic Region, jumping up three 

spots to second. 

Penn's second loss of the season 

Matt Haefner came in a double-overtime heartbreaker 

against Lehigh, 1-0. With less than 

two minutes remaining, the Mountain Hawks snuck the ball into the 

upper left corner of the net to bring an end to the Quakers six-game 

winning streak. 

The Red and Blue quickly rebounded from their second defeat of 

the season with a four-game winning streak, which included three 

shutouts (Columbia, Rutgers and Brown). The victories pushed the 

Red and Blue up to the top spot in the Mid-Atlantic Region, a first 

under Head Coach Rudy Fuller. The team also reached No. 14 in the 

NSCAA poll, the program's highest under Fuller. Haefner's GAA continued 

to fall, (0.40) with a save percentage of 0.923, garnering a new 

Penn record. He was also named to the College Soccer News Team of 

the Week, a first for Penn during the season. 

With three games left on the schedule and the Ivy League crown 

within the team's grasp for the first time in 22 years, the game against 

Princeton became more than a match for Ivy bragging rights. The 110- 

minute game resulted in a 0-0 tie and Haefner recorded his eighth 

shutout of the season, inching him closer to the Penn all-time record 

of nine shutouts in a single season. The tie clinched a share of the Ivy 

League title for the Quakers. 

Penn's final PS7 game of the season saw Haefner record his ninth 

shutout of the season with a 1-0 win over Saint Joseph's. Still on top

of the Mid-Atlantic Region, the Quakers turned their focus towards 

the final game of the regular season - Harvard. 

The Red and Blue netted their first and only penalty kick of the season 

in the game against Harvard but it was not enough to deter the 

Crimson. Harvard stormed back and won the game, 2-1, forcing Penn 

into a tie for first-place in the Ivy League with Dartmouth. However, 

because the Quakers defeated the Big Green earlier in the season, 

Penn received the automatic NCAA Tournament berth. 

The loss saw the Quakers slip in the national polls to finish the regular 

season ranked 16th, gaining respect in the process. Over the 

course of two seasons, Penn had gone from the bottom of the 

Ancient Eight to Ivy League Champions. 

Penn, who controlled the field throughout the season, showed its 

dominance off the field as well placing seven players (three first-team, 

one second-team and three honorable mentions) on the All-Ivy 

squad. Haefner, who had a record-breaking season, led the way for 

the Quakers, as he became the first 

player in program history ever to be 

named Ivy League Player of the Year. 

The seven honors were the most 

received in one season since Fuller 

took the reins of the program five years 

ago. 

The Quakers moved into postseason 

play on Nov. 23 in a game that would 

bring the season full circle. In the 

opening round of the NCAA College 

Cup, Penn faced the same team (Seton 

Hall) that handed them their first loss 

of the season. A penalty kick in the 

93rd minute gave Penn a 1-0 victory 

over the Pirates and advanced the 

Quakers to the second round of the 

NCAA Tournament for the first time in 

29 years. 

In what would be their final game of 

the season, the Red and Blue took on 

seven-seeded Connecticut on their 

home turf in the second round. 

Despite a valiant effort, Penn was overcome, 

4-0, by a combination of the 

Huskies' speed and the wintry conditions 

in Storrs, Conn. 

2002 Final Statistics 

As the season closed, Penn continued to garner respect, earning 

numerous postseason accolades. Haefner became the Red and Blue's 

first All-American in 19 years after being named third-team 

NSCAA/adidas Men's NCAA Division I All-America. He was one of 

only two Ivy League athletes to receive the honor. Haefner was also 

named to the All-Mid-Atlantic Region team along with teammates 

sophomore Erik Hallenbeck (second-team), sophomore Stephen 

Kroculick (third-team) and rookie John Rhodes (third-team). 

Four Quakers were named to the PS7 All-Star Team - Haefner, for 

the second-consecutive year, Rhodes, Kroculick and sophomore 

David Maier. Head Coach Rudy Fuller was named the Bill Harris PS7 

Coach of the Year for the second-consecutive year and he picked up 

Mid-Atlantic Region Coach of the Year honors from his coaching 

peers in the NSCAA. 

Showing their excellence in the classroom, the Red and Blue 

picked up their third-consecutive Team Academic Award from the 

NSCAA. The award is given to teams who have excelled on the playing 

field and post a team GPA over 3.0. Individually, senior Alex 

Maasry was named to the 2002 Verizon Academic All-America Team 

for District II and was named Academic All-Ivy. 

In 2002, the Quakers' drive and determination rewrote Penn soccer 

history and transformed the squad into a national powerhouse. The 

Red and Blue will return a strong nucleus in 2003, which should allow 

the Quakers to prove that they have the desire, ambition and budding 

talent to reclaim the Ivy title and make Penn a contender for years to 

come.

trustees signed the Declaration of 

Independence. 

• Eleven Penn alumni, faculty members 

and trustees signed the 

U.S. Constitution. 

• The Heisman Trophy is named 

after Penn football coach and Law School 

graduate John Heisman. 

• John B. Taylor, College 1907 and 

Veterinary School 1908, was the 

first black athlete to win an Olympic 

gold medal for the U.S. (1908). 

The University of Pennsylvania is indisputably one of America's finest 

universities. Its greatness lies not in its longevity, 

but in its culture and achievements. 

At Penn, you'll find a historic, Ivy League school with highly selective 

admissions and a history of innovation in interdisciplinary education 

and scholarship. You'll also find a picturesque campus amidst a 

dynamic city and a world-class research institution. 

Penn continues to carry on the principles and spirit of its founder, 

Benjamin Franklin: entrepreneurship, innovation, invention, outreach, 

and a pragmatic love of knowledge. Franklin's practical outlook 

has remained a driving force in the university's 

development. 

• Penn is the only school in the 

country to have at least one 

representative on every 

U.S. summer Olympics team 

since 1900. 

• The record nine gold medals 

Penn students and alumni won at the 

1900 Olympics has never been matched 

by another school. 

• College Hall is one of two 

buildings that cartoonist and Penn 

alumnus Charles Addams 

remembered when he drew the 

“Addams Family” mansion. 

• Dr. John Draper 

took the first photographs 

of the moon at Penn. 

• The Penn Relays is the 

world’s largest and oldest annual

Flexible Options 

Undergraduate students at Penn choose from an 

incredible array of courses. Our online course catalog 

(www.upenn.edu/registrar/register) makes that 

clear. What may not be immediately apparent, 

though, is the academic flexibility our programs permit. 

For example, double majors, dual-degree programs, 

and joint-degree programs enable students 

to pursue a second major in their own or another of 

Penn’s four undergraduate schools. 

Submatriculation, another option, makes it possible 

for undergraduates to begin graduate programs 

at Penn while completing their baccalaureate 

degrees. Other opportunities for individually tailored 

study include the option of initiating new 

courses, called preceptorials. Recent student-initiated 

preceptorials have included such offerings as 

Astronomy for English Majors, Ways of Etiquette in 

Japan, Australian and American Landscape Painting, 

Cyberspace 90210 and A Trip to Fallingwater. 

Admissions 

Penn is among the nation’s most selective and competitive 

universities. Students who apply for admission 

typically have outstanding records of academic and 

extracurricular achievement. About 95 percent of the 

students in each new class have ranked in the top 10 

percent of their secondary school classes. If you would 

like to receive additional information or an application 

for admission, please contact our Office of 

Undergraduate Admissions (215-898-7507 or 

www.upenn.edu/admissions). 

Students 

Undergraduates - 9,917; graduate and professional students 

- 8,996. Penn received a record-high 18,784 

applications for admission to the Class of 2006. Of 

those applicants, 3,946 or 21 percent, were offered 

admission, making the Class of 2006 the most selective 

in Penn's history and the institution among the 

most selective universities in America. About 43 percent 

of those accepted for admission to the Class of 

2006 are Black, Hispanic, Asian, or Native American. 

Women comprise 50 percent of all students currently 

enrolled. 

History 

Penn traces its origins to 1740, when a group 

of Philadelphians established a trust for the 

instruction of children in a charity school. In 

1750, Benjamin Franklin combined this trust 

with his Public Academy of Philadelphia, 

founded the year before. This institution, chartered 

in 1755 as the “College, Academy and 

Charitable School of Philadelphia,” became 

the first university in what is now the United 

States with the establishment of the country’s 

first medical school in 1765. In 1779, it became 

the first university in the country to formally 

bear the name. 

Bring It All Home 

One of the newest developments at Penn involves 

bringing first-year students, sophomores, juniors 

and seniors together in residential college houses. 

Of course, that in itself isn’t revolutionary, but this is 

— Each college house offers its members a point 

of contact with Penn’s growing system of academic 

support services called “The Wheel.” The Wheel 

provides residence-based support in mathematics, 

information technology and computing, writing, 

research and library resources. Available services will 

soon include other core academic areas as well as 

career planning and placement. Using new technology 

and the supportive environment of the college 

houses, the Wheel delivers services when and where 

students need them — typically in each student’s 

room and often late at night, when most University 

offices are closed.

Financial Aid 

We urge you not to let financial concerns 

deter you from applying to Penn. We 

make every effort to help meet students' 

financial needs, as illustrated by these 

facts: 

* Almost 60% of Penn undergraduates 

receive some form of financial assistance. 

* 80% of freshmen applying for financial 

aid for September 2003 received a needbased 

award. 

* The average financial aid award for 

entering aided freshmen in the year 2003 

was $25,411 (combination of grant, loan 

and work-study job). 

* Nearly 40% of Penn undergraduates are 

awarded need-based grant aid. 

* In 2003-04, Penn is committing over 

$65 million of its resources for grant aid 

to undergraduate students. 

* The University's "need-blind" admissions 

policy ensures that no one is 

denied admission because he or she 

requires financial assistance. Penn will 

meet 100% of your financial need as 

determined by Student Financial 

Services. 

Eligibility 

There is no arbitrary income cut-off for 

financial aid eligibility. Because each family 

is different and financial aid is determined 

by many factors, we encourage 

you to apply if you are concerned about 

your ability to pay. 

How Financial Aid is Determined 

Financial aid at Penn is awarded on the 

basis of demonstrated financial need as 

determined by Student Financial 

Services. Financial need is the difference 

between Penn's costs and the amount 

your family is expected to contribute 

(Educational Expense Budget - Family 

Contribution = Financial Need). 

Your need is determined from data you 

provide on your financial aid application 

and your parents' and your 2003 tax 

returns.The following are considered in 

calculating financial need: 

· family size 

· your income and assets 

· your parents' income and assets 

· number of family enrolled in college 

· extraordinary family circumstances 

Penn does not rely on the federally-calculated 

family contribution, but rather, 

carefully reviews all aid applications in 

order to allocate available aid resources 

as equitably and effectively as possible. 

Financial information from both parents, 

even if they are divorced or separated, is 

used to determine financial need. 

What is a Financial Aid Award? 

A financial aid award, also known as a 

"package," typically includes a 

federal work-study job, student loan and 

in most cases, grant. Penn participates in 

all federal assistance and state programs 

to provide students with a comprehensive 

financial aid program to meet 100% 

of your determined need. 

How to Apply for Aid 

Complete the College Board PROFILE 

application, Penn's Institutional 

Financial Aid Application and a Free 

Application for Federal Student Aid 

(FAFSA). Copies of your parents' and 

your 2003 tax returns and W-2 forms will 

also be required. Details are in the undergraduate 

admissions application. 

Notification of Financial Aid Award 

Penn will notify you of your financial aid 

award at the same time your admission 

letter is mailed, as long as you have met 

all application deadlines. Penn Plan materials, 

including current interest rates and 

program options, are also included at 

that time. Our goal is that you will know 

all of your financial options prior to the 

deadline for notifying colleges of your 

enrollment decision. 

Students and their families are also 

encouraged to contact Student 

Financial Services. For information on 

any aspect of paying for a Penn 

education, contact SFS at:

ade famous as the birthplace of “life, liberty 

and the pursuit of happiness,” 

Philadelphia offers more than cobblestone 

streets and historic landmarks. Cultural, culinary, 

artistic and ethnic treasures abound. 

Philadelphia was founded in 1682 by William Penn, 

an English Quaker. King Charles II granted him a 

parcel of land that included 1,280 acres between the 

Delaware and Schuylkill Rivers. For Penn, this was 

the beginning of a new colony based on religious 

freedom. 

Philadelphia’s history from 1774 to 1880 is linked 

to the American Revolution and the birth of a young 

nation. As the colonies grew, Philadelphia became 

the cradle of the nation’s burgeoning quest for freedom. 

The First Continental Congress met at 

Carpenter’s Hall in 1774. At the State House, later 

renamed Independence Hall, patriots declared their 

independence in 1776. Then in 1787, the 

Constitutional Convention was held at Independence 

Hall. A short time later, Philadelphia served as the 

fledgling nation’s capital from 1790 to 1800. Of 

course, the rest is history. The story of our nation’s 

birth is preserved at Independence National 

Historical Park and its brand new visitor’s center, in 

“America’s most historic square mile.” 

The fifth-largest city in the United States and the 

second-largest city on the East Coast, Philadelphia is 

at the crossroads of the Northeast and the mid- 

Atlantic states. With 1.5 million residents and another 

four million in the surrounding region, Philadelphia is 

a welcoming place, the hometown of comedian Bill 

Cosby, celebrated contralto Marian Anderson, actor 

and musician Kevin Bacon, Princess Grace of 

Monaco (first known as the silver 

screen’s Grace Kelly) and superstar Will 

Smith. 

Philadelphians enjoy the opportunities of the city 

— including international commerce, national touring 

theatre, over 27 accredited colleges and universities 

and eight professional sports teams — but take 

pride in the manageable nature of their hometown. 

There’s no better way to explore Philadelphia than 

on foot. Easily navigable streets and a host of eclectic 

neighborhoods make Philadelphia one of the 

greatest walking cities in the world. A true residential 

city, Philadelphia is home to fascinating architecture, 

history and culture. From cobblestoned alleys of 

colonial-era homes to grand boulevards lined with 

monumental landmarks, Philadelphia’s streets tell 

countless stories and provide character for this very 

diverse city. 

No street emits as much energy and flair 

as South Street, Philadelphia’s hip and trendy melting 

pot. Between Front and Sixth Streets, a party atmosphere 

prevails and the people-watching is as fun as 

the window shopping. All walks of the fashionably 

unfashionable come together in a variety of restaurants, 

cafes, bars and nightclubs. Far-from-conservative 

specialty stores, antiques and boutiques fill block 

after block with a smattering of name-brand retailers 

in the mix. Dining ranges from authentic Philadelphia 

cheesesteaks to sidewalk cafes and international cuisine. 

Philadelphia’s Avenue of the Arts is the region’s 

premier performing arts district, extending more than 

three miles along North and South Broad Street in 

the heart of Center City. Visitors from around the 

world are drawn to the vibrant strip by the impressive 

blend of opera, dance, jazz, symphonic music, classic 

drama and musical theatre. 

Between Broad and 19th Streets on Walnut Street, 

you’ll find fashionable and upscale retail shops and 

some of the finest cuisine Philadelphia has to offer 

along Rittenhouse Row, the most prestigious 

address in the city. Alfresco dining is the way to go, 

especially when you have a view of Rittenhouse 

Square, a beautiful public park designed as part of 

William Penn’s original city plan. Window-shopping 

is at its peak among the scores of galleries and 

shops, including high-end retailers and stores you’ll 

only find in Philadelphia. 

Philadelphia’s location along the East Coast also 

makes it easily accessible to New York, Boston, 

Baltimore and Washington, D.C., whether by train 

using Amtrak, or by air via the newly remodeled 

Philadelphia International Airport. Destinations within 

the city are also convenient from any dorm, apartment 

or house via SEPTA’s network of buses, subways 

and elevated trains. 

In recent years, Philadelphia has been named the 

"number one restaurant city," "America's friendliest 

city," and "the safest large city." In Philadelphia, you 

are at the crossroads of big city excitement and 

hometown hospitality where the promise of the 

future meets old world charm.

First Union Center - City Hall

The success of University of Pennsylvania athletic 

programs weighs largely on the academic progress 

of each student-athlete. In order to achieve excellence 

in all areas, Penn’s student-athletes are 

encouraged to utilize services available through 

its academic services program, which is coordinated 

by Rosemarie Burnett. 

The Office of Academic Services works to 

insure that all student-athletes maintain academic 

integrity while making steady progress toward a 

degree. To this end, study sessions, tutoring in 

large groups or on an individual basis and counseling 

are made available to every student-athlete 

at the University. A student-athlete who is successful 

in the classroom is one that is a successful 

player on the field. The commitment to academic 

and athletic excellence requires discipline, 

dedication and motivation. These are the same 

characteristics needed for a Penn student-athlete 

to succeed beyond the walls of this university after 

earning a degree from one of the most prestigious 

institutions in the country. 

Penn provides assistance with the student-athlete’s 

academic progress by working with the 

University’s support services to enable the student 

to excel academically. The Academic Services 

Office staff can provide valuable assistance with a 

wide variety of concerns including: 

• University procedures 

• Educational and career goals clarification 

• Time management 

• Referrals to University resources 

• General strategies for succeeding at Penn 

Academic Initiatives 

Earning a degree from the University of 

Pennsylvania is a distinguished honor that will 

remain with you for the rest of your life. Walking 

down Locust Walk as a part of the tradition of 

graduation is a memory that will last a lifetime. The 

Office of Academic Services acts as the link 

between athletics and other departments on campus. 

Through this program, Rosemarie Burnett 

and her staff: 

• Meet regularly with new students to discuss 

upcoming academic requirements, transition 

issues, time management strategies, etc. 

• Facilitate students’ career exploration. 

• Assist students with the selection of courses and 

major declaration. 

• Develop long-term academic plans. 

• Provide support for students with personal concerns. 

Grade -Tracking Program 

The Grade-Tracking Program is designed to monitor 

the academic progress of targeted student-athletes 

during the academic year. Student-athletes 

for this program include those on academic probation 

and those identified by their school eligibility 

officer, dean or coach. Information acquired from 

the faculty and deans is used as the basis of student-athlete 

referrals to the appropriate academic 

support service resources. 

CAAP 

Collegiate Academic Achievement Program 

The Collegiate Academic Achievement Program is 

designed to provide student-athletes with supplemental 

study and tutoring opportunities as well as 

to foster academic interaction with fellow studentathletes. 

Some of our CAAP tutors are current student-athletes. 

During the academic year, rooms in the Towne 

Building are reserved for advising and tutoring sessions. 

Workshops are conducted in the beginning 

of the term on strategies for succeeding at Penn. 

In addition, career and graduate presentations are 

organized during the academic year. CAAP sessions 

are held every Tuesday, Wednesday and 

Thursday evening from 7:30-10 p.m. 

Laptop Computer Program 

Laptop computers are provided to student-athletes 

for use while at an away competition or while participating 

in required practices and competition 

during vacation periods. The laptop computers (as 

available) may be used by any in-season varsity 

student-athlete whose participation in the next 

scheduled competition has been confirmed by his 

or her coaching staff. 

Faculty Mentors 

The Faculty Mentor program at the University of 

Pennsylvania provides an additional resource for 

enhancing the athletic and academic experience 

of our student-athletes. Faculty Mentors work 

with student-athletes, teams, coaches and administrators 

to provide academic advising to current 

student-athletes, serve as a resource for prospective 

student-athletes and foster relationships 

between athletics and the University community. 

Recognizing the value of intercollegiate athletics 

within an educational setting, faculty mentors are 

dedicated to encouraging a balance between the 

pursuit of both athletic and academic excellence. 

Rosemarie Burnett 

Assistant Director of Athletics 

Rosemarie Burnett is entering her sixth year as 

Assistant Director of Athletics. At Penn, Burnett 

serves as the Academic Coordinator for intercollegiate 

student-athletes and is the point person to 

academic offices in the undergraduate schools. In 

addition to meeting with students, she is the main
