WASHINGTON HUSKIES (4-4) vs. 

UCLA BRUINS (5-3) 

Huskies Try to Get Back 

on Track Against Bruins 

By Jim Daves 

Coming off back-to-back road losses to USC 

and Arizona State, Washington (4-4, 1-3) 

returns to Husky Stadium this 

Saturday for a Homecoming showdown 

with UCLA (5-3, 2-2), a team 

that knows how it feels to have its 

back against the wall. 

Entering last week’s home game 

with Stanford, the Bruins had 

dropped back-to-back games with 

Oregon (31-30) and California 

(17-12). 

Want to add a little more adversity? 

UCLA starting quarterback Cory 

Paus suffered a broken ankle 

against the Golden Bears and backup 

signalcaller John Sciarra was 

also injured during the game. That 

forced the Bruins to take the field 

last week against Stanford with true 

freshman Matt Moore behind center. 

On the first drive of the game, 

Stanford was forced to punt, but 

regained the ball on a fumble by 

the Bruins’ return man. Six plays 

later the Cardinal was in the endzone 

and took a quick 8-0 lead.

Marquis Cooper’s nine tackles for loss have sparked a 

Husky run defense that is allowing just 2.4 yards per 

carry, the lowest UW opponent average since 1991.

HUSKIES Gameday 3

Continued from page 3 

How did the Bruins react to the situation? 

They rode the strong running of tailback Tyler 

Ebell and the accurate kicking of Nate Fikse 

(five field goals) to run away with a 28-18 victory. 

“Our guys were down by 15, and they might 

have bellied up right then,” said UCLA head 

coach Bob Toledo. “They stayed in there and 

worked hard.” 

While the youthful Huskies have struggled 

this year they can certainly relate to the Bruins’ 

approach. Washington’s players have continued 

to work hard and the much-maligned defense 

showed significant improvement in last 

Saturday’s loss at Arizona State. 

The Husky defense limited the Sun Devils to 

just 45 rushing yards and held ASU’s high-flying 

passing game to only 184 yards. A week earlier 

Sun Devil quarterback Andrew Walter had 

blitzed Oregon’s secondary for a Pac-10 record 

536 passing yards. 

Most teams have been able to move the ball 

on the Huskies by passing against an inexperienced 

Washington secondary, which included 

true freshman Nate Robinson as a starter at cornerback 

last week. Allowing 277.9 passing 

yards per game, the Huskies are second to last 

in the Pac-10 in that statistical category. 

The run is another story. 

Washington’s front four and linebackers 

have been tough to gain ground against. The 

Huskies lead the Pac-10 in rushing defense, 

allowing just 79.2 yards per 

game. That ranks as the fifth best 

in this week’s NCAA rankings. 

It is the fewest rushing yards 

allowed by a Husky defense 

since the 1991 National 

Championship team held opponents 

to just 67.1 yards per 

game. 

With several of the best running 

backs in the Pac-10 facing 

the Huskies over the next month, 

it will be interesting to see if 

Washington can continue to stuff 

the run, or if opponents might 

go away from their strong running 

games in an attempt to pass 

the ball versus Washington. 

Last year the Huskies went 

into their matchup with UCLA 

allowing 119 rushing yards per 

game. Bruin tailback DeShaun 

Foster blitzed Washington with a

school record 301-yard performance, the third 

highest total in Pac-10 history. 

The Huskies face a hot back this week in 

UCLA’s Ebell. In the victory against Stanford, 

Ebell carried the ball 39 times for 160 yards. 

While he is listed on the Bruins’ roster at just 5- 

9 and 170 pounds, Ebell’s resume is a heavyweight. 

The redshirt freshman has gained at least 

100 yards in each of UCLA’s last four games. He 

is the first Bruin 

freshman running 

back to ever accomplish 

that and is the 

first to have that 

many consecutive 

100-yard games 

since Skip Hicks put 

together five in a 

row in 1997. 

The California 

high school player 

of the year in 2000, 

Ebell was named the 

Wide receiver Reggie Williams is just 170 yards away 

from becoming the Huskies’ career receiving yards 

leader. 

National High 

School Athlete of the 

Year by the National 

High School 

Coaches Association 

that same year. That 

award is considered 

the Heisman Trophy 

for prep players. 

While the Bruins decided to keep things 

simple last week for Moore in his first start, 

they do like to throw the ball, averaging 249.6 

passing yards per game. Moore completed just 

seven passes in 19 attempts last week, but he 

averaged more than 20-yards per reception and 

did not throw any interceptions. 

Craig Bragg, who led UCLA in receiving last 

year as a freshman, tops the team again this 

season with 39 catches for 652 yards and seven 

scores. Tab Perry has 27 catches for 539 yards 

and Mike Seidman has 26 receptions for 424 

yards. 

On the other side of the ball the Bruins can 

create problems for Washington’s passing game. 

UCLA is ranked 13th nationally in pass defense 

in terms of the NCAA’s efficiency rating. The 

Bruins have allowed just 184 passing yards per 

game, the best mark in the Pac-10 this season. 

UCLA has allowed opponents to complete 

just 47.8 percent of their passes and given up 

just eight passing scores all season. The Bruins 

cornerback tandem of Ricky Manning and Matt 

Ware, a converted free safety, may be the best 

combination of pass defenders in the conference. 

With their backs against the wall, the 

Huskies hope this is their week to overcome 

adversity and get back into the win column. 

Something the Bruins have already learned to 

do.

Already No. 1 

Junior quarterback Cody Pickett is having an unprecendented season in terms of his passing statistics. 

Washington, well-known for producing NFL quarterbacks, has never seen the prolific numbers 

that Pickett is posting this season. Only eight games into his junior year, Pickett has already set a new 

single-season passing yards record with 2,811 this year (surpassing Cary Conklin’s 2,569 in 1989). 

Pickett broke Conklin’s mark in the season’s seventh game. Now with 5,226 career yards, Pickett is 

only 517 yards shy of the UW career passing yards record of 5,742 (Brock Huard). Pickett also has a 

shot at the Pac-10 single-season passing record, especially with the 12-game schedule this year. Pickett 

must throw for 827 yards (an average of 206.8 per game) to break the conference record of 3,637 

yards, set by Washington State’s Ryan Leaf in 1997. Pickett’s 2,811 passing yards this 

season already rank No. 18 (tied) in Pac-10 history, and he’s only 122 yards away 

from the all-time top-10. Last week vs. ASU, he broke Steve Pelluer’s 1983 Husky 

record of 213 completions. Pickett now has 228. 

Washington-UCLA Ties 

Washington head coach Rick Neuheisel is a graduate of UCLA, having spent five 

seasons with the Bruins including the 1983 season, when he led UCLA to the Rose 

Bowl, where Neuheisel picked up MVP honors after beating Illinois. Neuheisel also 

spent one season (1986) as a volunteer assistant at UCLA before becoming a fulltime 

assistant from 1988-93. Several other Husky coaches have also coached at 

UCLA. Tim Hundley was a linebackers coach for the Bruins for six seasons (1990- 

95), Steve Axman was the offensive coordinator for two years (1987-88), and Bobby 

Hauck was a grad assistant in Westwood in 1990-91 before serving as assistant 

recruiting coordinator in 1992. UCLA head coach Bob Toledo was an assistant at 

UCLA in 1994 and 1995, which put him on the same staff as Hundley those two years. Bruins assistant Mark Weber and Hundley were also members of the 

same coaching staff at Oregon State from 1987 to 1990. Washington’s roster includes 28 Californians, mostly from the southern part of the state. Several 

regular contributors among the Huskies’ roster are from the greater L.A. area: C Todd Bachert (Mission Viejo), CB Sam Cunningham (Westchester), CB 

Derrick Johnson (Riverside/Notre Dame), DE Anthony Kelley (Alta Dena/Muir), CB Chris Massey (Moreno Valley), DT Josh Miller (West Covina), WR 

Patrick Reddick (Newbury Park), TB Chris Singleton (Fontana) and DT Jerome Stevens (Oxnard). Husky redshirt freshman quarterback Casey Paus is the 

younger brother of injured Bruins starting QB Cory Paus. The Bruins’ roster no longer includes any players from the state of Washington.

Tough After Turnovers 

While Washington has turned the ball over 

four more times than its opponents this year 

(14 to 18), the Huskies have been much 

more successful turning turnovers into points 

than have their opponents. In fact, the 

Huskies have scored 10 

times after their 14 takeaways, 

and two of their 

missed opportunities 

came on a missed field 

goal and a blocked field 

goal. A third came on 

the game’s final play vs. 

Arizona, and thus did 

not present a chance to 

be converted into a 

score. In the meantime, 

UW opponents have 

scored seven times on 

18 turnovers – six 

touchdowns and one 

field goal.

HUSKY PROFILE / ELLIOTT ZAJAC 

by Mason Kelley 

t was a warm, sunny afternoon in the 

friendly confines of Husky Stadium, as 

Elliott Zajac and his fellow Huskies prepared 

to wrap up their first fall scrimmage 

in preparation for the season-opening 

game with Michigan at the Big House 

in Ann Arbor. 

Thing were moving along briskly until Kevin 

Ware laid a crushing block on defensive lineman 

Manase Hopoi, knocking him onto Zajac’s 

right ankle. All was silent as the senior offensive 

guard lay on the turf clutching his leg. 

“I thought I was done for the season,” Zajac 

says. “I thought I would have to fight with the 

NCAA for a sixth season, which is virtually 

impossible. Luckily that 

didn’t happen.” 

The threat of a 

career-ending injury 

prompted Zajac to reflect 

on his experience with 

the game he loves. 

It should have started 

in Little League, but even 

as a child, Zajac was 

deemed too big to play. 

“The first time I ever touched pads and a 

Elliott Zajac 

helmet was my freshman year in high school,” 

he says. 

From the day he arrived at West High in 

Bakersfield, Calif., people could tell that Zajac 

was a player. After his sophomore season, Zajac 

transferred from smaller West to larger 

Bakersfield High School in a concerted effort to 

earn a college scholarship. 

“BHS was always the dominant school in the 

area, and West High was on the downside,” 

Zajac says. “I took two buddies with me, and 

two other guys from West transferred to different 

schools.” 

Making the move to Bakersfield High 

brought with it some tough times for the Zajac 

family, which was criticized by the media. Innerdistrict 

transfers were a hot-button issue in 

Bakersfield, and Zajac was one of the first kids 

to do it. 

“We did it for football,” says Elliott’s mother, 

Donna. “West High was not performing on the 

field. They had been good in the past but we 

knew he would get better coaching at 

Bakersfield. It was the best chance that he had 

to get a scholarship.” 


At 6-foot-5 and 310 pounds, and capable of bench-pressing more than 500 pounds, Zajac 

is a formidable force on the field. 

Also factoring in the Zajacs' decision was 

the experience of Elliott's older sister, Andrea, 

who was having to pay her own way through 

college. 

“My sister never got a chance to get a scholarship,” 

he says. “She graduated high school 

early and when she went to college, she paid 

her own way. In her eyes, I have gotten things a 

little bit easier, even though I’ve earned it, 

because I am on a full-ride. I want to get the 

most out of my chances here and do it for her.” 

Andrea insists that having to pay for her own 

college tuition has not left her with any grudges 

towards her brother. 

“I really enjoy going to see his games,” she 

says. “He is turning into a really good man. I 

am very proud of his maturity. He has really got 

his head on straight. He understands that there 

is another step if he is unable to play football at 

the next level.” 

Zajac played well enough in high school to 

earn the scholarship he sought, with several 

Pac-10 schools expressing interest. He wanted 

to get out of California, though, which eliminated 

many of the Pac-10 powers. 

“I made my decision between Washington 

and Oregon, and I chose Washington because it 

is the evil empire,” he says. “Everyone hates UW 

and I like that.” 

Since arriving on campus, Zajac has fallen 

in love with the weight room, which has turned 

him into one of the strongest Huskies ever to 

come through the program. 

“He is a great kid,” says Husky strength 

coach Pete Kaligis, “a kid that has dedicated 

himself to this place. That is how our relationship 

has been built. He will live and die in here. 

This is what has made him a great player. He 

has done so much, I can’t say enough about the 

Continued on page 8

ELLIOTT ZAJAC 


guy.” 

Zajac gives much of the credit for his success 

in the weight room has to Kaligis and former 

strength coach Bill Gillespie. 

“Pete Kaligis has become like a brother to 

me,” Zajac says. “He always takes care of me. 

He stretches me out before practice, and stays 

late to work with me after practice. I just really 

thank God that he is willing to work that hard 

with me.” 

Zajac loves lifting so much, in fact, that he 

prefers his accomplishments in the weight 

room to anything he has done on the field. 

“I have squatted 733 pounds, I can bench 

press 505, and I have cleaned 401,” he says. “I 

am not a one-lift guy. I like to move around. I 

love the weight room and the competition in the 

weight room.” 

Flash back to Aug. 17, 2002. Zajac is lying 

on the field, clutching his broken ankle. The 

wait for the x-ray results seems interminable, 

but when the news comes back, it’s good — 

the break is not as serious as originally feared. 

Zajac misses the Huskies’ season-opener at 

Michigan, but returns to the field a month later 

— six weeks after the injury — for the Pac-10 

opener with Cal. 

“It feels great to be back,” he says. “It sucks 

that I had to come back to a loss, but we fought 

valiantly. I think once the team gets on track 

and we find our identity things are going to 

work out really well.” 

Now back in the lineup, Zajac can stop reminiscing 

about the past, and look forward again 

to the future, and the final games of his collegiate 

career. 

“I want to try to be first-team All-Pac-10,” 

he says. “I think that would be a huge accolade. 

I obviously have had a little setback and I have 

a little catching-up to do.” 

No one has a better sense of Zajac’s importance 

on the line than Husky center Todd 

Bachert, who doubles as Zajac’s roommate. 

Zajac was voted a team 

captain despite an injury 

that kept him off the field 

for the season’s first four 

games. 

“(Dan) Dicks did a good job filling in, but it 

is nice to have him back,” Bachert says. “We 

were a little off when he first came back but we 

are starting to mesh a little bit better. He is really 

important to the offensive line. He is a good 

leader, and he is intense.” 

Every year, the team votes on whom they 

think is fit to lead the team both on and off the 

field. This season, Zajac was voted by his peers 

as one of four team captains, an honor he takes 

quite seriously. 

“It is hard, because you don’t want to yell 

and scream at guys,” he says. “You have to 

define your own way of leading, because now 

you have been voted a leader by your teammates. 

Guys look to me in the huddle to find 

motivation, so I have got to stay focused and 

keep everybody rolling.” 

Given all he has been through, and all he 

has accomplished, it would seem that Zajac 

needs to say little to be an inspiration to his 

teammates. 


Zajac is the lone senior on an 

offensive line that boasts one 

junior and three sophomores.

HEAD COACH 

When Rick Neuheisel attended the 1998 Rose Bowl, to be 

inducted into its Hall of Fame, he took the time to enjoy the 

moment and bask in the gala and pageantry of the college 

football game known simply as “The Granddaddy of Them All.” 

As he watched the shadows creep over the Arroyo Seco, and the 

sun disappear into the western horizon, he turned to his wife, Susan, 

and said, “We’ve got to get back here someday.” 

It happened sooner than he expected. 

Three years later Neuheisel was back in the Rose Bowl, hoisting 

the championship trophy above his head to the delight of 40,000 

Husky fans after Washington had dispatched Purdue’s Boilermakers 

34-24. 

After quarterbacking UCLA to a 45-9 victory against Illinois in the 

1984 Rose Bowl, being inducted into the Hall of Fame, and coaching 

the Huskies to their seventh Rose Bowl championship, Neuheisel will 

long be considered one of the Rose Bowl’s favorite sons. 

Neuheisel prefers to deflect the attention for Washington’s ascension 

back to the top of the college football ranks over the past three 

seasons. He will be the first one to credit his players and coaching 

staff for making the commitment to return the Huskies to dominance. 

When he first arrived in Seattle in January of 1999, Neuheisel 

challenged the Huskies to forego any feeling-out process with a new 

staff and simply make a commitment to winning. 

Head coach Rick Neuheisel signals in a play during the the 2001 season. 


The results speak for themselves. During his first three years as a 

Husky, Neuheisel’s teams have placed second, first and second in the 

Pac-10 race. Washington has been ranked in the Associated Press 

poll for every game during the past two seasons. The Huskies have 

made two trips to the Holiday Bowl and one showing in the Rose 

Bowl under Neuheisel. 

Last year’s team posted a 8-4 record that included six wins at 

Husky Stadium to extend the Huskies’ current home winning streak 

to 14 games. A young Husky squad faced five teams that were ranked 

in the final Associated Press Poll and picked up wins against three of 

those opponents. 

Neuheisel’s second Husky squad, the 2000 team, posted the first 

10-win season since the 1991 Huskies went 12-0 en route to the 

national championship. It was Washington’s first Rose Bowl title in 10 

years and its first Rose Bowl appearance since 1992. 

The 2000 Huskies were a remarkable team. Washington trailed in 

eight of its 11 wins, showing incredible resilience and heart, not to 

mention strategy, in pulling off five consecutive fourth-quarter comebacks 

in a row. 

For his efforts, Neuheisel was listed as a finalist for coach of the 

year by several different media outlets. 

In 1999, his first season as the head football coach at Washington, 

Neuheisel accomplished something that none of his predecessors 

achieved. He guided the Huskies to a 7-5 record, including an invitation 

to the 1999 Culligan Holiday Bowl, becoming the first UW coach 

to take the team to a bowl game during his inaugural season. 

Husky football fans and casual sports followers alike have quickly 

embraced Neuheisel for the spark he has added to Washington’s storied 

football tradition. As a public speaker, he is in high demand. 

Neuheisel has spoken at numerous fundraising events and generated 

lofty contributions with his charismatic speeches and penchant for 

innovative fundraising ideas. 

Neuheisel took over the Washington program in January of 1999 

after serving as the head football coach at Colorado from 1995 to 

1998. His six-year coaching record now stands at 59-24 (.711). 

Washington is the second head coaching position for the 41-year 

old Neuheisel, who spent seven seasons as an assistant coach prior to 

securing the Colorado job. He worked six years at his alma mater, 

UCLA, under his college coach Terry Donahue, and was an assistant 

coach for one season on Bill McCartney’s staff in Boulder. He was 

named the head coach at Colorado on Nov. 29, 1994. 

At Colorado, Neuheisel compiled a 33-14 (.702) record and was 

3-0 in postseason bowl games. All three of his bowl games were 

against Pac-10 Conference opponents. He had 20 wins in his first two 

seasons as a college coach, which tied for the fourth-most by a firsttime 

college coach in the Division I-A modern era. Both of those 

Colorado teams finished in the top-10 of the national polls. 

Neuheisel had a number of “firsts” 

while coaching the Buffaloes: 

• He became the first first-year Colorado coach to take a team to 

a bowl game. 

• The team’s 10 wins in 1995 were the most ever by a first-year CU 

coach. 

• The Buffaloes’ No. 4 ranking in the USA Today standings and No. 5 

ranking in the final Associated Press poll were the eighth-highest 

rankings ever for a first-year coach. 

• Neuheisel’s 10 wins his first year tied for the fifth-most by a rookie. 

• The 1996 Colorado team set a school record by winning 10 

consecutive road games.

• The 1997 Buffalo team produced three All- 

Americans, including Butkus Award winner 

Matt Russell. 

• He is only the fourth coach to guide his first 

two teams to a pair of 10-win seasons. 

The road that led Neuheisel into coaching 

was an interesting, if not a unique one. After 

finishing his college career with a spectacular 

performance in the 1984 Rose Bowl in which 

he was named the game’s Most Valuable Player, 

he graduated from UCLA in May, 1984, with a 

bachelor’s degree in political science. 

Neuheisel had a solid 3.4 grade point average, 

the highest of all graduating football seniors, 

and was named Academic All-Pac 10. He won 

the Jack R. Robinson and Paul I. Wellman 

awards from the school to honor his academic 

excellence, and also earned an NCAA postgraduate 

scholarship as he aspired to attend law 

school. Neuheisel was inducted into the Rose 

Bowl’s Hall of Fame in 1998. 

He played two seasons (1984,1985), with 

the San Antonio Gunslingers of the United 

States Football League. Following the 1985 

USFL season (which was over by the end of 

summer), he decided to use his NCAA scholarship 

award and enrolled in law school at 

Southern California. The following summer, he 

joined the UCLA staff as a volunteer coach, 

specifically to tutor Troy Aikman on the UCLA 

offense. Aikman matured under Neuheisel’s 

tutelage, and the two remain close friends to 

this day. 

In 1987, Neuheisel played in the National 

Football League. He suited up for three games 

for the San Diego Chargers (starting two), and 

still holds a team record for completion percentage 

in a game (81.8, going 18-of-22 for 

217 yards and a touchdown at Tampa Bay). He 

completed 40-of-59 passes in those three 

games for 367 yards and one touchdown, and 

added another touchdown rushing. Another claim to his short-lived NFL fame 

is that he is the last player to rush for a one-point conversion, running in a 

muffed PAT attempt at Cincinnati. This is forever a trivia answer, with the NFL 

now sporting the two-point conversion. 

He closed out the season with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, dressing for 

two games, but never getting the chance to play. He wore the same number at 

Tampa Bay (No. 7) that he wore for San Diego. 

Neuheisel would again return to his alma mater, but this time in the 

capacity of a full-time assistant coach in charge of the quarterbacks, which he 

would coach for the next two seasons before switching to receivers coach in 

1990. 

While an assistant at UCLA, Neuheisel continued his studies in his pursuit 

of a law degree. He graduated from the University of Southern California 

School of Law in 1990 with his juris doctor degree. He would be sworn into 

the Arizona State Bar Association in May of 1991, and the Washington, D.C., 

Bar in March, 1993. 

Neuheisel began his collegiate playing career as a walkon at UCLA, holding 

for kicker John Lee, and eventually battled Steve Bono for the starting 

quarterback job by his senior year. He secured the starting job four games 

into the regular season and quarterbacked the Bruins to the Pac-10 championship 

in 1983, earning honorable mention All-Pac 10 honors in the 

process. He was named the Most Valuable Player in the 1984 Rose Bowl 

when UCLA beat Illinois, 45-9. In that game, Neuheisel completed 22-of-31 

passes for 298 yards and four TDs, including a pair to Karl Dorrell, who later

UNIVERSITY PRESIDENT DR. RICHARD L. MCCORMICK 

Richard L. McCormick became the 28th President 

of the University of Washington on September 1, 

1995. Educated as a historian, McCormick had a 

highly successful career as a faculty member and scholar 

before moving into academic administration. During his 

first six years at the UW, his leadership has been felt in 

almost every area of the University’s work. 

McCormick’s top goal as UW President is to preserve 

and enhance the academic excellence of 

one of the nation’s best public research 

universities. This means recruiting and 

retaining outstanding faculty, investing in 

programs of teaching and research for 

the future, and obtaining the resources to 

fulfill these goals. McCormick’s leadership 

contributions include the University 

Initiatives Fund, a program of budgetary 

reallocation for new, interdisciplinary 

opportunities; Tools for Transformation, 

a program for supporting innovative transitions in the 

academic units; and a new emphasis on undergraduate 

involvement in research and other forms of experiential 

learning. McCormick has traveled extensively in 

Washington to reach out to citizens across the state, 

strengthened the UW’s ties with K-12 schools and community 

colleges, and provided leadership for increasing 

the diversity of the UW’s faculty, staff and students. 

From 1992 to 1995 McCormick served as Provost 

and Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs and as Executive 

Vice Chancellor at the University of North Carolina at 

Chapel Hill. Prior to that, he was Dean of Arts 

and Sciences at Rutgers University from 1989- 

92 and Chair of the Department of History at 

Rutgers from 1987-89. 

McCormick received his B.A. in American 

Studies from Amherst College in 1969 and a 

Ph.D. in History from Yale University in 1976. 

He began his teaching career at Rutgers as an 

assistant professor of history in 1976 and was 

promoted to associate professor in 1981 and 

to professor in 1985. President McCormick is 

the author of three books and numerous articles on 

American political history. In 1985 he held a prestigious 

John Simon Guggenheim Foundation Fellowship. 

McCormick is actively involved in the work of a 

number of national and international education organizations 

including the Association of American 

Universities; the Association of Pacific Rim Universities; 

the American Association of Colleges and Universities, on 

whose Board of Directors he serves; and the Business- 

Higher Education Forum. He is also involved in several 

local and regional organizations including Seattle’s 

Alliance for Education; the Seattle Community 

Development Roundtable; and the Greater Seattle 

Chamber of Commerce, on whose Board of Trustees he 

serves. McCormick is a member of the Board of 

Directors of the Advanced Digital Information 

Corporation. 

McCormick is married to Suzanne Lebsock, a professor 

in the UW’s history department. Lebsock also held a 

Guggenheim Fellowship and is the author of many scholarly 

articles and two books, one of which won the 1985 

Bancroft Prize for the best book in American History. She 

recently held a MacArthur Foundation Fellowship, sometimes 

called a “genius” award. McCormick and Lebsock 

have two children, Betsy and Michael. 

DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS BARBARA HEDGES 

When it comes to recognition, Washington athletic 

director Barbara Hedges would prefer that the 

spotlight fall on Husky student-athletes. Still, it is 

hard not to acknowledge her accomplishments. 

Hedges has built the Husky athletic program into one 

of the most successful in the nation in a variety of ways. 

During the past decade, Washington’s athletic teams have 

enjoyed unprecedented success. The Husky program is 

also recognized as a leader in gender equity, community 

service and outreach programs and Student-Athlete 

Support Services. 

Most recently, Hedges has focused on improving 

Washington’s athletic facilities by more than $100 million. 

Her hard work has not gone unnoticed by her peers. 

In 1999-2000 Hedges was named the NACDA/Continental 

Airlines Athletic Director of the Year for the NCAA 

Division I West Region. She was presented the Honda 

Award of Merit and the Seattle/King County Sports and 

Events Council named her their MVP of the Year Award 

Winner. 

There is a chalkboard in Hedges’ office filled with 

inspirational messages, quotations and philosophies provided 

by her staff and visitors. One of her passages reads, 

“Hope is not a strategy.” It is very appropriate. The successes 

for Washington’s athletic programs during 

Hedges’ tenure that have earned her so many acknowledgements 

have been forged in hard work, planning and 

a commitment to excellence, not just wishful thinking. 

The past few years are dramatic proof that Hedges’ 

approach to building Washington’s overall athletic program 

into one of the best in the country have been successful. 

Many of those successes have not been measured 

in wins and losses. 

Washington is currently in the second phase of its 

highly-successful “Campaign for the Student-Athlete” that 

has helped to generate several major capital improvements 

on the Montlake Campus. In November of 2000 

the newly renovated Bank of America Arena at Hec 

Edmundson Pavilion opened to rave reviews. The facility 

also provides the Husky volleyball and women’s gymnastics 

teams one of the best collegiate venues on the West 

14 HUSKIES 

Coast. The Arena’s expanded lockerrooms, training 

room, equipment room and new breakout meeting 

rooms benefit the entire athletic department. 

The Arena is also home to numerous community 

events including high school championship tournaments 

and graduation ceremonies. 

The project also provided a home for the new $1 

million Husky Hall of Fame that opened in the fall of 

2002. For the first time ever, Husky fans and campus visitors 

have the opportunity to relive 

Washington’s rich athletic tradition with an 

exhibit room dedicated to documenting 

over 100 years of achievements. The Hall 

of Fame spans the entire length of the west 

end of Bank of America Arena. 

During September of 2001 Washington 

opened the $29 million Dempsey Indoor 

multi-purpose practice facility. With over 

100,000 square feet of competition space, 

Washington’s student-athletes have the 

nation’s finest multi-purpose practice setting 

for year-round training purposes. 

In 2000, Hedges’ relationship with the NFL’s Seattle 

Seahawks resulted in a $1 million gift towards the installation 

of a FieldTurf playing surface in Husky Stadium. 

Washington became just the second major college football 

program in the nation to play on the surface that has 

won rave reviews from players on both the collegiate and 

professional levels. 

In 2001 Washington added a new FieldTurf practice 

field on the east end of Husky Stadium. 

Still to come are stadium projects for the new soccer 

and baseball fields and a renovation of the Conibear 

Shellhouse. 

It seems like Hedges’ workload is never ending, but 

that is a reflection of her commitment to making the 

Washington program one of the best in the nation. The 

results have been proven on the field of competition. 

In just her first year on the job, in 1991, the Husky 

football team posted a perfect 12-0 season by defeating 

Michigan in the Rose Bowl and winning the national 

championship. 

Over the past six years the Husky women’s crew 

team has won at least one NCAA event title and captured 

back-to-back team titles in 1997 and 1998, and again in 

2001. During the past five years the Husky softball team 

has proven to be the single-best athletic team in a town 

that features professional teams in baseball, football, 

men’s basketball and women’s basketball, reaching the 

College World Series five of the last eight years. 

In 2000-01, five Husky squads — men’s and 

women’s soccer, football, women’s basketball 

and women’s crew — won Pac-10 

Conference titles, and nine of the 23 Husky 

teams earned final rankings in the top-15 

nationally in their respective sports. 

Under Hedges’ direction the Husky golf, 

baseball and tennis programs have emerged 

on the national scene. Men’s soccer, women’s 

rowing and softball have all been ranked No. 

1 in the nation during the past few years. 

Hedges’ efforts in gender equity have 

made Washington one of the national leaders 

in providing equal opportunities for both male and 

female student-athletes. In December of 1997, The 

Chronicle of Higher Education cited Washington as “the 

only Division I-A institution with an undergraduate 

enrollment that was at least 50 percent female to have 

achieved substantial proportionality in both scholarships 

and participation.” 

More important than just championships, under 

Hedges’ guidance Washington has become one of the 

national leaders in participation for student-athletes and 

compliance. Last season over 650 student-athletes competed 

for Husky teams — the most in the Pac-10. 

Hedges received her bachelor’s degree in physical 

education from Arizona State University in 1963 where 

she was honored as the University’s outstanding physical 

education major while also being named to Who’s Who 

in American Colleges and Universities. She received her 

master’s from the University of Arizona in 1971. 

Hedges was born August 23, 1937, in Glendale, 

Arizona. She and her husband, John, have two grown 

children, Mark and Gregg.

HUSKY PROFILE / WOMEN’S CREW 

The Huskies’ national-championship varsity four, seen here at the 2000 Windermere Cup, was reunited this fall for the Head of the 

Charles Regatta. 

by Lisa Krikava 

n the early hours of the morning, 

when it is still dark and most people 

are sleeping, the members of the 

University of Washington rowing team 

rise groggily from their beds and troop 

down to the boathouse for their 6:30 a.m. practice. 

As the first bright rays of the sunrise illuminate 

the water, these dedicated rowers are 

already hard at work. 

Most mornings mark just another typical 

practice, but for the first few weeks of October, 

these early morning practices have taken on a 

new meaning for Carrie Stasiak, Adrienne 

Hunter, Lauren Estevenin, Heidi Hurn and Anne 

Hessburg. These five Husky rowers are preparing 

to race at the Head of the Charles, the 

largest rowing race in the United States. 

The Head of the Charles Regatta, which 

takes place in Cambridge, Mass., is one of the 

largest two-day rowing events in the world. It 

was established in 1965 as a “head of the river” 

race, similar in tradition to rowing races held in 

England, and is generally three miles long. 

Boats race against both each other and the 

clock, starting sequentially, approximately fifteen 

seconds apart. Winners of each race 

receive the honorary title of “Head of the River” 

or, in this case, “Head of the Charles.” 

Although the University of Washington 

women’s crew is among the best collegiate programs 

nationwide, with a pair individual NCAA 

championships to its credit in 2002, the 


Huskies have not raced at the Head of the 

Charles in more than 10 years. 

“Traditionally, we don’t go because it’s not 

cost-effective,” says 2001 National Crew Coach of 

the Year Jan Harville. “It doesn’t fit into our race 

schedule because it’s too early in our season.” 

The Huskies do try to attend other larger 

events whenever possible. One event the UW 

frequents is the Henley Regatta in England, but 

due to NCAA restrictions, they are only allowed 

to go once every four years. With another trip to 

Henley still off in the distant future, Harville 

wanted to find other options for her program. 

“I was looking for different opportunities 

and the Head of the Charles seemed to be the 

best fit,” she says. “It’s a fun and exciting race 

to participate in.” 

Fun is not the only reason for racing, however. 

“I want to go and represent not only UW, but 

also the West Coast schools in a race that traditionally 

has been dominated by East Coast 

schools,” says Stasiak, the team Commodore. 

“Rowing is often thought of as a sport that is 

owned by the East Coast and I want to show 

them what we have out here in the west.” 

Stasiak, Hurn, Hunter, Estevenin and 

Hessburg have a successful history together. As 

freshmen in 2000, the five were undefeated in 

the women’s novice eight and went on as a varsity 

four to capture the NCAA championship. 

Continuing to be successful throughout their 

sophomore and junior years, the five were 

reunited in 2002 in the varsity eight, where they 

again went undefeated en route to an NCAA 

crown. 

“I’m really excited to get back in the boat 

with these four,” says coxswain Hessburg. “We 

had such an amazing freshman year, and now to 

be back together three years later is going to be 

great.” 

The Head of the Charles has a notoriously 

difficult course. Situated on a river with a current, 

boats have to steer under and around five 

bridges, sharp turns and narrow sections where 

it is impossible to pass without veering offcourse. 

With a borrowed boat and oars from the 

Harvard women’s team, the Huskies will be 

starting the race in the middle of the pack, surrounded 

by their competition. Although head 

races are against the clock, it can become very 

intense on the water when two boats fight for 

position on the course. 

“There are going to be a lot of boats that 

will try to keep us from passing them,” says 

Hessburg. “It’s going to be a battle out there.” 

All are confident, however, that the Huskies 

will be contenders at the finish line. 

“We definitely want to do well,” says 

Harville. “In terms of results and what they 

mean, this race is not going to be a big indicator 

for how our season is going to go. I’m not 

expecting this to be our peak performance, 

especially three weeks into school, but obviously 

we are going to put it all out there and do 

our best.” 

Husky fans expect nothing less from a team 

remains among the best, year after year.

With the stinging memory of a 23-6 loss to Michigan in the 1981 Rose Bowl as motivation, the 

Huskies entered the 1981 regular season determined to right what had gone wrong the 

previous season. A 9-2 regular season, including a 13-3 win over third-ranked USC and a 

23-10 win over the 14th-ranked Washington State Cougars earned the Huskies a trip back to 

Pasadena in 1982, and a shot at revenge against the Big Ten Conference. 

Washington entered the game against Iowa as an underdog for 

the fourth time in as many bowl games under Don James, and 

for the fourth time, the Huskies ignored the odds. 

Sparked by the 142-yard, two-touchdown performance of 

game MVP Jacque Robinson, and a trio of interceptions by Ken 

Driscoll, Vince Newsome and Derek Harvey, the Huskies routed 

Iowa 28-0 for the fourth of seven UW 

Rose Bowl titles all-time.

UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA AT LOS ANGELES 

UCLA: One of the Nation’s Premier Universities 

Albert Carnesale 

President 


Dan Guerrero 

Athletic Director 

UCLA’s Powell Library is one of the original campus structures. 

As one of the nation’s premier universities, 

UCLA has come so far, so fast in its rise to 

the top tier of institutions of higher education. 

From its celebrated faculty to its high-achieving 

students and distinguished alumni, UCLA’s 

College of Letters and Science and 11 professional 

schools are committed to advancing the common 

good through research, teaching and active participation 

in the communities they serve. Uniquely 

positioned at the crossroads of the world’s 

economies and cultures, UCLA combines outstanding 

intellectual achievement with an innovative, 

entrepreneurial style and a deep sense of 

civic responsibility. Some of the university’s more 

notable recent achievements include: 

Faculty, Students & Alumni 

UCLA faculty have been awarded Nobel Prizes 

two recent years: biochemist Paul Boyer in chemistry 

(1997) and pharmacologist Louis Ignarro in 

medicine (1998). Among faculty there have been 

three other Nobelists, nine National Medals of 

Science recipients and hundreds of Guggenheim 

Fellowships, Fulbright Awards and other academic 

distinctions. UCLA educates more students than 

other university in California and was the most 

sought-after institution in the nation for this fall’s 

freshman class. Each year at UCLA, more than 

2,000 undergraduates participate in the Student 

Research Program, working one-on-one with 

world-renowned scholars as they discover and create 

new knowledge. UCLA’s alumni are bright stars 

on the world stage. They include leaders of industry 

and commerce. Oscar, Grammy, Tony and 

Emmy winners. Philanthropists and public servants. 

Olympians and professional athletes. Educators, 

engineers, bankers and astronauts. Founded in 

1934, the UCLA Alumni Association serves more 

than 75,000 members with a comprehensive array 

of services, programs and activities. 

Books & Technology 

The UCLA Library is ranked among the top 10 

academic research libraries in North America 

with holdings of nearly 7.5 million volumes. From 

the birth of the Internet at UCLA 30 years ago to 

today, where more than one million cyber-travelers 

pass through key Internet home pages each 

month, UCLA continues to be a leader in 

resources for learning. UCLA is nationally recognized 

for developing ground-breaking computer 

services for undergraduates and was the first university 

to have a Web site for every undergraduate 

student. The university provides an innovative, online 

tool called “My.ucla.edu,” which provides a 

Web page tailored to each student’s academic 

needs. 

Bob Toledo 

Head Coach 

Outreach & Community Service 

From its founding, UCLA has been an integral 

and contributing part of the greater Los Angeles 

community. Outreach programs and volunteerism 

are as much a part of UCLA as academics and 

research, with hundreds of UCLA-sponsored programs 

providing a wide range of opportunities. 

Nearly 30 percent of UCLA’s undergraduates volunteer 

for these programs, including tutoring 

youths, adults and incarcerated youths; addressing 

health and educational needs of underserved 

communities; combating poverty and homelessness; 

aiding the elderly and disabled; and providing 

legal, social, medical and educational assistance 

to community residents. 

Through academic outreach, UCLA works with 

K-12 schools throughout Los Angeles to help 

greater numbers of students prepare to compete 

successfully for college. UCLA also is partnering 

with community colleges 

to increase the number of 

underrepresented students 

transferring to the university. 

Additionally, UCLA faculty, 

researchers and students 

provide leadership 

and public service in 

health care, law, economic 

development, social welfare, 

urban planning, public 

policy, arts and the 

environment. Most academic 

departments have 

major research projects, field studies or student 

internships that directly effect people’s lives in Los 

Angeles, the state and the nation. 

Health Care 

Each year more than 300,000 patients from 

Southern California, the U.S. and around the 

globe come to the world-renowned UCLA Medical 

Center for treatment, while thousands more area 

residents receive care through a network of primary 

care offices and community outreach health 

programs. The four schools in the medical enterprise 

are medicine, dentistry, nursing and public 

health. The medical center has been ranked as 

the best hospital in the West by U.S. News & 

World Report for 11 consecutive years. 

Groundbreaking research is constantly taking 

place in the Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer 

Center, the Gonda (Goldschmied) Neuroscience 

and Genetics Research Center and in many other 

centers and laboratories on campus. 

Arts 

A diverse array of public arts programming 

makes UCLA the leading arts and cultural center 

of the West. More than 500,000 people regularly 

attend arts events including theater, music, opera 

and dance performances, lectures, poetry readings, 

exhibitions, film screenings, and media arts 

that are presented by UCLA’s two professional arts 

schools. Check the web sites at www.arts.ucla.edu 

and www.tft.ucla.edu for more information. 

Lifelong Learning 

Another prime example of UCLA’s connecting 

with the community is through UCLA Extension, 

one of the nation’s largest divisions of continuing 

higher education, offering more than 4,500 

courses each year in diverse fields of study. 

The university conducts guided walking tours 

and distributes self-guided tour maps. For further 

information, call (310) 206-0616 or check out

HUSKY PROFILE / KEVIN WARE 

by Steve Hitchcock 

he temperature is 100 degrees — OK, 110 

degrees if you factor in the humidity. 

Kevin Ware rises from his bed in his hometown 

of Spring, Texas, and smiles. What a 

beautiful day for a workout. 

“I was born in San Diego, and my parents 

made the move to Texas, that was basically where I was 

raised,” says the 6-foot-3, 255-pound Husky tight end. “I 

love Texas to death when all is said and done.” 

In the state of bigger and better, George W., and the 

Texas Longhorns, it may be a bit confusing as to how 

Ware ended up in the great Northwest, instead of one of 

the many storied football programs of the Lone Star state. 

True, too, is the fact that the University of Washington primarily 

recruits players from the West Coast. 

So how did this gem of a player 

pick the Huskies? 

“It was a personal choice,” 

Ware says. “I knew this was ‘Tight 

End U,’ and I had my heart 

focused on playing tight end. I 

knew this was probably the best 

place for me to go. I made the 

Kevin Ware 

trip up here and loved it, and I’ve 

loved it ever since.” 

Just one of three Texas natives 

on the Huskies’ 2002 roster (joining senior linebacker 

Houdini Jackson and freshman defensive back Scott 

Ballew), Ware’s assessment of the Huskies’ tight end history 

is certainly accurate. The past six UW starters (and 

one back up) at the tight end position have gone to the 

pro ranks, and two — Mark Bruener and Ernie Conwell 

— have started in the Super Bowl. The Huskies’ history, 

though, and the implications for Ware himself, are furthest 

from his mind on game day. He is more concerned 

with blocking the oxen on the opposing defensive line. 

“It’s a tough position, because you’ve got to hang in 

there with the big boys,” he says. “When you’re messing 

around with the 300-pounders, you’ve definitely got to 


buckle the chin straps up a little tighter and get ready to 

go. I’ll always have that mind set as a tight end: block 

first and catch second; that’s just how I’ve always been. 

Catching balls and getting your name in the paper has 

always just been a bonus for me.” 

This year, that bonus has come practically every week. 

After catching only eight balls in his first three years on 

the field, Ware has made a significant impact as a senior 

with four touchdowns in the team’s first seven games, 

including one in the Big House amidst 108,000 cheering 

Michigan fans, and a pair of scores against Idaho. 

“The fun part of this game is to go out there and see 

how you do against some of the top guys,” Ware says. 

Continued on page 42 

Ware’s four touchdowns 

in the season’s 

first seven games 

equal the most by 

any Husky tight end 

since 1986.

KEVIN WARE 


“You get to go out there and whup their head 

around a little bit, and that feels really good.” 

Ware started out playing football in the peewee 

ranks, and although he has settled in nicely 

at the tight end position, it isn’t necessarily 

where he thought he would end up. 

“I remember one day back when I was in 

elementary school and I was at lunch,” he says. 

“I saw kids coming to class with their little football 

pants and little jerseys on and it looked 

interesting. I thought, ‘What are these guys 

doing?’ I talked to my dad, and said I wanted to 

try it. I was a big kid, so at first I played fullback.” 

Although football is practically a religion in 

Texas, Ware wasn’t sure he wanted to play in 

the South. The transition from Texas to Seattle, 

though, wasn’t easy. 

“The first year was tough,” he says. “Seattle 

is a long way from home, so I couldn’t just get 

up and leave. I had to grow up fast. I could talk 

to my parents every day if I wanted to, and just 

hearing their voice was very comforting. You’re 

faced with different issues that force you to 

grow up in a hurry.” 

Ware found it difficult to make friends in the 

dorms at Washington, and thus made the decision 

to join a fraternity, Delta Tau Delta, a route 

rarely taken by members of the football team. 

“I didn’t like the dorms, it just wasn’t the 

place for me,” he says. “I had a good friend at 

the fraternity who said it was just a different 

experience, a lot of cool guys. I went to the 

house and met a lot of cool people, people I 

now consider life-long friends.” 

The time commitments for both football and 

the fraternity made for long days, which made a 

third factor — school — that much tougher, 

and at the same time, that much more rewarding. 

“School was the biggest challenge,” he says. 

“In high school, you could easily get by, but 

here you’ve got to study your books. Teachers 

aren’t going to just give you grades. You’ve got 

to have the mindset that you have to go to 

school every day and do your readings. It’s 

something I had to adjust to. I know a lot of 

guys who go elsewhere where school isn’t a big 

deal for them. This being one of the top institutions 

in the country, you’ve got to have your 

head in it. Getting an education from this school 

is definitely going to help me prosper in life.” 

As his freshman year drew to a close, Ware 

found himself headed in all the right directions, 

and today he finds himself on top of the tight 

end world. With success on the field and in the 

classroom, it would be easy for Ware to become 

cocky and look toward a future in the NFL. 

Looking beyond this year, though, is something 

the tight end tries to avoid. 

“I want to finish school and concentrate on 

what I have on my plate right now,” he says. “I 


Despite just one season as the Huskies’ full-time starter, Ware has already cracked the 

UW’s top-10 in receptions by a tight end. 

don’t want to get to ahead of my skis. I just 

want to keep going out there and playing the 

game I love, and keep doing well. I want to 

make sure I get my degree. Hopefully I can go 

to the professional ranks, but if not, I’ll have my 

degree, and start my life from there.” 

If the commitment and hard work Ware has 

put into college thus far is any indication of 

how he will do in the future, the years ahead 

look exceedingly bright. Of course, Ware would 

never say that himself. 

“I’ve got a lot of friends and family watching, 

and I don’t want to disappoint people,” he 

says. “I love the game, and to come to UW and 

be a tight end is motivation for myself, to keep 

the tradition alive, and to make this school look 

great. 

“It keeps me going.”

Founded in 1861, the University of Washington is one of the foremost 

institutions of higher education in the nation, richly combining its 

research, instructional and public service missions. 

Its internationally acclaimed faculty includes five Nobel Laureates and 

the winner of the 1990 National Book Award for Fiction. Washington is 

part of an elite group of research universities whose contributions to 

American life are unique because they generate the basic knowledge upon 

which practical innovations are based. 

The UW student body on the Seattle campus totals about 37,000, with 

an undergraduate enrollment of approximately 26,800. The UW also has 

campuses in Bothell and Tacoma, designed primarily for upper division 

(junior and senior) undergraduates and master’s level graduate programs. 

Total enrollment at these campuses is about 3,600. 

For more than 30 years, the university has been among the country’s 

top five institutions in the dollar value of federal research grants and contracts 

awarded to its faculty. In 2000, the most recent year for which that 

data has been collected, the UW ranked second. Total grant and contract 

activity for 2001 exceeded $700 million. More than 80 percent of the university’s 

grant and contract funds come from federal agencies. Research 

contributes directly to the educational goals of graduate and professional 

students, as well as to those of undergraduates. 

Instruction and research at Washington are supported by a library system 

that is one of the most extensive in the nation, consisting of five major 

units and 18 branches, as well as libraries at UW Tacoma and UW Bothell, 

together housing more than five million volumes. In addition to offering 

instruction in more than 100 academic disciplines, the university offers a 

spectrum of continuing education courses that advance technical and professional 

skills and provide opportunities for personal growth and enrichment. 

Washington has 17 major schools and colleges: Architecture and Urban 

Planning, Arts and Sciences, Business Administration, Dentistry, Education, 

Engineering, Forest Resources, The Graduate School, The Information 

School, Law, Medicine, Nursing, Ocean and Fishery Sciences, Pharmacy, 

Public Affairs, Public Health and Community Medicine, and Social Work. 

About 90 percent of the University’s undergraduate students are state 

residents, although instructional programs draw students from every 

region of the country and overseas. 

Most freshmen entering Washington are in the top third of their high

school graduating classes. In 2001, the average incoming freshman boasted 

a 3.63 high school grade point average and an 1,159 SAT score. 

Beyond its academic and service missions, the UW has a strong economic 

impact on Washington and the Pacific Northwest. 

With about 20,000 employees, Washington is the secondlargest 

employer in King County. Washington operates the 

University of Washington Medical Center and Harborview Medical 

Center, which annually provide more than 200,000 days of 

patient care and record more than 300,000 visits to their outpatient 

clinics. 

Washington also plays a critical role in attracting new business 

to the region. It provides these, and established businesses, 

with a steady stream of well-educated graduates and with highly 

skilled faculty members who assist business and industry in a 

variety of ways. 

The University of Washington in Seattle is located on 703 

acres in the city’s northeast residential area, a beautiful setting on 

the shore of Lake Washington and Portage Bay. The majestic 

Cascade Mountains can be seen to the east and the Olympics 

loom to the west, while the western view includes downtown 

Seattle and Lake Union. The combination of this spectacular setting 

with buildings in both neo-Gothic and modern styles gives the 

campus a distinctive aura.

COMPLIANCE CORNER 

A Day in the Life of a Student-Athlete 

Many people look back on their school 

days and remember how much flexibility 

and free time they had. While many 

college students have additional responsibilities 

such as work and families, student-athletes also 

carry additional responsibilities and have 

numerous time commitments on a daily basis. 

Nationwide, student-athletes often voice concern 

about how to get it all done. How can they 

perform at their athletic peak, maintain their 

health, excel as students, take advantage of 

community outreach opportunities, and still 

have a life of their own? 

Due to these concerns, in the early 1990’s 

the NCAA member institutions adopted regulations 

limiting the number of games in a season, 

the length of the playing season, and the number 

of hours each day and each week that student-athletes 

can be required to participate in 

athletically-related activities. Those regulations 

divide each team’s season into two segments: 

one a declared playing and practice season of a 

specified length (144 days for most sports), 

A typical student-athlete schedule:

During the declared playing and practice 

season, student-athletes cannot be required to 

participate in athletically-related activity for 

more than four 

hours a day, or 20 

hours a week. 

Student-athletes 

must also receive at 

least one day off 

from all required 

athletically-related 

activities each

week. Outside of the playing and practice season 

only strength and conditioning activities are 

allowed and student-athletes cannot be 

required to participate in those activities for 

more than eight hours each week. During this 

time period, football student-athletes are also 

permitted up to two hours of film review within 

the permissible eight hours total. 

Although these regulations limit the time 

demands on student-athletes to some extent, it 

is not surprising that student-athletes must still 

make every effort, every day, to excel in the 

classroom, in the community, and in their chosen 

sport. 


HUSKY PROFILE / PAIGE MACKENZIE 

Mackenzie got off to a 

hot start in 2002 with a 

third-place finish at the 

season-opening New 

Mexico Inviational. 


by Mason Kelley 

here is nothing quite like 

being out on a golf course 

— few places that look as 

pristine can cause so much 

frustration. Golf is a game a 

patience, a craft that has to be 

refined with years of hard work and 

expert tutelage. 

Paige Mackenzie has spent much of 

her life on the golf course. In fact, her 

parents Hugh and Caren have been taking 

Paige and her brother, fellow Husky 

golfer Brock Mackenzie, out to the 

course since they were toddlers. 

“I got my first set of golf clubs when 

I was three and I just started chipping 

away with my parents,” Paige says. “My 

parents are not the type of high-pressure, 

overbearing sports parents, 

though. If I did not feel like playing, I 

would take my dolls along and play in 

the cart. When I wanted to, I could 

jump out for a hole or two and then I 

would get bored and jump back in the 

cart.” 

Over time, Mackenzie reached less 

for the dolls and more for the golf 

clubs, eventually becoming determined 

to play at the collegiate level. Her brother 

made the trek to UW a year before 

Paige, but that wasn’t a major factor in 

her decision to become a Husky. 

“I took visits to Oregon, Oregon 

State, and Cal,” Mackenzie says. “The 

fact that Brock was here was good, but 

we weren’t very close in high school; we 

didn’t get close until he left for UW. He 

may have had some influence, but I just 

wanted to be a Husky.” 

A native of Yakima, Wash., 

Mackenzie was intimidated as much by the balance of 

school and sports as she was by the transition from small 

town to big city. 

“My first quarter was really tough on me,” she says. 

“Golf took up so much of my time that there wasn’t much 

time left for school. I was a really good student in high 

school and I was used to devoting as much time as I 

needed to do well in school.” 

Having a year under her belt has helped Mackenzie in 

her development, both as a student and a golfer. Once she 

developed a routine and became more comfortable with 

her surroundings, it was smooth sailing. 

“There has been a huge difference in her game this 

year,” says head coach Mary Lou Mulflur. “The first year 

is so hard. It doesn’t matter how close or how far you are 

away from home. There is nothing that can prepare you 

for the rigors of athletics at this level. She is a completely 

different player from last year to this year.” 

That is not to say that Mackenzie did not have an 

impact on the team as a freshman. She competed in every 

tournament and was the top Husky finisher at the NCAA 

Championships at Washington National Golf Course in 

Auburn, Wash. 

“Paige had an immediate impact,” Mulflur says. “She 

wants to be the best player on the team. She is not cocky 

about it, she just wants to be the best no matter who she 

is playing with.” 

Now that Mackenzie has had a season to become 

acclimated to her surroundings, she has been able to 

draw more enjoyment from the game. 

“So far this season has been awesome,” Mackenzie 

says. “Our team has two second-place finishes. I am so 

excited that we have such a great team this year; this season 

is going to be fun. We are the deepest we have been 

in a long time.” 

Despite her the early success, Mackenzie remains critical 

of her game. She is not over-confident and does not 

allow herself the luxury of looking back at what she has 

accomplished. 

“It is hard to look at how far I have come because I 

can only see things I need to improve on, so I haven’t 

really thought about that too much,” she says. “I have so 

much more to work for and so much room to improve.” 

Mackenzie’s work ethic is so intense that it is even 

hard for coach Mulflur to believe. 

“She is a really hard worker,” Mulflur says. “I don’t 

know what Caren and Hugh did with those kids but neither 

one is afraid of hard work. They are not afraid to put 

in the long, lonely hours on the practice green or on the 

driving range that you have to put in to be successful.” 

Mackenzie has come a long way in her year and a half 

as a member of the Husky golf team, but has not let success 

go to her head. She knows what it will take for her 

to make it to the LPGA tour, and while that is still two 

years away, she can’t hide her desire to make it. 

“My goal right now is to turn professional after I finish 

college, so I’d better be one of the top golfers in the 

country,” she says. “I have to have a name that is recognizable, 

or else I am not going to make it.” 

With her talent and work ethic, Mackenzie is making 

sure that her name is not one that will be soon forgotten.

CAMPUS CORNER 

One of the Earliest Buddhist 

Manuscripts Acquired by UW 

Aproject that is fundamentally 

changing 

the way scholars 

look at the 

ancient world and the 

teachings of the Buddha 

has received a major addition. 

A birch bark manuscript 

from a Buddhist 

monastery, believed to 

have been written in the 

first or second century 

A.D., was recently 

acquired by the University 

of Washington Libraries 

and will become a key 

component of the Early 

Buddhist Manuscripts 

Project. 

Betsy Wilson, director 

of UW Libraries, says, 

“This acquisition ensures 

that this important manuscript 

is preserved and 

made available to generations 

of scholars to come. 

It will enable scholars to 

create new knowledge and 

understanding from this ancient text.” 

The manuscript is among the earliest 

Buddhist writings known to exist. A private collector 

who recently died owned the manuscript. 

The chain of possession from its location of 

origin to the collector is unknown. 

The manuscript consists of eight fragments 

of a scroll and is written in the Gandhari language, 

a derivative of Sanskrit. The style of 

script and the language suggest the manuscript 

comes from Gandhara, a region of what is now 

eastern Afghanistan and northern Pakistan. 

Gandhara was an early, vibrant center of 

Buddhism and occupied a pivotal role in the 

spread of Buddhism from India to Central Asia, 

China and the rest of East Asia. Some of the 

most influential schools of Buddhism in the first 

century were located in Gandhara. 

The clarity of the writing and the quality of 

the preservation of the new scroll are impressive, 

says Richard Salomon, UW professor of 

Asian Languages and Literature. In just a few 

weeks, the Early Buddhist Manuscripts Project’s 


Segments of the Buddhist manuscript recently acquired by the University of 

Washington. 

team of faculty and graduate students has managed 

to decipher nearly three-quarters of the 

text. The part that remains will yield its clues 

only grudgingly and over a long period of time, 

researchers say, and deciphering the text is just 

the first step in analyzing the information. 

Despite advances in digital technology, the 

ability to have the original manuscript on site is 

of great value, Salomon says. “There are still 

things you can determine by looking at the 

original manuscript that are impossible with 

even the best digital images.” 

If the UW had not purchased the manuscript 

it could well have gone back into a private collection 

and disappeared again from public view, 

Salomon says. The purchase was made possible 

by private donations. 

The UW manuscript comes from a branch of 

Buddhist scholastic literature known as abhidharma. 

It is a commentary, offering interpretations 

of the Buddha’s teachings. 

“The topic of this text, as in many early 

Buddhist writings, is the problem of suffering,” 

says Collett Cox, UW professor 

of Asian languages 

and literature. 

“This text is very exciting, 

because it is the earliest 

commentary that we’ve 

found. All other early texts 

have been extensively 

reworked. This is clearly 

in its ‘raw’ form. We can 

only speculate on how it 

was used, but it is possible 

that it was lecture outlines 

for teaching in the 

monastery. Buddhism was 

just moving from an oral 

tradition to writing. This 

manuscript will give us 

insight into how textual 

collections developed— 

not just how texts evolved 

over time, but how the 

monastic community used 

them. We will learn more 

about what early teachers 

thought was important 

about the history of 

Buddhism prior to that 

time, what they thought 

was worth passing on to future generations. 

We’re seeing a stage of development in the history 

of Buddhism of which just a few years ago 

we were completely ignorant.” 

The UW manuscript complements another 

group of manuscripts acquired by the British 

Library in 1994, which also is thought to come 

from Gandhara at around the same time. 

Salomon and the team have been at work for the 

past six years, trying to decipher the letters, 

words and sentences in that manuscript. So far, 

they have published three volumes analyzing portions 

of the text. Until the discovery of the British 

Library manuscripts, no Buddhist manuscripts of 

this type had been found in 100 years. 

The Early Buddhist Manuscripts Project is a 

partnership between the UW and the British 

Library. 

“Our work is only beginning to come out 

and make its way into the scholarly community,” 

Cox says. “We definitely will not complete 

the work of deciphering and analyzing the texts 

in our lifetime.”

HUSKY PROFILE / JEREMY PARK 

by Theresa Ripp 

When Jeremy Park toes the line on a cross-country course, he 

always knows what he wants to accomplish — he just doesn’t 

always expect it to happen. 

In 1997, as a junior at Klamath Union High School in 

Klamath Falls, Ore., everything Park wanted to accomplish in a 

cross-country meet actually happened. 

“I came into the state championships and wasn’t expected to finish 

even among the top-10,” Park says. “I had just come in fifth in the district 

meet. I don’t know how it happened, but I won State. It was incredible.” 

Now, as a senior on the University of Washington’s cross-country team, 

the unexpected has one more chance to happen again. 

Born in Los Angeles, Calif., Park and his parents, Tom and Edith, 

moved to Klamath Falls when he was five. Park participated in soccer, basketball 

and football. He did not become interested in running until his 

eighth grade P.E. class at Ponderosa Middle School. 

“I really enjoyed the cross-country section,” he says. “My teacher, 

Coach Delaney, made me go out for wrestling and track that year. That was 

the only year I did wrestling, but I have been running ever since.” 

Park had a stellar cross-country career in high school, running with 

the varsity all four years. Besides being the individual state champion in 

1997, he also captained his the cross-country squad to the state and district 

championships, and placed third at the state track championships in 

the 1,500-meter run during his senior year. 

“The best thing about cross-country is competing against other people,” 

says Park. “When I am running, I try not to think about running. I 

really don’t think about anything.” 

After enrolling at Portland State in 1997, Park was forced to think 

when the Vikings’ coaching staff was let go following his sophomore season. 

“I liked our current coach and would rather be able to choose my 

coach,” Park says. “I talked to Greg Metcalf at Washington. I had talked to 

him in past years and really liked him, so I transferred to Washington.” 

During the 2001 season, Park ran in Washington’s top-four at every 

meet. He ran second on the squad, 42nd overall, at the Pre-National meet 

in Greenville, S.C., helping the Huskies to an eighth-place finish. It is the 

life of a cross-country runner, though, that much of what you do occurs 

outside the collegiate sports spotlight. 

“I do wish that cross-country overall received more support,” says 

Park, “but at Washington, the cross-country team receives more support 

than at most schools. That is another reason I decided to transfer here.” 

Park ran third on the team at both the 2001 Pac-10 Championships 

and the 2001 NCAA West Regional meet, with respective finishes of 24th 

and 30th overall. 

“I haven’t really set any personal goals for the current cross-country 

season,” he says. “I really just want to help the team go to nationals. We 

have been on the bubble for a long time. It would be nice if we could just 

finally go to nationals as a team.” 

In addition 

to his crosscountry 

success, 

Park was the 

eighth-best 

finisher in the 

1,500 meters 

at the 2002 

Pac-10 Track 

Championships. 

Park is majoring in electrical engineering while at Washington, and 

plans to continue running after graduation to train for the 2004 Olympic 

trials. 

“It is important to always run for yourself first, and not worry with 

what other people want you to accomplish,” he says. “If you can figure 

that out, then you can do anything.” 

Park has one fan who doesn’t worry about his accomplishments. This 

fan just likes to watch her older brother run. 

“My younger sister Christina likes to watch me run, but doesn’t like to 

run herself,” Park says. 

Christina is nine years old, too young to remember her older brother 

running with their dog, Biff, in the hills and trails behind their house. Rain 

or shine, Park would run, thinking of things he wanted to accomplish, just 

not sure if what he wanted would happen.

HUSKY ATHLETICS 

A Tradition of Success on the Field and in the Classroom 

Husky Athletics is about young men and women competing on a national level athletically while succeeding academically at the 

University of Washington. This fall, 650 student athletes will don the purple and gold and compete for the Huskies on 21 

teams. The cost to recruit and retain world class student-athletes is high. In 2001-2002, Husky supporters invested $5 million 

in student-athlete scholarships. With the recent 16 percent increase in tuition, that figure will increase by $400,000 this year.

HELP A HUSKY STUDENT ATHLETE 

Because the athletic program is self-sustaining and does not receive state or University 

subsidies, this increased cost will need to be raised privately. 

We will be asking all Huskies to consider 

making a contribution specifically 

earmarked for scholarship support. 

HELP YOURSELF 

In addition to feeling good about helping 

Husky student-athletes, you will help yourself 

three ways: (1) This contribution is 100 percent tax 

deductible. (2) This contribution will count toward 

important Tyee Points for Tyee seat holders. These points will be added immediately and will affect 

your 2003 football and basketball seats. (3) Scholarship donors $5,500 and up will be invited to 

the annual Donor Appreciation Scholarship Luncheon and have a chance to meet the student-athlete 

they support. 

“Being at Washington has been a life-changing experience for me. 

My athletic scholarship has provided me the opportunity to explore 

new educational boundaries, and I will leave here a better person as 

a result. I will forever be in debt to Husky fans, who support the 

scholarship program.”
