Coach Billy Boykin's thoughts on<br />
the 2013 season:<br />
We are a very young team; one of the<br />
youngest teams in the country. We had<br />
a number of sophomores and we have<br />
added some freshmen. We have a group<br />
that is predominately underclassmen.<br />
Look at the view we had last year. We<br />
were undefeated in the A10 record<br />
season play. We were the number one<br />
seat in the A10 tournament. We had a<br />
win over the defending champs at their<br />
place during the season. We lost at the<br />
semi finals at the tournament. Look at<br />
the group that we return; we have 4<br />
kids returning who were named in all<br />
conference teams. I think we have a<br />
good young nucleus to build around.<br />
Take some of last year’s momentum and<br />
keep moving forward. That said we’ve<br />
also added some new faces that are talented that can help us from a production standpoint. When you have a<br />
young group you do lean heavily, even if you don’t have many, on your older kids; your seniors, juniors, your<br />
upperclassmen. So this year looking at the upperclassmen; they have been terrific. We are going to need to lean<br />
on them again heavily because we still are a young group. But we are still learning. I’m excited about the future.<br />
The next couple years I think the outlook is good.<br />

BILLY<br />
BOYKIN<br />
Head Coach<br />
3rd Season<br />
Davidson, 2001<br />
In the summer in 2010, a national search to find Charlotte's 16th head men's tennis coach led the 49ers to points<br />
far and wide before choosing a familiar candidate with conference ties in Billy Boykin. Boykin came to Charlotte from Atlantic<br />
10 Conference foe Richmond, where he had been the head coach for two years.<br />
In his first season at Charlotte in 2011, Boykin led the 49ers to a fifth-place finish at the conference championships<br />
and an 8-16 inaugural campign, placing a pair of student-athletes on the All-Conference lists.<br />
In 2012, Boykin guided the team to a 15-8 overall record and an undefeated season in Atlantic 10 Conference play.<br />
For the second time in school history, Charlotte earned top seed in the conference tournament. They tied for third in the<br />
tournament and placed a school record of four student-athletes on the All-Atlantic 10 team.<br />
Billy, the son of former head coach, Jim Boykin, who retired after 17 seasons,<br />
came to Charlotte in the midst of a tennis renaissance, as the 49ers unveiled<br />
the brand-new, state-of-the-art Halton-Wagner Tennis Complex in 2012, featuring<br />
office space, locker rooms, conference space, box seating a team lounge and a<br />
training room.<br />
"Billy brings a wealth of experience both as a highly rated collegiate player<br />
and as an experienced coach within our conference," said Director of Athletics<br />
Judy Rose.<br />
Boykin inherited a Richmond team that had come off of back-to-back fivewin<br />
seasons before taking the Spiders to 12 matches in his second season in 2010,<br />
its biggest total since 2005. The 2010 Spider team had the A-10 Most Outstanding<br />
Rookie Performer, Sebastien Fauchet, giving the team its first such honoree since its<br />
first year of A-10 membership in 2001. A lot of that team's success can be traced<br />
to Coach Boykin's recruiting class, which was ranked the 18th-best nationally for<br />
a mid-major school by tennisrecruiting.net that season.<br />
Prior to Richmond, Boykin was the men's and women's assistant coach<br />
at the College of Charleston. He was involved with all phases of the Cougars'<br />
nationally ranked tennis programs. Before Charleston, Boykin served for one year<br />
as the assistant coach at his alma mater, Davidson College.<br />
A native of Charlotte, Boykin received a B.A. in political science from<br />
Davidson in 2001. Coming out of high school, Boykin was the United States Tennis<br />
Association's #1 ranked junior player in the state of North Carolina and earned<br />
Davidson College's Dalton McMichael Scholarship for excellence in academics and<br />
athletics. While at Davidson College, Boykin served as team captain and finished<br />
undefeated in singles play during Southern Conference regular-season competition<br />
in 1999.<br />
Prior to coaching, Boykin served as a tennis professional at Charlotte's<br />
Olde Providence Racquet Club and worked as a financial analyst for a brokerage<br />
firm in Charlotte, NC.<br />

JESSE<br />
TARR<br />
Assistant Coach<br />
3rd Season<br />
James Madison, 2008<br />
After being named the Charlotte men's tennis assistant in the summer of 2010, Tarr became the choice for the women's tennis assistant in a dual role shortly thereafter.<br />
He enters his third season in his dual role with both programs.<br />
Tarr played an important role in the men's and women's teams combining for the third-best total win percentage across both programs in school history. Both 49er<br />
teams earned byes (the men were the top seed, while the women were seeded second) to the conference tournaments. The men's program earned a record number of<br />
all-conference selections, while the women's program had the school's first ranked doubles pair.<br />
Tarr came to Charlotte after a year as an assistant coach at William and Mary. After a standout career at James Madison, the native of Midlothian, Va., started his coaching<br />
career as a volunteer assistant under Greg Patton at Boise State, which finished No. 20 in the country at the end of the 2009 season.<br />
William and Mary tied the school record with 20 wins in 2010 and clinched the number-one seed in the Colonial Athletic Association for the first time in school history.<br />
The Tribe reached a ranking as high as No. 53 during the year and finished the season ranked No. 75. Three players were named first-team All-CAA in singles and doubles.<br />
Tarr served as the recruiting coordinator for the program, which received votes for the "Top Recruiting Classes" list at tennisrecruiting.net and was ranked No. 6 for<br />
"Top Mid-Major Classes" at the same website. Student-athletes Sebastian Vidal and Keziel Juneau were ranked as high as No. 19 in the nation in doubles, qualified for the<br />
main draw at the ITA All-American Championships and also qualified for the NCAA Doubles Championships. Juneau was the Atlantic Region winner of the Arthur Ashe<br />
Sportsmanship and Leadership Award and the Rafael Osuna Sportsmanship Award.<br />
Tarr's season at Boise State culminated in a NCAA Round of 16 appearance and a record of 24-9 in 2009, the second-best mark in school history. Included in the<br />
tournament run was an upset win over regional host and No. 14-seeded Alabama in the second round. The Broncos had three All-WAC singles players and two All-WAC<br />
doubles teams in 2008-09, including the WAC Player of the Year, Clancy Shields, and the Freshman of the Year,<br />
James Meredith. Shields finished the year ranked No. 24 nationally in singles and was named the winner of the ITA National Rafael Osuna Sportsmanship Award. Meredith<br />
also garnered ITA Mountain Region Rookie of the Year honors.<br />
At JMU, Tarr was a four-year starter, earning 110 total victories (combined singles and doubles) in his playing career and earned five All-CAA honors (four in doubles<br />
and one in singles). As a senior, he was named as a finalist for the James Madison University Athlete of the Year Award. During his junior season, Tarr was ranked No. 15<br />
regionally in doubles for the Mid-East Region with partner Mike Smith. Carrying over to the next year, Tarr and Smith earned a No. 46 national preseason ranking for the<br />
2007-08 doubles campaign.<br />
While a student at James Madison, he started the "Day with the Dukes" event as a way to give back to the community. Each year, Special Olympics athletes interact with a<br />
variety of Dukes athletes for a fun day on campus, including a home football game. Participants receive a tailgate lunch, have the opportunity to interact with football players<br />
at Bridgeforth Stadium, attend clinics with the basketball and soccer teams and one participant flips the coin before the football game. Approximately 60 Special Olympics<br />
athletes attend Day with the Dukes each year, a program that continues after his graduation. The Psychology Peer Advisory Group provides one-on-one buddies for the day.<br />
Also strong in the classroom, Tarr earned a CAA Commissioner's Academic Award in 2006 and 2008 as well as being named an ITA Scholar Athlete in 2006.<br />
Tarr earned his bachelors of science in psychology with a minor in athletic coaching from James Madison in 2008.<br />

JIM<br />
BOYKIN<br />
Volunteer Coach<br />
Former 17-year Head Coach<br />
Appalachian State, 1967<br />
Charlotte former head coach Jim Boykin has over 30 years of professional<br />
tennis teaching under his belt and a total of 451 career wins. After 17 seasons at the<br />
helm of the 49ers men's tennis program, he stepped down to retire, though he still<br />
works closely with the program alongside his son Billy. He amassed 200 wins at a<br />
head coach at Charlotte, the program's all-time winningest coach.<br />
"My father is my best friend. To be able to work with him everyday that’s<br />
definitely super cool. He has so much experience in tennis at every level. If it comes<br />
down to something technical, he’s the best technician of the game I’ve ever seen. He’s<br />
probably most valuable in that he’s been an educator for 45 years and to have his<br />
experience when we have things our players need to learn as they develop as people.<br />
That’s the number one thing he brings to the table. To have that as a volunteer coach<br />
is pretty outstanding. And then obviously his relationship with the guys, they love him.<br />
He enjoys it." Coach Boykin on having his father as Volunteer Coach.<br />
After taking the program to its first-ever conference championship match<br />
in 2006, the Niners again made history, this time by winning the conference championship<br />
for the first time in school history and advancing to the program's first-ever<br />
NCAA Regional Tournament. Boykin was named 2007 Atlantic 10 Coach of the Year,<br />
the only Niners coach to wear that honor.<br />
Roy Sichel became the first player in the program's history to earn Conference<br />
Player of the Year, earning that honor twice (2006 & 2007) and Freshman of the<br />
Year (2005) honors as well as the first player to play in the NCAA Singles Tournament<br />
(also doubling that feat in 2006 and 2007.)<br />
Boykin led Charlotte to unprecendented heights. Charlotte was ranked in<br />
the ITA Top 75 for the first time in 2000, finished a season ranked (57th) in 2001 and<br />
started a season ranked in 2002, all program firsts.<br />
Boykin arrived in Charlotte via junior college power Anderson, putting together<br />
a 12-year record of 251-77 and leading the program to two junior college national<br />
championships. He was twice named the National Junior College Coach of the<br />
Year, 1986 and 1987, and also earned South Carolina Coach of the Year and Wilson<br />
Intercollegiate Coach of the Year honors in 1986.<br />
In 1994, he was elected to the National Junior College Athletic Association's<br />
Tennis Hall of Fame. In the spring of 2000, he was elected into the Anderson College<br />
Athletic Hall of Fame.<br />
Boykin was the 1990 head coach of the now defunct Charlotte Heat of<br />
Professional Team Tennis and produced the league's rookie of the year, Trevor "Tank"<br />
Kronermann.<br />
A 1967 graduate of Appalachian State, Boykin earned a B.A. degree in psychology<br />
and served as an assistant coach under Jim Jones. He attended Furman from<br />
1960-63 and was a Southern Conference Singles Champion. He has had appointments<br />
as head tennis professional at Anderson Cardinal Racket Club, Charlotte Olde<br />
Providence Racket Club and Charlotte Country Club.<br />

UNIVERSITY CHANCELLOR<br />
7 years (2005-06 to present)<br />
Tennis<br />
A native of Oakland, California, Philip<br />
L. Dubois attended the University of<br />
California, Davis, where he graduated<br />
in 1972 with an undergraduate degree<br />
in political science, earning election<br />
to the Phi Beta Kappa and Phi Kappa Phi honor societies. He then<br />
earned master’s (1974) and doctoral (1978) degrees in the field from<br />
the University of Wisconsin-Madison.<br />
Dubois began his academic career in 1976 at the University of<br />
California, Davis. Over the next 15 years, he rose through the faculty<br />
and administrative ranks to full professor and held various administrative<br />
posts, including associate vice chancellor for academic affairs.<br />
In 1991, Dubois was recruited to UNC Charlotte, where he spent<br />
the next six and a half years as provost and vice chancellor for academic<br />
affairs. Dubois was credited with drafting a strategic academic<br />
plan, leading the development of the university’s first comprehensive<br />
campus-wide plan for information technology, and initiating programs<br />
to better serve nontraditional adult students. Under his leadership,<br />
UNC Charlotte also planned and launched its first doctoral programs.<br />
In 1997, Dubois was named president of the University of<br />
Wyoming. In that role, he led the development of comprehensive<br />
academic, support services, and capital construction plans for the<br />
campus; stimulated a growing volume of new capital construction<br />
projects and building renovations; expanded UW’s role in statewide<br />
economic development; and improved the recruitment and retention<br />
of students. During his eight-year tenure, state and federal legislative<br />
support increased significantly, while private gifts to the university<br />
more than quadrupled.<br />
He was honored in 2004 by the Council for Advancement and<br />
Support of Education (CASE) with its District VI Chief Executive<br />
Leadership Award.<br />
On March 18, 2005, Dubois was named UNC Charlotte’s fourth<br />
chancellor and assumed that role on July 15. In his first seven years,<br />
Dubois has focused his efforts on building the University’s visibility and<br />
support in the Charlotte region; long-range planning for an expected<br />
enrollment of 35,000 students; completion of key capital construction<br />
projects (including a major new building located in Center City<br />
Charlotte); improvement in the efficiency and effectiveness of critical<br />
business processes; and implementation of an intercollegiate football<br />
program starting in the fall of 2013.<br />
Dr. Dubois and his wife, Lisa Lewis Dubois, have three adult<br />
children: Logan, Taylor, and Ali. They are the first family to occupy<br />
the chancellor’s official campus residence, Bissell House.<br />

Woman’s Final Four, 1999 and 2000 NCAA Div. I Men’s Soccer<br />

NCAA Basketball Tournament rounds to Charlotte.<br />
Charlotte 49ers Director of Athletics Judy Rose is one of the most<br />
successful and well-respected Athletics Directors in the nation.<br />
At the time of her appointment in 1990, she was just the third<br />
female to be put in charge of a Division I program. In 1999-2000,<br />
she became the first female to serve on the NCAA Division I Men’s<br />
Basketball Committee. She served a five-year term (2000-2004) on<br />
that committee. She also completed a term as 2003-04 President of<br />
the National Association of College Directors of Athletics (NACDA)<br />
and was one of less than 70 university presidents and athletics<br />
administrators invited to NCAA President Mark Emmert’s Summer<br />
2011 Retreat.<br />
Chief among her accomplishments with the university is the<br />
systematic growth of the 49ers program. That growth will culminate<br />
with the unveiling of the 49ers football program in 2013.<br />
With the 49ers, she has overseen the 49ers moves from the<br />
Sun Belt Conference to the Metro Conference to Conference USA<br />
and onto the Atlantic 10 in 2005-06. She has overseen the 49ers<br />
growth into a program that is fully-funded at the NCAA level for athletic<br />
scholarships. She has helped develop nearly $50 million worth of<br />
athletic facilities which have enhanced playing venues, academic<br />
services, strength and conditioning programs, training and medical<br />
support to improve the experience of each and every student-athlete.<br />
With the completion of the football stadium that facility figure willl<br />
rise to nearly $100 million.<br />
She has been instrumental in attracting national sporting<br />
events to Charlotte such as the 1994 Men’s Basketball Final Four,<br />
the 1996 Women’s Basketball Final Four, the 1999 and 2000 Men’s<br />
Soccer College Cups as well as a variety of NCAA Men’s Basketball<br />
tournament rounds.<br />
The 49ers have enjoyed similar success in competition and the<br />
classroom. Since Rose became A.D., 14 of the school’s 16 athletic<br />
programs have either won a league title or been represented in NCAA<br />
play, or both. Prior to her stint as A.D., only two programs touted<br />
such success. Meanwhile, the athletic department now boasts a<br />
cumulative GPA of over 3.0 and Charlotte has won eight of the last<br />
14 A-10 Scholar-Athlete of the Year Awards.<br />
Along the<br />
way, Rose has<br />
reaped her share<br />
of awards, for professional<br />
success,<br />
contributions to the<br />
community and<br />
leadership.<br />

DIRECTOR
Charlotte<br />
Tennis<br />
On March 2, 1975, the idea of what is now<br />
the Atlantic 10 Conference was conceived. What<br />
started as an eight-school, men’s basketball-only<br />
affiliation has grown into a 16-university, 21-sport<br />
league that is universally hailed as one of the best<br />
conferences in the country.<br />
In 2011-12, the Atlantic 10 was proactive in<br />
navigating the sweeping conference realignment<br />
issues, adding Butler University and Virginia<br />
Commonwealth University, both of which began<br />
full membership on July 1, 2012. The league was<br />
declared the “winner” of conference<br />
realignment by several<br />
media outlets, arguably strengthening<br />
the league to its best-ever<br />
lineup with a record 16 members<br />
institutions. The additions were<br />
part of a five-year Strategic Initiative Plan that was<br />
adopted during the 2010-11 academic year.<br />
The 16 member institutions of the A-10 are<br />
united and strengthened by their diversity. Each is<br />
extraordinary in its educational mission, whether<br />
of a Catholic faith, a private university or a land<br />
grant institution. The varied pursuits of each member<br />
prove that there are many threads that weave<br />
the fabric for a great conference.<br />
The Atlantic 10 Conference, with a total population<br />
of over 82 million people within its geographic<br />
footprint of nine states and the District of Columbia,<br />
will crown champions in 21 sports this year,<br />
including the 16 sponsored by Charlotte: baseball,<br />
men’s and women’s basketball, men’s and women’s<br />
cross country, men’s golf, men’s and women’s indoor<br />
and outdoor track & field, men’s and women’s<br />
soccer, softball, men’s and women’s tennis, and<br />
women’s volleyball.<br />
The presidents and chancellors of Atlantic 10<br />
institutions, in conjunction with Atlantic 10 Commissioner<br />
Bernadette V. McGlade, have made a<br />
strong commitment to making the academic and<br />
athletics equation a successful one. The Atlantic 10<br />
Conference ranks fourth in number of teams publically<br />
recognized by the NCAA and fifth in overall<br />
Academic Progress Rate (APR) average among all<br />
32 Division I Conferences with a<br />
981 average. In all, 56 institutions<br />
were honored by the NCAA for<br />
outstanding APR scores. The<br />
Commissioner’s Honor Roll,<br />
honoring student-athletes with<br />
a 3.5 grade point average or better, listed 1,359 in<br />
the fall of 2011.<br />
The league sponsors Academic All-Conference<br />
teams in each of its sports and honors one studentathlete<br />
per sport as the A-10 Student-Athlete<br />
of the Year. Moreover, the Atlantic 10 provides<br />
four postgraduate scholarship grants to qualified<br />
student-athletes. Charlotte’s Macey Ruble captured<br />
the 2012 A-10 Male Student-Athlete of the<br />
Year award, becoming the eighth 49er (of<br />
a possible 14) to win either the Male or<br />
Female award. The Niners swept the pair<br />
of awards in 2010 and 2011. Ruble also<br />
won one of the four league postgraduate<br />
scholarships.<br />
