CAROLINA MEN’S TENNIS: 2006 ROSTER & SCHEDULE

2006 SEASON OUTLOOK: CAROLINA MEN’S TENNIS

If history is any indication the 2006 men’stennis season at the University of NorthCarolina should indeed be an exciting one.

Beginning with the 1989 season, the TarHeel men’s tennis program has had winningseasons in 15 of the past 17 years and hasearned an invitation to the NCAATournament in 13 of those 17 seasons.

It’s no coincidence that just a year after a1988 season in which Carolina finished 0-7 inACC dual matches Sam Paul would arrivethe in Chapel Hill as an assistant to headcoach Allen Morris and the UNC programwould move in a most positive direction in theprocess.

Eventually, Sam Paul took over as theCarolina head coach in 1993 after AllenMorris’ retirement from coaching. As thehead coach Paul has continued to shapeteams which annually produce winningrecords and earn NCAA Tournament bids.

Carolina has been a beacon of consistentexcellence during the 16 years Paul hasserved as an assistant and head coach butironically the seasons in the even-numberedyears have always produced results that area slight cut above the accomplishments inthe odd-numbered years.

There is probably no logical reason for thispattern other than the whims of fate. But ifthe trend holds true then the 2006 UNCmen’s tennis team could be a special squadindeed.

This team certainly has the makeup tomake such a stellar campaign a reality.Despite losing singles starters Geoff Boyd(No. 3) and Jonathan Janda (No. 5) to grad-uation, the Tar Heels enter the season as anexperienced team with a strong senior classof four talented individuals.

Three of the four members of the seniorclass have a strong likelihood to play at thetop three positions in the singles lineup soCarolina should present opponents with alineup that will be battle-hardened, cagy andveteran in its nature.

“Going into the 2006 season we are led bythree seniors who have played a lot duringtheir careers here so we know we have a lotof experience at the top of our lineup,” sayshead coach Sam Paul.

“Nevertheless, we know the ACC this sea-son is the best it has ever been on an overallbasis and certainly the most competitive topto bottom it has ever been. Four teams gointo the season ranked in the Top 15 in thenation and it is realistic that 11 of the 12teams could earn NCAA bids and end up asteams ranked in the Top 40.”

Further on down the lineup Carolina alsoreturns a pair of underclassmen who bothhave significant starting experience while anoutstanding freshman joins the squad and acast of second-year players will be right inthe thick of the intra-team competition toclaim a spot in the lineup.

This team is dead set on improving on theaccomplishments of the 2005 squad whichwere quite solid in their own right. The Tar

Heels played an extraordinarly high numberof close matches in 2005 with 10 of the last15 matches of the season being decided withthe winning team having only the four pointsnecessary to clinch the team win.

A little good fortune in some of those closematches and Carolina could have parlayed agood season into a great season.

That statement is not meant to diminishthe exploits of the 2005 squad in any man-ner. Overall UNC finished at 16-11 and in theprocess earned its sixth successive trip to theNCAA Tournament. In the finalIntercollegiate Tennis Association ranking theHeels came in at the No. 34 spot.

Carolina was tough to play both at homeand indoors as UNC compiled an 11-3 recordin both of those area. One of the highlightsof the season came in the Atlantic Coast

Conference Tournament when the Tar Heelsmade a strong run at a potential champi-onship.

North Carolina had finished the regularseason with a 4-6 mark in ACC dual matcheswith three of the six losses coming by razor-thin 4-3 margins. UNC tied for sixth in theACC standings and was seeded No. 7 in thetournament. In the opening round of thetournament the Tar Heels advanced bydefeating NC State 4-0. With the win UNCearned a chance to meet eighth-ranked Dukein the quarterfinals just nine days after theBlue Devils had thrashed the Tar Heels 7-0 atthe Cone-Kenfield Tennis Center in the regu-lar season meeting.

Carolina pulled off a stunning upset of theBlue Devils 4-2, UNC’s first win over Dukesince 1996 and the highest ranked opponentthe Tar Heels had beaten since 1994. In theprocess Carolina became only the secondteam in history seeded seventh or lower to

advance to the semifinals of the ACCTournament. UNC’s quest for the title endedthe next day with a 4-2 loss to eventualNCAA quarterfinalist Florida State in thesemifinals but that loss did not sully the out-standing effort of the team.

Despite the loss of two starters Carolinadoes return the kind of lineup which shouldbe able to breed a successful atmosphere.

UNC returns seniors Raian Luchici, BradPomeroy and Derek Porter. In 2005, thosethree players manned the No. 1, No. 2 andNo. 4 spots in the singles lineup and all hadoutstanding seasons. Luchici, who goes intothis season ranked fifth nationally by the ITAin singles, finished 25-15 in singles in 2004-05 and had eight wins over nationally-rankedopponents during the year. He also earnedan invitation to the singles phase of theNCAA Tournament.

Pomeroy had an outstanding season whileplaying with Geoff Boyd at No. 1 doubles.The duo finished the 2005 season with anoverall doubles ledger of 26-12. Pomeroyand Porter played primarily at the No. 2 andNo. 4 singles spots in the lineup last season,posting 18 and 21 singles wins, respectively.

Two other players with significant startingexperience who return to Carolina this yearare junior Sebastian Guejman and sopho-more Benjamin Carlotti. Guejman playedmuch of last season at No. 6 singles flightand ended the year with a 14-6 record.Carlotti spent most of his freshman year atthe No. 5 singles spot where he posted a sin-gles mark of 24-7, ranking only one winbehind Luchici for the most wins on team.Both Luchici and Carlotti finished the seasonranked by the ITA in singles with ratings ofNo. 56 and No. 109 respectively.

Much of the work in the preseason willcenter around the search to establish a No. 6player for the singles lineup and how to con-figure the doubles teams to maximum advan-tage.

Luchici and Pomeroy currently play at No.1 doubles and they are ranked No. 1 in thenation heading into the spring season afterreaching at least the semifinals of two nation-al ITA tournaments last fall. The rest of thedoubles lineup will be sorted out as the sea-son progresses.

There are a host of possibilities for the finalspot in the singles lineup. Both freshmanTaylor Fogleman and sophomore Will Plylerhave earned a shot at the spot with theirpractice work but coach Paul has sevenother returning letter winners who couldmake a serious run at nailing down the spotin the lineup.

“We’re very excited about the level of com-petition we are likely to face this year and welook forward to competing against teams ofthis calibre on a regular basis,” says headcoach Sam Paul. “One of the keys for us willbe to keep our team healthy. If we can dothat we feel we have a lineup that can com-pete against anyone in the nation.”

The University of NorthCarolina men’s tennis pro-gram is led by one of thenation’s best and brightestcoaches, Sam Paul, a four-time Atlantic CoastConference Coach of theYear selection, three-timeIntercollegiate TennisAssociation Mideast RegionCoach of the Year and three-time ITA National Coach ofthe Year finalist.

North Carolina’s tradition of excellence inmen’s tennis continues under Paul, now in his13th year as head coach of the Tar Heels and17th year overall as a coach at the University.Paul ranks as the fourth winningest coach in ACChistory in dual match wins in his career and issecond in UNC history in that category behindonly Don Skakle.

The 45-year-old native of Lancaster, S.C.,has been uniting the winning reputation of UNCmen’s tennis with his adroit skills for coachingand recruiting since he was named the headcoach in April 1993, making North Carolina one ofthe most respected programs in the nation. Heholds a career head coaching record at UNC of188-106, including a 67-31 mark in Atlantic CoastConference regular-season dual matches. Twicesince 2000 Paul has mentored student-athleteswho have won the Patterson Medal as Carolina’soutstanding senior student-athlete — Tripp

Phillips in 2000 and Nick Monroe in 2004.Besides their success on the court, Tar Heel

tennis teams under Coach Paul also excel in theclassroom. The UNC men’s tennis team had thehighest composite grade point average of anymen’s athletic team at Carolina during the 2003-04 school year and again during the 2004-05

school year.Paul is also the

only head men’s tenniscoach in the AtlanticCoast Conference tohave tutored four play-ers who have beenranked in the Top 500in the world in men’ssingles — DonJohnson (UNC Class of’90), David Caldwell(UNC Class of ’96),Tripp Phillips (UNCClass of ’00) and NickMonroe (UNC Class of‘04).

The late 1990s and early years of thisdecade were busy ones for Coach Paul as hetook on extra duties as personal coach for UNCalumnus Don Johnson during his magnificentruns in doubles at Wimbledon and the U.S. OpenIn that role, he became the only current collegecoach to coach a player ranked No. 1 in the worldin the ATP men’s doubles rankings. Paul accom-panied Johnson, who now serves as an assistantcoach for the Tar Heels, to a pair of Grand Slamtitles and an appearance on the U.S. Davis CupTeam.

Paul, who had been an assistant coach forthe Tar Heel program for four years from 1989-93, took over the reins from coach Allen Morris inMay 1993. In 2002, Paul directed his Tar Heelsto a 19-6 dual match record and the AtlanticCoast Conference championship, the 25th inschool history. Carolina has been invited to theNCAA Tournament in 13 of the past 14 seasonswhile Paul has been an assistant and head coachin Chapel Hill. Only once in Paul’s head coach-ing tenure have the Tar Heels failed to make theNCAA Tournament field.

Paul has been repeatedly rewarded for hiscoaching ability as he was selected the AtlanticCoast Conference Coach of the Year in 1996,2000, 2002 and 2004. The 1996 Tar Heels

amassed a 21-5 overall record,went undefeated in the ACCregular season at 8-0 and sawfive players complete individual20-win seasons. Senior DavidCaldwell received ACC Playerof the Year honors for the thirdconsecutive season and wonthe No. 1 singles title for thethird straight season — bothleague firsts.

The 2000 Tar Heels com-piled an 18-6 mark, reachedthe NCAA Tournament regionalfinals and had three playersearn ACC flight championshiphonors. Senior Tripp Phillipsearned All-America distinctionas he advanced to the NCAAquarterfinals.

In 2002, the Tar Heels hadone of their best seasons inrecent memory as UNC went19-6 overall against a brutal

schedule and won the ACC title for the first timesince 1992 with a stirring 4-3 championshipmatch victory over Georgia Tech. In 2004, UNCsurprised much of the college tennis world by ris-ing from a No. 50 preseason ranking to share theACC regular-season championship and earn theNo. 11 seed in the NCAA Tournament. The Tar

Heels finished 23-5 overall and hosted an NCAAregional for the first time since the field expandedto 64. Nick Monroe became the fourth NCAAsingles quarterfinalist coached by Paul, joiningRoland Thornqvist, David Caldwell and TrippPhillips in that category.

Paul came to Chapel Hill in September 1989after serving as the Director of Tennis and thehead men’s and women’s tennis coach at theUniversity of Richmond for two years. AtRichmond, he won honors as the ColonialAthletic Association’s Women’s Tennis Coach ofthe Year in both 1988 and 1989. His women went11-11 in his first year at the helm, finishing third in

the CAA, and improved to 14-7 in 1989, whichwas good for second place in the CAA. The 1989team was also ranked in the region’s Top 10.

Working with a non-scholarship men’s pro-gram at Richmond, Paul led the Spiders to a 12-9 mark and third-place league finish in his secondyear.

During Paul’s four years as the Carolinaassistant, UNC was 82-29 overall in dual match-es, 26-3 in Atlantic Coast Conference regular-season dual matches and 10-2 in ACCTournament dual matches. Paul assisted onteams which won ACC Tournament titles in 1990and 1992, were the ACC Tournament runnersupin 1991 and 1993 and won the conference’s reg-ular-season championship in 1991 and 1992. All

George Sokol, 1963Named an All-America in singles as a juniorin 1963, George Sokol had a distinguishedtennis career at Carolina. He was the TarHeels’ first dominant presence in the Atlantic

Coast Conference. From 1954 to 1964, theACC chose a sole singles champion beforegoing to individual flight titles. Sokol wonthree of those titles, capturing the crowns in1962, 1963 and 1964. Sokol also won an out-right ACC doubles title in 1963, with partnerKeith Stoneman.Freddie McNair, 1970-73The only Carolina player to win All-Americahonors in every one of his four years inChapel Hill, Freddie McNair ranks as one ofCarolina’s finest players ever.

Over the course of the past 16 seasons,the Tar Heels have claimed six Atlantic CoastConference regular-season or tournamentchampionships (1990, 1991, 1992, 1996,2002, 2004); earned eight final Top 25national rankings from the IntercollegiateTennis Association (1990, 1991, 1992, 1993,1994, 1996, 2000, 2004); and merited 13spots in the NCAA Tournament field (1992,1993, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 2000,2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005). The 2004squad received the school’s highest seedever in the NCAA Tournament at No. 11. TheTar Heels hosted an NCAA regional in 2004for the first time since the tournament went toits current 64-team format in 1999.

The results of the past 16 years have beencause for celebration for Tar Heel headcoach Sam Paul and his players. Carolina’sproud tennis program regained momentum inthe 1990s similar to that from its early yearsin the nascent decades of the 20th century. Itseems only appropriate that the first decadeof the 21st century match the accomplish-ments long associated with the sport of ten-nis in Chapel Hill.

Carolina has always had an especially richtradition in the sport of tennis, featuring along list of great coaches, players and teams.Over the past 98 years, since the first teamwas fielded in 1908, UNC teams have com-piled a phenomenal won-loss record thatwould be difficult to rival in all of college ath-letics.

The Tar Heels’ overall dual-match recordstands at 1,373-342-8, a winning percentageof .799. It was during the 2002 season thatNorth Carolina reached the point in its histo-ry where it had 1,000 more wins than it had

losses, any amazing feat of long-term excel-lence. The milestone will came on February9, 2002 when UNC defeated West Virginia 7-0 at the Cone-Kenfield Tennis Center. Thewin gave the Tar Heels 1,000 more wins inhistory than losses for the first time as UNC’srecord stood 1,307-307-8 at the end of thatday. Going into the 2006 season, UNCteams have won 1,031 matches more thanthey have lost.

Since the first Tar Heel team was fielded inthe spring of 1908, 82 of 98 North Carolinateams have posted winning records, fivehave had break even seasons and only eighthave had losing records and even one ofthose was good enough to qualify for theNCAA Tournament. During three of 98 sea-sons, the University fielded no team at alland in only five of the eight losing seasonsdid the team actually play more than twomatches on its entire schedule, finishing 3-4in 1945, 8-9 in 1957, 14-16 in 1986, 11-14 in1999 and 11-12 in 2003. Nineteen of the 93teams have finished their campaigns unde-feated, the latest in 1970 with an 18-0 mark.During the late 1930s and early 1940s,Carolina teams put together a 67-match win-ning streak, a collegiate record in its timewhich was broken by William & Mary in 1949.

Twenty-one Carolina teams have finishedthe season ranked among the nation’s Top25 teams, topped by a tie for third place atboth the 1947 and 1948 NCAAChampionships. The University of NorthCarolina also played host to the 71stNational Collegiate Tennis Championships in1955 on the Campus Courts in Chapel Hill.Since the NCAA abandoned flight play andwent to a team tournament format in 1977,Carolina has made the NCAA field on 15occasions — in 1977, 1978, 1992, 1993,1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 2000, 2001,2002, 2003, 2004 and 2005.

Success in the Atlantic Coast Conferencehas also been the rule of the day duringCarolina’s vaunted tennis history. Since theconference’s formation during the summer of1953, Tar Heel teams have won a total of 25league championships, including 23 outrightcrowns. In fact, in 52 years of Atlantic CoastConference competition, the Tar Heels havefinished outside of the upper division of theleague standings only five times and havebeen either first or second in the standings in38 of those 51 years. The Tar Heels’ cumula-tive regular-season dual-match ACC recordstands at an amazing 288-75, a winning per-centage of .793. Carolina players have alsowon 86 ACC singles championships and 37doubles titles.The Birth of Tar Heel Tennis

The roots of tennis competition at theUniversity of North Carolina date back to1884 when the University Tennis Club wasfounded. In 1894, the club began intercolle-giate competition in the sport. It was not until1908, however, that letters were first award-ed to the players and the sport was grantedvarsity status at the University. From 1908through 1927, the team functioned without ahead coach and in 1911, 1915 and 1919 noteam was fielded at all. Beginning in 1920,Tar Heel teams have faced outside competi-tion for 86 successive years.

Program continuity kicked in as of the1927 season as John Kenfield arrived ashead coach and Tar Heel tennis fortunesbegan to soar quickly. Kenfield answered anadvertisement placed by the UniversityAthletic Association in the American LawnTennis Journal. The ad sought Carolina’sfirst full-time tennis coach. Kenfield’s deci-sion to respond to the query proved to be astroke of luck for Carolina and not a half-baddecision for himself.

Kenfield, then 35 years old, was workingin Chicago as both a tennis instructor at theLake Shore Country Club in suburbanGlencoe, Ill., and as a vice president of theCurtiss Candy Company, an enterprise he’dhelped organize in the Windy City. While atCurtiss Candy Company, Kenfield named theBaby Ruth candy bar, one of the biggest sell-ers of all time, as well as the Butterfinger bar.The young candy company wanted a catchyname for its new confectionery treat featuringchocolate and peanuts to compete with thepopular O’Henry bar of its leading businesscompetitor. Babe Ruth was then at the heightof his baseball career with the New YorkYankees and Kenfield wrote the famousBambino, asking for his permission to namethe candy bar after him. Ruth sent back aroyalty figure which the fledgling companycouldn’t afford. Kenfield then suggested“Baby Ruth” as an alternate name becauseno royalties would have been involved. Thename was adopted, the candy bar was asmash hit with the American populace,Curtiss made millions and the rest, as theysay, is history. Baby Ruth and Butterfingercandy bars are still enormously popular fare

80 years later.Kenfield’s first year as head coach was

1928 and until his retirement after the 1955season, his teams wrote a rather remarkablesuccess story during his 28-year coachingtenure. Ten of his 28 teams finished their dualmatch seasons unbeaten and his overallcoaching record was 434-30-2 for a remark-able winning percentage of .933. His teamsaveraged a 16-1 record each year during his28 seasons on the Hill. It was only appropri-

ate that when the University built a new ten-nis facility in 1992 the naming honors on thecomplex should honor the founder of the pro-gram, Kenfield.

Ruling the Roostin the SouthernConference

Carolina alsodominated tennisin the SouthernC o n f e r e n c e ,beginning with theleague’s foundingprior to the 1921-22 school yearand runningthrough 1953when the AtlanticCoast Conferencewas formed. TheUniversity of NorthCarolina was oneof the sevenfounding mem-bers of the ACC.Under Kenfield,Carolina teamswon Southern

Conference team championships on 15occasions — 1930, 1931, 1932, 1933, 1936,1937, 1939, 1940, 1941, 1942, 1943, 1944,1950, 1951 and 1953. Kenfield also coached13 Southern Conference individual singleschampions and 13 doubles teams which wonleague titles. Prior to Kenfield’s arrival oncampus, Carolina also won SouthernConference doubles titles in 1922 and 1923,giving the school 15 doubles championshipsin all.

Kenfield tutored some of the most accom-plished players in Carolina tennis history. Thefirst great player who came under Kenfield’stutelage was Bryan “Bitsy” Grant of Atlanta,Ga., who came to UNC as a freshman in1929. Rumor has it that Grant was actuallyenrolled at Carolina for three months before

Kenfield knew he was on campus. Once dis-covered, Grant blossomed quickly, beingnamed an All-America selection in 1931.Ranked as high as No. 3 nationally in men’ssingles during his post-collegiate career,Grant played on four U.S. Davis Cup teamsand won a trio of U.S. Tennis Associationnational clay court championships.

Grant and sophomore Wilmer Hinesplayed together on Carolina’s 1931 team,which finished undefeated and won theSouthern Conference title. Two years later, itwas Hines who succeeded Grant as UNC’stop player, winning the Southern Conferencesingles title in 1933 and combining withLenoir Wright to win the doubles crown thesame year. Hines was also named an All-America that year. After playing at Carolina,Hines went on to win the Italian Open cham-pionship. Ironically, Hines was more thanmerely a great tennis player. He also letteredin basketball three times at Carolina and cap-tained the 1933 UNC basketball squad.

In the late 1930s and early 1940s,Kenfield’s top players included players likeRamsay Potts, Archie Henderson, HarrisEverett and Zan Carver. Potts, who graduat-ed in 1937 and was also a two-time lettermanin basketball at Carolina, made the NCAAsingles semifinals while at UNC. That was in1936 when the National IntercollegiateChampionships were held at NorthwesternUniversity in Evanston, Ill. That same year,Potts was ranked No. 3 in the final nationalcollegiate singles rankings.

Carolina was so dominant during that timein Southern Conference tennis battles underKenfield’s tutelage that in 1936, UNC had allfour semifinalists in the Southern ConferenceTennis Championships’ singles competition.

season and in the process beat all of the topAmerican players of the time with the excep-tion of the legendary Jack Kramer. In 1940,Everett won the Southern Conference sin-gles championship. A year later, he won theleague doubles crown while teaming withM.P. Anthony.

Everett, who was also a native of ChapelHill, improved his national ranking to 11th in1940 after he beat both German Davis Cupstar Henner Henkle and Welby Van Horn atthe Forest Hills United States NationalChampionships. In 1941, Carver gave up hisTar Heel football career to concentrate solelyon tennis. He beat out Everett for the numberone spot on the Carolina team and thendowned his teammate Everett for theSouthern Conference singles title. That sameseason, Carver lost a tough three-set match(7-5 in the third) to Joe Hunt, who would goon to claim the singles title that year at theU.S. Open in Forest Hills.Seixas Becomes a Tennis Legend

Near the end of his coaching tenure,Kenfield was asked to pick the all-timeCarolina tennis team up to that point. Theveteran mentor chose Grant No. 1, Hines No.3, Henderson No. 4, Carver No. 5 andEverett No. 6. The man in the second spotwas the legendary Vic Seixas, an All-Americaselection in 1948. Seixas had a storybookcareer at Carolina, winning the SouthernConference singles title in 1948, finishing asthe runnerup in both 1947 and 1949 andteaming with Clark Taylor to capture theleague doubles crown in 1949. Seixas, aPhiladelphia, Pa. native, came to theUniversity after four years of Army Air Forceduty during World War II. In 1948, Seixasentered the NCAA Tournament as the topseed. He won five matches in the tournamentbefore dropping the championship match 6-4, 1-6, 7-5, 6-1 to Harry Likas of theUniversity of San Francisco, who was thenNo. 1 in the national singles rankings, onespot ahead of Seixas. Seixas advanced far-ther in NCAA singles action than any other

Tar Heel in history. The same year at theNCAA Championships, Seixas and ClarkTaylor were seeded third in the doubles tour-nament despite their less impressive sev-enth-place standing in the national doublesrankings. The duo won a pair of matchesbefore losing to the brother team of Evert andEvert from Notre Dame, 6-3, 6-8, 3-6, 6-4, 6-3 in the quarterfinals. During his senior yearin 1949, Seixas was the seventh-rankedmen’s singles player in the U.S. amateurranks.

Seixas went on to have a star-studdedcareer after graduating from Carolina. By1952, he had attained the No. 1 singles rank-ing among Americans and he won theWimbledon singles championship in 1953and the U.S. Open title in 1954. The 55 DavisCup singles matches he played in were morethan any American player in history and thatrecord stood for decades. His 75 U.S. Openmen’s singles victories were a record thatstood until broken by Jimmy Connors in1985, almost 30 years after Seixas’ heydayin the sport.Skakle Leads UNC To Unequaled Successin the ACC

Carolina continued to have great teamsduring the 1950s. In the summer of 1953,UNC became a member of the Atlantic CoastConference, joining six other schools asfounding members in a league that grew fromthe original seven teams in 1953 to 12 teamsin 2005.

From 1955-1959, four different men pilot-ed the Tar Heel program as head coach.Kenfield retired after the 1955 season withHam Strayhorn serving as the head coach in1956 and Vladimir Cernik tapped as the headman in 1957 and 1958.

With Don Skakle’s arrival as UNC’s headcoach in 1959, the second great era in NorthCarolina tennis began. A collegiate contem-porary of Seixas who also played on UNCteams in the late 1940s, Skakle led his teamsto total domination of the Atlantic CoastConference during his 22 seasons as headcoach. His teams won a total of 18 ACCtitles, including 16 crowns outright. On nineoccasions the Tar Heels finished among thenation’s Top 25 teams. Overall, Skakle’steams had a 418-55 dual-match record in 22seasons, including a 132-14 mark in theACC.

Among Skakle’s great players wereGeorge Sokol, who won a trio of ACC singlestitles from 1962-64, while being named anAll-America in his junior year; FreddieMcNair, Carolina’s only four-time first-teamAll-America selection, who won three ACCNo. 1 doubles crowns and three ACC singlestitles (two at No. 1 and one at No. 2); RichieMcKee, McNair’s doubles partner who wasan All-America selection three times and thewinner of two ACC singles championshipsand two league doubles crowns; and BillyBrock, a 1976 All-America who won a pair ofconference crowns in both singles and dou-bles.

McNair probably ranks as Carolina’sfinest player since Seixas left campus in1949 and before Roland Thornqvist andDavid Caldwell’s arrival in the ’90s. While atCarolina, McNair combined with McKee toreach the NCAA doubles finals in 1973 atPrinceton, N.J., even though the duo hadbeen upset in the finals of the ACCTournament the same year. McNair went onto have a distinguished professional career,attaining the world’s No. 1 doubles rankingwith teammate Sherwood Stewart in the late1970s. In fact, McNair won the 1976 FrenchOpen doubles title while teaming withStewart.Allen Morris Arrives In Chapel Hill

When Skakle passed away on the eve ofthe ACC Tournament in 1980, Carolina tennissuffered its first leadership void in over twodecades. The University hired Allen Morris, agreat tennis player in his own right, tobecome only the fifth head coach in schoolhistory. Morris was named ACC Coach of theYear three times during his tenure — in 1983,1990 and 1992. During the 1984 campaign,UNC reached a major milestone when theschool won its 1,000th dual match in history.The victory came in San Antonio, Texas, asthe Tar Heels upset sixth-ranked Trinity 5-4.

Morris’ top players included JeffChambers, Wayne Hearn, Don Johnson,Bryan Jones and Roland Thornqvist. An All-America in 1985, Chambers earned fourNCAA Tournament singles invitations andthree NCAA doubles bids. Hearn was theACC Player of the Year in 1985 and he madethe NCAA Tournament in both singles anddoubles twice. Although he never made the

NCAA Tournament, Johnson was a consis-tent player who was named the 1990 ACCTournament Most Valuable Player after lead-ing the Tar Heels to their first conferencecrown in 12 years. Johnson went on to havea distinguished doubles career in the profes-sional ranks, winning several major tourna-ments and consistently being ranked in theTop 10 in the world in doubles. Johnsonearned two Wimbledon doubles titles and aU.S. Davis Cup appearance before his retire-ment in 2003 from the professional ranks tobecome Carolina’s assistant tennis coach.A Stellar 1992 Season for the Tar Heels

Jones and Thornqvist helped lead the1992 squad to remarkable success on thecourt. Thornqvist was named a first-team All-America in both singles and doubles, andJones, a senior from Kings Mountain, N.C.,took home All-America honors in singles asthe 1992 Tar Heels set a school record forvictories in a season during their 25-5 cam-paign. Carolina finished eighth in the finalIntercollegiate Tennis Association poll andmade the NCAA Tournament field for the firsttime since 1978, beating No. 8 TCU in theround of 16 before losing to third-seededUCLA in the quarterfinals. Carolina alsoclaimed both the ACC regular-season andtournament championships in 1992.

Jones was named ACC Player of theYear, Most Valuable Player of the ACCTournament and Region II Senior Player ofthe Year in 1992, and he advanced to thesecond round of the NCAA Tournament.Thornqvist finished the season ranked sev-enth nationally in singles and he reached thequarterfinals of the NCAA Tournament inboth singles and doubles, playing the latterwith Chris Mumford, an All-America selectionin his own right. Thornqvist also was honoredwith the Rafael Osuna Award given national-ly for sportsmanship by the ITA.

That seemed only a prelude toThornqvist’s brilliant senior season. Finishing

36-6 in singles and 24-6 in doubles, theSwedish native was ranked fourth nationallyin singles and 10th in doubles at the season’send. Thornqvist captained the 1993 UNCteam to a 17th-place ITA poll ranking and tothe Final 16 of the NCAA Tournament, beat-ing Harvard in the first round of the tourna-ment before falling to eventual NCAA cham-pion Southern California in the round of 16.

Individually, Thornqvist won the RafaelOsuna Sportsmanship Award from the ITA forthe second straight year, the first player inthe history of college tennis to win the awardmore than once. He captured ACC titles atNo. 1 singles and No. 1 doubles, was namedto the All-ACC Team for the third straight yearand was the ACC Player of the Year and theITA Region II Senior Player of the Year.

As a senior, Thornqvist won the ITAnational indoor singles championship, beat-ing Georgia’s Mike Sell in the finals atMinneapolis. He was also an NCAATournament singles quarterfinalist for thesecond straight season and he was namedthe MVP of both the H.E. ButtChampionships and the Blue/GrayChampionships.

Carolina’s success has continued sinceSam Paul took over for Allen Morris after thelatter retired from coaching in 1993 tobecome athletic director at his alma mater,Presbyterian College.

Paul, who had been an assistant for fourseasons under Morris, has led the Tar Heelsto NCAA Tournament bids in 1994, 1995,1996, 1997, 1998, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003,2004 and 2005. Carolina reached NCAA

regional finals in 1994, 1996, 2000 and 2004and was one win short in each case fromreaching the tournament’s Final 16. Theschool hosted an NCAA regional for the firsttime in school history in 2004 and received aprogram high No. 11 NCAA Tournamentseed.

Paul has tutored several All-America

players at Carolina, including David Caldwell,Brint Morrow, Tripp Phillips and Nick Monroe.Caldwell and Phillips were both outstandingsingles players and both advanced far intothe NCAA Tournament several times.

Phillips reached the quarterfinals of theNCAA Tournament in 2000 and later thatyear he was named the winner of thePatterson Medal as Carolina’s outstandingsenior student-athlete. He was the first ten-nis player so named since Vic Seixas.Monroe, who Sam Paul acknowledges asone of the hardest-working players he evercoached, was an All-America in 2004, cap-tured the Patterson Medal and reached theNCAA quarterfinals in singles.

Carolina has finished either first, secondor third in the ACC standings in every yearunder Paul’s tutelage with the exceptions of1999, 2003 and 2005. The 2002 team, ledby senior Marcio Petrone as tournamentMost Valuable Player, won Carolina’s 25thACC championship in school history.Clemson and Duke are tied for the secondmost ACC championships in history with 11each.Carolina and the College Tennis Hall ofFame

Five student-athletes earned a 4.0 GPA in bothsemesters - Heather Kendell (field hockey), ChrisLitchford (men's soccer), Leigh Blomgren (women'ssoccer), Julia Bove (softball) and Lindsey Keiter(fencing).

"These exceptional academic benchmarksdemonstrate that Carolina student-athletes under-stand academics comes first, and our goal is to beoutstanding in all areas," says Baddour."Compliments to our coaches for recruiting true stu-dent-athletes, to our students-athletes for putting inthe time and hard work to succeed, and to our stafffor assisting them in reaching their goals both aca-demically and athletically."

Department of Athletics Statement on GamblingThe mission of the Department of Athletics is to sponsor a broad-based athletic program that pro-

vides educational and athletic opportunities for young men and women to grow and develop. In keep-ing with the Department's mission and the University's commitment to educational interests, compet-itive athletic programs, and integrity in all areas, the Department of Athletics strongly condemns theinfluence of gambling on intercollegiate athletics.

Student gambling is a significant issue on college campuses. Student-athlete involvement in gam-bling has produced many tragic situations, both for student-athletes and the universities they repre-sent. Student-athletes often compete in contests that generate interest from those involved in gam-bling and, possibly, organized crime. If given the opportunity, those interests will not hesitate to exploitthe position student-athletes hold on college campuses. As such, the University of North Carolina isfirmly opposed to all forms ofgambling and bribery related tointercollegiate athletics.

To fulfill its educational obli-gation, the Department providesa gambling education programto all its student-athletes anddepartmental staff members.This statement and the educa-tional program are reflections ofthe Department's commitment tokeeping intercollegiate athleticsfree from the influences of gam-bling and its related activities.

The Department requires itsstaff members and student-ath-letes to adhere to NCAA, stateand federal laws regarding gam-bling. In the interest of fair com-petition and the growth anddevelopment of student-ath-letes, the Department stronglyurges its friends and supportersto refrain from gambling/bettingon contests involving collegiatecompetition and to abide bystate and federal laws.

THE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA: CAROLINA MEN’S TENNIS


Through its teaching, research and publicservice, the University of North Carolina atChapel Hill is an educational and economicbeacon for the people of North Carolina andbeyond.

•HistoryThe University of North Carolina at Chapel

Hill was the nation’s first state university to openits doors and the only public university to awarddegrees in the 18th century.

Authorized by the N.C. Constitution in 1776,the university was chartered by the N.C.General Assembly Dec. 11, 1789, the sameyear George Washington first was inauguratedas president.

The cornerstone was laid for Old East, thenation’s first state university building, Oct. 12,1793. Hinton James, the first student, arrivedfrom Wilmington, N.C., Feb. 12, 1795.

•LocationThe 729-acre central campus includes the

two oldest state university buildings, Old Eastand Person Hall. Old East and PlaymakersTheatre, an 1852 Greek-revival building areNational Historic Landmarks.

The American Society of LandscapeArchitects selected the Carolina campus as oneof the most beautifully landscaped spots in thecountry. That listing is among the praise affirm-ing the charm of mighty oaks, majestic quad-rangles, brick sidewalks and other landscapingsynonymous with UNC.

Today, the campus is undergoing anunprecedented physical transformation madepossible in part by North Carolinians’ over-whelming approval of the $3.1 billion bond ref-erendum for higher education. The referendum,approved in November 2000, was the nation’slargest higher education bond package.

The bonds mean $510 million for renova-tions, repairs and new buildings so 21st centurystudents at Carolina can learn in a 21st centuryenvironment. Also guided by a visionary masterplan for growth now rapidly coming to life, theuniversity is investing another $800-plus millionfrom non-state sources, including private giftsand overhead receipts from faculty researchgrants, for other buildings essential to excel-lence. The resulting $1.3 billion capital con-struction program is among the largest under-way at any major American university.

Recently completed projects include the ren-ovation of Memorial Hall, which anchors the uni-versity’s planned arts common and is now acomfortable, elegant venue for the performingarts; the Rams Head Center, a linchpin in thecampus master plan that combines a 700-spaceparking deck, dining and student recreationfacilities, and innovative sustainability practices;and the renovated Health Sciences Library,which features 140 computer workstations andtechnology that will encourage collaborationamong scientists and educations in Chapel Hilland beyond.

This fall, groundbreakings will include theNorth Carolina Cancer Hospital, a $180 millionfacility being built by the UNC Health CareSystem that was approved by the NorthCarolina General Assembly and Gov. MikeEasley in 2004.

UNC anchors one corner of the famedResearch Triangle Park, which has played avital role in nurturing the economic developmentof North Carolina.

Patient outreach pro-grams affiliated with Carolina and the UNCHealth Care System serve citizens in all 100North Carolina counties.

Carolina belongs to the select group of 62American and two Canadian campuses formingthe Association of American Universities.

In fall 2004, Carolina enrolled more than26,800 students from all 100 North Carolinacounties, the other 49 states and more than 100other countries. Eighty-two percent of Carolina'sundergraduates come from North Carolina.

Those students learn from a 3,100-memberfaculty. Many of those faculty members hold orhave held major posts in virtually every nationalscholarly or professional organization and haveearned election to the most prestigious aca-demic academies and organizations.

The Carolina academic community benefitsfrom a library with more than 5.6 million vol-umes and perennially ranks among the bestresearch libraries in North America as judged bythe Association of Research Libraries. The mostrecent association listings place Carolina 15thamong 114 research libraries in North America.UNC's North Carolina Collection is the largest ofits kind among state-oriented collections oncampuses nationwide. And the Southern andrare book collections also are among the coun-try's finest.

Carolina's more than 243,000 alumni live inall 50 states and in 146 countries. Notable alum-ni include writers Thomas Wolfe, Shelby Foote,Russell Banks and Jill McCorkle; athletesMichael Jordan, Vince Carter, Antawn Jamison,Mia Hamm, Marion Jones and Davis Love III;and journalists Alan Murray, Roger Mudd,Charles Kuralt, Stuart Scott and Tom Wicker.

•The Carolina CovenantCarolina has expanded its nationally recog-

nized Carolina Covenant initiative to make adebt-free college education possible for morelow-income students. The changes, announcedby Chancellor James Moeser during his 2004State of the University address, send an evenstronger message about accessibility and thetraditional commitment to opportunity in ChapelHill for qualified students – regardless of theirability to pay.

Launched in fall 2004, the Carolina Covenantinitially covered 225 freshmen who can gradu-ate without debt. Instead, they agree to work oncampus 10 to 12 hours weekly in a federal work-study job, and Carolina meets the rest of theirneeds through a combination of federal, state,university, and other privately funded grants andscholarships.

Now the university is increasing the financialeligibility requirements for the program to coveran estimated 120 new students. Starting in fall2005, students and their families must be at orbelow 200 percent of the federal poverty level –up from 150 percent. That raises the thresholdto cover a family of four with an annual incomeof about $37,000 or a single parent with a childwho makes about $24,000. This year, thoseincome levels were at about $28,000 and$18,000, respectively.

Carolina became the first major public U.S.university to announce plans for such a programin fall 2004. Since then, several universities,including Virginia, Maryland, Nebraska, Illinois,Harvard and Brown, have created orannounced plans for similar programs. UNCalso has begun a mentorship program forCovenant scholars being supported by facultyvolunteers.

The university consistently ranks among thenational leaders in making education financiallyaccessible to students. Carolina also meets thefull need of middle-income students, with finan-cial aid packages comprised of two-thirdsgrants and scholarships and one-third loansand work-study. (Most aid packages are closerto two-thirds loans and one-third grants.)

Carolina Covenant scholars were admittedunder the university’s rigorous admissions stan-dards. More than half of the first year’s class in2004 were first-generation college students.Covenant students posted an average 4.21grade-point average and 1,209 ScholasticAptitude Test (SAT) score.

•The Carolina First Campaign The Carolina First Campaign is a compre-

hensive, multi-year private fund-raising cam-paign – the largest in the university’s history – tosupport the vision of Carolina becoming thenation’s leading public university. The ultimatebeneficiaries of reaching that goal will be thepeople of North Carolina, whom Carolina is ded-icated to serve.

The university exceeded the $1 billion markfor the campaign during fiscal 2002-2003. As ofJune 2005, the campaign has raised more than

$1.47 billion in gifts and pledges from alumniand friends toward its $1.8 billion goal.

Carolina First has created 144 new endowedprofessorships toward a total goal of 200 and473 new scholarships and fellowships for stu-dents toward a target of 1,000. Faculty supportand the quality of students and facilities areamong key priorities for the campaign, sched-uled to close in July 2007.

Other campaign priorities include providingthe means to pursue strategic initiatives toenrich the academic experience; conductresearch that improves the health and the eco-nomic, social, and cultural well being of citizens;and redouble the commitment to public serviceand engagement.

Total giving in fiscal 2004 was $190 million ingifts and private grants – the largest singleamount received in a single year in the universi-ty’s history. The campaign counts gifts, pledgesand deferred gifts, bringing the campaign totalto $237 million for fiscal 2004. The $190 millionfigure counts only gifts received outright.

In fall 2000, Chancellor James Moeserpledged to the people of North Carolina that ifthey passed the higher education bond referen-dum the university would triple their investmentwith private funds. The people responded over-whelmingly, and successful completion of theCarolina First campaign will fulfill that pledge.The ultimate beneficiaries will be the people ofNorth Carolina.

•StudentsRecent freshman classes at Carolina have

set new standards of excellence as measuredby the rigorous coursework students have takenin high school, as well as their grades and SATscores. In 2004, the university’s incoming fresh-men continued that trend. And the most aca-demically qualified incoming class ever is head-ed to Carolina in fall 2005 with an average SATscore of 1301, up 14 points over last year'sclass. Admitted freshmen hail from every NorthCarolina county, each of the nation’s 50 statesand 44 other countries.

Incoming freshmen will include 43 new

Among the largestand most competitive scholarships at U.S. col-leges and universities, the Morehead Awardscover all expenses for four years of undergrad-uate study, including summer enrichment expe-riences. The program, now more than a half-century old, is modeled after the RhodesScholarships to Oxford University in England.

The newest Tar Heels who will enter Carolinathis fall will include 22 Robertson Scholars.Along with 20 others who will matriculate atDuke University, they are part of the fifth class ofthis unique scholarship program, created by a$24 million gift from Julian and Josie Robertson.The full-tuition scholarship allows each studentto spend a semester in residence at the othercampus. The scholarships bring together two ofthe nation's finest universities and help fosterenhanced collaboration between both campus-es.

As the first public university in the nation,Carolina has a long and proud history of linkingits expertise and energy to the needs of thepeople. Among those graduating last May werechampions of the people — 15 scholars whocontributed hundreds of hours of service to thecommunity and received special training in howto make that service more effective. These stu-dents comprised the first graduating class of thePublic Service Scholars Program, which waslaunched in 2003 by the Carolina Center forPublic Service. More than 450 students areenrolled in this innovative program, working innursing homes, hospitals, public schools, theSpecial Olympics, the Animal ProtectionSociety, the Family Violence Prevention Center,Habitat for Humanity and the Big Buddy men-toring program. They reported more than26,000 hours of service during the 2004-05sacademic year.

The number of Carolina students winningdistinguished scholarships is rivaled by only ahandful of other universities. For example,Carolina has the second largest number ofRhodes Scholars among public universities (38since 1902). The 38th winner, Class of 2002alumna Rachel Mazyck of Laurel, Md., won theaward last November to study at OxfordUniversity in England. She earned an under-graduate degree in English with highest distinc-tion from UNC and graduated from HarvardUniversity’s master’s program in education poli-cy and management. She will use the scholar-ship to earn a doctorate of philosophy specializ-ing in educational studies.

Last spring, nine other undergraduatesjoined Mazyck as among the university’s distin-guished scholarship winners by being selectedfor Truman, Goldwater, Mitchell and Churchillscholarships, as well as a Mellon fellowship anda slot on USA Today’s 2005 All-USA CollegeAcademic Team:

Lauren McAlee, a junior from Crofton, Md.,with a double major in public policy and philos-ophy, won the Truman Scholarship, which willfund her senior year and graduate studies. Shehopes to open a charter school in a low-incomecommunity.

Four students — juniors Carrie Gibbons ofCary, Kimberly Kallianos of Atlanta and JamesMahaffey of Raleigh, and sophomore GregoryCharville of Raleigh, won Barry M. Goldwater

scholarships. This award goes to students whoshow a strong commitment to careers in mathe-matics, the natural sciences or engineering.Carolina has had 27 Goldwater Scholars sincethe first awards were made in 1989. This year,UNC was among 12 campuses with four win-ners each, including Harvard, Princeton andStanford universities.

Richard Waters of Morehead City won theGeorge J. Mitchell Scholarship for graduatestudy in Ireland. Richard, who graduated in Maywith a double major in chemistry and mathe-matics, is Carolina’s second MitchellScholarship winner since the program began in1998. He plans to earn a graduate degree inapplied science at the University College Corkin Cork, Ireland, and will eventually pursue amedical degree to help people in underservedregions of the world.

Nicholas Love, a biology major who graduat-ed in May, won a Churchill Scholarship for out-standing academicand extracurricularaccomplishments.Nicholas, whohails fromBrighton, Mich.,will seek a gradu-ate degree in zool-ogy at CambridgeUniversity inEngland.

John W. SteenIV of Winston-Salem received anAndrew W. MellonFellowship. John,who graduatedwith highest hon-ors in English inMay, will use theaward to study fora doctorate in comparative literature at EmoryUniversity.

•FacultyDr. Oliver Smithies, Excellence Professor of

pathology and laboratory medicine, was one oftwo recipients of the 2005 March of Dimes Prizein Developmental Biology for his role in devel-oping gene targeting. Smithies helped developa technique that gives scientists around theworld the ability to alter particular genes in cul-tured cells and transfer those targeted genes tolaboratory mice. Gene targeting allows them todesign and produce “knockout” mice to studyhow the disabled gene works and to create ani-mal models of human diseases. Smithies alsowon the 2001 Albert Lasker Award for BasicMedical Research, the nation's most distin-guished honor for outstanding contributions tobasic medical research. The Lasker Awardshave often been called “America's Nobels,” andmore than 60 researchers who won a Laskerwent on to receive the Nobel Prize.

Two faculty members last spring were elect-ed fellows of the prestigious American Academy

of Arts and Sciences in recognition of majorcontributions to their fields. They are Drs. JackD. Griffith, Kenan Distinguished Professor ofMicrobiology and Immunology and member ofthe UNC Lineberger Comprehensive CancerCenter; and Joseph M. DeSimone, W.R. Kenan,Jr. Distinguished Professor of Chemistry andChemical Engineering at UNC and N.C. StateUniversity. The academy is considered thenation’s oldest and most illustrious learned soci-ety. Griffin’s melding of electron microscopymethods with biochemical tools revealed impor-tant insights into genetic diseases. His 1999 co-discovery that the ends of chromosomes aretied in firmly knotted loops provided insights intocancer and aging. DeSimone holds more than100 U.S. patents and is renowned for discover-ing revolutionary ways to use carbon dioxide inplace of conventional organic solvents for envi-ronmentally responsible manufacturing, clean-ing and processing. Earlier this year, he was

elected to membership in the National Academyof Engineering. Griffith and DeSimone bring to27 the total number of Carolina faculty memberselected to the American Academy of Arts andSciences.

Assistant Professor Lisa Pearce of theDepartment of Sociology was named a WilliamT. Grant Scholar. The award provides $300,000over five years to support research in youthdevelopment. Pearce, a fellow of the CarolinaPopulation Center, will use the funds to studythe role of religion in the shaping of self-image,aspirations, and achievement in youth.

Two distinguished professors at Carolinahave been selected for prestigious GuggenheimFellowship awards. Drs. Donald J. Raleigh, JayRichard Judson distinguished professor of his-tory, and Gerald J. Postema, Cary C. Boshamerprofessor of philosophy and law are 2005 recip-ients. Fellows are selected by the John SimonGuggenheim Memorial Foundation and recog-nized for distinguished individual achievementand exceptional promise for future accomplish-ment. Raleigh has written, translated or editedmore than a dozen books on a wide variety ofissues related to Russia. He will use his fellow-ship to research an oral history project, “SovietBaby Boomers: An Oral History of the Class of’67.” Postema has written close to 60 publica-tions, articles and chapters, and has writtenseveral books, including “Bentham and theCommon Law Tradition.”

CAROLINA MEN’S TENNIS: STUDENT-ATHLETE SERVICES


Student-Athlete ServicesAdvancing toward gradua-tion, building Character anddeveloping leadership

Student-Athlete Services at theUniversity of North Carolina encompassesthree areas that play an integral part in thecollegiate experience of every UNC stu-dent-athlete. Those three areas areAcademic Development, Student-AthleteDevelopment and LeadershipDevelopment.• ACADEMIC DEVELOPMENT

The Academic Support Program is themain service utilized in advancing UNCstudent-athletes to graduation. The pro-gram assists student-athletes in exploringtheir interests and abilities, enjoying abroad educational experience, and reach-ing or exceeding their academic goals."Our young people are students first andathletes second and that will always be thecase at the University," says UNC Directorof Athletics Dick Baddour. "That is a creditto our coaches, administrators and sup-port staff, but most of all, our student-ath-letes. Their accomplishments in the class-room are very impressive."

During the 2004-05 academic year, 297Carolina student-athletes made the ACCAcademic Honor Roll, which requires acumulative GPA of at least 3.0 for the year.Nine members of the 2004-05 Tar Heelmen’s tennis squad made the ACC HonorRoll.

In the fall of 2004, 176 student-athletesmade the Dean's List, and 163 did so inthe spring of 2005. Five men’s tennis play-ers were named to the Dean’s List in thespring semester of 2005 and two werenamed to the Dean’s List in the fall semes-ter of 2005.

The Academic Support Program ishoused primarily in the Pope AcademicSupport Center, which is equipped withstudy facilities, tutorial rooms, a computerlab, a 128-seat auditorium, counselors'offices and state-of-the-art video and com-puter equipment. At the center, studentsmeet with staff to discuss course selection,major and career exploration, academicprogress and academic eligibility.

The Academic Support Program helpsfreshmen transition from high school tocollege through a variety of academic pro-grams such as academic counseling, indi-vidual tutoring, group review sessions andsupplemental instruction.

A member of each team serves as theAcademic Team Captain, providing astrong link between the Academic Support

Program and the other stu-dent-athletes on thesquad. The AcademicTeam Captain for men’stennis for 2005-06 is LennyGullan.

The full-time academicsupport counselor who isassigned to work with themen’s tennis team in thearea of Student-Athlete Services is KymOrr.

•STUDENT-ATHLETE DEVELOPMENTBuilding character in UNC student-ath-

letes is the main charge of Student-AthleteDevelopment.
