ASU Soccer Stadium at
The Ted Mackorell Soccer
Complex In 2012, Appalachian soccer begins its fifth season of play at the ASU Soccer Stadium at the Ted Mackorell Soccer Complex. Completed in 2008, the facility features two artificial turf fields as well as a picturesque panoramic view of the surrounding Blue Ridge Mountains. The High Country Soccer Association (HCSA) Ted Mackorell Complex is located off of Brookshire Road, and is easily accessible from US-421. In addition to the ASU Soccer Stadium, two other fields (one turf, one grass) provide local high school HCSA teams a chance to play soccer throughout the year. The stadium is complete with a modern press box and seating for up to 1,000 spectators. In 2010, a new addition was added to the complex, featuring locker rooms for both the men’s and women’s teams. Each locker room contains 30 lockers, showers, bathrooms, television and sound system. Additionally, the structure includes a concession stand and restrooms for the public.

Season Outlook
The 2012 Appalachian State University women’s soccer team will look to bounce back this upcoming season after finishing 6-11-2 overall and 2-7-2 within the Southern Conference last year, placing them in a tie for 10th place. Head coach Sarah Strickland returns for her third season for the Mountaineers, determined to lead ASU into the winning direction.
Strickland returns her entire coaching staff from a season ago, as Lindsay Cobb enters her eighth season at Appalachian and Lindsey Morgan returns for her second campaign.
The Mountaineers will have an experienced team in 2012, a trait that was lacking from a season ago, graduating just two seniors. ASU returns six seniors to the roster, highlighted by defender Taylor Dunlap who looks to extend her streak of 56 consecutive games started for Appalachian. Dunlap will be in the backline alongside junior Amy Werdine who started 17 games last season, and sophomore Nicole Steyl who tallied the second most minutes played for the 2011 season, trailing only Dunlap.
In the midfield, seniors Hannah Coad and Sam McVeigh combine for 75 career matches played and 10 career goals. Juniors Mimi Kleitches and Sam Neill join the senior duo in the midfield after playing in a combined 29 matches a season ago.
The experienced midfield will look feed the ball to senior Meggie Graham and sophomore Julia Holz, as the tandem scored a combined seven goals for the Mountaineers last season. Transfer Jenna Caudle, along with freshmen Kebrina Keys and Samantha Childress, have shown great promise in the preseason to the attacking line that will look to improve on the 16 goals scored last season.
Defending the goal is expected to be sophomore Amy Kolowsky who played every minute last season for ASU, tallying four shutouts and averaging five saves per game. Kolowsky’s 95 saves last season were seventh most all-time by an ASU goalkeeper and placed her sixth on the career list. Freshman Megan Roberson has had a great preseason and will look to see the field in 2012.
The Mountaineers open the season at ACC opponent Clemson, a team App State fell to in Boone last
season. The Apps will continue on the road, traveling to Austin Peay and Belmont, two teams the Black & Gold will face for the first time in the program’s history.
ASU returns home to face two Big South opponents in High Point and Longwood, before going on the road once against to take on another ACC opponent in NC State and Big South foe UNC Asheville.
Appalachian returns home to open its tough conference schedule against UNC Greensboro. The conference schedule includes a four-match road stretch that includes last season’s conference champion, Samford.

In 2012, Sarah Strickland enters her third season as head coach of the women’s soccer program at Appalachian State University. To date, she has amassed over fourteen years of coaching experience at the club, collegiate and national levels.
With Strickland’s next victory, she will move into second place for the most wins by an Appalachian head coach. With the Mountaineers, she coached seven student-athletes who earned spots on the Southern Conference Academic All-Conference Team.
Before coming to ASU, Strickland was an assistant coach at Mississippi State, where she served as the program’s recruiting coordinator and goalkeepers’ coach for two seasons. She was instrumental in MSU’s turnaround from four-consecutive losing seasons to a 9-8-2 record in 2009, the program’s first winning season in six years.
During the successful ‘09 campaign, the Bulldogs set program records for consecutive wins (eight) and shutouts (four) and achieved the highest RPI ranking in school history (No. 41). Under Strickland’s tutelage, goalkeeper Taryn Holland ranked second in the Southeastern Conference history with 368 career saves and set MSU records for saves and shutouts.
Prior to her stint in the SEC, Strickland was a well-respected club soccer coach and administrator in Alabama for eight years. During that time, she served as the director of coaching for the Montgomery YMCA Capital City Streaks (2000-04), Girls’ Director for Coaching for the American Soccer Club (2004-06) and Staff Director for the Birmingham United Soccer Association (2006-07).
She began her coaching career on the collegiate level as an assistant coach at Troy University in 1998 and served as the program’s interim head coach during the 1999 offseason. From there, she moved on to Auburn University at Montgomery, where she was an assistant on the men’s and women’s staffs from 1999-2000.
On the national level, Strickland is a United States Soccer Federation “B” licensed coach and served on the staff of the U-14 national program in 2001. She also coached for the Alabama Olympics Development Program boys’ and girls’ programs from 1998-2002 and the Mississippi ODP girls’ in 2009.
The former Sarah Churchill was a three-year letterwinner at George Mason, where she helped lead the Patriots to back-to-back NCAA Tournament appearances in 1996 and 1997, making it as far as the Third Round (round of 16) in ‘97.
Strickland was a three-time Colonial Athletic Association Commissioner’s Academic Award winner and graduated from GMU with a B.A. in psychology in 1998.
She earned a M.S. in foundations of education from Troy in 1999.
Coach Strickland and her husband, Jimmy have three children: (left to right) Kelsey, Will and Bo.

Assistant Coaches
Lindsey Morgan officially joined the Appalachian State staff on June 29, 2011 after spending the 2010 season at Stephen F. Austin, where she helped guide the squad to a 13-5-2 record and second place in the Southland Conference.
Morgan assisted a young roster in 2011 that carried 16 freshmen and just two seniors and tallied four shutouts, netted 16 goals and average over 10 shots per match.
Prior to serving at SFA, Morgan spent the 2009 season coaching her alma mater, Columbus State University, where she earned four letters. As an assistant, Morgan coached the Cougars to a 16-3-3 overall mark and 8-1-1 conference record.
In addition to her collegiate coaching duties, Morgan served as the Head Coach and Operations Director for Columbus Futbol Club, Redstar. Additionally, Morgan served as a senior staff coach for the Columbus State Soccer Camps from 2007-09. While working in this capacity, she was invited to elite camps with Florida State, Birmingham United Soccer Association and Atlanta Fire United of Region III Premier League.
As a midfielder at Columbus State, Morgan made 84 starts in four seasons. She finished her career with seven goals and 20 assists and earned NSCAA All-Region honors as a senior.
Morgan earned a bachelor’s degree in communication from Columbus State in 2010. She holds a USSF Class C coaching license.

Lindsay Cobb begins her eighth season assisting with the Appalachian women’s soccer program and will continue to train the team’s goalkeepers. Cobb was a three-time first-team All-ACC goalkeeper for NC State from 1988-90.
During her four-year career with the Wolfpack, Cobb was named ACC Tournament MVP for the conference champions. She led the Wolfpack to a 65-21-7 career record (.737) and a pair of NCAA semifinal appearances. She was named to the 1989 NCAA Final Four All-Tournament team after recording 15 saves in the semifinals against North Carolina. Currently, Cobb (formerly Lindsay Brecher) is ranked second all-time in ACC history with 396 career saves.
Last season, she coached Amy Kolowsky as she tallied 95 saves and four shutouts for her freshman year.

Southern Conference
The Southern Conference, which is in its 92nd season of intercollegiate competition in 2012-13, is a national leader in emphasizing the development of the student-athlete and in helping to build lifelong leaders and role models. The Southern Conference has been
on the forefront of innovation and originality in developing creative solutions to address issues facing intercollegiate athletics. From establishing the first conference basketball
tournament (1921), tackling the issue of freshmen eligibility (1922), developing women’s championships (1984), to becoming the first conference to install the three-point goal in
basketball (1980), the Southern Conference has been a pioneer. The Southern Conference is the nation’s fifth-oldest NCAA Division I collegiate athletic association. Only the Big Ten
(1896), the Missouri Valley (1907), the Pacific 12 (1915) and the Southwestern Athletic (1920) conferences are older in terms of origination.
Academic excellence has been a major part of the Southern Conference’s tradition. Hundreds of Southern Conference student-athletes have been recognized on ESPN The
Magazine/CoSIDA Academic All-America and all-district teams. A total of 19 Rhodes Scholarship winners have been selected from conference institutions. The conference
currently consists of 12 members in five states throughout the Southeast and sponsors 19 varsity sports and championships that produce participants for NCAA Division I
Championships. The Southern Conference offices are located in the historic Beaumont Mill in Spartanburg, S.C. A textile mill that was in operation from 1880 until 1999, Beaumont
Mill was renovated in 2004 and today offers the league first class meeting areas and offices as well as a spacious library for storage of the conference’s historical documents.

ASU Administration
Charlie Cobbdirector of AthleticsNC State, 1990eighth Year
debbie RichardsonSenior Assoc. Ad/SWAAuburn, 197517th Year
In his seven years at Appalachian State University, director of athletics Charlie Cobb has led the department to unparalleled success.
The many achievements enjoyed by Appalachian athletics during Cobb’s tenure include:
• Three NCAA Division I football national championships — marking the first time that any program has ever won three-consecutive NCAA Division I Football Championship Subdivision (FCS — formerly Divi-sion I-AA) titles and the first NCAA football championships ever won by a team from the state of North Carolina at any level.
• Shattering football attendance records at Kidd Brewer Stadium with crowds surpassing “The Rock’s” permanent seating capacity for each of ASU’s 40 regular-season home games since Cobb’s arrival in 2005.
• A 298-percent increase in football season-ticket sales.
• Seven-consecutive Commissioner’s Cup championships — recognizing the top overall men’s sports program in the Southern Conference.
• Three Germann Cup championships — recognizing the top overall women’s sports program in the SoCon.
• Thirty-five percent of the athletics department’s students making the Academic Honor Roll (min- i-mum GPA of 3.25).
• Seven of 20 varsity programs (football, men’s basketball, men’s cross country, women’s cross country, field hockey, women’s indoor and outdoor track and field) earning public recognition awards, based on being among the nation’s top 10 percent in their respective sports based on Academic Progress Rate (APR) scores.
• The Yosef Club, which provides scholarship and facility support for student-athletes, setting fundraising records each of the past seven years. Despite the state of the economy, the Yosef Club has reached the $2 million threshold for donations five years in a row. The record $2.72 million raised by the Yosef Club in 2011-12 is over $2 million more than Appalachian State athletics ever raised in any year prior to Cobb’s arrival.
• Appalachian’s athletics annual budget increasing from $7.5 million in Cobb’s first year to nearly $14.5 million in 2012-13.
The most visible of Cobb’s many achievements has been the addition of first-class facilities that will give Appalachian State the opportunity to be successful across the athletics spectrum for years to come.
A wave of facility enhancements totaling $50 million were completed in 2009, headlined by the 120,000-square-foot Appalachian Athletics Center. The seven-story complex, located behind Kidd Brewer Stadium’s west stands, includes new football offices and locker room, a strength and conditioning center, training facilities, academic study space and computer lab for all ASU student-athletes, as well as premium seating in the form of 600 club-level seats and 18 luxury suites.
The facility enhancements also included other significant renovations to The Rock. A new ticket plaza, which serves as a grand entrance to the stadium, as well as ornamental fencing that replaced the chain-link barriers that used to surround the stadium and field were completed before the 2007 season, while a 4,400-seat upper deck on the stadium’s east side and substantial upgrades to the east and south con-courses were completed prior to the ‘08 campaign.
In addition to the renovations at Kidd Brewer Stadium, the campaign also produced new homes for Mountaineer baseball (Jim and Bettie Smith Stadium), softball (Sywassink/Lloyd Family Stadium) and soccer (at the Ted Mackorell Soccer Complex), as well as the Apps’ first-ever indoor practice facility (Sofield Family Indoor Practice Facility) and renovations to Varsity Gym that have upgraded the facility to a premier practice and competition venue for ASU basketball, indoor track and field, volleyball and wrestling.
With the $50 million in facilities enhancements, all 20 of Appalachian’s intercollegiate sports teams now practice and compete in facilities that have either been built or renovated since the turn of the millenium.
While Cobb is quick to point out the “total team effort” put forth to achieve the many successes that have been enjoyed since he began his tenure as ASU’s director of athletics on July 1, 2005, it is the experience, vision and work ethic of the 44-year-old Cobb that has steered the Mountaineers to new heights.
Cobb’s peers recognized him for his efforts when the National Collegiate Athletics Directors Association (NACDA) named him the NCAA Division I FCS Southeast Region Under Armour Athletics Director of the Year in 2011.
He also serves on numerous NCAA and Southern Conference committees, most notably the NCAA Division I Football committee that he currently chairs.
Prior to his arrival in Boone, Cobb was a member of the athletics department at North Carolina State University from 1998-2005. A four-year football letterwinner at NC State from 1987-90, Cobb served as the Wolfpack’s senior associate athletics director for external operations for the seven years prior to his arrival in Boone. In that role, he oversaw NC State’s marketing, ticket operations, media relations and student-athlete development operations, as well as serving on the department’s compact strategic planning initiative, gender equity and facilities committees.
During his tenure, NC State increased football season-ticket sales by 87 percent and men’s basketball season-ticket sales by 121 percent. The combined ticket revenues accounted for an annual increase of over 86 percent for Wolfpack athletics, generating more than $6 million for the department.
In addition, Cobb served as NC State’s administrator for baseball and women’s soccer, tournament manager for the 2004 NCAA men’s basketball first and second rounds at the RBC Center and the chair for the south-east region of the NCAA women’s soccer committee.
Prior to returning to his alma mater in ‘98, Cobb spent six years in Atlanta, Ga., where he held positions with the Atlanta Sports Council, the Chick-Fil-A Peach Bowl and the Georgia Dome. As an assistant executive director for the Atlanta Sports Council and the Peach Bowl, he helped coordinate Atlanta’s bid for the 2002 NCAA men’s basketball Final Four and handled all game and event operations for the Peach Bowl.
As sales manager for the Georgia Dome from 1994-97, Cobb helped procure events such as the Southeast-ern Conference football championship, the SEC and Atlantic Coast Conference men’s basketball tourna-ments, NCAA men’s basketball championship events, Georgia High School Association football playoffs, major concerts and other college and amateur sporting events.
Cobb graduated with honors with a B.A. in business administration from NC State in 1990. A second-team all-ACC honoree at center as a senior, Cobb was an academic all-ACC selection and collected the presti-gious Jim Tatum Award, presented to the ACC football senior with the highest grade point average, and the Bob Warren Memorial Award, given to the Wolfpack football player that displays the highest integrity and sportsmanship.
After receiving post-graduate scholarships from both the ACC and NFL Charities, Cobb earned a master’s degree in sports administration from Ohio University in 1992.
Cobb is married to the former Lindsay Brecher, who was an all-ACC goalkeeper for NCSU women’s soccer from 1988-90 and serves as an assistant coach for Appalachian’s women’s soccer program. The Cobbs have a 14-year-old son, Harrison, and an 11-year-old daughter, Branan.
Debbie Richardson begins her 17th year as Senior Woman Adminis-trator at Appalachian State University. She joined the Mountaineer staff in August 1996 as an assistant athletics director and earned the title of senior associate director in 2006.
Richardson serves as administrator for a variety of men’s and women’s sports. As the senior woman administrator, she acts as spokesperson for the needs and interests of women within the athletics department, campus and community.
Richardson has been very active at conference, regional and national levels, participating on numerous committees. In the Southern Conference, Richardson sits on the wrestling and television committees and is the current chair of the volleyball committee. She is also a former chair of the conference’s Senior Woman Administrators’ Association.
Regionally, Richardson serves as the chair of the south region volleyball ranking committee, and, at the national level, she is entering her third year as a member of the NCAA Division I volleyball committee.
Richardson came to Appalachian following five years as assistant athletics director at the University of Illinois, where she was responsible for 11 sports, handling event management, athletic facilities and special projects, such as NCAA and Big Ten Championships.
Prior to her stint at Illinois, Richardson spent nine years at the University of South Florida, including seven seasons as head volleyball coach. While at South Florida, Richardson compiled a 180-117 record and earned three Sun Belt Conference Coach of the Year awards (1984, 1986 and 1988). She led her team to four Sun Belt championships (1986, 1987, 1988 and 1989).
Richardson came to South Florida from Gardner-Webb where she was a volleyball coach during the 1981 season.
A 1975 Auburn graduate, Richardson was a four-year starter for the Tigers during the AIAW-era. She served as a team captain and was named to the all-state team in both her junior and senior campaigns.
The Miami, Fla. native graduated from Berry High School in Birmingham, Ala.
An Olympic volleyball volunteer at the 1996 Atlanta Games, Richardson earned a master’s degree in physical education from East Tennessee State in 1977.

2012 APPALACHIAN STATE VOLLEYBALL
Boone lies in a small valley in the heart of the Southern Appalachians. It is named after the hunter and explorer Daniel Boone, who spent time in the region during the 1760s. Watauga County was formed in 1849 and the Town of Boone incorporated in 1872. Among its accolades are inclusion in National Geographic Adventure magazine’s “Best Places to Live and Play,” Norman Crampton’s “100 Best Small Towns in America,” USA Today’s “10 Great Small Towns with Huge Backyards” and U.S. News and World Report’s “10 Best Places to Retire in the U.S.” Boone is a college town, home to Appalachian State University. Originally Watauga Academy, the institution was formed to educate the mountain children and to ultimately prepare teachers for service through western North Carolina. It became Appalachian State Teachers College in 1929 and joined the University of North Carolina system in 1971. The university serves as a top economic driver followed by a combination of tourism, small business and residential home construction. The Boone area is characterized by mountain culture and casual living. Outdoor activities, cultural events, local dining and unique shops attract visitors from all over the world year-round. From breathtaking scenic views to Boone’s eclectic downtown area, known as King Street, there is something for everyone. One of the highlights of downtown Boone is the university’s Turchin Center for the Visual Arts. It features six gallery spaces and a community education and outreach program. Its exhibitions focus on a blend of recent and historically important artwork and feature nationally and internationally renowned artists as well as many of the �nest artists of the region. A wide array of quality arts and cultural events enhance the Boone community. The university’s month-long celebration of performing and visual arts, known as An Appalachian Summer Festival, has brought notable performers such as Paul Taylor Dance Company, London City Opera, Charlie Daniels and the Glenn Miller Orchestra. During the academic year, Appalachian hosts the Performing Arts Series with artists such as Garrison Keillor and the National Symphony Orchestra. Boone o�ers an uncommon quality of life – that’s why many visitors come for a weekend and stay for a lifetime.
