Appalachian State University field hockey brings a team with a mix of inexperience and upperclassmen into its 2013 campaign, returning thirteen players from last season, but also adding seven newcomers. App State will look to improve on its 3-15 record and fifth place finish in the Northern Pacific Field Hockey Conference (NorPac) East Division last season. Brandi Alexander Kist enters her eighth season at the helm and will depend on leadership from her two seniors to guide the team.

DEFENSE Junior Laura Malinoski an-chors the backline for the Apps. The Easthampton, N.J. native started 16 games last season, recording one defensive save. Appalachian will also rely on freshman Marissa O’Brien on defense. The Yorktown, Va. native holds her high school record for most defensive saves in a season.

2013 SEASON PREVIEWGOALKEEPERS Senior Sarah Anderson will take the top spot between the pipes for the Black and Gold this season. The Louisville, Ky. native started all 18 matches last season, posting a .673 save percentage with 140 saves.

OFFENSE The junior duo of Jessi Stuart and Dana Wetmore will be looked upon to lead the team offensively for the second year in a row. Stuart, a Middletown Pa. native, had three goals and three assists, while Wet-more, a Bethlehem, Pa. native, led the team with six goals on the season. Senior Emily Knapp, a Great Falls, Va. native, and junior Jordyn Warren, a Allentown, Pa. native, will use their experience to lead the team offensively. Knapp appeared in and started all 18 matches for the Moun-taineers, recording three assists, while Warren scored three goals and appeared in all 18 matches. Sophomores Lindsay Amador, Anna Copsey, Hanna French and Caroline Phillips will build on their promising freshmen seasons, as they each appeared in all 18 matches.

NEWCOMERS Appalachian State welcomes seven freshmen to this year’s squad. Alexander Kist brings in four for-wards, one midfielder, one defensive player and one goalkeeper. Virginia Beach, Va. native, Casten Farr helped lead her team to a second place fin-ish in the state championship dur-ing her senior season, while Lynnae Luettich finished her senior season with 16 goals and 10 assists at Mas-salonskee High School in Belgrade, Maine. Chapel Hill, N.C. native Katie Minogue was named all-conference her senior year, while fellow forward Sophia Tikson ended her prep career by being named first team all-Ohio at Thomas Worthington High School of Worthington, Ohio. Louisville, Ky. native, Jordan Van Cleave should provide a threat offensively for the Apps playing midfield while Marissa O’Brien will be expected to step up as the only defensive freshman. The lone freshman goaltender Jordan Yaukey, a native of Carlisle, Pa., re-corded nine shut-outs and 108 saves her senior season.

Founded in 1982, the eight-member NorPac Conference competes at the NCAA Division 1 level in field hockey. At the end of the 2001 season, two NorPac teams were ranked in the NCAA top 20. Entering the 2008 season, the NorPac Conference is comprised of seven teams, Appalachian State, California, Davidson, Longwood, Pacific, Radford and Stanford. After fulfilling NCAA reclassification requirements, Longwood became eligible for its first conference tournament in 2007 and hosted the 2008 NorPac Championship Tournament.

In July 2008, the conference announced the addition of UC Davis as its newest member. The Aggies became eligible to compete in a full conference schedule, including the NorPac tournament, in 2009-10.

In 2013, all eight institutions will compete in the NorPac Conference Championship Tournament at Liberty. The NorPac Tournament Champion will advance to an NCAA play-in game against the winner of the America East Conference, with the winner advancing to the NCAA tournament.

Appalachian State University field hockey not only takes pride in its ac-complishments on the field, but for the performance of its student-athletes in the classroom as well.

The Mountaineer program has estab-lished a tradition of academic success, and its scholastic achievements over the past 16 years rival that of any program in the country.

Since 1994, Appalachian has placed 155 student-athletes on the National Field Hockey Coaches Association (NFHCA) academic squad, including a record-tying 15 in 2011. And to be eligible for the squad, a student athlete must have a GPA of 3.30 or higher. The 2008, ‘09, and ‘10 squads were also honored with an NFHCA team award, in recognition of the team’s overall GPA above 3.0.

Appalachian State University field hockey was honored in 2011-12 with an NCAA Public Recognition Award for its latest Academic Progress Rate (APR) score released by the NCAA.

Teams honored by the NCAA earned multiple Academic Progress Report (APR) scores in the top 10 percent for the past four years. The most recent APR scores are multi-year rates based on the scores from the 2007-08, 2008-09, 2009-10, and 2010-11 academic years.

Appalachian was one of eight Southern Conference institutions to have a team honored with the Public Recognition Award . The APR is designed to provide a real-time look at a team’s academic suc-cess each semester by tracking the aca-demic progress of each student-athlete. The APR includes eligibility, retention and graduation in the calculation and provides a clear picture of the academic culture in each sport. High perform-ing teams recieving awards posted APR scores ranging from 965 to a perfect 1000.

ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE



Field hockey was introduced at Appa-lachian State University in the fall of 1968. The first intercollegiate sport for the female population on campus, Appalachian’s field hockey program is one of the oldest in the state of North Carolina. The success of the field hockey pro-gram at Appalachian is a direct result of the hard work and dedication of Dr. Jan Watson. Dr. Watson served as head field hockey coach from the inaugural season in 1968 through 1972 and again from 1974 until 1983. Under Dr. Watson’s direction, Appala-chian’s field hockey enjoyed an unparal-leled level of success. In 15 years as head coach, she posted an impressive win-loss record of 157-65-32. Her 157 wins remain a school record.

Dr. Watson’s participation in college athletics goes far beyond her work at Ap-palachian. One of the most prominent ad-vocates for the advancement of women’s athletics in the country, Watson co-found-ed the Deep South Field Hockey Asso-ciation with Ruth Reid of Furman and also served as the association’s first president. Watson also served as treAppalachianrer of the Association of Intercollegiate Athletics for Women, which disbanded in 1983. Dr. Watson was inducted into the Appala-chian Athletics Hall of Fame in 2008.

In 1993, the Women’s Field Hockey Endowment was founded to provide a venue by which former players, friends, and supporters of the program could assist with the program’s scholarship efforts. In 1997, the endowment was renamed the Dr. Jan Watson Endowment for Field Hockey in recogni-tion of the contributions Dr. Watson has made to the Field Hockey program at Appalachian. Currently, the endowment has a cash value of over $42,000 with an additional $30,000 in pledges resulting from the University’s “Campaign for the

The Dr. Jan Watson Endowed Scholarship

ASU placed 57 players on the Deep South All-Star team during Watson’s tenure.

Watson’s Year-by-Year Records

DR. JAN WATSON



In his ninth year at Appalachian State University, director of athletics Charlie Cobb has spearheaded perhaps the most successful and ambitious period in the University’s decorated athletics history.

Of Cobb’s many achievements in his nine years at Appalachian State, the most notable came in March when Appalachian accepted an invitation to join the NCAA Division I FBS Sun Belt Conference. For many of the University’s most ardent supporters, the announcement that Appalachian would join the Sun Belt on July 1, 2014 capped a years- and even decades-long quest for all 450-plus Mountaineer student-athletes to compete at the highest level of intercollegiate athletics.

However, the Sun Belt invitation is just the tip of the iceberg with regards to Cobb’s many accom-plishments at Appalachian State. The achievements enjoyed by Appalachian athletics during Cobb’s tenure also 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 Division 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 Appalachian’s 46 regular-season home games since Cobb’s arrival in 2005. • A 298-percent increase in football season-ticket sales. • Eight-consecutive Commissioner’s Cup championships — recognizing the top overall men’s sports program in the Southern Conference. • Four Germann Cup championships — recognizing the top overall women’s sports program in the SoCon. • Sweeping the Commissioner’s and Germann Cups in the same academic year four times — a feat never achieved by any other SoCon school. • Thirty-five percent of the athletics department’s students making the Academic Honor Roll (mini-mum GPA of 3.25).• Student-athletes achieving a combined 3.0 grade point average for both semesters of the 2012-13 academic year.• 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 ranking among the top 10 percent nationally in their respective sports in Academic Progress Rate (APR) scores. • The Yosef Club, which provides scholarship and facility support for student-athletes, setting fundraising records each of the past eight years. Annual Yosef Club donations, which never topped $700,000 prior to Cobb’s arrival, surpassed the $3 million mark for the first time in 2012-13.

The most visible of Cobb’s many achievements at Appalachian State has been the addition of first-class facilities that give the Mountaineers 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 condi-tioning center, training facilities, academic study space and computer lab for all student-athletes, as well as revenue-generating 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 concourses 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 facil-ity to a premier practice and competition venue for Appalachian 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 Appalachian State’s director of athletics on July 1, 2005, it is the experience, vision and work ethic of the 45-year-old Cobb that has steered the Moun-

taineers 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 Foot-ball 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 southeast 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 basket-ball 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 Southeastern Conference football championship, the SEC and Atlantic Coast Conference men’s basketball tournaments, NCAA men’s basketball champion-ship 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 prestigious 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 15-year-old son, Harrison, and a 12-year-old daughter, Branan.

DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS CHARLIE COBB

2012 APPALACHIAN STATE VOLLEYBALL

Nestled in the majestic Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, Appalachian State University combines the best attributes of a small liberal arts college with those of a large research university. Known for its value and affordability, Appalachian enrolls more than 17,300 students and offers more than 150 undergraduate and graduate majors. Small classes and close interactions between faculty and students create a strong sense of community, which has become an Appalachian hallmark.

RELEVANT DEGREE PROGRAMS Originally founded as a teachers college, Appalachian now cultivates leaders in business, science, the arts, communication, music, nursing, education and other careers. Today, Appalachian is a leader in the fields of energy-focused green technology and the health sciences.

QUALITY ACADEMICS In its 2012 America’s Best Colleges Guide, U.S. News & World Report ranked Appalachian No. 3 among the top public master-degree granting universities in the South. Appalachian was also included in The Princeton Review’s 2011 “The Best 373 Colleges” publication based on academics as well as student surveys that praised the accessibility of the university’s faculty, quality of academic programs and value.

VALUE AND AFFORDABILITY Appalachian consistently is named a best value by Forbes, The Princeton Review, Consumer’s Digest and Kiplinger’s Personal Finance Magazine for providing a high quality education at the lowest cost to students. Committed to making higher education affordable for every N.C. student, Appalachian offers the ACCESS scholarship program, which has supported students from the state’s lowest-income families by offering a debt-free, four-year university education. The university also includes a textbook rental program that saves a student hundreds of dollars during their undergraduate career.

OUTSTANDING FACULTY Ninety-nine percent of Appalachian’s full-time faculty hold doctorate, first professional degree, or other terminal degrees.

SMALL CLASSES, PERSONAL ATTENTION Personal attention from faculty is a hallmark of the Appalachian experience. Classes average 25 students. This close-knit “community of learners” contributes to Appalachian having a freshman-to-sophomore retention rate of 87 percent.

INTERNATIONAL CONNECTIONS With study abroad opportunities on nearly every continent, Appalachian students have access to approximately 200 foreign sites for semester and year-long programs of study.

CONTRIBUTORS TO KNOWLEDGE Appalachian encourages students to participate in undergraduate research alongside their professors and showcase this work at regional, national and international conferences.

Who We Are

Points of Pride


Nestled in the majestic Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, Appalachian State University combines the best attributes of a small liberal arts college with those of a large research university. Known for its value and affordability, Appalachian enrolls more than 17,300 students and offers more than 150 undergraduate and graduate majors. Small classes and close interactions between faculty and students create a strong sense of community, which has become an Appalachian hallmark.

RELEVANT DEGREE PROGRAMS Originally founded as a teachers college, Appalachian now cultivates leaders in business, science, the arts, communication, music, nursing, education and other careers. Today, Appalachian is a leader in the fields of energy-focused green technology and the health sciences.

QUALITY ACADEMICS In its 2012 America’s Best Colleges Guide, U.S. News & World Report ranked Appalachian No. 3 among the top public master-degree granting universities in the South. Appalachian was also included in The Princeton Review’s 2011 “The Best 373 Colleges” publication based on academics as well as student surveys that praised the accessibility of the university’s faculty, quality of academic programs and value.

VALUE AND AFFORDABILITY Appalachian consistently is named a best value by Forbes, The Princeton Review, Consumer’s Digest and Kiplinger’s Personal Finance Magazine for providing a high quality education at the lowest cost to students. Committed to making higher education affordable for every N.C. student, Appalachian offers the ACCESS scholarship program, which has supported students from the state’s lowest-income families by offering a debt-free, four-year university education. The university also includes a textbook rental program that saves a student hundreds of dollars during their undergraduate career.

OUTSTANDING FACULTY Ninety-nine percent of Appalachian’s full-time faculty hold doctorate, first professional degree, or other terminal degrees.

SMALL CLASSES, PERSONAL ATTENTION Personal attention from faculty is a hallmark of the Appalachian experience. Classes average 25 students. This close-knit “community of learners” contributes to Appalachian having a freshman-to-sophomore retention rate of 87 percent.

INTERNATIONAL CONNECTIONS With study abroad opportunities on nearly every continent, Appalachian students have access to approximately 200 foreign sites for semester and year-long programs of study.

CONTRIBUTORS TO KNOWLEDGE Appalachian encourages students to participate in undergraduate research alongside their professors and showcase this work at regional, national and international conferences.

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 finest 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 offers an uncommon quality of life – that’s why many visitors come for a weekend and stay for a lifetime.

State’s Largest Wind Turbine – This community-scale, 100-kilowatt wind turbine stands 153 feet and feeds enough electricity directly to the grid to power 15 homes. It was paid for primarily through student funds and in partnership with the university-affiliated utility, New River Light and Power. Aside from producing clean energy, the turbine serves as an educational monument to Appalachian’s ethic of sustainability.

Howard Knob – Located just a half mile from downtown Boone, this peak has an elevation of 4,420 feet. It was named for Benjamin Howard, a Revolutionary War loyalist who fled to a cave there to escape American patriots. Source: North Carolina Gazetteer: A Dictionary of Tar Heel Places
