Last season was a record-breaking year for 

the Kentucky men’s soccer program. 

The Wildcats thrived off a relentless defense 

and multiple scoring threats on offense to 

reach the second round of the NCAA Tournament 

before falling in double overtime to 

eventual national champion, Indiana. UK 

has added depth on the offensive and defensive 

ends that should make 2004 another 

banner year for Coach Ian Collins and his 

team. 

Attack 

The Cats return top goal scorer, Riley 

O’Neill, who last season became the first 

freshman in school history to lead the team 

in goals scored with seven. The Campbell 

River, B.C., native, finished fourth in the 

Mid-American Conference in goals and tallied 

three game-winners, including one to 

defeat then No. 12 Akron, 1-0. He was 

named MAC Newcomer of the Year, the 

fourth Wildcat to claim the honor since 

1995. 

O’Neill should get plenty of scoring help 

from sophomore Anthony Peters, who sat 

out last year. Peters led the Cats in scoring 

during the MAC Tournament as a freshman 

in 2002 and is one of the most explosive 

players on UK’s roster. Peters, 6-3, and 

O’Neill, 6-2, are both big targets who will 

be imposing scoring threats for the Cats. 

“Those two guys are going to be a formidable 

force,” Collins said. “Both are 

dynamic, primetime players and I look forward to 

seeing them play together.” 

Seniors Daniel Ferriter and Jonathan Brunet will 

provide experience and consistency to the frontline 

in their final year with the program. Ferriter transferred 

to UK last season and played valuable minutes 

in the team’s run through the post-season. 

Brunet is in his third season with the team after 

transferring as well. The Cats will rely on his craftiness, 

skilled left foot and ability to serve the ball in 

the box this season. Sophomore Brett Smith also 

will compete for playing time on the UK attack. 

Midfield 

The midfield position is headlined by a strong 

group of seniors, led by 2003 MAC Player of the 

Year, Jamal Shteiwi. Shteiwi led the conference 

and was fifth in the nation in assists with 13. He 

has led the Cats in scoring for the past two seasons. 

“Jamal has had a terrific college career,” 

Collins said. “We expect him to be an impact 

player once again.” 

2004 Season Preview 

Jamal Shteiwi was named the 2003 MAC Player of the Year 

and led the conference in assists with 13, 

which also ranked fifth in the nation. 

Senior Olli Lehtimaki scored three goals and 

tallied one assist last season. The Hameenlina, 

Finland, native held the team’s highest shot percentage 

in 2003. Chris Lefferts, a senior transfer 

in his second season with the program, started 19 

games for UK last season. 

“Olli gives us good stability and leadership in 

the middle,” Collins said. “Chris has really started 

to understand our system and we expect big 

things from him.” 

Shteiwi’s younger brother, Sophomore Jibran 

Shteiwi, saw limited action in his first season with 

the program, but has made significant improvements 

in strength and speed. He should see 

increased playing time this season. Also, Chris 

Okamura and Nikolas Moreno, spent valuable 

time practicing with the team and learning the 

system last season, and could challenge for playing 

time in 2004. 

The Cats also added an array of young talent in 

the midfield with a highly touted freshman class 

that is expected to make an immediate impact. 

Backs 

The Kentucky defensive unit, which 

sparked the team’s undefeated run through 

the MAC last season, looks to be even 

stronger this year. The Cats return three 

backline starters from 2003, including 

juniors Brandon Stewart and Thomas 

Senecal, as well as sophomore Nathan Li. 

Stewart, who has been a starter in both of 

his first two seasons with the program, was 

named Defensive MVP of the adidas/Spartan 

Classic in Greensboro, N.C., made the 

All-MAC Second Team and All-MAC Tournament 

teams as well. Senecal was UK’s 

third leading scorer, as he registered three 

goals and four assists. At 6-4, Senecal is 

dominant in the air for the Cats. Senior 

Adam Walker established the left back position 

as his own toward the end of last season, 

starting in the team’s final four matches. 

“The back is very strong with our veteran 

players,” Collins said. “There will be a battle 

for certain positions. I really like our depth 

in that area.” 

Jeremy Groves returns to the UK lineup 

after sitting out last season. Groves appeared 

in 13 matches as a sophomore two seasons 

ago and is expected to push for playing time 

right away. Senior J.R. Kenny and red-shirt 

freshman Matt Vogel spent much of last season 

practicing with the team and learning 

the system, but both will have the opportunity 

to see more action in 2004. A host of 

newcomers will also attempt to break into 

the Kentucky defensive lineup. 

Goalkeepers 

Junior Andy Gruenebaum returns as the Cats’ 

starter in goal. Gruenebaum played over 1,900 

minutes in goal last season and allowed a recordlow 

15 goals, on his way to a 0.68 goals against 

average. He held the 17th lowest GAA among 

Division I goalkeepers and led the Cats to the 

ninth lowest GAA in the country as a team. 

“Andy has established himself as the No. 1 

goalkeeper right now,” Collins said. “But, we 

have a nice goalkeeper core.” 

Other returning goalkeepers who will compete 

for playing time include senior Jarret 

Christie, sophomore Brannan Sapp and red-shirt 

freshman Chad Pricket. 

Newcomers 

Kentucky will welcome ten new faces to the 

program this fall, including a pair of NSCAA/adidas 

High School All-Americans. 



“This year’s freshman class is very talented and 

gives us a lot of options that we have been missing,” 

Collins said. 

Nathan Marks, a defender from Louisville, 

Ky., and Andrew Alexander, a forward from 

Atlanta, Ga., received All-America honors and 

were named Gatorade Player of the Year in Kentucky 

and Georgia, respectively. 

Marks was a four-year starter for Trinity High 

School and was a two-time All-Midwest Region 

and All-State West team selection. He will have 

the opportunity to learn from and compete 

against Kentucky’s veterans on defense in his first 

season. Alexander gives the Cats another scoring 

threat at the forward position. He finished his 

high school career as Pace Academy’s all-time 

leading goal and point scorer. In 2003, he led his 

team to a state championship and was named 

MVP of the Florida Invitational Tournament. 

The Wildcats also add one of the top defenders 

in the northwest, Evan Anderson, to the 

defensive unit. Anderson, a Redmond, Wash., 

native, is a member of the Region IV ’85 

Olympic Development Team and will add a great 

physical presence at 6-2. Virginia product, Grant 

Ward, is a skilled goalkeeper who has played with 

the Team America Premier Club team that won 

the 2002 Virginia State Cup and has trained in 

Holland, Spain and France. Both Anderson and 

Ward will add to an already strong defensive unit. 

On offense, UK picked up Michael Strong from 

San Antonio, Texas who is described as, “a terrific 

striker with explosive pace,” and could push for 

immediate playing time in the fall. Strong is a twotime 

TASCO All-State First Team selection and he 

was named to the Express News Greater San Antonio 

Area 2004 “Super Team”. Jeremy Swetnam is 

an Ohio product with great scoring ability. He registered 

21 goals and 23 assists last season for Worthington 

Christian Academy in Dublin. 

Kentucky native Troy West will join the team 

with four years of playing experience with the 

Kentucky Olympic Development State Team. 

West played his high school career at the Sayre 

School under the guidance of former Wildcat 

standout, Jason Bell. 

British Columbia native, Michael D’Agostino, 

is the third Canadian to sign with UK in two seasons, 

after the Cats experienced great success with 

its previous signees, Nathan Li and Riley O’Neill. 

D’Agostino has played for the Canadian National 

Team as a midfielder since 2001 and he has compete 

in Germany, Luxemburg, Slovakia and Austria. 

David Hertel also will compete for playing 

time in the midfield. Hertel hails from Holland 

Christian Academy in Michigan, where he was a 

First Team All-State selection and played for the 

Region II and Michigan ODP State Teams. 

The Cats will also welcome Matt Baum, a 

sophomore transfer from Florida Atlantic, to 

their 2004 roster. Baum tallied four goals and 

four assists for the Owls and started in seven of 

the 20 matches he appeared in as a freshman. 

The 6-2 midfielder will provide another strong 

scoring threat for UK. 

“I think these players will help us continue 

to push towards our ultimate goal of winning 

a national championship,” Collins said. “They 

all chose Kentucky to help us compete for that 

ultimate prize.” 

Brandon Stewart returns as a two-year starter 

and was second-team All-MAC and earned All- 

MAC Tournament team honors in 2003 as 

well. 

UK’s 2004 recruiting class was named as the 

40th best incoming class in America according to 

College Soccer News. 

Schedule 

Collins and the No. 22 Kentucky men’s soccer 

team have consistently faced one of the toughest 

schedules in collegiate soccer, and this upcoming 

season will be no different. The Wildcats’ 2004 

schedule includes match-ups with six teams ranked 

in the top-25, and eight teams that participated in 

the 2003 NCAA Men’s Soccer Tournament, 

including home matches against defending College 

Cup Champion, Indiana, No. 7 Michigan, NCAA 

participant Cincinnati and Ohio State. 

“I’m really excited for our fans to see some of 

the finest teams in the country play at the UK 

Soccer Complex. This is our best home schedule 

ever,” Collins said. “This is an extremely tough 

schedule that will challenge our players all the 

way through the season.” 

The Cats open with scrimmages against Michigan 

State and No. 2 St. John’s in the IPFW Soccer 

Showcase pre-season event in Ft. Wayne, Ind. 

Kentucky will play its first regular-season matches 

at the Southern Methodist Mi Cocina Classic in 

Dallas, Texas, Sept. 3 and 5, where it is set to face 

two tough opponents in No. 23 SMU and No. 24 

Tulsa. The Mustangs posted a 13-6-3 record last season 

and made their 19th NCAA Tournament 

appearance in 20 years, while the Golden Hurricane 

advanced to the second round of the NCAA Tournament 

last season and finished the year as the fifthhighest 

scoring team in the country. 

The Wildcats then face-off against in-state 

rival Louisville on the road before playing their 

home opener against UNC Asheville. Kentucky 

plays its first Mid-American conference match on 

the road at Western Michigan and returns home 

the following weekend to play host to the UK 

Invitational Tournament, which features matches 

against Georgia Southern and Winthrop. UK 

will close out the month of September with 

matches against Marshall and Ohio State. 

The Cats will begin October with a showdown 

against No. 7 Michigan at the UK Soccer 

Complex, followed by a road match against Buffalo. 

Kentucky will then play a four-game home 

stand highlighted by a match against defending 

national champion, Indiana. ` 

After hosting matches against Northern Illinois, 

Bowling Green and Alabama A&M, Kentucky 

will play its final road game of the season 

against No. 16 Akron. UK then returns home to 

face Cincinnati in a rematch of the NCAA Tournament 

first round before playing its final regular-season 

match against UAB. 

“Our schedule has a tough beginning, a tough 

middle stretch and a tough ending,” Collins said. 

“I think it shows our commitment to continue to 

play the best teams in the country.” 

Coach Collins 

on the Senior Class: 

“I think it is a good, strong class. Jamal Shteiwi 

and Olli Lehtimaki are going to be the leaders 

of the class. We have a few other guys who didn’t 

start their careers here, but are ending them here. 

Christopher Lefferts, Jarret Christie, J.R. Kenny, 

Jonathan Brunet and Jeremy Groves are guys who 

started their careers elsewhere. It will be great for 

them to finish off here because they’ve all worked 

really hard. It is a great group of guys and I hope 

they go out the right way.” 



Head 

Coach 

Ian Collins 

As Ian Collins enters his 

eleventh season at the 

helm, UK is poised to field 

one of its most talented teams 

yet coming off a solid 12-7-2 

campaign that ended in the 

second round of the NCAA 

Tournament. Kentucky finished 

the season ranked No. 

22 in the nation. 

The Cats asserted their dominance once 

again in the Mid-American conference last season 

by posting a 6-0-0 regular season conference 

record, only the fourth team in league 

history to finish with an unblemished 

season. Collins has guided 

Kentucky to three MAC Tournament 

titles and three MAC 

regular-season titles. 

Kentucky has established 

itself as a serious threat in recent 

NCAA Tournament 

appearances. 

UK has competed 

in the NCAAs 

four of the past 

five seasons, 

advancing to the 

second round in 

2000, 2001 and 

2003. 

Collins is a 

three-time MAC 

Coach of the Year 

(1997, 1999, 

2001) as well as 

the National Soccer 

Coaches Association 

of America 

Mid East Region 


in 1999.

Bluegrass as an 

assistant coach in 

1992, Collins has 

been a part of the 

Wildcat family for 

12 of its 13 years. 

He spent just two 

seasons as assistant 

before taking over 

the reins as head 

coach in 1994. 

In 1997, Collins led 

Kentucky to new 

heights, finishing 

with a 12-7-2 overall 

record. UK started 

the season with a 5-1- 

1 record, including a 

2-1 triumph over rival 

Bowling Green in front 

of 3,000 fans at the UK 

Soccer complex. Collins 

led UK to the MAC 

Tournament semifinals 

for the 

third straight 

year, picking 

up MAC 

Coach of the Year honors for his efforts. 

In 1999, Collins guided the Cats to the 

school's first MAC Tournament title and 

NCAA Tournament berth. UK reeled off four 

consecutive wins heading into NCAA before 

stretching defending champion Indiana to the 

limit in a double OT loss. 

The 2000 season brought even 

better things. Collins' squad 

captured a tie for first 

place in the MAC to 

earn its first regularseason 

title. Then 

after defeating 

Bowling Green 

for the MAC 

Tournam 

e n t 

crown, the 

Cats traveled 

to 

No. 9 

Saint Louis, 

where they 

topped the Billikens 

in an 

NCAA tournament 

first-round 

shootout. 

In 2001, the 

Cats provided 

Collins with the 

team's highest offensive 

output since 

1995, nearly breaking a 

school record for points 

with 125 on 39 goals 

and a school-record 47 

assists. UK finished 2001 

with a 14-6-1 record, its 

first undefeated MAC 

season, its third straight 

MAC tourney title and 

another berth in the NCAA 

tourney. 

Last year, Kentucky 

posted an impressive 12-7- 

2 record, its seventh consecutive 

double digit win 

season. Collins' team 

played stifling defense and 

became the first in MAC 

history to complete regular 

season play without

of the Year 


2001, 1999, 1997 1999 

developed team techniques and tactics. 

After coming to the United States in 1986

Q&A with Coach Collins 

Q: Do you think the final game of last season 

will motivate this year's team? 

A: "I think you always remember your last loss, 

unless you win it all. We have a very hungry 

group of players who are very dedicated, determined 

and driven. That game may drive them a 

little more, but they aren't looking at the past so 

much - they are looking to the future. We are 

optimistic about their chances to do well and 

hopefully that will happen." 

Q: Can this year's team play defense like the 

2003 team? 

A: "I think you can always play better, but last 

year our defending was very good as a unit. We 

were very tight, compact and understood what we 

had to do. This year's team should be able to 

open the game up a little more and be more 

attack oriented. We are certainly going to concentrate 

heavily on defending, but we will spend 

a lot of time breaking people down and moving 

forward to score more goals. We want to be effective 

on both ends." 

Q: What motivates you to coach and have your 

team perform at the highest level? 

A: "You want to see guys be successful, you want 

to see guys make lifelong memories and you want 

to see guys be rewarded for the hard work they put 

in. I've been a player and had success, so I want to 

see everyone in our program smile and enjoy the 

same success. I want to see everyone in at the University 

be proud of the product that we put on the 

field. That puts a smile on my face." 

Q: What makes UK a great place for someone to 

play college soccer? 

A: "We have a great athletic department and 

academic university and outstanding support and 

staff in all areas. We have a great facility and play 

a tough schedule every year. If it was my son or 

daughter, I'd be very happy if they went to school 

here when considering all aspects. It has a lot to 

offer and it is a great environment. It is top quality 

athletics, top quality academics and the people 

are terrific. That makes a great package." 

Q: How did you feel after receiving Men's 

Coach of the Year and Team of the Year at the 

Catspys? 

A: "Coach of the Year I'm not too worried 

about. It's a great honor because we have outstanding 

coaches here on the men's side. All of 

our programs are very competitive. I'm not driven 

by personal goals, so that didn't mean that 

Coach Collins and his staff, invest in their 

players on and off the field. 

much to me. I was happier to see our team get 

some recognition for the hardwork, effort and 

dedication they put in. We won't let them get 

carried away with that, but I was happy for our 

seniors. It meant a lot to them." 

Q: How do you approach a new season in 

regards to playing time, etc.? 

A: "I've seen the level that some guys can produce 

at and I'm familiar with the players that have been 

here, but some players get better and some don't 

reach the peak they had in the past. We try to wipe 

the slate clean with everybody. I'm very excited 

about our incoming class of players. I think we 

have some terrific young players and this year's 

team will be made up a little differently. We'll open 

the game up more and look to score more goals. At 

the same time, we've always been stingy defensively, 

so we certainly aren't going to give that up. We 

look at the players we have and their qualities to 

come up with a system of play that will best suit 

their talent. The start of the season is exciting 

because we are trying to gel people and put them in 

the right spots. Ending in a disappointing fashion 

last year will maybe give us extra motivation, but we 

want to look forward not backwards." 



Assistant Coach Jeff Chaney 

Collins on Chaney 

"Jeff Chaney is one of the backbones 

of our program. He has been with 

me since day one and has really provided 

a stabilizing force with everything 

we do. He is an integral part of 

the program and I'm very happy he'll 

be back with us." 

Jeff Chaney has played an integral role for the 

University of Kentucky men’s and women’s 

soccer teams for the past 12 seasons, 10 of which 

he’s been a men’s assistant coach. 

Chaney was an assistant for the women’s program 

in its first two seasons (1992 and 1993) 

before being named men’s assistant in 1994. He 

has a played a vital role in the Wildcat’s success, 

including the 2000, 2001and 2003 Mid-American 

Conference regular-season titles, the 1999, 

2000 and 2001 MAC Tournament Championships 

and NCAA Tournament bids in 1999, 

2000, 2001 and 2003. 

Chaney serves as recruiting coordinator for 

the men’s team in addition to his handling of 

many administrative and training responsibilities. 

He is also responsible for oversight of the players’ 

academic development. It is the latter area that 

gives Chaney particular pride in the program, as 

the Cats have shown the same kind of success in 

the classroom as on the field. 

In the spring of 2004, the men’s soccer team 

achieved a 3.100. Over the past few years, the 

Cats have had 15 selections to the Athletic Director’s 

Honor Roll, three Verizon Academic All- 

Americans, two NSCAA Scholar-Athlete 

All-Americans, 42 MAC and 51 Southeastern 

Conference Academic Honor Roll Selections and 

two Arthur Ashe Scholar Athletes. 

Perhaps the best indicator of the Kentucky 

soccer program’s dual commitment to academics 

and on-the-field excellence can be found 

in the finalists for the SEC H. Boyd McWhorter 

Scholar-Athlete of the Year Award. Every 

year, the SEC selects two Student-Athletes of 

the Year. A male and female nominee, considered 

the top student-athletes from their university, 

represents each SEC school. For four of 

the last five years, the University of Kentucky’s 

male nominee has been a member of the men’s 

soccer program: Jason Bell in 2000, Giovani 

Fernandes in 2001, Ilkka Jantti in 2002 and 

Chris Austin in 2004. 

A native of Georgetown, KY., Chaney 

graduated from Scott County High 

School, where he earned All-State 

and All-Conference honors and was 

a co-founder of the soccer program. 

In 1984, Chaney received the prestigious 

American High School Athlete 

Award. 

Chaney continued his soccer 

career at Georgetown (Ky.) College 

where he was named to the NAIA All-District 

team in 1985 and was team captain for three 

seasons. He was also awarded the Outstanding 

Senior Award in Political Science 

in 1991. 

Since 1986, Chaney has 

spent his summer as staff coach 

at numerous soccer camps 

across the country as well as 

in Germany. 

Chaney served as an assistant 

boys coach at Lexington Catholic 

High School (Lexington, KY) 

from 1989-1991, helping 

the Knights reach the 

state semi-finals in 

1989. He has also 

worked with the 

Kentucky Olympic 

Development Program 

where he 

was a state 

coach from 

1992-1997 and 

the girl’s state 

coach in 1995 

and 1996. 

Since 1987, he 

has been working 

with the many local 

clubs in Lexington. His 

club teams have reached 

the State Cup final eight 

times, coming away with 

five championships. 

Chaney has received the 

NSCAA National Diploma 

and his USSF “B" coaching 

license. 

Chaney and his wife, 

Marietta, reside in Georgetown, 

Ky., with their daughter, 

Caroline Isabella, who 

was born in March 2001. 



Assistant Coach Matt Wilkerson 

Collins on Wilkerson 

"Matt is one of the top up-and-coming 

coaches in the country. He 

understands the game very well and is 

very driven. He was a terrific player 

here at UK, so he understands our 

system. We are very excited to have 

him join our staff full-time." 

Matt Wilkerson is a first-year full-time 

assistant for the UK men's soccer team, 

after spending one year as a student assistant. 

Wilkerson was a two-year letterman for the 

Wildcats in 1996 and 1997 after transferring 

from Wisconsin-Green Bay after his sophomore 

year. 

In two seasons with the Cats, Wilkerson 

started in 24 of 37 games and helped the team 

advance to the MAC Finals and Semifinals in 

1996 and '97, respectively. As one of the team's 

most versatile players, Wilkerson contributed 

two goals as a junior and three goals as a senior 

in addition to two assists. 

After leaving UK, Wilkerson played one season 

in the EISL indoor soccer league until his 

career was shortened after breaking the tibia and 

fibula bones in his leg. 

In 2000, Wilkerson 

returned to his hometown 

of Iowa City, 

Iowa to become head 

coach at Iowa City West 

High School. It did not 

take Wilkerson long to 

make his mark as a 

coach. In his first season, 

he led his alma mater to the 

Iowa Class 2A State Championship. 

With a state title 

under his belt, Wilkerson 

became the Assistant 

Director of Coaching at 

the Iowa Soccer Club 

from 2000-02.

made two crucial saves to preserve the shutout. UK finished 

the MAC regular season with a perfect 6-0 record 

and became the first team in conference history to complete 

the regular season without relinquishing a goal.

The Wildcats were a perfect 6-0-0 in Mid-American Conference play in 

2003, without allowing a single goal, to claim the outright title. 

What Kentucky did in Mid-American conference play in 2003 was 

nothing short of amazing. The Wildcats didn’t just win the outright MAC 

title for the second time in three years, it dominated conference play from 

start to finish. UK opened the league slate on Oct. 5 at BowlingGreen, netting 

a 3-0 victory and setting the tone for the season to come. 

The Wildcats tore through conference play and finished not only with 

an unblemished record, but without being scored against – not a single 

goal. Sophomore goalie Andy Gruenebaum was relentless in the net, earning 

All-MAC honors. 

Jamal Shteiwi was powerful as well, leading the conference in assists, 

while finishing second in shots and points per game to earn recognition as 

the 2003 MAC Player of the Year. Freshman Riley O’ Neill was an immediate 

impact player as well, finishing fourth in the conference in goals and 

goals per game to earn the title MAC Newcomer of the Year.

2003 Men’s Soccer Season Review 

The 2003 Kentucky men’s soccer season was 

one of the most memorable in school history. 

The Wildcats tied a school record low for 

goals allowed in a season (15), went undefeated in 

regular-season Mid-American Conference play 

for the second time, earned its first at-large bid to 

the NCAA Tournament and played host to its 

first NCAA Tournament game. 

The Wildcats opened the remarkable season 

with three shutout victories over North Carolina 

Asheville, Cincinnati and Western Kentucky and 

earned a No. 7 ranking in the NSCAA Great 

Lakes Region Poll. Two days later, junior Jamal 

Shteiwi battled the flu and fatigue to lift the Cats 

past in-state rival Louisville, 2-1, in a double 

overtime thriller in front of 1,682 fans, the fifthlargest 

crowd in UK Soccer Complex history. 

The win pushed Kentucky’s record to 4-0-0, its 

fourth such start in the program’s history. 

UK was dominant in October, posting an 8-1-0 

record, including its second undefeated run through 

MAC regular-season play. With sophomore standout 

Andy Gruenebaum between the pipes, the 

Wildcats became the first team in MAC history to 

complete regular season play without giving up a 

goal, a remarkable feet that covered over 549 minutes 

of scoreless soccer. 

UK’s only loss in October came at the hands 

of No. 3 North Carolina at the Spartan Classic in 

Greensboro, N.C. Kentucky tied the game 1-1 in 

the 62nd minute of play and held strong until 

Carolina scored on a penalty kick in the 75th 

minute. The Cats scored a second goal late in the 

match, but it was waived off by a foul call. After 

the loss, Kentucky responded by winning six consecutive 

games, including a 1-0 shutout over 

then-No. 12 Akron. 

The Cats’ October run garnered national 

recognition as senior defender Chris Austin was 

named to the Soccer America Men’s Team of the 

Week, Gruenebaum was named to the College 

Soccer News “National Team of the Week” and 

UK entered the national rankings at No. 21. 

Kentucky went on to post a 12-5-1 regularseason 

record and was rewarded with its first 

at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament. The 

Cats played host to Cincinnati in the first 

round of the tournament in what will go down 

as one of the most memorable games in the 

program’s 13-year history. 

The Wildcats and Bearcats played an evenly 

matched game through 110 minutes, in which neither 

team could find the net. In the subsequent 

shootout session, Gruenebaum made a diving save 

on Cincinnati’s first attempt that Coach Collins 

called one of the greatest he’s ever seen. Chris 

Austin, Jamal Shteiwi, Nathan Li and Joey Gaworecki 

all scored on their penalty kicks and UK advanced 

past UC, 4-2, and went on to face No. 5 Indiana in 

the second round of the NCAA Tournament. 

Senior Chris Austin was named to the Soccer America Men’s Team of the 

Week for his great defensive play in October. 

Andy Gruenebaum notched 10 shutouts on the season, including six in 

regular-season MAC play to earn first-team All-MAC honors. 



Riley O’Neill was named the Mid-American Conference Newcomer of the 

Year after leading the team with seven goals scored and 17 points. 

Sophomore Thomas Senecal proved to be a solid backline defensive player. 

He also scored three goals and tallied four assists on the season. 

Playing in its third NCAA Tournament second 

round game in four years, Kentucky pushed 

the Hoosiers to the brink before falling, 2-1, in 

double overtime. The Cats played a man down 

for the majority of the first overtime and entire 

second session. Indiana went on to win the 2003 

College Cup Championship. 

Andy Gruenebaum proved to be one of the 

nation’s best goalkeepers as he notched 10 

shutouts, including six in Mid-American Conference 

regular season play on his way to earning All- 

MAC first team honors. He finished with a 0.68 

goals against average, which ranks as the school’s 

second-lowest in a season. The Overland Park, 

Kan., native also placed 17th in the national rankings 

for goals against average and Kentucky finished 

ninth as a team in the same category. 

With Gruenebaum as the anchor, the Kentucky 

defensive unit stifled its opponents allowing 

goals few and far between. Three matches 

into the season, UK held a 3-0 record with all of 

its wins coming by way of shutouts which marked 

the most consecutive shutouts to open a season in 

school history. The first goal allowed by Kentucky 

came 311 minutes into the season in a 

match against in-state rival Louisville. 

On offense, UK relied on the precise serving 

of Jamal Shteiwi and an array of scoring threats to 

put points on the board and keep opposing 

defenses off-balance. Shteiwi set a single-season 

school record with 13 assists and recorded five 

goals on his way to leading the Cats in scoring for 

the second consecutive season with 23 points. 

The junior was named MAC Player of the Year 

after leading the conference in assists and assists 

per game with 0.62 a contest. Shteiwi finished 

the season No. 10 in the nation in assists per 

game and his 17 career assists ranks second alltime 

in school history. The Cincinnati product 

also was named NSCAA/adidas All-Great Lakes 

Region Second Team 

Mid-American Conference Newcomer of the 

Year, freshman forward Riley O’Neill, was the 

primary recipient of the majority of Shteiwi’s 

record-breaking assists. The Campbell River, 

B.C., native posted impressive numbers for the 

Cats as he led the team with seven goals scored 

and finished second with 17 total points. O’Neill 

scored Kentucky’s lone goal in a 1-0 win over No. 

12 Akron and posted three goals and an assist in 

one weekend in matches against Appalachian 

State and Bowling Green. O’Neill earned Second 

Team All-MAC honors as well. 

Sophomore Thomas Senecal scored three 

goals, recorded four assists and was a major force 

on Kentucky’s backline defensive unit. The 6-4 

defender joined Shteiwi and Gruenebaum on the 

All-MAC first team. 

A rookie from British Columbia, Nathan Li, 

also emerged as a standout in the Cats lineup. Li 

made 17 starts and notched two goals in his first 

season with the team. He made the UK Invitational 

All-Tournament Team, the MAC All-Tournament 

Team and the All-MAC second team. 

Sophomores Joey Gaworecki and Brandon 

Stewart also received All-MAC second team 

recognition. In all, Kentucky received seven All- 

MAC selections, the most in school history. 

The Wildcats finished the season ranked No. 

22 in the final NSCAA/adidas rankings and the 

future looks bright with nine starters and 11 letterwinners 

returning in 2004. 



NCAA Championship History 

Former Wildcat Scot Shewey scored the lone 

goal against Mercer to give UK its first win in 

NCAA Tournament play. 

In 1999, the University of Kentucky men’s soccer 

team reached the NCAA Tournament for the 

first time in school history and set a precedent that 

continued the next two seasons. A year ago, their 

streak of tournament appearances was halted at 

three. In 2003, the Cats look to return to the NCAA 

Tournament for the fourth time in five years 

1999 - First Round 

November 21, 1999 

The soccer Cats’ first NCAA appearance 

took place in Bloomington in 1999 on the campus 

of Indiana University. The second-seeded 

Hoosiers played host to Kentucky, which had 

won the MAC Championship to receive an 

automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament. The 

Wildcats stretched IU to the limit as the game 

remained scoreless for nearly two hours. In the 

second overtime, with the Cats down two men - 

one from injury and the other from ejection - 

Indiana finally got the decisive break when All- 

American Aleksey Korol scored the game-winning 

goal in the 113th minute of 

play. The Cats ended their best season 

since 1995 by making it to 

their first-ever NCAA Tournament. 

The Hoosiers would go on 

to win the National Championship 

that season. 

2000 - First Round 


In their second NCAA appearance, 

the Cats played at ninthranked 

Saint Louis in the first 

round of the 2000 NCAA Tournament. 

The Billikens outshot the 

Cats by a tally of 21-7, but were 

held scoreless by Brian O’Leary’s 

12 saves in front of a strong UK 

defense that chipped in with a pair 

of team saves. Four overtime periods 

could not decide the game, 

which entered the record books as a 

0-0 tie. Per NCAA rules, penalty 

kicks were required to break the 

150 minute deadlock, and 

O’Leary again shined, 

making two key saves and 

netting a PK of his own to 

help the Cats advance to 

the second round. 

2000 - Second Round 


Making their first appearance in 

the second round of the NCAA Tournament, 

the Wildcats travelled to Dallas, 

Texas, to face Southern Methodist 

University. Muhammed Fahim, the 

nation’s leading scorer, led the sixthseeded 

Mustangs to a 1-0 halftime lead 

against the Cats. UK’s Ilkka Jantti captured 

the equalizer in the 74th minute, 

scoring Kentucky’s first-ever NCAA 

goal. SMU’s attack was relentless, 

though, and Fahim completed a hattrick 

late in the game to give SMU the 

3-1 victory. 

2001 - First Round 

November 23, 2001 

Kentucky played its first neutral site 

NCAA match when the Cats traveled 

to Clemson, South Carolina, to face 

the Mercer Bears. The teams played to 

a scoreless tie in the first half, but UK 

came out quickly in the second half 

when Nathan Fleetwood assisted Scot Shewey 

for a goal in the 48th minute. The Wildcat 

defense blanked Mercer to help Greg Raber to 

his seventh shutout of the year, as UK advanced 

to the NCAA second-round with a 1-0 victory. 

2001 - Second Round 

November 25, 2001 

Fifth-seeded Clemson played host to the 

Cats in the second round of the NCAA Tournament. 

The match was even throughout, 

with neither team able to get on the board 

during regulation. Both teams had chances in 

the first two overtime periods, but neither 

squad could catch a break and the match 

eclipsed the two-hour mark. It wasn’t until the 

124th minute that the Tigers were able to 

finally find the back of the net. Kenneth Cutler 

scored the game-winning goal in the third 

overtime period. 

Brian O’Leary led the Cats to the second round 

of the NCAA Tournament with a 

12-save performance in 2000. 



After making a great run in the 2003 NCAA Tournament, the Cat will look to push for its 

first national title in school history. This year’s championship will be decided at the Home Depot 

Center in Carson, Calif. The first four rounds will be played on campus sites, to be determined 

by the NCAA Selection Committee. 

Chris Austin netted a penalty kick against Saint 

Louis in 2000.

2003 NCAA Tournament 

First Round 

T 

Kentucky’s match against Cincinnati in 

the first round of the 2003 Division I 

Men’s Soccer Tournament was an instant classic. 

It was the first time UK had ever played host to 

a men’s soccer NCAA Tournament match and 

the 1,593 fans in attendance could not have 

asked for a better game. 

Cincinnati nearly grabbed an early lead in the 

match when Sam Miller received the opening 

kickoff and fired a shot at UK goalkeeper Andy 

Gruenebaum just 12 seconds into the game. 

Gruenebaum made a heads up play in the box to 

make the save, his first of five saves in regulation. 

“They came at us very hard and you could 

tell the difference in age and experience,” 

The Kentucky team awaits the fifth period of the 

game against Cincinnati - a shootout. 

Coach Ian Collins said. “They started 10 

juniors and seniors and we started one senior 

and a couple of juniors. Our boys were very 

nervous and tentative in the first half.” 

Kentucky managed to shake off the initial 

butterflies to create several scoring opportunities 

of its own. Jamal Shteiwi attempted a free kick 

from 23 yards out in the 20th minute that just 

missed the right post. In the second half, Olli 

Lehtimaki missed wide-right from the top of the 

box in the 49th minute of action. Both teams 

played stifling defense throughout and the match 

went into overtime with the teams tied, 0-0. 

The match eventually went into a shootout period 

after 110 minutes of scoreless soccer. After 

Cincinnati goalkeeper John Adams stopped UK’s 

first attempt, Gruenebaum made the save of his life 

on the Bearcats’ first shot. The sophomore goalkeeper 

made a diving save off his fingertips to deny 

Wiremu Patrick from giving Cincy a 1-0 advantage. 

“(Andy’s) first save was world class,” Collins 

said. “That would have belonged in the World 

Cup. It was the greatest save I’ve ever seen in my 

life. It was unbelievable.” 

Gruenebaum added another save on Cincinnati’s 

third attempt and Joey Gaworecki iced 

the game for Kentucky on the team’s fifth and 

final attempt following goals by Chris Austin, 

Jamal Shteiwi and Nathan Li. UK won the 

shootout session, 4-2, and advanced to the second 

round of the NCAA Tournament for the 

third time in four years. 

“I’m happy for our players,” Collins said. 

“We have all the faith in the world in Andy and 

tonight he showed what he can do. I hate to see 

the game end like this, but those are the rules. 

Somebody has to win and advance to the next 

round. I challenged our players at halftime to 



Andy Gruenebaum’s first save in the shootout 

against Cincinnati was called 

“world-class” by Coach Ian Collins. 

step-up and represent our team, each other, the 

University and the people in the state who paid to 

watch them play better and I think they responded 

in a positive way.” 

Second Round 

Kentucky traveled to Bloomington to meet 

No. 5 Indiana in the second round of the NCAA 

Tournament. The Hoosiers outshot the Cats, but 

Andy Gruenebaum recorded five saves and made 

several key plays in the box to stymie IU scoring 

opportunities throughout the game. 

UK got on the board first in the 27th 

minute when freshman Riley O’Neill netted 

his seventh goal of the season. Jamal Shteiwi 

setup the score by whipping the ball across the 

box that found O’Neill who fired a shot into 

the lower left-hand corner past Indiana goalkeeper 

Jay Nolly. The Cats held a 1-0 advantage 

until Indiana freshman Jacob Peterson 

scored the equalizer from six yards out to tie 

the match just before halftime. 

In the second half Kentucky turned up the 

pressure on defense and limited 

IU to three shots on goal. However, 

the Cats could not find a way 

to score and the game went into 

overtime tied, 1-1. 

The game took on a much 

different look in overtime when a 

Kentucky player was issued a red 

card and disqualified four minutes 

into the session. The UK 

defense unit continued to hold 

strong and forced the game into a 

second overtime period. Finally, 

Indiana’s Greg Badger scored in 

heavy traffic in the 106th minute 

and the Hoosiers advanced to the 

third round with a 2-1 victory. 

“I’m real proud of our team,” 

Collins said after the match. 

“They overcame a lot of adversity. 

My kids gave every ounce of 

effort we asked of them and this 

is a difficult place to play.” 

Nathan Li celebrates 

Kentucky’s win in the 

shootout with the Bearcats. 



The Mid-American Conference 

was founded as a five-school 

league in 1946 with Ohio, Butler, 

Cincinnati, Wayne State and Western 

Reserve as the charter members. 

In 58 years, the MAC has 

stood the test of time. 

The Mid-American Conference 

Soccer League, now with seven teams, consists 

of Akron, Bowling Green State, Buffalo, Kentucky, 

Marshall, Northern Illinois and Western 

Michigan. 

As the nation's sixth-oldest Division I conference, 

the MAC has been among national 

trendsetters. The MAC has been in the forefront 

of national legislation that has enhanced 

the academic integrity of intercollegiate athletics. 

The MAC strengthened admittance 

standards, established an academic progress 

rule and set increased grade point average 

requirements long before the NCAA adopted 

or discussed implementing such academic 

standards. 

Mid-American Conference 

Over its 58 years, the MAC 

has produced a long list of great 

athletes from all sports - a list 

that includes Olympic gold 

medalists and MLB, NFL and 

NBA standouts. 

The MAC Soccer League also 

has produced a number of 

nationally respected athletes. In 2002, several 

MAC players were named All-Region selections 

by the National Soccer Coaches Association 

of America: 

• Jamal Shteiwi of Kentucky 

• Cameron Knowles and Alex Odwell of 

Akron 

• Jeff Hughes and Scott Duhl of Western 

Michigan 

The 2003 season was an historic year for 

the MAC as three teams from the conference 

received bids to the NCAA Tournament for 

the first time in league history. Western 

Michigan earned the automatic bid by winning 

the MAC tournament, while Kentucky 

and Akron received at-large selections. The 

Cats tied Cincinnati 0-0 and advanced on 

penalty kicks, 4-2, in the first round before 

losing to eventual champion Indiana in round 

two. The Zips advanced to the third round of 

the NCAA Tournament before being ousted 

by Maryland, 1-0. 

The 2004 MAC quarterfinals and semifinals 

will be held Nov. 7-9 at Western Michigan University 

in Kalamazoo. The MAC Championship 

game to be held the following weekend at the site 

of the higher remaining seed. 

Kentucky has made a major impact in its nine 

years in the league. The Wildcats have finished in 

first or second place in the standings in seven of 

those seasons, claiming the crown in three of the 

past four years. UK has advanced to at least the 

semifinals of the conference tournament each 

year and won the championship three times. UK 

holds a winning record over four of the other six 

schools in the league and is second in the conference 

all-time versus MAC opponents with a .755 

winning percentage.

(below) The 2001 UK men’s soccer team 

was the first squad to win the 

MAC regular season title outright. 

History of UK Soccer 

(R-L) Ilkka Jantti and 

senior Greg Raber were 

honored at a men’s basketball 

game for their 

outstanding achievements 

in 2001. 

The University of Kentucky men's soccer program 

has steadily climbed to the level of the 

nation's elite since it was established on June 1, 

1991. The Wildcats have been a force on the 

regional and national scene, posting a 146-104-21 

all-time record and advancing to the finals or semifinals 

of the league tournament every season since 

joining the Mid-American Conference in 1995. 

UK's soccer program has produced highlight 

after highlight, from its 1995 1-0 win over Indiana 

in Bloomington to its 2-1 win over MACrival 

Bowling Green in 1997 in front of 3,003 

screaming Wildcats fans at the UK Soccer Complex. 

From Coach Sam Wooten's first Cats squad 

in 1991 to Coach Ian Collins' three consecutive 

NCAA Tournament appearances from 1999- 

2001, it has been an exciting 13 years. 

When UK soccer became a varsity sport on 

June 1, 1991, Lexington native Sam Wooten took 

the helm. He had served as the Cats' coach during 

UK's club soccer 

days, and he was the 

natural choice to lead 

the new varsity squad. 

Known for his big, 

physical squads, 

Wooten racked up a 

28-25-7 record in three seasons at the reins. 

From 1991 to 1996, the Cats called The Cage 

home. The Cage Soccer Field, which stood where 

UK's Boone Tennis Center now stands, placed 

fans just feet from the pitch and the Cats fans 

gave UK a tremendous home field advantage. In 

its five-and-a-half seasons at The Cage, UK put 

up an impressive 34-17-8 home mark. 

In 1994, Ian Collins was brought in by then- 

UK Athletics Director C.M. Newton to lead the 

UK soccer Cats. In his nine years, Collins has 

taken the UK program to new heights, leading 

UK to a 118-78-14 mark. Under Collins, the 

Cats have been consistent MAC title contenders, 

winning the conference tournament title from 

1999-2001 and the regular-season title in '01, 

'02, and '03 and rolling up a 40-11-3 (14-6 tour-

Theriault, Chris McAlpine 

and Ilkka Jantti (l-r) won 

50 games at UK, advancing 

to the NCAA Tournament 

three times during their 

four years.

nament) MAC mark during the past eight seasons. 

In 2001, the Cats ran through the league 

with a perfect 6-0-0 record. UK repeated the feet 

in 2003 and became the first team in conference 

history to go through the regular season without 

relinquishing a goal. 

Collins also was instrumental in the construction 

of the UK Soccer Complex. Opened on 

Oct. 24, 1996, the Complex houses a playing 

field, a practice field and locker rooms. UK has 

been dominant on its new turf, going 38-14-7 in 

five-plus seasons. 

In addition to its successful teams, the UK soccer 

program also has developed a talented group of 

players in its short history. Since joining the MAC 

in 1995, UK has produced 37 All-MAC selections 

and four MAC Newcomers of the Year. UK also 

has been the training ground for 21 NSCAA All- 

Region selections and one All-American.

Fernandes, a Cat from 

1997-2000, was a 

three-time All-MAC and 

two-time All-Mid East 

Region selection.

"The 2003 senior class made a 

significant contribution to the 

program on and off the field. I 

think all the guys will be successful 

off the field and they'll 

be sorely missed." 

— Coach Ian Collins 

On the 2003 Senior Class 

Senior 

Highlights 

2000 

The Cats finished in a fourway for 

first for the MAC regular season championship 

and won the MAC Tournament 

championship outright. 

Kentucky then defeated St. Louis in the 

first round of the NCAA Tournament. 


UK won its second consecutive 

MAC regular season title with an 

undefeated 6-0 record and repeated as 

MAC Tournament champions. Kentucky 

then outplayed Mercer, 1-0, to 

advance to the second round of the 

NCAA Tournament for the second 

year in a row. 

2002 

On Sept. 20, Coach Ian Collins 

picked up his 100th career win as UK’s 

coach. Kentucky finished the season 

with 10 wins marking its sixth consecutive 

season with 10 wins or more. 

2003 

Kentucky went undefeated in the 

MAC and became the first team in conference 

history to complete regular season 

play without relinquishing a goal. 

UK advanced to the second round of 

the NCAA Tournament for the third 

time in four seasons by defeating 

Cincinnati, 4-2, on penalty kicks. 



Rarely does a player come along who makes 

an impact like the one made by Ilkka Jantti. 

The Lahti, Finland, native came to the Bluegrass 

expecting to make an impact, but few likely 

imagined the success he and the Cats would 

achieve in his four years at Kentucky. 

In Jantti’s four seasons, UK claimed a 50-31- 

4 record, three Mid-American Conference Tournament 

titles, two MAC regular-season crowns 

and one NCAA Sweet Sixteen appearance. Individually, 

Jantti proved to be the Cats’ “All-Everything”. 

As a freshman, he was voted MAC 

Newcomer of the Year by the league’s coaches. 

And, as a senior he was second-team National 

Soccer Coaches’ Association of America All- 

American and a first-team Verizon Academic All- 

American to go along with his four all-region, 

four All-MAC, three All-MAC Academic and 

three All-Southeastern Conference academic 

selections. Jantti graduated in May and was married 

in June. He is currently playing soccer in 

Finland, where he is the captain of F.C. Viikingit 

in the Finnish First Division.

Dr. Lee T. Todd Jr. 

University of Kentucky President 

Lee T. Todd Jr. became the 11th 

president of the University of 

Kentucky on July 1, 2001, after serving 

as senior vice president of Lotus 

Development Corp. President Todd 

is the fourth UK alumnus to hold the 

presidency and the first to earn an 

undergraduate degree from UK. 

Since assuming the leadership of 

the university, President Todd has 

overseen the conversion of the university from a 

chancellor system to the provost model and has 

directed the consolidation of several colleges and 

campus units to eliminate duplication of course 

studies and improve the overall quality of academics. 

President Todd has applied his background 

as a successful, high tech entrepreneur by emphasizing 

the university's role as an economic engine. 

At UK, President Todd's vision for campus 

growth led to a record enrollment of more than 

35,000 students in fall 2003. The freshman class 

also was the most academically talented group in 

UK's history. He successfully led the charge to 

provide scholarships to all Kentucky Governors 

Scholars and Governor's School for the Arts students 

and continues to work on increasing overall 

scholarship funding. 

Through his belief that "the campus of the University 

of Kentucky is the Commonwealth of Kentucky," 

President Todd has made community 

outreach a priority at the university. Under his leadership, 

UK was awarded a $22 million 

grant from the National Science Foundation 

to improve math and science education 

in Eastern Kentucky. He also 

developed the Health Education 

through Extension Leadership (HEEL) 

program, a partnership between the College 

of Medicine and its School of Public 

Health and the College of Agriculture 

and its Cooperative Extension Service, to 

assist in delivering valuable health and wellness 

information throughout the Commonwealth. 

President Todd is noted as an outstanding 

leader who emphasizes students, strategic planning, 

and accountability. He has been particularly 

active and successful in working with student 

entrepreneurs, starting an e-Club on campus and 

participating with the Lexington Venture Club. 

A native of Earlington, Ky., he earned his bachelor's 

degree in electrical engineering from UK in 

1968 and his master's and doctoral degrees in electrical 

engineering from the Massachusetts Institute 

of Technology in 1970 and 1973, respectively. 

While at MIT, he received six patents for high-resolution 

display technology and proposed using 

telecommunications and high-resolution displays 

for data conferencing. 

He returned to UK in 1974 as an electrical engineering 

professor. He won several teaching awards, 

including the UK Alumni Association Great Teacher 

Award. He also served on several university panels, 

including the University Senate for seven years. He 

was awarded the Outstanding Alumnus of Kentucky 

Award in 2002 from the Kentucky Advocates for 

Higher Education. 

While at UK, President Todd founded Projectron 

Inc. in 1981 to make projection cathode ray 

tubes for flight simulators. He left UK in 1983 to 

begin product development at a second company, 

DataBeam Corp., which he had founded in 1976. 

In 1990, he sold Projectron to Hughes Aircraft Co. 

and convinced Hughes to move its other CRT 

operations in California and New York to UK's 

Coldstream Research Campus. He sold Data- 

Beam, the world's leading provider of real-time 

collaboration and real-time distance learning software 

and development platforms, to IBM. 

President Todd also co-founded the Kentucky 

Science and Technology Corp., a not-forprofit 

organization focused on increasing 

university research capacity, developing science 

and technology education (K-12) programs, 

and encouraging an entrepreneurial economy 

in Kentucky. He co-authored the initial proposal 

that resulted in Kentucky being selected 

as an EPSCoR (Experimental Program to Stimulate 

Competitive Research) state. This program 

has resulted in bringing millions of 

dollars in research and development funds 

from federal and state matching sources. 

President Todd served on the Kentucky 

Council on Postsecondary Education. He 

chaired the Distant Learning Advisory Committee 

that is responsible for the development of the 

Kentucky Commonwealth Virtual University and 

the Commonwealth Virtual Library. 

President Todd currently chairs the Southeastern 

Conference Committee on Academic Initiatives, 

serves on the American Council of 

Education Commission on Women in Higher 

Education, and is involved with the Business 

Higher Education Forum. 

He is married to the former Patricia Brantley, 

a UK graduate who earned her master's 

degree from Simmons College in Boston. They 

have two grown children, Troy and Kathryn, 

both graduates of UK.

Mitch Barnhart 

Director of Athletics 

Mitch Barnhart enters his third 

year as Director of Athletics for 

the University of Kentucky having set 

a clear course for making Kentucky 

one of the top athletics programs in 

the country. 

When UK President Lee T. Todd 

Jr. selected Barnhart on July 15, 2002, 

Todd proclaimed: “Mitch has deep 

passion for working with students, 

and his philosophies are very much in sync with 

mine on how to run this program. I believe he has 

a well-thought-out vision on how to move our 

athletics department forward.” 

And, that vision has become a beacon for the 

coaches, staff and student-athletes who are inspired 

and motivated by Barnhart’s direction. In two years, 

he has hired five new head coaches, including Rich 

Brooks (football), Mickie DeMoss (women’s basketball), 

John Cohen (baseball), Mo Muhammad 

(gymnastics) and Eileen Schmidt (softball). 

Barnhart has also instructed his staff to seek 

out new revenue streams, and that has resulted in 

the Athletics Board’s approval of fund raising for 

a new multi-purpose recruiting room that will be 

attached to the Nutter Field House and an expansion 

of Memorial Coliseum that includes new 

practice and office space. 

His success is based on a five-principle philosophy 

that he implemented for the University 

of Kentucky Athletics the day he was hired. 

• Operate in a first-class manner 

• Possess great integrity 

• Keep the focus on the student-athletes 

• Provide sound fiscal management 

• Compete for championships in all sports 

Those principles have been the 

guiding force as UK has fully-staffed 

all sports, 

Barnhart’s connection to UK’s 

student-athlete is evident by his 

personal interaction and commitment 

to provide all support services 

necessary to meet the needs 

of these students. UK spends 

$1.5 million annually on its 

nationally-renowned CATS Academic Center. 

Spring 2004 marked the second-annual 

CATSPYs, an awards program designed to 

recognize the very best in UK Athletics. 

Other initiatives begun under Barnhart’s leadership 

include the Big Blue Caravan, which connect 

UK to its vast fan base each spring, a 

revamping of UK’s donor program that has 

resulted in record K Fund dollars, and a 10-year, 

$10-million commitment to fund the University’s 

general scholarship program. 

Barnhart came to Kentucky from Oregon State, 

where he served four years (1998-2002) as athletics 

director. A strong effort in fiscal management 

helped reduce the Beavers’ operating debt from 

$12.5 million to $4.8 million during his tenure. 

He also raised $20 million in capital contributions 

for new baseball and softball stadiums, an indoor 

practice center and a basketball arena renovation. 

Before his tenure at OSU, he worked at 

Tennessee for 12 years (1986-98), the last 

four as Senior Associate Athletics Director. 

Before his term at UT, Barnhart served as 

assistant executive director of the Mustang 

Club at Southern Methodist University from 

1983 to 1986; regional director for the Duck 

The Barnhart Family (L-R): Kirby, Connie, 

Mitch, Blaire and Scott. 

Athletic Fund at University of Oregon in 

1983; and was an intern for the Aztec Athletic 

Foundation at San Diego State University 

in 1982-1983. 

Barnhart, 45, is a native of Kansas City, Kan. 

He received his bachelor of arts degree from 

Ottawa University (Kansas) in 1981 and a master 

of science degree in sports administration from 

Ohio University in 1982. 

He and his wife, the former Connie Brown, 

have three children, Kirby, 16, Blaire, 13, and 

Scott, 10.

research, medical care and community service 

underway at the University of Kentucky enhance 

the lives of people throughout the state, the nation, 

and the world, while its museums, libraries and 

special events enrich the culture 

of the entire Commonwealth. 

Founded in 1865 

as a land-grant 

institution adjacent 

to downtown 

Lexington, UK is 

nestled in the 

scenic heart of 

the unique 

Bluegrass 

region of 

Kentucky. 

From 

i t s 

The University of Kentucky 

A Place to Dream and Succeed 

early beginnings, with only 190 students and 

10 professors, UK's campus now covers more 

than 687 acres and is home to over 25,000 students 

and nearly 11,000 employees. 

Programs 

Students can choose from some 200 majors and 

degree programs in 16 academic and professional 

colleges: Agriculture, Arts and Sciences, Business and 

Economics, Communications and Information 

Studies, Dentistry, Design, Education, Engineering, 

Fine Arts, Health Sciences, Law, Medicine, Nursing, 

Pharmacy, Public Health, and Social Work. 

Rankings 

UK boasts over 80 national rankings for academic 

excellence. Graduate programs in the College 

of Pharmacy, Martin School of Public Policy 

and Administration, College of Law, College of 

Nursing, College of Medicine, College of Arts 

and Sciences, College of Education, College of 

Engineering, College of Health Sciences, and 

College of Social Work are highly ranked in U.S. 

News & World Report's most recent list of the 

nation's best. The College of Pharmacy is third, 

and the Martin School is ranked sixth in the category 

of public finance and budgeting. The College 

of Medicine's Rural Medicine program is 

ranked 20th, the College of Law is ranked among 

the top 50 public institutions, and the College 

of Nursing is ranked 29th. 

Students 

UK's diverse student 

population 

represents 117 

countries, 

every state in 

the nation, 

and every 

Kentucky 

county. 

The average 

ACT 

score 

f o r 

its first-year students is four points above the 

national average. UK students compete successfully 

for the most prestigious scholarships and 

awards, such as the Fulbright, Truman, Goldwater 

and Marshall. UK was selected as one of only 

13 universities nationwide to participate in the 

Beckman Foundation Scholarship program in 

2002. This prominent program allows UK to 

award grants of $17,600 to students to support 

their own research projects. 

Mission 

Since the mid-1990s, UK has pursued an 

ambitious goal set by the State Legislature to 

become a top-20 public research university by the 

year 2020. UK President Lee T. Todd Jr. has 

embraced this goal in a way that promises an 

impact on every Kentucky resident. 

"As the state's flagship institution, the university 

is mindful of its responsibility to help all Kentuckians," 

Todd says. "UK has an obligation to be 

inclusive and accessible to all segments of our 

society by providing scholarships and financial 

assistance to ease the tuition burden. Through 

education, Kentucky will move forward." 

The university is working aggressively to 

achieve its top-20 goal. During fiscal year 

2003, UK faculty received a record-breaking 

total of $222.7 million in extramural funding 

for grants and contracts, including a $22 million 

grant from the National Science Foundation 

to strengthen and reform primary and 

secondary education in math and science in 

Kentucky. The achievement marked the second 

year in a row UK exceeded the $200 million 

level in sponsored project awards 

and placed the university 52nd 

on the National Science Foundation's 

list of all institutions and 

36th among public universities. 



Research 

Research at UK is a dynamic enterprise encompassing 

both traditional scholarship and emerging 

technologies. The Advanced Science and Technology 

Commercialization Center in the center of campus, 

for example, is a hub for multidisciplinary research 

collaboration. It is just one of over 50 research centers 

and institutes across campus, including the wellknown 

Sanders-Brown Center on Aging and Markey 

Cancer Center, where UK researchers are discovering 

new knowledge, providing a rich training ground for 

the next generation of researchers, and advancing the 

state's economic growth. 

Library 

With its well-manicured landscape and landmark 

buildings, UK's campus offers great facilities 

that advance the scholarship of its students and 

the research endeavors of its faculty. The William 

T. Young Library, only five years old, is among the 

world's leading research libraries; its book endowment 

is the largest among public universities and 

ranks second only to Harvard University among 

all universities. Its broad scope of technology 

offers students, faculty and Kentucky residents 

access to the most up-to-date information from 

online journals, government publications, and private 

studies, as well as more traditional materials. 

Medical Center 

The UK Chandler Medical Center, opened in 

1960, is considered one of the nation's finest academic 

medical centers. The faculty, students and 

staff of our young, dynamic Medical Center take 

pride in achieving excellence in education, patient 

care, research, and community service. As one of 

two Level 1 Trauma Centers in Kentucky, UK 

cares for the most critically injured and ill patients 

in the region. The 473-bed UK Hospital and UK 

Children's Hospital are supported by more than 

500 faculty physicians and dentists, 400 resident 

physicians, and a staff of 3,200 health professionals 

committed to high-quality patient care. 

Public Service 

The university is committed to strong public 

service, reaching out to communities across the 

Commonwealth, sharing knowledge and making 

a difference in the towns, cities and lives of all 

Kentuckians. An example is Health Education 

through Extension Leadership, a new partnership 

between the College of Public Health and the 

College of Agriculture and its Cooperative Extension 

Service to enhance extension agents' capacity 

to deliver valuable health and wellness

The University of Kentucky men’s soccer team 

has a tradition of excellence on and off the field. 

In 2002, Chris Austin made the Mid-American 

Conference Academic Honor Roll, and nine UK 

players received the honor the previous year. UK also 

is a member of the Southeastern Conference and had 

13 men’s soccer players named to the SEC Academic 

Honor Roll in 2001-02. Nationally, in 1999 and 

2001, the UK men’s soccer team’s combined GPA 

ranked in the top 10 as compiled by the National 

Soccer Coaches Association of America. 

One of the reasons for UK’s academic achievements 

is the Ohio Casualty Center for Academic & 

Tutorial Services (CATS). The University of Kentucky 

opened the nation’s first academic center for 

student-athletes in 1981. 

Over the years, the services offered by CATS have 

grown, and so has the need for additional space. UK 

responded by constructing a new CATS area, which 

opened in January 1998. The facility is called the 

Ohio Casualty Center for Academic and Tutorial Ser-

vices, thanks to a one million dollar grant from the 

Ohio Casualty Insurance Group. 

The Ohio Casualty Center cost a total of $2.4 

million and was constructed in the old Memorial 

pool area. The new CATS includes: 

•20,000 square feet of space - more than double the 

size of the former CATS facility; 

•a computer room housing 35 computers; 

•a study area which accommodates 90-100 people; 

•24 tutoring rooms; 

•a career development and life skills resource 

center; 

•a community outreach office; and 

•offices for the staff. 

Certainly, a facility is a good start, but any program 

- especially in academics - is only as good as the 

people who run it. And UK is fortunate to have outstanding 

leaders in its academics support system. 

Bob Bradley, Associate Athletics Director for Student 

Services, oversees the CATS program. Bradley 

was named National Academic Advisor of the Year in 

1989 and 1992. 

CATS has a full-time 

staff of 11. In addition to 

Bradley, they are: 

• Barb Deniston, 

Director of Academic Services; 

• Mike Haley, 

Director of Advising Services; 

• Amy Craiglow, Dan Childs, 

Lisa Mattingly, Beth Kidwell and 

Michael Stone Academic Counselors; 

• Martina Martin, Lifeskills Coordinator; 

• D’Ann Blankenship and 

Andrea Tinsley, Staff Assistants. 

“There are not many schools across the 

country that can boast of having an academic 

facility like the CATS Center. CATS 

shows that the University of Kentucky is 

committed to having its student-athletes succeed 

not only on the playing field, but in the 

classroom and in life as well.” 

- Coach Ian Collins 

Student-athletes have access to a state of the art 

computer lab for use with writing papers, doing 

research and other class assignments. 

CATS also employs numerous tutors, from both 

the University and the surrounding community. UK 

has budgeted more than $1 million for the operation 

of CATS in the coming year. 

“We are extremely proud of what we have 

accomplished in the academic arena,” Bradley says. 

“The CATS program is focused on winning in the 

classroom. We look at each student-athlete’s individual 

needs, set goals and develop strategies to attain 

those goals. Our center provides our student-athletes 

with a definite advantage over student-athletes 

at many other institutions. Our goal is to show that 

we care about the student as well as the athlete.” 

For the CATS staff, showing you care means more 

than helping athletes maintain eligibility, graduate or 

win awards. The academics staff also prepares student-athletes 

for life after college with the Wildcat 

Career Development Program. 

The Career Development Program helps studentathletes 

look to the future through a step-by-step 

process, which includes: 

• mentoring and internships, which help 

determine career interests; 

• career counseling; 

• resume writing; and 

• forming a career plan. 

The Wildcat Career Development Program 

works closely with the University’s Career Planning 

and Placement Center in order to provide additional 

assistance when needed. 

The philosophy at the University of Kentucky 

is this: Colleges should be able to provide 

the student-athlete with every 

opportunity to succeed not only in athletics, 

but in academics as well. Looking to recent 

statistics in Academic Honor Roll Selections 

and graduation rates, it is clear that Kentucky 

is standing by its philosophy.

focuses on study skills, time management and the latest 

research techniques.

2002, for the fourth annual Schoolhouse Rock. The floor rumbled and the rafters shook as 

each group of student-athletes took the stage. The athletes performed skits that delivered the 

stay-in-school, off-of-drugs and make-the-right-decisions message that is what Schoolhouse 

Rock is all about. The kids had a good time and so did the athletes. 

(right) The Career 

Development Program 

provides career assistance 

to all student-athletes 

beginning with major and 

career advising with 

freshmen and sophomores 

and concludes with career 

placement for juniors and 

seniors. However, a major 

focus of the program will 

be to assist students in 

obtaining shadowing and 

internship positions related 

to their majors. CATS also 

provides a resume web site 

of all senior studentathletes 

that can be 

accessed by more than 

11,000 companies. These 

activities will benefit the 

student-athlete 

when applying for jobs 

upon graduation.

Outreach 

Buddy Program 

(College of Education) 

Student-athletes serve as role models for elementary 

students at local schools. Athletes help 

younger students develop self-esteem through 

weekly interaction. 

Celebrity Hospital Visitor 

Student-athletes visit patients at local hospitals, 

including rehabilitation facilities and veterans 

hospitals. 

Comprehensive Care 

Student-athletes talk to 12-15-year-old emotionally 

disturbed youths about goal setting. 

Copi-Cat Pen Pal 

Student-athletes who are matched with elementary 

students correspond throughout the academic 

year. As a pen pal to an elementary 

student, athletes encourage students to read. 

D.A.R.E. Graduation Speaker 

Student-athletes give motivational speeches to 

youth as part of the Drug Awareness Resistance 

Education Program. 

UK student-athletes are involved with numerous outreach programs around 

Lexington through “Cats that Care.” 

It is a privilege to be a student-athlete at a 

major university. Among the benefits that 

student-athletes enjoy are significant learning 

experiences that teach important life lessons. 

None is more important than learning to return 

that benefit to individuals in the community 

that have supported and cheered the studentathlete, 

win or lose. 

The University of Kentucky has a community 

outreach program that, when initiated a 

decade ago, was intended to provide support for 

young people. The program was viewed as a 

“one-way” effort with the student-athlete giving 

and the community and schools receiving. But 

as the “Cats That Care” program has grown, 

one of the most notable results is what the student-athletes 

learn about themselves – they really 

do receive by giving. 

The athletic department’s community outreach 

program began in 1990 when, in cooperation 

with the College of Education, UK 

student-athletes “adopted” the fifth-grade class 

at a local school. The program matched UK student-athletes 

one-on-one with school children, 

who in turn, set goals while the student-athletes 

monitored their progress and assisted the children 

in achieving their stated objectives. 

The program was highly successful and continues 

today. “Cats That Care” has expanded and now 

includes many worthwhile projects, including: 

AmeriCorps: 

Athletes in Service to America 

This program addresses the issues of school 

success and violence prevention in hopes of keeping 

youth on the right track. It is sponsored by 

the UK Athletics Association, the Center for the 

Study of Sport in Society, and AmeriCorps, a 

national service project designed to help communities 

meet their education, public safety, 

human or environmental needs through service. 

Ten former UK student-athletes are assigned to 

two elementary schools, one middle school and 

one high school. The corps members work 

between 30-35 hours each week, serving as mentors, 

facilitators and instructors. The corps members 

also conduct interactive workshops in the 

areas of media literacy, conflict resolution, cultural 

diversity and the prevention of violence 

against women. The presentations are conducted 

at local schools, community agencies and summer 

youth programs. 

Hospital Breakfast with Santa 

Each year, UK student-athletes assist the UK 

Children’s Hospital with a special Christmas 

breakfast for children at the hospital. 

Kentucky Excel Mentor Program 

UK student-athletes serve as mentors for high 

school students participating in the program. It 

provides scholarships for students who complete 

the program. 

Partners for Youth 

UK student-athletes helped the Partners for 

Youth organization hold a summer festival for 

Lexington children. 

School Speaker 

Student-athletes visit a number of local 

schools, speaking to children on a variety of topics, 

including the importance of an education, 

staying off drugs and promoting reading. 

Schoolhouse Rock 

An “academic pep rally” in which UK studentathletes 

encourage youngsters in academic and social 

skills through a variety of interactive skits and performances. 

More than 2,000 fourth and fifth graders, 

representing approximately 15 Central Kentucky 

schools, come to Memorial Coliseum each spring. 



In addition to providing the finest in athletic 

facilities, the University of Kentucky 

also provides student-athletes with 

the best in academic facilities. One of the 

most recent additions to the educational 

landscape at UK is the $58 million William 

T. Young Library. 

• Size: The library covers 365,350 square feet 

- more than six football fields. The building 

is five stories high, plus a basement. 

• Shelf capacity: If laid end-to-end, the bookshelf 

space would stretch 198,828 linear feet - 

that’s more than 37 miles of shelf space. The 

shelves will house 1.2 million books. 

William T. Young Library 

• Seating capacity: The library can seat 

more than 4,000 patrons at one time, a 

355 percent increase over the old library. 

The seating on the fifth floor of the new 

library equals the capacity of the former 

library. 

• Computer connections: Every study 

table and study carrel in the library has 

an electrical outlet and a computer jack 

connected to the university’s computer 

system. Virtually the entire library has wireless 

coverage. 

• Flexibility: The library has a state-of-the-art 

electronic infrastructure that will enable UK 

to take full advantage of current and emerging 

technology. In addition, the five floors 

and basement of the structure are designed as 

open, flexible spaces, enabling the library to 

adapt its services and facilities to the future 

changes in needs of UK 

students. 

• Endowment: The UK 

Library has the nation’s 

The William T. 

Young Library 

opened in April 

1998. 

largest book endowment among public universities 

and ranks second only to Harvard. 



Nutter Field House 

T 

he University of Kentucky Athletics Department 

is at the forefront of college athletics in 

terms of indoor practice facilities. Along with the 

UK Soccer Complex, UK also boasts the Nutter 

Field House, an $8.5 million climate-controlled 

structure that is used for winter conditioning. 

The indoor facility features an artificial turf 

football playing field of 108,000 square feet, surrounded 

by a six-lane, 290-meter track. 

Nutter Field House gives the 

UK men’s soccer team a climate-controlled 

training facility. 

One of the most unique features of this 

132,000-square foot, multi-million dollar showplace 

is the electronic netting system. The system 

allows for different combinations of sports to 

practice safely and simultaneously by dividing the 

playing field into multiple practice areas. During 

the fall season, the men’s soccer team has priority 

for training during inclement weather. 

“The Nutter Field House is such a boost to 

our program,” Coach Ian Collins said. “The 

indoor field gives us a great place to work out in 

the winter and the padded turf is a lot easier on 

our players’ bodies. And with the netting system, 

we can have space any time we want it.”

The University of Kentucky is committed 

to providing its student-athletes with the 

very best in athletics facilities. The University 

of Kentucky Soccer Complex is evidence of 

that dedication. 

The stadium, which opened in late 1996, is 

part of a complex that houses a game field, a practice 

field, locker rooms and a training room. Since 

its opening, the Complex has played host to some 

of the largest crowds to see MAC soccer action, 

including the 1998 MAC Tournament. UK also 

hosted the 1999 and 2001 MAC Championship 

games, which the Wildcats won to earn an automatic 

bid to the NCAA Tournament. 

The stadium features grandstand seating for 

more than 1,500 fans. However, with temporary 

seating, the stadium’s capacity exceeds 

3,000, as evidenced by the crowd of 3,003 that 

saw the Cats defeat Bowling Green, 2-1, on 

Oct. 10, 1997. UK ranked 19th in the nation 

in attendance during the 2001 home campaign. 

The grandstand also houses a spacious press 

box for use by the media and professional scouts 

who visit UK. 

The Complex features a lighted international 

regulation-sized playing field of lush Bermuda 

grass. The surface is a modified sand-based 

field with an in-ground irrigation system for 

drainage of rainwater and a sprinkler system 

that allows the UK grounds crew to keep the 

field in top playing condition throughout the 

year. The system makes the field safer and more 

playable in a rain-soaked game. 

The combination of sandy soil and irrigation 

allows UK grounds keepers to maintain a healthy 

and vigorous playing surface. The field is mowed 

every day with a mower designed for golf fairways, 

which results in a field that rivals those of 

professional soccer. 

The combination of practice field and 

lighted game field makes the UK Complex one 

of the nation’s top soccer facilities.

Shively Sports Complex 

& Nutter Training Center 

Shively Sports Complex and Nutter Training Center are multi-million dollar training centers for the Soccer Cats. 

The Kentucky men's soccer team calls Shively 

Training Center its home for strength and 

conditioning. The 2,000-square foot complex is 

under the direction of Coach Stephanie Tracey 

and features a variety of free weight equipment, 

which complements the training philosophy of 

the Shively staff. 

"Our top goal is to create a comprehensive training 

program, which encompasses the areas of speed, 

power, strength, agility, flexibility, balance and nutrition," 

Tracey said. "Through these avenues, we are 

providing the athletes with the tools they need to 

reach their athletic potential while 

remaining injury-free." 

The primary focus of the facility 

is the development of core 

strength using ground-based, 

multi-joint lifting through use of 

the Olympic lifts. By incorporating 

this explosive style of lifting, 

athletes become more powerful, 

resulting in an increase in speed. 

The core of the athlete's body also 

is trained and complemented with 

a variety of lifts, including squats, 

lunges, plyometrics, presses, pulls, 

trunk rotation and abdominal 

exercises. Through the combination 

of these exercises, the athletes 

are better able to reach their goals. 

"We have two goals in the 

physical preparation of our student-athletes," 

Coach Collins 

said. "First, we want them to be as 

fit and as healthy as possible in 

order to prevent injury. Second, 

we want them to be in a position 

to compete physically at the highest 

level. Obviously, these two 

goals go hand-in-hand." 



The Shively Sport Complex weight room 

includes state-of-the-art equipment, from free 

weights to Nautilus machines. 

Another major focus of the strength staff is the 

development of sport-specific speed, agility and 

conditioning. This facet of training is organized 

through different types of footwork patterns, drills 

and linear fitness. While nearly all of UK's 

Olympic sports teams train at Shively, they also 

take part in "Speed School," a twice-weekly sevenweek 

training session in Nutter Field House. 

With the help of staff nutritionist Jill Kindy, 

the Shively staff also helps educate the athletes on 

nutrition and supplement awareness. 

Every squad trains together at Shively, promoting 

team chemistry and teamwork. 

Through this set-up, teams work on mental 

toughness, attacking goals and maintaining a 

positive attitude, keeping everyone moving 

toward a common goal. 

"Shively gives our players a great place to 

improve strength and fitness," Collins said. "The 

difference really shows out on the field." 

The UK training staff organizes a regimented set 

of gender- and sport-specific workouts for Kentucky 

athletes. 



Nike is a proud sponsor of the University of Kentucky 

men’s soccer program. UK is one of a handful of college 

teams with a specific soccer contract. Nike provides UK 

athletes with uniforms, warm-ups, cleats, flats, shorts, teeshirts, 

flip-flops, balls, shin guards, socks, sweatshirts, jackets 

and more. 

Nike prides itself on its superior quality and is committed 

to delivering the best soccer footwear, apparel and equipment 

on the planet. 

From the University of Kentucky to the national 

teams of Brazil, Holland and the U.S, and among clubs 

such as Barcelona and Manchester United, Nike is what 

champions wear.

soccer’s biggest promoters and supporters.

The University of Kentucky Soccer Camp is 

designed to challenge youngsters to improve 

their abilities as soccer players. Training is 

designed to help both individual and team aspects 

of the game. 

Led by the UK coaching staff, the camp provides 

intense individual training by enlisting the 

help of additional college, club and high school 

coaches, along with current collegiate players. 

For field players, the camp stresses passing, 

receiving, finishing and heading, and practice 

these skills in small-sided and full-sided games. 

The camp also provides specialized goalkeeper 

training through a blend of training in fundamentals 

and game experience. 

The camp offers technical and tactical development, 

highly challenging competition and fitness 

training while practicing at the UK Soccer 

Complex. 

The University of Kentucky Soccer Camp 

also provides a seminar for players interested in 

pursuing soccer on the college level. The seminar 

discusses the many sides of college soccer, 

including different levels of play, how to contact 

college coaches, what scholarships and 

financial aid may be available, and information 

on college admissions. 

Prepare for the season with an exciting summer 

of soccer at the UK Soccer Camps.

As the map above indicates, soccer players at 

the University of Kentucky have the opportunity 

to travel and play in many different parts of 

the country. In addition to playing some of the top 

teams in the country, this travel adds to the overall 

experience the student-athlete enjoys during his 

time at Kentucky. On recent trips, the Cats have 

seen Niagara Falls, the Book Depository and 

The Arch in St. Louis provided a backdrop to 

the Cats’ first-round NCAA match in 2000. 

Grassy Knoll in Dallas, the Arch in St. Louis, the 

Strip in Las Vegas, Venice Beach and the Pier in 

Santa Monica, and South Beach in Miami. 

The men’s soccer team participates in many 

top tournaments in the country each year which 

allows its players to play many of the top teams in 

the country. In recent seasons, the Cats 

have played at the IU Classic (Indiana, 

Butler), the FIU Golden Panther Classic 

(Florida International, Furman), the 

IPFW Soccer Showcase (South Carolina, 

UAB), the Nike/Carolina Classic 

(North Carolina, UNC Greensboro) 

and the Ohio State/Nike Classic (Ohio 

State, Penn State). 

Kentucky will begin its road to the 

Final Four in Dallas with some tough 

contests on the road. The Cats open 

the 2003 season at the IPFW Soccer 

Showcase for a pair of exhibition matches where 

they will play Indiana and Michigan State. The 

first two weekends of the season will see the Kentucky 

team play at the Virginia Soccer Classic 

(Virginia, Maryland) and at the Furman Invitational 

(Creighton, Butler). 

The Cats visited Niagara Falls on their trip to 

Buffalo, N.Y., for the 2000 MAC Tournament.
