September 16th, 2011 WESTERN CAROLINIAN SPORTS Wagner hoping for success in his fourth WCU football season Ryan Alexander, Staff Writer There is a nip in the air, and the green expanses sur- rounding Western Carolina Universitys campus will begin to change any day now. The fall has started to come on strong, and it can only mean one thing: foot- ball season is getting into high gear. _ The Western Carolina University football team has already kicked off their 2011 football campaign, the fourth under head coach Dennis Wagner. The season started with a 63-21 defeat at the hands of the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets. The home opener proved a little bit better for the Catamounts as they made the Mars Hill Moun- tain Lions leave with a 52- 31 loss. Wagner entered this sea- son with a 7-27 record at the helm of the Catamounts, with a 2-9 record last sea- son. This season is full of optimism for the Cata- mount football team. With 14 returning seniors, a new high-powered offense that has taken elements. from the Oklahoma Sooners and Nevada Wolf Pack Pistol formation, everything is in place.for a breakout year for the football program ac- cording to Wagner. _, This is the best team we have had while Ive been here, Wagner said, We are a young team with lots of depth all across the field. He mentioned the teams strengths to be the depth at a multitude of positions, the underclassmen who have significant playing experi- ence, and the wealth of con- ditioning that will insure the team is fresh at the end of games. Key players for this years team include Brandon Pechloff at quarterback, pre-season All-Conference wide receiver Deja Alexan- der, and senior linebacker Ricky Schwarz. . Wagner also mentioned WCUs bigger, . stronger offensive line, along with a strong defensive line led by Trey Selby. and Andre Shishkin. The Catamounts face a difficult schedule this sea- son, headlined by nationally PHOTO BY MARK HASKETT Wide Receiver Jacoby Mitchell rushes past a Mars Hill player during Western Carolina University's 52-31 win in the second game ee, the season. ranked teams (#2) Georgia Southern, (#3) Appalachian State, (#9) Wofford, and out of conference foe Coastal Carolina. The Catamounts have six home contests this year, and Wegner said that using the home field ad- vantage will be a key to the season. His main goal for the Catamounts this season is capturing a conference championship, something Western Carolina has nev- er done in football. Other goals include continuing to get better, winning games early in the season to build for the crucial games in Oc- tober and November, and winning at home after going winless at home last year. The next home game is Oct. 1 against Furman. Womens soccer team is going to be exciting to watch, coach says dg Michaud, Staff Writer Western Corotind Uni- - versity womens head soc- cer coach Chad Miller and his team are looking to rebound from last years disappointing season and make the playoffs this year. Last season did not go so well, but I have high ex- pectations for this season, Miller said. We have an athletic group with potential to do well. The team finished last year with an overall re- cord of 5-10-4, 2-6-3 in the Southern Conference record. Though Miller was an assistant coach at WCU for three years (2006-2009), ~ this will be his second season as head coach. He has previously coached at Pfeiffer University and Ca- tawba University where he earned a career record of 100-66-16. Miller also has a conference record of 62- 26-10. Coming off a win against - Winthrop, the team stood at - 4-1-1 as of press time. Last year was tough, - Miller said. We had no re- cruiting and a fairly young team. I tried to start build- ing a foundation oe year. UNC Greensboro won _jthe conference title last year and is favored to do so again this season. Though last years team was young, this years team may be younger. Miller is starting six freshmen and has nine freshmen playing. | He is excited to have red- shirt juniors Kayla Beauduy and Samantha Hodge re- turning to the lineup. Beauduy and Hodge missed all of last season due to surgery. nu Im. excited for these girls to come back, they provide much needed lead- ership and experience to the team, Miller said. Despite losing four se- niors last. year and only playing with one this year, Miller is confident the younger players will lean on the upperclassmen lead- ership. We have a very young team, but I am excited, Miller said. We have a lot of talent on our team, its just a seis of getting eX- perience. Miller believes the teams strength is the depth they have on their roster. We have two, three players deep on every po- sition which leads to com- petitiveness, something we lacked a lot last year. That would be: our biggest strength, Miller said. Our biggest weakness however would be our lack of expe- rience. Most of these fresh- men girls lack college expe rience on the field. Miller has identified three specific goals for his team. Our conference is as strong as it ever has been so we need to play hard, Mill- er said. I have three goals in mind: make the playoffs, win our home games, and for the girls to maintain an academic GPA of 3.4-3.6, somewhere in that range. . Out of the 12 teams in the conference, 8 of thm make the playoffs. T think we are going to be exciting to watch this year, Miller said. I en- courage all the fans to come out and support us; we both appreciate and need it. Glover takes helm of first Western Carolina volleyball season Ryan Alexander, Staff Writer ', A new era of Western ' Carolina University volley- . ball is underway. The Lady Catamounts is ' now under the leadership of Karen Glover, a coach with 11 years of head coaching | experience prior to com- ing to Cullowhee. She has ' previous coaching experi- ence as the head volleyball coach at Phoenix College and Arizona Western Col- -. lege. Directly prior to com- ing to Western Carolina she was the assistant volleyball coach at the University Lou- isiana-Monroe. _ Last season ended on a sour note for the Lady Cata- mount volleyball program, as the previous head coach _ Manuel Concepcion stepped down abruptly in the off _ season. ' As of press time, the Lady Catamounts had a record of 2-5. The team re- turns five players from last years 6-26 season, including three seniors. Glover is looking for- ward to her first season at the helm of the Catamount volleyball team. She said that the youth of the team is infectious, and that the eight freshmen on the roster bring energy to practices and games that the whole team feeds off of. She cited some team strengths as the chemistry of this group, the girls have really bonded and are work- ing very well together. Key players for this year include seniors Carrie Mi- nogue and Rebecca Stoltz, who are middle blockers, and Brittany Lysik, who is a setter. Glover prided Lysik for being willing to switch po- sitions at the tail end of her collegiate career, as she is playing the position of set- ter for the first time since her freshman year in high school. Glover has set numerous goals for her first year as the head coach of the Western Carolina volleyball pro- gram, including changing the culture of the program. The seniors on the roster have gone through three head coaches in four years, and Glover is trying to put. an end to the mindset that the program is constantly in limbo from coach to coach. Another goal Glover mentioned is focusing on the teamwork and chemistry within the program, so that this season sets a foundation for years to come. The Catamounts have home matches Sept. 24 and 25 versus Chattanooga and Stamford, respectively. Both, teams are Southern Confer- ence opponents. PHOTO BY MARE HASKRETT
