2010-11 SALUKI TRACK & FIELD

The Saluki cross country team will look to return to form in 2010 as expectations are high on both the men’s and women’s teams.

Despite losing All-American Jeff Schirmer and fellow standout Mohamed Mohamed to graduation, the SIU men return all-MVC runners in Dan Dunbar and Kyle Kirchner for the upcoming season. Both Dunbar and Kirchner will look lead the way as Southern Illinois looks to recapture the MVC crown from Indiana State, who defeated the Salukis at last year’s MVC Cross Country Championship by a single point.

Both SIU and ISU tied for first place in the MVC preseason poll with 74 points each.

“We have developed a nice, healthy rivalry with Indiana State over the last couple of years,” cross country head coach Matt Sparks said. “I expect that to continue again as we challenge each other for the MVC title.”

The Salukis will also usher in a youth movement of sorts, as the team features a total of eight freshmen and sophomores on their roster. Included in the underclassmen are freshmen Cole Allison (Festus, Mo.) and Brian Dixon (Springfield, Ill.), both of whom earned all-state honors during their senior seasons.

“We will look to seniors Dan Dunbar and Kyle Kirchner to be our leaders on the course and in the locker room,” Sparks said. “They both have a great understanding of what we are working towards and how to mentor the younger guys on the team.”

On the women’s side, the Salukis return two top 25 MVC finishers from a season ago in Megan Hoelscher and Emily Toennies. The team also hopes to bounce back from last season’s sixth place finish in the conference and move up in the final standings.

Also leading the way for the Salukis will be senior Toni Whitfield and junior Jamie Pfister, who both competed in last season’s MVC championship.

“We return nearly everyone from last year’s squad but we feel that our front runners improved significantly from last year,” Sparks said. “With Emily Toennies

and Megan Hoelscher chasing after top 5 individual finishes the team should improve upon last year’s sixth place.”

“Jamie Pfister has consistently run in our top five for the last two years and we expect her to make similar contributions again. She finished 20th at the MVC meet in the 2008 and need her to stay healthy and improve upon that finish this year.”

The women’s team also boasts a strong recruiting class with four-time all-Missouri cross country honoree Eileen Schweiss (Festus, Mo.) and Kaylyn Shaw (Riverton, Ill.).

“The women’s team will also need freshman athletes to contribute,” Sparks said. “Eileen Schweiss was Missouri state cross country champion in 2008. Her impact on the team will be seen immediately.”

Connie Price-Smith enters her tenth year as the head coach for Salukis. The 2009-10 season marks her sixth as the director of track and field / cross country and head coach for both the men’s and women’s combined track and field program. She spent her first three years as head coach for the Saluki women’s team. Last season, Price-Smith led the SIU track and field program to one of the best seasons in recent memory, with seven different athletes earning NCAA All-American honors, thrower Jeneva McCall winning the national championship in the discus, and a ninth place finish by the women’s team at the 2010 NCAA Outdoor Track National Championships. In addition, the women’s team won the Missouri Valley Conference outdoor track championship for a second consecutive season, as Price-Smith was named MVC Coach of the Year for the fourth time in her career. Price-Smith guided 35 Salukis to all-MVC honors between the two squads during the outdoor season. Plus, 27 of those athletes qualified for the 2010 NCAA Regionals, with seven advancing to nationals. She also coached several MVC event

winners, as well as 2010 MVC Indoor Most Valuable male athlete Jeff Schirmer. An extremely knowledgeable and well-traveled athlete herself, Price-Smith began her career in Carbondale. A four-time Olympian, Price-Smith is one of the most decorated women’s track and field athletes in SIU history, despite the fact she did not participate in the sport until her senior year. After her fourth and final season as a Saluki basketball player, Price-Smith turned her attention to track and field where she is currently ranked fifth all-time in the outdoor shot put (49-11.05) and fifth all-time in the discus (165-01). In addition to her school records, Price-Smith won MVC indoor and outdoor championship titles, garnered all-conference honors in the shot and was named her team’s most valuable player in 1985. Even though Price-Smith’s time as a collegiate track athlete was relatively short-lived, her success fueled an illustrious career that continues to bear many milestones. After graduating from SIU in 1985, Price-Smith became the first U.S. female athlete in 32 years to win both the shot put and discus at an Olympic Trials (1992). In the shot put alone, she finished first on four consecutive occasions at Olympic Trial Championship competitions between 1988 and 2000. Although she did not medal at the Olympics, Price-Smith had the highest finish of a U.S. female shot putter since 1960 and narrowly missed the bronze medal by just four inches at the 1996

Olympic Games in Atlanta. She is the first U.S. female to have a Top-10 world ranking in the shot put for five consecutive years (1995-99). She was also the first U.S. female to win a medal in that event at a World Championship competition (1995). Throughout her career, Price-Smith has been on 34 international squads. She was a member of four teams at the Pan-American Games, where she won a bronze medal in the discus in 1987; a silver in the shot put in 1991, and a gold in the shot put in both 1995 and 1999; she was a silver medalist at the World Indoor Championship, in Barcelona, Spain; a silver medalist at the Goodwill Games in 1998; and a bronze medalist at the World Cup in 1998. A

member of two World University Games teams, Price-Smith placed fifth in the discus in 1987. In addition, she was on three Goodwill Games teams, participated in seven IAAF Grand Prix Finals and is a 25-time national champion in the shot put and discus. Price-Smith ended her athletic career with personal best in the shot put of 64’ 3” and 212’ 8” in the discus. After retiring from over 14 years of competition as an athlete, Price-Smith continues to experience track and field success as a coach. Price-Smith was named 2005 MVC Women’s Indoor Coach of the Year after guiding the Salukis to their first conference indoor title in 13 years. Since Price-Smith has taken over the helm of Saluki Track and Field, there have been over 30 school records broken. Price-Smith had the honor and privilege to coach on the national level as well. She has served as the assistant coach for the USA National Team at the; IAAF World Junior Championships in Kingston, Jamaica 2004; IAAF World Indoor Championship in Budapest, Hungry 2005; IAAF World Cup Team in Athens, Greece 2006. In 2007, Price-Smith was named head coach for the Pan American Games Team in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and was named to the 2008 Olympic team coaching staff in Beijing, China as an assistant coach for the women’s throws. A native of St. Charles, Mo., Price-Smith was inducted into the SIU Sports Hall-of-Fame in 1990, received the school’s Distinguished Alumni Award in 2001, and was honored as the Administrative/Professional Woman of Distinction in 2007.

2010-11 SALUKI TRACK & FIELD

Matt Sparks is in his ninth year as the distance and middle distance coach of the Saluki track and field program. Sparks also serves as the head coach of the men’s and women’s cross country teams. Sparks has led a resurgence in SIU’s cross country program over the last seven years. In his first year as coach of both cross country programs in 2004, he led the Saluki men to a share of the MVC title. The 2007 and 2008 men’s cross country teams won back-to-back championships. The women produced back-to-back second place finishes in 2003 and 2004, finishing third in 2005 and back at second in 2006. For the men, Mohamed Mohamed won the individiual title in 2006 and teammate Jeff Schirmer won back-to-back individual titles in 2007 and 2008. In 2007, Mohamed built upon his 2006 MVC win by qualifying and competing well at the NCAA Cross Country Championships finishing 77th. In the 2008 post season, the men’s team finished sixth at the NCAA Midwest Regional, Schirmer finishing ninth to advance to the NCAA National Championships where he finished 25th for All-American honors, the first at SIU since 1984. Schirmer then repeated his All-America accolades in 2009 with a 19th place finish at nationals. During Sparks’ tenure as the head cross country coach, he has produced three Missouri Valley Conference individual champions, 18 all-conference, 13 scholar-athletes and an All-American on the men’s side. On the women’s side, the team has garnered four top-three finishes, seven all-conference and 19 scholar-athletes. On the track, Sparks’ athletes have experienced

similar success. In 2009-10, Sparks’ distance crew hauled in numerous conference championship and all-MVC honors. For the men, Stephen Arvanis swept the MVC 800m titles, while Schirmer captured the indoor mile and 5000m championships, while also earning the MVC Most Valuable Athlete at the indoor championships. In addition, Zach Dahleen (outdoor 1500m), Dan Dunbar (outdoor 10,000m), and Mohamed (outdoor 5000m) each notched MVC titles. Meanwhile, both Emily Toennies and Megan Hoelscher were named all-MVC honorees for a secon straight season, while Hoelscher also broke her own school record in the 3000m steeplechase. In 2008-09, Schirmer for the second-straight season, swept the MVC distance titles winning cross country, the indoor 3k and 5k, being named the MVC Indoor Championships Men’s Most Valuable Athlete. During the outdoor season, he swept conference honors in the 5k and 10k, qualifying for the NCAA National Championships in both events. Jason Ordway also earned a MVC title in the 3,000-meter steeplechase, advancing to regionals. On the women’s side, Megan Hoelscher advanced to regionals in the 3,000-meter steeplechase, just missing a bid to nationals. During the 2007-2008 campaign, Schirmer made his first sweep of the MVC Distance titles winning cross country, the indoor 3k and 5k, and the outdoor 5k and 10k titles. Also excelling in 2008 was Dan Dunbar who was USATF Junior National Champion (Columbus, Ohio) in the 10k and went on the place 19th at the World Junior Championships in Bydgoszcz, Poland. In 2006, Ty-Nica Davis placed 13th at the NCAA Outdoor Championships (Sacramento, Calif.) in the 800-meter run. Davis continues to train with the Sakukis as a volunteer coach and saw 2008 Olympic Trials success placing ninth running 2:03.22. Under Sparks’ watch, SIU has qualified an athlete to the NCAA regional meet in every distance event, claiming 24 MVC individual championships along the way.

In addition to what his runners have done on the course, Sparks’ cross country athletes have been successful in the classroom as well. In fact, the 2002-2009 women’s teams each achieved Academic All-America status with distinction, with the 2003 squad earning the second-highest GPA (3.61) in the country. Prior to joining the Salukis, Sparks enjoyed a successful two-year coaching stint at Ohio State, where he also coached women’s cross country and distance. The Lady Buckeye distance crew set school records in the 3000m steeplechase and the distance medley relay under Sparks’ direction. Sparks first started coaching at his alma mater, Indiana University, where he served as a graduate assistant and volunteer assistant coach for three years. He played a key role in the recruitment and development of many cross country and track and field athletes for the Hoosiers. Additionally, he helped lead the women’s program to Big Ten Conference Indoor and Outdoor championships in 2000. Before his coaching debut, Sparks came to Indiana as an athlete on the cross country and track

teams. He gained valuable experience working with national champion and American record holder Bob Kennedy and Hall-of-Fame coach Sam Bell. During his athletic days, Sparks was a consistent scorer at the Big Ten Championships on the track. In 1996, he narrowly missed qualifying for the NCAA outdoor championships in Eugene, Ore., running a time of 14:12.82 in the 5000m. Also, he ran in the top-three for the Hoosier cross country teams for four years. A native of Noblesville, Ind., Sparks earned an education degree in general science and biology in 1997, and a master’s degree in applied sport science in 1999. In 1992, he graduated from Noblesville High School, where he was a three-time top-five finisher in the state cross country meet, and a four-time all-Indiana track and field recipient. Sparks, and his wife, Emily, reside in Carbondale with their son, Samuel, and daughter, Eliza.

Heading into his seventh season as the Salukis’ throws coach is John Smith. Smith group of throwers turned in an impressive 2009-10 campaign, combining for a total of 12 NCAA All-American honors between six athletes. Meanwhile, Jeneva McCall captured the NCAA national title in the discus and four Saluki women - McCall, Gwen Berry, Olga Ciura, and Sasha Leeth each took top eight spots in the hammer throw. During the indoor season, seven Salukis garnered all-MVC honors, including weight throw and shot put conference champions J.C. Lambert and McCall. In the 2010 outdoor season, McCall, Lambert, Jake Deiters, and Joe Paradiso combined to sweep the discus, shot put, and hammer throw at the MVC Outdoor Championships. In addition, a combined 12 throwers advanced to the 2010 NCAA Regionals. As a result, the Saluki throwers were ranked No. 1 in the nation by the Throwers Page. In his first three years at SIU, Smith coached the throwers to 16 Missouri Valley Conference titles and six Mideast Regional crowns between indoor and outdoor competition. Under Smith’s guidance, Saluki standout Brittany Riley was a two-time NCAA National Champion and 2007 USA National Champion in the weight throw. Riley also earned NCAA Indoor National Athlete of the Year honors in 2007. Throwers Amarachi Ukabam, and Mark Milleville were also under Smith’s tutelage. Along with Riley, Ukabam and Milleville were Mideast

Regional titlists in 2006, with Ukabam and Riley holding the meet records in the shot put, discus and hammer. Ukabam was also named the Mideast Regional Athlete of the Year. In his coaching debut at SIU, three of Smith’s throwers qualified for the NCAAs, and he was named USTCA Mideast Region Coach of the Year. Smith also had 12 NCAA Mideast Regional qualifiers and one USTAF Junior National Champion under his tutelage during that time. On the national stage, Smith has coached 25 NCAA All-Americans since arriving at SIU six years ago. Smith and his throwers finished 17th at the 2008 NCAA Indoor Championships, the Salukis’ highest finish in school history. Internationally under Smith’s direction, Riley became the USA National Junior Champion in the hammer in 2005 and was the silver medalist at the Junior Pan American Games in Canada that summer. Riley, along with Ukabam, made the North American Under-23 United States Team and won gold medals in the shot put, discus and hammer at the championships in the Dominican Republic. A native of Portage, Ind., Smith joined the Saluki staff after coaching 19 Big Ten Champions, 19 All-Americans, 12 national qualifiers (24 total events), four regional champions and two NCAA Champions in five years as throws coach at Ohio State University. Smith’s 2004 OSU squad achieved perhaps the finest campaign in his five-year stint. He guided the Buckeyes to five Big Ten crowns and a pair of NCAA Championships. He also had nine All-Americans and three Olympic Trials finalists on that team. Although Smith has coached a slew of magnificent throwers, three that stood out in his tenure at OSU were Dan Taylor, Keturah Lofton and Amarachi Ukabam. Taylor, a nine-time All-American, two-time Big Ten Indoor/Outdoor Male Athlete of the Year,

Ohio State Athlete of the Year and Region V Athlete of the Year, established OSU and Big Ten records in the indoor weight throw. He also set OSU standards in the hammer and discus during the outdoor segment. Most notably, Taylor became the first thrower in NCAA history to win both the indoor shot put and weight titles at an NCAA Championship. Smith also helped establish one of the finest freshman campaigns by an OSU student-athlete, as he mentored Ukabam to Big Ten and NCAA Mideast Regional titles in the discus. A native of Missouri, Ukabam followed Smith to SIU, where she was a four-time NCAA All-American and broke four all-time MVC records in her first season as a Saluki in 2005.
