THE 2002 TOBEBOS 2 Previewing the 2002 San Diego Toreros After finishing the 2001 season ranked 25 th in the nation and ad vancing into the second round of the NCAA Tournament, the USO Vol leyball program continues to gain more national recognition. The recog nition comes with raised expectations for third-year head coach Jennifer Petrie and her 2002 Toreros who will open the season at the Uni versity of Texas Invitational on Friday, August 30th -3 l st . The trip will mark the first of five preseason tournaments for the Toreros. The USO Invitational, September 6th - 7th initiates USD's home schedul e, bringing North Carolina, Northwestern and Montana to the Jenny Craig Pav ilion. The USO Tournament on September 27 th -28th is highlighted with a date against # 18 Colorado State. Tournament formats will also be the setting for road matches with #5 Long Beach State, Fresno State and UNLY. " Our pre Senior Captain's1-r Debra season schedule is Robenson & Noel Frohman very exciting this year," says Petri e. "It is designed to help prepare us to play in the West Coast Conference. By playing ranked opponents early, we should be ready to face the top teams in the WCC." Petrie is continuing a recent tradition at USO that has seen five Torero teams in six years qualify for postseason play. USO has been picked to match last year's finish of third in the West Coast Confer- ence behind #8 Pepperdine and #24 Santa Clara, however Petrie has set the bar higher for her Toreros in 2002. "As this program grows so do our expec tations," comments Petrie. "This year we are striv ing to win a WCC Championship and to take an other step in the NCAA Tournament. We are train ing with no limitations to our success." Seniors Noel Frohman and Debra Robertson have assumed leadership roles as the 2002 Torero team captains. Both players are three time all-conference selections and are expected to be dominating players this fall. Frohman re turns for her senior year after leading the WCC in kills (426) and ranking among the league's best in virtually every offensive category as a junior. Robertson is a fifth-year senior middle blocker that will anchor a Torero line-up loaded USO Will trv and qualifY for their Sixth NCU with young talent. Tournament in seven years THE 2002 TOBEBOS 3 Devon Forster, a sophomore outside hitter from Boul der, Colorado is part of San Diego's outstanding sophomore class. Forster completed her rookie season by being named the WCC Freshman of the Year. Kri sten Hurst, from Bakers field, California, also starred during her first season in San Diego. Hurst served up a conference best 39 aces, helping the Toreros compile a 22-9 overall record. "We expect both Devon and Kristen to play even larger roles as sophomores," added Petrie. "Our young play-" ers will be such an essential part of this team and we are ex cited to see them continue to develop and raise the level of our program." The program loses two key components from a team that advanced into the NCAA Tournament's second round a year ago. Gradu- ated seniors Ali Martin and Lindsey Lampert were record-set ting performers that will be diffi cult to replace. Fifth-vear senior Debra Roberston has Martin was a 299 career blocks team leader that completed her collegiate career as US D's fourth all -time leading setter. Lampert was a first-team All-WCC middle blocker in 2001, leading the league in solo and total blocks. The revamped Torero line-up will feature four true freshmen. Setter Lindsey Sherburne highlights San Diego's group of new play- ers. Sherburne comes to USO after an All-American 2002 prep career at Arch Bishop Preseason Poll Mitty Hi g h School in Toreros will trv and build on a 22-9 Saratoga, California.

THE 2001 TOREROS 14 NCAA Tournament Run Highlights 2001 Season The University of San Diego's 200 I Volleyball season proved to be one of the most successful and one of the most promising in the school's 27-year vol leyball hi story. Led by an accomplished group of veterans that were complemented by some of the best young players on the west coast, the Toreros finished the season with 22 win s and ad vanced into the second round of the NCAA Tournament. "I was thrilled with the outcome of the 200 I vol leyball season," said third-year Head Coach Jennifer Petrie. "It is exciting to see so many young faces contributing so early in their careers. Between the mixture of experienced upperclass men and extremely talented fresh men, USO voll eyball is looking forward to a very bright future." The young faces included the West Coast Conference Freshman of the Year Devon Forster. The 6-1 outside-hitter from Boulder Colo rado was selected as an All-West Coast Conference first team player as a true freshman in 200 I. Forster and teammate Kri sten Hurst, a true freshman from Bakersfield, California ranked one and two in the league in service aces. Freshmen contributions came from defensive special ist Kalae Araujo and Jocelyne Roy as well, both key factors in the Torero's advancement into NCAA Tournament play. With leadership coming from record setting seniors Ali Martin and Lindsey Lampert the Toreros ran through their first five league oppo nents including a sweep of then-#20 Santa Clara. USO would finish the season third in the WCC with a I 0-4 conference mark. Lampert, a senior from Long Beach 2001 senior setter Ali Martin, uso·s California, led the conference 4th leading setter all-time with 104 blocks and was a first team AII-WCC selec- tion. Lampert and the rest of the San Diego offense was assisted by Martin, who finished her career as the fourth al l-time leading setter in San Diego volleyball history. Junior Noel Frohman was the most consistent attacker for San Diego in 200 I. Frohman will return for her senior season after captur ing All-West Coast Conference first team honors in 200 I. Frohman used her 31-inch vertical leap to lead the Toreros in kills with 426 during the regular season and also in digs with a 3.06 average per game. San Diego finished the regular season in third place in the West Coast Conference with a league record of I 0-4. The Toreros have not experienced a losing season in conference play si nce 1990 and have compiled a WCC record of 93-33 since 1992. The Toreros, who won back-to-back WCC Championships in 1997-98, have not finished any lower than fourth in the conference since 1989. In 2001 the Toreros swept Gonzaga, Portland, St. Mary's and San Francisco and split season series with LMU and Santa C lara. San Diego was defeated twice by conference champion Pepperdine. With a 2 1-8 record after regular season play, the Toreros were USO huddles during an improbable awarded a birth into the NCAA Tournament. The se lection would be comeback win over UCSB in the THE 2001 TOREROS 15 San Diego's sixth in school hi story and the fifth in six years. The tournament , seeded USO against #25 ranked UC Santa Barbara in first round action in the Pyramid at Long Beach. It was the first meeting between the two teams in 2001 and it proved to be one to remember. ... The Toreros would start the game with no conviction, dropping games one and two 30-26. USO would come roaring back after being down • 111 20-12 in game three. The Toreros found a way to rattle off six straight points ti>, to win game three 30-28 and stay Jtp\ alive. With their season on the line, the resurgence continued in Fina12001 the fourth set as the Toreros led wee Standings 27-14 and held off a furious Santa wee Overall Barbara rally to win 30-27.
