2017 Media Guide 3 Rasmussen Fitness & Sports Center The Rasmussen Fitness & Sports Center, a 50,000-square-foot building offering a multipurpose fieldhouse with synthetic turf for athletic team practices and intramural sports, was officially opened on Oct. 23, 2012. In addition to the indoor practice area, the Rasmussen Center offers a suspended two-lane running track and a fitness level furnished with cardio, circuit-training and free-weight equip- ment for all Creighton students, faculty and staff. Named for Creighton Director of Athletics Bruce Rasmussen, the facility was made possible by generous gifts from Ruth and Bill Scott as well as several other donors. The Scotts have been long-time supporters and friends of Creighton. In 1995 the Scotts established a scholarship for international students who enrolled in the School of Medicine. The Nebraska natives have deep roots in the Omaha community and have donated millions of dollars to more than 100 different organizations. Rasmussen has been with Creighton for 37 years, the last 23 years as athletic director. During his tenure, Creighton’s athletic teams have risen to national prominence both on and off the field. Since Rasmussen assumed the role of athletic director, Creighton has won 34 regular-season and 38 conference tournament titles, which have helped lead to 78 postseason appearances. Creighton was the only school in the 107-year history of the Missouri Valley Conference to make 15 straight men’s basketball postseasons, and have made the NCAA Tourney in men’s soccer in 24 of the past 25 years. Creighton’s reputation as one of the nation’s top academic institutions is reflected in the success Bluejay student-athletes have had in the classroom during Rasmussen’s service as athletics director. Creighton’s baseball, men’s basketball, women’s basketball, volleyball, men’s and women’s cross country, women’s soccer and men’s “I think the Rasmussen Center is most helpful and women’s tennis teams all have received na- for us simply because of the size of the facility tional awards for their academic success.

4 2017 Media Guide Creighton Sports Complex The Creighton Sports Complex, which includes the Kitty Gaughan Pavilion, is home to Bluejay softball. The sports complex opened in 1988 and was renovated in 2000, while the Kitty Gaughan Pavilion was completed and dedicated in 2001. In 2011, work crews removed the old artificial turf from the softball field as the venue received numerous upgrades that summer. The old turf, which was installed in 1999, was replaced with a state-of-the-art, softball-specific surface. AstroTurf® GameDay Grass™ 3D is the new surface at the Creighton Sports Complex and is designed to play more like real grass than the former turf. The surface also comes with a drainage system. In addition to the new playing field, padding was added to the outfield wall and the center field fence was raised for an improved batter’s eye. The facility now features a new scoreboard as well, located beyond the right field fence. In 2006, the softball field added a section of chairback seats behind homplate and an enclosed press box. The Kitty Gaughan Pavilion provides several amenities not just for the baseball and softball programs, but for the entire athletic department. The Pavilion contains offices, locker rooms and indoor batting cages for both programs. It also contains a training room, an umpire locker room, a kitchenette, concession area, public restrooms, furnished lounge area with televisions, an indoor viewing area and viewing deck for season ticket holders. In 2000 Jackie Gaughan generously supported the construction of CU’s baseball and softball indoor complex and he requested that the building be named in honor of his mother, Kitty. The Kitty Gaughan Pavilion was formally dedicated on Oct. 27, 2001.

Facebook.com/creightonuniversity Because of Creighton’s location atop a bluff, the team was occasionally designated unofficially as Facebook.com/gocreighton the “Hilltoppers,” but the name lost favor because at least six other teams in the country went by the Twitter.com/creighton same nickname. At the behest of Creighton’s Athletics Board and Alumni Association, the Omaha Bee Twitter.com/gocreighton newspaper coordinated a public contest in late 1923 to select a nickname and mascot for Creighton University athletic teams. After reviewing 200 entries, the Athletics Board decided upon “Bluejays” because the color of the bird was in keeping with school colors. The Bluejays were originally depicted by an ornithologically correct rendition of the bird. In 1941, Creighton alumnus Joseph P. Murphy, a 1931 graduate of the College of Business and, at the time, a Creighton journalism professor and the head of its public relations department, designed a graphical image of the bird with a more human stance and expression. Murphy’s 1941 design remained largely intact for the past 72 years with only minor revisions. While it is unclear on the exact year the first walking costume mascot modeled after Murphy’s 1941 graphical image appeared publicly or the first time the image or mascot were referred to as “Billy Bluejay,” many costumes were created, changed/ re-designed over the past seven decades as Billy became a fixture at Creighton Athletics events, roaming the sidelines to cheer on his beloved Bluejays.

After serving as associate athletics director for two years, 1992-94, Rasmussen was named athletics director on Aug. 1, 1994. A native of Webster City, Iowa, Rasmussen and his wife, Jill, have five children: Megan, David, John, Katie and Grace.
