Stanford Field Hockey Stanford Athletics— Home of Champions 2002 Stanford Field Hockey Stanford Athletics— Home of Champions “Home of Champions.” Those are the bywords for the Stanford University Athletic Department. And for good reason. No athletic department in the country can boast of the kind of success that Stanford has accomplished since the 1980s. NCAA team champions. NCAA individual champions. Olympic medalists. Stanford University athletes have been all over the world capturing championships. The statistics speak for themselves Stanford University has won 66 NCAA team championships since 1980, the most in the nation; Cardinal athletes have won 43 NCAA championships since 1990—again the most in the nation. Stanford has brought home 19 NCAA champi- onship trophies the past five years, including an unprecedented six NCAA team titles in 1996-97. In 1991-92, Stanford athletes took home 29 individual NCAA titles—an NCAA record. Cardinal athletes won 21 individual championships during the 1992-93 season, the second most in history. Even more impressive is Stanford’s string of eight consecutive Sears Directors’ Cup titles (1995-02). The award honors the nation’s top overall athletic program and with eight straight #1 finishes, it’s no wonder Stanford is considered the dominant athletic program in the nation. Stanford captured its eighth straight Sears Directors’ Cup in 2001-02 with 1499 points, winning the honor by 388.5 points over second place Texas. The Cardinal won a total of four NCAA team crowns with championships in women’s tennis and women’s volleyball, as well as men’s and women’s water polo. The Cardinal added second place national finishes in men’s cross country, men’s swimming and synchronized swimming. A total of 11 Stanford teams finished among the nation’s Top Five and 22 among the Top 10. The Cardinal also picked up 18 individual NCAA titles and 14 team conference championships. In 2000-01, Stanford won an NCAA team championship in women’s tennis and had 15 teams finish in the top five nationally. The Cardinal also had 20 teams place among the top 10 and 26 among the top 25, to go along with 14 individual national champions and 12 conference titles. Stanford has now won at least one NCAA team championship for 26 straight years. Cardinal teams have also won four or more NCAA team titles in a single year nine times, an NCAA best. All totaled, Stanford has won 93 collegiate team titles (83 NCAA championships) and 367 NCAA individual titles. Cardinal women have won an NCAA-best 29 team championships while men’s teams have captured 54 NCAA team titles, third best in the nation. Overall, Stanford’s 83 NCAA team championships rank second in the nation. In the last 10 years (since 1992-93), Stanford has claimed 37 national team championships and 34 NCAA team titles–the best in the country. Stanford has also enjoyed unequaled success in Olympic competition. Stanford was represented by a total of 34 athletes and coaches at the 2000 Summer Games in Sydney, Australia. The Cardinal contingent won a total of 10 medals — four gold, three silver and three bronze. At the 1996 Games in Atlanta, Stanford placed 49 coaches and athletes on Olympic teams, accounting for 16 gold medals, one silver and one bronze. Cardinal athletes earned 19 medals (10 gold, four silver, five bronze) during the 1992 Games in Barcelona with 38 Stanford-affiliated athletes and coaches participating. Some of the great student-athletes in Stanford history include Tiger Woods and Tom Watson (golf); John McEnroe, Roscoe Tanner and Tim Mayotte (men’s tennis); Kim Oden and Kristin Klein (women’s volleyball); Kristin Folkl (basketball/volleyball); Jack McDowell and Mike Mussina (baseball); Julie Fowdy (women’s soccer); Hank Luisetti, Brevin Knight and Mark Madsen (men’s basketball); Jennifer Azzi and Kate Starbird (women’s basketball); Jim Plunkett, John Elway and Troy Walters (football); Debi Thomas (figure skating); Eric Heiden (speed skating); and the great Ernie Nevers (football); to name a few. It’s no wonder Stanford University is often referred to as the “NCAA’s Champion of Champions.” Table of Contents Cardinal Quick Facts . 1 2002 Season Outlook . 2-3 Head Coach Sheryl Johnson . .4 Assistant Coaches: Lesley Irvine, Rebecca Shapiro and Patrick Burrows . 5 2002 Roster . 6 Varsity Field Hockey Turf . 6 2002 Player Profiles . 7-11 2001 Season Review . .12 2001 Results and Statistics . .13 2003 Stanford Field Hockey Camp . 14 Stanford Stands Out . 14 Stanford Field Hockey Honors . 15 Stanford University . 16 Stanford Athletics— Home of Champions .

The Cardinal will also be looking for its third NorPac Tournament title when the Cardinal hosts the eight-team event for the second time in its five year history. “We are excited about the 2002 campaign and being the host for the NorPac Championships,” said head coach Sheryl Johnson. “We have continued to make significant progress over the last few years and a lot of the players on this team have been responsible for our progression.” Senior tri-captains Amanda Billmyer, Christina Williams and Tysie Sawyer will key the 2002 team in three primary positions on the field. Billmyer will look to be the team’s primary offensive player, bringing career totals of 31 points and 55 starts into her final collegiate campaign. Williams is hoping to cap an outstanding collegiate career in the midfield. She has started 42 of the team’s 43 contests over the past two years and has played in 59 of 61 possible games during the first three years of her career. Williams has proved not only to be a force in the middle but also an offensive threat with 22 career points. Sawyer is expected to anchor the team’s defensive efforts after starting 42 of 43 games over the past two years. Last year, she played a key role in leading the Cardinal to the nation’s second-best defensive unit with an 0.95 GAA. Defenders Amrit Chima, Liz Ott and Lauren Steward complete the six-player senior class that must attempt to lead the way in filling the shoes of the team’s top two scorers (Erica Swesey, Melissa Stai), as well as defensive standouts Rebecca Shapiro (goalkeeper), Sara Herman and Melita Sawyer. The first four completed their collegiate careers in 2001 by earning either First or Second Team All-NorPac honors. 2 Go Stanford Field Hockey! Chima and Ott were both starters for the Cardinal in 2001, combining for nine points in 34 starts between the pair. Chima has also scored 20 points over her first three collegiate seasons. Forward Noor Dawood is the team’s final returning starter from a year ago and leads a junior class that will be expected to move into a primary support role for this year’s seniors. Dawood contributed four points last year and has 15 career points. The junior class is completed by defensive players Dani Guernsey and Vicki Ward, as well as forward Keely Machmer-Wessels and goalkeeper Emily Zander. Zander will step into the cage at the start of this year. She’s been working hard and while she has big shoes to fill, she’s more than up to the challenge. Forward/midfielder Eleanor Morgan and forward Molly Melcher make up the team’s sophomore class. Morgan will be looked upon to help pick up some of the slack in the scoring department after the graduation of Swesey, the team’s lead- ing scorer for the last two seasons and a Regional All-American in 2001.
