1 D.J. Sokol Arena Inside the Wayne and Eileen Ryan Athletic Center

On Oct. 16, 2007, an important milestone was reached when Creighton broke ground for a new on-campus facility at the northeast corner of 19th and Webster – just north of Michael G. Morrison, S.J., Stadium – thanks to the generous donations of Wayne and Eileen Ryan and family and Dave and Peggy Sokol.

D.J. Sokol Arena inside the Wayne and Eileen Ryan Athletic Center is a 75,000 square-foot facility, that houses a gymnasium holding 2,950 fans, as well as coaches’ offices and locker rooms for women’s basketball, volleyball, men’s soccer, women’s soccer, baseball and softball. It also houses areas for ticket- ing, athletic training, meeting rooms, media workrooms, hospitality func- tions and additional academic space. The arena is also being used for other campus and community events, including assemblies, coaching camps and clinics, concerts, speakers and high school graduations.

Wayne and Eileen Ryan and their family have been long-time supporters of Creighton University. Wayne Ryan, BS'49, MS'51, chairman and CEO of Streck Laboratories, Inc., began his career teaching at Creighton before pursuing The Ryan and Sokol familes were honored during the dedication of the facility at intermission of the Creighton vs. Texas Tech volleyball match his passion for research that led to the founding of his company.

Dave and Peggy Sokol are honoring their son, D.J. Sokol, who died in 1999 following a battle with Hodgkin’s disease, by naming the gymnasium the D.J.Sokol Arena. Sokol serves as chairman and CEO of MidAmerican Energy Holdings Company, a glob- al leader in the production, supply and distribution of ener- gy from diversified fuel sources and recently served on Creighton University’s Board of Directors. D.J. Sokol “We have been searching to find a more suitable venue for women’s basket- ball and volleyball competitions for some time,” said Creighton athletics director Bruce Rasmussen. “Visionary donors like the Ryans and Sokols make our dreams of an even stronger athletics program, championed by intense- ly loyal fans, more of a reality. This Bluejay spirit is a unifying characteristic that enhances the institution’s visibility and reputation.”

The facility was fully funded by private monies and is home to Bluejay vol- Wayne and Eileen Ryan pose with Billy Bluejay at the groundbreaking leyball and women’s basketball. for the Wayne and Eileen Ryan Athletic Center and D.J. Sokol Arena.

4 Omaha, Nebraska

Think of Omaha as center court: a dynamic and unique destination in the center of the country, full of action. Omaha has this special spirit that fills the city like an arena full of fans whose team just won with a buzzer beater. Excitement abounds for what it has built, what it has accomplished and what’s still ahead. It’s a spirit born on the banks of the Mis- souri River, a city founded in 1854 by land speculators convinced they were at the heart of something new. Soon after, the transconti- nental railroad was built and Omaha emerged as a hotbed of activity and new technologies. There is a great story about Omaha’s growth in the early days that really speaks to the pioneering spirit of the city. As Omaha prepared to lay underground cables for tele- phones, workers were trying to figure out the easiest way to string the lines. Being an inven- tive bunch, Omahans solved the problem by getting ferrets to help carry the lines through A view of the Omaha skyline at night.

7 Alumni Testimonials

Emily Greisch (2003-06) Creighton Degree: 2007 in Nursing

“Playing volleyball at Creighton was one of the best decisions that I have ever made. I loved everything that we did together. I loved the practices, the matches, the road trips, and most of all the teammates and friends that I have made throughout my four years. “I learned so much during my time at Creighton. I got a great edu- cation in the classroom and learned many life lessons from the team. I really was able to grow as a person. I have taken so many skills that I learned while playing volleyball into my career as a nurse now. Being a student athlete really helped me to understand being a true team player and it also helped me use time-management skills. “I am so grateful for the wonderful coaching staff and the lasting friendships with my teammates. I am very excited to have been a part of Creighton volleyball's history and to see the great places the team will go in the future!” Katie Mehal (2004-07) Creighton Degree: 2008 in Marketing & Graphic Design

"When I look back at all the decisions I made, my choice to play volleyball for Creighton is by far the one which has influenced me the most. As I look back, I remem- ber all of the practices and matches, but what I value most were the lessons I learned with the family I became a part of. “As I pushed myself to become a better player, I learned discipline, hard work and perseverance. As I trav- eled and missed class,I learned responsibility and time- management. And as I grew throughout my four years, I learned that you can learn life skills from things other than volleyball, but the friendships – they last a lifetime."

Leah Ratzlaff (2002-05) Creighton Degree: 2006 in Psychology

“I had never even heard of Creighton when I was recruited, and now I can't imagine my life without Creighton volleyball. Being part of this program created some of the best memories I will ever have and also introduced me to some amazing peo- ple who I know I will be friends with for the rest of my life. “The team is going to be making some huge strides this season and in the next few years. The NCAA tournament is def- initely within their reach. I'm just glad I'll be able to say I was there to help build the foundation and get it all started. “I truly feel that playing volleyball has made me the person I am today. Not only did it take some qualities I already had and improve on them, like competitiveness and determination, but being part of this program also helped me develop new skills, like leadership and time-management, that will be equally as valuable in the future.”

What has the Ryan Athletic Center/D.J. Sokol Arena meant to your program? “For the first time since our staff’s been here we have a home court advantage. First, the atmos- phere in the arena is truly awesome. Combine the band, dance team, Blue Crew and fans and it is a tough place to play. Second, we get to practice there and I think that’s been key to us from a serv- ing and passing perspective and just a better com- fort level for the players. Finally, winning begets winning. I think our players have the expectation that you protect your home court and our kids did that, especially in the conference season.”

What are you looking for from prospective has all of those components. Last year’s record was a little deceiving because student-athletes interested in your program?
