HUSKIES Gameday 5 HUSKY PROFILE / JOHN ANDERSON

by Mason Kelley

he day is Oct. 6, 2001, and USC’s has brought to a whisper a nervous crowd of 72,946 at Husky Stadium, hitting receiver with a 58-yard touchdown pass to tie the Huskies at 24-24 with 3:47 remaining in the fourth quarter. After the ensuing kickoff leaves the Huskies with 65 yards between victory and defeat, the Washington offense starts its drive. All eyes focus on quarterback Cody Pickett and his quick passes to the sidelines, and on Willie Hurst’s shake-and-bake moves which earn the Huskies precious yards. All eyes but two, that is. John Anderson has his attention focused on the ball in front of him, drilling it into a net repeatedly in anticipation of the moment to come. A few Pickett passes and Hurst runs later and the Huskies are at the Trojans’ 16-yard line, with just three seconds remaining. Anderson’s eyes turn towards the goalposts. The game, now, is his to win. Fans fidget anxiously, twisting their game programs in nervous anticipation of the kick. Senior Larry Tripplett begins removing John Anderson tape from his ankles — he’s seen this before. Several players hold hands on the sidelines. The eyes of 72,946 are upon him, but John Anderson is in a world of his own. game.

I wasn’t following a superstar and the team need- ed a kicker really bad, so it was a good oppor- tunity.” Anderson’s time at Washington has been a series of highs and lows. Kickers are in a no- win situation: since kickers are expected by fans to make each field goal, successful conver- sions generally garner only polite applause, and sighs of relief. Misses, however, elicit groans and occasionally, boos, as fans lament failure at the “easiest” part of the game. Except in rare occasions, it is impossible to exceed fans’ expectations — you can only meet them, or fall short. It takes the right personality to be able to handle that kind of pressure, and Anderson takes it all in stride. “Everyone misses a block or a tackle, but they get several more plays to make up for it — I only get four or five chances a game to do my job,” he says. “When I miss, I forget about it. I look at it like, ‘Hey, I messed up.’ For every one field goal I miss, I know I have to make two to Anderson, who also handles kickoffs, has 39 career field goals, third all-time at vindicate myself.” Washington, while his 56-yarder against UCLA in 1999 equaled the school record.

Husky football fans and casual sports followers alike have quickly embraced Neuheisel for the spark he has added to Washington’s sto- ried football tradition. As a public speaker, he is in high demand. Neuheisel has spoken at numerous fundraising events and generated lofty contributions with his charismatic speeches and penchant for innovative fundraising ideas. Neuheisel took over the Washington program in January of 1999 after serving as the head football coach at Colorado from 1995 to 1998. His six-year coaching record now stands at 59-24 (.711). Washington is the second head coaching position for the 41-year old Neuheisel, who spent seven seasons as an assistant coach prior to securing the Colorado job. He worked six years at his alma mater, UCLA, under his college coach , and was an assistant coach for one season on Bill McCartney’s staff in Boulder. He was named the head coach at Colorado on Nov. 29, 1994. At Colorado, Neuheisel compiled a 33-14 (.702) record and was 3-0 in postseason bowl games. All three of his bowl games were against Pac-10 Conference opponents.

The 1986 season was Jones’ best, as he amassed 31 receptions for 309 yards and five touchdowns. A first-team All-Pac-10 and honorable mention AP All-America selection in 1986, Jones played three years in the NFL, including a brief stint with the Seattle Seahawks in 1989. HUSKIES BY THE NUMBERS

It attracts what many consider the finest applicant pool in Tthe country, generates an ethnically and culturally diverse student population on campus, and provides one of the finest undergraduate and graduate learning experiences in the world today. The Berkeley campus is renowned for the size and quality of its libraries and laboratories, the scope of its research and publications, and the distinction of its faculty and students. National rankings consistently place Cal’s undergraduate and graduate programs among the very best. The faculty includes eight Nobel Laureates, 122 members of the National Academy of Sciences, 19 MacArthur Fellows, 81 Fulbright Scholars, three Pulitzer Prize winners and more Guggenheim Fellows (137) than any other university in the country. The quality of Cal’s diverse and independent student body complements the stature of the facul- ty. More than 31,000 students annually enroll at Cal. Of these, about 22,000 are undergraduates, while about 9,000 are graduate students. Students Dr. Robert Berdahl come to Berkeley from all over California, in addi- Chancellor tion to every state in the union and more than 2,000 students from 75 countries around the world.

42 HUSKIES Gameday THE UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON A Proud Tradition of Academic Excellence

ounded in 1861, the University of Washington is one of the foremost institutions of higher education in the nation, richly combining its Fresearch, instructional and public service missions. Its internationally acclaimed faculty includes five Nobel Laureates and the winner of the 1990 National Book Award for Fiction. Washington is part of an elite group of research universities whose contributions to American life are unique because they generate the basic knowledge upon which practical innovations are based. The UW student body on the Seattle campus totals about 37,000, with an undergraduate enrollment of approximately 26,800. The UW also has campuses in Bothell and Tacoma, designed primarily for upper division (junior and senior) undergraduates and master’s level graduate programs. Total enrollment at these campuses is about 3,600. For more than 30 years, the university has been among the country’s top five institutions in the dollar value of federal research grants and con- tracts awarded to its faculty. In 2000, the most recent year for which that data has been collected, the UW ranked second. Total grant and contract activity for 2001 exceeded $700 million. More than 80 percent of the uni- versity’s grant and contract funds come from federal agencies. Research contributes directly to the educational goals of graduate and professional students, as well as to those of undergraduates. Instruction and research at Washington are supported by a library sys- tem that is one of the most extensive in the nation, consisting of five major units and 18 branches, as well as libraries at UW Tacoma and UW Bothell, together housing more than five million volumes. In addition to offering instruction in more than 100 academic disciplines, the university offers a spectrum of continuing education courses that advance technical and pro- fessional skills and provide opportunities for personal growth and enrich- ment. Washington has 17 major schools and colleges: Architecture and Urban Planning, Arts and Sciences, Business Administration, Dentistry, Education, Engineering, Forest Resources, The Graduate School, The Information School, Law, Medicine, Nursing, Ocean and Fishery Sciences, Pharmacy, Public Affairs, Public Health and Community Medicine, and Social Work. The magnificent architecture of the Washington campus is replete About 90 percent of the University’s undergraduate students are state with fountains, flowers and greenery. residents, although instructional programs draw students from every region of the country and overseas. school graduating classes.

Beyond its academic and service missions, the UW has a strong eco- nomic impact on Washington and the Pacific Northwest. With about 20,000 employees, Washington is the second- largest employer in King County. Washington operates the University of Washington Medical Center and Harborview Medical Center, which annually provide more than 200,000 days of patient care and record more than 300,000 visits to their outpa- tient clinics. Washington also plays a critical role in attracting new busi- ness to the region. It provides these, and established businesses, with a steady stream of well-educated graduates and with highly skilled faculty members who assist business and industry in a variety of ways. The University of Washington in Seattle is located on 703 acres in the city’s northeast residential area, a beautiful setting on the shore of Lake Washington and Portage Bay. The majestic Cascade Mountains can be seen to the east and the Olympics loom to the west, while the western view includes downtown Seattle and Lake Union.

usky Athletics is about young men and women competing on a national level athletically while succeeding academically at the University of Washington. This fall, 650 student athletes will don the purple and gold and compete for the Huskies on 21 Hteams. The cost to recruit and retain world class student-athletes is high. In 2001-2002, Husky supporters invested $5 million in student-athlete scholarships. With the recent 16 percent increase in tuition, that figure will increase by $400,000 this year.

“Being at Washington has been a life-changing experience for me. My athletic scholarship has provided me the opportunity to explore new educational boundaries, and I will leave here a better person as a result. I will forever be in debt to Husky fans, who support the scholarship program.” — Anthony Kelley
