SANDY BARBOUR DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS As Director of Athlet- ics at the University of California, oversees an Athletic Department that ranks as one of the most successful in the coun- try with a mission that seeks to match its level of excellence with that attained by the University as a whole. Built upon four pillars – to teach, to serve, to compete and to excel – Cal Athletics strives to combine high athletic achievement with the aca- demic rigors of the No. 1 public university in the country, and to do so with integrity, passion, respect, teamwork, innovation, diversity and pro- fessionalism. The department is charged to not only be a campus and community leader, but also to be a place where individuals can grow to their utmost potential.

This year marks the fifth time in the last six years that Cal has posted a top-10 finish as well as the eighth time in the last nine years that the Golden Bears have been ranked in the Top 15. The Directors’ Cup measures the best over- all collegiate athletics programs in the coun- try and awards points based on final national standings in a maximum of 10 NCAA-spon- sored sports for both men and women. Rugby captured its 24th national title but be- cause it is not an NCAA-sponsored sport, the Bears did not receive points for that accomplishment. Cal rugby celebrates its 2008 National Championship.
