2004 UC DAVIS TRACK & FIELD 1 DEANNE VOCHATZER Head Women’s Coach • 13th Year Few coaches in any sport achieve the ultimate accolade that befell UC Davis women’s track and field coach Deanne Vochatzer in 1996. Long one of the outstanding leaders in track and field in the United States, Vochatzer’s years of hard work culminated in her being named the head coach of the 1996 U.S. Team at the Centennial Olympic Games in Atlanta. And the person least impressed with the honor was the same person who received it. Then in the fall of 2002, the track and field community honored Vochatzer again, this time in the form of her induction to the U.S. Track Coaches Assocation Hall of Fame. Since the ’96 Games, UC Davis has been the beneficiary of her talent, wisdom and enthusiasm. In addition to numerous All-Americans and all-conference performers who have achieved success with her guidance, three Aggie track standouts – middle distance runner Jamila Demby, hurdler Kameelah Elarms and sprinter Tanisha Silas – were named as finalists for the prestigious NCAA Woman of the Year award. Demby won that award in 1999 while Silas captured the honor in 2002. Elarms advanced to the top 10 in 2001. (See page 36 for thumbnail profiles of each honoree.) Last season, the Aggies won their fifth straight California Collegiate Athletic Associa- tion championship –␣ the program’s 11th straight league title including those won in the now-defunct Northern California Athletic Conference. Vochatzer was selected as CCAA Coach of the Year for the fifth time. In 2002, she earned USTCA West Region Indoor Coach of the Year for the third consecutive season. Vochatzer was also named West Region Outdoor Coach of the Year in 2001. In 1999, she won Region Coach of the Year honors in both indoor and outdoor, and culminated the feat by garnering NCAA Division II National Women’s Coach of the Year honors, having guided UC Davis to a seventh-place finish indoors and a sixth-place showing outdoors. Vochatzer’s career resumé includes successful forays into coaching, adminis- tration and owning her own business. She graduated in 1971 from Chico State with a bachelor’s degree in physical education. She then served her alma mater from 1972-75 as women’s track and cross country coach, where her teams in each sport won the conference championship each season. In 1976, Vochatzer moved to Florida. She was owner/manager of One-Der- Wear, Inc., her own apparel company, and was women’s head cross country and track coach at the University of Florida from 1977-79. She completed work on her master’s degree while in Gainesville. The West Coast beckoned anew for her in 1980 as she took the reins of athletic director at Presentation High School in San Jose, Calif., a position she held through 1987. She also coached track and cross country at Presentation. Her first UC Davis experience came from 1987-89, when she taught and was women’s coach in 1988 and assistant to both the men’s and women’s programs in 1989-90. Vochatzer then moved to Cal Poly as head women’s coach for both track and cross country from 1989-90, before her return to the Davis campus in 1990-91 as head women’s track coach. While at Cal Poly, Vochatzer’s squads were NCAA cross country champions in 1990 and 1991, and track champions in 1991. Her national and international coaching experience goes back to 1979 when she was an aide to that year’s Sports Festival team, a role she would reprise in 1981. From 1982-87, Vochatzer was assistant coordinator for women athletes with the U.S. Olympic Festival. She served as coordinator from 1987 to 1994. In 1992, Vochatzer was alternate head Olympic coach for women and was head coach for two World University Games prior to receiving the prestigious honor of leading the U.S. women track and field athletes into the Olympic Stadium in Atlanta. Vochatzer is regularly in demand as both a clinician and speaker on her sport and has also had media exposure as an expert commentator for ESPN. She is a consultant for Nike, the National High School Coaches Assoication and the U.S. Justice Department on Alcohol & Drug Education for Athletics. COACHING STAFF Vochatzer was one of the lead presenters in Sacramento’s successful bid to host the 2000 Olympic Trials, for which she served as Director of Competition. She earned USATF’s prestigious Joe Robichaux Award in 2001 for her contributions as an organizer.

2 2004 UC DAVIS TRACK & FIELD JON VOCHATZER Head Men’s Coach • 23rd Year As is often the case in athletics, the UC Davis men’s track and field program carries the stamp of its head coach - energetic, enthusiastic and competitive. And, in 1998, Jon Vochatzer’s talent brought him the respect of his peers nationally when he was named to the United States coaching staff for the 1999 IAAF World Outdoor Champi- onships in Seville, Spain. The assignment is one of the highlights of a 31-year career in coaching track and field at various levels, a span which includes directing the Aggies to 14 conference championships during his time at UC Davis. In 2003, Vochatzer earned California Collegiate Athletic Association Coach of the Year honors for the fourth time in five years. He has also earned USTCA West Region Coach of the Year honors for indoor track four times and outdoor track twice during the past four seasons. Vochatzer has been named Men’s Coach of the Year four times (1984, 1989, 1993, 1994) in the Northern California Collegiate Athletic Association. He has also earned NCAA West Region Coach of the Year honors four times (1984, 1993, 1996, 1997). In all, Vochatzter has coached 80 NCAA All-Americans, including nine national champions in his career. A graduate of Stagg HS in Stockton, Calif., Vochatzer earned both his bachelor’s and master’s degrees in physical education from Cal State Hayward. He played football and ran track at San Joaquin Delta College from 1966-68, then played both sports at Hayward from 1968 to 1970. Vochatzer taught and coached at two Bay Area high schools, James Logan in Union City (1970-72) and American HS in Fremont (1972-74) before accepting an overseas assignment at Bitburg American High School in Germany, where he was head coach for both track and football from 1974-78. Vochatzer returned stateside in 1978, where he was head football and assistant track coach at Foothill HS in Pleasanton for two years. He was named head track and assistant football coach at UC Davis in 1979, a position he held until 1985 when he returned to Germany for a two-year stint at Nurnberg American High School, directing both the football and track programs. He returned to Davis in 1987 and since then has overseen a decade of track excellence. He played a pivotal role in the Atlanta Olympics effort as a member of the Olympic Development Committee for the U.S. sprint team. In 1995, he was an assistant coach at the Olympic Festival and was an assistant for the World University Games in 1997. As an instructor at UC Davis, Vochatzer has developed an array of physical education programs for mentally and physically challenged athletes. Since 1990, he has served as track and field consultant for the California Special Olympics. Administratively, Vochatzer has served UC Davis since 1991 as a member of the Executive Council, Academic Federation and the Com- mittee on Committees. He was also on the Public Affairs subcommit- tee from 1994-96. Jon and his wife, Deanne, the women’s track coach at UC Davis, reside in Davis. Vochatzer served as Competition Manager for the COACHING STAFF 2000 Olympic Track & Field Trials in Sacramento.

2004 UC DAVIS TRACK & FIELD 5 TRANSITION TO DIVISION I

On March 11, 2003, UC Davis made a historic move in its storied intercollegiate athletics history when it announced that it would reclassify from NCAA Division II to NCAA Division I status and join the Big West Conference. The announcement came after much disussion by campus administrators, faculty, staff and students, as well as alumni and the local community. Additionally, UC Davis undergraduate students passed the Campus Expansion Initiative, which will help fund the Aggies’ growing athletics grant-in-aid program. UC Davis began a four-year transition to Division I last fall, will start some competition in the Big West in 2004-05 and is scheduled for full Division I certification beginning in 2007-08. UC Davis will compete in the Big West Conference in baseball, men’s and women’s basketball, men’s and women’s cross country, men’s golf, men’s and women’s soccer, softball, men’s and women’s swimming & diving, men’s and women’s tennis, men’s and women’s track & field and women’s volleyball. Women’s rowing will continue to compete as an independent, men’s and women’s water polo will remain in the Western Water Polo Association and women’s lacrosse will continue play in the Mountain Pacific Lacrosse League. Football joined the newly formed Great West Football Conference. Women’s gymnastics and men’s wrestling – already classified as Division I programs – will continue their participation in the Mountain Pacific Sports Federation and Pacific-10 Confer- Chancellor Larry Vanderhoef ence, respectively.

Below are excerpts from the official campus release announcing the historic move to Division I:
