A staple in the New York region and an emerging program on the national stage, the Manhattanville College Athletic Department continues to bolster its reputation as a program on the rise in all areas: athletic achievement, academic success and overall participation. More than 300 Valiant student-athletes (nearly 20 percent of the student body) took part in intercollegiate athletics during the 2009-10 school year showcasing the continued and rapid growth of athletics at Manhattanville. Following the successful integration of the men’s and women’s indoor and outdoor track teams in 2008-09, the program has expanded to 21 intercollegiate teams – including seven new teams that have been established or re-established since 2007 alone. And teams at Manhattanville do not just compete, they win. Seven different programs earned conference regular-season or tournament championships in 2009-10 – a total bettered by only 13 Division III schools – and two Valiant teams (baseball and men’s golf) appeared in the NCAA Tournament. Fifteen of 21 Valiant teams earned berths in their respective conference championships last year, including confer- ence championships for the baseball, men’s golf and men’s hockey pro- grams. Three Manhattanville teams (men’s hockey, women’s hockey and women’s soccer) also received national rankings over the course of the year, the most in a single school year since 2004-05. On an individual level, many Valiant student-athletes were honored in 2009-10 as well. A program-record four Valiants – A.J. Mikkelsen and Mickey Lang (men’s hockey), Katie Little (women’s hockey) and Dan Fiorito (baseball) received All-American accolades, while an incredible six players were named conference Player of the Year. Manhattanville athletes also earned two conference Rookie of the Year awards and a school-record 49 All-Conference honors.

Levinthal also serves as head coach of Manhattanville’s nationally recognized men’s hockey program. Levinthal has led the Valiant athletic program to unprecedented heights in recent years, as Manhattanville has collected 48 conference championships – 25 regular-season championships and 23 tournament titles – in the last seven seasons alone. In that span, the program has also produced 25 conference Players of the Year, 15 All-American selections and one National Player of the Year. The Valiants put together another very strong overall season in 2009-10, as seven different programs achieved either a regular-season or conference tournament championship. Sixteen of the 21 Valiant programs reached their conference tournament during the year, including Freedom Tournament titles and NCAA Tournament appearances by the men’s golf and baseball teams. Multiple teams ascended to new heights in 2009-10, including the men’s golf team, which won its conference title by an amazing 39 strokes, and the women’s soccer team, which achieved the first NSCAA national ranking in program history thanks to a program-record 17 wins. On an individual level, Manhattanville produced a program-record four All-Americans, six conference Players of the Year and four conference Coaches of the Year. Manhattanville had one of the most successful seasons in program history in 2008-09, posting a cumulative department winning percentage of .548 (184- 151-6), while successfully integrating new men’s and women’s indoor and outdoor track programs that raised the number of varsity sports at Manhattanville to 21. Three teams – men’s basketball, men’s tennis and baseball – earned Freedom Conference regular-season championships, while the men’s tennis and women’s lacrosse teams set new program records for wins in a season. The Valiants also produced two All-Americans, four conference Players of the Year, three conference Coaches of the Year and three conference Rookies of the Year. In 2007-08, Levinthal guided the Athletics Department as it transitioned from the Skyline Conference to the Freedom Conference and also reintroduced volleyball and cross country programs to the school. The Valiants saw immediate success in its new conference as two teams clinched Freedom Conference regular-season championships and three programs won conference tournaments in advancing to the NCAA Tournament. The women’s hockey team advanced to the program’s third National Championship game, while the women’s soccer team reached the NCAA Tournament for the first time in program history. Levinthal also led the Valiants to a record-breaking year in 2006-07, as six teams won conference championships and a program-record five teams qualified for the NCAA Tournament. His men’s hockey team spent 13 consecutive weeks as the top-ranked team in the nation and earned its first-ever berth in the national semifinals, while goaltender Andrew Gallant became the first Manhattanville student-athlete to be named a National Player of the Year. Six coaches were named as conference Coach of the Year, while two Valiant student-athletes were also named ESPN The Magazine Academic All-Americans. And, for the first time ever, Valiant teams won more league championships than any other Skyline Conference team. Levinthal saw immediate athletic success during his first year at the helm, as all 14 of Manhattanville’s athletic programs participated in postseason play during the 2003-04 year. But in addition to athletic success, at the heart of every successful program lie sound resources for its lifeblood – its student-athletes. Therefore, Levinthal has made it a priority to provide the resources needed to create an environment in which Manhattanville student-athletes can achieve at the highest level academically, socially and athletically. In 2004, Levinthal received the honor of serving on the NCAA Men’s and Women’s Ice Hockey Rules Committee. The NCAA selects 13 members to serve on the committee and only four from Division III institutions. Levinthal began his term on Sept. 1, 2004 and left his four-year post on at the beginning of the 2008-09 school year. A 1995 graduate of Hobart College, Levinthal is committed to developing all aspects of the athletics program. In his tenure at Manhattanville, Levinthal’s agenda has included: Student-Athlete Development - Manhattanville continues to be on the cutting edge in the total development of its student-athletes. Valiant student- athletes have exhibited a strong presence and desire to serve the New York area. All varsity teams participate in outreach activities, positively impacting numerous area youth groups, hospitals, schools and agencies. Professionalism - Under Levinthal’s guidance, Manhattanville athletics received a much-needed face-lift. With a new website, logo, team colors and method of business, he has streamlined and energized the department. The result has been increased exposure to Manhattanville student-athletes, improved performance both on and off the field, and increased support from fans and alumni. Exposure - Manhattanville Athletics continues to maintain a strong presence on national and regional media outlets. Levinthal has helped increase the program’s media opportunities as well as displaying the values of the Valiants constantly in the public eye.

Built in 1930 on the site of Westchester’s Playland Amusement Park in nearby Rye, N.Y., and the former practice home of the NHL’s New York Rangers, the Ice Casino features a 205’x80’ ice sheet with both balcony and ice-level seating, along with spacious, state-of-the- art locker rooms, training facilities and a newly renovated player lounge. The facility underwent a major facelift before the 2007-08 season, getting new boards that include Valiant signage, glass, benches and a net covering the circumference of the rink. Manhattanville’s many championship banners also hang from the rink’s rafters to honor the great tradition of both the women’s and men’s programs. On game days, Playland’s balcony seating fills with rabid Manhattanville fans, who have made the Ice Casino one of the most difficult places to play in the nation in recent years. The Valiant women have boasted an .860 winning percentage in eight seasons at Playland, losing the fourth-fewest games among all Division III teams over the last eight years – including more than two home games in any season only once.

Valiants in the Community The mission of Manhattanville College – to educate ethically and socially respon- sible leaders for the global community – promotes extensive service to the local community. Manhattanville’s student-athletes, including members of the women’s hockey team, are among the school’s most active members in furthering that mis- sion through community service. As with every season, the Valiant women’s hockey team will perform over 1,000 hours of community service annually, working with a variety of different groups throughout the season and offseason. This year, Manhattanville has already worked at the 2010 Burke Rehabilitation Center Wheelchair Games (pictured at right) in White Plains, N.Y., and partnered with the men’s hockey team to take part in the annual Tunnels to Towers Run in New York City, and will continue to take part in service activities throughout the season. Manhattanville’s players and coaches are also active in the local youth hockey community as well, coaching and helping to run youth programs in Greenwich, Conn., Rye, N.Y., and New Rochelle, N.Y., among other areas. The Valiants also donate game tickets to youth hockey teams in the area as well as to local fire departments and police stations. 26 2010-11 Manhattanville Women’s Hockey Media Guide Strength & Conditioning/Sports Medicine Strength & Conditioning Focused on the overall development of the student-athlete, the Manhattanville Strength & Conditioning staff will maximize the athletic performance of Valiant student-athletes by using the most effective and efficient training techniques to compete injury free at the highest level of competition. The aim is to instill a sense of self-discipline, respect and responsibility to achieve the ultimate goal of a team championship. The strength and conditioning department is housed inside Healthworks, a large, state-of-the-art weight and cardiovascular training facility located on the bottom floor of the Athletic Department hub, Kennedy Gymnasium. The room includes several power development stations, glut ham benches, decline abdominal benches and physioballs and cardiovascular machines that are available for student-athlete use both in and out of season as well as during the summer. In 2007, Manhattanville College opened the new Richard A. Berman Student Center in the center of campus that includes a first-class workout area for the general student population; as a result, Healthworks is now the exclusive strength and conditioning home of Valiant student-athletes.

The athletic training staff has five main objectives: prevention of athletic injuries; recognition, evaluation and treatment of injuries that do occur; rehabilitation; health care administration; and professional development. The athletic training staff also has on-campus access to state-of-the-art training methods, including ultrasound capability, electrical muscle stimulation and whirlpool treatments.

A letter was like a piece of gold, something you wanted to keep for the rest of your life.” When Salas got back to Manhattanville, he wanted to help his fellow soldiers overseas and approached former College President Richard A. Berman with an idea. Together with Berman and administrator Anne Gold, they launched the My Soldier program on February 14, 2004. Participants in the My Soldier program, who are not limited to Manhattanville students, send letters and occasional care packages overseas to boost the quality of life for American troops. A non-politically affiliated program, My Solider has been wildly successful, with participants from all 50 states and over 400,000 people in total, reaching more than 175,000 U.S. troops.
