Think of Omaha as center court: a dynamic and unique destination in the cen- ter 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 Missouri River, a city founded in 1854 by land speculators convinced they were at the heart of something new. Soon after, the transcontinental 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 A view of the Omaha skyline at night.

A member of the College World Series of Omaha, Inc., Executive Committee, Rasmussen continues to play a vital role in Creighton and the city of Omaha remaining as host of the College World Series. He was one of six individuals on the CWS Oversight Committee that helped decide the loca- tion for the new downtown TD Ameritrade Park Omaha, which will help keep the CWS in town for another 25 years. With Creighton serving as host, the CWS has established new attendance records in six of the past nine years. Rasmussen was one of four regional winners from the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA) to take home a 2004 GeneralSports TURF Systems AD of the Year Award, and in 2010 was again honored with an Under Armour AD of the Year award by the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics. In terms of academics, Creighton’s reputation as one of the nation’s top academic institutions is reflected in the success the Bluejay student-ath- letes have had in the classroom during Rasmussen’s service as athletics director. Creighton’s baseball, men’s basketball, women’s basketball, volley- ball, men’s and women’s cross country, women’s soccer and men’s and women’s tennis teams all have received national awards for their academic success. Bluejay student-athletes consistently own GPAs of 3.25 or above. Creighton’s primary annual athletics fundraising events are the Bluejay Bash and the Bluejay Jamboree. Under Rasmussen’s leadership, each of these events continues to raise record-breaking funds for Creighton athletics. Most notably, the 2010 Jamboree generated more than $398,000 through its gourmet dinner, raffle and auction. Rasmussen accepted the associate athletics director position in 1992 after a 12-year run as the win- ningest coach in Creighton women’s basketball history (196-147), culminating in the program’s historic 1991-92 season. The 1992 Western Athletic Conference Coach of the Year, Rasmussen led the 1991-92 Bluejay women to a program-record 28 wins (28-4), the WAC regular-season and tournament championships and a first-round NCAA Tournament victory in the program’s first-ever trip to the “Big Dance.” With that 28-4 record in 1991-92, Rasmussen completed his college coaching career with a 196-147 record, good for a .571 winning percentage. After serving as associate athletics director for two years, 1992-94, Rasmussen was named athlet- ics director on Aug. 1, 1994. A native of Webster City, Iowa, Rasmussen and his wife, Jill, have five children: Megan (26), David (24), John (20), Katy (16) and Grace (13).
