Navy women's tennis head coach Keith Puryear recentlysat down with NavySports.com to discuss the upcomingseason. It will be just the second varsity season for theNavy women’s tennis program after posting a 13-4 recorda year ago and reaching the Patriot League Tournamentsemifinals in its first year of varsity competition.

NNaavvyySSppoorrttss..ccoomm:: What are your thoughts from the fallseason? How well did the freshmen acclimate themselvesto the collegiate game? What surprised you the mostabout the fall?PPuurryyeeaarr:: I thought it was a good fall. It was by far betterthan what we experienced in our first season a year ago.I think our players really showed what they had learnedafter playing a year of Division I tennis. Amanda Griffinhad a great fall. She started off a little rusty not havingplayed for two years, but really got comfortable and hada very good fall, especially in doubles. Stefanie Ton hada good fall as well. We had a couple of players make thefinals in our invitational and won the doubles in A Flight.The incoming players, especially Darien Sears, had solidfall seasons. She improved leaps and bounds. I was veryimpressed with her and Erin Snook. Overall as a team,there are still some areas we need to work on and ad-dress to meet our potential, but we are making progress.

NNaavvyySSppoorrttss..ccoomm:: When you say there are areas to workon, is a lot of that because of youth? You have severalstrong returnees, but are still a really young team with alot of freshmen and sophomores.PPuurryyeeaarr:: A lot of that tends to work itself out with experi-ence. We are still getting a grasp of what it will take to besuccessful and play to our ultimate potential at the levelwe aspire to be. We have a little tougher schedule thisyear compared to last year. Last year was reasonable andwhat we needed for how young we were. This year, weupped the ante. We have DePaul coming in who is typi-cally a top 25 program, Syracuse is usually right outside

the national rankings, Maryland has a new coach so theyare excited about its program, in addition to all our PatriotLeague matches. It is going to be a lot more challengingand it's important to come out and hit the ground running.

NNaavvyySSppoorrttss..ccoomm:: How much does it help having AmandaGriffin and Brittney Boucher (the two seniors on the court)pull the young players through?PPuurryyeeaarr:: It helps immensely. Not taking anything fromBrittney, she is our captain, but Amanda has had threeyears of D-I experience and during her first year at FresnoState, they went to NCAAs and were nationally ranked.That type of experience is invaluable. With her, she leadsby example. She is one of the hardest workers on theteam and every day comes ready to play. Brittney hasdone yeoman work being the only senior and with no sec-ond class to support her this year. There is a big void inour classes and she has done a great job leading theteam. We are looking forward to more of the same as theseason goes on.

NNaavvyySSppoorrttss..ccoomm:: You eased into things some last year.This year, you upgraded the schedule with significantlymore matches. What are you expecting from the springand what kid of improvement do you expect to see?PPuurryyeeaarr:: Ultimately, I think what will happen this year isthat we will have points where we might struggle some,particularly early on. It is going to depend on how the play-ers respond to challenges and what we are really lookingfor is for them to positively respond to those challenges.If they can do that during the year, we will be clicking onall cylinders. That is our goal - to improve from the thefirst practice to the last practice and the first match tothelast match. The schedule is built in a way to do that. Wewill be challenged right out of the gate and will be inter-esting to see how we respond to those challenges earlyon and how we adjust.

NNaavvyy WWoommeenn’’ss TTeennnniiss EExxcciitteedd FFoorr SSeeccoonndd SSeeaassoonn ooff VVaarrssiittyy CCoommppeettiittiioonn WWhhaatt PPuurryyeeaarr SSaayyssHHaalleeyy AAddaammss:: Haley had a tough fall with injuries suffered dur-ing plebe summer, so she missed a large part of the fall sea-son. She fell behind some, but we feel good about herprogress. She is very motivated and wants to learn about thegame. She's going to have a great career.

BBrriittttnneeyy BBoouucchheerr:: Our fearless leader and best athlete on theteam. She has a huge heart and we are looking forward to herhelping solidify our starting lineup in both singles and doubles.

DDyyee DDaass:: Dye had a great freshman season. She really im-proved. We are looking to her to continue the progress shemade last year. She is going to be really critical to our suc-cess this year.

EEmmaannii DDeeccqquuiirr:: Emani learned a lot playing No. 1 singles, andwe were really impressed and pleased by the way she took onthat challenge. Will probably play top three in the line-up,which is still a huge challenge. You can really see her progressfrom last fall.

AAmmaannddaa GGrriiffffiinn:: Finally! She has paid her dues. She had tosit out because of NCAA transfer rules last year. This past fall,she really made up for lost time. She has a great work ethicand has shown great intensity in both practice and matches.She really sets tone for rest of team.

NNaattaalliiee HHoouullee:: Natalie struggled this fall with injuries. Lastyear, she was one of our most improved players. We are hop-ing she gets healthy and if she does, we expect her to be anintegral part of our success.

CCaassssii KKoovvaacc:: She is probably one of our most talented play-ers. She has all the shots and is at the stage where StefanieTon was last year. She needs to learn how to put it all togetherand if she does that, she will be very dangerous.

KKaattiiee LLaaddeerreerr:: Katie has been a pleasant surprise after com-ing from Liberty as a transfer. We really didn't know what to ex-pect from her. She took off a bit of time in the fall, came in abit rusty but improved immensely. She has a shot to make ourstarting lineup.

CCaaiittlliinn OOllsseenn:: Caitlin is a tremendous physical talent. She hasgreat power in her serve and groundstrokes. She needs tolearn how to put it all together and how to structure points andunderstand strategy. If she does that, she is going to be a force.

DDaarriieenn SSeeaarrss:: Up to this point from the start of the season,Darien is our most improved player. She is one of the fastestplayers I have ever coached. She is a very patient player withstrong groundstrokes. She has been a very pleasant surprisethis year.

EErriinn SSnnooookk:: Erin is a very powerful player and a tremendousphysical talent. She is very highly trained and constantly look-ing to improve. We are looking at her to be an integral part inthe starting lineup.

SStteeffaanniiee TToonn:: Stefanie was our most improved player last yearand has picked up where she left off. We are very pleasedwith everything she has done, and she continues to try to im-prove on her game.

JJuulliiaa ZZooookk:: Julia is a walk-on, who came in and has just triedto learn everything she possibly could during the fall. I thinkshe will have a chance to play this spring.

Keith Puryear is entering his third season as the headcoach of the Navy women’s tennis team, taking a pro-gram that was a club team just two years ago to the Pa-triot League Tournament semifinals and a 13-4 overallrecord in the program’s first varsity season in 2009-10.Puryear has taken the Navy women’s tennis programfrom a club power into a force in the Patriot League injust two short years.

In 2009-10, with a line-up that featured four freshmenquite regularly, the Midshipmen posted a 13-4 overallrecord, a 2-1 Patriot League mark and a trip to the PatriotLeague Tournament semifinals.

In the offseason, his second recruiting class wasranked as the 25th-best mid-major recruiting class in thecountry by the tennis web site, TennisRecruiting.net(.)Puryear's second-full recruiting class will only help astrong returning nucleus from last year.

Prior to arriving in Annapolis, he won over 440 dualmatches while coaching both the men’s and women’steam at UMBC. His Retriever squads won 11 conferencetitles from 1998 to 2007 and he has won almost 60 per-cent of all his dual-meet competitions.

When it was announced in October 2008 that Navy

was going varsity in women’s tennis, Navy Director ofAthletics Chet Gladchuk had his man in mind.

“Coach Puryear brings to our midshipmen a wealthof successful experience and documented winningways,” said Naval Academy Director of Athletics ChetGladchuk. “Meeting him is to be immediately impressed.Everyone is very enthusiastic about Keith joining theacademy family. His philosophies resonate the funda-mental values and academic aspirations of our programsand his expect to win mindset will be just what we needto jumpstart our new varsity women's tennis program.”

“I would like to thank Chet Gladchuk for giving me theopportunity to start the women's tennis program at theNaval Academy,” said Puryear. “I know the rich history ofNavy athletics, so it is an honor to be given this oppor-tunity. I am looking forward to the challenges presentedby all of the schools in the Patriot League. My staff andI will work hard to develop a program that is successfuland is one that all can be proud of. In addition, I wouldlike to thank Deputy Athletic Director, Eric Ruden, HeadMen's Tennis Coach, John Officer, Professor ChristineCopper and Associate Athletic Director, Robb Dunn, forall their help in my transition to the Naval Academy.”

“This is a suitable facility for not only an excellent ten-nis team, but also a proper way to honor Vice AdmiralGeorge Dyer,” said Mr. Burnett. “He was well knownthroughout Annapolis for his charitable works, and thiswill only add to his legacy.”

The building includes coaches offices, a racquet string-ing room, locker rooms for both coaches and players,a lounge, a public address system and a viewing deckoverlooking the courts.

“We greatly appreciate the generosity of the Burnettsto the Navy tennis program,” said then-Director ofAthletics, Jack Lengyel. “The Dyer Tennis Clubhousewill only help to enhance and strengthen an alreadyhighly successful program.”

“We are very grateful to the Dyer family for their contri-bution to the Navy tennis program,” said Navy headcoach John Officer. “The Dyer Tennis Clubhouse is

From the first athletic competition played on the grid-iron in 1879 to Navy's recent triumphs, several events,people, rivalries and personalities have shaped theentire Naval Academy athletic program. Below is alook at just some of the history and traditions thatmake Navy one of the most storied programs in all ofcollegiate athletics.

ANCHORS AWEIGH"Anchors Aweigh" was written by Lt. CharlesZimmermann, Musical Director of the Naval Academy in1906, with the lyrics provided by Alfred H. Miles of theClass of 1906, as a fight song for the 1907 graduatingclass instead of the usual class march Zimmermannhad composed for previous classes. The song made itsdebut at the 1906 Army-Navy game, and when theMidshipmen won the game, the song became traditionalat this game. It gained national exposure in the 1920sand 1930s when it was heard on the radio and was in anumber of popular movies. In 1997 a one-hour documen-tary on the history of Navy football, titled "AnchorsAweigh for Honor and Glory", was produced by NFLFilms. The film was deemed a success by both critics andfans alike. Here are the words:

Stand Navy down the field,Sails set to the sky,

We'll never change our course,So Army you steer shy.Roll up the score, Navy,Anchors Aweigh,

Sail Navy down the field,And sink the Army,Sink the Army Grey

BILL THE GOATThe first recorded use of a goat mascot for Navy athleticteams was in 1893 when an animal named El Cid (TheChief) was turned over to the Brigade by young officers ofthe USS New York. El Cid helped Navy to a 6-4 triumphover Army that year. Two cats, a dog, and a carrier pigeonhave also enjoyed brief reigns as the Navy mascot, butgoats have served without interruption since 1904. BillXXXII and XXXIII and XXXIV are the current mascots. Theyare taken care of by 15 goathandlers made up of five mid-shipmen from the first, second and third classes. Thegoathandlers undergo rigorous training prior to handlingBill on the field.

ENTERPRISE BELLFrom the bridge of the famed World War II aircraftcarrier, it has been a part of the Naval Academy tradi-tion since 1950. The late Admiral Harry W. Hill, thenSuperintendent, was instrumental in bringing the "E" Bell to Annapolis. Itrings when the Academy observes Morning Colorsand also during special ceremonies when Navy scores a major-ity of victories over Army in any one of the threesports seasons. The bell also rings duringCommissioning Week for those teams that beat Armyand have not participated in a previous bell-ringingduring the academic year. The bell is stationed in frontof Bancroft Hall.

MIDSHIPMANThe word midshipman first appeared in English in the17th century in the form of the word midshipman todesignate those men who were stationed "amidships,"i.e. in the waist or middle portion of the vessel, while onduty. By 1687, however, the second 's' had beendropped to give the current form of the word.Midshipmen were originally boys, sometimes as youngas seven or eight, who were apprenticed to sea captainsto learn the sailor's trade.

In the early days of the American Navy, midshipmentrained aboard ship until they were eventually commis-sioned as ensigns. With the founding of the NavalAcademy in 1845, it became possible, as it still is, for amidshipman to enter the Navy directly from civilian life.The name of students at the Naval Academy changedseveral times between 1870 and 1902, when Congressrestored the original title of Midshipman, and it hasremained unchanged since.

TECUMSEHThe familiar Native American figurehead facing BancroftHall and Tecumseh Court has been an Annapolis residentsince 1866. Originally, the figurehead of the USS Delawarewas meant to portray Tamanend, the great chief of theDelawares. It developed that Tamanend was a lover ofpeace and did not strike the fancy of the Brigade. Lookingfor another name, Midshipmen referred to the figureheadas Powhatan and King Philip before finally settling onTecumseh, the fierce Shawnee chieftain who lived from1768-1813. The original wooden statue was replaced aftersome 50 years in the open weather by a durable bronzereplica, presented by the Class of 1891. It is considered agood-luck "mascot" for the midshipmen, who in timespast would throw pennies at it and offer left-handedsalutes whenever they wanted a 'favor', such as a sportswin over West Point, or spiritual help for examinations.These days it receives a fresh coat of war paint and isoften decorated in various themes during football weeksand other special occasions such as CommissioningWeek.

Now in his 10th year as Director of Athletics,Chet Gladchuk has overseen a renaissance of theNaval Academy athletic program. His administrativeleadership has helped lead the program to one ofthe most successful periods in school history.

The 2009-10 season was a successful one forthe Midshipmen as Navy won 63 percent of its con-tests, defeated Army in the star competition for the13th consecutive year and won the overall seriesagainst Army for the 17th time in the last 18 years.Navy produced 14 All-Americans, 13 conferenceathletes of the year, seven conference coaches ofthe year and seven conference championships.

Navy also excelled in the classroom in 2009-10, ranking No. 2 in the country in graduation ratefor student-athletes (among Football BowlSubdivision schools) and all 24 of Navy’s NCAAsponsored varsity sports rank above the nationalaverage in the Academic Progress report, includingfive teams with perfect scores. Navy had eightAcademic All-Americans and five Patriot LeagueScholar Athletes of the Year, while 176 student-ath-letes were named to the Patriot League AcademicHonor Roll. Beth Reed (women’s soccer and bas-ketball) and Mark Van Orden (Track & Field) wonNCAA Postgraduate Scholarships, while Kayla Sax(women’s cross country and track & field) wonGates, Cambridge and Trident scholarships. Sevenof the top 15 Naval Academy graduates in the class of 2010 were involved withvarsity athletics, while 40 of the top 100 graduates were involved with eithervarsity or club sports.

One of the more successful programs this past season was the footballteam, which won a school-record tying 10 games against four losses, won theCommander-In-Chief’s Trophy for a school-record seventh-consecutive yearand participated in a bowl game for a record seventh-straight year. The Midsran their winning streak at South Bend to two with a 23-21 upset of the 19th-ranked Irish and dominated Missouri, 35-13, in the Texas Bowl.

Other teams who flourished in 2009-10 included the water polo team fin-ishing the season ranked 15th in the Collegiate Water Polo Association top 20,the rifle team finished eighth at the NCAA Championship, the wrestling teamplaced 46th at the NCAA Championship, the intercollegiate sailing teammatched its finish from a year ago at the ICSA Coed Dinghy Nationals with aseventh-place finish and placed sixth at the ICSA Team Race Nationals, themen’s tennis team advanced to the NCAA Championship for a fourth-straightyear, the women’s lacrosse team advanced to the NCAA Tournament for thefirst time in program history and finished the year ranked 19th in the countryand the lightweight crew team finished second at the IRA NationalChampionship.

Gladchuk’s efforts have been recognized on a national level as well, asthe Division IA Athletic Directors Association named him the 2005 Bobby DoddAthletic Director of the Year. The award is presented in recognition of an athleticdirector’s support and commitment toward the successful advancement of thedepartment, most specifically in the sport of football. Additionally, he was recog-nized by the Secretary of the Navy for his contributions and service to the Navyand the Naval Academy with the Superior Public Service Award to theDepartment of the Navy.

Gladchuk has been able to parlay Navy’s athletic success into an exclu-sive television deal with CBS College Sports Network that has increasedNavy’s television exposure both in the United States and internationally. CBSCollege Sports Network, the first 24-hour college sports network, televisesevery Navy home and select neutral site football games (excluding Notre Dameand Army which are televised nationally by CBS), as well as other Midshipmenmen's and women's athletic events, original programming and documentaries

centered on the storied Navy athletic program.The long-term, multi-media agreement includesinternet streaming, broadband and video-on-demand rights and high definition rights. A majorpart of the agreement was that all home footballgames would be played on Saturday for the con-venience of the Navy alumni. Navy sports areseen all over the world with the international distri-bution of Navy programming, especially to thetroops serving abroad. Navy’s contract with CBSCollege Sports Network runs through 2018.

Gladchuk has also added radio giants WBAL(1090 AM) in Baltimore and WFED (1500 AM,1050 AM, 820 AM) in Washington D.C./NorthernVirginia to Navy’s radio network.

WBAL Radio, which is also the home of theRavens, is Maryland's dominant and most powerfulradio station. Since 1925, generations ofMarylanders have turned to WBAL Radio for news,weather, thought-provoking discussions and sports.As Maryland's only 50,000-watt AM station,WBAL's signal travels substantially further than anyother station in the state.

WFED Radio, which is also the home of theWashington Nationals, is a 50,000-watt station thatwill air a minimum of 10 regular-season footballgames. WFED is your source for federal newscovering both the Federal Government and those

who do business with the government.Since being introduced as the Academy's 28th Director of Athletics on

Sept. 4, 2001, Gladchuk has pressed forward on numerous fronts with energyand vision. From the hiring of Paul Johnson and Ken Niumatalolo as head foot-ball coaches to the renovation of Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium,Gladchuk has made improvements in several key areas that will prove moresuccess on the athletic fields for years to come. Recent head coaching hiressuch as Bill Roberts in men’s swimming, John Morrison in women’s swimming,Paul Kostacopoulos in baseball, Keith Puryear in women’s tennis, the all-timewinningest women’s lacrosse coach in NCAA history, Cindy Timchal, and theall-time winningest soccer coach in NCAA history on any level, Dave Brandt,have advanced those programs into the national limelight.

During Gladchuk’s tenure at the Naval Academy, he has seen theMidshipmen win 64 conference titles, produce 128 All-Americans and 44Academic All-Americans.

Gladchuk has also worked tirelessly to bring back school spirit, working inconjunction with school officials to encourage midshipmen to attend events forall sports.

He has embraced the local community and alumni base, and is an often-requested speaker, visiting areas all over the country as he shares the vision ofthe Naval Academy and the Naval Academy Athletic Association.

Gladchuk’s biggest impact on the Naval Academy has been the $42 mil-lion renovation of Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium where under his lead-ership the stadium was completely refurbished over a four-year time frame. Theaddition of 6,500 permanent seats on the sidelines and in the end zones, 32luxury boxes, dropping the field eight feet and moving the sidelines closer, twovideo scoreboards, a memorial plaza, upgraded restroom and concessionareas, a perimeter walking path, new lighting, a new sound system, landscap-ing the grounds and storm water management highlight the list of renovations.Gladchuk has worked closely with the city, county, state and neighborhoodassociations to ensure proper communication and sensitivity to issues that ben-efit both the NAAA and community at large. The NAAA was awarded theGreen Star award by Annapolis Mayor Ellen Moyer for commitment to the envi-ronment during the ongoing renovation of Navy-Marine Corps MemorialStadium.

Gladchuk and the NAAA have also teamed up with the Naval Academy Foundationto raise over $75 million in private giving for facilities such as the Brigade Sports Complex(hockey and tennis), Max Bishop Stadium (baseball), varsity squash courts, various teamlocker rooms and a number of practice facilities.

Other highlights of Gladchuk’s tenure at the Naval Academy include the recentrenegotiation of the Army-Navy contract which resulted in over $46 million to the twoschools over the next eight years, scheduling Maryland, Notre Dame, Ohio State andArmy at M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore to promote Navy football in the community,negotiating the extension of the Navy-Notre Dame football game television contract withCBS through 2018 and negotiating bowl deals with the Houston, Emerald, Poinsettia,Meineke Car Care, EagleBank, Texas and Armed Forces Bowls.

Gladchuk is heavily involved with NCAA and Patriot League committees. Herecently was selected to serve on the NCAA Leadership Council, which is one of thehighest NCAA appointments an athletic director can realize. The council will help set theDivision I legislative agenda and advises the NCAA regarding major legislative issuesbeing considered. The primary responsibility of the council is to identify those issues onthe horizon that can impact Division I and intercollegiate athletics as a whole and willspend much of its time planning for the future of Division I and will help set the course forthe future. Gladchuk is also on the NACDA (National Association of Collegiate AthleticDirectors) Executive Committee and has served as the Chairman of the ExecutiveCommittee in the Patriot League and a member of the NCAA Olympic Sport LiaisonCommittee.

Gladchuk came to the Naval Academy from the University of Houston, where hehad been the Director of Athletics since July 18, 1997.

Before Houston, Gladchuk was the Director of Intercollegiate Athletics, Intramuralsand Recreation for seven years at his alma mater, Boston College. Under Gladchuk,Boston College emerged as one of the NCAA’s elite programs of the 1990s winningnumerous Big East and NCAA Championships. The school’s graduation rate for all stu-dent-athletes was over 90 percent and the Eagles won the College Football Association’sAcademic Achievement Award for the highest graduation rates among all Division Ischools in three of his last five years at Boston College. Gladchuk led the AlumniStadium expansion effort, which resulted in a $35 million improvement to the football sta-dium.

Prior to rejoining Boston College, Gladchuk served as AD at Tulane University from1987-90. During his tenure, he directed the reinstatement of the Green Wave basketballprogram to Division I status. In addition, he oversaw the construction of new facilities forthe athletics administration as well as baseball, track and field and tennis teams after a$25 million athletics campaign was successfully completed.

From 1985-87, he served as Associate AD at Syracuse University, heading opera-tions, NCAA compliance, financial aid and facility operations.

Gladchuk lettered in football at Boston College and graduated with honors in busi-ness management in 1973. He earned a master’s in sports administration from theUniversity of Massachusetts-Amherst in 1974, where he began his career in intercolle-giate athletics, including serving for seven years as Director of General PhysicalEducation, Assistant and Associate Athletic Director for the university. He also has servedas Director of Athletics and head football coach for the New Hampton (Prep) School inNew Hampshire prior to leaving for UMass.
