SIX national championships. EIGHT national players of the year. Over ONE HUNDRED All-America awards. THREE National Coaches of the Year. Since 1984, the Big West Conference has enjoyed unparalleled success in the sport of women’s volleyball and has positioned itself as one of the nation’s elite conferences. The Big West has sent a representative to the Final Four in 14 of its 26 years as a volleyball conference. In 2001, Long Beach State earned its eighth trip to the Final Four and reached the national championship match for the fourth time. The Big West dominated postseason play from 1998-2004 with the conference sending at least four schools to the NCAA Tournament. The Big West has only sent less than three teams to the NCAA Tournament three times. In addition, Big West schools have tallied an impressive 103-61 record (.628) against non-conference opponents all-time in the NCAA Tournament. In 1999, the Big West comprised half of the contingent at the Final Four in Honolulu, Hawai’i, with the presence of Long Beach State and Pacific. It marked the first time since 1994 that two teams from the same conference competed at the prestigious event. The alumni who have competed in the Big West reads like a Who’s Who of volleyball superstars. Long Beach State’s Misty May, a two-time NCAA Player of the Year, is widely considered the best collegiate volleyball player ever. She is now known as one of the world’s top beach players. Long Beach State’s Tara Cross and Danielle Scott, and Pacific’s Elaina Oden have contributed greatly to the success of the United States Olympic Team in indoor volleyball. The conference was represented in the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing, China, by former Big West athletes - Misty May (Long Beach State), Danielle Scott-Arruda (Long Beach State), Tayyiba Haneef-Park (Long Beach State), Jennifer Joines (Pacific) and Heather Bown (UC Santa Barbara). The quality of coaching in the Big West Conference is top notch. Two of the nation’s all-time winningest coaches are in the Big West – Long Beach State’s Brian Gimmillaro and UC Santa Barbara’s Kathy Gregory. Gimmillaro’s .806 career winning percentage ranks sixth all-time among active coaches, while Gregory is one of five coaches in NCAA history to surpass the 800-win career mark. is home to...since 1984 6 National Championships 8 National Players Of The Year 101 All-America Honorees Pacific's Jennifer Joines 3 National Coaches Of The Year Cal Poly • Cal State Fullerton • Cal State Northridge • Long Beach State 2 UC Davis • UC Irvine • UC Riverside • UC Santa Barbara • Pacific Big West Conference Big West All-Americans AVCA All-Americans since 1984 • 1st, 2nd or 3rd team in parentheses Suzanne Eagye, Hawaii 1986 (1st), '87 (1st) Sharon Kasser, Pacific 1991 (2nd) Sheri Sanders, Long Beach State 1989 (1st) Kylie Atherstone, Cal Poly 2007 (3rd) Krissy Fifer, Pacific 1989 (1st), '90 (2nd) Angelica Ljungquist, Hawaii 1993 (2nd), '94 (2nd), '95 (1st) Jan Saunders, Pacific 1984 (1st) Danielle Bauer, UC Santa Barbara 2002 (1st) Jennifer Fopma, Cal State Northridge 2003 (3rd) Kathie Luedeke, UC Santa Barbara 1985 (1st) Brita Schwerm, Long Beach State 1995 (1st) Melanie Beckenhauer, Pacific 1990 (1st), '91 (1st) Ana Elisa Franca, UC Santa Barbara 1993 (2nd) Julie Maginot, Pacific 1984 (1st), '85 (2nd) Cathey Scotlan, Pacific 1990 (1st) Judy Bellomo, UC Santa Barbara 1987 (1st) Malin Fransson, Hawaii 1991 (2nd) Misty May, Long Beach State 1997 (1st), '98 (1st) Danielle Scott, Long Beach State 1991 (1st), '92 (1st), '93 (1st) Dede Bodnar, Cal Poly 1985 (2nd) Roberta Gehlke, UC Santa Barbara 1997 (2nd), '98 (2nd), '99 (1st) Teri McGrath, Pacific 1986 (2nd), '87 (1st) Elsa Stegemann, Pacific 1998 (1st), '99 (1st) Cheri Boyer, Hawaii 1990 (1st), '91 (2nd) Kara Gormsen, Pacific 2000 (1st) Joy McKienzie, Long Beach State 1993 (2nd) Elisha Thomas, Long Beach State 2002 (3rd) Ellen Bugalski, Cal Poly 1985 (1st) Tayyiba Haneef, Long Beach State 2001 (1st) Jackie Mendez, San Diego State 1988 (2nd) Karrie Trieschman, Hawaii 1989 (1st), '90 (1st) Nichelle Burton, Long Beach State 1992 (2nd), '93 (1st), '94 (1st) Michelle Hansen, Cal Poly 1989 (2nd) Mary Miller, Pacific 1986 (2nd) Anna Vorwerk, Hawaii 1988 (2nd) Sacha Caldemeyer, Pacific 1996 (2nd) Sabrina Hernandez, Long Beach State 1991 (2nd), '92 (1st) Charlotte Mitchel, UC Santa Barbara 1986 (2nd) Cheryl Weaver, Long Beach State 1999 (1st), '00 (1st), '01 (1st) Martina Cincerova, Hawaii 1988 (2nd) Liz Hert, Pacific 1987 (1st) Kris Morton, San Diego State 1986 (1st) Antoinnette White, Long Beach State 1990 (2nd), '91 (1st) Katie Crawford, UC Santa Barbara 1997 (1st) Brittany Hochevar, Long Beach State 2002 (2nd) Robyn Ah Mow, Hawaii 1995 (1st) Kee Williams, Hawaii 1991 (1st) Alexis Crimes, Long Beach State 2004 (3rd) Lisa Ice, San Jose State 1986 (1st) Brooke Niles, UC Santa Barbara 2002 (3rd) Teee Williams-Sanders, Hawaii 1987 (1st), '88 (1st), '89 (1st) Tara Cross, Long Beach State 1986 (1st), ’87 (2nd), ’88 (1st), ’89 (1st) Angelica Jackson, San Diego State 1987 (2nd) Keri Nishimoto, Long Beach State 2001 (2nd) Kelly Wing, UC Irvine 2003 (3rd), '04 (2nd) Traci Dahl, Long Beach State 1994 (2nd) Diana Jessie, Hawaii 1987 (2nd) Elaina Oden, Pacific 1985 (1st), '86 (1st), '89 (2nd) Eileen Dempster, Pacific 1984 (1st) Charlotte Johansson, Pacific 1992 (2nd), '93 (2nd), '94 (1st) Maria Reyes, UC Santa Barbara 1990 (2nd) Benishe Dillard, Long Beach State 1997 (2nd), '98 (2nd) Jennifer Joines, Pacific 2000 (2nd), '01 (2nd), '02 (2nd), '03 (1st) Brooke Rundle, UC Santa Barbara 2000 (2nd) Best Of The Big West National Championships SchoolYear Long Beach State 1998 Long Beach State 1993 Long Beach State 1989 Hawaii1987 Pacific1986 Pacific1985 AVCA National Player of the Year Player (school) Misty May (LBSU) Danielle Scott (LBSU) Antoinette White (LBSU) Teee Williams (UH) Tara Cross (LBSU) Year 1997,98 1993 1991 1987, 89 1988, 89 Big West Alumni on USA Olympic Volleyball Teams Robyn Ah Mow (indoor) Hawaii Heather Bown (indoor) UC Santa Barbara Tara Cross (indoor) Long Beach State Tayyiba Haneef (indoor) Long Beach State Jennifer Joines (indoor) Pacific Misty May (beach) Long Beach State Jayne McHugh-Gibson (indoor) Pacific Elaina Oden (indoor) Pacific Teee Williams-Sanders (indoor) Hawaii Danielle Scott (indoor) Long Beach State Former Long Beach State star Misty May earned All-America honors in 1997 and 1998 while representing the Big West Conference.

There are 16 conference-sponsored sports in the Big West. Women’s sports are comprised of soccer, volleyball, cross country, basketball, golf, tennis, softball, track and field and water polo. Men’s sports include soccer, cross country, basketball, golf, tennis, baseball and track and field. Over four decades, the conference has striven for athletic and academic success, and has accomplished those goals to a large degree. The conference has undergone membership changes throughout its long history, the most recent ones significantly enhancing its stability. Following the 2004-05 academic year, Idaho and Utah State left the Big West, creating an eight-team league comprised of all California schools: Cal Poly, Cal State Fullerton, Cal State Northridge, Long Beach State, UC Irvine, UC Riverside, UC Santa Barbara and Pacific. A ninth school from the Golden State – UC Davis – became the newest member of the Big West on July 1, 2007 after completing a four-year reclassification process from Division II to Division I. The Big West owns the distinction of being the nation’s only conference with its entire membership located in one state. No matter what the membership makeup, the Big West always has stacked up well against the rest of the nation. In fact, the conference has claimed 17 team national championships in its history, including six in women’s volleyball, two in baseball, one in softball and one in men’s basketball. Men’s soccer was the newest sport added to the list when UC Santa Barbara claimed the national title in 2006. Individually, Big West athletes also have claimed several titles in such sports as swimming, track and field, and golf. In fact, Cal State Northridge junior Dashalle Andrews was the 26th Big West student-athlete to capture a crown when he won the long jump competition at the national meet in 2007. The conference’s overall success has been measured through the results of such competitions as the Learfield Sports Directors Cup. Presented by the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA), the Cup gauges the best overall collegiate athletics programs in NCAA Division I according to their finishes in NCAA postseason play. In 2009-10, UC Santa Barbara (No. 88) and UC Irvine (No. 90) finished in the top 100. The Big West had as many as five schools ranked in the top 100 in 2006-07 and 2007-08. Big West athletes also have succeeded on a worldwide stage in such international competitions as the Olympics, Pan-American Games and World Cup. A sampling of athletes who have competed at the Olympic level include Long Beach State’s Tara Cross-Battle, Tayyiba Haneef and Danielle Scott (women’s indoor volleyball), Pacific’s Jennifer Joines (women’s indoor volleyball), and Misty May (women’s beach volleyball); UC Santa Barbara’s Jason Lezak (men’s swimming), Cal State Fullerton’s Leon Wood and Bruce Bowen (men’s basketball) and Jenny Topping (softball); Pacific’s Elaina Oden (women’s volleyball) and Brad Schumacher (men’s swimming); UC Irvine’s Steve Scott (men’s track and field); and Cal Poly’s Stephanie Brown-Trafton and Sharon Day (women’s track and field). Brown-Trafton won the gold medal in the discus at the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. May won gold in beach volleyball for the second consecutive Olympics, and Joines helped her indoor volleyball team capture silver. Lezak swam the fastest anchor leg in history to help the United States win the 4x100 freestyle relay, helping teammate Michael Phelps eventually break the record for most gold medals in an Olympic Games. UC Santa Barbara men’s soccer alum Tony Lochhead competed for his native New Zealand at the 2010 World Cup in South Africa. Big West Success Found In All Sports The 2009-10 campaign will be remembered for solid individual and team successes across the Big West sports landscape. The premier sport during the Big West fall sports season, men’s soccer, produced two NCAA Tournament teams in UC Irvine and UC Santa Barbara. The Anteaters repeated as Big West Tournament champion to secure the conference’s automatic NCAA bid. UCI fell in the second round. Meanwhile, the Gauchos recorded their sixth regular season conference title since 2001, and utilized a strong résumé to earn an at-large bid to the NCAA postseason. UCSB responded with wins against Wofford and San Diego in the opening two rounds before losing in the Sweet 16. Both the Anteaters and Gauchos accomplished a rare feat, becoming only the second duo in Big West history to win at least 15 matches in a season. Women’s soccer featured UC Santa Barbara winning the Big West Tournament for the second straight season. That afforded the Gauchos a repeat trip to the NCAA Tournament, something the program had not accomplished since making three straight appearances from 1989-91. Cal Poly won its record sixth Big West regular season title after taking down UCSB on the final day of the league ledger, but suffered a heartbreaking penalty kick loss to the Gauchos in the tournament finals. In women’s volleyball, Long Beach State continued its domination of the Big West, winning its 10th conference championship and advancing to the NCAA Tournament for the 23rd straight season. UC Santa Barbara made its 27th overall appearance in the NCAA Tournament, and first since 2006. Both the 49ers and Gauchos dropped their first round matches. UCSB head coach Kathy Gregory reached a milestone in collecting the 600th win of her career. Six teams finished above .500 overall for the first time since 2004, including Cal State Fullerton, which tied a school record with 18 victories. Cross country was highlighted by the Cal Poly men collecting its seventh consecutive Big West title. The UC Santa Barbara women’s contingent returned to the winner’s circle for the first time since 2007. At the West Regional, top 10 team finishes were achieved by the Cal Poly and UC Santa Barbara men, as well as the UC Davis and UC Santa Barbara women. Three Big West individuals – UC Santa Barbara’s Scott Smith and Crystal Reed, and Cal Poly’s Joe Gatel – were selected to participate in the NCAA National Championships. Moving into the winter sports season, UC Santa Barbara became the sixth different school in six seasons to earn the men’s basketball automatic qualifier to the NCAA Tournament. Buoyed by a bevy of sophomores, including Player of the Year Orlando Johnson, UCSB captured the Big West Tournament crown for the first time since 2002 and earned a date with Ohio State in the NCAA first round. Pacific appeared in the CollegeInsider.com postseason tournament for the second consecutive year, and advanced all the way to the championship game. The Tigers played the entire tournament on the road. After successful forays to Loyola Marymount, Northern Colorado and Appalachian State, the magic ran out at Missouri State. Pacific’s 12 road wins tied for second nationally in 2009-10. UC Riverside restored its program to the league’s mountaintop in 2009-10, taking home the Big West Tournament crown for the third time in the last five seasons. The Highlanders overcame a 3-12 start to reach the NCAA Tournament, where they fell in the first round to Stanford. UC Davis earned an automatic bid to the Women’s NIT by virtue of winning the regular season championship. Cal Poly’s Kristina Santiago averaged 19.6 points per game to become the first Mustang in school history to collect Player of the Year honors.

However, the unofficial history of the conference pre-dates that point of time, extending back to 1967. Cal State LA, Fresno State, Long Beach State and San Diego State were members of the California Collegiate Athletic Association, long recognized as the nation’s premier college circuit. That conference was classified college division, and therein lay a major source of dissatisfaction. Since 1963, the four institutions had captured 16 national titles. The number swelled to 21 if the mythical football championships were included. With no more territory to conquer at the college division, a step up to university ranks had to be considered. At the time, San Jose State, UC Santa Barbara and Pacific were members of the West Coast Athletic Conference but were enduring a strained relationship due to the limit of conference sports sponsored. That, plus the fact that national football figures PAC and SJSU were already competing as independents, led the schools to pursue a more broad-based conference alignment. Therefore, officials of the seven colleges and universities assembled as a body in May of 1969, tied up loose ends and less than two months later the PCAA was born. Direction in the early days of the conference came from such men as Dr. Stephen Goodspeed, vice-chancellor at UC Santa Barbara, the first president and chairman of the founders committee. J. Kenneth Fagans provided guidance as the league’s first commissioner. Jesse T. Hill, one of the nation’s most successful directors of athletics at USC, followed Fagans as the conference’s first full-time commissioner. SJSU was already labeled a university division school in all sports when the PCAA emerged. San Diego State and Pacific were granted university division status in the summer of 1970 and the remaining conference members shed the college division moniker by 1972. The original PCAA lineup changed in the early years and by 1975, charter members UCSB and CSLA had dropped football and SDSU left the conference in football only. In 1974, Cal State Fullerton moved into the conference. By 1977, UC Irvine joined the Big West and UCSB was back in — both as non-football playing institutions — while Utah State became the first non-California member of the circuit, transforming the PCAA into a regional conference. UNLV (1981) and New Mexico State (1984) soon followed suit, bringing the league’s membership to 10 universities. In the fall of 1983, the PCAA became the first western conference to incorporate women’s athletic programs into the conference. Charter women’s members UC Irvine, UC Santa Barbara and UNLV competed in five championships. By the end of 1985, Pacific, Hawai’i, Cal State Fullerton, Long Beach State, San Diego State, Fresno State and San Jose State had joined the women’s conference. The PCAA upped its women’s sponsorship to eight championships. The PCAA began its 20th year of existence in 1988 by changing its name to the Big West Conference. With the inclusion of the states of Utah, Nevada, and New Mexico, the term “Big West” more accurately represented the conference. Since the name Big West has been used, conference teams have won nine NCAA team championships, establishing the Big West’s winning identity that is recognized nationally. Even though the Big West is again an all-California conference, the name Big West still embodies the identity, history, and tradition of excellence the conference has achieved, making it a well-known entity in collegiate athletics. •••2 0 1 0 Big West Volleyball•• • UC Davis swept the men’s and women’s swimming and diving titles in the Big West’s final season sponsoring the sport. The Aggie men picked up 958.6 points, the highest scoring total ever in a five-team Big West configuration. The Aggie women scored 864 points to take down four-time defending champion UC Santa Barbara. Three Big West studentathletes qualified for the NCAA Swimming and Diving Championships. On the women’s side, UCSB’s Anne Marie May competed in the 50 and 100 freestyle. Cal Poly’s Peter Kline and Scott Weltz of UC Davis represented the men at the national meet. A busy spring sports season presented more opportunities for individual and team accomplishments. Baseball sent multiple teams to the NCAA Championship once again as Cal State Fullerton and UC Irvine ranked among the best programs in the country. Beset by a myriad of injuries, Cal State Fullerton came within one out of reaching the College World Series in a heartbreaking setback to UCLA in Super Regional action. The Titans, which spawned two first-round draft picks in Christian Colon and Gary Brown, hosted and won a regional before taking the Bruins to the cusp of elimination. UCI reached the regional championship game after gaining some measure of vengeance against an LSU squad that prevented the Anteaters from advancing to the CWS in 2008. The Big West had 49 players selected in the 2010 MLB Draft, including Colon, who was the fourth overall pick. A new program emerged in the battle for softball supremacy in 2010. UC Davis captured its first Big West automatic bid to the NCAA Softball Championship in just its third season at the Division I level. The Aggies tied Cal State Northridge for the regular season title, but won the head-to-head series against the Matadors. CSUN actually churned out the most wins (31) of any Big West school, and even did so after sputtering to a 1-9 start. In contrast, women’s water polo kept the status quo as UC Irvine captured its second straight Big West Tournament title. The Anteaters began the tournament as the No. 3 seed and proceeded to win three straight matches, topping Big West regular season co-champions Pacific and Cal State Northridge in the process. That did not overshadow the impressive accomplishments by the Tiger and Matador programs, which set school records for wins with 23 and 28, respectively. Five Big West squads finished the season ranked in the nation’s top 25, including UCI at No. 9. Eight players received Association of Collegiate Water Polo Coaches (ACWPC) Honorable Mention All-American recognition. Golf featured some solid individual performances to highlight the 2010 spring campaign. UC Irvine senior John Chin was named a 2010 first-team All-American by Golfweek and the Golf Coaches Association of America. He then helped the United States defeat Europe, 13-11, in the Palmer Cup at Royal Portrush Golf Club in Northern Ireland. Chin was the ringleader of a UCI squad that won the Big West championship. Individually, Cal State Northridge’s Nick Delio and Austin Graham of UC Davis competed at the Southwest Regional. Delio achieved medalist honors and became the first Matador to advance to the NCAA Championships since the school moved to Division I in 1991. Delio finished in a tie for 103rd at the NCAA Championships. On the women’s side, UC Davis won its first Big West championship as four Aggies finished in the top five. UC Irvine became the first Big West school since former member Boise State in 1997 to sweep the men’s and women’s tennis tournament titles. The men raised the trophy for the first time since 2005. The Anteater women ended a six-year reign by Long Beach State, capturing the first tournament title in school history. Pacific’s Jenifer Widjaja, the Big West Women’s Player of the Year, represented the conference for the second straight year in the NCAA Singles Championships. Cal Poly’s talented senior duo of Brittany Blalock and Suzie Matzenauer carried the Big West flag at the NCAA Doubles Championships. Cal State Northridge swept the track and field championships as the men captured its fifth title and the women its seventh. A total of 17 Big West athletes and two relay teams advanced to the NCAA Championships. Nine athletes claimed All-American status at the conclusion of the championships. UC Santa Barbara’s Julian deRubira (steeplechase) and Ryan Martin (800), UC Irvine’s Charles Jock (800) and Cal State Northridge Reindell Cole (long jump) received the award on the men’s side, with Cole earning his second AllAmerican honor. Among the women honorees, UC Riverside’s Brenda Martinez (1500) and UC Santa Barbara’s Danielle Domenichelli (10000) joined Long Beach State’s Randi Hicks (javelin), and UC Santa Barbara’s Jane Doolittle (high jump) and Barbara Nwaba (multi events). In all, 12 Big West teams and 27 individual athletes participated in NCAA postseason competition this past season. 7 • ••2010 Big West Volle yba l l ••• 2010 Composite Schedule 8 Friday, August 27 1

In all, the UC Santa Barbara Gauchos have won four Big West Conference Championships. • In 2009, the Gauchos made their first NCAA Tournament appearance since 2006 and their 27th overall.

The win awarded LBSU its 10th Big West Championship and the league’s NCAA automatic qualifier, sending the 49ers to their 23rd consecutive postseason appearance. LBSU ended conference play with a 12-4 mark, while UC Irvine, UC Santa Barbara and UC Davis were knotted in second with an 11-5 mark. LBSU, UCSB In The Postseason: Both Long Beach State and UC Santa Barbara made a brief appearance in the NCAA Tournament. The 49ers were swept by host and No. 8 seed UCLA and the Gauchos allowed Saint Mary’s to rally from a two-gamesto-none deficit to take the match 3-2. The Gauchos were making their first NCAA Tournament appearance since 2006 and their 27th overall, while LBSU made its 23rd consecutive postseason appearance, 24th overall. Pestolesi, Saraceno Receive National Recognition: UC Irvine’s Keri Pestolesi and UC Santa Barbara’s Rebecca Saraceno both collected AVCA National Player of the Week honors during the 2009 season. Pestolesi earned the first award of the year after guiding UC Irvine to a perfect 3-0 record at the Courtyard Marriott/Fairfield Invitational, which included an upset victory over No. 6 California. During the match versus the Golden Bears, Pestolesi put away 17 kills and picked up 10 digs for her 40th career double-double. The outside hitter then totaled 23 kills, one shy of tying her career high, in a five-set win against Connecticut and also added 18 digs. She led all players with 21 digs against Nevada while recording 16 kills, hitting .308 (16-4-39). Saraceno received the nod for the week ending Sept. 27. She opened the week with a 14-kill, 18-dig performance in the Gauchos' 3-0 victory over Loyola Marymount. A few days later she began conference play with her second double-double of the week, tallying 12 kills and 11 digs in the sweep over UC Riverside. Saraceno saved her best performance for last, notching a career-high 29 kills to lift UC Santa Barbara to a 3-2 win over then-No. 21 UC Irvine. Her 29 kills tied for third all-time in school history under the rally-scoring format. Saraceno also tallied nine kills in the match-changing third set and then six more in the decisive fifth set as UCSB made one of its best comebacks in school history.

She concluded her career as a 49er with a total of 1,020 kills. Titans Successful in 2009: The Titans upped their record to 18-12 after downing UNLV, 3-2, which tied the school record for wins in a season. Cal State Fullerton also concluded conference play with an 8-8 mark, the second most conference wins in school history. Quartet Of 20-Win Seasons: A 3-1 win over UC Davis on Nov. 13 handed UC Santa Barbara its first 20-win season since 2005. UC Santa Barbara’s 10 conference victories are the most by the team since winning 12 league games in 2005, the last time UCSB captured the Big West crown. Also capturing their 20th win of the season were the UC Irvine Anteaters, who tallied a 22-8 mark for the 2009 season. This marks their third 20-win season since competing in the Big West. The previous two years where the 20-win plateau was reached were 2007 (21-11) and 2003 (24-10). UC Davis, who collected 16 total wins over the past two seasons combined, won its final contest of the 2009 season to improve to 20-10, securing ts first 20-win season since competing at the DI level in the Big West in 2007. The last time UCD showcased a 20win season was back in 1996 when the Aggies boasted a 21-6 mark and advanced to the NCAA DII Tournament. Long Beach became the fourth team to eclipse the 20-win mark and concluded the year with a 22-9 overall record. The 2009 season was the 22nd 20-win season for the 49ers and marked the 16th time four or more teams tallied 20-plus wins in the same year. A Win For The Ages: Both Cal State Fullerton and Long Beach State notched a ‘W’ against then-No. 7 UCLA at the Brea Embassy Suites Fullerton Classic, an impressive feat for both teams. The Titans opened the event with a 3-2 victory, marking their first win over a ranked team in program history and the first over UCLA in 14 matches dating back to 1980. With the momentum carrying over from the following night, the 49ers swept the Bruins for their first regular-season win over UCLA since 1996. Also registering its first win over a Top 10 program last season was UC Irvine, who kicked off 2009 with an upset win over No. 6 California at the Nevada Marriott Courtyard/Fairfield Invitational. UCSB’s Gregory Reaches 600-Win Milestone In Big West: Kathy Gregory, the only coach UC Santa Barbara has known, eclipsed the 600-win milestone last season and enters the 2010 season with a career record of 606-265. Gregory has coached the Gauchos squad since 1975, but UC Santa Barbara has only been a member of the Big West Conference since 1984.
