event.
TRIO OF COYOTES NAMED ALL-AMERICANS:
A
trio of ACI men’s soccer players were named honorable mention NAIA All-Americans following the
conclusion of the NAIA Men’s Soccer Championships in Daytona Beach, Fla. Forward Mitch
White, defender Scott Fuller,
and goalkeeper Jay Gentle earned the
honor from the NAIA-Soccer Coaches Association.
VOLLEYBALL (33-2): Lady
Yotes off to Missouri
for NAIA Championships
COMING
UP: at NAIA Volleyball National Championships, Columbia, Mo., Wednesday-Saturday
– vs. No. 25 Cedarville (Ohio), Wednesday, 1:30 p.m. (CST); vs. No. 17 Lee
(Tenn.), Wednesday, 6 p.m. (CST); vs.
No. 4 Cal
Baptist, Thursday, 8:15 p.m. (CST)
ABOUT THE NAIA CHAMPIONSHIPS: The event, held this year in Columbia, Mo. (on the
campus of Columbia
College), is the
27th-consecutive year that the NAIA has sponsored a national championship in
women’s volleyball. A total of 20 teams
are in the tournament – 13 teams who won their respective regional tournament,
five at-large teams (based on strength of conference schedule), one wild-card
team (based on overall record, regional performance), and a berth to the host
school. The teams are split into five
Pools of four teams (for round-robin competition), with the winner of each Pool
receiving a spot in the national quarterfinals (along with the second-place
team in Pool E – the most difficult Pool).
The second-place teams in Pools A-D and B-C will meet in a playoff to
determine the other two teams into the quarterfinal bracket. The remainder of the tournament is
single-elimination.
SEEDED SEVENTH, POOL D: Unlike in the past, the Lady Yotes
have been seeded into the tournament, earning the No. 7 seed by the NAIA Volleyball
Coaches Association. ACI was put into
Pool D – joined by No. 4 seeded Cal Baptist, and unseeded Lee (Tenn.) and Cedarville (Ohio).
ABOUT THE OPPONENTS: All three opponents that the Yotes
will face in Pool Play are former opponents in ACI’s
past – with the Coyotes holding an unblemished record against the trio. In Wednesday’s opener, the Yotes meet Cedarville of Cedarville, Ohio. The Yellowjackets
(45-7), ranked No. 25 in the final NAIA poll, have won three consecutive Region
IX-X championships, along with the last two NCCAA National Championships. The Cedarville attack is led by middle
blockers Sarah Zeltman (4.6 k/g, 1.1
b/g) and Julia Bradley (3.8 k/g, 1.1 b/g). ACI met the Yellowjackets
at the Best of the Best Tournament in September, defeating Cedarville in three
games. Wednesday’s afternoon tilt is
against Lee of Cleveland, Tenn. The Flames (31-7), ranked No. 17 in the final
NAIA poll, are the Region XIII champions for the third-straight year and are
led by All-Americans Bruna Langner
(3.8 k/g, 1.8 b/g) and Ligia
Zobolli (4.0 k/g, 3.2 d/g). ACI met Lee last season at the NAIA
Championships and defated the Flames in three
games. The Coyotes round out pool play
against Cal Baptist of Riverside, Calif.
– the tw-time defending NAIA champions. The Lancers (28-7), ranked No. 4 in the final
NAIA poll, finished third in the powerful Region II, thanks to the play of
returning NAIA Player of the Year, Verania Willis
(4.5 k/g, 2.0 d/g) and Shi Fei (3.7 k/g, 2.3
d/g). ACI has met CBU once before, defeating
the Lancers in five games during the Point Loma Tournament in 2001.
THE FOREIGN FACTOR: The Lady Yotes have something going
for them that none of the other nine seeded teams in the tournament have – a
roster completely made up of players from the United States. Each of the other seeded teams in the
tournament has at least one foreign player on their roster – with top-seeded
National American having eight foreign players on their squad and host Columbia having six
foreign players on their roster. Of the
20 teams in the tournament, 12 have foreign-born players on their rosters.
HISTORY AT NATIONALS: 2006 marks the third time the Lady
Yotes have advanced to the NAIA Championships – making other trips in 2000 and
2005. The 2000 tournament was held in Palm Beach, Fla., with
ACI going 1-3 in their Pool Play matches (defeating Broomfield (N.J.), but
losing to Point Loma Nazarene (Calif.), St.
Mary’s (Neb.), and Madonna (Mich.). Last year’s tournament was held in San Diego, Calif., with
the Yotes going 2-2 in the Pool Play matches (defeating Georgetown
(Ky.) and Lee (Tenn.),
while losing to Houston Baptist (Texas) and
Fresno Pacific (Calif.). ACI has an overall record of 3-5 at the NAIA
Championships.
STREAKS GALORE FOR THE YOTES: Impressive numbers dot the landscape
of the 2006 volleyball season for ACI, as the Lady Yotes have multiple streaks
still alive. ACI has won a school-record
20 matches in a row, have won a school-record 25-consecutive matches at home,
dating back to last season, and has won 45-consecutive matches against teams
not ranked in the national poll (or others’ receiving votes).
NATIONAL RANKING: The Yotes were ranked No. 8 in
the final NAIA volleyball poll of the regular-season, released last week
by the national office in Olathe,
Kan.. – equaling the highest ranking in program history. Six
others – No. 1 National American (S.D.), No. 5 Columbia (Mo.), No. 17 Lee
(Tenn.), No. 25 Cedarville (Ohio), Lindenwood (Mo.)
and Southern Oregon, are among the ACI opponents (or opponents to be) this
season in the Top-25 and others receiving votes.
PREVIOUS RANKINGS: The Coyotes have been ranked in the
Top-25 on 17 occasions in program history – the second (No. 24) and third (No.
19) polls of the 1997 season, the preseason (No. 15) and first poll (No. 19) of
the 2001 season, the final poll during the 2005 season (No. 24), the 2006
preseason poll (No. 16), and all 11 rankings this year.
MENDIOLA ADDS
TO HER WINS RECORD:
With the Lady Yotes victory over Cedarville (Ohio) on Sept. 23, ACI volleyball coach Liz Mendiola became the all-time winningest volleyball coach in program history. While at ACI, Mendiola has posted a 132-54
record (.710 win percentage) - six-straight Cascade Conference tournament
appearances, three NAIA Region I tournament appearances, the 2005 and 2006 CCC and
NAIA Region I tourney titles, the 2006 CCC regular-season title, along with a
trips to the 2005 and 2006 NAIA Championships.
HOME SWEET HOME: Under Mendiola, the Lady Yotes are 66-12
in the J.A. Albertson Activities
Center, an .846 winning percentage.
They are even better in CCC play, holding a 45-8 mark (.849 percent)
since the 2001 season.
BEST SEASON EVER: The 33-2 mark by the Lady Yotes has
shattered all season records. In recent
years, the 1997 and 2005 teams opened the season with 7-3 marks (best ten-game
mark), while the 2005 squad opened with a 12-3 (best 15-game mark), 16-4 (best
20-game mark), 20-5 (best 25-game mark), and 25-5 (best 30-game mark) start to
a season. ACI finished the year a
perfect 18-0 at home (second time the Yotes have gone unbeaten at home) and a
perfect 11-0 on the road this year (not including neutral court matches). The win total has eclipsed the former record
for wins in a season – as the 1981 team, led by ACI Hall of Famer
Lerna Thames and coached by Don Braunecker,
went 30-11.
CAREER RECORD BOOK: It has already happened, but it is
inevitable that the ACI record books will continue to be rewritten. Currently, five players are already among the
all-time top-ten. Katie Hogue (Sparks, Nev.
/ Reed HS) ranks No. 3 all-time with 391 blocks (five from second-place), No.
6 with 127 aces, and No. 7 with 981 kills (needing 19 kills to become the sixth
player to reach the 1,000 kill plateau).
Erin Cherrington (Granby, Colo. / Middle Park HS) holds
the all-time record with 5,091 assists, is third with 189 aces, is No. 4 in
games played (446), and is No. 5 with 1,083 digs. Also on the list are Tiffany Sower (Eagle, Idaho / Eagle HS), who is fifth
all-time with 141 aces, Anne Parker (Pocatello, Idaho / Century HS), who is fifth in blocks with 289
and tenth in kills with 696, and Kathryn
Ely (La Grande, Ore.
/ La Grande HS), who is No. 9 in kills with 784.
SINGLE SEASON RECORDS: Multiple Yotes have already jumped
into the single-season record book as well.
Libero Catherine Everist (Portland, Ore.
/ Chicago State U.) tops the list, having recorded the most digs (711) in a
season, eclipsing the mark of 703, set by Charity Gaston last season. She also is averaging 6.35 digs per game,
nearly a half-dig more than the school record, heading into the national
championships. Also on the list is Erin
Cherrington, who is on pace to break her own school record for assists per game
(13.89), while recording the third-most assists (1,500) in a
single-season. Joining them is Katie
Hogue who currently ranks No. 5 on the blocks (135) and No. 6 on the ace (57)
list, and Kristin Henning (Boise, Idaho / Boise HS), who is eighth
in blocks (118). Hogue, Henning, and
Anne Parker all are currently among the top-ten in a season in hitting
percentage.

volleyball team are staggering, as ACI has dominated awards in Northwest NAIA
volleyball – the following is the Lady Yote honors:
Erin Cherrington – seven-time CCC Setter of the Week,
seven-time NAIA Region I Setter of the Week, NAIA National Setter of the Week

COYOTES STREAK ENDS AT 5-0: Before the loss to Westminster on Saturday night, ACI recorded
their best start in five seasons, when Mark
Owen led his 2001-02 squad to a 5-0 start. This year’s team joins the 1998-99 and
2001-02 squads going 5-0. Only four
other squads posted better starts to a season, as the 1991-92 team went 6-0 to
start the season, with the 1958-59 and 1984-85 team – which Owen was a member
of as a player, began 7-0. The best
start by a Coyote team was the 1995-96 NAIA Division II national championship squad that began the year, 8-0.
EASTERN BRINGING I-84 CUP TO CALDWELL: ACI and Eastern Oregon have played every season since 1945
(the longest continuous rivalry for the Coyotes) – with the ‘Yotes holding a 100-55
in the series (ACI and Northwest Nazarene had played every season from 1946 to
2001, before a two-year hiatus). The Yotes
had won eight-consecutive games against EOU in the J.A.
Albertson Activities
Center, before last season’s 78-63 win
by the Mountaineers in Caldwell. With the emerging popularity of the men’s
game among the respective student bodies, an “I-84 Cup” will go to the winner
of each game – the trophy residing at the winning school until the next
meeting. “Albertson has become one of
our greatest rivals,” said EOU athletic director Rob Cashell.
“The I-84 Cup represents added incentive to prepare for the Yotes and earn
a victory. It also gives our fans and boosters an added
experience." The I-84 Cup had
resided in Caldwell
from Jan. 7, 2005 until Feb. 17, 2006 – and has been in La Grande since.
THE MOUNTIES THE RANKED TEAM THIS
TIME: Eastern (7-1)
comes into Friday’s game ranked No. 23 in the preseason NAIA Division II poll
and are off to their best start since 1981.
The Mountaineers ran off a pair of wins against both Montana-Western and
Montana Tech, topped Multnomah Bible and Walla Walla, then defeated Westminster, 85-73, at the Golden Rule Shoot-Out, before
losing a tough 84-81 decision to Willamette. EOU also defeated Northwest Nazarene, 68-61,
in an exhibition game last Friday night in Nampa.
The Mounties are led by brothers Paul Carollo
(13.6 ppg, 9.6 rpg)
and Mark Carollo (16.0 ppg,
4.3 rpg), along with sophomore Tanner McIntosh (14.1 ppg, 4.9 rpg). Eastern has dominated opponents on the glass,
recording nearly 11 more rebounds per game than their opponents, but turn the
ball over nearly 17 times per game.
BIG WIN OVER CARROLL: Two years ago, Carroll College
lost in the NAIA Division I semifinals and a year ago, they lost in the
national quarterfinals. Friday night,
they lost to the Coyotes, 89-77, in Salt
Lake City. Ike Stafford (Auburn, Wash.
/ Salt Lake CC)
scored a game-high 25 points in the win, including four-straight second
half three-pointers that helped ACI build a 22-point lead. The Saints used a 24-7 run to
close
within 74-69 with five minutes left, however, the Yotes hit 13-straight free
throws at one point late in the game to notch the victory. Craig
McGee (Boise, Idaho / Centennial HS) came
up huge in the second half, scoring 13 points and grabbing a season-high nine
rebounds, with Brandon Nielsen (Twin Falls, Idaho / Big Bend CC) coming
off the bench to score 13. Josh Owen (Caldwell, Idaho
/ Vallivue HS) recorded 12 points, seven assists,
and six steals in the victory.
MORE ON THE WIN: ACI shot 50-percent or better from
the field for the third time this season in the victory, and connected on 15
three-pointers. It was the fourth time
in five games that the Yotes had made ten-or-more three-pointers in a game this
season. The Coyotes also held a slim
31-30 lead on the glass, the first time this season that ACI had outrebounded their opponent.
STREAK ENDS VS. WESTMINSTER: Jordan Jacobs was one of four Westminster College
players in double-figures, as the Griffins handed ACI their first loss of 2006,
topping the Yotes, 77-59, in the title game of the Homestead Studio Suites
Thanksgiving Classic in Salt Lake City. The Coyotes held a brief 15-13 first half
lead, but Westminster
used a 15-3 push to build a 38-31 halftime edge, and ACI would not get closer
than five points the rest of the way. Danny
Reeder had 12 points and Nate Sanchez added 11 points and 11 rebounds in the
win, avenging a 83-80 loss to the Yotes in the Golden
Rule Shoot-Out. Brandon Nielsen led ACI
with 15 points and Brian Champ (Boise,
Idaho / Borah HS) chipped in
with ten in the loss.
WHAT HAPPENED?: Poor shooting plagued the Yotes on
Saturday night, as ACI shot a season-low 32-percent from the floor. Hampering that was a tough night from leading
scorer Ike Stafford, who connected on 1-of-9 shots from the floor – finishing 20-points
below his season average. Defensively,
the Coyotes struggled at times, allowing Westminster
to hold a 46-22 edge on the glass, while Coyotes recorded a season-low ten
steals.
HANGING ONTO THE BALL: After ACI set a school record by
committing 33 turnovers in a wild 129-120 win over Montana-Western, the Coyotes
have done an admirable job in ball-control.
In the five games since the opener, the Yotes have averaged just 11
turnovers a game, while opponents have been forced into 26 turnovers a game – a
plus-15 margin.
CONFERENCE SCHEDULE OPENS: Some intriguing match-ups dot the
landscape this weekend, as all ten Cascade Conference teams open up the 18-game
double round-robin schedule. Although
many point to the ACI-Eastern game as the “Game of the Week” – others are just
as interesting. Concordia will take
their 5-1 preseason mark to meet Southern Oregon and Oregon Tech, while
Northwest heads to Portland
to meet defending CCC champ, Warner Pacific – who is a perfect 5-0. CCC play will take a two-week hiatus, as
games will resume on Dec. 19-20, along with Dec. 29-30.
NATIONAL POLL: Three Cascade Conference teams were
ranked in the NAIA Division II preseason poll – No. 4 Oregon Tech, No. 13
Northwest, and No. 23 Eastern Oregon.
The Coyotes received 14 votes in the poll, showing up in the Others
Receiving Votes category. The first
regular-season poll will be released next Wednesday.
CONFERENCE NUMBERS: As a team, the Yotes lead the
Cascade Conference in three categories – steals per game (16.5), turnover
margin (+15.8), and three pointers made per game (12.0). Individually, Ike Stafford leads the loop in
three-pointers made (4.7) and is third in scoring average (21.3). Also in the Top-5 are Josh Owen, who leads
the league in steals per game (3.2), followed closely by Brian Champ (2.3) at
No. 2, and Donnel Garner (Scottsdale, Ariz. / Chaparral HS) (2.2) at No. 4.

I-84 CUP
BATTLE ON
FRIDAY: Friday night, the Lady Yotes open up the 2006-07 Cascade Conference
schedule with the first of two meetings against their I-84 Cup rival, Eastern
Oregon. The game will mark the first
time that the two women’s basketball teams will be playing for a traveling trophy
– similar to the I-84 Cup that the two institutions men’s teams have been vying
for over the past three years. ACI will
be looking to end a nine-game losing streak against the Mountaineers – a streak
that is at 11 when it includes only regular-season games.
ABOUT
THE MOUNTAINEERS: Eastern took home the title of the Lady Yote Classic
last weekend, winning both games against Willamette and Westminster.
The Mounties (4-1) are led by All-CCC guard Christie Weaver (15.8 ppg, 4.4 rpg)
and post Tiffanie Ulmer (11.0 ppg,
9.0 rpg) – two of 13 players on the squad who see
nine or more minutes of action per game.
EOU’s only loss this season was a 75-51
decision at Lewis-Clark
State, ranked No. 10 in
the NAIA Division I. It is the 26th
meeting between the schools, with ACI holding a 13-12 edge.
VANDER
ESCH RECORDS RARITY: Saturday night was a special evening for transfer Christon Vander Esch
(Grangeville, Idaho / Treasure Valley CC),
as the sophomore not only set the school record for steals in a game, but became
the first Yote to record a triple-double in program history. Vander Esch had a
season-high 21 points, grabbed 11 rebounds, and set the mark with 11 steals in
the win over Willamette. The steals recorded shattered the former mark
of eight, which was equaled on five different occasions – the last in
2005. It also broke the Cascade
Conference single-game steals mark, topping the former record of ten, set twice – the last
in 2002. She currently leads the CCC in
steals per game, and ranks fourth in the NAIA in the category – while leading
the league in offensive rebounds per game.
MORE ON
THE TRIPLE-DOUBLE: No ACI player had ever accomplished the feat, prior
to Saturday, as only 12 times a Coyote had recorded double-figure assists, with
only three of those times recording a
double-double. The closest a Lady Yote
had come to a triple-double was Jeannie Thompson against Northwest on Feb. 17,
2001 – when she scored eight points, had nine rebounds, nine assists, and ten
turnovers. In fact, in the last three
seasons, only two Cascade Conference players had recorded a triple-double.
YOTES SWAMP WILLAMETTE: The Yotes took the consolation game
of the Lady Yote Classic on Saturday night by forcing 41 Willamette
turnovers in a 70-54 win. ACI held the
Bearcats without a field goal over the final 15 minutes of the game, ending the
contest on a 14-2 run to notice the win.
ACI
EXTENDS RECORD VS. NORTHWEST CONFERENCE: Although ACI was a charter
member of the Northwest Conference and participated as a league member from
1926-1977, women’s athletics were not sanctioned league sports during that
time. In fact, the Lady Yotes have faced
seven of the nine members of the league, recording a combined record of 15-3
against NWC teams (George Fox, Lewis & Clark, Linfield,
Pacific Lutheran, Willamette, Whitworth, Whitman) since women’s hoop began in
1995, while they have not met Puget Sound or Pacific. On the flip side, the ACI men’s basketball
team has played 670 games against NWC competition, dating back to the 1932-33
season.
HILL
RECORDS DOUBLE-DOUBLE: In the victory, transfer Denise Hill (Eugene,
Ore. / Boise State U.) recorded
her first double-double of her Coyote career.
The junior scored 15 points and had a season-high 13 rebounds. Hill has scored in double-figures in five of
the Lady Yotes six games – joining Whitney Clark (Jerome, Idaho / Northwest Nazarene U.) in that category.
AMES HAS CAREER NIGHT: Guard Savannah Ames (Skagway, Alaska / Skagway HS) scored
a career-high 16 points in the Willamette
win. The sophomore, who scored a
season-best six points in a game last year, also recorded four rebounds and
three steals in the victory.
TOUGH LOSS TO WESTMINSTER: Elisa Leader canned five
three-pointers, part of her 22 point night, as Westminster
College completed a season sweep of Albertson College, topping the Coyotes, 69-53, on
Friday night. Leader hit a pair of early
treys, as the Griffins jumped out to an early 11-2 lead. However, ACI
would rally, with a Jori Grady (Roseburg, Ore.
/ Umpqua CC) triple tying the score at
13-13. The Coyotes would lead only once on the evening, as a Christon Vander Esch lay-up gave
the hosts a brief 36-34 lead early in the second half. However, Westminster would hold
ACI to just one field goal over a seven minute stretch, building a ten-point
cushion that they would not squander. Whitney Clark led the Lady Yotes with 17
points, with Grady adding 16 points. Denise Hill had seven points and led
all players with 11 rebounds.
AMONG
THE LEAGUE LEADERS: As a team, the Lady Yotes lead the CCC in steals per
game (19.8), turnover margin (+7.2), and turnovers forced per game (31.8). ACI ranks No. 2 in the NAIA in the steals per
game category and No. 5 in the NAIA in the turnover margin column.
SUCCESS
IN THE ACTIVITIES CENTER: Playing at home has always been a
big key for the Lady Yotes, as ACI has posted a 92-40 all-time record in the J.A. Albertson
Activities Center.
CONFERENCE PLAY SET TO OPEN UP THIS
WEEKEND: All ten
teams in the Cascade Conference open up play this weekend, one of three sets of
nights teams will play before the new year. Key match-ups include Corban
at Oregon Tech, Northwest at Warner Pacific, and Eastern
Oregon at ACI.
