Jon Coleman
Head Coach
Third Season
Head Coach Jon Coleman
Jon Coleman was named the men’s soccer coach at Milwaukee on Dec. 27, 2005, just the fifth head coach in school history. The 2008 season will mark his 16th-straight at UWM as
a coach, assistant coach or player.
Two seasons into his coaching career, Coleman has fielded
teams that have been competitive and strong defensively,
yet have struggled to have much to show for it in the winloss column. After a 5-12-3 record in the 2007 season, 17
of UWM’s 21 losses over the past two years have been by
just one goal. Following a slow start a year ago, the Panthers
rebounded to go 5-2-1 in Horizon League play to earn the
No. 2 seed in the league tournament. The one-goal loss came
back to haunt them again in the postseason, as they fell, 1-0,
in overtime to a UIC team that went on to advance to the
Elite Eight of the NCAA Tournament.
“I was proud of the way the team fought hard throughout the
season last year,” Coleman said. “Even though we were on
the short end of some really close games, we didn’t lose sight
of winning the conference and finished strong in the league.
This is the kind of resilience and perseverance we need to
bring to the field this fall.”
The Panthers went 8-9-2 in his first season at the helm, with
eight of the nine losses coming by one goal - including three
to Top 25 teams (1-0 to #2 SMU, 2-1 to #6 Washington and
1-0 to #12 UIC). After hitting its stride at the end of the regular season with a six-game unbeaten streak (5-0-1), UWM
had its season come to an end in a very unfamiliar spot. The
Panthers were upset by Butler in the first round of the Horizon League Tournament, ending a streak of five-straight appearances in the league tournament championship.
Coleman is a former UWM player who served as an assistant coach for the program for nine seasons (1997-2005).
While on the sidelines, Coleman helped direct the Panthers
to unprecedented success, including five consecutive NCAA
Tournament berths. Having been involved with the Panthers
for so long, Coleman was very
happy to continue his long-time
relationship at UWM by taking
the next step.
Coleman’s career with the Panthers started on the field, as he
was a four-year letterwinner from
1993-96. He played in 73 games as
a midfielder, starting 63. In 1995,
he was named an All-Midwestern
Collegiate Conference team selection and also won the Coach’s
Award his senior year as a team
captain. He posted an overall
record of 56-22-6 (.702 winning
percentage) on the playing field in
his four seasons, spending three
years under the direction of Brian
Tompkins. His teams also went
25-7-3 in league play, winning a
conference title in 1993.
He joined Louis Bennett’s staff after finishing his playing career in 1996, serving as a volunteer assistant until being named
a full-time assistant prior to the 2001 season. In Coleman’s
tenure as an assistant, the Panthers posted an overall record
of 123-59-14 (.663) and enjoyed unprecedented success.
In 2005, they reached the NCAA Tournament for the fifth-consecutive season and became one of only seven schools to post
victories in each of the last four tournaments when they made
it to the second round for the fourth-straight year. Additionally, the Panthers claimed five regular season conference titles
and four Horizon League Tournament titles under his watch.
His recruiting efforts have not gone unnoticed, as UWM players have been regularly recognized by the Horizon League
with postseason honors: three times they have been named
Player of the Year to go along with 22 first team and 20 second
team all-conference selections. In addition, 32 players have
been selected for the conference all-tournament team. Panther players have been honored nationally, as well, as Tighe
Dombrowski (2003), Antou Jallow (2002) and Chad Dombrowski (2002) have all earned various All-American honors.
Additionally, Coleman holds a USSF ‘B’ coaching license as
well as an NSCAA Premier license.
UWM head coach Jon Coleman has spent the past 16 years with the UWM men’s soccer program.

Jesse Rosen
Assistant Coach
Third Season
First Season
Chris Dadaian begins his third season as an assistant coach
for the Milwaukee men’s soccer team. He works closely with
head coach Jon Coleman on all aspects. He also works with
all players, specifically on developing the goalkeepers.
“Chris has been through the program and played in the NCAA
Tournament,” Coleman said. “He is willing to do whatever it
takes to get back into the tournament and prepare the team
to make a run. He is a hard-working, passionate coach who
is prepared to elevate the program. He has also worked very
hard since coming on staff to connect with the alumni and
keep the black and gold family strong.”
His goals against average of 0.54 in 2002 was third in the nation that season and was a school record until it was broken
in 2005. He also holds Milwaukee standards with 21 career
shutouts, 16 wins in a season and 42 victories in a career. His
scoreless streak of 741:63, as part of a record seven-straight
shutouts during the 2002 season, is also the longest in school
history.
Dadaian has prior
experience coaching with the Milwaukee Bavarians
and the Racine
Soccer Club. Currently, he coaches
with the Wisconsin Olympic Development Program. In addition,
he is the director
of Camp Shutout:
The

Dadaian has his
NSCAA

Jesse Rosen begins his first season as an assistant coach for the
University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee men’s soccer team. He joins
the staff from Marquette University where he was an assistant
coach for two seasons.
“I am very excited to have Jesse Rosen on staff,” UWM head
coach Jon Coleman said. “Jesse and I go back a long way and
have a good understanding of each other. He will be a great addition to the program. He brings experience and a real love for the
game and will help with recruiting and the everyday aspects. I
am looking forward to the dynamics of the coaching staff.”
Rosen, considered one of the top youth coaches in the state, has
won state championships at every level of soccer from U13 to 23.
He comes to UWM after serving time as the Director of Coaching for the Bavarian Soccer Club of Milwaukee, one of the nation’s
oldest and most storied clubs. In 2006, his first year at the helm,
he led their first-ever women’s team to the U23 Wisconsin State
Championship and the Bavarian U15 Boys to the state final.
A Milwaukee native, Rosen played collegiate soccer at the University of Hartford (Conn.) where his team set school records
for wins in a season (17) and advanced to the Elite Eight of the
NCAA tournament in 1996. He was named Team MVP his senior
year and to the New England Schools Senior Bowl. Following
his senior season, he was drafted as a forward by the Mississippi
Beach Kings of the Eastern Indoor Soccer League. He spent two
additional years as a reserve forward for the 2000 Major Indoor
Soccer League Champion Milwaukee Wave.
He holds a USSF `B’ License as well as a K.N.V.B. Coaching Certificate (Dutch Federation Residential Coaching School).
Jake Provan
Volunteer Assistant Coach
Second Season
Jake Provan returns for his second season as the Milwaukee men’s
soccer volunteer assistant coach.
Provan was a four-year letterwinner as a player at UWM (1992-95),
earning first team all-conference honors and a spot on the All-Midwest
team in 1995 and second team all-league honors in 1993. He also held
the distinction of scoring the fastest goal in program history, hitting
the back of the net just 23 seconds into a game against Alabama A&M
in the 1993 season.
Provan has over 10 years of coaching experience and presently coaches
for the Bavarian Soccer Club, Brookfield Soccer Club and the Wisconsin Olympic Development program.
Provan possesses a U.S. Soccer Federation ‘A’ Coaching License and a
Masters Degree in Education.

As Director of Sport’s Medicine, John
Ochsenwald oversees the university’s
sports medicine department.
Ochsenwald is also in his 16th season as the head athletic trainer for the
men’s soccer team. Ochsenwald, who
assumed his duties in July 1992, supervises assistant trainers and student
trainers in all sports, and serves as staff
athletic trainer for the men’s soccer and
men’s and women’s swimming programs. He is also a clinical
assistant professor and teacher in the Athletic Training Education Program.
Ochsenwald came to UWM from the University of Illinois,
where he was an assistant athletic trainer for 10 years. At Illinois, Ochsenwald worked primarily with the football, baseball
and wrestling teams. A 1980 graduate of The Ohio State University, Ochsenwald received his master’s degree from Illinois
in 1982. He worked at Illinois as a graduate assistant athletic
trainer before assuming a full-time position there.
Support Staff
Ochsenwald and his wife, Jan, have two children, Jenna and
Jamie, and make their home in Cedarburg, Wis.
Video duties for the men’s soccer team
once again fall into the capable hands of
longtime supporter Paul Coleman.
Coleman, the father of current Panther
head coach Jon Coleman, will enter his
15th season with the program.
Coleman’s career began earnestly
enough when he used to film Jon’s games
during his four-year Panther career in
the early and late 90’s. Louis Bennett,
who took over as head coach in 1996, then began using Coleman’s films as a scouting tool. Coleman, a retired psychology
social worker, then joined the staff on a more “full-time” basis
and has become a mainstay of the program ever since. And,
due to his expertise, Coleman served as the filmographer for
the A-League’s Milwaukee Rampage in 2001 and 2002.
A resident of Milwaukee, Coleman has been married to his
wife Jeannette for 36 years. The couple has two children, Sara
and Jon.
One of the most well-known faces
around Panther Athletics is Michael
Poll. He helps as a team manager with
many of the UWM Athletic teams and
is a presence at most soccer games and
practices. Poll is also involved with
the UWM volleyball team, the baseball team and both basketball teams.

Over the past 10 seasons at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, defense
has always been a key ingredient for the
men’s soccer team. It has given up an
average of just 24.6 goals per year over
the past decade and that has resulted in
winning over 65% of its games. During
the 2007 season, the Panthers allowed
just 24 goals, yet their record at the end
of the year was 5-12-3. Also, the campaign featured nine one-goal losses and
five 1-0 defeats.
Season Preview
Jon Coleman (below), who starts his
third season as the head coach this fall,
thought he had seen it all in his first year,
but 2007 was a hard one to swallow.
“Last season was difficult because all of
the games were close - we could have
ended up on either side of them – but we
ended up on the losing side,” Coleman
said. “Obviously, the record was disappointing last year. But I think that has
stirred some fire in everyone and given
them that extra ‘fight’. Going into next
season, the players that were here last
year have a bad taste in their mouths.
And the new players coming in - knowing this is a very important season - I
think we are going to see this 2008 team
really battle and fight for everything.”
Studying the stat sheet provided no answers either. Milwaukee outshot its opponents in 12 of 20 games on the season
and forced more corner kicks in 13 of
those 20 contests.
The biggest difference this season will
be the roster. Gone is an experienced
2008

senior class of six players that included
All-Horizon League players Steve Bode
and Zeke Dombrowski. The team will
also be returning just two of its top six
scorers and will be brining in a new
class of 15 newcomers. That will mean
that over half of the 2008 roster did not
appear in a Panther uniform in 2007.
sibility to see who is going to be sharp
and perform. It is what they do over the
next four months that will determine
what will happen when they are given an
opportunity. I mean, let’s face it - Grant
and Ryan are both coming into their senior seasons, neither one of them is going to want to watch.”
“The quality players we brought in have
been doing the right things over the last
six or seven months to help gear them
up for the upcoming season,” Coleman
said. “They are all pretty quick learners.
They have been playing at a high level
even though it has not been at the college level. And, with the core of guys
we have coming back, they have put a
lot of time and work in this spring and
they are gearing up for the year and that
will carry over to the next group. We
still have guys that have the experience
of having been to the tournament and,
knowing what that is like, have also contributed through the years. That group,
along with the coaching staff, will help
the new group coming in as we go forward.”
“It will be fantastic with four players
competing for one position,” assistant
and goalkeeper coach Chris Dadaian
said. “This could be the strongest goalkeeping unit in UWM history.”
The back line, always a strong part of the
UWM attack, will again feature several
players with significant experience under
their belts. Senior Travis Phillips (below) will serve as team captain. He played
in 18 games last season and has started
the last 42 times he has taken the field.
That is not to say the team will be leaning on its newcomers alone – UWM
will have six returners that were starters
a season ago.
“I think the experience we return will be
significant,” Coleman said. “The returners we have in the back will affect the
way the opposition will score goals and
will help us stay in games.”
One of the most experienced positions
will be in goal, where seniors Grant
Fernstrum and Ryan Germann will be
battling it out for playing time. Not to
be counted out will be redshirt freshman Sam Alexander and true freshman
John Shakon.
“I think all the goalkeepers have shown
they can play during the spring,” Coleman said. “It’s going to be their respon-
“With Phillips’ experience, he has played
numerous amounts of minutes and been
a steady influence back there,” Coleman
said. “I think he’ll be able to give us some
of that experience back there, some of
that composure.”
Joining him will be sophomore Greg
Rosenthal, who was named to the Horizon All-Newcomer Team after an impressive freshman season. He appeared
in all 20 games, starting 17 times. Junior
Nkuti Ndely will also have an upper
hand on a starting spot.

“Greg (Rosenthal, below) was a consistent and strong player for us last year
and is a stable player in the back who
will be able to take some leadership and
provide us some minutes,” Coleman
said. “Nkuti has played quite a few minutes as well and will be counted on.”
The midfield lost a few key pieces last
season and Coleman thinks it will have
the most competition for starting spots
on the field.
“I think the freshmen from last season
developed tremendously,” Coleman
said. “They have a year under their belts
so they know the lay of the land and our
system and the way we play. And, they
have the ability to really make some
contributions. They are going to have
to make sure they come in fit and ready
and that will make all of the difference.”
On paper, one of the biggest issues the
Panthers had last season was scoring
goals. Losing four of their top six point
leaders from 2007 begs the question of
where the offense will come from.
Senior Adam Skalecki will look to close
out his career with a breakout season.
Among returners, Refai and Abe Gibbons will also see time on top.
One of the things Milwaukee has going
for it was that several of the freshman
last year saw significant playing time. In
addition to Rosenthal, Robert Refai (16
games played, pictured at right) and Peter Sanger (15 games) did more than just
get their feet wet as newcomers.

“I think everyone is going to have an
opportunity, it will just be what they do
with that opportunity,” Coleman said.
“There are a number of guys on the team
right now that can contribute up top
and a number of players coming in that
can as well. It’s going to be the individuals that are willing to take that initiative.
How are we going to do it? We will do it
in a number of ways – set pieces, run of
play, services. But at the same time, we
need some individuals who are willing
to step up and take that role. And I think
we have a number of guys who can do
that. Sanger, Evan Bartzis, we have the
players that are capable of doing it, now
it’s just a matter of doing it and getting it
done. Skalecki, Robert, those guys have
the capability of putting up points. And
I think they are going to get a load of opportunities this season.”
One thing that will steer the course of
the 2008 campaign will be the contributions of the 16 newcomers - including a
12-member incoming recruiting class.
“All around, this is one of the best recruiting classes we have had,” Coleman said. “And every one of them is
capable of playing at any given time. It
is a group that is really committed and
dedicated to what they are going to do
next year. For the guys coming in, it’s going to depend on how quick they adjust,
how they make the transition and how
quickly they develop. But, I don’t think
it’s going to be that easy. Our returners
are going to want to play. The new guys
are going to play a huge role. They will
build the squad and make it as strong as
possible. With the quality of players we
have, and the numbers we have coming
in, there will be plenty of competition
for spots. So I think we will get the most
out of every player.”
The following is Coleman’s perspective
on how the newcomers will fall in for
UWM position-wise:
Goalkeeper: Alexander and Shakon
Defense: DJ Alexander, Josh Barnes,
Nick Dundon, Van Osdol, Pedro Mejia
Midfield: Barnes, Eric Frazier, Aaron
Gibbons, Tony Maxey, Van Osdol,
Mejia
Forward: Evan Bartzis, Stephen Romanello, Joe Wehrli
“I am really excited about the season,”
Coleman said. “The guys we have now
have been working really hard and the
new guys coming in are really eager. I am
looking forward to meshing them all together and establishing a common goal
while playing some exciting soccer at the
same time. I think we will play exciting
soccer, I think we will play quality soccer. And there is no doubt in my mind
we will be competitive. We will be right
there knocking on the door. And we are
not going to be an easy team to beat.”

Season Preview
“I think it is difficult to figure out the
midfield,” Coleman said. “We lost two
pretty significant players (seniors Zeke
Dombrowski and Tenzin Rampa) so the
door of opportunity has swung open.
Currently, Ross (Van Osdol) coming
in early has been helpful. GL (Nicholas
Gerard-Larson) has moved in there
and done really well. I think it depends
on those players we have now, how they
prepare themselves, and the new guys
coming in as well. I think the opportunity is there, but we are just looking for
some consistent minutes. For us, the
midfield is the engine that keeps the
car running. So we are going to need
strong, capable guys to be playing there.
We have a number of players to choose
from. Out of the three spots, we have
five or six to choose from so it’s going to
be really competitive.”

Their Andromeda `90 team, based
in north Texas, defeated ShattuckSt. Mary’s (Minn.), 3-0, to add to
the title it won in 2007. A penalty
kick in the 12th minute started the
scoring before the team took a 2-0

Both players recorded strong performances: Frazier scored three
goals throughout the championships and Alexander was a strong
and steady presence at right defender. Frazier came up big in the
pool-play opener at the tournament, scoring off his own rebound
shot as time expired to earn a hardfought 2-2 draw in the contest.

BODE NAMED ATHLETE OF THE YEAR
Steve Bode wrapped up his illustrious
career by being named the Pepsi/UWM
Male Athlete of the Year. He also received
the prestigious UWM Alumni Association Herman Kluge Award.
2007 Season In Review
Bode was a three-time all-league selection, a team captain for three years and
a starter for all four of his seasons in Milwaukee.
He started all 83 games he played in his
career, missing just two of UWM’s matches in that span due to injury. As a sophomore and a senior, he was named team
most valuable player. He led the Panthers
to the second round of the NCAA Tournament in each of his first two seasons
on the field, winning one regular season
Horizon League Championship and two
Horizon League tournament titles in his
career. He was also named to the league
all-tournament team on two occasions
and set career-highs with 11 points and
five goals as a sophomore.
In the classroom, Bode earned all-region
scholar-athlete honors three times from
the National Soccer Coaches Association
of America while posting a 3.676 cumulative grade-point average. He also collected third-team ESPN The Magazine
Academic All-America recognition and
was a three-year member of the Horizon
League All-Academic Team. He also received the Horizon League Sportsmanship Award after the 2005 campaign.
After wrapping up his college career,
Bode was drafted by the Chicago Fire of
MLS and by the Milwaukee Wave.
SHINING IN LEAGUE PLAY
After a slow start to the 2007 season, the
Panthers righted the ship in time for the
start of Horizon League play. In their eight
conference games, the team gave up just
five goals (posting four clean sheets) for a
team goals against average of 0.61.
They held edges in every statistical category:
goals (9-5), assists (8-5), shots (95-85),
shots on goal (41-31) and corner kicks (4838). Five different players accounted for
the five game-winning goals en route to a
second-place showing in the standings.

In addition to Bode continuing his career in the world of professional soccer,
former UWM player Tenzin Rampa was
also drafted following his senior campaign by the Milwaukee Wave in the fifth
round of the 2008 Major Indoor Soccer
League College Draft.
QUICK ONE FOR PHILLIPS
Travis Phillips gave Milwaukee a 1-0
lead against Yale last season before most
people had even found their seats. Phillips caught the Yale goalkeeper off guard
with a 35-yard blast off a free kick from
near midfield in the first minute of play.
The tally at the 55-second mark was the
sixth-quickest goal to start a match in
program history.

The Panthers hit a significant milestone
in their program history Oct. 12 against
Detroit: all-time victory No. 400. UWM
had entered play in 2007 with an all-time
mark of 397-222-53, a .635 winning percentage.

HITTING THE BOOKS
UWM had three players honored for
their work in the classroom by the league
office. Steve Bode, Zeke Dombrowski
and Ken Ogorzalek were all named to
the Horizon Academic All-League Team
in December. Dombrowski was also selected as the league Scholar Athlete of the
Week in October.
The Panther men were also once again
named a recipient of the NCSAA/adidas
Team Academic Award from the National
Soccer Coaches Association of America.
SO CLOSE, SO FAR: PART II
If it feels like the Panthers have been in
every match but haven’t been able to
catch a few necessary breaks, it could be
considered a factual statement. After a
1-0 defeat in overtime against UIC in the
semifinals of the Horizon League Tournament Nov. 16, the trend sounds familiar: 17 of the last 20 UWM losses dating
back the past two seasons have been by
just one goal.
In 2006, the Panthers overall record consisted of nine losses, with eight of them
one-goal setbacks. Three of them came at
the hands of Top 25 teams: 1-0 to No. 2
SMU Aug. 27, 2-1 to No. 6 Washington in
overtime Sept. 10 and 1-0 to No. 12 UIC
Oct. 3.
OVERTIME JINX CONTINUES
In having its season come to a close with
an overtime loss, UWM saw a streak get
extended once again that they would like
to put to rest: the team is now 0-7-11 in
its past 18 overtime matches. They were
0-2-3 in 2007, 0-2-2 in 2006, 0-3-5 in 2005
and lost in extra time in the final match
of the 2004 season (2-1 at UCSB in the
NCAA Tournament). The Panthers last
OT victory came Oct. 31, 2004, a 1-0 win
over Cleveland State.
ONE-ZERO SOUND FAMILIAR?
UWM closed out the season by playing its
ninth 1-0 game of the year against UIC in
the league tournament. After starting 0-5
in such decisions, the Panthers did record
victories in three of the final four, going 3-6
in those nine 1-0 affairs.
THE OTHER “FOOTBALL”
Jake Provan, the volunteer assistant
coach for the Panthers both this season
and in 2007, got a chance to be a part of
the Milwaukee Bonecrushers roster last
year as their kicker. Provan also went into
the team record books by scoring the first
points in franchise history on a 22-yard
field goal in the season opener.
The Bonecrushers play in the CIFL, a 12team league based in Canton, Ohio.

MADISON, Wis. - Senior Zeke Dombrowski gave the
University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee men’s soccer team
a 1-0 lead in the second half, but it could not hold on in
falling to Western Michigan, 2-1, in the season opener
for both teams Friday night.
Recaps and Box Scores
Dombrowski put home a penalty kick at the 51:10 mark,
scoring easily after junior Colin Baker was brought down
in the box by a Western Michigan defender. UWM could
not hold the momentum, as the Broncos struck for the
equalizer at the 52:19 mark and for the eventual gamewinner less than 10 minutes later. Both goals came as a
result of Milwaukee miscues.

escape with a 2-1 overtime victory over the University
of Wisconsin-Milwaukee men’s soccer team in Madison. With the result, the Golden Hurricane (2-0) give
the Panthers (0-2) back-to-back one-goal losses at the
Middleton Cycle & Fitness Invitational.
The game-winner came at the 95:01 mark, when
DeFreitas beat junior goalkeeper Ryan Germann to
a loose ball in the box that was flicked on by a Tulsa
player. After out-shooting Tulsa 15-10 in regulation, the
Milwaukee offense was unable to record a shot in the
overtime session. Milwaukee had a final chance right
before the end of regulation on a free kick, but senior
Zeke Dombrowski’s shot over the wall went just above
the cross bar with 20 seconds left.

could not find a way to upset the defending national
champions.
Milwaukee seemed to find its offensive stride in the
second half, outshooting UCSB seven-to-five after intermission. The team also had numerous chances in the
final 10 minutes of the game. The closest came with less
then seven minutes left, when freshman Greg Rosenthal
sent one off the cross bar from just outside the six-yard

without a victory on their weekend trip to California.
The Panthers (0-6) played the nationally-ranked Bulldogs (3-2) evenly throughout the match, but could not
find a way to overcome giving up two goals in a fiveminute stretch early in the second half.
Cal Poly struck for the game-winner at the 32:54 mark.
Kyle Montgomery threaded a square ball through traffic
right along the top of the 18-yard box. Daniel Cumming
was able to put one over the keeper for his third goal
of the season.
The biggest play of the second half occurred in the
56th minute. After a steal in back, Gonzaga’s George
Josten flicked a ball to a teammate on the break. Junior
goalkeeper Ryan Germann came off his line to get to the
ball at the top of the box, but was called for a foul on the
tackle that resulted in a penalty kick situation.
The Panthers came very close to finding the equalizer
in the 80th minute. Senior Zeke Dombrowski sent a
25-yard blast to the near post that was saved by Cal
Poly keeper Eric Branagan-Franco. The Panthers pushed
forward to try and find a way to send the game to overtime, but it was not meant to be for UWM.

Rampa sent a 25-yard shot from the right side of the
penalty area on goal with just 10 seconds remaining
in the match. It made it over the head of the Drake
goalkeeper, but caught just enough of the cross bar to
prevent it from finding the back of the net and sending
the game to overtime.
Josten then put in the PK to tie the game and turn the
momentum. The Bulldogs capitalized again just 4:36

in the box and ripped a shot on goal. Ryan Schwarz
made the diving save, with the ball rebounding back to

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. - Freshman Robert Refai scored
a goal and assisted another, leading the University of
Wisconsin-Milwaukee men’s soccer team to a 3-0 victory over Butler University on the road Friday night.
The Panthers (1-8-1, 1-0-1 Horizon) have now beaten
the Bulldogs (4-5-2, 1-1-0 Horizon) in eight of the last
10 meetings between the two teams.
The Panthers didn’t wait long to net the eventual
game-winner, as Refai flicked a throw-in to senior Ken
Ogorzalek, who buried the shot to make it 1-0 just
12:17 into the game.
Milwaukee looked to take the one-goal lead into halftime, but had to have a big save from junior goalkeeper
Ryan Germann to make it that far. In the 43rd minute,
a foul on UWM gave Butler’s Boris Gatzky a penalty
kick. Germann was credited with the save, getting a
piece of the ball and knocking it up and off the cross bar
to keep the momentum going and the shutout in place.
Milwaukee would go on to add two more second-half
goals, with Refai tallying his second of the season just

DAYTON, Ohio - Senior Zeke Dombrowski scored
early in the match to lead the University of WisconsinMilwaukee men’s soccer team to a 1-0 victory over
Wright State University Sunday. The Panthers (2-8-1,
2-0-1 Horizon) remain undefeated in their three Horizon League contests this season with the win over the
Raiders (2-9-0, 0-2-0 Horizon).
The only goal of the match came quickly at the 5:58
mark, when Dombrowski netted the first game-winner
of his UWM career. After a corner kick was sent back
out by senior Tenzin Rampa, freshman Elliott Dunn
started the second-phase attack with a move around
his defender. He chipped the ball to the far post, finding
Dombrowski who finished with a perfect volley into
the back of the net.
The Panthers made that tally stand up the rest of the way
with a solid all-around effort. The defense was strong
once again, recording its second-straight clean sheet
over the two-game weekend road trip. Milwaukee has
not allowed a goal in 192:08 of play in its three-game
unbeaten streak.

with the only goal allowed coming on a penalty kick by
Sho Fujita in the 61st minute after a Milwaukee defender
tripped up Brandon Miller at the top of the box. UWM
found the equalizer quickly, hitting the back of the net
at the 68:37 mark to tie it up.
After a hand ball was called on the Badgers, senior Zeke
Dombrowski took a 30-yard free kick, sending it low
on the ground around the wall to junior Colin Baker,
who was streaking into the goal box. Baker timed it
perfectly, with his eight-yard shot beating the keeper

to lead the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee men’s

Detroit-Mercy Friday night. The win also marked the
400th in program history.
In a defensive battle, the Panthers (3-8-2, 3-0-1 Horizon) made the lone goal stand up against the Titans
(4-6-4, 0-2-2 Horizon), who had come into the game
having not given up a goal in two-straight matches and
posting shutouts in four of their last six outings.
Baker found the back of the net in the 61st minute, heading home the game-winner from about eight yards out
off a perfect lead pass from senior Zeke Dombrowski to
extend UWM’s unbeaten streak to five games (3-0-2).
The defense did the rest, posting its third shutout in the
past five games. Germann was called on to make just
two saves, stopping a harmless chance in the first half
and coming up big with just over a minute left in the
game, punching a 35-yard blast by Simon Zahra up and
over the cross bar. He extended his scoreless streak to

on from there, giving up a goal in the 40th minute, but
never letting the Vikings find the equalizer.
Freshman Greg Rosenthal started the scoring at the
16:14 mark, finding the back of the net from just past
midfield when his long-distance shot skipped off the wet
field, hit the far post and caromed into the net.
Senior Martin Castro scored the eventual game-winner just 1:32 later, stopping a cross from senior Tenzin
Rampa that carried through the goal box and firing a
left-footed shot over the CSU keeper. Castro made a
quick impression, scoring the goal just 31 seconds after

DeKALB, Ill. - The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee

the contest was the only score in a 1-0 loss. The Huskies
(6-8-4) maintain possession of the LeWang Cup with
the victory over the Panthers (5-11-3) in what was the
final regular season match for both teams.
Scoreless well into the second half, the Panthers caught
a break in the 70th minute when NIU’s Luis De La
Cerda missed a penalty kick after a foul was called on
a Milwaukee defender in the box. UWM looked to use
that momentum, but the tide turned on the decisive
play just eight minutes later.
A foul was called just prior to the goal, setting up a 25yard free kick for Northern Illinois. De La Cerda took
the free kick, floating one in front of the goal box. The
ball went off freshman Raphael Martinez in the opposite
direction of where junior goalkeeper Grant Fernstrum
was, deflecting into the back of the net.

CHICAGO, Ill. - Kevin Stoll scored the game-winning goal at the 93:59 mark of overtime, sending the
University of Illinois at Chicago to a 1-0 victory over
the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee men’s soccer
team Friday night at Loyola Soccer Park. The Panthers
(5-12-3) see their season come to a close in the Horizon
League semifinals, while the Flames (10-5-5) advance
to play in the tournament championship game against
Green Bay Sunday.
A defensive struggle throughout, junior goalkeeper
Grant Fernstrum kept the Panthers in the game all
evening. With just over eight minutes remaining in
overtime, he made a full-out diving stop off a closerange header that saved the game at the time.
Less than two minutes later, the Flames played a quick
corner kick up the sideline and then chipped the ball
into the goal box. After deflecting off two players, the
ball fell right to Stoll who sent one past Fernstrum to
end it.
Chances in the game for either side were few and far
between all match and Fernstrum was able to come
up with every stop he needed throughout the match.
With less than a minute remaining in regulation, he
made a tough stop on a free kick off the foot of Pavle
Dundjer.

trip to the NCAA Tournament. Ranked
14th in the nation and second in the region, UWM earned a second-straight
bid into the NCAA field.
Awaiting the Panthers in the tourney
was familiar foe Cleveland State. The Vikings sat just behind Milwaukee in the
regional rankings at No. 3, while holding
No. 17 national spot.

could not convert on an equalizer. CSU
gained an 11-9 shot advantage in a tightly-played match.
Played at Bavarian Field, the 3,000 fans

also the first of three NCAA matches

Much like 1979, Milwaukee was led on
the offensive side of the ball by Pete Knezic, Fabio Marras and Tunji Akiwowo,
combining on 33 goals scored, while

Behind the freshman duo of Manny
Lagos and Tony Sanneh, the Panthers
stormed their way into the national
rankings, then into their first NCAA
Tournament in 10 years. It was the
team’s third-straight at-large berth into
the tourney.
After a 10-year layoff, UWM had no
easy task in drawing Indiana, just two
years removed from its third national
championship. IU had also topped the
Panthers, 2-1, in the regular season. In

A Decade Of Dombrowski’s For UWM Men’s Soccer
By: UWM Assistant Sports Information Director Chris Zills
What started innocently enough in August of 1997 has taken on
a life of its own for the Dombrowski family and the University of
Wisconsin-Milwaukee men’s soccer program.
Fast-forward 10 years: Five soccer-playing brothers from the same
West Allis family have left a large and lasting imprint on the UWM
program. Each is an accomplished four-year letterwinner in his
own right and at least one of the Dombrowski’s – Scott (1997-2000),
Chad (1999-2002), Tighe (2000-03), Neil (2002-05) and Zeke (200407) have been on the field for the Panthers since the start of the
1997 season. They have helped Milwaukee to a record of 136-80-19
and a league record of 56-15-7. The list of accomplishments also
includes five regular season titles, five league tournament crowns
and five trips to the NCAA Tournament.
“The program has enjoyed every moment with the Dombrowski’s
and will continue to do so,” Coleman said. “They have definitely
put their mark on the program and know that UWM will always be
home for them. It has truly been a decade to remember.”
The biggest difference for Coleman in the 2008 season will take
place on the field for the first game of the season. There won’t be a
Dombrowski name announced over the loudspeaker in the starting
line-up for the first time in over 10 years.
“It will be very different and strange not to have one on the field,”
Coleman said. “But, even if we do not get to see one on the field this
fall, we hope to see as many as possible at Engelmann Field over the
course of the season.”
The tradition of wearing the Black and Gold goes back to Scott,
who was a Team MVP and Coach’s Award recipient in 1999, an AllGreat Lakes Region selection in 1999 and a first-team all-conference selection in 2000. He insists it wasn’t a tough choice at the
time – he chose to go to
UWM because it was close
to home and when he was
younger, his dad had taken
him watch some UWM
home games.
He had no idea what he
was starting…
“I did not see the potential
for all of us to go to UWM
when I was there,” Scott
said. “We talked to one another about what it was like
to play at UWM, but we
never really talked about
it in terms of a big picture.
2008
MILWAUKEE
Everyone seemed to make their own decision to play at UWM, and
everything else just turned out really well for each one of us and
our family.”
One by one, the younger siblings followed. Chad came next, and by
the time Scott was a senior, Tighe was a freshman. It was up to Scott
to be the big brother and the best influence he could.
“It was actually very easy being the ‘big’ brother in 2000,” Scott said.
“Chad and Tighe are both excellent players as well as extremely hard
workers on the field, and they are good people to be around off the
field, so they fit in extremely well. Being able to play on the same
team at UWM was extremely special, but it was an easy fit.”
Scott, a team captain in 2000, went on to a professional career that
included stints with the Milwaukee Wave and Milwaukee Rampage.
He currently coaches the Milwaukee Bavarians U-17 team and still
counts two lasting memories as his favorite from his time at Milwaukee.
“The first one is playing in the MCC Championship game in 1997,”
Scott said. “It was against Butler, at Engelmann, in the snow. The
second is obviously being on the field with Chad and Tighe during
my last year in 2000.”
Chad was the second
brother to play at UWM,
and left quite an impression of his own. His was
long-lasting as well, as he
continues to make his living
playing professionally, most
recently with the Carolina
RailHawks of the USL. He
also became the first player from Milwaukee to be
drafted by Major League
Soccer, when the Chicago
Fire selected him with the
43rd pick in 2002.
He earned numerous accolades as a Panther, including SecondTeam NSCAA All-America honors in 2002. He also was a two-time
First-Team Great Lakes Region selection and a two-time First-Team
All-Horizon League honoree. His pro career includes time with the
RailHawks, Minnesota Thunder, Milwaukee Wave and Chicago
Fire. He helped lead the Wave to an MISL Championship in 2005.
Following Scott to UWM was an easy choice for Chad, as well.
“My family and I attended UWM games in the late 1980’s and
watched some memorable games at Engelmann Field,” Chad said.
“We grew up watching the Lagos brothers, Jon Mroz, Scott Schweibel, Tony Sanneh to name a few. Then, when it became time for me
to look at colleges, coach (Louis) Bennett was my state team coach
- he liked me as a player and I loved his passion for the game. Plus at
the time, I didn’t have very many other options, because people did
not look to schools like West Allis Hale for soccer talent.”
Chad’s career on the pitch included four-straight winning seasons,

UWM head coach Jon Coleman has been there for all of it, starting
as an assistant coach with the program in 1997 up until the 2007
campaign which was his second has the head coach of the Panthers.
He considers it a great story and is glad to have been part of it all.

capped by a phenomenal 19-2-1 record his senior season in 2002.
However, the wins, ties and losses were all the same to him. It was
the other things that went in to being a soccer player at UWM that
stuck with Chad.
First-Team All-League recognition. Tighe joined Chad on the list
of drafted Panthers, taken 50th overall by the San Jose Earthquakes
in the 2004 MLS SuperDraft. His teams won 55 games in his four
years.
“The training sessions at the lake and the work in the spring season
we did to make sure we could compete in the fall were some of my
lasting memories,” Chad said. “My junior year is the season I remember the best, because up until that year we were working with
a belief that we could be a top-ranked college team. During that
season we got our first national ranking and it was such a validation
to all our hard work.”
“What I take with me is being part of and helping to build teams
that were very successful and doing it in a way that I was very proud
of and enjoyed a lot,” Tighe said.
Chad had the opportunity to play with two brothers at the same
time on a pair of occasions – first in 2000 and then again during the
2002 campaign.
“Having three of us on the team in 2000 was great,” Tighe said. “I
loved playing with my brothers because they’re great players. They
also kept me in line and showed me what it took to be a better player. We’re not the type of family to have a serious sit-down and hand
out advice, but by what they said or how they acted I knew if I was
out of line or if I needed to play better. Most importantly, when I
was playing well, their confidence in me made me play even better.
There were also three of us in 2002, and we had the best season in
school history. If you look at years where there were at least two of
us, chances are it was a great season.”
“It’s great when you can watch your younger brothers grow up as
players and people from up close,” Chad said. “It’s also an advantage knowing teammates so well. It helps mesh a team, because you
know the work ethic of your brothers. I don’t think I thought as
much about it in the moment as I look back now and realize how
special it was. All my brothers worked everyday to make themselves
and the team better.”
Chad turned his time as a Panther into a lengthy professional career
that is now going on to its seventh season. He credits the program
with getting him to where he is today.
“The coaching staff of coach (Louis) Bennett, coach (Stan) Anderson and coach (Jon) Coleman created an atmosphere that was intense on a day-to-day basis,” Chad said. “Individually, they offered
personal knowledge that has helped me along the way. I still occasionally look to each one of them for advice. They are great friends
who want nothing but the best from their players.”
Third in line to put on a Panther uniform was Tighe, who fell back
to the same story line on how he approached choosing a college and
place to play the game he loved. He got to know the program well
from his brothers and watching games growing up.
“I really liked the atmosphere within the program, the attitude towards soccer and how they approached the game,” Tighe said. “Having Scott and Chad there
was a huge factor. Not because I wanted to be with
them just because they
were my brothers, but because I knew they were top
college players and with
players like that it would be
a good team.”
Tighe made quite a name
for himself as well, earning
Honorable Mention Soccer
Times All-America status
in 2003 as well as two-time
First-Team Great Lakes
Region and three-time

MILWAUKEE
His largest connections to the brother storyline came in his freshman year of 2000, when Scott was a senior and also in 2002, when
Chad was a senior.
Tighe has also gone on to a successful professional career, returning
stateside to the Minnesota Thunder recently after extended playing
time for IK Sirius in Sweden over the past few seasons.
“The attention to detail at UWM from the coaching staff prepared
me a lot for the pro game,” Tighe said. “I also learned that it’s more
than just what you do on the field, but also what you do off the field
that gives you the tools to be a professional.”
Tighe is very proud of the legacy that his family has left on the
UWM program.
“Most of us didn’t get that much respect or credit for what we did
until we proved that we were top division one players,” Tighe said.
“Not many people expected a family out of West Allis to have so
much success in soccer. Sometimes having so many of us go through
the program hides the fact that we all had successful college careers
in our own right. Neil and Zeke had to deal with people doubting them just because they were another Dombrowski. They both
showed that they were successful because of the quality of their play
and not the name on their shirt. The people within the program
knew that. With that said, having so many of us play at UWM to the
level that we did is something that I can look at with pride knowing
that it was a rare thing.”
Neil was the fourth of the siblings to come through the program and
did something that none of the others did before him – he took his
team to the NCAA Tournament in each of his four seasons. He was
a first team all-league selection as a senior and also earned Second
Team Academic All-America accolades that season. He tied school
and league records with four goals in one game versus Loyola Oct.
23, 2005. Following in his brothers’ footsteps was almost a given at
the time, but Neil still had to choose where he was going to play.
“People definitely started to assume that I would attend UWM, but
it takes more than being the younger brother of very good soccer
PANTHERS

players to be able to play at such a great program,” Neil said. “I was
grateful that coach (Louis) Bennett and coach (Stan) Anderson
wanted me to be part of the team. They always said that we were all
different types of players. We shared some qualities but our games
were all different. I was just
happy that I was able to
contribute to the team.”
At this point in the timeline, Neil was able to take
advantage of the situation
he was walking into. College soccer is a new experience for any player, and
even the great ones have a
tough time making the initial transition.
Neil led the team in goals and points as a senior and earned numerous awards on and off the playing field – including being honored
as the UWM Athlete of the Year. He joined the ranks of the professional world as well. After getting drafted by the Milwaukee Wave,
he signed with the Rochester Raging Rhinos of the USL. He played
last season for the Portland Timbers. He credits his time at UWM
for the help it gave him professionally.
“The program was always run very professionally, so it was an easy
transition,” Neil said. “I learned a lot at UWM - how to properly
prepare yourself for games, training sessions, etc. My soccer intelligence greatly improved and I learned about mental toughness and
determination. The high level of play showed me how to compete at
a high level each day and training. And the competition for a spot in
the starting line up has been invaluable to my soccer career.”
After 63 wins, 10 ties and just 17 losses in his Panther career, Neil
has plenty of great memories.
“I’ll always remember UWM by my teammates and the coaches,” he
said. “We were all very close. It felt like one big family. And I suppose the irony is that I did have my family there with me to experience these things together.”
For the fifth part of this story, Zeke, it would have been easy to just
follow suit and head to UWM, but there was still quite a decisionmaking process. The school he was going to play at needed to meet
his list of requirements. Milwaukee met all of those on the list.
“With my brothers already gone through, or still attending, I had
been going to games for pretty much as long as I could remember
and already had a close connection with UWM,” Zeke said. “Secondly, the team was a Top-25 team, had gone to the NCAA Tourna2008
MILWAUKEE
ment and was a top program in the region as well as the country.
I was able to see through my brothers experiences the ability and
care the coaching staff had in developing players for the professional level and that was a major reason for choosing UWM. Also,
add in that it was about a half hour from where I grew up, and those
were the factors.”
Following such a line of success can be tough to stand up to, but
not so for Zeke. He made a name for himself immediately, stepping
in as a starter as a freshman. He became a mainstay on the field for
UWM, starting 60 of the final 62 games of his career and appearing
in all 84 games that Milwaukee played while he was in the program.
He grew stronger as a player each season, topping it off with first
team all-league honors as a senior after he led the team in goals,
assists, points, shots and shots on goal.
“The prior expectations didn’t affect me all that much,” Zeke said. “I
was recruited like an individual and treated like an individual both
by coaches and players. Once you are on the field all that matters is
your performance. If I didn’t perform well, I didn’t play. And when
you are on the field, you’re just another player. Certain personality
traits, such as hard-working, determined and a winning attitude among others - I feel are consistent among all of us. Knowing I was
a Dombrowski, people expected to see those traits out of me.”
Zeke was the final Dombrowski to play for UWM last fall, marking
the final season of a run that lasted from 1997 through 2007 where
at least one was on the field. The success has been impressive and
not lost on anyone.
“It helps to feed your drive,”
he said. “My brothers’ success has been useful in
many ways. For example,
seeing your brothers win
the Horizon League and
win NCAA games and then
go on to play professionally, you want to achieve
those for yourself. With
their success it laid out a
path that I could follow to
help achieve my goals and
be successful. I saw what
they did and applied some
of their approaches and
some of my own to achieve
what I have.”
The backbone of the success has been the parents, Mark and Judy
Dombrowski of West Allis. Mark has coached his sons for years,
going back to the day he signed up Scott and Chad for club ball
nearly 20 years ago.
“I still do club coaching – a small club that a number of boys have
been a part of – Parkland Soccer Club,” Mark said. “The oldest two
were not in that, it was just getting started. Tighe, Neil and Zeke all
grew up in the club playing. All of the boys spent time playing for
me somewhere.”

“I was familiar with the
style of play since I’d been
watching them play for
years,” Neil said. “I’m sure
it also helped that the guys
were friends with my brothers, so I guess they kind of knew what to
expect from me a little as far as not only my soccer ability but also
my personality.”

All five then went on to play at West Allis Hale and the pride the
situation gives the family is remarkable.
“We are very proud of all of them,” Mark said. “From Scott all the way
through Zeke, they have all had different roads to UWM and different experiences at UWM. I was no less proud when Zeke was there
then when the first (Scott) was there – and everyone in between.”
One of the things that helped the process along was the relationship that the family developed with the coaching staff. Former head
coach Louis Bennett was at Milwaukee from 1996 through 2005,
giving the program continuity in that position that is not always
there at this level.
A Decade of Dombrowski’s
“It was easy on my part because I knew we could trust the coaches,” Mark said. “They were good people and they were true to their
word as for what they thought of the boys talent-wise and scholarship-wise. We knew they were good to their word so it made it easy
as a parent to not discourage them from going that direction.”
Ten years of having a son on the soccer team meant plenty of hours
spent watching games – whether it was in the friendly confines of
Engelmann Field or on the road again for yet another road trip to
follow the team.
“It was a rare home game that we missed,” Mark said. “We went to
the majority of the games that were drivable in a reasonable amount
of time. Some times it was piling everyone in for the weekend and
heading to Butler. It would depend if their siblings were playing – we
did the best we could to block out Fridays through Sundays in the
fall so we could attend games. Six, eight or 10-hour drives, we did it
them all. My wife and I were usually at home games, as well as their
siblings. There are definitely a couple of corners of the fence around
Engelmann that our family has been leaning on for 10 years.”
There have been numerous pairs of brothers or sisters to play a
sport at the NCAA Division I level – plenty of other examples exist
even at UWM. But to have the story line reach five student-athletes
is a unique and special situation.
“It is unique and there is a great level of pride with it,” Mark said.
“Scott set a good example when he started playing and decided he
wanted to play division one soccer. He had a great work ethic. And,
even though it was collegiate sports, he had a great deal of professionalism to the way he learned how to play the game and advance
himself through it, getting into the starting line-up, playing a lot
and taking care of the school part of it as well. They all learned a
little bit from that, but they still had to find their own motivation.
I tell people very often that if you are doing it for the scholarship
money, you are better off hours-wise to get a part-time job and do
it that way. Along with the academics, there are numerous hours
of practice and the travel – which just makes your school work so
much tougher having to do it in distracting settings. It’s unique in
the fact that they all have been able to find that attitude and work
their way through it.”
“It is unusual that they all followed to the same spot,” Mark said. “A
lot of that had to do with the coaching staff – trusting and liking
them. Each of them went there for their own reasons. Of course it
was pretty easy when you get to Zeke’s case and having been on the
sidelines watching his brothers play for six, seven years. You have an
ingrained loyalty to the program and can see yourself there pretty
easily. They all handled it differently – we never really pushed them
to go that way. We liked the program, we enjoyed the people, but we
still let them make their own decisions. They got a little stuff from
their brothers, but even the brothers let the others make their own
minds up. I think in each of their cases there was a different thought
pattern as to why they did it, but it just worked out that way that
they did go time after time.”
After 10 years of walking the sidelines at Engelmann Field, if the
family comes out this season, it will be for support of the team in
general – not to yell and scream for a son playing on the field.
That is where the story takes yet another interesting turn – Mark
and Judy have three more children, including two more sons. Of
course, they all play soccer.
“Quinn is an eighth-grader playing U-14 and he is the next oldest,”
Mark said. “Cade is a 10-year old playing U-11 and then their sister
is an eight-year old playing U-9. When you grow up standing on the
sidelines, it just gets ingrained in you by being there. They learn by
seeing, which is a benefit for us. They don’t grow up watching it on
TV, so it’s an advantage that my kids have had that their brothers
were players and they learned things that you do not learn unless
you are there.”
Of course, the question has to be asked – will they follow in the
Dombrowski tradition?
“My son Cade, he’s 10, and he just thinks it’s a natural progression
in soccer to go on and play for the Panthers in college and then you
go on to play pro after that,” Mark said. “That is the only thing he
has ever seen and expects you should do. For him, it’s just a given.
The younger ones are playing and we will see how they develop as
they go down the line.”
All that can be said for now is check back in four years and see who
is leaning on that familiar fence at Engelmann Field.
The Dombrowski family might just be adding to the amazing story
it started over a decade ago.
The other remarkable thing about it is that each continued to
choose Milwaukee as where they were going to play despite each
going through a recruiting process of their own. It was never a given
that each would pick UWM, it just worked out that way.

Milwaukee: A Genuine American City
One of the many highlights of downtown Milwaukee is the scenic River Walk,
which extends from the north end of downtown through the Third Ward.
Milwaukee, The Genuine American City,
is steeped in tradition and history, alive in
growth and development. From the sparkling clean water of Lake Michigan, to
the rich heritage of our ethnic neighborhoods, Milwaukee invites you to discover
its unique, diverse community.
Heralded as “The City of Festivals,” Milwaukee hosts more than 15 annual festivals, including the world’s largest music
festival, Summerfest, and over a dozen
ethnic festivals all held along Milwaukee’s
spectacular lakefront.
The RiverWalk, which meanders through
the heart of downtown, recently received a
$13 million facelift, and development continues to the north and south.
Fine food, cultural venues, eclectic shops,
exciting nightlife and a wide array of distinctive sports bars are located along
the RiverWalk. Also prevalent along the
RiverWalk are many brewpubs and microbreweries. Gondolas and water taxies
frequently travel Milwaukee’s scenic RiverWalk area.
The Historic Third Ward is quickly becoming the “off-Broadway” of Milwaukee’s
arts scene. It is home to the new Broadway Theatre Center as well as another,
smaller, experimental theatre. In addition,

Carlos Santiago
Chancellor
Carlos E. Santiago is beginning his fifth academic year as the
Chancellor of the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee.
Santiago is UWM’s seventh Chancellor. In this position, he is the
chief administrative officer of the university and a partner with a
great number of constituents on and off campus.
Chancellor Santiago also holds the academic rank of Professor of
Economics at UWM. As a labor economist, he has regional expertise in the Caribbean and Central America, with special emphasis
on Puerto Rico.
The Chancellor
Cooperation and collaboration to strengthen UW-Milwaukee’s
research portfolio, academic excellence and diversity have been
the highest priorities of Chancellor Santiago since his arrival on
July 1, 2004. Among the primary results that UWM has achieved
during his tenure:
• Securing a historic reinvestment by the State of Wisconsin in the
university’s and Southeastern Wisconsin’s future, especially in the
targeted areas of advanced automation, biomedical engineering,
health care and freshwater science.
With the University at Albany, State University of New York,
where he held the position of Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs, Santiago was a member of its National Collegiate
Athletic Association Certification Steering Committee, worked
closely with the athletics department on academics and admissions-related issues, and was involved with the New York Giants
annual National Football League summer training camp held at
the University at Albany.
“Universities must focus on creating the scholar-athlete,” Chancellor Santiago said. “Winning is nice, but first and foremost you
must focus on the academics. UWM’s consistent performance -in both winning championships and placing leading numbers of
students on the Horizon League’s Academic Honor Roll -- demonstrates our commitment to both of these objectives.”
Dr. Santiago is the author or co-author of five books focusing on
labor and economic development issues, with the latest being
“Puerto Ricans in the United States: A Contemporary Portrait,”
co-authored with Edna Acosta-Belén. He has co-edited another

ambitious fund-raising effort in university history.
Dr. Santiago’s wife, Azara Santiago-Rivera, is also part of the faculty at UWM. She is an associate professor of educational psychology in the School of Education.
• Developing Access to Success, the campus blueprint to enhance
access to higher education while promoting greater success for all
students.
Chancellor Santiago has a Ph.D. in economics from Cornell University (‘82) and M.A. degrees in economics from Cornell University (‘79) and the University of Puerto Rico (‘75).
• Initiating a master planning process to create a template for regional growth away from the university’s extremely compressed
primary campus.
• Creating the UWM Research Foundation to support research
and innovation, and the UWM Real Estate Foundation to partner
with the public and private sectors to develop and hold real estate
Like most other boys growing up in Puerto Rico, Dr. Santiago
played baseball year-round and aspired to follow national heroes
Roberto Clemente and Orlando Cepeda to Major League Baseball.
Dr. Santiago played third base throughout high school and earned
a place on his division’s all-star team. In recent years, his sporting
interests have included golf, tennis, downhill skiing, walking and
jogging. He also helped coach softball teams for his daughters.
Rita Cheng is the Provost and Vice Chancellor at UWM, a position she has held since
April 2005. Cheng came to UWM in 1988
and has subsequently served the university

Bud Haidet
Athletic Director
Athletics has been a way of life for UWM Director of Athletics
Bud Haidet, and Haidet is busy making success a way of life for
the UWM Athletics Department.
In fact, the department has experienced unprecedented success on
and off the playing surface under Haidet. In 2007-08, UWM won
the Horizon League’s Women’s All-Sports Trophy for the seventh
time while seeing teams in women’s soccer, women’s volleyball
and men’s indoor and outdoor track & field win league crowns.
The biggest highlight of the 2005-06 campaign came after the
Horizon League basketball season was completed. The Panther
men again made their mark in the NCAA Tournament, beating
Big 12 power Oklahoma before falling to eventual national champion Florida. At the same time, the Panther women were battling
with Michigan State in the NCAA Tournament, only to fall in the
contest. Those basketball accomplishments came on the heels of
a 2005 postseason run that saw the Panther men advance to the
Sweet 16 and garner national recognition.
Basketball is far from the only sport where UWM has experienced tremendous success. In fact, both the men’s and women’s
soccer teams advanced to the second round of the NCAA Tournament in 2005. The men knocked off Bradley before falling in
overtime to national runner-up New Mexico, while the women
beat Purdue before falling to Marquette on a last-second goal.
The success at UWM actually started long ago. UWM finished
second in the McCafferty Trophy standings during the 1997-98
school year and during the 1999-2000 school year. In fact, following the 1999-2000 season, UWM finished just one point out
of first place and won the MCC men’s all-sports championship.
The Panthers then won the league’s all-sports trophy for the first
time after the 2000-01 season, and then won it again after the
2003-04 campaign.
Many of UWM’s teams have also gained national recognition under Haidet. The great success of the men’s basketball team also
includes an NCAA berth in 2003 and a National Invitation Tournament appearance in 2004. The men’s soccer team has qualified
for five of the last six NCAA Tournaments and has been ranked
2008
MILWAUKEE
as high as eighth in the nation. The women’s volleyball team has
qualified for six of the last nine NCAA Tournaments. The women’s basketball team also made the NCAA Tournament in 2001
and 2006, the women’s soccer team has been in the tournament
four out of the last six years and the baseball team has also been
a regular in the NCAA Tournament.
In the classroom, 78 UWM student-athletes were named to the
Horizon Academic Honor Roll in June, giving UWM the highest
number per sport offered in the league. Numerous Panthers have
also won league and national academic awards, including three
student-athletes earning Academic All-America honors this past
school year. And, the current cumulative grade point average of
all student-athletes is above 3.0.
Haidet has also directed an upgrade in facilities for all of UWM
athletics. The recently-completed Klotsche Center renovation the Pavilion - has vastly improved the office and training space
for the athletic department and its student-athletes. Haidet has
also led the extremely successful move by the men’s basketball
team to the U.S. Cellular Arena in downtown Milwaukee and
shown the way for improvements at Henry Aaron Field and Engelmann Field, which had lights installed for play in 2006.
Over Haidet’s tenure, athletics at UWM has moved from NAIA
Division II to NCAA Division I status, and from independent
status to membership in two athletic conferences. Haidet notes
that the strong commitment to athletics by the institution and
student association has greatly contributed to the rapid and successful growth of the program. He also feels past student-athletes, coaches and administrators helped set in motion the success UWM enjoys.
Haidet is active in numerous NCAA activities. He has completed Level I-III NCAA Athletics Management courses and was
a member of two NCAA Division I Peer Review Certification
teams and two NCAA committees. He was also recently the chair
of the Horizon League’s
Executive Council and
is active in all of the
league’s activities. Prior
to coming to UWM,
Haidet was an athletics
administrator at Miami
University in Oxford,
Ohio, where he earned
both his bachelor’s and
master’s degrees. He
was inducted into the
Miami Athletics Hall of
Fame in 2005. A former
captain in the Marine
Corps, Haidet enjoys
weight training, hiking
and fishing, and spending time with his wife,
Beth, stepson, Drew,
four children and 13
grandchildren.

This continued a long line of success for Milwaukee athletics under Haidet. In 2006-07, the Panthers’ women’s soccer team advanced to the second round of the NCAA Tournament for a second-straight year, while in 2005-06, UWM won the McCafferty
Trophy, the Horizon League’s All-Sports Trophy, for the fourth
time. UWM won 10 league titles and claimed a third-straight
regular season league title in men’s basketball. UWM has also

UWM Athletics: A Winning Way
In fact, UWM has consistently shown
it is the top athletic program in the
Horizon League. The school has won
the league’s McCafferty Trophy four
times in the last eight years, including a

2003-04 to 2005-06. UWM has also
won the women’s all-sports awards
seven times and the men’s all-sports
award three times.
The 2007-08 school year was another
banner one for Panther sports. In the
fall, UWM’s volleyball and women’s
soccer teams each claimed Horizon
League titles. Then, later in the year,
the men’s track and field team captured
both the indoor and outdoor league titles, bringing to 30 the number of team
track titles UWM has won since 1998.
Plus, the women’s track and field team
finished second in both the indoor and
outdoor seasons while the baseball
team advanced all the way to the title
game of the league tournament.
The 2006-07 school year was another
banner one for Panther sports, as
UWM teams won seven league titles
while a number of individuals also
claimed league crowns. The success
started in the fall as both the women’s
soccer and women’s volleyball teams
won the league regular season crown,
with the volleyball squad also capturing the league tourney title. Both teams
advanced to the NCAA Tournament,
where the women’s soccer team moved
to the second round for the secondstraight season.
UWM also continued its dominance
in track and field, winning indoor and
outdoor team titles on both the men’s

field teams. The facility now has air
conditioning and a new sound system,
as well as two new concession stands.
Plus, with it standing adjacent to the
new Pavilion, fans attending events
can park in the Pavilion’s new parking
garage and attend events without ever
stepping outside. The swimming and
diving teams have their own pool in
the Klotsche Center, located on the
lower level.

Meanwhile, UWM’s other recent facility improvements have come at the
soccer and baseball fields. On-campus
Engelmann Field, home of the Panther
soccer teams, is renowned to be one
of the best collegiate soccer facilities
in the country. Lights were added to
the field in 2006 and a new team room
has also been developed. The Panther
baseball team plays at Henry Aaron
Field, while occasionally getting the
chance to play at Miller Park. A new
scoreboard was added in 2008, while
extensive work on the field, fencing
and dugouts have been completed
over the last few years, with plans for
additional renovations on the table.
Athletics has a long history at UWM.
Some sports records date back to the
late 1800’s and UWM fielded a football
team until 1974. UWM has played on
all levels of NCAA competition, including stints as a Division II and Division
III institution along with its current run
in Division I. UWM athletics also spent
some years in NAIA competition.
The school’s athletic teams have also
competed in the Wisconsin state
school league for a number of years,
while competing in the Mid-Continent
Conference and Midwestern Collegiate Conference/Horizon League
since moving all of its varsity sports to
Division I in the fall of 1990.
UWM has 15 varsity athletic teams
and offers its prospective student-athletes aid in the form of athletic scholarships. Full and partial scholarships are
available in all 15 varsity sports. Full
scholarships include the cost of room
and board, in addition to tuition and
books. Scholarships are based on athletic ability and academic success.

UWM Athletics: A Winning Way
Center, opened in January of 2006
and now houses all of the athletics
offices, as well as new locker rooms,
team rooms, training rooms, weight
rooms and an academic center. The
facility, which also includes a tremendous amount of space for the general
student population, rates as one of the
best athletic office and workout facilities in the Horizon League.
UWM’s men’s basketball team has
played at the U.S. Cellular Arena in
downtown Milwaukee since the 2003
Horizon League Tournament. The
move downtown has been a successful
one, with attendance records set each

The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee’s newest on-campus building
is the Pavilion, which is the home to UWM Athletics.
The Pavilion officially opened its doors to the public in January of 2006
and the building was officially dedicated by Wisconsin Governor Jim
Doyle and UWM Chancellor Carlos Santiago on May 2.
Among the new athletics facilities in the building specifically are offices for coaches and staff, a student-athlete-only weight room, new
locker rooms for all teams and team rooms and lounges for men’s basketball, women’s basketball and women’s volleyball.
The recreation center has two expansive levels and houses four sport
courts surrounded by a suspended 1/8 mile track. The facility is utilized by individuals seeking open gym space, run and walk space on
the track, and the University’s intramural programs.
The Pavilion
The building also includes academic facilities for the College of Health
Sciences along with accommodations for the new Physical Therapy
and expanded Sports Medicine programs.
The $40 million project, which broke ground in June of 2003, came in
below budget due to a favorable bidding climate. Half of the funding
is coming from UWM parking fees, while the other half is from state
funds and student segregated fees. The athletic department has also

UWM’s general student population is also benefitting tremendously
from the new facility. A new fitness center has expansive rooms for
cardio workouts, as well as a weight room. The state-of-the-art area
is the most visible from the outside of the facility, as it features two
levels of windows.
Architects for the project were Venture Architects of Milwaukee, a
joint venture of Kahler Slater Architects and the Zimmerman Design
Group. They emphasize that placement and tinting of windows, called
“cool daylighting,” not only allows a wash of daylight inside while reducing energy needs.

Celebrating its 30th anniversary in 200809, the Horizon League continues to aspire
toward its goal of being one of the nation’s
leading athletics conferences while being
recognized as a leader in the development
of student-athletes as leaders and role
models.
The Horizon League membership features
ten public and private institutions that
have impressive academic reputations and
a storied tradition of broad-based athletic
programs. Current membership includes
Butler University, Cleveland State University, the University of Detroit Mercy, the
University of Illinois at Chicago, Loyola
University Chicago, Valparaiso University,
the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay,
the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee,
Wright State University and Youngstown
State University.
The Horizon League sponsors competition
in 19 sports – nine for men (baseball, basketball, cross country, golf, soccer, swimming and diving, indoor track and field,
outdoor track and field and tennis) and
ten for women (basketball, cross country,
golf, soccer, softball, swimming and diving,
indoor track and field, outdoor track and
field, tennis and volleyball). In all sports,
all teams participate in their respective
postseason League championships regardless of regular-season performance, allowing all student-athletes an opportunity to
qualify for NCAA championships. The
League receives automatic bids to NCAA
championships in baseball, men’s and
women’s basketball, men’s golf, men’s and
women’s soccer, softball, men’s and women’s tennis, and women’s volleyball.
The Horizon League is headquartered in
Indianapolis, the “Amateur Sports Capital of the World,” with offices in the Pan
American Plaza (201 S. Capitol Avenue),
located a block from Lucas Oil Stadium
and just minutes from Conseco Fieldhouse, the State Capitol Building, Victory
Field and the NCAA national office.

On June 4, 2001, the Horizon League unveiled its current name and ushered in a
new dynamic direction that has brought
the League closer to its stated goal of being one of the nation’s top ten conferences
with a focus on enhancing the student-athletes experience by upgrading the League’s
market and competitive positions.
ATHLETIC SUCCESS
In the past few years, the Horizon League
has enjoyed unprecedented success on the
national stage, highlighted by three Sweet
Sixteen appearances (Butler 2003, 2007;
Milwaukee 2005) and eight wins in the
NCAA Men’s Basketball Championship in
the past six seasons.
Women’s Basketball Championship. Butler’s Victoria Mitchell became the League’s
first NCAA individual champion when
she won the 3,000-meter steeplechase at
the 2005 NCAA Outdoor Track and Field
Championships and then finished fourth
at the 2005 NCAA Cross Country Championships.
ACADEMIC SUCCESS
Horizon League student-athletes also excel in the classroom as more than 500 have
been named to the Academic Honor Roll
each of the past seven semesters for carrying a grade-point average of 3.2 or better,
including more than 600 for the fall 2007
and spring 2008 semesters. Forty-eight
student-athletes were named to ESPN The
Magazine/CoSIDA Academic All-District
teams in 2007-08, while 14 earned Academic All-America honors, including a
pair of first-team selections.
DEMOGRAPHICS
Horizon League institutions boast a combined enrollment of more than 130,000
plus nearly a quarter-million living alumni
centered in the League’s Midwest footprint. League media markets include five
of the nation’s top 35 in Chicago, Detroit,
Cleveland, Indianapolis and Milwaukee,
covering more than ten million television
households and encompassing more than
nine percent of the nation’s television audience.
HORIZON LEAGUE NETWORK
The Horizon League is a recognized leader
in video streaming, through the Horizon
League Network (HLN), having produced
more than 800 free, live events in the past
three years, with plans to web cast more
than 400 during the 2008-09 academic year.
In addition to live games, HLN includes
highlight vignettes of all 19 League championships, weekly highlight videos during
the men’s and women’s basketball season
and other special programming covering
Horizon League institutions, coaches and
student-athletes.
In other sports, League teams have won at
least one game in their respective NCAA
Championships each of the last six seasons in men’s soccer (Milwaukee 2002-05,
UIC 2006-07), with UIC just one win away
from the College Cup in 2007. In softball,
League teams won a game in the national
tournament four straight years earlier in
the decade (UIC 2002, 2004; Wright State
2003; Green Bay 2005) while advancing
into the second round in women’s soccer three of the last four seasons (Detroit
2004, Milwaukee 2005-06). Green Bay’s
women’s basketball team added to that
résumé with a victory in the 2007 NCAA
McCAFFERTY TROPHY
The Horizon League annually awards the
McCafferty Trophy in recognition of its
all-sports champion in honor of its first
commissioner, James J. McCafferty. Cleveland State won its first McCafferty Trophy
in school history following the 2007-08
academic year. The Vikings also captured
their first Men’s All-Sports Award, while
Milwaukee claimed the women’s honor for
the third straight year and seventh time
in the past eight years. As an indication
of the League’s competitive balance, eight
of its ten schools won at least one team
championship last year.
PANTHERS
Soccer
Horizon League
The Horizon League’s primary focus is on
adding value to the educational experience
through its four platforms of athletic performance, academic achievement, community outreach, and personal responsibility
and accountability. It is the League’s belief that athletics is a powerful and visible
resource tool that can be used to enhance
student-athletes’ collegiate experience.
The Horizon League’s goals are to enhance
the holistic university experience for the
student-athlete, to create an affiliation of
institutions with similar athletic goals, and
to adhere to the principals of integrity, diversity, excellence and growth.
HISTORY
Founded on June 16, 1979, as the Midwestern City Conference with six charter members, the League changed its name to the
Midwestern Collegiate Conference in 1985
and added women’s sports for the 1986-87
academic year. Charter members of the
conference included current members Butler and Loyola as well as the University of
Evansville, Oklahoma City University, Oral
Roberts University and Xavier University.
Among other current members, Detroit
joined in 1980, and Cleveland State, UIC,
Green Bay, Milwaukee and Wright State
came aboard in 1994 in the largest nonmerger conference expansion in history,
with Youngstown State joining in 2001 and
Valparaiso in 2007.

Like most teams, Milwaukee has utilized the
homefield advantage to the best of its abilities.
Engelmann Field has played a large role in that,
as UWM has gone 195-69-20 (.722) all-time on
the storied field. Over the last six seasons, the
Panthers have posted a 42-10-5 (.781) on campus, including a perfect 12-0 mark in 2002 and
10-1 campaigns in 2001 and 2004. In addition
to regular season matches, a number of tournament matches have been played at the corner of
Hartford and Cramer.
PANTHER INVITATIONAL
The longest-running in-season tournament in
NCAA Division I men’s soccer, the Panther Invitational enters its 35th year in 2008. UWM has
hosted the event annually since the program’s
inception in 1973, save for the 1990 season. Engelmann Field has played home to the event 29
times, including 1973-80 and all but one year
since 1985.
UWM boasts a 47-19-2 (.706) all-time record in
its tournament, including 39-17-2 (.690) at Engelmann Field. Milwaukee has also posted perfect Panther Invite records 18 times, including
15 times at Engelmann.

HORIZON LEAGUE TOURNAMENT
Engelmann Field has been the on-campus home
of UWM Soccer since 1973, giving the Panthers
a unique home advantage. It’s this advantage
Milwaukee has been able to utilize in the postseason in recent years
From 2000 to 2006, under the format that the
Horizon League used during that time, Engelmann Field played host to a quarterfinal match
each year and the semifinals and championship game of the league tournament from 2002
to 2004. With the advantage of playing on its
home turf, UWM has posted a 15-2 record in
that time. Its two losses came in the Horizon
League Championship in 2001 and when it
was upset in the first round in 2006.
Tournament success has not been limited to
the last decade. In total, Milwaukee has hosted
a league tournament six times, winning five
championships and advancing to the title
game seven times. Including their quarterfinal
match in 2000, the Panthers are 18-3-0 (.857) at
home in league tournaments. Titles have come
in 1990 (Big Central Soccer Conference) and
2001-05 (Horizon League), while Engelmann
also hosted the 1997 and 2001 tournaments.
