The Eagles have reached the NCAA Tournament five consecutive seasons and the players are making strides on the national scene. A number of players have competed in the US National Team program in the youth system. Most recently, senior Caroline Walden and alums Jenny Maurer and Kia McNeill were called in to train with the Under-23 Women’s National team in preparation for the before the 2008 Nordic Cup. McNeill, who is now with Kristianstad in Sweden, was an alternate for the U-23 team at the 2008 Nordic Cup. Gina DiMartino trained over the summer with the Under-20 women’s team and was named to the team for the 2008 FIFA U-20 women’s World Cup. Newton Campus Soccer Field The Boston College soccer field is nestled behind the Law School on the Newton Campus. The field opened in September of 1999 when the men’s team hosted Army for the first home game. The Eagles posted a 3-0 victory. The women’s first match at the Newton Campus Soccer Field was a 5-0 victory over Central Connecticut on September 15, 1999. The field was so well received it was honored by the Soccer Manager’s Association as the College Soccer Field of the Year in 1999. The Newton Campus Soccer Field has gone through its biggest renovation as Boston College converted the grass to Polytan Artificial Turf over the summer of 2008. Polytan surfaces are used at the World Cup Stadium in Stuttgart, Germany, Olympic Stadium in Munich, Football Academy FC Bayern, Stadium La Maladiere in Switzerland and Warsteiner Stadium (men’s World Cup, 2006). Along with the field, Boston College has added a 30 seat enclosed press box with internet access and an outdoor deck for filming. On October 3, 2003, the women’s team hosted the first night game on the Newton Campus Field. Nearly 2,000 people came out to watch the Eagles battle the Connecticut Huskies. BC fell in overtime, but it marked a new era for Boston College soccer. The Eagles first home ACC victory in the history of the program came on September 20, 2005 when the Eagles captured a 1-0 win over Duke. In the nine year history of the Newton Soccer Field, the Boston College women’s team is currently 69-15-6. The teams’ best record on home turf came in 2003 when the Eagles went 11-1. Last season Boston College went 9-1-3 with wins over No. 3 Virginia, No. 25 Wake Forest and Boston University. BC In 2008 the women’s team will host 10 games, including three contests under the lights. The Eagles will host a number of great matches this fall, including the home opener against Brown University on Friday, September 5 at 5 p.m. The Eagles will also host cross-town rival Harvard on Friday, September 19 at 4 p.m. The 2008 ACC schedule has the Eagles hosting Miami, Florida State, Maryland, Virginia Tech and Clemson. Attendance On October 13, 2005, No. 10 ranked Boston College hosted No. 3 ranked North Carolina in front of a record-breaking crowd of 2,200. It was the first time the two teams played since the early 1980’s. In 2007, the two teams battled again in front of 1,573 people. The two games vs. UNC are the largest regular season game crowds in the history of the BC women’s soccer program.

The newest of Boston College’s athletic facilities, the bubble can handle all facets of the soccer team’s off-season training regimen. The facility houses strength and conditioning workouts and scrimmages for the soccer team. Erected in December of 1998, the bubble cost approximately $2 million. The structure measures 360’ x 210’ and is 70’ tall, covering the entire football field and extending a few feet beyond the end zones and sidelines. The bubble usually takes four hours to inflate and is wired for electrical power. It is heated and can reach 72 degrees Fahrenheit, though it is usually kept at 55 degrees. Each year the bubble is erected at the end of November and stays inflated until the end of March.

It was the first institution of higher education to be founded in the city of Boston. Today, it is one of the foremost universities in the nation, with a coeducational enrollment of 14,500 undergraduate and graduate students. Boston College has drawn students from all 50 states and more than 85 countries. “Deeply rooted in its Catholic and Jesuit origins, Boston College offers an education that is distinctive in spirit and content, that is doubly rich with the best of human thought and with the profound insights of faith,” writes Reverend William P. Leahy, SJ, who assumed the presidency of Boston College in 1996. “We believe that Boston College provides a transforming experience for young men and women.” Boston College has grown not just in size, but also in stature and diversity. Today, it is ranked among the top 35 national universities by US News & World Report. Its Graduate School of Social Work is listed among the nation’s top 15, also by US News, while the graduate programs of its Lynch School of Education are among the top 20 and its Connell School of Nursing and Law School are among the top 30. In addition, its Carroll School of Management undergraduate program is listed among the nation’s top 15 by Business Week. Boston College is among the nation’s most selective universities, with more than 30,000 applications received for its 2,250-member Class of 2012, and is numbered among the top American private research universities. Its endowment of $1.7 billion is among the nation’s 40 largest. A continued expression of this philosophy, based on the Jesuit principle of cura personalis, or care for the individual, is the faculty’s dedication to teaching. BC faculty members have been honored for their teaching by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Education, while the University’s overall commitment to teaching has been ranked among the nation’s top 20, also by US News & World Report.

The University today remains focused on its mission of helping students to develop their minds and talents while providing them with the motivation and compassion to use those talents in the service of others. A Boston College education focuses not only on intellectual development, but also on personal, spiritual and physical development. Students are asked to use their abilities, education and acquired skills to help others in need, whether in Boston or Belize. Each year, more than 5,000 undergraduates give some 375,000 hours of community service in the Boston area, while more than 650 students trade vacation for service during Spring Break. Nearly 2,000 students take part in retreats and spiritual formation activities annually. Today, the Boston College motto “ever to excel” also extends to a broad array of extracurricular activities and opportunities ranging from sports to the arts. Athletics is integral to the University’s focus on the development of the whole person in body as well as in mind and spirit. BC offers 31 men’s and women’s varsity sports, all of which compete at the NCAA Division I level, and annually has one of the highest graduation rates in Division IA. BC offers a wide variety of resources that enrich intellectual and cultural life beyond the campus gates.

Most recently, the Boston College community has been engaged in a comprehensive assessment and planning effort that resulted in a 10-year Strategic Plan. This plan will build on Boston College’s strengths and accomplishments of the past and will focus additional resources on undergraduate liberal arts education and formation, as well as integrated science research and teaching. The University also intends to increasingly apply the strengths of its professional schools to resolving critical societal issues, and foster even more international links. In addition, Boston College intends to remain faithful to its Jesuit, Catholic heritage and to become the leading Catholic university and theological center in the world.

DeFilippo has made a significant impact on the program internally, in the Boston community, and from a national standpoint while molding it into one of the nation’s elite both on and off the playing field. He also led the program through one of the most significant periods in its history as it transitioned to full membership in the Atlantic Coast Conference. scoreboards and other improvements at Shea Field, renovations to Conte Forum, including a new sound system, floor and video boards, two new soccer fields on the Newton campus, new Field Turf for Alumni Stadium, and an air-inflated bubble to cover the stadium turf to provide an indoor practice facility for all sports during the winter months. the “Penguin of the Year” Award from Youngstown State University in 2003 and the Distinguished Alumni Award from Springfield College in 2001. In April of 2000, he was awarded the “I Migliori” plaque at the Pirandello Lyceum’s annual awards banquet, honoring outstanding achievements and exemplary lives of Italian-Americans. DeFilippo was instrumental in raising money to build the privately funded $27 million, 72,000-square-foot Yawkey Athletics Center, which houses the football program, the Office of Learning Resources for Student-Athletes, and a large function area for general University use, freeing up critically needed space in Conte Forum for women’s athletics and other Olympic sports teams. After football moved into the Yawkey Center, BC undertook a multi-million dollar renovation of Conte Forum to provide additional locker room and office space for many of BC’s 31 varsity sports. At Boston College, DeFilippo is responsible for the administration and management of a broadbased athletics program committed to the pursuit of excellence in both intercollegiate competition and academic achievement. The Boston College program is comprised of approximately 750 student-athletes participating in 31 men’s and women’s varsity sports, all of which compete at the NCAA Division I level, in addition to a wide variety of intramural, recreation and club sports. Boston College also is a member of the Atlantic Coast Conference and Hockey East. DeFilippo renamed the Athletics Association’s fundraising arm (formerly Blue Chips) in honor of longtime Athletics Director Bill Flynn. Alumni, parents and friends of Boston College Athletics contributed a record $21 million in 2008, a 10% increase from the previous year’s record and more than 200% of what was raised as recently as 2003. As both a top-level administrator and a former Division I football coach, DeFilippo brought to Boston College a wide range of experience on and off the field. From 1993-97, he served as director of athletics at Villanova University, where he was named to the NCAA Division I Management Council. At Villanova, his tenure included the 1997 Big East regular-season men’s basketball tournament title; 1994 NIT men’s basketball championship; two NCAA championships for women’s cross country, and a Rhodes Scholar, among others. In addition to the NCAA Division I Management Council, DeFilippo was named to the NCAA Nominating Committee, the NCAA Special Committee on Marketing, Promotions and Licensing and the executive board of the Philadelphia Sports congress. Anne and Gene DeFilippo cemented their commitment to Boston College by announcing their pledge of $100,000 to endow a scholarship. The scholarship will be awarded annually to a female student-athlete who demonstrates outstanding academic achievement and financial need. DeFilippo is credited with spearheading efforts to strengthen BC’s athletics program in a number of areas, including facilities, fundraising, staffing and academic support. Boston College student-athletes’ achievements in the classroom have become an immense source of pride for the University and its supporters. The Office of Learning Resources for Student-Athletes recently moved into a brand new home in the Yawkey Athletics Center. Under DeFilippo’s leadership, 379 BC student-athletes maintained a grade point average of 3.0 or better during the 2007-08 academic year, earning the Athletics Director’s Award for Academic Excellence. The football team won the 2004 American Football Coaches Association’s Academic Achievement Award with a 100% graduation rate and BC’s graduation rate for all student-athletes has consistently ranked in the nation’s top ten. Also under DeFilippo’s leadership, U.S. News and World Report honored Boston College as one of the top 20 athletics departments in the country. In athletics competition, DeFilippo has overseen some of the most successful seasons in Boston College Athletics history. During the 2007-08 season, the football team appeared in a school-record ninth consecutive bowl game and won its eighth straight. The men’s ice hockey team won its third national championship after advancing to the championship game for the third straight year and the Frozen Four for the eighth time in 11 seasons. The men’s soccer team captured both the ACC regular-season and tournament championships and entered the NCAA Men’s Soccer Tournament as the overall No. 1 seed. DeFilippo has restructured the athletics program and hired top-notch administrators. He initiated an impressive overhaul of BC’s athletics facilities that includes new football practice facilities, lighting, DeFilippo was named the 2000-01 Division I-A Northeast Region NACDA/Continental Airlines AD of the Year. He was honored at the annual NACDA convention in Salt Lake City in June 2001. He received DeFilippo is extremely active on the national scene. He is the past president of NACDA (National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics), the nation’s Division I-A Athletics Directors’ organization, and is a member of the Board of Directors of the National Football Foundation and College Football Hall of Fame. He is also a former representative to the NCAA Division I Management Council. His coaching experience includes three years as offensive backfield coach at Vanderbilt (198082), which included the 1982 Hall of Fame Bowl. From 1975-79, he was offensive coordinator at Youngstown State University, during which time the team won two consecutive Mid-Continent Conference championships, 1978-79. In 1973-74, he was graduate assistant football coach for the University of Tennessee, coaching in the 1973 Gator Bowl and 1974 Liberty Bowl. A 1973 graduate of Springfield College with a Bachelor of Science degree, DeFilippo earned three varsity letters as a quarterback in football during his undergraduate career. He received a master’s degree in educational administration from the University of Tennessee in 1974. DeFilippo and his wife, Anne, are the parents of three children - Christine, a guidance counselor at Beaver Country Day School; John, quarterbacks coach for the Oakland Raiders, and Mary, a 2007 graduate of Boston College who is a production assistant for Cramer Productions.
