Olson also developed the school’s first-ever alumni meet, performed on- and off-campus recruiting, and produced fundraising efforts for the program.

Scott Olson is in his fifth year as an assistant head coach for the Southern Illinois swimming and diving program. He was promoted to associate head coach before the 2012-13 season.

Olson was the interim head coach of the Tennessee women’s program in 2005 after serving two years as a graduate assistant. He maintained academic responsibility for the athletes and acted as a consultant with the athletic staff in hiring a head coach.

Olson serves as the primary swimming coach for sprinters and some middistance swimmers, and he has directly guided three swimmers to AllConference recognition in just three seasons. Two of those swimmers won a combined four events at the conference championships. In just the last two seasons, he has guided seven swimmers to a combined 16 appearances in A Finals appearances (top-eight finishes) at the conference championships.

As a graduate assistant at Tennessee from 2003-05, Olson performed stroke analysis using DART FISH, performed on-campus recruiting and arranged travel for the team. He produced a successful marketing campaign for home meets that resulted in attendance being doubled and built alumni relations. Before his graduate assistantship, Olson served as a volunteer coach for the Lady Vols swimming and diving team. As a volunteer, Olson helped guide the 100-yard backstroke swim to a fifth-place finish at the NCAA Championships.

Olson guided Justin Wolfe to a berth in the 2012 Olympic Trials, which was the first Olympic Trials berth for an SIU swimmer in 12 years. At Southern, Olson also serves as the recruiting coordinator and developed Southern’s dryland training program. His swimmers have accounted for eight Division I B Cut times and nine NCAA top-40 times. He guided the 201112 200-yard freestyle relay team to the MAC Championship record and a conference title. Also in 2011-12, Olson guided Juan Arbelaez to a MAC championship in the 50-yard freestyle and Wolfe to the conference title in the 100-yard butterfly. Arbelaez was the first swimmer in SIU history to break 20 seconds in the 50 freestyle and Wolfe set a MAC Championship record in the 100 fly. In 2010-11, Olson guided Wolfe to a sweep in the 100- and 200-yard butterfly at the MAC Championships. Since Olson arrived in Carbondale, Southern has been ranked as high as No. 8 in the CollegeSwimming.com rankings among mid-major schools, and the team finished eighth at the USA Swimming National Championships in the winter of 2010? Olson’s swimmers have broken three school records that were more than 20 years old.

Olson has also served as head swimming coach for the Barracuda Swim Club and Janesville YMCA. With the Barracuda Swim Club from 1998-2002, Olson managed three program sites that included five pools and over 120 swimmers. He trained swimmers at the sectional, junior national, and senior national levels. He was responsible for hiring, training and supervising all coaches. At the Janeville YMCA in Janesville, Wis., Olson grew the swimming team from four total members to 65 members in just his first six months on the job. The boys team won the district title under Olson and placed second at the YMCA Senior State Championships. The team qualified for the YMCA Spring Nationals for the first time in eight years. As a swimmer at North Dakota, Olson was an All-American swimmer and team captain. He earned his bachelor’s degree from UND in 1996 and master’s from Tennessee in 2005. Both degrees were in recreation administration. Olson resides in Carbondale with his wife, Melissa O’Dell-Olson.

2013-14 Swimming and Diving Media Guide The Missouri Valley Conference has demonstrated throughout history that it finds the strength, resources, competitive determination and leadership to rise to even higher levels when confronted with change or significant challenges. In 2012-13, the winds of change that have dramatically affected Division I conference realignment in recent years finally touched The Valley. For the first time since 1996, the MVC will experience the addition and departure of a member institution. The Valley formally welcomed Loyola University Chicago into the membership on July 1, 2013. Loyola is the 33rd institution to enter the Missouri Valley Conference and the first-ever member university from the Chicago metropolitan area. In March 2013, Creighton University, an MVC member for nearly 60 years, had announced its departure from the MVC for the newly configured Big East Conference. If the Missouri Valley Conference has been anything over the past 106 seasons of athletic competition, it has been resilient. The Valley – which will experience its 107th season of athletics competition in 2013-14 -- has weathered many kinds of storms, including changes in its membership. In 1928, six institutions (Iowa State, Kansas, Kansas State, Nebraska, Missouri and Oklahoma) left the league to form the Big Six Conference. Another major exodus from the MVC took place in the 1970s when four institutions departed over a three-year period. Each time there has been a setback or a major change in membership, the Conference has retooled and reinvented itself. The nation’s second-oldest NCAA Division I conference continues to be a leader in college athletics and is one of the nation’s most progressive conferences. League members have worked together to focus on common goals and objectives, putting a high value on league harmony while continuing to invest in athletic programs to compete at the highest level. The Valley brand remains very strong, both regionally and nationally, and the great athletic tradition of The Valley remains a compelling force in recruiting studentathletes and in marketing all the MVC programs. Men’s basketball continues to be the engine that drives Valley athletic programs. In 2013, Wichita State reached the Final Four, marking the first time since 1979 (Indiana State) that an MVC team had advanced that far (a league member has now been to the Final Four 17 times.) The league has had four different Sweet 16 teams since 2006, and The Valley is the only non-BCS league with more than two different Sweet 16 teams in that span. Wichita State (4) and Creighton (21) ended the season ranked in the USA Today Coaches poll, marking the third time in the past eight seasons that two league members achieved a Top-25 ranking in a season-ending poll. Six MVC schools represented the league in post-season play, and the league combined for a record-setting 13 post-season victories in 2013. The MVC Men’s Basketball Championship – affectionately known as Arch Madness - continues to be a spectacular showcase for the league, and the MVC has extended the tournament agreement with the Scottrade Center that will keep Arch Madness in St. Louis through at least 2015. During the 2011 MVC Championship, the league surpassed 1 million in total attendance for the event, now in its 24th year. While the success of men’s basketball has received the greatest attention, the overall performance of league teams in virtually every sport continues to raise the national profile of the conference. In volleyball, Creighton, UNI and Wichita State represented the league in the NCAA Tournament. It marked the fifth time in league history that three volleyball teams were invited to the Dance (also in 2011, 2010, 2008 and 2007). The Valley earned three first-round NCAA Volleyball Tournament wins for the first time in MVC history, while Wichita State advanced to its first-ever Sweet 16 after knocking off Arkansas and Kansas in its historic run. In baseball, Illinois State won its first-ever outright Missouri Valley Conference regular-season title, tallying

one more league win than Wichita State. Four teams passed the 30-win threshold, marking the seventhstraight season in which at least four MVC teams have reached 30 wins. Bradley’s Mike Tauchman became the first player from a last place team to win MVC Player of the Year after leading the nation in hitting (.425). In track & field, league student-athletes continue to be dominant nationally in the sport. Indiana State’s Felicia Johnson won an individual weight throw title at the NCAA Indoor Championships, and the MVC has now produced 14 national champions in the sport in the past seven years. Indiana State, notably, swept both the men’s and women’s MVC outdoor titles, marking the first time a school had won in both genders at the league outdoor meet since 2008. In 2010, The Valley took a m aj or s t e p t ow ard ensuring current revenues in television media and tournament sponsorship sales would be guaranteed in future years when it announced a 10-ye ar partnership with Learfield Sports. The Jefferson City, Missouri-based company now has the exclusive sales and marketing rights to MVC assets that include championships and television advertising. During the tenure of Doug Elgin, The Valley’s ninth and longest-tenured commissioner, The Valley has been aggressive in hosting NCAA events in St. Louis. From 1998-2010, the MVC served as host for a staggering nine NCAA tournament events in that 13-year period, which has made St. Louis one of the most frequent stops on the NCAA Tournament trail. The Valley hosted Women’s Final Fours in 2001 and 2009 and the Men’s Final Four in 2005. This year, The Valley will host an NCAA secondand third-round men’s basketball event at Scottrade Center in St. Louis. Last year, the league hosted an NCAA second- and third-round men’s basketball event in Kansas City and previously assisted with preliminary round men’s events in both 2008 and 2012 in Omaha. The seeds for the creation of the conference were planted by eight administrators representing five institutions, who met at the Midland Hotel in Kansas City, Mo., on Jan. 12, 1907. The five schools which formed the Missouri Valley Intercollegiate Athletic Association were Washington University of St. Louis, and the state universities of Iowa, Kansas, Missouri and Nebraska. Two months after the initial meeting, two more schools -- Drake University and Iowa State College -- were admitted. In the fall of 1907, basketball became the first competitive sport. Today, the Missouri Valley Conference sponsors the following sports: baseball, men’s and women’s basketball, men’s and women’s cross country and track & field (indoor and outdoor), men’s and women’s golf, men’s and women’s soccer, softball, women’s swimming and diving, men’s and women’s tennis, and women’s volleyball. While The Valley no longer sponsors football (it did from 1907-85), six league members compete in football at the FCS (Football Championship Subdivision) level as Illinois State, Indiana State, Missouri State, UNI and Southern Illinois play in the 10-member Missouri Valley Football Conference (with North Dakota State, South Dakota, South Dakota State, Western Illinois and Youngstown State). That league competed as the Gateway Conference from 1985-2007. Drake plays non-scholarship football in the Pioneer Football League. This season, the league will conduct its 103rd outdoor track and field championship, its 96th tennis championship, its 60th baseball tournament, and its 76th golf championship for the men. Those programs, plus other current sponsored sports of cross country (55 years), indoor track (63), men’s soccer (23), women’s soccer (17), and swimming and diving (20), have helped solidify The Valley as one of the nation’s most respected conferences.

Athletic accomplishments include four NCAA national basketball championships, 17 trips to the NCAA Final Four, a 1989 national baseball championship and 19 College World Series qualifiers. The league owns a total of 30 post-season national team championships, including Wichita State’s men’s basketball NIT title in 2011. In 2001, Missouri State added to The Valley women’s accomplishments, as the Lady Bears advanced to the Women’s Basketball Final Four in St. Louis. Creighton (2004) and Missouri State (2005) have claimed national championships (WNIT) in women’s basketball. MSU also has a 1992 NCAA Women’s Final Four appearance, and Creighton (2003), Drake (1999) and Illinois State (2009) have made semifinal trips to the WNIT postseason tournament. Indeed, the inclusion of women’s programs under The Valley banner has provided a boost. The Gateway Collegiate Athletic Conference -which began in 1982 -merged with The Missouri Valley Conference and was unveiled as part of the new conference on July 1, 1992. While the inclusion of women’s sports under a comprehensive athletic umbrella is a recent development in the league’s storied history, over the years, Valley student-athletes and coaches have become household names during the league’s illustrious history, both during their collegiate careers and, for some, professional careers. In fact, The Valley began honoring that tradition in the summer of 1997, when the conference began its athletics Hall of Fame. Hersey Hawkins of Bradley, Larry Bird of Indiana State, Wes Unseld of Louisville, Coach Henry Iba of Oklahoma State, Dave Stallworth of Wichita State, Ed Macauley of Saint Louis, and Oscar Robertson of Cincinnati were members of the initial induction class. Currently, nearly 80 former players, coaches and alums dot the league’s Hall of Fame. Men’s basketball, perhaps, has the league’s most storied tradition, boasting the likes of Hall of Famers Bird and Robertson as former players, but The Valley has also produced national-caliber student-athletes in its other sponsored sports. In 2001, Missouri State’s Jackie Stiles became the first Valley woman to earn the Honda-Broderick Cup, given to the nation’s top female collegiate student-athlete. In the sport of track and field, Indiana State’s Holli Hyche captured seven national sprint titles in the early 1990s, Southern Illinois’ Darrin Plab won back-to-back NCAA outdoor high jump titles in 1991 and 1992, SIU’s Brittany Riley became the World record holder in the weight throw in 2007, and Kylie Hutson of Indiana State swept both the indoor and outdoor pole vault titles in 2009 and in 2010. Southern Illinois’ Jeneva McCall (three NCAA individual championships) and Illinois State’s Tim Glover (backto-back javelin championships in 2011 and 2012) and Indiana State’s Felisha Johnson (indoor weight throw in 2011 and 2013) are the most recent multi-year NCAA champions in the league’s highly decorated history in track & field. In the fall of 1997, Creighton’s Johnny Torres was named the collegiate male soccer player of the year for a second-straight year, while SMU’s Luchi Gonzalez (2001) and Tulsa’s Ryan Pore (2004) have also earned a National Player of the Year honor in men’s soccer. Meanwhile, league member Wichita State has produced three national collegiate players of the year in baseball, including Joe Carter (1981), Phil Stephenson (1982) and Darren Dreifort (1993). League members include Bradley, Drake, Evansville, Illinois State, Indiana State, Loyola Chicago, Missouri State, Northern Iowa, Southern Illinois, and Wichita State. Central Arkansas and Southern Illinois Edwardsville are affiliate members in men’s soccer, and Dallas Baptist is an affiliate member for baseball.

2013-14 Swimming and Diving Media Guide Since its inception in 1946, the Mid-American Conference has progressively grown and developed into one of the most aggressive Division I conferences in the country. One of only 11 football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) conferences, the MAC named Dr. Jon A. Steinbrecher as its eighth commissioner in the 65-year history of the league in March of 2009. Steinbrecher came to the MAC after serving six years as the commissioner of the Ohio Valley Conference. The league has grown its commitment to championships by expanding to six its number of neutral site post season events – football (Detroit’s Ford Field), volleyball (SPIRE Academy, Geneva, Ohio), men’s and women’s basketball (Cleveland’s Quicken Loans Arena), softball (Akron’s Firestone Stadium) and baseball (Avon, Ohio All Pro Freight Stadium). In 2010, four MAC programs received bowl invitations and it marked the first time in conference history that the MAC had four or more teams receive bowl invitations in a three-year consecutive span. In addition, the MAC has sent four or more teams to bowl games in five of the last seven years. The four MAC programs that played in bowl games were: Miami (GoDaddy.com Bowl), Northern Illinois (uDrove Humanitarian Bowl), Toledo (Little Caesars Pizza Bowl) and Ohio (R+L Carriers New Orleans Bowl). The MAC record for bowl appearances is five, which happened in consecutive years (2008, 2009) and only three times (2004, 2008, 2009) in conference history. The 2010 season also witnessed Miami win the 2010 Marathon MAC Championship and record the best turnaround in college football with an eight win improvement over the previous season (1-11 in 2009). Northern Illinois entered the Marathon MAC Football Championship ranked No. 23 in the USA Today Coaches Poll and No. 24 in the Associated Press Poll. Two more MAC teams defeated Big Ten opponents during the regular season as Northern Illinois defeated Minnesota, 34-23 in Minneapolis, while Toledo rolled to a 31-20 win at Purdue in West Lafayette, Ind. For the first time in its 65-year history, the MAC will have eight bowl relationships--three primary and five secondary. The three primary agreements are with the Little Caesar’s Pizza Bowl (Detroit, Mich.), GoDaddy. com Bowl (Mobile, Ala.) and uDrove Humanitarian Bowl (Boise, Ida.). In addition, the MAC has secured secondary agreements with the BBVA Compass Bowl (2011-2013), the New Mexico Bowl (2011-2013), the Beef O’Brady’s St. Petersburg Bowl (2011-13), the Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl (2011) and the TicketCity Bowl (2012). In its partnership with ESPN, the MAC is in the third year of its eight-year rights agreement (through 20162017 academic years) for football, as well as men’s and women’s basketball. The deal is the most extensive in the 65-year history of the conference. The agreement calls for a minimum of 25 events annually to be produced and aired on an ESPN platform including the men’s and women’s basketball championships, a regular-season MAC presence on ESPN, the Marathon MAC Football Championship and a minimum of 11 regular-season football games. In 2010, the University of Akron Men’s Soccer team won its first National Championship by defeating Louisville, 1-0, in the NCAA College Cup. Akron junior defender Kofi Sarkodie was named Player of the Year by Soccer America, and Sarkodie was joined by senior midfielder Anthony Ampaipitakwong and junior striker Darlington Nagbe on Soccer America’s MVP First Team, as Akron’s three honorees were the most by any school. In addition, Nagbe was presented the Hermann Trophy, the most prestigious honor in intercollegiate soccer, as it marked the second consecutive year for a member of the Akron program to be honored with the Hermann Trophy (Teal Bunbury, 2009). History was made in the 2011 Major League Soccer Super Draft as seven members of the Akron’s National Championship Men’s Soccer Team were drafted, including five of the first eight selections in the first round. This set an MLS draft record for the most first-round selections from a single school. In 2010-11 for men’s basketball, the MAC set a confer-

ence mark as six programs received invites to postseason tournaments. Akron won the MAC tournament as the No. 6 seed and played Notre Dame in the NCAA tournament. Kent State won the MAC regular season title and represented the conference in the NIT with impressive road wins at St. Mary’s and Fairfield. Buffalo, Ohio and Western Michigan were invited to the CollegeInsider.com tournament, while Miami received an invitation to the College Basketball Invitational.
