For the first time in program hi story, the Toreros were ranked in the AVCA Top 20 Volleybal l Poll for the entire season, reaching a peak of 14 ( I0- I9-98). USD advanced to the second round of the CAA Tournament in Madison, Wisconsin last season, sweeping South Florida, before fa lling to the host sixth ranked Badgers. S :JC!e:J([2) :iCJ:Jl llJVC!:J:JlUR .Neall 9lu.N USD returns IO players, including four starters from the 1998 squad led by First Team All -America outside hitter, senior Petia Yanchulova (Sofia, Bulgaria). Yanchulova ranked second in all of Division I in kills per game (5.9) in 1998, and powered a Torero offense ranked 16th in team kills per game ( 17.0 I) and hitting percentage (.27 1). Senior setter Kati e Lindquist (Huntington Beach, CA), j oined Yanchulova on the AVCAAII– District VIII Team - the first time a pair ofToreros have earned all-district recognition in the same season. US D placed five on the All-West Coast Conference Team, including first team selections, Yanchulova (Player of the Year), Lindquist and junior outside hitter Adrian Frediani (Rancho Bernardo, CA). Sopho– more midd le, Debra Robertson (Cupertino, CA), was a second team se lection during her freshman campaign at Alcala Park . While the Toreros return depth and experience at all positions, the bench will boast a decidedly di fferent look. After nine seasons as head coach, Sue Snyder ( 193-89; .684 winning percentage) stepped down to spend more time wi th her young family. Snyder's top assistant, Jennifer Toms earned the head job, becomingj ust the third volleyball coach in USD hi story. Toms begins her first head coaching position with a wea lth of experience as a player and assistant and inherits a team stocked wi th players she helped recruit in her two seasons under Snyder. :J' Ci :JEH:J (J !J!JEAISE Once agai n the foca l point of US D's attack wil l center on Yanchu lova (5.9 kpg; 3.9 dpg), who shattered vi rtual ly every US D single match and career kil ls record in 1998 and surpassed 30 kills on fo ur occas ions last season. Yanchulova needs just I03 kills to set the US D career ki ll s record, The Toreros also will rely on the distributing talents of Lindquist ( 13 .2 apg) who enters 1999 needing just 304 assists to become the Toreros' all-time leader. 5 C!:JlHS .NEW 5 C!:JlURC!

Other favo rite targets for Lindqui st include Frediani (4.0 kpg; 3.6 dpg) and Robertson (2.3 kpg; 1.0 blocks). Senior outside hitter Paige Spaulding (San Clemente, CA), established career highs in every statistica l category in 1998 and junior middle blocker Kristi Pearson (Santa Ana, CA), looks to return to the lineup fo llow ing off-season knee surgery, Sophomores, outside hitter Ann Mott (San Luis Obispo, CA), middle blocker Lindsey Lampert (Long Beach, CA) and setter A li Martin (Paso Robles, CA) return adding more options for Toms, Sophomore defensive speciali st, Stephanie Moreno (San Mateo, CA), also returns and was the only Torero to play in every game of every match in 1998. eeass C!!J 2002 A talented group of recruits promises to add additiona l depth and versatility to the Toreros in 1999. Bridget Merritt (Sea l Beach, CA), adds a strong offensive and defensive presence in the middle, while Noe l Frohman (Round Rock, TX) and Andrea DeMark (Prescott, AZ), strengthen the outside hitter positi on. Back row specialist, Kimmi Romo (Tucson, AZ), provides additional defensive suppo11. W ES:J e CJas:J (!,C)Af!JUREAfeE Wa:Je:Jl 1999 promises continued excitement and success for Torero Voll eyball . Once aga in, the US D schedule boasts three teams in the pre– season AVCA Top-25 (Pepperdine, Loyola Marymount and Arizona), while the Toreros face seven 1998 NCAA Tournament participants (Arizona, Fresno State, Georgetown, Pepperdine, Sacramento State, San Jose State and Santa C lara). Competition expects to be fi erce in the West Coast Confere nce this season as the Toreros attempt to become the third team to three-peat as league champions. Pepperdine ( 12) achieved the highest pre-season rank ing ever by a WCC school, while Loyola Marymount and Santa Clara return many key starters and contributors. Torero Volleyba ll is poised and ready to defend their back-to– back WCC Titles and looks to bring the hardware home one more time thi s century. Records Fell in 1999
