�The University
astern Kentucky University is a regional coeducational public institution of higher education offering
general and liberal arts programs, pre-professional and
professional training in education and various other
fields at both the undergraduate and graduate levels.
Located in Richmond, Kentucky, Eastern has a distinguished record of more than seven decades of
educational service to the Commonwealth.
Eastern was established in 1906. The campus of the
old Central University, founded in 1874, was selected the
site of the new school.
In 1922, Eastern became a four-year institution
known as the Eastern Kentucky State Normal School and
Teachers College.
In 1935, a graduate program was approved at
Eastern, leading to the Master of Arts in Education. In
1948, the General Assembly removed the word
"Teachers" from the name of the College and granted the
College the right to award non-professional degrees.
The most significant day since its founding came for
Eastern February 26, 1966, when Governor Edward T.
Breathitt signed into law a bill renaming the institution

E

Eastern Kentucky University and sanctioning the awarding of graduate degrees in academic fields other than
ed.ucation.
Ever-mindful of the purpose of its founding, Eastern
continues to recognize its historic function of preparing
quality teachers for the elementary and secondary
schools of the Commonwealth. However, a strong liberal
arts curriculum leading to appropriate degrees, together
with pre-professional courses in several areas and
graduate programs, enable Eastern to uniquely serve the
Commonwealth as a regional university.

�Dr. H. Hanly Funderburk
EKU's Eighth President

D

r. H. Hanly Funderburk, Jr., is now in his first full
academic year as eighth president of Eastern Kentucky University. He was unanimously elected by the
EKU Board of Regents in November, 1984 to succeed Dr.
J.C. Powell as president and assumed office Jan. 1.
Throughout his more than 30 years of service to
education, Dr. Funderburk, 53, has held to his commitment to excellence in the classroom, in the research
Jaboratory, and as a university administrator.
Dr. Funderburk's background in many ways parallels
that of many other of Eastern Kentucky University's
founders - modest beginnings as a farm boy, earning his
education, military service, a welcomer of responsibility,
enthusiastic, impatient of mediocrity.
A native of Carrollton, Alabama, President
Funderburk earned the bachelor of science degree in
agricultural science from Auburn University, working on
a family farm each summer between terms. Following

College of Health, Physical Education, Recreation

A native of Nebraska, Dr. Bogue came to Eastern in
1979 as Dean of HPERA after a successful and distinguished career as a high school and college coach,
teacher and administrator. His Minden (Neb.) High
School basketball teams won 62 games and lost only four
from 1949-52 and he coached that school's 1952 team to

three years in the U.S. Army, he returned to Auburn to
earn a master of science degree in botany. Later, he
completed study for the doctor of philosophy degree in
plant physiology from Louisiana State University.
Dr. Funderburk held progressively responsible
positions in teaching, research and administration during
his years at Auburn University where he served with
distinction as president from 1980 to 1983. Prior to his
post at Auburn, Dr. Funderburk served as chancellor of
Auburn University at Montgomery, a regional university
that serves south central Alabama. The 500-acre campus
and its twenty million dollar physical plant was developed during his tenure there and today stands as a
testimonial to his administrative and leadership ability.
On his philosophy concerning the role of intercollegiate athletics, Dr. Funderburk says, "I believe that a
reasonable program of intercollegiate athletics, operated
in an ethical, rational manner is an important part of an
institution of higher education. We must not lose sight of
the fact that academics are our primary purpose, and we
must remember that participants on our teams are
student-athletes. It is also imperative that intercollegiate
athletics be conducted on a very high level of integrity.
"Within this framework, I believe that athletics have a
real role to play in the educational experience. A sound,
competitive program of athletics provides a rallying point
for an institution's alumni and can be of benefit to the
other, more fundamental, purposes of a university."
He and his wife, Helen, have two children, Kenneth
Cliff, and Debra Elaine Dahl, and a granddaughter,
Ashley Dahl, age three.

the Nebraska state championship following a state
runnerup finish in 1951. He then took over the head
coaching reins at Hastings College (Neb.) from 1955-62.
His basketball teams were conference champions twice
and qualified twice for the NAIA National Tournament
after capturing district playoff titles. Bogue also coached
the baseball team to one conference title and two NAIA
playoff appearances.
While serving as a graduate assistant at the
University of Wyoming, he coached the University High
School's cross country team to the state championship.
He then returned to Minden High School to assume the
duties of principal and left in 1967 to take the position of
chairman of the Fort Hays State University (Kan.) Department of Health, Physical Education, Recreation, and
Athletics, a spot he held until coming to Eastern.
He earned his bachelor's degree from Kearney State
College in 1949, the master's from Nebraska, 1954, and
the doctorate from Wyoming, 1966.
Bogue is married to the former Nancy Snyder of
Trinidad, Colorado . They have three sons, Rusty, 28,
Randy, 25, and Rob, 20.

�Striving For Academic Excellence
ommitted to the goal of excellence in academics as
well as in athletics, Eastern Kentucky University has
established an academic counseling program to assist
student-athletes in earning a quality education. Athletic
Academic Counselor Jacqueline
Maki coordinates academic services for all participants in EKU's
men's and women's intercollegiate athletics program. Beginning
her tenth year on Eastern's
faculty, Jackie has a strong
personal commitment to studentat h I ete s' completing their
degrees while they compete for
athletic honors as well.
Jackie Maki
"These students are highly
Academic Counselor
talented, motivated individuals
operating under so many different pressures and
expectations," notes Maki. "We try to provide the
information, encouragement, and resources to help them
perform at their "personal best" academically and to
prepare realistically for successful professional and
personal lives after college."
Centrally located in the University's Department of
Learning Skills, Maki's office provides academic
counseling and advising for all student athletes but
especially focuses on the freshmen and on academically

C

disadvantaged students. "Adjusting to the pace and
responsibilities of university life is challenging enough
for most students," Maki typically tells the freshmen, "but
as athletes, you have to be super-organized and efficient
to be a good student while you're also investing several
hours a day in practice, competition, and team travel. It
may not be easy, but it is possible to excel in both worlds
... and we're here to help you reach your own personal
goals for excellence."
Working closely with administrators, coaches,
faculty, graduate assistants, and tutors, Maki coordinates
an evening study table for student-athletes; arranges
tutoring and study groups; conducts workshops on such
topics as time management and study skills; provides
individual counseling and referral for academic,
personal, and career concerns; teaches a specialized
academic orientation course for freshman athletes; and
advises students about their academic requirements and
progress.
"I think I have the best job on campus," Jackie Maki
boasts. "Every day I work with dozens of individuals from
diverse backgrounds who are really 'turned on' to
learning, growing, and personal success ... both in
athletics and in the classroom. And in their genuineness,
spontaneity, and concern for other people, these young
men and women are truly superstars to me."

Eastern Kentucky University

�Alumni Coliseum - Home of the Colonels
lumni Coliseum , which first opened for basketball
act ion in 1963, has been the home arena for Eastern
Kentucky University women's basketball since the 197677 season when the women moved from Weaver Health
Building.
Located on a southern slope of the EKU campus,
Alumni Coliseum forms the nucleus of a thoughtfully
p lanned sports complex. The Coliseum is a massive
physical plant and features a great triumph in architectural design with its modern laminated cross-arched
roof - the world 's largest of its kind - spanning 309 feet
and providing an unobstructed view of events held in the
main auditorium . A total of 626,276 board feet of lumber
form the 170 beams, and the roof, which arches gracefully 81 feet above floor level , is southern pine finished in
its natural beauty.
In addition to the main auditorium, which seats 6,500
for basketball games and 8,000 for other programs, the
building contains four basketball courts in an auxiliary
gymnasium on the east end; eight classrooms; twenty
offices; both indoor and outdoor swimming pools;
shower and locker rooms, a projection room, a training
room, and weight room. A hydraulic-operated stage is
located at the east end of the main arena floor.
Since the women's basketball program began playing
its games in Alumni Coliseum, the Colonels have
compiled an overall home record of 63 wins and 49
losses. Since taking over the head coaching duties in
1979, Dr. Dianne Murphy's teams have had a 50-30 record
in the Coliseum.

��Building A Winning Tradition

Dr. Dianne Murphy
Head Coach

The steady improvement of the Eastern Kentucky
.I. University women's basketball program over the past
six years can be attributed to an intensive approach,
sound recruiting tactics, and a commitment to hard work
by head coach, Dr. Dianne Murphy. Following a period of
years when the program was down, the Colonels are now
regarded as one of the top women's programs in the state
as well as considered one of the most competitive in the
Ohio Valley Conference.
As a coach and player, Murphy has achieved success
wherever she has been. As a student-athlete at Tennessee Tech University, she lettered on the volleyball,
basketball, and tennis teams. She graduated from
Tennessee Tech in Cookeville in 1972 with a B.S. degree
in Health and Physical Education. She earned her
Masters in the same field while working as a coaching
graduate assistant in the Tech program in 1973, and
completed her doctoral dissertation for a Ph.D. from the
Florida State University in 1980.
Murphy's coaching days started as the head basketball coach at Shorter College in Rome, Ga., wh ere she
coached the Hawkettes to 4-11, 20-8, and 13-11 seasons.
From 1976-79, she was at the helm of the Florida State
Lady Seminoles basketball program, and turned their
program around with excellent recruiting and a sound
coaching philosophy. In her first year at Florida State,
Murphy was looking for a little respect around the state
and produced a 11-12 record. Her 1977-78 team finished
second in the FAIAW State tournament with a 19- 15
record while the 1978-79 edition of the Lady Seminoles
captured the FAIAW State title and finished with a 19-14
record.
In six years at Eastern Kentucky University, Murphy
14

has taken a team who was 5-24 prior to her arrival and
produced seasons of9-19, 16-14, 14-16, 14-13, 17-11,and
18-10. Last year, Murphy's team set a new school record
for wins in a season with 18, and finished regular season
OVC play with an 8-6 record for third place and qualified
for a berth in the conference post-season tournament for
the third consecutive year.

Eastern Kentucky University

�Murphy has chaired numerous basketball committees and has been elected to Who's Who in American
Women. She was selected by her colleagues as the 198081 OVC Co-Coach of the Year. She is a frequent guest
speaker at banquets and clinics and always generates

enthusiasm and support for the Eastern women 's basketball program. Murphy has also been successful with
summer basketball camps and has conducted coaching
workshops and has published numerous articles on

happy that Eastern was the college of my choice."

V

an Marshel has the talent to step into the starting
lineup this season after seeing considerable playing
time as a sophomore. She possesses outstanding
jumping ability and quickness, but needs to improve her
strength and endurance. Van's true position is the second
guard spot, but she needs to improve her ball handl ing
and jump shot accuracy to be successful in that role. She
played for coach Thomas Stevens at White Plains H.S.
and participated in the Empire State Games. In additi o n
to her athletic skills, Van is an excellent artist.

ability. She is extremely quick and fast but needs to be
more consistent in her work habits and attitude in order to
reach her potential on the playing floor. "

Karen Carrico

success story in her own right, Karen Carrico comes
to Eastern as an outstanding high school player
from a small, private school that did not receive a lot of
publicity in Bardstown . She has been called the
"unknown" All-Stater, but her credentials are certainly
legitimate. Karen was a four-year starter for Coach Gary
Kidwell at Bethlehem H.S. and scored more than 1,400
points in her career. She was selected first team All-State
and was named to the Kentucky All-Star team and participated in the Kentucky East-West All-Star game. She is an
excellent student. Karen is the daughter of Mrs. Sarah
Jean Carrico of Bardstown.

A

Personal Profile

Coach Murphy on Carrico: "Karen is a coach's dream in
that she possesses the attitude to go along with the
necessary basketball skills. She is an excellent transition
player and is an outstanding passer for a player of her
size. Karen can play small forward, second guard, or even
point guard. She is the type of player that can do whatever it takes to help the team. Karen will make her impact
on our team as a freshman and could possibly be a starter
this year."

Why I Came to Eastern: "After visiting other schools and coaches around the area, I feel Eastern is the best
possible choice for me. The coaches and players seem to go together as a family. Unity is very important if
you want a successful team. Eastern not only has an interest in me as a player, but also as a student. The
coaches believe studies are first and playing ball is second . Here at Eastern you are not just another number
and it makes you feel comfortable in your home away from home."

Why I Came to Eastern: " I wanted a college that was going to help me prepare for the future. After visiting
several other colleges, none of them even came close to Eastern. EKU is very beautiful, the people are
friendly, and the atmosphere is great. But, the main reason that I chose Eastern was because of the great
coaching staff and their concern for me not only as a player, but also as a person."

Lisa Goodin
Sets High Standard to Break

Peggy Gay

Sandra Mukes

Shannon Brady

No other basketball player in Eastern women's
basketball history has come close to achieving what Lisa
Goodin did in her four years in a Colonel uniform. The
Austin, Ind ., native poured in 1,920 points during an
outstanding career.
The 5-6 sharpshooter will long be remembered for
her free throw accuracy as well as her scoring ability. In
two of her four seasons, Goodin led the nation's NCAA
Division 1 schools in free throw percentage. As a freshman, she connected on .897 percent of her charity tosses
and in her junior year she converted 91 percent.
A three-time All-Ohio Valley Conference selection,
Goodin was named to a number of post-season teams
during her tenure. She was named to the AII-OVC
Freshman team, AII-KWIC, and OVC All-Tournament
team. In addition, she was selected MVP of the 1981
Colonel Classic.
"Lisa has helped lead the women's basketball program here at Eastern to the level of distinction it enjoys
today," said Colonel head coach Dr. Dianne Murphy.

�THE OHIO VALLEY CONFERENCE
he idea of forming the Ohio Valley Conference was
originated in 1941, but could not be implemented
until after World War II. In 1948 five schools - Western
Kentucky, Eastern Kentucky, Murray, Morehead, and
Louisville - withdrew from the Kentucky Intercollegiate
Athletic Conference and were joined by Evansville in
forming the original membership of the OVC. They were
joined shortly thereafter by Tennessee Tech and
Marshall.
The membership has changed somewhat over the
years. Middle Tennessee joined the league in 1952, East
Tennessee in 1957, and Austin Peay in 1962. They
replaced Louisville, which became independent in 1949,
and Marshall and Evansville, which departed in 1952. East
Tennessee left in 1978 and was replaced by Akron, which
began competition in 1980, and Youngstown joined the
league race in 1981. Western Kentucky withdrew its
membership at the conclusion of the 1981-82 athletic
year.
In 1955 the National Collegiate Athletic Association

T

42

formally recognized the OVC as a major basketball
conference, giving the league's champion an automatic
bid to the post-season NCAA Tournament. At the time,
the OVC was only the second six-team conference to
obtain major status from the NCAA. Prior to 1955,
Western Kentucky, Eastern Kentucky, and Murray were
the only OVC members ranked as major basketball
powers.
In 1978, the OVC began football competition in the
NCAA Division I-AA which offers a post-season
championship playoff system. Eastern Kentucky
captured the 1979 and 1982 national championship titles
and has represented the OVC in two other championship
games in 1980 and 1981, finishing in the runnersup slot
those years.
The administration of the conference is now supervised by James Delany, who formerly served on the staff
of the NCAA.
Delany is the OVC's fourth commissioner, following
Art Guepe (1963-75), Paul Dietzel (1975-76), and Bob
Vanatta ( 1976-79) .

Eastern Kentucky University

�All-Sports Champions
astern's intercollegiate athletics program is "King of
the Hill" again in the Ohio Valley Conference . For
the second consecutive year, EKU won both the men's
and women's OVC All-Sports Championships, symbolic
of overall athletic excellence within the conference.
For EKU's men's teams, it marks the second straight
year they have received the trophy, while the women
continue their domination of OVC sports by winning the
award for the third consecutive time. No other school in
conference history has captured both trophies in the
same season.
On the men's side, Eastern rolled up 1091/2 points to
outdistance second-place Murray State with 97. Middle
Tennessee took third place with 85 points followed by
Austin Peay with 62, Akron, 52, Youngstown State 51 1/2 ,
Tennessee Tech, 44, and Morehead State, 40. The
Colonels won OVC championships in cross country,
football, and golf while finishing second in outdoor track,
baseball (divisional), indoor track, and basketball (tie).
EKU's women took three of the five conference
championships to total 58 points. Middle Tennessee was
second with 47 followed by Austin Peay, 43, Morehead

E

State, 39, Tennessee Tech , 38, Murray State, 34, Akron,
33, and Youngstown State, 23. Eastern won titles in cross
country, volleyball, and outdoor track.
