Wasik enjoyed a long and illustrious career at EMU, as a student, professor, coach and mentor during her 32-year professional affiliation with the University. A product of Pontiac Central High School, Wasik went on to earn both her bachelor’s (1962) and master’s (1968). While an undergraduate, Wasik played tennis, field hockey and basketball for four years as well as being a member of the Mortar Board and president of Delta Zeta Sorority. She went on to teach and coach basketball, volleyball and field hockey at Grosse Pointe University Liggett School from 1962-64 and spent the 1970-71 season as a tennis coach at Ohio State University before returning to her alma mater to join the physical education staff and become a collegiate head coach. Wasik coached the EMU women’s tennis team from 1979-80 through 1990-91 and recorded a 162-108 overall dual-meet record. She was named Mid-American Conference Coach of the Year in 1986-87 when she led the then-Hurons to a second-place finish and was also named league Coach of the Year in 1983-84 after she directed her team to a third-place finish in the championships. In 11 MAC seasons under Wasik, the team finished second twice, third eight times and fourth once. Several of her athletics were individual MAC championship and also received academic awards. Wasik also served as EMU’s head volleyball coach from 1968-79. Her 1975-76 women’s volleyball team finished third in the State Association of Intercollegiate Athletics for Women (AIAW) meet. She retired from coaching in 1991 and continued to teach in the physical education department until retiring from that position in 1996.

2016-17 Year in Review

The Eastern Michigan University tennis team finished the 2016-17 campaign with an overall record of 6-16 and a record of 1-7 in Mid-American Conference play. Sophomore Marie Mayerova was one of the bright spots for the Eagles during the season, putting together a record of 9-8 while playing as EMU’s No. 1 singles player. Her nine wins were the second-most on the team, as she was also the only player to finish with a record above the .500 threshold. Mayerova teamed up with junior Andrea Martinovska to form the top doubles team for Eastern, as the pair went 7-7 at No. 1 on the season. Additionally, Martinovska added seven wins in singles playing primarily No. 2 and 3 during the season.

Fellow junior Ani Gogvadze had a fine season for the Green and White, registering eight wins while playing matches at No. 1, 2, and 3 singles. She also combined with senior Maria Paula Ribero for nine doubles wins at the No. 2 spot. Ribero finished her final season with Eastern with a 8-11 record, playing at No. 3, 4, and 5 for the Eagles. Five Eagles named to the Academic All-MidAmerican Conference team as Alejandra Barcelo Almoyna (Alicante, Spain) and Marie Mayerova (Krmelin, Czech Republic) each earned distinction for the first time in their careers, while Andrea Martinovska (Plzn, Czech Republic), Renu Sharma (Fardabad, India), and Anna Velva (Sofia, Bulgaria) garnered the honor for the second consecutive season.

Leading the team in singles wins was Anna Veleva. The junior had 10 wins, five at No. 4 and five at No. 5 singles. She also finished with four wins in doubles. Eastern Michigan University Women’s Tennis Two-time Mid-American Conference Champions • 1998 • 2001 •

Head Coach Jayson Wiseman Head Coach Jayson Wiseman 1st Season Ferris State, 2002 Bowling Green, 2011, ‘12 Jayson Wiseman was named as the Head Women’s Tennis Coach at Eastern Michigan University,Sept. 11, 2017, by Vice President/Director of Athletics Scott Wetherbee. Wiseman will start his first season at EMU in 2017-18. Wiseman has made the steady climb up the ranks in the tennis coaching circuit, working at the high school, club, and now collegiate levels. In total, he has six years of NCAA Division I tennis experience with stops at Bowling Green State University, Wright State University and Evansville. Wiseman turned around the Purple Aces’ program in two seasons, going from eight wins in 2015-16 to 17 in 2016-17. Recruiting was the biggest reason for Wiseman’s turnaround, as Evansville’s 2016 recruiting class was ranked eighth in the mid-majors and 33rd nationally. After going winless in Missouri Valley Conference play during his inaugural season, Wiseman led Evansville to a second-place finish in the MVC with a 5-2 record last year. For their efforts, Diana Tkachenko earned the league’s Freshman of the Year award while Chieko Yamada earned a nod on the All-Select Team. Tkachenko completed a spectacular freshman campaign at UE, as she went 31-8 overall and 6-1 in conference play. Slotted at No. 1 singles for the Purple Aces in 2016-17, Yamada won 18 matches while going an impressive 4-3 in conference matches in the top spot. Wiseman made his way to Evansville from Wright State University where he was an assistant coach for the Raiders in 2015. He worked with both the men’s and women’s squads at WSU and worked with team travel and recruiting while providing expertise during practice. From 2005-2015, he was the sole proprietor and head professional of Jayson Wiseman Tennis. Wiseman provided professional instruction and service to hundreds of children and adults in the local community while developing new clients and programs on a continual basis. In that time, he also worked at Stone Oak, Shadow Valley and Toledo Tennis Clubs, serving as an assistant head tennis professional. He coached at the high school level from 2008-11, leading the boys and girls tennis teams at Sylvania (Ohio) Southview Senior High School. In his stint there, he coached the school’s first four State Tournament participants since 1995 and was named the 2009 Coach of the Year, while leading the girls team to its first

league championship. Between 2004 and 2007, Wiseman worked at Mid-American Conference rival Bowling Green State University as a volunteer assistant coach. He designed and implemented a comprehensive conditioning program for the team and also operated their annual invitational tournament. His work with the Falcons also included recruiting, coaching in matches and practice, and various NCAA compliance activities. Wiseman is a graduate of Ferris State University where he received a B.S. in Marketing and Professional Tennis Management in May of 2002. Wiseman went on to earn a pair of degrees from BGSU. He earned a Master’s in Sport Administration in 2011 and an M.C.J.A. in Criminal Justice a year later. Wiseman and wife, Trena, and have eight children: Trena, Carrina, Evangelina, Alexander, Ashton, Amelina, Jasmina, and Anderson.

Eastern Michigan University Where We’re Located

Eastern Michigan University is located in historic Ypsilanti, about 10 miles east of Ann Arbor, 40 miles west of Detroit and just 20 minutes from Detroit Metropolitan Airport. It is an area rich in academic, research, technological and recreational resources. The University also has sites in Livonia, Jackson, Traverse City, Flint, Detroit and Monroe. EMU’s 800 plus-acre campus of scenic flora and wooded areas includes 18 miles of walkways and jogging trails and has 122 buildings throughout the academic and athletic campuses. Eagle Crest – Eastern Michigan’s conference center, golf course and resort – is located on the banks of nearby Ford Lake. Ypsilanti plays a leading role in industry and education. The city and the University have forged close ties that have lasted more than 160 years.

What Makes Us Unique

In 1849, the Senate and House of Representatives of the State of Michigan formally paved the way for the establishment of Michigan State Normal School, with the exclusive purposes of instructing persons in the art of teaching; providing a good common school education; and giving instruction in the mechanic arts, husbandry, agricultural chemistry and the laws of the United States. Since its inception, Eastern Michigan, first as a Normal School, then as a College and finally as a University, has grown and developed to respond to the ever-changing needs of society. Over the years, EMU has educated thousands of sons and daughters of Michigan, the nation, and the world. The university currently serves 23,000 students who are pursuing undergraduate, graduate, specialist, doctoral and certificate degrees in the arts, sciences and professions. In all, more than 200 majors, minors and concentrations are delivered through the University’s Colleges of Arts and Sciences; Business; Education; Health and Human Services; Technology, and its graduate school. Eastern Michigan’s exceptional faculty, students and alumni include CEOs from major businesses, a National Student Teacher of the Year, National Teacher of the Year, numerous Fulbright Scholars and Milken Family Foundation National Educators award winners, and several Michigan Teachers of the Year. EMU is regularly recognized by national publications for its excellence, diversity, and commitment to applied education.

Our Students

With nearly 23,000 students, EMU provides a rich learning environment for the campus community. The University currently has approximately 18,000 undergraduates and 5,000 graduate students. Our students represent 45 states and 93 foreign countries. Of undergraduate students, 72 percent are fulltime and 57 percent are women. The most popular majors are education, business, social sciences and history, science and engineering, English, and the health professions. EMU’s undergraduate population is approximately 65 percent white; 21 percent black; 2 percent international; 2.5 percent Asian-American; 2 percent Hispanic, 0.5 percent Native-American, and 7 percent not answered (i.e. elected not to respond to this inquiry). Eastern Michigan offers a number of special academic programs to help students succeed. These include the Honors College; the Holman Success Center; distance learning; accelerated format programs; online, weekend and evening programs and courses; American Humanics certification; Study Abroad Tours; a specialized master’s degree program for corporations offered onsite; a double master’s degree; online technologies for education and training. With more than 200 academic and social organizations, an extensive intramural sports program, 21 NCAA Division I-A sports and numerous cultural activities from which to choose, EMU students have diverse opportunities to become involved in campus life. Students’ on-campus housing choices range from traditional dormitorystyle rooms to apartments and include living/ learning center options.

Faculty/Staff

Eastern Michigan University employs nearly 700 full-time faculty and 1,000 staff members. Ninetyfour percent of EMU professors have doctoral degrees or terminal degrees in their field. The student to faculty ratio is 19:1. Faculty work closely with students, and many involve students in their research. Recently, the University celebrated its 30th annual Undergraduate Symposium; a benchmark program for undergraduate research.

Community Outreach

EMU’s Economic Impact

Since its founding in 1849, Eastern Michigan has provided quality services to the residents of Ypsilanti, Washtenaw County, the State of Michigan and other states and nations. EMU’s total impact on the Michigan economy of an estimated $3.7 billion annually reflects a return of more than $42 for each dollar received from the state. The University’s total impact on the Michigan economy results in a contribution of $166 million in state tax revenue. Thus, EMU’s impact on state government tax revenue is $1.87 in taxes for each dollar received from the state.

Eastern Michigan is making an impact nationally by channeling its academic research as a means of solving real world problems. EMU currently has 14 research institutes and centers that focus on community building and civic engagement, quality, community and regional development, small business development, geospatial education, textiles, export assistance and product development. EMU is well-known for merging theory and practice for the benefit of the community. Applied research leads to new knowledge, new jobs and new business. Annually, the university receives about $15 million in revenues for sponsored research and community service activities.

The Alumni Association

Representing more than 142,000 alumni and friends, the Alumni Association sponsors social and service-related programs for more than 20 geographically-based and special-interest alumni chapters.

Our History

1897: MSNS is the first U.S. teacher’s college to become a four-year institution.

Founded in 1849, when the state of Michigan was just 12 years old, Michigan State Normal School was designated by the state legislature as the first institution to educate teachers to serve the public schools. The University thus began, somewhat humbly, as the sixth teacher education institution in the nation. A campus that today comprises more than 800 acres was once a four-acre plot with one building and two programs of study – a classical course and an English Course. The school’s name changed several times –­ to Michigan State Normal College in 1899; to Eastern Michigan College in 1956; and finally to Eastern Michigan University in 1959. During its first 100 years, the institution certified thousands of teachers and developed the broad-based curricula that ultimately prepared it for university status. Within that new university, three colleges emerged: Education, Arts and Sciences and the Graduate School. The University has since expanded three more times, adding the College of Business in 1964, the College of Health and Human Services in 1975, and the College of Technology in 1980. More recently ,Eastern Michigan has developed Extended Programs and numerous community-focused institutes. The university has enhanced its learning environment through structural initiatives during the past several years. Recent construction includes the Terrestrial and Aquatic Research Facility (1998), the Convocation Center (1998), the Bruce T. Halle Library (1998), the John W. Porter College of Education Building (1999), the Everett L. Marshall College of Health and Human Services Building (2000), the Village residence hall (2001), University House (2003), new Student Center (2006), and the new Science Complex (2010).

Ypsilanti is a city in Washtenaw County with a population of 22,362. Originally a trading post established in 1809 by Gabriel Godfroy, a FrenchCanadian fur trader from Montreal, a permanent settlement was established on the east side of the Huron River in 1823 by Major Thomas Woodruff. It was incorporated into the Territory of Michigan as the village Woodruff’s Grove. A separate community a short distance away on the west side of the river was established in 1825 under the name “Ypsilanti”, after Demetrius Ypsilanti, a hero in the Greek War of Independence. Woodruff’s Grove changed its name to Ypsilanti in 1829, and the two communities eventually merged. Henry Ford and the automotive industry came to Ypsilanti in the 1930s and beautiful Ford Lake was created to generate hydroelectric power for the manufacturing plants. During World War II, Ypsilanti became home to the Willow Run Bomber Plant, a factory that would employ 100,000 workers.

Academic, personal and professional support are essential to college success. At EMU, Student-Athlete Support Services (SASS) helps student-athletes reach their full potential. Our philosophy is to offer an academic support program, integrated with the University, that will assist all student-athletes with their transition into college. This all-encompassing support continues throughout each student-athlete’s collegiate career, until the day he or she receives a diploma, lands a job or enters graduate school. Being proactive rather than reactive, our staff does not wait for an academic crisis to occur. We gather important background information and build an academic profile on each student-athlete, assessing his or her needs in advance. Services provided through SASS include the following: programs that focus on student-athletes’ special needs, monitoring academic performance, providing learning assistance, assisting with registration procedures, assisting in monitoring athletic eligibility, providing priority registration and making sure that athletes are advised about current NCAA, MAC and university rules and regulations. Freshmen and transfer student-athletes encounter a major transition when making the switch from high school or community college to a university. These students, while adjusting to their new routines, receive extra attention and support. College is not easy. But with hard work and dedication from both the studentathlete and the support staff, the student-athlete can have a successful college experience. The success of Eastern’s student-athletes hinges on their willingness to seek assistance from SASS as well as other university student services. SASS staff members continually refer student-athletes to the Admissions Office, Academic Advising Center, Career Services Center, Health Services, the Records Office, Financial Aid and The Holman Learning Center. Faculty members also provide assistance to student-athletes through advising in course selection and providing additional help with courses when requested.

Athletic Training and Sports Medicine

The Eastern Michigan University Sports Medicine Department has a long history and reputation for excellence in the health care of student-athletes and the education of athletic training students. Founding practitioners Gary Strickland, Ron Venis and Dr. Wally Roeser envisioned a goal of first-class prevention, management and rehabilitation of athletic injuries for all student-athletes. Although the department continues to grow, its primary mission remains the same. The student-athletes participating in intercollegiate athletics receive comprehensive health care from an expansive sports medicine team. The Eastern Michigan University Sports Medicine staff is led by Dr. Tara MasterHunter, Dr. Zoe Foster, Dr. David Alvarez, Dr. George Pujalte, Dr. Wally Roeser, Dr. Bruce Miller, Dr. Don Wurtzel and head athletic trainer Steve Nordwall. Additionally, the staff consists of two primary care sports medicine fellows, three full-time staff athletic trainers, two full-time athletic training clinical educators, five graduate assistant athletic trainers and the team dentist. Our sports medicine staff works in conjunction with various medical professionals within the community who provide nutritional, dental, vision and other specialized services for our student-athletes. At Eastern Michigan University, the philosophy of the Sports Medicine staff is two-fold: To provide a high standard of medical care through effective preventive and management programs, and to facilitate an effective post-injury rehabilitation process for a safe return to competition. In all cases, the ultimate well-being of each student-athlete is considered our number one priority, not only while they compete at Eastern Michigan University, but during their lifetime as well. The Sports Medicine staff operates out of three campus athletic training facilities in the Convocation Center, Bowen Field House and the Rynearson Stadium team building.

Sports Performance/Strength and Conditioning

Our Sports Performance Program applies a complete approach to scientifically and practically progress each individual athlete. Our purpose is to improve all components that will aid in achieving maximal athletic performance while reducing the occurrence of injury. We incorporate athletic based, free weight, multi-joint, and multi-directional movements which vary from a diverse collection of strength and conditioning disciplines to prepare each athlete for the general and specific demands of their sport. Standards that will be implemented at all times are: Integrity, Attention to Detail, Quality before Quantity, and Execution before Innovation. Assuming quality thought and effort have been put into a sports performance program, all else being equal, the program feels that these three components are usually separating an elite level program from the average. Incorporating Daily Competitions – The ability for athletes to compete in an every day setting is critical to the success of team and individual sports. Anything from team relay’s, to 1 on 1 tug of wars, to using a dumbbell weight heavier than the previous week. I simply make the statement to my teams, “WIN THE DAY.” Work harder – beat your last weeks sets/reps/weight/time, COMPETE! There is competitive nature in all mankind. Sometimes it takes a little extra effort on the coaching end to see it. Fill your team with competitors and your program will take care of itself. Physical and Mental Sport Transfer – Training to the specifics of the sport, and style that the head coaches are teaching is an essential way to succeed at any level. Find out what the sport coaches are looking to achieve and speak their same language. You are an addition to their staff, hop on board and cater your philosophy to their needs. Giving each athlete specific examples of on field/on court experiences where success can either be earned or an opportunity can be lost. Being able to make athlete’s understand the importance of mental toughness that is needed in the weight room and how it transfers over to their sport. The pain, the physical and mental struggles they endure in each training session is setting them up for success for their competitive season. Fight for every rep just as you would for any rebound, blocked shot, interception, or stolen base. Make references back to their closest contests that might have been decided by one play – (or one rep). Positive Influential Environment – Do athletes leave the weight room looking to return for more or dreading the next time they have to mope through one of the most silent hours of their day? Each session, from the minute the first athlete walks in, to the last grueling minute they are dragging out, fill the room with ENERGY!!! Push them through their toughest moments and coach every rep. Show each and every athlete that you care about their progress. Stay vocal, provide positive feedback as well as constructive criticism, play that latest hip-hop track and find a way to create a positive training environment.
