Longnecker Competition Pool is one of the nation s top small-college aquatic facilities. The 8-lane facility is regarded as one of the fastest pools in the region and is reserved solely for use by the College s swimming and water polo athletes. The shallow end of the Pool is seven feet; thus the Pool is able to host several Collegiate Water Polo Association events that are restricted from shallow-deep pools. Since 2000, Grove City College has hosted several CWPA championship events. Last year, the CWPA held the Division III Championships at Grove City. In 2008, Grove City hosted the CWPA Western Division Championships. Grove City also hosts the Presidents Athletic Conference Swimming and Diving Championships each year. The James E. Longnecker Competition Pool is 25 yards in length and 56 feet wide. The seating capacity of the Pool area is approximately 400. 2

GROVE CITY COLLEGE 2013 IN REVIEW 2013 REVIEW The 14th season of intercollegiate women's water polo at Grove City College proved to be another highlysuccessful campaign as the Wolverines won the Collegiate Water Polo Associate Division III regular-season title and reached the conference tournament championship match for the fourth consecutive season. Under first-year head coach Rachel Griepsma, the Wolverines finished the 2013 campaign with a 12-9 overall record, marking the sixth-consecutive season at or above a.500 winning percentage. The 2013 squad featured four freshmen, two sophomores, two juniors and just one senior. The lone senior, Amanda Johnston, wrapped up a stellar career in goal by earning First Team All-CWPA Division III recognition from the league's head coaches following the season. On the season, she posted 216 saves, a.585 save percentage, a 7.28 goals allowed average and 30 steals. Sophomores Jocelyn Hinkle and Lauren Hulsebus joined Johnston on the First Team, while junior Kristi Baur earned Second Team recognition. Hinkle ranked second on the squad in both goals (49) and assists (27) while leading the team in steals (61), blocked shots (13), shooting percentage (.441) and drawn ejections (51). Newcomers Lauren Burrows, Ashley Henderson and Ashley Parks each started all 21 games for Grove City. After posting an 11-1 record in CWPA Division III play during the regular season, the Wolverines entered the conference tournament, hosted by Connecticut College April 12-13, as the top seed. 2013 RESULTS Date Opponent Result Score Record March 2 WASH. & JEFF.* W 12-6 1-0 March 2 PSU BEHREND* W 22-3 2-0 March 9 Mercyhurst L 7-5 2-1 March 9 at Wash. & Jeff.* W 8-6 3-1 March 14 at PSU Behrend* W 7-1 4-1 March 16 Mercyhurst L 7-4 4-2 March 16 Notre Dame (O.)

GROVE CITY COLLEGE ABOUT GROVE CITY COLLEGE The beautifully landscaped campus of Grove City College stretches over 150 acres and includes 28 neo- Gothic buildings. It is considered one of the loveliest in the nation. While the College has changed to meet the needs of the society it serves, its basic philosophy has remained unchanged since its founding in 1876. It is a Christian, liberal arts institution, dedicated to the principle of providing the highest quality education at the lowest possible cost. Wishing to remain truly independent and to retain its distinctive qualities as a private school governed by private citizens (trustees), it is one of few colleges in the country that does not accept federal funds. Affiliated with the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.), but not narrowly denominational, the College believes that to be well-educated a student should be exposed to the central ideas of the Judeo-Christian tradition. Grove City College offers undergraduate degrees in liberal arts, sciences, engineering, business, and music and is distinguished as a national leader in education. Grove City s programs in electrical and mechanical engineering are accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission Board of the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology. The big business school curriculum prepares students for today s global business reality. An extensive variety of internship opportunities are provided across the curriculum. Grove City College wants its students to be prepared in this age of mobile information technology. Each entering freshman receives a tablet computer which is his or hers to keep upon graduation with a four-year degree. This is part of the Information Technology Initiative, a total program integrating technology across the curriculum. ABOUT THE COLLEGE Grove City College s Breen Student Union The College believes that its student body has a unique mix of talents and abilities. Its Career Services program helps students identify those key assets during the first year and then builds a four-year strategy to help them pursue a satisfying career. Personal counseling, professional speakers, databases, alumni contacts, summer internships, corporate visits, employer presentations and more are incorporated into the career preparation experience. Grove City follows the semester calendar plan, in addition to offering two-week sessions in January and May. Most of the 2,500 students live in separate men s and women s dormitories. The rest are local commuters or married students. A full program of cultural, professional, athletic and social activities is offered, including 19 intercollegiate varsity athletic teams.
