SOUTH ATLANTIC CONFERENCE BASKETBALL 2008-09 www.thesac.com

The South Atlantic Conference is in its

33nd year of athletic tradition and excel-

lence. The conference has enjoyed tremen-

dous success due to dedicated people build-

ing a premier athletic conference throughout

its history.

The distant forerunner of the South

Atlantic Conference was the North State

Atlantic Conference (NSIAC). The NSIAC

was formed when the “Little Six”, as it

was called, broke from the North Carolina

Intercollegiate Athletic Conference in 1930.

These charter members included Lenoir-

Rhyne College, Atlantic Christian, Catawba

College, Guilford College, Elon College,

and High Point University.

The North State continued to grow over

the next 30 years, adding Western Carolina

(1933), East Carolina (1947) and Pfeiffer

(1960). A name change became necessary

when the league accepted Newberry as its

fi rst South Carolina member in 1961. The

league took on the name Carolinas Intercol-

legiate Athletic Conference (CIAC) on May

20th of that year.

The CIAC saw several changes in the

following years as East Carolina withdrew

from the league in 1962. Appalachian State

and Western Carolina followed in 1971

and 1976. All three landed in the Southern

Conference.

The South Atlantic Conference was

founded in 1975 solely as a football con-

ference. The league received its name from

a contest in which Kurt Brenneman of

Greensboro, NC became the fi rst to submit

the SAC-8 moniker.

The SAC-8 consisted of Carson-Newman

College, Catawba College, Elon College,

Gardner-Webb University, Lenoir-Rhyne

College, Mars Hill College, Newberry Col-

lege, and Presbyterian College. Dr. Fred

Bentley, of Mars Hill College, was named

league president for its inaugural year, by a

vote of the member institutions.

After the fi rst season of play in the SAC-8,

the Bears of Lenoir-Rhyne College captured

the fi rst football title.

In 1989, the league’s 15th year of opera-

tion, the South Atlantic Conference became

a comprehensive, all-sports conference.

Doug Echols was named the league’s fi rst

Commissioner. That year the South Atlantic

Conference sponsored 10 sports - football,

men’s and women’s basketball, baseball,

softball, men’s soccer, volleyball, men’s

golf, men’s and women’s tennis. Later the

conference grew to 14 championship sports

by adding women ‘s soccer (1990), men’s

and women’s cross country (1993) and

women’s golf (1999).

The South Atlantic Conference was com-

posed of the same eight member institutions

from 1975 until 1988, when Wingate Uni-

versity replaced Newberry College as the

eighth member institution. Newberry later

rejoined the conference in 1996.

In July of 1998, Tusculum College was

admitted as a member of the league, and

Lincoln Memorial University began play

in the conference in the 2006-07 academic

year. Brevard College was admitted as a

provisional member in 2007.

In 2008, Echols retired after serving as

Commissioner for 19 years and Patrick Britz

was hired as the new Commissioner.

Today the conference is a group of nine

private, liberal and civic arts colleges and

universities, similar in size and athletic phi-

losophy. Since becoming eligible for NCAA

Division II postseason play in 1993, the

league has sent representatives from all of its

sponsored sports to NCAA postseason play.

The league membership now includes

Brevard College in Brevard, N.C.; Carson-

Newman in Jefferson City, TN; Catawba

College in Salisbury, NC; Lenoir-Rhyne

University in Hickory, NC; Lincoln Memo-

rial University in Harrogate, TN; Mars Hill

College in Mars Hill, NC; Newberry Col-

lege in Newberry, SC; Tusculum College in

Greeneville, TN; and Wingate University in

Wingate, NC.

ROCK HILL, SC – Wingate University

senior women’s basketball player Anna At-

kinson is the recipient of the 2007-08 NCAA

Division II Conference Commissioners’

Association Female Scholar-Athlete of the

Year Award, it was announced by the CCA.

Atkinson recorded a perfect 4.0 cumula-

tive grade point average through her junior

year as a biology major and led the Wingate

University women’s basketball team to the

NCAA Division II Elite Eight.

A native of Marion, N.C., Atkinson

earned the South Atlantic Conference Fe-

male Athlete of the Year Award and the

South Atlantic Conference Presidents’

Award, presented to the conference’s top

female scholar-athlete. She is only the third

person in conference history to win both of

the league’s prestigious post-season awards.

She becomes the fi rst SAC student-athlete

to be honored with the national CCA Schol-

ar-Athlete of the Year Award.

“Anna Atkinson represents everything

that is good about intercollegiate athletics.

This is a great honor for her and the South

Atlantic Conference is extremely proud of

her accomplishments in the classroom and

the basketball court,” South Atlantic Con-

ference Commissioner Patrick Britz said.

Atkinson was also the 2008 South Atlan-

tic Conference Women’s Basketball Player

of the Year after leading the Bulldogs with

14.8 points per game and 8.4 assists per

game. She was second in the country in as-

sist-to-turnover ratio (3.27) third in assists

and fi fth in steals (3.7 per game). Atkinson

also was named the MVP of both the Food

Lion SAC Tournament and the NCAA Divi-

sion II South Atlantic Regional Tournament

this past year. Atkinson is one of only three

NCAA Division II student-athletes to earn

All-American honors on the court and in the

classroom during the 2007-08 season. She

was named to the 2007-08 Daktronics Di-

vision II women’s basketball All-American

third team and to the ESPN the Magazine/

CoSIDA Academic All-America women’s

basketball fi rst-team (college division).

“Anna Atkinson defi nes the term schol-

ar-athlete,” said Wingate University Presi-

dent Dr. Jerry McGee. “She is an extraor-

dinary basketball player and a distinguished

academic student. She beautifully represents

what the NCAA Division II is all about…a

balance between academics and athletics.”

“Anna is an incredible young women

who gives her best in every area of her life,”

said Wingate women’s basketball coach

Barbara Nelson.

These awards, sponsored by Disney

Sports, provide the opportunity for Division

II to highlight the extraordinary achieve-

ments of its student-athletes.

BREVARD TORNADOS

Warriors – that is the theme of the season

for the Brevard College men’s basketball

team in 2008-09, as head coach Michael

Jones returns 11 out of 12 players from a

year ago that posted a 4-24 record overall as

provisional members of the NCAA Division

II and the South Atlantic Conference.

The Tornados return 11 players from last

season’s team, but will only have the services

of eight of those returnees

as three will redshirt this

season. However, all five

starters, which started

all 28 games in 2007-

08, return headlined by

Preseason All-SAC Second

Team selection Jonathon

Whitson (Clyde, N.C.).

Last season Whitson led

the Tornados and was third in the SAC in

scoring, averaging 18.0 points per game and

was the number one option offensively. The

junior forward also led the team and was in

the top-fi ve of the conference in rebounding,

hauling in 7.9 per game.

Again helping Whitson in the low post is

senior Joseph Chilton (Brasstown, N.C.). The

6-8 Chilton started in all 28 games last season

and was the leading scorer in two games last

season, one of those being the Tornados 74-68

win over Newberry on February 27.

Help in the low post this season will come

in a big way in 6-10 Sam Carlisle (Raleigh,

N.C.). The redshirt junior, who sat out last

season after transferring from Wingate

University, brings both size and leadership

to the frontcourt for the Tornados.

At the other forward position a number

of returners and newcomers will bring much

needed depth to the BC lineup. Returning from

a year ago is senior Sean Ferretti (Buffalo,

N.Y.), Shane Galloway (Rosman, N.C.) and

Radosav Babic (Podgorica, Montenegro).

At 6-6, Ferretti has long arms and quick feet

which make him one of the top defenders in

the league. Galloway, the sixth man from a

year ago, will again see time off the bench

for the Tornados, as the sharp-shooting left-

hander averaged 7.9 points per game and shot

35.9 percent from the three-point line. Sharp-

shooting Babic fi nished the season shooting

40.5 percent from behind the arc. Newcomer

Michael Gist (Hephzibah, Ga.), a wide receiver

on the Tornados football team, will compete for

playing time as soon as football season ends.

Gist has incredible timing to go along with a

soft touch around the basket and quick hands

which can cause match up diffi culties.

At the guard spots, the Tornados are

deep as Coach Jones’ has a plethora of

individuals both returners and newcomers

that will compete for immediate playing

time. Returning in 2008-09 is point guard

Cody Siniard (Brevard, N.C.), shooting guard

Andrew Freeman (Asheville, N.C.) and guard

Chase Lance (Brevard, N.C.). Last season,

redshirt junior Siniard ran the offense for

the Tornados, starting all 28 games. Siniard

averaged 5.5 points per game, while dishing

out 118 assists. Freeman, his backcourt

running mate, is a 6-6 shooting guard who

can also play small forward. Freeman, an

outside threat, hit 35.1 percent of his three

point attempts a year ago, connecting on a

team-high 54 threes. Lance, who saw action

sparingly a year ago, has worked hard in

the off-season and will look to compete for

playing time in a crowded backcourt.

Depth and competition for playing time will

come from a number of new faces highlighted

by redshirt juniors Nathan Whitmire (Rosman,

N.C.) and Darin Dellinger (Stanley, N.C.).

Both Whitmire, a 6-4 point-forward, and

Dellinger, a 5-11 speedster, sat out last season.

In 2006-07, Whitmire started in 23 games as

a sophomore where he averaged 7.9 points

and 4.7 rebounds per game, while Dellinger

started nine games, playing 21.9 minutes per

game and averaged 6.6 points 2.3 assists per

game as a sophomore.

Newcomers Christian Matus (Miami,

Fla.), who did not play last season, along with

freshmen Terrence Johnson (Owensboro, Ky.)

and Richard Bush (North Augusta, Ga.) will

all compete for playing time.

CARSON-NEWMAN EAGLES

The Carson-Newman Eagles enter the

2008-’09 basketball season with their high-

est level of expectations the last half-decade.

C-N returns three starters from last season’s

squad which set the South Atlantic Confer-

ence record for points per game at 90.3.

Chemistry and injuries could be the keys, as

Eagle head coach Dale Clayton begins his

21st season with one of his most-talented

squads.

A trio of All-SAC per-

formers from a season ago

is expected to lead way,

beginning with the point

guard spot, and junior Jor-

dan Dixon. The Clinton,

Tenn.-product struggled

with the lasting effects of

a concussion suffered in a

loss at Lenoir-Rhyne in mid-February, but

still managed to average 10.3 points per

game, and lead the Eagles with 114 assists.

The fi rst team All-SAC preseason selection

is expected to lead the Eagles.

Sophomore Cameron Sharpe, an All-

SAC Freshman Team selection from 2007-

08 will backup Dixon, and could see time at

the two guard.

Senior Bobby Guyton, a second team All-

SAC selection, gives the Eagles a returning

double-digit scorer in the post. He averaged

10 points and 5.9 boards, which led the

team, a season ago. His season, and likely an

NCAA Tournament berth for the Eagles, fell

to the fl oor when he crumbled to the fl oor

2007-08 Statistics

Jordan DixonJunior guard


Andrew Johnson

win at Newberry in early February.

Guyton averaged 16 points and 11.5

boards in his fi nal two games of the year,

wins over Catawba and Newberry. With just

one semester of availability left, he will join

the Eagles in December.

Seniors Jesse McMurray and Andrew

Johnson return for their fi nal season.

McMurray, one of the SAC top sharpshoot-

ers, buried a combined 12 threes in back-to-

back C-N wins over Mars Hill and North

Greenville last season. He fi nished the year

shooting 43 percent (76-of-179) from behind

the arc, averaging nine points per game.

Johnson is a combo-guard, who turned in

7.9 points per game and led the Eagles with

55 steals, and will draw the Eagles’ toughest

defensive assignment at guard each night.

Sophomore Adam Plavich will move to

his natural position, shooting guard, after

experimenting at point at a freshman. He,

like McMurray, has unlimited range.

Inside, senior Zach Hyatte and sophomore

Kevin Hare will play key roles. Hyatte aver-

aged 7.3 points per game as a junior, and was

one of four Eagles to play in every game.

Sophomore Justin Walker worked his

way into the rotation some late in his fresh-

man year, and could also see time.

While what C-N returns from last sea-

son’s 18-win squad has Mossy Creek excit-

ed, the newcomers to the Eagle program are

the ones expected to help push C-N back to

the NCAA Tournament.

Junior Joey Cameron is an Auburn trans-

fer, and should be the “difference-maker” on

the low block. Junior college-transfers Dar-

ron Maxtion and Tray Okoth will join Cam-

eron in the post.

True freshmen Khamori Watts and Jared

Stephens will be two of the Eagles most-ath-

letic guards. Watts is a combo-guard, while

Stephens is a true point.

Freshmen John Kinman and Michael

Nicolo will both work to fi nd their way into

Clayton’s rotation.

2007-08 Statistics

Photo by Mike Slade

The 2007-08 season was looked at as a rebuilding

year after losing three key starters from the 06-07 league

championship team, but the Indians caught fi re at the end

of the season and as a fourth-seed made a run through

the conference tournament to gain a title and a second-

straight berth into the NCAA II Tournament. The team

will return four starters from last year and once again

look to be in contention for a title.

Catawba will fi eld a strong back court as

four guards saw action in the starting lineup

last season. Heading the list is sharp-shoot-

er Antonio Houston. The junior eclipsed

the 1,000-point plateau last season become

just the third Catawba player to achieve the

milestone before his junior season. The for-

mer South Atlantic Conference Freshman

of the Year averaged 17.7 points per game

and connected on 60 three-point goals in earned fi rst team

all-league honors.

Sophomore Dominick Reid followed Houston as

the conference Freshman of the Year, taking over point

guard duties in mid-season. He scored at an even 10

points per game and added three assists a contest. He hit

on 53 three-point goals, including several in late-game

clutch situations.

Joining the duo are juniors Rob Fields and Donzell

Williams. Fields started 21 games and was second to

Houston in scoring at 11.1 points a game. He hit on 39

three-pointers and canned 82.4 percent of his free throw

attempts. Williams had 29 starts and averaged 4.8 points

and 3.9 rebounds.

Down low, the Catawba Indians lost the services

of Norman Monroe. Monroe averaged 10.9 points and

pulled down 5.2 rebounds a game. Isaac Rose and swing-

man Donald Rutherford each saw time as a starter. Rose

averaged 9.7 points a game and hit on 32 three-point

goals. Rutherford tossed in 6.7 points and led the squad

in rebounding at 5.8 a game.

Cliff Burns also gave the Indians depth last season

in the post. He scored four points a game and shared the

lead on the team with 29 blocked shots. More depth on

the roster comes from post Finnur Magnusson and guard

Trey Shoemaker.

# NCAA Tournament

2007-08 Results

LENOIR-RHYNE BEARS

19


The Lenoir-Rhyne University men’s

basketball team continues to interchange

parts on the squad to help it maintain its perch

atop of the South Atlantic Conference.

The Bears (23-7 overall and 12-2 in league

play in 2007-08), winners of four of the last

six SAC regular season titles, had one of their

best seasons in recent memory last year. A 12-

game winning streak, a league title and a berth

in the NCAA Division II Regional Semifi nals

highlighted the 2007-08 campaign.

This season, expect a

bit of a different squad

with a new starter and three

newcomers, but expect the

results to be more of the

same under 23-year mentor

and SAC Coach Of The

Year John Lentz.

Al though anybody

losing two fi rst-team all-

conference players (Josh Kindred and Reggie

Bratton) will see a drop off, the Bears appear

well-positioned to keep things at a high level

in the frontcourt.

Senior forward Donte Watson, who has

started at times in each of his fi rst three years,

is the most experienced player returning up

front. Watson, the 2005-06 SAC Freshman Of

The Year, may not have spectacular numbers

(4.6 ppg and 2.5 rpg) but has been a consistent

and heady player for L-R.

Sophomore forward D.J. Blackmon has

outstanding athletic ability. Blackmon (5.4

ppg and 2.8 rpg) has a tremendous upside

and could develop into of the best players

not only on the team but in the conference.

One of the key components to last year’s

title run was the arrival at mid-season of

senior Elliott McDowell. With the ability

to score 20 to 25 points off the bench, the

talented reserve averaged 11.7 points per

game and quickly developed into one of the

best players on the team. McDowell, an all-

league preseason pick despite not starting in

2007-08, could see him numbers improve

even more if he transitions to the fi rst string.

Junior forward Jonathan Cook, in his

fourth year with the Bears, gives L-R an

option behind the three-point line and can

either start or come off the bench.

Lenoir-Rhyne has a lot of depth in

the front court as well with the return of

sophomore forwards Nathaniel Shaw, J.P.

Haumann and Paul Goldsmith.

Freshman forward Jeff Thomas is a nice

recruit who combines size and the ability to

shoot the mid-range jumper. Anything junior

center Julius Powell brings will be a plus for

the Bears. The Clemson University transfer

may fi gure prominently into L-R’s plans.

The entire backcourt remains intact and

should only get stronger and deeper.

The team runs through fi fth-year senior

Josh Rudder, who looks to end his career

in impressive style. The two-time All-SAC

honoree plays both point and off guard and

his deft ability and speed has been an asset

for the Bears and a headache for opponents.

Rudder can score (14.0 ppg in 2007-08), pass

(3.8 apg) and hit free throws (80 percent) and

can help carry the team to another title.

Not to be outdone is junior guard Marcus

Hodges. Hodges stepped right into the

starting lineup and didn’t fl inch, averaging

8.2 points per game and hitting 84 percent

of his free throws.

Junior guard Ryan Crawford is an

excellent athlete who can raise eyebrows with

his offensive moves and his ability to pass.

Look for Crawford (4.9 ppg) to score more

this season.

Sophomore Ja’Wan Davis saw a promising

fi rst season derailed because of injury but

should be back at 100 percent this year.

Freshman guard Jon Hathcock is a highly-

touted recruit and fifth-year senior A.J.

Brown provides leadership and could be an

asset off the bench.

Year By Year

Career 0-0 .000


The 2008-09 season marks the beginning of a new era in Lincoln

Memorial University men’s basketball. With an entirely new coaching

staff, 17 new players and only three returning players from a year

ago, this year’s Railsplitter basketball team will have many hurdles

to overcome.

LMU has three returnees led by 6-3 guard Ryan Whitaker.

Whitaker averaged 11.1 points per game as a freshman on his way

to earning South Atlantic Conference All-Freshman

Team honors last season. “I expect Ryan to be a

tremendous leader for us and he is certainly our most

experienced player,” says Railsplitter Head Coach

Josh Schertz.

Also back for the Railsplitters are seniors Wadner

Joseph and Matt Bogard. Joseph averaged 7.7 ppg.

last year, while Bogard chipped in 4.0 ppg. for LMU.

“Matt has become a leader for us on and off the

court and as our best perimeter defender he should

compete for minutes at the guard spot. Wadner is

continuing to improve and while he showed some fl ashes last year

as evidence by his 28 point performance against Carson-Newman,

we are hoping to see more consistency out of him as a senior.”

The Railsplitter coaching staff brought in 15 newcomers headlined

by local product and University of Louisville transfer Stuart Miller who

comes to LMU after a highly decorated high school career. “Stuart is

a tremendous shooter and will make an immediate impact for us.”

Other transfers include Robin Sikes (UNCW), D’Mario Curry

(Schoolcraft JC) and Josh Stanley (Spartanburg Methodist College).

“Robin is a very good player who has improved his physical

conditioning leaps and bounds over the last few months. He gives a

back-to-the-basket scorer with the ability to shoot the ball from the

perimeter. D’Mario Curry is the most talented player I have had the

opportunity to coach and if he continues to work hard I can see him

making a major impact not only on our team but in the South Atlantic

Conference. Josh Stanley is a versatile forward who is not only a great

shooter, but possesses a high basketball IQ and some toughness.”

The freshman class will be the foundation of the program as it

moves forward. “We have some talented freshman guards in Brandon

Armstrong (Chamblee High School), Justin Allen (Grove Hill High

School), Carlos Sanford (Riverside High School), Dominic Parker

(Ravenscroft High School), and Brandon O’Brien (Chamblee High

School). “I feel like we recruited some guards that are interchangeable

and that fi t our system perfectly,” says Schertz. “Given the lack of

returners, we are going to have to count on some freshman to play

major roles and I think some of these guys will be up to the task.”

Other newcomers to the front line include Desmond Johnson

(Cumberland High School), Scott Erland (Harpeth High School), and

Tony Martin Moeller High School). “These three guys have worked

exceptionally hard and are really talented. They obviously will go

through some growing pains as they develop, but I am excited to

watch them develop over the next few years.”

Other newcomers include Kyle Witek (High Point University),

Andy Hill (Milligan College), Ivan McCarty (Union Co. High School

and Jason Hull Lincoln High School) who will red shirt. “We have

good depth and that should allow our practices to be tough and

competitive. I like everything about this team except for its lack of

experience, but that will force us to learn by being thrown right into

it. Hopefully we will get better as the year goes along and be at our

best come tournament time.”

Mars Hill fi nished the 2007-08 campaign

14-16 overall and 5-9 in the South Atlantic

Conference. The Lions finished strong

as they made it to the fi nals of the SAC

Tournament where they fell to Catawba

College by just two points (54-52). MHC

returns four starters and 10 letter winners for

the 2008-09 season. The Lions are also under

the direction of new head coach Thomas

Nash, who took the reins in May.

The goal for the upcoming year is to be

competitive in every game. That is the team’s

main focus: to compete.

“We’ve got enough talent to do that and

we have a lot of camaraderie,” Nash said.

“As far as the conference,

we want to finish in the

upper half of the league. We

want to play until we’re not

allowed to play anymore.

We want an NCAA berth,

regional recognition, and

national recognition. Those

are the goals hopefully we

get to, and we’ve got a core

group of guys with six seniors that are going

to lead us with a sense of urgency which helps

to achieve our goals. Another goal is to play

a brand of basketball that is exciting for them

to play, to watch, and be a part of. We are

going to have to play very hard and consistent

on both ends of the fl oor. The team defi nitely

feels a winning season in within reach.”

Jamarl Glen, a fi rst team preseason All-

SAC pick, is a post player who can face the

basket from 20 feet out as well as play with

his back to the basket.

Andy Miller is a senior and brings a

tenacious work ethic. He is a force inside

and has the ability to score and defend at the

center or power forward position.

Akeene Coakley is a senior who has been

effective facing the basket because he’s a very

good passer and a solid scorer off the dribble.

Akeene, who can knock down the midrange

jumper, will look to be more physical and help

the Lions on the defensive end of the fl oor.

Tinos Brozos is a strong player with a

good build who also has the ability to shoot

the ball from the outside. Jarred Pickering is

a guy who is comfortable on the wing or in

the paint. Dallas Johnson can provide instant

offense because of his knack for scoring

points in bunches. Dominique Hicks played

junior college basketball last year and is an

explosive player.

P.J. Gore, a second team All-SAC selection,

is a returning senior who can really score.

Danny Sanders is a very athletic player who

can score the ball from very deep. He plays

above the rim and has nice slashing ability.

Julian Mack is a returning guard/forward

that is extremely athletic and will have to do

the little things for the team to be successful.

Defensively, the Lions will look for him to

pressure the ball and generate turnovers.

Stefan Ristic’ is a junior who has worked

hard during the offseason.

Stoney Polite, also a second team

preseason All-SAC pick, is a very talented

guard. Polite is a returning captain who can

score 20-plus points each night as well as get

his teammates involved with his playmaking

ability. He will be counted on as the Lions

catalyst on both ends of the fl oor.

Tony Blake is a self-made player. Nobody

has a better work ethic than Tony which is a

big reason his peers chose him as a captain.

JaShawn Anderson has great size and

strength for the guard position.

Quinn Nelson is a coach’s son. He

understands the details of the game, such as

the value of not turning over the basketball.

The strength of the 2008-09 squad should

be their athleticism. It will enable them to

play more up-tempo basketball on both

ends of the fl oor while still being able to be

productive in the half court set.

2008-09 Schedule

2008-09 Roster

In his fi rst season at the helm of

the scarlet and gray, Jeremy Luther

led the team to a 12-16 record and

tied for sixth in the South Atlantic

Conference. Clemente Martin was

named to the all-South Atlantic

Conference fi rst team, while Grant

Domsic was named to the SAC’s

all-freshman team.

Prior to Newberry, Luther spent

six seasons as an assistant coach

at Mercer University. While at the

Division I institution,

Luther was a key com-

ponent in the recruiting

of players from South

Carolina, Florida, and

Tennessee. Furthermore,

he was in charge of the

team strength and conditioning program, individual work-

outs, and the academic development of each student-athlete.

Luther was a part of the staff that won the fi rst ever regular

season championship in school history and also set the NCAA

record with the biggest turn around going from 6-23 to 23-6.

Before coming to Mercer, Luther had stints as a head coach

on the high school level at Windsor Academy in Macon, Ga.

While there, he led the team to their most victories in seven

years. Luther also has previous coaching experience in the state

of South Carolina when he was an assistant at North Green-

ville from 1998-2000. While at North Greenville, Luther was

in charge of the development of perimeter players and assisted

in the recruitment of players and the scouting of opponents.

Luther began his playing career at Robert Morris College

where he played from 1992-93. After the season, he trans-

ferred to Liberty University where he played for two seasons.

He would later transfer to Covenant College where he would

score 1,300 points in two seasons with the Scots.

Following his senior year, he was named an NAIA Division

II All-American after fi nishing fourth in the country in scor-

ing, averaging 26.0 ppg.

Luther and his wife Ginny, are the proud parents of a son,

Bryson who is 1.

Enthusiasm abounds around the Newberry

College men’s basketball program as the

scarlet and gray enter the 2008-09 season.

Head Coach Jeremy Luther enters his

second season at Newberry with one of the

greatest luxuries any head coach can have, as

Newberry will return all fi ve starters from the

2007-08 squad.

While that edition of the team fi nished

with a 12-16 overall record and a 5-9

South Atlantic Conference

mark, the room for massive

improvement is immediately

evident, as nine of those 16

losses were by six or fewer

points.

“I think the biggest

advantage of returning

all fi ve starters is that our

learning curve is much

smaller,” Luther said. “Last year, by the

time they got used to me and knew about

what I wanted and how I reacted and got

used to the new system and our tendencies,

it was mid-January. When they fi nally got it,

we were arguably one of the better teams in

the league.”

Leading the fi ve returning starters is senior

forward Clemente Martin – a fi rst team all-

South Atlantic Conference selection. Martin

broke the 1,000 career point barrier last

season, and led the team in scoring with 528

points for an average of 18.9 points per game.

He was second in the conference in scoring,

12th in the conference in rebounding (6.0

rpg), fourth in fi eld goal percentage (.567)

and won the SAC title in steals (2.36 spg).

Also returning is the team’s leading

rebounder, senior forward Stephane Bakinde.

Bakinde’s 6.5 rebounds per game led the

team, and he was second on the squad in

scoring with 11.3 points per game.

Senior point guard Vytautas Valiulis

returns after fi nishing third in the SAC in

assists with 4.4 assists per game, while

averaging 8.8 points. Also, senior guard

Matt Alexander returns after a solid junior

campaign in which he averaged 8.8 points,

4.4 rebounds and 2.93 assists per game.

Junior center Kendrick Johnson will look

to tack onto his school record for blocked

shots. Johnson should be one of the dominant

post defenders in the conference and looks

to continue to improve on offense. He was

second in the league with 93 blocked shots last

season (3.32 bpg), which set a single season

school record. His 134 career blocked shots

is already a Newberry College record, while

Johnson has only played in three semesters.

Players from the bench will include

sophomore guard Grant Domsic, who earned

SAC All-Freshman team honors last year

after averaging 10.5 points per game and

shooting 35.6 percent from behind the arc.

Senior forward Ty Overmyer should also be

a key contributor off the bench.

A solid group of transfers and freshmen will

also be looked to for immediate contributions.

At the top of that list is sophomore forward

Jesse Wheeler, a transfer from Gardner-Webb

University.

“Jesse has the potential to be the highest

impact player we’ve brought in this year,”

Luther said. “Jesse is very athletic and

competes every play. He has the ability to be

an all-conference type of player for us.”

“He can score from behind the arc, and is

also skilled in the post. He’s a solid all-around

player,” Luther added.

Also expected to make an impact is

redshirt freshman guard Charles Ndoloum. “If

I have to go small, we can put him out there

and he can do anything we need him to.”

Junir forward Brett Goodwell and

freshman point guard Will Dawkins are also

expected to see time on the fl oor.

All in all, it looks like the Newberry

College men’s basketball team has the pieces

in place to challenge for its fi rst SAC title.

From here, it’s all about how the scarlet and

gray can put those pieces together.

The Tusculum College men’s basketball

team will have a balanced blend of veteran

leadership and a wealth of talented newcomers

as the Pioneers tip-off the 2008-09 campaign.

Head coach Jim Boone returns seven

lettermen from a year ago, including three

starters from a team that posted a 13-15

overall record, fi nishing the season a strong

note by winning fi ve of its fi nal six regular

season contests.

Since his arrival in Greeneville, Coach

Boone’s teams have been amongst the league

leaders in team defense, including last year

as the Pioneers limited the opposition to 68.3

points per game, which was

best in the conference.

The Pioneers , who

finished fifth in the SAC

standings last season, return

All-SAC guard Kyle Moore

and one of the top point

guards in the league in

senior Ryan Troutman.

Moore averaged 16.6

points per game (7th in SAC), while shooting

42.3 percent from three-point territory. The

Pioneers led the league in team three-point

fi eld goal percentage and enter this season

with a streak of 581 consecutive games with

a three-point fi eld (every game since 1987).

The Winthrop University transfer proved

to be on the best free throw shooters in the

conference as well, gunning 84.5 percent from

the charity stripe (2nd in SAC), while dishing

four assists per contest (6th in SAC).

Troutman led the SAC in assists (5.21 apg

– 29th in NCAA II) and assist to turnover

margin (2.1 – 34th in NCAA II).

Wingate University head men’s basketball

coach Brian Good believes his team is ready

for the challenges of a new season. A former

student-athlete at Wisconsin, Good enters his

fi rst season with the Wingate program this

year.

Most recently, Good spent four seasons

as head men’s basketball coach at Queens

University of Charlotte. He led the Royals to

a 72-45 overall record, helping Queens make

back-to-back NCAA appearances in his fi nal

two seasons. Good enters a program with

recent NCAA post-season

success.

Wingate advanced to

the Elite Eight in 2007 and

the fi nal 32 in 2008. The

Bulldogs were the fi rst SAC

men’s basketball team to

participate in an NCAA

Division II Elite Eight

event.

The Bulldogs will miss guard/forward

Sean Barnette and forward/center Bryan

Grier, who both graduated to professional

basketball careers.

Two seniors will give the Bulldogs

exceptional leadership at the point guard

position: Rosco Turner and DeMario Mattox.

“I believe this will be a most interesting

competition,” Good notes. “Both Rosco

and DeMario bring different qualities to the

position.”

Mattox is Wingate’s top returning scorer

from last season. He averaged 7.4 points per

game during the 2007-08 campaign. Turner

led the Bulldogs in assists last year with

127. Mattox was second with 104 helpers.

Jamie Vaughn could potentially provide

assistance at the point guard spot.

Good believes the shooting guard spot

is “up for grabs.” He believes either Turner

or Mattox could play the two position while

the other takes care of the point guard duties.

Good feels this will ease the burden for both

student-athletes. Bulldog junior Larry Staley

will see time at both wing positions.

Two freshmen “have been the most pleasant

surprises of our pre-season workouts,” Good

says. Vaughn and Chase Smith give the

Bulldogs highly skilled backcourt support.

Junior Phil Jacobson and freshmen

Michael Bilal, D.J. Harrison and Ty Eason give

Wingate many options in the backcourt.

At the three position, redshirt junior David

Johnson “has been very good in pre-season

drills,” Good notes. “David can shoot the

ball and he is a good athlete.” In back-to-

back post-season games last year, Johnson

had 14 points against Newberry and 18

points against Mars Hill. Larry Staley “is

big enough and strong enough…we can use

him at both wing positions,” Good adds. Ben

Davis will also see time at the three spot for

the Bulldogs.

In the frontcourt, Good sees two distinct

groups. “We have two seniors and two

freshmen in the post,” Good says. “They

all have different games. It is a bonus for

us…they each bring different attributes to

the table.”

Senior Kenny Villines is the group’s

leader. “Kenny is a very steady player,” Good

notes. “He is a solid rebounder, defender and

scorer.” In 2007-08, Villines averaged 5.4

points per game and 5.0 rebounds per game.

His rebounding average was third on the team

charts behind Barnette and Grier.

Senior Tommy Coles “has been a very

pleasant surprise in the pre-season,” Good

says. “He is shooting the ball very well.”

Freshman Sam Mushman “is a very good

shooter,” Good asserts. “He is as good (a

shooter) as anyone on our team.” Mushman

will give opposing defenses a diffi cult time,

as he has great perimeter range. Classmate

Bradley VanStaalduinen “brings great energy

to our team,” Good says. “Once he gets

comfortable with the pace of the (college)

game, he will make a solid contribution.”

2008-09 Roster

Head Coach Shannon Reid comes

to Brevard after one year as the as-

sistant women’s basketball coach at

the University of Albany, a NCAA

Division I program in Albany, New

York.

While at Albany, Reid was in

charge of academics, scheduling

scouting and recruiting while her

on the court duties included guard

development and defensive strate-

gies and concepts.

Prior to heading north

and coaching at the Uni-

versity of Albany, Reid

spent two seasons at

Clayton State Univer-

sity in Morrow, Ga., where she helped lead the Lakers to the

2007 NCAA Division II Final Four. Clayton State fi nished

29-6 overall in 2006-07 and captured a Peach Belt Confer-

ence championship. The Lakers, who were ranked as high

as fourth nationally, made a second-consecutive trip to the

NCAA Tournament.

Prior to her appointment at Clayton State, Reid was an as-

sistant at the University of South Carolina-Aiken, a Division

II program in the Peach Belt Conference. Reid helped lead

the Pacers to a 19-13 record and an NCAA appearance.

Reid played professionally for the Ladies National League

in Dublin, Ireland from 2003-04. A native of Hudson, N.C.,

Reid earned her bachelor’s degree in sports management

from Pfeiffer University in 2003. Reid, a three-year member

of the Pfeiffer women’s basketball team, was named Caroli-

nas-Virginia Athletic Conference (CVAC) Player of the Year

and was a two-time all-CVAC fi rst-team honoree. Reid, who

scored more than 1,000 career points in her career for the

Falcons, led her team to its fi rst-ever NCAA Tournament. She

was a two-time team MVP and the university’s athlete of the

year.

BREVARD TORNADOS

49


The Brevard College women’s basketball

team has a new look in 2008-09 starting at

the top with fi rst year head coach Shannon

Reid. Coach Reid, who played at Pfeiffer

University and was an assistant coach at

Clayton State and University of Albany prior

to coming to Brevard, is instilling a new sense

of urgency and work ethic to a team that has

only four returners from last season.

Brevard College posted an 8-19 overall

record last season as provisional members

of both the NCAA Division II and the South

Atlantic Conference, with fi ve of those eight

wins coming at home in the friendly confi nes

of Boshamer Gymnasium.

The 2008-09 team is a

young one, as BC has only

four returners from last year

– Samantha Winn, Millie

Wharton, Amber Roberts

and Amanda Whitaker –

and has no senior on their

roster. In fact the Tornados

have 10 players that are

underclassman, with the only two juniors.

Coach Reid will look to returners Winn

and Wharton for leadership, as the two juniors

are the most experienced on the team. Last

season, the 5-10 Winn was one of only two BC

players to average double-digit points, as she

was second on the team with 10.0 points per

game. Winn, who started all 27 games on the

year, led the Tornados in fi eld goal percentage

shooting a blistering 49.7 percent from the

fi eld and was second on the team in rebounds

hauling in 4.9 per game at the small forward

position. Wharton, a 5-9 guard/forward

combo, played in all 27 games, starting 10 of

them, where she averaged 17.1 minutes per

contest. Wharton, who averaged 3.4 points per

game, will be asked to step up on the offensive

end in both scoring and leadership.

The two other lone returners, sophomores

Amber Roberts and Amanda Whitaker, will

both be asked to contribute more this season

and step in as leaders. Roberts came on

strong at the end of last season, starting fi ve

games. Playing at both of the guard positions,

Roberts played in all 27 games on the year,

averaging 2.7 points per game in a little over

13 minutes of action. Whitaker started 26 out

of 27 contests and was third on the team in

both points, 7.7 per game, and rebounds, 4.6

per game at the forward position. Whitaker

has the ability to score from both the inside

and outside and will be looked at as a primary

scoring option for the Tornados in 2008-09.

With eight newcomers the Tornados will

have a lot of learning to do on the fl y and

will look for a number of youngsters to

contribute immediately. Transfers Brianna

Worley and Micah LaJoie both come into

the BC program with some intercollegiate

experience. Worley will have to sit out the

season due to NCAA Division II transfer

rules. LaJoie, a 5-7 sophomore transfer from

McPherson College, will look to contribute

to the team immediately.

The other six newcomers, all of which

are freshmen – Anna Schlobohm, Holli

Flippo, Lindsay Brendle, Spring Drake, Paige

Bridgers and Kelly Hudler – will all be asked

to contribute immediately.

Schlobohm is a very physical and athletic

guard. Flippo is a 5-6 guard that has excellent

court awareness and strong perimeter skills.

Brendle is a versatile player that at 5-9 will see

time at both the guard and forward positions,

where she can use her quickness to attack the

basket off the dribble and her size to shoot

over defenders behind the three-point arc.

Drake, a 5-7 guard, is a high energy player

that will bring intensity on both ends of the

fl oor. Bridgers, a 5-8 guard, is a pure three-

point shooter that along with Drake will be

expected to bring much needed depth to

the guard position. Hudler, a 6-0 forward,

will bring much needed depth to the post

positions. She is a strong rebounder and has

great foot work down low in the post.

2007-08 Statistics

The 2008-’09 Carson-Newman Lady

Eagles basketball team will look to change

their pace under 7th year head coach Dean

Walsh. With a wealth of youth and new

faces, especially at the guard position, C-N

will move to a more “up tempo” style than

in previous seasons.

How the freshmen, as well as a pair of

transfers, mix in with four returning starters

will determine if Carson-Newman can make

a push for the South Atlantic Conference

title. Another key will be

close games. The Lady Ea-

gles lost six games by three

points or less in ’07-’08.

While the Lady Eagles

must replace posts Emily

Mason and Tashea Ledbet-

ter, six of last season’s top

seven scorers return, in-

cluding all of the key con-

tributors at guard.

Junior fi rst-team All-South Atlantic Con-

ference selection Shari Buford will anchor

the C-N post game. The forward and two-

year starter averaged 12 points and seven

boards per game a season ago, and could

benefi t the most from an quicker pace be-

cause of her ability to run the fl oor.

Seniors Ashley Tipton and Lindsay Egg-

leston joins Buford at the forward spots.

Tipton came up three points shy of aver-

aging double fi gures (9.9 ppg.) during her

junior year. The second-team All-South At-

lantic Conference selection is one of the na-

tion’s best three-point shooters, burying 48

percent (71-of-148) of her long-range tries

Shari BufordJunior forward

last season.

Eggleston can post up and face up, and

will pose match-ups problems for bigger de-

fenders. She averaged fi ve points per game

last season, in just over 13 minutes.

Freshman Zoriah Williams will also fac-

tor in. The 5’10 forward will give Walsh an-

other athletic option on the low block.

The Lady Eagles return all three of their

key guards from a season ago, including two

from injury. Senior Angela Volentine and ju-

nior Ashley Kyle are combo guards that are

expected to be full speed after both missed

time with knee injuries last season.

Volentine, who had 32 steals a season ago,

is a do-it-all guard that fi nished the season

averaging 10 points and fi ve boards. Kyle

will move to her natural position at the two

guard, and looks to benefi t from a growing

stronger and quicker in the offseason.

Senior Tykira McDaniel gives the Lady

Eagles a third veteran at the off guard sports.

McDaniel averaged six points and two re-

bounds and led the team with 33steals.

Sophomore Amber Blackwell returns af-

ter appearing in 24 games as a freshman.

She’ll push to take the reins of a wide-open

battle at the point guard spot. Three fresh-

men will fi ght Blackwell for the job.

Sha’Para Johnson and Lundyn Howard

are a pair of quick and athletic freshmen that

will push for the starting spot. Johnson is the

bigger scoring threat, while Howard manag-

es the offense and distributes the ball better.

Allison Whitenack is a third freshman point

guard who will push for time.

Junior college-transfer Liz Stringer will

give the lady Eagles an experienced shoot-

er at the shooting guard. She shot over 50

percent from behind the arc last season at

Cuyahoga C.C. Freshman Megan Hunter

will move to the off guard spot after scoring

over 1,700 points in high school playing the

point. The Lady Eagles also added Tennes-

see Tech-transfer Mandy Mendenhall, who

is expected to have an immediate impact

with her ability to shoot the three, rebound,

slash, and defend.

2007-08 Statistics

Catawba will have to overcome

the loss of four key players from last

season as the Lady Indians look to im-

prove on last season’s seventh-place

fi nish. The losses include the lone

All-South Atlantic Conference for

Catawba over the past two years in

NeKeithia Howard. The four, How-

ard, Cristi Bartlett, Sicilia LoSauro and

Hillary Hampton, com-

bined to start 87 games

last season.

Brittany Higgins is

the top returning scorer.

The senior averaged 9.2

points per game last sea-

son which increased to

10.8 in league contests.

She also pulled down 3.2 rebounds a

game.

Nisha Long and Cameron Clark,

who shared point guard duties, return

to a veteran back court. Long, who

missed some time with an ankle inju-

ry, averaged fi ve points, 2.5 rebounds

and 2.9 assists a contest. Clark tossed

in 4.6 points per game and was sec-

ond on the team with 19 three-point

goals. Kisha Long played in 27 of 28

games and averaged 3.4 points and re-

corded 16 steals. Newcomers to the

backcourt will be red-shirt freshman

Pamela Muldrow and freshman Jolysa

Connor.

The loss of Howard and Bartlett

and a career-ending back injury to Co-

rin Muldrow has left the ladies thin in

the post until the end of the fi rst semes-

ter. Senior Sara Crane, who averaged

2.4 points in limited action last season

with be joined by red-shirt freshman

Dana Hicks in December. Freshmen

Maggie Sullivan and Christina To-

scano will also give some depth in the

CATAWBA INDIANS

post.

Helping fi ll in the void at forward

will be returners Brooke Whitley and

Jennifer Dameron. Whitley made

six starts last season and scored at a

4.6 clip while grabbing 2.9 boards

per game. She also canned 16 three-

pointers. Dameron played in a dozen

games as a true freshman.

2008-09 Roster

Todd Starkey is beginning his

fourth year as Head Women’s Bas-

ketball Coach at Lenoir-Rhyne

College. Hired in August of 2005,

Starkey became the 10th coach in

program history.

Two years ago, the Bears im-

proved by six games from the 2005-

06 season to fi nish 16-12 overall and

9-7 in the South Atlantic Conference,

a mark good for fourth place. In ad-

dition, L-R also landed

two players on the All-

SAC teams. Amber

Holt received fi rst-team

accolades and was

named South Atlantic

Conference Freshman

Of The Year while De-

nise Moore earned second-team honors.

The squad went through some growing pains in his fi rst

season at the helm in 2005-06, fi nishing with a 10-18 mark

with a squad that did not have one single player recruited

under his wing.

Starkey has also been an Assistant Coach for the Bears’

Men’s Basketball Team for two seasons (2002-04), leading

the team to the 2003-04 SAC Regular Season Championship

and subsequent berth in the NCAA Division II Playoffs.

Starkey came to L-R in 2003 after coaching fi ve seasons

as an Assistant for the Men’s Basketball Team at Montreat

College (1998-03) where he helped the Cavaliers earn a berth

in the NAIA National Tournament during the 1999-00 season.

That same year, Montreat improved its win total from seven

to 22 games, the second-best improvement in the nation at

any level.

Starkey, a 1993 graduate of Montreat, played one year of

basketball for the Cavaliers after playing two seasons at Mars

Hill College.

Starkey and his wife, Jodi, reside in Hickory, N.C., and are

the proud parents of four children: Drew, Logan, Mackayla

and Brooke.

LENOIR-RHYNE BEARS

The Lenoir-Rhyne University women’s basketball team looks poised to bounce back this season and return to the upper echelon of the South Atlantic Conference. The Bears (15-13 overall and 5-9 in league play in 2007-08) tied for fifth overall in the standings as they tried to adjust to the premature loss of junior All-SAC center Denise Moore at the start of last school year. In addition to Moore’s return, Lenoir-Rhyne welcomes back all five starters for the second straight season under fourth-year mentor Todd Starkey. L-R is one of two teams in the SAC (conference-champion Tusculum is the other) to place three players on the all-league preseason squads. This team, deep and experienced, has the potential to make a run to the top. Moore’s absence was undoubtedly felt as the team looked to make up for losing a player who averaged 13.9 points and 8.1 rebounds per game two years ago. Junior center Jacquelyn Kremer, who averaged 8.6 points and 3.4 rebounds in 2007-08, put up a valiant effort last season as Moore’s main replacement. Forward Jackie Williams, the lone senior on the squad, is a quiet leader for the Bears who makes up for her scoring (4.1 ppg) with her rebounding (a team-leading 5.6 rpg), defense and overall athleticism.

Junior forward Kristen Fulmer has been one of the Bears’ top reserves the last two years. Fulmer (2.5 ppg and 2.3 rpg) not only gives L-R depth but could challenge for a starting spot. Although she plays forward, sophomore Abby Munn is known for her ability to hit three-pointers (18 in 2008). If Munn can improve in other areas, the Bears have a young player who can make a signifi cant impact. The same could be said for sophomore forward Erin Hanner. L-R is always looking to add depth to the frontcourt and this year is no exception with the addition of freshmen Amber Clark and Mary Covington and sophomore Ashley Pearson, a transfer from Alabama A&M. Lenoir-Rhyne once again has one of the best backcourts in the league headed up by junior guards Amber Holt and Jami Safrit, both preseason All-SAC honorees. Holt, a two-time, fi rst-team all-league selection, led the team in scoring (14.5 ppg) and assists (3.4 apg) last year and the added support this season should only make her better. Safrit continues to shine in all facets of the game, averaging 10.9 points, 4.5 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 2.7 steals in 2007-08. Safrit is one of the unquestioned leaders on the team and there is no denying her importance to the squad. Sophomore guard LaCourtney Rann was a pleasant surprise in her fi rst season on the court for the Bears. Rann fi nished second on the team in points (11.6 ppg). Junior guard Meredith Webster

continues to produce off the bench with her ability to shoot from long range. Leslie Conetta (Sarasota, Fla.) is another junior guard looking to see her playing time improve this year. Two highly-touted recruits – freshmen Whitley Culler and Cameron Sealey – will add to the mix as well.

morial University.

Smith, a native of Mt. Vernon,

Kentucky, comes to Lincoln Memo-

rial from Daytona Beach College in

Before taking over the helm at

Daytona Beach College, Smith

spent the 2003-04 season with

lege in Kansas. Her

duties at Cowley came

after serving as head

coach at Wabash Val-

ley College in Mt. Car-

Under the guidance of new head coach

Stephanie Smith and led by junior All-South

Atlantic Conference performer Andi Winney,

the 2008-2009 Lincoln Memorial University

women’s basketball team will look to make

marked improvement on last year’s 3-11

conference record.

Stephanie Smith brought in Christian

Papp as her lead assistant. Papp joins the

LMU team after spending the past four years

coaching at both Valparaiso University and,

most recently, Indiana University.

Rounding out Smith’s

staff are Tristan McCray,

who played at Bethune

Cookman , and Dawn

Skelcher, who remains with

the program for her eighth

season.

Smith will rely on junior

forward Andi Winney this

season. Winney, who led

the team in scoring and fi eld goal percentage,

averaged 14 points and 6.7 rebounds per

game while leading the conference in fi eld

goal percentage (66 percent). “Andi has really

impressed me with her work ethic and desire

to be a leader to the team,” says Smith. “Her

ambidexterity is a real advantage for a post

player and our post coach has called her the

best fi nisher he’s worked with. We’d like to

see Andi get to the free throw line more and

up her rebounding stats this year.”

Helping Winney will be returning

sophomore guard Stephanie Wagner. Wagner

was named to the SAC All-Freshman Team

after averaging 9.8 points and shooting 37

percent from the arc.

The Lady Railsplitters will have to replace

the scoring and rebounding of Shawna

Nichols and Heather Benton and will look to

the remainder of the cast to fi ll the holes. Sure

to help is senior guard Kara Harris (11.1 ppg).

Harris started 25 of the Lady Railsplitters’

28 games last year and will be looked to not

only for her scoring punch, but as a defensive

stopper for LMU. Megan Davis (6.7 ppg.

4.5 rpg.), a 6-0 forward also looks to be a

key contributor. “Megan provides us length

when defending on the perimeter. She’s a

competitor and took 21 charges last season.

It’s that type of sacrifi ce that will not only put

Megan into a position to play large minutes,

but help our team be the best they can be.”

Stephanie Smith has to be very excited

about the prospects for success within the

conference, as guard Amberly O’Dell will

be eligible to begin playing after the fi rst

semester. O’Dell, a transfer from Division

I Central Michigan, is a 5-6 sophomore that

was recruited hard by LMU during high

school. “Amberly can knock down the three

and get to the basket, but perhaps her greatest

attribute is her natural confi dence. When

she gets a few games under her belt she will

emerge as a force in the conference.”

Last year, the Lady Railsplitters had only

eight healthy players at many practices.

This year Smith looks to her team’s depth as

a strength. “We’re looking to push the ball

more and associate more excitement with

LMU women’s basketball. My teams have

always been up-tempo,” says Smith.

Among those having recovered from

injury and looking to contribute will be

returning forwards Bonnie DeBusk and Kelly

Youhas, as well as guards Whitney Vannoy,

Sarah Harrison, and Brittney Craney.

Coach Smith brought in several junior

college transfers over the summer that she

expects big things from, as well as signing

two freshman perimeters that will make the

team more athletic. “I’m not used to losing!”

says Smith. “I expect us to work as hard

as any team and to be competitive with the

top teams in the conference this year. We’re

going to improve on our fundamentals and

bring intensity to everything, whether it’s an

offensive possession or a defensive stop. As

far as team play goes, we want to maximize

the number of easy baskets we get in

transition. On defense, I’m big on pressure,

whether it’s with our half-court man-to-man

or pressing full court.”

The Lions’ women’s basketball team

ended the 2007-08 campaign 15-13 overall

and 5-8 in the South Atlantic Conference.

Even though the team finished with a

winning record, Coach Jennifer Nance was

not satisfi ed with a below .500 mark in the

league.

Injuries were a major factor in the Lions’

slipping in their success in the last half of the

season. The injuries did have a bright spot in

that several of the freshmen received playing

time that they may not have experienced if the

injuries had not taken place. Brittini Young,

Jocelyn Williams, and Bria Smith especially

benefi tted from this extra amount of playing

time. The good news was, the team, even

playing with young players in the last portion

of the SAC season competed

every night. Coach Nance

and new assistant coach

Brooke Wilkinson revamped

their preseason workouts to

better prepare the squad for a

stronger fi nish in 2009.

The goal for this season

is to again fi nish the year

with a winning overall

record and place in the top half of the fi nal

SAC standings. This year the Lions have the

personnel and depth to run the system Coach

Nance wants to perform, run and press. The

team also has four experienced seniors that

will provide the internal leadership required

for a successful team. All four of the seniors;

Jessica Blanford, Danielle Francis, Ariel

Okunowo and Mia Terry should contribute

and play valuable minutes.

Jocelyn Williams works hard in the weight

room and that has made her a strong player.

Over the past year she has become a very

good basketball player in large part to her

natural athletic ability. Jocelyn has worked

hard in the off season improving her ball-

handling skills and scoring with her back

to the basket. Blanford will move from

the wing to the post this year. She is a great

rebounder who can solidify post play early

in the season.

Libby Pattison returns after seeing action

last year as a freshman. Libby, a very

fundamental player, will add depth to the

post. Francis, another very strong player, has

improved her back to the basket moves and the

Lions are counting on her to contribute in the

paint. Megan Clevenger, a freshman, appears

a bit undersized for post play, but brings a

good knowledge of the game with her. Taylor

Deal, another freshman, will be a solid back to

the basket player for the Lions. Like Blanford,

Deal can jump out and hit shots from behind

the arc so that should help extend opponent’s

defenses. Shana Brookshire, a freshman, was

a guard in high school but will play a power

forward position for MHC this season.

Erica Warren, a freshman wing player, is

extremely athletic and has solid post moves

and a very quick fi rst step. She has the ability

to get to the basket and is expected to be a

great rebounder. Sophomore Jerusha Clark,

who suffered a season ending knee injury last

year, returns to the wing. Bria Smith, also a

sophomore, may be the nicest surprise to the

squad. Last year she was limited to just being

a 3-point threat. She has worked hard and

has learned the system, can drive to the basket

and defend. Okunowo, who is also coming off

knee surgery, will anchor wing play and has

a chance to be one of the Lions’ best scorers.

She is a solid perimeter shooter and can get

to the basket. Terry, the Lions’ most athletic

guard is a great rebounder. The team’s

smallest player led MHC in rebounding last

season.

Young is penciled in as the starting point

guard. Young may also be the team’s best

perimeter shooter. Narcissa Grayson, a

freshman, has good athleticism and good

court vision. She will have to learn our

system before she reaches her full potential.

The keys for MHC to reach their goals

will be staying healthy and how quickly the

team meshes. Another point of concern is

how quickly the freshmen learn and master

Coach Nance’s system.

The 2008-2009 Newberry College women’s

basketball team will be competing for their

third South Atlantic Conference championship

in four years and hope to make their fourth

NCAA Tournament appearance in fi ve years.

Last season, Newberry was knocked out

of the SAC tournament by the top seeded

Tusculum Pioneers. This season Newberry

has brought in Coach Sean Page to take the

team back to the top of the SAC.

Page comes to Newberry from Brescia

University where he took a

team that went 1-29 in the

05-06 season to 18-13 in

only two years.

This season’s roster is

full of experienced players

ready to make another run

at a SAC championship.

10 players are returning

to Newberry including

seven seniors, four of whom have NCAA

tournament experience.

In the backcourt, both of last seasons

starters, Janine Ward and Laura Marquardt,

will return to Newberry. Ward is coming off

a stellar year in which she led her team in

assists with 3.4 per game. She also ranked

second on the team in steals (1.6 per game)

and free throw percentage (.813). Last season

Marquardt put up solid numbers by leading

her team in free throw percentage (.830) and

ranked second in blocked shots (18).

The 2008-2009 season will also mark the

return of Monica Alexander, who sat out last

season. During the 06-07 season, Alexander

was third in the SAC in assists with 4.8 per

2007-08 Statistics

game. Alexander also shot 37 percent from

beyond the arc and averaged two steals.

Keena Phillips, Shonquilla Hudson, and

Mashanda Thomas will also be returning to

provide depth at the guard position.

In her fi rst season, Leanne Watson came

off the bench and quickly emerged as one of

Newberry’s best players. Watson ranked third

on her team in points per game (7.2), rebounds

per game (3.9), and blocked shots (5). Her solid

performance all season landed her a spot on the

SAC All-Freshman team.

Newberry fans will also see the return of

Cortney Snowden, who hasn’t played since

the 05-06 season and was an important player

on the 2006 SAC championship team. She

ranked third on the team in rebounds with 5.3

per game and also shot the ball effi ciently with

a .447 fi eld goal percentage. Also returning at

the forward/center position are Anita Bulcher,

Briana Johnson, and Sade Coates.

The scarlet and gray will also be joined by

four new recruits. The recruiting class includes

freshman Ondia Kelleyfrom Villa Rica (Ga.)

HS where she was named MVP and Defensive

Player of the Year in her senior season.

Also new to Newberry is Keisha

Henderson. While attending Blythewood

(S.C.) HS she was a two time Basketball

Coaches Association All-State honoree and

averaged four steals a game her fi nal year.

The third freshman is Amy Browne from

Caloundra St. HS in Australia. Browne was

a four-time All-State selection and was a

member of the All-Australian High School

team that went undefeated during a tour of

the United States in 2007.

Transfer Helen McKinney, a sophomore

from Brescia University, was a key player on

a team that won its conference and advanced

to the NAIA National Tournament. During

the 07-08 season, she averaged 15.5 points

and six rebounds a game.

Coach Page believes this team is ready for

the challenges in front of them and hopes to

bring home another conference championship

to Newberry College.

In just three seasons, head coach

Missy Tiber has resurrected the

storied Tusculum College women’s

nence, leading the Pioneers to three

consecutive winning seasons for the

fi rst time in over a decade. Since

her arrival at the Greeneville, Tenn.

sive 141-64 career re-

cord (.688) as her teams

have posted a winning

campaign in each of her

seven seasons, including

three with 20 or more

In 2007-08, the Pio-

neers enjoyed one of its fi nest seasons ever as Tusculum post-

ed a 26-5 record and won the program’s fi rst-ever South Atlan-

tic Conference Championship. TC mounted winning streaks

of 12 and 11 games as the Pioneers claimed its fi rst 20-win

season in 11 years, while garnering the school’s fi rst NCAA

to the WBCA All-America Team, becoming the fi rst women’s

basketball player at Tusculum to earne NCAA All-America

recognition. Tiber herself was honored by the WBCA, being

pers won three West Virginia Intercollegiate Athletic Confer-

ence (WVIAC) championships and four WVIAC Tournament

WINGATE BULLDOGS

Photo by Mike Slade

Erica

Crumlin

Wingate University head women’s bas-

ketball coach Barbara Nelson and her Bull-

dogs could not have written a more beau-

tiful script for Nelson’s fi rst season at the

Wingate helm…even if they hired a Holly-

wood script writer.

The Bulldogs advanced to the 2007-08

NCAA Division II Elite Eight as champi-

ons of the South Atlantic Region. Wingate

completed the 2007-08 season as the 10th-

ranked team in the country, according to

the USA Today/ESPN/WBCA Division II

Top 25 Coaches’ Poll. Wingate also won the

Food Lion South Atlantic Conference tour-

nament on the way to the Elite Eight.

Guards Kasey Gillis

and Kate Edwards were

the only seniors on the

2007-08 team. The duo

combined for 24 points per

game and led the Bulldogs

to four straight NCAA ap-

pearances.

Eleven of 14 letter-

winners will return for the

2008-09 campaign as the Bulldogs look to

make another post-season run.

Wingate’s 77.8 points per game last

season put the Bulldogs second on the SAC

scoring charts. On the boards, Wingate was

eighth in the league in rebounding margin.

The Bulldogs won the battle of the boards

only eight times during the 2007-08 season.

Bulldog senior point guard Anna Atkin-

son leads Wingate’s returning players. She

was named the SAC Player of the Year and

SAC Scholar Athlete. She was the MVP of

both the SAC tournament and South Atlantic

Region tournament. Atkinson fi nished in the

top fi ve in the nation in assists (8.3), assist-

to-turnover ratio (3.2) and steals (3.7), while

also leading the team in scoring (14.8).

The 2007-08 NCAA Division II Con-

ference Commissioners Association (CCA)

Female Scholar-Athlete of the Year Award

winner, Atkinson was an ESPN The Maga-

zine Academic All-America® fi rst team se-

lection last year. In addition, she earned third

team Daktronics All-American laurels on the

court. Atkinson was the SAC Athlete of the

Year and the SAC Presidents’ Award winner.

Freshmen Stephanie Whitenack and

Gladney Brown will spell Atkinson at the

point guard position. Whitenack gives the

Bulldogs a viable three-point threat, while

Brown gives Wingate a powerful and strong

presence in the backcourt.

At the shooting guard position, senior

Brittany West and sophomores CC Brooks

and Emily Parrish will battle for time. Whit-

enack will also be in the mix at the two guard

spot. West was third on the team in three-

pointers last season (21), while Brooks hit

six-of-eight from long distance during her

fi rst Bulldog season.

At the three position, Brown and fresh-

man classmate Kurie Washington will give

the Bulldogs an interesting dynamic. Wash-

ington is a McDowell High School product,

the alma mater of senior teammate Anna At-

kinson.

Senior Paige Mincey will also make a

valuable contribution at the three position.

Wingate is deep at the post positions, as

the entire unit returns intact for the 2008-09

season. Junior center Erica Crumlin led the

SAC with 2.65 blocks per game in 2007-08.

Sophomore forward Stefani Shuey averaged

10.6 points per game in the post-season last

year. Classmate Jessy Keitt is one of the top

defenders in the league.

Junior center Stacie Rhodes started 16

games last year; she fi nished second on the

team (to Crumlin) in blocked shots. Senior

Leslie Tucker and junior Sarah Rosser can

mix it up inside and step outside to hit the

three-pointer. Tucker played only eight

games last season due to injury. Freshman

forward Erin Fitzpatrick provides the Bull-

dogs with a solid rebounder in the paint.

WOMEN’S BASKETBALL POSTSEASON HISTORY

86


Catawba holds off Mars Hill HICKORY, N.C. -- Catawba nearly

saw a 19-point lead disappear in the fi nal

eight minutes, but held on to defeat Mars

Hill 54-52 to claim the championship of

the 2008 Food Loin South Atlantic Confer-

ence men’s basketball tournament on Sun-

day afternoon at the CVCC Multipurpose

Complex. The fourth-seeded Catawba

Indians (19-11) claim the league’s auto-

matic bid into the NCAA II South Atlan-

tic Regional. The sixth-seeded Lions end

their season at 14-16.

The Indians looked in control when

tournament MVP Antonio Houston put

Catawba on top 53-34 on a jumper with

8:14 left, but that would be the fi nal fi eld

goal for the Indians as the Lions would

reel off 18 straight points to close within

53-52 in the fi nal minute.

After Catawba grabbed the game’s

largest lead, Akeen Coakley scored fi ve

straight points for the Lions to pull Mars

Hill within 53-40 with 5:28 left. The Li-

ons converted three straight Catawba turn-

overs into six points to reduce the defi cit

to 53-46 with 4:25 to go.

A free throw by Tony Blake and a steal

and layup by Stoney Polite closed the gap to

53-49 with 3:19 left. A three-point play by

Jordan Skinner brought the Lions within a

point at 53-52 with 38 seconds left. Catawba

would suffer its eighth turnover in the fi nal

fi ve minutes on the ensuing inbounds play,

but Mars Hill failed to cash in.

Donald Rutherford made the fi rst of

two free throws with 27 seconds remain-

ing to give Catawba a 54-52 lead. Mars

Hill called a timeout with eight seconds to

play to set up a fi nal play, but Polite would

lose the ball before getting off a shot and

Catawba took the two-point victory.

Catawba fi nished the game with 31

turnovers, but helped force 26 from the

Lions. The Indians held a 38-24 edge on

the boards.

Houston was the only Catawba player

to reach double fi gures with 14 points.

The sophomore added six rebounds and

fi ve assists. Freshman Dominick Reid,

who joined Houston on the all-tourna-

ment team had eight points and six re-

bounds. Making the all-tournament team

for Mars Hill was Polite (15 points) and

Jamarl Glen (18 points). Wingate’s Sean

Barnette rounded out the team.

Catawba built an early 22-10 following

a three-point play by Rob Fields with 11

minutes left in the fi rst half. The Indians

would go cold over the next fi ve minutes

and Mars Hill clawed within 22-16 before

Houston’s jumper at the 6:13 mark. The

Loins would go nearly four minutes from

there without a point as Catawba moved

ahead 26-16.

Catawba led 32-22 at the break. The

Lions hit on just seven-of-22 (31.8 per-

cent) in the opening half and were one-of-

nine from behind the arc.

The win is the sixth SAC Tourna-

ment title for Catawba in seven trips to

the championship game. The Indians fi rst

loss came last year to Wingate. Catawba

will also be making their fourth regional

appearance in fi ve years.

“For 34 minutes, our defense was as

good as it’s been all year. We were in

charge and then, boom, it was gone. Our

CATAWBA 54, MARS HILL 52

youth kicked in and then we started feeling

sorry for ourselves,” said Catawba coach

Jim Baker. “You talk about swings in mo-

mentum, well that was about as good a

swing in all of college basketball. We are

glad, tickled to win, but a little relieved,

too.”

“We were going for the win and shoot

the three,” Mars Hill coach Tery Rogers

said of the last play. “Because of the over-

time game last night and the time change,

we were pretty well spent. I don’t know

if we had enough for another overtime

game.”

dogs, going fi ve-of-six from beyond the

arc. Freshman forward Stefani Shuey

added a career-high 15 points and 10 re-

bounds for her fi rst career double-double.

Sophomore center Erica Crumlin also

posted a double-double with 13 points and

10 rebounds. Crumlin blocked three shots,

including a crucial rejection in the waning

moments.

Wingate junior point guard Anna At-

kinson added 13 points and seven assists.

The 2008 SAC Player of the Year, Atkin-

son was named the MVP of the tourna-

ment. Edwards was also named to the all-

tournament team.

Tusculum junior guard Ashli Oliver led

the Pioneers with a game-high 22 points,

while hitting six-of-11 three point attempts.

TC junior guard Nikki Van Dine added 17

points and eight rebounds. Sophomore

forward Stephany Neptune had 14 points

and 12 rebounds. Oliver and TC freshman

point guard Jasmine Gunn earned all-tour-

nament honors, along with Newberry Col-

lege senior forward Tonique Frasier.

Ashli Oliver drained a three to give

Tusculum a 74-71 lead at the 1:12 mark.

Wingate responded, getting a three from

Atkinson to tie the game with 52 seconds

remaining. The Bulldogs then forced a

turnover, setting up Gillis to hit the game-

winners.

Tusculum had two close-range shots

in the last 10 seconds, but neither con-

nected. Crumlin blocked the second try to

preserve the Bulldog victory.

The Bulldogs were 28-of-64 (43.8

percent) from the fi eld, while going eight-

of-12 from beyond the arc (66.7 percent).

Tusculum was 24-of-65 (36.9 percent)

from the fl oor, while hitting nine-of-27

three point attempts (33.3 percent). The

Pioneers were 17-of-18 (94.4 percent)

from the free throw stripe, while the Bull-

dogs were 12-for-15 (80 percent).

Wingate held a 42-36 rebounding ad-

vantage, thanks in large part to double-

digit rebounds by Crumlin and Shuey. The

Bulldogs also held a 34-20 edge in points

in the paint and a 17-8 advantage in fast-

break points.

“Today’s game could have gone either

way. I think our team’s are so similar, it

is a hard matchup for each team,” said

Wingate coach Barbara Nelson.

“We weren’t going to panic,” Nelson

said about the fi nal minute of the game. “A

minute and eight seconds is a long time.

We usually run that play for Kate Edwards,

and everybody knows it, so it may have

confused them that we had Anna Atkinson

running it. Early in the game, she (Atkin-

son) might have missed it, but in crunch

time, she wants the ball in her hands.”

“It was a great college basketball game.

It was a pretty fun game to watch. I’ll be

glad when it airs to 40 million viewers be-

cause we represented our school and our

conference well,” said Tusculum coach

Missy Tiber. “Our kids are extremely dis-

appointed right now. But we played this

hard in a championship game and didn’t

shoot well, so I think we’ll be in good

shape for next week.”
