'drEaMs do CoME truE'

“You coach this sport with a dream to get to the NCAA tournament... athletes play this sport with a dream to reach the NCAA tournament... and here at Eastern Illinois University ... dreams do come true!”

That quote was delivered by head coach rick samuels to a cheering throng of fans in Lantz Arena as they welcomed home the Mid-Continent Conference tournament champion Panthers, who advanced to the NCAA Division I tournament for the first time in school history.

Five seniors, the heart-and-soul of the team, knocked off Wright State in the first round, upset heavily favored regular-season champion Wisconsin-Green Bay in the semifinals, and then controlled the game from the outset to defeat Illinois-Chicago in the title game of the tournament.

The five seniors were Barry Johnson, three-time Honorable Mention All-Midwest; steve rowe, tournament MVP; dave olson, most prolific three point shooter in Mid-Con history; kavien Martin, team leader as the point guard; and rod Mckinnis, who provided the inspiration after a season ending knee injury.

The team was honored by Governor Jim Edgar (EIU Class of ’68), the state legislature at the Illinois capital building, as well as welcomed by the Charleston community and members of the University.

The Panthers lost to the Indiana Hoosiers, an eventual 'Final Four' participant, in the first round of the West Regional in Boise, Idaho.

Entering its60thyear, theOhioValleyConferencecontinues to build on the success that has made it thenation’seighth-oldestNCAADivisionIconference. TheOVC’sproudpastdatesbackto1948,butseedsforthenewleaguewereactuallyplantedin1941.Itwasthen that Roy Stewart, the athletics director at MurrayState, Charles (Turkey) Hughes, the athletics directorat Eastern Kentucky, and Kelly Thompson, the publicrelations director at Western Kentucky, first broached the ideaofforminganewconference.DiscussionswereputonholdbyWorldWarII,butreemergedFeb.27-28,1948at theKentuckyHotel inLouisvilleas thethreeoriginalinstitutions combined with Morehead State, LouisvilleandEvansvilletoformtheOVC. Inthe1950’s,theOVCbecameapioneeronamuchmore significant scale socially. During times of racial segregation, league member Morehead State becameone of the first non-traditionally black mid-southern institutions to accept ablack student.

In 1955, the OVC became only the second six-member league nationally to earn an automatic bid tothe prestigious NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament,which, at that time,was limited toonly24participants.The conference quickly proved worthy of that bid, asMorehead State defeated Marshall (107-92) and WayneState(95-84)inthe1956tournament. Fifteen years later, former OVC member WesternKentucky became the first and only conference team to reach the Final Four. The Hilltoppers defeatedJacksonville, Kentucky and Ohio State before losing toVillanova in double overtime. WKU went on to finish in thirdplaceafterbeatingKansas77-75intheconsolationgame. Sincethattime,theOVChasrecordedsomeofthebiggest upsets in the history of the NCAATournament.Perhaps the most famous moment came in 1987, whenAustin Peay came from fourth place in the regularseasontowintheOVCTournamentandearntheleague’sautomaticbid.TheGovernorsdrewpowerfulIllinois,and
